description: The 1980s was a transitional decade for both sides of the Taiwan Strait. As China began its policy of re-opening, it found itself at a crossroads of identity and progress. Similarly, Taiwan was growing steadily out of its prolonged state of sleepy soft-Authoritarianism (軟威權主義 ruan weiquan zhuyi) that followed violent transitional tremors such as the 228 incident in 1947 and the Luku incident in 1952. The small island too began moving away from its former identity as an exiled army in conflict with the PRC and towards a new selfhood informed by democracy and independence. As both nations took their place on the global stage, it became necessary to root their national origins in something undiluted by recent trauma. Where historical and ideological narratives hinted too directly at the immediate and bloody past, a different solution–unsullied by the terrors of reality–was found. That solution was a revitalization of the Chinese folk, re-imagined and represented in museum exhibitions, folklore festivals, and multi-volume, hardcover folktale collections.

description: We discuss the analytical expression of the oscillation probabilities at low energy long baseline experiments,such as T2HK and T2HKK in the presence of nonstandard interactions (NSIs). We show that these experiments are advantageous to explore the NSI parameters($\epsilon_D$, $\epsilon_N$), which were suggested to be nonvanishing to account for the discrepancy between the solar neutrino and KamLAND data.We also show that, when the NSI parameters are small,parameter degeneracy in the CP phase $\delta$,$\epsilon_D$ and $\epsilon_N$ can be resolved by combining data ofthe T2HK and T2HKK experiments.

description: The physical nature of a frequency shift of hydrogen valence vibrations in a water molecule due to its interaction with neighbor molecules has been studied. Electrostatic forces connected with the multipole moments of molecules are supposed to give a dominating contribution to the intermolecular interaction. The frequency shift was calculated in the case where two neighbor molecules form a dimer. The obtained result is in qualitative agreement with the frequency shifts observed for water vapor, hexagonal ice, and liquid water, as well as for aqueous solutions of alcohols. This fact testifies to the electrostatic nature of H-bonds used to describe both the specific features of the intermolecular interaction in water and the macroscopic properties of the latter.

description: Feldman-Cousins method is a unified approach to create frequentist confidence intervals near physical limits or with low statistics. It has been widely used in oscillation parameter inference for neutrino experiments. However, the Feldman-Cousins method is usually computationally expensive, on the order of tens of millions of CPU hours. In this work, we propose an iterative method using Gaussian Process to efficiently estimate a frequentist confidence contour for the neutrino oscillation parameters. We show that the Gaussian Process enhanced method significantly reduces the computational cost while producing the same result as the standard Feldman-Cousins method.

description: Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) has long been invoked to explain the correlation between black hole mass and stellar velocity dispersion (M-$σ$) discovered in low redshift galaxies. We describe the time evolution of AGN in the M-$σ$ plane based on our gap model (Garofalo, Evans \& Sambruna 2010) for black hole accretion and jet formation illustrating a fundamental difference between jetted and non-jetted AGN. While the latter tend to evolve diagonally upward with black hole mass increasing along with stellar dispersion, we show that jetted AGN tend on average to move initially more upwards because their effect on velocity dispersion is weaker than for non-jetted AGN. But this initial phase is followed by a shift in the nature of the feedback, from positive to negative, a transition that is more dramatic on average in denser cluster environments. The feedback gets its kick from tilted jets which shut down star formation but increase velocity dispersion values. As this change in the nature of the feedback takes tens of millions to hundreds of millions of years, these cluster, merger-triggered jetted AGN, will evolve more upwards for up to order $10^{8}$ years, followed by an extremely long phase in which low excitation progressively slows black hole growth but dramatically affects stellar dispersion. As a result, powerful jetted AGN evolve for most of their lives almost horizontally on the M-$σ$ plane. The prediction is that strongest AGN feedback on stellar dispersion is a late universe phenomenon with M87 a good example. We show how jetted and non-jetted AGN parallel the Sersic and core-Sersic galaxy paths in the M-$σ$ plane found by Sahu et al (2019) and to a prediction that jetted quasars are not core-Sersic galaxies as found for lower redshift jetted AGN.

