- Description:
- The SID dataset was curated to support advanced research in autonomous driving systems, particularly focusing on perception under adverse weather and lighting conditions. This dataset encompasses over 178k high-resolution stereo image pairs organized into 27 sequences, reflecting a rich variety of conditions such as snow, rain, fog, and low light. It covers dynamic changes in driving scenarios and environmental backgrounds, including university campuses, residential streets, and urban settings. The dataset is designed to challenge perception algorithms with scenarios such as partially obscured camera lenses and varying visibility, promoting the development of robust computer vision models. No specialized software or scripts are necessary for accessing the image data, as the files are provided in standard PNG format. However, researchers and developers may require their image processing and computer vision toolkits to utilize the dataset effectively in their work.

- Description:
- Generation of C2+ compounds using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water provides a promising path for carbon neutrality. The exploration of a catalyst to break the bottleneck of C-C coupling, for constructing a rational artificial photosynthesis integrated device, is at the core. Herein, based on operando spectroscopy measurements, theoretical calculations, and feedstock experiments, it is discovered that gold, in conjunction with iridium, can catalyze the reduction of CO2, achieving C-C coupling by insertion of CO2 into -CH3. Owing to a combination of optoelectronic and catalytic properties, the assembly of AuIr with InGaN nanowires on silicon (AuIr@InGaN NWs/Si) enables the achievement of a C2H6 activity of 58.8 mmol‧g-1‧h-1 with a turnover number of 54,595 over 60 hours. A light-to-fuels efficiency of ~0.59% for solar fuels production from CO2 and H2O is achieved without any other energy inputs. This work provides a carbon-negative path for producing higher order C compounds.

- Description:
- We have ported our MHD code, BATSRUS ( https://github.com/SWMFsoftware/BATSRUS), to the GPU. This dataset contains the input parameters and raw timing results for the Paper (being revised). To reproduce the results on the supercomputers Frontera and Pleiades, the user need to load modules nvhpc 20.7 for compiling on frontera, nvhpc 24.3-nompi + mpi-hpe/mpt for compiling on Pleiades. and Abstract: BATSRUS, our state-of-the-art extended magnetohydrodynamic code, is the most used and one of the most resource-consuming model in the Space Weather Modeling Framework. It is ever our objective to improve its efficiency and speed with emerging techniques, such as GPU acceleration. To utilize the GPU nodes on modern supercomputer, we port BATSRUS to GPUs with the OpenACC API. Porting the code to a single GPU requires to rewrite and optimize the most used functionalities of the original code into a new solver, which accounts for around 1% of the entire program. To port it to multiple GPUs, we implement a new message passing algorithm to support its unique block adaptive grid feature. We conduct weak scaling tests on as many as 64 GPUs on two supercomputers, and find good performance for up to 16 GPUs. The program is able to retain 65-80% parallel efficiency within one node (up to 4 GPUs), and 40-60% efficiency for 16 GPUs. Applications on more GPUs have reduced efficiency but remain operationally meaningful. Profiling shows that the loss of efficiency is due to the communication latency between supercomputer nodes. We also demonstrate our ability to run representative magnetosphere simulations on GPUs. The performance for a single V100 GPU is about the same as 140 Intel Xeon E5-2680v4 ''Broadwell'' CPU cores, and it runs about twice as fast as real time. The code can run 4 times faster than real time on 4 V100 or 16 RTX 5000 GPUs.

