Approximability of modularity clustering and related results
Creators: name: Desai, Devendra J.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: For the problem of Modularity Clustering, first introduced by Newman and Girvan in 2004, we are given a graph and the goal is to partition the vertex set into an unknown number of clusters such that we maximize a certain objective function which evaluates the fitness of the clusters. This fitness function measures the statistically surprising distribution of edges between different clusters and in the clusters themselves. Despite having found widespread popularity in the fields of biology and social sciences, this problem is known to be NP-hard and up till the work in this thesis, only heuristics were known.    In this thesis, we initiate a study of the approximability of modularity clustering. We give the first approximation algorithms and the first hardness of approximation results for the problem. In doing so, we employ various techniques like semidefinite programming and the regularity lemma. Our main results in- clude a factor 1.0009 inapproximability for dense graphs and a logarithmic (in the degree) approximation for sparse graphs. We also extend some of these results to directed and weighted graphs and the more general problem of Max-cut where negative edge weights are allowed.

Homeostatic epistemology
Creators: name: Devitt, Susannah Kate
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: How do agents with limited cognitive capacities flourish in informationally impoverished or unexpected circumstances? Aristotle argued that human flourishing emerged from knowing about the world and our place within it. If he is right, then the virtuous processes that produce knowledge, best explain flourishing. Influenced by Aristotle, virtue epistemology defends an analysis of knowledge where beliefs are evaluated for their truth and the intellectual virtue or competences relied on in their creation. However, human flourishing may emerge from how degrees of ignorance are managed in an uncertain world. Perhaps decision-making in the shadow of knowledge best explains human wellbeing—a Bayesian approach? In this dissertation I argue that a hybrid of virtue and Bayesian epistemologies explains human flourishing—what I term homeostatic epistemology.   Homeostatic epistemology supposes that an agent has a rational credence p when p is the product of reliable processes aligned with the norms of probability theory; whereas an agent knows that p when a rational credence p is the product of reliable processes such that: 1) p meets some relevant threshold for belief (such that the agent acts as though p were true and indeed p is true), 2) p coheres with a satisficing set of relevant beliefs and, 3) the relevant set of beliefs is coordinated appropriately to meet the integrated aims of the agent.   Homeostatic epistemology recognizes that justificatory relationships between beliefs are constantly changing to combat uncertainties and to take advantage of predictable circumstances. Contrary to holism, justification is built up and broken down across limited sets like the anabolic and catabolic processes that maintain homeostasis in the cells, organs and systems of the body. It is the coordination of choristic sets of reliably produced beliefs that create the greatest flourishing given the limitations inherent in the situated agent.

In Maʿadi, near Cairo
Creators: name: DeVries, Annalise
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Egyptian Delta Land and Investment Company (Delta Land) broke ground on Maʿadi, a new residential development seven miles south of Cairo. The company organized Maʿadi as a town-and-country space, offering well-to-do residents the leisure of the country only a short train ride from the city center. Miniaturizing Haussmann’s Paris, the space included a series of wide, tree-lined boulevards that met at garden-filled midans (Arabic for roundabout). Residents then built large villas and spacious gardens along the town’s smaller streets. Over the course of the first half of the twentieth century, these places became home to a mixture of former British colonial civil servants, European commercial expatriates, influential Egypt-born Jews, and upper middle-class Egyptians. Asking how the establishment of Maʿadi was possible, who supported Delta Land’s venture, and what kind of social life and culture formed within the town, Maʿadi’s history alters the focus of the Egypt’s early-twentieth century political narrative. More than a story of growing Egyptian national independence in the face of British imperial decline, Maʿadi’s history identifies a shared society and culture among the country’s multinational elite, which continued to flourish despite major political changes. While the country saw two world wars and a nationwide revolution in the first half of the twentieth century, Maʿadi continued to thrive under Delta Land’s leadership. Identifying the means of the town’s ongoing growth, Maʿadi’s history locates in a single place British imperial compromise, ongoing Ottoman influence, Europeans rivalries over Egypt, and Egyptian nationalists’ use of this multinational context when claiming independence. Significant change only came to Maʿadi in the years following the Second World War, when a military coup ousted Egypt’s king and gradually looked to reorient the country’s geo-political relationships. Even then revolution came to Maʿadi gradually, as residents organized to preserve the social and cultural norms associated with the town. As Egypt’s new regime embraced a socialist Pan-Arab ideology, however, Maʿadi could not abide in its earlier form. With Egypt’s place in the world changing, Maʿadi was absorbed into the sprawl of greater Cairo and increasingly appeared as the relic of a former elite who had lost their place of influence.

description: This document is an update to the Geosciences Community Roadmap published in 2021. It presents the needs of the Swiss geosciences community in terms of future national and international research infrastructures.

