Beyond the Canonical Protocol: Quantum Encrypted Cloning from Secret-Sharing Access Structures
Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantum encrypted cloning shows that an unknown quantum state can be distributed into multiple encrypted copies without contradicting the no-cloning theorem: each copy is unusable on its own, but can be redeemed together with a suitable quantum key. Recent work has related canonical encrypted-cloning protocols to particular forms of quantum secret sharing.
Acoustic and perceptual differences between standard and accented speech and their voice clones
arXiv:2604.01562v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Voice cloning is often evaluated in terms of overall quality, but less is known about accent preservation and its perceptual consequences. We compare standard and heavily accented Mandarin speech and their voice clones using a combined computational and perceptual design. Embedding-based analyses showed larger original-clone distances for accented speakers in several speaker-discriminative embedding spaces, but this difference disappeared...
CRISPRi-assisted E. coli strains increase success rate of burdensome construct cloning
Genetic constructs meant for metabolic engineering in nonmodel microbes often use similar genetic parts to those familiar to E. coli work. The typical workflow is to clone these parts into plasmids in E. coli before they are transferred to the nonmodel host or its genome. In many cases, the metabolic burden of these constructs is stronger in the E. coli cloning phase of the workflow than in the eventual host, possibly resulting in mutation or other failure during cloning.
Acoustic Cloning
Announce Type: new Abstract: Cloning refers to producing identical copies of existing objects. Here, we experimentally show how to clone acoustic scattering objects.
KIT's Submission to Cross-Lingual Voice Cloning in IWSLT 2026
Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-lingual voice cloning aims to generate speech in a target language while preserving speaker identity from a source-language reference. This task is central to speech translation and is the focus of the IWSLT 2026 Cross-Lingual Voice Cloning track. A key challenge is maintaining intelligibility and naturalness in the presence of accent variation and domain-specific vocabulary.
Unbiased identification of responding T cell clones from longitudinal repertoire sequencing with CloneSearch
T cells activate and expand upon interaction with cognate antigen, derived from pathogens or mutated proteins. T cell clones can be identified by their T cell receptor (TCR) which can act as a unique barcode to track their expansion. Longitudinal TCR sequencing can be used to track T cell responses to a large array of stimuli.
Single cell transforms into cannibalistic 'supergiant,' swallowing its clones whole
Single cell transforms into cannibalistic 'supergiant,' swallowing its clones whole Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) have discovered a microscopic organism that can transform into a cannibalistic "supergiant" that drastically changes size, shape, and behavior, and abandons filter-feeding to hunt and consume their genetically identical relatives. The work, published on the cover of the Proceedings of the National...
When Does Predictive Inverse Dynamics Outperform Behavior Cloning?
arXiv:2601.21718v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Behavior cloning (BC) is a practical offline imitation learning method, but it often fails when expert demonstrations are limited. Recent works have introduced a class of architectures named predictive inverse dynamics models (PIDM) that combine a future state predictor with an inverse dynamics model. While PIDM often outperforms BC, the reasons behind its benefits remain unclear.
CLONE: A 3DGS-Based Closed-Loop Differentiable Optimization Framework for Single-Image Normal Estimation
arXiv:2508.05950v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose CLONE, a 3DGS-based Closed-Loop differentiable Optimization framework for single-image Normal Estimation. The core idea is to construct an "image-geometry-image" consistency loop that unifies and jointly constrains the limitations of both paradigms: the reliance on explicit supervision without cross-domain geometric constraints in discriminative methods, and the absence of stable differentiable optimization pathways in generative...
