description: Marine debris poses a significant ecological threat to birds, fish, and other animal life. Traditional methods for assessing debris accumulation involve labor-intensive and costly manual surveys. This study introduces a framework that utilizes aerial imagery captured by drones to conduct remote trash surveys. Leveraging computer vision techniques, our approach detects, classifies, and maps marine debris distributions. The framework uses Grounding DINO, a transformer-based zero-shot object detector, and CLIP, a vision-language model for zero-shot object classification, enabling the detection and classification of debris objects based on material type without the need for training labels. To mitigate over-counting due to different views of the same object, Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) is employed for duplicate matching using local object features. Additionally, we have developed a user-friendly web application that facilitates end-to-end analysis of drone images, including object detection, classification, and visualization on a map to support cleanup efforts. Our method achieves competitive performance in detection (0.69 mean IoU) and classification (0.74 F1 score) across seven debris object classes without labeled data, comparable to state-of-the-art supervised methods. This framework has the potential to streamline automated trash sampling surveys, fostering efficient and sustainable community-led cleanup initiatives.

description: Mesurer l’ampleur de la fuite des capitaux est un exercice périlleux à l’issue incertaine et ce, malgré la littérature exubérante sur ce sujet. En effet, il existe plusieurs méthodes de calcul de la fuite des capitaux, qui diffèrent dans leur conception et leur portée en fonction des interprétations données en amont au terme « fuite des capitaux ». Les chercheurs ont adopté plusieurs classifications de ces méthodes de calcul, parmi lesquelles une classification basée sur la démarche de calcul qui distingue entre deux approches, directes et indirectes. L’objectif de cet article est d’interroger l’exhaustivité des méthodes communément utilisées pour le calcul de la fuite des capitaux, en prenant le cas du Maroc comme un exemple illustratif. En d’autres, termes, quelle méthode est la plus exhaustive pour le calcul de la fuite des capitaux ? Dans cette perspective, nous avons passé en revue les différentes méthodes de calcul mises en avant dans la littérature, en discutant leurs démarches d’estimation et en citant leurs avantages et inconvénients. Il ressort de notre analyse que la méthode résiduelle de la Banque Mondiale demeure la méthode la plus à même de donner des estimations fiables et exhaustives de la fuite des capitaux.

description: l’élargissement des disparités sociales et l’inégalité dans la répartition des richesses entre les territoires, le Maroc a dû le remettre en cause en élaborant un nouveau modèle de développement, qui donne plus d’importance à la conception territoriale dans l’élaboration des politiques publiques. Cet article examine le rôle de la communication territoriale dans la réalisation des objectifs assignés au nouveau modèle de développement économique élaboré par le Maroc. L’étude réalisée, par une analyse des travaux reliant la thématique, montre que l’adoption d’une politique de communication territoriale se voit nécessaire pour permettre, au niveau territorial, la mobilisation des acteurs locaux dans le cadre d’une approche participative, afin d’assurer une mise en place souple et efficace du nouveau modèle de développement. L’analyse menée montre le rôle et l’importance de la communication territoriale dans l’implication des acteurs territoriaux afin d’assurer une adaptation des objectifs assignés au nouveau modèle de développement.

description: Membrane technology has revolutionized the dairy sector. Membrane separations can be used either as alternatives to conventional techniques or as novel technology for processing new ingredients and foods. Different types of membranes are used in the industry for various purposes like extending the shelf life of milk without exposure to heat treatment, standardization of the major components of milk for tailoring new products as well increasing yield and quality of the dairy products, and concentrating, fractionation and purification of milk components especially valuable milk proteins in their natural state. With the advancement of newer technology in membrane processes, it is possible to recover growth factor from whey. With the introduction of superior quality membranes as well as newer technology, the major limitation of membranes, fouling or blockage has been overcome to a greater extent. Pressure-driven membrane processes, namely MF, UF, NF and RO facilitate separation of components with a large range of particle sizes.

