description: Accurately estimating the prognosis of septic patients on arrival in the emergency department (ED) is clinically challenging. The lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR) has recently been proposed to improve the predictive performance of septic patients admitted to the ICU. This study aims to assess whether the LAR could be used as an early prognostic marker of 30-day mortality in patients with sepsis in the ED. A prospective observational study was conducted in the ED of the Hospital of Merano. All patients with a diagnosis of sepsis were considered. The LAR was recorded on arrival in the ED. The primary outcome measure was mortality at 30 days. The predictive role of the LAR for mortality was evaluated with the area under the ROC curve, logistic regression adjusted for the Charlson Comorbidity Index value, National Early Warning Score, and Sequential Organ Failure score, and with decision tree analysis. 459 patients were enrolled, of whom 17% (78/459) died at 30 days. The median LAR of the patients who died at 30 days (0.78 [0.45–1.19]) was significantly higher than the median LAR of survivors (0.42 [0.27–0.65]) (p < 0.001). The discriminatory ability of the LAR for death at 30 days was 0.738, higher than that of lactate alone (0.692), and slightly lower than that of albumin alone (0.753). The decision trees confirmed the role of the LAR as an independent risk factor for mortality. The LAR can be used as an index to better predict the 30-day risk of death in septic patients.

Magnonic Floquet Quantum Spin Hall Insulator in Bilayer Collinear Antiferromagnets

description: We study irradiated two-dimensional insulating bilayer honeycomb ferromagnets and antiferromagnets coupled antiferromagnetically with a zero net magnetization. The former is realized in the recently synthesized bilayer honeycomb chromium triiodide CrI$_{\bf 3}$. In both systems, we show that circularly-polarized electric field breaks time-reversal symmetry and induces a dynamical Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in each honeycomb layer. However, the resulting bilayer antiferromagnetic system still preserves a combination of time-reversal and space-inversion ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetry. We show that the magnon topology of the bilayer antiferromagnetic system is characterized by a $\pmb{\mathbb{Z}_2}$ Floquet topological invariant. Therefore, the system realizes a magnonic Floquet quantum spin Hall insulator with spin filtered magnon edge states. This leads to a non-vanishing Floquet magnon spin Nernst effect, whereas the Floquet magnon thermal Hall effect vanishes due to $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry. We study the rich $\pmb{\mathbb{Z}_2}$ Floquet topological magnon phase diagram of the system as a function of the light amplitudes and polarizations. We further discuss the great impact of the results on future experimental realizations.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It is shown that the nonequilibrium steady-state of a phase-coherent conductor can be described by a generalized thermodynamic potential based on the concept of partial densities of states. This is possible due to the fact that dissipation takes place only in the contacts for the emitted carriers. Long-range Coulomb interaction is included, and charge conservation and gauge invariance are satisfied. The theory is illustrated for a mesoscopic capacitor with leakage.

A length scale for non-local multi-scale gradient interactions in isotropic turbulence
Creators: name: Encinar, Miguel P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Three-dimensional turbulent flows enhance velocity gradients via strong non-linear interactions of the rate-of-strain tensor with the vorticity vector, and with itself. For statistically homogeneous flows, their total contributions to gradient production are related to each other by conservation of mass, and so are the total enstrophy and total dissipation. However, locally they do not obey this relation and have different (often extreme) values, and for this reason both production mechanisms have been subject to numerous studies, often decomposed in multiscale interactions. In general lines, their dynamics and contributions to the cascade processes and turbulent kinetic dissipation are different, which posses a difficulty for turbulence modelling. In this paper, we explore the consequence of the 'Betchov' relations locally, and show that they implicitly define a length scale. This length scale is found to be about three times the size of the turbulent structures and their interactions. It is also found that while the non-locality of the dissipation and enstrophy at a given scale comes mostly from larger scales that do not cancel, the non-local production of strain and vorticity comes from multiscale interactions. An important consequence of this work is that isotropic cascade models need not distinguish between vortex stretching and strain self-amplification, but can instead consider both entities part of a more complex transfer mechanism, provided that their detailed point-value is not required and a local average of reasonable size is sufficient.

description: Monte Carlo simulations alone could not clarify the corrections to scaling for the size-dependent p_c(L) above the upper critical dimension. Including the previous series estimate for the bulk threshold $p_c(\infty)$ gives preference for the complicated corrections predicted by renormalization group and against the simple 1/L extrapolation. Additional Monte-Carlo simulations using the Leath method corroborate the series result for p_c.

