description: Background: Selenium status is inversely associated with the incidence of prostate cancer. However, supplementation trials have not indicated a benefit of selenium supplementation in reducing cancer risk. Polymorphisms in the gene encoding selenoprotein 15 (SELENOF) are associated with cancer incidence/mortality and present disproportionately in African Americans. Relationships among the genotype of selenoproteins implicated in increased cancer risk, selenium status, and race with prostate cancer were investigated. Methods: Tissue microarrays were used to assess SELENOF levels and cellular location in prostatic tissue. Sera and DNA from participants of the Chicago-based Adiposity Study Cohort were used to quantify selenium levels and genotype frequencies of the genes for SELENOF and the selenium-carrier protein selenoprotein P (SELENOP). Logistic regression models for dichotomous patient outcomes and regression models for continuous outcome were employed to identify both clinical, genetic, and biochemical characteristics that are associated with these outcomes. Results: SELENOF is dramatically reduced in prostate cancer and lower in tumors derived from African American men as compared to tumors obtained from Caucasians. Differing frequency of SELENOF polymorphisms and lower selenium levels were observed in African Americans as compared to Caucasians. SELENOF genotypes were associated with higher histological tumor grade. A polymorphism in SELENOP was associated with recurrence and higher serum PSA. Conclusions: These results indicate an interaction between selenium status and selenoprotein genotypes that may contribute to the disparity in prostate cancer incidence and outcome experienced by African Americans.

A deductive statistical mechanics approach for granular matter

Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We introduce a deductive statistical mechanics approach for granular materials which is formally built from few realistic physical assumptions. The main finding is an universal behavior for the distribution of the density fluctuations. Such a distribution is the equivalent of the Maxwell-Boltzmann's distribution in the kinetic theory of gasses. The comparison with a very extensive set of experimental and simulation data for packings of monosized spherical grains, reveals a remarkably good quantitative agreement with the theoretical predictions for the density fluctuations both at the grain level and at the global system level. Such agreement is robust over a broad range of packing fractions and it is observed in several distinct systems prepared by using different methods. The equilibrium distributions are characterized by only one parameter ($k$) which is a quantity very sensitive to changes in the structural organization. The thermodynamical equivalent of $k$ and its relation with the `granular temperature' are also discussed.

description: Stochastic simulation has been a powerful tool for studying the dynamics of gene regulatory networks, particularly in terms of understanding how cell-phenotype stability and fate-transitions are impacted by noisy gene expression. However, gene networks often have dynamics characterized by multiple attractors. Stochastic simulation is often inefficient for such systems, because most of the simulation time is spent waiting for rare, barrier-crossing events to occur. We present a rare-event simulation-based method for computing epigenetic landscapes and phenotype-transitions in metastable gene networks. Our computational pipeline was inspired by studies of metastability and barrier-crossing in protein folding, and provides an automated means of computing and visualizing essential stationary and dynamic information that is generally inaccessible to conventional simulation. Applied to a network model of pluripotency in Embryonic Stem Cells, our simulations revealed rare phenotypes and approximately Markovian transitions among phenotype-states, occurring with a broad range of timescales. The relative probabilities of phenotypes and the transition paths linking pluripotency and differentiation are sensitive to global kinetic parameters governing transcription factor-DNA binding kinetics. Our approach significantly expands the capability of stochastic simulation to investigate gene regulatory network dynamics, which may help guide rational cell reprogramming strategies. Our approach is also generalizable to other types of molecular networks and stochastic dynamics frameworks.

description: Abstract: "A deductive framework is introduced to assist with elucidation of chemical reaction pathways. Given an overall, unbalanced, reaction scheme, a list of specific pathways is inferred that account for the transformation of the reagents into known products. One use of the framework is to infer a list of simplest such pathways, i.e., those having fewest steps and species. This list can serve as an initial set of candidate hypotheses. For some reaction schemes, the list of simplest pathways contains only a few candidates. The scope of our current implementation consists of all three-step pathways, having any number of species."

