    Deep neural networks (DNNs) have a high capacity to completely memorize noisy labels given sufficient training time, and its memorization, unfortunately, leads to performance degradation. Recently, virtual adversarial training (VAT) attracts attention as it could further improve the generalization of DNNs in semi-supervised learning. The driving force behind

    Unsupervised anomaly detection (AD) is a challenging task in realistic applications. Recently, there is an increasing trend to detect anomalies with deep neural networks (DNN). However, most popular deep AD detectors cannot protect the network from learning contaminated information brought by anomalous data, resulting in unsatisfactory detection performance

    We provide explicit parametrisations of all Darboux transforms of Delaunay surfaces. Using the Darboux transformation on a multiple cover, we obtain this way new closed CMC surfaces with dihedral symmetry. These can be used to construct closed same-lobed CMC multibubbletons by applying Bianchi permutability.

    In this work, we performed a detailed study of the fractional order phase transition (FPT) for several AdS black hole prototypes [1]. Our objective is to see whether the FPT 4/3 order at critical points reported in [2] is universal. Our analysis shows two remarkable features: Firstly, the FPT is located at 4/3 order only when the black hole possesses a spher

    We propose a new high order accurate nodal discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for the solution of nonlinear hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations (PDE) on unstructured polygonal Voronoi meshes. Rather than using classical polynomials of degree N inside each element, in our new approach the discrete solution is represented by piecewise continuo

    Spin transfer torque and spin pumping are central reciprocal phenomena in spintronics. These phenomena occur in hybrid systems of normal metals and magnets. Spin transfer is the conversion of spin currents in metals to a torque on the magnetization of magnets. Spin pumping is the emission of spin currents from precessing magnets. Here, we demonstrate a gener

    A reconfigurable microwave reflectarray metasurface (MS) is investigated for beamforming applications. The reflected beam direction is changed by applying external dc voltages, which create a reflection phase gradient on the structure. The studied MS comprises a chessboard-like array of metallic patches placed over a grounded dielectric slab with metallic vi

    The method developed by Van Dijk, Nogami and Toyama for obtaining the time-evolved wave function of a decaying quantum system is generalized to potentials and initial wave functions of non-compact support. The long time asymptotic behavior is extracted and employed to predict the timescale for the onset of non-exponential decay. The method is illustrated wit

    The performance of a guidance, navigation and control (GNC) system of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) heavily depends on the correct tuning of its parameters. Our objective is to automatically tune these parameters with respect to arbitrary high-level control objectives within different operational scenarios. In contrast to literature, an overall tuni

    When an energetic parton traverses the hot QCD medium it may suffer multiple scattering and lose its energy. The medium-induced gluon radiation for a massive quark will be suppressed relative to that of a light quark due to the dead-cone effect. The development of new declustering techniques of jet evolution makes a direct study of the dead-cone effect in th

    Random dynamics in isolated quantum systems is of practical use in quantum information and is of theoretical interest in fundamental physics. Despite a large number of theoretical studies, it has not been addressed how random dynamics can be verified from experimental data. In this paper, based on an information-theoretic formulation of random dynamics, i.e.

    We have derived exact expressions for the domain wall free energy along the three high-symmetry directions of a triangular lattice with anisotropic nearest-neighbor interactions. The triangular lattice undergoes an orderdisorder phase transition at a temperature Tc given by exp(-(e1+e2)/2kTc)+ exp(-(e2+e3)/2kTc)+ exp(-(e3+e1)/2kTc)= 1, where e1, e2, e3 are t

    Today's computing systems require moving data back-and-forth between computing resources (e.g., CPUs, GPUs, accelerators) and off-chip main memory so that computation can take place on the data. Unfortunately, this data movement is a major bottleneck for system performance and energy consumption. One promising execution paradigm that alleviates the data move

    The trajectory of an individual's recovery after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is heterogeneous, with complete recovery in some cases but persistent disability in others. We hypothesized that changes in structural brain network abnormalities guide the trajectory of an individual's recovery post-injury. Our objective was to characterize the variability in reco

    No-regret learning has been widely used to compute a Nash equilibrium in two-person zero-sum games. However, there is still a lack of regret analysis for network stochastic zero-sum games, where players competing in two subnetworks only have access to some local information, and the cost functions include uncertainty. Such a game model can be found in securi

    Crowd image is arguably one of the most laborious data to annotate. In this paper, we devote to reduce the massive demand of densely labeled crowd data, and propose a novel weakly-supervised setting, in which we leverage the binary ranking of two images with high-contrast crowd counts as training guidance. To enable training under this new setting, we conver

    In the paper we study a measure version of the evolutionary nonlinear Boltzmann-type equation in which we admit a random number of collisions of particles. We consider first a stationary model and use two methods to find its fixed points: the first based on Zolotarev seminorm and the second on Kantorovich-Rubinstein maximum principle. Then a dynamic version

    The dynamical vortex production, with a trap-confining time-dependent stirred potential, is studied by using mass-imbalanced cold-atom coupled Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). The vortex formation is explored by considering that both coupled species are confined by a pancake-like harmonic trap, slightly modified elliptically by a time-dependent periodic pote

    Let $Aut_{alg}(X)$ be the subgroup of the group of regular automorphisms $Aut(X)$ of an affine algebraic variety $X$ generated by all connected algebraic subgroups. We prove that if $dim X \ge 2$ and if $Aut_{alg}(X)$ is rich enough, $Aut_{alg}(X)$ is not linear, i.e., it cannot be embedded into $GL_n(K)$, where $K$ is an algebraically closed field of charac