description: This report details phase 4 of the work on remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) icing encounters and concentrates on methods by which tolerance to flight in icing conditions can be demonstrated. Tests have been performed in the NRC’s RPAS icing facility using a 0.56 m (22 inch) diameter rotor under Appendix C, freezing drizzle and freezing rain conditions that examine the ability of the rotor to maintain predefined thrust, torque and power performance throughout an icing encounter of fixed duration. For the purposes of this study, the rotor performance is determined by considering a hypothetical quadcopter RPAS concept with vehicle weights of 15 kg and 17 kg and a minimum operation time necessary to affect a safe landing from an altitude of 122 m (400 ft) at a descent rate of 1 m/s. It is shown that, under Appendix C icing conditions, the time taken for the rotor to reach its operational limit reduces as the liquid water content increases and that, at high LWCs, the rotor is not able to maintain adequate thrust within the specified time limit. For freezing drizzle conditions, the rotor also showed performance degradation and was able to maintain adequate operation for only the lighter precipitation rates tested. Similarly, for freezing rain conditions, the rotor reached its operational limit before the specified time for all but the lighter precipitation conditions and was shown to be more susceptible to icing at warmer test temperatures. This was likely due to the increasing three-dimensionality of the ice shapes formed at this condition. A means by which performance degradation due to icing can be simulated in dry test environments through the use of roughness attached to the rotor blades has also been investigated. The ability to simulate icing conditions in this way has the potential to offer RPAS developers a method by which tolerance to flight in icing can be assessed without needing access to dedicated icing facilities. It has been shown that, using silicon carbide grit spaced over the leading-edge region of the rotor blades (between 16% and 32% chord length), it may be possible to simulate performance degradation due to icing of individual rotor loading characteristics, e.g., thrust, torque or power, but does not offer a means by which the overall performance of the blade and, therefore, the impact of the RPAS operation under icing, can be established.

description: prevalent social phenomena such as poverty, vulnerability, exclusion, migration, etc. Accordingly, Morocco has implemented various approaches and initiatives to support this vital sector, including facilitating the establishment, provision of resources, and oversight of numerous cooperatives to ensure sustainability. This article attempts to answer the following issue: Can cooperatives contribute to the establishment of principles of social justice in the Al Haouz province? We will conduct a study based on a mixed methodology (qualitative and quantitative), including observation, interviews, and document analysis. The study argues that cooperatives in Haouz have promoted social justice by facilitating economic empowerment, social inclusion, and sustainable development. However, the study also reveals several constraints faced by cooperatives in Haouz, such as distance from the local market and a lack of financial resources, which limit their competitiveness and investment potential, as well as issues related to local marketing and product commercialization.

description: The Solar System Notification Alert Processing System (SNAPS) is a ZTF and Rubin Observatory alert broker that will send alerts to the community regarding interesting events in the Solar System. SNAPS is actively monitoring Solar System objects and one of its functions is to compare objects (primarily main belt asteroids) to one another to find those that are outliers relative to the population. In this paper, we use the SNAPShot1 dataset which contains 31,693 objects from ZTF and derive outlier scores for each of these objects. SNAPS employs an unsupervised approach; consequently, to derive outlier rankings for each object, we propose four different outlier metrics such that we can explore variants of outlier scores and add confidence to outlier rankings. We also provide outlier scores for each object in each permutation of 15 feature spaces, between 2 and 15 features, which yields 32,752 total feature spaces. We show that we can derive population outlier rankings each month at Rubin Observatory scale using four Nvidia A100 GPUs, and present several avenues of scientific investigation that can be explored using population outlier detection.

description: The performance of a 22-inch diameter rotor blade under icing conditions has been investigated using a dedicated test rig installed in a cold room at the Montreal Road campus of the NRC. Tests have been performed to examine the sensitivity of rotor thrust, torque and power to a series of icing conditions ranging from typical civil aviation icing environments (e.g., Appendix C of 14 CFR Part 25) up to those experienced in freezing drizzle precipitation. It has been shown that performance degradation is more pronounced for ice accretions formed from clouds containing smaller Median Volumetric Diameters (MVD) and higher liquid water contents (LWC). It was also shown that ice accretions formed at warmer temperatures (glaze ice) resulted in more rapid performance degradation when compared to those at colder conditions (rime ice).

description: Durant les deux dernières décennies, le Maroc a pu réaliser des progrès remarquables reconnus par les grandes institutions financières internationales, telles que le FMI et la BM. Toutefois, les effets des deux dernières crises mondiales ont dévoilé un certain nombre de fragilités macroéconomiques au niveau du secteur extérieur particulièrement. Cette situation soulève une problématique importante liée à la soutenabilité du secteur extérieur marocain. Cet article a pour principal objectif d'évaluer la performance du secteur extérieur national et de faire un diagnostic de sa position extérieure globale. Pour atteindre cet objectif, l'approche EBA a été appliquée afin d’examiner la soutenabilité du solde du compte courant de la balance des paiements en utilisant des données provenant du FMI et aussi des principaux organismes producteurs de chiffres au Maroc. L’examen des résultats de l’application de l’approche EBA, sur la base des données de l’année 2019, a permis de relever que malgré les efforts fournis par les pouvoirs publics pour améliorer la soutenabilité du secteur extérieur national, ce dernier reste relativement fragile selon les critères du FMI.

