description: Halal requirement in food is important for millions of Muslims worldwide especially for meat and chicken products, insuring that slaughter houses adhere to this requirement is a challenging task to do manually. In this paper a method is proposed that uses a camera that takes images of slaughtered chicken on the conveyor in a slaughter house, the images are then analyzed by a deep neural network to classify if the image is of a halal slaughtered chicken or not. However, traditional deep learning models require large amounts of data to train on, which in this case these amounts of data were challenging to collect especially the images of non-halal slaughtered chicken, hence this paper shows how the use of one shot learning [1] and transfer learning [2] can reach high accuracy on the few amounts of data that were available. The architecture used is based on the Siamese neural networks architecture which ranks the similarity between two inputs [3] while using the Xception network [4] as the twin networks. We call it HalalNet. This work was done as part of SYCUT (syriah compliant slaughtering system) which is a monitoring system that monitors the halalness of the slaughtered chicken in a slaughter house. The data used to train and validate HalalNet was collected from the Azain slaughtering site (Semenyih, Selangor, Malaysia) containing images of both halal and non-halal slaughtered chicken.

description: In a previous paper [gr-qc/0104001; Class. Quant. Grav. 18 (2001) 3595-3610] we have shown that the occurrence of curved spacetime ``effective Lorentzian geometries'' is a generic result of linearizing an arbitrary classical field theory around some non-trivial background configuration. This observation explains the ubiquitous nature of the ``analog models'' for general relativity that have recently been developed based on condensed matter physics. In the simple (single scalar field) situation analyzed in our previous paper, there is a single unique effective metric; more complicated situations can lead to bi-metric and multi-metric theories. In the present paper we will investigate the conditions required to keep the situation under control and compatible with experiment -- either by enforcing a unique effective metric (as would be required to be strictly compatible with the Einstein Equivalence Principle), or at the worst by arranging things so that there are multiple metrics that are all ``close'' to each other (in order to be compatible with the {\Eotvos} experiment). The algebraically most general situation leads to a physical model whose mathematical description requires an extension of the usual notion of Finsler geometry to a Lorentzian-signature pseudo-Finsler geometry; while this is possibly of some interest in its own right, this particular case does not seem to be immediately relevant for either particle physics or gravitation. The key result is that wide classes of theories lend themselves to an effective metric description. This observation provides further evidence that the notion of ``analog gravity'' is rather generic.

Election night forecasting : Australian House of Representatives elections
Creators: name: Cunningham, Ross
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1979
Subjects: subject: Australia. Parliament. House of Representatives Elections
subject: Election forecasting Australia

description: This thesis develops a statistical methodology, based on early counts, for prediction of final outcomes in Australian House of Representatives elections. The basis of the method is that early counts, after being reduced to a two party preferred vote for each Division, can be corrected for bias which typically arises in early returns because of the nonrepresentative nature of the sample. An analysis based on two party swing is used to predict results in Divisions where no counts have been recorded. The model provides estimates of variance from which statements on the probabilistic uncertainty of the seat being won by either party can be made. Basically the method requires the assumptions that patterns of bias will remain consistent from one election to the next and that average swing is a useful predictor where no information is available. That is, there are no violent fluctuations from State to State or between Divisions within States. It is also assumed that electoral redistributions will not greatly affect the nature of the bias in each of the new Divisions. The method is evaluated using data from the 1974, 1975 and 1977 elections for NSW Divisions only. Predictions are made for the 1975 data based on an analysis of the 1974 data. An analysis of the pooled 1974 and 1975 data provides input for predictions of the 1977 result. The results of these analyses suggest that the model performs satisfactorily and it certainly offers much more than the methods currently used.
On "time-periodic" black-hole solutions to certain spherically symmetric Einstein-matter systems

