description: Scaffolding proteins that direct the assembly of multiple kinases into a spatially localized signaling complex are often essential for the maintenance of an appropriate biological response. Although scaffolds are widely believed to have dramatic effects on the dynamics of signal propagation, the mechanisms that underlie these consequences are not well understood. Here, Monte Carlo simulations of a model kinase cascade are used to investigate how the temporal characteristics of signaling cascades can be influenced by the presence of scaffold proteins. Specifically, we examine the effects of spatially localizing kinase components on a scaffold on signaling dynamics. The simulations indicate that a major effect that scaffolds exert on the dynamics of cell signaling is to control how the activation of protein kinases is distributed over time. Scaffolds can influence the timing of kinase activation by allowing for kinases to become activated over a broad range of times, thus allowing for signaling at both early and late times. Scaffold concentrations that result in optimal signal amplitude also result in the broadest distributions of times over which kinases are activated. These calculations provide insights into one mechanism that describes how the duration of a signal can potentially be regulated in a scaffold mediated protein kinase cascade. Our results illustrate another complexity in the broad array of control properties that emerge from the physical effects of spatially localizing components of kinase cascades on scaffold proteins.

description: We introduce a novel learning-based, visibility-aware, surface reconstruction method for large-scale, defect-laden point clouds. Our approach can cope with the scale and variety of point cloud defects encountered in real-life Multi-View Stereo (MVS) acquisitions. Our method relies on a 3D Delaunay tetrahedralization whose cells are classified as inside or outside the surface by a graph neural network and an energy model solvable with a graph cut. Our model, making use of both local geometric attributes and line-of-sight visibility information, is able to learn a visibility model from a small amount of synthetic training data and generalizes to real-life acquisitions. Combining the efficiency of deep learning methods and the scalability of energy based models, our approach outperforms both learning and non learning-based reconstruction algorithms on two publicly available reconstruction benchmarks. Our code and data is available at https://github.com/raphaelsulzer/dgnn.

description: Biofortified foods are a new approach to increase minerals in the diet, and evidence suggests that zinc (Zn) biofortification can improve Zn physiological status in humans. This systematic review aimed to answer the question: "What are the effects of the consumption of Zn biofortified foods on Zn status in humans?". This review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines and registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021250566). PubMed, Cochrane, Scopus and Science Direct databases were searched for studies that evaluated the effects of Zn biofortified foods on Zn absorption. Of 4282 articles identified, nine remained after inclusion/exclusion criteria were applied. Limitations in study quality, external and internal validity (bias/confounding), and study power were evaluated. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) was used to assess the certainty of evidence. Of the nine articles included, five observed an increase in total Zn absorption, and one showed that Zn participated in the conversion of linoleic acid to dihomo-γ-linolenic acid. By increasing the amount of Zn in the food, Zn biofortification can reduce the phytate:Zn molar ratio and improve Zn absorption in humans. More studies are needed to clarify what portion of Zn biofortified foods/day is needed to achieve a significant effect on Zn status.

description: Although automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems achieved significantly improvements in recent years, spoken language recognition error occurs which can be easily spotted by human beings. Various language modeling techniques have been developed on post recognition tasks like semantic correction. In this paper, we propose a Transformer based semantic correction method with pretrained BART initialization, Experiments on 10000 hours Mandarin speech dataset show that character error rate (CER) can be effectively reduced by 21.7% relatively compared to our baseline ASR system. Expert evaluation demonstrates that actual improvement of our model surpasses what CER indicates.

