The critical slowing down in training diffusion models

Luca Maria Del Bono, Giulio Biroli, Patrick Charbonneau +1

Computational sampling has been central to the sciences since the mid-20th century. While machine-learning-based approaches have recently enabled major advances, their behavior rem…

Fusion or Confusion? Assessing the impact of visible-thermal image fusion for automated wildlife detection

Camille Dionne-Pierre, Samuel Foucher, Jérôme Théau +4

Efficient wildlife monitoring methods are necessary for biodiversity conservation and management. The combination of remote sensing, aerial imagery and deep learning offer promisin…

Percolation and criticality of systems with competing interactions on Bethe lattices: limitations and potential strengths of cluster schemes

Greivin Alfaro Miranda, Mingyuan Zheng, Patrick Charbonneau +3

The random clusters introduced by Fortuin and Kasteleyn (FK) and analyzed by Coniglio and Klein (CK) for Ising and related models have led first Swendsen and Wang and then Wolff to…

Glass-like Caging with Random Planes

Gilles Bonnet, Patrick Charbonneau, Giampaolo Folena

The richness of the mean-field solution of simple glasses leaves many of its features challenging to interpret. A minimal model that illuminates glass physics the same way the rand…

Colloidal Hard Spheres: Triumphs, Challenges and Mysteries

C. Patrick Royall, Patrick Charbonneau, Marjolein Dijkstra +4

The simplicity of hard spheres as a model system is deceptive. Although the particles interact solely through volume exclusion, that nevertheless suffices for a wealth of static an…

Jamming, relaxation, and memory in a structureless glass former

Patrick Charbonneau, Peter K. Morse

Real structural glasses form through various out-of-equilibrium processes, including temperature quenches, rapid compression, shear, and aging. Each of these processes should be fo…
