Volumetric Parameterization for 3-Dimensional Simply-Connected Manifolds
With advances in technology, there has been growing interest in developing effective mapping methods for 3-dimensional objects in recent years. Volumetric parameterization for 3D solid manifolds plays an important role in processing 3D data. However, the conventional approaches cannot control the bijectivity and local geometric distortions of the result mappings due to the complex structure of the solid manifolds. Moreover, prior methods mainly focus on one property instead of balancing differe…

Beyond Universality: Cultural Diversity in Music and Its Implications for Sound Design and Sonification
The Audio Mostly (AM) conference has long been a platform for exploring the intersection of sound, technology, and culture. Despite growing interest in sonic cultures, discussions on the role of cultural diversity in sound design and sonification remain limited. This paper investigates the implicit biases and gaps within the discourse on music and sound aesthetics, challenging the notion of music as a 'universal language'. Through a historical and cross-cultural analysis of musicology and ethno…

Breakthrough Listen: A Technosignature Search Around 27 Eclipsing Exoplanets Selected from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite Catalogue
Here we analyse the archival data for a set of 27 Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Targets of Interest (TOIs) in search for artificially generated radio signals, or 'technosignatures', interrupted by occultation. Exoplanetary eclipses are notable events to observe in the search for technosignatures, as they mark the geometrical alignment of the target, its host star, and Earth. During an eclipse event, any signal emanating from the target of interest should cease for the duration of…

A Survey of Earable Technology: Trends, Tools, and the Road Ahead
Earable devices, wearables positioned in or around the ear, are undergoing a rapid transformation from audio-centric accessories into multifunctional systems for interaction, contextual awareness, and health monitoring. This evolution is driven by commercial trends emphasizing sensor integration and by a surge of academic interest exploring novel sensing capabilities. Building on the foundation established by earlier surveys, this work presents a timely and comprehensive review of earable resea…

Studying all-optical magnetization switching of GdFe by double-pulse laser excitation
The tremendous interest in the technology and underlying physics of all-optical switching of magnetization brings up the question of how fast the switching can occur and how high the frequency of writing the data with ultrafast laser pulses can be. To answer this question, we excited a GdFe ferrimagnetic alloy, the magnetization of which can be reversed by single laser pulses, a phenomenon known as toggle switching, by two pulses with a certain time delay in between. Using photoemission electro…

Mainframe-style channel controllers for modern disaggregated memory systems
Despite the promise of alleviating the main memory bottleneck, and the existence of commercial hardware implementations, techniques for Near-Data Processing have seen relatively little real-world deployment. The idea has received renewed interest with the appearance of disaggregated or "far" memory, for example in the use of CXL memory pools. However, we argue that the lack of a clear OS-centric abstraction of Near-Data Processing is a major barrier to adoption of the technology. Inspired by …

Learning-Based Leader Localization for Underwater Vehicles With Optical-Acoustic-Pressure Sensor Fusion
Underwater vehicles have emerged as a critical technology for exploring and monitoring aquatic environments. The deployment of multi-vehicle systems has gained substantial interest due to their capability to perform collaborative tasks with improved efficiency. However, achieving precise localization of a leader underwater vehicle within a multi-vehicle configuration remains a significant challenge, particularly in dynamic and complex underwater conditions. To address this issue, this paper pre…

Federated Learning Assisted Edge Caching Scheme Based on Lightweight Architecture DDPM
Edge caching is an emerging technology that empowers caching units at edge nodes, allowing users to fetch contents of interest that have been pre-cached at the edge nodes. The key to pre-caching is to maximize the cache hit percentage for cached content without compromising users' privacy. In this letter, we propose a federated learning (FL) assisted edge caching scheme based on lightweight architecture denoising diffusion probabilistic model (LDPM). Our simulation results verify that our propo…

Multi-Waveguide Pinching Antennas for ISAC
Recently, a novel flexible-antenna technology, called pinching antennas, has attracted growing academic interest. By inserting discrete dielectric materials, pinching antennas can be activated at arbitrary points along waveguides, allowing for flexible customization of large-scale path loss. This paper investigates a multi-waveguide pinching-antenna integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) system, where transmit pinching antennas (TPAs) and receive pinching antennas (RPAs) coordinate to sim…

Saccharinity with ccc
Using creature technology, we construct families of Suslin ccc non-sweet forcing notions $\mathbb Q$ such that $ZFC$ is equiconsistent with $ZF+$"every set of reals equals a Borel set modulo the $(\leq \aleph_1)$-closure of the null ideal associated with $\mathbb Q$"+"there is an $ω_1$-sequence of distinct reals". This answers a question of the second author and Kellner. As an application of independent interest, we also show how our forcing adds a new $Π^1_2$ singleton over $L$ without relyi…

Rotatable Antenna Enabled Wireless Communication and Sensing: Opportunities and Challenges
Non-fixed flexible antenna architectures, including fluid antenna systems (FAS) and movable antennas (MA), have attracted considerable interest in recent years. Rotatable antenna (RA) is an emerging technology that offers significant potential to enhance wireless communication and sensing performance by flexibly adjusting the boresight of directional antennas. Specifically, RA can flexibly reconfigure its boresight direction via mechanical or electronic means, thereby improving communication ch…
