Dinámica del tiempo
Creators: name: Adán Estudillo
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: En este trabajo se propone un nuevo paradigma en la comprensión del tiempo, argumentando que no es una coordenada fundamental del espacio-tiempo, sino una propiedad emergente de la dinámica de sistemas físicos. A partir de esta hipótesis, se desarrollan ecuaciones que describen cómo el tiempo emergente da lugar a la métrica del espacio-tiempo y a la curvatura de Einstein como un efecto colectivo. Se analiza la posibilidad de explicar la expansión cósmica sin necesidad de una constante cosmológica fija y se presenta una reinterpretación de la radiación de Hawking y la paradoja de la información en agujeros negros.

En particular, se estudia cómo la dinámica del tiempo emergente podría explicar la duplicación de galaxias observada en grandes escalas y sugiere una revisión de los efectos gravitacionales en la rotación de galaxias sin necesidad de materia oscura.

El documento desarrolla un marco matemático sólido que incluye ecuaciones diferenciales para la evolución del tiempo emergente y su relación con la energía, la masa y la información. Asimismo, se exploran analogías con la electrodinámica y la termodinámica del tiempo, proporcionando un enfoque unificado para entender su rol en la física moderna.

Subjects: Hydrogen energy

description: This paper presents a review of recent research and development progress on green hydrogen energy systems and associated thermal management and waste heat recovery technologies. First, hydrogen production methods are briefed. Second, various electrolysis systems used for carbon free hydrogen production from renewable and nuclear resources are discussed. Then, hydrogen utilization using proton-exchange fuel cells is scrutinized. Next, hydrogen energy systems integrated with metal hydride energy storage are elaborated. A focus of this review is on thermal management and process intensification technologies for hydrogen energy systems and integrated metal hydride hydrogen storage technologies. Various process and heat transfer enhancement techniques for heat removal and utilization are presented. Advanced cooling technologies for hydrogen energy systems such as two-phase and boiling for cooling, microchannels for heat removal, CO2 air conditioner and using nanofluids for heat removal are discussed. Finally, heat recovery technologies in green hydrogen energy systems are summarized. This review has also identified future research and technology development needs for green hydrogen energy utilization, thermal management, and heat recovery systems.

description: Accurate quantification of reaction products formed during thermochemical pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass would lead to a better understanding of plant cell wall deconstruction for production of cellulosic biofuels and biochemicals. However, quantification of some process byproducts, most notably acetamide, acetic acid and furfural, present several analytical challenges using conventional liquid chromatography methods. Therefore, we have developed a high-throughput gas chromatography based mass spectrometric (GC-MS) method in order to quantify relevant compounds without requiring time-consuming sample derivatization prior to analysis. Solvent extracts of untreated, ammonia fiber expansion (AFEX) treated and dilute-acid treated corn stover were analyzed by this method. Biomass samples were extracted with acetone using an automated solvent extractor, serially diluted and directly analyzed using the proposed GC-MS method. Acetone was the only solvent amongst water, methanol and acetonitrile that did not contain detectable background levels of the target compounds or facilitate a buildup of plant-derived residues in the GC injector, which decreased analytical reproducibility. Quantitative results were based on the method of standard addition and external standard calibration curves.

description: We sketch the proof of some theorems that show how to estimate the parameters in linear regressions, finite moving averages, and in finite order, stationary auto regressions. Some of these estimates have not been studied yet, but the chief novelty is that existing theory is extended to include processes with infinite variance. A main result is that ordinary least squares estimates are consistent for both finite moving average processes and finite order auto regressions. The sampling properties of some of these estimates are indicated.

