VLA-Mark: A cross modal watermark for large vision-language alignment model

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Shuliang Liu, Shuliang Liu, , , | Summary: Vision-language models demand watermarking solutions that protect intellectual property without compromising multimodal coherence. Existing text watermarking methods disrupt visual-textual alignment through biased token selection and static strategies, leaving semantic-critical concepts vulnerable. We propose VLA-Mark, a vision-aligned framework that embeds […]

Strangeon Matter: from Stars to Nuggets

Kavli Affiliate: Renxin Xu | First 5 Authors: Haoyang Qi, Haoyang Qi, , , | Summary: The fact that strange sea quarks are abundant in the nucleons, but without strangeness, is of great importance for understanding the nature of dense matter condensed by the strong interaction, particularly in the context of the “gigantic nucleus” formed […]

The Power of Architecture: Deep Dive into Transformer Architectures for Long-Term Time Series Forecasting

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Lefei Shen, Lefei Shen, , , | Summary: Transformer-based models have recently become dominant in Long-term Time Series Forecasting (LTSF), yet the variations in their architecture, such as encoder-only, encoder-decoder, and decoder-only designs, raise a crucial question: What Transformer architecture works best for LTSF tasks? However, existing […]

Supersonic Turbulence in Primordial Halos: A Comparison With and Without The Stream Velocity

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Avi Chen, Avi Chen, , , | Summary: Turbulence plays a critical role in regulating star formation in molecular clouds and is also observed in simulations of primordial halos that host Population III (Pop III) stars. The relative velocity between baryons and dark matter at the time […]

The Physical Origin and Time Lag of Multi-Frequency Flares from SgrA*

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Hong-Xuan Jiang, Hong-Xuan Jiang, , , | Summary: Sagittarius~A$^*$, the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, exhibits flares across various wavelengths, yet their origins remain elusive. We performed 3D two-temperature General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations of magnetized accretion flows initialized from multi-loop magnetic field […]

BASS LIII: The Eddington Ratio as the Primary Regulator of the Fraction of X-ray Emission in Active Galactic Nuclei

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Kriti Kamal Gupta, Kriti Kamal Gupta, , , | Summary: Active galactic nuclei (AGN) emit radiation via accretion across the entire energy spectrum. While the standard disk and corona model can somewhat describe this emission, it fails to predict specific features such as the soft X-ray excess, […]
