description: Diagnosis of pulmonary lesions from computed tomography (CT) is important but challenging for clinical decision making in lung cancer related diseases. Deep learning has achieved great success in computer aided diagnosis (CADx) area for lung cancer, whereas it suffers from label ambiguity due to the difficulty in the radiological diagnosis. Considering that invasive pathological analysis serves as the clinical golden standard of lung cancer diagnosis, in this study, we solve the label ambiguity issue via a large-scale radio-pathomics dataset containing 5,134 radiological CT images with pathologically confirmed labels, including cancers (e.g., invasive/non-invasive adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma) and non-cancer diseases (e.g., tuberculosis, hamartoma). This retrospective dataset, named Pulmonary-RadPath, enables development and validation of accurate deep learning systems to predict invasive pathological labels with a non-invasive procedure, i.e., radiological CT scans. A three-level hierarchical classification system for pulmonary lesions is developed, which covers most diseases in cancer-related diagnosis. We explore several techniques for hierarchical classification on this dataset, and propose a Leaky Dense Hierarchy approach with proven effectiveness in experiments. Our study significantly outperforms prior arts in terms of data scales (6x larger), disease comprehensiveness and hierarchies. The promising results suggest the potentials to facilitate precision medicine.

description: Biomagnifications of emergent contamination with diclofenac in aquatic media exert adverse effects on ecosystems and the environment. Hence, employing an effective remediation route, especially magnetic adsorption, is highly beneficial to eliminating hazardous pharmaceutical wastes. In this research, an efficient magnetic nanoadsorbent derived from aminated manganese ferrite, cellulose, and graphene oxide (GO) has been characterized and employed for diclofenac (DF) removal. Results of EDX analysis showed that aminopropyltriethoxysilane, as an amine source, have been anchored on the magnetic adsorbent surface with high density. Moreover, FESEM and TEM images, as well as the XRD pattern, confirmed that the nanocomposite is a three-component adsorbent. Response surface methodology was adopted to optimize effective parameters for DF adsorption. Solution pH, contact time, adsorbent amount, and concentration of NaNO3 were four variables that have been optimized. Kinetic and isotherm studies for the adsorption experiments showed that diclofenac adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Moreover, the thermodynamic study indicated that the adsorption process is spontaneous and follows an exothermic path. With a high maximum adsorption capacity of 439.0 mg.g−1 and an adequate removal efficiency of 98.0%, the aminated MnFe2O4-cellulose-GO is a suitable candidate to mitigate the side effects of DF in aqueous media.

No purification ontology, no quantum paradoxes

description: It is almost universally believed that in quantum theory the two following statements hold: 1) all transformations are achieved by a unitary interaction followed by a von Neumann measurement; 2) all mixed states are marginals of pure entangled states. I name this doctrine the dogma of purification ontology. The source of the dogma is the original von Neumann axiomatisation of the theory, which largely relies on the Schroedinger equation as a postulate, which holds in a nonrelativistic context, and whose operator version holds only in free quantum field theory, but no longer in the interacting theory. In the present paper I prove that both ontologies of unitarity and state purity are unfalsifiable, even in principle, and therefore axiomatically spurious. I propose instead a minimal four-postulate axiomatisation: 1) associate a Hilbert space HA to each system A; 2) compose two systems by the tensor product rule HAB = HAxHB; 3) associate a transformation from system A to B to a quantum operation, i.e. to a completely positive trace-non-increasing map between the trace-class operators of A and B; 4) (Born rule) evaluate all joint probabilities through that of a special type of quantum operation: the state preparation. I then conclude that quantum paradoxes-such as the Schroedinger-cat's, and, most relevantly, the information paradox-are originated only by the dogma of purification ontology, and they are no longer paradoxes of the theory in the minimal formulation. For the same reason, most interpretations of the theory (e.g. many-world, relational, Darwinism, transactional, von Neumann-Wigner, time-symmetric, ...) interpret the same dogma, not the strict theory stripped of the spurious postulates.

description: Amberlite-XAD 4 resin was modified with ionic liquid (Aliquat-336) for adsorptive removal of Methylchlorophenoxy propionic acid (MCPP). The modification of resin with ionic liquid improved the adsorption of MCPP on Amberlite resin. The modified resin was mesoporous with a high surface area of 418.7 m2 g−1 confirmed by BET-N2 isotherm studies. The functional modification and mechanistic features of the modified resin adsorbent were studied using different techniques such as SEM-EDX, TGA, PXRD, XRF, FT-IR, and XPS. The adsorption capacity of the material 64.7 mg g−1 following pseudo-second-order kinetics. The thermodynamic studies affirmed spontaneity and endothermic adsorption. The reusability of the material was up to three cycles. The modified resin could remove 86% of MCPP in run-off water.