description: In cognitive radio (CR) networks, "TTR", a.k.a. time-to-rendezvous, is one of the most important metrics for evaluating the performance of a channel hopping (CH) rendezvous protocol, and it characterizes the rendezvous delay when two CRs perform channel hopping. There exists a trade-off of optimizing the average or maximum TTR in the CH rendezvous protocol design. On one hand, the random CH protocol leads to the best "average" TTR without ensuring a finite "maximum" TTR (two CRs may never rendezvous in the worst case), or a high rendezvous diversity (multiple rendezvous channels). On the other hand, many sequence-based CH protocols ensure a finite maximum TTR (upper bound of TTR) and a high rendezvous diversity, while they inevitably yield a larger average TTR. In this paper, we strike a balance in the average-maximum TTR trade-off for CR rendezvous by leveraging the advantages of both random and sequence-based CH protocols. Inspired by the neighbor discovery problem, we establish a design framework of creating a wake-up schedule whereby every CR follows the sequence-based (or random) CH protocol in the awake (or asleep) mode. Analytical and simulation results show that the hybrid CH protocols under this framework are able to achieve a greatly improved average TTR as well as a low upper-bound of TTR, without sacrificing the rendezvous diversity.

description: Bulk magnetization, transport and neutron scattering measurements were performed to investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of a polycrystalline sample of the newly discovered ferromagnetic superconductor, CeO$_{0.3}$F$_{0.7}$BiS$_{2}$. Ferromagnetism develops below T$_{FM}$ = 6.54(8) K and superconductivity is found to coexist with the ferromagnetic state below T$_{SC}$ ~ 4.5 K. Inelastic neutron scattering measurements reveal a very weakly dispersive magnetic excitation at 1.8 meV that can be explained by an Ising-like spin Hamiltonian. Under application of an external magnetic field, the direction of the magnetic moment changes from the c-axis to the ab-plane and the 1.8 meV excitation splits into two modes. A possible mechanism for the unusual magnetism and its relation to superconductivity is discussed.
Singular values as neutrino mixing quantifiers
Creators: name: Flieger, Wojciech

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The neutrino mixing matrix is characterized by singular values and contractions. The method of unitary dilation is introduced to extend 3-dimensional mixing matrices to a full unitary matrix. The minimal dimension of such an extension is not arbitrary but depends on singular values. It means that singular values encode information about the number of additional neutrinos. Taking this into account, scenarios with a different number of additional, non-standard neutrinos are investigated. For the 3+1 scenario (one additional neutrino) analytical formula for the light-heavy mixing between SM-active and a right-handed neutrino as a function of singular values is derived. New stringent bounds on light-heavy mixings are established. In particular, in a seesaw mass scheme with one heavy sterile neutrino, the upper bounds on active-sterile neutrino mixings are even two times stringent than so far.

An independent proof for low dimensions of the structural equations gives new insight on the intrinsic exterior differential system.

description: There is a problem with wind turbines: in order to work, they need sufficient wind velocity, which is why we cannot plan a wind turbine anywhere. That’s why we should use the concept of continuity of fluid flow to reduce the location dependency, increase the wind speed, and generate energy anywhere from wind turbines. In the same way that we use wind turbines to generate power, but in this case, we will regulate the wind velocity.

description: We seek to measure political candidates’ ideological positioning from their speeches. To accomplish this, we infer ideological cues from a corpus of political writings annotated with known ideologies. We then represent the speeches of U.S. Presidential candidates as sequences of cues and lags (filler distinguished only by its length in words). We apply a domain-informed Bayesian HMM to infer the proportions of ideologies each candidate uses in each campaign. The results are validated against a set of preregistered, domain expertauthored hypotheses.

