description: Emergent in the field of head mounted display design is a desire to leverage the limitations of the human visual system to reduce the computation, communication, and display workload in power and form-factor constrained systems. Fundamental to this reduced workload is the ability to match display resolution to the acuity of the human visual system, along with a resulting need to follow the gaze of the eye as it moves, a process referred to as foveation. A display that moves its content along with the eye may be called a Foveated Display, though this term is also commonly used to describe displays with non-uniform resolution that attempt to mimic human visual acuity. We therefore recommend a definition for the term Foveated Display that accepts both of these interpretations. Furthermore, we include a simplified model for human visual Acuity Distribution Functions (ADFs) at various levels of visual acuity, across wide fields of view and propose comparison of this ADF with the Resolution Distribution Function of a foveated display for evaluation of its resolution at a particular gaze direction. We also provide a taxonomy to allow the field to meaningfully compare and contrast various aspects of foveated displays in a display and optical technology-agnostic manner.

description: This paper introduces new technique for efficient calculation of different Shannon information measures which operates Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs). We offer an algorithm of BDD reordering which demonstrates the improvement of the obtaining outcomes over the existing reordering approaches. The technique and the reordering algorithm have been implemented, and the results on circuits' benchmarks are analyzed. We point out that the results are quite promising, the algorithm is very fast, and it is easy to implement. Finally, we show that our approach to BDD reordering can yield to reduction in the power dissipation for the circuits derived from BDDs.

description: In this article, we attempt to show how there is a strong modeling, although imperceptible by the no-sphere of structuring the educational contents of teaching mathematical content in a mold that emptiness their Morpho-dynamic content. This mold would be dictated by the blackboard : very similar notions of those developed to the student’s addresses in the textbooks are the vectors of this content. ICTs are making these concepts quite patent, a very long time ago, taken in consideration by these manuals. Any proven lack of these concepts among the objects of learning as manuals and monographs promotes in schools is an argument for the truthfulness of this modeling and the character of it. These objects would be designed according to the possibilities offered by the blackboard relating to the activation of variable commands between the hands of the professor. The animation and configuration of points are not a part of these opportunities.About this animation, the lack of these objects in the fundamental dichotomy 'trajectory / chart' concerning curves, including among these curves, those are straight lines, that engineering students not associate with the modeling of rectilinear movements to the graph of the numerical function of the real variable, or even concerning the linear function, to the right.

description: Hybrid quantum information processing combines the advantages of discrete and continues variable protocols by realizing protocols consisting of photon counting and homodyne measurements. However, the mode structure of pulsed sources and the properties of the detection schemes often require the use optical filters in order to combine both detection methods in a common experiment. This limits the efficiency and the overall achievable squeezing of the experiment. In our work, we use photon subtraction to implement the distillation of pulsed squeezed states originating from a genuinely spatially and temporally single-mode parametric down-conversion source in non-linear waveguides. Due to the distillation, we witness an improvement of $0.17~\mathrm{dB}$ from an initial squeezing value of $-1.648 \pm 0.002~\mathrm{dB}$, while achieving a purity of $0.58$, and confirm the non-Gaussianity of the distilled state via the higher-order cumulants. With this, we demonstrate the source's suitability for scalable hybrid quantum network applications with pulsed quantum light.

description: The roughness of the subduction interface is thought to influence seismogenic behavior in subduction zones, but a detailed understanding of how such roughness affects the state of stress along the subduction megathrust is still debated. Here, we use seismotectonic analogue models to investigate the effect of subduction interface roughness on seismicity in subduction zones. We compared analogue earthquake source parameters and slip distributions for two roughness endmembers. Models characterized by a very rough interface have lower interface frictional strength and lower interseismic coupling than models with a smooth interface. Overall, ruptures in the rough models have smaller rupture area, duration and mean displacement. Individual slip distributions indicate a segmentation of the subduction interface by the rough geometry. We propose that flexure of the overriding plate is one of the mechanisms that contribute to the heterogeneous strength distribution, responsible for the observed seismic behavior.

description: This paper presents a variational and multisymplectic formulation of both compressible and incompressible models of continuum mechanics on general Riemannian manifolds. A general formalism is developed for non-relativistic first-order multisymplectic field theories with constraints, such as the incompressibility constraint. The results obtained in this paper set the stage for multisymplectic reduction and for the further development of Veselov-type multisymplectic discretizations and numerical algorithms. The latter will be the subject of a companion paper.

title: Protective Effects of Caffeine and Coffee Constituents in Inflammatory Models of Depression

