description: The most of the people have their account on social networks (e.g. Facebook, Vkontakte) where they express their attitude to different situations and events. Facebook provides only the positive mark as a like button and share. However, it is important to know the position of a certain user on posts even though the opinion is negative. Positive, negative and neutral attitude can be extracted from the comments of users. Overall information about positive, negative and neutral opinion can bring the understanding of how people react in a position. Moreover, it is important to know how attitude is changing during the time period. The contribution of the paper is a new method based on sentiment text analysis for detection and prediction negative and positive patterns for Facebook comments which combines (i) real-time sentiment text analysis for pattern discovery and (ii) batch data processing for creating opinion forecasting algorithm. To perform forecast we propose two-steps algorithm where: (i) patterns are clustered using unsupervised clustering techniques and (ii) trend prediction is performed based on finding the nearest pattern from the certain cluster. Case studies show the efficiency and accuracy (Avg. MAE = 0.008) of the proposed method and its practical applicability. Also, we discovered three types of users attitude patterns and described them.

description: The problem of statistical inference for regression coefficients in a high-dimensional single-index model is considered. Under elliptical symmetry, the single index model can be reformulated as a proxy linear model whose regression parameter is identifiable. We construct estimates of the regression coefficients of interest that are similar to the debiased lasso estimates in the standard linear model and exhibit similar properties: root-n-consistency and asymptotic normality. The procedure completely bypasses the estimation of the unknown link function, which can be extremely challenging depending on the underlying structure of the problem. Furthermore, under Gaussianity, we propose more efficient estimates of the coefficients by expanding the link function in the Hermite polynomial basis. Finally, we illustrate our approach via carefully designed simulation experiments.

description: We calculate the iron line profiles from accretion discs with spiral velocity structures around Schwarzschild black holes.

This study is motivated by recent work showing that spiral density waves can result from MHD instabilities even in non-self-gravitating discs, and by improved spectral resolution of forthcoming X-ray missions.

Kinematics of elliptical galaxies with a diffuse dust component - III. A Monte Carlo approach to include the effects of scattering

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper is the third one in a series, intended to investigate how the observed kinematics of elliptical galaxies are affected by dust attenuation. In Paper I and Paper II, we investigated the effects of dust absorption; here we extend our modelling in order to include the effects of scattering. We describe how kinematical information can be combined with the radiative transfer equation, and present a Monte Carlo code that can handle kinematical information in an elegant way. Compared to the case where only absorption is taken into account, we find that dust attenuation considerably affects the observed kinematics when scattering is included. For the central lines of sight, dust can either decrease or increase the central observed velocity dispersion. The most important effect of dust attenuation, however, is found at large projected radii. The kinematics at these lines of sight are strongly affected by photons scattered into these lines of sight, which were emitted by high-velocity stars in the central regions of the galaxy. These photons bias the LOSVDs towards high line-of-sight velocities, and significantly increase the observed velocity dispersion and LOSVD shape parameters. These effects are similar to the expected kinematical signature of a dark matter halo, such that dust attenuation may form an alternative explanation for the usual stellar kinematical evidence for dark matter halos around elliptical galaxies. We apply our results to discuss several other topics in galactic dynamics, where we feel dust attenuation should be taken into account. In particular, we argue that the kinematics observed at various wavelengths can help to constrain the spatial distribution of dust in elliptical galaxies.

description: The thermal conductivity kappa of the layered s-wave superconductor NbSe_2 was measured down to T_c/100 throughout the vortex state. With increasing field, we identify two regimes: one with localized states at fields very near H_c1 and one with highly delocalized quasiparticle excitations at higher fields. The two associated length scales are naturally explained as multi-band superconductivity, with distinct small and large superconducting gaps on different sheets of the Fermi surface. This behavior is compared to that of the multi-band superconductor MgB_2 and the conventional superconductor V_3Si.

