psi: Plant Photosystem I excitation energy transfer network (2020)
Weighted directed network of the light-harvesting Photosystem Ι (PSI) of the plant Pisum sativum. The nodes represent chromophores with different identities (i.e. chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, β-carotene and derivates, lutein, violaxanthin), while edges represent FRET transfer between chromophores. The link directionality connecting nodes in the PSI network depends on the energy levels of the connected chromophores. The…

I will point out that this match commentary sums up some of my frustration with officiating, different competitions be damned.
#LFC conceded beyond the declared stoppage time to lose at Selhurst Park. A substitution in stoppage time allowed the referee's discretion to continue a full minute beyond. 👍
Gamed by "acute" cramping, conveniently timed when the ball is out of bounds …

CHRONOBERG: Capturing Language Evolution and Temporal Awareness in Foundation Models
Large language models (LLMs) excel at operating at scale by leveraging social media and various data crawled from the web. Whereas existing corpora are diverse, their frequent lack of long-term temporal structure may however limit an LLM's ability to contextualize semantic and normative evolution of language and to capture diachronic variation. To support analysis and training for the latter, we introduce CHRONOBERG, a temporally structured corpus of English book texts spanning 250 years, curat…
