The practical application of Li-rich cathode materials exhibiting higher energy density with oxygen redox activity requires improved cycle performance and efficiency. Since several conditions such as the amount excess lithium, transition metal species, cutoff voltage influence electrochemical properties materials, comprehensive determination optimal often rely on repeating empirical try error p...

Although deep learning has achieved satisfactory performance in computer vision, a large volume of images is required. However, collecting often expensive and challenging. Many image augmentation algorithms have been proposed to alleviate this issue. Understanding existing is, therefore, essential for finding suitable developing novel methods given task. In study, we perform comprehensive surve...

We estimate the equity premium using CDS spreads and structural models of default. Our estimates yield equity premia of 6.50% (U.S.), 5.44% (Europe) and 6.21% (Asia) based on 5year CDS spreads from 2003-2007. Due to some conservative assumptions these estimates are upper limits for the equity premium. Using 3-, 7and 10-year CDS maturities yields similar results and o ers an opportunity to estim...

Defining Nanotechnology A nanometer is small. Very small. To be precise, a typical sheet of paper is 100,000 nanometers thick. Nearly 50 years ago, Richard Feynman gave a famous speech [1] in which the idea of nanotechnology was first envisioned. In it, he famously asked, “What would happen if we could arrange the atoms one by one the way we want them?” It took thirty years for microscopes to b...
