description: This paper aims to review the encountered technical contradictions when an attacker meets the cipher-images encrypted by the image encryption schemes (algorithms) proposed in 2018 from the viewpoint of an image cryptanalyst. The most representative works among them are selected and classified according to their essential structures. Almost all image cryptanalysis works published in 2018 are surveyed due to their small number. The challenging problems on design and analysis of image encryption schemes are summarized to receive the attentions of both designers and attackers (cryptanalysts) of image encryption schemes, which may promote solving scenario-oriented image security problems with new technologies.

description: We study non-trivial (i.e. non-Levi-Civita) connections in metric-affine Lovelock theories. First we study the projective invariance of general Lovelock actions and show that all connections constructed by acting with a projective transformation of the Levi-Civita connection are allowed solutions, albeit physically equivalent to Levi-Civita. We then show that the (non-integrable) Weyl connection is also a solution for the specific case of the four-dimensional metric-affine Gauss-Bonnet action, for arbritrary vector fields. The existence of this solution is related to a two-vector family of transformations, that leaves the Gauss-Bonnet action invariant when acting on metric-compatible connections. We argue that this solution is physically inequivalent to the Levi-Civita connection, giving thus a counterexample to the statement that the metric and the Palatini formalisms are equivalent for Lovelock gravities. We discuss the mathematical structure of the set of solutions within the space of connections.

description: In this thesis, we explore the restrictions imposed on the genus of a smooth curve $X$  which possesses at least three independent gonal morphisms to $\Pp^1$. We will prove a sharp lower bound on the dimension of global sections given by the sum of the divisors for the gonal morphisms.  This inequality will provide an upper bound on the genus of a curve with the described properties. By considering the birational image of $X$ in $\Pp^1 \times \Pp^1 \times \Pp^1$ under the product of three pairwise independent morphisms, we observe that the boundary case for the previously mentioned inequality is closely related to the case where the image of $X$ is contained in a type 1-1-1 surface. Motivated by this phenomenon, we examine the constraints on the arithmetic genus of an irreducible curve in $\Pp^1 \times \Pp^1 \times \Pp^1$ whose natural projections are pairwise independent and all have degree 7.

description: We present a numerical classification of the spherically symmetric, static solutions to the Einstein--Yang--Mills equations with cosmological constant $Λ$. We find three qualitatively different classes of configurations, where the solutions in each class are characterized by the value of $Λ$ and the number of nodes, $n$, of the Yang--Mills amplitude. For sufficiently small, positive values of the cosmological constant, $Λ< \Llow(n)$, the solutions generalize the Bartnik--McKinnon solitons, which are now surrounded by a cosmological horizon and approach the deSitter geometry in the asymptotic region. For a discrete set of values $Λ_{\rm reg}(n) > Λ_{\rm crit}(n)$, the solutions are topologically $3$--spheres, the ground state $(n=1)$ being the Einstein Universe. In the intermediate region, that is for $\Llow(n) < Λ< \Lhig(n)$, there exists a discrete family of global solutions with horizon and ``finite size''.

On Compositional Data Modeling and Its Biomedical Applications
Creators: Zhang, Bingzhi
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2013
Subjects: Biometry

description: Compositional data occur naturally in biomedical studies which investigate changes in the proportions of various components of a combined medical measurement. The statistical method to analyze this type of data is underdeveloped. Currently the multivariate logitnormal model seems to be the only model routinely used in analyzing compositional data, and its application is mainly in geology and has yet to be known to the biomedical elds. In this dissertation, we propose the multivariate simplex model as an alternative method of modeling compositional data, either cross-sectional or longitudinal and develop statistical methods to analyze such data. We suggest three approaches to making a fair comparison between the multivariate simplex models and the multivariate logit-normal models. The simulations indicate that our proposed multivariate simplex models often outperform the multivariate logit-normal models.

description: Quality product descriptions are critical for providing competitive customer experience in an e-commerce platform. An accurate and attractive description not only helps customers make an informed decision but also improves the likelihood of purchase. However, crafting a successful product description is tedious and highly time-consuming. Due to its importance, automating the product description generation has attracted considerable interests from both research and industrial communities. Existing methods mainly use templates or statistical methods, and their performance could be rather limited. In this paper, we explore a new way to generate the personalized product description by combining the power of neural networks and knowledge base. Specifically, we propose a KnOwledge Based pErsonalized (or KOBE) product description generation model in the context of e-commerce. In KOBE, we extend the encoder-decoder framework, the Transformer, to a sequence modeling formulation using self-attention. In order to make the description both informative and personalized, KOBE considers a variety of important factors during text generation, including product aspects, user categories, and knowledge base, etc. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that the proposed method out-performs the baseline on various metrics. KOBE can achieve an improvement of 9.7% over state-of-the-arts in terms of BLEU. We also present several case studies as the anecdotal evidence to further prove the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The framework has been deployed in Taobao, the largest online e-commerce platform in China.

