Structured pruning is a widely used technique for reducing the size of pre-trained language models (PLMs), but current methods often overlook the potential of compressing the hidden dimension (d) in PLMs, a dimension critical to model size and efficiency. This paper introduces a novel structured pruning approach, Struc...

Seeing-eye robots are very useful tools for guiding visually impaired people, potentially producing a huge societal impact given the low availability and high cost of real guide dogs. Although a few seeing-eye robot systems have already been demonstrated, none considered external tugs from humans, which frequently occu...

This study examines, in the framework of variational regularization methods, a multi-penalty regularization approach which builds upon the Uniform PENalty (UPEN) method, previously proposed by the authors for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) data processing. The paper introduces two iterative methods, UpenMM and GUpenM...

We describe the design and characterization of a versatile pulsed (5 ns, 10 Hz repetition rate) optical parametric oscillator and amplifier system capable of generating single longitudinal mode, narrow linewidth (0.01 cm$^{-1}$) radiation in the wavelength range of 680 - 870 nm and 1380 - 4650 nm. Using a combination o...

Coherent control over electron dynamics in atoms and molecules using high-intensity circularly-polarized laser pulses gives rise to current loops, resulting in the emission of magnetic fields. We propose and demonstrate with ab-initio calculations ``current-gating" schemes to generate direct or alternating-current magn...

We show that, simultaneous local scaling of coordinate and time keeping the velocity unaltered is a symmetry of an It\^o-process. Using this symmetry, any It\^o-process can be mapped to a universal additive Gaussian-noise form. We use this mapping to separate the canonical and micro-canonical part of stochastic dynamic...

Within the Bohr's correspondence principle, the quantum theory should reproduce the classical world when $\hbar\to 0$. In practice, the discrete energies come close to each other before passing to continuum, causing that highly excited states become inaccessible. However it is possible to identify signatures that the s...

We propose two novel approaches to address a critical problem of reach measurement across multiple media -- how to estimate the reach of an unobserved subset of buying groups (BGs) based on the observed reach of other subsets of BGs. Specifically, we propose a model-free approach and a model-based approach. The former ...
