Crystallization-induced self-assembly of poly(ethylene glycol) side chains in dithiol–yne-based comb polymers: side chain spacing and molecular weight effects
(ACS, 2024-05)
The chain architecture and topology of macromolecules impact their physical properties and final performance, including their crystallization process. In this work, comb polymers constituted by poly(ethylene glycol), PEG, ...
Competition between O–H and S–H intermolecular interactions in conformationally complex systems: The 2-Phenylethanethiol and 2-Phenylethanol dimers
(ACS, 2024-05)
Noncovalent interactions involving sulfur centers play a relevant role in biological and chemical environments. Yet, detailed molecular descriptions are scarce and limited to very simple model systems. Here we explore the ...
Emissions generated by electric vehicles in the 9-500 kHz band: Characterization, propagation, and interaction
(Elsevier, 2024-06)
Electric Vehicle Charging Processes (EVCPs), due to the involved power electronics with high-switching frequencies, generate high-amplitude emissions that could have a negative impact on Power Quality (PQ) and Narrowband ...
Enhanced photosynthesis, transpiration regulation, water use-efficiency and growth in buckwheat outperforms wheat response to high [CO2], high temperature and drought
(Elsevier, 2024-06)
The rising atmospheric [CO2] levels will increase global temperature and drought events, threatening wheat (Triticum aestivum) production. In recent years, buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) has emerged as an alternative ...
Interpretable semantic textual similarity: Finding and explaining differences between sentences
(Elsevier, 2016-12-12)
User acceptance of artificial intelligence agents might depend on their ability to explain their reasoning to the users. We focus on a specific text processing task, the Semantic Textual Similarity task (STS), where systems ...
Semeval-2017 task 1: Semantic textual similarity-multilingual and cross-lingual focused evaluation
(ACL, 2017-08)
Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) measures the meaning similarity of sentences. Applications include machine translation (MT), summarization, generation, question answering (QA), short answer grading, semantic search, ...
Uncovering divergent linguistic information in word embeddings with lessons for intrinsic and extrinsic evaluation
(ACL, 2018)
Following the recent success of word embeddings, it has been argued that there is no such thing as an ideal representation for words, as different models tend to capture divergent and often mutually incompatible aspects ...
Measurements of Impulsive Noise From Specific Sources in Medium Wave Band
(IEEE, 2014-06-23)
This letter presents the results of impulsive noise measurements in an indoor environment in the Medium Wave band. The studied channels are centered at 630, 675, 1035, 1620, 1720, and 1910 kHz. In this study, the noise ...
The role of competitive strategy in the performance impact of exploitation and exploration quality management practices
(Emerald, 2020-04-09)
Purpose– This study aims to advance understanding about quality management (QM) practices by clarifying how competitive strategy conditions the impacts of exploitative and explorative QM practices on performance.

Customizing competitive strategy to entry timing: Implications for firm performance in the pharmaceutical industry
(Wiley, 2020-04-23)
Our study examines the effect of business-level strategy on performance. Past
literature examining the aforementioned effect in the pharmaceutical industry is
scarce. Furthermore, there is a lack of studies that analyze ...
