description: A combinative approach for chemical analysis makes it possible to distinguish a mixture of a large number of compounds from other mixtures in a single step. This work demonstrates a combinative analysis approach by using surface nanodroplets for integrating nanoextraction and colorimetric reactions for the identification of multi-component mixtures. The model analytes are acidic compounds dissolved in oil that are extracted into aqueous droplets on a solid substrate. The proton from acid dissociation reacts with the halochromic chemical compounds inside the droplets, leading to the color change of the droplets. The rate of the colorimetric reaction exhibits certain specificity for the acid type, distinguishing acid mixtures with the same pH value. The underlying principle is that the acid transport rate is associated with the partition coefficient and the dissociation constant of the acid, in addition to the concentration in oil. As a demonstration, we showed that droplet-based combinative analysis can be applied for anti-counterfeiting of various alcoholic spirits by comparing decolor time of organic acid mixtures in the spirits. The readout can be done by using a common hand-hold mobile phone.
"Gustos y disgustos son no más que imaginación" di Pedro Calderón de la Barca e la rappresentazione per le nozze di Carlo II e Maria Luisa d’Orléans

description: The comedy Gustos y disgustos son no más que imaginación was written by Pedro Calderón de la Barca in the Thirties and it was performed at court in 1680 on the occasion of the wedding of king Charles II with the French Marie Louise d’Orléans, Louis XIV’s niece, just a year before the death of the author. This paper explores, from a diachronic perspective, the different meanings and aims conveyed by the various vital stages of this Calderonian comedy – writing, performance and publication – with a specific focus on its 1680 performance at court.

DTBS: Dual-Teacher Bi-directional Self-training for Domain Adaptation in Nighttime Semantic Segmentation

description: Due to the poor illumination and the difficulty in annotating, nighttime conditions pose a significant challenge for autonomous vehicle perception systems. Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) has been widely applied to semantic segmentation on such images to adapt models from normal conditions to target nighttime-condition domains. Self-training (ST) is a paradigm in UDA, where a momentum teacher is utilized for pseudo-label prediction, but a confirmation bias issue exists. Because the one-directional knowledge transfer from a single teacher is insufficient to adapt to a large domain shift. To mitigate this issue, we propose to alleviate domain gap by incrementally considering style influence and illumination change. Therefore, we introduce a one-stage Dual-Teacher Bi-directional Self-training (DTBS) framework for smooth knowledge transfer and feedback. Based on two teacher models, we present a novel pipeline to respectively decouple style and illumination shift. In addition, we propose a new Re-weight exponential moving average (EMA) to merge the knowledge of style and illumination factors, and provide feedback to the student model. In this way, our method can be embedded in other UDA methods to enhance their performance. For example, the Cityscapes to ACDC night task yielded 53.8 mIoU (\%), which corresponds to an improvement of +5\% over the previous state-of-the-art.

Discovering Significant Topics from Legal Decisions with Selective Inference

description: We propose and evaluate an automated pipeline for discovering significant topics from legal decision texts by passing features synthesized with topic models through penalised regressions and post-selection significance tests. The method identifies case topics significantly correlated with outcomes, topic-word distributions which can be manually-interpreted to gain insights about significant topics, and case-topic weights which can be used to identify representative cases for each topic. We demonstrate the method on a new dataset of domain name disputes and a canonical dataset of European Court of Human Rights violation cases. Topic models based on latent semantic analysis as well as language model embeddings are evaluated. We show that topics derived by the pipeline are consistent with legal doctrines in both areas and can be useful in other related legal analysis tasks.

description: The better angular resolution along cardinal than oblique axis (‘oblique effect’) is a well known phenomenon in visual perception.  GABA-ergic inhibitory circuits of visual cortex are of particular importance for orientation discrimination and its modulation by axis position.  Individuals with ASD are characterised by deficits in the inhibitory circuitry, that may potentially affect their ability for visual orientation discrimination and magnitude of the ‘oblique effect’. These perceptual features have not been investigated in children with ASD.

