Pureformer-VC: Non-parallel One-Shot Voice Conversion with Pure Transformer Blocks and Triplet Discriminative Training

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Wenhan Yao, Zedong Xing, Xiarun Chen, Jia Liu, Yongqiang He | Summary: One-shot voice conversion(VC) aims to change the timbre of any source speech to match that of the target speaker with only one speech sample. Existing style transfer-based VC methods relied on speech representation disentanglement and […]

Influence of planets on debris discs in star clusters — II. The impact of stellar density

Kavli Affiliate: Rainer Spurzem | First 5 Authors: Kai Wu, M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, Francesco Flammini Dotti, Rainer Spurzem, | Summary: We present numerical simulations of planetary systems in star clusters with different initial stellar densities, to investigate the impact of the density on debris disc dynamics. We use LPS+ to combine N-body codes NBODY6++GPU […]

Discovering Dark Matter with the MUonE Experiment

Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Gordan Krnjaic, Duncan Rocha, Isaac R. Wang, , | Summary: The MUonE experiment aims to extract the hardonic contribution the muon anomalous magnetic moment from a precise measurement of the muon-electron differential scattering cross section. We show that MUonE can also discover thermal relic dark matter using […]

Broad-line Region of the Quasar PG 2130+099. II. Doubling the Size Over Four Years?

Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Zhu-Heng Yao, Sen Yang, Wei-Jian Guo, Yong-Jie Chen, Yu-Yang Songsheng | Summary: Over the past three decades, multiple reverberation mapping (RM) campaigns conducted for the quasar PG 2130+099 have exhibited inconsistent findings with time delays ranging from $sim$10 to $sim$200 days. To achieve a comprehensive understanding […]

VisionTS: Visual Masked Autoencoders Are Free-Lunch Zero-Shot Time Series Forecasters

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Mouxiang Chen, Lefei Shen, Zhuo Li, Xiaoyun Joy Wang, Jianling Sun | Summary: Foundation models have emerged as a promising approach in time series forecasting (TSF). Existing approaches either fine-tune large language models (LLMs) or build large-scale time-series datasets to develop TSF foundation models. However, these methods […]
