The Impact of Bitcoin ETF Approval on Bitcoin's Hedging Properties Against Traditional Assets

The approval of the Bitcoin Spot ETF in January 2024 marked a transformative event in cryptocurrency markets, signaling increased institutional adoption and integration into traditional finance. This study examines Bitcoin's changing relationships with traditional assets, including equities, gold, and fiat currencies, following this milestone. Using rolling correlation analysis, Chow tests, and DCC-GARCH models, we found that Bitcoin's correlation with the S\&P 500 increased significantly post-ETF approval, indicating stronger alignment with equities. Its relationship with gold stabilized near zero, while its correlation with the U.S. Dollar Index remained consistently negative, reflecting its continued independence from fiat currencies. These findings offer insights into Bitcoin's evolving role in portfolios, implications for market stability, and future research opportunities on cryptocurrency integration into traditional financial systems.

Survey of the Edge Radial Electric Field in L-mode TCV Plasmas using Doppler Backscattering

A Doppler backscattering (DBS) diagnostic has recently been installed on the Tokamak à Configuration Variable (TCV) to facilitate the study of edge turbulence and flow shear in a versatile experimental environment. The dual channel V-band DBS system is coupled to TCV's quasi-optical diagnostic launcher, providing access to the upper low-field side region of the plasma cross-section. Verifications of the DBS measurements are presented. The DBS equilibrium $v_\perp$ profiles are found to compare favorably with gas puff imaging (GPI) measurements and to the $E_r$ inferred from the radial force balance of the carbon impurity. The radial structure of the edge $E_r \times B$ equilibrium flow and its dependencies are investigated across a representative set of L-mode TCV discharges, by varying density, auxiliary heating and magnetic configuration.

Cat-Eye Inspired Active-Passive-Composite Aperture-Shared Sub-Terahertz Meta-Imager for Non-Interactive Concealed Object Detection

Within the feline eye, a distinctive tapetum lucidum as a mirror resides posterior to the retina, reflecting the incident rays to simulate light source emission. This secondary emission property enables felines to be highly sensitive to light, possessing remarkable visual capabilities even in dark settings. Drawing inspiration from this natural phenomenon, we propose an active-passive-composite sub-terahertz meta-imager integrated with a bifocus metasurface, a high-sensitivity radiometer, and a low-power signal hidden radiation source. Benefiting from its aperture-shared advantage, this advanced fusion imaging system, enabled to be deployed by a simplified portable hardware platform, allows for the concurrent acquisition of active and passive electromagnetic properties to extend the target detection category and realize multi-mode fusion perception. Notably, it also enables the extraction of radiation and reflection characteristics without additional calibration modules. Experiments demonstrate the multi-target fusion imaging and localized information decoupling with the tailored field of view and emission energy. This compact and multi-mode fusion imaging system may have plenty of potential for airplane navigation positioning, abnormal monitoring, and non-interactive concealed security checks.

Learning-Based Motion Planning with Mixture Density Networks

The trade-off between computation time and path optimality is a key consideration in motion planning algorithms. While classical sampling based algorithms fall short of computational efficiency in high dimensional planning, learning based methods have shown great potential in achieving time efficient and optimal motion planning. The SOTA learning based motion planning algorithms utilize paths generated by sampling based methods as expert supervision data and train networks via regression techniques. However, these methods often overlook the important multimodal property of the optimal paths in the training set, making them incapable of finding good paths in some scenarios. In this paper, we propose a Multimodal Neuron Planner (MNP) based on the mixture density networks that explicitly takes into account the multimodality of the training data and simultaneously achieves time efficiency and path optimality. For environments represented by a point cloud, MNP first efficiently compresses the point cloud into a latent vector by encoding networks that are suitable for processing point clouds. We then design multimodal planning networks which enables MNP to learn and predict multiple optimal solutions. Simulation results show that our method outperforms SOTA learning based method MPNet and advanced sampling based methods IRRT* and BIT*.

