description: This paper addresses the problem of real-time detection and tracking of a non-cooperative target in the challenging scenario with almost no a-priori information about target birth, death, dynamics and detection probability. Furthermore, there are false and missing data at an unknown yet low rate in the measurements. The only information given in advance is about the target-measurement model and the constraint that there is no more than one target in the scenario. To solve these challenges, we model the movement of the target by using a polynomial trajectory function of time (T-FoT), which aims to estimate the continuous-time trajectory of the target rather than a series of discrete-time point estimates as is done in most existing filters/trackers. Data-driven T-FoT initiation and termination strategies are proposed for identifying the (re-)appearance and disappearance of the target. During the existence of the target, real target measurements are distinguished from clutter if the target indeed exists and is detected, in order to update the T-FoT at each scan for which we design a least-squares estimator. Overall, our approach is Markov-free, data-driven yet analytical. Simulations using either linear or nonlinear systems are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in comparison with the Bayes optimal Bernoulli filters. The results show that our approach is comparable to the perfectly modeled filters, even outperforms them in some cases while requiring much less a-priori information and computing much faster.

description: Medical imaging deep learning models are often large and complex, requiring specialized hardware to train and evaluate these models. To address such issues, we propose the PocketNet paradigm to reduce the size of deep learning models by throttling the growth of the number of channels in convolutional neural networks. We demonstrate that, for a range of segmentation and classification tasks, PocketNet architectures produce results comparable to that of conventional neural networks while reducing the number of parameters by multiple orders of magnitude, using up to 90% less GPU memory, and speeding up training times by up to 40%, thereby allowing such models to be trained and deployed in resource-constrained settings.

description: In this paper the asymptotic behaviour of a critical 2-type Galton-Watson process with immigration is described when its offspring mean matrix is reducible, in other words, when the process is decomposable. It is proved that, under second or fourth order moment assumptions on the offspring and immigration distributions, a sequence of appropriately scaled random step processes formed from a critical decomposable 2-type Galton-Watson process with immigration converges weakly. The limit process can be described using one or two independent squared Bessel processes and possibly the unique stationary distribution of an appropriate single-type subcritical Galton-Watson process with immigration. Our results complete and extend the results of Foster and Ney (1978) for some strongly critical decomposable 2-type Galton-Watson processes with immigration.

Confirmatory Factor Analysis of Oppositional Defiant Disorder within Clinically Referred Youth
Creators: name: Garcia, Breanna
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: Each new edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5; APA, 2013) has been met with substantial criticism. Particularly, in DSM-5, two disorders were defined by very similar criteria. Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) was defined as consisting of three dimensions - irritability, noncompliance, and spiteful/vindictive. Additionally, ODD has duration criteria that indicate its symptoms must be present for at least 6 months suggesting the presence of chronic irritability. DSM-5 also included disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) as a disorder marked by the presence of chronic irritability in childhood and adolescence. The question of whether chronic irritability (i.e., DMDD) can be separated from ODD in clinical settings is a substantial question. Most studies indicate that DMDD and ODD have significant overlap (Freeman et al., 2016; Mayes et al., 2016). An alternate method is to examine whether ODD consists of independent or correlated dimensions. The factor structure of ODD can inform questions regarding whether irritability is a distinct dimension within ODD. Therefore, examining competing models of the factor structure of ODD in a clinical sample and externally validating the resulting dimensions should inform whether irritability should be treated as a unique, separate dimension of psychopathology or whether it is subsumed within a broader disruptive behavior dimension. The current study hypothesized that across parent and clinician ratings, ODD would have a multidimensional factor structure consisting of at least irritability and noncompliance factors. ODD's factor structure would be best explained via a general ODD factor and two specific factors representing irritability and noncompliance. Additionally, the current study hypothesized that irritability and noncompliance will be differentially associated with internalizing symptoms and psychopathology and externalizing symptoms and psychopathology respectively. The hypotheses were partially supported. Implications for clinical decision making are discussed.
A Line Source In Minkowski For The de Sitter Spacetime Scalar Green's Function: Massless Minimally Coupled Case

