description: Terrain traversability analysis is a fundamental issue to achieve the autonomy of a robot at off-road environments. Geometry-based and appearance-based methods have been studied in decades, while behavior-based methods exploiting learning from demonstration (LfD) are new trends. Behavior-based methods learn cost functions that guide trajectory planning in compliance with experts' demonstrations, which can be more scalable to various scenes and driving behaviors. This research proposes a method of off-road traversability analysis and trajectory planning using Deep Maximum Entropy Inverse Reinforcement Learning. To incorporate vehicle's kinematics while solving the problem of exponential increase of state-space complexity, two convolutional neural networks, i.e., RL ConvNet and Svf ConvNet, are developed to encode kinematics into convolution kernels and achieve efficient forward reinforcement learning. We conduct experiments in off-road environments. Scene maps are generated using 3D LiDAR data, and expert demonstrations are either the vehicle's real driving trajectories at the scene or synthesized ones to represent specific behaviors such as crossing negative obstacles. Different cost functions of traversability analysis are learned and tested at various scenes of capability in guiding the trajectory planning of different behaviors. We also demonstrate the performance and computation efficiency of the proposed method.

description: The problem of automatic identification of physical activities performed by human subjects is referred to as Human Activity Recognition (HAR). There exist several techniques to measure motion characteristics during these physical activities, such as Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). IMUs have a cornerstone position in this context, and are characterized by usage flexibility, low cost, and reduced privacy impact. With the use of inertial sensors, it is possible to sample some measures such as acceleration and angular velocity of a body, and use them to learn models that are capable of correctly classifying activities to their corresponding classes. In this paper, we propose to use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to classify human activities. Our models use raw data obtained from a set of inertial sensors. We explore several combinations of activities and sensors, showing how motion signals can be adapted to be fed into CNNs by using different network architectures. We also compare the performance of different groups of sensors, investigating the classification potential of single, double and triple sensor systems. The experimental results obtained on a dataset of 16 lower-limb activities, collected from a group of participants with the use of five different sensors, are very promising.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. 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. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Using national survey data on 1422 traders in 18 Chinese wholesale markets, we employ a probit model with sample selection to estimate the determinants of agricultural traders’ credit constraints. The econometric analysis shows that application costs that are highly related to social networks and imperfect screening of applicants by financial institutions both discourage potential borrowers and may make them become “self-rationing.” Credit-constrained traders account for 38.78% of traders seeking loans. The empirical results demonstrate that the probability of being credit-constrained is significantly lower for corporations, traders who have higher value assets, traders with more social networks, and traders in a better micro-finance environment.

description: This paper describes the methodology currently being implemented in the EIS pipeline for analysing optical/infrared multi-colour data. The aim is to identify different classes of objects as well as possible undesirable features associated with the construction of colour catalogues. The classification method used is based on the xi^2-fitting of template spectra to the observed SEDs, as measured through broad-band filters. Its main advantage is the simultaneous use of all colours, properly weighted by the photometric errors. In addition, it provides basic information on the properties of the classified objects (eg redshift, effective temperature). These characteristics make the xi^2-technique ideal for handling large multi-band datasets. The results are compared to the more traditional colour-colour selection and, whenever possible, to model predictions. In order to identify objects with odd colours, either associated with rare populations or to possible problems in the catalogue, outliers are searched for in the multi-dimensional colour space using a nearest-neighbour criterion. Outliers with large xi^2-values are individually inspected to further investigate their nature. The tools developed are used for a preliminary analysis of the multi-colour point source catalogue constructed from the optical/infrared imaging data obtained for the Chandra Deep Field South (CDF-S). These data are publicly available, representing the first installment of the ongoing EIS Deep Public Survey.

description: The Kyoto Protocol has clearly specified various methods and measures of reducing greenhouse gases, and the reduction of emissions using the land-use change and forestry (LUCF) methods has become legally enforced as well. Countries all over the world are actively developing their local emission trading mechanisms in hopes of aligning with those international standards. Among them, the carbon trading mechanism has been widely perceived by the world as an important economic instrument for reducing greenhouse gases. In this study, we first established a theoretical economic model of supply and demand for four carbon trading mechanisms, and then derived the optimal conditions to decide the optimal trading price and trading duration of carbon contract with endogenous and exogenous carbon prices.

