description: While the body of research focusing on Intelligent Environments (IEs) programming by adults is steadily growing, informed insights about children as programmers of such environments are limited. Previous work already established that young children can learn programming basics. Yet, there is still a need to investigate whether this capability can be transferred in the context of IEs, since encouraging children to participate in the management of their intelligent surroundings can enhance responsibility, independence, and the spirit of cooperation. We performed a user study (N=15) with children aged 7-12, using a block-based, gamified AR spatial coding prototype allowing to manipulate smart artifacts in an Intelligent Living room. Our results validated that children understand and can indeed program IEs. Based on our findings, we contribute preliminary implications regarding the use of specific technologies and paradigms (e.g. AR, trigger-action programming) to inspire future systems that enable children to create enriching experiences in IEs.

Tides in the high-eccentricity migration of hot Jupiters: Triggering diffusive growth by nonlinear mode interactions

description: High eccentricity migration is a possible formation channel for hot Jupiters. However, in order for it to be consistent with the observed population of planets, tides must circularize the orbits in less than $\approx$ a Myr. A potential mechanism for such rapid circularization is the diffusive growth of the tidally driven planetary f-mode. Such growth occurs if the f-mode's phase at pericenter varies chaotically from one pericenter passage to the next. Previous studies focused on the variation of the orbital period due to tidal back-reaction on the orbit as the source of chaos. Here we show that nonlinear mode interactions can also be an important source. Specifically, we show that nonlinear interactions between a parent f-mode and daughter f-/p-modes induce an energy-dependent shift in the oscillation frequency of the parent. This frequency shift varies randomly from orbit to orbit because the parent's energy varies. As a result, the parent's phase at pericenter varies randomly, which we find can trigger it to grow diffusively. We show that the phase shift induced by nonlinear mode interactions in fact dominates the shift induced by tidal back-reaction and significantly lowers the one-kick energy threshold for diffusive growth by about a factor of 5 compared to the linear theory's prediction. Nonlinear interactions could thus enhance the formation rate of hot Jupiters through the high-eccentricity migration channel and potentially mitigate the discrepancy between the observed and predicted occurrence rates for close-in gas giants as compared to those further from the star.

description: Nanoplasmonic systems combined with optically-active two-dimensional materials provide intriguing opportunities to explore and control light-matter interactions at extreme sub-wavelength lengthscales approaching the exciton Bohr radius. Here, we present room- and cryogenic-temperature investigations of light-matter interactions between an MoSe$_2$ monolayer and individual lithographically defined gold dipole nanoantennas having sub-10 nm feed gaps. By progressively tuning the nanoantenna size, their dipolar resonance is tuned relative to the A-exciton transition in a proximal MoSe$_2$ monolayer achieving a total tuning of $\sim 130\;\mathrm{meV}$. Differential reflectance measurements performed on $> 100$ structures reveal an apparent avoided crossing between exciton and dipolar mode and an exciton-plasmon coupling constant of $g= 55\;\mathrm{meV}$, representing $g/(\hbarω_X)\geq3\%$ of the transition energy. This places our hybrid system in the intermediate-coupling regime where spectra exhibit a characteristic Fano-like shape, indicative of the interplay between pronounced light-matter coupling and significant damping. We also demonstrate active control of the optical response by varying the polarization of the excitation light to programmably suppress coupling to the dipole mode. We further study the emerging optical signatures of the monolayer localized at dipole nanoantennas at $10\;\mathrm{K}$. Our findings represent a key step towards realizing non-linear photonic devices based on 2D materials with potential for low-energy and ultrafast performance.