description: Αντικείμενο έρευνας της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η θεματική του κειμένου «η Αλίκη στη χώρα των θαυμάτων» του Lewis Carroll και η μετάβαση της σε ορισμένες ταινίες διαφόρων χωρών (Η Αλίκη στις πόλεις, Charmed: Malice in Wonderland, Ο λαβύρινθος του Πάνα). Στο επίκεντρο λοιπόν τίθεται η απώλεια ταυτότητας της ηρωίδας αλλά και η μετατροπή του θέματος αυτού για τον κινηματογράφο. Το θεωρητικό πλαίσιο, σύμφωνα με το οποίο χαρακτηρίζονται οι μεταφορές, αποτελεί μια γενική επισκόπηση των σχέσεων μεταξύ κειμένων και ταινιών. Αναφέρονται επομένως οι ομοιότητες και οι διαφορές των δύο μέσων και κατά πόσο μια μεταφορά μπορεί να ονομαστεί κινηματογραφική. Συγχρόνως παρουσιάζονται οι διάφορες εκφάνσεις της Θεωρίας της διακειμενικότητας (Kristeva, Genette), οι οποίες πέρα από τις σχέσεις μεταξύ κειμένων, βρίσκουν εφαρμογή και σε ταινίες. Σύμφωνα με τη θεωρία εξετάζεται σε ποιο βαθμό οι διακειμενικές σχέσεις είναι συνειδητές ή ασυνείδητες και αν οι ταινίες μπορούν να θεωρηθούν μεταβάσεις του προαναφερόμενου λογοτεχνικού κειμένου.
description: Point of the present paper is the adaptation of Lewis Carrollʼs text “Alice in Wonderland” thematic in certain movies of different countries (Alice in the cities, Charmed: Malice in Wonderland, Pans Labyrinth). The loss of identity of the main figure and adaptations themselves becomes the central thesis. The kind of adaptation can be characterized according to the theoretical background. That is why similarities and differences between movies and texts and hence what the term (filmic) adaptation means, are mentioned. Parallel the facet of the theory of intertextuality (Kristeva, Genette) is presented, which can be equally used on movies and not only on books. According to the mentioned theory it can be determined, if the intermedial relations are deliberated or not and even if the movies can be seen as adaptations of the text.

description: The B-meson decay constant fB has been calculated from unquenched lattice QCD in the unphysical region. For extrapolating the lattice data to the physical region, we propose a phenomenological functional form based on the effective chiral perturbation theory for heavy mesons, which respects both the heavy quark symmetry and the chiral symmetry, and the non-relativistic constituent quark model which is valid at large pion masses. The inclusion of pion loop corrections leads to nonanalytic contributions to fB when the pion mass is small. The finite-range regularization technique is employed for the resummation of higher order terms of the chiral expansion. We also take into account the finite volume effects in lattice simulations. The dependence on the parameters and other uncertainties in our model are discussed.

Εν κατακλείδι η διαπολιτισμική λογοτεχνία δεν αποτελείται από πολλά ‘κλειστά’ εθνικά συστήματα και συνεπώς ,είναι προτιμότερο να μην εξετάζεται ως ένα αυτοτελές και αυτόνομο σύνολο , αλλά ούτε σαν στόχος.

description: The aim is to look through the literature of the immigrant writers the way an intercultural identity is structured. For this reason, we selected literary works by Alexakis, Sourounis and Kundera in order to detect the following research hypotheses: a) the migration text is a hybrid and b) the creation of intercultural identity in immigrant writers’ texts is always under negotiation, involving a potential. In conclusion, intercultural literature does not consist of many 'closed' national systems, therefore it is better not being seen as an independent and autonomous whole not even as a target. The aim is the reader can succeed in catharsis through the search of a disputed national identity.

