description: We propose a new method for solving an important problem of astronomy that arises in observations with ultrahigh-angular-resolution interferometers. This method is based on the application of the theory of artificial neural networks. We propose and compute a multiparameter model for a celestial object like Sgr A*. For this model we have numerically constructed a number of probable images for neural network training. After neural network training on these images, the quality of its operation has been tested on another series of images from the same model. We have proven that a neural network can recognize and classify celestial objects (also obtained from interferometers) virtually no worse than can be done by a human.

description: Situationally Induced Impairments and Disabilities (SIIDs) can significantly hinder user experience in contexts such as poor lighting, noise, and multi-tasking. While prior research has introduced algorithms and systems to address these impairments, they predominantly cater to specific tasks or environments and fail to accommodate the diverse and dynamic nature of SIIDs. We introduce Human I/O, a unified approach to detecting a wide range of SIIDs by gauging the availability of human input/output channels. Leveraging egocentric vision, multimodal sensing and reasoning with large language models, Human I/O achieves a 0.22 mean absolute error and a 82% accuracy in availability prediction across 60 in-the-wild egocentric video recordings in 32 different scenarios. Furthermore, while the core focus of our work is on the detection of SIIDs rather than the creation of adaptive user interfaces, we showcase the efficacy of our prototype via a user study with 10 participants. Findings suggest that Human I/O significantly reduces effort and improves user experience in the presence of SIIDs, paving the way for more adaptive and accessible interactive systems in the future.

description: We compute the particle multiplicities and transverse energies at central and nearly central AA collisions at RHIC and LHC. The initial state is computed from perturbative QCD supplemented by the conjecture of saturation of produced partons. The expansion stage is described in terms of hydrodynamics assuming longitudinal boost invariance and azimuthal symmetry. Transverse flow effects, a realistic list of hadrons and resonance decays are included. Comparison with the data of the multiplicities at $\sqrt s=56$ AGeV and 130 AGeV from RHIC is done and predictions for the full RHIC energy and LHC energy are made for the multiplicities and transverse energies. The reduction from the initially released minijet transverse energy to the $E_T$ in the final state is less than in the one-dimensional case but still dramatic: a factor of 2.7 at RHIC, and 3.6 at the LHC.

description: This study attempts to find relevant strategies of rural development planning for the province of West Sumatra, Indonesia, by using the theory, international experience, and present conditions of the province as tools of analysis. The background and reasons for the study are set out in Chapter One. The basic concept of rural development is discussed briefly in Chapter Two. It includes the definition of the rural development planning strategy; the distinctions between agricultural and rural development; and goals, elements, stages and phases of rural development. It shows clearly that the process of rural development is an extremely complex and complicated matter. The main function of planning is to help rather than to hinder the development process. Without planning, the process might be slow or misdirected. Some types of rural development strategies include: the Minimum Package Strategy, Comprehensive Approaches, and the Sector and Special Schemes. These are distinguished in Chapter Three. The experience of many developing countries in using these strategies is discussed. It includes the experiences of China and Taiwan and the comprehensive approaches, Malaysia with the "Redbook" planning procedure, Ethiopia with the Minimum Package Program and the Chilalo Agricultural Development Unit project, Kenya with the Kenya Tea Development Authority program, Bangladesh with the Comilla Projects, and Indonesia with the programs of Rice Intensification, Project Management Unit, of rubber, Village and District Subsidy, and a number of Special and Sectoral programs.

description: From complex multicellular organisms to the simplest of bacteria, all organisms must properly partition their DNA during cellular replication to ensure equal inheritance of genetic material. One protein key to the proper segregation of the E. coli chromosome is Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) protein MukBEF. MukBEF condenses the chromosome along a linear, axial core that maintains the orientation of two chromosome arms. Systems for proper plasmid partitioning are typically native to the plasmid itself. For the P1 and F plasmids, the ParABS and SopABC partitioning systems ensure equal inheritance of these low-copy-number plasmids. While vastly different, one end-result of the proposed mechanisms by which MukBEF and ParABS/SopABC operate places the replication origin of the bacterial chromosome (oriC or ori) at the same cellular location as the P1/F plasmids, ensuring that these low-copy-number plasmids replicate/segregate along with the chromosome. Transposable phage Mu serves as an ideal tool to test the validity of this scenario, because Mu can only transpose to DNA it physically contacts. We placed Mu on the P1/F plasmids and monitored where it transposed upon one round of transposition. We observed an increased propensity of Mu to transpose near ori, supporting the proposition that the P1/F plasmids are physically close to ori. Does their shared location reflect the constraints of DNA partitioning in a confined space, or is it directed by SMC/Par/Sop proteins? This literature review proposes an experiment to help answer this question while exploring the segregation of chromosomal and low-copy-number plasmids.

description: Within the cranked Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach the self-consistent solutions have been obtained for planar and chiral rotational bands in 132La. It turns out that the chiral band cannot exist below some critical rotational frequency which in the present case equals omega=0.6MeV. The appearance of the critical frequency is explained in terms of a simple classical model of two gyroscopes coupled to a triaxial rigid body.

