description: We develop a robust ranking procedure to uncover trends in variation in antibiotic resistance (AR) rates across hospitals for some antibiotic-bacterium pairs over several years. We illustrate how the method can be used to detect potentially dangerous trends and to direct attention to hospitals' management practices. A robust method is indicated due to the fact that some unusual reported resistance rates may be due to measurement protocol differences and not any real difference in AR rates. Our proposed method is less sensitive to outlier observations than other robust methods. The application on real AR data shows how a dangerous trend in a particular AR rate would be detected. Our results indicate the potential benefits of systematic AR rate collection and AR reporting systems across hospitals.

description: In applied settings, tests of hypothesis where a nuisance parameter is only identifiable under the alternative often reduces into one of Testing One Hypothesis Multiple times (TOHM). Specifically, a fine discretization of the space of the non-identifiable parameter is specified, and the null hypothesis is tested against a set of sub-alternative hypothesis, one for each point of the discretization. The resulting sub-test statistics are then combined to obtain a global p-value. In this paper, we discuss a computationally efficient inferential tool to perform TOHM under stringent significance requirements, such as those typically required in the physical sciences, (e.g., p-value $<10^{-7}$). The resulting procedure leads to a generalized approach to perform inference under non-standard conditions, including non-nested models comparisons.

description: Here is reported a new application of polymer-enhanced capillary transient isotachophoresis for the separation and quantification of the drug digoxin and its primary metabolite digoxigenin coupled with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection facilitated by labeling with two boronic acid-functionalized squarylium dyes of different alkyl side chain lengths, SQ-BA1 and SQ-BA2. The conditions for drug–dye complex formation were optimized, as determined by absorbance and fluorescence spectra, according to solution pH and buffer composition. As digoxin has a digitoxose sugar moiety in its structure, it was shown to exhibit better enhancement in the fluorescence intensity of both dyes than digoxigenin, which lacks this moiety, presumably through the formation of a cyclic boronate ester complex. A comparison of analyte labeling in pre-column and on-column modes was conducted in subsequent capillary electrophoresis-LIF studies, with the latter labeling mode yielding superior sensitivity. However, to achieve the complete resolution of labeled digoxin and digoxigenin analytes, it was necessary to use the modified isotachophoresis method, with added borate ions that may differentially interact with the drug and its metabolite, hence affecting their mobilities. Limits of quantification of the method for the determination of digoxin with SQ-BA1 and SQ-BA2 were 2.61 × 10−3 and 2.82 × 10−3 M and limits of detection were 7.83 × 10−4 and 8.47 × 10−4 M while sensitivities were as great as 5.06 × 109 and 2.89 × 109 M−1, respectively, indicating that the method is suitable for practical analysis.

description: Apparent metastability of the electroweak vacuum poses a number of cosmological questions. These concern evolution of the Higgs field to the current vacuum, and its stability during and after inflation. Higgs-inflaton and non-minimal Higgs-gravity interactions can make a crucial impact on these considerations potentially solving the problems. In this work, we allow for these couplings to be present simultaneously and study their interplay. We find that different combinations of the Higgs-inflaton and non-minimal Higgs-gravity couplings induce effective Higgs mass during and after inflation. This crucially affects the Higgs stability considerations during preheating. In particular, a wide range of the couplings leading to stable solutions becomes allowed.

description: This Letter brings together two topics that, until now, have been the focus of intense but non-overlapping research efforts. The first concerns high harmonic generation in solids, which occurs when intense light field excites highly non-equilibrium electronic response in a semiconductor or a dielectric. The second concerns many-body dynamics in strongly correlated systems such as the Mott insulator. Here we show that high harmonic generation can be used to time-resolve ultrafast many-body dynamics associated with optically driven phase transition, with accuracy far exceeding one cycle of the driving light field. Our work paves the way for time-resolving highly non-equilibrium many body dynamics in strongly correlated systems, with few femtosecond accuracy.

