description: Facial expression transfer between two unpaired images is a challenging problem, as fine-grained expression is typically tangled with other facial attributes. Most existing methods treat expression transfer as an application of expression manipulation, and use predicted global expression, landmarks or action units (AUs) as a guidance. However, the prediction may be inaccurate, which limits the performance of transferring fine-grained expression. Instead of using an intermediate estimated guidance, we propose to explicitly transfer facial expression by directly mapping two unpaired input images to two synthesized images with swapped expressions. Specifically, considering AUs semantically describe fine-grained expression details, we propose a novel multi-class adversarial training method to disentangle input images into two types of fine-grained representations: AU-related feature and AU-free feature. Then, we can synthesize new images with preserved identities and swapped expressions by combining AU-free features with swapped AU-related features. Moreover, to obtain reliable expression transfer results of the unpaired input, we introduce a swap consistency loss to make the synthesized images and self-reconstructed images indistinguishable. Extensive experiments show that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art expression manipulation methods for transferring fine-grained expressions while preserving other attributes including identity and pose.

description: Στην Διπλωματική εργασία, παρουσιάζεται ένα ενσωματωμένο σύστημα αναγνώρισης και εντοπισμού κράνους, χρησιμοποιώντας την υπολογιστική όραση. Συγκεκριμένα, το Object Detector εφαρμόζεται σε μία πλατφόρμα Google Coral με επιταχυντή Edge TPU, ώστε να επιτυγχάνεται ο εντοπισμός των αντικειμένων σε πραγματικό χρόνο, με μεγαλύτερη ταχύτητα και με σχετικά χαμηλή κατανάλωση ενέργειας. Τα αποτελέσματα των εντοπισμένων κλάσεων μεταφέρονται ως δυαδικά σήματα (λογικό ‘0’ ή λογικό ‘1’) σε έναν εξωτερικό μικροελεγκτή ο οποίος τα επεξεργάζεται και οδηγεί μία LCD οθόνη και ένα παθητικό piezo buzzer, ώστε να παράγεται θετική ή αρνητική οπτική και ακουστική ανατροφοδότηση στους οδηγούς ή συνεπιβάτες. Η εκπαίδευση των μοντέλων γίνεται μέσω της μεθόδου transfer learning που επιτρέπει το Tensorflow Object Detection API, στο προγραμματιστικό περιβάλλον Google Colab. Επιλέχθηκαν δύο αρχιτεκτονικές από το Tensorflow 2 Detection Model Zoo με διαφορετικές δυνατότητες, εκπαιδεύτηκαν με το ίδιο σύνολο δεδομένων και μετά τις δοκιμές τους στο Google Coral, συγκρίθηκαν και αξιολογήθηκαν οι επιδόσεις τους ως προς την ακρίβειά τους και την ταχύτητά τους. Στην συνέχεια, γίνεται λεπτομερής περιγραφή της δημιουργίας του συστήματος ανατροφοδότησης. Τέλος, θα συζητηθούν μέθοδοι για την πιθανή βελτιστοποίηση των μοντέλων και θα παρουσιαστεί και η κατανάλωση ενέργειας που έχει το καθένα.

description: The importance of Partial Redistribution (PRD) in the modelling of the Lyman Alpha and Lyman Beta emission lines of hydrogen in stellar atmospheres is examined using simple atmospheric models of a range of late-type stars. These models represent the sub-giant Procyon (F5 IV-V), and the two giants Beta Gem (K0 III) and Alpha Tau (K5 III). These stars are selected to span a wide range of surface gravities: 1.25 < log g < 4.00. The calculations are performed using the computer code MULTI (Carlsson 1986) with the modifications made by Hubeny & Lites (1995). It is found that PRD effects are highly significant, both in the direct prediction of the Lyman line profiles and in the application of hydrostatic equilibrium (HSE) to calculate the atmospheric electron density in static atmospheric models.

description: This presentation shows the link between the thought of Achille Mbembe and postmodern theories. Achille Mbembe combines sociology, anthropology, history and philosophy to explain how African societies became spaces of postcolonies after the official decolonization. Achille Mbembe describes the postcolonial social regime that characterizes African societies such as Cameroon. He also points out the Western (post)colonial discourse obsessed with Africa as a dependent peripheral space. Mbembe is deeply influenced by Foucault, Deleuze, Derrida and Baudrillard. He borrowed the notion of "simulacrum" from Baudrillard to illustrate the situation of these postcolonies where the political power is based on ceremonials and rituals.
This short lecture and slides presented an introduction to Achille Mbembe and was made in the frame of a course on Postmodern French Thinkers at Stockholm University.

