A model to automatically identify the sentiment polarity of specific words in written texts
In recent years, computer scientists have been trying to develop effective models for sentiment analysis. These models are designed to analyze sentences or longer texts and autonomously determine...
The DarkSide experiment extends its search to dark matter–nucleon interactions
The DarkSide experiment is an ambitious research effort aimed at detecting dark matter particle interactions in liquid argon using a dual-phase physics detector located at the underground Gran Sasso...
Exploring the mechanisms underpinning individual differences in autism spectrum disorder using machine learning
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder associated with difficulties in interacting with others, repetitive behaviors, restricted interests and other symptoms that can impact...
Low-pass filters based on thin films of van der Waals ferromagnets
Two-dimensional (2D) magnets, also known as magnetic van der Waals materials, have advantageous electrical and mechanical properties, such as antiferromagnetic or ferromagnetism. These properties...
Study demonstrates the non-volatile electrical control of a 2D magnetic insulator using a thin ferroelectric polymer
Two-dimensional (2D) magnetic insulators, which are electrically insulating materials with long-range magnetic order, could be used to fabricate compact magneto-electric or magneto-optical devices....
The comprehensive characterization of hydrogen at ultra-high pressures
Physicists and material scientists have been trying to metallize hydrogen for many decades, but they have not yet succeeded. In 1968, British physicist Neil Ashcroft predicted that atomic metallic...
Electromechanical resonators operating at sub-terahertz frequencies
To further advance communication systems, increasing both their speed and efficiency, electronics engineers will need to create new and highly performing components, including electromechanical...
New experimental evidence of the restoration of chiral symmetry at high matter density
The QCD vacuum (i.e., the ground state of vacuum in the quantum chromodynamics regime) is theoretically characterized by the presence of non-zero expectation values of condensates, such as gluons...
A scalable strategy to synthesize purer and highly performing single-crystal cathodes
Energy engineers and material scientists are continuously trying to create safe battery technologies that exhibit higher energy densities and efficiencies, along with longer life cycles. As...
Study unveils neural processes underpinning the re-emergence of consciousness after anesthesia
Before undergoing surgeries and other invasive medical procedures, patients typically undergo anesthesia. Anesthesia consists in giving patients a class of drugs (i.e., anesthetics) that cause them...
