Highly coherent grain boundaries induced by local pseudo-mirror symmetry in $β$-Ga2O3

Grain boundaries have extensive influence on the performance of crystal materials. However, the atomic-scale structure and its relation with local and crystallographic symmetries remain elusive in low-symmetry crystals. Herein, we find that the local pseudo-mirror-symmetric atomic layer is the common physical origin of a series of highly coherent grain boundaries in the low-symmetry $β$-Ga2O3 crystal. These include the (100) twin boundary and an emerging series of $(h-1'0'2)/(h+1'0'\bar{2})$ coherent asymmetric grain boundaries (CAGBs). Owing to the local pseudo-mirror symmetry and the special geometric relation of the $β$-Ga2O3 conventional cell, these CAGBs place 80% of the boundary atoms in pseudo-coincident sites, exhibiting high coherence under the coincident-site lattice model. With a combination of density functional theory calculations, Czochralski growth experiment, and atomic-scale characterizations, the structure and stability of the $(002)/(20\bar{2})$-A CAGB are confirmed, with a boundary energy density as low as 0.36 J/m2. This CAGB is responsible for the spontaneous formation of a twinned defect facet at the surface steps during the epitaxy growth of $β$-Ga2O3, warranting a substrate orientation selection rule for $β$-Ga2O3. Through this study, we provide insights into the grain boundary physics in the low-symmetry $β$-Ga2O3 crystal while emphasizing the importance of the local pseudo-symmetries in the low-symmetry crystals.

Model free data assimilation with Takens embedding

In many practical scenarios, the dynamical system is not available and standard data assimilation methods are not applicable. Our objective is to construct a data-driven model for state estimation without the underlying dynamics. Instead of directly modeling the observation operator with noisy observation, we establish the state space model of the denoised observation. Through data assimilation techniques, the denoised observation information could be used to recover the original model state. Takens' theorem shows that an embedding of the partial and denoised observation is diffeomorphic to the attractor. This gives a theoretical base for estimating the model state using the reconstruction map. To realize the idea, the procedure consists of offline stage and online stage. In the offline stage, we construct the surrogate dynamics using dynamic mode decomposition with noisy snapshots to learn the transition operator for the denoised observation. The filtering distribution of the denoised observation can be estimated using adaptive ensemble Kalman filter, without knowledge of the model error and observation noise covariances. Then the reconstruction map can be established using the posterior mean of the embedding and its corresponding state. In the online stage, the observation is filtered with the surrogate dynamics. Then the online state estimation can be performed utilizing the reconstruction map and the filtered observation. Furthermore, the idea can be generalized to the nonparametric framework with nonparametric time series prediction methods for chaotic problems. The numerical results show the proposed method can estimate the state distribution without the physical dynamical system.

ClickDiff: Click to Induce Semantic Contact Map for Controllable Grasp Generation with Diffusion Models

Grasp generation aims to create complex hand-object interactions with a specified object. While traditional approaches for hand generation have primarily focused on visibility and diversity under scene constraints, they tend to overlook the fine-grained hand-object interactions such as contacts, resulting in inaccurate and undesired grasps. To address these challenges, we propose a controllable grasp generation task and introduce ClickDiff, a controllable conditional generation model that leverages a fine-grained Semantic Contact Map (SCM). Particularly when synthesizing interactive grasps, the method enables the precise control of grasp synthesis through either user-specified or algorithmically predicted Semantic Contact Map. Specifically, to optimally utilize contact supervision constraints and to accurately model the complex physical structure of hands, we propose a Dual Generation Framework. Within this framework, the Semantic Conditional Module generates reasonable contact maps based on fine-grained contact information, while the Contact Conditional Module utilizes contact maps alongside object point clouds to generate realistic grasps. We evaluate the evaluation criteria applicable to controllable grasp generation. Both unimanual and bimanual generation experiments on GRAB and ARCTIC datasets verify the validity of our proposed method, demonstrating the efficacy and robustness of ClickDiff, even with previously unseen objects. Our code is available at https://github.com/adventurer-w/ClickDiff.

