description: Single-person human pose estimation facilitates markerless movement analysis in sports, as well as in clinical applications. Still, state-of-the-art models for human pose estimation generally do not meet the requirements of real-life applications. The proliferation of deep learning techniques has resulted in the development of many advanced approaches. However, with the progresses in the field, more complex and inefficient models have also been introduced, which have caused tremendous increases in computational demands. To cope with these complexity and inefficiency challenges, we propose a novel convolutional neural network architecture, called EfficientPose, which exploits recently proposed EfficientNets in order to deliver efficient and scalable single-person pose estimation. EfficientPose is a family of models harnessing an effective multi-scale feature extractor and computationally efficient detection blocks using mobile inverted bottleneck convolutions, while at the same time ensuring that the precision of the pose configurations is still improved. Due to its low complexity and efficiency, EfficientPose enables real-world applications on edge devices by limiting the memory footprint and computational cost. The results from our experiments, using the challenging MPII single-person benchmark, show that the proposed EfficientPose models substantially outperform the widely-used OpenPose model both in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency. In particular, our top-performing model achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on single-person MPII, with low-complexity ConvNets.

description: To achieve high focal spot intensities in heavy ion fusion, the ion beam must be compressed longitudinally by factors of ten to one hundred before it is focused onto the target. The longitudinal compression is achieved by imposing an initial velocity profile tilt on the drifting beam. In this paper, the problem of longitudinal drift compression of intense charged particle beams is solved analytically for the two important cases corresponding to a cold beam, and a pressure-dominated beam, using a one-dimensional warm-fluid model describing the longitudinal beam dynamics.

Year: 2018

description: The story of Portage is one of successes, challenges, and hope. As Canada's national, library-based research data management network, the goal of Portage is to coordinate and expand existing expertise, services, and infrastructure in support of academic researchers across Canada. As Portage enters its fourth year of operation, it is useful to reflect upon our journey with stories that illustrate Portage successes, that describe how we're addressing current challenges, and that anticipate, with hope and determination, continued progress toward a collaborative and productive RDM ecosystem in Canada. Speakers in this session will rely upon Portage-sponsored surveys and initiatives, and consultations with stakeholders from across the country, to conduct a retrospective examination of our journey to date in order to share stories of successes, challenges, and gaps in the Canadian RDM ecosystem. Our vision of the future will be informed by these experiences and by emerging policy statements and funding scenarios. Participants will leave with a better sense of what Portage is about, what Portage has accomplished, and what's coming around the next turn in our RDM journey.

description: The entanglement entropy of the event horizon is known to be plagued by the UV divergence due to the infinitely blue-shifted near horizon modes. In this paper we calculate the entanglement entropy using the transplanckian dispersion relation, which has been proposed to model the quantum gravity effects. We show that, very generally, the entropy is rendered UV finite due to the suppression of high energy modes effected by the transplanckian dispersion relation.

Fostering Joy : Playscapes of Urban Teens
Creators: name: Pudlas, Marie
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Teenagers are often merely tolerated in public spaces rather than celebrated. Playgrounds, places they were once recently welcome, become spaces where adults steal suspecting glances at them, thinking the worst is about to happen. While teenagers do sometimes cause problems, this is not reason enough to ignore their needs and desires. Outdoor public spaces are crucial for the physical and social development of our youth as they learn to navigate the world on their own. Additionally, as more children and youth grow up in apartment towers, parks and other green spaces are becoming increasingly important in maintaining a connection with nature. This report examines research on what teenagers need and want in outdoor public spaces for mental and physical development. Burnaby Mountain Secondary School is explored as a site for designing interventions for teenagers, teachers, staff, and the neighbouring community to play, hangout, and explore. A connection with nature and the outdoor environment through curriculum and student clubs is emphasized.

description: We present infrared and millimeter observations of molecular gas, dust and ionized gas towards a sample of clouds distributed along the 500 central pc of the Galaxy. The clouds were selected to investigate the physical state, in particular the high gas temperatures, of the Galactic center region (GCr) clouds located far from far-infrared of thermal radio continuum sources. We have found that there is ionized gas associated with the molecular gas. The ionizing radiation is hard (~35000 K) but diluted due to the inhomogeneity of the medium. We estimate that ~30 % of the warm molecular gas observed in the GCr clouds is heated by ultra-violet radiation in photo-dissociation regions.

