Ozone layer perturbation by a single blue jet

Simultaneous perturbation for single hidden layer networks -- cascade learning

A simultaneous perturbation approach for cascade learning of single hidden layer neural network is presented. A sigmoidal hidden neuron is added to the single layer of hidden neurons after training until the error has stopped decreasing after a certain limit. Then, the cascaded network is again trained using simultaneous perturbation. Perturbation employed on the weights connecting to hidden ne...

Blue perturbation spectra from inflation.

We investigate inflationary models leading to density perturbations with a spectral index n > 1 (“blue spectra”). These perturbation spectra may be useful to simultaneously account for both the amount of ultra large-scale power required to fit cosmic microwave background anisotropies, such as those measured by COBE, and that required to give bulk motions and structures on the ∼ 50 h Mpc scale.

Multi-Layer Free Energy Perturbation

Free energy perturbation (FEP) is frequently used to evaluate the free energy change of a biological process, e.g. the drug binding free energy or the ligand solvation free energy. Due to the sampling inefficiency, FEP is often employed together with computationally expensive enhanced sampling methods. Here we show that this sampling inefficiency, which stems from not accounting for the environ...

A strategy for fabricating single layer graphene sheets based on a layer-by-layer self-assembly.

A novel approach to synthesize graphene nanosheet is explored on the basis of the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly of polyallylamine (PAA) and poly(styrene-sulfonate) (PSS) multi-layer with a metallic dopant.
