description: Understanding stochastic thermodynamics of active Brownian particles (ABPs) system has been an important topic in very recent years. In this article we study a general model of active Brownian particle systems by introducing a coarse-grained Fokker-Planck equation, which allows us to identify an effective entropy production along a stochastic trajectory, wherein an activity and configuration dependent diffusion coefficient comes into play with an important role. Although the hidden component between the true entropy production and the effective one is dominant, the effective entropy production still act as a reliable measure to quantify the dynamical irreversibility, capturing important phenomenon such as the interface and defects of motility induced phase separation (MIPS). Furthermore, in this framework, we are able to obtain the entropic bound as well as TUR associated with any generalized currents in the systems. We expect the new conceptual quantities proposed here to be broadly used in the context of active matter.

A Bayesian Approach to Multiple-Output Quantile Regression
Creators: name: Guggisberg, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper presents a Bayesian approach to multiple-output quantile regression. The unconditional model is proven to be consistent and asymptotically correct frequentist confidence intervals can be obtained. The prior for the unconditional model can be elicited as the ex-ante knowledge of the distance of the tau-Tukey depth contour to the Tukey median, the first prior of its kind. A proposal for conditional regression is also presented. The model is applied to the Tennessee Project Steps to Achieving Resilience (STAR) experiment and it finds a joint increase in tau-quantile subpopulations for mathematics and reading scores given a decrease in the number of students per teacher. This result is consistent with, and much stronger than, the result one would find with multiple-output linear regression. Multiple-output linear regression finds the average mathematics and reading scores increase given a decrease in the number of students per teacher. However, there could still be subpopulations where the score declines. The multiple-output quantile regression approach confirms there are no quantile subpopulations (of the inspected subpopulations) where the score declines. This is truly a statement of `no child left behind' opposed to `no average child left behind.'

description: Chrysops buxtoni Austen, 1922
 Chrysops buxtoni is a stout fly with medium size and distinctive broad head in the male and female (Austen 1922). In the Arab countries of the Middle East, buxtoni is uncommon and recorded from Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine (Kröber 1938; Theodor 1965; Müller et al. 2012b). However, the Iraqi record was considered a mistake by Theodor (1965). This species was recorded from Turkey (Erdoğmuş 2006) and Armenia as a subspecies Chrysops buxtoni armeniensis (Olsufjev 1977).

description: Conformal prediction is a popular tool for providing valid prediction sets for classification and regression problems, without relying on any distributional assumptions on the data. While the traditional description of conformal prediction starts with a nonconformity score, we provide an alternate (but equivalent) view that starts with a sequence of nested sets and calibrates them to find a valid prediction set. The nested framework subsumes all nonconformity scores, including recent proposals based on quantile regression and density estimation. While these ideas were originally derived based on sample splitting, our framework seamlessly extends them to other aggregation schemes like cross-conformal, jackknife+ and out-of-bag methods. We use the framework to derive a new algorithm (QOOB, pronounced cube) that combines four ideas: quantile regression, cross-conformalization, ensemble methods and out-of-bag predictions. We develop a computationally efficient implementation of cross-conformal, that is also used by QOOB. In a detailed numerical investigation, QOOB performs either the best or close to the best on all simulated and real datasets. Code for QOOB is available at https://github.com/aigen/QOOB.

description: We study the angle between i) the standard jet axis, ii) the axis of a jet which has been groomed using soft drop, with reduced sensitivity to soft radiation, iii) the jet axis obtained with the winner-take-all recombination scheme, which is insensitive to soft radiation at leading power. We calculate the distributions for these angles at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy, including non-global logarithms. The angle between the standard and groomed jet axis directly probes soft wide-angle radiation, leading to a novel factorization formula. This angle is also very sensitive to nonperturbative physics, which is directly connected to nonperturbative contribution to the rapidity anomalous dimension for transverse momentum distributions. Comparing our predictions to Pythia we find good agreement, and we foresee applications to jet substructure in proton-proton and heavy ion collisions.