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper explores ``black hole'' solutions of various Einstein-wave matter systems admitting an isometry of their domain of outer communications taking every point to its future. In the first two parts, it is shown that such solutions, assuming in addition that they are spherically symmetric and the matter has a certain structure, must be Schwarzschild or Reissner-Nordstrom. Non-trivial examples of matter for which the result applies are a wave map and a massive charged scalar field interacting with an electromagnetic field. The results thus generalize work of Bekenstein [1] and Heusler [12] from the static to the periodic case. In the third part, which is independent of the first two, it is shown that Dirac fields preserved by an isometry of a spherically symmetric domain of outer communications of the type described above must vanish. It can be applied in particular to the Einstein-Dirac-Maxwell equations or the Einstein-Dirac-Yang/Mills equations, generalizing work of Finster, Smoller, and Yau [9], [7], [8], and also [6].

description: The complexity of the chemical makeup of wood is such that it is very difficult to define the inter-relationship of the various major components. This thesis has endeavoured to outline inconsistencies found by various researchers with respect to C-14 activity measurements on whole wood and chemical fractions of wood. Wood chemistry literature has been surveyed extensively in an attempt to clarify the relationship between the major components of wood from different tree species. Many pretreatment techniques used to isolate an uncontaminated chemical wood fraction for C-14 activity measurements have been described in the literature. Several of these techniques have been studied with respect to both fresh and degraded wood in order to compare their efficiency in isolating a viable chemical fraction which is free of any possible contaminating components. It has been concluded that, because of the variability in chemical makeup of wood from different tree species, the only reliable chemical fraction is pure cellulose. The problem of solvent retention in wood after extraction processes has been examined using C-14 labelled solvents, and a method minimizing solvent retention has been proposed. The structure of a series of fossil wood samples has been examined using techniques such as X-ray diffraction spectrometry, and it has been found that the degree of structural degradation can be measured. The results are inconclusive with regard to the categorization of possible degradation mechanisms, but they indicate that the possibility exists that some categorization may be obtained from a more detailed study.

description: This paper presents experiences from a flipped classroom M.Sc. course on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). The students that finished successfully this course participated in twelve short workshops, based on a flipped classroom model. Each workshop focused on a specific HCI activity, while before the workshops, a two-hour lecture was used to introduce the students in the flipped learning concept. All the rest of the educational material was offered to the students online before each workshop. Such material was mainly short lectures from the professor, in the form of videos uploaded in the course's YouTube channel and documents delivered using the university learning management system (LMS). For each workshop the students had to be prepared to participate, which was tested using brief quizzes before the start of specific workshops. The activity presented in this paper was the design and evaluation of an interactive system. The students were asked to form six groups comprising of three to four students each. Then a system's description, vague enough to stimulate creativity, was randomly assigned to each group. This activity presented in this paper was the longest activity of the entire course and it was conducted in four consequent workshops. The paper presents the setting of this experiment, the peer assessment method and the use of eye-tracking data collected and analysed to aid the students towards improving their design. The students created a working model of the system with limited functionality and improved this model using eye-tracking data from the peer evaluation of this model. The use of these data offered them the insight to improve their models and to undergo design changes. The paper presents samples of the progress made between various versions of the models and concludes presenting the preliminary positive results of the students qualitative evaluation of this experiment.

description: Raman spectroscopy is widely used to assess the quality of 2D materials thin films. This report focuses on $\rm{PtSe_2}$, a noble transition metal dichalcogenide which has the remarkable property to transit from a semi-conductor to a semi-metal with increasing layer number. While polycrystalline $\rm{PtSe_2}$ can be grown with various crystalline qualities, getting insight into the monocrystalline intrinsic properties remains challenging. We report on the study of exfoliated 1 to 10 layers $\rm{PtSe_2}$ by Raman spectroscopy, featuring record linewidth. The clear Raman signatures allow layer-thickness identification and provides a reference metrics to assess crystal quality of grown films.

