description: Extensive research works demonstrate that the attention mechanism in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) effectively improves accuracy. Nevertheless, few works design attention mechanisms using large receptive fields. In this work, we propose a novel attention method named Rega-net to increase CNN accuracy by enlarging the receptive field. Inspired by the mechanism of the human retina, we design convolutional kernels to resemble the non-uniformly distributed structure of the human retina. Then, we sample variable-resolution values in the Gabor function distribution and fill these values in retina-like kernels. This distribution allows essential features to be more visible in the center position of the receptive field. We further design an attention module including these retina-like kernels. Experiments demonstrate that our Rega-Net achieves 79.96% top-1 accuracy on ImageNet-1K classification and 43.1% mAP on COCO2017 object detection. The mAP of the Rega-Net increased by up to 3.5% compared to baseline networks.

description: We present a new approach to showing that random graphs are nearly optimal expanders. This approach is based on recent deep results in combinatorial group theory. It applies to both regular and irregular random graphs. Let G be a random d-regular graph on n vertices, and let λbe the largest absolute value of a non-trivial eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. It was conjectured by Alon [86'] that a random d-regular graph is almost Ramanujan, in the following sense: for every e>0, λ<2\sqrt{d-1} + e asymptotically almost surely. Friedman famously presented a proof of this conjecture in [08']. Here we suggest a new, substantially simpler proof of a nearly-optimal result: we show that a random d-regular graph satisfies λ< 2\sqrt{d-1} + 1 a.a.s. A main advantage of our approach is that it is applicable to a generalized conjecture: For d even, a d-regular graph on n vertices is an n-covering space of a bouquet of d/2 loops. More generally, fixing an arbitrary base graph H, we study the spectrum of G, a random n-covering of H. Let λbe the largest absolute value of a non-trivial eigenvalue of G. Extending Alon's conjecture to this more general model, Friedman [03'] conjectured that for every e>0, a.a.s. λ< ρ+e, where ρis the spectral radius of the universal cover of H. When H is regular we get a bound of ρ+0.84, and for an arbitrary H, we prove a nearly optimal upper bound of \sqrt{3}ρ. This is a substantial improvement upon all known results (by Friedman, Linial-Puder, Lubetzky-Sudakov-Vu and Addario-Berry-Griffiths).

description: Recent years have seen a growing interest in topological phases beyond the standard paradigm of gapped, isolated systems. One recent direction is to explore topological features in non-hermitian systems that are commonly used as effective descriptions of open systems. Another direction explores the fate of topology at critical points, where the bulk gap collapses. One interesting observation is that both systems, though very different, share certain topological features. For instance, both systems can host half-integer quantized winding numbers and have very similar entanglement spectra. Here, we make this similarity explicit by showing the equivalence of topological invariants in critical systems with non-hermitian point-gap phases, in the presence of sublattice symmetry. This correspondence may carry over to other features beyond topological invariants, and may even be helpful to deepen our understanding of non-hermitian systems using our knowledge of critical systems, and vice versa.

