description: One of the main problems that local authorities of large cities have to face is the regulation of urban mobility. They need to provide the means to allow for the efficient movement of people and distribution of goods. However, the provisioning of transportation services needs to take into account general global objectives, like reducing emissions and having more healthy living environments, which may not always be aligned with individual interests. Urban mobility is usually provided through a transport infrastructure that includes all the elements that support mobility. On many occasions, the capacity of the elements of this infrastructure is lower than the actual demand and thus different transportation activities compete for their use. In this paper, we argue that scarce transport infrastructure elements should be assigned dynamically and in a prioritised manner to transport activities that have a higher utility from the point of view of society; for example, activities that produce less pollution and provide more value to society. In this paper, we define a general model for prioritizing the use of a particular type of transportation infrastructure element called time-unlimited elements, whose usage time is unknown a priori, and illustrate its dynamics through two use cases: vehicle-specific dynamic access restriction in city centres (i) based on the usage levels of available parking spaces and (ii) to assure sustained admissible air quality levels in the city centre. We carry out several experiments using the SUMO traffic simulation tool to evaluate our proposal.

description: Black holes absorb any particle impinging with an impact parameter below a critical value. We show that 2- and 3-charge fuzzball geometries exhibit a similar trapping behaviour for a selected choice of the impact parameter of incoming massless particles. This suggests that the blackness property of black holes arises as a collective effect whereby each micro-state absorbs a specific channel.

description: This paper aims to investigate the scattering of fermions by spherically symmetric MOG black holes, which are a type of black holes encountered in scalar-tensor-vector modified gravitational theories. After determining the scattering modes in this black hole geometry, we apply the partial wave method to compute analytical expressions for the phase shifts that enter into the definition of scattering amplitudes. An analysis of the influence of the MOG parameter $α$ on the differential scattering cross section and the induced polarization is conducted. Also, a comparison with Schwarzschild scattering (for which $α= 0$) is performed. Furthermore, it is also shown that glory and spiral/orbiting scattering are more significant for higher values of the free parameter $α$.

description: Diabetes is a widely existing disease in patients at risk of pancreatic cancer. It originates from pancreatic endocrine gland whereas pancreatic cancer develops from exocrine glands. Leukocyte cell surface glycans are involved in leukocyte-endothelial cell adherence and retinal endothelial cell death in diabetic retinopathy. A stimulation of hexosamine biosynthesis pathway occurs in diabetes and in pancreatic cancer controlled by oncogene KRAS variant. The present study found a significant elevation of α1-3 and α1-4fucosyltransferase activities in pancreatic cancer serum. We examined 5 pancreatic non-tumor and 14 pancreatic tumor tissue specimens for quantitative changes in glycosyltransferse (GTs) activities in pancreatic tumorigenesis by following the incorporation of 14C or 3H monosaccharide (CPM) from 14C or 3H monosaccharide donors into specific acceptor catalyzed by 1 mg protein of TritonX-100 solubilized tissue extract. As compared to pancreatic non-tumor tissue specimens with a very low level of GTs activities, pancreatic tumor specimens on average contained 26.0, 42.9, 331.7, 121.0 and 62.8-fold of α1-2, α1-3, α1-4, α1-6 FTs and FT VI activities respectively. The major sialyltransferase α2-3 (O)ST and sialomucin glycoproteins increased 95.4 and 4.0-fold; N-glycan αMan: β1-2GlcNAc-T, chain elongating βGal: β1-3 GlcNAc-T and N-glycan GalNAc capping β1-3/1-4 GalNAc-T were respectively 95.0, 2.7 and 14.8-fold and the mRNAs of FUT-4, β1-3 and β1-4 GalNAc-Ts were 8.3, 12.0 and 2.4-fold respectively. The increase in activity in neutrophils of retinopathy vs. normal was: β1-2- GlcNAc-T (9.0 fold), β1-3-GlcNAc-T (2.5), α1-3- FT (3.5), α1-6-FT (3.3), FTVII (1.9), αGalNAc: β1-3-GalT (1.4), βGlcNAc: β1-4-Gal-T (2.1), α2-3-(O)ST (2.1), α2-3-(N)ST (4.5), α2-6-(N)ST (8.1). GalNAc replacing Gal in LacNAc terminals results in changes of glycosyltransferase specificities and the modified GalNAc β1-4GlcNAc by FTs and STs bind to lectins such as WGA and SNA. In contrast to a low-level expression-difference of glycosyltransferases between tumor and non-tumor specimens from stomach, prostate and colon, a multifold increase in GTs in pancreatic tumor would indicate their significant role in invasion and intractability of pancreatic cancer. The high-level GT activities in diabetic neutrophils could contribute to the alterations in cell-cell interactions in diabetic retinopathy.