In the current study we examined ability for line orientation discrimination in 15 high-functional boys with ASD (age 7-15 years) and 21 age- and IQ- matched neuro-typicals (NT) boys. The orientation discrimination threshold was measured separately for the vertical (90º) and oblique (45º) axes orientations using circular gratings (diameter 7°; spatial frequency 3 cycles/degree; contrast 100%; mean luminance 3.3 Lux).

We found reduced oblique effect in boys with ASD that was driven by their decreased sensitivity to orientations along cardinal axis. No group difference in oblique orientation threshold was detected. The oblique and cardinal orientation thresholds were correlated in ASD but not NT samples.

Our results suggest specific impairment of mechanisms determining the cortical orientation anisotropy in ASD children.

Paper machine data analysis using wavelets
Creators: name: Nesic, Zoran
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The thesis describes a new approach to paper machine process data analysis using one-dimensional and two-dimensional discrete wavelet transforms. These techniques have been adapted from a general theory that has been developed in recent years on the application of wavelets to signal analysis. Application areas in which the theory was first applied have included image processing and bandwidth compression for communications. Two main applications of the discrete wavelet transform have been analyzed in this thesis. First, an analysis of the use of wavelets for processing scanned data representing basis weight and moisture variations on a paper machine has been carried out. It has been shown that wavelets are effective for the detection of process signals in noisy data, so leading to better estimation and visualization of the machine direction and cross machine variations in process data. The second main application of the method has been to allow significant compression of the process data without diminishing the ability to reconstruct accurate profiles. It has been shown that the compression method can be embedded into the estimation algorithm, producing excellent results without a major expense in computation time. It has been shown that, in both applications, the new methods produce results superior to the industrially accepted procedures. For appropriate choice of wavelets, profile estimates are improved over those obtained using exponential filtering or other standard analysis methods. The data compression technique presents a new concept in paper machine data analysis and the author is not aware of any previous references to this subject. The ability to reduce data storage requirements is of importance in mill-wide process monitoring systems. A comprehensive analysis of the proposed algorithms has been carried out on a variety of simulated data sets for which the true process variations are known. Industrial data has also been analyzed and it is apparent that the method had many desirable characteristics.

description: This review presents some key issues in the mainland Chinese research on literary works of Chinese emigrants and authors of Chinese descents examining a series of recently published and representative papers. After a brief retrospection of the development of relative studies in the country, the author discusses the questions of denomination, methodology and canon by juxtaposing opinions of various scholars. In the analysis a particular attention is given to the “Chineseness”, a concept sometimes mythicized by some essentialist discourses of Chinese academia.

description: The slow motion of a crack line is studied via an experiment in which sheets of paper are split into two halves in a ``peel-in-nip'' (PIN) geometry under a constant load, in creep. The velocity-force relation is exponential. The dynamics of the fracture line exhibits intermittency, or avalanches, which are studied using acoustic emission. The energy statistics is a power-law, with the exponent $β\sim 1.8 \pm 0.1$. Both the waiting times between subsequent events and the displacement of the fracture line imply complicated stick-slip dynamics. We discuss the correspondence to tensile PIN tests and other similar experiments on in-plane fracture and the theory of creep for elastic manifolds.

description: Unlike regular electron spin, the pseudospin degeneracy of Fermi points in graphene does not couple directly to magnetic field. Therefore, graphene provides a natural vehicle to observe the integral and fractional quantum Hall physics in an elusive limit analogous to zero Zeeman splitting in GaAs systems. This limit can exhibit new integral plateaus arising from interactions, large pseudoskyrmions, fractional sequences, even/odd numerator effects, composite-fermion pseudoskyrmions, and a pseudospin-singlet composite-fermion Fermi sea. The Dirac nature of the B=0 spectrum, which induces qualitative changes in the overall spectrum, has no bearing on the fractional quantum Hall effect in the $n=0$ Landau level of graphene. The second Landau level of graphene is predicted to show more robust fractional quantum Hall effect than the second Landau level of GaAs.

