Culture and State Intelligence Behaviour: A Retroductive Explanation of China’s National Intelligence Culture
Creators: name: R. Bullock, Christopher
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2025

description: This thesis argues that a state’s cultured beliefs have a real and direct causal influence on its intelligence behaviour by shaping how a state perceives intelligence, believes intelligence should interconnect with society, and thinks intelligence systems should be structured and managed. To this end, the thesis first introduces a theory of national intelligence culture to explain how culture influences state intelligence behaviour and why this cultural influence leads to variations in behaviour between states. Its embrace of a critical realist research design and rejection that observability is the sole basis for judging the reality of things makes the proposed theoretical framework able to explain cultural influences even if empirically observing that causal influence might be impossible. In other words, the study’s primary contribution is in providing a framework to explain culture’s causal power and influence on a state’s intelligence behaviour. Second, the thesis applies the proposed framework to explain the cultural influences on the People’s Republic of China’s contemporary intelligence behaviour. Drawing on an extensive body of Western scholarship and Chinese language sources, this study demonstrates that a cultural approach can provide a more in-depth understanding of China’s evolving use of cyber-enabled economic espionage to support the country’s national development than the structuralist theories that have traditionally dominated the study of intelligence. The key argument of this study is that cultural influences offer the best explanation of China's intelligence behaviour and why it has not conformed to US and broader Western views on what is acceptable and what is unacceptable in the game of intelligence. It also demonstrates that the academic study of intelligence benefits from intentionally introducing non-Western perspectives.

Predicting flow

description: Podded propulsor units are one of the latest innovations in the filed of propulsion, and are used in many commercial and recreational vessels. The major advantage of these units over conventional propeller based system is their ability to provide thrust in all directions, giving high maneuverability and good seakeeping characteristics. Podded propulsors or general geometry are modeled numerically in 3-D and the flow around the propulers, the pod, and the strut is evaluated. A general method of coupling of a Finite Volume Method (FVM) and a Vortex Lattice Method (VLM) is applied. The Euler equations are solved using the FVM, which is applied to model the 3-D flow around the pod with the strut, while the VLM models the flow in the vicinity of the propeller. Iterations are performed between the two methods until the solution converges. The purpose of using the above approach is to determine the effective wake of each component of the propulsor, which is modified due to the presence of the other components, and evaluate its performance subject to this effective inflow velocity. The overall goal of this research is to predict the forces on the whole propeller and pod unit at various angles of attack, by integration of the pressures. The results from the present method are compared with those of other methods, as well as, validated with measurements from experiments.
Imparting Yoga Texts in Saṃskṛta : A Teaching Experiment and Its Outcome

description: Currently, Yoga texts in the Saṃskṛta language are taught worldwide through the medium of other languages. Scholars and teachers would agree that knowledge of Saṃskṛta is essential for better appreciation of yogic wisdom. In such a situation, can an attempt be made to teach Yoga texts in a time-bound manner, with maximum possible usage of Saṃskṛta, without getting into the nitty-gritty of Saṃskṛta grammar, even for a learner without Saṃskṛta background? A two-day international workshop on the Haṭhayogapradīpikā was organized at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in August 2017 to attempt an answer to the above proposition. There were 97 registered participants in the workshop (India, 89; other countries, 8). This paper, which is about this experiment, is in two parts: A) The description of the teaching experiment, and B) its outcome as revealed by the analysis of the written feedback forms.

description: We experimentally realize the internal and external entanglement tradeoff, which is a new kind of entanglement monogamy relation different from that usually discussed. Using a source of twin photons, we find that the external entanglement in polarization of twin photons, and the path-polarization internal entanglement of one photon, limit each other. In the extreme case, when the internal state is maximally entangled, the external entanglement must be vanishing, that illustrate entanglement monogamy. Our results of the experiment coincide with the theoretical predictions, and therefore provide a direct experimental observation of the internal and external entanglement monogamy relation.

