description: This research project addresses one of the most challenging, complex, and controversial issues in the management of the California Bay-Delta: how to balance nationally significant agricultural and fisheries interests, statewide water supply reliability interests, federally and state-protected ecological interests, and local recreational, cultural-historical, and subsistence interests in the management of salinity, an increasing challenge in the face of extended drought and sea-level rise. Through a participatory scenario-based approach, we use state-of-the-art computing, coupled with locally sourced knowledge, to build holistic understanding of the multifaceted tradeoffs associated with alternative nature-based, regulatory, demand-based, and engineering scenarios for salinity management while building social capital and information-sharing networks through extended public engagement and open-science technologies. Throughout, we test how the components of this approach (e.g., stakeholder workshops, technological resources) change stakeholders’ perceptions of the issues and the acceptability of potential management strategies, their trust in science, policy, and other stakeholders, and their understanding of complex scientific issues. Research outcomes include: 1) quantitative understanding of how nature-based, policy-based, and engineering strategies may function independently or in combination to mitigate future salinity challenges–with applications to other estuaries such as the Chesapeake Bay, where salinity intrusion is a growing concern; 2) new understanding of how a topically-focused, participatory, scenario-based approach may promote a “just transition” in science-informed governance for resilience of large socio-ecological systems with deep histories of conflict; and 3) open cyberinfrastructure tools and enhanced social capital that lay a foundation for addressing other “wicked problems” (e.g., harmful algal blooms, species recovery) in the Bay-Delta. Training–for undergraduate and graduate students and public agency scientists–is integrated into the research program through new curricula, a Summer Institute, formal mentorship, and capstone/incubator projects. Trainees will develop games, tools, and visualizations that will enhance stakeholder engagement and will work directly with data generated from the project.

description: This is a short essay on dialogue, culture and identities. In addition to the public good policy adopted by the Catalan Government over the last four decades, it examines the Catalan language from a commons-based perspective. It contends that its survival and evolution in a digital age will mainly depend on the social institutions that can be created to manage it as a commons good. To foster cultural innovation and plurality, against diglossic stances, blockchain technologies could be used by Catalan speakers to create a social community to freely manage their own language.

description: Biomining with in silico bioinformatics could provide tools in search for highly suitable structure and phenotypic features with functions for  enzyme biocatalyst development.  The zinc enzymes provide the largest share of prokaryotic zinc proteins and have superior chemical properties with zinc catalytic cofactor for, combine Lewis acid strength, lack of redox reactivity, and fast ligand exchange.  Being a diverse catalyst, zinc enzymes are distributed in all six major classes of enzymes (oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, lyases, isomerases, and ligases).  A zinc-mediated protein interface (called MID1-zinc) has recently been computationally designed, which could provide fast catalytic steps with a rate acceleration of 104 to  105; and may serve a template for potent enzyme active sites.  The DBTO2 monooxygenase (dszA) catalyze the second step in the multi-step enzyme 4S pathway for aerobic biodesulfurization of organic sulfur, such as Dibenzothiophene (DBT).  The translated primary structure of dszA gene was subjected to in silico analyses using bioinformatic tools for ligand-ligand binding, protein motif scan with ScanProsite, and BLAST (NCBI) analyses. Protein clusters were searched to identify putative metal binding motifs.  About 5 different Protein Data Bank (PDB) structures were obtained with zinc, 6 different PDB structures for magnesium, and 2 PDB structures for calcium.  Several structural protein motifs were found to be uniquely associated with the dszA gene. These motifs features specific properties of the triple helix structure, thermostability, and hydrophibicity.  The unique sequences could provide information for the design of highly active enzymes for  industrial applications.

