Are NFTs Ready to Keep Australian Artists Engaged?
Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) offer a promising mechanism to protect Australian and Indigenous artists' copyright. They represent and transfer the value of artwork in digital form. Before adopting NFTs to protect Australian artwork, we in this paper investigate them empericially. We focus on examining the details of NFT structure. We start from the underlying structure of NFTs to show how they represent copyright for both artists and production owners, as well as how they aim to safeguard or secur…

Assessing Learned Models for Phase-only Hologram Compression
We evaluate the performance of four common learned models utilizing INR and VAE structures for compressing phase-only holograms in holographic displays. The evaluated models include a vanilla MLP, SIREN, and FilmSIREN, with TAESD as the representative VAE model. Our experiments reveal that a pretrained image VAE, TAESD, with 2.2M parameters struggles with phase-only hologram compression, revealing the need for task-specific adaptations. Among the INRs, SIREN with 4.9k parameters achieves %40 co…

Opto-ViT: Architecting a Near-Sensor Region of Interest-Aware Vision Transformer Accelerator with Silicon Photonics
Vision Transformers (ViTs) have emerged as a powerful architecture for computer vision tasks due to their ability to model long-range dependencies and global contextual relationships. However, their substantial compute and memory demands hinder efficient deployment in scenarios with strict energy and bandwidth limitations. In this work, we propose OptoViT, the first near-sensor, region-aware ViT accelerator leveraging silicon photonics (SiPh) for real-time and energy-efficient vision processing…

Bitte unterschreiben: Die Innenminister sollen ein AfD Verbot auf den Web bringen: #noafd

AfD-Verbotsverfahren - Brand New Bundestag
Unterschreibe jetzt! Wir appellieren an die Innenministerkonferenz: Weg frei für ein AfD-Verbotsverfahren!

Found an old review, really loved working with New Noveta back in 2019:
"The two young performers get straight to work making the attendees at the edges of the room feel uncomfortable, grasping each other's bodies, screaming and crying, while brandishing what appears to be a giant folding fan made of 2ft blades. The pair chase each other on foot through the crowd, pushing people in all directions and never looking anything other than distressed, disturbed or downright terrified…

Heute vor 63 Jahren: Am 6. Juli 1962 zündeten die #USA im Rahmen von Operation Storax die Atombombe "Sedan". Storax war eine Serie von #Kernwaffentests bei der 62/63 insgesamt 47 Bomben im Testgebiet in #Nevada

In #Schorndorf waren wir an die 350 und laut gegen den „Bürger Dialog“ der Noafd. Bericht der ZvW (€) https://www.zvw.de/lokales/schorndorf/nie-
