description: Artificial intelligence (AI) continues transforming business from physical to online, from national to international platforms. From human intervention to computer-based intervention. Artificial intelligence is used in enterprises for various purposes, including the aggregation of company data and the simplification of employment operations. In particular, as it applies to blue-collar occupations, researchers are unsure about what artificial intelligence implies for the future of business. Digital technology is anticipated to go from the two-dimensional screen to the three-dimensional physical environment surrounding a person in the given market. The existing article bridge AI and business growth.

description: The nonlinear and nonlocal PDE $$ |v_t|^{p-2}v_t+(-Δ_p)^sv=0 \, , $$ where $$ (-Δ_p)^s v\, (x,t)=2 \,\text{PV} \int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\frac{|v(x,t)-v(x+y,t)|^{p-2}(v(x,t)-v(x+y,t))}{|y|^{n+sp}}\, dy, $$ has the interesting feature that an associated Rayleigh quotient is non-increasing in time along solutions. We prove the existence of a weak solution of the corresponding initial value problem which is also unique as a viscosity solution. Moreover, we provide Hölder estimates for viscosity solutions and relate the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the eigenvalue problem for the fractional $p$-Laplacian.
A Comparison of Speciation Methods on Environmentally Isolated, Sediment Associated Aeromonas using Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry and Three Housekeeping Genes
Creators: name: Huslage, Daniel Kirk
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: Background: The taxonomy of Aeromonas is complex and has confounded researchers for years. Over the past twenty years, technological advances have allowed researchers to attempt to clarify the taxonomy through genetic and proteomic techniques. Several of these advances include PCR amplification and sequencing of numerous housekeeping genes and small sub-unit ribosomal DNA (16SrDNA) in order to determine the small taxonomic differences between the species in the genus Aeromonas. Another method that has recently been employed in this endeavor is matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). Since it is a relatively new method used for aeromonads, no one to date has sought to compare the genetic and proteomic approaches to see which has more utility for the determination of species within the genus.

description: In a direct detection scheme we observed 7.8 dB of twin-beam squeezing for multi-mode two-color squeezed vacuum generated via parametric down conversion. Applying post-selection, we conditionally prepared a sub-Poissonian state of light containing $6.3\cdot10^5$ photons per pulse on the average with the Fano factor $0.63\pm0.01$. The scheme can be considered as the heralded preparation of pulses with the mean energy varying between tens and hundreds of fJ and the uncertainty considerably below the shot-noise level. Such pulses can be used in metrology (for instance, for radiometers calibration) as well as for probing multi-mode nonlinear optical effects.

Computer Modeling of Contaminant Jet Flow into Local Exhaust Hoods
Creators: name: Smith, Kirby N.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1989

description: A computer model was developed and coded in BASIC topredict the streamline that a jet of gaseous sulfur hexafluoride will follow in the flow field of a flanged circular exhaust hood (FCH). This approximate solution is based on the vector addition of a modified potential flow solution for the FCH, and a jet flow solution. The assumptions underlying the equations describing jet flow are those of the Prandtl mixing length hypothesis. The computer program generates streamlines for the combined flow by means of iterative vector addition. The interactive program prompts the user for the hood and jet diameters and flows, and the distance from the hood at which the jet is placed. A graphic plot of the predicted streamline followed by the gas jet is displayed. The program is used to predict the critical distance [Z/D]50, the distance along the hood centerline (Z), as a fraction of the hood diameter (D), where the jet can be placed such that 50% of the jet contaminant flow is captured. A series of such [Z/D]50 values was generated for twenty-one hood and jet flow combinations. The program was validated in the laboratory. A probe was placed in the duct of a flanged circular exhaust hood and was connected to an electron-capture gas chromatograph, to determine the concentration of SF(6) in the hood. Capture efficiencies (ratios of "captured" gas concentrations at various jet-hood distances to concentrations in the duct when the jet flow is fully captured) were determined for jet positions at intervals along the hood centerline. Five replicate measurements were collected per position, for all combinations of jet and hood flow. Results indicate that the model is quite accurate when crossdrafts are accounted for, except for predicted [Z/D]50 values of less than 0.7, which occur quite close to the hood face. The approximate model errs in this region because it neglects the effects on the jet of the static pressure gradient created by the flow of the exhaust hood, and the shear turbulence of the interacting streamlines of jet and hood flow. The model may be expanded in the future to include definitive crossdraft variations, other jet locations or directions, hoods of other shapes, or heat and gas buoyancy effects. Key Words: Critical distance, flanged circular exhaust hood, capture efficiency, ventilation.

