description: We present a full-scale clinical prototype system for in vivo range verification of proton pencil-beams using the prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy method. The detection system consists of eight LaBr3 scintillators and a tungsten collimator, mounted on a rotating frame. Custom electronics and calibration algorithms have been developed for the measurement of energy- and time-resolved gamma-ray spectra during proton irradiation at a clinical dose rate. Using experimentally determined nuclear reaction cross sections and a GPU-accelerated Monte Carlo simulation, a detailed model of the expected gamma-ray emissions is created for each individual pencil-beam. The absolute range of the proton pencil-beams is determined by minimizing the discrepancy between the measurement and this model, leaving the absolute range of the beam and the elemental concentrations of the irradiated matter as free parameters. The system was characterized in a clinical-like situation by irradiating different phantoms with a scanning pencil-beam. A dose of 0.9 Gy was delivered to a 5x10x10 cm$^3$ target with a beam current of 2 nA incident on the phantom. Different range shifters and materials were used to test the robustness of the verification method and to calculate the accuracy of the detected range. The absolute proton range was determined for each spot of the distal energy layer with a mean statistical precision of 1.1 mm at a 95% confidence level and a mean systematic deviation of 0.5 mm, when aggregating pencil-beam spots within a cylindrical region of 10 mm radius and 10 mm depth. Small range errors that we introduced were successfully detected and even large differences in the elemental composition do not affect the range verification accuracy. These results show that our system is suitable for range verification during patient treatments in our upcoming clinical study.

description: We constrain cosmological parameters using only Hubble parameter data and quantify the impact of future Hubble parameter measurements on parameter estimation for the most typical dark energy models. We first constrain cosmological parameters using 52 current Hubble parameter data including the Hubble constant measurement from the Hubble Space Telescope. Then we simulate the baryon acoustic oscillation signals from WFIRST (Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope) covering the redshift range of $z\in [0.5, 2]$ and the redshift drift data from E-ELT (European Extremely Large Telescope) in the redshift range of $z\in [2,5]$. It is shown that solely using the current Hubble parameter data could give fairly good constraints on cosmological parameters. Compared to the current Hubble parameter data, with the WFIRST observation the $H(z)$ constraints on dark energy would be improved slightly, while with the E-ELT observation the $H(z)$ constraints on dark energy is enormously improved.

description: We present the results of the detailed surface photometry of a sample of early-type galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field. Effective radii, surface brightnesses and total V_606 magnitudes have been obtained, as well as U_300, B_450, I_814, J, H and K colors, which are compared with the predictions of chemical-spectrophotometric models of population synthesis. Spectroscopic redshifts are available for 23 objects. For other 25 photometric redshifts are given. In the -r_e plane the early-type galaxies of the HDF, once the appropriate K+E corrections are applied, turn out to follow the `rest frame' Kormendy relation. This evidence, linked to the dynamical information gathered by Steidel et al.(1996), indicates that these galaxies, even at z~2-3, lie in the Fundamental Plane, in a virial equilibrium condition. At the same redshifts a statistically significant lack of large galaxies [i.e. with Log r_e(kpc) > 0.2] is observed.

Perceptual image hashing using transform domain noise resistant local binary pattern

Subjects: subject: Applied Computer Science

description: A new Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) domain Perceptual Image Hashing (PIH) scheme is proposed in this paper. PIH schemes are designed to extract a set of features from an image to form a compact representation that can be used for image integrity verification. A PIH scheme takes an image as the input, extracts its invariant features and constructs a fixed length output, which is called a hash value. The hash value generated by a PIH scheme is then used for image integrity verification. The basic requirement for any PIH scheme is its robustness to non-malicious distortions and discriminative ability to detect minute level of tampering.The feature extraction phase plays a major role in guaranteeing robustness and tamper detection ability of a PIH scheme. The proposed scheme fuses together the DCT and Noise Resistant Local Binary Pattern (NRLBP) to compute image hash. In this scheme, an input image is divided into non-overlapping blocks. Then, DCT of each non-overlapping block is computed to form a DCT based transformed image block. Subsequently, NRLBP is applied to calculate NRLBP histogram. Histograms of all the blocks are concatenated together to get a hash vector for a single image. It is observed that low frequency DCT coefficients inherently have quite high robustness against non-malicious distortions, hence the NRLBP features extracted from the low frequency DCT coefficients provide high robustness. Computational results exhibit that the proposed hashing scheme outperforms some of the existing hashing schemes as well as can detect localized tamper detection as small as 3% of the original image size and at the same time resilient against non-malicious distortions.

