Central Similarity Multi-View Hashing for Multimedia Retrieval

Hash representation learning of multi-view heterogeneous data is the key to improving the accuracy of multimedia retrieval. However, existing methods utilize local similarity and fall short of deeply fusing the multi-view features, resulting in poor retrieval accuracy. Current methods only use local similarity to train their model. These methods ignore global similarity. Furthermore, most recent works fuse the multi-view features via a weighted sum or concatenation. We contend that these fusion methods are insufficient for capturing the interaction between various views. We present a novel Central Similarity Multi-View Hashing (CSMVH) method to address the mentioned problems. Central similarity learning is used for solving the local similarity problem, which can utilize the global similarity between the hash center and samples. We present copious empirical data demonstrating the superiority of gate-based fusion over conventional approaches. On the MS COCO and NUS-WIDE, the proposed CSMVH performs better than the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin (up to 11.41% mean Average Precision (mAP) improvement).

Theory of all-coupling angulon for molecules rotating in many-body environment

The formation of angulon, stemming from the rotor (molecule or impurity) rotating in the quantum many-body field, adds a new member in the quasiparticle's family and has aroused intensively interests in multiple research fields. However, the analysis of the coupling strength between the rotor and its hosting environment remains a challenging task both in theory and experiment. Here, we develop the all-coupling theory of the angulon by introducing an unitary transformation, where the renormalization of the rotational constants for different molecules in the helium nanodroplets are reproduced, getting excellent agreement with the collected experimental data during the past decades. Moreover, the strength of molecule-helium coupling and the effective radius of the solvation shell corotating along with the molecular rotor could be estimated qualitatively. This model not only provides the significant enlightenment for analyzing the rotational spectroscopy of molecules in the phononic environment, but also provides a new method to study the transfer of the phonon angular momentum in angulon frame.

Deep Metric Multi-View Hashing for Multimedia Retrieval

Learning the hash representation of multi-view heterogeneous data is an important task in multimedia retrieval. However, existing methods fail to effectively fuse the multi-view features and utilize the metric information provided by the dissimilar samples, leading to limited retrieval precision. Current methods utilize weighted sum or concatenation to fuse the multi-view features. We argue that these fusion methods cannot capture the interaction among different views. Furthermore, these methods ignored the information provided by the dissimilar samples. We propose a novel deep metric multi-view hashing (DMMVH) method to address the mentioned problems. Extensive empirical evidence is presented to show that gate-based fusion is better than typical methods. We introduce deep metric learning to the multi-view hashing problems, which can utilize metric information of dissimilar samples. On the MIR-Flickr25K, MS COCO, and NUS-WIDE, our method outperforms the current state-of-the-art methods by a large margin (up to 15.28 mean Average Precision (mAP) improvement).

Optical absorption of angulon in metal halide perovskites

We theoretically study the optical absorption of an angulon in the metal halide perovskites (MHP) based on the improved Devreese-Huybrechts-Lemmens model, where the formation of quasiparticle angulon states originates from the organic cation rotating in the inorganic octahedral cage of MHP. We find that the resonance optical absorption peaks are appeared when the energy of incident photon matches the quantum levels of angulon. Moreover, the intensity of absorption depends on the quantum states of phonon angular momentum. These theoretical results provide significant insight to study the redistribution of angular momenta for the rotational molecules immersed into the many-body environment.

Mobile defects as mediated states for charge-carrier trapping in metal halide perovskites quantum dots

The migration motion of defects in metal halide perovskites quantum dots (MHPQDs) results in charge-carrier trapping become more complicated. We study two-step trapping mediated by mobile defects between the ground state of MHPQDs and a fixed-depth defect using a full-configuration defect method, where all possible trapping processes mediated by these mobile defects could be reproduced and the fastest channels among them are picked out. We find that these two-step trapping processes could keep more one order of magnitude faster than these direct ones as mobile defect with the appropriate localization strength, which implies that these indirect trapping should play the crucial rule to determine the non-radiative recombination losses. These results provide the significant explanation for studying non-radiation processes of carriers in the presence of the migration defects in recent experiments. Moreover, this model will be available to analyze some key performance related defects in electronic devices.

Microscopic theory of Raman scattering for the rotational organic cation in metal halide perovskites

A gap exists in microscopic understanding the dynamic properties of the rotational organic cation (ROC) in the inorganic framework of the metal halide perovskites (MHP) to date. Herein, we develop a microscopic theory of Raman scattering for the ROC in MHP based on the angular momentum of a ROC exchanging with that of the photon and phonon. We systematically present the selection rules for the angular momentum transfer among three lowest rotational levels. We find that the phonon angular momentum that arising from the inorganic framework and its specific values could be directly manifested by Stokes (or anti-Stokes) shift. Moreover, the initial orientation of the ROC and its preferentially rotational directions could be judged in Raman spectra. This study lays the theoretical foundation for the high-precision resolution and manipulation of molecular rotation immersed in many-body environment by Raman technique.

