MC-PDFT Nuclear Gradients and L-PDFT Energies with Meta and Hybrid Meta On-Top Functionals for Ground- and Excited-State Geometry Optimization and Vertical Excitation Energies
Multiconfiguration pair-density functional theory (MC-PDFT) is a post-MCSCF multireference electronic-structure method that explicitly models strong electron correlation, and linearized pair-density functional theory (L-PDFT) is a recently developed multi-state extension that can accurately model conical intersections and locally-avoided crossings. Because MC-PDFT and L-PDFT rely on an on-top energy functional, their accuracy depends on the quality of the on-top functional used. Recent work has…

EvalAssist: A Human-Centered Tool for LLM-as-a-Judge
With the broad availability of large language models and their ability to generate vast outputs using varied prompts and configurations, determining the best output for a given task requires an intensive evaluation process, one where machine learning practitioners must decide how to assess the outputs and then carefully carry out the evaluation. This process is both time-consuming and costly. As practitioners work with an increasing number of models, they must now evaluate outputs to determine …

Dangerous Questions in Astronomy Education
As astronomy enters an era defined by global telescope networks, petabyte-scale surveys, and powerful computational tools, the longstanding goals of astronomy education, particularly introductory ``ASTRO101'', but equally encompassing both higher and lower level courses, warrant fresh examination. In June 2024, the AstroEdUNC meeting at UNC--Chapel Hill convened 100 astronomers, education researchers, and practitioners to synthesise community perspectives on the purpose, content, and delivery o…

FLARE: A Dataflow-Aware and Scalable Hardware Architecture for Neural-Hybrid Scientific Lossy Compression
Scientific simulation leveraging high-performance computing (HPC) systems is crucial for modeling complex systems and phenomena in fields such as astrophysics, climate science, and fluid dynamics, generating massive datasets that often reach petabyte to exabyte scales. However, managing these vast data volumes introduces significant I/O and network bottlenecks, limiting practical performance and scalability. While cutting-edge lossy compression frameworks powered by deep neural networks (DNNs) …

Vespa.ai’s Personalized Search: Advanced Ranking & Tensor framework
Today’s applications require search engines to unify text, vectors, and business logic with millisecond latency at petabyte scale. It’s not easy to balance speed, relevance, and personalization for a large user population and a billion scale item base. Vespa.ai, the open-source engine powering Yahoo, Perplexity, Qwant, Vinted, Spotify addresses this through multi-stage ranking with close to data tensor operations and easy to understand custom functions. Vespa’s phased architecture enables…

Ympäristöjärjestöt pettyivät ehdotukseen metsiensuojeluohjelma METSOn jatkokaudesta: “Suomalaiset metsänomistajat ansaitsevat parempaa”

Ympäristöjärjestöt pettyivät ehdotukseen metsiensuojeluohjelma METSOn jatkokaudesta: “Suomalaiset metsänomistajat ansaitsevat parempaa”  - Greenpeace Suomi
Järjestöjen mukaan METSOn seurantaryhmän esittämä ohjelmaluonnos ei vastaa Suomen kansainvälisiin sitoumuksiin eikä hallitusohjelman tavoitteisiin luontokadon pysäyttämisestä.