description: We study the Abrikosov-Nielsen-Olesen string in N=2 supersymmetric QED with N=2-preserving superpotential, in which case the Abrikosov string is found to be 1/2-BPS saturated. Adding a quadratic small perturbation in the superpotential breaks N=2 supersymmetry to N=1 supersymmetry. Then the Abrikosov string is no longer BPS saturated. The difference between the string tensions for the non-BPS and BPS saturated situation is found to be negative to the first order of the perturbation parameter.

description: The exact solution of $N=2$ supersymmetric $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory is studied in the framework of the Whitham hierarchies. The solution is identified with a homogeneous solution of a Whitham hierarchy. This integrable hierarchy (Whitham-Toda hierarchy) describes modulation of a quasi-periodic solution of the (generalized) Toda lattice hierarchy associated with the hyperelliptic curves over the quantum moduli space. The relation between the holomorphic pre-potential of the low energy effective action and the $τ$ function of the (generalized) Toda lattice hierarchy is also clarified.

Three different superconducting pairing states are addressed, which are the BCS-type states with the $s$-wave pairing symmetry and the $p+ip$-wave pairing symmetry, and the FFLO pairing state. We elaborate that these three states can be resolved well based on the bulk and surface spectral functions as well as the local density of states. The single impurity effect is also explored, which may help us to differentiate the BCS-type pairing states and the FFLO state further.

Representation of Hamilton-Jacobi equation in optimal control theory with unbounded control set

description: In this paper we study the existence of sufficiently regular representations of Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the optimal control theory with unbounded control set. We use a new method to construct representations for a wide class of Hamiltonians. This class is wider than any constructed before, because we do not require Legendre-Fenchel conjugates of Hamiltonians to be bounded. However, in this case we obtain representations with unbounded control set. We apply the obtained results to study regularities of value functions and correlations between variational and optimal control problems.
Evolutionary Algorithms

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Neural and Evolutionary Computing (cs.NE)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are population-based metaheuristics, originally inspired by aspects of natural evolution. Modern varieties incorporate a broad mixture of search mechanisms, and tend to blend inspiration from nature with pragmatic engineering concerns; however, all EAs essentially operate by maintaining a population of potential solutions and in some way artificially 'evolving' that population over time. Particularly well-known categories of EAs include genetic algorithms (GAs), Genetic Programming (GP), and Evolution Strategies (ES). EAs have proven very successful in practical applications, particularly those requiring solutions to combinatorial problems. EAs are highly flexible and can be configured to address any optimization task, without the requirements for reformulation and/or simplification that would be needed for other techniques. However, this flexibility goes hand in hand with a cost: the tailoring of an EA's configuration and parameters, so as to provide robust performance for a given class of tasks, is often a complex and time-consuming process. This tailoring process is one of the many ongoing research areas associated with EAs.

description: The U.S. Air Force proposed to construct a permanent Patriot Ground-based Air Defense (GBAD) battery location at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, to support two Patriot GBAD batteries. The two locations discussed in this report are two of the alternatives being considered in the Environmental Impact Analysis (EIA) for the Patriot GBAD project. Because the proposed project includes federal funds and lands, it qualifies as an undertaking under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), U.S. Code (USC) Title 54, Section 306108 (54 USC 306108); therefore, an identification-phase cultural resources survey of the project area was planned, and completed in October 2016, to comply with Section 106 regulations. The survey is also being completed to support the EIA process.

description: In a 2009 paper, Dave Benson gave a description in purely algebraic terms of the mod $p$ homology of $Ω(BG^\wedge_p)$, when $G$ is a finite group, $BG^\wedge_p$ is the $p$-completion of its classifying space, and $Ω(BG^\wedge_p)$ is the loop space of $BG^\wedge_p$. The main purpose of this work is to shed new light on Benson's result by extending it to a more general setting. As a special case, we show that if $\mathcal{C}$ is a small category, $|\mathcal{C}|$ is the geometric realization of its nerve, $R$ is a commutative ring, and $|\mathcal{C}|^+_R$ is a "plus construction" for $|\mathcal{C}|$ in the sense of Quillen (taken with respect to $R$-homology), then $H_*(Ω(|\mathcal{C}|^+_R);R)$ can be described as the homology of a chain complex of projective $R\mathcal{C}$-modules satisfying a certain list of algebraic conditions that determine it uniquely up to chain homotopy. Benson's theorem is now the case where $\mathcal{C}$ is the category of a finite group $G$, $R=\mathbb{F}_p$ for some prime $p$, and $|\mathcal{C}|^+_R=BG^\wedge_p$.