description: Accurate 7Li(d,n)24He thermonuclear reaction rates are crucial for precise prediction of the primordial abundances of Lithium and Beryllium and to probe the mysteries beyond fundamental physics and the standard cosmological model. However, uncertainties still exist in current reaction rates of 7Li(d,n)24He widely used in Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) simulations. In this work, we reevaluate the 7Li(d,n)24He reaction rate using the latest data on the three near-threshold 9Be excited states from experimental measurements. We present for the first time uncertainties that are directly constrained by experiments. Additionally, we take into account for the first time the contribution from the subthreshold resonance at 16.671 MeV of 9Be. We obtain a 7Li(d,n)24He rate that is overall smaller than the previous estimation by about a factor of 60 at the typical temperature of the onset of primordial nucleosynthesis. We implemented our new rate in BBN nucleosynthesis calculations, and we show that the new rates have a very limited impact on the final light element abundances in uniform density models. Typical abundance variations are in the order of 0.002%. For nonuniform density BBN models, the predicted 7Li production can be increased by 10% and the primordial production of light nuclides with mass number A>7 can be increased by about 40%. Our results confirm that the cosmological lithium problem remains a long-standing unresolved puzzle from the standpoint of nuclear physics.
Time preference and Willingness to Consume

description: Time preference is an important part of consumer decision patterns for different degrees of discounting indicates different weights placed on intertemporal values. We try to investigate whether economic confidence measuring expected future income and consumers’ current economic assets can affect their willingness to consume and what role time preference plays in the relationships. We surveyed 6,113 adults in the U.S. to collect related variables and fit the data into both linear regression models for estimating continuous changes and a logistic regression model for examining the categorical prediction power given our predictors and adding to the robustness. The results show that there are two channels for time preference to impact willingness to consume: one way is to moderate the relationships with future-oriented economic confidence and current assets; the other way is to directly affect people’s purchasing objectives, to make them put more weight on the things that need to buy now. Through these two channels, the increase of time preference is associated with more orientation to the future consumption and the decrease of it relates to the focus on the present, which is demonstrated as showing greater willingness to consume.

description: Large quantities of serum are produced during the strained yoghurt manufacturing process, which is the predominant type of yoghurt in Greece. However, the exploitation of this by-product as an alternative source of energy, protein and mineral elements in animal diets has not yet been examined. Therefore, this experiment was conducted to determine the effects of dietary yoghurt serum supplementation on growth performance and antioxidant status in sheep.

Fourty eight male 2 months old lambs of Chios breed were randomly assigned to three experimental groups; control group was fed with a commercial basal diet, whereas the other two groups consumed the same diet, with the only difference that concentrated feed was uniformly supplemented with two levels of yoghurt serum powder (YS1: 25 g/kg feed or YS2: 50 g/kg feed). Lambs were weighed in a weekly basis from the beginning until the end of the experiment and blood samples were collected to measure antioxidant status.
No significant effect of yoghurt serum powder on growth performance of fattening lambs was demonstrated, even after 28 days of dietary supplementation (P>0.05). At the same time, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in blood plasma were not significantly different among the experimental groups (P>0.05) and no incidents of lambs with diarrhea were recorded. It can be concluded that yoghurt serum powder appears as a promising alternative of the cereals in the diets of fattening lambs, since no negative effects on growth performance and health status were observed.

description: We present the galaxy shear catalog that will be used for the three-year cosmological weak gravitational lensing analyses using data from the Wide layer of the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program (SSP) Survey. The galaxy shapes are measured from the $i$-band imaging data acquired from 2014 to 2019 and calibrated with image simulations that resemble the observing conditions of the survey based on training galaxy images from the Hubble Space Telescope in the COSMOS region. The catalog covers an area of 433.48 deg$^2$ of the northern sky, split into six fields. The mean $i$-band seeing is 0.59 arcsec. With conservative galaxy selection criteria (e.g., $i$-band magnitude brighter than 24.5), the observed raw galaxy number density is 22.9 arcmin$^{-2}$, and the effective galaxy number density is 19.9 arcmin$^{-2}$. The calibration removes the galaxy property-dependent shear estimation bias to a level: $|δm|<9\times 10^{-3}$. The bias residual $δm$ shows no dependence on redshift in the range $01$ degree scales and will require mitigation during the inference of cosmological parameters using cosmic shear measurements.

