Joint Intentionality

Abstract According to the shared intentionality hypothesis proposed by Michael Tomasello, two cognitive upgrades – joint and collective intentionality, respectively – make human thinking unique. Joint intentionality, in particular, is a mindset supposed to account for our early, species-specific capacity to participate in collaborative activities involving two (or a few) agents. In order to elucidate such activities and their proximate cognitive-motivational mechanism, Tomasello draws on philosophical accounts of shared intentionality. I argue that his deference to such cognitively demanding accounts of shared intentional activities is problematic if his theoretical ambition is in part to show that and how early (prelinguistic and precultural) capacities for joint action contribute to the development of higher cognitive capacities.
A Novel Approach on Towards Effective Bug Triage and Improve the Quality of Bug Data

In order to diminution the time cost in physical work, text classification practices are pragmatic to conduct automatic bug triage. Presently, software companies spend over 45 percent of cost in dealing with software bugs. A foreseeable step of fixing bugs is bug triage, which ambitions to decorously consign a developer to a new bug. In this scheme, it is addressed the problem of data reduction for bug triage, to reduce the scale and progress the reputation of bug data. It is here combined with instance selection with feature selection to simultaneously reduce data scale on the bug dimension and the word dimension. To define the order of applying instance selection and feature selection, it is extract attributes from historical bug data sets and build a predictive model for a new bug data set. It is practically scrutinized the enactment of data reduction on totally 600,000 bug reports of two large open source projects, namely Eclipse and Mozilla. The work provides an approach to leveraging techniques on data processing to form reduced and high-quality bug data in software development and maintenance.
A Novel Approach for Elastic Query Processing in the Cloud

Cloud computing is a promising model of serviceoriented computing. One major advantage of cloud computing is its elasticity, i.e., the system's capability to supply and take away resources dynamically at runtime. For that, it's essential to design and implement a systematic and effective technique that takes complete advantage of the system's potential flexibility. This paper presents a non-invasive approach that monitors the performance of relational database management systems in cloud infrastructure, and dynamically makes choices to maximise the effectiveness of the provider's environment whereas still satisfying specified service level agreements" (SLAs).
Proceedings of the Workshop on Languages in Social Media

Welcome to the ACL Workshop on Language in Social Media (LSM 2011)! Over the last few years, there has been a growing public and enterprise interest in 'social media' and their role in modern society. At the heart of this interest is the ability for users to create and share content via a variety of platforms such as blogs, micro-blogs, collaborative wikis, multimedia sharing sites, social networking sites etc. The volume and variety of user-generated content (UGC) and the user participation network behind it are creating new opportunities for understanding web-based practices and building socially intelligent and personalized applications. Investigations around social data can be broadly categorized along the following dimensions: (a) understanding aspects of the user-generated content (b) modeling and observing the user network that the content is generated in and (c) characterizing individuals and groups that produce and consume the content. The goals for this workshop are to focus on sharing research efforts and results in the area of understanding language usage on social media. While there is a rich body of previous work in processing textual content, certain characteristics of UGC on social media introduce challenges in their analyses. A large portion of language found in UGC is in the Informal English domain --- a blend of abbreviations, slang and context specific terms; lacking in sufficient context and regularities and delivered with an indifferent approach to grammar and spelling. Traditional content analysis techniques developed for a more formal genre like news, Wikipedia or scientific articles do not necessarily translate well to UGC. Consequently, well-understood problems such as information extraction, search or monetization on the Web are facing pertinent challenges and need to be revisited.
Entanglement scaling in quantum advantage benchmarks

A contemporary technological milestone is to build a quantum device performing a computational task beyond the capability of any classical computer, an achievement known as quantum adversarial advantage. In what ways can the entanglement realized in such a demonstration be quantified? Inspired by the area law of tensor networks, we derive an upper bound for the minimum random circuit depth needed to generate the maximal bipartite entanglement correlations between all problem variables (qubits). This bound is (i) lattice geometry dependent and (ii) makes explicit a nuance implicit in other proposals with physical consequence. The hardware itself should be able to support super-logarithmic ebits of entanglement across some poly($n$) number of qubit-bipartitions, otherwise the quantum state itself will not possess volumetric entanglement scaling and full-lattice-range correlations. Hence, as we present a connection between quantum advantage protocols and quantum entanglement, the entanglement implicitly generated by such protocols can be tested separately to further ascertain the validity of any quantum advantage claim.
Planification d'expériences séquentielle dans un contexte de méta-modélisation multi-fidélité.

