description: This paper focuses on reinforcement learning (RL) with limited prior knowledge. In the domain of swarm robotics for instance, the expert can hardly design a reward function or demonstrate the target behavior, forbidding the use of both standard RL and inverse reinforcement learning. Although with a limited expertise, the human expert is still often able to emit preferences and rank the agent demonstrations. Earlier work has presented an iterative preference-based RL framework: expert preferences are exploited to learn an approximate policy return, thus enabling the agent to achieve direct policy search. Iteratively, the agent selects a new candidate policy and demonstrates it; the expert ranks the new demonstration comparatively to the previous best one; the expert's ranking feedback enables the agent to refine the approximate policy return, and the process is iterated. In this paper, preference-based reinforcement learning is combined with active ranking in order to decrease the number of ranking queries to the expert needed to yield a satisfactory policy. Experiments on the mountain car and the cancer treatment testbeds witness that a couple of dozen rankings enable to learn a competent policy.
Catastrophic Evaporation of Rocky Planets

description: Short-period exoplanets can have dayside surface temperatures surpassing 2000 K, hot enough to vaporize rock and drive a thermal wind. Small enough planets evaporate completely. We construct a radiative-hydrodynamic model of atmospheric escape from strongly irradiated, low-mass rocky planets, accounting for dust-gas energy exchange in the wind. Rocky planets with masses < 0.1 M_Earth (less than twice the mass of Mercury) and surface temperatures > 2000 K are found to disintegrate entirely in < 10 Gyr. When our model is applied to Kepler planet candidate KIC 12557548b --- which is believed to be a rocky body evaporating at a rate of dM/dt > 0.1 M_Earth/Gyr --- our model yields a present-day planet mass of < 0.02 M_Earth or less than about twice the mass of the Moon. Mass loss rates depend so strongly on planet mass that bodies can reside on close-in orbits for Gyrs with initial masses comparable to or less than that of Mercury, before entering a final short-lived phase of catastrophic mass loss (which KIC 12557548b has entered). Because this catastrophic stage lasts only up to a few percent of the planet's life, we estimate that for every object like KIC 12557548b, there should be 10--100 close-in quiescent progenitors with sub-day periods whose hard-surface transits may be detectable by Kepler --- if the progenitors are as large as their maximal, Mercury-like sizes (alternatively, the progenitors could be smaller and more numerous). According to our calculations, KIC 12557548b may have lost ~70% of its formation mass; today we may be observing its naked iron core.

Holographic Superconductor/Insulator Transition with logarithmic electromagnetic field in Gauss-Bonnet gravity

description: The behaviors of the holographic superconductors/insulator transition are studied by introducing a charged scalar field coupled with a logarithmic electromagnetic field in both the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet AdS black hole and soliton. For the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet AdS black hole, we find that: i) the larger coupling parameter of logarithmic electrodynamic field $b$ makes it easier for the scalar hair to be condensated; ii) the ratio of the gap frequency in conductivity $ω_g$ to the critical temperature $T_c$ depends on both $b$ and the Gauss-Bonnet constant $α$; and iii) the critical exponents are independent of the $b$ and $α$. For the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet AdS Soliton, we show that the system is the insulator phase when the chemical potential $μ$ is small, but there is a phase transition and the AdS soliton reaches the superconductor (or superfluid) phase when $μ$ larger than critical chemical potential. A special property should be noted is that the critical chemical potential is not changed by the coupling parameter $b$ but depends on $α$.

description: We study by Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) the structure of Hyaluronan -Lysozyme complexes. Hyaluronan (HA) is a polysaccharide of 9 nm intrinsic persistence length that bears one negative charge per disaccharide monomer (Mmol = 401.3 g/mol); two molecular weights, Mw = 6000 and 500 000 Da were used. The pH was adjusted at 4.7 and 7.4 so that lysozyme has a global charge of +10 and + 8 respectively. The lysozyme concentration was varied from 3 to 40 g/L, at constant HA concentration (10 g/L). At low protein concentration, samples are monophasic and SANS experiments reveal only fluctuations of concentration although, at high protein concentration, clusters are observed by SANS in the dense phase of the diphasic samples. In between, close to the onset of the phase separation, a distinct original scattering is observed. It is characteristic of a rod-like shape, which could characterize "single" complexes involving one or a few polymer chains. For the large molecular weight (500 000) the rodlike rigid domains extend to much larger length scale than the persistence length of the HA chain alone in solution and the range of the SANS investigation. They can be described as a necklace of proteins attached along a backbone of diameter one or a few HA chains. For the short chains (Mw ~ 6000), the rod length of the complexes is close to the chain contour length (~ 15 nm).

