Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Huizhen Shu, Huizhen Shu, , , | Summary: With the rapid proliferation of Natural Language Processing (NLP), especially Large Language Models (LLMs), generating adversarial examples to jailbreak LLMs remains a key challenge for understanding model vulnerabilities and improving robustness. In this context, we propose a new black-box […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao| Summary:Conventionally, human intuition defines vision as a modality of passive optical sensing, relying on ambient light to perceive the environment. However, active optical sensing, which involves emitting and receiving signals, offers unique advantages by capturing both radiometric and geometric properties of the environment, independent of external illumination conditions. This work focuses […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: While ride-hailing services offer increased travel flexibility and convenience, persistent nighttime safety concerns significantly reduce women’s willingness to use them. Existing research often treats women as a homogeneous group, neglecting the heterogeneity in their decision-making processes. To address this gap, this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Eric D. Siggia | Authors: Dillon J. Cislo, M Joaquina Delás, James Briscoe and Eric D. Siggia | Summary: The development of a zygote into a functional organism requires that this single progenitor cell gives rise to numerous distinct cell types. Attempts to exhaustively tabulate the interactions within developmental signaling networks that coordinate […]
Kavli Affiliate: Paul D. Asimow | Summary:The Europa Clipper mission will arrive at the Jovian system in 2030 and analyze ice grains sourced from the icy material on its surface using impact mass spectrometry, which will provide key constraints on Europa’s chemical composition and habitability. However, deriving quantitative compositional information from spaceborne impact mass spectra […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Sukhad Dnyanesh Joshi, Sukhad Dnyanesh Joshi, , , | Summary: Leveraging our structure-adaptive topology optimization framework based on the integration of the photonic density of states over a frequency window for the TM polarization of light [see A. Bahulikar et al., arXiv:2411.09165 (2025)], we show that the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Haowen Wang, Haowen Wang, , , | Summary: In this paper, we address a key scientific problem in machine learning: Given a training set for an image classification task, can we train a generative model on this dataset to enhance the classification performance? (i.e., closed-set generative data […]
Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Yun Wang, Yun Wang, , , | Summary: Video Large Language Models (Video-LLMs) excel at general video understanding but struggle with long-form videos due to context window limits. Consequently, recent approaches focus on keyframe retrieval, condensing lengthy videos into a small set of informative frames. Despite their […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Ziyu Liu, Ziyu Liu, , , | Summary: Self-supervised learning (SSL) for multivariate time series mainly includes two paradigms: contrastive methods that excel at instance discrimination and generative approaches that model data distributions. While effective individually, their complementary potential remains unexplored. We propose a Contrastive Generative Time […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Crommie | Summary:We report Coulomb drag studies in an electron-hole bilayer graphene heterostructure in a magnetic field, where the orbital, spin, and valley degrees of freedom are lifted by the combined effects of exchange interaction, Zeeman energy, and vertical displacement field. Our device enables the application of a large vertical displacement field […]
