description: Background modeling is widely used for intelligent surveillance systems to detect moving targets by subtracting the static background components. Most roadside LiDAR object detection methods filter out foreground points by comparing new data points to pre-trained background references based on descriptive statistics over many frames (e.g., voxel density, number of neighbors, maximum distance). However, these solutions are inefficient under heavy traffic, and parameter values are hard to transfer from one scenario to another. In early studies, the probabilistic background modeling methods widely used for the video-based system were considered unsuitable for roadside LiDAR surveillance systems due to the sparse and unstructured point cloud data. In this paper, the raw LiDAR data were transformed into a structured representation based on the elevation and azimuth value of each LiDAR point. With this high-order tensor representation, we break the barrier to allow efficient high-dimensional multivariate analysis for roadside LiDAR background modeling. The Bayesian Nonparametric (BNP) approach integrates the intensity value and 3D measurements to exploit the measurement data using 3D and intensity info entirely. The proposed method was compared against two state-of-the-art roadside LiDAR background models, computer vision benchmark, and deep learning baselines, evaluated at point, object, and path levels under heavy traffic and challenging weather. This multimodal Weighted Bayesian Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) can handle dynamic backgrounds with noisy measurements and substantially enhances the infrastructure-based LiDAR object detection, whereby various 3D modeling for smart city applications could be created.

title: Legal Status of Women in Malawi From Pre-Colonial Period to Independence, 1964.
Creators: name: Maliwa, Emily Nyamazao

description: The longest revolution ever known to mankind would appear to be the women's struggle for equal rights. Thus, the question of women's status in society is generally regarded as a matter of great importance and one whose significance is beet indicated by the fact that it would seem odd in most societies to discuss the status of men vis-a-vis women, since, men have from time immemorial been the leading members of society. There have boot a few exceptional for example, at a certain period in the history of the Kikuyu peoples, women were the loaders in society, until the men revolted against the severity of their subjugation. Similarly, women in Malawi were found in leading positions in some traditional societies at the time observers such as Gamitto and Dr. David Livingstone reached the country. Throughout our study of warren's status in Malawi, we shall try to deal with three principal arguments for and against the contention that the legal and social status of women has always been regarded as subordinate to men's position. These arguments may be summarised as follows: 1. That in African traditional societies where social organisation was based on matrilineage and not patrilineage, women have enjoyed positions of power and influence. This line of argument has sometimes been adduced to support the contention that it would be incorrect to generalise about the subordination of women in society. 2. That whether we speak or the matrilineal or petrilineal society, the woman in so far as relations with her husband were concerned, has always occupied a subordinate position. If there was, the arguments continue, any difference in the status of women between matrilineal and patrilineal societies in so far as relations with their husbands were concerned, it loss a matter of degree and not of substance. 3. That in a study of the status of women in traditional societies, an integrated approach to their relations with spouses and the position women occupied in public life should be attempted rather treating in isolation. Using these arguments as a basis of analysis, we shall try to bring into discussion traditional customs, colonial ordinances/laws, and religious teachings upon which the legal and social status of women in Malawi depended up to 1964. We shall also try and demonstrate that in Malawi the class of people which was regarded as 'chattel' in African traditional society were the captives, during wars - sometimes referred to as "slaves". It was on this class of people that the early Christian missionaries concentrated their work for improving the status of women.

description: We describe Wasserstein isometries of the quantum bit state space with respect to distinguished cost operators. We derive a Wigner-type result for the cost operator involving all the Pauli matrices: in this case, the isometry group consists of unitary or anti-unitary conjugations. In the Bloch sphere model, this means that the isometry group coincides with the classical symmetry group $\mathbf{O}(3).$ On the other hand, for the cost generated by the qubit "clock" and "shift" operators, we discovered non-surjective and non-injective isometries as well, beyond the regular ones. This phenomenon mirrors certain surprising properties of the quantum Wasserstein distance.

