description: In medical imaging, DL models are often tasked with delineating structures or abnormalities within complex anatomical structures, such as tumors, blood vessels, or organs. Uncertainty arises from the inherent complexity and variability of these structures, leading to challenges in precisely defining their boundaries. This uncertainty is further compounded by interrater variability, as different medical experts may have varying opinions on where the true boundaries lie. DL models must grapple with these discrepancies, leading to inconsistencies in segmentation results across different annotators and potentially impacting diagnosis and treatment decisions. Addressing interrater variability in DL for medical segmentation involves the development of robust algorithms capable of capturing and quantifying uncertainty, as well as standardizing annotation practices and promoting collaboration among medical experts to reduce variability and improve the reliability of DL-based medical image analysis. Interrater variability poses significant challenges in the field of DL for medical image segmentation.

This challenge is designed to promote awareness of the impact uncertainty has on clinical applications of medical image analysis. In our last-year edition, we proposed a competition based on modeling the uncertainty of segmenting three abdominal organs, namely kidney, liver and pancreas, focusing on organ volume as a clinical quantity of interest. This year, we go one step further and propose to segment pancreatic pathological structures, namely Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with the clinical goal of understanding vascular involvement, a key measure of tumor resectability. In this above context, uncertainty quantification is a much more challenging task, given the wildly varying contours that different PDAC instances show.

This year, we will provide a richer dataset, in which we start from an already existing dataset of clinically verified contrast-enhanced abdominal CT scans with a single set of manual annotations (provided by the PANORAMA organization, which we invite to be part of our challenge), and make an effort to construct four extra manual annotations per PDAC case. In this way, we will assemble a unique dataset that creates a notable opportunity to analyze the impact of multi-rater annotations in several dimensions, e.g. different annotation protocols or different annotator experiences, to name a few.

description: In 2017, Dallas became one of the two dozen US cities that established “welcoming communities” as part of immigration incorporation initiatives. Immigrants play a crucial role in the vitality of the city – 25 percent of Dallas residents are foreign born, and 32 percent of the labor force in the Dallas metro area are immigrants. The Dallas Office of Welcoming Communities and Immigrant Affairs (WCIA) developed a multi-faceted strategic plan to promote the successful inclusion of immigrants into the social and economic fabric of the Dallas community. Our research couples the aspirations of the Dallas WCIA strategic plan with the expertise of the LBJ School of Public Affairs graduate students. This Policy Research Project (PRP) centers on policy analysis and methods to measure immigrants’ attitudes about life in Dallas, to delineate immigrant and refugee residents’ access to services, to analyze how Dallas scores on indices based on measures of integration, and to offer policy tools to foster the incorporation of immigrants into Dallas. Our analyses approach immigrant incorporation from three distinct vantage points. The first is assessing how Dallas compares to other major US cities on immigrant inclusion. This tier explores methods of measuring immigrant inclusion and techniques for comparing cities on these standardized indices. The second analyzes census tract data for the City of Dallas to discern the residential patterns of immigrants and the demographic and socioeconomic features of these neighborhoods. The third queries the immigrants themselves to gather insights on the extent that they feel included within the broader Dallas community.

description: Fragmente von zwei epigraphischen Dossiers betreffen den julisch-claudischen Kaiserkult in Aizanoi. Von Dossier 1 sind erhalten: Briefe von C. Norbanus Flaccus (MAMA IX 13 [Wörrle, Chiron 41, 2011, 357–376]), von M. Plautius Silvanus (hier ediert), von Tiberius (Oliver, Greek Constitutions 13) und von Nero (Oliver 35). Die beiden Statthalterbriefe dokumentieren Gründung und Reform eines Kultes von kaiserlichen Theoi Homobomioi als lokale Reaktion auf die Adoption von C. und L. Caesar, 17 v.Chr., und deren demonstrative öffentliche Empfehlung, 5 v.Chr., durch Augustus. Dessen Familienpolitik erscheint dabei in neuem Licht. Die Briefe von Tiberius und Nero werden kritisch neu ediert. Die gesamte Korrespondenz ist Ergebnis der Diplomatie einer aizanitischen Honoratiorenfamilie, zu der auch Apollonios, Erzpriester des Koinon von Asia 10/9 v.Chr., gehört. Dossier 2 besteht aus einem Brief des Claudius (hier ediert), vier Fragmenten eines Stifterschreibens (MAMA IX 45; LBW 858; Koerte, AM 25, 1900, 401f.; LBW 859) und zwei Fragmenten eines Annahme-Dekrets (?) von Aizanoi (LBW 857; MAMA IX 15). Der Brief des Claudius erfordert die Rekonstruktion unerwartet langer Zeilen für alle Fragmente und läßt mit seinem Datum (Sommer 52 n.Chr.) die Adoption Neros durch Claudius (Februar 50) als Anlaß für die Stiftung eines erneuerten Homobomioi-Kultes und -Festes in Aizanoi erkennen. Der Stifter, ein sehr reicher Großgrundbesitzer, hat mit seiner Familie von Claudius das römische Bürgerrecht erlangt, das der Familie von Dossier 1 noch unter Nero versagt geblieben ist. Homobomienfeste nach aizanitischem Vorbild wurden 221 und 251 n.Chr. zur Feier kaiserlicher Adoptionen unter Elagabal und Trebonianus Gallus in Kadoi durchgeführt und zeigen die Langlebigkeit der Festtradition mit ihren augusteischen Reminiszenzen. Homobomioi Theoi Sebastoi erscheinen auch in LBW 1021. Die Inschrift bezeugt für ihre Zeit die Zugehörigkeit von Eğrigöz zu dem sehr ausgedehnten Territorium von Aizanoi.
Staffordshire Hoard Scale Images - Part 2

