description: Using the parent Lagrangian approach we construct a dual formulation, in the sense originally proposed by Curtright and Freund, of a massive spin two Fierz-Pauli theory in arbitrary dimensions $D$. This is achieved in terms of a mixed symmetry tensor $T_{A[B_{1}B_{2}... B_{D-2}]}$, without the need of auxiliary fields. The relation of this method with an alternative formulation based on a gauge symmetry principle proposed by Zinoviev is elucidated. We show that the latter formulation in four dimensions, with a given gauge fixing together with a definite sequence of auxiliary fields elimination via their equations of motion, leads to the parent Lagrangian already considered by West completed by a Fierz-Pauli mass term, which in turns yields the Curtright-Freund action. This motivates our generalization to arbitrary dimensions leading to the corresponding extension of the four dimensional result. We identify the transverse true degrees of freedom of the dual theory and verify that their number is in accordance with those of the massive Fierz-Pauli field.

description: The multi-agent path finding (MAPF) problem is a combinatorial search problem that aims at finding paths for multiple agents (e.g., robots) in an environment (e.g., an autonomous warehouse) such that no two agents collide with each other, and subject to some constraints on the lengths of paths. The real-world applications of MAPF require flexibility (e.g., solving variations of MAPF) as well as explainability. In this study, both of these challenges are addressed and some flexible and explainable solutions for MAPF and its variants are introduced.

description: To elucidate the key factor for the quantitative prediction of the shear-thickening in suspensions in viscoelastic fluids, direct numerical simulations of many-particle suspensions in a multi-mode Oldroyd-B fluid are performed using the smoothed profile method. Suspension flow under simple shear flow is solved under periodic boundary conditions by using Lees--Edwards boundary conditions for particle dynamics and a time-dependent oblique coordinate system that evolves with mean shear flow for fluid dynamics. Semi-dilute many-particle suspensions up to a particle volume fraction of 0.1 are investigated. The presented numerical results regarding the bulk rheological properties of the shear-thickening behavior agree quantitatively with recent experimental results of semi-dilute suspensions in a Boger fluid. The presented result clarifies that an accurate estimation of the first normal stress difference of the matrix in the shear-rate range where the shear-thickening starts to occur is crucial for the quantitative prediction of the suspension shear-thickening in a Boger fluid matrix at around the Weissenberg number $\rm{Wi}=1$ by an Oldroyd-B model. Additionally, the effect of suspension microstructures on the suspension viscosity is examined. The paper concludes with a discussion on how the flow pattern and the elastic stress development change with the volume fraction and Weissenberg number.

Hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, hyperaldosteronism: a genetic perspective for personalized therapy.

Subjects: BIO/14 Farmacologia

description: Essential, primary, or idiopathic hypertension is defined as high BP in which secondary causes such as renovascular disease, renal failure, pheochromocytoma, hyperaldosteronism, or other causes of secondary hypertension are not present. Essential hypertension accounts for 80-90% of all cases of hypertension; it is a heterogeneous disorder, with different patients having different causal factors that may lead to high BP. Life-style, diet, race, physical activity, smoke, cultural level, environmental factors, age, sex and genetic characteristics play a key role in the increasing risk. 
Conversely to the essential hypertension, secondary hypertension is often associated with the presence of other pathological conditions such as dyslipidaemia, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus, obesity and primary aldosteronism. Amongst them, primary aldosteronism represents one of the most common cause of secondary hypertension, with a prevalence of 5-15% depending on the severity of blood pressure. Besides high blood pressure values, a principal feature of primary aldosteronism is the hypersecretion of mineralcorticoid hormone, aldosterone, in a manner that is fairly autonomous of the renin-angiotensin system. Primary aldosteronism is a heterogeneous pathology that may be divided essentially in two groups, idiopathic and familial form. 
Despite all this knowledge, there are so many hypertensive cases that cannot be explained. These individuals apparently seem to be healthy, but they have a great risk to develop CVD. The lack of known risk factors makes difficult their classification in a scale of risk. Over the last three decades a good help has been given by the pharmacogenetics/pharmacogenomics, a new area of the traditional pharmacology that try to explain and find correlations between genetic variation, (rare variations, SNPs, mutations), and the risk to develop a particular disease.

