Software in the natural world: A computational approach to emergence in complex multi-level systems
Understanding the functional architecture of complex systems is crucial to illuminate their inner workings and enable effective methods for their prediction and control. Recent advances have introduced tools to characterise emergent macroscopic levels; however, while these approaches are successful in identifying when emergence takes place, they are limited in the extent they can determine how it does. Here we address this limitation by developing a computational approach to emergence, which ch…

Across every aspect of being a self, we perceive ourselves as stable over time because we perceive ourselves in order to control ourselves, not in order to know ourselves.

Ising model with non-reciprocal interactions
Effective interactions that violate Newton's third law of action-reaction symmetry are common in systems where interactions are mediated by a non-equilibrium environment. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are carried out on a two-dimensional Ising model, where the interactions are modified non-reciprocally. We demonstrate that the critical temperature decreases as the non-reciprocity increases and this decrease depends only on the magnitude of non-reciprocity. Further, travelling spin waves due…

Open vocabulary keyword spotting through transfer learning from speech synthesis
Identifying keywords in an open-vocabulary context is crucial for personalizing interactions with smart devices. Previous approaches to open vocabulary keyword spotting dependon a shared embedding space created by audio and text encoders. However, these approaches suffer from heterogeneous modality representations (i.e., audio-text mismatch). To address this issue, our proposed framework leverages knowledge acquired from a pre-trained text-to-speech (TTS) system. This knowledge transfer allows …

If you’ve been accused of living in “a world of your own,” get ready for some validation.
As cognitive scientist Anil Seth argues in the TED Talk “Your Brain Hallucinates Your Conscious Reality,”
everyone lives in a world of their own
— at least if by “everyone” you mean “every brain,”
by “world” you mean “entire reality,”
and by “of their own” you mean “that it has created for itself.”
Seth says that with all the signals our brain receives from our sens…

Constraining the core radius and density jumps inside Earth using atmospheric neutrino oscillations
Atmospheric neutrinos can act as a tool to probe the interior of Earth using weak interactions, and can provide information complementary to that obtained from gravitational and seismic measurements. While passing through Earth, multi-GeV neutrinos encounter Earth matter effects due to the coherent forward scattering with the ambient electrons, which alter the neutrino oscillation probabilities. These matter effects depend upon the density distribution of electrons inside Earth, and hence, can …

I Did Not Notice: A Comparison of Immersive Analytics with Augmented and Virtual Reality
Immersive environments enable users to engage in embodied interaction, enhancing the sensemaking processes involved in completing tasks such as immersive analytics. Previous comparative studies on immersive analytics using augmented and virtual realities have revealed that users employ different strategies for data interpretation and text-based analytics depending on the environment. Our study seeks to investigate how augmented and virtual reality influences sensemaking processes in quantitativ…
