Inflation followed by Belinskii-Khalatnikov-Lifshitz collapse inside accreting, rotating black holes
Creators: name: Hamilton, Andrew J. S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Numerical evidence is presented that the Poisson-Israel mass inflation instability at the inner horizon of an accreting, rotating black hole is generically followed by Belinskii-Khalatnikov-Lifshitz oscillatory collapse to a spacelike singularity. The computation involves following all 6 degrees of freedom of the gravitational field. To simplify the problem, the computation takes as initial conditions the conformally separable solutions of arXiv:1010.1269, arXiv:1010.1271 just above the inner horizon of a slowly accreting, rotating black hole, and integrates the equations inward along single latitudes.

description: This thesis analyses the performance of various classification algorithms for epileptic seizure prediction algorithm development to find which algorithm performs better than others on long term electroencephalogram dataset. It shows that statistically there is no statistically significant difference between the performance of various classification algorithms for seizure prediction model development. It also demonstrates that there is variability between the performance of a given classification algorithm for various patients. Hence, seizure prediction algorithm is patients specific.

description: Accurate time series forecasting is highly beneficial for many types of businesses and industries, especially for improved decision making and strategic planning. Some industries had experienced huge financial losses due to the inaccurate forecasts provided by their forecasting models. This Ph.D. research aimed to address some existing issues in the forecasting space by using global modelling and ensembling which combines the forecasts of multiple models in the prediction process. Consequently, a set of novel and highly accurate forecasting frameworks are introduced where practitioners can incorporate them with their applications to obtain more accurate forecasts leading to high commercial benefits.

description: Time series classification is a specialised area of machine learning focused on understanding and exploiting dynamic processes such as environmental, patient, and equipment monitoring, and financial markets. However, many of the most accurate methods for time series classification require significant computational resources. This thesis presents three new methods, together representing a significant advance in terms of accuracy versus computational cost. These new methods can process large quantities of time series data in minutes or hours compared to days or weeks for existing methods, allowing us to learn from larger quantities of time series data with lower computational cost.

description: Saturn's northern summertime hemisphere was mapped by JWST/MIRI (4.9-27.9 $μ$m) in November 2022, tracing the seasonal evolution of temperatures, aerosols, and chemical species in the five years since the end of the Cassini mission. The spectral region between reflected sunlight and thermal emission (5.1-6.8 $μ$m) is mapped for the first time, enabling retrievals of phosphine, ammonia, and water, alongside a system of two aerosol layers (an upper tropospheric haze $p<0.3$ bars, and a deeper cloud layer at 1-2 bars). Ammonia displays substantial equatorial enrichment, suggesting similar dynamical processes to those found in Jupiter's equatorial zone. Saturn's North Polar Stratospheric Vortex has warmed since 2017, entrained by westward winds at $p<10$ mbar, and exhibits localised enhancements in several hydrocarbons. The strongest latitudinal temperature gradients are co-located with the peaks of the zonal winds, implying wind decay with altitude. Reflectivity contrasts at 5-6 $μ$m compare favourably with albedo contrasts observed by Hubble, and several discrete vortices are observed. A warm equatorial stratospheric band in 2022 is not consistent with a 15-year repeatability for the equatorial oscillation. A stacked system of windshear zones dominates Saturn's equatorial stratosphere, and implies a westward equatorial jet near 1-5 mbar at this epoch. Lower stratospheric temperatures, and local minima in the distributions of several hydrocarbons, imply low-latitude upwelling and a reversal of Saturn's interhemispheric circulation since equinox. Latitudinal distributions of stratospheric ethylene, benzene, methyl and carbon dioxide are presented for the first time, and we report the first detection of propane bands in the 8-11 $μ$m region.

