Kavli Affiliate: Dan Luo | First 5 Authors: Dan Luo, Chengyuan Ma, Weiqin Li, Jun Wang, Wei Chen | Summary: With the advancement of speech synthesis technology, users have higher expectations for the naturalness and expressiveness of synthesized speech. But previous research ignores the importance of prompt selection. This study proposes a text-to-speech (TTS) framework […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel C. Ralph | First 5 Authors: Bozo Vareskic, Finn G. Kennedy, Takashi Taniguchi, Kenji Watanabe, Kenji Yasuda | Summary: We fabricate and measure electrically-gated tunnel junctions in which the insulating barrier is a sliding van der Waals ferroelectric made from parallel-stacked bilayer hexagonal boron nitride and the electrodes are single-layer graphene. Despite […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Feng Wang, Yi-Bao Zhang, Ping-Fan Yang, Heng-Dong Xi, | Summary: Investigations into the effects of polymers on small-scale statistics and flow patterns were conducted in a turbulent von Karman swirling (VKS) flow. We employed the tomographic particle image velocimetry (Tomo-PIV) technique to obtain full information on three-dimensional […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Xu Huang, Bowen Deng, Peichen Zhong, Aaron D. Kaplan, Kristin A. Persson | Summary: The rapid development of universal machine learning interatomic potentials (uMLIPs) has demonstrated the possibility for generalizable learning of the universal potential energy surface. In principle, the accuracy of uMLIPs can be further […]
Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Alberto Tosato, Asser Elsayed, Federico Poggiali, Lucas Stehouwer, Davide Costa | Summary: Large-scale integration of semiconductor spin qubits into industrial quantum processors hinges on the ability to characterize the performance of quantum components at scale. While the semiconductor industry has addressed scalable testing for transistors using device […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: Sammy Christen, David Müller, Agon Serifi, Ruben Grandia, Georg Wiedebach | Summary: Teleoperated robotic characters can perform expressive interactions with humans, relying on the operators’ experience and social intuition. In this work, we propose to create autonomous interactive robots, by training a model to imitate operator data. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrei Faraon | First 5 Authors: Alexey Tiranov, Emanuel Green, Sophie Hermans, Erin Liu, Federico Chiossi | Summary: Optically addressable solid-state spins have been extensively studied for quantum technologies, offering unique advantages for quantum computing, communication, and sensing. Advancing these applications is generally limited by finding materials that simultaneously provide lifetime-limited optical and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Andrea Rodriguez-Blanco, Ho Nam Nguyen, K. Birgitta Whaley, , | Summary: Practical quantum computation heavily relies on the ability to perform quantum error correction in a fault-tolerant manner. Fault-tolerant encoding is a critical first step, and careful consideration of the error correction cycle that follows is essential […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Isidora Araya Day, Antonio L. R. Manesco, Michael Wimmer, Anton R. Akhmerov, | Summary: The easily accessible experimental signatures of Majorana modes are ambiguous and only probe topology indirectly: for example, quasi-Majorana states mimic most properties of Majoranas. Establishing a correspondence between an experiment and a theoretical […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Peng Yang, Junji Ren, Feng Wang, Ke Tang, | Summary: The fidelity of financial market simulation is restricted by the so-called "non-identifiability" difficulty when calibrating high-frequency data. This paper first analyzes the inherent loss of data information in this difficulty, and proposes to use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test […]