Review of Semileptonic $B$ Anomalies

description: We review the current status and implications of the anomalies (i.e. deviations from the Standard Model predictions) in semi-leptonic $B$ meson decays, both in the charged and in the neutral current. In $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions significant tensions between measurements and the Standard Model predictions exist. They are most pronounced in the branching ratios ${\cal B}_{B \to Kμ^+μ^-}$ and ${\cal B}_{B_s\toϕμ^+μ^-}$ (albeit quite dependent on the form factors used) as well as in angular observables in $B\to K^*μ^+μ^-$ (the $P_5^\prime$ anomaly). Because the measurements of ${\cal B}_{B_s\to μ^+μ^-}$ and of the ratios $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ agree reasonably well with the SM predictions, this points towards (dominantly) lepton flavour universal New Physics coupling vectorially to leptons, i.e. contributions to $C_9^{\rm U}$. In fact, global fits prefer this scenario over the SM hypothesis by $5.8σ$. Concerning $b\to cτν$ transitions, $R(D)$ and $R(D^*)$ suggest constructive New Physics at the level of $10\%$ (w.r.t. the Standard Model amplitude) with a significance above $3σ$. We discuss New Physics explanations of both anomalies separately as well as possible combined explanations. In particular, a left-handed vector current solution to $R(D^{(*)})$, either via the $U_1$ leptoquark or the combination of the scalar leptoquarks $S_1$ and $S_3$, leads to an effect in $C_9^{\rm U}$ via an off-shell penguin with the right sign and magnitude and a combined significance (including a tree-level effect resulting in $C_{9μ}^\mathrm{V}=-C_{10μ}^\mathrm{V}$ and $R(D^{(*)})$) of $6.3σ$. Such a scenario can be tested with $b \to s τ^+τ^-$ decays. Finally, we point out an interesting possible correlation of $R(D^{(*)})$ with non-leptonic $B$ anomalies.

description: We examine the temporal evolution of the modular entropy and capacity (in particular, the fluctuation of the entanglement entropy) for systems of time-dependent oscillators coupled by a (time-dependent) parameter. Such models, through the discretization procedure, fit into field theory problems arising from quench phenomena or non-static spacetimes. First, we compare the dynamics of the modular and Renyi entropies and derive the form of the modular capacity for the single time-dependent oscillator as well as chains with bipartite decompositions. In the latter case we analyse distinguished periodicities during the evolution and the role of various boundary conditions. Next, we focus on the dynamics of the capacity (fluctuation) of entanglement. We compare the results obtained with the predictions of quasiparticles models; in particular, we obtain a theoretical value of the initial slope of the capacity for abrupt quenches. We study also continuous protocols with the frequency that vanishes at plus (and minus) infinity, including a model in which the frequency tends to the Dirac delta. All the above issues are discussed with the emphasis on the analytical methods.

description: Depth Completion can produce a dense depth map from a sparse input and provide a more complete 3D description of the environment. Despite great progress made in depth completion, the sparsity of the input and low density of the ground truth still make this problem challenging. In this work, we propose DenseLiDAR, a novel real-time pseudo-depth guided depth completion neural network. We exploit dense pseudo-depth map obtained from simple morphological operations to guide the network in three aspects: (1) Constructing a residual structure for the output; (2) Rectifying the sparse input data; (3) Providing dense structural loss for training the network. Thanks to these novel designs, higher performance of the output could be achieved. In addition, two new metrics for better evaluating the quality of the predicted depth map are also presented. Extensive experiments on KITTI depth completion benchmark suggest that our model is able to achieve the state-of-the-art performance at the highest frame rate of 50Hz. The predicted dense depth is further evaluated by several downstream robotic perception or positioning tasks. For the task of 3D object detection, 3~5 percent performance gains on small objects categories are achieved on KITTI 3D object detection dataset. For RGB-D SLAM, higher accuracy on vehicle's trajectory is also obtained in KITTI Odometry dataset. These promising results not only verify the high quality of our depth prediction, but also demonstrate the potential of improving the related downstream tasks by using depth completion results.

