description: Predominant methods for image-based drone detection frequently rely on employing generic object detection algorithms like YOLOv5. While proficient in identifying drones against homogeneous backgrounds, these algorithms often struggle in complex, highly textured environments. In such scenarios, drones seamlessly integrate into the background, creating camouflage effects that adversely affect the detection quality. To address this issue, we introduce a novel deep learning architecture called YOLO-FEDER FusionNet. Unlike conventional approaches, YOLO-FEDER FusionNet combines generic object detection methods with the specialized strength of camouflage object detection techniques to enhance drone detection capabilities. Comprehensive evaluations of YOLO-FEDER FusionNet show the efficiency of the proposed model and demonstrate substantial improvements in both reducing missed detections and false alarms.

description: The effectiveness of traditional communication techniques has declined in recent years, and marketing specialists are looking at more creative ways to engage consumers. A lot of attention has recently been paid to advergames, which are seen as an attractive new marketing tool to increase consumer engagement and education of brand awareness. The term advergame refers to games that combine brand advertising with gaming to promote business products. In this paper, we study the impact of music on consumer uptake of advergames (n=197). Our results show that music in advergames is an important feature because of its capability to attract audience, enhance their user experience and increase brand awareness.

Unveiling The Hidden Blr Of Seyfert 2 Galaxies
Creators: name: Ramos Almeida, Cristina
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2016

description: The origin of the unification model for AGN was the detection of broad hydrogen recombination lines in the optical polarized spectrum of the Seyfert 2 galaxy (Sy2) NGC 1068. Since then, a search for the hidden broad-line region (HBLR) of nearby Sy2s started, but polarized broad lines have only been detected in ~30-40% of the nearby Sy2s observed to date. Here we present new VLT/FORS2 optical spectropolarimetry of a sample of 15 Sy2s, including Compton-thin and Compton-thick sources. The sample includes six galaxies without previously published spectropolarimetry, some of them normally treated as non-hidden BLR (NHBLR) objects in the literature, and four Sy2s classified as NHBLR based on previous data. We report >4sigma detections of a HBLR in 11 of these galaxies (73% of the sample). Our results confirm that at least some NHBLRs were misclassified, bringing previous publications reporting differences between HBLR and NHBLR objects into question. We detect broad Ha and Hb components in polarized light for 9 targets, and just broad Ha for the other two. We do not find any correlation between the properties of the polarized spectra and the column densities measured from the X-rays or torus inclination, but a larger sample is required to confirm this.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2016

description: In this work, we present integral field spectroscopy observations in the near-infrared (NIR) acquired for the low-luminosity AGN NGC 1386 with SINFONI at the Very Large Telescope. This galaxy is one of the best targets in the nearby Universe to investigate the feeding and feedback connection with a spatial resolution of 8 pc. We have characterized the kinematics and morphology of three different phases of the interstellar medium: the warm molecular gas, traced by several H2 emission lines in the NIR K-band; the low excitation gas, traced by Brackett gamma; and the highly excited coronal gas, traced by [Si VI] and [Ca VIII] lines. The SINFONI data has been also compared with a multiwavelength dataset collected for NGC 1386 covering the radio, infrared, optical and X-ray spectral ranges; allowing us to infer the excitation mechanisms behind the emission line spectrum in the NIR.

description: Shallow nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond offer unique opportunities for studying photochemical reactions at the single-molecule level, such as the photogeneration of radical pairs in proximal molecules. A prerequesite for such experimental schemes is the detailed understanding of the charge and spin dynamics of NV centers exposed to the short-wavelength light required for photoexciting chemical species. Here, we measure and analyze the charge and spin dynamics of shallow NV centers under 445 nm (blue) and 375 nm (UV) illumination. With blue excitation, we observe a power-dependent charge-state preparation accompanied by modest preservation of spin initialization fidelity. Under UV excitation, we find a power-independent charge-state preparation and no spin polarization. We further observe an irreversible aging of NV centers under prolonged exposure to UV, and to a lesser extent, blue laser excitation, which we attribute to formation of new electronic trap states. This aging manifests itself in a reduced charge stability and spin contrast, and is detrimental to the NV sensing performance. We evaluate the prospects and limitations of NV centers for probing photogenerated radical pairs based on experimentally measured sensitivities following blue and UV excitation, and outline the design rules for possible sensing schemes.

