As an inevitable trend for mitigating climate change, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) rely on efficient energy management

Socially responsible investors build investment portfolios intending to incite social and environmental advancement alongside a financial return. Although Mean-Variance (MV) models successfully generate the highest possible return based on an investor's risk tolerance, MV models do not make provisions for additional constraints relevant to socially responsib

Humans have a natural ability to perform semantic associations with the surrounding objects in the environment. This allows them to create a mental map of the environment, allowing them to navigate on-demand when given linguistic instructions. A natural goal in Vision Language Navigation (VLN) research is to impart autonomous agents with similar capabilities

We extend the notion of regularized integrals introduced by Li-Zhou that aims to assign finite values to divergent integrals on configuration spaces of Riemann surfaces. We then give cohomological formulations for the extended notion using the tools of current cohomology and mixed Hodge structures. We also provide practical ways of constructing representativ

With the development of multimedia technology, Video Copy Detection has been a crucial problem for social media platforms. Meta AI hold Video Similarity Challenge on CVPR 2023 to push the technology forward. In this paper, we share our winner solutions on both tracks to help progress in this area. For Descriptor Track, we propose a dual-level detection metho

We present extensions of the Colorful Helly Theorem for $d$-collapsible and $d$-Leray complexes, providing a common generalization to the matroidal versions of the theorem due to Kalai and Meshulam, the ``very colorful" Helly theorem introduced by Arocha, B\'ar\'any, Bracho, Fabila and Montejano, and the ``semi-intersecting" colorful Helly theorem proved by
Exploring Modifications to FLRW Cosmology with General Entropy and Thermodynamics: A new Approach
gr-qcA. Khodam-Mohammadi, M. Monshizadeh
The investigation of modifications to the FLRW cosmology resulting from the consideration of a general entropy for the cosmological apparent horizon is the subject of this study. Building upon the work of Nojiri and collaborators in 2022, who introduced a class of generalized entropies with four parameters capable of converging to familiar entropies and addr

This paper studies noisy index coding problems over single-input single-output broadcast channels. The codewords from a chosen index code of length $N$ are transmitted after $2^N$-PSK modulation over an AWGN channel. In "Index Coded PSK Modulation for prioritized Receivers," the authors showed that when a length-$N$ index code is transmitted as a $2^N$-PSK s

Robust and accurate detection and segmentation of heterogenous tumors appearing in different anatomical organs with supervised methods require large-scale labeled datasets covering all possible types of diseases. Due to the unavailability of such rich datasets and the high cost of annotations, unsupervised anomaly detection (UAD) methods have been developed

Crowdsourced investigations shore up democratic institutions by debunking misinformation and uncovering human rights abuses. However, current crowdsourcing approaches rely on simplistic collaborative or competitive models and lack technological support, limiting their collective impact. Prior research has shown that blending elements of competition and colla

Efficient deployment of large language models (LLMs) necessitates low-bit quantization to minimize model size and inference cost. While low-bit integer formats (e.g., INT8/INT4) have been the conventional choice, emerging low-bit floating-point formats (e.g., FP8/FP4) offer a compelling alternative and are gaining support from cutting-edge hardware, such as
Development of AC-LGAD detector with finer pitch electrodes for high energy physics experiments

Low-Gain Avalanche Diode (LGAD) sensor is one of candidate sensors for the tracker at future hadron collider experiments. To use this sensor as a tracking detector, AC-LGAD sensor is being developed which has both timing and spatial resolutions. In high luminosity environments, good timing resolution (typically 30 ps) together with $\mathcal{O}$(10) ${\mathr

Vision transformers (ViTs) quantization offers a promising prospect to facilitate deploying large pre-trained networks on resource-limited devices. Fully-binarized ViTs (Bi-ViT) that pushes the quantization of ViTs to its limit remain largely unexplored and a very challenging task yet, due to their unacceptable performance. Through extensive empirical analys
Detection of thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect in the circumgalactic medium of low-mass galaxies -- a surprising pattern in self-similarity and baryon sufficiency
astro-ph.GASanskriti Das, Yi-Kuan Chiang, Smita Mathur
We report on the measurement of the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) Effect in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of 641,923 galaxies with $\rm M_\star$=$\rm 10^{9.8-11.3}M_\odot$ at $z<$0.5, pushing the exploration of tSZ Effect to lower-mass galaxies compared to previous studies. We cross-correlate the galaxy catalog of $WISE$ and $SuperCosmos$ with the Compt

In this paper, we propose a Pre-trained Mixed Integer Optimization framework (PreMIO) that accelerates online mixed integer program (MIP) solving with offline datasets and machine learning models. Our method is based on a data-driven multi-variable cardinality branching procedure that splits the MIP feasible region using hyperplanes chosen by the concentrati
Are Your Explanations Reliable? Investigating the Stability of LIME in Explaining Text Classifiers by Marrying XAI and Adversarial Attack
cs.LGChristopher Burger, Lingwei Chen, Thai Le
LIME has emerged as one of the most commonly referenced tools in explainable AI (XAI) frameworks that is integrated into critical machine learning applications--e.g., healthcare and finance. However, its stability remains little explored, especially in the context of text data, due to the unique text-space constraints. To address these challenges, in this pa