Especially, we calculate the time evolution operator in both flavor and mass bases. Furthermore, we find the transition probabilities, matter mass squared differences, and matter mixing angles all expressed in terms of the vacuum mass squared differences, the vacuum mixing angles, and the matter density. The conditions for resonance in the presence of matter are also studied in some examples.

description: In a recent paper it was shown that the response of an integrable QFT under variation of the Unruh temperature can be computed from a S-matrix preserving deformation of the form factor approach. We give explicit expressions for the deformed two-particle formfactors for various integrable models: The Sine-Gordon and SU(2) Thirring model, several perturbed minimal CFTs and the real coupling affine Toda series. A uniform pattern is found to emerge when both the S-matrix and the deformed form factors are expressed in terms Barnes' multi-periodic functions.

description: We have performed atomistic simulations for cylindrical multi-shell (CMS)-type Cu nanowires containing defects. Our investigation has revealed some physical properties that have not been detected in previous studies that have considered defect-free nanowires. Since the vacancy formation energy is lowest in the core of a CMS-type nanowire, a vacancy formed in the outer shell of a CMS-type nanowire naturally migrates toward the core. The maximum of the formation energy of an adhered atom on the surface of a CMS-type nanowire was modeled using a 16-11-6-1 nanowire. The formation energy of an adhered atom decreased when the diameter of the CMS-type nanowire was either above or below the diameter of the peak energy maximum. This investigation found three recombination mechanisms for the vacancy-adhered atom pairs: (i) by direct recombination, (ii) by a kick-in recombination, and (iii) by a ring recombination. Vacancy formation energy calculations show that an onion-like cluster with a hollow was formed, and molecular dynamics simulations for various CMS-type nanowires found that vacancies migrated towards the core. From these, we obtained basic information on the formation of hollow CMS-type metal nanowires (metal nanotubes) [Y. Oshima, et al., Phys. Rev. B 65, 121401 (2002)].

description: Standard statistical analysis is unable to provide reliable confidence intervals on expectation values of probability distributions that do not satisfy the conditions of the central limit theorem. We present a regression-based estimator of an arbitrary moment of a probability distribution with power-law heavy tails that exploits knowledge of the exponents of its asymptotic decay to bypass this issue entirely. Our method is applied to synthetic data and to energy and atomic force data from variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo calculations, whose distributions have known asymptotic forms [J. R. Trail, Phys. Rev. E 77, 016703 (2008); A. Badinski et al., J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 22 074202 (2010)]. We obtain convergent, accurate confidence intervals on the variance of the local energy of an electron gas and on the Hellmann-Feynman force on an atom in the all-electron carbon dimer. In each of these cases the uncertainty on our estimator is 45% and 60 times smaller, respectively, than the nominal (ill-defined) standard error.

description: The winter road now known as the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road was built by Echo Bay Mine in 1982 to service the then-new Lupin Gold Mine on Contwoyto Lake. The Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road Joint Venture (JV) was formed by Echo Bay Mines and BHP Billiton Diamonds in 1999. Diavik Diamond Mines joined the JV in 2001. Echo Bay left the JV in 2006 following the closure of the Lupine Gold Mine. The approximately 600 km road is used each winter to supply mines and exploration camps in the Slave Geological Province to the northeast of Yellowknife. Since the preparation of an environmental baseline for the renewal of the License of Occupation under which the JV operates the winter road, environmental studies associated with the road have been placed on a web-based Winter Road Environmental Management System known as WREMS. As part of the JV’s environmental commitment to continuous improvement, the JV has retained EBA Engineering Consultants Ltd. (EBA) to undertake the progressive remediation of a number of historic petroleum hydrocarbon impacted sites on the winter road. The results of this progressive remediation are being stored on WREMS and incorporated into Winter Road Abandonment and Reclamation planning. These types of studies are valuable as they provide various stakeholders with certainty that the proposed remediation techniques will work in the Sub-Arctic.

