description: We study how walls confining active fluids interact with asymmetric passive objects placed in their bulk. We show that the objects experience non-conservative long-ranged forces mediated by the active bath. To leading order, these forces can be computed using a generalized image theorem. The walls repel asymmetric objects, irrespective of their microscopic properties or their orientations. For circular cavities, we demonstrate how this may lead to the localization of asymmetric objects in the center of the cavity, something impossible for symmetric ones.

description: In the field of public health, treatment of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infection is a great challenge. Herein, we provide a solution to this problem with the use of graphene oxide-silver (GO-Ag) nanocomposites as antibacterial agent. Following established protocols, silver nanoparticles were grown on graphene oxide sheets. Then, a series of in vitro studies were conducted to validate the antibacterial efficiency of the GO-Ag nanocomposites against clinical MDR Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains. GO-Ag nanocomposites showed the highest antibacterial efficiency among tested antimicrobials (graphene oxide, silver nanoparticles, GO-Ag), and synergetic antibacterial effect was observed in GO-Ag nanocomposites treated group. 14.0 µg ml−1 GO-Ag treatment could greatly inhibit bacteria growth, remained bacteria viabilities were 4.4% and 4.1% for MDR-1 and MDR-2 E. coli bacteria, respectively. In addition, with assistance of photothermal effect, effective sterilization could be achieved using GO-Ag nanocomposites as low as 7.0 µg ml−1. Fluorescence imaging and morphology characterization uncovered that bacteria integrity was disrupted after GO-Ag nanocomposites treatment. Cytotoxicity results of GO-Ag using human-derived cell lines (HEK 293T, Hep G2) suggested more than 80% viability remained at 7.0 µg ml−1. All the results proved that GO-Ag nanocomposites are efficient antibacterial agent against multidrug-resistant E. coli.

description: The deconfined quantum critical point (DQCP) between the Néel and valence bond solid (VBS) order was originally proposed in quantum spin systems with a local Hamiltonian. In the last few years analogues of DQCPs with nonlocal interactions have been explored, which can lead to rich possibilities. The nonlocal interactions can either arise from an instantaneous long range interaction in the Hamiltonian, or from gapless modes that reside in one higher spatial dimension. Here we consider another mechanism of generating nonlocal interactions by coupling the DQCP to the "hot spots" of a Fermi surface. We demonstrate that at least within a substantial energy window, the physics of the DQCP is controlled by a new fixed point with dynamical exponent $z > 1$

description: Mobile robots are used in industrial, leisure, and military applications. In some situations, a robot navigation solution relies only on inertial sensors and as a consequence, the navigation solution drifts in time. In this paper, we propose the MoRPI framework, a mobile robot pure inertial approach. Instead of travelling in a straight line trajectory, the robot moves in a periodic motion trajectory to enable peak-to-peak estimation. In this manner, instead of performing three integrations to calculate the robot position in a classical inertial solution, an empirical formula is used to estimate the travelled distance. Two types of MoRPI approaches are suggested, where one is based on both accelerometer and gyroscope readings while the other is only on gyroscopes. Closed form analytical solutions are derived to show that MoRPI produces lower position error compared to the classical pure inertial solution. In addition, to evaluate the proposed approach, field experiments were made with a mobile robot equipped with two types of inertial sensors. In total, 143 trajectories with a time duration of 75 minutes were collected and evaluated. The results show the benefits of using our approach. To facilitate further development of the proposed approach, both dataset and code are publicly available at https://github.com/ansfl/MoRPI.

description: In the practical application of the Bridge Weigh-In-Motion (BWIM) methods, the position of the wheels or axles during the passage of a vehicle is in most cases a prerequisite. To avoid the use of conventional axle detectors and bridge type specific methods, we propose a novel method for axle detection through the placement of accelerometers at any point of a bridge. In order to develop a model that is as simple and comprehensible as possible, the axle detection task is implemented as a binary classification problem instead of a regression problem. The model is implemented as a Fully Convolutional Network to process signals in the form of Continuous Wavelet Transforms. This allows passages of any length to be processed in a single step with maximum efficiency while utilising multiple scales in a single evaluation. This enables our method to use acceleration signals at any location of the bridge structure serving as Virtual Axle Detectors (VADs) without being limited to specific structural types of bridges. To test the proposed method, we analysed 3787 train passages recorded on a steel trough railway bridge of a long-distance traffic line. Our results on the measurement data show that our model detects 95% of the axes, thus, 128,599 of 134,800 previously unseen axles were correctly detected. In total, 90% of the axles can be detected with a maximum spatial error of 20cm, with a maximum velocity of $v_{\mathrm{max}}=56,3~\mathrm{m/s}$. The analysis shows that our developed model can use accelerometers as VADs even under real operating conditions.