 

Together with similar Community Roadmaps in other disciplines, it is an element of the four-year process leading to the development of the Swiss Roadmap for Research Infrastructures 2027 to be written by the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) in view of the ERI Dispatch 2029–2032 to the Federal Council. The role of these ‘bottom-up’ inputs is to serve as an important basis for the strategic planning of the higher education institutions on new or major upgrades to national infrastructures and to inform and support SERI during its decision-making process on Swiss participation in international research infrastructure networks and organisations.

The effects of candidate appearance on information search and political behavior in political campaigns

description: The goal of this project is to examine the role that various aspects of a political candidate’s physical appearance play in influencing voters’ information search patterns, candidate evaluations, and ultimate vote choice. In particular, it considers the effects of a candidate’s gender, race/ethnicity, and perceived competence on the amount of information accessed about a candidate, affect toward a candidate, personality trait ratings, and vote decisions. Using two separate computer-based experiments, both of which utilize the Dynamic Process Tracing Environment (DPTE), this dissertation seeks both to determine how an information processing perspective can enhance our knowledge of how candidate appearance influences these variables, and to provide a better understanding of how multiple appearance cues may influence voting behavior simultaneously. It looks first at the relationship between information search and race and gender-based prejudice and finds that the amount of information that subjects search for during a simulated presidential campaign is affected by both the race/gender of the candidates in the race, as well as by the levels of race and gender-based prejudice expressed by the subjects. Those subjects who are high in prejudice search for less information about female and minority candidates, which, in turn, leads to a lower likelihood of voting for those candidates. Second, it considers the simultaneous effects of race, gender, and a candidate’s perceived competence based on automatic trait inferences. I find that incompetent looking candidates are at an electoral disadvantage, but that race and gender also interact with this cue such that incompetent looking female candidates are especially disadvantaged. Finally, I find that an incompetent appearance cue can be overcome when the substantive information available about an incompetent candidate contradicts that cue by portraying him or her as politically competent. In sum, I find that appearance cues matter in a voter’s decision-making process, but that the other information available during a political campaign can, at times, serve to either mediate the relationship between appearance and voting behavior or to temper it outright.
The role of glutamine in the function and cytokine secretion of 3T3-L1 adipocytes and RAW264.& macrophages

description: Obesity is associated with many medical disorders including type 2 diabetes and certain cancers. During obesity there is increased infiltration of classically activated (M1) macrophages into adipose tissue which is associated with the development of insulin resistance and eventually type 2 diabetes. Macrophages require glutamine to survive but have limited expression of glutamine synthetase (GS), the only enzyme capable of producing glutamine de novo, thus glutamine must be obtained from external sources. During obesity blood flow is limited in adipose tissue hence bringing to question where M1 macrophages obtain their glutamine. Mature adipocytes express high amounts of GS and are known to release glutamine. Therefore glutamine from adipocytes may contribute to the infiltration of M1 macrophages into adipose tissue during obesity.  We found that murine RAW264.& macrophages express low levels of GS and have an absolute requirement for large amounts of exogenous glutamine for proliferation and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines MCP-1 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1) and MIP-1α (macrophage inflammatory protein-1α). To determine if adipocyte-derived glutamine could support macrophage viability and function, mature 3T3-L1 murine adipocytes and RAW264.& cells were cocultured for up to 48h in media without added glutamine and with a chemical inhibitor of GS. RAW264.& cells survived and proliferated in the absence of exogenous glutamine when cocultured with mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes but did not survive in the absence of added glutamine when cocultured with 3T3-L1 preadipocytes or with mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes where GS was inhibited. In addition, when mature 3T3-L1 cells were cocultured with RAW264.& cells in the absence of glutamine and with the GS inhibitor, the secretion of RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted) and Eotaxin-1 were negatively affected while secretion of MCP-1 was slightly affected. The lower secretion of RANTES, Eotaxin-1 and MCP-1 may have been due to RAW264.& cells in cocultures dying in the absence of glutamine. These findings support the notion that glutamine produced by adipocytes may contribute to the viability and cytokine secretion of adipose tissue macrophages during obesity which may lead to the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