description: 309. Medorilla Rondani, 1856: 74.
 ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Medorilla subfasciata Rondani, 1856.
 TYPE SPECIES: Medorilla subfasciata Rondani, 1856, by original designation.
 CURRENT STATUS: Junior synonym of Labigastera Macquart, 1834 [teste Herting & Dely-Draskovits (1993: 423)].
FAMILY: TACHINIDAE.
 REMARKS: Although Herting & Dely-Draskovits (1993: 423) gave the method of type fixation for Medorilla in Rondani (1856: 74) as by original designation, they listed the type species as dating from Rondani (1861e: 78) and cited it as a synonym of Labidigaster pauciseta Rondani, 1861. This is incorrect. The characters in Rondani (1856: 74) that make the genus-group name available serve to also make available Medorilla subfasciata as the singly included species.

description: We consider different settings of the task to distinguish pure orthogonal quantum states under local operations and a limited amount of classical communication. In the first setting, the spatially separated parties are allowed to perform only local projective measurements without any classical communication during the measurements. Under such a restricted class of operations, if the states are indistinguishable, then within a second group of settings, the parties are allowed to use an additional resource for the distinguishing. The additional resource is either a pure entangled state or multiple identical copies of the given states. Comparisons between these two types of resources are also done in certain cases. Both probabilistic and perfect discrimination of the states are considered for the second group of settings. Within a third setting, the parties perform local projective measurements with a restriction on the availability of classical communication during the measurements. But in this setting the parties are allowed to use a maximally entangled state as a resource.

description: The impact of the heavy metal cadmium on the lightly silicified marine diatom Cylindrotheca closterium was studied with regard to growth dynamics, organic matter production and morphological characteristics. C. closterium cultures were able to sustain positive growth in the tested range of 0–1000 μg Cd l–1 with a significant decrease in specific growth rate in the exponential growth phase at the highest tested Cd concentration. The concentrations of both dissolved (DOCcell) and particulate organic carbon per cell (POCcell) in C. closterium cultures exposed to 500 and 1000 µg l–1 Cd more than doubled compared with the control culture. Enhanced organic matter production as a feedback response to Cd exposure may thus contribute to cell detoxification, supported by the electrochemical data showing that Cd was not significantly accumulated by or associated with diatom cells except for the culture exposed to 1000 μg Cd l–1. In order to gain more insight into the effects of cadmium on diatom morphological features, the cell surface of C. closterium was characterized at the nanoscale on a single cell level using atomic force microscopy (AFM). Changes induced by Cd were observed as irregular patterns of silica spheres on more silicified parts of the cell, girdle band and around the raphe. These changes clearly show that beside the physiological response, C. closterium also showed a morphological response which is probably due to the interference of Cd with the diatom biosilification process. This study overall contributes to better understanding of the effects of cadmium on diatoms and shows that morphological characteristics assessed by AFM may be a valuable indicator for metal contamination.

description: SPIDERS is a Subaru Pathfinder Instrument for Detecting Exoplanets and Retrieving Spectra. This instrument is currently integrated and tested at NRC-HAA before being shipped to Subaru Telescope mid-2024. SPIDERS will be installed on the infrared Nasmyth platform of Subaru behind the newly upgraded AO3k system and the new Beam Switcher mechanism. The telescope beam can be either shared between SPIDERS and SCExAO for simultaneous observations during engineering runs, or sent entirely to only one instrument for doing science. SPIDERS is a pathfinder for GPI 2.0 CAL update and also for future Adaptive Optics (AO) instruments on Extremely Large Telescopes. SPIDERS is designed around the Fast Atmospheric Self-Coherent Camera (SCC) Technique (FAST) that can enhance the contrast up to 100 times. The key-components are an ALPAO DM468 used as a second-stage AO corrector, a pupil apodizer mask, a Tilt-Gaussian Focal Plane Mask (FPM), a reflective Lyot stop feeding two cameras. The transmitted light feeds a First Light Imaging C-RED2 camera imaging a 5 FoV in narrow bands and acting as a SCC focal plane wavefront sensor and as a science imager at the same time. The blocked light is reflected to a Low-Order Wavefront Sensor complementing the SCC wavefront sensing. In addition, a beam-splitter located on the SCC path feeds an imaging Fourier-Transform Spectrograph and a SAPHIRA camera for spectroscopy up to R about 20,000 over a 3.3 FoV. This paper describes the overall opto-mechanical design, along with the integration steps and preliminary lab test results.
A Study on the Forest Thinning Planning Problem Considering Carbon Sequestration and Emission

description: Appropriate forest thinning is beneficial for growing forests and protecting ecological environments. To find a beneficial way for both economic and environmental aspects, carbon sequestration and emission due to forest thinning activities can be traded. However, previous works on forest planning did not consider forest thinning, nor carbon trading. Hence, this study proposes the spatial forest thinning planning problem with carbon trading, which decides forest thinning schedules over a planning period so that the total thinned timber volume over the period and the revenue from carbon trading are maximized, under some spatial constraints. This study creates a novel mathematical programming model.
Error Decomposition for Hybrid Localization Systems

