description: Two coordination complexes based on H4btec and H2bibzim (H4btec = 1,2,3,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, H2bibzim = 2,2′-bibenzimidazole), [Ni(H2bibzim)3]2(btec) (1) and [Zn(H2bibzim)(btec)0.5]n (2), have been synthesized by hydrothermal methods and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 is composed of [Ni(H2bibzim)3]2+ with free btec4− as counter anion. In 2, the btec4− ligands bridge the Zn(II) ions into a 1-D chain with H2bibzim as auxiliary chelating ligands. Interesting supramolecular structures were demonstrated due to the existence of hydrogen bonding as well as π⋯π interactions in the two different complexes. The H2bibzim ligands act as a 2-connected spacer in both complexes. However, in 1, the [Ni(H2bibzim)3]2+ cations act as 3-connected nodes, hydrogen bonded with the 6-connected btec4− ligands into a 3-D framework with (3,6)-connected topology Schläfli symbol as (4.6.8)(42.6)(43.64.87.10). As for 2, Zn serves as a 3-connected node with btec4− as a 6-connected node, leading to a 2D (3,6)-connected hydrogen bonding kgd topology sheet with Schläfli symbol of (43)2(46.66.83). Thermal stabilities and photoluminescent properties of 1 and 2 were also studied.

description: "Andrew Riemer's latest memoir, Sandstone Gothic, is an infuriating book. Throughout, Riemer portrays himself as a passive protagonist against whom events have conspired. His tone is sour, embittered and resentful as he describes the misfortunes he endured in becoming an 'accidental academic'. The resulting book is an agonising, protracted document of self-justification."

description: A rapid method had been used for comparative study on Artemisia halodendron Turcz. and its two related plants by gas phase-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The comparison of the volatile oils obtained in three plants by GC-MS were similar in 20 compositions. However, n-Hexadecanoic acid (10.40%), Biphenyl (7.867%) and 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid (7.25%) were the predominant in the volatile oils of A. halodendron Turcz., whereas these constituents did not exist in the other two plants. And the study investigated the effect of three plants against CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity in mice. 70% ethanol extracts of A. halodendron Turcz. showed weaker protective effect than the other two plants. It suggested that they provide a basis for the identification of the A. halodendron Turcz. from the other two plants and the ethanol extract from three plants exerted a protecting effect against hepatotoxicity.

description: It is often assumed that issue advocacy will compromise the credibility of scientists. We conducted a randomized controlled experiment to test public reactions to six different advocacy statements made by a scientist—ranging from a purely informational statement to an endorsement of specific policies. We found that perceived credibility of the communicating scientist was uniformly high in five of the six message conditions, suffering only when he advocated for a specific policy—building more nuclear power plants (although credibility did not suffer when advocating for a different specific policy—carbon dioxide limits at power plants). We also found no significant differences in trust in the broader climate science community between the six message conditions. Our results suggest that climate scientists who wish to engage in certain forms of advocacy have considerable latitude to do so without risking harm to their credibility, or the credibility of the scientific community.

description: Arsenite is a toxic metalloid that may increase the risk of Parkinson’s disease by inducing dopaminergic neuronal apoptosis. Luteolin, a common dietary flavonoid, possesses variety of biological functions, but potential effects of luteolin on arsenite toxicity remain elusive. In this study, we demonstrated that luteolin prevented arsenite-induced apoptosis in the dopaminergic PC12 cells. Administration of luteolin to cells attenuated arsenite-induced ROS production, enhanced caspase-3 activity and γ-H2AX expression. Our results further showed the expression of α-Synuclein (α-Syn) was significantly increased in arsenite-treated cells, but co-treatment with luteolin reversed the expression of α-Syn back toward normal level. Inhibition of α-Syn by siRNA remarkably enhanced the beneficial effect of luteolin against arsenite-induced apoptotic cell death. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the ameliorative effects of luteolin against arsenite in the dopaminergic cell may be modulated by α-Syn, and indicating that luteolin may be developed as a chemopreventive supplementary agent to ameliorate dopaminergic cell apoptosis resulting from arsenite exposure.

