Managing Time-Sensitive Internet of Things Applications via Adaptive and Scalable Techniques
Creators: name: Korala, Harindu Chathuranga
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The recent proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to the pervasion of networked IoT devices such as sensors, video cameras, mobile phones, and industrial machines. This has fuelled the growth of Time-Sensitive IoT applications that must collect data generated from IoT devices and analyse them while adhering to real-time requirements. However, satisfying such requirements is challenging due to the volatile and heterogeneous nature of the IoT environment where Time-Sensitive IoT applications are executed. This thesis proposed, implemented, evaluated and validated a set of novel adaptive and scalable techniques for managing such applications while fulfilling their real-time requirements.

CTD2020: Fast pattern recognition for ATLAS track triggers in HL-LHC
Creators: name: Kalderon, William
name: Shaw, Savanna Marie
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: A fast hardware based track trigger is being developed in ATLAS for the High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). The goal is to provide the high-level trigger with full-scan tracking at 100 kHz and regional tracking at 1 MHz, in the high pile-up conditions of the HL-LHC. A method for fast pattern recognition using the Hough transform is investigated. In this method, detector hits are mapped onto a 2D parameter space with one parameter related to the transverse momentum and one to the initial track direction. The performance of the Hough transform is studied at different pile-up values and compared, using full event simulation of events with average pile-up of 200, with a method based on matching detector hits to pattern banks of simulated tracks stored in a custom made Associative Memory ASICs. As a possible way to reduce the number of hit clusters that need to be considered by this system, and taking advantage of the new ATLAS Inner Tracker, the use of track stub finding and extrapolation is investigated. A preliminary discussion of the resulting hit reduction and associated speedup, and any associated performance loss, will be presented.

description: Excavation of a 10.8% sample of the portion of the Independence site that will be destroyed through construction of a bridge over the Wabash River between Fountain and Warren Counties, Indiana revealed that the site had been disturbed through cultivation, erosion and bioturbation. In spite of the disturbance, data recovered during excavation revealed that occupation of the site spanned a 10,000 year period, was short term, and probably seasonal. Since informants reported that the site has not been in cultivation in their memory, the recovered data has has been interpreted as demonstrating the complexity of sites in similar occupational histories.

“Partner”, “Caregiver”, or “Co-Survivor”—Might the Label We Give the Partners of Cancer Patients Affect the Health Outcome of the Patients and Their Partners?

description: Having a life partner significantly extends survival for most cancer patients. The label given to the partners of cancer patients may, however, influence the health of not just the patients but their partners. “Caregiver” is an increasingly common label for the partners of patients, but it carries an implicit burden. Referring to partners as “caregivers” may be detrimental to the partnerships, as it implies that the individuals are no longer able to be co-supportive. Recognizing this, there has been some effort to relabel cancer dyads as “co-survivors”. However, many cancer patients are not comfortable being called a “survivor”, and the same may apply to their partners. Cancer survivorship, we argue, could be enhanced by helping keep the bond between patients and their partners strong. This includes educating patients and partners about diverse coping strategies that individuals use when facing challenges to their health and wellbeing. We suggest that preemptive couples’ counselling in cancer centers may benefit both patients and their partners.

description: Mitigation of a 25% sample of a portion of the Morell-Sheets site that will be destroyed by the construction of Bridge No. 88, Montgomery County, Indiana revealed a virtually single component Albee Phase habitation site. Portions of the site were plow disturbed, but intact cultural deposits were recovered at the base of the plowzone and in a paleosol. Data recovered included a specialized lithic assemblage, a unique ceramic assemblage and very few bone tools. Features were primarily midden deposits and fire-cracked rock-filled pits. Floral analysis revealed the inhabitants were practicing horticulture supplemented with gathering of wild plants, fruits and nuts. The faunal inventory revealed that deer and turtle were being exploited along with beaver, wapiti, other small mammals and fresh water mussels. The site appears to have been occupied intermittently during the warm parts of the year. Radiocarbon dates from the site place the occupation during the Late Woodland period, from approximately AD 800 to 1200.

