    Abstract: A method for tracking occluded objects includes encoding locations of a plurality of objects in an environment, determining a target object, receiving a first end point corresponding to a position of the target object before occlusion behind an occlusion object, distributing a hypothesis between both sides of the occlusion object during occlusion from a subsequent frame of the sequence of frames, receiving a second end point corresponding to a position of the target object after emerging from occlusion from another subsequent frame of the sequence of frames, and determining a trajectory of the target object when occluded by the occlusion object by performing inferences using a spatio-temporal probabilistic graph based on the current frame and the subsequent frames of the sequence of frames. The trajectory of the target object when occluded is used as a learning model for future target objects that are occluded by the occlusion object.

    Abstract: Sub-millimeter scale three-dimensional (3D) structures are disclosed with customizable chemical properties and/or functionality. The 3D structures are referred to as drop-carrier particles. The drop-carrier particles allow the selective association of one solution (i.e., a dispersed phased) with an interior portion of each of the drop-carrier particles, while a second non-miscible solution (i.e., a continuous phase) associates with an exterior portion of each of the drop-carrier particles due to the specific chemical and/or physical properties of the interior and exterior regions of the drop-carrier particles. The combined drop-carrier particle with the dispersed phase contained therein is referred to as a particle-drop. The selective association results in compartmentalization of the dispersed phase solution into sub-microliter-sized volumes contained in the drop-carrier particles. The compartmentalized volumes can be used for single-molecule assays as well as single-cell, and other single-entity assays.

    Abstract: Halide perovskite compounds comprising at least one metal cation, at least one halide anion, and at least one alkali metal-bound crown ether, such as (crown ether@A)2M(IV)X6, (crown ether@A)M(II)X4, or (crown ether@A)M(III)X5 (A=alkali metal cation, M=metal cation, X=halide anion), such as (18C6@K)2HfBr6, (18C6@K)2ZrCl4Br2, (18C6@Ba)MnBr4, and (18C6@Ba)SbCl5 are provided. Methods of generating such halide perovskite compounds are also provided. The halide perovskite compounds provided herein can have improved photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), improved tunability, improved purity, and/or improved stability relative to available halide perovskite compounds such as alkali metal cation vacancy-ordered perovskites.
