description: Purpose: Our aim was to examine whether quality of life which was repeatedly assessed over time is related with the comprehensive assessment of quality of life (QoL) and thereby to validate a brief QoL assessment. Method: This longitudinal study used a comprehensive assessment of quality of life at baseline (QUALIDEM; 37 items) to validate an eight-item version of QUALIDEM to assess momentary quality of life which was repeatedly administered using a tablet device after baseline. In all, 150 people with dementia from 10 long-term facilities participated. Momentary quality of life and comprehensive quality of life, age, gender, activities of daily living (Barthel Index), Functional assessment staging (FAST), and Geriatric Depression (GDS) have been assessed. Results: Comprehensive and momentary quality of life showed good internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha of .86 and .88 to .93, respectively. For multiple associations of momentary quality of life with the comprehensive quality of life, momentary quality of life was significantly related to comprehensive quality of life (B = .14, CI .08/.20) and GDS (B = − .13, CI − .19/− .06). More specifically, the comprehensive QUALIDEM subscales ‘positive affect’, ‘negative affect’, ‘restlessness’, and ‘social relationships’ showed significant positive associations with momentary quality of life (p < .001). Conclusion: We found that momentary quality of life, reliably assessed by tablet, was associated with comprehensive measures of quality of life and depressive symptoms in people with dementia. Broader use of tablet-based assessments within frequent QoL measurements may enhance time management of nursing staff and may improve the care quality and communication between staff and people with dementia.

description: To meet the goal of ten-fold increase in spectral efficiency, multiuser multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO) techniques capable of achieving high spatial multiplexing gains are expected to be an essential component of fifth-generation (5G) radio access systems. This increase in multiplexing gain, made possible by equipping base stations with a large number of antennas, entails a proportional increase in channel state information (CSI) acquisition overhead. This article addresses the problem of reducing this CSI overhead by optimizing the amount of time-frequency resources allocated for channel training purposes while not affecting the quality of the associated channel estimate. First we show that in MU-MIMO, adapting pilot symbol density in the time-frequency grid should be performed both on a per resource block (RB) basis and on the basis of groups of users sharing similar channel conditions. Next, we propose a practical scheme that can perform grouping based per-RB pilot pattern adaptation. Finally, we evaluate using both analytical and numerical results the gain in spectral efficiency that can be achieved using this scheme as compared to conventional MU-MIMO systems that use fixed pilot patterns.

description: The pre-transitional disk around the Herbig Ae star HD 169142 shows a complex structure of possible ongoing planet formation in dust thermal emission from the near infrared (IR) to millimeter wavelength range. Also, a distinct set of broad emission features at 3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, 11.3, and 12.7 $μ$m, commonly attributed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), are detected prominently in the HD 169142 disk. We model the spectral energy distribution (SED) as well as the PAH emission features of the HD 169142 disk simultaneously with porous dust and astronomical-PAHs taking into account the spatially resolved disk structure. Our porous dust model consisting of three distinct components that are primarily concentrated in the inner ring, middle ring, and outer disk, respectively, provides an excellent fit to the entire SED, and the PAH model closely reproduces the observed PAH features. The accretion of ice mantles onto porous dust aggregates occurs between ~16 AU and 60 AU, which overlaps with the spatial extent (~50 AU) of the observed PAH emission features. Finally, we discuss the role of PAHs in the formation of planets possibly taking place in the HD 169142 system.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden erstmals zwei Schemata präsentiert, die, im Gegensatz zu den naturge­treuen Abbildungen bei KIRCHNER et al. (1934), den Sprossaufbau von Gladiolus palustris in abstrahierter Form anschaulich verdeutlichen. Die Angaben von KIRCHNER et al. (1934) zur Morphologie von G. palustris können im wesentlichen bestätigt werden. In Abweichung zu diesen Autoren wurden Innovationsknospen an der Sprossknolle von G. palustris jeweils nur in der Achsel des obersten persistierenden Niederblattes und der Laubblätter gefunden. Die angefertigten Vegetationsaufnahmen belegen, dass G. palustris nicht auf den Verband des Molinion caeruleae im engeren Sinne beschränkt ist, sondern auch trockenere Stand­orte besiedeln kann.

