description: Computational paralinguistic analysis is increasingly being used in a wide range of cyber applications, including security-sensitive applications such as speaker verification, deceptive speech detection, and medical diagnostics. While state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, such as deep neural networks, can provide robust and accurate speech analysis, they are susceptible to adversarial attacks. In this work, we propose an end-to-end scheme to generate adversarial examples for computational paralinguistic applications by perturbing directly the raw waveform of an audio recording rather than specific acoustic features. Our experiments show that the proposed adversarial perturbation can lead to a significant performance drop of state-of-the-art deep neural networks, while only minimally impairing the audio quality.

description: Emulsions are widely used in many industrial applications, and the development of efficient techniques for synthesizing them is a subject of ongoing research. Vapor condensation is a promising method for energy-efficient, high-throughput production of monodisperse nanoscale emulsions. However, previous studies using this technique are limited to producing small volumes of water-in-oil dispersions. In this work, a new method for the continuous synthesis of nanoscale emulsions (water-in-oil and oil-in-water) is presented by condensing vapor on free-flowing surfactant solutions. The viability of oil vaporization and condensation is demonstrated under mild heating/cooling using diverse esters, terpenes, aromatic hydrocarbons, and alkanes. By systematically investigating water vapor and oil vapor condensation dynamics on bulk liquid-surfactant solutions, a rich diversity of outcomes, including floating films, nanoscale drops, and hexagonally packed microdrops is uncovered. It is demonstrated that surfactant concentration impacts oil spreading, self-emulsification, and such behavior can aid in the emulsification of condensed oil drops. This work represents a critical step toward advancing the vapor condensation method's applications for emulsions and colloidal systems, with broad implications for various fields and the development of new emulsion-based products and industrial processes.

description: Estetrol (E4) represents a novel estrogen of interest to relieve vasomotor symptoms. E4 activates the nuclear estrogen receptor α (ERα) but antagonizes the estradiol ERα-dependent membrane-initiated steroid signaling pathway. The distinct pharmacological properties of E4 could explain its low impact on hemostasis. This study aimed to assess the effect of E4 on coagulation in postmenopausal women, using the thrombin generation assay (TGA). Data were collected from a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-finding study in postmenopausal women (NCT02834312). Oral E4 (2.5 mg, n = 42; 5 mg, n = 29; 10 mg, n = 34; or 15 mg, n = 32) or placebo (n = 31) was administered daily for 12 weeks. Thrombograms and TGA parameters were extracted for each subject at baseline and after 12 weeks of treatment. After 12 weeks of treatment, all treatment groups showed a mean thrombogram (±95% confidence interval [CI] of the mean) within the reference ranges, that is, the 2.5th–97.5th percentile of all baseline thrombograms (n = 168), as well as for TGA parameters. The intake of E4 15 mg for 12 weeks led to significant but not clinically relevant changes compared to baseline as the mean values (±95% CI of the mean) remained within reference ranges, demonstrating a neutral profile of this estrogen on hemostasis.

description: The genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) affects up to 84% of postmenopausal women and may significantly reduce the quality of life in some. For symptom relief, there are several non-hormonal and hormonal vaginal products available. In Europe, vaginal estriol (E3) is the most frequently chosen estrogen for GSM treatment. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the impact of vaginal E3 on serum sex hormone levels, an outcome that has been previously used to assess safety in similar products. In our review, we did not find any alterations in serum estrone, estradiol, testosterone, progesterone and sex hormone binding globulin levels after vaginal E3 application. In contrast, some studies showed a minimal and transient decrease in serum gonadotropin levels, which however remained within the postmenopausal range. Similarly, only a few studies reported a minimal and transient increase of serum E3 levels, with the rest reporting no changes. The lack of clinically relevant long-term changes in serum sex hormone levels supports the current literature providing evidence about the safety of vaginal E3 products.

description: One of the decisions that arise when designing a neural network for any application is how the data should be represented in order to be presented to, and possibly generated by, a neural network. For audio, the choice is less obvious than it seems to be for visual images, and a variety of representations have been used for different applications including the raw digitized sample stream, hand-crafted features, machine discovered features, MFCCs and variants that include deltas, and a variety of spectral representations. This paper reviews some of these representations and issues that arise, focusing particularly on spectrograms for generating audio using neural networks for style transfer.

