description: In earlier work, we developed a suite of heuristics for building collaborations between researchers. These heuristics are informed by empirical studies that test theories from the social sciences regarding the formation of effective collaborations and teams. In the current work, the initial prototypes of these heuristics were ported to operate over data represented in the VIVO ontology. The C-IKNOW VIVO team recommender is a web application that allows users to assemble teams based on the NU Scholars VIVO endpoint.

Our efforts demonstrate that the architectures and programming techniques of the semantic web are well suited to the problem of building practical software tools that can be leveraged to apply to diverse sources of data.In general, much of the infrastructure required for developing useful researcher recommender systems is available today. In particular, we found that the interoperability between researcher networking systems (RNSs) from diverse institutions and vendorsoffered by the VIVO ontology is a sound basis on which to build researcher networking recommender tools.

The C-IKNOW VIVO Team Recommender aims to assemble teams based on the preferences of an individual. These preferences encompass team size, homophily and network properties of co-authorship networks. The tool also aims to support team assessment feature that would allow individuals to evaluate different potential teamsbased on their preferences.

The ‘VIVO Team Recommender’ utilizes the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard SPARQL query language for real-time retrieval of semantic web data. We found the SPARQL implementation available in open source software to be robust. Further, because programmers can target only the particular data needed, performance is enhanced by reducing unnecessary network traffic. We found the learning curve and technical skills needed for SPARQL programming to be similar to that of more traditional, relational, SQL-based programming competencies which are more generally available.

description: Let $M$ be a super Riemann surface with holomorphic distribution $\mathcal{D}$ and $N$ a symplectic manifold with compatible almost complex structure $J$. We call a map $Φ\colon M\to N$ a super $J$-holomorphic curve if its differential maps the almost complex structure on $\mathcal{D}$ to $J$. Such a super $J$-holomorphic curve is a critical point for the superconformal action and satisfies a super differential equation of first order. Using component fields of this super differential equation and a transversality argument we construct the moduli space of super $J$-holomorphic curves as a smooth subsupermanifold of the space of maps $M\to N$.

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: The inference of a hidden variable's historical value, based on observations before and after the fact, is a controversial subject in quantum mechanics. Here I address the controversy by proposing a formalism that unifies and generalizes some of the previous proposals for the task, including the quantum minimum-mean-square-error estimators proposed by Ohki, the generalized conditional expectation proposed by Accardi and Cecchini, the quantum smoothing theory proposed by Tsang, the optimal observables for parameter estimation proposed by Personick, Belavkin, and Grishanin, and the weak values proposed by Aharonov, Albert, and Vaidman. The formalism is based on Ohki's suggestion of a distance between two observables in the Heisenberg picture, which remains well defined for incompatible observables and serves as a more general foundation for quantum inference than Belavkin's nondemolition principle.

description: The increased production and consumption of biomass renewable based materials and fuels could lead to substantial changes in the way land is used. It is crucial, therefore, to adopt policy instruments in order to mitigate land use change resulting from environmental and social risks (e.g. loss of carbon stocks, loss of biodiversity, land grabbing). Based on an analysis of existing policies, as well as STAR-ProBio findings, this deliverable aims to deliver recommendations to policy makers when developing bioeconomy and in particular bio-based products related policies. It focuses on land use governance mechanisms enabling to mitigate the risk of the unwanted effects of land use change, whenever the use of renewable raw materials is promoted in policies and legislation. The general approach of this policy overview was to distinguish between policies whose aim is to promote the use of biomass, and can hence be seen as a driver of land use and land use change, and on the other hand, policies laying down requirements on how land may be used. In particular we reflect on zoning and protected areas (1); monitoring mechanisms (2); mandatory targets and objectives on best practices and low impact products (3) caps on and bans of most impactful practices and high impact products (4); financial incentives and market instruments (5); and validation and assurance through certification (6).

