We have used a multiwavelength data set from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS) to study the Galactic HII region KR 140, both on the scale of the nebula itself and in the context of the star forming activity in the nearby W3/W4/W5 complex of...
In this paper, we compare the radio propagation channels characteristics between 28 and 140 GHz bands based on the wideband (several GHz) and directional channel sounding in a shopping mall environment. The measurements and data processing are conduc...
Food classification is a challenging problem due to the large number of categories, high visual similarity between different foods, as well as the lack of datasets for training state-of-the-art deep models. Solving this problem will require advances...
Due to the significant resemblance in visual appearance, pill misuse is prevalent and has become a critical issue, responsible for one-third of all deaths worldwide. Pill identification, thus, is a crucial concern needed to be investigated thoroughly...
Identifying prescription medications is a frequent task for patients and medical professionals; however, this is an error-prone task as many pills have similar appearances (e.g. white round pills), which increases the risk of medication errors. In th...
The oscillation feature in primordial power spectrum (PPS), a fingerprint of not only a wide class of models of inflation but new physics, is of significant theoretical interest, and can be imprinted on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In this...
This paper presents striking new data about the scale of Google's involvement in the global digital and corporate landscape, head and shoulders above the other big tech firms. While public attention and some antitrust scrutiny has focused on these fi...
JSON Schema is the de-facto standard schema language for JSON data. The language went through many minor revisions, but the most recent versions of the language added two novel features, dynamic references and annotation-dependent validation, that ch...
pairs in a dictionary or object. This is also used by data formats such as JSON. Some other languages use an equals sign. The colon is used as part of the
A defense attorney for the man accused of killing NHL star Johnny Gaudreau and his brother has claimed toxicology data shows his client was under the legal limit. The legal team for Sean Higgins ...
Existing research on Authorship Attribution (AA) focuses on texts for which a lot of data is available (e.g novels), mainly in English. We approach AA via Authorship Verification on short Italian texts in two novel datasets, and analyze the interacti...
This technical report summarizes the preliminary findings of a project that has been developed in 2007 by an Italian company (Datanet, based in Siracusa, Italy) togheter with two Italian research institutions: Universita' degli Studi di Milano and...
Visual preference alignment involves training Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) to predict human preferences between visual inputs. This is typically achieved by using labeled datasets of chosen/rejected pairs and employing optimization algorithms...
The increasing parameters and expansive dataset of large language models (LLMs) highlight the urgent demand for a technical solution to audit the underlying privacy risks and copyright issues associated with LLMs. Existing studies have partially addr...
The semantics of emoji has, to date, been considered from a static perspective. We offer the first longitudinal study of how emoji semantics changes over time, applying techniques from computational linguistics to six years of Twitter data. We identi...
Using a proprietary dataset of meta-orders and prediction signals, and assuming a quasi-linear impact model, we deconvolve market impact from past correlated trades and a predictable return component to elicit the temporal dependence of the market im...
Book these experiences for a close-up look at Los Angeles. These rankings are informed by Tripadvisor data—we consider traveler reviews, ratings, number of page views, and user location. 1. Universal …
datable outline drawing is probably by him, and includes a portrait of him prostrating himself before Christ. This was added to a blank page in an older book
Native advertising is one of the fastest growing areas of online promotion. After reviewing extant literature via EBSCOhost database, this study draws on Persuasion Knowledge Model and develops a theoretical framework which facilitates a clearer unde...
Marketers routinely allocate a significant portion of their budget to sponsorship. However, isolating the return on investment from such efforts has remained a challenge. Thus, a dataset of more than 5,800 sponsorships is analyzed using survival anal...
