Phase slips occur across all Josephson junctions (JJs) at a rate that increases with the impedance of the junction. In superconducting qubits composed of JJ-array superinductors—such as fluxonium—phase slips in the array can lead to decoherence. In particular, phase-slip processes at the individual array junctions can coherently interfere, each with an Aharonov-Casher phase that depends on the offset charges of the array islands. These coherent quantum phase slips (CQPS) perturbatively modify the qubit frequency, and therefore charge noise on the array islands will lead to dephasing. By varying the impedance of the array junctions, we design a set of fluxonium qubits in which the expected phase-slip rate within the JJ array changes by several orders of magnitude. We characterize the coherence times of these qubits and demonstrate that the scaling of CQPS-induced dephasing rates agrees with our theoretical model. Furthermore, we perform noise spectroscopy of two qubits in regimes dominated by either CQPS or flux noise. We find that the noise power spectrum associated with CQPS dephasing appears to be featureless at low frequencies and not 1/f. Numerical simulations indicate that this behavior is consistent with charge noise generated by charge-parity fluctuations within the array. Our findings broadly inform JJ-array-design trade-offs, relevant for the numerous superconducting-qubit designs employing JJ-array superinductors.

Particle-based Bayesian inference methods by sampling from a partition-free target (posterior) distribution, e.g., Stein variational gradient descent (SVGD), have attracted significant attention. We propose a path-guided particle-based sampling (PGPS) method based on a novel Log-weighted Shrinkage (LwS) density path linking an initial distribution to the target distribution. We propose to utilize a Neural network to learn a vector field motivated by the Fokker-Planck equation of the designed density path. Particles, initiated from the initial distribution, evolve according to the ordinary differential equation defined by the vector field. The distribution of these particles is guided along a density path from the initial distribution to the target distribution. The proposed LwS density path allows for an efficient search of modes of the target distribution while canonical methods fail. We theoretically analyze the Wasserstein distance of the distribution of the PGPS-generated samples and the target distribution due to approximation and discretization errors. Practically, the proposed PGPS-LwS method demonstrates higher Bayesian inference accuracy and better calibration ability in experiments conducted on both synthetic and real-world Bayesian learning tasks, compared to baselines, such as SVGD and Langevin dynamics, etc. Copyright 2024 by the author(s)

With the popularity of convolutional neural networks being used for salient object detection (SOD), the performance has been significantly improved. However, how to integrate crucial features for modeling salient objects needs further exploration. In this work, we propose an effective feature selection scheme to solve this task. Firstly, we provide a Simplified Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (SASPP) module to lightweight the multi-scale features. Dealing with the SASSP features, we design a pixel-level local feature selection scheme named Multi-Scale Capsule-wise Attention (MSCA). It aggregates features from multi-scales by dynamic routing and helps the network to generate fine-grained prediction maps. In addition, we exploit holistic features by the Spatial-wise Attention and Channel-wise Attention (SA/CA) mechanisms, which adaptively extracts spatial or channel information. We also propose a Multi-crossed Layer Connections (MLC) structure in the upsampling stage, to fuse features from not only different levels but also different scales. The salient object prediction is performed in a coarse-to-fine manner. By conducting comprehensive experiments on five benchmark datasets, our method achieves the best performance when compared to existing state-of-the-art approaches. IEEE
