description: This paper presents a time-invariant network flow model capturing two-person ride-pooling that can be integrated within design and planning frameworks for Mobility-on-Demand systems. In these type of models, the arrival process of travel requests is described by a Poisson process, meaning that there is only statistical insight into request times, including the probability that two requests may be pooled together. Taking advantage of this feature, we devise a method to capture ride-pooling from a stochastic mesoscopic perspective. This way, we are able to transform the original set of requests into an equivalent set including pooled ones which can be integrated within standard network flow problems, which in turn can be efficiently solved with off-the-shelf LP solvers for a given ride-pooling request assignment. Thereby, to compute such an assignment, we devise a polynomial-time algorithm that is optimal w.r.t. an approximated version of the problem. Finally, we perform a case study of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, USA, where we quantify the effects that waiting time and experienced delay have on the vehicle-hours traveled. Our results suggest that the higher the demands per unit time, the lower the waiting time and delay experienced by users. In addition, for a sufficiently large number of demands per unit time, with a maximum waiting time and experienced delay of 5 minutes, more than 90% of the requests can be pooled.

description: We present a systematic formulation of scattering theory for nonlinear interactions in one dimension and develop a nonlinear generalization of the transfer matrix that has a composition property similar to its linear analog's. We offer alternative characterizations of spectral singularities, unidirectional reflectionlessness and invisibility, and nonreciprocal transmission for nonlinear scattering systems, and examine the application of our general results in addressing the scattering problem for nonlinear single- and double-$δ$-function potentials.

description: Water oxidation, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), is the anodic process in electrocatalytic production of hydrogen and further green fuels. Transition-metal oxyhydroxides with bulk-phase OER activity of the complete material or amorphized near-surface regions are of prime application interest, but their basic electrochemical properties are insufficiently understood. Here the timescale of functional processes is clarified by time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for a thickness-series of cobalt oxyhydroxides films (about 35–550 nm). At the outer material surface, an electric double-layer is formed in microseconds followed by clearly cobalt-centered redox-state changes of the bulk material in the low millisecond domain and a slow chemical step of O2-formation, within hundreds of milliseconds. Conceptually interesting, the electrode potential likely controls the OER rate indirectly by driving the catalyst material to an increasingly oxidized state which promotes the rate-limiting chemical step. Rate constants are derived for redox chemistry and catalysis from EIS data of low-thickness catalyst films; at higher thicknesses, catalyst-internal charge transport limitations become increasingly relevant. Relations between electrochemically active surface area, double-layer capacitance, and redox (pseudo-)capacitance are discussed. These results can increase the power of EIS analyses and support knowledge-guided optimization of a broader class of OER catalyst materials.

description: Synthetic and natural polymeric esters find applications in transport and construction sectors, where fire safety is an important concern. One polymer that is widely used is poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), which almost completely undergoes thermal decomposition into methyl methacrylate (its monomer) CH2=C(CH3)−C(=O)−O−CH3 (MMA) at ∼250–300∘C. In order to analyze the high-temperature gas-phase oxidation of PMMA, and thereby predict its fire behavior (such as burning rate, temperature of the material, and heat fluxes) with less computational effort, a compact kinetic model for the oxidation of its primary decomposition product, MMA, is most essential. This is accomplished in the present work by obtaining a reduced mechanism for MMA oxidation from a detailed mechanism from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories group. To extend the available data base for model validation and present validation data at atmospheric pressure conditions, for the first time, (i) detailed measurements of species profiles have been performed in stoichiometric laminar flat flames using flame sampling molecular beam mass spectrometry (MBMS) technique and (ii) laminar burning velocities have been obtained using the heat flux method for various unburnt mixture temperatures. Evaluating the model against these data sets point to the need to revise the kinetic model, which is achieved by adopting rate constants of key reactions among analogous molecules from recent literature. The updated compact kinetic model is able to predict the major species in the flat flame as well as the burning velocity of MMA satisfactorily. The final “short MMA mechanism” consists of 88 species and 1084 reactions.
Minority magnons and mode branching in monolayer Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$

