Deep learning based holographic microscope image focusing and object classification
Creators: name: Peter, Angi
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: During the past decade the huge advancements in terms of computational power and
 resources implied the exponential development of the different hardware demanding machine
 learning techniques. One of the most popular area in this field are the different,
 biologically inspired microscopic image processing methods. Here two important steps
 are finding the proper focus plane for a sharp image and additionally segmenting or detecting
 the most important areas (objects) on the images. This is the situation also with
 the Digital holographic microscopy (DHM), which is a proper technique for the imaging
 of three dimensional objects, because — compared to conventional microscopes — it
 has better depth-of-field through allowing the reconstruction of a volume with multiple
 in-focus planes.
 In this thesis work I propose deep learning based solutions to firstly find the focus
 planes of the objects on the DHM recordings, and then segment their locations with their
 types as well. For these, I implemented different kinds of convolutional neural networks
 using the Python programming language and the PyTorch framework.
 Regarding the focus distance estimation, after the architecture of the network has been
 designed and implemented, 3 different setup was inspected for finding an optimal solution:
 The target distances (direction - positive and negative distances included, absolute
 - absolute value of the distances), the activation function in the last layer (hyperbolic
 tangent or sigmoid) and the inclusion or exclusion of the phase images into the input of
 the net.
 Concerning the image segmentation, the task here was more complex. Here the available
 labelled images for the ground truth were not accurate enough, thus I firstly developed an
 image processing tool, which had two main functionalities: image augmentation through
 transformations and semi-automatic image labelling. Then, as the next step a simple object
 segmentor net (SOSN) was implemented, which was developed to simply segment the
 objects without classifying them. Following that, using the results of the SOSN, it was
 adapted to also segment the types of the objects with different colors, this was the simple
 semantic segmentor net (SSSN). And as the last steps, I implemented two variations of
 the state-of-the-art U-Net architectures, for being able to better evaluate the results of
 the SSSN and also gain ideas based on the differences for its further development.

description: We study model near-critical polymer gelling systems made of gluten proteins dispersions stabilized at different distances from the gel point. We impose different shear rates and follow the time evolution of the stress. For sufficiently large shear rates, an intermediate stress overshoot is measured before reaching the steady state. We evidence self-similarity of the stress overshoot as a function of the applied shear rate for samples with various distances from the gel point, which is related to the elastic energy stored by the samples, as for dense systems close to the jamming transition. In concordance with the findings for glassy and jammed systems, we also measure that the stress after flow cessation decreases as a power law with time with a characteristic relaxation time that depends on the shear rate previously imposed. These features revealed in non-linear rheology could be the signature of a mesoscopic dynamics, which would depend on the extent of gelation.

"Knowledge was their treasure": applying KO approaches to archaeological research
Creators: name: Lee, Edmund

Subjects: Knowledge Organization Systems,

Archeology

description: The main purpose of the first part of this paper is to present knowledge organisation as applied in archaeological research in the United Kingdom. The intention is to provide a specific case study of how knowledge organisation within one discipline can be a stimulus for the generation of new factual knowledge and new evidence-based narratives, an example that hopefully can find broader value in the discussion of KO as a discipline. The second part presents some examples of new narratives in heritage, benefiting from the traditions of good knowledge organisation systems. It also notes how this work can feed back into developing the need for improvements in knowledge organisation in the sector. The third part then reviews one particular body of knowledge in use in UK archaeology – the use in England of published research frameworks to co-ordinate archaeological research – as an example of how improved knowledge organisation may benefit society. It reports work in progress to develop a prototype for better organisation of a knowledge base of research questions. This work has the potential to increase the efficiency of research in the sector, and so to maximise the public benefit gained – a better understanding, a new and relevant narrative, of their past.

description: We study the efficiency of several Asymmetrical Flow Field-Flow Fractionation (AF4) techniques to investigate the self-associating wheat gluten proteins. We compare the use of a denaturing buffer including sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and a mild chaotropic solvent, water/ethanol, as eluent, on a model gluten sample. Through a thorough analysis of the data obtained from coupled light scattering detectors, and with the identification of molecular composition of the eluted protein, we evidence co-elution events in several conditions. We show that the focus step used in conventional AF4 with the SDS buffer leads to the formation of aggregates that co-elute with monomeric proteins. By contrast, a frit-inlet device enables the fractionation of individual wheat proteins in the SDS buffer. Interestingly conventional AF4, using water/ethanol as eluent, is an effective method for fractionating gluten proteins and their complex dynamic assemblies which involve weak forces and are composed of both monomeric and polymeric proteins.

