description: Nickel is a strategic element whose production and consumption in over a decade has increased to over 39% and 71%, respectively. Generally, due to their complex mineralogy, laterites, the current attractive source of Ni, are subjected to hydrometallurgy and pyrometallurgy techniques without enrichment in order to extract Ni. Therefore, numerous investigations in vogue on laterite enrichment performed spanning from 1964 to date were reviewed in this article, and the future directions were proposed through critical synthesis. The possibilities of obtaining both higher recoveries and increase in grade for Ni were noticed using selective comminution-classification method followed by flocculation-flotation strategy. Hence, in order to improve on the reported Ni yields from selective comminution-classification process, one of the ways could be to subject the ore to a multi-stage selective comminution-classification method followed by subjecting the obtained concentrate to flocculation-flotation technique. Therefore, the findings of this investigation would aid in upscaling the production to meet the demand. Properties of goethite and serpentine were explored.Physical and flotation methods for laterite enrichment were reviewed.Future directions for laterite beneficiation were proposed.

description: In this paper we consider bilinear sparse forms intimately related to iterated commutators of a rather general class of operators. We establish Bloom weighted estimates for these forms in the full range of exponents, both in the diagonal and off-diagonal cases. As an application, we obtain new Bloom bounds for commutators of (maximal) rough homogeneous singular integrals and the Bochner-Riesz operator at the critical index.
 We also raise the question about the sharpness of our estimates. In particular we obtain the surprising fact that even in the case of Calderón--Zygmund operators, the previously known quantitative Bloom weighted estimates are not sharp for the second and higher order commutators.

title: Demographic Considerations and Population Policies in Development Planning: A Survey of Third World Countries With Case Studies of Bangladesh and Pakistan.
Creators: name: Stamper, Bruce Frederick Maxwell
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1979

description: This thesis seeks to determine the attention and importance given to population growth in the overall strategy of development planning. The first part of the thesis analyzes the population content of the national development plans of 60 developing countries. The findings indicate a surprising dearth of demographic data in development plans of the Third World. With a few exceptions, the data found in these plans are inadequate and are not presented in forms easily used by planners. The recognition of population problems is substantial: two-thirds of the countries studied mention a wide spectrum of population problems in their plans. Forty- three per cent of the countries studied propose some policy to reduce the rate of population growth. Still, the most important conclusion is that too few plans are preparing to accommodate for the inevitable growth of the population. The second part of the thesis is an investigation of population and development on a national level for the countries of Pakistan and Bangladesh. The analysis of Pakistan's and Bangladesh's development plans presents a picture of population planning in extremely adverse circumstances. Even though the plans did propose programmes to reduce population growth, implementation was difficult because of little demand for contraceptives, adminstrative and political obstacles and logistical complexities. Four conceptual frameworks incorporating theories of fertility decline, when analyzed for their relevance and utility in Pakistan and Bangladesh, all reveal theoretical or practical flaws. The family planning approach, the policy mainly relied on, has so far not been efficiently administered or demographically effective. A detailed analysis of a planning framework which incorporates population, income distribution and the evaluation of alternative development strategies illustrates the importance of the distributive aspect of development strategy, but reveals that the model lacks both the sophistication and the appropriate data to be analytically useful.

description: Dephosphorization is essential for utilizing high-phosphorus iron ore (HPIO), and this work prepared reduced iron powder via reductive roasting in a semi-industrial rotary kiln follower by magnetic separation. Under the conditions, reductive temperature of 1150°C, duration time of 60 min, mass ratio of briquettes to pea coal of 1:1, the reduced iron powder with an iron grade of 93.21% and phosphorus content of 0.13% was obtained, of which the corresponding iron recovery is 82.68% and dephosphorization ratio is 89.87%. The limestone reacted with gangue to form calcium aluminum silicate, preventing the reduction of phosphorate and in turn the formation of ferrophosphorus.

description: Recent technological advancements have significantly expanded the potential of human action recognition through harnessing the power of 3D data. This data provides a richer understanding of actions, including depth information that enables more accurate analysis of spatial and temporal characteristics. In this context, We study the challenge of 3D human action recognition.Unlike prior methods, that rely on sampling 2D depth images, skeleton points, or point clouds, often leading to substantial memory requirements and the ability to handle only short sequences, we introduce a novel approach for 3D human action recognition, denoted as SpATr (Spiral Auto-encoder and Transformer Network), specifically designed for fixed-topology mesh sequences. The SpATr model disentangles space and time in the mesh sequences. A lightweight auto-encoder, based on spiral convolutions, is employed to extract spatial geometrical features from each 3D mesh. These convolutions are lightweight and specifically designed for fix-topology mesh data. Subsequently, a temporal transformer, based on self-attention, captures the temporal context within the feature sequence. The self-attention mechanism enables long-range dependencies capturing and parallel processing, ensuring scalability for long sequences. The proposed method is evaluated on three prominent 3D human action datasets: Babel, MoVi, and BMLrub, from the Archive of Motion Capture As Surface Shapes (AMASS). Our results analysis demonstrates the competitive performance of our SpATr model in 3D human action recognition while maintaining efficient memory usage. The code and the training results will soon be made publicly available at https://github.com/h-bouzid/spatr.

