Gamma-ray lines, electron-positron annihilation, and possible radio emission in X-ray pulsars
Accretion onto neutron stars (NSs) in X-ray pulsars (XRPs) results in intense X-ray emission, and under specific conditions, high-energy nuclear interactions that produce gamma-ray photons at discrete energies. These interactions are enabled by the high free-fall velocities of accreting nuclei near the NS surface and give rise to characteristic gamma-ray lines, notably at 2.2 MeV, 5.5 MeV, and 67.5 MeV. We investigate the production mechanisms of these lines and estimate the resulting gamma-ray…

Prototyping Multimodal GenAI Real-Time Agents with Counterfactual Replays and Hybrid Wizard-of-Oz
Recent advancements in multimodal generative AI (GenAI) enable the creation of personal context-aware real-time agents that, for example, can augment user workflows by following their on-screen activities and providing contextual assistance. However, prototyping such experiences is challenging, especially when supporting people with domain-specific tasks using real-time inputs such as speech and screen recordings. While prototyping an LLM-based proactive support agent system, we found that exis…

So, we came early to the #baseball game for the Chipper Jones Bobblehead. We were successful, but we'll see how the game looks come the 6:05pm start time. The game is Stripers vs Durham Bulls.

Na 83 jaar Nederlandse excuses voor verdrinkingsdood honderden Duitsers bij Sumatra
Bij de ramp kwamen ruim vierhonderd Duitse gevangenen om het leven, nadat de Nederlandse scheepsbemanning geen poging had gedaan hen te redden.

GM3: A General Physical Model for Micro-Mobility Vehicles
Modeling the dynamics of micro-mobility vehicles (MMV) is becoming increasingly important for training autonomous vehicle systems and building urban traffic simulations. However, mainstream tools rely on variants of the Kinematic Bicycle Model (KBM) or mode-specific physics that miss tire slip, load transfer, and rider/vehicle lean. To our knowledge, no unified, physics-based model captures these dynamics across the full range of common MMVs and wheel layouts. We propose the "Generalized Micro-…

Graph Unlearning: Efficient Node Removal in Graph Neural Networks
With increasing concerns about privacy attacks and potential sensitive information leakage, researchers have actively explored methods to efficiently remove sensitive training data and reduce privacy risks in graph neural network (GNN) models. Node unlearning has emerged as a promising technique for protecting the privacy of sensitive nodes by efficiently removing specific training node information from GNN models. However, existing node unlearning methods either impose restrictions on the GNN …

Accelerating Sparse Ternary GEMM for Quantized LLM inference on Apple Silicon
Sparse Ternary General Matrix-Matrix Multiplication (GEMM) remains under-optimized in existing libraries for Apple Silicon CPUs. We present a Sparse Ternary GEMM kernel optimized specifically for Apple's M-series processors. We propose a set of architecture-aware optimizations, including a novel blocked and interleaved sparse data format to improve memory locality, strategies to increase Instruction-Level Parallelism (ILP), and NEON-based Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) vectorization to…

Collaboration and Conflict between Humans and Language Models through the Lens of Game Theory
Language models are increasingly deployed in interactive online environments, from personal chat assistants to domain-specific agents, raising questions about their cooperative and competitive behavior in multi-party settings. While prior work has examined language model decision-making in isolated or short-term game-theoretic contexts, these studies often neglect long-horizon interactions, human-model collaboration, and the evolution of behavioral patterns over time. In this paper, we investig…
