Theropod tracks "of a very large dinosaur for which we currently have no skeletal evidence." Mill Canyon site, near Moab, Utah #FossilFriday

Plaque. "LARGE THEROPOD TRACKS The large, well-preserved tracks in front of you are the beginning of a 17-step trackway of a very large, carnivorous dinosaur. Tracks of a similar dinosaur have also been found in central Texas. The tracks here are about 16-20 inches long and are from a dinosaur that was at least 8 feet tall at the hip. The intriguing thing about these tracks is that they indicate the presence of a very large dinosaur for which we currently have no skeletal evidence. A very larg…

« Les autocrates africains assimilent la démocratie au colonialisme pour masquer leurs propres échecs »
Prétendre que seul un régime fort peut assurer le développement contredit la réalité : aucun autocrate africain ne peut se vanter d’une telle performance, explique, dans sa chronique, Philippe Bernard, éditorialiste au « Monde ».

Thank you so much to @… for hosting us today and showing us around some of the fascinating venues on Telegraphenberg in the Wissenschaftspark Albert Einstein as well as your Potsdamer Babelsberg site! We saw the impressive Great Refractor, the famous Einsteinturm, and enjoyed a very inspiring talk by Prof. Poppenhaeger.

Inside a large cupola with a wooden roof, a group of people are looking at a large refractor telescope. It's two very long tubes on a mount, painted dark green. The instrument is huge in comparison to the people standing underneath it.

SPFT-SQL: Enhancing Large Language Model for Text-to-SQL Parsing by Self-Play Fine-Tuning

SPFT-SQL: Enhancing Large Language Model for Text-to-SQL Parsing by Self-Play Fine-Tuning
Despite the significant advancements of self-play fine-tuning (SPIN), which can transform a weak large language model (LLM) into a strong one through competitive interactions between models of varying capabilities, it still faces challenges in the Text-to-SQL task. SPIN does not generate new information, and the large number of correct SQL queries produced by the opponent model during self-play reduces the main model's ability to generate accurate SQL queries. To address this challenge, we prop…

Claude Sonnet 4.0 describes the image as: "I can see this appears to be from a science fiction television production, showing a man with curly dark hair wearing what looks like a light-colored or beige garment. The setting appears to be indoors with neutral-toned walls or surfaces in the background. The lighting and image quality suggest this is from a television production from several decades ago. The person appears to be in some kind of scene or dialogue moment. However, I cannot identify wh…

Prediction of Large Events in Directed Sandpiles

Prediction of Large Events in Directed Sandpiles
The degree of predictability of large avalanche events in the directed sandpile model is studied. A waiting time based prediction strategy which exploits the local anticorrelation of large events is discussed. With this strategy we show analytically and numerically that large events are predictable to some extent, and that this predictability persists in the thermodynamic limit. We introduce another strategy which predicts large avalanches in the future based on the present excess density in th…
