Reservoir Computing as a Tool for Climate Predictability Studies

description: Reduced-order dynamical models play a central role in developing our understanding of predictability of climate irrespective of whether we are dealing with the actual climate system or surrogate climate-models. In this context, the Linear-Inverse-Modeling (LIM) approach, by capturing a few essential interactions between dynamical components of the full system, has proven valuable in providing insights into predictability of the full system. We demonstrate that Reservoir Computing (RC), a form of learning suitable for systems with chaotic dynamics, provides an alternative nonlinear approach that improves on the predictive skill of the LIM approach. We do this in the example setting of predicting sea-surface-temperature in the North Atlantic in the pre-industrial control simulation of a popular earth system model, the Community-Earth-System-Model so that we can compare the performance of the new RC based approach with the traditional LIM approach both when learning data is plentiful and when such data is more limited. The improved predictive skill of the RC approach over a wide range of conditions -- larger number of retained EOF coefficients, extending well into the limited data regime, etc. -- suggests that this machine-learning technique may have a use in climate predictability studies. While the possibility of developing a climate emulator -- the ability to continue the evolution of the system on the attractor long after failing to be able to track the reference trajectory -- is demonstrated in the Lorenz-63 system, it is suggested that further development of the RC approach may permit such uses of the new approach in more realistic predictability studies.

Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)

description: The Boussinesq equations for Rayleigh-Benard convection are simulated for a cylindrical container with an aspect ratio near 1.5. The transition from an axisymmetric stationary flow to time-dependent flows is studied using nonlinear simulations, linear stability analysis and bifurcation theory. At a Rayleigh number near 25,000, the axisymmetric flow becomes unstable to standing or travelling azimuthal waves. The standing waves are slightly unstable to travelling waves. This scenario is identified as a Hopf bifurcation in a system with O(2) symmetry.

Margin-adaptive model selection in statistical learning

description: A classical condition for fast learning rates is the margin condition, first introduced by Mammen and Tsybakov. We tackle in this paper the problem of adaptivity to this condition in the context of model selection, in a general learning framework. Actually, we consider a weaker version of this condition that allows one to take into account that learning within a small model can be much easier than within a large one. Requiring this "strong margin adaptivity" makes the model selection problem more challenging. We first prove, in a general framework, that some penalization procedures (including local Rademacher complexities) exhibit this adaptivity when the models are nested. Contrary to previous results, this holds with penalties that only depend on the data. Our second main result is that strong margin adaptivity is not always possible when the models are not nested: for every model selection procedure (even a randomized one), there is a problem for which it does not demonstrate strong margin adaptivity.

We discuss the dissipative Hofstadter model in the framework of the boundary state formulation in string theory and construct exact boundary states for the model at the magic points by using the fermion representation. The dissipative Hofstadter model at magic points is shown to be equivalent to the critical boundary sine-Gordon model.

description: We prove that mutation of cluster-tilting objects in triangulated 2-Calabi-Yau categories is closely connected with mutation of quivers with potentials. This gives a close connection between 2-CY-tilted algebras and Jacobian algebras associated with quivers with potentials. We show that cluster-tilted algebras are Jacobian and also that they are determined by their quivers. There are similar results when dealing with tilting modules over 3-CY algebras. The nearly Morita equivalence for 2-CY-tilted algebras is shown to hold for the finite length modules over Jacobian algebras.
description: 41 pages. In the previous version, there was a mistake in the proof of old Theorem 5.1 asserting compatibility of mutation of QPs and cluster-tilting mutation. In the present version, the proof is fixed by adding assumptions (see new Theorems 5.3 and 5.3), which are satisfied by large classes of examples, in particular those investigated in section 6

In the even case it leads to the even symplectic geometry (or, equivalently, to the geometry on supermanifolds endowed with a non-degenerate Poisson bracket) or to the geometry on an even Fedosov supermanifolds. It is proven that in the odd case there are two different scalar symplectic structures (namely, an odd closed differential 2-form and the antibracket) which can be used for construction of symplectic geometries on supermanifolds.

