Laboratory Experiments of Model-based Reinforcement Learning for Adaptive Optics Control
(2024)arXivDirect imaging of Earth-like exoplanets is one of the most prominent scientific drivers of the next generation of ground-based telescopes. Typically, Earth-like exoplanets are located at small angular separations from their host stars, making their detection difficult. Consequently, the adaptive optics (AO) system's control algorithm must be carefully designed to distinguish the exoplanet from the residual light produced by the host ...Working Paper -
Machine learning for anomaly detection in particle physics
(2024)Reviews in PhysicsThe detection of out-of-distribution data points is a common task in particle physics. It is used for monitoring complex particle detectors or for identifying rare and unexpected events that may be indicative of new phenomena or physics beyond the Standard Model. Recent advances in Machine Learning for anomaly detection have encouraged the utilization of such techniques on particle physics problems. This review article provides an overview ...Review Article -
Recent Developments in Metallic Degradable Micromotors for Biomedical and Environmental Remediation Applications
(2024)Nano-Micro LettersSynthetic micromotor has gained substantial attention in biomedicine and environmental remediation. Metal-based degradable micromotor composed of magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), and iron (Fe) have promise due to their nontoxic fuel-free propulsion, favorable biocompatibility, and safe excretion of degradation products Recent advances in degradable metallic micromotor have shown their fast movement in complex biological media, efficient cargo ...Review Article -
Tumor targeted and GSH stimuli-response α‑lactalbumin nanotubes co-delivering doxorubicin and siRNA for cancer therapy
(2024)Journal of Future Foodsα-Lactalbumin (α-lac), a natural food-sourced protein, exhibits high biocompatibility as delivery systems for small bioactive molecules or RNA. However, their potential clinical application as a delivery system is greatly limited due to the lack of targeting to desired tissues, such as tumors. Here, a delivery system/nanocarrier of nanotube (NT) was fabricated by the self-assembly of peptides hydrolyzed from α-lac. Among the loading of ...Journal Article -
Bicycle as a traffic mode
(2024)Journal of Cycling and Micromobility ResearchCities allocate dedicated road space to bicycles in favor of active-mode road users. For urban environments with a mass bicycle volume, bicycle traffic congestion is likely to occur. Hence, a thorough understanding of bicycle traffic flow is necessary for the assessment of cycling infrastructure and the development of traffic management strategies considering cycling efficiency. This study aims to investigate bicycle flow characteristics ...Journal Article -
Comparative study on route choice models for cyclists
(2024)Journal of Cycling and Micromobility ResearchThis paper presents a comparison of different route choice models for cyclists. The data includes approx. 3,700 cycling trajectories. The network is derived based on the Open-Street-Map that contains street-level attribute information. We estimate two path-based and one link-based model. We present descriptive statistics, model results, resulting indicators, and compare different validation approaches. The results reveal important differences ...Journal Article -
Density and strength variations in the mantle lithosphere affect the distribution of intraplate earthquakes
(2024)Communications Earth & EnvironmentThe distribution of earthquakes in stable intracontinental tectonic settings is typically far more diffuse than along plate boundaries and the causative mechanisms underlying some recognizable clustering are not understood. Here we show that seismicity in intraplate western and central Europe is largely limited to regions that exhibit a low-density layer in the uppermost lithospheric mantle and preferentially clustered above lateral ...Journal Article -
Phase-separated droplets swim to their dissolution
(2024)Nature CommunicationsBiological macromolecules can condense into liquid domains. In cells, these condensates form membraneless organelles that can organize chemical reactions. However, little is known about the physical consequences of chemical activity in and around condensates. Working with model bovine serum albumin (BSA) condensates, we show that droplets swim along chemical gradients. Active BSA droplets loaded with urease swim toward each other. Passive ...Journal Article -
Decentralized project delivery on the crypto commons: Conceptualization, governance mechanisms, and future research directions
(2024)Project Leadership and SocietyThis paper presents a first conceptualization for decentralized project delivery through the combination of blockchain technology and common pool resource governance theory, also known as the ”crypto commons”. While previous literature on project delivery models identifies the use of decentralized governance, there is not yet a holistic conceptualization nor a specific overview of governance applications that can be applied. To develop ...Journal Article