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Caffeine, Therapeutic uses
subject: Coffee, Therapeutic uses
subject: Depression

description: Caffeine is the most widely used compound that exerts a pharmacological effect on the central nervous system and is found most predominantly in coffee. It has been well established that coffee has a beneficial effect on numerous disease states including depression. A number of prospective and cohort studies have shown the benefit of coffee in preventing episodes of depressive symptoms. Studies indicate that the amount of coffee consumed is important with studies showing that moderate intake of caffeinated coffee may be beneficial in decreasing the risk of developing symptoms of clinical depression. It has however been shown that high consumption of coffee increases the risk of depression and suicide. It appears that caffeine in combination with other constituents of coffee may be required to show the antidepressant activity. To date very few studies have been undertaken to evaluate components of coffee for their antidepressant effects and no studies have been undertaken assessing these compounds in combination with caffeine and their subsequent effects on symptoms of depression. Over the last 50 years there have been countless proposed hypotheses of depression many of which are flawed including the well-accepted monoamine theory of depression. As a result of the shortcomings identified in this theory, numerous newer theories of depression have been proposed in recent times.

description: The teaching of modern physics inevitably faces didactic and epistemological obstacles. Many studies have highlighted the misconceptions of learners in this type of education. In the case of the teaching of quantum mechanics in which what are interested here, the causes of the difficulties are essentially the mathematical formalism on the one hand and the impregnation of the classical concepts on the other one. The goal of the study we conducted was to identify the epistemological referents of students in third academic year by the analysis of their representations of quantum concepts. The results showed conceptions relevant to a realistic and empirical epistemology.

The calculation is simple enough to use in an undergraduate course on fluid dynamics or nonlinear dynamics. It is also an attractive starting point for a nonlinear analysis.

A generalized Gross-Pitaevskii model for intersubband polariton lasing

Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)

description: We develop a generalized Gross-Pitaevskii approach to the driven-dissipative dynamics of intersubband polaritons in patterned planar microcavities where the cavity mode is strongly coupled to an intersubband transition in doped quantum wells. Substantial differences with respect to the case of interband excitonic polaritons are highlighted, in particular the non-Markovian features of the radiative decay. The accuracy of the method is validated on the linear reflection properties of the cavity, that quantitatively reproduce experimental observations. The theoretical framework is then applied in the nonlinear regime to study optical parametric oscillation processes for intersubband polaritons. Our findings open interesting perspectives in view of novel coherent laser sources operating in the mid and far infrared.

An investigation of the attitudes of infant and Primary School teachers regarding their pupils’ participation rights

Publisher: name: Educational Journal of the University of Patras UNESCO Chair
Year: 2015

description: The Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989) separates the rights of the child into categories (the rights to survive and development, protection and participation). However, participation rights have been overshadowed to a large degree by the other categories of rights of the child since they were not included in previous international treaties. The children’s participation rights include particular articles which aim to strengthen active participation, freedom of expression of opinion as the child seeks, receives and imparts views and ideas, the right to a private life, the freedom of conscience, thought and religion, the rights to a cultural life, and to a name, and nationality. Gradually, in the 1990s, the child becomes a political and social entity and can take part in social, political and school machinations, and even decision making process, especially on issues that concern her directly. This article presents a small-scale quantitative survey review which examines the points of view and practices of 101 infant and primary school teachers in the regions of Egio and Patras in Greece. The results lead us to the conclusion that the participants displayed positive views and practices which promoted the children’s participation rights. As a consequence of the aforementioned, we conclude that the participants in the research had positive attitudes towards their pupils’ participation rights and believed that the curricula reinforce their political rights within the space of the school. In addition, proposals for further investigation of the topic by future researchers are presented.

NOVEL NANOTECHNOLOGY FOR EFFICIENT PRODUCTION OF BINARY CLATHRATE HYDRATES OF HYDROGEN AND OTHER COMPOUNDS

name: Arca, Simone

name: Savelli, Gianfranco
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The efficient production of hydrogen hydrates is a major goal in the attempt to exploit those materials as an alternative means for storing hydrogen. Up to now, a few processes have been reported in the literature which yield less than 1 wt% of hydrogen stored into clathrate hydrate or semi-clathrate forms. One main obstacle to the entrapment of sensible amounts of hydrogen (i.e., up to 4 wt% ) into a clathrate matrix appears to be of a kinetic origin, in that the mass transfer of hydrogen gas into clathrate structures is drastically limited by the (relatively) macroscopic scale of the gas-liquid or gas-ice interfaces involved. In this communication, we present a novel process for an enhanced production of binary hydrates of hydrogen and other hydrate-forming gases, which is characterized by the use of nanotechnology for reducing the size of hydrate particles down to a few nanometers. This drastic reduction of particle size, down to three orders of magnitude smaller than that obtainable by macroscopic methods, allows to reduce the kinetic hindrance to hydrate formation. This process has a huge potential for increasing the amount of hydrogen stored, as it has provided ca. 1 wt% of hydrogen, with THF as a co-former. The present process also allows to use several non-water soluble coformers; first reports of hydrogen/cyclopentane and hydrogen/tetrahydrothiophene hydrates are presented.

