Leading US Research Lab Appears to Be Squeezing Out Foreign Scientists
House Democrats are demanding answers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology and urging it to halt rumored changes they say could undermine its mission. One of the US government's top scientific research labs is taking steps that could drive away foreign scientists, a shift lawmakers and sources tell WIRED could cost the country valuable expertise and damage the agency's credibility. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) helps determine the frameworks underpinning everything from cybersecurity to semiconductor manufacturing. Some of NIST's recent work includes establishing guidelines for securing AI systems and identifying health concerns with air purifiers and firefighting gloves. Many of the agency's thousands of employees, postdoctoral scientists, contractors, and guest researchers are brought in from around the world for their specialized expertise.

DA T ASHEET: MOTIVE
Please see the most updated version here . Was there a specific task in mind? Was there a specific gap that needed to be filled? The MOTI VE dataset was created to promote the development of new drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction models based on both, existing relationships between compounds and their protein targets, and the similarity of JUMP Cell Painting morphological features of perturbed cells [2].The MOTI VE dataset was created with the DTI task in mind, and addresses a lack of graph-based biological datasets with empirical node features. Who created this dataset (e.g., which team, research group) and on behalf of which entity (e.g., company, institution, organization)? This dataset was created by the Carpenter-Singh Lab in the Imaging Platform at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, Massachusetts. What support was needed to make this dataset? If there is an associated grant, provide the name of the grantor and the grant name and number, or if it was supported by a company or government agency, give those details.) The authors gratefully acknowledge an internship from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center (to ES).

Model Details
We decreased the confidence threshold to 0.1 to increase article and headline The following specifications were used: { resolution: 256, learning rate: 2e-3 }. This limit is binding for common words, e.g., "the". The recognizer is trained using the Supervised Contrastive ("SupCon") loss function [7], a gener-45 In particular, we work with the "outside" SupCon loss formulation We use a MobileNetV3 (Small) encoder pre-trained on ImageNet1k sourced from the timm [19] We use 0.1 as the temperature for Center Cropping, to avoid destroying too much information. C (Small) model that is developed in [2] for character recognition. If multiple article bounding boxes satisfy these rules for a given headline, then we take the highest.