description: We report further results from our imaging survey at 15GHz (lambda=2 cm) with the Very Long Baseline Array. This paper presents single epoch images for 39 sources, bringing the total number of objects in the sample to 171. Our sample is representative of a complete unbiased sample and it will be used for statistical analysis of source properties. We compare the observed brightness temperatures derived from our VLBA observations to those derived from total intensity variations at 22 and 37 GHz. These are consistent with intrinsic brightness temperatures in the range 10^10 to 10^12 K. We also present three new spectroscopic redshift values: z=0.517+/-0.001 for 0026+346, z=1.591+/-0.003 for 0727-115, and z=0.2016+/-0.0004 for 1155+251. Images from this VLBA 2 cm survey are available on the Internet under http://www.cv.nrao.edu/2cmsurvey.

description: The dream of physico-chemists to control molecular reactions with light beyond electronic excitations pushes the development of laser pulse shaping capabilities in the mid-infrared (MIR) spectral range. Here, we present a compact optical parametric amplifier platform for the generation and shaping of MIR laser pulses in the wavelength range between $8\,μ$m and $15\,μ$m. Opportunities for judiciously tailoring the electromagnetic waveform are investigated, demonstrating light field control with a spectral resolution of 60 GHz at a total spectral bandwidth of 5 THz. In experiments focusing on spectral amplitude manipulation these parameters result in a time window of 1.8 ps available for shaping the temporal pulse envelope and a phase modulation resolution of 100 mrad for several picosecond delays.

description: This noninvasive study aimed to understand the interaction between shield-triggered autoinjectors (AI) and skin at the point of activation, hypothesizing that the AI’s housing absorbs a significant amount of the user-applied force depending on shield design and skin characteristics. Twenty-seven volunteers used a test device measuring applied force versus shield force and indentation depth relative to shield length (2,4,6,8 mm) in standing and sitting positions. Significant differences were found between applied and shield force for the different shield lengths. Shorter shields resulted in significantly lower force transfer coefficients, with means ranging from 0.72 for the 2 mm shield to 0.94 for the 8 mm shield. ANOVA revealed statistically significant factors (p < .05), including position and gender, with females generally having lower coefficient values. Indentation depth increased with higher forces and varied significantly between positions without significant shield length impact. The findings confirm that an increase in shield length at the point of activation reduces skin friction with the housing, resulting in less force loss and a lower device activation force perceived by the user. Force loss can be further reduced by standing up. Understanding device-tissue interactions will support development of better AIs with fewer user failures.

description: Deleuze is certainly a difficult thinker to read because of his immense creativity of concepts. Deleuze's philosophy is characterized by an immanent ontology where things are connected. The principle of difference is essential as things exist in their difference and not in their identity. There is in this perspective no pure repetition in the sense of duplication. Even the copy adds something new to the original.
This short lecture and slides present an introduction to some concepts of Deleuze that was made in the frame of a course on Postmodern French Thinkers at Stockholm University at the advanced level.

description: We introduce a variant of the asymmetric random average process with continuous state variables where the maximal transport is restricted by a cutoff. For periodic boundary conditions, we show the existence of a phase transition between a pure high flow phase and a mixed phase, whereby the latter consists of a homogeneous high flow and a condensed low flow substate without translation invariance. The finite system alternates between these substates which both have diverging lifetimes in the thermodynamic limit, so ergodicity is broken in the infinite system. However, the scaling behaviour of the lifetimes in dependence of the system size is different due to different underlying flipping mechanisms.

description: Context. Re-architecting monolithic systems with Microservices-based architecture is a common trend. Various companies are migrating to Microservices for different reasons. However, making such an important decision like re-architecting an entire system must be based on real facts and not only on gut feelings. Objective. The goal of this work is to propose an evidence-based decision support framework for companies that need to migrate to Microservices, based on the analysis of a set of characteristics and metrics they should collect before re-architecting their monolithic system. Method. We designed this study with a mixed-methods approach combining a Systematic Mapping Study with a survey done in the form of interviews with professionals to derive the assessment framework based on Grounded Theory. Results. We identified a set consisting of information and metrics that companies can use to decide whether to migrate to Microservices or not. The proposed assessment framework, based on the aforementioned metrics, could be useful for companies if they need to migrate to Microservices and do not want to run the risk of failing to consider some important information.

description: Sustained siRNA release from nanocarriers is difficult to achieve inside the cell after entry: typically, all nanocarriers exhibit burst release of the cargo into the cytoplasm. Layer-by-layer (LbL) nanoparticles (NPs) can be constructed so that they escape endosomes intact, and subsequently exhibit sustained release of the cargo. Our work quantifies intra-cellular siRNA release from multilayered NPs, evaluates mechanism behind the sustained release, and optimizes the duration of release. Intra-cellular studies showed that NPs developed with four layers of poly-L-arginine, alternated with three layers of siRNA layers, were able to elicit effective and prolonged SPARC knockdown activity over 21 days with a single-dose treatment. For the first time, we have quantified the amounts of released siRNA in the cytoplasm and the amount of siRNA remaining inside the NPs at each timepoint. Furthermore, we have correlated the amount of released siRNA within cells by LbL NPs to the cellular knockdown efficiency of multilayered delivery system. This methodology may provide an excellent screening tool for assessing the duration of gene silencing by various nanocarrier formulations.

