Some Considerations and a Benchmark Related to the CNF Property of the Koczy-Hirota Fuzzy Rule Interpolation

description: The goal of this paper is twofold. Once to highlight some basic problematic properties of the KH Fuzzy Rule Interpolation through examples, secondly to set up a brief Benchmark set of Examples, which is suitable for testing other Fuzzy Rule Interpolation (FRI) methods against these ill conditions. Fuzzy Rule Interpolation methods were originally proposed to handle the situation of missing fuzzy rules (sparse rule-bases) and to reduce the decision complexity. Fuzzy Rule Interpolation is an important technique for implementing inference with sparse fuzzy rule-bases. Even if a given observation has no overlap with the antecedent of any rule from the rule-base, FRI may still conclude a conclusion. The first FRI method was the Koczy and Hirota proposed "Linear Interpolation", which was later renamed to "KH Fuzzy Interpolation" by the followers. There are several conditions and criteria have been suggested for unifying the common requirements an FRI methods have to satisfy. One of the most common one is the demand for a convex and normal fuzzy (CNF) conclusion, if all the rule antecedents and consequents are CNF sets. The KH FRI is the one, which cannot fulfill this condition. This paper is focusing on the conditions, where the KH FRI fails the demand for the CNF conclusion. By setting up some CNF rule examples, the paper also defines a Benchmark, in which other FRI methods can be tested if they can produce CNF conclusion where the KH FRI fails.

description: The India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) is a project aimed at building a large underground laboratory to explore the Earth's mater effects on the atmospheric neutrinos in multi-GeV range. INO will host a 50 kton magnetized iron calorimeter detector (ICAL) in which Resistive Plate Chambers(RPCs) will be the active detector elements. In ICAL, 28,800 glass RPCs of 2 m $\times$ 2 m size will be operated in the avalanche mode. A small variation in the compositions of ionizing gaseous medium in the RPC affects its performance. Study of the charge distribution of the RPC at different gas compositions is necessary to optimize the gas mixture. An RPC made with glass plates of dimension 30 cm $\times$ 30 cm was operated in avalanche mode with a gas mixture of $C_2H_2F_4$/$iC_4H_{10}$/$SF_6$. We have studied the performance of these RPCs at the same ambient conditions. The percentages of the $iC_4H_{10}$ or $SF_6$ were varied and its effect on the performance of RPC were studied. The study of the charge distribution and time resolution of the RPC signals at different gas compositions is presented in this paper.

description: Depth sensing is an essential technology in robotics and many other fields. Many depth sensing (or RGB-D) cameras are available on the market and selecting the best one for your application can be challenging. In this work, we tested four stereoscopic RGB-D cameras that sense the distance by using two images from slightly different views. We empirically compared four cameras (Intel RealSense D435, Intel RealSense D455, StereoLabs ZED 2, and Luxonis OAK-D Pro) in three scenarios: (i) planar surface perception, (ii) plastic doll perception, (iii) household object perception (YCB dataset). We recorded and evaluated more than 3,000 RGB-D frames for each camera. For table-top robotics scenarios with distance to objects up to one meter, the best performance is provided by the D435 camera that is able to perceive with an error under 1 cm in all of the tested scenarios. For longer distances, the other three models perform better, making them more suitable for some mobile robotics applications. OAK-D Pro additionally offers integrated AI modules (e.g., object and human keypoint detection). ZED 2 is overall the best camera which is able to keep the error under 3 cm even at 4 meters. However, it is not a standalone device and requires a computer with a GPU for depth data acquisition. All data (more than 12,000 RGB-D frames) are publicly available at https://rustlluk.github.io/rgbd-comparison.

