description: Reducing sensor requirements while keeping optimal control performance is crucial to many industrial control applications to achieve robust, low-cost, and computation-efficient controllers. However, existing feature selection solutions for the typical machine learning domain can hardly be applied in the domain of control with changing dynamics. In this paper, a novel framework, namely the Dual-world embedded Attentive Feature Selection (D-AFS), can efficiently select the most relevant sensors for the system under dynamic control. Rather than the one world used in most Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) algorithms, D-AFS has both the real world and its virtual peer with twisted features. By analyzing the DRL's response in two worlds, D-AFS can quantitatively identify respective features' importance towards control. A well-known active flow control problem, cylinder drag reduction, is used for evaluation. Results show that D-AFS successfully finds an optimized five-probes layout with 18.7\% drag reduction than the state-of-the-art solution with 151 probes and 49.2\% reduction than five-probes layout by human experts. We also apply this solution to four OpenAI classical control cases. In all cases, D-AFS achieves the same or better sensor configurations than originally provided solutions. Results highlight, we argued, a new way to achieve efficient and optimal sensor designs for experimental or industrial systems.

description: Artificial intelligence is already being applied in and impacting many important sectors in society, including healthcare, finance, and policing. These applications will increase as AI capabilities continue to progress, which has the potential to be highly beneficial for society, or to cause serious harm. The role of AI governance is ultimately to take practical steps to mitigate this risk of harm while enabling the benefits of innovation in AI. This requires answering challenging empirical questions about current and potential risks and benefits of AI: assessing impacts that are often widely distributed and indirect, and making predictions about a highly uncertain future. It also requires thinking through the normative question of what beneficial use of AI in society looks like, which is equally challenging. Though different groups may agree on high-level principles that uses of AI should respect (e.g., privacy, fairness, and autonomy), challenges arise when putting these principles into practice. For example, it is straightforward to say that AI systems must protect individual privacy, but there is presumably some amount or type of privacy that most people would be willing to give up to develop life-saving medical treatments. Despite these challenges, research can and has made progress on these questions. The aim of this chapter will be to give readers an understanding of this progress, and of the challenges that remain.

description: Aragonite and high-Mg calcite are abundant in modern, neritic temperate water systems but are nearly absent from their fossil counterparts. Dissolution of these metastable mineral phases will often leave no visible trace in the sedimentary record. Furthermore, it has been proposed that dolomitization is driven by reflux of mesohaline, aragonite undersaturated waters and that dolomite crystal growth is tightly coupled to aragonite dissolution in a temperate carbonate slope system. This study aims to clarify the processes responsible for this aragonite loss and associated dolomite formation in temperate carbonates. Biomarkers and microscopic techniques in combination with pore water analysis are used to investigate sediment cores from IODP Site U1460 on the outer ramp of the western Australian Shelf. It is shown that synsedimentary aragonite dissolution is negligible but increases significantly in a burial depth of ~ 5 m. This increase is controlled by the onset of incipient sulfate reduction, which is also interpreted to lower the kinetic inhibition for dolomite formation. However, the intensity of aragonite dissolution does not increase linearly but shows clear variations based on the availability of reactive organic matter, which is higher in interglacial compared to glacial intervals. Aragonite dissolution and Mg2+ loss from high-Mg calcite contribute to the precipitation of dolomite preferentially in interglacial sediments. This mechanism provides an indirect link between dolomite formation, aragonite dissolution, and orbital cycles. The outcome of this study contributes to a better understanding of the timing and mechanism of aragonite dissolution.

description: It is increasingly recognised that advances in artificial intelligence could have large and long-lasting impacts on society. However, what form those impacts will take, just how large and long-lasting they will be, and whether they will ultimately be positive or negative for humanity, is far from clear. Based on surveying literature on the societal impacts of AI, we identify and discuss five potential long-term impacts of AI: how AI could lead to long-term changes in science, cooperation, power, epistemics, and values. We review the state of existing research in each of these areas and highlight priority questions for future research.