Large computer codes are widely used in engineering to study physical systems. Nevertheless, simulations can sometimes be time-consuming. In this case, an approximation of the code input/output relation is made using a metamodel. Actually, a computer code can often be run at different levels of complexity and a hierarchy of levels of code can hence be obtained. For example, it can be a finite element model with a more or less fine mesh. The aim of our research is to study the use of several levels of a code to predict the output of a costly computer code. The presented multi-stage metamodel is a particular case of co-kriging which is a well-known geostatistical method. We first describe the construction of the co-kriging model and we focus then on a sequential experimental design strategy. Indeed, one of the strengths of co-kriging is that it provides through the predictive co-kriging variance an estimation of the model error at each point of the input space parameter. Therefore, to improve the surrogate model we can sequentially add points in the training set at locations where the predictive variances are the largest ones. Nonetheless, in a multi-fidelity framework, we also have to choose which level of code we have to run. We present here different strategies to choose this level. They are based on an original result which gives the contribution of each code on the co-kriging variance.
New constraints on the physical conditions in H2-bearing GRB-host damped Lyman-α absorbers

We report the detections of molecular hydrogen (H2), vibrationally-excited H2 (H2∗), and neutral atomic carbon (C I), an efficient tracer of molecular gas, in two new afterglow spectra of GRBs 181020A (z = 2.938) and 190114A (z = 3.376), observed with X-shooter at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). Both host-galaxy absorption systems are characterized by strong damped Lyman-α absorbers (DLAs) and substantial amounts of molecular hydrogen with logN(H I, H2) = 22.20 ± 0.05, 20.40 ± 0.04 (GRB 181020A) and logN(H I, H2) = 22.15 ± 0.05, 19.44 ± 0.04 (GRB 190114A). The DLA metallicites, depletion levels, and dust extinctions are within the typical regimes probed by GRBs with [Zn/H] = −1.57 ± 0.06, [Zn/Fe] = 0.67 ± 0.03, and AV = 0.27 ± 0.02 mag (GRB 181020A) and [Zn/H] = −1.23 ± 0.07, [Zn/Fe] = 1.06 ± 0.08, and AV = 0.36 ± 0.02 mag (GRB 190114A). In addition, we examine the molecular gas content of all known H2-bearing GRB-DLAs and explore the physical conditions and characteristics required to simultaneously probe C I and H2∗. We confirm that H2 is detected in all C I- and H2∗-bearing GRB absorption systems, but that these rarer features are not necessarily detected in all GRB H2 absorbers. We find that a large molecular fraction of fH2 ≳ 10−3 is required for C I to be detected. The defining characteristic for H2∗ to be present is less clear, though a large H2 column density is an essential factor. We also find that the observed line profiles of the molecular-gas tracers are kinematically “cold”, with small velocity offsets of δv < 20 km s−1 from the bulk of the neutral absorbing gas. We then derive the H2 excitation temperatures of the molecular gas and find that they are relatively low with Tex ≈ 100−300 K, however, there could be evidence of warmer components populating the high-J H2 levels in GRBs 181020A and 190114A. Finally, we demonstrate that even though the X-shooter GRB afterglow campaign has been successful in recovering several H2-bearing GRB-host absorbers, this sample is still hampered by a significant dust bias excluding the most dust-obscured H2 absorbers from identification. C I and H2∗ could open a potential route to identify molecular gas even in low-metallicity or highly dust-obscured bursts, though they are only efficient tracers for the most H2-rich GRB-host absorption systems.
Uniform bounds on harmonic Beltrami differentials and Weil–Petersson curvatures