description: Currently, our general approach to retrieving molecular structures from ultrafast gas-phase diffraction heavily relies on complex ab initio electronic or vibrational excited state simulations to make conclusive interpretations. Without such simulations, inverting this measurement for the structural probability distribution is typically intractable. This creates a so-called inverse problem. In this work, we develop a broadly applicable method that addresses this inverse problem by approximating the molecular frame structure $|Ψ(\boldsymbol{R}, t)|^2$ distribution independent of these complex simulations. We retrieve the vibronic ground state $|Ψ(\boldsymbol{R})|^2$ for both simulated stretched NO$_2$ and measured N$_2$O. From measured N$_2$O, we observe 40 mAngstroms coordinate-space resolution from 3.75 inverse Angstroms reciprocal space range and poor signal-to-noise, a 50X improvement over traditional Fourier transform methods. In simulated NO$_2$, typical to high signal-to-noise levels predict 100--1000X resolution improvements, down to 0.1 mAngstroms. By directly measuring the width of $|Ψ(\boldsymbol{R})|^2$, we open ultrafast gas-phase diffraction capabilities to measurements beyond current analysis approaches. This method has the potential to effectively turn gas-phase ultrafast diffraction into a discovery-oriented technique to probe systems that are prohibitively difficult to simulate.

A geometric description of the non-Gaussianity generated at the end of multi-field inflation

description: In this paper we mainly focus on the curvature perturbation generated at the end of multi-field inflation, such as the multi-brid inflation. Since the curvature perturbation is produced on the super-horizon scale, the bispectrum and trispectrum have a local shape. The size of bispectrum is measured by $f_{NL}$ and the trispectrum is characterized by two parameters $τ_{NL}$ and $g_{NL}$. For simplicity, the trajectory of inflaton is assumed to be a straight line in the field space and then the entropic perturbations do not contribute to the curvature perturbation during inflation. As long as the background inflaton path is not orthogonal to the hyper-surface for inflation to end, the entropic perturbation can make a contribution to the curvature perturbation at the end of inflation and a large local-type non-Gaussiantiy is expected. An interesting thing is that the non-Gaussianity parameters are completely determined by the geometric properties of the hyper-surface of the end of inflation. For example, $f_{NL}$ is proportional to the curvature of the curve on this hyper-surface along the adiabatic direction and $g_{NL}$ is related to the change of the curvature radius per unit arc-length of this curve. Both $f_{NL}$ and $g_{NL}$ can be positive or negative respectively, but $τ_{NL}$ must be positive and not less than $({6\over 5}f_{NL})^2$.

description: A phenomenon of contemporary art history that has received scant attention to date is the authentication and de-authentication by an artist of his own early work. The best-known case of the attempt by an artist to define his own oeuvre, and to bracket out works that are immature, of dubious quality or otherwise unwanted, is that of German star painter Gerhard Richter. With a few exceptions, Richter recognizes as authentic only those works that he produced from around 1962 onwards, i.e. the year after his flight from the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) to the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG). A similar de-authentication of parts of his early oeuvre can also be observed in the case of Neo Rauch, who may be counted as one of the most successful worldwide among the contemporary artists of his generation.