description: Virtual and augmented reality technologies immerse users in a digital 3D space. Data can be visualised and interacted with as though they were real objects. This thesis investigates how conventional 2D surfaces can be used to support immersive analysis of data in three areas. First, how surfaces can support collaborative visualisation in a shared immersive 3D environment. Second, how data visualisations morph as they are physically moved between surfaces and space. Third, how surfaces and space can be used to facilitate data understanding. The thesis describes working prototypes and user studies that explore surfaces and space in all three areas.
Instrumental Variable Quantile Regression with Misclassification
Creators: name: Ura, Takuya
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper considers the instrumental variable quantile regression model (Chernozhukov and Hansen, 2005, 2013) with a binary endogenous treatment. It offers two identification results when the treatment status is not directly observed. The first result is that, remarkably, the reduced-form quantile regression of the outcome variable on the instrumental variable provides a lower bound on the structural quantile treatment effect under the stochastic monotonicity condition (Small and Tan, 2007; DiNardo and Lee, 2011). This result is relevant, not only when the treatment variable is subject to misclassification, but also when any measurement of the treatment variable is not available. The second result is for the structural quantile function when the treatment status is measured with error; I obtain the sharp identified set by deriving moment conditions under widely-used assumptions on the measurement error. Furthermore, I propose an inference method in the presence of other covariates.

description: A multi-view data visualisation system uses multiple views to support the investigation of a single conceptual data entity. Data visualisation has traditionally been done on screens. However, emerging technologies like virtual and augmented reality create new possibilities for exploring data in immersive environments. This thesis explores the factors that could influence and inform interface and interaction design for managing multi-view visualisations in immersive spaces. We characterise fundamental design aspects, implement prototypes to demonstrate design possibilities, and evaluate them with user studies. Amongst other findings, our user studies reveal an effect of spatial layout of views on spatial memory and ergonomics.

description: The image biomarker standardisation initiative (IBSI) is an independent international collaboration which works towards standardising the extraction of image biomarkers from acquired imaging for the purpose of high-throughput quantitative image analysis (radiomics). Lack of reproducibility and validation of high-throughput quantitative image analysis studies is considered to be a major challenge for the field. Part of this challenge lies in the scantiness of consensus-based guidelines and definitions for the process of translating acquired imaging into high-throughput image biomarkers. The IBSI therefore seeks to provide image biomarker nomenclature and definitions, benchmark data sets, and benchmark values to verify image processing and image biomarker calculations, as well as reporting guidelines, for high-throughput image analysis.

QED at NNLO and beyond for precision experiments

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Low-energy experiments allow for some of the most precise measurements in particle physics, such as $g-2$. To make the most of these experiments, theory needs to match the experimental precision. Over the last decade, this meant that even in QED next-to-next-to-leading order calculations (or even more in some cases) became necessary. McMule (Monte Carlo for MUons and other LEptons) is a framework that we have developed to obtain NNLO predictions for a number of processes, such as $eμ\to eμ$, $ee\to ee$, and $μ\to eν\barν$. I will discuss some of the challenges faced when dealing with QED corrections and some possible solutions we have implemented in McMule, namely the subtraction scheme FKS$^\ell$, massification, and next-to-soft stabilisation. I will also demonstrate how to calculate the three-loop massification constant that will be required at N$^3$LO.

Muon-electron scattering at NNLO with McMule
Creators: name: Rocco, Marco

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A recently proposed experiment, MUonE, aims to extract the hadronic vacuum polarisation contribution to the muon g-2 from muon-electron scattering at low energy. The extrapolation requires that both experimental and theoretical uncertainties do not exceed 10 ppm. This corresponds, at least, to next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QED corrections to $e μ\to e μ$. I will discuss the implementation of a Monte Carlo integrator for this process in the McMule framework arXiv:2212.06481, which provides infrared-safe differential results at said order in QED. An approximation of the MUonE setup provides some phenomenological results and sheds light on the need for beyond-NNLO corrections, which are currently under study within McMule.

