description: Acoustic holographic lenses, also known as acoustic holograms, can change the phase of a transmitted wavefront in order to shape and construct complex ultrasound pressure fields, often for focusing the acoustic energy on a target region. These lenses have been proposed for transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) to create diffraction-limited focal zones that target specific brain regions while compensating for skull aberration. Holograms for tFUS are currently designed using time-reversal approaches in full-wave time-domain numerical simulations. However, such simulations need time-consuming computations, which severely limits the adoption of iterative optimization strategies. Furthermore, in the time-reversal method, the number and distribution of virtual sources can significantly influence the final sound field. Because of the computational constraints, predicting these effects and determining the optimal arrangement is challenging. This study introduces an efficient method for designing acoustic holograms using a volumetric holographic technique to generate focused fields inside the skull. The proposed method combines a modified mixed-domain method for ultrasonic propagation with a gradient descent iterative optimization algorithm. This approach enables substantially faster holographic computation than previously reported techniques. The iterative process uses explicitly defined loss functions to bias the ultrasound field's optimization parameters to specific desired characteristics, such as axial resolution, transversal resolution, coverage, and focal region uniformity, while eliminating the uncertainty associated with virtual sources in time-reversal techniques. Numerical studies are conducted on four brain structures: the anterior insula, hippocampus, caudate nucleus, and amygdala. The findings are further validated in underwater experiments with a 3D-printed skull phantom.

description: Понятие столицы не обязательно связано с политикой. Порой нестоличный город, тем не менее, приобретает настолько важное значение в своей частичной смысловой области, что становится этакой «парциальной столицей».
Румынская Тимишоара выбрана культурной столицей Европы 2021 года (наряду с греческим Элефсисом и сербским Нови Садом). За тридцать два года, которые существует традиция ежегодных выборов культурной столицы Европы, в этой роли перебывали многие города - и официальные столицы европейских государств, и провинциальные центры. О том, как нестоличный город готовится к роли парциальной столицы, рассказано в материале румынских градостроителей.
На другом конце Земли, в Капских винных землях, архитекторы города Стелленбос борются за свою неповторимую индивидуальность в качестве столицы уникального культурного ландшафта. Традиционная африканская культура перемешана здесь с трехвековой традицией виноградарства и виноделия, и эта удивительная смесь внесена в предварительный список памятников культуры ЮНЕСКО. Авторы проекта используют законы об охране культурного наследия, чтобы защитить свой город от хаотической застройки.

This implies a v-topological version of the Primitive Comparison Theorem for proper finite type morphisms $f:X\to Y$ of analytic adic spaces over $\mathbb Z_p$. We deduce new cases of the Proper Base Change Theorem for $p$-torsion coefficients and the Künneth formula in this setting.

description: In coupled space-division multiplexing (SDM) transmission systems, imperfections in optical amplifiers and passive devices introduce mode-dependent loss (MDL) and gain (MDG). These effects render the channel capacity stochastic and result in a decrease in average capacity. Several previous studies employ multi-section simulations to model the capacity of these systems. Additionally, relevant works derive analytically the capacity distribution for a single-mode system with polarization-dependent gain and loss (mode count D = 2). However, to the best of our knowledge, analytic expressions of the capacity distribution for systems with D > 2 have not been presented. In this paper, we provide analytic expressions for the capacity of optical systems with arbitrary mode counts. The expressions rely on Gaussian approximations for the per-mode capacity distributions and for the overall capacity distribution, as well as on fitting parameters for the capacity cross-correlation among different modes. Compared to simulations, the derived analytical expressions exhibit a suitable level of accuracy across a wide range of practical scenarios.

