Southern Right Whales are a species of large baleen whale belonging to the genus Eubalaena, with rotund black bodies and distinctive callosities on their heads. They number around 7,500 individuals spread throughout the southern part of the Southern Hemisphere, and were historically known as the "right whales" for whalers because they float when killed and often swim near shore, making them the "right" whales to hunt.

Presentation given by Dr. Art Samel of Bowling Green State University on Sept. 9th, 2009 for Live Earth Talk (http://liveearthtalk.wikispaces.com). Presenter has given premission for teachers to used the slides in their classrooms. The information should not be used under any other circumstance.
Spectroscopy
The document discusses spectroscopy techniques used in astronomy to analyze the composition of stars and other astronomical objects. Spectrometers are used to measure the chemical composition and properties of objects by analyzing their spectral lines. Spectroscopy can be classified as atomic or molecular and uses absorption, emission, or scattering of light at specific wavelengths to identify elements and gases present. Continuous spectra represent dense gases or liquids while emission line spectra indicate a low density hot gas and absorption line spectra show dark lines where a cool gas absorbs wavelengths from a continuous spectrum.

1) Nitrogen fertilization of Pacific Northwest forests can increase carbon sequestration in both forest biomass and soil over a 40-year period. The effects on substitution of wood for other construction materials also reduces atmospheric carbon dioxide.
2) If all commercial forest land in the Pacific Northwest was fertilized, it could sequester an additional 0.167 gigatons of carbon in soil and 0.786 gigatons in forest biomass over 40 years. Currently, fertilization only occurs on around 25,000 hectares per year.
3) Over the long term, harvesting and using forest products displaces more carbon intensive materials, providing the largest impact on atmospheric carbon dioxide levels for both fertilized

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/temporal-event-neural-networks-a-more-efficient-alternative-to-the-transformer-a-presentation-from-brainchip/
Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Direct losses from downtime in 1 minute = $5-$10 thousand dollars. Reputation is priceless.
As part of the talk, we will consider the architectural strategies necessary for the development of highly loaded fintech solutions. We will focus on using queues and streaming to efficiently work and manage large amounts of data in real-time and to minimize latency.
We will focus special attention on the architectural patterns used in the design of the fintech system, microservices and event-driven architecture, which ensure scalability, fault tolerance, and consistency of the entire system.

Southern Right Whales
- 1. Southern Right Whales Thomas Cooper The Walker School
- 2. Right whales are the species of large baleen whales belonging to the genus Eubalaena.
- 3. Their rotund bodies are mostly black, with distinctive callosities (roughened patches of skin) on their heads.
- 4. They are called quot;right whalesquot; because whalers thought the whales were the quot;rightquot; ones to hunt, as they float when killed and often swim within sight of the shore.
- 5. 7,500 Southern Right Whales are spread throughout the southern part of the Southern Hemisphere.
