HKUST team develops AI-powered tool for accurate prediction of coastal oceans’ health
Hong Kong University of Science and TechnologyPeer-Reviewed Publication
A research team from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), led by Professors Gan Jianping (Department of Ocean Science) and Professor Yang Can (Department of Mathematics), has developed a novel AI-powered tool named STIMP for diagnosing coastal ocean productivity and ecosystem health. STIMP introduces a novel paradigm that imputes missing data and then predicts Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations across large spatiotemporal scales. In tests across four representative global coastal regions, STIMP significantly outperformed existing geoscience tools, reducing the mean absolute error (MAE) for imputation by up to 81.39% and for prediction by 58.99%. Accurate Chl-a prediction aids in early detection of harmful algal blooms, ecosystem protection, and provides data-driven insights for evidence-based policy-making.

Emotions expressed in real-time barrage comments relate to purchasing intentions and imitative behavior
University of TsukubaPeer-Reviewed Publication
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have found that emotions expressed in real-time barrage comments on the Chinese video platform Bilibili are directly linked to viewer behavior. Their study shows that positive emotions strongly correlate with purchasing intentions and imitative actions, highlighting the potential for emotional contagion in online environments.

Ringing black hole confirms Einstein and Hawking’s predictions
Simons FoundationPeer-Reviewed Publication
New observations of a merger of two black holes confirm decades-old predictions by Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking and Roy Kerr. The findings emerged from analyses led by Flatiron Institute astrophysicists using the clearest measurements to date of a black hole merger taken by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO).

Exotic phase of matter realized on a quantum processor
Technical University of Munich (TUM)Peer-Reviewed Publication
Phases of matter are the basic states that matter can take - like water that can occur in a liquid or ice phase. Traditionally, these phases are defined under equilibrium conditions, where the system is stable over time. But nature allows for stranger possibilities: new phases that emerge only when a system is driven out of equilibrium. In a new study published in Nature, a research team shows that quantum computers offer an unparalleled way to explore those exotic states of matter.