description: We present explicit methods for computing the discriminant curves and the associated Kodaira type fiber degeneracies of elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds. These methods are applied to a specific three-family, SU(5) grand unified theory of particle physics within the context of Heterotic M-Theory. It is demonstrated that there is always a region of moduli space where a bulk space five-brane is wrapped on a pure fiber in the Calabi-Yau threefold. Restricting the discussion to the smooth parts of the discriminant curve, we explore the properties of the N=2 BPS supermultiplets that arise on the worldvolume of this five-brane due to the degeneration of the elliptic fiber. The associated degenerating M membranes are shown to project to string junctions in the base space. We use string junction techniques to explicitly compute the light BPS hyper- and vector multiplet spectrum for each Kodaira type fiber near the smooth part of the discriminant curve in the SU(5) GUT theory.

description: We consider a holographic model with the charge current dual to a general nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) field. Taking into account the backreaction of the NLED field on the geometry and introducing axionic scalars to generate momentum dissipation, we obtain expressions for DC conductivities with a finite magnetic field. The properties of the in-plane resistance are examined in several NLED models. For Maxwell-Chern-Simons electrodynamics, negative magneto-resistance and Mott-like behavior could appear in some parameter space region. Depending on the sign of the parameters, we expect the NLED models to mimic some type of weak or strong interactions between electrons. In the latter case, negative magneto-resistance and Mott-like behavior can be realized at low temperatures. Moreover, the Mott insulator to metal transition induced by a magnetic field is also observed at low temperatures.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: The effect of vacuum birefringence is one of the first predictions of quantum electrodynamics (QED): the presence of a charged Dirac field makes the vacuum birefringent when threaded by magnetic fields. This effect, extremely weak for terrestrial magnetic fields, becomes important for highly magnetized astrophysical objects, such as accreting black holes. In the X-ray regime, the polarization of photons traveling in the magnetosphere of a black hole is not frozen at emission but is changed by the local magnetic field. We show that, for photons traveling along the plane of the disk, where the field is expected to be partially organized, this results in a depolarization of the X-ray radiation. Because the amount of depolarization depends on the strength of the magnetic field, this~effect can provide a way to probe the magnetic field in black-hole accretion disks and to study the role of magnetic fields in astrophysical accretion in general.

Tracking and Estimation Algorithms for Bearings Only Measurements
Creators: name: Ozelci, Attila Can
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: The Bearings-only tracking problem is to estimate the state of a moving object from noisy observations of its direction relative to a sensor. The Kalman filter, which provides least squares estimates for linear Gaussian filtering problems is not directly applicable because of the highly nonlinear measurement function of the state, representing the bearings measurements and so other types of filters must be considered. The shifted Rayleigh filter (SRF) is a highly effective moment-matching bearings-only tracking algorithm which has been shown, in 2D, to achieve the accuracy of computationally demanding particle filters in situations where the well-known extended Kalman filter and unscented Kalman filter often fail. This thesis has two principal aims. The first is to develop accurate and computationally efficient algorithms for bearings-only tracking in 3D space. We propose algorithms based on the SRF, that allow tracking, in the presence of clutter, of both nonmaneuvering and maneuvering targets. Their performances are assessed, in relation to competing methods, in highly challenging tracking scenarios, where they are shown to match the accuracy of high-order sophisticated particle filters, at a fraction of the computational cost. The second is to design accurate and consistent algorithms for bearings-only simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). The difficulty of this problem, originating from the uncertainty in the position and orientation of the sensor, and the absence of range information of observed landmarks, motivates the use of advanced bearings-only tracking algorithms. We propose the quadrature-SRF SLAM algorithm, which is a moment-matching filter based on the SRF, that numerically evaluates the exact mean and covariance of the posterior. Simulations illustrate the accuracy and consistency of its estimates in a situation where a widely used moment-matching algorithm fails to produce consistent estimates. We also propose a Rao-Blackwellized SRF implementation of a particle filter, which, however, does not exhibit favorable consistency properties.

