description: Most recent studies on deep learning based speech enhancement (SE) focused on improving denoising performance. However, successful SE applications require striking a desirable balance between denoising performance and computational cost in real scenarios. In this study, we propose a novel parameter pruning (PP) technique, which removes redundant channels in a neural network. In addition, a parameter quantization (PQ) technique was applied to reduce the size of a neural network by representing weights with fewer cluster centroids. Because the techniques are derived based on different concepts, the PP and PQ can be integrated to provide even more compact SE models. The experimental results show that the PP and PQ techniques produce a compacted SE model with a size of only 10.03% compared to that of the original model, resulting in minor performance losses of 1.43% (from 0.70 to 0.69) for STOI and 3.24% (from 1.85 to 1.79) for PESQ. The promising results suggest that the PP and PQ techniques can be used in a SE system in devices with limited storage and computation resources.

description: Language teachers recognize the importance of clear pronunciation for effective communication.  Pronunciation is a crucial aspect of learning to speak, and students often request additional class time for it. Teachers typically struggle with incorporating pronunciation into their curriculum, despite its importance.  Teachers must integrate pronunciation into speaking-oriented classrooms in a way that aligns with the course's oral communication goals (Murphy, 1991).

description: The Importance of Posed Facial Expression Production and Presentation Method on Authenticity Discrimination People’s ability to classify emotional facial expressions is very good, however, their ability to determine their authenticity is much poorer. Generally, emotion recognition research investigates differences in authenticity discrimination by contrasting people’s perceptions to ‘posed’ and ‘genuine’ expressions. However, such a broad categorization is inadequate for accurately capturing decoder perceptions. We argue that the technique used to produce posed expressions significantly affects how decoders perceive and discriminate authenticity. Second, that decoders perception is affected by seeing these in a dynamic or static format. To demonstrate the importance of production method and presentation format, in a series of studies decoders were assessed on various facial expression types. Senders were filmed as they experienced genuine surprise in response to a jack-in-the-box (Genuine), while other senders faked surprise with no preparation (Improvised) or after having first experienced genuine surprise (Rehearsed). Decoders rated the genuineness and intensity of these expressions, and the confidence of their judgment. It was found that both expression type and presentation format impacted decoder perception and accurate discrimination. Genuine surprise achieved the highest ratings of genuineness, intensity, and judgmental confidence (dynamic only), and was fairly accurately discriminated from posed surprise expressions. Rehearsed expressions were perceived as more genuine (in dynamic presentation), whereas Improvised were seen as more intense (in static presentation). However, both were poorly discriminated as not being genuine. Overall, dynamic stimuli improved authenticity discrimination and perceptual differences between expressions. Our findings demonstrate the importance for research to consider the type of posed expression used and presentation format.

description: GeV gamma ray is an important observation target of DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) for indirect dark matter searching and high energy astrophysics. We present in this work a set of accurate instrument response functions of DAMPE (DmpIRFs) including the effective area, point-spread function and energy dispersion that are crucial for the gamma-ray data analysis based on the high statistics simulation data. A dedicated software named DmpST is developed to facilitate the scientific analyses of DAMPE gamma-ray data. Considering the limited number of photons and the angular resolution of DAMPE, the maximum likelihood method is adopted in the DmpST to better disentangle different source components. The basic mathematics and the framework regarding this software are also introduced in this paper.

description: In hybrid force-velocity control, the robot can use velocity control in some directions to follow a trajectory, while performing force control in other directions to maintain contacts with the environment regardless of positional errors. We call this way of executing a trajectory hybrid servoing. We propose an algorithm to compute hybrid force-velocity control actions for hybrid servoing. We quantify the robustness of a control action and make trade-offs between different requirements by formulating the control synthesis as optimization problems. Our method can efficiently compute the dimensions, directions and magnitudes of force and velocity controls. We demonstrated by experiments the effectiveness of our method in several contact-rich manipulation tasks. Link to the video: https://youtu.be/KtSNmvwOenM.

