Education and japanese Education in the Final Years of the Qin Dynasty : Kiroku Adachi in Xi'an
No full textapplication/pdfKiroku Adachi is known as an author on “Choan Shiseki no Kenkyu” （The study of historical sites in Chang’an）. He stayed at Shaanxi High Academy in Xi’an as a Japanese educator at the end of the Qing dynasty, between 1906 and 1910. While he was staying in Xi’an, he met Jitsuzou Kuwahara and Uno Tetsuto, who laid the groundwork for Oriental Studies in Japan. The encounter would prompt Adachi to begin his Oriental Studies. In this paper, by examining various documents, I investigate Kiroku Adachi’s education, his study and his life in Xi’an. First, I order Adachi’s personal history, based on the documents in the possession of his grandchild. In Chapter I, “The Trend of Japanese Educators in Shaanxi”, I researched documents of the Japanese Diplomatic Record Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs about the situation of the Japanese Educators who stayed in Xi’an between 1906 and 1915. In Chapter II, “Approval Process and Curriculum of Shaanxi High Academy”, I investigated Chinese documents about the class schedules of the Shaanxi High Academy where Adachi taught. In Chapter III, “The Life of Japanese Educator Kiroku Adachi”, I analyzed documents concerning the lives of Adachi, Jitsuzou Kuwabara and Tetsuto Uno in Xi’an. These materials describe the attempted theft of the “Nestorian monument” by the Dane Frits Holm in 1907. These records describe the situation regarding the protection of cultural heritage in Xi’an.departmental bulletin pape
Versatile Functionality of Four-Terminal TiO₂₋ₓ Memristive Devices as Artificial Synapses for Neuromorphic Computing

Versatile Functionality of Four-Terminal TiO₂₋ₓ Memristive Devices as Artificial Synapses for Neuromorphic Computing. ACS Applied Electronic Materials 2022 4 (5), 2326-2336. DOI: 10.1021/acsaelm.2c00161. ©2022 American Chemical SocietyBrain-inspired computing systems, which emulate the activity of biological synapses and neurons, are becoming more and more essential owing to their potential ability to solve the von Neumann bottleneck. Various types of memristive devices have been proposed to achieve information processing through synaptic functions. However, biological synapses have many complicated functions, such as heterosynaptic plasticity and the related neuromodulation, that are difficult to implement in conventional two-terminal memristors because of the requirement for multiple inputs. In this study, simple four-terminal memristive devices consisting of epitaxial thin films of Ti₂₋ₓ are fabricated and their capacity to implement synaptic functions are explored. These devices utilize the two-dimensional variation of the oxygen vacancy distribution in the TiO₂₋ₓ film to realize advanced heterosynaptic functionality, including tunable spike-timing-dependent plasticity, heterosynaptic plasticity mimicking habituation and sensitization, and Pavlovian conditioning, through multiterminal voltage inputs. The present results demonstrate the striking versatility of our four-terminal device for implementing the diverse and complex functions of artificial synapses on a single memristive passive element

Embeddings and immersions
No full textThis book covers fundamental techniques in the theory of C^{\infty }-imbeddings and C^{\infty }-immersions, emphasizing clear intuitive understanding and containing many figures and diagrams. Adachi starts with an introduction to the work of Whitney and of Haefliger on C^{\infty }-imbeddings and C^{\infty }-manifolds. The Smale-Hirsch theorem is presented as a generalization of the classification of C^{\infty }-imbeddings by isotopy and is extended by Gromov's work on the subject, including Gromov's convex integration theory. Finally, as an application of Gromov's work, the author introduces Haefliger's classification theorem of foliations on open manifolds. Also described here is the Adachi's work with Landweber on the integrability of almost complex structures on open manifolds. This book would be an excellent text for upper-division undergraduate or graduate courses
