A New Approach to Computing
Creators: name: Basu, Nirmalya
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022

description: I have proposed here a new scheme of representing information which is that any physical quantity with a specific identity can be considered to uniquely represent a distinct piece of information (a piece of information different from the one that the physical quantity itself conveys which is that of its identity). Doing so is expected to bring advantage to computing.

description: Gravitational wave memory is a nonoscillatory correction to the gravitational wave strain predicted by general relativity, which has yet to be detected. Within general relativity, its dominant component, known as the null memory, can be understood as arising from the backreaction of the energy carried by gravitational waves, and therefore it corresponds to a direct manifestation of the nonlinearity of the theory. In this paper, we investigate the null-memory prediction in a broad class of modified gravity theories, with the aim of exploring potential lessons to be learned from future measurements of the memory effect. Based on Isaacson's approach to the leading-order field equations, we in particular compute the null memory for the most general scalar-vector-tensor theory with second-order equations of motion and vanishing field potentials. We find that the functional form of the null memory is only modified through the potential presence of additional radiative null energy sources in the theory. We subsequently generalize this result by proving a theorem that states that the simple structure of the tensor null-memory equation remains unaltered in any metric theory whose massless gravitational fields satisfy decoupled wave equations to first order in perturbation theory, which encompasses a large class of viable extensions to general relativity.

description: Groundwater resources are critical for the freshwater supply of humanity, for drinking water purpose and agricultural irrigation. At the same time, many aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems are directly or indirectly dependent of groundwater. Climate change, population increase and the resulting changes in land use and water demand exert increasing pressure on these valuable but vulnerable groundwater resources, often resulting in declining water tables and spring discharge, saltwater intrusions in coastal aquifers, reduced environmental baseflow and, consequently, deterioration of ecosystems and water-use conflicts. This session addresses all aspects of groundwater availability, both at global scales and in relevant regional case studies, in different types of aquifers – unconsolidated aquifers, fractured rocks and karst aquifer systems, with a particular focus on the Alpine and Mediterranean regions. Contributions presenting new experimental, conceptual and modelling methods and tools to address different aspects of groundwater availability across all scales are also welcome.

description: We carry out a layer-by-layer investigation to understand electron transport across metal-insulator-metal junctions. Interfacial structures of junctions were studied and characterized using first-principles density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation. We found that as a function of the number of crystal layers the calculated transmission coefficients of multilayer silicene junctions decay much slower than for BN-based junctions We revisited the semiclassical Boltzmann theory of electronic transport and applied to multilayer silicene and BN-based junctions. The calculated resistance in the high-transmission regime is smaller than that provided by the Landauer formula. As the thickness of the barrier increases, results from the Boltzmann and the Landauer formulae converge. We provide a upper limit in the transmission coefficient below which, the Landauer method becomes valid. Quantitatively, when the transmission coefficient is lower than $ \sim 0.05 $ per channel, the error introduced by the Landauer formula for calculating the resistance is negligible. In addition, we found that the resistance of a junction is not entirely determined by the averaged transmission, but also by the distribution of the transmission over the first Brillouin zone.

description: L’articolo presenta i risultati di una ricerca sul rapporto tra gli insegnanti della scuola dell’infanzia e i genitori immigrati. Essa si colloca nel quadro di un più ampio progetto interuniversitario nazionale ed è stata condotta in sei scuole dell’infanzia di Firenze con la più alta concentrazione di allievi figli di immigrati. Attraverso la somministrazione di due questionari, uno rivolto ai genitori immigrati, l’altro agli insegnanti, la ricerca ha inteso conoscere i caratteri della relazione che intercorre tra questi due attori educativi. In questa sede sono riportati i risultati dell’analisi dei dati emersi dal primo questionario. Anzitutto viene fornito il profilo delle famiglie intervistate, composte da genitori residenti in città da un certo numero di anni e che hanno già sperimentato l’incontro con il mondo scolastico italiano attraverso i nidi fiorentini. Sul piano della relazione con la scuola dell’infanzia, emerge un quadro nel complesso positivo, segnato da una discreta partecipazione dei genitori alle attività scolastiche e da un generale apprezzamento dei servizi educativi nonostante alcuni elementi di fragilità come la scarsa conoscenza dell’organizzazione della scuola italiana.

