TL;DR: The Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) preprocessing algorithm is considered "de facto" standard in the framework of learning from imbalanced data because of its simplicity in the design, as well as its robustness when applied to different type of problems.
Abstract: The Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) preprocessing algorithm is considered "de facto" standard in the framework of learning from imbalanced data. This is due to its simplicity in the design of the procedure, as well as its robustness when applied to different type of problems. Since its publication in 2002, SMOTE has proven successful in a variety of applications from several different domains. SMOTE has also inspired several approaches to counter the issue of class imbalance, and has also significantly contributed to new supervised learning paradigms, including multilabel classification, incremental learning, semi-supervised learning, multi-instance learning, among others. It is standard benchmark for learning from imbalanced data. It is also featured in a number of different software packages -- from open source to commercial. In this paper, marking the fifteen year anniversary of SMOTE, we reect on the SMOTE journey, discuss the current state of affairs with SMOTE, its applications, and also identify the next set of challenges to extend SMOTE for Big Data problems.

TL;DR: L'histoire de Bacillus thuringiensis var.
Abstract: L'histoire de Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis. Il a ete isole en 1976, pres du Kibbutz Zeelim, desert du Negev, Israel, par Tahori et Margalit, a partir d'une mare ou de nombreuses larves de Culex pipiens mortes ou agonisantes avaient ete remarquees. L'activite de cette souche isolee, ONR 60A sur Aedes, Culex, Anopheles et Uranotaenia a ete precisee par Goldberg et Margalit en 1976. Elle a ete identifiee par H. de Bayac au laboratoire de reference de l'institut Pasteur a Paris: B. t. i. serotype H14

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that long-duration γ-ray bursts are associated with the most extremely massive stars and may be restricted to galaxies of limited chemical evolution. But they also show that the host galaxies of the long-drone bursts are significantly fainter and more irregular than the hosts of the core-collapse supernovae.
Abstract: When massive stars exhaust their fuel, they collapse and often produce the extraordinarily bright explosions known as core-collapse supernovae. On occasion, this stellar collapse also powers an even more brilliant relativistic explosion known as a long-duration γ-ray burst. One would then expect that these long γ-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae should be found in similar galactic environments. Here we show that this expectation is wrong. We find that the γ-ray bursts are far more concentrated in the very brightest regions of their host galaxies than are the core-collapse supernovae. Furthermore, the host galaxies of the long γ-ray bursts are significantly fainter and more irregular than the hosts of the core-collapse supernovae. Together these results suggest that long-duration γ-ray bursts are associated with the most extremely massive stars and may be restricted to galaxies of limited chemical evolution. Our results directly imply that long γ-ray bursts are relatively rare in galaxies such as our own Milky Way.

TL;DR: In this paper, a tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB)-capped metal nanoparticles on TiO2 films improved the photocurrent generation and induced a shift in the apparent flat band potential.
Abstract: Noble metal particles of Au, Pt, and Ir were deposited on nanostructured TiO2 film using an electrophoretic approach. The nanocomposite films were characterized by UV-absorption and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The deposition of tetraoctylammonium bromide (TOAB)-capped metal nanoparticles on TiO2 films improved the photocurrent generation and induced a shift in the apparent flat band potential. The TiO2 films modified with TOAB-capped metal nanoparticles were less prone to the electron scavenging by the oxygen in solution. Improved photoelectrochemical performance of semiconductor−metal composite film is attributed to the shift in quasi-Fermi level of the composite to more negative potentials. Continuous irradiation of the composite films over a long period causes photocurrent to decrease as the semiconductor−metal interface undergoes chemical changes. The role of semiconductor−metal composite films in improving the rate of photocatalytic degradation of an azo dye is also discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the solubility of nine different gases in 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate was investigated.
Abstract: This work presents the solubility of nine different gases in 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate. The gases considered include carbon dioxide, ethylene, ethane, methane, argon, oxygen, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and nitrogen. We also report the associated Henry's constants and enthalpies and entropies of absorption. We found carbon dioxide to have the highest solubility and strongest interactions with the ionic liquid, followed by ethylene and ethane. Argon and oxygen had very low solubilities and immeasurably weak interactions. Carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and nitrogen all had solubilities below the detection limit of our apparatus. Our results suggest that the mass transfer of gases into ionic liquids likely will be an important issue for reactions involving these gases. We also determined that ionic liquids show good potential for use as a gas-separation medium.