 Chrysops caecutiens is one of the common species in Europe and Asia (Chvála et al. 1972). It is distributed throughout Europe, Turkey, and Iran, as well as through Russia to Mongolia and China (Abbassian-Lintzen 1964). This species was recorded from Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine among the Arab countries in the Middle East. In Jordan, it was collected from the Mediterranean part of the North (Müller et al. 2011).

Interrogating differences : intersectionality and participatory livelihood development in the upland forest of Tripura (Northeast India)
Creators: name: Sengupta, Mayuri
name: Harris, Leila
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Intersectionality is used in academic and policy circles to show how mutually constitutive axes of power and social difference intersect to shape lived experiences of inequality. The concept has made inroads in investigations of participatory development to examine people’s engagement, participatory experiences, and outcomes. However, in doing so, there is sometimes a propensity to treat categories of difference as fixed or given. This myopic focus encourages generalizations around how people and groups experience power and difference, and obscures a complex understanding of how these are lived, enacted, and conditioned by diverse subject positions and embodied experiences and practices in participatory development- thus shaping intersectional experiences and project outcome. This ethnographic case study shows how a tribal woman from an ethnic minority- named Purati- experiences, performs, and contests multiple aspects of difference and power in a participatory livelihood project in upland Tripura. Using feminist insights on intersectionality, interpellation, and performativity, and feminist political ecology and resource governance, we show how multiple and shifting categories of differences are constituted in two encounters between Purati and those implementing the project. We highlight how aspects of difference and their intersections, constituted, and enacted in time and place, shape experiences of intersectionality in participatory development, and how navigating and variously responding to these can reassert and rearticulate intersectional categories and relations. This nuanced analysis of intersectionality also provides an in-depth understanding of how the workings of difference and power shape participatory engagement, goals, and outcomes, and is key for debates and implementation regarding participatory development.

description: Chrysops italicus (Meigen, 1804)
 Chrysops italicus is halophilous species (Krčmar & Mikuška 2012). The larvae dwell solely in brackish waters (Chvála et al. 1972). Most specimens collected by Krčmar et al. (2008) were from brackish water. Chrysops italicus is a Palearctic species. It is distributed through Mediterranean Basin; Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and through Europe (South and central) to Turkey and Iran (Chvála et al. 1972). In the Arab countries of the Middle East, the species was recorded from Lebanon only (Müller et al. 2012b). Chrysops italicus and C. buxtoni were collected during attempting to attack man (Müller et al. 2012b). More sampling will increase the chance to collect hamatus and italicus in the remaining Arab countries of the Middle East.

description: The nature of the pseudogap phase remains a major barrier to our understanding of cuprate high-temperature superconductivity. Whether or not this metallic phase is defined by any of the reported broken symmetries, the topology of its Fermi surface remains a fundamental open question. Here we use angle-dependent magnetoresistance (ADMR) to measure the Fermi surface of the cuprate Nd-LSCO. Above the critical doping $p^*$ -- outside of the pseudogap phase -- we fit the ADMR data and extract a Fermi surface geometry that is in quantitative agreement with angle-resolved photoemission. Below $p^*$ -- within the pseudogap phase -- the ADMR is qualitatively different, revealing a clear transformation of the Fermi surface. Changes in the quasiparticle lifetime across $p^*$ are ruled out as the cause of this transformation. Instead we find that our data are most consistent with a reconstruction of the Fermi surface by a $Q=(π, π)$ wavevector.

description: The purpose of this paper is to investigate order of contact on real hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^n$ by using Newton polyhedra which are important notion in the study of singularity theory. To be more precise, an equivalence condition for the equality of regular type and singular type is given by using the Newton polyhedron of a defining function for the respective hypersurface. Furthermore, a sufficient condition for this condition, which is more useful, is also given. This sufficient condition is satisfied by many earlier known cases (convex domains, pseudoconvex Reinhardt domains and pseudoconvex domains whose regular types are 4, etc.). Under the above conditions, the values of the types can be directly seen in a simple geometrical information from the Newton polyhedron.

