description: The Yang--Mills gradient flow and its extension to the fermion field provide a very general method to obtain renormalized observables in gauge theory. The method is applicable also with non-perturbative regularization such as lattice. The gradient flow thus offers useful probes to study non-perturbative dynamics of gauge theory. In this work, aiming at possible simplification in perturbative calculations associated with the gradient flow, a modification of the gauge-fixed version of the flow equation, which preserves gauge covariance under the background gauge transformation, is proposed. This formulation allows for example a very quick one-loop calculation of the small flow time expansion of a composite operator that is relevant to the construction of a lattice energy--momentum tensor. Some details of the calculation, which have not been given elsewhere, are presented.

description: In this paper, we focus on joint regression and classification for Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis and propose a new feature selection method by embedding the relational information inherent in the observations into a sparse multi-task learning framework. Specifically, the relational information includes three kinds of relationships (such as feature-feature relation, response-response relation, and sample-sample relation), for preserving three kinds of the similarity, such as for the features, the response variables, and the samples, respectively. To conduct feature selection, we first formulate the objective function by imposing these three relational characteristics along with an ℓ2,1-norm regularization term, and further propose a computationally efficient algorithm to optimize the proposed objective function. With the reduced data, we train two support vector regression models to predict the clinical scores of ADAS-Cog and MMSE, respectively, and also a support vector classification model to determine the clinical label. We conducted extensive experiments on the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Our experimental results showed the efficacy of the proposed method in enhancing the performances of both clinical score prediction and disease status identification, compared to the state-of-the-art methods.

description: This conversation explores the big questions that are re-defining how scholars approach the editing of Shakespeare’s works in our historical moment, from who gets to edit Shakespeare to how they choose to represent the Shakespearean text to their readers. Shakespeare has traditionally been edited by white, male scholars trained in prestigious academic institutions in the Anglo-world. What happens when women and BIPOC scholars, or scholars whose first language is not English, get to edit Shakespeare? And what happens when editors approach the task of re-editing Shakespeare for a more diverse readership? By using examples drawn from Shakespeare’s Richard III, this conversation shows how differently this history play can be edited and how differently it can be made to mean for new generations of readers, students, and theatre-goers.

description: This bibliography is a work in progress and grew out of a need to understand composition and music creation at a global level rather than just through a Eurocentric and North American centric lens of composition and music production.
Discussions, pedagogy and curricula, and programming of compositions can be greatly enriched by these traditions which tacitly include diverse composers, musicians, instruments, and audiences and communities. Also, we can’t fully appreciate how Western Art Music (WAM) and Anglo-American, or Western Pop Music (WPM) ecosystems exclude diverse composers and musics without understanding systemic issues caused by centuries of colonialism and slavery
This version of the bibliography is split into three sections with an introduction:Primary Composition ResourcesSelected Courses, Workshops, SeminarsSelected References and Commentary
The Primary Composition Resources is self-explanatory and will focus on textbooks, case studies, and orchestration guides. The Selected Courses, Workshops, Seminars will focus on actual applied contexts and related shorter term workshops and residencies. These are becoming more numerous as we get into a virtual presentation world. The Selected References and Commentaries will highlight articles, reviews (of e.g. textbooks), and much of my commentary about issues of global composition traditions that I’ve posted and published over the years.

Deep ensemble learning of sparse regression models for brain disease diagnosis

description: Recent studies on brain imaging analysis witnessed the core roles of machine learning techniques in computer-assisted intervention for brain disease diagnosis. Of various machine-learning techniques, sparse regression models have proved their effectiveness in handling high-dimensional data but with a small number of training samples, especially in medical problems. In the meantime, deep learning methods have been making great successes by outperforming the state-of-the-art performances in various applications. In this paper, we propose a novel framework that combines the two conceptually different methods of sparse regression and deep learning for Alzheimer’s disease/mild cognitive impairment diagnosis and prognosis. Specifically, we first train multiple sparse regression models, each of which is trained with different values of a regularization control parameter. Thus, our multiple sparse regression models potentially select different feature subsets from the original feature set; thereby they have different powers to predict the response values, i.e., clinical label and clinical scores in our work. By regarding the response values from our sparse regression models as target-level representations, we then build a deep convolutional neural network for clinical decision making, which thus we call ‘ Deep Ensemble Sparse Regression Network.’ To our best knowledge, this is the first work that combines sparse regression models with deep neural network. In our experiments with the ADNI cohort, we validated the effectiveness of the proposed method by achieving the highest diagnostic accuracies in three classification tasks. We also rigorously analyzed our results and compared with the previous studies on the ADNI cohort in the literature.

