description: The performance of medical image classification has been enhanced by deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which are typically trained with cross-entropy (CE) loss. However, when the label presents an intrinsic ordinal property in nature, e.g., the development from benign to malignant tumor, CE loss cannot take into account such ordinal information to allow for better generalization. To improve model generalization with ordinal information, we propose a novel meta ordinal regression forest (MORF) method for medical image classification with ordinal labels, which learns the ordinal relationship through the combination of convolutional neural network and differential forest in a meta-learning framework. The merits of the proposed MORF come from the following two components: a tree-wise weighting net (TWW-Net) and a grouped feature selection (GFS) module. First, the TWW-Net assigns each tree in the forest with a specific weight that is mapped from the classification loss of the corresponding tree. Hence, all the trees possess varying weights, which is helpful for alleviating the tree-wise prediction variance. Second, the GFS module enables a dynamic forest rather than a fixed one that was previously used, allowing for random feature perturbation. During training, we alternatively optimize the parameters of the CNN backbone and TWW-Net in the meta-learning framework through calculating the Hessian matrix. Experimental results on two medical image classification datasets with ordinal labels, i.e., LIDC-IDRI and Breast Ultrasound Dataset, demonstrate the superior performances of our MORF method over existing state-of-the-art methods.
A Journey Through the Nation’s Body: Tobias Smollett’s «The Expedition of Humphry Clinker»
Creators: name: Sullam, Sara
Publisher: name: ACME
Year: 2017

description: In this essay, I will offer some brief considerations on how the bodily metaphor is particularly apt to a critical reading of Tobias Smollett’s The Expedition of Humphry Clinker on several and diverse levels. More specifically, I will focus (i) on the fluid generic status of the novel and on its position within the corpus of eighteenth-century British fiction; (ii) on the writing and reading of the nation’s body considered in its relationship with the structure of the novel; and (iii) on the city/country relationship as it emerges in the description of London, which, I suggest, can be read in parallel with George Cheyne’s considerations in The English Malady. In fact, as I will argue, for both his Scottishness and his practice of «medicine-by-post» (Wild 2006), Cheyne is a key figure to investigate several aspects of Humphry Clinker.

Meeting the “other” body: physical encountersrs in eighteenth-century women’s travel books
Creators: name: Guerra, Lia
Publisher: name: ACME
Year: 2017

description: This paper addresses eighteenth-century women’s travel writing outside Europe from the perspective of their representation of the (foreign) body. The assumption is that while gazing at the others’ bodies, women were forcing themselves into a perception of their own bodies as clearly distinct from or as cognate to the foreign ones. The examples provided aim at showing how the representation of other bodies calls for an acknowledgment of domestic cultural issues, whether the debate is on ethical problems like slavery or over the social status of women, or simply over codified cultural symbols. Behn, Justice, Montagu, Vigor, Kindersley, Schaw, Craven, Falconbridge, Parker, Fay constitute the corpus of authors considered, all of them recording travels to far away unusual destinations.

description: Post-Inflationary String Cosmology, Bologna, University of Bologna, Italy, 18 Sep 2017 - 21 Sep 2017
description: An early epoch of inflationary expansion would explain the isotropy and flatness of the Universe and provide the seeds for the CMB anisotropies and large scale structure formation. Over the last decade, string theory has provided a well-motivated framework to address the microscopic nature of inflation and its sensitivity to quantum gravity effects. However the post-inflationary epoch has been relatively little explored so far. The main cosmological challenges to be addressed include pre- and re-heating, the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry, the nature of dark matter, dark radiation and dark energy. String theory -- with its unified description of gravity and particle physics -- provides a promising framework to address these connections between cosmology and particle physics. Ultimately, post-inflationary physics will strongly constrain string models of the early Universe and could have implications for a wide range of experiments and observations, from the CMB to dark matter detection, from gravity waves to colliders. The workshop will bring together experts in string theory, cosmology and astroparticle physics who will focus on post-inflationary string cosmology with plenty of time for informal discussions and collaboration.

