title: Cognitive mechanisms underlying body representation. A study on body metrics and body perception.
Creators: name: Caggiano, Pietro
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2023

description: Our body is an essential component of our sense of self; it is not just a means through which we passively experience the world, but we actively use it to act on and interact with the world around us. Because of such ‘intimate’ relationship, it is natural to assume a relatively accurate perception of its size and the relative proportion of its parts. Surprisingly, this seems not to be the case. A growing body of research indicates that the way we represent the size and proportion of our body is dramatically and systematically distorted. The present work is an attempt to understand from where these distortions may arise. Starting from the classic distinction between the body schema and the body image, the focus of this thesis is to investigate the potential interaction between these two components, which has often been implicitly assumed but rarely explicitly assessed. The results obtained, by means of implicit and explicit quantitative measures, highlighted a functional dimension of the body representation. Event-related potential technique has been implemented to evaluate the effect of the object-body part relationship on the modulation of N2-P3 complex in parieto-occipital areas. Electrophysiological data indicated that body parts, coded as effectors, intrinsically carry information about their functional role. Furthermore, by actively manipulating the ‘action’ component in a further study, findings indicated that modification in the body schema were reflected into the more conscious representation of the body image. Lastly, the study on patients with Personal Neglect (PN) showed that these patients represent the size of their contralesional hand, quantitatively and qualitatively, differently from patients without PN and healthy controls. The results provided further insight into the in impact of hemiplegia and personal neglect on the representation of the hands’ size, indicating that bottom-up and top-down processes can differentially impact on the body representation

description: Tent and Ziegler proved that the automorphism group of the Urysohn sphere is simple and that the automorphism group of the Urysohn space is simple modulo bounded automorphisms. A key component of their proof is the definition of a stationary independence relation (SIR). In this paper we prove that the existence of a SIR satisfying some extra axioms is enough to prove simplicity of the automorphism group of a countable structure. The extra axioms are chosen with applications in mind, namely homogeneous structures which admit a "metric-like amalgamation", for example all primitive 3-constrained metrically homogeneous graphs of finite diameter from Cherlin's list.

description: In this paper we obtain a new solution of Einstein field equations which describes a boosted Kerr-Newman black hole relative to a Lorentz frame at future null infinity. To simplify our analysis we consider a particular configuration in which the boost is aligned with the black hole angular momentum. The boosted Kerr-Newman black hole is obtained considering the complete asymptotic Lorentz transformations of Robinson-Trautman coordinates to Bondi-Sachs, including the perturbation term of the boosted Robinson-Trautman metric. To verify that the final form of the metric is indeed a solution of Einstein field equations, we evaluate the corresponding energy-momentum tensor the boosted Kerr-Newman solution. To this end, we consider the electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor built with the Kerr boosted metric together with its timelike killing vector. We show that the Papapetrou field thus obtained engender an energy-momentum tensor which satisfies Einstein field equations up to 4th order for the Kerr-Newman metric. To proceed, we examine the causal structure of the boosted Kerr-Newman black hole in Bondi-Sachs coordinates as in a preferred timelike foliation. We show that the ultimate effect of a nonvanishing charge is to shrink the overall size of the event horizon and ergosphere areas when compared to the neutral boosted Kerr black holes. Considering the preferred timelike foliation we obtain the electromagnetic fields for a proper nonrotating frame of reference. We show that while the electric field displays a pure radial behaviour, the magnetic counterpart develops an involved structure with two intense lobes of the magnetic field observed in the direction opposite to the boost.

description: Decades of research have described East Asian cultures as collectivistic, often characterized by ingroup relationships that are harmonious and cooperative. I propose an alternative account of East Asian Collectivism—the Harm-in-Harmony Theory. Specifically, I propose that East Asian culture can be better understood as a tension between high levels of cooperation and competition within groups. The co-existence of cooperation and competition drives competition covert. To cope with covert competition, people in East Asia develop a heightened threat-detection system—ingroup vigilance—a cognitive tendency to perceive ingroup members as hostile and threatening. The Harm-in-Harmony theory provides an alternative account for a number of cross-cultural differences (i.e., East Asians being more responsive and attentive to others) that have previously been explained through harmonious interdependence. This work contributes to a more balanced view of collectivism, revealing its interpersonal tensions in the forms of covert competition and ingroup vigilance.

