description: We consider the renormalization group equations within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory and compute two-loop contributions proportional to the top quark Yukawa coupling for the operator generating an effective Higgs-gluon coupling, focusing on the Yukawa-like operator. These two-loop running effects are relevant for processes where the effective Higgs-gluon coupling contributes at a lower loop order compared to the Standard Model contribution and where a dynamical scale choice is adopted. Such a situation arises, for instance, in the Higgs transverse momentum distribution and Higgs pair production. We investigate the phenomenological impact of our computations on these two processes and find that the two-loop contributions are significant and can lead to deviations of up to 20\% in the scenarios we consider.
A Genomic Comparison of Theileria equi to the Novel Parasite Theileria haneyi to Identify Candidate Virulence Genes
Creators: name: Wexler, Alexandria
Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Equine Diseases or Pathology
Parasitology

description: Theileria equi (T. equi) is a parasite that belongs to the phylum apicomplexa and is an obligate intracellular parasite that infects horses and other equids. It is transmitted via tick vectors and first enters host lymphocytes, or immune cells, where it undergoes a transformation from the infective sporozoite stage to the asexually reproducing merozoite stage. These merozoites are released into the blood stream where they enter host red blood cells (RBCs) and replicate within them. The invaded RBCs eventually burst or lyse and release progeny merozoites into the blood stream, which enter more RBCs and continue the cycle of invasion and cell lysis. The lysing of RBCs eventually leads to RBC deficiency, or anemia, and clinical symptoms in the host known as the disease equine piroplasmosis. Some horses that develop piroplasmosis from a T. equi infection will die from severe anemia while a majority become chronically infected and are life-long carriers and reservoirs for transmission. For horses that live in non-endemic regions, where the parasite is not common, a T. equi infection is more likely to be fatal. For this reason, the trafficking of horses from endemic to non-endemic regions is highly regulated and surveilled by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).
description: There is an abundance of research on the life-cycle and clinical outcomes of T. equi but very little is known about how this parasite induces the lysis of RBCs it infects. Furthermore, it is known that T. equi can persist in a life-long chronic infection, but how it evades the immune system for this duration of time is also not well understood. These factors contribute to the high virulence, or level of disease, which T. equi causes but lack of knowledge around their exact mechanisms makes it difficult to treat or prevent T. equi caused equine piroplasmosis. Recently, a new member of the Theileria genus was serendipitously discovered in a horse that had borderline positive tests for T. equi. Upon further investigation, this parasite was classified as a separate species but closely related relative to T. equi and was named Theileria haneyi (T. haneyi). Studies demonstrated that T. haneyi had a genome most similar to T. equi, compared to other well-known Theileria species, but that its genome was significantly smaller. Furthermore, horses infected with T. haneyi appeared to have much less severe clinical symptoms, indicating that the virulence of T. haneyi is much lower than that of T. equi. These two observations led to the hypothesis that the difference in genome size between the two parasites is due to genes in T. equi, not in T. haneyi, that code for virulence proteins. To test this hypothesis an in silico, or computer based, genomic comparison was carried out.

description: One of the main problems during vaccinations campaigns is the ability to determine eligibility, resulting in a maximum of 300 children vaccinated per day. The process is complex and the current way of working is prone to errors and time consuming. JennerX is a tablet-based mobile application designed to instantaneously determine vaccine eligibility and simplified to fit the needs of multi-antigen mass vaccination campaign in multiple rounds. There is an ongoing pilot in Central African Republic where more than 750 children are already registered. Manuel Gallego outlines costs, risks and implementation plans for deployment of JennerX in CAR and presents new objectives to improve the tool and coordinate its future use in new vaccination campaigns.
The Effect of False-Positive Newborn Screening Results on Parents

subject: FOS: Health sciences

description: This literature review addresses the question: What are the effects of false-positive newborn screening results on parents of infants who undergo newborn screening? This question was chosen because parents of newborns with FP NBS results are affected when their child has a positive screening result and it is important for healthcare professionals to understand the effects of such results. Nurses serve as advocates for patients and their family. Nurses who are aware of the implications of parents receiving a FP NBS result can better advocate for their patients’ needs. This literature review can also help to inform future policies regarding the delivery of NBS services and the education parents receive before their infant is tested.

