Zelensky vows energy sector overhaul after 100m corruption scandal

BBC News

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has vowed to overhaul state-owned energy companies, after a major corruption scandal engulfed the country's energy sector. Around $100 million (ยฃ76m) has been embezzled, anti-graft investigators said, causing outrage in a country where Russian attacks have resulted in crippling power outages. Alongside a full audit of their financial activities, the management of these companies is to be renewed, Zelensky wrote in a post on X on Saturday. Energoatom, the state nuclear company at the heart of the scandal, will have a new supervisory board within a week, he added. Several of those implicated in the scandal have close links to the Ukrainian president.


Cormorant: Covariant Molecular Neural Networks

Neural Information Processing Systems

We propose Cormorant, a rotationally covariant neural network architecture for learning the behavior and properties of complex many-body physical systems. We apply these networks to molecular systems with two goals: learning atomic potential energy surfaces for use in Molecular Dynamics simulations, and learning ground state properties of molecules calculated by Density Functional Theory. Some of the key features of our network are that (a) each neuron explicitly corresponds to a subset of atoms; (b) the activation of each neuron is covariant to rotations, ensuring that overall the network is fully rotationally invariant. Furthermore, the non-linearity in our network is based upon tensor products and the Clebsch-Gordan decomposition, allowing the network to operate entirely in Fourier space. Cormorant significantly outperforms competing algorithms in learning molecular Potential Energy Surfaces from conformational geometries in the MD-17 dataset, and is competitive with other methods at learning geometric, energetic, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of molecules on the GDB-9 dataset.

A Closed form expressions for the robust risks

Neural Information Processing Systems

In Section A.1 and A.2 we derive closed-form expressions of the standard and robust risks from We first prove Equation (13). We now prove the second part of the statement. In this section we provide additional details on our experiments. B.1 Neural networks on sanitized binary MNIST If not mentioned otherwise, we use noiseless i.i.d. C.1 we give an intuitive explantion for the robust overfitting phenomenon described in C.2 we discuss how inconsistent adversarial training prevents We now shed light on the phenomena revealed by Theorem 3.1 and Figure 2. In particular, we In this section we further discuss robust logistic regression studied in Section 4. As observed in Section 4.4, label noise can prevent interpolation and hence improve the robust risk Hence, inconsistent training perturbations can induce spurious regularization effects.


Neural-Logic Human-Object Interaction Detection Supplementary Materials

Neural Information Processing Systems

This document provides additional materials to supplement our main manuscript. The detection loss used for the output of human decoder ( i.e ., Moreover, an auxiliary loss is applied to the intermediate outputs of each decoder layer which contributes to improved results in the decoding process. We provide qualitative results of our method, including both success and failure cases in Fig. S2. Additionally, our model may be inefficient when it needs to deduce additional contextual cues.


Alaska's smallest owl gets the royal treatment after life-threatening injury

Popular Science

Alaska's smallest owl gets the royal treatment after life-threatening injury The reign of the sparrow-sized'King Owlbert' is here. The northern pygmy-owl was found injured in Ketchikan, Alaska. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Situated on southeast Alaska's scenic Baranof Island, the Alaska Raptor Center in Sitka mainly treats the region's signature bald eagles . These large birds of prey are almost three feet tall and their wingspan is over 6 feet --so one can only imagine how striking it must have been when the staff received a sparrow-sized northern pygmy-owl-Alaska's smallest owl species.


Torsional Diffusion for Molecular Conformer Generation

Neural Information Processing Systems

Molecular conformer generation is a fundamental task in computational chemistry. Several machine learning approaches have been developed, but none have outperformed state-of-the-art cheminformatics methods.
