description: Although there exist manifold strategies for cancer treatment, researchers are obliged to develop novel treatments based on the challenges that arise. One of these recent treatment approaches is cancer immunotherapy, which enjoys various types of strategies itself. However, one of the most significant methods, in this regard, is employing immune checkpoint proteins (ICPs). Bone sarcomas have several subtypes, with the most common ones being chordoma, chondrosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and osteosarcoma. Although many aggressive treatment approaches, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgical resection, have been employed over the last decades, significantly improved outcomes have not been observed for Ewing sarcoma or osteosarcoma patients. Additionally, chordoma and chdrosarcoma resist against both radiation and chemotherapy. Accordingly, elucidating how recent therapies could affect bone sarcomas is necessary. Checkpoint inhibitors have attracted great attention for the treatment of several cancer types, including bone sarcoma. Herein, the recent advances of current immune checkpoint targets, such as anti-PD-1/PD-L1 and anti-CTLA-4 blockade, for the treatment of bone sarcoma have been reviewed.

description: It is important for central banks to understand how firms set prices. The pricesetting behaviour plays a key role in the monetary policy transmission mechanism. To be able to understand and predict how monetary policy impacts on macro variables such as output, employment and inflation, it is useful to have information on what lies behind the choices made by each individual economic subject. Which factors determine firms’ price-setting is a particularly important question. This paper outlines the major themes and results on price-setting behaviour that have emerged from international research on the basis of surveys conducted by central banks of many developed countries.

description: We theoretically evaluated the performance of our proposed associative watermarking method in which the watermark is not embedded directly into the image. We previously proposed a watermarking method that extends the zero-watermarking model by applying associative memory models. In this model, the hetero-associative memory model is introduced to the mapping process between image features and watermarks, and the auto-associative memory model is applied to correct watermark errors. We herein show that the associative watermarking model outperforms the zero-watermarking model through computer simulations using actual images. In this paper, we describe how we derive the macroscopic state equation for the associative watermarking model using the Okada theory. The theoretical results obtained by the fourth-order theory were in good agreement with those obtained by computer simulations. Furthermore, the performance of the associative watermarking model was evaluated using the bit error rate of the watermark, both theoretically and using computer simulations.

description: This account of research in times of Covid-19, carried out by a team at the Center of Methods in Social Sciences, University of Goettingen, under the supervision of Gabriele Rosenthal, is an updated version of a report published in July 2020. Since then, within the framework of ongoing empirical research in the geographical regions of West Africa, Western Europe, the Middle East and South America, members of the team and their field assistants have conducted many more online interviews (n= 102). We have now updated our description of the individuals presented, with whom we have maintained contact, and look at the ways in which their situation has changed since summer 2020. This report also includes reflections by Victoria Taboada Gómez on the research she carried out for her dissertation on the situation of indigenous peo- ple in Paraguay. The contributors to this report have all used a biographical and figu- rational approach. This means, in the tradition of Norbert Elias, making an attempt to reconstruct the collective and historical backgrounds of the interviewees, their membership of various we-groups, and the changing collective belongings and power chances in the figurations of different we-groups and groupings. A contrastive com- parison of the case studies shows that two components have played an important role in determining how the interviewees have experienced the pandemic, how they have dealt with changes in their situation, and especially to what extent their power of agency has been affected by the pandemic. Even before the pandemic, these components were significant in the lives of migrants and the indigenous population in Paraguay: on the one hand, their degree of integration in social networks or we- groups, and, on the other hand, their legal status in the country in which they are living. The analyses reveal not only that legal status is an extremely significant component but also that its effects depend on the extent to which the individual is integrated in a we-group or network.

