description: It is shown that the Dirac-Nambu-Goto brane can be described as a point particle in an infinite dimensional space with a particular metric. This can be considered as a special case of a general theory in which branes are points in the brane space ${\cal M}$, whose metric is dynamical, just like in general relativity. Such a brane theory, amongst others, includes the flat brane space, whose metric is the infinite dimensional analog of the Minkowski space metric $η_{μν}$. A brane living in the latter space will be called "flat brane"; it is like a bunch of non-interacting point particles. Quantization of the latter system leads to a system of non-interacting quantum fields. Interactions can be included if we consider a non trivial metric in the space of fields. Then the effective classical brane is no longer a flat brane. For a particular choice of the metric in the field space we obtain the Dirac-Nambu-Goto brane. We also show how a Stueckelberg-like quantum field arises within the brane space formalism. With the Stueckelberg fields, we avoid certain well-known intricacies, especially those related to the position operator that is needed in our construction of effective classical branes from the systems of quantum fields.

The estimation of semiparametric generalized linear models
Creators: name: Puang-Ngern, Busayasachee
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: In this thesis, a novel method for fitting the semiparametric generalized linear model (SPGLM) is developed and tested. We demonstrate that this provides an effective model fitting algorithm to the SP-GLM, particularly, when dealing with very large data sets. We also propose another special SP-GLM and discuss how to fit this special model. This special SP-GLM assumes the canonical link function, which simplifies the algorithm to fit this model. GLMs are widely used for data analysis. However, in some applications, GLMs do not perform well in model fitting when the selected distribution for the response data is inaccurate.The SP-GLM with a nonparametric reference density extends the conventional GLMs. The SP-GLM offers flexibility in regression modelling by relaxing the requirement of a known response distribution in GLMs to only require that the response variable has a distribution from some exponential family. However, a limitation has been observed in the application of the existing SP-GLM method (Huang, 2014) on large data sets, presumably due to the significant increase in the number of constraints for the SP-GLM for large sample sizes. The proposed new SP-GLM methods in this thesis will enable to fit SP-GLM to very large data sets. In this research, the focus is on the regression coefficients estimations and inferences. An iterative algorithm is developed for estimation of the regression coefficients and the reference density simultaneously. The asymptotic properties of the estimators subject to active constraints are also provided. Performance of the proposed methods are tested through simulation studies and real data applications. The simulation results have indicated effectiveness for the methods proposed in this research, with accurate estimation of the regression coefficients, as well as inference. The conclusion reached in this research is that the proposed model fitting methods enhance the capacity of the SP-GLM to handle very large data sets with fast convergence.

Subjects: subject: Cryptography and Security (cs.CR)

description: Cryptoprimitives rely on thorough theoretical background, but often lack basic usability features making them prone to unintentional misuse by developers. We argue that this is true even for the state-of-the-art designs. Analyzing 52 candidates of the current CAESAR competition has shown none of them have an avalanche effect in authentication tag strong enough to work properly when partially misconfigured. Although not directly decreasing their security profile, this hints at their security usability being less than perfect. Paper details available at crcs.cz/papers/memics2016

description: We present 450 and 850 micron submillimetre continuum observations of the IC5146 star-forming region taken as part of the JCMT Gould Belt Survey. We investigate the location of bright submillimetre (clumped) emission with the larger-scale molecular cloud through comparison with extinction maps, and find that these denser structures correlate with higher cloud column density. Ninety-six individual submillimetre clumps are identified using FellWalker and their physical properties are examined. These clumps are found to be relatively massive, ranging from 0.5to 116 MSun with a mean mass of 8 MSun and a median mass of 3.7 MSun. A stability analysis for the clumps suggest that the majority are (thermally) Jeans stable, with M/M_J < 1. We further compare the locations of known protostars with the observed submillimetre emission, finding that younger protostars, i.e., Class 0 and I sources, are strongly correlated with submillimetre peaks and that the clumps with protostars are among the most Jeans unstable. Finally, we contrast the evolutionary conditions in the two major star-forming regions within IC5146: the young cluster associated with the Cocoon Nebula and the more distributed star formation associated with the Northern Streamer filaments. The Cocoon Nebula appears to have converted a higher fraction of its mass into dense clumps and protostars, the clumps are more likely to be Jeans unstable, and a larger fraction of these remaining clumps contain embedded protostars. The Northern Streamer, however, has a larger number of clumps in total and a larger fraction of the known protostars are still embedded within these clumps.

