Quantum lock-in amplification raises the detection sensitivity of magnetic fields to unprecedented level by phase-locked pumping the Zeeman levels of a single trapped atom. To further enhance this sensitivity, quadrature squeezing could be introduced to overcome the quantum uncertainty limit. |
In this paper we initiate the study of the heterogeneous capacitated $k$-center problem: given a metric space $X = (F \cup C, d)$, and a collection of capacities. The goal is to open each capacity at a unique facility location in $F$, and also to assign clients to facilities so that the number of clients assigned to a... |

Superlenses made of plasmonic materials and metamaterials have been exploited to image features of sub-diffractional scale. However, their intrinsic losses impose a serious restriction on the imaging resolution, which is a long-standing problem that has hindered wide-spread applications of superlenses. |
The thermodynamic properties of Schwarzschild-anti-de Sitter black holes confined within finite isothermal cavities are examined. In contrast to the Schwarzschild case, the infinite cavity limit may be taken which, if suitably stated, remains double valued. |

Machine learning (ML) models are increasingly used for personnel assessment and selection (e.g., resume screeners, automatically scored interviews). However, concerns have been raised throughout society that ML assessments may be biased and perpetuate or exacerbate inequality. |
Multi-scale learning frameworks have been regarded as a capable class of models to boost semantic segmentation. The problem nevertheless is not trivial especially for the real-world deployments, which often demand high efficiency in inference latency. |
Physarum polycephalum is a large single amoeba cell, which in its plasmodial phase,forages and connects nearby food sources with protoplasmic tubes. The organism forages for food by growing these tubes towards detected food stuffs, this foraging behaviour is governed by simple rules of photoavoidance and chemotaxis. |
