description: Magnetic excitations in an array of (VO)_2P_2O_7 single crystals have been measured using inelastic neutron scattering. Until now, (VO)_2P_2O_7 has been thought of as a two-leg antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin ladder with chains running in the a-direction. The present results show unequivocally that (VO)_2P_2O_7 is best described as an alternating spin-chain directed along the crystallographic b-direction. In addition to the expected magnon with magnetic zone-center energy gap Δ= 3.1 meV, a second excitation is observed at an energy just below 2Δ. The higher mode may be a triplet two-magnon bound state.

Hyperbolic enhancement of a quantum battery

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A quantum system which can store energy, and from which one can extract useful work, is known as a quantum battery. Such a device raises interesting issues surrounding how quantum physics can provide certain advantages in the charging, energy storage or discharging of the quantum battery as compared to their classical equivalents. However, the pernicious effect of dissipation degrades the performance of any realistic battery. Here we show how one can circumvent this problem of energy loss by proposing a quantum battery model which benefits from quantum squeezing. Namely, charging the battery quadratically with a short temporal pulse induces a hyperbolic enhancement in the stored energy, such that the dissipation present becomes essentially negligible in comparison. Furthermore, we show that when the driving is strong enough the useful work which can be extracted from the quantum battery, that is the ergotropy, is exactly equal to the stored energy. These impressive properties imply a highly efficient quantum energetic device with abundant amounts of ergotropy. Our theoretical results suggest a possible route to realizing high-performance quantum batteries, which could be realized in a variety of platforms exploiting quantum continuous variables.

Similes and Metaphors in the Agnihotra of Jaiminīya Brāhmaṇa
Creators: name: Das Gupta, Mau
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: The discussion on Agnihotra in Jaiminīya Brāhmaṇa is strewn with numerous similes and metaphors, quite comparable to those used in other Brāhmaṇas during similar discussion. According to the Vedas, asceticism and sacrifice can give the gods and the sages the extraordinary ability to see the secret and enigmatic realities like sacred texts, rituals, and identities. The ordinary mortals cannot see that (cf. TS V.3.5.4, KS VIII.3; MS I.8.1; III.6.3; ŚB IV.2.1.26; AB I.6). The magic identifications are the central objects of the “pre-scientific science” of the Vedic rituals (Oldenberg 1919: 110ff.). In the Prāṇāgnihotra sacrifice, the concrete ritual acts are replaced by corresponding psychic acts in the mind of the sacrificer (Bodewitz 1973: 211ff). In the journey from the actual Agnihotra to the mental Prāṇāgnihotra, similes and metaphors play an important part to symbolize the offering, the deities, the sacrificer and the fire. Comparisons formed with particles like yathā or iva often occur in the Brāhmaṇas that point to the use of similes and metaphors as tools to build the ritual symbols and as keys to know their secret identity. This, according to the Brāhmaṇas, enables the knower to overpower the entities concerned. The present paper attempts to estimate the role of similes and metaphors in Jaiminīya Brāhmaṇa in symbolizing the actual Agnihotra ritual to the mental sacrifice called “Prāṇāgnihotra.” It also tries to explore the innovative similes and metaphors in Jaiminīya Brāhmaṇa that eventually were forgotten in the clichéd lists of upamā and rūpaka of Classical Sanskrit literature.

description: A proof labelling scheme for a graph class $\mathcal{C}$ is an assignment of certificates to the vertices of any graph in the class $\mathcal{C}$, such that upon reading its certificate and the certificates of its neighbors, every vertex from a graph $G\in \mathcal{C}$ accepts the instance, while if $G\not\in \mathcal{C}$, for every possible assignment of certificates, at least one vertex rejects the instance. It was proved recently that for any fixed surface $Σ$, the class of graphs embeddable in $Σ$ has a proof labelling scheme in which each vertex of an $n$-vertex graph receives a certificate of at most $O(\log n)$ bits. The proof is quite long and intricate and heavily relies on an earlier result for planar graphs. Here we give a very short proof for any surface. The main idea is to encode a rotation system locally, together with a spanning tree supporting the local computation of the genus via Euler's formula.

