description: How closely related are two nodes in a graph? How to compute this score quickly, on huge, disk-resident, real graphs? Random walk with restart (RWR) provides a good relevance score between two nodes in a weighted graph, and it has been successfully used in numerous settings, like automatic captioning of images, generalizations to the "connection subgraphs", personalized PageRank, and many more. However, the straightforward implementations of RWR do not scale for large graphs, requiring either quadratic space and cubic pre-computation time, or slow response time on queries. We propose fast solutions to this problem. The heart of our approach is to exploit two important properties shared by many real graphs: (a) linear correlations and (b) block- wise, community-like structure. We exploit the linearity by using low-rank matrix approximation, and the community structure by graph partitioning, followed by the Sherman- Morrison lemma for matrix inversion. Experimental results on the Corel image and the DBLP dabasets demonstrate that our proposed methods achieve significant savings over the straightforward implementations: they can save several orders of magnitude in pre-computation and storage cost, and they achieve up to 150x speed up with 90%+ quality preservation.

description: We have investigated the structural, mechanical and electronic properties of D-carbon by ab initio calculations, a new phase of crystalline sp3 carbon (pace group D2h5, Pmma-orthorhombic). Total-energy calculations demonstrate that D-carbon is energetically more favorable than previously proposed T6 structure. State-of-the-art theoretical calculations show that this new phase is dynamic, mechanical, and thermal stable at zero pressure, and more stable than graphite beyond 63.7 GPa. Importantly, the calculations reveal that D-carbon possesses high Vickers hardness (86.58 GPa) and bulk modulus (369 GPa), which are comparable to diamond. D-carbon is a semiconductor with a band gap of 4.33 eV, lower than diamond's gap (5.47 eV). The simulated X-ray diffraction pattern is in satisfactory agreement with the previously experimental data in chimney or detonation soot, suggesting its possible presence in the specimen. Equally important, the possible transition path from diamond to D-carbon has been investigated, indicating a possible approach to synthesize this new phase.

description: We theoretically investigate the enhanced localization of bosonic atoms by fermionic atoms in three-dimensional optical lattices and find a self-trapping of the bosons for attractive boson-fermion interaction. Because of this mutual interaction, the fermion orbitals are substantially squeezed, which results in a strong deformation of the effective potential for bosons. This effect is enhanced by an increasing bosonic filling factor leading to a large shift of the transition between the superfluid and the Mott-insulator phase. We find a nonlinear dependency of the critical potential depth on the boson-fermion interaction strength. The results, in general, demonstrate the important role of higher Bloch bands for the physics of attractively interacting quantum gas mixtures in optical lattices and are of direct relevance to recent experiments with 87Rb - 40K mixtures, where a large shift of the critical point has been found.

description: We have observed six clouds along the line of sight toward W49A using the Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite and several ground-based observatories. The ortho-H2O 110 → 101 and OH (1665 and 1667 MHz) transitions are observed in absorption, whereas the low-J CO, 13CO, and C18O lines, as well as the [C I] 3P1-3P0 transition, are seen in emission. The emission lines allow us to determine the gas density (n ~ 1500-3000 cm-3) and CO column densities [N(CO) ~ 7.9 × 1015-2.8 × 1017 cm-2] using a standard large velocity gradient analysis. By using both the o-H218O and o-H2O absorption lines, we are able to constrain the column-averaged o-H2O abundances in each line-of-sight cloud to within about an order of magnitude. Assuming the standard N(H2)/N(CO) ratio of 104, we find N(o-H2O)/N(H2) = 8.1 × 10-8 to 4 × 10-7 for three clouds with optically thin water lines. In three additional clouds, the H2O lines are saturated, so we have used observations of the H218O ground-state transition to find upper limits to the water abundance of 8.2 × 10-8 to 1.5 × 10-6. We measure the OH abundance from the average of the 1665 and 1667 MHz observations and find N(OH)/N(H2) = 2.3 × 10-7 to 1.1 × 10-6. The o-H2O and OH abundances are similar to those determined for line-of-sight water absorption features toward W51 and Sgr B2 but are higher than those seen from water emission lines in molecular clouds. However, the clouds toward W49 have lower ratios of OH relative to H2O column densities than are predicted by simple models, which assume that dissociative recombination is the primary formation pathway for OH and H2O. Building on the 2002 work of Neufeld and coworkers, we present photochemistry models including additional chemical effects, which can also explain the observed OH and H2O column densities, as well as the observed H2O/CO abundance ratios.

