description: Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) offer the potential to benefit 3D reconstruction tasks, including aerial photogrammetry. However, the scalability and accuracy of the inferred geometry are not well-documented for large-scale aerial assets,since such datasets usually result in very high memory consumption and slow convergence.. In this paper, we aim to scale the NeRF on large-scael aerial datasets and provide a thorough geometry assessment of NeRF. Specifically, we introduce a location-specific sampling technique as well as a multi-camera tiling (MCT) strategy to reduce memory consumption during image loading for RAM, representation training for GPU memory, and increase the convergence rate within tiles. MCT decomposes a large-frame image into multiple tiled images with different camera models, allowing these small-frame images to be fed into the training process as needed for specific locations without a loss of accuracy. We implement our method on a representative approach, Mip-NeRF, and compare its geometry performance with threephotgrammetric MVS pipelines on two typical aerial datasets against LiDAR reference data. Both qualitative and quantitative results suggest that the proposed NeRF approach produces better completeness and object details than traditional approaches, although as of now, it still falls short in terms of accuracy.

description: This paper presents a novel theoretical framework within the conceptual structure of Helmas Theory to explain the evolution of cognition. It introduces three principles: the Brain Singularity Principle, which posits self-awareness as a singularity in the progression of awareness states; the Dimensional Precedence Principle, which establishes dimensional awareness as the foundational framework for higher-order cognition; and the Polylogical Emergence Principle, which describes reasoning and polylogic as emergent capabilities derived from the integration and interaction of multiple cognitive attractors. By situating these principles within Helmas Theory's cosmological and temporal framework, the paper demonstrates how cognition progresses from dimensional processing to self-awareness and finally to reasoning and abstraction. The implications span neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and the philosophy of consciousness, offering testable predictions and pathways for future exploration of these ideas.

description: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) maps gene expression heterogeneity within a tissue. However, identifying biological signals in this data is challenging due to confounding technical factors, sparsity, and high dimensionality. Data factorization methods address this by separating and identifying signals in the data, such as gene expression programs, but the resulting factors must be manually interpreted. We developed Single-Cell Interpretable REsidual Decomposition (sciRED) to improve the interpretation of scRNA-seq factor analysis. sciRED removes known confounding effects, uses rotations to improve factor interpretability, maps factors to known covariates, identifies unexplained factors that may capture hidden biological phenomena and determines the genes and biological processes represented by the resulting factors. We apply sciRED to multiple scRNA-seq datasets and identify sex-specific variation in a kidney map, discern strong and weak immune stimulation signals in a PBMC dataset, reduce ambient RNA contamination in a rat liver atlas to help identify strain variation, and reveal rare cell type signatures and anatomical zonation gene programs in a healthy human liver map. These demonstrate that sciRED is useful in characterizing diverse biological signals within scRNA-seq data.

description: The discovery of graphene led to a burst in search for 2D materials originating from layered atomic crystals coupled by van der Waals force. While bulk bismuth crystals share this layered crystal structure, unlike other group V members of the periodic table, its interlayer bonds are stronger such that traditional mechanical cleavage and exfoliation techniques have shown to be inefficient. In this work, we present a novel mechanical cleavage method for exfoliating bismuth by utilizing the stress concentration effect induced by micro-trench SiO2 structures. As a result, the exfoliated bismuth flakes can achieve thicknesses down to the sub-10 nm range which are analyzed by AFM and Raman spectroscopy.

description: The World Health Organization estimates that smoking-related lung cancer account for more than 7 million deaths worldwide each year. Cigarette smoking is also a risk factor for various health issues including respiratory as well as other infections, osteoporosis, reproductive disorders, adverse postoperative events and delayed wound healing, duodenal and gastric ulcers, and diabetes. Because of these dangers, many tobacco users wish to quit smoking. Therefore, understanding the genetic factors underlying tobacco addiction could be a key step in developing  effective therapies to fight it. The challenge lies in accurately predicting the phenotype solely on individual genetic variants. Studies indicate that the heritability of smoking ranges from 21% to 84% suggesting that it is possible to identify genetic factors associated with tobacco addiction. Approaches such as genome-wide Linkage analysis, candidate gene-based association, and genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

In our study, we investigated the application of machine learning (ML) in bioinformatics, focusing on developing classification models to distinguish smokers from non-smokers based on genetic profiles. We used a dataset from the GEO database, which included genetic information and smoking status of African-American participants. The data underwent pre-processing, including cleaning and imputing missing values. Feature selection techniques were applied to identify the most relevant genetic variants for inclusion in our ML algorithms.