Schur Quantization and Complex Chern-Simons theory
Creators: name: Gaiotto, Davide
name: Teschner, Joerg
Publisher: name: Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron, DESY, Hamburg
Year: 2024

description: Any four-dimensional Supersymmetric Quantum Field Theory with eight supercharges can be associated to a certain complex symplectic manifold called the 'K-theoretic Coulomb branch' of the theory. The collection of K-theoretic Coulomb branches include many complex phase spaces of great interest, including in particular the 'character varieties' of complex flat connections on a Riemann surface. The SQFT definition endows K-theoretic Coulomb branches with a variety of canonical structures, including a deformation quantization. In this paper we introduce a canonical 'Schur' quantization of K-theoretic Coulomb branches. It is defined by a variant of the Gelfand-Naimark-Segal construction, applied to protected Schur correlation functions of half-BPS line defects. Schur quantization produces an actual quantization of the complex phase space. As a concrete application, we apply this construction to character varieties in order to quantize Chern-Simons gauge theory with a complex gauge group. Other applications include the definition of a new quantum deformation of the Lorentz group, and the solution of certain spectral problems via dualities.

description: The use of digital photogrammetric techniques to document archaeological layers and features has become increasingly common in recent years. Photomodeling software such as PhotoScan uses multiple photographs of an object to model its geometry. In addition to providing more detailed topographical data than those acquired using a total station alone, such photomodeling offers potential solutions to problems posed by complex urban excavations. A deep sounding at the site of Sant'Omobono in Rome's Forum Boarium presented special challenges for topographical documentation. The depth of the sounding and the prospect of excavating below the water table necessitated the installation of steel sheeting to prevent slumping and collapse of the scarp. The initial height of the sheets above the sounding blocked sight lines and precluded the regular use of a total station to document excavation levels. At deeper levels within the sounding, the presence of sump holes, pumps, and occasionally small amounts of standing water presented additional challenges to the creation of photomodels. The creation of photogrammetric models that included fixed points around the excavation area permitted not only the calculation of real elevation data but also the recording of detailed topographic data for each stratigraphic unit thus modeled. The resulting photomodels can also be used in the creation of traditional transparency overlay plans. Photogrammetric documentation in a single context recording system such as that used at Sant'Omobono has the further advantage of allowing the reconstruction of detailed vertical sections, not only along the limits of the excavated area, but also along any axis within it. Photomodeling also has a potential analytical value in allowing more accurate calculation of sediment-volume estimates than is possible using traditional techniques. The use of photomodeling at Sant'Omobono provides a model for dealing with the specific topographic challenges of urban excavations and for richer data collection in all excavation contexts.

FETCH: A Memory-Efficient Replay Approach for Continual Learning in Image Classification

description: Class-incremental continual learning is an important area of research, as static deep learning methods fail to adapt to changing tasks and data distributions. In previous works, promising results were achieved using replay and compressed replay techniques. In the field of regular replay, GDumb achieved outstanding results but requires a large amount of memory. This problem can be addressed by compressed replay techniques. The goal of this work is to evaluate compressed replay in the pipeline of GDumb. We propose FETCH, a two-stage compression approach. First, the samples from the continual datastream are encoded by the early layers of a pre-trained neural network. Second, the samples are compressed before being stored in the episodic memory. Following GDumb, the remaining classification head is trained from scratch using only the decompressed samples from the reply memory. We evaluate FETCH in different scenarios and show that this approach can increase accuracy on CIFAR10 and CIFAR100. In our experiments, simple compression methods (e.g., quantization of tensors) outperform deep autoencoders. In the future, FETCH could serve as a baseline for benchmarking compressed replay learning in constrained memory scenarios.