The 1993 World Conference on Human Rights and the retreat of a redistributive rights vision

description: Abstract The 1993 UN World Conference on Human Rights, the second held in the history of the UN, and the sequel to the 1968 conference in Tehran, was convened as the faith in the liberal democratic human rights order was renascent. Economic and social rights, one of the dominant notes of Tehran a quarter century earlier, were—in comparative terms—marginal to Western priorities. This paper draws on new archival research to assess the new equilibrium in post-Cold War human rights that emerged from Vienna. The interrelationship between political, civil, and legal freedoms, and economic and social provisions was pared down to mere exhortation. After the transnational ‘Breakthrough’ of human rights NGOs in the 1970s, almost everyone had begun to transliterate their cause to the language of human rights—but it had become a language which required the excision of economic radicalism as a prerequisite for drawing on its newly inflated moral currency.

description: The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of a focused versus mixed-methods strength-power training plan on athletes undertaking high volumes of concurrent training. Fourteen junior elite male Australian football players were randomly assigned into either the focused or mixed group. Both training groups undertook a sequenced training intervention consisting of a four-week mesocycle emphasising heavy strength followed by a four-week mesocycle of high velocity emphasis. Training differed between groups by way of the degree of emphasis placed on the targeted attribute in each cycle and occurred during the preseason. Testing occurred pre- and post-training and consisted of the unloaded and loaded (+20 kg) countermovement jump (CMJ). Focused training elicited practical (non-trivial) improvements in flight time to contraction ratio (FT:CT) (g = 0.45, ±90% confidence interval 0.49) underpinned by a small reduction in contraction time (g = −0.46, ±0.45) and a small increase in braking (g = 0.36, ±0.42) and concentric phase mean force (g = 0.22, ±0.39). Conversely, the mixed group demonstrated an unchanged FT:CT (g = −0.13, ±0.56). Similar respective changes occurred in the loaded condition. Preferential improvements in FT:CT occur when a greater focus is placed on a targeted physical quality in a sequenced training plan of junior elite Australian football players during preseason training.

description: Scholars in higher education have long theorised the relational and political dimensions of social spaces, including their potential impact on students’ wellbeing, sense of belongingness and identity, but this is a largely unexplored topic in health professions literature. To address this gap, we explored how student common rooms in a medical school were allocated and managed, and how these processes shaped student experiences. Our specific research question was: how does the design and management of student social space influence students’ experience of this space? We adopted a constructivist perspective and drew upon Lefebvre’s idea of space as a sensitising lens to guide our analysis. We conducted an institutional ethnography (IE) informed qualitative study using documents and semi-structured interviews for data collection to understand what influenced students’ experiences of social spaces (‘House rooms’). We purposively sampled 22 participants: 13 students, seven personal tutors, and two administrators to gather diverse perspectives. We also analysed institutional guides and handbooks, and historical meeting minutes. The medical school conceptualised these rooms as dedicated student spaces to foster students’ sense of belongingness and identity. Room planning was ‘top down’ with minimal student involvement. While the school positioned these rooms as public, students gradually reimagined them as private, social, and safe spaces. The students, the users, claimed the rooms as their own through agency and subtle acts of resistance. Our study illuminates that social space involves not just those people who use it, but also those who manage it. In our example, tacit understanding seemed to be struck between the institution and students, where the latter mostly accepted institutional monitoring and surveillance in exchange for a space within the campus that they could call their own. How social spaces are managed and used are reflections of the relationship between providers and users.

description: The demand of probabilistic time series forecasting has been recently raised in various dynamic system scenarios, for example, system identification and prognostic and health management of machines. To this end, we combine the advances in both deep generative models and state space model (SSM) to come up with a novel, data-driven deep probabilistic sequence model. Specifically, we follow the popular encoder-decoder generative structure to build the recurrent neural networks (RNN) assisted variational sequence model on an augmented recurrent input space, which could induce rich stochastic sequence dependency. Besides, in order to alleviate the inconsistency issue of the posterior between training and predicting as well as improving the mining of dynamic patterns, we (i) propose using a lagged hybrid output as input for the posterior at next time step, which brings training and predicting into alignment; and (ii) further devise a generalized auto-regressive strategy that encodes all the historical dependencies for the posterior. Thereafter, we first investigate the methodological characteristics of the proposed deep probabilistic sequence model on toy cases, and then comprehensively demonstrate the superiority of our model against existing deep probabilistic SSM models through extensive numerical experiments on eight system identification benchmarks from various dynamic systems. Finally, we apply our sequence model to a real-world centrifugal compressor forecasting problem, and again verify its outstanding performance by quantifying the time series predictive distribution.

