description: The analytical performance and clinical application of measuring insulin and connecting peptide (C-peptide) by point of care (POC) assay were evaluated. A POC assay system (SelexOn, Osang Healthcare Inc., Anyang-si, Korea) was evaluated for precision, linearity, limit of blank (LOB), and limit of detection (LOD). Method comparison was performed with the Cobas Elecsys insulin and C-peptide assay (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Mannheim, Germany) using 215 and 201 patient specimens for insulin and C-peptide, respectively. For clinical application, insulin resistance indices were studied. Homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) 1 and 2, Quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUIKI), fasting insulin resistance index (FIRI), and other indices were evaluated. The coefficient of variation (CV) of imprecision for low, medium, and high concentrations was 10.8%1, 15.99%, and 12.05%, respectively, for insulin and 9.21%, 13.51%, and 13.77%, respectively, for C-peptide. The linearity was validated to 839.78 pmol/L for insulin and to 17.30 nmol/L for C-peptide. LOB and LOD were 8.05 and 9.72 pmol/L for insulin and 0.05 and 0.08 nmol/L for C-peptide, respectively. For the method comparison, the regression equation was y = 1.259x − 8.818 (r = 0.957) for insulin and y = 1.163x – 0.088 (r = 0.985) for C-peptide. The ROC value and overall accuracy were as follows: HOMA2 (C-peptide), 0.809, 79.7%; TyG, 0.788, 73.6%; CPR, 0.775, 74.8%; HOMA1, 0.725, 70.3%; QUIKI, 0.720, 70.3%; FIRI, 0.715, 70.1%; McAuley, 0.658, 65.1%; HOMA2 (Insulin), 0.645, 64.7%; Raynaud, 0.611, 61.4%, respectively. The POC assay system for insulin and C-peptide provided reliable results through a rapid and simple test that could be applied to clinical settings.

 L’espèce est largement répartie dans toute l’Afrique intertropicale mais, selon les régions elle y constitue des races différentes dont les aires géographiques ne sont pas encore bien délimitées. Aujourd’hui on distingue trois sous-espèces assez bien caractérisées: d’abord, la forme nominative, dont l’aire de répartition couvre une grande partie de l’Afrique occidentale et qui se rencontre du Sénégal au nord du Cameroun; ensuite, la sous-espèce antennatus Candèze, 1896, qui se trouve en Afrique centrale, notamment en Centrafrique et dans le nord du Zaïre; enfin, la sous-espèce katanganus Basilewsky,1958, qui est plus étroitement localisée dans le sud de l’ex-Zaïre, au Katanga et probablement aussi dans les régions limitrophes.
ÉCOLOGIE. — En Afrique occidentale, cet Élatéride vit dans les savanes très arborées, mais aussi, quoique plus rarement, dans les zones forestières fortement secondarisées. Le début de la saison des pluies, en février ou en mars, apparaît comme la période la plus favorable à son envol, et c’est alors qu’il se capture, souvent en nombre, au piège lumineux. Cette période d’apparition imaginale ne dure que trois à quatre mois; les femelles sont nettement moins communes que les mâles.

description: We show that on a Cayley graph of a nonamenable group, almost surely the infinite clusters of Bernoulli percolation are transient for simple random walk, that simple random walk on these clusters has positive speed, and that these clusters admit bounded harmonic functions. A principal new finding on which these results are based is that such clusters admit invariant random subgraphs with positive isoperimetric constant. We also show that percolation clusters in any amenable Cayley graph almost surely admit no nonconstant harmonic Dirichlet functions. Conversely, on a Cayley graph admitting nonconstant harmonic Dirichlet functions, almost surely the infinite clusters of $p$-Bernoulli percolation also have nonconstant harmonic Dirichlet functions when $p$ is sufficiently close to 1. Many conjectures and questions are presented.

