description: We investigate improvements to our 3D model observer with the goal of better matching human observer performance as a function of viewing distance, effective contrast, maximum luminance, and browsing speed. Two nonlinear methods of applying the human contrast sensitivity function (CSF) to a 3D model observer are proposed, namely the Probability Map (PM) and Monte Carlo (MC) methods. In the PM method, the visibility probability for each frequency component of the image stack, p, is calculated taking into account Barten's spatiotemporal CSF, the component modulation, and the human psychometric function. The probability p is considered to be equal to the perceived amplitude of the frequency component and thus can be used by a traditional model observer (e.g., LG-msCHO) in the space-time domain. In the MC method, each component is randomly kept with probability p or discarded with 1-p. The amplitude of the retained components is normalized to unity. The methods were tested using DBT stacks of an anthropomorphic breast phantom processed in a comprehensive simulation pipeline. Our experiments indicate that both the PM and MC methods yield results that match human observer performance better than the linear filtering method as a function of viewing distance, effective contrast, maximum luminance, and browsing speed.

description: With the increasing pace of automation, modern robotic systems need to act in stochastic, non-stationary, partially observable environments. A range of algorithms for finding parameterized policies that optimize for long-term average performance have been proposed in the past. However, the majority of the proposed approaches does not explicitly take into account the variability of the performance metric, which may lead to finding policies that although performing well on average, can perform spectacularly bad in a particular run or over a period of time. To address this shortcoming, we study an approach to policy optimization that explicitly takes into account higher order statistics of the reward function. In this paper, we extend policy gradient methods to include the entropic risk measure in the objective function and evaluate their performance in simulation experiments and on a real-robot task of learning a hitting motion in robot badminton.

description: Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are collections of mobile nodes that can communicate with one another using multihop wireless links. MANETs are often deployed in the environments, where there is no fixed infrastructure and centralized management. The nodes of mobile ad hoc networks are susceptible to compromise. In such a scenario, designing an efficient, reliable and secure routing protocol has been a major challengesue over the last many years. The routing protocol Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) has no security measures in-built in it. It is vulnerable to many types of routing attacks. The flood attack is one of them. In this paper, we propose a simple and effective technique to secure Ad hoc Ondemand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol against flood attacks. To deal with a flood attack, we have proposed Neighbor Defense Technique for Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (NDTAODV). This makes AODV more robust. The proposed technique has been designed to isolate the flood attacker with the use of timers, peak value and hello alarm technique. We have simulated our work in Network Simulator NS-2.33 (NS-2) with different pause times by way of different number of malicious nodes. We have compared the performance of NDTAODV with the AODV in normal situation as well as in the presence of malicious attacks. We have considered Packet Delivery Fraction (PDF), Average Throughput (AT) and Normalized Routing Load (NRL) for comparing the performance of NDTAODV and AODV.

title: Exploring the Experiences of Selected Social Workers and Their Lessons Learned in Collaborating with Interprofessional Clinicians in Vancouver’s Healthcare System: An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis
Creators: name: Chong, David Ching Hung
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2024