description: How people think, feel, and behave, primarily is a representation of their personality characteristics. By being conscious of personality characteristics of individuals whom we are dealing with or decided to deal with, one can competently ameliorate the relationship, regardless of its type. With the rise of Internet-based communication infrastructures (social networks, forums, etc.), a considerable amount of human communications take place there. The most prominent tool in such communications, is the language in written and spoken form that adroitly encodes all those essential personality characteristics of individuals. Text-based Automatic Personality Prediction (APP) is the automated forecasting of the personality of individuals based on the generated/exchanged text contents. This paper presents a novel knowledge graph-enabled approach to text-based APP that relies on the Big Five personality traits. To this end, given a text a knowledge graph which is a set of interlinked descriptions of concepts, was built through matching the input text's concepts with DBpedia knowledge base entries. Then, due to achieving more powerful representation the graph was enriched with the DBpedia ontology, NRC Emotion Intensity Lexicon, and MRC psycholinguistic database information. Afterwards, the knowledge graph which is now a knowledgeable alternative for the input text was embedded to yield an embedding matrix. Finally, to perform personality predictions the resulting embedding matrix was fed to four suggested deep learning models independently, which are based on convolutional neural network (CNN), simple recurrent neural network (RNN), long short term memory (LSTM) and bidirectional long short term memory (BiLSTM). The results indicated a considerable improvements in prediction accuracies in all of the suggested classifiers.

description: KAGRA uses cryogenics to cool its sapphire test masses down to 20 K to reduce the thermal noise. However, cryocooler vibration and structural resonances of the cryostat couple to test mass and can contaminate the detector sensitivity. We performed vibration analysis of the cooling system at cryogenic temperature to study its impact on detector sensitivity. Our measurement show shield vibration below 1 Hz is not impacted by cryocooler operation or structural resonances and follows ground motion. The noise floor of the shield in 1-100 Hz was observed to be 2-3 order of magnitude larger than seismic motion even without cryocooler operation. The operation of cryocoolers does not change the noise floor, but 2.0 Hz peaks and their harmonics were observed over the entire spectrum (1-100 Hz). These results were used to calculate the coupling of cooling system vibration to the test mass. We conclude that vibration from the cooling system does not limit KAGRA design sensitivity.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: In the $\rm SU(3)_F$ symmetry limit, using two- and three-particle distribution amplitudes of $B^{\pm}$-meson for $B_s$, the transition form factors of semileptonic $B_{s}\to K_{0}^*(1430)$ decays are calculated in the framework of the light-cone sum rules. The two-particle distribution amplitudes, $φ_{_{+}}(ω)$ and $φ_{_{-}}(ω)$ have the most important contribution in estimation of the form factors $f_{+}(q^2)$, $f_{-}(q^2)$ and $f_{T}(q^2)$. The knowledge of the behavior of $φ_{_+}(ω)$ is still rather limited. Therefore, we consider three different parametrizations for the shapes of $φ_{_+}(ω)$ that are derived from the phenomenological models. Using the form factors $f_{+}$, $f_{-}$ and $f_{T}$, the semileptonic $B_s \to K_0^*(1430) l \bar{ν_{l}}$ and $B_s \to K_0^*(1430) l \bar{l}/ν\barν$, $l=e, μ, τ$ decays are analyzed. The branching fractions for the aforementioned decays, in addition the longitudinal lepton polarization asymmetries are calculated. A comparison between our results with predictions of other approaches is provided.

description: Background: Post-operative pain has humanitarian, physiological and economic implications. So far the severity of post-operative pain and the effectiveness of analgesic prescribing has not been investigated in the University of Gondar previously. Methods: Baseline data for pain in the post-operative period was gathered from 51 patients in November and December 2009, using a numerical scale or visual-analogue scale (VAS) according to patient ability. Analgesic prescription and administration information was collected for all patients, allowing the relationship between pain severity and analgesic practice to be elucidated. Results: Over half (54.9%) of the patients had moderate or severe pain at rest, whilst nearly three-quarters (72.6%) had these levels of dynamic pain. No patients were prescribed paracetamol. Overall, 56.9% of the patients were prescribed a NSAID and 23.5% had received it in the preceding 8 hours. These rates did not vary significantly with pain severity. Only 3.9% of patients had opioid analgesia prescribed. Discussion: Current analgesic practice could be improved. Recommendations are made to introduce a drug prescription and administration chart to the hospital, with training for the relevant staff. Future re-auditing of analgesic use may help to improve practice.

description: Leptoquarks are prime candidates for explaining the intriguing hints for lepton flavour universality violation. In particular, the $SU(2)_L$ doublet of scalar leptoquarks $S_2$ is capable of providing an explanation for the tensions between the measurements and the Standard Model predictions in $(g-2)_μ$, $b\to s\ell^+ \ell^-$ and $b\to cτν$ processes, as well as in non-resonant di-electron production. However, in the minimal setup with a single leptoquark generation, a common explanation for all these issues is not possible as this would lead to unacceptably large charged lepton flavour violation. We therefore propose a model with three generations of $S_2$, each coupling exclusively to a single lepton flavour, \textit{i.e.}~a model extending the Standard Model particle content by an electroquark, a muoquark and a tauquark. We show that after taking into account other constraints, such as those originating from electroweak precision observables and $ΔF=2$ processes, it is possible to provide a combined explanation for all these hints of lepton flavour universality violation. Moreover, we find that the presence of the tauquark can generate a dimension-six ${\cal O}_9^U$ operator via off-shell photon penguin diagrams, which, together with the muoquark contribution, further improves the global fit to $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ data.