description: Long-term protective effects of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) at fractures with different doses and components are controversial. We analyzed the effect of MHT on the incidence of spine and femur fractures according to MHT type, age at commencement, duration and dose of hormones in Korean women. This retrospective study evaluated propensity score-matched patients with MHT from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. Among women aged ≥50 years with menopause between 2004 and 2007, spine and femur fracture incidence until 2017 was analyzed in 36,446 women who had received MHT for >1 year. Estrogen–progesterone therapy (EPT), estrogen-only therapy (ET) or tibolone therapy was conducted. EPT significantly lowered the incidence of spine and femur fractures with a conventional dose, but not with a low dose. Tibolone significantly decreased the incidence of spine fractures in women aged 50–59 years when used for >5 years, and the incidence of femur fractures in women older than 60 years when used for >3 years. ET significantly lowered the risk of femur fractures when estradiol was used for >5 years. In menopausal women, all MHT including conventional-dose EPT, ET and tibolone tended to lower the incidence of fractures. The effects, however, varied with the type of fracture and type of MHT.

description: Dodecanoyl isothiocyanate 1 was utilized for the construction of thioureido, 2-thioxo-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one, benzo[d]-1,3-thiazin-4(H)-one and 3-amino quinazolin-4(3H)-one derivatives 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively. However, N′-(2-cyanoacetyl) dodecanehydrazide 6 was also used as a key starting material for the construction of a variety of new pyrazolone, pyrazole, thiadiazole, pyridazine, chromeno[2,3-c]pyrazole, and dithiolane derivatives 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 20, respectively. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analyses and spectral data (IR, 1H NMR, and mass spectra). Some of the newly synthesized compounds bearing heterocyclic moieties were tested for antioxidant activity as reflected in their ability to inhibit oxidation in rat brain and kidney homogenates using 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) inhibition. Also, in vitro anticancer activity was examined using the standard (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) (MTT) method against a panel of two human tumor cell lines namely; hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 and mammary gland breast cancer MCF-7. Compounds 12 and 16b exhibited the highest activities as antioxidant and antitumor agents. Meanwhile, compounds 7 and 20 showed moderate activities and the rest of the tested compounds showed weak activities.

Ultra-compact structure in intermediate-luminosity radio quasars: building a sample of standard cosmological rulers and improving the dark energy constraints up to $z\sim 3$

description: In this paper, we present a new compiled milliarcsecond compact radio data set of 120 intermediate-luminosity quasars in the redshift range $0.46< z <2.76$. These quasars show negligible dependence on redshifts and intrinsic luminosity, and thus represents, in the standard model of cosmology, a fixed comoving-length of standard ruler. We implement a new cosmology-independent technique to calibrate the linear size of of this standard ruler as $l_m= 11.03\pm0.25$ pc, which is the typical radius at which AGN jets become opaque at the observed frequency $ν\sim 2$ GHz. In the framework of flat $Λ$CDM model, we find a high value of the matter density parameter, $Ω_m=0.322^{+0.244}_{-0.141}$, and a low value of the Hubble constant, $H_0=67.6^{+7.8}_{-7.4}\; \rm{kms}^{-1}\rm{Mpc}^{-1}$, which is in excellent agreement with the CMB anisotropy measurements by \textit{Planck}. We obtain ${Ω_m}=0.309^{+0.215}_{-0.151}$, $w=-0.970^{+0.500}_{-1.730}$ at 68.3% CL for the constant $w$ of a dynamical dark-energy model, which demonstrates no significant deviation from the concordance $Λ$CDM model. Consistent fitting results are also obtained for other cosmological models explaining the cosmic acceleration, like Ricci dark energy (RDE) or Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP) brane-world scenario. While no significant change in $w$ with redshift is detected, there is still considerable room for evolution in $w$ and the transition redshift at which $w$ departing from -1 is located at $z\sim 2.0$. Our results demonstrate that the method extensively investigated in our work on observational radio quasar data can be used to effectively derive cosmological information. Finally, we find the combination of high-redshift quasars and low-redshift clusters may provide an important source of angular diameter distances, considering the redshift coverage of these two astrophysical probes.

description: Interprofessional student-led health clinics have been implemented worldwide and have been reported to be of benefit to patients, students, communities and universities. Student-led clinics aim to improve student learning, capability, capacity and entrepreneurship. They have been advocated as one of the potential solutions to student clinical placement shortages. Student-led clinics can also be an affordable option for individuals, families and communities to access high quality, evidence-based healthcare. They can afford opportunities for students to develop collaborative skills and engage in multi-disciplinary teams. Models for interprofessional student-led clinics and the services delivered by students vary widely across the healthcare sector and across global regions. This review aims to define interprofessional student-led health clinics, to describe the different models for delivering student-led clinics and to map the implementation of student-led clinics, including services delivered by students, disciplines involved, supervision and evaluation. The review also evaluates reported outcomes for stakeholders and investigates the feasibility of implementation.