Soft tree building in a binary hierarchical classifier framework
Creators: name: Gupta, Ankur P.
Publisher: name: The University of Texas at Austin
Year: 2004
Subjects: Binary Hierarchical Classifier
Dataset description

description: Classification problems in remote sensing are often difficult because of high dimensionality of the input space, large number of class labels, overlapping class distributions, and limited quantity of training data. Various modular learning techniques have been developed that decompose the classification problem into simpler sub-problems in either the input space or the output space or both. The Binary Hierarchical Classifier (BHC) is a hierarchical modular learning framework that decomposes a ̀C' class problem in the output space. The BHC has the capability of automatically revealing the inherent taxonomy of classes according to the class separation determined by the linear discriminant. In this thesis, a new approach called the Binary Hierarchical Classifier-Soft Tree Build (BHC-STB) has been developed that provides the capability for each class to softly associate with more than one node. The algorithm seeks to partition the given set of classes into two overlapping sets in such a way that classes that are similar to each other, but dissimilar from the classes in the other set are assigned to one of the two sets, while classes that are similar to the members of both these groups (or dissimilar from the members of both the groups) are assigned to both sets with some probability. The process is recursively repeated until each set contains only one class. The soft tree build framework enhances the BHC framework for problems with mixed classes that share characteristics with both the child nodes or distinct classes that do not associate easily with one or the other child node. The proposed method shows improvement in classification accuracy for difficult problems with mixed classes and also reveals the enhanced domain knowledge compared to the BHC.

description: Background and purpose — The theoretical mechanical advantages of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing (MoM-HR) compared with conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) have been questioned. Studies including measures of patient-reported function, physical activity, or health-related quality of life have been sparse. We compared patient-reported outcomes in MoM-HR patients with a matched group of patients with conventional THA at 7 years post-surgery. Patients and methods — Patients and patient data were retrieved from the Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register. The case group, consisting of 363 patients with MoM-HR, was matched 1:1 with a control group, consisting of patients with a conventional THA. Patients were sent a postal patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) questionnaire including the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), EQ-5D, and VAS pain. We used multivariable linear regression analyses to investigate the influence of prosthesis type. Results — 569 patients (78%) returned the questionnaire with complete responses (299 MoM-HRs and 270 conventional THAs). MoM-HR was associated with better scores in HOOS function of daily living (4 percentage units) and HOOS function in sport and recreation (8 percentage units) subscales. Type of prosthesis did not influence HOOS quality of life, HOOS pain, HOOS symptoms, EQ-5D index, hip pain, or satisfaction as measured with visual analog scales. Interpretation — At mean 7 years post-surgery, patients with hip resurfacing had somewhat better self-reported hip function than patients with conventional THA. The largest difference between groups was seen in the presumed most demanding subscale, i.e., function in sport and recreation.

description: Accurate 6-DoF pose estimation of surgical instruments during minimally invasive surgeries can substantially improve treatment strategies and eventual surgical outcome. Existing deep learning methods have achieved accurate results, but they require custom approaches for each object and laborious setup and training environments often stretching to extensive simulations, whilst lacking real-time computation. We propose a general-purpose approach of data acquisition for 6-DoF pose estimation tasks in X-ray systems, a novel and general purpose YOLOv5-6D pose architecture for accurate and fast object pose estimation and a complete method for surgical screw pose estimation under acquisition geometry consideration from a monocular cone-beam X-ray image. The proposed YOLOv5-6D pose model achieves competitive results on public benchmarks whilst being considerably faster at 42 FPS on GPU. In addition, the method generalizes across varying X-ray acquisition geometry and semantic image complexity to enable accurate pose estimation over different domains. Finally, the proposed approach is tested for bone-screw pose estimation for computer-aided guidance during spine surgeries. The model achieves a 92.41% by the 0.1 ADD-S metric, demonstrating a promising approach for enhancing surgical precision and patient outcomes. The code for YOLOv5-6D is publicly available at https://github.com/cviviers/YOLOv5-6D-Pose

