On Domination Exponents for Pairs of Graphs
Understanding graph density profiles is notoriously challenging. Even for pairs of graphs, complete characterizations are known only in very limited cases, such as edges versus cliques. This paper explores a relaxation of the graph density profile problem by examining the homomorphism density domination exponent $C(H_1, H_2)$. This is the smallest real number $c \geq 0$ such that $t(H_1, T) \geq t(H_2, T)^c$ for all target graphs $T$ (if such a $c$ exists) where $t(H,T)$ is the homomorphism den…

This is going to be a different type of campaign.
Because when you’re going after Medicaid and even ripping food away from hungry kids,
all to cut taxes for donors and corporate lobbyists,
we’re not pulling punches.
I hope you’ll join us:

Randomly reminded of the pet mice my family had when I was a kid.
We'd always get them in pairs and they had the weirdest names.
I've probably forgot a few but...
Breyah and Ghibou (named by me as a toddler, they asked me to name them and used the next two bits of babbling i made)
Rosie and Sarah (nothing super weird there)
Davina (feminized form of David) and Bextra (banned COX-2 inhibitor, a close cousin of Vioxx)

I’ve treated kids with gunshot wounds, vaccine-preventable infections and chronic diseases..
I’m Democrat Dr. Annie Andrews and today I’m launching my campaign for U.S. Senate. 
I’ve been a doctor for almost 20 years. I’m no stranger to tough fights. 
But honestly, I never thought about running for office. But with MAGA chaos in the White House, I’m fed up and I’m taking a stand to stop the BS.
I’m taking on Senator Lindsey Graham, the posterboy for Washington corrupt…

Designing Corrosion-Resistant CoCrNi Medium Entropy Alloys via Short-Range Order Modification
Equiatomic CoCrNi medium entropy alloys are known for their unique properties linked to chemical short-range order (CSRO), crucial in both percolation processes and/or nucleation and growth processes influencing alloy passivation in aqueous environments. This study combines extended x-ray absorption fine structure, atomistic simulations, electrochemical methods, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy to explore CSRO evolution, passive film formation, as well as i…

Time-scales of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and dust continuum emission from gas clouds compared to molecular gas cloud lifetimes in PHANGS-JWST galaxies
Recent JWST mid-infrared (mid-IR) images, tracing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dust continuum emission, provide detailed views of the interstellar medium (ISM) in nearby galaxies. Leveraging PHANGS-JWST Cycle 1 and PHANGS-MUSE data, we measure the PAH and dust continuum emission lifetimes of gas clouds across 17 nearby star-forming galaxies by analyzing the relative spatial distributions of mid-IR (7.7-11.3$μ$m) and H$α$ emission at various scales. We find that the mid-IR emitt…

Neural-Augmented Kelvinlet: Real-Time Soft Tissue Deformation with Multiple Graspers
Fast and accurate simulation of soft tissue deformation is a critical factor for surgical robotics and medical training. In this paper, we introduce a novel physics-informed neural simulator that approximates soft tissue deformations in a realistic and real-time manner. Our framework integrates Kelvinlet-based priors into neural simulators, making it the first approach to leverage Kelvinlets for residual learning and regularization in data-driven soft tissue modeling. By incorporating large-sca…

Datasheets Aren't Enough: DataRubrics for Automated Quality Metrics and Accountability
High-quality datasets are fundamental to training and evaluating machine learning models, yet their creation-especially with accurate human annotations-remains a significant challenge. Many dataset paper submissions lack originality, diversity, or rigorous quality control, and these shortcomings are often overlooked during peer review. Submissions also frequently omit essential details about dataset construction and properties. While existing tools such as datasheets aim to promote transparency…

Partially-shared Imaging Regression on Integrating Heterogeneous Brain-Cognition Associations across Alzheimer's Diagnoses
This paper is motivated by the heterogeneous associations among demographic covariates, imaging data, and cognitive performances across different diagnostic groups within the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) study. We propose a novel PArtially-shared Imaging Regression (PAIR) model with smooth spatial component integration to capture heterogeneous imaging coefficients across multiple data sources. The model assumes that each imaging coefficient can be represented as a weighted…

Quantifying and Reducing Speaker Heterogeneity within the Common Voice Corpus for Phonetic Analysis
With its crosslinguistic and cross-speaker diversity, the Mozilla Common Voice Corpus (CV) has been a valuable resource for multilingual speech technology and holds tremendous potential for research in crosslinguistic phonetics and speech sciences. Properly accounting for speaker variation is, however, key to the theoretical and statistical bases of speech research. While CV provides a client ID as an approximation to a speaker ID, multiple speakers can contribute under the same ID. This study …