description: The aim of this study was to compare soil bacterial communities in the Great Xing’an Mountains that represent three dominant vegetation types (Quercus mongolica forest, shrub mixed with herb and grassland). Soil bacterial communities were analyzed by both culture-dependent physiological profiling (Biolog) and culture-independent DNA-based approaches. The Q. mongolica forest and shrub mixed with herb had higher average well color development than the grassland, and the Q. mongolica forest and shrub mixed with herb soil bacterial communities easily utilized miscellaneous and amines/amides. The bacterial community structure was distinct across the three sites. Most of Acidobacteria, Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes were found in grassland soil, while Firmicutes was present at a higher percentage in the Q. mongolica soil. Extracellular enzyme assays indicated that the soil ecosystem in the grassland experienced altered N and P nutrient cycling dynamics. pH, available phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen were important in shaping bacterial community structure. These results suggest that vegetation type was a strong determinant of the structure and function of bacterial communities, which may subsequently lead to significant changes in ecosystem functioning.

description: The Orthogonal Watchman Route Problem (OWRP) entails the search for the shortest path, known as the watchman route, that a robot must follow within a polygonal environment. The primary objective is to ensure that every point in the environment remains visible from at least one point on the route, allowing the robot to survey the entire area in a single, continuous sweep. This research places particular emphasis on reducing the number of turns in the route, as it is crucial for optimizing navigation in watchman routes within the field of robotics. The cost associated with changing direction is of significant importance, especially for specific types of robots. This paper introduces an efficient linear-time algorithm for solving the OWRP under the assumption that the environment is monotone. The findings of this study contribute to the progress of robotic systems by enabling the design of more streamlined patrol robots. These robots are capable of efficiently navigating complex environments while minimizing the number of turns. This advancement enhances their coverage and surveillance capabilities, making them highly effective in various real-world applications.

Dewey's notion of intelligent habit as a basis for ethical assessment of new technologies

description: This is a presentation of my WIP paper on Dewey's idea of habits and technology ethics, delivered on 8 April 2022 during the Näckrosen seminar at the University of Gothenburg. See abstract below: In this talk, I discuss how John Dewey’s notion of intelligent habit could contribute to technology ethics. For Dewey, habits encompass more than the routine and often unconscious patterns of behavior. They are a fundamental part of our selves and shape all our experiences, thoughts, and actions. He argues that intelligent (i.e., desirable) habits are reflective – arising from inquiry into the appropriate courses of action in each situation – and flexible – easily adaptable to the changing circumstances. We should strive to develop intelligent habits as they are the best tools for the achievement of our goals and are necessary for individual and societal flourishing. Dewey developed an original view of technology by claiming that its role is the production of new habits and circumstances, often in unanticipated ways. I argue that this provides a good foundation for the identification and evaluation of habits produced by particular technologies, as well as prescription of changes to their use and development that would improve the reflectivity and flexibility of the habits they produce. As I demonstrate, this approach can identify ethical aspects of technology that cannot be discussed with the help of other approaches in contemporary philosophy of technology (e.g., postphenomenology, virtue ethics, deontology).

description: The overall goal of WP2 in the FarFish project is to "advance knowledge and collate data related to biological characteristics of the main fish stocks in the selected fisheries, and to evaluate the appropriateness, relevance and applicability of stock assessment models currently in use for these fisheries", as presented in the project description (DoA).
 Task 2.2 and deliverable 2.2 contributes towards these goals by creating a "Data Management Plan" (DMP), in accordance with the Horizon 2020 Open Research Data Pilot. The DMP was initially developed in the first months of the project and was first published in month six (November 2017) of the project. The DMP has been regularly updated during the lifetime of the project and this is the fifth, and final (revised), version. The DMP contains 47 forms detailing the content of all datasets used within FarFish, how it will be preserved, and steps taken to make data publically available after the project end.