description: Motivated by the desire to understand the causal structure of physical signals produced in curved spacetimes -- particularly around black holes -- we show how, for certain classes of geometries, one might obtain its retarded or advanced minimally coupled massless scalar Green's function by using the corresponding Green's functions in the higher dimensional Minkowski spacetime where it is embedded. Analogous statements hold for certain classes of curved Riemannian spaces, with positive definite metrics, which may be embedded in higher dimensional Euclidean spaces. The general formula is applied to $(d \geq 2)$-dimensional de Sitter spacetime, and the scalar Green's function is demonstrated to be sourced by a line emanating infinitesimally close to the origin of the ambient $(d+1)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime and piercing orthogonally through the de Sitter hyperboloids of all finite sizes. This method does not require solving the de Sitter wave equation directly. Only the zero mode solution to an ordinary differential equation, the "wave equation" perpendicular to the hyperboloid -- followed by a one dimensional integral -- needs to be evaluated. A topological obstruction to the general construction is also discussed by utilizing it to derive a generalized Green's function of the Laplacian on the $(d \geq 2)$-dimensional sphere.

Early Contractional History of the Funeral Mountains and its Influence on the Formation of the Funeral Mountains Metamorphic Core Complex, Death Valley, CA
Creators: name: Craig, Taylor Douglas
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2019

description: Zones of localized crustal thickening in orogenic belts commonly host low-angle normal faults, which have been controversial since their recognition. The metamorphic core complexes of the Sevier hinterland are localized within a belt that is attributed with the highest degrees of crustal thickening during Sevier orogenesis. This association of deep-rooted detachment faulting and early contractional deformation indicates an important link between the two processes, however repeated tectonic episodes often overprint and obscure the earlier fabrics, making this link difficult to study. The Funeral Mountains metamorphic core complex, located in Death Valley, CA, has a complex history of protracted SE-contraction and tectonic burial of Late Jurassic age that has since been overprinting by two periods of NW-directed detachment faulting during Late Cretaceous and Miocene time. Exposure of a Barrovian-style metamorphic field gradient and a thick stratigraphic section with large rheologic contrasts has provided a unique opportunity to investigate the apparent genetic link between contractional structures and the development of low-angle normal faults. Detailed mapping at 1:10000 scale has revealed evidence of four separate fabric forming events. Evidence for early burial was found within the Kingston Peak diamictite, which contains a well-developed bedding-parallel foliation with asymmetric strained clasts with SE-vergence. This early foliation was subsequently folded during a second period of contraction of Early Cretaceous(?) age. This event produced NNE-SSW mesoscopic to map-scale folds with SE-vergence. A new U-Pb zircon age of 95.63 ± 0.95 Ma, from a peraluminous granite intrusion that preserves no contractional fabrics, may provide lower constraints on the age of contraction. Two periods of top-NW shear overprint the earlier top-SE fabrics during the Late Cretaceous and Miocene, which produced two intracore shear zones, the Monarch Canyon shear zone and the Eastern shear zone, and the primary dome forming fault, the Boundary Canyon Detachment fault. The contractional fabrics are subparallel with extensional structures of opposite kinematics, indicating deformation generated by structures of similar orientations. These observations, in conjunction with the absence of an enigmatic thrust fault responsible for the deep burial of the Funeral Mountains, has led us to hypothesize that tectonic reactivation of a Late Jurassic thrust fault was the primary mechanism behind detachment faulting within this complex.

description: Magnetic semiconductors are a powerful platform for understanding, utilizing and tuning the interplay between magnetic order and electronic transport. Compared to bulk crystals, two-dimensional magnetic semiconductors have greater tunability, as illustrated by the gate modulation of magnetism in exfoliated CrI$_3$ and Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$, but their electrically insulating properties limit their utility in devices. Here we report the simultaneous electrostatic and magnetic control of electronic transport in atomically-thin CrSBr, an A-type antiferromagnetic semiconductor. Through magnetotransport measurements, we find that spin-flip scattering from the interlayer antiferromagnetic configuration of multilayer flakes results in giant negative magnetoresistance. Conversely, magnetoresistance of the ferromagnetic monolayer CrSBr vanishes below the Curie temperature. A second transition ascribed to the ferromagnetic ordering of magnetic defects manifests in a large positive magnetoresistance in the monolayer and a sudden increase of the bulk magnetic susceptibility. We demonstrate this magnetoresistance is tunable with an electrostatic gate, revealing that the ferromagnetic coupling of defects is carrier mediated.