The Physiological Determinants of Aerosol Bolus Dispersion in Healthy Subjects
Creators: name: Brown, James S., Jr.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1991

description: An impulse-response method was utilized for studying the dispersion of an 0.5 μm aerosol bolus in the respiratory tract of 11 male and 12 female healthy non-smoking subjects. The increase in bolus volume variance (σv^2) between inspiration and expiration was used as an index of dispersion. The effects of bolus penetration (Vi), bolus volume (Vboi), lung inflation, and gender on σv^2 were investigated. The Vi was varied in 250 ml increments over a subject's tidal volume (Vt) . Procedures were repeated for the Vboi of 75, 150, and 300 ml in two Vt (1.0 and 1.5 L in females, 1.0 and 2.0 L in males). For the experimental conditions, diffusion of the bolus was negligible due to the low intrinsic motion of 0.5 μm particles. σv^2 was found to increase in an exponential manner with Vi over the range of experimental data (250 < Vi < 1750 ml) . The only significant factors were Vi and Vboi (p<0.001 for both). The effects of gender, Vt, and all interactions were not significant. A volume shift in the mean of the expired bolus toward the periphery was observed for all subjects. This shift decreased with increasing Vi and was significant for all levels of Vi (p<0.001). The effect of Vboi and the volumetric shift in the center of gravity of expired aerosol toward the lung's periphery show that expiration is not the reversal of inspiration and that asynchronous filling and emptying of the lung is present in healthy individuals. The continued increase in dispersion beyond a depth of 250 ml shows conclusively that convective mixing continues well beyond the anatomical dead space and into the lung's periphery.
A Computer Simulated Design for Welding Hoods
Creators: name: Tum Suden, Kimberly D.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1988

description: Computer programs written in BASICA were used to examine various exhaust hood designs for shielded metal arc welding. The breathing zone concentration was found to be an inverse linear function of the computer predicted capture efficiency . This result suggests that simple potential flow models maybe adequate in some cases to apply to industrial processes. In studying the parameters involved in hood design, aspect ratio and flow were found to have a significant effect on the breathing zone concentration. Worker position relative to the hood also was found to be a significant factor. Hood height showed no effect in reducing breathing zone concentrations. Further examination of hood height is warranted.
Alcohol Intoxication and Gender Norm in Willingness to Compete

description: How does alcohol intoxication impact the perception of social norms? To investigate this, we randomly assign alcohol and placebo beverages to subjects in the lab, and then elicit their empirical and normative expectations of males’ and females’ willingness to compete. While in another study we found that alcohol intoxication, by removing gender norm, reduces gender gap in willingness to compete, this study can help to address the question of whether alcohol intoxication affects perception of social norms or just makes people less adherent to the same norms.

On the Monotone Measure of Correlation
Creators: name: Etesami, Omid

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Based on the notion of maximal correlation, Kimeldorf, May and Sampson (1980) introduce a measure of correlation between two random variables, called the "concordant monotone correlation" (CMC). We revisit, generalize and prove new properties of this measure of correlation. It is shown that CMC captures various types of correlation detected in measures of rank correlation like the Kendall tau correlation. We show that the CMC satisfies the data processing and tensorization properties (that make ordinary maximal correlation applicable to problems in information theory). Furthermore, CMC is shown to be intimately related to the FKG inequality. Furthermore, a combinatorical application of CMC is given for which we do not know of another method to derive its result. Finally, we study the problem of the complexity of the computation of the CMC, which is a non-convex optimization problem with local maximas. We give a simple but exponential-time algorithm that is guaranteed to output the exact value of the generalized CMC.

