description: Low Reynolds number turbulence in wall-bounded shear flows \emph{en route} to laminar flow takes the form of oblique, spatially-intermittent turbulent structures. In plane Couette flow, these emerge from uniform turbulence via a spatiotemporal intermittent process in which localised quasi-laminar gaps randomly nucleate and disappear. For slightly lower Reynolds numbers, spatially periodic and approximately stationary turbulent-laminar patterns predominate. The statistics of quasi-laminar regions, including the distributions of space and time scales and their Reynolds number dependence, are analysed. A smooth, but marked transition is observed between uniform turbulence and flow with intermittent quasi-laminar gaps, whereas the transition from gaps to regular patterns is more gradual. Wavelength selection in these patterns is analysed via numerical simulations in oblique domains of various sizes. Via lifetime measurements in minimal domains, and a wavelet-based analysis of wavelength predominance in a large domain, we quantify the existence and non-linear stability of a pattern as a function of wavelength and Reynolds number. We report that the preferred wavelength maximises the energy and dissipation of the large-scale flow along laminar-turbulent interfaces. This optimal behaviour is primarily due to the advective nature of the large-scale flow, with turbulent fluctuations playing only a secondary role.

Decision-making with gaussian processes: sampling strategies and monte carlo methods
Creators: name: Wilson, James
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2022

description: We study Gaussian processes and their application to decision-making in the real world. We begin by reviewing the foundations of Bayesian decision theory and show how these ideas give rise to methods such as Bayesian optimization. We investigate practical techniques for carrying out these strategies, with an emphasis on estimating and maximizing acquisition functions. Finally, we introduce pathwise approaches to conditioning Gaussian processes and demonstrate key benefits for representing random variables in this manner.

description: There are generally two types of Wick contractions in lattice QCD calculations of a correlation function --- connected and disconnected ones. The disconnected contribution is difficult to calculate and noisy, thus it is often neglected. In the context of studying tetraquarks, hadronic molecules and meson-meson scattering, we show that whenever there are both connected and singly disconnected contractions, the singly disconnected part gives the leading order contribution, and thus should never be neglected. As an explicit example, we show that information about the scalar mesons sigma, f0(980), a0(980) and kappa will be lost when neglecting the disconnected contributions.

description: This paper proposes entitymetrics to measure the impact of knowledge units. Entitymetrics highlight the importance of entities embedded in scientific literature for further knowledge discovery. In this paper, we use Metformin, a drug for diabetes, as an example to form an entity-entity citation network based on literature related to Metformin. We then calculate the network features and compare the centrality ranks of biological entities with results from Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD). The comparison demonstrates the usefulness of entitymetrics to detect most of the outstanding interactions manually curated in CTD.

description: The trend towards larger dairy herds which are confined on concrete surfaces for most of the cow's lactation has insured that bovine lameness treatment continues to be a significant part of most veterinarians' routine. A common practice to alleviate foot pain and encourage rapid recovery has been the application of various devices to the healthy claw, in an attempt to prevent the cow from bearing weight on the diseased claw until healing is complete. Published methods include attachment of a wooden block with acrylic adhesive,1 and building up the claw with a layer of plaster cast material.2 A plastic "elevator" slipper which is attached to the foot with nylon cord and tape which has a build up under the medial or lateral claw has been marketed.3

Investigating the Effect of Family Non-universal $Z^\prime$ Boson in $B \to ϕϕ$ Decay
Creators: name: Li, Ying
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Within the perturbative QCD approach, we re-calculate the branching ratio and polarization fractions of the pure annihilation decay $B \to ϕϕ$ in both the standard model (SM) and the family non-universal $Z^\prime$ model. We find that this decay is dominated by the longitudinal part, while the transverse parts are negligibly due to the absence of the $(S-P)(S+P)$-type operator. In SM, the branching ratio is predicted as $(4.4^{+0.8+0.3}_{-0.6-0.5}) \times 10^{-8}$, which is larger than the previous predictions. With an additional $Z^\prime$ boson, the branching ratio can be enhanced by a factor of 2, or reduced one half in the allowed parameters space. These results will be tested by the ongoing LHCb experiment and forthcoming Super-B experiments. Moreover, if the $Z^\prime$ boson could be directly detected at hadron collider, this decay can be used to constrain its mass and the couplings in turn.