Bell vs Bell: a ding-dong battle over quantum incompleteness

description: Does determinism (or even the incompleteness of quantum mechanics) follow from locality and perfect correlations? In a 1964 paper John Bell gave the first demonstration that quantum mechanics is incompatible with local hidden variables. Since then a vigorous debate has rung out over whether he relied on an assumption of determinism or instead, as he later claimed in a 1981 paper, derived determinism from assumptions of locality and perfect correlation. This paper aims to bring clarity to the debate via simple examples and rigorous results. It is first recalled, via quantum and classical counterexamples, that the weakest statistical form of locality consistent with Bell's 1964 paper (parameter independence) is insufficient for the derivation of determinism. Attention is then turned to critically assess Bell's appealing to the Einstein-Rosen-Podolsky (EPR) incompleteness argument to support his claim. It is shown this argument is itself incomplete, via counterexamples that expose two logical gaps. Closing these gaps via a strong "counterfactual" reality criterion enables a rigorous derivation of both determinism and parameter independence, and in this sense justifies Bell's claim. Conversely, however, it is noted that whereas the EPR argument requires a weaker "measurement choice" assumption than Bell's demonstration, it nevertheless leads to a similar incompatibility with quantum predictions rather than to quantum incompleteness.

New section 5 compares the weaker "accessible choice" assumption required for the EPR argument vs the "measurement independence" assumption required for Bell inequalities, and discusses a relevant recent experiment. v3: accepted version (minor corrections to Refs.). 4 puns, no figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2009.14223

description: A planar hyper-lens, capable of creating sub-wavelength imaging for broadband electromagnetic wave, is designed based on electromagnetic null medium. Subsequently, a scheme for the implementation of the proposed hyper-lens is given by using well-designed flexural metal plates, which function as the reduced electromagnetic null medium for TM-polarized microwaves. Both simulated and measured results verify that the hyper-lens designed with flexural metal plates can achieve super-resolution imaging for microwave at operating wavelength (λ0=3cm) with a resolution of 0.25λ0 and a uniform magnification of about 5. Moreover, the designed hyper-lens ensures that both the object and image surfaces are planes, and simultaneously provides a uniform magnification for objects in different positions. Additionally, the proposed hyper-lens offers a broadband super-resolution imaging capabilities, achieving good super-resolution imaging effects for microwave frequencies ranging from 8.5 to 11 GHz. The proposed hyper-lens may find applications in high precision imaging, detection, and sensing.
Type I Agn - Dust And Ionized Gas Around The Nuclei
Creators: name: Nadolny, Jakub
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2016

description: In this work we want to determine if type 1 AGN are indeed unobscured. To reach the goal we make use of optical HST and IR VLT (K-band) images. This combination provides the accurate positions of the nuclei (IR peaks) down to 10 mas. Moreover, we are able to construct dust extinction maps as IR-optical color images. These provide the morphology of the dusty absorber. Using narrow HST filters we also create Hα and O[iii] ionized gas maps. The dust (which is present in all of the examined objects) is in some cases able to obscure the nucleus, either partially or totally, which is supported by the finding of a shift between the IR and optical peaks. We conclude that the dusty torus is not the only cause of the obscuration. Therefore, we discuss if the torus is indeed necessary to explain the type 1 and 2 dichotomy.