description: Abstract
Background: Epilepsy is defined as a disorder of the brain characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate recurrent seizures. i.e, 1) Atleast 2 unprovoked seizures >24 hrs apart 2) one unprovoked seizure and a probability of further seizures risk of 60% 3) Diagnosis of an epilepsy syndrome. Diagnosis of epilepsy( risk of recurrence of seizures) following First unprovoked seizure depends largely on the EEG study done following the episode. Thus this study is undertaken to analyse the clinical, radiological and electrophysiological features in patients presenting with first unprovoked seizure.Aim:To Study the Clinical, Radiological and Electrophysiological profile in patients presenting with First Unprovoked Seizure. Materials & Methods:Inpatients or outpatients who had experienced a single first unprovoked seizure presenting between January 2021 and June 2022 were included in the study. Demographic characteristics, Neurological history & examination, Laboratory parameters, Imaging studies and Electrophysiological Studies were analysed.Results:Our study included 30 patients, of whom 23(76.7%) were male and 7(23.3%) were female. Mean age was 24.5 +/- 13.76 yrs. 4(13.3%) patients had significant past history ie, Febrile seizures in 3(10%), Migraine in 1 (3.3%). There were 6(20%) patients with family history of seizures in immediate family. The number of patients who presented with more than 1 episode of seizure within 24hrs period was 3. The number of patients presenting with generalized or partial onset seizures (including secondary generalization), were 18(60%) and 12(40%) respectively.MRI Brain was abnormal in 6(20%) patients. The abnormalities noted were mesial temporal sclerosis and volume loss in 2 patients (6.6%), Focal cortical dysplasia in 2 patients (6.6%) and granulomatous lesions in 2 patients (6.6%).Interictal EEG abnormalities were found in 3(10%) patients, with focal IEDs in 1(3.3%) and bilateral IEDs in 2(6.6%) of them during first hour of recording. During overnight recording epileptiform abnormalities were noted in 10(33.3%) patients, with focal IEDs in 5(16.6%), bilateral IEDs in 3(10%) and focal with secondary generalization in 2(6.6%) patients.

description: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition with a relevant clinical and economic burden. Only 10% to 40% of COPD patients reporting a regular use of respiratory medications, including those who suffered from severe disease being prescribed with triple combination therapy, nominally long-acting beta agonist (LABA), long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). The recent market launch of fixed-triple LABA/LAMA/ICS therapy might contribute to improve medications adherence and costs containment, given the use of a single instead of two or three inhalers. Few data are available on costs due to triple therapy prescribed for COPD. In specific, there are no studies providing data on the potential costs saving whether COPD patients exposed to free-triple combination therapy were switched to fixed-triple combination. In this respect, we simulated some scenarios of virtual switching and calculated the related cost savings.

description: Uncertainty quantification is a crucial step of cosmological mass-mapping that is often ignored. Suggested methods are typically only approximate or make strong assumptions of Gaussianity of the shear field. Probabilistic sampling methods, such as Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), draw samples form a probability distribution, allowing for full and flexible uncertainty quantification, however these methods are notoriously slow and struggle in the high-dimensional parameter spaces of imaging problems. In this work we use, for the first time, a trans-dimensional MCMC sampler for mass-mapping, promoting sparsity in a wavelet basis. This sampler gradually grows the parameter space as required by the data, exploiting the extremely sparse nature of mass maps in wavelet space. The wavelet coefficients are arranged in a tree-like structure, which adds finer scale detail as the parameter space grows. We demonstrate the trans-dimensional sampler on galaxy cluster-scale images where the planar modelling approximation is valid. In high-resolution experiments, this method produces naturally parsimonious solutions, requiring less than 1% of the potential maximum number of wavelet coefficients and still producing a good fit to the observed data. In the presence of noisy data, trans-dimensional MCMC produces a better reconstruction of mass-maps than the standard smoothed Kaiser-Squires method, with the addition that uncertainties are fully quantified. This opens up the possibility for new mass maps and inferences about the nature of dark matter using the new high-resolution data from upcoming weak lensing surveys such as Euclid.

description: This study evaluated the risk of hospitalization among nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients with an outpatient COVID-19 diagnosis who discontinued vs continued apixaban treatment. Adult patients with NVAF with an apixaban prescription prior to an outpatient COVID-19 diagnosis were identified from Optum Clinformatics claims database (01APR2020-31MAR2021). Continuers were those who continued apixaban as of the index date (date of initial outpatient COVID-19 diagnosis) and discontinuers were those who had the last day of apixaban supply on or before index. Patients were followed from COVID-19 diagnosis to change of continuation/discontinuation status, switch, death, end of continuous coverage, or study end, whichever occurred first. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) was performed to balance cohorts. Cox proportional hazard models were used to compare the risk of all-cause hospitalization and hospitalization for ischemic stroke [IS], venous thromboembolism [VTE], myocardial infarction [MI], bleeding, and mortality. A total of 7,869 apixaban patients with COVID-19 were included: 6,676 continuers (84.8%) and 1,193 discontinuers (15.2%). Compared with continuers, discontinuers had a higher risk of all-cause hospitalization (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.23; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.08-1.40), IS (HR: 2.00; 95% CI: 1.03-3.87), VTE (HR: 2.37; 95% CI: 1.06-5.27), and mortality (HR: 2.28; 95% CI: 1.85-2.80). There were no significant differences in the risk of MI (HR: 1.01; 95% CI: 0.54-1.90) or bleeding-related hospitalization (HR: 1.13; 95% CI: 0.73-1.76). NVAF patients with COVID-19 who discontinued apixaban had a higher risk of hospitalization and thrombotic events vs. those who continued apixaban, with no significant difference in bleeding-related hospitalization.

