description: Acrobeloides tricornis (Thorne, 1925) Thorne, 1937
(Fig. 1, A-C).
Five females. Dimensions: L = 0.36- 0.48 mm; a = 15 -18; b = 2.7 -3.6; c = 19-23; V = 9 _1 665 -661 0 -1 8. The specimens agree well with Thome's original description. The swelling of the corpus is distinct. The nerve ring surrounds the isthmus; opposite it is the excretory pore and a distinct hemizonid two annules long, immediately behind the excretory pore. Cuticular annulation 2 [x wide,shallow and indistinct over the greater part of the body. Tail with nine to ten annules. Vulva lips slightly protruding. The postvulvar part of the gonad extends farther from the vulva than the prevulvar part. Rudiment of second gonad shorter than body width. The double flexure behind the vulva is well developed in one specimen only. Dimensions of an intra-uterine egg: 52 x 19;x. The intestine is densely filled with globules so that the gonad does not show up very well.
Samples 17, 18, 21, 42, 54, 65, 66 and 67.

description: Diacritic characters can be considered as a unique set of characters providing us with adequate and significant clue in identifying a given language with considerably high accuracy. Diacritics, though associated with phonetics often serve as a distinguishing feature for many languages especially the ones with a Latin script. In this proposed work, we aim to identify language of text in images using the presence of diacritic characters in order to improve Optical Character Recognition (OCR) performance in any given automated environment. We showcase our work across 13 Latin languages encompassing 85 diacritic characters. We use an architecture similar to Squeezedet for object detection of diacritic characters followed by a shallow network to finally identify the language. OCR systems when accompanied with identified language parameter tends to produce better results than sole deployment of OCR systems. The discussed work apart from guaranteeing an improvement in OCR results also takes on-device (mobile phone) constraints into consideration in terms of model size and inference time.

description: 1. Wildlife in cities divides people, with some animals bringing positive benefits and others causing conflict, for example due to property damage. 2. Urban wildlife professionals from municipal administration, nature conservation, and hunting associations have a crucial role in shaping human-wildlife relationships in cities and fostering conflict-free coexistence. While many studies on urban wildlife have focused on the views of citizens, few have investigated the perspectives of experts to date. To address this knowledge gap, we interviewed 36 urban wildlife professionals giving guidance in the context of urban wildlife management, either in one of the four largest German cities by population (Berlin, Hamburg, Munich and Cologne) or at the national level. 3. Red foxes, wild boars, raccoons, stone martens and Eurasian beavers were the five mammal species most frequently highlighted in interviews to cause human-wildlife conflicts. The interviewees saw wild boars and raccoons as the most controversial urban wild mammals but emphasized the need to create refuges for beavers and better inform the public about foxes. 4. Management in terms of public outreach, urban planning and population control, as well as establishing official contact points and stricter fines of activities violating regulations were highlighted as important elements of a toolkit to manage urban wildlife conflicts.
The Ephemeral Pairing Problem

description: In wireless ad-hoc broadcast networks the pairing problem consists of establishing a (long-term) connection between two specific physical nodes in the network that do not yet know each other. We focus on the ephemeral version of this problem. Ephemeral pairings occur, for example, when electronic business cards are exchanged between two people that meet, or when one pays at a check-out using a wireless wallet. This problem can, in more abstract terms, be phrased as an ephemeral key exchange problem: given a low bandwidth authentic (or private) communication channel between two nodes, and a high bandwidth broadcast channel, can we establish a high-entropy shared secret session key between the two nodes without relying on any a priori shared secret information. Apart from introducing this new problem, we present several ephemeral key exchange protocols, both for the case of authentic channels as well as for the case of private channels.
Corporate theory : jurisprudence’s heart of darkness
Creators: name: Allen, Bradley
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis examines corporate theory as form of conduct to be reflected on as a whole: How did it become possible to ask, 'what is a corporation?' How was the concept of a legal entity, separate and distinct from its owners, constructed? These questions are approached from a theoretical perspective that sees law as a constitutive part of the sociopolitical field. From this perspective three lines of inquiry are pursued. First, the historical contingency of the modern corporate legal form is explored through an examination of the debate and events that led up to the enactment of the first statutes of general incorporation and limited liability by the British parliament in the mid nineteenth century. Second, corporate theory is considered in the light of Foucault's concept of problemisation. Finally, the relationship between the specialised legal knowledge of corporate theory and the process whereby sectional interests of the corporate sphere are presented as universal is interrogated. The thesis argues that corporate theory, when considered as a form of problemisation, can be roughly divided into three discursive forms: corporate ontology; managerialism; and the 'new' economic theories of the firm. These discursive forms are intimately linked to differing forms of government rationality (what Foucault termed governmentality). Corporate theory serves as a resource that is deployed in the debates around corporate regulation rather than as a complete blueprint for action. In a similar vein the development of the company legal form is not the discovery of a timeless a-historical entity but the product of a specific set of historical circumstances. The corporation can be seen as a structure which is invested with certain ethical, governmental, and economic values. The manner in which corporate theory presents these values can be highly problematic particularly with regard to the issues of corporate responsibility and the valorisation of shareholder property rights. The accretion of values onto the legal form is an ongoing process. Corporate theory is often deployed in support of such moves and is thus often complicit with the presentation of such values and interests as being universal in character.

