description: We present accurate relative ages for a sample of 55 Galactic globular clusters. The ages have been obtained by measuring the difference between the horizontal branch and the turnoff in two, internally photometrically homogeneous databases. The mutual consistency of the two data sets has been assessed by comparing the ages of 16 globular clusters in common between the two databases. We have also investigated the consistency of our relative age determination within the recent stellar model framework. All clusters with [Fe/H]-0.8 are ~1 Gyr younger than the most metal poor ones, with a relatively small age dispersion, though the metal rich sample is still too small to allow firmer conclusions. There is no correlation of the cluster age with the Galactocentric distance. We briefly discuss the implication of these observational results for the formation history of the Galaxy.

description: Road traffic crashes are one of the global public health concerns and remain at high priority in many countries. Driving under the influence of drugs increases the risk of crashes through altering the driver's mental state and reactions. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between driving pattern and substance abuse among drivers in Kerman, a city in Iran, in order to enable policy makers to make the necessary decisions in planning and executing guidelines. The population of this descriptive study was drivers involved in road traffic crashes admitted to the emergency department of Shahid Bahonar university hospital in summer 2019. After obtaining demographic information, type of vehicle, type of collision and pattern of serious injury, 222 eligible drivers were tested for tramadol, cannabis, amphetamine, methamphetamine, morphine and methadone using one step urine test strips. Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, Whitney-Mann and Kruskal-Wallis tests and one-way Anova test was performed using SPSS version 22. The statistics showed that most drivers were male (90.5%), married (63.5%), age group (18-30) and had positive urine test (76.6%). In addition to uniqueness of dual-drug detection among male drivers (7.7%), the most common substances detected were methadone and morphine with 34.7% and 27.5% respectively. The most common injuries were lower limb and hip injuries mostly among motorcyclists. The results indicated that characteristics of being under 30’s, married, school dropout, self-employed and motorcyclist had significant relationship with substance use. Substance use, especially methadone, has undoubtedly a significant role in both road traffic crashes and resulted injuries. The high rate of injuries on drivers influenced by methadone in traffic crashes needs to be screened and prevented. It is recommended to not only authoritatively deal with the excessive supply of methadone in the community but also restricting the driving of people receiving methadone treatment.

description: In der Wettbewerbstheorie finden sich ganz unterschiedliche Aussagen darüber, was Wettbewerb in der Realität ausmacht. Das Verhalten der Marktpartner spielt dabei eine zentrale Rolle. Die Verhaltensweisen der Akteure sind aber in Abhängigkeit von der jeweiligen Marktphase zu sehen. Ein Unternehmer, der auf einem Wachstumsmarkt agiert, wird typischerweise andere Maßnahmen ergreifen als sein Kollege, der sich einem gesättigten Markt gegenübersieht. Die Frage ist nun, inwieweit die Ergebnisse der Wettbewerbstheorie, unter der Berücksichtigung der Ergebnisse der Marktprozesstheorie, erweitert werden können. Im folgenden werden zunächst die Ziele des Wettbewerbs, wie sie typischerweise in der Literatur zu finden sind, aufgezeigt. Danach bedarf es einer Erläuterung der, für das Verständnis der unterschiedlichen Positionen wichtigen, Dilemma- und Harmoniethesen. Die divergierenden Ansichten der Wettbewerbstheorie gliedern sich in zwei Grundtypen, die in einem weiteren Kapitel allgemein und jeweils anhand eines Beispiels erklärt werden. Das letzte Kapitel stellt den Versuch dar, die Bedingungen und die daraus resultierenden Verhaltensweisen der Marktakteure auf stagnierenden Märkten mit den Grundtypen der Wettbewerbstheorie in Verbindung zu bringen. Das Ziel dabei ist, Erkenntnisse darüber zu gewinnen, wie das empirisch beobachtbare Marktgeschehen, unter der Nebenbedingung der verwendeten Wettbewerbstheorie, zu beurteilen ist.

