description: Aim of the study: To investigate the mutation frequency of SPG11, SPG15, SPG5 and SPG7 in China. Materials and methods: We have scanned the whole exons of KIAA1840, ZFYVE26, SPG7 and CYP7B1 genes in a group of 36 unrelated Chinese ARHSP families. Results: SPG11 mutations were found in 33.33% (12/36) of ARHSP patients in our study, and no mutation was identified in SPG15, SPG5 or SPG7 genes. Among the SPG11 mutations detected, c.1755_1758delAGCA/p. P585PfsX623, c.29832984delTA/p.L934LfsX1010, c.1845_1848delGTCT/p.F617Lfs*5, c.6478+1G>T and c.3662_3665delTCAA/p.I1221RfsX1230 were novel mutations, they all introduced premature termination codons which were predicted to leading to the absence of the spastacsin protein in the patients' cells. All the SPG11 patients in our study presented with spastic paraparesis and/or mental impairment at initial time, and most patients showed thin corpus callosum (TCC) and white matter abnormalities (WMA) in brain MRI. After years' duration, they gradually manifested with dysarthria, dysphagia, peripheral neuropathy, amyotrophy, skeletal deformity, cerebellar signs, ophthalmoplegia, decreased vision, sphincter disturbance and tremor. Conclusions: SPG11 was suspected to be the most common subtype of ARHSP in China, whereas SPG15, SPG5 or SPG7 are rare. The core symptoms of Chinese SPG11 patients showed no difference when compared to SPG11 in western countries, and clinical heterogeneity also existed in our SPG11 patients. We suggested that ARHSP patients with mental impairment, especially combined with TCC, should be excluded SPG11 first in China.

description: I am interested in depositing and publicating data that support the findings of my research in this public repository. It is a case report about the use of Density Spectral Array of BIS VISTA Monitoring System in a functional hemispherectomy. The Bilateral Bispectral index (BIS) was designed to allow the user to record and display four channels of EEG; two from each side of the brain. This monitor was used to detect changes in EEG, and in the power spectrum distribution using the density spectral array (DSA) in both hemispheres1. Functional hemispherectomy (FH) is a surgical technique used in pediatric population to treat drug-resistant epilepsy caused by extensive hemispheric lesions. There are few cases in the literature about FH in adults but there aren’t about the use of DSA in this surgery. We present the case of a patient scheduled for a right FH to treat epilepsy where the DSA provides information about the depth of anaesthesia and sedation, and it was helpful for monitoring the effectiveness of the surgery.

title: Quality-aware predictive modelling & inferential analytics at the network edge
Creators: name: Harth, Natascha Sabrina
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: The Internet of Things has grown by an enormous amount of devices over the later years. With the upcoming idea of the Internet of Everything the growth will be even faster. These embedded devices are connected to a central server, e.g. the Cloud. A major task is to send the generated data for further analysis and modelling to this central collection point. The devices’ network and deployed system are constrained due to energy, bandwidth, connectivity, latency, and privacy. To overcome these constraints, Edge Computing has been introduced to enable devices performing computation near the source. With the increase of embedded devices and the Internet of Things, the continuous data transmission between devices and Central Locations reached an infeasible point in which efficient communication and computational offloading are required. Edge Computing enables devices to compute lightweight algorithms locally to reduce the raw-data transmission of the network. The quality of predictive analytics tasks is of high importance as user satisfaction and decision making depend on the outcome. Therefore, this thesis investigates the ability to perform predictive analytics and model inference in Edge Devices with communication-efficient, latency-efficient, and privacy-efficient procedures by focusing on quality-aware results. The first part of the thesis focuses on reducing data transmission between the device and the central location. Two possible energy-efficient methodologies to control the data forwarding are introduced: prediction-based and time-optimised. Both data forwarding strategies aim to maintain the Central Location’s quality of analytics by introducing reconstruction policies. The second part provides a mechanism to enable edge-centric analytics towards latency-efficient network optimisation. One aspect shows the importance of locally generated analytical models in Edge Devices embracing each device’s data subspace. Furthermore, two possible ensemble-pruning methods are introduced that allow the aggregation of individual models at the Central Location towards accurate query predictions. The conclusion chapter presents the importance of privacy-efficient local learning and analytics in Edge Devices. With the aid of Federated Learning, it is possible to train analytical models for privacy-preserving data locally. Furthermore, for continuous changing environments, the parallel deployment of personalisation and generalisation for quality aware predictions is highlighted and demonstrated through experimental evaluation.