description: Abstract The contribution aims at presenting the first account of a research project which investigates Florence as a migration goal for German-Jewish intellectuals during the 1930’s. The period of their Italian exile has surprisingly revealed to be rich in terms of intercultural exchange among intellectuals until the introduction of the racial laws. Most painters, academics and writers who set in Florence and in the surroundings, seemed to find a temporary relief in the heart of Italian Humanism. In some cases, they still had the chance to keep their literary and artistic creation up while drawing inspiration from the city of arts and letters as well as their predecessors such as Heinrich Heine and Hermann Hesse had done between the 19th and the 20th century. The focus will be on the perception of Florence as it emerges from both memories and works on some of the intellectual refugees, who witnessed their exile and represented the city both as the only possible shelter during migration and the quite pleasurable stay of a potential Grand Tour. In so doing they showed a continuum in its being an important source of inspiration among the centuries.

description: The density of a moderately dense gas evolving in a vacuum is given by the solution of an Enskog equation. Recently we have constructed in [ARS17] the stochastic process that corresponds to the Enskog equation under suitable conditions. The Enskog process is identified as the solution of a McKean-Vlasov equation driven by a Poisson random measure. In this work, we continue the study for a wider class of collision kernels that includes hard and soft potentials. Based on a suitable particle approximation of binary collisions, the existence of an Enskog process is established.

description: This paper sets out the linguistic analysis of an exile novel, Transit (1948) by Anna Seghers, which, even if inspired by autobiographical events, presents a style of writing evaluated by literary critics as not simply realistic, but complex, evocative and poetic. The analysis, which aims to substantiate the theses formulated by the most recent literary studies on an empirical-textual basis, consists essentially of two parts: the first part offers a linguistic reinterpretation of the most evident stylistic elements already mentioned in the literary state of arts, while the second part focuses on a recurrent stylistic phenomenon not yet explored, i.e., the attributive participle. Through the different levels of analysis, the Seghersian style emerges as a language characterized by a complex mixture of signs.

description: Broad Balmer emission lines in active galactic nuclei (AGN) may display dramatic changes in amplitude, even disappearance and re-appearance in some sources. As a nearby galaxy at a redshift of z = 0.0264, Mrk 590 suffered such a cycle of Seyfert type changes between 2006 and 2017. Over the last fifty years, Mrk 590 also underwent a powerful continuum outburst and a slow fading from X-rays to radio wavelengths with a peak bolometric luminosity reaching about ten per cent of the Eddington luminosity. To track its past accretion and ejection activity, we performed very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations with the European VLBI Network (EVN) at 1.6 GHz in 2015. The EVN observations reveal a faint (~1.7 mJy) radio jet extending up to ~2.8 mas (projected scale ~1.4 pc) toward north, and probably resulting from the very intensive AGN activity. To date, such a parsec-scale jet is rarely seen in the known changing-look AGN. The finding of the faint jet provides further strong support for variable accretion as the origin of the type changes in Mrk 590.

description: This study introduces a method to design a curriculum for machine-learning to maximize the efficiency during the training process of deep neural networks (DNNs) for speech emotion recognition. Previous studies in other machine-learning problems have shown the benefits of training a classifier following a curriculum where samples are gradually presented in increasing level of difficulty. For speech emotion recognition, the challenge is to establish a natural order of difficulty in the training set to create the curriculum. We address this problem by assuming that ambiguous samples for humans are also ambiguous for computers. Speech samples are often annotated by multiple evaluators to account for differences in emotion perception across individuals. While some sentences with clear emotional content are consistently annotated, sentences with more ambiguous emotional content present important disagreement between individual evaluations. We propose to use the disagreement between evaluators as a measure of difficulty for the classification task. We propose metrics that quantify the inter-evaluation agreement to define the curriculum for regression problems and binary and multi-class classification problems. The experimental results consistently show that relying on a curriculum based on agreement between human judgments leads to statistically significant improvements over baselines trained without a curriculum.