Numerical Electromagnetic Frequency Domain Analysis with Discrete Exterior Calculus
Creators: name: Chen, Shu
name: Chew, Weng Cho
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Computational Physics (physics.comp-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we perform a numerical analysis in frequency domain for various electromagnetic problems based on discrete exterior calculus (DEC) with an arbitrary 2-D triangular or 3-D tetrahedral mesh. We formulate the governing equations in terms of DEC for 3D and 2D inhomogeneous structures, and also show that the charge continuity relation is naturally satisfied. Then we introduce effective signed dual volume to incorporate material information into Hodge star operators and take into account the case when circumcenters fall outside triangles or tetrahedrons, which may lead to negative dual volume without Delaunay triangulation. Then we demonstrate the implementation of various boundary conditions, including perfect magnetic conductor (PMC), perfect electric conductor (PEC), Dirichlet, periodic, and absorbing boundary conditions (ABC) within this method. An excellent agreement is achieved through the numerical calculation of several problems, including homogeneous waveguides, microstructured fibers, photonic crystals, scattering by a 2-D PEC, and resonant cavities.

Reading the Sky and The Spiral of Teaching and Learning in Astronomy
Creators: name: Eriksson, Urban
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Physics Education (physics.ed-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This theoretical paper introduces a new way to view and characterize teaching and learning astronomy. It describes a framework, based on results from empirical data, analyzed through standard qualitative research methodology, in which a theoretical model for vital competencies of learning astronomy is proposed: Reading the Sky. This model takes into account not only disciplinary knowledge but also disciplinary discernment and extrapolating three-dimensionality. Together, these constitute the foundation for the competency referred to as Reading the Sky. In this paper, I describe these concepts and how I see them being connected and intertwined to form a new competency model for learning astronomy and how this can be used to inform astronomy education to better match the challenges students face when entering the discipline of astronomy: The Spiral of Teaching and Learning. Two examples are presented to highlight how this model can be used in teaching situations.

description: This study aimed at evaluating the most effective commercialisation pathway (smallholder and inclusive) and its impacts on productivity and welfare on smallholder rice farmers in the pathways versus rain-fed farmers in Mbarali District. Output and input commercialisation indices (CCI and ICI) and propensity score matching were used for data analysis. The overall output commercialisation was more than half of the produced rice (CCI=59%) but the use of improved inputs in the study area was low (ICI = 27%). The proportion of rice sold was higher in the inclusive pathway (80%) relative to smallholder pathway (70%) and rain-fed scheme (41%). Total factor productivity ranged between 1.17 - 1.21 and 0.98 – 1.02 in the smallholder and inclusive pathways respectively more than that in the rain-fed scheme. In terms of welfare, inclusive pathway was better-off relative to the two groups. Therefore, both smallholder and inclusive pathways should be adopted to explore the synergies.

description: We show that it is possible to use Bondy-Chvatal closure to design an FPT algorithm that decides whether or not it is possible to cover vertices of an input graph by at most k vertex disjoint paths in the complement of the input graph. More precisely, we show that if a graph has tree-width at most w and its complement is closed under Bondy-Chvatal closure, then it is possible to bound neighborhood diversity of the complement by a function of w only. A simpler proof where tree-depth is used instead of tree-width is also presented.

description: We consider a cognitive radio network in a multi-channel licensed environment. Secondary user transmits in a channel if the channel is sensed to be vacant. This results in a tradeoff between sensing time and transmission time. When secondary users are energy constrained, energy available for transmission is less if more energy is used in sensing. This gives rise to an energy tradeoff. For multiple primary channels, secondary users must decide appropriate sensing time and transmission power in each channel to maximize average aggregate-bit throughput in each frame duration while ensuring quality-of-service of primary users. Considering time and energy as limited resources, we formulate this problem as a resource allocation problem. Initially a single secondary user scenario is considered and solution is obtained using decomposition and alternating optimization techniques. Later we extend the analysis for the case of multiple secondary users. Simulation results are presented to study effect of channel occupancy, fading and energy availability on performance of proposed method.