description: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of trained scent detection dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) to identify SARS CoV-2 (COVID-19) and emerging variants from specific human scent imprints. The efficacy of scent detection dog testing was compared to the Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) method and qualitatively examined through various published studies conducted throughout the United States. SARS-CoV-2 shows rapid evolutionary rates; therefore, peer-reviewed literature was assessed to determine detection dog capacity to identify new coronavirus variants. Scent detection dogs exhibit great promise of becoming a reliable and immediate COVID-19 testing method, which empirical research demonstrated can be implemented at settings of mass gatherings. The second research method implemented was primary data collection, through the administration of a survey. The survey objective was to collect data on the comfort level of a random U.S. population sample regarding COVID-19 scent detection dogs compared with the at-home testing kit and RT-PCR testing efficacy. The survey was administered to 450 adult participants (limited to those 18 years of age and older) using the for-research survey distribution platform Prolific (https://www.prolific.co/). Prolific distributed the survey nationwide, resulting in the best opportunity for a regional unbiased participant population. The 450 participants were representative of a cross-section of the U.S. demographic. Principal Components Analysis (PCA), Correlation Analysis (CA), and UPGMA Cluster Analysis were applied to examine statistical properties among the 450 respondents based on 23 variables. Results indicated a variety of opinions regarding the employment of COVID-19 scent detection dogs and the reliability of the different COVID-19 testing method types. Overall, this study suggested a lack of knowledge and education in the sample population regarding COVID-19 scent detection dogs. With proper education about the current research, the survey results suggest there may be public support for (COVID-19) detection dog implementation worldwide.

description: The main question this work aims at answering is: ”can morphing attack detection (MAD) solutions be successfully developed based on synthetic data?”. Towards that, this work introduces the first synthetic-based MAD development dataset, namely the Synthetic Morphing Attack Detection Development dataset (SMDD). This dataset is utilized successfully to train three MAD backbones where it proved to lead to high MAD performance, even on completely unknown attack types. Additionally, an essential aspect of this work is the detailed legal analyses of the challenges of using and sharing real biometric data, rendering our proposed SMDD dataset extremely essential. The SMDD dataset, consisting of 30,000 attack and 50,000 bona fide samples, is publicly available for research purposes.

These slides look at the effectiveness off counselling interventions, and show that they significantly improve functioning and reduce symptoms.
Predictive Health Monitoring In Functional Safety

Publisher: name: Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft
Year: 2022

description: Functional safety first became a major issue for the semiconductor industry in 2011 with the introduction of the ISO 26262 standard for implementing functional safety in the automotive industry. Before that, functional safety had already been standardized in a general manner for all industries since the end of the 1990s in IEC 61508. However, in the field of industrial automation, where the IEC 61508 is mainly applied, safety systems have tended to be - and still are - built discretely. It is only in recent years that integrated circuits have started to emerge here - one that is clearly being driven by experience in the automotive sector. This is evidenced not least by how many developers in other industries, including those whose development work is not carried out in accordance with ISO 26262, reference Part 11 of the standard. Part 11 was published in 2018 and explicitly addresses its application to semiconductors. Another way in which the automotive industry has had an outsize influence on developments in the field of functional safety is strong cost pressure as well as weight and size limitations, combined with high unit volumes.

description: The digital transformation is fundamentally changing our industries, affecting planning, execution as well as monitoring of production processes in a wide range of application fields. With product line-ups becoming more and more versatile and diverse, the necessary inspection and monitoring sparks significant novel requirements on the corresponding Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) systems. The establishment of increasingly powerful approaches to incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) may provide just the needed innovation to solve some of these challenges. In this paper we provide a comprehensive survey about the usage of AI methods in NDE in light of the recent innovations towards NDE 4.0. Since we cannot discuss each NDE modality in one paper, we limit our attention to magnetic methods, ultrasound, thermography, as well as optical inspection. In addition to reviewing recent AI developments in each field, we draw common connections by pointing out NDE-related tasks that have a common underlying mathematical problem and categorizing the state of the art according to the corresponding sub-tasks. In so doing, interdisciplinary connections are drawn that provide a more complete overall picture.

