Centimeter-long and large-scale micropatterns of reduced graphene oxide films : fabrication and sensing applications by He, Qiyuan, Sudibya, Herry Gunadi, Yin, Zongyou, Wu, Shixin, Li, Hai, Boey, Freddy Yin Chiang, Huang, Wei, Chen, Peng, Zhang, Hua

“…Compared to other methods for the fabrication of graphene patterns, our method is fast, facile, and substrate independent. In addition, we demonstrate that the nanoelectronic FETs based on our rGO patterns are able to label-freely detect the hormonal catecholamine molecules and their dynamic secretion from living cells.…”

Iterated MIDO space-time code constructions by Markin, Nadya, Oggier, Frederique

“…We consider the problem of designing codes for multiple antenna channels, with 4 transmit antennas and two receive antennas, using as code design full diversity and fast decodability. We present an iterated construction, which allows us to start with any algebraic 2 × 2 space-time code, and map it to a 4 × 4 MIDO code, for which a criterion for full diversity is available. …”

Towards effective online review systems in the Chinese context : a cross-cultural empirical study by Fang, Hui, Zhang, Jie, Bao, Yang, Zhu, Qinghua

“…Online reviews, as one kind of quality indicator of products or service, are becoming increasingly important in influencing purchase decisions of prospective consumers on electronic commerce websites. With the fast growth of the Chinese e-commerce industry, it is thus indispensable to design effective online review systems for e-commerce websites in the Chinese context, by taking into account cultural factors. …”

Multi-angle and full-Stokes polarization multispectral images using quarter-wave plate and tunable filter by Fan, A, Xu, T, Teng, G, Wang, X, Xu, C, Zhang, Y, Li, J

“…The MAFS-PMI dataset involves 73 fast axis angles (0° to 180°), four Stokes parameters, five polarization parameters, 35 spectral bands (520 nm to 690 nm), 400 × 400 pixels, and 12 distinct objects. …”

Dynamic network analysis of electrophysiological task data by Gohill, C, Kohl, O, Huang, R, van Es, MWJ, Jones, OP, Hunt, LT, Quinn, AJ, Woolrich, MW

“…While this simple approach can reveal fast oscillatory dynamics, the brain regions are analysed one at a time. …”

Introduction - Oxford Energy Forum – Issue, 96

“…This reflects the GCC states’ continuing pivotal role on global energy markets as a key centre of world energy supply. The fast-track economic growth and development experienced by the GCC economies since the mid-20th century in particular, however, has also left its toll on the region’s energy profile. …”

A dynamical analysis of the alignment mechanism between two interacting cells by Leech, V, Dalwadi, M, Manhart, A

“…We find that the two cells initially move apart to avoid overlap over a fast timescale, and then the presence of self-propulsion causes them to move towards a configuration of perfect alignment over a much slower timescale. …”

R-CNN minus R by Lenc, K, Vedaldi, A

“…Combined with convolutional feature pooling, we also obtain an excellent and fast detector that does not require to process an image with algorithms other than the CNN itself. …”