description: The current trichomoniasis treatment is restrict to 5-nitroimidazole drugs and the emergence of resistant isolates points the need for new therapeutical alternatives. In this study the anti-Trichomonas vaginalis activity of essential oils obtained from Myrtaceae occurring in Caatinga, a plant family with potential antiparasitic activity, was showed. The essential oils varied in their capacity to kill ATCC and fresh clinical T. vaginalis isolates, which was associated with heterogeneity and different patterns of endosymbiosis. Essential oils caused moderate to strong cytotoxicity against mammalian cells, but essential oil of Eugenia pohliana (EOEp) exhibited promising selectivity index towards vaginal epithelial cells. A checkerboard assay revealed a synergistic effect when EOEp and metronidazole were associated, indicating different mechanisms of action. The GC/MS analysis demonstrated the volatile composition of EOEp, with δ-cadinene as majoritary component. This molecule seems to contribute to the trichomonacidal effect and shows potential for the prospection of new antiparasitic compounds.

description: This paper contributes to a theory-grounded methodological foundation for automatic collaborative learning process analysis. It does this by illustrating how insights from the social psychology and sociolinguistics of speech style provide a theoretical framework to inform the design of a computational model. The purpose of that model is to detect prevalence of an important group knowledge integration process in raw speech data. Specifically, this paper focuses on assessment of transactivity in dyadic discussions, where a transactive contribution is operationalized as one where reasoning is made explicit, and where that reasoning builds on a prior reasoning statement within the discussion. Transactive contributions can be either self-oriented, where the contribution builds on the speaker’s own prior contribution, or other-oriented, where the contribution builds on a prior contribution of a conversational partner. Other-oriented transacts are particularly central to group knowledge integration processes. An unsupervised Dynamic Bayesian Network model motivated by concepts from Speech Accommodation Theory is presented and then evaluated on the task of estimating prevalence of other-oriented transacts in dyadic discussions. The evaluation demonstrates a significant positive correlation between an automatic measure of speech style accommodation and prevalence of other-oriented transacts (R = .36, p

description: The article points to the increasing uncertainty under which wheat farmers in Italy and in Europe as a whole are working as price guarantees are gradually removed under the Common Agricultural Policy and examines the possibility that use of futures markets might contribute towards relieving this uncertainty. It explains that under the former system of price guarantees, the conditions for the existence of a successful futures market did not exist since price variations were not such as to raise the need for operators to seek cover against risk through futures contracts. There follows a description of the basic mechanisms of futures contracts and a review of the principal literature on the subject, both theoretical and empirical, tracing the development of ideas about the contribution that futures markets can give to the reduction of uncertainty on the part of operators. The situation in the United States is compared with that in Italy: in the USA wide price fluctuations have not been accompanied by reductions in area under wheat or in production as happened in Italy. It is suggested that the mechanism of the futures market has played an informative role for American farmers which has helped them in their cropping choices. This has been lacking in Europe. It is suggested that futures might play a similar role for large farmers in Italy remaining in the cereals sector. Different options for participating in futures markets are examined. It is emphasised, however, that satisfactory use of futures markets by Italian farmers would depend on the availability of appropriate support services in the form particularly of appropriate financial advice and institutions.

description: Using the United Nations COMTRADE database \cite{comtrade} we construct the Google matrix $G$ of multiproduct world trade between the UN countries and analyze the properties of trade flows on this network for years 1962 - 2010. This construction, based on Markov chains, treats all countries on equal democratic grounds independently of their richness and at the same time it considers the contributions of trade products proportionally to their trade volume. We consider the trade with 61 products for up to 227 countries. The obtained results show that the trade contribution of products is asymmetric: some of them are export oriented while others are import oriented even if the ranking by their trade volume is symmetric in respect to export and import after averaging over all world countries. The construction of the Google matrix allows to investigate the sensitivity of trade balance in respect to price variations of products, e.g. petroleum and gas, taking into account the world connectivity of trade links. The trade balance based on PageRank and CheiRank probabilities highlights the leading role of China and other BRICS countries in the world trade in recent years. We also show that the eigenstates of $G$ with large eigenvalues select specific trade communities.

