The retina, the thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye, is made up of photoreceptor cells that convert visible light into electrical signals, which is essential for human vision.

Researchers at Yonsei University, the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) and other institutes in the Republic of Korea have recently developed a new artificial retina that could partly restore v…

Scaling-optimal purification of noisy qubit unitary channels

arXiv:2606.12394v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We consider the problem of purifying noisy qubit unitary channels. Given the ability to apply an unknown qubit unitary channel followed by depolarizing noise, we aim to construct a superchannel that purifies the noisy unitary back to the original unknown unitary. We first provide numerical evidence that sequential strategies can strictly outperform parallel strategies when the number of channel uses is finite, highlighting the fundamental distinction from state purification. We then provide a concrete $\mathrm{U}(2)$-covariant parallel protocol based on a novel entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting code that suppresses the first-order noise strength as $O(1/n)$ with $n$ channel uses and show this scaling is asymptotically optimal in the low-noise regime, even when sequential strategies are allowed.

Triple Configuration of Brain Networks Based on Recurrent Neural Networks: The Synergistic Effects of Exogenous Stimuli, Task Demands, and Spontaneous Activity
Binghao Yang, Guangzong Chen
https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.23525 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2604.23525 https://arxiv.org/html/2604.23525
arXiv:2604.23525v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: The foundation of cognitive flexibility and higher-order intelligence lies in the functional structure and activity of brain networks, which can be dynamically configured by both external environments and internal states. However, decoding these dynamics from high-dimensional neural data remains a challenge. In this study, we propose a computational framework using Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) with neural dynamic constraints to model source-localized resting-state EEG data from $114$ participants. We aim to clarify the "triple brain network configurations" driven by exogenous and endogenous factors, including external stimuli, information processing tasks, and spontaneous activities. Our model identifies the parietal network as a critical hub supporting these multiple configuration patterns. Furthermore, we reveal that the anterior and posterior parietal regions exhibit distinct functional specializations under different stimulus modalities. By formalizing a triple configuration framework, this work separates latent factors of brain dynamics and underscores the computational significance of parietal regions in orchestrating higher-order intelligence.
