subject: Alcohol education

description: This research program responds to previous research in social marketing which has indicated that programs adopting social marketing principles are more effective (e.g. Carins & Rundle-Thiele, 2014; Gordon, McDermott, Stead, & Angus, 2006; Stead, Gordon, Angus, & McDermott, 2007; Truong, 2014). Social marketing principles have been used in programs directed at reducing excessive alcohol consumption in diverse contexts such as drunk driving (Rothschild, Mastin, & Miller, 2006), pregnant women (Glik, Prelip, Myerson, & Eilers, 2008) and universities (Vinci, Philen, Walch, Kennedy, Harrell, et al., 2010). Yet, the application of social marketing principles to alcohol education programs in high school settings has received limited research attention. As a result, the first research question in Study 1 inquires "To what extent have relevant social marketing principles been implemented in alcohol education programs in high school settings?"

description: We investigate the Gibbs-measures of ferromagnetically coupled continuous spins in double-well potentials subjected to a random field (our specific example being the $ϕ^4$ theory), showing ferromagnetic ordering in $d\geq 3$ dimensions for weak disorder and large energy barriers. We map the random continuous spin distributions to distributions for an Ising-spin system by means of a single-site coarse-graining method described by local transition kernels. We derive a contour- representation for them with notably positive contour activities and prove their Gibbsianness. This representation is shown to allow for application of the discrete-spin renormalization group developed by Bricmont/Kupiainen implying the result in $d\geq 3$.

description: To researchers in every discipline, Internet is quickly becoming the dominating environment to do literature studies. Commercial bibliographic databases tend to be too general, are not up-to-date and require special skills and effort to be searched. On the other hand researchers also publish on the Web and collaboratively that can create indexes of relevant publications. CUMINCAD is a bibliographic index that compiles papers related to computer aided architectural design. Implemented with a database, it allows searching and browsing in the ways usual on the Web. It provides a “historical evolution” to learn from previous efforts and draws attention to older original works that could have been ignored because they could not be found on the Web otherwise. The authors believe that CUMINCAD will help focus future CAAD research and improve the education. CUMINCAD work started in 1998 and is available at www.fagg.uni-lj.si/cumincad/. This paper focusses on the design and development of the database and presents some ideas concerning its advanced use in the analysis of research efforts.

description: Bacteria-related pathogenic diseases are one of the major health problems throughout the world. Salmonella is a genus of rod-shaped Gram-negative enterobacteria of which more than 2600 serotypes have been identified. Infection with Salmonella can cause salmonellosis, a serious bacterial toxi-infection syndrome associated with gastroenteritis, and paralyphoid and typhoid fevers. Its rapid and sensitive detection is a key to the prevention of problems related to health. This paper describes the development of antibody and DNA sensors for Salmonella detection using a microfluidic-based electrochemical system. Commercial Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella typhimurium from human stool samples were investigated using standard and nanomaterial-amplified antibody sensors. S. typhimurium could be detected down to 1 cfu mL−1. The specificity of immunoassay was tested by studying with non-specific bacteria including E. coli and S. aureus that revealed only 2.01% and 2.66% binding when compared to the target bacterium. On the other hand, the quantification of Salmonella DNA was investigated in a concentration range of 0.002–200 µM using the developed DNA biosensor that demonstrated very high specificity and sensitivity with a detection limit of 0.94 nM. Our custom-designed microfluidic sensor offers rapid, highly sensitive, and specific diagnostic assay approaches for pathogen detection.
Flavor signatures of complex anomalous $tcZ$ couplings