description: We use a combination of three large N-body simulations to investigate the dependence of dark matter halo concentrations on halo mass and redshift in the WMAP year 5 cosmology. The median relation between concentration and mass is adequately described by a power-law for halo masses in the range 10^11 - 10^15 Msol/h and redshifts z < 2, regardless of whether the halo density profiles are fit using NFW or Einasto profiles. Compared with recent analyses of the Millennium Simulation, which uses a value of sigma_8 that is higher than allowed by WMAP5, z = 0 halo concentrations are reduced by factors ranging from 23 per cent at 10^11 Msol/h to 16 per cent at 10^14 Msol/h. The predicted concentrations are much lower than inferred from X-ray observations of groups and clusters.

description: Anomaly detection in visual data refers to the problem of differentiating abnormal appearances from normal cases. Supervised approaches have been successfully applied to different domains, but require an abundance of labeled data. Due to the nature of how anomalies occur and their underlying generating processes, it is hard to characterize and label them. Recent advances in deep generative-based models have sparked interest in applying such methods for unsupervised anomaly detection and have shown promising results in medical and industrial inspection domains. In this work we evaluate a crucial part of the unsupervised visual anomaly detection pipeline, that is needed for normal appearance modeling, as well as the ability to reconstruct closest looking normal and tumor samples. We adapt and evaluate different high-resolution state-of-the-art generative models from the face synthesis domain and demonstrate their superiority over currently used approaches on a challenging domain of digital pathology. Multifold improvement in image synthesis is demonstrated in terms of the quality and resolution of the generated images, validated also against the supervised model.

description: We analyse in detail the rich emission line spectrum of Mark 110 to determine the physical conditions in the nucleus of this object, a peculiar NLS1 without any detectable Fe II emission associated with the broad line region and with a $\lambda5007/Hβ$ line ratio unusually large for a NLS1. We use 24 spectra obtained with the Marcario Low Resolution Spectrograph attached at the prime focus of the 9.2 m Hobby-Eberly telescope at the McDonald observatory. We fitted the spectrum by identifying all the emission lines (about 220) detected in the wavelength range 4200-6900 Å(at rest). The narrow emission lines are probably produced in a region with a density gradient in the range 10$^{3}-10^{6}$ cm$^{-3}$ with a rather high column density (5$\times10^{21}$ cm$^{-2}$). In addition to a narrow line system, three major broad line systems with different line velocity and width are required. We confirm the absence of broad Fe II emission lines. We speculate that Mark 110 is in fact a BLS1 with relatively "narrow" broad lines but with a BH mass large enough compared to its luminosity to have a lower than Eddington luminosity.

description: In Sri Lanka, when concentrating on previous researches on supermarket environment, the main focus has gone towards how far the customer service has affected on customer satisfaction or customer loyalty. However, other than the service quality there are so many areas to be looked at on the super market environment. There has been no such research conducted to study how physical evidences are made an impact on consumer behavior in super market environment. In Sri Lanka Therefore, there is a gap on identifying variables, which affect on consumer behavior other than the service quality in Sri Lankan supermarkets. Consumer mind is changing time to time but it is questionable whether that change is captured by retailers when designing their strategies. The overall study focused on whether there is an impact on the physical evidence used in supermarkets towards achieving customer store loyalty. This survey has covered the five major supermarkets in Sri Lanka. The sample is consisted of 100 customers those who are doing shopping at supermarket. To carry out the research there were four physical evidence elements selected such as layout, signage, lighting and signboards of supermarkets. Through the research findings there are several aspects of the customer store loyalty was revealed. One of those is present context customers are moving from general trade to modern just because of the opportunity that they getting to compare prices of the goods, quality and specifications of each product unlike in the general trade shopping. The next reason is most of the people love to have family shopping specially in supermarkets. Nowadays this has become a new trend in supermarkets.