description: We revisit the problem of accurately answering large classes of statistical queries while preserving differential privacy. Previous approaches to this problem have either been very general but have not had run-time polynomial in the size of the database, have applied only to very limited classes of queries, or have relaxed the notion of worst-case error guarantees. In this paper we consider the large class of sparse queries, which take non-zero values on only polynomially many universe elements. We give efficient query release algorithms for this class, in both the interactive and the non-interactive setting. Our algorithms also achieve better accuracy bounds than previous general techniques do when applied to sparse queries: our bounds are independent of the universe size. In fact, even the runtime of our interactive mechanism is independent of the universe size, and so can be implemented in the “infinite universe” model in which no finite universe need be specified by the data curator.

XMM-Newton and Broad Iron Lines

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Iron line emission is common in the X-ray spectra of accreting black holes. When the line emission is broad or variable then it is likely to originate from close to the black hole. X-ray irradiation of the accretion flow by the power-law X-ray continuum produces the X-ray 'reflection' spectrum which includes the iron line. The shape and variability of the iron lines and reflection can be used as a diagnostic of the radius, velocity and nature of the flow. The inner radius of the dense flow corresponds to the innermost stable circular orbit and thus can be used to determine the spin of the black hole. Studies of broad iron lines and reflection spectra offer much promise for understanding how the inner parts of accretion flows (and outflows) around black holes operate. There remains great potential for XMM-Newton to continue to make significant progress in this work. The need for high quality spectra and thus for long exposure times is paramount.

description: The Clifford bundle formalism (CBF) of differential forms and the theory of extensors acting on $\mathcal{C\ell}(M,g)$ is first used for a fomulation of the intrinsic geometry of a differential manifold $M$ equipped with a metric field $\boldsymbol{g}$ of signature $(p,q)$ and an arbitrary metric compatible connection $\nabla$ introducing the torsion (2-1)-extensor field $τ$, the curvature $(2-2)$ extensor field $\mathfrak{R}$ and (once fixing a gauge) the connection $(1-2)$-extensor $ω$ and the Ricci operator $\boldsymbol{\partial}\wedge\boldsymbol{\partial}$ (where $\boldsymbol{\partial}$ is the Dirac operator acting on sections of $\mathcal{C\ell}(M,g)$) which plays an important role in this paper. Next, using the CBF we give a thoughtful presentation the Riemann or the Lorentzian geometry of an orientable submanifold $M$ ($\dim M=m$) living in a manifold $\mathring{M}$ (such that $\mathring{M}\simeq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ is equipped with a semi-Riemannian metric $\boldsymbol{\mathring{g}}$ with signature $(\mathring{p},\mathring{q})$ and \ $\mathring{p}+\mathring{q}=n$ and its Levi-Civita connection $\mathring{D}$) and where there is defined a metric $\boldsymbol{g=i}^{\ast}\mathring{g}$, where $\boldsymbol{i}:$ $M\rightarrow \mathring{M}$ is the inclusion map. We prove several equivalent forms for the curvature operator $\mathfrak{R}$ of $M$. It is shown that the Ricci operator of $M$ is the (negative) square of the shape operator $\mathbf{S}$ of $M$. Also we disclose the relationship between the connection (1-2%)-extensor $ω$ and the shape biform $\mathcal{S}$ (an object related to $\mathbf{S}$). We hope that our presentation will be useful for differential geometers and theoretical physists interested, e.g, in string and brane theories and relativity theory.

description: Dark energy equation of state can be effectively described by that of a barotropic fluid. The barotropic fluid model describes the background evolution and the functional form of the equation of state parameter is well constrained by the observations. Equally viable explanations of dark energy are via scalar field models, both canonical and non-canonical; these scalar field models being low energy descriptions of an underlying high energy theory. In this paper, we attempt to reconcile the two approaches to dark energy by way of reconstructing the evolution of the scalar field potential. For this analysis, we consider canonical quintessence scalar field and the phantom field for this reconstruction. We attempt to understand the analytical or semi-analytical forms of scalar field potentials corresponding to typical well behaved parameterisations of dark energy using the constraints from recent observations.