description: Future advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous vehicles rely on accurate localization, which can be divided into three classes: a) viewpoint localization about local references (e.g., via vision-based localization), b) absolute localization about a global reference system (e.g., via satellite navigation), and c) hybrid localization, which presents a combination of the former two. Hybrid localization shares characteristics and strengths of both absolute and viewpoint localization. However, new sources of error, such as inaccurate sensor-setup calibration, complement the potential errors of the respective sub-systems. Therefore, this paper introduces a general approach to analyzing error sources in hybrid localization systems. More specifically, we propose the Kappa-Phi method, which allows for the decomposition of localization errors into individual components, i.e., into a sum of parameterized functions of the measured state (e.g., agent kinematics). The error components can then be leveraged to, e.g., improve localization predictions, correct map data, or calibrate sensor setups. Theoretical derivations and evaluations show that the algorithm presents a promising approach to improve hybrid localization and counter the weaknesses of the system's individual components.

description: We derive both numerically and analytically Bell inequalities and quantum measurements that present enhanced resistance to detector inefficiency. In particular we describe several Bell inequalities which appear to be optimal with respect to inefficient detectors for small dimensionality d=2,3,4 and 2 or more measurement settings at each side. We also generalize the family of Bell inequalities described in Collins et all (Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 040404) to take into account the inefficiency of detectors. In addition we consider the possibility for pairs of entangled particles to be produced with probability less than one. We show that when the pair production probability is small, one must in general use different Bell inequalities than when the pair production probability is high.

description: The mixed spin-(1/2, 3/2) Ising model on a decorated square lattice, which takes into account lattice vibrations of the spin-3/2 decorating magnetic ions at a quantum-mechanical level under the assumption of a perfect lattice rigidity of the spin-1/2 nodal magnetic ions, is examined via an exact mapping correspondence with the effective spin-1/2 Ising model on a square lattice. Although the considered magnetic structure is in principle unfrustrated due to bipartite nature of a decorated square lattice, the model under investigation may display anomalous spin frustration driven by a magnetoelastic coupling. It turns out that the magnetoelastic coupling is a primary cause for existence of the frustrated antiferromagnetic phases, which exhibit a peculiar coexistence of antiferromagnetic long-range order of the nodal spins with a partial disorder of the decorating spins with possible reentrant critical behaviour. Under certain conditions, the anomalous spin frustration caused by the magnetoelastic coupling is responsible for unprecedented absence of spontaneous long-range order in the mixed-spin Ising model composed from half-odd-integer spins only.

description: We consider hyperfine splitting of 1s and, in part, of 2s levels in light hydrogen-like atoms: hydrogen, deuterium, tritium, helium-3 ion, muonium and positronium. We discuss present status of precision theory and experiment for the hfs intervals. We pay a special attention to a specific difference, D_{21} = 8 E_{hfs}(2s) - E_{hfs}(1s), which is known experimentally for hydrogen, deuterium and ^3He^+ ion. The difference is weakly affected by the effects of the nuclear structure and thus may be calculated with a high accuracy. We complete a calculation of the fourth order QED contributions to this difference and present here new results on corrections due to the nuclear effects. Our theoretical predictions appear to be in a fair agreement with available experimental data. Comparison of the experimental data with our examination of D_{21} allows to test the state-dependent sector of theory of the hfs separation of the 1s and 2s levels in the light hydrogen-like atoms up to 10^-8.

description: Discrete choice experiments (DCEs) addressing adaptation to climate-related risks may be subject to response biases associated with variations in risk exposure across sampled populations. Systematic adjustments for such biases are hindered by the absence of rigorous, standardized selection-correction models for multinomial DCEs, together with a lack of information on non-respondents. This paper illustrates a systematic approach to accommodate risk-related non-response bias in DCEs, where variations in risk exposure may be linked to observable landscape characteristics. The approach adapts reduced form response-propensity models to correct for survey non-response, capitalizing on the fact that indicators of risk exposure may be linked to the geocoded locations of respondents and non-respondents. An application to coastal flood adaptation in Connecticut, USA illustrates implications for welfare estimation. Results demonstrate that the proposed approach can reveal otherwise invisible, systematic effects of survey response patterns on estimated WTP.

description: We present a dynamical toy model for an expanding universe inside a black hole. The model is built by matching a spherically symmetric collapsing matter cloud to an expanding Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe through a phase transition that occurs in the quantum-gravity dominated region, here modeled with semi-classical corrections at high density. The matching is performed on a space-like hyper-surface identified by the co-moving time at which quantum-gravity induced effects halt collapse. The purpose of the model is to suggest a possible reconciliation between the observation that black holes are well described by the classical solutions and the fact that the theoretical resolution of space-time singularities leads to a bounce for the collapsing matter.

