US immigration officers made false and misleading statements
in their reports about several Los Angeles protesters they arrested during the massive demonstrations that rocked the city in June,
according to federal law enforcement files obtained by the Guardian.
The officers’ testimony was cited in at least five cases filed by the US Department of Justice amid the unrest.
The justice department has charged at least 26 people with “assaulting” and “impeding” federal off…

Learned Off-aperture Encoding for Wide Field-of-view RGBD Imaging
End-to-end (E2E) designed imaging systems integrate coded optical designs with decoding algorithms to enhance imaging fidelity for diverse visual tasks. However, existing E2E designs encounter significant challenges in maintaining high image fidelity at wide fields of view, due to high computational complexity, as well as difficulties in modeling off-axis wave propagation while accounting for off-axis aberrations. In particular, the common approach of placing the encoding element into the apert…

Enhancement of J x B electron acceleration with the micro-structured target and picosecond high-contrast relativistic-intensity laser pulse
Efficient generation of multi-hundred-keV electrons is essential for isochoric heating and can influence ion acceleration. We investigated electron acceleration from copper-oleate foil targets, either planar or coated with a gold mesh structure (bar width $5,μ\mathrm{m}$, spacing $7.5,μ\mathrm{m}$, thickness $\sim6,μ\mathrm{m}$), irradiated by $1.5$-ps, $350$-J LFEX laser pulses. Two laser-contrast conditions were examined: high ($\sim10^{10}$, with a plasma mirror) and low ($\sim10^{8}$, wi…

Assemble Your Crew: Automatic Multi-agent Communication Topology Design via Autoregressive Graph Generation
Multi-agent systems (MAS) based on large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a powerful solution for dealing with complex problems across diverse domains. The effectiveness of MAS is critically dependent on its collaboration topology, which has become a focal point for automated design research. However, existing approaches are fundamentally constrained by their reliance on a template graph modification paradigm with a predefined set of agents and hard-coded interaction structures, significa…

Can Large Language Models Be Trusted Paper Reviewers? A Feasibility Study
Academic paper review typically requires substantial time, expertise, and human resources. Large Language Models (LLMs) present a promising method for automating the review process due to their extensive training data, broad knowledge base, and relatively low usage cost. This work explores the feasibility of using LLMs for academic paper review by proposing an automated review system. The system integrates Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), the AutoGen multi-agent system, and Chain-of-Though…

The Community Index: A More Comprehensive Approach to Assessing Scholarly Impact
The h index is a widely recognized metric for assessing the research impact of scholars, defined as the maximum value h such that the scholar has published h papers each cited at least h times. While it has proven useful measuring individual scholarly productivity and citation impact, the h index has limitations, such as an inability to account for interdisciplinary collaboration or demographic differences in citation patterns. Moreover, it is sometimes mistakenly treated as a measure of resear…

Scavenger+: Revisiting Space-Time Tradeoffs in Key-Value Separated LSM-trees
Key-Value Stores (KVS) based on log-structured merge-trees (LSM-trees) are widely used in storage systems but face significant challenges, such as high write amplification caused by compaction. KV-separated LSM-trees address write amplification but introduce significant space amplification, a critical concern in cost-sensitive scenarios. Garbage collection (GC) can reduce space amplification, but existing strategies are often inefficient and fail to account for workload characteristics. Moreove…

Homogenization of non-symmetric convolution type operators
The paper studies homogenization problem for a bounded in $L_2(\mathbb R^d)$ convolution type operator ${\mathbb A}_\eps$, $\eps >0$, of the form $$ ({\mathbb A}_\eps u) (\x) = \eps^{-d-2} \int_{\R^d} a((\x-\y)/\eps) μ(\x/\eps, \y/\eps) \left( u(\x) - u(\y) \right)\,d\y. $$ It is assumed that $a(\x)$ is a non-negative function from $L_1(\R^d)$, and $μ(\x,\y)$ is a periodic in $\x$ and $\y$ function such that $0< μ_- \leqslant μ(\x,\y) \leqslant μ_+< \infty$. No symmetry assumption on $a(\c…