description: The identification of new rare signals in data, the detection of a sudden change in a trend, and the selection of competing models, are among the most challenging problems in statistical practice. These challenges can be tackled using a test of hypothesis where a nuisance parameter is present only under the alternative, and a computationally efficient solution can be obtained by the "Testing One Hypothesis Multiple times" (TOHM) method. In the one-dimensional setting, a fine discretization of the space of the non-identifiable parameter is specified, and a global p-value is obtained by approximating the distribution of the supremum of the resulting stochastic process. In this paper, we propose a computationally efficient inferential tool to perform TOHM in the multidimensional setting. Here, the approximations of interest typically involve the expected Euler Characteristics (EC) of the excursion set of the underlying random field. We introduce a simple algorithm to compute the EC in multiple dimensions and for arbitrary large significance levels. This leads to an highly generalizable computational tool to perform inference under non-standard regularity conditions.

description: The fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common form of inherited intellectual disability, is due to the absence of FMRP, a protein regulating RNA metabolism. Recently, an unexpected function of FMRP in modulating the activity of Adenosine Deaminase Acting on RNA (ADAR) enzymes has been reported both in Drosophila and Zebrafish. ADARs are RNA-binding proteins that increase transcriptional complexity through a post-transcriptional mechanism called RNA editing. To evaluate the ADAR2-FMRP interaction in mammals we analyzed several RNA editing re-coding sites in the fmr1 knockout (KO) mice. Ex vivo and in vitro analysis revealed that absence of FMRP leads to an increase in the editing levels of brain specific mRNAs, indicating that FMRP might act as an inhibitor of editing activity. Proximity Ligation Assay (PLA) in mouse primary cortical neurons and in non-neuronal cells revealed that ADAR2 and FMRP co-localize in the nucleus. The ADAR2-FMRP co-localization was further observed by double-immunogold Electron Microscopy (EM) in the hippocampus. Moreover, ADAR2-FMRP interaction appeared to be RNA independent. Because changes in the editing pattern are associated with neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders, we propose that the increased editing observed in the fmr1-KO mice might contribute to the FXS molecular phenotypes.

description: Non-coding regulatory RNAs fine-tune gene expression post-transcriptionally. In the streptomycetes, rpfA – encoding a muralytic enzyme required for establishing and exiting dormancy – is flanked by non-coding regulatory RNA elements both upstream (riboswitch) and downstream [antisense small RNA (sRNA)]. In Streptomyces coelicolor, the upstream riboswitch decreases rpfA transcript abundance in response to the second messenger cyclic di-AMP, itself involved in cell wall metabolism and dormancy. There is, however, no obvious expression platform associated with this riboswitch and consequently, its mechanism of action is entirely unknown. Using in vitro transcription assays, we discovered that the rpfA riboswitch promoted premature transcription termination in response to cyclic di-AMP. Through an extensive mutational analysis, we determined that attenuation required ligand binding and involved an unusual extended stem-loop region unique to a subset of rpfA riboswitches in the actinobacteria. At the other end of the rpfA gene, an antisense sRNA, termed Scr3097, is expressed opposite the predicted rpfA terminator. Using northern blotting, we found that Scr3097 accumulation mirrored that of the rpfA mRNA. In liquid culture, we detected Scr3097 exclusively in exponential-phase cells, and in plate-grown culture, we observed the sRNA primarily in differentiating cultures. Using mutational analyses, we found that the sRNA increased rpfA mRNA abundance in cells. Taken together, our work revealed multiple regulatory RNAs controlling rpfA expression in the streptomycetes.

description: Gordon and McMahon defined a two-variable greedoid polynomial $ f(G;t,z) $ for any greedoid $ G $. They studied greedoid polynomials for greedoids associated with rooted graphs and rooted digraphs. They proved that greedoid polynomials of rooted digraphs have the multiplicative direct sum property. In addition, these polynomials are divisible by $ 1 + z $ under certain conditions. We compute the greedoid polynomials for all rooted digraphs up to order six. A greedoid polynomial $ f(D) $ of a rooted digraph $ D $ of order $ n $ GM-factorises if $ f(D) = f(G) \cdot f(H) $ such that $ G $ and $ H $ are rooted digraphs of order at most $ n $ and $ f(G),f(H) \ne 1 $. We study the GM-factorability of greedoid polynomials of rooted digraphs, particularly those that are not divisible by $ 1 + z $. We give some examples and an infinite family of rooted digraphs that are not direct sums but their greedoid polynomials GM-factorise.