description: The lack of explainability of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the first obstacles that the industry and regulators must overcome to mitigate the risks associated with the technology. The need for eXplainable AI (XAI) is evident in fields where accountability, ethics and fairness are critical, such as healthcare, credit scoring, policing and the criminal justice system. At the EU level, the notion of explainability is one of the fundamental principles that underpin the AI Act, though the exact XAI techniques and requirements are still to be determined and tested in practice. This paper explores various approaches and techniques that promise to advance XAI, as well as the challenges of implementing the principle of explainability in AI governance and policies. Finally, the paper examines the integration of XAI into EU law, emphasising the issues of standard setting, oversight, and enforcement.

description: We present Piano Genie, an intelligent controller which allows non-musicians to improvise on the piano. With Piano Genie, a user performs on a simple interface with eight buttons, and their performance is decoded into the space of plausible piano music in real time. To learn a suitable mapping procedure for this problem, we train recurrent neural network autoencoders with discrete bottlenecks: an encoder learns an appropriate sequence of buttons corresponding to a piano piece, and a decoder learns to map this sequence back to the original piece. During performance, we substitute a user's input for the encoder output, and play the decoder's prediction each time the user presses a button. To improve the intuitiveness of Piano Genie's performance behavior, we impose musically meaningful constraints over the encoder's outputs.

description: We explore the effects of counterion condensation on fluid-fluid phase separation in charged colloidal suspensions. It is found that formation of double layers around the colloidal particles stabilizes suspensions against phase separation. Addition of salt, however, produces an instability which, in principle, can lead to a fluid-fluid separation. The instability, however, is so weak that it should be impossible to observe a fully equilibrated coexistence experimentally.

description: In this paper is studied the problem concerning the angle between two subspaces of arbitrary dimensions in Euclidean space $E_{n}$. It is proven that the angle between two subspaces is equal to the angle between their orthogonal subspaces. Using the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of corresponding matrix representations, there are introduced principal values and principal subspaces. Their geometrical interpretation is also given together with the canonical representation of the two subspaces. The canonical matrix for the two subspaces is introduced and its properties of duality are obtained. Here obtained results expand the classic results given in [1,2].

description: This paper analyzes the relation between bank profit performance and business models. Using a machine learning-based approach, we propose a methodological strategy in which balance sheet components' contributions to profitability are the identification instruments of business models. We apply this strategy to the European Union banking system from 1997 to 2021. Our main findings indicate that the standard retail-oriented business model is the profile that performs best in terms of profitability, whereas adopting a non-specialized business profile is a strategic decision that leads to poor profitability. Additionally, our findings suggest that the effect of high capital ratios on profitability depends on the business profile. The contributions of business models to profitability decreased during the Great Recession. Although the situation showed signs of improvement afterward, the European Union banking system's ability to yield returns is still problematic in the post-crisis period, even for the best-performing group.

Neutron lifetime and dark decay of the neutron and hydrogen
Creators: name: Berezhiani, Zurab
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The neutron, besides its $β$-decay $n\to p e\barν_e$, might have a new decay channel $n\to n' X$ into mirror neutron $n'$, its nearly mass degenerate twin from parallel dark sector, and a massless boson $X$ which can be ordinary and mirror photons or some more exotic particle. Such an invisible decay could alleviate the tension between the neutron lifetimes measured in the beam and trap experiments. I discuss some phenomenological and astrophysical consequences of this scenario, which depends on the mass range of mirror neutron $n'$. Namely, the case $m_{n'} < m_p + m_e$ leads to a striking possibility is that the hydrogen atom $^1$H (protium), constituting 75 per cent of the baryon mass in the Universe, could in fact be unstable: it can decay via the electron capture into $n'$ and $ν_e$, with relatively short lifetime $\sim 10^{21}$ yr or so. If instead $m_{n'} > m_p + m_e$, then the decay $n'\to pe\bar ν_e$ is allowed and $n'$ can represent an unstable dark matter component with rather large lifetime exceeding the age of the Universe. Nevertheless, this decay would produce substantial diffuse gamma background. The dark decay explanation of the lifetime puzzle, however, has a tension with the last experimental results measuring $β$-asymmetry in the neutron decay.

