physics.flu-dynXin Li, Zhiwen Deng, Rui Feng, Ziyang Liu
Artificial intelligence-based three-dimensional(3D) fluid modeling has gained significant attention in recent years. However, the accuracy of such models is often limited by the processing of irregular flow data. In order to bolster the credibility of near-wall flow prediction, this paper presents a deep learning-based reduced order model for three-dimension

We derive attainable upper bounds on the algebraic connectivity (spectral gap) of a regular graph in terms of its diameter and girth. This bound agrees with the well-known Alon-Boppana-Friedman bound for graphs of even diameter, but is an improvement for graphs of odd diameter. For the girth bound, we show that only Moore graphs can attain it, and these only

As the in-plane counterpart of magnetic skyrmions, magnetic bimerons have the same topological advantages, but are rarely observed in experiments. Employing first-principles calculat

In the light-front quark-diquark model (LFQDM), the higher twist generalized transverse momentum dependent distribution (GTMD) $F_{31}(x, {\bf p_\perp},{\bf \Delta_\perp})$ for the proton has been analyzed. We have derived the GTMD overlap equation by the analysis of GTMD correlator, employing the light-front wave functions in both the scalar and vector diqu

Dark Matter (DM) particles with sufficiently large cross sections may scatter as they travel through Earth's bulk. The corresponding changes in the DM flux give rise to a characteristic daily modulation signal in detectors sensitive to DM-electron interactions. Here, we report results obtained from the first underground operation of the DAMIC-M prototype det
Mitigating Adversarial Vulnerability through Causal Parameter Estimation by Adversarial Double Machine Learning
cs.LGByung-Kwan Lee, Junho Kim, Yong Man Ro
Adversarial examples derived from deliberately crafted perturbations on visual inputs can easily harm decision process of deep neural networks. To prevent potential threats, various adversarial training-based defense methods have grown rapidly and become a de facto standard approach for robustness. Despite recent competitive achievements, we observe that adv

Dark matter induced event rate in an Earth-based detector is predicted to show an annual modulation as a result of the Earth's orbital motion around the Sun. We searched for this modulation signature using the ionization signal of the DarkSide-50 liquid argon time projection chamber. No significant signature compatible with dark matter is observed in the ele

The evolutionary diversity optimization aims at finding a diverse set of solutions which satisfy some constraint on their fitness. In the context of multi-objective optimization this constraint can require solutions to be Pareto-optimal. In this paper we study how the GSEMO algorithm with additional diversity-enhancing heuristic optimizes a diversity of its

In this paper we propose a two-sample test based on copula entropy (CE). The proposed test statistic is defined as the difference between the CEs of the null hypothesis and the alternative. The estimator of the test statistic is proposed with the non-parametric estimator of CE, which is non-parametric and hyperparameter-free. Simulation experiments verified

The foundation models based on pre-training technology have significantly advanced artificial intelligence from theoretical to practical applications. These models have facilitated the feasibility of computer-aided diagnosis for widespread use. Medical contrastive vision-language pre-training, which does not require human annotations, is an effective approac
FreeCOS: Self-Supervised Learning from Fractals and Unlabeled Images for Curvilinear Object Segmentation
cs.CVTianyi Shi, Xiaohuan Ding, Liang Zhang, Xin Yang
Curvilinear object segmentation is critical for many applications. However, manually annotating curvilinear objects is very time-consuming and error-prone, yielding insufficiently available annotated datasets for existing supervised methods and domain adaptation methods. This paper proposes a self-supervised curvilinear object segmentation method that learns

The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is one of the most often-used NP-Hard problems in computer science to study the effectiveness of computing models and hardware platforms. In this regard, it is also heavily used as a vehicle to study the feasibility of the quantum computing paradigm for this class of problems. In this paper, we tackle the TSP using the qu

Next-generation wireless networks strive for higher communication rates, ultra-low latency, seamless connectivity, and high-resolution sensing capabilities. To meet these demands, terahertz (THz)-band signal processing is envisioned as a key technology offering wide bandwidth and sub-millimeter wavelength. Furthermore, THz integrated sensing and communicatio
A universal right tail upper bound for supercritical Galton-Watson processes with bounded offspring
math.PRJohn Fernley, Emmanuel Jacob
We consider a supercritical Galton-Watson process $Z_n$ whose offspring distribution has mean $m>1$ and is bounded by some $d\in \{2,3,\ldots\}$. As well-known, the associated martingale $W_n=Z_n/m^n$ converges a.s. to some nonnegative random variable $W_\infty$. We provide a universal upper bound for the right tail of $W_\infty$ and $W_n$, which is uniform

While transformer models have been demonstrated to be effective for natural language processing tasks and high-level vision tasks, only a few attempts have been made to use powerful transformer models for single image super-resolution. Because transformer models have powerful representation capacity and the in-built self-attention mechanisms in transformer m

This paper studies source-free domain adaptive fundus image segmentation which aims to adapt a pretrained fundus segmentation model to a target domain using unlabeled images. This is a challenging task because it is highly risky to adapt a model only using unlabeled data. Most existing methods tackle this task mainly by designing techniques to carefully gene
Probing new physics with polarized $\tau$ and $\Lambda_c$ in quasielastic $\nu_{\tau}\!+\!n\!\to\! \tau^-\!+\!\Lambda_c$ scattering process

The absence of semitauonic decays of charmed hadrons makes the decay processes mediated by the quark-level $c\to d \tau^+ \nu_{\tau}$ transition inadequate for probing a generic new physics (NP) with all kinds of Dirac structures. To fill in this gap, we consider in this paper the quasielastic neutrino scattering process $\nu_{\tau}+n\to \tau^-+\Lambda_c$, a

We study Parikh automata on finite and infinite words. First we establish some results for Parikh automata on finite words. Following, we present several definitions of Parikh automata on infinite words. We consider the deterministic as well as the non-deterministic variants and study closure properties, expressiveness, and common decision problems with appl

We are looking for integer sets that resemble classical Cantor set and investigate the structure of their sum sets. Especially we investigate $FS(B)$ the subset sum of sequence type $B=\{\lfloor p^n\alpha\rfloor\}^\infty_{n=0}$. When $p=2$, then we prove $FS(B)+FS(B)=\N$ by analogy with the Cantor set, and some structure theorem for $p>2$