description: Abstract

This study explores the relationship between demographic trends and economic performance in Malaysia, a Southeast Asian country with a population of over 34 million as of 2023. Despite significant economic growth and high GDP per capita, the nation faces challenges due to an ageing population and declining fertility rate (2.2 children per woman in 2022). These trends could lead to series of issues like smaller working-age population, reduced savings, and consumption, lower productivity, and higher social security costs, possibly harming future economic growth without early policy interventions. Covering 1970 – 2022, the study used data from World Bank, Malaysia’s Department of statistics, United Nations, and Macrotrends. Descriptive statistics, boxplots, cointegration tests, and ARDL/ECM techniques were employed to explore the interplay between the variables of the study with the aid of EViews software. Analysis findings indicates that population growth rate, past GDP values, inflation, foreign direct investment, unemployment, and labour force participation significantly impact GDP value at different times. This study concludes by recommending that policymakers in Malaysia, incorporate changes in demographic trends/population dynamics impacts into economic strategies, promote long-run equilibrium to ensure that economy is self-correcting and can withstand shocks in the short-run, control inflation in a balanced and prudent manner, attract stable domestic and foreign direct investments, and enact job creation and training policies to ensure inclusive and sustainable economic growth and resilient to short-term shocks.

We examined classifier performance when varying corpus (abstract-only vs full-text), feature space (bag-of-words vs Cognitive Atlas), classifiers (BnB, knn, lr, svm). The most optimal classification performance across labels utilized full-text with bag-of-words and the logistic regression algorithm. When only considering abstract-text, the Cognitive Atlas features outperformed the bag-of-words features. We also found that anatomical terms dominated the features used for classification/

description: Recent work on implicit neural representations (INRs) has evidenced their potential for efficiently representing and encoding conventional video content. In this paper we, for the first time, extend their application to immersive (multi-view) videos, by proposing MV-HiNeRV, a new INR-based immersive video codec. MV-HiNeRV is an enhanced version of a state-of-the-art INR-based video codec, HiNeRV, which was developed for single-view video compression. We have modified the model to learn a different group of feature grids for each view, and share the learnt network parameters among all views. This enables the model to effectively exploit the spatio-temporal and the inter-view redundancy that exists within multi-view videos. The proposed codec was used to compress multi-view texture and depth video sequences in the MPEG Immersive Video (MIV) Common Test Conditions, and tested against the MIV Test model (TMIV) that uses the VVenC video codec. The results demonstrate the superior performance of MV-HiNeRV, with significant coding gains (up to 72.33\%) over TMIV. The implementation of MV-HiNeRV is published for further development and evaluation.

description: Distributed quantum computing leverages the collective power of multiple quantum devices to perform computations exceeding the capabilities of individual quantum devices. A currently studied technique to enable this distributed approach is wire cutting, which decomposes a quantum circuit into smaller subcircuits by cutting their connecting wires. These subcircuits can then be executed on distributed devices, and their results are classically combined to reconstruct the original computation's result. However, wire cutting requires additional circuit executions to preserve result accuracy, with their number growing exponentially with each cut. Thus, minimizing this sampling overhead is crucial for reducing the total execution time. Employing shared non-maximally entangled (NME) states between distributed devices reduces this overhead for single wire cuts, moving closer to ideal teleportation with maximally entangled states. Extending this approach to jointly cutting multiple wires using NME states remained unexplored. Our paper addresses this gap by investigating the use of NME states for joint wire cuts, aiming to reduce the sampling overhead further. Our three main contributions include (i) determining the minimal sampling overhead for this scenario, (ii) analyzing the overhead when using composite NME states constructed from smaller NME states, and (iii) introducing a wire cutting technique that achieves the optimal sampling overhead with pure NME states, paving the way towards wire cutting with arbitrary NME states.

description: We investigate helical edge states (HES) emerging at the composite domain wall of spin and pseudo-spin degrees of freedom in a 2-D bulk governed by the Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang Hamiltonian which underwent quantum spin Hall to anomalous Hall transition. We numerically study the stability of Majorana bound state (MBS) formed due to proximity induced superconductivity in these helical edge states. We establish exceptional robustness of MBS against moderate chemical potential or magnetic disorder owing to the existence of the simultaneous orthogonality between the right and the left moving modes both in spin and pseudo-spin space. Hence our proposal could pave the way to realizing robust Majorana bound state on 2D platforms.