description: The Staffordshire Hoard is an unparalleled treasure find dating from Anglo-Saxon times. Both the quality and quantity of this unique treasure are remarkable. The story of how it came to be left in the Staffordshire soil is likely to be more remarkable still. The Hoard was first discovered in July 2009. The find is likely to spark decades of debate among archaeologists, historians and enthusiasts. The hoard contains in excess of 1500 objects made from various metals - 5kg of gold and 1.3kg of silver - by contrast the Sutton Hoo find contained 1.66kg of precious metals. This hoard is perhaps the most important collection of Anglo-Saxon objects found in England. It compares and perhaps exceeds those objects found at Sutton Hoo. Originally discovered by metal detectorist Terry Herbert in July 2009 and subsequently excavated by Birmingham University Archaeology Unit and Staffordshire County Council. The press quality photos are by Dave Rowan and Daniel Buxton under the aegis of Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery.

description: This paper offers new critical editions of fifteen late Roman verse epitaphs from the «Axylon», the East Phrygian steppe to the west of Lake Tatta in the Roman province of Galatia. Eleven of these epitaphs are assigned to three individual village poets, the «Zıvarık poet», the «Çe¸smelisebil poet», and the «Koça¸s poet». The author discusses the evidence which these epitaphs provide for levels of education and literacy in rural Anatolia in the late Roman period, with a particular focus on the use of words and phrases drawn from the Homeric epics. The metre of the texts is analysed in detail, and the paper concludes with a discussion of the social and ethical values expressed in the late Roman verse epitaphs of the region.

Even today, very few publications contain exercises specifically designed to practise Old English syntax. This set of exercises aims at somehow filling that niche. The exercises are all original and are organised in such a way as to illustrate the many factors that contribute to Old English word-order (from purely structural to pragmatic and processing-related ones). The targets for these exercises are elementary to intermediate students of Old English. Given the fact that some of these students may be unfamiliar with the language I decided to provide glosses and translations for most of the OE sentences, as well as syntactic tags.

description: This contribution begins with the discussion of a new reading for the name of a dedicant of a ‹Lycian› Twelve Gods relief, published in LGPN V.B (2013). An analysis of the distribution of the names derived from the Hittite-Luwian divinity Arma in the Greek inscriptions of southern Anatolia then establishes the origin of the dedicant. The way in which, in Lycia, the Arma theophoric names came to meet, adapt and survive in an onomastic landscape that became predominantly Greek in the course of the Hellenistic period, is explored by looking at the influence between these names and Greek personal names derived from Hermes. This onomastic enquiry results in a more accurate definition of the features and borders of onomastic units in Lycia and her immediate neighbours, and helps to recover elements of the centuries-long history of the populations of these regions.

