description: Gain-scheduled control based on linear parameter-varying (LPV) models derived from local linearizations is a widespread nonlinear technique for tracking time-varying setpoints. Recently, a nonlinear control scheme based on Control Contraction Metrics (CCMs) has been developed to track arbitrary admissible trajectories. This paper presents a comparison study of these two approaches. We show that the CCM based approach is an extended gain-scheduled control scheme which achieves global reference-independent stability and performance through an exact control realization which integrates a series of local LPV controllers on a particular path between the current and reference states.

description: We examine the prospects for measuring the dark energy equation of state parameter w within the context of the still uncertain redshift evolution of galaxy cluster structure. We show that for a particular X-ray survey (SZE survey) the constraints on w degrade by roughly a factor of 3 (factor of 2) when one accounts for the possibility of non--standard cluster evolution. With followup measurements of a cosmology independent, mass--like quantity it is possible to measure cluster evolution, improving constraints on cosmological parameters (like w Omega_M). We examine scenarios where 1%, 10% and 100% of detected clusters are followed up, showing that even a modest followup program can enhance the final cosmological constraints. For the case of followup measurements on 1% of the cluster sample with an uncertainty of 30% on individual cluster mass--like quantities, constraints on w are improved by a factor of 2 to 3. For the best case scenario of a zero curvature universe, these particular X-ray and SZE surveys can deliver uncertainties on w of ~4% to 6%.

description: Upstate New York has historically faced economic hardships, and the cities within the region have struggled to cope with population loss, urban flight, and decaying buildings. In response, the cities of Albany, Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Rochester, Syracuse, and Utica have set up urban renewal agencies in order to combat this issue. Through various methods of urban renewal, including land disposition and eminent domain, these cities have created disasters for the residents of the cities and the character of the environment during the period of heavy American urban renewal in the mid-20th century. Since this time, the urban renewal agencies have drifted from each other in terms of the strategies that they employ for renewal. Many cities currently utilize methods of acquiring properties and reselling them to developers. This strategy has resulted in higher quality housing, but has not necessarily provided greater quantities of housing. In contrast, the cities of Buffalo and Niagara Falls encourage larger scale developments by holding onto municipal properties until the proper buyer comes along, and redeveloping zoning regulations to make development easier. Urban renewal continues to serve an active role in political and economic issues throughout the Upstate New York region, as well as the nation as a whole.

description: The M protein of Streptococcus canis (SCM) is a virulence factor and serves as a surface-associated receptor with a particular affinity for mini-plasminogen, a cleavage product of the broad-spectrum serine protease plasmin. Here, we report that SCM has an additional high-affinity immunoglobulin G (IgG) binding activity. The ability of a particular S. canis isolate to bind to IgG significantly correlates with a scm-positive phenotype, suggesting a dominant role of SCM as an IgG receptor. Subsequent heterologous expression of SCM in non-IgG binding S. gordonii and Western Blot analysis with purified recombinant SCM proteins confirmed its IgG receptor function. As expected for a zoonotic agent, the SCM-IgG interaction is species-unspecific, with a particular affinity of SCM for IgGs derived from human, cats, dogs, horses, mice, and rabbits, but not from cows and goats. Similar to other streptococcal IgG-binding proteins, the interaction between SCM and IgG occurs via the conserved Fc domain and is, therefore, non-opsonic. Interestingly, the interaction between SCM and IgG-Fc on the bacterial surface specifically prevents opsonization by C1q, which might constitute another anti-phagocytic mechanism of SCM. Extensive binding analyses with a variety of different truncated SCM fragments defined a region of 52 amino acids located in the central part of the mature SCM protein which is important for IgG binding. This binding region is highly conserved among SCM proteins derived from different S. canis isolates but differs significantly from IgG-Fc receptors of S. pyogenes and S. dysgalactiae sub. equisimilis, respectively. In summary, we present an additional role of SCM in the pathogen-host interaction of S. canis. The detailed analysis of the SCM-IgG interaction should contribute to a better understanding of the complex roles of M proteins in streptococcal pathogenesis.
GEOLOGIC AND ENGINEERING CONTROLS ON THE PRODUCTION OF PERMAFROST–ASSOCIATED GAS HYDRATE ACCUMULATIONS