description: We propose and demonstrate a new use for conformal field theory (CFT) crossing equations in the context of AdS/CFT: the computation of loop amplitudes in AdS, dual to non-planar correlators in holographic CFTs. Loops in AdS are largely unexplored, mostly due to technical difficulties in direct calculations. We revisit this problem, and the dual $1/N$ expansion of CFTs, in two independent ways. The first is to show how to explicitly solve the crossing equations to the first subleading order in $1/N^2$, given a leading order solution. This is done as a systematic expansion in inverse powers of the spin, to all orders. These expansions can be resummed, leading to the CFT data for finite values of the spin. Our second approach involves Mellin space. We show how the polar part of the four-point, loop-level Mellin amplitudes can be fully reconstructed from the leading-order data. The anomalous dimensions computed with both methods agree. In the case of $ϕ^4$ theory in AdS, our crossing solution reproduces a previous computation of the one-loop bubble diagram. We can go further, deriving part of the four-point function in $ϕ^3+ϕ^4$ theory in AdS which had never been computed. In the process, we show how to analytically derive anomalous dimensions from Mellin amplitudes with an infinite series of poles, and discuss applications to more complicated cases such as the ${\cal N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory.

description: As the dimensionality of data increases, so does the difficulty of comprehensive visualization. Traditional linear projections view discrete pairs of linear components. Tours are a class of linear projections that animate over small changes to the projection. The manual tour uniquely enables an analyst to steer a path of bases. This thesis discusses a package that facilitates their creation. A user study finds the manual tour outperforms traditional visualizations on a variable attribution task. This work introduces a novel approach to examine the support of nonlinear model explanations with the radial tour. An accompanying package facilitates this analysis.

description: The deconfined quantum critical point (QCP), separating the Néel and valence bond solid phases in a 2D antiferromagnet, was proposed as an example of $2+1$D criticality fundamentally different from standard Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson-Fisher {criticality}. In this work we present multiple equivalent descriptions of deconfined QCPs, and use these to address the possibility of enlarged emergent symmetries in the low energy limit. The easy-plane deconfined QCP, besides its previously discussed self-duality, is dual to $N_f = 2$ fermionic quantum electrodynamics (QED), which has its own self-duality and hence may have an O(4)$\times Z_2^T$ symmetry. We propose several dualities for the deconfined QCP with ${\mathrm{SU}(2)}$ spin symmetry which together make natural the emergence of a previously suggested $SO(5)$ symmetry rotating the Néel and VBS orders. These emergent symmetries are implemented anomalously. The associated infra-red theories can also be viewed as surface descriptions of 3+1D topological paramagnets, giving further insight into the dualities. We describe a number of numerical tests of these dualities. We also discuss the possibility of "pseudocritical" behavior for deconfined critical points, and the meaning of the dualities and emergent symmetries in such a scenario.

On the Effects of Tokamak Plasma Edge Symmetries on Turbulence Relaxation

Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: The plasma edge of a tokamak configuration is characterized by turbulent dynamics leading to enhanced transport. We construct a simplified 3D Hasegawa--Wakatani model reducing to a single partial differential equation for the turbulent electric potential dynamics. Simulations demonstrate how the 3D turbulence relaxes on a 2D axisymmetric profile, corresponding to the so-called interchange turbulence. The spectral features of this regime are found to be strongly dependent on the initialization pattern. We outline that the emergence of axisymmetric turbulence is also achieved when the corresponding mode amplitude is not initialized. Then, we introduce the symmetries of the magnetic X-point of a tokamak configuration. We linearize the governing equation by treating the poloidal field as a small correction. We show that it is not always possible to solve the electric potential dynamics following a perturbative approach. This finding, which is due to resonance between the modes of the background and the poloidal perturbation, confirms that the X-point symmetries can alter the properties of turbulent transport in the edge region.

