UniFusion: Vision-Language Model as Unified Encoder in Image Generation
Although recent advances in visual generation have been remarkable, most existing architectures still depend on distinct encoders for images and text. This separation constrains diffusion models' ability to perform cross-modal reasoning and knowledge transfer. Prior attempts to bridge this gap often use the last layer information from VLM, employ multiple visual encoders, or train large unified models jointly for text and image generation, which demands substantial computational resources and l…

The way he’s threading the needle of talking about the ICE / local police interactions is fascinating: his line is that Mpls Police being called to deal with ICE (e.g. “there’s an abductee’s abandoned car” or 911 call “omg ICE is at my door”) is an unlawful federal commandeering of local police resources.
I say fascinating because that line of argument has legs regardless of whether police helped ICE or pushed back against ICE, whether the police did the right thing or the wrong thing in any given encounter.

TorchCor: High-Performance Cardiac Electrophysiology Simulations with the Finite Element Method on GPUs
Cardiac electrophysiology (CEP) simulations are increasingly used for understanding cardiac arrhythmias and guiding clinical decisions. However, these simulations typically require high-performance computing resources with numerous CPU cores, which are often inaccessible to many research groups and clinicians. To address this, we present TorchCor, a high-performance Python library for CEP simulations using the finite element method on general-purpose GPUs. Built on PyTorch, TorchCor significant…

FedLoDrop: Federated LoRA with Dropout for Generalized LLM Fine-tuning
Fine-tuning (FT) large language models (LLMs) is crucial for adapting general-purpose models to specific tasks, enhancing accuracy and relevance with minimal resources. To further enhance generalization ability while reducing training costs, this paper proposes Federated LoRA with Dropout (FedLoDrop), a new framework that applies dropout to the rows and columns of the trainable matrix in Federated LoRA.

Quantum thermodynamics of Gross-Pitaevskii qubits
What are the resources that can be leveraged for a thermodynamic device to exhibit genuine quantum advantage? Typically, the answer to this question is sought in quantum correlations.

To this end, we develop a comprehensive thermodynamic description of nonlinear qubits starting with identifying the proper thermodynamic equilibrium state. We then show that for ideal …

I would like to go on record to say that I don't hate LLMs. That would be like disowning maths.
I hate how people sell it with promises that are simply lies and urging people to use it for things that it is unsuitable for, with the commercial LLMs how they train models on stolen data, how users talk themselves into believing they're talking to a human or something human-like while deskilling themselves, how institutions and organizations shoehorn it into every fucking thing, the way it is usurping computing resources and increasing prices for personal computing, how the big companies underhandedly continuously threaten everyone with "if we don't invest enough the Terminators will get us" and how it is used for very obvious large-scale financial fraud. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you are tuning in for Canadian trivia and bad puns.... prepare to be disappointed. I'm once again hijacking my morning post to ask all Canadian Mastodonians for input.
Question for all MastoCanucks - how would you convince a politician or government dept/agency to join Mastodon? What are the key points that should be made to motivate our government accounts to make a move?
There will be lots of repetitive answers but feel free to expand on those. Also chime in on what questions or resources government accounts might need to successfully launch a Mastodon account (overcoming resistance). If you volunteer to help contact government individuals, what resources do you need to help support your efforts (enabling scale and shared purpose)?

Overnight news of Trump attacking another country in a blatant attempt to seize their resources should be a wakeup call for Canada. Does anyone here think a strike on Ottawa to remove the current government couldn't happen? Could the U.S. find a stooge willing to become the interim leader? How much oil, aluminum, uranium, hydropower or other resources would be looted before Trump strokes out from too many big macs. Yesterday I would have laughed at this scenario but today it starts to be less of a fantasy.
I glossed over this article when it was first published back in November but now I'm leaning towards support of developing a volunteer force in Canada.

But unfortunately a serious discussion is needed.