Heritage tourism is a new and modern phenomenon relating to cultural tourism but its origin is mapped out back to the ancient periods of human existence. Cultural legacy, environment, accessibility and facilities are important features of heritage tourism places. Significant difference is prevailing among demographics of domestic tourists and features of heritage tourism places. Cultural legacy, traditional values, nature and environment and facilities have significant impact on revisit intention of domestic tourists. In order to improve revisit intention of domestic tourists, heritage tourism places should arrange cultural programs and they must give traditional hospitality. Additionally, places should maintain well and they must have recreational activities.

description: Visual object detection in robot soccer is fundamental so the robots can act to accomplish their tasks. Current techniques rely on manually highly polished definitions of object models, that lead to accurate detection, but are quite often computationally inefficient. In this work, we contribute an efficient object detection through regression (ODR) method based on offline training. We build upon the observation that objects in robot soccer are of a well defined color and investigate an offline learning approach to model such objects. ODR consists of two main phases: (i) offline training, where the objects are automatically labeled offline by existing techniques, and (ii) online detection, where a given image is efficiently processed in real-time with the learned models. For each image, ODR determines whether the object is present and provides its position if so. We show comparing results with current techniques for precision and computational load.

description: We examine the problem of finding similar tumor shapes. Starting from a natural similarity function (the so-called `max morphological distance'), we showed how to lower-bound it and how to search for nearest neighbors in large collections of tumor-like shapes. Specifically, we used state-of-the-art concepts from morphology, namely the `pattern spectrum' of a shape, to map each shape to a point in n-dimensional space. Following [16, 30], we organized the n-d points in an R-tree. We showed that the L∞ (=max) norm in the n-d space lower-bounds the actual distance. This guarantees no false dismissals for range queries. In addition, we developed a nearest-neighbor algorithm that also guarantees no false dismissals. Finally, we implemented the method, and we tested it against a testbed of realistic tumor shapes, using an established tumor- growth model of Murray Eden [13]. The experiments showed that our method is roughly an order of magnitude faster than the straightforward sequential scanning.

description: Due to the high importance of access and egress times as well as freefloating, the public charging infrastructure is as crucial to V2G car sharing as chargers in the depots of the operators. As remuneration does not significantly influence the subjects' utilities but cost does, operators might want to integrate the former and the latter such that customers transparently observe the total costs. Seeking high ranges, even largely exceeding trip lengths, requires a concise booking and charging management system. The results clearly show that there is high potential for this kind of car sharing, paving the way for integrated energy systems. 3 Sample and results 5 References 1 Benefits of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) car sharing 2 Stated preference experiment Two main strategies to decarbonize individualized passenger road transport are electrification and car sharing (1). Electrification requires low-carbon electricity to contribute to decarbonisation. The intermittency of renewable energies and the additional load of electric vehicles (EVs) challenge the electricity system. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) offers bidirectional electricity flows between the vehicle and the grid (2,3), thus supporting the integration of renewables and electric vehicles by selling services to network operators (4).

De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions.

description: We present Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) and Westerbork ynthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) observations of the recently discovered Local Group dwarf galaxy, Leo T. The peak HI column density is measured to be 7x10^20 cm^-2, and the total HI mass is 2.8Xx10^5 Msun, based on a distance of 420 kpc. Leo T has both cold (~ 500 K) and warm (~ 6000 K) HI at its core, with a global velocity dispersion of 6.9 km/s, from which we derive a dynamical mass within the HI radius of 3.3x10^6 Msun, and a mass-to-light ratio of greater than 50. We calculate the Jeans mass from the radial profiles of the HI column density and velocity dispersion, and predict that the gas should be globally stable against star formation. This finding is inconsistent with the half light radius of Leo T, which extends to 170 pc, and indicates that local conditions must determine where star formation takes place. Leo T is not only the lowest luminosity galaxy with on-going star formation discovered to date, it is also the most dark matter dominated, gas-rich dwarf in the Local Group.

