description: In this work, we introduce a game-theoretic model that assesses the cyber-security risk of cloud networks and informs security experts on the optimal security strategies. Our approach combines game theory, combinatorial optimization, and cyber-security and aims to minimize the unexpected network disruptions caused by malicious cyber-attacks under uncertainty. Methodologically, we introduce the critical node game, a simultaneous and non-cooperative attacker-defender game where each player solves a combinatorial optimization problem parametrized in the variables of the other player. Each player simultaneously commits to a defensive (or attacking) strategy with limited knowledge about the choices of their adversary. We provide a realistic model for the critical node game and propose an algorithm to compute its stable solutions, i.e., its Nash equilibria. Practically, our approach enables security experts to assess the security posture of the cloud network and dynamically adapt the level of cyber-protection deployed on the network. We provide a detailed analysis of a real-world cloud network and demonstrate the efficacy of our approach through extensive computational tests.

description: This note is concerned with a nonlinear diffusion problem of phase-field type, consisting of a parabolic system of two partial differential equations, complemented by boundary and initial conditions. The system arises from a model of two-species phase segregation on an atomic lattice and was introduced by Podio-Guidugli in Ric. Mat. 55 (2006), pp.105--118. The two unknowns are the phase parameter and the chemical potential. In contrast to previous investigations about this PDE system, we consider here a dynamic boundary condition for the phase variable that involves the Laplace-Beltrami operator and models an additional nonconserving phase transition occurring on the surface of the domain. We are interested to some asymptotic analysis and first discuss the asymptotic limit of the system as the viscosity coefficient of the order parameter equation tends to 0: the convergence of solutions to the corresponding solutions for the limit problem is proven. Then, we study the long-time behavior of the system for both problems, with positive or zero viscosity coefficient, and characterize the omega-limit set in both cases.

description: The purpose of this research is to determine whether the use of the game Kahoot can enrich students' English vocabulary. The method used in this research is a quantitative pre-experimental design. The sample in this study consisted of 19 students from Class VII B of SMP N 7 Gorontalo. The researcher collected pre-test and post-test scores for data analysis, then calculated the mean scores and percentage scores. The mean score of the students in the pre-test was 57.3, while the mean score of the students in the post-test was 72.2. Therefore, it can be concluded that the game Kahoot can improve and further enrich students' English vocabulary. The results of this research show that the working hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected.

description: We present a protocol to encode and decode arbitrary quantum states in the parity architecture with constant circuit depth using measurements, local nearest-neighbor and single-qubit operations only. While this procedure typically requires a quadratic overhead of simultaneous qubit measurements, it allows for a simple and low-depth implementation of logical multi-qubit gates in the parity encoding via code deformation. We discuss how such encoding and decoding schemes can be used to flexibly change the size and shape of the underlying code to enable a more efficient implementation of quantum gates or algorithms. We apply the new findings to the QAOA which leads to a constant depth implementation using local gates at the same optimization performance as the standard, potentially non-local, QAOA approach without the parity encoding. Furthermore, we show that our method can reduce the depth of implementing the quantum Fourier transform by a factor of two when allowing measurements.

description: The in-plane photoelectric (IPPE) effect is a recently discovered [Sci. Adv. \textbf{8}, eabi8398 (2022)] quantum phenomenon which enables efficient detection of terahertz (THz) radiation in semiconductor structures with a two-dimensional (2D) electron gas. Here we develop a theory of the IPPE effect in quasi-one-dimensional electron systems in which the width of the 2D conducting channel is so small that the transverse quantization energy is larger than the thermal energy. We calculate the THz photoresponse of such a system, as a function of the THz frequency, control gate voltages, and geometrical parameters of the detector. We show that the transverse quantization of the electron motion manifests itself in oscillating gate-voltage dependences of the photocurrent, if the THz photon energy is less than the one-dimensional quantization energy. Results of the theory are applicable to any semiconductor systems with 2D electron gases, including III-V structures, silicon-based field effect transistors, and the novel 2D layered, graphene-related materials.

description: In this paper, we study an optimal boundary control problem for a model for phase separation taking place in a spatial domain that was introduced by P.Podio-Guidugli in Ric. Mat. 55 (2006), pp.105-118. The model consists of a strongly coupled system of nonlinear parabolic differential inclusions, in  which products between the unknown functions and their time derivatives occur that are difficult to handle analytically; the system is complemented by initial and boundary conditions. For the order parameter of the phase separation process, a dynamic boundary condition involving the Laplace-Beltrami operator is assumed, which models an additional nonconserving phase transition occurring on the surface of the domain. We complement in this paper results that were established in the recent contribution appeared in Evol. Equ. Control Theory 6 (2017), pp. 35-58, by the two authors and Gianni Gilardi. In contrast to that paper, in which differentiable potentials of logarithmic type were considered, we investigate here the (more difficult) case of nondifferentiable potentials of double obstacle type. For such nonlinearities, the standard techniques of optimal control theory to establish the existence of Lagrange multipliers for the state constraints are known to fail.  To overcome  these difficulties, we employ the following line of approach: we use the results contained in the preprint arXiv:1609.07046 [math.AP] (2016), pp. 1-30, for the case of (differentiable) logarithmic potentials and perform a so-called "deep quench limit". Using compactness and monotonicity arguments, it is shown that this strategy leads to the desired first-order necessary optimality conditions for the case of (nondifferentiable) double obstacle potentials.

