description: Additional file 10. Funnel plot of log(Relative Risk) vs. standard error for time-series studies from Fig. 4. Filled circles represent observed values, open circles represent missing studies identified with trim and fill, and the vertical line represents the log of the pooled relative risk. In the absence of publication bias, points should be symmetrically distributed around the vertical line, with smaller studies (larger standard errors on vertical axis) more widely scattered. Filling the plot with points mirroring observed values corrects for apparently missing smaller and/or negative studies which may have been suppressed due to publication bias.

description: Four models for the initial conditions of a fluid dynamic description of high energy heavy ion collisions are analysed and compared. We study expectation values and event-by-event fluctuations in the initial transverse energy density profiles from Pb-Pb collisions. Specifically, introducing a Fourier-Bessel mode expansion for fluctuations, we determine expectation values and two-mode correlation functions of the expansion coefficients. The analytically solveable independent point-sources model is compared to an initial state model based on Glauber theory and two models based on the Color Glass Condensate framework. We find that the large wavelength modes of all investigated models show universal properties for central collisions and also discuss to which extent general properties of initial conditions can be understood analytically.

A Unified Framework for Low-Rank plus Sparse Matrix Recovery
Creators: name: Zhang, Xiao
name: Wang, Lingxiao
name: Gu, Quanquan
Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2024

description: We propose a unified framework to solve general low-rank plus sparse matrix recovery problems based on matrix factorization, which covers a broad family of objective functions satisfying the restricted strong convexity and smoothness conditions. Based on projected gradient descent and the double thresholding operator, our proposed generic algorithm is guaranteed to converge to the unknown low-rank and sparse matrices at a locally linear rate, while matching the best-known robustness guarantee (i.e., tolerance for sparsity). At the core of our theory is a novel structural Lipschitz gradient condition for low-rank plus sparse matrices, which is essential for proving the linear convergence rate of our algorithm, and we believe is of independent interest to prove fast rates for general superposition-structured models. We illustrate the application of our framework through two concrete examples: robust matrix sensing and robust PCA. Experiments on both synthetic and real datasets corroborate our theory.

description: Depuis une dizaine d'années, l'intensification de la filière maraîchère à la Martinique est marquée par l'essor des cultures sous abris (hors sol et pleine terre). La connaissance des contraintes phytosanitaires d'origine tellurique des cultures maraîchères de plein champs nous a conduit à rechercher les bases nécessaires à assurer la pérennité de ces cultures sous abris en pleine terre. Ce travail a été réalisé par la méthode du suivi multilocal d'exploitations (Lorrain, Morne-Vert, Saint-Esprit) couvrant la diversité des principales régions de production. Après 14 mois, l'inventaire du parasitisme tellurique (champignon, nématode) a pu être dressé ainsi que la mise évidence de certaines contraintes agronomiques. La nématofaune phytoparasite est dominée par Meloidogyne et Rotylenchulus; Meloidogyne constituant une contrainte majeure à la production sur deux des sites suivis. Le genre Rotylenchulus n'est par contre dominant que sur le site installé sur ferrisol. Du point de vue de la microflore, selon les sols et les cultures, les champignons pathogènes et saprophytiques sont caractérisés par des fluctuations importantes de leur fréquence d'isolement; trois espèces pathogènes potentielles sont les plus fréquentes: Fusarium solani, Pythium splendens et Rhizoctonia solani. Enfin d'un point de vue agronomique, les inconvénients de certains types de sol (ferrisol) et les répercussions de certaines techniques culturales sur le parasitisme, sont apparus accentués en culture sous abri.

