      Lakes are key ecosystems within the global biogeosphere. However, the environmental controls on the biological productivity of lakes – including surface temperature, ice phenology, nutrient loads, and mixing regime – are ...
    • Global-connected network with generalized ReLU activation 

      Chen, Zhi; Ho, Pin-Han (Elsevier, 2019-12)
      Recent Progress has shown that exploitation of hidden layer neurons in convolutional neural networks (CNN) incorporating with a carefully designed activation function can yield better classification results in the field ...

      With the fast growth of cancer research, new analytical methods are needed to measure anticancer drugs. This is usually accomplished by using sophisticated analytical instruments. Biosensors are attractive candidates for ...
    • Goal Progress Velocity as a Determinant of Shortcut Behaviors 

      Phan, Vincent; Nishioka, Midori; Beck, James W.; Scholer, Abigail A. (American Psychological Association, 2023-04)
      Employees often have a great deal of work to accomplish within stringent deadlines. Therefore, employees may engage in shortcut behaviors, which involve eschewing standard procedures during goal pursuit to save time. ...
    • Gold nanoparticles as dehydrogenase mimicking nanozymes for estradiol degradation 

      Zhang, Zijie; Bragg, Leslie M.; Servos, Mark R.; Liu, Juewen (Elsevier, 2019-09)