description: We present and release in open source format a sparse linear solver which efficiently exploits heterogeneous parallel computers. The solver can be easily integrated into scientific applications that need to solve large and sparse linear systems on modern parallel computers made of hybrid nodes hosting NVIDIA Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) accelerators. The work extends our previous efforts in the exploitation of a single GPU accelerator and proposes an implementation, based on the hybrid MPI-CUDA software environment, of a Krylov-type linear solver relying on an efficient Algebraic MultiGrid (AMG) preconditioner already available in the BootCMatchG library. Our design for the hybrid implementation has been driven by the best practices for minimizing data communication overhead when multiple GPUs are employed, yet preserving the efficiency of the single GPU kernels. Strong and weak scalability results on well-known benchmark test cases of the new version of the library are discussed. Comparisons with the Nvidia AmgX solution show an improvement of up to 2.0x in the solve phase.

description: Many parasites of seasonally available hosts must persist through times of the year when hosts are unavailable. In tropical environments, host availability is often linked to rainfall, and adaptations of parasites to dry periods remain understudied. The bird-parasitic fly Philornis downsi has invaded the Galapagos Islands and is causing high mortality of Darwin’s finches and other bird species, and the mechanisms by which it was able to invade the islands are of great interest to conservationists. In the dry lowlands, this fly persists over a seven-month cool season when availability of hosts is very limited. We tested the hypothesis that adult flies could survive from one bird-breeding season until the next by using a pterin-based age-grading method to estimate the age of P. downsi captured during and between bird-breeding seasons. This study showed that significantly older flies were present towards the end of the cool season, with ~ 5% of captured females exhibiting estimated ages greater than seven months. However, younger flies also occurred during the cool season suggesting that some fly reproduction occurs when host availability is low. We discuss the possible ecological mechanisms that could allow for such a mixed strategy.

description: We construct a model of the quintessence axion based on a gauged chiral $U(1)$ symmetry and an additional flat fifth dimension. The required high qualities are guaranteed by the brane separation. The observed cosmological constant (i.e., the potential energy of the quintessence axion) is determined by the size of the extra dimension and the axion decay constant $F_a$ is fixed almost at $F_a\simeq10^{17}\,{\rm GeV}$, which is sufficiently large for the stability of the axion field near the hilltop of its potential. Furthermore, the movement of the axion can also easily explain the recently reported isotropic cosmic birefringence of the cosmic microwave background photon.

description: Il saggio ricostruisce attraverso uno sguardo comparato il racconto del vissuto delle madri immigrate attraverso l’analisi di brani di interviste contenuti in alcune recenti ricerche nazionali sulle famiglie e sulle madri immigrate. In particolare prende in esame l’esperienza della maternità delle donne migranti che diventano madri in Italia, per cercare di capire attraverso la loro testimonianza il modo in cui hanno vissuto l’esperienza della maternità. Solitudine, paura disorientamento, mancanza della famiglia d’origine, sentimento di debolezza e di fragilità sono concetti ed espressioni ricorrenti nel racconto delle madri e stanno a indicare che la maternità per loro è un periodo particolarmente delicato segnato da specifiche difficoltà. Dal loro racconto si possono trarre spunti significativi da cui partire per elaborare proposte di sostegno alla genitorialità rivolte alle madri immigrate.

NF-κB as a therapeutic target in cancer

Year: 2002

description: The transcription factor nuclear factor (NF)-κB is activated in certain cancers and in response to chemotherapy and radiation. The transcriptional activation of genes associated with cell proliferation, angiogenesis, metastasis and suppression of apoptosis appears to lie at the heart of the ability of NF-κB to promote oncogenesis and cancer therapy resistance. Supporting these findings are recent experiments, performed in vitro and using xenograft models of cancer, which implicate NF-κB inhibition as an important new approach for the treatment of certain hematological malignancies and as an adjuvant approach in combination with chemotherapy or radiation for a variety of cancers. Clinical trials with drugs that block NF-κB are currently in progress with promising results. However, as there is currently no drug that blocks specific NF-κB activation, conclusions drawn with small-molecule inhibitors must be interpreted carefully.