description: The solar corona is the origin of very dynamic events that are mostly produced in active regions (AR) and coronal holes (CH). The exact location of these large-scale features can be determined by applying image-processing approaches to extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) data. We here investigate the problem of segmentation of solar EUV images into ARs, CHs, and quiet-Sun (QS) images in a firm Bayesian way. On the basis of Bayes' rule, we need to obtain both prior and likelihood models. To find the prior model of an image, we used a Potts model in non-local mode. To construct the likelihood model, we combined a mixture of a Markov-Gauss model and non-local means. After estimating labels and hyperparameters with the Gibbs estimator, cellular learning automata were employed to determine the label of each pixel. We applied the proposed method to a Solar Dynamics Observatory/ Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (SDO/AIA) dataset recorded during 2011 and found that the mean value of the filling factor of ARs is 0.032 and 0.057 for CHs. The power-law exponents of the size distribution of ARs and CHs were obtained to be -1.597 and -1.508, respectively, with the maximum likelihood estimator method. When we compare the filling factors of our method with a manual selection approach and the SPoCA algorithm, they are highly compatible.

description: Context. Groups form the most abundant class of galaxy systems. They act as the principal drivers of galaxy evolution and can be used as tracers of the large-scale structure and the underlying cosmology. However, the detection of galaxy groups from galaxy redshift survey data is hampered by several observational limitations. Aims. We improve the widely used friends-of-friends (FoF) group finding algorithm with membership refinement procedures and apply the method to a combined dataset of galaxies in the local Universe. A major aim of the refinement is to detect subgroups within the FoF groups, enabling a more reliable suppression of the fingers-of-God effect. Methods. The FoF algorithm is often suspected of leaving subsystems of groups and clusters undetected. We used a galaxy sample built of the 2MRS, CF2, and 2M++ survey data comprising nearly 80000 galaxies within the local volume of 430 Mpc radius to detect FoF groups. We conducted a multimodality check on the detected groups in search for subgroups. We furthermore refined group membership using the group virial radius and escape velocity to expose unbound galaxies. We used the virial theorem to estimate group masses. Results. The analysis results in a catalogue of 6282 galaxy groups in the 2MRS sample with two or more members, together with their mass estimates. About half of the initial FoF groups with ten or more members were split into smaller systems with the multimodality check. An interesting comparison to our detected groups is provided by another group catalogue that is based on similar data but a completely different methodology. Two thirds of the groups are identical or very similar. Differences mostly concern the smallest and largest of these other groups, the former sometimes missing and the latter being divided into subsystems in our catalogue.

description: This thesis embarked on what was, from conception, an exploration for employing data-driven methodologies to propel the field of magnesium (Mg) alloy design. Unfolding across three distinct dimensions of data science, the research aimed to expedite digital alloy design via creating an open-source Mg alloy database, unveiling new insights, developing predictive models to predict mechanical properties of any arbitrary Mg alloy, introducing active learning techniques with a specific focus on Bayesian optimisation, and exploring generative adversarial networks (GANs). Collectively, these efforts have made some progress in (re) defining the paradigm of Mg alloy design.

description: Conjugate Gradient (CG) methods are one of the most effective iterative methods to solve linear equations in Hilbert spaces. So far, they have been inherently bound to these spaces since they make use of the inner product structure. In more general Banach spaces one of the most prominent iterative solvers are Landweber-type methods that essentially resemble the Steepest Descent method applied to the normal equation. More advanced are subspace methods that take up the idea of a Krylov-type search space, wherein an optimal solution is sought. However, they do not share the conjugacy property with CG methods. In this article we propose that the Sequential Subspace Optimization (SESOP) method can be considered as an extension of CG methods to Banach spaces. We employ metric projections to orthogonalize the current search direction with respect to the search space from the last iteration. For the l2-space our method then exactly coincides with the Polak-Ribière type of the CG method when applied to the normal equation. We show that such an orthogonalized search space still leads to weak convergence of the subspace method. Moreover, numerical experiments on a random matrix toy problem and 2D computerized tomography on lp-spaces show superior convergence properties over all p compared to non-orthogonalized search spaces. This especially holds for lp-spaces with small p. We see that the closer we are to an l2-space, the more we recover of the conjugacy property that holds in these spaces, i. e., as expected, the more the convergence behaves independently of the size of the truncated search space.

