description: Bangladeshi Sign Language (BdSL) is a commonly used medium of communication for the hearing-impaired people in Bangladesh. Developing a real time system to detect these signs from images is a great challenge. In this paper, we present a technique to detect BdSL from images that performs in real time. Our method uses Convolutional Neural Network based object detection technique to detect the presence of signs in the image region and to recognize its class. For this purpose, we adopted Faster Region-based Convolutional Network approach and developed a dataset $-$ BdSLImset $-$ to train our system. Previous research works in detecting BdSL generally depend on external devices while most of the other vision-based techniques do not perform efficiently in real time. Our approach, however, is free from such limitations and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method successfully identifies and recognizes Bangladeshi signs in real time.

description: Despite significant recent progress in the area of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), there are numerous shortcomings associated with collecting Electroencephalography (EEG) signals in real-world environments. These include, but are not limited to, subject and session data variance, long and arduous calibration processes and predictive generalisation issues across different subjects or sessions. This implies that many downstream applications, including Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) based classification systems, can suffer from a shortage of reliable data. Generating meaningful and realistic synthetic data can therefore be of significant value in circumventing this problem. We explore the use of modern neural-based generative models trained on a limited quantity of EEG data collected from different subjects to generate supplementary synthetic EEG signal vectors, subsequently utilised to train an SSVEP classifier. Extensive experimental analysis demonstrates the efficacy of our generated data, leading to improvements across a variety of evaluations, with the crucial task of cross-subject generalisation improving by over 35% with the use of such synthetic data.

Search for heavy charged long-lived particles in the ATLAS detector in 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV

description: A search for heavy charged long-lived particles is performed using a data sample of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is based on observables related to ionization energy loss and time of flight, which are sensitive to the velocity of heavy charged particles traveling significantly slower than the speed of light. Multiple search strategies for a wide range of lifetimes, corresponding to path lengths of a few meters, are defined as model-independently as possible, by referencing several representative physics cases that yield long-lived particles within supersymmetric models, such as gluinos/squarks ($R$-hadrons), charginos and staus. No significant deviations from the expected Standard Model background are observed. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are provided on the production cross sections of long-lived $R$-hadrons as well as directly pair-produced staus and charginos. These results translate into lower limits on the masses of long-lived gluino, sbottom and stop $R$-hadrons, as well as staus and charginos of 2000 GeV, 1250 GeV, 1340 GeV, 430 GeV and 1090 GeV, respectively.

description: Dyes are significant contributors to the chemical oxygen demand of the wastewater produced by textile industries. In the current study, naturally occurring, inexpensive, non-hazardous clay was pillared and used to remove Acid Green 25 dye (AG) from aqueous solutions. The pseudo-second-order model provided a better fit to describe the adsorption kinetics data for AG, with a rate constant of 9.82 × 10−3 g/mg min. Langmuir isotherm provided a better fit for describing the adsorption isotherm of the AG dye. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that adsorption was exothermic with an enthalpy change of −48 kJ/mol. The effects of pH, adsorbent dosage, and initial concentration of AG dye on adsorption capacity were analyzed, and an empirical model was developed using the response surface methodology approach. Optimization studies revealed that a maximum adsorption capacity of 105.15 mg/g for the AG dye could be achieved at a pH of 2, an adsorbent dosage of 1.5 g/L and an initial dye concentration at its upper limit of 200 mg/L. The adsorbent could be regenerated and reused up to three adsorption cycles, and the desorbed dye and treated water may be reused in the dyeing process, thereby making the entire operation circular. Circularity reduces the cost of production and makes the process more sustainable. Mechanistic insights revealed that electrostatic interaction was the driving force for the adsorption of AG dye. In this work, it has been demonstrated that after pillaring, clay-based material may be used as an effective adsorbent for treating dye-containing wastewater.

description: In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (S.pombe), heterochromatin domains are established and maintained by protein complexes that contain numerous RNA binding domains among their components. The fission yeast HP1 protein Swi6 is one such component and contains an unstructured RNA-binding hinge, which is important for the integrity and silencing of heterochromatin. In this study, we have used an RNA aptamer that likely binds to the Swi6 hinge with high affinity, as a tool to perturb the natural interactions mediated by this domain. When the hinge is blocked by the aptamer RNA, Swi6 appears to become less restricted to the pericentromeres and is enriched at specific euchromatic loci. This suggests a role for the Swi6 hinge, along with the chromoshadow domain (previously shown) in controlling the spread of heterochromatin in S.pombe. The study also highlights the potential of using a synthetic aptamer RNA as a tool to perturb nucleic acid – protein interaction in vivo with the objective of understanding the functional relevance of such an interaction.