A finite element approach for modelling the fracture behaviour of unidirectional FFF-printed parts

description: We present a finite element modelling approach for unidirectional Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF)-printed specimens under tensile loading. In this study, the focus is on the fracture behaviour, the goal is to simulate the mechanical behaviour of specimens with different strand orientations until final failure of the specimens. In particular, the aim is to represent experimentally observed failure modes for different print orientations and the typical dependence of the parts strength on the print orientation. We investigate several modelling aspects like the choice of a suitable failure criterion, a suitable way to represent fracture in the finite element mesh or the necessary level of detail when modelling the characteristic edges of FFF-printed specimens. As a result, this work provides an approach to model FFF printed specimens in finite element simulations, which can represent the characteristic relation between mesostructural layout and macroscopic fracture behaviour.

description: Motivation: In the study of many systems, cells are ﬁrst synchronized so that a large population of cells exhibit similar behavior. While synchronization can usually be achieved for a short duration, after a while cells begin to lose their synchronization. Synchronization loss is a continuous process and so the observed value in a population of cells for a gene at time is actually a convolution of its values in an interval around Deconvolving the observed values from a mixed population . will allow us to obtain better models for these systems and to accurately detect the genes that participate in these systems. Results: We present an algorithm which combines budding index and gene expression data to deconvolve expression pro- ﬁles. Using the budding index data we ﬁrst ﬁt a synchronization loss model for the cell cycle system. Our deconvolution algorithm uses this loss model and can also use information from co-expressed genes, making it more robust against noise and missing values. Using expression and budding data for yeast we show that our algorithm is able to reconstruct a more accurate representation when compared with the observed values. In addition, using the deconvolved proﬁles we are able to correctly identify 15% more cycling genes when compared to a set identiﬁed using the observed values. the supporting website:

description: One of the key findings in a number of recent studies has been that small and medium sized manufacturers (SMEs) have been slow in adopting digital solutions within their organisations. Cost is understood to be one of the key barriers to adoption. Digital Manufacturing on a Shoestring is an approach to increasing the digital capabilities of SMEs via a series of low cost solutions. The programme proposes using off-the-shelf, (possibly non-industrial) components and software to address a company’s (digital) solution needs, adding capabilities one step at a time with minimal a priori infrastructure required. This paper will introduce the Digital Manufacturing on a Shoestring programme as a whole and demonstrate the way in which it addresses the need for low cost digital solutions for SME Manufacturers. It will discuss challenges associated with integrating low cost technologies into industrial solutions and the style of IT architectures best suited for integrating such solutions into industrial environments.

description: In this work we present a fast occupancy map building approach based on the VDB datastructure. Existing log- odds based occupancy mapping systems are often not able to keep up with the high point densities and framerates of modern sensors. Therefore, we suggest a highly optimized approach based on a modern datastructure coming from a computer graphic background. A multithreaded insertion scheme allows occupancy map building at unprecedented speed. Multiple optimizations allow for a customizable tradeoff between runtime and map quality. We first demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach quantitatively on a set of ablation studies and typical benchmark sets, before we practically demonstrate the system using a legged robot and a UAV.

description: We investigate the attractor mechanism in Kaluza-Klein black hole solution in the presence of higher derivative terms. In particular, we discuss the attractor behavior of static black holes by using the effective potential approach as well as entropy function formalism. We consider different higher derivative terms with a general coupling to moduli field. For the $R^2$ theory, we use effective potential approach, looking for solutions which are analytic near the horizon and show that they exist and enjoy the attractor behavior. The attractor point is determined by extremization of the modified effective potential at the horizon. We study the effect of the general higher derivative corrections of $R^n$ terms. Using the entropy function we define the modified effective potential and we find the conditions to have the attractor solution. In particular for a single charged Kaluza-Klein black hole solution we show that higher derivative correction dresses the naked singularity for an appropriate coupling, and we can find the attractor solution.