Literature Review

description: Since the early 1990s, our understanding of how innovations develop has changed a lot. We observe a clear shift in the modeling of innovation systems in the literature. Traditionally, knowledge inputs were somehow directly linked to outputs. However, this linear (and location-based) view soon proved to be insufficient as it neglected the importance of the underlying microstructure of regions and the complexity of regional knowledge creation processes. Modeling regional innovation systems is a very challenging task, as various influencing factors have to be taken into account. In this respect, empirically based agent-based models have proven to be a promising approach. With advances in computing power and the availability of individualized data, agent-based models can model real-world scenarios and provide deeper insights into regional innovation systems. This article provides a historical background to the systems perspective of regional innovation and a comprehensive summary of the latest work on agent-based modeling as applied innovation systems, with a specific focus to the regional level. The aim is to explore the various methodologies, frameworks, and case studies and enhance our understanding of regional innovation dynamics and agent-based modeling. Despite their potential, much of the work is still purely theoretical, lacking an empirical basis and therefore unable to address real-world problems. The main challenges for current and future research are therefore the development of a consistent validation strategy that allows the replication of the models. We also argue that there are still only a limited number of studies that analyze regional innovation systems and include elements of participatory foresight in their agent-based models, although it has the potential to advance the scientific debate in the field of innovation geography.

description: The nonlinear interaction of intense linearly polarized electromagnetic waves (EMWs) with longitudinal electron density perturbations is revisited in relativistic degenerate plasmas. The nonlinear dynamics of the EMWs and the longitudinal field, driven by the EMW ponderomotive force, is governed by a coupled set of nonlinear partial differential equations. A numerical simulation of these coupled equations reveals that the generation of wakefields is possible in weakly relativistic degenerate plasmas with $R_0\equiv p_F/mc\ll1$ and $v_g/c\sim1$, where $p_F$ is the Fermi momentum, $m$ is the mass of electrons, $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum, and $v_g$ is the EMW group velocity. However, when the ratio $v_g/c$ is reduced to $\sim0.1$, the wakefield generation is suppressed, instead the longitudinal fields get localized to form soliton-like structures. On the other hand, in the regimes of moderate $(R_0\lesssim1)$ or strong relativistic degeneracy $(R_0>1)$ with $v_g/c\sim0.1$, only the EM solitons can be formed.

description: For physical systems described by smooth, finite-range and confining microscopic interaction potentials V with continuously varying coordinates, we announce and outline the proof of a theorem that establishes that unless the equipotential hypersurfaces of configuration space Σ_v ={(q_1,...,q_N)\in R^N | V(q_1,...,q_N) = v}, v \in R, change topology at some v_c in a given interval [v_0, v_1] of values v of V, the Helmoltz free energy must be at least twice differentiable in the corresponding interval of inverse temperature (β(v_0), β(v_1)) also in the N -> \infty$ limit. Thus the occurrence of a phase transition at some β_c =β(v_c) is necessarily the consequence of the loss of diffeomorphicity among the {Σ_v}_{v < v_c}$ and the {Σ_v}_{v > v_c}, which is the consequence of the existence of critical points of V on Σ_{v=v_c}, that is points where \nabla V=0.

description: With TIB Open Publishing, the Technische Informationsbibliothek (TIB) – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology – is about to launch a new open-access service on which scientific journals and conference publications can be published. In doing so, it is underlining its orientation towards open science and adding a significant new pillar to its activities to support the transition to open access. As a research partner, TIB is committed to professional, optimally accessible, and widely visible publications. The service is aimed at editors of scientific journals and conference publications who want a library-supported, non-commercial, but at the same time sophisticated, sustainable, and completely open access publication option. Our service is aimed at existing conference publications and journals as well as at new launches and it is open to all scientific disciplines. The scientists who act as editors and reviewers of the individual publications are responsible for the quality assurance of the content of the published articles. On the part of TIB Open Publishing, however, we ensure that formal quality standards are met by the hosted publications. There must be compatibility with the funding criteria („Plan S“) of the research funding agencies that are members of the cOAlition S. Our quality standards are therefore based on the technical implementation guidelines of Plan S, but also on the DOAJ Seal, the OASPA membership criteria, and the COPE guidelines. Our technical services encompass the hosting of journals and conference publications and the distribution of metadata and content to indexing, archiving, and registration systems. We offer a continuously enhanced XML-based publication workflow and engage especially with the OJS developer community in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. We also develop OJS plugins for community use.