description: An analytic expression for the scalar quasinormal modes of the generic, spinning Kerr-$\mathrm{AdS_5}$ black holes was previously proposed by the authors in ref. 1, in terms of transcendental equations involving the Painlevé VI (PVI) $τ$ function. In this work, we carry out a numerical investigation of the modes for generic rotation parameters, comparing implementations of expansions for the PVI $τ$ function both in terms of conformal blocks (Nekrasov functions) and Fredholm determinants. We compare the results with standard numerical methods for the subcase of Schwarzschild black holes. We then derive asymptotic formulas for the angular eigenvalues and the quasinormal modes in the small black hole limit for generic scalar mass and discuss, both numerically and analytically, the appearance of superradiant modes.

description: Augmented Reality (AR) systems describe the class of systems that use computers to overlay virtual information on the real world. AR environments allow the development of promising tools in several application domains. In medical training and simulation the learning potential of AR is significantly amplified by the capability of the system to present 3D medical models in real-time at remote locations. Furthermore the simulation applicability is broadened by the use of real-time deformable medical models. This work presents a distributed medical training prototype designed to train medical practitioners' hand-eye coordination when performing endotracheal intubations. The system we present accomplishes this task with the help of AR paradigms. An extension of this prototype to medical simulations by employing deformable medical models is possible. The shared state maintenance of the collaborative AR environment is assured through a novel adaptive synchronization algorithm (ASA) that increases the sense of presence among participants and facilitates their interactivity in spite of infrastructure delays. The system will allow paramedics, pre-hospital personnel, and students to practice their skills without touching a real patient and will provide them with the visual feedback they could not otherwise obtain. Such a distributed AR training tool has the potential to: allow an instructor to simultaneously train local and remotely located students and, allow students to actually "see" the internal anatomy and therefore better understand their actions on a human patient simulator (HPS).

FLECS: Planning with a Flexible Commitment Strategy

Subjects: subject: Artificial Intelligence (cs.AI)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: There has been evidence that least-commitment planners can efficiently handle planning problems that involve difficult goal interactions. This evidence has led to the common belief that delayed-commitment is the "best" possible planning strategy. However, we recently found evidence that eager-commitment planners can handle a variety of planning problems more efficiently, in particular those with difficult operator choices. Resigned to the futility of trying to find a universally successful planning strategy, we devised a planner that can be used to study which domains and problems are best for which planning strategies. In this article we introduce this new planning algorithm, FLECS, which uses a FLExible Commitment Strategy with respect to plan-step orderings. It is able to use any strategy from delayed-commitment to eager-commitment. The combination of delayed and eager operator-ordering commitments allows FLECS to take advantage of the benefits of explicitly using a simulated execution state and reasoning about planning constraints. FLECS can vary its commitment strategy across different problems and domains, and also during the course of a single planning problem. FLECS represents a novel contribution to planning in that it explicitly provides the choice of which commitment strategy to use while planning. FLECS provides a framework to investigate the mapping from planning domains and problems to efficient planning strategies.

description: Next generation low-background experiments require a detailed understanding of all possible radiation backgrounds. One important radiation source are muon-induced neutrons. Their production processes are up to now not fully understood. New measurements with MINIDEX (Muon-Induced Neutron Indirect Detection EXperiment) of the production of neutrons by cosmogenic muons in high-Z materials are reported. The setup is located at the T{ü}bingen Shallow Underground Laboratory, which provides a vertical shielding depth of (13.2\,$\pm$\,0.8) meter water equivalent at the setup location. Muon-induced neutrons are identified by the detection of 2.2\,MeV gammas from their capture on hydrogen with high-purity germanium detectors. The experimental results were compared to Geant4 Monte Carlo predictions. The measured rate of 2.2\,MeV neutron capture gammas for lead was found to be in good agreement with the Geant4 predicted rate. For copper the measured rate was found to be a factor of 0.72\,$\pm$\,0.14 lower than the Geant4 predicted rate. An additional simulation was performed using the FLUKA Monte Carlo code. The FLUKA predicted rate of detected 2.2\,MeV neutron capture gammas for lead was also found to be in good agreement with the experimental value. A detailed comparison of muon interactions and neutron production in lead for Geant4 and FLUKA revealed large discrepancies in the description of photo-nuclear and muon-nuclear inelastic scattering reactions for muon energies at shallow underground sites. These results suggest that Geant4, when used with Geant4 recommended or standard physics lists, underpredicts the neutron production in photo-nuclear inelastic scattering reactions while at the same time it overpredicts the neutron production in muon-nuclear inelastic scattering reactions.

