TL;DR: In this article, the spectral width of second-harmonic light scattering has been measured for a number of liquids, including carbon tetrachloride, and it was shown that a totally symmetric nonlinear-susceptibility tensor produces elastic harmonic light scattering characterized by just the first and third-degree spherical elements of the tensor.
Abstract: The spectral width of "elastic" second-harmonic light scattering has been measured for a number of liquids. The broadening arises principally from rotational molecular motions and, ignoring possible nonadditive molecule-molecule interactions, the spectrum is shown to be related to the Fourier transform of the orientation-dependent pair distribution function $G(\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}, \stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\ensuremath{\Omega}}, t)$. An irreducible spherical-tensor representation is employed. It is shown that a totally symmetric nonlinear-susceptibility tensor produces elastic harmonic light scattering characterized by just the first- and third-degree spherical elements of $G(\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}, \stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\ensuremath{\Omega}}, t)$ and that the corresponding spectra may be independently determined. For Brownian orientational motion, these comprise Lorentzians whose widths are related to the tensorial orientational-diffusion coefficient. For isotropic orientational diffusion, the widths are in the ratio 1: 6. Dielectric-relaxation and depolarized Rayleigh scattering also relate to $G(\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}, \stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\ensuremath{\Omega}}, t)$, and the results of all three experiments are compared. In no instance was isotropic orientational diffusion found to be a satisfactory model. A more extended study was made of carbon tetrachloride. Evidence was found both for nonadditive response and for coherent effects resulting from short-range orientational ordering. The extremely weak signals - often less than one photoevent per laser firing - necessitated development of a reliable high-repetition-rate $Q$-switched ruby laser and use of electronic data-accumulation techniques.

21 Jul 2017TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel Convolutional Neural Network-based framework, ranking-CNN, for age estimation, which significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art age estimation models on benchmark datasets and rigorously proves that it is more likely to get smaller estimation errors when compared with multi-class classification approaches.
Abstract: Human age is considered an important biometric trait for human identification or search. Recent research shows that the aging features deeply learned from large-scale data lead to significant performance improvement on facial image-based age estimation. However, age-related ordinal information is totally ignored in these approaches. In this paper, we propose a novel Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based framework, ranking-CNN, for age estimation. Ranking-CNN contains a series of basic CNNs, each of which is trained with ordinal age labels. Then, their binary outputs are aggregated for the final age prediction. We theoretically obtain a much tighter error bound for ranking-based age estimation. Moreover, we rigorously prove that ranking-CNN is more likely to get smaller estimation errors when compared with multi-class classification approaches. Through extensive experiments, we show that statistically, ranking-CNN significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art age estimation models on benchmark datasets.

TL;DR: In this paper, various types of combustion-related particles in the size range between 100 and 850nm were analyzed with an aerosol mass spectrometer and a differential mobility analyzer, which yielded a fractal dimension (D f ) of 2.09 ± 0.06 for biomass burning particles from the combustion of dry beech sticks, but showed values around three, and hence more compact particle morphologies, for particles from combustion of more natural oak.

11 Dec 1996TL;DR: In this paper, a vehicle user can request emergency or roadside assistance from a response center by activating a button in the vehicle and the global positioning system is used to continuously store the vehicle location.
Abstract: A vehicle user can request emergency or roadside assistance from a response center by activating a button in the vehicle. The global positioning system is used to continuously store the vehicle location. A cellular telephone network is used to contact a response center and transfer a data string via modem containing information to assist the response center in acting on the request. If a first attempt to contact the response center at a phone number for receiving a data transfer is unsuccessful, a second call is made to a different number bypassing the data transfer and immediately placing the cellular phone into an unmuted condition. This allows the user to hear and interact with a cellular operator, if necessary, prior to being connected to the response center.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the existence of a “preictal” stage (immediately preceding seizure) of some minutes duration is quite feasible, and recurrent neural networks combined with signal wavelet decomposition is applied to the problem.
