WaterFlow: Explicit Physics-Prior Rectified Flow for Underwater Saliency Mask Generation
Underwater Salient Object Detection (USOD) faces significant challenges, including underwater image quality degradation and domain gaps. Existing methods tend to ignore the physical principles of underwater imaging or simply treat degradation phenomena in underwater images as interference factors that must be eliminated, failing to fully exploit the valuable information they contain. We propose WaterFlow, a rectified flow-based framework for underwater salient object detection that innovatively…

Selenskyj: Ukraine rückt in Region Sumy vor
Die ukrainischen Streitkräfte rücken laut Präsident Wolodymyr Selenskyj in den Grenzgebieten der nördlichen Region Sumy vor. In dem Gebiet versuchen russische Truppen seit Monaten, Fuß zu fassen. Zudem erlitten die russischen Streitkräfte laut Oberbefehlshaber Olexander Syrskyj in den Regionen Donezk und Charkiw erhebliche Verluste.

Image of a quantum-corrected black hole without Cauchy horizons illuminated by a static thin accretion disk
Latest advances in effective quantum gravity propose a quantum-corrected black hole solution that avoids Cauchy horizons. In this paper, we study the image of the black hole and explore the influence of the quantum parameter $ζ$ on its image. First, we investigate the influence of $ζ$ on the event horizon, photon sphere, critical impact parameter, and innermost stable circular orbit associated with the black hole. We find that all these quantities exhibit an increase with increasing $ζ$. Mea…

Feels like all I've done is knit baubles for the last fortnight but this is all I have to show for it. To be fair one's with Mum and one's on the 🎄 as I wasn't happy with it. I've ordered the wrong size bauble and played yarn chicken with the white so it hasn't been plain sailing. @… has ordered two more for a relative so that's m…

Series A, Episode 09 - Project Avalon
TRAVIS: Ohh?
SERVALAN: Oh, so far I have resisted that pressure. But now, I need your reassurance that my confidence has not been misplaced.
TRAVIS: I think Project Avalon will silence the critics.

Foraging with the Eyes: Dynamics in Human Visual Gaze and Deep Predictive Modeling
Animals often forage via Levy walks stochastic trajectories with heavy tailed step lengths optimized for sparse resource environments. We show that human visual gaze follows similar dynamics when scanning images. While traditional models emphasize image based saliency, the underlying spatiotemporal statistics of eye movements remain underexplored. Understanding these dynamics has broad applications in attention modeling and vision-based interfaces. In this study, we conducted a large scale huma…