T y p e m a t e r i a l Holotype, Sabah, Danum Valley, B.R.L., f.i.t., 14-16.II.2007, G. de Rougemont leg. (CROU). Paratypes: 5 exx., same provenance as the holotype (CROU, MSNV).
D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 5.5-5.9 mm. Body shiny, reddish, antennae reddish, legs yellowish-red with reddish-brown knees with basal ¾ of the femora pale yellow. Second antennomere shorter than the first, third longer than the second, fourth to tenth strongly transverse. Eyes shorter than the postocular region in dorsal view. Body devoid of reticulation. Puncturation of head and pronotum fine, absent on the longitudinal median band of both. Granulation of the elytra fine, very superficial and little evident. Four basal sulci of the free abdominal tergites deep. Aedeagus: Figs, 120-121; spermatheca: 122.
 C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The aedeagus of this new species is more similar to that of T. indicus CAMERON, 1939 from Bengal, than to that T. borneensis CAMERON, 1943 from Borneo, of which I have seen specimens of the type series. The new species differs from T. indicus in the apex of the aedeagus, which is very narrow in ventral view (less narrow in T. indicus), in the distance between the "crista apicalis" and bottom of the curved preapical portion which measures 0.1 mm, (0.05 mm in T. indicus). The internal sclerotised piece of the aedeagus of the new species is less strong than that of T. indicus. The male holotype of T. indicus is labelled "Samsing, 1800, Kalimpong, Bengal, XII.1933, Balwant Singh, in soil under elephant dung, Tetrabothrus indicus Cam., Type."(MHNL).
E t y m o l o g y: The pale yellow colour of the basal ¾ of the femora suggested the name of the new species.

The role of social behaviour and spacing in populations of the bush rat, Rattus fuscipes
Creators: name: Woodside, Dedee Patricia
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1983

description: Social behaviour and social spacing was studied in natural and enclosed populations of the bush rat Rattus fuscipes. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of social behaviour in the population biology of this species. The approach taken involved the manipulation of resources and spatial environments of rats in enclosures in order to reveal details on the relationship b tween social behaviour and resource availability (primarily resource distribution)and to reveal the behavioural mechanisms responsible for the partitioning of resources among conspecifics. 71 trapping and tracking study in the field was used to reveal aspects of the social structure of natural populations and changes in spacing associated with natural changes in resource distribution. 71 comparison of information from three widely separated populations (from Kioloa, N,S,W., Lees Creek, A.C.T. and Mt Glorious, Qld.) was used to establish the general demographic and social characteristics of the species (using similarities in the data) and to establish the range of social responses to varying environments (differences in data.) The similarities in demography of rats in the three areas were as follows: (a)there was an annual cycle in abundance of animals and annual turnover of membership in the population, (b) the sequence of life history events in each cohort resulted in similar timing of peaks and depressions in population size in all study areas;

description: The temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity and magnetoresistance of Xe-ion beam sputtered Fe-Cr multilayers has been investigated. The electrical resistivity between 5 and 300 K in the fully ferromagnetic state, obtained by applying a field beyond the saturation field (H_sat) necessary for the antiferromagnetic(AF)-ferromagnetic(FM) field-induced transition, shows evidence of spin-disorder resistivity as in crystalline Fe and an s-d scattering contribution (as in 3d metals and alloys). The sublattice magnetization m(T) in these multilayers has been calculated in terms of the planar and interlayer exchange energies. The additional spin-dependent scattering Δρ(T) = ρ(T,H=0)_AF - ρ(T,H=H_sat)_FM in the AF state over a wide range of temperature is found to be proportional to the sublattice magnetization, both Δρ(T) and m(T) reducing along with the antiferromagnetic fraction. At intermediate fields, the spin-dependent part of the electrical resistivity (ρ_s (T)) fits well to the power law ρ_s (T) = b - cT^αwhere c is a constant and b and αare functions of H. At low fields α\approx 2 and the intercept b decreases with H much the same way as the decrease of Δρ(T) with T. A phase diagram (T vs. H_sat) is obtained for the field- induced AF to FM transition. Comparisons are made between the present investigation and similar studies using dc magnetron sputtered and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown Fe-Cr multilayers.