description: ATLAS event reconstruction requires the identification and selection of a hard-scatter (HS) primary vertex among the multiple interaction vertices reconstructed in each event. In Run 3, the HS vertex candidate is selected based on the largest sum of squared transverse momenta over the associated tracks. While this method works very well in events containing hard physics objects within the tracker acceptance, it suffers from low efficiency in final states containing forward and/or low $p_T$ jets, such as in the case of VBF Higgs to invisible (VBF H$\rightarrow$ZZ(*)$\rightarrow$4$\nu$), where the correct primary vertex is chosen correctly only 80% of the time. In order to overcome this challenge and improve the signal acceptance for VBF Higgs invisible events, we introduce two novel ideas. First, we propose a new vertex selection algorithm that combines tracking with calorimeter jet information to overcome the challenge of events with low $p_T$ jets. This new algorithm improves the vertex selection efficiency by 9%. Second, to address the case of events containing forward jets outside the tracking acceptance, we introduce the concept of vertex confidence. We classify events as high/low confidence based on the amount of track $p_T$ associated to hard jets. Events in which the majority of the total jet $p_T$ is outside the $\eta$ acceptance of the tracker are classified as low vertex confidence events and no vertex is chosen for this category. For VBF Higgs invisible events, we find that 80% of the events are classified as high confidence, and the new algorithm selects the correct primary vertex 97% of the time for these events. The remaining 20% of the events are classified as low confidence VBF events events, for which no attempt is made to assign a HS vertex even though there is still a VBF jet signature. In LHC Run-4, where the upgraded ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) provides an extended acceptance of $|\eta|<4$, the new vertex selection algorithm improves upon the current selection technique by 9% by addressing the challenges of vertex selection under HL-LHC conditions.
CTD2020: ACTS Vertexing and Deep Learning Vertex Finding
Creators: name: Schlag, Bastian
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The reconstruction of particle trajectories and their associated vertices is an essential task in the event reconstruction of most high energy physics experiments. In order to maintain or even improve upon the current performance of tracking and vertexing algorithms under the upcoming challenges of increasing energies and ever increasing luminosities in the future, major software upgrades are required. Based on the well-tested ATLAS tracking and vertexing software, ACTS (*A Common Tracking Software*) aims to provide a modern, experiment-independent set of track- and vertex reconstruction software, specifically designed for parallel execution. Exploiting modern software concepts, thread-safe implementations of iterative and multi-adaptive primary vertex finding algorithms, as well as a full Billoir vertex fitter, Z-Scan- and Gaussian track density seed finder, are available in ACTS and being deployed in the multi-threaded version of the ATLAS software framework AthenaMT. In addition to these computationally optimized reimplementations of classical primary vertexing algorithms, all of which have been validated against the original ATLAS implementations, ACTS provides a solid code base for evaluating new approaches to primary vertex finding, such as applications of sophisticated deep learning methods. Associating tracks to the correct vertex candidate is a crucial step in vertexing and will become even more important in the high-pileup environments expected for HL-LHC or FCC-hh in order not to merge close-by vertices. Learning a track representation in an embedding space in such a way that tracks emerging from a common vertex are close together while tracks from neighboring vertices are further separated from one another allows for the determination of a similarity score between a pair of tracks. Constructing undirected, edge-weighted graphs from these results allows the subsequent usage of classical graph algorithms or graph neural networks for clustering tracks to vertex candidates. The current status of the ACTS vertexing as well as new results on deep learning approaches to vertex finding will be presented in this talk.

