description: We present an approach to reduce the performance disparity between geographic regions without degrading performance on the overall user population for ASR. A popular approach is to fine-tune the model with data from regions where the ASR model has a higher word error rate (WER). However, when the ASR model is adapted to get better performance on these high-WER regions, its parameters wander from the previous optimal values, which can lead to worse performance in other regions. In our proposed method, we utilize the elastic weight consolidation (EWC) regularization loss to identify directions in parameters space along which the ASR weights can vary to improve for high-error regions, while still maintaining performance on the speaker population overall. Our results demonstrate that EWC can reduce the word error rate (WER) in the region with highest WER by 3.2% relative while reducing the overall WER by 1.3% relative. We also evaluate the role of language and acoustic models in ASR fairness and propose a clustering algorithm to identify WER disparities based on geographic region.

We study HNL decay channel $N\to e^{+}e^{-}ν/μ^{+}μ^{-}ν$ and show that, in addition to the constraints on the HNL's mixings with $ν_e$ or $ν_μ$, the same data also implies limits on the HNLs that mix only with $ν_τ$ and have masses in the range $380 \text{ MeV}

On Decidability of the Bisimilarity on Higher-order Processes with Parameterization

description: Higher-order processes with parameterization are capable of abstraction and application (migrated from the lambda-calculus), and thus are computationally more expressive. For the minimal higher-order concurrency, it is well-known that the strong bisimilarity (i.e., the strong bisimulation equality) is decidable in absence of parameterization. By contrast, whether the strong bisimilarity is still decidable for parameterized higher-order processes remains unclear. In this paper, we focus on this issue. There are basically two kinds of parameterization: one on names and the other on processes. We show that the strong bisimilarity is indeed decidable for higher-order processes equipped with both kinds of parameterization. Then we demonstrate how to adapt the decision approach to build an axiom system for the strong bisimilarity. On top of these results, we provide an algorithm for the bisimilarity checking.

Signatures of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations on 21cm Emission Background

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: The baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) prior to recombination should be imprinted onto the 21cm emission background from the epoch of reionization through the underlying density perturbations. Using an analytical approach for both matter power spectrum (CDM+baryons) and reionization process, we demonstrate the BAO induced signatures on the power spectrum of 21cm emission fluctuations. Future low-frequency radio telescopes such as LOFAR and MWA should be able to detect these weak BAO wiggles with an integration time of $\sim1$ year. A combination of the BAO measurements at different redshifts $z\approx1000$ (CMB), $z\approx10$ (epoch of reionization) and $z\approx0$ (clustering of galaxies) may allow one to set more robust constraints on the determinations of cosmological parameters including dark energy and its equation of state.

description: The temperatures of the plasma in the supernova remnants (SNRs) are initially very low just after the shock heating. The electron temperature (kT_{e}) increases quickly by Coulomb interaction, and then the energetic electrons gradually ionize atoms to increase the ionization temperature (kT_{i}). The observational fact is that most of the young and middle-to-old aged SNRs have lower kT_{i} than kT_{e} after the shock heating. The temperature evolution in the shell-like SNRs has been explained by this ionizing plasma (IP) scenario. On the other hand, in the last decade, a significant fraction of the mixed morphology SNRs was found to exhibit a recombining plasma (RP) with higher kT_{i} than kT_{e}. The origin and the evolution mechanism of the RP SNRs have been puzzling. To address this puzzle, this paper presents the kT_{e} and kT_{i} profiles using the observed results by follow-up Suzaku observations, and then proposes a new scenario for the temperature and morphology evolutions in the IP and RP SNRs.

description: We elaborate on the expansion of hypergeometric functions about rational parameters, where we focus mainly on the integer and half-integer case. The strategy and the basic steps of a recently developed algorithm for the expansion about half-integer parameters are described. The algorithm is implemented in the Mathematica package HypExp, by means of which we derive (partially new) results of selected multi-loop Feynman diagrams. Moreover, we give a new formulation of a conjecture in the context of a three-loop master integral in HQET.