description: In 1995, the U.S. Geological Survey made the first systematic assessment of the in-place natural gas hydrate resources of the United States. That study suggested that the amount of gas in the gas hydrate accumulations of northern Alaska probably exceeds the volume of known conventional gas resources on the North Slope. Researchers have long speculated that gas hydrates could eventually be a commercial resource yet technical and economic hurdles have historically made gas hydrate development a distant goal rather than a near-term possibility. This view began to change over the past five years with the realization that this unconventional resource could be developed in conjunction with conventional gas fields. The most significant development was gas hydrate production testing conducted at the Mallik site in Canada’s Mackenzie Delta in 2002. The Mallik 2002 Gas Hydrate Production Research Well Program yielded the first modern, fully integrated field study and production test of a natural gas hydrate accumulation. More recently, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. with the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Geological Survey have successfully cored, logged, and tested a gas hydrate accumulation on the North Slope of Alaska know as the Mount Elbert Prospect. The Mallik 2002 project along with the Mount Elbert effort has for the first time allowed the rational assessment of the production response of a gas hydrate accumulation.

description: This thesis discusses the activity of febrifugine and febrifugine's 3-D similar structural compounds to prostate cancer cell lines. Cancer is one of the most common diseases in the world. With the development of medicine, various diseases can be cured, but cancer is still difficult to cure completely. One of the most common issues of anti-cancer treatment is multidrug resistance. To defend against this, a different approach is important such as alkaloid. The pipeline is one of the alkaloids, that came from natural products and is used as an anti-cancer treatment. As febrifugine is also alkaloid, came from hydrangea, and is potentially toxic in high doses, it is important to understand the dose-response effect on its own. Column chromatography and NMR are used to extract febrifugine from hydrangea. The result of Dragendorff was positive, which indicates that there were alkaloid compounds in the separated compounds. However, febrifugine was not isolated from hydrangea. Febrifugine's 3-D similar structural compounds are chosen by using Pubchem, SwissADME, and Toxnet. There were more than 200 similar compounds and three filters (lipophilicity, lead likeness, and drug-likeness) are used to choose the final three compounds. As a result, halofuginone, 3-[(2S)-2,5-dihydroxy-2-methylpentyl]-8-methoxyquinazolin-4-one, and 2-(2,4-dioxo-1,4-dihydroquinazolin-3(2H)-yl)-N-(1-hydroxy-3-phenylpropan-2-yl) acetamide were selected. Two cell lines are used in this study which are WPMY-1 (healthy prostate cell line) and PC-3 (prostate cancer cell line). Current prostate cancer treatment drugs are used as control which are doxorubicin and docetaxel. Resazurin assay is used to measure of cytotoxicity of tested compounds. Overall, all the compounds have activity on both cell lines, especially, febrifugine and halofuginone had strong activity compared to the other two compounds. In addition, febrifugine and halofuginone have similar dose-response curves to doxorubicin. As cancer still remains a predominant cause of morbidity and mortality, studying cancer treatment is important. This study examined the anti-cancer activity of febrifugine and its 3-D structural compounds. Unfortunately, these compounds did not exhibit selective toxicity on prostate cancer cell lines. However, it is plausible that the compounds may have selective toxicity in different cancer cell lines, warranting further comprehensive to elucidate the characteristics of the compounds. Furthermore, febrifugine, sourced from a flower, has applications as an anti-malaria drug. There are many natural compounds worldwide and many of them have not been fully investigated. Researching natural compounds has a significant role in drug development as many drugs are derived from natural products.

description: This work presents a novel derivation of the expressions that describe the distortions of the cosmic microwave background curve due to the interactions between photons and the electrons present in dilute ionized systems. In this approach, a simplified one-dimensional evolution equation for the photon number occupation is applied to describe the mentioned interaction. This methodology emphasizes the physical features of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect and suggests the existence of links between basic statistical physics and complex applications involving radiative processes.

description: Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based bi-modal salient object detection (BSOD) aims to segment salient objects in a scene utilizing complementary cues in unaligned RGB and thermal image pairs. However, the high computational expense of existing UAV-based BSOD models limits their applicability to real-world UAV devices. To address this problem, we propose an efficient Fourier filter network with contrastive learning that achieves both real-time and accurate performance. Specifically, we first design a semantic contrastive alignment loss to align the two modalities at the semantic level, which facilitates mutual refinement in a parameter-free way. Second, inspired by the fast Fourier transform that obtains global relevance in linear complexity, we propose synchronized alignment fusion, which aligns and fuses bi-modal features in the channel and spatial dimensions by a hierarchical filtering mechanism. Our proposed model, AlignSal, reduces the number of parameters by 70.0%, decreases the floating point operations by 49.4%, and increases the inference speed by 152.5% compared to the cutting-edge BSOD model (i.e., MROS). Extensive experiments on the UAV RGB-T 2400 and seven bi-modal dense prediction datasets demonstrate that AlignSal achieves both real-time inference speed and better performance and generalizability compared to nineteen state-of-the-art models across most evaluation metrics. In addition, our ablation studies further verify AlignSal's potential in boosting the performance of existing aligned BSOD models on UAV-based unaligned data.

