description: Blockchain technology provides a private, secure, transparent decentralized exchange of data. Also, blockchain is not limited to a particular area, but it has a wide range of applications and can be integrated into a variety of Internet interactive systems. For example, the Internet of Things (IoT), supply chain tracking, Electronic Health Records (EHR), digital forensics, identity management, trustless payments, and other key business elements will all benefit from its implementation. Next layer solutions such as Ethereum 2.0, Polkadot, Cardano, and other Web 3.0 technologies provide developers versatility. Moreover, these platforms utilize smart contracts which are similar to standard, traditionalized software during development but offer key utilities to end-users such as online wallets, secure data with transparent rules. Blockchain is receiving a lot of attention in educational technology (EduTech) as it aims to achieve a more transparent and multipurpose educational system. In addition to smart contract technology which defines how data should be registered, gathered and processed, blockchain can be used as an IoT intermediary for mobile usage. Therefore, we implemented an educational learning platform powered by blockchain technology to examine feasibility in industry and academic environment. In essence, this is a web application which is adapted to mobile platform and connected to blockchain for crucial data exchanges. In this paper we want to emphasize the potential of blockchain technology in multiple sectors as well as the need to really understand the underlying principles which are allowing disruptability of traditional centralized software solutions.

description: We discuss results for n-gluon correlations that form the basis of the Glasma flux tube picture of early times in heavy ion collisions. Our formalism is valid to all orders in perturbation theory at leading logarithmic accuracy in x and includes both QCD bremsstrahlung and the many body screening and recombination effects that are important at large parton densities. Long range rapidity correlations, as seen in the near-side ridge in heavy ion collisions, are a chronometer of these early time strong color field dynamics. They also contain information on how radial flow develops in heavy ion collisions.

Neoplatonismo e spiritualismo nella Firenze di fine Quattrocento: Giovanni Nesi
Creators: name: Garfagnini, Gian Carlo
Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2009

description: Giovanni Nesi’s experience of life and thought show the complexity of cultural and political situation in the middle fifteenth-century Florence: from Donato Acciaiuoli’s civic and ethic aristotelianism to Marsilio Ficino’s neoplatonism and Girolamo Savonarola’s spirituality. Nesi’s Oraculum de novo saeculo speaks of Savonarola as ‘Socrates Ferrarese’ sent by God to cure Florence’s ills with his salubrious learning for its reformation. The meeting of Savonarolan reformation of the city and of Ficinian philosophical instances is the decisive principle of Nesi’s (and laurentians intellectuals’) mental attitude against the crisis of Florentine society after Lorenzo de’ Medici’s death and the liberty’s defeat.

Different Types of Conditional Expectation and the Lueders - von Neumann Quantum Measurement

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: In operator algebra theory, a conditional expectation is usually assumed to be a projection map onto a sub-algebra. In the paper, a further type of conditional expectation and an extension of the Lueders - von Neumann measurement to observables with continuous spectra are considered; both are defined for a single operator and become a projection map only if they exist for all operators. Criteria for the existence of the different types of conditional expectation and of the extension of the Lueders - von Neumann measurement are presented, and the question whether they coincide is studied. All this is done in the general framework of Jordan operator algebras. The examples considered include the type I and type II operator algebras, the standard Hilbert space model of quantum mechanics, and a no-go result concerning the conditional expectation of observables that satisfy the canonical commutator relation.

description: We define a new class of random walk processes which maximize entropy. This maximal entropy random walk is equivalent to generic random walk if it takes place on a regular lattice, but it is not if the underlying lattice is irregular. In particular, we consider a lattice with weak dilution. We show that the stationary probability of finding a particle performing maximal entropy random walk localizes in the largest nearly spherical region of the lattice which is free of defects. This localization phenomenon, which is purely classical in nature, is explained in terms of the Lifshitz states of a certain random operator.

