description: In this paper we propose and study a hybrid discrete in continuous mathematical model of collective motion under alignment and chemotaxis effect. Starting from the paper by Di Costanzo et al (2015a), in which the Cucker-Smale model (Cucker and Smale, 2007) was coupled with other cell mechanisms, to describe the cell migration and self-organization in the zebrafish lateral line primordium, we introduce a simplified model in which the coupling between an alignment and chemotaxis mechanism acts on a system of interacting particles. In particular we rely on a hybrid description in which the agents are discrete entities, while the chemoattractant is considered as a continuous signal. The proposed model is then studied both from an analytical and a numerical point of view. From the analytic point of view we prove, globally in time, existence and uniqueness of the solution. Then, the asymptotic behaviour of a linearised version of the system is investigated. Through a suitable Lyapunov functional we show that for $t\rightarrow +\infty$, the migrating aggregate exponentially converges to a state in which all the particles have a same position with zero velocity. Finally, we present a comparison between the analytical findings and some numerical results, concerning the behaviour of the full nonlinear system.

description: Key Enabling Technologies - Industrial Biotechnology, Nanotechnology, Micro and Nano-Electronics, Photonics, Advanced Materials, Advanced Manufacturing Technologies - have been put high on the European policy agenda since the late 2000s. They are seen as highly relevant preconditions/inputs to secure the competitiveness in many sectors and areas as they are known to be key enablers for subsequent technological developments in other fields. This policy brief intends to shed a light on the diffusion of Key Enabling Technologies as such as well as in different areas of application. We compare trends of the EU-27 countries with relevant international competitor/partner countries, based on patent applications - from the PATSTAT database - and trademark filings from the ISI-Trademark Data Collection (ISI-TM), which offers a unique data source for the analysis of the diffusion of technologies.

description: A new light responsive arylazopyrazole (AAP) containing polymer matrix thin film is fabricated by spin-coating of different concentrations of the AAP azo dye into the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymer at 150C. The new AAP molecular switch was also used to fabricate a solid-state PDMS-AAP waveguide by contact lithography and soft replica modeling methods in the micrometer scale. The refractive index of the spin-coated photoswitchable material can be modulated via the reversible trans-to-cis photoisomerization behavior of the AAP unit using different concentrations. When 0.01 M solution of the AAP unit was used, the refractive of the composite was 2.32 in the trans state and dropped to 1.85 in the cis state in the operating wavelength of 340 nm. At higher concentrations of 0.020 and 0.03 M, a wide refractive index tuning is achieved under the same wavelength. In 0.030 M the refractive index was 2.65 for the trans state and 2.0 for the cis state. The results suggest that the increase in refractive index tuning is related to the concentration of the AAP unit of the composite film. Theoretically, the spectral properties of the composite film are also simulated with two methods: 1) the Maxwell Equations; and 2) the frequency dependent finite element, showing excellent agreement for the different propagation modes of the proposed waveguide for regulated signals of 365/525 nm wavelengths. Furthermore, the photoisomerization of the PDMS-AAP thin film is analyzed with UV-vis spectroscopy to demonstrate the isomerization responses of the AAP moiety in the solid state. Additionally, preliminary photomechanical actuation properties of the composite film have been investigated. The PDMS-AAP waveguide described in this study provides a new approach for optically tunable photonics applications in the Visible-IR region.

description: We point out an inconsistency in perturbative QCD predictions previously used for dijet azimuthal decorrelations for azimuthal angles of $Δϕ_{\rm dijet} < 2π/3$ between the two jets. We show how the inconsistency arises and how the calculations can be modified to provide more accurate results that exhibit a smaller scale dependence and give a better description of the data than the inconsistent results. We also explain how the quality of the predictions strongly depends on a perceivedly minor detail in the definition of the dijet phase space and give recommendations for future measurements.

description: Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) focuses on modeling the relationship of detected objects among consecutive frames and merge them into different trajectories. MOT remains a challenging task as noisy and confusing detection results often hinder the final performance. Furthermore, most existing research are focusing on improving detection algorithms and association strategies. As such, we propose a novel framework that can effectively predict and mask-out the noisy and confusing detection results before associating the objects into trajectories. In particular, we formulate such "bad" detection results as a sequence of events and adopt the spatio-temporal point process}to model such events. Traditionally, the occurrence rate in a point process is characterized by an explicitly defined intensity function, which depends on the prior knowledge of some specific tasks. Thus, designing a proper model is expensive and time-consuming, with also limited ability to generalize well. To tackle this problem, we adopt the convolutional recurrent neural network (conv-RNN) to instantiate the point process, where its intensity function is automatically modeled by the training data. Furthermore, we show that our method captures both temporal and spatial evolution, which is essential in modeling events for MOT. Experimental results demonstrate notable improvements in addressing noisy and confusing detection results in MOT datasets. An improved state-of-the-art performance is achieved by incorporating our baseline MOT algorithm with the spatio-temporal point process model.