Essays on the use of probabilistic machine learning for estimating customer preferences with limited information

description: In this thesis, I explore in two essays how to augment thin historical purchase data with other sources of information using Bayesian and probabilistic machine learning frameworks to better infer customers' preferences and their future behavior. In the first essay, I posit that firms can better manage recently-acquired customers by using the information from acquisition to inform future demand preferences for those customers. I develop a probabilistic machine learning model based on Deep Exponential Families to relate multiple acquisition characteristics with individual level demand parameters, and I show that the model is able to capture flexibly non-linear relationships between acquisition behaviors and demand parameters. I estimate the model using data from a retail context and show that firms can better identify which new customers are the most valuable. In the second essay, I explore how to combine the information collected through the customer journey—search queries, clicks and purchases; both within-journeys and across journeys—to infer the customer’s preferences and likelihood of buying, in settings in which there is thin purchase history and where preferences might change from one purchase journey to another. I propose a non-parametric Bayesian model that combines these different sources of information and accounts for what I call context heterogeneity, which are journey-specific preferences that depend on the context of the specific journey. I apply the model in the context of airline ticket purchases using data from one of the largest travel search websites and show that the model is able to accurately infer preferences and predict choice in an environment characterized by very thin historical data. I find strong context heterogeneity across journeys, reinforcing the idea that treating all journeys as stemming from the same set of preferences may lead to erroneous inferences.

We give a variational characterization of the bifurcating branch $λ$ as a function of the amplitude of the solution. As an application we show how it can be used to obtain simple approximate closed formulae for the period of large amplitude oscillations.

description: The magnetic properties of a material are determined by a subtle balance between the various interactions at play, a fact that makes the design of new magnets a daunting task. High-throughput electronic structure theory may help to explore the vast chemical space available and offers a design tool to the experimental synthesis. This method efficiently predicts the elementary magnetic properties of a compound and its thermodynamical stability, but it is blind to information concerning the magnetic critical temperature. Here we introduce a range of machine-learning models to predict the Curie temperature, $T_\mathrm{C}$, of ferromagnets. The models are constructed by using experimental data for about 2,500 known magnets and consider the chemical composition of a compound as the only feature determining $T_\mathrm{C}$. Thus, we are able to establish a one-to-one relation between the chemical composition and the critical temperature. We show that the best model can predict $T_\mathrm{C}$'s with an accuracy of about 50K. Most importantly our model is able to extrapolate the predictions to regions of the chemical space, where only a little fraction of the data was considered for training. This is demonstrated by tracing the $T_\mathrm{C}$ of binary intermetallic alloys along their composition space and for the Al-Co-Fe ternary system.

description: In this paper, we present numerical methods suitable for solving convex quadratic Fractional Differential Equation (FDE) constrained optimization problems, with box constraints on the state and/or control variables. We develop an Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) framework, which uses preconditioned Krylov subspace solvers for the resulting sub-problems. The latter allows us to tackle a range of Partial Differential Equation (PDE) optimization problems with box constraints, posed on space-time domains, that were previously out of the reach of state-of-the-art preconditioners. In particular, by making use of the powerful Generalized Locally Toeplitz (GLT) sequences theory, we show that any existing GLT structure present in the problem matrices is preserved by ADMM, and we propose some preconditioning methodologies that could be used within the solver, to demonstrate the generality of the approach. Focusing on convex quadratic programs with time-dependent 2-dimensional FDE constraints, we derive multilevel circulant preconditioners, which may be embedded within Krylov subspace methods, for solving the ADMM sub-problems. Discretized versions of FDEs involve large dense linear systems. In order to overcome this difficulty, we design a recursive linear algebra, which is based on the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). We manage to keep the storage requirements linear, with respect to the grid size $N$, while ensuring an order $N \log N$ computational complexity per iteration of the Krylov solver. We implement the proposed method, and demonstrate its scalability, generality, and efficiency, through a series of experiments over different setups of the FDE optimization problem.

A model of an ion-proton radio pulsar polar cap
Creators: name: Jones, P B
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A number of previous papers have developed an ion-proton theory of the pulsar polar cap. The basic equations summarizing this are given here with the results of sets of model step-to-step calculations of pulse-precursor profiles. The nature of step-to-step profile variations is described by calculated phase-resolved modulation indices. The conditions under which nulls are present in step sequences are analysed. The change of mean null length with neutron-star surface temperature shows a pathway ending in emission similar to the Rotating Radio Transients. The model accommodates exceptional pulsars, the millisecond pulsars (in principle), and the 8.5 s period PSR J2144-3933. These are considered separately and their emission mechanism discussed in some detail.