description: We investigate the impact of the 766.3 Ty KamLAND spectrum data on the determination of the solar neutrino oscillation parameters. We show that the observed spectrum distortion in the KamLAND experiment firmly establishes $Δm^2_{21}$ to lie in the low-LMA solution region. The high-LMA solution is excluded at more than 4$σ$ by the global solar neutrino and KamLAND spectrum data. The maximal solar neutrino mixing is ruled out at $6σ$ level. The $3σ$ allowed region in the $Δm^2_{21}-\sin^2θ_{12}$ plane is found to be remarkably stable with respect to leaving out the data from one of the solar neutrino experiments from the global analysis. We perform a three flavor neutrino oscillation analysis of the global solar neutrino and KamLAND spectrum data as well. The $3σ$ upper limit on $\sin^2θ_{13}$ is found to be $ \sin^2θ_{13} <0.055$. We derive predictions for the CC to NC event rate ratio and day-night (D-N) asymmetry in the CC event rate, measured in the SNO experiment, and for the suppression of the event rate in the BOREXINO and LowNu experiments. Prospective high precision measurements of the solar neutrino oscillation parameters are also discussed.

Body and Spirit : navigating grief through a sensorial landscape
Creators: name: Yuan, Rémi Landry
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: How can interactions with the natural world amplify our connection to grief and create pathways for healing? Body and Soul is framed through the life of the park, fueled by nutrients from the remains of bodies that have been turned to compost, and the experience of its visitors. It aims to tackle the complicated questions and feelings around grief, and how one can begin to build a better relationship to that grief. The process of engaging with one’s grief, through sensory experiences in natural landscapes, helps us connect and grow stronger relationships to our environment, fostering it and becoming stewards. These spaces can become healing - a separation from urban development to allow ourselves to feel and be true. Here, the architecture is responsive to the natural elements and changing climates around it, developing over time, and acting as secondary to the foliage and landscape. The park engages the mind, the body, and the soul. It engages the senses to connect us to departed souls, the landscape, and ultimately ourselves. Human composting serves as the anchor that grounds us to the natural world, reconnecting to the elements we are made up of, through grieving, care, and thoughtfulness.

description: We present an ab-initio density-functional-theory approach for calculating electron-phonon interactions within the projector augmented-wave method. The required electron-phonon matrix elements are defined as the second derivative of the one-electron energies in the PAW method. As the PAW method leads to a generalized eigenvalue problem, the resulting electron-phonon matrix elements lack some symmetries that are usually present for simple eigenvalue problems and all-electron formulations. We discuss the relation between our definition of the electron-phonon matrix element and other formulations. To allow for efficient evaluation of physical properties, we introduce a Wannier-interpolation scheme, again adapted to generalized eigenvalue problems. To explore the method's numerical characteristics, the temperature-dependent band-gap renormalization of diamond is calculated and compared with previous publications. Furthermore, we apply the method to selected binary compounds and show that the obtained zero-point renormalizations agree well with other values found in literature and experiments.

description: Higher-order topological phases (HOTPs) possess localized and symmetry-protected eigenmodes at corners and along hinges in two and three dimensional lattices. The numbers of these topological boundary modes will undergo quantized changes at the critical points between different HOTPs. In this work, we reveal unique higher-order topology induced by time-periodic driving at the critical points of topological phase transitions, which has no equilibrium counterparts and also goes beyond the description of gapped topological matter. Using an alternately coupled Creutz ladder and its Floquet-driven descendants as illustrative examples, we analytically characterize and numerically demonstrate the zero and $π$ corner modes that could emerge at the critical points between different Floquet HOTPs. Moreover, we propose a unified scheme of bulk-corner correspondence for both gapless and gapped Floquet HOTPs protected by chiral symmetry in two dimensions. Our work reveals the possibility of corner modes surviving topological transitions in Floquet systems and initializes the study of higher-order Floquet topology at quantum criticality.

description: Underlying a general noncommutative algebra with both noncommutative coordinates and noncommutative momenta in a (1+1)-dimensional spacetime, a chiral boson Lagrangian with manifest Lorentz covariance is proposed by linearly imposing a generalized self-duality condition on a noncommutative generalization of massless real scalar fields. A significant property uncovered for noncommutative chiral bosons is that the left- and right-moving chiral scalars cannot be distinguished from each other, which originates from the noncommutativity of coordinates and momenta. An interesting result is that Dirac's method can be consistently applied to the constrained system whose Lagrangian explicitly contains space and time. The self-duality of the noncommutative chiral boson action does not exist.