description: We report the first unambiguous observational evidence of Rydberg Enhanced Recombination (RER), a potentially important recombination mechanism that has hitherto been unexplored in low-temperature photoionized plasmas. RER shares similarities with dielectronic recombination, with the difference that the electron is captured into a highly excited state below the ionization threshold -- rather than above the threshold -- of the recombining ion. We predict transitions of carbon and oxygen ions that are formed via the RER process, and their relative strengths with collisional-radiative spectral models. Optical C II RER features are detected in published high-resolution spectra of eight planetary nebulae, and a C III transition has been found in the ultraviolet spectrum in a symbiotic star system. The relative intensities of these lines are consistent with their production by this recombination mechanism. Because RER has not previously been accounted for in photoionized plasmas, its inclusion in models can significantly impact the predicted ionization balance and hence abundance calculations of important astrophysical species. Calculations for C+ suggest that the enhancement in the total recombination rate can amount to a factor of 2.2 at 8100 K, increasing to 7.5 at T = 3500 K. These results demonstrate the importance of including RER in models of photoionized astrophysical plasmas and in elemental abundance determinations.

description: Achieving simultaneous lasing of photons and phonons in optomechanical setups has great potential for applications in quantum information processing, high precision sensing and the design of hybrid photonic-phononic devices. Here, we explore this possibility with an optomechanical system driven by a two-tone field. Whenever the difference between the driving frequencies matches the associated mechanical frequency, the photon and phonon populations are found to achieve steady-state coherent oscillations, demonstrating a dual lasing phenomenon. Such drive-tone resonance condition can synchronize the phases of the photon and phonon fields, which facilitates a robust simultaneous lasing. Here, we provide analytical insights into the joint amplification of the optical and mechanical modes, and further confirm the dual lasing phenomenon by numerically calculating the relevant correlation functions and the power spectrum. Our setup, consisting of a single optomechanical cavity, is simpler than previous realizations of dual lasing and provides a clean picture of the underlying mechanisms. Our work thus paves the way for the development of novel strategies for the optimisation of optomechanical interactions through tailored driving schemes.

description: Programming language instruction is a relatively new offering in academic libraries. A variety of approaches have been adopted, with varying outcomes. In this panel, staff from three university libraries will present programming language instruction efforts.Columbia University Libraries initiated the Open Lab concept two years ago, a weekly session to facilitate learning languages such as R and Python. Participants are given a brief lesson with time to practice, ask questions, and learn from one another in an open environment.The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Library staff members adopted the Open Labs model for teaching R with campus partner the Odum Institute for Research in Social Science. Other efforts include traditional workshops and participation in a campus working group.Librarians from Duke University explored a variety of teaching formats for providing R and Python instruction ranging from workshops, boot camps, and community engagement events designed to expand the R/Python community on campus while simultaneously increasing their ability to consult in these areas.Panelists will share their experiences and lessons learned in providing programming language support by describing their approaches, attendee characteristics, staffing and partnerships, and community-building endeavors, and close by relating outcomes and plans for the future.

Certifying quantum signatures in thermodynamics and metrology via contextuality of quantum linear response

description: We identify a fundamental difference between classical and quantum dynamics in the linear response regime by showing that the latter is in general contextual. This allows us to provide an example of a quantum engine whose favorable power output scaling \emph{unavoidably} requires nonclassical effects in the form of contextuality. Furthermore, we describe contextual advantages for local metrology. Given the ubiquity of linear response theory, we anticipate that these tools will allow one to certify the nonclassicality of a wide array of quantum phenomena.

