description: In this letter, a methodology is proposed to improve the scattering powers obtained from model-based decomposition using Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) data. The novelty of this approach lies in utilizing the intrinsic information in the off-diagonal elements of the 3$\times$3 coherency matrix $\mathbf{T}$ represented in the form of complex correlation coefficients. Two complex correlation coefficients are computed between co-polarization and cross-polarization components of the Pauli scattering vector. The difference between modulus of complex correlation coefficients corresponding to $\mathbf{T}^{\mathrm{opt}}$ (i.e. the degree of polarization (DOP) optimized coherency matrix), and $\mathbf{T}$ (original) matrices is obtained. Then a suitable scaling is performed using fractions \emph{i.e.,} $(T_{ii}^{\mathrm{opt}}/\sum\limits_{i=1}^{3}T_{ii}^{\mathrm{opt}})$ obtained from the diagonal elements of the $\mathbf{T}^{\mathrm{opt}}$ matrix. Thereafter, these new quantities are used in modifying the Yamaguchi 4-component scattering powers obtained from $\mathbf{T}^{\mathrm{opt}}$. To corroborate the fact that these quantities have physical relevance, a quantitative analysis of these for the L-band AIRSAR San Francisco and the L-band Kyoto images is illustrated. Finally, the scattering powers obtained from the proposed methodology are compared with the corresponding powers obtained from the Yamaguchi \emph{et. al.,} 4-component (Y4O) decomposition and the Yamaguchi \emph{et. al.,} 4-component Rotated (Y4R) decomposition for the same data sets. The proportion of negative power pixels is also computed. The results show an improvement on all these attributes by using the proposed methodology.

description: The space-time structure of the Higgs boson decay are carefully studied with the HBT correlation method using e$^+$e$^-$ collision events produced through Monte Carlo generator PYTHIA 8.2 at $\sqrt{s}$=250GeV. The Higgs boson jets (Higgs-jets) are identified by H-tag tracing. The measurement of the Higgs boson radius and decay lifetime are derived from HBT correlation of its decay final state pions inside Higgs-jets in the e$^+$e$^-$ collisions events with an upper bound of $R_H \le 1.03\pm 0.05$ fm and $τ_H \le (1.29\pm0.15)\times 10^{-7}$ fs. This result is consistent with CMS data.

description: Influence maximization is the problem of selecting a set of influential users in the social network. Those users could adopt the product and trigger a large cascade of adoptions through the " word of mouth " effect. In this paper, we propose two evidential influence maximization models for Twitter social network. The proposed approach uses the theory of belief functions to estimate users influence. Furthermore, the proposed influence estimation measure fuses many influence aspects in Twitter, like the importance of the user in the network structure and the popularity of user's tweets (messages). In our experiments, we compare the proposed solutions to existing ones and we show the performance of our models.

description: We study four types of one-point torus blocks arising in the large central charge regime. According to different limits of conformal dimensions we distinguish between the global block, the light block, the heavy-light block, and the linearized classical block. We show that they are not independent and connected to each other by various links. We find that the global, light, and heavy-light blocks correspond to three different contractions of the Virasoro algebra. Also, we formulate the c-recursive representation of the one-point torus blocks which is relevant in the semiclassical approximation.

description: Channelled fragmented downflows are ubiquitous in magnetized atmospheres, and have been recently addressed from an observation after a solar eruption. We study the possible back-effect of the magnetic field on the propagation of confined flows. We compare two 3D MHD simulations of dense supersonic plasma blobs downfalling along a coronal magnetic flux tube. In one, the blobs move strictly along the field lines; in the other, the initial velocity of the blobs is not perfectly aligned to the magnetic field and the field is weaker. The aligned blobs remain compact while flowing along the tube, with the generated shocks. The misaligned blobs are disrupted and merged by the chaotic shuffling of the field lines, and structured into thinner filaments; Alfven wave fronts are generated together with shocks ahead of the dense moving front. Downflowing plasma fragments can be chaotically and efficiently mixed if their motion is misaligned to field lines, with broad implications, e.g., disk accretion in protostars, coronal eruptions and rain.

description: In this paper, we study three asymptotic regimes that can be applied to ranking and selection (R&S) problems with general sample distributions. These asymptotic regimes are constructed by sending particular problem parameters (probability of incorrect selection, smallest difference in system performance that we deem worth detecting) to zero. We establish asymptotic validity and efficiency of the corresponding R&S procedures in each regime. We also analyze the connection among different regimes and compare the pre-limit performances of corresponding algorithms.

