Second-order, two-electron Dyson propagator theory: Comparisons for vertical double ionization potentials
Creators: name: Ida, T.
name: Ortiz, J.V.
Publisher: name: AIP Publishing
Year: 2021

description: The second-order, two-electron Dyson propagator is derived using superoperator theory with a spin-adapted formulation. To include certain ladder diagrams to all orders, the shifted-denominator SD2 approximation is made. Formal and computational comparisons with other approximations illustrate the advantages of the SD2 procedure. Vertical double ionization potentials DIPs for a set of closed-shell molecules are evaluated with the second-order propagator and the SD2 method. The results of the SD2 approximation are in good agreement with experiment. To systematically examine the quality of the results, we compared SD2 and equation-of-motion, coupled-cluster predictions. The average absolute discrepancy is 0.26 eV for 36 doubly ionized states.

Solid angles in perspective

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Physics Education (physics.ed-ph)

description: The specialised uses of solid angles mean that they are quite unfamiliar quantities. This article, apart from making solid angles a little more familiar, brings out several topics of general interest, such as how units are interrelated and how equations depend on the choice of units. Although the steradian is commonly used as the unit for solid angle, another unit, the square degree, is used in astronomy, and a unit introduced here, the solid degree (with 360 solid degrees in a hemisphere) could be used with benefits that are similar to those of the degree when it is used as the unit for plane angle. The article, which is suitable for students at A-level and introductory undergraduate level, also shows how solid angles can provide a gentle introduction to crystal structure, spherical trigonometry and non-Euclidean geometry.
Reperformance, Reenactment, Simulation

description: The conservation of performance art has become a pressing issue as museums increasingly commission, exhibit, and even collect works of performance art. While documentation might give us a schematic understanding of the original performance and its circumstances, and “reperformance” claims to reproduce the original live experience, neither of these can tell us what it was like to really be there, back then. Uniting curatorial and conservation methodologies, this paper proposes simulation as a tool for “mimetically documenting” the historical context and experience of performance works. Focusing on works by Marina Abramović and their representations in popular media, this article assesses historical reenactment, film and television, and ultimately video games as forms of simulation, arguing that these effectively transmit aspects of performance works that are otherwise difficult or impossible to conserve.

This text is also shown in the NHMUK online bird types catalogue https://www. nhm.ac.uk/research-curation/scientific-resources/collections/zoological-collections/typespecimens-of-birds/index.html (accessed 1 December 2022). However, treatment of the two specimens 1955.6.N.20.423 and 424 as holotype and paratype, respectively, rather than as syntypes appears unjustified. In the original description, although Gurney described what he referred to as an ‘adult female’ (now NHMUK 1955.6.N.20.423) first and in greater detail, his remarks on ‘the second and apparently less adult specimen’ (now NHMUK 1955.6.N.20.424) follow directly on and are perfectly adequate, stressing its overall similarity to the first while flagging relatively minor points of difference in crest development, colour and markings (Gould 1863). Here and subsequently (e.g., Gurney 1877), he appears to have been in no doubt in presenting both equally as exemplars of his new taxon.

description: Adiabatic following has been an widely-employed technique for achieving near-complete population transfer in a `two-level' quantum mechanical system. The theoretical basis, however, could be generalized to a broad class of systems exhibiting SU(2) symmetry. In the present work, we present an analogy of population transfer dynamics of two level atomic system with that of light propagation in a classical `one-dimensional' photonic crystal, commonly known as distributed-Bragg-reflector (DBR). This formalism facilitates in adapting the idea of adiabatic following, more precisely the rapid adiabatic passage (RAP) which is usually encountered in a broad class of quantum-mechanical systems. We present a chirped DBR configuration in which the adiabatic constraints are satisfied by virtue of optimally chirping the DBR. The reflection spectrum of the configuration exhibit broadening of photonic bandgap (PBG) in addition to a varying degree of suppression of sharp reflection peaks in the transmission band. The intermodal coupling between counter-propagating modes as well as their phase-mismatch, for the DBR configuration, exhibits a longitudinal variation which is usually observed in `Allen-Eberly' scheme of adiabatic population transfer in two-level atomic systems.