description: We study the Josephson effect between a conventional s-wave superconductor and a non-centrosymmetric superconductor with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Rashba spin-orbit coupling affects the Josephson pair tunneling in a characteristic way. The Josephson coupling can be decomposed into two parts, a `spin-singlet-like' and a `spin-triplet-like' component. The latter component can lead to shift of the Josephson phase by πrelative to the former coupling. This has important implications on interference effects and may explain some recent experimental results for the Al/CePt3Si junction.

description: This paper concerns the development of low-cost solutions to address challenges in digital manufacturing (DM). Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) are a promising approach for addressing the requirements of a low-cost DM architecture. Interaction between services in a SOA is facilitated by a connectivity technology, i.e., a framework for interoperable data exchange between heterogeneous participants. We review a variety of connectivity technologies according to their suitability for use in an SME manufacturer’s production environment, and we assess how they have been integrated into past architectures. We then provide insights into an incremental and modular architecture for manufacturing SMEs.

description: In this study, we investigated the use of particle filtering in reconstructing time-varying input visual signals based on Macaque V1 neurons’ responses. A multitude of hypothesis particles are proposed for reconstructing the input stimulus up to time t. A prediction kernel (consisting of the first- and second-order forward Wiener kernels, derived by regression) is used to predict the neural response at time t based on the estimated input signals in the 200 ms prior to t. The fitness of this estimated response in predicting the measured response at time t is used to weigh the importance of the various hypotheses. The hypothesis particle space is collapsed by re-sampling over time. We find this method quite successful in reconstructing the input stimulus for 30 out of 33 V1 neurons measured. It out performs the optimal linear decoder that we have experimented with in the past

description: In diesem Beitrag wird das Zukunftsthema Digitalisierung im Bereich der 1 Altlastensanierung hinsichtlich des autonomen Einsatzes schwerer Arbeitsmaschinen in kontaminierten Bereichen beleuchtet. Der Schwerpunkt dabei ist die Autonomiebefähigung für schwere Baumaschinen, so dass diese (Teil-)Aufgaben beispielsweise im Rahmen von Bodensanierungsmaßnahmen selbstständig erledigen können. Dazu müssen die handelsüblichen Geräte derzeit meist noch baulich verändert werden, was an zwei Beispielen illustriert wird. Die größte Herausforderung ist es aktuell, die Fähigkeiten des Menschen so nachzubilden, dass die schweren Arbeitsmaschinen bei der Ausführung der Autonomiefunktionen ebenso intelligent vorgehen. Da eine schwere Arbeitsmaschine, die von Algorithmen gesteuert wird, letztlich nichts anderes als ein großer mobiler Roboter ist, werden in diesem Beitrag die robotischen Aufgaben beschrieben, die es zu lösen gilt und wie diese Aufgaben im Kompetenzzentrum ROBDEKON exemplarisch an einem Raupenbagger und einem Schreitbagger gelöst wurden. Dieser Beitrag bietet einen Einblick in technische Details und die komplexen Hintergründe im Zusammenhang mit dem Praxiseinsatz von Robotersystemen in der Altlastensanierung.

D'ailleurs, j'ai à présent une occasion pour Montpellier que peut-être ne trouverais-je pas ensuite. Je vous envoie aussi un exemplaire d'un de mes mémoires sur les tremblements de terre que je désire être lu à l'Académie de Nîmes. M`étant coupé un peu le pouce + il ne m'a pas été possible de le copier moi-même. J'en ai fait faire une copie qui n'est pas élégante et où il pourrait y avoir quelques fautes que je prie d'excuser, comme étant du copiste. Je serais charmé de savoir votre sentiment, celui de l'Académie et celui du père Paulhian dont j'attends depuis longtemps une réponse. Je vous prie de lui faire bien des compliments... Il me paraît que les objections qu'on peut faire contre mon paratremblement de terre sont les mêmes qui furent faites contre Franklin, lorsqu'il proposa ses conducteurs. La réponse est la même et quiconque est persuadé que les tremblements de terre, comme les tonnerres, sont des phénomènes électriques et que les pointes détruisent l'électricité ou dépouillent un corps électrique de sa vertu, comme l'expérience l'a prouvé, doit être convaincu de la bonté de nos appareils. Pour ne pas manquer une occasion qui se présente, la personne allant partir dans le moment, je me hâte de vous assurer de nouveau de l'attachement respectueux avec lequel j'ai l'honneur d'être,

