description: For a transcendental entire function f, we study the set of points BU(f) whose iterates under f neither escape to infinity nor are bounded. We give new results on the connectedness properties of this set and show that, if U is a Fatou component that meets BU(f), then most boundary points of U (in the sense of harmonic measure) lie in BU(f). We prove this using a new result concerning the set of limit points of the iterates of f on the boundary of a wandering domain. Finally, we give some examples to illustrate our results.

Soils--Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon content

description: Industrial soil contamination is frequently unearthed by transportation agencies during right-of-way (ROW) construction, threatening both public health and the environment. As a result, transportation agencies may experience regulatory violations, fines, and construction delays. Soils co-contaminated with high-molecular-weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (HMW-PAHs) and metals are commonly encountered in Illinois and exhibit recalcitrance towards conventional treatment technologies. This issue is exacerbated in the fine-grained soils common to Illinois, where low-permeability and immense sorption capacity increase treatment complexity, cost, and duration. Contaminated ROW sites are spatially and temporally restrictive and require rapid in-situ treatments, whereas conventional soil remediation requires 1-3 years on average. Consequently, transportation agencies typically pursue excavation and off-site disposal to prevent construction delays. However, this solution is expensive, so a comparatively expeditious and affordable treatment alternative is needed to combat the ever-increasing cost of hazardous waste disposal. The objective of this work was to develop an accelerated in-situ treatment approach adaptable for use at any ROW site to cost-effectively remove HMW-PAHs and metals from clayey soil. It was hypothesized that an in-situ electrochemical treatment which augments electrokinetics with H2O2 could remediate both HMW-PAHs and metals in less than a month. Bench-scale reactors resemblant of field-scale in-situ electrokinetic systems were designed and fabricated to assess the electrochemical remediation of clayey soils contaminated with HMW-PAHs and metals. Pyrene, chromium, and manganese were used as model ROW contaminants, spiked into kaolinite as a model clay. Electrokinetics were imposed by a low-intensity electrical field distributed by graphite rods. Electrolytic H2O2 systems were leveraged to distribute electrical current and facilitate contaminant removal. Average contaminant removals of 100%, 42.3%, and 4.5% were achieved for pyrene, manganese, and chromium respectively. Future work will evaluate the treatment of an Illinois field soil co-contaminated with arsenic, benzo(a)pyrene and manganese. Successful development of this bench-scale treatment approach will serve to guide transportation agencies in field-scale implementation. The results from this work signify that electrochemical systems which leverage eco-friendly oxidant addition can replace excavation and disposal as a means of addressing clayey soils co-contaminated with HMW-PAHs and metals.

description: This paper contains an extensive combinatorial analysis of the single-peaked domain restriction and investigates the likelihood that an election is single-peaked. We provide a very general upper bound result for domain restrictions that can be defined by certain forbidden configurations. This upper bound implies that many domain restrictions (including the single-peaked restriction) are very unlikely to appear in a random election chosen according to the Impartial Culture assumption. For single-peaked elections, this upper bound can be refined and complemented by a lower bound that is asymptotically tight. In addition, we provide exact results for elections with few voters or candidates. Moreover, we consider the Pólya urn model and the Mallows model and obtain lower bounds showing that single-peakedness is considerably more likely to appear for certain parameterizations.

Robust nonparametric regression in time series

description: Consider a stationary time series (Xt, Yt), t = 0, ±1, … with Xt being Rd-valued and Yt real-valued. Let ψ(·) denote a monotone function and let θ(·) denote the robust conditional location functional so that E[ψ(Y0 − θ(X0)) X0] = 0. Given a finite realization (X1, Y1), …, (Xn, Yn), the problem of estimating θ(·) is considered. Under appropriate regularity conditions, it is shown that a sequence of the robust conditional location functional estimators can be chosen to achieve the optimal rate of convergence n−1(2 + d) both pointwise and in Lq (1 ≤ q < ∞) norms restricted to a compact it can also be chosen to achieve the optimal rate of convergence (n−1 log(n))1(2 + d) in L∞ norm restricted to a compact.

