Neural networks: an introduction

In this chapter, neural networks are discussed. The present field of neural networks links a number of closely related areas, such as parallel distributed processing, connectionism and neural computing, these being brought together with the...

Quantum neural network

It is suggested that a quantum neural network (QNN), a type of artificial neural network, can be built using the principles of quantum information processing. The input and output qubits in the QNN can be implemented by optical modes with d...

Introduction to artificial neural networks

A neural network is a data processing system consisting of a large number of simple, highly interconnected processing elements in an architecture inspired by the structure of the cerebral cortex portion of the brain. Hence, neural networks ...

Quantized Neural Networks: Training Neural Networks with Low Precision Weights and Activations

We introduce a method to train Quantized Neural Networks (QNNs) --- neural networks with extremely low precision (e.g., 1-bit) weights and activations, at run-time. At train-time the quantized weights and activations are used for computing ...

Proceedings of the 22nd international conference on Machine learning

This volume, which is also available online from http://www.machinelearning.org, contains the papers accepted for presentation at ICML-2005, the 22nd lnternational Conference on Machine Learning, which was held at the University of Bonn in ...

Effect of Curcumin on Odontogenic/Osteogenic Differentiation of Dental Pulp Stem Cells

Introduction: Stem cells have gained great attention in tissue engineering and curcumin is a natural phenolic product that had showed some positive effects on these cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of curcumin on the ...

Optimization of Process Parameters of Air Classifier Based on Particle Trajectory

Under the rapid development of the world’s powder technology, powder materials are used in a wide range of fields such as metallurgy, chemical industry and petroleum. Turbo air classifier is one of the most important mechanical equipment in...

Logics of Statements in Context-Category Independent Basics

Based on a formalization of open formulas as statements in context, the paper presents a freshly new and abstract view of logics and specification formalisms. Generalizing concepts like sets of generators in Group Theory, underlying graph o...

Nonlinear Dynamics of Swinging Clapper Bells under Arbitrary or Resonant Forcing Functions

Study of swinging clapper bells involves aspects encompassing sound and acoustic engineering, mechanical engineering, and structural engineering. From the musical point of view, clapper bells are directly played idiophone instruments, where...

CD44-Receptors-Mediated Multiprong Targeting Strategy Against Breast Cancer and Tumor-Associated Macrophages: Design, Optimization, Characterization, and Cytologic Evaluation

Damage Strength Model of Soil–Structure Interface Based on Equivalent Damage

Objective Pile-soil interaction plays a critical role in slope support engineering. Since the contact surface represents the weakest link in the system, analyzing the influence of the soil shear area on the mechanical properties and the con...

Rethinking radiation therapy in the era of RAS inhibition for pancreatic cancer.

An IXPE-led X-Ray Spectropolarimetric Campaign on the Soft State of Cygnus X-1: X-Ray Polarimetric Evidence for Strong Gravitational Lensing

We present the first X-ray spectropolarimetric results for Cygnus X-1 in its soft state from a campaign of five IXPE observations conducted during 2023 May–June. Companion multiwavelength data during the campaign are likewise shown. The 2–8...

Coherent State Control to Recover Quantum Entanglement and Coherence

How to analytically deal with the entanglement and coherence dynamics of separated Jaynes−Cummings nodes with continuous-variable fields is still an open question. We here generalize this model to a more common situation including eit...

Chemical and Orbital Signatures of Three Hypervelocity Stars: Constraints on the Origins

We present a chemodynamical analysis of three hypervelocity stars (HVS) selected from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope medium-resolution spectroscopic survey and Gaia. The high-resolution follow-up observation w...

White dwarf + M dwarf Detached Binaries in Long Period Radio Transients: Observed Binary Parameters, Evolution, and Population Constraints

Long period radio transients (LPTs) are the slowest radio-pulsing sources ever found, with the current population spanning periods of seven minutes to over six hours. Two of the thirteen published LPTs, ILT J1101+5521 and GLEAM-X J0704--37,...

Polarized Multiwavelength Emission from Pulsar Wind—Accretion Disk Interaction in a Transitional Millisecond Pulsar

Transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) bridge the evolutionary gap between accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries and millisecond radio pulsars. These systems exhibit a unique subluminous X-ray state characterized by the prese...

Discrimination of Non-Local Correlations

In view of the importance of quantum non-locality in cryptography, quantum computation, and communication complexity, it is crucial to decide whether a given correlation exhibits non-locality or not. As proved by Pitowski, this problem is N...

Activation of Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: a Prospective Pilot Study

Introduction: Coagulation and fibrinolysis remain sparsely addressed with regards to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We hypothesized that ARDS development might be associated with changes in plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis. ...
