description: The application of transparent conducting oxides in electronic devices like solar cells or displays is common. By transferring this technology to quantum sensing and computing in the form of microwave conductors, it is possible to benefit from the advantages of these materials. By using indium tin oxide (ITO), it is demonstrated that at an arbitrary position below the conductor, an arbitrary elliptical microwave polarization can be produced by two independent sources. This is independent of the geometry and size of the ITO, whereby a non-resonant microwave approach can be chosen. Using single nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in diamond in combination with a cross-like ITO structure, each NV center can be addressed with an ideal (clockwise or anticlockwise) microwave polarization. By optimizing the coupling of the microwave field to the NV centers and minimizing the conductor size, the creation of smaller devices compared to common approaches is possible.

description: Oncogenesis of Ewing sarcoma (EwS), the second most common malignant bone tumor of childhood and adolescence, is dependent on the expression of chimeric EWSR1-ETS fusion oncogenes, most often EWSR1-FLI1 (E/F). E/F expression leads to dysregulation of focal adhesions (FAs) enhancing the migratory capacity of EwS cells. Here, we show that, in EwS cell lines and tissue samples, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is expressed and phosphorylated at Y397 in an E/F-dependent way involving Ezrin. Employing different EwS cell lines as in vitro models, we found that key malignant properties of E/F are mediated via substrate-independent autophosphorylation of FAK on Y397. This phosphorylation results in enhanced FA formation, Rho-dependent cell migration, and impaired caspase-3-mediated apoptosis in vitro. Conversely, treatment with the FAK inhibitor 15 (1,2,4,5-benzenetetraamine tetrahydrochloride (Y15) enhanced caspase-mediated apoptosis and EwS cell migration, independent from the respective EWSR1-ETS fusion type, mimicking an anoikis-like phenotype and paralleling the effects of FAK siRNA knockdown. Our findings were confirmed in vivo using an avian chorioallantoic membrane model and provide a first rationale for the therapeutic use of FAK inhibitors to impair metastatic dissemination of EwS.

description: Motivated by applications in data center networks, in this paper, we study the problem of scheduling in an input queued switch. While throughput maximizing algorithms in a switch are well-understood, delay analysis was developed only recently. It was recently shown that the well-known MaxWeight algorithm achieves optimal scaling of mean queue lengths in steady state in the heavy-traffic regime, and is within a factor less than $2$ of a universal lower bound. However, MaxWeight is not used in practice because of its high time complexity. In this paper, we study several low complexity algorithms and show that their heavy-traffic performance is identical to that of MaxWeight. We first present a negative result that picking a random schedule does not have optimal heavy-traffic scaling of queue lengths even under uniform traffic. We then show that if one picks the best among two matchings or modifies a random matching even a little, using the so-called flip operation, it leads to MaxWeight like heavy-traffic performance under uniform traffic. We then focus on the case of non-uniform traffic and show that a large class of low time complexity algorithms have the same heavy-traffic performance as MaxWeight, as long as it is ensured that a MaxWeight matching is picked often enough. We also briefly discuss the performance of these algorithms in the large scale heavy-traffic regime when the size of the switch increases simultaneously with the load. Finally, we perform empirical study on a new algorithm to compare its performance with some existing algorithms.

description: This deliverable outlines a first prototype version of the optimisation model used in CactoOpt, the CACTOS infrastructure optimisation tool. The purpose of this deliverable is to demonstrate interfacing of the optimisation model with preliminary characterization templates describing workloads and infrastructures, i.e. model representations of cloud application workloads (describing virtual machine deployment, configuration, and load) and the data centre (hardware) resources they are executed on. This deliverable additionally shows the integration of CactoOpt in the overall architecture of CACTOS and discusses use cases and optimisation capabilities supported by the first CactoOpt prototype. CactoOpt is designed using a sensor-actuator model where the optimisation engine’s view of the surrounding world is captured in a set of infrastructure topology and load models (sensors) and the actions the optimisation engine can use to affect data centre resources (actuators) are represented using an optimisation plan language (describing a set of infrastructure actions recommended to optimise data centre layout and operation). The model does not assume that all recommended optimisation actions are immediately taken, but rather views these as a set of recommendations the optimizer gives to an external party (e.g., a virtualisation middleware integration implementation or a systems administrator) as part of a greater optimisation plan. This document describes CACTOS deliverable D3.1 – a prototype optimisation model designed for use in CactoOpt. As described in this document, the CactoOpt tool is one of the three main tools in the CACTOS toolkit and this document is related primarily to two other CACTOS year 1 deliverables: CACTOS deliverable D5.2.1 - CACTOS Toolkit Version 1 (2014) that describes the overall design and architecture of the toolkit, and CACTOS deliverable D5.1 - Model Integration and Supporting Tooling (2014) that details the construction of infrastructure topology and workload models and the integration of the different tools in the toolkit based on these models.