description: In this article, we study the complex symmetry of compositions operators $C_ϕf=f\circ ϕ$ induced on weighted Bergman spaces $A^2_β(\mathbb{D}),\ β\geq -1,$ by analytic self-maps of the unit disk. One of ours main results shows that $ϕ$ has a fixed point in $\mathbb{D}$ whenever $C_ϕ$ is complex symmetric. Our works establishes a strong relation between complex symmetry and cyclicity. By assuming $β\in \mathbb{N}$ and $ϕ$ is an elliptic automorphism of $\mathbb{D}$ which not a rotation, we show that $C_ϕ$ is not complex symmetric whenever $ϕ$ has order greater than $2(3+β).$

description: Author name disambiguation is a challenging problem in computer science. The problem arises from the fact that many authors share similar or identical names. Although some scholarly databases assign unique author identifiers, levels of accuracy are often unacceptable—especially for authors with common names. Existing algorithms have largely not leveraged institutional data on individual researchers. We are extending ReCiter, an agglomerative clustering algorithm for author name disambiguation, for use in publication management at our institution. The system uses available institutional data on researchers, including primary and secondary departments, history of co-investigatorships on grants and co-authorships, favored journals, and years of authors' terminal academic degrees. We are investigating the use of machine learning approaches to optimize system performance, and are planning to make the system available as a suite of freely available, open-source tools.
Laying the foundation for a robust faculty data reporting infrastructure at a medical college

description: Background: In 2014, Weill Cornell Medical College's (WCMC) Information Technologies Services was charged with producing high quality and on demand reports that would empower administrators to make key decisions and fulfill external reporting requirements. One dean is particularly keen on being able to do analyses in a disintermediated way - that is, without depending on middle men. Information systems originally designed for a single purpose can be serviceable for the occasional ad hoc system-specific reports, but the need for reliable, on-demand, and sophisticated reporting across systems highlighted our key unmet needs. These include: business process improvements for maintaining the systems; building open channels for feedback from end users and other stakeholders; improved processes for supplying data to downstream systems; and documenting and communicating the meaning and context of data. Such considerations cannot be an afterthought.

Analysis: Weill Cornell maintains 10 systems especially relevant to faculty including those that capture faculty reviews, board certifications, hospital credentials, and appointments as well as VIVO. To lay the groundwork for a faculty data reporting infrastructure, we scored all 10 systems according to these custom set of criteria.
 - Authoritative data is accurate
 - Secondary data is accurate
 - Data is well-structured
 - End user can view
 - End user can update, or at least provide feedback
 - Accurate assignment of institutional identifier
 - Avoids duplicate records
 - Well-connected to other systems
 - Relevant information is collected
 - Technically easy to output reports
 - Transparent reporting process

In total, the 110 scores can be grouped as follows:
 - 30 needs improvement
 - 42 okay
 - 28 good
 - 10 unknown

Conclusion: At first blush, producing reports on faculty seems like it should be a straightforward proposition. Similarly, some VIVO implementation sites might assume that the majority of work towards propping up a new VIVO will be devoted to figuring out the technical mechanics of moving data between systems and tools. But this analysis clarified for our key stakeholders and ourselves certain prerequisites for creating a nimble and reliable faculty reporting infrastructure. When they come to fruition, we expect our efforts will also improve the quality of data in our VIVO.

description: A high-resolution broad-spectral-bandwidth spectrometer on a chip would create new opportunities for gas-phase molecular fingerprinting, especially in environmental sensing. A resolution high enough to observe transitions at atmospheric pressure and the simultaneous sensitive detection of multiple atoms or molecules are the key challenges. Here, an electro-optic microring-based dual-comb interferometer, fabricated on a low-loss lithium-niobate-on-insulator nanophotonic platform, demonstrates significant progress towards such an achievement. Spectra spanning 1.6 THz (53 cm-1) at a resolution of 10 GHz (0.33 cm-1) are obtained in a single measurement without requiring frequency scanning or moving parts. The frequency agility of the system enables spectrally-tailored multiplexed sensing, which allows for interrogation of non-adjacent spectral regions, here separated by 6.6 THz (220 cm-1), without compromising the signal-to-noise ratio.

description: Latent Gaussian copula models provide a powerful means to perform multi-view data integration since these models can seamlessly express dependencies between mixed variable types (binary, continuous, zero-inflated) via latent Gaussian correlations. The estimation of these latent correlations, however, comes at considerable computational cost, having prevented the routine use of these models on high-dimensional data. Here, we propose a new computational approach for estimating latent correlations via a hybrid multi-linear interpolation and optimization scheme. Our approach speeds up the current state of the art computation by several orders of magnitude, thus allowing fast computation of latent Gaussian copula models even when the number of variables $p$ is large. We provide theoretical guarantees for the approximation error of our numerical scheme and support its excellent performance on simulated and real-world data. We illustrate the practical advantages of our method on high-dimensional sparse quantitative and relative abundance microbiome data as well as multi-view data from The Cancer Genome Atlas Project. Our method is implemented in the R package mixedCCA, available at https://github.com/irinagain/mixedCCA.

