Optimal transport is a notoriously difficult problem to solve numerically, with current approaches often remaining intractable for very large scale applications such as those encountered in machine learning. Wasserstein barycenters -- the…
Sound in indoor spaces forms a complex wavefield due to multiple scattering encountered by the sound. Indoor acoustic communication involving multiple sources and receivers thus inevitably suffers from cross-talks. Here, we demonstrate the…
In lossless acoustic systems, mode transitions are always time-reversible, consistent with Lorentz reciprocity, giving rise to symmetric sound manipulation in space-time. To overcome this fundamental limitation and break space-time…