Previous work on this problem has used metadata about a movie—e.g., its genre, MPAA rating, and cast—with very limited work making use of text about the movie. In this paper, we use the text of film critics’ reviews from several sources to predict opening weekend revenue. We describe a new dataset pairing movie reviews with metadata and revenue data, and show that review text can substitute for metadata, and even improve over it, for prediction

description: This deliverable both analyses the output for each migration scenario projected in Task 4.3 separately and compares different scenarios over time. At the total EU level FUME scenarios projected similar total population counts with small differences. The highest EU population in 2050 is projected by Scenario B - Recovery in Europe, stagnation in developing countries at around 518.8 million, and the lowest population is projected by No migration scenario at 387.2 million inhabitants. At national level, population sizes and compositions of the member states and the UK show more variability. Some countries are expected to experience sharp population decline at all FUME scenarios while others experience population growth. In the case of zero migration, all member states are expected to experience population decline, albeit at different paces. Migration flow composition in FUME scenarios is driven by the economical migration model presented in Deliverable 4.2 (D 4.2) and takes into account the size of diaspora and economic factors. Therefore, no surprising new origin-destination country pairs are emerging. However, when future migration flows are broken down by educational attainment the ranking of sending countries change in some cases, such as in France and Spain.

description: This paper investigates active learning to improve statistical machine translation (SMT) for low-resource language pairs, i.e., when there is very little pre-existing parallel text. Since generating additional parallel text to train SMT may be costly, active sampling selects the sentences from a monolingual corpus which if translated would have maximal positive impact in training SMT models. We investigate different strategies such as density and diversity preferences as well as multistrategy methods such as modified version of DUAL and our new ensemble approach GraDUAL. These result in significant BLEU-score improvements over strong baselines when parallel training data is scarce.

description: For resource rich languages, recent works have shown Neural Network based Language Models (NNLMs) to be an effective modeling technique for Automatic Speech Recognition, out performing standard n-gram language models (LMs). For low resource languages, however, the performance of NNLMs has not been well explored. In this paper, we evaluate the effectiveness of NNLMs for low resource languages and show that NNLMs learn better word probabilities than state-of-theart n-gram models even when the amount of training data is severely limited. We show that interpolated NNLMs obtain a lower WER than standard n-gram models, no mater the amount of training data. Additionally, we observe that with small amounts of data (approx. 100k training tokens), feed-forward NNLMs obtain lower perplexity than recurrent NNLMs, while for the larger data condition (500k-1M training tokens), recurrent NNLMs can obtain lower perplexity than feed-forward models.

description: MatrixDB (http://matrixdb.univ-lyon1.fr/) is an interaction database focused on biomolecular interactions established by extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). It is an active member of the International Molecular Exchange (IMEx) consortium (https://www.imexconsortium.org/). It has adopted the HUPO Proteomics Standards Initiative standards for annotating and exchanging interaction data, either at the MIMIx (The Minimum Information about a Molecular Interaction eXperiment) or IMEx level. The following items related to GAGs have been added in the updated version of MatrixDB: (i) cross-references of GAG sequences to the GlyTouCan database, (ii) representation of GAG sequences in different formats (IUPAC and GlycoCT) and as SNFG (Symbol Nomenclature For Glycans) images and (iii) the GAG Builder online tool to build 3D models of GAG sequences from GlycoCT codes. The database schema has been improved to represent n-ary experiments. Gene expression data, imported from Expression Atlas (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/gxa/home), quantitative ECM proteomic datasets (http://matrisomeproject.mit.edu/ecm-atlas), and a new visualization tool of the 3D structures of biomolecules, based on the PDB Component Library and LiteMol, have also been added. A new advanced query interface now allows users to mine MatrixDB data using combinations of criteria, in order to build specific interaction networks related to diseases, biological processes, molecular functions or publications.

description: The neutrino detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is designed to use 20 kilotons of liquid scintillator and approximately 16,000 20-inch photomultipliers (PMTs).One of the options is to use the 20-inch R12860 PMT with high quantum efficiency which has recently been developed by Hamamatsu Photonics. The performance of the newly developed PMT preproduction samples is evaluated. The results show that its quantum efficiency is $30\%$ at $400 nm$. Its Peak/Valley (P/V) ratio for the single photoelectron is 4.75 and the dark count rate is $27 kHz$ at the threshold of 3 mV while the gain is at $1 \times 10^7$. The transit time spread of a single photoelectron is $2.86 ns$. Generally the performances of this new 20-inch PMT are improved over the old one of R3600.