A Unified Framework of Graph Information Bottleneck for Robustness and Membership Privacy

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved great success in modeling graph-structured data. However, recent works show that GNNs are vulnerable to adversarial attacks which can fool the GNN model to make desired predictions of the attacker. In addition, training data of GNNs can be leaked under membership inference attacks. This largely hinders the adoption of GNNs in high-stake domains such as e-commerce, finance and bioinformatics. Though investigations have been made in conducting robust predictions and protecting membership privacy, they generally fail to simultaneously consider the robustness and membership privacy. Therefore, in this work, we study a novel problem of developing robust and membership privacy-preserving GNNs. Our analysis shows that Information Bottleneck (IB) can help filter out noisy information and regularize the predictions on labeled samples, which can benefit robustness and membership privacy. However, structural noises and lack of labels in node classification challenge the deployment of IB on graph-structured data. To mitigate these issues, we propose a novel graph information bottleneck framework that can alleviate structural noises with neighbor bottleneck. Pseudo labels are also incorporated in the optimization to minimize the gap between the predictions on the labeled set and unlabeled set for membership privacy. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that our method can give robust predictions and simultaneously preserve membership privacy.

Visual News: Benchmark and Challenges in News Image Captioning

We propose Visual News Captioner, an entity-aware model for the task of news image captioning. We also introduce Visual News, a large-scale benchmark consisting of more than one million news images along with associated news articles, image captions, author information, and other metadata. Unlike the standard image captioning task, news images depict situations where people, locations, and events are of paramount importance. Our proposed method can effectively combine visual and textual features to generate captions with richer information such as events and entities. More specifically, built upon the Transformer architecture, our model is further equipped with novel multi-modal feature fusion techniques and attention mechanisms, which are designed to generate named entities more accurately. Our method utilizes much fewer parameters while achieving slightly better prediction results than competing methods. Our larger and more diverse Visual News dataset further highlights the remaining challenges in captioning news images.

Unsupervised Deep Keyphrase Generation

Keyphrase generation aims to summarize long documents with a collection of salient phrases. Deep neural models have demonstrated a remarkable success in this task, capable of predicting keyphrases that are even absent from a document. However, such abstractiveness is acquired at the expense of a substantial amount of annotated data. In this paper, we present a novel method for keyphrase generation, AutoKeyGen, without the supervision of any human annotation. Motivated by the observation that an absent keyphrase in one document can appear in other places, in whole or in part, we first construct a phrase bank by pooling all phrases in a corpus. With this phrase bank, we then draw candidate absent keyphrases for each document through a partial matching process. To rank both types of candidates, we combine their lexical- and semantic-level similarities to the input document. Moreover, we utilize these top-ranked candidates as to train a deep generative model for more absent keyphrases. Extensive experiments demonstrate that AutoKeyGen outperforms all unsupervised baselines and can even beat strong supervised methods in certain cases.

An Energy Efficient Authentication Scheme using Chebyshev Chaotic Map for Smart Grid Environment

As one of the important applications of Smart grid, charging between electric vehicles has attracted much attention. However, authentication between vehicle users and an aggregator may be vulnerable to various attacks due to the usage of wireless communications. In order to reduce the computational costs yet preserve required security, the Chebyshev chaotic map based authentication schemes are proposed. However, the security requirements of Chebyshev polynomials bring a new challenge to the design of authentication schemes based on Chebyshev chaotic maps. To solve this issue, we propose a practical Chebyshev polynomial algorithm by using a binary exponentiation algorithm based on square matrix to achieve secure and efficient Chebyshev polynomial computation. We further apply the proposed algorithm to construct an energy-efficient authentication and key agreement scheme for smart grid environments. Compared with state-of-the-art schemes, the proposed authentication scheme effectively reduces the computational costs and communication costs by adopting the proposed Chebyshev polynomial algorithm. Furthermore, the ProVerif tool is employed to analyze the security of the proposed authentication scheme. Our experimental results justified that our proposed authentication scheme can outperform state-of-the-art schemes in terms of the computational overhead while achieving privacy protection.