 Emended description:— The frustules in valve view are round (Figs 1–3, 17–25), 8–31 µm in diameter. Most frustules in a girdle view are short straight cylinders, 2.2 – 7.0 μm in height (Figs 4–6, 8–16). The areolae are arranged on the mantle in straight single rows, 8 – 12 in 10 μm (Figs 8 – 16), with 3 – 7 areolae in each row (8 – 15 in 10 μm of a row). The areolae are rounded. The linking spines are triangular shape with slight bicuspidate ends (Figs 10, 16), or spatulate– shaped, broadened (Fig. 15). The separating spines are pointed (Figs 9, 11–14). The collar is structureless or thin ribbed at the edge (Figs 11, 12, 16).
The valve face has round areolae (Figs 1, 2, 17–20). They are located over the entire surface (Figs 17, 18), along the periphery in 1–3 rows of areolae (Figs 1, 2, 19, 20), or being completely absent (Figs 3, 21, 22). Sometimes the external valve face has granules at the centre (Figs 19, 20) or one ring of granules near the periphery (Figs 21, 22). The ringleiste is deep or narrow (Figs 22–37).
The complex-chambered alveolae and pseudoalveolae can be observed from the inside of the valves. The valves with alveolae are very rare (Fig. 26). More often, valves with pseudoalveolae are noted (Figs 27–30, 36). Sometimes, alveolae can be observed among pseudoalveolae on the same valve (Fig. 27). They are separated by longitudinal costae. Sometimes, there are no robust costae and pseudoalveolae, but there are longitudinal and transverse thickenings (Figs 31, 32). Figures 33, 35, and 37 display valves with micropseudoalveolae. The rimoportulae are very small, sessile, and located at the base of the costae (Figs 26–34, 36). The channel of rimoportulae is straight (Figs 30, 32, 36). The external openings of rimoportulae are small, round, and open in the first row of areola (Figs 10, 11, 13, 16).

REMARKS: The species is known from different localities on Masatierra; the unique female is characterized as follows. Cephalothorax as long as broad (0.40 mm / 0.40 mm); pedipalpal femur 4.3 times longer than broad (0.42 mm / 0.10 mm) and 2.0 times longer than patella, which is 1.8 times longer than broad (0.21 mm / 0.12 mm); hand 1.7 times longer than deep (0.27 mm / 0.16 mm), chela 4.0 times longer than deep (length 0.63 mm); finger 1.5 times (length 0.39 mm) longer than hand. Chelal fingers with about 36 low and partly indistinct teeth (their canals still visible in tooth lamella); apical seta of pedipalpal coxa simple, apex sinoid; coxa of leg I with a pointed anterior projection.
 Muchmore (1975) distinguished two groups in the genus Lechytia by the form of the apical seta on the pedipalpal coxa, which is either furcate (e.g. L. sini Muchmore, arborea Muchmore, chthoniiformis Balzan) or simple (e.g. L. hoffi Muchmore, L. kuscheli, and L. chilensis Beier).

description: Present and future high-precision tests of the Standard Model and beyond for the fundamental constituents and interactions in Nature are demanding complex perturbative calculations involving multi-leg and multi-loop Feynman diagrams. Currently, large effort is devoted to the search for closed expressions of loop integrals, written whenever possible in terms of known - often hypergeometric-type - functions. In this work, the scalar three-point function is re-evaluated by means of generalized hypergeometric functions of two variables. Finally, use is made of the connection between such Appell functions and dilogarithms coming from a previous investigation, to recover well-known results.

description: Thuricin CD is a two-peptide antimicrobial produced by Bacillus thuringiensis. Unlike previous antibiotics, it has shown narrow spectrum activity against Clostridioides difficile, a bacterium capable of causing infectious disease in the colon. However, peptide antibiotics have stability, solubility, and permeability problems that can affect their performance in vivo. This work focuses on the bioactivity and bioavailability of thuricin CD with a view to developing a formulation for delivery of active thuricin CD peptides through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) for local delivery in the colon. The results indicate that thuricin CD is active at low concentrations only when both peptides are present. While thuricin CD was degraded by proteases and was unstable and poorly soluble in gastric fluid, it showed increased solubility in intestinal fluid, probably due to micelle encapsulation. Based on this, thuricin CD was encapsulated in anionic liposomes, which showed increased activity compared to the free peptide, maintained activity after exposure to pepsin in gastric fluid and intestinal fluid, was stable in suspension for over 21 days at room temperature and for 60 days at 4 ◦C, and exhibited no toxicity to epithelial intestinal cells. These findings suggest that an anionic lipid-based nano formulation may be a promising approach for local oral delivery of thuricin CD.

