description: (Forced) migration is a major issue all over Europe. To assess requirements and needs of refugees, self-reports such as surveys are a relevant data collection method. Nevertheless, most measurement instruments are developed and validated in Western contexts. Due to i.e. cultural and language differences, comparability cannot be taken for granted. With the help of multi-group confirmatory analyses and here measurement invariance analysis, it can be assessed if data fulfil prerequisites for statistical comparisons. We test four frequently used scales within social science and public health research (Brief-Resilient Coping-Scale, Attitudes towards Democracies, Loneliness, Locus of Control) with regard to their comparability amongst the three major refugee groups in Germany (Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan). Using data from the refugee sample of the Socioeconomic Panel (IAB-BAMF-SOEP) we investigate if configural, metric and scalar invariance – the three in context of survey research relevant types of measurement invariance – can be supported. For three out of four constructs, we fail to reproduce the factor solutions, that were suggested in the literature and found therefore limited configural invariance. Improvement could be reached by weakening theoretical assumptions about factorial structure. Scalar invariance – a prerequisite for meaningful mean comparison – was supported for none of the models. We conclude that statistical comparisons between the different populations are not given or at least restricted in the SOEP refugee sample.

Learning by Viewing: Generating Test Inputs for Games by Integrating Human Gameplay Traces in Neuroevolution

description: Although automated test generation is common in many programming domains, games still challenge test generators due to their heavy randomisation and hard-to-reach program states. Neuroevolution combined with search-based software testing principles has been shown to be a promising approach for testing games, but the co-evolutionary search for optimal network topologies and weights involves unreasonably long search durations. In this paper, we aim to improve the evolutionary search for game input generators by integrating knowledge about human gameplay behaviour. To this end, we propose a novel way of systematically recording human gameplay traces, and integrating these traces into the evolutionary search for networks using traditional gradient descent as a mutation operator. Experiments conducted on eight diverse Scratch games demonstrate that the proposed approach reduces the required search time from five hours down to only 52 minutes.
The role of foraging behaviour in recovering fur seal populations

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Large carnivores shape the structure and function of ecosystems as top-down effects on food webs can help maintain species diversity and resilience. This role is becoming more apparent as conservation efforts encourage the recovery and range expansion of many large carnivores. Many of the semi-aquatic pinnipeds are recovering well from past over-exploitation, particularly fur seals (Arctocephalus spp.). As populations return to pre-exploitation numbers and return to historical ranges, ecological theory predicts intra and interspecific competitive interactions will have a greater impact on ecosystem structure and function. The recovery of these populations provides an opportunity to explore the importance of competitive interactions, by investigating the behaviour of fur seals at the core of their ranges, where populations are at relatively high density and comparing them with those at the margins of their expanding ranges. The comparative approach can be further refined by separating fundamental limitations arising from morphological or reproductive constraints from ecological pressures by investigating the less well-known foraging behaviour of juveniles and males. In this thesis I investigated inter-individual differences in foraging behaviour of three fur seal species, with a focus on adult males; Antarctic fur seals A. gazelle, Australian fur seals A. pusillus doriferus, and New Zealand fur seals A. forsteri. I tracked the foraging behaviour of individuals from large, established breeding colonies and haul-out sites with small populations at the joint range periphery of two species. Fur seals display a variety of foraging strategies (e.g. avoiding areas with high putative competition, focusing their search effort in areas of high biological production, partitioning niche space from congeneric species, high individual specialisation within benthic foraging species) that are consistent with foraging and niche theory, and that likely support intraspecific coexistence at large colonies and interspecific coexistence at range margins. Some important differences in foraging behaviour occur among individuals at a species range margin that distinguish them from individuals in the core of the species range. At this range periphery, the niche partitioning among males of sympatric fur seals offers insights into the processes driving foraging behaviour as species expand their range. Furthermore, an established network of protected areas could have useful management applications to mitigate negative interactions between humans and fur seals at their range periphery, and thereby support population expansion and recolonization of historical breeding areas. These insights provide direction for future research to support the conservation of fur seals and a more harmonious coexistence with humans.

