10 Years After Facebook Bought Oculus, What's Next for Meta's VR Plans?
Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth talks with CNET about the past and future of VR, AR and AI.

First successful-ish prototype done. Holy crap, I want to find anyone who made a DEFCON badge and shake their hands because this has been difficult. However, still need to get the LEDs that were swept off the PCB back *on* to the PCB, then solder the header on so I can begin testing. #electronics

PEM: Prototype-based Efficient MaskFormer for Image Segmentation
Recent transformer-based architectures have shown impressive results in the field of image segmentation. Thanks to their flexibility, they obtain outstanding performance in multiple segmentation tasks, such as semantic and panoptic, under a single unified framework. To achieve such impressive performance, these architectures employ intensive operations and require substantial computational resources, which are often not available, especially on edge devices. To fill this gap, we propose Prototy…

Open Experimental Measurements of Sub-6GHz Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces
In this paper, we present two datasets that we make publicly available for research. The data is collected in a testbed comprised of a custom-made Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) prototype and two regular OFDM transceivers within an anechoic chamber. First, we discuss the details of the testbed and equipment used, including insights about the design and implementation of our RIS prototype. We further present the methodology we employ to gather measurement samples, which consists of let…

Prototype-based Interpretable Breast Cancer Prediction Models: Analysis and Challenges
Deep learning models have achieved high performance in medical applications, however, their adoption in clinical practice is hindered due to their black-box nature. Self-explainable models, like prototype-based models, can be especially beneficial as they are interpretable by design. However, if the learnt prototypes are of low quality then the prototype-based models are as good as black-box. Having high quality prototypes is a pre-requisite for a truly interpretable model. In this work, we pro…