A didactical approach of large-scale electricity generation systems at the elementary school level
Creators: name: SISSAMPERI, NIKI

Publisher: name: Educational Journal of the University of Patras UNESCO Chair
Year: 2015
Subjects: Large-scale electricity generation systems, energy chain model, elementary education

description: This work refers to the organising principles and content of a didactical intervention (addresses to children aged 11-12) related to the concept of energy on large- scale electricity generation systems (thermoelectric power plants, hydroelectric power plants, wind farms, photovoltaic farms). These organising principles refer to: (a) the structure and the content of school knowledge of the teaching subject where we distinguish for levels of approach: the phenomenological, the technological, the scientific and the environmental level, (b)the constructivist approach of teaching and learning science which is based on the assumptions that children in the age of 11-12 years using the linear causal reasoning and the systemic thinking will be able to construct a semi-quantitative energy model that is proper to the description and the explanation of large-scale electricity generation systems, and (c)the pedagogical context based on the practice of problem situations and the socio-cognitive approach of teaching. There will also be presented the didactical aims and some elements of the content of didactical intervention which derive from the basic organising principles above mentioned.

subject: Legality of war
subject: Morality of war

description: The thesis focuses upon what might be termed 'war's moral problem.' The problem relates to an aporetic relation between a transcendental position of morality and the phenomenon of war. In general terms the problem refers to the situation where, on the one hand, a 'particular conception of morality' condemns war, yet, on the other hand, morality is forced to legitimate particular wars in the attempt to overcome the condition of war. This can be understood as a jurisprudential question that comes to Anglo-European jurisprudence through a long tradition(s) of natural law.

description:  This report presents a new and provisional estimate of the maximum depth of rupture on New Zealand’s active faults (“New Zealand Fault-Rupture Depth Model v1.0”) based on a combination of two independent models. The first model uses regional seismicity distribution from a relocated earthquake catalogue to calculate the 90% seismicity cut-off depth (D90) representing the seismogenic depth limit H. This is multiplied by an overshoot factor representing dynamic propagation of rupture into the conditional stability zone and accounting for the difference between regional seismicity depths and frictional properties of a mature fault zone, to arrive at rupture depth Df. The second model uses surface heat-flow and rock type to compute thermal stability limits for seismogenic faults. These limits are also multiplied by an overshoot factor to arrive at a thermally-based maximum rupture depth Df. Both models have depth cut-offs at the Moho and/or subducting slabs. Results indicate maximum rupture depths between 8 km (Taupō Volcanic Zone) to > 30 km (e.g. southwest North Island), strongly correlated with regional thermal gradients. Preliminary estimates of uncertainties for each model are also discussed. Depths from the two models show broad agreement for most of the North Island and some differences in the South Island. A combined model using weighting based on relative uncertainties is derived and validated using constraints from hypocentre and slip model depths from recent well-instrumented earthquakes. (auth)

subject: human-wildlife conflict

description: When two wongari (dingoes) killed a young boy on K’gari (formerly Fraser Island) in April 2001, the management of dingoes on the island was dramatically thrust into public attention. Since this tragedy, and despite millions of dollars being spent on dingo management, 126 dingoes destroyed, a recognised, best-practice interpretive and visitor education program, along with myriad other approaches all aimed at minimising the threat dingoes pose to human safety, serious incidents, although rare, remain stubbornly persistent. At the same time, the K’gari dingo population is recognised as exemplary of pre-European colonisation and of great conservation importance. It is also a relatively small, geographically isolated population, at greater risk of extinction compared to mainland populations. It is unclear how or to what extent conflict in the form of negative interactions and resultant management approaches such as culling and destruction for risk management purposes impacts the persistence of the population. The research presented here explores these juxtaposed issues using a variety of methodologies drawn from different disciplines to obtain knowledge that helps to better explain incident dynamics, dingo intent during serious incidents and factors influencing long-term population survival. It also explores practical, non-lethal approaches to managing interaction behaviour on the part of dingoes and encouraging coexistence. [...]

description: Student science teacher attrition under VODL has been a critical concern in the field of education for many years. Student teacher attrition is another term used for student teacher turnover, which are changes in student teachers’ status from Semester to Semester. Student Teacher turnover may include Student teachers leaving the course, or Student teachers leaving the university. This study sought to find out the major reasons for student teachers’ attrition under the VODL mode of delivery at BUSE through a survey gathering the perspectives of the students who have dropped out of this mode of teaching and learning. The collected data is analysed through the IBM SPSS v. 19. Situational factors are indicated in this study as the major reasons for student attrition under VODL. There is no correlation between the cited reasons for attrition to gender, age or program of study. It is recommended that any intervention mechanisms should put lecturers in the forefront as they are perceived by the former students as the most significant others.