description: This article is concerned with Chern class and Chern number inequalities on polarized manifolds and nef vector bundles. For a polarized pair $(M,L)$ with $L$ very ample, our first main result is a family of sharp Chern class inequalities. Among them the first one is a variant of a classical result and the equality case of the second one is a characterization of hypersurfaces. The second main result is a Chern number inequality on it, which includes a reverse Miyaoka-Yau type inequality. The third main result is that the Chern numbers of a nef vector bundle over a compact Kähler manifold are bounded below by the Euler number. As an application, we classify compact Kähler manifolds with nonnegative bisectional curvature whose Chern numbers are all positive. A conjecture related to the Euler number of compact Kähler manifolds with nonpositive bisectional curvature is proposed, which can be regarded as a complex analogue to the Hopf conjecture.

description: We investigate the behaviour of quantum CHSH-nonlocality, $\rm F_3$-steering, and usefulness for teleportation in an interacting two-qubit dissipative system. We show regimes where these three quantum correlations can be extracted by means of local filtering operations, despite them not being displayed in the bare natural time evolution. Moreover, we show the existence of local hidden state (LHS) and local hidden variable (LHV) models for some states during the dynamics and thus, showing that apparently-useless physical systems could still exhibit quantum correlations, which are hidden from us, but that can still be revealed by means of local filtering operations and therefore, displaying the phenomenon of \emph{hidden} quantum correlations. We furthermore show that there actually exists a trade-off between the amount of quantum correlations which can be extracted and the filtering probability with which such protocol can be implemented. From a theoretical point of view, the existence of such trade-off imposes a fundamental limit to the extraction of quantum correlations by local filtering operations. From a practical point of view on the other hand, the results here presented determine the amount of resources that should be invested in order to extract such maximal hidden quantum correlations.

description: High precision time series photometry from space is being used for a number of scientific cases. In this context, the recently launched CHEOPS (ESA) mission promises to bring 20 ppm precision over an exposure time of 6 hours, when targeting nearby bright stars, having in mind the detailed characterization of exoplanetary systems through transit measurements. However, the official CHEOPS (ESA) mission pipeline only provides photometry for the main target (the central star in the field). In order to explore the potential of CHEOPS photometry for all stars in the field, in this paper we present archi, an additional open-source pipeline module†to analyse the background stars present in the image. As archi uses the official Data Reduction Pipeline data as input, it is not meant to be used as independent tool to process raw CHEOPS data but, instead, to be used as an add-on to the official pipeline. We test archi using CHEOPS simulated images, and show that photometry of background stars in CHEOPS images is only slightly degraded (by a factor of 2 to 3) with respect to the main target. This opens a potential for the use of CHEOPS to produce photometric time series of several close-by targets at once, as well as to use different stars in the image to calibrate systematic errors. We also show one clear scientific application where the study of the companion light curve can be important for the understanding of the contamination on the main target.

description: Analysis pipelines commonly use high-level technologies that are popular when created, but are unlikely to be readable, executable, or sustainable in the long term. A set of criteria is introduced to address this problem: Completeness (no execution requirement beyond a minimal Unix-like operating system, no administrator privileges, no network connection, and storage primarily in plain text); modular design; minimal complexity; scalability; verifiable inputs and outputs; version control; linking analysis with narrative; and free and open source software. As a proof of concept, we introduce "Maneage" (Managing data lineage), enabling cheap archiving, provenance extraction, and peer verification that has been tested in several research publications. We show that longevity is a realistic requirement that does not sacrifice immediate or short-term reproducibility. The caveats (with proposed solutions) are then discussed and we conclude with the benefits for the various stakeholders. This article is itself a Maneage'd project (project commit 54e4eb2).

Philoliche magrettii

description: Philoliche magrettii (Bezzi, 1901)
 Philoliche magrettii is one of the horseflies with long tongue (Al-Dhafer et al. 2009). It was recorded from Afrotropical regions; Eritrea, Ethiopia, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Somalia, Sudan, and Tanzania (Ježek 2017). In the Arab countries of the Middle East, the species was recorded from Saudi Arabia (Amoudi 1989). In Somalia and Sudan, magretti had been incriminated as a major vector of Camel trypanosomiasis (Dirie et al. 1989; Rahman 2005).

