4. Constructing the Multilingual Thesaurus and Ontology Service F into as a Tool for Promoting Open Science
Creators: name: Susanna Nykyri, and Satu Niininen
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2015

description: With an overwhelming amount of research being published globally in a wide range of formats, locating and accessing relevant information can be a challenge. Although open access is an important tool for removing financial, legal and technical barriers to information, it is not on its own enough to cross the language gap between different cultures. Language plays a key role in participating in the global scientific community. Through multilingual metadata, information can be located and retrieved across languages so that resources indexed using one language can be retrieved using another. Finto is a service for publication and utilisation of ontologies, thesauri, vocabularies and classifications. It provides a user interface for browsing vocabularies and open interfaces for utilising them in other applications. The service also aims to provide high-quality metadata tools for the public sector. Finto is being developed as a joint venture between the National Library of Finland, the Finnish Ministry of Finance, and the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture. Furthermore, in order to promote open science and free access to information, the service is being developed in an open manner and all its contents are available free-of-charge as open linked data. One of the main tasks in the Finto project is to develop General Finnish Ontology YSO in Finnish, Swedish and English. YSO is constructed by merging together the General Finnish Thesaurus and its counterpart in Swedish into a single hierarchical structure that explicitly specifies the concepts of a given domain and their relationships in a machine-readable format. Furthermore, the resulting ontology is translated into English and linked to the Library of Congress Subject Headings in order to link YSO with a global network of metadata. Working in a trilingual environment poses a number of language and culture-related challenges. As each culture conceptualises the world from its own viewpoint, meanings are seldom symmetrical across languages. Building a harmonious and understandable hierarchy in more than one language is a complex process and requires compromises. Moreover, translating the complete ontology into English and linking the concepts to LCSH involves connecting two very different languages together and requires a clear definition of an acceptable level of equivalence. This presentation illustrates the process and methods of constructing multilingual thesaurus and ontology services.

description: We report measurements of proper motion, radial velocity, and elemental composition for 14 X-ray knots in Kepler's supernova remnant (SNR) using Chandra data. The highest speed knots show both large proper motions (0.11-0.14 "/yr) and high radial velocities (v ~ 8,700--10,020 km/s) with estimated space velocities comparable to the typical Si velocity (~10,000 km/s) seen in SN Ia near maximum light. High speed ejecta knots appear only in specific locations and are morphologically and kinematically distinct from the rest of the ejecta. The proper motions of five knots extrapolate back over the age of Kepler's SNR to a consistent central position that agrees well with previous determinations, but is less subject to systematic errors. These five knots are expanding at close to the free expansion rate (expansion indices of 0.75

description: Linear thermal expansion coefficient (LTEC) of single crystal k-(D4-BEDT-TTF)2Cu[N(CN)2]Br was studied across the crystal layers in the temperature range 2-290 K using the method of precise capacitive dilatometry. Below Tc = 11,6 K the LTEC of the sample had a small negative value, which is apparently due to the transition from the paramagnetic metal in the superconducting state. There was a bend of temperature dependence of the LTEC, which shows broad peak around 40 K and can be attributed to the elastic lattice anomaly around the end-point of Mott boundary. A sharp jump in the LTEC values and hysteresis was observed in the area of Tg ~ 75-77 K, what is likely explained by the transition in a glass-like state. The isotope effect in the thermal expansion is discusses, which manifested itself in a shift of the phase transitions in comparison with fully deuterated BEDT-TTF sample.

description: We propose a methodology for the design of features mimicking the visual cues used by pathologists when identifying tissues in hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained samples. BACKGROUND: H&E staining is the gold standard in clinical histology; it is cheap and universally used, producing a vast number of histopathological samples. While pathologists accurately and consistently identify tissues and their pathologies, it is a time-consuming and expensive task, establishing the need for automated algorithms for improved throughput and robustness. METHODS: We use an iterative feedback process to design a histopathology vocabulary (HV), a concise set of features that mimic the visual cues used by pathologists, e.g. "cytoplasm color" or "nucleus density". These features are based in histology and understood by both pathologists and engineers. We compare our HV to several generic texture-feature sets in a pixel-level classification algorithm. RESULTS: Results on delineating and identifying tissues in teratoma tumor samples validate our expert knowledge-based approach. CONCLUSIONS: The HV can be an effective tool for identifying and delineating teratoma components from images of H&E-stained tissue samples.

