user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Investigating Directed Information'.

assistant: **Concept**

This research investigates a new measure that arises in information theorycalled directed information. Recent advances, including our preliminary results, shows thatdirected information arises in communication as the maximum rate that can be transmitted reliablyin channels with feedback. The directed information is multi-letter expression and therefore veryhard to optimize or compute.Our plan is first of all to find an efficient methodology for optimizing the measure using thedynamic programming framework and convex optimization tools. As an important by-product offinding the fundamental limits is finding coding schemes that achieves the limits. Second, weplan to find new roles for directed information in communication, especially in networks withbi-directional communication and in data compression with causal conditions. Third, encouraged bya preliminary work on interpretation of directed information in economics and estimation theory,we plan to show that directed information has interpretation in additional fields such asstatistical physics. We plan to show that there is duality relation between different fields withcausal constraints. Due to the duality insights and breakthroughs in one problem will lead to newinsights in other problems. Finally, we will apply directed information as a statisticalinference of causal dependence. We will show how to estimate and use the directed informationestimator to measure causal inference between two or more process. In particular, one of thequestions we plan to answer  is the influence of industrial activities (e.g., $\text{CO}_2$volumes) on the global warming.Our main focus will be to develop a deeper understanding of the mathematical properties ofdirected information, a process that is instrumental to each problem.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Developing new analytical techniques and materials for monitoring and protecting metal artefacts and monuments from the Mediterranean region' (PROMET) targeting Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Museums and historical sites in the Mediterranean region are made up of collections from Phoenician, Hellenistic, Roman, and Islamic periods that are witnesses to that past. However, objects made of metals tend to suffer the most in terms of their prese rvation. The high relative humidity and sea salt contained in the air does not help the situation, where if these metal objects are left untreated and unprotected they may become completely mineralised. The preventive strategy taken to avoid such losse s will differ from most European countries, since it is not practical to demand that such collections be housed in strict environmentally controlled areas or retreated on a regular basis, given the extent of such collections and the economies of these c ountries. Our project proposes to establish and promote a preventive strategy designed for the Mediterranean region by developing an approach to monitor and protect metals collections using state of the art portable scientific techniques and new corros ion inhibitors and/or coatings that are safe and effective to use.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'New Horizons of Parameterized Complexity' (NewPC) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Parameterized Complexity (PC) provides an approach to moving beyond classic worst-case analysis of algorithms by focusing on multivariate algorithms whose performance is influenced by several parameters beyond input size. While it has been successful in various algorithmic domains, particularly those involving discrete objects like graphs, sets, matroids, or Boolean formulas, PC remains underutilized in areas involving geometric and algebraic objects such as points, vectors, linear spaces, or matrices. This project seeks to revolutionize the PC field by developing novel multivariate algorithms for continuous optimization problems involving such objects. The performance of these algorithms—whether measured by approximation ratio, probability error, or running time—is highly sensitive to multiple parameters.The main challenge in advancing parameterized complexity to these new domains is the need for suitable algorithmic and complexity tools. To address this challenge, the NewPC project proposes to revisit and revise fundamental methods for handling geometric and algebraic objects—such as dimension reduction, sampling, sketching, clustering, and coresets—through the conceptual questions of PC, including determining proper parameterization, quantifying the distance from triviality, and identifying when kernelization is possible.In short, the proposed Research Program can be summarized as:Questions of PC + Geometric Methods = New HorizonsThe proposed research will open new horizons in parameterized complexity by- Advancing multivariate approximation and lossy kernelization, both emerging areas within parameterized complexity.- Establishing multivariate algorithmic analysis as the standard tool for designing provably correct and efficient algorithms in domains such as computa

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Old Books, New Worlds: Early Modern English Printed Drama in Australia and New Zealand', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The proposed research project has a two-pronged aim. Firstly, it examines copies of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century playbooks held in Australian and New Zealand libraries in order to bring a transnational framing to the reception history of the culturally influential literary genre of early modern English drama. Secondly, it examines how data relating to these copies can be presented to the international scientific community in a way that foregrounds these copies’ specific geographic and political contexts, in line with approaches to the decolonisation of knowledge that reflect the books’ Southern Hemisphere settler colonial locations. Scholars in the field of book history are beginning to confront this field’s reliance on material artefacts (i.e. rare books) that were acquired and preserved with the aid of wealth obtained in problematic circumstances, but thus far the focus of such confrontations has been Northern Hemisphere copies and collections. In creating outputs focused instead on data drawn from inspections of Southern Hemisphere collections of rare books, and in developing an online resource that provides an international model for how to acknowledge problematic acquisition histories in culturally sensitive ways, “Old Books, New Worlds: Early Modern English Printed Drama in Australia and New Zealand” offers a significant and transformative intervention in the field of book history. It is relevant both to the 2023-2024 Work Programme to produce “Innovative research on the European cultural heritage and the cultural and creative industries – building our future from our past” and also to the 2023-2024 Work Programme to facilitate “A human-centred and ethical development of digital technologies”.

