Interference-Aware Multiuser Hybrid Precoding for Coexistence with LEO Satellite Communication
Interference from terrestrial networks can reduce the communication rate for low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites in the upper mid-band. To coexist in frequency, MIMO precoding can be used to reduce the signal that impinges on the LEO satellite. We present a beamforming algorithm designed for the hybrid architecture that incorporates a satellite interference penalty while optimizing the analog and digital precoders. Our algorithm optimizes the precoding at the base station (BS) within the set of pr…

After decades in the U.S., Iranians arrested in Trump’s deportation drive
Mandonna “Donna” Kashanian lived in the United States for 47 years,
married a U.S. citizen and raised their daughter.
She was gardening in the yard of her New Orleans home when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers handcuffed and took her away, her family said.
Kashanian arrived in 1978 on a student visa and applied for asylum,
fearing retaliation for her father’s support of…

After decades in the U.S., Iranians arrested in Trump’s deportation drive
Some Iranians are getting arrested by immigration authorities after living decades in the United States. 'Who picks up a grandmother?' says the husband of a detained woman who has lived in the U.S. for 47 years.

"We cannot preclude developers from “vibe coding” their way into a working application; but we can teach them how to properly integrate the very likely spaghetti mess produced by those bullshit machines, how to understand it, and how to make it work with today’s compilers, which, let us be honest: are the best we have ever had, and it would be a shame to ignore them completely."

The Allure Of Vibe Coding
"Compiler Explorer" is the name of a fascinating project by Matt Godbolt, a British C++ software developer living in Chicago. It is the simplest and most wonderful thing; just paste a snippet of code on the left pane (in C, C++, D, C#, Java, Python, and a myriad more languages), and you will see on the right its equivalent in assembly code, as produced by one of a long list of compilers, including some commercial ones, for a wide variety of CPU architectures and software versions.

A Framework for Quantum Advantage
As quantum computing approaches the threshold where certain tasks demonstrably outpace their classical machines, the need for a precise, clear, consensus-driven definition of quantum advantage becomes essential. Rapid progress in the field has blurred this term across companies, architectures, and application domains. Here, we aim to articulate an operational definition for quantum advantage that is both platform-agnostic and empirically verifiable. Building on this framework, we highlight the …

Channel Estimation for 6G Near-Field Wireless Communications: A Comprehensive Survey
The sixth-generation (6G) wireless systems are expected to adopt extremely large aperture arrays (ELAAs), novel antenna architectures, and operate in extremely high-frequency bands to meet growing data demands. ELAAs significantly increase the number of antennas, enabling finer spatial resolution and improved beamforming. At high frequencies, ELAAs shift communication from the conventional far-field to near-field regime, where spherical wavefronts dominate and the channel response depends on bo…

Functional Architecture of the Human Hypothalamus: Cortical Coupling and Subregional Organization Using 7-Tesla fMRI
The hypothalamus plays an important role in the regulation of the bodys metabolic state and behaviors related to survival. Despite its importance however, many questions exist regarding the intrinsic and extrinsic connections of the hypothalamus in humans, especially its relationship with the cortex. As a heterogeneous structure, it is possible that the hypothalamus is composed of different subregions, which have their own distinct relationships with the cortex. Previous work on functional conn…

Mamba Goes HoME: Hierarchical Soft Mixture-of-Experts for 3D Medical Image Segmentation
In recent years, artificial intelligence has significantly advanced medical image segmentation. However, challenges remain, including efficient 3D medical image processing across diverse modalities and handling data variability. In this work, we introduce Hierarchical Soft Mixture-of-Experts (HoME), a two-level token-routing layer for efficient long-context modeling, specifically designed for 3D medical image segmentation. Built on the Mamba state-space model (SSM) backbone, HoME enhances seque…

Wireless Energy Transfer Beamforming Optimization for Intelligent Transmitting Surface
Radio frequency (RF) wireless energy transfer (WET) is a promising technology for powering the growing ecosystem of Internet of Things (IoT) devices using power beacons (PBs). Recent research focuses on designing efficient PB architectures that can support numerous antennas. In this context, PBs equipped with intelligent surfaces present a promising approach, enabling physically large, reconfigurable arrays. Motivated by these advantages, this work aims to minimize the power consumption of a PB…
