Angle-Spliced SMF to Hollow Core Fiber Connection with Optimized Back-Reflect…

We study and demonstrate angle-cleaved fusion splicing between single mode fiber (SMF) and nested anti-resonant node-less fiber (NANF). First, we analyze the trade-off between the connection loss a…

A Compact Fluorescent Probe for Real-Time Thermal Monitoring of Chips

In this paper, a compact fluorescent probe based on fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) technique is proposed for real-time thermal monitoring of chips, the sensing unit of which is based on a self-…

Primal-Dual First-Order Methods for Affinely Constrained Multi-block Saddle P…

We consider the convex-concave saddle point problem , where the decision variables and/or are subject to certain multi-block structure and affine coupling constraints, and possesses certain separa…

Object Detection in Aerial Images : A Large-Scale Benchmark and Challenges

In he past decade, object detection has achieved significant progress in natural images but not in aerial images, due to the massive variations in the scale and orientation of objects caused by the…

A Novel Estimation Method in Generalized Single Index Models

The single index and generalized single index models have been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for studying nonlinear interaction effects of variables in the low-dimensional case. In this articl…

6G Wireless Communications : From Far-Field Beam Steering to Near-Field Beam …

6G networks will be required to support higher data rates, improved energy efficiency, lower latency, and more diverse users compared with 5G systems. To meet these requirements, electrically extre…

Background-Click Supervision for Temporal Action Localization

Weakly supervised temporal action localization aims at learning the instance-level action pattern from the video-level labels, where a significant challenge is action-context confusion. To overcome…

Optical Amplification-Free High Baudrate Links for Intra-Data Center Communic…

The enormous traffic growth sets a stringent requirement to upgrade short-reach optical links to 1.6 TbE capacity in an economically viable way. The power consumption and latency in these links sho…

Digital Subcarrier Multiplexing: Enabling Software-Configurable Optical Networks

The various topologies, traffic patterns and cost targets of optical networks have prevented the deployment of end-to-end solutions across multi-domains, and the optimization of the network as a wh…