description: This paper presents multiwavelength photometric catalogues of the last two Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF), the massive galaxy clusters Abell 370 and RXC J2248.7-4431. The photometry ranges from imaging performed on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to ground based Very Large Telescope (VLT) and Spitzer/IRAC, in collaboration with the ASTRODEEP team, and using the ASTRODEEP pipeline. While the main purpose of this paper is to release the catalogues, we also perform, as a proof of concept, a brief analysis of z > 6 objects selected using drop-out method, as well as spectroscopically confirmed sources and multiple images in both clusters. While dropout methods yield a sample of high-z galaxies, the addition of longer wavelength data reveals that as expected the samples have substantial contamination at the ~30-45% level by dusty galaxies at lower redshifts. Furthermore, we show that spectroscopic redshifts are still required to unambiguously determine redshifts of multiply imaged systems. Finally, the now publicly available ASTRODEEP catalogues were combined for all HFFs and used to explore stellar properties of a large sample of 20,000 galaxies across a large photometric redshift range. The powerful magnification provided by the HFF clusters allows us an exploration of the properties of galaxies with intrinsic stellar masses as low as $M_* \gtrsim 10^7M_{\odot}$ and intrinsic star formation rates $\mbox{SFRs}\sim 0.1\mbox{-}1M_\odot/\mbox yr$ at z > 6.

The language of Niuafo'ou Island

Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988

description: Niuafo'ou shares with its neighbouring Polynesian languages Tongan and 'Uvean (Bataillon 1932) the same inventory of segmental phonemes which consists of five vowels and twelve consonants. Phonetic long vowels and diphthongs occur, but long vowels are analysed either as sequences of two identical vowels (I.2.2. ( C-1)) or as protraction of a single vowel accompanying word intensity emphasis (I.3.3.2.(A)) and diphthongs as sequences of two non-identical vowels (I.2.2.(C-2)). With the exception of , which has an allophone unique to Niuafo'ou, Niuafo'ou phonemes have more or less the same phonetic realizations as those of Tongan and, possibly also of 'Uvean. Like Tongan, Niuafo'ou also possesses what C.M. Churchward (1953) calls definitive accent. Definitive accent, or definitive stress as it is referred to in this study, is in fact a superasegmental morpheme and, and as such, carries a semantic function of its own. semantic effect of definitive stress will be with in IV of Part its basic position, however, in Chapter III of Part I. with the position of other stresses, described Some interjections and certain idiomatic expressions like daily greetings show deviations from the normal phonological patterns. they occur (IIL9.2.2., Appendix). deviations will be dealt with as Chapter I of Part I deals with the description of segmental phonemes and their phonetic realizations. The structure of the syllable will also be considered. Chapter II deals with the structure of morphemes and words. As it will be seen, the structure of words has much relevance as to the position of stress. The final chapter, Chapter III deals with the description of stress.

description: This work develops an historically substantiated anthropological thesis about non-state local governance and its relations with the State in Solomon Islandsover time. Set in the context of the coup and subsequent crisis of the State in Solomon Islands, the thesis takes as an example Kolombangara, a forest resource rich Western Province island. The thesis argues that the consequences of successive local negotiations of world influences from early contact times through colonialism and on to the post Independence period are embedded in present-day social structures and political events at the local level. This process of local negotiation draws on cultural resources held within the local society but in so doing repositions actors in relation to those resources, creating social tensions that further drive politics at the local level. The form of these negotiations is specific to any one place in Solomon Islands. Nevertheless, the logic applied by actors in any one place is informative of processes more widespread across the country. For Kolombangara these processes begin with a reorganisation of frontier period (late C19) maritime exchange oriented 'house groups' into landoriented descent groups as a response to early colonialism. A process of social mobility follows this as the State is nationalised, resulting in stratification of local society (the 'Honiara elite'). This articulates with a fractionation of loca] society into groups competing for 'large scale' or 'small scale' forest resource development. The crosscutting social differentiation drives conflict between 'entrepreneurial landowners' and ' raditionalist smallholders' over forest resources and generates competing island-level political associations. Such island-level dynamics drive the Western Province 'statehood' agenda for control of resource management and revenue distribution. This development pathway competes at the national level against the interests of resource-poor provinces. The result has been one of the major political dynamics involved in the recent crisis of the State in Solomon Islands.

description: We investigate vortex solutions to the Abelian Higgs field equations in a four dimensional de Sitter spacetime background. We obtain both static and dynamic solutions with axial symmetry that are generalizations of the Nielsen-Olesen gauge vortices in flat spacetime. The static solution is located in the static patch of de Sitter space. We numerically solve the field equations in an inflationary (big bang) patch and find a time dependent vortex soution, whose effect to create a deficit angle in the spacetime. We show that this solution can be interpreted in terms of a renormalization group flow in accord with a generalized {$c$}-theorem, providing evidence in favour of a dS/CFT correspondence.