description: Close binary systems are the progenitors to both Type Ia supernovae and the compact object mergers that can be detected via gravitational waves. To achieve a binary with a small radial separation, it is believed that the system likely undergoes common envelope (CE) evolution. Despite its importance, CE evolution may be one of the largest uncertainties in binary evolution due to a combination of computational challenges and a lack of observed benchmarks where both the post-CE and pre-CE conditions are known. Identifying post-CE systems in star clusters can partially circumvent this second issue by providing an independent age constraint on the system. For the first time, we conduct a systematic search for white dwarf (WD) and main-sequence (MS) binary systems in 299 Milky Way open star clusters. Coupling Gaia DR3 photometry and kinematics with multi-band photometry from Pan-STARRS1 and 2MASS, we apply a machine learning based approach and find 52 high-probability candidates in 38 open clusters. For a subset of our systems, we present follow-up spectroscopy from the Gemini and Lick Observatories and archival light curves from TESS, Kepler/K2 and the Zwicky Transient Facility. Examples of M-dwarfs with hot companions are spectroscopically observed, along with regular system variability. While the kinematics of our candidates are consistent with their host clusters, some systems have spatial positions offset relative to their hosts, potentially indicative of natal kicks. Ultimately, this catalogue is a first step to obtaining a set of observational benchmarks to better link post-CE systems to their pre-CE progenitors.

Significance of tensor force in pseudo-spin symmetry

description: We point out that the pseudo-spin symmetry (PSS) of nuclei significantly depends on the proton ($Z$) and neutron numbers ($N$), sometimes giving rise to the characteristic structures. By using the non-relativistic spherical Hartree-Fock calculation with a realistic tensor force, we show that the tensor force may be deeply relevant to the $Z$- and $N$-dependence of the PSS. While the PSS has often been discussed in the context of the relativistic symmetry, the tensor-force effects on the PSS sometimes look analogous to the $Z$-and $N$-dependence of the PSS in the relativistic mean-field (RMF) calculations without explicit tensor force. The observed variation of the $p0d_{3/2}$-$p1s_{1/2}$ levels from $^{40}$Ca to $^{34}$Si is consistent with the tensor-force-driven $Z$-dependence of the PSS, but not necessarily with the RMF result. Even though it is too early to be conclusive, this result elucidates the significance of the tensor force when discussing the PSS.

description: Fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) have attracted intensive attention for the realization of fractional quantum Hall states in the absence of an external magnetic field. Most of FCIs have been proposed on two-dimensional (2D) Euclidean lattice models with various boundary conditions. In this work, we investigate hyperbolic FCIs which are constructed in hyperbolic geometry with constant negative curvature. Through the studies on hyperbolic analogs of kagome lattices with hard-core bosons loaded into topological flat bands, we find convincing numerical evidences of two types of $ν=1/2$ FCI states, {\emph {i.e.}}, the conventional and unconventional FCIs. Multiple branches of edge excitations and geometry-dependent wave functions for both conventional and unconventional $ν=1/2$ FCI states are revealed, however, the geometric degree of freedom in these FCIs plays various roles. Additionally, a center-localized orbital plays a crucial role in the unconventional FCI state.

description: Topological superconductivity (TSC) is a promising platform to host Majorana zero mode (MZM) for topological quantum computing. Recently, the noble metal alloy AuSn$_{4}$ has been identified as an intrinsic surface TSC. However, the atomic visualization of its nontrivial surface states and MZM remains elusive. Here, we report the direct observation of unconventional surface states and vortex zero mode at the gold (Au) terminated surfaces of AuSn$_{4}$, by ultra-low scanning tunneling microscope/spectroscopy. Distinct from the trivial metallic bulk states at tin (Sn) surfaces, the Au terminated surface exhibits pronounced surface states near Fermi level. Our density functional theory calculations indicate that these states arise from unconventional Rashba bands, where two Fermi circles from different bands share identical helical spin textures, chiralities, and group velocities in the same direction. Furthermore, we find that although the superconducting gap, critical temperature, anisotropic in-plane critical field are almost identical on Au and Sn terminated surfaces, the in-gap bound states inside Abrikosov vortex cores show significant differences. The vortex on Sn terminated surfaces exhibits a conventional Caroli-de Gennes-Matricon bound state while the Au surface shows a sharp zero-energy core state with a long non-splitting distance, resembling an MZM in a non-quantum-limit condition. This distinction may result from the dominant contribution of unconventional Rashba bands near Fermi energy from Au terminated surface. Our results provide a new platform for studying unconventional Rashba band and MZM in superconductors.