description: Social work students in Canada are increasingly learning about the value of collaboration in their work because of the recognition by both the Canadian government and various health authorities that interprofessional collaboration helps to enhance the quality of care and is cost-effective. As a Care Home Consultant who is also working as a social worker in the healthcare setting, the extent to which the theoretical elements of interprofessional collaboration and the training of social workers at university align with their actual experiences interest me. Therefore, I explored the lived experiences of a sample of social workers in the healthcare system in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. I wanted to identify the convergences and divergences in their experiences of collaborating with other clinicians and the extent to which their notions of collaboration acquired throughout their university training accorded with their work experiences. I also explored elements emphasised in the Canadian healthcare system: policy (Squires et al., 2019); client-centeredness (Aggarwal & Williams, 2019); leadership (Marchildon, 2014); and followership (Leung et al., 2018). The goal was to have anywhere between 10 and 15 social workers in one particular healthcare system in the Lower Mainland and to interview each of them from anywhere between 60 minutes and 90 minutes using a semi-structured interview. I used interpretive phenomenology as my approach because of its potential power to capture the essence of lived experiences for analysis and interpretation. It emerged from the research that even though practically all the selected social workers had to go through a bachelor’s and master’s programme in social work, what they learned of collaboration in these programmes was minimal. The experience of collaboration with other clinicians was a constant balancing act of catering to the powerful medical model and the organisational hierarchy, all within the constraints of time, institutional, and provincial compliance guidelines. The fact that all clinicians knew that they had to work with others made the situation bearable, but the selected social workers, for the most part, had to operate within an environment in which they felt themselves without individual or cohesive power to ensure that their voices and their clients’ voices were always heard and with that, the attainment of the most desirable outcomes. Future research focusing on social work professors and their perspectives on interprofessional collaboration, the social work practicum, and social workers’ first-year experiences on the job could shed even more light on the subject of collaboration from the perspective of social workers.

description: Excited states in the neutron-rich N=38,36 nuclei \nuc{60}{Ti} and \nuc{58}{Ti} were populated in nucleon-removal reactions from \nuc{61}{V} projectiles at 90~MeV/nucleon. The γ-ray transitions from such states in these Ti isotopes were detected with the advanced γ-ray tracking array GRETINA and were corrected event-by-event for large Doppler shifts (v/c \sim 0.4) using the γ-ray interaction points deduced from online signal decomposition. The new data indicate that a steep decrease in quadrupole collectivity occurs when moving from neutron-rich N=36,38 Fe and Cr toward the Ti and Ca isotones. In fact, \nuc{58,60}{Ti} provide some of the most neutron-rich benchmarks accessible today for calculations attempting to determine the structure of the potentially doubly-magic nucleus \nuc{60}{Ca}.

description: In this work we present simple, physics-based models for two effects that have been noted in the fully depleted CCDs that are presently used in the Dark Energy Survey Camera. The first effect is the observation that the point-spread function increases slightly with the signal level. This is explained by considering the effect on charge-carrier diffusion due to the reduction in the magnitude of the channel potential as collected signal charge acts to partially neutralize the fixed charge in the depleted channel. The resulting reduced voltage drop across the carrier drift region decreases the vertical electric field and increases the carrier transit time. The second effect is the observation of low-level, concentric ring patterns seen in uniformly illuminated images. This effect is shown to be most likely due to lateral deflection of charge during the transit of the photogenerated carriers to the potential wells as a result of lateral electric fields. The lateral fields are a result of space charge in the fully depleted substrates arising from resistivity variations inherent to the growth of the high-resistivity silicon used to fabricate the CCDs.

description: We address the problem of assessing the coherent character of physical evolution. We take the quantum Zeno effect (QZE) as a characteristic trait of quantum dynamics, and derive relations among transfer rates as a function of the strength of a measurement. These relations support the intuition that only quantum dynamics is susceptible to QZE. With the derived bounds on the magnitude of coherent dynamics, we propose an experimentally accessible coherence witness. Our results have potential application in assessing coherence of quantum transport in biological and other complex many-body systems.

description: The efficiency of tag identification in an RFID system can be low down due to the tag collision problems. the tag collision problem occurs when a reader try to read multiple tags in an interrogation zone. as a result the reader does not identify the tag correctly. that causes a loss of information or data interference. to solve such kind of issues a series of aloha based algorithm and binary search algorithm have beed proposed. the most simple popular and good giving performance algorithm are aloha based anti-collision algorithms. in this paper we present a new variation in accelerated slotted aloha afsa. our proposed algorithm by using the bitmaps and avoids wastages in bit times due to idleness and collided slots reduce the tag reading time. the simulation result shows that afsa can significantly reduce the average tag reading time with respect to the base protocols and achieve high tag reading rates under both static and mobile setting.

