Extroverts Tweet Differently from Introverts in Weibo
Being dominant factors driving the human actions, personalities can be
excellent indicators in predicting the offline and online behavior of different
individuals. However, because of the great expense and inevitable subjectivity
in questionnaires and surveys, it is challenging for conventional studies to
explore the connection between personality and behavior and gain insights in
the context of large amount individuals. Considering the more and more
important role of the online social media in daily communications, we argue
that the footprint of massive individuals, like tweets in Weibo, can be the
inspiring proxy to infer the personality and further understand its functions
in shaping the online human behavior. In this study, a map from self-reports of
personalities to online profiles of 293 active users in Weibo is established to
train a competent machine learning model, which then successfully identifies
over 7,000 users as extroverts or introverts. Systematical comparisons from
perspectives of tempo-spatial patterns, online activities, emotion expressions
and attitudes to virtual honor surprisingly disclose that the extrovert indeed
behaves differently from the introvert in Weibo. Our findings provide solid
evidence to justify the methodology of employing machine learning to
objectively study personalities of massive individuals and shed lights on
applications of probing personalities and corresponding behaviors solely
through online profiles.Comment: Datasets of this study can be freely downloaded through:

Molybdenum complexes derived from the oxydianiline [(2-NH₂C₆H₄)₂O] : synthesis, characterization and ε-caprolactone ROP capability
The reaction of Na₂MoO₄ with 2,2′-oxydianiline (2-aminophenylether), (2-NH₂C₆H₄)₂O, LH₄, in DME (DME = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) in the presence of Et₃N and Me₃SiCl afforded either the bis(imido) molybdenum(VI) complex {Mo(L)Cl₂(DME)} (1), where L = (2-NC₆H₄)₂O, or the molybdenum(V) salt [Mo(L′)Cl₄][Et₃NH] (2), where L′ = [(2-NH₂C₆H₄)(2-NC₆H₄)O], depending on the work-up method employed. The same diamine reacted with in situ [Mo(NtBu)₂Cl₂(DME)] afforded a tetra-nuclear complex [Mo₄Cl₃(NtBu)₃(OSiMe₃)(μ₄-O)(L)₂(L′)₂]·2MeCN (3·2MeCN). The crystal structures of 1, 2 and 3·2MeCN have been determined. The structure of the bis(imido) complex 1 contains two unique molecules paired up via weak π-stacking, whereas the structure of 2 contains a chelating amine/imido ligand, and is made up of discrete units of two cations and two anions which are interacting via H-bonding. The tetra-nuclear structure 3 contains four different types of distorted octahedral molybdenum centre, and a bent Me₃SiO group thought to originate from the precursor synthesis. Complexes 1–3 have been screened for their ability to ring open polymerize (ROP) ε-caprolactone. For 1 and 3 (not 2), conversion rates were good (>90%) at high temperatures (100 °C) over 6–24 h, and the polymerization proceeded in a living manner
Acoustic guiding and subwavelength imaging with sharp bending by sonic crystal
A sharp bending scheme for the self-collimation of acoustic waves is proposed
by simply truncating the sonic crystals. An all-angle and wide-band
90{\deg}-bending wave guide is demonstrated with nearly perfect transmissions
for Gaussian beams at a wide range of incident angles. A 90{\deg}-bended
imaging for a point source with a subwavelength resolution of 0 0.37{\lambda}
is also realized by the proposed structure. These results will find
applicability in the manipulation of acoustic waves by sonic crystals.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