title: An Analysis of the History and Discourse of the Tunisian Islamic Movement al-Nahda: A Case Study of the Politicisation of Islam.
Creators: name: Hamdi, Mohamed Elhachmi
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1996

description: The aim of this study is to discover and analyse the history and discourse of the Tunisian Islamic movement al-Nahda, within the context of post-independence Tunisian history and the progression of thought within contemporary Islamic movements. As such, the study is both historical and analytical. It tries to give an accurate reading of the emergence, rise and recent eclipse of al-Nahda, as well as a comprehensive analysis of its political, social and intellectual discourse. The importance of the study comes from the fact that it may be considered the first academic research done in English on the Tunisian Islamic Movement. Up to now, it has received only scant treatment in English sources. Even in Arabic or in French sources are rare, and are usually written by either sympathisers or opponents of the movement. The history and the ideas of the movement are analysed in six chapters. The first concentrates on studying the reasons and factors behind the emergence of the movement; the second on the politicisation of the movement and the implications of that politicisation for its priorities and discourse; the third on the three major confrontations between the movement and the Tunisian regime that culminated in 1991 in the banning of all al-Nahda's activities inside Tunisia. The basic concepts of a political Islam in the movement's literature are explored and analysed in chapter four, in particular the Islamists' belief in the comprehensiveness of Islam and their rejection of secularism. Chapter five then concentrates on studying the detailed proposal put forward by the leader of al-Nahda for the definition of a modern Islamic state. Chapter six addresses the Islamists' cultural agenda and their insistence on an Islamic identity for Tunisia, with particular reference to the perceived polarisation between Westernisation and Islamisation. The thesis also contains an appendix comprising some of the movement's most important documents translated from Arabic.

title: The Cultural Contribution of British Protestant Missionaries in China's National Development During the 1920s.
Creators: name: Dan, Cui
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1996

description: During the period 1920-1930, British Protestant missionaries engaged in many cultural activities in China. This study is designed to analyze their special role in China's national development and modernization. The opening chapter mainly introduces the significance of the missionary social gospel and describes its theological tenets. It also examines the origins of the movement for cooperation among the Protestant missions and the features of the main British missions. The thesis then turns to the areas in which the missions displayed their leading social concerns, deriving from their policies. Chapters 2 & 3 describe the major contributions of the missionary medical services, analysing both primary medical work (direct medical care) and secondary medical work (education, research, translations and publications, public health) . During the 1920s the Protestant missions were the most important force in medicine in China. Chapter 4 assesses the educational activities of British missionaries and their importance in the circumstances of China in the 1920s in triggering and moulding social change. Above all, the missionaries helped China to perfect her modem educational system and to understand Western learning and culture to much higher standards than previously. The following two chapters analyse the missionaries' role as social welfare workers and social reformers. Their work in this field included popular education, moral welfare, industrial welfare, famine relief, and rural reform, and constituted one of the most outstanding episodes in mission cultural activities. Chapter 7 discusses the British missionaries' influence in the movement of Chinese women's emancipation. In the 1920s many ordinary Chinese women, who had been untouched by the Revolution of 1911, were mobilized by missionary women's work. In contradiction to many traditional accounts, especially those of Chinese scholars, the final chapter assesses the positive cultural achievements of the Protestant missionaries and their unique role in promoting China's progress and modernization.

description: Esta dissertação de mestrado busca analisar o acelerado processo de expansão urbana visualizado nas sedes dos municípios pertencentes à região de Carajás na década de 2010, que ocorre mediante estratégias de transformação da terra rural em terra urbana através da produção de lotes urbanos em parcelamentos de empreendimentos urbanos. Sob a ótica da economia política, são discutidos os aspectos teóricos que envolvem as diferenciações da renda e a valorização da terra, em suas relações com o circuito imobiliário. A metodologia de cunho quantitativo organiza dados secundários sobre as mudanças espaciais - extensão de faces de logradouro, volume de operações de crédito imobiliário, que buscam aferir relações entre a expansão urbana e a realização de crédito imobiliário na região. Os resultados mostram que na década de 2010 houve um acelerado processo de expansão urbana, vinculado às frentes de transformações da terra rural em terra urbana fortemente relacionado à oferta e efetivação de crédito imobiliário, fruto de uma estratégia especulativa de valorização e apropriação da renda da terra – e de suas diferenciações em torno da criação de ativos de capital na forma de lotes de empreendimentos parcelamentos periurbanos na forma de chácaras e sítios incorporados a malha urbana por meio da instalação de equipamentos no seus entornos – comprovado pelo volume de crédito realizado maior na região quando comparado a média nacional e da Amazônia Legal.