description: The object of this research was to determine the effects steel and polypropylene fibers have on the fresh and mechanical properties of a lightweight self consolidating concrete (LWSCC). Secondary objectives were to determine which of the two chosen fibers yield superior results, and to determine approximate optimal fiber content by volume.  A LWSCC mix was developed for the control mix using a design procedure based on the volumetric method. Two fibers, steel and polypropylene, were chosen for this research. Each fiber type had two different densities by volume creating a total of five mixes including the control. All mixes were tested for workability, passing ability, density, compressive strength, elastic modulus, splitting tension, and flexural strength. All tests were performed in accordance with the appropriate ASTM specification.  Overall, fiber specimens performed better than the control in splitting tension, compression, and flexural strength testing since they could hold a residual load. Effect on modulus of elasticity and workability was minimal. Fibers did increase the density of the samples; however the equilibrium density of all mixes fell into acceptable ranges. Passing ability was greatly affected by the addition of fibers; however simple adjustments in mix proportion could easily resolve this issue. The steel samples outperformed the polypropylene samples. More specifically the Steel30 samples produced the best results.

Carbon-carbon fragmentation : history and new applications in complex terpene synthesis
Creators: name: Drahl, Michael A.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: C-C fragmentation is both powerful and elegant. Capable of stereospecifically introducing sp1-sp1, sp2-sp2, and sp2-sp-sp2 bond connectivity, it is the key transformation that allows all of the chemistry described herein. This dissertation begins with a comprehensive review of C-C fragmentation, which notably uncovers the lost origins of this transformation. Extensions of its utility in complex terpene synthesis are presented next. An integrated routing strategy was realized in the divergent enantioselective synthesis of the core ring systems of the xeniolide, xenibellol, and florlide natural products. A more general synthetic route was developed to gain direct access to the previously restricted, diverse, semi-validated structure space of the xenicane superfamily, and more than forty xenicane congeners were synthesized. These include xeniolides, blumiolides, florlides, bridgehead olefins and epoxides, keto-enol tautomeric mixtures, and the deshydroxymethyl xeniolide framework. Several other terpene motifs were also prepared, including functionalized cyclopentanones, CD ring systems of 18-methoxy-18-oxo-1&-ketosteroids, and nine-membered ring-opening products. Seven of these novel compounds were found to selectively induce Bak- and Bax-dependent apoptosis in precancerous immortalized baby mouse kidney epithelial cells.

Resilient regulation of wireless communication in distributed systems
Creators: name: Dudheria, Rishabh
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: With the rapid evolution of technology and the growing use of wireless devices in  our daily lives, the need for regulating the interaction between such devices increases  as these devices are easily accessible for both legitimate and malicious use. Therefore,  in this work we focus on the regulation of wireless communication between the various  agents of an open, mobile, heterogeneous distributed system.    We first address the problem of under utilization of spectrum by describing a sec-  ondary spectrum marketplace model to enable the spectrum consumers to trade exclu-  sive access rights to a specific portion of the spectrum (designated by the frequency  band, geographic location and time period) in return for fee payment, under the con-  straint of obeying the trading rules formulated by the government in a decentralized  peer-to-peer fashion. We then outline an architecture in which such exclusive access  rights to a portion of the spectrum could be used to regulate radio device transmission to  enable proactive enforcement of the spectrum usage policies and to deter unauthorized  transmissions.    Next, we introduce a model of interaction control for the regulation of wireless  communication in ad hoc networks using the concept of Law Governed Interaction (LGI) to regulate the dynamic behavior of interacting wireless agents. Notably, we  have implemented the LGI mechanism on the ORBIT testbed and shown its usefulness  by prototyping an example based on a team of police officers in an ad hoc mission  to control traffic. We have demonstrated that the overhead added due to LGI would  not adversely impact performance. Since this implementation allows us to control  the application level messaging performed by the wireless nodes, it can be viewed as  an initial proof of concept for the architecture outlined in the first part of this work  (dealing with the regulation of radio device transmission).    Finally, we elaborate on the notion of resiliency in stateful decentralized access  control with the goal of making LGI more trustworthy to the failure and compromise of  its own enforcement infrastructure, so that it can address the needs of modern wireless  distributed systems in a unified manner.