Development of memory for narratives : effects of encoding variability and age
Creators: name: White, William B.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Recall of narrative content was studied in a sample of 170 children ranging from 5 to 11 years of age. Age range was divided into three equal intervals. The children within each interval were randomly assigned to four encoding conditions (symbolic, iconic, enactive, and symbolic-rehearsal) so that any effects of interactions between age-affected cognitive capacities and different encoding conditions could be gauged at 30 seconds and one week (after encoding). Between-ages (within condition) and between conditions (within age) comparisons revealed that age increase was generally, though not uniformly, accompanied by significant recall advantage. Analyses revealed that effects of different encoding conditions were sufficiently variable across the ages that age advantage was diminished when free recall performances of 5-7 year old children in enactive and iconic encoding conditions were compared to free recall performances of older children (9-11 years of age) in symbolic conditions of encoding. The results are discussed in relation to theoretical issues and educational questions.
Tail universalities in rank distributions as an algebraic problem: the beta-like function

description: Although power laws of the Zipf type have been used by many workers to fit rank distributions in different fields like in economy, geophysics, genetics, soft-matter, networks etc., these fits usually fail at the tails. Some distributions have been proposed to solve the problem, but unfortunately they do not fit at the same time both ending tails. We show that many different data in rank laws, like in granular materials, codons, author impact in scientific journal, etc. are very well fitted by a beta-like function. Then we propose that such universality is due to the fact that a system made from many subsystems or choices, imply stretched exponential frequency-rank functions which qualitatively and quantitatively can be fitted with the proposed beta-like function distribution in the limit of many random variables. We prove this by transforming the problem into an algebraic one: finding the rank of successive products of a given set of numbers.

description: We study the effects of moderately strong magnetic fields on the properties of color-flavor locked color superconducting quark matter in the framework of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. We find that the energy gaps, which describe the color superconducting pairing as well as the magnetization, are oscillating functions of the magnetic field. Also, we observe that the oscillations of the magnetization can be so strong that homogeneous quark matter becomes metastable for a range of parameters. We suggest that this points to the possibility of magnetic domains or other types of magnetic inhomogeneities in the quark cores of magnetars.

Assuming SU(2|2) symmetry, factorizability and certain crossing-unitarity relations, we find the S-matrix including the dressing phase. We use this S-matrix to formulate the asymptotic Bethe ansatz. Our result for the Bethe-Yang equations and corresponding Bethe ansatz equations confirms the all-loop Bethe ansatz equations recently conjectured by Gromov and Vieira.

description: Recent experimental developments in hydrogen-rich materials in high pressures have put this class of materials above others in the race toward room temperature superconductivity. As it is the basis of all the materials in this class, the efforts to determine the properties of pure solid hydrogen at high pressures remain intense. Most notably, a recent experimental study of the metallization of hydrogen identified the crystal phase of the solid as the C2/c-24 molecular phase up to ~425 GPa. It is possible that the observed metallization is caused by band structure effects and not a structural phase transition, and the material remains in this crystal phase up to higher pressures. Therefore it is of crucial importance to determine the superconducting properties of the C2/c-24 phase. Here, we employ a Wannier function-based dense k-point and q-point sampling to compute the electron-phonon coupling and superconducting properties of molecular hydrogen in the C2/c-24 phase. We find that the material has a high superconducting transition temperature of 242 K at 500 GPa. We also find that the transition temperature rapidly increases with pressure in the 400 - 500 GPa range.

description: We consider the {\it indexable dictionary} problem, which consists of storing a set $S \subseteq \{0,...,m-1\}$ for some integer $m$, while supporting the operations of $\Rank(x)$, which returns the number of elements in $S$ that are less than $x$ if $x \in S$, and -1 otherwise; and $\Select(i)$ which returns the $i$-th smallest element in $S$. We give a data structure that supports both operations in O(1) time on the RAM model and requires ${\cal B}(n,m) + o(n) + O(\lg \lg m)$ bits to store a set of size $n$, where ${\cal B}(n,m) = \ceil{\lg {m \choose n}}$ is the minimum number of bits required to store any $n$-element subset from a universe of size $m$. Previous dictionaries taking this space only supported (yes/no) membership queries in O(1) time. In the cell probe model we can remove the $O(\lg \lg m)$ additive term in the space bound, answering a question raised by Fich and Miltersen, and Pagh. We present extensions and applications of our indexable dictionary data structure, including: An information-theoretically optimal representation of a $k$-ary cardinal tree that supports standard operations in constant time, A representation of a multiset of size $n$ from $\{0,...,m-1\}$ in ${\cal B}(n,m+n) + o(n)$ bits that supports (appropriate generalizations of) $\Rank$ and $\Select$ operations in constant time, and A representation of a sequence of $n$ non-negative integers summing up to $m$ in ${\cal B}(n,m+n) + o(n)$ bits that supports prefix sum queries in constant time.