description: It is well-known that Resolution proofs can be efficiently simulated by Sherali-Adams (SA) proofs. We show, however, that any such simulation needs to exploit huge coefficients: Resolution cannot be efficiently simulated by SA when the coefficients are written in unary. We also show that Reversible Resolution (a variant of MaxSAT Resolution) cannot be efficiently simulated by Nullstellensatz (NS).
 These results have consequences for total NP search problems. First, we characterise the classes PPADS, PPAD, SOPL by unary-SA, unary-NS, and Reversible Resolution, respectively. Second, we show that, relative to an oracle, PLS $\not\subseteq$ PPP, SOPL $\not\subseteq$ PPA, and EOPL $\not\subseteq$ UEOPL. In particular, together with prior work, this gives a complete picture of the black-box relationships between all classical TFNP classes introduced in the 1990s.

description: Melting of a solid is one of the most ubiquitous phenomena observed in nature. Most solids, when heated, melt from a crystalline state to an isotropic liquid at a characteristic temperature. There are however situations where increase in temperature can induce a transition to a more ordered state. Broadly termed as "inverse melting", experimental realisations of such situations are rare. Here, we report such a phenomenon in the 2-dimensional vortex liquid that forms in a moderately pinned amorphous Re6Zr (a-ReZr) thin film, from direct imaging of the vortex lattice using a scanning tunnelling microscope. At low temperature and magnetic fields, we find that the vortices form a "pinned liquid" , that is characterised by a low mobility of the vortices and vortex density that is spatially inhomogeneous. As the temperature or magnetic field is increased the vortices become more ordered, eventually forming a nearly perfectly ordered vortex lattice. Above this temperature/magnetic field, the ordered vortex lattice melts again into a vortex liquid. This re-entrant transformation from a liquid to solid-like state and then back to a liquid also leaves distinct signature in the magnetotransport properties of the superconductor.

description: Random tensor networks are a powerful toy model for understanding the entanglement structure of holographic quantum gravity. However, unlike holographic quantum gravity, their entanglement spectra are flat. It has therefore been argued that a better model consists of random tensor networks with link states that are not maximally entangled, i.e., have nontrivial spectra. In this work, we initiate a systematic study of the entanglement properties of these networks. We employ tools from free probability, random matrix theory, and one-shot quantum information theory to study random tensor networks with bounded and unbounded variation in link spectra, and in cases where a subsystem has one or multiple minimal cuts. If the link states have bounded spectral variation, the limiting entanglement spectrum of a subsystem with two minimal cuts can be expressed as a free product of the entanglement spectra of each cut, along with a Marchenko-Pastur distribution. For a class of states with unbounded spectral variation, analogous to semiclassical states in quantum gravity, we relate the limiting entanglement spectrum of a subsystem with two minimal cuts to the distribution of the minimal entanglement across the two cuts. In doing so, we draw connections to previous work on split transfer protocols, entanglement negativity in random tensor networks, and Euclidean path integrals in quantum gravity.

description: The automatic, sensor-based assessment of challenging behavior of persons with dementia is an important task to support the selection of interventions. However, predicting behaviors like apathy and agitation is challenging due to the large inter- and intra-patient variability. Goal of this paper is to improve the recognition performance by making use of the observation that patients tend to show specific behaviors at certain times of the day or week. We propose to identify such segments of similar behavior via clustering the distributions of annotations of the time segments. All time segments within a cluster then consist of similar behaviors and thus indicate a behavioral predisposition (BPD). We utilize BPDs by training a classifier for each BPD. Empirically, we demonstrate that when the BPD per time segment is known, activity recognition performance can be substantially improved.