description: Experimental results have shown that the kinetics of bond formation in chemical crosslinking of gelatin solutions is strongly affected not only by gelatin and reactant concentrations but also by the solution pH. We present an extended numerical investigation of the phase diagram and of the kinetics of bond formation as a function of the pH, via Monte Carlo simulations of a lattice model for gelatin chains and reactant agent in solution. We find a reentrant phase diagram, namely gelation can be hindered either by loop formation, at low reactant concentrations, or by saturation of active sites of the chains via formation of single bonds with crosslinkers, at high reactant concentrations. The ratio of the characteristic times for the formation of the first and of the second bond between the crosslinker and an active site of a chain is found to depend on the reactant reactivity, in good agreement with experimental data.

Comprehensive Multi-Agent Epistemic Planning

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Over the last few years, the concept of Artificial Intelligence has become central in different tasks concerning both our daily life and several working scenarios. Among these tasks automated planning has always been central in the AI research community. In particular, this manuscript is focused on a specialized kind of planning known as Multi-agent Epistemic Planning (MEP). Epistemic Planning (EP) refers to an automated planning setting where the agent reasons in the space of knowledge/beliefs states and tries to find a plan to reach a desirable state from a starting one. Its general form, the MEP problem, involves multiple agents who need to reason about both the state of the world and the information flows between agents. To tackle the MEP problem several tools have been developed and, while the diversity of approaches has led to a deeper understanding of the problem space, each proposed tool lacks some abilities and does not allow for a comprehensive investigation of the information flows. That is why, the objective of our work is to formalize an environment where a complete characterization of the agents' knowledge/beliefs interaction and update is possible. In particular, we aim to achieve such goal by defining a new action-based language for multi-agent epistemic planning and to implement an epistemic planner based on it. This solver should provide a tool flexible enough to reason on different domains, e.g., economy, security, justice and politics, where considering others' knowledge/beliefs could lead to winning strategies.

Learning with Kernels on Graphs: DAG-based kernels, data streams and RNA function prediction.

Publisher: name: Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna
Year: 2014
Subjects: INF/01 Informatica

description: In many application domains data can be naturally represented as graphs.
When the application of analytical solutions for a given problem is unfeasible, machine learning techniques could be a viable way to solve the problem. Classical machine learning techniques are defined for data represented in a vectorial form. Recently some of them have been extended to deal directly with structured data. Among those techniques, kernel methods have shown promising results both from the computational complexity and the predictive performance point of view. Kernel methods allow to avoid an explicit mapping in a vectorial form relying on kernel functions, which informally are functions calculating a similarity measure between two entities. However, the definition of good kernels for graphs is a challenging problem because of the difficulty to find a good tradeoff between computational complexity and expressiveness. Another problem we face is learning on data streams, where a potentially unbounded sequence of data is generated by some sources.

There are three main contributions in this thesis.
The first contribution is the definition of a new family of kernels for graphs based on Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs). We analyzed two kernels from this family, achieving state-of-the-art results from both the computational and the classification point of view on real-world datasets.
The second contribution consists in making the application of learning algorithms for streams of graphs feasible. Moreover,we defined a principled way for the memory management.
The third contribution is the application of machine learning techniques for structured data to non-coding RNA function prediction. In this setting, the secondary structure is thought to carry relevant information. However, existing methods considering the secondary structure have prohibitively high computational complexity. We propose to apply kernel methods on this domain, obtaining state-of-the-art results.