We employed various ML methods, such as support vector machines (SVM) and logistic regression, to train classification models on the given training dataset. Specifically, our study focused on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based phenotype profiling of individuals of African origin. Tools such as Elastic Net (EN) were used for feature selection, and Logistic Regression (LR) was applied to classify smoking status based on SNP data. Additionally, we performed functional annotation to identify the genes associated with highly ranked SNPs and assess their relevance to nicotine dependence. 

Our results demonstrated robust classification performance, especially in the logistic regression and SVM models, which effectively discriminated smokers from nonsmokers. Identified SNPs have the potential to significantly impact smoking prevention efforts.

description: We propose a framework for classifying the capabilities and behavior of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) models and their precursors. This framework introduces levels of AGI performance, generality, and autonomy, providing a common language to compare models, assess risks, and measure progress along the path to AGI. To develop our framework, we analyze existing definitions of AGI, and distill six principles that a useful ontology for AGI should satisfy. With these principles in mind, we propose "Levels of AGI" based on depth (performance) and breadth (generality) of capabilities, and reflect on how current systems fit into this ontology. We discuss the challenging requirements for future benchmarks that quantify the behavior and capabilities of AGI models against these levels. Finally, we discuss how these levels of AGI interact with deployment considerations such as autonomy and risk, and emphasize the importance of carefully selecting Human-AI Interaction paradigms for responsible and safe deployment of highly capable AI systems.

description: We find a new finite algorithm for evaluation of Lipschitz-free $p$-space norm in finite-dimensional Lipschitz-free $p$-spaces. We use this algorithm to deal with the problem of whether given $p$-metric spaces $N\subset M$, the canonical embedding of $\mathcal{F}_p(N)$ into $\mathcal{F}_p(M)$ is an isomorphism. The most significant result in this direction is that the answer is positive if $N\subset M$ are metric spaces.

description: We reconsider the classical Schwarzschild solution in the context of a Janus cosmological model. We show that the central singularity can be eliminated through a simple coordinate change and that the subsequent transit from one fold to the other is accompanied by mass inversion. In such scenario matter swallowed by black holes could be ejected as invisible negative mass and dispersed in space.

description: This paper studies quantum symmetric pairs $(\widetilde{\mathbf U}, \widetilde{\mathbf U}^\imath )$ associated with quasi-split Satake diagrams of affine type $A_{2r-1}, D_r, E_{6}$ with a nontrivial diagram involution fixing the affine simple node. Various real and imaginary root vectors for the universal $\imath$quantum groups $\widetilde{\mathbf U}^\imath$ are constructed with the help of the relative braid group action, and they are used to construct affine rank one subalgebras of $\widetilde{\mathbf U}^\imath$. We then establish relations among real and imaginary root vectors in different affine rank one subalgebras and use them to give a Drinfeld type presentation of $\widetilde{\mathbf U}^\imath$.

description: We analyse the implementation of educational commons-based scenarios and theopportunities of building educational communities based on the paradigm of the commonsand the feminist logic of care and interdependence. Departing from the conceptualisation ofthe three pillars of the structure of the commons (community, common good or resource andgovernance), the notion of educational commons (Pechtelidis 2020) derives from thedevelopments around the digital commons (Pantazis 2022) and the anticapitalist commons(Caffentzis y Federici, 2014).

description: Integer and fractional Chern insulators have been extensively explored in correlated flat band models. Recently, the prediction and experimental observation of fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) states with spontaneous time-reversal-symmetry breaking have garnered attention. While the thermodynamics of integer quantum anomalous Hall (IQAH) states have been systematically studied, our theoretical knowledge on thermodynamic properties of FQAH states has been severely limited. Here, we delve into the general thermodynamic response and collective excitations of both IQAH and FQAH states within the paradigmatic flat Chern-band model with remote band considered. Our key findings include: i) In both $ν$ = 1 IQAH and $ν$ = 1/3 FQAH states, even without spin fluctuations, the charge-neutral collective excitations would lower the onset temperature of these topological states, to a value significantly smaller than the charge gap, due to band-mixing and multi-particle scattering; ii) By employing large-scale thermodynamic simulations in FQAH states in the presence of strong inter-band mixing between C = $\pm1$ bands, we find that the lowest collective excitations manifest as the zero-momentum excitons in the IQAH state, whereas in the FQAH state, they take the form of magneto-rotons with finite momentum; iii) The unique charge oscillations in FQAH states are exhibited with distinct experimental signatures, which we propose to detect in future experiments.