Year: 1992

description: The Remedial Action Assessment System (RAAS), a computer-based decision support system currently under development at Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratories, was presented with an emphasis on expanding the capabilities of the software. RAAS is being developed to provide the benefits of decision support software to Superfund decision makers. The first version of RAAS focuses on automating the process of screening remediation technologies for their applicability at a hazardous waste site. Four specific contributions to RAAS development were made: three remediation technologies to be included in the RAAS technology database were described; methods to include technology screening based on applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) were discussed; criteria to extend the RAAS technology screening procedure to include discrimination based on effectiveness and implementability were developed; and a procedure to validate RAAS output against the work of environment consultants was presented. When fully implemented, RAAS has the potential to both expedite and standardize the Superfund remedy selection process.

Genotyping F+ RNA Coliphages by Hybridization with Oligonucleotide Probes
Creators: name: Hsu, Fu-Chih
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1994

description: F-specific RNA coliphages are prevalent in sewage and other fecal wastes of humans and animals. There are four antigenically distinct serogroups of F+ RNA coliphages and those predominating in humans (groups II and III) differ from those predominating in animals (groups I and IV). Hence, it may be possible to distinguish between human and animal wastes by serotyping F+ RNA coliphage isolates. Because serotyping requires scarce antiserum reagents, we investigated genotyping of F+ RNA coliphages using synthetic oligonucleotide probes as an alternative approach to distinguishing these four groups. Oligoprobes I, II, III, IV, A, and B, were selected to detect group I, II, III, IV, I + II, and III + IV phages, respectively. Methods for plaque transfer onto candidate membrane filters and fixation of genomic nucleic acid on the membranes were optimized. The oligoprobes were end labelled using digoxigenin, followed by DNA-RNA hybridization and colorimetric, immunoenzymatic detection. Of 203 confirmed isolates of F+ RNA coliphages in environmental samples of water, wastes, shellfish and animal feces, 99.5 and 96.6% could be identified into each group by serotyping and genotyping respectively. Probes A & Bcorrectly identified 100% of isolates. For each group (I, II, III, IV), serotyping identified 37, 116, 3, and 46 isolates and genotyping identified 37, 109, 4, and 46 isolates, respectively. Based on these results, this method for genotyping F+ RNA coliphages appears to be practical and reliable for identifying isolates in field samples.

description: We continue our investigation of large field inflation models obtained from higher-dimensional gauge theories, initiated in our previous study arXiv:1407.1951. We focus on Dante's Inferno model which was the most preferred model in our previous analysis. We point out the relevance of the IR obstruction to UV completion, which constrains the form of the potential of the massive vector field, under the current observational upper bound on the tensor to scalar ratio. We also show that in simple examples of the potential arising from DBI action of a D5-brane and that of an NS5-brane that the inflation takes place in the field range which is within the convergence radius of the Taylor expansion. This is in contrast to the well known examples of axion monodromy inflation where inflaton takes place outside the convergence radius of the Taylor expansion. This difference arises from the very essence of Dante's Inferno model that the effective inflaton potential is stretched in the inflaton field direction compared with the potential for the original field.

Sufficient Conditions for Efficient Classical Simulation of Quantum Optics

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We provide general sufficient conditions for the efficient classical simulation of quantum-optics experiments that involve inputting states to a quantum process and making measurements at the output. The first condition is based on the negativity of phase-space quasiprobability distributions (PQDs) of the output state of the process and the output measurements; the second one is based on the negativity of PQDs of the input states, the output measurements, and the transition function associated with the process. We show that these conditions provide useful practical tools for investigating the effects of imperfections in implementations of boson sampling. In particular, we apply our formalism to boson-sampling experiments that use single-photon or spontaneous-parametric-down-conversion sources and on-off photodetectors. Considering simple models for loss and noise, we show that above some threshold for the probability of random counts in the photodetectors, these boson-sampling experiments are classically simulatable. We identify mode mismatching as the major source of error contributing to random counts and suggest that this is the chief challenge for implementations of boson sampling of interesting size.

