description: In this paper, we propose a method of fixing the leading behaviors of three dimensional geometries from the dual CFT$_2$ entanglement entropies. We employ only the holographic principle and do not use any assumption about the AdS/CFT correspondence and bulk geometry. Our strategy involves using both UV and IR-like CFT$_2$ entanglement entropies to fix the bulk geodesics. With a simple trick, the metric can be extracted from the geodesics. As examples, we fix the leading behaviors of the pure AdS$_3$ metric from the entanglement entropies of free CFT$_2$ and, more importantly, the BTZ black hole from the entanglement entropies of finite temperature CFT$_2$. Consequently, CFT$_2$ with finite size or topological defects can be determined through simple transformations. Following the same steps, in principle, the leading behaviors of all three dimensional (topologically distinct) holographic classical geometries from the dual CFT$_2$ entanglement entropies can be fixed.

Counterfactual restrictions and Bell's theorem

description: We show that the ability to consider counterfactual situations is a necessary assumption of Bell's theorem, and that, to allow Bell inequality violations while maintaining all other assumptions, we just require certain measurement choices be counterfactually restricted, rather than the full removal of counterfactual definiteness. We illustrate how the counterfactual definiteness assumption formally arises from the statistical independence assumption. Counterfactual restriction therefore provides a way to interpret statistical independence violation different to what is typically assumed (i.e. that statistical independence violation means either retrocausality or superdeterminism). We tie counterfactual restriction to contextuality, and show the similarities to that approach.

A meta‐analysis of humanitarian logistics research
Creators: name: Kunz, Nathan Michael

Publisher: name: Emerald Publishing
Year: 2012

description: Purpose The purpose of this paper is to give an up‐to‐date and structured insight into the most recent literature on humanitarian logistics, and suggest trends for future research based on the gaps identified through structured content analysis. Design/methodology/approach The authors use a quantitative and qualitative content analysis process to analyse the characteristics of the existing literature, identifying the most studied topics in six structural dimensions, and presenting gaps and recommendations for further research. Findings It was found that existing humanitarian logistics research shows too little interest in continuous humanitarian aid operations, in slow onset disasters and man‐made catastrophes. While several papers address different phases of disasters, very few focus particularly on the reconstruction following a disaster. Empirical research is underrepresented in the existing literature as well. Research limitations/implications While five of the authors’ structural dimensions are inspired by previous reviews, the sixth dimension (situational factors) is derived from a theoretical framework which the authors developed and which has never been tested before. The validity of the study could therefore be increased by testing this framework. Originality/value The authors analyse the broadest set of papers (174) ever covered in previous literature reviews on humanitarian logistics. A quantitative analysis of the papers was conducted in order to analyse the situational factors which have mostly been studied so far in literature. This paper is also the first in humanitarian logistics to use content analysis as the main methodology to analyse literature in a structured way, which is of particular value to the academic community as well as practitioners.

description: This paper presents a 4-channel beamforming TX implemented in 65nm CMOS. Each beamforming TX is comprised of a C-2C split-array multiphase switched-capacitor power amplifier (SAMP-SCPA). This is the first use of multiphase interpolation (MPI) for beam-steering. This technique is ideal for low-frequency beamforming and MIMO, as it does not require passive or LO based phase shifters. The SCPA is ideal to use as the core element since it can perform frequency translation, data conversion and drive an output at high power and efficiency in a compact die area. A prototype 4-element beamforming TX, occupying 2 mm X 2.5 mm, can achieve peak output power of 24.4 dBm with a peak system efficiency (SE) of 24%, while achieving < 1° phase resolution and <1 dB gain error. When transmitting a 15 MHz, 64 QAM long-term evolution (LTE) signal it outputs 18.4 dBm at 14% SE with a measured adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) < -30 dBc and error vector magnitude (EVM) of 3.27 %-rms at 1.75 GHz. A synthesized beam pattern based on measured results from a single die achieves <0.32°-rms beam angle error and <0.15 dB rms beam amplitude error.

description: Centrality metrics play a crucial role in network analysis, while the choice of specific measures significantly influences the accuracy of conclusions as each measure represents a unique concept of node importance. Among over 400 proposed indices, selecting the most suitable ones for specific applications remains a challenge. Existing approaches -- model-based, data-driven, and axiomatic -- have limitations, requiring association with models, training datasets, or restrictive axioms for each specific application. To address this, we introduce the culling method, which relies on the expert concept of centrality behavior on simple graphs. The culling method involves forming a set of candidate measures, generating a list of as small graphs as possible needed to distinguish the measures from each other, constructing a decision-tree survey, and identifying the measure consistent with the expert's concept. We apply this approach to a diverse set of 40 centralities, including novel kernel-based indices, and combine it with the axiomatic approach. Remarkably, only 13 small 1-trees are sufficient to separate all 40 measures, even for pairs of closely related ones. By adopting simple ordinal axioms like Self-consistency or Bridge axiom, the set of measures can be drastically reduced making the culling survey short. Applying the culling method provides insightful findings on some centrality indices, such as PageRank, Bridging, and dissimilarity-based Eigencentrality measures, among others. The proposed approach offers a cost-effective solution in terms of labor and time, complementing existing methods for measure selection, and providing deeper insights into the underlying mechanisms of centrality measures.