description: Many animals and robots move using undulatory motion of their bodies. When in close proximity undulatory motion can lead to novel collective behaviors such as gait synchronization, spatial reconfiguration, and clustering. Here we study the role of contact interactions between model undulatory swimmers: three-link robots in experiment and multi-link robots in simulation. The undulatory gait of each swimmer is generated through a time-dependent sinusoidal-like waveform which has a fixed phase offset, $ϕ$. By varying the phase relationship between neighboring swimmers we seek to study how contact forces and spatial configurations are governed by the phase difference between neighboring swimmers. We find that undulatory actuation in close proximity drives neighboring swimmers into spatial equilibrium configurations that depend on the actuation phase difference. We propose a model for spatial equilibrium of nearest neighbor undulatory swimmers which we call the gait compatibility condition, which is the set of spatial and gait configurations in which no collisions occur. Robotic experiments with two, three, and four swimmers exhibit good agreement with the compatibility model. To probe the interaction potential between undulatory swimmers we perturb the each longitudinally from their equilibrium configurations and we measure their steady-state displacement. These studies reveal that undulatory swimmers in close proximity exhibit cohesive longitudinal interaction forces that drive the swimmers from incompatible to compatible configurations. This system of undulatory swimmers provides new insight into active-matter systems which move through body undulation. In addition to the importance of velocity and orientation coherence in active-matter swarms, we demonstrate that undulatory phase coherence is also important for generating stable, cohesive group configurations.

description: Motivated by the recent observation of anomalous electron-positron angular correlations in the decay of the 18.15 MeV 1+ excited states in 8Be, we reexamine in detail the Standard Model expectations for these angular correlations. The 18.15 MeV state is above particle threshold, and several multipoles can contribute to its $e^+e^-$ decay. We present the general theoretical expressions for $e^+e^-$ angular distributions for nuclear decay by C0, C1, C2 M1, E1, and E2 multipoles, and we examine their relative contribution to the $e^+e^-$ decay of 8Be at 18.15 MeV. We find that this resonance is dominated by M1 and E1 decay, and that the ratio of M1 to E1 strength is a strong function of energy. This is in contract to the original analysis of the $e^+e^-$ angular distributions, where the M1/E1 ratio was assumed to be a constant over the energy region Ep = 0:8-1:2 MeV. We find that the existence of a `bump' in the measured angular distribution is strongly dependent on the assumed M1/E1 ratio, with the present analysis finding the measured large-angle contributions to the $e^+e^-$ angular distribution to be lower than expectation. Thus, in the current analysis we find no evidence for axion decay in the 18.15 MeV resonance region of 8Be.

description: We use the recent frame-indifferent theory of diffusive momentum transport to identify internal barriers in wall-bounded turbulence. Formed by the invariant manifolds of the Laplacian of the velocity field, the barriers block the viscous part of the instantaneous momentum flux in the flow. We employ the level sets of single-trajectory Lagrangian diagnostic tools, the trajectory rotation average and trajectory stretching exponent, to approximate both vortical and internal wall-parallel momentum transport barrier (MTB) interfaces. These interfaces provide frame-indifferent alternatives to classic velocity-gradient-based vortices and high-shear boundaries between uniform momentum zones (UMZs). Indeed, we find that these elliptic manifold approximations and MTBs outperform standard vortices and UMZ interfaces in blocking diffusive momentum transport, suggesting our momentum barriers are physical features that may be the cause of coherence signatures in statistical and non-objective diagnostics. We also introduce normalized trajectory metrics that provide unprecedented visualizations of objective coherent structures by avoiding strong turbulence biases.