description: We predict the presence of minority magnons in monolayer Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ using first principles calculations. Minority magnons constitute a new type of collective magnetic excitation which increase the magnetic moment -- contrary to ordinary (majority) magnons which lower it -- giving rise to spin-raising poles in the dynamic susceptibility $χ^{-+}(ω)$. The presence of such quasi-particles is made possible by the nontrivial ferromagnetic band structure of Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$. We calculate the susceptibility using time-dependent density functional theory and perform a detailed mode analysis, which allows us to identify and investigate individual magnon modes as well as the Stoner excitations that constitute the many-body spectrum. The analysis reveals a plethora of both majority and minority excitations, which in addition to the main magnon branches include both satellite, valley and spin-inversion magnons thanks to the electron itinerancy of the system. Crucially, the analysis allows us to separate peaks of a coherent collective nature from those of mixed magnon/Stoner nature. To this end, we predict that the lowest energy minority magnon mode of monolayer Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ indeed constitutes a coherent collective quasi-particle at long wavelengths and introduce a simplistic gaussian model for the observed minority magnon enhancement. The underlying physics is in no way restricted to Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$, and minority magnons are thus expected to be observable in other complex ferromagnetic materials as well.
description: In this second edition, the manuscript has been largely rewritten from a letter to an article format. We include a more in-depth discussion of the distinction between Stoner pair excitations and magnons and present also a new simplistic model for the minority magnon enhancement in Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$. 11 pages, 11 figures

description: Josephson tunnel junctions form the basis for various superconducting electronic devices. For this reason, enormous efforts are routinely taken to establish and later on maintain a scalable and reproducible wafer-scale manufacturing process for high-quality Josephson junctions. Here, we present an anodization-free fabrication process for Nb/Al-AlO$_x$/Nb cross-type Josephson junctions that requires only a small number of process steps and that is intrinsically compatible with wafer-scale fabrication. We show that the fabricated junctions are of very high-quality and, compared to other junction types, exhibit not only a significantly reduced capacitance but also an almost rectangular critical current density profile. Our process hence enables the usage of low capacitance Josephson junctions for superconducting electronic devices such as ultra-low noise dc-SQUIDs, microwave SQUID multiplexers based on non-hysteretic rf-SQUIDs and RFSQ circuits.

description: In some scenarios for the early universe, non-relativistic thermal dark matter chemically decouples from the thermal environment once the temperature drops well below the dark matter mass. The value at which the energy density freezes out depends on the underlying model. In a simple setting, we provide a comprehensive study of heavy fermionic dark matter interacting with the light degrees of freedom of a dark thermal sector whose temperature $T$ decreases from an initial value close to the freeze-out temperature. Different temperatures imply different hierarchies of energy scales. By exploiting the methods of non-relativistic effective field theories at finite $T$, we systematically determine the thermal and in-vacuum interaction rates. In particular, we address the impact of the Debye mass on the observables and ultimately on the dark matter relic abundance. We numerically compare the corrections to the present energy density originating from the resummation of Debye mass effects with the corrections coming from a next-to-leading order treatment of the bath-particle interactions. We observe that the fixed-order calculation of the inelastic heavy-light scattering at high temperatures provides a larger dark matter depletion, and hence an undersized yield for given benchmark points in the parameter space, with respect to the calculation where Debye mass effects are resummed.

We developed an ensemble system consisting of language models together with LSTM-based networks containing a CNN attention mechanism. Our approach represents a novel use of language models (specifically trained on a large Twitter dataset) to predict and classify emotions.

description: We show that the full global symmetry groups of all the D-dimensional maximal supergravities can be described in terms of the closure of the internal general coordinate transformations of the toroidal compactifications of D=11 supergravity and of type IIB supergravity, with type IIA/IIB T-duality providing an intertwining between the two pictures. At the quantum level, the part of the U-duality group that corresponds to the surviving discretised internal general coordinate transformations in a given picture leaves the internal torus invariant, while the part that is not described by internal general coordinate transformations can have the effect of altering the size or shape of the internal torus. For example, M-theory compactified on a large torus T^n can be related by duality to a compactification on a small torus, if and only if n\ge 3. We also discuss related issues in the toroidal compactification of the self-dual string to D=4. An appendix includes the complete results for the toroidal reduction of the bosonic sector of type IIB supergravity to arbitrary dimensions D\ge3.