description: As for other forms of AI, speech recognition has recently been examined with respect to performance disparities across different user cohorts. One approach to achieve fairness in speech recognition is to (1) identify speaker cohorts that suffer from subpar performance and (2) apply fairness mitigation measures targeting the cohorts discovered. In this paper, we report on initial findings with both discovery and mitigation of performance disparities using data from a product-scale AI assistant speech recognition system. We compare cohort discovery based on geographic and demographic information to a more scalable method that groups speakers without human labels, using speaker embedding technology. For fairness mitigation, we find that oversampling of underrepresented cohorts, as well as modeling speaker cohort membership by additional input variables, reduces the gap between top- and bottom-performing cohorts, without deteriorating overall recognition accuracy.

description: A new beam-combination and detection system has been installed in the Sydney University Stellar Interferometer working at the red end of the visual spectrum (wavelength range 500-950 nm) to complement the existing blue-sensitive system (wavelength range 430-520 nm) and to provide an increase in sensitivity. Dichroic beam-splitters have been introduced to allow simultaneous observations with both spectral system, albeit with some restriction on the spectral range of the longer wavelength system (wavelength range 550-760 nm). The blue system has been upgraded to allow remote selection of wavelength and spectral bandpass, and to enable simultaneous operation with the red system with the latter providing fringe-envelope tracking. The new system and upgrades are described and examples of commissioning tests presented. As an illustration of the improvement in performance the measurement of the angular diameter of the southern F supergiant delta CMa is described and compared with previous determinations.

Weak scale right-handed neutrino as pseudo-Goldstone fermion of spontaneously broken $U(1)_{L_μ-L_τ}$

description: Possibility of a Right-Handed (RH) neutrino being a Goldstone fermion of a spontaneously broken global $U(1)$ symmetry in a supersymmetric theory is considered. This fermion obtains mass from the supergravity effects leading to a RH neutrino at the electroweak scale with a mass similar to the gravitino mass. A prototype model realizing this scenario contains just three gauge singlet superfields needed for the type I seesaw mechanism. Masses of the other two neutrinos are determined by the $U(1)$ breaking scale which too can be around the electroweak scale. Light neutrinos obtain their masses in this scenario through (a) mixing with the RH neutrinos (type I seesaw), (b) mixing with neutralinos ($R$-parity breaking), (c) indirectly through mixing of the RH neutrinos with neutralinos, and (d) radiative corrections. All these contributions are described by the same set of a small number of underlying parameters and provide a very constrained and predictive framework for the neutrino masses which is investigated in detail for various choices of $U(1)$ symmetries. It is found that flavour independent $U(1)$ symmetries cannot describe neutrino masses if the soft supersymmetry breaking terms are flavour universal and one needs to consider flavour dependent symmetries. Considering a particular example of $L_μ- L_τ$ symmetry, it is shown that viable neutrino masses and mixing can be obtained without introducing any flavour violation in the soft sector. The leptonic couplings of Majoron are worked out in the model and shown to be consistent with various laboratory, astrophysical and cosmological constraints. The neutrino data allows sizeable couplings between the RH neutrinos and Higgsinos which can be used to probe the pseudo-Goldstone fermion at colliders through its displaced decay vertex.

Cell partition in aqueous polymer two phase systems

description: Experimental studies of the partition of cells and dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) liposomes in aqueous polymer two phase systems containing dextran T500 and poly-(ethylene glycol) (PEG) 8000 have been carried out. Work has been completed in five areas: (1) PEG 8000-1-¹⁴C-palmitate fatty acid ester, synthesized via a procedure involving oxalyl chloride activation of free 1- ¹⁴C-palmitic acid, was used in the development of a method to chemically assay PEG esterification and a column chromatographic procedure for the purification of PEG-alkyl derivatives. (2) A series of dextran/PEG two phase systems compounded with various amounts of sodium phosphate, pH 7.2 buffer and made isotonic with sodium chloride were developed. These systems were shown to exhibit electrostatic bulk phase potentials whose magnitude decreased with increasing sodium chloride concentration. (3) The PEG-fatty acid ester induced partition of DMPC small unilamellar liposomes was shown to increase in association with lipid gel to liquid-crystalline phase transitions induced by an increase in ambient experimental temperature or exposure of the liposomes to free linoleic acid. (4) The effects of manipulation of a wide range of experimental variables on the partition of normal human erthrocytes have been noted. The variables chosen included; system polmer lot, concentration and purity, system salt composition, PEG-fatty acid ester type, concentration and purity, cell type and concentration, cell fixation with various aldehyde fixatives and cell exposure to Vibrio cholera neuraminidase. Under appropriate conditions the logarithm of the partition coefficient K (equal to the ratio of the number of cells partitioning into the upper phase to the number of cells not partitioning into the upper phase) has been shown to be directly proportional to system electrostatic interfacial potential, interfacial bulk phase tension, and system PEG-fatty acid ester concentration. Furthermore, it has been shown that PEG-fatty acid ester induced cell partition is hydrophobic in nature and appears to be dependant on ester-cell rather than ester-system interactions. (5) Erythrocytes from patients with multiple sclerosis have been demonstrated to exhibit less upper phase affinity than normal subjects' erythrocytes in a variety of two phase systems.