description: Cluster analysis of presolar silicon carbide grains based on literature data for 12C/13C, 14N/15N, δ30Si/28Si, and δ29Si/28Si including or not inferred initial 26Al/27Al data, reveals nine clusters agreeing with previously defined grain types but also highlighting new divisions. Mainstream grains reside in three clusters probably representing different parent star metallicities. One of these clusters has a compact core, with a narrow range of composition, pointing to an enhanced production of SiC grains in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars with a narrow range of masses and metallicities. The addition of 26Al/27Al data highlights a cluster of mainstream grains, enriched in 15N and 26Al, which cannot be explained by current AGB models. We defined two AB grain clusters, one with 15N and 26Al excesses, and the other with 14N and smaller 26Al excesses, in agreement with recent studies. Their definition does not use the solar N isotopic ratio as a divider, and the contour of the 26Al-rich AB cluster identified in this study is in better agreement with core-collapse supernova models. We also found a cluster with a mixture of putative nova and AB grains, which may have formed in supernova or nova environments. X grains make up two clusters, having either strongly correlated Si isotopic ratios or deviating from the 2/3 slope line in the Si 3-isotope plot. Finally, most Y and Z grains are jointly clustered, suggesting that the previous use of 12C/13C= 100 as a divider for Y grains was arbitrary. Our results show that cluster analysis is a powerful tool to interpret the data in light of stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis modelling and highlight the need of more multi-element isotopic data for better classification.

description: We suggest an approximation for the zero-balanced Appell hypergeometric function $F_1$ near the singular point $(1,1)$. Our approximation can be viewed as a generalization of Ramanujan's approximation for zero-balanced ${_2F_1}$ and is expressed in terms of ${_3F_2}$. We find an error bound and prove some basic properties of the suggested approximation which reproduce the similar properties of the Appell function. Our approximation reduces to the approximation of Carlson-Gustafson when the Appell function reduces to the first incomplete elliptic integral.

description: Local-probe imaging of the ferroelectric domain structure and auxiliary bulk pyroelectric measurements were conducted at low temperatures with the aim to clarify the essential aspects of the orbitally driven phase transition in GaMo4S8, a lacunar spinel crystal that can be viewed as a spin-hole analogue of its GaV4S8 counterpart. We employed multiple scanning probe techniques combined with symmetry and mechanical compatibility analysis to uncover the hierarchical domain structures, developing on the 10-100 nm scale. The identified domain architecture involves a plethora of ferroelectric domain boundaries and junctions, including primary and secondary domain walls in both electrically neutral and charged configurations, and topological line defects transforming neutral secondary walls into two oppositely charged ones.

description: We study the origin and properties of 'extra' or 'excess' central light in the surface brightness profiles of gas-rich merger remnants. Combining a large set of hydrodynamical simulations with data on observed mergers (spanning a broad range of profiles at various masses and degrees of relaxation), we show how to robustly separate the physically meaningful extra light -- stellar populations formed in a compact central starburst during a gas-rich merger -- from the outer profile established by violent relaxation acting on stars already present in the progenitors prior to the final merger. This separation is sensitive to the profile treatment, and we demonstrate that certain fitting procedures can yield physically misleading results. We show that our method reliably recovers the younger starburst population, and examine how the properties of this component scale with mass, gas content, and other aspects of the progenitors. We consider the time evolution of profiles in different bands, and estimate biases introduced by observational studies at different times and wavelengths. We show that extra light is ubiquitous in observed and simulated gas-rich merger remnants, with sufficient mass (~3-30% of the stellar mass) to explain the discrepancy in the maximum phase-space densities of ellipticals and their progenitor spirals. The nature of this central component provides powerful new constraints on the formation histories of observed systems.

Visual echo analysis and multi-evidential correlation: non-linear matching & registration of signals and images
Creators: name: Bandari, Esfandiar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Many low-level vision tasks - such as measurement of visual motion, stereo disparity estimation, or texture segmentation - can be solved by similar computational or biological mechanisms. The primary aim of this dissertation is to introduce and describe a broadly applicable approach to address a variety of low level computational vision problems. This unified framework, which is named visual echo analysis, is based on the simple observation that many computer vision problems can be viewed as detection and estimation of echo arrival periods in time and space. To this end, the framework uses cepstral techniques, a common and effective non-linear signal processing methods for detecting the presence of echoes and estimating their spatial or temporal arrival period. The thesis introduces computational and performance improvements to the traditional power and differential cepstrum with direct extensions to complex and phase cepstrum. Visual echo analysis (and multi-dimensional cepstrum) is then applied to a number of low-level vision tasks such as: motion estimation, binocular and trinocular stereo disparity, motion-stereo analysis, multi-frame disparity estimation (multi-frame motion, multiple baseline stereo), stationary texture segmentation, boundary symmetry analysis, and detection and estimation of multiple disparities (i.e., motion transparency, reflection, and occluding boundary). The relationship between echo analysis and matching is briefly examined, and a new technique for signal registration - called multi-evidential correlation (MEC) is introduced. MEC provides multiple, and thus verifiable, measurements for individual point disparities. The technique utilizes specific matching kernels - such as cepstrum, phase correlation or Hadamard based disparity measurements methods - to furnish multiple estimates of individual disparities; estimates that can be used to verify one another and/or be combined to establish a robust and accurate measure of signal displacements.

