Understanding the Geometry of Faulted Power Systems under High Penetration of Inverter-Based Resources via Ellipse Fitting and Geometric Algebra
Power systems with high penetration of inverter-based resources (IBR) present significant challenges for conventional protection schemes, with traditional distance protection methods failing to detect line-to-line faults during asymmetric conditions. This paper presents a methodology for electrical fault detection and classification using ellipse fitting and geometric algebra applied to voltage and current space curves. The approach characterizes electrical faults by fitting ellipses to voltage…

Point3R: Streaming 3D Reconstruction with Explicit Spatial Pointer Memory
Dense 3D scene reconstruction from an ordered sequence or unordered image collections is a critical step when bringing research in computer vision into practical scenarios. Following the paradigm introduced by DUSt3R, which unifies an image pair densely into a shared coordinate system, subsequent methods maintain an implicit memory to achieve dense 3D reconstruction from more images. However, such implicit memory is limited in capacity and may suffer from information loss of earlier frames. We …

Related to my last boost, still annoyed this DID NOT make it into WCAG 2.2:
3.2.7 Hidden Controls (Level AA): Controls needed to progress or complete a process are visible at the time they are needed without requiring pointer hover or keyboard focus, or a mechanism is available to make them persistently visible.

Studies on the effect of low-fluence proton and neutron irradiation on n-type LGADs
The presented study investigates the effects of low fluences from $5\times10^{12}$ up to $1\times10^{14}$ particles/cm$^{2}$ of 60MeV proton and neutron irradiation on n-type Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (nLGADs). An nLGAD is a silicon sensor with a highly doped gain layer that enables controlled charge multiplication via impact ionization. In contrast to the well-established p-type LGADs for high-energy physics (HEP) applications, nLGADs are optimized for the detection of low-penetrating parti…

Optical absorption of a Cu$_2$SnS$_3$ (CTS) layer trapped by metallic thin films in multilayer configuration
Coating and reflecting thin films for energy harvesting purposes are interesting topics in both theoretical and experimental research. The thin film could help to enhance the absorption of the system via its specific optical properties depending on the optical wavelength and the stacked layer thickness. Here, by using Maxwell's equations for the electromagnetic fields penetrating thin films, we examined in detail the absorption of a CTS layer coated by nanometer-thick thin films of several mate…

Decoupled Entity Representation Learning for Pinterest Ads Ranking
In this paper, we introduce a novel framework following an upstream-downstream paradigm to construct user and item (Pin) embeddings from diverse data sources, which are essential for Pinterest to deliver personalized Pins and ads effectively. Our upstream models are trained on extensive data sources featuring varied signals, utilizing complex architectures to capture intricate relationships between users and Pins on Pinterest. To ensure scalability of the upstream models, entity embeddings are …

One of the things about long road trips is the need for housekeeping. Day six was spent in Ceduna, getting laundry done, restocking the pantry, sweeping out the van and filling gas bottles. Ceduna has a good bakery and a pub on the foreshore. #RoadTrip
