Signs of Struggle: Spotting Cognitive Distortions across Language and Register
Rising mental health issues among youth have increased interest in automated approaches for detecting early signs of psychological distress in digital text. One key focus is the identification of cognitive distortions, irrational thought patterns that have a role in aggravating mental distress. Early detection of these distortions may enable timely, low-cost interventions. While prior work has focused on English clinical data, we present the first in-depth study of cross-lingual and cross-regis…

Cadus Kurs ist sehr fordernd aber unfassbar lehrreich. Von Mission Prep, Teamstrukturaufbau, Komm-Strukturen, effektive Funkkommunikation, Situation Assessment, Situation Reports erstellen, Konvoi fahren (und auf Unvorhergesehenes reagieren) bis zu Full Body Assessment bei Patient*innen, Versorgung großer Wunden (stop the bleed) mit Tourniquets war alles dabei.
Macht richtig Spaß und props an die Cadus Menschen die das alles ausgearbeitet haben.

Correlation Enhanced Autonomous Quantum Battery Charging via Structured Reservoirs
We study the charging dynamics of a quantum battery coupled to a structured reservoir composed of two qubits, each in thermal equilibrium with its own bosonic bath. The structured reservoir interacts with a charger battery model through three distinct configurations: (I) direct coupling between the reservoir qubits and the battery, (II) common coupling between the reservoir qubits, the charger, and the battery, and (III) common coupling between the reservoir qubits and the charger, together wit…

Generation of Quantum Entanglement in Autonomous Thermal Machines: Effects of Non-Markovianity, Hilbert Space Structure, and Quantum Coherence
We present a theoretical investigation of entanglement generation in an external quantum system interacting with a quantum autonomous thermal machine (QATM) under a non-Markovian dynamics. Indeed, the QATM is composed of two non-coupled qubits. Each qubit is coupled to an independent thermal reservoir, where each reservoir interacts with an external system of two additional non-coupled qubits. By analyzing the Hilbert space structure, energy level configurations, and temperature gradients, we d…

Languages Still Left Behind: Toward a Better Multilingual Machine Translation Benchmark
Multilingual machine translation (MT) benchmarks play a central role in evaluating the capabilities of modern MT systems. Among them, the FLORES+ benchmark is widely used, offering English-to-many translation data for over 200 languages, curated with strict quality control protocols. However, we study data in four languages (Asante Twi, Japanese, Jinghpaw, and South Azerbaijani) and uncover critical shortcomings in the benchmark's suitability for truly multilingual evaluation. Human assessments…

Quantum-Circuit-Based Visual Fractal Image Generation in Qiskit and Analytics
As nature is ascribed as quantum, the fractals also pose some intriguing appearance which is found in many micro and macro observable entities or phenomena. Fractals show self-similarity across sizes; structures that resemble the entire are revealed when zoomed in. In Quantum systems, the probability density or wavefunction may exhibit recurring interference patterns at various energy or length scales. Fractals are produced by basic iterative rules (such as Mandelbrot or Julia sets), and they p…