description: Powersport engine industry is characterized by a high concentration of capital and technology. A very large amount of initial investment is made in the new product devel-opment phase. If the new product development is not organized properly, the company will suffer huge losses. Meanwhile, as more capital inflows, competition among enter-prises has become more and more intense. More stringent emissions regulations, along with consumer-s need for more fuel efficient vehicles, create a challenge in man-ufacturer-s mature economies. APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning), one of five manuals in ISO/TS 16949 from QS-9000, as an advanced new product development project management method has increasingly been used by engine manufacturers. Company BRP-Powertrain is a subsidiary of BRP (Bombardier Recreational Products Inc.). Its main products are high performance four-stroke and advanced two-stroke en-gines. In order to optimize its supplier chain management and new product develop-ment process, improve its market response and speed up the high-quality, low-cost new products development to meet customer needs, the supplier quality department of company BRP-Powertrain is trying to introduce APQP. The purpose of this thesis is to create customized and standardized modular APQP element for company BRP-Powertrain based on its own new product development process. Firstly, the current state of its new product development process will be ana-lysed and then it will be compared with APQP process. The results of these analyses provide the base to summarize and optimize the new product development process by creating customized and standardized modular APQP elements. Each element of the APQP process will be customized with company's specific requirements (organization, resources, time scope...) and modularly constructed. The implementation rules and procedures of the modules are also created.

description: The accuracy and uniformity of pesticide application is greatly influenced by the condition of spray nozzles. Their performance is affected by the hardness of materials from which they are made, the extent of their use, the abrasiveness of spray formulations, and the way they are cleaned and handled. Nozzle performance was tested utilizing a KZCO Spray Tech bench-top nozzle testing console. This proved to be an effective and convenient device to measure nozzle capacity and to demonstrate the effect of wear on nozzle capacity. Worn nozzles contribute to pesticide pollution and residue proplems. Residue levels were tested using an Enzytec Pesticide Detector Ticket technique. This is a quick and economical color method based upon the principle of cholinesterase inhibition.

description: The CMS collaboration reported an intriguing \sim 3 sigma (local) excess at 96 GeV in the light Higgs-boson search in the diphoton decay mode. This mass coincides with a \sim 2 sigma (local) excess in the bb final state at LEP. We briefly review the proposed combined interpretations for the two excesses. In more detail we review the interpretation of this possible signal as the lightest Higgs boson in the 2 Higgs Doublet Model with an additional real Higgs singlet (N2HDM). We show which channels have the best prospects for the discovery of additional Higgs bosons at the upcoming Run 3 of the LHC.

description: Dans les vertisols de Barbade, après la plantation, les peuplements de nématodes endoparasites importants observés dans les racines de bouture pourraient perturber le développement des tiges primaires. Les peuplements de nématodes ectoparasites, dominés par Helicotylenchus concavus, sont à priori peu pathogènes et ne peuvent pas expliquer la diminution brutale des longueurs des tiges en repousse. L'existence de faibles populations de nématodes endoparasites dans les racines de tige et leur diminution progressive au fil des repousses, suggèrent que ces organismes sont en compétition avec d'autres agents pathogènes. La présence de Pythium arrhenomanes pourrait expliquer cette situation, d'autant plus que les cannes à sucre à Barbade présentent des symptômes équivalents à ceux provoqués par ce champignon en Australie (Poor Root Syndrome).

description: Power-law behaviors are common in many disciplines, especially in network science. Real-world networks, like disease spreading among people, are more likely to be interconnected communities, and show richer power-law behaviors than isolated networks. In this paper, we look at the system of two communities which are connected by bridge links between a fraction $r$ of bridge nodes, and study the effect of bridge nodes to the final state of the Susceptible-Infected-Recovered model, by mapping it to link percolation. By keeping a fixed average connectivity, but allowing different transmissibilities along internal and bridge links, we theoretically derive different power-law asymptotic behaviors of the total fraction of the recovered $R$ in the final state as $r$ goes to zero, for different combinations of internal and bridge link transmissibilities. We also find crossover points where $R$ follows different power-law behaviors with $r$ on both sides when the internal transmissibility is below but close to its critical value, for different bridge link transmissibilities. All of these power-law behaviors can be explained through different mechanisms of how finite clusters in each community are connected into the giant component of the whole system, and enable us to pick effective epidemic strategies and to better predict their impacts.
A Primal-Dual Analysis of Global Optimality in Nonconvex Low-Rank Matrix Recovery