Considerations for Replacement Heifer Housing
Creators: name: Bickert, William G.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1991

description: The calves and heifers on a dairy farm represent the future of the milking herd. Beginning at birth, the replacement animals should be the best of the lot, genetically superior to the older animals. Accomplishing this is the result of a well-managed breeding program; taking advantage of the genetic superiority requires that nutrition, health and housing are part of the management program as well. For healthy, potentially high producing replacement animals, the housing environment should provide adequate space for water, feed, resting and exercise. High humidities are especially detrimental to animal health requiring adequate ventilation to remove the moisture produced by the animals themselves. Adequate ventilation also removes other air pollutants so as to maintain suitable air quality.

Combining dynamic and static scheduling in high-level synthesis
Creators: name: Cheng, Jianyi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2023

description: Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are starting to become mainstream devices for custom computing, particularly deployed in data centres. However, using these FPGA devices requires familiarity with digital design at a low abstraction level. In order to enable software engineers without a hardware background to design custom hardware, high-level synthesis (HLS) tools automatically transform a high-level program, for example in C/C++, into a low-level hardware description. A central task in HLS is scheduling: the allocation of operations to clock cycles. The classic approach to scheduling is static, in which each operation is mapped to a clock cycle at compile time, but recent years have seen the emergence of dynamic scheduling, in which an operation’s clock cycle is only determined at run-time. Both approaches have their merits: static scheduling can lead to simpler circuitry and more resource sharing, while dynamic scheduling can lead to faster hardware when the computation has a non-trivial control flow. This thesis proposes a scheduling approach that combines the best of both worlds. My idea is to use existing program analysis techniques in software designs, such as probabilistic analysis and formal verification, to optimize the HLS hardware. First, this thesis proposes a tool named DASS that uses a heuristic-based approach to identify the code regions in the input program that are amenable to static scheduling and synthesises them into statically scheduled components, also known as static islands, leaving the top-level hardware dynamically scheduled. Second, this thesis addresses a problem of this approach: that the analysis of static islands and their dynamically scheduled surroundings are separate, where one treats the other as black boxes. We apply static analysis including dependence analysis between static islands and their dynamically scheduled surroundings to optimize the offsets of static islands for high performance. We also apply probabilistic analysis to estimate the performance of the dynamically scheduled part and use this information to optimize the static islands for high area efficiency. Finally, this thesis addresses the problem of conservatism in using sequential control flow designs which can limit the throughput of the hardware. We show this challenge can be solved by formally proving that certain control flows can be safely parallelised for high performance. This thesis demonstrates how to use automated formal verification to find out-of-order loop pipelining solutions and multi-threading solutions from a sequential program.

description: In arXiv:2206.04188, we developed a first-quantized worldline formalism for all-order computations of amplitudes in QED. In particular, we demonstrated in this framework an all-order proof of the infrared safety of the Faddeev-Kulish (FK) S-matrix for virtual exchanges in the scattering of charged fermions. In this work, we extend the worldline formalism for both the Dyson and FK S-matrix to consider further the emission and absorption of arbitrary numbers of photons. We show how Low's theorem follows in this framework and derive Weinberg's theorem for the exponentiation of IR divergences. In particular, we extend our all-order proof of the IR safety of the FK S-matrix to both virtual exchanges and real photon emissions. We argue that the worldline approach leads to a modern Wilsonian interpretation of the IR safety of the FK S-matrix and provides a novel template for the treatment of IR divergences in real-time problems. Using Grassmannian integration methods, we derive a simple and powerful result for N-th rank vacuum polarization tensors. Applications of these methods will be discussed in follow-up work.

