Small-molecule azomethines: Organic photovoltaics via Schiff base condensation chemistry

Conjugated small-molecule azomethines for photovoltaic applications were prepared via Schiff base condensation chemistry. Bulk heterojunction (BHJ) devices exhibit efficiencies of 1.2% with MoOx as the hole-transporting layer. The versatility and simplicity of the chemistry is illustrated by preparing a photovoltaic device directly from the...

GPU acceleration for support vector machines

This paper presents a GPU-assisted version of the LIBSVM library for Support Vector Machines. SVMs are particularly popular for classification procedures among the research community, but for large training data the processing time becomes unrealistic. The modification that is proposed is porting the computation of the kernel matrix elements to...
