 Liquorilactobacillus vini (vi’ni. L. gen. n. vini of wine).
 Basonym: Lactobacillus vini Rodas et al. 2006, 516 VP
 The cells are motile rods, they do not produce exopolysaccharide from sucrose, but they utilize citric and malic acids [208]. L. vini was the first organism for which metabolism of pentoses via the pentose phosphate pathway to lactate as sole end product was described [18]. The metabolism for homofermentative metabolism of pentoses was initially described for strains later classified as L. vini [18, 209]. The genome size of the type strain is 2.24 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 37.5.
Isolated from fermenting Spanish grape must and from bioethanol industrial processes in different distilleries of Brazil.
 The type strain is Mont 4 T = CECT 5924 T = DSM 20605 T = JCM 14280 T.
Genome sequence accession number: AYYX00000000.
16S rRNA gene accession number: AJ 576009.

description: Relative monocular depth, inferring depth up to shift and scale from a single image, is an active research topic. Recent deep learning models, trained on large and varied meta-datasets, now provide excellent performance in the domain of natural images. However, few datasets exist which provide ground truth depth for endoscopic images, making training such models from scratch unfeasible. This work investigates the transfer of these models into the surgical domain, and presents an effective and simple way to improve on standard supervision through the use of temporal consistency self-supervision. We show temporal consistency significantly improves supervised training alone when transferring to the low-data regime of endoscopy, and outperforms the prevalent self-supervision technique for this task. In addition we show our method drastically outperforms the state-of-the-art method from within the domain of endoscopy. We also release our code, model and ensembled meta-dataset, Meta-MED, establishing a strong benchmark for future work.

Subjects: subject: Structural pattern recognition
subject: Graph matching
subject: Graph matching algorithms
subject: Image interpretation

description: In structural pattern recognition, graphs are a powerful and flexible data structure, allowing for the description of complex relationships between data elements. This flexibility comes at a cost, as the unconstrained nature of graphs results in a high computational complexity for graph matching algorithms. Various algorithms have been proposed to mitigate this complexity and make graph matching tractable. Additionally, in domains where the number of graph nodes is low, or where the data provides additional constraints, such as node and edge labels, graph matching has been effectively applied. Such applications include chemical structure matching, protein-protein interaction networks, and network analysis. In the domain of computer vision, graphs have been successfully applied to a number a problems including image segmentation, partitioning, and matching. However, for practical reasons, many of the image matching techniques that utilise graphs do not match graph topology directly. Instead, image graphs are used only to constrain feature locations, or spectral embedding is used to transform image graphs into vectors, which are then matched.

description: Deep neural networks for medical image segmentation often produce overconfident results misaligned with empirical observations. Such miscalibration, challenges their clinical translation. We propose to use marginal L1 average calibration error (mL1-ACE) as a novel auxiliary loss function to improve pixel-wise calibration without compromising segmentation quality. We show that this loss, despite using hard binning, is directly differentiable, bypassing the need for approximate but differentiable surrogate or soft binning approaches. Our work also introduces the concept of dataset reliability histograms which generalises standard reliability diagrams for refined visual assessment of calibration in semantic segmentation aggregated at the dataset level. Using mL1-ACE, we reduce average and maximum calibration error by 45% and 55% respectively, maintaining a Dice score of 87% on the BraTS 2021 dataset. We share our code here: https://github.com/cai4cai/ACE-DLIRIS

subject: Health and productivity

description: The global economic uncertainties, an ageing Australian workforce, increasing health care costs, and increasing rates of chronic disease all combine to create an urgency to better understand the relationship between health and productivity. Little is known about the impacts of health status on productivity in Australia. Even less is known about the impacts of co-morbid psychological distress on productivity losses for individual health conditions and clusters of non-randomly occurring health conditions, both in Australia and internationally. This study addresses these gaps in knowledge by exploring associations between health and productivity, adjusting for known demographic and working conditions factors, in a large sample of working Australians.
Gender, Academic Achievement, and Meanings of Schooling in Ras al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates

description: This study examines an interesting phenomenon: the educational gap between boys and girls in the United Arab Emirates. Drawing on literature in sociology of gender, sociology of education, and Middle East Studies, this dissertation explores who is and who is not academically achieving (defined through exams results, event drop out rates, and intention to graduate from secondary school) in the United Arab Emirates. Additionally, student and teacher beliefs about the meanings of schooling were investigated. The study begins with a broad picture of academic achievement in the United Arab Emirates then focuses on one emirate, Ras Al Khaimah. Ministry of Education data from the 2007-2008 school year, 42 teacher interviews, and 117 student questionnaires provided data for this study. Ministry of Education data were analyzed using chi square tests to determine which boys and which girls are achieving academically in the United Arab Emirates. This analysis confirmed earlier studies that indicated boys are more likely to drop out and to fail exams than their female counterparts. In addition, non-Emirati boys were found to outperform their Emirati peers. The remainder of the study focused on 9th grade boys and girls and their teachers in Ras Al Khaimah. Through logistic regression of data from the questionnaire, student academic self-concept was found to be a significant predictor of student intent to graduate. In addition, the study sought to examine the purposes of schooling according to teachers and students. Results showed that teachers saw the purpose of school as providing increased employment opportunities for girls and for non-Emirati boys. However, teachers did not think school was for employment for Emirati boys. Students reported different ideas about school. They saw school as a means to learning, as a social outlet, and as link to employment opportunities. The dissertation concluded with implications for theory, research and practice.

description: This research focuses on the underrepresentation of minoritized groups in scientific careers. The study is an analysis of the relationships between race, gender, and those with careers in the sciences, focusing on the lived experiences of Black women physicists, as viewed through the lens of women scientists in the United States. Although the research is geographically localized, the base-line question is clear and mirrors in the researcher's own intellectual development: "How do Black women physicists describe their experiences towards the construction of a scientific identity and the pursuit of a career in physics?" Grounded on a critical race theory perspective, the study uses storytelling to analyze how these women build their identities as scientists and how they have negotiate their multiple identities within different communities in society. Findings show that social integration is a key element for Black women physicists to enter study groups, which enables access to important resources for academic success in STEM. The study has implications for physics education and policymakers. The study reveals the role of the different communities that these women are part of, and the importance of public policies targeted to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in science, especially through after-school programs and financial support through higher education.

description: This thesis argues that the colonial ruling class developed its first White Australia policy in 1888, creating most of the precedents for the federal legislation of 1901. White Australia was central to the making of the Australian working class, to the shaping of Australian nationalism, and the development of federal political institutions. It has long been understood as a product of labour movement mobilising, but this thesis rejects that approach, arguing that the labour movement lacked the power to impose such a fundamental national policy, and that the key decisions which led to White Australia were demonstrably not products of labour movement action. ¶ It finds three great ruling class agendas behind the decisions to exclude Chinese immigrants, and severely limit the use of indentured “coloured labour”. ...

description: Computing optimal feedback controls for nonlinear systems generally requires solving Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations, which are notoriously difficult when the state dimension is large. Existing strategies for high-dimensional problems often rely on specific, restrictive problem structures, or are valid only locally around some nominal trajectory. In this paper, we propose a data-driven method to approximate semi-global solutions to HJB equations for general high-dimensional nonlinear systems and compute candidate optimal feedback controls in real-time. To accomplish this, we model solutions to HJB equations with neural networks (NNs) trained on data generated without discretizing the state space. Training is made more effective and data-efficient by leveraging the known physics of the problem and using the partially-trained NN to aid in adaptive data generation. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method by learning solutions to HJB equations corresponding to the attitude control of a six-dimensional nonlinear rigid body, and nonlinear systems of dimension up to 30 arising from the stabilization of a Burgers'-type partial differential equation. The trained NNs are then used for real-time feedback control of these systems.