description: While there are clear racial/ethnic disparities in child restraint system (CRS) use, to date no studies have identified mediators that quantitatively explain the relationship between race and CRS use. Therefore, the objective of this study was to provide an example of how a proportion-eliminated approach to mediation may be particularly useful in understanding the complex relationship between race and CRS use. Sixty-two mothers with a child between 4-8 years old completed a survey and had their CRS use assessed by a Child Passenger Safety Technician using a structured assessment based on the 2018 American Academy of Pediatrics’ Best Practice guidelines. Recruitment and data collection occurred in Birmingham, Alabama between June 2018 and January 2019. We used chi-squared tests, logistic regressions, and a proportion-eliminated approach to mediation to compare our variables of interest and to estimate the amount of the association between racial group membership and errors in restraint use that may be explained by sociodemographic, psychosocial, and parenting variables. Before mediation, Nonwhite mothers in this sample had a 7.38 greater odds of having an error in CRS use than White mothers. Mediation analyses indicated that being married and self-reported seatbelt use explained 47% and 35% of the effect of race on CRS use errors, respectively. A proportion-eliminated approach to mediation may be particularly useful in child passenger safety research aiming to inform the development of interventions tailored for racial minority populations.

description: Hole spins in Ge/SiGe heterostructure quantum dots have emerged as promising qubits for quantum computation. The strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC), characteristic of heavy-hole states in Ge, enables fast and all-electrical qubit control. However, SOC also increases the susceptibility of spin qubits to charge noise. While qubit coherence can be significantly improved by operating at sweet spots with reduced hyperfine or charge noise sensitivity, the latter ultimately limits coherence, underlining the importance of understanding and reducing charge noise at its source. In this work, we study the voltage-induced hysteresis commonly observed in SiGe-based quantum devices and show that the dominant charge fluctuators are localized at the semiconductor-oxide interface. By applying increasingly negative gate voltages to Hall bar and quantum dot devices, we investigate how the hysteretic filling of interface traps impacts transport metrics and charge noise. We find that the gate-induced accumulation and trapping of charge at the SiGe-oxide interface leads to an increased electrostatic disorder, as probed by transport measurements, as well as the activation of low-frequency relaxation dynamics, resulting in slow drifts and increased charge noise levels. Our results highlight the importance of a conservative device tuning strategy and reveal the critical role of the semiconductor-oxide interface in SiGe heterostructures for spin qubit applications.
Hot Disk Corona and Magnetic Turbulence in Radio-Quiet Active Galactic Nuclei: Observational Constraints

description: We compile a sample consisting of 56 radio-quiet active galactic nuclei so as to investigate statistical properties of hot corona of accretion disks from {\em ASCA} observations. The black-hole masses in the sample are estimated via several popular methods and the bolometric luminosities from the multi-wavelength continuum. This allows us to estimate the Eddington ratio (${\cal E}\equiv L_{\rm Bol}/L_{\rm Edd}$) so that the undergoing physical processes can be tested via hard X-ray data. We find a strong correlation between ${\cal F}_{\rm X}\equiv L_{\rm 2-10keV}/L_{\rm Bol}$ and ${\cal E}$ as ${\cal F}_{\rm X}\propto {\cal E}^{-0.64}$ with a multivariate regression. This indicates that the release of gravitational energy in the hot corona is controlled by the Eddington ratio. On the other hand, the correlation between the hard X-ray spectral index ($Γ$) and ${\cal E}$ depends critically on the types of objects: $Γ$ is nearly constant ($Γ\propto {\cal E}^0$) in broad-line Seyfert 1's (BLS1s), whereas $Γ\propto \log {\cal E}^{0.18}$ in narrow-line Seyfert 1's (NLS1s), although not very significant. We can set constraints on the forms of magnetic stress tensor on the condition that ${\cal F}_{\rm X}$ is proportional to the fraction $f$ of gravitational energy dissipated in the hot corona and that $f$ is proportional to magnetic energy density in the disk. We find that the shear stress tensor $t_{rϕ}\propto P_{\rm gas}$ is favored by the correlation in the present sample, where $P_{\rm gas}$ is the gas pressure.

description: In this paper, we continue development of the theory of contractive Markov systems (CMS) initiated in \cite{Wer1}. Also, this work can be seen as a small contribution to the theory of equilibrium states. We construct an energy function on the code space, using the coding map from \cite{Wer3}, and show that the generalized Markov measure associated with an irreducible CMS is a unique equilibrium state for this energy function if the vertex sets form an open partition of the state space of the CMS and the restrictions of the probability functions on their vertex sets are Dini-continuous and bounded away from zero.