description: As France expanded its empire in North Africa, French artists, writers and explorers traveled to Algeria in order to gain artistic inspiration and greater understanding of the culture, geography and inhabitants of the new colony. This dissertation places music within the context of French colonial culture, identifying the interconnections between government policies and cultural production during France's occupation of Algeria. A central theme is the examination of colonial difference and a phenomenon that may be characterized as colonial textuality in music. Drawing from Homi Bhabha, I define colonial textuality as a space where signifiers of value, judgment and power are encountered, negotiated and embedded within colonial discourse. Three composers--Ernest Reyer (1823-1909), Francisco Salvador Daniel (1831-1871) and Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921)--are presented as case studies to understand the complexities and tensions that arose out of the colonial moment and to examine how each figure negotiated his own compositional style, musical career and artistic identity vis-à-vis colonial Algeria. The dissertation is organized chronologically by examining the lives and compositions of three composers living in Algeria during three key periods of French political history, the July Monarchy, Second Empire, and Third Republic. Chapters draw on archival research, reception studies, travel journals, government reports, cultural and political history, and musical analysis to explore the ways in which music, broadly defined, addressed social issues of identity, nation, race, and ethnicity. Topics include how violent tactics and events during the 1840s infiltrated the early musical compositions of Reyer and how music may be considered an act of violence; Salvador Daniel's opportunistic musical career in Algeria from 1853-1865; Salvador Daniel's Album de chansons arabes, mauresques et kabyles as a reflection of French politics and travel writing; Algerian tourism and Saint-Saëns's Africa fantasy and Suite algérienne; and unisonance, soundscape and the typography of what I call Saint-Saëns's "colonial marches."  In conclusion, I discuss a 2008 recording of Salvador Daniel's Algerian song transcriptions by the soprano Amel Brahim-Djelloul and the Ensemble Amedyez, thus illustrating that musical encounters with colonialism are continually reunderstood and readapted in the twenty-first century.

 VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Hab. in Caffraria superiore, campestri, prope Vaal Revier (26- 27°). ”
 CURRENT STATUS: Synonym of Zosterops pallidus Swainson, 1838; Zosteropidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 520). Sometimes recognized as a subspecies (not supported by DNA) under the name Zosterops pallidus sundevalli Hartlaub, 1865; see below under comments for details.
 STATUS REFERENCE: Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 520 and Bowie 2005: 823–824 (includes sundevalli Hartlaub, 1865 (see Gyldenstolpe 1926: 35, deserticola Reichenow, 1905 and haigamchabensis Bradfield, 1944).
TYPE MATERIAL: We can find no indication in Sundevall’s original description text that he had more than a single specimen at hand, but according to his acquisition catalogue he apparently had three available. Gyldenstolpe (1926: 35) refers to NRM 568713 [6678] as a “type”; we treat this as a lectotype designation of this adult male collected 5 August 1843 north of the Vaal River. The two paralectotypes are: NRM 555448 [6679], a study skin of an adult female collected 5 August 1843 north of the Vaal River; and a specimen [6677] of unknown sex and only noted as “Caffr. Inf.” sent on exchange to Berlin in 1853 (but not found in the ZMB database).
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: North of Vaal River, North West Province.
 COMMENTS: Collected on the same day as the type of Alauda fasciolata (see above). The type locality is probably just south of Potchefstroom. Since this name was shown to be a homonym of Zosterops lateralis (Latham, 1801), a species from Australia and neighboring islands, Hartlaub created a substitute name, Zosterops sundevalli (Hartlaub 1865: 8–9). NRM 568713 is also the lectotype for Zosterops sundevalli. Zosterops pallidus Swainson, 1838, based on “Dr. Burchell’s Coll. No. 43”, collected on the north bank of the Orange River, about 16 km east of Prieska on 18 Sept 1811, has priority over both names. The type specimen is in the Oxford University Museum of Natural History.

description: We demonstrate that certain Virasoro characters (and their linear combinations) in minimal and non-minimal conformal models which admit factorized forms are manifestly related to the ADE series. This permits to extract quasi-particle spectra of a Lie algebraic nature which resembles the features of Toda field theory. These spectra possibly admit a construction in terms of the $W_n$-generators. In the course of our analysis we establish interrelations between the factorized characters related to the parafermionic models, the compactified boson and the minimal models.