description: Sorption affinity of copper flotation waste from KGHM toward Cd(II), Cr(III), Cu(II), and Pb(II) ions was investigated in this work. Batch sorption studies, using single-element synthetic aqueous solutions at various pH (2–12), contact time (10–300 min), initial concentration (100–5000 mg dm−3; 1–100 mg dm−3 for Cd(II)) and adsorbent dose (25–200 g dm−3), were performed. Bonding strength of adsorbed metals was tested from the degree of desorption. The maximum metal removal was observed at pH 5–8, ≥120 min reaction time, and 25 g dm−3 adsorbent dose. Maximum sorption capacities of studied material were 41.6, 58.8, and 83.8 mg g−1 for Cr(III), Cu(II), and Pb(II), respectively, for 5000 mg dm−3 initial concentration, and 0.86 mg g−1 for Cd(II) for initial concentration of 50 mg dm−3. Sorption isotherms were very well fitted to Langmuir (Cd, Cr, Pb) and Freundlich (Cu) models. Sorption kinetics was nearly ideally fitted to pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Desorption studies showed that most of Cr(III) (98.5%) and Pb(II) (67.3%) ions remained bound to the surface, indicating that the chemisorption dominated as a controlling process. On the other hand, mostly desorbed were Cd(II) (98.5%) and Cu(II) (90.3%) ions, which indicated that processes like physisorption or precipitation were prevailing.

description: Design of facilities network, allocation of customers to be served from the facilities and their operations have strong economic, environmental and social impacts. Although the decisions in the facility location problem may have varying effects on these impacts, simultaneous consideration of these effects in the early stages of decision-making for facility location selection and network plan has attracted limited attention in the facility location decision literature. Specifically, the social dimension and mathematical modelling are rarely used. In this paper, we present a decision support framework for the facility location problem that incorporates the triple bottom line accounting of sustainability. The framework is a valuable integration of mathematical modelling embedding the criteria with proper measurement indicators in a multi-objective model, perspectives of the related stakeholders, any thresholds and assumption, model analysis, and the decision-maker strategy to find the best-fit alternative. We demonstrate our methodological approach to establish a supply network for digital products in Turkey using real data. The results indicate that the method can balance the economic, environmental and social pillars, based on limitations of the three pillars and strategic perspective of the decision-maker. The decision-maker can interpret the interactions among the three pillars of sustainability and can make his decision by analysing the balance between them.

description: Neural message passing algorithms for semi-supervised classification on graphs have recently achieved great success. However, for classifying a node these methods only consider nodes that are a few propagation steps away and the size of this utilized neighborhood is hard to extend. In this paper, we use the relationship between graph convolutional networks (GCN) and PageRank to derive an improved propagation scheme based on personalized PageRank. We utilize this propagation procedure to construct a simple model, personalized propagation of neural predictions (PPNP), and its fast approximation, APPNP. Our model's training time is on par or faster and its number of parameters on par or lower than previous models. It leverages a large, adjustable neighborhood for classification and can be easily combined with any neural network. We show that this model outperforms several recently proposed methods for semi-supervised classification in the most thorough study done so far for GCN-like models. Our implementation is available online.

description: This work explores the impacts of the distributional and peer-induced fairness concerns with both advantageous and disadvantageous inequities on a two-echelon closed-loop supply chain comprising a manufacturer and two downstream competitors who engage in forward and reverse channel competitions. Four complete information Stackelberg game models are formulated for different fairness concern considerations. The equilibrium results of these models are obtained through backward induction, and the impacts of the important parameters are examined through theoretical analyses. Numerical analyses are conducted to verify the theoretical results and sensitivity analyses are performed to verify the impacts of the key parameters. Some important findings are obtained. First, the manufacturer’s and the dominating competitor’s profits increase when considering peer-induced fairness concerns, and the downstream competitors sacrifice their profits to reduce the manufacturer’s profit when considering distributional fairness concerns. Second, the simultaneous consideration of distributional and peer-induced fairness concerns mitigates the downstream competitors’ profit losses under certain conditions. Finally, the peer-induced fairness concern consideration aggravates the reverse channel competition, resulting in the downstream competitors’ profit losses. This study provides insights into the complex influences of fairness concerns on the decisions in closed-loop supply chains.