Abstract In this article we show that for every finite area hyperbolic surface X of type ( g , n ) {(g,n)} and any harmonic Beltrami differential μ on X, then the magnitude of μ at any point of small injectivity radius is uniform bounded from above by the ratio of the Weil–Petersson norm of μ over the square root of the systole of X up to a uniform positive constant multiplication. We apply the uniform bound above to show that the Weil–Petersson Ricci curvature, restricted at any hyperbolic surface of short systole in the moduli space, is uniformly bounded from below by the negative reciprocal of the systole up to a uniform positive constant multiplication. As an application, we show that the average total Weil–Petersson scalar curvature over the moduli space is uniformly comparable to - g {-g} as the genus g goes to infinity.
Probing the era of reheating for reconstructed inflationary potential in the RS II braneworld

We analyse the epoch of reheating after an inflationary phase in the Randall–Sundrum type-II braneworld, where we did not consider any particular model of inflation, but rather reconstructed the inflationary potential solving the flow equations using Monte Carlo (MC) approach. It is shown numerically that a potential conceived through the MC reconstruction technique can be represented by an effective potential as a function of the number of e-foldings (N). Then, the epoch of reheating is studied for this reconstructed potential. The relation between the reheating temperature (T reh) and the five-dimensional Planck mass (M 5) is established. Moreover, it is argued that there is a stringent bound on the critical reheating temperature that also translates to a tight bound on M 5.
Fully numerical calculations on atoms with fractional occupations and range-separated exchange functionals

A recently developed finite element approach for fully numerical atomic structure calculations [S. Lehtola, Int. J. Quantum Chem. 119, e25945 (2019)] is extended to the description of atoms with spherically symmetric densities via fractionally occupied orbitals. Specialized versions of Hartree-Fock as well as local density and generalized gradient approximation density functionals are developed, allowing extremely rapid calculations at the basis set limit on the ground and low-lying excited states even for heavy atoms. The implementation of range-separation based on the Yukawa or complementary error function (erfc) kernels is also described, allowing complete basis set benchmarks of modern range-separated hybrid functionals with either integer or fractional occupation numbers. Finally, computation of atomic effective potentials at the local density or generalized gradient approximation levels for the superposition of atomic potentials (SAP) approach [S. Lehtola, J. Chem. Theory Comput. 15, 1593 (2019)] that has been shown to be a simple and efficient way to initialize electronic structure calculations is described. The present numerical approach is shown to afford beyond microhartree accuracy with a small number of numerical basis functions, and to reproduce literature results for the ground states of atoms and their cations for $1 \leq Z \leq 86 $. Our results indicate that the literature values deviate by up to 10 {\mu}Eh from the complete basis set limit. The numerical scheme for the erfc kernel is shown to work by comparison to results from large Gaussian basis set calculations from the literature. Spin-restricted ground states are reported for Hartree-Fock and Hartree-Fock-Slater calculations with fractional occupations for $1 \leq Z \leq 118$.
360 Panorama Synthesis from a Sparse Set of Images with Unknown Field of View

360°images represent scenes captured in all possible viewing directions and enable viewers to navigate freely around the scene thereby providing an immersive experience. Conversely, conventional images represent scenes in a single viewing direction with a small or limited field of view (FOV). As a result, only certain parts of the scenes are observed, and valuable information about the surroundings is lost. In this paper, a learning-based approach that reconstructs the scene in 360°× 180°from a sparse set of conventional images (typically 4 images) is proposed. The proposed approach first estimates the FOV of input images relative to the panorama. The estimated FOV is then used as the prior for synthesizing a high-resolution 360°panoramic output. The proposed method overcomes the difficulty of learning-based approach in synthesizing high resolution images (up to 512×1024). Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method produces 360°panorama with reasonable quality. Results also show that the proposed method outperforms the alternative method and can be generalized for non-panoramic scenes and images captured by a smartphone camera.
A Survey of Constrained Combinatorial Testing