 Species of Ligilactobacillus are homofermentative, their mol% G+C content is between 32.5 and 43.3. Several Ligilactobacillus species include strains that are motile. Most Ligilactobacillus species have been isolated from animals and humans and are adapted to vertebrate hosts. Several strains of Ligilactobacillus express urease, this enzyme is the most powerful bacterial tool to withstand gastric acidity; in lactobacilli, urease activity is associated with a vertebrate host-adapted lifestyle [210, 211]. Several Ligilactobacillus species also commonly occur in fermented foods and are used commercially as starter cultures or probiotic cultures.
 A phylogenetic tree on the basis of 16S rRNA genes of all species in the genus Ligilactobacillus is provided in Figure S6J.
 The type species is Ligilactobacillus salivarius comb. nov.; Ligilactobacillus was previously referred to as L. salivarius group.

description: Compressive Learning is an emerging topic that combines signal acquisition via compressive sensing and machine learning to perform inference tasks directly on a small number of measurements. Many data modalities naturally have a multi-dimensional or tensorial format, with each dimension or tensor mode representing different features such as the spatial and temporal information in video sequences or the spatial and spectral information in hyperspectral images. However, in existing compressive learning frameworks, the compressive sensing component utilizes either random or learned linear projection on the vectorized signal to perform signal acquisition, thus discarding the multi-dimensional structure of the signals. In this paper, we propose Multilinear Compressive Learning, a framework that takes into account the tensorial nature of multi-dimensional signals in the acquisition step and builds the subsequent inference model on the structurally sensed measurements. Our theoretical complexity analysis shows that the proposed framework is more efficient compared to its vector-based counterpart in both memory and computation requirement. With extensive experiments, we also empirically show that our Multilinear Compressive Learning framework outperforms the vector-based framework in object classification and face recognition tasks, and scales favorably when the dimensionalities of the original signals increase, making it highly efficient for high-dimensional multi-dimensional signals.

description: Large Language Models (LLMs) have garnered considerable interest due to their impressive natural language capabilities, which in conjunction with various emergent properties make them versatile tools in workflows ranging from complex code generation to heuristic finding for combinatorial problems. In this paper we offer a perspective on their applicability to materials science research, arguing their ability to handle ambiguous requirements across a range of tasks and disciplines mean they could be a powerful tool to aid researchers. We qualitatively examine basic LLM theory, connecting it to relevant properties and techniques in the literature before providing two case studies that demonstrate their use in task automation and knowledge extraction at-scale. At their current stage of development, we argue LLMs should be viewed less as oracles of novel insight, and more as tireless workers that can accelerate and unify exploration across domains. It is our hope that this paper can familiarise material science researchers with the concepts needed to leverage these tools in their own research.

description: We introduce a shell (``GOY'') model for turbulent binary fluids. The variation in the concentration between the two fluids acts as an active scalar leading to a redefined conservation law for the energy, which is incorporated into the model together with a conservation law for the scalar. The model is studied numerically at very high values of the Prandtl and Reynolds numbers and we investigate the properties close to the critical point of the miscibility gap where the diffusivity vanishes. A peak develops in the spectrum of the scalar, showing that a strongly turbulent flow leads to an increase in the mixing time. The peak is, however, not very pronounced. The mixing time diverges with the Prandtl number as a power law with an exponent of approximately 0.9. The continuum limit of the shell equations leads to a set of equations which can be solved by a scaling ansatz, consistent with an exact scaling of the Navier-Stokes equations in the inertial range. In this case a weak peak also persists for a certain time in the spectrum of the scalar. Exact analytic solutions of the continuous shell equations are derived in the inertial range. Starting with fluids at rest, from an initial variation of the concentration difference, one can provoke a ``spontaneous'' generation of a velocity field, analogous to MHD in the early universe.

description: Oulu University of Applied Sciences (Oamk) is a multidisciplinary and international higher education community of 9,000 students and approximately 460 employees. Our close cooperation with companies and communities creates the basis for our students’ high-level and up-to-date competence. The cornerstones of our operations are transparency, sustainability, and effectiveness. The focus areas of our research, development and innovation activities are low-carbon initiatives, digital solutions, and business development.