description: Dynamical perturbations modify the states of classical systems in surprising ways and give rise to important applications in science and technology. For example, Floquet engineering exploits the possibility of band formation in the frequency domain when a strong, periodic variation is imposed on parameters such as spring constants. We describe here Kapitza engineering, where a drive field oscillating at a frequency much higher than the characteristic frequencies for the linear response of a system changes the potential energy surface so much that maxima found at equilibrium become local minima, in precise analogy to the celebrated Kapitza pendulum where the unstable inverted configuration, with the mass above rather than below the fulcrum, actually becomes stable. Our starting point is a quantum field theory of the Ginzburg-Devonshire type, suitable for many condensed matter systems, including particularly ferroelectrics and quantum paralectrics. We show that an off-resonance oscillatory electric field generated by a laser-driven THz source can induce ferroelectric order in the quantum-critical limit. Heating effects are estimated to be manageable using pulsed radiation; ``hidden" radiation-induced order can persist to low temperatures without further pumping due to stabilization by strain. We estimate the Ginzburg-Devonshire free-energy coefficients in SrTiO${}_{3}$ using density-functional theory (DFT) and the stochastic self-consistent harmonic approximation accelerated by a machine-learned force field. Although we find that SrTiO${}_{3}$ is not an optimal choice for Kapitza stabilization, we show that scanning for further candidate materials can be performed at the computationally convenient density-functional theory level. We suggest second-harmonic-generation, soft-mode-spectroscopy, and X-ray-diffraction experiments to characterize the induced order.

description: While quantum computing holds great potential in combinatorial optimization, electronic structure calculation, and number theory, the current era of quantum computing is limited by noisy hardware. Many quantum compilation approaches can mitigate the effects of imperfect hardware by optimizing quantum circuits for objectives such as critical path length. Few approaches consider quantum circuits in terms of the set of vendor-calibrated operations (i.e., native gates) available on target hardware. This manuscript expands the analytical and numerical approaches for optimizing quantum circuits at this abstraction level. We present a procedure for combining the strengths of analytical native gate-level optimization with numerical optimization. Although we focus on optimizing Toffoli gates on the IBMQ native gate set, the methods presented are generalizable to any gate and superconducting qubit architecture. Our optimized Toffoli gate implementation demonstrates an $18\%$ reduction in infidelity compared with the canonical implementation as benchmarked on IBM Jakarta with quantum process tomography. Assuming the inclusion of multi-qubit cross-resonance (MCR) gates in the IBMQ native gate set, we produce Toffoli implementations with only six multi-qubit gates, a $25\%$ reduction from the canonical eight multi-qubit implementations for linearly connected qubits.
title: A Study From Malay Manuscripts of the Legend of the Islamic Sufi Saint Ibrahim Ibn Adham.
Creators: name: Jones, Russell Albert

Year: 1968

description: Ibrahim ibn Adham is a Sufi saint who lived in the second century A.H. (or eighth century A.D.) He spent most of his life in the area of the Eastern mediterranean but his legend, in some form or other, has spread through the Arabic-speaking world and has blossomed especially in non-Arabic-speaking Muslim communities, such as the Persian and Malay. He is one of those figures who are frequently mentioned in the literature but have never been systematically studied. The Malay version of his legend is called the Hikayat Sultan Ibrahim ibn Adham; this has never been published, though abridged versions of it were published repeatedly in the last century and in the first quarter of this. Part Two of this thesis consists of an edition of the Malay hikayat, together with an English translation, and notes. Part Three includes a study of Ibn Adham from the earliest and most informative sources, mostly Arabic. Other literary material on him, including all that found in Malay, is considered in Part One of the thesis and in Appendices "A" to "H".

title: Population and Economy in Central Nepal: A Study of the Gurungs.
Creators: name: Macfarlane, A. D. J.
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1972