description: Series of cyclotriveratrylene (CTV) derivatives with triazole ring and three alkyl groups were prepared by one-pot click condensation in yield of 80–88%. The structures and crown conformations were confirmed by NMR and MS. Their liquid crystalline properties were investigated by DSC, POM and XRD analysis. The studies on mesomorphic properties suggested that the CTV derivatives with pentyl, hexyl or dodecyl groups show no mesophase but the one with octadecyl groups possesses ordered hexagonal columnar mesophase. In comparison with the reported columnar CTV liquid crystals with six alkyl chains at least, the CTV columnar CTV liquid crystal with three alkyl chains was reported for the first time. These results suggested a subtle balance between the number and length of alkyl chains for columnar CTV liquid crystalline behavior.

description: The concentrations of heavy metals in the bivalve molluscs Anadara similis and A. tuberculosa are determined. The specimens were collected at 2 km from the mouth of Estero Huaylá, El Oro Province, Ecuador, in November 2013. The length and weight of each species were determined in the laboratory, with two length ranges being established for A. similis and four for A. tuberculosa. The meat of the organisms was extracted, washed and dried in an oven at 60 ° C for 72 h, then digested with a mixture of HNO3 and HClO4 in a 3: 1 ratio. The concentrations of 4 metals: lead, arsenic, mercury and cadmium were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The mean values obtained in A. similis (mg / kg) were: Pb (8.51 ± 0.34); As (1.42 ± 0.06); Hg (618.7 ± 355.32); Cd (1.21 ± 0.23) mg / kg; While for A. tuberculosa: Pb (7.52 ± 0.46); As (1.55 ± 0.14); Hg (364.38 ± 91.39); Cd (1.68 ± 0.28) mg / kg. The recorded concentrations of Pb, As, Cd and Hg in both species of molluscs exceed the maximum limits allowed by the International Standards. The smaller sizes (3-4 cm) of A. tuberculosa have the capacity to bioaccumulate more Pb, Hg and Cd, while A. similis showed its highest concentration of Pb in its smallest size (4-5 cm).

description: We report measurements of the de Haas-van Alphen effect in the layered heavy-fermion compound CePt$_2$In$_7$ in high magnetic fields up to 35 T. Above an angle-dependent threshold field, we observed several de Haas-van Alphen frequencies originating from almost ideally two-dimensional Fermi surfaces. The frequencies are similar to those previously observed to develop only above a much higher field of 45 T, where a clear anomaly was detected and proposed to originate from a change in the electronic structure [M. M. Altarawneh et al., Phys. Rev. B 83, 081103 (2011)]. Our experimental results are compared with band structure calculations performed for both CePt$_2$In$_7$ and LaPt$_2$In$_7$, and the comparison suggests localized $f$ electrons in CePt$_2$In$_7$. This conclusion is further supported by comparing experimentally observed Fermi surfaces in CePt$_2$In$_7$ and PrPt$_2$In$_7$, which are found to be almost identical. The measured effective masses in CePt$_2$In$_7$ are only moderately enhanced above the bare electron mass $m_0$, from 2$m_0$ to 6$m_0$.

description: Hadron tomography can be investigated by three-dimensional structure functions such as generalized parton distributions (GPDs), transverse-momentum-dependent parton distributions, and generalized distribution amplitudes (GDAs). Here, we extract the GDAs, which are $s$-$t$ crossed quantities of the GPDs, from cross-section measurements of hadron-pair production process $γ^* γ\rightarrow π^0 π^0$ at KEKB. This work is the first attempt to obtain the GDAs from the actual experimental data. The GDAs are expressed by a number of parameters and they are determined from the data of $γ^* γ\rightarrow π^0 π^0$ by including intermediate scalar- and tensor-meson contributions to the cross section. Our results indicate that the dependence of parton-momentum fraction $z$ in the GDAs is close to the asymptotic one. The timelike gravitational form factors $Θ_1$ and $Θ_2$ are obtained from our GDAs, and they are converted to the spacelike ones by the dispersion relation.From the spacelike $Θ_1$ and $Θ_2$, gravitational densities of the pion are calculated. Then, we obtained the mass (energy) radius and the mechanical (pressure and shear force) radius from $Θ_2$ and $Θ_1$, respectively. They are calculated as $\sqrt {\langle r^2 \rangle _{\text{mass}}} =0.32 \sim 0.39$ fm, whereas the mechanical radius is larger $\sqrt {\langle r^2 \rangle _{\text{mech}}} =0.82 \sim 0.88$ fm. This is the first report on the gravitational radius of a hadron from actual experimental measurements. It is interesting to find the possibility that the gravitational mass and mechanical radii could be different from the experimental charge radius $\sqrt {\langle r^2 \rangle _{\text{charge}}} =0.672 \pm 0.008$ fm for the charged pion.

