Imaging non-adherent cells by super-resolution far-field fluorescence microscopy is currently not possible because of their rapid movement while in suspension. Holographic optical tweezers (HOTs) enable the ability to freely control the number and position of optical traps, thus facilitating the unrestricted manipulation of cells in a volume around the focal plane. Here we show that immobilizing ...

Geophysical evidence of a prominent BSR at Vestnesa Ridge and north to the northern flank of the Storegga slide escarpment infer that gas hydrates are ubiquitous within these regions. A wide range of fluid flow structures have previously been discovered from these regions, as well as gas seepage activity from pockmarks on the eastern segment of Vestnesa Ridge. This paper focuses on high-resolution ...

Although quantum neural networks (QNNs) have shown promising results in solving simple machine learning tasks recently, the behavior of QNNs in binary pattern classification is still underexplored. In this work, we find that QNNs have an Achilles’ heel in binary pattern classification. To illustrate this point, we provide a theoretical insight into the properties of QNNs by presenting and analyzing ...

Renewable generation and power flow control are increasing its importance for power systems. The promising development in the technology increases the efficiency for transferring energy. With increasing consumption, remote locations benefit from close laying power production due to reduced transfer losses. In these recent years, energy storage system and local renewable energy production injected ...

The high-power HF (high-frequency) facility (commonly known as Heating) near Tromsø, Norway, which is an essential part of the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association, has been upgraded in certain key areas in recent years. It is one of only four similar facilities in the world operating at present. An updated description of the facility is given, together with scientific motivation and ...

<p>We present a new method of analyzing measurements of mesospheric dust made with DUSTY rocket-borne Faraday cup probes. It can yield the variation in fundamental dust parameters through a mesospheric cloud with an altitude resolution down to 10 cm or less if plasma probes give the plasma density variations with similar height resolution. A DUSTY probe was the first probe that unambiguously detected ...

A new technique for investigating dust charging in the PMSE (polar mesospheric summer echoes) source region is proposed and discussed in this paper. The first high-frequency (HF) modulation of the PMSE with varying pump power was employed during a recent experimental campaign at EISCAT (European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association). Two experiment setups including HF pump power stepping as ...

A polarimetric approach developed to discriminate oil slicks and look-alikes was used to study the polarimetric properties of newly-formed ice (NFI) observed near the Prirazlomnaya oil platform. This approach is based on the multipolarization parameter called Resonant to Non-resonant signal Damping (RND), which is related to the ratio between the ice damping and the short wind waves and wave breakings. ...

Noisy labeled data represent a rich source of information that often are easily accessible and cheap to obtain, but label noise might also have many negative consequences if not accounted for. How to fully utilize noisy labels has been studied extensively within the framework of standard supervised machine learning over a period of several decades. However, very little research has been conducted ...
