description: In this work, we study the advantages of using a Lucky Imaging camera for the observations of potential planetary microlensing events. Our aim is to reduce the blending effect and enhance exoplanet signals in binary lensing systems composed of an exoplanet and the corresponding parent star. We simulate planetary microlensing light curves based on present microlensing surveys and follow-up telescopes where one of them is equipped with a Lucky imaging camera. This camera is used at the Danish $1.54$-m follow-up telescope. Using a specific observational strategy, For an Earth-mass planet in the resonance regime, where the detection probability in crowded-fields is smaller, lucky imaging observations improve the detection efficiency which reaches 2 per cent. Given the difficulty of detecting the signal of an Earth-mass planet in crowded-field imaging even in the resonance regime with conventional cameras, we show that Lucky Imaging can substantially improve the detection efficiency.

description: A spectral method using associated Legendre functions with algebraic mapping is developed for a linear stability analysis of wake vortices. These functions serve as Galerkin basis functions, capturing correct analyticity and boundary conditions for vortices in an unbounded domain. The incompressible Euler or Navier-Stokes equations linearised on a swirling flow are transformed into a standard matrix eigenvalue problem of toroidal and poloidal streamfunctions, solving perturbation velocity eigenmodes with their complex growth rate as eigenvalues. This reduces the problem size for computation and distributes collocation points adjustably clustered around the vortex core. Based on this method, strong swirling $q$-vortices with linear perturbation wavenumbers of order unity are examined. Without viscosity, neutrally stable eigenmodes associated with the continuous eigenvalue spectrum having critical-layer singularities are successfully resolved. The inviscid critical-layer eigenmodes numerically tend to appear in pairs, implying their singular degeneracy. With viscosity, the spectra pertaining to physical regularisation of critical layers stretch out toward an area, referring to potential eigenmodes with wavepackets found by Mao & Sherwin (2011). However, the potential eigenmodes exhibit no spatial similarity to the inviscid critical-layer eigenmodes, doubting that they truly represent the viscous remnants of the inviscid critical-layer eigenmodes. Instead, two distinct continuous curves in the numerical spectra are identified for the first time, named the viscous critical-layer spectrum, where the similarity is noticeable. Moreover, the viscous critical-layer eigenmodes are resolved in conformity with the $Re^{-1/3}$ scaling law. The onset of the two curves is believed to be caused by viscosity breaking the singular degeneracy.

description: The core obstacle towards a large-scale deployment of autonomous vehicles currently lies in the long tail of rare events. These are extremely challenging since they do not occur often in the utilized training data for deep neural networks. To tackle this problem, we propose the generation of additional synthetic training data, covering a wide variety of corner case scenarios. As ontologies can represent human expert knowledge while enabling computational processing, we use them to describe scenarios. Our proposed master ontology is capable to model scenarios from all common corner case categories found in the literature. From this one master ontology, arbitrary scenario-describing ontologies can be derived. In an automated fashion, these can be converted into the OpenSCENARIO format and subsequently executed in simulation. This way, also challenging test and evaluation scenarios can be generated.

description: A common problem in Phase II clinical trials is the comparison of dose response curves corresponding to different treatment groups. If the effect of the dose level is described by parametric regression models and the treatments differ in the administration frequency (but not in the sort of drug) a reasonable assumption is that the regression models for the different treatments share common parameters. This paper develops optimal design theory for the comparison of different regression models with common parameters. We derive upper bounds on the number of support points of admissible designs, and explicit expressions for D-optimal designs are derived for frequently used dose response models with a common location parameter. If the location and scale parameter in the different models coincide, minimally supported designs are determined and sufficient conditions for their optimality in the class of all designs derived. The results are illustrated in a dose-finding study comparing monthly and weekly administration.

Cooling driven coagulation

description: Astrophysical gases such as the interstellar-, circumgalactic- or intracluster-medium are commonly multiphase, which poses the question of the structure of these systems. While there are many known processes leading to fragmentation of cold gas embedded in a (turbulent) hot medium, in this work, we focus on the reverse process: coagulation. This is often seen in wind-tunnel and shearing layer simulations, where cold gas fragments spontaneously coalesce. Using 2D and 3D hydrodynamical simulations, we find that sufficiently large ($\gg c_{\rm s} t_{\rm cool}$), perturbed cold gas clouds develop pulsations which ensure cold gas mass growth over an extended period of time ($\gg r / c_{\rm s}$). This mass growth efficiently accelerates hot gas which in turn can entrain cold droplets, leading to coagulation. The attractive inverse square force between cold gas droplets has interesting parallels with gravity; the `monopole' is surface area rather than mass. We develop a simple analytic model which reproduces our numerical findings.