description: AbstractAccurate segmentation of anatomical structures in medical images is important in recent imaging based studies. In the past years, multi-atlas patch-based label fusion methods have achieved a great success in medical image segmentation. In these methods, the appearance of each input image patch is first represented by an atlas patch dictionary (in the image domain), and then the latent label of the input image patch is predicted by applying the estimated representation coefficients to the corresponding anatomical labels of the atlas patches in the atlas label dictionary (in the label domain). However, due to the generally large gap between the patch appearance in the image domain and the patch structure in the label domain, the estimated (patch) representation coefficients from the image domain may not be optimal for the final label fusion, thus reducing the labeling accuracy. To address this issue, we propose a novel label fusion framework to seek for the suitable label fusion weights by progressively constructing a dynamic dictionary in a layer-by-layer manner, where the intermediate dictionaries act as a sequence of guidance to steer the transition of (patch) representation coefficients from the image domain to the label domain. Our proposed multi-layer label fusion framework is flexible enough to be applied to the existing labeling methods for improving their label fusion performance, i.e., by extending their single-layer static dictionary to the multi-layer dynamic dictionary. The experimental results show that our proposed progressive label fusion method achieves more accurate hippocampal segmentation results for the ADNI dataset, compared to the counterpart methods using only the single-layer static dictionary.

description: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is neoplasia with high cure rates. However, not all patients can be cured with the current treatment. Chemo-resistance of tumor cells is one factor involved in treatment failure. In addition to its pore-forming activity on lipid bilayer membranes, the toxin melittin from bee venom is an inhibitor of several cancer-related signaling pathways. Moreover, melittin analogs have been shown to inhibit the activity of ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters which are known to play important roles in the chemo-resistance of tumor cells. Therefore, we tested the toxicity of melittin for HL cell lines KM-H2 and L-428 and whether melittin can increase the chemo-sensitivity of cisplatin-resistant HL cells. We found high toxicity of melittin for KM-H2 and L-428 cells. In co-cultures with normal blood cells, melittin preferentially killed KM-H2 and L-428 cells. In addition, we observed increased cisplatin sensitivity of chemo-resistant L-428 cells after treatment with melittin. ABC transporter activity was not reduced after treatment with melittin. Our data suggest that melittin or melittin analogs might be promising agents for the future development of treatment strategies for HL patients with resistant disease.

description: In this factsheet, we analyse the percentage of people of colour in top editorial positions at a strategic sample of 100 major online and offline news outlets in five markets across four continents: Brazil, Germany, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Building off work started in 2020, we find in 2023 that only 23% of the 81 top editors across the 100 brands covered are people of colour. In every country, the percentage of people of colour in the general population remains higher than among top editors. There continues to be no simple relationship between the percentages of journalists of colour and top editors of colour. We find some evidence of increasing racial diversity among top news editors in South Africa and the United States – but it continues to be the case that there are few or no top editors of colour in our sample in three countries.

description: AbstractEffectively utilizing incomplete multi-modality data for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and its prodrome (i.e., mild cognitive impairment, MCI) remains an active area of research. Several multi-view learning methods have been recently developed for AD/MCI diagnosis by using incomplete multi-modality data, with each view corresponding to a specific modality or a combination of several modalities. However, existing methods usually ignore the underlying coherence among views, which may lead to sub-optimal learning performance. In this paper, we propose a view-aligned hypergraph learning (VAHL) method to explicitly model the coherence among views. Specifically, we first divide the original data into several views based on the availability of different modalities and then construct a hypergraph in each view space based on sparse representation. A view-aligned hypergraph classification (VAHC) model is then proposed, by using a view-aligned regularizer to capture coherence among views. We further assemble the class probability scores generated from VAHC, via a multi-view label fusion method for making a final classification decision. We evaluate our method on the baseline ADNI-1 database with 807 subjects and three modalities (i.e., MRI, PET, and CSF). Experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods that use incomplete multi-modality data for AD/MCI diagnosis.

description: PSR J1846-0258 is an object which straddles the boundary between magnetars and rotation powered pulsars. Though behaving for many years as a rotation-powered pulsar, in 2006, it exhibited distinctly magnetar-like behavior - emitting several short hard X-ray bursts, and a flux increase. Here we report on 7 years of post-outburst timing observations of PSR J1846-0258 using the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer and the Swift X-ray Telescope. We measure the braking index over the post-magnetar outburst period to be $n=2.19\pm0.03$. This represents a change of $Δn=-0.46\pm0.03$ or a 14.5$\;σ$ difference from the pre-outburst braking index of $n=2.65\pm0.01$, which itself was measured over a span of 6.5 yr. So large and long-lived a change to a pulsar braking index is unprecedented and poses a significant challenge to models of pulsar spin-down.