Transport Layer Support for Highly-Available Network Services

Publisher: name: Rutgers University
Year: 2001

description: We advocate a transport layer protocol for highly available network services using transparent migration of the server endpoint of a live connection between operating servers. We propose a client-initiated migration mechanism, integrated into a migration architecture that uniformly addresses various types of events that negatively impact the quality of service to clients. In the resulting architecture, the migration mechanism is independent and decoupled from any migration policies. In our system connection migration, can be used to improve performance as perceived by the client, for server load balancing, to survive server failures et. We examine and address challenges posed by the transfer of connection state needed for migration to both the OS and the application layer.

description: In this paper, we present an empirical study of per capita income convergence in Italy over the period 1951-2000 based on a fine level of aggregation (the NUTS-3 EU regions represented by the Italian provinces). Concerning the statistical methodology, we use both nonparametric and spatial econometrics approaches to measure the effects of spatial dependence and non-linearities. Our results confirm the convergence club hypothesis and suggest that spillover and convergence clubs are spatially concentrated.

Bernstein-type approximations of smooth functions
Creators: name: Pallini, A.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2007

description: The Bernstein-type approximation for smooth functions is proposed and studied. We propose the Bernstein-type approximation with definitions that directly apply the binomial distribution and the multivariate binomial distribution. The Bernstein-type approximations generalize the corresponding Bernstein polynomials, by considering definitions that depend on a convenient approximation coefficient in linear kernels. In the Bernstein-type approximations, we study the uniform convergence and the degree of approximation. The Bernstein-type estimators of smooth functions of population means are also proposed and studied.

Learning with small disjuncts
Creators: name: Weiss, Gary M.
Publisher: name: Rutgers University
Year: 1995

description: Systems that learn from examples often create a disjunctive concept definition. The disjuncts in the concept definition which cover only a few training examples are referred to as small disjuncts. The problem with small disjuncts is that they are more error prone than large disjuncts, but may be necessary to achieve a high level of predictive accuracy [Holte, Acker, and Porter, 1989]. This paper extends previous work done on the problem of small disjuncts by investigating the reasons why small disjuncts are more error prone than large disjuncts, and evaluating the impact small disjuncts have on inductive learning. This paper shows that attribute noise, missing attributes, class noise, and training set size can each cause small disjuncts to be more error prone than large disjuncts. This paper also evaluates the impact that these factors have on learning with small disjuncts (i.e., on the error rate). It shows, for two artificial domains, that when low levels of attribute noise are applied only to the training set (the ability to learn the correct noise-free concept is being evaluated), small disjuncts are primarily responsible for making learning difficult.

A methodology for the measure of secondary homes tourist flows at municipal level
Creators: name: Guizzardi, A.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2007

description: The present public statistical system does not provide information concerning second houses touristic flows at sub-regional level. The lack limits local administrations' capabilities to take decisions about either: environmental, territorial and productive development, as well as regional governments in fair allocation of public financing.
In the work, this information lack is overcome by proposing an indirect estimation methodology. Municipalities electric power consumption is proposed as an indicator of the stays on secondary homes.
The indicator is connected to tourism flows considering both measurement errors and factors, modifying the local power demand. The application to Emilia-Romagna regional case allow to verify results’ coherence with officials statistics, as weel as to assess municipalities’ tourist vocation.

Implications of a Priori Parameters on Calibration in Conditions of Varying Terrain Characteristics: Case Study of the SAC-SMA Model in Eastern United States
Creators: name: Chouaib, Wafa
name: Alila, Younes, 1962-
name: Caldwell, Peter V.
Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2021

description: This study seeks to advance the knowledge about the effect of a priori parameters on calibration using the Sacramento Soil Moisture accounting Model (SAC-SMA). We investigated the catchment characteristics where calibration is most affected by the limitations in the a priori parameters and we studied the effect on the modeled processes. The a priori parameters of SAC-SMA model parameters were determined from soil-derived physical expressions that make use of the soil’s physical properties. The study employed 63 catchments from the eastern United States (US). The model calibration employed the Shuffle-Complex algorithm (SCE-UA) and used the a priori parameters as default allowing for ±35% as a range of deviation. The model efficiency after calibration was sensitive to the catchment landscape properties, particularly the soil texture and topography. The highest efficiency was obtained in conditions of well-drained soils and flat topography where the saturation excess overland flow is predominant. Most of the catchments with smaller efficiency had poorly drained soils where mountainous and forested catchments of predominant subsurface stormflow had the lowest efficiency. The current regional study shows that improvements of SAC-SMA a priori parameters are crucial to foster their operational use for calibration and prediction at ungauged catchments.

