Predictive Power of a Bayesian Effective Action for Fully Connected One Hidden Layer Neural Networks in the Proportional Limit.

We perform accurate numerical experiments with fully connected one hidden layer neural networks trained with a discretized Langevin dynamics on the MNIST and CIFAR10 datasets. Our goal is to empirically determine the regimes of validity of a recently derived Bayesian effective action for shallow architectures in the proportional limit. We explore the predictive power of the theory as a function of the parameters (the temperature T, the magnitude of the Gaussian priors λ_{1}, λ_{0}, the size of the hidden layer N_{1}, and the size of the training set P) by comparing the experimental and predicted generalization error.

Evaluation of temperature- and ethanol-related developmental degree variations by a new scoring system (FETAX-score) applicable to Frog Embryo Teratogenicity Assay: Xenopus.

The aim of the present work is to propose a new quantitative assessment method (FETAX-score) for determining the degree of Xenopus laevis embryo development intended for use in embryotoxicity studies. Inspired by a similar scoring system used to evaluate developmental delays (young-for-age phenotypes) in rat embryos cultured in vitro, the FETAX-score was established by considering seven morphological features (head, naris, mouth, lower jaw, tentacles, intestine, anus) that are easily evaluable in tadpoles during the late stages of development at the conclusion of the test. Given that X.

Effects of combined exposure to two bisphenol plasticizers (BPA and BPB) on Xenopus laevis development.

Due to its endocrine disruptive activity, the plastic additive Bisphenol A (BPA) is classified as substance of very high concern (EU ECHA 2017). A correlation between environmental exposure to BPA and congenital defects has been described in humans and in experimental species including the amphibian Xenopus laevis, where severe branchial defects were associated to lethality. The exposure of X.

Strong Swelling and Symmetrization in Siliceous Zeolites due to Hydrogen Insertion at High Pressure.

Hydrogen and helium saturate the 1D pore systems of the high-silica (Si/Al>30) zeolites Theta-One (TON), and Mobile-Twelve (MTW) at high pressure based on x-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and Monte Carlo simulations. In TON, a strong 22 % volume increase occurs above 5 GPa with a transition from the collapsed P2 to a symmetrical, swelled Cmc2 form linked to an increase in H content from 12 H/unit cell in the pores to 35 H/unit cell in the pores and in the framework of the material. No transition and continuous collapse of TON is observed in helium indicating that the mechanism of H insertion is distinct from other fluids.

An insight into REEs recovery from spent fluorescent lamps: Evaluation of the affinity of an NH-13X zeolite towards Ce, La, Eu and Y.

The constantly increasing demand of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) made them to be part of the so-called "critical elements" indispensable for the energy transition. The monopoly of only a few countries, the so-called balance problem between demand and natural abundance, and the need to limit the environmental costs of their mining, stress the necessity of a recycling policy of these elements. Different methods have been tested for REEs recovery.
