Dynamics in blue emitting metal halide perovskites for light emitting diodes by Karlsson, Max

“…We find that chloride incorporation, while having only a minor impact on efficiency at moderate levels, detrimentally affects device stability even in small amounts. We ascribe this phenomenon to an increased mobility of halogen ions in the mixed-halide lattice resulting from an increased chemically and structurally disordered landscape with reduced migration barriers. …”

4D printable thermally stimulated (meth)acrylate shape memory polymers with tailorable shape recovery force for vat photopolymerization by Ng, Chin Siang

“…Moreover, vat photopolymerization has one of the highest resolutions, capable of printing small features with great dimensional accuracy. The majority of developed SMPs that are printable with vat photopolymerization focused on achieving full shape recovery ratio and high shape fixity, which are key performance indicators of the shape memory effect. …”

Towards optimal scheduling of deep learning training jobs in GPU clusters by Gao, Wei

“…Large-scale simulations using the workload traces from production-level GPU clusters suggest that UniSched can significantly decrease the SLO violation rate of SLO jobs by up to 6.8X, and the latency of best-effort jobs by up to 4.0X. The small performance gap between simulations and physical experiments underscores the practicality of UniSched. …”

Extreme learning machines for feature learning by Liyanaarachchi Lekamalage, Chamara Kasun

“…Hence performing dimension reduction with linear ELM-AE and linear SELM-AE will cluster data points based on Euclidean distance (i.e. if the Euclidean distance between two data points is small, then these data points are assigned to one cluster) and reduce the Euclidean distance between data points belonging to the same cluster. …”

会话分析研究 ：“就” 作为回应开头单位的互动会话功能 = Conversation Analysis : “jiu” as a turn-initial object of a response in Mandarin conversation by 林美琦 Lim, Maggie Meiqi

“…In Conversation Analysis, we argue that the turn-initial object of a response can often have its own communicative function – it has been proven through extensive research that respondents do make use of these small objects to express their stance or attitude towards the prior turn. …”

GPU-based commonsense reasoning for real-time query answering and multimodal analysis by Tran, Ha Nguyen

“…The graph compression method converts the data graph to a weighted graph which is small enough to be maintained in GPU memory. To highlight the efficiency of our solution, we perform an extensive evaluation of GpSense against state-of-the-art subgraph matching algorithms. …”

Interventions for managing skeletal muscle spasticity following traumatic brain injury by Synnot, Anneliese, Chau, Marisa, Pitt, Veronica, O'Connor, Denise, Gruen, Russell Lindsay, Wasiak, Jason, Clavisi, Ornella, Pattuwage, Loyal, Phillips, Kate

“…It was difficult to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of these interventions due to poor reporting, small study size and the fact that participants with TBI were usually only a proportion of the overall total. …”

Topochemical manipulation of some complex transition metal oxides by Amano Patiño, ME

“…A mechanism to explain this effect is presented in which the greater 'plasticity' of small crystalline domains helps to limit the influence of lattice strain during the reaction. …”

Brownian dynamics simulation of soft matter with hydrodynamics: methods for constrained systems and shear processing of 2D materials by Funkenbusch, William Tian

“…We use the conformational and rotational properties of the sheet simulations to explain this behavior, demonstrating a new explanation for the non-monotonic rheological properties of 2D materials which does not involve sheet-sheet interactions (which are rare in dilute suspensions) or thermal energy (which is often small in sheet systems). We also study systems with two initially stacked sheets in order to model, for example, shear exfoliation of 2D materials. …”

Fabrication and characterization of graphene and carbon nanotube reinforced bioceramic nanocomposites by Hu, Huanlong

“…When rGO and CNT hybrid were used as reinforcements, the optimum dispersion of rGOs and CNTs, and the strong interface bonding between the nanocarbons and HA matrixes were established in the composites. Furthermore, the small-sized CNTs were found inserted into rGO plates in the mixed powder and sintered pellets. …”