description: We considered the Blom’s transformation, a statistical method aimed to normalise and standardise food intakes before principal component analysis. A simulation study was performed to evaluate the eigenvalue distribution of a correlation matrix under common conditions in food questionnaire analysis. The scree plot visual inspection and the Guttman–Kaiser (GK) criterion were compared to Horn’s parallel analysis to evaluate their efficacy in food pattern identification. The scree plot results as a monotone continuous series when no food patterns are present. In this situation, about 50% of the eigenvalues assume a value higher than one, showing a first fallacy of the GK. When three food patterns are simulated a clear discontinuity appears after the third eigenvalue, showing that the scree-plot visual inspection is a suitable method to identify food patterns. Finally, according to the present work it appears that the GK generates a number of false-positive food patterns.

description: Rutin and flavonoids derived from Sophora japonica hold significant potential for various bioactivities. The objective of this study is to improve the ultrasonic-assisted extraction procedure for obtaining rutin and total flavonoids from Sophora japonica. Moreover, the purification of these total flavonoids from the ethanol extract was accomplished using macroporous resins. Under optimal conditions, the extraction efficiency of rutin and total flavonoids were 32.49% and 48.40%, respectively. Out of the 11 macroporous resins tested for purification, the results indicated that DAX-8 and ADS-7 were the two most efficient resins. Under meticulously optimized purification conditions, the highest flavonoid content attained in the final product was 93.13% for DAX-8 and 92.20% for ADS-7, respectively. Based on the findings, the extraction and purification technique explored in this research provides a solid basis for improving industrial procedures related to extracting and purifying flavonoids from Sophora japonica.

description: A classical question in systems biology is to find a Boolean model which is able to predict the observed responses of a signaling network. It has been previously shown that such models can be tailored based on experimental data. While fitting a minimum-size network to the experimentally observed data is a natural assumption, it can potentially result in a network which is not so robust against the noises in the training dataset. Indeed, it is widely accepted now that biological systems are generally evolved to be very robust. Therefore, in the present work, we extended the classical formulation of Boolean network construction in order to put weight on the robustness of the created network. We show that our method results generally in more relevant networks. Consequently, considering robustness as a design principle of biological networks can result in more realistic models.

description: Quantum chaotic kicked top model is implemented experimentally in a two qubit system comprising of a pair of spin-1/2 nuclei using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance techniques. The essential nonlinear interaction was realized using indirect spin-spin coupling, while the linear kicks were realized using RF pulses. After a variable number of kicks, quantum state tomography was employed to reconstruct the single-qubit density matrices using which we could extract various measures such as von Neumann entropies, Husimi distributions, and Lyapunov exponents. These measures enabled the study of correspondence with classical phase space as well as to probe distinct features of quantum chaos, such as symmetries and temporal periodicity in the two-qubit kicked top.

description: In this study, assuming the Type-Y (flipped) 2HDM at the SM-like scenario as the theoretical framework, observability of the additional heavy neutral Higgs bosons $H$ and $A$ is investigated through the signal process chain $e^- e^+ \rightarrow AH \rightarrow b\bar{b}b\bar{b}$ at a linear collider operating at the center-of-mass energy of 1.5 TeV. The assumed signal process is highly motivated by the enhancements in the $A/H\rightarrow b\bar{b}$ decays at relatively high $\tb$ values. Such enhancements result in the dominance of the mentioned decay modes even for Higgs masses above the threshold of the on-shell top quark pair production. Taking advantage of such a unique feature, several benchmark scenarios are studied. Simulating the detector response based on the SiD detector at the ILC, simulated events are analyzed to reconstruct the $H$ and $A$ Higgs bosons. The top quark pair production and $Z/γ$ production are the main SM background processes and are well under control. Results indicate that, the $H$ and $A$ Higgs bosons are observable with signals exceeding $5σ$ with possibility of mass measurement in all the tested scenarios. Specifically, the parameter space region enclosed with the mass ranges $m_H$=150-500 GeV and $m_A$=230-580 GeV with the $A/H$ mass splitting of 80 GeV is observable at the integrated luminosity of 500 $fb^{-1}$.