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: In this work we study the effects of anomalous $tcZ$ couplings. Such couplings would potentially affect several neutral current decays of $K$ and $B$ mesons via $Z$-penguin diagrams. Using constraints from relevant observables in $K$ and $B$ sectors, we find that the 2$σ$ upper bound on the branching ratio of ${\cal B}(t \to c Z)$ is $1.47 \times 10^{-5}$ for real coupling and $1.91 \times 10^{-4}$ for complex coupling. The current experimental upper bound from ATLAS and CMS collaborations on the branching ratio of $t \to c Z$ are $2.4 \times 10^{-4}$ and $4.9\times 10^{-4}$ at $95\%$ C.L., respectively. Hence the possibility of observation of $t \to c Z$ decay at the level of $10^{-4}$ would imply the anomalous couplings to be complex. Such complex couplings should also show up its presence in other related decays. We find that an order of magnitude enhancement is possible in the branching ratio of $K_L \to π^0 ν\barν$. Further, the complex $tcZ$ coupling can also provide large enhancements in many $CP$ violating angular observables in $B \to K^* μ^+ μ^-$ decay.

description: I focus on four operas premiered in Europe and the United States between 2009 and 2016 in which elements of the medieval, ritual, ancient, religious, and mystic emerge through their source material: 𝘈𝘥𝘢𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘷𝘦: 𝘈 𝘋𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘺 (2015, Norway), by Cecilie Ore and Bibbi Moslet; 𝘒𝘢𝘭î𝘭𝘢 𝘸𝘢 𝘋𝘪𝘮𝘯𝘢 (2016, France), by Moneim Adwan and Fady Jomar; 𝘓𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘩 (2009, USA) by Anthony Davis and Allan Havis, and 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘥 (𝘓𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘩) (2013, Austria), by Peter Eötvös and Albert Ostermaier. This dissertation argues that these operas, rather than seeking a renaissance or rebirth of the mythic, draw inspiration and narratives from what I am calling “distant pasts,” reimagining universal or “timeless” narratives of humanity through a specific contemporary lens in an explicit and deliberate interrogation of the political present. Mapping out different modes of staging these distant pasts in response to cultural and political change in the twenty-first century, I suggest new modes of conceiving adaptable operatic “networks of comprehension” that encompass the multiple subject positions and geographical and cultural contexts that shape opera today. Each opera is presented as a case study in a single chapter, balancing musical analyses with political, historical, and cultural critique. Interviews with “stakeholders” (composers, librettists, singers, directors), many of which I conducted, form an integral part of this process. My analyses explore these four operas’ unconventional attitudes towards time, narrative, and drama, and in probing each opera’s idiosyncratic relationship with its distant pasts, I chart the complex manifestations of recent political discourse in Europe and the United States, especially concerning the intersection of feminism, race, religion, and secularism.

Beside the (infinite-dimensional) algebra of graded forms the graded Cartan calculus, graded symplectic structure, graded vector bundles, graded connections and curvature are introduced and investigated. In particular we prove the universality of the graded derivation-based first-order differential calculus and show, that ${\bf M}(n|m)$ is a ``noncommutative graded manifold'' in a stricter sense: There is a natural body map and the cohomologies of ${\bf M}(n|m)$ and its body coincide (as in the case of ordinary graded manifolds).

description: In this paper we present CMRNet, a realtime approach based on a Convolutional Neural Network to localize an RGB image of a scene in a map built from LiDAR data. Our network is not trained in the working area, i.e. CMRNet does not learn the map. Instead it learns to match an image to the map. We validate our approach on the KITTI dataset, processing each frame independently without any tracking procedure. CMRNet achieves 0.27m and 1.07deg median localization accuracy on the sequence 00 of the odometry dataset, starting from a rough pose estimate displaced up to 3.5m and 17deg. To the best of our knowledge this is the first CNN-based approach that learns to match images from a monocular camera to a given, preexisting 3D LiDAR-map.

description: A single qubit provides sufficient computational capabilities to construct a universal quantum classifier when assisted with a classical subroutine. This fact may be surprising since a single qubit only offers a simple superposition of two states and single-qubit gates only make a rotation in the Bloch sphere. The key ingredient to circumvent these limitations is to allow for multiple data re-uploading. A quantum circuit can then be organized as a series of data re-uploading and single-qubit processing units. Furthermore, both data re-uploading and measurements can accommodate multiple dimensions in the input and several categories in the output, to conform to a universal quantum classifier. The extension of this idea to several qubits enhances the efficiency of the strategy as entanglement expands the superpositions carried along with the classification. Extensive benchmarking on different examples of the single- and multi-qubit quantum classifier validates its ability to describe and classify complex data.