description: Gaussian scale spaces are a cornerstone of signal representation and processing, with applications in filtering, multiscale analysis, anti-aliasing, and many more. However, obtaining such a scale space is costly and cumbersome, in particular for continuous representations such as neural fields. We present an efficient and lightweight method to learn the fully continuous, anisotropic Gaussian scale space of an arbitrary signal. Based on Fourier feature modulation and Lipschitz bounding, our approach is trained self-supervised, i.e., training does not require any manual filtering. Our neural Gaussian scale-space fields faithfully capture multiscale representations across a broad range of modalities, and support a diverse set of applications. These include images, geometry, light-stage data, texture anti-aliasing, and multiscale optimization.

description: Federal Highway B15 is an important Bavarian north–south connection east of Munich’s metropolitan area. The construction of the western section of the Rosenheim ring road (Westtangente Rosenheim) reduces traffic in the town and increases the residents’ quality of life. The heart of the construction is the 192.50 m Aicherpark Bridge crossing both the Mangfall River and the Mangfall Canal. The flexible cable-stayed bridge was the best design for the difficult subsoil conditions. The subsoil, consisting of basin deposits, is a leftover from the ice age and prone to excessive settlement that had to be taken into account. The superstructure counters this problem by means of pylons clamped into the structure and traditional supports. Intelligent move. The entire construction can be lifted if required. The 50 m foundation elements are not visible yet crucial. Bored piles, drainage columns and displacement piles transfer the loads to the marine clay soil. The extradosed bridge with short pylons and shallow cables blends harmoniously into its environment. The structure does not steal the limelight from the tall trees nor from the buildings of the adjacent Aicherpark. The exterior longitudinal girders form a continuous visual band with the pylons. The cables are not anchored into consoles but into the inside of the girders, which creates a structurally, economically and visually durable construction.

The 2-sphere metric, Bondi-Metzner-Sachs metric, asymptotic Killing vectors, generators of supertranslations, as well as boosts and rotations of Minkowski spacetime, are all re-expressed in homogeneous projective coordinates. Last, the integral curves of vector fields which generate supertranslations are evaluated in detail. This work prepares the ground for more advanced applications of the differential geometry of asymptotically flat spacetimes in projective coordinates.

Des études empiriques suggèrent que la plupart des efforts de numérisation ne parviennent pas à atteindre l'efficacité recherchée dans l’université. Alors que la numérisation est un programme de recherche brûlant, seules quelques études ont exploré la question dans les universités Marocaines Cette étude, par conséquent, tente de combler le vide dans la littérature et d'identifier les facteurs qui influencent la numérisation dans l’université marocaine. Une étude de cas est menée dans l'une des plus grandes universités publiques au Maroc, Université Sultan Moulay Slimane Les données recueillies par les entretiens et l'examen des documents internes ont été analysés par thème. L'étude a abouti dans l'identification de trois facteurs influençant la numérisation dans les universités, qui sont liés à la technologie, l'organisation ainsi que l'environnement. La contribution de l'étude à la recherche et la pratique pernet d’effectuer une analyse holistique sur les facteurs déterminants de la numérisation de l’université marocaine.

description: We study a specific type of SCM, called a Dynamic Structural Causal Model (DSCM), whose endogenous variables represent functions of time, which is possibly cyclic and allows for latent confounding. As a motivating use-case, we show that certain systems of Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) can be appropriately represented with DSCMs. An immediate consequence of this construction is a graphical Markov property for systems of SDEs. We define a time-splitting operation, allowing us to analyse the concept of local independence (a notion of continuous-time Granger (non-)causality). We also define a subsampling operation, which returns a discrete-time DSCM, and which can be used for mathematical analysis of subsampled time-series. We give suggestions how DSCMs can be used for identification of the causal effect of time-dependent interventions, and how existing constraint-based causal discovery algorithms can be applied to time-series data.

description: Inductive knowledge graph completion (KGC) aims to infer the missing relation for a set of newly-coming entities that never appeared in the training set. Such a setting is more in line with reality, as real-world KGs are constantly evolving and introducing new knowledge. Recent studies have shown promising results using message passing over subgraphs to embed newly-coming entities for inductive KGC. However, the inductive capability of these methods is usually limited by two key issues. (i) KGC always suffers from data sparsity, and the situation is even exacerbated in inductive KGC where new entities often have few or no connections to the original KG. (ii) Cold-start problem. It is over coarse-grained for accurate KG reasoning to generate representations for new entities by gathering the local information from few neighbors. To this end, we propose a novel iNfOmax RelAtion Network, namely NORAN, for inductive KG completion. It aims to mine latent relation patterns for inductive KG completion. Specifically, by centering on relations, NORAN provides a hyper view towards KG modeling, where the correlations between relations can be naturally captured as entity-independent logical evidence to conduct inductive KGC. Extensive experiment results on five benchmarks show that our framework substantially outperforms the state-of-the-art KGC methods.