description: AbstractContextSex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is associated with levels of total testosterone (total-T), and both total-T and SHBG are associated with metabolic status.ObjectiveWe aimed to clarify the nature of the relationship between testosterone and SHBG and improve our understanding of the relationships between testosterone, SHBG and cardio-metabolic risk. We hypothesize that, to maintain constant levels of bioavailable testosterone, the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis contributes to this homeostasis by increasing the production of gonadal testosterone through a feedback mechanism that might operate differently at different pubertal stages.MethodsWe investigated the dynamics of the relationship between SHBG, total testosterone (total-T), and body mass index (BMI) throughout puberty (from 9 to 17 years of age) using longitudinal data obtained from 507 males, members of the the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) birth cohort. The directionality of this relationship was explored by using polygenic scores of SHBG and total-T and a two-sample Mendelian Randomization in adult males (from the UK Biobank).ResultsConsistent with our hypothesis, we found a positive relationship between SHBG and total-T at 15 and 17 years of age but either no significant relationship or a negative relationship during the earlier time points. Such shifting relationships explained changes in the association between total-T and BMI. Polygenic scores of SHBG and total-T in mediation analyses and the two-sample Mendelian Randomization in adult males provided evidence supporting the effects of SHBG on total-T but also a somewhat weaker effect of total-T on SHBG.ConclusionThese results clarify the nature and directionality of the relationship between testosterone and SHBG during human puberty and adulthood, and shed new light on their possible relationship with cardio-metabolic risk.

description: Language models (LMs) have demonstrated their capability in possessing commonsense knowledge of the physical world, a crucial aspect of performing tasks in everyday life. However, it remains unclear **whether LMs have the capacity to generate grounded, executable plans for embodied tasks.** This is a challenging task as LMs lack the ability to perceive the environment through vision and feedback from the physical environment. In this paper, we address this important research question and present the first investigation into the topic. Our novel problem formulation, named **G-PlanET**, inputs a high-level goal and a data table about objects in a specific environment, and then outputs a step-by-step actionable plan for a robotic agent to follow. To facilitate the study, we establish an **evaluation protocol** and design a dedicated metric to assess the quality of the plans. Our experiments demonstrate that the use of tables for encoding the environment and an iterative decoding strategy can significantly enhance the LMs' ability in grounded planning. Our analysis also reveals interesting and non-trivial findings.

Year: 2023

description: Purpose: The purpose of this project was to evaluate the effects of an evidence-based incontinence associated dermatitis (IAD) algorithm on the occurrence rate of incontinence associated dermatitis among stepdown intensive care units in an academic tertiary care hospital.Methodology: This project used a pre-and post-intervention design and was conducted on an 8-bed stepdown unit over a total of 16-weeks. Chart reviews were conducted (8-weeks pre- and 8-weeks post-intervention) to determine the occurrence rate of IAD and to monitor compliance to IAD prevention interventions. The intervention consisted of attendance at 30-minute educational sessions on the prevention and management of incontinence associated dermatitis for all staff nurses and completion of a 10 question pre- and post-education assessment. An IAD algorithm was developed based on evidence-based recommendations made by experts in the field and found in the literature and was introduced during the educational session. The algorithm consisted of three main categories including assessing the skin, cleansing the skin with pH balanced cloth wipes, and protecting the skin with barrier cream or film and limited linen layers under the patient. Results: Thirteen staff members participated in the educational sessions. There was a statistically significant improvement in assessment scores between the pre and post assessments (t=6.5; p=<0.001). A total of 35 patients met the inclusion criteria with 23 in the pre-intervention phase and 12 in the post-intervention phase. The percentage change in the rate of incontinence associated dermatitis was -3.84%, from 52% in the pre-intervention to 50% in the post-intervention. This change was not statistically significant (x2= 0.015; p=0.903). Compliance to IAD strategies improved only slightly evidenced by 0.438% increase in the use of cloth wipes, an 0.847% increase in the use of barrier cream. However, a 123% increase in the use of barrier film. None of these were statistically significant in Chi-Square analysis. Compliance to linen layers of three or less under patients increased by 60% between the pre and post intervention time periods. Implications: The findings from this project supported the implementation of a standardized approach to the prevention and management of IAD through the use of an evidence-based algorithm which resulted in small improvements in clinical practice. Based on these results, it is recommended at the facility level that this intervention by disseminated to other nursing units and be incorporated into the standard of care for the prevention and management of IAD.