Evolution of the discrepancy between a universe and its model

Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study a fundamental issue in cosmology: Whether we can rely on a cosmological model to understand the real history of the Universe. This fundamental, still unresolved issue is often called the ``model-fitting problem (or averaging problem) in cosmology''. Here we analyze this issue with the help of the spectral scheme prepared in the preceding studies. Choosing two specific spatial geometries that are very close to each other, we investigate explicitly the time evolution of the spectral distance between them; as two spatial geometries, we choose a flat 3-torus and a perturbed geometry around it, mimicking the relation of a ``model universe'' and the ``real Universe''. Then we estimate the spectral distance between them and investigate its time evolution explicitly. This analysis is done efficiently by making use of the basic results of the standard linear structure-formation theory. We observe that, as far as the linear perturbation of geometry is valid, the spectral distance does not increase with time prominently,rather it shows the tendency to decrease. This result is compatible with the general belief in the reliability of describing the Universe by means of a model, and calls for more detailed studies along the same line including the investigation of wider class of spacetimes and the analysis beyond the linear regime.

description: We discuss in the framework of black hole thermodynamics some aspects relative to the third law in the case of black holes of the Kerr-Newman family. In the light of the standard proof of the equivalence between the unattainability of the zero temperature and the entropic version of the third law it is remarked that the unattainability has a special character in black hole thermodynamics. Also the zero temperature limit which obtained in the case of very massive black holes is discussed and it is shown that a violation of the entropic version in the charged case occurs. The violation of the Bekenstein-Hawking law in favour of zero entropy S_E=0 in the case of extremal black holes is suggested as a natural solution for a possible violation of the second law of thermodynamics. Thermostatic arguments in support of the unattainability are explored, and $S_E=0$ for extremal black holes is shown to be again a viable solution. The third law of black hole dynamics by W.Israel is then interpreted as a further strong corroboration to the picture of a discontinuity between extremal states and non-extremal ones.

Direct $CP$ violation for $\bar{B}_s^0 \to ϕ{π^+}{π^-}$ in Perturbative QCD

description: In perturbative QCD approach, we study the direct $CP$ violation in the decay of $\bar{B}_s^0\toρ(ω)ϕ\to {π^+}{π^-}ϕ$ via isospin symmetry breaking. An interesting mechanism involving the charge symmetry violating between $ρ$ and $ω$ is applied to enlarge the $CP$ violating asymmetry. We find that the $CP$ violation can be enhanced by the $ρ-ω$ mixing mechanism when the invariant masses of the $π^+π^-$ pairs are in the vicinity of the $ω$ resonance. For the decay process of $\bar{B}^0_{s}\toρ(ω)ϕ\to{π^+}{π^-}ϕ$, the maximum $CP$ violation can reach $5.98\%$. The possibility of detecting the $CP$ violation is also presented.
The politics of a permeable coalition : the Australian Labor Party 1955-1972
Creators: name: Stephens, David Hector
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1979
Subjects: subject: Australian Labor Party
subject: Decision-making

description: An examination of the structure of the Australian Labor Party, a general view of its history and a knowledge of what others have written about organisations yields hypotheses about the likely influences on decisionmaking by the Federal bodies of the ALP in three specific areas. The thirteen hypotheses relate to various strivings within the party and to a number of possible external influences upon it. The hypotheses are tested in three case studies which concern unity tickets in trade union elections, 1955-61, state aid to non-state schools, 1963-66, and foreign and defence policy, especially in relation to Vietnam, 1966-67. The case studies yield three more hypotheses about how the party makes decisions. These further hypotheses incorporate concepts which have been found useful in studies by others of decisionmaking in other organisations but which rarely have been applied to political parties, as they are here. As well as testing the hypotheses, the thesis draws general conclusions about the effects both of the party's structure and conventions and of its susceptibility to external influences upon its ability to make decisions. It also suggests how the way the party made decisions affected its ability to survive as an organisation. The central argument of the thesis is that, during the period under consideration, 1955 to 1972, and perhaps always, the need to keep the coalition together by making concessions to sub-coalitions is just as important a consideration for decisionmakers as is the need to produce electoral policy and that the former need will affect all the party's important decisionmaking. Finally, the thesis examines a number of attempts at organisational reform which attempted to by-pass the parts of the structure mainly concerned with coalition-maintenance, in order to make electoral policies on their merits as vote winners and as solutions to problems in the community. It is argued that by-passing was based on a particular political strategy which became associated with E.G. Whitlam, that this strategy incorporated an incomplete view of the nature of politics and that the party's future development requires the closer identification of electoral policy with the internal politics of the party.

