ASAP: Amortized Doubly-Stochastic Attention via Sliced Dual Projection
Huy Tran, Max Milkert, David Hyde
Doubly-stochastic attention has emerged as a transport-based alternative to row-softmax attention, with recent Transformer variants using it to reduce attention sinks and rank coll…
STA-FEM: Exact Streaming Assembly for Preplanned Dynamic Tetrahedral Topology Edits
Manish Acharya, David Hyde
Dynamic tetrahedral simulation pipelines rebuild topology-dependent solver state after every fracture, refinement, or merge event - discarding structural continuity that survives e…
A New Algorithm for Applying Sequences of Affine Transformations in Quantum Circuits
Anish Giri, David Hyde, Kalman Varga
This paper introduces a robust and scalable framework for implementing nested affine transformations in quantum circuits. Utilizing Hadamard-supported conditional initialization an…
PhysMorph-GS: Render-Guided Volumetric Morphing with Differentiable Physics
Chang-Yong Song, David Hyde
Differentiable particle-based simulation can produce physically plausible motion, but target-driven volumetric shape morphing remains underconstrained: physics-only mass matching c…
On the Structural Failure of Chamfer Distance in 3D Shape Optimization
Chang-Yong Song, David Hyde
Chamfer distance is the standard training loss for point cloud reconstruction, completion, and generation, yet directly optimizing it can produce worse Chamfer values than not opti…
CulinaryCut-VLAP: A Vision-Language-Action-Physics Framework for Food Cutting via a Force-Aware Material Point Method
Hyunseo Koh, Chang-Yong Song, Youngjae Choi +3
Food cutting is a highly practical yet underexplored application at the intersection of vision and robotic manipulation. The task remains challenging because interactions between t…