description: It is theoretically shown that nanometric silver lamellar gratings present very strong visible light absorption inside the grooves, leading to electric field intensities by several orders of magnitude larger than that of the impinging light. This effect, due to the excitation of long wave vector surface plasmon polaritons with particular small penetration depth in the metal, may explain the abnormal optical absorption observed a long time ago on almost flat Ag films. Surface enhanced Raman scattering in rough metallic films could also be due to the excitation of such plasmon polaritons in the grain boundaries or notches of the films.

description: We perform a collider search for fatjet signals originating from boosted heavy neutral and charged leptons with masses between a few hundred GeV to a TeV. These heavy leptons originate from the decay of heavy gauge bosons with masses above 4 TeV in a left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model (SM), which considers a universal seesaw mechanism for the generation of all the SM fermion masses. The fatjet signals arise naturally in this model due to the presence of heavy seesaw partners of the SM fermions which decay to SM gauge bosons carrying large boosts. We employ substructure based variables lepton sub-jet fraction ($LSF$) and lepton mass drop ($LMD$) together with kinematic variables of fatjets to look for fatjet signals associated with non-isolated leptons. These variables help in reducing the SM backgrounds while retaining enough statistics for signal events, which leads to a robust discovery potential at the high-luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC).

We investigate the contribution of both interactions by partially substituting Y by Sm in as-cast polycrystalline Y$_{1-x}$Sm$_{x}$Co$_5$ (with $x$=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4) and measuring their structural, magnetic, and electrical properties through X-ray diffraction, magnetization, and electrical transport measurements.

description: The essence of the $ν=5/2$ fractional quantum Hall effect is believed to be well captured by the Moore-Read Pfaffian (or anti-Pfaffian) description. However, an important mystery regarding the formation of the Pfaffian state is the role of the three-body interaction Hamiltonian $H_3$ that produces the Pfaffian as an exact ground state and the concomitant particle-hole symmetry breaking. We show that a two-body interaction Hamiltonian $H_2$ constructed via particle-hole symmetrization of $H_3$ produces a ground state nearly exactly approximating the Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian states, respectively, in the spherical geometry. More importantly, the ground state energy of $H_2$ is shown to exhibit a ``Mexican-hat'' structure as a function of particle number in the vicinity of half filling for a given flux indicating spontaneous particle-hole symmetry breaking. We do not find any such Mexican-hat signature in the second Landau level Coulomb interaction at 5/2.

description: The fragmentation of carbon monoxide dimers induced by collisions with low energy Ar$^{9+}$ ions is investigated using the COLTRIMS technique. The presence of a neighbor molecule in the dimer serves here as a diagnostic tool to probe the lifetimes of the $\rm CO^{2+}$ molecular dications resulting from the collision. The existence of metastable states with lifetimes ranging from 2~ps to 200~ns is clearly evidenced experimentally through a sequential 3-body fragmentation of the dimer, whereas fast dissociation channels are observed in a so-called concerted 3-body fragmentation process. The fast fragmentation process leads to a kinetic energy release distribution also observed in collisions with monomer CO targets. This is found in contradiction with the conclusions of a former study attributing this fast process to the perturbation induced by the neighbor molecular ion.