description: is a canopy-forming brown seaweed distributed along the western Mediterranean and the adjacent Atlantic coasts, which has suffered massive declines in recent decades, particularly in the Canary Islands. Here, we describe seasonal variation in the canopy structure of this alga, addressing the role of environmental drivers. Four sites around the island of Gran Canaria were investigated monthly during an entire annual cycle. Annually, the non-fertile stage made up the majority of populations, in terms of frond density, while the fertile stage was comparatively sparser. This fertile stage, however, had the largest biomass and reached the longest lengths, showing significant seasonality. Best fitted GAM models included wave action, PAR and seawater temperature, but only accounted for a moderate variation in the seasonal frond structure of this alga. Total frond biomass, mostly fertile fronds, showed a bimodal pattern, with a peak in spring and a less accentuated peak in late summer–early autumn. This pattern was particularly obvious at sites with a wide annual variation in wave action, with lower biomass at times of high wave action. The frond size-structure was dominated, at all sites and times, by small fronds. The high frond density seems to promote intraspecific facilitation throughout the year. These results provide fundamental knowledge to improve the conservation and potential restoration actions for endangered populations of this alga.

description: The first all‐metallocene rechargeable battery consisting of poly‐cobaltocenium/‐ and poly‐ferrocene/reduced graphene oxide composites as anode and cathode was prepared. The intrinsically fast ET self‐exchange rate of metallocenes was successfully combined with an efficient ion‐percolation achieved by molecular self‐assembly. The resulting battery materials show ideal Nernstian behavior, is thickness scalable up to >1.2 C cm⁻², and exhibit high coulombic efficiency at ultrafast rates (200 A g⁻¹). Using aqueous LiClO₄, the charge is carried exclusively by the anion. The ClO₄⁻ intercalation is accompanied by a reciprocal height change of the active layers. Principally, volume changes in organic battery materials during charging/discharging are not desirable and represent a major safety issue. However, here, the individual height changes — due to ion breathing — are reciprocal and thus prohibiting any internal pressure build‐up in the closed‐cell, leading to excellent cycling stability.

description: It has been shown that deploying device-to-device (D2D) networks in urban environments requires equipping a considerable proportion of crossroads with relays. This represents a necessary economic investment for an operator. In this work, we tackle the problem of the economic feasibility of such relay-assisted D2D networks. First, we propose a stochastic model taking into account a positive surface for streets and crossroads, thus allowing for a more realistic estimation of the minimal number of needed relays. Secondly, we introduce a cost model for the deployment of relays, allowing one to study operators' D2D deployment strategies. We investigate the example of an uberizing neo-operator willing to set up a network entirely relying on D2D and show that a return on the initial investment in relays is possible in a realistic period of time, even if the network is funded by a very low revenue per D2D user. Our results bring quantitative arguments to the discussion on possible uberization scenarios of telecommunications networks.

Abstract
Lotilaner ophthalmic solution 0.25% ( XDEMVY®; henceforth referred to as lotilaner 0.25%) is a novel prescription eye drop indicated for the treatment of Demodex blepharitis. It is the first and currently the only US FDA-approved treatment for this condition. One drop of lotilaner 0.25% instilled in each eye twice daily for 6 weeks was associated with significantly higher rates of collarette reduction to ≤ 2 collarettes (primary endpoint), mite eradication and erythema cure compared to the vehicle control. Lotilaner 0.25% is generally well tolerated, with the most common ocular adverse reaction being instillation site stinging and burning (incidence 10%). The 6-week treatment remained durable with no safety issues during the observational period for up to a year. The eye drop was generally neutral or very comfortable for most patients.

description: Bringing together emerging lessons from biophysical and social sciences as well as newly available data, we take stock of what can be learned about the relationship among perceived soil fertility, measured soil fertility, and farmer management practices in east Africa. We identify the correlates of Kenyan and Tanzanian maize farmers’ reported perceptions of soil fertility and assess the extent to which these subjective assessments reflect measured soil chemistry. Our results offer evidence that farmers base their perceptions of soil quality and soil type on crop yields. We also find that, in Kenya, farmers’ reported soil type is a reasonable predictor of several objective soil fertility indicators while farmer-reported soil quality is not. In addition, in exploring the extent to which publicly available soil data are adequate to capture local soil chemistry realities, we find that there is still immense value to the time-consuming collection of soil samples where highly accurate soil measures are important to research objectives. However, in the estimation of agricultural production or profit functions, where the focus is on averages and where there is low variability in the soil properties, there may be limited value to including any soil information in the analysis.