description: We consider the problem of characterizing the `duality gap' between sparse synthesis- and cosparse analysis-driven signal models through the lens of spectral graph theory, in an effort to comprehend their precise equivalencies and discrepancies. By detecting and exploiting the inherent connectivity structure, and hence, distinct set of properties, of rank-deficient graph difference matrices such as the graph Laplacian, we are able to substantiate discrepancies between the cosparse analysis and sparse synthesis models, according to which the former constitutes a constrained and translated instance of the latter. In view of a general union of subspaces model, we conduct a study of the associated subspaces and their composition, which further facilitates the refinement of specialized uniqueness and recovery guarantees, and discover an underlying structured sparsity model based on the graph incidence matrix. Furthermore, for circulant graphs, we provide an exact characterization of underlying subspaces by deriving closed-form expressions as well as demonstrating transitional properties between equivalence and non-equivalence for a parametric generalization of the graph Laplacian.

description: Political protest is the expression of the non-acquiescence about a decision or a set of political decisions, or the non-acknowledgement of the legitimacy for the decision making process. The political intervention is assumed to be, in that case, extremely relevant for the political and social awareness. – Felgueiras Sérgio. Geração á Rasca . Chiado Books , 2017 The theme “urban violence” appears, therefore, as an interdisciplinary study proposal, in a nucleus integrated by several areas of social sciences (Sociology, Pedagogy, Philosophy, Anthropology, Economics, Psychology, Communication, Law, History and other related areas), with the purpose of understanding, through research and scientific work, the various aspects of urban violence, and directing socio-ideological changes that will guide public policies aimed at the causes and consequences of violence in this environment. Contexts of violence The hyper concentration of metropolises, over information and communication and information technologies in the centres of power and economic life, hyper-specialization and the increase in job insecurity produce an increasing number of excluded people who are left on the fringes of the labour market. Employment and social and informational inclusion, exposed and vulnerable to unconventional, marginal, anomic and criminal forms of survival. There is a culture of violence associated with large urban centres, with a high population density, due to social inequality, poverty and poor living conditions, marginality, the disruption of institutions such as the family, migrations of populations and ethnic groups, violent alternative cultures, etc. Urban violence, violence associated with terrorism, armed conflicts, natural disasters, new epidemics, the effects of pollution, the greenhouse effect, illegal markets that proliferate with globalization, trafficking and organized crime, trade blood and organs, the precariousness of jobs, the financial situation of individuals, the difficulty of housing, the precariousness of retirement pensions, the new risks with food, create situations of violence and conflicts.

description: We present a novel framework for collaboration amongst a team of robots performing Pose Graph Optimization (PGO) that addresses two important challenges for multi-robot SLAM: i) that of enabling information exchange "on-demand" via Active Rendezvous without using a map or the robot's location, and ii) that of rejecting outlying measurements. Our key insight is to exploit relative position data present in the communication channel between robots to improve groundtruth accuracy of PGO. We develop an algorithmic and experimental framework for integrating Channel State Information (CSI) with multi-robot PGO; it is distributed, and applicable in low-lighting or featureless environments where traditional sensors often fail. We present extensive experimental results on actual robots and observe that using Active Rendezvous results in a 64% reduction in ground truth pose error and that using CSI observations to aid outlier rejection reduces ground truth pose error by 32%. These results show the potential of integrating communication as a novel sensor for SLAM.

