description: Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt die Anwendung von Schoenbergs total positiven Funktionen, sowie exponentieller B-Splines in der Zeit-Frequenz-Analyse. Wir werden aufzeigen, dass sich diese Funktionen sehr gut als Fenster der Gabor-Transformation eignen und darüber hinaus anwendungsorientierte Algorithmen zur Implementierung angeben. Nach einer kurzen Einführung in die Thematik betrachten wir zunächst die Zak-Transformierten der genannten Funktionen und charakterisieren für eine Teilklasse der total positiven Funktionen ihre Nullstellenmengen. Dies liefert bereits Gabor-Frames mit ganzzahligem oversampling und gibt Hinweise über die Existenz im Fall von rationalem oversampling. Anschließend beschäftigen wir uns mit Gabor-Systemen auf beliebigen separablen Gittern und legen einige Situationen dar, in welchen die Systeme der betrachteten Funktionen einen Frame liefern. In diesen Fällen beschreiben wir Algorithmen zur Konstruktion unendlich vieler verschiedener Duale mit kompakten Trägern, welche gegen den kanonischen Dual konvergieren. Weiter geben wir einen kurzen Einblick in die sich ergebenden Möglichkeiten zur Bildung von Gabor-Frames über nicht-separablen Gittern. Abschließend erläutern wir, wie die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse genutzt werden können, um diskrete Gabor-Frames und deren Duale zu konstruieren.
description: This thesis deals with the applicability of Schoenberg's totally positive functions and exponential B-splines in time-frequency analysis. We show that these functions provide excellent windows for the Gabor transform and give some application-oriented algorithms. After a brief introduction to the topic, we consider the Zak transform of totally positive functions and exponential B-splines. We characterize the zero set of this transform for a special subclass of totally positive functions, which directly leads to the existence of Gabor frames with integer oversampling, and gives some information about the case of rational oversampling. Afterwards, we deal with Gabor systems on arbitrary separable lattices and present some concrete situations, where the considered functions yield a frame. In these cases, we describe algorithms for constructing infinitely many different duals with compact support, which converge to the canonical dual. We also provide a brief insight how to handle Gabor systems on non-separable lattices. Finally, we explain to construct discrete Gabor frames and their duals in the aforementioned situations.

Type material Type series of two females of Lycosa conspersa from Spain, Baleares, Mallorca, Ses Prat de San Jordi, end April, and Soller, mid-May, Schaufuss leg. (ZMB 7912); examined. The two females belong to different species. One of the females is Arctosa fulvolineata, the other one has an epigyne corresponding to the original drawing by KOCH (1882) and is selected here as the lectotype. Comments This species has not been mentioned since the original description, with the exception of ROEWER ‘S (1955) transfer to the genus Trochosula, without any justification. KOCH ’s figure 33 (1882) of the epigyne resembles the epigyne of Hogna radiata (Latreille, 1817), a widespread species in the Mediterranean. Like many large lycosids in the Mediterranean, this species complex is in need of revision and a conclusion about synonymy has to be postponed. Material from Mallorca is needed to resolve the situation. This is also the case for three other Lycosa species described by L. Koch from Mallorca (see below): Lycosa fraissei, L. insulana and L. simplex. They are all large species and Koch’s figures 33-36 all show the same type of epigyne (see Figs 17-20). ROEWER (1955) transferred these species (without further justification) to three different genera: Trochosula, Lycorma and Pirata. To facilitate future studies, we consider it better to return them to their original genus. Topotypic material may help solve the identity of these problematic species.

description: Optical-model potentials (OMPs) continue to play a key role in nuclear reaction calculations. However, the uncertainty of phenomenological OMPs in widespread use -- inherent to any parametric model trained on data -- has not been fully characterized, and its impact on downstream users of OMPs remains unclear. Here we assign well-calibrated uncertainties for two representative global OMPs, those of Koning-Delaroche and Chapel Hill '89, using Markov-Chain Monte Carlo for parameter inference. By comparing the canonical versions of these OMPs against the experimental data originally used to constrain them, we show how a lack of outlier rejection and a systematic underestimation of experimental uncertainties contributes to bias of, and overconfidence in, best-fit parameter values. Our updated, uncertainty-quantified versions of these OMPs address these issues and yield complete covariance information for potential parameters. Scattering predictions generated from our ensembles show improved performance both against the original training corpora of experimental data and against a new "test" corpus comprising many of the experimental single-nucleon scattering data collected over the last twenty years. Finally, we apply our uncertainty-quantified OMPs to two case studies of application-relevant cross sections. We conclude that, for many common applications of OMPs, including OMP uncertainty should become standard practice. To facilitate their immediate use, digital versions of our updated OMPs and related tools for forward uncertainty propagation are included as Supplementary Material.