description: Although the present-day orbital distribution of minor bodies that go around the Sun between the orbit of Neptune and the Kuiper Cliff is well understood, past ~50 au from the Sun, our vision gets blurred as objects become fainter and fainter and their orbital periods span several centuries. Deep imaging using the largest telescopes can overcome the first issue but the problems derived from the second one are better addressed using data analysis techniques. Here, we make use of the heliocentric range and range-rate of the known Kuiper belt objects and their uncertainties to identify structures in orbital parameter space beyond the Kuiper Cliff. The distribution in heliocentric range there closely resembles that of the outer main asteroid belt with a gap at 70 au that may signal the existence of a dynamical analogue of the Jupiter family comets. Outliers in the distribution of mutual nodal distances suggest that a massive perturber is present beyond the heliopause.

description: Upcoming imaging surveys will use weak gravitational lensing to study the large-scale structure of the Universe, demanding sub-percent accuracy for precise cosmic shear measurements. We present a new differentiable implementation of our perturbation-based shear estimator (FPFS), using JAX, which is publicly available as part of a new suite of analytic shear algorithms called AnaCal. This code can analytically calibrate the shear response of any nonlinear observable constructed with the FPFS shapelets and detection modes utilizing auto-differentiation (AD), generalizing the formalism to include a family of shear estimators with corrections for detection and selection biases. Using the AD capability of JAX, it calculates the full Hessian matrix of the non-linear observables, which improves the previously presented second-order noise bias correction in the shear estimation. As an illustration of the power of the new AnaCal framework, we optimize the effective galaxy number density in the space of the generalized shear estimators using an LSST-like galaxy image simulation for the ten-year LSST. For the generic shear estimator, the magnitude of the multiplicative bias $|m|$ is below $3\times 10^{-3}$ (99.7% confidence interval), and the effective galaxy number density is improved by 5%. We also discuss some planned future additions to the AnaCal software suite to extend its applicability beyond the FPFS measurements.

description: Federated Learning (FL) has been successfully adopted for distributed training and inference of large-scale Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). However, DNNs are characterized by an extremely large number of parameters, thus, yielding significant challenges in exchanging these parameters among distributed nodes and managing the memory. Although recent DNN compression methods (e.g., sparsification, pruning) tackle such challenges, they do not holistically consider an adaptively controlled reduction of parameter exchange while maintaining high accuracy levels. We, therefore, contribute with a novel FL framework (coined FedDIP), which combines (i) dynamic model pruning with error feedback to eliminate redundant information exchange, which contributes to significant performance improvement, with (ii) incremental regularization that can achieve \textit{extreme} sparsity of models. We provide convergence analysis of FedDIP and report on a comprehensive performance and comparative assessment against state-of-the-art methods using benchmark data sets and DNN models. Our results showcase that FedDIP not only controls the model sparsity but efficiently achieves similar or better performance compared to other model pruning methods adopting incremental regularization during distributed model training.

description: Speaker anonymization is the task of modifying a speech recording such that the original speaker cannot be identified anymore. Since the first Voice Privacy Challenge in 2020, along with the release of a framework, the popularity of this research topic is continually increasing. However, the comparison and combination of different anonymization approaches remains challenging due to the complexity of evaluation and the absence of user-friendly research frameworks. We therefore propose an efficient speaker anonymization and evaluation framework based on a modular and easily extendable structure, almost fully in Python. The framework facilitates the orchestration of several anonymization approaches in parallel and allows for interfacing between different techniques. Furthermore, we propose modifications to common evaluation methods which improves the quality of the evaluation and reduces their computation time by 65 to 95%, depending on the metric. Our code is fully open source.

description: Coronary stent designs have undergone significant transformations in geometry, materials, and drug elution coatings, contributing to the continuous improvement of stenting success over recent decades. However, the increasing use of percutaneous coronary intervention techniques on complex coronary artery disease anatomy continues to be a challenge and pushes the boundary to improve stent designs. Design optimisation techniques especially are a unique set of tools used to assess and balance competing design objectives, thus unlocking the capacity to maximise the performance of stents. This review provides a brief history of metallic and bioresorbable stent design evolution, before exploring the latest developments in performance metrics and design optimisation techniques in detail. This includes insights on different contemporary stent designs, structural and haemodynamic performance metrics, shape and topology representation, and optimisation along with the use of surrogates to deal with the underlying computationally expensive nature of the problem. Finally, an exploration of current key gaps and future possibilities is provided that includes hybrid optimisation of clinically relevant metrics, non-geometric variables such as material properties, and the possibility of personalised stenting devices.