Mapping properties of the surface and volume parametrix based potential-type operators are analysed. Invertibility of the single layer potential is also studied in detail in appropriate Sobolev spaces. We show that the system of boundary-domain integral equations derived is equivalent to the Dirichlet problem prescribed and we prove the existence and uniqueness of solution in suitable Sobolev spaces of the system obtained by using arguments of compactness and Fredholm Alternative theory.

description: This paper evaluates the potential of Jatropha curcas Linnaeus (Jatropha) as an alternative source of energy for rural households. The plant is said to have potential to diversify rural incomes, reclaim unproductive lands, reduce importation of fossil fuels, and consequently accumulation of green house gases in the atmosphere. A cost benefit analysis was employed to evaluate the feasibility of producing Jatropha as a biodiesel feedstock in relation to other crops in Kwale district. An IRR of 11 percent, BCR of 0.62 and a NPV of (28267.56) showed that production of Jatropha is not feasible at the moment. However we conclude that the plant has a potential to achieve its intended purpose if there is coordination in research and development along the Jatropha value chain and if technical and financial support is accorded to actors at the production level of the chain.

description: The potential of the most recent pre-processing tool, namely, complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN), is examined for providing AI models (artificial neural network, ANN; M5-model tree, M5-MT; and multivariate adaptive regression spline, MARS) with more informative input–output data and, thence, evaluate their forecasting accuracy. A 130-year inflow dataset for Aswan High Dam, Egypt, is considered for training, validating and testing the proposed models to forecast the reservoir inflow up to six months ahead. The results show that, after the pre-processing analysis, there is a significant enhancement in the forecasting accuracy. The MARS model combined with CEEMDAN gave superior performance compared to the other models – CEEMDAN-ANN and CEEMDAN-M5-MT – with an increase in accuracy of, respectively, about 13–25% and 6–20% in terms of the root mean square error.

description: In this paper, we propose two hybrid quantum-inspired neural networks with adaptive residual and dense connections respectively for pattern recognition. We explain the frameworks of the symmetrical circuit models in the quantum-inspired layers in our hybrid models. We also illustrate the potential superiority of our hybrid models to prevent gradient explosion owing to the quantum-inspired layers. Groups of numerical experiments on generalization power show that our hybrid models possess roughly the same level of generalization power as the pure classical models with different noisy datasets utilized. Furthermore, the comparison on generalization ability between our hybrid models and a state-of-the-art hybrid quantum-classical convolutional network demonstrates 3%-4% higher accuracy of our hybrid densely-connected model than the hybrid quantum-classical network. Simultaneously, in terms of groups of experiment on robustness, the results demonstrate that our two hybrid models outperform pure classical models notably in resistance to parameter attacks with various asymmetric noises. They also indicate the superiority of our densely-connected hybrid model over the hybrid quantum-classical network under both symmetrical and asymmetrical attacks. Furthermore, an ablation study indicate that the recognition accuracy of our two hybrid models is 2%-3% higher than that of the traditional quantum-inspired neural network without residual or dense connection. Eventually, we discuss the application scenarios of our hybrid models by analyzing their computational complexities.

description: We extend the standard model by adding an extra generation of isosinglet up- and down-type quark pair which engage in weak interactions only via mixing with the three ordinary quark families. It is shown that the generalized $4\times 4$ quark mixing matrix, which is necessarily nonunitary, leads to nonvanishing flavor changing neutral currents. We then proceed to investigate various distributions and total branching ratio of the inclusive B -> X_s l+ l- (l =e,μ) rare B decays in the context of this model. It is shown that the shapes of the differential branching ratio and forward-backward asymmetry distribution are very sensitive to the value of the model parameters which are constrained by the experimental upper bound on BR(B -> X_s μ^+ μ^-). We also indicate that, for certain values of the dileptonic invariant mass, CP asymmetries up to 10% can be obtained.

description: This paper uses a new market analysis methodology to examine price and trade relationships in eight Pacific Rim factor and product markets central to the Canadian and U.S. pork industries. The new method enables direct estimation of the frequency with which a variety of market conditions occur, including competitive equilibrium, tradability, and segmented equilibrium. While extraordinary profit opportunities emerge episodically in a few niche markets, the vast majority of the markets studied are highly competitive -exhibiting zero marginal profits to spatial arbitrage at monthly frequency -and internationally contestable. In spite of continued high international transfer costs, the Pacific Rim is effectively a single market for pork producers and processors today.

