Ag nanowire-grid polarizers (NWGPs) were prepared by a one-step fabrication method, called liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer molding (LB-nTM). LB-nTM is a new direct nano-patterning method based on the direct transfer of various materials from a mold to a substrate via liquid layer. We fabricated NWGPs with Ag nanowire arrays (81 nm parallel lines and 119 nm spaces) on 2.5 in. transparent sub...

Online social networks have become popular platforms for spammers to spread malicious content and links. Existing state-of-the-art optimization methods mainly use one kind of user-generated information (i.e., single view) to learn a classification model for identifying spammers. Due to the diversity and variability of spammers' strategies, spammers' behavior may not be completely characterized ...

Since infectious diseases heed no national borders, international research collaboration across borders must be enhanced. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) of Japan launched the J-GRID program in the fiscal year (FY) 2005, which consists of the two elements; (1) the construction of collaboration centers in Asian and African countries on a reciprocal basis...

Age structure data is essential for single species stock assessments but length-frequency data can provide complementary information. In south-western Australia, the majority of these data for exploited species are derived from line caught fish. However, baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo-BRUVS) surveys have also been found to provide accurate length measurements. Given that ...

This article presents an analysis of Brazilian research on High Energy Physics (HEP) indexed by Web of Science (WoS) from 1983 to 2013. Scientometric indicators for output, collaboration and impact were used to characterize the field under study. The results show that the Brazilian articles account for 3% of total HEP research worldwide and that the sharp rise in the scientific activity between...

among the intellectual figures of france in the 20th century, pierre bourdieu has left the greatest influence on sociological studies. in this respect he may only be compared with levi strauss, except for the fact that strauss’ influence outside france has been much less and that the foundations of strauss’ thought; that is, the structural theory of social science, has long lost its power while...

The explosive popularity of social media produces mountains of high-dimensional data and the nature of social media also determines that its data is often unlabelled, noisy and partial, presenting new challenges to feature selection. Social media data can be represented by heterogeneous feature spaces in the form of multiple views. In general, multiple views can be complementary and, when used ...

A recent framework inspired by phenomenological philosophy, dynamical systems theory, embodied cognition and robotics has proposed the interactive brain hypothesis (IBH). Whereas mainstream social neuroscience views social cognition as arising solely from events in the brain, the IBH argues that social cognition requires, in addition, causal relations between the brain and the social environmen...

BACKGROUND A prior randomized controlled trial of social media exposure at Circulation determined that social media did not increase 30-day page views. Whether insufficient social media intensity contributed to these results is uncertain. METHODS AND RESULTS Original article manuscripts were randomized to social media exposure compared with no social media exposure (control) at Circulation be...