description: Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are one of the utterly popular sources for providing globally referenced positioning for autonomous systems. However, the performance of the GNSS positioning is significantly challenged in urban canyons, due to the signal reflection and blockage from buildings. Given the fact that the GNSS measurements are highly environmentally dependent and time-correlated, the conventional filtering-based method for GNSS positioning cannot simultaneously explore the time-correlation among historical measurements. As a result, the filtering-based estimator is sensitive to unexpected outlier measurements. In this paper, we present a factor graph-based formulation for GNSS positioning and real-time kinematic (RTK). The formulated factor graph framework effectively explores the time-correlation of pseudorange, carrier-phase, and doppler measurements, and leads to the non-minimal state estimation of the GNSS receiver. The feasibility of the proposed method is evaluated using datasets collected in challenging urban canyons of Hong Kong and significantly improved positioning accuracy is obtained, compared with the filtering-based estimator.

description: We study ground state properties of periodic Anderson model in a two-dimensional square lattice with variational Monte Carlo method. It is shown that there are two different types of quantum phase transition: a conventional antiferromagnetic transition and a Fermi-surface reconstruction which accompanies a change of topology of the Fermi surface. The former is induced by a simple back-folding of the Fermi surface while the latter is induced by localization of $f$ electrons. The mechanism of these transitions and the relation to the recent experiments on Fermi surface are discussed in detail.

description: CONTEXT: Accurate mass, radius, and abundance determinations from binaries provide important information on stellar evolution, fundamental to central fields in modern astrophysics and cosmology. AIMS: Within the long-term Copenhagen Binary Project, we aim to obtain high-quality light curves and standard photometry for double-lined detached eclipsing binaries with late A, F, and G type main-sequence components, needed for the determination of accurate absolute dimensions and abundances, and for detailed comparisons with results from recent stellar evolutionary models. METHODS: Between March 1985 and July 2007, we carried out photometric observations of AD Boo, HW CMA, SW CMa, V636 Cen, VZ Hya, and WZ Oph at the Str"omgren Automatic Telescope at ESO, La Silla. RESULTS: We obtained complete uvby light curves, ephemerides, and standard uvbyβindices for all six systems.For V636 Cen and HW CMa, we present the first modern light curves, whereas for AD Boo, SW CMa, VZ Hya, and WZ Oph, they are both more accurate and more complete than earlier data. Due to a high orbital eccentricity (e = 0.50), combined with a low orbital inclination (i = 84.7), only one eclipse, close to periastron, occurs for HW CMa. For the two other eccentric systems, V636 Cen (e = 0.134) and SW CMa (e = 0.316), apsidal motion has been detected with periods of 5270 +/- 335 and 14900 +/- 3600 years, respectively.

Compilation of Aggregates in ASP

description: Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a well-known problem-solving formalism in computational logic. Nowadays, ASP is used in many real world scenarios thanks to ASP solvers. Standard evaluation of ASP programs suffers from an intrinsic limitation, knows as Grounding Bottleneck, due to the grounding of some rules that could fit all the available memory. As a result, there exist instances of real world problems that are untractable using the standard Ground and Solve approach. In order to tackle this problem, different strategies have been proposed. Among them we focus on a recent approach based on compilation of problematic constraints as propagators, which revealed to be very promising but is currently limited to constraints without aggregates. Since aggregates are widely used in ASP, in this paper we extend such an approach also to constraints containing aggregates. Good results, that proof the effectiveness of the proposed approach, have been reached.