description: The overall objective of this paper is to measure the impact of the undesirable outputs from NAFTA (agricultural production and trade) on the environment by years in post-NAFTA period. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to measure environmental efficiency by considering desirable (corn production) and undesirable (nitrogen) outputs in fifteen states. DEA allowed us to measure the level of nitrogen pollution to be reduced by modeling undesirable output in efficiency evaluation. Data from 15 states (Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, South Dakota, Texas and Wisconsin) on corn production, land use and nitrogen fertilizer from 1994-2008 (post-NAFTA) were considered. The results indicated environmental inefficiency, nitrogen pollution and land use inefficiency were increasing over the years in the post-NAFTA period.

description: With the aim of resolving theoretical issues associated with the fourth root prescription for dynamical staggered fermions in Lattice QCD simulations, we consider the problem of finding a viable lattice Dirac operator D such that (det D_{staggered})^{1/4} = det D. Working in the flavour field representation we show that in the free field case there is a simple and natural candidate D satisfying this relation, and we show that it has acceptable locality behavior: exponentially local with localisation range vanishing ~ (a/m)^{1/2} for lattice spacing a -> 0. Prospects for the interacting case are also discussed, although we do not solve this case here.

description: We consider quasinormal modes and Hawking radiation of four-dimensional asymptotically flat black holes in the most general up to-cubic-order-in-curvature dimension-independent Einsteinian theory of gravity that shares its graviton spectrum with the Einstein theory on constant curvature backgrounds. We show that damping rate and real oscillation frequencies of quasinormal modes for scalar, electromagnetic and Dirac fields are suppressed once the coupling with the cubic term is on. The intensity of Hawking radiation is suppressed as well, leading to, roughly, one order longer lifetime at a sufficiently large coupling constant.

description: We aim to construct quark hadron physics based on QCD. First, using lattice QCD, we study mass spectra of positive-parity and negative-parity baryons in the octet, the decuplet and the singlet representations of the SU(3) flavor. In particular, we consider the lightest negative-parity baryon, the $Λ$(1405), which can be an exotic hadron as the $N \bar K$ molecular state or the flavor-singlet three-quark state. We investigate the negative-parity flavor-singlet three-quark state in lattice QCD using the quenched approximation, where the dynamical quark-anitiquark pair creation is absent and no mixing occurs between the three-quark and the five-quark states. Our lattice QCD analysis suggests that the flavor-singlet three-quark state is so heavy that the $Λ$(1405) cannot be identified as the three-quark state, which supports the possibility of the molecular-state picture of the $Λ$(1405). Second, we study thermal properties of the scalar glueball in an anisotropic lattice QCD, and find about 300 MeV mass reduction near the QCD critical temperature from the pole-mass analysis. Finally, we study the three-quark potential, which is responsible to the baryon properties. The detailed lattice QCD analysis for the 3Q potential indicates the Y-type flux-tube formation linking the three quarks.

description: Recent advancements in learning techniques that employ coordinate-based neural representations have yielded remarkable results in multi-view 3D reconstruction tasks. However, these approaches often require a substantial number of input views (typically several tens) and computationally intensive optimization procedures to achieve their effectiveness. In this paper, we address these limitations specifically for the problem of few-shot full 3D head reconstruction. We accomplish this by incorporating a probabilistic shape and appearance prior into coordinate-based representations, enabling faster convergence and improved generalization when working with only a few input images (even as low as a single image). During testing, we leverage this prior to guide the fitting process of a signed distance function using a differentiable renderer. By incorporating the statistical prior alongside parallelizable ray tracing and dynamic caching strategies, we achieve an efficient and accurate approach to few-shot full 3D head reconstruction. Moreover, we extend the H3DS dataset, which now comprises 60 high-resolution 3D full head scans and their corresponding posed images and masks, which we use for evaluation purposes. By leveraging this dataset, we demonstrate the remarkable capabilities of our approach in achieving state-of-the-art results in geometry reconstruction while being an order of magnitude faster than previous approaches.

description: Personalized news recommendation aims to assist users in finding news articles that align with their interests, which plays a pivotal role in mitigating users' information overload problem. Although many recent works have been studied for better personalized news recommendation, the following challenges should be explored more: (C1) Comprehending manifold intents coupled within a news article, (C2) Differentiating varying post-read preferences of news articles, and (C3) Addressing the cold-start user problem. To tackle the aforementioned challenges together, in this paper, we propose a novel personalized news recommendation framework (CROWN) that employs (1) category-guided intent disentanglement for (C1), (2) consistency-based news representation for (C2), and (3) GNN-enhanced hybrid user representation for (C3). Furthermore, we incorporate a category prediction into the training process of CROWN as an auxiliary task, which provides supplementary supervisory signals to enhance intent disentanglement. Extensive experiments on two real-world datasets reveal that (1) CROWN provides consistent performance improvements over ten state-of-the-art news recommendation methods and (2) the proposed strategies significantly improve the accuracy of CROWN.