We construct appropriate sequential sources for the determination of the two dominant form factors GE0 and GM1 as well as a sequential source that isolates the subdominant electric quadrupole form factor GE2. We calculate the Omega baryon magnetic moment, mu_omega, and electric charge radius, ^2, and compare to experiment, for the case of mu_omega, and to other lattice calculations.

description: Dynamically driven interacting quantum many-body systems have the potential to exhibit properties that defy the laws of equilibrium statistical mechanics. A widely studied model is the impulsively driven antiferromagnetic Mott insulator, which is predicted to realize exotic transient phenomena including dynamical phase transitions into thermally forbidden states and highly non-thermal magnon distributions. However such far-from-equilibrium regimes, where conventional time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau descriptions fail, are experimentally challenging to prepare and to probe especially in solid state systems. Here we use a combination of time-resolved second harmonic optical polarimetry and coherent magnon spectroscopy to interrogate $n$-type photo-doping induced ultrafast magnetic order parameter dynamics in the Mott insulator Sr$_2$IrO$_4$. We uncover an unusual far-from-equilibrium critical regime in which the divergences of the magnetic correlation length and relaxation time are decoupled. This violation of conventional thermal critical behavior arises from the interplay of photo-doping and non-thermal magnon population induced demagnetization effects. Our findings, embodied in a non-equilibrium "phase diagram", provide a blueprint for engineering the out-of-equilibrium properties of quantum matter, with potential applications to terahertz spintronics technologies.

New dynamical system approach to Palatini $f(R)$ theories and its application to exponential gravity

description: The approach of dynamical systems is a useful tool to investigate the cosmological history that follows from modified theories of gravity. It provides qualitative information on the typical background solutions in a parametrized family of models, through the computation of the fixed points and their characters (attractor, repeller or saddle), allowing, for instance, the knowledge of which regions on the parameter space of the models generate the desired radiation, matter and dark energy dominated eras. However, the traditional proposal for building dynamical systems for an $f(R)$ theory in the Palatini formalism assumes the invertibility of a function that depends on the specific Lagrangian functional form, which is not true, for example, for the particular theory of exponential gravity ($f(R)=R-αR_*(1-e^{-R/R_*})$). In this work, we propose an alternative choice of variables to treat $f(R)$ models in their Palatini formulation, which do include exponential gravity. We derive some general results that can be applied to a given model of interest and present a complete description of the phase space for exponential gravity. We show that Palatini exponential gravity theories have a final attractor critical point with an effective equation of state parameter $w_{\text{eff}} = -1$ (for $α>1$), $w_{\text{eff}} = -2/3$ (for $α=1$) and $w_{\text{eff}} = 0$ (for $α<1$). Finally, our analytical results are compared with numerical solutions of the field equations.

description: We propose a novel domain-specific generative pre-training (DS-GPT) method for text generation and apply it to the product titleand review summarization problems on E-commerce mobile display.First, we adopt a decoder-only transformer architecture, which fitswell for fine-tuning tasks by combining input and output all to-gether. Second, we demonstrate utilizing only small amount of pre-training data in related domains is powerful. Pre-training a languagemodel from a general corpus such as Wikipedia or the CommonCrawl requires tremendous time and resource commitment, andcan be wasteful if the downstream tasks are limited in variety. OurDSGPT is pre-trained on a limited dataset, the Chinese short textsummarization dataset (LCSTS). Third, our model does not requireproduct-related human-labeled data. For title summarization task,the state of art explicitly uses additional background knowledgein training and predicting stages. In contrast, our model implic-itly captures this knowledge and achieves significant improvementover other methods, after fine-tuning on the public Taobao.comdataset. For review summarization task, we utilize JD.com in-housedataset, and observe similar improvement over standard machinetranslation methods which lack the flexibility of fine-tuning. Ourproposed work can be simply extended to other domains for a widerange of text generation tasks.
The biological half-life of inorganic mercury in the Dungeness crab Cancer magister Dana
Creators: name: Sloan, John Peter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The biological half-life of inorganic mercury in the Dungeness crab, Cancer magister Dana, was determined experimentally to be about 25 days. Crabs were exposed to mercury solutions, sacrificed after varying periods of time, and mercury determinations of whole body homogenates made with an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The simple and widely used negative exponential equation for calculating biological half-life was not entirely adequate for describing the mercury elimination process. A better description was obtained using a nonlinear least-squares fit of an equation describing elimination at different speeds from two types of tissues. A further model allowed for recycling of mercury that was eliminated, and gave marginally better descriptions in some cases.

description: We study fluctuations of the number of photocounts measured by an ideal photodetector illuminated by light scattered in an amplifying disordered medium, below the threshold for random lasing. We show that the variance of fluctuations and their correlation function carry information about fluctuating properties of the medium. A direct link is established between the fluctuations of the number of photocounts due to the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and the dimensionless conductance g of the medium. Our results suggest a possibility of probing amplifying disordered media by analyzing statistics of their ASE, without illuminating them from outside by a probe beam.

