description: Fashion knowledge plays a pivotal role in helping people in their dressing. In this paper, we present a novel system to automatically harvest fashion knowledge from social media. It unifies three tasks of occasion, person and clothing discovery from multiple modalities of images, texts and metadata. A contextualized fashion concept learning model is applied to leverage the rich contextual information for improving the fashion concept learning performance. At the same time, to counter the label noise within training data, we employ a weak label modeling method to further boost the performance. We build a website to demonstrate the quality of fashion knowledge extracted by our system.

The contribution of halo red giant mass loss to the high-velocity gas falling onto the Milky Way disk
Creators: name: de Boer, Klaas S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The origin of gas falling from the halo toward the disk of the Milky Way is still largely unclear. Here the amount of gas shed by the (older) halo red giants is estimated. The distribution of red giants (RGs) in the halo is not known but that of a subset of stars in the post RG phase, the sdB stars of the horizontal-branch (HB), is. Using the mid-plane density and $z$-distribution of sdB stars, the ratio of sdB stars to all HB stars, and the RG mass loss, the infall due to total mass lost by all halo RG stars at $z>1$ kpc is calculated. For the extended halo component $\dot{M}_{\rm halo RGs} \simeq 1.4 \cdot 10^{-5}$ \msun kpc$^{-2}$ yr$^{-1}$ while the thick disk component RGs contribute $\dot{M}_{\rm thick disk RGs} \simeq 5.4 \cdot 10^{-5}$ \msun kpc$^{-2}$ yr$^{-1}$, each with an uncertainty of a factor 4. The total rate of infall due to RG mass-loss is $\dot{M}_{{\rm RGs at\}z>1 {\rm kpc}} \simeq 7 \cdot 10^{-5}$ \msun kpc$^{-2}$ yr$^{-1}$, a sizeable fraction of the equally uncertain observed rate of infall of material. Since most of the RG stars in the extended halo are old, their mass loss is predominantly metal-poor, while that of the disk RGs is more metal-rich. The galactic fountain flow provides additional metal-rich infall and small galaxies being accreted contribute to the infall of gas as well.

description: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common globally and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a challenge to effective treatment. AMR is a social-biological problem, so interventions require interdisciplinary approaches. This thesis combined social science and microbiology to investigate UTI diagnosis and management in Kenya, including evaluation of the Scattered Light Integrated Collector (SLIC) for rapid UTI detection and antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST). Healthcare worker interviews were conducted to provide insights into determinants of antibiotic prescribing behaviour. A clinical cross-sectional study was conducted to quantitatively evaluate the performance of standard-of-care tests and SLIC for UTI diagnosis and AST. Further interviews explored the feasibility of introducing SLIC into diagnostic pathways. Interviews showed that antibiotic prescribing is a complex socially embedded practice, influenced by prescriber beliefs, treatment guidelines, diagnostic uncertainty, patient expectations/pressure, and poor communication between clinical and laboratory teams. Quantitative microbiology identified 124 positive urine cultures from 552 symptomatic patients. Urine dipstick and microscopy results were poorly predictive of positive urine culture, but algorithms combining dipstick results with key urinary symptoms and fever increased the probability of case detection. AMR, determined by disk-diffusion, was common, contributing to inappropriate empirical therapy in 38/95 (40%) of patients. Compared to urine culture, SLIC had UTI-detection sensitivity of 86% (95% CI: 79-91%) and specificity of 98% (95%CI: 96-99%). The agreement between SLIC AST and disk diffusion was 94%, higher than direct susceptibility (DST) which was 82%. SLIC’s DST and AST results were available in 3 hours and 26 hours respectively, highlighting opportunities to shorten UTI diagnostic pathways. Feasibility interviews suggested the need to consider how SLIC implementation impacts structures and professional roles of end-users. This thesis demonstrates the value of interdisciplinary methods to evaluate novel diagnostic technology in settings of intended use and provides early data on the potential value of SLIC for UTI diagnosis and AMR detection.

description: This article examines illustrations of the zodiac signs on birth amulets from German-
Jewish printing houses from the 18th century. These woodcuts are part of a long
tradition of astrological references in Jewish art and literature. However, the amulet
texts themselves do not contain any astrological topics. What, then, is the relationship
of the woodcuts to the text and to the function of the amulets? By contextualizing the
images with other contemporary traditions of illustration, this article provides three
interpretation models which can explain the choice of the zodiac signs on the amulets.