description: If dark matter resides in a hidden sector minimally coupled to the Standard Model, another particle within the hidden sector might dominate the energy density of the early universe temporarily, causing an early matter-dominated era (EMDE). During an EMDE, matter perturbations grow more rapidly than they would in a period of radiation domination, which leads to the formation of microhalos much earlier than they would form in standard cosmological scenarios. These microhalos boost the dark matter annihilation signal, but this boost is highly sensitive to the small-scale cut-off in the matter power spectrum. If the dark matter is sufficiently cold, this cut-off is set by the relativistic pressure of the particle that dominates the hidden sector. We determine the evolution of dark matter density perturbations in this scenario, obtaining the power spectrum at the end of the EMDE. We analyze the suppression of perturbations due to the relativistic pressure of the dominant hidden sector particle and express the cut-off scale and peak scale for which the matter power spectrum is maximized in terms of the properties of this particle. We also supply transfer functions to relate the matter power spectrum with a small-scale cut-off resulting from the pressure of the dominant hidden sector particle to the matter power spectrum that results from a cold hidden sector. These transfer functions facilitate the quick computation of accurate matter power spectra in EMDE scenarios with initially hot hidden sectors and allow us to identify which models significantly enhance the microhalo abundance.

description: We have developed MICROMEGAS (MICRO MEsh GASeous) detectors for detecting α particles emitted from an 241-Am standard source. The voltage applied to the ionization region of the detector is optimized for stable operation at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The energy of α particles from the 241-Am source can be varied by changing the flight path of the α particle from the 241 Am source. The channel numbers of the experimentally-measured pulse peak positions for different energies of the α particles are associated with the energies deposited by the alpha particles in the ionization region of the detector as calculated by using GEANT4 simulations; thus, the energy calibration of the MICROMEGAS detector for α particles is done. For the energy calibration, the thickness of the ionization region is adjusted so that α particles may completely stop in the ionization region and their kinetic energies are fully deposited in the region. The efficiency of our MICROMEGAS detector for α particles under the present conditions is found to be ~ 97.3 %.

description: Few data about the electroencephalogram and its calculated indices, such as the bispectral index (BIS), have been reported in rabbits. We aimed to evaluate whether a clinically stable anesthesia was mirrored by consistent and stable BIS values and to investigate the effects of modified cerebral blood supply, due to bilateral carotid clamping and re-opening, on BIS values. We also investigated the effects of fentanyl, as an antinociceptive drug, on the BIS. Sixty-eight rabbits undergoing general anesthesia for surgical creation of carotid bifurcation aneurysms were enrolled. The BIS values were recorded at nine selected time points (TPs) during each procedure and before and after fentanyl administration. The BIS values over time were compared with two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance followed by Tukey test, while the Wilcoxon signed rank test was performed to compare values at clamping and re-opening of the carotids as well as before and after fentanyl administration. The BIS values were significantly lower during anesthesia than at the end of anesthesia and at tracheal extubation; no significant differences were found among other TPs. Adequate depth of anesthesia was mirrored by consistent BIS values among rabbits, and alteration of cerebral blood supply did not modify BIS values, except once. Following fentanyl, BIS values did not change in a clinically relevant way.

description: We investigate a semiconductor nanowire-based gatemon qubit with epitaxial Al on two facets of the nanowire, allowing gate control of wire density. Two segments have the Al removed, one forming a Josephson junction and the other operating as a transistor, providing in-situ switching between dc transport and qubit operation. Gating the NW changes the bulk wire potential distribution, while gating the Josephson junction changes the number of junction modes. Both effects are revealed by the dependence of qubit frequency on parallel magnetic field. A detailed model of the wire and junction yields behavior consistent with experiment. In the multi-mode regime, fluctuations in qubit frequency are considerably smaller than the theoretical "universal" value, also smaller than numerics, and consistent with previous measurements of fluctuating critical current.

