description: Self-supervised graph representation learning (SSGRL) is a representation learning paradigm used to reduce or avoid manual labeling. An essential part of SSGRL is graph data augmentation. Existing methods usually rely on heuristics commonly identified through trial and error and are effective only within some application domains. Also, it is not clear why one heuristic is better than another. Moreover, recent studies have argued against some techniques (e.g., dropout: that can change the properties of molecular graphs or destroy relevant signals for graph-based document classification tasks).
 In this study, we propose a novel data-driven SSGRL approach that automatically learns a suitable graph augmentation from the signal encoded in the graph (i.e., the nodes' predictive feature and topological information). We propose two complementary approaches that produce learnable feature and topological augmentations. The former learns multi-view augmentation of node features, and the latter learns a high-order view of the topology. Moreover, the augmentations are jointly learned with the representation. Our approach is general that it can be applied to homogeneous and heterogeneous graphs. We perform extensive experiments on node classification (using nine homogeneous and heterogeneous datasets) and graph property prediction (using another eight datasets). The results show that the proposed method matches or outperforms the SOTA SSGRL baselines and performs similarly to semi-supervised methods.

description: In the dynamic expanse of the Roman Empire, the practice of religious beliefs and rituals played a pivotal role in adapting to the shifting tides of time. Various scholars have emphasized the integral role of religion in shaping individual roles within evolving societies. They have also highlighted how the incorporation of local communities into the broader empire led to a metamorphosis in their religious practices. This transformation extended beyond a mere amalgamation of beliefs, instead involving the adoption of a novel religious framework that enabled these communities to secure their place within a global context. This phenomenon is equally evident in Roman Macedonia, situated at the heart of the erstwhile formidable Macedonian kingdom, encompassing vast territories from the Adriatic shore to the west to the alluvial expanses of Aegean Thrace in the east. This presentation aims to provide a comprehensive survey of the religious landscape found within the cities of Macedonia. Drawing extensively from archaeological evidence, the study investigates a series of illustrative examples. It delves into the resilience displayed by old religious structures in the face of evolving eras, while also scrutinizing the emergence and construction of new architectural forms and layouts. By examining these transformations, the paper endeavors to elucidate the extent to which these architectural shifts contributed to the remolding of religious expression. By dissecting the interplay between tradition, innovation, and urban dynamics, this presentation hopes to contribute to a deeper comprehension of the religious tapestry that wove through the cities of Roman Macedonia. The paper aims to uncover the fusion of established customs with novel practices, underscoring the region's adaptability to evolving religious paradigms within the context of a globally expanding empire.

description: Subsurface drip irrigation and associated mandatory minimum tillage practices significantly reduced the incidence of lettuce drop (Sclerotinia minor) and the severity of corky root on lettuce compared with furrow irrigation and conventional tillage. Three possible mechanisms for the drip irrigation-mediated disease suppression were examined in this study: qualitative and quantitative differences in the soil microflora under furrow and subsurface drip irrigation; their antagonism and potential bio-control effects on S. minor; and the physical distribution of soil moisture and temperature relative to the two irrigation methods. To determine if the suppressive effects under subsurface drip irrigation were related to changes in soil microflora, soils were assayed for actinomycetes, bacteria, and fungi during the spring and fall seasons. The effects of the irrigation methods on microbial populations were nearly identical during both seasons. In the spring season, the total number of fungal colonies recovered on potato dextrose agar amended with rose Bengal generally was greater in soils under drip irrigation than under furrow irrigation, but no such differences were observed during the fall. Numbers of actinomycetes and bacteria were not significantly different between irrigation methods during either season. No interaction between sampling time and irrigation methods was observed for any of the microbial populations during both seasons. Thus, the significant effect of sampling time observed for actinomycete and bacterial populations during the spring was most likely not caused by the irrigation treatments. There were also no qualitative differences in the three groups of soil microflora between the irrigation treatments. Even though some fungal, actinomycete, and bacterial isolates suppressed mycelial growth of S. minor in in vitro assays, the isolates came from both subsurface drip- and furrow-irrigated soils. In in planta assays, selected isolates failed to reduce the incidence of drop in lettuce plants. The soil moisture under subsurface drip irrigation was significantly lower at all depths and distances from the bed center after an irrigation event than under furrow irrigation. The soil temperature, in contrast, was significantly higher at both 5 and 15 cm depths under drip irrigation than under furrow irrigation. The suppression of lettuce drop under subsurface drip irrigation compared with furrow irrigation is attributed to differential moisture and temperature effects rather than to changes in the soil microflora or their inhibitory effects on S. minor.

