The existence of the common mode error (CME) in the continuous global navigation satellite system (GNSS) coordinate time series affects geophysical studies that use GNSS observations. To understand the potential contributors of CME in GNSS networks in Taiwan and their effect on velocity estimations, we used the principal component analysis (PCA) and independent component analysis (ICA) to filter the vertical coordinate time series from 44 high-quality GNSS stations in Taiwan island in China, with a span of 10 years. The filtering effects have been evaluated and the potential causes of the CME are analyzed. The root-mean-square values decreased by approximately 14% and 17% after spatio-temporal filtering using PCA and ICA, respectively. We then discuss the relationship between the CME sources obtained by ICA and the environmental loads. The results reveal that the independent displacements extracted by ICA correlate with the atmospheric mass loading (ATML) and land water storage mass loading (LWS) of Taiwan in terms of both its amplitude and phase. We then use the white noise plus power law noise model to quantitatively estimate the noise characteristics of the pre- and post-filtered coordinate time series based on the maximum likelihood estimation criterion. The results indicate that spatio-temporal filtering reduces the amplitude of the PL and the periodic terms in the GPS time series.

Abstract In the quest to realize a scalable quantum network, semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) offer distinct advantages including high single-photon efficiency and indistinguishability, high repetition rate (tens of GHz with Purcell enhancement), interconnectivity with spin qubits, and a scalable on-chip platform. However, in the past two decades, the visibility of quantum interference between independent QDs rarely went beyond the classical limit of 50% and the distances were limited from a few meters to kilometers. Here, we report quantum interference between two single photons from independent QDs separated by 302 km optical fiber. The single photons are generated from resonantly driven single QDs deterministically coupled to microcavities. Quantum frequency conversions are used to eliminate the QD inhomogeneity and shift the emission wavelength to the telecommunication band. The observed interference visibility is 0.67\pm0.02 (0.93\pm0.04) without (with) temporal filtering. Feasible improvements can further extend the distance to ~600 km. Our work represents a key step to long-distance solid-state quantum networks.

Temporal filtering of sensory stimuli is a key neural computation, but the way such filters are implemented within the brain is unclear. One potential mechanism for implementing temporal filters is short-term synaptic plasticity, which is governed in part by the expression of pre-synaptic proteins that position synaptic vesicles at different distances to calcium channels. Here we leveraged the Drosophila olfactory system to directly test the hypothesis that short-term synaptic plasticity shapes temporal filtering of sensory stimuli. We used optogenetic activation to drive olfactory receptor neuron (ORN) activity with high temporal precision and knocked down the presynaptic priming factor unc13A specifically in ORNs. We found that this manipulation specifically decreases and delays transmission of high frequencies, leading to poorer encoding of distant plume filaments. We replicate this effect using a previously-developed model of transmission at this synapse, which features two components with different depression kinetics. Finally, we show that upwind running, a key component of odor source localization, is preferentially driven by high-frequency stimulus fluctuations, and this response is reduced by unc13A knock-down in ORNs. Our work links the extraction of particular temporal features of a sensory stimulus to the expression of particular presynaptic molecules.

AbstractCells can encode information about their environment by modulating signaling dynamics and responding accordingly. Yet, the mechanisms cells use to decode these dynamics remain unknown when cells respond exclusively to transient signals. Here, we approach design principles underlying such decoding by rationally engineering a synthetic short-pulse decoder in budding yeast. A computational method for rapid prototyping, TopoDesign, allowed us to explore 4122 possible circuit architectures, design targeted experiments, and then rationally select a single circuit for implementation. This circuit demonstrates short-pulse decoding through incoherent feedforward and positive feedback. We predict incoherent feedforward to be essential for decoding transient signals, thereby complementing proposed design principles of temporal filtering, the ability to respond to sustained signals, but not to transient signals. More generally, we anticipate TopoDesign to help designing other synthetic circuits with non-intuitive dynamics, simply by assembling available biological components.