description: In many statistical applications, one encounters populations that form homogenous subgroups regarding one or several characteristics. Across the subgroups, however, heterogeneity may often be found. Mixture distributions are a natural means to model data from such applications. This PhD thesis is based on two projects that focus on such applications. In the first project, spatial nanoscale clusters formed by Ras proteins in the cell membrane are investigated. Such clusters play a crucial role in intracellular communication and are thus of interest in cancer research. In this case, the subgroups are clustered and non-clustered proteins. In the second project, epigenomic data obtained from sequencing experiments are integrated with another genomic or epigenomic input, aiming, e.g., to detect genes that contribute to the development of cancer. Here, the subgroups are defined by a) genes presenting congruent (epi)genomic aberrations in both considered variables, b) genes presenting incongruent aberrations, and c) genes lacking aberrations in at least one of the variables. Employing a Bayesian framework, objects are classified in both projects by fitting finite univariate mixture distributions with a small fixed number of components to values from a score summarizing relevant information about the research question. Such mixture distributions have favorable characteristics in terms of interpretation and present little sensitivity to label switching in Markov Chain Monte Carlo analyses. Mixtures of gamma distributions are considered for Ras proteins, while mixtures of normal and exponential or gamma distributions are a focus for the bioinformatic analysis. In the latter, classification is the primary goal, while in the Ras protein application, estimating key parameters of the spatial clustering is of more interest. The results of both projects are presented in this thesis. For both applications, the methods have been implemented in software and their performance is compared with competing approaches on experimental as well as on simulated data. To warrant an appropriate simulation of Ras protein patterns, a new cluster point process model called the double Matérn cluster process is developed and described in this thesis.

description: The first study of the shapes of jets arising from bottom (b) quarks in heavy ion collisions is presented. Jet shapes are studied using charged hadron constituents as a function of their radial distance from the jet axis. Lead-lead (PbPb) collision data at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV were recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC, with an integrated luminosity of 1.69 nb$^{-1}$. Compared to proton-proton collisions, a redistribution of the energy in b jets to larger distances from the jet axis is observed in PbPb collisions. This medium-induced redistribution is found to be substantially larger for b jets than for inclusive jets.

description: Protein-energy malnutrition has been identified as one of the problems in East Africa. Attempts have been made to combat this nutritional problem by developing nutritious foods of high protein and energy value from cereal-legume combinations. This study aimed to develop nutritious and sensorial acceptable teff based expanded product using twin screw extruder through optimization of extrusion process variables. Experimental design with barrel temperature (120,140,160°C), feed moisture content (14, 17, 20%) and blend ratio BR1 (70T:20M:10L), BR2 (60T:25M:15L) and BR3 (50T:30M:20L) as independent variables which were three factors at three levels produced 20 different runs. The experimental study was performed using response surface methodology face centred central composite design to investigate the effect of independent variables such as barrel temperature, feed moisture content and blend ratio on products functional properties (water absorption index and water solubility index),physical properties (expansion ratio, specific length),textural property (hardness) and sensory quality. Proximate composition, mineral content, anti-nutritional content and functional properties values for raw materials, blended flour were evaluated and the blended flour was extruded then extrudate proximate composition, mineral and anti-nutritional content, physical, textural, functional properties and sensory quality evaluation were investigated. The maximum expansion ratio (4.85mm/mm), maximum water absorption index (7.80 g/g),minimum bulk density(0.108 g/cm3) and minimum hardness (13.49N) values of the extrudates were observed at 1400C, 14% feed moisture content and 60T:25M:15L blend ratio. Sensory quality evaluation of extrudate produced at 140ºC barrel temperature, 14% feed moisture content and 60T:25M:15L blend ratios with added vanilla powder were significantly (P<0.05) better in colour (8.33 ± 21), flavour (8.35 ±0.76), crispiness (8.33±0.64) and overall acceptability (8.56 ± 0.79).The model developed could be used for designing of extrusion conditions for getting extrudates with desirable physical characteristics.

