L - R, Sergeants Clarence Beavers, James Kornegay, Ned Bess, Corporal Elijah Wesby and Sergeant Alvin Moon of the United States Army All African American 555th Parachute Infantry Battalion (nicknamed the Triple Nickles because of its numerical designation) aim their M3 .45-caliber These five soldiers were part of the original 17 member selection that succeeded in becoming the first All African American parachute infantry battalion. In early 1945 the battalion were sent to Camp Pendleton in Oregon and assigned to the 9th Services Command, trained by the U.S. Forest Service, and became history's first military airborne firefighting smokejumpers. On October 16, the National Park Service (NPS)announced the latest additions to a growing list of designated World War II Heritage Cities.

Hawaii's 550-year-old Hōlei Sea Arch collapses into the ocean
Science Physics Hawaii's 550-year-old Hōlei Sea Arch collapses into the ocean All sea arches must come to an end. More information Adding us as a Preferred Source in Google by using this link indicates that you would like to see more of our content in Google News results. A 550-year-old sea arch in Hawaii has fallen into the Pacific Ocean. While the exact timing is unknown, the iconic Hōlei Sea Arch in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island collapsed by Sunday, September 27. According to Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, the fall may have happened while the park was temporarily closed due to Tropical Storm Nolo .

Meta reportedly abandoned an AI-focused restructuring plan that would have laid off thousands
Sometimes, AI-driven restructuring goes about as well as an AI-assisted legal brief. Reuters reports that Meta spent much of this year testing a plan in which AI would take over many of the workforce's daily tasks. Dubbed Project OT, the plan appears to connect two stories from earlier this year: Meta's 10 percent workforce reduction and the company's program that tracked employees' mouse movements and keystrokes. Meta executives were reportedly influenced by startups, including some they observed in Asia, that had structured themselves around AI. At an annual leadership retreat in January at Mark Zuckerberg's Hawaii estate, executives laid out an "AI native" vision for the company.

Hawaii: Hierarchical Visual Knowledge Transfer for Efficient Vision-Language Models
Improving the visual understanding ability of vision-language models (VLMs) is crucial for enhancing their performance across various tasks. While using multiple pretrained visual experts has shown great promise, it often incurs significant computational costs during training and inference. To address this challenge, we propose HAWAII, a novel framework that distills knowledge from multiple visual experts into a single vision encoder, enabling it to inherit the complementary strengths of several experts with minimal computational overhead. To mitigate conflicts among different teachers and switch between different teacher-specific knowledge, instead of using a fixed set of adapters for multiple teachers, we propose to use teacher-specific Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) adapters with a corresponding router. Each adapter is aligned with a specific teacher, avoiding noisy guidance during distillation. To enable efficient knowledge distillation, we propose fine-grained and coarse-grained distillation. At the fine-grained level, token importance scores are employed to emphasize the most informative tokens from each teacher adaptively. At the coarse-grained level, we summarize the knowledge from multiple teachers and transfer it to the student using a set of general-knowledge LoRA adapters with a router. Extensive experiments on various vision-language tasks demonstrate the superiority of HAWAII, compared to the popular open-source VLMs.
