description: Phase recovery of modified spectrograms is a major issue in audio signal processing applications, such as source separation. This paper introduces a novel technique for estimating the phases of components in complex mixtures within onset frames in the Time-Frequency (TF) domain. We propose to exploit the phase repetitions from one onset frame to another. We introduce a reference phase which characterizes a component independently of its activation times. The onset phases of a component are then modeled as the sum of this reference and an offset which is linearly dependent on the frequency. We derive a complex mixture model within onset frames and we provide two algorithms for the estimation of the model phase parameters. The model is estimated on experimental data and this technique is integrated into an audio source separation framework. The results demonstrate that this model is a promising tool for exploiting phase repetitions, and point out its potential for separating overlapping components in complex mixtures.

Οι ψηφιακές βιβλιοθήκες έχει αποδειχθεί ότι έχουν θετικό αντίκτυπο στην εκπαίδευση και την ανεξάρτητη μάθηση, καθώς παρέχουν εύκολη πρόσβαση σε ποιοτικούς πόρους μάθησης. Η έρευνα πραγματοποιήθηκε με ποιοτική μέθοδο, καθώς γίνεται βιβλιογραφική ανασκόπηση της σύγχρονης ξένης και ελληνικής βιβλιογραφίας, εστιάζοντας στην τεχνολογική εξέλιξη και τη διαχείριση των δεδομένων από τις βιβλιοθήκες. Επίσης, αναλύονται τα δεδομένα που συλλέχθηκαν από τις επίσημες ιστοσελίδες των παγκόσμιων και εγχώριων βιβλιοθηκών, εστιάζοντας στις νέες υπηρεσίες που προσφέρονται και την προσέγγιση του κοινού μέσω διαδικτυακών πλατφορμών. Ολοκληρώνοντας, η έρευνα εστιάζει στην ανάπτυξη νέων υπηρεσιών και την προσαρμογή των βιβλιοθηκών στις ανάγκες της ψηφιακής εποχής. Παραδείγματα αυτών των υπηρεσιών περιλαμβάνουν την πρόσβαση σε ψηφιακά βιβλία, ηλεκτρονικά άρθρα και άλλους ψηφιακούς πόρους. Ακόμα, διευκολύνεται η εξ αποστάσεως πρόσβαση του κοινού σε βιβλιοθηκονομικές υπηρεσίε για την παροχή βοήθειας και συμβουλών στους χρήστες, καθώς και η ανάπτυξη εκπαιδευτικών προγραμμάτων και δραστηριοτήτων που προωθούν την παιδαγωγική και επιμορφωτική αξία των βιβλιοθηκών. Οι ψηφιακές βιβλιοθήκες έχουν, επίσης, ανοίξει τον δρόμο για τη διεθνή συνεργασία μεταξύ αυτών αλλά και τη δημιουργία ψηφιακών κοινοτήτων, όπου οι χρήστες μπορούν να ανταλλάσσουν γνώσεις, να συνεργάζονται και να συμμετέχουν σε διάφορες δραστηριότητες μάθησης. Η συνεχής εξέλιξη της τεχνολογίας, αποτελεί πρόκληση για τις βιβλιοθήκες, καθώς αναγκάζονται να προσαρμόζονται και να αναπτύσσονται διαρκώς για να παραμείνουν σύγχρονες και χρήσιμες για την κοινωνία. Οι παραδοσιακές βιβλιοθήκες αντιμετωπίζουν συνεχώς νέες προκλήσεις και ευκαιρίες, προσαρμόζοντας τις υπηρεσίες τους και παρέχοντας πρόσβαση σε ψηφιακό περιεχόμενο. Με αυτόν τον τρόπο, συνεχίζουν να προωθούν τη γνώση, την εκπαίδευση και την προσβασιμότητα στην πληροφορία σε όλους τους πολίτες. Συνοψίζοντας, οι βιβλιοθήκες προσφέρουν έναν πολύτιμο πολιτιστικό πόρο και αποτελούν ζωτικό μέρος της εκπαιδευτικής, επιστημονικής και κοινωνικής υποδομής μιας κοινωνίας.