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We study the lattice random walk dynamics in a heterogeneous space of two media separated by an interface and having different diffusivity and bias. Depending on the position of the interface, there exist two exclusive ways to model the dynamics: (1) Type A dynamics whereby the interface is placed between two lattice points, and (2) Type B dynamics whereby the interface is placed on a lattice point. For both types, we obtain exact results for the one-dimensional generating function of the Green's function or propagator for the composite system in unbounded domain as well as domains confined with reflecting, absorbing, and mixed boundaries. For the case with reflecting confinement in the absence of bias, the steady-state probability shows a step-like behavior for the Type A dynamics, while it is uniform for the Type B dynamics. We also derive explicit expressions for the first-passage probability and the mean first-passage time, and compare the hitting time dependence to a single target. Finally, considering the continuous-space continuous-time limit of the propagator, we obtain the boundary conditions at the interface. At the interface, while the flux is the same, the probability density is discontinuous for Type A and is continuous for Type B. For the latter we derive a generalized version of the so-called leather boundary condition in the appropriate limit.

description: Integration of multiple sensor modalities and deep learning into Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) systems are areas of significant interest in current research. Multi-modality is a stepping stone towards achieving robustness in challenging environments and interoperability of heterogeneous multi-robot systems with varying sensor setups. With maplab 2.0, we provide a versatile open-source platform that facilitates developing, testing, and integrating new modules and features into a fully-fledged SLAM system. Through extensive experiments, we show that maplab 2.0's accuracy is comparable to the state-of-the-art on the HILTI 2021 benchmark. Additionally, we showcase the flexibility of our system with three use cases: i) large-scale (approx. 10 km) multi-robot multi-session (23 missions) mapping, ii) integration of non-visual landmarks, and iii) incorporating a semantic object-based loop closure module into the mapping framework.

Year: 2008

description: Three yeast strains were used for biomass production of baker's yeast using wine, brewer and baker's yeast strains. The effect of growing yeast saccharomayces cerevisiae on cane molasses with respect to baker's yeast production was assayed. All yeast strains were cultured in YPD microbiological media and cane molasses media; their growth properties and biomass yield were examined using different substrate concentration of cane molasses and different nitrogen source chemical compounds. The studies on the feasibility of different types of yeast growth on cane molasses has been analyzed here. As a result of the kinetics study of growth of three yeast strains shows that baker's yeast strain gives the best results to know a generation time reduced high growth rate and a high quantity of biomass. The maximum biomass yield and protein concentration was obtained with the 5 %(w/v) cane molasses of bakers` yeast; the effect of different concentration of cane molasses (5%, 10% and 15% sugar concentration) on biomass yield and protein concentration of bakers, wine and brewery yeast strains were studied. Biomass and protein formation was affected by the type of nitrogen present in the medium; high yield of protein being achieved in fermentation medium containing 2 % (w/v) (NH4)2SO4. Conversely medium, containing potassium nitrate had suppressive effect of protein production. Baker's yeast production was industrialized using baker's yeast strain in 5%(w/v) cane molasses with addition of ammonium sulphate.The results obtained on industrial scale feasibility study shows that the unit costs for the baker's yeast production are $2.4 per kilogram, while the local market price for the baker's yeast is $7.00/kg. It has good market demand and profitability analysis also provides positive results. Keywords: Baker's yeast (saccharomayces cerevisiae), Biomass, molasses and Single protein.