description: Osteoarthritis (OA) is defined as progressive deterioration state of the synovial joint, and is characterized by erosions on articular cartilage. Moreover, inflammation, limitation of motion, pain and loss of function of the affected joint can also assigned to the frame of OA. The Arrabidae chica Verlot (ACV), in turn, named by the natives as "Crajiru", is a plant species known for its anti-inflammatory, healing and immunoregulatory properties. In the present study, we investigate the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of this herbal extract, by oral administration, using mainly clinical patterns in an experimental model of osteoarthritis in rats.

description: Studying the dynamics of COVID-19 is of paramount importance to understanding the efficiency of restrictive measures and develop strategies to defend against upcoming contagion waves. In this work, we study the spread of COVID-19 using a semi-supervised neural network and assuming a passive part of the population remains isolated from the virus dynamics. We start with an unsupervised neural network that learns solutions of differential equations for different modeling parameters and initial conditions. A supervised method then solves the inverse problem by estimating the optimal conditions that generate functions to fit the data for those infected by, recovered from, and deceased due to COVID-19. This semi-supervised approach incorporates real data to determine the evolution of the spread, the passive population, and the basic reproduction number for different countries.

description: Classical nonlinear waves exhibit a phenomenon of condensation that results from the natural irreversible process of thermalization, in analogy with the quantum Bose-Einstein condensation. Wave condensation originates in the divergence of the thermodynamic equilibrium Rayleigh-Jeans distribution, which is responsible for the macroscopic population of the fundamental mode of the system. However, achieving complete thermalization and condensation of incoherent waves through nonlinear optical propagation is known to require prohibitive large interaction lengths. Here, we derive a discrete kinetic equation describing the nonequilibrium evolution of the random wave in the presence of a structural disorder of the medium. Our theory reveals that a weak disorder accelerates the rate of thermalization and condensation by several order of magnitudes. Such a counterintuitive dramatic acceleration of condensation can provide a natural explanation for the recently discovered phenomenon of optical beam self-cleaning. Our experiments in multimode optical fibers report the observation of the transition from an incoherent thermal distribution to wave condensation, with a condensate fraction of up to 60% in the fundamental mode of the waveguide trapping potential.

description: This paper presents a modeling study of the way speech motor control can deal with gravity to achieve steady-state tongue positions. It is based on simulations carried out with the 3D biomechanical tongue model developed at ICP, which is now controlled with the Lambda model (Equilibrium-Point Hypothesis). The influence of short-delay orosensory feedback on posture stability is assessed by testing different muscle force/muscle length relationships (Invariant Characteristics). Muscle activation patterns necessary to maintain the tongue in a schwa position are proposed, and the relations of head position, tongue shape and muscle activations are analyzed.