In order to prove our results, we make use of certain recent reverse Copson- and Leindler-type inequalities.

description: Yao graphs are geometric spanners that connect each point of a given point set to its nearest neighbor in each of k cones drawn around it. Yao graphs were introduced to construct minimum spanning trees in d dimensional spaces. Moreover, they are used for instance in topology control in wireless networks. An optimal 𝒪(n log n)-time algorithm to construct Yao graphs for a given point set has been proposed in the literature but - to the best of our knowledge - never been implemented. Instead, algorithms with a quadratic complexity are used in popular packages to construct these graphs. In this paper we present the first implementation of the optimal Yao graph algorithm. We engineer the data structures required to achieve the 𝒪(n log n) time bound and detail algorithmic adaptations necessary to take the original algorithm from theory to practice. We propose a priority queue data structure that separates static and dynamic events and might be of independent interest for other sweepline algorithms. Additionally, we propose a new Yao graph algorithm based on a uniform grid data structure that performs well for medium-sized inputs. We evaluate our implementations on a wide variety of synthetic and real-world datasets and show that our implementation outperforms current publicly available implementations by at least an order of magnitude.

description: We study the emergence of anisotropic (Bianchi IX) inflationary universes with no-boundary conditions in the path integral approach to quantum gravity. In contrast to previous work, we find no evidence for any limit to how large the anisotropies can become, although for increasing anisotropies the shape of the instantons becomes significantly different from Hawking's original no-boundary instanton. In all cases an inflationary phase is reached, with the anisotropies decaying away. Larger anisotropies are associated with a much larger imaginary part of the action, implying that the highly anisotropic branches of the wavefunction are heavily suppressed. Interestingly, the presence of anisotropies causes the wavefunction to become classical much more slowly than for isotropic inflationary universes. We derive the associated scaling of the WKB classicality conditions both numerically and analytically.

description: Video-sharing social media like YouTube provide access to diverse cultural products from all over the world, making it possible to test theories that the Web facilitates global cultural convergence. Drawing on a daily listing of YouTube's most popular videos across 58 countries, we investigate the consumption of popular videos in countries that differ in cultural values, language, gross domestic product, and Internet penetration rate. Although online social media facilitate global access to cultural products, we find this technological capability does not result in universal cultural convergence. Instead, consumption of popular videos in culturally different countries appears to be constrained by cultural values. Cross-cultural convergence is more advanced in cosmopolitan countries with cultural values that favor individualism and power inequality.

description: There is growing observational evidence of dust coagulation in the dense filaments within molecular clouds. Infrared observations show that the dust grains size distribution gets shallower and the relative fraction of small to large dust grains decreases as the local density increases. Ultraviolet (UV) observations show that the strength of the 2175 Å feature, the so-called UV bump, also decreases with cloud density. In this work, we apply the technique developed for the Taurus study to the Orion molecular cloud and confirm that the UV bump decreases over the densest cores of the cloud as well as in the heavily UV irradiated λ Orionis shell. The study has been extended to the Rosette cloud with uncertain results given the distance (1.3 kpc).

description: We review possible mechanisms for energy transfer based on 'rare' or 'non-perturbative' effects, in physical systems that present a many-body localized phenomenology. The main focus is on classical systems, with or without quenched disorder. For non-quantum systems, the breakdown of localization is usually not regarded as an issue, and we thus aim at identifying the fastest channels for transport. Next, we contemplate the possibility of applying the same mechanisms in quantum systems, including disorder free systems (e.g. Bose-Hubbard chain), disordered many-body localized systems with mobility edges at energies below the edge, and strongly disordered lattice systems in $d>1$. For quantum mechanical systems, the relevance of these considerations for transport is currently a matter of debate.