 HOLOTYPE: AMNH 169467, adult male, collected at Utcuyacu, 4800 ft, ca. 11.12S, 75.28W (Vaurie, 1972), Junín, Peru, on 12 December 1919, by Harry Watkins.
 COMMENTS: Parkes cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description. Parkes found that T. r. fulvicervix described from northern Bolivia and applied to both northern Bolivian and southern Peruvian specimens did not apply to those from southern Peru, leaving them without a name. He introduced the name inca for these birds and referred to Zimmer (1943d: 1) for a list of the localities in southern Peru from which fulvicervix (5 inca) had been recorded: Paltaypampa, Ropaybamba, Garita del Sol, San Miguel Bridge, Ocobamba [Occobamba], Santa Ana, and Marcapata. All of these are in the provinces of Junin and Cuzco. Zimmer (1943d: 3) examined specimens from the following localities in Junin and Cuzco and the specimens are in AMNH. I consider them paratypes of inca: Chanchamayo, AMNH 513547–513549, two males, one female; Utcuyacu, AMNH 169466, male; Idma, AMNH 145714–145728, 145731, 145734– 145738, 513550, 513551, 17 males, six females; Cosnipata, AMNH 513455, male. All of these specimens were in AMNH when Zimmer examined them. AMNH 145729, 145730, 145732, and 145733 were exchanged to USNM in 1921, were not available to Zimmer in 1943, and would not have been part of Parkes’ type series of inca.

title: Functional paper for paper-based microsampling and analysis techniques
Creators: name: Hillscher, Laura Marie
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2025

description: Recent advances in the sensitivity of chemical analytical instruments, as well as their miniaturization, have led to increasing interest in the use of micro samples, both for research purposes, as well as for sample collection at home or in medical facilities. Paper is by far the most commonly used substrates for micro collection of biofluids such as whole blood samples. MS is the preferred analytical method for analyzing DBS samples. With the development of novel paper-based ionization methods for MS, such as Paper-Spray MS, the evolution of these micro sampling devices into sophisticated sample preparation chips is becoming increasingly the subject of ongoing research. 
The aim of the project presented in this thesis is the development and investigation of functional paper for the simplification of sample preparation steps targeting the analysis of micro samples.
Art for money's sake : the art and craft enterprises on Bathurst Island
Creators: name: West, Margaret K.C.

description: One of the recurrent themes in Aboriginal policy over the years has been the need to promote Aboriginal self-sufficiency by encouraging avenues of productive activity. Particularly for those groups living in areas that are geographically, socially, economically and politically remote from centres of employment and marketing, the production of art and craft has been seen as one of the few viable enterprises available. One of the main attractions of this activity is that it draws upon traditional practices and skills, which because of their unique have some economic negotiability in the wider Australian community. Exactly how successful such art and craft enterprise has been in fulfilling the desired policy of economic self-sufficiently will be examined in this thesis with particular reference to the art and craft enterprises on Bathurst Island. Here, as in other Aboriginal communities throughout the Northern Territory, the people express themselves through their distinctive artistic products; products which captured the interest of a number of early visitors to the Territory. This resulted in some early collections of material culture being acquired for museums and private interests. However, as it was believed in the early part of the C20th that Aborigines were on the decline, there was no government policy directed towards their economic development. It wsas rather on the missions that commercialized art and craft was fostered to encourage the economic independence of the Aborigines as well as to raise money for the missions (Morphy 1983 : 38) As early as 1953 the Methodists at Yirrkala and Milingimbio and the Church Missionary society missionaries at Oenpelli and Groote Eylandt were encouraging their artists to produce bark paintings and other artifacts for sale (Williams 1976, Carroll 1983). This occurred at their other missions in Arnhem Land also at Elcho and Goulburn Islands and at Roper River and Numbulwah. In Central Australia other missions followed suit, with the Lutherans at Hermannsburg fostering tourist style artifacts and carvings and then watercolour painting for sale in the 1940’s. At Ernabella, just over the NT border in SA, the Presbyterians encouraged artefact carving and introduced wool weaving as a cottage industry in 1948 (Tamura 1985).
Discrete Breathers in Anisotropic Ferromagnetic Spin Chains

