Generative Inverse Design of Metamaterials with Functional Responses by Interpretable Learning
This work introduces random‐forest‐based interpretable generative inverse design (RIGID), a new single‐shot inverse design method for metamaterials using interpretable machine learning and Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling. Once trained on a small dataset, RIGID can estimate the likelihood of designs achieving target behaviors (e.g., wave‐based ...

A new target: Bacterial sialic acid uptake inhibition is a promising strategy for the development of antibacterial drugs. In this study, we present the design, synthesis and evaluation of sialic acid 4‐piperidine and piperazine derivatives a novel compound class, which bind the SiaT from Proteus mirabilis and target a different portion of the binding ...

Tetra‐ortho‐Azobenzenes (TOABs) in broad daylight: in recent years, TOAB photoswitches became indispensable tools for all‐visible‐light manipulation of chemistry, biology and materials. This review explores their unique photochemical properties, design and synthetic approaches, offering support in choosing a TOAB for a given application.

Position: AI agents should be regulated based on autonomous action sequences [PDF]
This position paper argues that AI agents should be regulated based on the sequence of actions they autonomously take. AI agents with long-term planning and strategic capabilities can pose significant risks of human extinction and irreversible global catastrophes.

Extreme fire severity interacts with seed traits to moderate post‐fire species assemblages
Abstract Premise Climate change is globally pushing fire regimes to new extremes, with unprecedented large‐scale severe fires. Persistent soil seed banks are a key mechanism for plant species recovery after fires, but extreme fire severity may generate soil temperatures beyond thresholds seeds are adapted to.
