Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Brendan P. Crill, Yoonsoo P. Bach, Sean A. Bryan, Jean Choppin de Janvry, Ari J. Cukierman | Summary: We describe the SPHEREx Sky Simulator, a software tool designed to model science data for NASA’s SPHEREx mission that will carry out a series of all-sky spectrophotometric surveys […]
Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: Lucas N. Alegre, Agon Serifi, Ruben Grandia, David Müller, Espen Knoop | Summary: Reinforcement learning (RL) has significantly advanced the control of physics-based and robotic characters that track kinematic reference motion. However, methods typically rely on a weighted sum of conflicting reward functions, requiring extensive tuning to […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Seokjin Moon, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: We study diffusion-controlled processes in nonequilibrium steady states, where standard rate theory assumptions break down. Using transition path theory, we generalize the relations between reactive probability fluxes and measures of the rate of the reaction. Stochastic thermodynamics […]

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: D. Dominic Briseño-Colunga, Bibek Bhandari, Debmalya Das, Long B. Nguyen, Yosep Kim | Summary: Modern superconducting and semiconducting quantum hardware use external charge and microwave flux drives to both tune and operate devices. However, each external drive is susceptible to low-frequency (e.g., $1/f$) noise that can drastically […]

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Lucas E. A. Stehouwer, Merrit P. Losert, Maia Rigot, Davide Degli Esposti, Sara Martí-Sánchez | Summary: Electron spin qubits in Si/SiGe quantum wells are limited by the small and variable energy separation of the conduction band valleys. While sharp quantum well interfaces are pursued to increase the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ting Xu | First 5 Authors: Ting Xu, Zhichao Huang, Jiankai Sun, Shanbo Cheng, Wai Lam | Summary: We present Sequential Policy Optimization for Simultaneous Machine Translation (SeqPO-SiMT), a new policy optimization framework that defines the simultaneous machine translation (SiMT) task as a sequential decision making problem, incorporating a tailored reward to enhance […]
Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Xuan Zhang, Cunxiao Du, Sicheng Yu, Jiawei Wu, Fengzhuo Zhang | Summary: Due to the auto-regressive nature of current video large language models (Video-LLMs), the inference latency increases as the input sequence length grows, posing challenges for the efficient processing of video sequences that are usually very […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Zijie Qiu, Jiaqi Wei, Xiang Zhang, Sheng Xu, Kai Zou | Summary: De novo peptide sequencing is a critical task in proteomics. However, the performance of current deep learning-based methods is limited by the inherent complexity of mass spectrometry data and the heterogeneous distribution of noise signals, […]