description: The $\textit{Herschel}$ DEBRIS, DUNES and GT programmes observed 37 exoplanet host stars within 25 pc at 70, 100 and 160 $μ$m with the sensitivity to detect far-infrared excess emission at flux density levels only an order of magnitude greater than that of the Solar system's Edgeworth-Kuiper belt. Here we present an analysis of that sample, using it to more accurately determine the (possible) level of dust emission from these exoplanet host stars and thereafter determine the links between the various components of these exoplanetary systems through statistical analysis. We have fitted the flux densities measured from recent \textit{Herschel} observations with a simple two parameter ($T_{d}$, $L_{\rm IR}/L_{\star}$) black body model (or to the 3-$σ$ upper limits at 100 $μ$m). From this uniform approach we calculate the fractional luminosity, radial extent, dust temperature and disc mass. We then plotted the calculated dust luminosity or upper limits against the stellar properties, e.g. effective temperature, metallicity, age, and identified correlations between these parameters. A total of eleven debris discs are identified around the 37 stars in the sample. An incidence of ten cool debris discs around the Sun-like exoplanet host stars (29 $\pm$ 9 %) is consistent with the detection rate found by DUNES (20.2 $\pm$ 2.0 %). For the debris disc systems, the dust temperatures range from 20 to 80 K, and fractional luminosities ($L_{\rm IR}/L_{\star}$) between 2.4 $\times$10$^{-6}$ and 4.1 $\times$10$^{-4}$. In the case of non-detections, we calculated typical 3-$σ$ upper limits to the dust fractional luminosities of a few $\times10^{-6}$. We recover the previously identified correlation between stellar metallicity and hot Jupiter planets in our data set. We find a correlation between the increased presence of dust, lower planet masses and lower stellar metallicities. (abridged)

This work investigates the challenges and feasibility of developing intelligent driving system providing timesensitive information about traffic conditions and roadside facilities. The architecture for collaborative vehicle communication system is presented using the concepts of wireless networks and Bluetooth protocol. We discuss how vehicles can form mobile ad-hoc networks and exchange data by the on-board Bluetooth sensors. The key design concepts of the intelligent driving service infrastructure are analyzed showing collaborative fusion of multiple positional data could give a better understanding of the surrounding traffic conditions for collaborative driving. The technical feasibility of using Bluetooth for data exchange among moving vehicles is evaluated.

Das Wagnis der Freiheit. Recht, Politik und die Angst der Moderne
Creators: name: Zabel, Benno
Publisher: name: UB Tübingen
Year: 2018

description: Das Freiheitsversprechen der Moderne ist heute unmittelbar mit der Anerkennung und dem Schutz individueller Rechte verbunden. Anerkennung und Schutz der Individuen sind so könnte man auch sagen zum zentralen Legitimationsgrund politischer Ordnungen geworden. Diese säkulare Legitimationsformel ist deshalb von Bedeutung, weil sie voraussetzt, dass Recht und Staat neben der Rechtegarantiefunktion auch die soziale Sinn- und Werteproduktion übernommen haben. Das zeigt sich vor allem an den Prozeduren der Angst- und Kontingenzbewältigung, die auf jeglichen Transzendenzbezug verzichten müssen. Damit einher geht eine umfassende Verrechtlichung der Lebenswelt. Liberale Gemeinwesen haben insofern mit einer paradoxen Situation zu kämpfen: Sie sollen Freiheitsrechte ermöglichen, können das aber nur, indem sie die Regulierungsmacht von Recht und Staat beständig ausdehnen. Das Wagnis der Freiheit besteht deshalb nicht nur in der Anerkennung und im Schutz individueller Rechte. Es besteht eben auch in der kritischen Selbstreflexion der Rechtsmacht und der daraus hervorgehenden Angstpolitik.

