description: The morphology of the first three-dimensional islands appearing during strained growth of SiGe alloys on Si(001) was investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. High resolution images of individual islands and a statistical analysis of island shapes were used to reconstruct the evolution of the island shape as a function of size. As they grow, islands undergo a transition from completely unfacetted rough mounds (prepyramids) to partially {105} facetted islands and then they gradually evolve to {105} facetted pyramids. The results are in good agreement with the predictions of a recently proposed theoretical model.

Abstract.

Quantum mechanical calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) are the workhorse in today’s computational materials design. Here we explore the possibility to accelerate the DFT calculations with potentials generated from a surrogate machine learning model. Finding a better starting potential could drastically reduce the number of required self-consistency steps during the convergence of DFT calculations. The juKKR code (jukkr.fz-juelich.de) allows high-throughput ab initio impurity embedding calculations which we use to generate a training dataset of 10’000 impurities from most elements of the periodic table embedded into elemental crystals with the help of the workflow engine AiiDA. The choice of a structural representation of the atomic environment which a machine learning model can understand has been identified as a crucial step. We compare a variety of such representations as training input for our surrogate model. Finally, we benchmark results for the converged impurity potential from DFT calculations against the output of the trained surrogate model.

description: While end-to-end ASR systems have proven competitive with the conventional hybrid approach, they are prone to accuracy degradation when it comes to noisy and low-resource conditions. In this paper, we argue that, even in such difficult cases, some end-to-end approaches show performance close to the hybrid baseline. To demonstrate this, we use the CHiME-6 Challenge data as an example of challenging environments and noisy conditions of everyday speech. We experimentally compare and analyze CTC-Attention versus RNN-Transducer approaches along with RNN versus Transformer architectures. We also provide a comparison of acoustic features and speech enhancements. Besides, we evaluate the effectiveness of neural network language models for hypothesis re-scoring in low-resource conditions. Our best end-to-end model based on RNN-Transducer, together with improved beam search, reaches quality by only 3.8% WER abs. worse than the LF-MMI TDNN-F CHiME-6 Challenge baseline. With the Guided Source Separation based training data augmentation, this approach outperforms the hybrid baseline system by 2.7% WER abs. and the end-to-end system best known before by 25.7% WER abs.

description: We consider a model for the decay Bbar^0 -> rho^0 gamma in which the short-distance amplitude determined by the Hamiltonian describing b -> d gamma is combined with a typical long-distance contribution Bbar^0 -> D^+ D^- -> rho^0 gamma. The latter possesses a significant dynamical phase which induces a CP-violating asymmetry A_CP, as well as an important modification of the Stokes vector of the photon. The components S_1 and S_3 of the Stokes vector S = (S_1, S_2, S_3) can be measured in the decay Bbar^0 -> rho^0 gamma^* -> pi^+ pi^- e^+ e^- where they produce a characteristic effect in the angular distribution d Gamma / d phi, phi being the angle between the pi^+ pi^- and e^+ e^- planes. A similar analysis is carried out for the decays Bbar^0 -> Kbar^* gamma and Bbar^0 -> Kbar^* gamma^* -> pi^+ K^- e^+ e^-

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: Air Space has become an increasingly commodified and militarized landscape that is heavily occupied by machines. The acceleration of technology by state and corporate powers has resulted in an unequal relationship between private and public property distribution and operation in supersurface space. This investigation uses Paul Virilio’s analysis of dromological space as a conceptual framework to understand spatial politics in air space, and how private citizens might reclaim this territory in order to build agency within it. Paul Virilio refers to dromological space as space governed by the acceleration of technology—specifically tied to machinic advancements sustained by the military industrial complex. These values are reflected in recent developments in air space—specifically hybrid technologies such as Google’s Project Loon which are designed to evade legal and technological classifications in order to ambiguously occupy air space. This research provides four provocations; tales told through architectural objects at 18 km, 79 km, 408 km, and 35 786 km which aim to question systems of power Above Ground Level.

description: Farmers in western Madagascar live in an arid region that makes it difficult to survive on their own production. As in many other regions in less developed countries, there is a big initiative to improve agricultural production. Agricultural development is particularly important for a country like Madagascar, with 77.8% of the population living in rural settings (Rasambainarivo & Ranaivoarivelo, 2003). In such a dry region, it is important to understand whether large-scale investments in irrigation infrastructure can improve outcomes for smallholder farmers. To do so, we focused on crop yields, cropping in multiple seasons and improved agricultural practices. We identified these outcomes as key indicators of improved agricultural livelihoods. Appui au Développement du Menabe et du Melaky (AD2M) farmers had the opportunity to change the way they grow crops. The programme created new irrigation infrastructure in areas that had not been irrigated, and rehabilitated existing irrigation infrastructure when possible. The irrigation allowed farmers to use better agricultural techniques. For example, they potentially could manage water flow to crops better during the primary growing season, and could support a second growing season with the more efficient water supply. We would expect crop yields to increase if farmers followed these techniques.