This document is the fourth version of the European Union Reference Laboratory for Listeria monocytogenes (EURL Lm) Technical Guidance Document (TGD) on challenge tests and durability studies for assessing shelf-life of ready-to-eat foods for Listeria monocytogenes. It replaces the third version of 6 June 2014 – Amendment 1 of 21 February 2019.

The first version of this TGD (2008) was prepared at the request of the Directorate General Health & Consumers (DG SANCO) of the European Commission (EC) in response to the needs expressed by EU Member States to have a document providing both detailed and practical information on how to conduct shelf-life studies on Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) in ready-to-eat (RTE) foods to ensure compliance to the microbiological criteria set out in Article 3.2 of Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005.

The purpose of this revision is to ensure consistency between the EURL Lm Technical Guidance Document and the standard EN ISO 20976-1 on "Requirements and guidelines for conducting challenge tests of food and feed products - Part 1: challenge tests to study the growth potential, lag time and maximum growth rate" published in 2019.

The standard specifies the protocols for carrying out challenge tests for growth studies for any bacteria and yeasts that do not form mycelium, whereas the EURL Lm Technical Guidance Document covers the technical aspects specific to Lm in RTE foods, which are not addressed in the standard. Therefore, the EURL Lm Technical Guidance Document should now be read in conjunction with the standard and be considered as a supplementary document to the standard EN ISO 20976-1.

The revision of this TGD also includes the experience gained over the years in carrying out challenge tests.

This document remains complementary to the EC/DG SANCO document, entitled “Guidance document on Listeria monocytogenes shelf-life studies for ready-to-eat foods, under Regulation (EC) No. 2073/2005 of 15 November 2005 on microbiological criteria for foodstuffs”.

The fourth version of the TGD was prepared by EURL Lm together with a working group of six NRLs Lm and was approved by the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed on 1 July 2021.

New growth mechanism of dust grains in protoplanetary disks with magnetically driven disk winds

description: We discovered a new growth mode of dust grains to km-sized bodies in protoplanetary disks that evolve by viscous accretion and magnetically driven disk winds (MDWs). We solved an approximate coagulation equation of dust grains with time-evolving disks that consist of both gas and solid components by a one-dimensional model. With the grain growth, all solid particles initially drift inward toward the central star by the gas drag force. However, the radial profile of gas pressure, $P$, is modified by the MDW that disperses the gas in an inside-out manner. Consequently, a local concentration of solid particles is created by the converging radial flux of drifting dust grains at the location with the convex upward profile of $P$. When the dimensionless stopping time, ${\rm St}$, there exceeds unity, the solid particles spontaneously reach the growth dominated state because of the positive feedback between the suppressed radial drift and the enhanced accumulation of dust particles that drift from the outer part. Once the solid particles are in the drift limited state, the above-mentioned condition of ${\rm St} \gtrsim 1$ for the dust growth is equivalent with \begin{equation} Σ_{\rm d}/Σ_{\rm g}\gtrsim η, \nonumber \end{equation} where $Σ_{\rm d}/Σ_{\rm g}$ is the dust-to-gas surface-density ratio and $η$ is dimensionless radial pressure-gradient force. As a consequence of the successful growth of dust grains, a ring-like structure containing planetesimal-sized bodies is formed at the inner part of the protoplanetary disks. Such a ring-shaped concentration of planetesimals is expected to play a vital role in the subsequent planet formation.

Ultrafast reversal of the ferroelectric polarization by a midinfrared pulse

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: We calculate the ferroelectric polarization dynamics induced by a femtosecond midinfrared pulse as measured in the recent experiment by R. Mankowsky et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 197601 (2017). It is due to the nonlinear coupling of the excited infrared-active phonon with the ferroelectric mode or to the excitation of the ferroelectric mode itself depending on the pulse frequency. To begin with, we write the LiNbO$_3$ crystal symmetry invariant thermodynamic potential including electric field and nonlinear phonon coupling terms. We solve the equations of motion determined by this potential for phonon coordinates numerically in classical approximation. We explain the transient polarization reversal observed in the experiment by action of the depolarizing electric field which is due to bound charges at the polarization domain boundaries and give a reasonable estimate for its value. We argue that the polarization could be ultimately reversed when this field is screened.