Cities and towns--Growth

description: Eminent domain has been a tool for planners and city government to assemble land since the founding fathers. The use of eminent domain has recently been given new light as the result of a Supreme Court case that determined eminent domain could be used for economic development. As a result, legal reform of eminent domain laws has occurred in almost every state within the US since 2005. This thesis will examine how the planning process influences the use of eminent domain as well as look into how the process by which eminent domain is used can be reformed. This thesis has collected data on the mandated planning process, eminent domain laws, and cases of eminent domain in 10 major cities in the US since 2005. The research found 29 cases of eminent domain in 10 cities over the past 6 years. The conclusions of the analysis show that the use of eminent domain is no longer dominated by more traditional uses such as the building of roads. In addition, the local political climate influenced the use of eminent domain while the planning process had very little effect on the cases. A process by which the city, developers, community members and property owners can negotiate developments needs to be a focus of cities moving forward to ensure both growth and equity within the process to mitigate the impact of politics in the long term development decisions of cities.

By using variational methods, the geodesic connectedness of open domains (whose boundaries can be not differentiable and not convex) of a smooth Riemannian manifold is proved. In some cases also the convexity of the domain is obtained. Moreover we present examples of the applicability and of the independence of the assumptions. Finally we give an application to the existence of trajectories with fixed energy of dynamical systems.

description: Field-free switching of perpendicularly magnetized ferromagnetic layer by spin orbit torque (SOT) from the spin Hall effect (SHE) is of great interest in the applications of magnetic memory devices. In this paper, we investigate the deterministic SOT switching through the joint effects of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction (DMI) and field-like torque (FLT) by micromagnetic simulations. We confirmed that within a certain range of DMI values and charge current densities, it is possible to deterministically switch the magnetization without the assistance external magnetic field. We show that the FLT could play an adverse role in blocking and slowing down the magnetization switching under certain cases of DMI and charge current-driven field-free switching. However, in other cases, FLT can assist DMI on the deterministic field-free SOT switching. In addition, it is found that FLT can effectively expand the current density window for a deterministic field-free SOT switching in the presence of DMI.

Emotion Recognition Education in Western Art Music Appreciation

description: Because Western art music is harmonically more complex than popular music and because it is written with musical notation, it may be challenging for certain people with no music training (non-musicians), those who did not grow up with Western art music, or those who did not choose to listen to this type of music for enjoyment to understand and appreciate it. Furthermore, there is a prevalent belief that Western art music is for the wealthy and elderly. This belief may be preventing symphony orchestra groups from cultivating new audiences. This study aims to determine if a narrative music listening activity would generate emotional response and cognitive engagement in a study group of non-Western art music listeners and prompt them to create musical narratives. Theoretically, narrative form music listening may present episodic memories, which can be built up into stories. To test the effect of narrative music listening activities, an online survey was distributed to non-Western art music listeners in the 20 through 40 age range, and pretest–treatment–posttest activity was devised and administered to three groups, an absolute music listening group, a programmatic music listening group, and a polyphonic texture listening group. In the treatment section, the creative listening activity, participants were prompted to create musical narratives, which take the form of colors, shapes, dialogues, or explicit stories. Participants were then asked to write about the music they heard before and after the narrative music listening activity. Participants’ motivation to attend a Western art music concert was assessed via a motivation scale using Likert scales. The results suggest that this online activity’s multimodality was a promising method for enhancing the appreciation of Western art music.

description: Recently, by performing molecular dynamics simulations in the methane-water system, we have measured the static lifetimes of cagelike water clusters (CLWC) immersed in bulk liquid water, during which the member-water molecules of CLWCs are not allowed to exchange with their surrounding water molecules [J. Phys. Chem. C, 2007, 111, 2595]. In this study, we measure the dynamic lifetimes of CLWCs with permitting such water exchanges. It is found that the dynamic lifetimes of CLWCs are not less than the static lifetimes previously obtained, and their ratio increases with the lifetime values. The results strengthen that CLWCs are metastable structures in liquid water and the occurrence probability of long-lived CLWCs will increase if one uses the dynamic lifetimes instead of the static lifetimes. The implications of this study for hydrate nucleation are discussed.

