title: Plasmodium falciparum Plasmepsins IX and X: Structure- Function Analysis and the Discovery of New Lead Antimalarial drugs

description: Malaria is a deadly parasitic infection that poses an enormous threat to global health. While drugs are available, all of our current antimalarials are being gradually rendered ineffective by spreading drug resistance. Reports of increasing tolerance to artemisinin combination therapies, our most potent antimalarial treatments, are particularly concerning. To combat this problem there is an urgent need to identify new and unique targets within the malaria parasite against which novel chemotherapeutics can be developed. Studies investigating the antimalarial activity of HIV protease inhibitors (HIV PIs) have shown that these drugs can inhibit the growth of Plasmodium in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo at clinically relevant concentrations. While the anti-parasitic action of these drugs is not fully understood, it is believed these agents inhibit the growth of parasites by targeting an essential malarial aspartic protease or plasmepsin (PM) and that these enzymes may represent new targets for drug development. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the Plasmodium falciparum aspartic proteases PM IX and X as potential new targets for antimalarial development.

description: We present the results of a multi-Lorentzian fit to the power spectra of two kilohertz QPO sources; 4U 0614+09 and 4U 1728-34. This work was triggered by recent results of a similar fit to the black-hole candidates (BHCs) GX 339-4 and Cyg X-1 by Nowak in 2000. We find that one to six Lorentzians are needed to fit the power spectra of our two sources. The use of exactly the same fit function reveals that the timing behaviour of 4U 0614+09 and 4U 1728-34 is almost identical at luminosities which are about a factor 5 different. As the characteristic frequency of the Lorentzians we use the frequency, nu_max, at which each component contributes most of its variance per log frequency as proposed by Belloni, Psaltis & van der Klis in 2001. When using nu_max instead of the centroid frequency of the Lorentzian, the recently discovered hectohertz Lorentzian is practically constant in frequency. We use our results to test the suggestions by, respectively, Psaltis Belloni and van der Klis in 1999 and Nowak in 2000 that the two Lorentzians describing the high-frequency end of the broad-band noise in BHCs in the low state can be identified with the kilohertz QPOs in the neutron star low mass X-ray binaries. We find, that when the two kilohertz QPOs are clearly present, the low-frequency part of the power spectrum is too complicated to draw immediate conclusions from the nature of the components detected in any one power spectrum. However, the relations we observe between the characteristic frequencies of the kilohertz QPOs and the band-limited noise, when compared to the corresponding relations in BHCs, hint towards the identification of the second-highest frequency Lorentzian in the BHCs with the lower kilohertz QPO. They do not confirm the identification of the highest-frequency Lorentzian with the upper kilohertz QPO.

description: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are known to be vulnerable to adversarial examples. Further, these adversarial examples are found to be transferable from the source network in which they are crafted to a black-box target network. As the trend of using deep learning on embedded devices grows, it becomes relevant to study the transferability properties of adversarial examples among compressed networks. In this paper, we consider quantization as a network compression technique and evaluate the performance of transfer-based attacks when the source and target networks are quantized at different bitwidths. We explore how algorithm specific properties affect transferability by considering various adversarial example generation algorithms. Furthermore, we examine transferability in a more realistic scenario where the source and target networks may differ in bitwidth and other model-related properties like capacity and architecture. We find that although quantization reduces transferability, certain attack types demonstrate an ability to enhance it. Additionally, the average transferability of adversarial examples among quantized versions of a network can be used to estimate the transferability to quantized target networks with varying capacity and architecture.
Radiative Equilibrium and Temperature Correction in Monte Carlo Radiation Transfer

