We investigate positron scattering upon endohedrals and compare it with electron-endohedral scattering. We show that the polarization of the fullerene shell considerably alters the polarization potential of an atom, stuffed inside a fullerene. This e...
We compare phase transition and critical phenomena of bond percolation on Euclidean lattices, nonamenable graphs, and complex networks. On a Euclidean lattice, percolation shows a phase transition between the nonpercolating phase and percolating phas...
Knock Codes are a knowledge-based unlock authentication scheme used on LG smartphones where a user enters a code by tapping or "knocking" a sequence on a 2x2 grid. While a lesser used authentication method, as compared to PINs or Android patterns, th...
Contribution: This article analyzes the learning and motivational impact of teacher-authored educational video games on computer science education and compares its effectiveness in both face-to-face and online (remote) formats. This work presents com...
Multi-modal emotion recognition has garnered increasing attention as it plays a significant role in human-computer interaction (HCI) in recent years. Since different discrete emotions may exist at the same time, compared with single-class emotion rec...
I’d love to purchase a bit of land. Land is a finite resource. If I own land… why I’m a baron or a lord compared to the average Joe. Is there much to owning land? Can you just own it and not do...
The Babar and CLEO collaborations have recently observed states decaying to D_s^+π^0 and D_s^{*+}π^0 respectively and suggest the possible explanation that they are the missing P-wave c\bar{s} states with J^P=0^+ and 1^+. In this note we compare...
We compare three new datasets for question answering: SQuAD 2.0, QuAC, and CoQA, along several of their new features: (1) unanswerable questions, (2) multi-turn interactions, and (3) abstractive answers. We show that the datasets provide complementar...
Here I suggest the use of a 3D scanning and rendering to create some virtual copies of ancient artifacts to study and compare them. In particular, this approach could be interesting for some roman marble busts, two of which are portraits of Julius Ca...
To simulate non-equilibrium compressible flows, a new discrete Boltzmann model, discrete Ellipsoidal Statistical(ES)-BGK model, is proposed. Compared with the original discrete BGK model, the discrete ES-BGK has a flexible Prandtl number. For the dis...
With Teng Tools being made in Sweden and offering a lifetime warranty, does this give you more confidence in their products compared to other brands? I'd love to hear your insights and …
Feb 13, 2024 · Log walls are stronger, but need the equivalent of 12 planks of wood compared to 5 (iirc) for wooden walls, so i generally use the walls unless i have a shed load of trees and axes to spare.
With auto browse, you can ask Gemini in Chrome to complete multi-step tasks for you on the web. For example, you can ask it to: Compare products, search for deals, and add items to your cart Hel
I know the opinions on Kiss the Villain are complicated, but I want to highlight something Rina Kent did really well in this book compared to some of her others: the domestic vibes between Gareth and ...
Apple introduced privacy labels in Dec. 2020 as a way for developers to report the privacy behaviors of their apps. While Apple does not validate labels, they also require developers to provide a privacy policy, which offers an important comparison p...
Anyone else notice a lower quality of wills videos recently? He doesn’t seem to be enjoying what he’s making either and just feels like brain rot at this point compared to the videos his peers are...
Apr 29, 2015 · I would read the first as referring to a deadline, the second referring to a total accumulation of days spent. For example, "This project must be finished within 30 days" is different …
Private comparison is a primitive for many cryptographic tasks, and recently several schemes for the quantum private comparison (QPC) have been proposed, where two users can compare the equality of their secrets with the help of a semi-honest third p...
For example, if I tune my high e to your standard e, the further the fret I go, the more flatter it gets, to the point where if I hit a 12, its completely out of tune, compared to if I just hit 0. It'...
Since Google introduced Kotlin as an official programming language for developing Android apps in 2017, Kotlin has gained widespread adoption in Android development. However, compared to Java, there is limited support for Kotlin code dependency analy...
