Robust Detection of Brain Stimulation Artifacts in iEEG Using Autoencoder-Generated Signals and ResNet Classification

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Jeremy Saal, Ankit N. Khambhati, Edward F. Chang and Prasad Shirvalkar | Summary: Background Intracranial EEG (iEEG) is crucial for understanding brain function, but stimulation-induced noise complicates data interpretation. Traditional artifact detection methods require manual user input or struggle with noise variability, especially with limited labeled data. Objective We […]

Nonlinearity of transparent SNS weak links decreases sharply with length

Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Valla Fatemi, Pavel D. Kurilovich, Anton R. Akhmerov, Bernard van Heck, | Summary: Superconductor-normal material-superconductor (SNS) junctions are being integrated into microwave circuits for fundamental and applied research goals. The short junction limit is a common simplifying assumption for experiments with SNS junctions, but this limit […]