description: We describe a general radiative equilibrium and temperature correction procedure for use in Monte Carlo radiation transfer codes with sources of temperature-independent opacity, such as astrophysical dust. The technique utilizes the fact that Monte Carlo simulations track individual photon packets, so we may easily determine where their energy is absorbed. When a packet is absorbed, it heats a particular cell within the envelope, raising its temperature. To enforce radiative equilibrium, the absorbed packet is immediately re-emitted. To correct the cell temperature, the frequency of the re-emitted packet is chosen so that it corrects the temperature of the spectrum previously emitted by the cell. The re-emitted packet then continues being scattered, absorbed, and re-emitted until it finally escapes from the envelope. As the simulation runs, the envelope heats up, and the emergent spectral energy distribution (SED) relaxes to its equilibrium value, without iteration. This implies that the equilibrium temperature calculation requires no more computation time than the SED calculation of an equivalent pure scattering model with fixed temperature. In addition to avoiding iteration, our method conserves energy exactly, because all injected photon packets eventually escape. Furthermore, individual packets transport energy across the entire system because they are never destroyed. This long-range communication, coupled with the lack of iteration, implies that our method does not suffer the convergence problems commonly associated with lambda-iteration. To verify our temperature correction procedure, we compare our results to standard benchmark tests, and finally we present the results of simulations for two-dimensional axisymmetric density structures.

description: We performed spectroscopic observations for a large infrared QSO sample with a total of 25 objects. The sample was compiled from the QDOT redshift survey, the 1 Jy ULIRGs survey and a sample obtained by a cross-correlation study of the IRAS Point Source Catalogue with the ROSAT All Sky Survey Catalogue. Statistical analyses of the optical spectra show that the vast majority of infrared QSOs have narrow permitted emission lines (with FWHM of Hbeta less than 4000 km/s) and more than 60% of them are luminous narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies. Two of the infrared QSOs are also classified as low ionization BAL QSOs. More than 70% of infrared QSOs are moderately or extremely strong Fe II emitters. This is the highest percentage of strong Fe II emitters in all subclasses of QSO/Seyfert 1 samples. We found that the Fe II to Hbeta, line ratio is significantly correlated with the [OIII]5007 peak and Hbeta blueshift. Soft X-ray weak infrared QSOs tend to have large blueshifts in permitted emission lines and significant Fe II48,49 (5100--5400 A) residuals relative to the Boroson & Green Fe II template. If the blueshifts in permitted lines are caused by outflows, then they appear to be common in infrared QSOs. As the infrared-selected QSO sample includes both luminous narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies and low ionization BAL QSOs, it could be a useful laboratory to investigate the evolutionary connection among these objects.

description: As quantum computing is rising in popularity, the amount of quantum programs and the number of developers writing them are increasing rapidly. Unfortunately, writing correct quantum programs is challenging due to various subtle rules developers need to be aware of. Empirical studies show that 40-82% of all bugs in quantum software are specific to the quantum domain. Yet, existing static bug detection frameworks are mostly unaware of quantum-specific concepts, such as circuits, gates, and qubits, and hence miss many bugs. This paper presents LintQ, a comprehensive static analysis framework for detecting bugs in quantum programs. Our approach is enabled by a set of abstractions designed to reason about common concepts in quantum computing without referring to the details of the underlying quantum computing platform. Built on top of these abstractions, LintQ offers an extensible set of ten analyses that detect likely bugs, such as operating on corrupted quantum states, redundant measurements, and incorrect compositions of sub-circuits. We apply the approach to a newly collected dataset of 7,568 real-world Qiskit-based quantum programs, showing that LintQ effectively identifies various programming problems, with a precision of 91.0% in its default configuration with the six best performing analyses. Comparing to a general-purpose linter and two existing quantum-aware techniques shows that almost all problems (92.1%) found by LintQ during our evaluation are missed by prior work. LintQ hence takes an important step toward reliable software in the growing field of quantum computing.

