Richard #Grenell (#USA, former ambassador to Germany) is a conceited macho, not particularly intelligent, but obsessed with power. These fifth-rate types, who suddenly see their political opportunities, prove to be particularly perfidious.
Grenell should be declared persona non grata by the EU.

HieraRS: A Hierarchical Segmentation Paradigm for Remote Sensing Enabling Multi-Granularity Interpretation and Cross-Domain Transfer
Hierarchical land cover and land use (LCLU) classification aims to assign pixel-wise labels with multiple levels of semantic granularity to remote sensing (RS) imagery. However, existing deep learning-based methods face two major challenges: 1) They predominantly adopt a flat classification paradigm, which limits their ability to generate end-to-end multi-granularity hierarchical predictions aligned with tree-structured hierarchies used in practice. 2) Most cross-domain studies focus on perform…

Beyond Single-Granularity Prompts: A Multi-Scale Chain-of-Thought Prompt Learning for Graph
The "pre-train, prompt'' paradigm, designed to bridge the gap between pre-training tasks and downstream objectives, has been extended from the NLP domain to the graph domain and has achieved remarkable progress. Current mainstream graph prompt-tuning methods modify input or output features using learnable prompt vectors. However, existing approaches are confined to single-granularity (e.g., node-level or subgraph-level) during prompt generation, overlooking the inherently multi-scale structural…

Granular jamming and rheology in microgravity
Understanding how granular materials behave in low gravity is crucial for planetary science and space exploration. It can also help us understand granular phenomena usually hidden by gravity. On Earth, gravity dominates granular behavior, but disentangling its role from intrinsic particle interactions is challenging. We present a series of compression and shear experiments conducted in microgravity using the Center of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) drop tower and GraviTower Br…

Li-Yau-Hamilton Inequality on the JKO Scheme for the Granular-Medium Equation
We establish a version of the Li--Yau--Hamilton inequality for the Granular-Medium equation on the torus, both at the PDE level and for its time-discrete approximation given by the JKO scheme. We then apply this estimate to derive further quantitative results for the continuous and discrete JKO flows, including Lipschitz and $L^\infty$ bounds, as well as a quantitative Harnack inequality. Finally, we use the regularity provided by this estimate to show that the JKO scheme for the Fokker--Planck…

Beyond Blanket Masking: Examining Granularity for Privacy Protection in Images Captured by Blind and Low Vision Users
As visual assistant systems powered by visual language models (VLMs) become more prevalent, concerns over user privacy have grown, particularly for blind and low vision users who may unknowingly capture personal private information in their images. Existing privacy protection methods rely on coarse-grained segmentation, which uniformly masks entire private objects, often at the cost of usability. In this work, we propose FiGPriv, a fine-grained privacy protection framework that selectively mask…

Acoustic transparency in dense granular suspensions
We demonstrate the existence of a frequency band exhibiting acoustic transparency in 2D and 3D dense granular suspensions, enabling the transmission of a low-frequency ballistic wave excited by a high-frequency broadband ultrasound pulse. This phenomenon is attributed to spatial correlations in the structural disorder of the medium. To support this interpretation, we use an existing model that incorporates such correlations via the structure factor. Its predictions are shown to agree well with …