description: We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of the type IIP supernova SN 2004et that occurred in the nearby galaxy NGC 6946. The observations span a time range of 8 days to 541 days after explosion. The late time bolometric luminosity and the H$α$ luminosity in the nebular phase indicate that $0.06\pm0.02{M_\odot}$ of $^{56}$Ni was synthesised during the explosion. The plateau luminosity, its duration and the expansion velocity of the supernova at the middle of the plateau indicate an explosion energy of $E_{\rm{exp}}= 1.20^{+0.38}_{-0.30} \times 10^{51}$ ergs. The late time light curve and the evolution of the [OI] and H$α$ emission line profiles indicate the possibility of an early dust formation in the supernova ejecta. The luminosity of [OI] 6300, 6364 Ådoublet, before the dust formation phase, is found to be comparable to that of SN 1987A at similar epochs, impling an oxygen mass in the range $1.5 - 2{M_\odot}$, and a main sequence mass of $20{M_\odot}$ for the progenitor.

description: A search is performed for a new sub-GeV vector boson ($A'$) mediated production of Dark Matter ($χ$) in the fixed-target experiment, NA64, at the CERN SPS. The $A'$, called dark photon, could be generated in the reaction $ e^- Z \to e^- Z A'$ of 100 GeV electrons dumped against an active target which is followed by the prompt invisible decay $A' \to χ\overlineχ$. The experimental signature of this process would be an event with an isolated electron and large missing energy in the detector. From the analysis of the data sample collected in 2016 corresponding to $4.3\times10^{10}$ electrons on target no evidence of such a process has been found. New stringent constraints on the $A'$ mixing strength with photons, $10^{-5}\lesssim ε\lesssim 10^{-2}$, for the $A'$ mass range $m_{A'} \lesssim 1$ GeV are derived. For models considering scalar and fermionic thermal Dark Matter interacting with the visible sector through the vector portal the 90% C.L. limits $10^{-11}\lesssim y \lesssim 10^{-6}$ on the dark-matter parameter $y = ε^2 α_D (\frac{m_χ}{m_{A'}})^4 $ are obtained for the dark coupling constant $α_D = 0.5$ and dark-matter masses $0.001 \lesssim m_χ\lesssim 0.5 $ GeV. The lower limits $α_D \gtrsim 10^{-3} $ for pseudo-Dirac Dark Matter in the mass region $m_χ\lesssim 0.05 $ GeV are more stringent than the corresponding bounds from beam dump experiments. The results are obtained by using tree level, exact calculations of the $A'$ production cross-sections, which turn out to be significantly smaller compared to the one obtained in the Weizsäcker-Williams approximation for the mass region $m_{A'} \gtrsim 0.1$ GeV.

We find the electron-portal can account for the excess well and satisfy the DM relic density and direct detection bounds, while electron+muon/electron+muon+tau-portal suffers from strong constraints from lepton flavor violating observables, such as $μ\to 3 e$. We also discuss possible collider signatures of our model, both at the LHC and a future 100 TeV hadron collider.

description: Reverse engineering of biological form and function requires hierarchical design over several orders of space and time. Recent advances in the mechanistic understanding of biosynthetic compound materials, computer-aided design approaches in molecular synthetic biology 4,5 and traditional soft robotics, and increasing aptitude in generating structural and chemical micro environments that promote cellular self-organization have enhanced the ability to recapitulate such hierarchical architecture in engineered biological systems. Here we combined these capabilities in a systematic design strategy to reverse engineer a muscular pump. We report the construction of a freely swimming jellyfish from chemically dissociated rat tissue and silicone polymer as a proof of concept. The constructs, termed 'medusoids', were designed with computer simulations and experiments to match key determinants of jellyfish propulsion and feeding performance by quantitatively mimicking structural design, stroke kinematics and animal-fluid interactions. The combination of the engineering design algorithm with quantitative benchmarks of physiological performance suggests that our strategy is broadly applicable to reverse engineering of muscular organs or simple life forms that pump to survive.

