Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: Cusuh Ham, Matthew Fisher, James Hays, Nicholas Kolkin, Yuchen Liu | Summary: We present personalized residuals and localized attention-guided sampling for efficient concept-driven generation using text-to-image diffusion models. Our method first represents concepts by freezing the weights of a pretrained text-conditioned diffusion model and learning low-rank residuals […]

Kavli Affiliate: Mark J. Bowick | First 5 Authors: Xin Li, Shuchen Zhang, Mark J. Bowick, Duanduan Wan, | Summary: After rainfall, pine needles are observed to float on the surface of small puddles. As the water evaporates, these pine needles exhibit spontaneous self-assembly into distinct clusters. Motivated by this natural phenomenon, we conducted experimental […]

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: Vivian Liu, Rubaiat Habib Kazi, Li-Yi Wei, Matthew Fisher, Timothy Langlois | Summary: Animated logos are a compelling and ubiquitous way individuals and brands represent themselves online. Manually authoring these logos can require significant artistic skill and effort. To help novice designers animate logos, design tools currently […]

Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | First 5 Authors: William Groman, Igor Kudelin, Alexander Lind, Dahyeon Lee, Takuma Nakamura | Summary: Next-generation communications, radar and navigation systems will extend and exploit the higher bandwidth of the millimeter-wave domain for increased communication data rates as well as radar with higher sensitivity and increased spatial resolution. However, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew Fisher | First 5 Authors: Arman Maesumi, Dylan Hu, Krishi Saripalli, Vladimir G. Kim, Matthew Fisher | Summary: Procedural noise is a fundamental component of computer graphics pipelines, offering a flexible way to generate textures that exhibit "natural" random variation. Many different types of noise exist, each produced by a separate algorithm. […]

Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Vahideh Eshaghian, Sören Wilkening, Johan Åberg, David Gross, | Summary: Many search-based quantum algorithms that achieve a theoretical speedup are not practically relevant since they require extraordinarily long coherence times, or lack the parallelizability of their classical counterparts.This raises the question of how to divide computational tasks […]

Kavli Affiliate: Leon Balents | First 5 Authors: Zhuoliang Ni, Urban Seifert, Amanda V. Haglund, Nan Huang, David G. Mandrus | Summary: In a collinear antiferromagnet, spins tend to cant towards the direction of an applied magnetic field, thereby decreasing the energy of the system. The canting angle becomes negligible when the magnetic field is […]

Kavli Affiliate: John E. Bowers | First 5 Authors: Alexander D. White, Geun Ho Ahn, Kasper Van Gasse, Richard Luhtaru, Joel Guo | Summary: Rapid progress in photonics has led to an explosion of integrated devices that promise to deliver the same performance as table-top technology at the nanoscale; heralding the next generation of optical […]