description: The presence of 3-monochloropropanediol (3-MCPD) in edible oils has been widely reported with its potential health risks. The aim of this study was to apply optimized recentupdated and validated enhanced swift analytical indirect method for determining 3-MCPD in consumed edible oils (palm, palm olein, extra virgin olive, corn, sunflower, soybean, olive pomace) and blend of 5% sunflower oil with extra virgin olive oil, using selective and sensitive gas chromatography tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) employing deuterated 3-MCPD (3-MCPD-d5) as internal standard (IS) during the entire analytical procedure to obtain precise and accurate results. The occurrence and variation of 3-MCPD contents amongthe studied oils were found in different levels ranged from 93.1 μg/kg to 5634.1 μg/kg oil samples, with maximum value assigned for palm oil (5634.1 μg/kg) followed by palm olein(5576.8 μg/kg), corn oil (2447 μg/kg), sunflower oil (1817.3 μg/kg), soybean oil (1486.1 μg/kg), olive pomace oil (572.5 μg/kg), blend of 5% sunflower oil with extra virgin olive oil (210 μg/kg) and extra virgin olive oil (93.1 μg/kg). Palm, palm olein, corn, sunflower and soybean oils were found out of the limits recommended by the Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/1322, whereas, extra virgin olive oil, olive pomace oil and blend of 5% sunflower oil with extra virgin olive oil were in compliance and within the limits recommended by EU. Moreover, 3-MCPD content could be used as a good tool for authenticity and quality of genuine extra virgin olive oil.

description: Starting from the fully compressible fluid equations in a plane-parallel atmosphere, we demonstrate that linear internal gravity waves are naturally pseudo-incompressible in the limit that the wave frequency $ω$ is much less than that of surface gravity waves, i.e., $ω\ll \sqrt{g k_h}$ where $g$ is the gravitational acceleration and $k_h$ is the horizontal wavenumber. We accomplish this by performing a formal expansion of the wave functions and the local dispersion relation in terms of a dimensionless frequency $\varepsilon = ω/ \sqrt{g k_h}$. Further, we show that in this same low-frequency limit, several forms of the anelastic approximation, including the Lantz-Braginsky-Roberts (LBR) formulation, poorly reproduce the correct behavior of internal gravity waves. The pseudo-incompressible approximation is achieved by assuming that Eulerian fluctuations of the pressure are small in the continuity equation. Whereas, in the anelastic approximation Eulerian density fluctuations are ignored. In an adiabatic stratification, such as occurs in a convection zone, the two approximations become identical. But, in a stable stratification, the differences between the two approximations are stark and only the pseudo-incompressible approximation remains valid.

description: This article introduces an advanced analytical approach for predicting backorders in inventory management. Backorder refers to an order that cannot be immediately fulfilled due to stock depletion. Multiple classification techniques, including Balanced Bagging Classifiers, Fuzzy Logic, Variational Autoencoder - Generative Adversarial Networks, and Multi-layer Perceptron classifiers, are assessed in this work using performance evaluation metrics such as ROC-AUC and PR-AUC. Moreover, this work incorporates a profit function and misclassification costs, considering the financial implications and costs associated with inventory management and backorder handling. The study suggests that a combination of modeling approaches, including ensemble techniques and VAE, can effectively address imbalanced datasets in inventory management, emphasizing interpretability and reducing false positives and false negatives. This research contributes to the advancement of predictive analytics and offers valuable insights for future investigations in backorder forecasting and inventory control optimization for decision-making.