Thermal expansion in photo-assisted tunneling: visible light versus free-space terahertz pulses

description: Photo-assisted tunneling in scanning tunneling microscopy has attracted considerable interest to combine sub-picosecond and sub-nanometer resolutions. The illumination of a junction with visible or infrared light, however, induces thermal expansion of the tip and the sample, which strongly affects the measurements. Employing free-space THz pulses instead of visible light has been proposed to solve these thermal issues while providing photo-induced currents of similar magnitude. Here we compared the impact of illuminating the same tunneling junction, reaching comparable photo-induced current, with red light and with THz radiations. Our data provide a clear and direct evidence of thermal expansion with red light-illumination, while such thermal effects are negligible with THz radiations.
Improved second-order evaluation complexity for unconstrained nonlinear optimization using high-order regularized models

description: The unconstrained minimization of a sufficiently smooth objective function $f(x)$ is considered, for which derivatives up to order $p$, $p\geq 2$, are assumed to be available. An adaptive regularization algorithm is proposed that uses Taylor models of the objective of order $p$ and that is guaranteed to find a first- and second-order critical point in at most $O \left(\max\left( ε_1^{-\frac{p+1}{p}}, ε_2^{-\frac{p+1}{p-1}} \right) \right)$ function and derivatives evaluations, where $ε_1$ and $ε_2 >0$ are prescribed first- and second-order optimality tolerances. Our approach extends the method in Birgin et al. (2016) to finding second-order critical points, and establishes the novel complexity bound for second-order criticality under identical problem assumptions as for first-order, namely, that the $p$-th derivative tensor is Lipschitz continuous and that $f(x)$ is bounded from below. The evaluation-complexity bound for second-order criticality improves on all such known existing results.

We show that for any graded torsion free A-module M, there exists a natural graded integrable connection, i.e. a graded A-linear homomorphism $\nabla: \operatorname{Der}_k(A) \to \operatorname{End}_k(M)$ that satisfy the derivation property and preserves the Lie product. In particular, a torsion free module N over the complete local ring $B = \hat A$ admits a natural integrable connection if A is a simple curve singularity, or if A is irreducible and N is a gradable module.

description: The goal of this work is to constrain the strength and structure of the magnetic field in the nearby cluster of galaxies A2255. At radio wavelengths A2255 is characterized by the presence of a polarized radio halo at the cluster center, a relic source at the cluster periphery, and several embedded radio galaxies. The polarized radio emission from all these sources is modified by Faraday rotation as it traverses the magnetized intra-cluster medium. The distribution of Faraday rotation can be used to probe the magnetic field strength and topology in the cluster. For this purpose, we performed Very Large Array observations at 3.6 and 6 cm of four polarized radio galaxies embedded in A2255, obtaining detailed rotation measure images for three of them. We analyzed these data together with the very deep radio halo image recently obtained by us. We simulated random 3-dimensional magnetic field models characterized by different power spectra and produced synthetic rotation measure and radio halo images. By comparing the simulations with the data we are able to determine the strength and the power spectrum of the intra-cluster magnetic field fluctuations which best reproduce the observations. The data require a steepening of the power spectrum spectral index from n=2, at the cluster center, up to n=4, at the cluster periphery and the presence of filamentary structures on large scales. The average magnetic field strength at the cluster center is 2.5 muG. The field strength declines from the cluster center outward with an average magnetic field strength calculated over 1 Mpc^3 of about 1.2 muG.

description: Scintillation at cryogenic temperatures can give rise to detectors with particle discrimination for rare-event searches such as dark matter detection. We present time-resolved scintillation studies of Caesium Iodide (CsI) under excitation of both alpha and gamma particles over a long acquisition window of 1 ms to fully capture the scintillation decay between room temperature and 4 K. This allows a measurement of the light yield independent of any shaping time of the pulse. We find the light yield of CsI to increase up to two orders of magnitude from that of room temperature at cryogenic temperatures, and the quenching factor of alpha to gamma excitation to exceed 1 over a range of temperatures between 10 and 100 K. We also find the time structure of the emitted light to follow similar exponential decay time constants between alpha and gamma excitation, with the temperature behaviour consistent with a model of self-trapped exciton de-excitation.

description: The interference term between s- and t-pole contributions to the p(e,e' pi+)n cross section is evaluated on the basis of the constituent quark model. It is shown that the contribution of baryon s-poles can be modeled by a nonlocal extension of the Kroll-Rudermann contact term. This contribution is in a destructive interference with the pion t-pole that is essential to improve the description of recent JLab data at the invariant mass W=1.95 GeV. Some predictions are made for a new JLab measurement at higher values W=2.1-2.3 GeV and Q2 centered at 1.6 and 2.45 GeV2/c2.