description: We discuss the phase coherence properties of a mesoscopic normal ring coupled to an electric environment via Coulomb interactions. This system can be mapped onto the Caldeira-Leggett model with a flux dependent tunneling amplitude. We show that depending on the strength of the coupling between the ring and the environment the free energy can be obtained either by a Bethe ansatz approch (for weak coupling) or by using a perturbative expression which we derive here (in the case of strong coupling). We demonstrate that the zero-point fluctuations of the environment can strongly suppress the persistent current of the ring below its value in the absence of the environment. This is an indication that the equilibrium fluctuations in the environment disturb the coherence of the wave functions in the ring. Moreover the influence of quantum fluctuations can induce symmetry breaking seen in the polarization of the ring and in the flux induced capacitance.

description: We investigate the dynamics of spin in the axially anisotropic Landau--Lifshitz field theory with a magnetic domain wall initial condition. Employing the analytic scattering technique, we obtain the exact scattering data and reconstruct the time-evolved profile. We identify three qualitatively distinct regimes of spin transport, ranging from ballistic expansion in the easy-plane regime, absence of transport in the easy-axis regime and log-modified diffusion for the isotropic interaction. Our results are in perfect qualitative agreement with those found in the anisotropic quantum Heisenberg spin-$1/2$ chain, indicating a remarkable classical-quantum correspondence for macroscopic spin transport.

description: Transport properties of metallic single-wall nanotubes are examined based on the Luttinger liquid theory. Focusing on a nanotube transistor setup, the linear conductance is computed from the Kubo formula using perturbation theory in the lead-tube tunnel conductances. For sufficiently long nanotubes and high temperature, phonon backscattering should lead to an anomalous temperature dependence of the resistivity.

description: The universality class of the avalanche behavior in plastically deforming crystalline and amorphous systems has been commonly discussed, despite the fact that the microscopic defect character in each of these systems is different. In contrast to amorphous systems, crystalline flow stress increases dramatically at high strains and/or loading rates. We perform simulations of a two-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics model that minimally captures the phenomenology of nanocrystalline deformation. In the context of this model, we demonstrate that a classic rate-dependence of dislocation plasticity at large rates (> 1000/s), fundamentally controls the system's statistical character as it competes with dislocation nucleation: At large rates, the behavior is statistically dominated by long-range correlations of "dragged" mobile dislocations. At small rates, plasticity localization dominates in small volumes and a spatial integration of avalanche behaviors takes place.

description: This study compared soil respiration (SR) fluxes from winter wheat-based cropping systems in the US Southern Great Plains (SGP) under reduced and conventional tillage. The study consisted of four sets of paired paddocks assigned to conventional or reduced tillage with a four-year crop rotation applied over time. During the 2016–2017 study year, four sets of paired paddocks were planted to: winter wheat managed for grazing, dual-purpose (grazing and grain production), and grain-only systems of production, and winter canola. Heterotrophic SR fluxes were measured using a plant and root exclusion method on eight permanently deployed PVC cores per paddock. Fluxes from the cores were measured manually using a closed chamber connected to an infrared gas analyser on 12–13 dates during the winter wheat growing season (October through May). There were strong seasonal patterns of SR flux, with lower rates during dry and cold periods, and higher rates during warm and wet periods. Large rainfall induced pulses of SR flux were observed for both tillage systems. There was no consistent large-scale difference in SR flux between tillage treatments applied to paired paddocks. Results from this study indicate SR fluxes from winter wheat-based cropping systems are controlled more by soil environmental conditions than form of tillage.

