Sometimes I'm falsely credited with discovering the North Bernal Wiggle, the low-traffic bike route up to Bernal Heights Park that avoids steeper slopes. But it was actually Brian Coyne who told me about it.

Transformer Based Multi-Target Bernoulli Tracking for Maritime Radar
Multi-target tracking in the maritime domain is a challenging problem due to the non-Gaussian and fluctuating characteristics of sea clutter. This article investigates the use of machine learning (ML) to the detection and tracking of low SIR targets in the maritime domain. The proposed method uses a transformer to extract point measurements from range-azimuth maps, before clustering and tracking using the Labelled mulit- Bernoulli (LMB) filter. A measurement driven birth density design based on…

Can LLMs Replace Humans During Code Chunking?
Large language models (LLMs) have become essential tools in computer science, especially for tasks involving code understanding and generation. However, existing work does not address many of the unique challenges presented by code written for government applications. In particular, government enterprise software is often written in legacy languages like MUMPS or assembly language code (ALC) and the overall token lengths of these systems exceed the context window size for current commercially a…

Heute vor 66 Jahren: Am 26. Juli 1959 wurde im Sodium Reactor Experiment (SRE), dem ersten kommerziellen #Kernkraftwerk der #USA, ein beschädigtes Brennelement entdeckt. Nach erhöhten Strahlenwerten wurde der Reaktor im Santa Susana Field Laboratory heruntergefahren.

Symbiotic star candidates in Gaia Data Release 3
Symbiotic stars, binary pairs with a cool giant fueling accretion onto a hot compact companion, offer unique insights to our understanding of stellar evolution. Yet, only a few hundred symbiotic stars are confirmed. Here, we report on a new search for symbiotic star candidates in Gaia Data Release 3 (GDR3), based entirely on the archive's astrometric, photometric, and spectroscopic information. To begin our search, we identified known symbiotic stars in GDR3 and assessed their absolute magnitud…