description: This study of the Gurungs, a mountain tribe of central Nepal, analyses the way in which population growth occurs and its effects on economy and society. Thus it continues the work of Bernard Pignede's Les Gurungs. The population of the Gurungs has increased about five-fold during the last hundred years; at present rates it will increase at least eight-fold in the next century. The way in which this occurs is examined through analysis of the age/sex structure, fertility and mortality patterns. The social factors affecting demographic rates, for example attitudes to children, army service, marriage customs, the treatment of disease, are outlined. It appears that in all demographic and medical features the Gurungs occupy a position half way between the 'ideal type' Asian society and western industrialized countries. The age pyramid is not very steeply tapered, men and women marry relatively late, fertility and mortality rates are low for Nepal. As yet there do not appear to be marked differences between different sub-groups in the population, though the installation of a water pipe in the village is already giving an advantage to some villagers. During the last hundred years the economic system of the Gurungs has entirely altered from one based on trading and pastoral activities to heavy dependence on arable farming and army services. The possibility of future expansion to meet continues population growth is considered by analysing the various resources of forest, land, labour and non-productive goods. Family budgeting is then closely examined in order to see how particular households deal with the problems of earning a living; which have deficits, which have labour surpluses; which are malnourished. The question of whether population pressure is leading to greater inequality, and the enormous effects of army employment on Gurung society are among the topics discussed. Land tax records are used to see how landownership has changed over the last eighty years. The general conclusion is that the outlook is bleak. Unless effective population control is introduced, unemployment, inequality landlessness, malnutrition, erosion, and a number of as yet barely recognized problems will grow very rapidly. Finally population will be stabilized by a rise in the death rate.

Second, we prove preservation of NATP for two kinds of dense/co-dense expansions, that is, the theories of lovely pairs and of H-structures for geometric theories and dense/co-dense expansion on vector spaces. Third, we prove preservation of NATP for the generic predicate expansion and the pair of an algebraically closed field and its distinguished subfield; for the latter, not only NATP, but also preservations of NTP$_1$ and NTP$_2$ are considered. Fourth, we present some proper examples of NATP using the results proved in this paper. Most of all, we show that the model companion of the theory of algebraically closed fields with circular orders (ACFO) is NATP.

description: Frieze groups are discrete subgroups of the full group of isometries of a flat strip. We investigate here the dynamics of specific architected materials generated by acting with a frieze group on a collection of self-coupling seed resonators. We demonstrate that, under unrestricted reconfigurations of the internal structures of the seed resonators, the dynamical matrices of the materials generate the full self-adjoint sector of the stabilized group $C^\ast$-algebra of the frieze group. As a consequence, in applications where the positions, orientations and internal structures of the seed resonators are adiabatically modified, the spectral bands of the dynamical matrices carry a complete set of topological invariants that are fully accounted by the K-theory of the mentioned algebra. By resolving the generators of the K-theory, we produce the model dynamical matrices that carry the elementary topological charges, which we implement with systems of plate resonators to showcase several applications in spectral engineering. The paper is written in an expository style.

description: We prove that the zero-fiber of the moment map of a totally negative quiver has rational singularities. Our proof consists in generalizing dimension bounds on jet spaces of this fiber, which were introduced by Budur. We also transfer the rational singularities property to other moduli spaces of objects in 2-Calabi-Yau categories, based on recent work of Davison. This has interesting arithmetic applications on quiver moment maps and moduli spaces of objects in 2-Calabi-Yau categories. First, we generalize results of Wyss on the asymptotic behaviour of counts of jets of quiver moment maps over finite fields. Moreover, we interpret the limit of counts of jets on a given moduli space as its p-adic volume under a canonical measure analogous to the measure built by Carocci, Orecchia and Wyss on certain moduli spaces of coherent sheaves.

title: The Development of Hindustani in Its Early Stages, Especially as Seen in Translations and Adaptations From Persian.
Creators: name: Malik, Muhammad Baqir
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1939