Oulu University of Applied Sciences (Oamk) signed the Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment and joined the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) in 2023. The first steps towards a new way to review research and development in Oamk were taken by evaluating the current state of operations and requirements of development to be fulfilled to achieve more responsible research and development assessment. In the preliminary Action Plan for research and development activities (for both R&D and educational activities), the joint title "applied research" is used to emphasize the application-oriented nature of the research and development activities of the university of applied sciences compared to the academic research of the university field.

In this document, Oamk describes the connection of CoARA Action Plan to other guiding documents, as well as presents the implementation plan for the years 2024–2027. The development plan is divided in two phases. During the years 2024–2025 Oamk will focus on the building up the required tools, mentoring programs, and operating model to be implemented in coming years. The second phase, the years 2026–2027, will be focusing on the implementation of the Action Plan, evaluations, as well as the further development of the Action Plan for the years 2028–2032.

description: Online Social Networks (OSNs) allow personalities and companies to communicate directly with the public, bypassing filters of traditional medias. As people rely on OSNs to stay up-to-date, the political debate has moved online too. We witness the sudden explosion of harsh political debates and the dissemination of rumours in OSNs. Identifying such behaviour requires a deep understanding on how people interact via OSNs during political debates. We present a preliminary study of interactions in a popular OSN, namely Instagram. We take Italy as a case study in the period before the 2019 European Elections. We observe the activity of top Italian Instagram profiles in different categories: politics, music, sport and show. We record their posts for more than two months, tracking "likes" and comments from users. Results suggest that profiles of politicians attract markedly different interactions than other categories. People tend to comment more, with longer comments, debating for longer time, with a large number of replies, most of which are not explicitly solicited. Moreover, comments tend to come from a small group of very active users. Finally, we witness substantial differences when comparing profiles of different parties.

description: The granting process of all credit institutions rejects applicants who seem risky regarding the repayment of their debt. A credit score is calculated and associated with a cut-off value beneath which an applicant is rejected. Developing a new score implies having a learning dataset in which the response variable good/bad borrower is known, so that rejects are de facto excluded from the learning process. We first introduce the context and some useful notations. Then we formalize if this particular sampling has consequences on the score's relevance. Finally, we elaborate on methods that use not-financed clients' characteristics and conclude that none of these methods are satisfactory in practice using data from Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance. ----- Un système d'octroi de crédit peut refuser des demandes de prêt jugées trop risquées. Au sein de ce système, le score de crédit fournit une valeur mesurant un risque de défaut, valeur qui est comparée à un seuil d'acceptabilité. Ce score est construit exclusivement sur des données de clients financés, contenant en particulier l'information `bon ou mauvais payeur', alors qu'il est par la suite appliqué à l'ensemble des demandes. Un tel score est-il statistiquement pertinent ? Dans cette note, nous précisons et formalisons cette question et étudions l'effet de l'absence des non-financés sur les scores élaborés. Nous présentons ensuite des méthodes pour réintégrer les non-financés et concluons sur leur inefficacité en pratique, à partir de données issues de Crédit Agricole Consumer Finance.

description: Hypersonic vehicles, based on scramjet engines, have the potential to deliver inexpensive access to space when compared with rocket propulsion. The technology, however, is in its infancy and there is still much to be learned from fundamental studies. ¶ Flows that represent the conditions inside a scramjet engine can be generated in ground tests using a free-piston shock tunnel and a combustor model. These facilities provide a convenient location for fundamental studies and principles learned during ground tests can be applied to the design of a full-scale vehicle.¶ A wide range of diagnostics have been used for studying scramjet flows, including surface measurements and optical visualisation techniques.¶ The aim of this work is to test the effectiveness of tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) as a scramjet diagnostic.¶ ...
Characterizing web pornography consumption from passive measurements

description: Web pornography represents a large fraction of the Internet traffic, with thousands of websites and millions of users. Studying web pornography consumption allows understanding human behaviors and it is crucial for medical and psychological research. However, given the lack of public data, these works typically build on surveys, limited by different factors, e.g. unreliable answers that volunteers may (involuntarily) provide. In this work, we collect anonymized accesses to pornography websites using HTTP-level passive traces. Our dataset includes about 15 000 broadband subscribers over a period of 3 years. We use it to provide quantitative information about the interactions of users with pornographic websites, focusing on time and frequency of use, habits, and trends. We distribute our anonymized dataset to the community to ease reproducibility and allow further studies.