description: The motion of a charged particle in a magnetic dipole has first been studied by Stormer. The different applications of Stormer's theory to aurorae, cosmic rays and Van Allen radiation belt particles are recalled in an historical perspective. In this paper, we expand the Stormer theory in order to take into account the effects produced by an additional uniform and stationary interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) whose orientation is parallel or antiparallel to the magnetic moment of the dipole. A new expression is derived for the Stormer potential taking into account the additional IMF component. It is shown how Stormer's allowed and forbidden zones are influenced by the implementation of a northward or a southward IMF, and how a southward turning of the IMF orientation makes it easier for Solar Energetic Particle and Galactic Cosmic Rays to enter into the inner part of the geomagnetic field along interconnected magnetic field lines.

Modeling left-truncated and right-censored survival data with longitudinal covariates

description: There is a surge in medical follow-up studies that include longitudinal covariates in the modeling of survival data. So far, the focus has been largely on right-censored survival data. We consider survival data that are subject to both left truncation and right censoring. Left truncation is well known to produce biased sample. The sampling bias issue has been resolved in the literature for the case which involves baseline or time-varying covariates that are observable. The problem remains open, however, for the important case where longitudinal covariates are present in survival models. A joint likelihood approach has been shown in the literature to provide an effective way to overcome those difficulties for right-censored data, but this approach faces substantial additional challenges in the presence of left truncation. Here we thus propose an alternative likelihood to overcome these difficulties and show that the regression coefficient in the survival component can be estimated unbiasedly and efficiently. Issues about the bias for the longitudinal component are discussed. The new approach is illustrated numerically through simulations and data from a multi-center AIDS cohort study.

description: Energy consumption and carbon emissions are expected to be crucial factors for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Both the scale and the geo-distribution keep increasing, while Artificial Intelligence (AI) further penetrates the "edge" in order to satisfy the need for highly-responsive and intelligent services. To date, several edge/fog emulators are catering for IoT testing by supporting the deployment and execution of AI-driven IoT services in consolidated test environments. These tools enable the configuration of infrastructures so that they closely resemble edge devices and IoT networks. However, energy consumption and carbon emissions estimations during the testing of AI services are still missing from the current state of IoT testing suites. This study highlights important questions that developers of AI-driven IoT services are in need of answers, along with a set of observations and challenges, aiming to help researchers designing IoT testing and benchmarking suites to cater to user needs.

description: The modeling of the emission and absorption spectra of hot dense plasmas out of local thermodynamic equilibrium requires accurate calculations of the cross-sections of the different radiative and collisional processes. In this work, we focus on the electron-impact ionization (EII). As the EII cross-section depends strongly on the ionization energy, and since this energy is very sensitive to the plasma environment, we need to account for plasma density effects such as the ionization potential depression (IPD). The IPD can be calculated by using the formulas of Stewart and Pyatt or Ecker and Kröll. A recent model, based on the classical molecular dynamics method, was developed at Aix-Marseille University. It simulates multi-component plasmas, and accounts for all the charge correlations, providing a distribution of ionization energies for each ion charge. This distribution is a result of the fluctuations of the environment. In this work, we compare calculated IPDs to experimental results obtained at LCLS (Stanford). Following a recent work, we discuss the distribution of the ionization energy in an aluminum plasma, and propose an alternative definition of the cross-section.

description: Most of the liquid-state theories, including glass-transition theories, are constructed on the basis of two-body density correlations. However, we have recently shown that many-body correlations, in particular bond orientational correlations, play a key role in both the glass transition and the crystallization transition. Here we show, with numerical simulations of supercooled polydisperse hard spheres systems, that the lengthscale associated with any two-point spatial correlation function does not increase toward the glass transition. A growing lengthscale is instead revealed by considering many-body correlation functions, such as correlators of orientational order, which follows the lengthscale of the dynamic heterogeneities. Despite the growing of crystal-like bond orientational order, we reveal that the stability against crystallization with increasing polydispersity is due to an increasing population of icosahedral arrangements of particles. Our results suggest that, for this type of systems, many-body correlations are a manifestation of the link between the vitrification and the crystallization phenomena. Whether a system is vitrified or crystallized can be controlled by the degree of frustration against crystallization, polydispersity in this case.