description: Convertible cars have existed since among the first automobiles, and the lack of substantial roof structure creates some safety concerns. Though crash tests have demonstrated that convertibles can resist excessive intrusion in front and side crashes and that strong A-pillars and roll bars can help maintain survival space in rollovers, little work has been done examining the real-world crash experience of these vehicles. The objective of this study was to compare the crash experience of recent convertibles with nonconvertible versions of the same cars using the most recent crash data. Crash and exposure data were obtained from the U.S. Department of Transportation and IHS Markit, respectively. Rates of driver deaths and police-reported crash involvements were compared for 1- to 5-year-old convertible cars and their nonconvertible versions during 2014–2018. Exposure measures included registered vehicle years (RVY) and vehicle miles traveled (VMT). These rates were compared using the standardized mortality ratio to account for possible differences in exposure distribution. Crash circumstances (e.g., point of impact, rollover, ejection) and behavioral outcomes (e.g., speeding, alcohol impairment, seat belt use) were compared for drivers killed in crashes. Convertibles had lower driver death rates and police-reported crash involvement rates on the basis of both RVY and VMT. However, the differences in driver death rates were not statistically significant. Driver deaths per 10 billion VMT were 11% lower for convertibles, and driver involvement in police-reported crashes per 10 million VMT was 6% lower. On average, convertibles were driven 1,595 fewer miles per year than the nonconvertible versions of these cars. Among fatally injured drivers, convertibles had slightly higher rates of ejection, and behavioral differences were minimal. The number of rollovers was small and their rate did not substantially differ between convertibles and their nonconvertible versions. Safety concerns associated with convertibles’ retractable roof structures were not supported by the results of this study.
Decoherence of multi-dimensional entangled coherent states

description: For entangled states of light both the amount of entanglement and the sensitivity to noise generally increase with the number of photons in the state. The entanglement-sensitivity tradeoff is investigated for a particular set of states, multi-dimensional entangled coherent states. Those states possess an arbitrarily large amount of entanglement $E$ provided the number of photons is at least of order $2^{2E}$. We calculate how fast that entanglement decays due to photon absorption losses and how much entanglement is left. We find that for very small losses the amount of entanglement lost is equal to $2/\log(2)\approx 2.89$ ebits per absorbed photon, irrespective of the amount of pure-state entanglement $E$ one started with. In contrast, for larger losses it tends to be the remaining amount of entanglement that is independent of $E$. This may provide a useful strategy for creating states with a fixed amount of entanglement.

description: This paper introduces the pipeline to extend the largest dataset in egocentric vision, EPIC-KITCHENS. The effort culminates in EPIC-KITCHENS-100, a collection of 100 hours, 20M frames, 90K actions in 700 variable-length videos, capturing long-term unscripted activities in 45 environments, using head-mounted cameras. Compared to its previous version, EPIC-KITCHENS-100 has been annotated using a novel pipeline that allows denser (54% more actions per minute) and more complete annotations of fine-grained actions (+128% more action segments). This collection enables new challenges such as action detection and evaluating the "test of time" - i.e. whether models trained on data collected in 2018 can generalise to new footage collected two years later. The dataset is aligned with 6 challenges: action recognition (full and weak supervision), action detection, action anticipation, cross-modal retrieval (from captions), as well as unsupervised domain adaptation for action recognition. For each challenge, we define the task, provide baselines and evaluation metrics