Today's promise of freedom is directly linked to the recognition and protection of individual rights. Recognition and protection of individu-als can also be said to have become the central legitimacy of political orders. This secular legitimization formula is important because it presupposes that law and state have taken over the social meaning and value production in addition to the rights guarantee function. This is especially evident in the procedures for coping with anxiety and contingency, which have to forego any reference to transcendence. This goes hand in hand with a comprehensive legalization of the living environment (Lebenswelt). Liberal polities have to contend with a paradoxical situation in that they are supposed to enable civil liber-ties, but they can only do so by constantly expanding the regulatory power of law and state. The risk of freedom is therefore not only the recognition and protection of individual rights. It also consists in the critical self-reflection of legal power and the resulting anxiety policy.

description: The second Fermi-LAT source catalog (2FGL) is the deepest all-sky survey available in the gamma-ray band. It contains 1873 sources, of which 576 remain unassociated. Machine-learning algorithms can be trained on the gamma-ray properties of known active galactic nuclei (AGN) to find objects with AGN-like properties in the unassociated sample. This analysis finds 231 high-confidence AGN candidates, with increased robustness provided by intersecting two complementary algorithms. A method to estimate the performance of the classification algorithm is also presented, that takes into account the differences between associated and unassociated gamma-ray sources. Follow-up observations targeting AGN candidates, or studies of multiwavelength archival data, will reduce the number of unassociated gamma-ray sources and contribute to a more complete characterization of the population of gamma-ray emitting AGN.

description: Due to its capacity to promote the flame speed of a mixture, ozone addition to freely-propagating flames has been investigated over a variety of conditions. Nonetheless, the understanding of how ozone addition enhances strained flames is limited. In the present study, numerical simulations are conducted in the counterflow twin premixed flame configuration to explore the effects of ozone addition on strained laminar flames. It is seen that ozone addition can cause difficulties in the extrapolation of the flame speed based on the local minimum velocity. However, the enhancement by ozone of the strained flame speed based on the point of maximum heat release rate rises consistently as the strain rate increases and accelerates as the extinction limit approaches. A major reason for this occurrence is that almost all of the most sensitive reactions are promoted more by ozone under higher strain rates. An investigation into the ozone consumption pathways is also conducted, and it is found that increased pressures and temperatures favor the ozone decomposition reaction and ozonolysis reactions over the ozone hydrogen-abstraction reaction. It is also seen that extended residence times decrease the sensitivity coefficients of ozonolysis reactions for strained flames but promote their sensitivity coefficients for freely-propagating flames, which is attributed to the differences in adiabaticity between the two.
Entgrenzte Bukowina. Was ist und leistet Recht in einer normpluralistischen Perspektive?

description: Moderne Gesellschaften sind plural, auch in normativer Hinsicht. Im Zentrum aktueller Debatten um normative Pluralität steht vielfach das Recht. Es ist selbst Teil einer pluralen normativen Landschaft, die es in vielfältiger Weise zu ordnen beansprucht. Um über diesen – nicht unproblematischen – Bezug in sozialethischer Hinsicht ins Gespräch zu kommen, sind Vorklärungen notwendig: Was ist Recht? Wie grenzt es sich von anderen sozialen Normen ab und wie setzt es sich zu diesen in Beziehung? Vor allem das staatliche Recht muss sich diesbezüglich der Frage stellen, wie es mit normativer Pluralität um-gehen könne, ohne nichtrechtliche Normativitäten zu juridifizieren oder nichtstaatliches Recht zu marginalisieren.
Modern societies are pluralist entities, in a normative sense among others. The current debates about normative plurality revolve to no small degree around law. But although law constitutes part of the plural normative landscape, it also endeavours to organise this land-scape itself. In any case, the ethical debate arising from this dual role requires some initial clarification in the first place: What is law? How can it be distinguished from other social norms, and how does it re-late to them? In this context it is particularly the law of the state which must address the issue of normative plurality without juridifying non legal norms or marginalising non-state law.

