Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Yixin Li, Yixin Li, , , | Summary: Differentiable rendering has been widely adopted in computer graphics as a powerful approach to inverse problems, enabling efficient gradient-based optimization by differentiating the image formation process with respect to millions of scene parameters. Inspired by this paradigm, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yukinobu Toda | First 5 Authors: Tudor Pădurariu, Tudor Pădurariu, , , | Summary: We introduce limit categories for cotangent stacks of smooth stacks as an effective version of classical limits of categories of D-modules on them. We develop their general theory and pursue their relation with categories of D-modules. In particular, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Yang Sun, Yang Sun, , , | Summary: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) incorporates external knowledge into large language models (LLMs), improving their adaptability to downstream tasks and enabling information updates. Surprisingly, recent empirical evidence demonstrates that injecting noise into retrieved relevant documents paradoxically facilitates exploitation of external knowledge […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Houxing Ren, Houxing Ren, , , | Summary: The code generation capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) have advanced applications like tool invocation and problem-solving. However, improving performance in code-related tasks remains challenging due to limited training data that is verifiable with accurate test cases. While Direct […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cynthia F. Moss | Authors: Gowri Somasekhar, Ninad B Kothari, Cynthia F Moss and Melville Wohlgemuth | Summary: To successfully execute natural tasks, animals must continuously monitor and integrate dynamic sensory information to guide behavior. While this process – known as active sensing – is fundamental to goal-directed behavior, the mechanisms by which […]

A […]
Kavli Affiliate: Philip Starr | Authors: Abhinav Sharma, Bahman Abdi Sargezeh, Amelia Hahn, Maria Shcherbakova, Wolf Julian Neumann, Simon Little, Philip Starr and Ashwini Oswal | Summary: Background: Bradykinesia in Parkinson′s disease (PD) may arise due to transient, network–wide neural dynamics that extend beyond beta–band oscillatory activity within the motor cortical-subthalamic nucleus (STN) circuit. Methods: […]
Kavli Affiliate: Winrich Freiwald | Authors: Geena R Ianni, Yuriria Vazquez, Adam G Rouse, Marc Schieber, Yifat Prut and Winrich Freiwald | Summary: Successful communication requires the generation and perception of a shared set of signals. Facial gestures are one fundamental set of communicative behaviors in primates, generated through the dynamic arrangement of dozens of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Adam S. Charles and Patrick Kanold | Authors: Liang Xiang, Mingxuan Wang, Patrick O. Kanold and Adam Charles | Summary: Neural population activity is often stereotyped into recurring activity patterns, i.e., neural motifs, which can be seen as the fundamental building blocks in sensory processing and cognition. In this work we study the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Xin Li | First 5 Authors: Ziyi Ni, Ziyi Ni, , , | Summary: Beyond scratch coding, exploiting large-scale code repositories (e.g., GitHub) for practical tasks is vital in real-world software development, yet current benchmarks rarely evaluate code agents in such authentic, workflow-driven scenarios. To bridge this gap, we introduce GitTaskBench, a […]