description: We propose a primal-dual based framework for analyzing the global optimality of nonconvex low-rank matrix recovery. Our analysis are based on the restricted strongly convex and smooth conditions, which can be verified for a broad family of loss functions. In addition, our analytic framework can directly handle the widely-used incoherence constraints through the lens of duality. We illustrate the applicability of the proposed framework to matrix completion and one-bit matrix completion, and prove that all these problems have no spurious local minima. Our results not only improve the sample complexity required for characterizing the global optimality of matrix completion, but also resolve an open problem in Ge et al. (2017) regarding one-bit matrix completion. Numerical experiments show that primal-dual based algorithm can successfully recover the global optimum for various low-rank problems.

description: Le suivi sur une année de la nématofaune associée à la canne à sucre a mis en évidence des différences dans les fluctuations saisonnières des nématodes rencontrés. Parmi les espèces phytoparasites, les densités de population d' Hemicriconemoides cocophilus et de Pratylenchus zeae sont significativement plus importantes durant la période de septembre à décembre (saison des pluies) tandis que l'espèce Mesociconema onoense présente des maxima de populations en saison sèche (mars). Le nivellement des parcelles de canne à sucre lors du remodelage, a entrainé l'affleurement d'horizons B ou C situés initialement en profondeur. Dans ces zones, les nématodes ne présentent ni les mêmes fluctuations ni la même composition : dans la zone profondément remodelée les 4 espèces P. zeae, H. cocophilus, M. onoense et H. erythrinae concourent respectivement pour 35, 35, 20, et 10 % du peuplement, tandis que dans la zone non remodelée les 2 premières espèces sont largement prédominantes (45, 35, 5 et 15 %). Ces premiers résultats démontrent que l'incidence des saisons sur les densités de populations et la composition du peuplement est moins importante que celle exercée par les propriétes édaphiques. ----- One year monitoring of sugarcane nematodes community showed differencies in nematode seasonal fluctuations. Population densities of Hemicriconemoïdes cocophilus and Pratylenchus zeae are significantly higher during the rainy season (september to december) white population peaks of M. ONOENSE occur during the dry season (march). Levelling sugarcane plots during hillock-levelling results in small area outcrops of B or C horizons. In these areas, the nematode populations did not show the same fluctuations nor the same compositions. In the hillock-levelled areas the 4 nematode species P. zeae, H. cocophius, M. onoense and H. erythrinae concur to 35, 35, 20 and 10 % of the nematode community, while in the non levelled area the 2 first species are predominant (45, 35, 5 and 15 %). These results show that the seasonal impact on nematodes densities and communities is lower than this played by soil properties.
Test for the Origin of Solar Mass Black Holes

description: Solar-mass black holes with masses in the range of $\sim 1-2.5 M_{\odot}$ are not expected from conventional stellar evolution, but can be produced naturally via neutron star (NS) implosions induced by capture of small primordial black holes (PBHs) or from accumulation of some varieties of particle dark matter. We argue that a unique signature of such "transmuted" solar-mass BHs is that their mass distribution would follow that of the NSs. This would be distinct from the mass function of black holes in the solar-mass range predicted either by conventional stellar evolution or early Universe PBH production. We propose that analysis of the solar-mass BH population mass distribution in a narrow mass window of $\sim 1-2.5\,{\rm M}_\odot$ can provide a simple yet powerful test of the origin of these BHs. Recent LIGO/VIRGO gravitational wave (GW) observations of the binary merger events GW190425 and GW190814 are consistent with a BH mass in the range $\sim 1.5-2.6~M_{\odot}$. Though these results have fueled speculation on dark matter-transmuted solar-mass BHs, we demonstrate that it is unlikely that the origin of these particular events stems from NS implosions. Data from upcoming GW observations will be able to distinguish between solar-mass BHs and NSs with high confidence. This capability will facilitate and enhance the efficacy of our proposed test.