Vom Bruch im Recht. Kulturtheoretische Vorüberlegungen mit Ernst Cassirer
Creators: name: Polke, Christian
Publisher: name: UB Tübingen
Year: 2018

description: Die Figur des Rechtsbruches, genauerhin nicht nur die der Brüche des Rechts, sondern auch im Recht, wird aus der Perspektive einer Kulturtheorie des Rechts im Anschluss an Ernst Cassirer verhandelt. Jeder Rechtsbruch setzt voraus, dass Recht als spezifische symbolische Form eine regelgeleitete Ordnung darstellt, deren Fortfolge stets mit Variationen einhergeht. Nicht jeder Bruch im Recht ist somit ein Rechtsbruch oder auch ein Abbruch des Regelsystems, sondern kann auch eine Rekonfiguration darstellen, um der neuen Herausforderungen für das Recht entsprechen zu können. Von daher sind vornehmlich Willkür und Gewalt diejenigen Modi von Rechtsbrüchen, die der inneren Natur des Rechts als Kulturform widersprechen. Vor diesem Hintergrund lässt sich die »Rule of Law« auch dann verfassungsrechtlich aufrechterhalten, wenn zugleich innerhalb des Zivilrechts rechtsplurale Räume implementiert werden würden.

The article deals with modes and structures of law-breaking, not from the perspective of jurisprudence or legal studies, but from the perspective of a cultural theory of law. Thereby, the argumentation mainly follows the insights of Ernst Cassirer´s understanding of law as a distinctive »symbolic form«. Public debates about legitimate breaks of the »Rule of Law« can relate to several levels of formal legal systems: from civil and penal law up to constitutional law and its legal interpretation. However, any legal system is shaped and formed by a specific structure of order, with different kind of rules, and forms of variation. Therefore not in every case breaking a legal rule means its violation. Legal variation can also in the long run lead to a new legal system of order (and norms) dependent on what kind of challenges it has to face to and by which kind of instruments it is implemented. In any case, due to the inner essence of law as symbolic form, violence and arbitrariness have to be excluded because. In the end, the article tries to argue that even a legal pluralism within civic law systems must not be seen as a fundamental break within and of the applicable »Rule of Law«.

Rechtsbruch und Strafe. Gerechtigkeitstheoretische Erwägungen
Creators: name: Dübgen, Franziska
Publisher: name: UB Tübingen
Year: 2018

description: Der Artikel befasst sich mit dem Verhältnis von Rechtsbruch und Strafe und analysiert dieses aus dem Blickwinkel der Gerechtigkeit. Zunächst erläutert die Autorin anhand empirischer Studien die Bedeutung der sozialen Hintergrundbedingungen für die Praxis des Strafrechts. In einem weiteren Schritt diskutiert der Artikel verschiedene philosophische Begründungsmodelle der Strafe, die mit einem machttheoretischen Ansatz kontrastiert werden, welcher die Strafe grundsätzlich infrage stellt. Zur theoretischen Fundierung folgen drei Thesen über den immanenten Zusammenhang von Strafe und sozialer (Un)Gerechtigkeit. Abschließend führt die Autorin das Konzept der transformativen Gerechtigkeit als alternatives Paradigma zur Strafgerechtigkeit ein und zeigt dessen praktische Konsequenzen auf.

The article deals with the relationship between the breach of law and punishment from the angle of justice theory. As a first step, the author argues why social justice as a background condition of individual behaviour matters when analysing legal punishment. In a second step, the article introduces different justifications for punishment and contrasts them with a theoretical account based on social power, which demands the abolishment of punishment. In order to provide further philosophical grounds for this demand, the author introduces three propositions on the immanent relationship between retribution and social inequality. By way of conclusion, the article discusses the novel concept of transformative justice as an alternative paradigm of action that moves beyond punishment.

description: We report the electronic structure of YbB6, a recently predicted moderately correlated topological insulator, measured by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We directly observed linearly dispersive bands around the time-reversal invariant momenta Γ and X with negligible kz dependence, consistent with odd number of surface states crossing the Fermi level in a Z2 topological insulator. Circular dichroism photoemission spectra suggest that these in-gap states possess chirality of orbital angular momentum, which is related to the chiral spin texture, further indicative of their topological nature. The observed insulating gap of YbB6 is about 100 meV, larger than that reported by theoretical calculations. Our results present strong evidence that YbB6 is a correlated topological insulator and provide a foundation for further studies of this promising material.