Multiclass Compactness Index for Urban Areas
Creators: name: Kaza, Nikhil
Publisher: name: Taylor & Francis
Year: 2024

description: Often urban compactness indexes ignore the variegated intensity of urban development in their focus on the configuration. In this article, I propose an extension to the index of moment of inertia (IMI) as a compactness measure that can account for multiple ordinal classes representing development intensity. I demonstrate this index for developed areas for each county in the contiguous United States. These counties have a range of development configurations and intensity compositions. I show that for this data set, ignoring the multiple class composition and only focusing on the configuration overestimates the urban compactness in almost all instances. I demonstrate the impact of different analytical choices on the index for this data set.

description: Poverty and hunger in Africa are prevalent and will increase in absolute terms with population growth and continued land degradation. Therefore, there is a need for sustainable agricultural strategies, such as conservation agriculture (CA) and integrated pest management (IPM). Among CA practices, intercropping holds the promise of providing benefits to smallholders through increased crop yields and income as well as improved resource use. We review intercropping’s effects on crop yield, income, and output of IPM practices in Africa. On average, intercropping increases crop yields by 23% and gross income by 172 USD/ha, but effects vary significantly depending on management practices and agro-ecological factors. There was no evidence that yields and gross income for intercropping treatments increase when leguminous intercropping combinations, minimum/reduced tillage, pesticides, or fertilizers were utilized. Dual use of herbicides and intercropping practices garnered 1442 USD/ha more in gross income and yielded 1422 kg/ha more compared to those in conventionally managed fields, signifying the positive influence supplemental inputs can have on intercropping’s effects. Although IPM practices increased yields by 20%, on average, IPM systems integrated with intercropping yielded 24% less than IPM systems that did not. This meta-analysis indicates that intercropping is an advantageous sustainable agricultural practice, but that its effective implementation would depend on considering other factors such as adequate control of competing vegetation. There is a clear need for more scientific studies which examine intercropping’s role in complex sustainable agricultural systems, in order to understand its effects in differential environmental and socioeconomic situations and to optimize the practice’s transfer and benefits.

description: We focus on non-linear realizations of local supersymmetry as obtained by using constrained superfields in supergravity. New constraints, beyond those of rigid supersymmetry, are obtained whenever curvature multiplets are affected as well as higher derivative interactions are introduced. In particular, a new constraint, which removes a very massive gravitino is introduced, and in the rigid limit it merely reduces to an explicit supersymmetry breaking. Higher curvature supergravities free of ghosts and instabilities are also obtained in this way. Finally, we consider direct coupling of the goldstino multiplet to the super Gauss--Bonnet multiplet and discuss the emergence of a new scalar degree of freedom.

description: 331 models constitute an extension of the Standard Model (SM) obtained by enlarging the SM gauge group $SU(3)_\text{C}\times SU(2)_\text{L}\times U(1)_Y$ to the group $SU(3)_\text{C}\times SU(3)_\text{L}\times U(1)_X$. We investigate how a non-minimal 331 model may embed lepton flavour universality violating contributions to $b\to s\ell\ell$ processes without introducing lepton flavour violation, as suggested by the recent LHCb measurements of the ratios $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$. We discuss the model-independent scenarios of New Physics in $b\to s\ell\ell$ currently favoured by the data that could be accommodated by this model and consider a few phenomenological constraints on this model.