description: Excerpts from the report Summary: This report is a summary of the investigation and evaluation of several suggested techniques and methods for measurement of the length of fibers in a sample of cotton. The study is part of a broad, continuing program of research to find or develop more efficient and more economical methods end practices in marketing cotton and other major farm products. In this study, a shorter technique for measuring the length of the fibers in a sample of cotton, called the truncated array technique, was compared with three other methods, including the customarily used Suter-Webb array method. The truncated array technique was found to provide results which are more valuable in several respects than the other methods studied, and to save about 15 percent of the time required for the usual Suter-Webb procedure. The truncated array technique is a variation of the widely used Suter-Webb array method and uses the same equipment. The various techniques and methods studied included the "Short" Suter-Webb array method, the modified array technique, the use of modal length as a length designation value, and the truncated array technique with "cutoff" points of 5/8 inch, 1/2 inch, 3/8 inch, and 1/4 inch.
Statistical analysis of C and S Main Belt Asteroids

description: In this paper we compare the observable properties of 962 numbered MBAs (Main Belt Asteroids) of Tholen/SMASSII C and S class, with diameter in the range 1-500 km, not belonging to families or binary systems. Above 20 km, the diameters distributions of C and S are similar while under 20 km there is a clear observative bias in favour of small S asteroids which prevents a direct comparison. There is a significant correlation between rotation frequency and diameter both for C and S: if the diameter decreases the rotation frequency tends to increase. There is also a significant correlation between the lightcurve amplitude and the diameter for both samples: if the diameter decreases the lightcurve amplitude tends to increase. For larger diameter the C amplitude tends to be systematically higher than S amplitude of about 0.1 magnitude, but the difference is not very significant. Between 48 and 200 km, the C asteroids have a rotation frequency distribution compatible with a Maxwellian. On the other side, for S asteroids, the compatibility with the Maxwellian concernes diameters greater than 33 km. Considering the rotational properties and the lightcurve amplitude it appears that there are no substantial differences between the samples of C and S asteroids taken into account, and this indicates a good homogeneity in the processes of collisional evolution.

description: Explanations of how organisms might adapt to urban environments have mostly focused on divergent natural selection and adaptive plasticity. However, differential habitat choice has been suggested as an alternative. Here, we test for habitat choice in enhancing crypsis in ground-perching grasshoppers colonizing an urbanized environment, composed of a mosaic of four distinctly coloured substrates (asphalt roads and adjacent pavements). Additionally, we determine its relative importance compared to present-day natural selection and phenotypic plasticity. We found that grasshoppers are very mobile, but nevertheless approximately match the colour of their local substrate. By manipulating grasshopper colour, we confirm that grasshoppers increase the usage of those urban substrates that resemble their own colours. This selective movement actively improves crypsis. Colour divergence between grasshoppers on different substrates is not or hardly due to present-day natural selection, because observed mortality rates are too low to counteract random substrate use. Additional experiments also show negligible contributions from plasticity in colour. Our results confirm that matching habitat choice can be an important driver of adaptation to urban environments. In general, studies should more fully incorporate that individuals are not only selective targets (i.e. selected on by the environment), but also selective agents (i.e. selecting their own environments).

description: Lenticular galaxies (S0s) are believed to form through 2 main pathways: mergers or fading of a spiral progenitor. It is not clear yet what is the dominant scenario, nor what are the parameters and physical conditions that favor one path instead of the other. In a pilot study with 21 galaxies (Coccato et al. 2020), we suggest that environment (field of cluster) plays a role in the formation of S0s: S0s in the field are most likely formed through mergers, whereas S0s in clusters are most likely formed through processes that involve the rapid consumption of gas (e.g. starvation, ram pressure stripping) from a spiral progenitor. In this talk I will review the latest findings on this topic and present the results of a larger survey aimed at determining the role of environment in the formation of S0s.

description: Israelian et al. (1999) showed that the stellar companion of the black-hole binary Nova Sco is polluted with material ejected in the supernova that accompanied the formation of the black-hole primary. Here we systematically investigate the implications of these observations for the black-hole formation process. Using a variety of supernova models, including both standard as well as hypernova models (for different helium-star masses, explosion energies, and explosion geometries) and a simple model for the evolution of the binary and the pollution of the secondary, we show that most of the observed abundance anomalies can be explained for a large range of model parameters (apart from the abundance of Ti). The best models are obtained for He star masses of 10 to 16 Msun, where spherical hypernova models are generally favoured over standard supernova ones. Aspherical hypernova models also produce acceptable fits, provided there is extensive lateral mixing. All models require substantial fallback and that the fallback material either reached the orbit of the secondary or was mixed efficiently with material that escaped. The black hole therefore formed in a two-step process, where the initial mass of the collapsed remnant was increased substantially by matter that fell back after the initial collapse. This may help to explain the high observed space velocity of Nova Sco either because of a neutrino-induced kick (if a neutron star was formed first) or by asymmetric mass ejection in an asymmetric supernova explosion.