VAFB-1971-01: AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, April 1970 to May 1971
Creators: name: Zalud, Arianna
Year: 1971

description: This document is a progress report for the ongoing archaeological survey of Vandenberg Air Force Base initiated during the Summer of 1969 as a general archaeological reconnaissance of selected areas of the base. In Fiscal Year 1971, the survey was continued as an intensive archaeological survey of all base lands, the purpose being to make a complete inventory of existing archaeological resources. Approximately forty percent of the base lands were surveyed and a total of 208 archaeological sites were recorded and mapped, 30 of which had previously been listed in the University of California Archaeological Survey records. The immediate objective of the ongoing survey was to map and record any archaeological sites located on Vandenberg lands and the data collected, once completed, incorporated into the author's doctoral thesis.
Oncogenic signalling in BRAF/RAS wild type melanoma

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Selective inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway has significantly improved the survival of patients with BRAF V600 - mutant advanced melanoma. However, BRAF / RAS wild type (WT) melanomas have no known actionable mutations, and immune checkpoint inhibitors remain the only effective therapy for patients with this melanoma subtype. In this PhD project, we explored the signalling activity and response of BRAF / RAS WT melanomas to combination small molecule inhibitors. In Chapter 2, we investigated MAPK dependency in 23 melanoma cell lines, including 10 BRAF V600 - mutant and 13 BRAF / RAS WT (seven NF1 - mutant and six triple WT) melanomas. Melanoma cell lines were treated with the MEK inhibitor trametinib, and the impact of MEK inhibition on cell survival and proliferation were examined. We showed that BRAF / RAS WT melanomas had variable responses to MEK inhibition; 23% were highly sensitive, indicating dependency on MAPK signalling for survival and proliferation, whereas 38% were resistant, and this was commonly associated with high mutation burden and loss - of - function mutation s in NF1. We demonstrated that NF1 loss conferred MEK inhibitor resistance in BRAF V600 - mutant cells but not in BRAF / RAS WT melanomas. The mutational profiles of BRAF / RAS WT melanomas revealed concurrent mutations in RASopathy genes, and enrichment of TP53 mutations. In Chapter 3, we explored the precise contribution of p53 loss to MEK inhibitor resistance in our panel of melanoma cells. We also examined the efficacy of a p53 activator in combination with MEK inhibition on suppressing melanoma proliferation. Finally, in Chapter 4, the activity of oncogenic signalling pathways in BRAF/RAS WT melanoma cell lines was examined and the activity of combination inhibitors targeting activated cascades w as tested .

As a second application, we give an alternative proof that the framed little 2-disks operad is formal.

Subjects: subject: Social and Information Networks (cs.SI)

description: In many Twitter studies, it is important to know where a tweet came from in order to use the tweet content to study regional user behavior. However, researchers using Twitter to understand user behavior often lack sufficient geo-tagged data. Given the huge volume of Twitter data there is a need for accurate automated geolocating solutions. Herein, we present a new method to predict a Twitter user's location based on the information in a single tweet. We integrate text and user profile meta-data into a single model using a convolutional neural network. Our experiments demonstrate that our neural model substantially outperforms baseline methods, achieving 52.8% accuracy and 92.1% accuracy on city-level and country-level prediction respectively.

description: We have fabricated 5 nm ultra-thin NbN nanowires that form a dense and regular array in the linear channels of mesoporous SBA-15 silica substrates. Bulk NbN is a well-known classical superconductor with Tc of 16 K. We show that, by being incorporated into this nanostructure, the composite material exhibits typical quasi-one-dimensional characteristics. We compare the superconducting properties with those of superconducting Pb nanowires of same dimensionality in identical configuration within the linear SBA-15 pores. While Pb nanowire arrays show a pronounced crossover from 1D superconductivity at high temperatures to a 3D bulk superconducting state in the low temperature regime with true zero resistance triggered by transversal Josephson interaction, this transition appears to be completely absent in the NbN nanowire array. The small coherence length in NbN, which strongly suppresses the Josephson coupling is discussed as the origin of this difference.