description: Curcuma phaeocaulis Val. is used in Chinese Pharmacopoeia as health food and folk medicine for removing blood stasis, alleviating pain and tumor therapy. This research was aimed to explore and compare three main bioactivities including anti-oxidant, antitumor and anti-inflammatory activities between the ethanol extract of C. Phaeocaulis and its fractions using different in vitro models. Firstly, 70 % ethanol was used to extract C. Phaeocaulis, and then the crude extract was re-extracted, resulting in petroleum ether (EZ-PE), ethyl acetate (EZ-EA), and water fractions (EZ-W), respectively, and then a series of index was detected. Results showed that all the extracts had medium DPPH radical scavenging activity when the concentration was 200 μg/ml and their DPPH radical scavenging activity was in a concentration-dependent manner. The extracts except ethanol extract of C. Phaeocaulis had almost no cytotoxicity to the survival of RAW264.7 cell when the concentration reached 80 μg/ml, and all of them had medium inhibitory effect on nitrite release. Extracts of C. Phaeocaulis had medium intensity antitumor activity, EZ-PE and EZ-EA fractions significantly inhibited the proliferation of four tumor cells (SMMC-7721 cell lines, HepG-2 cell lines, A549 cell lines and Hela cell lines). C. Phaeocaulis had antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, which did not carry out centralized phenomenon when re-extracted. EZ-PE and EZ-EA were active antitumor sites of C. Phaeocaulis.

description: Predicting the growth morphology of crystals, from the knowledge of their structure, can be done by applying: a) the Bravais-Friedel-Donnay-Harker (BFDH) rule stating that higher the spacing dhkl, higher the morphological importance (MI) of the {hkl} form b) the Hartman and Perdok (HP) rule grounded on the idea that higher the attachment energy value, higher the corresponding growth rate (Rhkl ) and, consequently, lower the morphological importance of the {hkl} form. According to the BFDH rule both ‘positive’ and ‘negative’ calcite forms must have the same morphological importance i. e. they appearance probability may be the same. However, their occurrence is very different and only the ’positive’ forms are commonly found both in nature laboratory. A PBC analysis is being performed in order to find the F-faces of the ‘negative’ forms and then its surface energy is calculate

Digital technologies influence how scientists process information. The changing environment for librarians and data managers strongly redirects to national and international networks between different research institutions. Accessibility and visibility of research output towards ‘openness’ is part of collaborative working information infrastructure units at non-university research organization like the Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF). As member of the Leibniz Association, it promotes free exchange of research results according to the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities.

ZALF explores ecosystems in agricultural landscapes and the development of ecologically and economically justifiable land use systems. Thereby, the central infrastructure facilities Central Library plus and the Department of Landscape Information Systems jointly support the research process by providing technical solutions for knowledge management and information services.

Supporting metadata collection, quality controlled data registration and availability of research products in repositories with long-term preservation strategies, ZALF encourages Open Access and data sharing. Consulting, reporting and monitoring the organizational publication process (e.g. by prepay membership and publication funds) are means to enable the researcher’s decision towards an opening science. The scientific outcome can be embedded into the linked virtual research environment, so disciplinary, technical and structural synergies evolve.

The poster presents already established processes, surrounding conditions and challenges within the scientific community as far as future perspectives on developing publication types and Open Data.

Administrative Bloat

description: A lot has been written about Administrative Bloat at Universities of Higher Eduction and how that, together with growing salaries for administrators, is feeding into increased tuition costs. This is a valid point of discussion but it’s possible that the increased costs come with increased benefits. Administrative growth is tied to universities moving toward business models and corporatization and, holding to a business view, a question less often asked is “Is the increase in administrators and staff leading to an increased Return on Investment (ROI)?” Administrators draw salaries which increases the I in the ROI. So, they must also be increasing the R in ROI or what would be the point (what corporation would be silly enough to create more administrative positions that lead to no positive changes or, at best, to no change at all). What follows are some in-the-trenches observations that relate to that question.

VII 3042 liegt. Danach lassen sich zwar schon früh einzelne Kaiserpriester für den regierenden Princeps nachweisen, doch ist dies wie alle anderen Zeugnisse der Kaiserverehrung zumindest im I. Jhdt. n.Chr. offenbar durchweg dem privaten oder jedenfalls lokalen Engagement einzelner Persönlichkeiten bzw. Gruppen zu danken. Das prokuratorische Amt des Archiereus, der seinem offiziellen Titel nach für den Kult des Kaisers wie des Sarapis zuständig war und die Oberaufsicht über sämtliche Heiligtümer und sonstige kultische Einrichtungen Ägyptens hatte, wurde dagegen erst im Zuge einer großen Verwaltungsreform unter Hadrian zu Beginn der 120er Jahre geschaffen. Die Neuordnung der alexandrinischen Zentrale stellte eine Reaktion auf die im Verlauf des jüdischen Aufstandes zutage getretenen Probleme dar, indem man die Finanzen und die Belange der Priesterschaften aus der bis dahin gegebenen umfassenden Zuständigkeit des Präfekten ausgliederte und nunmehr jeweils eigenen Prokuratoren unterstellte.