description: Abnormal gastric motility function could be related to gastric electrical uncoupling, the lack of electrical, and respectively mechanical, synchronization in different regions of the stomach. Therefore, non-invasive detection of the onset of gastric electrical uncoupling can be important for diagnosing associated gastric motility disorders. The aim of this study is to provide a wavelet-based analysis of electrogastrograms (EGG, the cutaneous recordings of gastric electric activity), to detect gastric electric uncoupling. Eight-channel EGG recordings were acquired from sixteen dogs in basal state and after each of two circular gastric myotomies. These myotomies simulated mild and severe gastric electrical uncoupling, while keeping the separated gastric sections electrophysiologically active by preserving their blood supply. After visual inspection, manually selected 10-minute EGG segments were submitted to wavelet analysis. Quantitative methodology to choose an optimal wavelet was derived. This "matching" wavelet was determined using the Pollen parameterization for 6-tap wavelet filters and error minimization criteria. After a wavelet-based compression, the distortion of the approximated EGG signals was computed. Statistical analysis on the distortion values allowed to significantly ($p<0.05$) distinguish basal state from mild and severe gastric electrical uncoupling groups in particular EGG channels.

description: Query-based systems (QBSs) are one of the key approaches for sharing data. QBSs allow analysts to request aggregate information from a private protected dataset. Attacks are a crucial part of ensuring QBSs are truly privacy-preserving. The development and testing of attacks is however very labor-intensive and unable to cope with the increasing complexity of systems. Automated approaches have been shown to be promising but are currently extremely computationally intensive, limiting their applicability in practice. We here propose QueryCheetah, a fast and effective method for automated discovery of privacy attacks against QBSs. We instantiate QueryCheetah on attribute inference attacks and show it to discover stronger attacks than previous methods while being 18 times faster than the state-of-the-art automated approach. We then show how QueryCheetah allows system developers to thoroughly evaluate the privacy risk, including for various attacker strengths and target individuals. We finally show how QueryCheetah can be used out-of-the-box to find attacks in larger syntaxes and workarounds around ad-hoc defenses.

description: Food security, land degradation, climate change, and a growing population are interconnected challenges and key issues for sustainable agriculture. In this context, the Digital Twin (DT) is uniquely positioned to overcome these challenges and support the goals of sustainability. Through the use of state-of-the-art technologies, increased information availability can empower stakeholders to pursue sustainable objectives and production methods. However, if these benefits are to be fully leveraged, the potential negative technical and social–ecological effects of the technology must be assessed and mitigated. Therefore, an exploratory review is conducted, outlining the progress of current examples toward the aims of sustainable agriculture. Additionally, the social–ecological and technological dangers of the concept are investigated, culminating in a high-level roadmap that highlights necessary milestones required to support the open and sustainable development of DTs in agriculture.

description: Recently, Merca and Schmidt found some decompositions for the partition function $p(n)$ in terms of the classical Möbius function as well as Euler's totient. In this paper, we define a counting function $T_k^r(m)$ on the set of $n$-color partitions of $m$ for given positive integers $k, r$ and relate the function with the $n$-color partition function and other well-known arithmetic functions like the Möbius function, Liouville function, etc. and their divisor sums. Furthermore, we use a counting method of Erdös to obtain some counting theorems for $n$-color partitions that are analogous to those found by Andrews and Deutsch for the partition function.

