Quantifying Truthfulness: A Probabilistic Framework for Atomic Claim-Based Misinformation Detection by Fahim Sufi, Musleh Alsulami

“…This paper addresses this gap by proposing a novel probabilistic framework that decomposes complex assertions into semantically atomic claims and computes their veracity through a structured evaluation of source credibility and evidence frequency. Each atomic unit is matched against a curated corpus of 11,928 cyber-related news entries using a binary alignment function, and its truthfulness is quantified via a composite score integrating both source reliability and support density. …”

Near-source wastewater surveillance of SARS-CoV-2, norovirus, influenza virus and RSV across five different sites in the UK. by Jay C Bullen, Mina Mohaghegh, Fatima Tahir, Charlotte Hammer, Jacob Sims, Frederico Myers, Lucas Eisinger, Ali Reza Kasmati, Claire F Trant

“…The key findings are (1) near-source wastewater detections were linked to local events (staff sickness, enhanced cleaning, changing populations); (2) wastewater detections decreased in the order norovirus GII > norovirus GI > SARS-CoV-2 ≈ influenza A ≈ RSV A > influenza B ≈ RSV B; (3) correlation between near-source wastewater data and national surveillance data increases as a function of catchment size and viral prevalence (examples include the SARS-CoV-2 BA.4/BA.5 variant peak at a museum and wastewater tracking the winter norovirus season); (4) strong weekday periodicity in near-source wastewater SARS-CoV-2 detections, with the correlation against COVID-19 case numbers increasing when modelling variable lag times between faecal shedding onset and clinical diagnosis (R2 = 0.45 increases to 0.84-0.86); (5) a log-linear relationship between the frequency of wastewater SARS-CoV-2 detection and log(catchment size⋅viral prevalence) (R2 = 0.6914-0.9066). …”

All-optical nonlinear activation function based on stimulated Brillouin scattering by Slinkov Grigorii, Becker Steven, Englund Dirk, Stiller Birgit

“…However, their development towards high-performing computing alternatives is hindered by one of the optical neural networks’ key components: the activation function. Most of the reported activation functions rely on opto-electronic conversion, sacrificing the unique advantages of photonics, such as resource-efficient coherent and frequency-multiplexed information encoding. …”