description: Scleroplax Rathbun, 1893
Type species. Scleroplax granulata Rathbun, 1893, by original designation and monotypy. Gender feminine.
Hosts. Crustacea, Decapoda (Callianassidae and Upogebidae); Echiurida (Urechidae). In burrows.
Distribution. Pacific Ocean coast, Canada to northern México.
Diagnosis. Carapace hard, subheptagonal, highly convex dorsally, anterolateral margins not forming angle with posterolateral margins; MXP3 slightly oblique, covers buccal cavity, ischio-merus subtrapezoidal, propodus extending to end of dactylus, both spoon-shaped and larger than carpus. WL1-4 of similar shape, third pair slightly longer, fourth not noticeably reduced.
Taxonomic remarks. The revised diagnosis allows the separation of Scleroplax from all the known genera in the Pinnixa complex. Diagnostic features of Scleroplax include the carapace and MXP3. In contrast to Scleroplax, in Pinnixa sensu stricto, the dactylus always protrudes beyond the distal tip of the shorter propodus. This feature is also observed in the genera Indopinnixa Manning & Morton, 1987, and Austinixa Heard & Manning, 1997. The shape and insertion point of the articles of MXP 3 in Glassella Campos & Wicksten, 1997, and Tetrias Rathbun, 1898, are so different from Scleroplax that misidentification is unlikely (Fig, 2C, E–F). Members of the Pinnixa complex can also be separated from Scleroplax by their relatively flat carapace that is noticeably wider than long, with WL3 clearly longest and the thin WL4 the shortest.
An analysis of Rathbun (1918), Tesch (1918), Shen (1932), Glassell (1938), Garth, (1960), Righi (1967), Fenucci (1975). Manning & Morton (1987), Manning & Felder (1989), Zmarzly (1992), Campos & Wicksten (1997), Heard & Manning (1997), Campos et al. (1998) and Martins & D’Incao (1998) accounts and the study of voucher material listed in Table 1 revealed that the genera Austinixa, Glassella, Indopinnixa, Pinnixa, Scleroplax, and Tetrias should be considered a presumed homogeneous group. All these taxa share at least two inclusive characters, including a distinct carapace that is wider than long and a conspicuous lobe on the outer margin of the basal segment on the exopod of the third maxilliped (Fig 1 C –D, 2 A–F). These novelties distinguish these genera within the Pinnotheridae and may represent a separate monophyletic assemblage. Alarconia Glassell, 1938 (see Campos & Wicksten 1997) and the South Pacific genus Pinnotherelia Milne Edwards & Lucas, 1843, should not be considered members of this group despite sharing a carapace that is also wider than long. Both genera lack the exopod lobe of MXP3. The systematics of these genera will be discussed elsewhere.

description: This study explores the barriers to accessing basic education among the poor, economically exploited and underprivileged children in Jimeta Outskirt, Yola North LGA of Adamawa State. The primary objectives of this study are to identify the factors limiting access to education, the availability and effectiveness of government policies that are aimed at addressing these barriers. The findings reveal that socioeconomic factors, including widespread poverty, cultural beliefs, and inadequate infrastructure, significantly hinder children’s ability to attend school. Furthermore, the study highlights the gap between the intent of government initiatives, such as the Universal Basic Education (UBE) Act, and their actual implementation, particularly in underserved communities. Challenges such as insufficient funding, lack of educational resources, and neglect of remote areas reduce the effectiveness of these policies. The findings underscore the need for comprehensive community-based interventions, improved policy execution, and enhanced resource allocation to bridge the educational gap. Addressing these barriers is critical for ensuring that all children, regardless of their socioeconomic background, have access to quality basic education

