Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Feng Wang, Manling Li, Xudong Lin, Hairong Lv, Alexander G. Schwing | Summary: Recent advances in pre-training vision-language models like CLIP have shown great potential in learning transferable visual representations. Nonetheless, for downstream inference, CLIP-like models suffer from either 1) degraded accuracy and robustness in the case […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael F. Crommie | First 5 Authors: Jinwoong Hwang, Yeongrok Jin, Canxun Zhang, Tiancong Zhu, Kyoo Kim | Summary: The spontaneous formation of electronic orders is a crucial element for understanding complex quantum states and engineering heterostructures in two-dimensional materials. We report a novel $sqrt{19}timessqrt{19}$ charge order in few-layer thick 1T-TaTe$_2$ transition metal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wolfgang Tittel | First 5 Authors: Bruno Huttner, Romain Alléaume, Eleni Diamanti, Florian Fröwis, Philippe Grangier | Summary: A recently published patent (https://www.ipo.gov.uk/p-ipsum/Case/PublicationNumber/GB2590064) has claimed the development of a novel quantum key distribution protocol purporting to achieve long-range quantum security without trusted nodes and without use of quantum repeaters. Here we present a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | First 5 Authors: Fiona Mukherjee, Anye Shi, Xin Wang, Fengqi You, Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary: Identifying and removing microplastics (MPs) from the environment is a global challenge. This study explores how the colloidal fraction of common MPs behave at aqueous interfaces of liquid crystal (LC) films. We observed […]

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Yoseob Yoon, Zuocheng Zhang, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Sefaattin Tongay | Summary: Ultrafast charge transfer processes provide a facile way to create interlayer excitons and to generate single-cycle THz pulses in directly contacted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers. More sophisticated heterostructures composed of TMD/hBN/TMD can enable new […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Huiyuan Yang, Taoyue Wang, Xiaotian Li, Lijun Yin | Summary: Recent studies utilizing multi-modal data aimed at building a robust model for facial Action Unit (AU) detection. However, due to the heterogeneity of multi-modal data, multi-modal representation learning becomes one of the main challenges. On […]

However, the heterogeneity of multi-modal data poses challenges in learning effective representations. One such challenge is extracting […]
Kavli Affiliate: Katja C. Nowack | First 5 Authors: Alexander Jarjour, G. M. Ferguson, Brian T. Schaefer, Menyoung Lee, Yen Lee Loh | Summary: A growing number of two-dimensional superconductors are being discovered in the family of layered van der Waals (vdW) materials. Due to small sample volume, their characterization has been largely limited to […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Avishek Das, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: We use a nonequilibrium variational principle to optimize the steady-state, shear-induced interconversion of self-assembled nanoclusters of DNA-coated colloids. Employing this principle within a stochastic optimization algorithm allows us to discover design strategies for functional materials. We find […]