Scalable and Efficient Distributed Frameworks for Influence Maximization

Influence Maximization

description: Influence maximization is a fundamental operation among graph problems that involve simulating a stochastic diffusion process on real-world networks. Given a graph G(V, E), the objective is to identify a small set of key influential “seeds”—i.e., a fixed-size set of k nodes, which when influenced is likely to lead to the maximum number of nodes in the network getting influenced. The problem has numerous applications including (but not limited to) viral marketing in social networks, epidemic control in contact networks, and in finding influential proteins in molecular networks. Despite its importance, application of influence maximization at scale continues to pose significant challenges. The problem is NP-hard, but there exist efficient polynomial time approximations. The intuition behind the two main schools of such approaches can be distilled to either trying to answer the question “who influences whom?” or “who gets influenced by whom?”. The current state-of-the-art distributed algorithms available for these two paradigms of approximating influence maximization, namely greedy hill climbing and reverse influence sampling, involves direct parallel adaptations of sequential greedy approaches. Scaling these algorithms remains a daunting task due to the complexities associated with steps involving stochastic sampling and large-scale aggregations.
description: This dissertation first highlights the uniqueness and dynamism of the influence maximization workload by contrasting the performance gains (or lack thereof) from a popular preprocessing step against those achieved in classical prototypical graph workloads. With this motivation in mind, the dissertation introduces two novel frameworks for approximating influence maximization. The first is aimed at optimizing the greedy hill climbing approach while the second targets the paradigm of reverse influence sampling. Both frameworks are built with the theme of concurrently processing sub-units of the overall workload and leveraging the property of submodularity that persists in the subsets representing these workloads. Experimental results show that these methods are able to increase problem size reach, reduce time to solution, maintain quality, and extend the scaling boundary compared to their state-of-the-art counterparts.
description: We believe that the contributions from this disseration will be helpful in making influence maximization more accessible as an application promoting its adoption in large scale scientific pipelines. Additionally, parts of the work described in the disseration are also generic enough to be extended to a broader base of application settings that use submodular optimization. This has the potential to motivate and inspire research into such applications which have been hitherto impractical due to their high computational costs and/or memory footprint.

description: The quantitative morphological classification of distant galaxies is essential to the understanding of the evolution of galaxies over the history of the Universe. This paper presents Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 F606W and F814W photometric structural parameters for 7450 galaxies in the ``Groth Strip.'' These parameters are based on a two-dimensional bulge+disk surface brightness model and were obtained using an automated reduction and analysis pipeline described in detail here. A first set of fits was performed separately in each bandpass, and a second set of fits was performed simultaneously on both bandpasses. The information produced by these two types of fits can be used to explore different science goals. Systematic and random fitting errors in all structural parameters as well as bulge and disk colors are carefully characterized through extensive sets of simulations. The results of these simulations are given in catalogs similar to the real science catalogs so that both real and simulated measurements can be sampled according to the same selection criteria to show biases and errors in the science data subset of interest. The effects of asymmetric structures on the recovered bulge+disk fitting parameters are also explored through simulations. The full multidimensional photometric survey selection function of the Groth Strip is also computed. This selection function, coupled to bias maps from simulations, provides a complete and objective reproduction of the observational limits, and these limits can be applied to theoretical predictions from galaxy evolution models for direct comparisons with the data.