description: We explore extensions of Schelling's model of social dynamics, in which two types of agents live on a checkerboard lattice and move in order to optimize their own satisfaction, which depends on how many agents among their neighbors are of their same type. For each number $n$ of same-type nearest neighbors we independently assign a binary satisfaction variable $s_{k}$ which is equal to one only if the agent is satisfied with that condition, and is equal to zero otherwise. This defines 32 different satisfaction rules, which we investigate in detail, focusing on pattern formation and measuring segregation with the help of an "energy" function which is related to the number of neighboring agents of different types and plays no role in the dynamics. We consider the checkerboard lattice to be fully occupied and the dynamics consists of switching the locations of randomly selected unsatisfied agents of opposite types. We show that, starting from a random distribution of agents, only a small number of rules lead to (nearly) fully segregated patterns in the long run, with many rules leading to chaotic steady-state behavior. Nevertheless, other interesting patterns may also be dynamically generated, such as "anti-segregate d" patterns as well as patterns resembling sponges.

description: RNA secondary structures of increasing complexity are probed combining single molecule stretching experiments and stochastic unfolding/refolding simulations. We find that force-induced unfolding pathways cannot usually be interpretated by solely invoking successive openings of native helices. Indeed, typical force-extension responses of complex RNA molecules are largely shaped by stretching-induced, long-lived intermediates including non-native helices. This is first shown for a set of generic structural motifs found in larger RNA structures, and then for Escherichia coli's 1540-base long 16S ribosomal RNA, which exhibits a surprisingly well-structured and reproducible unfolding pathway under mechanical stretching. Using out-of-equilibrium stochastic simulations, we demonstrate that these experimental results reflect the slow relaxation of RNA structural rearrangements. Hence, micromanipulations of single RNA molecules probe both their native structures and long-lived intermediates, so-called "kinetic traps", thereby capturing -at the single molecular level- the hallmark of RNA folding/unfolding dynamics.

Helping researchers utilize virtual reality (VR) for data visualization
Creators: name: Wrable, Madeline
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: This presentation seeks to inspire others to get started with virtual reality (VR), and see the wide range of applications and collaborations that have come from our own experiences. The background of this idea to bring VR into the GIS Lab at MIT Libraries was based on patrons being able to "walk" around the maps they created. Due to the nature of a GIS lab it took very little to get started, namely the purchase of a VR headset and powerful graphics card. This presentation will detail the workflow of GIS, 3D modeling, to VR. It will discuss how VR can be used to inform space planning, such as we did with our new GIS lab. Another application was to recreate landscapes from drone imagery to allow students to virtually revisit their prior field sites. Movie clips will be included in the presentation so that viewers can experience these visualization capabilities. We will also discuss the navigation of sharing this technology with students, staff, and faculty.

description: We build a supersymmetric version with $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(2)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{Y^{\prime}}\otimes U(1)_{(B-L)}$ gauge symmetry, where $Y^{\prime}$ is a new charge and ($B$) and ($L$) are the usual baryonic and leptonic numbers, respectivelly. The model has three right-handed neutrinos with non identical $(B-L)$ charges. We will use the superfield formalism in order to build our lagrangian and it is possible to accommodate all fermion masses at the tree level. In particular, the type-I seesaw mechanism is implemented for the generation of the active neutrino masses and also explain the mixing angle at the fermion sector. There are good candidates to Dark Matter, it can be the lighest righ-handed neutrinos or lighest right-handed sneutrinos or the lighest usual scalar field and due a Majorana phase at sneutrinos right-handed masses, it can induce Leptogenesis in this model.

description: Eminent domain (ED), the legal right to acquire property by forced rather than voluntary exchange is often used in the assembly of contiguous properties to accomplish the siting of facilities having a public use characteristic. To gauge the relative economic efficiency of ED, a model is proposed which relies in great part on identification of distributional phenomena in both market and ED acquisitions. Analyzed data suggest that distribution-related issues such as holdout behavior, bearing of transactions costs, and relocation compensation are important determinants of ED's efficiency.

Now recognised as a valid species, M. africana, since its description in 1842, was considered a variety or form of the common European asteroid Marthasterias glacialis (Linnaeus, 1758) (e.g. Mortensen 1933; Clark & Courtman-Stock 1976). Péron and Lesueur collected individuals of this common species when staying in the Cape of Good Hope area on their way back to France. Péron and Lesueur’s material of A. africanus could not be found in the MNHN.

description: This paper presents a mathematical model incorporating production returns and government payments to evaluate how selected past, present, and proposed USDA conservation and commodity programs will influence incentives to retire erodible cropland. Analysis revealed that USDA's new conservation reserve program will make commodity programs reinforce rather than dilute incentives to retire erodible cropland. Application to a southeastern Washington wheat production region revealed that the conservation reserve greatly diminished disincentives to retire erodible land, but that strengthening the program by providing farmers supplemental annual payments per retired acre, as proposed by legislation before Congress, would likely still be needed.