description: Characteristics of particle adhesion (deposition) patterns in an aerodynamic cyclone were studied by both experimental methods and computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulation methods. The cyclone used in the experiment was made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). The particles were a plaster material, with an average size of 1.13 μm and a density of 2300 kg/m3. Four levels of particle load rates were examined, ranging from 0.28 g/m3 to 0.96 g/m3 at a fixed mass flow rate of 2.1 g/s. Experimental results showed three key features of particle adhesion patterns. They are large-scale spiral patterns (SPs), small-scale wave patterns (WPs), and thick adhesion layer (TAL) at the cyclone tip region. It was observed that the SPs had five turns and the WPs were periodic discrete patterns that crept slowly against the flow direction. The formation of WPs was explained based on the Barchan sand dune mechanism. Under zero particle load rate, six different mass flow rates ranging from 1.24 g/s to 3.16 g/s were simulated using CFD. It was found that the precessional bent vortex end (PBVE), precessing along the circumference of the cyclone tip, occurred close to the cyclone tip. The PBVE was believed to be the cause of the TAL, because there was a weak wall shear stress region below the PBVE. In addition, particle trajectories were simulated at a mass flow rate of 2.26 g/s. Simulation results showed that particles had spiral trajectories that were supposed to be linked with the SPs. Copyright © 2017 American Association for Aerosol Research

description: Recently, perception task based on Bird's-Eye View (BEV) representation has drawn more and more attention, and BEV representation is promising as the foundation for next-generation Autonomous Vehicle (AV) perception. However, most existing BEV solutions either require considerable resources to execute on-vehicle inference or suffer from modest performance. This paper proposes a simple yet effective framework, termed Fast-BEV , which is capable of performing faster BEV perception on the on-vehicle chips. Towards this goal, we first empirically find that the BEV representation can be sufficiently powerful without expensive transformer based transformation nor depth representation. Our Fast-BEV consists of five parts, We novelly propose (1) a lightweight deployment-friendly view transformation which fast transfers 2D image feature to 3D voxel space, (2) an multi-scale image encoder which leverages multi-scale information for better performance, (3) an efficient BEV encoder which is particularly designed to speed up on-vehicle inference. We further introduce (4) a strong data augmentation strategy for both image and BEV space to avoid over-fitting, (5) a multi-frame feature fusion mechanism to leverage the temporal information. Through experiments, on 2080Ti platform, our R50 model can run 52.6 FPS with 47.3% NDS on the nuScenes validation set, exceeding the 41.3 FPS and 47.5% NDS of the BEVDepth-R50 model and 30.2 FPS and 45.7% NDS of the BEVDet4D-R50 model. Our largest model (R101@900x1600) establishes a competitive 53.5% NDS on the nuScenes validation set. We further develop a benchmark with considerable accuracy and efficiency on current popular on-vehicle chips. The code is released at: https://github.com/Sense-GVT/Fast-BEV.

description: We consider the dichotomy conjecture for consistent query answering under primary key constraints. It states that, for every fixed Boolean conjunctive query q, testing whether q is certain (i.e. whether it evaluates to true over all repairs of a given inconsistent database) is either polynomial time or coNP-complete. This conjecture has been verified for self-join-free and path queries. We show that it also holds for queries with two atoms.
Asymmetric Drift Map of the Milky Way disk Populations between 8$-$16 kpc with LAMOST and Gaia datasets

description: The application of asymmetric drift (AD) tomography across different populations provides valuable insights into the kinematics, dynamics, and rotation curves of the Galactic disk. By leveraging common stars identified in both the LAMOST and Gaia surveys, alongside Gaia DR3's circular velocity curve, we conducted a qualitative exploration of asymmetric drift distributions within the Galactic disk spanning distances from 8 to 16 kpc. In the R-Z plane, we observed that the asymmetric drift is minimal near the mid-plane of the Galactic disk and gradually increases with vertical distance, resulting in a distinctive ``horn" shape. Additionally, our analysis revealed that populations with higher [$α$/Fe] ratios exhibit greater asymmetric drift compared to those with lower [$α$/Fe] ratios. Specifically, we found the asymmetric drift around the solar location to be approximately 6 km s$^{-1}$, with a median value of 16 km s$^{-1}$ across the entire sample. Notably, the median asymmetric drift in the northern region of the Galactic disk (20 km s$^{-1}$) surpasses that in the southern region (13 km s$^{-1}$), with errors remaining within 2 km s$^{-1}$. Furthermore, our investigation into mono-age stellar populations unveiled that older stellar populations tend to exhibit larger asymmetric drift and velocity dispersion, aligning closely with predictions from previous numerical models. Finally, based on chemical compositions, we observed that the median asymmetric drift of the thick disk significantly exceeds that of the thin disk and found that star formation within the thick disk primarily occurred earlier than 8-10 billion years, whereas the thin disk's predominant star formation period spanned 6-8 billion years ago.

