user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Determination of emission sound pressure level and sound power level in situ' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

ObjectivesThe project will:- develop new qualification requirements for the test environment to be used when applying a revised standard ISO 3747(to become EN later) for the determination of sound power levels in situ and to improve a Nordtest proposal for a new method, a future ISO 11205" using sound intensity for the determination of emission sound pressure levels- carry out comparison measurements to determine the measurement uncertainty of EN ISO 11201, EN ISO 11202 and EN ISO 11204 and the new "11205" for the determination of emission sound pressure levels in situ, and ISO 3747(under revision)and ISO/DIS 9614-2 for the determination of sound power levels in situ- analyze the test results in order to propose improvements which will reduce the measurement uncertainty of the standards tested and which later can be incorporated in revised versions of the standards- Both random and systematic errors will be studied.State of progressThe results indicate that the revised ISO 3747 has no significant bias and that the standard deviation of reproducibility is that of an engineering method. ISO 9614-2 yields a small underestimate of the sound power level in relation to the one determined according to ISO 3741. The reproducibility standard deviation of EN ISO 11 201 and EN ISO 11 202 is better than 2 dB. EN ISO 11 202 has a bias. The emission sound pressure levels are overestimated. The standard could be improved and the overestimate diminished if the maximum, allowable local environmental correction is increased from 2,5 dB to 4 dB. EN ISO 11 204 is difficult to implement and its range of validity is difficult to foresee. The reproducibility standard deviation of ISO 11 205 is about 2 dB. The method has a bias. Normally the emission sound pressure level is underestimated. If

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'A Model for Predicting Perceived Quality of Audio-visual Speech based on Automatic Assessment of Intermodal Asynchrony' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

In recent years, there has been a marked increase in communication technologies and computer interfaces that operate within the audio-visual speech domain, (e.g. video-telephony, synthesised avatars, etc). Faithful synchrony between the visual and acoustic speech elements of such technologies is of great importance in ensuring that they are perceived by end-users as operating at high and optimal quality levels. The effect of intermodal asynchrony on user-perceived quality is typically assessed using subjective evaluation techniques. A system for automatically assessing asynchrony levels, and predicting quality degradation on that basis, would therefore be both desirable and useful, and will have direct application to techniques for automatic synchrony adjustment.The proposed project will examine audio-visual speech as both spoken naturally by humans and as artificially synthesised by machines, and will employ subjective assessment techniques and machine learning in a combined iterative semi-automatic strategy for producing a Quality Prediction Model. Different levels of intermodal asynchrony will first be assessed by human subjects, who will be required to score the effect of the asynchrony levels on perceived speech quality using standardisedtechniques that will be modified for use with multimodal speech. Asynchrony patterns and their corresponding subjective assessment scores will be automatically learned by machines, resulting in an initial Quality Prediction Model. The initial model will be tested using data that will be simultaneously assessed by humans, using the subjective assessment techniques, above. Theoutput from the prediction model will be directly compared with the subjective scores, providing an initial evaluation of the model's performance. The model wil

user: Explain how 'TRAINING AND MENTORING YOUNG SCIENTISTS FROM CANDIDATE, ASSOCIATED AND MEDITERRANEAN COUNTRIES IN A WHOLE FOOD CHAIN APPROACH TO QUALITY AND SAFETY' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

There is a need to reconnect the food chain by improving the transparency and accountability of systems. This is particularly important in Central and Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean. The project aims to increase knowledge and networking for initially 40 Early career animal scientists (ECS) through training and mentoring in a whole food chain approach to meat safety and quality. Mentoring will be supported by a multidisciplinary steering group representing stakeholders in the chain. The ECS will be selected on personal attributes and the quality of RTD concept notes submitted. A selection will be developed into full proposals for future EU programmes. Training events will provide awareness of EU research and the challenges of the whole food chain approach. The ECS will lead the research development process to ensure that the issues are relevant to their countries. A symposium/round table discussion, led by the ECS, to involve the meat chain industry and stakeholders will give wider exposure and ensure relevance of the proposals. Training in presentational and eLearning techniques will assist in further dissemination (train the trainers). eLearning materials will be developed to form a key part of the dissemination process, supported by networks created in the target countries in co-operation with the EAAP contacts, FP6-Food NCPs and the parent research centres of the ECS. Four regional dissemination events targeted at over 300 stakeholders will be organised for interaction, dissemination of research, promotion of eLearning packages, training of other ECS and meat chain industries and feedback of RTD ideas relevant to target country needs. The proposal fits the aims of Theme 5-Food and to aiding co-operation with new, associate and candidate countries. It will provi