description: The development that will follow aims at understanding the extent to which the advisory activity of the International Court of Justice contributes to the development of international law. This development takes place in different forms, whether it is in the clarification of obscure points of international law, the creation of new rules of interpretation and rules of law, or again to some extent, in the participation to international dispute settlements. After determining the different forms of action of the ICJ in its advisory proceedings, the second part of the dissertation will address the question of implementation of the ICJ’s advisory opinions.

multimodal

description: Multimodal machine translation involves drawing information from more than one modality (text, audio, and visuals), and is an emerging subject within the machine translation community. In MeMAD, multimodal translation is of particular interest in facilitating cross-lingual multimodal content retrieval, and is one of the main focuses of WP4. Though multimodal machine translation efforts have been emerging since the early 1990s, there has not been research on a large scale until the last decade. Especially prominent are the multimodal tasks of spoken language translation and image caption translation, exploiting audio and visual modalities respectively. Both of these tasks are championed by evaluation campaigns, acting as competitions to stimulate research and to serve as a regulated platform investigating evaluation methodologies. So far, one multimodal machine translation system has been developed within WP4 of the MeMAD project for either task, and especially the image caption translation system had great success. In this deliverable, we present a survey of the state of the art in machine translation with an emphasis on multimodal tasks and systems. Later, we describe our own multimodal machine translation efforts carried out in WP4 within the first year of MeMAD. Finally, to conclude our report, we discuss our plans of tackling video subtitle and audio description translations as the next steps in WP4.

description: Helminths infections remain a major problem in medical and public health. In this report, atom-based 2D bilinear indices, a TOMOCOMD-CARDD (QuBiLs-MAS module) molecular descriptor family and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) were used to find models that differentiate among anthelmintic and non-anthelmintic compounds. Two classification models obtained by using non-stochastic and stochastic 2D bilinear indices, classified correctly 86.64% and 84.66%, respectively, in the training set. Equation 1(2) correctly classified 141(135) out of 165 [85.45%(81.82%)] compounds in external validation set. Another LDA models were performed in order to get the most likely mechanism of action of anthelmintics. The model shows an accuracy of 86.84% in the training set and 94.44% in the external prediction set. Finally, we carry out an experiment to predict the biological profile of our ‘in-house’ collections of indole, indazole, quinoxaline and cinnoline derivatives (∼200 compounds). Subsequently, we selected a group of nine of the theoretically most active structures. Then, these chemicals were tested in an in vitro assay and one good candidate (VA5-5c) as fasciolicide compound (100% of reduction at concentrations of 50 and 10 mg/L) was discovered.

description: Objective: Endoscopic transpapillary or endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided stent placement is used for nonresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction. We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate endoscopic biliary drainage in patients with duodenal obstruction. Methods: We included consecutive patients who underwent endoscopic biliary drainage combined with a duodenal stent at 16 referral centers in four Asian countries. The primary outcome was time to recurrent biliary obstruction (TRBO). We assessed TRBO according to the sequence of biliary and duodenal obstruction (group 1/2/3, biliary obstruction first/concurrent/duodenal obstruction first, respectively) or the location of duodenal obstruction (type I/II/III, proximal to/affecting/distal to the ampulla, respectively). We also evaluated functional success and adverse events. Results: We included 110 patients (group1/2/3, 67/29/14 patients; type I/II/III, 45/46/19 patients; endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography [ERCP]/EUS-guided choledocoduodenostomy/EUS-guided hepaticogastrostomy, 90/10/10 patients, respectively). The median TRBO of all cases was 450 days (interquartile range, 212–666 days) and functional success was achieved in 105 cases (95%). The TRBO did not differ significantly by the timing or location of duodenal obstruction (p = .30 and .79, respectively). The TRBO of metal stents (n = 96) tended to be longer compared with plastic stents (n = 14, p = .083). Compared with ERCP, EUS-guided biliary drainage was associated with a higher rate of adverse events. Conclusion: Transpapillary or transmural endoscopic biliary drainage with a duodenal stent was effective, irrespective of the timing or location of duodenal obstruction. A prospective study is required considering the tradeoff of technical success rate, stent patency, and adverse events (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT02376907).

