A software package to ease the use of neural radiance fields in robotics research
Neural radiance fields (NeRFs) are advanced machine learning techniques that can generate three-dimensional (3D) representations of objects or environments from two-dimensional (2D) images. As these...
The first experimental observation of subpicosecond electron bunches originating from an ultracold source
Identifying new sources that produce electrons faster could help to advance the many imaging techniques that rely on electrons. In a recent paper published in Physical Review Letters, a team of...
The observation of a quantum disordered ground state in a triangular lattice magnet
Magnetic materials with a triangular lattice have been the focus of numerous research studies, as theoretical predictions suggest that they could exhibit spin liquid states. These are quantum phases...
Study tests the potential of two quantum machine learning algorithms for malware classification
Over the past decades, cyber attackers have become increasingly skilled at compromising systems and circumventing security measures. As a result, detecting and accurately identifying malware is a...
A model that can realistically insert humans into images
The recent advent of generative models, computational tools that can generate new texts or images based on the data they are trained on, opened interesting new possibilities for the creative...
A strategy to induce the formation of a stable salt-derived solid electrolyte interphase in lithium metal batteries
Lithium metal batteries are promising battery solutions that use metallic lithium as an anode. Instead of containing electrode materials that store lithium ions, like commonly employed lithium-ion...
A new approach for map densification in visual place recognition
Visual place recognition (VPR) is the task of identifying the location where specific images were taken. Computer scientists have recently developed various deep learning algorithms that could...
Self-healable and crack-resistant hydrogel microfibers inspired by spider silk
In recent years, material scientists have been creating new materials with a variety of advantageous properties that could enhance the performance of different technologies and devices. This...
Topologically structured light detects the position of nano-objects with atomic resolution
Optical imaging and metrology techniques are key tools for research rooted in biology, medicine and nanotechnology. While these techniques have recently become increasingly advanced, the resolutions...
Could dark photon dark matter be directly detected using radio telescopes?
Dark matter, matter in the universe that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, cannot be directly detected using conventional telescopes or other imaging technologies. Astrophysicists have thus...