description: The aim of this thesis is to create an algorithm for optimizing the energy management of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in a Smart Grid. We studied the Technical Specifications OSCP, OCPP (version 2.0.1) and understood the various definitions. Next, we designed an algorithm that will accept the data of the charging stations, and will suggest the optimal value for charging each vehicle according to some parameters such as the existing power of the system, the demanded power of the vehicle and the charging priority of each vehicle. The development of the algorithm as well as the system with which the correct operation of the algorithm will be tested, were carried out afterwards. By using the Java Spring Framework we created web services to simulate the various entities of a Smart Grid such as Transformers, vehicles, charging stations. In addition, due to the integration of such systems in the Cloud and the use of such services in IoT systems, we decided to convert the various services into micro services. So, we used Docker, Kubernetes and Minikube.

description: We prove that every mapping torus of any free group endomorphism is residually finite. We show how to use a not yet published result of E. Hrushovski to extend our result to arbitrary linear groups. The proof uses algebraic self-maps of affine spaces over finite fields. In particular, we prove that when such a map is dominant, the set of its fixed closed scheme points is Zariski dense in the affine space.

description: Cosmic strings are generically predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. We propose a new avenue for detecting cosmic strings through their effect on the filamentary structure in the cosmic web. Using cosmological simulations of the density wake from a cosmic string, we examine a variety of filament structure probes. We show that the largest effect of the cosmic string is an overdensity in the filament distribution around the string wake. The signal from the overdensity is stronger at higher redshift, and more robust with a wider field. We analyze the spatial distribution of filaments from a publicly available catalog of filaments built from SDSS galaxies. With existing data, we find no evidence for the presence of a cosmic string wake with string tension parameter $Gμ$ above $5\times 10^{-6}$. However, we project WFIRST will be able to detect a signal from such a wake at the $99\%$ confidence level at redshift $z=2$, with significantly higher confidence and the possibility of probing lower tensions ($Gμ\sim 10^{-6}$), at $z=10$. The sensitivity of this method is not competitive with constraints derived from the CMB. However, it provides an independent discovery channel at low redshift, which could be a smoking-gun in scenarios where the CMB bound can be weakened.

description: The field dependence of low-temperature thermal conductivity $κ(H)$ observed on cuprates is explained by calculating $κ(H)$ microscopically. The heat current carried by low-lying quasiparticles around a vortex core decreases with $H$ due to its depletion by the $H$-induced moment centered at a core for an underdoped case. This leads to a common and consistent picture on an ``anomalous core''. $κ(H,T)$ is found to be a useful tool for probing quasiparticle structures in the mixed state in general.

description: We present a family of policies that, integrated within a runtime task scheduler (Nanox), pursue the goal of improving the energy efficiency of task-parallel executions with no intervention from the programmer. The proposed policies tackle the problem by modifying the core operating frequency via DVFS mechanisms, or by enabling/disabling the mapping of tasks to specific cores at selected execution points, depending on the internal status of the scheduler. Experimental results on an asymmetric SoC (Exynos 5422) and for a specific operation (Cholesky factorization) reveal gains up to 29% in terms of energy efficiency and considerable reductions in average power.

description: Ce texte vise à étudier les perceptions d’étudiant·es de leurs apprentissages en lien avec des sentiments/émotions lors de tâches de production et de réception de feedbacks entre pairs articulées dans un dispositif d’évaluation continue pour apprendre. Les résultats montrent que les tâches de production et de réception de feedbacks peuvent provoquer des émotions positives qui peuvent augmenter la motivation et l’implication dans les tâches, des émotions négatives désactivantes, qui peuvent diminuer la motivation et l’implication, et des émotions négatives activantes, qui peuvent favoriser l’apprentissage. En particulier, des émotions de doutes et de déstabilisation face à la maîtrise des contenus peuvent susciter un besoin d’apprendre, qui, combiné à une certaine pression évaluative et à un sentiment de responsabilité, semblent représenter un véritable tremplin pour la régulation des apprentissages. Cette étude donne à voir qu’il est particulièrement important de prendre en compte les dimensions affectives lors de l’implémentation d’évaluation entre pairs à l’université.