description: The discovery of superconductivity in La3Ni2O7 has attracted significant research interest in the field of nickelate superconductors. Despite extensive studies on pristine La3Ni2O7, the impact of oxygen vacancies (VO), a common type of intrinsic defect in oxides, on electronic structures and superconductivity in La3Ni2O7 remains unclear. In this article, we identify the most energetically favorable location for VO formation as the oxygen atom connecting the NiO6 bilayer, resulting in a significant reduction in the lattice constant along the c-axis. Interestingly, the electronic structure undergoes notable changes, particularly for the Ni dz2 and Ni dx2-y2 orbitals. The Ni dz2 orbitals change from partially filled in the pristine La3Ni2O7 to completely filled in the presence of VO, leading to a considerable decrease of its proportion near the Fermi level. Conversely, the proportion of Ni dx2-y2 states increases due to the orbital localization and slight upward shift. Additionally, we observe a significant increase in the hopping of intra-bilayer Ni dz2 orbitals when the VO exists, but with an opposite sign, which differs greatly from the previous understanding. The inter-orbital hopping between Ni dz2 and Ni dx2-y2 orbitals also changes its sign in the presence of VO. Our results indicate that the formation of VO may be harmful to the superconductivity in La3Ni2O7, given the general assumption for the critical role of Ni dz2 in generating superconductivity. Furthermore, we suggest that Ce3Ni2O7, which shares similar electronic structures to La3Ni2O7 but has a larger lattice volume, may be a better candidate for nickelate superconductor due to its lower VO concentration.

description: Antiferromagnetic (AFM) spintronics has emerged as a subfield of spintronics, where an AFM Néel vector is used as a state variable. Efficient electric control and detection of the Néel vector are critical for spintronic applications. This review article features fundamental properties of AFM tunnel junctions (AFMTJs) as spintronic devices where such electric control and detection can be realized. We emphasize critical requirements for observing a large tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) effect in AFMTJs with collinear and noncollinear AFM electrodes, such as a momentum-dependent spin polarization and Néel spin currents. We further discuss spin torques in AFMTJs that are capable of Néel vector switching. Overall, AFMTJs have potential to become a new standard for spintronics providing larger magnetoresistive effects, few orders of magnitude faster switching speed, and much higher packing density than conventional magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs).

description: 2.2. Characterization of TlTPS820 expressed in N. benthamiana
Leaves from N. benthamiana expressing Tl TPS820 were extracted with hexane and analyzed by GC-MS. The analysis yielded a sesquiterpenoid profile identical to Tg TPS2 (Fig. 1). The main product of Tg TPS2 is epikunzeaol (1) (Fig. 2), thus Tl TPS820 is also an epikunzeaol synthase and an orthologue of Tg TPS2. As described previously, the high injection port temperature at 250 ̊C lead to cope-rearrangement of 1 (Andersen et al., 2017). Thus, 1 was partly degraded to two unknown alcohols .

description: We investigate the effects of bacterial activity on the mixing and transport properties of a passive scalar in time-periodic flows in experiments and in a simple model. We focus on the interactions between swimming E. coli and the Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) of the flow, which are computed from experimentally measured velocity fields. Experiments show that such interactions are non-trivial and can lead to transport barriers through which the scalar flux is significantly reduced. Using the Poincaré map, we show that these transport barriers coincide with the outermost members of elliptic LCSs known as Lagrangian vortex boundaries. Numerical simulations further show that elliptic LCSs can repel elongated swimmers and lead to swimmer depletion within Lagrangian coherent vortices. A simple mechanism shows that such depletion is due to the preferential alignment of elongated swimmers with the tangents of elliptic LCSs. Our results provide insights into understanding the transport of microorganisms in complex flows with dynamical topological features from a Lagrangian viewpoint.