Die gründliche Neubearbeitung der 9. Auflage (Jäger & Werner 2001) enthält viele Neuerungen (Artenbestand, Schlüssel, Abbildungen, Zeigerwerte, Standortsangaben usw.). Die Gesamtareal-Beschreibung in den Arealdiagnosen berücksichtigt jetzt auch die Amplitude im Kontinentalitätsgefälle und die synanthrope Ausbreitung in andere Kontinente, die zugleich ein Hinweis auf die Hemerophilie ist. Die biologischen Angaben bei den Arten betreffen den Laubrhythmus, den Beblätterungstyp (Rosettenbildung), den Lebensformtyp, die Lebensdauer, die Überdauerungsorgane, die vegetative Reproduktion, die Bestäubung und andere blütenbiologische Besonderheiten, den Ausbreitungsmodus, die Lebensdauer der Samen (Samenbank) und die Keimungsbedingungen. Sachliche und terminologische Probleme bei der Charakterisierung dieser Eigenschaften werden hier diskutiert.
description: Jäger, E.J. 2001: Kommentare zur Neubearbeitung der Exkursionsflora von Deutschland, Band 4 (Kritischer Band). 1. Zur Verbreitung und Biologie der Arten. Schlechtendalia 7: 17-28. Since the 4th edition of the “Exkursionsflora von Deutschland”, vol. 4, up to the 8th one (1990, 1994), only some additions and minor corrections had been made. In the 9th edition (Jäger & Werner 2001) very great advances had to be considered that have been brought about by investigations on the taxonomy of the vascular plants that grow in Germany (including the aliens), of their changing distribution, their ecology and life history. All this new work has resulted in the complete rewriting of the book. The distribution in Germany is now described in 5 roughly defined degrees of abundance in the “Bundesländer” resp. their parts on the basis of many floristic atlasses. The data on the status (indigenous plants, established archeophytes resp. neophytes, casuals) were corrected and in some cases regionally differentiated. The general distribution is characterized in the form of “range diagnoses” that give now also the amplitude with regard to the gradient of continentality as well as the anthropogenous range expansion into other continents. This also enables one to judge to a certain degree on the hemerophily. Besides, more information to those interested in the ecology and population biology of the plants is included now, namely the indicator values and data on growth form, flower ecology, dispersal and germination. Growth form data include leaf rhythm, position and character of innovation organs, life span, clonal growth and vegetative reproduction respectively. Problems in providing such information are discussed.

description: Problems formulated in terms of logarithmic or exponential equations often use the Lambert $W$ function in their solutions. Expansions, approximations and bounds on $W$ have been derived in an effort to gain a better understanding of the relationship between equation parameters. In this paper, we focus on one of the branches of $W$, denoted as $W_{-1}$, we derive tractable upper and lower bounds and we illustrate their usefulness in identifying conditions under which user cooperation can yield a lower outage probability than non-cooperative transmission.

description: We find a geometrical description from a field theoretical setup based on Wilson's renormalization group in real space. We show that renormalization group equations of coupling parameters encode the metric structure of an emergent curved space, regarded to be an Einstein equation for the emergent gravity. Self-consistent equations of local order-parameter fields with an emergent metric turn out to describe low energy dynamics of a strongly coupled field theory, analogous to the Maxwell equation of the Einstein-Maxwell theory in the AdS$_{d+2}$/CFT$_{d+1}$ duality conjecture. We claim that the AdS$_{3}$/CFT$_{2}$ duality may be interpreted as Landau-Ginzburg theory combined with Wilson's renormalization group, which introduces vertex corrections into the Landau-Ginzburg theory in the large$-N_{s}$ limit, where $N_{s}$ is the number of fermion flavors.