description: Bottom sediment quality in Hamilton Harbour was assessed as part of a long-term research and monitoring program over a period of three decades in order to support remedial activities. Sampling locations reflected a range of shoreline activities and sources of chemical contamination to the harbour. An assessment of temporal trends in metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) indicate that concentrations of all three classes of contaminants have decreased in sediments in most areas of the harbour since the period 1990 – 2000; however, the Windermere Arm area impacted by historical industrial activities along the southeastern shoreline area of the harbour was an exception, as trends in some metals and PCBs showed overall increases. Assessment of spatial distributions of contaminants and the associated PAH and PCB profiles showed that Randle Reef and Windermere Arm continue to be significant contributors to harbour-wide contamination by PAHs and PCBs, respectively. Continuation of the program after remedial activities should provide an assessment of the overall efficacy of management actions to improve environmental quality in Hamilton Harbour.
title: The quantum optics of metamaterials
Creators: name: Messinger, Anette
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: The interaction of light and matter is a widely studied field in physics: Both quantum mechanical and classical effects have been treated to a large extent in theoretical studies but also in a wide range of experiments. One particularly interesting manifestation of such interactions are macroscopic materials with a linear response to the light field. This can be either a response due to the electric or due to the magnetic field, depending on the internal structure of the medium. However, the magnetic response is typically much weaker than the electric response and magnetic effects have been neglected in the majority of theoretical considerations. The recently emerging field of metamaterials brings new possibilities of tailoring the electromagnetic properties of a medium, which gives rise to a class of materials with both electric and magnetic responses that have not been observed in naturally occurring materials - hence the name metamaterial. For such materials the theories developed for purely dielectric media, materials with no magnetic response, do not hold anymore. The main goal of this thesis is to generalize electromagnetic theory, especially for the interaction of the light field with electric and magnetic dipoles, to arbitrary magneto-dielectric media. In particular, this includes lossy magnetic materials and biaxial anisotropic media, but also a general investigation of the nature of light-matter interactions from the magnetic point of view. Magnetic and electric effects are often treated very differently. It is my aim to show the similarities, and immense symmetry between them, and therefore always treat electric and magnetic effects side by side whenever possible, and wherever a theory is only properly derived for the electric quantities, I shall complement the magnetic analogies to fill these gaps. The second part of this thesis covers another important aspect of light-matter interaction, the transfer of coherence between atoms and the electromagnetic field inside a cavity, which is of particular importance in the context of quantum thermodynamics and the resource theory of coherence. This work is not directly linked to the main body of the thesis, but builds on the same theoretical framework of light-matter interaction in the Jaynes-Cummings model. We examine the catalytic nature of quantum optical coherence, in particular, the degradation of a coherent state in the cavity as coherence is transferred to a sequence of atoms through a Jaynes-Cummings interaction. In comparison with an earlier, rather artificial proposal of the catalytic creation of coherence, we investigate the role of correlations and the robustness of this more natural protocol of coherence transfer.
title: Probabilistic mathematical modelling for security risk assessment
Creators: name: Kolev, Denis
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: This thesis presents a novel framework for security risk assessment (SRA) and identification, comprising mathematical algorithms and a family of models. Recently, due to the growing incidence of cyber-attacks and cyber-fraud, as well as terrorist attacks and other adversarial activities, qualitative and comprehensive SRA and security risk management have become increasingly important. For large-scale systems, SRA and related data processing tasks are challenging due to the large amount of available information, as well as the diversity and complexity of data sources. However, SRA relies mainly on procedures that, despite being well-formalised, are manual, which introduces the “human factor" as early as the system design stages. The existence of multiple possible threats, along with the variability of the information received from different sensors, has increased the complexity of situation awareness analysis, which often results in scenarios where security officers (operators) are overwhelmed with data and, in certain cases, a high false positive rate. The primary motivation behind this work was to develop a general mathematical approach to SRA based on statistical data processing, data fusion techniques, and game theoretic models. The proposed framework is based on a slight adjustment of the existing SRA methodology for threat modelling, augmented by additional mathematical formalisations. In general, two primary models are presented as the main contribution: • “Static Model" for SRA, which is applicable at the stage of designing the protection of the considered system. • “Dynamic Model" for the processing of generic security-related data, which is applied when the system is in operation. Both models use graph theory as a basis. The static model uses game theory for optimal protection design, while the dynamic model applies Bayesian inference techniques for “online" data processing.
title: Cultural heritage: property, personhood, and international returns
Creators: name: Cacot, Margaret Fleming
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: This thesis focuses on international claims for return of corporeal movable cultural heritage and the problems potential claimants face when seeking return of their heritage, particularly when resort is had to the traditional rules of private international law. It examines the difficulty of defining cultural heritage within a proprietary context and looks to the principle of legal personhood as an alternative way to govern claims for return. To draw inspiration, it examines the attribution of personhood to environmental objects, and looks to Bumper Development Corporation v The Metropolitan Police and Ors ([1991] 1 WLR 1362) in terms of what attribution of personhood might mean for extraterritorial recognition in the context of private international law. While the force of attributing legal personhood to objects of cultural heritage is largely rhetorical, it helps to change domestic attitudes surrounding the protection of cultural heritage. In particular, viewing cultural heritage through the lens of personhood, as not mere property but a type of ‘quasi-person,’ justifies an analogy to the successful return mechanism, the 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. The Convention is examined as it might influence claims for return of objects of cultural heritage. The thesis proposes suggestions for an improved cultural heritage return mechanism.