Combinatorial Testing (CT) is a potentially powerful testing technique, whereas its failure revealing ability might be dramatically reduced if it fails to handle constraints in an adequate and efficient manner. To ensure the wider applicability of CT in the presence of constrained problem domains, large and diverse efforts have been invested towards the techniques and applications of constrained combinatorial testing. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive survey of representations, influences, and techniques that pertain to constraints in CT, covering 129 papers published between 1987 and 2018. This survey not only categorises the various constraint handling techniques, but also reviews comparatively less well-studied, yet potentially important, constraint identification and maintenance techniques. Since real-world programs are usually constrained, this survey can be of interest to researchers and practitioners who are looking to use and study constrained combinatorial testing techniques.
Direction reconfigurable nonreciprocal acousto-optic modulator on chip

Non-reciprocal components are essential in photonic systems for protecting light sources and for signal routing functions. Acousto-optic methods to produce non-reciprocal devices offer a foundry-compatible alternative to magneto-optic solutions and are especially important for photonic integration. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate a dynamically reconfigurable non-reciprocal acousto-optic modulator at telecom wavelength. The modulator can be arranged in a multitude of reciprocal and non-reciprocal configurations by means of an external RF input. The dynamic reconfigurability of the device is enabled by a new cross-finger interdigitated piezoelectric transducer that can change the directionality of the reciprocity-breaking acoustic excitation based on the phase of the RF input. The methodology we demonstrate here may enable new avenues for direction dependent signal processing and optical isolation.
Representations of two-qubit and ququart states via discrete Wigner functions

By means of a well-grounded mapping scheme linking Schwinger unitary operators and generators of the special unitary group $\mathrm{SU(N)}$, it is possible to establish a self-consistent theoretical framework for finite-dimensional discrete phase spaces which has the discrete $\mathrm{SU(N)}$ Wigner function as a legitimate by-product. In this paper, we apply these results with the aim of putting forth a detailed study on the discrete $\mathrm{SU(2)} \otimes \mathrm{SU(2)}$ and $\mathrm{SU(4)}$ Wigner functions, in straight connection with experiments involving, among other things, the tomographic reconstruction of density matrices related to the two-qubit and ququart states. Next, we establish a formal correspondence between both the descriptions that allows us to visualize the quantum correlation effects of these states in finite-dimensional discrete phase spaces. Moreover, we perform a theoretical investigation on the two-qubit X-states, which combines discrete Wigner functions and their respective marginal distributions in order to obtain a new function responsible for describing qualitatively the quantum correlation effects. To conclude, we also discuss possible extensions to the discrete Husimi and Glauber-Sudarshan distribution functions, as well as future applications on spin chains.
Electrical and electromagnetic co-simulations of the HERA Phase I receiver system including the effects of mutual coupling, and impact on the EoR window

The detection of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) delay power spectrum using a "foreground avoidance method" highly depends on the instrument chromaticity. The systematic effects induced by the radio-telescope spread the foreground signal in the delay domain, which contaminates the EoR window theoretically observable. Therefore, it is essential to understand and limit these chromatic effects. This paper describes a method to simulate the frequency and time responses of an antenna, by simultaneously taking into account the analogue RF receiver, the transmission cable, and the mutual coupling caused by adjacent antennas. Applied to the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA), this study reveals the presence of significant reflections at high delays caused by the 150-m cable which links the antenna to the back-end. Besides, it shows that waves can propagate from one dish to another one through large sections of the array because of mutual coupling. In this more realistic approach, the simulated system time response is attenuated by a factor $10^{4}$ after a characteristic delay which depends on the size of the array and on the antenna position. Ultimately, the system response is attenuated by a factor $10^{5}$ after 1400 ns because of the reflections in the cable, which corresponds to characterizable ${k_\parallel}$-modes above 0.7 $h \rm{Mpc}^{-1}$ at 150 MHz. Thus, this new study shows that the detection of the EoR signal with HERA Phase I will be more challenging than expected. On the other hand, it improves our understanding of the telescope, which is essential to mitigate the instrument chromaticity.
Gauge Theory And Integrability, III