Making Sure Orphan Drugs Don’t Get Left Behind

description: Orphan drugs developed to treat rare diseases are expensive, thus making it difficult for provincial governments to cover their costs and for patients to acquire them. However, a streamlined method of setting guidelines for coverage using a cost-based regulatory model could help patients get access to the drugs while ensuring manufacturers are fairly compensated.

Currently, governments can justify covering cost-effective drugs. Manufacturing costs, including research and development, typically put orphan drugs over any threshold of cost-effectiveness because so few patients use them. Thus, governments either decline coverage or end up funding the drugs under pressure from patient advocacy groups.

Without adequate compensation for their efforts, manufacturers will have no incentive to develop orphan drugs. A cost-based regulatory model, including yardstick pricing, would improve access to orphan drugs because it creates incentives for companies to lower their costs. Yardsticking means that prices are set using industry benchmarks and firms that successfully lower their costs below those of competitors can profit by it.

Under this system, the government could still apply an initial cost-effectiveness test. In cases where that threshold is not met, the cost-based regulatory model would be used to decide upon the maximum price at which the drug would be covered. This would be done through an estimated, benchmarked, capital cost based on the average cost of drug development across the pharmaceutical industry, and take into consideration the probability of success.

Such an approach would allow governments to bargain over a drug’s price, yet still create incentives for companies to develop orphan drugs at the lowest possible costs.

description: While graph convolutional networks show great practical promises, the theoretical understanding of their generalization properties as a function of the number of samples is still in its infancy compared to the more broadly studied case of supervised fully connected neural networks. In this article, we predict the performances of a single-layer graph convolutional network (GCN) trained on data produced by attributed stochastic block models (SBMs) in the high-dimensional limit. Previously, only ridge regression on contextual-SBM (CSBM) has been considered in Shi et al. 2022; we generalize the analysis to arbitrary convex loss and regularization for the CSBM and add the analysis for another data model, the neural-prior SBM. We also study the high signal-to-noise ratio limit, detail the convergence rates of the GCN and show that, while consistent, it does not reach the Bayes-optimal rate for any of the considered cases.

description: The Simplified General Perturbations 4 (SGP4) orbital propagation method is widely used for predicting the positions and velocities of Earth-orbiting objects rapidly and reliably. Despite continuous refinement, SGP models still lack the precision of numerical propagators, which offer significantly smaller errors. This study presents dSGP4, a novel differentiable version of SGP4 implemented using PyTorch. By making SGP4 differentiable, dSGP4 facilitates various space-related applications, including spacecraft orbit determination, state conversion, covariance transformation, state transition matrix computation, and covariance propagation. Additionally, dSGP4's PyTorch implementation allows for embarrassingly parallel orbital propagation across batches of Two-Line Element Sets (TLEs), leveraging the computational power of CPUs, GPUs, and advanced hardware for distributed prediction of satellite positions at future times. Furthermore, dSGP4's differentiability enables integration with modern machine learning techniques. Thus, we propose a novel orbital propagation paradigm, ML-dSGP4, where neural networks are integrated into the orbital propagator. Through stochastic gradient descent, this combined model's inputs, outputs, and parameters can be iteratively refined, surpassing SGP4's precision. Neural networks act as identity operators by default, adhering to SGP4's behavior. However, dSGP4's differentiability allows fine-tuning with ephemeris data, enhancing precision while maintaining computational speed. This empowers satellite operators and researchers to train the model using specific ephemeris or high-precision numerical propagation data, significantly advancing orbital prediction capabilities.