description: Die Steatosis hepatis bzw. Verfettung von Hepatozyten kann durch verschiedene Ursachen ausgelöst werden, wobei eine hyperkalorische Ernährung und ein gestörter Metabolismus zu den häufigsten Ursachen zählen. Sofern kein signifikanter Alkoholkonsum vorliegt (pro Tag <20g bei Frauen bzw. <30g bei Männern) und weitere sekundäre Ursachen (z.B. Autoimmunhepatitis (AIH), Primär biliäre Cholangitis (PBC) etc.) ausgeschlossen werden können, spricht man von einer nicht-alkoholischen Fettlebererkrankung (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD). Die Überladung von Hepatozyten mit Fettsäuren (FS) und weiteren Metaboliten führt zu chronischen, sterilen Entzündungsreaktionen, welche in der internationalen Literatur auch als „metaflammation“ beschrieben werden. Die hierdurch progressive Verlaufsform der NAFLD wird als nicht-alkoholische Steatohepatitis (NASH) bezeichnet und kann durch bindegewebige Transformation des Leberparenchyms in einer Leberfibrose bzw. im Endstadium sogar in einer Leberzirrhose münden, welche durch einen zunehmenden Funktionsverlust gekennzeichnet ist. Bereits die NASH und Leberfibrose, aber insbesondere die Leberzirrhose ist mit dem Auftreten des hepatozellulären Karzinoms (HCC) assoziiert. Während die NASH und Leberfibrose als reversibel betrachtet werden, ist die (dekompensierte) Leberzirrhose nicht mehr umkehrbar. Basierend auf den zugrundeliegenden Pathomechanismen und Begleiterkrankungen wie Typ-2-Diabetes mellitus, Adipositas, arterielle Hypertonie oder auch das metabolische Syndrom werden im internationalen Kontext weitere Begriffsdefinitionen wie „metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease“ (MAFLD) diskutiert, ohne sich jedoch einheitlich durchgesetzt zu haben.

description: Chitin is one of the most abundant biomaterials in nature, with 10^10 tons produced annually as hierarchically organized nanofibril fillers to reinforce the exoskeletons of arthropods. This green and cheap biomaterial has attracted great attention due to its potential application to reinforce biomedical materials. Despite that, its practical use is limited since the extraction of chitin nanofibrils requires surface modification involving harsh chemical treatments, leading to difficulties in reproducing their natural prototypal hierarchical structure, i.e. chiral nematic phase. Here, we develop a chemical etching-free approach using calcium ions, called natural way, to disintegrate the chitin nanofibrils while keeping the essential moiety for the self-assembly, ultimately resulting in the reproduction of chitins natural chiral structure in a polymeric matrix. This chiral chitin nanostructure exceptionally toughens the composite. Our resultant chiral nematic phase of chitin materials can contribute to the understanding and use of the reinforcing strategy in nature.

description: Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a powerful tool for decomposing mixtures of audio signals in the Time-Frequency (TF) domain. In applications such as source separation, the phase recovery for each extracted component is a major issue since it often leads to audible artifacts. In this paper, we present a methodology for evaluating various NMF-based source separation techniques involving phase reconstruction. For each model considered, a comparison between two approaches (blind separation without prior information and oracle separation with supervised model learning) is performed, in order to inquire about the room for improvement for the estimation methods. Experimental results show that the High Resolution NMF (HRNMF) model is particularly promising, because it is able to take phases and correlations over time into account with a great expressive power.

description: Biological functions rely on ordered structures and intricately controlled collective dynamics. In contrast to systems in thermodynamic equilibrium, order is typically established and sustained in stationary states by continuous dissipation of energy. Non-equilibrium dynamics is a necessary condition to make the systems highly susceptible to signals that cause transitions between different states. How cellular processes self-organize under this general principle is not fully understood. Here, we find that model actomyosin cortices, in the presence of rapid turnover, display distinct steady states, each distinguished by characteristic order and dynamics as a function of network connectivity. The different states arise from a subtle interaction between mechanical percolation of the actin network and myosin-generated stresses. Remarkably, myosin motors generate actin architectures, which in turn, force the emergence of ordered stress patterns. Reminiscent of second order phase transitions, the emergence of order is accompanied by a critical regime characterized by strongly enhanced strain fluctuations. The striking dynamics in the critical regime were revealed using fluorescent single-walled carbon nanotubes as novel probes of cortical dynamics.