Suppression of Interactions in Multimode Random Lasers in the Anderson Localized Regime

Year: 2012

description: Understanding random lasing is a formidable theoretical challenge. Unlike conventional lasers, random lasers have no resonator to trap light, they are highly multimode with potentially strong modal interactions and they are based on disordered gain media, where photons undergo random multiple scattering. Interference effects notoriously modify the propagation of waves in such random media, but their fate in the presence of nonlinearity and interactions is poorly understood. Here, we present a semiclassical theory for multimode random lasing in the strongly scattering regime. We show that Anderson localization, a wave-interference effect, is not affected by the presence of nonlinearities. To the contrary, its presence suppresses interactions between simultaneously lasing modes. Using a recently constructed theory for complex multimode lasers, we show analytically how Anderson localization justifies a noninteracting, single-pole approximation. Consequently, lasing modes in a strongly scattering random laser are given by long-lived, Anderson localized modes of the passive cavity, whose frequency and wave profile does not vary with pumping, even in the multi-mode regime when mode overlap spatially.

After proving that the value process of the associated stochastic control problem has a quadratic structure, we characterize its three coefficient processes as solutions of semimartingale backward stochastic differential equations and show how they can be used to describe the optimal trading strategy for each conditional mean-variance hedging problem. For comparison with the existing literature, we provide alternative equivalent versions of the BSDEs and present a number of simple examples.

description: We consider that use of SAF is mainly a question of its availability and price. For engineers, it is a matter of sourcing primary energy involved in producing SAF- not to forget that SAF is only sustainable, if the CO2 is really taken out of the atmosphere in fuel production, which is intended to be put back into the atmosphere during flight. LH2 requires new (or modified) aircraft that are less efficient than conventional aircraft. Calculations show about 40% more fuel consumption (by energy) for LH2. This adds to the demand of LH2 for sourcing more primary energy. Batteries for electric flights suffer from their weight (as we already know). In addition, there are interesting aircraft design questions arising from issues such as: higher number of propellers and propeller integration into the airframe. It is explained, why hybrid electric or turbo electric solutions have clear disadvantages. There are also the non-CO2 effects. Here we shall consider flying lower with LH2 and also kerosene/SAF aircraft.

description: Recently, an interesting indication for a dark matter signal in the form of a narrow line, or maybe two lines and/or an internal bremsstrahlung feature, has been found in data from the Fermi-LAT satellite detector. As recent analyses have also shown that there is little sign of extra contributions to continuum photons, it is natural to investigate leptophilic interacting massive particle (LIMP) models. We show that a model of radiatively generated neutrino masses may have the properties needed to explain the Fermi-LAT structure around 130 GeV. This model was proposed some 10 years ago, and predicted a clearly observable $γ$-ray signal in the Fermi-LAT (then GLAST) detector. Here, we update and improve that analysis, and show as an example that a right-handed neutrino of mass 135 GeV should give rise to three conspicuous effects: a broad internal bremsstrahlung bump with maximum around 120 GeV, a 2$γ$ line around 135 GeV, and a $Zγ$ line at 119.6 GeV (neglected in the previous work). These features together give a good fit to the 130 GeV structure, given the present energy resolution of the Fermi-LAT data. An attractive feature of the model is that the particle physics properties are essentially fixed, when relic density and mass of the right-handed neutrino dark matter particle have been set. Puzzling features of the data at present are a slight displacement of the signal from the galactic center, and a needed boost factor of order 5-15. This presents a challenge for numerical simulations including both baryons and dark matter on scales of 100 pc, and perhaps a need to go beyond the simplest halo models. With upcoming data, the double-peak structure with the two lines and the internal bremsstrahlung feature should be seen, if this model is correct. With the satellite GAMMA-400, a striking fingerprint of this dark matter candidate should then appear.

