TL;DR: In this paper, in order to detect and describe the real time urban emergency event, the 5W (What, Where, When, Who, and Why) model is proposed and results show the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.
Abstract: Crowdsourcing is a process of acquisition, integration, and analysis of big and heterogeneous data generated by a diversity of sources in urban spaces, such as sensors, devices, vehicles, buildings, and human. Especially, nowadays, no countries, no communities, and no person are immune to urban emergency events. Detection about urban emergency events, e.g., fires, storms, traffic jams is of great importance to protect the security of humans. Recently, social media feeds are rapidly emerging as a novel platform for providing and dissemination of information that is often geographic. The content from social media usually includes references to urban emergency events occurring at, or affecting specific locations. In this paper, in order to detect and describe the real time urban emergency event, the 5W (What, Where, When, Who, and Why) model is proposed. Firstly, users of social media are set as the target of crowd sourcing. Secondly, the spatial and temporal information from the social media are extracted to detect the real time event. Thirdly, a GIS based annotation of the detected urban emergency event is shown. The proposed method is evaluated with extensive case studies based on real urban emergency events. The results show the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method.

TL;DR: In this paper, an atomically dispersed Au1 catalyst is synthesized and applied in electrochemical synthesis of ammonia under ambient conditions, achieving a high NH4+ Faradaic efficiency of 11.1%.
Abstract: Tremendous efforts have been devoted to explore energy-efficient strategies of ammonia synthesis to replace Haber-Bosch process which accounts for 1.4% of the annual energy consumption. In this study, atomically dispersed Au1 catalyst is synthesized and applied in electrochemical synthesis of ammonia under ambient conditions. A high NH4+ Faradaic efficiency of 11.1% achieved by our Au1 catalyst surpasses most of reported catalysts under comparable conditions. Benefiting from efficient atom utilization, an NH4+ yield rate of 1,305 μg h−1 mgAu−1 has been reached, which is roughly 22.5 times as high as that by supported Au nanoparticles. We also demonstrate that by employing our Au1 catalyst, NH4+ can be electrochemically produced directly from N2 and H2 with an energy utilization rate of 4.02 mmol kJ−1. Our study provides a possibility of replacing the Haber-Bosch process with environmentally benign and energy-efficient electrochemical strategies.

TL;DR: In this article, an electrocatalyst consisting of sub-nanometric Pt clusters uniformly dispersed on a TiO2 support was developed for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), which exhibited significantly enhanced catalytic activity and enhanced stability compared with the state-of-the-art commercial Pt/C catalysts.
Abstract: In the present work, we synthesized and characterized an electrocatalyst consisting of sub-nanometric Pt clusters uniformly dispersed on a TiO2 support. X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and X-ray adsorption fine structure (XAFS) data demonstrate that these sub-nanometric Pt clusters are in a highly oxidized state and possess two localized Pt–O coordination structures. The Pt–O bonds between the oxidized Pt clusters and the TiO2 give rise to a strong metal–support interaction (SMSI). When applied to the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), this catalyst exhibits significantly enhanced catalytic activity (increased by a factor of up to 8.4) and enhanced stability compared with the state-of-the-art commercial Pt/C catalysts. Particularly, the additional XPS and XAFS characterizations of the catalyst after long-term electrolysis demonstrate the absence of metallic Pt species, confirming that the catalytic active site comes from the oxidized Pt clusters rather than from the the metallic Pt species. This improved performance is considered to be induced by the unique electronic structure of the oxidized Pt clusters and by the SMSI. Based on the results of density functional theory calculations, the 5d orbital of the oxidized Pt cluster atoms appears to hybridize with the H 1s orbital to form weak Pt–H valence bonds, leading to a ΔG (relative free energy) value of approximately zero eV for H* absorption. This effect explains the mechanism responsible for the excellent catalytic activity of these oxidized Pt clusters for the HER. This work therefore provides important insights into the role of oxidized Pt clusters as an HER electrocatalyst. The evident stabilization of the oxidized Pt clusters on TiO2 supports via the charge-transfer mechanism provides a useful approach for improving the durability of electrocatalysts that may be applicable to other noble metal/support systems.

TL;DR: By modifying the shapes of the Raman pulses, this work theoretically proposes and experimentally demonstrates a shortcut-to-adiabatic protocol that is robust against control parameter variations and provides an efficient and practical way to control quantum systems.
Abstract: Accurate control of a quantum system is a fundamental requirement in many areas of modern science ranging from quantum information processing to high-precision measurements. A significantly important goal in quantum control is preparing a desired state as fast as possible, with sufficiently high fidelity allowed by available resources and experimental constraints. Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) is a robust way to realize high-fidelity state transfer but it requires a sufficiently long operation time to satisfy the adiabatic criteria. Here we theoretically propose and then experimentally demonstrate a shortcut-to-adiabatic protocol to speed-up the STIRAP. By modifying the shapes of the Raman pulses, we experimentally realize a fast and high-fidelity stimulated Raman shortcut-to-adiabatic passage that is robust against control parameter variations. The all-optical, robust and fast protocol demonstrated here provides an efficient and practical way to control quantum systems.