description: As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to evolve, smartphones have become essential components of IoT systems. However, with the increasing amount of personal information stored on smartphones, user privacy is at risk of being compromised by malicious attackers. Although malware detection engines are commonly installed on smartphones against these attacks, attacks that can evade these defenses may still emerge. In this paper, we analyze the return values of system calls on Android smartphones and find two never-disclosed vulnerable return values that can leak fine-grained user behaviors. Based on this observation, we present EavesDroid, an application-embedded side-channel attack on Android smartphones that allows unprivileged attackers to accurately identify fine-grained user behaviors (e.g., viewing messages and playing videos) via on-screen operations. Our attack relies on the correlation between user behaviors and the return values associated with hardware and system resources. While this attack is challenging since these return values are susceptible to fluctuation and misalignment caused by many factors, we show that attackers can eavesdrop on fine-grained user behaviors using a CNN-GRU classification model that adopts min-max normalization and multiple return value fusion. Our experiments on different models and versions of Android smartphones demonstrate that EavesDroid can achieve 98% and 86% inference accuracy for 17 classes of user behaviors in the test set and real-world settings, highlighting the risk of our attack on user privacy. Finally, we recommend effective malware detection, carefully designed obfuscation methods, or restrictions on reading vulnerable return values to mitigate this attack.

description: Chemically synthesized single-crystalline gold microplates have been attracting increasing interests because of their potential as high-quality gold films for nanotechnology. We present the growth of tens of nanometer thick and tens of micrometer large single-crystalline gold plates directly on solid substrates by solution-phase synthesis. Compared to microplates deposited on substrates from dispersion phase, substrate-grown plates exhibit significantly higher quality by avoiding severe small-particle contamination and aggregation. Substrate-grown gold plates also open new perspec-tives to study the growth mechanism via intermittent growth and observation cycles of a large number of individual plates. Growth models are proposed to interpret the evolution of thickness, area and shape of plates. It is found that the plate surface remains smooth after regrowth, implying the application of regrowth for producing giant plates as well as unique single-crystalline nano-structures.

description: Groundwater quality is widely compromised by anthropogenic impact. This becomes evident by the presence of numerous anthropogenic organic and inorganic contaminants in groundwater. Contaminants are of widespread origin. They enter the groundwater associated to different processes such as sewer failure, agricultural activities or contaminated industrial sites. Understanding the input mechanism, transport, attenuation and degradation processes in short and long term is crucial for sustainable groundwater development. Although unwanted, contaminants even in smallest quantities might provide information for locating their input or allow for understanding transport and attenuation processes within aquifers. In addition, microbial communities might not only be harmful but assist in the degradation of harmful substances. We call for contributions that deal with groundwater quality in all type of aquifers (e.g. alluvial, fractured, and karst aquifers). We welcome topics such as urban groundwater, new tools for water quality characterization, organic micropollutants in groundwater, microbial contaminants (such as bacteria, virus, and protozoans), groundwater remediation, and water quality monitoring.

We use the same idea to characterize asymptotic dimension in the coarse category of arbitrary coarse spaces. Continuity of the map $f$ is replaced by variation of $f$ on elements of a uniformly bounded cover. The same way one can generalize Property A of G.Yu to arbitrary coarse spaces.

A switching Gaussian process latent force model for the identification of mechanical systems with a discontinuous nonlinearity

