Ion‐Gating Reservoir Computing for Preprocessing‐Free Speech Recognition from Throat Vibrations

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a throat‐mounted mechanoelectric sensor integrated with an ion‐gel/graphene reservoir device for on‐device speech recognition. The system converts raw biomechanical vibrations into rich nonlinear current dynamics, enabling efficient classification through a simple linear readout. The approach highlights a compact and tunable physical‐

Deep Learning–Based Extraction of Promising Material Groups and Common Features from High‐Dimensional Data: A Case of Optical Spectra of Inorganic Crystals

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
We report a novel interpretation method for deep learning models based on feature extraction and clustering. Applying this method to an atomistic line graph neural network (ALIGNN) model trained on optical absorption spectra of 2,681 inorganic compounds obtained from first‐principles calculations, we successfully identify key factors underlying ...