description: Two-dimensional magnetic insulators exhibit a plethora of competing ground states, such as ordered (anti)ferromagnets, exotic quantum spin liquid states with topological order and anyonic excitations, and random singlet phases emerging in highly disordered frustrated magnets. Here we show how single spin qubits, which interact directly with the low-energy excitations of magnetic insulators, can be used as a diagnostic of magnetic ground states. Experimentally tunable parameters, such as qubit level splitting, sample temperature, and qubit-sample distance, can be used to measure spin correlations with energy and wavevector resolution. Such resolution can be exploited, for instance, to distinguish between fractionalized excitations in spin liquids and spin waves in magnetically ordered states, or to detect anyonic statistics in gapped systems.

description: This study aimed to critically assess existing risk prediction models for postoperative mortality in older individuals with hip fractures, with the objective of offering substantive insights for their clinical application. A comprehensive search was conducted across prominent databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, SinoMed, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang, spanning original articles in both Chinese and English up until 1 December 2023. Two researchers independently extracted pertinent research characteristics, such as predictors, model performance metrics, and modeling methodologies. Additionally, the bias risk and applicability of the incorporated risk prediction models were systematically evaluated using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST). Within the purview of this investigation, a total of 21 studies were identified, constituting 21 original risk prediction models. The discriminatory capacity of the included risk prediction models, as denoted by the minimum and maximum areas under the subject operating characteristic curve, ranged from 0.710 to 0.964. Noteworthy predictors, recurrent across various models, included age, sex, comorbidities, and nutritional status. However, among the models assessed through the PROBAST framework, only one was deemed to exhibit a low risk of bias. Beyond this assessment, the principal limitations observed in risk prediction models pertain to deficiencies in data analysis, encompassing insufficient sample size and suboptimal handling of missing data. Subsequent research endeavors should adopt more stringent experimental designs and employ advanced statistical methodologies in the construction of risk prediction models. Moreover, large-scale external validation studies are warranted to rigorously assess the generalizability and clinical utility of existing models, thereby enhancing their relevance as valuable clinical references.

description: Mobile applications (apps) are integral to our daily lives, offering diverse services and functionalities. They enable sighted users to access information coherently in an extremely convenient manner. However, it remains unclear if visually impaired users, who rely solely on the screen readers (e.g., Talkback) to navigate and access app information, can do so in the correct and reasonable order. This may result in significant information bias and operational errors. Considering these issues, in this work, we proposed a method named RGNF (Re-draw GUI Navigation Flow). It aimed to enhance the understandability and coherence of accessing the content of each component within the Graphical User Interface (GUI), together with assisting developers in creating well-designed GUI navigation flow (GNF). This method was inspired by the characteristics identified in our preliminary study, where visually impaired users expected navigation to be associated with close position and similar shape of GUI components that were read consecutively. Thus, our method relied on the principles derived from the Gestalt psychological model, aiming to group GUI components into different regions according to the laws of proximity and similarity, thereby redrawing the GNFs. To evaluate the effectiveness of our method, we calculated sequence similarity values before and after redrawing the GNF, and further employed the tools proposed by Alotaibi et al. to measure the reachability of GUI components. Our results demonstrated a substantial improvement in similarity (0.921) compared to the baseline (0.624), together with the reachability (90.31%) compared to the baseline GNF (74.35%). Furthermore, a qualitative user study revealed that our method had a positive effect on providing visually impaired users with an improved user experience.

description: A high-quality land-use dataset is crucial for constructing a high-performance land-use classification model. Due to the complexity and spatial heterogeneity of land-use, the dataset construction process is inefficient and costly. This challenge affects the quality of datasets, consequently impacting the model’s performance. The emerging field of Data-Centric Artificial Intelligence (DCAI) is expected to deliver techniques for dataset optimization, offering a promising solution to the problem. Therefore, this study proposes a data-centric framework named DCAI-CLUD for the construction of land-use datasets. Based on this framework, the accuracy and rate of data labeling are improved by 5.93 and 28.97%. The Gini index of the dataset and the proportion of samples with non-mixed land-use categories are enhanced by 3.27 and 8.52%. The overall accuracy (OA) and Kappa of the land-use classification model improved significantly by 27.87 and 58.08%. This study is the first to introduce DCAI into the field of geographic information and remote sensing and verify its effectiveness. The proposed framework can effectively improve the construction efficiency and quality of the dataset and synchronously optimize the model performance. Based on the proposed framework, we constructed a multi-source land-use dataset of major cities in China named CN-MSLU-100K. A framework for optimizing the land-use dataset construction process is proposed.Filtering and pre-labeling improved the quality and efficiency of data labeling.The performance of land-use classification model is enhanced by dataset optimization.Preconceived results have a subjective impact on the data labelers.The first study to introduce DCAI for land-use classification is launched.