Year: 2024

description: We revisit the inductive matrix completion problem that aims to recover a rank-r matrix with ambient dimension d given n features as the side prior information. The goal is to make use of the known n features to reduce sample and computational complexities. We present and analyze a new gradient-based non-convex optimization algorithm that converges to the true underlying matrix at a linear rate with sample complexity only linearly depending on n and logarithmically depending on d. To the best of our knowledge, all previous algorithms either have a quadratic dependency on the number of features in sample complexity or a sub-linear computational convergence rate. In addition, we provide experiments on both synthetic and real world data to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.

description: En Martinique la maladie des taches noires constitue le problème majeur de la production intensive de l'ananas, occasionnant en moyenne 10 % de perte par an. Si l'on possède des renseignements sur la nature des agents causaux, les mécanismes d'infection et la symptomatologie, en revanche l'étiologie exacte de cette maladie soumise à l'influence de très nombreux facteurs (populations des agents pathogènes et des vecteurs, conditions climatiques, pratiques culturales) reste peu connue. Afin d'identifier et de hiérarchiser ces facteurs dans les conditions martiniquaises une enquête diagnostic a été initiée. Le principe de l'enquête repose sur l'observation d'un nombre important d'unités élémentaires représentatives de la plus grande variabilité possible. L'analyse d'environ 120 parcelles (3 dates de plantations concernant chacune environ 40 parcelles) permettra d'étudier la variabilité temporelle et spatiale dans l'expression de la maladie et de dégager les principaux facteurs explicatifs. Ainsi l'enquête diagnostic a pour objectif essentiel, outre une meilleure connaissance de la maladie, la proposition de solutions techniques concrètes, notamment en terme de pratiques culturales, visant à réduire l'impact de cette maladie. ----- In Martinique the black spot disease is the main problem for intensive pineapple cultivation as it results in average losses of 10%. Although the nature of the causal agents, the infection mechanisms and the symptomatology are known to some extent, the etiology of the disease, the expression of which depends on many factors (populations of pathogens and vectors, climatic conditions, cultural practices), is poorly documented. To identify and hierarchize these factors in the context of Martinique, a diagnostic survey was initiated. This method consists in sampling a high number of elementary observation units to represent the widest variability of situations. Practically, the analysis of 120 observation units (about 40 plots observed at 3 planting dates) will allow to study spatial and temporal variability in the expression of the disease and to identify the most significant factors. So, the main objectives of the diagnostic survey are not only a better understanding of the disease but also the proposai of technical solutions (cultural practices) to reduce the impact of the disease.

Dazu wurde ein Interviewleitfaden aus dem vorgängig erarbeiteten Theorieteil entwickelt. Qualitative Auswertungen zeigen auf, was die Eltern belastend oder unterstützend erlebt und wo wichtige Prozesse stattgefunden haben. Quantitative Daten veranschaulichen, wie stark sie diese Erfahrungen gewichten. Daraus ergeben sich Konsequenzen für die Heilpädagogische Früherziehung. Sie zeigen wesentliche Aspekte auf, die Adoptiveltern von biologischen Eltern unterscheiden. Die Kenntnis dieser Aspekte ermöglicht eine spezifische Beratung und Begleitung von Adoptiveltern im Sinne einer familienorientierten Frühförderung.

description: Despite advancement, numerous country regions have been observing adverse trends in terms of birth rates, society ageing, and negative migration balance. Such tendencies seem to affect particularly eastern (Podkarpacie, Podlasie) and western (Opolszczyzna) regions. Therefore, this article is aimed at investigating how young people assess rural life quality and identifying their preferences when choosing where to study, start their first job, or run their first business. The research sample consists of country-based farming school students and young country students of Opole colleges and universities. The level of country life has been presented through material and living conditions, while life quality has been presented through the respondents’ subjective assessment of their satisfaction with basic conditions that country regions can offer to young high school students. Survey results prove that filling gaps in income structure and narrowing distance between social-economic groups in urban and rural environments is importantly related to income from non-agricultural activities and consequently a better way of material life conditions in the country. Therefore, in the future, more effective measures should be dedicated to creating attractive, well-paid (perceived subjectively) jobs. This element may determine rural populations’ satisfaction with their life quality to a greater extent than infrastructure.