description: The first two Hamiltonian structures and the recursion operator connecting all evolution systems and Hamiltonian structures of the N=2 supersymmetric (n,m)-GNLS hierarchy are constructed in terms of N=2 superfields in two different superfield bases with local evolution equations. Their bosonic limits are studied in detail. New local and nonlocal bosonic and fermionic integrals both for the N=2 supersymmetric (n,m)-GNLS hierarchy and its bosonic counterparts are derived. As an example, in the n=1, m=1 case, the algebra and the symmetry transformations for some of them are worked out and a rich N=4 supersymmetry structure is uncovered.

description: Understanding and interpreting the decisions made by deep learning models is valuable in many domains. In computer vision, computing heatmaps from a deep network is a popular approach for visualizing and understanding deep networks. However, heatmaps that do not correlate with the network may mislead human, hence the performance of heatmaps in providing a faithful explanation to the underlying deep network is crucial. In this paper, we propose I-GOS, which optimizes for a heatmap so that the classification scores on the masked image would maximally decrease. The main novelty of the approach is to compute descent directions based on the integrated gradients instead of the normal gradient, which avoids local optima and speeds up convergence. Compared with previous approaches, our method can flexibly compute heatmaps at any resolution for different user needs. Extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets show that the heatmaps produced by our approach are more correlated with the decision of the underlying deep network, in comparison with other state-of-the-art approaches.
Development of guidelines for operation and moniroting of mine dumps

Year: 2009

description: Mine dumps being developed in British Columbia are some of the world’s largest man-made structures. A number of recent failures of these dumps has prompted the British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, in conjunction with other funding agencies, to commission a series of guidelines and studies to improve the safety and understanding of mine dumps. Klohn Leonoff Ltd. Prepared the Interim Guidelines for Operation and Monitoring of Mine Dumps. These Interim Guidelines developed operation, monitoring, safety, inspection and reporting criteria for operation dumps. Procedures for mine closure are presented along with monitoring and maintenance requirements for completed dumps. The responsibility for personnel involved with mine dump operations is defined. An empirical procedure is proposed for setting the maximum rate of dump crest advance. Standard forms are introduced for Mine Dump Inspections and for Failure Reporting.

description: We classify integrable irreducible highest weight representations of non-twisted affine Lie superalgebras. We give a free field construction in the level~1 case. The analysis of this construction shows, in particular, that in the simplest case of the $s\ell (2|1)$ level~1 affine superalgebra the characters are expressed in terms of the Appell elliptic function. Our results demonstrate that the representation theory of affine Lie superalgebras is quite different from that of affine Lie algebras.

description: Hyperspectral images (HSI) provide rich spectral information that contributed to the successful performance improvement of numerous computer vision tasks. However, it can only be achieved at the expense of images' spatial resolution. Hyperspectral image super-resolution (HSI-SR) addresses this problem by fusing low resolution (LR) HSI with multispectral image (MSI) carrying much higher spatial resolution (HR). All existing HSI-SR approaches require the LR HSI and HR MSI to be well registered and the reconstruction accuracy of the HR HSI relies heavily on the registration accuracy of different modalities. This paper exploits the uncharted problem domain of HSI-SR without the requirement of multi-modality registration. Given the unregistered LR HSI and HR MSI with overlapped regions, we design a unique unsupervised learning structure linking the two unregistered modalities by projecting them into the same statistical space through the same encoder. The mutual information (MI) is further adopted to capture the non-linear statistical dependencies between the representations from two modalities (carrying spatial information) and their raw inputs. By maximizing the MI, spatial correlations between different modalities can be well characterized to further reduce the spectral distortion. A collaborative $l_{2,1}$ norm is employed as the reconstruction error instead of the more common $l_2$ norm, so that individual pixels can be recovered as accurately as possible. With this design, the network allows to extract correlated spectral and spatial information from unregistered images that better preserves the spectral information. The proposed method is referred to as unregistered and unsupervised mutual Dirichlet Net ($u^2$-MDN). Extensive experimental results using benchmark HSI datasets demonstrate the superior performance of $u^2$-MDN as compared to the state-of-the-art.

description: We develop a geometric representation for the ground state of the spin-1/2 quantum XXZ ferromagnetic chain in terms of suitably weighted random walks in a two-dimensional lattice. The path integral model so obtained admits a genuine classical statistical mechanics interpretation with a translation invariant Hamiltonian. This new representation is used to study the interface ground states of the XXZ model. We prove that the probability of having a number of down spins in the up phase decays exponentially with the sum of their distances to the interface plus the square of the number of down spins. As an application of this bound, we prove that the total third component of the spin in a large interval of even length centered on the interface does not fluctuate, i.e., has zero variance. We also show how to construct a path integral representation in higher dimensions and obtain a reduction formula for the partition functions in two dimensions in terms of the partition function of the one-dimensional model.