description: In Europa entstand der Großteil des heutigen urbanen Raums in einem relativ kurzen Zeitraum, nämlich in den Jahrhunderten zwischen 1150 und 1350. Nie wieder sind in der Geschichte in so kurzer Zeit so viele Städte gegründet worden. Diese paneuropäische Urbanisierungsbewegung ergriff dabei nicht nur die wenig urbanisierten Regionen des Kontinents, sondern auch das bereits seit der Antike in hohem Maße verstädterte Mittelmeergebiet, darunter Ober- und Mittelitalien. Im Unterschied zum übrigen Europa ging in der Toskana die Gründungsinitiative jedoch nicht von einer individuellen Gründerpersönlichkeit oder von einem Gründerkonsortium aus, sondern ganz nach antiker Tradition von einer Mutterstadt. Mit der Gründung von kleinen urbanen Filialen wetteiferten die durch Handel zu Reichtum gekommenen, mächtigen Stadtstaaten. Durch ihre Rivalitäten untereinander befeuert, entstand so in kurzer Zeit eine systematische Aufsiedlung rund um die Mutterstädte.

description: This study aimed to investigate the Integrated Performance Task (IPT) in enhancing the 21st century skills anchored on Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) of Applied Subjects in a Senior High School (SHS) offering Science, Technology, Engineering, and Technology (STEM) strand. An action research design involving both quantitative and qualitative analyses through online survey questionnaire was carried out. The data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation. SHS applied subjects incorporated in the IPT were English for Academic and Professional Purposes (E.A.P.P.), Entrepreneurship, Empowerment Technologies, Inquiries, Investigations and Immersion (I.I.I.), and Practical Research 1 and 2. Findings revealed that contextualized IPT has a positive impact on critical thinking, collaborative skills, creativity and innovation, technology application, class participation, and achievement of learners. Collaborative skills had the highest degree of perceived effectiveness. On the other hand, critical thinking skill needs improvement especially on how it will be incorporated in IPT for distance learning. These findings indicated that students’ integrated performance in SHS applied subjects provided opportunities to develop 21st Century Skills together with better participation level. Furthermore, results lead to continuous curriculum review in order to identify overlapping competencies in core, applied, and specialized subjects in the SHS curriculum. The review will be a basis in designing contextualized IPT across learning areas that is aimed at enhancing students’ 21st century skills for different SHS Strands in various learning modalities.

description: This paper deals with existence and robust stability of hybrid limit cycles for a class of hybrid systems given by the combination of continuous dynamics on a flow set and discrete dynamics on a jump set. For this purpose, the notion of Zhukovskii stability, typically stated for continuous-time systems, is extended to the hybrid systems. Necessary conditions, particularly, a condition using a forward invariance notion, for existence of hybrid limit cycles are first presented. In addition, a sufficient condition, related to Zhukovskii stability, for the existence of (or lack of) hybrid limit cycles is established. Furthermore, under mild assumptions, we show that asymptotic stability of such hybrid limit cycles is not only equivalent to asymptotic stability of a fixed point of the associated Poincaré map but also robust to perturbations. Specifically, robustness to generic perturbations, which capture state noise and unmodeled dynamics, and to inflations of the flow and jump sets are established in terms of $\mathcal{KL}$ bounds. Furthermore, results establishing relationships between the properties of a computed Poincaré map, which is necessarily affected by computational error, and the actual asymptotic stability properties of a hybrid limit cycle are proposed. In particular, it is shown that asymptotic stability of the exact Poincaré map is preserved when computed with enough precision. Several examples, including a congestion control system and spiking neurons, are presented to illustrate the notions and results throughout the paper.

