ABSTRACT Kinetic investigation in Ru(III) catalyzed oxidation of D(+)-galactose and lactose in an alkaline solution of potassium bromate in the presence of mercuric acetate as a scavenger for Br -ion has been carried out in the temperature range 30-45°C. The rate shows first order dependence with respect to the bromate and zeroth order with respect to the substrate (sugars). The reaction exhibits first order dependence on the catalyst ruthenium(III) and there is inverse order on the rate of reaction. Potassium chloride and acetic acid have a positive effect on the rate. Negligible effect of change in Hg(OAc) 2 , ionic strength of the medium and D 2 O. [RuCl 3 (H 2 O)OH] -1 and BrO 3 -are the most reactive species Ru(III) chloride and bromated, respectively. Galactonic acid and lactobionic acid have been identified as the main oxidation products of the reaction. Various activation parameters have bee calculated and recorded. On the basis of experimental findings, a suitable mechanism consistent with the observed kinetics was proposed and the rate law has been derived on the basis of obtained data

PacGAN: The power of two samples in generative adversarial networks
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are innovative techniques for learning generative models of complex data distributions from samples. Despite remarkable recent improvements in generating realistic images, one of their major shortcomings is the fact that in practice, they tend to produce samples with little diversity, even when trained on diverse datasets. This phenomenon, known as mode collapse, has been the main focus of several recent advances in GANs. Yet there is little understanding of why mode collapse happens and why existing approaches are able to mitigate mode collapse. We propose a principled approach to handling mode collapse, which we call {\em packing}. The main idea is to modify the discriminator to make decisions based on multiple samples from the same class, either real or artificially generated. We borrow analysis tools from binary hypothesis testing---in particular the seminal result of Blackwell \cite{Bla53}---to prove a fundamental connection between packing and mode collapse. We show that packing naturally penalizes generators with mode collapse, thereby favoring generator distributions with less mode collapse during the training process. Numerical experiments on benchmark datasets suggests that packing provides significant improvements in practice as well.Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'.