description: Synchronization of spatiotemporally chaotic extended systems is considered in the context of coupled one-dimensional Complex Ginzburg-Landau equations (CGLE). A regime of coupled spatiotemporal intermittency (STI) is identified and described in terms of the space-time synchronized chaotic motion of localized structures. A quantitative measure of synchronization as a function of coupling parameter is given through distribution functions and information measures. The coupled STI regime is shown to dissapear into regular dynamics for situations of strong coupling, hence a description in terms of a single CGLE is not appropiate.

description: We analyse the general structure of the three-point functions involving conserved higher-spin ``vector-like" supercurrents $J_{s}(z) := J_{α(s) \dotα(s)}(z)$ in four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theory. Using the constraints of superconformal symmetry and superfield conservation equations, we utilise a computational approach to analyse the general structure of the three-point function $\langle J^{}_{s_{1}}(z_{1}) \, J'_{s_{2}}(z_{2}) \, J''_{s_{3}}(z_{3}) \rangle$ and provide a general classification of the results. We demonstrate that the three-point function is fixed up to $2 \min (s_{i}) + 2$ independent conserved structures, which we propose to hold for arbitrary superspins. In addition, we show that the conserved structures can be classified as parity-even or parity-odd in superspace based on their transformation properties under superinversion.

The method uses local smoothing on the refined part of the mesh. Partitioning is achieved by using a space filling curve for the leaf mesh and distributing ancestors in the hierarchy based on the leaves. We present a model of the efficiency of mesh hierarchy distribution and compare its predictions to runtime measurements. The algorithm is implemented as part of the deal.II finite element library and as such available to the public.
Modal Expansions and Orthogonal Complements in the Theory of Complex Media Waveguide Excitation by External Sources for Isotropic, Anisotropic, and Bianisotropic Media

description: A unified electrodynamic approach to the guided wave excitation by external sources in the waveguiding structures with bianisotropic media is developed. Effect of electric, magnetic, and magneto- electric losses in such media manifests itself in the special form of eigenmode orthogonality referred to as the quasi-orthogonality relation. It reflects the existence of the cross-power flow and for any pair of modes which are rigidly linked to each other by this relation. The quasi-orthogonality relation remains true in the limiting case of lossless waveguides yielding the customary relations of orthogonality and normalization for propagating (active) modes and also their generalization for nonpropagating (reactive) modes. It is shown that the eigenmode set for a waveguiding structure is complete only outside the region of exciting sources. Inside this region the modal expansions of fields are incomplete and must be supplemented with the orthogonal complementary fields which extend the proper Hilbert space spanned by waveguide eigenfunctions. Among exciting sources there are the external bulk sources (currents, fields, and medium perturbations) and the external surface currents. Besides, the orthogonal complementary fields generate the effective surface currents on boundaries of the bulk exciting sources. The problem of waveguide excitation by external sources is solved by means of determining both the mode amplitudes for the modal field expansions and the orthogonal complementary fields inside the source region. The equations of mode excitation are derived on the basis of three approaches applying the direct use of Maxwell's equations, the electrodynamic analogy with the mathematical method of variation of constants, and the conjugate reciprocity theorem.

FitzGerald's Rubáiyát: A Victorian Invention
Creators: name: Zare-Behtash, Esmail
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1994
Subjects: Edward FitzGerald • Rubaiyat • Omar Khayyam • Victorian • Persian • poetry • English literature

description: This study was written in the belief that FitzGerald did not so much translate a poem as invent a persona based on the Persian astronomer and mathematician (but not poet) Omar Khayyám. This 'invention' opened two different lines of interpretation and scholarship, each forming its own idea of a 'real' Omar based on FitzGerald's invention. One line sees Omar as a hedonist and nihilist; the other as a mystic or Sufi. My argument first is that the historical Omar was neither the former nor the latter; second, FitzGerald's Rubáiyát is a 'Victorian' product even if the raw material of the poem belongs to the eleventh-century Persia. The Introduction tries to find a place for the Rubáiyát in the English nineteenth-century era.

description: The expansion of technostress research in the organisational and private IS usage contexts has generated substantial theoretical and empirical insights into the relationship between technostress creators and psychological and behavioural outcomes. However, we observe empirical inconsistencies in terms of effect sizes and conceptual inconsistencies regarding the aggregated and disaggregated treatment of technostress creators. Against this background, we argue that a fine-grained estimation and comparison of effect size strengths of technostress creators on outcomes can provide clarity on these essential matters. Using the Hunter and Schmidt method, we integrated and synthesised empirical data from 102 articles, encompassing 113 independent studies with a total of 49,955 observations. Our analysis offers four important contributions to the technostress literature. First, it confirms that technostress is meaningful in terms of its detrimental impact on both psychological and behavioural outcomes. Second, the results provide accurate effect size estimates for technostress creators on different outcomes in organisational and private usage contexts. Third, the results reveal that psychological outcomes are more immediate than behavioural outcomes. Fourth, the findings suggest that in certain contexts, a disaggregated account of technostress creators can reveal meaningful empirical information.