Charge carriers trapping by the full-configuration defects in metal halide perovskites quantum dots

Metal halide perovskites quantum dots (MHPQDs) have aroused enormous interesting in the photovoltaic and photoelectric because of their marvelous properties and size characteristics. However, one of key problems that how to systematically analyze charge carriers trapping by different defects is still a challenge task. Here, we study nonradiation multiphonon processes of the charge carrier trapping by various defects in MHPQDs based on the well-known Huang-Rhys model, in which a method of fullconfiguration defect, including different defect species with variable depth and lattice relaxation strength, is developed by introducing a localization parameter in the quantum defect model. With the help of this method, these fastest trapping channels for charge carriers transferring from the quantum dot ground state to different defects are found. Furthermore, the dependences of the trapping time on the radius of quantum dot, the defect depth and temperature are given. These results not only enrich the knowledge of charge carrier trapping processes by defects, but enlighten the designs of MHPQDs-based photovoltaic and photoelectric devices.

VReBERT: A Simple and Flexible Transformer for Visual Relationship Detection

Visual Relationship Detection (VRD) impels a computer vision model to 'see' beyond an individual object instance and 'understand' how different objects in a scene are related. The traditional way of VRD is first to detect objects in an image and then separately predict the relationship between the detected object instances. Such a disjoint approach is prone to predict redundant relationship tags (i.e., predicate) between the same object pair with similar semantic meaning, or incorrect ones that have a similar meaning to the ground truth but are semantically incorrect. To remedy this, we propose to jointly train a VRD model with visual object features and semantic relationship features. To this end, we propose VReBERT, a BERT-like transformer model for Visual Relationship Detection with a multi-stage training strategy to jointly process visual and semantic features. We show that our simple BERT-like model is able to outperform the state-of-the-art VRD models in predicate prediction. Furthermore, we show that by using the pre-trained VReBERT model, our model pushes the state-of-the-art zero-shot predicate prediction by a significant margin (+8.49 R@50 and +8.99 R@100).

Strongly lensed type Ia supernovae as a precise late-universe probe of measuring the Hubble constant and cosmic curvature

Strongly lensed type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are expected to have some advantages in measuring time delays of multiple images, and so they have a great potential to be developed into a powerful late-universe cosmological probe. In this paper, we simulate a sample of lensed SNe Ia with time-delay measurements in the era of the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Based on the distance sum rule, we use lensed SNe Ia to implement model-independent constraints on the Hubble constant $H_0$ and cosmic curvature parameter $Ω_K$ in the late universe. We find that if 20 lensed SNe Ia could be observed, the constraint on $H_{0}$ is better than the measurement by the SH0ES collaboration. When the event number of lensed SNe Ia increases to 100, the constraint precision of $H_{0}$ is comparable with the result from Planck 2018 data. Considering 200 lensed SNe Ia events as the optimistic estimation, we obtain $ΔH_0=0.33$ $\rm km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}$ and $ΔΩ_K=0.053$. In addition, we also simulate lensed quasars in different scenarios to make a comparison and we find that they are still a useful cosmological probe even though the constraint precision from them is much less than that obtained from lensed SNe Ia. In the era of LSST, the measurements of time delay from both lensed SNe Ia and lensed quasars are expected to yield the results of $ΔH_0=0.26 ~\rm km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}$ and $ΔΩ_K=0.044$.

Cosmological Parameter Estimation Using Current and Future Observations of Strong Gravitational Lensing

Remarkable development of cosmology is benefited from the increasingly improved measurements of cosmic distances including absolute distances and relative distances. In recent years, however, the emerged cosmological tensions motivate us to explore the independent and precise late-universe probes. The two observational effects of strong gravitational lensing (SGL), the velocity dispersions of lens galaxies and the time delays between multiple images, can provide measurements of relative and absolute distances respectively, and their combination is possible to break the degeneracies between cosmological parameters and enable tight constraints on cosmological parameters. In this paper, we combine the observed 130 SGL systems with velocity-dispersion measurements and 7 SGL systems with time-delay measurements to constrain dark-energy cosmological models. It is found that the combination of the two effects does not significantly break the degeneracies between cosmological parameters as expected. However, with the simulations of 8000 SGL systems with well-measured velocity dispersions and 55 SGL systems with well-measured time delays based on the forthcoming LSST survey, we find that the combination of two effects can significantly break the parameter degeneracies, and make the constraint precision of cosmological parameters meet the standard of precision cosmology. We conclude that the observations of SGL will become a useful late-universe probe for precisely measuring cosmological parameters.