description: The evolution of national regulatory frameworks to facilitate the reuse of health data in compliance with GDPR principles is a critical issue in the European research landscape. This document seeks to gather insights from key stakeholders on how their respective countries have motivated and accelerated these regulatory changes. The focus includes limitations on purpose in data reuse, legal exemptions for research, and the principle of data minimisation in the context of AI and Big Data. Discussions with the European Data Protection Supervisor and the establishment of a Satellite Events on the European Health Data Space have driven these efforts. That culminates in the final approval of the European Health Data Space Regulation (EHDS) in January 2025 and is expected to be published in the European Official Journal in March 2025. The findings have contribute to shaping policy recommendations that support secure data reuse while maintaining compliance with GDPR.

description: Performance monitoring is a critical dimension of cognitive control that
comprises the monitoring of external stimuli, the evaluation of performance,
and the successful adjustment of behavior in line with task goals. However,
the relationships between different ERPs and behavioral measures of
performance monitoring are unclear due to mixed findings across studies.
Experimental paradigms are advocated as potential sources of variance
(Meyer et al., 2013; Riesel et al., 2013) and different patterns of ERP-
behavior relationships may be observed during different task. Therefore, the
first aim of the present study is to understand how task-specific effects
moderate the relationships between performance monitoring ERPs and
behavioral adjustments on the following trial.
Studies of performance monitoring often use similar stimuli from a few tasks
to study ERP-behavior relationships, but the selected stimuli and tasks
represent samples of a population of stimuli and tasks. ERP-behavior
relationships might only be observed for certain stimulus sets. Therefore, the
secondary aim of the present study is to treat stimuli and tasks as random
samples (i.e., as random effects) to identify whether a robust ERP-behavior
relationship is observed across flanker, Stroop, and Go/NoGo tasks.

description: Let the matrix operator $L = D\partial_{xx} + q(x)A_0$, with $D = diag(1, ν)$, $ν \neq 1$, $q \in L^{\infty} (0, $π$)$, and $A_0$ is a Jordan block of order 1. We analyze the boundary null controllability for system $y_t - Ly = 0$. When $ ν\notin \mathbb{Q} ^*_+ $ and $q(x) = 1$, $x $\in$ (0, $π$)$, there exists a family of root vectors of $(L * , D(L *)) $ forming a Riesz basis, moreover, F. Ammar Khodja, A.Benabdallah, M.Gonzalez-Burgos, L.Teresa, show the existence of a minimal time of control depending on condensation of eigenvalues of $(L^* , D(L^*))$. But there exists $q \in L^{\infty} (0, $π$)$ such that the family of eigenfunctions of $(L^* , D(L^*))$ is complete but it is not a Riesz basis. In this framework new phenomena arise : simultaneous condensation of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. We prove the existence of a minimal time $T_0 \in [0, +\infty]$ depending on the condensation of eigenvalues and associated eigenfunctions of $(L^* , D(L^*))$, such that the corresponding system is null controllable at any time $T > T_0$ and is not if $T < T_0$.

description: In the field of integrated circuit manufacturing, the detection and classification of nanoscale wafer defects are critical for subsequent root cause analysis and yield enhancement. The complex background patterns observed in scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and the diverse textures of the defects pose significant challenges. Traditional methods usually suffer from insufficient data, labels, and poor transferability. In this paper, we propose a novel few-shot learning approach, SEM-CLIP, for accurate defect classification and segmentation. SEM-CLIP customizes the Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) model to better focus on defect areas and minimize background distractions, thereby enhancing segmentation accuracy. We employ text prompts enriched with domain knowledge as prior information to assist in precise analysis. Additionally, our approach incorporates feature engineering with textual guidance to categorize defects more effectively. SEM-CLIP requires little annotated data, substantially reducing labor demands in the semiconductor industry. Extensive experimental validation demonstrates that our model achieves impressive classification and segmentation results under few-shot learning scenarios.