description: Sample preparation of complex, natural mixtures such as lignin prior to mass spectrometry analysis, however minimal, is a critical step in ensuring accurate and interference-free results. Modern shotgun-MS techniques, where samples are directly injected into a high-resolution mass spectrometer (HRMS) with no prior separation, usually still require basic sample pretreatment such as filtration and appropriate solvents for full dissolution and compatibility with atmospheric pressure ionization interfaces. In this study, sample preparation protocols have been established for a unique sample set consisting of a wide variety of degraded lignin samples from numerous sources and treatment processes. The samples were analyzed via electrospray (ESI)-HRMS in negative and positive ionization modes. The resulting information-rich HRMS datasets were then transformed into the mass defect space with custom R scripts as well as the open-source Constellation software as an effective way to visualize changes between the samples due to the sample preparation and ionization conditions as well as a starting point for comprehensive characterization of these varied sample sets. Optimized conditions for the four investigated lignins are proposed for ESI-HRMS analysis for the first time, giving an excellent starting point for future studies seeking to better characterize and understand these complex mixtures.

description: How can evidence—systematically generated substantive knowledge—be used to reach policy outcomes that promote gender equity? Initial hypothetical answers to this question are derived from three distinct theories of the policy process: the Rational Policy Cycle (RPC), the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF), and the Multiple Streams Approach (MSA). With the help of these theoretical frameworks, we trace the use of evidence in four case studies in the fields of family and tax policy in Swiss Cantons. These empirical studies reveal that, within a policy process which follows the Rational Policy Cycle, evidence documenting existing deficits and studies indicating the efficiency of proposed measures are crucial for a progressive outcome. Attempts to promote policies that enhance gender equity by linking them to dominant topics like economic competitiveness are not successful as long as no strong evidence is provided and such a linkage can also be used for promoting policies that undermine gender equity. Finally, in a battle between rival advocacy coalitions, evidence that indicates the correspondence between a proposed policy and constitutional norms seems to be most powerful.

description: During sporting events, injured athletes often return to competition after icing because of the reduction in pain. Although some controversy exists, several studies suggest that cryotherapy causes a decrease in muscle activity, which may lead to a higher risk of injury upon return to play. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a 20-min knee joint cryotherapy application on the electromyographic activity of leg muscles during a single-leg drop jump in twenty healthy subjects, randomly assigned to an experimental and a control group. After the pre-tests, a crushed-ice bag was applied to the knee joint of the experimental group subjects for 20 min, while the control group subjects rested for 20 min. All subjects were retested immediately after this period and retested again after another 20 min of rest. Average electromyographic activity and ground contact time were calculated for the pre- and post-test sessions. Decreases in electromyographic activity of the lower extremity musculature were found in pre-activation, eccentric (braking), and concentric (push-off) phases immediately after the icing, and after 20 min of rest. The results lend support to the suggestion that cryotherapy during sporting events may place the individuals in a vulnerable position.

The Risk Management Working Group focused on identifying key risks involved in opening cultural heritage collections online, and developing actionable strategies to address these challenges. The group aimed to encourage institutions to move from cautious, risk-averse approaches to adopting open norms, fostering a culture of openness within the GLAM community and beyond. These efforts are particularly important for under-resourced and under-represented institutions, which are a priority for the CC Open Culture Platform in its mission to promote global diversity in open access collections.

