Revealing abrupt transitions from goal-directed to habitual behavior

Kavli Affiliate: Kishore V. Kuchibhotla, Adam S. Charles | Authors: Sharlen Moore, Zyan Wang, Ziyi Zhu, Ruolan Sun, Angel Lee, Adam Charles and Kishore V Kuchibhotla | Summary: A fundamental tenet of animal behavior is that decision-making involves multiple ‘controllers.’ Initially, behavior is goal-directed, driven by desired outcomes, shifting later to habitual control, where cues […]

Mapping general anesthesia states based on electro-encephalogram transition phases

Kavli Affiliate: Jeanne Paz | Authors: Virginie Loison, Yuliya Voskobiynyk, Britta Lindquist, Deanna Necula, Dan Longrois, Jeanne T. Paz and David Holcman | Summary: Cortical electro-encephalography (EEG) has become the clinical reference for monitoring unconsciousness during general anesthesia. The current EEG-based monitors classify general anesthesia states simply as underdosed, adequate, or overdosed, with no transition […]

Emergence of brain-like mirror-symmetric viewpoint tuning in convolutional neural networks

Kavli Affiliate: Winrich Freiwald | Authors: Amirhossein Farzmahdi, Wilbert Zarco, Winrich Freiwald, Nikolaus Kriegeskorte and Tal Golan | Summary: Primates can recognize objects despite 3D geometric variations such as in-depth rotations. The computational mechanisms that give rise to such invariances are yet to be fully understood. A curious case of partial invariance occurs in the […]

Photometric observations of flares on AD Leo from GWAC-F30 and TESS

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jian-Ying Bai, Jing Wang, Hua-Li Li, Li-Ping Xin, Guang-Wei Li | Summary: We observed active M dwarf star AD Leo for 146 hr in photometry by GWAC-F30 and also analyzed 528-hr photometric data of the star from TESS. A total of 9 and 70 flares are detected […]

The Postdoc Accord in Theoretical High Energy Physics

Kavli Affiliate: Lina Necib | First 5 Authors: Djuna Croon, Patrick J. Fox, Roni Harnik, Simon Knapen, Mariangela Lisanti | Summary: We present the results of a survey meant to assess the opinion of the high-energy physics theory (HET) community on the January 7th postdoc acceptance deadline – specifically, whether there is a preference to […]

Continuum Reverberation Mapping of Mrk 876 Over Three Years With Remote Robotic Observatories

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Jake A. Miller, Edward M. Cackett, Michael R. Goad, Keith Horne, Aaron J. Barth | Summary: Continuum reverberation mapping probes the sizescale of the optical continuum-emitting region in active galactic nuclei (AGN). Through 3 years of multiwavelength photometric monitoring in the optical with robotic observatories, we perform […]