description: Real-world data is crucial to inform existing opportunistic colorectal cancer (CRC) prevention programs. This study aimed to assess CRC screening adherence and utilization of various screening modalities within a Primary Care network over a three-year period (2017–2019). A retrospective review of individuals aged 50–75 years at average CRC risk, with at least one clinic visit in the previous 24 months. The primary outcome, CRC screening adherence (overall and by modality) was examined among the entire eligible population and newly adherent individuals each calendar year. The final sample included 107,366 patients and 218,878 records. Overall CRC screening adherence increased from 71% in 2017 to 78% in 2019. For “up-to-date” individuals, colonoscopy was the predominant modality (accounting for approximately 74%, versus 4% of adherence for non-invasive options). However, modality utilization trends changed over time in these individuals: mt-sDNA increased 10.2-fold, followed by FIT (1.6-fold) and colonoscopy (1.1-fold). Among newly adherent individuals, the proportion screened by colonoscopy and FOBT decreased over time (89% to 80% and 2.4% to 1.2%, respectively), while uptake of FIT and mt-sDNA increased (7.7% to 11.5% and 0.9% to 6.8%, respectively). Notably, FIT and mt-sDNA increases were most evident in age and race-ethnicity groups with the lowest screening rates. In an opportunistic CRC screening program, adherence increased but remained below the national 80% goal. While colonoscopy remained the most utilized modality, new colonoscopy uptake declined, compared with rising mt-sDNA and FIT utilization. Among minority populations, new uptake increased most with mt-sDNA and FIT.

description: The Graphical User Interface (GUI) plays a critical role in the interaction between users and mobile applications (apps), aiming at facilitating the operation process. However, due to the variety of functions and non-standardized design, GUIs might have many accessibility issues, like the size of components being too small or their intervals being narrow. These issues would hinder the operation of low vision users, preventing them from obtaining information accurately and conveniently. Although several technologies and methods have been proposed to address these issues, they are typically confined to issue identification, leaving the resolution in the hands of developers. Moreover, it can be challenging to ensure that the color, size, and interval of the fixed GUIs are appropriately compared to the original ones. In this work, we propose a novel approach named AccessFixer, which utilizes the Relational-Graph Convolutional Neural Network (R-GCN) to simultaneously fix three kinds of accessibility issues, including small sizes, narrow intervals, and low color contrast in GUIs. With AccessFixer, the fixed GUIs would have a consistent color palette, uniform intervals, and adequate size changes achieved through coordinated adjustments to the attributes of related components. Our experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and usefulness of AccessFixer in fixing GUI accessibility issues. After fixing 30 real-world apps, our approach solves an average of 81.2% of their accessibility issues. Also, we apply AccessFixer to 10 open-source apps by submitting the fixed results with pull requests (PRs) on GitHub. The results demonstrate that developers approve of our submitted fixed GUIs, with 8 PRs being merged or under fixing. A user study examines that low vision users host a positive attitude toward the GUIs fixed by our method.

description: A novel, nonperturbative, way to generate chiral symmetry breaking within the linear sigma model for 3 flavours is discussed. After spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in the vacuum at the tree level the scalar nonet obtains mass, while the pseudoscalars are massless. Then, including quantum loops in a nonperturbative, self-consistent way chiral symmetry is broken by nonplanar graphs in a second step, and also the pseudoscalars become massive. By interpreting the basic symmetry to be a discrete permutation symmetry, in accord with superselection rules, no additional Goldstone bosons are expected.

description: Magnetic skyrmion bags with diverse topological charges Q, offer prospects for future spintronic devices based on freedom of Q. While their emergence in van der Waals magnets holds the potential in developing Q-based 2D topological spintronics. However, previous room-temperature skyrmion bags necessitate special anisotropy engineering through disorder Fe intercalation, and the stable phase diagram for skyrmion bags across room temperature regions is lacking. Here, we demonstrate the observation and electrical manipulation of room temperature skyrmion bags in Fe3-xGaTe2 without specially designed Fe intercalation. Combining the pulsed currents with the assistance of magnetic fields, skyrmion bags with various topological charges are generated and annihilated. Especially double nested skyrmion bags are also discovered at room temperature. The stable temperature-field diagram of skyrmion bags has been established. We also demonstrate the electrical-controlled topological phase transformations of skyrmion bags. Our results will provide novel insights for the design of 2D skyrmion-based high-performance devices.