Robust directional transmission beamforming techniques for smart antenna systems

description: Current developments in smart antenna technology include the use of adaptive antenna arrays to directively transmit and receive data from the mobile user. Implementing adaptive antennas only on uplink enhances the signal quality and provides considerable range extension for a cell site, but does not allow for significant increases in capacity. However, utilizing adaptive antennas for both uplink and downlink rejects co-channel interference to the degree that mobiles located at spatially distinct angles from the base station and mobiles located at shorter reuse distances can operate on the same frequency channel. Unfortunately, robust beamforming techniques for downlink have not been developed. Previous research studies have given theoretical performance comparisons of, primarily, DOA-based beamforming techniques for uplink transmissions. Very few RF experiments have been conducted which evaluate adaptive beamforming techniques in a real environment. In this thesis, experimental studies are conducted to evaluate adaptive beamforming techniques and determine a robust downlink transmission beamforming approach. Experimental data is presented which demonstrates the stability of strong specular DOAs over a 25 MHz frequency range, and the robust performance of a new integrated DOA-based beamforming approach for both uplink and downlink transmissions. The spatial signature beamforming approach is shown to perform better than DOA-based beamforming on uplink, but to be less robust on downlink for Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) systems. Additional research is needed to validate these results for larger frequency differences in both cellular and PCS bands

Several cosmic shear statistics have been developed in order to analyze data from surveys. For the covariances of the prevalent second-order measures we present simple and handy formulae, valid under the assumptions of Gaussian density fluctuations and a simple survey geometry. We also formulate these results in the context of shear tomography, i.e. the inclusion of redshift information, and generalize them to arbitrary data field geometries. We define estimators for the E- and B-mode projected power spectra and show them to be unbiased in the case of Gaussianity and a simple survey geometry. From the covariance of these estimators we demonstrate how to derive covariances of arbitrary combinations of second-order cosmic shear measures. We then recalculate the power spectrum covariance for general survey geometries and examine the bias thereby introduced on the estimators for exemplary configurations. Our results for the covariances are considerably simpler than and analytically shown to be equivalent to the real-space approach presented in the first paper of this series. We find good agreement with other numerical evaluations and confirm the general properties of the covariance matrices. The studies of the specific survey configurations suggest that our simplified covariances may be employed for realistic survey geometries to good approximation.

Effects of differing sign languages and communication modes on the comprehension of stories by deaf students
Creators: name: Stewart, David Alan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to examine comprehension by deaf students of stories presented in Signed English (SE) and American Sign Language (ASL), under three modal conditions manual-only, manual plus oral, and manual plus oral plus aural. It was predicted that: (1) an increase in comprehension would correspond to an increase in the number of modes used in presenting the stories; (2) ASL would be a more efficient method of communication than SE; (3) there would be an interaction effect between language and mode of presentation; and (4) in unbalanced bilinguals a translation to the dominant language would occur when a story was presented in the subordinate language. Thirty-six deaf subjects from the British Columbia provincial School for the Deaf participated in the study; their mean age was 16 years 7 months, and their average hearing threshold level in the better ear was 99.8 decibels with a range of 83 decibels to 113 decibels. All subjects had a minimum of five years. experience as students in total communication programs using SE. Three ghost stories (mean readability level = Grade 2.7) were videotaped under all modal conditions for each of the languages. In the experimental task, subjects were shown a different story under each of the three modal conditions; but each subject was given stories in only one language. After each viewing the subject's retelling was videotaped. Data analyses showed that: there was no significant treatment effect for mode of presentation; subjects reproduced stories presented in ASL better than SE stories; there was an interaction between language and modes, where adding speechreading to the manual-only modality led to higher comprehension scores in the SE presentations; and a majority of subjects retold ASL and SE stories in ASL. The results support ASL as being the more effective method of communication for signing deaf students who have extensive training in total communication and Signed English. It is suggested that total communication classes adopt an ASL-English bilingual program to enhance classroom communication and assist in the development of oral and aural skills, and that speech always accompany the use of SE. Suggestions were made for future research activities.