Circe, la «virtus loci», il determinismo nel De incantationibus di Pomponazzi
Creators: name: Perrone Compagni, Vittoria
Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2006

description: This paper focuses on the threefold ‘physical’ explanation of the homeric myth of Circe, which Pomponazzi’s De incantationibus opposed to Christian demonologists. Pomponazzi aimed to prove that men’s metamorphosis into animals as well as the so-called ‘miracles’ are not the effect of demons’ action, but depend on the movements of the stars. Celestial bodies execute the ‘divine’ (but impersonal) design of eternal preservation of all sublunary species. The hierarchical submission of Nature to universal causality includes also human acts, being man’s soul forma materialis (according to De immortalitate animae). Therefore, determinism was already accepted by Pomponazzi since 1516.

Minimising Existence. Or How to Stop Worrying and Love the Barcan Formulae
Creators: name: Ciprotti, Nicola
Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2006

description: The paper is intended to provide a full-scale defence of the infamous Barcan Formulae. Not only do I put forth some arguments, both semantic and metaphysical, against recent criticism; I also take pains at supplying some rationale in favour of the formal semantics underlying the Formulae, namely Possibilist quantification. Such a task is carried out through an argument for Compositional Nihilism, according to which nothing but mereological simples ever exists, and consequently through an informal sketch of the metaphysics of possible worlds grounded upon Compositional Nihilism. The paper closes by surveying the main reasons why the account championed here isn’t defective with respect to other possibilist accounts of existence and modality presently on stage.

description: We present a detailed model of stray-light suppression in the spectrometer channels of the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS) on the SOHO spacecraft. The control of diffracted and scattered stray light from the bright solar disk is one of the most important tasks of a coronagraph. We compute the fractions of light that diffract past the UVCS external occulter and non-specularly pass into the spectrometer slit. The diffracted component of the stray light depends on the finite aperture of the primary mirror and on its figure. The amount of non-specular scattering depends mainly on the micro-roughness of the mirror. For reasonable choices of these quantities, the modeled stray-light fraction agrees well with measurements of stray light made both in the laboratory and during the UVCS mission. The models were constructed for the bright H I Lyman alpha emission line, but they are applicable to other spectral lines as well.

La scomparsa delle impressioni. Osservazioni gnoseologiche sulle nozioni di espressione, impressione, materia e forma nell’Estetica di Benedetto Croce
Creators: name: Caniglia, Guido
Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2009

description: The main theme of this paper will be the elimination of the sensible features of our experience from the philosophical account of what it means to know something. The textual source on which we will focus our attention is Benedetto Croce’s Estetica come scienza dell’espressione e linguistica generale. Besides an epistemological dimension (impressions, sensible content, sensation), what is sensible in our experience has also an ontological connotation (matter, content, facts). According to Croce, neither of them can be the basis of our knowledge. What we mean when we say to know something is neither that we have impressions nor that we possess sensations, but rather that we have a representation of that thing. In this way, the sensible features of our experience are ruled out from its philosophical account and are replaced through spiritual activities pertaining to the practical realm of the Spirit.

description: I propose an interpretation of Bataille’s work using myth as the main category, conceived as an enduring element in the perpetual constitution of sense. This kind of narration, with its inherent circular temporality, aptly fills the void of sense left by the ‘end of History’: for Bataille a new foundation of the community is possible on this mythical ground. The failure of this project will lead him to his following works, in which he will give birth to the new myth of the ‘absence of myth’.

description: Here, a comprehensive theory of the couplings between a nanocavity and exciton complexes in a quantum dot is developed, which successfully predicts the spectral triplet in the strong coupling regime that has been observed in several experiments but is unexpected according to conventional cavity quantum electrodynamics. The quantum anti-Zeno effect is found to play an essential role in the appearance of the central peak in the triplet under a low-excitation regime. The effect of hyperfine interactions is also discussed, which results in the cavity-mediated mixing of bright and dark exciton states. These results provide significant insights into solid-state cavity quantum electrodynamics.