description: In this paper we construct a new type of cavity array, in each cavity of which multiple two-level atoms interact with two independent photon modes. This system can be totally governed by a two-mode Dicke-lattice model, which includes all of the counter-rotating terms and therefore works well in the ultrastrong coupling regime achieved in recent experiments. Attributed to its special atom-photon coupling scheme, this model supports a global conserved excitation and a continuous $U(1)$ symmetry, rather than the discrete $Z_{2}$ symmetry in the standard Dicke-lattice model. This distinct change of symmetry via adding an extra photon mode strongly impacts the nature of photon localization/delocalization behavior. Specifically, the atom-photon interaction features stable Mott-lobe structures of photons and a second-order superfluid-Mott-insulator phase transition, which share similarities with the Jaynes-Cummings-lattice and Bose-Hubbard models. More interestingly, the Mott-lobe structures predicted here depend crucially on the atom number of each site. We also show that our model can be mapped into a continuous $XX$ spin model. Finally, we propose a scheme to implement the introduced cavity array in circuit quantum electrodynamics. This work broadens our understanding of strongly-correlated photons.

description: Understanding the properties of drip line nuclei requires to take into account the correlations with the continuum spectrum of energy of the system. This paper has the purpose to show that the continuum single particle level density is a convenient way to consider the pairing correlation in the continuum. Isospin mean-field and isospin pairing strength are used to find the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) and Lipkin-Nogami (LN) approximate solutions of the pairing Hamiltonian. Several physical properties of the whole chain of the Tin isotope, as gap parameter, Fermi level, binding energy, and one- and two-neutron separation energies, were calculated and compared with other methods and with experimental data when they exist. It is shown that the use of the continuum single particle level density is an economical way to include explicitly the correlations with the continuum spectrum of energy in large scale mass calculation. It is also shown that the computed properties are in good agreement with experimental data and with more sophisticated treatment of the pairing interaction.

description: Selective monitoring and targeted identification of various noxious ions have received significant attention in biology, industry and environments. Herein, we developed an easily available colorimetric and fluorescence sensor (PZ) based on phenazine derivative, successfully achieving the discriminative detection of Hg2+ and CN− ions. Compared with other interfering ions, PZ had high sensitivity and specificity towards Hg2+ and CN−. The lowest limits of Hg2+ and CN- by PZ were 1.52 × 10−8 M and 7.05 × 10−7 M, respectively. Significantly, this chemosensor PZ allowed visual monitoring of toxic Hg2+ and CN− ions in a few seconds, presenting a great potential in the practical application (skin-whitening cosmetic, water samples, and nutlet). Such an effective strategy is expected to offer some guidance for distinguishing the identification of toxic ions in optical sensing.

description: We investigate anomalous strong lens systems, particularly the effects of weak lensing by structures in the line of sight, in models with long-lived electrically charged massive particles (CHAMPs). In such models, matter density perturbations are suppressed through the acoustic damping and the flux ratio of lens systems are impacted, from which we can constrain the nature of CHAMPs. For this purpose, first we perform $N$-body simulations and develop a fitting formula to obtain non-linear matter power spectra in models where cold neutral dark matter and CHAMPs coexist in the early Universe. By using the observed anomalous quadruple lens samples, we obtained the constraints on the lifetime ($τ_{\rm Ch}$) and the mass density fraction ($r_{\rm Ch}$) of CHAMPs. We show that, for $r_{\rm Ch}=1$, the lifetime is bounded as $τ_{\rm Ch} < 0.96\,$yr (95% confidence level), while a longer lifetime $τ_{\rm Ch} = 10\,$yr is allowed when $r_{\rm Ch} < 0.5$ at the 95% confidence level. Implications of our result for particle physics models are also discussed.

description: Liver flukes are parasitic flatworms that can infect humans and other mammals. In this study, freshwater snails from Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province in Iran were investigated for the presence of liver fluke larvae. The snails were collected from various rivers and analysed using standard morphological and molecular techniques. Additionally, molecular identification of the collected snails was conducted through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing of the COI gene. The freshwater snails were identiﬁed as Physella acuta (Draparnaud, 1805), Galba truncatula (O.F. Müller, 1774), Radix euphratica (Mousson, 1874), Radix auricularia (Linnaeus, 1758) and Planorbis planorbis (Linnaeus, 1758). The presence of larval stages of Fasciola spp. in individual snails was examined using stereomicroscopy and a crushing method. Morphological and molecular identification based on the ITS-1 marker for identifying Fasciola spp. revealed that 10.9% (59 out of 549) of R. auricularia and 5.8% (37 out of 630) of P. acuta were infected. A blastn analysis of the collected samples revealed that all isolates belonged to F. hepatica, indicating a potential risk of liver fluke infection in the study area. These findings emphasise the importance of regular surveillance and control measures to prevent the spread of these parasites.

