Article Abstract
Improving the tolerance of channel noise is an important task for devising and implementing quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols. Quantum phase-flip error rejection (QPFER) code [Phys. Rev. Lett.92, 077902 (2004)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.92.077902] has been introduced by Wang to increase the tolerable phase-flip noise of QKD implementations. However, an experiment that demonstrates its advantages is still missing. Here, we experimentally verify the QPFER code with the assistance of two photon quantum states generated by spontaneous parametric downconversion. The methods of parity check and postselection are introduced to the protocol for achieving the phase-flipping rejection. Comparing with the standard realization of the single photon polarization encoding BB84 scheme, the quantum error rate after decoding is obviously reduced when the probability of channel noise is less than 25%. The experiment results also show that QPFER protocol can reduce error rate, obtain a higher key rate, and be robust in the noisy channel when the noise level is in a proper region.

Maintenance of organismal function requires tightly regulated biomolecular communication. However, with aging, communication deteriorates, thereby disrupting effective information flow. Using information theory applied to skeletal muscle single cell RNA-seq data from young, middle-aged, and aged animals, we quantified the loss of communication efficiency over time.

Achieving stable and continuous monitoring of signals of numerous single neurons in the brain faces the conflicting challenge of increasing the microelectrode count while minimizing cross-sectional shank dimensions to reduce tissue damage, foreign-body-reaction and maintain signal quality. Passive probes need to route each microelectrode individually to external electronics, thus increasing shank size and tissue-damage as the number of electrodes grows. Active complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) probes overcome the limitation in electrode count and density with on-probe frontend, addressing and multiplexing circuits, but current probes have relatively large shank widths of 70 - 100 μm.

The auditory brainstem response (ABR) remains the gold standard for evaluating hearing function in both animal models and humans. Features of ABR, including threshold, wave I amplitude and latency are critical for diagnosing and investigating the mechanisms of hearing loss. Critically, the rapid proliferation of genetically engineered mouse models in hearing research has created an imperative demand for high-throughput ABR testing capabilities.

In multivariate time series forecasting (MTSF), accurately modeling the intricate dependencies among multiple variables remains a significant challenge due to the inherent limitations of traditional approaches. Most existing models adopt either channel-independent (CI) or channel-dependent (CD) strategies, each presenting distinct drawbacks. CI methods fail to leverage the potential insights from inter-channel interactions, resulting in models that may not fully exploit the underlying statistical dependencies present in the data.

Intercropping maize and soybean with distinct plant heights is a typical practice in diversified cropping systems, where shadows cast by taller maize plants onto soybean rows pose significant challenges for image based recognition. This study conducted experiments throughout the entire soybean-maize intercropping period to address illumination variation. Based on the height difference between crops, solar elevation angle, and light intensity at the top of the soybean canopy, an illumination compensation regression model was developed.