description: Starting from the coherent state representation of the evolution operator with the help of the path-integral, we derive a formula for the low-lying levels $E = ε_0 - 2\triangleεcos (s+ξ)π$ of a quantum spin system. The quenching of macroscopic quantum coherence is understood as the vanishing of $cos (s+ξ)π$ in disagreement with the suppression of tunneling (i.e. $\triangleε= 0$) as claimed in the literature. A new configuration called the macroscopic Fermi-particle is suggested by the character of its wave function. The tunneling rate ($(2\triangleε)/(π)$) does not vanish, not for integer spin s nor for a half-integer value of s, and is calculated explicitly (for the position dependent mass) up to the one-loop approximation.

description: Neural Architecture Search (NAS) has become the de-facto approach for designing accurate and efficient networks for edge devices. Since models are typically quantized for edge deployment, recent work has investigated quantization-aware NAS (QA-NAS) to search for highly accurate and efficient quantized models. However, existing QA-NAS approaches, particularly few-bit mixed-precision (FB-MP) methods, do not scale to larger tasks. Consequently, QA-NAS has mostly been limited to low-scale tasks and tiny networks. In this work, we present an approach to enable QA-NAS (INT8 and FB-MP) on large-scale tasks by leveraging the block-wise formulation introduced by block-wise NAS. We demonstrate strong results for the semantic segmentation task on the Cityscapes dataset, finding FB-MP models 33% smaller and INT8 models 17.6% faster than DeepLabV3 (INT8) without compromising task performance.

description: The wake flow field of a generic rocket launcher geometry at Mach 0.8, with a supersonic exhaust jet at stagnation conditions from 288 to 919 K was analyzed regarding its spectral content by means of highspeed Schlieren imaging and pressure measurements. The spectral analysis captured typical wake flow frequencies and their characteristic mode shape for the cross-flapping and swinging motion of the ambient shear layer at SrD = 0.19 and 0.35. At certain conditions, a strong amplification of the swinging motion was observed, which is probably governed by a coupling of the dynamic wake flow modes and the acoustic chamber properties.

description: We have investigated the vortex in chiral superconductors, especially in p-wave case. In chiral superconductors the Cooper pair has orbital angular momentum hence U(1), parity (P) and time reversal symmetry (T) are broken simultaneously. We have found that the vortex has fractional charge and fractional angular momentum which comes from P- and T-violation. The fractionalization of the angular momentum suggests that the vortex could be anyon which obeys the fractional statistics. We have also pointed out that the electric field is induced near the vortex core and non-trivial electromagnetic phenomena are expected to occur.

description: We present a foliation-focused critical review of the boundary conditions and dynamics of 4D gravitational theories. A general coordinate transformation introduces a new foliation and changes the hypersurface on which a natural boundary condition is imposed; in this sense gauge transformations must be viewed as changing the boundary conditions. The issue of a gauge invariant boundary condition is nontrivial and has been extensively studied in the literature. We turn around the difficulty in obtaining such a boundary condition (and subtleties observed in the main body) and take it as one of the indications of an enlarged Hilbert space so as to include the states satisfying different boundary conditions. Through the systematical reduction procedure we obtain, up to some peculiarities, the explicit form of the reduced Lagrangian that describes the dynamics of the physical states. We examine the new insights offered by the 3D Lagrangian on BMS-type symmetry and black hole information. In particular we confirm that the boundary dynamics is an indispensable part of the system information.

Virtual sources and receivers in the real Earth -- considerations for practical applications

description: To enhance monitoring of the subsurface, virtual sources and receivers inside the subsurface can be created from seismic reflection data at the surface of the Earth using the Marchenko method. The response between these virtual sources and receivers can be obtained through the use of homogeneous Green's function retrieval. A homogeneous Green's function is a superposition of a Green's function and its time-reversal. The main aim of this paper is to obtain accurate homogeneous Green's functions from field data. Classical homogeneous Green's function retrieval requires an unrealistic enclosing recording surface, however, by using a recently proposed single-sided retrieval scheme, this requirement can be avoided. We first demonstrate the principles of using the single-sided representation on synthetic data and show that different source signatures can be taken into account. Because the Marchenko method is sensitive to recording limitations of the reflection data, we study five cases of recording limitations with synthetic data and demonstrate their effects on the final result. Finally, the method is demonstrated on a pre-processed field dataset which fulfills the requirements for applying the single-sided Green's function retrieval scheme. The scheme has the potential to be used in future applications, such as source localization.