description: Increasing levels of antibiotic resistance in many bacterial pathogen populations are a major threat to public health. Resistance to an antibiotic provides a fitness benefit when the bacteria is exposed to this antibiotic, but resistance also often comes at a cost to the resistant pathogen relative to susceptible counterparts. We lack a good understanding of these benefits and costs of resistance for many bacterial pathogens and antibiotics, but estimating them could lead to better use of antibiotics in a way that reduces or prevents the spread of resistance. Here, we propose a new model for the joint epidemiology of susceptible and resistant variants, which includes explicit parameters for the cost and benefit of resistance. We show how Bayesian inference can be performed under this model using phylogenetic data from susceptible and resistant lineages and that by combining data from both we are able to disentangle and estimate the resistance cost and benefit parameters separately. We applied our inferential methodology to several simulated datasets to demonstrate good scalability and accuracy. We analysed a dataset of Neisseria gonorrhoeae genomes collected between 2000 and 2013 in the USA. We found that two unrelated lineages resistant to fluoroquinolones shared similar epidemic dynamics and resistance parameters. Fluoroquinolones were abandoned for the treatment of gonorrhoea due to increasing levels of resistance, but our results suggest that they could be used to treat a minority of around 10% of cases without causing resistance to grow again.

description: Clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease is often delayed and limited in accuracy. Although recent advances in digital health are beginning to introduce promising tools to overcome these clinical limitations, this research field is still evolving. Therefore, addressing these issues, this thesis incorporates emerging multimodal behavioural analytics, mainly focusing on changes in hand movements and gestures to identify early predictors of cognitive decline. Among the contributions of the thesis are the discovery of novel and significant indicators of early cognitive decline, methodological approaches and dataset for future research. These contributions assist in developing digital tools with improved accuracy and sensitivity facilitating early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.

We calculate asymmetry at $\sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV, and compare the results with PHENIX data on TSSA in the process $p + p^\uparrow \to J/ψ+X$. We also present estimates for asymmetry at $\sqrt{s} = 115 $ GeV corresponding to the proposed fixed target experiment AFTER@LHC and at $\sqrt{s} = 500$ GeV corresponding to the higher RHIC energy. Finally, we investigate the effect of the transverse momentum dependent (TMD) evolution of the densities involved, on the asymmetry.

description: A description of the motion in noninertial reference frames by means of the inclusion of high time derivatives is studied. Incompleteness of the description of physical reality is a problem of any theory, both in quantum mechanics and classical physics. The ``stability principle'' is put forward. We~also provide macroscopic examples of noninertial mechanics and verify the use of high-order derivatives as nonlocal hidden variables on the basis of the equivalence principle when acceleration is equal to the gravitational field. Acceleration in this case is a function of high derivatives with respect to time. The~definition of dark metrics for matter and energy is presented to replace the standard notions of dark matter and dark energy. In the Conclusion section, problem symmetry is noted for noninertial mechanics.

title: Improving therapeutic outcomes for defendants : measuring the therapeutic contributions of legal actors
Creators: name: Waterworth, RK
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania
Year: 2021

description: ‘Improving therapeutic outcomes for defendants: measuring the therapeutic contributions of legal actors.’ The question of how to improve therapeutic outcomes for defendants with mental health concerns moving through criminal court systems is an enduring dilemma. Unfortunately, research suggests that mainstream criminal court experiences can themselves be criminogenic and the question becomes even more complex when dealing with individuals experiencing mental illness, social disadvantage, drug addiction, or other endemic social problems. This thesis examines the possible methods of action within the court system to improve outcomes for the above identified group of defendants, firstly by reviewing the possibilities offered by legal reform, diversion to mental health and other services, and mainstreaming therapeutic jurisprudence principles to the magistrates criminal courts. After finding limitations to all in terms of the likelihood of non-optimal therapeutic outcomes, the thesis then focusses on how to utilise therapeutic jurisprudence principles to change the qualitative nature of court experiences so as to render them a powerful venue for therapeutic change themselves. This goal is realized by the development of a behavioural description of desirable magistrate behaviours when interacting with a defendant within a courtroom so as to have the best chance of facilitating therapeutic change for a defendant. This behavioural description is the first evidence-based description of its kind, derived from the literature on common denominators of therapeutic change, procedural justice and legitimacy of justice, and founded in ‘court craft’ descriptions of therapeutic jurisprudence.