description: As a baryon number violating process with $\Delta B=\Delta (B-L)=2$, neutron-antineutron oscillation ($n\to\bar n$) provides an important candidate and a unique probe to the baryon asymmetry. We performed a search for $n\to\bar n$ oscillation with the Super-Kamiokande (SK) experiment. Full exposure data set of SK was analyzed using a multi-variate analysis based on kinematic variables and basic distributions from simulated $n\to\bar n$ signal events and atmospheric neutrino backgrounds. The expected number of background events is 9.3, based on which the sensitivity of nuclear lifetime is calculated as $4.3\times{10}^{32}$ years, significantly improved from the present best-limit $1.9\times{10}^{32}$ years from SK-I.

description: We review some constructions and properties of complex manifolds admitting pluriclosed and balanced metrics. We prove that for a 6-dimensional solvmanifold endowed with an invariant complex structure J having holomorphically trivial canonical bundle the pluriclosed flow has a long time solution for every invariant initial datum. Moreover, we state a new conjecture about the existence of balanced and SKT metrics on compact complex manifolds. We show that the conjecture is true for nilmanifolds of dimension 6 and 8 and for 6-dimensional solvmanifolds with holomorphically trivial canonical bundle.

description: The time-resolved photoconductance of amorphous and crystalline LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfaces, both hosting an interfacial 2-dimensional electron gas, is investigated under irradiation by variable-wavelengths, visible or ultraviolet photons. Unlike bare SrTiO$_3$ single crystals, showing relatively small photoconductance effects, both kinds of interfaces exhibit an intense and highly persistent photoconductance with extraordinarily long characteristic times. The temporal behaviour of the extra photoinduced conductance persisting after light irradiation shows a complex dependence on interface type (whether amorphous or crystalline), sample history and irradiation wavelength. \textcolor{black}{The experimental results indicate that different mechanisms of photoexcitation are responsible for the photoconductance of crystalline and amorphous LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfaces under visible light. We propose that the response of crystalline samples is mainly due to the promotion of electrons from the valence bands of both SrTiO$_3$ and LaAlO$_3$. This second channel is less relevant in amorphous LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$, where the higher density of point defects plays instead a major role.

description: Plants of Hyptidinae subtribe (Lamiaceae – family), as Mesosphaerum sidifolium, are a source of bioactive molecules. In the search for new drug candidates, we perform chemical characterization of diterpenes isolated from the aerial parts of M. sidifolium was carried out with uni- and bidimensional NMR spectral data, and evaluate in silico through the construction of a predictive model followed by in vitro testing Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium smegmatis. Resulted in the isolation of four components: Pomiferin D (1), Salviol (2), Pomiferin E (3) and 2α-hydroxysugiol (4), as well as two phenolic compounds, rosmarinic and caffeic acids. In silico model identified 48 diterpenes likely to have biological activity against M. tuberculosis. The diterpenes isolated were tested in vitro against M. tuberculosis demonstrating MIC = 125 µM for 4 and 1, while 2 and 3 -MIC = 250 µM. These compounds did not show biological activity at these concentrations for M. smegmatis.

description: We report results of an observing campaign to study the dwarf M flare star EV Lacertae. Between October 2021 and January 2022 we obtained concurrent B band photometry and low resolution spectroscopy of EV Lac on 39 occasions during 10 of which we observed flares with amplitude greater than 0.1 magnitude. Spectra were calibrated in absolute flux using concurrent photometry and flare-only spectra obtained by subtracting mean quiescent spectra. We measured B band flare energies between Log E = 30.8 and 32.6 erg. In the brightest flares we measured temporal development of flare flux in H I and He I emission lines and in the adjacent continuum and found that flux in the continuum subsided more rapidly than in the emission lines. Although our time resolution was limited, in our brightest flare we saw flux in the continuum clearly peaking before flux in the emission lines. We observed a progressive decrease in flare energy from H\b{eta} to Hδ. On average we found 37% of B band flare energy appeared in the H\b{eta} to Hε emission lines with the remainder contributing to a rise in continuum flux. We measured black-body temperatures for the brightest flares between 10,500 +- 700 K and 19,500 +- 500 K and found a linear relationship between flare temperature and continuum flux at 4170 Å. Balmer lines in flare-only spectra were well fitted by Gaussian profiles with some evidence of additional short-lived blue-shifted emission at the flare peak.