description: An approach for the identification of discontinuous and nonsmooth nonlinear forces, as those generated by frictional contacts, in mechanical systems that can be approximated by a single-degree-of-freedom model is presented. To handle the sharp variations and multiple motion regimes introduced by these nonlinearities in the dynamic response, the partially-known physics-based model and noisy measurements of the system's response to a known input force are combined within a switching Gaussian process latent force model (GPLFM). In this grey-box framework, multiple Gaussian processes are used to model the unknown nonlinear force across different motion regimes and a resetting model enables the generation of discontinuities. The states of the system, nonlinear force and regime transitions are inferred by using filtering and smoothing techniques for switching linear dynamical systems. The proposed switching GPLFM is applied to a simulated dry friction oscillator and an experimental setup consisting in a single-storey frame with a brass-to-steel contact. Excellent results are obtained in terms of the identified nonlinear and discontinuous friction force for varying: (i) normal load amplitudes in the contact; (ii) measurement noise levels and (iii) number of samples in the datasets. Moreover, the identified states, friction force and sequence of motion regimes are used for evaluating: (1) uncertain system parameters; (2) the friction force-velocity relationship and (3) the static friction force. The correct identification of the discontinuous nonlinear force and the quantification of any remaining uncertainty in its prediction enable the implementation an accurate forward model able to predict the system's response to different input forces.

description: Two species of entomogenous fungi were discovered infecting the invasive paper wasp Polistes chinensis during an ecological study on Farewell Spit, New Zealand. We sequenced two nuclear ribosomal RDNA genes, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and the small ribosomal subunit 18S, and one protein-coding gene, the translation elongation factor 1-alpha (ef1 α). Combining sequence information with morphological examination, we identified these species as Beauveria malawiensis and Ophiocordyceps humbertii. We estimated that these fungi produce infection in approximately 3.3% of colonies in our study population. In bioassays, we successfully infected P. chinensis individuals from healthy colonies with B. malawiensis, with significant effects on adult mortality. This is the first record of both B. malawiensis and O. humbertii from Polistine hosts in New Zealand, and the first investigation into disease causality by these pathogens in P. chinensis. Our findings may contribute to the future development of biological control agents for paper wasps in New Zealand and elsewhere around the world.
Multiplatform analysis of 12 cancer types reveals molecular classification within and across tissues of origin

description: Recent genomic analyses of pathologically defined tumor types identify “within-a-tissue” disease subtypes. However, the extent to which genomic signatures are shared across tissues is still unclear. We performed an integrative analysis using five genome-wide platforms and one proteomic platform on 3,527 specimens from 12 cancer types, revealing a unified classification into 11 major subtypes. Five subtypes were nearly identical to their tissue-of-origin counterparts, but several distinct cancer types were found to converge into common subtypes. Lung squamous, head and neck, and a subset of bladder cancers coalesced into one subtype typified by TP53 alterations, TP63 amplifications, and high expression of immune and proliferation pathway genes. Of note, bladder cancers split into three pan-cancer subtypes. The multiplatform classification, while correlated with tissue-of-origin, provides independent information for predicting clinical outcomes. All data sets are available for data-mining from a unified resource to support further biological discoveries and insights into novel therapeutic strategies

description: Defect prediction has been a popular research topic where machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have found numerous applications. However, these ML/DL-based defect prediction models are often limited by the quality and size of their datasets. In this paper, we present Defectors, a large dataset for just-in-time and line-level defect prediction. Defectors consists of $\approx$ 213K source code files ($\approx$ 93K defective and $\approx$ 120K defect-free) that span across 24 popular Python projects. These projects come from 18 different domains, including machine learning, automation, and internet-of-things. Such a scale and diversity make Defectors a suitable dataset for training ML/DL models, especially transformer models that require large and diverse datasets. We also foresee several application areas of our dataset including defect prediction and defect explanation. Dataset link: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7708984

description: We extend the solid-state nudged elastic band method to handle a non-conserved order parameter - in particular, magnetization, that couples to volume and leads to many observed effects in magnetic systems. We apply this formalism to the well-studied magneto-volume collapse during the pressure-induced transformation in iron - from ferromagnetic body-centered cubic (bcc) austenite to hexagonal close-packed (hcp) martensite. We find a bcc-hcp equilibrium coexistence pressure of 8.4 GPa, with the transition-state enthalpy of 156 meV/Fe at this pressure. A discontinuity in magnetization and coherent stress occurs at the transition state, which has a form of a cusp on the potential-energy surface (yet all the atomic and cell degrees of freedom are continuous); the calculated pressure jump of 25 GPa is related to the observed 25 GPa spread in measured coexistence pressures arising from martensitic and coherency stresses in samples. Our results agree with experiments, but necessarily differ from those arising from drag and restricted parametrization methods having improperly constrained or uncontrolled degrees of freedom.

