Bayesian Sketches for Volume Estimation in Data Streams
Authors: Dalt Francesco Da , Scherrer Simon , Perrig Adrian 
Published: February 2023

Given large data streams of items, each attributable to a certain key and possessing a certain volume, the aggregate volume associated with a key is difficult to estimate in a way that is both efficient and accurate. On the one hand, exact counting with dedicated counters incurs unacceptable overhead during stream processing. On the other hand, sketch algorithms, i.e., approximate-counting techniques that share counters among keys, have suffered from a trade-off between accuracy and query efficiency: Classic sketch algorithms allow to compute rough estimates in an efficient way, whereas more recent proposals yield highly accurate estimates at the cost of greatly increased computation time.In this work, we propose three sketch algorithms that overcome this trade-off, computing highly accurate estimates with lightweight procedures. To reconcile these desiderata, we employ novel estimation methods that rely on Bayesian probability theory, counter-cardinality information, and basic machine-learning techniques. The combination of these techniques enables highly accurate estimates, which we demonstrate by both a theoretical worst-case analysis and an experimental evaluation. Concretely, our sketches allow to efficiently produce volume estimates with an average relative error of < 4%, which previous methods could only achieve with computations that are several orders of magnitude more expensive.

A Priori Analysis of a Symmetric Interior Penalty Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method for a Dynamic Linear Viscoelasticity Model
Authors: Jang Yongseok , Shaw Simon 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
The stress-strain constitutive law for viscoelastic materials such as soft tissues, metals at high temperature, and polymers can be written as a Volterra integral equation of the second kind with a fading memory kernel.
This integral relationship yields current stress for a given strain history and can be used in the momentum balance law to derive a mathematical model for the resulting deformation.
We consider such a dynamic linear viscoelastic model problem resulting from using a Dirichlet–Prony series of decaying exponentials to provide the fading memory in the Volterra kernel.
We introduce two types of internal variable to replace the Volterra integral with a system of auxiliary ordinary differential equations and then use a spatially discontinuous symmetric interior penalty Galerkin (SIPG) finite element method and – in time – a Crank–Nicolson method to formulate the fully discrete problems: one for each type of internal variable.
We present a priori stability and error analyses without using Grönwall’s inequality and with the result that the constants in our estimates grow linearly with time rather than exponentially.
In this sense, the schemes are therefore suited to simulating long time viscoelastic response, and this (to our knowledge) is the first time that such high quality estimates have been presented for SIPG finite element approximation of dynamic viscoelasticity problems.
We also carry out a number of numerical experiments using the FEniCS environment (https://fenicsproject.org), describe a simulation using “real” material data, and explain how the codes can be obtained and all of the results reproduced.
Evaluation of guaiacyl lignin aromatic structures using 13CO2 administered Ginkgo biloba L. xylem by quantitative solid- and liquid-state 13C NMR
Authors: Miyata Sonoka , Aoki Dan , Matsushita Yasuyuki , Takeuchi Miyuki , Fukushima Kazuhiko 
Published: February 2023

Abstract

Ginkgo biloba L. saplings were cultivated in an airtight growth chamber with 13CO2 for two months. The 13C ratio of the newly developed xylem region was ca. 85%, evaluated by high lateral resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry and thioacidolysis/GC-MS. Quantitative solid-state 13C direct polarisation/magic angle spinning (DP/MAS) NMR measurements with high-speed MAS of 70.0 kHz were conducted for cutting-milled wood (CMW), ball-milled wood (BMW), and enzymatically saccharified lignin (EL) samples. In addition, quantitative liquid-state 13C NMR measurements were carried out for EL in DMSO-d
6. Major lignin aromatic signals were classified into three groups of aromatic carbons of C–H, C–C, and C–O, and their area ratio was compared within these measurements. EL samples in solid- and liquid-state showed nearly the same results. However, the results for CMW and BMW in solid-state NMR suggest the structural alteration of lignin within the sample preparation procedure, including ball milling.
Characterization of rutting resistance of warm-modified asphalt mixtures tested in a dynamic shear rheometer
Authors: Abd Duraid M. , Ahmed Taher M. , Ahmed Thamer Y. 
Published: February 2023

Abstract
The current study aims to evaluate the rutting resistance of warm miox asphalt (WMA) taking into consideration the influence of production temperature. Rediset WMX, Sasobit, and Rediset LQ were used to manufacture WMAs. WMA was manufactured at 125°C (for a modified soft binder, 100/150) and 135 and 145°C (for a modified hard binder, 40/60), while the control hot mix asphalt (HMA) was manufactured at 145 and 155°C for soft and hard binder, respectively. Although WMAs manufactured using hard binder (40/60) were successfully produced at a temperature 20°C lower than that for the control HMA, its rutting performance was inferior to that of the control HMA with both Rediset LQ and Rediset WMX; while the rutting performance of the Sasobit-modified hard binder–asphalt mixture was equal to that of HMA because Sasobit increases the stiffness of binder. On the other hand, all WMAs produced at a temperature of 145°C performed better than or equal to HMA. In summary, binder grade has an important role in the dosage of additive, performance, and the reduction of the manufacturing temperature of WMA; on the other hand, WMA additives delay the degradation of rutting rate for mixes, the results also showed that WMAs have an equal performance to or better performance than that of conventional HMA.