description: We study the conformal window of QCD using perturbation theory, starting from the perturbative upper edge and going down as much as we can towards the strongly coupled regime. We do so by exploiting the available five-loop computation of the $\overline{\rm MS}$ $β$-function and employing Borel resummation techniques both for the ordinary perturbative series and for the Banks-Zaks conformal expansion. Large-$n_f$ results are also used. We argue that the perturbative series for the $\overline{\rm MS}$ $β$-function is most likely asymptotic and non-Borel resummable, yet Borel resummation techniques allow to improve on ordinary perturbation theory. We find substantial evidence that QCD with $n_f=12$ flavours flows in the IR to a conformal field theory. Though the evidence is weaker, we find indications that also $n_f=11$ might sit within the conformal window. We also compute the value of the mass anomalous dimension $γ$ at the fixed point and compare it with the available lattice results. The conformal window might extend for lower values of $n_f$, but our methods break down for $n_f<11$, where we expect that non-perturbative effects become important. A similar analysis is performed in the Veneziano limit.

description: We derive two geometric approaches to categorification of quantum invariants of links associated to an arbitrary compact simple Lie group $^L{G}$. In part I, we describe the first approach, based on an equivariant derived category of coherent sheaves on ${\cal X}$, the moduli space of singular $G$-monopoles, where $G$ is related to $^LG$ by Langlands duality. In part II, we describe the second approach, based on the derived category of a Fukaya-Seidel category of a Calabi-Yau $Y$ with potential $W$. The two approaches are related by a version of mirror symmetry, which plays a crucial role in the story. In part III, we explain the string theory origin of these results, and the relation to an approach due to Witten.

description: Missing data remains a very common problem in large datasets, including survey and census data containing many ordinal responses, such as political polls and opinion surveys. Multiple imputation (MI) is usually the go-to approach for analyzing such incomplete datasets, and there are indeed several implementations of MI, including methods using generalized linear models, tree-based models, and Bayesian non-parametric models. However, there is limited research on the statistical performance of these methods for multivariate ordinal data. In this article, we perform an empirical evaluation of several MI methods, including MI by chained equations (MICE) using multinomial logistic regression models, MICE using proportional odds logistic regression models, MICE using classification and regression trees, MICE using random forest, MI using Dirichlet process (DP) mixtures of products of multinomial distributions, and MI using DP mixtures of multivariate normal distributions. We evaluate the methods using simulation studies based on ordinal variables selected from the 2018 American Community Survey (ACS). Under our simulation settings, the results suggest that MI using proportional odds logistic regression models, classification and regression trees and DP mixtures of multinomial distributions generally outperform the other methods. In certain settings, MI using multinomial logistic regression models is able to achieve comparable performance, depending on the missing data mechanism and amount of missing data.

description: We investigate four-dimensional Heterotic solitons, defined as a particular class of solutions of the equations of motion of Heterotic supergravity on a four-manifold $M$. Heterotic solitons depend on a parameter $κ$ and consist of a Riemannian metric $g$, a metric connection with skew torsion $H$ on $TM$ and a closed one-form $φ$ on $M$ satisfying a differential system. In the limit $κ\to 0$, Heterotic solitons reduce to a class of generalized Ricci solitons and can be considered as a higher-order curvature modification of the latter. If the torsion $H$ is equal to the Hodge dual of $φ$, Heterotic solitons consist of either flat tori or closed Einstein-Weyl structures on manifolds of type $S^1\times S^3$ as introduced by P. Gauduchon. We prove that the moduli space of such closed Einstein-Weyl structures is isomorphic to the product of $\mathbb{R}$ with a certain finite quotient of the Cartan torus of the isometry group of the typical fiber of a natural fibration $M\to S^1$. We also consider the associated space of essential infinitesimal deformations, which we prove to be obstructed. More generally, we characterize several families of Heterotic solitons as suspensions of certain three-manifolds with prescribed constant principal Ricci curvatures, amongst which we find hyperbolic manifolds, manifolds covered by $\widetilde{\mathrm{Sl}}(2,\mathbb{R})$ and E$(1,1)$ or certain Sasakian three-manifolds. These solutions exhibit a topological dependence in the string slope parameter $κ$ and yield, to the best of our knowledge, the first examples of Heterotic compactification backgrounds not locally isomorphic to supersymmetric compactification backgrounds.

