Accurately time-aligned spectral targets are essential for training electrocorticographic (ECoG) brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) intended for real-time speech output. This alignment is particularly challenging with "silent speech," in which speech occurs without phonation, or in the extreme, without articulation. Crafting suitably precise targets for silent speech is complex and error-prone due to multiple sources of temporal imprecision. We investigated how these temporal inaccuracies impact deep neural network performance in synthesizing speech from a BCI clinical trial participant who retained some speech capability. By simulating silent speech conditions through distortions in known acoustic target timings, we observed significant performance degradations at both phonetic and syllabic timescales. Accuracy-based measures offered a more reliable assessment of intelligibility than traditional metrics like the short-time objective intelligibility index, which may overestimate performance in low-precision contexts. These results underscore the need for advanced alignment techniques with precise phonetic and syllabic guarantees for silent speech BCIs focused on providing immediate output.

Classical network coding uses encoding of information over networks to achieve secure and high throughput communication with low latency. Its quantum analog, namely Quantum Network Coding (QNC) is a promising protocol to achieve quantum communication over quantum networks. In this paper, we propose a method for establishing QNC in Measurement-Based Quantum Computing (MBQC), which is a universal quantum computational model. We demonstrate that the problem of multiple unicast or multiple multicast of distinct computational basis states over a quantum network can be solved by simulating existing classical networks, with the CNOT implementation in MBQC as a basis for transmitting and encoding of states. We also show how it can be further extended to simultaneously distribute the Bell pairs and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states required for quantum communication between distant transmitter and corresponding receiver nodes of a network.

One of the most promising applications of quantum networks is entanglement-assisted sensing. The field of quantum metrology exploits quantum correlations to improve the precision bound for applications such as precision timekeeping, field sensing, and biological imaging. When measuring multiple spatially distributed parameters, current literature focuses on quantum entanglement in the discrete-variable case and quantum squeezing in the continuous-variable case, distributed amongst all of the sensors in a given network. However, it can be difficult to ensure that all sensors preshare entanglement of sufficiently high fidelity. This work probes the space between fully entangled and fully classical sensing networks by modeling a star network with probabilistic entanglement generation that is attempting to estimate the average of local parameters. The quantum Fisher information is used to determine which protocols best utilize entanglement as a resource for different network conditions. It is shown that without entanglement distillation there is a threshold fidelity below which classical sensing is preferable. For a network with a given number of sensors and links characterized by a certain initial fidelity and probability of success, this work outlines when and how to use entanglement, when to store it, and when it needs to be distilled.

Solid state potentiometry measures ion concentration is explored for ocean sciences. A small, low cost and low power sensor to measure salinity is currently not available in ocean sciences, but could unlock large scale spatial and temporal characterization of oceanographic areas of interest, such as the Arctic or coastal environments. To date these types of sensors are typically calibrated before each measurement, and target low concentrations. The challenge for these oceanographic environments is that the relevant concentration is much higher than usual for these sensors, and that calibration cannot take place before each measurement as buoy deployment is necessary for long term data collection. We are developing a small, low power salinity sensor based on chloride ion measurement, targeted at 20 ppt to 40 ppt, at sensitivities of 0.1 ppt. Here, we present current characterization results with respect to chloride ion concentration, temperature, and drift, and discuss methods to reduce and potentially measure drift in-situ.

Conformal transformation provides an effective way to detect optical orbital angular momentum (OAM). We demonstrate here a second-harmonic spiral transformation that enables infrared-visible detection of OAM states with a low energy loss. Remarkably, we predict and observe a record-high optical finesse, indicating improved separation efficiency enabled by this method.