description: Existence of 1D spin diffusion in the electrochemical sugar recognition system consisting of a nano-sized gold particle (GNP), a ruthenium complex and a phenylboronic acid was investigated by NMR and muSR. When sugar molecules are recognized by the phenylboronic site, the response of electrochemical voltammetry of the Ru site changes, enabling the system to work as a sensitive sugar-sensor. In this recognition process, the change in the electronic state at the boron site caused by sugar must be transferred to the Ru site via alkyl chains. We have utilized the muon-labelled electrons method and the proton NMR to find out a channel of the electron transfer from the phenylboronic acid site to the gold nano particle via the one dimensional alkyl chain. If this transfer is driven by diffusive spin channel, characteristic field dependence is expected in the longitudinal spin relaxation rate of muSR and 1H-NMR. We have observed significant decrease in the spin relaxation rates with increasing applied field. The result is discussed in terms of low dimensional spin diffusion.

Despite the tremendous progress, many questions in open source remain: How to build an open culture where diverse stakeholders of society participate not just in accessing knowledge, but in its production, circulation, and societal benefit? How to embed the DEI principles? How to reduce and tackle the environmental harms of technology?To answer these, I turn to the Do No Harm principle and apply it to open source/science work.
Decayless oscillations in 3D coronal loops excited by a power-law driver

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Aims. We studied the manifestation of decayless oscillations in 3D simulations of coronal loops, driven by random motions. Methods. Using the PLUTO code, we ran magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of a straight gravitationally stratified flux tube, with its footpoints embedded in chromospheric plasma. We consider transverse waves drivers with a horizontally polarised red noise power-law spectrum. Results. Our broadband drivers lead to the excitation of standing waves with frequencies equal to the fundamental standing kink mode and its harmonics. These standing kink oscillations have non-decaying amplitudes, and spectra that depend on the characteristics of the loops, with the latter amplifying the resonant frequencies from the drivers. We thus report for the first time in 3D simulations the manifestation of decayless oscillations from broadband drivers. The spatial and temporal evolution of our oscillation spectra reveals the manifestation of a half harmonic, which exhibits half the frequency of the identified fundamental mode with a similar spatial profile. Our results suggest that this mode is related to the presence of the transition region in our model and could be interpreted as being the equivalent to the fundamental mode of standing sound waves driven on pipes closed at one end. Conclusions. The potential existence of this half harmonic has important implications for coronal seismology, since misinterpreting it for the fundamental mode of the system can lead to false estimations of the average kink speed profile along oscillating loops. Finally, its detection could potentially give us a tool for distinguishing between different excitation and driving mechanisms of decayless oscillations in observations.

Concerning Dice and Divinity

description: Einstein initially objected to the probabilistic aspect of quantum mechanics - the idea that God is playing at dice. Later he changed his ground, and focussed instead on the point that the Copenhagen Interpretation leads to what Einstein saw as the abandonment of physical realism. We argue here that Einstein's initial intuition was perfectly sound, and that it is precisely the fact that quantum mechanics is a fundamentally probabilistic theory which is at the root of all the controversies regarding its interpretation. Probability is an intrinsically logical concept. This means that the quantum state has an essentially logical significance. It is extremely difficult to reconcile that fact with Einstein's belief, that it is the task of physics to give us a vision of the world apprehended sub specie aeternitatis. Quantum mechanics thus presents us with a simple choice: either to follow Einstein in looking for a theory which is not probabilistic at the fundamental level, or else to accept that physics does not in fact put us in the position of God looking down on things from above. There is a widespread fear that the latter alternative must inevitably lead to a greatly impoverished, positivistic view of physical theory. It appears to us, however, that the truth is just the opposite. The Einsteinian vision is much less attractive than it seems at first sight. In particular, it is closely connected with philosophical reductionism.