Electromagnetic properties of the nucleon and the Roper resonance in soft-wall AdS/QCD at finite temperature

description: We present a study of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors and of the Roper-nucleon transition at finite small temperature $T$, using an extended version of a soft-wall AdS/QCD approach developed by us previously. In the action we introduce the effective potential, which has quadratic dependence on the holographic coordinate $z$ and depends on both the gluon and quark condensates. Choosing the AdS geometry we restrict ourselves to the AdS Poincaré metric, because the contribution of the AdS-Schwarzschild geometry starts at next-to-leading order ${\cal O}(T^4)$. Hence, one can neglect the temperature dependence of the AdS geometry at small $T$. This is consistent with the Hawking-Page phase transition at a critical temperature representing the transition between thermal AdS/QCD and AdS-Schwarzschild geometry. In the small temperature regime we base our analysis on the temperature dependence of the effective potential, which starts at order ${\cal O}(T^2)$, due to the leading contribution from the quark condensate. As applications we present the analysis of properties of the nucleon and Roper resonance (masses, form factors, and helicity amplitudes) at low temperatures.

(Figs. 28–30)
 Emenadia grombczewskii Semenov, 1891: 377. Type locality: Turkestan mer. [Tajikistan], Wachia.
 Macrosiagon grombczewskii: BEDEL (1895): 185 (new combination).
 Type material. HOLOTYPE: 1 ♀ (depostition see below), ‘Vachija. 3075 m / 27. VII. 89 / Grombczewskij [hw] // Type [p] // Emenadia / grombczewskii m. / ♀ un. typ. ex 5.X.89 [hw]’.
 Type deposition. The species is known only from its original desription based on the female holotype. YABLOKOV- KHNZORYAN (1976) mentioned in his key to the Palaearctic Macrosiagon that he failed to find this specimen. It is deposited in Zoological Institute of Russian Academy of Science, St.- Petersburg from where it was borrowed by Zachary Falin (Kansas) in 1999.
 Remarks. Because of unavailability of the type, M. grombczewskii was listed in ‘ Macrosiagon - nomina dubia’ in BATELKA (2008a). Thanks to detailed images of the type taken by Michael Engel (Kansas) I am now able to offer several remarks regarding the systematic placement and validity of this peculiar taxon.
 Macrosiagon grombczewskii belongs to the M. bifasciata species group as it is defined in this paper. MT 2 is shortened and robust, flattened dorsally as in M. bipunctata, but the medial lobe of the pronotal disc is smooth and without an elevation. An identical combination of both characters also occurs in the African M. caffra, which belongs to the same species group. Males and more females of M. grombczewskii are needed to prove the stability of these and other putative specific characters (e.g. carina and black spots on the pronotal disc) mentioned both by SEMENOV (1891) and YABLOKOV- KHNZORYAN (1976). Until then I prefer to consider M. grombczewskii as a valid species.
 Distribution. This species remains known only from its type locality in Tajikistan.

An efficient shock-capturing central-type scheme for multidimensional relativistic flows. II. Magnetohydrodynamics

description: A third order shock-capturing numerical scheme for three-dimensional special relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (3-D RMHD) is presented and validated against several numerical tests. The simple and efficient central scheme described in Paper I (Del Zanna and Bucciantini, Astron. Astrophys., 390, 1177--1186, 2002) for relativistic hydrodynamics is here extended to the magnetic case by following the strategies prescribed for classical MHD by Londrillo and Del Zanna (Astrophys. J., 530, 508--524, 2000). The scheme avoids completely spectral decomposition into characteristic waves, computationally expensive and subject to many degenerate cases in the magnetic case, while it makes use of a two-speed Riemann solver that just require the knowledge of the two local fast magnetosonic velocities. Moreover, the onset of spurious magnetic monopoles, which is a typical problem for multi-dimensional MHD upwind codes, is prevented by properly taking into account the solenoidal constraint and the specific antisymmetric nature of the induction equation. Finally, the extension to generalized orthogonal curvilinear coordinate systems is included, thus the scheme is ready to incorporate general relativistic (GRMHD) effects.