description: This paper discusses mixing of chaotic systems as a dependable method for secure communication. Distribution of the entropy function for steady state as well as plaintext input sequences are analyzed. It is shown that the mixing of chaotic sequences results in a sequence that does not have any state dependence on the information encrypted by them. The generated output states of such a cipher approach the theoretical maximum for both complexity measures and cycle length. These features are then compared with some popular ciphers.

description: Autonomous landing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in crowded scenarios is crucial for successful deployment of UAVs in populated areas, particularly in emergency landing situations where the highest priority is to avoid hurting people. In this work, a new visual-based algorithm for identifying Safe Landing Zones (SLZ) in crowded scenarios is proposed, considering a camera mounted on an UAV, where the people in the scene move with unknown dynamics. To do so, a density map is generated for each image frame using a Deep Neural Network, from where a binary occupancy map is obtained aiming to overestimate the people's location for security reasons. Then, the occupancy map is projected to the head's plane, and the SLZ candidates are obtained as circular regions in the head's plane with a minimum security radius. Finally, to keep track of the SLZ candidates, a multiple instance tracking algorithm is implemented using Kalman Filters along with the Hungarian algorithm for data association. Several scenarios were studied to prove the validity of the proposed strategy, including public datasets and real uncontrolled scenarios with people moving in public squares, taken from an UAV in flight. The study showed promising results in the search of preventing the UAV from hurting people during emergency landing.

description: A percolation model is presented, with computer simulations for illustrations, to show how the sales of a new product may penetrate the consumer market. We review the traditional approach in the marketing literature, which is based on differential or difference equations similar to the logistic equation (Bass 1969). This mean field approach is contrasted with the discrete percolation on a lattice, with simulations of "social percolation" (Solomon et al 2000) in two to five dimensions giving power laws instead of exponential growth, and strong fluctuations right at the percolation threshold.

description: Background: Predictive modeling is a key component of solutions to many healthcare problems. Among all predictive modeling approaches, machine learning methods often achieve the highest prediction accuracy, but suffer from a long-standing open problem precluding their widespread use in healthcare. Most machine learning models give no explanation for their prediction results, whereas interpretability is essential for a predictive model to be adopted in typical healthcare settings. Methods: This paper presents the first complete method for automatically explaining results for any machine learning predictive model without degrading accuracy. We did a computer coding implementation of the method. Using the electronic medical record data set from the Practice Fusion diabetes classification competition containing patient records from all 50 states in the United States, we demonstrated the method on predicting type 2 diabetes diagnosis within the next year. Results: For the champion machine learning model of the competition, our method explained prediction results for 87.4% of patients who were correctly predicted by the model to have type 2 diabetes diagnosis within the next year. Conclusions: Our demonstration showed the feasibility of automatically explaining results for any machine learning predictive model without degrading accuracy.

description: The phase perturbation arising from spin-rotation coupling is developed as a natural extension of the celebrated Sagnac effect. Experimental evidence in support of this phase shift, however, has yet to be realized due to the exceptional sensitivity required. We draw attention to the relevance of a series of experiments establishing that circularly polarized light, upon passing through a rotating half-wave plate, is changed in frequency by twice the rotation rate. These experiments may be interpreted as demonstrating the role of spin-rotation coupling in inducing this frequency shift, thus providing direct empirical verification of the coupling of the photon helicity to rotation. A neutron interferometry experiment is proposed which would be sensitive to an analogous frequency shift for fermions. In this arrangement, polarized neutrons enter an interferometer containing two spin flippers, one of which is rotating while the other is held stationary. An observable beating in the transmitted neutron beam intensity is predicted.

