Bangladesh aims to revive five critically endangered plants
For the first time in its history, Bangladesh is attempting to protect five species from extinction by increasing their numbers and strengthening their population in the wild. The floral species are bulborox (Bulbophyllum roxburghii), the small-bulb orchid Bulbophyllum oblongum, dwarf date palm (Phoenix acaulis), chaulmoogra (Hydnocarpus kurzii) and bash pata (Podocarpus neriifolius). All of them are […]

Towards Lean Research Inception: Assessing Practical Relevance of Formulated Research Problems
[Context] The lack of practical relevance in many Software Engineering (SE) research contributions is often rooted in oversimplified views of industrial practice, weak industry connections, and poorly defined research problems. Clear criteria for evaluating SE research problems can help align their value, feasibility, and applicability with industrial needs. [Goal] In this paper, we introduce the Lean Research Inception (LRI) framework, designed to support the formulation and assessment of prac…

Towards Neural Audio Codec Source Parsing
A new class of audio deepfakes-codecfakes (CFs)-has recently caught attention, synthesized by Audio Language Models that leverage neural audio codecs (NACs) in the backend. In response, the community has introduced dedicated benchmarks and tailored detection strategies. As the field advances, efforts have moved beyond binary detection toward source attribution, including open-set attribution, which aims to identify the NAC responsible for generation and flag novel, unseen ones during inference.…

Numerical tests of cosmological Alfvén waves with Ohmic diffusion
Physical problems with a solution that can be expressed analytically are scarce; this holds even more true for problems set in a cosmological context. Such solutions are, however, invaluable tools for making comparisons between theory, numerical experimentation and observations. In this work we present what to our knowledge is the first set of non-trivial closed-form expressions describing the behaviour of a system governed by the equations of non-ideal Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), where the eff…

Ultrafast non-volatile rewritable ferroaxial switching
Ultrafast switching of ferroic phases is an important research frontier, with significant technological potential. Yet, current efforts are meeting some key challenges, ranging from limited speeds in ferromagnets to intrinsic volatility of switched domains due to uncompensated depolarizing fields in ferroelectrics. Unlike these ferroic systems, ferroaxial materials host bistable states that do not break spatial-inversion or time-reversal symmetry, and are therefore immune to depolarizing fields…
