Medical sources in the Gaza Strip: Ten children were killed in an IDF attack while waiting to receive nutritional supplements in Deir al-Balah.
According to sources at a hospital in the area, 16 people were killed in total in the attack, and some of the bodies arrived in a battered state and difficult to identify.

Hidden-Heavy Pentaquarks and Where to Find Them
We provide a simple explanation for the observed hidden-charm pentaquarks as bound states in Born-Oppenheimer potentials. We identify $P_{c\bar{c}}(4312)^+$, $P_{c\bar{c}}(4380)^+$, $P_{c\bar{c}}(4440)^+$, and $P_{c\bar{c}}(4457)^+$ as the heavy-quark spin states in a quartet of $c \bar{c}$ pentaquarks with $J^P$ quantum numbers $\frac{1}{2}^-$, $\frac{3}{2}^-$, $\frac{3}{2}^-$, and $\frac{5}{2}^-$. The quantum numbers of $P_{c\bar{c}}(4457)^+$ differ from all previous predictions. We identify …

Are you In or Out (of gallery)? Wisdom from the Same-Identity Crowd
A central problem in one-to-many facial identification is that the person in the probe image may or may not have enrolled image(s) in the gallery; that is, may be In-gallery or Out-of-gallery. Past approaches to detect when a rank-one result is Out-of-gallery have mostly focused on finding a suitable threshold on the similarity score. We take a new approach, using the additional enrolled images of the identity with the rank-one result to predict if the rank-one result is In-gallery / Out-of-gal…

Aligning LLMs for the Classroom with Knowledge-Based Retrieval -- A Comparative RAG Study
Large language models like ChatGPT are increasingly used in classrooms, but they often provide outdated or fabricated information that can mislead students. Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) improves reliability of LLMs by grounding responses in external resources. We investigate two accessible RAG paradigms, vector-based retrieval and graph-based retrieval to identify best practices for classroom question answering (QA). Existing comparative studies fail to account for pedagogical factors s…

The More You Automate, the Less You See: Hidden Pitfalls of AI Scientist Systems
AI scientist systems, capable of autonomously executing the full research workflow from hypothesis generation and experimentation to paper writing, hold significant potential for accelerating scientific discovery. However, the internal workflow of these systems have not been closely examined. This lack of scrutiny poses a risk of introducing flaws that could undermine the integrity, reliability, and trustworthiness of their research outputs. In this paper, we identify four potential failure mod…

Unmarked ICE vehicles were spotted in Santa Barbara County between 6 and 8 a.m. Tuesday, according to community alerts issued by the
"805 Immigrant Coalition"
and "805 UndocuFund".
Advocates said that Santa Barbara County was a point of target on Tuesday,
with videos showing the same vehicles spotted making arrests the previous days patrolling both the Eastside and Westside neighborhoods of Santa Barbara and Carpinteria.
One video taken from a…
