Dark matter self-interactions from spin-2 mediators

Abstract We propose a new mechanism for rendering dark matter self-interacting in the presence of a massive spin-2 mediator.The derived Yukawa-type potential for dark bekindtopets.com matter is independent of the spins of dark matter in the leading order of the momentum expansion, so are the resulting non-perturbative effects for the dark matter se

Self-Supervised Domain Adaptation for Computer Vision Tasks

Recent progress anodized pearl price xbox of self-supervised visual representation learning has achieved remarkable success on many challenging computer vision benchmarks.However, whether these techniques can be used for domain adaptation has not been explored.In this work, we propose a generic method for self-supervised domain adaptation, using ob