description: The opening chapter of the thesis comprises a discussion on the name of the popular speech of India, the development of which has been traced in the following pages. Different names have been applied to the language from time to time both by Indians and foreigners. Tracing back the history of all these names and referring to the original sources for authority I have come to the conclusion that Hindustani is the most appropriate name for the language. Conflicting theories had been advanced on the origin of Hindustani. With the help of the latest investigation I have elucidated the fact that Hindustani by origin is a dialect of the language which had been spoken in Delhi and Meerut for centuries, before the settlement of the Muslims in Delhi. The development of Hindustani from the earliest time to 1700 in its birth-place, i.e., the Panjab, has been discussed in Chapter III, from the scanty sources available, with special reference to Khwaja Masud, Amir Khusrau, Fariduddin Ganj Shakar, Sheikh Usman, Sheikh Junaid, Vali Ram and Abdi. Translations and adaptations from Persian language and literature into Hindustani from the earliest time to 1700 form the subject of discussion in Chapter IV. In this connection I have discovered and studied some manuscipts , which have never been referred to before and have described others which have not been described. The lives of Hindustani authors have been compiled from original sources. Their works , which are mostly in the form of unpublished MSS. , have been discussed in chronological order to give an idea of the development of the literature and language. Persian phrases, idioms, etc., which have helped the development of old Hindustani and most of which are now obsolete have been also included. Characteristics of old Hindustani , which are a special feature of the old language have been discussed in Chapter V to point out the essential differences of the old and modern Hindustani. Copious examples in chronological order from the works discussed in the foregoing chapter have been collected for illustration. The development of language and marked changes in the language affected in different times have been discuseed in the last chapter. Dates with possible accuracy are assigned. A concise grammar of the old langauge is appended to further elucidate the marked development of the language.

description: The Satavahanas, who are also called Andhrabhrityas in the Puranas, ruled in Dakshinapatha, the Dekkan, for more than three centuries, roughly from the 1st quarter of the 1st cen. B.C. to the 2nd half of the 3rd cen. A.D. Throughout this period we find the Satavahana kings constantly in conflict with their contemporary rivals, the Sakas, who ruled in Gujarat. The earliest capital of the Satavahana Empire known from literary and archaeological sources is Pratishthana, which is identified with the modern Paithana on the upper Godavari. In the Aurangabad district of Hyderabad State. Saks pressure from the west, however, forced them to move southward and eventually gave rise to a second capital at Amaravati, on the southern bank of the which became the permanent seat of the later atavahana kings. The two most important events of the Saka-Satavahana struggle for supremacy in the Dekkan were, the complete destruction of the Kshaharatas or the family of Nahapana by king Gautamiputra Sri Satakarni, and the defeat of the Satavahana King Vashisthiputra Satakarni by Mahakshatrapa Rudradamana of Ujjain. The flourishing trade of the western Indian ports, which are described by the classical geographers as the great commercial centres of India, attracted both the rival powers. Although the conquests of Audradaman considerably weakened the Satavahana Empire yet the reign of Yajnasri Satakarni saw a temporary revival of their power. The dynasty, however, came to as end in the 1st quarter of the 3rd cen. A.D. The present thesis "A Cultural History of the Satavahana Dynasty" is divided into six chapters as follows : (1) Geographical Sketch of the Satavahana Empire. (2) Brief history of the Satavahana Dynasty. (3) Administrative Arrangements. (4) Economic Conditions and Maritime Activities. (5) Art and Architecture. (6) Social and Religious Conditions. Although the thesis is mainly based on literary, epigraphical, numismatic and other sources, particular attention has been paid to the Archaeoloical material available. In order to simplify the history of the period six maps have been included to illustrate important aspects of Satavahana rule in the Dekkan. The thesis is provided with appendices and a complete bibliographical list of the books consulted.

description: We analyze the conservation properties of various discretizations of the system of compressible Euler equations for shock-free flows, with special focus on the treatment of the energy equation and on the induced discrete equations for other thermodynamic quantities. The analysis is conducted both theoretically and numerically and considers two important factors characterizing the various formulations, namely the choice of the energy equation and the splitting used in the discretization of the convective terms. The energy equations analyzed are total and internal energy, total enthalpy, pressure, speed of sound and entropy. In all the cases examined the discretization of the convective terms is made with locally conservative and kinetic-energy preserving schemes. Some important relations between the various formulations are highlighted and the performances of the various schemes are assessed by considering two widely used test cases. Together with some popular formulations from the literature, also new and potentially useful ones are analyzed.