The main activity of our Working Group was the development of the Risk Management Toolkit, designed to map and address the complexities of risk management in open access collections and initiatives. To inform the toolkit, the group adopted a multifaceted approach, conducting a literature review, carrying out an online survey, and compiling a list of use cases documenting various risk scenarios. These activities contributed to both the toolkit and this final report, ensuring a comprehensive strategy to support cultural heritage institutions and initiatives in their transition to openness.

description: Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) of lignocellulosic feedstocks to platform chemicals requires complex metabolic processes, which are commonly executed by single genetically engineered microorganisms. Alternatively, synthetic consortia can be employed to compartmentalize the required metabolic functions among different specialized microorganisms as demonstrated in this work for the direct production of lactic acid from lignocellulosic biomass. We composed an artificial cross‐kingdom consortium and co‐cultivated the aerobic fungus Trichoderma reesei for the secretion of cellulolytic enzymes with facultative anaerobic lactic acid bacteria. We engineered ecological niches to enable the formation of a spatially structured biofilm. Up to 34.7 gL−1 lactic acid could be produced from 5% (w/w) microcrystalline cellulose. Challenges in converting pretreated lignocellulosic biomass include the presence of inhibitors, the formation of acetic acid and carbon catabolite repression. In the CBP consortium hexoses and pentoses were simultaneously consumed and metabolic cross‐feeding enabled the in situ degradation of acetic acid. As a result, superior product purities were achieved and 19.8 gL−1 (85.2% of the theoretical maximum) of lactic acid could be produced from non‐detoxified steam‐pretreated beech wood. These results demonstrate the potential of consortium‐based CBP technologies for the production of high value chemicals from pretreated lignocellulosic biomass in a single step.

description: As young football players develop important technical and tactical skills during competitive matches, this study investigated quantity and quality of technical and tactical actions in real game conditions in a 4v4 compared to the traditional 7v7 match format. In total, three matches of each format were played by 103 young football players (10.3±0.6 years) and video monitored for subsequent manual tagging of technical and tactical events. Based on the number of technical and tactical actions in the 7v7 matches, players were classified as dominant or non-dominant and changes in these subgroups were assessed during the 4v4 match format. The 4v4 match format significantly (P<0.001) increased total number of actions per player per minute compared to the 7v7 matches (5.59±1.44 and 2.78±0.73, respectively) and the number of successful (2.88±0.92 and 1.15±0.49, respectively) and unsuccessful (1.05±0.42 and 0.67±0.23, respectively) actions. Both dominant and non-dominant players increased their number of actions during the 4v4 compared to 7v7 match format. Despite a missing significant interaction effect, there was a larger percentage increase in number of actions for the non-dominant players (143%) compared to dominant players (72%) in 4v4. The 4v4 match format shows twice as many technical and tactical actions in real game conditions and, therefore, may improve players' skill development.

description: Oat (Avena sativa L.) is a widely used forage crop in the USA and globally, often integrated in dairy systems where it provides the benefits of diversifying crop rotations. As the forage harvest occurs at a later date, forage yield is expected to increase while nutritive value is expected to decrease. To determine the optimal maturity stage to maximize milk production, a 2-year experiment with two forage-oat cultivars (ForagePlus and Laker) and four harvest times (boot stage, 2 days after boot stage, heading, and 5 days after heading) was established in a randomized complete block design with three replications at two locations in Wisconsin, USA. Laker reached the boot stage 4 days earlier and headed 3 days earlier than ForagePlus. Relative forage quality decreased at the same rate with increasing growing degree-days for both locations, years, and cultivars. Therefore, to maximize milk production per cow through feeding the highest nutritive value forage, harvesting oat at boot stage is recommended. Forage yield increased linearly with increas-ing growing degree-days for both locations, years, and cultivars, with steeper slope in Arlington than Madison due to precipitation differences. Model estimates of milk production per hectare in both cultivars increased linearly across the four harvest dates in Arlington. In Madison, milk production per hectare did not change significantly with harvest date. Harvesting oat for forage at late heading can therefore increase milk production per hectare, since the greater forage yield compensates for the reduction in forage nutritive value.

description: Frequency-modulated (FM) combs are produced by mode-locked lasers in which the electric field has a linearly chirped frequency and nearly constant amplitude. This regime of operation occurs naturally in certain laser systems and constitutes a valuable alternative to generate spectra with equidistant modes. Here, we use a low-noise fs-pulse comb as the local oscillator and combine dual comb heterodyne detection with time domain analysis of the multi-heterodyne signal to reveal the temporal trace of both amplitude and phase quadratures of FM comb lasers' electric field. This technique is applied to both a dense and a harmonic mid-infrared free-running quantum cascade laser frequency comb and shows direct evidence of the FM behavior together with the high degree of coherence of these sources. Our results furnish a deeper insight on the origin of the FM combs and pave the way to further improvement and optimization of these devices.