description: It is a common belief among dairymen and practitioners that the abortion rate is higher in cows with twin pregnancies than with single pregnancies. In this prospective study, 5493 cows on 14 California dairies were followed from pregnancy diagnosis to subsequent abortion or calving. There were 196 bicornual (3.57%) and 74 unicornual (1.35%) twins diagnosed. The incidence of twins was independent of days open, but was not independent of parity or days pregnant at diagnosis. Cows with unicornual twin pregnancies had higher peak milk production than cows diagnosed with single pregnancies, and when stratified by parity, this difference was maintained in second and greater lactations. However when stratifed by dairy, the difference was not significant between cows diagnosed with singles and cows diagnosed with twins. First lactation cows diagnosed with bicornual twin pregnancies had a reduced 305 day mature equivalent milk production in comparison to those diagnosed with single pregnancies.

description: We extend a recent method to shortcut the adiabatic following to internal bosonic Josephson junctions in which the control parameter is the linear coupling between the modes. The approach is based on the mapping between the two-site Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian and a 1D effective Schrödinger-like equation, valid in the large $N$ (number of particles) limit. Our method can be readily implemented in current internal bosonic Josephson junctions and it improves substantially the production of spin-squeezing with respect to usually employed linear rampings.

description: Research on multi-class text classification of short texts mainly focuses on supervised (transfer) learning approaches, requiring a finite set of pre-defined classes which is constant over time. This work explores deep constrained clustering (CC) as an alternative to supervised learning approaches in a setting with a dynamically changing number of classes, a task we introduce as dynamic topic discovery (DTD). We do so by using pairwise similarity constraints instead of instance-level class labels which allow for a flexible number of classes while exhibiting a competitive performance compared to supervised approaches. First, we substantiate this through a series of experiments and show that CC algorithms exhibit a predictive performance similar to state-of-the-art supervised learning algorithms while requiring less annotation effort. Second, we demonstrate the overclustering capabilities of deep CC for detecting topics in short text data sets in the absence of the ground truth class cardinality during model training. Third, we showcase how these capabilities can be leveraged for the DTD setting as a step towards dynamic learning over time. Finally, we release our codebase to nurture further research in this area.

This worldwide family of Orthorrhapha flies contains almost 4,500 species (Marshall 2012, Evenhuis & Pape 2020). Rondani (1848b, 1850 c, 1851, 1863, 1868b, 1873f, 1875c) described 19 Neotropical, 13 Oriental, two Nearctic and one Palaearctic nominal species: 17 are currently considered as valid and 18 are synonyms (Fairchild 1971, Stone 1975, Wilkerson & Fairchild 1983, Chvála 1988, Coscarón & Papavero 2009). Rondani (1850 c, 1863) proposed two new replacement names and one substitute name for nominal species previously described and named by other authors. Philip (1965a), Coscarón & Philip (1967) examined the MZUN and MZUF Neotropical material without publishing any lectotype designation. Ricardo (1911) examined the MSNG type material without publishing any lectotype designation. Here, we designate a lectotype for Chrysops alter Rondani, 1875, Chrysops unizonatus Rondani, 1875, Tabanus dives Rondani, 1875, Tabanus fulvissimus Rondani, 1875, Tabanus ignobilis Rondani, 1875, Tabanus justorius Rondani, 1875. O’Hara et al. (2011: 213) incorrectly attributed two species to Rondani. Costa (1866: 39) listed one unpublished Rondani name (nomen nudum). Except for the type material of two South American species, which has been destroyed (Fairchild 1971, Leonardi et al. 1995, Mazzotti 2011), the type material has been recovered for all nominal species and is distributed among the MSNG (14), MZUF (11), MZUN (ten) and MRSN (two).

