Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Yipei Zhang, Philippe Lewalle, K. Birgitta Whaley, , | Summary: We generalize the projection-based quantum measurement-driven $k$-SAT algorithm of Benjamin, Zhao, and Fitzsimons (BZF, arxiv:1711.02687) to arbitrary strength quantum measurements, including the limit of continuous monitoring. In doing so, we clarify that this algorithm is a particular […]
Kavli Affiliate: James J. Bock | First 5 Authors: Matthew A. Petroff, Zeeshan Ahmed, James J. Bock, Marion Dierickx, Sofia Fatigoni | Summary: The search for the polarized imprint of primordial gravitational waves in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) as direct evidence of cosmic inflation requires exquisite sensitivity and control over systematics. The next-generation CMB-S4 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Kaushik Venkatesh Krishnamurthy, Chenghao Wang, Shreyansh Pitroda, Adarsh Salagame, Eric Sihite | Summary: In this study, our aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of thruster-assisted steep slope walking for the Husky Carbon, a quadrupedal robot equipped with custom-designed actuators and plural electric ducted fans, through simulation prior […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael L. Roukes | First 5 Authors: John E. Sader, Alfredo Gomez, Adam P. Neumann, Alexander R. Nunn, Michael L. 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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrea D. Caviglia | First 5 Authors: Greta Segantini, Chih-Ying Hsu, Carl Willem Rischau, Patrick Blah, Mattias Matthiesen | Summary: The epitaxial growth of complex oxides enables the production of high-quality films, yet substrate choice is restricted to certain symmetry and lattice parameters, thereby limiting the technological applications of epitaxial oxides. In comparison, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Bernhard Kerbl, Andréas Meuleman, Georgios Kopanas, Michael Wimmer, Alexandre Lanvin | Summary: Novel view synthesis has seen major advances in recent years, with 3D Gaussian splatting offering an excellent level of visual quality, fast training and real-time rendering. However, the resources needed for training and rendering inevitably […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Huiying Cui, Qianying Hu, Xuan Zhao, Liguo Ma, Feng Jin | Summary: The study of exciton-polarons has offered profound insights into the many-body interactions between bosonic excitations and their immersed Fermi sea within layered heterostructures. However, little is known about the properties of exciton polarons with interlayer […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Tianxiang Zhao, Dongsheng Luo, Xiang Zhang, Suhang Wang, | Summary: In this paper, we tackle a new problem of textit{multi-source unsupervised domain adaptation (MSUDA) for graphs}, where models trained on annotated source domains need to be transferred to the unsupervised target graph for node classification. Due to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Kangrui Chang, Haobin Zheng, Yongzhuang Zhou, Yong Shen | Summary: Despite the wide applications for high-repetition-rate mode-locked fiber lasers, challenges persist in shortening the cavity length and coupling the fiber collimators for most existing techniques. Here, we introduce a novel collimator alignment method and demonstrate […]
Kavli Affiliate: P. G. Steeneken | First 5 Authors: M. P. Abrahams, J. Martinez, P. G. Steeneken, G. J. Verbiest, | Summary: Most microphones operate by detecting the sound-pressure induced motion of a membrane. In contrast, here we introduce a microphone that operates by monitoring the sound-pressure-induced modulation of the compressibility of air. By driving […]