We study two-dimensional integrable field theories from the viewpoint of the four-dimensional Chern-Simons-type gauge theory introduced recently. The integrable field theories are realized as effective theories for the four-dimensional theory coupled with two-dimensional surface defects, and we can systematically compute their Lagrangians and the Lax operators satisfying the zero-curvature condition. Our construction includes many known integrable field theories, such as Gross-Neveu models, principal chiral models with Wess-Zumino terms and symmetric-space coset sigma models. Moreover we obtain various generalization these models in a number of different directions, such as trigonometric/elliptic deformations, multi-defect generalizations and models associated with higher-genus spectral curves, many of which seem to be new. ar X iv :1 90 8. 02 28 9v 1 [ he pth ] 6 A ug 2 01 9
Quasi-Isometric Bounded Generation by Q-Rank-One Subgroups

We say that a subset X "quasi-isometrically boundedly generates" a finitely generated group Gamma if each element g of a finite-index subgroup of Gamma can be written as a product g = x_1 x_2 . x_r of a bounded number of elements of X, such that the word length of each x_i is bounded by a constant times the word length of g. A.Lubotzky, S.Mozes, and M.S.Raghunathan observed in 1993 that SL(n,Z) is quasi-isometrically boundedly generated by the elements of its natural SL(2,Z) subgroups. We generalize (a slightly weakened version of) this by showing that every S-arithmetic subgroup of an isotropic, almost-simple Q-group is quasi-isometrically boundedly generated by standard Q-rank-1 subgroups.
A particle in equilibrium with a bath realizes worldline supersymmetry

We study the relation between the partition function of a non--relativistic particle, in one spatial dimension, that describes the equilibrium fluctuations implicitly, and the partition function of the same system, deduced from the Langevin equation, that describes the fluctuations explicitly, of a bath with additive white--noise properties using Monte Carlo simulations for computing the correlation functions that satisfy the corresponding identities. We show that both can be related to the partition function of the corresponding, maximally supersymmetric, theory with one--dimensional bosonic worldvolume, by appropriate analytic continuation, from Euclidian to real time, and that they can all describe the same physics, since the correlation functions of the observables satisfy the same identities for all systems.The supersymmetric theory provides the consistent closure for describing the fluctuations. Therefore supersymmetry is relevant at the scale in which equilibrium with the bath is meaningful. At scales when the "true" degrees of freedom of the bath can be resolved (e.g. atoms and molecules for the case of thermal fluctuations) the superpartners become "hidden". They can be, always, revealed through the identities satisfied by the correlation functions of the appropriate noise field, however. In fact, the same formalism applies whatever the "microscopic" origin of the fluctuations. Therefore, all consistently closed physical systems are supersymmetric--and any system that is explicitly not invariant under supersymmetric transformations, is, in fact, open and, therefore, incomplete.
Evidence of fermion-to-boson crossover in the fermionic two-leg flux ladder

We study the crossover between fermions and bosons in a system of two coupled one-dimensional chains subjected to a gauge flux (two-leg flux ladder), with both attractive and repulsive interaction. In the presence of strong attractive nearest-neighbour interaction and repulsive next-to-nearest-neighbour interaction, the system crosses into a regime in which fermions form tightly-bound pairs, which behave as bosonic entities. By means of numerical simulations based on the density-matrix-renormalization-group (DMRG) method, we analyze such crossover in specific limits. We show in particular that in the strongly-paired regime, the gauge flux induces a quantum phase transition of the Ising type from vortex density wave (VDW) to a charge density wave (CDW), characteristic of bosonic systems.
