A compartmentalisation approach to understand microbial-host interaction in irritable bowel syndrome and short-term dietary intervention
Creators: name: Yang, Yi Yi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Our gut harbours a biosphere of microorganisms constantly responding to the environmental cues we provide for them. From what we eat to how we behave and when we get sick so can our gut microbiome. However, this is not a one-way communication, these microorganisms also work for us in regulating many aspects of our body’s biochemical, physiological and immune functions. The gut microbiome lives in different compartments of varying nutrient availabilities, chemical and physiological conditions. The highly fluctuant environment of the small intestine (SI) and the presence bile acids and oxygen render this compartment inhabitable by most species. However, Streptococcus spp. thrive in the SI because they are highly efficient at metabolising simple carbohydrates for energy. Chapter 3 showed certain strains Streptococcus spp. may be in competition with one another for the availability of nutrients in the SI. Inside the colon, these facultative anaerobes were replaced by a diverse community of obligate anaerobes capable for fermenting complex carbohydrates, proteins and even mucin glycans. These microbial communities are resilient and adaptable to short-term Western diet intervention although carbohydrate fermentation activity of the colonic microbiota was decreased as Chapter 3 showed. In Chapter 4, significant alterations in the community structure and metabolic capacity of the colonic microbiota were observed in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Lower carbohydrate fermentation and increased protein fermentation were evident in patients with constipation-predominant IBS. Diarrhoea-predominant IBS patients excreted more primary bile acids. Using multi-omics integration, a novel host-microbial co-metabolic pathway involving purine salvage was identified. Chapter 5 showed the passage of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) from the lumen to the mucosa was interrupted by the presence of a mucus layer. A diffusion dynamic for the trans- compartmental passage of SCFA was subsequently hypothesised. This thesis presents a compartmentalised view of the gut microbiome, demonstrating its unique adaptations to dietary change and that disturbances in its community structure and functional capacity underlie the pathophysiology of functional gastrointestinal disorders.

description: We present CLIPSwarm, an algorithm to generate robot swarm formations from natural language descriptions. CLIPSwarm receives an input text and finds the position of the robots to form a shape that corresponds to the given text. To do so, we implement a variation of the Montecarlo particle filter to obtain a matching formation iteratively. In every iteration, we generate a set of new formations and evaluate their Clip Similarity with the given text, selecting the best formations according to this metric. This metric is obtained using Clip, [1], an existing foundation model trained to encode images and texts into vectors within a common latent space. The comparison between these vectors determines how likely the given text describes the shapes. Our initial proof of concept shows the potential of this solution to generate robot swarm formations just from natural language descriptions and demonstrates a novel application of foundation models, such as CLIP, in the field of multi-robot systems. In this first approach, we create formations using a Convex-Hull approach. Next steps include more robust and generic representation and optimization steps in the process of obtaining a suitable swarm formation.

description: The effect of light soaking (LS) on the properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon presents many challenging puzzles. Some of them are discussed here, along with their present status. In particular the role of the heterogeneities in LS is examined. We find that for the majority of the solved as well unsolved puzzles the long range potential fluctuations arising from the heterogeneities in the films can provide answers which look quite plausible.