We introduce a powerful new method for calculating differential distributions in hard scattering processes. This method is based upon a generalization of the optical theorem; it allows the integration-by-parts technology developed for multi-loop diagrams to be applied to non-inclusive phase-space integrals, and permits a high degree of automation. We apply our results to the analysis of fixed target experiments.

description: In this paper we develop an evidential force aggregation method intended for classification of evidential intelligence into recognized force structures. We assume that the intelligence has already been partitioned into clusters and use the classification method individually in each cluster. The classification is based on a measure of fitness between template and fused intelligence that makes it possible to handle intelligence reports with multiple nonspecific and uncertain propositions. With this measure we can aggregate on a level-by-level basis, starting from general intelligence to achieve a complete force structure with recognized units on all hierarchical levels.

Hippodonta humboldtiana

description: Hippodonta humboldtiana A. Pavlov, Levkov, D.M. Williams & Edlund, sp. nov. (Figs 213–218)
 Type:— MACEDONIA. Lake Ohrid, Bay of Trpejca, mud + sand, 14 m depth, 2 April 2007, collector Z. Levkov. (Accession No. MKNDC 001212; holotype: slide MKNDC! 001212/1; isotype: slide BM! 101643).
Valves rhombic-lanceolate, with distinctly protracted and narrowly rounded valve ends. Valve length 15.7–17.7 µm, width 4.5–6.0 µm. Axial area quite narrow-linear, expanding into a small, rhombic or apicallyelongated elliptic central area. Central area defined by continuous shortening of striae from both valve sides. Terminal area not clearly discernible in LM. Raphe linear-filiform, with clearly pronounced, elliptic central endings. Central raphe endings distantly positioned. Terminal pores of raphe rarely distinguishable in LM view, simple and abruptly terminated. Striae coarse, weakly radiate at middle, becoming parallel or weakly convergent towards valve ends. Striae evenly and densely spaced throughout, 16 in 10 µ m. Interstriae remarkably narrow. Lineolae composing striae not discernible in LM.
 Distribution:— Hippodonta humboldtiana has so far only been observed in Lake Ohrid, Macedonia, where it occurs in the sediment at depths from 20– 35 m.
 Observations:—With respect to the valve outline and its broadly protracted valve ends, H. humboldtiana is similar to H. arkonensis Lange-Bert., Metzeltin & Witkowski (1996: 252, 253, figs 4: 11–17), which was described as fossil, from freshwater deposits, in the Arkona Basin of the Baltic Sea. Nevertheless, H. humboldtiana is consistently wider for any given valve length.

Gamification and fake news: A thriller about the challenges of developing an in-house quiz app
Creators: name: Magder, Cristina
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: As a result of an international mobile applications development contest, the UK Data Service (UKDS) was successful in setting up a simple, yet, functional Data Quiz App. From the beginning of 2017, we began to learn that designing, developing, populating and maintaining an app as part of data service is not an easy task.This presentation will cover the challenges we have faced in populating (resources and skills needed) and promoting the app (reaching non-academic audiences) as well as enhancement of the app's design. The taunts of maintaining an app to current in-house standards of a data service provide both constraints and opportunities. Topics will be explored including best practices in content management, using RESTful APIs, implementing ISO approved software in web apps, and the Android/iOS publishing processes. The presentation will focus on the demand of both new technologies and for the "truth"; in a world of fake news, gamifying data is a useful device in helping to encourage and reassure people that "archived" data are powerful sources of accurate knowledge. This story will be a happy-ending narrative, aiming to remind that, as one wise man once said, "Difficulties vanish when faced boldly."