description: Thylamys (Thylamys) pusillus (Desmarest, 1804)
TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: MVZ 144311, the neotype (designated by Voss et al., 2009a), consists of the skin and skull of an adult male collected on the Trans-Chaco Highway (Ruta Nacional 9) 460 km NW Villa Hayes (ca. 28.37° S, 60.20° W), Boquerón department, Paraguay.
 SYNONYMS: bruchi Thomas, 1921; citellus Thomas, 1912; nanus Olfers, 1818; pulchellus Cabrera,1934; verax Thomas, 1921.
 DISTRIBUTION: As recognized herein (see Remarks), Thylamys pusillus occurs in southeastern Bolivia, western Paraguay, and northern Argentina, including the Dry Chaco, Humid Chaco, Mesopotamian Savanna, and Humid Pampas ecoregions (Teta et al., 2009: fig. 1).
 REMARKS: Teta et al. (2009) recognized Thylamys citellus and T. pulchellus as valid species distinct from T. pusillus, but Giarla et al. (2010: 41–43) were unable to distinguish these allopatric taxa morphologically and, therefore, treated them as synonyms. South American authors (e.g., Palma et al., 2014) have subsequently tended to follow Teta et al. (2009), so the binomina T. citellus and T. pulchellus remain in current use. Because geographic variation in morphology and isolation by distance remain plausible explanations for the reported phenotypic and genetic differences among these nominal taxa, it still seems an appropriately conservative option to treat them as conspecific.

 SYNONYMS: janetta Thomas, 1926.
 DISTRIBUTION: Thylamys sponsorius occurs along the foothills and eastern slopes of the Andes at recorded elevations from about 500 m to over 3700 m in southern Bolivia (Tarija) and northwestern Argentina (Jujuy, Salta, Tucumán, Catamarca) (Giarla et al., 2010: fig. 9).
 REMARKS: For an emended morphological description, measurement data, and comparisons with congeneric taxa, see Giarla et al. (2010). Phylogenetic analyses of multilocus sequence datasets (Giarla et al., 2010; Díaz-Nieto et al., 2016a; Amador and Giannini, 2016) consistently recover Thylamys sponsorius and T. venustus as sister taxa. Morphological analyses of sequenced specimens suggest that these closely related species are primarily distinguished by size, although no single measurement is diagnostic (Giarla et al., 2010).

description: A static, spherically symmetric and purely magnetic solution of the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Dilaton theory, found previously by numerical integration is shown to obey a system of first order Bogomol'nyi equations. As common for such equations, there is a tight relation to supersymmetry, in the present case to the N=4 gauged SU(2)$\times$SU(2) supergravity of Freedman and Schwarz. Specifically, the dilaton potential of the latter can be avoided by choosing one of the two gauge coupling constants to be imaginary. It is argued that this corresponds to a hitherto unknown N=4 gauged SU(2)$\times$SU(1,1) supergravity in four Euclidean dimensions leading to Bogomol'nyi equations with asymptotically flat solutions.

description: Beth Holmgren's book is a monograph of Helena Modrzejewska/Modjeska (1840-1909), the famous Polish-American stage star. The author's purpose was "to introduce a little-remembered actress to a new American audience" (p. 15). This plan was successfully completed. "Starring Madame Modjeska" is not just a popularized biography but a result of meticulous research and intellectual elaboration. It can be extremely useful for Polish readers (scholars) as it makes use of American resources and a large bibliography inaccessible in Poland. It also presents an analytical rather than simply apologetic attitude, showing a spectrum of roles Modjeska played on- and offstage.

description: We use a 1d model of a superfluid based on the Gross-Pitaevskii Lagrangian to illustrate a general numerical method designed to find quantum tunneling rates in extended bosonic systems. Specifically, we study flow past an obstacle and directly solve the imaginary time dynamics to find the ``bounce'' solution connected with the decay of the metastable laminar state via phase slip nucleation. The action for the tunneling confuguration goes to zero at the threshold (in superfluid velocity) for classical production of these slips. Applications to other processes are briefly discussed.

description: Sky imaging systems use lenses to acquire images concentrating light beams in a sensor. The light beams received by the sky imager have an elevation angle with respect to the device normal. Thus, the pixels in the image contain information from different areas of the sky within the imaging system field of view. The area of the field of view contained in the pixels increases as the elevation angle of the incident light beams decreases. When the sky imager is mounted on a solar tracker, the light beam's angle of incidence in a pixel varies over time. This investigation formulates and compares two geospatial reprojections that transform the original euclidean frame of the imager plane to the geospatial atmosphere cross-section where the sky imager field of view intersects the cloud layer. One assumes that an object (i.e., cloud) moving in the troposphere is sufficiently far so the Earth's surface is approximated \emph{flat}. The other transformation takes into account the curvature of the Earth in the portion of the atmosphere (i.e., voxel) that is recorded. The results show that the differences between the dimensions calculated by both geospatial transformations are in the order of magnitude of kilometers when the Sun's elevation angle is below $30^\circ$.