description: Epithelial monolayers are a central building block of complex organisms. Topological defects have emerged as important elements for single cell behavior in flat epithelia. Here we theoretically study such defects in a three-dimensional vertex model for spherical epithelia like cysts or intestinal organoids. We find that they lead to the same generic morphological instability to an icosahedral shape as it is known from spherical elastic shells like virus capsids, polymerized vesicles or buckyballs. We derive analytical expressions for the effective stretching and bending moduli as a function of the parameters of the vertex model, in excellent agreement with computer simulations. These equations accurately predict both the buckling of a flat epithelial monolayer under uniaxial compression and the faceting transition around the topological defects in spherical epithelia. We further show that localized apico-basal tension asymmetries allow them to reduce the transition threshold to small system sizes.

description: Detection of phase transitions is a critical task in statistical physics, traditionally pursued through analytic methods and direct numerical simulations. Recently, machine-learning techniques have emerged as promising tools in this context, with a particular focus on supervised and unsupervised learning methods, along with non-learning approaches. In this work, we study the performance of unsupervised learning in detecting phase transitions in the $J_1$-$J_2$ Ising model on the square lattice. The model is chosen due to its simplicity and complexity, thus providing an understanding of the application of machine-learning techniques in both straightforward and challenging scenarios. We propose a simple method based on a direct comparison of configurations. The reconstruction error, defined as the mean-squared distance between two configurations, is used to determine the critical temperatures ($T_c$). The results from the comparison of configurations are contrasted with that of the configurations generated by variational autoencoders. Our findings highlight that for certain systems, a simpler method can yield results comparable to more complex neural networks. This work contributes to the broader understanding of machine-learning applications in statistical physics and introduces an efficient approach to the detection of phase transitions using machine determination techniques.

An American singing prodigy escapes to Russia following the death of his bandmate and stays after his last close relative – his mother – dies. It’s the late 1990s and he’s found a new home. After a decade in obscurity he makes a comeback by joining a Russian musical collective, but when they embark on a tour during the events in Crimea in 2014, accusations swirl about his past as a democracy promoter for a U.S.-funded NGO in Vladivostok. Condemned by the media as a spy, he’s eventually denounced by Rokko – the man who rediscovered him, mentored him, and became his best friend – a hybrid like him, someone with a toehold in both Russian and American cultures. He returns to the U.S. where he is also viewed warily, for he responds to criticisms of Russia by encouraging a nuanced understanding of the country at a time when there’s no patience for it. He is left without the one thing he’d always searched for: a home.

In my writing, I’m deeply concerned with abuse culture, femininity, and queerness. Too Much is the product of two years of processing my feminine identity and discovering my queer identity. This book is a coming out for me as a queer writer and an assault victim. It’s also a defiance of the censorship I’ve been confronted with in my life as a poet and a women. Oftentimes, in workshop or in conversation, I’ve gotten comments about my writing and myself being “too much.” These comments always appeared around moments that dealt with sexuality, violence, queerness. Initially, I reveled in this. It felt good to create discomfort in my readers, but I began to realize it was a kind of censorship, a deliberate turning away from the truth of abuse culture, violence, and feminine sexuality. So, I kept going. The stichic form has been transformative for me as a writer, as has been my exploration of new narrative poets. I love the trajectory and power in a poem with short lines and plain talk that refuses to break or pause for breath. We live in a world that is selective. We are buried in avalanches of news stories, Instagram posts, tweets, texts, new music, old music, TV, online shows, porn, writing. As a poet, I am interested in how I can possibly begin to catalogue all this cascading information even from just my own point of view. How much does depicting real life influence my work when I’m not even sure where real life ends and fantasy begins? What is my responsibility to the truth? To MY truth? I want Too Much to feel this way, true to experience, true to the way life is now. I want it to feel like too much and not enough all at once.