description: We analyse absorption characteristics and physical conditions of extraplanar intermediate- and high-velocity gas to study the distribution of the neutral and weakly ionised Milky Way halo gas and its relevance for the evolution of the Milky Way and other spiral galaxies. We combine optical absorption line measurements of CaII/NaI and 21 cm emission line observations of HI along 103 extragalactic lines of sight towards quasars (QSOs) and active galactic nuclei (AGN). The archival optical spectra were obtained with UVES at the ESO VLT, while the 21 cm HI observations were carried out using the 100-m radio telescope at Effelsberg. The analysis of the UVES spectra shows that single and multi-component CaII/NaI absorbers at intermediate and high velocities are present in about 35% of the sight lines, indicating the presence of neutral extraplanar gas structures. In some cases the CaII/NaI absorption is connected with HI intermediate- or high-velocity gas, while other absorbers show no associated HI emission. Our study suggests that the Milky Way halo is filled with a large number of neutral gaseous structures whose high column density tail represents the population of common HI high-velocity clouds seen in 21 cm surveys. The CaII column density distribution follows a power-law which is comparable to the distribution found for intervening metal-line systems toward QSOs. Many of the statistical and physical properties of the CaII absorbers resemble those of strong MgII absorbing systems observed in the circumgalactic environment of other galaxies, suggesting that both absorber populations may be closely related.

description: We develop a theory of circular photogalvanic effect in non-gyrotropic two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers under interband optical transitions. Oblique incidence of circularly-polarized electromagnetic field or normal incidence of elliptically polarized electromagnetic field is assumed. In contrast to the linear-in-intensity conventional photogalvanic effect, the effect considered here arises in the second intensity order. The effect is conditioned by i) the predominant population of the valleys by the circular in-plane electromagnetic field component and ii) the direct drift of the photo-excited carriers by the linear-polarized in-plane electromagnetic field component in the presence of trigonal valley asymmetry.

Modification of the incidence of surface damage symptoms in sweet cherries by pre- and postharvest treatments
Creators: name: Lidster, Perry David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The prevention of storage disorders in sweet cherries resulting from mechanical damage was investigated. Pre- and post-harvest treatments were applied to modify fruit texture, fruit composition and fruit desiccation in storage. The effects of the treatments applied were related to fruit susceptibility to the incidence of fruit bruises, surface markings and surface pitting. The application of calcium in the form of pre-harvest sprays or post-harvest dips decreased mechanical damage expression. Warm fruit was less susceptible to mechanical injury than cold fruit early in the storage period but fruit temperature had little effect after 8 days of cold storage. Similarly, high storage temperatures enhanced pitting development early in the storage life but storage temperatures had negligible effect after 8 days. A delay in 0℃ storage prior to bruising greatly reduced the susceptibility of cherries to mechanical injury. Fruit was most resistant to mechanical damage after 8 days in 0°C. The development of fruit symptoms in response to impact was enhanced by rough surfaces. Slowly applied compressive forces resulted in low incidences of injury symptoms. Fruit firmness and bioyield values were increased with mesocarp calcium from preharvest sprays and post-harvest dips, but did not show consistent relationships to the susceptibility of fruit to mechanical damage. Weight loss enhanced by low relative humidity increased the rate of development of damage but did not influence the total damage incidence. Soaking fruit in water or fungicide solution increased damage expression in storage. Less mature and intermediate maturity fruit were more susceptible to mechanical injury than were the most mature fruit. Fruit with relatively high alcohol insoluble solids content associated with pre-harvest gibberellic acid sprays or advanced maturity fruit had reduced susceptibility to mechanical damage. Large fruit was less susceptible to mechanical damage and had higher alcohol insoluble solids content than did small fruit. High levels of fruit nitrogen were associated with high susceptibility to mechanical damage. A great many factors were found to modify fruit susceptibility to surface disorders resulting from mechanical damage. This provides a great flexibility to producers and marketing agents to minimize fruit losses due to the effects of rough handling.