Quantum Speed Limit With Forbidden Speed Intervals

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quantum mechanics imposes fundamental constraints known as quantum speed limits (QSLs) on the information processing speed of all quantum systems. Every QSL known to date comes from the restriction imposed on the evolution time between two quantum states through the value of a single system observable such as the mean energy relative to its ground state. So far these restrictions only place upper bounds on the information processing speed of a quantum system. Here I report QSLs each with permissible information processing speeds separated by forbidden speed intervals. They are found by a systematic and efficient procedure that takes the values of several compatible system observables into account simultaneously. This procedure generalizes almost all existing QSL proofs; and the new QSLs show a novel first order phase transition in the minimum evolution time.

description: For a Morse function f on a compact oriented manifold M, we show that f has more critical points than the number required by the Morse inequalities if and only if there exists a certain class of link in M whose components have nontrivial linking number, such that the minimal value of f on one of the components is larger than its maximal value on the other. Indeed we characterize the precise number of critical points of f in terms of the Betti numbers of M and the behavior of f with respect to links. This can be viewed as a refinement, in the case of compact manifolds, of the Rabinowitz Saddle Point Theorem. Our approach, inspired in part by techniques of chain-level symplectic Floer theory, involves associating to collections of chains in M algebraic operations on the Morse complex of f, which yields relationships between the linking numbers of homologically trivial (pseudo)cycles in M and an algebraic linking pairing on the Morse complex.

description: Social Media Editors (SME) are involved in digital news circulation, engagement with online audiences, and the analysis and circulation of audience data. This article extends research on SMEs to investigate how employers make sense of these positions and the roles they are required to perform within news organizations. To do so, we analyze job listings for SMEs posted by US news companies in combination with interviews with SMEs. Employers play a significant role in defining journalism as a profession, and job announcements are indicative of how managers envisage journalism roles. Our findings suggest that, although employers explicitly seek candidates with journalism backgrounds, the most common job requirements for SMEs are more closely aligned with marketing skills and tasks than traditional news work. Further, our interviews indicate ways in which SMEs are maneuvering to redefine their positions in ways that better meet their professional goals. SMEs are pushing to assume higher-level and more strategic roles by moving away from comment moderation and direct social media audience engagement. The boundaries of the SME position are thus under constant negotiation within the newsroom and between journalists and their employers.

description: We propose an improved version of Antisymmetrized Quasi-Cluster Model (AQCM) to describe a smooth transition from the $α$-cluster wave function to the $jj$-coupling shell model wave function and apply it to the ground state of $^{12}$C. The cluster-shell transition in $^{12}$C is characterized in AQCM by only two parameters: $R$ representing the distance between $α$ clusters and the center of mass, and $Λ$ describing the break of $α$ clusters. The optimal AQCM wave function for the ground state of $^{12}$C is an intermediate state between the three-$α$ cluster state and the shell model state with the $p_{3/2}$ subshell closure configuration. The result is consistent with that of the Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics (AMD), and the optimal AQCM wave function quantitatively agrees with the AMD one, although the number of degrees of freedom in AQCM is significantly fewer.

description: Exact solutions for symmetric discrete breathers (DBs) are obtained in forced-damped linear chain with on-site vibro-impact constraints. The damping is related to inelastic impacts; the forcing may be chosen from broad class of periodic antisymmetric functions. Global conditions for existence and stability of the DB are established. Some unusual phenomena, like non-monotonous dependence of the stability boundary on the forcing amplitude, are revealed analytically for the full system and illustrated numerically for small periodic lattices.

