FreezeAsGuard: Mitigating Illegal Adaptation of Diffusion Models via Selective Tensor Freezing

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Kai Huang, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Text-to-image diffusion models can be fine-tuned in custom domains to adapt to specific user preferences, but such unconstrained adaptability has also been utilized for illegal purposes, such as forging public figures’ portraits and duplicating copyrighted artworks. Most existing work […]

Arresting Quantum Chaos Dynamically in Transmon Arrays

Kavli Affiliate: Debanjan Chowdhury | First 5 Authors: Rohit Mukherjee, Haoyu Guo, Keiran Lewellen, Debanjan Chowdhury, | Summary: Ergodic quantum many-body systems evolving under unitary time dynamics typically lose memory of their initial state via information scrambling. Here we consider a paradigmatic translationally invariant many-body Hamiltonian of interacting bosons — a Josephson junction array in […]

Gravitational-wave dark siren cosmology systematics from galaxy weighting

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel E. Holz | First 5 Authors: Alexandra G. Hanselman, Aditya Vijaykumar, Maya Fishbach, Daniel E. Holz, | Summary: The detection of GW170817 and the measurement of its redshift from the associated electromagnetic counterpart provided the first gravitational wave determination of the Hubble constant ($H_0$), demonstrating the potential power of standard-siren cosmology. In […]

On the contribution of dwarf galaxies to reionization of the Universe

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Zewei Wu, Andrey Kravtsov, , , | Summary: We present estimates of the ultraviolet (UV) and Lyman continuum flux density contributed by galaxies of luminosities from $M_{rm UV}approx -25$ to $M_{rm UV}=-4$ at redshifts $5leq zleq 10$ using a galaxy formation model that reproduces properties of local […]

From traces to measures: Large language models as a tool for psychological measurement from text

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Joseph J. P. Simons, Wong Liang Ze, Prasanta Bhattacharya, Brandon Siyuan Loh, Wei Gao | Summary: Digital trace data provide potentially valuable resources for understanding human behaviour, but their value has been limited by issues of unclear measurement. The growth of large language models provides an opportunity […]

From traces to measures: Large language models as a tool for psychological measurement from text

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Joseph J. P. Simons, Wong Liang Ze, Prasanta Bhattacharya, Brandon Siyuan Loh, Wei Gao | Summary: Large language models are increasingly being used to label or rate psychological features in text data. This approach helps address one of the limiting factors of digital trace data – their […]