Scheduling solution

description: The thesis focuses on designing a hardware solution and building an optimal scheduling solution for automating ELISA assays used in clinical diagnostics. The hardware solution consists of a cylindrical robot running on a rail which integrates stand-alone instruments. The scheduling algorithm provides software solution which provides a framework of automation. Assays running on such an automated platform have unique requirements which differentiate their scheduling from ordinary job shop scheduling problems. The first difference is that an assay cannot wait at any stage once it has entered the system. Thus waiting time has to be zero. This is a rigid requirement, not found in job shop scheduling. The second difference is that a resource/machine can be used again and again after first processing has finished. This means an assay can return to the same machine after undergoing some operations at other machines. These two requirements and different needs of different assays make this problem fairly complicated. Two scheduling algorithms are developed–Earliest Fit and Exhaustive Enumeration. The former is used in industry and is non-optimal, while the latter yields optimal solution. Exhaustive Enumeration is a procedure in which all possible schedules are formed. This is followed by discarding duplicate schedule by using the technique of pattern recognition. Finally, the schedule, which is optimal, is selected

description: Giant clams play a vital role in the preservation of coral reef ecosystems; however, the population of juvenile Tridacna sp. has experienced a decline primarily attributed to low survival rates, overfishing, marine pollution and the effects of climate change. Light intensity reportedly influences the growth and survival of giant clams. They possess the ability to thrive in oligotrophic tropical marine environments by utilising photosynthates from symbiotic zooxanthellae (Symbiodiniaeae). This study assessed the impact of different light intensities and wavelengths on growth rate (GR) and survival rate (SR) of juvenile T. noae. GRs of juvenile T. noae cultivated under 12,500 (518 ± 69%) and 20,000 lx (541 ± 40%) were significantly higher compared to those grown in 5,000 lx (271 ± 17%) (P < 0.05). Additionally, juvenile T. noae cultivated under white (662 ± 142%) or red light (554 ± 135%) exhibited lower growth rate than blue light (BL, 727 ± 146%). However, no significant change in SR was observed among experimental groups (P > 0.05). This study emphasised the significance of light intensity and wavelength in captive rearing of giant clams, contributing to the sustainable production of cultured organisms for research and conservation purposes.

description: We analyzed the longitudinal activity of nearly 7,000 editors at the mega-journal PLOS ONE over the 10-year period 2006-2015. Using the article-editor associations, we develop editor-specific measures of power, activity, article acceptance time, citation impact, and editorial renumeration (an analogue to self-citation). We observe remarkably high levels of power inequality among the PLOS ONE editors, with the top-10 editors responsible for 3,366 articles -- corresponding to 2.4% of the 141,986 articles we analyzed. Such high inequality levels suggest the presence of unintended incentives, which may reinforce unethical behavior in the form of decision-level biases at the editorial level. Our results indicate that editors may become apathetic in judging the quality of articles and susceptible to modes of power-driven misconduct. We used the longitudinal dimension of editor activity to develop two panel regression models which test and verify the presence of editor-level bias. In the first model we analyzed the citation impact of articles, and in the second model we modeled the decision time between an article being submitted and ultimately accepted by the editor. We focused on two variables that represent social factors that capture potential conflicts-of-interest: (i) we accounted for the social ties between editors and authors by developing a measure of repeat authorship among an editor's article set, and (ii) we accounted for the rate of citations directed towards the editor's own publications in the reference list of each article he/she oversaw. Our results indicate that these two factors play a significant role in the editorial decision process. Moreover, these two effects appear to increase with editor age, which is consistent with behavioral studies concerning the evolution of misbehavior and response to temptation in power-driven environments.