description: Regression testing activities greatly reduce the risk of faulty software release. However, the size of the test suites grows throughout the development process, resulting in time-consuming execution of the test suite and delayed feedback to the software development team. This has urged the need for approaches such as test case prioritization (TCP) and test-suite reduction to reach better results in case of limited resources. In this regard, proposing approaches that use auxiliary sources of data such as bug history can be interesting. We aim to propose an approach for TCP that takes into account test case coverage data, bug history, and test case diversification. To evaluate this approach we study its performance on real-world open-source projects. The bug history is used to estimate the fault-proneness of source code areas. The diversification of test cases is preserved by incorporating fault-proneness on a clustering-based approach scheme. The proposed methods are evaluated on datasets collected from the development history of five real-world projects including 357 versions in total. The experiments show that the proposed methods are superior to coverage-based TCP methods. The proposed approach shows that improvement of coverage-based and fault-proneness-based methods is possible by using a combination of diversification and fault-proneness incorporation.

description: Numerical simulations suggest that Neptune primordial co-orbitals may outnumber the equivalent population hosted by Jupiter, yet the objects remain elusive. Since the first discovery in 2001 just 10 minor planets have been identified as Neptune co-orbitals. On the other hand, some simulations predict that a negligible fraction of passing bodies are captured into the 1:1 commensurability with Neptune today. Hundreds of objects have been discovered in the outer solar system during the various wide-field surveys carried out during the past decade, and many of them have been classified using cuts in the pericentre and other orbital elements. This leads to possible misclassifications of resonant objects. Here, we explore this possibility to uncover neglected Neptune co-orbitals. We confirm that 4 objects previously classified as Centaurs by the MPC currently are temporary Neptune co-orbitals. (148975) 2001 XA255 is the most dynamically unstable of the four. It appears to be a relatively recent (50 kyr) visitor from the scattered disk in its way to the inner solar system. (310071) 2010 KR59 is following a complex horseshoe orbit, (316179) 2010 EN65 is in the process of switching from leading to trailing Trojan, and 2012 GX17 is a promising trailing Trojan candidate in urgent need of follow-up. The four objects move in highly inclined orbits and have significant eccentricities. These dynamically hot objects are not primordial 1:1 librators, but are captured and likely originated from beyond Neptune.

description: We extend the superembedding formalism for 4D N=1 superconformal field theory (SCFT) to the case of fields in arbitrary representations of the superconformal group SU(2,2|1). As applications we obtain manifestly superconformally covariant expressions for two- and three-point functions involving conserved currents, e.g. the supercurrent multiplet or global symmetry current superfields. The embedding space results are presented in a compact form by employing an index-free formalism. Our expressions are consistent with the literature, but the manifestly covariant forms of correlators presented here are new.

description: A system of linear forms $L=\{L_1,\ldots,L_m\}$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ is said to be Sidorenko if the number of solutions to $L=0$ in any $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_{q}^n$ is asymptotically as $n\to\infty$ at least the expected number of solutions in a random set of the same density. Work of Saad and Wolf (2017) and of Fox, Pham and Zhao (2019) fully characterises single equations with this property and both sets of authors ask about a characterisation of Sidorenko systems of equations. In this paper, we make progress towards this goal. Firstly, we find a simple necessary condition for a system to be Sidorenko, thus providing a rich family of non-Sidorenko systems. In the opposite direction, we find a large family of structured Sidorenko systems, by utilising the entropy method. We also make significant progress towards a full classification of systems of two equations.