description: Cinematic Virtual Reality (CVR), or 360 video, engages users in immersive viewing experiences. However, as users watch one part of the 360 view, they will necessarily miss out on events happening in other parts of the sphere. Consequently, fear of missing out (FOMO) is unavoidable. However, users can also experience the joy of missing out (JOMO). In a repeated measures, mixed methods design, we examined the fear and joy of missing out (FOMO and JOMO) and sense of presence in two repeat viewings of a 360 flm using a head-mounted display. We found that users experienced both FOMO and JOMO. FOMO was caused by the users' awareness of parallel events in the spherical view, but users also experienced JOMO. FOMO did not compromise viewers' sense of presence, and FOMO also decreased in the second viewing session, while JOMO remained constant. The fndings suggest that FOMO and JOMO can be two integral qualities in an immersive video viewing experience and that FOMO may not be as negative a factor as previously thought.

Then we give a Lichnerowicz type lower bound of the first eigenvalue of the $f$-Laplacian on compact manifold with positive $m$-Bakry-Émery Ricci curvature, and prove that the lower bound is achieved only if the manifold is isometric to the $n$-shpere, or the $n$-dimensional hemisphere. Finally, for compact manifold with positive $m$-Bakry-Émery Ricci curvature and $f$-mean convex boundary, we prove an upper bound for the distance function to the boundary, and the upper bound is achieved if only if the manifold is isometric to an Euclidean ball.

description: Checking the admissibility of quasiequations in a finitely generated (i.e., generated by a finite set of finite algebras) quasivariety Q amounts to checking validity in a suitable finite free algebra of the quasivariety, and is therefore decidable. However, since free algebras may be large even for small sets of small algebras and very few generators, this naive method for checking admissibility in $\Q$ is not computationally feasible. In this paper, algorithms are introduced that generate a minimal (with respect to a multiset well-ordering on their cardinalities) finite set of algebras such that the validity of a quasiequation in this set corresponds to admissibility of the quasiequation in Q. In particular, structural completeness (validity and admissibility coincide) and almost structural completeness (validity and admissibility coincide for quasiequations with unifiable premises) can be checked. The algorithms are illustrated with a selection of well-known finitely generated quasivarieties, and adapted to handle also admissibility of rules in finite-valued logics.

In this work we study theoretically the enhanced emission of energy from coherent ensembles of harmonic oscillators. We show that it should be possible to observe harmonic oscillator superradiance for the first time in waveguide arrays in integrated photonics. Furthermore, we describe how pairwise correlations within the ensemble can be measured with this architecture. These pairwise correlations are an integral part of the phenomenon of superradiance and have never been observed in experiments to date.

Spatial constraints underlying the retinal mosaics of two types of horizontal cells in cat and macaque

Subjects: subject: Neurons and Cognition (q-bio.NC)

description: Most types of retinal neurons are spatially positioned in non-random patterns, termed retinal mosaics. Several developmental mechanisms are thought to be important in the formation of these mosaics. Most evidence to date suggests that homotypic constraints within a type of neuron are dominant, and that heterotypic interactions between different types of neuron are rare. In an analysis of macaque H1 and H2 horizontal cell mosaics, Wässle et al. (2000) suggested that the high regularity index of the combined H1 and H2 mosaic might be caused by heterotypic interactions during development. Here we use computer modelling to suggest that the high regularity index of the combined H1 and H2 mosaic is a by-product of the basic constraint that two neurons cannot occupy the same space. The spatial arrangement of type A and type B horizontal cells in cat retina also follow this same principle.

What is a quantum-mechanical 'weak value' the value of?