description: We report high resolution (2.5 arcsec) CO J=1-0 line imaging which confirms the presence of a molecular disk around the origin of the spectacular, 14 arcmin times 4 arcmin, episodic jets in the planetary nebula KjPn 8. The disk is 30 arcsec in diameter with an expansion velocity of approximately 7 km/s. The axis of the disk is aligned with the youngest and fastest (approximately 300 km/s) of the bipolar jets, and there is evidence for interaction between the jets and the disk material. The inner 4 arcsec of the disk are photo-ionized by the central star. The disk-jet system dominates the environment of this young nebula, and should govern the morphology of KjPn 8 as it evolves to become fully ionized.

description: We investigate the dynamics of open membrane boundaries in a constant C-field background. We follow the analysis for open strings in a B-field background, and take some approximations. We find that open membrane boundaries do show noncommutativity in this case by explicit calculations. Membrane boundaries are one dimensional strings, so we face a new type of noncommutativity, that is, noncommutative strings.

description: Trust is essential in shaping human interactions with one another and with robots. This paper discusses how human trust in robot capabilities transfers across multiple tasks. We first present a human-subject study of two distinct task domains: a Fetch robot performing household tasks and a virtual reality simulation of an autonomous vehicle performing driving and parking maneuvers. The findings expand our understanding of trust and inspire new differentiable models of trust evolution and transfer via latent task representations: (i) a rational Bayes model, (ii) a data-driven neural network model, and (iii) a hybrid model that combines the two. Experiments show that the proposed models outperform prevailing models when predicting trust over unseen tasks and users. These results suggest that (i) task-dependent functional trust models capture human trust in robot capabilities more accurately, and (ii) trust transfer across tasks can be inferred to a good degree. The latter enables trust-mediated robot decision-making for fluent human-robot interaction in multi-task settings.

Optical Traps for Single Cell Analysis
Creators: name: Phillips, John Robert
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: In order to better understand the development and spread of cancer, the methods by which cells communicate and disseminate information must be closely examined. As such, membrane proteins are an important target in modern cancer research due to their role in cellular signalling cascades. Disruption of these cascades can lead to abnormal cell growth and the onset of cancer. Therefore, characterising the recruitment and action of such membrane proteins is a key facet of the Single Cell Proteomics (SCP) initiative. This thesis lays out work on the use of optical trapping methods to study membrane proteins on single cancer cells. Optical traps provide a sterile, versatile toolset to manipulate single cells, and have been used here to manipulate cells both directly and indirectly. Direct manipulation of cells is used force them into contact to characterise the behaviour of the second messenger protein kinase Cε (PKCε). Particular attention is given both to the stage of the growth cycle of cells during recruitment, and to the effects of free calcium in both facilitating the accumulation of PKCε, and cell-to-cell adhesion strength. The indirect manipulation of cells takes a different approach to the study of membrane proteins, through the use of “Smart Droplet Microtools” as sampling agents. Comprised of micron-sized lipid-coated droplets with either a solid or oil core, SDMs exchange material with the cellular membrane when brought into contact with it. These SDMs can simultaneously remove membrane proteins from multiple sites on the same cell, providing spatial selectivity of the target protein. The SDMs can then transport the proteins downstream to interface with other techniques for further analysis. This project details not only improvements in stability and efficiency of these SDMs, but also provides the first examples of the transfer of their cargo onto solid-supported lipid bilayers and antibody microarrays for readout.