description: This report synthesises the main findings from the value chain- and governance analysis in FarFish, and point at some potential policy changes that could improve governance of the SFPAs and the high seas fisheries of the European external fishing fleet.
 This is the final deliverable from work package 3 (WP3) of the FarFish project, containing lessons learned and policy recommendations based on the work conducted in T3.1 Evaluation of governance structures and T3.2 Value chain analysis. The overall objective of FarFish is to improve knowledge on and management of EU fisheries outside Europe, while contributing to sustainability and long-term profitability. To this end, WP3 has conducted value chain analysis and evaluations of the governance structure of the EU external fishing fleet in the selected case studies. The studies have provided insights to how these fisheries are managed and conducted, and how the fisheries are utilized and are contributing to the seafood supply, including to the European market and partner countries.
 This report synthesises the main findings from these studies. Based on the lessons learned as well as interaction with other areas within the project, we discuss recommendations for potential policy changes that could improve governance of the SFPAs and European high seas fisheries. The fisheries and value chains analysed are highly professional and are based on the different companies’ commercial considerations. The recommendations to improve the performance of these companies or to achieve wider socio-economic goals are therefore directed at the potential for changes and improvements by way of regulations. The suggestions would in most cases require further elaboration and discussions, hence the term potential.
Microbial - Planktonic foodweb dynamics of a eutrophic embayment of Lake Ontario: Hamilton Harbour