description: A search for the associated production of a heavy resonance with a top-quark or a top-antitop-quark pair, and decaying into a $t\bar{t}$ pair is presented. The search uses the data recorded by the ATLAS detector in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}= 13$ TeV at the Large Hadron Collider during the years 2015-2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$. Events containing exactly one electron or muon are selected. The two hadronically decaying top quarks from the resonance decay are reconstructed using jets clustered with a large radius parameter of $R=1$. The invariant mass spectrum of the two top quark candidates is used to search for a resonance signal in the range of 1.0 TeV to 3.2 TeV. The presence of a signal is examined using an approach with minimal model dependence followed by a model-dependent interpretation. No significant excess is observed over the background expectation. Upper limits on the production cross section times branching ratio at 95% confidence level are provided for a heavy $Z^\prime$ boson based on a simplified model, for $Z^\prime$ mass between 1.0 TeV and 3.0 TeV. The observed (expected) limits range from 21 (14) fb to 119 (86) fb depending on the choice of model parameters.

description: Forecasting players in sports has grown in popularity due to the potential for a tactical advantage and the applicability of such research to multi-agent interaction systems. Team sports contain a significant social component that influences interactions between teammates and opponents. However, it still needs to be fully exploited. In this work, we hypothesize that each participant has a specific function in each action and that role-based interaction is critical for predicting players' future moves. We create RolFor, a novel end-to-end model for Role-based Forecasting. RolFor uses a new module we developed called Ordering Neural Networks (OrderNN) to permute the order of the players such that each player is assigned to a latent role. The latent role is then modeled with a RoleGCN. Thanks to its graph representation, it provides a fully learnable adjacency matrix that captures the relationships between roles and is subsequently used to forecast the players' future trajectories. Extensive experiments on a challenging NBA basketball dataset back up the importance of roles and justify our goal of modeling them using optimizable models. When an oracle provides roles, the proposed RolFor compares favorably to the current state-of-the-art (it ranks first in terms of ADE and second in terms of FDE errors). However, training the end-to-end RolFor incurs the issues of differentiability of permutation methods, which we experimentally review. Finally, this work restates differentiable ranking as a difficult open problem and its great potential in conjunction with graph-based interaction models.

description: This article provides a detailed investigation into the motion of the surrounding particles around a polymer black hole in loop quantum gravity (LQG). Using effective potential, the critical bound orbits and innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO) are analyzed. The study finds that the radii and angular momentum of the critical bound orbits decrease with an increase in the parameter $A_λ$ which labels the LQG effects, while the energy and angular momentum of the ISCO also decreases with an increase in $A_λ$. Based on these findings, we then explore the periodic orbits of the polymer black hole in LQG using rational numbers composed of three integers. Our results show that the rational numbers increase with the energy of particles and decrease with the increase of angular momentum based on a classification scheme. Moreover, compared to a Schwarzschild black hole, the periodic orbits in a polymer black hole in LQG consistently have lower energy, providing a potential method for distinguishing a polymer black hole in LQG from a Schwarzschild black hole. Finally, we also examine the gravitational wave radiations of the periodic orbits of a test object which orbits a supermassive polymer black hole in LQG, which generates intricate GW waveforms that can aid in exhibiting the gravitational structure of the system.

Literature-Based Discovery by Learning Heterogeneous Bibliographic Information Networks
Creators: name: Yakub Sebastian
Publisher: name: Figshare
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Literature-based
discovery (LBD) research aims at finding effective computational methods for
predicting previously unknown connections between clusters of research papers
from disparate research areas. Existing methods encompass two general
approaches. The first approach searches for these unknown connections by
examining the textual contents of research papers. In addition to the existing
textual features, the second approach incorporates structural features of
scientific literatures, such as citation structures. These approaches, however,
have not considered research papers' latent bibliographic metadata structures
as important features that can be used for predicting previously unknown
relationships between them.