description: Activists, journalists, and scholars have long raised critical questions about the relationship between diversity, representation, and structural exclusions in data-intensive tools and services. We build on work mapping the emergent landscape of corporate AI ethics to center one outcome of these conversations: the incorporation of diversity and inclusion in corporate AI ethics activities. Using interpretive document analysis and analytic tools from the values in design field, we examine how diversity and inclusion work is articulated in public-facing AI ethics documentation produced by three companies that create application and services layer AI infrastructure: Google, Microsoft, and Salesforce. We find that as these documents make diversity and inclusion more tractable to engineers and technical clients, they reveal a drift away from civil rights justifications that resonates with the managerialization of diversity by corporations in the mid-1980s. The focus on technical artifacts, such as diverse and inclusive datasets, and the replacement of equity with fairness make ethical work more actionable for everyday practitioners. Yet, they appear divorced from broader DEI initiatives and other subject matter experts that could provide needed context to nuanced decisions around how to operationalize these values. Finally, diversity and inclusion, as configured by engineering logic, positions firms not as ethics owners but as ethics allocators; while these companies claim expertise on AI ethics, the responsibility of defining who diversity and inclusion are meant to protect and where it is relevant is pushed downstream to their customers.

description: New angular diameter determinations for the bright southern F8 supergiant Delta CMa enable the bolometric emergent flux and effective temperature of the star to be determined with improved accuracy. The spectral flux distribution and bolometric flux have been determined from published photometry and spectrophotometry and combined with the angular diameter to derive the bolometric emergent flux F = (6.50 plus/minus 0.24) x 10^7 W/m^2 and the effective temperature Teff = 5818 plus/minus 53 K. The new value for the effective temperature is compared with previous interferometric and infrared flux method determinations. The accuracy of the effective temperature is now limited by the uncertainty in the bolometric flux rather than by the uncertainty in the angular diameter.

Plankton blooms of the British Columbia northern shelf : seasonal distributions and mechanisms influencing their formation
Creators: name: Perry, Richard Ian
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The first description is presented of spatial and seasonal distributions of plankton blooms, and physical oceanographic conditions underlying their formation, on the British Columbia northern shelf. This region includes Queen Charlotte Strait and Sound, Hecate Strait, Dixon Entrance and their contiguous waters. Its biological oceanographic characteristics are virtually unknown, yet it has valuable petroleum and fishery resources. Samples were collected between March 1978 and August 1980 using a coastal oil tanker as a ship of opportunity. Fourteen cruises were conducted, concentrated during spring and summer. Samples for salinity, nutrients, phytoplankton composition and pigments were collected from the sea water intake system (depth 3 m) while underway. Zooplankton were collected with a Miller sampler towed from the stern; temperature profiles were obtained with an XBT system. Light penetration and vertical mixing characteristics were the principal physical properties leading to initiation of phytoplankton blooms in spring and summer. The spring (diatom) bloom was predicted by a critical - mixed depth model calculated from historical data. Summer blooms were predicted by a tidal front model, which compares tidal velocities with water depth. Bathymetry is the common feature of these two mechanisms, limiting the mixed depth in spring and maintaining tidal mixing in shallow regions during summer. The spring bloom progressed northward with increasing irradiance, occurring during February - March in the Strait of Georgia and during May in Dixon Entrance. However, it was predicted and observed earlier in Hecate Strait (April), where a shallow shelf limits the mixed depth, than in more southerly Queen Charlotte Sound. The bloom in Queen Charlotte Sound first developed along its southeastern coast, apparently due to runoff-related stratification. On the scale of sampling, zooplankton blooms in spring occurred in the same areas as phytoplankton. During summer, observations confirmed low biomass (flagellates) and well-mixed conditions in shallow western Hecate Strait, and high biomass (diatoms) and stratified conditions on its eastern side. However, mean mixed layer light intensities were similar, and near-surface nutrient concentrations low, on both sides of the strait. Phytoplankton on the shallow side were probably limited by rates of nutrient resupply, while the eastern side received nutrients from upwelling or sporadic mixing by storms. This may distinguish the effect of tidal mixing in shelf seas and straits, with advection of nutrients to the mixed region of straits reduced by the shallow bottom and adjacent land boundaries.

description: Dynamics of SU(N_c) Yang--Mills theories with N_f adjoint Weyl fermions is quite different from that of SU(N_c) gauge theories with fundamental quarks. The symmetry breaking pattern is SU(N_f) --> SO(N_f). The corresponding sigma model supports Skyrmions whose microscopic identification is not immediately clear. We address this issue as well as the issue of the Skyrmion stability. The case of N_f=2 had been considered previously. Here we discuss N_f >= 3. We discuss the coupling between the massless Goldstone bosons and massive composite fermions (with mass O(N_c^0)) from the standpoint of the low-energy chiral sigma model. We derive the Wess--Zumino--Novikov--Witten term and then determine Skyrmion statistics. We also determine their fermion number (mod 2) and observe an abnormal relation between the statistics and the fermion number. This explains the Skyrmion stability. In addition, we consider another microscopic theory -- SO(N_c) Yang--Mills with N_f Weyl fermions in the vectorial representation -- which has the same chiral symmetry breaking pattern and the same chiral Lagrangian. We discuss distinctive features of these two scenarios.