description: We present results of a search for a young stellar moving group associated with the star HD 141569, a nearby, isolated Herbig AeBe primary member of a 5+/-3 Myr-old triple star system on the outskirts of the Sco-Cen complex. Our spectroscopic survey identified a population of 21 Li-rich, <30 Myr-old stars within 30 degrees of HD 141569 which possess similar proper motions with the star. The spatial distribution of these Li-rich stars, however, is not suggestive of a moving group associated with the HD 141569 triplet, but rather this sample appears cospatial with Upper Scorpius and Upper Centaurus Lupus. We apply a modified moving cluster parallax method to compare the kinematics of these youthful stars with Upper Scorpius and Upper Centaurus Lupus. Eight new potential members of Upper Scorpius and five new potential members of Upper Centaurus Lupus are identified. A substantial moving group with an identifiable nucleus within 15 degrees (~30 pc) of HD 141569 is not found in this sample. Evidently, the HD 141569 system formed ~5 Myr ago in relative isolation, tens of parsecs away from the recent sites of star formation in the Ophiucus-Scorpius-Centaurus region.

We consider as well the scalar field self-couplings in the general case where the non chiral 6D supergravity multiplet is coupled to generic n vector supermultiplets with moduli space $SO(1,1) \times \frac{SO(4,n)}{SO(4) \times SO(n)}$. We also work out a dictionary giving a correspondence between hyperKahler geometry and the Kahler geometry of the Coulomb branch of 10D type IIA on Calabi-Yau threefolds. Others features are also discussed.

description: In this paper, I will discuss the work I am currently doing as a Ph.D. student at the University of Potsdam, under the tutoring of T. Schaub. I'm currently looking into action description in ASP. More precisely, my goal is to explore how to represent actions with durations in ASP, in different contexts. Right now, I'm focused on Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF), looking at how to represent speeds for different agents and contexts. Before tackling duration, I wanted to explore and compare different representations of action taking in ASP. For this, I started comparing different simple encodings tackling the MAPF problem. Even in simple code, choices and assumptions have been made in their creations. The objective of my work is to present the consequences of those design decisions in terms of performance and knowledge representation. As far as I know, there is no current research on this topic. Besides that, I'm also exploring different ways to represent duration and to solve related problems. I planed to compare them the same way I described before. I also want this to help me find innovative and effective ways to solve problems with duration.

description: We present an analysis of infrared (IR) echelle spectra of five stars in the TW Hydrae Association (TWA). We model the Zeeman broadening in four magnetic-sensitive \ion{Ti}{1} lines near $2.2 μ$m and measure the value of the photospheric magnetic field averaged over the surface of each star. To ensure that other broadening mechanisms are properly taken into account, we also inspect several magnetically insensitive CO lines near $2.3 μ$m and find no excess broadening above that produced by stellar rotation and instrumental broadening, providing confidence in the magnetic interpretation of the width of the \ion{Ti}{1} lines. We then utilize our results to test the relationship between stellar magnetic flux and X-ray properties and compare the measured fields with equipartition field values. Finally, we use our results and recent results on a large sample of stars in Taurus to discuss the potential evolution of magnetic field properties between the age of Taurus ($\sim$2 Myrs) and the age of TWA ($\sim$10 Myrs). We find that the average stellar field strength increases with age; however, the total unsigned magnetic flux decreases as the stars contract onto the main-sequence.

description: Objective: To evaluate the Québec Audiological Assessment Protocol for Younger and Older Adults (QAAP-YOA) and its accompanying clinical tool efficacy to assess the needs of individuals with hearing loss in a simulated context. This study is the Phase 2 in the development of the QAAP-YOA. Design: Participants completed two needs assessments with simulated clients and wrote audiological reports, while applying the QAAP-YOA with and without the use of its clinical tool. Interviews were filmed, and reports collected. Both were scored by two independent evaluators. A qualitative analysis of reports was also conducted. Study sample: Eleven audiology students and four early-career audiologists (n = 15). Results: The clinical tool did not influence the interview process since both experimental conditions had similar compliance rates to the protocol (p = 0.114). Compliance rates for assessment reports were higher with the clinical tool (p < 0.001). Participants’ conclusions after applying the QAAP-YOA were consistent across participants. The information provided in the reports was more comprehensive and coherent with the client’s needs when participants used the clinical tool. Conclusions: The QAAP-YOA can lead to a greater standardisation of needs assessments and to more comprehensive reports, which may lead to intervention programs more closely aligned with clients’ needs.
Anglo-Saxon iconography in the York Psalter Virgin cycle