description: A key question in cooperative game theory is that of coalitional stability, usually captured by the notion of the \emph{core}--the set of outcomes such that no subgroup of players has an incentive to deviate. However, some coalitional games have empty cores, and any outcome in such a game is unstable. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of stabilizing a coalitional game by using external payments. We consider a scenario where an external party, which is interested in having the players work together, offers a supplemental payment to the grand coalition (or, more generally, a particular coalition structure). This payment is conditional on players not deviating from their coalition(s). The sum of this payment plus the actual gains of the coalition(s) may then be divided among the agents so as to promote stability. We define the \emph{cost of stability (CoS)} as the minimal external payment that stabilizes the game. We provide general bounds on the cost of stability in several classes of games, and explore its algorithmic properties. To develop a better intuition for the concepts we introduce, we provide a detailed algorithmic study of the cost of stability in weighted voting games, a simple but expressive class of games which can model decision-making in political bodies, and cooperation in multiagent settings. Finally, we extend our model and results to games with coalition structures.

description: Die Entwicklung neuer elektroaktiver organischer Materialien ist ein wichtiges Forschungsgebiet für den Einsatz in Batterien für Energiespeicher oder Elektromobilität. Diese Arbeit befasst sich daher mit der Untersuchung palladiumkatalysierter C S Kreuzkupplungen zur Synthese von Thienoacenen und Polysulfiden.Im ersten Teil wurde durch die kinetische Untersuchung der C-S-Kupplung eines Thiophenderivates mit Kaliumthioacetat die reduktive Eliminierung als geschwindigkeits-bestimmender Schritt des Katalysezyklus erhalten. Zusätzlich stellte sich ein elektronenärmerer Ligand als überlegen heraus. Im zweiten Teil wurde mithilfe der C S Kupplung ein bifunktionelles AB-Monomer synthetisiert, das anschließend auch in der Mikrowelle erfolgreich polymerisiert wurde. Im dritten Teil wurden mithilfe von C S Kupplungen zwei neue Thienoacene und ihre oxidierten quinoiden Strukturen synthetisiert und auf ihre optoelektronischen Eigenschaften untersucht. Dabei passten die erhaltenen Daten gut in eine Reihe ähnlicher Verbindungen. Mithilfe von EPR-Messungen wurde ein diradikaler Charakter der quinoiden Strukturen festgestellt.
description: The development of new electroactive organic materials is an important field of research for the use in batteries for energy storage or electromobility. This work therefore deals with the investigation of palladium-catalyzed C S cross-coupling reactions for the synthesis of thienoacenes and polysulfides.In the first part, the kinetic investigation of the C S coupling of a thiophene derivative with potassium thioacetate showed the reductive elimination as the rate-determining step of the catalytic cycle. In addition, a ligand with fewer electrons proved to be superior. In the second part, C S coupling was used to synthesize a bifunctional AB monomer, which was subsequently polymerized successfully also in the microwave. In the third part, two new thienoacenes and their oxidized quinoid structures were synthesized using C S couplings and investigated for their optoelectronic properties. The data obtained fitted well into a series of similar compounds. EPR measurements revealed a diradical character of the quinoid structures.
Il pensiero fenomenologico secondo Plessner

description: Helmuth Plessner refused phenomenology as a doctrine and rigorous method and its identification with philosophy, but deemed it necessary to assume a «phenomenological attitude» in the research on human beings. Only a phenomenological attitude can overcome the soul-body dualism and allow the recognition of «material a priori» as a category of organic reality. The intuition of essences, together with other methodological instruments, can help to complete our knowledge and to find empirical reality beyond physical-mathematical description.

description: A research to point out the different notion of family that Rousseau delineates in the second Discours and in the Essai sur l’origine des langues. In the first case family is something acquired, it’s the result of a revolution, of a gap, and it presupposes technical development and psychological complexity; in the second case family is something natural, it’s primitive, extremely rough, and it implies a vision of the state of nature, and of the man, that we can not identify with the vision delineated by Rousseau in his mains works.