description: Motivated by time-sensitive e-service applications, we consider the design of effective policies in a Markovian model for the dynamic control of both admission and routing of a single class of real-time transactions to multiple heterogeneous clusters of web servers, each having its own queue and server pool. Transactions come with response-time deadlines, staying until completion if the latter are missed. Per job rejection and deadline-miss penalties are incurred. Since computing an optimal policy is intractable, we aim to design near optimal heuristic policies that are tractable for large-scale systems. Four policies are developed: the static optimal Bernoulli-splitting (BS) policy, and three index policies, based respectively on individually optimal (IO) actions, one-step policy improvement (PI), and restless bandit (RB) indexation. A computational study demonstrates that PI is the best of such policies, being consistently near optimal. In the pure-routing case, both the PI and RB policies are nearly optimal.

description: Trapping of single ultracold atoms is an important tool for applications ranging from quantum computation and communication to sensing. However, most experimental setups, while very precise and versatile, can only be operated in specialized laboratory environments due to their large size, complexity and high cost. Here, we introduce a new trapping concept for ultracold atoms in optical tweezers based on micrometer-scale lenses that are 3D printed onto the tip of standard optical fibers. The unique properties of these lenses make them suitable for both trapping individual atoms and capturing their fluorescence with high efficiency. In an exploratory experiment, we have established the vacuum compatibility and robustness of the structures, and successfully formed a magneto-optical trap for ultracold atoms in their immediate vicinity. This makes them promising components for portable atomic quantum devices.

Dynamic Multi-objective Ensemble of Acquisition Functions in Batch Bayesian Optimization

description: Bayesian optimization (BO) is a typical approach to solve expensive optimization problems. In each iteration of BO, a Gaussian process(GP) model is trained using the previously evaluated solutions; then next candidate solutions for expensive evaluation are recommended by maximizing a cheaply-evaluated acquisition function on the trained surrogate model. The acquisition function plays a crucial role in the optimization process. However, each acquisition function has its own strengths and weaknesses, and no single acquisition function can consistently outperform the others on all kinds of problems. To better leverage the advantages of different acquisition functions, we propose a new method for batch BO. In each iteration, three acquisition functions are dynamically selected from a set based on their current and historical performance to form a multi-objective optimization problem (MOP). Using an evolutionary multi-objective algorithm to optimize such a MOP, a set of non-dominated solutions can be obtained. To select batch candidate solutions, we rank these non-dominated solutions into several layers according to their relative performance on the three acquisition functions. The empirical results show that the proposed method is competitive with the state-of-the-art methods on different problems.

description: We demonstrate, via numerical simulations, that the relaxation dynamics of supercooled liquids correlates well with a plastic length scale measuring a particle's response to impulsive localized perturbations and weakly to measures of local elasticity. We find that the particle averaged plastic length scale vanishes linearly in temperature and controls the super-Arrhenius temperature dependence of the relaxation time. Furthermore, we show that the plastic length scale of individual particles correlates with their typical displacement at the relaxation time. In contrast, the local elastic response only correlates with the dynamics on the vibrational time scale.

description: Lipid nanoemulsions and nanosuspensions are used as flavor carriers and bubble stabilizers in soft drinks and foods, as well as delivery vehicles for lipophilic drugs in pharmaceutics. Common techniques for their formation are the high-pressure and ultrasonic homogenizers. These techniques dissipate most of the input energy, which results in excessive heating and generation of free radicals that might modify sensitive ingredients. Low energy methods are also used in some applications, but they have specific limitations restricting their universal use. In the current study, we propose an alternative approach - a flow reactor with a variable temperature, which utilizes the lipids' polymorphic transitions to induce spontaneous fragmentation of the lipid microparticles into nanoparticles. The reactor allows us to obtain emulsions or suspensions with particle diameters tunable between 20 and 800 nm when appropriate surfactants, temperature profiles, and flow rates are applied. The fragmentation is comparable to that in a high-pressure homogenizer at ca. 500 bars or higher, without creating emulsion overheating or cavitation typical for the conventional methods. The flow reactor can be scaled up to industrial applications using simple scaling rules.