Associations between women's empowerment, infant and young child feeding, and child anemia in rural Senegal
Creators: name: Lee, Amanda
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Malnutrition in all its forms includes undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, and overweight/obesity. The determinants of malnutrition are inadequate dietary intake and disease, with underlying factors of food insecurity, poor health and household environments, and inadequate care practices. Children under 2 years are especially vulnerable to malnutrition because of rapid growth rates, and their nutritional status is directly affected by infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices. Mothers are typically the primary caregivers who are responsible for IYCF. However, for women with low status and unequal access to resources, it is difficult to implement the best care practices. In rural Senegal, where gender inequalities and anemia are prevalent, appropriate complementary feeding practices are of most concern. The present study explores how women’s empowerment is related to IYCF practices and child anemia in the context of rural Senegal. This is a cross-sectional secondary data analysis of subsistence farming households, surveying mothers 15 to 49 years with children aged 0 to 23 months (n=521). Findings show that among children 6 to 23 months (n=484), 41.7% met minimum dietary diversity, 22.3% consumed a minimum acceptable diet, 51.4% had any unhealthy food consumption, and 65.7% consumed zero vegetables and fruits. Mother’s empowerment scores, measured on a scale from 0 to 9, were very low (mean 2.89±1.96). Binary logistic regression revealed few significant differences in IYCF with women’s empowerment as a predictor— having personal savings was the only significant determinant of meeting minimum dietary diversity in unadjusted analyses. The relationship between women’s status and IYCF practices could not be well-established in this study. However, our findings highlight the severity of suboptimal IYCF practices, child anemia, and low women’s status in rural Senegal.

Bayesian inference on change point problems

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Change point problems are referred to detect heterogeneity in temporal or spatial data. They have applications in many areas like DNA sequences, financial time series, signal processing, etc. A large number of techniques have been proposed to tackle the problems. One of the most difficult issues is estimating the number of the change points. As in other examples of model selection, the Bayesian approach is particularly appealing, since it automatically captures a trade off between model complexity (the number of change points) and model fit. It also allows one to express uncertainty about the number and location of change points. In a series of papers [13, 14, 16], Fearnhead developed efficient dynamic programming algorithms for exactly computing the posterior over the number and location of change points in one dimensional series. This improved upon earlier approaches, such as [12], which relied on reversible jump MCMC. We extend Fearnhead's algorithms to the case of multiple dimensional series. This allows us to detect changes on correlation structures, as well as changes on mean, variance, etc. We also model the correlation structures using Gaussian graphical models. This allow us to estimate the changing topology of dependencies among series, in addition to detecting change points. This is particularly useful in high dimensional cases because of sparsity.

description: The aim of this article is to present the legal aspects of the usage, trade, and production of certified seed in Poland. It does not exhaust the subject, but merely presents formal organization of seed market in Poland. These issues are important for Polish agriculture because of the strategic importance of the seeds. Seed market understand as a breeding varieties, production and distribution of seeds is the core of modern rural production. Indirectly is also important for non rural sectors. Despite the importance of plant breeding, this sector is dependent on funding from the income market, in particular royalties and FSS (Farm Saved Seed). Because the low recoverability of these fees and the low use of certified seed compared to the EU, it is a problem and a threat to the Polish biological progress.