description: We prove the existence of discrete breathers (time-periodic, spatially localized solutions) in weakly coupled ferromagnetic spin chains with easy-axis anisotropy. Using numerical methods we then investigate the continuation of discrete breather solutions as the intersite coupling is increased. We find a band of frequencies for which the 1-site breather continues all the way to the soliton solution in the continuum. There is a second band, which abuts the first, in which the 1-site breather does not continue to the soliton solution, but a certain multi-site breather does. This banded structure continues, so that in each band there is a particular multi-site breather which continues to the soliton solution. A detailed analysis is presented, including an exposition of how the bifurcation pattern changes as a band is crossed. The linear stability of breathers is analyzed. It is proved that 1-site breathers are stable at small coupling, provided a non-resonance condition holds, and an extensive numerical stability analysis of 1-site and multisite breathers is performed. The results show alternating bands of stability and instability as the coupling increases.

description: Using models of the Earth's core evolution and the length of the day observations the change of the dimensionless geodynamo parameters is considered. The evolutionary model includes cooling of the liquid adiabatic core, growing solid core, and the region in the outer part of the core with a subadiabatic temperature gradient. The model covers time period 4.5Ga in the past till 1.5Gy to the future, and produce evolution of the energy sources of the thermal and compositional convection, spatial scales of the convective zone. These quantities are used for Ekman, Rayleigh and Rossby numbers estimates. So far these numbers determine regime of the geomagnetic field generation, we discuss evolution of the geomagnetic field over Earth's evolution.

description: In the present article, the robustness of entanglement in two qubits maximally entangled mixed states (MEME) have been studied under quantum decoherence channels. Here we consider bit flip, phase flip, bit-phase-flip, amplitude damping, phase damping and depolarization channels. To quantify the entanglement, the concurrence has been used as an entanglement measure. During this study interesting results have been found for sudden death and birth of entanglement under bit flip and bit-phase-flip channels. While amplitude damping channel produces entanglement sudden death and does not allow re-birth of entanglement. On the other hand, two qubits MEMS exhibit the robust character against the phase flip, phase damping and depolarization channels. The elegant behavior of all the quantum channels have been investigated with varying parameter of quantum state MEMS in different cases.

description: The flux lattice driven by a uniform driving force in a superconductor with hot, strong, sharp and randomly distributed pinning centers, with applied magnetic field half the matching field is simulated. At low temperature both a non activated regime, where flux motion occurs within a robust percolative flux flow channel, and an activated regime are obtained depending on the sample preparation. These two regimes exhibit distinct resistivity and magnetic induction. In the non activated regime, a clear fingerprint is observed in the autocorrelation function of the longitudinal resitivity, which oscillates at a frequency close to the inverse lattice diffusion time.

description: We provide and analyze a second order scheme for the model describing the functional distributions of particles performing anomalous motion with exponential Debye pattern and no-time-taking jumps eliminated, and power-law jump length. The model is derived in [M. Chen, J. Shi, W. Deng, arXiv:1809.03263], being called the space fractional diffusion equation with the time Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative. The designed schemes are unconditionally stable and have the second order global truncation error with the nonzero initial condition, being theoretically proved and numerically verified by two methods (a prior estimate with $L^2$-norm and mathematical induction with $l_\infty$ norm). Moreover, the optimal estimates are obtained.

description: Although the kinematics and dynamics of spherical robots (SRs) on flat horizontal and inclined 2D surfaces are thoroughly investigated, their rolling behavior on generic 3D terrains has remained unexplored. This paper derives the kinematics equations of the most common SRs configurations rolling over 3D surfaces. First, the kinematics equations for a geometrical sphere rolling over a 3D surface are derived along with the characterization of the modeling method. Next, a brief review of current SR mechanical configurations is presented as well as a novel classification for spherical robots based on their kinematics. Then, considering the mechanical constraints of each category, the kinematics equations for each group of spherical robots are presented. Afterwards, a path tracking method is utilized for a desired 3D trajectory. Finally, simulations are carried out to validate the developed models and the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
