BMPCQA: Bioinspired Metaverse Point Cloud Quality Assessment Based on Large Multimodal Models

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a bioinspired metaverse point cloud quality assessment metric, which simulates the human visual evaluation process to perform the point cloud quality assessment task. It first extracts rendering projection video features, normal image features, and point cloud patch features, which are then fed into a large multimodal model to ...

Sider's stage theory and expectancy prior to personal fission [PDF]

, 2008
According to Sider’s stage theory a subject about to undergo personal fission should expect to experience each outcome simultaneously as distinct persons. How is the subject to make sense of this ? I argue that their most paradigmatically self-interested

VAE+DDPG: An Attention‐Enhanced Variational Autoencoder for Deep Reinforcement Learning‐Based Autonomous Navigation in Low‐Light Environments

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Variational Autoencoder+Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient addresses low‐light failures of infrared depth sensing for indoor robot navigation. Stage 1 pretrains an attention‐enhanced Variational Autoencoder (Convolutional Block Attention Module+Feature Pyramid Network) to map dark depth frames to a well‐lit reconstruction, yielding a 128‐D latent code ...

Adaptive Control of Run‐and‐Tumble Escape in Pursuit‐Evasion Dynamics of Intelligent Active Particles

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The pursuit‐evasion game is studied for two adversarial active agents, modeled as deterministic self‐steering pursuer and stochastic, cognitive evader. For a successful evasion strategy, the motile target has to exploit all available pursuer information, e.g., by tuning the tumbling frequency with the pursuer distance.

Synthesis of Conjugated Linear and Cyclic Polyynes by Selective Alkyne Metathesis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The formation of polyynes with an odd number of conjugated triple bonds is challenging, particularly for complex architectures since most established methods rely on irreversible C–C bond‐forming reactions. To address this, we have developed the synthesis of triynes via alkyne metathesis.

The Role of Chemistry Across Disciplines From Humanities to Life Sciences in Understanding Complexity and Emergence

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study explores the origins of life by linking prebiotic chemistry, the emergence of information‐carrying molecules such as RNA and proteins, and philosophical questions about consciousness. The study emphasizes the role of molecular evolution in the Central Dogma and provides insights into the chemical origins of biology and the basis of life's ...

Betting on the Outcomes of Measurements: A Bayesian Theory of Quantum Probability

, 2002
We develop a systematic approach to quantum probability as a theory of rational betting in quantum gambles. In these games of chance the agent is betting in advance on the outcomes of several (finitely many) incompatible measurements.