description: In situ research on cometary chemistry began when measurements from the Giotto mission at comet 1P/Halley revealed the presence of complex organics in the coma. New telescopes and space missions have provided detailed remote and in situ measurements of the composition of cometary volatiles. Recently, the Rosetta mission to comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko more than doubled the number of parent species and the number of isotopic ratios known in comets. 39 of the 66 parent species have also been detected in pre- and proto-stellar clouds, making the similarities of cometary ices with pre-stellar material very intriguing. Most isotopic ratios are non-solar. The variations in D/H in water between different comets indicate a large range in the protoplanetary disk where comets formed. All of these results point to a non-homogeneized protoplanetary disk where comets received their material. This diverse origin is in contrast to the Sun, who received its material from the bulk of the collapsing cloud. Detection of N2 and Ar in the coma of 67P and the presence of very volatile S2 point to low formation temperature of 20-30 K of the comet. The xenon isotopic ratios measured in 67P can explain the long standing question about the origin of the terrestrial atmospheric xenon. While we can exclude comets as being the source of the bulk terrestrial water due to their generally high D/H, the noble gases in the Earth atmosphere are compatible with a cometary delivery. This means that the amount of organics delivered by comets may be highly significant.

The dots are Fe/Mo(110) self-assembled in UHV, with sub-micron size and a hexagonal shape. The angular variations were quantitatively reproduced by micromagnetic simulations. Discontinuities in the variations are observed, and shown to result from bifurcations related to the interplay of the non-uniform magnetization state with the shape of the dot.

description: We show how to deduce Rellich inequalities from Hardy inequalities on infinite graphs. Specifically, the obtained Rellich inequality gives an upper bound on a function by the Laplacian of the function in terms of weighted norms. These weights involve the Hardy weight and a function which satisfies an eikonal inequality. The results are proven first for Laplacians and are extended to Schrödinger operators afterwards.

description: Recently we have shown that the striking angular dependent magnetoresistance in the low temperature phase (LTP) of alpha-(BEDT-TTF)_2KHg(SCN)_4 is consistently described in terms of unconventional charge density wave (UCDW). Here we investigate theoretically the thermoelectric power and the Nernst effect in UDW. The present results account consistently for the recent data of magnetothermopower in alpha-(BEDT-TTF)_2KHg(SCN)_4 obtained by Choi et al. (Phys. Rev. B, 65, 205119 (2002)). This confirms further our identification of LTP in this salt as UCDW. We propose also that the Nernst effect provides a clear signature of UDW.

description: Whether it is object detection, model reconstruction, laser odometry, or point cloud registration: Plane extraction is a vital component of many robotic systems. In this paper, we propose a strictly probabilistic method to detect finite planes in organized 3-D laser range scans. An agglomerative hierarchical clustering technique, our algorithm builds planes from bottom up, always extending a plane by the point that decreases the measurement likelihood of the scan the least. In contrast to most related methods, which rely on heuristics like orthogonal point-to-plane distance, we leverage the ray path information to compute the measurement likelihood. We evaluate our approach not only on the popular SegComp benchmark, but also provide a challenging synthetic dataset that overcomes SegComp's deficiencies. Both our implementation and the suggested dataset are available at www.github.com/acschaefer/ppe.

Consequences of Gravitational Tunneling Radiation
Creators: name: Rabinowitz, Mario
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Gravitational tunneling radiation (GTR) from a black hole is similar to electric field emission of electrons from a metal. There is always a second body to give the gravitational barrier of a black hole a finite rather than infinite width so that a particle can escape by tunneling. Thus GTR may be emitted from black holes in a process differing from that of Hawking radiation (HR) with broad ranging astrophysical ramifications. HR of an "isolated" black hole is an abstraction which has not been detected in three decades, and which may not exist. GTR is beamed, in contrast to HR, which is isotropic. Little black holes may account for much of the dark matter of the universe, and hence the anomalous rotation of spiral galaxies, as well as contribute to the accelerated expansion of the universe. The absence of HR permits the existence of little black hole gravitationally bound atoms with quantized orbits and quantized gravitational radiation. Since some theories speculate that the early universe may have existed in n-dimensional space, certain results will be presented both for general n-space and for the 3-space in which we live. An inconsistency between quantum mechanics and the equivalence principle is demonstrated. It is shown that angular momentum cannot be quantized in the usual manner in 4-space, with possible consequences for Kaluza-Klein theory. An hypothesis is presented for reducing the enormously too-large vacuum zero-point energy. String theory may be impacted by the finding that atoms are not energetically stable in higher than 3-space. GTR avoids the black hole lost information paradox.

description: An isoperimetric optimal control problem with non-convex cost is considered for a class of nonlinear control systems with periodic boundary conditions. This problem arises in chemical engineering as the maximization of the product of non-isothermal reactions by consuming a fixed amount of input reactants. It follows from the Pontryagin maximum principle that the optimal controls are piecewise constant in the considered case. We focus on a parametrization of optimal controls in terms of switching times in order to estimate the cost under different switching strategies. We exploit the Chen-Fliess functional expansion of solutions to the considered nonlinear system with bang-bang controls to satisfy the boundary conditions and evaluate the cost analytically for small periods. In contrast to the previous results in this area, the system under consideration is not control-affine, and the integrand of the cost depends on the state. This approach is applied to non-isothermal chemical reactions with simultaneous modulation of the input concentration and the volumetric flow-rate.