On the Idea of a ‘Method’ in Moral Philosophy
Creators: name: Reichlin, Massimo
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2019

description: The paper discusses the two meanings that ‘method’ is often assumed to have in moral philosophy: the epistemic meaning, according to which a method is a procedure to reach moral knowledge, and the normative meaning, according to which it is a criterion of right and wrong in actions. The origin of these two, clearly connected meanings can be traced to Sidgwick’s work The Methods of Ethics. It is argued that Sidgwick’s seminal idea of a “reflective equilibrium” is a valuable and lasting contribution to the debate on moral epistemology; however, Sidgwick’s characterisation of the different normative options is biased against non consequentialist approaches by its concentration on “methods”, rather than on theories and “ultimate reasons”. This consequentialist bias still lingers in contemporary ethics.

What is the Phenomenological Approach? Revisiting Intentional Explication
Creators: name: Moran, Dermot
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2019

description: In this paper I outline the main features of the phenomenological approach, focusing on the central themes of intentionality, embodiment, empathy, intersubjectivity, sociality and the life-world. I argue that phenomenology is primarily a philosophy of intentional explication that identifies the a priori, structural correlations between subjectivity and all forms of constituted objectivities apprehended in their horizonal contexts. Intentional description reveals the structurally necessary, meaning-informing interactions between embodied subjectivity (already caught in the nexus of intersubjectivity) in the context of embeddedness in the temporal, historical, and cultural life-world. I shall defend phenomenology as a holistic approach that rightfully defends the role of subjectivity in the constitution of objectivity and recognizes the inherent limitations of all forms of naturalism, objectivism and scientism.

Two Ways of Understanding Persons: A Husserlian Distinction

description: This paper clarifies the distinction that Edmund Husserl makes between two different ways of understanding other persons, their actions and motivations: the experiential or empirical way, on the one hand, and the genuinely or authentically intuitive way, on the other hand. The paper argues that Husserl’s discussion of self-understanding clarifies his concept of the intuitive understanding of others and allows us to explicate what is involved in it: not just the grasping of the other’s actual motivations of action but also the grasping of her motivational possibilities. The paper ends by discussing the dynamic character of the personal subject.

The Paradox of Axiology. A Phenomenological Approach to Value Theory
Creators: name: De Monticelli, Roberta
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2019

description: Are values more than measures of our needs and desires or internalized social and cultural rules of behaviour, originating in cultures and devoid of any universally accessible objectivity? Is there a place for values in a world of facts? If so, how can values preserve their ideality and normativity? If not, how can value judgements be true or false? Max Scheler’s Material Axiology is the best answer Classical Phenomenology provides to this dilemma. Yet Material Axiology, in particular material ethics of values, is largely ignored or looked down upon for being based on unclear presuppositions. This paper tries to provide a fresh start by clarifying the bottom-up approach characteristic of phenomenology with an exercise in experimental phenomenology in which I will analyse the actual experience of certain aesthetic values in emotionally qualified perception.

description: This study investigates the impact of humidity on the corrosion behavior of an Fe–18Cr–12Ni alloy in environments containing KCl, as a deposit, and either laboratory air or SO 2 at 560°C for exposure times up to 330 h. Corrosion characteristics were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) with subsequent Rietveld analysis to quantify the obtained reaction products. Samples exposed to lab air and KCl showed half the weight gain in humid air than in dry atmospheres (0.80 ± 0.06 mg cm mg cm2 2 at 30.00% ± 0.07% relative humidity (r.H.) vs. 1.63 ± 0.01 mg cm mg cm2 2 at 1.58% ± 0.09% r.H.). The surface porosity, as determined by image analysis of SEM surface images, was lower for the samples exposed to humid air compared to dry air (5.5% ± 2.1% vs. 11.0% ± 2.2%, respectively). In a SO2 containing environment humidity decreased the scale thickness for deposit induced corrosion significantly by one order of magnitude, reflected by a low amount of oxide phases such as Cr O , Fe O2 3 2 3, and Fe O3 4. This study shows that humidity present in a hot gas containing other corrosive species, such as SO2 , can be beneficial for KCl deposit induced corrosion of stainless steels.
Ways to Be Concerned with Gender in Philosophy
Creators: name: Sbisà, Marina
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2019