The cases of multiple Fourier-Legendre series and multiple trigonomertic Fourier series are considered in detail. The proof of the mentioned theorem is based on the general properties of multiple Fourier series as well as on the estimate for the fourth moment of approximation error in the method of expansion of iterated Ito stochastic integrals based on generalized multiple Fourier series.

description: This paper resolves the Navier–Stokes Existence and Smoothness Problem for three-dimensional incompressible flows with finite-energy initial conditions. Combining formal PDE techniques (energy inequalities, vorticity analysis, critical scaling) with subconscious intuitive methods aligned with Source and Higher Self, it proves global regularity. No external data collection was involved; the research is theoretical and ethically compliant. The solution reveals that natural stabilizing mechanisms within the equations prevent singularity formation, confirming nature’s inherent fluid coherence.

description: Over-parameterization is ubiquitous nowadays in training neural networks to benefit both optimization in seeking global optima and generalization in reducing prediction error. However, compressive networks are desired in many real world applications and direct training of small networks may be trapped in local optima. In this paper, instead of pruning or distilling over-parameterized models to compressive ones, we propose a new approach based on differential inclusions of inverse scale spaces. Specifically, it generates a family of models from simple to complex ones that couples a pair of parameters to simultaneously train over-parameterized deep models and structural sparsity on weights of fully connected and convolutional layers. Such a differential inclusion scheme has a simple discretization, proposed as Deep structurally splitting Linearized Bregman Iteration (DessiLBI), whose global convergence analysis in deep learning is established that from any initializations, algorithmic iterations converge to a critical point of empirical risks. Experimental evidence shows that DessiLBI achieve comparable and even better performance than the competitive optimizers in exploring the structural sparsity of several widely used backbones on the benchmark datasets. Remarkably, with early stopping, DessiLBI unveils "winning tickets" in early epochs: the effective sparse structure with comparable test accuracy to fully trained over-parameterized models.

description: eagle-i (www.eagle-i.net) is a national network and open-source resource discovery tool funded by Harvard Catalyst. Its goal is to connect researchers with a variety of biomedical resources, such as animal models, cell lines, plasmids, software, instruments, and Core Facility services, while encouraging a culture of attribution for sharing. Two years ago, the eagle-i and VIVO ontologies were brought together and aligned under a common semantic framework under the VIVO-ISF to represent both people and the products of their research, including resources. Since the Profiles Research Networking Software also uses the VIVO ontology, it was a natural extension of these goals and efforts to incorporate information from eagle-i into Profiles RNS. eagle-i was designed with reusability in mind; its semantic architecture allowed us to present resource information in a way that was directly compatible with Profiles. The two aligned ontologies under the VIVO-ISF provided the backbone for data integration between eagle-i and Profiles. As a proof of concept, we began by integrating eagle-i content into Harvard Catalyst Profiles, the researcher networking tool for locating Harvard investigators. Using a call out to an eagle-i API, the Profiles database is refreshed nightly with information about any resources that a researcher has shared in eagle-i. HC Profiles then displays a short summary in that person’s profile, including laboratory names, resource types, and number of resources. The latest version of the Profiles Research Networking Software now contains an optional eagle-i extension that will allow any institution running both eagle-i and Profiles RNS to connect researcher profiles to their resources in eagle-i.
The power of allusion: Beethoven’s Grosse Fuge and Op. 130 VI*
Creators: name: Ross, Megan
Publisher: name: Pavia University Press - Edizioni dell'Università degli Studi di Pavia
Year: 2020