Our observations reveal for the first time, the bipolar CO outflows and the dusty disks (plus envelopes) that are energizing the extended and irradiated HH objects far from the pillars. We find that the masses of the disks$+$envelopes are about 0.1 M$_\odot$ and of the bipolar outflows are between 10$^{-3}$ - 10$^{-4}$ M$_\odot$, which suggests that they could be low- or maybe intermediate- mass protostars. Moreover, we suggest that these young low-mass stars are likely embedded Class 0/I protostars with high-accretion rates. We also show the kinematics of the gas in the pillars together with their respective gas masses (0.1 -- 0.2 M$_\odot$). We estimate that the pillars will be photo-evaporated in 10$^4$ to 10$^5$ years by the massive and luminous stars located in the Trumpler 14 cluster. Finally, given the short photo-evaporated timescales and that the protostars in these pillars are still very embedded, we suggest that the disks inside of the pillars will be quickly affected by the radiation of the massive stars, forming proplyds, like those observed in Orion.

description: The next generation of ground- and space-based telescopes will be able to observe rocky Earth-like planets in the near future, transiting their host star. We explore how the transmission spectrum of Earth changed through its geological history. These transmission spectra provide a template for how to characterize an Earth-like exoplanet - from a young prebiotic world to a modern Earth. They also allow us to explore at what point in its evolution a distant observer could identify life on our Pale Blue Dot and other worlds like it. We chose atmosphere models representative of five geological epochs of Earth's history, corresponding to a prebiotic high CO2-world 3.9 billion years ago (Ga), an anoxic world around 3.5 Ga, and 3 epochs through the rise of oxygen from 0.2 percent to present atmospheric levels of 21 percent. Our transmission spectra show atmospheric spectral features, which would show a remote observer that Earth had a biosphere since about 2 billion years ago. These high-resolution transmission spectral database of Earth through geological time from the VIS to the IR is available online and can be used as a tool to optimize our observation strategy, train retrieval methods, and interpret upcoming observations with JWST, the Extremely Large Telescopes and future mission concepts like Origins, HabEx, and LUOVIR.

description: Most robot mapping techniques for lidar sensors tessellate the environment into pixels or voxels and assume uniformity of the environment within them. Although intuitive, this representation entails disadvantages: The resulting grid maps exhibit aliasing effects and are not differentiable. In the present paper, we address these drawbacks by introducing a novel mapping technique that does neither rely on tessellation nor on the assumption of piecewise uniformity of the space, without increasing memory requirements. Instead of representing the map in the position domain, we store the map parameters in the discrete frequency domain and leverage the continuous extension of the inverse discrete cosine transform to convert them to a continuously differentiable scalar field in the position domain, which we call DCT map. A DCT map assigns to each point in space a lidar decay rate, which models the local permeability of the space for laser rays. In this way, the map can describe objects of different laser permeabilities, from completely opaque to completely transparent. DCT maps represent lidar measurements significantly more accurate than grid maps, Gaussian process occupancy maps, and Hilbert maps, all with the same memory requirements, as demonstrated in our real-world experiments.

description: A particular numerical analytical technique for solving systems of simultaneous equations which offers several advantages to the user over other numerical techniques is discussed. The Gauss-Seidel algorithm is simply an iterative technique which requires no derivatives, matrix inversion, eigenvalue computation, or any other sophisticated numerical methodology. While the technique has been used successfully by a few large scale model builders and by the authors for several commodity models, the experience gained in the use of the technique has not been generally disseminated. Obtaining convergence with such an iterative technique is critically dependent on a number of factors which are taken up in some detail by the authors.

description: The violation of Leggett-Garg type inequalities (LGtIs) is studied on a two level atom, driven by an external field in the presence of a squeezed thermal reservoir. The violations are observed in the underdamped regime where the spontaneous transition rate is much smaller compared to the Rabi frequency. Increase in thermal effects is found to decrease the extent of violation as well as the time over which the violation lasts. With increase in the value squeezing parameter the extent of violation of LGtIs is seen to reduce. The violation of LGtIs is favored by increase in the driving frequency. Further, the interplay of the degree of violation and strength of the measurements is studied. It is found that the maximum violation occurs for ideal projective measurements.

description: A 14 equation recursive model is developed for (1) flue-cured acreage, (2) burley acreage, (3) flue-cured price, (4) burley price, and (5) consumer demand for cigarettes. The coefficients are estimated using data for 1954-70. The reduced form and the impact multipliers are derived. The multipliers are used to illustrate the impact of a 3.5-cent increase in the support rate for flue-cured tobacco. A comparison of the reduced-form estimated values with observed values of 14 endogenous variables showed a good fit for the model over the period studied.

