Massiver Cyberangriff auf US-Provider: Erster Einbruch schon ein Jahr früher
2024 ist mutmaßlich chinesischen Angreifern ein massiver Angriff auf US-Provider gelungen. Eine Malware wurde aber offenbar deutlich früher installiert.

Krutrim finds few takers for its LLMs and cloud products
Ola founder Aggarwal first announced Krutrim in December 2023, launching an LLM that could support 10 Indian languages, starting with Krutrim chatbot in February 2024, and cloud offering shortly after. Two founders told ET recently that repeated sign-in attempts were blocked by a persistent “logged out of session” error, making sign-up via mobile or Gmail difficult.

Hybrid Ensemble of Segmentation-Assisted Classification and GBDT for Skin Cancer Detection with Engineered Metadata and Synthetic Lesions from ISIC 2024 Non-Dermoscopic 3D-TBP Images
Skin cancer is among the most prevalent and life-threatening diseases worldwide, with early detection being critical to patient outcomes. This work presents a hybrid machine and deep learning-based approach for classifying malignant and benign skin lesions using the SLICE-3D dataset from ISIC 2024, which comprises 401,059 cropped lesion images extracted from 3D Total Body Photography (TBP), emulating non-dermoscopic, smartphone-like conditions.

Classification of Extremal Dependence in Financial Markets via Bootstrap Inference
Accurately identifying the extremal dependence structure in multivariate heavy-tailed data is a fundamental yet challenging task, particularly in financial applications. Following a recently proposed bootstrap-based testing procedure, we apply the methodology to absolute log returns of U.S. S&P 500 and Chinese A-share stocks over a time period well before the U.S. election in 2024. The procedure reveals more isolated clustering of dependent assets in the U.S. economy compared with China which e…

Asymptotic formula for the sum of a prime and a square-full number in intervals shorter than $X^{1/2}$
Let $R(N)$ be the number of representations of $N$ as a sum of a prime and a square-full number weighted with logarithmic function. In $2024$, the author and Y. Suzuki obtained an asymptotic formula for the sum of $R(N)$ over positive integers $N$ in a short interval ($X$, $X+H$] for $X^{\frac{1}{2}+\varepsilon} \le H < X^{1-\varepsilon}$. In this article, we improve the range of $H$, that is, we prove the same asymptotic formula for $X^{\frac{32-4\sqrt{15}}{49}+\varepsilon} \le H \le X^{1- \va…

Minder immigratie in 2024, vooral minder kennismigranten
In 2024 kwamen 316 duizend immigranten naar Nederland. Dat waren er 19 duizend minder dan het jaar ervoor. Zowel de immigratie uit EU-landen als uit overige landen was lager dan in 2023, het aantal immigranten met de Nederlandse nationaliteit bleef gelijk. Vooral het aantal kennismigranten dat van buiten de EU naar Nederland kwam daalde. Dat meldt het CBS op basis van recente cijfers.

Symmetry oscillations sensitivity to SU(2)-symmetry breaking in quantum mixtures
In one-dimensional bosonic quantum mixtures with SU(2)-symmetry breaking Hamiltonian, the dynamical evolution explores different particle exchange symmetry sectors. For the case of infinitely strong intra-species repulsion, the hallmark of such symmetry oscillations are time modulations of the momentum distribution [Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 183402 (2024)], an observable routinely accessed in experiments with ultracold atoms. In this work we show that this phenomenon is robust in strongly interacti…