description: We consider the design of asymmetric multiple description lattice quantizers that cover the entire spectrum of the distortion profile, ranging from symmetric or balanced to successively refinable. We present a solution to a labeling problem, which is an important part of the construction, along with a general design procedure. This procedure is illustrated using the Z^2 lattice. The asymptotic performance of the quantizer is analyzed in the high-rate case. We also evaluate its rate-distortion performance and compare it to known information theoretic bounds.

description: The Tribomechadynamics Research Challenge (TRC) was a blind prediction of the vibration behavior of a thin plate clamped on two sides using bolted joints. The first bending mode's natural frequency and damping ratio were requested as function of the amplitude, starting from the linear regime until high levels, where both frictional contact and nonlinear bending-stretching coupling become relevant. The predictions were confronted with experimental results in a companion paper; the present article addresses the experimental analysis of this benchmark system. Amplitude-dependent modal data was obtained from phase resonance and response controlled tests. An original variant of response controlled testing is proposed: Instead of a fixed frequency interval, a fixed phase interval is analyzed. This way, the high excitation levels required outside resonance, which could activate unwanted exciter nonlinearity, are avoided. Consistency of testing methods is carefully analyzed. Overall, these measures have permitted to gain high confidence in the acquired modal data. The different sources of the remaining uncertainty were further analyzed. A low reassembly-variability but a moderate time-variability were identified, where the latter is attributed to some thermal sensitivity of the system. Two nominally identical plates were analyzed, which both have an appreciable initial curvature, and a significant effect on the vibration behavior was found depending on whether the plate is aligned/misaligned with the support structure. Further, a 1:2 nonlinear modal interaction with the first torsion mode was observed, which only occurs in the aligned configurations.

description: In a reinforcement learning task an agent must learn a policy for performing actions so as to perform well in a given environment. Policy gradient methods consider a parameterized class of policies, and using a policy from the class, and a trajectory through the environment taken by the agent using this policy, estimate the performance of the policy with respect to the parameters. Policy gradient methods avoid some of the problems of value function methods, such as policy degradation, where inaccuracy in the value function leads to the choice of a poor policy. However, the estimates produced by policy gradient methods can have high variance. ¶ ...

description: Despite its relevance, measuring the contributions of the bioeconomy to national economies remains an arduous task that faces limitations. Part of the difficulty is associated with the lack of a clear and widely accepted concept of the bioeconomy and moves on to the connections between methods, data and indicators. The present study aims to define the concepts of bioeconomy and to explore the connections between concepts, methods, data and indicators when measuring the bioeconomy economically, and the limitations involved in this process. The bioeconomy concepts were defined based on a literature review and a content analysis of 84 documents selected through snowballing procedures to find articles measuring 'how big is the bioeconomy?'. The content of the 84 documents was uploaded to the QDA Miner software and coded according to the bioeconomy concept, the methods or models used, the data sources accessed, the indicators calculated, and the limitations reported by the authors. The results of the occurrence and co-occurrence of the codes were extracted and analyzed statistically, indicating that the measurement of bioeconomy (i) need recognize and pursue the proposed concept of holistic bioeconomy; (ii) rarely considered aspects of holistic bioeconomy (3.5%); (iii) is primarily based on the concept of biomass-based bioeconomy (BmBB) (94%); (iv) the association with the concept of biosphere (BsBB) appeared in 26% of the studies; (v) the biotech-based bioeconomy (BtBB) was the least frequent (1.2%); (vi) there is a diversity of methods and models, but the most common are those traditionally used to measure macroeconomic activities, especially input-output models; (vii) depending on the prevailing methods, the data comes from various official statistical databases, such as national accounts and economic activity classification systems;...
