Tectonic geomorphological evidence of late Quaternary segmented activity along the northern margin fault of Lajishan by ZHANG Lijun, YUAN Daoyang, LI Hongqiang, SU Qi, SU Ruihuan, CHEN Yanwen, WEN Yameng

“…Integrated with geological surveys and petroleum exploration profiles, these findings suggest that during the Late Quaternary, the North Lajishan fault has not only remained active but also propagated northeastward into the Xining–Minhe and Linxia basins, exhibiting thrust fault–fold deformation features.   Conclusion  (1) The tectonic geomorphological evolution of the North Lajishan Fault (including the eastern margin of Jishishan) is obviously different, and it tends to gradually become younger from west to east. …”

Dual-coding Contrastive Learning Based on the ConvNeXt and ViT Models for Morphological Classification of Galaxies in COSMOS-Web by Shiwei Zhu, Guanwen Fang, Chichun Zhou, Jie Song, Zesen Lin, Yao Dai, Xu Kong

“…In this study, we propose a self-supervised method called contrastive learning to upgrade the unsupervised machine learning (UML) part of the USmorph framework, aiming to improve the efficiency of feature extraction in this step. The upgraded UML method primarily consists of the following three aspects. (1) We employ a convolutional autoencoder to denoise galaxy images and adaptive polar coordinate transformation to enhance the model’s rotational invariance. (2) A pretrained dual-encoder convolutional neural network based on ConvNeXt and a vision transformer is used to encode the image data, while contrastive learning is then applied to reduce the dimension of the features. (3) We adopt a bagging-based clustering model to cluster galaxies with similar features into distinct groups. …”

A Space-Time Plume Algorithm to Represent and Compute Dynamic Places by Brent Dell, May Yuan