description: A potential framework to estimate the volume of water stored in a porous storage reservoir from seismic data is neural networks. In this study, the man-made groundwater reservoir is modeled as a coupled poroviscoelastic-viscoelastic medium, and the underlying wave propagation problem is solved using a three-dimensional discontinuous Galerkin method coupled with an Adams-Bashforth time stepping scheme. The wave problem solver is used to generate databases for the neural network-based machine learning model to estimate the water volume. In the numerical examples, we investigate a deconvolution-based approach to normalize the effect from the source wavelet in addition to the network's tolerance for noise levels. We also apply the SHapley Additive exPlanations method to obtain greater insight into which part of the input data contributes the most to the water volume estimation. The numerical results demonstrate the capacity of the fully connected neural network to estimate the amount of water stored in the porous storage reservoir.

description: Transport of dense core vesicles (DCVs) in neurons is crucial for distributing molecules like neuropeptides and growth factors. We studied the experimental trajectories of dynein-driven directed movement of DCVs in the ALA neuron C. elegans over a duration of up to 6 seconds. We analysed the DCV movement in three strains of C. elegans: 1) with normal kinesin-1 function, 2) with reduced function in kinesin light chain 2 (KLC-2), and 3) a null mutation in kinesin light chain 1 (KLC-1). We find that DCVs move superdiffusively with displacement variance $var(x) \sim t^2$ in all three strains with low reversal rates and frequent immobilization of DCVs. The distribution of DCV displacements fits a beta-binomial distribution with the mean and the variance following linear and quadratic growth patterns, respectively. We propose a simple heterogeneous random walk model to explain the observed superdiffusive retrograde transport behaviour of DCV movement. This model involves a random probability with the beta density for a DCV to resume its movement or remain in the same position.

title: Animals in Ancient Arabic Poetry Excluding the Camel and Horse.
Creators: name: Al Nowaihi, Muhammad M. D.
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1942

description: The thesis consists of two parts. The first part is a detailed study of all animal life (except the horse and camel) as mentioned in poetry. Each article deals with one animal under the following heads: 1) The type-situation to which it is mentioned. 2) The animal as seen by the poet and the account of its habits. 3) Its "personality". 4) Arab feeling towards it and the reasons for this. 5) Where possible identification of the species with relevant quotations from modern travellers. This is the first comprehensive study of this field of Arabic literature it is based on a thorough reading of the poets and consists of facts discovered and exhibited for the first time. The second part is a historical and critical study of the facts as literature. It contains: 1) Recapitulation, a conspectus of the facts set out in part one tabulated according to motives. 2) Precise definition of the part played by animal lore in ancient poetry and its literary value. 3) Accuracy of the pasts as students of natural history. 4) Study of the historical development of this branch of poetry, its origin, its gradual progress through pre. Islamic, early Islamic and Umaiyad periods, the literary characteristics of schools and the individual tendencies of poets and how far these influenced the development, particularly the changes effected by the new state of affairs brought about by Islam in all spheres of life. 5) Finally, a sketch of this field in later poetry. The second part is an attempt to discover the forces which caused the development of this, branch of literature and also to assess its value. Further other features of the literature never studied before are necessarily involved.

description: Unsupervised anomaly detection in time-series has been extensively investigated in the literature. Notwithstanding the relevance of this topic in numerous application fields, a comprehensive and extensive evaluation of recent state-of-the-art techniques taking into account real-world constraints is still needed. Some efforts have been made to compare existing unsupervised time-series anomaly detection methods rigorously. However, only standard performance metrics, namely precision, recall, and F1-score are usually considered. Essential aspects for assessing their practical relevance are therefore neglected. This paper proposes an in-depth evaluation study of recent unsupervised anomaly detection techniques in time-series. Instead of relying solely on standard performance metrics, additional yet informative metrics and protocols are taken into account. In particular, (i) more elaborate performance metrics specifically tailored for time-series are used; (ii) the model size and the model stability are studied; (iii) an analysis of the tested approaches with respect to the anomaly type is provided; and (iv) a clear and unique protocol is followed for all experiments. Overall, this extensive analysis aims to assess the maturity of state-of-the-art time-series anomaly detection, give insights regarding their applicability under real-world setups and provide to the community a more complete evaluation protocol.