description: Hamilton Harbour, located on the western end of Lake Ontario, has a long history of cultural eutrophication as well as industrial contamination. We explored the structure and function of the microbial – planktonic foodweb during the growing seasons (May – October) of 2004 and 2006 in order to consider the flow of autochthonous production from lower to higher trophic levels. Our analyses included microscope based assessments of bacteria, heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNF), ciliates, phytoplankton and zooplankton as well as radioisotope based measurements of primary productivity and bacterial growth. While routine measures of total phosphorus (avg: 25 – 33 µg l−1) and chlorophyll a (avg: 12 – 15 µg l−1) were indicative of eutrophy, mean phytoplankton biomass in 2004 (2.0 g m−3) and 2006 (2.2 g m−3) suggested mesotrophic conditions. However, the appearance of algal blooms in the summer of 2006 was an obvious indicator of cultural eutrophication. With respect to the microbial – planktonic foodweb, the organic carbon pool increased from a mean of 757.5 mg C m−3 in 2004 to 1160.3 mg C m−3 in 2006 and this increase was almost evenly split between autotrophs (198.7 mg C m−3) and heterotrophs (204.1 mg C m−3). The increased autotrophic carbon is readily attributable to the observed algal blooms driven by warmer temperatures and higher concentrations of soluble reactive phosphorus. However, the increase in heterotrophic carbon, primarily HNF, was apparent from the earliest observations in 2006 and remained consistently high throughout the year. We hypothesize that the increased heterotrophic carbon was the consequence of increased allochthonous carbon being shunted through the microbial foodweb; the energy generated was not likely transferred to zooplankton and passed on to higher trophic levels. More research into the dynamics of allochthonous and autochthonous carbon in eutrophic environments is called for.

title: Next generation Fourier ptychographic microscopy: computational and experimental techniques
Creators: name: Aidukas, Tomas
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: Fourier ptychography is a recently developed computational imaging technique, which enables gigapixel image reconstruction from multiple low-resolution measurements. The technique can be implemented on simple, low-quality microscopes to achieve unprecedented image quality by exchanging optical design complexity with computational complexity. While developments have been made, demonstrations typically use well-calibrated, highperformance microscopes. Therefore, the real world performance and true benefits of(lowcost) Fourier ptychography still need to be demonstrated in out-of-lab environments where unforeseen problems are not unlikely. In this thesis, I will demonstrate how to utilise Fourier ptychography in a fast, robust and cheap manner. Two experimental prototypes will be introduced, one of them being an ultra-low-cost 3D printed microscope capable of wide-field sub-micron resolution imaging. Another prototype was built to demonstrate high-speed gigapixel imaging, capable of 100-megapixel, 1µm resolution image capture in under 3 seconds. Novel image formation models and their refinements were developed to correct the incomplete conventional model. These include partial coherence of the illumination, deviation from the plane-wave assumption, and spatially varying aberrations. Lastly, Experimental work was also heavily supplemented by novel calibration and reconstruction algorithms. Theoretical work outlined in this thesis enables the use of tilted, off-axis optical components, alleviating typically assumed parallel plane optical geometry. Optical precision requirements can also be relaxed due to novel robust calibration algorithms. As a result, low-cost 3D printed microscopes can be used.

description: With the fast development of nuclear power, low-level radioactive wastewater (LLRW) treatment will meet more severe requirements. Continuous electrodeionization (CEDI) is a novel technology to treat LLRW with advantages of lower level effluent and smaller waste production. In this study, the influences of ion exchange resins (IERs) in the concentrate and dilute compartments on the performance of CEDI were investigated. The three stacks filled with anion exchange resins in the dilute compartments were more efficient for boron removal than metal ions, while the three stacks filled with cation exchange resins were more efficient for the removal of metal ions than boron. The stack filled with a type of mixed IERs was good at removing both metal ions and boron. The correlation analysis showed that no significant correlations were found between ion exchange capacities or ion exchange kinetics with the decontamination factors of metal ions. The removal ratios of boron were positively correlated with the ion exchange capacities, but were not correlated with the ion exchange kinetics. The results can guide the CEDI stack design by filling different IERs for different purposes.

