Abstract: Preparation, characterization, and an electrochemical study of Mg0.1V2O5 prepared by a novel sol-gel method with no high-temperature post-processing are disclosed. Cyclic voltammetry showed the material to be quasi-reversible, with improved kinetics in an acetonitrile-, relative to a carbonate-, based electrolyte. Galvanostatic test data under a C/10 discharge showed a delivered capacity >250 mAh/g over several cycles. Based on these results, a magnesium anode battery, as disclosed, would yield an average operating voltage ˜3.2 Volts with an energy density ˜800 mWh/g for the cathode material, making the newly synthesized material a viable cathode material for secondary magnesium batteries.

Abstract: A system associated with predicting authentication of a device user based on a joint features representation related to an echo-signature associated with a device is disclosed. The system performs operations that include emitting acoustic signals in response to a request for processing of a profile associated with the device. The system receives a set of echo acoustic signals that are tailored based on reflection of the acoustic signals from unique contours of one or more depth portions associated with the user relative to a discrete epoch. One or one or more region segments associated with the echo acoustic signals are extracted in order to train a classification model. A classification model is generated based on the one or more region segments as extracted. A joint features representation based on the classification model is generated. A vector-based classification model is used in the prediction of the joint features representation.