user: Explain how 'MAGHEAT: understanding energy deposition in the solar chromosphere' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

The mechanisms that heat the solar chromosphere and corona, and that drive the solar dynamo, arguably remain some of the foremost questions in solar and stellar physics. Here, we focus on the question of how energy is transported and released in the solar chromosphere. During the past 20 years, numerical simulations of the chromosphere have been used, with increasing degree of sophistication, to validate various proposed heating mechanisms. These studies have gradually come to recognise that the mechanisms that are likely dominant may be different in different parts of chromospheric fine structures. To make progress, we therefore need constraints from highly resolved observational data.Recently, I implemented an inversion code that allows estimates of the overall chromospheric heating from spatially and spectrally resolved observational maps. Our results have unveiled very finely structured heating distributions with much larger amplitudes than the hitherto assumed canonical values. But a limitation is that this implementation cannot directly discriminate between the different heating mechanisms that have been proposed.The goal of MAGHEAT is to identify what mechanisms are heating the chromosphere, characterize the energy flux that is being released into the chromosphere and separate the contribution from each mechanism in active regions and flares. This goal is achievable with the combination of the proposed development of novel non-LTE inversion methods, new hybrid rMHD/particle simulations, and the availability of datasets with unprecedented high spatial resolution, large field-of-view, and high S/N ratio from DKIST, the Sunrise III mission, NASA’s IRIS satellite and updated instrumentation at the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope. We will use observational data from these

user: Draft an impact statement for 'The Role of the Vertical Dimension in Memory and Navigation', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

For any animal, including humans, the ability to remember where an important place is and to navigate to it efficiently are vital, as taking a wrong direction can mean finding death instead of finding home. Studies have investigated the cognitive and neurological mechanism governing these abilities, but they have focused mainly on one specific type of environment – flat surfaces extended only in the horizontal dimensions. However, the world is not flat. Every day we navigate in vertical environments, both natural (hills, mountains) and man-made (stairs, stories of a building). Therefore, it is important to understand how humans perceive, memorize and process spatial information in order to find a goal in a three-dimensional world. The vertical dimension adds a unique quality to the environment because it is parallel to the force of gravity. In fact, navigating on a tilted surface requires more effort compared to a flat plane, and this increased energy demand renders the vertical dimension perceptually and cognitively salient. Furthermore, navigation on a vertically extended surface provides a suite of multimodal sensory activations, which differ from locomotion on a horizontal surface, as a consequence of kinesthetic, proprioceptive, vestibular and visual stimuli. Therefore, vertical environments involve a different sensory experience compared to horizontal environments.Volunteer students will be recruited for a series of behavioral studies. The general procedure will consist of a goal-finding paradigm: an object will be hidden in an environment with a vertical component, and participants will have to navigate and find it. Manipulations on the environment (e.g., degree of inclination, availability of landmarks or other cues) will reveal what is the role of the vertical

user: Explain how 'Theoretical and experimental analysis of the critical phenomena in magnetically nano-engineered superconductors' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

In the last decade, hybrid nanostructures incorporating super-conducting (SC) and ferromagnetic (FM) metal components have become one of the most interesting study objects. The exciting new feature of SC/FM hybrids is the competition between ferromagnetism and superconductivity, representing two antitheses in condensed matter physics (CMT), which is of abiding interest in fundamental and applied materials science. The aim of this project is to investigate a new class of phenomena, based on interaction between FMs and SCs when brought together within a nanometre scale. For this purpose, the applicant, M. Milosevic from Antwerp (Belgium) intends to spend two years in the Experimental Nanosciences Group of Prof. Simon Bending in Bath (UK), and receive extensive training ranging from a detailed acquaintance with experimental techniques to learning new computational and analytical approaches developed in Bath CMT Group.Within this study, the applicant will consider both theoretically and experimentally the novel quantum ground state and kinetic properties of SC/FM hybrids, such as SC-films with embedded magnetic nano-clusters, SC/FM multilayers, and submicron size hybrid circuits. In the long term, new emergent quantum phenomena will be found and understanding of the physics involved will eventually lead to novel guiding principles for enhancing the material and device functionalities via combining the specific properties of ferromagnets and superconductors.The realization of the project objectives in the world-recognized group of Prof. Bending will enable the applicant to gain formal scientific independence and permanent position at the University of Antwerp. The auxiliary training, especially its experimental part, will be crucial for the future independent career of the r

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Clustered Atomic Layer Deposition for Emerging micRoelectonic Applications' (CALDERA).