description: The precise estimation of resource usage is a complex and challenging issue due to the high variability and dimensionality of heterogeneous service types and dynamic workloads. Over the last few years, the prediction of resource usage and traffic has received ample attention from the research community. Many machine learning-based workload forecasting models have been developed by exploiting their computational power and learning capabilities. This paper presents the first systematic survey cum performance analysis-based comparative study of diversified machine learning-driven cloud workload prediction models. The discussion initiates with the significance of predictive resource management followed by a schematic description, operational design, motivation, and challenges concerning these workload prediction models. Classification and taxonomy of different prediction approaches into five distinct categories are presented focusing on the theoretical concepts and mathematical functioning of the existing state-of-the-art workload prediction methods. The most prominent prediction approaches belonging to a distinct class of machine learning models are thoroughly surveyed and compared. All five classified machine learning-based workload prediction models are implemented on a common platform for systematic investigation and comparison using three distinct benchmark cloud workload traces via experimental analysis. The essential key performance indicators of state-of-the-art approaches are evaluated for comparison and the paper is concluded by discussing the trade-offs and notable remarks.

description: Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of years of life lost. Genetic factors contribute to stroke prevalence, and candidate gene and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified variants associated with ischemic stroke risk. These variants often have small effects without obvious biological significance. Exome sequencing may discover predicted protein-altering variants with a potentially large effect on ischemic stroke risk.

description: We introduce a supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory whose low energy physics is that of the fractional quantum Hall effect. The supersymmetry allows us to solve the theory analytically. We quantise the vortices and, by relating their dynamics to a matrix model, show that their ground state wavefunction is in the same universality class as the Laughlin state. We further construct coherent state representations of the excitations of a finite number of vortices. These are quasi-holes. By an explicit computation of the Berry phase, without resorting to a plasma analogy, we show that these excitations have fractional charge and spin.

description: In X-ray binary star systems consisting of a compact object that accretes material from an orbiting secondary star, there is no straightforward means to decide if the compact object is a black hole or a neutron star. To assist this classification, we develop a Bayesian statistical model that makes use of the fact that X-ray binary systems appear to cluster based on their compact object type when viewed from a 3-dimensional coordinate system derived from X-ray spectral data. The first coordinate of this data is the ratio of counts in mid to low energy band (color 1), the second coordinate is the ratio of counts in high to low energy band (color 2), and the third coordinate is the sum of counts in all three bands. We use this model to estimate the probabilities that an X-ray binary system contains a black hole, non-pulsing neutron star, or pulsing neutron star. In particular, we utilize a latent variable model in which the latent variables follow a Gaussian process prior distribution, and hence we are able to induce the spatial correlation we believe exists between systems of the same type. The utility of this approach is evidenced by the accurate prediction of system types using Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer All Sky Monitor data, but it is not flawless. In particular, non-pulsing neutron systems containing "bursters" that are close to the boundary demarcating systems containing black holes tend to be classified as black hole systems. As a byproduct of our analyses, we provide the astronomer with public R code that can be used to predict the compact object type of X-ray binaries given training data.

The main proposed algorithm, called block-sparse PNLMS (BS-PNLMS), is based on the optimization of a mixed l2,1 norm of the adaptive filter coefficients. It is demonstrated that both the NLMS and the traditional PNLMS are special cases of BS-PNLMS. Meanwhile, a block-sparse improved PNLMS (BS-IPNLMS) is also derived for both sparse and dispersive impulse responses. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed BS-PNLMS and BS-IPNLMS algorithms outperformed the NLMS, PNLMS and IPNLMS algorithms with only a modest increase in computational complexity.

description: Hot water is a crucial demand for many of Ethiopia’s industrial and household heating systems. Most industries are using boilers powered by conventional energy sources to meet the demand for hot water. Due to environmental impact of conventional energy sources usage and the rise in fossil fuel prices, utilization of solar energies as a source of energy become a promising candidate for various applications. The MATLAB/SIMULINK software was introduced to study the technical and economic viability the solar water heating system with heat pipe evacuated tube collector. The monthly, seasonal and annual optimum tilt angles were estimated for the selected sites. Comparisons of total solar radiations were made at various optimum tilt angles for the selected locations. The estimated annual optimum tilt angles are 15o , 15.6o and 14o for Addis Ababa, Dire Dewa and Hawassa cities, respectively.

