Kavli Affiliate: Jiansheng Chen | First 5 Authors: Weitao Wan, Jiansheng Chen, Cheng Yu, Tong Wu, Yuanyi Zhong | Summary: The softmax cross-entropy loss function has been widely used to train deep models for various tasks. In this work, we propose a Gaussian mixture (GM) loss function for deep neural networks for visual classification. Unlike […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Farhad Pourpanah, Moloud Abdar, Yuxuan Luo, Xinlei Zhou, Ran Wang | Summary: Generalized zero-shot learning (GZSL) aims to train a model for classifying data samples under the condition that some output classes are unknown during supervised learning. To address this challenging task, GZSL leverages semantic information of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Guilherme Limberg, Silvia Rossi, Timothy C. Beers, Hélio D. Perottoni, Angeles Pérez-Villegas | Summary: We analyze the dynamical properties of $sim$1500 very metal-poor (VMP; [Fe/H] $lesssim -2.0$) halo stars, based primarily on medium-resolution spectroscopic data from the HK and Hamburg/ESO surveys. These data, collected over the past […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yasunori Nomura | First 5 Authors: Yasunori Nomura, , , , | Summary: We portray the structure of quantum gravity emerging from recent progress in understanding the quantum mechanics of an evaporating black hole. Quantum gravity admits two different descriptions, based on Euclidean gravitational path integral and a unitarily evolving holographic quantum system, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Takeo Higuchi | First 5 Authors: Satoshi Higashino, Yuichiro Mori, Yosuke Takubo, Takeo Higuchi, Akimasa Ishikawa | Summary: The technique of weak value amplification, proposed by Aharonov et al. in 1988, has been applied for various fields of physics for the purpose of precision measurement, which is made possible by exploiting the freedom […]

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Renxin Xu, Xiaoyu Lai, Chengjun Xia, , | Summary: What if normal baryonic matter is compressed so tightly that atomic nuclei come into close contact? This question has been asked since 1930s. The fist answer was presented by Lev Landau whose speculation has been developed, and the […]
Kavli Affiliate: David P. Huenemoerder | First 5 Authors: Joy S. Nichols, Yael Naze, David P. Huenemoerder, Anthony F. J. Moffat, Nathan Miller | Summary: Analysis of the recent long exposure Chandra X-ray observation of the early-type O star zeta Pup shows clear variability with a period previously reported in optical photometric studies. These 813 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hirosi Ooguri | First 5 Authors: Nathan Benjamin, Christoph A. Keller, Hirosi Ooguri, Ida G. Zadeh, | Summary: Motivated by the search for rational points in moduli spaces of two-dimensional conformal field theories, we investigate how points with enhanced symmetry algebras are distributed there. We first study the bosonic sigma-model with $S^1$ target […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael D. Gladders | First 5 Authors: Gourav Khullar, Katya Gozman, Jason J. Lin, Michael N. Martinez, Owen S. Matthews Acuña | Summary: We report the discovery of COOL J1241+2219, a strongly-lensed galaxy at redshift $z$=5.043$pm$0.002 with observed magnitude $z_{AB}=20.47$, lensed by a moderate-mass galaxy cluster at $z$=1.001$pm$0.001. COOL J1241+2219 is the brightest […]