description: Genetic variations in the four casein genes CSN1S1, CSN2, CSN1S2, and CSN3 have obtained substantial attention since they affect the milk protein yield, milk composition, cheese processing properties, and digestibility as well as tolerance in human nutrition. Furthermore, milk protein variants are used for breed characterization, biodiversity, and phylogenetic studies. The current study aimed at the identification of casein protein variants in five domestic goat breeds from Sudan (Nubian, Desert, Nilotic, Taggar, and Saanen) and three wild goat species [Capra aegagrus aegagrus (Bezoar ibex), Capra nubiana (Nubian ibex), and Capra ibex (Alpine ibex)]. High-density capture sequencing of 33 goats identified in total 22 non-synonymous and 13 synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), of which nine non-synonymous and seven synonymous SNPs are new. In the CSN1S1 gene, the new non-synonymous SNP ss7213522403 segregated in Alpine ibex. In the CSN2 gene, the new non-synonymous SNPs ss7213522526, ss7213522558, and ss7213522487 were found exclusively in Nubian and Alpine ibex. In the CSN1S2 gene, the new non-synonymous SNPs ss7213522477, ss7213522549, and ss7213522575 were found in Nubian ibex only. In the CSN3 gene, the non-synonymous SNPs ss7213522604 and ss7213522610 were found in Alpine ibex. The identified DNA sequence variants led to the detection of nine new casein protein variants. New variants were detected for alpha S1 casein in Saanen goats (CSN1S1∗C1), Bezoar ibex (CSN1S1∗J), and Alpine ibex (CSN1S1∗K), for beta and kappa caseins in Alpine ibex (CSN2∗F and CSN3∗X), and for alpha S2 casein in all domesticated and wild goats (CSN1S2∗H), in Nubian and Desert goats (CSN1S2∗I), or in Nubian ibex only (CSN1S2∗J and CSN1S2∗K). The results show that most novel SNPs and protein variants occur in the critically endangered Nubian ibex. This highlights the importance of the preservation of this endangered breed. Furthermore, we suggest validating and further characterizing the new casein protein variants.

Concurrency in Blockchain Based Smartpool with Transactional Memory
Creators: name: Kadariya, Laxmi
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: Blockchain is the buzzword in today's modern technological world. It is an undeniably ingenious invention of the 21st century. Blockchain was first coined and used by a cryptocurrency namedBitcoin. Since then bitcoin and blockchain are so popular that every single person is taking on bitcoin these days and the price of bitcoin has leaped to a staggering price in the last year and so.Today several other cryptocurrencies have adapted the blockchain technology.
         Blockchain in cryptocurrencies is formed by chaining of blocks. These blocks are created by the nodes called miners through the process called Proof of Work(PoW). Mining Pools are formed as a collection of miners which collectively tries to solve a puzzle. However, most of the mining pools are centralized.
         P2Pool is the first decentralized mining pool in Bitcoin but is not that popular as the number of messages exchanged among the miners is a scalar multiple of the number of shares. SmartPool is a decentralized mining pool with the throughput equal to that of the traditional pool. However, the verification of blocks is done in a sequential manner.
         We propose a non-blocking concurrency mechanism in a decentralized mining pool for the verification of blocks in a blockchain. Smart contract in SmartPool is concurrently executed using a transactional memory approach without the use of locks. Since the SmartPool mining implemented in ethereum can be applied to Bitcoin, this concurrency method proposed in ethereum smart contracts can be applicable in Bitcoin as well.

description: Digital steganography or data hiding has emerged as a new area of research in connection to the communication in secured channel as well as intellectual property protection for multimedia signals. The redundancy in image representation can be exploited successfully to embed specified characteristic information with a good quality of imperceptibility. The hidden multimedia information will be communicated to the authentic user through secured channel as a part of the data. This article deals with a transform domain, block-based and signal non-adaptive/adaptive technique for inserting multimedia signals into an RGB image. The robustness of the proposed method has been tested compared to the other transform domain techniques. Proposed algorithm also shows improvement in visual and statistical invisibility of the hidden information.

description: Magnetic monopoles have provided a rich field of study, leading to a wide area of research in particle physics, solid state physics, ultra-cold gases, superconductors, cosmology, and gauge theory. So far, no true magnetic monopoles were found experimentally. Using the Aharonov-Bohm effect, one of the central results of quantum physics, shows however, that an effective monopole field can be produced. Understanding the effects of such a monopole field on its surroundings is crucial to its observation and provides a better grasp of fundamental physical theory. We realize the diffraction of fast electrons at a magnetic monopole field generated by a nanoscopic magnetized ferromagnetic needle. Previous studies have been limited to theoretical semiclassical optical calculations of the motion of electrons in such a monopole field. Solid state systems like the recently studied 'spin ice' provide a constrained system to study similar fields, but make it impossible to separate the monopole from the material. Free space diffraction helps to understand the dynamics of the electron-monopole system without the complexity of a solid state system. The use of a simple object such as a magnetized needle will allow various areas of physics to use the general dynamical effects of monopole fields without requiring a monopole particle or specific solids which have internal monopole-like properties. The experiment performed here shows that even without a true magnetic monopole particle, the theoretical background on monopoles serves as a basis for experiments and can be applied to efficiently create electron vortices. Various predictions about angular momentum and general field effects can readily be studied using the available equipment. This realization provides insights for the scientific community on how to detect magnetic monopoles in high energy collisions, cosmological processes, or novel materials.