description: Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS) offers researchers the opportunity to capture the internal validity of experiments. Investigators submit proposals, and TESS fields successful proposals for free on a representative sample of adults in the United States. This experiment was conducted to determine the extent to which the weight of an employee may play a role in how their performance is evaluated in the workplace. The 2729 respondents were divided between a total of 8 experimental conditions. Subjects were first randomly assigned to 1 of 2 treatments, either the Low treatment or the High treatment. If assigned the Low treatment, subjects were subsequently assigned to 1 of 4 conditions wherein a selected employee received a relatively low performance rating. In condition I, the slender female received a low performance rating, while all other employees received high performance scores; in condition II, the heavy female received a low score relative to the others; in condition III, the slender male received a relatively low score; and in condition IV, the heavy male received a relatively low score. Respondents were then asked to assign bonuses to each employee and rate the likelihood that they would recommend the individual for a promotion. This allowed for comparisons between the rating of heavier males and females versus their more slender counterparts, as well as exploration of whether this effect was more or less pronounced in perceived suitability for promotion versus general performance reviews.

description: We investigate a modified cosmological model aimed at addressing the Hubble tension, considering revised dynamics in the late Universe. The model introduces a parameter $c$ affecting the evolution equations, motivated by a modified Poisson algebra inspired by effective Loop Quantum Cosmology. Our analysis includes diverse background datasets such as Cosmic Chronometers, Pantheon+ Type Ia Supernovae (with and without the SH0ES calibration), SDSS, DESY6 and DESI Baryon Acoustic Oscillations, and background information of the Cosmic Microwave Background. We find that the model alleviates the Hubble tension in most of the dataset combinations, with cases reducing discrepancies to below $1σ$ when including SH0ES. However, the model exhibits minimal improvement in the overall fit when compared to $Λ$CDM, and Bayesian evidence generally favors the standard model. Theoretical foundations support this approach as a subtle adjustment to low-redshift dynamics, suggesting potential for further exploration into extensions of $Λ$CDM. Despite challenges in data fitting, our findings underscore the promise of small-scale modifications in reconciling cosmological tensions.

description: PEEK is a portable eye examination kit developed by LSHTM, Stewart Jordan and the University of Strathclyde to aid the eye disease diagnosis and care in low resources settings. It works with a sleeve that adapts to smart phones, guides the light from the phone lamp and amplifies the image, and serves as a database of captured images/videos. PEEK seems the perfect tool to use in MSF settings, could help overcome difficulties in accurate diagnosis of cerebral malaria and improve fundus examination that is often difficult for most non-ophthalmologist clinicians. In the Koutiala PEEK study, MSF assessed the correlation between PEEK and Binocular Indirect Ophthalmoscopy in identifying malaria retinopathy and papilloedema. Their results showed that PEEK can be a good tool to improve diagnosis of cerebral malaria, but will not change clinical management.

