dutch_school: Dutch school friendships (2003)
A series of snapshots of the friendships among freshmen at secondary school in The Netherlands, in 2003-2004. Friendship ties were surveyed four times, at three month intervals. The direction of an edge indicates that student i is friends with student j. Missing data is coded as 0 or 10. Metadata includes sex, age, ethnicity, and religion.
This network has 26 nodes and 91 edges.

Dziś dowiedziałem się, że "nozologia" to nauka, zajmująca się klasyfikacją chorób. Nie nosami.

KLASSify to Verify: Audio-Visual Deepfake Detection Using SSL-based Audio and Handcrafted Visual Features
The rapid development of audio-driven talking head generators and advanced Text-To-Speech (TTS) models has led to more sophisticated temporal deepfakes. These advances highlight the need for robust methods capable of detecting and localizing deepfakes, even under novel, unseen attack scenarios. Current state-of-the-art deepfake detectors, while accurate, are often computationally expensive and struggle to generalize to novel manipulation techniques. To address these challenges, we propose multi…

GPU-Accelerated Syndrome Decoding for Quantum LDPC Codes below the 63 $μ$s Latency Threshold
This paper presents a GPU-accelerated decoder for quantum low-density parity-check (QLDPC) codes that achieves sub-$63$ $μ$s latency, below the surface code decoder's real-time threshold demonstrated on Google's Willow quantum processor. While surface codes have demonstrated below-threshold performance, the encoding rates approach zero as code distances increase, posing challenges for scalability. Recently proposed QLDPC codes, such as those by Panteleev and Kalachev, offer constant-rate encod…

Kahlgefressen und ausgebleicht: Great Barrier Reef verliert so viele Korallen wie seit 39 Jahren nicht
Das Great Barrier Reef steht unter massivem Stress - schon länger, aber in den letzten Monaten besonders: Wirbelstürme, hohe Temperaturen und gefräßige Seesterne setzen dem Riff zu. Das führt zum schwersten Verlust an Korallen seit Beginn der Messungen vor fast 40 Jahren.

Recent Progress on Fractal Percolation
This is a survey paper about the fractal percolation process, also known as Mandelbrot percolation. It is intended to give a general breadth overview of more recent research in the topic, but also includes some of the more classical results, for example related to the connectivity properties. Particular emphasis is put on the dimension theory of the limiting set and also on the geometry of the non-trivial connected components in the supercritical regime. In particular, we show that both the Ass…