description: By adhering to the dictum, "No causation without manipulation (treatment, intervention)", cause and effect data analysis represents changes in observed data in terms of changes in the causal factors. When causal factors are not amenable for active manipulation in the real world due to current technological limitations or ethical considerations, a counterfactual approach performs an intervention on the model of data formation. In the case of object representation or activity (temporal object) representation, varying object parts is generally unfeasible whether they be spatial and/or temporal. Multilinear algebra, the algebra of higher-order tensors, is a suitable and transparent framework for disentangling the causal factors of data formation. Learning a part-based intrinsic causal factor representations in a multilinear framework requires applying a set of interventions on a part-based multilinear model. We propose a unified multilinear model of wholes and parts. We derive a hierarchical block multilinear factorization, the M-mode Block SVD, that computes a disentangled representation of the causal factors by optimizing simultaneously across the entire object hierarchy. Given computational efficiency considerations, we introduce an incremental bottom-up computational alternative, the Incremental M-mode Block SVD, that employs the lower-level abstractions, the part representations, to represent the higher level of abstractions, the parent wholes. This incremental computational approach may also be employed to update the causal model parameters when data becomes available incrementally. The resulting object representation is an interpretable combinatorial choice of intrinsic causal factor representations related to an object's recursive hierarchy of wholes and parts that renders object recognition robust to occlusion and reduces training data requirements.

description: The Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) are widely used across the Earth, Ocean, and Planetary Sciences and beyond to process geospatial and geophysical data as well as produce high-quality (static) vector and raster plots and maps. However, GMT suffers from its cryptic syntax.PyGMT (https://www.pygmt.org/) wraps around the very fast GMT C code to make it accessible through the Python programming language. The introduction of meaningful aliases for the single-letter flags (e. g., "region" for "R" or "projection" for "J") and ongoing efforts regarding a more Pythonic syntax for GMT arguments significantly increase user-friendliness and readability of the code. Furthermore, PyGMT provides auto-compilation and supports rich display in Jupyter notebooks for improved user experience. The Python library is indexed on PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/pygmt/) and conda-forge (https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pygmt) and is installable via the pip, mamba, and conda packages managers. PyGMT integrates smoothly within the Scientific Python ecosystem. In addition to standard file formats such as ASCII and NetCDF files, common Pythonic data structures for tabular and grid data such as numpy.ndarray, pandas.DataFrame, geopandas.GeoDataFrame, and xarray.DataArray are supported. PyGMT also provides easy access to the GMT remote datasets. Numerous gallery examples, tutorials, and intros help new users and users coming from GMT learn the main concepts of PyGMT. There is also a Q&A subsection on the GMT forum to help with common user issues.The project was started in 2017 by Leonardo Uieda and Paul Wessel as an open-source project hosted on GitHub (https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/pygmt). Now it is a community-driven effort, with all versions still available on GitHub and recorded on Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3781524) and v0.12.0 being the latest release (2024/05/01). People are encouraged to pick any issue they like, where the label “good first issue” indicates a low knowledge barrier to get involved in PyGMT.

This regularity can be regarded as a dual concept of Perelman's regularity in the geometry of Alexandrov spaces with curvature bounded below. As a corollary we obtain a sphere theorem for geodesically complete CAT(1) spaces.

description: Mobile parcel lockers (MPLs) have been recently introduced by urban logistics operators as a means to reduce traffic congestion and operational cost. Their capability to relocate their position during the day has the potential to improve customer accessibility and convenience (if deployed and planned accordingly), allowing customers to collect parcels at their preferred time among one of the multiple locations. This paper proposes an integer programming model to solve the Location Routing Problem for MPLs to determine the optimal configuration and locker routes. In solving this model, a Hybrid Q-Learning algorithm-based Method (HQM) integrated with global and local search mechanisms is developed, the performance of which is examined for different problem sizes and benchmarked with genetic algorithms. Furthermore, we introduced two route adjustment strategies to resolve stochastic events that may cause delays. The results show that HQM achieves 443.41% improvement on average in solution improvement, compared with the 94.91% improvement of heuristic counterparts, suggesting HQM enables a more efficient search for better solutions. Finally, we identify critical factors that contribute to service delays and investigate their effects.

description: It is known that the frame flow on a closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with negative sectional curvature is ergodic if $n$ is odd and $n \neq 7$. In this paper we study its ergodicity in the remaining cases. For $n$ even and $n \neq 8, 134$, we show that: if $n \equiv 2$ mod $4$ or $n=4$, the frame flow is ergodic if the manifold is $\sim 0.3$-pinched, if $n \equiv 0$ mod $4$, it is ergodic if the manifold is $\sim 0.6$-pinched. In the three dimensions $n=7,8,134$, the respective pinching bounds that we need in order to prove ergodicity are $0.4962...$, $0.6212...$, and $0.5788...$. This is a significant improvement over the previously known results and a step forward towards solving a long-standing conjecture of Brin asserting that $0.25$-pinched even-dimensional manifolds have an ergodic frame flow.