description: The catalytic construction of well-defined materials from mixtures of building blocks is an important challenge in sustainable catalysis. In this regard, we have recently reported a new type of selective ring-opening terpolymerisation (ROTERP), in which three monomers (A, B, C) are selectively enchained into a (ABA′C)n sequence, but the reasons behind this unusual selectivity remained unanswered. In this study, we present a detailed investigation into the full ROTERP mechanism based on the reactivity of model intermediates, computational studies investigating >100 possible intermediates and transition states and reaction kinetics. Experimental verification of the intermediate speciation, the primary insertion steps and the side-reactions lets us show that although most insertions and side-reactions are thermodynamically viable, kinetic selection processes at the propagating chain end determine the sequence selectivity. Computational studies elucidate the special role and speciation of the lithium catalyst which during the catalytic cycle involves mono-metallic, bi-metallic and charge separated transition states comprising both coordinative activation of incoming monomers and functional groups of the polymer backbone adjacent to the propagating chain. Our study not only deciphers the mechanism of a rare selective terpolymerisation but also helps answering open questions relevant to ring-opening copolymerisation (ROCOP) and alkali-metal catalysis in general, thus guiding the design of future polymerisation catalysis for degradable materials.

description: Real-world data often exhibits a long-tailed distribution, in which head classes occupy most of the data, while tail classes only have very few samples. Models trained on long-tailed datasets have poor adaptability to tail classes and the decision boundaries are ambiguous. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a simple yet effective model, named Dual-Branch Long-Tailed Recognition (DB-LTR), which includes an imbalanced learning branch and a Contrastive Learning Branch (CoLB). The imbalanced learning branch, which consists of a shared backbone and a linear classifier, leverages common imbalanced learning approaches to tackle the data imbalance issue. In CoLB, we learn a prototype for each tail class, and calculate an inter-branch contrastive loss, an intra-branch contrastive loss and a metric loss. CoLB can improve the capability of the model in adapting to tail classes and assist the imbalanced learning branch to learn a well-represented feature space and discriminative decision boundary. Extensive experiments on three long-tailed benchmark datasets, i.e., CIFAR100-LT, ImageNet-LT and Places-LT, show that our DB-LTR is competitive and superior to the comparative methods.

description: In this manuscript we study the modeling of experimental data and its impact on the resulting integral experimental covariance and correlation matrices. By investigating a set of three low enriched and water moderated UO2 fuel rod arrays we found that modeling the same set of data with different, yet reasonable assumptions concerning the fuel rod composition and its geometric properties leads to significantly different covariance matrices or correlation coefficients. Following a Monte Carlo sampling approach, we show for nine different modeling assumptions the corresponding correlation coefficients and sensitivity profiles for each pair of the effective neutron multiplication factor keff. Within the 95% confidence interval the correlation coefficients vary from 0 to 1, depending on the modeling assumptions. Our findings show that the choice of modeling can have a huge impact on integral experimental covariance matrices. When the latter are used in a validation procedure to derive a bias, this procedure can be affected by the choice of modeling assumptions, too. The correct consideration of correlated data seems to be inevitable if the experimental data in a validation procedure is limited or one cannot rely on a sufficient number of uncorrelated data sets, e.g. from different laboratories using different setups etc.

description: Krumbiegel, A. 2001: Die Mitteldeutsche Heimatsammlung im Herbarium der Martin-Luther-Universität Halle – Umfang, Bedeutung und Anmerkungen zu einigen Sammlern. Schlechtendalia 7: 35-44. A survey of the separate Central German regional herbarium is given, which is a special part of the general herbarium of the Martin-Luther-Universität Halle. Due to its history, this special collection contains almost exclusively specimens from the Eastern German part of the Hercynian area. Special attention is paid to specimens from Sachsen-Anhalt. At present the central German regional herbarium contains about 27.000 specimens (Pteridophyta and Spermatophyta). About 12.400 of them were collected in Sachsen-Anhalt. About 300 collectors contributed plant material from Sachsen-Anhalt; however, about 70% of the specimens are from only 15 collectors and collections, respectively. Some data on the collectors concerned (if available), as well as the origin and amount of their specimens are given.