Publisher: name: AIP Publishing
Year: 2021

description: An efficient method for the analytic evaluation of Fukui functions is proposed. Working equations are derived and numerical results are used to validate the method on medium size set of molecules. In addition to the obvious advantages of analytic differentiation, the proposed method is efficient enough to be considered a practical alternative to the finite difference formulation used routinely. The reliability of the approximations used here is demonstrated and discussed. Problems found in other methods for prediction of electrophilic centers are corrected automatically when using the new method.

description: Electron affinities, vertical electron detachment energies, and isomerization energies of 4-thiouracil, 2-thiouracil, and 2,4-dithiouracil and their valence anions have been calculated with ab initio electron propagator and other many-body methods. Anions in which protons have been transferred to the C5 from the N1 or N3 ring positions have been considered, but the canonical forms are most stable for the 4-thiouracil and 2,4-dithiouracil anions. Electron affinities of 0.61, 0.26, and 0.87 eV have been determined for 4-thiouracil, 2-thiouracil, and 2,4-dithiouracil, respectively. Electron propagator calculations on the canonical anions yield vertical electron detachment energies that are in close agreement with experimental peaks at 1.05, 3.21, and 3.32 eV for 4-thiouracil and at 1.4 eV for 2,4-dithiouracil.

description: The highest recorded rates of recreational SCUBA diving occur on coral reefs at Eilat in the northern Red Sea, where many scleractinian corals are damaged by physical contact with divers. We compared coral skeletal growth and damage at sites that were protected vs unprotected from diving tourism, and identified tissue mortality through monthly monitoring of the branching stony coral Acropora hemprichii (Ehrenberg, 1834). We also monitored several genera of branching stony corals at sites that varied in levels of recreational diving. Major causes of tissue mortality in A. hemprichii were unknown (possibly bleaching and disease) and predation by the corallivorous snail Drupella cornus (Röding, 1798), both of which were much more frequent at heavily-dived than at undived sites. High frequencies of coral damage led to significantly slower coral growth at heavily-dived than undived sites. Annual rates of damage to branching corals were approximately twice as high at a site open to divers than at a closed site, and were intermediate at a site with restricted diving. The proportions of colonies infested by D. cornus increased significantly during the study year at sites open to divers but not at closed and restricted sites. We conclude that frequent mechanical injury by divers to coral colonies leads to enhanced susceptibility to predation and possibly to coral disease. Current levels of recreational diving at Eilat severely compromise the growth and survival of major reef-building corals, not only via direct mechanical damage, but also through a positive feedback loop of indirect effects on coral predators.

description: A study was undertaken to compare the anatomy of the laminar floral parts with that of the spathes and leaves of Commelina erecta L. Each flower has two types of petals and two types of sepals. In contrast to the other organs, the petals have a completely open venation system whose vein endings consist solely of modified bundle-sheath cells. Bundle sheaths of leaves and spathes, but not the floral organs, contain sclerified cells for support. The high density of hook-shaped trichomes on the outer surface of the spathe and of glandular microhairs on the inner surface might indicate protective and secretory functions, respectively. Anomalous stomatal apparatuses are more common on floral organs than on spathes or leaves. Leaves and spathes appear to have a more detailed developmental program than sepals and petals.
A novel method for robust and efficient prediction of ice shedding from rotorcraft blades

description: The safety of rotorcraft operating in cold environments is jeopardised by the possibility of ice accretion on the rotor blades. Eventually, ice can shed from the blade due to the high centrifugal forces and impact other parts of the rotorcraft or unbalance the rotor. To establish the shedding time and location for rotorcraft, a robust and efficent numerical multi-step icing simulations tool is presented here for predicting the shedding phenomenon. A volume-mesh based approach is used to allow for representing the ice shape. In order to increase the robustness of the method, an interpolation procedure is implemented which establishes the possible occurrence of the shedding event and restricts the search domain. Ice shapes along the blades are computed by means of two-dimensional ice accretion simulations: ice shapes are then interpolated over the blade span. Numerical results compares fairly well, in terms of shedding time and location, to the experimental ones obtained in the AERTS test facility, thus demonstrating the soundness of the present approach.