description: The search for biosignatures in potentially habitable exoplanets is one of the major astrophysics' drivers for the coming decades, and the prime science goal of the HWO NASA mission, a large UV-Optical-IR space telescope to be launched in the 2040s. To reach this goal, it will be equipped with state-of-the-art high-contrast spectro-imaging capabilities enabling the detection of exoplanets 10^10 times fainter than their host stars, a formidable challenge given today's best detection limits at ~10^-6 contrast levels. This goal puts stringent constraints on the entire observatory, and demands the optimization at the system level to leverage the performance of individual sub-systems. However, while image processing techniques are a key asset to reach the ultimate performance, the science and technological definition of the mission concepts mostly rely on the coronagraph and wavefront control to reject the starlight, assuming a conservative gain of ~10 in sensitivity from image processing, extrapolated from performance obtained with classical techniques on Hubble observations. In the ESCAPE project, we investigate integrated solutions for optimizing the observing methods and data processing techniques with future space telescopes, making use of their wavefront sensors and deformable mirrors. The Roman Space Telescope, scheduled for launch in 2026, will be a critical milestone to demonstrate key technologies ahead of HWO with the Coronagraph instrument, and is thus a unique opportunity to also test and validate innovative image processing techniques. Here we present the rational, methodology, and timeline of the ESCAPE project.

description: Recently, Jha (arXiv:2007.04243, arXiv:2011.11038) has found identities that connect certain sums over the divisors of $n$ to the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of squares and triangular numbers. In this note, we state a generalized result that gives such relations for $s$-gonal numbers for any integer $s\geq3$.

description: We show $\ell^p\big(\mathbb Z^d\big)$ boundedness, for $p\in(1, \infty)$, of discrete singular integrals of Radon type with the aid of appropriate square function estimates, which can be thought as a discrete counterpart of the Littlewood--Paley theory. It is a very powerful approach which allows us to proceed as in the continuous case.

description: For the spectral analysis of high-resolution and high-signal-to-noise (S/N) spectra of hot stars, state-of-the-art non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) model atmospheres are mandatory. These are strongly dependent on the reliability of the atomic data that is used for their calculation. To identify molybdenum lines in the ultraviolet (UV) spectra of the DA-type white dwarf G191-B2B and the DO-type white dwarf RE0503-289 and to determine their photospheric Mo abundances, newly calculated Mo IV - VII oscillator strengths are used. We identified twelve Mo V and nine Mo VI lines in the UV spectrum of RE0503-289 and measured a photospheric Mo abundance of 1.2 - 3.0 x 10**-4 (mass fraction, 22500 - 56400 times the solar abundance). In addition, from the As V and Sn IV resonance lines, we measured mass fractions of arsenic (0.5 - 1.3 x 10**-5, about 300 - 1200 times solar) and tin (1.3 - 3.2 x 10**-4, about 14300 35200 times solar). For G191-B2B, upper limits were determined for the abundances of Mo (5.3 x 10**-7, 100 times solar) and, in addition, for Kr (1.1 x 10**-6, 10 times solar) and Xe (1.7 x 10**-7, 10 times solar). The arsenic abundance was determined (2.3 - 5.9 x 10**-7, about 21 - 53 times solar). A new, registered German Astrophysical Virtual Observatory (GAVO) service, TOSS, has been constructed to provide weighted oscillator strengths and transition probabilities. Reliable measurements and calculations of atomic data are a prerequisite for stellar-atmosphere modeling. Observed Mo V - VI line profiles in the UV spectrum of the white dwarf RE0503-289 were well reproduced with our newly calculated oscillator strengths. For the first time, this allowed to determine the photospheric Mo abundance in a white dwarf.

