We have studied the properties of singlet open-shell molecules that are designed, synthesized, and isolated by us. The molecules contain p-quinodimethane or cumulene structures in the middle of their skeletons, and also equip spindelocalizing moieties, phenalenyl, in the both ends for thermodynamic stabilization. Crystal structures and electronic spectra revealed that these conjugated Kekulé mo...

Modern processor architectures are inexorably embracing both increasing levels of parallelism and heterogeneous processing elements. Both trends reflect the need to deliver both greater performance and better energy efficiency. However, both trends also present numerous challenges to programmers for which they are often unprepared. These architectural trends appear durable rather than ephemeral...

Interpersonal encounters are a complex phenomenon in human-human interaction. As social encounters with virtual agents become more important, these agents have to cope with problems of social perception, as well. To account for tasks concerned with the acquisition, utilization, and recall of social information, we earlier proposed to equip virtual agents with a Person Memory. In this paper we p...

Advances in technology equip tra c domain with instruments to gather and analyze data for safe and fuele cient traveling. This article elaborates on the e↵ects from taxi drivers route selection on fuel e ciency. We fuse real driving behavior data from taxi cabs, weather, and digital map information for fuel consumption prediction. That way we compare actually driven trips and their quickest and...

This paper proposes an incremental learning strategy for neural word embedding methods, such as SkipGrams and Global Vectors. Since our method iteratively generates embedding vectors one dimension at a time, obtained vectors equip a unique property. Namely, any right-truncated vector matches the solution of the corresponding lower-dimensional embedding. Therefore, a single embedding vector can ...

The paper examines the course Facilitating Information Literacy Education (FILE) which aims to equip information practitioners working in the health sector with the competence and the confidence required to facilitate information literacy education. The main aim of the paper is to present an overall evaluation of the emancipating impact that ICT and other technologies have had on the participan...

Dependency-based Compositional Semantics (DCS) provides a precise and expressive way to model semantics of natural language queries on relational databases, by simple dependency-like trees. Recently abstract denotation is proposed to enable generic logical inference on DCS. In this paper, we discuss some other possibilities to equip DCS with logical inference, and we discuss further on how logi...

Schizophrenia is a common and devastating illness. Patients with schizophrenia may develop many disabilities both due to the disease process as well as due to side effects of the medication used. There are many advances in the treatment of schizophrenia, which can effectively reduce many of these disabilities. Treatment of schizophrenia is a primary health care responsibility and thus all healt...

This study identified specific regional risk factors for the high rate of pediatric pedestrian trauma in Florida. Of the 29 cases studied prospectively, 3 (10%) occurred near ice cream trucks and 13 (45%) involved "dart-outs"; mean hospital charges were 24,478 +/- 43,939 US dollars. Recommendations included an engineering change for a dangerous intersection, and a population-based recommendatio...