description: Machine learning models have been successfully employed in the diagnosis of Schizophrenia disease. The impact of classification models and the feature selection techniques on the diagnosis of Schizophrenia have not been evaluated. Here, we sought to access the performance of classification models along with different feature selection approaches on the structural magnetic resonance imaging data. The data consist of 72 subjects with Schizophrenia and 74 healthy control subjects. We evaluated different classification algorithms based on support vector machine (SVM), random forest, kernel ridge regression and randomized neural networks. Moreover, we evaluated T-Test, Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC), Wilcoxon, entropy, Bhattacharyya, Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (MRMR) and Neighbourhood Component Analysis (NCA) as the feature selection techniques. Based on the evaluation, SVM based models with Gaussian kernel proved better compared to other classification models and Wilcoxon feature selection emerged as the best feature selection approach. Moreover, in terms of data modality the performance on integration of the grey matter and white matter proved better compared to the performance on the grey and white matter individually. Our evaluation showed that classification algorithms along with the feature selection approaches impact the diagnosis of Schizophrenia disease. This indicates that proper selection of the features and the classification models can improve the diagnosis of Schizophrenia.

Per la conoscenza della pagina polibiana disponiamo anche di Ateneo (fine II sec. d.C.), che ne citò il contenuto nel vi libro dei Deipnosophistai (vi 274f-275a), e di due ulteriori estratti costantiniani, questa volta da libri non tramandati dell’opera dello storico Diodoro (I sec. a.C.), che attinse anche alle Storie di Polibio: Exc. de Sententiis n. 365 [Diod. xxxi fr. 36 Goukowsky] e n. 436 [Diod. xxxvii fr. 3 Goukowsky]. Attraverso una riflessione sull’affidabilità dei testi di Ateneo e Diodoro in rapporto con quello delle Storie, e un costante confronto con tutta l’opera polibiana volto ad indagare lingua e stile dell’autore, l’articolo giunge a una ricostruzione in parte diversa da quella del Büttner-Wobst, il cui testo riproducono tutte le edizioni moderne.

description: Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that is one of the significant causes of death in the elderly population. Many deep learning techniques have been proposed to diagnose AD using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. Predicting AD using 2D slices extracted from 3D MRI scans is challenging as the inter-slice information gets lost. To this end, we propose a novel and lightweight framework termed 'Biceph-Net' for AD diagnosis using 2D MRI scans that model both the intra-slice and inter-slice information. Biceph-Net has been experimentally shown to perform similar to other Spatio-temporal neural networks while being computationally more efficient. Biceph-Net is also superior in performance compared to vanilla 2D convolutional neural networks (CNN) for AD diagnosis using 2D MRI slices. Biceph-Net also has an inbuilt neighbourhood-based model interpretation feature that can be exploited to understand the classification decision taken by the network. Biceph-Net experimentally achieves a test accuracy of 100% in the classification of Cognitively Normal (CN) vs AD, 98.16% for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) vs AD, and 97.80% for CN vs MCI vs AD.

description: Background Malnutrition and HIV/AIDS, both common problems in Ethiopia, are closely interlinked disorders. There are few studies describing the prevalence and determinants of malnutrition among children with HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of malnutrition among HIV-positive children. Methods An institution based cross-sectional study was conducted on 301 HIV positive children aged 6 months to 14 years at the Pediatric ART clinics of Felege Hiwot and Gondar referral hospitals, northwest Ethiopia. Weight and height/length measurements were taken following standard procedures. Data were collected from caregivers using a structured questionnaire. Logistic regression analyses were used to determine the effect of different factors on malnutrition Results The overall prevalence of malnutrition (using the mid-upper arm circumference) was 42.9%, with 10.3% severe malnutrition. Among under-five children, 41.7% were underweight, 65% stunted, and 5.8% wasted. Malnutrition was significantly associated with the age of the child (OR=4.10 for underweight and OR=1.85 for stunting), absence of dietary counseling (OR=3.78), presence of eating problems (OR=2.14), family monthly income (OR=3.08), late HIV diagnosis (OR=4.03), and duration of follow-up at ART clinics (OR=3.33). Conclusion There is a high burden of malnutrition among children living with HIV/AIDS. The age of the child, duration of follow-up at HIV clinic, absence of dietary counseling, presence of eating problems, late HIV diagnosis, and low monthly income were significantly associated with malnutrition. We recommend nutritional management and dietary counseling to improve the nutritional status of HIV-positive children during HIV/AIDS care and treatment.