description: By engineering an anti-parity-time (anti-PT) symmetric cavity magnonics system with precise eigenspace controllability, we observe two different singularities in the same system. One type of singularity, the exceptional point (EP), is produced by tuning the magnon damping. Between two EPs, the maximal coherent superposition of photon and magnon states is robustly sustained by the preserved anti-PT symmetry. The other type of singularity, arising from the dissipative coupling of two anti-resonances, is an unconventional bound state in the continuum (BIC). At the settings of BICs, the coupled system exhibits infinite discontinuities in the group delay. We find that both singularities co-exist at the equator of the Bloch sphere, which reveals a unique hybrid state that simultaneously exhibits the maximal coherent superposition and slow light capability.

Ταυτόχρονα, η ανάπτυξη νέων φωτοβολταϊκών τεχνολογιών την έχει καθιερώσει ως αξιόπιστη εναλλακτική, σε σχέση με τα παραδοσιακά ενεργειακά συστήματα. Η βασική πρόκληση για τις φωτοβολταϊκές μονάδες είναι η ενσωμάτωσή τους στα ενεργειακά δίκτυα, συνδυάζοντας την περιβαλλοντική ευαισθησία με την αποδοτικότητα ως προς το κόστος. Έτσι, μελετώντας το σύστημα των φωτοβολταϊκών στην παρούσα εργασία συμπεραίνουμε ότι τέτοιου είδους τεχνολογίες αρχίζουν δυναμικά να καλύπτουν πλέον τις υπάρχουσες και τις μελλοντικές απαιτήσεις των επιχειρήσεων και των καταναλωτών. Επίσης, θα αναφερθούμε σε έρευνα που μας επισημαίνει τα προβλήματα του κλάδου, τους τρόπους αντιμετώπισης, καθώς και στα κίνητρα επένδυσης. Ακόμα θα παραθέσουμε ένα χρηματοοικονομικό παράδειγμα εγκατάστασης φωτοβολταϊκών συστημάτων.
description: In this paper we will deal with the Renewable Energy and in particular the photovoltaic effect. Initially we will refer to the energy economy and to environmental problems, thus highlighting the need to develop new technologies and applications-oriented Green Economy. We will focus on ways of implementing RES and particularly the exploitation of solar energy which is becoming a key sector of the electricity market. Simultaneously, the development of new photovoltaic technologies has established her as a reliable alternative compared to traditional energy systems.The main challenge for the modules is their integration into energy networks, combining environmental awareness with regard to the efficiency costs. Thus, studying the solar system in the present study we conclude that such technologies are beginning to cover the most dynamic current and future requirements of businesses and consumers. Also, we will refer to our research highlights to the sector's problems, their responses, as well as investment incentives. You'll also cite finance example of photovoltaic systems.

description: We discuss static, cylindrically symmetric vacuum solutions of hybrid metric-Palatini gravity (HMPG), a recently proposed theory that has been shown to successfully pass the local observational tests and to produce a certain progress in cosmology. We use HMPG in its well-known scalar-tensor representation. The latter coincides with general relativity containing, as a source of gravity, a conformally coupled scalar field $ϕ$ and a self-interaction potential $V(ϕ)$. The $ϕ$ field can be canonical or phantom, and accordingly the theory splits into canonical and phantom sectors. We seek solitonic (stringlike) vacuum solutions of HMPG, that is, completely regular solutions with Minkowski metric far from the symmetry axis, with a possible angular deficit. A transition of the theory to the Einstein conformal frame is used as a tool, and many of the results apply to the general Bergmann-Wagoner-Nordtvedt class of scalar-tensor theories as well as $f(R)$ theories of gravity. One of these results is a one-to-one correspondence between stringlike solutions in the Einstein and Jordan frames if the conformal factor that connects them is everywhere regular. An algorithm for construction of stringlike solutions in HMPG and scalar-tensor theories is suggested, and some examples of such solutions are obtained and discussed.

description: This article delves into a sociological analysis of the book “La valeur du footballer” of Manuel Schottè, examining the attributed value of football players and the prevalent trend in the soccer world to emphasize individuality over the collective. The author explores interpretations by considering the valorization as a historical product rooted in structural dynamics and context-specific practices. The article further explores football as a space for constructing a status of prominence, the valorization of a minority of players as a symbolic frontier, concentration and circularity of profits, and the individualization of performance and player valorization. Ultimately, the work provides a comprehensive perspective connecting history, social structure, and contemporary dynamics to comprehend the value within football.