Quantum fluxes at the inner horizon of a spherical charged black hole

description: In an ongoing effort to explore quantum effects on the interior geometry of black holes, we explicitly compute the semiclassical flux components $\left\langle T_{uu}\right\rangle _{ren}$ and $\left\langle T_{vv}\right\rangle _{ren}$ ($u$ and $v$ being the standard Eddington coordinates) of the renormalized stress-energy tensor for a minimally-coupled massless quantum scalar field, in the vicinity of the inner horizon (IH) of a Reissner-Nordström black hole. These two flux components seem to dominate the effect of backreaction in the IH vicinity; and furthermore, their regularization procedure reveals remarkable simplicity. We consider the Hartle-Hawking and Unruh quantum states, the latter corresponding to an evaporating black hole. In both quantum states, we compute $\left\langle T_{uu}\right\rangle _{ren}$ and $\left\langle T_{vv}\right\rangle _{ren}$ in the IH vicinity for a wide range of $Q/M$ values. We find that both $\left\langle T_{uu}\right\rangle _{ren}$ and $\left\langle T_{vv}\right\rangle _{ren}$ attain finite asymptotic values at the IH. Depending on $Q/M$, these asymptotic values are found to be either positive or negative (or vanishing in-between). Note that having a nonvanishing $\left\langle T_{vv}\right\rangle _{ren}$ at the IH implies the formation of a curvature singularity on its ingoing section, the Cauchy horizon. Motivated by these findings, we also take initial steps in the exploration of the backreaction effect of these semiclassical fluxes on the near-IH geometry.

description: TUS (Tracking Ultraviolet Set-up) is the world's first orbital detector of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). It was launched into orbit on 28th April 2016 as a part of the scientific payload of the Lomonosov satellite. The main aim of the mission was to test the technique of measuring the ultraviolet fluorescence and Cherenkov radiation of extensive air showers generated by primary cosmic rays with energies above ~100 EeV in the Earth atmosphere from space. During its operation for 1.5 years, TUS registered almost 80,000 events with a few of them satisfying conditions anticipated for extensive air showers (EASs) initiated by UHECRs. Here we discuss an event registered on 3rd October 2016. The event was measured in perfect observation conditions as an ultraviolet track in the nocturnal atmosphere of the Earth, with the kinematics and the light curve similar to those expected from an EAS. A reconstruction of parameters of a primary particle gave the zenith angle around 44$^\circ$ but an extreme energy not compatible with the cosmic ray energy spectrum obtained with ground-based experiments. We discuss in details all conditions of registering the event, explain the reconstruction procedure and its limitations and comment on possible sources of the signal, both of anthropogenic and astrophysical origin. We believe this detection represents a significant milestone in the space-based observation of UHECRs because it proves the capability of an orbital telescope to detect light signals with the apparent motion and light shape similar to what are expected from EASs. This is important for the on-going development of the future missions KLYPVE-EUSO and POEMMA, aimed for studying UHECRs from space.

description: Numerical simulation of bubble dynamics and cavitation is challenging; even the seemingly simple problem of a collapsing spherical bubble is difficult to compute accurately with a general, three-dimensional, compressible, multicomponent flow solver. Difficulties arise due to both the physical model and the numerical method chosen for its solution. We consider the 5-equation model of Allaire et al. [1], the 5-equation model of Kapila et al. [2], and the 6-equation model of Saurel et al. [3] as candidate approaches for spherical bubble dynamics, and both MUSCL and WENO interface-capturing methods are implemented and compared. We demonstrate the inadequacy of the traditional 5-equation model of Allaire et al. [1] for spherical bubble collapse problems and explain the corresponding advantages of the augmented model of Kapila et al. [2] for representing this phenomenon. Quantitative comparisons between the augmented 5-equation and 6-equation models for three-dimensional bubble collapse problems demonstrate the versatility of pressure-disequilibrium models. Lastly, the performance of pressure disequilibrium model for representing a three-dimensional spherical bubble collapse for different bubble interior/exterior pressure ratios is evaluated for different numerical methods. Pathologies associated with each factor and their origins are identified and discussed.

description: We present calculations for the anticipated shadow sizes of Sgr A* and the supermassive black hole in the galaxy M87 in the context of the MOG modified theory of gravity (also known as Scalar-Tensor-Vector-Gravity, or STVG). We demonstrate that mass estimates derived from stellar and gas dynamics in the vicinity of these black holes are the Newtonian masses of the black holes even in the MOG theory. Consequently, shadow sizes increase as a function of the key dimensionless MOG parameter alpha that characterizes the variable gravitational coupling coefficient G, and may offer an observational means to distinguish the MOG theory from standard general relativity.