How does one Cosmotheoretically Respond to the Heat Death of the Universe?
Authors: White Joel 
Published: February 2023

AbstractThis article asks what an adequate philosophical response to the certainty of heat death would be: the moment in the timeline of the universe when all possible energy transformations have been actualized and life, thought, and action cease to be possible. Through a reading of Hans Jonas’s existential work on Gnosticism, the article begins by defining what is meant by the notions cosmotheoretical and cosmoethical as well as offering a description of what Jonas calls “cosmic nihilism.” After this, the article looks at two extreme philosophical responses to heat death. The first response examined is by Friedrich Nietzsche, whose eternal return is shown to be a reactive philosophical response to the linear entropic finitude that heat death implies. The second response is by Ray Brassier. Different from Nietzsche, Brassier is shown to affirm the extinction that heat death promises. However, his insistence that heat death partakes of the transcendentalandthe real, but not the ideal, is demonstrated to be amphibolous. In the final part of the article, I offer what could be called a thermodynamic architectonic response to the heat death of the universe, arguing that heat death should be understood as a guiding transcendental Idea in the Kantian sense of the term.
Effects of Resistance Training on Pain Control and Physical Function in Older Adults With Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review With Meta-analysis
Authors: Syroyid Syroyid Ivan , Cavero-Redondo Ivan , Syroyid Syroyid Bohdan 
Published: February 2023

Background and Purpose:
Low back pain (LBP) has a high prevalence in older adults and is associated with elevated health care costs. This systematic review and meta-analysis examines the effects of progressive resistance training (PRT) interventions on physical function (PF) and pain control in community-dwelling older adults with chronic LBP.

Methods:
A meta-analysis applying the quality effect method was performed by calculating the effect sizes (ESs) using the Cohen d with a 95% CI. A subgroup analysis was performed according to the participant and intervention characteristics. The statistical significance of differences between subgroups was calculated using a Z-test. Study bias was estimated using the version 2 of the Cochrane risk of bias tool for randomized trials (RoB 2.0) and quality of evidence (Qi) index. Small study effect/publication bias was estimated using the Doi plot and Luis Furuya-Kanamori (LFK) index. The systematic search was conducted in major databases for clinical trials published between January 1, 1990, and January 9, 2021. The inclusion criteria were articles that (1) were peer-reviewed; (2) had participants' mean age of more than 60 years; (3) studied PRT interventions; (4) had participants with LBP; (5) measured LBP or PF outcomes; (6) measured PF in terms of functionality; (7) were randomized controlled trials; (8) and non–randomized controlled trials. The exclusion criteria were (1) articles not written in English, (2) nonexperimental studies, and (3) repeated publications.

Results and Discussion:
Twenty-one studies were included (n = 1661). Clear improvements were found in PF (ES = 0.32 [95% CI, 0.05-0.58]; I
2 = 75.1%; P < .001), but results on LBP decrease were inconclusive (ES = 0.24 [95% CI, −0.05 to 1.10]; I
2 = 75.7%; P < .001). The overall evidence of this aggregated data meta-analysis of clinical trials is level C+. Main limitations are the use of aggregated data and the large heterogeneity between studies.

Conclusions:
The Qi of this meta-analysis is level I (C+). We concluded that PRT interventions are useful for PF improvement in older adults with generalized LBP, LBP not arising from lumbar spinal stenosis, and having body mass index less than 27. In older adults with LBP not arising from lumbar spine stenosis, PRT interventions also decrease LBP. Interventions should have a frequency of at least 3 sessions per week. In addition, at a lower level of evidence IV (C+), we recommend that interventions with a duration of more than 12 weeks should be considered, whenever possible.
Calbindin-Expressing CA1 Pyramidal Neurons Encode Spatial Information More Efficiently
Authors: Gu Liqin , Ren Minglong , Lin Longnian , Xu Jiamin 
Published: February 2023