    For two correlated graphs which are independently sub-sampled from a common Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathbf{G}(n, p)$, we wish to recover their \emph{latent} vertex matching from the observation of these two graphs \emph{without labels}. When $p = n^{-\alpha+o(1)}$ for $\alpha\in (0, 1]$, we establish a sharp information-theoretic threshold for whether it i

    Exponential averages that appear in integral fluctuation theorems can be recast as a sum over moments of thermodynamic observables. We use two examples to show that such moment series can exhibit non-uniform convergence in certain singular limits. The first example is a simple model of a process with measurement and feedback. In this example, the limit of in

    Facial micro-expressions recognition has attracted much attention recently. Micro-expressions have the characteristics of short duration and low intensity, and it is difficult to train a high-performance classifier with the limited number of existing micro-expressions. Therefore, recognizing micro-expressions is a challenge task. In this paper, we propose a

    We study the impact of the loss of axial symmetry around the optical axis on the polarimetric properties of a telescope with segmented primary mirror when each segment is present in a different aging stage. The different oxidation stage of each segment as they are substituted in time leads to non-negligible crosstalk terms. This effect is wavelength dependen

    We study the geodesics of $5d$ Reissner-Nordstrom and nonsingular black strings, and establish a rational bound orbit taxonomy for both massive as well as null test particles. For the timelike case, test particles with high energy (that would have made them plunge into or scatter off a black hole) could still form bound orbits around the black strings. We ca

    Adversarial attacks have only focused on changing the predictions of the classifier, but their danger greatly depends on how the class is mistaken. For example, when an automatic driving system mistakes a Persian cat for a Siamese cat, it is hardly a problem. However, if it mistakes a cat for a 120km/h minimum speed sign, serious problems can arise. As a ste

The mass and current coupling of these states are calculated by taking into account the quark, gluon and mixed vacuum condensates up to dimension 10. The obtained results are com

    We construct three models to describe the scenario where two eternal black holes are separated by a flat space, and can eventually be entangled by exchanging radiations. In the doubly holographic setup, we compute the entanglement entropy and the mutual information among the subsystems and obtain the dynamic phase structure of the entanglement. The formation

    This paper investigates the use of the reconfigurable dual-functional surface to guarantee the full-space secure transmission in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks. In the presence of eavesdroppers, the downlink communication from the base station to the legitimate users is safeguarded by the simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigura

    In image classification, "debiasing" aims to train a classifier to be less susceptible to dataset bias, the strong correlation between peripheral attributes of data samples and a target class. For example, even if the frog class in the dataset mainly consists of frog images with a swamp background (i.e., bias-aligned samples), a debiased classifier should be

    Recent years have witnessed a rapid growth of applying deep spatiotemporal methods in traffic forecasting. However, the prediction of origin-destination (OD) demands is still a challenging problem since the number of OD pairs is usually quadratic to the number of stations. In this case, most of the existing spatiotemporal methods fail to handle spatial relat

    Existing clustering methods are based on a single granularity of information, such as the distance and density of each data. This most fine-grained based approach is usually inefficient and susceptible to noise. Inspired by adaptive process of granular-ball division and differentiation, we present a novel clustering approach that retains the speed and effici

    Many ontologies, i.e., Description Logic (DL) knowledge bases, have been developed to provide rich knowledge about various domains. An ontology consists of an ABox, i.e., assertion axioms between two entities or between a concept and an entity, and a TBox, i.e., terminology axioms between two concepts. Neural logical reasoning (NLR) is a fundamental task to

    We study a multi-agent reinforcement learning dynamics, and analyze its asymptotic behavior in infinite-horizon discounted Markov potential games. We focus on the independent and decentralized setting, where players do not know the game parameters, and cannot communicate or coordinate. In each stage, players update their estimate of Q-function that evaluates

    Distilling from the feature maps can be fairly effective for dense prediction tasks since both the feature discriminability and localization priors can be well transferred. However, not every pixel contributes equally to the performance, and a good student should learn from what really matters to the teacher. In this paper, we introduce a learnable embedding

    The purpose of this paper is to study charged compact stars using extended gravitational theory, also known as $f(\mathcal{R}, \mathcal{G}, \mathcal{T})$ gravity. Alternatively, this theory is also called $f(\mathcal{R}, \mathcal{T}, \mathcal{G})$ gravity. The symbols $\mathcal{R}, \mathcal{G}$, and $\mathcal{T}$ denote the Ricci Scalar, the Gauss-Bonnet inv

    We employ two models of the nucleon-nucleon force: the OPE-Gaussian as well as the chiral N4LO and N4LO+ interactions with semilocal regularization in momentum space to study correlations among two-nucleon and three-nucleon elastic scattering observables. These models contain a number of free parameters whose values and covariance matrices are evaluated from

    Component-based design paradigm is of paramount importance due to prolific growth in the complexity of modern-day systems. Since the components are developed primarily by multi-party vendors and often assembled to realize the overall system, it is an onus of the designer to certify both the functional and non-functional requirements of such systems. Several

    Despite the substantial demand for high-quality, large-area building maps, no established open-source workflow for generating 2D and 3D maps currently exists. This study introduces an automated, open-source workflow for large-scale 2D and 3D building mapping utilizing airborne LiDAR data. Uniquely, our workflow operates entirely unsupervised, eliminating the

    Memristive technologies are attractive candidates to replace conventional memory technologies, and can also be used to perform logic and arithmetic operations using a technique called 'stateful logic.' Combining data storage and computation in the memory array enables a novel non-von Neumann architecture, where both the operations are performed within a memr

    Existing dialogue modeling methods have achieved promising performance on various dialogue tasks with the aid of Transformer and the large-scale pre-trained language models. However, some recent studies revealed that the context representations produced by these methods suffer the problem of anisotropy. In this paper, we find that the generated representatio