description: The CMB $B$-mode polarisation signal -- both the primordial gravitational wave signature and the signal sourced by lensing -- is subject to many contaminants from systematic effects. Of particular concern are systematics that result in mixing of signals of different ``spin'', particularly leakage from the much larger spin-0 intensity signal to the spin-2 polarisation signal. We present a general formalism, which can be applied to arbitrary focal plane setups, that characterises signals in terms of their spin. We provide general expressions to describe how spin-coupled signals observed by the detectors manifest at map-level, in the harmonic domain, and in the power spectra, focusing on the polarisation spectra -- the signals of interest for upcoming CMB surveys. We demonstrate the presence of a previously unidentified cross-term between the systematic and the intrinsic sky signal in the power spectrum, which in some cases can be the dominant source of contamination. The formalism is not restricted to intensity to polarisation leakage but provides a complete elucidation of all leakage including polarisation mixing, and applies to both full and partial (masked) sky surveys, thus covering space-based, balloon-borne, and ground-based experiments. Using a pair-differenced setup, we demonstrate the formalism by using it to completely characterise the effects of differential gain and pointing systematics, incorporating both intensity leakage and polarisation mixing. We validate our results with full time ordered data simulations. Finally, we show in an Appendix that an extension of simple binning map-making to include additional spin information is capable of removing spin-coupled systematics during the map-making process.

description: Targeting T cell metabolism is an established method of immunomodulation. Following activation, T cells engage distinct metabolic programs leading to the uptake and processing of nutrients that determine cell proliferation and differentiation. Redirection of T cell fate by modulation of these metabolic programs has been shown to boost or suppress immune responses in vitro and in vivo. Using publicly available T cell transcriptomic and proteomic datasets we identified vitamin B6-dependent transaminases as key metabolic enzymes driving T cell activation and differentiation. Inhibition of vitamin B6 metabolism using the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) inhibitor, aminoxyacetic acid (AOA), suppresses CD8+ T cell proliferation and effector differentiation in a dose-dependent manner. We show that pyridoxal phosphate phosphatase (PDXP), a negative regulator of intracellular vitamin B6 levels, is under the control of the hypoxia-inducible transcription factor (HIF1), a central driver of T cell metabolism. Furthermore, by adoptive transfer of CD8 T cells into a C57BL/6 mouse melanoma model, we demonstrate the requirement for vitamin B6-dependent enzyme activity in mediating effective anti-tumor responses. Our findings show that vitamin B6 metabolism is required for CD8+ T cell proliferation and effector differentiation in vitro and in vivo. Targeting vitamin B6 metabolism may therefore serve as an immunodulatory strategy to improve anti-tumor immunotherapy.

description: We study the nature of cluster selection in Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) surveys, focusing on single frequency observations and using Monte Carlo simulations incorporating instrumental effects, primary cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and extragalactic point sources. Clusters are extracted from simulated maps with an optimal, multi-scale matched filter. We introduce a general definition for the survey selection function that provides a useful link between an observational catalog and theoretical predictions. The selection function defined over the observed quantities of flux and angular size is independent of cluster physics and cosmology, and thus provides a useful characterization of a survey. Selection expressed in terms of cluster mass and redshift, on the other hand, depends on both cosmology and cluster physics. We demonstrate that SZ catalogs are not simply flux limited, and illustrate how incorrect modeling of the selection function leads to biased estimates of cosmological parameters. The fact that SZ catalogs are not flux limited complicates survey ``calibration'' by requiring more detailed information on the relation between cluster observables and cluster mass.

description: The main purpose of the research was to identify factors determining spatial diversity of the activity of farmers in the area of the implementation of agricultural and environmental programs. The research was conducted using Statistica with the application of two research tools: the analysis of Correlation and Classification and Regression Tree (CART) analysis. The number of beneficiaries of the agricultural and environmental programs per 100 area payments’ beneficiaries in a given territorial unit was adopted as a dependent variable. Based on the research, it was found that features of the agrarian structure had the greatest impact on the diversity of the dependent variable within the Małopolska and Pogórze regions. In poviats, characterized by high fragmentation of farms, the farmers’ agricultural and environmental activities were determined by the scale of nature protection area and unemployment rate. Moreover, agricultural and environmental programs were statistically implemented more often at locations where other forms of support were taken advantage of, e.g. support for young farmers.