Anomaly in the Opacity of the Post-Reionization Intergalactic Medium in the Ly$α$ and Ly$β$ Forest

description: We measure the intergalactic medium (IGM) opacity in the Ly$α$ as well as in the Ly$β$ forest along $19$ quasar sightlines between $5.5\lesssim z_{\rm abs}\lesssim 6.1$, probing the end stages of the reionization epoch. Owing to its lower oscillator strength the Ly$β$ transition is sensitive to different gas temperatures and densities than Ly$α$, providing additional constraints on the ionization and thermal state of the IGM. A comparison of our measurements to different inhomogeneous reionization models, derived from post-processing the Nyx cosmological hydrodynamical simulation to include spatial fluctuations in the ultraviolet background (UVB) or the gas temperature field, as well as to a uniform reionization model with varying thermal states of the IGM, leads to two primary conclusions: First, we find that including the effects of spectral noise is key for a proper data to model comparison. Noise effectively reduces the sensitivity to high opacity regions, and thus even stronger spatial inhomogeneities are required to match the observed scatter in the observations than previously inferred. Second, we find that models which come close to reproducing the distribution of Ly$α$ effective optical depths nevertheless underpredict the Ly$β$ opacity at the same spatial locations. The origin of this disagreement is not entirely clear but models with an inversion in the temperature-density relation of the IGM just after reionization is completed match our measurements best, although they still do not fully capture the observations at $z\gtrsim 5.8$.

description: We propose a scheme for implementation of logical gates in a trapped ion inside a high-Q cavity. The ion is simultaneously interacting with a (classical) laser field as well as with the (quantized) cavity field. We demonstrate that simply by tuning the ionic internal levels with the frequencies of the fields, it is possible to construct a controlled-NOT gate in a three step procedure, having the ion's internal as well as motional levels as qubits. The cavity field is used as an auxiliary qubit and basically remains in the vacuum state.

description: This paper considers the evolution ofthinking about poverty since Rowntree's classic study ofpoverty in England at the turn ofthe last century. It highlights the progressive broadening ofthe definition and measurement ofpoverty, from command over market-purchased goods (income) to other dimensions ofliving standards such as longevity, literacy and healthiness, and , most recently, to concerns with risk and vulnerability, and powerlessness and lack ofvoice. The paper argues that while there is a correlation between these different dimensions, this broadening changes significantly our thinking about strategies to reduce poverty. A broader definition expands the set ofpolicies that are relevant to the reduction of poverty. But the broadening also emphasizes that poverty reducing strategies must recognize the interactions among the policies--the impact of appropriately designed combinations will be greater than the sum ofthe individual parts.
Integer Points in Arbitrary Convex Cones: The Case of the PSD and SOC Cones

description: We investigate the semigroup of integer points inside a convex cone. We extend classical results in integer linear programming to integer conic programming. We show that the semigroup associated with nonpolyhedral cones can sometimes have a notion of finite generating set. We show this is true for the cone of positive semidefinite matrices (PSD) and the second-order cone (SOC). Both cones have a finite generating set of integer points, similar in spirit to Hilbert bases, under the action of a finitely generated group. We also extend notions of total dual integrality, Gomory-Chvátal closure, and Carathéodory rank to integer points in arbitrary cones.

description: We examine the effects of entrance .fees and other factors in visitation to U.S. national park areas under two partially competing hypotheses: 1) fees are significant explanatory variables; and 2) individual area attributes are the primary determinants of visitation rates. (National park areas include natural protected areas, historic areas, and other categories in the national park system). We find that areas comprising natural protected areas behaved like economic substitutes for each other, and historic areas like economic complements. In addition, the results have confirmed the importance of individual park attributes in visitation, but are equivocal on the role of entrance fees. The role of other socio-economic variables and of park size is also analyzed.

Modernization in China : the experiment of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone 1979-1984

Subjects: subject: Shenzhen Jingji Tequ (Shenzhen, Guangdong Sheng, China)
subject: Shenzhen (Guangdong Sheng, China : East) Economic policy

description: The Special Economic Zones have been designed by the Chinese Government as a two-pronged strategy in its ‘open-door’ policy: expanding exports and encouraging foreign technology imports. Also, they are intended to be test-grounds for hybrid socialistcapitalist experiments - a reflection of the country’s search for efficient methods of production to bring about the country’s much-delayed modernization. The Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, in particular, has been given a pivotal role, because it is planned to incorporate both a full -fledged economy and a well-developed urban area. Its progress, therefore, has attracted much attention. The assessments of Shenzhen’s initial performance have, however, resulted in polarized opinions. Yet a detailed evaluation of Shenzhen's progress as an export processing zone - a phenomenon similar to those in other developing countries - has not been made. Hence, this study has undertaken the task. Industrial performance and social conditions within the zones have been perennial themes of export processing zone studies. As a result, the economic progress of Shenzhen is measured in this study against its specific planning goals and directives. Particular attention is centred on industrial performance and the outward-orientation of the Zone’s economy - the twin objectives of its economic development. Then the ‘well-being’ of Shenzhen’s population, specifically income and accessibility to social goods, is canvassed. In turn, the economic and social developments are evaluated with reference to the performance of other export processing zones. Finally, Shenzhen’s initial contribution and its potential to promote modernization in China as a large coastal city possessing export processing facilities are estimated.