description: Beethoven composed two strikingly different finales for his string quartet in B-flat Major, Op. 130. The original Grosse Fugue finale is an immense and heavy multi-sectioned movement, while the second so-called “little” finale is a lighter sonata-rondo hybrid. The extensive body of scholarship surrounding when and why Beethoven composed both movements almost always promotes the polarity of the two endings. However, I argue that these two movements are more closely related than previously recognized. Specifically, I uncover multiple allusions, or similarities between these finales in terms of melodic and rhythmic contour, texture, and form, that exist in the final versions and which can also be traced back to Beethoven’s sketch material for the second finale. The power of allusion allows us to bridge the gap between these finales and helps to promote the second finale as both a ‘late’ and non-conventional work alongside the original.

On Compatibility and Region of Attraction for Safe, Stabilizing Control Laws

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: A novel control method is proposed to ensure compatibility of safe, stabilizing control laws, i.e., simultaneous satisfaction of asymptotic stability and constraint satisfaction for nonlinear affine systems. The results are dependent on an asymptotically stabilizing control law and a zeroing control barrier function (ZCBF), but do not require a control Lyapunov function (CLF). Sufficient conditions for a region of attraction are defined for which the proposed control safely stabilizes the system, while preserving the decrescent Lyapunov function of the original stabilizing control law. The proposed methodology for nonlinear affine systems requires checking conditions of the system dynamics over a substantial portion of the state space, which may be computationally expensive. To facilitate the search for compatibility, we extend the results to a class of nonlinear systems including mechanical systems for which a novel controller is designed to guarantee passivity, safety, and stability. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the proposed technique.

description: In this paper, we study the Hawking temperature of the BTZ black hole based on the purely topological method proposed by Robson, Villari, and Biancalana (RVB) [Phys. Rev. D 99, 044042 (2019)]. The Hawking temperature of the charged rotating BTZ black hole can be accurately derived by this topological method. We also calculate the Hawking temperature of the BTZ black hole in massive gravity. Because the metric function of the BTZ black hole in massive gravity has a mass term, the corresponding Hawking temperature cannot be derived unless an integral constant is added.

description: In 2014, the University of Virginia began implementing VIVO using Symplectic Elements as a primary source of publication data. A team of librarians at the Claude Moore Health Sciences Library worked to precurate 1,150 profiles for School of Medicine faculty. This work enabled the project to commence at a faster rate than anticipated. Precuration also helped alleviate potential concerns faculty may have had over initial false positive citations and allowed librarians to create customized filters that ensured a high degree of accuracy moving forward. As the product was introduced to departments, the library adopted a curation support role, providing training through consultations, online tutorials, and drop in clinics. The success of the precuration strategy established the library is a key project member, creating additional roles for the library including administrative reporting and data architecture. This paper will discuss the value of library participation in the implementation of VIVO and make an argument for its continued inclusion throughout other facets of the project. The team based curation strategy, lessons learned, and perceived value added will be discussed in detail.

description: Contracts are widely used in the production and sale of U.S agricultural commodities. Contracts provide farmers with a tool for managing income risks, obtaining compensation for higher product quality, and providing assurance for debt financing. Processors use contracts to maintain timely flows of products with desired attributes and greater control over the characteristics and consistency of the products they acquire. In 2017, 49 percent of the value of livestock production was raised under contract agreements—usually between farmers and processors—while contracts governed 21 percent of crop production. The share of crops produced under contract has declined in recent years as farmers turned to other methods for managing risks, such as diversification, hedging through futures markets, and investing in storage.

description: This paper designs a model predictive control (MPC) law for constrained linear systems with stochastic additive disturbances and noisy measurements, minimising a discounted cost subject to a discounted expectation constraint. It is assumed that sensor data is lost with a known probability. Taking into account the data losses modelled by a Bernoulli process, we parameterise the predicted control policy as an affine function of future observations and obtain a convex linear-quadratic optimal control problem. Constraint satisfaction and a discounted cost bound are ensured without imposing bounds on the distributions of the disturbance and noise inputs. In addition, the average long-run undiscounted closed loop cost is shown to be finite if the discount factor takes appropriate values. We analyse robustness of the proposed control law with respect to possible uncertainties in the arrival probability of sensor data and we bound the impact of these uncertainties on constraint satisfaction and the discounted cost. Numerical simulations are provided to illustrate these results.

