description: A focus of the inter-subject correlation (ISC) analysis is to understand the correlation among individuals’ brain activities to identify the brain regions that respond similarly to the same real-life stimuli. We explore the benefit of using nonparametric smoothing in the ISC test and propose a nonparametric test procedure for testing the existence of the inter-subject correlation. More specifically, testing whether the covariance matrix among subjects is diagonal. Our proposed test is applicable under subject heteroscedasticity and temporal heteroscedasticity with no temporal dependence. We also propose another nonparametric test procedure to improve the power performance and extend it to the temporal dependent case. We establish the asymptotic normality of the three proposed test statistics under the null hypothesis and a series of local alternative hypotheses, we also study their detectable order under local alternatives. Numerical studies show that the proposed test procedures perform better than the commonly used methods in the ISC studies and cross-sectional dependence tests including the adjusted Lagrange multiplier test, Pesaran’s cross sectional dependence (CD) test, and the adjusted Pesaran’s CD test. Finally we apply our proposed test statistics to a real movie-watching fMRI data set to find the brain nodes of the participants which have no inter-subject correlation for a period of time when they are watching the same movie.

description: During the recent years the attention to the double skin facade (DSF) concept has greatly increased. Nevertheless, the application of the concept depends on whether a reliable model for simulation of the DSF performance will be developed or pointed out. This is, however, not possible to do, until the model is empirically validated and its’ limitations for the DSF modeling are identified. Correspondingly, the existence and availability of the experimental data is very essential.

Three sets of accurate empirical data for validation of DSF modeling with building simulation software were produced within the International Energy Agency (IEA) Task 34 Annex 43. This paper describes the full-scale outdoor experimental test facility ‘the Cube’, where the experiments were conducted, the experimental set-up and the measurements procedure for the data sets. The empirical data is composed for the key-functioning modes of a double skin facade: 1. External air curtain mode, it is the naturally ventilated DSF cavity with the top and bottom openings open to the outdoor; 2. Thermal insulation mode, when all of the DSF openings closed; 3. Preheating mode, with the bottom DSF openings open to the outdoor and top openings open to the indoor.

Available data sets consist of two groups of parameters, which were measured simultaneously. These are the parameters of boundary conditions and the parameters that reflect the DSF performance. The boundary conditions include the climate data, wind profile, outdoor concentration of carbon dioxide etc. Parameters of the DSF performance discussed in the paper are: the temperature gradients in the DSF cavity, mass flow rate in the naturally ventilated cavity, surface temperatures, etc.

description: Trust in automation has been mainly studied in the cognitive perspective, though some researchers have shown that trust is also influenced by emotion. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the relationships between emotions and trust. In this study, we explored the pattern of 19 anticipated emotions associated with two levels of trust (i.e., low vs. high levels of trust) elicited from two levels of autonomous vehicles (AVs) performance (i.e., failure and non-failure) from 105 participants from Amazon Mechanical Turk (AMT). Trust was assessed at three layers i.e., dispositional, initial learned, and situational trust. The study was designed to measure how emotions are affected with low and high levels of trust. Situational trust was significantly correlated with emotions that a high level of trust significantly improved participants' positive emotions, and vice versa. We also identified the underlying factors of emotions associated with situational trust. Our results offered important implications on anticipated emotions associated with trust in AVs.

description: In this work, we investigate the equilibrium configurations of massive white dwarfs (MWD) in the context of modified gravity, namely $f(R,L_m)$ gravity, where $R$ stands for the Ricci scalar and $L_m$ is the Lagrangian matter density. We focused on the specific case $f(R,L_m) = R/2 + L_m + σRL_m$, i.e., we have considered a non-minimal coupling between the gravity field and the matter field, with $σ$ being the coupling constant. For the first time, the theory is applied to white dwarfs, in particular to study massive white dwarfs, which is a topic of great interest in the last years. The equilibrium configurations predict maximum masses which are above the Chandrasekhar mass limit. The most important effect of the theory is to increase significantly the mass for stars with radius < 2000 km. We found that the theory can accommodate the super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs for different star compositions. Apart from this, the theory recovers the General Relativity results for stars with radii larger than 3000 km, independent of the value of $σ$.