Temporal patterning of electroshock and retrograde amnesia
Creators: name: Jamieson, John Leslie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Treatments such as electroconvulsive shock (ECS) impair later performance of learned responses if presented shortly after learning, but not if delayed for a sufficient time. These gradients are frequently termed retrograde amnesia and interpreted as reflecting a memory consolidation process. The present investigation was concerned with the relationship of the length of the gradient produced by a single ECS to the duration of the memory consolidation process. In the first experiment, rats were trained on a one-trial passive avoidance task and then presented with one of three ECS treatments. The treatments were five ECSs of 0.5 seconds duration spaced either 1 minute apart, 5 seconds apart, or in one continuous 2.5 second duration burst. The five ECSs spaced 1 minute apart were found to impair performance when presented immediately, 1 hour, 24 hours, and 48 hours but not 9 days after passive avoidance training. Five ECSs spaced 5 seconds apart impaired performance when presented immediately or 1 hour but not 24 hours after training. In contrast, the single 2.5 second duration ECS impaired performance when presented immediately but not 1 hour or longer after training. The impairments produced by the five ECSs spaced 1 minute apart at 1 hour and 24 hours were found to be permanent over 11 days. The second experiment examined whether the long gradient produced by five ECSs spaced 1 minute apart was qualitatively different from single ECS gradients. Five ECSs spaced 1 minute apart were presented following passive avoidance training to rats anesthetized with ether or sodium pentobarbital. In both cases, the series of ECSs still impaired performance when presented 1 or 24 hours but not 9 days following passive avoidance training. This finding does not provide support for a distinction between the gradients produced by a single ECS and a series of ECSs. These results were therefore interpreted as showing that the length of the gradient produced by a single ECS in a passive avoidance task is not a good estimate of the duration of time required for memory consolidation. In this passive avoidance task, consolidation appears to continue for a period of at least several days, while the gradient produced by a single ECS was less than 1 hour. In the third experiment, rats were trained on a one - trial appetitive taste and then presented with either five ECSs spaced 1 minute apart, or a single ECS of 0.5 seconds or 2.5 seconds duration. In contrast to the results in the passive avoidance task, the five ECSs paced 1 minute apart did not produce a longer gradient than a single ECS of either 0.5 or 2.5 seconds duration. All three treatments impaired performance when presented 15 seconds but not 1 hour after training. Several possible explanations for the different effects of the series of ECSs in the two tasks are considered, and it is concluded that this difference probably reflects differences between the memory consolidation processes in the two tasks.

description: The formation of multiple beads along an injured axon will lead to blockage of axonal transport and eventually neuron death, and this has been widely recognized as a hallmark of nervous system degeneration. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we report a combined experimental and theoretical study to reveal key factors governing axon beading. Specifically, by transecting well-developed axons with a sharp atomic force microscope probe, significant beading of axon was triggered. We showed that adhesion was not required for beading to occur, although when present strong axon-substrate attachments seemed to set the locations for bead formation. In addition, the beading wavelength, representing the average distance between beads, was found to correlate with the size and cytoskeleton integrity of axon, with a thinner axon or a disrupted actin cytoskeleton both leading to a shorter beading wavelength. A model was also developed to explain these observations which suggest that axon beading originates from the shape instability of membrane and is driven by the release of work done by axonal tension as well as the reduction of membrane surface energy. The beading wavelength predicted from this theory was in good agreement with our experiments under various conditions. By elucidating the essential physics behind axon beading, the current study could enhance our understanding of how axonal injury and neurodegeneration progress as well as provide insights for the development of possible treatment strategies.

description: Concatenating data from the millimetre regime to the infrared, we have performed spectral energy distribution modelling for 227 of the 405 millimetre continuum sources of Hill et al. (2005) which are thought to contain young massive stars in the earliest stages of their formation. Three main parameters are extracted from the fits: temperature, mass and luminosity. The method employed was Bayesian inference, which allows a statistically probable range of suitable values for each parameter to be drawn for each individual protostellar candidate. This is the first application of this method to massive star formation. The cumulative distribution plots of the SED modelled parameters in this work indicate that collectively, the sources without methanol maser and/or radio continuum associations (MM-only cores) display similar characteristics to those of high mass star formation regions. Attributing significance to the marginal distinctions between the MM-only cores and the high-mass star formation sample we draw hypotheses regarding the nature of the MM-only cores, including the possibility that the population itself is comprised of different types of source, and discuss their role in the formation scenarios of massive star formation. In addition, we discuss the usefulness and limitations of SED modelling and its application to the field. From this work, it is clear that within the valid parameter ranges, SEDs utilising current far-infrared data can not be used to determine the evolution of massive protostars or massive young stellar objects.

description: Much research has been devoted to the problem of learning fair representations; however, they do not explicitly the relationship between latent representations. In many real-world applications, there may be causal relationships between latent representations. Furthermore, most fair representation learning methods focus on group-level fairness and are based on correlations, ignoring the causal relationships underlying the data. In this work, we theoretically demonstrate that using the structured representations enable downstream predictive models to achieve counterfactual fairness, and then we propose the Counterfactual Fairness Variational AutoEncoder (CF-VAE) to obtain structured representations with respect to domain knowledge. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better fairness and accuracy performance than the benchmark fairness methods.