description: In September 2006 National Bank of Serbia adopted new framework of monetary policy, i.e. Inflation targeting strategy. Accepting the experiences of the countries which have been implementing this strategy and the most successful practice, but also references of IMF, NBS in coordination with the Government of Serbia, due to preserving price stability, defined basic framework of inflation corridor, using the referent interest rates, as the key instrument for sustainable and transparent model of inflation targeting. Beside this key instrument, NBS defined using the other measures and instruments of monetary policy, as additional instruments with the main goal of suppressing inflation trends and unpredictable circumstances which could influence inflation. The goal of implementing this strategy refers to establishing the base inflation i.e. growth of retail prices which are under control of NBS instruments. Within a framework of this paperwork, and on the bases of implemented strategy, Inflation targeting of NBS and defined framework of monetary policy which are included in annual NBS Memorandums, the efficiency of realization of goals of monetary policy has been analyzed.NBS has accomplished successfully these goals, despite high inflatory pressure which has been passed on in the first quarter of 2008.

description: Hidden costs are an important feature of credit transactions in rural financial markets of lesser developed countries. There is frequently a trade-off between explicit interest charges and implicit borrowing costs such that smaller borrowers experience relatively greater borrowing costs than larger borrowers in a low, subsidized interest rate setting. - Implicit interest and explicit interest are found to be perfect substitutes, and lending institutions exercise loan rate differentiation through implicit charges to borrowers. Changes in the explicit interest rate have a differential impact by loan size.

description: BiFeO$_3$ is a technologically relevant multiferroic perovskite featuring ferroelectricity and antiferromagnetism. Its lattice, magnetic, and ferroelectric degrees of freedoms are coupled to its optically active excitations and thus hold the potential to be reversible probed and controlled by light. In this work, we combine ab initio density functional and many-body perturbation theory methods with an extensive symmetry and atomic-orbital analysis to describe and understand the electronic excited states spectrum and its imprint on the optical absorption spectrum with quantitative accuracy and qualitative insights. We find that the optical absorption spectrum of BiFeO$_3$ contain several strongly bound and spatially localized electronic transitions in which the spin-degree of freedom is almost fully flipped. With our analysis we thoroughly characterize these localized spin-flip transitions in terms of the unusual crystal field splitting of Fe-$3d$ single-electron orbitals. Our symmetry analysis further allows us to thoroughly explain how the spin content and the energetic fine structure of these strongly bound excitons are dictated by the interplay between crystal symmetry, electron-hole attraction, and the spin-orbit coupling.

description: There has been tremendous research on the design of image regularizers over the years, from simple Tikhonov and Laplacian to sophisticated sparsity and CNN-based regularizers. Coupled with a model-based loss function, these are typically used for image reconstruction within an optimization framework. The technical challenge is to develop a regularizer that can accurately model realistic images and be optimized efficiently along with the loss function. Motivated by the recent plug-and-play paradigm for image regularization, we construct a quadratic regularizer whose reconstruction capability is competitive with state-of-the-art regularizers. The novelty of the regularizer is that, unlike classical regularizers, the quadratic objective function is derived from the observed data. Since the regularizer is quadratic, we can reduce the optimization to solving a linear system for applications such as superresolution, deblurring, inpainting, etc. In particular, we show that using iterative Krylov solvers, we can converge to the solution in a few iterations, where each iteration requires an application of the forward operator and a linear denoiser. The surprising finding is that we can get close to deep learning methods in terms of reconstruction quality. To the best of our knowledge, the possibility of achieving near state-of-the-art performance using a linear solver is novel.