Modeling a Naturally Ventilated Double Skin Façade with a Building Thermal Simulation program

description: The use of Double Skin Façade (DSF) has increased during the last decade. There are many reasons for this including e.g. aesthetics, sound insulation, improved indoor environment and energy savings. However, the influence on the indoor environment and energy consumption are very difficult to predict. This is manly due to the very transient and complex air flow in the naturally ventilated double skin façade cavity.

In this paper the modelling of the DSF using a thermal simulation program, BSim, is discussed. The simulations are based on the measured weather boundary conditions, and the simulation results are compared to the measurement results like energy consumption for cooling, air temperature, temperature gradient and mass flow rate in the DSF cavity, etc. Details about the measurements are reported in \Kalyanova et al. 2008\.

The thermal simulation program does not at the moment include a special model to simulate the DSF. However, the results show that it was possible to predict the energy flow, temperature distribution and airflow in the DSF. The good agreement between the measured and simulated results was unfortunately very sensitive to the model. This implies that without the possibility to calibrate the simulation model with measured data the risk of generating poor results is imminent. Therefore further work including both measurements and more detailed and robust simulation programs are necessary.

description: New applications of recycled materials from defibering cellulose used for thermal insulation in several reference low-energy and passive houses were subject  of one year monitoring  with analysis of hygrothermal properties for different spatial density of cellulose and different  hydrophobic treatment of fibres. Contemporary results from the monitoring and measurements of blowing and sprayed cellulose (tested in situ and in labs) used for thermal insulation in houses show that defibering and treated cellulose from waste selected paper originally produced in the Czech Republic is comparable with thermal properties to other thermal insulation materials produced from mineral or glass fibres.

description: Big data have the characteristics of enormous volume, high velocity, diversity, value-sparsity, and uncertainty, which lead the knowledge learning from them full of challenges. With the emergence of crowdsourcing, versatile information can be obtained on-demand so that the wisdom of crowds is easily involved to facilitate the knowledge learning process. During the past thirteen years, researchers in the AI community made great efforts to remove the obstacles in the field of learning from crowds. This concentrated survey paper comprehensively reviews the technical progress in crowdsourcing learning from a systematic perspective that includes three dimensions of data, models, and learning processes. In addition to reviewing existing important work, the paper places a particular emphasis on providing some promising blueprints on each dimension as well as discussing the lessons learned from our past research work, which will light up the way for new researchers and encourage them to pursue new contributions.

Exploring the Role of β-catenin Signaling in Hepatitis B Virus Regulation and Hepatocellular Carcinoma

description: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a devastating pathogen which kills up to 1 million people every year. Chronic carriers have no curative treatment options and suffer from liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A greater understanding of the in vivo regulation of HBV biosynthesis and HBV-associated HCC is important to developing effective therapies for HBV infected individuals. The current study seeks to elucidate the role of β-catenin in this regulation. Liver-specific β-catenin-null HBV transgenic mice reveal that β-catenin regulates HBV biosynthesis in vivo, as these mice exhibit a 3-fold reduction in viral replication and a major change in the distribution of viral biosynthesis across the liver lobule. Cell culture studies reveal that β-catenin regulates the transcription of viral pregenomic RNA and subsequent replication, primarily through the nuclear receptors liver receptor homolog 1 and farnesoid X receptor α. Additional post-transcriptional regulation of HBV biosynthesis by β-catenin may also occur. Liver-specific Apc- and Pten-null HBV transgenic mice are useful in vivo models of HCC in the context of viral replication. Pten-null mice develop HCC with heterogeneous phenotypes in regard to both HBV biosynthesis and β-catenin signaling despite sharing the same oncogenic mutation. Apc-null mice develop HCC with high β-catenin signaling but still heterogeneous phenotypes in regard to HBV biosynthesis and other transcriptional profiles. Dual Pten-null Apc-null mice develop HCC with generally intermediate, but still heterogeneous, phenotypes. These results indicate that the cell of origin in the liver lobule plays an important role in determining tumor phenotype in addition to the specific initiating mutation, which carries important implications for the development of effective therapies for individual HCC patients.