description: Using high-resolution non-radiative hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy clusters we obtain simple analytic formulae for DM and gas distribution in the spherical approximation. We derive fits for the DM density, velocity dispersion and velocity anisotropy. We use these models to test the dynamical equilibrium hypothesis through the Jeans equation: we find that this is satisfied to good accuracy. This result show that our fits constitute a self-consistent dynamical model. We then extend our analysis to the gas, studying its density, temperature and velocity structure, with no further hypothesis on the dynamical status or state equation. Gas and DM show self-similar density profiles down to 0.06 R_vir, while at smaller radii the gas produces a central core. Gas temperatures are almost isothermal out to 0.2 R_vir, then steeply decrease reaching at R_vir a value a factor of 2 lower. We find that the gas is not at rest inside R_vir: velocity dispersions are increasing functions of the radius, motions are isotropic to slightly tangential, and contribute to the total pressure support. We test our model using a generalization of the hydrostatic equilibrium equation, where the gas motion is properly taken into account. We find that our fits provide an accurate description of the system: the gas is in equilibrium and is a good tracer the overall cluster potential if all terms are taken into account, while simpler assumptions, as the beta-model, cause systematic mass underestimates. We also find that, if gas velocities are neglected, then a simple isothermal model fares better at large radii than a non-isothermal one. (abridged)

description: Journal article published in Journal of Maps 2021 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17445647.2021.1897047) Abstract: We present a method of digital geomorphological mapping of mountainous areas with a legend consisting of a three-tiered nested hierarchy using two case study areas from Vorarlberg, Austria. Users can easily visualize maps in a geographical information system (GIS) at the finest level with a legend of 33 morphogenetic domains. Reclassification of the morphogenetic classes in an automated GIS-workflow generates the medium and high levels of hierarchy, and each tier is accompanied bysuggested scale ranges for visualization. A variety of high-resolution input data (LiDAR-derived data, geomorphological and geological raster maps) supports the mapping method, which also strongly benefits from field knowledge. The method facilitates analysis, interpretation, visualization and application of geomorphological data at a large range of scales and corresponding information densities within one database. The structure of the legend allows for inclusion of additional morphogenetic classes and for application and adaptation in other environments.
Chiral rings, anomalies and loop equations in N=1* gauge theories

description: We examine the equivalence between the Konishi anomaly equations and the matrix model loop equations in N=1* gauge theories, the mass deformation of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills. We perform the superfunctional integral of two adjoint chiral superfields to obtain an effective N=1 theory of the third adjoint chiral superfield. By choosing an appropriate holomorphic variation, the Konishi anomaly equations correctly reproduce the loop equations in the corresponding three-matrix model. We write down the field theory loop equations explicitly by using a noncommutative product of resolvents peculiar to N=1* theories. The field theory resolvents are identified with those in the matrix model in the same manner as for the generic N=1 gauge theories. We cover all the classical gauge groups. In SO/Sp cases, both the one-loop holomorphic potential and the Konishi anomaly term involve twisting of index loops to change a one-loop oriented diagram to an unoriented diagram. The field theory loop equations for these cases show certain inhomogeneous terms suggesting the matrix model loop equations for the RP2 resolvent.

description: We investigate the properties of the spanning trees of various real-world and model networks. The spanning tree representing the communication kernel of the original network is determined by maximizing total weight of edges, whose weights are given by the edge betweenness centralities. We find that a scale-free tree and shortcuts organize a complex network. The spanning tree shows robust betweenness centrality distribution that was observed in scale-free tree models. It turns out that the shortcut distribution characterizes the properties of original network, such as the clustering coefficient and the classification of networks by the betweenness centrality distribution.