The Female Nude in Anti-Zia Feminist Painting

Year: 2023

description: After the 1977 coup that launched General Zia-ul-Haq’s decade-long military dictatorship in Pakistan, visual arts flourished as part of many progressive movements. This essay on anti-Zia visual art explores the intersection of art and left politics. While left mobilization against the Zia dictatorship took several forms, one under-emphasized but significant node of opposition was led by artists and poets. Especially underrepresented among these movements were the indelible contributions of female artists who were among the state’s most persecuted. Though the Hudood Ordinances and other anti-women policies did not explicitly target artists, they effectively marginalized women from the arts by way of curbs on women’s mobility and freedom of expression in society at large. Female artists resisted, refusing to take up calligraphy or otherwise change their artistic style. Depictions of the female nude became an important political symbol for artists pushing back against the censorship of, violence against, and persecution of women. Pakistani feminist artists’ forms of cultural resistance through art creation have a long tradition in both South Asia and the Global South more broadly, but the female nude as the content of their resistance art warrants deeper investigation. In this essay, I recover the history of Pakistani women’s resistance through the visual arts then leverage this to weigh in on contemporary theoretical debates on the depiction of the nude female body as feminist praxis. The goal of this contribution is to record Pakistani women’s resistance during the Zia period so that feminist theory may learn from their actions.

description: The tunneling approach beyond semiclassical approximation has been used to calculate the corrected Hawking temperature and entropy for various black holes and FRW universe model. We examine their derivations, and prove that the quantity $H$ in the corrected temperature is the explicit function of the only free parameter $\mathcal{A}$ (which is an auxiliary parameter defined by $\mathcal{A}=\hbar S_{BH}$). Our analysis improves previous calculations, and indicates that the leading order logarithmic correction to entropy is a natural result of the corrected temperature and the first law of thermodynamics. Additionally, we apply the tunneling approach beyond semiclassical approximation to neutral black rings. Based on the analysis, we show that the entropy of neutral black rings also has a logarithmic leading order correction.

Ecologies of Blue Paper

description: This article examines blue paper as an ecological solution in drawing practice by investigating the questions of when and under which circumstances German artists in the early sixteenth century decided to use blue paper. Blue paper had several aesthetic, symbolic, and economic functions, often both referencing a geographic relationship to Italy and its tradition of drawing on blue paper, and also engaging in a world of play and imitation in workshop practices. For a better understanding of the early modern paper ecologies within which artists worked, it is necessary to regard paper production within a broader socio-cultural range, thus not only as an exchange between paper makers but also with consideration of other crafts as well as the impact of new technologies. From there we can reconsider our relationship to nature.

Interpretation of the photoelectron spectra of superalkali species: Li3O and Li3O-

Publisher: name: American Institute of Physics
Year: 2020

description: The present paper deals with the interpretation of the photoelectron spectrum of the Li3O-. After several failed attempts to attribute all of the observed peaks in the experimental spectrum to anionic species, neutral species were considered assuming a sequential two-photon absorption mechanism. We find that only two of the six observed peaks can be attributed to photodetachments and that all other observed features can be assigned to ionizations from the ground and excited states of the neutral. Nuclear distributions other than three lithium atoms surrounding the oxygen are not likely to be stable. The interpretation of the experimental peak located at about 1.2 eV remains challenging. It can either be attributed to the second electron detachment (involving the HOMO -1 orbital) energy from the anion's triplet C-2v state or to higher excited states (involving HOMO + 10, 11, 12 ... orbitals) of the neutral species. Furthermore, we have examined the influence of vibrational displacements on the location of the observed peaks. We find that this effect is smaller than 0.05 eV and, therefore, must be considered as negligible. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3636082]

Food habits and nutritional status of East Indian Hindu children in British Columbia
Creators: name: Pi, Clara Ming Lee
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A cross-sectional study was carried out to assess the nutritional stutus of a sample of East Indian children in the Vancouver area. The study sample consisted of 132 children from 3 months to 18 years of age, whose parents belonged to the congregation of the Vishwa Hindu Parished Temple in Burnaby, B.C. In the dietary assessment of nutritional status, a 24-hour diet recall and a food habits questionnaire were employed on the 132 children. The Canadian Dietary Standard (revised 1975) and Nutrition Canada categories were used for an evaluation of their dietary intake. In the anthropometric assessment of their nutritional status, the standing height, weight, arm circumference, triceps skinfold, and head circumference of 127 children were measured according to the recommendation of. the International Biological Program (Weiner and Lourie, 1969). Individual findings were plotted as scatter diagrams against both East India and American standard reference curves. Methods used in the biochemical assessment of nutritional status were mostly those described in the Interdepartmental Committee on Nutrition for National Defence (ICNND) Manual for Nutrition Surveys (1963). Hemoglobin, hematocrit, plasma levels of vitamin C, vitamin A, carotene, vitamin E, iron and iron binding capacity were determined in the blood of 51 children. Results were evaluated according to the categories defined by Nutrition Canada (1973). Anthropometric results indicated satisfactory growth, with the male subjects performing better than the female subjects. Both the dietary and biochemical results did not indicate gross deficiencies. However, intakes of certain nutrients such as the B vitamins, iron and calcium were low. Recommendations were made to the parents on how to improve nutrient intake for such children.