description: Two fundamental challenges face generative models in engineering applications: the acquisition of high-performing, diverse datasets, and the adherence to precise constraints in generated designs. We propose a novel approach combining optimization, constraint satisfaction, and language models to tackle these challenges in architectural design. Our method uses Quality-Diversity (QD) to generate a diverse, high-performing dataset. We then fine-tune a language model with this dataset to generate high-level designs. These designs are then refined into detailed, constraint-compliant layouts using the Wave Function Collapse algorithm. Our system demonstrates reliable adherence to textual guidance, enabling the generation of layouts with targeted architectural and performance features. Crucially, our results indicate that data synthesized through the evolutionary search of QD not only improves overall model performance but is essential for the model's ability to closely adhere to textual guidance. This improvement underscores the pivotal role evolutionary computation can play in creating the datasets key to training generative models for design. Web article at https://tilegpt.github.io

description: We investigate the influence of laser parameters on laser-assisted watercondensation in the atmosphere. Pulse energy is the most critical parameter. Nanoparticle generation depends linearly on energy beyond the filamentation threshold. Shorter pulses are more efficient than longer ones with saturation at ∼1.5 ps. Multifilamenting beams appear more efficient than strongly focused ones in triggering the condensation and growth of submicronic particles, while polarization has a negligible influence on the process. The data suggest that the initiation of laser-assisted condensation relies on the photodissociation of the air molecules rather than on their photoionization.

description: Beyond-$Λ$CDM models have been proposed to address various shortcomings of the standard cosmological model, such as the ``Hubble tension.'' These models often have an impact on the discrepancy in the amplitude of matter clustering, the ``$σ_8$-tension.'' To explore the interplay between the two tensions, we suggest a simple method to visualize the relation between the two parameters: $H_0$ and $σ_8$. For a given extension of the $Λ$CDM model and dataset, we plot the relation between $H_0$ and $σ_8$ for different amplitudes of the beyond-$Λ$CDM physics. In this work, we use this visualization method to illustrate the trend of selected cosmological models, including nonminimal Higgs-like inflation, early dark energy, a varying effective electron mass, an extra number of relativistic species and modified dark energy models. Although already studied in the literature, some of these models have not been analyzed in view of the two joint tensions. We stress that the method used here could be a useful diagnostic tool to illustrate the behavior of complex cosmological models with many parameters in the context of the $H_0$ and $σ_8$ tensions.

description: This review summarizes recent developments in the study of fermionic quantum criticality, focusing on new progress in numerical methodologies, especially quantum Monte Carlo methods, and insights that emerged from recently large-scale numerical simulations. Quantum critical phenomena in fermionic systems have attracted decades of extensive research efforts, partially lured by their exotic properties and potential technology applications and partially awaked by the profound and universal fundamental principles that govern these quantum critical systems. Due to the complex and non-perturbative nature, these systems belong to the most difficult and challenging problems in the study of modern condensed matter physics, and many important fundamental problems remain open. Recently, new developments in model design and algorithm improvements enabled unbiased large-scale numerical solutions to be achieved in the close vicinity of these quantum critical points, which paves a new pathway towards achieving controlled conclusions through combined efforts of theoretical and numerical studies, as well as possible theoretical guidance for experiments in heavy-fermion compounds, Cu-based and Fe-based superconductors, ultra-cold fermionic atomic gas, twisted graphene layers, etc., where signatures of fermionic quantum criticality exist.

Therefore, a literature search was conducted in Journal of Dairy Science, Theriogenology, Animal Reproduction Science and The Veterinary Journal utilizing the ScienceDirect database. The search revealed 259 articles addressing APM. After applying exclusion criteria, a total of 48 trials remained. It was determined whether the author gave a clear definition of APM, the time of diagnosis relative to calving, and the person who performed the diagnosis. Studies were checked for the presence of definitions of possible findings, thresholds, and test characteristics of the methods used. Overall 9 different diagnostic methods were employed. On average 2·5 ± 1·75 diagnostic methods were used in a study. References to support the use of the diagnostic methods were provided in 10 of 48 articles (20·8%). Vaginal discharge, transrectal palpation and rectal temperature were examined in 39, 22, and 21 of the studies, respectively. Thresholds for diagnostic tests and test characteristics were mentioned in 6 and 3 of the 48 articles, respectively. Based on this systematic review of 48 research papers the evidence supporting the use of the diagnostic methods to identify cows with APM has either been not reported or is weak. In conclusion, the reporting of the diagnostic methods to identify cows with APM needs to be improved and further high- quality research is necessary to improve diagnostic performance of the methods employed.