description: Machine learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) methods are being adopted rapidly, especially in computer network security, such as fraud detection, network anomaly detection, intrusion detection, and much more. However, the lack of transparency of ML and DL based models is a major obstacle to their implementation and criticized due to its black-box nature, even with such tremendous results. Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a promising area that can improve the trustworthiness of these models by giving explanations and interpreting its output. If the internal working of the ML and DL based models is understandable, then it can further help to improve its performance. The objective of this paper is to show that how XAI can be used to interpret the results of the DL model, the autoencoder in this case. And, based on the interpretation, we improved its performance for computer network anomaly detection. The kernel SHAP method, which is based on the shapley values, is used as a novel feature selection technique. This method is used to identify only those features that are actually causing the anomalous behaviour of the set of attack/anomaly instances. Later, these feature sets are used to train and validate the autoencoder but on benign data only. Finally, the built SHAP_Model outperformed the other two models proposed based on the feature selection method. This whole experiment is conducted on the subset of the latest CICIDS2017 network dataset. The overall accuracy and AUC of SHAP_Model is 94% and 0.969, respectively.

description: To evaluate the efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in pain management in subjects with oncologic process. Several databases were searched in December 2023. Randomized Controlled Trials that evaluated the application of tDCS on pain in adults with oncologic process were selected. Random-effects meta-analysis with 95%CI were used to quantify the change scores in pain between tDCS and control groups. Six trials with 482 participants were included. There were significant differences in favor of tDCS in pain intensity in surgical oncology patients compared to sham stimulation (p < 0.001). Non-surgical patients showed no significant effect. Meta-regression analysis in this group of patients showed that the timing of the evaluation moderated the effect of tDCS on pain (p= .042), with longer time after tDCS being associated with greater pain reduction. The application of a-tDCS for at least 20 min, with a current density higher than 0.057 mA/cm2, applied over M1, left DLPFC, or the insula area, between 2–5 sessions appears to be an effective and safe treatment of pain in surgical oncology patients compared to sham. The tDCS appears to be more effective for high-intensity pain, and in the long term. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) appears to significantly reduce pain in surgical oncology patients.The efficacy of tDCS on pain appears to be greater over a longer period of time.tDCS appears to be more effective for high-intensity pain. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) appears to significantly reduce pain in surgical oncology patients.

description: The connection of Gribov's confinement scenario in Coulomb gauge with the center vortex picture of confinement is investigated. For this purpose we assume a vacuum wave functional which models the infrared properties of the theory and in particular shows strict confinement, i.e. an area law of the Wilson loop. We isolate the center vortex content of this wave functional by standard lattice methods and investigate their contributions to various static propagators of the Hamilton approach to Yang-Mills theory in Coulomb gauge. We find that the infrared properties of these quantities, in particular the infrared divergence of the ghost form factor, are dominated by center vortices.

Model of dispersal of fry of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in Babine Lake
Creators: name: Simms, Steven Eric
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A computer simulation model was written to mimic the natural movement of salmon fry in Babine Lake, B.C.. Simulated distributions of fry were compared with field observations taken in 3 sampling periods during the summer and fall in 1967, 1968, 1971, and 1972, in order to evaluate the model's validity. Simulated distributions of fry, when random and heavily-biased movements were combined, were in reasonable accord with naturally observed distributions of fry in periods 1 and 2. In period 3 the model successfully produced a distribution similar to that naturally observed when the fry were programmed to undergo only random movement. Factors which might account for the various distributions of fry in different periods include the effects of current and innate behavioral responses of the fry to limnological conditions. In constructing my model, I assumed that fry travelled at speeds observed in the laboratory in still water. The model of fry dispersal in Babine Lake could be improved as more information is collected on the limnology of the lake and on fry behavior. In addition, the model has much generality and the techniques used may be applied to the dispersal of other organisms and to other lakes.

description: Motivated by the possibility of the formation of CP-odd domains in heavy ion collisions, we investigate the effects of CP violation on the chiral transition within the linear sigma model with two flavors of quarks. We also study how the CP-odd system is affected by the presence of a strong magnetic field, that is presumably generated in a non-central heavy ion collision. We find that both ingredients play an important role, influencing drastically the nature of the phase transition and the critical temperature.
