The Mass Dependence of Hα Emission and Stellar Spindown for Fully Convective M Dwarfs

Kavli Affiliate: David Charbonneau | First 5 Authors: Emily K. Pass, David Charbonneau, David W. Latham, Perry Berlind, Michael L. Calkins | Summary: Fully convective M dwarfs typically remain rapidly rotating and magnetically active for billions of years, followed by an abrupt and mass-dependent transition to slow rotation and quiescence. A robust understanding of this […]

Uncertainty-aware No-Reference Point Cloud Quality Assessment

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Songlin Fan, Zixuan Guo, Wei Gao, Ge Li, | Summary: The evolution of compression and enhancement algorithms necessitates an accurate quality assessment for point clouds. Previous works consistently regard point cloud quality assessment (PCQA) as a MOS regression problem and devise a deterministic mapping, ignoring the stochasticity […]

JustiLM: Few-shot Justification Generation for Explainable Fact-Checking of Real-world Claims

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Fengzhu Zeng, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Justification is an explanation that supports the veracity assigned to a claim in fact-checking. However, the task of justification generation is previously oversimplified as summarization of fact-check article authored by fact-checkers. Therefore, we propose a realistic approach to generate […]

Optical-parametric-amplification-enhanced background-free spectroscopy

Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Mingchen Liu, Robert M. Gray, Arkadev Roy, Luis Ledezma, Alireza Marandi | Summary: Traditional absorption spectroscopy has fundamental difficulty in resolving small absorbance from strong background due to the instability of laser sources. Existing background-free methods in broadband vibrational spectroscopy help to alleviate this problem but face […]
