The imposition of boundary velocities in finite element models of port-Hamiltonian elastodynamics typically relies on Lagrange multipliers, yielding Differential-Algebraic Equations (DAEs). Alternatively, weak imposition methods that maintain an Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) structure often exhibit poor accuracy at Dirichlet...
As organisms navigate the environment to locate critical resources, their behavioral actions must be tightly coupled to their sensory inputs. Here, we introduce an information-theoretic framework that quantifies this coupling using transfer entropy, which measures information flow between sensory inputs and behavioral outputs....
LLMs are widely regarded as alien intelligences, systems whose cognitive operations are fundamentally unlike our own. Apparent similarities to human cognition are therefore often seen as the result of anthropomorphic projection. We argue that this framing is mistaken. LLMs clearly differ from humans in important respects, including...
Magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging methods are particularly attractive for chemical engineering applications, including the monitoring of chemical reactions, where a rapid assessment of spatial variations in chemical composition is required. Conventional approaches, such as chemical shift imaging, introduce an additional...
Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) has been advocated as a highly promising technology to provide near-perpetual operation to low-powered wireless devices in Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based wireless networks. In this paper, a SWIPT-enhanced cell-free massive MIMO network is proposed. In such a network, a large...
This paper develops data-driven conditions for certifying internal stability and induced-$\ell_2$ performance of discrete-time Lurye systems. The Lurye system is an interconnection of a nominal LTI system in feedback with a static, memoryless nonlinearity. The nonlinearity satisfies a known set of quadratic constraints on the inputs...
A hydrogen-based direct reduced iron-electric arc furnace system integrated with methanol synthesis (H2-DRI-EAF-MeOH) provides a feasible pathway toward zero-carbon steel production. However, the volatility and intermittency of renewable energy sources (RES) may lead to capacity oversizing, while conventional annualized-cost and...
We investigate lightweight raptor-species classification for real-time edge deployment in wind-turbine collision mitigation. Using DINOv2-L (304M parameters) as a teacher, we distilled three lightweight students (MobileNetV4, ViT-Small, and EfficientNet-B0). To reduce confusion between closely related species, we expanded the dataset...
Cell-free massive multiple input multiple output (CF-mMIMO) is an emerging technology for next-generation wireless systems, where dynamically adapting the set of active access points (APs) is crucial to balance quality of service (QoS) requirements and network energy consumption under highly time-varying and spatially non-uniform...
The spatial organization of cells and tissues provides important diagnostic cues in histopathology images. Although graph-based approaches can model these relationships, many rely on fixed or heuristic graph structures that may not accurately represent tissue connectivity. In this work, we propose $G_2^*$-Net, an optimized two-level...
Reliable joint-angle measurement outside laboratory environments is important for posture assessment and technique analysis in sports and rehabilitation. Yet, wearable IMU systems, despite being the most practical solution, remain constrained by drift, multisensor timing consistency, validation, and cost. This paper presents a...
The problem of finding the optimal compression rate for a given random variable has been traditionally studied under two main constraints: distortion and perception. The distortion constraint enforces the fidelity of our reconstruction with respect to the observed realization of the random variable, while the perception constraint...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), particularly quadcopters, present unique challenges for autonomous control due to their underactuated dynamics: only four available control inputs must govern six degrees of freedom. This paper investigates a physics-aware, end-to-end deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach that acts directly on...
Dynamic 3D Gaussian Splatting (GS) enables high quality real-time rendering for immersive media, but its large representation size and frame-wise redundancy create significant challenges for adaptive streaming. This paper presents SplatStream, a fine granular scalable Gaussian splatting framework for dynamic 3D scene delivery. The...
Secure energy efficiency (SEE) has emerged as a key performance metric for next-generation wireless networks, where energy sustainability and information security must be jointly guaranteed. This paper investigates secure uplink transmission in a full-duplex (FD) base station (BS) system equipped with movable antennas (MAs) and...
Despite the rising popularity of immersive audio, binaural music remains underexplored in music information retrieval (MIR), particularly regarding the task of music source separation (MSS). While existing stereo MSS models can process binaural audio, they often degrade the spatial quality of the separated stems and undermine listener...
Automatic analysis of multimodal speech has shown strong potential for computationally detecting and monitoring a wide range of neurological, psychiatric, and respiratory conditions. However, progress in this field is limited by existing publicly accessible datasets, which are often small in scale, focused on a single condition or...
This study identifies new depression biomarkers based on the dynamical properties of tract variables, which represent geometric features describing the configuration of the speech articulators. A key advantage of this approach lies in its ability to quantify aspects of the articulatory process that have not been previously explored in...
This paper explores the effectiveness of domain adaptation techniques when using convolutional neural network (CNN)-based and transformer-based feature representations for acoustic scene classification. Two well-known domain adaptation techniques, namely domain adversarial neural network (also called DANN) and conditional domain...
Voice activity detection (VAD) triggers downstream speech processing in always-on systems under strict memory, latency, and compute constraints. Recent compact models report strong accuracy but rely on components that are not widely supported: learnable filterbanks, recurrent layers, or non-causal post-processing. We propose kiloVAD,...
Many time-series forecasts depend not only on prior observations but also on actions specified during the forecast period. In intensive care units (ICUs), future vital signs and laboratory values are influenced by treatments such as vasopressors. However, models that predict the full future sequence all at once make little use of...
This paper studies leakage-aware beam selection for multi-target multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) sensing. We focus on ensuring that each hypothesized target remains detectable at its own delay-Doppler (DD) bin despite leakage from other targets. For this, we derive a visibility...
The integration horizon during the training plays a critical role in Physics-Enhanced Neural Ordinary Differential Equations. We draw conclusions about horizon extension in the training of Neural Ordinary Differential Equations based on classical nonlinear system identification of input-output models. In light of this insight, we...
Integrated electric-hydrogen infrastructures are becoming increasingly important with the growing deployment of electric vehicles (EVs) and hydrogen vehicles (HVs) in transport systems. However, the strong coupling between vehicle scheduling and multi-energy dispatch introduces significant operational challenges. This paper models an...
Ensuring measurement data quality is essential for reliable condition monitoring of industrial wind turbine drivetrains, where vibration measurements can be affected by sensor malfunctions, turbine shutdown conditions, and other non-diagnostic states. Such invalid measurements may compromise the reliability of subsequent monitoring...