description: Automatic brain image labeling is highly demanded in the field of medical image analysis. Multiatlas-based approaches are widely used due to their simplicity and robustness in applications. Also, random forest technique is recognized as an efficient method for labeling, although there are several existing limitations. In this paper, the authors intend to address those limitations by proposing a novel framework based on the hierarchical learning of atlas forests.

description: In this digital age of news consumption, a news reader has the ability to react, express and share opinions with others in a highly interactive and fast manner. As a consequence, fake news has made its way into our daily life because of very limited capacity to verify news on the Internet by large companies as well as individuals. In this paper, we focus on solving two problems which are part of the fact-checking ecosystem that can help to automate fact-checking of claims in an ever increasing stream of content on social media. For the ﬁrst prob-lem, claim check-worthiness prediction, we explore the fusion of syntac-tic features and deep transformer Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) embeddings, to classify check-worthiness of a tweet, i.e. whether it includes a claim or not. We conduct a detailed feature analysis and present our best performing models for English and Arabic tweets. For the second problem, claim retrieval, we explore the pre-trained embeddings from a Siamese network transformer model (sentence-transformers) speciﬁcally trained for semantic textual similar-ity, and perform KD-search to retrieve veriﬁed claims with respect to a query tweet.

description: We formulate the deformation theory for instantons on nearly Kähler six-manifolds using spinors and Dirac operators. Using this framework we identify the space of deformations of an irreducible instanton with semisimple structure group with the kernel of an elliptic operator, and prove that abelian instantons are rigid. As an application, we show that the canonical connection on three of the four homogeneous nearly Kähler six-manifolds G/H is a rigid instanton with structure group H. In contrast, these connections admit large spaces of deformations when regarded as instantons on the tangent bundle with structure group SU(3).

description: Videos are a commonly-used type of content in learning during Web search. Many e-learning platforms provide quality content, but sometimes educational videos are long and cover many topics. Humans are good in extracting important sec-tions from videos, but it remains a significant challenge for computers. In this paper, we address the problem of assigning importance scores to video segments, that is how much information they contain with respect to the overall topic of an educational video. We present an annotation tool and a new dataset of annotated educational videos collected from popular online learning platforms. Moreover, we propose a multimodal neural architecture that utilizes state-of-the-art audio, visual and textual features. Our experiments investigate the impact of visual and temporal information, as well as the combination of multimodal features on importance prediction.

Using methods derived from conversation analysis (CA), it is found that bilingual repetition contributes to coherence locally through cohesion as well as contrast, unlike monolingual repetition, which has been described as primarily cohesive in nature. One distinctive use of bilingual repetition, for example, is to represent opposed alternatives or contrasting situations. The relationship between bilingual repetition and general theoretical concerns about linguistic and social meaning making and interpretation through repetition and variation in interaction is also considered

description: We compute conductivities of strongly-interacting and non-uniform charge densities dual to inhomogeneous anti-de Sitter--black hole spacetimes. Backreacting bulk scalars with periodic boundary profiles, we construct generalizations of Reissner-Nordström-AdS that interpolate between those used in two previous studies --- one that reports power-law scaling for the boundary optical conductivity and one that does not. We find no evidence for power-law scaling of the conductivity, thereby corroborating the previous negative result that gravitational crystals are insufficient to generate the power-law mid-infrared conductivity observed in cuprate superconductors.

description: In the context of the Semantic Web, various visualization methods and tools exist. However, suitable visualizations are highly de-pendent on individual use cases and targeted user groups. Therefore, existing solutions require modiﬁcations and adjustments to meet the de-mands of other use cases and user groups. In this demo, we present an approach for a uniﬁed framework addressing customizable visual rep-resentations of knowledge graphs. Our approach reﬁnes the commonly used steps in the visualization generation process (i.e., data access, map-ping to visual primitives, and rendering) for Semantic Web contexts. Separation of concerns for individual steps and a modular and customiz-able architecture build the foundation for a pipeline-based visualization framework. The framework enables the creation and selection of the right components for the right tasks, realizing a variety of use cases and visual representations in Semantic Web contexts.

description: In this Reuters Institute factsheet, we analyse the gender breakdown of top editors in a strategic sample of 240 major online and offline news outlets in 12 different markets across five continents. Building off work started in 2020, we find in 2023 that only 22% of the 180 top editors across the 240 brands covered are women. In 2022, this percentage was 21% across the 240 brands covered. In 11 out of 12 markets, the majority of top editors are men; no market in our sample has a majority of women top editors this year. We find weak positive correlations between the percentage of women working in journalism with the percentage of women in top editorial positions as well as between gender inequality in society and the percentage of women top editors. Findings indicate no clear overall trend towards greater gender equality in top editorial positions.