description: In this work, we study the generalized shallow water wave equation to obtain novel solitary wave solutions. The application of this non-linear model can be found in tidal waves, weather simulations, tsunami prediction, river and irrigation flows, etc. To obtain the new exact solutions of the considered model, we have applied a novel analytical technique namely $\left(\frac{G'}{G'+G+A}\right)$--expansion method. Using the aforementioned method and computational software, we have obtained different kinds of periodic and singular solitary wave solutions of the generalized shallow water wave equation. The obtained solutions are exponential function and trigonometric function solutions. Using 2-D and 3-D plots of the wave solutions, the dynamic behaviors of the developed solutions are displayed. The retrieved solutions validated the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed technique.

description: Over the centuries, not only have culture and contagion been metaphorically related and in certain contexts even used interchangeably to connote exchange, communication and contact, but theories of transmission, contamination and contagion have been variously concerned with boundary-crossings, as well as with spatial, temporal and cognitive routes of passage across both the inside and the outside. Annika Mann’s compelling book Reading Contagion: The Hazards of Reading in the Age of Print offers a timely historical intervention into long-standing scholarly debates about contagion as a bodily phenomenon and concept metaphor. Matthew Newsom Kerr’s monumental Contagion, Isolation, and Biopolitics in Victorian London convincingly demonstrates that contagion, in a manner that may differ from culture to culture, also affects how space itself – both domestic and public, inner and outer – is experienced and points to a growing concern for the governance and surveillance of individual bodies in different contexts.

description: Two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal oxide perovskites greatly expand the field of available 2D multifunctional material systems. Here, based on density functional theory calculations, we predicted the presence of ferromagnetism orders accompanying with an insulator-metal phase transition in bilayer $KNbO_{3}$ and $KTaO_{3}$ by applying strain engineering and/or external electric field. Our results will contribute to the applications of few-layer transition metal oxide perovskites in the emerging spintronics and straintronics.

The Challenge of Distant Teaching for Primary School Teachers of English during the Covid-19: the Cases of Spain, Italy and Romania

description: This paper illustrates some teachers’ perspectives, beliefs and experiences as to distance learning before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The comparative analysis of the responses to a specifically designed online survey administered to a hundred primary-school EFL teachers in some regions of Italy, Romania, and Spain in May/July 2020, aimed to examine the brunt of the pandemic on teachers in those severely affected areas. Results suggest that educators were somehow prepared to face distance learning in terms of resources and materials. During the lockdown they used synchronic video-conferencing tools and online games more extensively; though they struggled to monitor children’s progress and to uphold their motivation throughout the school closures, they seem ready to embed those instruments and strategies in future blended teaching. However, educators admit to lack training in how to implement FL online teaching and are concerned about its efficacy with young learners.

description: A variant of the abstract Cauchy-Kovalevskaya theorem is considered. We prove existence and uniqueness of classical solutions to the nonlinear, non-autonomous initial value problem \[ \frac{du(t)}{dt} = A(t)u(t) + B(u(t),t), \ \ u(0) = x \] in a scale of Banach spaces. Here $A(t)$ is the generator of an evolution system acting in a scale of Banach spaces and $B(u,t)$ obeys an Ovcyannikov-type bound. Continuous dependence of the solution with respect to $A(t)$, $B(u,t)$ and $x$ is proved. The results are applied to the Kimura-Maruyama equation for the mutation-selection balance model. This yields a new insight in the construction and uniqueness question for nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations related with interacting particle systems in the continuum.
Modeling, simulation, and control of a Stewart platform
Creators: name: Li, Daming
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis describes the modeling, simulation, and control of an inverted, ceiling-mounted Stewart platform, which is designed to be a motion simulator. This hydraulically actuated Stewart platform is capable of providing 10 m/s2, 400 degree/s2 accelerations and 1 m/s, 30 degree/s speeds to a 250 kg payload. The issues of modeling and control of such a platform are addressed here. The inverse kinematics and forward kinematics are studied first. The platform rigid-body dynamics are derived based on the virtual work principle and then combined with the actuator dynamics to simulate the response of the Stewart platform given a pre-planned motion path. Design and implementation of the link-space controller are discussed and also validated using experimental data. Cartesian-space controllers are also addressed. Motion drive algorithms are finally addressed to complete the system's function as a motion simulator. When the controller is well tuned, the bandwidth of the system can reach about 9Hz along the vertical axis for a payload of about 140 kg.
Fine-Grained Network Analysis for Modern Software Ecosystems