description: Utilizing a helical magnet profile to enhance axion-photon conversion showed great promise in laboratory searches for high axion masses. We extend the mechanism, known as the axion-magnetic resonance (AMR), from laser experiments to axion helioscopes and demonstrate its potential in covering QCD axion parameter space. Specifically, we apply AMR to the CAST experiment legacy, make projections for the upcoming IAXO experiment, and assess its implications for both axion-like particles and QCD axions. We observe considerable improvement in the experiment's sensitivity reach in all cases.

description: 3D point cloud segmentation has received significant interest for its growing applications. However, the generalization ability of models suffers in dynamic scenarios due to the distribution shift between test and training data. To promote robustness and adaptability across diverse scenarios, test-time adaptation (TTA) has recently been introduced. Nevertheless, most existing TTA methods are developed for images, and limited approaches applicable to point clouds ignore the inherent hierarchical geometric structures in point cloud streams, i.e., local (point-level), global (object-level), and temporal (frame-level) structures. In this paper, we delve into TTA in 3D point cloud segmentation and propose a novel Hierarchical Geometry Learning (HGL) framework. HGL comprises three complementary modules from local, global to temporal learning in a bottom-up manner.Technically, we first construct a local geometry learning module for pseudo-label generation. Next, we build prototypes from the global geometry perspective for pseudo-label fine-tuning. Furthermore, we introduce a temporal consistency regularization module to mitigate negative transfer. Extensive experiments on four datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our HGL. Remarkably, on the SynLiDAR to SemanticKITTI task, HGL achieves an overall mIoU of 46.91\%, improving GIPSO by 3.0\% and significantly reducing the required adaptation time by 80\%.

Il presente lavoro analizza una particolare professione che, sino al 1963, era preclusa alle donne in Italia: la Magistratura. Esso ricostruisce il contesto storico che ha portato all?approvazione della Legge n. 66 del 9 febbraio 1963 ed estende l?analisi sino agli anni novanta, rilevando che la persistenza di evidenti criticit� di tipo retributivo e preclusivo alle carriere direttive riscontrate dalle donne in Italia affonda nel passato le sue radici. Ricostruite le linee generali degli aspetti storici e giuridici ed evidenziate le principali difficolt� che le donne hanno dovuto affrontare, il presente lavoro ha l?obiettivo di far emergere il lungo e tortuoso percorso che ha consentito l?entrata delle donne in Magistratura, ponendo in evidenza i limiti che tuttora impediscono una piena ed effettiva integrazione delle donne in Italia a tutti i livelli di questo settore.

description: We used nine waves of the Bank of Italy?s Survey on Household income and Wealth (1995- 2012) to investigate a possible trade-off between homeownership and individual participation in a supplementary pension scheme. Italy lends itself to this type of investigation because the Italian public pension system has been heavily reformed in the period, providing in principle incentives for participation, and the homeownership rate is very high. The impact of homeownership is captured in two ways: by a dummy for being homeowner and by an index defined as the share of housing wealth over total wealth. Our results show that indeed, after controlling for a vast array of socio-economic characteristics and allowing for unobserved individual heterogeneity, both measures of homeownership are negatively associated with participation in supplementary pension schemes and that such an effect does not disappear even after the 2007 reform.

description: It is common knowledge that investors like large gains and dislike large losses.
This translates into a preference for right-skewed return distributions, with right tails heavier than left tails.
Skewness is thus interesting not only as a way to describe the shape of a distribution, but also for risk measurement.
We review the statistical literature on skewness and provide a comprehensive framework for its assessment.
We present a new measure of skewness, based on a relative comparison between above average and below average returns.
We show that this measure represents a valid complement to the state of the art.

description: Motivated by closed string perturbation theory arguments by S. Shenker, we consider non-perturbative effects of characteristic strength $\mathcal{O}(e^{-1/g_{s}})$, with $g_{s}$ the closed string coupling constant, in supersymmetric critical heterotic string theories. We argue that in 10D such effects arise from heterotic 'D-instantons,' i.e. heterotic disk diagrams, whose existence relies on a non-trivial interplay between worldsheet and spacetime degrees of freedom. In compactifications of the $\mathrm{SemiSpin}(32)$ heterotic string, we argue that similar effects can arise from wrapped Euclidean non-BPS 'D-strings.' Two general principles arise: The first is that the consistency of those heterotic branes on which the fundamental string can end relies on an inflow mechanism for spacetime degrees of freedom. The second is that Shenker's argument, taken to its logical conclusion, implies that all closed string theories must exhibit open strings as well.