description: Identification methods for dynamic networks typically require prior knowledge of the network and disturbance topology, and often rely on solving poorly scalable non-convex optimization problems. While methods for estimating network topology are available in the literature, less attention has been paid to estimating the disturbance topology, i.e., the (spatial) noise correlation structure and the noise rank in a filtered white noise representation of the disturbance signal. In this work we present an identification method for dynamic networks, in which an estimation of the disturbance topology precedes the identification of the full dynamic network with known network topology. To this end we extend the multi-step Sequential Linear Regression and Weighted Null Space Fitting methods to deal with reduced rank noise, and use these methods to estimate the disturbance topology and the network dynamics in the full measurement situation. As a result, we provide a multi-step least squares algorithm with parallel computation capabilities and that rely only on explicit analytical solutions, thereby avoiding the usual non-convex optimizations involved. Consequently we consistently estimate dynamic networks of Box Jenkins model structure, while keeping the computational burden low. We provide a consistency proof that includes path-based data informativity conditions for allocation of excitation signals in the experimental design. Numerical simulations performed on a dynamic network with reduced rank noise clearly illustrate the potential of this method.

Be your own boss? Long-term labor trends and the rise of Uber
Creators: name: Minchin, Timothy

description: This article explores the long-term trends behind the rise of Uber, one of the most valuable corporations in the contemporary US In 2018 a study by the Economic Policy Institute found that there were 833,000 Uber drivers in the US, the vast majority of them poorly paid part-timers. Concen­trating on the company’s use of technology, most of the literature on Uber focuses on the present and future. Using new technology to monitor and control drivers, the ride-sharing app has been pictured as representing the “future of work” and being “decidedly unlike other workplaces.” This article demonstrates that there were in fact many long-term precedents for Uber’s labor practices, as American workers had suffered from falling wages, a steady loss of benefits, and unprecedented levels of income inequality for de­cades before the app arrived in 2009. Part-time work—and the classification of workers as independent contractors to evade the protections of the 1935 National Labor Relations Act—had also been on the rise for decades. It was FedEx that pioneered Uber’s recruiting slogan, “Be Your Own Boss,” years earlier. While the technology used was relatively new, the labor conditions had many precedents, and Uber could not have grown so quickly without them. The article especially focuses on the response of organized labor to Uber’s rise, an area that deserves more attention. It shows that the AFL-CIO— America’s main union federation—foresaw the rise of casualized labor and spent decades warning against it. In 2020, the coronavirus pandemic also illustrated drivers’ economic vulnerability and the need for greater regula­tion, validating labor’s decades-long warnings.

description: In this work we generalize the constant-roll condition for minimally coupled canonical scalar field inflation. Particularly, we shall assume that the scalar field satisfies the condition $\ddotϕ=α(ϕ) V'(ϕ)$, and we derive the field equations under this assumption. We call the framework extended constant-roll framework. Accordingly we calculate the inflationary indices and the corresponding observational indices of inflation. In order to demonstrate the inflationary viability, we choose three potentials that are problematic in the context of slow-roll dynamics, namely chaotic, linear power-law and exponential inflation, and by choosing a simple power-law form for the smooth function $α(ϕ)$, we show that in the extended constant-roll framework, the models are compatible with the latest 2018 Planck constraints on inflation. We also justify appropriately why we called this new framework extended constant-roll framework, and we show that the condition $\ddotϕ=α(ϕ) V'(ϕ)$ is equivalent to the condition $\ddotϕ=β(ϕ) H \dotϕ$, with the latter condition being a simple generalization of the constant-roll condition. Finally, we examine an interesting physical situation, in which a general extended constant-roll scalar field model is required to satisfy the cosmological tracker condition used in quintessence models. In contrast to the slow-roll and ordinary constant-roll cases, in which case the tracker condition is not compatible with neither the slow-roll or the ordinary constant-roll conditions, the extended constant-roll condition can be compatible with the tracker condition. This feature leads to a new inflationary phenomenological framework, the essential features of which we develop in brief.

