Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Controlled carbonization of an Al‐MOF partially decomposes its linkers, exposing coordinatively unsaturated Al centers within an oxide/carbon composite. The resulting Lewis acid sites, rather than surface area, govern organochlorine capture: the composite removes chemically diverse organochlorines from waste plastic pyrolysis oil, outperforms a ...

Paired and Group Oral Assessment
Studies in Applied Linguistics & TESOL, 2014 The assessment of second language (L2) speaking has long been an important yet challenging area of research in language testing. L2 testers are often concerned with designing authentic speaking tasks that resemble real-life speaking activities so that ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Self‐invalidating multilayer physical unclonable functions (PUFs) integrate fingerprint‐like metal nanopattern bilayers from block copolymer templates with highly reactive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) interlayers. This tamper‐responsive architecture blocks all unauthorized physical and chemical replication attempts while autonomously deactivating ...

F-ratio Client-Dependent Normalisation for Biometric Authentication Tasks [PDF]
Proceedings. (ICASSP '05). IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2005., 2006 The paper investigates a new client-dependent normalisation to improve biometric authentication systems. There exist many client-dependent score normalisation techniques, such as Z-Norm, D-Norm and T-Norm, that are applied to speaker authentication. Such normalisation is intended to adjust the variation across different client models.
