Johnson fled the country to avoid arrest, but continued boxing abroad.
Eventually he turned himself in and served time at Leavenworth Prison.
Fight- fan Donald Trump pardoned him in 2018, something Reagan, both Bushes and even…

SpeechVerifier: Robust Acoustic Fingerprint against Tampering Attacks via Watermarking
With the surge of social media, maliciously tampered public speeches, especially those from influential figures, have seriously affected social stability and public trust. Existing speech tampering detection methods remain insufficient: they either rely on external reference data or fail to be both sensitive to attacks and robust to benign operations, such as compression and resampling. To tackle these challenges, we introduce SpeechVerifer to proactively verify speech integrity using only the …

Dark photon dark matter constraints and a tentative signal at the TASEH experiment
The dark photon is a well motivated candidate for the dark matter which comprises most of the mass of our visible Universe, leading to worldwide experimental and observational efforts towards its discovery. A primary tool in this search is the cavity haloscope, which facilitates resonantly enhanced conversion to photons from both dark photons and axions. In this context, limits from axion search experiments are often directly converted into dark photon constraints, without re-analyzing the orig…

Multiscale transform based seismic reflectivity inversion using convolutional neural network
The Multiscale Fourier Transform of a seismic trace performs time-frequency analyses over a range of window lengths. The variation in window length captures local and global relative amplitudes between events, thereby allowing reflectivity inversion that is independent of the amplitude spectrum of the seismic wavelet. As the temporal and spatial variation of the actual seismic wavelet in seismic reflection data is poorly known, this approach has many advantages over conventional seismic reflect…

"The environmental burden of the United States’ bitcoin mining boom
Bitcoin mines—massive computing clusters generating cryptocurrency tokens—consume vast amounts of electricity. .... From mid-2022 to mid-2023, the 34 mines consumed 32.3 terawatt-hours of electricity—33% more than Los Angeles—85% of which came from fossil fuels. We estimated that 1.9 million Americans were exposed to ≥0.1 μg/m3 of additional PM2.5 pollution from Bitcoin mines"

The environmental burden of the United States’ bitcoin mining boom - Nature Communications
The paper maps air pollution from power plants supplying electricity to US Bitcoin mines. It finds that 1.9 million people in 2022-2023 breathed toxic amounts of Bitcoin mine attributable pollution, particularly around New York City and Houston.