description: Interest in ancient and autochthonous cultivars has increased in recent years since they are directly related to the historical and cultural values of a region. Ica and Cañete valleys (Peru) have a long history of grapevine cultivation and the aim of this study was to identify phenotypes corresponding to the most used varieties for the local production of Pisco and wine. The 29 samples were collected in 17 vineyards in the Ica and Cañete valleys, and were analyzed using 20 molecular markers and 5 morphological descriptors according to the OIV. Results showed that the 29 collected samples corresponded to 11 genotypes: seven traditional cultivars and four unknown genotypes not registered previously. The known cultivars were 'Muscat of Alexandria', 'Listán Prieto', 'Quebranta', 'Moscatel Rosado', 'Pedro Giménez', 'Muscat Hamburg' and 'Palomino Fino'. The four not registered genotypes are locally known as 'Mollar de Ica', 'Moscatel Rosada de Cañete', 'Prieta Mollar' and 'Torontel'. All of them correspond to offspring of traditional-heritage Peruvian cultivars. We also found a phenotypic variation of 'Listán Prieto' with muscat flavor and identified phenotypic berry color variations in 'Quebranta'. This study increases the knowledge of traditional Peruvian grape varieties and highlight the genetic variability preserved in the traditional vineyards of local producers.

CTD2020: Tracking performance with the HL-LHC ATLAS detector
Creators: name: Schillaci, Zachary Michael
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: During the High-Luminosity Phase 2 of LHC, scheduled to start in 2026, the ATLAS detector is expected to collect more than 3 ab$^{-1}$ of data at an instantaneous luminosity reaching up to $7.5×10^{34}~\mathrm{cm}^{-2}.\mathrm{s}^{-1}$, corresponding to about 200 inelastic proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing. In order to cope with the large radiation doses and to maintain the physics performance reached during Phase 1, the current ATLAS Inner Detector will be replaced with a new all-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk) and completed with a new High-Granularity Timing Detector (HGTD) in the forward region. In this talk, the latest results on the expected ITk tracking performance and HGTD timing reconstruction will be presented, including their impact on physics object reconstruction.
Leadership and Leadership Development in the Context of the Future of Work
Creators: name: Roux, Marianne
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Ignoring how the accelerating rate and magnitude of change reframes the future of work (FoW) may contribute to leadership and leadership development (LD) that equips leaders to operate in a context that no longer exists. This myopic approach fails to deliver the impacts for organisations to thrive in the FoW. Drawing on Day, Harrison and Halpin's (2009), DeRue and Myers' (2014), and Veldsman's (2016) theorizing and models of leadership and LD, the current research addresses the gap by developing and testing a model of leadership and a contextually nuanced, processual LD model fit for the FoW through three subsequent studies: a scoping review, 22 semi-structured interviews and a leadership development program case study. By highlighting the context of the FoW, the current research extends the understanding of future-focused leadership and contextually nuanced, processual LD fit for the future of work. More practically, the models developed in this study can be employed as comprehensive roadmaps and applied to specific contexts within the organisation to assess current gaps, measure leadership effectiveness, and inform leadership assessment, development, and a selection in the organisation.

CTD2020: Performance of Belle II tracking on collision data.
Creators: name: Kurz, Simon Thomas
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The tracking system of Belle II consists of a silicon vertex detector (VXD) and a cylindrical drift chamber (CDC), both operating in a magnetic field created by the main solenoid of 1.5 T and final focusing magnets. The tracking algorithms employed at Belle II are based on a standalone reconstruction in SVD and CDC as well as on a combination of the two approaches, they employ a number of machine learning methods for optimal performance. The tracking reconstruction is tested on the collision data collected in 2018 and 2019. The first experience with data introduced additional challenges which are mitigated with the introduction of new algorithms such as track finding seeded by calorimeter clusters and CDC cross-talk filtering.

description: The unprecedented increase of complexity and scale of data is expected in the necessary computation for tracking detectors of the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) experiments. While currently used Kalman filter based algorithms are reaching their limits in terms of ambiguities from increasing number of simultaneous collisions, occupancy, and scalability (worse than quadratic), a variety of machine learning approaches to particle track reconstruction are explored. It has been demonstrated previously by HEP.TrkX using TrackML datasets, that graph neural networks, processing events as a graph connecting track measurements, are a promising solution and can reduce the combinatorial background to a manageable amount and are scaling to a computationally reasonable size. In previous work, we have shown a first attempt of Quantum Computing to Graph Neural Networks for track reconstruction of particles. We aim to leverage the capability of quantum computing to evaluate a very large number of states simultaneously and thus to effectively search in a large parameter space. As the next step in this paper, we present an improved model with an iterative approach to overcome the low accuracy convergence of the initial oversimplified Tree Tensor Network (TTN) model.