description: Incremental Learning scenarios do not always represent real-world inference use-cases, which tend to have less strict task boundaries, and exhibit repetition of common classes and concepts in their continual data stream. To better represent these use-cases, new scenarios with partial repetition and mixing of tasks are proposed, where the repetition patterns are innate to the scenario and unknown to the strategy. We investigate how exemplar-free incremental learning strategies are affected by data repetition, and we adapt a series of state-of-the-art approaches to analyse and fairly compare them under both settings. Further, we also propose a novel method (Horde), able to dynamically adjust an ensemble of self-reliant feature extractors, and align them by exploiting class repetition. Our proposed exemplar-free method achieves competitive results in the classic scenario without repetition, and state-of-the-art performance in the one with repetition.

description: Decoding is a strategy that allows us to assess the amount of information neurons can provide about certain aspects of the visual scene. In this study, we develop a method based on Bayesian sequential updating and the particle filtering algorithm to decode the activity of V1 neurons in awake monkeys. A distinction in our method is the use of Volterra kernels to filter the particles, which live in a high dimensional space. This parametric Bayesian decoding scheme is compared to the optimal linear decoder and is shown to work consistently better than the linear optimal decoder. Interestingly, our results suggest that for decoding in real time, spike trains of as few as 10 independent but similar neurons would be sufficient for decoding a critical scene variable in a particular class of visual stimuli. The reconstructed variable can predict the neural activity about as well as the actual signal with respect to the Volterra kernels.

description: All organizations have to balance insider risk management and employee privacy. Organizations should aim to monitor activity while maintaining employees’ trust and privacy based on organizational risk appetite, culture, and compliance needs. Despite the lack of a comprehensive, federal privacy regulation like the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), states such as California are instituting their own privacy mandates. State-based protections can have wide-spread impact, causing many organizations to rethink or change their insider risk management practices. This blog post reviews the general framework of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA),  describes specific implications for insider risk  management, and provides recommendations to prepare insider risk programs to mitigate concerns before the CCPA takes effect.

Application of Machine Learning to Identify Radio Pulses of Air Showers at the South Pole (ARENA 2024)

description: Machine learning is a useful tool for identifying radio pulses from cosmic-ray air showers and for cleaning such pulses from radio background. This can lower the detection threshold and increase the accuracy for the pulse time and amplitude. We have trained Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) using CoREAS simulations and background recorded by a prototype station at the IceTop surface array at the South Pole and have applied them to air-shower measurements by this station. The station consists of 3 SKALA antennas and 8 scintillators, which are used to trigger the readout of the antennas upon a sixfold coincidence. Afterwards, the radio signal is filtered to the band of 70-350 MHz. By applying neural networks to search for radio signals in about four months of data, we find about five times more events than by a traditional method based on a signal-to-noise ratio cut after filtering for radio frequency interferences. Despite the lower threshold, the purity of the selected events seems to improve, and the angular resolution of the radio measurements does not deteriorate, which we have confirmed by a comparison of the reconstructed shower direction with IceTop. This analysis thus provides experimental confirmation that neural networks can indeed be used to clean air-shower radio signals from background and to lower the radio detection threshold of hybrid arrays combining particle and radio detectors.