Subjects: subject: 300 Sozialwissenschaften

description: The present paper draws on works that combine Marxist and Weberian traditions of social structure analysis to interpret the contemporary Brazilian political crisis as a distributive conflict involving four classes or strata (precariat, outsiders, established, millionaires), defined using five determinant vectors of social inequality: wealth, position, knowledge, selective association and existential rights. The four classes or strata considered saw their wealth, their existential rights, and their knowledge grow in the period between 2003 and 2013. However, in this period, the precariat and the outsiders ascended significantly in their social position, while the established lost social position to the extent that their power to exclude outsiders from social spaces formerly reserved for their own usage diminished. The same logic applies to selective associations with regard to gender and race, since during the Workers’ Party (PT) administrations there was a decrease in the power of men and whites to discriminate against women and blacks. This loss of position in the hierarchies of class, gender and race fed the resentment of the established against the PT government even in times when, in terms of wealth, they experienced an ascendant trajectory. Starting in 2014, the picture changed. The exacerbation of the economic crisis caused all of the strata, especially the outsiders, to lose wealth. The established, though less threatened by the outsiders (the most affected by the crisis), also experienced social decline as the recession advanced. Finally, the millionaires who had until then been gaining at all of the levels of inequality with the PT governments, lost at least part of their selective associations as the investigations into corruption advanced. It is precisely when the millionaires began to lose that effective changes in favor of the removal of the president began to occur.

The resulting string tensions satisfy the flux counting rule, which reflects the non-Abelian nature of gauge theory.

description: Reaction rates of chemical reactions under nonequilibrium conditions can be determined through the construction of the normally hyperbolic invariant manifold (NHIM) [and moving dividing surface (DS)] associated with the transition state trajectory. Here, we extend our recent methods by constructing points on the NHIM accurately even for multidimensional cases. We also advance the implementation of machine learning approaches to construct smooth versions of the NHIM from a known high-accuracy set of its points. That is, we expand on our earlier use of neural nets, and introduce the use of Gaussian process regression for the determination of the NHIM. Finally, we compare and contrast all of these methods for a challenging two-dimensional model barrier case so as to illustrate their accuracy and general applicability.

description: In this paper, our goal is to efficiently solve the Vlasov equation on GPUs. A semi-Lagrangian discontinuous Galerkin scheme is used for the discretization. Such kinetic computations are extremely expensive due to the high-dimensional phase space. The SLDG code, which is publicly available under the MIT license abstracts the number of dimensions and uses a shared codebase for both GPU and CPU based simulations. We investigate the performance of the implementation on a range of both Tesla (V100, Titan V, K80) and consumer (GTX 1080 Ti) GPUs. Our implementation is typically able to achieve a performance of approximately 470 GB/s on a single GPU and 1600 GB/s on four V100 GPUs connected via NVLink. This results in a speedup of about a factor of ten (comparing a single GPU with a dual socket Intel Xeon Gold node) and approximately a factor of 35 (comparing a single node with and without GPUs). In addition, we investigate the effect of single precision computation on the performance of the SLDG code and demonstrate that a template based dimension independent implementation can achieve good performance regardless of the dimensionality of the problem.

