Semantic matching in machine reading comprehension: an empirical study by Liu, Qian, Mao, Rui, Geng, Xiubo, Cambria, Erik

“…Matching coarse-grained context to questions, e.g., paragraphs, is more effective than matching fine-grained context, e.g., sentences and spans. We also find that semantic matching is helpful for answering who/where/when/what/how/which questions, whereas it decreases the MRC performance on why questions. …”

Profile of optical constants of SiO2 thin films containing Si nanocrystals by Dong, Gui, Chen, Tupei, Liu, Yang, Tse, Man Siu, Fung, Stevenson Hon Yuen

“…In this work, an approach of the depth profiling for the thin film synthesized with ion implantation is developed. In this approach, the nc-Si depth distribution obtained from secondary ion mass spectroscopy measurement is modeled with the approximation of many sublayers, and for a given wavelength the optical constants of each sublayer are formulated with the nc-Si volume fraction in the sublayer and the nc-Si optical constants as variables based on the effective medium approximation. …”

Taming nonclassical carbocations to control small ring reactivity by McNamee, RE, Frank, N, Christensen, KE, Duarte, F, Anderson, EA

“…For example, the solvolysis of cyclobutyl or cyclopropylmethyl derivatives generates up to four products on nucleophilic capture or elimination via cyclopropylcarbinyl and bicyclobutonium ions. Here, we show that such reaction outcomes can be controlled by subtle changes to the structure of nonclassical carbocation. …”