description: We all love maps. Like many, I grew up with the rich tapestry of Ordnance Survey landranger maps. This OS product uses clever cartography to display many different attributes at the same time. At the opposite end of the scale, we've all seen maps which only display one or two attributes - like continent outlines and temperature. These two map extremes are often created using different tools, with maps featuring many attributes usually developed by hand in a desktop GIS or illustration package and single attribute maps often being the output of a bespoke code, e.g. analysing the output of a climate model. In this talk I'll explore when a point & click interface, like QGIS, is more appropirate to develop a map and when writing code like R is a more suitable solution. I'll use examples from my work in the public sector, consultancy and academia. These examples will encompass environmental data like flood maps, to sociology and economics datasets. You should attend this talk if you want to learn about making maps in R and QGIS and what the advantages of each environment are. https://uk.osgeo.org/foss4guk2019/

description: In this work, we study the binary neural networks (BNNs) of which both the weights and activations are binary (i.e., 1-bit representation). Feature representation is critical for deep neural networks, while in BNNs, the features only differ in signs. Prior work introduces scaling factors into binary weights and activations to reduce the quantization error and effectively improves the classification accuracy of BNNs. However, the scaling factors not only increase the computational complexity of networks, but also make no sense to the signs of binary features. To this end, Self-Distribution Binary Neural Network (SD-BNN) is proposed. Firstly, we utilize Activation Self Distribution (ASD) to adaptively adjust the sign distribution of activations, thereby improve the sign differences of the outputs of the convolution. Secondly, we adjust the sign distribution of weights through Weight Self Distribution (WSD) and then fine-tune the sign distribution of the outputs of the convolution. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet datasets with various network structures show that the proposed SD-BNN consistently outperforms the state-of-the-art (SOTA) BNNs (e.g., achieves 92.5% on CIFAR-10 and 66.5% on ImageNet with ResNet-18) with less computation cost. Code is available at https://github.com/ pingxue-hfut/SD-BNN.

description: Intention recognition is an important characteristic of intelligent agents. In their interactions with others, they try to read others' intentions and make an image of others to choose their actions accordingly. While the way in which players choose their actions depending on such intentions has been investigated in game theory, how dynamic changes in intentions by mutually reading others' intentions are incorporated into game theory has not been explored. We present a novel formulation of game theory in which players read others' intentions and change their own through an iterated game. Here, intention is given as a function of the other's action and the own action to be taken accordingly as the dependent variable, while the mutual recognition of intention is represented as the functional dynamics. It is shown that a player suffers no disadvantage when he/she recognizes the other's intention, whereas the functional dynamics reach equilibria in which both players' intentions are optimized. These cover a classical Nash and Stackelberg equilibria but we extend them in this study: Novel equilibria exist depending on the degree of mutual recognition. Moreover, the degree to which each player recognizes the other can also differ. This formulation is applied to resource competition, duopoly, and prisoner's dilemma games. For example, in the resource competition game with player-dependent capacity on gaining the resource, the superior player's recognition leads to the exploitation of the other, while the inferior player's recognition leads to cooperation through which both players' payoffs increase.