description: IBEROSIRO DISTYLOS DE BIVORT & GIRIBET, 2004
A single male specimen from Algarve (cave) da Terra da Rolha, Rocha Forte, Serra de Montejunto (Estremadura, Portugal), collected by A. de Barros Machado in April 1941, and deposited at the MNHN (Paris), was described as yet another monotypic Iberian genus (de Bivort & Giribet, 2004). This species constitutes the southernmost distribution of Iberian Cyphophthalmi.
 With a length of c. 1.4 mm, similar to that of O. lusitanicus, it combines character states observed in Paramiopsalis and Odontosiro. As in Paramiopsalis, I. distylos has the coxa of the second pair of legs fused to the third coxa, a unique trait within the Sironidae. However, it shares with Odontosiro the ozophore position (which is also similar to that of Parasiro), the type of leg ornamentation, and the anal plate that is devoid of modifications.
So far the holotype remains the only known specimens for this species, despite a recent visit (May 2008) to the alleged type locality by G. Giribet. However, a male and a female of a congener have
 2 Juberthie only mentioned that the specimens were collected in Guimaraes by Coiffat in the North of Portugal. There are two localities in the North of Portugal named Guimarães, one in the Province of Braga, and another in the Province of Viseu.
been recently collected by pitfall trapping in Illano (Asturias), and the specimens were forwarded to the authors by C. Prieto after the first set of proofs of this article. These specimens will be described and discussed in a forthcoming paper.

description: Accurate identification of delirium in sepsis patients is crucial for guiding clinical diagnosis and treatment. However, there are no accurate biomarkers and indicators at present. We aimed to identify which combinations of cognitive impairment-related biomarkers and other easily accessible assessments best predict delirium in sepsis patients. One hundred and one sepsis patients were enrolled in a prospective study cohort. S100B, NSE, and BNIP3 L biomarkers were detected in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and patients’ optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD). The optimal biomarkers identified by Logistic regression are combined with other factors such as ONSD to filter out the perfect model to predict delirium in sepsis patients through Logistic regression, Naïve Bayes, decision tree, and neural network models. Among all biomarkers, compared with BNIP3 L (AUC = .706, 95% CI = .597–.815) and NSE (AUC = .711, 95% CI = .609–.813) in cerebrospinal fluid, plasma S100B (AUC = .729, 95% CI = .626–.832) had the best discrimination performance for delirium in sepsis patients. Logistic regression analysis showed that the combination of cerebrospinal fluid BNIP3 L with plasma S100B, ONSD, neutrophils, and age provided the best discrimination to cognitive impairment in sepsis patients (accuracy = .901, specificity = .923, sensitivity = .911), which was better than Naïve Bayes, decision tree, and neural network models. Neutrophils, ONSD, and cerebrospinal fluid BNIP3 L were consistently the major contributors in a few models. The logistic regression showed that the combination model was strongly correlated with cognitive dysfunction in sepsis patients.

description: A concise and efficient method for the large-scale total synthesis of oxyphyllacinol (1) has been achieved in six steps with an overall yield of 46%. Simultaneously, yakuchione-A (11) was obtained in a satisfactory yield (52%) during the process. By employing a Weinreb amide (6) as the key masonry block, yakuchione-B (13) was also constructed in a great overall yield (56%) and high purity. To overcome the challenges regarding the practical scale, high purity, and reproducibility, the synthetic route that was processed takes advantage of available materials, conventional reactions, and convenient purification methods without using column chromatography.