description: It is thought that supernova-driven outflows are important in the regulation of mass growth in star forming galaxies, suppressing the conversion of gas into stars. This presentation will show preliminary results of our study of the VALES (Valparaiso ALMA Line Emission Survey) sample, composed of 15 star-forming galaxies, using VLT/MUSE integral field spectroscopy data. I will present ionized gas excitation and kinematics information obtained with our data and how they relate with outflow parameters, illustrating the impact they have in the galaxies. I will also present results obtained with SED fitting using CIGALE code to multiwavelength broad and narrow band fluxes obtained from the GAMA survey. Our main goal is to characterize the weak outflows we observe in this sample, and retrieve crucial evolutionary parameters such as the eta, which relates the mass outflow rate with the star formation rate, in order to compare and fine-tune theoretical models.

ecosystem conceptual model

description: Anthropogenic and natural disturbances can cause degradation of ecosystems, reducing their capacity to sustain biodiversity and provide ecosystem services. Understanding the extent of ecosystem degradation is critical for estimating risks to ecosystems, yet there are few existing methods to map degradation at the ecosystem scale and none using freely available satellite data for mangrove ecosystems. In this study, we developed a quantitative classification model of mangrove ecosystem degradation using freely available earth observation data. Crucially, a conceptual model of mangrove ecosystem degradation was established to identify suitable remote sensing variables that support the quantitative classification model, bridging the gap between satellite-derived variables and ecosystem degradation with explicit ecological links. We applied our degradation model to two case-studies, the mangroves of Rakhine State, Myanmar, which are severely threatened by anthropogenic disturbances, and Shark River within the Everglades National Park, USA, which is periodically disturbed by severe tropical storms. Our model suggested that 40% (597 km2) of the extent of mangroves in Rakhine showed evidence of degradation. In the Everglades, the model suggested that the extent of degraded mangrove forest increased from 5.1% to 97.4% following the Category 4 Hurricane Irma in 2017. Quantitative accuracy assessments indicated the model achieved overall accuracies of 77.6% and 79.1% for the Rakhine and the Everglades, respectively. We highlight that using an ecological conceptual model as the basis for building quantitative classification models to estimate the extent of ecosystem degradation ensures the ecological relevance of the classification models. Our developed method enables researchers to move beyond only mapping ecosystem distribution to condition and degradation as well. These results can help support ecosystem risk assessments, natural capital accounting, and restoration planning and provide quantitative estimates of ecosystem degradation for new global biodiversity targets.

description: A theoretical study of linear wave scattering by time-periodic spatially localized excitations (discrete breathers (DB)) is presented. We obtain that the wave propagation is strongly influenced by a local coupling between an open and closed channels generated by the DB. A peculiar effect of total reflection occurs due to a Fano resonance when a localized state originating from closed channels resonates with the open channel. For the discrete nonlinear Schroedinger chain we provide with an analytical result for the frequency dependence of the transmission coefficient, including the possibility of resonant reflection. We extend the analysis to chains of weakly coupled anharmonic oscillators and discuss the relevance of the effect for electronic transport spectroscopy of mesoscopic systems.

Fragmentation of Filamentary Cloud Permeated by Perpendicular Magnetic Field II. Dependence on the Initial Density Profile

description: We examine the linear stability of a filamentary cloud permeated by a perpendicular magnetic field. The initial magnetic field is assumed to be uniform and perpendicular to the cloud axis. The model cloud is assumed to have a Plummer-like density profile and to be supported against the self-gravity by turbulence. The effects of turbulence are taken into account by enhancing the effective pressure of a low density gas. We derive the effective pressure as a function of the density from the condition of the hydrostatic balance. It is shown that the model cloud is more unstable against radial collapse, when the radial density slope is shallower. When the magnetic field is mildly strong, the radial collapse is suppressed. If the displacement vanishes in the region very far from the cloud axis, the model cloud is stabilized completely by a mildly strong magnetic field. If rearrangement of the magnetic flux tubes is permitted, the model cloud is unstable even when the magnetic field is extremely strong. The stability depends on the outer boundary condition as in case of the isothermal cloud. The growth rate of the rearrangement mode is smaller when the radial density slope is shallower.