description: We propose to use quantum information notions to characterize thermally induced melting of nonperturbative bound states at high temperatures. We apply tensor networks to investigate this idea in static and dynamical settings within the Ising quantum field theory, where bound states are confined fermion pairs - mesons. In equilibrium, we identify the transition from an exponential decay to a power law scaling with temperature in an efficiently computable second Renyi entropy of a thermal density matrix as a signature of meson melting. Out of equilibrium, we identify as the relevant signature the transition from an oscillatory to a linear growing behavior of reflected entropy after a thermal quench. These analyses apply more broadly, which brings new ways of describing in-medium meson phenomena in quantum many-body and high-energy physics.

The Notions of Regulation and Self-Regulation in Political Science

Publisher: name: Field of Focus 4
Year: 2017
Subjects: Regulation; regulatory state; self-regulation; steering

description: While political scientists concur about the increasing importance of regulation, the extant literature features a notable diversity of contemporary definitions of regulation. The various understandings of regulation put different emphasis on the role of the state and regulation as an instrument or a process, respectively. This article scrutinizes and clarifies the notions of regulation and self-regulation in the Political Science literature. Along three analytic questions – what is regulated, who regulates, and how is it being regulated? –, the essay illustrates developments from regulation as government intervention to regulation as governance and finally, regulation as various mechanisms of social control. The latter includes hybrid, private, transnational, voluntary and self-regulation. The article discusses the usefulness of modern notions of regulation, as well as potential future research trajectories. It concludes that there is a need for a conceptual consolidation that integrates different regulatory processes, actors and instruments and enables comparative, explanatory empirical assessments of regulatory impacts.

The Quadrupole Moment of Compact Binaries to the Fourth post-Newtonian Order: Relating the Harmonic and Radiative Metrics

Publisher: name: Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron, DESY, Hamburg

description: Motivated by the completion of the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) gravitational-wave generation from compact binary systems, we analyze and contrast different constructions of the metric outside an isolated system, using post-Minkowskian expansions. The metric in ``harmonic'' coordinates has been investigated previously, in particular to compute tails and memory effects. However, it is plagued by powers of the logarithm of the radial distance $r$ when $r\to\infty$ (with $t-r/c=$ const). As a result, the tedious computation of the ``tail-of-memory'' effect, which enters the gravitational-wave flux at 4PN order, is more efficiently performed in the so-called ``radiative'' coordinates, which admit a (Bondi-type) expansion at infinity in simple powers of $r^{-1}$, without any logarithms. Here we consider a particular construction, performed order by order in the post-Minkowskian expansion, which directly yields a metric in radiative coordinates. We relate both constructions, and prove that they are physically equivalent as soon as a relation between the ``canonical'' moments which parametrize the radiative metric, and those parametrizing the harmonic metric, is verified. We provide the appropriate relation for the mass quadrupole moment at 4PN order, which will be crucial when deriving the ``tail-of-memory'' contribution to the gravitational flux.