description: Small and medium enterprise (SME) digitalisation involves the reinforcement, modification, and renewal of business models with the help of digital technologies. It is widely considered imperative for SMEs to stay relevant in the digital age. Yet, little is known about the conditions under which SME digitalisation improves the performance of SMEs in the IS literature. Guided by the SME literature, we postulate that the business value of SME digitalisation – based on its impact on improving financial firm performance – is dependent on two factors that are particularly relevant to SMEs due to their smallness and flexibility: radical orientation and organisational rigidity. Using data from multiple waves of surveys in 2019–2020 and archival financial data from Dutch SMEs, we demonstrate that the positive impact of SME digitalisation on performance improvement strongly depends on SME characteristics. SMEs who are oriented towards radical change and are more rigid are disadvantaged and attain lower returns on SME digitalisation.

description: Sustainability commonly refers to entities, such as individuals, companies, and institutions, having a non-detrimental (or even positive) impact on the environment, society, and the economy. With sustainability becoming a synonym of acceptable and legitimate behaviour, it is being increasingly demanded and regulated. Several frameworks and standards have been proposed to measure the sustainability impact of corporations, including United Nations' sustainable development goals and the recently introduced global sustainability reporting framework, amongst others. However, the concept of corporate sustainability is complex due to the diverse and intricate nature of firm operations (i.e. geography, size, business activities, interlinks with other stakeholders). As a result, corporate sustainability assessments are plagued by subjectivity both within data that reflect corporate sustainability efforts (i.e. corporate sustainability disclosures) and the analysts evaluating them. This subjectivity can be distilled into distinct challenges, such as incompleteness, ambiguity, unreliability and sophistication on the data dimension, as well as limited resources and potential bias on the analyst dimension. Put together, subjectivity hinders effective cost attribution to entities non-compliant with prevailing sustainability expectations, potentially rendering sustainability efforts and its associated regulations futile. To this end, we argue that Explainable Natural Language Processing (XNLP) can significantly enhance corporate sustainability analysis. Specifically, linguistic understanding algorithms (lexical, semantic, syntactic), integrated with XAI capabilities (interpretability, explainability, faithfulness), can bridge gaps in analyst resources and mitigate subjectivity problems within data.

description: We investigate an optimal investment problem with a general performance criterion which, in particular, includes discontinuous functions. Prices are modeled as diffusions and the market is incomplete. We find an explicit solution for the case of limited diversification of the portfolio, i.e. for the portfolio compression problem. By this we mean that an admissible strategies may include no more than m different stocks concurrently, where m may be less than the total number n of available stocks.

title: Investigating Assessors’ Scoring and Reasoning of Safety-Critical Crew Performance and Collaboration
Creators: name: Weber, David E
Publisher: name: Griffith University

Subjects: subject: Pilot assessment
subject: Airline professionals assessment
subject: Assessment models

description: The use of an assessment model has shown large variation (disagreement) in the scoring of airline professionals who judged the performance of a captain and first officer in multiple video scenarios. A better understanding was thus required of the source of assessors’ disagreement in terms of both the scoring and reasoning of safety-critical crew performance and collaboration. In the first study, the present thesis quantitatively compared the scoring and assessment time of airline professionals (first officers, captains, and flight examiners) from two different airlines who were given versus not given an assessment model to judge performance. The demographics of the participants were compared in terms of their age, total flight hours, and years flown as commercial pilot. In contrast, the second and third studies qualitatively investigated and analysed assessors’ reasoning further. The second study closely examined the reasoning of captain assessor pairs who assessed the performance of a captain in two video scenarios. Individually for each assessor pair and pilot assessed, this study contrasted the reasoning of the assessors against the scores they provided to the pilot assessed. The third study looked into the reasoning of flight examiner assessor pairs who judged a captain and first officer performing in an engine fire scenario. It was examined whether commonly used assessment categories (e.g., Situational Awareness, Management) are specific, in the sense that assessors build their assessments on the same observations and reasoning (justifications). Furthermore, it was questioned what might distinguish the sort of observations that are specific to a single assessment category from observations that are stated in multiple categories.