Phase diagram and Fermi-liquid properties of the extended Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The Hubbard model and extended Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice can be seen as prototype models of single layer graphene placed in a high dielectric constant environment that screens the Coulomb interaction. Taking advantage of the absence of a sign problem at half-filling, we study this problem with clusters up to 96 sites with the Determinant Quantum Monte Carlo Method as an impurity solver for the the Dynamical Cluster Approximation at finite temperatures. After determining the stability of the semi-metallic phase to interaction-induced spin-density wave (SDW), charge-density wave (CDW) and Mott insulating phases, we study the single particle dynamics of the Dirac fermions. We show that when spontaneous symmetry breaking is avoided, the semi-metallic phase is a stable Fermi liquid in the presence of repulsive interactions and that Kondo screening dominates the low temperature regime, even though there is a $ρ(ω) = |ω|$ type local density of states. We also investigate the impact of the correlation effects on the renormalization of the Fermi velocity $v_F$. We find that $v_F$ is not renormalized when only on-site repulsion $U$ is present, but that near-neighbor repulsion $V$ does renormalize $v_F$. This may explain the variations between different measurements of $v_F$ in graphene.

description: In this paper, the solution of the multi-order differential equations, by using Mellin Transform, is proposed. It is shown that the problem related to the shift of the real part of the argument of the transformed function, arising when the Mellin integral operates on the fractional derivatives, may be overcame. Then, the solution may be found for any fractional differential equation involving multi-order fractional derivatives (or integrals). The solution is found in the Mellin domain, by solving a linear set of algebraic equations, whose inverse transform gives the solution of the fractional differential equation at hands.

description: We revisit recent results on integrable cases for higher-dimensional generalizations of the 2D pentagram map: short-diagonal, dented, deep-dented, and corrugated versions, and define a universal class of pentagram maps, which are proved to possess projective duality. We show that in many cases the pentagram map cannot be included into integrable flows as a time-one map, and discuss how the corresponding notion of discrete integrability can be extended to include jumps between invariant tori. We also present a numerical evidence that certain generalizations of the integrable 2D pentagram map are non-integrable and present a conjecture for a necessary condition of their discrete integrability.

description: Background: LGBTIQ asylum-seekers face multiple health risks. Yet, little is known about their healthcare needs. In 2016, Berlin opened the only major shelter for LGBTIQ asylum-seekers in Germany. This preliminary study describes health and healthcare utilization by asylum-seekers living in Berlin’s LGBTIQ shelter. To identify particular healthcare needs, we compared our results to asylum-seekers from other shelters. Methods: We surveyed residents of the LGBTIQ shelter and 21 randomly selected shelters in Berlin, using a validated questionnaire in nine languages (n = 309 respondents, including 32 respondents from the LGBTIQ shelter). Bivariate tests and generalized linear mixed models were applied to examine differences in health and healthcare utilization between the two groups. Results: Residents of the LGBTIQ shelter show high rates of chronic and mental illness. They use ambulatory and mental health services more frequently than asylum-seekers from other shelters, including a significantly higher chance of obtaining psychotherapy/psychiatric care in case of need. Emergency room utilization is also higher in the LGBTIQ group. Conclusions: Asylum-seekers from the LGBTIQ shelter face high chronic and mental health burdens. Tailored services in the LGBTIQ shelter help obtain adequate healthcare; they should be scaled up to maximize their potential. Yet, unmet needs remain and warrant further research.