description: A simple equation established by Cordova & Cordova (LDL-COR) was developed to provide an improved estimation of LDL-cholesterol in a large Brazilian laboratory database. We evaluated this new equation in a general population cohort in Pomerania, north-eastern Germany (SHIP Study) compared to other existing formulas (Anandaraja, Teerakanchana, Chen, Hattori, Martin, Friedewald and Ahmadi), and its power in the prediction of death by atherosclerosis related events as the primary outcome. Analysis was conducted on a cohort of 4075 individuals considering age, gender, use of lipid lowering therapy and associated co-morbidities such as diabetes, hepatic, kidney and thyroid disease. LDL-COR values had a lower standard deviation compared to the previously published equations: 0.92 versus 1.02, 1.02, 1.03, 1.04, 1.09, 1.10 and 1.74 mmol/L, respectively. All of the factors known to affect the results obtained by the Friedewald’s equation (LDL-FW), except fibrate use, were associated with the difference between LDL-COR and LDL-FW (p p = .06). LDL-COR determined a higher hazard ratio (1.23 versus 1.12, 1.19, 1.21, 1.19, 1.21 and 1.19) for cardiovascular disease related mortality, incident stroke or myocardial infarction compared to the other evaluated formulas, except for Ahmadi’s (1.24), and the same adjusted predictive power considering all confounding factors. The proposed simple equation was demonstrated to be suitable for a more precise LDL-c estimation in the studied population. Since LDL-c is a parameter frequently requested by medical laboratories in clinical routine, and will probably remain so, precise methods for its estimation are needed when direct measurement is not available.

description: The mechanism of angular momentum transport in protoplanetary disks is fundamental to understand the distributions of gas and dust in the disks. The unprecedented, high spatial resolution ALMA observations taken toward HL Tau and subsequent radiative transfer modeling reveal that a high degree of dust settling is currently achieved at the outer part of the HL Tau disk. Previous observations however suggest a high disk accretion rate onto the central star. This configuration is not necessarily intuitive in the framework of the conventional viscous disk model, since efficient accretion generally requires a high level of turbulence, which can suppress dust settling considerably. We develop a simplified, semi-analytical disk model to examine under what condition these two properties can be realized in a single model. Recent, non-ideal MHD simulations are utilized to realistically model the angular momentum transport both radially via MHD turbulence and vertically via magnetically induced disk winds. We find that the HL Tau disk configuration can be reproduced well when disk winds are properly taken into account. While the resulting disk properties are likely consistent with other observational results, such an ideal situation can be established only if the plasma $β$ at the disk midplane is $β_0 \simeq 2 \times 10^4$ under the assumption of steady accretion. Equivalently, the vertical magnetic flux at 100 au is about 0.2 mG. More detailed modeling is needed to fully identify the origin of the disk accretion and quantitatively examine plausible mechanisms behind the observed gap structures in the HL Tau disk.

description: A novel Wells–Dawson heteropolyacid-based magnetic Inorganic–organic nanohybrid, Fe3O4@SiO2@ADMPT/H6P2W18O62, was fabricated and used as a green, efficient, eco-friendly, and highly recyclable catalyst for the one-pot and multi-component synthesis of 1,4-Dihydopyridine (1,4-DHP) derivatives from the reaction of various aromatic aldehydes with ethyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate with good to excellent yields and in a short span of time. The nanohybrid catalyst was prepared by the chemical anchoring of Wells–Dawson heteropolyacid H6P2W18O62 onto the surface of functionalized Fe3O4 nanoparticles with 2,4-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol)-triazine (ADMPT) linker. These nanocatalysts were identified by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). This protocol is developed as a safe, cost-effective and convenient alternate method for the synthesis of 1,4-DHP derivatives utilizing an eco-friendly, and a highly reusable catalyst.

description: We have a family mystery. My father Henry Everhard (everyone called him Harry) was in the Italy campaign and his brother (Vic Everhard) was also in Italy at the same time, also in the army. During this time my father's brother Vic disappeared from his unit yet managed to arrange a meeting up with my father. I was told my Uncle Vic had joined the Italian partisans. There appeared to be no repercussions from this, no accusations of desertion. We assume that this absence must have been sanctioned by my uncle's military unit. My father, Henry Everhard (Harry) was in the 8th Army in Italy and was in the Royal Artillery, rank Gunner but he was a signaller. When I asked him what the war was like he told me to never read the account of military historian Corelli Barnet, saying his accounts of the 8th Army "were rubbish". He said if I wanted to know the truth, I was to read Spike Milligan's accounts in his autobiography as he did the same job as my father. I used to watch on TV war films with my father and he said American GIs were just like the way they were portrayed. He recalled being stopped whilst in Italy by Americans in a Jeep who stopped him and asked, "Which way's the war bud?".