assistant: **Concept**

A less-well known aspect of Moore's law is the need for increased drive current of the transistors. In addition to traditional dimensional scaling, recent work to improve the drive current is increasingly based on alternative materials with higher carrier mobility. When replacing silicon with III-V compound semiconductors as the channel material in CMOS devices, the main problem is the passivation of the interface between the channel and the gate dielectric due to defects created at the III-V surface by the formation of native oxides. It is important to either remove these defects or avoid their formation before the deposition of the gate dielectric to achieve acceptable electronic performance. The most promising gate dielectric for III-V materials is Al2O3 when grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD). Although ALD Al2O3 provides native-oxide-free interfaces with GaAs, the interface defect density is still much larger than on silicon and it is necessary to avoid the oxidation of the surface prior to gate dielectric deposition. Since GaAs has been reported as being deposited epitaxially by ALD, this will be a means to generate defect free surfaces. But to be effective, this must be combined with a clustered deposition of Al2O3 without any air break. The use of in-situ analysis tools in combination with a clustered deposition tool provide an ideal means to study the initial stages of ALD on III-V surfaces and the interface formation since all air exposure will be avoided. In-situ analysis during ALD has been done before, but never with a combination of analysis tools used on the same sample. Since no prior tools combining clustered ALD of both GaAs and Al2O3 and in-situ characterization techniques exist, a major part of the proposed work will be the design and the assembly

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Reducing animal experimentation in pre-clinical predictive drug testing by human hepatic in vitro models derived from embryonic stem cells'.

assistant: **Concept**

The objective of the proposal is to establish stable cell lines that reliably reflect human hepatic properties by the development of models derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESC). The aim is to deliver reliable in vitro models that can be used by the pharmaceutical industry to replace experimental animals in investigations on human drug metabolism, uptake and efflux properties of compounds in the drug discovery and development processes. In the pharmaceutical industry reliable in vitro cell models would replace current techniques and animal experimentation in the selection and optimisation of lead compounds and in documentation of a selected drug candidate before it enters clinical phases.The means to accomplish the objective are in addition to hESC derived hepatocytes, (1) 3D-hepatic cell methods, (2) micro-cultivation monitoring for in vitro screening, (3) genomic and metabolomic characterization, and (4) a multi-micro-bioreactors for high-throughput screening of drug candidates. Comparative studies with established in vitro models will be carried out to validate the new models/methods.The outcome of the project is new pre-validation models which will reduce the use of animal experimentation for prediction of human drug metabolism and disposition by 60-80%. In addition, the models will also increase safety and quality of compounds chosen as candidates in the different stages of the drug discovery and development process. Furthermore, it will strengthen the possibility for SMEs to market new potential products for assays and in vitro screening.The clinical expertise in the project includes two renowned European university hospitals, one SME founded by another European university hospital, and a larger pharmaceutical company.

user: Explain how 'International KARSTological school Sustainable MAnagement of natural Resources on karsT""' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Karst is a landscape on water-soluble rocks, which cover around 35 % of Europe. It provides unique habitat to rare animals. About 25 % of the world's population drinks water from karst aquifers, and karst is also rich in other natural resources. Karst phen omena are an attraction for tourists. Therefore karst is also of a great economic significance. But due to specific characteristics it is very vulnerable and any human activity might be a potential threat to it. For its conservation and sensible planning o f life in it Europe needs experts with comprehensive knowledge on karst and karst processes. Karstology as a multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary science covers a very wide field of interests, which are usually on universities not integrated in a unified st udy programme and most researchers stay specialised within their particular topic. Additional training, especially of younger researchers is therefore necessary in order to strengthen the European leadership in karst research. The main objective of the pro posed events is to bring together researchers of karst from different basic scientific disciplines as well as managers and public officials, and especially to facilitate and advance the transfer of knowledge from experienced to early-stage researchers. A c omprehensive review on the important topics of the thematic area Sustainable development, global change and ecosystems will be given by renowned experts through keynote lectures and field work, with the emphasis on the combination of theoretical principles and practical applications. Young researchers will also have the opportunity to present and discuss the results of their research work.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Quantum fluctuations in optical and electromechanical measurements'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Quantum mechanics imposes a fundamental limit to the accuracy of physical measurements. This limit can now be reached in optical and microwave experiments. For interferometric length measurements, the project VIRGO (an Italo-French project) for the detection of gravitational waves has motivated a precise and thorough evaluation of ultimate quantum limits. Very precise measurements are also possible in microwave experiments but little work has been done about the effect of quantum fluctuations in such measurements. The aim of the thesis is to study theoretically the effect of quantum fluctuations in different kinds of optical and microwave measurements. Using the analogies between electrical and optical measurements, we can extend all the results which have already been obtained in optics to electrical systems. Electrical systems also presents some interesting specificities that we intend to exploit. Precise results are expected for quantum limits in electrical position measurement.