description: Urbanisierung und demographischer Wandel treiben die Umgestaltung unserer Landschaften voran. Diese Entwicklung ist nicht immer positiv: Kulturerbe und Lebensqualität werden allzu oft bereitwillig dem schnellen Profit geopfert. 2018 erinnerte uns die Erklärung von Davos «Eine hohe Baukultur für Europa» daran, dass Bauen Kultur ist und Raum für Kultur schafft. Die europäischen Baukulturpolitiken zielen darauf ab, den Wandel mit Qualität und Nachhaltigkeit zu gestalten. Sie betrachten den gesamten Raum und bevorzugen qualitätsorientierte Ansätze. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt die Grundsätze einer hohen Baukultur vor und erläutert das Konzept als konsequente Weiterentwicklung der «integrierten Denkmalpflege» der 1970er Jahre.

description: Der Beitrag geht der Frage nach, welchen Beitrag so genannte Online-Wahlhilfen zu einer gut funktionierenden modernen Demokratie leisten und welche Rolle sie im Rahmen des Smart City-Konzepts einnehmen können. Dabei dient die Schweizer Online-Wahlhilfe smartvote als Fallstudie und die Gemeinderats- (Legislative) und Stadtratswahlen (Exekutive) in der Stadt Zürich vom 9. Februar 2014 als konkretes Anwendungsbeispiel. Neben der Funktionsweise wird auch erläutert, wie die Benutzung durch Parteien und Kandidierende, Medien sowie Wähler in der Praxis abläuft. Es wird auch diskutiert, was Online-Wahlhilfen leisten können. Schließlich wird darauf eingegangen, wo bei der Anwendung dieser Plattformen noch ungenutzte Potenziale stecken und welche Risiken mit ihrem Einsatz verbunden sind. Der Beitrag zeigt, wie smartvote und vergleichbare Projekte idealtypisch im Sinne einer Smart Democracy in Verknüpfung mit anderen Daten und Instrumenten die Qualität einer modernen Demokratie verbessern können.

description: The V-based kagome superconductors $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ ($A$ = K, Rb, and Cs) host charge density wave (CDW) and a topological nontrivial band structure, thereby provide a great platform to study the interplay of superconductivity (SC), CDW, frustration, and topology. Here, we report ultralow-temperature thermal conductivity measurements on CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ and Ta-doped Cs(V$_{0.86}$Ta$_{0.14}$)$_3$Sb$_5$ and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements on CsV$_3$Sb$_5$. The finite residual linear term of thermal conductivity at zero magnetic field suggests the existence of a residual density of states (DOS) in the superconducting state of CsV$_3$Sb$_5$. This is supported by the observation of non-zero conductance at zero bias in STM spectrum at an electronic temperature of 90 mK. However, in Cs(V$_{0.86}$Ta$_{0.14}$)$_3$Sb$_5$, which does not have CDW order, there is no evidence for residual DOS. These results show the importance of CDW order for the residual DOS, and a nodal $s$-wave gap or residual Fermi arc may be the origin of the residual DOS in such an unusual multiband kagome superconductor, CsV$_3$Sb$_5$.

description: This study explores the application of a two-level algorithm to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio of glueball calculations in four-dimensional SU(3) pure gauge theory. Our findings demonstrate that the statistical errors exhibit an exponential reduction, enabling reliable extraction of effective masses at distances where current standard methods would demand exponentially more samples. However, at shorter distances, standard methods prove more efficient due to a saturation of the variance reduction using the multilevel method. We discuss the physical distance at which the multilevel sampling is expected to outperform the standard algorithm, supported by numerical evidence across different lattice spacings and glueball channels. Additionally, we construct a variational basis comprising 35 Wilson loops up to length 12 and 5 smearing sizes each, presenting results for the first state in the spectrum for the scalar, pseudoscalar, and tensor channels.