description: A long-standing evolutionary puzzle surrounds female sexual signals visible around the time of ovulation. Even among just primates, why do some species have substantial sexual swellings and/or bright colorations visible around females' genital regions, while other species are like humans, with no signs of ovulation visible? What is the evolutionary purpose behind not just these signs, but also this great variation seen among species? Here, we examine the evolutionary trade-offs associated with visual ovulation signalling using agent-based modelling. Our model predicts how various factors, including male genetic heterogeneity and reproductive inequality, female physiological costs, group size, and the weighting of genetic versus non-genetic benefits coming from males, each influence the strength of ovulation signalling. Our model also predicts that increasing the impacts of infanticide will increase ovulation signalling. We use comparative primate data to show that, as predicted by our model, larger group size and higher risk of infanticide each correlate with having stronger visual ovulation signs. Overall, our work resolves some old controversies and sheds new light on the evolution of visual female sexual signalling.

description: In this paper, we propose a model-free adaptive learning solution for a model-following control problem. This approach employs policy iteration, to find an optimal adaptive control solution. It utilizes a moving finite-horizon of model-following error measurements. In addition, the control strategy is designed by using a projection mechanism that employs Lagrange dynamics. It allows for real-time tuning of derived actor-critic structures to find the optimal model-following strategy and sustain optimized adaptation performance. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed framework is emphasized through a comparison with sliding mode and high-order model-free adaptive control approaches.

description: We study the effects of an on-site disorder potential in a gas of spinor (spin-1) ultracold atoms loaded in an optical lattice corresponding to both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin dependent interactions. Starting with a disordered spinor Bose-Hubbard model (SBHM) on a two dimensional square lattice, we observe the appearance of a Bose glass phase using the fraction of the lattice sites having finite superfluid order parameter and non integer local densities as an indicator. A precise distinction between three different types of phases namely, superfluid (SF), Mott insulator (MI) and Bose glass (BG) is done via a percolation analysis thereby demonstrating that a reliable enumeration of phases is possible at particular values of the parameters of the SBHM. Finally we present the phase diagram based on the above information for both antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic interactions.

description: Establishing tools to minimize the risk of water quality degradation is mandatory in highly anthropocentric estuaries such as Inhambane Bay (IB). IB is located in the southern coast of Mozambique (see Figure 1), is a local traditional fishery area, with an important marine biodiversity and a big anthropogenic pressure. IB is a bifurcated, shallow, bar-built estuary, relatively small, ~288 km2 in flood tide, where ~188 km2 (65%) are inter-tidal flats, eventual shoals and mangroves areas. IB is a meso-tidal estuary (Solana 2020), with an approximated tidal range of ~3.41 m. In this study, two field campaign were realized, in July 2019, dry season, and February 2021, rainy season. CTD profiles were realized in both campaigns, ACDP profiles in February 2021 and Lagrangian Drifters were deployed. The stratification was measured through Richardson Estuarine number (RiE) (Fischer 1976). In dry season campaigns, in main channel, CTDs observations shows mean and maximum salinity values of ~33.07 psu, and ~35.43 respectively, and form the rainy season campaigns ~30.7 psu, and ~34.3 psu. In the secondary channel, in dry season, the mean and maximum values were ~32.6 psu and ~34.8 psu. And in the rainy season ~30.7 psu and ~33.3 psu (see Figure 2 a, b, c and d). The ADCP profiles analyses shows the water column mean velocity preliminary estimations of ~0.6 ms-1, with maximum values of ~0.9 ms-1  in C10 station, and the top and bottom velocities differences mean value of ~0.3 ms-1. The analysis based on ~34.5 km course of Lagrangian Drifters in 19.55 hours, shows, an estimated mean superficial currents velocity of ~0.49 ms-1, with maximum values of 1.7 ms-1 (see Figure 4). The Rie analyses show that the assessed maximum values were in C1, M9 and I2 stations ~1.8*10-2, ~4.0*10-2, ~1.9*10-2, respectively (see Table 1), all off them less than 0.08. The observations evidenced that the estuary is well-mixed, that the velocity profiles are homogeneous and strongly polarized. The conclusions of this work may help in more general understanding of the spatial-temporal variability of the hydrodynamics within the IB supporting the developing of sustainable activities.

description: Federal legislation has led to a notable increase in pediatric studies submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), resulting in new pediatric information in product labeling. However, approximately 50% of drug labels still have insufficient information on safety, efficacy, or dosing in children. Neonatal information in labeling is even scarcer because neonates comprise a vulnerable subpopulation for which end point development is lagging and studies are more challenging.
