Trojan Horse Hunt in Time Series Forecasting for Space Operations
This competition hosted on Kaggle (https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/trojan-horse-hunt-in-space) is the first part of a series of follow-up competitions and hackathons related to the "Assurance for Space Domain AI Applications" project funded by the European Space Agency (https://assurance-ai.space-codev.org/). The competition idea is based on one of the real-life AI security threats identified within the project -- the adversarial poisoning of continuously fine-tuned satellite telemetry fore…

Today we spend the first summer evening at Hafenkneipe / Donaukanal, watching bats and swifts hunt (and while swifts are amazing flyers, bats fly even crazier)

Formation of the Two-Armed Phase Spiral from Multiple External Perturbations
Recent studies using the Gaia DR3 data have revealed a two-armed phase spiral in the $Z-V_Z$ phase space in the inner disk. In this study, we present new features of the two-armed phase spiral revealed by the Gaia Data and a new mechanism to explain such features with multiple external perturbations. By segmenting the Gaia DR3 RVS catalog based on $J_ϕ$ (or $R_{g}$) and $θ_ϕ$, we confirm the existence of the clear two-armed phase spiral in the inner disk. Moreover, we identify a different tw…

Biased rate estimates in bump-hunt searches
The cleanest way to discover a new particle is generally the "bump-hunt" methodology: looking for a localised excess in a mass (or related) distribution. However, if the mass of the particle being discovered is not known the procedure of quoting the most significant excess seen is "greedy", and random fluctuations from the background can be merged with the signal. This means that an observed 3σ evidence probably has the rate over-estimated by of order 10% and the mass uncertainty underestimate…

DeePC-Hunt: Data-enabled Predictive Control Hyperparameter Tuning via Differentiable Optimization
This paper introduces Data-enabled Predictive Control Hyperparameter Tuning via Differentiable Optimization (DeePC-Hunt), a backpropagation-based method for automatic hyperparameter tuning of the DeePC algorithm. The necessity for such a method arises from the importance of hyperparameter selection to achieve satisfactory closed-loop DeePC performance. The standard methods for hyperparameter selection are to either optimize the open-loop performance, or use manual guess-and-check. Optimizing th…

Developing a Mixed-Methods Pipeline for Community-Oriented Digitization of Kwak'wala Legacy Texts
Kwak'wala is an Indigenous language spoken in British Columbia, with a rich legacy of published documentation spanning more than a century, and an active community of speakers, teachers, and learners engaged in language revitalization. Over 11 volumes of the earliest texts created during the collaboration between Franz Boas and George Hunt have been scanned but remain unreadable by machines. Complete digitization through optical character recognition has the potential to facilitate transliterat…

Potential absence of observed $π^2$ linear-chain structures in $^{14}$O via $^{10}$C($α,α$) resonant scattering
Background: The preference for light nuclear systems to coagulate into $α$-particle clusters has been well-studied. The possibility of a linear chain configuration of $α$-particles would allow for a new way to study this phenomenon. Purpose: A rotational band of states in $^{14}$C has been claimed showing a $π^2$ linear chain structure. The mirror system, $^{14}$O, has been studied here to examine how this linear chain structure is affected by replacing the valence neutrons with protons. Met…

The oldest ant fossil ever discovered had forward-facing scythe-like jaws it used to hunt, according to a new study in Current Biology. 
Now the oldest ant specimen known to science, the roughly half-inch-long 113-million-year-old impression preserved in limestone was found in northeastern Brazil, and is a new genus belonging to the “hell ant” subfamily Haidomyrmecinae. Hell ants only lived during the Cretaceous period, which ended 66 million years ago. 🧵

The Saga of $α$-RuCl$_3$: Parameters, Models, and Phase Diagrams
RuCl$_3$ was likely the first ever deliberately synthesized ruthenium compound, following the discovery of the $_{44}$Ru element in 1844. For a long time it was known as an oxidation catalyst, with its physical properties being discrepant and confusing, until a decade ago when its allotropic form $α$-RuCl$_3$ rose to exceptional prominence. This "re-discovery" of $α$-RuCl$_3$ has not only reshaped the hunt for a material manifestation of the Kitaev spin liquid, but it has opened the floodgate…

I’m currently playing Jedi Outcast on the #NintendoSwitch
I played it when I was around 15 I think so about 20 years ago.
It is still a lot of fun and I love the fact that there is no auto healing but you have to hunt for medi packs.
However I could do with a bit more auto aim.
My controller skills are still very poor.
