ResPlan: A Large-Scale Vector-Graph Dataset of 17,000 Residential Floor Plans
We introduce ResPlan, a large-scale dataset of 17,000 detailed, structurally rich, and realistic residential floor plans, created to advance spatial AI research. Each plan includes precise annotations of architectural elements (walls, doors, windows, balconies) and functional spaces (such as kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms). ResPlan addresses key limitations of existing datasets such as RPLAN (Wu et al., 2019) and MSD (van Engelenburg et al., 2024) by offering enhanced visual fidelity and gre…

Improving the FAIRness and Sustainability of the NHGRI Resources Ecosystem
In 2024, NHGRI-funded genomic resource projects completed a Self-Assessment Tool (SAT) and interviews to evaluate their application of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles and sustainability. Key challenges were identified in metadata tools, data curation, variant identifiers, and data processing. Addressing these needs, we engaged the community through webinars and discussions, leading to a two-day workshop in March 2025. The workshop developed targeted recommendatio…

Space Mission Options for Reconnaissance and Mitigation of Asteroid 2024 YR4
Near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 was discovered on 2024-12-27 and its probability of Earth impact in December 2032 peaked at about 3% on 2025-02-18. Additional observations ruled out Earth impact by 2025-02-23. However, the probability of lunar impact in December 2032 then rose, reaching about 4% by the end of the apparition in May 2025. James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations on 2025-03-26 estimated the asteroid's diameter at 60 +/- 7 m. Studies of 2024 YR4's potential lunar impact effects …

HLTCOE at TREC 2024 NeuCLIR Track
The HLTCOE team applied PLAID, an mT5 reranker, GPT-4 reranker, score fusion, and document translation to the TREC 2024 NeuCLIR track. For PLAID we included a variety of models and training techniques -- Translate Distill (TD), Generate Distill (GD) and multi-lingual translate-distill (MTD). TD uses scores from the mT5 model over English MS MARCO query-document pairs to learn how to score query-document pairs where the documents are translated to match the CLIR setting. GD follows TD but uses p…

The hat polykite as an Iterated Function System
This paper describes the celebrated aperiodic hat tiling by Smith et al. [Comb. Theory 8 (2024), 6] as generated by an overlapping iterated function system. We briefly introduce and study infinite sequences of iterated function systems that converge uniformly in each component, and use this theory to model the hat tiling's associated imperfect substitution system.

Phase transition properties via partition function zeros: The Blume-Capel ferromagnet revisited
Since the landmark work of Lee and Yang, locating the zeros of the partition function in the complex magnetic-field plane has become a powerful method for studying phase transitions. Fisher later extended this approach to complex temperatures, and subsequent generalizations introduced other control parameters, such as the crystal field. In previous works [Moueddene et al, J. Stat. Mech. (2024) 023206; Phys. Rev. E 110, 064144 (2024)] we applied this framework to the two- and three-dimensional B…

Permutations satisfying $(P_1)$ and $(P_2)$ properties and $\ell$-optimal bent functions
An important classification of permutations over $\mathbb{F}_2^m$, suitable for constructing Maiorana-McFarland bent functions on $\mathbb{F}_2^m \times \mathbb{F}_2^m$ with the unique $M$-subspace of maximal dimension, was recently considered in Pasalic et al. (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 70(6): 4464-4477, 2024). More precisely, two properties called $(P_1)$ and $(P_2)$ were introduced and a generic method of constructing permutations having the property $(P_1)$ was presented, whereas no such resu…

Improved $\ell_{p}$ Regression via Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares
We introduce fast algorithms for solving $\ell_{p}$ regression problems using the iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) method. Our approach achieves state-of-the-art iteration complexity, outperforming the IRLS algorithm by Adil-Peng-Sachdeva (NeurIPS 2019) and matching the theoretical bounds established by the complex algorithm of Adil-Kyng-Peng-Sachdeva (SODA 2019, J. ACM 2024) via a simpler lightweight iterative scheme. This bridges the existing gap between theoretical and practical a…

Itô-Wentzell formulas for semimartingale conditional laws with applications to mean-field control
The present paper is an extension of Fadle-Touzi (2024). Following the same methodology, merely based on Taylor expansions, we establish the Itô and Itô-Wentzell formulae for flows of conditional distributions of general semimartingales, thus allowing for discontinuous semimartingales with possibly discontinuous flows of conditional marginals. We apply these results to derive the dynamic programming equations corresponding to mean field control problems with Poisson type common noise and mean…

EconAgentic in DePIN Markets: A Large Language Model Approach to the Sharing Economy of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure
The Decentralized Physical Infrastructure (DePIN) market is revolutionizing the sharing economy through token-based economics and smart contracts that govern decentralized operations. By 2024, DePIN projects have exceeded \$10 billion in market capitalization, underscoring their rapid growth. However, the unregulated nature of these markets, coupled with the autonomous deployment of AI agents in smart contracts, introduces risks such as inefficiencies and potential misalignment with human value…

China überschreitet als erstes Land der Welt die Marke von 1.000 GW Solarleistung
Münster – China entwickelt sich immer schneller zum Motor für den globalen Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energien. Allein in den ersten sechs Monaten des Jahres 2025 wurden in China neue Solaranlagen mit einer Leistung von 210 GW (210.000 MW) neu errichtet. Das ist deutlich mehr als die gesamte installierte Solarleistung in den USA mit rund 178 GW (IRENA, 2024); Deutschland liegt Ende letzten Jahres bei 100 GW (MaStR, BNetzA).
