Table of Contents

General words

Expand to see all recorded general words...
  • conduct: "The review will be conducted through the above broadened perspectives of human mobility." (Wang et al., 2019)
  • cater: "The present study proposes a universal approach to classifying intra-city tourists, which not only caters to the development of geo-big data but also incorporates the perspective of urban tourism functions." (Park et al., 2023)
  • deviate: "However, training LSTM with maximum likelihood estimation suffers from the exposure bias problem, where the generated samples might deviate from a realistic path with longer sequences." (Kun et al., 2018)

Collocation

  • shed light on: "By examining travel flow interactions in transport systems, it is possible to shed light on the underlying structural characteristic of regions." (Yang et al., 2020)

Adjective

  • arbitrary: "The proposed approach builds on concepts from convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for images and extends them to arbitrary graphs." (Niepert et al., 2016)

Mathematical

  • general
    • quadratic: "While all graph kernels have a training complexity at least quadratic in the number of graphs, which is prohibitive for large-scale problems, PATCHY-SAN scales linearly with the number of graphs." (Niepert et al., 2016)
    • spherical: "The spherical distance can not accurately estimate the expected cost." (Jiang et al., 2023)
  • graph

Algorithm

  • heuristic: "The A* algorithm is a heuristic search algorithm used extensively on the road network." (Jiang et al., 2023)

  • merit: "Both class of methods have their own merits, and transportation system applications require the right methods." (Yu et al., 2019)

Daily life

  • thermal: thermal tumbler, thermal comfort

Report

A spectacular superconductor claim is making news. Here’s why experts are doubtful (ADRIAN CHO, 2023)

  • "This week, social media has been aflutter over a claim for a new superconductor that works not only well above room temperatures, but also at ambient pressure. If true, the discovery would be one of the biggest ever in condensed matter physics and could usher in all sorts of technological marvels, such as levitating vehicles and perfectly efficient electrical grids. ... On the other hand, he says, researchers at Argonne and elsewhere are already trying to replicate the experiment. ... What’s more, the disorder introduced by the doping ought to further suppress superconductivity. ... How will this be sorted out? The big question will be whether anybody can reproduce the observations. ... "

ChatGPT-like AIs are coming to major science search engines (Richard Van Noorden, 2023)

Scopus, Dimensions and Web of Science are introducing conversational AI search.

  • "... Many other AI search engine systems adopt a similar strategy, ... Elsevier has also cut down the unpredictability of its AI by picking a low setting for the bot’s ‘temperature’ — a measure of how often it chooses to deviate from the most plausible words in its response. ... Might users simply copy and paste the bot’s paragraphs into their own papers, effectively plagiarizing the tool? ... Elsevier has so far tackled this with guidance that asks researchers to use the summaries responsibly, he says. Khan points out that funders and publishers have issued similar guidance, asking for transparent disclosure if LLMs are used in, ... a search engine first retrieves relevant articles, ... "

Is Fukushima wastewater release safe? What the science says (Bianca Nogrady, 2023)

Radiation in the water will be diluted to almost-background levels, but some researchers are not sure this will be sufficient to mitigate the risks

  • "... Japan is pressing ahead with plans to release water contaminated by the 2011 meltdown of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean. ... Jim Smith, ..., says the risk this poses to nations around the Pacific Ocean will probably be negligible. ... But Richmond is concerned the tritium could concentrate in the food web as larger organisms eat smaller contaminated ones. ... Shigeyoshi Otosaka says that the organically bound form of tritium could accumulate in fish and marine organisms. ... “We have confirmed that the tritium concentrations in the bodies of marine organisms reach equilibrium after a certain period of time and do not exceed the concentrations in the living environment,” the spokesperson said. ... "

Three ways ChatGPT helps me in my academic writing (Dritjon Gruda, 2023)

Generative AI can be a valuable aid in writing, editing and peer review – if you use it responsibly, says Dritjon Gruda.

  • "... The value that I derive from generative AI is not from the technology itself blindly churning out text, but from engaging with the tool and using my own expertise to refine what it produces. The dialogue between me and the chatbot both enhances the coherence of my work and, over time, teaches me how to describe complex topics in a simper way. ... If something doesn’t quite hit the mark, don’t hesitate to say, “This isn’t quite what I meant. Let’s adjust this part.” Or you can commend its improvements: “This is much clearer, but let’s tweak the ending for a stronger transition to the next section.” ... For instance, ChatGPT excels at explaining and justifying the reasons behind specific limitations that I had identified in my review, which helps me to grasp the broader implications of the study’s contribution. If I identify methodological limitations, ChatGPT can elaborate on these in detail and suggest ways to overcome them in a revision. ... Occasionally, however, its suggestions are off-base, far-fetched, irrelevant or simply wrong. ... ChatGPT has become indispensable in this process, helping me to craft precise, empathetic and actionable feedback without replacing human editorial decisions. ... I’ve found that this approach both enhances the quality of my feedback and helps to guarantee that I convey my thoughts supportively. ... These tools can bolster our capabilities in writing, reviewing and editing. They preserve the essence of scientific inquiry — curiosity, critical thinking and innovation — while improving how we communicate our research. ... "

Book

The Book of Why: The New Science of Cause and Effect (Judea Pearl and Dana Mackenzie, 2018)

  • "Causal inference is all about taking this question seriously. It posits that the human brain is the most advanced tool ever devised for managing causes and effects. Our brains store an incredible amount of causal knowledge which, supplemented by data, we could harness to answer some of the most pressing questions of our time. More ambitiously, once we really understand the logic behind causal thinking, we could emulate it on modern computers and create an “artificial scientist.” This smart robot would discover yet unknown phenomena, find explanations to pending scientific dilemmas, design new experiments, and continually extract more causal knowledge from the environment."