Play-Oriented Pre-Primary Curriculum in Bangladesh: A Socio-Cultural Analysis of the Changing Pattern of Learning Practices
Creators: name: NURUN NAHAR CHOWDHURY
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Education

description: This study investigates the impacts of recently introduced play-oriented pre-primary curriculum (PPC) on the cultural nature of participation of young children, parents, teachers and government officials. It is conducted in three different settings in rural Bangladesh: pre-primary classrooms, with families and at teacher training centres. This study employed three multifaceted prisms—assembly-line instruction (ALI), guided repetition (GR) and learning by observation and pitching in (LOPI) as its analytical base (Rogoff et al., 2007; 2015). Findings suggest a new framework, termed guided learning encouraging participation, initiatives and contribution (GLEPIC)indicating new patterns of play-oriented teaching–learning practices in terms of perceptions about play, teaching–learning and the relationship between teachers and learners and contribute to new theorising of non-Western understandings of play-oriented early childhood curriculum approaches.

description: Three dimensional (3D) topology optimization problems always involve huge numbers of Degrees of Freedom (DOFs) in finite element analysis (FEA) and design variables in numerical optimization, respectively. This will inevitably lead to large computational efforts in the solution process. In the present paper, an efficient and explicit topology optimization approach which can reduce not only the number of design variables but also the number of degrees of freedom in FEA is proposed based on the Moving Morphable Voids (MMVs) solution framework. This is achieved by introducing a set of geometry parameters (e.g., control points of B-spline surfaces) to describe the boundary of a structure explicitly and removing the unnecessary DOFs from the FE model at every step of numerical optimization. Numerical examples demonstrate that the proposed approach does can overcome the bottleneck problems associated with a 3D topology optimization problem in a straightforward way and enhance the solution efficiency significantly.

description: Morocco is one of the major olive-producing countries with an annual production of 1.56 million tonnes, part of which is dedicated to olive oil production. This important production generates, in addition to oil as the main product, a significant amount of waste (pomace and olive mill wastewater). The latter, when released in large quantities into the natural environment, cause fatal pollution. A suitable valuation of this waste will allow a clean and sustainable production for the sector. This work consists of composting olive pomace from the traditional system with two structural agents (poultry droppings and cattle manure) and comparing the two composts in terms of composting process parameters (pH, electrical conductivity, organic matter temperature, etc.), organic matter dynamics and compost quality, with manual aeration of the compost. Despite the high humidity level of the used pomace (80%), the adopted composting conditions have been effective in reducing high levels of organic matter and therefore organic carbon, as well as reducing the extreme phytotoxicity of the pomace. The experiment showed that the stabilization process in all the four treatments studied is comparable, and the final quality of the composts was adequate for agricultural use.

While efforts have been underway for developing effective monitoring and risk management measures, it still remains a challenge in countries like Myanmar where access to observed and near real time data is a constraint. This study therefore, tries to derive correlations between MODIS Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station (CHIRPS) data to see if some empirical relationships can be established. Statistical analysis showed that strong correlation (R² = 0.74 and 0.82) exist between NDVI and CHIRPS data indicating that vegetation stress conditions observed in the Dry Zone of Myanmar is due to insufficient precipitation conditions. The analysis also showed that the region had faced with three extreme conditions during the period from 1981-2015 with 2014 and 2015 being the extreme event. It further concluded that NDVI and CHIRPS could provide near real time information on vegetation stress situations of the Dry Zone of Myanmar.

description: In this work, we present a data poisoning attack that confounds machine learning models without any manipulation of the image or label. This is achieved by simply leveraging the most confounding natural samples found within the training data itself, in a new form of a targeted attack coined "Mole Recruitment." We define moles as the training samples of a class that appear most similar to samples of another class, and show that simply restructuring training batches with an optimal number of moles can lead to significant degradation in the performance of the targeted class. We show the efficacy of this novel attack in an offline setting across several standard image classification datasets, and demonstrate the real-world viability of this attack in a continual learning (CL) setting. Our analysis reveals that state-of-the-art models are susceptible to Mole Recruitment, thereby exposing a previously undetected vulnerability of image classifiers.