description: This paper defines a set difference metric for com- paring machine learning (ML) datasets and proposes the differ- ence between datasets be a function of combinatorial coverage. We illustrate its utility for evaluating and predicting performance of ML models. Identifying and measuring differences between datasets is of significant value for ML problems, where the accuracy of the model is heavily dependent on the degree to which training data are sufficiently representative of data encountered in application. The method is illustrated for transfer learning without retraining, the problem of predicting performance of a model trained on one dataset and applied to another.

description: There is considerable theoretical and experimental support to the proposal that tissue homeostasis in the adult skin can be represented as a critical branching process. The homeostatic condition requires that the proliferation rate of the progenitor (P) cells (capable of cell division) is counterbalanced by the loss rate due to the differentiation of a P cell into differentiated (D) cells so that the total number of P cells remains constant. We consider the two-branch and three-branch models of tissue homeostasis to establish homeostasis as a critical phenomenon. It is first shown that some critical branching process theorems correctly predict experimental observations. A number of temporal signatures of the approach to criticality are investigated based on simulation and analytical results. The analogy between a critical branching process and mean-field percolation and sandpile models is invoked to show that the size and lifetime distributions of the populations of P cells have power-law forms. The associated critical exponents have the same magnitudes as in the cases of the mean-field lattice statistical models. The results indicate that tissue homeostasis provides experimental opportunities for testing critical phenomena.

description: Adults conceptualize God as particularly knowledgeable – more knowledgeable than humans – about moral transgressions. We investigated how younger (4- to 5-year-old) and older (6- to 7-year-old) children view God’s moral knowledge. Cultural narratives in the United States portray God as omniscient, which could lead children growing up in the United States to conclude that God knows their own and others’ behaviors. However, older children are better able to distinguish between different minds, and this ability (theory of mind, or TOM) may predict a tendency for older, versus younger, children to attribute greater knowledge to God. Consistent with the latter possibility, 6- to 7-year-olds viewed God as more knowledgeable of their own and others’ transgressions than did 4- to 5-year-olds. TOM partially mediated this difference. Further, children – particularly 4- to 5-year-olds – conceptualized God as more knowledgeable of others’ transgressions than of their own. Study 2 probed whether 4- to 5- year-olds’ responses were due to wishful thinking (e.g., they did not want God to know their transgressions and therefore reported that God would lack this knowledge). Supporting this prediction, 4- to 5-year-olds attributed greater knowledge to God of their own, versus others’, pro-social acts. The extent to which children attributed knowledge of these acts to God predicted their own propensity to behave pro-socially by sharing with others. This work expands current understanding of religious cognition, particularly its connections with moral judgment and theory of mind.

description: Leptogorgia clavata (Horn, 1860)
(Figs. 16–18)
 Lophogorgia clavata Horn, 1860: 233.
 Leptogorgia clavata Verrill 1869b: 423.
 Material examined. Syntype: YPM 2268, 3 dry fragments, locality unknown (purchased), depth not given, donor A. E. Verrill (syntype of G. H. Horn, obtained from Philadelphia Academy), no further data.
 Syntype Description. The syntype consists of 3 small fragments, measuring 45, 15, and 10 mm. The largest one is slightly flattened, 4.0 mm in diameter, several stumps along the branch suggest that the branching was pinnate as Horn (1860) pointed out (Fig. 16A). Polyp-mounds are small, slightly raised, and numerous, arranged all around the branches. Colour of the colony is dull reddish-pink. All the coenenchymal sclerites are reddish-pink, and mostly capstans (Fig. 16B). They reach up to 0.075 mm in length, and 0.04 mm in width (Fig. 16B, 17); some are densely tuberculated, barrel-like capstans (Fig. 16B, 17). Spindles reach up to 0.10 mm in length, and 0.05 mm in width, with 3–4 whorls of complex tubercles (Fig. 17). Anthocodial sclerites are conspicuous, pale pink, long rods, up to 0.16 mm in length, and 0.03 mm in width with scalloped margins, some with bent axes (Fig. 16B, 17).
 Distribution. The syntype was probably found in Mazatlan, Mexico, and no other specimens of this species were available for examination (Table 2, Fig. 18).
 Remarks. Horn (1860) described two species of Lophogorgia from unknown localities (L. aurantiaca, and L. clavata), and one species of Rhipidigorgia (now Pacifigorgia englemanni), however, only a small fragment of P. englemanni and some fragments of L. clavata were found at YPM. It seems that the fragments of L. clavata were given to A. E. Verrill by the Philadelphia Academy, and he donated them to YPM (Breedy & Guzman 2002). None of the Horn’s complete specimens was found. The specimen of P. englemanni was the only one with collecting site recorded as Mazatlan, thus, Verrill (1868b) assumed that the other two were from the same locality. Because of the scant nature of the type material and the lack of any other specimen that matches Horn’s description, it is not possible to validate the taxonomic status of L. clavata. Herein we describe the type fragments for reference until new material that fits this species is collected.
 It is not possible to tell much about similarities of L. clavata with other species, but the conspicuous long anthocodial rods distinguish it at present (Table 1).