description: The recent discovery of superconductivity in the so-called iron-oxypnictide family of compounds has generated intense interest. The layered crystal structure with transition metal ions in planar square lattice form and the discovery of spin-density-wave order near 130 K seem to hint at a strong similarity with the copper oxide superconductors. A burning current issue is the nature of the ground state of the parent compounds. Two distinct classes of theories have been put forward depending on the underlying band structures: local moment antiferromagnetic ground state for strong coupling approach and itinerant ground state for weak coupling approach. The local moment magnetism approach stresses on-site correlations and proximity to a Mott insulating state and thus the resemblance to cuprates; while the latter approach emphasizes the itinerant electron physics and the interplay between the competing ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic fluctuations. Such a controversy is partly due to the lack of conclusive experimental information on the electronic structures. Here we report the first angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) investigation of LaOFeP (Tc = 5.9 K), the first reported iron-based superconductor. Our results favor the itinerant ground state, albeit with band renormalization. In addition, our data reveal important differences between these and copper based superconductors.

description: We present preliminary results from our archival Spitzer Space Telescope program aimed at characterizing the mid-IR properties of compact objects, both isolated and in binary systems, i.e. white dwarfs, X-ray binaries, cataclysmic variables, and magnetars. Most of these sources are too faint at mid-IR wavelengths to be observable from the ground, so this study provides the very first comprehensive look at the mid-IR emission of these objects. Here we present our results for the low mass X-ray binaries. We considered all of the systems listed in the most recent catalog of Liu et al. (2007) that have known optical counterparts. The particular goals of our projects encompass: to establish the mid-IR spectral energy distribution, to search for the signatures of jets, circumbinary disks, low mass or planetary companions and debris disks, and to study the local environment of these sources.

description: The main objective of this work consists in analyzing sub-structuring method for the parallel solution of sparse linear systems with matrices arising from the discretization of partial differential equations such as finite element, finite volume and finite difference. With the success encountered by the general-purpose processing on graphics processing units (GPGPU), we develop an hybrid multiGPUs and CPUs sub-structuring algorithm. GPU computing, with CUDA, is used to accelerate the operations performed on each processor. Numerical experiments have been performed on a set of matrices arising from engineering problems. We compare C+MPI implementation on classical CPU cluster with C+MPI+CUDA on a cluster of GPU. The performance comparison shows a speed-up for the sub-structuring method up to 19 times in double precision by using CUDA.

description: We generalize the previously given algebraic version of "Feynman's proof of Maxwell's equations" to noncommutative configuration spaces. By doing so, we also obtain an axiomatic formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics over such spaces, which, in contrast to most examples discussed in the literature, does not rely on a distinguished set of coordinates. We give a detailed account of several examples, e.g., of nonabelian Yang-Mills theories, and of noncommutative tori. Moreover we, examine models over the Moyal-deformed plane. Assuming the conservation of electrical charges, we show that in this case the canonical uncertainty relation [x_k, \dot{x}_l] = ig_{kl} with metric g_{kl} is only consistent if g_{kl} is constant.

