Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Robert Wheatley, Catherine J. Grier, Patrick B. Hall, W. N. Brandt, Jonah Lotz | Summary: We present the results of an investigation of a highly variable CIV broad absorption-line feature in the quasar SBS 1408+544 (z=2.337) that shows a significant shift in velocity over time. This source […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Z. Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Christopher J. Shallue, Julian B. Muñoz, Gordan Z. Krnjaic, , | Summary: We study the cosmological impact of warm, dark-sector relic particles produced as Hawking radiation in a primordial-black-hole-dominated universe before big bang nucleosynthesis. If those dark-sector particles are stable, they would survive to the present […]
Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Chloe Loughridge, Qinyi Sun, Seth Ahrenbach, Federico Cassano, Chuyue Sun | Summary: We introduce DafnyBench, the largest benchmark of its kind for training and evaluating machine learning systems for formal software verification. We test the ability of LLMs such as GPT-4 and Claude 3 to auto-generate enough […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Wei Ding, Fanhong Li, Ziteng Ji, Zhengrong Xue, Jia Liu | Summary: We propose AToM-Bot, a novel task generation and execution framework for proactive robot-human interaction, which leverages the human mental and physical state inference capabilities of the Vision Language Model (VLM) prompted by the Affective Theory […]
Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Minjin Kim, Suyeon Son, Luis C. Ho, , | Summary: We investigate the optical variability of low-redshift ($0.15< zleq0.4$) active galactic nuclei using the multi-epoch data from the Zwicky Transient Facility. We find that a damped random walk model well describes the ensemble structure function in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Boy Lankhaar, Susanne Aalto, Clare Wethers, Javier Moldon, Rob Beswick | Summary: High resolution (0."037-0."13 [10-35 pc]) e-MERLIN ($lambda6-18$ cm) and (0."024 [6.5 pc]) ALMA ($lambda 1.1$ mm) observations have been used to image OH (hydroxyl) and H$_2$CO (formaldehyde) megamaser emission, and HCN 3->2 emission towards the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salman Habib | First 5 Authors: Katrin Heitmann, Thomas Uram, Nicholas Frontiere, Salman Habib, Adrian Pope | Summary: In this paper we describe the set of “New Worlds Simulations”, three very large cosmology simulations, Qo’noS, Vulcan, and Ferenginar, that were carried out on the Summit supercomputer with the Hardware/Hybrid Cosmology Code, HACC. The […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yining Shi, Kun Jiang, Ke Wang, Kangan Qian, Yunlong Wang | Summary: 3D occupancy prediction (Occ) is a rapidly rising challenging perception task in the field of autonomous driving which represents the driving scene as uniformly partitioned 3D voxel grids with semantics. Compared to 3D object detection, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yining Shi, Jiusi Li, Kun Jiang, Ke Wang, Yunlong Wang | Summary: Vision-centric occupancy networks, which represent the surrounding environment with uniform voxels with semantics, have become a new trend for safe driving of camera-only autonomous driving perception systems, as they are able to detect obstacles regardless […]