description: Future wireless networks and sensing systems will benefit from access to large chunks of spectrum above 100 GHz, to achieve terabit-per-second data rates in 6th Generation (6G) cellular systems and improve accuracy and reach of Earth exploration and sensing and radio astronomy applications. These are extremely sensitive to interference from artificial signals, thus the spectrum above 100 GHz features several bands which are protected from active transmissions under current spectrum regulations. To provide more agile access to the spectrum for both services, active and passive users will have to coexist without harming passive sensing operations. In this paper, we provide the first, fundamental analysis of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) that large-scale terrestrial deployments introduce in different satellite sensing systems now orbiting the Earth. We develop a geometry-based analysis and extend it into a data-driven model which accounts for realistic propagation, building obstruction, ground reflection, for network topology with up to $10^5$ nodes in more than $85$ km$^2$. We show that the presence of harmful RFI depends on several factors, including network load, density and topology, satellite orientation, and building density. The results and methodology provide the foundation for the development of coexistence solutions and spectrum policy towards 6G.

Class consciousness and industrial relations : a study of trade union leadership ideologies
Creators: name: Small, Winston
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981
Subjects: subject: Labor unions Australia
subject: Industrial relations Australia

description: The survey of trade union leadership attitudes reported in this study marks an attempt to empirically investigate two central theoretical propositions about unions and union leaders. The first of these concerns the question of whether manual and nonmanual unionism are associated with different forms of consciousness. The second objective involves an empirical test of the claim that the influence of the 'dominant ideas' penetrates trade union leadership thinking and that this basically accounts for their economistic and reformist industrial strategies. The study outlines the many sources of variation in trade union leadership attitudes and highlights their ambiguities and contradictions in trade union leadership consciousness. A particular theoretical concern of the study is the attempt to identify the structural possibilities for class consciousness and class action on the part of organised labour. To this end, the objective conditions for class consciousness and its institutional expressions in the form of trade unions and industrial relations are highlighted by means of analysis of fundamental changes within the labour process of the prevailing mode of production. This conceptual approach contributes greatly to sociological understanding of the subjective implications of the economic recession for the consciousness of the leadership of organised labour.

description: Background: The monitoring of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in microorganisms that circulate in the environment is an important topic of scientific research and contributes to the development of action plans to combat the spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. As a synanthropic vector for multiple pathogens and a reservoir for AMR, flies can be used for surveillance. Methods: We collected 163 flies in the inner city of Berlin and examined them for extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli genotypically and phenotypically. Results: The prevalence of ESBL-producing E. coli in flies was 12.9%. Almost half (47.6%) of the ESBL-positive samples showed a co-resistance to ciprofloxacin. Resistance to carbapenems or colistin was not detected. The predominant ESBL-type was CTX-M-1, which is associated with wildlife, livestock, and companion animals as a potential major source of transmission of MDR E. coli to flies. Conclusions: This field study confirms the permanent presence of ESBL-producing E. coli in an urban fly population. For continuous monitoring of environmental contamination with multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, flies can be used as indicators without much effort.

description: The account is based upon recursive time-series analysis and its application to the study of river catchment behaviour in order to predict future events. The Lerderderg Representative Basin, in Victoria, was selected as a range of hydrological data was available for this catchment on magnetic tape from the Land Use Research Division of CSIRO. Additional information on soil morphology and fire history was obtained from other sources. The rainfall, runoff, evaporation and temperature records was analysed using the CAPTAIN package program and both short-term (hourly data) and long term (daily data) were considered. Since there were no available observations for soil moisture the non-linear soil moisture compensation algorithm of CAPTAIN was used. Transfer functions and steady state gain were calculated and impulse responses analysed. Short-term response was found to give a better explanation of the behaviour of the Lerderderg river system than that using long­ term response. For the long term analysis the model employing temperature effects was found to be more satisfactory than those based upon evaporation. The most successful model used dry bulb temperatures although as might be expected, very similar results were obtained for analysis based upon daily maximum temperature. Problems in using the technique are discussed and suggestions made for future lines of inquiry.