description: We propose deterministic and stochastic models for studying the pharmacokinetics of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), upon administration of IFN-$α$ (the traditional treatment for CML), TKI (the current frontline medication for CML) and Wnt/$β$-catenin signaling (the state-of-the art therapeutic breakthrough for CML). To the best of our knowledge, no mathematical model incorporating all these three therapeutic protocols are available in literature. Further, this work introduces a stochastic approach in the study of CML dynamics. The key contributions of this work are: (1) Determination of the patient condition, contingent upon the patient specific model parameters, which leads to prediction of the appropriate patient specific therapeutic dosage. (2) Addressing the question of how the dual therapy of TKI and Wnt/$β$-catenin signaling or triple combination of all three, offers potentially improved therapeutic responses, particularly in terms of reduced side effects of TKI or IFN-$α$. (3) Prediction of the likelihood of CML extinction/remission based on the level of CML stem cells at detection.
On Fourier-Mukai type functors

description: In this thesis we study functors between bounded derived categories of sheaves and how they can be expressed in a geometric way, namely whether they are isomorphic to a Fourier-Mukai transform. Specifically, we describe the behavior of a functor between derived categories of smooth projective varieties when restricted to the derived category of the generic point of the second variety, when this last variety is a curve, a point or a rational surface. We also compute in general some sheaves that play the role of the cohomology sheaves of the kernel of a Fourier-Mukai transform and are then able to exhibit a class of functors that are neither faithful nor full, that are isomorphic to a Fourier-Mukai transform.

description: Using density functional methods we calculated structural and electronic properties of bulk chloroform and bromoform intercalated C60, C60 2CHX3 (X=Cl,Br). Both compounds are narrow band insulator materials with a gap between valence and conduction bands larger than 1 eV. The calculated widths of the valence and conduction bands are 0.4-0.6 eV and 0.3-0.4 eV, respectively. The orbitals of the haloform molecules overlap with the $π$ orbitals of the fullerene molecules and the p-type orbitals of halogen atoms significantly contribute to the valence and conduction bands of C60 2CHX3. Charging with electrons and holes turns the systems to metals. Contrary to expectation, 10 to 20 % of the charge is on the haloform molecules and is thus not completely localized on the fullerene molecules. Calculations on different crystal structures of C60 2CHCl3 and C60 2CHBr3 revealed that the density of states at the Fermi energy are sensitive to the orientation of the haloform and C60 molecules. At a charging of three holes, which corresponds to the superconducting phase of pure C60 and C60 2CHX3, the calculated density of states (DOS) at the Fermi energy increases in the sequence DOS(C60) < DOS(C60 2CHCl3) < DOS(C60 2CHBr3).

description: We study the empirical realisation of the memory effect in Yang-Mills theory, especially in view of the classical vs. quantum nature of the theory. Gauge invariant analysis of memory in classical U(1) electrodynamics and its observation by total change of transverse momentum of a charge is reviewed. Gauge fixing leads to a determination of a gauge transformation at infinity. An example of Yang-Mills memory then is obtained by reinterpreting known results on interactions of a quark and a large high energy nucleus in the theory of Color Glass Condensate. The memory signal is again a kick in transverse momentum, but it is only obtained in quantum theory after fixing the gauge, after summing over an ensemble of classical processes.

Zosterops capensis capensis sundevall, 1850

description: Zosterops capensis Sundevall, 1850: 102.
 VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Habitat in regione urbis Capensis, ubi frequens videtur; non e Caffraria nobis alata.”
 CURRENT STATUS: Zosterops capensis capensis Sundevall, 1850; Zosteropidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 520), includes atmorii Sharpe, 1877, and virens Sundevall.
 TYPE MATERIAL: Sundevall (1850: 102) mentioned both male and female in his type description. His acquisition catalogue lists two specimens received from Wahlberg. Possible syntypes are two older specimens received in 1837 from Jacob Letterstedt (1796–1862), the Swedish-Norwegian Consul in Cape Town. These were identified as Sylvia palpebrosa but later corrected by Sundevall to Zosterops capensis. The two specimens figured by Levaillant (1802, plate 132) should also be part of the original type series. Gyldenstolpe (1926: 35) refers to NRM 568711 [4578] as a “type”; we treat this as a lectotype designation of this study skin of an adult male collected 13 March 1839 in Rondebosch. The five paralectotypes are: NRM 568712 [4579], a study skin of an adult female collected 21 March 1839 in Rondebosch; NRM 90140118 [4210], a male collected before 1837 in the Cape area (only “Cap” given) by J. Letterstedt; an unsexed specimen [4209] also collected before 1837 in the Cape area by Letterstedt and sent on exchange to Berlin in 1853 (but not found in the ZMB database); and finally the two specimens figured by Levaillant (1802, plate 132). Specimens collected by Levaillant in South Africa are scattered in several museum collections (Rookmaaker 1989). We have not attempted to trace Levaillant’s Zosterops specimens.
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Rondebosch, Cape Town, Western Cape Province.

