Generative pretrained autoregressive transformer graph neural network applied to the analysis and discovery of novel proteins by Buehler, Markus J

“…The model is formulated as a general framework, completely prompt-based, and can be adapted for a variety of downstream tasks. We find that adding additional tasks yields emergent synergies that the model exploits in improving overall performance, beyond what would be possible by training a model on each dataset alone. …”

Picosecond charge localization dynamics in CH₃NH₃PbI₃ perovskite probed by infrared-activated vibrations by Stallhofer, Klara, Nuber, Matthias, Cortecchia, Daniele, Bruno, Annalisa, Kienberger, Reinhard, Deschler, Felix, Soci, Cesare, Iglev, Hristo

“…Here, we use infrared-activated vibrations (IRAV) of the organic components within the hybrid perovskite lattice as a sensitive probe for local structural reorganizations after photoexcitation, with femtosecond resolution. We find that the IRAV signal response shows a delayed rise of about 3 ps and subsequent decay of pronounced monomolecular character, distinguishing it from absorption associated with free carriers. …”

A new method to estimate slab dip direction using receiver functions and its application in revealing slab geometry and a diffuse plate boundary beneath Sumatra by Feng, Mingye, Chen, Ling, Wei, Shengji, Wang, Xin, Wang, Xu, Wu, Zimu

“…Similar dip directions are obtained for the upper and lower LVL boundaries beneath Nias and Enggano forearc islands in the north and south, whereas we find a larger discrepancy of ∼14–23° beneath Siberut and Pagai in between. …”

3D electron microscopy for analyzing nanoparticles in the tumor endothelium by Mladjenovic, Stefan M., Chandok, Ishaan S., Darbandi, Ali, Nguyen, Luan N. M., Stordy, Benjamin, Zhen, Mei, Chan, Warren C. W.

“…The 3DEM-NPD method allowed us to establish a metric to quantify nanoparticle transport at the single nanoparticle level and to quantify the morphological features of ~2,800 vesicles. We find that on average there are only 2.4 nanoparticles per vesicle with a theoretical maximum of 158 nanoparticles per vesicle (~66x increase). …”

Unveiling the facade of blog posts to reveal subjective well-being : an exploratory study. by Ou, Zhiqi., Tan, Justine Yi Ting., Tan, Jessie Zi Xi.

“…Our two main findings demonstrate that eight out of 11 of the regressions involving the objective ranking as the main independent variable show the objective ranking having the correct expected sign at at least the 10% significance level. …”

Essays in dynamic pricing, channel control and channel competition by Song, Boqian

“…In particular, we show the existence of a unique sub-game perfect normalized Nash equilibrium where both sellers share identical shadow prices on the constrained strategy space. We find that, at any given state, the normalized Nash equilibrium is uniquely determined by the reservation costs of distribution channels. …”

Study on impacts of engineering strategies on pedestrian behaviour and perceptions at zebra crossings by Ng, Wan Ying

“…The survey consists of questionnaires to find out the behaviour of pedestrians at both types of zebra crossings and from there, determine the safety impact of the “LOOK” sign. …”

Bio-modification of sand for cement grouting by Ng, Samuel Joel Rui Ming

“…This was answered by comparing the compressive strength of lean concrete cubes made with MICP treated sea sand to lean concrete made with untreated river sand. Research was done to find its economic cost. From the results obtained, it was found that as the amount of calcium carbonate increased, the strength of the lean concrete, in other words, grout, also increased with an optimum treatment run of 2 times. …”

Toward a neuroscientific understanding of play: a dimensional coding framework for analyzing infant–adult play patterns by Neale, Dave, Clackson, Kaili, Georgieva, Stanimira, Dedetas, Hatice, Scarpate, Melissa, Wass, Sam, Leong, Victoria

“…Here, we illustrate the sensitivity and utility of the proposed coding framework using two contrasting dyadic corpora (N = 5) of mother-infant object-oriented interactions during experimental conditions that were either non-conducive (Condition 1) or conducive (Condition 2) to the emergence of playful behavior. We find that the framework accurately identifies the modal form of social interaction as being either non-playful (Condition 1) or playful (Condition 2), and further provides useful insights about differences in the quality of social interaction and temporal synchronicity within the dyad. …”