Enhancing Low-Precision Sampling via Stochastic Gradient Hamiltonian Monte Carlo

Low-precision training has emerged as a promising low-cost technique to enhance the training efficiency of deep neural networks without sacrificing much accuracy. Its Bayesian counterpart can further provide uncertainty quantification and improved generalization accuracy. This paper investigates low-precision sampling via Stochastic Gradient Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (SGHMC) with low-precision and full-precision gradient accumulators for both strongly log-concave and non-log-concave distributions. Theoretically, our results show that, to achieve $ε$-error in the 2-Wasserstein distance for non-log-concave distributions, low-precision SGHMC achieves quadratic improvement ($\widetilde{\mathbf{O}}\left({ε^{-2}{μ^*}^{-2}\log^2\left({ε^{-1}}\right)}\right)$) compared to the state-of-the-art low-precision sampler, Stochastic Gradient Langevin Dynamics (SGLD) ($\widetilde{\mathbf{O}}\left({ε^{-4}{λ^{*}}^{-1}\log^5\left({ε^{-1}}\right)}\right)$). Moreover, we prove that low-precision SGHMC is more robust to the quantization error compared to low-precision SGLD due to the robustness of the momentum-based update w.r.t. gradient noise. Empirically, we conduct experiments on synthetic data, and {MNIST, CIFAR-10 \& CIFAR-100} datasets, which validate our theoretical findings. Our study highlights the potential of low-precision SGHMC as an efficient and accurate sampling method for large-scale and resource-limited machine learning.

Self-Training with Pseudo-Label Scorer for Aspect Sentiment Quad Prediction

Aspect Sentiment Quad Prediction (ASQP) aims to predict all quads (aspect term, aspect category, opinion term, sentiment polarity) for a given review, which is the most representative and challenging task in aspect-based sentiment analysis. A key challenge in the ASQP task is the scarcity of labeled data, which limits the performance of existing methods. To tackle this issue, we propose a self-training framework with a pseudo-label scorer, wherein a scorer assesses the match between reviews and their pseudo-labels, aiming to filter out mismatches and thereby enhance the effectiveness of self-training. We highlight two critical aspects to ensure the scorer's effectiveness and reliability: the quality of the training dataset and its model architecture. To this end, we create a human-annotated comparison dataset and train a generative model on it using ranking-based objectives. Extensive experiments on public ASQP datasets reveal that using our scorer can greatly and consistently improve the effectiveness of self-training. Moreover, we explore the possibility of replacing humans with large language models for comparison dataset annotation, and experiments demonstrate its feasibility. We release our code and data at https://github.com/HITSZ-HLT/ST-w-Scorer-ABSA .

Overcoming Medical Overuse with AI Assistance: An Experimental Investigation

This study evaluates the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in mitigating medical overtreatment, a significant issue characterized by unnecessary interventions that inflate healthcare costs and pose risks to patients. We conducted a lab-in-the-field experiment at a medical school, utilizing a novel medical prescription task, manipulating monetary incentives and the availability of AI assistance among medical students using a three-by-two factorial design. We tested three incentive schemes: Flat (constant pay regardless of treatment quantity), Progressive (pay increases with the number of treatments), and Regressive (penalties for overtreatment) to assess their influence on the adoption and effectiveness of AI assistance. Our findings demonstrate that AI significantly reduced overtreatment rates by up to 62% in the Regressive incentive conditions where (prospective) physician and patient interests were most aligned. Diagnostic accuracy improved by 17% to 37%, depending on the incentive scheme. Adoption of AI advice was high, with approximately half of the participants modifying their decisions based on AI input across all settings. For policy implications, we quantified the monetary (57%) and non-monetary (43%) incentives of overtreatment and highlighted AI's potential to mitigate non-monetary incentives and enhance social welfare. Our results provide valuable insights for healthcare administrators considering AI integration into healthcare systems.