description: Multi-energy systems can provide a constant level of service to end-use energy demands, while deriving delivered energy from a variety of primary/secondary energy sources. This fuel-switching capability can be used to reduce operating expenses, reduce environmental impacts, improve flexibility to accommodate renewable energy, and improve reliability. This paper presents four frameworks for incentivizing energy hub equipment investments for low-carbon operation targets. These frameworks vary in the measures taken to achieve low-carbon operation (explicit constraint vs. carbon pricing) and in the relationship between the hub builder and operator (cooperative vs. uncoordinated). The underlying energy hub model upon which these frameworks are built is an enhanced greenfield model, introducing 'energy buses' to reduce dimensionality. A case study is conducted for a campus being designed in Beijing, and results from each framework are compared to illustrate their relative costs. When the operator cannot be trusted to cooperate in controlling emissions, the system must be 'overbuilt' with more expensive equipment to ensure emissions target are met. A taxation-based approach increases overall costs at moderate emissions targets, but this effect decreases at aggressive targets. This paper also compares the cost of less efficient institutional frameworks with the most efficient approach, i.e. cooperation between builder and operator with constraints on emissions.
title: Migrant workers, precarity and resistance in Scotland: A study of the barriers to labour mobilisation experienced by migrant workers in precarious occupations
Creators: name: Theodoropoulos, Panagiotis
Publisher: name: Unversity of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: In an economy designed to attract and exploit migrant labour, migrants in the UK are at the forefront of the precarious condition. Despite this, examples of migrant unionisation or other forms of collective labour action to improve conditions are comparatively rare. This study aims to research the structural and subjective barriers to the mobilisation of migrant workers in precarious occupations in Scotland. A qualitative approach using interviews with migrants and a period of covert participant observation in various precarious workplaces in Glasgow was employed. It is argued that, alongside the plethora of intersecting factors that structure migrant workers’ experience and impede their capacities for mobilisation, the most significant barrier is to be found in the almost absolute absence of unions and other oppositional movements from migrants’ lives. The study concludes by positing community embeddedness as a crucial component of any process that aims to organise with, and empower, migrant workers. Embeddedness emerges as an inescapable prerequisite for unions and social movements to counter the multiple structural and subjective effects of precarity.

description: Thylamys (Thylamys) elegans   (Waterhouse, 1839)
TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: BMNH 53.8.29.18, the lectotype (designated by Thomas, 1888a), consists of the skin and skull of an adult male collected at Valparaíso (33.03° S, 71.63° W), Valparaíso region, Chile.
 SYNONYMS: coquimbensis Tate, 1931; soricinus Philippi, 1894 (but see Remarks).
 DISTRIBUTION: Thylamys elegans is endemic to Chile, where recent sequencing studies suggest that it ranges from about 21° S (in Tarapacá) to almost 36° S (in Maule), and from near sea level to about 1700 m (Palma et al., 2014; Boric-Bargetto et al., 2016). However, there are historical records of this species from as far south as Angol (37.80° S, 72.72° W) in the Araucanía region based on specimens seen by Tate (1933) and Greer (1965).
 REMARKS: See Giarla et al. (2010) for an emended description and morphological comparisons of Thylamys elegans with congeneric taxa. Despite much taxonomic attention, this species remains problematic in several respects, some of which were discussed by Boric-Bargetto et al. (2016) and Giarla and Voss (2020b). A recent, geographically comprehensive analysis of mtDNA sequence data (Boric-Bargetto et al., 2021) suggests that the southernmost populations currently recognized as T. elegans might be a distinct species, for which T. soricinus could be the appropriate binomen if the diagnostic pelage traits mentioned by Pine (1979) and Giarla et al. (2010) were confirmed by examination of sequenced specimens. In that event, and if Philippi’s holotype —last seen by Osgood (1943) —cannot be found, then a neotype should be designated to fix the application of this name.
 Phylogenetic analyses of multilocus sequence datasets have consistently recovered Thylamys elegans in a clade that also includes T. pallidior and T. tatei (see Giarla et al., 2010; Díaz-Nieto et al., 2016a; Amador and Giannini, 2016).

description: Previous research has examined emotion regulation (ER) and trauma in the context of psychopathology, yet little research has examined ER in posttraumatic growth (PTG), the experience of positive psychological change following a traumatic event. ER typically involves decreasing negative affect by engaging (e.g. reappraisal) or disengaging (e.g. distraction) with emotional content. To investigate how ER may support PTG, participants who experienced a traumatic event in the past 6 months completed a PTG questionnaire and an ER choice task in which they down regulated their negative emotion in response to negative pictures of varying intensity by choosing to distract or reappraise. Latent growth curve analyses revealed that an increase in reappraisal choice from low to high subjective stimulus intensity predicted higher PTG, suggesting that individuals who chose reappraisal more as intensity increased reported higher PTG. Findings suggest that reappraisal of negative stimuli following a traumatic event may be a key component of PTG.