description: The relationship between structural processing in music and language has received increasing interest in the last several years, spurred by the influential Shared Syntactic Integration Resource Hypothesis (SSIRH; Patel, 2003). According to this resource-sharing framework, music and language rely on separable syntactic representations but recruit shared cognitive resources to integrate these representations into evolving structures. The SSIRH is supported by findings of interactions between structural manipulations in music and language. However, other recent evidence suggests that such interactions can also arise with non-structural manipulations, and some recent neuroimaging studies report largely non-overlapping neural regions involved in processing musical and linguistic structure. These conflicting results raise the question of exactly what shared (and distinct) resources underlie musical and linguistic structural processing. This paper suggests that one shared resource is prefrontal cortical mechanisms of cognitive control, which are recruited to detect and resolve conflict that occurs when expectations are violated and interpretations must be revised. By this account, musical processing involves not just the incremental processing and integration of musical elements as they occur, but also the incremental generation of musical predictions and expectations, which must sometimes be overridden and revised in light of evolving musical input.

description: We report on the application of the recently developed Fano-ADC(2,2) method to compute total and partial Auger decay widths of molecular core-hole states, including explicit evaluation of double Auger decay branching ratios. The method utilizes the fast-convergent intermediate state representation to construct many-electron wave functions and is readily applicable to atoms, molecules and clusters. The ADC(2,2) scheme describes the initial and final states of the normal Auger decay consistently up to the second order of perturbation theory. In addition, excitations with two electrons in the continuum provide access to three-electron decay modes. The method yields decay widths and the Auger electron spectra in excellent agreement with the experiment, demonstrating the high accuracy of partial widths. The average relative error of double Auger decay branching ratios compared to available experimental data is about 30\%, which should be evaluated as an excellent result considering the universality of the method, the complexity of the double decay process and the neglection of nuclear motion in the present study.

description: Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a common yet potentially fatal condition, often leading to critical complications like pulmonary embolism. DVT is commonly diagnosed using Ultrasound (US) imaging, which can be inconsistent due to its high dependence on the operator's skill. Robotic US Systems (RUSs) aim to improve diagnostic test consistency but face challenges with the complex scanning pattern needed for DVT assessment, where precise control over US probe pressure is crucial for indirectly detecting occlusions. This work introduces an imitation learning method, based on Kernelized Movement Primitives (KMP), to standardize DVT US exams by training an autonomous robotic controller using sonographer demonstrations. A new recording device design enhances demonstration ergonomics, integrating with US probes and enabling seamless force and position data recording. KMPs are used to capture scanning skills, linking scan trajectory and force, enabling generalization beyond the demonstrations. Our approach, evaluated on synthetic models and volunteers, shows that the KMP-based RUS can replicate an expert's force control and image quality in DVT US examination. It outperforms previous methods using manually defined force profiles, improving exam standardization and reducing reliance on specialized sonographers.

description: The activation function plays a crucial role in model optimisation, yet the optimal choice remains unclear. For example, the Sigmoid activation is the de-facto activation in balanced classification tasks, however, in imbalanced classification, it proves inappropriate due to bias towards frequent classes. In this work, we delve deeper in this phenomenon by performing a comprehensive statistical analysis in the classification and intermediate layers of both balanced and imbalanced networks and we empirically show that aligning the activation function with the data distribution, enhances the performance in both balanced and imbalanced tasks. To this end, we propose the Adaptive Parametric Activation (APA) function, a novel and versatile activation function that unifies most common activation functions under a single formula. APA can be applied in both intermediate layers and attention layers, significantly outperforming the state-of-the-art on several imbalanced benchmarks such as ImageNet-LT, iNaturalist2018, Places-LT, CIFAR100-LT and LVIS and balanced benchmarks such as ImageNet1K, COCO and V3DET.