description: The main goal of the present work is to estimate the effects of plasma environment on the atomic parameters associated with the K-vacancy states in highly charged iron ions within the astrophysical context of accretion disks around black holes. In order to do this, multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock computations have been carried out by considering a time averaged Debye-Hückel potential for both the electron-nucleus and electron-electron interactions. In the present paper, a first sample of results related to the ionization potentials, the K-thresholds, the transition energies and the radiative emission rates is reported for the ions Fe 23+ and Fe 24+ .

description: In this work, the magneto-resistance (MR) of ultra-thin WTe2/BN heterostructures far away from electron-hole equilibrium is measured. The change of MR of such devices is found to be determined largely by a single tunable parameter, i.e. the amount of imbalance between electrons and holes. We also found that the magnetoresistive behavior of ultra-thin WTe2 devices is well-captured by a two-fluid model. According to the model, the change of MR could be as large as 400,000%, the largest potential change of MR among all materials known, if the ultra-thin samples are tuned to neutrality when preserving the mobility of 167,000 cm2V-1s-1 observed in bulk samples. Our findings show the prospects of ultra-thin WTe2 as a variable magnetoresistance material in future applications such as magnetic field sensors, information storage and extraction devices, and galvanic isolators. The results also provide important insight into the electronic structure and the origin of the large MR in ultra-thin WTe2 samples.

description: The purpose of the work is to study the level of total IgE and to determine IgE antibodies to food allergens in blood serum in children with atopic dermatitis. 68 children with atopic der-matitis of varying severity were examined in the study. In the course of our research we have used allergy tests (skin prick tests, Shelley’s test). We have revealed IgE and IgE antibodies to food allergens (cow's milk, egg protein, fish, tangerine) in the blood serum by enzyme immunoassay. In children with atopic dermatitis IgE-antibodies were detected to food allergens and also significantly more elevated determined level of total IgE, which confirms the IgE-mediat-ed allergic reaction mechanism in this disease.

Black hole spin of Cyg X-1 determined from the softest state ever observed

description: We show the softest ever spectrum from Cyg~X-1, detected in 2013 with Suzaku. This has the weakest high energy Compton tail ever seen from this object, so should give the cleanest view of the underlying disk spectrum, and hence the best determination of black hole spin from disk continuum fitting. Using the standard model of a disk with simple non-thermal Comptonisation to produce the weak high energy tail gives a high spin black hole. However, we get a significantly better fit by including an additional, low temperature thermal Comptonisation component, which allows a much lower black hole spin. Corroboration of the existence of an additional Compton component comes from the frequency dependent hard lags seen in the rapid variability in archival high/soft state data. These can not be explained if the continuum is a single non-thermal Comptonisation component, but are instead consistent with a radially stratified, multi zone Comptonisation spectrum, where the spectrum is softer further from the black hole. A complex multi-zone Comptonisation continuum is required to explain both spectra and timing together, and this has an impact on the derived black hole spin.

description: High purity Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) crystals are produced starting from elemental Zn and Se to be used for the search of the neutrinoless double beta decay (0νDBD) of 82Se. In order to increase the number of emitting nuclides, enriched 82Se is used. Dedicated production lines for the synthesis and conditioning of the Zn82Se powder in order to make it suitable for crystal growth were assembled compliant with radio-purity constraints specific to rare event physics experiments. Besides routine check of impurities concentration, high sensitivity measurements are made for radio-isotope concentrations in raw materials, reactants, consumables, ancillaries and intermediary products used for ZnSe crystals production. Indications are given on the crystals perfection and how it is achieved. Since very expensive isotopically enriched material (82Se) is used, a special attention is given for acquiring the maximum yield in the mass balance of all production stages. Production and certification protocols are presented and resulting ready-to-use Zn82Se crystals are described.