description: We simultaneously reanalyzed two decades (1984–2003) of the digital seismic archive of Northern California using waveform cross-correlation (CC) and double-difference (DD) methods to improve the resolution in hypocenter locations in the existing earthquake catalog generated at the Northern California Seismic Network (NCSN) by up to three orders of magnitude. We used a combination of ∼3 billion CC differential times measured from all correlated pairs of events that are separated by less than 5 km and ∼7 million P wave arrival-time picks listed in the NCSN bulletin. Data were inverted for precise relative locations of 311,273 events using the DD method. The relocated catalog is able to image the fine-scale structure of seismicity associated with active faults and revealed characteristic spatiotemporal structures such as streaks and repeating earthquakes. We found that 90% of the earthquakes have correlated P wave and S wave trains at common stations and that 12% are colocated repeating events. An analysis of the repeating events indicates that uncertainties at the 95% confidence level in the existing network locations are on average 0.7 km laterally and 2 km vertically. Correlation characteristics and relative location improvement are remarkably similar across most of Northern California, implying the general applicability of these techniques to image high-resolution seismicity caused by a variety of plate tectonic and anthropogenic processes. We show that consistent long-term seismic monitoring and data archiving practices are key to increase resolution in existing hypocenter catalogs and to estimate the precise location of future events on a routine basis.

description: Audio-visualization of spiking activity in a model of two interconnected cortical areas
Time-lapse movies showing depth-wise (left panel) and radial (right panel) histograms of spiking activity in a model of two interconnected cortical areas. The audio track provides an aural representation of spiking activity, with a frequency mapping to depth (lower frequencies at higher depths) and an amplitude proportional to the number of spikes. The left audio channel provides information on activity in area X, and the right channel on activity in area Y. In movies showing each region separately, the left audio channel is for INH neurons and the right channel for EXC neurons. Best listened with headphones; watch at higher speed for greater dynamical impression. Temporal resolution is 1 ms, depth resolution is 20 µm, and radial resolution is 5 µm.
Before stimulus onset at timecode t = 6000 ms, we observe spontaneous activity only, which is very sparse as can be heard. On stimulus arrival we see and hear a strong response in area X that propagates depth-wise through internal connections (notice progression to lower audio frequencies) and also propagates to area Y through long-range connections (notice progression from left to right ear). The induced activity in area Y propagates again depth-wise through internal connections and then bounces back to area X through long-range connections, closing the feed-forward/feedback loop.
This kind of audio-visualization serves to generate intuition on the propagation dynamics of neuronal activity within and across interconnected cortical microcircuits.

description: In image processing, edge detection is a valuable tool to perform the extraction of features from an image. This detection reduces the amount of information to be processed, since the redundant information (considered less relevant) can be unconsidered. The technique of edge detection consists of determining the points of a digital image whose intensity changes sharply. This changes are due to the discontinuities of the orientation on a surface for example. A well known method of edge detection is the Difference of Gaussians (DoG). The method consists of subtracting two Gaussians, where a kernel has a standard deviation smaller than the previous one. The convolution between the subtraction of kernels and the input image results in the edge detection of this image. This paper introduces a method of extracting edges using DoG with kernels based on the q-Gaussian probability distribution, derived from the q-statistic proposed by Constantino Tsallis. To demonstrate the method's potential, we compare the introduced method with the traditional DoG using Gaussians kernels. The results showed that the proposed method can extract edges with more accurate details.

S-duality as Fourier transform for arbitrary $ε_1,ε_2$

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The AGT relations reduce S-duality to the modular transformations of conformal blocks. It was recently conjectured that for the four-point conformal block the modular transform up to the non-perturbative contributions can be written in form of the ordinary Fourier transform when $β\equiv-ε_1/ε_2=1$. Here we extend this conjecture to general values of $ε_1,ε_2$. Namely, we argue that for a properly normalized four-point conformal block the S-duality is perturbatively given by the Fourier transform for arbitrary values of the deformation parameters $ε_1,ε_2$. The conjecture is based on explicit perturbative computations in the first few orders of the string coupling constant $g^2\equiv-ε_1ε_2$ and hypermultiplet masses.