description: Quantum Computing (QC) is becoming an increasingly promising technology for modern computation, especially in the field of data driven approaches like simulation and machine learning. With the high momentum of research and development of new hard- and software, QC holds a big promise in redefining many state-of-the-art computation approaches today. On the other hand, the nowadays well-established field of machine learning (ML) faces challenges like the discrepancy of demand by industry and availability of ML experts, reproducibility, and efficiency in prototyping. To overcome some of these issues, several frameworks have been created for automating the process of pipeline construction, data preprocessing, model training and hyperparameter optimization (HPO), many of them open source. In most cases, these Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) frameworks implement a fixed subset of known approaches and algorithms, or encapsulate an established ML backend, that defines the available algorithms. This work describes the selection approach and analysis of existing AutoML frameworks regarding their capability of a) incorporating Quantum Machine Learning (QML) algorithms into this automated solving approach of the AutoML framing and b) solving a set of industrial use-cases with different ML problem types by benchmarking their most important characteristics. For that, available open-source tools are condensed into a market overview and suitable frameworks are systematically selected on a multi-phase, multi-criteria approach. This is done by considering software selection approaches [1], as well as in terms of the technical perspective of AutoML [2, 3]. The requirements for the framework selection are divided into hard and soft criteria regarding their software and ML attributes. Additionally, a classification of AutoML frameworks is made into high- and low-level types, inspired by the findings of [4]. Finally, we select Ray and AutoGluon as the suitable low- and high-level frameworks respectively, as they fulfil all requirements sufficiently and received the best evaluation feedback during the use-case study. Based on those findings, we build an extended Automated Quantum Machine Learning (AutoQML) framework with QC-specific pipeline steps and decision characteristics for hardware and software constraints.

description: Early detection of dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI), is essential to enable timely intervention and potential treatment. Accurate detection of AD/MCI is challenging due to the high complexity, cost, and often invasive nature of current diagnostic techniques, which limit their suitability for large-scale population screening. Given the shared embryological origins and physiological characteristics of the retina and brain, retinal imaging is emerging as a potentially rapid and cost-effective alternative for the identification of individuals with or at high risk of AD. In this paper, we present a novel PolarNet+ that uses retinal optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to discriminate early-onset AD (EOAD) and MCI subjects from controls. Our method first maps OCTA images from Cartesian coordinates to polar coordinates, allowing approximate sub-region calculation to implement the clinician-friendly early treatment of diabetic retinopathy study (ETDRS) grid analysis. We then introduce a multi-view module to serialize and analyze the images along three dimensions for comprehensive, clinically useful information extraction. Finally, we abstract the sequence embedding into a graph, transforming the detection task into a general graph classification problem. A regional relationship module is applied after the multi-view module to excavate the relationship between the sub-regions. Such regional relationship analyses validate known eye-brain links and reveal new discriminative patterns.

description: A standard two-qubit joint measurement is the well-known Bell state measurement (BSM), in which each reduced state (traced out one qubit) is the completely mixed state. Recently, a novel quantum joint measurement named elegant joint measurement (EJM) has been proposed, where the reduced states of the EJM basis have tetrahedral symmetry. In this work, we first suggest a five-parameter entangled state and reveal its inherent symmetry. Based on this, we define a more generalized EJM parameterized by $z$, $φ$ and $θ$, and provide the quantum circuits for preparing and detecting these basis states. There are three main results: (i) the previous single-parameter EJM can be directly obtained by specifying the parameters $z$ and $φ$; (ii) the initial unit vectors related to the four vertices of the regular tetrahedron are not limited to the original choice and not all the unit vectors in cylindrical coordinates are suitable for forming the EJM basis; and (iii) the reduced states of the present EJM basis can always form two mirrorimage tetrahedrons, robustly preserving its elegant properties. We focus on figuring out what kind of states the EJM basis belongs to and providing a method for constructing the more generalized three-parameter EJM, which may contribute to the multi-setting measurement and the potential applications for quantum information processing.

description: A face model is a mathematical representation of the distinct features of a human face. Traditionally, face models were built using a set of fiducial points or landmarks, each point ideally located on a facial feature, i.e., corner of the eye, tip of the nose, etc. Face alignment is the process of fitting the landmarks in a face model to the respective ground truth positions in an input image containing a face. Despite significant research on face alignment in the past decades, no review analyses various face models used in the literature. Catering to three types of readers - beginners, practitioners and researchers in face alignment, we provide a comprehensive analysis of different face models used for face alignment. We include the interpretation and training of the face models along with the examples of fitting the face model to a new face image. We found that 3D-based face models are preferred in cases of extreme face pose, whereas deep learning-based methods often use heatmaps. Moreover, we discuss the possible future directions of face models in the field of face alignment.