description: In this paper, some new algorithms for estimating the biasing parameters of the ridge, Liu and two-parameter estimators are introduced with the help of genetic algorithm (GA). The proposed algorithms are based on minimizing some statistical measures such as mean square error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and mean absolute prediction error (MAPE). At the same time, the new algorithms allow one to keep the condition number and variance inflation factors to be less than or equal to ten by means of the GA. A numerical example is presented to show the utility of the new algorithms. In addition, an extensive Monte Carlo experiment is conducted. The numerical findings prove that the proposed algorithms enable to eliminate the problem of multicollinearity and minimize the MSE, MAE and MAPE.
Interactive Martingale Tests for the Global Null

description: Global null testing is a classical problem going back about a century to Fisher's and Stouffer's combination tests. In this work, we present simple martingale analogs of these classical tests, which are applicable in two distinct settings: (a) the online setting in which there is a possibly infinite sequence of $p$-values, and (b) the batch setting, where one uses prior knowledge to preorder the hypotheses. Through theory and simulations, we demonstrate that our martingale variants have higher power than their classical counterparts even when the preordering is only weakly informative. Finally, using a recent idea of "masking" $p$-values, we develop a novel interactive test for the global null that can take advantage of covariates and repeated user guidance to create a data-adaptive ordering that achieves higher detection power against structured alternatives.

description: It is well known that the sum of negative (positive) eigenvalues of some finite Hermitian matrix $V$ is concave (convex) with respect to $V$. Using the theory of the spectral shift function we generalize this property to self-adjoint operators on a separable Hilbert space with an arbitrary spectrum. More precisely, we prove that the spectral shift function integrated with respect to the spectral parameter from $-\infty$ to $λ$ (from $λ$ to $+\infty$) is concave (convex) with respect to trace class perturbations. The case of relative trace class perturbations is also considered.

description: Excerpts from the report Introduction: Labor and power are two major operating costs of cottonseed oil mills. Earlier studies have indicated wide variation among mills in the costs of these services, which accounted for about one-third of the total processing cost in 1950-51. The study on which this report is based is part of a broad program of research to help business firms handling farm products to operate more efficiently. The purpose of the study was to make available to mill operators information about the industry which would be useful to them in their efforts to achieve savings in man-hours and power. In line with this purpose, a sample was selected for analysis from the 286 cottonseed oil mills in the United States listed as active during the 1953-54 season. The sample was designed to include mills using all types of oil-extraction processes (hydraulic, screw-press, combination hydraulic and screw-press, and solvent-extraction), of varying sizes, and located in the 3 major cotton-producing areas.
Self-Regulation of Star Formation at Kpc Scales

description: We present the relation between the star formation rate density, Ssfr, and the hydrostatic mid-plane pressure, Phyd, for 4260 star-forming regions of kpc size located in 96 galaxies included in the EDGE-CALIFA survey. We find that these two parameters are tightly correlated, exhibiting a smaller scatter and a stronger correlation in comparison to other star-forming scaling relation. A power-law, with a slightly sub-linear exponent, is a good representation of this relation. Our analysis suggests that the primary channel of self regulation of the Ssfr at kpc scales comes from momentum flux injection to the interstellar medium from supernovae explosions. However, other channels of pressure in disk galaxies may also play a significant role in shaping the Ssfr at local scales. Our results also suggest that Phyd can be consider as the main driver of the star formation at kpc scales, rather than individual components of the baryonic mass.

description: Abstract: The management of wavelength routed optical mesh networks is complex with many potential light path routes and numerous physical layer impairments to transmission performance. This complexity can be reduced by applying the ideas of abstraction from computer science where different equipment is described in the same basic terms. The noise-to-signal ratio can be used as a metric to describe the quality of transmission performance of a signal propagated through a network element and accumulates additively through a sequence of such elements allowing the estimation of end-to-end performance. This study aims to explore the robustness of the noise-to-signal ratio metric in an installed fibre infrastructure. We show that the abstracted noise-to-signal ratio is independent of the observers and their location. We confirm that the abstracted noise-to-signal ratio can reasonably predict the performance of light-paths subsequently set in our network. Having a robust network element abstraction that can be incorporated into routeing engines allows the network management controller to make decisions on the most effective way to use the network resources in terms of the routeing and data coding format.