The Dawn of AI-Native EDA: Opportunities and Challenges of Large Circuit Models

Within the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) domain, AI-driven solutions have emerged as formidable tools, yet they typically augment rather than redefine existing methodologies. These solutions often repurpose deep learning models from other domains, such as vision, text, and graph analytics, applying them to circuit design without tailoring to the unique complexities of electronic circuits. Such an AI4EDA approach falls short of achieving a holistic design synthesis and understanding, overlooking the intricate interplay of electrical, logical, and physical facets of circuit data. This paper argues for a paradigm shift from AI4EDA towards AI-native EDA, integrating AI at the core of the design process. Pivotal to this vision is the development of a multimodal circuit representation learning technique, poised to provide a comprehensive understanding by harmonizing and extracting insights from varied data sources, such as functional specifications, RTL designs, circuit netlists, and physical layouts. We champion the creation of large circuit models (LCMs) that are inherently multimodal, crafted to decode and express the rich semantics and structures of circuit data, thus fostering more resilient, efficient, and inventive design methodologies. Embracing this AI-native philosophy, we foresee a trajectory that transcends the current innovation plateau in EDA, igniting a profound shift-left in electronic design methodology. The envisioned advancements herald not just an evolution of existing EDA tools but a revolution, giving rise to novel instruments of design tools that promise to radically enhance design productivity and inaugurate a new epoch where the optimization of circuit performance, power, and area (PPA) is achieved not incrementally, but through leaps that redefine the benchmarks of electronic systems' capabilities.

FCNCP: A Coupled Nonnegative CANDECOMP/PARAFAC Decomposition Based on Federated Learning

In the field of brain science, data sharing across servers is becoming increasingly challenging due to issues such as industry competition, privacy security, and administrative procedure policies and regulations. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new methods for data analysis and processing that enable scientific collaboration without data sharing. In view of this, this study proposes to study and develop a series of efficient non-negative coupled tensor decomposition algorithm frameworks based on federated learning called FCNCP for the EEG data arranged on different servers. It combining the good discriminative performance of tensor decomposition in high-dimensional data representation and decomposition, the advantages of coupled tensor decomposition in cross-sample tensor data analysis, and the features of federated learning for joint modelling in distributed servers. The algorithm utilises federation learning to establish coupling constraints for data distributed across different servers. In the experiments, firstly, simulation experiments are carried out using simulated data, and stable and consistent decomposition results are obtained, which verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in this study. Then the FCNCP algorithm was utilised to decompose the fifth-order event-related potential (ERP) tensor data collected by applying proprioceptive stimuli on the left and right hands. It was found that contralateral stimulation induced more symmetrical components in the activation areas of the left and right hemispheres. The conclusions drawn are consistent with the interpretations of related studies in cognitive neuroscience, demonstrating that the method can efficiently process higher-order EEG data and that some key hidden information can be preserved.

RecDiffusion: Rectangling for Image Stitching with Diffusion Models

Image stitching from different captures often results in non-rectangular boundaries, which is often considered unappealing. To solve non-rectangular boundaries, current solutions involve cropping, which discards image content, inpainting, which can introduce unrelated content, or warping, which can distort non-linear features and introduce artifacts. To overcome these issues, we introduce a novel diffusion-based learning framework, \textbf{RecDiffusion}, for image stitching rectangling. This framework combines Motion Diffusion Models (MDM) to generate motion fields, effectively transitioning from the stitched image's irregular borders to a geometrically corrected intermediary. Followed by Content Diffusion Models (CDM) for image detail refinement. Notably, our sampling process utilizes a weighted map to identify regions needing correction during each iteration of CDM. Our RecDiffusion ensures geometric accuracy and overall visual appeal, surpassing all previous methods in both quantitative and qualitative measures when evaluated on public benchmarks. Code is released at https://github.com/lhaippp/RecDiffusion.

Regioselective On-Surface Synthesis of [3]Triangulene Graphene Nanoribbons

The integration of low-energy states into bottom-up engineered graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) is a robust strategy for realizing materials with tailored electronic band structure for nanoelectronics. Low-energy zero-modes (ZMs) can be introduced into nanographenes (NGs) by creating an imbalance between the two sublattices of graphene. This phenomenon is exemplified by the family of [n]triangulenes. Here, we demonstrate the synthesis of [3]triangulene-GNRs, a regioregular one-dimensional (1D) chain of [3]triangulenes linked by five-membered rings. Hybridization between ZMs on adjacent [3]triangulenes leads to the emergence of a narrow band gap, Eg = 0.7 eV, and topological end states that are experimentally verified using scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS). Tight-binding and first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations within the local spin density approximation (LSDA) corroborate our experimental observations. Our synthetic design takes advantage of a selective on-surface head-to-tail coupling of monomer building blocks enabling the regioselective synthesis of [3]triangulene-GNRs. Detailed ab initio theory provides insight into the mechanism of on-surface radical polymerization, revealing the pivotal role of Au-C bond formation/breakage in driving selectivity.

