Sprinten, Kämpfen, Siegen: Startschuss der World Humanoid Robot Games in China
In Peking beweisen humanoide Roboter ihr Können im Laufen, Kampfsport und anderen Disziplinen. Dabei liegen Staunen und Schmunzeln manchmal nah beieinander.

Quantum vs Classical Thermal Transport at Low Temperatures
This work aims to understand how quantum mechanics affects heat transport at low temperatures. In the classical setting, by considering a simple paradigmatic model, our simulations reveal the emergence of Negative Differential Thermal Resistance (NDTR): paradoxically, increasing the temperature bias by lowering the cold bath temperature reduces the steady-state heat current. In sharp contrast, the quantum version of the model, treated via a Lindblad master equation, exhibits no NDTR: the heat c…

Der Preisunterschied zwischen #Elektroautos und #Verbrennern ist auf rund 3.000 Euro gesunken.
Vor allem größere Modelle liegen preislich näher beieinander. Sinkende Kosten treiben den #Absatz

E-Autos und Verbrenner fast gleich teuer: Preisabstände sinken
Der Preisabstand zwischen Elektroautos und Verbrennern schrumpft. Damit wackelt auch das Argument, dass E-Autos zu teuer sind.

Oh Jaguar Land Rover is *another* UK company that outsourced their computer security to Tata Consultancy Services. (Like Marks and Spencer - but in the case of JLR they're also owned by Tata.)

Uhoh… Didn’t we get EU connectivity via Colt?
Oh. Never mind. Dodged a bullet *AGAIN* by having cancelled that contract (a few years back, actually…)
If I was a superstitious person I’d think that I'd been blessed to never be directly harmed by any sort of cyberattack. If I was a narcissist I'd think that I was somehow specially skilled at intuitively avoiding all attacks...
I’m neither, and recognize the absurdity of random chance, which ALWAYS does the unlikely…

PhenoGnet: A Graph-Based Contrastive Learning Framework for Disease Similarity Prediction
Understanding disease similarity is critical for advancing diagnostics, drug discovery, and personalized treatment strategies. We present PhenoGnet, a novel graph-based contrastive learning framework designed to predict disease similarity by integrating gene functional interaction networks with the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO). PhenoGnet comprises two key components: an intra-view model that separately encodes gene and phenotype graphs using Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) and Graph Atten…
