Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhenlong Xu, Ziqi Xu, Jixue Liu, Debo Cheng, Jiuyong Li | Summary: The increasing application of machine learning techniques in everyday decision-making processes has brought concerns about the fairness of algorithmic decision-making. This paper concerns the problem of collider bias which produces spurious associations in fairness assessment […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Camilo González-Ruilova, Lucas A. Cieza, Antonio S. Hales, Sebastián Pérez, Alice Zurlo | Summary: ISO-Oph 2 is a wide-separation (240 au) binary system where the primary star harbors a massive (M$_{dust}$ $sim$40 M$_{oplus}$) ring-like disk with a dust cavity $sim$50 au in radius and the secondary […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yingjie Peng | First 5 Authors: Jing Dou, Yingjie Peng, Alvio Renzini, Luis C. Ho, Filippo Mannucci | Summary: Star formation and quenching are two of the most important processes in galaxy formation and evolution. We explore in the local Universe the interrelationships among key integrated galaxy properties, including stellar mass $M_*$, star […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Logan Francis, Doug Johnstone, Gregory Herczeg, Todd R. Hunter, Daniel Harsono | Summary: A diverse array of science goals require accurate flux calibration of observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter array (ALMA), however, this goal remains challenging due to the stochastic time-variability of the “grid” quasars ALMA […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jiansheng Chen | First 5 Authors: Yiqing Huang, Jiansheng Chen, , , | Summary: Existing image captioning models are usually trained by cross-entropy (XE) loss and reinforcement learning (RL), which set ground-truth words as hard targets and force the captioning model to learn from them. However, the widely adopted training strategies suffer from […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Min Fang, Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Jinyoung Serena Kim, Krzysztof Findeisen, Gregory J. Herczeg | Summary: We present a spectroscopic survey of over 3400 potential members in the North America and Pelican nebulae (NAP) using several low-resolution ($Rapprox$ 1300-2000) spectrographs: Palomar/Norris, WIYN/HYDRA, Keck/DEIMOS, and MMT/Hectospec. We identify […]
Kavli Affiliate: Li Xin Li | First 5 Authors: Qian Ning, Weisheng Dong, Guangming Shi, Leida Li, Xin Li | Summary: Deep neural networks (DNNs) based methods have achieved great success in single image super-resolution (SISR). However, existing state-of-the-art SISR techniques are designed like black boxes lacking transparency and interpretability. Moreover, the improvement in visual […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Yong-Hee Lee, Doug Johnstone, Jeong-Eun Lee, Gregory Herczeg, Steve Mairs | Summary: While young stellar objects sometimes undergo bursts of accretion, these bursts usually occur sporadically, making them challenging to study observationally and to explain theoretically. We build a schematic description of cyclical bursts of the young […]
Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Weixiang Sun, Yang Huang, Haifeng Wang, Chun Wang, Meng Zhang | Summary: Using a sample of nearly 140,000 primary red clump stars selected from the LAMOST and $Gaia$ surveys, we have identified a large sample of "young" [$alpha$/Fe]-enhanced stars with stellar ages younger than 6.0 Gyr and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rainer Spurzem | First 5 Authors: Francesco Paolo Rizzuto, Thorsten Naab, Rainer Spurzem, Mirek Giersz, J. P. Ostriker | Summary: Young dense massive star clusters are a promising environment for the formation of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) through collisions. We present a set of 80 simulations carried out with Nbody6++GPU of 10 […]