description: When designing and analyzing randomized algorithms, one usually assumes that a sequence of uniformly distributed, independent random variables is available as a source of randomness. Implementing these algorithms, however, one has to use pseudorandom numbers. The quality of the used pseudorandom number generator may severely influence the quality of an algorithm’s output. We examined the effect of using low quality pseudorandom numbers on the performance of different search heuristics like Simulated Annealing and a basic evolutionary algorithm.

description: A central task of educational research is to examine common issues of teaching and learning in all subjects taught at school. At the same time, the focus is on identifying and investigating unique subject-specific aspects on the one hand and transdisciplinary, generalizable effects on the other. This poses various methodological challenges for educational researchers, including in particular the aggregation and evaluation of already published study effects, hierarchical data structures, measurement errors, and comprehensive data sets with a large number of potentially relevant variables. In order to adequately deal with these challenges, this paper presents the core concepts of four methodological approaches that are suitable for the analysis of transdisciplinary research questions: meta-analysis, multilevel models, latent multilevel structural equation models, and machine learning methods. Each of these approaches is briefly illustrated with an example inspired by the interdisciplinary research project FALKE (subject-specific teacher competencies in explaining). The data and analysis code used are available online at https://osf.io/5sn9j. Finally, the described methods are compared, and some application hints are given.
title: Preservation of the geological and industrial heritage of a post-mining landscape by the example of the glacial Muskau Arch
Creators: name:  Löwen ,   Kersten
Publisher: name: Deutsche Geologische Gesellschaft - Geologische Vereinigung e.V. (DGGV)
Year: 2021

description: The Muskau Arch in the border triangle of Brandenburg-Saxony-Poland is a push moraine that was folded up by the Muskau Glacier during the second Elster surge about 340,000 years ago. In the process, it folded the underlying strata to a depth of approx. 270–290m. It is considered one of the best examples worldwide of large-scale glaciotectonic deformation. As a result of the compression, lignite, glass sands and clays, were pushed to the surface, and a flourishing raw material extraction and processing industry developed between 1840 and 1970. Today, the region is an attractive natural area with 300 to 400 partly coloured post-mining lakes and has developed into a diversified cultural landscape. Numerous projects in the area aim to carry on this closely linked geological and industrial heritage and make it tangible for the people in the region. For example, the narrow-gauge railway once built to transport goods and supply the factories is now operating again since the 1980s as a museum railway to tell the story of the forest railway and the former industrial region. Large open-cast mines that shaped the landscape for a long period are now being recultivated, taking into account their glacial history and incorporating relics in the form of erratic boulders as design elements. Former industrial buildings, such as the old brickworks in Klein Kölzig, are also being integrated into the sustainable development of the region and nowadays serve as Geopark's office on the one hand and illustrate industrial processes of brick production on the other.

description: Genetic polymorphisms mapped in the ARG1 locus (chr6:131894344-131905472) and their functional effects on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have not been thoroughly elucidated to date. The present study aimed to investigate an association between variant alleles at ARG1 locus and T2DM in patients. Two ARG1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were characterized in a representative sample of 500 patients with T2DM and 500 healthy volunteers. Serum lipid profile was studied by spectrophotometric analysis, while serum arginase-1 concentrations were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The regions, encompassing target SNPs (rs2781665 and rs2781666), were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and genotypes were assigned by restriction digestions. A statistically significant increase was observed in the serum hs-CRP and arginase-1 levels in the subjects with T2DM than in controls (P

description: The theoretical and experimental evaluation of using biomimetic antenna arrays (BMAAs) in an angle sensing radar system is presented. This ultra compact antenna system can enhance the angle estimation accuracy for radar systems which allow only small antenna separations due to the limited available space. A quality criterion will be given to indicate which BMAA parameters are necessary to achieve precise angle estimation accuracy. Radar measurements show a reduction in the RMS angle estimation error by a factor of 2 compared to conventional antenna systems of the same size.