A panorama of self-deposit practices in European and North American archives

Year: 2024

description: This paper analyses self-deposit operations in European and North American archives. By examining the obstacles to the introduction of self-deposit services stricto sensu (with minimum involvement of the data stewards), which are still rare, this research looks closely at how data stewards support the curation and documentation effort that must be handled, at least partially, by the depositors themselves. Our analysis shows that self-deposit practices are a trend that is particularly marked in emerging archives.

Very few studies tackled this subject head-on: how are curation practices actually carried out? What are the various costs involved? What types of guidelines are provided to depositors? How are the archive's recommendations and instructions accepted and followed by depositors? To what extent is the data re-use potential taken into account when it comes to self-deposit?  While some of these questions have been addressed in the literature, albeit in very general terms, there is very little concrete feedback out there. This is the subject our paper tackles.

Empirically, our research is based on 20  interviews (an in-depth questionnaire and/or guided interviews conducted remotely) conducted, between 2021 and 2022, with CESSDA archives or repositories referenced by the Dataverse network.

In this paper, we will analyse several pitfalls in the implementation of open science policies: the difficulties in finding the right balance between the archive's workflows and the flexibility granted to depositors; the gap between the limited resources that data curation teams have and the extent of the tasks that ultimately fall on them to make data FAIR; the uncertainties over the modes of reasoned division of labour that can be put in place between depositors, data stewards and other data professionals, to optimise the self deposit workflow and the articulation deficit between self-deposit practices and the data re-use potential.

description: Driver intention recognition studies increasingly rely on deep neural networks. Deep neural networks have achieved top performance for many different tasks, but it is not a common practice to explicitly analyse the complexity and performance of the network's architecture. Therefore, this paper applies neural architecture search to investigate the effects of the deep neural network architecture on a real-world safety critical application with limited computational capabilities. We explore a pre-defined search space for three deep neural network layer types that are capable to handle sequential data (a long-short term memory, temporal convolution, and a time-series transformer layer), and the influence of different data fusion strategies on the driver intention recognition performance. A set of eight search strategies are evaluated for two driver intention recognition datasets. For the two datasets, we observed that there is no search strategy clearly sampling better deep neural network architectures. However, performing an architecture search does improve the model performance compared to the original manually designed networks. Furthermore, we observe no relation between increased model complexity and higher driver intention recognition performance. The result indicate that multiple architectures yield similar performance, regardless of the deep neural network layer type or fusion strategy.

description: A Li-Al-O thin film materials library, deposited by inert magnetron sputtering and post-deposition annealing in O2 atmosphere, was used to study the effects of different annealing temperatures (300 to 850°C) and durations (1 min to 7 h) on crystallinity and composition of the films. XPS depth profiling revealed inhomogeneous compositional depth profiles with Li contents increased toward the film surface and Al contents toward the film-substrate interface. These depth profiles were confirmed by a combination of RBS and D-NRA. At annealing temperatures of 550°C and higher, Li reacted with the Si substrate. At the same time, temperatures of 550°C and higher enabled the formation of crystalline LiAlO2, whereas at lower temperatures, no crystalline Li-Al-O phases were detected with XRD. In contrast to conventional annealing in a tube furnace (3 to 7 h durations), rapid thermal annealing with fast heating/cooling rates of 10°C/min and durations of 1 to 10 min resulted in homogeneous depth profiles, while also leading to crystalline LiAlO2.

description: Optical tweezers revolutionized the manipulation of nanoscale objects. Typically, tunable manipulations of optical tweezers rely on adjusting either the trapping laser beams or the optical environment surrounding the nanoparticles. We present a novel approach to achieve tunable and switchable trapping using nanoparticles made of a phase-change material (vanadium dioxide or VO$_2$). By varying the intensity of the trapping beam, we induce transitions of the VO$_2$ between monoclinic and rutile phases. Depending on the nanoparticles' sizes, they exhibit one of three behaviours: small nanoparticles (in our settings, radius $<0.12$ wavelength $λ$) remain always attracted by the laser beam in both material phases, large nanoparticles ($>0.22 λ$) remain always repelled. However, within the size range of $0.12$-$0.22 λ$, the phase transition of the VO$_2$ switches optical forces between attractive and repulsive, thereby pulling/pushing them towards/away from the beam centre. The effect is reversible, allowing the same particle to be attracted and repelled repeatedly. The phenomenon is governed by Mie resonances supported by the nanoparticle and their alterations during the phase transition of the VO$_2$.