description: As an open source community, the VIVO Project relies on contributions of effort from its members. The VIVO strategic plan established the VIVO value proposition “VIVO provides an integrated view of the scholarly work of an organization” and two large scale goals supporting the value proposition: 1) Clarify and improve the value proposition; and 2) Promote a more open and networked research ecosystem. The roadmap process is designed to identify features and establish priorities that serve the value proposition and the strategic goals. The roadmap process follows basic principles of open source community development. First, it is open. All members of the community have an opportunity to participate in the roadmap process. Second, it serves the various constituents of the community. VIVO must serve end users, providing features that they can use in their daily work to advance scholarship. Data stewards and system administrators responsible for insuring local VIVO installations have quality data, and that the system accurately and effectively provides services to end-user must see improvement in VIVO relevant to their concerns. And finally, technologists, including developers, ontologists and committers must have environments and tools that support their productivity and creativity in enhancing VIVO.

In this poster we will present the VIVO roadmap process, describing its steps, its participants and the approach it takes to engaging the community and generating a prioritized set of features for future releases of VIVO.

The poster will detail some of the challenges librarians encountered developing this resource, while discussing the tools (such as OpenRefine, née Google Refine) and techniques they used for obtaining, editing, and uploading institutional data into the RDF-based VIVO system. Included will be hard-won tips on developing similar resources: such as "how NOT to anger entire academic departments in one email” and “Explaining RDF without sounding like a Martian.”

The focus on using VIVO as a front-end for an institutional repository created unique difficulties for the team, and this poster will describe the challenges and opportunities inherent in using VIVO in this manner.

description: The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I genes play a critical role within the immune system, both by the presentation of antigens from intracellular pathogens to immunocompetent cells and by the interaction with killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) on natural killer cells (NK cells). Genes of the MHC are highly diverse, and MHC variation can have effects on the immune functionality of individuals; hence, comparisons of MHC diversity among closely related phylogenetic taxa may give insight into the factors responsible for the shaping of its diversity. The four geographically separated chimpanzee subspecies differ in their overall genetic diversity, have different population histories, and are confronted with different pathogens in their natural habitat, all of which may affect MHC class I DNA sequence diversity. Here, we compare the MHC-B exon two DNA sequence diversity from 24 wild western and 46 wild eastern chimpanzees using necropsy and noninvasively collected fecal samples, respectively. We found a higher MHC-B exon two nucleotide diversity, in our western than eastern chimpanzees. The inclusion of previously published MHC-B exon two data from other western and eastern chimpanzees supported this finding. In addition, our results confirm and extend the finding of a very low C1 epitope frequency at eastern chimpanzee MHC-B molecules, which likely affects the ability of these molecules to interact with NK cells. While the understanding of the differing pathogen environments encountered by disparate populations of a species is a challenging endeavor, these findings highlight the potential for these pathogens to selectively shape immune system variation.

description: One challenge of legged locomotion on uneven terrains is to deal with both the discrete problem of selecting a contact surface for each footstep and the continuous problem of placing each footstep on the selected surface. Consequently, footstep planning can be addressed with a Mixed Integer Program (MIP), an elegant but computationally-demanding method, which can make it unsuitable for online planning. We reformulate the MIP into a cardinality problem, then approximate it as a computationally efficient l1-norm minimisation, called SL1M. Moreover, we improve the performance and convergence of SL1M by combining it with a sampling-based root trajectory planner to prune irrelevant surface candidates. Our tests on the humanoid Talos in four representative scenarios show that SL1M always converges faster than MIP. For scenarios when the combinatorial complexity is small (< 10 surfaces per step), SL1M converges at least two times faster than MIP with no need for pruning. In more complex cases, SL1M converges up to 100 times faster than MIP with the help of pruning. Moreover, pruning can also improve the MIP computation time. The versatility of the framework is shown with additional tests on the quadruped robot ANYmal.

description: Notwithstanding the collaborative efforts of the VIVO community, the technical and data related tasks associated with implementing and populating VIVO continue to act as significant barriers to wide adoption of the platform.

