At the subantarctic islands of South Georgia, albatrosses and petrels occupy a range of trophic niches, from zooplanktivore to top predator. Interspecific variation in mercury (Hg) contamination is th...
Economic analysis of effective policies for managing epidemics requires an integrated economic and epidemiological approach. We develop and estimate a spatial, micro-founded model of the joint evoluti...
Large Language Models (LLMs) still struggle with multi-step logical reasoning. Existing approaches either purely refine the reasoning chain in natural language form or attach a symbolic solver as an e...
As language models are increasingly deployed for complex autonomous tasks, their ability to reason accurately over longer horizons becomes critical. An essential component of this ability is planning ...
Coral reef ecosystems are declining rapidly due to climate change, disease, and anthropogenic stressors, driving the expansion of land-based coral propagation for reef restoration. A major bottleneck ...
"Vibe coding" and "vibe analytics" have been framed as a democratization of technical capability. This paper argues that AI-assisted methodology more broadly, or what I call "vibe methodology," also d...
Multifunctional materials that balance mechanical resilience and fluid dynamic efficiency are critical in engineering applications, yet their synergistic optimization remains challenging due to inhere...
There is a common misconception among ocean scientists and policy makers that mesopelagic (200-1000 m) food webs are an unexploited "final frontier" of living marine resources. It is true that there a...
The Central Arctic Ocean is undergoing rapid environmental change associated with sea-ice retreat. The sea-ice bottom and adjacent under-ice waters are key zones for particulate organic matter (POM) a...
Southeast Asia continues to be a global hotspot for marine litter pollution, where several countries in this region are repeatedly identified as top contributors of land-based waste leakages into the ...
Current automated pipelines for audio-visual Question Answering (QA) generally adopt a ``video-caption-QA'' paradigm. However, these methods typically segment videos into short clips and generate sepa...
The reconstruction of physically valid transport fields from subject-specific imaging data is a fundamental challenge in image-based computational modeling due to measurement noise, modeling uncertain...
Brain activity spans single-neuron, population, and network levels, and core questions in neural coding require moving between them. Yet current tools target a single paradigm and incompatible data fo...
Fungal infections are a significant contributor to global morbidity and mortality, among which Candida albicans infections, a major cause of systemic candidiasis, have a mortality rate of approximatel...
Multimodal Contrastive Learning (CL) has shown significant performance in aligning representations across various data modalities and improving downstream tasks, especially in healthcare. It works by ...
This dataset provides information for 3235 Brachiopoda specimens held within the Ocean Benthic Fauna collection (collection code: OBFc) in the Shirshov Institute of Oceanology (IORAS). Collected from ...
Much like humans benefit from guidance while learning, reinforcement learning algorithms may benefit from additional supervision beyond rewards. Leveraging additional information during training to le...
Few-shot 3D semantic segmentation aims to generate accurate semantic masks for query point clouds with only a few annotated support examples. Existing prototype-based methods typically construct compa...
In this work, we focus on extending SHARP, the popular photorealistic view synthesis method, for universal monocular rendering across a continuum of camera systems, from conventional perspective camer...
Applying steering vectors to large language models (LLMs) is an efficient and effective model alignment technique, but we lack an interpretable explanation for how it works-- specifically, what intern...