description: We present the first measurement of the metallicity gradient in extremely metal-poor galaxies (EMPGs). With Subaru/Faint Object Camera And Spectrograph (FOCAS) Integral Field Unit (IFU), we have observed a nearby, low-mass EMPG, HSC J1631+4426, whose oxygen abundance and stellar mass are known to be 12+log(O/H) $=6.9$ and $\log_{10}(M_*/{\rm M}_\odot)=5.8$, respectively. The measured metallicity gradient is $-0.36 \pm 0.04$ dex kpc$^{-1}$ corresponding to $-0.049 \pm 0.006$ dex R$_\mathrm{e}^{-1}$ for the continuum effective radius of $R_\mathrm{e} = 0.14$ kpc. Our observation has successfully demonstrated that three-dimensional spectroscopy with 8m-class telescopes is powerful enough to reveal the metallicity distribution in local EMPGs, providing precious information of the baryon cycle in local analogs of primordial galaxies in the early Universe.

description: This publication-based dissertation examines the fundamental political changes induced by the rise of digital technologies across various dimensions. In four core chapters, comprising individual research articles—some of which have already been published—the dissertation explores: (I) the political-economic dynamics underlying digital technologies that facilitate and encourage certain illiberal and authoritarian practices; (II) the political-economic dynamics of privately developed spyware and the corresponding patterns of public acquisition; (III) the transformations of authoritarian rule itself; and (IV) the transformations of democratic information environments that ultimately foster democratic decay. The major findings highlight the detrimental effects of digital technologies on democratic liberties, primarily driven and perpetuated by the business logic underlying the production and dissemination of these innovations.
title: Linguistic Idealism and the Disjunctive Approach to the Problem of False Propositions
Creators: name: Brown, Thomas
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2024

description: This thesis addresses a metaphysical problem concerning false propositions. It does this, first, analytically in identifying the problem and diagnosing its cause and, second, exploratorily in proposing ways in which the problem might be solved. 

After first introducing the nature of the problem and the theoretical context in which the proposed solutions will be developed, the thesis traces the history of the particular problem in the theories of Bertrand Russell and Ludwig Wittgenstein, articulating the nature of the problem as felt by those theories. The problem of false propositions with which this thesis is concerned emerges as a cluster of questions regarding the metaphysical nature of false propositions which affects theories that identify propositions with states of affairs. The thesis argues that the problem remains a live concern for the theory of linguistic idealism, as defended by Richard Gaskin, because the theory endorses this identification. 

The thesis proceeds to diagnose the general cause of the problem in the claim that true and false propositions must be treated uniformly, before then proposing a disjunctive approach to propositions that treats true and false propositions differently and is, thereby, able to respond to the problem of false propositions. This disjunctive approach to propositions is modelled on disjunctive theories in the philosophy of perception, and the thesis draws an analogy between the problem of false propositions and the problem of non-veridical perceptual experience as faced by the naïve realist in the philosophy of perception. 

This thesis then explores two distinct ways in which the linguistic idealist might solve the problem of false propositions by modifying Gaskin’s account and adopting a disjunctive approach to propositions. The first theory, a ‘sense without reference’ theory of falsity, aims to solve the problem by denying the existence of false propositions. The second theory, an ‘ontological dependence’ theory of false propositions, aims to solve the problem by explicating a relation of asymmetric dependence between true and false propositions. The thesis concludes with an evaluation of the two theories, and an evaluation of the prospects of a more widespread adoption of a disjunctive approach to propositions.