description: This paper presents a policy for service placement of fog applications inspired on complex networks and graph theory. We propose a twofold partition process based on communities for the partition of the fog devices and based on transitive closures for the application services partition. The allocation of the services is performed sequentially by, firstly, mapping applications to device communities and, secondly, mapping service transitive closures to fog devices in the community. The underlying idea is to place as many inter-related services as possible in the most nearby devices to the users. The optimization objectives are the availability of the applications and the Quality of Service (QoS) of the system, measured as the number of requests that are executed before the application deadlines. We compared our solution with an Integer Linear Programming approach, and the simulation results showed that our proposal obtains higher QoS and availability when fails in the nodes are considered.

description: Abstract

Based on the Pentagon fraud theory and Planned Behavior theory, this study aimed to see the factors influencing fraud behavior in the planning and budgeting process. Each of these factors is represented by proxies of external pressure (pressure), information system weaknesses (opportunity), organizational ethical culture (rationalization), arrogance and intention, as well as attitudes, subjective norms, and behavioral control (capability). The research sample was determined using the purposive sampling method, consisting of Inspectorate Auditors, Provincial TAPD, District/City TAPD, Provincial Planning Section, District/City Planning Section, Provincial BPKAD Budget Field, and District/City BPKAD Budget Field in North Maluku Province. The data were analyzed by descriptive quantitative methods, which were tested using Partial Least Square (PLS). The results showed that pressure, opportunity, and rationalization positively affect fraud in planning and budgeting; attitude and arrogance do not affect the intention to commit fraud. In contrast, behavioral control affects the intent to commit fraud, and the intention to commit fraud affects fraud in planning and budgeting.

Physical validity of anisotropic models derived from isotropic fluid dynamics in $f(R,T)$ theory: An implication of gravitational decoupling

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: In this paper, we derive multiple anisotropic analogs from the established isotropic model by means of the gravitational decoupling approach in a fluid-geometry interaction based theory. To accomplish this, we initially consider a static spherical perfect-fluid configuration and then introduce a new matter source to induce anisotropic behavior in the system. The resulting field equations encapsulate the entire matter distribution and thus become much complicated. We then split these equations into two sets through implementing a particular transformation, each set delineating characteristics attributed to their original fluid sources. We adopt the Heintzmann's ansatz and some constraints on extra gravitating source to deal with the first and second systems of equations, respectively. Furthermore, the two fundamental forms of the matching criteria are used to make the constant in the considered solution known. By utilizing the preliminary information of a star candidate LMC X-4, we assess the physical validity of the developed models. Our analysis indicates that both our models exhibit characteristics which are well-agreed with the acceptability criteria for certain parametric values.

Comment on Vortex Mass and Quantum Tunneling of Vortices

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Vortex mass in Fermi superfluids and superconductors and its influence on quantum tunneling of vortices are discussed. The vortex mass is essentially enhanced due to the fermion zero modes in the core of the vortex: the bound states of the Bogoliubov qiasiparticles localized in the core. These bound states form the normal component which is nonzero even in the low temperature limit. In the collisionless regime $ω_0τ\gg 1$, the normal component trapped by the vortex is unbound from the normal component in the bulk superfluid/superconductors and adds to the inertial mass of the moving vortex. In the d-wave superconductors, the vortex mass has an additional factor $(B_{c2}/B)^{1/2}$ due to the gap nodes.

description: The differences on the thermal behavior (DTA-TG) of mica samples measured before and after sonication have been studied. Sonication treatment produces important modifications in the thermal behavior of muscovite and biotite samples. For muscovite, it produces a broadening and decrease in temperature of the dehydroxylation and crystallization effects, reaching a steady stage after 40 h treatment time. For biotite, the original single peak profile for the dehydroxylation of the untreated sample is converted into a two peaks profile after sonication, the intensity of the low temperature peak increases with sonication time, while the intensity of the high temperature peak decreases. The modification of the thermal behavior for sonicated samples has been correlated to the particle size distribution effect produced by the sonication treatment. It has been also observed that the cup tip of the sonication equipment contaminates the samples releasing titanium of its composition
Genetic Algorithm for Multi-Objective Optimization of Container Allocation in Cloud Architecture

