Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis Using a Two-Step Neural Network Architecture
The World Wide Web holds a wealth of information in the form of unstructured
texts such as customer reviews for products, events and more. By extracting and
analyzing the expressed opinions in customer reviews in a fine-grained way,
valuable opportunities and insights for customers and businesses can be gained.
We propose a neural network based system to address the task of Aspect-Based
Sentiment Analysis to compete in Task 2 of the ESWC-2016 Challenge on Semantic
Sentiment Analysis. Our proposed architecture divides the task in two subtasks:
aspect term extraction and aspect-specific sentiment extraction. This approach
is flexible in that it allows to address each subtask independently. As a first
step, a recurrent neural network is used to extract aspects from a text by
framing the problem as a sequence labeling task. In a second step, a recurrent
network processes each extracted aspect with respect to its context and
predicts a sentiment label. The system uses pretrained semantic word embedding
features which we experimentally enhance with semantic knowledge extracted from
WordNet. Further features extracted from SenticNet prove to be beneficial for
the extraction of sentiment labels. As the best performing system in its
category, our proposed system proves to be an effective approach for the

Robust optimization with probabilistic constraints for power-efficient and secure SWIPT
In this paper, we propose beamforming schemes to simultaneously transmit data to multiple information receivers (IRs) while transfering power wirelessly to multiple energy harvesting receivers (ERs). Taking into account the imperfection of the instantaneous channel state information, we introduce a probabilistic-constrained optimization problem to minimize the total transmit power while guaranteeing data transmission reliability, secure data transmission, and power transfer reliability. As the proposed optimization problem is non-convex and has an infinite number of constraints, we propose two robust reformulations of the original problem adopting safe-convex-approximation techniques. The derived robust formulations are in semidefinite programming forms, hence, they can be effectively solved by standard convex optimization packages. Simulation results confirm the superiority of the proposed approaches to a baseline scheme in guaranteeing transmission security
Robust chance-constrained optimization for power-efficient and secure SWIPT systems
In this paper, we propose beamforming schemes to simultaneously transmit data securely to multiple information receivers (IRs) while transferring power wirelessly to multiple energy-harvesting receivers (ERs). Taking into account the imperfection of the instantaneous channel state information (CSI), we introduce a chance-constrained optimization problem to minimize the total transmit power while guaranteeing data transmission reliability, data transmission security, and power transfer reliability. As the proposed optimization problem is non-convex due to the chance constraints, we propose two robust reformulations of the original problem based on safe-convex-approximation techniques. Subsequently, applying semidefinite programming relaxation (SDR), the derived robust reformulations can be effectively solved by standard convex optimization packages. We show that the adopted SDR is tight and thus the globally optimal solutions of the reformulated problems can be recovered. Simulation results confirm the superiority of the proposed methods in guaranteeing transmission security compared to a baseline scheme. Furthermore, the performance of proposed methods can closely follow that of a benchmark scheme where perfect CSI is available for resource allocation
Flow probe of symmetry energy in relativistic heavy-ion reactions
Flow observables in heavy-ion reactions at incident energies up to about 1
GeV per nucleon have been shown to be very useful for investigating the
reaction dynamics and for determining the parameters of reaction models based
on transport theory. In particular, the elliptic flow in collisions of
neutron-rich heavy-ion systems emerges as an observable sensitive to the
strength of the symmetry energy at supra-saturation densities. The comparison
of ratios or differences of neutron and proton flows or neutron and hydrogen
flows with predictions of transport models favors an approximately linear
density dependence, consistent with ab-initio nuclear-matter theories.
Extensive parameter searches have shown that the model dependence is comparable
to the uncertainties of existing experimental data. Comprehensive new flow data
of high accuracy, partly also through providing stronger constraints on model
parameters, can thus be expected to improve our knowledge of the equation of
state of asymmetric nuclear matter.Comment: 20 pages, 24 figures, review to appear in EPJA special volume on

Gamma-Ray Bursts as a Probe of the Very High Redshift Universe
We show that, if many GRBs are indeed produced by the collapse of massive
stars, GRBs and their afterglows provide a powerful probe of the very high
redshift (z > 5) universe.Comment: To appear in Proc. of the 5th Huntsville Gamma-Ray Burst Symposium, 5

Detection of CO+ in the nucleus of M82
We present the detection of the reactive ion CO+ towards the prototypical
starburst galaxy M82. This is the first secure detection of this short-lived
ion in an external galaxy. Values of [CO+]/[HCO+]>0.04 are measured across the
inner 650pc of the nuclear disk of M82. Such high values of the [CO+]/[HCO+]
ratio had only been previously measured towards the atomic peak in the
reflection nebula NGC7023. This detection corroborates that the molecular gas
reservoir in the M82 disk is heavily affected by the UV radiation from the
recently formed stars. Comparing the column densities measured in M82 with
those found in prototypical Galactic photon-dominated regions (PDRs), we need
\~20 clouds along the line of sight to explain our observations. We have
completed our model of the molecular gas chemistry in the M82 nucleus. Our PDR
chemical model successfully explains the [CO+]/[HCO+] ratios measured in the
M~82 nucleus but fails by one order of magnitude to explain the large measured
CO+ column densities (~1--4x10^{13} cm^{-2}). We explore possible routes to
reconcile the chemical model and the observations.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figure
Incommensurate phonon anomaly and the nature of charge density waves in cuprates
While charge density wave (CDW) instabilities are ubiquitous to
superconducting cuprates, the different ordering wavevectors in various cuprate
families have hampered a unified description of the CDW formation mechanism.
Here we investigate the temperature dependence of the low energy phonons in the
canonical CDW ordered cuprate LaBaCuO. We discover
that the phonon softening wavevector associated with CDW correlations becomes
temperature dependent in the high-temperature precursor phase and changes from
a wavevector of 0.238 reciprocal space units (r.l.u.) below the ordering
transition temperature up to 0.3~r.l.u. at 300~K. This high-temperature
behavior shows that "214"-type cuprates can host CDW correlations at a similar
wavevector to previously reported CDW correlations in non-"214"-type cuprates
such as YBaCuO. This indicates that cuprate CDWs may
arise from the same underlying instability despite their apparently different
low temperature ordering wavevectors.Comment: Accepted in Phys. Rev. X; 9 pages; 5 figures; 3 pages of
