operatorcentered enhancement of awareness in navigation

the ocean project approach is to contribute to the mitigation of navigational accidents by supporting the navigators to do an even better job than they do presently such support does not only relate to an onthespot enhancement of navigational awareness including the presence of marine mammals and floating containers or an improved performance of evasive manoeuvring and other mitigating actions the project will go both deeper and wider to identify and suggest amendments or improvements in the most pertinent factors that may contribute to events becoming accidents training technical human or organisational factors operational constraints processes and procedures commercial pressures or structural issues like shortcomings in rules and regulations from an implementation perspective the ocean project will develop new design methods and operational processes as well as integrating existing technologies to provide novel and improved functionalities a key convergence point is the overall navigation situation assessment made by the operator and the project aims at providing an integrated and designedforthepurpose presentation of nearfield threats and navigational hinderances the project outputs will include an evasive manoeuvring agent intended to work in tandem with existing ship systems continuously assessing navigational safety with respect to grounding or collision with other ships fixed structures or other threats and the visualization of advanced manoeuvring prediction ocean will suggest the creation of a european navigational hazard infrastructure to collect process and distribute data relating to the presence of marine mammals and floating containers further innovations comprise input to upcoming and revised international standards for maritime communications and practical methods to design maritime instruments and devices all of which will be demonstrated in consolidated scenarios

mechanisims of nuclear selfassembly

shape and function of the vertebrate nucleus depend on the choreographed interplay between lipids proteins and dna to form the nuclear envelope even small molecular changes such as point mutations in the proteins of the nuclear envelope the lamina cause detrimental human diseases including premature aging cancer and heart disease to date a clear mechanistically compelling explanation for the dynamic coupling of lipids proteins and dna to safeguard nuclear shape and function is still missing we here propose to build minimal synthetic nuclei organelloids bottomup as a tool to study the selfassembly of a functional nucleus we recently discovered the conserved molecular machinery that ensures the assembly of the nuclear envelope in open vertebrate mitosis our data point to uncharacterized fundamental mechanisms that couple the fusion of lipidmembrane sheets into a continues nuclear membrane to the formation of the lamina and the organization of chromatin in the same chain of eventsin this proposal we will leverage our recent advances in reconstitution to build organelloids to recapitulate shape and function of the membranelaminachromatin confluence using these nuclear organelloids we will resolve the nuclear assembly process in high resolution by applying integrated structural biology and determine the unknown biophysical principles that drive the selforganization of individual molecules into one functional organelle our strategy will reveal the unknown hierarchical relationship between lipids proteins and dna and produce detailed mechanistic models for the formation and coupling of functional subdomains that are commonly observed in the nuclear membrane the lamina and chromatin with cell models and topdown approaches we ultimately aim to define the fundamental principles that govern nuclear biogenesis with implications for health and disease
nonequilibrium many body control of quantum simulators

the ability to control quantum matter in a state of equilibrium is a milestone of 20thcentury physics a major goal of modern physics is to extend this knowledge to outofequilibrium systems located at the boundary between equilibrium and nonequilibrum quantum simulation appears particularly suitable for this purpose using periodic drives quantum simulators can experimentally emulate phenomena hitherto inaccessible in conventional materials such as artificial gauge fields or topological and dynamically localized matter however our understanding of how to manipulate systems exposed to intense nonequilibrium drives is in its infancy especially regarding strongly interacting models we propose to overcome the current limitations by combining ideas from quantum control and artificial intelligence ai algorithms we will develop a new theoretical framework for nonadiabatic manybody state control on top of strong periodic drives underlying the optimal manipulation of ordered prethermal states of matter without equilibrium counterparts understanding this manybody dynamics will improve cuttingedge manipulation techniques in cold atoms trapped ions superconducting circuits and quantum solids we will add reinforcement learning rl one of the most promising techniques in ai to the quantum entanglement control toolbox deep rl has the potential to push the stateoftheart of disentangling quantum states since it is capable of identifying effective degrees of freedom even when no underlying physical structure is immediately obviousdiscovering guiding principles of physics for manybody control away from equilibrium has the potential to reveal new connections across quantum dynamics statistical mechanics optimal control and machine learning the proposed research establishes a missing link on the roadmap for designing future materials and technologies based on nonequilibrium processes in condensed matter quantum optics and quantum computing