Induction of First-Order Decision Lists: Results on Learning the Past Tense of English Verbs

Subjects: subject: Artificial Intelligence (cs.AI)

description: This paper presents a method for inducing logic programs from examples that learns a new class of concepts called first-order decision lists, defined as ordered lists of clauses each ending in a cut. The method, called FOIDL, is based on FOIL (Quinlan, 1990) but employs intensional background knowledge and avoids the need for explicit negative examples. It is particularly useful for problems that involve rules with specific exceptions, such as learning the past-tense of English verbs, a task widely studied in the context of the symbolic/connectionist debate. FOIDL is able to learn concise, accurate programs for this problem from significantly fewer examples than previous methods (both connectionist and symbolic).

Formation of Extremely Low-mass White Dwarfs in Double Degenerates

description: Extremely low-mass white dwarfs (ELM WDs) are helium WDs with a mass less than $\sim$$0.3\rm\;M_\odot$. Most ELM WDs are found in double degenerates (DDs) in the ELM Survey led by Brown and Kilic. These systems are supposed to be significant gravitational-wave sources in the mHz frequency. In this paper, we firstly analyzed the observational characteristics of ELM WDs and found that there are two distinct groups in the ELM WD mass and orbital period plane, indicating two different formation scenarios of such objects, i.e. a stable Roche lobe overflow channel (RL channel) and common envelope ejection channel (CE channel). We then systematically investigated the formation of ELM WDs in DDs by a combination of detailed binary evolution calculation and binary population synthesis. Our study shows that the majority of ELM WDs with mass less than $0.22\rm\;M_\odot$ are formed from the RL channel. The most common progenitor mass in this way is in the range of $1.15-1.45\rm\;M_\odot$ and the resulting ELM WDs have a peak around $0.18\rm\;M_\odot$ when selection effects are taken into account, consistent with observations. The ELM WDs with a mass larger than $0.22\rm\;M_\odot$ are more likely to be from the CE channel and have a peak of ELM WD mass around $0.25\rm\;M_\odot$ which needs to be confirmed by future observations. By assuming a constant star formation rate of 2$\rm\;M_\odot yr^{-1}$ for a Milky Way-like galaxy, the birth rate and local density are $5\times10^{-4}\rm\;yr^{-1}$ and $1500\rm\;kpc^{-3}$, respectively, for DDs with an ELM WD mass less than $0.25\rm\;M_\odot$.

description: Learning from near misses is an important component of maintaining safe work systems. Within safety science it is widely accepted that a systems approach is the most appropriate for analysing incidents in sociotechnical systems. The aim of this article is to determine whether industry-level near miss reporting systems are consistent with systems thinking. Twenty systems were identified, from a range of work domains, and were evaluated against systems thinking-based criteria. While none of the reporting systems fulfilled the full set of criteria, all are able to identify actors and contributing factors proximal to events in sociotechnical systems and many capture information on how accidents were prevented. It is concluded that the explanatory power of near miss reporting systems is limited by the systems currently used to gather data. The article closes by outlining a research agenda designed to ensure that near miss reporting systems can fully align with the systems approach.

description: We derive bounds on Higgs and gauge--boson anomalous interactions using the LEP2 data on the production of three photons and photon pairs in association with hadrons. In the framework of $SU(2)_L \otimes U(1)_Y$ effective Lagrangians, we examine all dimension--six operators that lead to anomalous Higgs interactions involving $γ$ and $Z$. The search for Higgs boson decaying to $γγ$ pairs allow us to obtain constrains on these anomalous couplings that are comparable with the ones originating from the analyses of $p\bar{p}$ collisions at the Tevatron. Our results also show that if the coefficients of all ``blind'' operators are assumed to have same magnitude, the indirect constraints on the anomalous couplings obtained from this analyses, for Higgs masses $M_H \lesssim$ 140 GeV, are more restrictive than the ones coming from the $W^+W^-$ production.

description: We present an analytic construction of complete non-compact 8-dimensional Ricci-flat manifolds with holonomy Spin(7). The construction relies on the study of the adiabatic limit of metrics with holonomy Spin(7) on principal Seifert circle bundles over asymptotically conical G2 orbifolds. The metrics we produce have an asymptotic geometry, so-called ALC geometry, that generalises to higher dimensions the geometry of 4-dimensional ALF hyperkähler metrics. We apply our construction to asymptotically conical G2 metrics arising from self-dual Einstein 4-orbifolds with positive scalar curvature. As illustrative examples of the power of our construction, we produce complete non-compact Spin(7) manifolds with arbitrarily large second Betti number and infinitely many distinct families of ALC Spin(7) metrics on the same smooth 8-manifold.