description: The miniatures of the York Psalter (MS.U.3.2, Univ. of Glasgow Library), an important manuscript from the north of England dating ca 1170, have an obvious relation in form, style and iconography to the pictorial cycles of 12th century English manuscripts as exemplified by the St. Albans Psalter, the Pembroke College MS.120 and the Four Psalter Leaves. However, the York Psalter is distinguished by the unique iconography of its Virgin cycle on the last three illustrated folios—six scenes depicting the Death, Burial and Assumption--which sets it apart from other representations of the subject in manuscripts from the south of England. This thesis is concerned with the literary and artistic sources for this distinct imagery. Chapter II analyzes the Virgin cycle first against the common textual Latin source and then against one of its recensions in an Anglo-Saxon homily on the narrative. The Anglo-Saxon version is shown to explain some of the unusual iconographic features in the cycle. The final scene of Assumption, which does not accord with either of these texts, is analyzed from the point of view of its dramatic form, and the shrouded body motif is established as a characteristic trait of Anglo-Saxon and later English art. Chapter III discusses in general the tradition of Dormition-Assumption iconography in Continental art and in particular the special tradition for the theme in art of the British Isles, where by comparison it occurs earlier and in more developed form. The recurrence of a Death and Assumption cycle in expanded form in the York Psalter can be seen as a logical development of a subject habitually present in English art. Chapter IV notes that throughout the iconography of the other miniatures, the artist of the York Psalter has followed in the main a variety of models from Byzantine art and contemporary English illumination. But, in some unusual and inventive features, very often the prototype turns out to be insular art. Anglo-Saxon iconography, which was the formative influence on the Virgin cycle, has also contributed an imaginative aspect to some of the other miniatures as well. In an atmosphere of ever-increasing devotion to Mary, the artist of the York Psalter Virgin cycle has combined Anglo-Saxon literary sources and pictorial motifs. In so doing he has created a unique iconography, imbued with a new, highly original content.

description: Hearing loss in the older adult population is a significant global health issue. Hearing aids can provide an effective means to address hearing loss and improve quality of life. Despite this, the uptake and continued use of hearing aids is low, with non-use of hearing aids representing a significant problem for effective audiological rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to investigate the reasons for the non-use of hearing aids. A cross-sectional survey was used to investigate the reasons given for the non-use of hearing aids by people with hearing loss (n = 332) and family members (n = 313) of people with hearing loss in Australia, the UK, and USA. Survey results showed that hearing aid non-users generally cited external factors as reasons for non-use, whereas family members reported non-use due to attitudinal barriers. Past users of hearing aids and family members of past users both identified devices factors as barriers to use. Differences in reasons for non-use may provide further insight for researchers and clinicians and help inform future clinical practice in addressing the low uptake and use of hearing aids by people with hearing loss and the role of family members in audiological rehabilitation.
Stability of BPS States and Weak Coupling Limits

description: We study the stability and spectrum of BPS states in ${\cal N}=2$ supergravity. We find evidence, and prove for a large class of cases, that BPS stability exhibits a certain filtration which is partially independent of the value of the gauge couplings. Specifically, for any perturbative value of any gauge coupling $g \ll 1$, a BPS state can only decay to some constituents if those constituents do not become infinitely heavier than it in the vanishing coupling limit $g \rightarrow 0$. This stability filtration can be mathematically formulated in terms of the monodromy weight filtration of the limiting mixed Hodge structure associated to the vanishing coupling limit. We study various implications of the result for the Swampland program which aims to understand such weak-coupling limits, specifically regarding the nature and presence of an infinite tower of light charged BPS states.