description: In this paper we applied two well known empirical models, the ‘pricing-to-market’ and the ‘residual demand elasticity’ approach, to test for market power of German food and beverage exporters on the main international markets (beer, cocoa powder, chocolate, and sugar confectionary). We compared the estimation results and considered the time series properties of the model variables, which both had an impact on the conclusions drawn from the model estimates. On many international food markets conditions for the existence of market power are fulfilled, such as concentrated supply and/or demand structures, or specific product qualities. For the products under study we have shown that the supply side is highly concentrated. For instance, for beer, cocoa powder, chocolate, and sugar confectionary the six biggest importers hold a significant share of total imports of the respective destinations. In addition, many products are well known for their specific quality characteristics. The ‘pricing-to-market’ model identifies market power by the estimation of the exchange rate transmission elasticity. A significant transmission elasticity above minus one indicates the use of market power. The ‘residual demand elasticity’ approach signalizes market power if the estimates for the elasticity lie in the range of minus one to less than infinity. Both frameworks utilize the effects of exchange rate variations on export volumes and prices. On four markets, US and Canadian beer market, UK sugar confectionary, and Italian cocoa powder market, we find significant parameters for the exchange rate transmission elasticity which indicate a ‘pricing to market’ behavior with similar estimates around – 0.7. Thus, the use of market power by German exporters cannot be rejected for these products and destinations. Because the RDE model results do not indicate market power at all, both approaches partly result inconsistent conclusions, which further do not fit to the fact that the law of one price is significantly violated for all products. Even though markets obviously indicate to some extent market power, the applied model approaches do not consistently detect it. Therefore, the observed price discrimination must be caused by some other factors than the deviation of demand elasticities between international markets. The explicit consideration of competitors’ behaviour on the international markets can be one factor that might be worthwhile to enhance the understanding of the pricing process on these markets.

Study of boiling heat transfer on a stationary downward facing hot steel plate cooled by a circular water jet
Creators: name: Zhang, Peng
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The controlled cooling of steel on the runout table is crucial to the desired microstructural evolution in the manufacturing process and desired mechanical properties of the final product. The purpose of this study is to improve our fundamental knowledge of heat transfer on the runout table by investigating transient heat transfer on a downward facing hot surface cooled by a highly subcooled single circular free surface jet of water. Both surface and interior temperatures of the plate were collected at conditions as close as possible to industrial conditions. A two-dimensional inverse heat conduction model including the effect of progression of the rewetting front on heat transfer was developed, validated and employed to estimate heat fluxes on the bottom of plate. The influence of jet subcooling and flow rate on heat transfer was discussed. Boiling heat transfer correlations were tested with data from the current study and the cooling efficiency of bottom jets was compared with corresponding top jet cooling data from the literature.

description: The 25 years following the serendipitous discovery of megamasers have seen tremendous progress in the study of luminous extragalactic H$_2$O emission. Single-dish monitoring and high resolution interferometry have been used to identify sites of massive star formation, to study the interaction of nuclear jets with dense molecular gas and to investigate the circumnuclear environment of active galactic nuclei (AGN). Accretion disks with radii of 0.1--3 pc were mapped and masses of nuclear engines of order 10$^{6}$--10$^{8}$ M$_{\odot}$ were determined. So far, $\sim$50 extragalactic H$_2$O maser sources have been detected, but few have been studied in detail.

description: Many astrophysical small-scale dynamos (SSDs) amplify weak magnetic fields via highly compressible, supersonic turbulence, but established SSD theories have overlooked these compressible effects. To address this, we perform visco-resistive SSD simulations across a range of sonic Mach numbers ($\mathcal{M}$), hydrodynamic Reynolds numbers ($\mathrm{Re}$), and magnetic Prandtl numbers ($\mathrm{Pm}$). We develop robust methods to measure kinetic and magnetic energy dissipation scales ($\ell_ν$ and $\ell_η$) and the scale of strongest magnetic fields ($\ell_\mathrm{p}$) during the kinematic phase. We demonstrate that $\ell_ν/\ell_η\sim \mathrm{Pm}^{1/2}$ is a universal feature for $\mathrm{Pm} \geq 1$ SSDs, regardless of $\mathcal{M}$ or $\mathrm{Re}$. Incompressible SSDs (either $\mathcal{M} \leq 1$ or $\mathrm{Re} < \mathrm{Re}\mathrm{crit} \approx 100$) concentrate magnetic energy at $\ell_\mathrm{p} \sim \ell_η$ with inversely correlated field strength and curvature. However, for compressible SSDs ($\mathcal{M} > 1$ and $\mathrm{Re} > \mathrm{Re}\mathrm{crit}$), shocks concentrate magnetic energy in large structures with $\ell_\mathrm{p} \sim (\ell_\mathrm{turb} / \ell_\mathrm{shock})^{1/3} \ell_η\gg \ell_η$, where $\ell_\mathrm{shock}$ is the characteristic shock width, and $\ell_\mathrm{turb}$ is the outer scale of the turbulent field. In this regime, magnetic field-line curvature becomes nearly independent of field strength. These results have implications for galaxy mergers and cosmic ray transport models in the interstellar medium.