description: We perform precise studies of two- and three-body interactions near an intermediate-strength Feshbach resonance in $^{39}\mathrm{K}$ at $33.5820(14)\thinspace$G. Precise measurement of dimer binding energies, spanning three orders of magnitude, enables the construction of a complete two-body coupled-channel model for determination of the scattering lengths with an unprecedented low uncertainty. Utilizing an accurate scattering length map, we measure the precise location of the Efimov ground state to test van der Waals universality. Precise control of the sample's temperature and density ensures that systematic effects on the Efimov trimer state are well understood. We measure the ground Efimov resonance location to be at $-14.05(17)$ times the van der Waals length $r_{\mathrm{vdW}}$, significantly deviating from the value of $-9.7 \thinspace r_{\mathrm{vdW}}$ predicted by van der Waals universality. We find that a refined multichannel three-body model, built on our measurement of two-body physics, can account for this difference and even successfully predict the Efimov inelasticity parameter $η$.

Coupling emitted light and chemical yields from stars: a basic constraint to population synthesis models of galaxies

description: In this paper we emphasize the close connection between the chemical and spectrophotometric evolution of stellar systems: Chemical yields from stars correspond to a precise fraction of their emitted light. We translate this concept quantitatively. Starting from simple stellar populations, we derive useful analytical relations to calculate the stellar fuel consumption (emitted light) as a function of basic quantities predicted by stellar models, i.e. the mass of the core and the chemical composition of the envelope. The final formulas explicate the relation between integrated light contribution (total or limited to particular evolutionary phases), chemical yields and stellar remnants. We test their accuracy in the case of low- and intermediate-mass stars, and indicate the way to extend the analysis to massive stars. This formalism provides an easy tool to check the internal consistency between the different stellar inputs adopted in galaxy models: The fuel computed by means of the analytical formulas (corresponding to a given set of chemical yields) should be compared to the exact values given by the luminosity integration along the stellar evolutionary tracks or isochrones (corresponding to a given set of spectrophotometric models). Only if both estimates of the fuel are similar, the stellar inputs can be considered self-consistent in terms of their energetics. This sets an important requirement to galaxy models, also in consideration of the fact that different sources of input stellar data are frequently used to model their spectro-photometric and chemical evolution.

description: Based on a sample of large, publicly traded German companies, we study performance implications of CEO dismissals. We find that measures of accounting performance are good predictors of CEO dismissal events: Low pre- succession accounting performance increases the probability of dismissals. However, replacement CEOs do not manage to turn things around because they do not experience significant increases in either operating or market performance during a two-year post-succession period.

description: Chemical and electrical synapses shape the dynamics of neuronal networks. Numerous theoretical studies have investigated how each of these types of synapses contributes to the generation of neuronal oscillations, but their combined effect is less understood. This limitation is further magnified by the impossibility of traditional neuronal mean-field models ---also known as firing rate models, or firing rate equations--- to account for electrical synapses. Here we introduce a novel firing rate model that exactly describes the mean field dynamics of heterogeneous populations of quadratic integrate-and-fire (QIF) neurons with both chemical and electrical synapses. The mathematical analysis of the firing rate model reveals a well-established bifurcation scenario for networks with chemical synapses, characterized by a codimension-2 Cusp point and persistent states for strong recurrent excitatory coupling. The inclusion of electrical coupling generally implies neuronal synchrony by virtue of a supercritical Hopf bifurcation. This transforms the Cusp scenario into a bifurcation scenario characterized by three codimension-2 points (Cusp, Takens-Bogdanov, and Saddle-Node Separatrix Loop), which greatly reduces the possibility for persistent states. This is generic for heterogeneous QIF networks with both chemical and electrical coupling. Our results agree with several numerical studies on the dynamics of large networks of heterogeneous spiking neurons with electrical and chemical coupling.