description: We investigate the conditions required for the production of electron-positron pairs above a pulsar polar cap (PC) and the influence of pair production on the energetics of the primary particle acceleration. Assuming space-charge limited flow acceleration including the inertial frame-dragging effect, we allow both one-photon and two-photon pair production by either curvature radiation (CR) photons or photons resulting from inverse-Compton scattering of thermal photons from the PC by primary electrons. We find that, while only the younger pulsars can produce pairs through CR, nearly all known radio pulsars are capable of producing pairs through non-resonant inverse-Compton scatterings. The effect of the neutron star equations of state on the pair death lines is explored. We show that pair production is facilitated in more compact stars and more massive stars. Therefore accretion of mass by pulsars in binary systems may allow pair production in most of the millisecond pulsar population. We also find that two-photon pair production may be important in millisecond pulsars if their surface temperatures are above about three million degrees K. Pulsars that produce pairs through CR will have their primary acceleration limited by the effect of screening of the electric field. In this regime, the high-energy luminosity should follow a $L_{HE} \propto \dot E_{rot}^{1/2}$ dependence. The acceleration voltage drop in pulsars that produce pairs only through inverse-Compton emission will not be limited by electric field screening. In this regime, the high-energy luminosity should follow a $L_{HE} \propto \dot E_{rot}$ dependence. Thus, older pulsars will have significantly lower gamma-ray luminosity.

description: Bimodal cellular poly(methyl methacrylate) with micron and nano sized (300 to 500 nm) cells with up to 5 weight percent of sepiolite nanoparticles and porosity from 50 weight percent to 75 weight percent are produced by solid state foaming. Uniaxial compression tests are performed to measure the effect of sepiolite concentration on the elastic modulus and the yield strength of the solid and cellular nanocomposites. Single edge notch bend tests are conducted to relate the fracture toughness of the solid and cellular nanocomposites to sepiolite concentration. The relative modulus is independent of sepiolite content to within material scatter when considering the complete porosity range. In contrast, a mild enhancement of the relative modulus is observed by the addition of sepiolite particles for the foamed nanocomposites with a porosity close to 50 percent. The relative compressive strength of the cellular nanocomposites mildly decreases as a function of sepiolite concentration. A strong enhancement of the relative fracture toughness by the addition of sepiolites is observed. The enhancement of the relative fracture toughness and the relative modulus (at 50 percent porosity) can be attributed to an improved dispersion of the particles due to foaming and the migration of micron sized aggregates from the solid phase to the microcellular pores during foaming.

description: Artificial neural networks thrive in solving the classification problem for a particular rigid task, acquiring knowledge through generalized learning behaviour from a distinct training phase. The resulting network resembles a static entity of knowledge, with endeavours to extend this knowledge without targeting the original task resulting in a catastrophic forgetting. Continual learning shifts this paradigm towards networks that can continually accumulate knowledge over different tasks without the need to retrain from scratch. We focus on task incremental classification, where tasks arrive sequentially and are delineated by clear boundaries. Our main contributions concern 1) a taxonomy and extensive overview of the state-of-the-art, 2) a novel framework to continually determine the stability-plasticity trade-off of the continual learner, 3) a comprehensive experimental comparison of 11 state-of-the-art continual learning methods and 4 baselines. We empirically scrutinize method strengths and weaknesses on three benchmarks, considering Tiny Imagenet and large-scale unbalanced iNaturalist and a sequence of recognition datasets. We study the influence of model capacity, weight decay and dropout regularization, and the order in which the tasks are presented, and qualitatively compare methods in terms of required memory, computation time, and storage.

 Discussion. In her study of 30,000 specimens of Culicoides collected in 29 Florida counties from November 1948 to September 1950, Elisabeth Beck (1952) provided the first records of C. travisi in the state in Escambia, Lake and Taylor counties. However, Blanton and Wirth (1979) apparently overlooked Beck’s (1952) records from these three counties when they only noted that “E. Beck (1956) stated that she had taken Culicoides travisi in northern and central Florida counties.” In the same paragraph, Blanton and Wirth continued with “Our records are from 5 counties, all in the panhandle:…”, but inexplicably, they only provided locality data of specimens from Franklin, Jackson, Taylor and Wakulla counties. Furthermore, their Florida map of this species also included locality records in Dixie and Liberty counties. More recently, Hribar and Grogan (2005) provided the first records from Monroe Co.

