FRIREN: Beyond Trajectories -- A Spectral Lens on Time
Long-term time-series forecasting (LTSF) models are often presented as general-purpose solutions that can be applied across domains, implicitly assuming that all data is pointwise predictable. Using chaotic systems such as Lorenz-63 as a case study, we argue that geometric structure - not pointwise prediction - is the right abstraction for a dynamic-agnostic foundational model. Minimizing the Wasserstein-2 distance (W2), which captures geometric changes, and providing a spectral view of dynamic…

Thomas Nagel thinks most people use reason to create a unified world view.
I think almost everyone have a very limited window into reason, and that their "unified" view is jam-packed full of self-contradictions.
I'm right. No, no thanks is necessary. Carry on.

The media focus on this one criticism is insane, just massive focus on ensuring everybody is quoted as being against Bob's chant.
The manufacturing of consent in plain view. No support of Bob allowed to be quoted, only condemnation. No focus at all on the horrors committed by the army itself, just condemnation and contrition from all corners.
And all so much louder than the coverage of death and hunger and destruction and genocide being committed by that army.
Our media environment is so focused and in lock-step, even though it's in theory free. Yet not a single newspaper saying, you know, the Vylan character has a point! Maybe we should disband a criminal army!
Got confused about the date in the show here, but the reading's about right. The bandwagon rolls on because it's a victory for everyone. The media gets to condemn someone, and they don't have to condemn Israel.

An energy approach to pulsar-disc interaction: disc stability and implications for transitional millisecond pulsars
The stability of an accretion disc surrounding a millisecond pulsar is analysed from an energetic point of view, using magnetohydrodynamic simulations that consider realistic disc structures and a variety of magnetic field inclination angles. The time-averaged components of the magnetic field interact with the disc through ohmic dissipation, which causes heating and partial evaporation of its innermost region. The stability of the disc right after the magnetic field is turned on is analysed as …

And yes, please, please, please view anyone raising money to expose some theoretical 2024 election tampering as a Steinesque grifter. They are conning you. And they are more likely than not conning you to fund some right-wing benefactor holding their puppet strings — or at best they’re just an old-fashioned charlatan. Ignore.

We've got buried treasure on view in a new display at the museum. Thanks to a recent gift and the work of a consultant and a staff member, we're displaying mingqi, or "spirit goods," in two adjoining cases in the permanent collection. Read on to learn more about how this grouping of well-preserved objects came together.

Generalized Inverses of Quaternion Matrices with Applications
This study investigates the theoretical and computational aspects of quaternion generalized inverses, focusing on outer inverses and {1,2}-inverses with prescribed range and/or null space constraints. In view of non-commutative nature of quaternions, a detailed characterization of the left and right range and null spaces of quaternion matrices is presented. Explicit representations for these inverses are derived, including full rank decomposition-based formulations. We design two efficient algo…

US political contradictions; knowledge systems
As Trump at least partially succeeds in constructing an alternate reality for his most ardent followers, it's tempting to think of his dogma as false, in contrast to some imagined "truth" which his non-followers are smart enough to believe in. But a more nuanced view of knowledge would admit that different groups of people have different shared truths, constituting different knowledge systems which each deviate from what's objectively measurable in different ways, and in fact they each accept different standards of what is objective, so there's not really a single "ground truth" we can even compare to to determine which of these knowledge systems is "more correct" (similar problems arise even if we only care about "more useful").
To make this more concrete, we can see that e.g., competing quantum physics theories, or likewise competing religious beliefs, have no reasonable basis on which to judge between them, either in terms of "truth" or "utility." So the Trump-dogma knowledge system, although bad, morally repugnant, etc., can't so easily be dismissed as "false" in my view. "Distorted" or "malignant" or "evil" or "contradictory" are better monikers, in my opinion.
But what I'm even more interested in thinking about is: in what ways does the current American liberal "common sense" knowledge system already bear the scars of past fascist lies & contradictions? I can think of a few:
"Columbus was an explorer."
This is "factually accurate" in the same way some of Trump's propaganda is, but it's also a cruel distortion of "Columbus was a child murderer," and it's a misrepresentation that serves an evil purpose, yet which is widely taught in elementary schools today.
Another: "dropping atomic bombs on civilians in Japan was necessary to end WWII."
Perhaps in the future we'll have "family separation & the 2025 ICE crackdowns were necessary to end the immigration crisis," although I dearly hope not.
"Reparations for slavery aren't reasonable," is yet another...
I'll close this rambling with a question: what other fascist lies have you noticed that are normalized in America right now from past Trump-like leaders (or even from less overtly fascist institutions)?

LATENTRED main board layout progress: got most of the GTYs and FPGA-MCU paths done, as well as the RGMII PHY.
Still lots more to do but I'm liking the floorplan, at least the parts that I've done.
I'm debating moving the RGMII PHY to the west a bit and adding a fan cutout directly behind the FPGA so that I can have it suck exhaust air right past the FPGA (possibly with a 3d printed air dam or something in the future). Will need to spend some time thinking about therma…

A Red Teaming Roadmap Towards System-Level Safety
Large Language Model (LLM) safeguards, which implement request refusals, have become a widely adopted mitigation strategy against misuse. At the intersection of adversarial machine learning and AI safety, safeguard red teaming has effectively identified critical vulnerabilities in state-of-the-art refusal-trained LLMs. However, in our view the many conference submissions on LLM red teaming do not, in aggregate, prioritize the right research problems. First, testing against clear product safety …

On spatial decay for coherent states of the Benjamin-Ono equation
We consider solutions to the Benjamin-Ono equation $$\partial_t u - H \partial_x^2 u = -\partial_x(u^2)$$ which are localized in a reference frame moving to the right with constant speed. We show that any such solution that decays at least like $\langle x\rangle^{-1-ε}$ for some $ε> 0$ in a comoving coordinate frame must in fact decay like $\langle x\rangle^{-2}$. In view of the explicit soliton solutions, this decay rate is sharp. Our proof has two main ingredients. The first is microloc…