Later we study which numbers occur as determinants of prime alternating achiral knots, and obtain a complete result for perfect squares. Using the checkerboard coloring, then an application is given to the number of spanning trees in planar self-dual graphs. Another application are some enumeration results on achiral rational knots. Finally, we describe the leading coefficients of the Alexander and skein polynomial of alternating achiral knots.

description: PSR J1306--40 is a millisecond pulsar binary with a non-degenerate companion in an unusually long $\sim$1.097 day orbit. We present new optical photometry and spectroscopy of this system, and model these data to constrain fundamental properties of the binary such as the component masses and distance. The optical data imply a minimum neutron star mass of $1.75\pm0.09\,M_{\odot}$ (1-sigma) and a high, nearly edge-on inclination. The light curves suggest a large hot spot on the companion, suggestive of a portion of the pulsar wind being channeled to the stellar surface by the magnetic field of the secondary, mediated via an intrabinary shock. The H$α$ line profiles switch rapidly from emission to absorption near companion inferior conjunction, consistent with an eclipse of the compact emission region at these phases. At our optically-inferred distance of $4.7\pm0.5$ kpc, the X-ray luminosity is $\sim$10$^{33}$ erg s$^{\textrm{-1}}$, brighter than nearly all known redbacks in the pulsar state. The long period, subgiant-like secondary, and luminous X-ray emission suggest this system may be part of the expanding class of millisecond pulsar binaries that are progenitors to typical field pulsar--white dwarf binaries.

description: To evaluate the prevalence of comorbidities that may limit or prevent adherence to topical ocular hypotensive therapy in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG). The UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) database of primary and secondary care and prescription records was analyzed to identify patients with a first (index) diagnosis of OAG during 2016–2020. The primary care records of these patients were screened for diagnostic terms linked to prespecified (qualifying) comorbidities considered to have the potential to impact patients’ ability to instill eye drops. The prevalence of each of 10 categories of qualifying comorbidity recorded within the period from 5 years before to 2 years after the index OAG diagnosis was analyzed. A total of 100,968 patients with OAG were included in the analysis. Among the patients in the OAG cohort, 13,962 (13.8%) were aged 40–54 years, 32,145 (31.8%) were aged 55–69 years, 42,042 (41.6%) were aged 70–84 years, and 12,819 (12.7%) were aged 85+ years. Within the OAG population, 82.7%, 14.6%, and 2.7% of patients had no category, one category, and two or more categories of qualifying comorbidity, respectively. Qualifying comorbidities were most common in older patients. The most prevalent qualifying comorbidities were categorized as degenerative, traumatic, or pathological central nervous system disorder disrupting cognitive function (5.2%), movement disorder (4.4%), and low vision (4.1%). The prevalence of arthropathies and injuries affecting upper limbs (including arthritis in the hands) was 2.4%. The presence of comorbidities should be considered when determining whether eye drops are suitable treatment for glaucoma. Neurodegenerative disease affecting cognition and memory, motor disease, and low vision are common comorbidities that may impact adherence to eye drops, and affected patients may benefit from non-drop treatment modalities.

description: Computer-assisted reconstruction of no-longer existent (architectural) objects and their surroundings amounts to a “virtual comeback”. Irreversible destruction having removed identity-establishing buildings from the urban surface forever is the principal reason for re-creating them by imagination. Following the destruction during the so-called “Reichskristall-Night” of November 1938, the synagogues of the Jewish community in Vienna will only survive by means of virtual reconstruction. Sixty years later, in the commemorative year of 1998, the first synagogue reconstruction was initiated. The medium-range goal, however, aims at the reconstruction of at least ten additional synagogues as a project to be carried out in stages over a period of several years. Changes in personnel also call for a structure to be tracked down later on. This paper deals with handling of modeling in a systematic manner, taking into consideration personnel changes,aiming at a traceable data structure for subsequent use and follow-up work.