Expert systems in case-based law : the rule against hearsay
Creators: name: Blackman, Susan Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The rule against hearsay of evidence law, and its exceptions, can be explained with a simple heuristic device. Where the circumstances surrounding the making of the hearsay statement indicate that the declarant perceived the matters reported accurately, believed and remembered what she saw when she reported it, and intended to accurately report it, the evidence appears reliable and is admissible in court. This theory is used as the basis for building an expert system to advise lawyers about admissibility of hearsay evidence. The expert whose knowledge forms the basis of this expert system is Professor M. T. MacCrimmon of the Faculty of Law at the University of British Columbia.

description: It is an important goal for many people to achieve happiness or well-being. Research has shown the effects of various stand-alone strategies to increase well-being. However, it is unclear whether multiple strategies can enhance happiness. Art-of-living is defined as a combination of the most important strategies that lead to well-being. Based on philosophical theory and empirical studies, 11 strategy components have been identified. A basic questionnaire, the Art-of-Living Inventory (AOLI), which aims to measure these strategies, was validated in a German-speaking sample (n = 1,302) and an English-speaking sample (n = 2,166). Results confirmed the hypothesized factor structure which comprised 11 dimensions and at least weak measurement invariance. Further analyses demonstrated good internal consistency, retest reliability and convergent, and discriminant validity with respect to different indicators of well-being and the validation measures. Multiple regressions indicated that a combination of multiple components was significantly better at predicting well-being than even the best single component. Moreover, when compared to personality, art-of-living was demonstrated to have additional and distinct effects on well-being. In sum, the AOLI has promising measurement characteristics and may be applied in research studies to better understand well-being and in intervention studies aimed at enhancing well-being.

description: The debate surrounding fast magnetic energy dissipation by magnetic reconnection has remained a fundamental topic in the plasma universe, not only in the Earth's magnetosphere but in astrophysical objects such as pulsar magnetospheres and magnetars, for more than half a century. Recently, nonthermal particle acceleration and plasma heating during reconnection have been extensively studied, and it has been argued that rapid energy dissipation can occur for a collisionless "thin" current sheet, the thickness of which is of the order of the particle gyro-radius. However, it is an intriguing enigma as to how the fast energy dissipation can occur for a "thick" current sheet with thickness larger than the particle gyro-radius. Here we demonstrate, using a high-resolution particle-in-cell simulation for a pair plasma, that an explosive reconnection can emerge with the enhancement of the inertia resistivity due to the magnetization of the meandering particles by the reconnecting magnetic field and the shrinkage of the current sheet. In addition, regardless of the initial thickness of the current sheet, the time scale of the nonlinear explosive reconnection is tens of the Alfvén transit time.

description: Penalty methods have proven to be particularly effective for achieving the required $C^1$-continuity in the context of multi-patch isogeometric Kirchhoff-Love shells. Due to their conceptual simplicity, these algorithms are readily applicable to the displacement and rotational coupling of trimmed, non-conforming surfaces. However, the accuracy of the resulting solution depends heavily on the choice of penalty parameters. Furthermore, the selection of these coefficients is generally problem-dependent and is based on a heuristic approach. Moreover, developing a penalty-like procedure that avoids interface locking while retaining optimal accuracy is still an open question. This work focuses on these challenges. In particular, we devise a penalty-like strategy based on the $L^2$-projection of displacement and rotational coupling terms onto a degree-reduced spline space defined on the corresponding interface. Additionally, the penalty factors are completely defined by the problem setup and are constructed to ensure optimality of the method. To demonstrate this, we asses the performance of the proposed numerical framework on a series of non-trimmed and trimmed multi-patch benchmarks discretized by non-conforming meshes. We systematically observe a significant gain of accuracy per degree-of-freedom and no interface locking phenomena compared to other penalty-like approaches. Lastly, we perform a static shell analysis of a complex engineering structure, namely the blade of a wind turbine.