description: In recent years, analog circuits have received extensive attention and are widely used in many emerging applications. The high demand for analog circuits necessitates shorter circuit design cycles. To achieve the desired performance and specifications, various geometrical symmetry constraints must be carefully considered during the analog layout process. However, the manual labeling of these constraints by experienced analog engineers is a laborious and time-consuming process. To handle the costly runtime issue, we propose a graph-based learning framework to automatically extract symmetric constraints in analog circuit layout. The proposed framework leverages the connection characteristics of circuits and the devices' information to learn the general rules of symmetric constraints, which effectively facilitates the extraction of device-level constraints on circuit netlists. The experimental results demonstrate that compared to state-of-the-art symmetric constraint detection approaches, our framework achieves higher accuracy and F1-score.

The Intriguing Distribution of Dark Matter in Galaxies

description: We review the most recent evidence for the amazing properties of the density distribution of dark matter around spiral galaxies. Their rotation curves, coadded according to the galaxy luminosity, conform to an universal profile which can be represented as the sum of an exponential thin disk plus a spherical halo with a flat density core. From dwarfs to giants, these halos feature an inner constant density region. The fine structure of dark matter halos is obtained from the kinematics of a number of suitable low-luminosity disk galaxies. The halo circular velocity increases linearly with radius out to the edge of the stellar disk, implying a constant dark halo density over the entire disk region. The properties of halos around normal spirals provide substantial evidence of a discrepancy between the mass distributions predicted in the Cold Dark Matter scenario and those actually detected around galaxies.

description: The performance of an automatic speech recognition system degrades drastically when there is a mismatch between training and testing environments. The aim of robust speech recognition is to overcome this mismatch. Numerous methods have been reported in the literature that attempt to provide robustness to this mismatch. This thesis investigates several different techniques at different stages of the recognition process that are suitable for robust speech recognition. All experiments are conducted on the ISOLET database. The TIMIT database was also used to confirm some of the experimental results. A number of speech enhancement techniques have been used in the past for speech recognition to achieve robustness with respect to noise. A speech enhancement system attempts to reduce noise from the noisy speech signal and is used as a pre-processor to a speech recogniser. In this thesis, a singular value decomposition (SVD) based speech enhancement method is used for robust speech recognition. The speech recognition performance of the SVD method is compared to that of the popular spectral subtraction method. Speech recognition performance is directly affected by the performance of the feature extraction stage. This thesis provides a comprehensive evaluation of a number of acoustic front-ends for robust speech recognition. It also investigates the use of human auditory properties for robust feature extraction. Two acoustic front-ends based on simultaneous masking and variable frequency and temporal resolutions are proposed and their performance is investigated for speech distorted by additive noise and channel distortion. This thesis also investigates the degradation in speech recognition performance due to speech coding distortion. For this, seven different speech coders operating at different bit rates are simulated and the speech recogniser is utilised through each of these coders. The MAP adaptation technique is then applied to adapt the model parameters to the speech coding environment. The resulting system is found to perform well in the presence of the speech coding distortion.

description: The source X-9 was discovered with the {\it Einstein Observatory} in the field of M81, and is located in the dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX. X-9 has a 0.2-4.0 keV luminosity of $\sim 5.5\times 10^{39}$ ergs~s$^{-1}$, if it is at the same distance as Holmberg IX (3.4 Mpc). This luminosity is above the Eddington luminosity of a 1~$M_{\odot}$ compact accreting object. Past hypotheses on the nature of this Super-Eddington source included a SNR or supershell, an accreting compact object and a background QSO. To shed light on the nature of this source, we have obtained and analyzed archival data, including the {\it Einstein} data, 23 ROSAT observations, Beppo-SAX and ASCA pointings. Our analysis reveals that most of the emission of X-9 arises from a point-like highly-variable source, and that lower luminosity extended emission may be associated with it. The spectrum of this source changes between low and high intensity states, in a way reminiscent of the spectra of galactic Black Hole candidates. Our result strongly suggest that X-9 is not a background QSO, but a bonafide `Super-Eddington' source in Ho IX, a dwarf companion of M81.
