For the first time and with unprecedented accuracy, a team of researchers from the University of Basel has observed unique energy flow mechanisms in a semiconductor material following excitation by extremely short laser pulses. Gaining a better understanding of these energy flow is vital for improving the efficiency of electronic devices and computer chips.
Researchers publish first ever structural engineering manual for bamboo, a significant milestone in realising the benefits of bamboo and widening its adoption.
SM-GNN prunes multi-view GNNs to pure propagation, cutting training time while outperforming prior MKGC accuracies on two multilingual datasets via joint KGC and alignment loops.
Research team cuts shadow-tomography sample cost to ε^(−3) by seeding FTRL with a rough state guess ϱ, halving measurements when ϱ sits within trace distance Θ(ε) of the true ρ.
PyABV injects high-performance assertion engines into PyRTL, doubling verification coverage on complex HADM designs while sustaining RTL simulation speed for both academia and industry.
MEGI unifies IS, ICE, transposon and phage annotations into the first comprehensive mobile-element dataset, boosting Centroid & SIGI-HMM GI recall by 20% and accuracy by 3%/4% across standard genomes.
Recent survey delivers the first systematic map of LLM tool-learning, dissecting why tools supercharge models and how four-stage workflows (plan→select→call→respond) perform, while cataloging benchmarks and open challenges to jump-start newcomers.