description: Agricultural economics and policy planning make use of – and rely on – agricultural statistics. Individual agricultural firms, as they are represented in statistical systems, are usually treated as independent economic decision-makers. Our paper is investigating the impacts of holding structures on statistical and economic parameters. Therefore, the paper will draw on empirical evidence which was generated in a local case study in seven communities in the Northeast of Germany. It is argued that cross-regional investors systematically ’assemble‘ agriholdings based on their overall business strategy. If large holding structures exist, the individual business perspective may create a flawed representation of farm structures.

description: Depletion studies provide a way to understand the chemical composition of interstellar dust grains. We here examine 23 gamma-ray bursts (GRB) optical afterglow spectra (spanning 0.696% significance) between the total-to-selective extinction, R_V, and the dust-phase column densities of Si and Fe. Since a large fraction of interstellar iron is locked in silicate grains, this indicates that high Si and Fe depletion leads to an increase in the fraction of large silicate grains and vice versa. This suggests that silicates play a vital role to induce the entire extinction at any wavelength. On the other hand, the far-UV extinction is usually attributed to the presence of small silicates. However, we find no trend between the far-UV parameter of the extinction curve, c_4, and the abundance of Si and Fe in the dust phase. We, therefore, propose that the far-UV extinction could be a combined effect of small (probably nanoparticles) dust grains from various species.

description: In this Master Thesis the problem of inverse kinematics for a 6 degrees of freedom robotic arm is studied. Deep neural networks are employed to achieve lower computation time compared to traditional iterative methods. To achieve better performance, the model topology is incorporated inside the neural network in the form of an extra layer that calculates the forward kinematics. A variant of this approach is also presented where the forwards kinematics are calculated by an autoencoder. Moreover, to make the neural network model avoid the singularity points, the condition number of the Jacobian matrix of the robotic arm is calculated and taken into account inside the loss function. The inverse kinematics problem is studied for both the case where only end effector position is controlled and for the case where end effector position and orientation are controlled.
description: Στην παρούσα εργασία παρουσιάζεται η επίλυση του αντίστροφου κινηματικού προβλήματος ενός ρομποτικού βραχίονα έξι βαθμών ελευθερίας με τη χρήση νευρωνικών δικτύων. Στο αντίστροφο κινηματικο πρόβλημα στόχος είναι η εύρεση των θέσεων των αρθρώσεων του ρομποτικού βραχίονα για μια επιθυμητή θέση ή/και προσανατολισμό του άκρου του βραχίονα. Μία από τις πιο δημοφιλείς μεθόδους για την επίλυση αυτού του προβλήματος είναι η αντιστροφή του Ιακωβιανού πίνακα του μηχανισμού. Η μέθοδος αυτή μπορεί να οδηγήσει σε λύσεις μεγάλης ακρίβειας, αλλά απαιτεί μεγάλο υπολογιστικό χρόνο. Ως εναλλακτικός τρόπος επίλυσης για την μείωση του χρόνου επίλυσης προτείνονται τα νευρωνικά δίκτυα. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, προτείνονται οι εξής αρχιτεκτονικές. Ένα νευρωνικό δίκτυο όπου οι εξισώσεις από το ευθύ κινηματικό μοντέλο είναι ενσωματωμένες σε ένα μη εκπαιδεύσιμο επίπεδο. Ένα νευρωνικό δίκτυο όπου το μη εκπαιδεύσιμο επίπεδο με τις εξισώσεις από το ευθύ κινηματικό μοντέλο αντικαθίσταται από ένα νευρωνικό δίκτυο (Αυτοκωδικοποιητής). Ένα νευρωνικό δίκτυο το οποίο μαθαίνει να αποφεύγει γωνίες του μηχανισμού που οδηγούν σε μη αντιστρεψιμότητα του Ιακωβιανού πίνακα με την εισαγωγή του δείκτη κατάστασης του Ιακωβιανού πίνακα στη συνάρτηση απώλειας. Ένα νευρωνικό δίκτυο το οποίο μαθαίνει να εκτελεί την συντομότερη διαδρομή από την αρχική του θέση.