description: The Myc family of transcription factors are involved in the development and progression of numerous cancers, including prostate cancer (PCa). Under the pressure of androgen receptor (AR)-directed therapies resistance can occur, leading to the lethal form of PCa known as neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC), characterized among other features by N-Myc overexpression. There are no clinically approved treatments for NEPC, translating into poor patient prognosis and survival. Therefore, there is a pressing need to develop novel therapeutic avenues to treat NEPC patients. In this study, we investigate the N-Myc-Max DNA binding domain (DBD) as a potential target for small molecule inhibitors and utilize computer-aided drug design (CADD) approaches to discover prospective hits. Through further exploration and optimization, a compound, VPC-70619, was identified with notable anti-N-Myc potency and strong antiproliferative activity against numerous N-Myc expressing cell lines, including those representing NEPC.

description: In this paper, we explore power law solution of FLRW universe model that is associated with a variable cosmological term $Λ(t)$ as a linear function of $\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}, (\frac{\dot{a}}{a})^2$ and $ρ$. The model parameters were estimated on the basis of the four data sets: The Hubble 46 data, the Union 2.1 compilation data sets comprising of distance modulus of 580 SNIa supernovae at different redshifts, the Pantheon data set which contains Apparent magnitudes of 1048 SNIa supernovae at various redshifts and finally BAO data set of volume averaged distances at 5 redshifts. We employ the conventional Bayesian methodology to analyze the observational data and also the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique to derive the posterior distributions of the parameters. The best fit values of Hubble parameter $H_0$ as per the four data sets are found as $61.53^{+0.453}_{-0.456}$, $ 69.270^{+0.229}_{-0.228}$, $78.116^ {+0.480}_{-0.479}$, and $ 71.318 ^{+2.473}_{-2.283}$ respectively. Off late the present value of Hubble parameters $H_0$ were empirically given as 73 and 67.7 (km/s)/Mpc using distance ladder techniques and measurements of the cosmic microwave background. The OHD+BAO+Union and ~OHD+Pan+BAO+Union combined data sets provide the best fit Hubble parameter value $H_0$ as $67.427^{+0.197}_{-0.199}$ and $74.997^{+0.143}_{-0.145}$ respectively. The various geometrical and physical properties of the model were also investigated and were found in good agreements with observations.

description: Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) systems have been shown to efficiently build good models for new datasets. However, it is often not clear how well they can adapt when the data evolves over time. The main goal of this study is to understand the effect of data stream challenges such as concept drift on the performance of AutoML methods, and which adaptation strategies can be employed to make them more robust. To that end, we propose 6 concept drift adaptation strategies and evaluate their effectiveness on different AutoML approaches. We do this for a variety of AutoML approaches for building machine learning pipelines, including those that leverage Bayesian optimization, genetic programming, and random search with automated stacking. These are evaluated empirically on real-world and synthetic data streams with different types of concept drift. Based on this analysis, we propose ways to develop more sophisticated and robust AutoML techniques.

description: Many experiments record sequential trajectories where each trajectory consists of oscillations and fluctuations around zero. Such trajectories can be viewed as zero-mean functional data. When there are structural breaks (on the sequence of trajectories) in higher order moments, it is not always easy to spot these by mere visual inspection. Motivated by this challenging problem in brain signal analysis, we propose a detection and testing procedure to find the change point in functional covariance. The detection procedure is based on the cumulative sum statistics (CUSUM). The classical testing procedure for functional data depends on a null distribution which depends on infinitely many unknown parameters, though in practice only a finite number of these can be included for the hypothesis test of the existence of change point. This paper provides some theoretical insights on the influence of the number of parameters. Meanwhile, the asymptotic properties of the estimated change point are developed. The effectiveness of the proposed method is numerically validated in simulation studies and an application to investigate changes in rat brain signals following an experimentally-induced stroke.

Amaterasu Cosmic Ray as Possible Support for Electromagnetic Acceleration

description: The Amaterasu (named for a sun goddess in Japanese mythology) cosmic ray particle announced in November 2023 is extraordinary. Its direction points back to the Local Void which contains no galaxies or known source. It is possible to show that the direction could not have been bent significantly by magnetic fields within the Milky Way. This collection of facts constitutes a paradox. In the present paper, we offer a resolution within the Electromagnetic Accelerating Universe (EAU) model in which a central rôle is played by charged Primordial Extremely Massive Black Holes (PEMBHs) whose Coulomb interactions underly accelerating expansion. Because structure formation of PEMBHs is electromagnetic while that for galaxies is gravitational, it is reasonable to expect PEMBHs inside the Local Void. We provide an example where the cosmic ray primary is an antiproton and present it as supportiing evidence for the EAU model.