description: In this paper, some (non-exhaustive) ways in which philosophy can tackle gender are presented and examined. Starting from mainly negative critical stances and proceeding towards more positive approaches, the following ways to tackle gender are distinguished: the critique of gender through discourse analysis; the critique of gender essentialism; research on how gender concepts work; reflection upon how gender issues relate to issues of intersubjective recognition. The first three ways, although giving important contributions about how gender is conceived of, do not seem to give firm grounds to the rejection of gender discrimination, the refutation of essentialist beliefs about the genders, and the neutralization of the normative import of gender concepts. As a fourth way, I propose considering gendered subjectivity in the context of the dynamics of intersubjective relations, framing it in a view of intersubjective recognition as a basic process in human life. In this perspective, gender issues constitute a context in which people’s capability and willingness to recognize others as subjects, and specifically human persons, is tested.

D-Branes at Singularities : A Bottom-Up Approach to the String Embedding of the Standard Model

description: We propose a bottom-up approach to the building of particle physics models from string theory. Our building blocks are Type II D-branes which we combine appropriately to reproduce desirable features of a particle theory model: 1) Chirality ; 2) Standard Model group ; 3) N=1 or N=0 supersymmetry ; 4) Three quark-lepton generations. We start such a program by studying configurations of D=10, Type IIB D3-branes located at singularities. We study in detail the case of Z_N, N=1,0 orbifold singularities leading to the SM group or some left-right symmetricextension. In general, tadpole cancellation conditions require the presence of additional branes, e.g. D7-branes. For the N=1 supersymmetric case the unique twist leading to three quark-lepton generations is Z_3, predicting $\sin^2θ_W=3/14=0.21$. The models obtained are the simplest semirealistic string models ever built. In the non-supersymmetric case there is a three-generation model for each Z_N, N>4, but the Weinberg angle is in general too small. One can obtain a large class of D=4 compact models by considering the above structure embedded into a Calabi Yau compactification. We explicitly construct examples of such compact models using Z_3 toroidal orbifolds and orientifolds, and discuss their properties. In these examples, global cancellation of RR charge may be achieved by adding anti-branes stuck at the fixed points, leading to models with hidden sector gravity-induced supersymmetry breaking. More general frameworks, like F-theory compactifications, allow completely $\NN=1$ supersymmetric embeddings of our local structures, as we show in an explicit example.

Filosofia del linguaggio femminista, atti linguistici e riduzione al silenzio
Creators: name: Caponetto, Laura
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2019

description: In anni recenti, la teoria degli atti linguistici di Austin è stata impiegata in ambito di filosofia del linguaggio femminista per dar corpo alla nozione di riduzione al silenzio, messa originariamente in campo da MacKinnon nel quadro del dibattito su pornografia e censura. L’idea, sostenuta da più voci, è che certi materiali pornografici contribuiscano a creare un clima comunicativo ostile alle donne, che impedisce loro di compiere certi atti illocutori – primo fra tutti, l’atto del rifiuto di avances sessuali. Nel presente lavoro, metto a confronto due declinazioni della nozione di riduzione al silenzio, offerte rispettivamente da Hornsby e Langton e da McGowan. Offro, inoltre, un’analisi inedita del rifiuto che inficia parzialmente la proposta di McGowan. L’obiettivo è quello di fornire uno spaccato di come la teoria austiniana possa essere adoperata, a mo’ di “cassetta degli attrezzi”, per portare alla luce forme di ingiustizia discorsiva passate largamente inosservate.

description: This article examines the social and political aspects of late nineteenth-century water management in Batavia (now Jakarta), the capital of the Netherlands Indies. Through a detailed analysis of how a mixture of old and new water technologies featured in the city’s public debates and decision-making, it argues that water infrastructure served as a key site of social control over the city’s diverse population. From the 1870s onwards, deep-bore artesian wells linked to public hydrants were introduced to provide a reliable and hygienic supply of clean water. This was a response to long-standing concerns over the city’s waste-blocked canals and their deleterious health effects. The article shows how these technologies came to be entwined with new, punitive social norms, enforced through both formal regulations on water use and informal complaints over wastefulness; moreover, these norms had a clear racial dimension, being directed primarily against the city’s Asian communities and repurposing long-standing stereotypes. Yet, beyond official discourses, a close reading of these debates shows that Batavia’s canals and hydrants also functioned as grassroots sites of negotiation, where different ideas – not just of water and land but of the very concept of public spaces and the colonial public sphere – met and occasionally clashed.