HLA-mediated control and CD8+ T cell response mechanisms in persistent viral infections
Creators: name: Seich Al Basatena, Nafisa-Katrin
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: Background: There are many viruses that result in persistent infections affecting millions of people worldwide. Although our immune system deploys different strategies to eliminate them, many times they prove unsuccessful and call for a better understanding of the host-virus interplay. One important weapon of the immune system is CD8+ T cells which identify infected cells and limit the spread of infection using different effector mechanisms. Aim: The aim of this study is two-fold; the investigation of 1) the impact of immunogenetic factors such as HLA class I molecules and Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) on CD8+ T cell responses and 2) the efficiency of lytic and non-lytic CD8+ T cell responses and how they shape viral escape dynamics. Methods: The methods used to address the aims include statistical models, high-throughput sequence analysis, ordinary differential equation models and agent-based models. Results: We find that HLA class I molecules explain a small percentage of the heterogeneity observed in the outcome of HCV, HTLV-1 and HIV infections. However, we show that an inhibitory KIR, namely KIR2DL2, can enhance both protective and detrimental HLA class I-restricted anti-viral immunity, for both HCV and HTLV-1 infections and in a manner compatible with the modulation of CD8+ T cell downstream responses. Furthermore, for HIV/SIV infection, we show that the CD8+ T cell control of the infection can be consistent with a non-lytic mechanism. Additionally, we find that lytic CD8+ T cell responses are more efficient than non-lytic responses which can lead to slower and less frequent viral escape explained by spatial factors. Conclusions: We conclude that KIRs can play an important role in shaping HLA class-I mediated immunity and suggest that this occurs in synergy with CD8+ T cells whose lytic and non-lytic effector functions can differ in efficiency and lead to variable viral escape rates.
Resolving spin physics in self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots
Creators: name: Taylor, Matthew William
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: Semiconductor nanostructures and, in particular, quantum dots (QDs) have been at the forefront of solid-state research for several decades and represent attractive candidates for applications in quantum information and spintronics. QDs are characterised by their quasi-three-dimensional quantum confinement of electrons and holes which results in an ‘artificial-atom’ like structure with discrete but accessible energy levels. In addition, the spin of carriers in QDs are relatively isolated from typical spin relaxation mechanisms. This thesis investigates the spin physics of self-assembled InAs/GaAs QDs grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The design and growth of QD structures is described and it is shown how spin effects may be investigated using circularly polarised (CP) light. This work demonstrates how spin physics may be resolved through analysis of the emission polarisation of a QD ensemble. In particular, a slope in the polarisation spectrum induced by CP excitation is shown to correlate with a splitting between polarisation states of the QDs. This idea is developed to create a new technique capable of resolving spin splittings far narrower than the ensemble inhomogeneous linewidth. The technique is validated by resolving Zeeman splitting, allowing g-factors and QD fine-structure effects to be measured. The sensitivity to external magnetic field and the dynamics of the optically induced polarisation splitting are investigated. A novel QD spin memory is demonstrated with a long lifetime consistent with dynamic nuclear spin polarisation (DNSP). However, a rapid initialisation of the effect contradicts the traditional understanding of DNSP and may open the door to new spin physics in QDs. A connection is demonstrated between the polarisation splitting and the phenomenon of negative circular polarisation (NCP). It is shown that NCP, previously only observed in n-doped QDs, is in fact a general property of all QDs regardless of doping level, calling into question the currently accepted generation mechanism.
Efficient linear, Stabilized, second-order time marching schemes for an anisotropic phase field dendritic crystal growth model
Creators: name: Yang, Xiaofeng
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We consider numerical approximations for a phase field dendritic crystal growth model, which is a highly nonlinear system that couples the anisotropic Allen-Cahn type equation and the heat equation together. We propose two efficient, linear, second-order time marching schemes. The first one is based on the linear stabilization approach where all nonlinear terms are treated explicitly and one only needs to solve two linear and decoupled second-order equations. Two linear stabilizers are added to enhance the energy stability, therefore the scheme is quite efficient and stable that allows for large time steps in computations. The second one combines the recently developed Invariant Energy Quadratization approach with the linear stabilization approach. Two linear stabilization terms, which are shown to be crucial to remove the oscillations caused by the anisotropic coefficients numerically, are added as well. We further show the obtained linear system is well-posed and prove its unconditional energy stability rigorously. For both schemes, various 2D and 3D numerical simulations are implemented to demonstrate the stability and accuracy.

On Modular Invariant Partition Functions of Conformal Field Theories with Logarithmic Operators
Creators: name: Flohr, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We extend the definitions of characters and partition functions to the case of conformal field theories which contain operators with logarithmic correlation functions. As an example we consider the theories with central charge c = c(p,1) = 13-6(p+1/p), the ``border'' of the discrete minimal series. We show that there is a slightly generalized form of the property of rationality for such logarithmic theories. In particular, we obtain a classification of theories with c = c(p,1) which is similar to the A-D-E classification of c = 1 models.