description: The high stellar density in the central parsecs around the Galactic Centre makes it a seemingly favourable environment for finding relativistic binary pulsars. These include pulsars orbiting other neutron stars, stellar-mass black holes or the central supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*. Here we present multi-epoch pulsar searches of the Galactic Centre at four observing frequencies, (4.85, 8.35, 14.6 18.95) GHz, using the Effelsberg 100-m radio telescope. Observations were conducted one year prior to the discovery of, and during monitoring observations of, the Galactic Centre magnetar PSR J1745-2900. Our data analysis features acceleration searches on progressively shorter time series to maintain sensitivity to relativistic binary pulsars. The multi-epoch observations increase the likelihood of discovering transient or nulling pulsars, or ensure orbital phases are observed at which acceleration search methods work optimally. In ~147 h of separate observations, no previously undiscovered pulsars have been detected. Through calibration observations, we conclude this might be due to insufficient instantaneous sensitivity; caused by the intense continuum emission from the Galactic Centre, its large distance and, at higher frequencies, the aggregate effect of steep pulsar spectral indices and atmospheric contributions to the system temperature. Additionally we find that for millisecond pulsars in wide circular orbits ~<800 d around Sagittarius A*, linear acceleration effects cannot be corrected in deep observations (9 h) with existing software tools. Pulsar searches of the Galactic Centre with the next generation of radio telescopes - such as MeerKat, ngVLA and SKA1-mid - will have improved chances of uncovering this elusive population.

description: We study an SAIRS-type epidemic model with vaccination, where the role of asymptomatic and symptomatic infectious individuals are explicitly considered in the transmission patterns of the disease. We provide a global stability analysis for the model. We determine the value of the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_0$ and prove that the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if $\mathcal{R}_0<1$ and unstable if $\mathcal{R}_0>1$, condition under which a positive endemic equilibrium exists. We investigate the global stability of the endemic equilibrium for some variations of the original model under study and answer to an open problem proposed in Ansumali et al. \cite{ansumali2020modelling}. In the case of the SAIRS model without vaccination, we prove the global asymptotic stability of the disease-free equilibrium also when $\mathcal{R}_0=1$. We provide a thorough numerical exploration of our model, to validate our analytical results.

description: While Reinforcement Learning has made great strides towards solving ever more complicated tasks, many algorithms are still brittle to even slight changes in their environment. This is a limiting factor for real-world applications of RL. Although the research community continuously aims at improving both robustness and generalization of RL algorithms, unfortunately it still lacks an open-source set of well-defined benchmark problems based on a consistent theoretical framework, which allows comparing different approaches in a fair, reliable and reproducibleway. To fill this gap, we propose CARL, a collection of well-known RL environments extended to contextual RL problems to study generalization. We show the urgent need of such benchmarks by demonstrating that even simple toy environments become challenging for commonly used approaches if different contextual instances of this task have to be considered. Furthermore, CARL allows us to provide first evidence that disentangling representation learning of the states from the policy learning with the context facilitates better generalization. By providing variations of diverse benchmarks from classic control, physical simulations, games and a real-world application of RNA design, CARL will allow the community to derive many more such insights on a solid empirical foundation.

description: We present a compact and transportable inertial sensor for precision sensing of rotations and accelerations. The sensor consists of a dual Mach-Zehnder-type atom interferometer operated with laser-cooled $^{87}$Rb. Raman processes are employed to coherently manipulate the matter waves. We describe and characterize the experimental apparatus. A method for passing from a compact geometry to an extended interferometer with three independent atom-light interaction zones is proposed and investigated. The extended geometry will enhance the sensitivity by more than two orders of magnitude which is necessary to achieve sensitivities better than $10^{-8} $rad/s/$\sqrt{\rm Hz}$.

description: We present the design and lab performance of a prototype lenslet-slicer hybrid integral field spectrograph (IFS), validating the concept for use in future instruments like SCALES/PSI-Red. By imaging extrasolar planets with IFS, it is possible to measure their chemical compositions, temperatures and masses. Many exoplanet-focused instruments use a lenslet IFS to make datacubes with spatial and spectral information used to extract spectral information of imaged exoplanets. Lenslet IFS architecture results in very short spectra and thus low spectral resolution. Slicer IFSs can obtain higher spectral resolution but at the cost of increased optical aberrations that propagate through the down-stream spectrograph and degrade the spatial information we can extract. We have designed a lenslet/slicer hybrid that combines the minimal aberrations of the lenslet IFS with the high spectral resolution of the slicer IFS. The slicer output f/\# matches the lenslet f/\# requiring only additional gratings.