description: Ventricular assist devices (VADs) and total artificial hearts have been in development for the last 50 years. Since their inception, simulators of the circulation with different degrees of complexity have been produced to test these devices in vitro. Currently, a new path has been taken with the extensive efforts to develop paediatric VADs, which require totally different design constraints. This paper presents the manufacturing details of an economical simulator of the systemic paediatric circulation. This simulator allows the insertion of a paediatric VAD, includes a pumping ventricle, and is adjustable within the paediatric range. Rather than focusing on complexity and physiological simulation, this simulator is designed to be simple and practical for rapid device testing. The simulator was instrumented with medical sensors and data were acquired under different conditions with and without the new PediaFlowTM paediatric VAD. The VAD was run at different impeller speeds while simulator settings such as vascular resistance and stroke volume were varied. The hydraulic performance of the VAD under pulsatile conditions could be characterized and the magnetic suspension could be tested via manipulations such as cannula clamping. This compact mock loop has proven to be valuable throughout the PediaFlow development process and has the advantage that it is uncomplicated and can be manufactured cheaply. It can be produced by several research groups and the results of different VADs can then be compared easily.

description: Silicon tracking detectors can record the charge in each channel (analog or digitized) or have only binary readout (hit or no hit). While there is significant literature on the position resolution obtained from interpolation of charge measurements, a comprehensive study of the resolution obtainable with binary readout is lacking. It is commonly assumed that the binary resolution is $\text{pitch}/\sqrt{12}$, but this is generally a worst case upper limit. In this paper we study, using simulation, the best achievable resolution for minimum ionizing particles in binary readout pixels. A wide range of incident angles and pixel sizes are simulated with a standalone code, using the Bichsel model for charge deposition. The results show how the resolution depends on angles and sensor geometry. Until the pixel pitch becomes so small as to be comparable to the distance between energy deposits in silicon, the resolution is always better, and in some cases much better, than $\text{pitch}/\sqrt{12}$.

description: We investigate the possibility that dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe are generated by the same mechanism, following an idea initially proposed by V.A. Kuzmin and recently discussed by R. Kitano and I. Low. In our model, based on a left-right extension of the Standard Model, the baryon asymmetry is generated through leptogenesis and dark matter is made of relic stable right-handed neutrinos with mass ~ few GeV. Constraints on the model imply that this form of dark matter would unfortunately escape detection.

description: For any $\ell > 0$, we present an algorithm which takes as input a semi-algebraic set, $S$, defined by $P_1 \leq 0,...,P_s \leq 0$, where each $P_i \in \R[X_1,...,X_k]$ has degree $\leq 2,$ and computes the top $\ell$ Betti numbers of $S$, $b_{k-1}(S), ..., b_{k-\ell}(S),$ in polynomial time. The complexity of the algorithm, stated more precisely, is $ \sum_{i=0}^{\ell+2} {s \choose i} k^{2^{O(\min(\ell,s))}}. $ For fixed $\ell$, the complexity of the algorithm can be expressed as $s^{\ell+2} k^{2^{O(\ell)}},$ which is polynomial in the input parameters $s$ and $k$. To our knowledge this is the first polynomial time algorithm for computing non-trivial topological invariants of semi-algebraic sets in $\R^k$ defined by polynomial inequalities, where the number of inequalities is not fixed and the polynomials are allowed to have degree greater than one. For fixed $s$, we obtain by letting $\ell = k$, an algorithm for computing all the Betti numbers of $S$ whose complexity is $k^{2^{O(s)}}$.

description: This is a story about the contributor's aunt and uncle. The uncle was called away to Glasgow/Airdrie for basic training in Scotland before being sent to London for special training. He had 48 hours’ leave and got the train from Glasgow to London as a surprise for his wife, as she got on the train to London for some reason and they passed! They didn't see each other at all for those 48 hours. He was posted to the desert for five years and they never saw each other in that time. His only leave was to Jerusalem. He returned from war a totally different man. He had previously been assertive and confident.He never spoke about the war. There are some photos in sealed envelope in the back of the cupboard. Jean Glendinning worked on the Queen Mary as a stewardess/children's nurse. She was away for long periods between Britain and America (also visited Ghana, Spain and others). She brought back dolls from each country and the first pineapple they'd ever seen, and also, a nameless meat which turned out to be whale meat. When war broke out, the ship was requisitioned for a troop/hospital ship and the crew invited to stay on if they had a relevant skill. So, she stayed on as a nurse throughout the war (She was also a ladies golf champion and represented Scotland at hockey).The contributor's father (Allan MacFarlane) joined the Air Force (ground crew at Prestwick, mending Spitfires and had wings). He was told of redeployment and given leave. So, he brought his marriage forward to 14th February 1942. He was then redeployed to Prestwick Airport and given charge of leave rota. His son was born in 1943 and didn't know him. On silver wedding anniversary wife discovered wedding ring and still had 5th May.During the war, David MacFarlane (brother) had his tonsils taken out by GP on the kitchen table. The contributor's Mum and sister (Rita) lived through the Clydebank Blitz. They were at the cinema only in a pair of silk stockings and new crocodile shoes, which were kicked off when bombs fell. She couldn't find them and had to walk back to Anniesland Cross in stockings with bombs were falling. She said, "why didn't stockings come off too?".They lost neighbours and there was lots of sadness and seriousness but focused on the funny memories.