description: Autism, also known as Autism Spectrum Disorder (or ASD), is a neurological disorder. Its main symptoms include difficulty in (verbal and/or non-verbal) communication, and rigid/repetitive behavior. These symptoms are often indistinguishable from a normal (control) individual, due to which this disorder remains undiagnosed in early childhood leading to delayed treatment. Since the learning curve is steep during the initial age, an early diagnosis of autism could allow to take adequate interventions at the right time, which might positively affect the growth of an autistic child. Further, the traditional methods of autism diagnosis require multiple visits to a specialized psychiatrist, however this process can be time-consuming. In this paper, we present a learning based approach to automate autism diagnosis using simple and small action video clips of subjects. This task is particularly challenging because the amount of annotated data available is small, and the variations among samples from the two categories (ASD and control) are generally indistinguishable. This is also evident from poor performance of a binary classifier learned using the cross-entropy loss on top of a baseline encoder. To address this, we adopt contrastive feature learning in both self supervised and supervised learning frameworks, and show that these can lead to a significant increase in the prediction accuracy of a binary classifier on this task. We further validate this by conducting thorough experimental analyses under different set-ups on two publicly available datasets.

description: The recent discovery of magnetic skyrmion lattices initiated a surge of interest in the scientific community. Several novel phenomena have been shown to emerge from the interaction of conducting electrons with the skyrmion lattice, such as a topological Hall-effect and a spin-transfer torque at ultra-low current densities. In the insulating compound Cu2OSeO3, magneto-electric coupling enables control of the skyrmion lattice via electric fields, promising a dissipation-less route towards novel spintronic devices. One of the outstanding fundamental issues is related to the thermodynamic stability of the skyrmion lattice. To date, the skyrmion lattice in bulk materials has been found only in a narrow temperature region just below the order-disorder transition. If this narrow stability is unavoidable, it would severely limit applications. Here we present the discovery that applying just moderate pressure on Cu2OSeO3 substantially increases the absolute size of the skyrmion pocket. This insight demonstrates directly that tuning the electronic structure can lead to a significant enhancement of the skyrmion lattice stability. We interpret the discovery by extending the previously employed Ginzburg-Landau approach and conclude that change in the anisotropy is the main driver for control of the size of the skyrmion pocket. This realization provides an important guide for tuning the properties of future skyrmion hosting materials.

description: This study seeks to alter our understanding of Keller’s realism by problematizing the act of reading within fiction. The story of reading in Keller’s fiction is a self-conscious meditation on the schism between life and its literary representation—and it emphasizes the incapacity of that representation to actually and substantially influence the life it is based on. This has consequences for the didactic writer. The act of reading here generally involves a collision between fiction and its other and a move (or tragic failure to move) toward an acceptance and affirmation of the non-correspondence between life and literature, a process that renders moral didacticism a quixotic project. This position runs counter to the prevailing view of Keller as a consciously didactic author who tried to create a credible copy of reality in order to revise and repair the real world by inspiring readers to make the depicted improvements in their nonfictional universe.

Il protocollo consente poi di definire e calibrare dei difetti equivalenti da includere nei modelli strutturali in modo da includere gli effetti della corrosione nella valutazione del comportamento strutturale. Tramite questo approccio � possibile valutare il decadimento delle prestazioni nel tempo della struttura; tale previsione consente di definire la vita residua della struttura, i criteri e i tempi per la gestione del piano di manutenzione e indicazioni di massima sulla fattibilit� dell?intervento di recupero o sulla necessit� di demolizione. Il protocollo rappresenta quindi uno strumento scientifico a supporto del processo decisionale per il recupero delle strutture esistenti.

description: Gas flow in shale is associated with both organic matter (OM) and inorganic matter (IOM) which contain nanopores ranging in size from a few to hundreds of nanometers. In addition to the noncontinuum effect which leads to an apparent permeability of gas higher than the intrinsic permeability, the surface diffusion of adsorbed gas in organic pores also can influence the apparent permeability through its own transport mechanism. In this study, a generalized lattice Boltzmann model (GLBM) is employed for gas flow through the reconstructed shale matrix consisting of OM and IOM. The Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is used to assign the pore size distribution to each component, and the dusty gas model (DGM) and generalized Maxwell-Stefan model (GMS) are adopted to calculate the apparent permeability accounting for multiple transport mechanisms including viscous flow, Knudsen diffusion and surface diffusion. Effects of pore radius and pressure on permeability of both IOM and OM as well as effects of Langmuir parameters on OM are investigated. Moreover, the effect of total organic content and distribution on the apparent permeability of the reconstructed shale matrix is also studied. It is found that the distribution of OM and IOM has a negligible influence on apparent permeability, whereas the total organic content and the surface diffusion play a significant role in gas transport in shale matrix.

