Higher-order Dirac semimetal in a photonic crystal by Wang, Zihao, Liu, Dongjue, Teo, Hau Tian, Wang, Qiang, Xue, Haoran, Zhang, Baile

“…Numerical results on the band structure show that the designed three-dimensional photonic crystal is able to host two fourfold Dirac points, which are connected in the momentum-space projections via higher-order hinge states localized at the hinge. The higher-order topology can be characterized by the topological invariant χ(6) at different values of k_z . …”

Extremely versatile deformability beyond materiality : a new material platform through simple cutting for rugged batteries by Kim, Kee-Bum, Lee, Young-Joo, Costa, Avelino, Lee, Yu-Ki, Jang, Tae-Sik, Lee, Myoung-Gyu, Joo, Young-Chang, Oh, Kyu Hwan, Song, Juha, Choi, In-Suk

“…In particular, an auxetic cut flexible substrate accommodates various complex deformations and adaptive conformations through the hinge joints because the external force is highly localized in the hinges while the segmented motifs remain almost undeformed. …”

Cross-Modal Deep Variational Hashing by Liong, Venice Erin, Lu, Jiwen, Zhou, Jie, Tan, Yap Peng

“…Unlike most existing cross-modal hashing methods which learn a single pair of projections to map each example into a binary vector, we design a deep fusion neural network to learn non-linear transformations from image-text input pairs, such that a unified binary code is achieved in a discrete and discriminative manner using a classification-based hinge-loss criterion. We then design modality-specific neural networks in a probabilistic manner such that we model a latent variable to be close as possible from the inferred binary codes, at the same time approximated by a posterior distribution regularized by a known prior, which is suitable for out-of-sample extension. …”