Analyzing the Relationship Between Exchange Rate Pass-Through and Inflation Persistence
Creators: name: Jasson, Diego
Publisher: name: Stanford Digital Repository
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Exchange rate pass-through
subject: Inflation persistence
subject: Monetary policy

description: I measure the relationship between exchange rate pass-through and inflation persistence across 22 small and medium sized economies with mostly flexible exchange rates. Using data from the International Monetary Fund, national statistics offices, and the Bank for International Settlements, my estimates for exchange rate pass-throughs and inflation persistence present two main results. First, I find that a positive, non-linear relationship exists between exchange rate pass-through and inflation persistence across the sample countries. Second, I find some evidence that countries that have had varying levels of monetary policy success display a similar non-linear relationship between exchange rate pass-through and inflation persistence across time. These two results suggest that the dynamics of inflation depend in part on the sensitivity to inflationary shocks and thus the efficacy of monetary policy.

description: Quality Indicators (QIs), including the breast-conserving surgery (BCS) rate, were published by the European and American Breast Cancer Societies and this study assesses these in a Canadian population to look for opportunities to de-escalate surgery. A total of 2311 patients having surgery for unilateral, unifocal breast cancer between 2013 and 2017 were identified and BCS QIs calculated. Reasons for mastectomy had been prospectively collected with synoptic operative reporting. Our BCS rate for invasive cancer < 3 cm was 77.1%, invasive cancer < 2 cm was 84.1%, and DCIS < 2 cm was 84.9%. There was no statistically significant change in BCS rates over a five-year period, but there was a reduction in contralateral prophylactic mastectomies (CPM) from 28% in 2013 to 16% in 2017 (p < 0.001). Trend analysis looking at tumour size and medical need for mastectomy indicated that 80% of patients at our centre would be eligible for BCS with tumour cut off of 2.5 cm. Our institution met American but not European QI standards for BCS rates, potentially indicating a difference in patient demographics compared to Europe. Our results support the understanding that BCS rates are influenced by multiple factors and are challenging to compare across jurisdictions. CPM rates may offer a more actionable opportunity to de-escalate surgery for breast cancer.

description: In the most recent year of data-taking with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the minimum pT of reconstructed tracks was 500 MeV. This bound was set to reduce the amount of combinatorial problem solving required and to save disk space, which is a challenge in high pileup environments. However, most proton-proton collisions at the LHC will result in a large number of soft particles. While ATLAS does have two frameworks in place for performing low-pT tracking in low pileup runs, for some analyses, the reconstruction of these soft particles in high pileup can provide important information. This talk will explain a method of tracking in high pileup where low-pt tracks are reconstructed in a second tracking pass after default tracking and will elaborate on problems such as seed optimization, hit selection, and offline track selection requirements. Additionally, in order to prevent a large increase in the per-event reconstruction time, tracks are only reconstructed within a "region of interest", which is defined event-by-event. This method of tracking has been developed and tested by a team searching for photon-induced WW production at the LHC. Other analyses should be able to use this tracking method too; for example, charm tagging can be improved by reconstructing low-pt particles.

