Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Kangli Wang, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Learning-based point cloud compression methods have made significant progress in terms of performance. However, these methods still encounter challenges including high complexity, limited compression modes, and a lack of support for variable rate, which restrict the practical application of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Adarsh Salagame, Shashwat Pandya, Ioannis Mandralis, Eric Sihite, Alireza Ramezani | Summary: Multi-rotors face significant risks, as actuator failures at high altitudes can easily result in a crash and the robot’s destruction. Therefore, rapid fault recovery in the event of an actuator failure is necessary for the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Yuming Huang, Wei Gao, Zhiyuan Zhang, Maani Ghaffari, Dezhen Song | Summary: OpenStreetMap (OSM) has gained popularity recently in autonomous navigation due to its public accessibility, lower maintenance costs, and broader geographical coverage. However, existing methods often struggle with noisy OSM data and incomplete sensor observations, leading […]
Kavli Affiliate: Katja C. Nowack | First 5 Authors: Ruiheng Bai, Aliakbar Sepehri, Yen-Lee Loh, Anne-Marie Valente-Feliciano, Anna Herr | Summary: We use scanning superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) microscopy to image vortices in superconducting strips fabricated from NbTiN thin films. We repeatedly cool superconducting strips with different width in an applied magnetic field and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gregory D. Fuchs | First 5 Authors: Maciej W. Olszewski, Jadrien T. Paustian, Tathagata Banerjee, Haoran Lu, Jorge L. Ramirez | Summary: Magnetic impurities are known to degrade superconductivity. For this reason, physical vapor deposition chambers that have previously been used for magnetic materials have generally been avoided for making high-quality superconducting resonator […]

Kavli Affiliate: David A. Muller | First 5 Authors: Harikrishnan KP, Varun Harbola, Jaehong Choi, Kevin J. Crust, Yu-Tsun Shao | Summary: Modern electromechanical actuators and sensors rely on the piezoelectric effect that linearly couples strain and electric polarization. However, this effect is restricted to materials that lack inversion symmetry. In contrast, the flexoelectric effect […]

Kavli Affiliate: Ting Xu | First 5 Authors: Yanlin Xiang, Qingyuan He, Ting Xu, Ran Hao, Jiacheng Hu | Summary: This study proposes a 3D semantic segmentation method for the spine based on the improved SwinUNETR to improve segmentation accuracy and robustness. Aiming at the complex anatomical structure of spinal images, this paper introduces a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Thomas R. Beauchamp, Hana Jirovská, Scarlett Gauthier, Stephanie Wehner, | Summary: We propose an architecture for scheduling network operations enabling the end-to-end generation of entanglement according to user demand. The main challenge solved by this architecture is to allow for the integration of a network schedule with […]