A promising formation channel for symbiotic X-ray binaries: cases of IGR J17329-2731 and 4U 1700+24
Creators: name: Ablimit, Iminhaji

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Recent observations demonstrate that the symbiotic X-ray binary (SyXB) IGR J17329-2731 contains a highly magnetized neutron star (NS) which accretes matter through the wind from its giant star companion, and suggest that 4U 1700+24 may also have a highly magnetized NS. Accretion-induced collapse (AIC) from oxygen-neon-magnesium white dwarf (ONeMg WD) + red giant (RG) star binaries is one promising channel to form these SyXBs, while other long standing formation channels have difficulties to produce these SyXBs. By considering non-magnetic and magnetic ONeMg WDs, I investigate the evolution of ONeMg WD + RG binaries with the MESA stellar evolution code for producing SyXBs with non-magnetic or magnetized NSs. In the pre-AIC evolution with magnetic confinement, the mass accumulation efficiency of the accreting WD is increased at low mass transfer rate compared to the non-magnetic case. The newborn NSs formed via AIC of highly magnetized WDs could inherit the large magnetic field through conservation of magnetic flux, and the systems could have a long age compatible with that of the red giant companions. These young and highly magnetized NSs could accrete matters from the stellar wind of the giant companions to that shine as those observed SyXBs, and could preserve their high magnetic field during this time. The MESA calculation results show that the initial parameter (initial RG mass and orbital period) space for the AIC with magnetic confinement to form SyXBs with highly magnetized NSs shifts to be lower and narrower compared to that of the no magnetic confinement case.

Approximate Euclidean lengths and distances beyond Johnson-Lindenstrauss

Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Data Structures and Algorithms (cs.DS)

description: A classical result of Johnson and Lindenstrauss states that a set of $n$ high dimensional data points can be projected down to $O(\log n/ε^2)$ dimensions such that the square of their pairwise distances is preserved up to a small distortion $ε\in(0,1)$. It has been proved that the JL lemma is optimal for the general case, therefore, improvements can only be explored for special cases. This work aims to improve the $ε^{-2}$ dependency based on techniques inspired by the Hutch++ Algorithm, which reduces $ε^{-2}$ to $ε^{-1}$ for the related problem of implicit matrix trace estimation. We first present an algorithm to estimate the Euclidean lengths of the rows of a matrix. We prove for it element-wise probabilistic bounds that are at least as good as standard JL approximations in the worst-case, but are asymptotically better for matrices with decaying spectrum. Moreover, for any matrix, regardless of its spectrum, the algorithm achieves $ε$-accuracy for the total, Frobenius norm-wise relative error using only $O(ε^{-1})$ queries. This is a quadratic improvement over the norm-wise error of standard JL approximations. We also show how these results can be extended to estimate (i) the Euclidean distances between data points and (ii) the statistical leverage scores of tall-and-skinny data matrices, which are ubiquitous for many applications, with analogous theoretical improvements. Proof-of-concept numerical experiments are presented to validate the theoretical analysis.

description: ‘Smart security’ is currently being used as an umbrella term that embraces several initiatives proposed by the aviation industry in order to enhance security procedures at airports. The idea of smarter security opposes the traditional screening framework of passenger security at airports which enacts a one-size-fits-all approach in order to detect dangerous items that might threaten flight safety and security. Recently however, the security industry claims that smart solutions could provide better security, less intrusive screening, and better cost efficiency by employing tailored security procedures based on individual data-driven risk assessment of passengers and corresponding different levels of security screening. As smart security solutions are currently still under development, this report analyses potential human rights problems connected to a broader implementation of smart security routines in a timely fashion. Constituent elements of smart security, such as computer-based sorting of individuals into risk-groups and algorithms preparing or taking decisions on passengers’ mobility, can have severe consequences. Critical questions to be asked include: Who is accountable for smart security decisions? Is it possible to appeal against such decisions? How dangerous is the data-driven approach with regard to structural discrimination and equality of all passengers? We review and summarise the state of the art in the field of data-driven risk analysis and analyse eight interviews that we have conducted with representatives of European aviation associations, state authorities and the civil society. Bearing in mind the human rights implications of smart security, the report identifies six central policy gaps, issues recommendations to address them and provides a basis for a much needed public debate on smart security.

