Ontology is shaping up to be the buzzword of 2026 because they are offering what #LLMs are lacking: formal grounding
LLMs offer creativity but need logical grounding. Ontologies provide this formal structure, anchoring meaning and unifying diverse data sources into a single semantic layer. They are essential for achieving precision and are one of the most reliable defense mechanisms against

South Carolina already ranks 8th nationally in highest maternal mortality rate,
and MAGA extremists are vying to become #1.
Now, for the third time since 2023, MAGA Republicans in South Carolina have introduced
S 323, also known as
The Unborn Child Protection Act.
South Carolina Senate Bill 323 is one of the most extreme pieces of legislation we’ve seen.
It proposes changing the legal definition of the word “person” to include an unborn fetus.

fly_larva: Drosophila larva brain (2023)
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'`,…

Numerical analysis of the large deviation regime of a kinetic equation with a nonlocal Hamilton-Jacobi limit
We develop and study an asymptotic-preserving (AP) numerical scheme for a linear kinetic equation in a large deviation regime. After applying a Hopf-Cole transform to the distribution function, the system exhibits the behavior of rare events, which in the limit is governed by a non-standard, nonlocal Hamilton-Jacobi equation, as identified in [E. Bouin et al., J. Lond. Math. Soc., II. Ser., 2023]. The proposed scheme efficiently handles the stiffness introduced by scaling, with a computationa…

Dense photometry validation of super-fast-rotating asteroid candidates
Super-fast rotators (SFRs; P < 2.2 hr) are of great importance in asteroid studies; yet, many reported detections suffer from aliasing caused by an insufficient observation cadence. We present dense CCD photometry for 15 SFRs candidates (14 after excluding 11219 Benbohn, whose published period already exceeds the spin barrier) observed from 2023 Aug 11 to 2024 Aug 11 with the 1.5 m Sierra Nevada and 1.4 m AS Vidojevica telescopes. Our dataset comprises approximately 2,400 calibrated data points…

Jamais la France ou être français n'a été un frein. Jamais être européen n'a été autre chose qu'une chance ! J'ai créé des boîtes et des filiales de boîtes dans 12 pays incluant des puissances majeures (USA,UK, Allemagne) et des puissances émergentes (Vietnam, Mexique, Roumanie, Maroc...). J'ai dirigé, jusqu'en 2023, une boîte française qui comptait près de 1500 sublimes collaborateurs dans le monde et nous l'avons vendue à une entreprise cotée au NYSE. J'ai investi dans …