discourse-aware
multimodal

description: Machine translation is conventionally based on processing isolated textual sentences, disregarding the broader context around them, as well as any cues that are not explicit in text. This formulation is unable to reliably determine referential discourse phenomena such as anaphora and connectives, which creates a barrier to the production of cohesive and coherent language. While exploiting the audio and visual modalities provide a window into the context, machine translation must also venture beyond the sentence, and become aware of the discourse in the entire document. There has been a surge of research in discourse-aware machine translation in the last two decades, primarily focusing on the design and evaluation of document-level machine translation systems, and expanding the textual context in machine translation architectures without compromising computational efficiency. Following the recent advances, we have likewise put substantial effort into the development of discourse-aware machine translation systems, albeit to no considerable improvement. In this deliverable, we start by breaking down the most salient phenomena to explain their relevance, and presenting a brief survey of successful approaches to discourse-aware machine translation, followed by descriptions of the models we have developed within the WP4 of the MeMAD project. We dedicate the rest of the report to our analysis of user evaluation data collected in an experiment where professional translators tested post-editing of machine translation for subtitling. Finally, we conclude our report with discussions of future directions in utilising dedicated subtitle translation systems, speaker and dialogue information, and end-to-end speech translation models in the last year of the project.

description: Current scalar coronagraph focal plane mask designs are performance-limited by chromaticity. We investigate the effects of adding central Roddier and dual zone phase dimples to scalar vortex masks to improve broadband performance by suppressing the chromatic stellar leakage. We present hybrid designs with radial phase dimples integrated with the sawtooth vortex, wrapped vortex, and cosine phase mask. We show that using these dimples, it is possible to substantially improve the broadband contrast performance of scalar phase masks. We also show that although adding a phase dimple does not increase the sensitivity to low-order aberrations, suppressing the central leakage of scalar vortex coronagraphs does not restore the aberrations sensitivities to their notional state.

In general, Open Context is a dynamic and frequently updated database that integrates research data from a growing number of sources. However, Open Context also stores some static and unchanging, externally stored "Data Table" files. Unless otherwise indicated, the content of Data Table files (such as the resource deposited here) will not change even after updates to the Open Context database.
Deposition File Overview
This archival deposit includes two files, in two formats:

CSV: The 42-pkap-main-survey-unit-descriptions.csv contains the tabular data content for this resource in a CSV format.
JSON: The 42-pkap-main-survey-unit-descriptions.json provides additional metadata about the tabular data content for this resource in a JSON-LD format.
Open Context is an open-source Python application built with the Django framework (see source code and Docker deployment code). To manage a wide variety of archaeological and related data, Open Context organizes information using a very abstract, graph-based schema. Open Context implements this schema using a Postgres relational database and the Django "Object Relational Model" (ORM).
Because Open Context internally maintains data using a very abstract schema, data dumps directly from this schema would be difficult to understand and use. Therefore, Open Context makes select datasets (like this) available in more easily understood tabular expressions. A considerable amount of application logic in Open Context generated the more expressive tabular representation of data. This tabular data output from Open Context is meant to be considered as a static and unchanging "snapshot" of data selected for output at a specific time.