description: Information on cosmic-ray (CR) composition comes from direct CR measurements while their distribution in the Galaxy is evaluated from observations of their associated diffuse emission in the range from radio to gamma rays. Even though the main interaction processes are identified, more and more precise observations provide an opportunity to study more subtle effects and pose a challenge to the propagation models. GALPROP is a sophisticated CR propagation code that is being developed for about 20 years. It provides a unified framework for interpretations of data from many different types of experiments. It is used for a description of direct CR measurements and associated interstellar emissions (radio to gamma rays), thereby providing important information about CR injection and propagation in the interstellar medium. By accounting for all relevant observables at a time, the GALPROP code brings together theoretical predictions, interpretation of the most recent observations, and helps to reveal the signatures of new phenomena. In this paper we review latest applications of GALPROP and address ongoing and near future improvements. We are discussing effects of different propagation models, and of the transition from cylindrically symmetrical models to a proper 3D description of the components of the interstellar medium and the source distribution.

description: The oestrogen-related receptor (ERR) and ultraspiracle (USP) genes belong to members of nuclear receptors superfamily, which play some important roles in regulation of insect growth, development and reproduction. In this paper, an USP gene full-length sequence of 1553 bp in Polyrhachis vicina (P.vicina) was first cloned and named PvUSP, which contains a 1275 bp open reading frame (ORF) and encodes a protein of 424 amino acids. Then the PvERR and PvUSP mRNA expression levels as well as the ecdysone concentration were investigated at different developmental stages and castes of P.vicina. The changes of PvERR and PvUSP mRNA expressions at whole life cycle of the ants may suggest their function in regulating the development. Ingested RNA interference was performed at all developmental stages and castes of P.vicina to knockdown the PvERR mRNA expressions by continuous feeding of PvERR double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) mixed in artificial diet. Ultimately, the feeding of dsRNA led to the change of PvERR and PvUSP transcript as well as the ecdysone concentration. These results indicated that feeding dsRNA was an efficient method to achieve the gene silencing and to know the functions of target gene. PvUSP may participate in the PvERR signalling pathway and may have functional relevance in regulating the growth and development of P.vicina.

These interactions produce emissions that span the electromagnetic spectrum, and are an invaluable tool for understanding the intensities and spectra of CRs in distant regions, far beyond those probed by direct CR measurements. We present updates on the study of CR properties by combining multi-frequency observations of the interstellar emission and latest CR direct measurements with propagation models.

description: We present a new algorithm to mesh an arbitrary piecewise linear complex in three dimensions. The algorithm achieves an O(n logΔ + m) runtime where n, m, and Δ are the input size, the output size, and spread respectively. This represents the first non-trivial runtime guarantee for this class of input. The new algorithm extends prior work on runtime-efficient meshing by allowing the input to have acute input angles (called creases). Features meeting at creases are handled with protective collars. A new procedure is given for creating these collars in an unstructured fashion, without the need for expensive sizing precomputation as in prior work. The collar surface dividing these two regions is represented implicitly using surface reconstruction techniques. This new approach allows the collar to be dynamically generated , allowing the whole algorithm to run in a single pass. For inputs with Δ bounded by a polynomial in n, this runtime is optimal.

description: We formulate a Crepant Resolution Correspondence for open Gromov-Witten invariants (OCRC) of toric Lagrangian branes inside Calabi-Yau 3-orbifolds by encoding the open theories into sections of Givental's symplectic vector space. The correspondence can be phrased as the identification of these sections via a linear morphism of Givental spaces. We deduce from this a Bryan-Graber-type statement for disk invariants, which we extend to arbitrary topologies in the Hard Lefschetz case. Motivated by ideas of Iritani, Coates-Corti-Iritani-Tseng and Ruan, we furthermore propose 1) a general form of the morphism entering the OCRC, which arises from a geometric correspondence between equivariant K-groups, and 2) an all-genus version of the OCRC for Hard Lefschetz targets. We provide a complete proof of both statements in the case of minimal resolutions of threefold An singularities; as a necessary step of the proof we establish the all-genus closed Crepant Resolution Conjecture with descendents in its strongest form for this class of examples. Our methods rely on a new description of the quantum D-modules underlying the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of this family of targets.