description: Max Zweig ist ein bis heute eher wenig bekannter deutschsprachiger Dramatiker. Obwohl er nie seinen Weg in einen Kanon gefunden hat, ist der Dramatiker durchaus gut beforscht worden. In seinem fast hundertjährigen Leben, welches sich über eine bewegte Zeit erstreckte, erlebte der Autor nicht nur beide Weltkriege, sondern auch die Staatsgründung Israels. Vielen seiner Dramen legt Zweig die großen Themen der Menschheit zugrunde. Er setzt sich mit tagesaktuellen Problemen auseinander und versucht stets zu warnen. Mit seinen Werken bemüht er sich, Mahnmale zu erschaffen. Zweig hat es trotz einiger internationaler Aufführungen seiner Werke nie geschafft, zu großem Ruhm zu gelangen. Er hatte ganz feste Vorstellungen, wie ein Dramatiker zu leben hat und verfolgte diese auch bis zu seinem Tod. Diese Untersuchung der These soll ans Licht bringen, welche Auswirkungen die Erlebnisse Zweigs auf sein Schreiben hatten.
Contextualized language models for semantic change detection: lessons learned

description: We present a qualitative analysis of the (potentially erroneous) outputs of contextualized embedding-based methods for detecting diachronic semantic change. First, we introduce an ensemble method outperforming previously described contextualized approaches. This method is used as a basis for an in-depth analysis of the degrees of semantic change predicted for English words across 5 decades. Our findings show that contextualized methods can often predict high change scores for words which are not undergoing any real diachronic semantic shift in the lexicographic sense of the term (or at least the status of these shifts is questionable). Such challenging cases are discussed in detail with examples, and their linguistic categorization is proposed. Our conclusion is that pre-trained contextualized language models are prone to confound changes in lexicographic senses and changes in contextual variance, which naturally stem from their distributional nature, but is different from the types of issues observed in methods based on static embeddings. Additionally, they often merge together syntactic and semantic aspects of lexical entities. We propose a range of possible future solutions to these issues.

Bayesian cluster analysis: Point estimation and credible balls

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Clustering is widely studied in statistics and machine learning, with applications in a variety of fields. As opposed to classical algorithms which return a single clustering solution, Bayesian nonparametric models provide a posterior over the entire space of partitions, allowing one to assess statistical properties, such as uncertainty on the number of clusters. However, an important problem is how to summarize the posterior; the huge dimension of partition space and difficulties in visualizing it add to this problem. In a Bayesian analysis, the posterior of a real-valued parameter of interest is often summarized by reporting a point estimate such as the posterior mean along with 95% credible intervals to characterize uncertainty. In this paper, we extend these ideas to develop appropriate point estimates and credible sets to summarize the posterior of clustering structure based on decision and information theoretic techniques.

Our main result gives an approximation that is used for numerical computation of these densities. We construct a discrete spectral measure, with explicit formulas for the number, location, and magnitudes of the atoms, that yields a stable density uniformly close to the original one. Sample graphs of two dimensional stable densities with dependence are given.

description: We consider the magnonic properties of two dipolarly coupled magnetic stripes, both deposited on a normal conductive substrate with strong spin-orbit coupling. A charge current in the substrate acts on the adjacent magnets with spin-orbit torques, which result in magnonic damping or antidamping of the spin waves, and hence a gain-loss coupling of the two magnetic stripes. The whole setup is demonstrated to exhibit features typical for parity-time (PT) symmetric systems. Phenomena are demonstrated that can be functionalized in magnonic devices, including reconfigurable magnonic diodes and logic devices. Alternative stripes designs and PT-symmetric, periodic, coupled magnonic textures are studied. Analytical and full numerical analysis identify the conditions for the appearance of exceptional points (EPs), where magnonic gain and loss are balanced and evidence nonreciprocal magnon propagation and enhanced magnon excitation around EPs. Furthermore, the dipolar coupling is shown to bring in a wave vector-dependent PT-symmetric behavior. Proposing and simulating a PT-symmetric magnonic crystal, we show how EPs and hence associated phenomena can be steered to a particular wave vector in a gaped spectrum via material design. The phenomena offer additional tools for magnonic-based communication and computational devices.