description: This thesis lays the groundwork for multi-robot underwater operations by addressing key challenges in shallow-water environments, acoustic navigation, inter-robot communication, and automated performance evaluation in simulations. Using the Research-Oriented Underwater Glider for Hands-on Investigative Engineering (ROUGHIE) as a testbed, advancements were made to improve hardware reliability, maneuverability, and acoustic communication under multipath effects, propagation delays, and environmental noise. A comprehensive simulation environment, developed with ROS and Gazebo, was used to evaluate and optimize localization strategies. Notably, the Weighted Average with Dead Reckoning (WADR) method was introduced, merging dead reckoning with weighted average techniques to significantly reduce localization error and mitigate the impact of acoustic delays.To validate these solutions, experiments were conducted using SeaTrac X110 and X150 acoustic modems, demonstrating the feasibility of surface-deployed acoustic beacons for energy-efficient localization without frequent resurfacing. Additionally, acoustic communication protocols were enhanced to support mission monitoring and control via standardized IMC messages. The developed data manager addressed payload limitations by implementing efficient packet management and error correction mechanisms.Finally, the thesis introduced an automated performance evaluation framework, enabling real-time metric analysis and feedback for ROS-based simulations. This framework reduces manual labor for performance testing and grading, streamlining future development processes. Overall, this work provides a robust foundation for scalable multi-robot underwater systems and highlights opportunities for further advancements in autonomy, communication, and mission planning for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs).

Delusions, acceptances, and cognitive feelings
Creators: name: Dub, Richard
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Psychopathological delusions, such as the Capgras delusion, the Cotard delusion, and the florid delusions that accompany schizophrenia, have a number of features that are curiously difficult to explain. Delusions are resistant to counterevidence and impervious to counterargument. They are theoretically, affectively, and behaviorally circumscribed; delusional individuals tend not to act on their delusions or draw appropriate inferences from the content of their delusions. Delusional individuals are occasionally able to distinguish their delusions from other beliefs, sometimes speaking of their "delusional reality." I argue that these features support non-doxasticism about delusions.  Non-doxasticism is the thesis that, contrary to appearances, delusions are not beliefs at all.  After developing the prospects for non-doxasticism, I offer a novel non-doxasticist cognitive model. Delusions are pathological acceptances that are caused by powerful and aberrant cognitive feelings.

Probabilistic life cycle cost optimization of bridges

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: The main goal is to develop time-dependent bridge deterioration curves and to perform a Probabilistic-Bridge-Life-Cycle-Cost-Optimization (BLCCO-p) using them. Currently, a commonly accepted methodology considering the bridge as a system with all of its components doesn’t exist according to a report by the National Cooperative Highway Research Program published in 2003. Therefore, research is needed to develop a methodology for the BLCCO taking a systems approach and ensure that the most appropriate course of action is taken for bridge improvements.  Bridge deterioration curves are developed here based on nonlinear optimization analysis of the National Bridge Inventory (NBI) database using Markov-Chain process.  Most of the existing models consider only the age of the bridge and the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) and disregard other important factors such as climatic regions, bridge length and material type in formulating the objective functions. The deterioration curves developed in this dissertation categorize each bridge according to their climatic region, length, ADT and material type.  Bridge deterioration curves are formed for superstructure, deck and substructure of the bridges. This deterioration is simulated by a Markov-Chain process. Unexpected event (seismic, scour, etc.) occurrences are also considered.   In the BLCCO model, which is essentially a set of economic principles and computational procedures to obtain the most economical strategy for ensuring that a bridge will provide the services for which it was intended, bridge deterioration curves are used as the decision tool for the repair or the replacement of the bridge. In addition, detour traffic analysis, cost and effectiveness of rehabilitation or replacement activities, user, accident, agency costs and discounting models are included. The BLCCO is formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear optimization model.   The BLCCO model uses genetic algorithm to reach the optimal total cost and Monte-Carlo simulation as a risk analysis technique to do the optimization probabilistically (BLCCO-p).   Additional major outcomes of this dissertation are (1) updating of deterioration curves using Bayesian methodology, (2) a combined methodology for reliability index and bridge condition index to be used in deterioration models, (3) performing a parametric study for BLCCO using traffic volume growth, discount rate, user cost weight, probability of unexpected events.