title: C^0-inextendibility of the Kasner spacetime
Creators: name: Miethke, Benedikt Daniel
Year: 2024

description: Die Kasner Raumzeit ist ein kosmologisches Modell und ist eine exakte Lösung der Einstein Vakuum Gleichung Ric(g) = 0. Sie wurde erstmals 1921 von Edward Kasner in [1] beschrieben. Nach der Wahl einer geeigneten Zeitorientierung, können wir die Kasner Raumzeit als ein Modell eines sich anisotropisch ausdehnenden Universums ohne Materie interpretieren. Wir nennen {t = 0} den Urknall dieses Universums. Da hier auch koordinanteninvariante Krümmungs-Skalare (wie z.B. der Kretschmann Skalar) gegen Unenglich gehen, ist die Kasner Metrik offensichtlich nicht erweiterbar als C^2-regulare Metrik. In dieser Masterarbeit werden wir diese ”Singularität” genauer untersuchen und beweisen, dass die Kasner Metrik sogar nicht erweiterbar als C^0-regulare Metrik ist, was ein st¨arkere Aussage ist. Um dies zu beweisen, verwenden wir die Beweis Idee aus Jan Sbierskis Beweis der nicht-Erweitarbekeit der Schwarzschild Raumzeit als C^0-regulare Metrik in [8]. Auf den ersten Blick scheint sich die Schwarzschild Raumzeit fundamental von der Kasner Raumzeit zu unterscheiden. So modelliert erstere ein stationäres sphärisch symmetrisches Schwarzsches Loch und zweitere eine offensichtlich nicht sphärisch symmetrische sich ausdehnende Raumzeit. Jedoch teilen die Singularitäten beider Raumzeiten wichtige Eigenschaften, welche uns erlaubt die gleiche Beweisstrategie zu verwenden. Dies wurde, nach bestem Wissen des Autors, erstmals in [9] vermutet. Mit dieser Arbeit bestätigen wir diese Vermutung.
description: The Kasner spacetime is a cosmological model of an anisotropic expanding universe without matter and is an exact solution of the Einstein vacuum equations Ric(g) = 0. It depends on a choice of so-called Kasner exponents p1, ..., pd and if one of these is negative, then the Kretschmann scalar blows up as t → 0, i.e. there exists a curvature singularity. Thus, it is manifestly inextendible as a Lorentzian manifold with a twice differentiable metric. In this Master’s thesis we proof that it is even inextendible as a Lorentzian manifold with merely continuous metric, which is a stronger statement. We do so by adapting the proof of the C^0-inextendibility of the maximal analytically extended Schwarzschild spacetime established by Jan Sbierksi in [8].

description: The black hole X-ray binary H1743-322 lies in a region of the Galaxy with high extinction, and therefore it has not been possible to make a dynamical mass measurement. In this paper we make use of a recent model which uses the X-ray reflection spectrum to constrain the ratio of the black hole mass to the source distance. By folding in a reported distance measurement, we are able to estimate the mass of the black hole to be $12\pm2~\text{M}_\odot$ ($1σ$ credible interval). We are then able to revise a previous disc continuum fitting estimate of black hole spin $a_*$ (previously relying on a population mass distribution) using our new mass constraint, finding $a_*=0.47\pm0.10$.

description: One-shot Imitation Learning~(OSIL) aims to imbue AI agents with the ability to learn a new task from a single demonstration. To supervise the learning, OSIL typically requires a prohibitively large number of paired expert demonstrations -- i.e. trajectories corresponding to different variations of the same semantic task. To overcome this limitation, we introduce the semi-supervised OSIL problem setting, where the learning agent is presented with a large dataset of trajectories with no task labels (i.e. an unpaired dataset), along with a small dataset of multiple demonstrations per semantic task (i.e. a paired dataset). This presents a more realistic and practical embodiment of few-shot learning and requires the agent to effectively leverage weak supervision from a large dataset of trajectories. Subsequently, we develop an algorithm specifically applicable to this semi-supervised OSIL setting. Our approach first learns an embedding space where different tasks cluster uniquely. We utilize this embedding space and the clustering it supports to self-generate pairings between trajectories in the large unpaired dataset. Through empirical results on simulated control tasks, we demonstrate that OSIL models trained on such self-generated pairings are competitive with OSIL models trained with ground-truth labels, presenting a major advancement in the label-efficiency of OSIL.