Britannia Mine : back to the future-- : remediation progress at Britannia and a bright future as a consequence

description: It is over 100 years since the Britannia Mine, located 50 km north of Vancouver, B.C., commenced production of copper ore. Some 33 years after the mine closed it continues to generate an average of around 300 kg/day each of copper and zinc, together with relatively minor amounts of other metals, dissolved in some 5 million cubic metres of acid rock drainage (ARD) each year. Environmental remediation work by the Province of British Columbia was kickstarted in 2001 by the injection of $30 million by the former mine owners. Implementation of the environmental remediation work at the mine stimulated interest in development of the mine property by a B.C.-based developer and, through a well planned and considered approach, resulted in a ‘win-win’ for the both developer and the Province. This has led to an almost completely new infrastructure being developed in the Britannia Beach community, private home ownership, new development lots and the rejuvenation of the town. In addition, this renewed interest in the mine and associated community has contributed to the injection of Federal, Provincial and private funds into restoration of the iconic Mill at the BC Museum of Mining and for the future development of a mining industry interpretive centre.

Lavandula coronopifolia

description: Lavandula coronopifolia Poir., Encycl. Meth. Bot. 3: 308 (1813). –
 Type: Egypt, dans le Desert de Suez, Val de l’Egaremont, Delile s.n. (lectotype P; isolectotype K, P).
 Figure 3 .
 Description. See Rechinger (1982), Upson & Andrews (2004) and Jamzad (2012).
 Phenology. Flowers February to April, fruits March to May.
 Distribution. Occurring from the Cape Verde Islands, across northern Africa, western Asia and the western Arabian Peninsula to southern Iran (Upson & Andrews, 2004). This is the most widespread distribution of any Lavandula species. In Iran, Lavandula coronopifolia was previously known from Hormozgan and Bushehr Provinces, and this study extends this to Kerman Province further to the east (Figure 4).
 Habitat and ecology. The distribution pattern of this species follows that of the Saharo-Arabian floristic region of Iran (Zohary, 1973). It typically grows on stony slopes, along river margins and at the edges of farms and cultivated areas (Jamzad, 2012).
 Conservation status. Lavandula coronopifolia has an extent of occurrence (EOO) of
 53,467 km 2 (an estimate based on previous records of this species; Jamzad, 2012) and an area of occupancy (AOO) of 3200 km 2 in Iran. It is treated as Near Threatened (NT) in Iran, and Least Concern (LC) globally.
 Ethnobotany. No uses are recorded in Iran or elsewhere.
 Specimens examined. IRAN. South, Hormozgan Province: Gavbandi, 18 iii 1998, Jaafari & Qasemi 2906 (MIR); NW of Bandar-e Abbas, Mt Genu, 27.368608°N [27°22′06.99′′N], 56.162597°E [56°09′45.35′′E], 1 v 2015, Mirtadzadini 2904 (MIR); Kerman Prov., Mijan, 3 v 2000, Mirtadzadini 2905 (MIR).
 Recorded as Lavandula stricta in Flora Iranica (Rechinger, 1982) and Flora of Iran (Jamzad, 2012), the accepted name by priority is L. coronopifolia (Upson & Jury, 2002). The highly branched peduncles and long, often-interrupted, almost wispy flower spikes make this species readily recognisable (see Figure 3A,B). Its short bracts and calyx lobes of equal size are characteristic.
This widespread species reaches its most easterly point of its distribution in Iran.

description: A covariant formalism for Moyal deformations of gauge theory and differential equations which determine Seiberg-Witten maps is presented. Replacing the ordinary product of functions by the noncommutative Moyal product, noncommutative versions of integrable models can be constructed. We explore how a Seiberg-Witten map acts in such a framework. As a specific example, we consider a noncommutative extension of the principal chiral model.

description: Traditional methods for measurement of Polarizing Beamsplitter (PBS) parameters, especially the extinction ratio, require highly polarized light sources, alignment procedures and/or experimental parameters that change over time, such as polarization rotations. In this work, a new method is presented, which employs unpolarized light and a Faraday Mirror. It is shown that precise extinction ratio and insertion loss values can be achieved in three single-sweep measurements, without any alignment requirements or time-varying signals of any kind.

description: The gauge equivalence between the Manin-Radul and Laberge-Mathieu super KdV hierarchies is revisited. Apart from the Inami-Kanno transformation, we show that there is another gauge transformation which also possess the canonical property. We explore the relationship of these two gauge transformations from the Kupershmidt-Wilson theorem viewpoint and, as a by-product, obtain the Darboux-Backlund transformation for the Manin-Radul super KdV hierarchy. The geometrical intepretation of these transformations is also briefly discussed.