description: Autonomous driving is regarded as one of the most promising remedies to shield human beings from severe crashes. To this end, 3D object detection serves as the core basis of perception stack especially for the sake of path planning, motion prediction, and collision avoidance etc. Taking a quick glance at the progress we have made, we attribute challenges to visual appearance recovery in the absence of depth information from images, representation learning from partially occluded unstructured point clouds, and semantic alignments over heterogeneous features from cross modalities. Despite existing efforts, 3D object detection for autonomous driving is still in its infancy. Recently, a large body of literature have been investigated to address this 3D vision task. Nevertheless, few investigations have looked into collecting and structuring this growing knowledge. We therefore aim to fill this gap in a comprehensive survey, encompassing all the main concerns including sensors, datasets, performance metrics and the recent state-of-the-art detection methods, together with their pros and cons. Furthermore, we provide quantitative comparisons with the state of the art. A case study on fifteen selected representative methods is presented, involved with runtime analysis, error analysis, and robustness analysis. Finally, we provide concluding remarks after an in-depth analysis of the surveyed works and identify promising directions for future work.

description: A supraglacial debris layer controls energy transfer to the ice surface and moderates ice ablation on debris-covered glaciers. Measurements of vertical temperature profiles within the debris enables the estimation of thermal diffusivities and sub-debris ablation rates. We have measured the debris-layer temperature profiles at 16 locations on Satopanth Glacier (central Himalaya) during the ablation seasons of 2016 and 2017. Debris temperature profile data are typically analysed using a finite-difference method, assuming that the debris layer is a homogeneous one-dimensional thermal conductor. We introduce three more methods for analysing such data that approximate the debris layer as either a single or a two-layered conductor. We analyse the performance of all four methods using synthetic experiments and by comparing the estimated ablation rates with in situ glaciological observations. Our analysis shows that the temperature measurements obtained at equispaced sensors and analysed with a two-layered model improve the accuracy of the estimated thermal diffusivity and sub-debris ablation rate. The accuracy of the ablation rate estimates is comparable to that of the in situ observations. We argue that measuring the temperature profile is a convenient and reliable method to estimate seasonal to sub-seasonal variations of ablation rates in the thickly debris-covered parts of glaciers.

description: Measuring the positions of optical vortices is an essential part in the researches of speckles and adaptive optics. The measurement accuracy is restricted by the performance of optical devices and the properties of optical vortices, such as density and size. In order to achieve high accuracy and wide range of application, the dual shearing-type Sagnac interferometers is proposed using two shearing plates to adjust the precision of optical vortices measurement. The shearing displacements are able to balance the measuring precision and the value of the intensity ratio point to provide optimum measurement performance. This method is useful for the observation of optical vortices with different sizes and densities, especially for the high density condition.

Abstract: Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are widely represented in ongoing regenerative medicine clinical trials due to their ease of autologous implantation. In bone regeneration, crosstalk between macrophages and hMSCs is critical with macrophages playing a key role in the recruitment and differentiation of hMSCs. However, engineered biomaterials able to both direct hMSC fate and modulate macrophage phenotype have not yet been identified. A novel combinatorial chemistry-microtopography screening platform, the ChemoTopoChip, is used to identify materials suitable for bone regeneration by screening with human immortalized mesenchymal stem cells (hiMSCs) and human macrophages. The osteoinduction achieved in hiMSCs cultured on the “hit” materials in basal media is comparable to that seen when cells are cultured in osteogenic media, illustrating that these materials offer a materials-induced alternative in bone-regenerative applications. These also exhibit immunomodulatory effects, concurrently polarizing macrophages towards a pro-healing phenotype. Control of cell response is achieved when both chemistry and topography are recruited to instruct the required cell phenotype, combining synergistically. The large library of materials reveals that the relative roles of microtopography and material chemistry are similar, and machine learning identifies key material and topographical features for cell-instruction.

description: We revisit the Riemann-Hilbert problem determined by Donaldson-Thomas invariants for the resolved conifold and for other small crepant resolutions. While this problem can be recast as a system of TBA-type equations in the conformal limit, solutions are ill-defined due to divergences in the sum over infinite trajectories in the spectrum of D2-D0-brane bound states. We explore various prescriptions to make the sum well-defined, show that one of them reproduces the existing solution in the literature, and identify an alternative solution which is better behaved in a certain limit. Furthermore, we show that a suitable asymptotic expansion of the $τ$ function reproduces the genus expansion of the topological string partition function for any small crepant resolution. As a by-product, we conjecture new integral representations for the triple sine function, similar to Woronowicz' integral representation for Faddeev's quantum dilogarithm.