description: Introduced in the late 1960's, the asymmetric exclusion process (ASEP) is an important model from statistical mechanics which describes a system of interacting particles hopping left and right on a one-dimensional lattice with open boundaries. It has been known for awhile that there is a tight connection between the partition function of the ASEP and moments of Askey-Wilson polynomials, a family of orthogonal polynomials which are at the top of the hierarchy of classical orthogonal polynomials in one variable. On the other hand, Askey-Wilson polynomials can be viewed as a specialization of the multivariate Macdonald-Koornwinder polynomials (also known as Koornwinder polynomials), which in turn give rise to the Macdonald polynomials associated to any classical root system via a limit or specialization. In light of the fact that Koornwinder polynomials generalize the Askey-Wilson polynomials, it is natural to ask whether one can find a particle model whose partition function is related to Koornwinder polynomials. In this article we answer this question affirmatively, by showing that the "homogeneous" Koornwinder moments at q=t recover the partition function for the two-species exclusion process. We also provide a "hook length" formula for Koornwinder moments when q=t=1.

description: 2D animation is a common factor in game development, used for characters, effects and background art. It involves work that takes both skill and time, but parts of which are repetitive and tedious. Automated animation approaches exist, but are designed without animators in mind. The focus is heavily on real-life video, which follows strict laws of how objects move, and does not account for the stylistic movement often present in 2D animation. We propose a problem formulation that more closely adheres to the standard workflow of animation. We also demonstrate a model, SketchBetween, which learns to map between keyframes and sketched in-betweens to rendered sprite animations. We demonstrate that our problem formulation provides the required information for the task and that our model outperforms an existing method.

description: As restricted canonical correlation with a nonnegativity condition on the coefficients depend only on the covariance matrix, their sample counterparts can be obtained from the sample covariance matrix. For such estimators, asymptotic normality results are established, and the role of resampling methods in this context is critically examined. The effectiveness of the usual jackknife and bootstrap methods is studied analytically, and the findings are supplemented by numerical studies.

title: Adipositas bei Kindern und Jugendlichen
Creators: name: Lang, Anina
Year: 2023

description: Diese Masterarbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie für das Thema Adipositas in der Schule sensibilisiert werden kann und welche Möglichkeiten und Hindernisse Schulen haben, übergewichtige und adipöse Jugendliche zu unterstützen. Basierend auf einem Überblick über traditionelle Sichtweisen und Interventionen und deren Wirksamkeit werden kritische und moderne Perspektiven zum Thema Adipositas beleuchtet und erläutert. Anhand von Interviews mit Expert*innen aus der Adipositastherapie wird herausgearbeitet, welche Therapien und Lösungsansätze in Therapiezentren mit übergewichtigen Jugendlichen eingesetzt werden und welche Möglichkeiten sich für den schulischen Kontext ergeben. Zudem wird die Sichtweise von übergewichtigen Jugendlichen mithilfe von Interviews aufgezeigt und weitere Interventionen für die Schule werden erarbeitet. Zum Schluss soll die Arbeit einen Überblick geben, welche wirksamen, schulischen Interventionen möglich sind, um für das Thema Adipositas zu sensibilisieren.
description: This master’s thesis deals with the question of how the topic of obesity can be sensitised in schools and what opportunities and obstacles schools have to support overweight and obese young people. The work gives an overview of traditional views and interventions and their effectiveness. In a large second main part of this thesis, critical and modern perspectives on obesity are examined and explained. By means of interviews with experts, it will be analysed how they work in a therapy centre and which therapies and solution approaches they pursue with overweight adolescents and whether there are possibilities to apply them at schools. With the help of interviews with overweight adolescents, further interventions for schools will be developed. Finally, the thesis will give an overview of which effective school-based interventions are possible to raise awareness of the topic of obesity.
Schwinger's Quantum Action Principle: From Dirac's formulation through Feynman's path integrals, the Schwinger-Keldysh method, quantum field theory, to source theory

description: Starting from the earlier notions of stationary action principles, we show how Julian Schwinger's Quantum Action Principle descended from Dirac's formulation, which independently led Feynman to his path-integral formulation of quantum mechanics. The connection between the two is brought out, and applications are discussed. The Keldysh-Schwinger time-cycle method of extracting matrix elements in nonequilibrium situations is described. The variational formulation of quantum field theory and the development of source theory constitute the latter part of this work. In this document, derived from Schwinger's lectures over four decades, the continuity of concepts, such as that of Green's functions, becomes apparent.