description: The fast pace at which new online services emerge leads to a rapid surge in the volume of network traffic. A recent approach that the research community has proposed to tackle this issue is in-network computing, which means that network devices perform more computations than before. As a result, processing demands become more varied, creating the need for flexible packet-processing architectures. State-of-the-art approaches provide a high degree of flexibility at the expense of performance for complex applications, or they ensure high performance but only for specific use cases. In order to address these limitations, we propose FlexCross. This flexible packet-processing design can process network traffic with diverse processing requirements at over 100 Gbit/s on FPGAs. Our design contains a crosspoint-queued crossbar that enables the execution of complex applications by forwarding incoming packets to the required processing engines in the specified sequence. The crossbar consists of distributed logic blocks that route incoming packets to the specified targets and resolve contentions for shared resources, as well as memory blocks for packet buffering. We implemented a prototype of FlexCross in Verilog and evaluated it via cycle-accurate register-transfer level simulations. We also conducted test runs with real-world network traffic on an FPGA. The evaluation results demonstrate that FlexCross outperforms state-of-the-art flexible packet-processing designs for different traffic loads and scenarios. The synthesis results show that our prototype consumes roughly 21% of the resources on a Virtex XCU55 UltraScale+ FPGA.

description: The Synthetic Corona Outflow Model (SynCOM), an empirical model, simulates the solar corona's dynamics to match high-resolution observations, providing a useful resource for testing velocity measurement algorithms. SynCOM generates synthetic images depicting radial variability in polarized brightness and includes stochastic elements for plasma outflows and instrumental noise. It employs a predefined flow velocity probability distribution and an adjustable signal-to-noise ratio to evaluate different data analysis methods for coronal flows. By adjusting parameters to match specific coronal and instrumental conditions, SynCOM offers a platform to assess these methods for determining coronal velocity and acceleration. Validating these measurements would help to understand solar wind origins and support missions such as the Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere (PUNCH). In this study, we demonstrate how SynCOM can be employed to assess the precision and performance of two different flow tracking methods. By providing a ground-truth based on observational data, we highlight the importance of SynCOM in confirming observational standards for detecting coronal flows.

description: The Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) is one of the most promising and widely used algorithms for exploiting the capabilities of current Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices. However, VQE algorithms suffer from a plethora of issues, such as barren plateaus, local minima, quantum hardware noise, and limited qubit connectivity, thus posing challenges for their successful deployment on hardware and simulators. In this work, we propose a VQE optimization strategy that builds upon recent advances in the literature, and exhibits very shallow circuit depths when applied to the specific system of interest, namely a model Hamiltonian representing a cuprate superconductor. These features make our approach a favorable candidate for generating good ground state approximations on current NISQ devices. Our findings illustrate the potential of VQE algorithmic development for leveraging the full capabilities of NISQ devices.

description: In this paper, we have investigated the phase space analysis in modified Galileon cosmology, where the Galileon term is considered a coupled scalar field, $F(ϕ)$. We focus on the exponential type function of $F(ϕ)$ and the three well-motivated potential functions $V(ϕ)$. We obtain the critical points of the autonomous system, along with their stability conditions and cosmological properties. The critical points of the autonomous system describe different phases of the Universe. In the results of our analysis, we have found the scaling solution for critical points, which determine different evolutionary eras for the Universe. The dark-energy-dominated critical points show stable behavior and indicate the Universe's late-time cosmic acceleration phase. Further, the results are examined with the cosmological data sets of the Hubble rate $H(z)$ and the Supernovae Ia.