description: This paper presents a new variant of the perceptron algorithm using selective committee averaging (or voting). We apply this agorithm to the problem of learning ranking functions for document retrieval, known as the "Learning to Rank" problem. Most previous algorithms proposed to address this problem focus on minimizing the number of misranked document pairs in the training set. The committee perceptron algorithm improves upon existing solutions by biasing the final solution towards maximizing an arbitrary rank-based performance metrics. This method performs comparably or better than two state-of-the-art rank learning algorithms, and also provides significant training time improvements over those methods, showing over a 45-fold reduction in training time compared to ranking SVM

description: Silicon on insulator photonics has offered a versatile platform for the recent development of integrated optomechanical circuits. However, there are some constraints such as the high cost of the wafers and limitation to a single physical device level. In the present work we investigate nanocrystalline silicon as an alternative material for optomechanical devices. In particular, we demonstrate that optomechanical crystal cavities fabricated of nanocrystalline silicon have optical and mechanical properties enabling non-linear dynamical behaviour and effects such as thermo-optic/free-carrier-dispersion self-pulsing, phonon lasing and chaos, all at low input laser power and with typical frequencies as high as 0.3 GHz.

description: This paper concerns robust inference on average treatment effects following model selection. In the selection on observables framework, we show how to construct confidence intervals based on a doubly-robust estimator that are robust to model selection errors and prove that they are valid uniformly over a large class of treatment effect models. The class allows for multivalued treatments with heterogeneous effects (in observables), general heteroskedasticity, and selection amongst (possibly) more covariates than observations. Our estimator attains the semiparametric efficiency bound under appropriate conditions. Precise conditions are given for any model selector to yield these results, and we show how to combine data-driven selection with economic theory. For implementation, we give a specific proposal for selection based on the group lasso, which is particularly well-suited to treatment effects data, and derive new results for high-dimensional, sparse multinomial logistic regression. A simulation study shows our estimator performs very well in finite samples over a wide range of models. Revisiting the National Supported Work demonstration data, our method yields accurate estimates and tight confidence intervals.

description: Self-assembly of colloidal particles due to elastic interactions in nematic liquid crystals promises tunable composite materials and can be guided by exploiting surface functionalization, geometric shape and topology, though these means of controlling self-assembly remain limited. Here, we realize low-symmetry achiral and chiral elastic colloids in the nematic liquid crystals using colloidal polygonal concave and convex prisms. We show that the controlled pinning of disclinations at the prisms edges alters the symmetry of director distortions around the prisms and their orientation with respect to the far-field director. The controlled localization of the disclinations at the prism's edges significantly influences anisotropy of the diffusion properties of prisms dispersed in liquid crystals and allows one to modify their self-assembly. We show that elastic interactions between polygonal prisms can be switched between repulsive and attractive just by controlled re-pinning the disclinations at different edges using laser tweezers. Our findings demonstrate that elastic interactions between colloidal particles dispersed in nematic liquid crystals are sensitive to the topologically equivalent but geometrically rich controlled configurations of the particle-induced defects.
Resolving the clumpy circumstellar environment of the B[e] supergiant LHA 120-S 35