description: "Integral composite bridges with sheet-pile abutments represent a modern approach to bridge construction, combining the benefits of appropriate material choice (steel in tension and concrete in compression) and integral bridge design. This method eliminates the need for conventional expansion joints and bearings, this reducing the maintenance requirements and enhancing structural integrity. Especially for medium spans up to 45 m, the use of prefabricated elements such as VFT®-girders, helps to increase the economic feasibility as well as construction speed. Using sheet-piles as permanent foundation elements allows for greatly reduced carbon emissions and excellent soil retention capabilities near waterways, where sheet-piles are commonly used as pit-protection systems during construction.
For a widespread application of integral bridges with sheet-piling abutments, a generalized approach to dimensioning is currently lacking, preventing engineering acceptance. Within the scope of FOSTA research project P1521 “Integrale Spundwandwiderlager von modularen Verbundbrücken für einen zeiteffizienten Bauablauf” various investigations on the load bearing behavior of a modular frame corner in composite construction have been performed to identify load paths and capacities of different elements used.
Based on these investigations, the following paper proposes a simple dimensioning concept for spans up to 45 m using mostly modular construction while considering all relevant loads and structural effects from temperature and soil-structure interaction. The assumptions of the concept are cross-checked by numerical calculations using detailed FE-simulations to confirm load paths and section utilization. "

description: La mise en place des stratégies sectorielles au Maroc a été marquée par l'incohérence et la centralisation de la prise de décision, entraînant des disparités territoriales importantes. Pour remédier à cette situation, les experts ont recommandé l'introduction de la notion de territoire et de la territorialisation des politiques publiques afin d'atteindre les objectifs visés. Bien que le secteur agricole n'ait pas échappé à cette problématique, le projet Plan Maroc vert (PMV) a été mis en place selon une approche territoriale. L'objectif de notre étude est d'évaluer les effets de la territorialisation de la stratégie sectorielle Plan Maroc Vert sur le niveau de vie des producteurs de dattes dans les oasis de Drâa-Tafilalet, en utilisant une régression logistique binaire. Les résultats de notre analyse mettent en évidence une corrélation positive entre le niveau de vie des producteurs de dattes et plusieurs variables, notamment l'aménagement de leurs exploitations, l’approvisionnement en matières premières adéquat et une coordination efficace des acteurs sur le territoire.

description: This paper presents the derivation of object-specific traffic load models, using the investigation of the bridge “Donau-Wald-Brücke” near Winzer as an example. Due to unsatisfactory results from recalculations, a structural monitoring campaign was launched, involving both short-term and long-term measurements. The goal was to obtain adjusted coefficients for the verification of the ultimate limit state (ULS) and fatigue design. The paper discusses the chosen approach and presents some key results. Although the investigations are not yet fully complete, it is already evident that the volume of necessary repair and reinforcement measures can be significantly reduced.

description: This paper presents a review on methods for class-imbalanced learning with the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and its variants. We first explain the structure of SVM and its variants and discuss their inefficiency in learning with class-imbalanced data sets. We introduce a hierarchical categorization of SVM-based models with respect to class-imbalanced learning. Specifically, we categorize SVM-based models into re-sampling, algorithmic, and fusion methods, and discuss the principles of the representative models in each category. In addition, we conduct a series of empirical evaluations to compare the performances of various representative SVM-based models in each category using benchmark imbalanced data sets, ranging from low to high imbalanced ratios. Our findings reveal that while algorithmic methods are less time-consuming owing to no data pre-processing requirements, fusion methods, which combine both re-sampling and algorithmic approaches, generally perform the best, but with a higher computational load. A discussion on research gaps and future research directions is provided.

description: Multiple-RF (MRF) dressing allows trapping of ultracold atoms in novel spatial geometries, such as highly controllable bilayer structures for 2D ultracold gases, providing unique opportunities for the investigation of 2D quantum systems both in and out of equilibrium. Here, we give an overview of the recent developments of MRF-dressed atom experiments, illustrated by the detailed studies of universal relaxation dynamics across the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless critical point enabled by coherent splitting quench protocols and detection of correlations via spatially selective matter-wave interferometry.
