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'`,…

This is what a real President sounds like. Unlike the current occupant of the White House, President Barack Obama showed care and respect for all Americans—not just one political party. Happy 4th of July! : r/usa

Identifying Alzheimer's Disease Prediction Strategies of Convolutional Neural Network Classifiers using R2* Maps and Spectral Clustering
Deep learning models have shown strong performance in classifying Alzheimer's disease (AD) from R2* maps, but their decision-making remains opaque, raising concerns about interpretability. Previous studies suggest biases in model decisions, necessitating further analysis. This study uses Layer-wise Relevance Propagation (LRP) and spectral clustering to explore classifier decision strategies across preprocessing and training configurations using R2* maps. We trained a 3D convolutional neural net…

Denne her laurbærkirsebær ser lidt kedelig ud nu hvor den er afblomstret. Tænkte jeg, indtil jeg så de vilde bier der åbenbart stadig har glæde af de tŸrre blomsterstande - i disse tider er det jo en gave at have bier, så jeg sidder i smiler her på terrassen 😊

Efficient scheduling in redundancy systems with general service times
We characterize the impact of scheduling policies on the mean response time in nested systems with cancel-on-complete redundancy. We consider not only redundancy-oblivious policies, such as FCFS and ROS, but also redundancy-aware policies of the form $Π$ 1 -- $Π$ 2 , where $Π$ 1 discriminates among job classes (e.g., least-redundant-first (LRF), most-redundantfirst (MRF)) and $Π$ 2 discriminates among jobs of the same class. Assuming that jobs have independent and identically distributed (i…

Many-Body Simulations of the Fast Flavor Instability
The neutrino fast flavor instability dominates the evolution of neutrino flavor within the engines of core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers. However, theoretical models of neutrino flavor change that include many-body quantum correlations can differ starkly from similar mean-field calculations. We demonstrate for the first time that the inhomogeneous fast flavor instability is disrupted by many-body correlations using a novel tensor network framework that allows a continuous transit…

Confinement-induced proliferation of vortices around marine invertebrate larvae
The ocean is teeming with a myriad of mm-sized invertebrate planktonic larvae, which thrive in a viscous fluid environment. Many of them rely on ciliary beating to generate fluid flows for locomotion and feeding. Their larval forms, local morphologies, and ciliation patterns exhibit remarkable diversity, producing intricate and dynamic 3D flows that are notoriously difficult to characterize in laboratory settings. Traditional microscopic imaging techniques typically involve gently squeeze-confi…