description: Rapid growth in delivery and freight transportation is increasing in urban areas; as a result the use of delivery trucks and light commercial vehicles is evolving. Major cities can use traffic counting as a tool to monitor the presence of delivery vehicles in order to implement intelligent city planning measures. Classical methods for counting vehicles use mechanical, electromagnetic or pneumatic sensors, but these devices are costly, difficult to implement and only detect the presence of vehicles without giving information about their category, model or trajectory. This paper proposes a Deep Learning tool for classifying vehicles in a given image while considering different categories of logistic vehicles, namely: light-duty, medium-duty and heavy-duty vehicles. The proposed approach yields two main contributions: first we developed an architecture to create an annotated and balanced database of logistic vehicles, reducing manual annotation efforts. Second, we built a classifier that accurately classifies the logistic vehicles passing through a given road. The results of this work are: first, a database of 72 000 images for 4 vehicles classes; and second two retrained convolutional neural networks (InceptionV3 and MobileNetV2) capable of classifying vehicles with accuracies over 90%.

description: Mongolicosa pseudoferruginea group
 Mongolicosa pseudoferruginea group— Marusik et al. 2004: 131.
 Diagnosis. Species from this group can be distinguished by the touching lips of the epigyne (Marusik et al. 2004).
 Composition. This species group includes eight species: M. buryatica Marusik, Azarkina & Koponen, 2004 (Eastern Sayan Mountains), M. cherepanovi Fomichev & Marusik, 2018 (Mongolian Altai), M. glupovi Marusik, Azarkina & Koponen, 2004 (Altai Mountains), M. lizae sp. n. (Eastern Tannu-Ola Mountains), M. mongolensis Marusik, Azarkina & Koponen, 2004 (Khangai Mountains) M. ozkutuki Fomichev & Marusik, 2018 (Mongolian Altai), M. pseudoferruginea (Schenkel, 1936) (Eastern Tian Shan Mountains) and M. uncia Fomichev & Marusik, 2017 (Mongolian Altai).
 Comments. Marusik et al. (2004) split the genus into two groups on the basis of the epigynal shape, without taking into account the morphology of the male palp. This was due to the fact that males are not known for many Mongolicosa species; until now, about half of species of this genus are known from females only (World Spider Catalog 2021).

description: We prove existence and uniqueness results for patterns of circles with prescribed intersection angles in constant curvature surfaces. Our method is based on two new functionals--one for the Euclidean and one for the hyperbolic case. We show how Colin de Verdi`ere's, Br"agger's and Rivin's functionals can be derived from ours.

description: Mitigation of the impact of foreground contributions to measurements of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization is a crucial step in modern CMB data analysis and is of particular importance for a detection of large-scale CMB $B$ modes. A large variety of techniques, based on different assumptions and aiming at either a full component separation or merely cleaning the foreground signals from the CMB maps, have been described in the literature. In this work, we consider this problem within a unified framework based on the maximum likelihood principle, under the assumption that the signal at each frequency can be represented as a linear mixture of sky templates. We discuss the impact of various additional assumptions on the final outcome of the procedure. We find that the component separation problem can be fully solved in two specific situations: when we either know the frequency scaling of all the components or can correctly model them with a limited number of unknown parameters, as is the case in the parametric component separation techniques; or when we either know the statistical properties of all the components, the foregrounds and CMB, or can correctly model them with a limited number of parameters, as for instance in SMICA-like approaches. However, we also show that much less stringent assumptions are sufficient if we only aim at recovering the cleaned CMB signal. In particular, we discuss a ``minimally informed'' non-parametric method based on maximum likelihood. The method only assumes that the component properties are independent on the sky direction, at least over some region of the sky, and that the CMB covariance is known up to some limited number of parameters. We apply this method to recover the CMB $B$ modes polarization signal in the context of forthcoming CMB experiments and compare its performance with that of the standard parametric... (abridged)
Blind correction of the EB-leakage in the pixel domain