description: Proximity perception is a technology that has the potential to play an essential role in the future of robotics. It can fulfill the promise of safe, robust, and autonomous systems in industry and everyday life, alongside humans, as well as in remote locations in space and underwater. In this survey paper, we cover the developments of this field from the early days up to the present, with a focus on human-centered robotics. Here, proximity sensors are typically deployed in two scenarios: first, on the exterior of manipulator arms to support safety and interaction functionality, and second, on the inside of grippers or hands to support grasping and exploration. Starting from this observation, we propose a categorization for the approaches found in the literature. To provide a basis for understanding these approaches, we devote effort to present the technologies and different measuring principles that were developed over the years, also providing a summary in form of a table. Then, we show the diversity of applications that have been presented in the literature. Finally, we give an overview of the most important trends that will shape the future of this domain.

title: The Development of Written Expression in Young Children
Creators: name: Glasgow, Eilene Kay
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 1982

description:
This Study investigated written expression development of forty- six children ages three to nine. "Written expression refers to the written productions of the child which reflect intentional symbolic representation of ideas, but which may not necessarily use the ideographic symbol system" (Klein, 1981) . The two purposes of the study were: 1. To examine the types of writing strategies used by young children to record the verbal cues of a guided writing task. The responses were compared to responses reported by A. Luria in his original study (1977-1978). 2. To determine if use of elicitation cues containing quantification or color/contrast modifiers would improve task performance by assisting movement from lower-level to higher-level writing strategies (as categorized within a written expression development framework modified from Luria's). The subject was told to put down something which would help him remember a series of six to eight cues. The subject then "read" the cues back. Classification was based upon writing and reading behaviors, and the written sample. It was found that sixty-eight percent of the subjects used undifferentiated, differentiated and pictographic writing strategies, as identified by Luria. Thirty-two percent used alphabetic strategies which were not common in Luria's study. A modified framework was developed which incorporated the Lurian stages and the alphabetic stages. The types of responses varied with age and previous experience. Quantification, color/contrast modifiers, and vefy familiar concrete images aided performance for many subjects. The "experimental-genetic" method used was found to successfully stimulate a wide variety of responses. Implications of the findings were that: 1. There is a natural pattern of development of knowledge of writing purpose and procedures which should be considered in early literacy instruction. 2. Many children are ready for functional writing at an earlier age than previously recognized. 3. Young children need to explore writing to come to an understanding of its symbolic aspects. Early school writing experiences should be planned to focus on communicative intent rather than on mechanics of writing. 4. Exploration of pictography by preliterate children should be facilitated to develop their understanding of the symbolic potential of writing.
Infinite critical boson non-Fermi liquid on heterostructure interfaces

description: We study the emergence of non-Fermi liquid on heterostructure interfaces where there exists an infinite number of critical boson modes accounting for the magnetic fluctuations in two spatial dimensions. The interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction naturally arises in magnetic interactions due to the absence of inversion symmetry, resulting in a degenerate contour for the low-energy bosonic modes in the momentum space which simultaneously becomes critical near the magnetic phase transition. The itinerant electrons are scattered by the critical boson contour via the Yukawa coupling. When the boson contour is much smaller than the Fermi surface, it is shown that, there exists a regime with a dynamic critical exponent z=3 while the boson contour still controls the low-energy magnetic fluctuations. Using a self-consistent renormalization calculation for this regime, we uncover a prominent non-Fermi liquid behavior in the resistivity with a characteristic temperature scaling power. These findings open up new avenues for understanding boson-fermion interactions and the novel fermionic quantum criticality.

description: This paper presents a new method for modelling periodic signals having an aperiodic trend, using the method of variable projection. It is a major extension to the IEEE-standard 1057 by permitting the background to be time varying; additionally, any number of harmonics of the periodic portion can be modelled. This paper focuses on using B-Splines to implement a piecewise polynomial model for the aperiodic portion of the signal. A thorough algebraic derivation of the method is presented, as well as a comparison to using global polynomial approximation. It is proven that B-Splines work better for modelling a more complicated aperiodic portion when compared to higher order polynomials. Furthermore, the piecewise polynomial model is capable of modelling the local signal variations produced by the interaction of a control system with a process in industrial applications. The method of variable projection reduces the problem to a one-dimensional nonlinear optimization, combined with a linear least-squares computation. An added benefit of using the method of variable projection is the possibility to calculate the covariances of the linear coefficients of the model, enabling the calculation of confidence and prediction intervals. The method is tested on both real measurement data acquired in industrial processes, as well as synthetic data. The method shows promising results for the precise characterization of periodic signals embedded in highly complex aperiodic backgrounds. Finally, snippets of the m-code are provided, together with a toolbox for B-Splines, which permit the implementation of the complete computation.