description: Das vorliegende Whitepaper ist im vom Bundesministerium für Ernährung und Landwirtschaft (BMEL) geförderten und der Bundesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Ernährung (BLE) als Projektträger begleiteten Vernetzungs- und Transferprojekt X-KIT entstanden. Ziel des Projektes ist eine übergreifende Vernetzung und Unterstützung für die vom BMEL geförderten KI-Projekte zur Ernährungs- und Landwirtschaft sowie für den ländlichen Raum zu ermöglichen. Zu diesem Zweck wurden in dem Projekt themenspezifische Cluster für eine gezieltere Vernetzung der Projekte und die Ermöglichung von Synergieeffekten aufgebaut. Der nachfolgende Bericht beschreibt die Projektergebnisse im fachlichen Cluster Pflanzenschutz. Im X-KIT Cluster Pflanzenschutz sind fünf Projekte vertreten, die im Folgenden vorgestellt werden: Durch die Integration von artspezifischen Eigenschaften in Managemententscheidungen wird im Projekt BETTER-WEEDS der Einsatz von Herbiziden auf kleinsten Teilflächen zwischen Nutzen und Schaden von Unkräutern abgewogen. Forschung zur Unkrauterkennung im Anwendungsbereich Vertical Farming wird im Projekt KIdetect betrieben. Der PhenoTruck® ist ein mobiles Labor zur Erkennung von Schaderregern im Wein- und Obstbau, welches die Stärken von molekularen Verfahren, hyperspektrale Labormessungen und multispektrale Drohnenflüge direkt vor Ort am Feldrand kombiniert. Die Projekte WeedAI und Weed-AI-Seek entwickeln beide Lösungen zur Unkrauterkennung via Drohne. Das Ziel von WeedAI ist dabei die Evaluation von Unkrautbekämpfungsmaßnahmen anhand von Drohnenbildern mit dem Ziel Prüfnormen für Geräte zur Unkrautbekämpfung zu entwickeln. Dahingegen werden Applikationskarten für das Herbizidmanagement in der Präzisionslandwirtschaft im Projekt Weed-AI-Seek erstellt.

description: A microphone array is designed, built and used for analyzing the radiation of a single test instrument, an oud. Two analysis algorithms are implemented for this purpose, radiation mapping and delay and sum beamforming. Radiation mapping is used to determine the spatial radiation intensity of the instrument, while beamforming is used to map the source locations on the instrument’s soundboard. In this report, the mechanical design history of the microphone array is presented, as well as a detailed overview of the finalized design. The development and testing of the beamforming algorithm is then summarized, followed by a detailed description and analysis of the final algorithm. Radiation maps for the 5 largest vibration modes of the oud are produced and presented, as well as beamforming results for various frequencies. Some investigations are subsequently made into the validity of the results, and recommendations are given for their further verification and improvement. It is concluded that beamforming can consistently and successfully locate single monopole sound sources. While the results of beamforming for the more complicated sources found in the oud soundboard remain far from conclusive, their consistency and intuitive placement suggest that they hold some valid results. In order to fully support this hypothesis, it is concluded that modal analysis should be performed on the oud, comparing the results with those produced by beamforming.

description: The molecules released by cells are a fingerprint of their current state. Methods that measure them with high spatial and temporal resolution would provide valuable insights into cell physiology and diseases. Here, we develop a nanosensor coating that transforms standard cell culture materials/dishes into "Smart Slides" capable of optically monitoring biochemical efflux from cells. For this purpose, we use single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) that are fluorescent in the beneficial near-infrared (NIR, 850-1700 nm) window. They are chemically tailored to detect the neurotransmitter dopamine by a change in fluorescence intensity. These nanosensors are spin-coated on glass substrates and we show that such sensor layers can be sterilized by UV light and can be stored in dry condition or buffer for at least 6 weeks. We also identify the optimal sensor density to maximize sensitivity. Finally, we use these materials to image dopamine release from neuronal cells cultivated on top in the presence of various psychotropic substances, which represents a system to test pharmaceuticals for neurological or neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, Smart Slides are a powerful tool to monitor cellular processes in cell culture systems.