Trilepton + top signal from chargino-neutralino decays of MSSM charged Higgs bosons at the LHC

description: We perform for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) a detailed study of charged Higgs boson production via the top-bottom quark associated mode followed by decays into a chargino and a neutralino, with masses and couplings as given by the general Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We focus our attention on the region of parameter space where the charged Higgs is heavier than the top quark, with intermediate values of tan beta. In this region, the identification of charged Higgs bosons via decays into Standard Model (SM) particles has proven to be ineffective. Modelling the CMS detector, we find that a signature consisting of three hard leptons accompanied by a hadronically reconstructed top quark plus substantial missing transverse energy, which may result from charged Higgs decays into neutralinos and charginos, can be made viable over a large variety of initially overwhelming SM and MSSM backgrounds, provided MSSM input parameters are favourable: notably, a small mu parameter and light sleptons are important prerequisites. We quantify these statements by performing a fairly extensive scan of the parameter space, including realistic hadron-level simulations, and delineate some potential discovery regions.

description: This report presents the results of an ex-post impact assessment of the Participatory Small-scale Irrigation Development Programme (PASIDP), a project financed by IFAD and implemented in Ethiopia between 2008 and 2015. This agricultural project aimed at improving food security and increasing income of beneficiaries by providing access to small-scale irrigation infrastructure systems in four regions of Ethiopia. The objective of the impact assessment was to investigate both the sustainability of the impacts and the resilience capacity of beneficiaries in a context characterized by adverse weather conditions. An innovative data collection was put in place to study the impact on areas where a protracted drought was taking place. In particular, using panel data that allowed one to follow household over time, the analysis tested whether the irrigation schemes were able to provide a protective and sustained effect towards reducing vulnerability and enhancing smallholders households resilience capacity to cope with the longer term variability of the climatic shocks.

description: The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) is a mission dedicated to the search for exoplanetary transits through high precision photometry of bright stars already known to host planets. The telescope will provide the unique capability of determining accurate radii for planets whose masses have already been measured from ground-based spectroscopic surveys. This will allow a first-order characterisation of the planets' internal structure through the determination of the bulk density, providing direct insight into their composition. The CHEOPS simulator has been developed to perform detailed simulations of the data which is to be received from the CHEOPS satellite. It generates accurately simulated images that can be used to explore design options and to test the on-ground data processing, in particular, the pipeline producing the photometric time series. It is, thus, a critical tool for estimating the photometric performance expected in flight and to guide photometric analysis. It can be used to prepare observations, consolidate the noise budget, and asses the performance of CHEOPS in realistic astrophysical fields that are difficult to reproduce in the laboratory. Images generated by CHEOPSim take account of many detailed effects, including variations of the incident signal flux and backgrounds, and detailed modelling of the satellite orbit, pointing jitter and telescope optics, as well as the CCD response, noise and readout. The simulator results presented in this paper have been used in the context of validating the data reduction processing chain, in which image time series generated by CHEOPSim were used to generate light curves for simulated planetary transits across real and simulated targets. Independent analysts were successfully able to detect the planets and measure their radii to an accuracy within the science requirements of the mission.

On the dynamic allocation Of assets subject to failure and replenishment
Creators: name: Ford, Stephen
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: Problems of the dynamic allocation of assets subject to both failure and replenishment are common. We consider a problem inspired by naval search, where unmanned aerial vehicles are required to search an area of ocean for targets. The vehicles will require refuelling or rearming; this is represented by the aspects of failure and replenishment. Similar models can arise from considering problems of search and rescue, environmental monitoring, or project management. We formulate several versions of the problem, initially using the framework of a Markov decision process, bearing in mind trade-offs between real-world fidelity and mathematical tractability. We first consider models where rewards are gained independently from different tasks, before moving on to consider a specific kind of dependence in the rewards. We use a variety of mathematical techniques, including restless bandits, to formulate near-optimal policies for a slew of models. We consider and investigate the various policies through comprehensive computational modelling. For the independent case, we find that a Whittle index policy is extremely close to optimal while being computationally efficient. For the dependent formulation, we create a class of policies guaranteed to contain the optimal, parameterise the space, then choose the best from a limited set of parameters, augmenting with a single step of policy improvement. We close with some thoughts about what we have learned, considerations about applying the results presented in this thesis, and a discussion of intensifications and extensions we did not have time to consider.

description: The recently proposed theory of "Asymptotically Free Mimetic Gravity" is extended to the general non-homogeneous, spatially non-flat case. We present a modified theory of gravity which is free of higher derivatives of the metric. In this theory asymptotic freedom of gravity implies the existence of a minimal black hole with vanishing Hawking temperature. Introducing a spatial curvature dependent potential, we moreover obtain non-singular, bouncing modifications of spatially non-flat Friedmann and Bianchi universes.