description: The growth of large-scale cosmic structure is a beautiful exemplification of how complexity can emerge in our Universe, starting from simple initial conditions and simple physical laws. Using {\enzo} cosmological numerical simulations, I applied tools from Information Theory (namely, "statistical complexity") to quantify the amount of complexity in the simulated cosmic volume, as a function of cosmic epoch and environment. This analysis can quantify how much difficult to predict, at least in a statistical sense, is the evolution of the thermal, kinetic and magnetic energy of the dominant component of ordinary matter in the Universe (the intragalactic medium plasma). The most complex environment in the simulated cosmic web is generally found to be the periphery of large-scale structures (e.g. galaxy clusters and filaments), where the complexity is on average $\sim 10-10^2$ times larger than in more rarefied regions, even if the latter dominate the volume-integrated complexity of the simulated Universe. If the energy evolution of gas in the cosmic web is measured on a $\approx 100 $ $\rm kpc/h$ resolution and over a $\approx 200$ $\rm Myr$ timescale, its total complexity is the range of $\sim 10^{16}-10^{17} \rm ~bits$, with little dependence on the assumed gas physics, cosmology or cosmic variance.

Ultimate Fate of Constrained Voters

description: We determine the ultimate fate of individual opinions in a socially-interacting population of leftists, centrists, and rightists. In an elemental interaction between agents, a centrist and a leftist can become both centrists or both become leftists with equal rates (and similarly for a centrist and a rightist). However leftists and rightists do not interact. This interaction step between pairs of agents is applied repeatedly until the system can no longer evolve. In the mean-field limit, we determine the exact probability that the system reaches consensus (either leftist, rightist, or centrist) or a frozen mixture of leftists and rightists as a function of the initial composition of the population. We also determine the mean time until the final state is reached. Some implications of our results for the ultimate fate in a limit of the Axelrod model are discussed.

description: Four strategies for farm growth are analyzed and compared on the basis of ownership, equity, and productive capacity achieved, and on the basis of resistance to adversity. The primary tool of analysis was a model utilizing a stochastic simulator interfaced with both ex ante and ex post linear programming routines. The performance of the growth strategies differed markedly with respect to the various indicators. It appeared that little was gained from using a stochastic model rather than a deterministic one.

Cosmological string models from Milne spaces and SL(2,Z) orbifold
Creators: name: Russo, J. G.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The $n+1$-dimensional Milne Universe with extra free directions is used to construct simple FRW cosmological string models in four dimensions, describing expansion in the presence of matter with $p=k ρ$, $k=(4-n)/3n$. We then consider the n=2 case and make SL(2,Z) orbifold identifications. The model is surprisingly related to the null orbifold with an extra reflection generator. The study of the string spectrum involves the theory of harmonic functions in the fundamental domain of SL(2,Z). In particular, from this theory one can deduce a bound for the energy gap and the fact that there are an infinite number of excitations with a finite degeneracy. We discuss the structure of wave functions and give examples of physical winding states becoming light near the singularity.

description: Introduction: The participation of students in regular physical activity (PA) is a crucial aspect of their overall health. Therefore, it is important to identify factors or conditions that can increase their engagement in such activities.
Objectives: This study aimed to examine the impact of supporting the need for novelty on motivation and intention to engage in PA. Methods: The research employed a descriptive-correlation method and involved 384 middle school students, comprising of 192 boys and 192 girls. Standard questionnaires were used to collect data, which were then analyzed using the structural equation method. Results: The results of the path analysis revealed that supporting the need for novelty positively and significantly influenced the satisfaction of psychological needs, including autonomy, competence, relatedness, and novelty, as well as autonomous motivation. However, it had an inverse and significant effect on controlled motivation. Furthermore, autonomous motivation had a positive and significant impact on the intention to engage in PA, while controlled motivation had an inverse and significant effect on this intention.
Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance of incorporating novelty in physical education (PE) to motivate students to participate in PA. Therefore, it is crucial for PE teachers to adopt teaching styles that support the need for novelty.

description: The prototype model developed in this paper is a deterministic simulation system, used to develop alternative commodity purchase plans and to show their differential impacts in terms of costs, tradeoffs, and benefits. The mod!!1 incorporates systems of demand parameters to account for economic interdependence among commodities, alternative decision criteria to reflect different emphasis on program objectives, and various constraints to account for program operating restrictions and rcquirements. Thc operation of the model is illustrated by a hypothetical example based on Section 32 purchases for the School Lunch Program. The empirical results are reasonably realistic and provide ample evidence to demonstrate the model's usefulness and versatility.