description: Virtual Reality (VR) and its applications have attracted significant and increasing attention. However, the requirements of much larger file sizes, different storage formats, and immersive viewing conditions pose significant challenges to the goals of acquiring, transmitting, compressing and displaying high quality VR content. Towards meeting these challenges, it is important to be able to understand the distortions that arise and that can affect the perceived quality of displayed VR content. It is also important to develop ways to automatically predict VR picture quality. Meeting these challenges requires basic tools in the form of large, representative subjective VR quality databases on which VR quality models can be developed and which can be used to benchmark VR quality prediction algorithms. Towards making progress in this direction, here we present the results of an immersive 3D subjective image quality assessment study. In the study, 450 distorted images obtained from 15 pristine 3D VR images modified by 6 types of distortion of varying severities were evaluated by 42 subjects in a controlled VR setting. Both the subject ratings as well as eye tracking data were recorded and made available as part of the new database, in hopes that the relationships between gaze direction and perceived quality might be better understood. We also evaluated several publicly available IQA models on the new database, and also report a statistical evaluation of the performances of the compared IQA models.

description: Purpose — The primary objective in this study was to describe the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) of total hip replacement (THR) patients 6 years after index surgery. Second, we sought to analyze how the preoperative, 1- and 6-year outcomes were associated. Patients and methods — By assessing the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR), 15,755 patients with complete follow-up were included in the study group. 1-year and 6-year response rates were 93% and 87%. PROMs used by the SHAR include the EQ-5D instrument, and 2 modified visual analogue scales, 1 for pain and 1 for satisfaction. We used a multivariable linear regression model to examine the relationship between preoperative, 1-year, and 6-year outcome. Results — On average, patient-reported outcomes 6 years after THR were satisfactory. Though there was some deterioration in all mean 6-year PROMs, the patient-reported outcome after 6 years strongly resembled that of the 1-year results. The 1-year follow-up was the strongest factor associated with the 6-year results. Interpretation — There is little deterioration in patient-reported outcomes 6 years after THR compared with the 1-year results. Although the 1-year follow-up was the strongest predictor of the 6-year results it could not alone explain the results, thus supporting the utility of the 6-year follow-up in THR patients.

description: Graph convolution is the core of most Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and usually approximated by message passing between direct (one-hop) neighbors. In this work, we remove the restriction of using only the direct neighbors by introducing a powerful, yet spatially localized graph convolution: Graph diffusion convolution (GDC). GDC leverages generalized graph diffusion, examples of which are the heat kernel and personalized PageRank. It alleviates the problem of noisy and often arbitrarily defined edges in real graphs. We show that GDC is closely related to spectral-based models and thus combines the strengths of both spatial (message passing) and spectral methods. We demonstrate that replacing message passing with graph diffusion convolution consistently leads to significant performance improvements across a wide range of models on both supervised and unsupervised tasks and a variety of datasets. Furthermore, GDC is not limited to GNNs but can trivially be combined with any graph-based model or algorithm (e.g. spectral clustering) without requiring any changes to the latter or affecting its computational complexity. Our implementation is available online.

description: Particle physics experiments use likelihood ratio tests extensively to compare hypotheses and to construct confidence intervals. Often, the null distribution of the likelihood ratio test statistic is approximated by a $χ^2$ distribution, following a theorem due to Wilks. However, many circumstances relevant to modern experiments can cause this theorem to fail. In this paper, we review how to identify these situations and construct valid inference.

description: A representative model in integrative analysis of two high-dimensional correlated datasets is to decompose each data matrix into a low-rank common matrix generated by latent factors shared across datasets, a low-rank distinctive matrix corresponding to each dataset, and an additive noise matrix. Existing decomposition methods claim that their common matrices capture the common pattern of the two datasets. However, their so-called common pattern only denotes the common latent factors but ignores the common pattern between the two coefficient matrices of these common latent factors. We propose a new unsupervised learning method, called the common and distinctive pattern analysis (CDPA), which appropriately defines the two types of data patterns by further incorporating the common and distinctive patterns of the coefficient matrices. A consistent estimation approach is developed for high-dimensional settings, and shows reasonably good finite-sample performance in simulations. Our simulation studies and real data analysis corroborate that the proposed CDPA can provide better characterization of common and distinctive patterns and thereby benefit data mining.