This one class is shown to unify, that is, contain as particular cases, all the integrable classes presented by Abel, Liouville and Appell, as well as all those shown in Kamke's book and various other references. In addition, the class being presented includes other new and fully integrable subclasses, as well as the most general parameterized class of which we know whose members can systematically be mapped into Riccati equations. Finally, many integrable members of this class can be systematically mapped into an integrable member of a different class. We thus find new integrable classes from previously known ones.

description: Cephalometric tracing method is usually used in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. In this paper, we propose a deep learning based framework to automatically detect anatomical landmarks in cephalometric X-ray images. We train the deep encoder-decoder for landmark detection, and combine global landmark configuration with local high-resolution feature responses. The proposed frame-work is based on 2-stage u-net, regressing the multi-channel heatmaps for land-mark detection. In this framework, we embed attention mechanism with global stage heatmaps, guiding the local stage inferring, to regress the local heatmap patches in a high resolution. Besides, the Expansive Exploration strategy improves robustness while inferring, expanding the searching scope without increasing model complexity. We have evaluated our framework in the most widely-used public dataset of landmark detection in cephalometric X-ray images. With less computation and manually tuning, our framework achieves state-of-the-art results.

description: We give a full classification of representation types of the subcategories of representations of an $m \times n$ rectangular grid with monomorphisms (dually, epimorphisms) in one or both directions, which appear naturally in the context of clustering as two-parameter persistent homology in degree zero. We show that these subcategories are equivalent to the category of all representations of a smaller grid, modulo a finite number of indecomposables. This equivalence is constructed from a certain cotorsion torsion triple, which is obtained from a tilting subcategory generated by said indecomposables.

description: Although double-precision floating-point arithmetic currently dominates high-performance computing, there is increasing interest in smaller and simpler arithmetic types. The main reasons are potential improvements in energy efficiency and memory footprint and bandwidth. However, simply switching to lower-precision types typically results in increased numerical errors. We investigate approaches to improving the accuracy of reduced-precision fixed-point arithmetic types, using examples in an important domain for numerical computation in neuroscience: the solution of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). The Izhikevich neuron model is used to demonstrate that rounding has an important role in producing accurate spike timings from explicit ODE solution algorithms. In particular, fixed-point arithmetic with stochastic rounding consistently results in smaller errors compared to single precision floating-point and fixed-point arithmetic with round-to-nearest across a range of neuron behaviours and ODE solvers. A computationally much cheaper alternative is also investigated, inspired by the concept of dither that is a widely understood mechanism for providing resolution below the least significant bit (LSB) in digital signal processing. These results will have implications for the solution of ODEs in other subject areas, and should also be directly relevant to the huge range of practical problems that are represented by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs).

description: This paper focuses on the significance of regulatory governance at the regional level. In doing so, it analyzes to what extent and how North-South negotiations give rise to particular forms of regulatory governance in the developing world. To what extent do these forms vary across policy areas? Which elements account for the observed differences and similarities? Empirically, the paper explores the negotiation process between the European Union (EU) and the Southern Common Market (Mercosur), which aims to promote trade liberalization on the one hand, and the harmonization of regulatory frameworks on the other. The focus is on the trade and cooperative agendas involved in trade facilitation and education. Findings suggest that the negotiation of North-South agreements impacts on the ways in which different forms of regulatory governance are expressed, but this varies among particular policy issues. Both the type of norm promoted and the capacity building mechanisms envisaged create a particular ideational and material context, all of which in turn affects the actor constellation – type of actor, specific role and network configuration – hence leading to different regulatory governance regimes among policy areas, yet within the same trade negotiation.
Updated Implications of the Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment for Supersymmetry

description: We re-examine the bounds on supersymmetric particle masses in light of the new E821 data on the muon anomalous magnetic moment and the revised theoretical calculations of its hadronic contributions. The current experimental excess is either 1.5 sigma or 3.2 sigma depending on whether e+e- or tau-decay data are used in the theoretical calculations for the leading order hadronic processes. Neither result is compelling evidence for new physics. However, if one interprets the excess as coming from supersymmetry, one can obtain upper mass bounds on many of the particles of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). Within this framework we provide a general analysis of the lightest masses as a function of the deviation so that future changes in either experimental data or theoretical calculations can easily be translated into upper bounds at the desired level of statistical significance. In addition, we give specific bounds on sparticle masses in light of the latest experimental and theoretical calculations for the MSSM with universal slepton masses, with and without universal gaugino masses.