description: Scholarly repositories are the cornerstone of modern open science, and their availability is vital for enacting its practices. To this end, scholarly registries such as FAIRsharing, re3data, OpenDOAR and ROAR give them presence and visibility across different research communities, disciplines, and applications by assigning an identifier and persisting their profiles with summary metadata. Alas, like any other resource available on the Web, scholarly repositories, be they tailored for literature, software or data, are quite dynamic and can be frequently changed, moved, merged or discontinued. Therefore, their references are prone to link rot over time, and their availability often boils down to whether the homepage URLs indicated in authoritative repository profiles within scholarly registries respond or not. For this study, we harvested the content of four prominent scholarly registries and resolved over 13 thousand unique repository URLs. By performing a quantitative analysis on such an extensive collection of repositories, this paper aims to provide a global snapshot of their availability, which bewilderingly is far from granted.

Multimodal Speech Emotion Recognition using Cross Attention with Aligned Audio and Text

description: In this paper, we propose a novel speech emotion recognition model called Cross Attention Network (CAN) that uses aligned audio and text signals as inputs. It is inspired by the fact that humans recognize speech as a combination of simultaneously produced acoustic and textual signals. First, our method segments the audio and the underlying text signals into equal number of steps in an aligned way so that the same time steps of the sequential signals cover the same time span in the signals. Together with this technique, we apply the cross attention to aggregate the sequential information from the aligned signals. In the cross attention, each modality is aggregated independently by applying the global attention mechanism onto each modality. Then, the attention weights of each modality are applied directly to the other modality in a crossed way, so that the CAN gathers the audio and text information from the same time steps based on each modality. In the experiments conducted on the standard IEMOCAP dataset, our model outperforms the state-of-the-art systems by 2.66% and 3.18% relatively in terms of the weighted and unweighted accuracy.

description: In this work, we consider the task of pairwise cross-modality image registration, which may benefit from exploiting additional images available only at training time from an additional modality that is different to those being registered. As an example, we focus on aligning intra-subject multiparametric Magnetic Resonance (mpMR) images, between T2-weighted (T2w) scans and diffusion-weighted scans with high b-value (DWI$_{high-b}$). For the application of localising tumours in mpMR images, diffusion scans with zero b-value (DWI$_{b=0}$) are considered easier to register to T2w due to the availability of corresponding features. We propose a learning from privileged modality algorithm, using a training-only imaging modality DWI$_{b=0}$, to support the challenging multi-modality registration problems. We present experimental results based on 369 sets of 3D multiparametric MRI images from 356 prostate cancer patients and report, with statistical significance, a lowered median target registration error of 4.34 mm, when registering the holdout DWI$_{high-b}$ and T2w image pairs, compared with that of 7.96 mm before registration. Results also show that the proposed learning-based registration networks enabled efficient registration with comparable or better accuracy, compared with a classical iterative algorithm and other tested learning-based methods with/without the additional modality. These compared algorithms also failed to produce any significantly improved alignment between DWI$_{high-b}$ and T2w in this challenging application.

description: The increase in use of online educational tools has led to a large amount of educational video materials made available for students. Finding the right video content is usually supported by the overarching learning management system and its interface that organises video items by course, categories and weeks, and makes them searchable. However, once a video is found, students are left without further guidance as to what parts in that video they should focus on. In this article, an additional timeline visualisation to augment the conventional playback timeline is introduced which employs a novel playback weighting strategy in which the history of different video interactions generate scores based on the context of each playback. The resultant scores are presented on the additional timeline, making it in effect a playback-centric usage graph nuanced by how each playback was executed. Students can selectively watch those portions which the contour of the usage visualisation suggests. The visualisation was implemented and deployed in an undergraduate course at a university for two full semesters. 270 students used the system throughout both semesters watching 52 videos, guided by visualisations on what to watch. Analysis of playback logs revealed students selectively watched corresponding to the most important portions of the videos as assessed by the instructor who created the videos. The characteristics of this as a way of guiding students as to where to watch as well as a complementary tool for playback analysis, are discussed. Further insights into the potential values of this visualisation and its underlying playback weighting strategy are also discussed.

