VERNIER: an open-source software pushing marker pose estimation down to the micrometer and nanometer scales
Pose estimation is still a challenge at the small scales. Few solutions exist to capture the 6 degrees of freedom of an object with nanometric and microradians resolutions over relatively large ranges. Over the years, we have proposed several fiducial marker and pattern designs to achieve reliable performance for various microscopy applications. Centimeter ranges are possible using pattern encoding methods, while nanometer resolutions can be achieved using phase processing of the periodic frame…

On Foundation Models for Temporal Point Processes to Accelerate Scientific Discovery
Many scientific fields, from medicine to seismology, rely on analyzing sequences of events over time to understand complex systems. Traditionally, machine learning models must be built and trained from scratch for each new dataset, which is a slow and costly process. We introduce a new approach: a single, powerful model that learns the underlying patterns of event data in context. We trained this "foundation model" on millions of simulated event sequences, teaching it a general-purpose understa…

📥 Powerful import system directly in prompts: @./src/api.ts for single files, @./src/**/*.ts for glob patterns, @./file.ts:10-50 for line ranges, @./types.ts#UserInterface for TypeScript symbol extraction, @https://url for remote content