description: We study the problem of EB-leakage that is associated with incomplete polarized CMB sky. In the blind case that assumes no additional information about the statistical properties and amplitudes of the signal from the missing sky region, we prove that the recycling method (Liu et al.~2018) gives the unique best estimate of the EB-leakage. Compared to the previous method, this method reduces the uncertainties in the BB power spectrum due to EB-leakage by more than one order of magnitude in the most interesting domain of multipoles, where $\ell$ is between $80$ and $200$. This work also provides a useful guideline for observational design of future CMB experiments.

description: The main result of this paper is that the k^{\rm th} continuous Hochschild cohomology groups H^k(\cl M,\cl M) and H^k(\cl M,B(H)) of a von Neumann factor ${\cl M}\subseteq B(H) of type {\rm II}_1 with property Gamma are zero for all positive integers k. The method of proof involves the construction of hyperfinite subfactors with special properties and a new inequality of Grothendieck type for multilinear maps. We prove joint continuity in the $\|\cdot\|_2$-norm of separately ultraweakly continuous multilinear maps, and combine these results to reduce to the case of completely bounded cohomology which is already solved.

description: One of the predictions of the $Λ$CDM cosmological framework is the hierarchical formation of structure, giving rise to dark matter (DM) halos and subhalos. When the latter are massive enough they retain gas (i.e., baryons) and become visible. This is the case of the dwarf satellite galaxies in the Milky Way (MW). Below a certain mass, halos may not accumulate significant amounts of baryons and remain completely dark. However, if DM particles are Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), we expect them to annihilate in subhalos, producing gamma rays which can be detected with the Fermi satellite. Using the three most recent point-source Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) catalogs (3FGL, 2FHL and 3FHL), we search for DM subhalo candidates among the unidentified sources, i.e., sources with no firm association to a known astrophysical object. We apply several selection criteria based on the expected properties of the DM-induced emission from subhalos, which allow us to significantly reduce the list of potential candidates. Then, by characterizing the minimum detection flux of the instrument and comparing our sample to predictions from the Via Lactea II (VL-II) N-body cosmological simulation, we place conservative and robust constraints on the $\langleσv\rangle-m_{DM}$ parameter space. For annihilation via the $τ^+τ^-$ channel, we put an upper limit of $4\times 10^{-26}~(5\times 10^{-25})~cm^3~s^{-1}$ for a mass of 10 (100) GeV. A critical improvement over previous treatments is the repopulation we made to include low-mass subhalos below the VL-II mass resolution. With more advanced subhalo candidate filtering the sensitivity reach of our method can potentially improve these constraints by a factor 3 (2) for $τ^+τ^-$ ($b \bar{b}$) channel.

description: We study through numerical simulation the spherical collapse of isothermal gas in Newtonian gravity. We observe a critical behavior which occurs at the threshold of gravitational instability leading to core formation. For a given initial density profile, we find a critical temperature, which is of the same order as the virial temperature of the initial configuration. For the exact critical temperature, the collapse converges to a self-similar form, the first member in Hunter's family of self-similar solutions. For a temperature close to the critical value, the collapse first approaches this critical solution. Later on, in the supercritical case, the collapse converges to another self-similar solution, which is called the Larson-Penston solution. In the subcritical case, the gas bounces and disperses to infinity. We find two scaling laws: one for the collapsed mass in the supercritical case and the other for the maximum density reached before dispersal in the subcritical case. The value of the critical exponent is measured to be $\simeq 0.11$ in the supercritical case, which agrees well with the predicted value $\simeq 0.10567$. These critical properties are quite similar to those observed in the collapse of a radiation fluid in general relativity. We study the response of the system to temperature fluctuation and discuss astrophysical implications for the insterstellar medium structure and for the star formation process. Newtonian critical behavior is important not only because it provides a simple model for general relativity but also because it is relevant for astrophysical systems such as molecular clouds.
