Character-Aware Neural Language Models
We describe a simple neural language model that relies only on
character-level inputs. Predictions are still made at the word-level. Our model
employs a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a highway network over
characters, whose output is given to a long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent
neural network language model (RNN-LM). On the English Penn Treebank the model
is on par with the existing state-of-the-art despite having 60% fewer
parameters. On languages with rich morphology (Arabic, Czech, French, German,
Spanish, Russian), the model outperforms word-level/morpheme-level LSTM
baselines, again with fewer parameters. The results suggest that on many
languages, character inputs are sufficient for language modeling. Analysis of
word representations obtained from the character composition part of the model
reveals that the model is able to encode, from characters only, both semantic
and orthographic information.Comment: AAAI 201
Thermostructural applications of heat pipes
The feasibility of integrating heat pipes in high temperature structure to reduce local hot spot temperature was evaluated for a variety of hypersonic aerospace vehicles. From an initial list of twenty-two potential applications, the single stage to orbit wing leading edge showed the greatest promise and was selected for preliminary design of an integrated heat pipe thermostructural system. The design consisted of a Hastelloy X assembly with sodium heat pipe passages aligned normal to the wing leading edge. A d-shaped heat pipe cross section was determined to be optimum from the standpoint of structural weight

Complete Genome Sequence of a Divergent Human Rhinovirus C Isolate from an Infant with Severe Community-Acquired Pneumonia in Colorado, USA.
Here, we report the genome sequence of a divergent human rhinovirus C isolate identified from an infant with a severe community-acquired respiratory infection. RNA sequencing performed on an Illumina platform identified reads aligning to human rhinovirus species, which were de novo assembled to produce a coding-complete genome sequence
