Visible Yet Unreadable: A Systematic Blind Spot of Vision Language Models Across Writing Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Ting Xu | First 5 Authors: Jie Zhang, Jie Zhang, , , | Summary: Writing is a universal cultural technology that reuses vision for symbolic communication. Humans display striking resilience: we readily recognize words even when characters are fragmented, fused, or partially occluded. This paper investigates whether advanced vision language models (VLMs) share […]

Role of Fe intercalation on the electronic correlation in resistively switchable antiferromagnet Fe$_x$NbS$_2$

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Wenxin Li, Wenxin Li, , , | Summary: Among the family of intercalated transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), Fe$_x$NbS$_2$ is found to possess unique current-induced resistive switching behaviors, tunable antiferromagnetic states, and a commensurate charge order, all of which are tied to a critical Fe doping of $x_c$ […]

RadGS-Reg: Registering Spine CT with Biplanar X-rays via Joint 3D Radiative Gaussians Reconstruction and 3D/3D Registration

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Ao Shen, Ao Shen, , , | Summary: Computed Tomography (CT)/X-ray registration in image-guided navigation remains challenging because of its stringent requirements for high accuracy and real-time performance. Traditional "render and compare" methods, relying on iterative projection and comparison, suffer from spatial information loss and domain gap. […]

Molecular polariton dynamics in realistic cavities

Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | Summary:The large number of degrees of freedom involved in polaritonic chemistry processes considerably restricts the systems that can be described by any ab initio approach, due to the resulting high computational cost. Semiclassical methods that treat light classically offer a promising route for overcoming these limitations. In this work, we […]

Tunable Superconducting Quantum Interference Device Coupler for Fluxonium Qubits

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | Summary:Tunable couplers enable high-fidelity two-qubit gates leveraging high on/off coupling ratios and reduced crosstalk within a single design. We investigate a galvanically connected direct-current superconducting quantum interference device (dc SQUID) as a minimal tunable coupling element for fluxonium qubits. Comparing grounded and floating fluxonium designs, we find that the latter […]
