BridgeNet: A Hybrid, Physics-Informed Machine Learning Framework for Solving High-Dimensional Fokker-Planck Equations
BridgeNet is a novel hybrid framework that integrates convolutional neural networks with physics-informed neural networks to efficiently solve non-linear, high-dimensional Fokker-Planck equations (FPEs). Traditional PINNs, which typically rely on fully connected architectures, often struggle to capture complex spatial hierarchies and enforce intricate boundary conditions. In contrast, BridgeNet leverages adaptive CNN layers for effective local feature extraction and incorporates a dynamically w…

DeepPlantCRE: A Transformer-CNN Hybrid Framework for Plant Gene Expression Modeling and Cross-Species Generalization
The investigation of plant transcriptional regulation constitutes a fundamental basis for crop breeding, where cis-regulatory elements (CREs), as the key factor determining gene expression, have become the focus of crop genetic improvement research. Deep learning techniques, leveraging their exceptional capacity for high-dimensional feature extraction and nonlinear regulatory relationship modeling, have been extensively employed in this field. However, current methodologies present notable limi…

This is so hilarious. Antena 3 CNN got pissed off that Simion decided to skip on the debate and run away to #Poland, so they're letting Dan answer questions normally, and digging out the worst clips of Simion to answer their questions. It's making him look so incredibly bad.
Does he show up and get bulldozed by clear concise policy positions while blabbering about covid conspira…

Deep learning to improve the discovery of near-Earth asteroids in the Zwicky Transient Facility
We present a novel pipeline that uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) to improve the detection capability of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) in the context of planetary defense. Our work aims to minimize the dependency on human intervention of the current approach adopted by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). The target NEAs have a high proper motion of up to tens of degrees per day and thus appear as streaks of light in the images. We trained our CNNs to detect these streaks using three dat…