user: Explain how 'Molecular, genetic and cellular study of grapevine seedless genotypes from different origins as new genetic sources for innovation in table grapevine breeding' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Nowadays situation in the EU and global table grape market with out of season fresh or raisin produce is quite challenging:  grape growers meet a rapidly increasing interest and different demands for appreciated quality traits. Table grape production rapidly shifted from seeded grapes to a seedless which is greatly prized by consumers, commercially valuable agronomic trait and a new trend both for fresh grapes and raisins production. Due to advances in technology and possibility to use different sources of seedlessness with different genetic backgrounds this field has the potential for rapid transformation in the table grapevine production especially relevant in EU and Armenia. The general goal of GRAPEINNOVATION is to widen the genetic sources of seedlessness in grapevine, as a contribution to increase the genetic diversity and as a source of innovation in combining valuable traits for breeding of elite table and raisin grape cultivars. In this proposal I will perform a multidisciplinary approach to understand the cellular, genetic and molecular basis of seedlessness in different grapevine variants. I plan to identify seedless genotypes from diverse origins and to shed light on the genetic and molecular basis of parthenocarpy and its use in the production of table and raisins seedless varieties. In this way, I will open a plethora of possibilities for my future research and career. Grapevine genetic resources with different sources of seedlessness can be valuable material for the improvement of table grape production, competitiveness of breeding programs promoting the economic growth and national agriculture autonomy in EU and Armenia. The proposed project will be implemented in the VITIGEN research groups at the Instituto de Ciencias de la Vid y del Vino (ICVV) (Logro

user: Describe how 'A targeted knockout screen for identification of Leishmania membrane transporters required for infection of macrophages' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Leishmaniases are among the world's most neglected diseases. It´s causative agent - Leishmania - is transmitted by the bite of a sand fly. In the host, the parasite is taken up by macrophages and proliferates in the harsh conditions of the host phagolysosome. Currently available drugs for treatment present major drawbacks, urging the need for more effective, safer, and cheaper drugs. The molecular and cellular mechanisms that enable Leishmania to subvert macrophage defence mechanisms and cause disease remain largely unclear. Thanks to modern comparative transcriptomic analysis, the identification of hundreds of genes overexpressed in intracellular amastigote forms was possible for the first time and identified cell surface proteins, transporters, peptidases and many uncharacterized genes with possible roles in host-pathogen interactions. Only recently, a high-throughput gene editing method based on CRISPR-Cas9 allowed for the first time easy manipulation of Leishmanias´ complex genome and rapid functional analysis of genes.For over 50 years membrane transporters have been extensively studied in kinetoplastida, due to their role in the intrinsic parasite nutrient needs, defence from host immune attack and uptake of drug formulations. Despite these efforts a large number of such transporters expressed in amastigotes remain uncharacterized. The present project proposes (1) the generation of a library of 48 L. mexicana mutants by systematic CRISPR-Cas9 mediated knockout of amastigote-upregulated genes encoding membrane transporters, (2) Identification of membrane transporters required for viability of the promastigote parasite form and the (3) Identification of membrane transporters required for differentiation into amastigotes, macrophage infection, intracellular survival.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Integrated information system for order planning, control and cost estimation in laser job shops'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Todays general market situation can be characterised by intense global competition, shorter product-life cycles and an increasing product variety. The survival of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) depends heavily on the ability to satisfy changing customer demands very quickly. Compared with common SMEs, Laser Job Shops can be characterised as small enterprises with 5 to 40 employees having very short planning horizons of some hours up to a maximum of 10 days and a very heterogeneous product spectrum. In order to produce their wide variety of offered products more efficiently, Laser Job Shops need a tool that will assist them in order planning and control to shorten delivery time and to improve the transparency of the actual loading situation. Most of the Laser Job Shops already have high quality support in the sense of technical information systems, such as CAD/CAM integration. But they still lack of an improved and affordable order planning, control and cost estimation system that can be integrated in their existing technical information system environment. Currently available production planning and control systems (PPC) are not flexible enough to support the user in such short time cycles as typical for Laser Job Shops. The reason for their insufficient flexibility is that they provide too many functions that are not used by SMEs since their manufacturing process can be mostly described as a one step production. PPC systems simply are too oversized for Laser Job Shops. Furthermore, available systems are too expensive and difficult to learn to be implemented easily in a company that has only 5-40 employees. This is why Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V.(LZH), one of Europe's largest research and development institutes in the field of laser machining, and the Institu