description: Purpose The removal of the residual solvent dichloromethane from biodegradable poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microparticles was investigated by aqueous or alcoholic wet extraction or vacuum-drying. Methods Microparticles were prepared by the O/W solvent extraction/evaporation method. The solidified microparticles were separated by filtration and the effect of subsequent drying and wet extraction methods were investigated. The residual solvent content was analysed with gas chromatography (organic solvents) and Karl Fischer titration (water). The effect of extraction conditions on microparticle aggregation, surface morphology and encapsulation of the drugs dexamethasone and risperidone was investigated. Results Residual dichloromethane was reduced to 2.43% (w/w) (20 °C) or 0.03% (w/w) (35 °C) by aqueous wet extraction. With vacuum-drying, residual dichloromethane only decreased from about 5% (w/w) to 4.34% (w/w) (20 °C) or 3.20% (w/w) (35 °C) due to the lack of the plasticizing effect of water. Redispersion of filtered, wet microparticles in alcoholic media significantly improved the extraction due to an increased PLGA plasticization. The potential of different extractants was explained with the Gordon-Taylor equation and Hansen solubility parameters. Extraction in methanol: or ethanol:water mixtures reduced residual dichloromethane from 4 - 7% (w/w) to 0.5 - 2.3% (w/w) within 1 h and 0.08 - 0.18% (w/w) within 6 h. Higher alcohol contents and higher temperature resulted in aggregation of microparticles and lower drug loadings. Conclusion The final removal of residual dichloromethane was more efficient with alcoholic wet extraction followed by aqueous wet extraction at elevated temperature and vacuum drying of the microparticles.
Mesons and tachyons with confinement and chiral restoration, and NA60

Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: In this paper the spectrum of quark-antiquark systems, including light mesons and tachyons, is studied in the true vacuum and in the chiral invariant vacuum. The mass gap equation for the vacua and the Salpeter-RPA equation for the mesons are solved for a simple chiral invariant and confining quark model. At T=0 and in the true vacuum, the scalar and pseudoscalar, or the vector and axial vector are not degenerate, and in the chiral limit, the pseudoscalar groundstates are Goldstone bosons. At T=0 the chiral invariant vacuum is an unstable vacuum, decaying through an infinite number of scalar and pseudoscalar tachyons. Nevertheless the axialvector and vector remain mesons, with real masses. To illustrate the chiral restoration, an arbitrary path between the two vacua is also studied. Different families of light-light and heavy-light mesons, sensitive to chiral restoration, are also studied. At higher temperatures the potential must be suppressed, and the chiral symmetry can be restored without tachyons, but then all mesons have small real masses. Implications for heavy-ion collisions, in particular for the recent vector meson spectra measured by the NA60 collaboration, are discussed.

 This species is very common and widespread on Spitzbergen. Body stout, tapering only slightly anteriorly, the diameter at the base of the oesophagus being about twice the width of the lip region. Cuticle with coarse transverse striae about 2 \i apart in mid-body; anteriorly they become more spaced, being 2.5 -3.0 \i apart behind the lip region. Lateral field with two wings (three longitudinal grooves), about one-sixth of body diameter. Labial probolae acute, sclerotized, the axils bearing forward pointing acute processes. Prelabial probolae bifurcate over nearly half their length. Mouth cavity cephaloboid, details of rhabdions invisible as in the other cephaloboid species. Isthmus of oesophagus offset from corpus chiefly by alteration in the tissues. Terminal bulb well developed, with valves. Deirids not seen. The nerve ring surrounds the posterior end of the corpus. The excretory pore lies at level of anterior end of isthmus. Hemizonid immediately behind excretory pore, one to two annules long. Intestine with wide lumen. Vulva lips strongly protruding. Gonad cephaloboid, with spermatheca at the anterior flexure; the postvulvar part may show a double flexure or not. Dimensions of two intra-uterine eggs: 54-56 x 20 - 23 (x. In most specimens the posterior rudimentary gonad is relatively large as described by Thorne (1925); however, generally it is small, till one-half of body width, in specimens in which the anterior gonad is little developed. This condition is found generally in young slender females. In most older and fatter specimens the posterior gonad measures 1.3-1.8 body diameters. Rectum about as long as anal body diameter. Tail 1.8- 2.3 anal body widths long, regularly conoid with acute, in some specimens slightly offset, terminus.