description: The measurement of the production of deuterons, tritons and $^{3}\mathrm{He}$ and their antiparticles in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 5.02$ TeV is presented in this article. The measurements are carried out at midrapidity ($|y| < $ 0.5) as a function of collision centrality using the ALICE detector. The $p_{\rm T}$-integrated yields, the coalescence parameters and the ratios to protons and antiprotons are reported and compared with nucleosynthesis models. The comparison of these results in different collision systems at different centre-of-mass collision energies reveals a suppression of nucleus production in small systems. In the Statistical Hadronisation Model framework, this can be explained by a small correlation volume where the baryon number is conserved, as already shown in previous fluctuation analyses. However, a different size of the correlation volume is required to describe the proton yields in the same data sets. The coalescence model can describe this suppression by the fact that the wave functions of the nuclei are large and the fireball size starts to become comparable and even much smaller than the actual nucleus at low multiplicities.

description: Detecting the cosmic rays, in particular gamma-ray, coming from the dark matter annihilation or decay is an indirect way to survey the nature of the dark matter. In the commutative space-time, the annihilation of the dark matter candidates (WIMPs) to photons proceeds through loop corrections. However, it is possible for WIMPs as well as the other standard model singlet particles to couple with photons directly in the noncommutative space-time. In this paper, we study two-photon annihilation of singlet WIMPs in the noncommutative space-time. If the noncommutative interactions are relevant to the relic abundance, one can exclude some dark matter masses using Fermi-Lat data.

description: Optical interconnects (OIs) based on vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are the main workhorse within data centers, supercomputers, and even vehicles, providing low-cost, high-rate connectivity. VCSELs must operate under extremely harsh and time-varying conditions, thus requiring adaptive and flexible designs of the communication chain. Such designs can be built based on mathematical models (model-based design) or learned from data (machine learning (ML) based design). Various ML techniques have recently come to the forefront, replacing individual components in the transmitters and receivers with deep neural networks. Beyond such component-wise learning, end-to-end (E2E) autoencoder approaches can reach the ultimate performance through co-optimizing entire parameterized transmitters and receivers. This tutorial paper aims to provide an overview of ML for VCSEL-based OIs, with a focus on E2E approaches, dealing specifically with the unique challenges facing VCSELs, such as the wide temperature variations and complex models.

description: The objective was to investigate the severity of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADCd) as reported in the published literature and to collate evidence of the clinical manifestations of AADCd, and the impact of the disease on patients, caregivers, and healthcare systems. Published articles reporting severity of disease or disease impact were eligible for inclusion in this review. Articles were searched in MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL, TRIP medical, and CRD databases in October 2021. The quality of the included studies was investigated using a modified version of the grading system of the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (CEBM). Descriptive data of the literature was extracted and a narrative synthesis of the results across studies was conducted. This review is reported according to the PRISMA reporting guidelines for systematic reviews. The search identified 970 unique reports, of which 59 met eligibility criteria to be included in the review. Of these, 48 included reports provided details on the clinical manifestations of AADCd. Two reports explored the disease impact on patients, while four described the impact on caregivers. Five reports assessed the impact on healthcare systems. Individuals with AADCd experience very severe clinical manifestations regardless of motor milestones achieved, and present with a spectrum of other complications. Individuals with AADCd present with very limited function, which, in combination with additional complications, substantially impact the quality-of-life of individuals and their caregivers. The five studies which explore the impact on the healthcare system reported that adequate care of individuals with AADCd requires a vast array of medical services and supportive therapies. Irrespective of the ambulatory status of individuals, AADCd is a debilitating disease that significantly impacts quality-of-life for individuals and caregivers. It impacts the healthcare system due to the need for complex coordinated activities of a multidisciplinary specialist team.

description: We show that the special relativistic dynamics when combined with quantum mechanics and the concept of superstatistics can be interpreted as arising from two interlocked non-relativistic stochastic processes that operate at different energy scales. This interpretation leads to Feynman amplitudes that are in the Euclidean regime identical to transition probability of a Brownian particle propagating through a granular space. Some kind of spacetime granularity could be held responsible for the emergence at larger scales of various symmetries. For illustration we consider also the dynamics and the propagator of a spinless relativistic particle. Implications for doubly special relativity, quantum field theory, quantum gravity and cosmology are discussed.