   This thesis investigates a new graph-based LBD method that
exploits the latent bibliographic metadata connections between pairs of
research papers. The heterogeneous bibliographic information network is
proposed as an efficient graph-based data structure for modeling the complex
relationships between these metadata. In contrast to previous approaches, this
method seamlessly combines textual and citation information in the form of
path-based metadata features for predicting future co-citation links between
research papers from disparate research fields. The results reported in this
thesis provide evidence that the method is effective for reconstructing the historical
literature-based discovery hypotheses.

   This thesis also investigates the effects of semantic
modeling and topic modeling on the performance of the proposed method. For
semantic modeling, a general-purpose word sense disambiguation technique is
proposed to reduce the lexical ambiguity in the title and abstract of research
papers. The experimental results suggest that the reduced lexical ambiguity did
not necessarily lead to a better performance of the method. This thesis
discusses some of the possible contributing factors to these results.

   Finally, topic modeling is used for learning the latent
topical relations between research papers. The learned topic model is
incorporated into the heterogeneous bibliographic information network graph and
allows new predictive features to be learned. The results in this thesis
suggest that topic modeling improves the performance of the proposed method by
increasing the overall accuracy for predicting the future co-citation links
between disparate research papers.

description: Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) is a realistic but challenging task that requires an agent to locate the target region using verbal and visual cues. While significant advancements have been achieved recently, there are still two broad limitations: (1) The explicit information mining for significant guiding semantics concealed in both vision and language is still under-explored; (2) The previously structured map method provides the average historical appearance of visited nodes, while it ignores distinctive contributions of various images and potent information retention in the reasoning process. This work proposes a dual semantic-aware recurrent global-adaptive network (DSRG) to address the above problems. First, DSRG proposes an instruction-guidance linguistic module (IGL) and an appearance-semantics visual module (ASV) for boosting vision and language semantic learning respectively. For the memory mechanism, a global adaptive aggregation module (GAA) is devised for explicit panoramic observation fusion, and a recurrent memory fusion module (RMF) is introduced to supply implicit temporal hidden states. Extensive experimental results on the R2R and REVERIE datasets demonstrate that our method achieves better performance than existing methods. Code is available at https://github.com/CrystalSixone/DSRG.

description: It has been known that the respiratory functions decline with age resulting in reduced quality of life. However, age-dependent molecular changes in respiratory cells such as airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells are not established. There are data suggesting that aging develops a greater inflammatory and lower anti-oxidant response compared to young, but whether these differences actually translate into loss of cellular functions is unknown. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR) play fundamental roles in intracellular protein handling during inflammation. The UPR exists to improve protein folding for proper cellular homeostasis, and prevent cell damage from the accumulation of misfolded proteins. We investigated whether ER stress and UPR is changed with age in ASM cells. ASM cells obtained from Young (12 months) and Old (30 months) F344XBN rats were used to determine the ER stress markers at baseline and after 0 to 120 hours of serum starvation using Western blotting. Expression of hallmarks of UPR, BIP, and IRE1α were measured in cell lysates obtained from Young and Old ASM cells. MTT assay was used to measure the cell viability in ASM cells. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was measured using a fluorescent assay. We found that ER stress or UPR hallmarks (BIP, IRE1) were induced in aged ASM cells when compared to Young. ROS generation was significantly higher in ASM cells from Old rats compared to Young. We also found greater cell death in aged ASM cells at 72, 96 and 120 hours upon serum starvation when compared to Young. The induction of ER stress markers correlated with reduction of cell viability in aged ASM cells. Our results indicate that basal ER stress/UPR is higher in Old ASM cells, which leads to reduced cell viability. Next steps will be to determine the importance of this UPR in modulating functional responses of ASM cells.

description: It is well-known that parity symmetry is broken in the weak interaction but conserved for Einstein's general relativity and Maxwell's electromagnetic theory. Nevertheless, parity symmetry could also be violated in the gravitational/electromagnetic sectors if a fundamental scalar field couples to the parity-violating gravitational/electromagnetic curvature terms. Such parity-violating terms, which flip signs under reversed spatial directions, can inevitably lead to a negative effective mass squared for the scalar field perturbations near nonspherically symmetric black holes and thus are expected to trigger tachyonic instability. As illustrative examples, we show that the scalar field coupled to gravitational/electromagnetic Chern-Simons terms near a Kerr-Newmann spacetime can develop tachyonic instabilities, leading to equilibrium scalar field configurations in certain parameter regions of black holes. This instability, which is an indication of the black hole scalarization process, can occur in a broad class of nonspherically symmetric black holes and parity-violating theories.