description: B[e] supergiants (SGs) are massive post-main-sequence stars, surrounded by a complex circumstellar (CS) environment. The aim of this work is to investigate the structure and kinematics of the CS disc of the B[e] SG LHA 120-S 35. We used high-resolution optical spectra obtained in different years to model the forbidden emission lines and determine the kinematical properties of their line-forming regions, assuming Keplerian rotation. We also used low-resolution near-infrared (IR) spectra to explore the variability of molecular emission. LHA 120-S 35 displays spectral variability in both optical and IR regions. The P-Cygni line profiles of H I, as well as those of Fe II and O I, suggest the presence of a strong bipolar clumped wind. We distinguish density enhancements in the P-Cygni absorption component of the first Balmer lines, which show variations in both velocity and strength. The P-Cygni profile emission component is double-peaked, indicating the presence of a rotating CS disc. We also observe line-profile variations in the permitted and forbidden features of Fe II and O I. In the IR, we detect variations in the intensity of the H I emission lines as well as in the emission of the CO band-heads. Moreover, we find that the profiles of each [Ca II] and [O I] emission lines contain contributions from spatially different (complete or partial) rings. Globally, we find evidence of detached multi-ring structures, revealing density variations along the disc. We suggest that LHA 120-S 35 has passed through the red-supergiant (RSG) phase and evolves back bluewards in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. The formation of the complex CS structure could be the result of the wind-wind interactions of the post-RSG wind with the previously ejected material from the RSG. However, the presence of a binary companion can not be excluded. Finally, we find that LHA 120-S 35 belongs to a young stellar cluster.

description: We discuss correlations in azimuthal angle as well as correlations in two-dimensional space of transverse momenta of two jets as well as photon and jet. Some $k_t$-factorization subprocesses are included for the first time in the literature. Different unintegrated gluon/parton distributions are used in the $k_t$-factorization approach. The results depend on UGDF/UPDF used. The collinear NLO $2 \to 3$ contributions dominate over $k_t$-factorization cross section at small relative azimuthal angles as well as for asymmetric transverse momentum configurations.

description: B a ckground: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been crucially implicated in various diseases, however, their involvement in chronic intermittent ethanol (CIE) exposure remains unclear. O bjective: The present study was conducted to evaluate the circular RNA expression alteration in brain samples and to identify the molecular mechanisms underlying chronic intermittent ethanol exposure. M ethods: Male C57BL/6J mice (10 for each group) were given 4 weeks of chronic intermittent ethanol exposure. Whole brain samples were collected for high-throughput sequencing and circRNA bioinformatic analysis. Real-time quantitative PCR (RI-qPCR) and agarose electrophoresis were used to validate the differentially expressed circRNAs. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway (KEGG) analysis were performed. A p level < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. R esults: Compared with the control group and baseline values, the CIE group showed a significant increase in ethanol intake. High-throughput sequencing revealed 399 significantly different circRNAs in CIE mice, including 150 up-regulated circRNAs and 249 down-regulated circRNAs. GO analysis showed that the most significantly enriched term for biological process, cellular component, and molecular function were GO:0050885, GO:0016020 and GO:0005515, respectively. The most enriched pathways in KEGG analysis were GABAergic synapse (mmu04727), followed by retrograde endocannabinoid (eCB) signaling (mmu04723) and morphine addiction (mmu05032). Among the circRNAs, RT-qPCR confirmed 14 upregulated and 13 downregulated circRNAs in the brain tissues with 9 upregulated and 10 downregulated circRNAs being observed in blood samples. C onclusions: Our study suggests that chronic ethanol exposure upregulates or downregulates circRNAs in the brain, which, in turn, could alter neurotransmitter release and signal transduction.
Fast kernel matrix-vector multiplication with application to Gaussian process learning

description: Abstract: "A number of core computational problems in machine learning, both old and new, can be cast as a matrix-vector multiplication between a kernel matrix or class-probability matrix and a vector of weights. This arises prominently, for example, in the kernel estimation methods of nonparametric statistics, many common probabilistic graphical models, and the more recent kernel machines. After highlighting the existence of this computational problem in several well-known machine learning methods, we focus on a solution for one specific example for clarity, Gaussian process (GP) prediction -- one whose applicability has been particularly hindered by this computational barrier. We demonstrate the application of a recent N-body approach developed specifically for statistical problems, employing adaptive computational geometry and finite-difference approximation. This core algorithm reduces the O(N┬▓) matrix-vector multiplications within GP learning to O(N), making the resulting overall learning algorithm O(N). GP learning for N = 1 million points is demonstrated."