Early-Time Measure in Eternal Inflation

description: In a situation like eternal inflation, where our data is replicated at infinitely-many other space-time events, it is necessary to make a prior assumption about our location to extract predictions. The principle of mediocrity entails that we live at asymptotic late times, when the occupational probabilities of vacua has settled to a near-equilibrium distribution. In this paper we further develop the idea that we instead exist during the approach to equilibrium, much earlier than the exponentially-long mixing time. In this case we are most likely to reside in vacua that are easily accessed dynamically. Using first-passage statistics, we prove that vacua that maximize their space-time volume at early times have: 1. maximal ever-hitting probability; 2. minimal mean first-passage time; and 3. minimal decay rate. These requirements are succinctly captured by an early-time measure. The idea that we live at early times is a predictive guiding principle, with many phenomenological implications. First, our vacuum should lie deep in a funneled region, akin to folding energy landscapes of proteins. Second, optimal landscape regions are characterized by relatively short-lived vacua, with lifetime of order the de Sitter Page time. For our vacuum, this lifetime is $\sim 10^{130}$~years, which is consistent with the Standard Model estimate due to Higgs metastability. Third, the measure favors vacua with small, positive vacuum energy. This can address the cosmological constant problem, provided there are sufficiently many vacua in the entire ensemble of funnels. As a concrete example, we study the Bousso-Polchinski lattice of flux vacua, and find that the early-time measure favors lattices with the fewest number of flux dimensions. This favors compactifications with a large hierarchy between the lightest modulus and all other Kähler and complex structure moduli.

description: Now a days, Text summarization has become important as the amount of text data available online grows at an exponential rate. Most of the text classification systems require going through a huge amount of data. In general, Producing exact and meaningful summaries of big texts is a time-consuming endeavour. Hence generating abstract summaries which retain the key information of the data and using it to train machine learning models will make these models space and time-efficient. Abstractive text summarization has been successful in moving from linear models to nonlinear neural network models using sparse models [1]. This success comes from the application of deep learning models on natural language processing tasks where these mod-els are capable of modeling the interrelating patterns in data without hand-crafted features. The Text to Text Transfer Transformer(T5) approach was used to investigate the text summarization problem, and the results showed that the Transfer Learning based model performed significantly better for abstractive text summarization than the Sequence to Sequence Recurrent Model.

description: Studying the statistical properties of the large-scale structure in the Universe with weak gravitational lensing is a prime goal of several current and forthcoming galaxy surveys. The power that weak lensing has to constrain cosmological parameters can be enhanced by considering statistics beyond second-order shear correlation functions or power spectra. One such higher-order probe that has proven successful in observational data is the density split statistics (DSS), in which one analyses the mean shear profiles around points that are classified according to their foreground galaxy density. In this paper, we generalise the most accurate DSS model to allow for a broad class of angular filter functions used for the classification of the different local density regions. This approach is motivated by earlier findings showing that an optimised filter can provide tighter constraints on model parameters compared to the standard top-hat case. We build on large deviation theory approaches and approximations thereof to model the matter density PDF, and on perturbative calculations of higher-order moments of the density field. The novel addition relies on the generalisation of these previously employed calculations to allow for general filter functions and is validated on several sets of numerical simulations. The revised model fits well the simulation measurements, with a residual systematic offset that is small compared to the statistical accuracy of current weak lensing surveys. The accuracy of the model is slightly lower for a compensated filter than for a non-negative filter function, and that it increases with the filter size. Using a Fisher matrix approach, we find constraints comparable to the commonly used two-point cosmic shear measures. Hence, our DSS model can be used in competitive analyses of current cosmic shear data, while it may need refinements for forthcoming lensing surveys.
