From Common to Special: When Multi-Attribute Learning Meets Personalized Opinions
Visual attributes, which refer to human-labeled semantic annotations, have gained increasing popularity in a wide range of real world applications. Generally, the existing attribute learning methods fall into two categories: one focuses on learning user ...

Efficient parametric amplification in high and very high frequency piezoelectric nanoelectromechanical systems [PDF]
Parametric amplification in nanomechanical structures is demonstrated by modulating a purely intrinsic mechanical parameter of the system—the stress—via piezoelectric electromechanical coupling.

Power Spectra for Galaxy Shape Correlations [PDF]
It has recently been argued that the observed ellipticities of galaxies may be determined at least in part by the primordial tidal gravitational field in which the galaxy formed.

Electronic and thermoelectric properties of Fe2VAl: The role of defects and disorder
Using first-principles calculations, we show that Fe2VAl is an indirect band gap semiconductor. Our calculations reveal that its, sometimes assigned, semimetallic character is not an intrinsic property but originates from the antisite defects and site ...