 Dasyrhamphis carbonarius is a rare species recorded from Tunisia and Turkey (Chvála & Lyneborg 1970). It is known from Palestine and Syria (Chvála et al. 1972). This species was a synonym under Dasyrhamphis nigritus (Fabricius 1794) a long time ago. Chvála and Lyneborg (1970) have revised this species and adopted the name carbonarius for the current form by selecting a neotype from Turkey.

description: We consider pattern-forming fronts in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation with a traveling spatial heterogeneity which destabilizes, or quenches, the trivial ground state while progressing through the domain. We consider the regime where the heterogeneity propagates with speed $c$ just below the linear invasion speed of the pattern-forming front in the associated homogeneous system. In this situation, the front locks to the interface of the heterogeneity leaving a long intermediate state lying near the unstable ground state, possibly allowing for growth of perturbations. This manifests itself in the spectrum of the linearization about the front through the accumulation of eigenvalues onto the absolute spectrum associated with the unstable ground state. As the quench speed $c$ increases towards the linear invasion speed, the absolute spectrum stabilizes with the same rate at which eigenvalues accumulate onto it allowing us to rigorously establish spectrally stability of the front in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$. The presence of unstable absolute spectrum poses a technical challenge as spatial eigenvalues along the intermediate state no longer admit a hyperbolic splitting and standard tools such as exponential dichotomies are unavailable. Instead, we projectivize the linear flow, and use Riemann surface unfolding in combination with a superposition principle to study the evolution of subspaces as solutions to the associated matrix Riccati differential equation on the Grassmannian manifold. Eigenvalues can then be identified as the roots of the meromorphic Riccati-Evans function, and can be located using winding number and parity arguments.

description: Haematopota grandis Meigen, 1820
 Haematopota grandis is distributed widely in South of Europe and the southern regions of Central Europe, reaching England, Denmark, and Sweden (Chvála & Lyneborg 1970). The first antennal segment is very long and stout, with apical notch (Austen 1925). The common name of this species is long-horned cleg (Chvála et al. 1972). It was recorded from Palestine under Haematopota fraseri Austen 1925 (Theodor 1965). However, fraseri was synonmyzed by Chvála et al. (1972) under H. grandis.

description: Background The aim of this study is to describe and quantitatively analyze the histopathology of proximal long head biceps (LHB) tendinopathy in patients who have undergone LHB tenodesis. The hypothesis is that severe histopathologic changes of the LHB tendon (LHBT) will most likely be reflected with improved postoperative clinical outcomes. Methods The study included patients with isolated LHB tendinopathy or LHB tendinopathy associated with concomitant shoulder pathologies. All had failed conservative treatment (12 months) and had a positive pain response (> 50% reduction) pre-operatively after LHB tendon injection with local anesthetic. All underwent biceps tenodesis procedure between 2008 and 2014. Tendon specimens were collected and histologically analyzed with the semi-quantitative Bonar scoring system. Minimum follow-up time was 1 year. A subset of patients was retrospectively reviewed postoperatively and evaluated employing visual analogue score (VAS), short form survey (SF-12), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon (ASES) score, Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score, and Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) and postoperative return to work status. Results Forty-five biceps tendon specimens were obtained from 44 patients (mean age 50 ± 9.6 years). Histopathological analyses demonstrated advanced degenerative changes with myxoid degeneration and marked collagen disorganization. Minimal inflammation was identified. There were no regional differences in histopathological changes. Clinical outcomes did not correlate significantly with severity of histopathologic changes. Conclusions This study confirms that LHBT specimens in patients undergoing tenodesis demonstrate with the use of the Bonar score histopathologic changes of chronic degeneration and not inflammation. The correct histopathologic terminology for this process is LHB tendinosis. The histopathological changes appear uniform throughout the entire length of the LHBT which may inform the nature of the procedure performed.