Forest Response to Climate Warming and Wildfires in Southern Siberia: Evidence of Suppressed Forest Productivity Due to Wildfires, Energy and Water Limitations
Creators: name: Bika, Konstantina
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024

description: The regulation of CO2 by sequestering carbon in soils and vegetation is crucial for forests, which are threatened by global warming and forest fires. As boreal forests warm more rapidly, extreme disturbances like droughts and wildfires are expected to increase by the end of the century. This thesis aimed to better understand patterns of boreal forest growth in southern Siberia in response to climate warming and forest fires using remotely sensed and in situ data. The study found that 80% of unburned forests experienced a decline in productivity due to anomalously high temperatures and reduced water availability. Evergreen stands experienced the greatest productivity declines, indicating an expansion of deciduous stands over evergreens. Forest fires can suppress forest productivity, and the growth dynamics of Scots pine stands with different ages and fire histories were studied at six different sites. The study also found significant post-fire trends in post-fire biomass, with significant structural changes 10 years post-fire. The study also explored the potential use of in-situ data, such as tree density, fire characteristics, and climatic conditions, to predict post-fire biomass accumulation. Biomass values of up to 11073 g/m2 were found, with poorly regrowing sites having the lowest biomass.

Quantum thermodynamics and semi-definite optimization
Creators: name: Wilde, Mark
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: In quantum thermodynamics, a system is described by a Hamiltonian and a list of non-commuting charges representing conserved quantities like particle number or electric charge, and an important goal is to determine the system's minimum energy in the presence of these conserved charges. In optimization theory, a semi-definite program (SDP) involves a linear objective function optimized over the cone of positive semi-definite operators intersected with an affine space. These problems arise from differing motivations in the physics and optimization communities and are phrased using very different terminology, yet they are essentially identical mathematically. By adopting Jaynes' mindset motivated by quantum thermodynamics, we observe that minimizing free energy in the aforementioned thermodynamics problem, instead of energy, leads to an elegant solution in terms of a dual chemical potential maximization problem that is concave in the chemical potential parameters. As such, one can employ standard (stochastic) gradient ascent methods to find the optimal values of these parameters, and these methods are guaranteed to converge quickly. At low temperature, the minimum free energy provides an excellent approximation for the minimum energy. We then show how this Jaynes-inspired gradient-ascent approach can be used in both first- and second-order classical and hybrid quantum-classical algorithms for minimizing energy, and equivalently, how it can be used for solving SDPs, with guarantees on the runtimes of the algorithms. The approach discussed here is well grounded in quantum thermodynamics and, as such, provides physical motivation underpinning why algorithms published fifty years after Jaynes' seminal work, including the matrix multiplicative weights update method, the matrix exponentiated gradient update method, and their quantum algorithmic generalizations, perform well at solving SDPs. Joint work with Nana Liu, Michele Minervini, and Dhrumil Patel.

A Scheduler for Real-Time Service in Wi-Fi 8 Multi-AP Networks With Parameterized Spatial Reuse

description: Real-time applications (RTAs) require low delays and impose a significant challenge to Wi-Fi. In Wi-Fi, high delays are often caused by waiting for the channel to become idle. This problem can be solved with Parameterized Spatial Reuse (PSR), which allows a station (STA) to transmit its frame with reduced power simultaneously with a triggered uplink transmission in an overlapping network. The PSR opportunity depends on the pathloss between involved STAs, so the same transmission may allow PSR for one STA but not for another one. Thus, to satisfy tight delay constraints in dense overlapping networks, access points (APs) in the same area shall often allow PSR for every STA with RTA traffic. This letter proposes a fast scheduler enabling frequent PSR transmissions for RTA traffic. The scheduler uses Multi-AP coordination, the feature of upcoming Wi-Fi 8. With simulations, we show that it almost halves the delay for RTA traffic and does not deteriorate the quality of service for other traffic compared with an airtime fairness scheduler.
