A byte sequence is worth an image: CNN for file fragment classification using bit shift and n-gram embeddings by Liu, Wenyang, Wang, Yi, Wu, Kejun, Yap, Kim-Hui, Chau, Lap-Pui

“…This is inherently inapt for classifying variable-length coding files whose symbols are represented as the variable number of bits. Conversely, we propose Byte2Image, a novel data augmentation technique, to introduce the neglected intra-byte information into file fragments and re-treat them as 2d gray-scale images, which allows us to capture both inter-byte and intra-byte correlations simultaneously through powerful convolutional neural networks (CNNs). …”

Crystalline boron-linked tetraaminoethylene radical cations by Su, Yuanting, Li, Yongxin, Ganguly, Rakesh, Kinjo, Rei

“…Single-electron oxidation of neutral boryl-linked tetraaminoethylene derivatives 4 led to the formation of radical cations 4˙+, which have been isolated and fully characterized. X-ray diffraction analysis, EPR spectroscopy, and computational studies revealed that the unpaired electron is delocalized over the B2N4C2 skeleton and the spin density mainly resides on the carbon and boron atoms.…”

Electronic structure of paramagnetic transition metal complexes by Al-Ameed, K

“…In Chapter 3, we address the question of redox-dependent spin transitions in triangular iron complexes. Experiments have shown that one-electron reduction of a pyrazolate-bridged Fe^III₃ cluster drives a transition from high- to low-spin configurations at all three metal centres. …”

Neutron emission studies from miniature and medium size plasma focus device by Singh, Rajdeep Raweet.

“…From the perspective of being utilized as a non-intrusive and non-destructive scanning tool, the added advantage with plasma focus devices is also that hard X-Ray and neutron scanning can be done simultaneously as the emission of neutrons is always accompanied by hard X-Rays.…”