description: We distinguish between Local Group field galaxies which may have passed through the virial volume of the Milky Way, and those which have not, via a statistical compari- son against populations of dark matter haloes in the Via Lactea II (VLII) simulation with known orbital histories. Analysis of VLII provides expectations for this escaped population: they contribute 13 per cent of the galactic population between 300 and 1500 kpc from the Milky Way, and hence we anticipate that about 7 of the 54 known Local Group galaxies in that distance range are likely to be Milky Way escapees. These objects can be of any mass below that of the Milky Way, and they are expected to have positive radial velocities with respect to the Milky Way. Comparison of the radius-velocity distributions of VLII populations and measurements of Local Group galaxies presents a strong likelihood that Tucana, Cetus, NGC3109, SextansA, SextansB, Antlia, NGC6822, Phoenix, LeoT, and NGC185 have passed through the Milky Way. Most of these dwarfs have a lower HI mass fraction than the majority of dwarfs lying at similar distances to either the Milky Way or M31. Indeed, several of these galaxies - especially those with lower masses - contain signatures in their morphology, star formation history and/or gas content indicative of evolution seen in simulations of satellite/parent galactic interactions. Our results offer strong support for scenarios in which dwarfs of different types form a sequence in morphology and gas content, with evolution along the sequence being driven by interaction history.

A thermodynamical description of third grade fluid mixtures
Creators: name: Gorgone, Matteo

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A complete thermodynamical analysis for a non-reacting binary mixture exhibiting the features of a third grade fluid is analyzed. The constitutive functions are allowed to depend on the mass density of the mixture and the concentration of one of the constituents, together with their first and second order gradients, on the specific internal energy of the mixture with its first order gradient, as well as on the symmetric part of the gradient of barycentric velocity. Compatibility with second law of thermodynamics is investigated by applying the extended Liu procedure. An explicit solution of the set of thermodynamic restrictions is obtained by postulating a suitable form of the constitutive relations for the diffusional mass flux, the heat flux and the Cauchy stress tensor. Taking a first order expansion in the gradients of the specific entropy, the expression of the entropy flux is determined. It includes an additional contribution due to non-local effects.