description: Non-Hermitian quantum systems have recently attracted considerable attention due to their exotic properties. Though many experimental realizations of non-Hermitian systems have been reported, the non-Hermiticity usually resorts to the hard-to-control environments and cannot last for too long times. An alternative approach is to use quantum simulation with the closed system, whereas how to simulate non-Hermitian Hamiltonian dynamics remains a great challenge. To tackle this problem, we propose a protocol which combines a dilation method with the variational quantum algorithm. The dilation method is used to transform a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian into a Hermitian one through an exquisite quantum circuit, while the variational quantum algorithm is for efficiently approximating the complex entangled gates in this circuit. As a demonstration, we apply our protocol to simulate the dynamics of an Ising chain with nonlocal non-Hermitian perturbations, which is an important model to study quantum phase transition at nonzero temperatures. The numerical simulation results are highly consistent with the theoretical predictions, revealing the effectiveness of our protocol. The presented protocol paves the way for practically simulating small-scale non-Hermitian dynamics.

description: To understand physician preferences for various attributes of pediatric combination vaccines. An online survey was completed by 400 US physicians (pediatricians and family physicians) who routinely administer vaccines to infants aged 1–12 months in outpatient settings. Respondents completed a discrete choice experiment (DCE) by selecting their preferred options from different hypothetical vaccine profiles with systematic variation in the levels of five attributes: vaccine presentation, number of injections administered at a single visit, completion rates, timeliness rates (within 30 days of recommended age), and years of availability for routine use, assuming similar cost, safety, and efficacy. Odds ratios and relative attribute importance scores were estimated using a random parameters logit model. Physicians (mean age 50.4 years, 52.5% women) preferred combination vaccines that reduced the number of injections administered at a single visit, facilitated higher completion and timeliness rates for the primary DTaP series, were available as a pre-filled syringe rather than a vial needing reconstitution and had been available for routine use for more than 1 year. All odds ratios were statistically significant. Physicians were twice as likely to prefer administering three injections in a single visit instead of four. The most important attribute was the number of injections administered at a single visit (relative importance 38%), followed by timeliness, completion rates, and vaccine presentation; years a vaccine has been available was the least important attribute. US physicians prefer pediatric combination vaccines that enable fewer injections to be administered at a single visit, facilitate higher completion and timeliness rates, are offered as a pre-filled syringe, and have been available for routine use for more than 1 year. The most important attribute of pediatric combination vaccines was a reduction in the number of injections administered at a single visit.

description: Phase singularities are loci of darkness surrounded by monochromatic light in a scalar field, with applications in optical trapping, super-resolution imaging, and structured light-matter interactions. Although 1D singular structures, such as optical vortices, are the most common due to their robust topological properties, uncommon 0D (point) and 2D (sheet) singular structures can be generated by wavefront-shaping devices such as metasurfaces. Here, using the design flexibility of metasurfaces, we deterministically position ten identical point singularities in a cylindrically symmetric field generated by a single illumination source. The phasefront is inverse-designed using phase gradient maximization with an automatically-differentiable propagator. This process produces tight longitudinal intensity confinement. The singularity array is experimentally realized with a 1 mm diameter TiO2 metasurface. One possible application is blue-detuned neutral atom trap arrays, for which this light field would enforce 3D confinement and a potential depth around 0.22 mK per watt of incident trapping laser power. Metasurface-enabled point singularity engineering may significantly simplify and miniaturize the optical architecture required to produce super-resolution microscopes and dark traps.

description: In this paper we prove that if $S$ is any finite configuration of points in $\mathbb{Z}^2$, then any finite coloring of $\mathbb{E}^2$ must contain uncountably many monochromatic subsets homothetic to $S$. We extend a result of Brown, Dunfield, and Perry on 2-colorings of $\mathbb{E}^2$ to any finite coloring of $\mathbb{E}^2$.