description: We construct an effective Lagrangian for interacting pions with non-relativistic energies. The coupling constants can be expressed in terms of the different scattering lengths and slopes. When used in the calculation of the pionium decay rate, the scattering slope contribution gives a correction of about 8% compared with the lowest order contribution coming from the scattering lengths alone.

description: In recent years, advancements in Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques have revolutionized the field of accessibility and exclusivity of testing, particularly for visually impaired students (VIS). CBT has shown in years back its relevance in terms of administering exams electronically, making the test process easier, providing quicker and more accurate results, and offering greater flexibility and accessibility for candidates. Yet, its relevance was not felt by the visually impaired students as they cannot access printed documents. Hence, in this paper, we present an NLP-driven Computer-Based Test guide for visually impaired students. It employs a speech technology pre-trained methods to provide real-time assistance and support to visually impaired students. The system utilizes NLP technologies to convert the text-based questions and the associated options in a machine-readable format. Subsequently, the speech technology pre-trained model processes the converted text enabling the VIS to comprehend and analyze the content. Furthermore, we validated that this pre-trained model is not perverse by testing for accuracy using sample audio datasets labels (A, B, C, D, E, F, G) to compare with the voice recordings obtained from 20 VIS which is been predicted by the system to attain values for precision, recall, and F1-scores. These metrics are used to assess the performance of the pre-trained model and have indicated that it is proficient enough to give its better performance to the evaluated system. The methodology adopted for this system is Object Oriented Analysis and Design Methodology (OOADM) where Objects are discussed and built by modeling real-world instances.

description: This work describes the application of 3D Background Oriented Schlieren (3DBOS) to the experimental analysis of the mean and instantaneous 3D structures of supersonic under-expanded screeching jets. These jets feature various dynamical states as the jet nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) is varied. Hence, six flow conditions were considered using acoustic measurements and 3D density reconstructions. Relying on the latter and on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) to isolate the main flow features, clear visualizations of the instantaneous 3D state and the reconstructed average dynamics of modes A1 and C, that are respectively axisymmetric and helical, were obtained.
On the Three Properties of Stationary Populations and knotting with Non-Stationary Populations

description: A population is considered stationary if the growth rate is zero and the age structure is constant. It thus follows that a population is considered non-stationary if either its growth rate is non-zero and/or its age structure is non-constant. We propose three properties that are related to the stationary population identity (SPI) of population biology by connecting it with stationary populations and non-stationary populations which are approaching stationarity. One of these important properties is that SPI can be applied to partition a population into stationary and non-stationary components. These properties provide deeper insights into cohort formation in real-world populations and the length of the duration for which stationary and non-stationary conditions hold. The new concepts are based on the time gap between the occurrence of stationary and non-stationary populations within the SPI framework that we refer to as Oscillatory SPI and the Amplitude of SPI.

description: In this paper, the impact of imperfect channel state information (CSI) on a downlink coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission system with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is investigated since perfect knowledge of a channel can not be guaranteed in practice. Furthermore, the channel estimation error is applied to estimate the channel information wherein its priori of variance is assumed to be known. The impact of the number of coordinated base stations (BSs) on downlink CoMP NOMA is investigated. Users are classified into one of two groups according to their position within the cell, namely cell-center user (CCU) and cell-edge user (CEU). In this paper, ergodic capacity and sum capacity for both CCU and CEU are derived as closed form. In addition, various experiments are conducted with different parameters such as SNR, error variance, and power allocation to show their impact on the CoMP method. The results show that CoMP NOMA outperforms the CoMP orthogonal multiple access (OMA) wherein the condition of the channel impacts the performance of CoMP NOMA less. It is worth noting that a higher number of coordinated BSs enhances the total capacity of CoMP NOMA. Finally, the performance analysis is validated due to the close accordance between the analytical and simulation results.

Cutting the cylinder into squares: The square form factor

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this article we present a method for constructing two-point functions in the spirit of the hexagon proposal, which leads us to propose a "square form factor". Since cutting the square gives us two squares, we can write a consistency condition that heavily constrains such form factors. In particular, we are able to use this constraint to reconstruct the Gaudin through the forest expansion of the determinant appearing in its definition. We also use this procedure to compute the norm of off-shell Bethe states for some simple cases.
