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…

MoiréTac: A Dual-Mode Visuotactile Sensor for Multidimensional Perception Using Moiré Pattern Amplification
Visuotactile sensors typically employ sparse marker arrays that limit spatial resolution and lack clear analytical force-to-image relationships. To solve this problem, we present \textbf{MoiréTac}, a dual-mode sensor that generates dense interference patterns via overlapping micro-gratings within a transparent architecture. When two gratings overlap with misalignment, they create moiré patterns that amplify microscopic deformations. The design preserves optical clarity for vision tasks while …

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.

The Dark Energy Bedrock All-Sky Supernova Program: Motivation, Design, Implementation, and Preliminary Data Release
Precise measurements of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at low redshifts ($z$) serve as one of the most viable keys to unlocking our understanding of cosmic expansion, isotropy, and growth of structure. The Dark Energy Bedrock All-Sky Supernovae (DEBASS) program will deliver the largest uniformly calibrated low-$z$ SN Ia data set in the southern hemisphere to date. DEBASS utilizes the Dark Energy Camera to image supernovae in conjunction with the Wide-Field Spectrograph (WiFeS) to gather comprehens…

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…

Russland wirft Ukraine Drohnenangriff auf Atomkraftwerk vor
Russland hat der Ukraine vorgeworfen, bei Drohnenangriffen am Freitag auch ein Atomkraftwerk ins Visier genommen zu haben. Die russische Atomenergiebehörde Rosatom erklärte, einer der Angriffe habe das Atomkraftwerk Smolensk rund 300 Kilometer westlich der Hauptstadt Moskau zum Ziel gehabt. Die russische Luftabwehr habe in der Nacht zum Freitag "eine ukrainische Kamp…

Scaling Learned Image Compression Models up to 1 Billion
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) highlight a strong connection between intelligence and compression. Learned image compression, a fundamental task in modern data compression, has made significant progress in recent years. However, current models remain limited in scale, restricting their representation capacity, and how scaling model size influences compression performance remains unexplored. In this work, we present a pioneering study on scaling up learned image compression mode…