Enabling Mammography with Co-Robotic Ultrasound

Ultrasound (US) imaging is a vital adjunct to mammography in breast cancer screening and diagnosis, but its reliance on hand-held transducers often lacks repeatability and heavily depends on sonographers' skills. Integrating US systems from different vendors further complicates clinical standards and workflows. This research introduces a co-robotic US platform for repeatable, accurate, and vendor-independent breast US image acquisition. The platform can autonomously perform 3D volume scans or swiftly acquire real-time 2D images of suspicious lesions. Utilizing a Universal Robot UR5 with an RGB camera, a force sensor, and an L7-4 linear array transducer, the system achieves autonomous navigation, motion control, and image acquisition. The calibrations, including camera-mammogram, robot-camera, and robot-US, were rigorously conducted and validated. Governed by a PID force control, the robot-held transducer maintains a constant contact force with the compression plate during the scan for safety and patient comfort. The framework was validated on a lesion-mimicking phantom. Our results indicate that the developed co-robotic US platform promises to enhance the precision and repeatability of breast cancer screening and diagnosis. Additionally, the platform offers straightforward integration into most mammographic devices to ensure vendor-independence.

GDN: A Stacking Network Used for Skin Cancer Diagnosis

Skin cancer, the primary type of cancer that can be identified by visual recognition, requires an automatic identification system that can accurately classify different types of lesions. This paper presents GoogLe-Dense Network (GDN), which is an image-classification model to identify two types of skin cancer, Basal Cell Carcinoma, and Melanoma. GDN uses stacking of different networks to enhance the model performance. Specifically, GDN consists of two sequential levels in its structure. The first level performs basic classification tasks accomplished by GoogLeNet and DenseNet, which are trained in parallel to enhance efficiency. To avoid low accuracy and long training time, the second level takes the output of the GoogLeNet and DenseNet as the input for a logistic regression model. We compare our method with four baseline networks including ResNet, VGGNet, DenseNet, and GoogLeNet on the dataset, in which GoogLeNet and DenseNet significantly outperform ResNet and VGGNet. In the second level, different stacking methods such as perceptron, logistic regression, SVM, decision trees and K-neighbor are studied in which Logistic Regression shows the best prediction result among all. The results prove that GDN, compared to a single network structure, has higher accuracy in optimizing skin cancer detection.

FPHammer: A Device Identification Framework based on DRAM Fingerprinting

The device fingerprinting technique extracts fingerprints based on the hardware characteristics of the device to identify the device. The primary goal of device fingerprinting is to accurately and uniquely identify a device, which requires the generated device fingerprints to have good stability to achieve long-term tracking of the target device. However, the fingerprints generated by some existing fingerprinting technologies are not stable enough or change frequently, making it impossible to track the target device for a long time. In this paper, we present FPHammer, a novel DRAM-based fingerprinting technique. The device fingerprint generated by our technique has high stability and can be used to track the device for a long time. We leverage the Rowhammer technique to repeatedly and quickly access a row in DRAM to get bit flips in its adjacent row. We then construct a physical fingerprint of the device based on the locations of the collected bit flips. The evaluation results of the uniqueness and reliability of the physical fingerprint show that it can be used to distinguish devices with the same hardware and software configuration. The experimental results on device identification demonstrate that the physical fingerprints engendered by our innovative technique are inherently linked to the entirety of the device rather than just the DRAM module. Even if the device modifies software-level parameters such as MAC address and IP address or even reinstalls the operating system, we can accurately identify the target device. This demonstrates that FPHammer can generate stable fingerprints that are not affected by software layer parameters.
