Dense Paraphrasing for multimodal dialogue interpretation.

Multimodal dialogue involving multiple participants presents complex computational challenges, primarily due to the rich interplay of diverse communicative modalities including speech, gesture, action, and gaze. These modalities interact in complex ways that traditional dialogue systems often struggle to accurately track and interpret. To address these challenges, we extend the textual enrichment strategy of Dense Paraphrasing (DP), by translating each nonverbal modality into linguistic expressions.

Identifying Clinically and Functionally Distinct Groups Among Healthy Controls and First Episode Psychosis Patients by Clustering on EEG Patterns.

Objective: The mismatch negativity (MMN) is considered as a promising biomarker that can inform future therapeutic studies. However, there is a large variability among patients with first episode psychosis (FEP). Also, most studies report a single electrode site and on comparing case-control group differences.

Copper-chiral camphor β-amino alcohol complex catalyzed asymmetric Henry reaction.

Four novel chiral amino alcohols were synthesized from D-(+)-camphor and utilized as ligands in a Cu(I)-catalyzed asymmetric Henry reaction. The reactions were carried out under mild conditions with excellent enantioselectivities and moderate yields without the exclusion of air or moisture. The highest enantioselectivity was observed up to 94% enantiomeric excess (ee) with ligand in toluene at room temperature.