description: We derive the equations of quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) based on the finite amplitude method (FAM) with the Hartree-Fock+BCS (HF+BCS) single-particle states, and calculate the magnetic dipole (M1) transition for deformed gadolinium isotopes. Our QRPA calculation shows both large spin-flip transitions in the 5 to 10 MeV excitation energy and the low energy orbital transition that would correspond to the M1 scissors mode observed in nuclear experiments. Then, we calculate neutron capture reactions based on the statistical Hauser-Feshbach theory with the photoabsorption cross sections given by QRPA. We find that the capture cross section is enhanced due to the contribution from the low energy M1 transition although the calculated capture cross section still underestimates the experimental data. This issue in the calculated capture cross section could be improved by uncertainties of low energy E1 transition neglected in our QRPA calculation.

description: Audio-visualization of spiking activity in a model of two interconnected cortical areas
Time-lapse movies showing depth-wise (left panel) and radial (right panel) histograms of spiking activity in a model of two interconnected cortical areas. The audio track provides an aural representation of spiking activity, with a frequency mapping to depth (lower frequencies at higher depths) and an amplitude proportional to the number of spikes. The left audio channel provides information on activity in area X, and the right channel on activity in area Y. In movies showing each region separately, the left audio channel is for INH neurons and the right channel for EXC neurons. Best listened with headphones. Temporal resolution is 1 ms, depth resolution is 20 µm, and radial resolution is 5 µm.
Before stimulus onset at timecode t = 6000 ms, we observe spontaneous activity only, which is very sparse as can be heard. On stimulus arrival we see and hear a strong response in area X that propagates depth-wise through internal connections (notice progression to lower audio frequencies) and also propagates to area Y through long-range connections (notice progression from left to right ear). The induced activity in area Y propagates again depth-wise through internal connections and then bounces back to area X through long-range connections, closing the feed-forward/feedback loop.
This kind of audio-visualization serves to generate intuition on the propagation dynamics of neuronal activity within and across interconnected cortical microcircuits.

description: Carbon ion therapy have the ability to overcome the limitation of convertional radiotherapy due to its most energy deposition in selective depth, usually called Bragg peak, which results in increased biological effectiness. During carbon ion therapy, lots positron emitters such as $^{11}$C, $^{15}$O, $^{10}$C are generated in irradiated tissues by nuclear reactions. Immediately after patient irradiation, PET scanners can be used to measure the spatial distribution of positron emitters, which can track the carbon beam to the tissue. In this study, we designed and evaluated an dual-plate in-room PET scanner to monitor patient dose in carbon ion therapy, which is based on GATE simulation platform. A dual-plate PET is designed to avoid interference with the carbon beam line and with patient positioning. Its performance was compared with that of four-head and full-ring PET scanners. The dual-plate, four-head and full-ring PET scanners consisted of 30, 60, 60 detector modules, respectively, with a 36 cm distance between directly opposite detector modules for dose deposition measurements. Each detector module was consisted of a 24$\times$24 array of 2$\times2\times$18 mm$^{3}$ LYSO pixels coupled to a Hamamatsu H8500 PMT. To esitmate the production yield of positron emitters, a 10$\times15\times$15 cm$^{3}$ cuboid PMMA phantom was irradiated with 172, 200, 250 AMeV $^{12}$C beams. 3D images of the activity distribution of the three type scanners are produced by an iterative reconstruction algorithm. By comparing the longitudinal profile of positron emitters, measured along the carbon beam path, we concluded that the development of a dual-plate PET scanner is feasible to monitor the dose distribution for carbon ion therapy.