Infrared optical absorption of Frohlich polaron in metal halide perovskites

The formation of Frohlich polaron in metal halide perovskites, arising from the charge carrierlongitudinal optical (LO) phonon coupling, has been proposed to explain their exceptional properties, but the effective identification of polaron in these materials is still a challenge task. Herein, we theoretically present the infrared optical absorption of Frohlich polaron based on Huang-Rhys model. We find that multiphonon overtones are appeared as the energy of incident photon matches the multiple LO phonons, wherein the average phonon numbers of a polaron can be directly evaluated by the order of the strongest overtone. These multiphonon structures sensitively depend on the scale of electronic distribution in the ground state and the dimensionality of the perovskite materials, which gives the enlightenment for the effective modulation of competing processes between the polaron formation and carrier cooling. Moreover, the order of the strongest overtone shifts to the higher ones with temperature, providing a potential proof of the carriers mobility affected by LO phonons scattering. The present model not only suggests a direct way to verify Frohlich polaron, but also enriches the understanding of the polaron properties in metal halide perovskites.

Self-trapped interlayer excitons in van der Waals heterostructures

The self-trapped state (STS) of interlayer exciton (IX) has been aroused enormous interesting owing to their significant impact on the fundamental properties of the van derWaals heterostructures (vdWHs). Nevertheless, the microscopic mechanisms of STS are still controversial. Herein, we study the corrections of the binding energies of the IXs due to the exciton-interface optical phonon coupling in four kinds of vdWHs and find that these IXs are in the STS for the appropriate ratio of the electron and hole effective masses. We show that these STSs could be classified into the type I with the increasing binding energy in the tens of meV range, which are very agreement with the red-shift of the IXs spectra in experiments, and the type II with the decreasing binding energy, which provides a possible explanation for the blue-shift and broad linewidth of the IXs spectra in the low temperature. Moreover, these two types of self-trapped IXs could be transformed into each other by adjusting the structural parameters of vdWHs. These results not only provide an in-depth understanding for the self-trapped mechanism of IX, but also shed light on the modulations of IXs in vdWHs.

Inelastic electron transfer in olfaction: multiphonons processes

Inelastic electron transfer being regarded as one of the potential mechanisms to explain the odorant recognition in the atomic-scale processes is still a matter of intense debate. Here, we propose multiphonon processes of electrons transfer using the Markvart model and calculate their lifetimes with values of key parameters widely adopted in olfactory systems. We find that these multiphonon processes are as quickly as the single phonon process, which suggest that contributions from different phonon modes of odorant molecule for electrons transfer in olfaction should be included. Meanwhile, temperature dependence of electron transfer could be analyzed effectively based on the reorganization energy is expanded into the linewidth of multiphonon processes. Our theoretical results not only enrich the knowledge of the mechanism of the olfaction recognition, but also provide insights for quantum processes in the biological system.

Energy resonance transfer between quantum defects in metal halide perovskites

Quantum defects have shown to play an essential role for the non-radiative recombination in metal halide perovskites (MHPs). Nonetheless, the processes of charge transfer-assisted by defects are still ambiguous. Herein, we theoretically study the non-radiative multiphonon processes among different types of quantum defects in MHPs using Markvart model for the induced mechanisms of electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions, respectively. We find that charge carrier can transfer between the neighboring levels of the same type shallow defects by multiphonon processes, but it will be distinctly suppressed with the increasing of the defect depth. For the non-radiation multiphonon transitions between donor- and acceptor-like defects, the processes are very fast and independence of the defect depth, which provide a possible explanation for the blinking phenomena of photoluminescence spectra in recent experiment. We also discuss the temperature dependence of these multiphonon processes and find that their variational trends depend on the comparison of Huang-Rhys factor with the emitted phonon number. These theoretical results fill some gaps of defect-assisted non-radiative processes in the perovskites materials.

An explanation for high defect tolerance in metal halide perovskite quantum dots

We propose Auger-like process assisted by quantum defects in metal halide perovskite quantum dots, where a charge carrier in the ground state of the quantum dot is trapped by quantum defects, resulting in another charge carrier in defect is excited and returns back to the ground state of the quantum dot. We find that the whole process is on the femtosecond scale. More importantly, the process is independent of the depth and species of the defects, which is in good agreement with the recent theoretical prediction using ab initio nonadiabatic molecular dynamics simulation. This Auger-like process may provide a potential explanation of high defect tolerance in metal halide perovskite materials.
