Abstract: A method for measuring the altitude and particle size of noctilucent clouds, based on positioning and photometry from wide-angle three-color cameras, has been developed to determine the three velocity components, particle radius, and its derivative with respect to time for different cloud fragments. The updated method is applied to observational data of bright clouds during the summers of 2023-2025. Meridional motion of the cloud is found to be the principal factor driving the change in particle size. The effect of particle size evolution in the presence of a strong latitudinal temperature gradient is also studied.

A complete synaptic map of the brain connectome of the larva of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Nodes are neurons, and edges are synaptic connections, traced individually from brain image sections using three-dimensional electron microscopy–based reconstruction. Node metadata include the neuron hempisphere, hemispherical homologue, cell type, annotations, and inferred cluster. Edge metadata include the type of interaction (`'aa'`,…

Abstract: Acoustic echo and background noise pose challenges on speech enhancement in hands-free systems and speakerphones. Discriminatively trained end-to-end methods represent a powerful solution for joint acoustic echo control (AEC) and denoising. However, with the advent of generative methods, diffusion-based approaches have seen remarkable performance in speech enhancement tasks. In this work, to the best of our knowledge, we provide the first (still non-causal) diffusion-based AEC model (DiffVQE) that is reproducible in terms of topology, training data, and training framework. So far, without employing diffusion, Microsoft's discriminative DeepVQE model has been shown to excel any of the ICASSP 2023 AEC Challenge entries achieving remarkable performance. Using data from the Interspeech 2025 URGENT Challenge for a diverse, high-quality training dataset, our DiffVQE excels DeepVQE both in echo and noise control performance, as well as in computational complexity and model size.

@tomkalei@machteburch.socialDann habe ich aber ja noch mein gutes Macbook M2 Max 64GB von 2023, was gemma4-28B in der quantisierten Variante ausführen kann. Das ist jetzt ein wenig ein Apfel-Birne-Vergleich, weil die Genauigkeit da wohl noch schlechter wäre, aber Speed ist OK und Strom verbraucht es kaum -> Nochmal Faktor 6-10 billiger!

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caFinally! Some not-conflicted adults looking at the privacy concerns of LLM bots just slurping up your data without regulation or permission.
“OpenAI did not respect Canadian privacy laws when it trained its immensely popular ChatGPT tool, resulting in the collection and use of sensitive personal information, according to a joint investigation.
The federal privacy commissioner and his counterparts in Quebec, British Columbia and Alberta outlined their findings Wednesday morning into ChatGPT— a chatbot that generates conversational, human-like responses when users type in questions or tasks.
The privacy watchdogs' launched their probe in 2023 following a complaint that the company unlawfully collected, used and disclosed personal information without consent. "