In Saiddhāntika texts, this practice is not closely associated with initiation, rather it is treated as one of eight pratyayas which are achieved by mantra practice and udghāta. The Trika’s Mālinīvijayottara which is presumably earlier than the Tantrasadbhāva, enumerates five different pratyayas and mentions pāśastobha as an optional ritual action. We can see that the Tantrasadbhāva’s emphasis on pāśastobha differs from previous Śaiva Trika literature. Moreover, the application of pāśastobha in initiation seems to be original to the Tantrasadbhāva, especially since Abhinavagupta attests that the secret mantras for the pāśastobha explained in the Tantrāloka are taught in the Tantrasadbhāva. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the process of the adoption of pāśatobha practice into initiation in order to better understand the development of Śaiva initiation. This paper will also look at the nature of the textual layers of the Tantrasadbhāva and its incorporation of materials from the Saiddhāntika and from earlier Trika scriptures.

description: Wspólna recenzja dot. Współczesne wymiary polskiej polityki bezpieczeństwa oraz Bezpieczeństwo Polski. Współczesne wyzwania. Dynamicznie zmieniające się środowisko międzynarodowe i pojawiające się coraz nowsze wyzwania i zagrożenia bezpieczeństwa wymagają współpracy środowisk naukowych ze światem polityki i biznesu. Dzięki tej współpracy można usprawniać funkcjonowanie państwa i wpływać na jego rozwój, a także przezwyciężać zagrożenia bezpieczeństwa zarówno w wymiarze międzynarodowym, narodowym, jak i lokalnym. Ta problematyka szeroko opisywana jest w polskiej literaturze naukowej [1]. Jednakże, ze względu na dynamikę stosunków międzynarodowych większość z dostępnych na rynku opracowań, choć wydanych stosunkowo niedawno, nie uwzględnia najnowszych realiów, jak m.in. kryzys wschodni, kryzys migracyjny, tzw. „Brexit", działalność tzw. Państwa Islamskiego (ISIS) w różnych regionach świata, wzmożona współpraca w dziedzinie energii oraz wiele innych. Publikacje recenzowane w niniejszym tekście są więc odpowiedzią na stałą potrzebę prowadzenia i uaktualniania badań nad bezpieczeństwem Polski pod kątem nowych wyzwań i zagrożeń jakie niesie ze sobą XXI wiek.

description: The project ‘Text Database and Dictionary of Classic Mayan’ compiles the hieroglyphic texts written by the ancient Maya in a machine-readable corpus. The corpus is represented as separate information resources, each described by an ontological model representing the specific semantics and complexities of the material. Using different formats (RDF, XML) and standards (CIDOC-CRM, TEI-P5), the inscriptions are encoded in a multi-level corpus: (1) a TEI-all conform schema defining values and rules for the encoding of the text’s topological and structural features, (2) a ‘Sign Catalogue’ for the classification of Maya hieroglyphs, and (3) the tool ‘ALMAH’ for linguistic analyses. Maya writing is not yet fully deciphered, not all signs are known, and we still deal with competing reading hypotheses and a missing Unicode character set. To represent the script, we use stand-off markup to enable an interlinked structure between distributed sources: The TEI encoding serves as central data source, embedding other information. The project will encode approximately 10,000 texts. To support the workflow, we developed a parser that creates the according TEI/XML structure out of a project-specific sign number transliteration.

description: The German historian Markus Krzoska, who is an expert on Central European history, presents his postdoctoral thesis with the publication "Ein Land unterwegs: Kulturgeschichte Polens seit 1945" ("A Country on its Way: Cultural History of Poland since 1945"). The book changes the typical focus from confirmed knowledge (p. 13f) in the field of political and economic history towards Polish everyday life, in order to describe therein the "Normal" and the "European" (p. 21). Although research into contemporary history does link the micro and macro perspectives more often, this everyday-life approach has hardly been used in the case of Poland before. The author rightly maintains, that the functioning of a political system can only be understood by also taking into account everyday phenomena (p. 27). For this reason, he directs his attention to transnational-political frames and to small-scale and regional structures. He does so by analyzing "big events", like the accession of Poland to the European Union, but also through questions of lifestyle within village communities. With this broad research approach, Krzoska does not only support the idea of a paradigm shift within the historiography of Central and Eastern Europe, but he himself successfully places another type of "Cultural and Social History" (orig. "andere Kultur- und Gesellschaftsgeschichte", p. 25) in the forefront of his research.