description: Rescue excavations at the Hesher site, a Late Woodland cemetery in Henry County, Indiana revealed 12 human burials and 26 other prehistoric features, The artifacts recovered from the site revealed connections with the nearby Commissary cemetery and the Van Nuys habitation site and with Albee phase sites in the White and Wabash River drainages. Since a portion of the Hesher site lies outside the highway right-of-way and remains undisturbed, and because of the importance of the Hesher site for resolving regional problems, it is considered to be of State and National Register quality and should be listed on both registers.
CTD2020: The Track finder algorithm for the Trigger System of the Mu2e experiment at Fermilab

description: The Mu2e experiment at Fermilab searches for the charged-lepton flavor violating conversion of a negative $\mu$ into an $e^-$ in the field of an Al nucleus. The Mu2e goal is to improve by four orders of magnitude the current best limit on the search sensitivity. The main detector consists of a 3.2 m long straw-tube tracker and a crystal calorimeter housed in a 1 T superconducting solenoid. Even if the topology of the signal from the $\mu$-conversion, which is represented by a $\sim105$ MeV/c $e^-$, is extremely clean and efficient reconstruction and identification of these $e^-$ tracks is difficult due to the presence of spurious hits, low-energy delta $e^-$ and other lower momenta $e^-$ tracks ($p\in [40,60]$ MeV/c) generated in $\mu$ Decay-In-Orbit processes, $N+ \mu^- \rightarrow N+ e^- + \nu_{\mu} + \bar{\nu}_{e}$, happening in all the parts of the apparatus where $\mu^-$ get stopped. The data acquisition (DAQ) system consists of continuous streaming of the data from the readout controller boards to the DAQ server, where we perform the online reconstruction. The trigger system is required to provide: - signal efficiency larger than 90%; - trigger rate of a few kHz - equivalent to $\sim 7$ Pb/year; - processing time of no more than 4 ms/event. We present the ``heart'' of the Trigger system that is based on a multi-staged online track reconstruction algorithm. We use two different pattern recognition algorithms, followed by a $\chi^2$-based track fit performed through the hit positions w/o resolving the left-right ambiguity, nor applying any energy loss correction (no Kalman filter). We perform the event selection by applying a series of filters at each stage of the track reconstruction. Preliminary studies show that the online track reconstruction will deliver a trigger rate of a few hundreds of Hz with a rate of fake tracks below $\sim 10$ Hz while keeping the signal efficiency larger than 96\%. We also discuss the expected timing performance that has been measured using a prototype of our DAQ system at the Fermi National Laboratory.

description: Medicinal chemistry optimization of a previously described stilbene inhibitor of HIV-1, 5350150 (2-(2-(5-nitro-2-thienyl)vinyl)quinoline), led to the identification of the thiazole-5-carboxamide derivative (GPS491), which retained potent anti-HIV-1 activity with reduced toxicity. In this report, we demonstrate that the block of HIV-1 replication by GPS491 is accompanied by a drastic inhibition of viral gene expression (IC50 ~ 0.25 µM), and alterations in the production of unspliced, singly spliced, and multiply spliced HIV-1 RNAs. GPS491 also inhibited the replication of adenovirus and multiple coronaviruses. Low µM doses of GPS491 reduced adenovirus infectious yield ~1000 fold, altered virus early gene expression/viral E1A RNA processing, blocked viral DNA amplification, and inhibited late (hexon) gene expression. Loss of replication of multiple coronaviruses (229E, OC43, SARS-CoV2) upon GPS491 addition was associated with the inhibition of viral structural protein expression and the formation of virus particles. Consistent with the observed changes in viral RNA processing, GPS491 treatment induced selective alterations in the accumulation/phosphorylation/function of splicing regulatory SR proteins. Our study establishes that a compound that impacts the activity of cellular factors involved in RNA processing can prevent the replication of several viruses with minimal effect on cell viability.