description: The effects of Hurricane Sandy storm surge on wetland degradation and consequent loss of ecosystem services were estimated for coastal wetlands in New Jersey. Research in this field has qualitatively determined the effects of hurricanes on wetlands; however, there has been little quantification of wetland degradation and absolutely no assessment of impact to ecosystem services following a hurricane. Wetland degradation was mapped and quantified by comparing pre- and post-Sandy aerial photography from 2012. Loss of ecosystem services was estimated based on degree of wetland degradation. Our wetland degradation analysis found that the main mechanisms behind degradation were erosion, deposition and marsh salinization. Moderate flooding and marsh dieback were the most prevalent types of damage, and saline marshes and herbaceous wetlands were the most degraded wetland types. Severe degradation was most prevalent, occurring in 41.38 % of the wetlands. In addition, we found that 51.05 % of the degradation was long-term damage. In our ecosystem service loss analysis, we created a range of monetary values to show the distribution of damage. Monetary loss within New Jersey ranged up to $4.4 billion of the total $9.4 billion provided by wetlands (47 %). Our wetland degradation quantification and ecosystem service loss analysis provide insight into the impacts from storm surge damage and offers a novel methodology for remediation and restoration efforts.

Coarsening dynamics of an isotropic ferromagnetic superfluid

name: Blakie, P. B.
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In zero magnetic field the ground-state manifold of a ferromagnetic spin-1 condensate is SO(3) and exhibits Z2 vortices as topological defects. We investigate the phase-ordering dynamics of this system after being quenched into this ferromagnetic phase from a zero-temperature unmagnetized phase. Following the quench, we observe the ordering of both magnetic and gauge domains. We find that these domains grow diffusively, i.e., with domain size L(t)∼t1/2, and exhibit dynamic scale invariance. The coarsening dynamics progresses as Z2 vortices annihilate; however, we find that at finite energy a number of these vortices persist in small clumps without influencing magnetic or gauge order. We consider the influence of a small nonzero magnetic field, which reduces the ground-state symmetry, and show that this sets a critical length scale such that when the domains reach this size the system dynamically transitions in order parameter and scaling behavior from an isotropic to an anisotropic ferromagnetic superfluid.

The concept of measure, from Plato to modern statistics. Art of living or intellectual principle?
Creators: name: Monari, P.
Publisher: name: Dep. of Statistical Sciences "Paolo Fortunati", Università di Bologna
Year: 2007

description: This paper purports to show that the statistical concept of "measure" was advanced right from the origins of western thought: from the philosophical speculation of Plato, to the harmonic numerical relationships of Pythagoras. We must wait until the sixteenth century for a modern definition, when Galileo takes measurement away from the domain of shops and merchants and brings it to the realm of experimental science. It is Galileo too, who begins to delineate the statistical theory of errors which was further developed in the following centuries. Finally, in the nineteenth century, Kant distinguishes between extensive and intensive quantities; the letter do not possess the materiality which is required by physics, but which can still be measured. And so "psycomentrics" was conceived; the horizons of research were widened, and science recognised that everything can be measured, uncertainty, risk and indeterminismess too. So, science conquers probability as a powerful means of measurement in the vast world of uncertainty.

description: The goal of the statistical survey is to study a procedure for the calculation of the two parameters of the Weibull distribution, which is both accurate and robust. This proposed method is based on a “non-parametric” methodology that employs an extension of jackknife procedure applied to Jacquelin method. The robustness and accuracy of the proposed methodology are compared with the other techniques used in the literature such as Theil and Jacquelin procedure, LSR as well as MLE. It is also shown that this method provides accurate estimates, particularly for samples of data presenting outliers.