description: Sedimentary basins contain the vast majority of all energy resources, including coal, petroleum, natural gas but also geothermal energy and are also the most important storage sites for anthropogenic solids and fluids. During basin evolution, organic matter-rich sediments and sedimentary rocks are exposed to changing pressure and temperature conditions, which lead to mineralogical and geochemical reactions. Systematic and innovative studies on rock properties, laboratory experiments under well-defined physical and chemical conditions as well as numerical modelling are required to determine rates of transformation, but also fluid flow at different scales. We invite contributions to this session dealing with sedimentary systems and their constituent elements. We welcome basin modeling studies from crustal to reservoir scale, studies on various aspects of the petroleum system, e.g. source rock deposition, maturation, petroleum generation, expulsion and biodegradation, studies on temperature and heat flow evolution in sedimentary systems.

description: Recurrent microdeletions and microduplications of a 600-kb genomic region of chromosome 16p11.2 have been implicated in childhood-onset developmental disorders1,2,3. We report the association of 16p11.2 microduplications with schizophrenia in two large cohorts. The microduplication was detected in 12/1,906 (0.63%) cases and 1/3,971 (0.03%) controls (P = 1.2 × 10−5, OR = 25.8) from the initial cohort, and in 9/2,645 (0.34%) cases and 1/2,420 (0.04%) controls (P = 0.022, OR = 8.3) of the replication cohort. The 16p11.2 microduplication was associated with a 14.5-fold increased risk of schizophrenia (95% CI (3.3, 62)) in the combined sample. A meta-analysis of datasets for multiple psychiatric disorders showed a significant association of the microduplication with schizophrenia (P = 4.8 × 10−7), bipolar disorder (P = 0.017) and autism (P = 1.9 × 10−7). In contrast, the reciprocal microdeletion was associated only with autism and developmental disorders (P = 2.3 × 10−13). Head circumference was larger in patients with the microdeletion than in patients with the microduplication (P = 0.0007).

description: Training stability is of great importance to Transformers. In this work, we investigate the training dynamics of Transformers by examining the evolution of the attention layers. In particular, we track the attention entropy for each attention head during the course of training, which is a proxy for model sharpness. We identify a common pattern across different architectures and tasks, where low attention entropy is accompanied by high training instability, which can take the form of oscillating loss or divergence. We denote the pathologically low attention entropy, corresponding to highly concentrated attention scores, as $\textit{entropy collapse}$. As a remedy, we propose $σ$Reparam, a simple and efficient solution where we reparametrize all linear layers with spectral normalization and an additional learned scalar. We demonstrate that $σ$Reparam successfully prevents entropy collapse in the attention layers, promoting more stable training. Additionally, we prove a tight lower bound of the attention entropy, which decreases exponentially fast with the spectral norm of the attention logits, providing additional motivation for our approach. We conduct experiments with $σ$Reparam on image classification, image self-supervised learning, machine translation, speech recognition, and language modeling tasks. We show that $σ$Reparam provides stability and robustness with respect to the choice of hyperparameters, going so far as enabling training (a) a Vision Transformer {to competitive performance} without warmup, weight decay, layer normalization or adaptive optimizers; (b) deep architectures in machine translation and (c) speech recognition to competitive performance without warmup and adaptive optimizers.

description: Merging haloes with similar masses (i.e., major mergers) pose significant challenges for halo finders. We compare five halo finding algorithms' (AHF, HBT, Rockstar, SubFind, and VELOCIraptor) recovery of halo properties for both isolated and cosmological major mergers. We find that halo positions and velocities are often robust, but mass biases exist for every technique. The algorithms also show strong disagreement in the prevalence and duration of major mergers, especially at high redshifts (z>1). This raises significant uncertainties for theoretical models that require major mergers for, e.g., galaxy morphology changes, size changes, or black hole growth, as well as for finding Bullet Cluster analogues. All finders not using temporal information also show host halo and subhalo relationship swaps over successive timesteps, requiring careful merger tree construction to avoid problematic mass accretion histories. We suggest that future algorithms should combine phase-space and temporal information to avoid the issues presented.