Analysis of PCB's in Water Using High Resolution Gas Chromatography/High Resolution Mass Spectrometry
Creators: name: Amin, Jakal M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1992

description: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in water samples are generally analyzed by high resolution gas chromatography/low resolution mass spectrometry (HRGC/LRMS) or high resolution gas chromatography with electron capture detection (HRGC/ECD). The detection limits reported using these techniques are on the order of 50-500 parts per trillion (ppt) per sample for the Mono-Deca PCBs (HRGC/LRMS). High resolution gas chromatography/high resolution mass spectrometry (HRGC/HRMS) is routinely used for the analysis of polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDDs/PCDFs) in water samples, with detection limits as low as 10 parts per quadrillion (ppq). This HRGC/HRMS technique has been utilized for the analysis of PCBs in water/wastewater samples and the results indicate that the detection limits of these species are at least two orders of magnitude lower (100 ppq range) than achieved using the low resolution mass spectrometric technique. Using this technique, PCBs are reported as totals for each isomer group as well as isomer specific analysis for eleven isomers, seven of which are quantified by isotope dilution mass spectrometry. The technique was validated using blank reagent water samples and then it was applied to measure PCBs concentration in samples collected from a river.

Furthermore, we address the modelling of system-environment interactions of biomolecules involving bosonic degrees of freedom with a digital-analog approach. Finally, we consider gate-truncated quantum algorithms to allow the study of environmental effects.

Factors that Affect the Size Distribution of Nebulized Fluid
Creators: name: Anthony, Theresa Renee
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1992

description: A test nebulizer was developed to evaluate the effect of altering nebulizer geometry and flow conditions upon the size distribution of the droplets produced. An Andersen impactor was used to collect the dried residual particles of a methylene blue dye and sodium bicarbonate solution. Residual particle mass was determined by colorimetric analysis in a spectrophotometer. Droplet size distributions were calculated from the amount of methylene blue dye collected on each impactor stage, the cut sizes of the Andersen impactor, the nebulized solution's concentration, and the residual particles' density. The effects of air velocity, liquid velocity, air nozzle diameter, and nebulizer baffle position on droplet size distribution were evaluated. Linear regression was used to develop an empirical relationship between key parameters and the mass median droplet diameter, d50, as well as d16 and d84. The model indicates that the median diameter increases from 9 to 22 μm with decreased kinetic energy loss, decreased air nozzle exit area and, surprisingly, decreased distance separating the baffle and air nozzle.

description: The structure and dynamics of membranes are crucial to ensure the proper functioning of cells. There are some compounds used in therapeutics that show nonspecific interactions with membranes in addition to their specific molecular target. Among them, two compounds recently used in therapeutics against COVID-19, remdesivir and favipiravir, were subjected to molecular dynamics simulation assays. In these, we demonstrated that the compounds can spontaneously bind to model lipid membranes in the presence or absence of cholesterol. These findings correlate with the corresponding experimental results recently reported by our group. In conclusion, insertion of the compounds into the membrane is observed, with a mean position close to the phospholipid head groups.

description: The Coastal Barrier Resources Act of 1982 provides an economic disincentive to the development of designated "undeveloped" coastal lands. By denying certain federal assistance, this law was intended to minimize the loss of human life and minimize the damage to fish, wildlife, and other natural resources associated with coastal barriers. North Topsail Beach, North Carolina is used as a case study to evaluate the effectiveness of the federal law.

description: Quantum communication with systems of dimension larger than two provides advantages in information processing tasks. Examples include higher rates of key distribution and random number generation. The main disadvantage of using such multi-dimensional quantum systems is the increased complexity of the experimental setup. Here, we analyze a not-so-obvious problem: the relation between randomness certification and computational requirements of the postprocessing of experimental data. In particular, we consider semi-device independent randomness certification from an experiment using a four dimensional quantum system to violate the classical bound of a random access code. Using state-of-the-art techniques, a smaller quantum violation requires more computational power to demonstrate randomness, which at some point becomes impossible with today's computers although the randomness is (probably) still there. We show that by dedicating more input settings of the experiment to randomness certification, then by more computational postprocessing of the experimental data which corresponds to a quantum violation, one may increase the amount of certified randomness. Furthermore, we introduce a method that significantly lowers the computational complexity of randomness certification. Our results show how more randomness can be generated without altering the hardware and indicate a path for future semi-device independent protocols to follow.

