Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Li Jun, Li Jun, , , | Summary: Partially Relevant Video Retrieval (PRVR) addresses the critical challenge of matching untrimmed videos with text queries describing only partial content. Existing methods suffer from geometric distortion in Euclidean space that sometimes misrepresents the intrinsic hierarchical structure of videos and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: In the fields of quantum mechanics and quantum information science, the traces of reduced density matrix powers play a crucial role in the study of quantum systems and have numerous important applications. In this paper, we propose a universal framework to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Anjiang Wei, Anjiang Wei, , , | Summary: Optimizing parallel programs for distributed heterogeneous systems remains a complex task, often requiring significant code modifications. Task-based programming systems improve modularity by separating performance decisions from core application logic, but their mapping interfaces are often too low-level. In this […]

Strittmatter | Summary: Fibrils of misfolded α-synuclein (α-syn) accumulate in Parkinson’s disease and other synucleinopathies, spreading between cells to template further misfolding and drive neurodegeneration. α-syn fibril entry into healthy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Luchuan Song, Luchuan Song, , , | Summary: We propose StreamME, a method focuses on fast 3D avatar reconstruction. The StreamME synchronously records and reconstructs a head avatar from live video streams without any pre-cached data, enabling seamless integration of the reconstructed appearance into downstream applications. This […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gary A. Steele | First 5 Authors: Roudy Hanna, Roudy Hanna, , , | Summary: Improvements in circuit design and more recently in materials and surface cleaning have contributed to a rapid development of coherent superconducting qubits. However, organic resists commonly used for shadow evaporation of Josephson junctions (JJs) pose limitations due to […]

Kavli Affiliate: Steven W. Allen | First 5 Authors: Zhefu Yu, Zhefu Yu, , , | Summary: X-ray reverberation, which exploits the time delays between variability in different energy bands as a function of Fourier frequency, probes the structure of the inner accretion disks and X-ray coronae of active galactic nuclei. We present a systematic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Calvin Leung, Calvin Leung, , , | Summary: Low redshift fast radio bursts (FRBs) provide robust measurements of the host-galaxy contribution to the dispersion measure (DM), which can constrain the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of the hosts. We curate a sample of 20 nearby FRBs with low […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Ran Wang, Ran Wang, , , | Summary: Structured decoding enables large language models (LLMs) to generate outputs in formats required by downstream systems, such as HTML or JSON. However, existing methods suffer from efficiency bottlenecks due to grammar compilation, state tracking, and mask creation. We observe […]