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: A so called 'weak value' of an observable in quantum mechanics (QM) may be obtained in a weak measurement + post-selection procedure on the QM system under study. Applied to number operators, it has been invoked in revisiting some QM paradoxes (e.g., the so called Three Box paradox and Hardy s paradox). This requires the weak value to be interpreted as a bona fide property of the system considered, a par with entities like operator mean values and eigenvalues. I question such an interpretation; it has no support in the basic axioms of quantum mechanics and it leads to unreasonable results in concrete situations.

description: Mechanisms involved in the star formation process and in particular the duration of the different phases of the cloud contraction are not yet fully understood. Photometric data alone suggest that objects coexist in the young cluster NGC6530 with ages from ~1 Myr up to 10 Myrs. We want to derive accurate stellar parameters and, in particular, stellar ages to be able to constrain a possible age spread in the star-forming region NGC6530. We used low-resolution spectra taken with VIMOS@VLT and literature spectra of standard stars to derive spectral types of a subsample of 94 candidate members of this cluster. We assign spectral types to 86 of the 88 confirmed cluster members and derive individual reddenings. Our data are better fitted by the anomalous reddening law with R$_{\rm V}$=5. We confirm the presence of strong differential reddening in this region. We derive fundamental stellar parameters, such as effective temperatures, photospheric colors, luminosities, masses, and ages for 78 members, while for the remaining 8 YSOs we cannot determine the interstellar absorption, since they are likely accretors, and their V-I colors are bluer than their intrinsic colors. The cluster members studied in this work have masses between 0.4 and 4 M$_\odot$ and ages between 1-2 Myrs and 6-7 Myrs. We find that the SE region is the most recent site of star formation, while the older YSOs are loosely clustered in the N and W regions. The presence of two distint generations of YSOs with different spatial distribution allows us to conclude that in this region there is an age spread of ~6-7 Myrs. This is consistent with the scenario of sequential star formation suggested in literature.

description: Στην σημερινή εποχή το περιβάλλον του Apache Spark έχει εξελιχθεί σε ένα από τα πιο βασικά cluster computing framework στον κόσμο και οι FPGAs έχουν ενσωματωθεί στα κέντρα δεδομένων. Έτσι θέσαμε ως σκοπό της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας την εκτέλεση εργασιών μέσω του περιβάλλοντος Apache Spark σε FPGA.Ως εργαλείο για τον προγραμματισμό της FPGA, επιλέξαμε το περιβάλλον σύνθεσης υψηλού επιπέδου SDSoC. Δημιουργήσαμε μια καινούρια ειδική πλατφόρμα “zed” μέσα στο περιβάλλον του SDSoC.Βασισμένοι σε αυτήν την πλατφόρμα δημιουργήσαμε την εφαρμογή του πολλαπλασιασμού πινάκων και την εφαρμογή μετατροπής πίνακα με δεδομένα RGB σε πίνακα με δεδομένα HSV, με σκοπό την ταχύτερη εκτέλεσή τους. Και οι δυο εφαρμογές είναι γραμμένες σε γλώσσα υψηλού επιπέδου C++.Για να δημιουργήσουμε το λειτουργικό σύστημα της FPGA χρησιμοποιήσαμε το περιβάλλον PetaLinux 2017.4.Το λειτουργικό σύστημα είναι ειδικά σχεδιασμένο για επεξεργαστή ARM Cortex™-A9.Επιπλέον εγκαταστήσαμε το περιβάλλον του Apache Spark στα ZedBoard. Έτσι κατασκευάσαμε ένα cluster το οποίο αποτελείται από δύο ZedBoard και έναν H/Y γενικής χρήσης, για την εκτέλεση των πειραμάτων. Τέλος, επιβεβαιώσαμε την σωστή λειτουργία και αξιολογήσαμε την συγκεκριμένη αρχιτεκτονική μέσα από διάφορα πειράματα βασισμένα στις δυο εφαρμογές. Πιο συγκεκριμένα για την πρώτη εφαρμογή πετύχαμε έως περίπου 6,5 φορές χαμηλότερη κατανάλωση ενέργειας και έως  11 φορές ταχύτερη εκτέλεση  από έναν Η/Υ. Αντίστοιχα για την δεύτερη εφαρμογή είχαμε έως 6,1 φορές χαμηλότερη κατανάλωση ενέργειας από έναν Η/Υ και αυξάνοντας σε δύο τα ZedBoard πετύχαμε έως περίπου 1,2 φορές ταχύτερη εκτέλεση σε σχέση με το ένα ZedBoard.Έτσι μέσα από τα πειράματα διαπιστώσαμε την ορθή λειτουργία του Apache Spark μέσω των FPGA και την πολύ καλή απόδοση ανά watt των FPGA.
Infinite sequential Nash equilibrium

