Search for B+ -> l+ nu gamma decays with hadronic tagging using the full Belle data sample

open access: yes, 2015
We search for the decay B+ -> l+ nu gamma with l+ = e+ or mu+ using the full Belle data set of 772 x 10^6 BBbar pairs, collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.

Interactive Prompt‐Guided Robotic Grasping for Arbitrary Objects Based on Promptable Segment Anything Model and Force‐Closure Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
A laser pointer‐guided robotic grasping method for arbitrary objects based on promptable segment anything model and force‐closure analysis is presented. Grasp generation methods based on force‐closure analysis can calculate the optimal grasps for objects through their appearances. However, the limited visual perception ability makes robots difficult to

Spin relaxation and decoherence of two-level systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We revisit the concepts of spin relaxation and spin decoherence of two level (spin-1/2) systems. From two toy-models, we clarify two issues related to the spin relaxation and decoherence: 1) For an ensemble of two-level particles each subjected to a ...

TOOLS OR TOYS? THE IMPACT OF HIGH TECHNOLOGY ON SCHOLARLY PRODUCTIVITY [PDF]

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, 2002
We examine the impact of communication technology on scholarly productivity by considering patterns of coauthored economics articles. Using articles in three major economics journals from 1970–79 and 1992–96, we find (1) sharp growth from distant coauthorships (authors not in the same metropolitan area prior to publication), as the theory predicts, and,

Haptic In‐Sensor Computing Device Based on CNT/PDMS Nanocomposite Physical Reservoir

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Using a porous carbon nanotube‐polydimethylsiloxane nanocomposite, a sensor array integrated with a physical reservoir computing paradigm capable of in‐sensor computing is demonstrated. The device is able to classify between nine objects with an accuracy above 80%, opening the possibility for low‐power sensing/computing for future robotics.

Multivariate optimization for the development of a sample preparation procedure and evaluation of trace elements in plastic toys

open access: yesJournal of Trace Elements and Minerals
Background: Due to the rigidity and resistance caused by formation of bonds between polymer chains, plastic toys are complex matrices. Objective: This study was Doehlert design for reagent optimization proportions employing microwave-assisted digestion ...

Boys and Their Toys? Masculinity, Technology, and Work [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Labor and Working-Class History, 1998
workers' objections to protective policies in American industries during World War Two. Arwen Mohun (University of Delaware) addressed the provocative question of why workers sometimes willingly risked their health, discussing the "calculus of risk" as a social construct shaped by both labor and capital.

Real‐Time Sampling‐Based Model Predictive Control Based on Reverse Kullback–Leibler Divergence and Its Adaptive Acceleration

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a new sampling‐based model predictive control minimizing reverse Kullback‐Leibler divergence to quickly find a local optimum. In addition, a modified Nesterov's acceleration method is introduced for faster convergence. The method is effective for real‐time simulations and real‐world operability improvement on a force‐driven mobile ...

Developing a protocol and experimental setup for using a humanoid robot to assist children with autism to develop visual perspective taking skills [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Visual Perspective Taking (VPT) is the ability to see the world from another person's perspective, taking into account what they see and how they see it, drawing upon both spatial and social information.