description: We employ the chiral nucleon-nucleon potential derived in ref.[1] to study bound and scattering states in the two-nucleon system. At next-to-leading order, this potential is the sum of renormalized one-pion and two-pion exchange and contact interactions. At next-to-next-to-leading order, we have additional chiral two-pion exchange with low-energy constants determined from pion-nucleon scattering. Alternatively, we consider the Δ(1232) as an explicit degree of freedom in the effective field theory. The nine parameters related to the contact interactions can be determined by a fit to the np S- and P-waves and the mixing parameter ε_1 for laboratory energies below 100 MeV. The predicted phase shifts and mixing parameters for higher energies and higher angular momenta are mostly well described for energies below 300 MeV. The S-waves are described as precisely as in modern phenomenological potentials. We find a good description of the deuteron properties.

Fuidge suggested, incorrectly, that John Hastings was the son of an illegitimate son of George, 1st Earl of Huntingdon. The key to solving the puzzle of his family connections is the inquisition which followed his death (in which his erstwhile ownership of the manor of Monewden, Suffolk, is recorded), together with his pardon in 1558 which links him to both Grimsthorpe and to Monewden, and his father’s grant of the keeping of Grimsthorpe in 1546. His grandfather’s grant of Monewden in 1477, a Roll of Arms, and various wills complete the picture.

description: In this paper we discuss two aspects of duality transformations on the Neveu-Schwarz (NS) 5-brane solutions in type II and heterotic string theories. First we demonstrate that the non-extremal NS 5-brane background is U-dual to its CGHS limit, a two-dimensional black hole times $S^3\times T^5$; an intermediate step is provided by the near horizon geometry which is given by the three-dimensional $BTZ_3$ black hole (being closely related to $AdS_3$) times $S^3\times T^4$. In the second part of the paper we discuss the T-duality between $k$ NS 5-branes and the Taub-NUT spaces respectively ALE spaces, which are related to the resolution of the $A_{k-1}$ singularities of the non-compact orbifold ${\bf C}^2/{\bf Z}_{k}$. In particular in the framework of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories related to brane box constructions we give the metric dual to two sets of intersecting NS 5-branes. In this way we get a picture of a dual orbifold background ${\bf C}^3/ Γ$ which is fibered together out of two N=2 models ($Γ={\bf Z}_k\times {\bf Z}_{k'}$). Finally we also discuss the intersection of NS 5-branes with D branes, which can serve as probes of the dual background spaces.

description: CM-type projective varieties X of complex dimension n are characterized by their CM-type rational Hodge structures on the cohomology groups. One may impose such a condition in a weakest form when the canonical bundle of X is trivial; the rational Hodge structure on the level-n subspace of $H^n(X;Q)$ is required to be of CM-type. This brief note addresses the question whether this weak condition implies that the Hodge structure on the entire $H^\ast(X;Q)$ is of CM-type. We study in particular abelian varieties when the dimension of the level-n subspace is two or four, and K3 $\times T^2$. It turns out that the answer is affirmative. Moreover, such an abelian variety is always isogenous to a product of CM-type elliptic curves or abelian surfaces. This extends a result of Shioda and Mitani in 1974.

God, Eternal Truths and the Rationality of the World in Descartes
Creators: name: Menezes Rocha, Ethel
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2019

description: In this paper I examine Descartes’s thesis of the free creation of eternal truths in conjunction with what he claims to be the divine attributes known by us. Considering the Cartesian claims of God’s simplicity and that eternal truths freely created by God include logical principles as the structure of finite minds, I argue that the Cartesian thesis of the free creation of eternal truths involves: a) God necessarily establishes (and thus creates) within/as himself all essences and truths, including those that to the finite intellect seem impossible; b) While establishing essences and truths, God instantiates (and thus creates) some of what to the finite intellect seems to be non-contradictory essences and truths as innate ideas in actual finite minds, and instantiates at least some of what seems to be non-contradictory essences and truths in the actual physical world and c) While establishing essences and truths, God may have instantiated in the actual world many (or all) of the essences and truths that the finite mind perceives to be contradictory, that is, those whose existence cannot be clearly and distinctly conceived by the finite mind and seem, therefore, impossible.

