Spinor tunnelling amplitudes from all-order Feynman diagram summation

This work presents a non-perturbative quantum field theoretic computation of spinor tunnelling through a potential barrier. Within position space potential formalism, we identify coupled recursion relations forming a self-consistent integral equation. Our method, enabling both analytical and numerical approaches, transforms into a formalism admitting both numerical framework for arbitrary potentials and analytical exact results for select barriers. For the rectangular barrier, the QFT-derived amplitudes reproduce the relativistic quantum mechanical (RQM) results, thus establishing a foundation for future calculation of beyond-RQM field-theoretic corrections.

Fine-Tuning Transformers for Identifying Self-Reporting Potential Cases and Symptoms of COVID-19 in Tweets

We describe our straight-forward approach for Tasks 5 and 6 of 2021 Social Media Mining for Health Applications (SMM4H) shared tasks. Our system is based on fine-tuning Distill- BERT on each task, as well as first fine-tuning the model on the other task. We explore how much fine-tuning is necessary for accurately classifying tweets as containing self-reported COVID-19 symptoms (Task 5) or whether a tweet related to COVID-19 is self-reporting, non-personal reporting, or a literature/news mention of the virus (Task 6).
