Verification of a resetting protocol for an uncontrolled superconducting qubit by Ming Gong, Feihu Xu, Zheng-Da Li, Zizhu Wang, Yu-Zhe Zhang, Yulin Wu, Shaowei Li, Youwei Zhao, Shiyu Wang, Chen Zha, Hui Deng, Zhiguang Yan, Hao Rong, Futian Liang, Jin Lin, Yu Xu, Cheng Guo, Lihua Sun, Juno Clark, Cheng-Zhi Peng, Yu-Ao Chen, Xiaobo Zhu, Jian-Wei Pan

“…We experimentally verify the simplest non-trivial case of a quantum resetting protocol, known as the $${{\mathcal{W}}}_{4}$$ W 4 protocol, with five superconducting qubits, testing it with different types of free evolutions and target–probe interactions. After projection, we obtained a reset state fidelity as high as 0.951, and the process fidelity was found to be 0.792. …”

On the use of clustering workflows for automated microstructure segmentation of analytical STEM datasets by Zhiquan Kho, Andy Bridger, Keith Butler, Ercin C. Duran, Mohsen Danaie, Alexander S. Eggeman

“…It was found that the cluster output of a variational autoencoder (VAE) performed better compared to a more conventional latent transformation via Uniform Manifold Approximation & Projection (UMAP) on 4D-STEM data alone. However, the UMAP workflow applied to merged 4D-STEM and STEM-energy dispersive x-ray (STEM-EDX) data produced the best cluster output overall, indicating that the correlated information provides beneficial constraints to the latent space. …”

Impacts of Intensified Agriculture Developments on Marsh Wetlands by Zhaoqing Luan, Demin Zhou

“…Their ecological qualities have been declining in response to the increasing threats to the remaining wetland habitats. Irrigation projects play a key role in such threats. Therefore, the sustainability of the natural wetland ecosystems is being threatened by increased regional agricultural development which reduced the number of wetland ecotypes and damaged the ecological quality.…”

Protecting fisheries resources and marine ecosystem from climate change: Solutions and legal constraints by Indriyani Rachma, Kumar Singh Manish, Ngoc Trang Vu Thi

“…Warming, acidification and deoxygenation of the ocean are already affecting the productivity and stability of marine ecosystems. It is projected also that climate change will force the fish stocks that cross through two or more exclusive economic zones to shift significantly from their historical habitats and migration that may lead to international conflict on the transboundary fish stocks. …”