description: In game theory, the concept of Nash equilibrium reflects the collective stability of some individual strategies chosen by selfish agents. The concept pertains to different classes of games, e.g. the sequential games, where the agents play in turn. Two existing results are relevant here: first, all finite such games have a Nash equilibrium (w.r.t. some given preferences) iff all the given preferences are acyclic; second, all infinite such games have a Nash equilibrium, if they involve two agents who compete for victory and if the actual plays making a given agent win (and the opponent lose) form a quasi-Borel set. This article generalises these two results via a single result. More generally, under the axiomatic of Zermelo-Fraenkel plus the axiom of dependent choice (ZF+DC), it proves a transfer theorem for infinite sequential games: if all two-agent win-lose games that are built using a well-behaved class of sets have a Nash equilibrium, then all multi-agent multi-outcome games that are built using the same well-behaved class of sets have a Nash equilibrium, provided that the inverse relations of the agents' preferences are strictly well-founded.

description: This paper shows that differentiating the lifetimes of two phenotypes independently from their fertility can lead to a qualitative change in the equilibrium of a population: since survival and reproduction are distinct functional aspects of an organism, this observation contributes to extend the population-genetical characterisation of biological function. To support this statement a mathematical relation is derived to link the lifetime ratio T_1/T_2, which parametrizes the different survival ability of two phenotypes, with population variables that quantify the amount of neutral variation underlying a population's phenotypic distribution.

Zero-Temperature Coarsening in the 2d Potts Model

description: We study the fate of the 2d kinetic q-state Potts model after a sudden quench to zero temperature. Both ground states and complicated static states are reached with non-zero probabilities. These outcomes resemble those found in the quench of the 2d Ising model; however, the variety of static states in the q-state Potts model (with q>=3) is much richer than in the Ising model, where static states are either ground or stripe states. Another possibility is that the system gets trapped on a set of equal-energy blinker states where a subset of spins can flip ad infinitum; these states are similar to those found in the quench of the 3d Ising model. The evolution towards the final energy is also unusual---at long times, sudden and massive energy drops may occur that are accompanied by macroscopic reordering of the domain structure. This indeterminacy in the zero-temperature quench of the kinetic Potts model is at odds with basic predictions from the theory of phase-ordering kinetics. We also propose a continuum description of coarsening with more than two equivalent ground states. The resulting time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations reproduce the complex cluster patterns that arise in the quench of the kinetic Potts model.

title: Evaluation of Rhodococcus equi Susceptibility to Silver Nanoparticle Antimicrobials

Publisher: name: University of Kentucky Libraries

description: Rhodococcus equi is a significant cause of pneumonia in foals and immunocompromised humans. Antimicrobial resistance among R. equi isolates has developed as a consequence of inappropriate stewardship and bacterial evolution, leading to an increased rate of treatment failures that typically result in foal fatality. In the current study, we evaluated the efficacy of antimicrobial silver nanoparticle (AgNP) complexes in controlling R. equi growth. Previous studies characterizing AgNP-induced antibacterial effects in other Gram-positive pathogens led us to hypothesize that silver nanoparticle antimicrobials impact R. equi viability and intracellular replication. We therefore investigated the effect of silver nanoparticle complexes on R. equi growth; assessed whether silver nanoparticle complexes prevent intracellular replication of R. equi; and evaluated the safety of silver nanoparticles in host cells. The results presented here demonstrate that silver nanoparticle complexes exhibit bactericidal activity against R. equi. However, AgNP effective concentrations also induced rapid apoptosis and secondary necrosis of macrophage-like cells and equine pulmonary endothelial cells, suggesting multiple mechanisms of cytotoxicity. Overall, this study demonstrates that while silver nanoparticle-based therapeutics can effectively control R. equi proliferation, application of AgNP complexes as a treatment strategy for controlling rhodococcal disease may be limited by adverse host cellular effects.