description: Modern software development is increasingly dependent on components, libraries and frameworks coming from third-party vendors or open-source suppliers and made available through a number of platforms (or forges). This way of writing software puts an emphasis on reuse and on composition, commoditizing the services which modern applications require. On the other hand, bugs and vulnerabilities in a single library living in one such ecosystem can affect, directly or by transitivity, a huge number of other libraries and applications. Currently, only product-level information on library dependencies is used to contain this kind of danger, but this knowledge often reveals itself too imprecise to lead to effective (and possibly automated) handling policies. We will discuss how fine-grained function-level dependencies can greatly improve reliability and reduce the impact of vulnerabilities on the whole software ecosystem.
Spin densities in parabolic quantum wires with Rashba spin-orbit interaction

description: Using canonical transformations we diagonalize approximately the Hamiltonian of a gaussian wire with Rashba spin-orbit interaction. This proceedure allows us to obtain the energy dispersion relations and the wavefunctions with good accuracy, even in systems with relatively strong Rashba coupling. With these eigenstates one can calculate the non-equilibrium spin densities induced by applying bias voltages across the sample. We focus on the $z$-component of the spin density, which is related to the spin Hall effect.

description: Mining the hierarchical structure of Internet review topics and realizing a fine classification of review texts can help alleviate users' information overload. However, existing hierarchical topic classification methods primarily rely on external corpora and human intervention. This study proposes a Modified Continuous Renormalization (MCR) procedure that acts on the keyword co-occurrence network with fractal characteristics to achieve the topic hierarchy mining. First, the fractal characteristics in the keyword co-occurrence network of Internet review text are identified using a box-covering algorithm for the first time. Then, the MCR algorithm established on the edge adjacency entropy and the box distance is proposed to obtain the topic hierarchy in the keyword co-occurrence network. Verification data from the Dangdang.com book reviews shows that the MCR constructs topic hierarchies with greater coherence and independence than the HLDA and the Louvain algorithms. Finally, reliable review text classification is achieved using the MCR extended bottom level topic categories. The accuracy rate (P), recall rate (R) and F1 value of Internet review text classification obtained from the MCR-based topic hierarchy are significantly improved compared to four target text classification algorithms.

Quantization of models with non-compact quantum group symmetry. Modular XXZ magnet and lattice sinh-Gordon model

description: We define and study certain integrable lattice models with non-compact quantum group symmetry (the modular double of U_q(sl_2)) including an integrable lattice regularization of the sinh-Gordon model and a non-compact version of the XXZ model. Their fundamental R-matrices are constructed in terms of the non-compact quantum dilogarithm. Our choice of the quantum group representations naturally ensures self-adjointness of the Hamiltonian and the higher integrals of motion. These models are studied with the help of the separation of variables method. We show that the spectral problem for the integrals of motion can be reformulated as the problem to determine a subset among the solutions to certain finite difference equations (Baxter equation and quantum Wronskian equation) which is characterized by suitable analytic and asymptotic properties. A key technical tool is the so-called Q-operator, for which we give an explicit construction. Our results allow us to establish some connections to related results and conjectures on the sinh-Gordon theory in continuous space-time. Our approach also sheds some light on the relations between massive and massless models (in particular, the sinh-Gordon and Liouville theories) from the point of view of their integrable structures.