description: Indoor air relative humidity is an important parameter influencing the hygro-thermal performance of building structures and the indoor climate as well. In order to predict the resultant indoor humidity in the zone for the designed indoor surfaces and moisture production/ventilation regime and to suggest possible improvements, a sufficiently accurate dynamic model is necessary.
The computational codes simulating the interaction between indoor air and interior hygroscopic materials can be divided roughly into two groups: codes using simple lumped models and codes using a detailed description of the heat and mass transfer phenomena in the building structures.
Ability of one of simplified models – model based on EMPD concept was evaluated in case that the main EPMD approach assumption – the limited thickness of hygroscopic material – is fulfilled. In practise the assumption of limited penetration depth is fulfilled in case when most of hygroscopic surfaces are represented by room equipment (carpets, furniture) or by the structures with water vapour barrier under the indoor hygroscopic layer.
The evaluation of EMPD model was done by comparison of the indoor humidity simulation results by complex computational code NPI and simplified code PenDepth based on EMPD concept. On the base of the comparison the reliability of the EMPD model for different moisture production/ventilation regimes, outdoor weather changes and indoor temperature changes was determined.

A New Method of Determining Moisture Flow Coefficients for both Isothermal and Nonisothermal Conditions

description: The calculation of non-isothermal moisture transport requires a moisture flow coefficient, Dφ(φ,T), for isothermal flow with φ as the moisture state variable. In the non-isothermal case, a second flow coefficient, DTφ(φ,T), is required to account for the temperature gradient. This means that a number of isothermal measurements are required for a few different temperature levels. It also means that a second set of measurements with temperature gradients are required.

This paper presents a new method of determining these flow coefficients for a set of moisture states and temperature levels. This is accomplished by measuring the change in mass over time as the sample absorbs or desorbs moisture. The sample is sealed and thermally insulated on all but one side with a heating pad at the top of the sample (within the insulation). This assembly is hung from a balance in a climate box that has a controlled temperature and relative humidity. The sample is exposed to a step-wise change in relative humidity and the change in mass over time is recorded. Care is taken to ensure that the sample is either absorbing or desorbing moisture in order to avoid complications with hysteresis. In the isothermal case, the sample is kept at a constant temperature during the measurements. In the non-isothermal case the sample has a known temperature gradient set by the temperature of the heating pad and the temperature of the climate box. The moisture flow coefficients are obtained from an analysis of the transient changes in mass.

Preliminary results for a full set of measurements of a wood sample are presented in the paper.
Bone Marrow Specific Notch-IL21 Axis Primes and Expands Pre-Thymic T Cell Primed Lymphoid Progenitors

description: Long-term impairment in T cell mediated adaptive immunity is a major clinical obstacle after treatment of blood disorders with Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT). Although T cell development in the thymus has been extensively characterized, there are significant gaps in our understanding of the pre-thymic processes which influence early T cell potential. Recently, we and others have determined that the initial activation of the Notch signaling pathway, which is required for T cell development, occurs pre-thymically in Bone Marrow (BM) lymphoid progenitors. However, the downstream signaling events of Notch activation in BM progenitors in the context of T cell development are unknown. Here, we have uncovered a Notch-IL21 signaling axis which is involved in the priming of BM Common Lymphoid Progenitors (CLP) cells towards the T cell fate. IL21r expression is driven by Notch activation in CLPs, and in vivo treatment with IL21 induces Notch-dependent CLP proliferation. Taking advantage of this novel signaling axis, we have generated T cell progenitors ex vivo which better repopulate the thymus and peripheral lymphoid organs of mice in an allogeneic transplant model. Importantly, Notch and IL21 activation is equally effective in the priming and expansion of human cord blood cells toward the T cell fate, confirming the translational potential of the combined treatment. Therefore, Notch-IL21 treatment allows for the simultaneous T cell priming and rapid expansion of ex vivo derived T cell progenitors, which are therapeutically beneficial in improving T cell recovery post-HSCT.