description: The mass ($M_{\rm TOV}$) and radius ($R_{\rm TOV}$) of the maximum-mass nonrotating neutron star (NS) play a crucial role in constraining the elusive equation of state of cold dense matter and in predicting the fate of remnants from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. In this study, we introduce a novel method to deduce these parameters by examining the mergers of second-generation (2G) black holes (BHs) with NSs. These 2G BHs are assumed to originate from supramassive neutron stars (SMNSs) formed in BNS mergers. Since the properties of the remnant BHs arising from the collapse of SMNSs follow a universal relation governed by $M_{\rm TOV}$ and $R_{\rm TOV}$, we anticipate that by analyzing a series ($\sim 100$ detections) of mass and spin measurements of the 2G BHs using the third-generation ground-based gravitational-wave detectors, $M_{\rm TOV}$ and $R_{\rm TOV}$ can be determined with a precision of $\sim 0.01M_\odot$ and $\sim 0.6$ km, respectively.

description: Deep neural networks based purely on attention have been successful across several domains, relying on minimal architectural priors from the designer. In Human Action Recognition (HAR), attention mechanisms have been primarily adopted on top of standard convolutional or recurrent layers, improving the overall generalization capability. In this work, we introduce Action Transformer (AcT), a simple, fully self-attentional architecture that consistently outperforms more elaborated networks that mix convolutional, recurrent and attentive layers. In order to limit computational and energy requests, building on previous human action recognition research, the proposed approach exploits 2D pose representations over small temporal windows, providing a low latency solution for accurate and effective real-time performance. Moreover, we open-source MPOSE2021, a new large-scale dataset, as an attempt to build a formal training and evaluation benchmark for real-time, short-time HAR. The proposed methodology was extensively tested on MPOSE2021 and compared to several state-of-the-art architectures, proving the effectiveness of the AcT model and laying the foundations for future work on HAR.

We describe the algorithm it relies on, which is designed in order to deal with point-like data, optimizing the ray-tracing calculation by ordering the particles as a function of their ``depth'' defined as a function of one of the coordinates or other associated parameter. Realistic three-dimensional impressions are reached through a composition of the final color in each pixel properly calculating emission and absorption of individual volume elements. We describe several scientific as well as public applications realized with {\tt Splotch}. We emphasize how different datasets and configurations lead to remarkable different results in terms of the images and animations. A few of these results are available online.

description: We explore the thermodynamic and global structural properties of a local patch of an accretion disk whose parameters were chosen so that radiation pressure and gas pressure would be comparable in magnitude. Heating, radiative transport, and cooling are computed self-consistently with the structure by solving the equations of radiation MHD in the shearing-box approximation. Using a fully 3-d and energy-conserving code, we compute the structure and energy balance of this disk segment over a span of more than forty cooling times. As is also true when gas pressure dominates, the disk's upper atmosphere is magnetically-supported. However, unlike the gas-dominated case, no steady-state is reached; instead, the total (i.e., radiation plus gas) energy content fluctuates by factors of 3--4 over timescales of several tens of orbits, with no secular trend. Because the radiation pressure varies much more than the gas pressure, the ratio of radiation pressure to gas pressure varies over the approximate range 0.5--2. The volume-integrated dissipation rate generally increases with increasing total energy, but the mean trend is somewhat slower than linear, and the instantaneous dissipation rate is often a factor of two larger or smaller than the mean for that total energy level. Locally, the dissipation rate per unit volume scales approximately in proportion to the current density; the time-average dissipation rate per unit mass is proportional to m^{-1/2}, where m is the horizontally-averaged mass column density to the nearer of the top or bottom surface. As in our earlier study of a gas-dominated shearing-box, we find that energy transport is completely dominated by radiative diffusion, with Poynting flux carrying less than 1% of the energy lost from the box.

description: Additional file 7: Figure S3. Age-standardized global map of gender disparity ratio, AML (A), ALL (B), CML (C), CLL (D), and other leukemia (E), 2017. The GDR is QCI score for females divided by QCI score for males, so that higher scores represent better care in females and lower scores represent better care in men. This figure illustrates the GDR in different countries and territories. Countries and territories are pictured by their GDR on a color-based scale where white represents the absence of disparity. Abbreviations: ALL = acute lymphocytic leukemia. AML = acute myeloid leukemia. CLL = chronic lymphocytic leukemia. CML = chronic myeloid leukemia. GDR = gender disparity ratio. QCI = Quality of Care Index.