description: Chrysops unizonatus Rondani, 1875
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1875c: 459.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ Insula Bonae Fortunae (Borneo), Provincia Sarawak [Bona Fortuna Island, Sarawak Province, Borneo]” (Rondani 1875c: 421).
TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, lectotype (MSNG): Sarawak / Typus / unizonatus Rond. / Chrysops unizonatus, n° 73.
PARALECTOTYPE NOT EXAMINED: 1 ♀ (MZUF: Box 71): Chrysops unizonatus n. / Sarawak / [no identification number].
CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Chrysops fixissimus Walker, 1856 (Stone 1977: 45).
REMARKS: Rondani (1875c: 459) described Chrysops unizonatus from just the female sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, despite there being two specimens in the type series found in this study, from material collected by G. Doria and O. Beccari. Guiglia (1957: 194) reported a “ holotype ” in the MSNG without knowing of an additional female in the MZUF, which brings the original syntype series to two specimens. In his original description Rondani did not explicitly refer to a single specimen therefore Guiglia’s “ holotype ” specimen must be considered as the lectotype (I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 74.6). Raineri & Rey (1996: 55) also reported a single specimen in the MSNG. The additional female in the MZUF not examined by Guiglia is a paralectotype.

description: There is a considerable debate between research groups applying the two stage clonal expansion model for lung cancer risk estimation, whether radon exposure affects initiation and transformation or promotion. The objective of the present study is to quantify the effects of radon progeny on these stages with biophysical models. For this purpose, numerical models of mutation induction and clonal growth were applied in order to estimate how initiation, transformation and promotion rates depend on tissue dose rate. It was found that rates of initiation and transformation increase monotonically with dose rate, while effective promotion rate decreases with time, but increases in a supralinear fashion with dose rate. Despite the uncertainty of the results due to the lack of experimental data, present study suggests that effects of radon exposure on both mutational events and clonal growth are significant, and should be considered in epidemiological analyses applying mathematical models of carcinogenesis.

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1991

description: Leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonotic disease caused by infection with the spirochete bacterium Leptospira interrogans. L. interrogans is further divided on the basis of antigenic relatedness into serovars. Approximately 200 different serovars of L. interrogans have been identified and within a geographic area, certain serovars are prevalent and become adapted to a particular maintenance host (Table 1). In the United States the serovars of L. interrogans most commonly associated with bovine leptospirosis are hardjo, pomona and grippotyphosa. Serovars icterohaemorrhagiae, canicola, and bratislava are also occasionally associated with leptospirosis in cattle.

description: We have developed a double-difference algorithm to relocate earthquakes recorded at global seismic networks, using differential arrival times for first and later arriving regional and global phases to invert for the vectors connecting the hypocenters. Differential times are formed from global seismic bulletins and are accurately measured on similar seismograms by time domain waveform cross correlation. We evaluate the performance of this spherical, multiphase double-difference algorithm using three-dimensional regional-scale synthetic data and two sets of earthquake data in different tectonic settings. The first includes 3783 intermediate depth earthquakes that occurred between 1964 and 2000 in the subducting Nazca plate beneath northern Chile, where the relocated seismicity confirms a narrowly spaced double seismic zone previously imaged with temporary local seismic data. Residual statistics and comparison with accurately known locations indicate mean relative location errors at the 90% confidence level of 2.4 km laterally and 1.8 km vertically. Later events typically constrained by cross-correlation data have errors of 1.6 km laterally and 1.4 km vertically. The second data set includes 75 crustal earthquakes in the 1999 Izmit and Düzce, Turkey, aftershock sequences, where the double-difference solutions image orientation and dip of individual fault segments that are consistent with focal mechanisms and near-surface information. Fault complexity likely causes a low level of waveform similarity in this aftershock sequence and thus generates fewer correlated events compared to the Chile earthquakes. Differences between the double-difference locations and corresponding locations in global seismicity catalogs (Earthquake Data Report, EDR; International Seismological Centre, ISC; Engdahl-Hilst-Buland, EHB) are typically greater than 10 km. We evaluate the potential of cross-correlation and double-difference methods to improve hypocenter locations on a global scale.