description: Indoor air relative humidity is an important parameter influencing the hygro-thermal performance of building structures and the indoor climate as well. One possibility how to keep humidity variations in suitable range is to use moisture buffer effect of the indoor surface hygroscopic materials.
The aim of the work was to simulate dynamic moisture response of a hysteretic material and to evaluate the influence of hysteretic behavior on moisture buffer effect at real conditions – when only a part of material is involved in moisture uptake/release process.
The tests were done for autoclaved aerated concrete plate. The basic material properties as density and porosity as well as steady-state hygric properties – the sorption/desorption isotherm and the water vapour permeability moisture dependence of the tested materials were determined by standard methods.
The hygric dynamic behavior of the material was tested in climatic chamber with precise control of temperature and relative humidity. Before the tests the samples were oven dried at 40 °C. The tests were performed with cyclic step changes between 50 and 80 of RH. Three different regimes of RH step changes were tested: 8/16, 24/48 and 48/96 hours step changes. The temperature was kept at constant value. The specimens were sealed on all but two surfaces in order to guarantee 1D water vapour flow. The moisture uptake and release during the experiment was determined by continuously weighting of the samples.
The results of the tests were analysed and compared with the numerical simulation of the dynamic hygric response. On the base of the analysis the effects of hysteresis on resultant moisture buffer effect at different dynamic regimes were evaluated.

description: It is well recognized that the best approach to mitigate watershed impacts of urbanization is to develop runoff management practices that focus on retaining rainfall where it lands. This is a fundamental benefit of Low Impact Design (LID). Recent studies have shown that reductions in runoff volumes, peak flows, and pollutant loads using LID techniques can be substantial. Delaware\342\200\231s Urban Runoff Management Approach to LID is a type of \342\200\234Green Technology\342\200\235 (Lucas, 2004a). It is \342\200\234Green\342\200\235 since it relies on vegetative BMPs instead of traditional detention ponds; and it is a \342\200\234Technology\342\200\235, based upon physically-based processes, instead of a simple rule-of-thumb approach. Green Technology BMPs include biofiltration swales, terraces, filter strips and bioretention, as well as infiltration trenches. This paper briefly summarizes elements involved in Green Technology, and presents how it can be improved with an innovative infiltration approach.

description: This paper describes a project that investigates confined stormwater infiltration/filtration systems and their ability to reduce and retain pollutants present within stormwater runoff. These highly innovative Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) systems are located in three locations to the north and south of Sydney, Australia. They are positioned at different geographic locations and face different subsoil conditions, pollutant loadings and other constraints. The systems contain specially designed porous concrete pipes. Stormwater exfiltrates through the permeable walls of the pipe into the surrounding substrate media material. This provides primary, secondary and tertiary treatment of the stormwater. The systems are positioned underground and are designed to ensure that the integrity of surrounding soil, vegetation, groundwater and receiving water is not negatively impacted. The focus of this paper is the results obtained from the analysis of stormwater samples collected from the inlet and outlet of the systems. The results indicate significant reductions in the concentration of pollutants present in the stormwater that passes through the system. Some of the findings include: approximately 45% reduction in nutrient concentrations, while zinc concentrations have been lowered by approximately 90% and Faecal Coliform levels have been reduced by approximately 95%. The monitoring work is ongoing and further sample collections are required to further validate the findings.

To prevent floods in Bangkok: An operational radar and RTC application - Rainfall forecasting

description: Bangkok is known as one of the cities with a high flooding risk because of several reasons. These include: the city\342\200\231s rapid urbanization, the Chao Praya river inflow from the north of Thailand, an inadequate drainage capacity, backwater from the tidal effects of the Gulf of Thailand, and increase of groundwater consumption causing more land subsidence and sub-sequent reduced drainage capacity. Bangkok Municipal Administration has called for a flood forecasting system integrating information from rain gauges, hydrometric stations, radar measurements, satellite measurements and numerical weather prediction results. In this framework, a system based on MIKE FLOODWATCH in connection with SCOUT rainfall processing software has been implemented (see Mark et al., 2005). The performance criteria for the flood forecast system are set to be an accuray of 60% on the forecasted accumulated rain with a 3 hour horizon and a prediction of the water levels within a 5 cm accuracy. Rainfall forecast is an important part of the flood forecasting. The flood forecasting system will only be successful in providing vital early warning if rainfall forecast inputs are sufficiently accurate and definitive. This paper presents a procedure to improve the radar rainfall estimation system so that it is capable of quantitative rainfall estimation and to develop an end-to-end rainfall forecasting system in Bangkok. The SCOUT rainfall forecasting software was used for forecasting rainfall over the period 1 to 3 hours ahead. The average rainfall forecast accuracy of the 3-hour forecast lead time of the 14 studied events was found to be 72% according to the selected criterion. Catchment or areal aggregation was generated automatically from the model and displayed as time series. This quantitative output could thus be directly input to the flood forecasting model.