The Effect of Natural Fermentation on Some Antinutritional Factors, Minerals, Proximate Composition and Sensory Characteristics in Sorghum Based Weaning Food
Creators: name: Kassa, Mihiret
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2009

description: The effect of natural fermentation of two sorghum cultivars on antinutritional factors (tannin and phytate), minerals (Ca, Fe, Zn and P), proximate analysis and sensory characteristics were investigated. Flours from both cultivars were fermented at room temperature (20- 230 C) for 0, 12, 24, 36 and 48h at a concentration of 1:3 dilutions (w/v). TTA and pH were determined immediately at the end of each fermentation period and the samples were dried at 70o C in air oven drier for 36h. Fermentation caused an increase in the protein, TTA, energy content and improved mineral bioavailability and decrease in fat, carbohydrate, ash, crude fiber, viscosity, antinutritional factors, phytate: mineral molar ratios and pH of sorghum flour. The bioavailability of zinc (phytate: zinc molar ratio <15) after 24-48h fermentation of Gobiye cultivar was found to meet the critical limit. The bioavailability of calcium and iron was below the critical limit in all the samples analyzed; phytate: calcium molar ratio >0.24 and phytate: Fe molar ratio > 0.15. However calcium had no effect on the absorption of zinc ([Calcium x Phytate]: [Zinc] <0.5 millimolar).When the samples were subjected to sensory evaluation, there was no significant difference (p<0.05) in the appearance and aroma of the unfermented and gruel samples fermentation for 12h. The panelists however noted that appearance, aroma, texture, taste and overall acceptability of the gruel prepared from sorghum flour that was subjected to 48h fermentation differ from others and least acceptable. Taste and overall acceptability decreased significantly (p<0.05) along with period of fermentation. Ethiopian weaning mothers should be encouraged to prepare 12 to 24h fermented sorghum based weaning gruels that may blend with either legumes or milk powder by adding some amount of sugar. Further research on cereal based fermented weaning foods needs to be conducted in Ethiopia. Researchers should also take into consideration the incorporation of phytase enzymes into cereal plants to enhance the nutritional value in addition to yield improvement by the application of biotechnology.
Complex prosodic focus marking in Finnish: Expanding the data landscape
Creators: Arnhold, Anja
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2016

By investigating prosody beyond pitch and duration, this article provides a detailed and multifaceted picture of focus marking in a language that differs substantially from more extensively studied languages like English. A production study examined prosodic focus marking in Finnish based on acoustic analyses of 947 short SVO sentences spoken by 17 native speakers. The results indicated effects of information structure on ﬁve acoustic measures: f0, duration, intensity, the use of pauses and non-modal voice quality. Words in narrow focus had a larger f0 range, longer duration, larger intensity range and were followed by pauses more often than words in other information structural conditions. Conversely, contextually given words showed a smaller f0 range, shorter duration, and, in post-focal condition, lower intensity. Moreover, realisations with non-modal voice quality were more frequent for all syllables of post-focal given words compared to the broad focus condition, whereas for words in narrow focus, non-modal realisations were more frequent only on the last syllable. Observing these effects in parallel, the ﬁndings exceeded previous studies in scope, providing encouragement for a broader approach to the investigation of prosodic focus marking.

description: Least-privilege separation decomposes applications into compartments limited to accessing only what they need. When compartmentalizing existing software, many approaches neglect securing the new inter-compartment interfaces, although what used to be a function call from/to a trusted component is now potentially a targeted attack from a malicious compartment. This results in an entire class of security bugs: Compartment Interface Vulnerabilities (CIVs). This paper provides an in-depth study of CIVs. We taxonomize these issues and show that they affect all known compartmentalization approaches. We propose ConfFuzz, an in-memory fuzzer specialized to detect CIVs at possible compartment boundaries. We apply ConfFuzz to a set of 25 popular applications and 36 possible compartment APIs, to uncover a wide data-set of 629 vulnerabilities. We systematically study these issues, and extract numerous insights on the prevalence of CIVs, their causes, impact, and the complexity to address them. We stress the critical importance of CIVs in compartmentalization approaches, demonstrating an attack to extract isolated keys in OpenSSL and uncovering a decade-old vulnerability in sudo. We show, among others, that not all interfaces are affected in the same way, that API size is uncorrelated with CIV prevalence, and that addressing interface vulnerabilities goes beyond writing simple checks. We conclude the paper with guidelines for CIV-aware compartment interface design, and appeal for more research towards systematic CIV detection and mitigation.