description: When diatoms are stressed for inorganic nitrogen they remodel their intermediate metabolism and redirect carbon towards lipid biosynthesis. However, this response comes at a significant cost reflected in decreased photosynthetic energy conversion efficiency and growth. Here we explore a molecular genetics approach to restrict the assimilation of inorganic nitrogen by knocking down nitrate reductase (NR). The transformant strain, NR21, exhibited about 50% lower expression and activity of the enzyme but simultaneously accumulated over 40% more fatty acids. However, in contrast to nitrogen-stressed wild-type (WT) cells, which grow at about 20% of the rate of nitrogen-replete cells, growth of NR21 was only reduced by about 30%. Biophysical analyses revealed that the photosynthetic energy conversion efficiency of photosystem II was unaffected in NR21; nevertheless, the plastoquinone pool was reduced by 50% at the optimal growth irradiance while in the WT it was over 90% oxidized. Further analyses reveal a 12-fold increase in the glutamate/glutamine ratio and an increase NADPH and malonyl-CoA pool size. Transcriptomic analyses indicate that the knock down resulted in changes in the expression of genes for lipid biosynthesis, as well as the expression of specific transcription factors. Based on these observations, we hypothesize that the allocation of carbon and reductants in diatoms is controlled by a feedback mechanism between intermediate metabolites, the redox state of the plastid and the expression and binding of transcription factors related to stress responses.

description: Background: The aim of this study was to appraise a recently developed preparedness model for the provision of oral health care during a threat such as the COVID-19 pandemic from the perspectives of oral health care providers, administrators/staff, and patients. Methods: An exploratory qualitative inquiry via at-a-distance semi-structured interviews and group discussions engaged a purposefully selected sample of oral health care workers and patients in British Columbia (BC), Canada. Participants were asked to appraise a preparedness model by considering how to prepare for oral care during a pandemic, while answering open-ended questions about the model content and visual presentation. Interviews and group discussions occurred between April 2020 and January 2021, were audio recorded, and transcribed verbatim. An inductive coding process was used to identify themes, subthemes, and categories of information until saturation was achieved. Results: Seventy-four participants, including 19 dentists, 15 dental hygienists, 10 certified dental assistants, 9 administrators, and 21 patients, suggested modifications to the recently developed preparedness model. Individual interviews (41 participants) and group discussions (33 participants in groups ranging from 2 to 9 attendees each) lasted for an average of 53 min. Eighty-four hours of audio recordings led to more than 1110 single-spaced pages of transcripts. The thematic analysis identified 82 codes, 12 categories, and four main themes: life-long learning, critical thinking, personal and professional risk, and patient-centred care. These themes were understood within provider characteristics and social and environmental contexts. Participants highlighted the need for the model to focus on information and communication, developing awareness and understanding, inferring risks, and performing oral health care during a threat such as a pandemic or disease outbreak. A modified portrayal of the model was suggested to better represent participants’ perspectives. Conclusion: A recently developed preparedness model for the provision of dental care during an unfolding threat like the COVID-19 pandemic was appraised and modified by oral health care workers. Future studies are warranted to evaluate the modified model for use in the event of another unfolding threat collaboratively with providers, patients and stakeholders.