description: This study aimed to investigate the Integrated Performance Task (IPT) in enhancing the 21st century skills anchored on Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) of Applied Subjects in a Senior High School (SHS) offering Science, Technology, Engineering, and Technology (STEM) strand. An action research design involving both quantitative and qualitative analyses through online survey questionnaire was carried out. The data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation. SHS applied subjects incorporated in the IPT were English for Academic and Professional Purposes (E.A.P.P.), Entrepreneurship, Empowerment Technologies, Inquiries, Investigations and Immersion (I.I.I.), and Practical Research 1 and 2. Findings revealed that contextualized IPT has a positive impact on critical thinking, collaborative skills, creativity and innovation, technology application, class participation, and achievement of learners. Collaborative skills had the highest degree of perceived effectiveness. On the other hand, critical thinking skill needs improvement especially on how it will be incorporated in IPT for distance learning. These findings indicated that students’ integrated performance in SHS applied subjects provided opportunities to develop 21st Century Skills together with better participation level. Furthermore, results lead to continuous curriculum review in order to identify overlapping competencies in core, applied, and specialized subjects in the SHS curriculum. The review will be a basis in designing contextualized IPT across learning areas that is aimed at enhancing students’ 21st century skills for different SHS Strands in various learning modalities.

description: By placing a collection of membranes in 11 dimensional background supergravity six form field and considering the non-linear action of multiple membranes we obtain the potential for transverse scalar fields of membranes and study some possible vacuum configurations. We find that the system has a stable vacuum in which is a formation of membranes into fuzzy three sphere.

description: In the field of public health, treatment of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infection is a great challenge. Herein, we provide a solution to this problem with the use of graphene oxide-silver (GO-Ag) nanocomposites as antibacterial agent. Following established protocols, silver nanoparticles were grown on graphene oxide sheets. Then, a series of in vitro studies were conducted to validate the antibacterial efficiency of the GO-Ag nanocomposites against clinical MDR Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains. GO-Ag nanocomposites showed the highest antibacterial efficiency among tested antimicrobials (graphene oxide, silver nanoparticles, GO-Ag), and synergetic antibacterial effect was observed in GO-Ag nanocomposites treated group. Treatment with 14.0 µg ml−1 GO-Ag treatment could greatly inhibit bacteria growth; remaining bacteria viabilities were 4.4% and 4.1% for MDR-1 and MDR-2 E. coli bacteria, respectively. In addition, with assistance of photothermal effect, effective sterilization could be achieved using GO-Ag nanocomposites as low as 7.0 µg ml−1. Fluorescence imaging and morphology characterization uncovered that bacteria integrity was disrupted after GO-Ag nanocomposites treatment. Cytotoxicity results of GO-Ag using human-derived cell lines (HEK 293T, Hep G2) suggested more than 80% viability remained at 7.0 µg ml−1. All the results proved that GO-Ag nanocomposites are efficient antibacterial agent against multidrug-resistant E. coli.

description: This resource is a single blog post created as part of the Day of Archaeology initiative. The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.
The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.

description: We develop optimised estimators of two sorts of power spectra for fields defined on the sky, in the presence of partial sky coverage. The first is the cross-power spectrum of two fields on the sky; the second is the skew spectrum of three fields. These can probe the Integrated Sachs Wolfe Effect (ISW) at large angular scales and the Sunyaev Zéldovich (SZ) effect from hot gas in clusters at small angular scales. The skew spectrum, recently introduced by Munshi & Heavens (2009), is an optimised statistic which can be tuned to study a particular form of non-Gaussianity, such as may arise in the early Universe, but which retains information on the nature of non-Gaussianity. In this paper we develop the mathematical formalism for the skew spectrum of 3 different fields. When applied to the CMB, this allows us to explore the contamination of the skew spectrum by secondary sources of CMB fluctuations. Considering the three-point function, the study of the bispectrum provides valuable information regarding cross-correlation of secondaries with lensing of CMB with much higher significance compared to just the study involving CMB sky alone. We use our analytical models to study specific cases of cosmological interest which include cross-correlating CMB with various large scale tracers to probe ISW and SZ effects for cross spectral analysis and use the formalism to study the signal-to-noise ratio for detection of the weak lensing of the CMB by cross-correlating it with different tracers as well as point sources for CMB experiments such as Planck (abridged).