description: The pacing of the global climate system by variations in orbital parameters is clearly demonstrated in the timing and specific patterns of various geoarchives, including sapropels, glacial/interglacial cycles and many other examples. The imprint of astronomical cycles can be used as high-precision geochronometer, and as paleoclimatic information. Extreme events can especially be expected to relate to extremes in insolation. We invite contributions utilizing the imprint of Milankovic cycles as preserved in the geological record in any way, including the often poorly understood mechanisms that translate this forcing into geoarchives. Submissions exploring orbital time scales, proxy data and/or modelling work are welcome; we aim to bring together studies focused on global and regional climate responses to astronomical forcing at different time scales.

description: As technology advances in autonomous mobile robots, mobile service robots have been actively used more and more for various purposes. Especially, serving robots have been not surprising products anymore since the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the practical problems in operating a serving robot is that it often fails to estimate its pose on a map that it moves around. Whenever the failure happens, servers should bring the serving robot to its initial location and reboot it manually. In this paper, we focus on end-to-end relocalization of serving robots to address the problem. It is to predict robot pose directly from only the onboard sensor data using neural networks. In particular, we propose a deep neural network architecture for the relocalization based on camera-2D LiDAR sensor fusion. We call the proposed method FusionLoc. In the proposed method, the multi-head self-attention complements different types of information captured by the two sensors to regress the robot pose. Our experiments on a dataset collected by a commercial serving robot demonstrate that FusionLoc can provide better performances than previous end-to-end relocalization methods taking only a single image or a 2D LiDAR point cloud as well as a straightforward fusion method concatenating their features.

Delta chain with anisotropic ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions

description: We consider analytically and numerically an anisotropic spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ delta-chain (sawtooth chain) with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic and next-nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic interactions. For certain values of the interactions a lowest one-particle band becomes flat and there is a class of localized-magnon eigenstates which form a ground state with a macroscopic degeneracy. In this case the model depends on a single parameter which can be chosen as the anisotropy of the exchange interactions. When this parameter changes from zero to infinity the model interpolates between the one-dimensional isotropic ferromagnet and the frustrated Ising model on the delta-chain. It is shown that the low-temperature thermodynamic properties in these limiting cases are governed by the specific structure of the excitation spectrum. In particular, the specific heat has one or infinite number of low-temperature maxima for the small or the large anisotropy parameter, correspondingly. Numerical calculations of finite chains demonstrate that this behavior is generic for definite values of the anisotropy parameter.

description: Quality of housing is a known social determinant of psychosocial well-being. The scope of empirical literature describing housing quality following homelessness is unknown. Using the five stage process described by Arksey & O'Malley (2005) and PRISMA ScR guidelines, we are conducting this scoping review. Our search strategy has been deployed in eight databases (EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Medline, Sociological Abstracts, Proquest Social Sciences, Social Work Abstracts, Social Services Abstracts). Using Covidence, two independent raters are screening titles and abstracts, and conducting a full-text review of included studies. The findings of this review are meant to guide future research, policy and practice approaches aimed at improving the quality of housing in which individuals reside following homelessness in an effort to address some of the negative health outcomes often observed in individuals after leaving homelessness.

description: L’evento della nascita comporta una ristrutturazione dell’assetto della coppia coniugale ad appannaggio della creazione del vincolo familiare, fondamentale per la cura e l’educazione del bambino. La pedagogia familiare, a tale riguardo, è essenzialmente una pedagogia della tenerezza. È la tenerezza per la creaturalità del lattante a consentire lo sviluppo delle funzioni educative necessarie alla sopravvivenza del nuovo nato e ad attivare nella coppia, nel medesimo tempo, il corredo transgenerazionale di competenze affettive e la rete intergenerazionale di apprendimenti educanti. La famiglia, in termini genealogici, è il luogo della tenerezza, e il suo permanere è un disvelarsi alla luce della tenerezza stanziale.
