One Filters All: A Generalist Filter for State Estimation
Estimating hidden states in dynamical systems, also known as optimal filtering, is a long-standing problem in various fields of science and engineering. In this paper, we introduce a general filtering framework, \textbf{LLM-Filter}, which leverages large language models (LLMs) for state estimation by embedding noisy observations with text prototypes. In various experiments for classical dynamical systems, we find that first, state estimation can significantly benefit from the reasoning knowledg…

Environmental Regulation of Dust and Star Formation Unveiled by Subaru Dual Narrow-band Imaging: Degree-scale Balmer Decrement Mapping across a z = 0.9 Supercluster
We present results from a dual narrow-band imaging survey targeting the CL1604 supercluster at z = 0.9 using the Subaru Telescope. By combining the NB921 filter on HSC and the NB1244 filter on SWIMS, we can detect redshifted H$α$ and H$β$ emission lines from the supercluster. This unique technique allows us to measure both star formation rates and dust extinction for a sample of 94 emission-line galaxies across the supercluster. We find that dust extinction, estimated from the Balmer decremen…

The \fpn method extends the classical spherical harmonics approach (\pn) by introducing regularization through a filter operator, which mitigates spurious oscillations caused by Gibbs' phenomenon. This filter includes a tunable parameter, the {filter strength}, that controls the degree of smoothing applied to the solution. However, selecting an opt…

However, many applications need to associate small values with keys-functionality that filters do not provide. This mismatch forces complex workarounds that degrade performance. We argue that maplets-space-efficient data structures for approximate key-value mappings-are the right abstraction. A maplet provides the same space benefits as filters while …

Si-PIN detectors can be microstructured to achieve angular-selective particle detection capabilities, which we call active Transverse Energy Filter (aTEF).

The motivation for this kind of detector arises from the need to distinguish background electrons from signal electrons in a spectrometer of MAC-E fil…

Basis of a Banach space with respect to a filter F on N (F-basis for short) is a generalization of basis, where the ordinary convergence of series is substituted by convergence of partial sums with respect to the filter F. We study the behavior of the norms of partial sums operators for an F-basis, depending on the filter and on the space. One of the central results is: The following properties of a sequence $(a_n)_{n \in N} \subset (1, \infty)$ are equivalent: (i) $\sum_{n \in N} a_n^{-1} …

Gravitational lensing of gravitational waves: universal characteristics of strongly lensed memory waveforms
In this work, the strong lensing effect of the memory signal was considered. In the geometric optics limit, the lensed memory signal becomes oscillatory, while the unlensed is basically monotonic. This is because only the high frequency Fourier modes contribute to the lensed signal. Therefore, the strong lensing system serves as a high-pass filter for the memory signal. Due to the step function like behavior of the unlensed memory waveform, the lensed waveform possesses characteristic morpholog…

But Podman uses a VM to host the containers and that VM does already bind on Port 53 for its container DNS resolution. So ended up using a small VM with UTM virtualisation app that runs the Pihole container in an Alpine Li…

I just needed to complain about datadog. Trying to use one of its canned dashboards for Kafka that doesn't have sufficient filtering to break things down by cluster .... So I cloned it and added some filter at the top, but none of the widgets inherit the filters.
Struggling to see how this was ever useful for anybody

Artificial-Intelligence Grading Assistance for Handwritten Components of a Calculus Exam
We investigate whether contemporary multimodal LLMs can assist with grading open-ended calculus at scale without eroding validity. In a large first-year exam, students' handwritten work was graded by GPT-5 against the same rubric used by teaching assistants (TAs), with fractional credit permitted; TA rubric decisions served as ground truth. We calibrated a human-in-the-loop filter that combines a partial-credit threshold with an Item Response Theory (2PL) risk measure based on the deviation bet…

For those of you tolerating Liquid Glass and the quite horrific Safari redesign on mobile/tablet: Kagi’s Orion browser actually seems to be an awesome full replacement. No complaints so far. Easy access to tab management, no weirdly hidden buttons or menus you need to tap multiple times to see fully. As a bonus, it has built-in filter support as well as several great Firefox and Chrome plug-ins. And Kagi’s search is optional. In fact you have more search options than in Safari.