description: The combination of electronic health records (EHR) and medical images is crucial for clinicians in making diagnoses and forecasting prognosis. Strategically fusing these two data modalities has great potential to improve the accuracy of machine learning models in clinical prediction tasks. However, the asynchronous and complementary nature of EHR and medical images presents unique challenges. Missing modalities due to clinical and administrative factors are inevitable in practice, and the significance of each data modality varies depending on the patient and the prediction target, resulting in inconsistent predictions and suboptimal model performance. To address these challenges, we propose DrFuse to achieve effective clinical multi-modal fusion. It tackles the missing modality issue by disentangling the features shared across modalities and those unique within each modality. Furthermore, we address the modal inconsistency issue via a disease-wise attention layer that produces the patient- and disease-wise weighting for each modality to make the final prediction. We validate the proposed method using real-world large-scale datasets, MIMIC-IV and MIMIC-CXR. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art models. Our implementation is publicly available at https://github.com/dorothy-yao/drfuse.

description: An extensive program for the calculation of galactic cosmic-ray propagation has been developed. Primary and secondary nucleons, primary and secondary electrons, and secondary positrons are included. The basic spatial propagation mechanisms are (momentum-dependent) diffusion, convection, while in momentum space energy loss and diffusive reacceleration are treated. Fragmentation and energy losses are computed using realistic distributions for the interstellar gas and radiation fields. Predictions of the diffuse Galactic gamma ray and synchrotron emission are made. Our new estimate of the cosmic-ray positron spectrum is compared with the latest experimental data.

description: We report investigation of near-resonance light scattering from a cold and dense atomic gas of $^{87}$Rb atoms. Measurements are made for probe frequencies tuned near the $F=2\to F'=3$ nearly closed hyperfine transition, with particular attention paid to the dependence of the scattered light intensity on detuning from resonance, the number of atoms in the sample, and atomic sample size. We find that, over a wide range of experimental variables, the optical depth of the atomic sample serves as an effective single scaling parameter which describes well all the experimental data.

description: We report the results on Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) based on an updated code, with accuracy of the order of 0.1% on He4 abundance, compared with the predictions of other recent similar analysis. We discuss the compatibility of the theoretical results, for vanishing neutrino chemical potentials, with the observational data. Bounds on the number of relativistic neutrinos and baryon abundance are obtained by a likelihood analysis. We also analyze the effect of large neutrino chemical potentials on primordial nucleosynthesis, motivated by the recent results on the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation spectrum. The BBN exclusion plots for electron neutrino chemical potential and the effective number of relativistic neutrinos are reported. We find that the standard BBN seems to be only marginally in agreement with the recent BOOMERANG and MAXIMA-1 results, while the agreement is much better for degenerate BBN scenarios for large effective number of neutrinos, N_ν\sim 10.

description: We construct equivariant vector bundles over quantum projective spaces making use of parabolic Verma modules over the quantum general linear group. Using an alternative realization of the quantized coordinate ring of projective space as a subalgebra in the algebra of functions on the quantum group, we reformulate quantum vector bundles in terms of quantum symmetric pairs. In this way, we prove complete reducibility of modules over the corresponding coideal stabilizer subalgebras, via the quantum Frobenius reciprocity.

Nonparametric Density Flows for MRI Intensity Normalisation

description: With the adoption of powerful machine learning methods in medical image analysis, it is becoming increasingly desirable to aggregate data that is acquired across multiple sites. However, the underlying assumption of many analysis techniques that corresponding tissues have consistent intensities in all images is often violated in multi-centre databases. We introduce a novel intensity normalisation scheme based on density matching, wherein the histograms are modelled as Dirichlet process Gaussian mixtures. The source mixture model is transformed to minimise its $L^2$ divergence towards a target model, then the voxel intensities are transported through a mass-conserving flow to maintain agreement with the moving density. In a multi-centre study with brain MRI data, we show that the proposed technique produces excellent correspondence between the matched densities and histograms. We further demonstrate that our method makes tissue intensity statistics substantially more compatible between images than a baseline affine transformation and is comparable to state-of-the-art while providing considerably smoother transformations. Finally, we validate that nonlinear intensity normalisation is a step toward effective imaging data harmonisation.