description: We present an unsupervised word segmentation model for machine translation. The model uses existing monolingual segmentation techniques and models the joint distribution over source sentence segmentations and alignments to the target sentence. During inference, the monolingual segmentation model and the bilingual word alignment model are coupled so that the alignments to the target sentence guide the segmentation of the source sentence. The experiments show improvements on Arabic-English and ChineseEnglish translation tasks.

description: This paper studies existing direct transcription methods for trajectory optimization applied to robot motion planning. There are diverse alternatives for the implementation of direct transcription. In this study we analyze the effects of such alternatives when solving a robotics problem. Different parameters such as integration scheme, number of discretization nodes, initialization strategies and complexity of the problem are evaluated. We measure the performance of the methods in terms of computational time, accuracy and quality of the solution. Additionally, we compare two optimization methodologies frequently used to solve the transcribed problem, namely Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) and Interior Point Method (IPM). As a benchmark, we solve different motion tasks on an underactuated and non-minimal-phase ball-balancing robot with a 10 dimensional state space and 3 dimensional input space. Additionally, we validate the results on a simulated 3D quadrotor. Finally, as a verification of using direct transcription methods for trajectory optimization on real robots, we present hardware experiments on a motion task including path constraints and actuation limits.

description: A basic ambiguity characterizes the Italian agriculture of the new millennium: the ambiguity between “agricultural holding” and “agricultural enterprise”. The agricultural Census in the year 2000 has counted more than 2.5 million exploitations in the country. But only a minor part of them have a minimum economic dimension to be considered as an agricultural enterprise properly. More than 80% of the holdings in fact have less than 8 ESU and only less than 10% more than 16 ESU, which can be considered a comparable income in alternative activities for the farmer. The former have a marginal economic role for its owner and, frequently, is farmed for self consumption and leisure. The latter are market-oriented and managed in a professional way. Moreover, despite their relatively small number, they produce a large part of the Italian agricultural GDP. Based on the importance of this dualism in the Italian agriculture between “non-enterprise holdings” and “enterprise holdings”, the paper argues that an agricultural policy oriented to improve the competitivity of the Italian agriculture should be more selective and targeted to the “enterprise-holding”, being other policies suitable for the large number of “non-enterprise holdings”, such as the environmental policy, the social policy, etc.

description: We construct a variant $\mathcal{K}_n$ of the Hopf algebra $\mathcal{H}_n$, which acts directly on the noncommutative model for the generic space of leaves rather than on its frame bundle. We prove that the Hopf cyclic cohomology of $\mathcal{K}_n$ is isomorphic to that of the pair $(\mathcal{H}_n, {\mathop{\rm GL}_n})$ and thus consists of the universal Hopf cyclic classes. We then realize these classes in terms of geometric cocycles.

description: Finding new superconductors with a high critical temperature ($T_c$) has been a challenging task due to computational and experimental costs. We present a diffusion model inspired by the computer vision community to generate new superconductors with unique structures and chemical compositions. Specifically, we used a crystal diffusion variational autoencoder (CDVAE) along with atomistic line graph neural network (ALIGNN) pretrained models and the Joint Automated Repository for Various Integrated Simulations (JARVIS) superconducting database of density functional theory (DFT) calculations to generate new superconductors with a high success rate. We started with a DFT dataset of $\approx$1000 superconducting materials to train the diffusion model. We used the model to generate 3000 new structures, which along with pre-trained ALIGNN screening results in 61 candidates. For the top candidates, we performed DFT calculations for validation. Such approaches go beyond the funnel-like materials design approaches and allow for the inverse design of next-generation materials.
