Temporally continuous snow depth estimates are vital for understanding changing snow patterns and impacts on permafrost in the Arctic. We train a random forest machine learning model to predict snow depth from variability in ground surface temperature. To our knowledge, this is the first time that small ground surface temperature sensors have been used to estimate snow depth. The model performs well at sites where the model was trained and at pan-arctic evaluation sites (RMSE <= 0.15 m). Small temperature sensors are cheap and easy-to-deploy, so this technique enables spatially distributed and temporally continuous snowpack monitoring to an extent previously infeasible. The model is flexible and can be applied to datasets retroactively to retrieve snow depth estimates at additional sites. This code package includes a *.joblib file of the trained random forest model and a *.ipynb file showing how to clean input data, train the random forest model, and apply the model.
We propose TransPlatformer for translating toxicogenomics from one platform to another. Transcriptomic profiling has evolved through multiple generations of technology, from microarrays (e.g., Affymetrix, CodeLink) to more recent high-throughput sequencing and targeted panels such as S1500+. Microarrays, which dominated gene expression studies in the early 2000s, provided affordable and high-throughput transcript quantification but suffered from cross-hybridization issues and limited dynamic range . RNA-Seq, introduced in the late 2000s, revolutionized transcriptomics by enabling unbiased and comprehensive gene expression analysis, albeit at higher costs and computational demands . Despite advances, many studies rely on historical microarray data, necessitating the translation of legacy data into modern platforms to ensure continuity and comparability. This translation is complicated by factors such as platform-specific probe design, differences in transcript coverage, and batch effects . Existing methods for cross-platform mapping include statistical normalization, machine learning models, and biological anchoring approaches. The ability to translate transcriptomic data between platforms has broad implications, including enhanced meta-analyses, improved toxicological modeling, and better integration of historical datasets with contemporary research. TransPlatformer seeks to contribute to this effort by evaluating translation methodologies and proposing novel strategies to improve cross-platform gene expression harmonization. In this repository there are code examples for TransPlatformer implementation

This code is used to train and test machine learning models and generate results and plots presented in 2501.08524 [astro-ph.IM]. The code is written in python. The goal of this work is to train ML models trained on simulated images of strong gravitational lenses. The trained model can then quickly infer properties of the lensed objects with uncertainty quantification.
We propose a novel machine learning model spatio-temporal Fourier transformer (StFT) to emulate long-term dynamics of multi-scale and multi-physics systems. Our method StFT overcomes the limitations of rapid error accumulation, particularly in long-term forecasting of systems characterized by complex and coupled dynamics. StFT achieves outstanding accuracy and computational efficiency by effectively capturing multi-scale interactions, and quantify the uncertainties inherent in the predictions. Our model leverages a structured hierarchy of StFT blocks, and explicitly captures dynamics across both macro- and micro- spatial scales. Evaluations conducted on three benchmark datasets (plasma, fluid, and atmospheric dynamics) demonstrate the advantages of our approach over state-of-the-art ML methods.

EGAN-3F (Equivariant Graph Attention Network - 3D Conformers & Feature Fusion) presents an innovative approach for predicting binding affinity between small molecules and protein targets, a fundamental task in drug discovery. Traditional structure-based methods often depend on protein-ligand complex structures obtained from crystallography or molecular docking. In contrast, ligand-only machine learning models using 1D or 2D representations such as SMILES have been developed to predict binding affinity without structural information about the target; however, their accuracy is often limited due to the lack of 3D ligand information. EGAN-3F addresses this limitation by integrating spatially aware graph learning with traditional descriptor-based features. We systematically investigate how combining 2D and 3D molecular representations enhances binding affinity prediction from SMILES strings. This approach underscores the importance of modeling conformational diversity and incorporating chemically meaningful descriptors to improve predictive accuracy. The key innovation of EGAN-3F lies in its ability to achieve robust ligand-based binding affinity predictions without requiring protein-ligand complex structures, effectively bridging the gap between purely structural and ligand-only modeling paradigms.

This study presents significant advancements in computational cannula microscopy for live imaging of cellular dynamics in poplar wood tissues. Leveraging machine-learning models such as pix2pix for image reconstruction, we achieved high-resolution imaging with a field of view of 55µm using a 50µm-core diameter probe. Our method allows for real-time image reconstruction at 0.29 s per frame with a mean absolute error of 0.07. We successfully captured cellular-level dynamics in vivo , demonstrating morphological changes at resolutions as small as 3µm. We implemented two types of probabilistic neural network models to quantify confidence levels in the reconstructed images. This approach facilitates context-aware, human-in-the-loop analysis, which is crucial for in vivo imaging where ground-truth data is unavailable. Using this approach we demonstrated deep in vivo computational imaging of living plant tissue with high confidence (disagreement score ⪅0.2). This work addresses the challenges of imaging live plant tissues, offering a practical and minimally invasive tool for plant biologists.
Field emission is one of the most important issues that limits the performance of the superconducting radio frequency (SRF) systems and leads to SRF cavity trips at the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility at Jefferson Lab. Studies have confirmed that particulates are the dominant source of field emitters and the particulates can be transported into a cavity from other parts of the accelerator. To monitor the transportation of the particulates, a prototype of a novel, non-invasive laser particulate counter (LPC) has been developed and tested. Experiments have been done to validate the capability of the LPC. We are developing autonomous event detection system to continuously monitor the readout from the LPC and to recognize real events generated by particulates from noises using machine learning model. In this report, we will present how the data are prepared and how the model is trained. We will also discuss the performance of the model.
We introduce **DeepBench**, a python library that generates simple simulated image data from first principles, such as basic geometric shapes and astronomical objects. These data are highly valuable for developing (calibration, testing, and benchmarking) statistical and machine learning models because they make it possible to connect the final data product to physically interpretable inputs. This software includes tools to curate and store the datasets to maximize reproducibility.
The measurements performed by particle physics experiments must account for the imperfect response of the detectors used to observe the interactions. One approach, unfolding, statistically adjusts the experimental data for detector effects. Recently, generative machine learning models have shown promise for performing unbinned unfolding in a high number of dimensions. However, all current generative approaches are limited to unfolding a fixed set of observables, making them unable to perform full-event unfolding in the variable dimensional environment of collider data. A novel modification to the variational latent diffusion model (VLD) approach to generative unfolding is presented, which allows for unfolding of high- and variable-dimensional feature spaces. The performance of this method is evaluated in the context of semi-leptonic t\bar{t} t t ‾ production at the Large Hadron Collider.
