Design and fabrication of a data logger for atmospheric pressure, temperature and relative humidity for gas-filled detector development
A novel instrument has been developed to monitor and record the ambient pa-
rameters such as temperature, atmospheric pressure and relative humidity. These
parameters are very essential for understanding the characteristics such as
gain of gas filled detectors like Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and Multi Wire
Propor- tional Counter (MWPC). In this article the details of the design,
fabrication and operation processes of the device has been presented.Comment: 11 pages, 12 figure
A new skew-elliptical distribution and its properties
This article generalizes a multivariate skew-elliptical distribution and describes its many interesting properties. The univariate version of the new distribution is compared with two other currently used distributions. The use of the new distribution is illustrated with a real data example suitable for regression modelling. The new model provides a better model fit than its two rivals as evaluated by some suitable Bayesian model selection criteria
Detection of hidden structures on all scales in amorphous materials and complex physical systems: basic notions and applications to networks, lattice systems, and glasses
Recent decades have seen the discovery of numerous complex materials. At the
root of the complexity underlying many of these materials lies a large number
of possible contending atomic- and larger-scale configurations and the
intricate correlations between their constituents. For a detailed
understanding, there is a need for tools that enable the detection of pertinent
structures on all spatial and temporal scales. Towards this end, we suggest a
new method by invoking ideas from network analysis and information theory. Our
method efficiently identifies basic unit cells and topological defects in
systems with low disorder and may analyze general amorphous structures to
identify candidate natural structures where a clear definition of order is
lacking. This general unbiased detection of physical structure does not require
a guess as to which of the system properties should be deemed as important and
may constitute a natural point of departure for further analysis. The method
applies to both static and dynamic systems.Comment: (23 pages, 9 figures
Biomedical Event Trigger Identification Using Bidirectional Recurrent Neural Network Based Models
Biomedical events describe complex interactions between various biomedical
entities. Event trigger is a word or a phrase which typically signifies the
occurrence of an event. Event trigger identification is an important first step
in all event extraction methods. However many of the current approaches either
rely on complex hand-crafted features or consider features only within a
window. In this paper we propose a method that takes the advantage of recurrent
neural network (RNN) to extract higher level features present across the
sentence. Thus hidden state representation of RNN along with word and entity
type embedding as features avoid relying on the complex hand-crafted features
generated using various NLP toolkits. Our experiments have shown to achieve
state-of-art F1-score on Multi Level Event Extraction (MLEE) corpus. We have
also performed category-wise analysis of the result and discussed the
importance of various features in trigger identification task.Comment: The work has been accepted in BioNLP at ACL-201