Spontaneous strain in quasi-two-dimensional Janus CdSe nanoplatelets and its microscopic mechanisms

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Spontaneous strain and spontaneous folding of thin nanoplatelets are known phenomena whose microscopic mechanisms are still debating. In this work, first-principles calculations are used to study the mechanical stresses that arise in Janus CdSe nanoplatelets and result in their spontaneous strain. Calculations reveal the existence of three microscopic mechanisms of this phenomenon. Two bulk mechanisms are associated with the inverse piezoelectric effect in an electric field created by the difference in electronegativities of ligands and by the depolarizing field resulting from the difference in the potential jumps in electrical double layers on the surfaces of nanoplatelets. These mechanisms account for 5-25% of the observed effect. The third mechanism is associated with the surface strain of nanoplatelets by bridging bonds, and its influence is predominant. It is shown that the latter mechanism cause spontaneous folding of thin CdSe nanoplatelets and, depending on the values of surface stresses and lateral orientation of nanoplatelets, can result in formation of their experimentally observed structures such as scrolls, spirals, and twisted ribbons.

description: A Josephson junction embedded in a dissipative circuit can be externally driven to induce nonlinear dynamics of its phase. Classically, under sufficiently strong driving and weak damping, dynamic multi-stability emerges associated with dynamical bifurcations so that the often used modeling as a Duffing oscillator, which can exhibit bi-stability at the most, is insufficient. The present work analyzes in this regime corresponding quantum properties by mapping the problem onto a highly-nonlinear quasi-energy operator in a rotating frame. This allows us to identify in detail parameter regions where simplifications such as the Duffing approximation are valid, to explore classical-quantum correspondences, and to study how quantum fluctuations impact the effective junction parameters as well as the dynamics around higher amplitude classical fixed points.

description: The Śrīḍākārṇavamahāyoginītantrarāja (abbreviated to Ḍākārṇava, “Ḍāka’s Ocean”) is one of the latest tantras among those belonging to the Buddhist Cakrasaṃvara/-śaṃvara tradition, composed in the eastern area of the Indian subcontinent around the 11th century. The 15th chapter of the Ḍākārṇava teaches a large-scale and elaborate maṇḍala of Heruka, consisting of 986 major deities. I have a plan to publish the first critical edition and English translation of the whole chapter. The present paper describes and analyzes the structure and meanings of that maṇḍala expounded in the Ḍākārṇava, chapter 15. The maṇḍala consists of four layers comprised of thirteen circles, that is, one lotus at the center and twelve concentric circles. Through this structure the maṇḍala represents several Buddhist concepts such as the Fourfold Body and the Twelve Levels. The maṇḍala is formed by deities from the major Vajrayāna or Buddhist Tantric traditions (Cakrasaṃvara, Guhyasamāja, Hevajra, and Catuṣpīṭha traditions) and deities who are deifications or anthropomorphized transformations of the Six Realms of Reincarnation and the Three Realms of Existence, namely, the whole Buddhist cosmos. Furthermore, all deities constituting the maṇḍala are equated with Jinas in the auspicious eon.

description: We estimate the number of templates, computational power, and storage required for a one-step matched filtering search for gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries. These estimates should serve as benchmarks for the evaluation of more sophisticated strategies such as hierarchical searches. We use waveform templates based on the second post-Newtonian approximation for binaries composed of nonspinning compact bodies in circular orbits. We present estimates for six noise curves: LIGO (three configurations), VIRGO, GEO600, and TAMA. To search for binaries with components more massive than 0.2M_o while losing no more than 10% of events due to coarseness of template spacing, initial LIGO will require about 1*10^11 flops (floating point operations per second) for data analysis to keep up with data acquisition. This is several times higher than estimated in previous work by Owen, in part because of the improved family of templates and in part because we use more realistic (higher) sampling rates. Enhanced LIGO, GEO600, and TAMA will require computational power similar to initial LIGO. Advanced LIGO will require 8*10^11 flops, and VIRGO will require 5*10^12 flops. If the templates are stored rather than generated as needed, storage requirements range from 1.5*10^11 real numbers for TAMA to 6*10^14 for VIRGO. We also sketch and discuss an algorithm for placing the templates in the parameter space.