The unique theoretical stochastic game model is targeted to analyze a two-person duel-type game in the time domain. The parameters for strategic decisions including the moments of crossings, prior crossings, and the optimal number of iterations to get the highest winning chance are obtained by the compact closed joint functional. This paper also demonstrates the usage of a new time based stochastic game model by analyzing a conventional duel game model in the distance domain and briefly explains how to build strategies for an atypical business case to show how this theoretical model works.

description: We selected a sample of 28 Type 1 AGNs for which a black hole mass has been inferred using the reverberation mapping technique and single epoch scaling relations. All 28 sources show clear evidence of the "Big Blue Bump" in the optical-UV band whose emission is produced by an accretion disk (AD) around a supermassive black hole. We fitted the spectrum of these sources with the relativistic thin AD model KERRBB in order to infer the black hole masses and compared them with those from Reverberation mapping and Single epoch methods, discussing the possible uncertainties linked to such a model by quantifying their weight on our results. We find that for the majority of the sources, KERRBB is a good description of the AD emission for a wide wavelength range. The overall uncertainty on the black hole mass estimated through the disk fitting procedure is $\sim 0.45$ dex (which includes the uncertainty on fitting parameters such as e.g. spin and viewing angle), comparable to the systematic uncertainty of reverberation mapping and single epoch methods; however, such an uncertainty can be $\leq 0.3$ dex if one of the parameters of the fit is well constrained. Although all of the estimates are affected by large uncertainties, the masses inferred using the three methods are compatible if the dimensionless scale factor $f$ (linked to the unknown kinematics and geometry of the Broad Line Region) is assumed to be larger than one. For the majority of the sources, the comparison between the results coming from the three methods favors small spin values. To check the goodness of the KERRBB results, we compared them with those inferred with other models, such as AGNSED, a model that also accounts for the emission originating from an X-ray corona: using two sources with a good data coverage in the X band, we find that the masses estimated with the two models differ at most by a factor of $\sim 0.2$ dex.

description: This is a paper based on a talk given at the Warwick Symposium on Algebraic Geometry in 1996. The resolution of singularities given by F. Bogomolov and A. Pantev (arXiv:math.AG/9603019) is presented in a self-contained and "elementary" manner. The main result is that given a variety and a proper closed subvariety, there is a projective birational morphism from a smooth variety to the given variety so that the inverse image of the given closed subvariety and the exceptional locus are sub-divisors of a divisor with simple normal crossings.

description: The lifetime of the metastable 3P2 state of neon has been determined to 14.70(13) s (decay rate 0.06801(62) 1/s) by measuring the decay in fluorescence of an ensemble of Ne-20 atoms trapped in a magneto-optical trap (MOT). Due to low background gas pressure p < 5 10^-11 mbar and low relative excitation to the 3D3 state (0.5% excitation probability) operation only small corrections have to be included in the lifetime extrapolation. Together with a careful analysis of residual loss mechanisms in the MOT a lifetime determination to high precision is achieved.

description: The conventional wisdom is that a software-defined network (SDN) operates under the premise that the logically centralized control plane has an accurate representation of the actual data plane state. Unfortunately, bugs, misconfigurations, faults or attacks can introduce inconsistencies that undermine correct operation. Previous work in this area, however, lacks a holistic methodology to tackle this problem and thus, addresses only certain parts of the problem. Yet, the consistency of the overall system is only as good as its least consistent part. Motivated by an analogy of network consistency checking with program testing, we propose to add active probe-based network state fuzzing to our consistency check repertoire. Hereby, our system, PAZZ, combines production traffic with active probes to periodically test if the actual forwarding path and decision elements (on the data plane) correspond to the expected ones (on the control plane). Our insight is that active traffic covers the inconsistency cases beyond the ones identified by passive traffic. PAZZ prototype was built and evaluated on topologies of varying scale and complexity. Our results show that PAZZ requires minimal network resources to detect persistent data plane faults through fuzzing and localize them quickly while outperforming baseline approaches.