The Chemical Evolution of Helium

description: We report on measurements of the 4He abundance toward the outer Galaxy HII region S206 with the NRAO Green Bank telescope. Observations of hydrogen and helium radio recombination lines between 8-10 GHz were made toward the peak radio continuum position in S206. We derive 4He/H = 0.08459 +/- 0.00088 (random) +/- 0.0010 (known systematic), 20% lower than optical recombination line results. It is difficult to reconcile the large discrepancy between the optical and radio values even when accounting for temperature, density, and ionization structure or for optical extinction by dust. Using only M17 and S206 we determine dY/dZ = 1.41 +/- 0.62 in the Galaxy, consistent with standard chemical evolution models. High helium abundances in the old stellar population of elliptical galaxies can help explain the increase in UV emission with shorter wavelength between 2000 and 1200 Angstrom, called the UV-upturn or UVX. Our lower values of dY/dZ are consistent with a normal helium abundance at higher metallicity and suggest that other factors, such as a variable red giant branch mass-loss with metallicity, may be important. When combined with 4He abundances in metal poor galaxy HII regions, Magellanic cloud HII regions, and M17 that have been determined from optical recombination lines including the effects of temperature fluctuations, our radio 4He/H abundance ratio for S206 is consistent with a helium evolution of dY/dZ = 1.6. A linear extrapolation to zero metallicity predicts a 4He/H primordial abundance ratio about 5% lower than that given by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe and standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis. The measured 4He abundances may be systematically underestimated by a few percent if clumping exists in these HII regions.

description: With the congestion of the sub-6 GHz spectrum, the interest in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems operating on millimeter wave spectrum grows. In order to reduce the power consumption of such massive MIMO systems, hybrid analog/digital transceivers and application of low-resolution digital-to-analog/analog-to-digital converters have been recently proposed. In this work, we investigate the energy efficiency of quantized hybrid transmitters equipped with a fully/partially-connected phase-shifting network composed of active/passive phase-shifters and compare it to that of quantized digital precoders. We introduce a quantized single-user MIMO system model based on an additive quantization noise approximation considering realistic power consumption and loss models to evaluate the spectral and energy efficiencies of the transmit precoding methods. Simulation results show that partially-connected hybrid precoders can be more energy-efficient compared to digital precoders, while fully-connected hybrid precoders exhibit poor energy efficiency in general. Also, the topology of phase-shifting components offers an energy-spectral efficiency trade-off: active phase-shifters provide higher data rates, while passive phase-shifters maintain better energy efficiency.

description: Known key exchange schemes offering information-theoretic (unconditional) security are complex and costly to implement. Nonetheless, they remain the only known methods for achieving unconditional security in key exchange. Therefore, the explorations for simpler solutions for information-theoretic security are highly justified. Lin et al. [1] proposed an interesting hardware key distribution scheme that utilizes thermal-noise-free resistances and DC voltages.
 A crypto analysis of this system is presented. It is shown that, if Eve gains access to the initial shared secret at any time in the past or future, she can successfully crack all the generated keys in the past and future, even retroactively, using passively obtained and recorded voltages and currents. Therefore, the scheme is not a secure key exchanger, but it is rather a key expander with no more information entropy than the originally shared secret at the beginning.
 We also point out that the proposed defense methods against active attacks do not function when the original shared secret is compromised because then the communication cannot be efficiently authenticated. However, they do work when an unconditionally secure key exchanger is applied to enable the authenticated communication protocol.