description: The use of containers in cloud architectures has become widespread because of advantages such as limited overhead, easier and faster deployment and higher portability. Moreover, they are a suitable architectural solution for deployment of applications created using a microservices development pattern. Despite the large number of solutions and implementations, open issues have not been addressed in container automation and management. Container resource allocation influences system performance and resource consumption so it is a key factor for cloud providers. We propose a genetic algorithm approach, using the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II), to optimize container allocation and elasticity management due to the good results obtained with this algorithm in other resource management optimization problems in cloud architectures. The optimization has been focused on a tight use of the resources and a reduction of the network overhead and system failure rate. A model for cloud cluster, containers, microservices and four optimization objectives is presented. Experimental results have shown that our approach is a suitable solution to address the problem of container allocation and elasticity and it obtains better objectives values than the container management policies implemented in Kubernetes.

A lightweight decentralized service placement policy for performance optimization in fog computing

description: A decentralized optimization policy for service placement in fog computing is presented. The optimization is addressed to place most popular services as closer to the users as possible. The experimental validation is done in the iFogSim simulator and by comparing our algorithm with the simulator's built-in policy. The simulation is characterized by modeling a microservice-based application for different experiment sizes. Results showed that our decentralized algorithm places most popular services closer to users, improving network usage and service latency of the most requested applications, at the expense of a latency increment for the less requested services and a greater number of service migrations.
The Vacuum Einstein Equations via Holonomy around Closed Loops on Characteristic Surfaces

description: We reformulate the standard local equations of general relativity for asymptotically flat spacetimes in terms of two non-local quantities, the holonomy $H$ around certain closed null loops on characteristic surfaces and the light cone cut function $Z$, which describes the intersection of the future null cones from arbitrary spacetime points, with future null infinity. We obtain a set of differential equations for $H$ and $Z$ equivalent to the vacuum Einstein equations. By finding an algebraic relation between $H$ and $Z$ this set of equations is reduced to just two coupled equations: an integro-differential equation for $Z$ which yields the conformal structure of the underlying spacetime and a linear differential equation for the ``vacuum'' conformal factor. These equations, which apply to all vacuum asymptotically flat spacetimes, are however lengthy and complicated and we do not yet know of any solution generating technique. They nevertheless are amenable to an attractive perturbative scheme which has Minkowski space as a zeroth order solution.

description: Large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT-4 have raised critical questions regarding their distinguishability from human-generated content. In this research, we evaluated the effectiveness of online detection tools in identifying ChatGPT-4 vs human-written text. A two texts produced by ChatGPT-4 using differing prompts and one text created by a human author were analytically assessed using the following online detection tools: GPTZero, ZeroGPT, Writer ACD, and Originality. The findings revealed a notable variance in the detection capabilities of the employed detection tools. GPTZero and ZeroGPT exhibited inconsistent assessments regarding the AI-origin of the texts. Writer ACD predominantly identified texts as human-written, whereas Originality consistently recognized the AI-generated content in both samples from ChatGPT-4. This highlights Originality’s enhanced sensitivity to patterns characteristic of AI-generated text. The study demonstrates that while automatic detection tools may discern texts generated by ChatGPT-4 significant variability exists in their accuracy. Undoubtedly, there is an urgent need for advanced detection tools to ensure the authenticity and integrity of content, especially in scientific and academic research. However, our findings underscore an urgent need for more refined detection methodologies to prevent the misdetection of human-written content as AI-generated and vice versa.

description: We argue that the notion of pure sate within Standard Quantum Mechanics is presently applied within the specialized literature in relation to two mutually inconsistent definitions. While the first (operational purity) provides a basis-dependent definition which makes reference to the certain prediction of measurement outcomes, the latter (trace-invariant purity) provides a purely abstract invariant definition which lacks operational content. In this work we derive a theorem which exposes the serious inconsistencies existent within these two incompatible definitions of purity.

description: Douglass B. Morris announced in 1970 that it is consistent with ZF that "For every $α$, there exists a set $A_α$ which is the countable union of countable sets, and $\mathcal P(A_α)$ can be partitioned into $\aleph_α$ non-empty sets". The result was never published in a journal (it was proved in full in Morris' dissertation) and seems to have been lost, save a mention in Jech's "Axiom of Choice". We provide a proof using modern tools derived from recent work of the author. We also prove a new preservation theorem for general products of symmetric systems, which we use to obtain the consistency of Dependent Choice with the above statement (replacing "countable union of countable sets" by "union of $κ$ sets of size $κ$").