Mixing the Business of Pleasure: How Mixing Shaped the Labor and Narratives of Female Entertainers in Mid-Twentieth Century America
Creators: name: Casey, Evan Maryl
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: In mid-twentieth century America, the practice of mixing Ð the required visibility of performers outside of their time on stage for an economic purpose Ð cut across the various genres of sexualized female labor, from showgirls to exotic dancers and the professional women who occupied the space between. Mixing required performers socialize with patrons, encouraging them to buy drinks and was expected of a wide variety of female professionals in the decades following the Second World War, including burlesque performers, gogo dancers, exotic dancers, and showgirls, hostesses, waitresses, and B-girls. Women's bodies have historically been a part of a commercialized leisure culture based on socially acceptable misbehavior, which naturally led to morally-guided legislation that served to restrict labor opportunities for these women and further conflated their profession with prostitution. The study of mixing provides the opportunity to see more clearly the often-blurry lines between job requirements and job expectations, between implied sexual availability
         and actual sex work, and between the various definitions of the performative labors of female entertainers.
         This thesis demonstrates that mixing shaped both the labor of female performers and the narratives that surrounded their work. Due to its ubiquity in mid-twentieth century American entertainment, the practice of mixing is a valuable tool to contextualize the experience of a wide variety of female performers at an intersection of sexuality, labor, and gender studies. This work contributes to a growing body of scholarship that reevaluates prevailing narrative of sexual conservativeness in the decades prior to the Sexual Revolution and the professionalization of women's labor. The requirement of female performers to mix changed the job of exotic dancers over
         time, creating the economic model for the modern strip club industry.
title: Design, Layout, and Testing of Sige APDs Fabricated in a Bicmos Process
Creators: name: Gentry, Dane Laurence
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: This Thesis is concerned with the design, layout, and testing of avalanche photodiodes (APDs). APDs are a type of photodetector and, thus, convert light signals into electrical signals (current or voltage). APDs can be fabricated using silicon (Si). In this Thesis, however, three integrated circuit (IC) chips containing various silicon-germanium (SiGe) APDs with different sizes, structures, and geometries were designed, laid out, and fabricated using the Austriamicrosystems (AMS) 0.35μm SiGe BiCMOS (S35) process. This was done in order to compare SiGe APDs to Si only APDs and investigate the hypothesis that SiGe APDs are capable of detecting longer wavelengths than Si only APDs. This is due to the smaller band gap energy associated with SiGe compared to that of Si.
The different SiGe APDs were tested and found to, indeed, have the capability of detecting slightly longer wavelengths than Si APDs. A 5μm x 5μm SiGe APD and 24μm x 24μm SiGe APD were found to have a spectral peak at 500nm and a cutoff wavelength (λc) of 1180nm compared to 480nm and 1100nm, respectively, for a 10μm x 10μm Si APD. The 24μm x 24μm SiGe APD was also found to have a responsivity of 0.34 A/W at 500nm and quantum efficiency (QE) of 85% at 450nm.
APDs differ from traditional photodiodes in that they possess an internal avalanche gain and, thus, produce a larger electrical signal than a traditional photodiode for the same amount of incident light. All photodiodes produce an undesired electrical signal, called dark current, even in a dark state with no light signal incident on the photodiode. Therefore, the gain and dark current associated with each of the fabricated APDs was also measured in order to determine the characteristics of the different SiGe APD variants. The 5μm x 5μm and 24μm x 24μm SiGe APDs have a zero bias (0V) dark current of 3pA and 5pA, respectively, compared to 3pA for the 10μm x 10μm Si APD. The 5μm x 5μm and 24μm x 24μm SiGe APDs and the 10μm x 10μm Si APD also have gains of 88,000 (98dB), 1390 (63dB), and 1000 (60dB), respectively.

description: We give necessary conditions for the positivity of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients and SXP coefficients. We deduce necessary conditions for the positivity of the plethystic coefficients. Explicitly, our main result states that if $S^λ(V)$ appears as a summand in the decomposition into irreducibles of $S^μ(S^ν(V))$, then $ν$'s diagram is contained in $λ$'s diagram.

On the Development of Computational Methods to Help in Performing Medical Physics Tasks Leveragin the Portal Dosimetry Application
Creators: name: Rrokaj, Enea
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: The purpose of this project is to build software that can programmatically analyze dosimteric images and reduce the QA time when performing gamma analysis at varying test criteria and evaluating the results of the Winston-Lutz test. The application leverages the Eclipse Scripting API (ESAPI) within the Eclipse Treatment planning system of Varian Medical Systems. The Portal Dosimetry Application of Eclipse is used to collect the image pixels. The pixels are then displayed in a Windows Presentation Foundation using Microsoft Visual Studio and C#.
The purpose of the Gamma Index pass rates software is to benchmark the Portal Dosimetry Application by analyzing an integrated image. However, the software allows for the user to test a range of parameters as opposed to one parameter at the time. The gamma values calculated with custom application were the same with the values calculated with Eclipse. This is because both software uses the same API. However, the custom application significantly reduces calculation time.
The purpose of the Winston-Lutz software is to programmatically analyze an integrated image and determine the isocenter wobble of the machine. Two methods were developed to calculate the isocenter wobble. A manually detect method and a auto detect method. The average error in calculating the isocenter wobble when using the manually detect method is 0.1 mm. The average error in calculating the isocenter wobble when using the auto detect method is 0.4mm.
This work indicates that computer software can be of significant importance when performing QA to check for the dosimetric output and the mechanical stability of the rotation axes of the clinical linear accelerator (linac).