Investigation of K$^{+}$K$^{-}$ interactions via femtoscopy in Pb$-$Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} =2.76$ TeV at the LHC

description: Femtoscopic correlations of non-identical charged kaons ($\rm K^+ K^-$) are studied in Pb$-$Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon$-$nucleon collision $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} =2.76$ TeV by ALICE at the LHC. One-dimensional $\rm K^+ K^-$ correlation functions are analyzed in three centrality classes and eight intervals of particle-pair transverse momentum. The Lednický and Luboshitz interaction model used in the $\rm K^+ K^-$ analysis includes the final-state Coulomb interactions between kaons and the final-state interaction through $a_{0}$(980) and $f_{0}$(980) resonances. The mass of $f_{0}$(980) and coupling were extracted from the fit to $\rm K^+ K^-$ correlation functions using the femtoscopic technique. The measured mass and width of the $f_{0}$(980) resonance are consistent with other published measurements. The height of the $ϕ$(1020) meson peak present in the $\rm K^+ K^-$ correlation function rapidly decreases with increasing source radius, qualitatively in agreement with an inverse volume dependence. A phenomenological fit to this trend suggests that the $ϕ$(1020) meson yield is dominated by particles produced directly from the hadronization of the system. The small fraction subsequently produced by final-state interactions could not be precisely quantified with data presented in this paper and will be assessed in future work.

description: To explore the views of Research Ethics Committee (REC) representatives in the European Union (EU) on what the status quo is in terms of RECs’ activities after the approval of trial protocols for clinical studies. This is a qualitative study. The participants in this study are members or representatives of a research ethics committee from the member countries of the European Network of Research Ethics Committees (EUREC). Thematic analysis was the method to assess interview transcripts. Interviews of REC representatives from 19 countries across Europe reveals that REC post-approval activities are predominantly limited to review and approval of protocol amendments. The majority of the RECs do not have mandatory continuing reviews or receipt of notifications of adverse events or protocol violations. In fact, most post-approval activities are the remit of the regulatory authorities. The interviewed members were also of the opinion that RECs in the EU do not have the legislative support, the organizational structure, the expert staff nor time to do active post approval follow-up. Post-approval follow-up activities for clinical studies by RECs is a valuable resource and means for early detection and resolution of protocol deviations and violations. However, a majority of RECs within Europe do not have active post-approval follow-up of approved protocols. The interviews revealed that resource challenges such as time, personnel, and organizational structure contribute to the lack of follow-up by RECs. Some RECs in the represented countries do not identify post-approval follow-up as part of their mandate but instead place emphasis on the culture of trust between the RECs and researchers. Current EU Regulations do not directly address the role of the REC after the approval of clinical trials.

description: The empirical laws of chemical kinetics are studied from a microscopic point of view. An analysis based on elementary probability theory and combinatorics is enough to explain the kinetics law observed in experiments. Thus, an out of equilibrium system may be examined with tools available to a student who begins the study of statistical physics.

description: The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a dual-site experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies, able to resolve the neutrino mass hierarchy and measure $δ_{CP}$. DUNE will also have sensitivity to supernova neutrinos and to processes beyond the Standard Model, such as nucleon decay searches. The Far Detector (FD) will consist of four liquid argon TPC (17.5 kt total mass) with systems for the detection of charge and scintillation light produced by an ionization event. The charge detection system permits both calorimetry and position determination. In addition, the photon-detection system (PDS) enhances the detector capabilities for all DUNE physics drivers. The PDS of the first FD module consists of light collector modules placed in the inactive space between the innermost wire planes of the TPC anode. The light collectors, the so-called X-ARAPUCAS, are functionally a light trap that captures wavelength-shifted photons inside boxes with highly reflective internal surfaces where they are guided to Silicon Photo-multipliers (SiPM) by wavelength-shifting (WLS) bars. Functionality and operational tests of the X-ARAPUCAS to be installed in ProtoDUNE-SP phase II (FD DUNE prototype at the scale 1:20), as well as the measurement of their absolute detection efficiency is reported in this publication.