description: In Verteilungssituationen können
Gefühle der Ungerechtigkeit entstehen. Schmitt et al. (1995,1997) schlugen
einen Fragebogen zur Erfassung von Einstellungen zu Verteilungsprinzipien vor.
Eine überarbeitete Version unterscheidet das Leistungs-, Bedürftigkeits- und
Gleichheitsprinzip und erfasst Einstellungen zu diesen Prinzipien in den sozialen
Kontexten Arbeit, Wohlfahrt und Freundschaft. Es werden zeitlich stabile und
transsituativ konsistente Persönlichkeitsunterschiede angenommen. Dargestellt
werden Ergebnisse einer Studie mit N = 355. Exploratorische
Faktorenanalysen weisen auf eine klare dreifaktorielle Faktorstruktur hin.
Korrelationen mit Empathie, Glaube an eine gerechte Welt und Verträglichkeit sowie
erwartete Gruppenunterschiede liefern Evidenz für eine gute Konstruktvalidität
der Skalen. Die Befunde legen nahe, die revidierte Fassung der Skala als
ökonomisch, reliabel und valide anzunehmen.

description: Without specifying a matter field nor imposing energy conditions, we study Killing horizons in $n(\ge 3)$-dimensional static solutions in general relativity with an $(n-2)$-dimensional Einstein base manifold. Assuming linear relations $p_{\rm r}\simeqχ_{\rm r} ρ$ and $p_2\simeqχ_{\rm t} ρ$ near a Killing horizon between the energy density $ρ$, radial pressure $p_{\rm r}$, and tangential pressure $p_2$ of the matter field, we prove that any non-vacuum solution satisfying $χ_{\rm r}<-1/3$ ($χ_{\rm r}\ne -1$) or $χ_{\rm r}>0$ does not admit a horizon as it becomes a curvature singularity. For $χ_{\rm r}=-1$ and $χ_{\rm r}\in[-1/3,0)$, non-vacuum solutions admit Killing horizons, on which there exists a matter field only for $χ_{\rm r}=-1$ and $-1/3$, which are of the Hawking-Ellis type~I and type~II, respectively. Differentiability of the metric on the horizon depends on the value of $χ_{\rm r}$, and non-analytic extensions beyond the horizon are allowed for $χ_{\rm r}\in[-1/3,0)$. In particular, solutions can be attached to the Schwarzschild-Tangherlini-type vacuum solution at the Killing horizon in at least a $C^{1,1}$ regular manner without a lightlike thin shell. We generalize some of those results in Lovelock gravity with a maximally symmetric base manifold.

description: We have analyzed phenology data and protein configurations from molecular dynamics simulations with the nonlinear forecasting method proposed by May and Sugihara. Our primary focus in this work is to characterize the dynamic state of a system by quantifying prediction quality from data. Full plots of prediction quality as a function of dimensionality $E$ and forecasting time $T_p$, the two basic parameters of the method, give fast and valuable information about Complex Systems dynamics. We detect changes in protein dynamics due to mutations and, regarding ecology data, we show how cycles and {\it rhythms} of the environment manifests in parameter space $(E,T_p)$ for some species.