description: It has recently been suggested that collisions of transversely polarized protons and antiprotons at the GSI could be used to determine the nucleon's transversity densities from measurements of the double-spin asymmetry for the Drell-Yan process. We analyze the role of higher-order perturbative QCD corrections in this kinematic regime, in terms of the available fixed-order contributions as well as of all-order soft-gluon resummations. We find that the combined perturbative corrections to the individual unpolarized and transversely polarized cross sections are large. We trace these large enhancements to soft gluon emission near partonic threshold, and we suggest that with a physically-motivated cut-off enhancements beyond lowest order are moderated relative to resummed perturbation theory, but still significant. The unpolarized dilepton cross section for the GSI kinematics may therefore provide information on the relation of perturbative and nonperturbative dynamics in hadronic scattering. The spin asymmetry turns out to be rather robust, relatively insensitive to higher orders, resummation, and the cut-offs.

description: Composite road safety performance indicators (RSPIs) are useful tools in regional road safety planning. Among the indicators and data calculated by the World Health Organization (WHO), information on the effectiveness of law enforcement on various risk factors for road casualties were provided, which can be considered as qualitative indicators. The purpose of this study is to analyze the performance indicators related to the percentage of helmet and seat-belt use versus the qualitative enforcement scores attributed by WHO. This analysis was performed for 30 member states of WHO and will show how and with what degree of efficiency the qualitative output of the enforcement score acts versus the input percentage of seat-belt and helmet use. The qualitative nature of the output index has led us to depart the traditional analysis of crisp numerical indicators related to road safety performance and to consider data as imprecise or fuzzy indices. In this study we used two methods including imprecise DEA-based CIs and fuzzy DEA-based CIs, respectively. Results show that the clear score achieved by the Imprecise DEA-based CI model is easy to interpret and use. Whereas, in the Fuzzy DEA-based CI model, the fuzzy indicator scores obtained based on the level of several probabilities are strong in capturing the uncertainties related to human behavior. Both RSPIs are applicable with slight differences that were in the order of countries and the ease of reading the results. We also found that each method has different strengths and that the FDEA-based CIs method is more accurate and more in line with the inputs than the IDEA-based CIs method.

description: In this paper, we examine the universe's expansion in $ f(R, L_{m}) $ gravity for a particular form of $ f(R, L_{m})=\frac{R}{2}+L_{m}^{n}$. The field equations for flat FLRW metric with matter Lagrangian $ L_{m}=ρ$ are derive. Hubble parameter in terms of red-shift$(z)$ are derived using the linear form of Equation of State (EoS) parameter $ ω=w_{0}+w_{1}z $. By using Bayesian statistical techniques based on $ χ^{2}$-minimization technique, we have obtained the best fit values of the model parameters of this model for cosmic chronometer and supernovae Pantheon datasets. The evolution of the equation of state parameter$(ω)$, energy density $ (ρ) $, pressure $\mathit{(p)}$ cosmographic parameters, and the impact of the energy conditions with best-fit values of the model parameters are all thoroughly examined. We have also analyze Om diagnostic's behavior and determine the present age of universe for this model.

description: Deep neural networks have been successfully applied in learning the board games Go, chess, and shogi without prior knowledge by making use of reinforcement learning. Although starting from zero knowledge has been shown to yield impressive results, it is associated with high computationally costs especially for complex games. With this paper, we present CrazyAra which is a neural network based engine solely trained in supervised manner for the chess variant crazyhouse. Crazyhouse is a game with a higher branching factor than chess and there is only limited data of lower quality available compared to AlphaGo. Therefore, we focus on improving efficiency in multiple aspects while relying on low computational resources. These improvements include modifications in the neural network design and training configuration, the introduction of a data normalization step and a more sample efficient Monte-Carlo tree search which has a lower chance to blunder. After training on 569537 human games for 1.5 days we achieve a move prediction accuracy of 60.4%. During development, versions of CrazyAra played professional human players.Most notably, CrazyAra achieved a four to one win over 2017 crazyhouse world champion Justin Tan (aka LM Jann Lee) who is more than 400 Elo higher rated compared to the average player in our training set. Furthermore, we test the playing strength of CrazyAra on CPU against all participants of the second Crazyhouse Computer Championships 2017, winning against twelve of the thirteen participants. Finally, for CrazyAraFish we continue training our model on generated engine games. In 10 long-time control matches playing Stockfish 10, CrazyAraFish wins three games and draws one out of 10 matches.