Crossing boundaries: integrative effects of supervision, gender and boundary control on work engagement and work-to-family positive spillover

description: This article focuses on the mechanism and conditions under which a positive spillover between work and family may occur. Based on the dual-process model of work-home interference, it is expected that family supportive supervisor behavior (FSSB) as an individual job resource can create work-to-family positive spillover (WFPS) effects, largely through supervisors’ ability to stimulate employee engagement. Further, in a moderated mediation model it is tested whether individual effects of gender and boundary control influence these relationships. Survey data in a German IT company supports most of the study hypotheses. Work engagement was found to fully mediate the relationship between FSSB and instrumental WFPS but not for affective WFPS. Gender moderated the relationship between FSSB and work engagement, with men reciprocating FSSB with higher levels of work engagement than women. Control over boundary permeability was found to influence the relationship between work engagement and instrumental WFPS for men and women differently, with women being more in need of control over boundary permeability than men. Practical implications for understanding the conditions under which a positive spillover between work and family may occur are discussed.

GRAIL: Developing responsible practices for AI and machine learning in research funding and evaluation with a community of learning

New developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies are opening new avenues for research funding organisations to learn from the rich data sources and internal expertise they have curated over decades, and to develop new data-driven practices in response to rapid scientific development and changing policy environments. However, there is a lack of shared experience and best practice in using AI and ML in the work of research funding and evaluation, and it is often unclear how developments in AI Safety and Responsible AI discourses translate into practical insights for complex organisations like research funders.

The Research on Research Institute’s GRAIL project is an ongoing effort drawing on a community of learning among research funding organisations to develop specific insights, pathways, and critical questions to guide responsible use of AI and ML in the research funding ecosystem. This extended abstract highlights emerging themes and learning opportunities from the ongoing GRAIL workshop series, as key directions of travel for developing best practice around the use of AI and ML in the research funding ecosystem.

The GRAIL project is funded by the Research on Research Institute.

description: Using an amalgamation of techniques from classical radar, computer vision, and deep learning, we characterize our ongoing data-driven approach to space-time adaptive processing (STAP) radar. We generate a rich example dataset of received radar signals by randomly placing targets of variable strengths in a predetermined region using RFView, a site-specific radio frequency modeling and simulation tool developed by ISL Inc. For each data sample within this region, we generate heatmap tensors in range, azimuth, and elevation of the output power of a minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer, which can be replaced with a desired test statistic. These heatmap tensors can be thought of as stacked images, and in an airborne scenario, the moving radar creates a sequence of these time-indexed image stacks, resembling a video. Our goal is to use these images and videos to detect targets and estimate their locations, a procedure reminiscent of computer vision algorithms for object detection$-$namely, the Faster Region-Based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN). The Faster R-CNN consists of a proposal generating network for determining regions of interest (ROI), a regression network for positioning anchor boxes around targets, and an object classification algorithm; it is developed and optimized for natural images. Our ongoing research will develop analogous tools for heatmap images of radar data. In this regard, we will generate a large, representative adaptive radar signal processing database for training and testing, analogous in spirit to the COCO dataset for natural images. As a preliminary example, we present a regression network in this paper for estimating target locations to demonstrate the feasibility of and significant improvements provided by our data-driven approach.

Tree canopy density thresholds for improved forests cover estimation in protected areas of Madagascar

description: The rich endemic biodiversity of Madagascar is concentrated in different types of natural forests primarily conserved within the network of protected areas (PAs). Since 1990, remote sensing has been utilized to monitor forest cover. The latest forest cover map generated using these techniques provides accurate estimates of natural forest cover within the PAs network. However, the standardized application of Tree Canopy Density (TCD), as used in global assessments of forest cover, yields erroneous estimates for different forest types in Madagascar because the standard TCD cannot be globally applied to all types of forests. Our study aims to utilize global remote sensing data at the scale of PAs to identify specific TCD thresholds for individual PAs. Starting from the year 2000 data, the application of these thresholds will allow us to estimate deforestation in subsequent years at reduced costs. We used the official PA boundaries, a reliable forest cover map at the national scale, and the TCDs published at a global scale to infer the values of TCD to be applied in each PA. The standard TCD threshold above 30% overestimates humid and dry forests and underestimates dry spiny forests in Madagascar. Our specific TCD thresholds inferred for each PA accurately estimate the forest cover in the vast majority of PAs. Using these specific TCD thresholds will allow for improved monitoring of forest cover within the network of PAs. The methodology detailed here can also be applied in other geographic regions, and future improvements in data on forest cover—both remotely sensed and field-collected—will enhance our ability to estimate forest cover and its changes over time.
