Pulse Focus: Validation of the Focus Performance Score as a Behavioral Signal for Human Attentional State Modeling Toward Attention-Aware AI
Announce Type: new Abstract: Artificial intelligence systems that model and support human cognition require reliable measures of cognitive state. We present the Focus Performance Score (FPS) from the Pulse Focus mobile Stroop application and evaluate whether it measures attentional control during color-word conflict resolution. We conduct behavioral, neural, and formula validation analyses.
Focus apps are failing neurodivergent minds, new research finds
Focus apps are failing neurodivergent minds, new research finds Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor In today's attention economy, social media platforms, entertainment apps and news feeds all compete for our focus. Millions of people have turned to focus apps in response to help them be more productive while studying or working.
Language Models Learn Constructional Semantics, Not To Mention Syntax: Investigating LM Understanding of Paired-Focus Constructions
arXiv:2605.31586v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Grasping the semantics of rare constructions (form-meaning pairings) has been shown to be a challenging problem that has currently only been solved by the largest LLMs. It remains an open question if open-source models have robust constructional understanding, and if so, what learning dynamics underlie the acquisition of this knowledge. Focusing on a set of rare Paired-Focus constructions in English (e.g. "let alone", "much less"), we construct...

Microwave focusing with temporal interference for non-invasive deep brain stimulation
arXiv:2602.18477v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for neurological disorders but requires invasive surgery. This work presents a method for non-invasive DBS, based on microwave focusing of amplitude-modulated electric fields using an external antenna array of magnetic point dipoles. The proposed method combines iterative time reversal (iTR) and temporal interference (TI) optimization to jointly address electromagnetic field focusing...

Ultra-processed foods may be stealing your focus even if you eat healthy
Ultra-processed foods may be stealing your focus even if you eat healthy - Date: - June 9, 2026 - Source: - Monash University - Summary: - A study of more than 2,100 adults found that eating more ultra-processed foods was linked to poorer attention and slower mental processing, even among people with otherwise healthy diets. Researchers also found higher consumption was associated with increased dementia risk factors, raising concerns about the hidden cognitive costs of heavily processed...
Diffractive cascades for polychromatic hard X-ray focusing
arXiv:2605.15526v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffractive focusing of hard X-rays has traditionally required structures with large aspect ratios due to the limited interaction of most materials with X-rays. This has increased the complexity of fabricating diffractive X- ray lenses, restricting their widespread deployment.
