Correcting for Selection Biases in the Determination of the Hubble Constant from Time-Delay Cosmography

Kavli Affiliate: Philip J. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Tian Li, Thomas E. Collett, Philip J. Marshall, Sydney Erickson, Wolfgang Enzi | Summary: The time delay between multiple images of strongly lensed quasars has been used to infer the Hubble constant. The primary systematic uncertainty for time-delay cosmography is the mass-sheet transform (MST), which preserves […]

Domain-Adaptive Neural Posterior Estimation for Strong Gravitational Lens Analysis

Kavli Affiliate: Brian D. Nord | First 5 Authors: Paxson Swierc, Marcos Tamargo-Arizmendi, Aleksandra Ćiprijanović, Brian D. Nord, | Summary: Modeling strong gravitational lenses is prohibitively expensive for modern and next-generation cosmic survey data. Neural posterior estimation (NPE), a simulation-based inference (SBI) approach, has been studied as an avenue for efficient analysis of strong lensing […]

Mitigating Forgetting in LLM Supervised Fine-Tuning and Preference Learning

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Heshan Fernando, Han Shen, Parikshit Ram, Yi Zhou, Horst Samulowitz | Summary: Post-training of pre-trained LLMs, which typically consists of the supervised fine-tuning (SFT) stage and the preference learning (RLHF or DPO) stage, is crucial to effective and safe LLM applications. The widely adopted approach in post-training […]

ybx1 acts upstream of atoh1a to promote the rapid regeneration of hair cells in zebrafish lateral-line neuromasts

Kavli Affiliate: A. James Hudspeth | Authors: Caleb C. Reagor and A. J. Hudspeth | Summary: Like the sensory organs of the human inner ear, the lateral-line neuromasts (NMs) of fish such as the zebrafish (Danio rerio) contain mechanosensory hair cells (HCs) that are surrounded by progenitors called supporting cells. Damaged NMs can quickly regenerate […]

Gut bacteria-derived succinate induces enteric nervous system regeneration

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Mucida | Authors: Begüm Aydin, Izabela Mamede, Joana Cardoso, Julia Deere, Yelina Alvarez, Shanshan Qiao, Ved P. Sharma, Marissa A. Scavuzzo, Gregory P. Donaldson, Chun-Jun Guo and Daniel Mucida | Summary: Enteric neurons control gut physiology by regulating peristalsis, nutrient absorption, and secretion. Disruptions in microbial communities caused by antibiotics or enteric […]

Why do bats fly into cave doors? Inattentional blindness in echolocating animals

Kavli Affiliate: Cynthia F. Moss | Authors: Nikita M Finger, Keegan E Eveland, Xiaoyan Yin and Cynthia F Moss | Summary: Echolocating bats can navigate complex 3D environments by integrating prior knowledge of spatial layouts and real-time sensory cues. This study demonstrates that inattentional blindness to sensory information undermines successful navigation in Egyptian fruit bats, […]

Early Bright Galaxies from Helium Enhancements in High-Redshift Star Clusters

Kavli Affiliate: Alexander P. Ji | First 5 Authors: Harley Katz, Alexander P. Ji, O. Grace Telford, Peter Senchyna, | Summary: The first few cycles of JWST have identified an overabundance of UV-bright galaxies and a general excess of UV luminosity density at $zgtrsim10$ compared to expectations from most (pre-JWST) theoretical models. Moreover, some of […]
