Punctuation restoration Model and Spacing Model for Korean Ancient Document
In Korean ancient documents, there is no spacing or punctuation, and they are
written in classical Chinese characters. This makes it challenging for modern
individuals and translation models to accurately interpret and translate them.
While China has models predicting punctuation and spacing, applying them
directly to Korean texts is problematic due to data differences. Therefore, we
developed the first models which predict punctuation and spacing for Korean
historical texts and evaluated their performance. Our punctuation restoration
model achieved an F1 score of 0.84, and Spacing model achieved a score of 0.96.
It has the advantage of enabling inference on low-performance GPUs with less
VRAM while maintaining quite high accuracy.Comment: 5 Pages, 2 Figure
ADFNet: accumulated decoder features for real‐time semantic segmentation
Semantic segmentation is one of the important technologies in autonomous driving, and ensuring its real‐time and high performance is of utmost importance for the safety of pedestrians and passengers. To improve its performance using deep neural networks that operate in real‐time, the authors propose a simple and efficient method called ADFNet using accumulated decoder features, ADFNet operates by only using the decoder information without skip connections between the encoder and decoder. They demonstrate that the performance of ADFNet is superior to that of the state‐of‐the‐art methods, including that of the baseline network on the cityscapes dataset. Further, they analyse the results obtained via ADFNet using class activation maps and RGB representations for image segmentation results
Control of randomly scattered surface plasmon polaritons for multiple-input and multiple-output plasmonic switching devices
Merging multiple microprocessors with high-speed optical networks has been considered a promising strategy for the improvement of overall computation power. However, the loss of the optical communication bandwidth is inevitable when interfacing between optical and electronic components. Here we present an on-chip plasmonic switching device consisting of a two-dimensional (2D) disordered array of nanoholes on a thin metal film that can provide multiple-input and multiple-output channels for transferring information from a photonic to an electronic platform. In this device, the surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) generated at individual nanoholes become uncorrelated on their way to the detection channel due to random multiple scattering. We exploit this decorrelation effect to use individual nanoholes as independent antennas, and demonstrated that more than 40 far-field incident channels can be delivered simultaneously to the SPP channels, an order of magnitude improvement over conventional 2D patterned devices. © 2017 The Author(s)1241sciescopu
Near-field transmission matrix microscopy for mapping high-order eigenmodes of subwavelength nanostructures
© 2020, The Author(s).As nanoscale photonic devices are densely integrated, multiple near-field optical eigenmodes take part in their functionalization. Inevitably, these eigenmodes are highly multiplexed in their spectra and superposed in their spatial distributions, making it extremely difficult for conventional near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) to address individual eigenmodes. Here, we develop a near-field transmission matrix microscopy for mapping the high-order eigenmodes of nanostructures, which are invisible with conventional NSOM. At an excitation wavelength where multiple modes are superposed, we measure the near-field amplitude and phase maps for various far-field illumination angles, from which we construct a fully phase-referenced far- to near-field transmission matrix. By performing the singular value decomposition, we extract orthogonal near-field eigenmodes such as anti-symmetric mode and quadruple mode of multiple nano-slits whose gap size (50 nm) is smaller than the probe aperture (150 nm). Analytic model and numerical mode analysis validated the experimentally observed modes11sci
Guidance for Health Care Leaders During the Recovery Stage of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Consensus Statement
Geerts JM, Kinnair D, Taheri P, et al. Guidance for Health Care Leaders During the Recovery Stage of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Consensus Statement. JAMA network open. 2021;4(7):e2120295.Importance: The COVID-19 pandemic is the greatest global test of health leadership of our generation. There is an urgent need to provide guidance for leaders at all levels during the unprecedented preresolution recovery stage.; Objective: To create an evidence- and expertise-informed framework of leadership imperatives to serve as a resource to guide health and public health leaders during the postemergency stage of the pandemic.; Evidence Review: A literature search in PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase revealed 10 910 articles published between 2000 and 2021 that included the terms leadership and variations of emergency, crisis, disaster, pandemic, COVID-19, or public health. Using the Standards for Quality Improvement Reporting Excellence reporting guideline for consensus statement development, this assessment adopted a 6-round modified Delphi approach involving 32 expert coauthors from 17 countries who participated in creating and validating a framework outlining essential leadership imperatives.; Findings: The 10 imperatives in the framework are: (1) acknowledge staff and celebrate successes; (2) provide support for staff well-being; (3) develop a clear understanding of the current local and global context, along with informed projections; (4) prepare for future emergencies (personnel, resources, protocols, contingency plans, coalitions, and training); (5) reassess priorities explicitly and regularly and provide purpose, meaning, and direction; (6) maximize team, organizational, and system performance and discuss enhancements; (7) manage the backlog of paused services and consider improvements while avoiding burnout and moral distress; (8) sustain learning, innovations, and collaborations, and imagine future possibilities; (9) provide regular communication and engender trust; and (10) in consultation with public health and fellow leaders, provide safety information and recommendations to government, other organizations, staff, and the community to improve equitable and integrated care and emergency preparedness systemwide.; Conclusions and Relevance: Leaders who most effectively implement these imperatives are ideally positioned to address urgent needs and inequalities in health systems and to cocreate with their organizations a future that best serves stakeholders and communities