In direct response to these challenges, Symplectic has developed a quick and effective means of installing, implementing and populating a production-ready VIVO instance for subscribers of Symplectic's Research Information Management System, Elements.

Titled ‘Zero to VIVO in 7 Days’, this session will introduce how this process works, from the acquisition of a new server through to the population of VIVO using linked data captured in Elements. This new service also includes an analysis of triples captured in VIVO and a report to help inform further data curation inside Elements.

description: The statistical description of the scalar conservation law of the form $ρ_t=H(ρ)_x$ with $H: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ a smooth convex function has been an object of interest when the initial profile $ρ(\cdot,0)$ is random. The special case when $H(ρ)=\frac{ρ^2}{2}$ (Burgers equation) has in particular received extensive interest in the past and is now understood for various random initial conditions. We solve in this paper a conjecture on the profile of the solution at any time $t>0$ for a general class of hamiltonians $H$ and show that it is a stationary piecewise-smooth Feller process. Along the way, we study the excursion process of the two-sided linear Brownian motion $W$ below any strictly convex function $ϕ$ with superlinear growth and derive a generalized Chernoff distribution of the random variable $\text{argmax}_{z \in \mathbb{R}} (W(z)-ϕ(z))$. Finally, when $ρ(\cdot,0)$ is a white noise derived from an abrupt Lévy process, we show that the shocks structure of the solution is a.s discrete at any fixed time $t>0$ under some mild assumptions on $H$.

Skew-amenability of topological groups

description: We study skew-amenable topological groups, i.e., those admitting a left-invariant mean on the space of bounded real-valued functions left-uniformly continuous in the sense of Bourbaki. We prove characterizations of skew-amenability for topological groups of isometries and automorphisms, clarify the connection with extensive amenability of group actions, establish a Følner-type characterization, and discuss closure properties of the class of skew-amenable topological groups. Moreover, we isolate a dynamical sufficient condition for skew-amenability and provide several concrete variations of this criterion in the context of transformation groups. These results are then used to decide skew-amenability for a number of examples of topological groups built from or related to Thompson's group $F$ and Monod's group of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of the real line.

description: The second ISSP survey administered by COMPASS Research Centre at the University of Auckland, with funding support from its Business School, and also the New Zealand European Union Centres Network, via colleagues at UoA and also Victoria University of Wellington.We were short on resources to run the survey in 2014, so this one combines the ISSP modules for 2014 (Citizenship) and 2015 (Work Orientations) into one survey.A verbose rundown on topics covered follows.Citizenship
Qualities of a good citizen; social and political participation; group memberships; importance of different people’s rights in democracy (scale); estimation of political influence possibilities (political efficacy); likeliness of counter-action against an unjust law and expected chance of serious attention to people’s demand.Interest in politics; following of political news; personal trust in the political system; political discussions with friends; level of honesty and fairness in the last national election; corruption in public service; voter participation; voting behaviour (recall); attitudes to changing New Zealand flag.Qualities of being a New Zealander; ethnic vs. national identity; chances of leaving New Zealand in the next five years + reasons for this.Work Orientations
Attitudes towards work; importance of different things in a job; balancing work and family life; discrimination; opinions on trade unions; current employment status.Current financial situation plus changes over time; attitudes towards retirement age.Employed
Preference for full- or part-time employment; preference for more work (and money) or for reduction in working hours; opinions about own job plus presence of "heavy" tasks; freedom in work hours; use of past experience; job satisfaction and pride; chances of looking for another job in the next 12 months; multiple jobs.Unemployed
Ever had a paid job - if so satisfaction in it plus why it ended; desire to have a paid job plus worry about it; willingness to take steps to find a job; advertising oneself; economic support.Demography
Sex; age; marital-status; education; current employment status; hours worked weekly; occupation; working for private or public sector or self-employed; if self-employed: number of employees; supervisor function; trade union membership; current employment status; earnings; family income; household size; religious denomination; attendance of religious services; size of community; type of community: urban-rural area; ethnicity.

description: ERS researchers used data from the Eating & Health Module of the 2014-16 American Time Use Survey to see if time spent eating varies by adult subpopulations. The researchers found that time spent eating increased with age and educational attainment. Healthy weight individuals were found to spend more time eating than those who were overweight or obese.