description: Open Educational Resources (OERs) are openly licensed educational materials that are widely used for learning. Nowadays, many online learning repositories provide millions of OERs. Therefore, it is exceedingly difficult for learners to find the most appropriate OER among these resources. Subsequently, the precise OER metadata is critical for providing high-quality services such as search and recommendation. Moreover, metadata facilitates the process of automatic OER quality control as the continuously increasing number of OERs makes manual quality control extremely difficult. This work uses the metadata of 8,887 OERs to perform an exploratory data analysis on OER metadata. Accordingly, this work proposes metadata-based scoring and prediction models to anticipate the quality of OERs. Based on the results, our analysis demonstrated that OER metadata and OER content qualities are closely related, as we could detect high-quality OERs with an accuracy of 94.6%. Our model was also evaluated on 884 educational videos from Youtube to show its applicability on other educational repositories.

description: The presented study examines various methods for phase averaging the naturally oscillating flowfield of a scaled-up fluidic oscillator. No external trigger is employed to control the oscillation of the flow. Mathematical and signal conditioning approaches for phase averaging the data are categorized and described. The results of these methods are evaluated for their accuracy in capturing the natural flowfield. The respective criteria are based on the minimum fluctuation in oscillation period length, the conservation of velocity amplitudes, and the number of snapshots per phase-averaging window. Although all methods produce reasonable qualitative results, only two methods are identified to provide the desired quantitative accuracy and suitability for the investigated flowfield. The first method is based on conditioning a time-resolved pressure signal from the feedback channels in the oscillator. An autocorrelation applied to the reference signal improves the period identification. The second method employs a mathematical approach by means of proper orthogonal decomposition. Because the conventional use of proper orthogonal decomposition reveals shortcomings in quantitative accuracy, it is modified by imposing an even distribution of snapshots per phase angle window. The results demonstrate the feasibility and improved accuracy of the modified proper orthogonal decomposition. Therefore, accurate phase averaging can be conducted without the need for a time-resolved reference signal.

description: Oleandra zapatana Lellinger, vel aff., Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash. 89(61): 719, f. 3. 1977.
 Range: —Western Colombia; Bolivia (BE, LP).
 Ecology: —Rare; epiphytic and on cliff faces along roadsides, in humid forests; 950 m.
 Notes: —We apply this name to two small, sterile collections (Fay & Fay 2761, MO, LPB; Tate 1152, NY) of a species bearing small reddish, catenate hairs that are partly lost with age. Oleandra zapatana differs from most closely related O. articulata in the densely pilose stipe apex and midrib abaxially, with hairs 0.5–2 mm long; the lamina abaxially, near the midrib, may also be sparsely pilose. While we doubt that the Bolivian specimens are conspecific with Colombian O. zapatana, the indument is similar; pending collection of better specimens, as well as a thorough taxonomic treatment of the genus Oleandra in the New World, we keep the Bolivian plant under this name.

description: Segmentation of brain magnetic resonance (MR) images into white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is crucial for brain structural measurement and disease diagnosis. Learning-based segmentation methods depend largely on the availability of good training ground truth. However, the commonly used 3T MR images are of insufficient image quality and often exhibit poor intensity contrast between WM, GM, and CSF. Therefore, they are not ideal for providing good ground truth label data for training learning-based methods. Recent advances in ultrahigh field 7T imaging make it possible to acquire images with excellent intensity contrast and signal-to-noise ratio.

description: For the research and development of new battery materials, achieving high reproducibility of the performance parameters in the laboratory test cells is of great importance. Therefore, in the present work, three typical small-format lithium-ion cells (coin cell, Swagelok cell and EL-CELL ECC-PAT-Core) were tested and compared with regard to the reproducibility of their performance parameters (discharge capacity, internal resistance and coulombic efficiency). A design of experiments (DOE) with the two factors separator type and anode–cathode ratio (N/P ratio) was carried out for all cells. For the quality features discharge capacity, internal resistance and coulombic efficiency, the coefficient of variation is used as a measure of reproducibility. The statistical evaluation shows that in 83% of all cases, higher reproducibility is achieved when the Freudenberg separator is used instead of the Celgard separator. In addition, higher reproducibility is achieved in 78% of all cases if the anode and cathode are the same size. A general statement about which test cell format has the highest reproducibility cannot be made. Rather, the format selection should be adapted to the requirements. The examined factors seem to have an influence on the reproducibility but are more insignificant than other still-unknown factors. Since the production of small-format test cells is a manual process, the competence of the assembler seems to prevail. In order to mitigate the influence of as many unknown variables as possible, assembly instructions are proposed for each cell type.