description: Investigations have been performed into using clustering methods in data mining time-series data from smart meters. The problem is to identify patterns and trends in energy usage profiles of commercial and industrial customers over 24-hour periods, and group similar profiles. We tested our method on energy usage data provided by several U.S. power utilities. The results show accurate grouping of accounts similar in their energy usage patterns, and potential for the method to be utilized in energy efficiency programs.

description: We study the production line shape of $B^\ast\bar B$ near threshold, where the $B^\ast \bar B$ pair comes from the resonance $X_b$. Our study shows that the line shape depends sensitively on the binding energy and the probability of finding an elementary state in the physical bound state. Both of the two parameters are crucial to identify the structure of $X_b$. Therefore, the line shape measurement can shed light on the structure of $X_b$.

Infinitesimal groupoids and quotient spaces
Creators: name: Bongiorno, Federico
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2023

description: This dissertation develops a theory of infinitesimal groupoids in algebraic geometry, a natural generalisation of algebraic foliations to the singular or positive characteristic case. Three applications are presented thereafter. The first one is a criterion to establish when the quotient of a scheme by a smooth connected equivalence relation is a scheme. The second one establishes finite generation of the invariant sections of a smooth groupoid in some special cases. The third one concerns a strategy to approximate formal solutions of differential equations by solutions on étale neighbourhoods.

Structural and mechanistic insights into pore formation by proteins of the membrane attack complex/perforin superfamily
Creators: name: Voisin, Tomas B.
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2022

description: Members of the membrane attack complex/perforin (MACPF) superfamily of pore-forming proteins are characterised by a common three-dimensional fold able to puncture lipid membranes. They are found in bacterial and eukaryotes, and include immune effectors, toxins and pathogenic virulence factors. Their conserved pore-forming domain follows the same mechanism whereby two bundles of α-helices unfurl into membrane-spanning β-hairpins. This thesis provides insights into the effects of MACPF proteins on biological membranes. Coarse-grain molecular dynamics simulations of the membrane attack complex (MAC) bound to its inhibitor CD59 reveal protein-lipid interactions and local changes in membrane thickness. These may serve as signals to recruit CD59 or the molecular machinery for MAC clearance. Some bacterial MACPF proteins called cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs) hijack CD59 on human cells as part of their pore formation pathway. Atomistic simulations of CD59 in a lipid bilayer show that it samples various orientations relative to the membrane, dictating whether its binding site is available for engaging MAC or CDCs, and thus for inhibiting or promoting pore formation. CDCs assemble on cholesterol-rich lipid membranes and undergo sequential conformational changes to puncture bilayers. Site-directed mutagenesis of two CDCs reveals that an amphipathic helix in the pore-forming helical bundles is responsible for tuning the lytic activity of these proteins. Understanding the molecular basis for the function of this helix will require the high-resolution structure of a CDC late prepore intermediate. The first steps towards solving this structure by cryo-electron microscopy are presented in this thesis.
Multi-Subregion Based Correlation Filter Bank for Robust Face Recognition

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (cs.CV)

description: In this paper, we propose an effective feature extraction algorithm, called Multi-Subregion based Correlation Filter Bank (MS-CFB), for robust face recognition. MS-CFB combines the benefits of global-based and local-based feature extraction algorithms, where multiple correlation filters correspond- ing to different face subregions are jointly designed to optimize the overall correlation outputs. Furthermore, we reduce the computational complexi- ty of MS-CFB by designing the correlation filter bank in the spatial domain and improve its generalization capability by capitalizing on the unconstrained form during the filter bank design process. MS-CFB not only takes the d- ifferences among face subregions into account, but also effectively exploits the discriminative information in face subregions. Experimental results on various public face databases demonstrate that the proposed algorithm pro- vides a better feature representation for classification and achieves higher recognition rates compared with several state-of-the-art algorithms.