description: Landslide run-out modeling involves various uncertainties originating from model input data. It is therefore desirable to assess the model's sensitivity. A global sensitivity analysis that is capable of exploring the entire input space and accounts for all interactions, often remains limited due to computational challenges resulting from a large number of necessary model runs. We address this research gap by integrating Gaussian process emulation into landslide run-out modeling and apply it to the open-source simulation tool r.avaflow. The feasibility and efficiency of our approach is illustrated based on the 2017 Bondo landslide event. The sensitivity of aggregated model outputs, such as the apparent friction angle, impact area, as well as spatially resolved maximum flow height and velocity, to the dry-Coulomb friction coefficient, turbulent friction coefficient and the release volume are studied. The results of first-order effects are consistent with previous results of common one-at-a-time sensitivity analyses. In addition to that, our approach allows to rigorously investigate interactions. Strong interactions are detected on the margins of the flow path where the expectation and variation of maximum flow height and velocity are small. The interactions generally become weak with increasing variation of maximum flow height and velocity. Besides, there are stronger interactions between the two friction coefficients than between the release volume and each friction coefficient. In the future, it is promising to extend the approach for other computationally expensive tasks like uncertainty quantification, model calibration, and smart early warning.
Optical vortex trajectory of the edge-diffracted single-charged Laguerre-Gaussian beam

description: The paper deals with the edge diffraction of the single charged Laguerre-Gaussian beam outside the waist. Based on the Kirchhoff-Fresnel integral, the behavior of the optical vortex (OV) migration during sequential beam blocking by the straight edge of the screen is performed analytically. Universal combination of the diffracting-beam parameters determining the shape for the OV spiral trajectories is revealed. Parametric equations describing the OV dislocation dependent on the beam screening degree are derived. In addition, the spiral trajectory, which describes the OV positions in the case of the screen-edge translatory motion across the incident beam under conditions of the weak diffraction perturbation, is obtained. As a result, the equation for a wider region of diffraction perturbation is selected as a best matching function for a certain variation interval of the beam parameters. The work has prepared the basis for solving the inverse diffraction problem: determining parameters of the beam diffractive interaction with obstacles from the migration trajectory of the optical vortex.

A war of words. The representation of the war in Ukraine in the sports media of Latvia
Creators: name: Ropa, Anastasija
Publisher: name: Eracle. Journal of Sport and Social Sciences
Year: 2023

description: Latvia is an ex-Soviet country with Latvian and ethnically Russian population and a history of uneasy relationship with Russia, including the love and hate relationship with Russian sports. Many athletes and trainers working in Latvia have competed and were trained in Russia, using Russian facilities, or, for the older generation, the Soviet Union. However, Russia and Russian-speaking Latvian residents, including the citizens of Latvia, have been long viewed with suspicion and have been the subject of discrimination at times of crisis. This paper examines the representation of the war in Ukraine in the sporting media of Latvia from February to early October 2022. The material is sourced from the main news portal of Latvia, Delfi, which has a Latvian-language and a Russian-language versions. It is found that the two versions have significant differences in the way they refer to the war in sport-related news items.

description: Predicting clinical outcome is remarkably important but challenging. Research efforts have been paid on seeking significant biomarkers associated with the therapy response or/and patient survival. However, these biomarkers are generally costly and invasive, and possibly dissatifactory for novel therapy. On the other hand, multi-modal, heterogeneous, unaligned temporal data is continuously generated in clinical practice. This paper aims at a unified deep learning approach to predict patient prognosis and therapy response, with easily accessible data, e.g., radiographics, laboratory and clinical information. Prior arts focus on modeling single data modality, or ignore the temporal changes. Importantly, the clinical time series is asynchronous in practice, i.e., recorded with irregular intervals. In this study, we formalize the prognosis modeling as a multi-modal asynchronous time series classification task, and propose a MIA-Prognosis framework with Measurement, Intervention and Assessment (MIA) information to predict therapy response, where a Simple Temporal Attention (SimTA) module is developed to process the asynchronous time series. Experiments on synthetic dataset validate the superiory of SimTA over standard RNN-based approaches. Furthermore, we experiment the proposed method on an in-house, retrospective dataset of real-world non-small cell lung cancer patients under anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. The proposed method achieves promising performance on predicting the immunotherapy response. Notably, our predictive model could further stratify low-risk and high-risk patients in terms of long-term survival.