description: The alignment of hexagonal boron-nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) in aqueous KCl solutions under spatially uniform electric fields was examined experimentally, using direct optical visualization to probe the orientation dynamics of individual BNNTs for different electric-field frequencies. Different from most previously studied nanowires and nanotubes, BNNTs are wide-bandgap materials which are essentially insulating at room temperature. We analyze the electro-orientation of BNNTs in the general context of polarizable cylindrical particles in liquid suspensions, whose behavior can fall into different regimes, including alignment due to Maxwell-Wagner induced dipoles at high frequencies, and alignment due to fluid motion of the electrical double layer around the particles at lower frequencies. For BNNTs, the variation of the crossover frequencies in the electro-orientation spectra was studied in electrolytes of different conductivity. The effect of BNNT surface charge on electro-orientation was further studied by changing the pH of the aqueous solution. We find that the electric-field alignment of the BNNTs in the low-frequency regime is associated with the charging and motion of the electrical double layer around the particle. However, as BNNTs are non-conducting particles, the reasons for the formation of the electrical double layer are likely to be different than that of conducting particles. We discuss two possible mechanisms for the double-layer formation and alignment of 1D dielectric particles, and make comparison to those for the more commonly studied conducting particles.

description: It is well-known that Halley’s method can be obtained by applying Newton’s method to the function f/√ f ′ . Gerlach [3], gives a generalization of this approach, and for each m ≥ 2, recursively defines an iteration function Gm(x) having order m. Kalantari et al. [6], and Kalantari [8] derive and characterize a determinantal family of iteration functions, called the Basic Family, Bm(x), m ≥ 2. In this paper we prove, Gm (x) = Bm (x). On the one hand, this implies that Gm(x) enjoys the previously derived properties of Bm(x), i.e., the closed formula, its efficient computation, an expansion formula which gives its precise asymptotic constant, as well as its multipoint versions. On the other hand, this gives a new insight on the Basic Family and Newton’s method.
Four Worlds of Welfare: Understanding Subnational Variation in Chinese Social Health Insurance

description: China’s social health insurance has expanded dramatically over the past decade. The increasing number of beneficiaries and benefits, however, has aggravated rather than mitigated regional disparities in health care. How can the regional variation in Chinese social health insurance be explained? This paper argues that the subnational variation in China’s social health insurance results from the policy choices of central and local states. The central leadership, which is concerned about regime stability, delegates substantial discretionary authority to local state agents to accommodate diverse social needs and local circumstances. Local officials, who care about their political careers in the centralized personnel system, proactively design and implement social health insurance policy according to local situations such as fiscal resources and social risk. In specifying the rationale, conditions and patterns of regional variation in Chinese social health insurance, this paper addresses the general issue of how political leaders in an authoritarian regime respond to social needs.
Rain or shine? Forecasting search process performance in exploratory search tasks

description: Most information retrieval (IR) systems consider relevance, usefulness, and quality of information objects (documents, queries) for evaluation, prediction, and recommendation, often ignoring the underlying search process of information seeking. This may leave out opportunities for making recommendations that analyze the search process and/or recommend alternative search process instead of objects. To overcome this limitation, we investigated whether by analyzing a searcher’s current processes we could forecast his likelihood of achieving a certain level of success with respect to search performance in the future. We propose a machine-learning-based method to dynamically evaluate and predict search performance several time-steps ahead at each given time point of the search process during an exploratory search task. Our prediction method uses a collection of features extracted from expression of information need and coverage of information. For testing, we used log data collected from 4 user studies that included 216 users (96 individuals and 60 pairs). Our results show 80–90% accuracy in prediction depending on the number of time-steps ahead. In effect, the work reported here provides a framework for evaluating search processes during exploratory search tasks and predicting search performance. Importantly, the proposed approach is based on user processes and is independent of any IR system.

description: Ovarian clear cell adenofibroma is uncommon, and borderline clear cell adenofibroma (low malignant potential) is extremely rare. Borderline clear cell adenofibromas may represent the precursor lesion of clear cell adenocarcinoma of the ovary, but this has not been established. We present a case of a woman in her mid-fifties with a clear cell adenofibroma ranging from benign to borderline to frankly invasive. While some clear cell adenocarcinomas are thought to arise from endometriosis, this range of findings supports the theory that some ovarian clear cell adenocarcinomas originate from borderline tumors.