Constraining the volatile fraction of planets from transit observations

description: The determination of the abundance of volatiles in extrasolar planets is very important as it can provide constraints on transport in protoplanetary disks and on the formation location of planets. However, constraining the internal structure of low-mass planets from transit measurements is known to be a degenerate problem. Using planetary structure and evolution models, we show how observations of transiting planets can be used to constrain their internal composition, in particular the amount of volatiles in the planetary interior, and consequently the amount of gas (defined in this paper to be only H and He) that the planet harbors. We show for low-mass gas-poor planets that are located close to their central star that assuming evaporation has efficiently removed the entire gas envelope, it is possible to constrain the volatile fraction of close-in transiting planets. We illustrate this method on the example of 55 Cnc e and show that under the assumption of the absence of gas, the measured mass and radius imply at least 20 % of volatiles in the interior. For planets at larger distances, we show that the observation of transiting planets at different evolutionary ages can be used to set statistical constraints on the volatile content of planets. These results can be used in the context of future missions like PLATO to better understand the internal composition of planets.

description: This is a true story based on Jessie’s journey through substance use disorder and recovery. Jessie developed an opioid use disorder when she needed pain pills for a back injury. When Jessie became pregnant with her second child, she tried to quit cold-turkey, but started again after he was born. She went to rehab, but wasn’t given information about medications for addiction treatment or harm reduction. She returned to use and started using heroin, which led to her husband kicking her out. Jessie’s use spiraled, and she became homeless, enduring assault and loss, until she finally ended up in jail. Jessie found strength in sharing her story and is now in long term recovery, using her experiences to help others struggling with substance use disorder.

Left-right asymmetry and 750 GeV diphoton excess

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

description: We propose the left-right models based on SU(3)_C\otimes SU(M)_L \otimes SU(N)_R \otimes U(1)_X gauge symmetry for (M,N)=(3,3), (2,3), and (3,2) that address the 750 GeV diphoton excess recently reported by the LHC. The fermion contents are minimally introduced, and the generation number must match the fundamental color number to cancel anomalies and ensure QCD asymptotic freedom. The diphoton excess arises from the field that breaks the left-right symmetry spontaneously in the first model, while for the last models it emerges as an explicit violation of the left-right symmetry. The neutrino masses, flavor-changing neutral currents, and new boson searches are also discussed.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας ήταν η μελέτη του θεσμού της δικαστικής άφεσης της ποινής στην ελληνική έννομη τάξη. Αρχικά εξετάστηκε η ταυτότητα και ο δικαιολογητικός λόγος του θεσμού, καθώς και η διάκρισή του από συναφείς θεσμούς. Στη συνέχεια παρουσιάστηκε συνοπτικά ο τρόπος ρύθμισης του θεσμού από τον έλληνα νομοθέτη. Έπειτα, αναλύθηκε και αποτιμήθηκε κριτικά η νεοσύστατη γενική διάταξη του Ποινικού Κώδικα για τη δικαστική άφεση της ποινής. Ακόμη, προσεγγίστηκαν ερμηνευτικά οι κατ’ ιδίαν περιπτώσεις λόγων δικαστικής άφεσης της ποινής, τόσο στο Γενικό και Ειδικό μέρος του Ποινικού Κώδικα, όσο και σε Ειδικούς Ποινικούς Νόμους. Περαιτέρω, παρουσιάστηκαν τα θέματα της σχέσης των κατ’ ιδίαν λόγων δικαστικής άφεσης της ποινής με τη γενική ρύθμιση του Ποινικού Κώδικα, αλλά και η δυνατότητα αναλογικής εφαρμογής των ειδικών περιπτώσεων δικαστικής άφεσης της ποινής. Τέλος, εξετάστηκαν τα θέματα δικονομικού ποινικού δικαίου, τα οποία συνδέονται με το θεσμό της δικαστικής άφεσης της ποινής
description: The purpose of the present thesis was the study of the judicial remission of the penalty in the greek penal system. Initially, we examined the identity and the justifying reason of the judicial remission of the penalty, as well as it’s differentiation from relevant concepts. Subsequently, we briefly presented the regulation of the matter of the judicial remission of the penalty by the greek legislator. Afterwards, we analyzed and criticized the newly established general legislative provision of the Penal Code, concerning the judicial remission of the penalty. Furthermore, we interpreted the individual legislative provisions, concerning the judicial remission of the penalty, not only in the General and the Specific Chapter of the Penal Code, but also in Specific Criminal Laws. Moreover, we presented the subjects of the correlation between the individual legislative provisions concerning the judicial remission of the penalty and the general legislative provision of the Penal Code, as well as the possibility of the implementation of the individual legislative provisions, concerning the judicial remission of the penalty, in similar, yet not legally prescribed instances. Finally, we examined the subjects of penal procedural law, which concern the judicial remission of the penalty