description: The cosmic-ray fluxes of electrons and positrons ($e^{\pm}$) are measured with high precision by the space-borne particle spectrometer AMS-02. To infer a precise interpretation of the production processes for $e^{\pm}$ in our Galaxy, it is necessary to have an accurate description of the secondary component, produced by the interaction of cosmic-ray proton and helium with the interstellar medium atoms. We determine new analytical functions of the Lorentz invariant cross section for the production of $π^\pm$ and $K^\pm$ by fitting data from collider experiments. We also evaluate the invariant cross sections for several other channels, involving for example hyperon decays, contributing at the few \% level on the total cross section. For all these particles, the relevant 2 and 3 body decay channels are implemented, with the polarized $μ^\pm$ decay computed with next-to-leading order corrections. The cross section for scattering of nuclei heavier than protons is modeled by fitting data on $p+C$ collisions. The total differential cross section $dσ/dT_{e^\pm}(p+p\rightarrow e^\pm+X)$ is predicted from 10 MeV up to 10 TeV of $e^\pm$ energy with an uncertainty of about 5-7\% in the energies relevant for AMS-02 positron flux, thus dramatically reducing the precision of the theoretical model with respect to the state of the art. Finally, we provide a prediction for the secondary Galactic $e^\pm$ source spectrum with an uncertainty of the same level. As a service for the scientific community, we provide numerical tables and a script to calculate energy-differential cross sections.

Il linguaggio del corpo: tra oratore e attore

description: Fedeltà alla tradizione ciceroniana, ma, insieme, inserimento di qualche parziale, occasionale differenza: questa la posizione di Quintiliano sulle caratteristiche dell’actio, termine che egli usa senza differenze da pronuntiatio, seguendo Cicerone ma distinguendosi dagli autori precedenti al modello di Arpino. Ma in entrambi gli autori emerge la volontà di distinguere l’actio dell’attore da quella dell’oratore: con netta preferenza per la figura professionale di quest’ultimo. L’attore, che soggiace a una condanna morale perché della verità è solo imitatore, mira a un’alterazione pesante della realtà, mentre l’oratore tende a un’imitazione leggera: è imitatore della vita vera. L’oratore infatti non deve imitare gli attori e la loro effeminatezza, ma deve tendere a un’actio virile, appresa dalla palestra o dalla piazza d’armi dei soldati. Sono presi in esame per questo confronto, oltre al trattato di Quintiliano, soprattutto i passi del De oratore ciceroniano, e occasionalmente delle altre opere di retorica, dove l’actio viene definita, sul modello di Demostene, come la prima, ma contemporaneamente anche come la seconda e la terza dote dell’oratore.

Cicerone nella Controriforma. Girolamo Ragazzoni umanista e vescovo
Creators: name: Gatti, Fabio
Publisher: name: ACME
Year: 2017

description: Nella storia della fortuna di Cicerone, l’età della Controriforma è un periodo non specificamente indagato, benché la presenza dell’oratore sia fondamentale nella formazione di molti protagonisti del rinnovamento cattolico e poi nei nuovi sistemi educativi elaborati per formare un clero più qualificato. L’articolo intende mettere in luce il ruolo centrale assunto da Cicerone in tale delicata fase storica, concentrandosi in particolare sulla figura esemplare di Girolamo Ragazzoni (1537 ca-1592), commentatore delle Epistulae ad Familiares e volgarizzatore delle Filippiche. Ragazzoni, da giovane umanista in stretto contatto con Paolo Manuzio e Carlo Sigonio, parteciperà al Concilio, tenendone l’orazione conclusiva, per poi diventare nel 1577 vescovo di Bergamo: lì, operando in collaborazione con Carlo Borromeo, si rivelerà uno dei più solerti esecutori dell’opera di riforma interna alla Chiesa, in particolare nel settore pedagogico e scolastico.