 Très rare espèce qui se rencontre çà et là dans les grandes zones forestières de l’Afrique occidentale et centrale. Sa distribution géographique reste encore très imprécise car il semble que deux espèces, dont une serait spéciale à l’Afrique centrale, soient encore confondues. Il est probable aussi que Catalamprus antennalis (Fleutiaux, 1935), dont le type unique est un mâle, soit en fait synonyme de Catalamprus angustus (Fleutiaux), lequel est encore aujourd’hui uniquement représenté par des exemplaires femelles. Ce dimorphisme sexuel, qui paraît très accusé chez les espèces du genre Catalamprus Basilewsky, n’est à vrai dire pas exceptionnel parmi les Dicrepidiini afrotropicaux; il s’observe aussi fréquemment chez de nombreuses espèces de Propsephus, et il est même habituel dans les genres Pseudolophoeus Girard et Calopsephus Basilewsky.

description: Co-op City is the largest cooperative housing complex in America, possibly in the world. It contains more than 15,000 apartments with more than 70,000 rooms providing a home for more than 60,000 people. If Co-op city were not part of New York City, it would be the tenth largest city in New York State. Co-op City held out the promise of refuge from urban strife. and haven for the middle class. The residents would have the benefit of home ownership and freedom from landlord tyranny while remaining in New York City. They would live in big apartments with open views, lots of light, walk-in closets, parquet floors, free heat, and air conditioning. In addition, the 300-acre complex would be self-contained, featuring 90 stores and 6 schools. Co-op City would be a city-within-a-city. Originally, the complex attracted mostly Jewish, Irish and Italian families that lived in Tremont, Fordham Road and the Grand Concourse. The hope was that Co-op City would be a racially integrated community and a model for the rest of the country. This was not to be the case. At the outset, it was 75% Jewish. Today, it is over 75% black and Hispanic. This change reflects the greater transformation that took place in the Bronx itself. Early residents felt they had received a small piece of the American pie. Such warm feelings cannot hide the fact that from the start Co-op City was plagued by naysayers and critics. Architects called it “sterile site planning and uninspired architectural design,” “sterile and blunt,” and “fairly hideous.” Many saw it as the worst example of what New York City had become. “It is part of that New York which is ‘producing a bumper crop of human failure through environmental failure’.” These opposing views question the very nature of Co-op City. It seemed to promise a sanctuary and sort of utopia, but did the reality belie that promise? Co-op City's story is the story of urban America in the late twentieth century.

description: This paper is a broad and accessible survey of the methods we have at our disposal for Monte Carlo gradient estimation in machine learning and across the statistical sciences: the problem of computing the gradient of an expectation of a function with respect to parameters defining the distribution that is integrated; the problem of sensitivity analysis. In machine learning research, this gradient problem lies at the core of many learning problems, in supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement learning. We will generally seek to rewrite such gradients in a form that allows for Monte Carlo estimation, allowing them to be easily and efficiently used and analysed. We explore three strategies--the pathwise, score function, and measure-valued gradient estimators--exploring their historical development, derivation, and underlying assumptions. We describe their use in other fields, show how they are related and can be combined, and expand on their possible generalisations. Wherever Monte Carlo gradient estimators have been derived and deployed in the past, important advances have followed. A deeper and more widely-held understanding of this problem will lead to further advances, and it is these advances that we wish to support.

description: Correlation functions of the XXZ spin chain in the critical regime is studied at zero-temperature. They are exactly represented in the Fredholm determinant form and are related with an operator-valued Riemann-Hilbert problem. Analyzing this problem we prove that a two-point correlation function consisting of sufficiently separated spin operators is expressed by power-functions of the distance between those operators.