description: The high instantaneous luminosity conditions in the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) pose major computational challenges for the collider experiments. One of the most computationally challenging components is the reconstruction of charged-particle tracks. In order to efficiently operate under these conditions, it is crucial that we explore new and faster methods or implementations of charged-particle track reconstruction than what is being used today. Kalman-filter-based methods of the track pattern recognition that are currently used in the LHC experiments are inherently sequential and iterative and therefore cannot easily be accelerated through parallelization or vectorization by modern processors, such as graphics processing units (GPUs) or multicore processors. There have been attempts with great effort in vectorizing Kalman-filter-based methods of the track pattern recognition on modern processors with success. In this work, we instead start with a segment-linking-based algorithm that can be naturally parallelized and vectorized and is expected to run efficiently on modern processors. We established a preliminary segment-linking-based track pattern recognition for the CMS experiment using the Phase-II outer tracker and our findings and implications are presented here. This work is building on experience gained from a prototype of a similar approach studied in a different tracker layout geometry based on ideal detector simulation previously presented at CHEP2016.

description: Woodworkers have to navigate multiple considerations when planning a project, including available resources, skill-level, and intended effort. Do it yourself (DIY) woodworkers face these challenges most acutely because of tight material constraints and a desire for custom designs tailored to specific spaces. To address these needs, we present XR-penter, an extended reality (XR) application that supports in situ, material-aware woodworking for casual makers. Our system enables users to design virtual scrap wood assemblies directly in their workspace, encouraging sustainable practices through the use of discarded materials. Users register physical material as virtual twins, manipulate these twins into an assembly in XR, and preview cuts needed for fabrication. We conducted a case study and feedback sessions to demonstrate how XR-penter supports improvisational workflows in practice, the type of woodworker who would benefit most from our system, and insights on integrating similar spatial and material considerations into future work.
CTD2020: Level-1 Track Finding at CMS for the HL-LHC
Creators: name: Skinnari, Louise
name: CMS Collaboration
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The success of the CMS physics program at the HL-LHC requires maintaining sufficiently low trigger thresholds to select processes at the electroweak scale. With an average expected 200 pileup interactions, critical to achieve this goal while maintaining manageable trigger rates is in the inclusion of tracking in the L1 trigger. A 40 MHz silicon-based track trigger on the scale of the CMS detector has never before been built; it is a novel handle, which in addition to maintaining trigger rates can enable entirely new physics studies. The main challenges of reconstructing tracks in the L1 trigger are the large data throughput at 40 MHz and the need for a trigger decision within 12.5 µs. To address these challenges, the CMS outer tracker for HL-LHC uses modules with closely-spaced silicon sensors to read out only hits compatible with charged particles above 2-3 GeV ("stubs"). These are used in the back-end L1 track finding system, implemented based on commercially available FPGA technology. The ever-increasing capability of modern FPGAs combined with their programming flexibility is ideal for a fast track finding algorithm. The proposed algorithm forms track seeds ("tracklets") from pairs of stubs in adjacent layers of the outer tracker. These seeds provide roads where consistent stubs are included to form track candidates. Track candidates sharing multiple stubs are combined prior to being fitted. A Kalman Filter track fitting algorithm is employed to identify the final track candidates and determine the track parameters. The system is divided into nine sectors in the r-phi plane, where the processing for each sector is performed by a dedicated track finding board. This presentation will discuss the CMS L1 track finding algorithm and its implementation, present simulation studies of the estimated performance, and discuss the developments of hardware demonstrators.

description: The physics program of the LHCb experiment depends on an efficient and precise reconstruction of the primary vertices produced by proton-proton collisions. The LHCb Upgrade detector, starting to take data in 2021 with a fully software- based trigger, requires an online reconstruction at a rate of 30 MHz, necessitating fast vertex finding algorithms. We present a new approach to vertex reconstruction and its parallelized implementation on x86 and GPU architectures.

description: Surgeons performing laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery either manually or robotically can experience strain while operating, impacting their health, career longevity, and patient care. This thesis compared the comfort and workload of surgeons performing traditional and robotic keyhole surgery using surveys, Electromyography (EMG) to measure muscle activity, and motion capture using inertial sensors. This work suggests that traditional and robotic keyhole surgery have different risk factors contributing to injury among surgeons relating to posture, muscle strain, perceived workload, and burnout. These findings have implications related to surgeons, hospitals, and the design of equipment used in keyhole surgery.
