Re-evaluating GPT-4’s bar exam performance by Martínez, Eric

“…First, although GPT-4’s UBE score nears the 90th percentile when examining approximate conversions from February administrations of the Illinois Bar Exam, these estimates are heavily skewed towards repeat test-takers who failed the July administration and score significantly lower than the general test-taking population. …”

Spectroscopic study of emergent electronic phases in transition metal based compounds by Song, Qian

“…Antiferromagnets with non-relativistic spin splitting are outstanding candidates as the next generation of spintronic materials owing to their electron-volt (eV) scale spin splitting, ultrafast spin dynamics and nearly vanishing stray fields. Achieving voltage-based control of spin polarization in antiferromagnets is of great interest for realizing energy-efficient and compact devices for information storage and processing. …”

Exploring the freshwater cladocera (Pleuroxus spp.) as new potential live feed in aquaculture by Amirah Yuslan, Hidayu Suhaimi, Nizalmie Azani, Wong, Wey-Lim, Nadiah W. Rasdi

“…In freshwater lakes, cladocera play a crucial role in the food chain, as they are the primary source of nutrition for nearly all aquatic species. Pleuroxus spp. are very suitable for aquaculture due to their ease of handling, rapid growth, non-selective filter feeder, high nutritional value, and remarkable ability to adapt to many environmental conditions. …”

Exploring the trait plasticity of ipa1-2d and qpl6 under different nitrogen treatments and heading periods by Zhuang, Wenshu, Jin, Guangyang, Zou, Yiting, Bian, Zhong, Xie, Dong, Zhang, Shuwei, Yeilaghi, Hadi, Yu, Liangliang, Wong, Muiyun, Fan, Xiaolei, Zhao, Dongsheng, Liu, Qiaoquan, Zhang, Lin

“…QTL analysis could elaborate on the environmental impact on trait plasticity using nearly isogenic lines (NILs) of different QTLs. Two QTLs, ipa1-2D and qPL6 are identified to have pleio-tropic contributions to panicle size and plant architecture, but their responses to different growth conditions are still unclear. …”

Amino-functionalised β-diketiminate ligands (N-nacnacs): Synthesis and coordination chemistry with Main Group elements by Huan, D

“…The establishment of a library of germylenes and stannylenes bearing different N-bound aromatic substituents with varying degrees of steric bulk allows for a systematic study of the steric effects of the flanking aryl groups on the overall molecular metrics of these complexes. …”

Non-contact actuated snap-through buckling of a pre-buckled bistable hard-magnetic elastica by Zhang, Yingchao, Ma, Yinji, Yu, Jing, Gao, Huajian

“…We identify an optimal position for the single M−interface and direction for the uniform actuation field for pre-buckled beams with two-ends fixed, which can reduce the required actuation field for snapping to nearly half in comparison with the symmetric cases. …”