In a Few Words: Comparing Weak Supervision and LLMs for Short Query Intent Classification

Subjects: subject: Information Retrieval (cs.IR)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: User intent classification is an important task in information retrieval. Previously, user intents were classified manually and automatically; the latter helped to avoid hand labelling of large datasets. Recent studies explored whether LLMs can reliably determine user intent. However, researchers have recognized the limitations of using generative LLMs for classification tasks. In this study, we empirically compare user intent classification into informational, navigational, and transactional categories, using weak supervision and LLMs. Specifically, we evaluate LLaMA-3.1-8B-Instruct and LLaMA-3.1-70B-Instruct for in-context learning and LLaMA-3.1-8B-Instruct for fine-tuning, comparing their performance to an established baseline classifier trained using weak supervision (ORCAS-I). Our results indicate that while LLMs outperform weak supervision in recall, they continue to struggle with precision, which shows the need for improved methods to balance both metrics effectively.

description: In this report we present an overarching summary of the climate risk and resilience assessments conducted between 2019 and 2022 in the frame of the Morgenstadt Smart Cities Global Initiative, with a focus on Kochi (India), Piura (Peru), and Saltillo (Mexico). In the first section we present the three cities’ profiles, as well as major climate-related risks and vulnerabilities. In the second section we highlight different adaptation measures and governance best practices, accompanied by specific examples of actions undertaken in the three different contexts. The publication is intended as a call to action and guidance for policy makers, scholars, practitioners, and citizens to develop more local solutions and strategies to be prepared for the challenges derived from climate change. Moreover, it introduces a methodology that can be replicated in other cities to better understand climate-related risks and vulnerabilities and increase resilience to the respective impact. Finally, it provides insights into different implementation projects in middle- and low-income countries which aim at harmonizing the objectives of the Paris Agreement and the Agenda 2030 when tackling climate change issues.
Relativistic Electrons — The Key to Coherent Auroral Emissions

description: The study investigates the role of relativistic electron precipitation (REP) in the generation of coherent auroral radio emissions in the 1–10 MHz band, with a particular focus on the mechanisms governing cyclotron maser instability in Earth's magnetosphere. Using a multi-instrument, multi-scale dataset comprising satellite measurements from Van Allen Probes, Arase, and THEMIS, in conjunction with ground-based observatories such as EISCAT and HAARP, the author identifies a critical energy threshold of (1.82 ± 0.18) MeV for REP events capable of triggering coherent radio emissions

Through Bayesian threshold analysis and wavelet-based temporal-spectral correlation techniques, the paper establishes a statistically significant correlation (r ≈ 0.82, p < 0.001) between suprathreshold electron fluxes and narrowband radio signatures characterized by high quality factors (Q > 15) and right-hand circular polarization. Spectral analysis reveals emissions with peak frequencies tied to local gyrofrequencies and narrow bandwidths (Δf ≈ 0.1–0.3 MHz), temporally coincident with electron microbursts on sub-100 ms timescales.

The proposed mechanism is grounded in cyclotron resonance conditions and anisotropic electron velocity distributions, satisfying the classical criteria for electron cyclotron maser instability. The results not only provide empirical confirmation of theoretical predictions but also challenge existing paradigms of quasi-linear diffusion by highlighting the importance of nonlinear phase-locking and particle bunching effects.

Moreover, the findings carry significant implications for space weather modeling. Specifically, the identified energy threshold and emission characteristics offer a novel diagnostic for real-time forecasting of ionospheric radio noise environments during geomagnetic disturbances. The study further recommends incorporating relativistic electron-driven emissions into next-generation magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling models and global radiation belt simulations.

description: As one of the basic components of phononics, thermal diodes transmit heat current asymmetrically similar to electronic rectifiers and diodes in microelectronics. Heat can be conducted through them easily in one direction while being blocked in the other direction. In this work, we report an easily-fabricated mesoscale chemical vapor deposited (CVD) diamond thermal diode without sharp temperature change driven by the gradient grain structure of CVD diamond membranes. We build a spectral model of diamond thermal conductivity with complete phonon dispersion relation to show significant thermal rectification in CVD diamond membranes. To explain the observed thermal rectification, the temperature and thermal conductivity distribution in the CVD diamond membrane are studied. Additionally, the effects of temperature bias and diamond membrane thickness are discussed, which shed light on tuning the thermal rectification in CVD diamond membranes. The conical grain structure makes CVD diamond membranes, and potentially other CVD film structures with gradient grain structure, excellent candidates for easily-fabricated mesoscale thermal diodes without a sharp temperature change.