description: Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) aims to uncover the decision-making processes of AI models. However, the data used for such explanations can pose security and privacy risks. Existing literature identifies attacks on machine learning models, including membership inference, model inversion, and model extraction attacks. These attacks target either the model or the training data, depending on the settings and parties involved.
 XAI tools can increase the vulnerability of model extraction attacks, which is a concern when model owners prefer black-box access, thereby keeping model parameters and architecture private. To exploit this risk, we propose AUTOLYCUS, a novel retraining (learning) based model extraction attack framework against interpretable models under black-box settings. As XAI tools, we exploit Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME) and Shapley values (SHAP) to infer decision boundaries and create surrogate models that replicate the functionality of the target model. LIME and SHAP are mainly chosen for their realistic yet information-rich explanations, coupled with their extensive adoption, simplicity, and usability.
 We evaluate AUTOLYCUS on six machine learning datasets, measuring the accuracy and similarity of the surrogate model to the target model. The results show that AUTOLYCUS is highly effective, requiring significantly fewer queries compared to state-of-the-art attacks, while maintaining comparable accuracy and similarity. We validate its performance and transferability on multiple interpretable ML models, including decision trees, logistic regression, naive bayes, and k-nearest neighbor. Additionally, we show the resilience of AUTOLYCUS against proposed countermeasures.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The Mapper of the IGM Spin Temperature (MIST) is a new ground-based, single-antenna, radio experiment attempting to detect the global 21 cm signal from the Dark Ages and Cosmic Dawn. A significant challenge in this measurement is the frequency-dependence, or chromaticity, of the antenna beam directivity. MIST observes with the antenna above the soil and without a metal ground plane, and the beam directivity is sensitive to the electrical characteristics of the soil. In this paper, we use simulated observations with MIST to study how the detection of the global 21 cm signal from Cosmic Dawn is affected by the soil and the MIST beam directivity. We simulate observations using electromagnetic models of the directivity computed for single- and two-layer models of the soil. We test the recovery of the Cosmic Dawn signal with and without beam chromaticity correction applied to the simulated data. We find that our single-layer soil models enable a straightforward recovery of the signal even without chromaticity correction. Two-layer models increase the beam chromaticity and make the recovery more challenging. However, for the model in which the bottom soil layer has a lower electrical conductivity than the top layer, the signal can be recovered even without chromaticity correction. For the other two-layer models, chromaticity correction is necessary for the recovery of the signal and the accuracy requirements for the soil parameters vary between models. These results will be used as a guideline to select observation sites that are favorable for the detection of the Cosmic Dawn signal.

description: The upcoming Simons Observatory Small Aperture Telescopes aim at achieving a constraint on the primordial tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ at the level of $σ(r=0)\lesssim0.003$, observing the polarized CMB in the presence of partial sky coverage, cosmic variance, inhomogeneous non-white noise, and Galactic foregrounds. We present three different analysis pipelines able to constrain $r$ given the latest available instrument performance, and compare their predictions on a set of sky simulations that allow us to explore a number of Galactic foreground models and elements of instrumental noise, relevant for the Simons Observatory. The three pipelines employ different combinations of parametric and non-parametric component separation at the map and power spectrum levels, and use B-mode purification to estimate the CMB B-mode power spectrum. We applied them to a common set of simulated realistic frequency maps, and compared and validated them with focus on their ability to extract robust constraints on the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$. We evaluated their performance in terms of bias and statistical uncertainty on this parameter. In most of the scenarios the three methodologies achieve similar performance. Nevertheless, several simulations with complex foreground signals lead to a $>2σ$ bias on $r$ if analyzed with the default versions of these pipelines, highlighting the need for more sophisticated pipeline components that marginalize over foreground residuals. We show two such extensions, using power-spectrum-based and map-based methods, that are able to fully reduce the bias on $r$ below the statistical uncertainties in all foreground models explored, at a moderate cost in terms of $σ(r)$.