description: Thylamys (Thylamys) pallidior (Thomas, 1902)
TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: BMNH 2.2.2.116, the holotype by original designation, consists of the skin and skull of an adult male collected at Challapata (18.90° S, 66.78° W; 3800 m), Oruro department, Bolivia.
 SYNONYMS: fenestrae Marelli, 1932.
 DISTRIBUTION: Thylamys pallidior occurs along the arid Pacific coast of southern Peru and northern Chile (from ca. 16° S to 20° S); in the Altiplano of Peru, Bolivia, and Chile (to ca. 3800 m); and in arid landscapes on the eastern side of the Andes as far south as Chubut province, Argentina (ca. 46° S). No published map illustrates the entire geographic distribution of this widespread species, but Giarla et al. (2010: fig. 5) and Palma et al. (2014: fig. 1) mapped the localities of their sequenced specimens, and Formoso et al. (2011: fig. 1) mapped collection localities in Patagonia.
 REMARKS: See Giarla et al. (2010) for an emended morphological description, measurements, and comparisons with congeneric taxa. The nominal taxon coquimbensis Tate, 1931, which Giarla et al. (2010) synonymized with Thylamys pallidior based on morphological similarity, was returned to the synonymy of T. elegans by Giarla and Voss (2020b) based on phylogenetic analysis of a cytochrome b sequence obtained from the holotype.

description: In this paper, we study how communication influences suspicion. The experiment uses a sender-receiver setup with a low probability of misaligned incentives for senders and receivers. We focus on the impact of open communication on the receivers’ suspicion as measured by the size of the deviation from the senders’ recommendation before and after the communication. Overall, communication substantially reduces suspicion, but some receivers become more suspicious during the communication. We disentangle these effects using machine learning methods to analyze the chat logs.

title: Affective justification: how emotional experience can epistemically justify evaluative belief
Creators: name: Harrison, Eilidh
Publisher: name: Unversity of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: The idea that emotional experience is capable of lending immediate prima facie epistemic justification to evaluative belief has been amassing significant philosophical support in recent years. The proposal that it is my anger, say, that justifies my belief that I’ve been wronged putatively provides us with an intuitive and naturalised explanation as to how we receive immediate and defeasible justification for our evaluative beliefs. With many notable advocates in the literature, this justificatory thesis of emotion is fast becoming a central facet in how we conceive of the emotions’ epistemic role with respect to our everyday lives. Interestingly, however, despite the fact that the justificatory thesis is fundamentally an epistemological proposal, comparatively little of the philosophical literature has been dedicated to exploring the epistemological avenues through which emotions might be capable of delivering such an epistemic yield. Accordingly, the central purpose of this thesis is to provide a novel and thorough analysis of how emotional experience might be capable of playing this justificatory role. Here, I present and evaluate three broad models of emotional justification: emotional dogmatism, emotional reliabilism, and agent-based views. Emotional dogmatist views, I argue, fail in virtue of being vulnerable to over-generalisation worries and problematic commitments to the contents of emotional awareness. Emotional reliabilism, while possessing the resources to avoid some objections, is vulnerable to worrisome clairvoyance-style challenges which establish the insufficiency of emotional reliability for epistemic justification. Finally, having learned our lessons from the shortcomings of these views, I argue that an agent-based theory grounded in the development of learned emotional competences provides the most plausible account of how emotional experience can epistemically justify evaluative belief. This discussion, I believe, will both illuminate contemporary discussions of the justificatory thesis of emotion found in the literature, and provide novel insight into the epistemic capacities of the emotions.

description: Ein nachhaltiges Forschungsdatenmanagement (FDM) ist Teil guter wissenschaftlicher Praxis. Es ermöglicht transparente Forschungsergebnisse und deren Wiederverwendung und hilft, Doppelarbeit und unnötigen Ressourcenverbrauch zu vermeiden. Gleichzeitig erfordert FDM selbst Ressourcen, weshalb eine sorgfältige Abwägung zwischen Transparenz, Nachnutzung und Aufwand nötig ist. Diese Empfehlungen unterstützen Forschende bei der Erstellung von Forschungsdatenmanagementplänen, um den ökologischen Fußabdruck von Daten, Hardware und Software zu reduzieren. Sie bieten konkrete Ansätze zu Formaten, Interoperabilität, Versionierung, Metadaten, Nutzungsszenarien, Speicherplatz und Langzeitarchivierung. Ziel ist es, ressourcen-schonende Lösungen zu fördern, ohne die Grundsätze des FDM zu gefährden.