description: The shear viscosity $η$ in the van der Waals excluded volume hadron-resonance gas model is considered. For the shear viscosity the result of the non-relativistic gas of hard-core particles is extended to the mixture of particles with different masses, but equal values of hard-core radius r. The relativistic corrections to hadron average momenta in thermal equilibrium are also taken into account. The ratio of the viscosity $η$ to the entropy density s is studied. It monotonously decreases along the chemical freeze-out line in nucleus-nucleus collisions with increasing collision energy. As a function of hard-core radius r, a broad minimum of the ratio $η/s\approx 0.3$ near $r \approx 0.5$ fm is found at high collision energies. For the charge-neutral system at $T=T_c=180$ MeV, a minimum of the ratio $η/s\cong 0.24$ is reached for $r\cong 0.53$ fm. To justify a hydrodynamic approach to nucleus-nucleus collisions within the hadron phase the restriction from below, $r~ \ge ~0.2$ fm, on the hard-core hadron radius should be fulfilled in the excluded volume hadron-resonance gas.

description: The paper examines comparatively and diachronically the generic structure of research article abstracts written in English for international scientific journals and abstracts written in Italian and published in Italian journals in the field of linguistics, with the aim of exploring generic and cross-linguistic variation over the last 20 years. The data consist of two small corpora of English and Italian linguistics research article abstracts spaced at ten-year intervals, namely 1997, 2007 and 2017. The analysis shows that the generic structure and rhetorical organisation of abstracts written in Italian conforms to the international conventions based on the norms of the English academic discourse community. However, they are rhetorically less complex than English abstracts. Diachronic variation has also been observed in the frequency and distribution of every single move across the two language corpora over the decades.

description: Asparagus azerbaijanensis Hamdi & Assadi (2017: 93).
Holotype:— IRAN. [Eastern] Azerbaijan prov.: 62 km Ahar to Tabriz, margin of road of Tabriz, 1400 m, 12 June 1976, Assadi & Maassoumi 20591 (TARI, not seen).
Additional specimens reported:— IRAN. Azerbaijan province: 15 km from main road of Makou-Bazargan towards Kelisakandi, 1800 m, 16 August 1991, Assadi 70831 (TARI); 13 km to Makou, on road from Marand, 1200– 1400 m, 28 June 1975, Assadi and Mozaffarian 30105 (TARI).
The new species was described from marl-gypsum hills around the road. The authors compared their species with A. touranensis and A. capitatus Baker (1875: 607).Apart from the type samples, two additional samples are listed in the protologue (Hamdi & Assadi 2017). None of these specimens are cited in the Flora of Iran (Assadi, 2023). The authors described the species as having only one cladode per fascicle. But the illustration (Fig. 1, p. 94) shows a long and 4–5 smaller cladodes per fascicle. In the gypsum-marl area between Zanjan and Marand, two species of Asparagus have been collected by the first author (Akhani & Salimian 14412 and 14213, see Table 2 for details on the collection site). We have identified one of the specimens as A. aff. breslerianus (14213) and the other as probably A. cf. azerbaijanensis (Akhani 14212). A final judgment requires further studies including examination of the type specimen.

description: We obtain a time-evolution operator for a forced optomechanical quantum system using Lie algebraic methods when the normalized coupling between the electromagnetic field and a mechanical oscillator, $G/ω_m$, is not negligible compared to one. Due to the forcing term, the interaction picture Hamiltonian contains the number operator in the exponents, and in order to deal with it, we approximate these exponentials by their average values taken between initial coherent states. Our approximation is justified when we compare our results with the numerical solution of the number of photons, phonons, Mandel parameter, and the Wigner function, showing an excellent agreement.