description: This chapter presents, from our research on inclusive software within the context of a diversity and inclusion based STEM program at the University of Victoria, INSPIRE: STEM for Social Impact (hereafter Inspire). In a society with an ever increasing reliance on technology, we often neglect the fact that software development processes and practices unintentionally marginalize certain groups of end users. While the Inspire program and its first iteration in 2022 are described in detail in CHAPTER 26, here we describe our insights from an analysis of the development processes and practices used by the teams. We found that empathy-based requirements gathering techniques and certain influences on the software development teams' motivation levels impact the teams' ability to build inclusive software. This chapter begins with an explanation of the Inspire program and a discussion on what the term ``inclusive software'' actually means in our context before highlighting useful practices for designing inclusive software.
Structured quantum collision models: generating coherence with thermal resources
Creators: name: Cusumano, Stefano

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quantum collision models normally consist of a system interacting with a set of ancillary units representing the environment. While these ancillary systems are usually assumed to be either two level systems (TLS) or harmonic oscillators, in this work we move further and represent each ancillary system as a structured system, i.e., a system made out of two or more subsystems. We show how this scenario modifies the kind of master equation that one can obtain for the evolution of the open systems. Moreover, we are able to consider a situation where the ancilla state is thermal yet has some coherence. This allows the generation of coherence in the steady state of the open system and, thanks to the simplicity of the collision model, this allows us to better understand the thermodynamic cost of creating coherence in a system. Specifically, we show that letting the system interact with the coherent degrees of freedom requires a work cost, leading to the natural fulfillment of the first and second law of thermodynamics without the necessity of {\it ad hoc} formulations.

description: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit impressive capabilities in generating realistic text across diverse subjects. Concerns have been raised that they could be utilized to produce fake content with a deceptive intention, although evidence thus far remains anecdotal. This paper presents a case study about a Twitter botnet that appears to employ ChatGPT to generate human-like content. Through heuristics, we identify 1,140 accounts and validate them via manual annotation. These accounts form a dense cluster of fake personas that exhibit similar behaviors, including posting machine-generated content and stolen images, and engage with each other through replies and retweets. ChatGPT-generated content promotes suspicious websites and spreads harmful comments. While the accounts in the AI botnet can be detected through their coordination patterns, current state-of-the-art LLM content classifiers fail to discriminate between them and human accounts in the wild. These findings highlight the threats posed by AI-enabled social bots.

description: In this work, we discuss a recently popular type of recommender system: an LLM-based coding assistant. Connecting the task of providing code recommendations in multiple formats to traditional RecSys challenges, we outline several similarities and differences due to domain specifics. We emphasize the importance of providing relevant context to an LLM for this use case and discuss lessons learned from context enhancements & offline and online evaluation of such AI-assisted coding systems.

title: Myth and Masculinity in Japanese Cinema: Towards a Political Reading of the 'Tragic Hero'.
Creators: name: Standish, Isolde
Publisher: name: School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
Year: 1997

description: This study argues that in Japanese popular cinema the 'tragic hero' narrative is an archetypal plot-structure upon which male genres, such as the war-retro and yakuza films, are based. I address two central questions in relation to these post-war Japanese film genres and historical consciousness: What is the relationship between history, myth and memory? And, how are individual subjectivities defined in relation to the past? Chapters two and three examine the role of the 'tragic hero' narrative as a figurative structure through which the Japanese people could interpret the events of World War II and defeat, offering spectators an avenue of exculpation from a foreign- imposed sense of guilt. This narrative became part of a wider discourse which developed as a backlash against the criminalization of Japan through the conviction of her wartime leaders. In these chapters I analyse the ideological construction of the filmic 'tragic heroes' and their relationship to the popular interpretation of historical events. War-retro films are examined from the contextual perspective of the structuring opposition of a nativist Confucian ethic, and culture as defined in terms of western 'civilization' and encoded in the War Crimes Charter. Chapter one has traced the roots of this opposition to the formation of a nationalist consciousness through the invention of the kokutai in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to counter western imperialism. I argue in chapter four that the fantasy world of the nagare-mono (drifter) or yakuza film is also based on this underlying consciousness of opposition. However, in the case of the nagare-mono, the archetypal outsider, this opposition is found between the yakuza moral code, jingi, and the restraints to spontaneous male freedom imposed by modem culture and the law - the law in this instance being both the police and courts and the more subtle constraints imposed by social institutions such as the family. In this chapter I therefore conclude that one of the reasons for the great popularity of these films in the 1960s and 1970s lay in their ability to offer men meanings that could help them understand the contradictions between the reality of their everyday experiences and the ideological construction of masculinity. Thus while the earlier chapters were concerned with an ideological deconstruction of the 'tragic hero', the fourth chapter analyses masculine subjectivity as defined by the 'tragic hero' of the nagare-mono fantasy from a psychoanalytic perspective.