New deep XMM-Newton observations to the west of the sigma Orionis cluster

description: Aims: The objective of this study is to determine the general X-ray properties of the young stars in the external regions of the sigma Orionis cluster (tau ~ 3 Ma, d ~ 385 pc) and yield constraints on the X-ray emission of brown dwarfs. Methods: We carried out a careful analysis of public data taken in an unexplored region to the west of the centre of the cluster with the three EPIC cameras onboard the XMM-Newton mission. We looked for new X-ray young stars among the 41 identified X-ray sources in the area with maximum likelihood parameters L > 15 by cross-correlation with the USNO-B1, DENIS, and 2MASS databases. Results: Based on colour-colour, colour-magnitude, and hardness ratio diagrams, and previous spectroscopic, astrometric, and infrared-flux excess information, we classified the optical/near-infrared counterparts of the X-ray sources into: young stars (15), field stars (4), galaxies (19), and sources of unknown nature (3). Most of the X-ray detections, including those of nine young stars, are new. We derived the X-ray properties (e.g. temperatures, metallicities, column densities) of the twelve young stars with the largest signal-to-noise ratios. The X-ray parameters determined here are in well agreement with those found in the cluster centre, where the stellar density is higher. There is no relation between infrared excess and column density from X-ray measurement in our data. We detected flaring events in two young stars of the sample. One of them showed a very large (~ 30) relative increase in flux. Both stars showed high coronal temperatures during the observation. Finally, we determined upper limits to the flux of the young stars and bright brown dwarfs not detected by our searching algorithm.

Stabilization of crossflow instability with plasma actuators: Linearized Navier-Stokes simulations

description: This paper describes work carried out within the European Union (EU)-Russia Buterfli project to look at the control of transition-causing "target" stationary cross flow vortices, by the use of distributed plasma actuation to generate sub-dominant "killer" modes. The objective is to use the "killer" modes to control the "target" modes through a non-linear stabilizing mechanism. The numerical modelling and results are compared to experimental studies performed at the TsAGI T124 tunnel for a swept plate subject to a favorable pressure gradient flow. A mathematical model for the actuator developed at TsAGI was implemented in a linearized Navier Stokes (LNS) solver and used to model and hence predict "killer" mode amplitudes at a measurement plane in the experiment. The LNS analysis shows good agreement with experiment, and the results are used as input for non-linear PSE analysis to predict the effect of these modes on crossflow transition. Whilst the numerical model indicates a delay in transition, experimental results indicated an advance in transition rather than delay. This was determined to be due to actuator induced unsteadiness arising in the experiment, resulting in the generation of travelling crossflow disturbances which tended to obscure and thus dominate the plasma stabilized stationary disturbances.

description: We study cosmological constraints on the various accelerating models of the universe using the time evolution of the cosmological redshift of distant sources. The important characteristic of this test is that it directly probes the expansion history of the universe. In this work we analyze the various models of the universe which can explain the late time acceleration, within the framework of General Theory of Relativity (GR) (XCDM, scalar field potentials) and beyond GR (f(R) gravity model).

description: Quantitative estimation of the acute ischemic infarct is crucial to improve neurological outcomes of the patients with stroke symptoms. Since the density of lesions is subtle and can be confounded by normal physiologic changes, anatomical asymmetry provides useful information to differentiate the ischemic and healthy brain tissue. In this paper, we propose a symmetry enhanced attention network (SEAN) for acute ischemic infarct segmentation. Our proposed network automatically transforms an input CT image into the standard space where the brain tissue is bilaterally symmetric. The transformed image is further processed by a Ushape network integrated with the proposed symmetry enhanced attention for pixel-wise labelling. The symmetry enhanced attention can efficiently capture context information from the opposite side of the image by estimating long-range dependencies. Experimental results show that the proposed SEAN outperforms some symmetry-based state-of-the-art methods in terms of both dice coefficient and infarct localization.

description: Fremtidens Dagtilbud er et udviklingsprogram, som er blevet udviklet og afprøvet i dagtilbud for 0-6-årige børn i perioden 2014-2016. Udviklingsprogrammet blev igangsat af Børne- og Socialministeriet med det formål at udvikle og afprøve indsatser og redskaber i den pædagogiske praksis, der kan bidrage til at styrke børns trivsel, udvikling og læring. Programmet skal understøtte, at børnene møder passende udfordringer i inkluderende fællesskaber i dagtilbuddene og derigennem bidrage til at mindske betydningen af den negative sociale arv, så alle børn får det bedste springbræt til at klare sig i skolen og senere i livet. Sideløbende med at programmet er blevet afprøvet i dagtilbuddene, er der iværksat følgeforskning, som skal tilvejebringe solid viden om programmets pædagogiske indsatser.