description: We experimentally study resonant light scattering by a one-dimensional randomly filled chain of cold two-level atoms. By a local measurement of the light scattered along the chain, we observe constructive interferences in light-induced dipole-dipole interactions between the atoms. They lead to a shift of the collective resonance despite the average interatomic distance being larger than the wavelength of the light. This result demonstrates that strong collective effects can be enhanced by structuring the geometrical arrangement of the ensemble. We also explore the high intensity regime where atoms cannot be described classically. We compare our measurement to a mean-field, nonlinear coupled-dipole model accounting for the saturation of the response of a single atom.

description: Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has received significant attention for future wireless networks. NOMA outperforms orthogonal schemes, such as OFDMA, in terms of spectral efficiency and massive connectivity. The joint subcarrier and power allocation problem in NOMA is NP-hard to solve in general, due to complex impacts of signal superposition on each user's achievable data rates, as well as combinatorial constraints on the number of multiplexed users per sub-carrier to mitigate error propagation. In this family of problems, weighted sum-rate (WSR) is an important objective function as it can achieve different tradeoffs between sum-rate performance and user fairness. We propose a novel approach to solve the WSR maximization problem in multi-carrier NOMA with cellular power constraint. The problem is divided into two polynomial time solvable sub-problems. First, the multi-carrier power control (given a fixed subcarrier allocation) is non-convex. By taking advantage of its separability property, we design an optimal and low complexity algorithm (MCPC) based on projected gradient descent. Secondly, the single-carrier user selection is a non-convex mixed-integer problem that we solve using dynamic programming (SCUS). This work also aims to give an understanding on how each sub-problem's particular structure can facilitate the algorithm design. In that respect, the above MCPC and SCUS are basic building blocks that can be applied in a wide range of resource allocation problems. Furthermore, we propose an efficient heuristic to solve the general WSR maximization problem by combining MCPC and SCUS. Numerical results show that it achieves near-optimal sum-rate with user fairness, as well as significant performance improvement over OMA.

description: We have created a flat piling of disks in a numerical experiment using the Distinct Element Method (DEM) by depositing them under gravity. In the resulting pile, we then measured increments in stress and strain that were associated with a small decrease in gravity. We first describe the stress in terms of the strain using isotropic elasticity theory. Then, from a micro-mechanical view point, we calculate the relation between the stress and strain using the mean strain assumption. We compare the predicted values of Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio with those that were measured in the numerical experiment.

description: We propose a model for the transmission of perturbations across the amino acids of a protein represented as an interaction network. The dynamics consists of a Susceptible-Infected (SI) model based on the Caputo fractional-order derivative. We find an upper bound to the analytical solution of this model which represents the worse-case scenario on the propagation of perturbations across a protein residue network. This upper bound is expressed in terms of Mittag-Leffler functions of the adjacency matrix of the network of inter-amino acids interactions. We then apply this model to the analysis of the propagation of perturbations produced by inhibitors of the main protease of SARS CoV-2. We find that the perturbations produced by strong inhibitors of the protease are propagated far away from the binding site, confirming the long-range nature of intra-protein communication. On the contrary, the weakest inhibitors only transmit their perturbations across a close environment around the binding site. These findings may help to the design of drug candidates against this new coronavirus.

description: We compute the Casimir interaction energy between two perfectly conducting, concentric cylinders, using the mode-by-mode summation technique. Then we compare it with the approximate results obtained using the proximity theorem and a semiclassical approximation based on classical periodic orbits. We show that the proximity theorem with a particular choice for the effective area coincides with the semiclassical approximation and reproduces the exact result far beyond its expected range of validity. We also compute the force between slightly eccentric cylinders and discuss the advantages of using a cylindrical geometry to measure the Casimir force.