Mali flora images
User Collection
- Creator:
- Heath, Jeffrey G.
- Description:
- These images of plants, in nature or as fresh or dried specimens, were made in conjunction with research on languages of the Dogon and Bozo families, along with the isolated language Bangime, in Central Mali between 2006 and 2023. (See also the work "Dogon and Bangime flora terms from central Mali (2023)" in Deep Blue Data: https://doi.org/10.7302/34vf-jk03. The late Pierre Poilecot of CNRS (Montpellier, France) provided invaluable help in the early days. However, I am responsible for the determinations (including taxonomic updates), and I am not a professional botanist. The images range from poor to excellent technical quality. They may be of use for two purposes: a) acquiring a basic knowledge of the flora of the area, for newcomers; b) as vouchers for the determinations in my lexical spreadsheets on the various languages. While the main burst of taxonomic changes due to molecular studies has probably leveled off as of 2023, some revisions at all levels (family, genus, species) will occur over time. The African Flowering Plant Database at url https://africanplantdatabase.ch is especially useful for updates/synonymies at the species level, but tends to lag behind on revisions at the family level. You can also consult the Practical identification guide to plants of northern and east-central Mali, compiled from the literature, in Deep Blue Documents at https://dx.doi.org/10.7302/8631., Each "work" for flowering plants in this collection has the title "Mali flora images X" where X is the name of a botanical family. Users who enter at the collection level should search by family (from Acanthacaceae to Zypɣophyllaceae). Large families Poaceae, Malvaceae, and Fabaceae are divided into two or more works, but they will all show up in search results for the family. There is one work for non-flowering plants with title "Mali aa fern fungus lichen images"., Within each work, the individual images have file names like these: fl_Amaranthaceae_Celosia_trigyna_Beni_10_2011_fl_50035_JH.JPG fl_Lamiaceae_Hoslundia_opposita_Barato_09_2021_piripirinaw_03_fol_fr_JH.JPG fl_Zygophyllaceae_Tribulus_terrestris_Sevare_patch_50672_JH.tif fl_Fabaceae_Caesalpinioideae_mimosoid_Vachellia_(or_Acacia)_nilotica fuwON_1_Barato_09_2021_entire_JH.JPG They begin with "fl" for flora, the family, the genus, and the species epithet. For Fabaceae, the subfamily and if relevant "mimosoid" (part of subfamily Caesalpinioideae) precedes the genus. These items are separated by underlines (important to note if searching for a genus-species binomial). The remaining items were mostly for my own use. They may include a location (on which see the following paragraph), the date, a crude representation (without IPA symbols or diacritics) of a native name, a five-digit code for my use, a photo number like "2" for the same plant, "JH" to indicate that the image was taken by me or by a member of a project I directed, jpg or occasionally tif for forrmat, and an indicator of what part of the plant is shown: entire, bark, fl[ower], fol[iage], lf (leaf), fr[uit], tr[unk], br[anch], th[orn]. File names can be quite long especially for Fabaceae because of the subfamily names. In lists of files under such works, the file name may be shown in abbreviated form (with ellipsis ...) so that the genus and species terms may not be visible. The only way to find files for a particular species is by searching for that species. Alternatively, all of the files in a work can be downloaded in zip form and users can then see complete file names. The readme's for each work list the included species. , Most of the locations indicated are in the Dogon-speaking area, which includes cliffs, high plateaus, inselbergs, sandy plains, seasonal rivers, and small ponds. Dogon locations include Beni, Tupere, Ségué, Bendiely, Dianwely, Anda, Walo, and Tongo Tongo, among others. The inselbergs and adjoining plains of the montane Songhay are represented mainly by Hombori and Kikara. The Niger and Bani river zone from Mopti to Segou, a mainly Bozo-speaking area that features seasonal floodplains, is represented mainly by Djenne, Barato, and Kolongo. , Some of these plants are featured in documentary-style videos. There are two collections of such videos from Mali in Deep Blue Data: Mali documentary videos from 2023 - https://doi.org/10.7302/4851-2c52 Central Mali documentary videos - https://doi.org/10.7302/4jg9-j095 Additional flora-related videos from Mali may be archived at a later date. Some fauna images may also be archived at a later date. The various Mali collections (flora, videos) will be paralleled in time by comparable collections for southwestern Burkina Faso, and small collections for north-central Côte d'Ivoire, all in Deep Blue Data., and Terminology resources can be found in the collection "Native flora-fauna term spreadsheets from interior West Africa" - https://doi.org/10.7302/5a0d-gq20

- Description:
- While collaboration with industry is paramount to innovation, the recent emphasis on industrial relationship transparency has sparked new guidelines, research studies, and standardizations focused on re-defining conflict of interest. There is limited data on defining the specific financial amount wherein a conflict of interest is relevant. This study is the first to assess the potential financial effects on high-quality clinical data, or the “indirect sponsorship”.