description: A model of an emergent universe is obtained in brane world. Here the bulk energy is in the form of cosmological constant, while the brane consists of the Chaplygin gas with the modified equation of state such as $p=Aρ-B/ρ$. Initially the brane matter for the special choice $A=1/3$ may have negative or positive pressure depending on the relative magnitudes of the parameter $B$ and the cosmological constant of the bulk, while asymptotically in future the brane world approaches a $Λ$CDM model.

description: Including guest compounds inside the pores of nanoporous crystalline hosts (e.g. zeolite) is a key strategy to post-synthetically functionalise these nanoporous materials over past half a century. It yields highly active and stable heterogeneous catalysts as well as robust materials with tuneable photoluminescence properties due to geometric/quantum confinement. More recently, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which are hybrid hosts assembled with metal centres and organic ligands, start to be considered for creating host-guest composites. Apart from the aforementioned confinement effects, MOFs with diverse chemistries as hosts can give rise to a variety of host-guest interactions in these composite systems. It is, however, challenging to investigate these MOF-guest systems due to small MOF pore dimensions, MOF instability, poor guest loading control and limitations in guest characterisations. The thesis explores three different MOF-guest systems covering their preparation, characterisation as well as some unusual behaviour owing to MOF-guest interactions and/or confinement effects. The first system is incorporating electrically conducting poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) into a $Zn_2(1,4-ndc)_2(dabco)$ ($1,4-ndc = 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylate$, $dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane$) $[PEDOT@Zn_2(1,4-ndc)_2(dabco)]$, which turned the electrically insulating MOF into a semiconducting composite. The formation of nanostructured PEDOT by removing the MOF from the $PEDOT@Zn_2(1,4-ndc)_2(dabco)$ is also demonstrated. The success in MOF-PEDOT system preparation is the motivation to expand the synthesis to forming inorganic guests (the second system). Thermodynamically favourable solid/solution phases of inorganic compounds, which relate to electrochemical potential and pH, are considered to choose reaction agents and conditions to form desired guests. The application of the concept to the synthesis of $MOF-RuO_2$ catalysts ($RuO_2@MOF-808-P$), where the confined $RuO_2@MOF-808-P$ has exceptionally high activity for CO oxidation compared to unconfined $RuO_2$ with poor activity at low temperatures ($\le$150 °C) is demonstrated. In the final system, guest-induced metamorphosis by carbonising the MOF-guest composites made of HKUST-1-type MOFs and thiomolybdates is unveiled. With implications for the transformation mechanisms, MOF- and guest-dependent morphology of the carbonised products are shown. The carbonised product based upon HKUST-1(Cu) and thiomolybdate was also demonstrated as lithium-ion battery anode.

description: The theory of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves in solar coronal slabs in a zero-$β$ configuration and for parallel propagation of waves does not allow the existence of surface waves. When oblique propagation of perturbations is considered both surface and body waves are able to propagate. When the perpendicular wave number is larger than a certain value, the body kink mode becomes a surface wave. In addition, a sausage surface mode is found below the internal cut-off frequency. When non-uniformity in the equilibrium is included, surface and body modes are damped due to resonant absorption. In this paper, first, a normal-mode analysis is performed and the period, the damping rate, and the spatial structure of eigenfunctions are obtained. Then, the time-dependent problem is solved, and the conditions under which one or the other type of mode is excited are investigated.

