    Get PDF
    Design of a multiband internal antenna for mobile handset applications is presented. Two antenna elements are formed on top and bottom of the common substrate and connected by metallic pin. Resonant frequency of each element is almost independent. Matching the impedance with the slit, a wide bandwidth is achieved so that the operating frequency bands include GSM (880-960 MHz), GPS (1575 MHz), DCS (1710-1880 MHz), USPCS (1850-1990 MHz), and UMTS (1885-2200 MHz). Radiation patterns are omni-directional for all frequency bands. Details of the proposed antenna as well as the measured results are presented

    K-MHaS: A Multi-label Hate Speech Detection Dataset in Korean Online News Comment

    Full text link
    Online hate speech detection has become an important issue due to the growth of online content, but resources in languages other than English are extremely limited. We introduce K-MHaS, a new multi-label dataset for hate speech detection that effectively handles Korean language patterns. The dataset consists of 109k utterances from news comments and provides a multi-label classification using 1 to 4 labels, and handles subjectivity and intersectionality. We evaluate strong baseline experiments on K-MHaS using Korean-BERT-based language models with six different metrics. KR-BERT with a sub-character tokenizer outperforms others, recognizing decomposed characters in each hate speech class.Comment: Accepted by COLING 202

    Full text link
    We report details on the axion dark matter search experiment that uses the innovative technologies of a High-Temperature Superconducting (HTS) magnet and a Josephson Parametric Converter (JPC). An 18 T HTS solenoid magnet is developed for this experiment. The JPC is used as the first stage amplifier to achieve a near quantum-limited low-noise condition. The first dark matter axion search was performed with the 18 T axion haloscope. The scan frequency range is from 4.7789 GHz to 4.8094 GHz (30.5 MHz range). No significant signal consistent with Galactic dark matter axion is observed. Our results set the best limit of the axion-photon-photon coupling (gaγγg_{a\gamma\gamma}) in the axion mass range of 19.764 to 19.890 μ\mueV. Using the Bayesian method, the upper bounds of gaγγg_{a\gamma\gamma} are set at 0.98×gaγγKSVZ\times|g_{a\gamma\gamma}^{\text{KSVZ}}| (1.11×gaγγKSVZ\times|g_{a\gamma\gamma}^{\text{KSVZ}}|) in the mass ranges of 19.764 to 19.771 μ\mueV (19.863 to 19.890 μ\mueV), and at 1.76 ×gaγγKSVZ\times|g_{a\gamma\gamma}^{\text{KSVZ}}| in the mass ranges of 19.772 to 19.863 μ\mueV with 90\% confidence level, respectively. We report design, construction, operation, and data analysis of the 18 T axion haloscope experiment.Comment: PRD published versio

    Thermal Hall effects due to topological spin fluctuations in YMnO_3

    The thermal Hall effect in magnetic insulators has been considered a powerful method for examining the topological nature of charge-neutral quasiparticles such as magnons. Yet, unlike the kagome system, the triangular lattice has received less attention for studying the thermal Hall effect because the scalar spin chirality cancels out between adjacent triangles. However, such cancellation cannot be perfect if the triangular lattice is distorted. Here, we report that the trimerized triangular lattice of multiferroic hexagonal manganite YMnO3 produces a highly unusual thermal Hall effect under an applied magnetic field. Our theoretical calculations demonstrate that the thermal Hall conductivity is related to the splitting of the otherwise degenerate two chiralities of its 120˚ magnetic structure. Our result is one of the most unusual cases of topological physics due to this broken Z2 symmetry of the chirality in the supposedly paramagnetic state of YMnO3, due to strong topological spin fluctuations with the additional intricacy of a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

    Singular Hall response from a correlated ferromagnetic flat nodal-line semimetal

    Full text link
    Topological quantum phases have been largely understood in weakly correlated systems, which have identified various quantum phenomena such as spin Hall effect, protected transport of helical fermions, and topological superconductivity. Robust ferromagnetic order in correlated topological materials particularly attracts attention, as it can provide a versatile platform for novel quantum devices. Here, we report singular Hall response arising from a unique band structure of flat topological nodal lines in combination with electron correlation in an itinerant, van der Waals ferromagnetic semimetal, Fe3GaTe2, with a high Curie temperature of Tc=360 K. High anomalous Hall conductivity violating the conventional scaling, resistivity upturn at low temperature, and a large Sommerfeld coefficient are observed in Fe3GaTe2, which implies heavy fermion features in this ferromagnetic topological material. Our circular dichroism in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and theoretical calculations support the original electronic features in the material. Thus, low-dimensional Fe3GaTe2 with electronic correlation, topology, and room-temperature ferromagnetic order appears to be a promising candidate for robust quantum devices

    ITDetect: a method to detect internal tandem duplication of FMS-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3) from next-generation sequencing data with high sensitivity and clinical application

    Get PDF
    Abstract Internal tandem duplication (ITD) of the FMS-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3) gene is associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Although recent methods for detecting FLT3-ITD from next-generation sequencing (NGS) data have replaced traditional ITD detection approaches such as conventional PCR or fragment analysis, their use in the clinical field is still limited and requires further information. Here, we introduce ITDetect, an efficient FLT3-ITD detection approach that uses NGS data. Our proposed method allows for more precise detection and provides more detailed information than existing in silico methods. Further, it enables FLT3-ITD detection from exome sequencing or targeted panel sequencing data, thereby improving its clinical application. We validated the performance of ITDetect using NGS-based and experimental ITD detection methods and successfully demonstrated that ITDetect provides the highest concordance with the experimental methods. The program and data underlying this study are available in a public repository

    Impact of opioid-free analgesia on pain severity and patient satisfaction after discharge from surgery: multispecialty, prospective cohort study in 25 countries

    Background: Balancing opioid stewardship and the need for adequate analgesia following discharge after surgery is challenging. This study aimed to compare the outcomes for patients discharged with opioid versus opioid-free analgesia after common surgical procedures.Methods: This international, multicentre, prospective cohort study collected data from patients undergoing common acute and elective general surgical, urological, gynaecological, and orthopaedic procedures. The primary outcomes were patient-reported time in severe pain measured on a numerical analogue scale from 0 to 100% and patient-reported satisfaction with pain relief during the first week following discharge. Data were collected by in-hospital chart review and patient telephone interview 1 week after discharge.Results: The study recruited 4273 patients from 144 centres in 25 countries; 1311 patients (30.7%) were prescribed opioid analgesia at discharge. Patients reported being in severe pain for 10 (i.q.r. 1-30)% of the first week after discharge and rated satisfaction with analgesia as 90 (i.q.r. 80-100) of 100. After adjustment for confounders, opioid analgesia on discharge was independently associated with increased pain severity (risk ratio 1.52, 95% c.i. 1.31 to 1.76; P < 0.001) and re-presentation to healthcare providers owing to side-effects of medication (OR 2.38, 95% c.i. 1.36 to 4.17; P = 0.004), but not with satisfaction with analgesia (beta coefficient 0.92, 95% c.i. -1.52 to 3.36; P = 0.468) compared with opioid-free analgesia. Although opioid prescribing varied greatly between high-income and low- and middle-income countries, patient-reported outcomes did not.Conclusion: Opioid analgesia prescription on surgical discharge is associated with a higher risk of re-presentation owing to side-effects of medication and increased patient-reported pain, but not with changes in patient-reported satisfaction. Opioid-free discharge analgesia should be adopted routinely