description: We propose a scheme to realize the rotation sensing using optical lattices with laser-assisted tunneling. We demonstrate that the competition between the rotation and the spin-orbit coupling governs the spin-dependent response of the cyclotron dynamics of the spin-orbit coupled bosons. The Sagnac-type cumulative phase can be read out from the envelop of a beat-frequency particle current in the spin-balanced system and enhanced by the cyclotron motion. We also theoretically show that the sensitivity limit of the spin-orbit-coupled system to the rotational motion can reach 7*10^-8 rad s^-1 Hz^1/2.
Are covered faces eye-catching for us? The impact of masks on attentional processing of self and other faces during the COVID-19 pandemic

description: During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been confronted with faces covered by surgical-like masks. This raises a question about how our brains process this kind of visual information. Thus, the aims of the current study were twofold: (1) to investigate the role of attention in the processing of different types of faces with masks, and (2) to test whether such partial information about faces is treated similarly to fully visible faces. Participants were tasked with the simple detection of self-, close-other’s, and unknown faces with and without a mask; this task relies on attentional processes. Event-related potential (ERP) findings revealed a similar impact of surgical-like masks for all faces: the amplitudes of early (P100) and late (P300, LPP) attention-related components were higher for faces with masks than for fully visible faces. Amplitudes of N170 were similar for covered and fully visible faces, and sources of brain activity were located in the fusiform gyri in both cases. Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) revealed that irrespective of whether the algorithm was trained to discriminate three types of faces either with or without masks, it was able to effectively discriminate faces that were not presented in the training phase.
Citizen Access and Use of the Toxics Release Inventory
Creators: name: Connelly, Cheryl M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1991

description: The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) is administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and consists of a national, publicly available database of chemicals emitted annually to the environment by industrial manufacturing facilities. The extent to which this database in accessible, understandable, and usable by citizen, environmental and public interest organizations is evaluated through the analysis of a nationwide questionnaire mailed to over 200 users of the TRI. This research supports the belief that the role of citizens in a right to know program is a very important one. It suggests that public interest organizations are in a position to effectively facilitate the interaction of citizens, industry and regulatory agencies, key players under the TRI program. The TRI is a powerful program, with the potential to increase and enhance citizen participation in reducing chemical substances present in the environment and in decision-making about local environmental concerns.

description: HD 142527A is one of the most studied Herbig Ae/Be stars with a transitional disk, as it has the largest imaged gap in any protoplanetary disk: the gas is cleared from 30 to 90 AU. The HD142527 system is also unique in that it has a stellar companion with a small mass compared to the mass of the primary star. This factor of ~20 in mass ratio between the two objects makes this binary system different from any other YSO. The HD142527 system could therefore provide a valuable test bed. This low-mass stellar object may be responsible for both the gap and dust trapping observed by ALMA at longer distances. We observed this system with the NACO and GPI instruments using the aperture masking technique. Aperture masking is ideal for providing high dynamic range even at very small angular separations. We present the spectral energy distribution for HD142527A and B. Brightness of the companion is now known from the R band up to the M' band. We also followed the orbital motion of HD 142527B over a period of more than two years. The SED of the companion is compatible with a T=3000+/-100K object in addition to a 1700K blackbody environment (likely a circus-secondary disk). From evolution models, we find that it is compatible with an object of mass 0.13+/-0.03Msun, radius 0.90+/-0.15Rsun, and age $1.0^{+1.0}_{-0.75}$Myr. This age is significantly younger than the age previously estimated for HD142527A. Computations to constrain the orbital parameters found a semi major axis of $140^{+120}_{-70}$mas, an eccentricity of 0.5+/-0.2, an inclination of 125+/-15 degrees, and a position angle of the right ascending node of -5+/-40 degrees. Inclination and position angle of the ascending node are in agreement with an orbit coplanar with the inner disk, not coplanar with the outer disk. Despite its high eccentricity, it is unlikely that HD142527B is responsible for truncating the inner edge of the outer disk.