description: We present large scale 9' x 27' (25 pc x 70 pc) far-IR observations of the Sgr B2 complex using the spectrometers on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The far-IR spectra are dominated by the strong continuum emission of dust and by the fine structure lines of high excitation potential ions (NII, NIII and OIII) and those of neutral or weakly ionized atoms (OI and CII). The line emission has revealed a very extended component of ionized gas. The study of the NIII 57 microns/NII 122 microns and OIII 52/88 microns line intensity ratios show that the ionized gas has a density of n_e~10^{2-3} cm^-3 while the ionizing radiation can be characterized by a diluted but hard continuum, with effective temperatures of ~35000 K. Photoionization models show that the total number of Lyman photons needed to explain such an extended component is approximately equal to that of the HII regions in Sgr B2(N) and (M) condensations. We propose that the inhomogeneous and clumpy structure of the cloud allows the radiation to reach large distances through the envelope. Therefore, photodissociation regions (PDRs) can be numerous at the interface of the ionized and the neutral gas. The analysis of the OI (63 and 145 microns) and CII (158 microns) lines indicates an incident far-UV field (G_0, in units of the local interstellar radiation field) of 10^{3-4} and a H density of 10^{3-4} cm^{-3} in such PDRs. We conclude that extended photoionization and photodissociation are also taking place in Sgr B2 in addition to more established phenomena such as widespread low--velocity shocks.

description: Base4NFDI contributes to the evolution and innovation of the German RDM service landscape and is committed to ensuring interoperability across existing infrastructures beyond Germany to underpin the transition to open science. This paper introduces activities of the NFDI, the emerging Base4NFDI services, current EOSC developments, and explores ways the German national initiative can find connectivity and complement the ongoing European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) activities. It examines the EOSC Interoperability Framework as a tool to find pathways for potential alignment between Base4NFDI Basic services with EOSC, lists action areas, and gives practical guidance for Base4NFDI services to enable organisational, technical, semantic and legal interoperability. Readership is targeted towards the Base4NFDI service development teams, the NFDI and EOSC communities.

REMARK
The MNHN houses two individuals of Döderlein’s Anthenea australiae under the name Anthenea pentagonula (Lamarck, 1816), a misidentification resulting from an earlier confusion about the status of Lamarck’s Asterias pentagonula (further explanation under that species).

Competition between tenants with strategic resource allocation in 5G network slicing

description: We propose and analyze a business model for 5G operators. Each operator is entitled to a share of a network operated by an Infrastructure Provider (InP) and use network slicing mechanisms to request network resources as needed for service provision. The network operators become Network Slice Tenants (NSTs). The InP performs the resource allocation based on a vector of weights chosen strategically by each NST. The weights distribute the NST's share of resources between its subscribers in each cell. We propose a strategy profile in which the NST chooses weights equal to the product of its share by the ratio between the total number of subscribers in the cell and the total number of subscribers in the network. We characterize the proposed solution in terms of subscription ratios and fractions of subscribers, for different cell capacities and user sensitivities. The proposed solution provides the exact values for the Nash equilibrium if the cells are homogeneous in terms of normalized capacity, which is a measure of the total amount of resources available in the cell. Otherwise, if the cells are heterogeneous, it provides an accurate approximation. We quantify the deviation from the equilibrium and conclude that it is highly accurate.
title: The Ability of Young Children to Recognize Facial Photographs of Young Children Young Adults and Senior Citizens

description: A review of the literature on facial recognition including a description of its development from birth to old age, hypothesized reasons for its unique development, and factors which affect it, reveals the need for facial recognition studies involving the young child. Twenty children (10 males, 10 females) at each of three ages (3, 5, and 7 years) were presented with 30 pictures of persons of both sexes from three age groups (3-7, 18-25, and 50 years and above). A testing procedure followed in which each child was asked to pick out the test picture from a photo album page with five distractor pictures of persons of like sex and age. Results showed that facial recognition ability improved with age, that females were recognized more easily than males, and that pictures of young children and senior citizens were easier to discriminate than pictures of young adults. Also the interaction of the age of the child and the age of the picture proved significant, indicating that most of the differential response to the age groups was due to the 7 year-olds, who recognized children and senior citizens at a significantly higher level than young adults. Possible interpretations of these findings are discussed and future research is suggested.