title: Development and assessment of the reliability and validity of a proposed Medi-Socio AcciMap Taxonomy approach for analysing IT-related incidents in healthcare
Creators: name: Igene, Oseghale Osezua
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: The thesis argues that synthesising a domain-specific classification scheme/taxonomy with Branford’s standardised AcciMap approach will improve the reliability and validity of its outcomes. Based on Waterson et al. (2017)’s review of the AcciMap methodology, this argument discussed the need for improving the AcciMap approach rather than simply developing novel accident analysis approaches. One recommended way to achieve this includes combining the AcciMap approach with existing error-based classification schemes as part of the “remixing process”. Recent studies implementing this process include the UPLOADS classification scheme based on the AcciMap methodology for investigating led outdoor activities (Australia). This example supports the need to develop a health-specific AcciMap approach, as Goode et al. (2017) argued for accident analysis, including health IT analysis. The Medi-Socio AcciMap taxonomy approach built on Branford’s standardised AcciMap method was proposed. This novel approach was applied to analysing a significant health-IT related incident (Septra overdose of a patient) as detailed in the Digital Doctor book (Wacther, 2015). Standardised AcciMap and Medi-Socio AcciMap taxonomy approaches were applied to this incident to identify contributing factors, causal relationships (links) and formulate safety recommendations. In assessing the reliability of both AcciMap versions, professionals (Clinical safety/human factors practitioners, NHS) participated in the Septra overdose incident analysis. The validity assessment involved safety experts experienced in using the AcciMap method and applied the two AcciMap approaches to the incident. Qualitative and quantitative measurements were used to analyse and compare findings between professional users (reliability) and expert results (validity) based on causal/contributing factors, causal relationships and safety recommendations. These studies indicated lower reliability and validity scores for the Medi-Socio AcciMap taxonomy than the standardised AcciMap version, particularly relating to contributing factors and safety recommendations. Outcomes on reliability and validity studies, including usability, were discussed. Also, study limitations, research reflections, and recommendations were presented for future research.

description: Due to the interest in the biological properties of marine derived α-galactoglycosphingolipids (α-GalGSLs), a lot of work has focused on the development of their synthesis. Here we conducted the direct comparison of benzyl and 2-naphthylmethyl (Nap) ethers as permanent hydroxyl protecting groups for the synthesis of KRN7000, as well as the practical synthesis of a biologically active α-GalGSLs PBS-57. This work further revealed the advantages of Nap ether over benzyl ether for permanent hydroxyl protection in the synthesis of α-GalGSLs.
title: Spectral clustering and downsampling-based model selection for functional data
Creators: name: Al Alawi, Maryam
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: Functional data analysis is a growing field of research and has been employed in a wide range of applications ranging from genetics in biology to stock markets in economics. A crucial but challenging problem is clustering of functional data. In this thesis, we review the main contributions in this field and discuss the strengthens and weaknesses of the different clustering functional data approaches. We propose a new framework for clustering functional data and a new paradigm for model selection that is specifically designed for functional data, which are designed to address many of the weaknesses of existing techniques. Our clustering framework is based on first reducing the infinite dimensional space of functional data to a finite dimensional space by smoothing and basis expansion. Then we implement the spectral clustering approach by designing a new distance measure which has the flexibility of using the distance between the original trajectories and/or their derivatives. In addition, we develop a new model selection criterion, by introducing a technique called ‘downsampling’, which allows us to create lower resolution replicates of the observed curves. These replicates can then be used to examine the clustering stability of the existing clustering functional data approaches and select the optimal number of clusters. Further, we combine the two proposed techniques to develop an integrated clustering framework to estimate the number of clusters inherently and accordingly cluster the functional data. An extensive simulation study with existing clustering functional data methods show a superior performance of our clustering framework and reliable results of the proposed model selection criteria. The usefulness of these new approaches is also illustrated through applications to real data.

title: ‘Unconcealing’ the stage: from concealment to Extinction Rebellion
Creators: name: Baillie, Gavin
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: The thesis discusses concepts of ‘concealment’ and ‘unconcealment’ to explore how business-as-usual politics offers an inadequate stage for environmental group Extinction Rebellion’s urgent demands. Jürgen Habermas’ theory of the public sphere is taken as an instance of such inadequacy. Jacques Rancière’s critique of Habermas illustrates potential concealments within the politics of consensus. I seek to establish connections, not ordinarily made, between Martin Heidegger, Jacques Rancière, and Bertolt Brecht. I argue that each theorist offers a potential ‘unconcealment’ for Extinction Rebellion. The objective of this thesis is to evaluate these unconcealments as a means for understanding and assessing the action of Extinction Rebellion in responding to the climate emergency. The motif of the stage acts as a common thread throughout.