description: The flux ratio of Fe XXVI--Ly$α$ to Fe XXV--He$α$ lines ($I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$) is a sensitive indicator of the maximum temperature ($T_{\rm max}$), and therefore the mass of white dwarf stars ($M_{\rm WD}$) in cataclysmic variables (CVs). To examine and calibrate the theoretical $I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$--$T_{\rm max}$--$M_{\rm WD}$ relations, reliable measurements of $T_{\rm max}$ and $I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$ are necessary. In this work, we conduct a thorough investigation on 3--50 keV X-ray spectra of 25 solar neighborhood magnetic and non-magnetic CVs based on archival \textit{NuSTAR} and \textit{Suzaku} observations. The measured $T_{\rm max}$ are compared to the $I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$ and $M_{\rm WD}$. The results show the sampled CVs closely follow the theoretical $I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$--$T_{\rm max}$ relation. Moreover, all the $M_{\rm WD}$ estimated from $I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$ are consistent with the dynamically measured ones. We conclude that $I_{\rm 7.0}/I_{\rm 6.7}$ can be used as a good diagnostic for $T_{\rm max}$ and $M_{\rm WD}$ in both magnetic and non-magnetic CVs.

Two-Dimensional Hydrodynamic Simulations of Convection in Radiation-Dominated Accretion Disks

description: The standard equilibrium for radiation-dominated accretion disks has long been known to be viscously, thermally, and convectively unstable, but the nonlinear development of these instabilities---hence the actual state of such disks---has not yet been identified. By performing local two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of disks, we demonstrate that convective motions can release heat sufficiently rapidly as to substantially alter the vertical structure of the disk. If the dissipation rate within a vertical column is proportional to its mass, the disk settles into a new configuration thinner by a factor of two than the standard radiation-supported equilibrium. If, on the other hand, the vertically-integrated dissipation rate is proportional to the vertically-integrated total pressure, the disk is subject to the well-known thermal instability. Convection, however, biases the development of this instability toward collapse. The end result of such a collapse is a gas pressure-dominated equilibrium at the original column density.

description: Having a central position in the Eastern European region, Serbia has a high potential to base its economic development on various forms of cooperation with surrounding countries. Its geographic location enables Serbia to develop infrastructure, especially traffic infrastructure, cooperation in fields of tourism and agriculture, as well as frontier collaboration. When the neighboring countries join the European Union, our country will find it’s self in the European Union surrounding. Serbia's accession to the most significant European integration certainly is one of the major goals of economic politics.

Warm gas in protostellar outflows. II. EHV jet and outflows from OMC-2/3

description: OMC-2/3 is one of the nearest embedded cluster-forming region that includes intermediate-mass protostars at early stages of evolution. A previous CO (3--2) mapping survey towards this region revealed outflow activity related to sources at different evolutionary phases. The present work aims to study the warm gas in the high-velocity emission from several outflows found in CO (3--2) emission by previous observations, determine their physical conditions, and make comparison with previous results in low-mass star-forming regions. We use the CHAMP+ heterodyne array on the APEX telescope to map the CO (6--5) and CO (7--6) emission in the OMC-2 FIR 6 and OMC-3 MMS 1-6 regions, and to observe $^{13}$CO (6--5) at selected positions. We analyze these data together with previous CO (3--2) observations. In addition, we mapped the SiO (5--4) emission in OMC-2 FIR 6. The CO (6--5) emission was detected in most of the outflow lobes in the mapped regions, while the CO (7--6) was found mostly from the OMC-3 outflows. In the OMC-3 MMS 5 outflow, a previously undetected extremely high velocity gas was found in CO (6--5). This extremely high velocity emission arises from the regions close to the central object MMS 5. Radiative transfer models revealed that the high-velocity gas from MMS 5 outflow consists of gas with $n_{\rm H_2}=$10$^4$--10$^{5}$ cm$^{-3}$ and $T>$ 200 K, similar to what is observed in young Class 0 low-mass protostars. For the other outflows, values of $n_{\rm H_2}>$10$^{4}$ cm$^{-3}$ were found. The physical conditions and kinematic properties of the young intermediate-mass outflows presented here are similar to those found in outflows from Class 0 low-mass objects. Due to their excitation requirements, mid$-J$ CO lines are good tracers of extremely high velocity gas in young outflows likely related to jets.

description: In order to understand whether internal stresses in glasses are correlated or randomly distributed, we study the organization of atomic bond tensions (normal forces between pairs of atoms). Measurements of the invariants of the atomic bond tension tensor in simulated 2D and 3D binary Lennard-Jones glasses, reveal new and unexpected correlations and provide support for Alexander's conjecture about the non-random character of internal stresses in amorphous solids.