description: A number of different classes of potentially extra-terrestrial bursts of radio emission have been observed in surveys with the Parkes 64m radio telescope, including "Rotating Radio Transients", the "Lorimer burst" and "perytons". Rotating Radio Transients are radio pulsars which are best detectable in single-pulse searches. The Lorimer burst is a highly dispersed isolated radio burst with properties suggestive of extragalactic origin. Perytons share the frequency-swept nature of the Rotating Radio Transients and Lorimer burst, but unlike these events appear in all thirteen beams of the Parkes Multibeam receiver and are probably a form of peculiar radio frequency interference. In order to constrain these and other radio source populations further, we searched the archival Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey data for events similar to any of these. We did not find any new Rotating Radio Transients or bursts like the Lorimer burst. We did, however, discover four peryton-like events. Similar to the perytons, these four bursts are highly dispersed, detected in all thirteen beams of the Parkes multibeam receiver, and have pulse widths between 20--30 ms. Unlike perytons, these bursts are not associated with atmospheric events like rain or lightning. These facts may indicate that lightning was not responsible for the peryton phenomenon. Moreover, the lack of highly dispersed celestial signals is the evidence that the Lorimer burst is unlikely to belong to a cosmological source population.

Preliminary studies find that female and darker-skinned NFTs are valued less than their male and lighter-skinned counterparts. However, these studies analyze only the CryptoPunks collection. We test the statistical significance of race and gender biases in the prices of CryptoPunks and present the first study of gender bias in the broader NFT market. We find evidence of racial bias but not gender bias. Our work also introduces a dataset of gender-labeled NFT collections to advance the broader study of social equity in this emerging market.

description: Since the 1980s, and particularly with the Hopfield model, recurrent neural networks or RNN became a topic of great interest. The first works of neural networks consisted of simple systems of a few neurons that were commonly simulated through analogue electronic circuits. The passage from the equations to the circuits was carried out directly without justification and subsequent formalisation. The present work shows a way to formally obtain the equivalence between an analogue circuit and a neural network and formalizes the connection between both systems. We also show which are the properties that these electrical networks must satisfy. We can have confidence that the representation in terms of circuits is mathematically equivalent to the equations that represent the network.

description: Using 3D hydrodynamic calculations we simulate formation of molecular clouds in the Galaxy. The simulations take into account molecular hydrogen chemical kinetics, cooling and heating processes. Comprehensive gravitational potential accounts for contributions from the stellar bulge, two and four armed spiral structure, stellar disk, dark halo and takes into account self-gravitation of the gaseous component. Gas clouds in our model form in the spiral arms due to shear and wiggle instabilities and turn into molecular clouds after $t\simgt 100$ Myr. At the times $t\sim 100 - 300$ Myr the clouds form hierarchical structures and agglomerations with the sizes of 100 pc and greater. We analyze physical properties of the simulated clouds and find that synthetic statistical distributions like mass spectrum, "mass-size" relation and velocity dispersion are close to those observed in the Galaxy. The synthetic $l-v$ (galactic longitude - radial velocity) diagram of the simulated molecular gas distribution resembles observed one and displays a structure with appearance similar to Molecular Ring of the Galaxy. Existence of this structure in our modelling can be explained by superposition of emission from the galactic bar and the spiral arms at $\sim$3-4 kpc.

title: Nāmarūpa; a Linguistic Perspective
Creators: name: Olalde, Liudmila

description: Nāmarūpa (literally “name and form”) is widely known as a Buddhist concept, relevant in the context of dependent origination (pratītyasamutpāda), and the skandhas. Yet, the compound is also found in the early Upaniṣads and a closer look at the Vedic corpus reveals that nāman and rūpa also appear closely related to each other in earlier texts. Generally, textual scholars explain nāmarūpa—both in Buddhist and non-Buddhist texts—as a designation of “individuality” or “empirical reality,” whereby nāman and rūpa tend to be regarded as counterparts. In this paper I consider the “non-Buddhist” use of the term from a linguistic perspective. Inspired on a 1987 article by Edward S. Small, I intend to explore to what extent modern theories on the linguistic sign—such as Saussure’s bipartite model of signifier and signified, and the triangle of reference of Ogden and Richards (1923)—may shed light on the relationship between nāman and rūpa and help us establish finer nuances in the meaning of the compound. The purpose of this analysis is to challenge tacit assumptions about language in recent interpretations of nāmarūpa and thus contribute to a better understanding of its usage in Buddhist texts prior to the systematization of the Abhidharma.