description: Taxonomy expansion task is essential in organizing the ever-increasing volume of new concepts into existing taxonomies. Most existing methods focus exclusively on using textual semantics, leading to an inability to generalize to unseen terms and the "Prototypical Hypernym Problem." In this paper, we propose Visual Taxonomy Expansion (VTE), introducing visual features into the taxonomy expansion task. We propose a textual hypernymy learning task and a visual prototype learning task to cluster textual and visual semantics. In addition to the tasks on respective modalities, we introduce a hyper-proto constraint that integrates textual and visual semantics to produce fine-grained visual semantics. Our method is evaluated on two datasets, where we obtain compelling results. Specifically, on the Chinese taxonomy dataset, our method significantly improves accuracy by 8.75 %. Additionally, our approach performs better than ChatGPT on the Chinese taxonomy dataset.

description: Epilepsy is the most common chronic neurological disorder. Clinical neurologists use Electroencephalography (EEG) to record the voltage fluctuations within the brain via surface scalp electrodes. The EEG recording of an epileptic patient may show interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), which are intermittent electrophysiological events occurring between 2 seizures. Visual analysis of the EEG recording for IED is a time-consuming process that might take a neurologist up to 4 hours. This research leverages clinical data from patients with epilepsy collected at the Alfred Health and Royal Melbourne over the past 10 years and investigated different deep learning architectures to automate this process.

The second part addresses the key topics of bi-objective and weight constrained path finding. It first presents a new bi-objective search framework that improves the runtime and memory usage of the state of the art by several factors. It then introduces four fast algorithms for the weight constrained shortest path problem and show how our enhanced algorithms can improve the performance over the state of the art by several orders of magnitude.

description: This work presents a novel approach to active and passive control of fluid flow on a stretching cylinder, considering the collective effects of electromagnetism, and chemical reactivity. The Maxwell fluid flow over the stretched surface of a cylinder is responsible for the improvement in heat transfer. The proposed methodology leverages the power of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) to effectively manipulate and optimize fluid flow behavior in this complex system. By integrating ANN into the control strategy, we achieve enhanced propulsion system design and optimization capabilities, enabling improved performance around cylinders. Additionally, insights into the interconnection of electromagnetic effects and heat sources provide valuable implications for thermal management systems, where understanding and controlling fluid flow behavior are essential for efficient heat transfer. The design approach for addressing different aspects of the fluid problem consists of a sequence of operations, which encompass training, testing, and validation using a reference dataset. Furthermore, visual representations are employed to portray the flow model parameters concerning momentum, energy, and concentration profiles, effectively illustrating the results of the investigation, all of which are closely aligned with each other on average 10−8.

description: We propose a scheme to generate macroscopic superposition states in spin ensembles, where a coherent driving field is applied to accelerate the generation of macroscopic superposition states. The numerical calculation demonstrates that this approach allows us to generate a superposition of two classically distinct states of the spin ensemble with a high fidelity above 0.96 for 300 spins. For the larger spin ensemble, though the fidelity slightly decline, it maintains above 0.85 for an ensemble of 500 spins. The time to generate a macroscopic superposition state is also numerically calculated, which shows that the significantly shortened generation time allows us to achieve such macroscopic superposition states within a typical coherence time of the system.

