Rethinking Non-Negative Matrix Factorization with Implicit Neural Representations

This paper was accepted at the IEEE Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics (WASPAA) 2025 Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a powerful technique for analyzing regularly-sampled data, i.e., data that can be stored in a matrix. For audio, this has led to numerous applications using time-frequency (TF) representations like the Short-Time …

This simple magnetic trick could change quantum computing forever

Researchers have unveiled a new quantum material that could make quantum computers much more stable by using magnetism to protect delicate qubits from environmental disturbances. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on rare spin-orbit interactions, this method uses magnetic interactions—common in many materials—to create robust topological excitations. Combined with a new computational tool for finding such …
