Tootfinder

The vardo weathered last night's storm well with the dehumidifier and fan running in it, with no signs of surface condensation whatsoever. Unfortunately, since I took the dehumidifier from my vintage computer and machine shop space, that's now sitting at 84%. I need a second dehumidifier ASAP. A smaller one would certainly suffice for the vardo.

One thing that, to my surprise, sells really quickly is old computer books from the 1980s (stuff like "Machine Programs for the Apple II").
I guess perhaps they're cheap to ship (in the US, the post office has a special low rate for packages with books or music) and nice small treats for people?
Regardless, it's a nice win, I free up space and get some pocket money, the books go to someone who will love and care for them. :)

How a programmer got Doom to run on a space satellite and what happened next
The first-person shooter is famous for being ported to almost every computer on the planet. Now, we know it can run off the Earth as well.

Secure and Efficient Access Control for Computer-Use Agents via Context Space
Large language model (LLM)-based computer-use agents represent a convergence of AI and OS capabilities, enabling natural language to control system- and application-level functions. However, due to LLMs' inherent uncertainty issues, granting agents control over computers poses significant security risks. When agent actions deviate from user intentions, they can cause irreversible consequences. Existing mitigation approaches, such as user confirmation and LLM-based dynamic action validation, sti…

Quasi-alternating surgeries on asymmetric L-space knots in the census
In the SnapPy census, there are 9 asymmetric L-space knots. It is known that each of them admits exactly two quasi-alternating surgeries with the aid of a computer. The purpose of this article is to confirm these surgeries by the Montesinos trick.

DA-Mamba: Dialogue-aware selective state-space model for multimodal engagement estimation
Human engagement estimation in conversational scenarios is essential for applications such as adaptive tutoring, remote healthcare assessment, and socially aware human--computer interaction. Engagement is a dynamic, multimodal signal conveyed by facial expressions, speech, gestures, and behavioral cues over time. In this work we introduce DA-Mamba, a dialogue-aware multimodal architecture that replaces attention-heavy dialogue encoders with Mamba-based selective state-space processing to achiev…

Online Adaptation via Dual-Stage Alignment and Self-Supervision for Fast-Calibration Brain-Computer Interfaces
Individual differences in brain activity hinder the online application of electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain computer interface (BCI) systems. To overcome this limitation, this study proposes an online adaptation algorithm for unseen subjects via dual-stage alignment and self-supervision. The alignment process begins by applying Euclidean alignment in the EEG data space and then updates batch normalization statistics in the representation space. Moreover, a self-supervised loss is designed …

Learning-Based Hashing for ANN Search: Foundations and Early Advances
Approximate Nearest Neighbour (ANN) search is a fundamental problem in information retrieval, underpinning large-scale applications in computer vision, natural language processing, and cross-modal search. Hashing-based methods provide an efficient solution by mapping high-dimensional data into compact binary codes that enable fast similarity computations in Hamming space. Over the past two decades, a substantial body of work has explored learning to hash, where projection and quantisation funct…

#EroticMusings 18: Do you have a dedicated space and/or time for your work? How do you avoid distractions?

Distraction is actually something good. I tend to hyperfocus and forget that I have bodily needs, …

High Clockrate Free-space Optical In-Memory Computing
The ability to process and act on data in real time is increasingly critical for applications ranging from autonomous vehicles, three-dimensional environmental sensing and remote robotics. However, the deployment of deep neural networks (DNNs) in edge devices is hindered by the lack of energy-efficient scalable computing hardware. Here, we introduce a fanout spatial time-of-flight optical neural network (FAST-ONN) that calculates billions of convolutions per second with ultralow latency and pow…

Voyager: An End-to-End Framework for Design-Space Exploration and Generation of DNN Accelerators
While deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance in fields from computer vision to natural language processing, efficiently running these computationally demanding models requires hardware accelerators. However, designing these accelerators is a time-consuming, labor-intensive process that does not scale well. While prior efforts have sought to automate DNN accelerator generation, they offer limited parameterization, cannot produce high-performance, tapeout-ready des…

ArtUV: Artist-style UV Unwrapping
UV unwrapping is an essential task in computer graphics, enabling various visual editing operations in rendering pipelines. However, existing UV unwrapping methods struggle with time-consuming, fragmentation, lack of semanticity, and irregular UV islands, limiting their practical use. An artist-style UV map must not only satisfy fundamental criteria, such as overlap-free mapping and minimal distortion, but also uphold higher-level standards, including clean boundaries, efficient space utilizati…

Digit classification using photonic reservoir computing based on a silicon microring resonator
We demonstrate first experimental investigation on the performance of a single-node reservoir computer based on a silicon microring resonator (MRR) operating on the digit recognition task. The input layer of the reservoir is composed of a single laser, a Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulator, which encodes intensity of the light applied to the MRR input. The input signal is transformed into a virtual high-dimensional space through thermal nonlinearity in the MRR. The MRR response is recorded wit…
