“The EU’s most senior diplomat, Kaja Kallas, said the bloc would keep ‘options on the table’ to pressure Israel’s government if there was no improvement in the ‘catastrophic’ humanitarian situation in Gaza. According to several diplomatic sources she did not endorse any one of 10 sanctions options drawn up by her team, after an earlier EU review found ‘indications’ Israel was in breach of human rights commitments.”

Court Rules EPA Failed to Properly Consider, Update Water Pollution Standards For Oil Refineries, Plastics Plants
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled today that the Environmental Protection Agency acted unlawfully in declining to update water pollution control standards for seven major industries. The industries include petroleum refineries, inorganic and organic chemical manufacturers, and factories that manufacture plastics, fertilizer, pesticides and nonferrous metals. The court agreed with conservation groups that the Clean Water Act requires the EPA to consider technological advancements in cont…

Alt National Park Servic "They’re cranking up the propaganda machine again: claiming Brad Lander “unlawfully interfered” and that ICE is just “enforcing Trump’s policy.” Reality: Lander stood up for civil rights. ICE’s conduct reflects a deeply troubling use of federal power." — Bluesky

Scaling-Up the Pretraining of the Earth Observation Foundation Model PhilEO to the MajorTOM Dataset
Today, Earth Observation (EO) satellites generate massive volumes of data, with the Copernicus Sentinel-2 constellation alone producing approximately 1.6TB per day. To fully exploit this information, it is essential to pretrain EO Foundation Models (FMs) on large unlabeled datasets, enabling efficient fine-tuning for several different downstream tasks with minimal labeled data. In this work, we present the scaling-up of our recently proposed EO Foundation Model, PhilEO Geo-Aware U-Net, on the u…

QUEST: Quality-aware Semi-supervised Table Extraction for Business Documents
Automating table extraction (TE) from business documents is critical for industrial workflows but remains challenging due to sparse annotations and error-prone multi-stage pipelines. While semi-supervised learning (SSL) can leverage unlabeled data, existing methods rely on confidence scores that poorly reflect extraction quality. We propose QUEST, a Quality-aware Semi-supervised Table extraction framework designed for business documents. QUEST introduces a novel quality assessment model that ev…

Effect of Galactic Chemical Evolution on Exoplanet Properties
We couple a simplified model for the galactic chemical evolution, with software that models the condensation of dust in protoplanetary disks and software that models the interior structure of planets in order to estimate the effects that the galactic chemical evolution has on the properties of planets as they form over time. We find that the early abundance of elements formed from the evolution and death of high-mass stars (such as Oxygen, Silicon, and Magnesium) yields planets with larger mant…
