Study and Analysis of a Multilayer Multipair Electret-Based Thin-Film Mechanical Antenna by K. P. Zhou, Y. T. Niu, W. N. Liu, Z. D. Wang, S. H. Guo, B. Li, Z. Wang, X. K. Zhao

“…At present, VLF and ULF antennas are mostly bulky and require hundreds of antennas and more to be set up, which is costly and inefficient. In this paper, we propose to generate VLF and ULF signals by rotating a multilayer multipair electret thin-film electret driven by an excitation device, which improves the problem of low radiation efficiency of VLF and ULF signals and the large size of conventional low-frequency transmitting antennas. …”

An Overlapping IBM-PISO Algorithm with an FFT-Based Poisson Solver for Parallel Incompressible Flow Simulations by Jiacheng Lian, Qinghe Yao, Zichao Jiang

“…We introduce a novel time-step splitting method to implement communication overlapping optimization, aiming to reduce costs dominated by the pressure Poisson solver. Using a fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based approach, the Poisson equation is solved efficiently with <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>O</mi><mo>(</mo><mi>N</mi><mo form="prefix">log</mo><mi>N</mi><mo>)</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> complexity. …”

“…Multicomponent treatment has shown to reduce the quality of life and negatively affect adherence to drug therapy in IBD patients.One of the leading causes of treatment failure is low treatment adherence, which leads to disease progression, disability, and increased financial costs. Currently, there are many factors that affect adherence to therapy, some of them are modifiable, which creates opportunities to improve the effectiveness of existing medical interventions. …”

Fully Quantized Matrix Arithmetic-Only BERT Model and Its FPGA-Based Accelerator by Hiroshi Fuketa, Toshihiro Katashita, Yohei Hori, Masakazu Hioki

“…Conventionally, the BERT model relies on floating point arithmetic for inference and requires not only linear matrix multiplication but also nonlinear functions, such as softmax and normalization functions, which significantly increase hardware costs. In contrast, the proposed FQ MA-BERT model quantizes all activations and weights to 8-bit integer precision and ternary precision, respectively, i.e., the proposed model is fully quantized. …”
