Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Gianluca Lagnese, Federica Maria Surace, Sid Morampudi, Frank Wilczek, | Summary: Distinguishing whether a system supports alternate low-energy (locally stable) states — stable (true vacuum) versus metastable (false vacuum) — by direct observation can be difficult when the lifetime of the state is very long but otherwise […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wesley Thompson | Authors: Junting Ren, Robert John Loughnan, Bohan Xu, Wesley K. Thompson and Chun Chieh Fan | Summary: Zero-inflated outcomes are very common in behavioral data, particularly for responses to psychological questionnaires. Modeling these challenging distributions is further exacerbated by the absence of established statistical models capable of characterizing total signals […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Aojun Zhou, Ke Wang, Zimu Lu, Weikang Shi, Sichun Luo | Summary: Recent progress in large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 and PaLM-2 has brought significant advancements in addressing math reasoning problems. In particular, OpenAI’s latest version of GPT-4, known as GPT-4 Code Interpreter, shows remarkable performance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Yu Wang, Sofya Alexeeva, Feng Wang, Ling Liu, Yong Wu | Summary: Utilizing a simplified quantum model approach, the low-energy inelastic collision processes between yttrium atoms (ions) and hydrogen atoms have been studied. Rate coefficients corresponding to the mutual neutralization, ion-pair formation, excitation, and de-excitation processes for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Tonghui Peng, Wei Gao, Ya Wu, Yulong Ma, Shiwu Zhang | Summary: With the wide application of electric energy storage component arrays, such as battery arrays, capacitor arrays, inductor arrays, their potential safety risks have gradually drawn the public attention. However, existing technologies cannot meet the needs […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Hong Li, Xingyu Li, Pengbo Hu, Yinuo Lei, Chunxiao Li | Summary: While the field of multi-modal learning keeps growing fast, the deficiency of the standard joint training paradigm has become clear through recent studies. They attribute the sub-optimal performance of the jointly trained model to the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhenyu Ni, Jing Wang, Liying Kang, , | Summary: For a simple graph $F$, let $mathrm{EX}(n, F)$ and $mathrm{EX_{sp}}(n,F)$ be the set of graphs with the maximum number of edges and the set of graphs with the maximum spectral radius in an $n$-vertex graph without any copy […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ethan Bier | Authors: Leonardo Lima, Mateus Berni, Jamile Mota, Daniel Bressan, Alison Julio, Robson Cavalcante, Vanessa Macias, Zhiqian Li, Jason L. Rasgon, Ethan Bier and Helena Marcolla Araujo | Summary: Rhodnius prolixus is currently the model vector of choice for studying Chagas disease transmission, a debilitating disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi parasites. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ali Hajimiri | First 5 Authors: Oren S. Mizrahi, Austin Fikes, Alan Truong, Fabian Wiesemüller, Sergio Pellegrino | Summary: Large apertures in space are critical for high-power and high-bandwidth applications spanning wireless power transfer (WPT) and communication, however progress on this front is stunted by the geometric limitations of rocket flight. Here, we […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Li Chen, Feng Wang, Yingrui Wang, Peng Huo, Yuqi Li | Summary: Thermal effect is essential to regulate the interfacial instabilities for diverse technology applications. Here we report the fingering instability at the propagation front for a spreading liquid film subjected to the supercooling at the vertical […]