description: Executive Order (EO) 14028, "Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity", 12 May 2021, directs the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to recommend minimum standards for software testing within 60 days. This document describes eleven recommendations for software verification techniques as well as providing supplemental information about the techniques and references for further information. It recommends the following techniques: Threat modeling to look for design-level security issues Automated testing for consistency and to minimize human effort Static code scanning to look for top bugs Heuristic tools to look for possible hardcoded secrets Use of built-in checks and protections "Black box" test cases Code-based structural test cases Historical test cases Fuzzing Web app scanners, if applicable Address included code (libraries, packages, services) The document does not address the totality of software verification, but instead, recommends techniques that are broadly applicable and form the minimum standards. The document was developed by NIST in consultation with the National Security Agency (NSA). Additionally, we received input from numerous outside organizations through papers submitted to a NIST workshop on the Executive Order held in early June 2021, discussion at the workshop, as well as follow up with several of the submitters.

Virtual Processes and Superradiance in Spin-Boson Models

description: We consider spin-boson models composed by a single bosonic mode and an ensemble of $N$ identical two-level atoms. The situation where the coupling between the bosonic mode and the atoms generates real and virtual processes is studied, where the whole system is in thermal equilibrium with a reservoir at temperature $β^{-1}$. Phase transitions from ordinary fluorescence to superradiant phase in three different models is investigated. First a model where the coupling between the bosonic mode and the $j-th$ atom is via the pseudo-spin operator $σ^{,z}_{(j)}$ is studied. Second, we investigate the generalized Dicke model, introducing different coupling constants between the single mode bosonic field and the environment, $g_{1}$ and $g_{2}$ for rotating and counter-rotating terms, respectively. Finally it is considered a modified version of the generalized Dicke model with intensity-dependent coupling in the rotating terms. In the first model the zero mode contributes to render the canonical entropy a negative quantity for low temperatures. The last two models presents phase transitions, even when only Hamiltonian terms which generates virtual processes are considered.

description: Recently, chiral structured illumination microscopy has been proposed to image fluorescent chiral domains at sub-wavelength resolution. Chiral structured illumination microscopy is based on the combination of structured illumination microscopy, fluorescence-detected circular dichroism, and optical chirality engineering. Since circular dichroism of natural chiral molecules is typically weak, the differential fluorescence is also weak and can be easily buried by the noise, hampering the fidelity of the reconstructed images. In this work, we systematically study the impact of the noise on the quality and resolution of chiral domain images obtained by chiral SIM. We analytically describe the signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed chiral SIM image in the Fourier domain and verify our theoretical calculations with numerical demonstrations. Accordingly, we discuss the feasibility of chiral SIM in different experimental scenarios and propose possible strategies to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio for samples with weak circular dichroism.

description: We attribute deviations of the muon and electron magnetic moments from the theoretical predictions to the presence of an additional $U(1)^\prime$ supersymmetric model. We interpret the discrepancies between the muon and electron anomalous magnetic moments to be due to the presence of non-universal $U(1)^\prime$ charges. In a minimally extended model, we show that requiring both deviations to be satisfied imposes constraints on the spectrum of the model, in particular on dark matter candidates and slepton masses and ordering. Choosing three benchmarks with distinct dark matter features, we study implications of the model at colliders, concentrating on variables that can distinguish our non-universal scenario from other $U(1)^\prime$ implementations.

description: Economic inequalities referring to specific regions are crucial in deepening spatial heterogeneity. Income surveys are generally planned to produce reliable estimates at countries or macroregion levels, thus we implement a small area model for a set of inequality measures (Gini, Relative Theil and Atkinson indexes) to obtain microregion estimates. Considering that inequality estimators are unit-interval defined with skewed and heavy-tailed distributions, we propose a Bayesian hierarchical model at area level involving a Beta mixture. An application on EU-SILC data is carried out and a design-based simulation is performed. Our model outperforms in terms of bias, coverage and error the standard Beta regression model. Moreover, we extend the analysis of inequality estimators by deriving their approximate variance functions.
