Photonics-Assisted Wideband RF Source Localization Method Based on Synthetic …

Angle of arrival (AOA) is one key parameter for passive signal source localization. However, with the increase in RF systems' instantaneous bandwidth and working frequency, it is a great challenge …

Software-Defined Heterogeneous Quantum Key Distribution Chaining : An Enabler…

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is an essential branch of quantum communications that facilitates future-proof security. In the near future, large-scale quantum networks will inevitably encounter di…

Implied Volatility Changes and Corporate Bond Returns

Corporate bonds with large increases in implied volatility over the past month underperform those with large decreases in implied volatility by 0.6% per month. In contrast to existing studies that …

Learning 3D Human Shape and Pose From Dense Body Parts

Reconstructing 3D human shape and pose from monocular images is challenging despite the promising results achieved by the most recent learning-based methods. The commonly occurred misalignment come…

Photonic Generation of Multi-Band Phase-Coded Microwave Pulses by Polarizatio…

We report a photonic approach to generate multi-band phase-coded microwave pulses based on polarization manipulation of optical signals using a dual-polarization dual-parallel Mach-Zehnder modulato…

CDE-GAN : Cooperative Dual Evolution-Based Generative Adversarial Network

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been a popular deep generative model for real-world applications. Despite many recent efforts on GANs that have been contributed, mode collapse and insta…

Modulation-Noise-Free Continuously Tunable Single-Frequency CW Ti:Sapphire La…

We present a continuously tunable single-frequency continuous wave (CW) Ti:Sapphire (Ti:S) laser with modulation-free-locked intracavity lithium niobate (LiNbO 3 ) birefringent etalon (BE), which i…

Mining Interpretable AOG Representations From Convolutional Networks via Acti…

In this paper, we present a method to mine object-part patterns from conv-layers of a pre-trained convolutional neural network (CNN). The mined object-part patterns are organized by an And-Or graph…

The Calendar Effects of the Idiosyncratic Volatility Puzzle : A Tale of Two D…

The idiosyncratic volatility (IVOL) anomaly exhibits strong calendar effects. The negative relation between IVOL and the next-month return obtains mainly in the third week of the month. The IVOL-re…