description: In high-energy physics, particles produced in collision events decay in a format of a hierarchical tree structure, where only the final decay products can be observed using detectors. However, the large combinatorial space of possible tree structures makes it challenging to recover the actual decay process given a set of final particles. To better analyse the hierarchical tree structure, we propose a graph-based deep learning model to infer the tree structure to reconstruct collision events. In particular, we use a compact matrix representation termed as lowest common ancestor generations (LCAG) matrix, to encode the particle decay tree structure. Then, we introduce a perturbative augmentation technique applied to node features, aiming to mimic experimental uncertainties and increase data diversity. We further propose a supervised graph contrastive learning algorithm to utilize the information of inter-particle relations from multiple decay processes. Extensive experiments show that our proposed supervised graph contrastive learning with perturbative augmentation (PASCL) method outperforms state-of-the-art baseline models on an existing physics-based dataset, significantly improving the reconstruction accuracy. This method provides a more effective training strategy for models with the same parameters and makes way for more accurate and efficient high-energy particle physics data analysis.
Iterative Service-Learning: A Computing-Based Case-study Applied to Small Rural Organizations

description: This paper describes the iterative use of service learning to develop, review, and improve computing-based artifacts. It is well-known that computing students benefit from service-learning experiences as do the community partners. It is also well-known that computing artifacts rarely function well long-term without versioning and updates. Service-learning projects are often one-time engagements, completed by single teams of students over the course of a semester course. This limits the benefit for community partners that do not have the expertise or resources to review and update a project on their own.
 Over several years, teams of undergraduate students in a capstone course created tailored social media plans for numerous small rural organizations. The projects were required to meet client specific needs, with identified audiences, measurable goals, and strategies and tactics to reach the identified goals. This paper builds on previously results for 60 projects conducted over several years. Nine clients were selected to participate in the iterative follow-up process, where new student teams conducted client interviews, reviewed the initial plans, and analyzed metrics from the current strategies and tactics to provide updated, improved artifacts. Using ABET learning objectives as a basis, clients reviewed the student teams and artifacts. This longitudinal study discusses the impact of this intervention to increase implementation and sustained use rates of computing artifacts developed through service learning. Both students and clients reported high satisfaction levels, and clients were particularly satisfied with the iterative improvement process. This research demonstrates an innovative practice for creating and maintaining computing artifacts through iterative service learning, while addressing the resource constraints of small organizations.

title: Handlungs- und Deutungsmuster von Flüchtlingsbetreuer/Innen in Privatinitiativen und Heimen
Creators: name: Eret, Elisabeth
Year: 2008

description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden anhand von zwölf offenen Interviews mit österreichischen FlüchtlingsbetreuerInnen in Privatinitiativen und Heimen ihre Handlungsund Deutungsmuster untersucht. Diese Interviews wurden in den Jahren 1990 bis 2000 in Wien und Niederösterreich geführt. Bei den betreuten Flüchtlingen handelte es sich um Personen aus den Nachfolgestaaten Jugoslawiens sowie aus Albanien, die im Zusammenhang mit den bewaffneten Auseinandersetzungen in den Balkanländern der 1990er Jahre nach Österreich flüchteten. Die Ergebnisse weisen darauf hin, dass in Abhängigkeit von ihrer BetreuerInnentätigkeit durch wechselseitige Beeinflussung von Handlungs- und Deutungsmustern eine persönliche Entwicklung stattfand. Durch Eigenerfahrungen revidierten die InterviewpartnerInnen konkrete anfängliche Vorurteile und Klischees. Dies zog eine allgemeine Korrektur von Handlungs- und Deutungsmustern gegenüber von Flüchtlingen und anderen Fremden nach sich. Gleichzeitig wurden die eigene Motivation sowie die in der Flüchtlingsbetreuung gesetzten Schwerpunkte und Prioritäten und ihre Weiterentwicklung dargestellt.

description: We measure universal temperature-independent density shifts for the thermal conductivity $κ_T$ and shear viscosity $η$, relative to the high temperature limits, for a normal phase unitary Fermi gas confined in a box potential. We show that a time-dependent kinetic theory model enables extraction of the hydrodynamic transport times $τ_η$ and $τ_κ$ from the time-dependent free-decay of a spatially periodic density perturbation, yielding the static transport properties and density shifts, corrected for finite relaxation times.