description: Analytical models of galaxy-halo connection such as the Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) model have been widely used over the past decades as a means to intensively test perturbative models on quasi-linear scales. However, these models fail to reproduce the galaxy-galaxy lensing signal on non-linear scales, over-predicting the observed signal up to 40%. With ongoing Stage-IV galaxy surveys such as DESI and EUCLID, it is now crucial to accurately model the galaxy-halo connection up to intra-halo scales to accurately estimate theoretical uncertainties of perturbative models. This paper compares the standard HOD model to an extended HOD framework that incorporates as additional features galaxy assembly bias and local environmental dependencies on halo occupation. These models have been calibrated against the observed clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing signal of eBOSS Luminous Red Galaxies (LRG) and Emission Lines Galaxies (ELG) in the range 0.6 < z < 1.1. A combined clustering-lensing cosmological analysis is then performed on the simulated galaxy samples of both standard and extended HOD frameworks to quantify the systematic budget of perturbative models. The extended HOD model offers a more comprehensive understanding of the connection between galaxies and their surroundings. In particular, we found that the LRGs preferentially occupy denser and more anisotropic environments. Our results highlight the importance of considering environmental factors in galaxy formation models, with an extended HOD framework that reproduces the observed signal within 20% on scales below 10 Mpc/h. Our cosmological analysis reveals that our perturbative model yields similar constraints regardless of the galaxy population, with a better goodness of fit for the extended HOD. These results suggest that the extended HOD framework should be used to quantify modeling systematics.

description: The stock market prediction has always been crucial for stakeholders, traders and investors. We developed an ensemble Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) model that includes two-time frequencies (annual and daily parameters) in order to predict the next-day Closing price (one step ahead). Based on a four-step approach, this methodology is a serial combination of two LSTM algorithms. The empirical experiment is applied to 417 NY stock exchange companies. Based on Open High Low Close metrics and other financial ratios, this approach proves that the stock market prediction can be improved.

description: We recently reported on a method to determine the easy axis position in a 10 nm thick film of the fully compensated antiferromagnet CuMnAs. The film had a uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and the technique utilized a magneto-optical pump and probe experiment [Nature Photonics 11, 91 (2017)]. In this contribution we discuss the applicability of this method for the investigation of a broader set of epitaxial CuMnAs films having different thicknesses. This work reveals that the equilibrium magnetic anisotropy can be studied only in samples where this anisotropy is rather strong. However, in the majority of CuMnAs films, the impact of a strong pump pulse induces nano-fragmentation of the magnetic domains and, therefore, the magnetic anisotropy measured by the pump-probe technique differs substantially from that in the equilibrium conditions. We also demonstrate that optical pump-probe experiment can be used very efficiently to study the local heating and heat dissipation in CuMnAs epitaxial layers. In particular, we determined the electron-phonon relaxation time in CuMnAs. We also observed that for a local film heating by a focused laser the thinner films are heated more, but the heat is dissipated considerably faster than in the case of thicker films. This illustrates that the optical pump-probe experiment is a valuable characterization tool for the heat management optimization in the CuMnAs memory devices and can be applied in a similar way to those used during heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology development for the latest generation of hard drive disks.

description: 1991T-like supernovae are the luminous, slow-declining extreme of the Branch shallow-silicon (SS) subclass of Type Ia supernovae. They are distinguished by extremely weak Ca II H & K and Si II $\lambda6355$ and strong Fe III absorption features in their optical spectra at pre-maximum phases, and have long been suspected to be over-luminous compared to normal Type Ia supernovae. In this paper, the pseudo equivalent width of the Si II $λ$6355 absorption obtained at light curve phases from $\leq+10$ days is combined with the morphology of the $i$-band light curve to identify a sample of 1991T-like supernovae in the Carnegie Supernova Project-II. Hubble diagram residuals show that, at optical as well as near-infrared wavelengths, these events are over-luminous by $\sim$0.1-0.5 mag with respect to the less extreme Branch SS (1999aa-like) and Branch core-normal supernovae with similar $B$-band light curve decline rates.

description: In this study, the effect of irrigation on agricultural input use in Texas is considered. Given theoretical and empirical considerations, Nan input expenditure function is specified which is easily estimable given periodically available agricultural county census data. The model also provides a framework for testing the general hypothesis that irrigation significantly alters the value marginal product (VMP) function for certain agricultural inputs.
