Kavli Affiliate: Anqi Zhang| Summary:While large language models (LLMs) are extensively used, there are raising concerns regarding privacy, security, and copyright due to their opaque training data, which brings the problem of detecting pre-training data on the table. Current solutions to this problem leverage techniques explored in machine learning privacy such as Membership Inference Attacks […]
Kavli Affiliate: Anqi Zhang| Summary:Class Incremental Semantic Segmentation~(CISS), within Incremental Learning for semantic segmentation, targets segmenting new categories while reducing the catastrophic forgetting on the old categories.Besides, background shifting, where the background category changes constantly in each step, is a special challenge for CISS. Current methods with a shared background classifier struggle to keep up […]
Kavli Affiliate: G. Ravichandran| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:We show that various recent algorithms for finite-domain constraint satisfaction problems (CSP), which are based on solving their affine integer relaxations, do not solve all tractable and not even all Maltsev CSPs. This rules them out as candidates for a universal polynomial-time CSP […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrei Faroan | Summary:Microwave-to-optical transduction of single photons will play an essential role in interconnecting future superconducting quantum devices, with applications in distributed quantum computing and secure communications. Various transducers that couple microwave and optical modes via an optical drive have been developed, utilizing nonlinear phenomena such as the Pockels effect and a […]
Kavli Affiliate: N. C. Yeh| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:We present DiffIR2VR-Zero, a zero-shot framework that enables any pre-trained image restoration diffusion model to perform high-quality video restoration without additional training. While image diffusion models have shown remarkable restoration capabilities, their direct application to video leads to temporal inconsistencies, and existing […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Roukes | Summary:Fingerprint analysis is a ubiquitous tool for pattern recognition with applications spanning from geolocation and DNA analysis to facial recognition and forensic identification. Central to its utility is the ability to provide accurate identification without an a priori mathematical model for the pattern. We report a data-driven fingerprint approach for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ali Hajimiri | Summary:Emerging technologies that employ quantum physics offer fundamental enhancements in information processing tasks, including sensing, communications, and computing. Here, we introduce the quantum phased array, which generalizes the operating principles of phased arrays and wavefront engineering to quantum fields, and report the first quantum phased array technology demonstration. An integrated […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | Summary:A quantum interface between microwave and optical photons is essential for entangling remote superconducting quantum processors. To preserve fragile quantum states, a transducer must operate efficiently while generating less than one photon of noise referred to its input. Here, we present a platform that meets these criteria, utilizing a combination […]
Kavli Affiliate: G. Ravichandran| First 5 Authors: [#item_custom_name[1, [#item_custom_name[2, [#item_custom_name[3, [#item_custom_name[4, [#item_custom_name[5| Summary:We establish an equivalence between two important random ensembles of linear codes: random linear codes (RLCs) and random Reed-Solomon (RS) codes. Specifically, we show that these models exhibit identical behavior with respect to key combinatorial properties — such as list-decodability and list-recoverability — […]
Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | Summary:Architected materials derive their properties from the geometric arrangement of their internal structural elements. Their designs rely on continuous networks of members to control the global mechanical behavior of the bulk. Here, we introduce a class of materials that consist of discrete concatenated rings or cage particles interlocked in three-dimensional […]