description: A series of new glucocorticoid oxadiazines (4–6) were synthesized by reacting glucocorticoids (1–3) with thiosemicarbazide and its derivatives. The structural assignment of products is confirmed on the basis of IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS and analytical data. The synthesized compounds (4–6) obeyed the Lipinski’s “Rule of Five” analysis based on a computational prediction of molecular and pharmacokinetic properties. The interaction studies of compounds (4–6) with DNA were carried out by employing single-cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay), UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. Compounds (4–6) were found capable of cellular DNA degradation breakage in isolated normal human lymphocytes. Viscometric and steady-state measurements further correlated with the comet assay studies. Hence, it could be suggested that the glucocorticoid compounds bearing a core oxadiazine scaffold would be a potent biological agent. Molecular docking studies further characterize the interaction of the synthesized compounds with DNA.

description: We develop a theory of the algorithmic information in bits contained in an individual pure quantum state. This extends classical Kolmogorov complexity to the quantum domain retaining classical descriptions. Quantum Kolmogorov complexity coincides with the classical Kolmogorov complexity on the classical domain. Quantum Kolmogorov complexity is upper bounded and can be effectively approximated from above under certain conditions. With high probability a quantum object is incompressible. Upper- and lower bounds of the quantum complexity of multiple copies of individual pure quantum states are derived and may shed some light on the no-cloning properties of quantum states. In the quantum situation complexity is not sub-additive. We discuss some relations with ``no-cloning'' and ``approximate cloning'' properties.

description: We investigate the ultrafast carrier and phonon dynamics in the ferrimagnetic semiconductor Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$ using time-resolved optical pump-probe spectroscopy. Our results reveal that the electron-phonon thermalization process with a subpicosecond timescale is prolonged by the hot-phonon bottleneck effect. We identify the subsequent relaxation processes associated with two non-radiative recombination mechanisms, i.e., phonon-assisted electron-hole recombination and defect-related Shockley-Read-Hall recombination. Temperature-dependent measurements indicate that all three relaxation components show large variation around 175 and 78 K, which is related to the initiation of spin fluctuation and ferrimagnetic order in Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$. In addition, two pronounced coherent optical phonons are observed, in which the phonon with a frequency of 3.7 THz is attributed to the $A_{1g}$ mode of Te precipitates. Applying the strain pulse propagation model to the coherent acoustic phonons yields a penetration depth of 506 nm and a sound speed of 2.42 km/s in Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$. Our results develop understanding of the nonequilibrium properties of the ferrimagnetic semiconductor Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$, and also shed light on its potential applications in optoelectronic and spintronic devices.

description: Formal verification of neural networks is critical for their safe adoption in real-world applications. However, designing a precise and scalable verifier which can handle different activation functions, realistic network architectures and relevant specifications remains an open and difficult challenge. In this paper, we take a major step forward in addressing this challenge and present a new verification framework, called PRIMA. PRIMA is both (i) general: it handles any non-linear activation function, and (ii) precise: it computes precise convex abstractions involving multiple neurons via novel convex hull approximation algorithms that leverage concepts from computational geometry. The algorithms have polynomial complexity, yield fewer constraints, and minimize precision loss. We evaluate the effectiveness of PRIMA on a variety of challenging tasks from prior work. Our results show that PRIMA is significantly more precise than the state-of-the-art, verifying robustness to input perturbations for up to 20%, 30%, and 34% more images than existing work on ReLU-, Sigmoid-, and Tanh-based networks, respectively. Further, PRIMA enables, for the first time, the precise verification of a realistic neural network for autonomous driving within a few minutes.

description: Subgenus Xerodelphys Giarla et al., 2010
 TYPE SPECIES: Thylamys karimii (Petter, 1968), by original designation.
SYNONYMS: None.
 REMARKS: Although the monophyly of Xerodelphys has been consistently supported by phylogenetic analyses of multilocus sequence datasets (e.g., Giarla et al., 2010; Díaz et al., 2016a; Amador and Giannini, 2016), nodal support for this clade is seldom strong. However, compelling evidence for subgeneric monophyly is provided by the unusual caudal and manual morphologies illustrated by Carmignotto and Monfort (2006). Two species are currently recognized as valid.