AbstractHippocampal pyramidal neurons (PNs) are traditionally conceptualized as homogeneous population. For the past few years, cumulating evidence has revealed the structural and functional heterogeneity of hippocampal pyramidal neurons. But thein vivoneuronal firing pattern of molecularly identified pyramidal neuron subclasses is still absent. In this study, we investigated the firing patterns of hippocampal PNs based on different expression profile of Calbindin (CB) during a spatial shuttle task in free moving male mice. We found that CB+ place cells can represent spatial information more efficiently than CB− place cells, albeit lower firing rates during running epochs. Furthermore, a subset of CB+ PNs shifted their theta firing phase during rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep states compared with running states. Although CB− PNs are more actively engaged in ripple oscillations, CB+ PNs showed stronger ripple modulation during slow-wave sleep (SWS). Our results pointed out the heterogeneity in neuronal representation between hippocampal CB+ and CB− PNs. Particularly, CB+ PNs encode spatial information more efficiently, which might be contributed by stronger afferents from the lateral entorhinal cortex to CB+ PNs.
The impact of COVID-19 on the assessment and management of ectopic pregnancies
Authors: Chung Bethany , Greene Charlotte , Pearson Alice , Starrs Lisa M , Colin Duncan W 
Published: February 2023

Lay Summary
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the public delayed seeking medical help, which may have affected the impact of having an ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy is when pregnancy tissue grows outside its normal position in the womb, and it can be life-threatening. It can be treated by non-surgical or surgical options, and any delay in seeking help can reduce the options for treatment and increase the need for more urgent management. We wanted to assess whether there were differences in the presentation and management of ectopic pregnancies in a major teaching hospital between 2019 (pre-COVID-19) and 2021 (COVID-19 period). We found that the pandemic did not cause a delay in seeking medical help or cause worse outcomes. In fact, immediate surgical treatment and time in the hospital were less during COVID-19, perhaps because of a desire to avoid admission to hospital. One outcome of COVID-19 is reassurance that we can safely use more non-surgical treatments for ectopic pregnancies.

There is a need for tools that integrate single‐cell multi‐omic data while addressing several integrative challenges simultaneously. To this end, we designed a deep‐learning based tool LIBRA that performs competitively in both “integration” and “prediction” tasks based on single‐cell multi‐omics data. Furthermore, when assessing the predictive power across data modalities, LIBRA outperforms existing tools. LIBRA and its adaptive scheme aLIBRA, allow automatic fine‐tuning for users with limited effort. Additionally, aLIBRA allows experienced users to implement custom configurations. The LIBRA toolbox is freely available as R and Python libraries.BackgroundSingle‐cell multi‐omics technologies allow a profound system‐level biology understanding of cells and tissues. However, an integrative and possibly systems‐based analysis capturing the different modalities is challenging. In response, bioinformatics and machine learning methodologies are being developed for multi‐omics single‐cell analysis. It is unclear whether current tools can address the dual aspect of modality integration and prediction across modalities without requiring extensive parameter fine‐tuning.MethodsWe designed LIBRA, a neural network based framework, to learn translation between paired multi‐omics profiles so that a shared latent space is constructed. Additionally, we implemented a variation, aLIBRA, that allows automatic fine‐tuning by identifying parameter combinations that optimize both the integrative and predictive tasks. All model parameters and evaluation metrics are made available to users with minimal user iteration. Furthermore, aLIBRA allows experienced users to implement custom configurations. The LIBRA toolbox is freely available as R and Python libraries at GitHub (TranslationalBioinformaticsUnit/LIBRA).ResultsLIBRA was evaluated in eight multi‐omic single‐cell data‐sets, including three combinations of omics. We observed that LIBRA is a state‐of‐the‐art tool when evaluating the ability to increase cell‐type (clustering) resolution in the integrated latent space. Furthermore, when assessing the predictive power across data modalities, such as predictive chromatin accessibility from gene expression, LIBRA outperforms existing tools. As expected, adaptive parameter optimization (aLIBRA) significantly boosted the performance of learning predictive models from paired data‐sets.ConclusionLIBRA is a versatile tool that performs competitively in both “integration” and “prediction” tasks based on single‐cell multi‐omics data. LIBRA is a data‐driven robust platform that includes an adaptive learning scheme.
Mentions des zoophytes chez Platon, Aristote et certains commentateurs byzantins : l’occasion d’un discours sur l’homme
Authors: Minas Julie 
Published: February 2023

AbstractThis article sets out to explore different roles that the mention of zoophytes can play into some texts of Plato, Aristotle and byzantine commentators. Thus, the staging of the life of the marine lung in the Philebus represents a possible horizon of regression to be kept in mind, and not, as in John Philopon, a stage of man's formation that will necessarily be surpassed. For the latter, as for Aristotle, evoking zoophytes is a way of resolving the question of the frontier between living animals and plants by postulating the continuity between the plant and animal orders.