description: We examined differences among children in their endorsement of an adult’s claim, their subsequent empirical investigation of that claim, and their resolution of any potential conflict between the claim and their empirical investigation. American and Chinese preschool (N = 171, M = 4.71 years) and elementary school (N = 128, M = 7.59 years) children were presented with five, different-sized, Russian dolls and asked to indicate the heaviest doll. Children typically selected the biggest doll. Children then heard either a false, counter-intuitive claim (i.e., smallest doll = heaviest) or a claim confirming their initial intuition (i.e., biggest doll = heaviest). Children frequently endorsed the experimenter’s claim even when it was counter-intuitive. The experimenter then left the room. During the experimenter’s absence, older children who had heard the counter-intuitive as opposed to the confirming claim explored the dolls more than younger children, especially when subtly prompted to explore. Moreover, only older children who heard the counter-intuitive claim simultaneously picked up the smallest and biggest doll, a more deliberate test of the experimenter’s claim. By implication, children engage in selective exploration following a surprising claim. Older children’s more systematic explorations of what they have been told may reflect improvements in their ability to test such claims and in their greater sensitivity to the fact that unexpected claims can and should be empirically investigated.

description: We give the first full next-to-leading order analytical results in Chiral Perturbation Theory for the charged Kaon K \to 3 pi slope g and decay rates CP-violating asymmetries. We have included the dominant Final State Interactions at NLO analytically and discussed the importance of the unknown counterterms. We find that the uncertainty due to them is reasonable just for Δg_C, i.e. the asymmetry in the K^+ \to pi^+ pi^+ pi^- slope g; we get Δg_C = -(2.4 +- 1.2) 10^{-5}. The rest of the asymmetries are very sensitive to the unknown counterterms. In particular, the decay rate asymmetries can change even sign. One can use this large sentivity to get valuable information on those counterterms and on Im(G_8) coupling --very important for the CP-violating parameter epsilon'_K-- from the eventual measurement of these asymmetries. We also provide the one-loop O(e^2 p^2) electroweak octet contributions for the neutral and charged Kaon K \to 3 pi decays.

description: Children have repeatedly been shown to selectively prefer to learn from previously accurate informants rather than those who have been inaccurate in the past. However, the stability of individual differences in performance on such tasks has yet to be studied. We presented preschoolers with two identical selective learning tasks conducted one week apart (Study 1; N = 53) or two parallel selective learning tasks conducted one immediately after the other (Study 2; N = 54). Results on both studies indicate that preschoolers tend to rely on the previously accurate informant more often than chance, replicating prior findings, but also showed weak correlations between performance across trials and administrations. In Study 1, performance on the first administration weakly, but significantly predicted performance on the second, identical, administration; in Study 2, performance on the first task only predicted performance on the second (non-identical) task when informant order was kept constant. Furthermore, in both studies, changes to the order of presentation of informants between trials within a task disrupted performance. Neither age, sex, theory of mind nor vocabulary predicted individual performance. These results confirm that there is some stability in individual tendencies to selectively learn from an accurate informant, but this stability can be fragile and easily disrupted by superficial task characteristics, raising several questions regarding the suitability of existing selective learning measures for the testing of individual differences.
