Full-reference image quality metrics (FR-IQMs) aim to measure the visual differences between a pair of reference and distorted images, with the goal of accurately predicting human judgments. However, existing FR-IQMs, including traditional ones like PSNR and SSIM and even perceptual ones such as HDR-VDP, LPIPS, and DIS...

Spectral properties of Jacobi operators $J$ are intimately related to an asymptotic behavior of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials $P_{n}(z)$ as $n\to\infty$. We study the case where the off-diagonal coefficients $a_{n}$ and, eventually, diagonal coefficients $ b_{n}$ of $J$ tend to infinity in such a way that th...

In order to explore the spectrum of hidden-charm scalar and tensor resonances, we study meson-meson scattering with $J^{PC}=0^{++}, 2^{++}$ in the charmonium energy region using lattice QCD. Employing a light-quark mass corresponding to $m_\pi \approx 391$ MeV, we determine coupled-channel scattering amplitudes up to a...

Let $G$ and $H$ be graphs and let $f \colon V(G)\rightarrow V(H)$ be a function. The Sierpi\'{n}ski product of $G$ and $H$ with respect to $f$, denoted by $G \otimes _f H$, is defined as the graph on the vertex set $V(G)\times V(H)$, consisting of $|V(G)|$ copies of $H$; for every edge $gg'$ of $G$ there is an edge bet...

In the rapidly evolving digital era, the analysis of document layouts plays a pivotal role in automated information extraction and interpretation. In our work, we have trained MViTv2 transformer model architecture with cascaded mask R-CNN on BaDLAD dataset to extract text box, paragraphs, images and tables from a docum...

We investigate the CP violation in the decay process $\bar B_{s} \rightarrow \phi(\rho,\omega) P \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}P$ by considering the interference effects of $\phi\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$, $\rho\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ and $\omega\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ within the framework of perturbative QCD method (P refers to ...

Quantum mechanics, superfluids, and capillary fluids are closely related: it is thermodynamics that links them. In this paper, the Liu procedure is used to analyze the thermodynamic requirements. A comparison with the traditional method of divergence separation highlights the role of spacetime. It is shown that perfect...

Quantum computing has gained attention in recent years due to the significant progress in quantum computing technology. Today many companies like IBM, Google and Microsoft have developed quantum computers and simulators for research and commercial use. The development of quantum techniques and algorithms is essential t...

The design and optimization of a large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computer architecture relies extensively on numerical simulations to assess the performance of each component of the architecture. The simulation of fault-tolerant gadgets, which are typically implemented by Clifford circuits, is done by sampling circu...

Stance classification, the task of predicting the viewpoint of an author on a subject of interest, has long been a focal point of research in domains ranging from social science to machine learning. Current stance detection methods rely predominantly on manual annotation of sentences, followed by training a supervised ...

Collisions are an important dissipation mechanism in plasmas. In one-dimensional modelling, a commonly used collision operator is the Lenard-Bernstein operator, or its modified energy- and momentum-conserving counterpart. When approximating such operators numerically, it is important to respect their structure in order...

Gamma-Ray Bursts are the most luminous events in the Universe, and are excellent laboratories to study extreme physical phenomena in the cosmos. Despite a long trajectory of progress in understanding these highly energetic events, there are still many observed features that are yet to be fully explained. Observations o...