description: Human-centered computing research has been increasingly applied to address important challenges in the health domain. Conducting research in cross-disciplinary teams can come with a lot of challenges in integrating knowledge across fields. Yet, we do not know what challenges HCI researchers encounter in building collaborations with health researchers, and how these researchers negotiate challenges while balancing their professional goals. We interviewed 17 early- and mid-career HCI faculty working in the United States who conducted research in collaboration with health researchers. Drawing from a Team Science framework, we share participants' lived experiences and identify major challenges that HCI researchers encounter when finding, collaborating with, and negotiating with health collaborators when building technologies. We propose ways to better support research collaboration aimed at designing technologies using human-centered computing approaches. This includes strategies to support HCI researchers at individual, institutional, research community, and funding agencies levels through tools to translate disciplinary approaches. We suggest institutional policies to support HCI researchers through training, networking, and promotion.

description: We investigate the electronic structure and magnetic properties of a $J_\text{eff} = 1/2$ iridate Ca$_4$IrO$_6$ and the implications of doping electrons and holes using ab initio density functional theory. Our calculations considering spin-orbit interaction reveal that although the Mott-insulating parent compound transforms into a conductor upon doping, antiferromagnetism sustains in the doped system, albeit with a grossly noncollinear arrangement of the spins. We find a strong spin-orbit interaction and magneto-crystalline anisotropy, causing frustration in the system, possibly leading to the highly noncollinear arrangement of spins upon non-magnetic doping. Our results may be important from the viewpoint of spintronics using iridates or other $5d$ materials.

Local Linear Estimation in Partly Linear Models

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1997

description: Let (X, B, Y) denote a random vector such that B and Y are real-valued, and X ∈ R2. Local linear estimates are used in the partial regression method for estimating the regression function E( Y/X,B)=αβ + m(X), where α is an unknown parameter, and m (.) is a smooth function. Under appropriate conditions, asymptotic distributions of estimates of α and m (.) are established. Moreover, it is shown that these estimates achieve the best possible rates of convergence in the indicated semi-parametric problems.
Leader Election in Multi-Hop Radio Networks
Creators: name: Czumaj, Artur
name: Davies, Peter
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing (cs.DC)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this paper we present a framework for leader election in multi-hop radio networks which yield randomized leader election algorithms taking $O(\text{broadcasting time})$ in expectation, and another which yields algorithms taking fixed $O(\sqrt{\log n})$-times broadcasting time. Both succeed with high probability. We show how to implement these frameworks in radio networks without collision detection, and in networks with collision detection (in fact in the strictly weaker beep model). In doing so, we obtain the first optimal expected-time leader election algorithms in both settings, and also improve the worst-case running time in directed networks without collision detection by an $O(\sqrt {\log n})$ factor.
THE PATHWAY FOR COENZYME M BIOSYNTHESIS IN BACTERIA
Creators: name: Wu, HsinHua
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: Mercaptoethane sulfonate or coenzyme M (CoM) is the smallest known organic cofactor, and is most commonly associated with the methane forming step in all methanogenic archaea. It has also been found in a small number of bacteria capable of the metabolism of small organics. Although many of the steps for CoM biosynthesis in methanogenic archaea have been elucidated, a complete pathway for the biosynthesis of CoM in archaea or bacteria has not been reported. Here we present the complete CoM biosynthesis pathway in bacteria, revealing distinct chemical steps relative to CoM biosynthesis in methanogenic archaea. The existence of two unique pathways represents a profound instance of convergent evolution. The five-step pathway (XcbA-E) in bacteria involves addition of sulfite, elimination of phosphate, decarboxylation, thiolation, and reduction to affect the sequential conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to CoM. Interestingly, the bacterial CoM biosynthetic pathway has evolved from members of large aspartase/fumarase and pyridoxal 5’-phosphate-dependent enzyme families. XcbC and XcbD enzymes belong to aspartase/fumarase superfamily (AFS), and catalyze the phosphate elimination reaction of phosphosulfolactate to yield sulfoacrylic acid and the β-addition reaction of cysteine on sulfoacrlic acid to produce 3-sulfo propionyl cysteine, respectively. It is intriguing that both reactions have never been reported in this family before, suggesting both XcbC and XcbD catalyze unique reactions and represent new members of this enzyme family. Moreover, both XcbC and XcbD requires discrimination of sulfonate moiety from carboxylate moiety, indicating both enzymes can recognize and place substrates in the proper orientation. With this work, we have made significant strides toward understanding bacterial CoM biosynthesis, which has evaded characterization in previous years.