description: Levitated oscillators with millimeter or sub-millimeter size are particularly attractive due to their potential role in studying various fundamental problems and practical applications. One of the crucial issues towards these goals is to achieve efficient measurements of oscillator motion, while this remains a challenge. Here we theoretically propose a lens-free optical detection scheme, which can be used to detect the motion of a millimeter or sub-millimeter levitated oscillator with a measurement efficiency close to the standard quantum limit with a modest optical power. We demonstrate experimentally this scheme on a 0.5 mm diameter micro-sphere that is diamagnetically levitated under high vacuum and room temperature, and the thermal motion is detected with high precision. Based on this system, an estimated acceleration sensitivity of $9.7 \times 10^{-10}\rm g/\sqrt{Hz}$ is achieved, which is more than one order improvement over the best value reported by the levitated mechanical system. Due to the stability of the system, the minimum resolved acceleration of $3.5\times 10^{-12}\rm g$ is reached with measurement times of $10^5$ s. This result is expected to have potential applications in the study of exotic interactions in the millimeter or sub-millimeter range and the realization of compact gravimeter and accelerometer.

A trust as an alternative to a will?
Creators: name: Hunter, Fiona
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this thesis is to study the feasibility of using a trust as an alternative to the will in the jurisdiction of British Columbia. The genesis of the study lies in the liberal interpretation and application of the Wills Variation Act by the courts in this province. Assuming that the free alienation of property upon death is a sound principle, it is incumbent upon the legal community to find methods of avoiding the interference of the judiciary in testamentary matters. To properly assess the trust as an alternative to the will, a brief overview of both is provided. The historical context of the trust is examined, followed by a review of its use in the United States as a wills substitute. The particular trust popular in the United States is one containing a power to revoke by the settlor, a life interest with power to encroach upon capital in favor of the settlor, and powers of modification and control retained by the settlor. It is hereinafter referred to as the revocable trust. Whether the revocable trust would be acceptable to the commonlaw of British Columbia is examined, and the conclusion reached is that there is nothing in theory to prevent its use as an alternative to the will. However, careful drafting must be used at all times to prevent attacks upon the validity of the trust itself. Certain practical considerations in using the revocable trust as an alternative to the will are reviewed, including income tax laws, provincial tax laws, and possible claims by beneficiaries. The more philosophical issue of whether the use of a trust should be permitted to avoid claims by surviving spouses and children is also examined. Conflicting doctrines in the United States are reviewed in light of existing caselaw in British Columbia. The tentative conclusion is that our own courts will permit a settlor to avoid succession claims by employing the trust. Again, however, careful drafting is crucial, and the facts in each case must be reviewed. The study establishes that the revocable trust can be used as an alternative to the will in British Columbia. The popularity of such use may, however, be limited by Canada's income tax laws as well as provincial tax laws. The resistance of the legal community to new ideas may also reduce the possible use of the revocable trust as an alternative to the will.

description: In this work, we investigate the influence of planetary tidal interactions on the transit-timing variations of short-period low-mass rocky exoplanets. For such purpose, we employ the recently-developed creep tide theory to compute tidally-induced TTVs. We implement the creep tide in the recently-developed Posidonius N-body code, thus allowing for a high-precision evolution of the coupled spin-orbit dynamics of planetary systems. As a working example for the analyses of tidally-induced TTVs, we apply our version of the code to the K2-265 b planet. We analyse the dependence of tidally-induced TTVs with the planetary rotation rate, uniform viscosity coefficient and eccentricity. Our results show that the tidally-induced TTVs are more significant in the case where the planet is trapped in non-synchronous spin-orbit resonances, in particular the 3/2 and 2/1 spin-orbit resonant states. An analysis of the TTVs induced separately by apsidal precession and tidally-induced orbital decay has allowed for the conclusion that the latter effect is much more efficient at causing high-amplitude TTVs than the former effect by 2 - 3 orders of magnitude. We compare our findings for the tidally-induced TTVs obtained with Posidonius with analytical formulations for the transit timings used in previous works, and verified that the results for the TTVs coming from Posidonius are in excellent agreement with the analytical formulations. These results show that the new version of Posidonius containing the creep tide theory implementation can be used to study more complex cases in the future. For instance, the code can be used to study multiplanetary systems, in which case planet-planet gravitational perturbations must be taken into account additionally to tidal interactions to obtain the TTVs.