description: PHAROS2 (PHased Arrays for Reflector Observing Systems2) è un dimostratore di Phased Array Feed in banda C (4-8 GHz) per applicazioni radio astronomiche che è stato progettato nell’ambito dell’Advanced Instrumentation Program dei PAF per lo Square Kilometer Array da una collaborazione internazionale che coinvolge l’Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica. PHAROS2 è basato su un array di 10×11 antenne di tipo Vivaldi a doppia polarizzazione raffreddato a 20 K all’interno di un criostato (vedi Figura 1) insieme a degli amplificatori a bassissimo rumore di tipo LNA (low-noise amplifier). L’array è popolato con 24 LNA su uno dei due canali di polarizzazione, mentre i restanti elementi sono terminati su un carico adattato a 50 Ω. I 24 segnali RF in uscita dal criostato di PHAROS2 vengono inviati tramite cavi coassiali ad una Warm Section, ovvero un ricevitore multicanale a 32 ingressi (di cui sono utilizzati solo 24) che permette il filtraggio, l’amplificazione e la downconversione di ciascun canale ad una banda di frequenza intermedia IF compresa tra 375 e 650 MHz. Tale banda IF è adatta al successivo processamento da parte del backend digitale iTPM (Italian Tile Processing Module) che è stato sviluppato nell’ambito del progetto SKA Low Frequency Aperture Array (LFAA). Tale backend, basato su Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) consente di campionare fino a 32 segnale RF su una larghezza di banda istantanea di ≈500 MHz. I 24 segnali IF in uscita dalla Warm Section vengono inviati al backend tramite 12 link analogici in fibra ottica di tipo WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing). Tali link consentono di trasmettere due segnali IF all’interno di un’unica fibra mediante due trasmettitori laser operanti alle lunghezze d’onda ottiche (infrarosse) λ=1270 nm e λ=1330 nm. Uno schematico della catena di ricezione PHAROS2 è indicata in Figura 2.
title: Intraday variability of active galaxies

description: In this thesis I have undertaken a detailed investigation of the BL-Lac object: PKS B1144−379. The centimetre wavelength radio flux density of this source is known to vary on a range of time-scales from a few days up to several months. The rapid (time-scales of less than a day), apparent variability of this compact extragalactic radio source at radio wavelength is known as intraday variability (IDV). The current investigation shows conclusively that the rapid variability is the result of a propagation effect known as interstellar scintillation (ISS), which originates in the inhomogeneous interstellar medium (ISM). On the other hand, the long-term variability (months to years) suggests that the source also exhibits substantial intrinsic evolution. This project utilised high-cadence flux density monitoring of ISS with the University of Tasmania Ceduna 30-m radio telescope at a frequency of 6.7 GHz. A complementary kinematic study of the parsec-scale jet of PKSB1144−379 has been undertaken, using 8.6 GHz Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) data. The results show that the IDV of PKSB1144−379 is well explained as originating from ISS. I have fitted an annual cycle model for each of the years 2003 to 2011, the results of which suggest that the scattering screen has an anisotropic structure and that evolution of the source structure influences the interstellar scintillation pattern. Changes in the size of the microarcsecond-scale, scintillating component of the source were inferred from the yearly changes in the characteristic time-scale of scintillation. Changes in the source inferred from the scintillation measurements are broadly consistent with VLBI observations, although scintillation probes a much smaller angular scale. The scintillating component was found to be at its most compact during two flares in total flux density (2005 and 2008). I have performed a kinematic study of the parsec-scale jet of PKSB1144−379 using VLBI data obtained between 1997 and 2018. Quasi-periodic flarings with a period of ~ 3–4 years were observed. Over the 20 years interval, the average jet position angle was found to be ~150 o. The Ceduna single-dish data complements the VLBI monitoring by providing a direct comparison between changes in the size of the scintillating component (μas-scale) and the linear size of the emitting region (parsec-scale) with the existence of the jet component in the VLBI image (mas-scale). A distribution analysis technique was utilised to study the underlying processes that produced the observed data. This technique showed that changes in the modality of the flux density distribution appear to be related to intrinsic changes in source structure, and are consistent with inference from interstellar scattering observations. This approach also complements investigations of the temporal evolution of PKSB1144−379 which used interstellar scintillation and VLBI, and the combination of these techniques provides a crucial starting point for understanding the system.

description: This thesis addresses an important issue in early-stage malaria diagnosis by developing an intelligent recommendation system for symptom-based malaria diagnosis. Equipped with malaria classifiers built based on actual medical records using machine learning techniques, the system makes customised recommendations based on users’ profile and symptoms. With progressive user interface design, the system requires users to only input symptoms needed to make recommendations. These developments represent original contributions to malaria diagnosis and intelligent decision support research with both methodological and practical significance. The outcome of this research addresses knowledge gaps in malaria symptoms and contributes to Indonesia’s health sector.