description: A multi-modal framework to generate user intention distributions when operating a mobile vehicle is proposed in this work. The model learns from past observed trajectories and leverages traversability information derived from the visual surroundings to produce a set of future trajectories, suitable to be directly embedded into a perception-action shared control strategy on a mobile agent, or as a safety layer to supervise the prudent operation of the vehicle. We base our solution on a conditional Generative Adversarial Network with Long-Short Term Memory cells to capture trajectory distributions conditioned on past trajectories, further fused with traversability probabilities derived from visual segmentation with a Convolutional Neural Network. The proposed data-driven framework results in a significant reduction in error of the predicted trajectories (versus the ground truth) from comparable strategies in the literature (e.g. Social-GAN) that fail to account for information other than the agent's past history. Experiments were conducted on a dataset collected with a custom wheelchair model built onto the open-source urban driving simulator CARLA, proving also that the proposed framework can be used with a small, un-annotated dataset.

description: The Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) is a method of choice to solve the electronic structure problem for molecules on near-term gate-based quantum computers. However, the circuit depth is expected to grow significantly with problem size. Increased depth can both degrade the accuracy of the results and reduce trainability. In this work, we propose a novel approach to reduce ansatz circuit depth. Our approach, called PermVQE, adds an additional optimization loop to VQE that permutes qubits in order to solve for the qubit Hamiltonian that minimizes long-range correlations in the ground state. The choice of permutations is based on mutual information, which is a measure of interaction between electrons in spin-orbitals. Encoding strongly interacting spin-orbitals into proximal qubits on a quantum chip naturally reduces the circuit depth needed to prepare the ground state. For representative molecular systems, LiH, H$_2$, (H$_2$)$_2$, H$_4$, and H$_3^+$, we demonstrate for linear qubit connectivity that placing entangled qubits in close proximity leads to shallower depth circuits required to reach a given eigenvalue-eigenvector accuracy. This approach can be extended to any qubit connectivity and can significantly reduce the depth required to reach a desired accuracy in VQE. Moreover, our approach can be applied to other variational quantum algorithms beyond VQE.

Putting visual reference frames in conflict to study the horizontal effect: a visual anisotropy
Creators: name: O'Keefe, Eleanor

Publisher: name: F1000Research
Year: 2015

description: When viewing natural stimuli, people more easily perceive oblique orientations in contrast to horizontal orientations, with vertical in-between, known as “the horizontal effect”. Here we investigate if this process changes with head tilt, when the anisotropy in natural scenes changes with respect to retinal coordinates. We used a matched contrast paradigm in which participants changed the scalar of the oriented bandwidth of the test stimulus to match their perception of the bandwidth strength in the reference stimulus. Both test and reference stimuli were noise images constructed by combining random phase spectra with a 0.2-17cpd amplitude spectrum with slope -1, mirroring that in natural scenes. The 45° orientation bandwidth was centered on 0°, 45°, 90°, or 135° for the test stimulus and on 112.5° for the reference stimulus. Participants were seated upright with a head tilt of 45° to the right. Our results show that the horizontal effect can follow either retinocentric or geocentric coordinates with head tilt, depending on the subject. This suggests that the anisotropy of gain control in the horizontal effect is not ‘hard-wired’ in early visual orientation encoding, but rather is a plastic mechanism that is influenced by subjects’ perceptual response to head tilt.

 Report as epibiont on nematodes
Ansari et al. (2017) reported this species on harpacticoid copepods and nematodes from Suvadiva atoll lagoon (Maldivian archipelago) at a depth of 62– 63 m.
 Other hosts
It was described as an epibiont on marine isopods from the Sakhalin and Kunashyr Islands (Jankowski 1981). This species was also reported on halacarid mites from the Barents Sea (Jankowski 1981; Dovgal et al. 2008a).
 Remarks
Since the specimens from the halacarid mites differ from the specimens from isopods based upon the form of the stalkı Jankowski (1981) proposed that the halacarid epibiont forms are possibly restricted to a particular species.