Proteo tra esegesi razionalistiche, paradossografia e credulità popolare. A proposito di Luc. «DMar.» 4
Creators: name: Floridi, Lucia
Publisher: name: ACME
Year: 2017

description: L’articolo intende illustrare le modalità con cui si realizza, in Luc. DMar. 4, Proteo e Menelao, il confronto con il modello epico, Od. 4.351-569. Si cercherà di dimostrare come l’ironia della riscrittura di Luciano si sostanzi non solo della discrasia rispetto al modello, ma anche di un gioco deliberato con gli interessi di certa critica, che “sezionava” i testi poetici per ricavarne significati allegorici e interpretazioni razionalistiche. L’insistenza di Menelao, nel dialogo di Luciano, sul carattere “incredibile” della metamorfosi di Proteo e la sua ostinazione a non ritenerla possibile a dispetto dell’evidenza autoptica saranno interpretate come il possibile riflesso parodico delle esegesi razionalistiche di cui il passo odissiaco era stato fatto oggetto. Si noterà poi come il ricorso al vocabolario del “meraviglioso” accosti il dialogo al genere dei mirabilia, apparentandolo ad altri scritti di Luciano in cui il lessico e le immagini della paradossografia sono utilizzati con una notevole varietà di scopi – non ultima la presa di distanza dalla ciarlataneria e dalle false credenze. In tale contesto si suggerirà che Proteo – esplicitamente accusato di γοητεία da Menelao – possa essere accostato alle tante figure di ciarlatani che in età imperiale irretivano le folle per interesse personale e per lucro, e in particolare al filosofo Peregrino, che proprio del soprannome di Proteo amava fregiarsi.

description: Si-doped GaN films were grown on $\textit{c}$-sapphire by rf magnetron reactive co-sputtering of GaAs and Si at various partial pressures of N$_2$ in Ar-N2 growth atmosphere and their epitaxial character was ascertained by phi-scans. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy revealed $\thicksim$2 at.% Si in all the films, but the N/Ga ratio decreased substantially as N$_2$ percentage was reduced from 100% to 10%. High resolution x-ray diffraction revealed the dominant presence of edge dislocations ($\thicksim$10$^{12}$ cm$^{-2}$) in the films grown at 30% - 100% N$_2$, which decreased to $\thicksim$5 x 10$^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$ at lower N$_2$ percentages, at which, the density of screw dislocations was found to increase and attained values comparable to that of edge dislocations. The lattice parameters ($\textit{a}$ and $\textit{c}$) were obtained independently to determine the in-plane and out-of-plane components of strain in films, which were analyzed to deduce the hydrostatic and biaxial strain contributions. The film grown at 100% N$_2$ displayed large micro-strain and hydrostatic strain due to excess/interstitial nitrogen, both of which decreased with the initial reduction of N$_2$ percentage, but increased again below 30% N$_2$ due to Ar incorporation. The films grown above 75% N$_2$ displayed compressive biaxial stress, which is attributed to possible nitrogen incorporation into grain boundaries and tensile side of edge dislocations. The reversal of biaxial stress to tensile character in films grown below 75% N$_2$ is explained by the prevalence of in-plane tensile stress generated during coalescence. The tensile stress decreased in films grown below 30% N$_2$, which is ascribed to the Ar incorporation and voided morphology. The presence of Si in the films does not have a significant influence on strain behaviour and appears to be masked by the dominant growth-related intrinsic effects.

description: La fama di Francesco Melzi, che ha affiancato Leonardo a Milano, a Roma e in Francia e ne ha ereditato le carte e i disegni ricavandone il Libro di Pittura, è indiscussa. Tuttavia la storia inizia solo ora a chiarirsi: inediti documenti provano che Francesco risiedette per lunghi periodi dell’anno non a Vaprio d’Adda, come avevano tramandato alcune fonti tarde, bensì presso la canonica di San Giovanni Evangelista di Canonica di Pontirolo, dove morì nel 1567. Questa data costituisce una nuova acquisizione, così come il suo testamento del 1565, qui pubblicato per la prima volta.

description: To realize the applicative potential of 2D twistronic devices, scalable synthesis and assembly techniques need to meet stringent requirements in terms of interface cleanness and twist-angle homogeneity. Here, we show that small-angle twisted bilayer graphene assembled from separated CVD-grown graphene single-crystals can ensure high-quality transport properties, determined by a device-scale-uniform moireé potential. Via low-temperature dual-gated magnetotransport, we demonstrate the hallmarks of a $2.4^\circ$ -twisted superlattice, including tunable regimes of interlayer coupling, reduced Fermi velocity, large interlayer capacitance, and density-independent Brown-Zak oscillations. The observation of these moiré-induced electrical transport features establishes CVD-based twisted bilayer graphene as an alternative to 'tear-and-stack' exfoliated flakes for fundamental studies, while serving as a proof-of-concept for future large-scale assembly.
