I have largely stopped posting on here but this paper in @PolymChem is a special one that has taken a long time to prepare - Polymer chemistry informed neural networks (PCINNs) for data-driven modelling of polymerization processes pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

5⃣Elur-panpina itxurako PP-ak buru txiki bat dute, PI-ekin elkartzeko joera izango dutenak bertan lokalizatuko ditugun aingurei esker. Gorputz handi bat ere badute, PI‑ekin elkartzeko joerarik izango ez duena eta PI-ak elkarrengana gerturatzea ekidingo duena. #txiotesia7
