A longitudinal resource for population neuroscience of school-age children and adolescents in China
During the past decade, cognitive neuroscience has been calling for population diversity to address the challenge of validity and generalizability, ushering in a new era of population neuroscience. The developing Chinese Color Nest Project (devCCNP, 2013–2022), the first ten-year stage of the lifespan CCNP (2013–2032), is a two-stages project focusing on brain-mind development. The project aims to create and share a large-scale, longitudinal and multimodal dataset of typically developing children and adolescents (ages 6.0–17.9 at enrolment) in the Chinese population. The devCCNP houses not only phenotypes measured by demographic, biophysical, psychological and behavioural, cognitive, affective, and ocular-tracking assessments but also neurotypes measured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain morphometry, resting-state function, naturalistic viewing function and diffusion structure. This Data Descriptor introduces the first data release of devCCNP including a total of 864 visits from 479 participants. Herein, we provided details of the experimental design, sampling strategies, and technical validation of the devCCNP resource. We demonstrate and discuss the potential of a multicohort longitudinal design to depict normative brain growth curves from the perspective of developmental population neuroscience. The devCCNP resource is shared as part of the “Chinese Data-sharing Warehouse for In-vivo Imaging Brain” in the Chinese Color Nest Project (CCNP) – Lifespan Brain-Mind Development Data Community (https://ccnp.scidb.cn) at the Science Data Bank
Real-time Monitoring for the Next Core-Collapse Supernova in JUNO
Core-collapse supernova (CCSN) is one of the most energetic astrophysical
events in the Universe. The early and prompt detection of neutrinos before
(pre-SN) and during the SN burst is a unique opportunity to realize the
multi-messenger observation of the CCSN events. In this work, we describe the
monitoring concept and present the sensitivity of the system to the pre-SN and
SN neutrinos at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), which is
a 20 kton liquid scintillator detector under construction in South China. The
real-time monitoring system is designed with both the prompt monitors on the
electronic board and online monitors at the data acquisition stage, in order to
ensure both the alert speed and alert coverage of progenitor stars. By assuming
a false alert rate of 1 per year, this monitoring system can be sensitive to
the pre-SN neutrinos up to the distance of about 1.6 (0.9) kpc and SN neutrinos
up to about 370 (360) kpc for a progenitor mass of 30 for the case
of normal (inverted) mass ordering. The pointing ability of the CCSN is
evaluated by using the accumulated event anisotropy of the inverse beta decay
interactions from pre-SN or SN neutrinos, which, along with the early alert,
can play important roles for the followup multi-messenger observations of the
next Galactic or nearby extragalactic CCSN.Comment: 24 pages, 9 figure
SoccerNet 2023 Challenges Results
peer reviewedThe SoccerNet 2023 challenges were the third annual video understanding
challenges organized by the SoccerNet team. For this third edition, the
challenges were composed of seven vision-based tasks split into three main
themes. The first theme, broadcast video understanding, is composed of three
high-level tasks related to describing events occurring in the video
broadcasts: (1) action spotting, focusing on retrieving all timestamps related
to global actions in soccer, (2) ball action spotting, focusing on retrieving
all timestamps related to the soccer ball change of state, and (3) dense video
captioning, focusing on describing the broadcast with natural language and
anchored timestamps. The second theme, field understanding, relates to the
single task of (4) camera calibration, focusing on retrieving the intrinsic and
extrinsic camera parameters from images. The third and last theme, player
understanding, is composed of three low-level tasks related to extracting
information about the players: (5) re-identification, focusing on retrieving
the same players across multiple views, (6) multiple object tracking, focusing
on tracking players and the ball through unedited video streams, and (7) jersey
number recognition, focusing on recognizing the jersey number of players from
tracklets. Compared to the previous editions of the SoccerNet challenges, tasks
(2-3-7) are novel, including new annotations and data, task (4) was enhanced
with more data and annotations, and task (6) now focuses on end-to-end
approaches. More information on the tasks, challenges, and leaderboards are

Confining donor conformation distributions for efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence with fast spin-flipping
Abstract Fast spin-flipping is the key to exploit the triplet excitons in thermally activated delayed fluorescence based organic light-emitting diodes toward high efficiency, low efficiency roll-off and long operating lifetime. In common donor-acceptor type thermally activated delayed fluorescence molecules, the distribution of dihedral angles in the film state would have significant influence on the photo-physical properties, which are usually neglected by researches. Herein, we find that the excited state lifetimes of thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters are subjected to conformation distributions in the host-guest system. Acridine-type flexible donors have a broad conformation distribution or bimodal distribution, in which some conformers feature large singlet-triplet energy gap, leading to long excited state lifetime. Utilization of rigid donors with steric hindrance can restrict the conformation distributions in the film to achieve degenerate singlet and triplet states, which is beneficial to efficient reverse intersystem crossing. Based on this principle, three prototype thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters with confined conformation distributions are developed, achieving high reverse intersystem crossing rate constants greater than 106 s−1, which enable highly efficient solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes with suppressed efficiency roll-off