description: The long standing controversy concerning the effect of electron - electron interaction on the electrical conductivity of an ideal graphene sheet is settled. Performing the calculation directly in the tight binding approach without the usual prior reduction to the massless Dirac (Weyl) theory, it is found that, to leading order in the interaction strength alpha =e^2/(hbar*v0), the DC conductivity sigma/sigma0=1+C*alpha is significantly enhanced with respect to the independent-electrons result sigma0, i.e. with the value C = 0.26. The ambiguity characterizing the various existing approaches is nontrivial and related to the chiral anomaly in the system. In order to separate the energy scales in a model with massless fermions, contributions from regions of the Brillouin zone away from the Dirac points have to be accounted for. Experimental consequences of the relatively strong interaction effect are briefly discussed.

description: Presentation prepared for Distinguished Lecture Series of the Center for Lifespan Psychology, Max Planck Institute for Human Development, Berlin (24th September 2024)

The realisation of widespread adoption of research best practice requires diversification of the academic workforce, not only in the transitional period, but also for the maintenance of new infrastructure and behaviours. This brings a welcome opportunity to retain talent and expand the breadth of roles in academia, with a growth in the range of career paths which can be determined to be “successful” according to an individual's own criteria. Importantly, this will increase the opportunities for skills and ambition to be cultivated in directions which fall outside of the traditional PI track, and contribute significantly to the success of our research endeavours. In this talk, I will describe my own rewarding journey to becoming a Research Technical Professional, how this has reinvigorated my passion for research, capitalised on my desire to develop others, and provided enumerate opportunities for growth and development. We recognise, however, that changes to our systems can culture are required to accommodate appropriate reward and recognition procedures which demonstrate that Research Technical Professionals are valued equally alongside traditional academic researchers. There are opportunities for both individual and collective action to support the necessary changes, and you are invited to join the progression towards a more highly skilled and technically competent research workforce.
A Taxonomy of Polynomially Solvable Shop Problems with Limited Number of Machines or Jobs
Creators: name: Darapuneni, Megha Sairam
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: Among shop scheduling problems, job shop and mixed shop are one of the most general models encompassing open shop and flow shop. Many job shop problems are NP hard, but there are numerous cases, which possess polynomial solutions when the number of jobs or the number of machines (or both) is limited.
This thesis gives an overview of methods and algorithms for solving - in polynomial time - such special shop problems, including open, flow, job shop and mixed shop. The tools used include Monge interchange, dynamic programming, greedy techniques and sweep line algorithms and the primary focus of this thesis is to give a taxonomy of such problems with their solutions. Additionally the thesis outlines a neighborhood search technique which uses the disjunctive graph model and which can be applied as a heuristic for a wide range of NP-hard shop problems.
Lung Cancer Survival Disparities in Nevada

Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women in the United States. Nevada shows moderate incidence rates of lung cancer for men but high rates for women. Little is known about the lung cancer experience and survival characteristics of the nearly 2000 new cases occurring every year in the State. The purpose of this study was to measure the extent to which geographic area of residency, gender, race, health insurance, social economic status (SES) and stage at diagnosis were associated with survival in patients diagnosed with lung cancer in Nevada. This was a retrospective population-based cohort study utilizing the Nevada Central Cancer Registry (NCCR) database for incident cases of lung cancer diagnosed in the state from 2003-2010 and followed-up through December 2011. The study population included all patients with incident cases of invasive carcinoma of the lung and bronchus, site codes C34.0, C34.3, C34.8, C34.9 and morphology codes 8000-8576. Five year cumulative survival rates were computed using the life table method stratified by race and adjusted for age. Cox proportional hazards regression was performed adjusting for region, age, gender, SES, race, tumor stage, marital status, histology, and insurance types, to examine the influence of each of these determinants on lung cancer survival in Nevada. A total of 12,962 lung cancer cases were diagnosed in Nevada during 2003-2010. The fatality of this cancer was very high with 81.9 % of the cases deceased by the end of the follow-up period. The overall age-standardized 5 year survival rate for Nevada lung cancer patients was 16.44% (95%CI 15.74-17.14). Blacks had a lower combined, age adjusted 5 year survival rate of 13.63% (95% CI 10.24-16.48) compared to the rate of Whites, 16.55 % (95% CI 15.8-17.30). However, after adjustment for all confounders, Blacks did not show an increased risk of death compared to Whites, (HR 0.99, 95% CI 0.904-1.077).
Asians (HR 0.80, 95% CI 0.71-0.89) and Hispanics (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.76-0.93) exhibited better lung cancer survival over time compared to Whites. Patients from Southern and Rural Nevada had an 8.5 % (p=0.001) and 11.3 % (p=0.008) higher risk of dying respectively, compared to patients from Northwestern Nevada. This study provides much needed baseline lung cancer survival data for Nevada. There was no lung cancer survival disparity between Blacks and Whites. The apparently better survival rates of Asians and Hispanics should be interpreted with caution as it may be due to death linkage artifacts. Disparities between different parts of the state warrants further study.
Corrugated Ware Function and Use as Identity Markers at the Harris Site

Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: This thesis examines the function of corrugated vessels and addresses pithouse and group identity through the differences in technological and design style at the Harris site (LA 1867), a Late Pithouse period (550-1000 CE) Mimbres Mogollon pithouse village. Corrugated wares have long been defined as utilitarian cooking vessels. The goal of this research is to shed more light on corrugated wares as a ceramic type that served a variety of functions outside of cooking, including a presence in ritual spheres. This research also explores the use of technological and design styles of corrugated wares to discuss individual and group identity.
Archaeological excavations point to the presence of corporate groups at the Harris site. Comparing and contrasting technological and design styles across households can add further evidence as to how households were integrating. Technological style represents the notion of how a ceramic vessel was made and this style is often taught within learning frameworks that may correspond to the proposed corporate groups. Design style describes the details of decoration added to the external surface of the vessel and can express a range of notions including clan membership, authorship, and ownership. Therefore, analyzing corrugated ware technological and design style from the Harris site can add information towards how people interacted during the Late Pithouse period.

description: In living cells, proteins combine 3D bulk diffusion and 1D sliding along the DNA to reach a target faster. This process is known as facilitated diffusion, and we investigate its dynamics in the physiologically relevant case of confined DNA. The confining geometry and DNA elasticity are key parameters: we find that facilitated diffusion is most efficient inside an isotropic volume, and on a flexible polymer. By considering the typical copy numbers of proteins in vivo, we show that the speedup due to sliding becomes insensitive to fine tuning of parameters, rendering facilitated diffusion a robust mechanism to speed up intracellular diffusion-limited reactions. The parameter range we focus on is relevant for in vitro systems and for facilitated diffusion on yeast chromatin.

description: We present modelling of X-ray polarisation spectra emerging from the two competing scenarios that are proposed to explain the broad Fe Kα line in the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15. The polarisation signature of complex absorption is studied for a partial covering scenario using a clumpy wind and compared to a reflection model based on the lamp-post geometry. The shape of the polarisation percentage and angle as a function of photon energy are found to be distinctly different between the reflection and the absorption case. Relativistic reflection produces significantly stronger polarisation in the 1-10 keV energy band than absorption. The spectrum of the polarisation angle adds additional constraints: in the absorption case it shows a constant shape, whereas the relativistic reflection scenario typically leads to a smooth rotation of the polarisation angle with photon energy. Based on this work, we conclude that a soft X-ray polarimeter on-board a small X-ray satellite may already discriminate between the absorption and the reflection scenario. A promising opportunity may arise with the X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer (XIPE) mission, which has been proposed to ESA in response to a small-size (S-class) mission call due for launch in 2017.