YouTube seems to be broken under ublock origin again: the entire video player is just not there.
I'm seeing this on two different systems, a VM and a bare metal box, running different Debian versions and Firefox versions but fully up to date UBO with roughly the same filter sets.
Anybody else seeing this? Any issue tracker threads I can follow with progress towards a solution?
UPDATE: seems like it was stuck in some kind of half-updated state. Closed and restarted the b…

Covert Waveform Design for Integrated Sensing and Communication System in Clutter Environment
This paper proposes an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system covert waveform design method for complex clutter environments, with the core objective of maximizing the signal-to-clutter-plus-noise ratio (SCNR). The design achieves efficient clutter suppression while meeting the covertness requirement through joint optimization of the transmit waveform and receive filter, enabling cooperative radar detection and wireless communication. This study presents key innovations that explici…

Agentic generative AI for media content discovery at the national football league
Generative AI has unlocked new possibilities in content discovery and management. Through collaboration with the National Football League (NFL), we demonstrate how a generative-AI based workflow enables media researchers and analysts to query relevant historical plays using natural language rather than traditional filter-and-click interfaces. The agentic workflow takes a user query as input, breaks it into elements, and translates them into the underlying database query language. Accuracy and l…

A Control Theory inspired Exploration Method for a Linear Bandit driven by a Linear Gaussian Dynamical System
The paper introduces a linear bandit environment where the reward is the output of a known Linear Gaussian Dynamical System (LGDS). In this environment, we address the fundamental challenge of balancing exploration -- gathering information about the environment -- and exploitation -- selecting to the action with the highest predicted reward. We propose two algorithms, Kalman filter Upper Confidence Bound (Kalman-UCB) and Information filter Directed Exploration Action-selection (IDEA). Kalman-UC…

LR-WaveHoltz: A Low-Rank Helmholtz Solver
We propose a low-rank method for solving the Helmholtz equation. Our approach is based on the WaveHoltz method, which computes Helmholtz solutions by applying a time-domain filter to the solution of a related wave equation. The wave equation is discretized by high-order multiblock summation-by-parts finite differences. In two dimensions we use the singular value decomposition and in three dimensions we use tensor trains to compress the numerical solution. To control rank growth we use step-trun…

Investigating the need for a robust ultraviolet filter set aboard the Habitable Worlds Observatory
High resolution, ultraviolet imaging is often unavailable across the sky, even in heavily studied fields such as the Chandra Deep Field - South. The Habitable Worlds Observatory is one of two upcoming missions with the possibility of significant UV capabilities, and the only one early enough in development to consider suggestions to its design. In this paper, we conduct an initial study of how current common UV filter sets affect the results of spectral energy distribution fitting for the estim…

TAG-K: Tail-Averaged Greedy Kaczmarz for Computationally Efficient and Performant Online Inertial Parameter Estimation
Accurate online inertial parameter estimation is essential for adaptive robotic control, enabling real-time adjustment to payload changes, environmental interactions, and system wear. Traditional methods such as Recursive Least Squares (RLS) and the Kalman Filter (KF) often struggle to track abrupt parameter shifts or incur high computational costs, limiting their effectiveness in dynamic environments and for computationally constrained robotic systems. As such, we introduce TAG-K, a lightweigh…

Movable Antenna Enhanced Covert Dual-Functional Radar-Communication: Joint Beamforming and Antenna Position Optimization
Movable antenna (MA) has emerged as a promising technology to flexibly reconfigure wireless channels by adjusting antenna placement. In this paper, we study a dual-functional radar-communication (DFRC) system enhanced with movable antennas. To ensure communication security, we aim to maximize the achievable sum rate by jointly optimizing the transmit beamforming vectors, receiving filter, and antenna placement, subject to radar signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance and transmission covertness…

Towards Label-Free Biological Reasoning Synthetic Dataset Creation via Uncertainty Filtering
Synthetic chain-of-thought (CoT) traces are widely used to train large reasoning models (LRMs), improving generalization by providing step-level supervision. Yet most approaches require ground-truth labels to seed or filter these traces - an expensive bottleneck in domains like biology where wet-lab data are scarce. We propose a label-free alternative: uncertainty-based filtering, which uses a model's own confidence - quantified through established uncertainty metrics like self-consistency and …

Decentralized CBF-based Safety Filters for Collision Avoidance of Cooperative Missile Systems with Input Constraints
This paper presents a decentralized safety filter for collision avoidance in multi-agent aerospace interception scenarios. The approach leverages robust control barrier functions (RCBFs) to guarantee forward invariance of safety sets under bounded inputs and high-relative-degree dynamics. Each effector executes its nominal cooperative guidance command, while a local quadratic program (QP) modifies the input only when necessary. Event-triggered activation based on range and zero-effort miss (ZEM…

Point Cloud-Based Control Barrier Functions for Model Predictive Control in Safety-Critical Navigation of Autonomous Mobile Robots
In this work, we propose a novel motion planning algorithm to facilitate safety-critical navigation for autonomous mobile robots. The proposed algorithm integrates a real-time dynamic obstacle tracking and mapping system that categorizes point clouds into dynamic and static components. For dynamic point clouds, the Kalman filter is employed to estimate and predict their motion states. Based on these predictions, we extrapolate the future states of dynamic point clouds, which are subsequently me…
