Kavli Affiliate: Harry Atwater | First 5 Authors: Komron Shayegan, Bo Zhao, Yonghwi Kim, Shanhui Fan, Harry Atwater | Summary: Nonreciprocal elements are a vital building block of electrical and optical systems. In the infrared regime, there is a particular interest in structures that break reciprocity because their thermal absorptive (and emissive) properties should not […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Jeff Delaune, Jacob Izraelevitz, Samuel Sirlin, David Sternberg, Louis Giersch | Summary: Mid-Air Helicopter Delivery (MAHD) is a new Entry, Descent and Landing (EDL) architecture to enable in situ mobility for Mars science at lower cost than previous missions. It uses a jetpack to slow down a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Hao Liu, Hui Yuan, Junhui Hou, Raouf Hamzaoui, Wei Gao | Summary: We propose a generative adversarial network for point cloud upsampling, which can not only make the upsampled points evenly distributed on the underlying surface but also efficiently generate clean high frequency regions. The generator of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Wei Gao, David Hsu, Wee Sun Lee, , | Summary: An inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) agent learns to act intelligently by observing expert demonstrations and learning the expert’s underlying reward function. Although learning the reward functions from demonstrations has achieved great success in various tasks, several other […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Zhenfeng He, Yuqiang Han, Zhenqiu Ouyang, Wei Gao, Hongxu Chen | Summary: Medication recommendation is a crucial task for intelligent healthcare systems. Previous studies mainly recommend medications with electronic health records(EHRs). However, some details of interactions between doctors and patients may be ignored in EHRs, which are […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Chunyang Fu, Ge Li, Rui Song, Wei Gao, Shan Liu | Summary: In point cloud compression, sufficient contexts are significant for modeling the point cloud distribution. However, the contexts gathered by the previous voxel-based methods decrease when handling sparse point clouds. To address this problem, we propose […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Xianghao Zang, Ge Li, Wei Gao, , | Summary: In video surveillance, pedestrian retrieval (also called person re-identification) is a critical task. This task aims to retrieve the pedestrian of interest from non-overlapping cameras. Recently, transformer-based models have achieved significant progress for this task. However, these models […]
Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Alkim Bozkurt, Chaitali Joshi, Mohammad Mirhosseini, , | Summary: Optomechanical crystals provide coupling between phonons and photons by confining them to commensurate wavelength-scale dimensions. We present a new concept for designing optomechanical crystals capable of achieving unprecedented coupling rates by confining optical and mechanical waves to deep […]
Kavli Affiliate: Austin J. Minnich | First 5 Authors: Peishi S. Cheng, Shi-Ning Sun, Alexander Y. Choi, Austin J. Minnich, | Summary: High-field charge transport in semiconductors is of fundamental interest and practical importance. While the ab initio treatment of low-field transport is well-developed, the treatment of high-field transport is much less so, particularly for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Rana X. Adhikari | First 5 Authors: Jonathan W. Richardson, Swadha Pandey, Edita Bytyqi, Tega Edo, Rana X. Adhikari | Summary: Squeezed light is critical in gravitational-wave detection for reaching sensitivities below the standard quantum limit. Achieving the quantum noise targets of third-generation detectors will require 10 dB of squeezing as well as […]