description: We study current carrying helical edge states in a two-dimensional topological insulator coupled to an environment of localized spins, i.e. a spin bath. The localized spins mediate elastic spin-flip scattering between the helical edge states, and we show how this induces a spin-bath magnetization for a finite current through the edge states. The magnetization appears near the boundaries of the topological insulator, while the bulk remains unmagnetized, and it reaches its maximal value in the high bias regime. Furthermore, the helical edge states remain ballistic in steady state, if no additional spin-flip mechanisms for the localized spins are present. However, we demonstrate that if such mechanisms are allowed, then these will induce a finite current decrease from the ballistic value.

description: The magnetosphere of a rotating pulsar naturally develops a current sheet beyond the light cylinder (LC). Magnetic reconnection in this current sheet inevitably dissipates a nontrivial fraction of the pulsar spin-down power within a few LC radii. We develop a basic physical picture of reconnection in this environment and discuss its implications for the observed pulsed gamma-ray emission. We argue that reconnection proceeds in the plasmoid-dominated regime, via an hierarchical chain of multiple secondary islands/flux ropes. The inter-plasmoid reconnection layers are subject to strong synchrotron cooling, leading to significant plasma compression. Using the conditions of pressure balance across these current layers, the balance between the heating by magnetic energy dissipation and synchrotron cooling, and Ampere's law, we obtain simple estimates for key parameters of the layers --- temperature, density, and layer thickness. In the comoving frame of the relativistic pulsar wind just outside of the equatorial current sheet, these basic parameters are uniquely determined by the strength of the reconnecting upstream magnetic field. For the case of the Crab pulsar, we find them to be of order 10 GeV, $10^{13} cm^{-3}$, and 10 cm, respectively. After accounting for the bulk Doppler boosting due to the pulsar wind, the synchrotron and inverse-Compton emission from the reconnecting current sheet can explain the observed pulsed high-energy (GeV) and VHE (~100 GeV) radiation, respectively. Also, we suggest that the rapid relative motions of the secondary plasmoids in the hierarchical chain may contribute to the production of the pulsar radio emission.

description: Medical image interpretation is central to most clinical applications such as disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognostication. In clinical practice, radiologists examine medical images and manually compile their findings into reports, which can be a time-consuming process. Automated approaches to radiology report generation, therefore, can reduce radiologist workload and improve efficiency in the clinical pathway. While recent deep-learning approaches for automated report generation from medical images have seen some success, most studies have relied on image-derived features alone, ignoring non-imaging patient data. Although a few studies have included the word-level contexts along with the image, the use of patient demographics is still unexplored. This paper proposes a novel multi-modal transformer network that integrates chest x-ray (CXR) images and associated patient demographic information, to synthesise patient-specific radiology reports. The proposed network uses a convolutional neural network to extract visual features from CXRs and a transformer-based encoder-decoder network that combines the visual features with semantic text embeddings of patient demographic information, to synthesise full-text radiology reports. Data from two public databases were used to train and evaluate the proposed approach. CXRs and reports were extracted from the MIMIC-CXR database and combined with corresponding patients' data MIMIC-IV. Based on the evaluation metrics used including patient demographic information was found to improve the quality of reports generated using the proposed approach, relative to a baseline network trained using CXRs alone. The proposed approach shows potential for enhancing radiology report generation by leveraging rich patient metadata and combining semantic text embeddings derived thereof, with medical image-derived visual features.

title: Fluvial Incision, Upper Plate Faulting, and Short-Term Deformation in the Southern Olympic Mountains of Washington State
Creators: name: Delano, Jaime
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2016