description: We review the high-redshift X-ray selected AGN clustering, based on the XMM/2dF survey, and compare it with other recent XMM-based results. Using the recent Hasinger et al. (2005) and La Franca et al. (2005) luminosity functions we find that the spatial clustering lengths, derived using Limber's inversion equation, are $\sim 17$ and 20 $h^{-1}$ Mpc for the soft and hard band sources while their median redshifts are ${\bar z}\sim 1.2$ and 0.8, respectively. The corresponding bias factors at $z=\bar{z}$ are $\sim 5.3\pm 0.9$ and $\sim 5.1\pm1.1$, respectively. Within the framework of a flat cosmological model we find that our results support a model with $Ω_m \simeq 0.26$, $σ_8\simeq 0.75$, $h\simeq 0.72$, w$\simeq -0.9$ (in excellent agreement with the 3 year WMAP results). We also find the present day bias of X-ray AGNs to be $b_{\circ}\sim 2$.

description: We measure the low-temperature resistance of permalloy break junctions as a function of contact size and the magnetic field angle, in applied fields large enough to saturate the magnetization. For both nanometer-scale metallic contacts and tunneling devices we observe large changes in resistance with angle, as large as 25% in the tunneling regime. The pattern of magnetoresistance is sensitive to changes in bias on a scale of a few mV. We interpret the effect as a consequence of conductance fluctuations due to quantum interference.

description: Background: Neuroprotective treatment strategies aiming at interfering with either inflammation or cell death indicate the importance of these mechanisms in the development of brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of minocycline on microglia/macrophage cell activity and its neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory impact 14 days after aneurismal SAH in mice. Methods: Endovascular filament perforation was used to induce SAH in mice. SAH + vehicle-operated mice were used as controls for SAH vehicle-treated mice and SAH + minocycline-treated mice. The drug administration started 4 h after SAH induction and was daily repeated until day 7 post SAH and continued until day 14 every second day. Brain cryosections were immunolabeled for Iba1 to detect microglia/macrophages and NeuN to visualize neurons. Phagocytosis assay was performed to determine the microglia/macrophage activity status. Apoptotic cells were stained using terminal deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end labeling. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to estimate cytokine gene expression. Results: We observed a significantly reduced phagocytic activity of microglia/macrophages accompanied by a lowered spatial interaction with neurons and reduced neuronal apoptosis achieved by minocycline administration after SAH. Moreover, the SAH-induced overexpression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and neuronal cell death was markedly attenuated by the compound. Conclusions: Minocycline treatment may be implicated as a therapeutic approach with long-term benefits in the management of secondary brain injury after SAH in a clinically relevant time window.

description: We propose a new concept of magnetic focusing for targeting and accumulation of functionalized superparamagnetic nanoparticles in living organs through composite configurations of different permanent magnets. The proposed setups fulfill two fundamental requirements for in vivo experiments: 1) reduced size of the magnets to best focusing on small areas representing the targeted organs of mice and rats and 2) maximization of the magnetic driving force acting on the magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in blood. To this aim, several configurations of permanent magnets organized with different degrees of symmetry have been tested. The product B*grad(B) proportional to the magnetic force has been experimentally measured, over a wide area (20x20 mm^2), at a distance corresponding to the hypothetical distance of the mouse organ from the magnets. A non-symmetric configuration of mixed shape permanent magnets resulted in particularly promising to achieve the best performances for further in vivo experiments.

description: A careful reading of the ‘settling’ of the deities and their mahājan in Kunḍai and Maḍkai gives an impresssion that the two villages were largely uninhabited when the mahājan of Śrī Durgādēvī of Gāṁvśī reached there. In both the villages the Śrī Navdurgā temples are the principal temples; and in both the villages these mahājan are the gāṁvkār of the local gāṁvkārī; no one else is a gāṁvkār. They are all sārasvat brāmhaṇ, and carry the surname Kamat. But closer inspection reveals that the then existing gāṁvkār were ‘dispossessed’ of their properties and rights as gāṁvkār, and the brāmhaṇic pantheon was superimposed on the primitive religion. [Gomes Pereira, 1978 : 185] In Madkai, temples for all the affiliate deities of Śrī Durgādēvī were set up in close proximity; but the temple of Śrī Mallikārjun was set up in the Āksôn ward; it belongs to the zalmī community. We do not know if this temple existed there from the beginning, or whether it was built there after the zalmī were displaced by the brāmhaṇ. On the occasion of certain festivals in the Śrī Navdurgā temple in Kundai, the honour of lighting the lamp called ‘divzam’ first, goes to the ‘mhār’, an aboriginal community.