description: Recently, deep learning models have been widely spread in the industrial recommender systems and boosted the recommendation quality. Though having achieved remarkable success, the design of task-aware recommender systems usually requires manual feature engineering and architecture engineering from domain experts. To relieve those human efforts, we explore the potential of neural architecture search (NAS) and introduce AMEIR for Automatic behavior Modeling, interaction Exploration and multi-layer perceptron (MLP) Investigation in the Recommender system. The core contributions of AMEIR are the three-stage search space and the tailored three-step searching pipeline. Specifically, AMEIR divides the complete recommendation models into three stages of behavior modeling, interaction exploration, MLP aggregation, and introduces a novel search space containing three tailored subspaces that cover most of the existing methods and thus allow for searching better models. To find the ideal architecture efficiently and effectively, AMEIR realizes the one-shot random search in recommendation progressively on the three stages and assembles the search results as the final outcome. Further analysis reveals that AMEIR's search space could cover most of the representative recommendation models, which demonstrates the universality of our design. The extensive experiments over various scenarios reveal that AMEIR outperforms competitive baselines of elaborate manual design and leading algorithmic complex NAS methods with lower model complexity and comparable time cost, indicating efficacy, efficiency and robustness of the proposed method.

description: In the age of surveillance capitalism, the prevailing business model underlying the use of social media applications (“apps”) foresees the exchange of personal data for the allowance to use an online service. Such a data business model comes with many potential negative side effects ranging from violation of privacy issues to election manipulation. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to think of alternatives to the current data business model. The present study investigated how strong the support would be for a monetary payment model among a sample of 210 participants. Participants were asked about their willingness to pay for social media, if in turn their data would be private and other problems concerning social media use would be tackled. Only one-fifth of participants (21.43%) supported such a model. From the Big Five personality traits, Agreeableness was positively associated with support of such a model. Finally, data are also provided on how much participants would be willing to pay for social media on a monthly basis. The present study’s findings are of a preliminary nature and will contribute to the start of an important discussion.

description: Here, we map a series of stalagmites from Asturias, Spain, by laser ablation inductively-coupled-plasma mass spectrometry and confocal laser scanning (fluorescence) microscopy and discuss the origins of trace element and fluorescence variations. Seasonal banding is evident with both methods and may be attributed to lignins/humic acids based on fluorescence absorption and emission characteristics. Some lateral variations in fluorescence present as saw-tooth “spires” and demonstrate disruptions of seasonal banding, corroborated by trace element variations (most prominently Mg and Na). Such features likely reflect the differential partitioning of trace elements by sectoral zoning as a result of low supersaturation and/or high organic matter load, combined with the effects of dissolved organic matter on the calcite growth surface and the association of each element with colloidal organic matter. The lateral variability of trace elements demonstrates the pitfalls of obtaining trace element information from one-dimensional transects without prior reconnaissance mapping. It is, however, possible that traditional drilling with ~1 mm holes homogenizes these features and provides reliable trace element estimates.

description: Solving geometric tasks involving point clouds by using machine learning is a challenging problem. Standard feed-forward neural networks combine linear or, if the bias parameter is included, affine layers and activation functions. Their geometric modeling is limited, which motivated the prior work introducing the multilayer hypersphere perceptron (MLHP). Its constituent part, i.e., the hypersphere neuron, is obtained by applying a conformal embedding of Euclidean space. By virtue of Clifford algebra, it can be implemented as the Cartesian dot product of inputs and weights. If the embedding is applied in a manner consistent with the dimensionality of the input space geometry, the decision surfaces of the model units become combinations of hyperspheres and make the decision-making process geometrically interpretable for humans. Our extension of the MLHP model, the multilayer geometric perceptron (MLGP), and its respective layer units, i.e., geometric neurons, are consistent with the 3D geometry and provide a geometric handle of the learned coefficients. In particular, the geometric neuron activations are isometric in 3D, which is necessary for rotation and translation equivariance. When classifying the 3D Tetris shapes, we quantitatively show that our model requires no activation function in the hidden layers other than the embedding to outperform the vanilla multilayer perceptron. In the presence of noise in the data, our model is also superior to the MLHP.