description:
Understanding topographic development in subduction zone forearcs requires comparison of deformation at short and long-term time intervals. We focus here on geomorphic records of uplift and incision in the Cascadia forearc of Washington State for comparison with short-term deformation driven by subduction zone coupling. We use surficial geologic mapping, optically stimulated luminescence dating, and surveyed terrace strath elevations to document fluvial incision and fault slip rates in the Wynoochee River valley in the southern Olympic Mountains. Results from 14 optically stimulated luminescence samples yield fluvial terrace age groupings of ~7-12 ka, ~14-18 ka, ~30-45 ka, and ~50-60 ka, which likely correspond to climate-modulated fluctuations in sediment supply within this repeatedly glaciated catchment. Calculated fluvial incision rates from surveyed terrace straths range between ~0.4 and 3.1 mm/yr, though incision in the upper reaches of the Wynoochee River is likely influenced by repeated valley aggradation, re-excavation, and isostatic rebound from glaciation, thereby hampering straightforward tectonic interpretation of calculation incision rates. Differential incision in the lower reaches of the river, however, is more straightforward to interpret and displays broad warping of the terrace tread and strath incision, potentially preserving a component of interseismic uplift. Terrace surfaces are vertically displaced by the active Canyon River fault, across which we estimate reverse dip-slip rates of ~0.1-0.3 mm/yr. We compare fault slip and incision results with a boundary element model constrained by GPS geodesy, estimating slip on the Canyon River fault and regional deformation in response to interseismic stress from the Cascadia subduction zone. The modeled reverse slip rates range between ~0.1-0.5 mm/yr, with lower rates of ~0.1-0.15 mm/yr near the Wynoochee River. Additionally, predicted uplift along the valley shows similar broad warping to the incision record in the lower reaches. The general agreement between observed long-term geologic record and modeled short-term deformation suggests that a portion of Cascadia interseismic strain may be permanent, manifested as fluvial incision and slip along upper-plate faults. Consistency between these signatures over time may indicate relative stability in the spatial pattern of subduction zone coupling over ~104 yr intervals.

description: We analyse the Bose-Einstein condensation process and the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition within the Gross-Pitaevskii model and their interplay with wave turbulence theory. By using numerical experiments we study how the condensate fraction and the first order correlation function behave with respect to the mass, the energy and the size of the system. By relating the free-particle energy to the temperature we are able to estimate the Berezinskii-Kousterlitz-Thouless transition temperature. Below this transition we observe that for a fixed temperature the superfluid fraction appears to be size-independent leading to a power-law dependence of the condensate fraction with respect to the system size.

description: We report on measurements of direct spin Hall effect in a lightly n-doped GaAs channel. As spin detecting contacts we employed highly efficient ferromagnetic Fe/(Ga,Mn)As/GaAs Esaki diode structures. We investigate bias and temperature dependence of the measured spin Hall signal and evaluate the value of total spin Hall conductivity and its dependence on channel conductivity and temperature. From the results we determine skew scattering and side jump contribution to the total spin hall conductivity and compare it with the results of experiments on higher conductive n-GaAs channels[Phys. Rev. Lett. 105,156602(2010)]. As a result we conclude that both skewness and side jump contribution cannot be fully independent on the conductivity of the channel.

title: Science and Strategy: How Scientific and Technical Information Are Used in Disputes Over Landslide Regulations in Seattle, WA
Creators: name: Miscolta-Cameron, Ana E.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2016

description:
This thesis investigates the ways in which scientific and technical information are used to challenge policies regarding development in landslide-prone areas in Seattle, Washington. It examines the values that underlie actor arguments within those challenges, using the theoretical lens of Science, Technology, and Society. Twelve case studies are selected from a set of 90 permitting appeals, court cases, and growth management hearings board appeals between the years of 1990 and 2015, and analyzed to identify the complex ways in which scientific information is used to further actor positions. A narrative analysis approach is used to analyze the case studies, archived news coverage, and interviews with geologists and planners in order to identify actor values and narratives. The results of this project suggest that, despite the science-centered arguments of developers and government, actor decisions are highly influenced by values. Neighbors who oppose development draw their arguments from aesthetic values; developers draw their arguments from values that center on property rights and right to accept risk; and all actors, including government, base arguments on potential economic gains or losses. What can be concluded is that despite hillside development policy being based upon science and technical knowledge, actor arguments and concerns are often based upon values, which cannot be articulated through science and technical information. Though well-resourced actors can influence policy through the leveraging of science and technical information, the prominence of values in debates about landslide regulation indicate that science-based policy approaches that do not consider values may encounter more challenges from the public.
