We study the dependence of the exposure required to directly detect a WIMP directional recoil signal on the capabilities of a directional detector. Specifically we consider variations in the nuclear recoil energy threshold, the background rate, whether the detector measures the recoil momentum vector in 2 or 3 dimensions and whether or not the sense of the momentum vector can be determined. We ...

In this paper new techniques for optimizing instance retrieval in DL systems are described. The algorithms are evaluated with application examples from a natural language processing application.