Modeling pulsed evolution and time-independent variation improves the confidence level of ancestral and hidden state predictions
Creators: name: Gao, Yingnan

Year: 2022

description: Ancestral state reconstruction is not only a fundamental tool for studying trait evolution, but also very useful for predicting the unknown trait values (hidden states) of extant species. A well-known problem in ancestral and hidden state predictions is that the uncertainty associated with predictions can be so large that predictions themselves are of little use. Therefore, for meaningful interpretation of predicted traits and hypothesis testing, it is prudent to accurately assess the uncertainty of the predictions. Commonly used constant-rate Brownian motion (BM) model fails to capture the complexity of tempo and mode of trait evolution in nature, making predictions under the BM model vulnerable to lack-of-fit errors from model misspecification. Using empirical data (mammalian body size and bacterial genome size), we show that the distribution of residual Z-scores under the BM model is neither homoscedastic nor normal as expected. Consequently, the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of predicted traits are so unreliable that the actual coverage probability ranges from 33% (strongly permissive) to 100% (strongly conservative). Alternative methods such as BayesTraits and StableTraits that allow variable rates in evolution improve the predictions but are computationally expensive. Here we develop RasperGade, a method of ancestral and hidden state prediction that uses the Levy process to explicitly model gradual evolution, pulsed evolution and time-independent variation. Using the same empirical data, we show that RasperGade outperforms both BayesTraits and StableTraits and is orders-of-magnitude faster. Our results suggest that, when predicting the ancestral and hidden states of continuous traits, the tempo and mode of evolution should always be assessed and the quality of confidence estimates should always be examined.

description: C3 protein toxins produced by Clostridium (C.) botulinum and C. limosum are mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases, which specifically modify the GTPases Rho A/B/C in the cytosol of monocytic cells, thereby inhibiting Rho-mediated signal transduction in monocytes, macrophages, and osteoclasts. C3 toxins are selectively taken up into the cytosol of monocytic cells by endocytosis and translocate from acidic endosomes into the cytosol. The C3-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of Rho proteins inhibits essential functions of these immune cells, such as migration and phagocytosis. Here, we demonstrate that C3 toxins enter and intoxicate dendritic cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Both immature and mature human dendritic cells efficiently internalize C3 exoenzymes. These findings could also be extended to the chimeric fusion toxin C2IN-C3lim. Moreover, stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy revealed the localization of the internalized C3 protein in endosomes and emphasized its potential use as a carrier to deliver foreign proteins into dendritic cells. In contrast, the enzyme C2I from the binary C. botulinum C2 toxin was not taken up into dendritic cells, indicating the specific uptake of C3 toxins. Taken together, we identified human dendritic cells as novel target cells for clostridial C3 toxins and demonstrated the specific uptake of these toxins via endosomal vesicles.

Testing for unit roots based on sample autocovariances

description: We propose a new unit-root test for a stationary null hypothesis $H_0$ against a unit-root alternative $H_1$. Our approach is nonparametric as $H_0$ only assumes that the process concerned is $I(0)$ without specifying any parametric forms. The new test is based on the fact that the sample autocovariance function (ACVF) converges to the finite population ACVF for an $I(0)$ process while it diverges to infinity for a process with unit-roots. Therefore the new test rejects $H_0$ for the large values of the sample ACVF. To address the technical challenge `how large is large', we split the sample and establish an appropriate normal approximation for the null-distribution of the test statistic. The substantial discriminative power of the new test statistic is rooted from the fact that it takes finite value under $H_0$ and diverges to infinity under $H_1$. This allows us to truncate the critical values of the test to make it with the asymptotic power one. It also alleviates the loss of power due to the sample-splitting. The test is implemented in a user-friendly R-function.

Effective loop quantum gravity framework for vacuum spherically symmetric space-times

description: We develop an effective framework for the $\barμ$ scheme of holonomy corrections motivated by loop quantum gravity for vacuum spherically symmetric space-times. This is done by imposing the areal gauge in the classical theory, and then expressing the remaining components of the Ashtekar-Barbero connection in the Hamiltonian constraint in terms of holonomies of physical length $\ell_{\rm Pl}$. The stationary solutions to the effective Hamiltonian constraint can be found exactly, and we give the explicit form of the effective metric in Painlevé-Gullstrand coordinates. This solution has the correct classical limit, the quantum gravity corrections decay rapidly at large distances, and curvature scalars are bounded by the Planck scale, independently of the black hole mass $M$. In addition, the solution is valid for radii $x \ge x_{\rm min} \sim (\ell_{\rm Pl}^2 M)^{1/3}$ indicating the need for a matter field, with an energy density bounded by the Planck scale, to provide a source for the curvature in the space-time. Finally, for $M \gg m_{\rm Pl}$, the space-time has an outer and also an inner horizon, within which the expansion for outgoing radial null geodesics becomes positive again. On the other hand, for sufficiently small $M \sim m_{\rm Pl}$, there are no horizons at all in the effective metric.