description: We analyze the possibility that several instability points may be formed, due to the Paczyński mechanism of violation of mechanical equilibrium, in the orbiting matter around a supermassive Kerr black hole. We consider recently proposed model of ringed accretion disk, made up by several tori (rings) which can be corotating or counterrotating relative to the Kerr attractor due to the history of the accretion process. Each torus is governed by the general relativistic hydrodynamic Boyer condition of equilibrium configurations of rotating perfect fluids. We prove that the number of the instability points is generally limited and depends on the dimensionless spin of the rotating attractor.

Dynamics-informed deconvolutional neural networks for super-resolution identification of regime changes in epidemiological time series

description: Inferring the timing and amplitude of perturbations in epidemiological systems from their stochastically spread low-resolution outcomes is as relevant as challenging. It is a requirement for current approaches to overcome the need to know the details of the perturbations to proceed with the analyses. However, the general problem of connecting epidemiological curves with the underlying incidence lacks the highly effective methodology present in other inverse problems, such as super-resolution and dehazing from computer vision. Here, we develop an unsupervised physics-informed convolutional neural network approach in reverse to connect death records with incidence that allows the identification of regime changes at single-day resolution. Applied to COVID-19 data with proper regularization and model-selection criteria, the approach can identify the implementation and removal of lockdowns and other nonpharmaceutical interventions with 0.93-day accuracy over the time span of a year.

Tailored Optical Polarization in Nano-Structured Metamaterials

description: A very efficient method for the calculation of the effective optical response of nano-structured composite systems allows the design of metamaterials tailored for specific optical polarization properties. We use our method to design 2D periodic arrays of sub-wavelength dielectric inclusions within nanometric supported metallic thin films which behave as either an almost perfect linearly dichroic system, as a controllable source of circular polarized light, as a system with a large circular dichroism, or as a circular polarizer. All of these systems may be tuned over a wide energy range.

Thermodynamics of 5D Charged Rotating Black Holes: A Counterterms Treatment

description: We show that the calculation of the thermodynamic volume in the bulk theory is sensitive to conformal anomalies in the dual CFT, and present a new way of calculating it when the conformal anomalies do not vanish. This solves the issue where the use of the counterterms subtraction method appears to break the first law and Smarr's relation in extended phase-space. This is shown explicitly in the case of charged rotating black holes in five-dimensional minimal gauged supergravity (Chong et al. in Phys Rev Lett 95:161301, 2005), where we use the counterterms method to study the thermodynamics of the solution. Among the bulk quantities calculated using the counterterms method are the on-shell action, total mass, and angular momenta of the solution. All these quantities are consistent with previous calculations made using other methods. For the boundary CFT, we calculate the renormalized stress tensor, conformal anomaly, and Casimir energy. Using the Papadimitriou-Skenderis analysis (Papadimitriou and Skenderis in J. High Energy Phys. 08:004, 2005), we show that the mass calculated via the counterterms method satisfies the first law of black hole thermodynamics. To discuss extended thermodynamics, we extend the definition of the thermodynamic volume to cases with conformal anomalies using a procedure similar to that of Papadimitriou-Skenderis. We show that this volume correctly accounts for extra terms due to boundary metric variation.

description: We demonstrate that the total energy of electromagnetic field in the Bardeen and Ayón-Beato-García singularity-free models is equal to the mass parameter $M$, being therefore independent of the charge parameter $Q$. Our result is fully congruent with the original idea of Born and Infeld to use nonlinear electrodynamics for proving the electromagnetic nature of mass.

description: Normal aging has variable effects on language comprehension, perhaps because comprehension mechanisms vary in their dependence on network structure versus network dynamics. To test claims that processing dynamics are more affected by age than structure, we used EEG to measure and compare the impact of neighborhood size, a core measure of the structure of the lexico-semantic network, and repetition, a simple measure of processing dynamics, on single word processing. Older adults showed robust effects of neighborhood size on the N400, comparable to those elicited by young adults, but reduced effects of repetition. Furthermore, older adults with greater verbal fluency, print exposure, and reading comprehension showed greater repetition effects, suggesting some older adults can maintain processing dynamics that are similar to those of young adults. Thus, the organizational structure of the semantic network seems stable across normal aging, but (some) older adults may struggle to adjust activation states within that network.