Resolution-of-identity stochastic time-dependent configuration interaction for dissipative electron dynamics in strong fields
Creators: name: Klinkusch, Stefan

Publisher: name: Freie Universität Berlin
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: 500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik::530 Physik

description: In this contribution, we introduce a method for simulating dissipative, ultrafast many-electron dynamics in intense laser fields. The method is based on the norm-conserving stochastic unraveling of the dissipative Liouville-von Neumann equation in its Lindblad form. The N-electron wave functions sampling the density matrix are represented in the basis of singly excited configuration state functions. The interaction with an external laser field is treated variationally and the response of the electronic density is included to all orders in this basis. The coupling to an external environment is included via relaxation operators inducing transition between the configuration state functions. Single electron ionization is represented by irreversible transition operators from the ionizing states to an auxiliary continuum state. The method finds its efficiency in the representation of the operators in the interaction picture, where the resolution-of-identity is used to reduce the size of the Hamiltonian eigenstate basis. The zeroth-order eigenstates can be obtained either at the configuration interaction singles level or from a time-dependent density functional theory reference calculation. The latter offers an alternative to explicitly time-dependent density functional theory which has the advantage of remaining strictly valid for strong field excitations while improving the description of the correlation as compared to configuration interaction singles. The method is tested on a well-characterized toy system, the excitation of the low-lying charge transfer state in LiCN.

description: The performance of the quantum approximate optimization algorithm is evaluated by using three different measures: the probability of finding the ground state, the energy expectation value, and a ratio closely related to the approximation ratio. The set of problem instances studied consists of weighted MaxCut problems and 2-satisfiability problems. The Ising model representations of the latter possess unique ground states and highly-degenerate first excited states. The quantum approximate optimization algorithm is executed on quantum computer simulators and on the IBM Q Experience. Additionally, data obtained from the D-Wave 2000Q quantum annealer is used for comparison, and it is found that the D-Wave machine outperforms the quantum approximate optimization algorithm executed on a simulator. The overall performance of the quantum approximate optimization algorithm is found to strongly depend on the problem instance.

Influence of the mechanical loading environment on the development of Heterotopic Ossification
Creators: name: Ramette, Martin
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Heterotopic Ossification (HO) is a debilitating disorder of the musculoskeletal system where bone formation abnormally occurs within non-osseous tissues. It has been found to affect two-thirds of the military blast-injury amputees since 2001, making it a “military epidemic”. For amputees, HO represents a severe and painful additional obstacle to their rehabilitation, with no existing satisfactory treatment option. The present work assumes that the HO forming within an amputee’s stump still responds to its loading environment similarly to healthy bone. It thus looks to investigate the interactions between HO and the stump’s loading environment in blast-related military transfemoral amputees, with the overall aim to enable improved clinical treatment through a better understanding of the disease. A previously established adaptive finite element model was utilised and significantly improved upon by fine-tuning the governing bone density adaptation rule. The “saturation effect” was also carefully implemented, a computational translation of the intrinsic physiological limitations of the cellular processes underlying bone remodelling. These modifications made the model more computationally efficient and yielded a more progressive ossification process in the simulation’s early stages, improving its physiological fidelity and bringing it closer to a more complete validation. A sensitivity analysis of the saturation effect’s key parameters further characterised its impact on the model and highlighted how it could be used in other computational bone remodelling studies. From a clinical standpoint, it appeared that the loading orientation on the stump was crucial in determining HO’s development pattern, with different loading regimens causing the formation of different clinically characteristic morphologies of HO. In particular, the model suggested that amputees with an abducted gait are more likely to develop type 2 HO, a more clinically challenging form of the disease, demonstrating how such a descriptive model can help identify at-risk patients and inform the design of prostheses or rehabilitation programs.

description: Approximate $p$-point Leibniz derivation formulas as well as interpolatory Simpson quadrature sums adapted to oscillatory functions are discussed. Both theoretical considerations and numerical evidence concerning the dependence of the discretization errors on the frequency parameter of the oscillatory functions show that the accuracy gain of the present formulas over those based on the exponential fitting approach [L. Ixaru, "Computer Physics Communications", 105 (1997) 1--19] is overwhelming.