description: In a randomised clinical trial, when the result of the primary endpoint shows a significant benefit, the secondary endpoints are scrutinised to identify additional effects of the treatment. However, this approach entails a risk of concluding that there is a benefit for one of these endpoints when such benefit does not exist (inflation of type I error risk). There are mainly two methods used to control the risk of drawing erroneous conclusions for secondary endpoints. The first method consists of distributing the risk over several co-primary endpoints, so as to maintain an overall risk of 5%. The second is the hierarchical test procedure, which consists of first establishing a hierarchy of the endpoints, then evaluating each endpoint in succession according to this hierarchy while the endpoints continue to show statistical significance. This simple method makes it possible to show the additional advantages of treatments and to identify the factors that differentiate them.

description: Stygoporus oregonensis Larson and Labonte, 1994 (Figs. 9–12) Stygoporus oregonensis Larson and Labonte 1994: 371; Nilsson 2001: 189; Larson et al. 2000: 138. Type Species. Stygoporus oregonenesis Larson and Labonte, 1994 by original designation. Type Locality. U.S.A., Oregon, Polk County, 7 km NNE Dallas, Smithfield Road, 44.973 ° N, 123.275 ° W, 90 m, well. Diagnosis. This species is unique within Hydroporini in having the following combination of characters: 1) compound eyes absent; 2) prosternal process inserted dorsad of the anterior margin of the metasternum; 3) with longitudinal impressions laterally on the pronotum (Fig. 9); 4) metacoxal processes together truncate posteriorly; 5) with natatory setae on the metatarsus and metatibia. Discussion. This species was described from nine specimens collected from a shallow well. The owners of the well, thinking the beetle may be a pest, chlorinated the well and the species has not been seen since (Larson and Labonte 1994). Larson and Labonte (1994) suggested that the presence of specimens in this particular well (an old well with no previous indication of a diving beetle fauna) may have been the result of an unusually large amount of precipitation that year in the region, possibly resulting in a change in the nature of the aquifer and temporarily allowing beetles into the well. Relationships. Larson and Labonte (1994) speculated that Stygoporus is the sister group to Sanfilippodytes Franciscolo based on the enlarged metatrochanters and produced posterior margin of the medial portions of the metacoxa. Sanfilippodytes occur in seeps and springs, and seem to be a likely candidate for occurrence in underground waters. One species, S. sbordonii Franciscolo, was described from a cave in Mexico (Franciscolo 1979). Although not anophthalmic like Stygoporus, S. sbordonii does have smaller eyes than typical Sanfilippodytes (Larson and Labonte 1994).

description: Une épitaphe latine inédite, provenant selon toute vraisemblance de la colonie romaine de Béryte (Beyrouth), honore la mémoire de C. Julius Rufus, soldat de la cohors I Pontica equitata civium Romanorum. Le défunt était originaire de Zéla, cité du Pont intégrée dans l’Empire romain en 64/5 apr. J.-C., en même temps que l’ensemble des domaines du roi Polémon II. Il a dû mourir de manière fortuite sur la côte syrienne au moment où sa cohorte partait au front ou en revenait. Son épitaphe témoigne du rôle de Béryte comme lieu de transit des troupes de l’armée romaine vers des horizons plus lointains. L’unité à laquelle le soldat Rufus appartenait était inconnue jusqu’à présent. Composée en partie des cavaliers qui avaient fait la réputation des armées royales pontiques, elle a pu être exterminée ou dissoute à l’occasion des conflits qui ont marqué l’histoire du Proche-Orient dans le dernier tiers du Ier s. ou au cours du IIe s. apr. J.-C.