description: Die Zielsetzung dieser Arbeit lag in der Entwicklung und Anwendung von Methoden zur Untersuchung des Einflusses ionischer Flüssigkeiten (IL) auf die Katalysatorschichten einer PEMFC. Das in diesem Zuge entwickelte analytische Konzept ermöglicht durch geschickte Probennahme zum einen die Verteilung einer IL neben der des Ionomers auf der Längenskala der Katalysatorpartikel zu untersuchen. Zum anderen wird gleichzeitig eine Vergleichbarkeit mit Bulk-Charakterisierungsmethoden zur Textur- und Leistungsuntersuchung gewährleistet. Die Bulktextur wurde dabei mittels Sorptionsmethoden untersucht während die Mikrostruktur mittels STEM-EDS untersucht wurde. Diese Kombination ermöglicht neue Einblicke auf den Einfluss einer IL auf den Herstellungsprozess und spätere Leistung einer PEMFC Katalysatorschicht.

description: The environment, especially water, gets polluted due to industrialization and urbanization. Pollution due to industrialization and urbanization has harmful effects on both the environment and the lives on Earth. This polluted water can cause food poisoning, diarrhea, short-term gastrointestinal problems, respiratory diseases, skin problems, and other serious health complications. In a developing country like Bangladesh, where ready-made garments sector is one of the major sources of the total Gross Domestic Product (GDP), most of the wastes released from the garment factories are dumped into the nearest rivers or canals. Hence, the quality of the water of these bodies become very incompatible for the living beings, and so, it has become one of the major threats to the environment and human health. In addition, the amount of fish in the rivers and canals in Bangladesh is decreasing day by day as a result of water pollution. Therefore, to save fish and other water animals and the environment, we need to monitor the quality of the water and find out the reasons for the pollution. Real-time monitoring of the quality of water is vital for controlling water pollution. Most of the approaches for controlling water pollution are mainly biological and lab-based, which takes a lot of time and resources. To address this issue, we developed an Internet of Things (IoT)-based real-time water quality monitoring system, integrated with a mobile application. The proposed system in this research measures some of the most important indexes of water, including the potential of hydrogen (pH), total dissolved solids (TDS), and turbidity, and temperature of water. The proposed system results will be very helpful in saving the environment, and thus, improving the health of living creatures on Earth.

description: COVID19 and asthma are respiratory diseases that can be life threatening in uncontrolled circumstances and require continuous monitoring. A poverty stricken South Asian country like Bangladesh has been bearing the brunt of the COVID19 pandemic since its beginning. The majority of the country's population resides in rural areas, where proper healthcare is difficult to access. This emphasizes the necessity of telemedicine, implementing the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT), which is still under development in Bangladesh. This paper demonstrates how the current challenges in the healthcare system are resolvable through the design of a remote health and environment monitoring system, specifically for asthma patients who are at an increased risk of COVID19. Since on-time treatment is essential, this system will allow doctors and medical staff to receive patient information in real time and deliver their services immediately to the patient regardless of their location. The proposed system consists of various sensors collecting heart rate, body temperature, ambient temperature, humidity, and air quality data and processing them through the Arduino Microcontroller. It is integrated with a mobile application. All this data is sent to the mobile application via a Bluetooth module and updated every few seconds so that the medical staff can instantly track patients' conditions and emergencies. The developed prototype is portable and easily usable by anyone. The system has been applied to five people of different ages and medical histories over a particular period. Upon analyzing all their data, it became clear which participants were particularly vulnerable to health deterioration and needed constant observation. Through this research, awareness about asthmatic symptoms will improve and help prevent their severity through effective treatment anytime, anywhere.