description: We conducted a user study with 19 parent-teen dyads to understand the perceived benefits and drawbacks of using a mobile app that allows them to co-manage mobile privacy, safety, and security within their families. While the primary goal of the study was to understand the use case as it pertained to parents and teens, an emerging finding from our study was that participants found value in extending app use to other family members (siblings, cousins, and grandparents). Participants felt that it would help bring the necessary expertise into their immediate family network and help protect the older adults and children of the family from privacy and security risks. However, participants expressed that co-monitoring by extended family members might cause tensions in their families, creating interpersonal conflicts. To alleviate these concerns, participants suggested more control over the privacy features to facilitate sharing their installed apps with only trusted family members.

description: A new microscopic formula for the viscosity of liquids and solids is derived rigorously from a first-principles (microscopically reversible) Hamiltonian for particle-bath atomistic motion. The derivation is done within the framework of nonaffine linear response theory. The new formula may lead to a valid alternative to the Green-Kubo approach to describe the viscosity of condensed matter systems from molecular simulations without having to fit long-time tails. Furthermore, it provides a direct link between the viscosity, the vibrational density of states of the system, and the zero-frequency limit of the memory kernel.

description: Leveraging an established exercise in negotiation education, we build a novel dataset for studying how the use of language shapes bilateral bargaining. Our dataset extends existing work in two ways: 1) we recruit participants via behavioral labs instead of crowdsourcing platforms and allow participants to negotiate through audio, enabling more naturalistic interactions; 2) we add a control setting where participants negotiate only through alternating, written numeric offers. Despite the two contrasting forms of communication, we find that the average agreed prices of the two treatments are identical. But when subjects can talk, fewer offers are exchanged, negotiations finish faster, the likelihood of reaching agreement rises, and the variance of prices at which subjects agree drops substantially. We further propose a taxonomy of speech acts in negotiation and enrich the dataset with annotated speech acts. Our work also reveals linguistic signals that are predictive of negotiation outcomes.

An Enhanced Massive Black Hole Occupation Fraction Predicted in Cluster Dwarf Galaxies

description: The occupation fraction of massive black holes (MBHs) in dwarf galaxies offers interesting insights into initial black hole seeding mechanisms and their mass assembly history, though disentangling these two effects remains challenging. Using the {\sc Romulus} cosmological simulations we examine the impact of environment on the occupation fraction of MBHs in low mass galaxies. Unlike most modern cosmological simulations, {\sc Romulus} seeds MBHs based on local gas properties, selecting dense ($n>3$ cm$^{-3}$), pristine ($Z<3e-4Z_{\odot}$), and rapidly collapsing regions in the early Universe as sites to host MBHs without assuming anything about MBH occupation as a function of galaxy stellar mass, or halo mass, {\it a priori}. The simulations predict that dwarf galaxies with M$_{\star}<10^9$ M$_{\odot}$ in cluster environments are $\sim2$ times more likely to host a MBH compared to those in the field. The predicted occupation fractions are remarkably consistent with those of nuclear star clusters. Across cluster and field environments, dwarf galaxies with earlier formation times are more likely to host a MBH. While the MBH occupation function is similar between cluster and field environments at high redshift ($z>3$), a difference arises as late-forming dwarfs -- which do not exist in the cluster environment -- begin to dominate in the field and pull the MBH occupation fraction down for low mass galaxies. Additionally, prior to in-fall some cluster dwarfs are similar to progenitors of massive, isolated galaxies, indicating that they might have grown to higher masses had they not been impeded by the cluster environment. While the population of MBHs in dwarf galaxies is already widely understood to be important for understanding MBH formation, this work demonstrates that environmental dependence is important to consider as future observations search for low mass black holes in dwarf galaxies.

description: The existence of a cosmic neutrino background has been inferred indirectly from cosmological surveys through its effect on the linear-theory evolution of primordial density perturbations, as well as from measurements of the primordial abundances of light elements. Constraints on the masses of the three neutrino species imply that at least two of them move non-relativistically today. As a consequence, non-linear evolution of density perturbations results in the formation of neutrino halos around dark-matter halos. We study whether these neutrino halos can be detected in the foreseeable future through measurements of weak gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background, thus providing, possibly, the first beyond-linear-theory signature of cosmic neutrinos.

description: The application of Artificial Intelligence to medical testing has received much attention in recent years, as evidenced by the flurry of published studies describing Artificial Intelligence software developed to solve problems in medical testing. While this recent activity is exciting, developed Artificial Intelligence medical tests ultimately can only be considered as candidates for widespread use if these tests demonstrate good performance in pivotal clinical studies. What are pivotal clinical studies for Artificial Intelligence medical tests aimed for widespread use? What are some of the major considerations and challenges for assessing performance of these tests in this context? What are some of the outstanding areas where statisticians, in collaboration with professionals outside the statistical community, could help in this endeavor? This article addresses these questions. This article is meant to appeal to a broad audience with varying levels of statistical and medical testing knowledge so that inter-disciplinary collaboration could be enhanced.
