Effect of chromatic dispersion on image size and lattice plane curvature measurements with Rocking Curve Imaging
ADP crystals of large dimensions (80x80x20 mm3), to be used as a X-ray beam expanders in the BEaTriX facility at INAF-OABrera, have been characterised at BM05 beamline at ESRF synchrotron with the main purpose to determine lattice plane curvature with a unprecedent accuracy, as the BEaTriX setup requires a radius of curvature larger than 22 km. In this beamline, the monochromator is made by 2 Si(111) parallel crystals in the non-dispersive configuration. Due to the difference in the Bragg angle…

SSIMBaD: Sigma Scaling with SSIM-Guided Balanced Diffusion for AnimeFace Colorization
We propose a novel diffusion-based framework for automatic colorization of Anime-style facial sketches. Our method preserves the structural fidelity of the input sketch while effectively transferring stylistic attributes from a reference image. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on predefined noise schedules - which often compromise perceptual consistency -- our framework builds on continuous-time diffusion models and introduces SSIMBaD (Sigma Scaling with SSIM-Guided Balanced Diffusion). …

Our meetup was well-attended with two interesting talks:
📋 Sarah Julia Kriesch presented "Docker vs Podman" - a beginner-friendly introduction to container basics and key differences between these tools.
🔧 Philip Laine showcased "Spegel", an OCI Registry Mirror that leverages torrent technology for efficient container image distribution - saving traffic costs and safeguarding against registry outages.

A Polarimetry-based Field-deployable Non-interruptive Mirror Soiling Detection Method
The soiling level of heliostat mirrors in Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) fields is one of the key factors that significantly influences optical efficiency. State-of-the-art methods of monitoring heliostats soiling levels still face various challenges, including slow speed, labor-intensive operations, resolution and accuracy constraints or interruptions to solar field operations. We present a rapid, cost-effective, and non-intrusive method for mirror soiling detection based on polarimetric imagi…

How important is the dielectric constant in water modeling? Evaluation of the performance of the TIP4P/$\varepsilon$ force field and its compatibility with the Joung-Cheetham NaCl model
Efficient large scale computer simulations of complex aqueous solutions require the use of accurate but simple empirical force fields for water. However, the growing complexity of these systems is evidencing the difficulties to describe solution properties without due account of polarization. Conflicting strategies to remedy this problem are parametrizing water force fields to the dielectric constant or charge scaling of the solvated ions. In this work we compare results from TIP4P/$\varepsil…

PathGene: Benchmarking Driver Gene Mutations and Exon Prediction Using Multicenter Lung Cancer Histopathology Image Dataset
Accurately predicting gene mutations, mutation subtypes and their exons in lung cancer is critical for personalized treatment planning and prognostic assessment. Faced with regional disparities in medical resources and the high cost of genomic assays, using artificial intelligence to infer these mutations and exon variants from routine histopathology images could greatly facilitate precision therapy. Although some prior studies have shown that deep learning can accelerate the prediction of key …

A highly sensitive SF$_6$-based leak test system for JUNO 3-inch PMT underwater electronics boxes
A total of 25600 3-inch photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), along with their corresponding frontend electronics, have been installed at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). These electronics are housed in 200 stainless steel boxes that operate underwater. To verify the sealing integrity of the underwater boxes following integration, we developed an SF$_6$-based leak test system, opting against the typical helium-based system due to helium's ability to penetrate the PMT glass. After a…