 

Das Wichtigste in Kürze

Grünes Forschungsdatenmanagement in fünf Kernpunkten:

   1. Nachnutzung maximieren: Datenformate und Software sollten so gewählt werden, dass Daten leicht wiederverwendet werden können.

   2. Speicherplatz effizient nutzen: Versionierung, Komprimierung und gezielte Auswahl relevanter Daten verhindern unnötigen Ressourcenverbrauch.

   3. Metadaten optimieren: Einheitliche Standards und durchdachte Metadaten erleichtern Auffindbarkeit und Wiederverwendung.

   4. Veröffentlichung nachhaltig planen: Daten sollten möglichst in offenen Formaten und mit freien Lizenzen veröffentlicht werden.

   5. Langzeitarchivierung bewusst steuern: Nur essenzielle Daten langfristig speichern und bestehende Infrastrukturen nutzen.

Fresh look at the effects of gravitational tidal forces on a freely-falling quantum particle

description: We take a closer and new look at the effects of tidal forces on the free fall of a quantum particle inside a spherically symmetric gravitational field. We derive the corresponding Schrödinger equation for the particle by starting from the fully relativistic Klein-Gordon equation in order (i) to briefly discuss the issue of the equivalence principle and (ii) to be able to compare the relativistic terms in the equation to the tidal-force terms. To the second order of the nonrelativistic approximation, the resulting Schrödinger equation is that of a simple harmonic oscillator in the horizontal direction and that of an inverted harmonic oscillator in the vertical direction. Two methods are used for solving the equation in the vertical direction. The first method is based on a fixed boundary condition, and yields a discrete-energy spectrum with a wavefunction that is asymptotic to that of a particle in a linear gravitational field. The second method is based on time-varying boundary conditions and yields a quantized-energy spectrum that is decaying in time. Moving on to a freely-falling reference frame, we derive the corresponding time-dependent energy spectrum. The effects of tidal forces yield an expectation value for the Hamiltonian and a relative change in time of a wavepacket's width that are mass-independent. The equivalence principle, which we understand here as the empirical equivalence between gravitation and inertia, is discussed based on these various results. For completeness, we briefly discuss the consequences expected to be obtained for a Bose-Einstein condensate or a superfluid in free fall using the nonlinear Gross-Pitaevskii equation.

description: Magnetic excitations have been investigated in the spin dimer material VODPO_4 \cdot 1/2 D_2O using inelastic neutron scattering. A dispersionless magnetic mode was observed at an energy of 7.81(4) meV. The wavevector dependence of the scattering intensityfrom this mode is consistent with the excitation of isolated V^{4+} spin dimers with a V-V separation of 4.43(7) Å. This result is unexpected since the V-V pair previously thought to constitute themagnetic dimer has a separation of 3.09 Å. We identify an alternative V-V pair as the likely magnetic dimer, which involves superexchange pathways through a covalently bonded PO_4 group. This surprising result casts doubt on the interpretation of (VO)_2P_2O_7 as a spin ladder.

description: Existing graph neural networks (GNNs) largely rely on node embeddings, which represent a node as a vector by its identity, type, or content. However, graphs with unattributed nodes widely exist in real-world applications (e.g., anonymized social networks). Previous GNNs either assign random labels to nodes (which introduces artefacts to the GNN) or assign one embedding to all nodes (which fails to explicitly distinguish one node from another). Further, when these GNNs are applied to unattributed node classification problems, they have an undesired equivariance property, which are fundamentally unable to address the data with multiple possible outputs. In this paper, we analyze the limitation of existing approaches to node classification problems. Inspired by our analysis, we propose a generalized equivariance property and a Preferential Labeling technique that satisfies the desired property asymptotically. Experimental results show that we achieve high performance in several unattributed node classification tasks.
