Cell type-specific barcoding reveals the projectional architecture of the mouse midbrain dopaminergic system

Posted by dbos Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Justus M Kebschull | Authors: Hyopil Kim, Cheng Xu, Craig Washington, Maggie Lowman and Justus M Kebschull | Summary: Brain-wide neural circuits are formed by the diverse axonal branching patterns of many individual neurons. Here we introduce POlNTseq (projections of interest by sequencing), a high-throughput and user-friendly barcoded connectomics method that uses cell […]

Odd-even parity dependent transport in an annular Kitaev chain

Posted by klaurent UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Gang Su | First 5 Authors: Wei Wang, Wei Wang, , , | Summary: We investigate the impact of magnetic flux and the odd-even parity of lattice points $N$ on electron transport in an annular Kitaev chain, with an explanation provided from the energy band perspective. Three transport mechanisms including direct transmission (DT), […]

Efficient Branch-and-Bound for Submodular Function Maximization under Knapsack Constraint

Posted by klaurent UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yimin Hao, Yimin Hao, , , | Summary: The submodular knapsack problem (SKP), which seeks to maximize a submodular set function by selecting a subset of elements within a given budget, is an important discrete optimization problem. The majority of existing approaches to solving the SKP are […]

Asymptotically Optimal Repair of Reed-Solomon Codes with Small Sub-Packetization under Rack-Aware Model

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Ke Wang, , , | Summary: This paper presents a comprehensive study on the asymptotically optimal repair of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes with small sub-packetization, specifically tailored for rack-aware distributed storage systems. Through the utilization of multi-base expansion, we introduce a novel approach that leverages monomials […]

EquiContact: A Hierarchical SE(3) Vision-to-Force Equivariant Policy for Spatially Generalizable Contact-rich Tasks

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Joohwan Seo, Joohwan Seo, , , | Summary: This paper presents a framework for learning vision-based robotic policies for contact-rich manipulation tasks that generalize spatially across task configurations. We focus on achieving robust spatial generalization of the policy for the peg-in-hole (PiH) task trained from a small […]

Digital defocus aberration interference for automated optical microscopy

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Changhuei Yang | Summary:Automation in optical microscopy is critical for enabling high-throughput imaging across a wide range of biomedical applications. Among the essential components of automated systems, robust autofocusing plays a pivotal role in maintaining image quality for both single-plane and volumetric imaging. However, conventional autofocusing methods often struggle with implementation complexity, limited […]