description: Die beiden ersten Bände der neuen Ausgabe des Stephanos von Byzantion von der Hand M. Billerbecks haben erneut den Blick auf die Bedeutung dieses justinianischen Autors für unser Wissen von dem Selbstverständnis der Städte Kleinasiens gelenkt. In seinen Ethnica findet sich ein umfangreiches Lemma über die karische Stadt Alabanda, das allerdings im Laufe seiner Textgeschichte so malträtiert wurde, dass am Ende ein verwirrter, in sich widersprüchlicher und mit der tatsächlichen Geographie Kariens nicht in Einklang zu bringender Text entstand, der die Existenz von zwei Städten namens Alabanda konstatiert. Der Autor des Beitrags plädiert dafür, eine Passage dieses Lemmas als späte Einfügung zu erkennen und aus dem Text zu streichen. Auf diese Weise entsteht ein in sich schlüssiger Lexikonartikel, der nur ein einziges Alabanda erwähnt, dessen mythische Gründungsgeschichte unter Rückgriff auf Charax von Pergamon erzählt wird. Gründer der Stadt war demnach der eponyme Heros Kariens, Kar, der die Stadt nicht nach sich, sondern nach seinem Sohn Alabandos benannte. Dieser war dem Kar von einer Tochter des Flussgottes Mäander nach einem Sieg in einer Reiterschlacht geboren worden und deshalb ‹Reitersieg(er)› genannt worden. In den alabandiakischen Patriatraditionen machte Alabandos seinem Namen alle Ehre, da er ihnen zufolge gut mit Pferden umgehen konnte und ein Vorbild an Tapferkeit war, von dem sogar Cicero von seinem alabandiakischen Lehrer Apollonios Molon erfahren hat und der auf kaiserzeitlichen Münzen der Stadt zusammen mit einem Pferd dargestellt ist. Wenn auch die Verehrung bzw. der Kult des Alabandos schon im 4. Jhdt. v.Chr. nachzuweisen ist, kann diese Patriatradition wegen der falschen Etymologisierung des Namens und des Missverstehens der in ihm verwendeten karischen Wörter erst mit dem Aussterben der karischen Sprache aufgekommen sein.

description: This is a zipped file of all the original material used in the computer-based 'Beowulf Workstation'. This was written in HyperCard on the Apple Macintosh, late c. 1990 by Professor Patrick Conner at West Virginia University to help students study and translate Beowulf. The program presented the text with annotations, and automatic glossary, background essays, and images. It was a pioneering use of hypertext to tech literature and the designs used influenced many subsequent packages (notably Oxford's Old English Coursepack). To run this you will need to run Hypercard or an emulator on a Mac. This may require emulation of the Mac Classic environment (see programs such as SheepShaver - http://sheepshaver.cebix.net/). Files should be in a folder called 'Beowulf Workstation' and you begin by opening 'home'. There should also be a 'help' file.

description: The slow–fast continuum is a commonly used framework to describe variation in life-history strategies across species. Individual life histories have also been assumed to follow a similar pattern, especially in the pace-of-life syndrome literature. However, whether a slow–fast continuum commonly explains life-history variation among individuals within a population remains unclear. Here, we formally tested for the presence of a slow–fast continuum of life histories both within populations and across species using detailed long-term individual-based demographic data for 17 bird and mammal species with markedly different life histories. We estimated adult lifespan, age at first reproduction, annual breeding frequency, and annual fecundity, and identified the main axes of life-history variation using principal component analyses. Across species, we retrieved the slow–fast continuum as the main axis of life-history variation. However, within populations, the patterns of individual life-history variation did not align with a slow–fast continuum in any species. Thus, a continuum ranking individuals from slow to fast living is unlikely to shape individual differences in life histories within populations. Rather, individual life-history variation is likely idiosyncratic across species, potentially because of processes such as stochasticity, density dependence, and individual differences in resource acquisition that affect species differently and generate non-generalizable patterns across species.

description: Finger vein recognition technology has become one of the primary solutions for high-security identification systems. However, it still has information leakage problems, which seriously jeopardizes users privacy and anonymity and cause great security risks. In addition, there is no work to consider a fully integrated secure finger vein recognition system. So, different from the previous systems, we integrate preprocessing and template protection into an integrated deep learning model. We propose an end-to-end cancelable finger vein network (CFVNet), which can be used to design an secure finger vein recognition system.It includes a plug-and-play BWR-ROIAlign unit, which consists of three sub-modules: Localization, Compression and Transformation. The localization module achieves automated localization of stable and unique finger vein ROI. The compression module losslessly removes spatial and channel redundancies. The transformation module uses the proposed BWR method to introduce unlinkability, irreversibility and revocability to the system. BWR-ROIAlign can directly plug into the model to introduce the above features for DCNN-based finger vein recognition systems. We perform extensive experiments on four public datasets to study the performance and cancelable biometric attributes of the CFVNet-based recognition system. The average accuracy, EERs and Dsys on the four datasets are 99.82%, 0.01% and 0.025, respectively, and achieves competitive performance compared with the state-of-the-arts.