Lyman-alpha absorption around nearby galaxies

description: We have used STIS aboard HST to search for Lyman-alpha (Lya) absorption lines in the outer regions of eight nearby galaxies using background QSOs and AGN as probes. Lya lines are detected within a few hundred km/s of the systemic velocity of the galaxy in all cases. We conclude that a background line-of-sight which passes within 26-200 h-1 kpc of a foreground galaxy is likely to intercept low column density neutral hydrogen with log N(HI) >~ 13.0. The ubiquity of detections implies a covering factor of ~ 100% for low N(HI) gas around galaxies within 200 h-1 kpc. We discuss the difficulty in trying to associate individual absorption components with the selected galaxies and their neighbors, but show that by degrading our STIS data to lower resolutions, we are able to reproduce the anti-correlation of Lya equivalent width and impact parameter found at higher redshift. We also show that the equivalent width and column density of Lya complexes (when individual components are summed over ~ 1000 km/s) correlate well with a simple estimate of the volume density of galaxies brighter than M(B) = -17.5 at the same redshift as a Lya complex. We do not reject the hypothesis that the selected galaxies are directly responsible for the observed Lya lines, but our analysis indicates that absorption by clumpy intragroup gas is an equally likely explanation.

Emotion Recognition, Emotion Regulation, and Callous: Unemotional Traits in Incarcerated Male Youth
Creators: Linick, Jessica Leah

description: Youth with Callous-Unemotional (CU) traits represent an important subgroup of antisocial youth whose behavioral, affective, and cognitive functioning appear sharply different from other youth with conduct problems. However, few, if any studies have examined the interaction of cognitive control and emotion recognition among youth with CU traits, an important aspect of anti-social behavior. The current study examined the performance of adolescent males with Callous-Unemotional (CU) traits using an Emotional Go/Nogo task (EGNG), a measure of emotion recognition, cognitive control, and emotional regulation, with a specific focus on the recognition and regulation of responses to negative facial expressions. Participants included 268 male, sentenced or detained youth (ages 16-18 years), from a large correctional facility in New York City. On the EGNG, youth were presented with a series of facial expressions (angry, happy, sad, fearful, and neutral) and were asked to respond to a particular facial expression ("Go" trials) while inhibiting their response to a neutral expression ("Nogo" trials), or vice versa. CU traits were measured via the Inventory of Callous-Unemotional Traits (ICU), a 24-item self-report instrument assessing levels of Callousness, Uncaring, and Unemotional traits. With regard to the main research question, emotion recognition, results indicated that this sample of antisocial youth with CU traits did not demonstrate deficits in recognizing fear or any other emotion faces in the EGNG task. However, youth with higher CU traits appeared more susceptible to emotional interference from negative emotional faces (Fear, Angry, Sad), evidencing difficulties in both behavioral inhibition and emotional reactivity within these conditions. In addition, analyses revealed unpredicted associations among EGNG performance, reading level, and race/ethnicity, suggesting a role of cultural, contextual, and individual level factors influencing emotional regulatory ability in these youth. Compared to studies that have examined the ability to label fearful affect, these findings suggest that discriminating fear from neutral faces may not be as deficient in youth with CU traits as previously reported. This is consistent with research that has found that CU traits may improve adolescents"™ ability to label the expression of fear and may facilitate antisocial behavior. Importantly, this study highlights the utility of examining CU traits in antisocial youth, and has important theoretical and clinical implications. Future research should continue to examine the regulation of responses to fear and other negative emotions in youth with CU traits, as well as relationships among these variables and behavioral characteristics (e.g., propensity to violence).

description: To improve mobility of fabricated silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) quantum devices, forming gas annealing is a common method used to mitigate the effects of disorder at the Si/SiO2 interface. However, the importance of activation annealing is usually ignored. Here, we show that a high vacuum environment for implantation activation is beneficial for improving mobility compared to nitrogen atmosphere. Low-temperature transport measurements of Hall bars show that peak mobility can be improved by a factor of two, reaching 1.5 m^2/(Vs) using high vacuum annealing during implantation activation. Moreover, the charge stability diagram of a single quantum dot is mapped, with no visible disturbance caused by disorder, suggesting possibility of fabricating high-quality quantum dots on commercial wafers. Our results may provide valuable insights into device optimization in silicon-based quantum computing.