description: We demonstrate two patterning techniques based on hydrogen passivation of Ga1-xMnxAs to produce isolated ferromagnetically active regions embedded uniformly in a paramagnetic, insulating host. The first method consists of selective hydrogenation of Ga1-xMnxAs by lithographic masking. Magnetotransport measurements of Hall-bars made in this manner display the characteristic properties of the hole-mediated ferromagnetic phase, which result from good pattern isolation. Arrays of Ga1-xMnxAs dots as small as 250 nm across have been realized by this process. The second process consists of blanket hydrogenation of Ga1-xMnxAs followed by local reactivation using confined low-power pulsed-laser annealing. Conductance imaging reveals local electrical reactivation of micrometer-sized regions that accompanies the restoration of ferromagnetism. The spatial resolution achievable with this method can potentially reach <100 nm by employing near-field laser processing. The high spatial resolution attainable by hydrogenation patterning enables the development of systems with novel functionalities such as lateral spin-injection as well as the exploration of magnetization dynamics in individual and coupled structures made from this novel class of semiconductors.

description: The recent observation at the Tevatron of $Σ_b^{\pm}$ ($uub$ and $ddb$) baryons within 2 MeV of the predicted $Σ_b - Λ_b$ splitting and of $Ξ_b^-$ $(dsb)$ baryons at the Tevatron within a few MeV of predictions has provided strong confirmation for a theoretical approach based on modeling the color hyperfine interaction. The prediction of $M(Ξ^-_b) = 5790$ to 5800 MeV is reviewed and similar methods used to predict the masses of the excited states $Ξ_b^\prime$ and $Ξ_b^*$. The main source of uncertainty is the method used to estimate the mass difference $m_b - m_c$ from known hadrons. We verify that corrections due to the details of the interquark potential and to $Ξ_b$--$Ξ_b^\prime$ mixing are small. For S-wave $qqb$ states we predict $M(Ω_b) = 6052.1 \pm 5.6$ MeV, $M(Ω^*_b) = 6082.8 \pm 5.6$ MeV, and $M(Ξ_b^0) = 5786.7 \pm 3.0$ MeV. For states with one unit of orbital angular momentum between the $b$ quark and the two light quarks we predict $M(Λ_{b[1/2]}) = 5929 \pm 2$ MeV, $M(Λ_{b[3/2]}) = 5940 \pm 2$ MeV, $M(Ξ_{b[1/2]}) = 6106 \pm 4$ MeV, and $M(Ξ_{b[3/2]}) = 6115 \pm 4$ MeV. Results are compared with those of other recent approaches.

description: The tensor-entanglement renormalization group approach is applied to Hamiltonians that realize a class of topologically ordered states -- string-net condensed states. We analyze phase transitions between phases with and without string-net condensation. These phase transitions change topological order without changing any symmetries. This demonstrates that the tensor-entanglement renormalization group approach can be used to study the phase diagram of a quantum system with topologically ordered phases.

description: The aim of this work is to introduce the main concepts of Fractional Calculus, followed by one of its application to classical electrodynamics, illustrating how non-locality can be interpreted naturally in a fractional scenario. In particular, a result relating fractional dynamics to high frequency dielectric response is used as motivation. In addition to the theoretical discussion, a comprehensive review of two numerical procedures for fractional integration is carried out, allowing one immediately to build numerical models applied to high frequency electromagnetics and correlated fields.

Interacting spinless fermions on the square lattice: Charge order, phase separation, and superconductivity

description: We investigate the phase diagram of spinless fermions on a square lattice with nearest-neighbor interaction, using the recently developed projective truncation approximation in Green's function equation of motion. For attractive interaction, the ground state is in an homogeneous p + ip superconducting (SC) phase at high or low electron densities. Near half filling is a phase separation (PS) between the SC phases. Allowing inhomogeneous solution, we obtain p-wave SC domains with positive interface energy. As temperature increases, the SC phases transit into normal phases above Tsc, generating an homogeneous normal phase (far away from n = 1/2), or a PS between normal phases with different densities (close to n = 1/2). Further increasing temperature to Tps, the PS disappears and the particle-hole symmetry of the Hamiltonian is recovered. For repulsive interaction, depending on electron filling, the ground state is in charge-ordered phase (half filling), charge-disordered phase (large hole/electron doping), or PS between them (weak doping). At finite temperature, the regime of charge order phase moves to finite V and extends to finite doping regime.