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Moduli Spaces associated with Singularities' (ModSingLDT) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The aim of this project is to investigate enumerative invariants of the Hilbert schemes parametrizing zero-dimensional subschemes of some basic classes of surface singularities as well as of its higher rank analogues, and find connections between these enumerative invariants and the Chern-Simons theories on the links of the singularities. This question will open brand new relations between algebraic and topological invariants of these singularities. The main tool to approach the problem will be to develop representations of vertex algebras on the cohomologies or derived categories of these moduli spaces conjecturally giving rise to analogues of the Nekrasov parition function on the singularities. Then we will use recent new developements about a specific motivic measure with values in the Grothendieck ring of geometric dg categories to prove some simplification of the aimed correspondence. In the end we will raise these simplified results to the general level.This project will allow the researcher to broaden his area of expertise as well as to develop new directions in his research lines. He will complement his knowledge in low-dimensional topology at one of the most prestigious research institutes and under the guidance of one of the worldwide leaders in this field.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Combinatorial methods, from enumerative topology to random discrete structures and compact data representations' (EXPLOREMAPS) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Our aim is to built on recent combinatorial and algorithmic progress to attack a series of deeply connected problems that have independantly surfaced in enumerative topology, statistical physics, and data compression. The relation between these problems lies in the notion of ""combinatorial map"", the natural discrete mathematical abstraction of objects with a 2-dimensional structures (like geographical maps, computer graphics' meshes, or 2d manifolds). A whole new set of properties of these maps has been uncovered in the last few years under the impulsion of the principal investigator. Rougly speaking, we have shown that classical graph exploration algorithms, when correctly applied to maps, lead to remarkable decompositions of the underlying surfaces. Our methods resort to algorithmic and enumerative combinatorics. In statistical physics, these decompositions offer an approach to the intrinsec geometry of discrete 2d quantum gravity: our method is here the first to outperform the celebrated ""topological expansion of matrix integrals"" of Brezin-Itzykson-Parisi-Zuber. Exploring its implications for the continuum limit of these random geometries is our great challenge now. From a computational geometry perspective, our approach yields the first encoding schemes with asymptotically optimal garanteed compression rates for the connectivity of triangular or polygonal meshes. These schemes improve on a long series of heuristically efficient but non optimal algorithms, and open the way to optimally compact data structures. Finally we have deep indications that the properties we have uncovered extend to the realm of ramified coverings of the sphere. Intriguing computations on the fundamental Hurwitz's numbers have been obtained using the ELSV formula, famous for its use by Ok

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Low temperature near-net powder metallurgy route for the manufacture of complex shaped wear resistant parts', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The project is aimed at increasing the competitiveness of SMEs in a large and growing market whilst conserving raw materials and energy consumption.  The overall effect will be to open new sales and employment opportunities for European Powder Metallurgy SMEs by developing an innovative manufacturing process specifically aimed at the equipment capabilities of the great majority of small companies in that sector.The main deliverables from the project will be the composition of novel HSS alloy powder(s) together with defined sintering conditions (e.g. atmosphere, temperature profile etc) for the manufacture of near-net shape, high density HSS components. The technical objectives are to determine the composition of HSS material(s) that can be sintered at temperatures not above 1150(0)C and with a process window of ±15(0)C and identify the sintering parameters required to process the novel powders to produce parts which exhibit at least 98% density, have 20% higher mechanical properties (hardness, toughness, modulus) and tolerances on as-sintered parts compared to other HSS parts sintered at 1150(0)C are within 1.5% of the designed geometry.Description of the Work:The research approach will be to identify potential elemental additions to HSS that will have the effect of depressing the solidus temperature in the phase diagram.  One approach will use Mo, Co and Cr, which are elements that are considered likely to fulfil this role, when heated in a nitrogen-rich atmosphere. The PM process will then be developed based on achieving the optimum balance between alloy composition and sintering conditions whilst minimising materials costs. The other approach will use the principle of reaction sintering to lower the temperature at which the densification occurs. Small quantities of A

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'The Research Infrastructures Consortium of NCPs for H2020'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The overall objective of RICH-2 is to strengthen the capacities of and cooperation among NCPs in the area of Research Infrastructures (including e-infrastructures) and to provide high quality support and services to programme applicants and the Research Infrastructure (RI) community at large with the view to increase the quality of RI proposals in the area. The RICH-2 overall approach starts from the main idea that the NCP role requires both good knowledge about Horizon 2020 and scientific priorities as well as skills and competences to convey a message in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary environment. RICH-2 is in continuity with the RICH project, building on its experience and achievements.RICH-2 continues giving full and sound support to help RIs NCPs being reliable and concrete sources of knowledge. All activities are tailored according to the nature of the area, and the priorities of the RI NCPs through various mechanisms (seminars and conferences, specific and horizontal trainings, exchange scheme). Special attention is given to further enhance the competence of NCPs, including helping new/less experienced NCPs and NCPs in those countries with low levels participation in the RI programme to rapidly acquire the know-how accumulated already in other countries. The promotion of trans-national and virtual access (TA/VA), the synergies within the RIs network and with other NCPs networks, and understanding RIs relevant policies and international cooperation oriented measures for research infrastructures remain the core activities, as well as to spread awareness on the importance of the RI opportunities in the RI Programme and beyond. Specific services (Joint Proposal Check Service, Webinars on TA/VA open calls, evetns) for RI applicants are scheduled in order to co