Effects of the tensor force on low-energy heavy-ion fusion reactions: A mini review

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: In recent several years, the tensor force, one of the most important components of the nucleon-nucleon force, has been implemented in time-dependent density functional theories and it has been found to influence many aspects of low-energy heavy-ion reactions, such as dissipation dynamics, sub-barrier fusions, low-lying vibration states of colliding partners. Especially, the effects of tensor force on fusion reactions have been investigated from the internuclear potential to fusion cross sections systematically. In this work we present a mini review on the recent progresses on this topic. Considering the recent progress of low-energy reaction theories, we will also mention more possible effects of the tensor force on reaction dynamics.

Microscopic study of the compound nucleus formation in cold-fusion reactions

description: The understanding of the fusion probability is of particular importance to reveal the mechanism of producing superheavy elements. We present a microscopic study of the compound nucleus formation by combining time-dependent density functional theory, coupled-channels approach, and dynamical diffusion models. The fusion probability and compound nucleus formation cross sections for cold-fusion reactions $^{48}$Ca+$^{208}$Pb, $^{50}$Ti+$^{208}$Pb, and $^{54}$Cr+$^{208}$Pb are investigated and it is found that the deduced capture barriers, capture cross sections for these reactions are consistent with experimental data. Above the capture barrier, our calculations reproduce the measured fusion probability reasonably well. Our studies demonstrate that the restrictions from the microscopic dynamic theory improve the predictive power of the coupled-channels and diffusion calculations.

description: POSITION OF TRITONUS
An unexpected result of the analyses based on all larval characters and non-chaetotaxic larval characters (Fig. 99) is the position of Tritonus as a sister clade to the Hydrobiusini (excluding Hybogralius). Four larval characters support this clade: (1) character 16(1), inner margin of epistomal lobes with cuticular spines (also present in other dissimilar genera, e.g. Phaenonotum Sharp, 1882, Chaetarthria, Tropisternus Solier, 1834, convergence); (2) character 35(0), femur as large as trochanter (also shared with unrelated Phaenonotum, Chaetarthria and Tormus, convergence); (3) character 49(0), ratio distance between both FR8/distance between FR8–FR9 less than 0.6 (also shared with larvae of the tribe Hydrophilini and Tormus, a probable convergence); and (4) character 99(1), a short antennal sensorium (SE1), not shared with any other genera included in the analysis and can be considered a synapomorphy for this clade; however, Tropisternus and Sternolophus Solier, 1834 (Hydrophilini) have an extremely short sensorium. The topology-constrained analysis revealed Tritonus as sister to the Hydrobiusini only in the analysis based on non-chaetotaxic characters; in all other cases it was revealed as sister to the Hydrophilini. This position is supported by three larval characters: (1) 57(1), sensillum PA11 developed as long trichoid seta (also present in Amphiops, Derallus and Ametor); (2) 65(1), pore AN2 closer to distal margin of the antennomere than to AN1 (weak character with many reversals across the tree); and (3) 96(0) third antennomere long (ratio AN2/AN3 <1.5) (only present in the Hydrophilini, Tritonus and Hydramara in the taxa included in the analysis). All these results are in contrast to those analyses based on molecular data (Toussaint et al., 2016; Toussaint & Short, 2018) in which Tritonus is revealed as closely related to Tormus and Paracymus Thomson, 1867. Larvae of the latter two genera differ from those of Tritonus in many aspects [discussed by Fikáček et al. (2017)] and from the morphological point of view, their close relationship seems unlikely. Our analyses indicate that the same may be the case for adult morphology. We hence consider the sister position of Tritonus and Hydrophilini as an alternative hypothesis worthy of further testing.

description: Managing finances is crucial for older adults who are retired and may rely on savings to ensure their life quality. As digital banking platforms (e.g., mobile apps, electronic payment) gradually replace physical ones, it is critical to understand how they adapt to digital banking and the potential frictions they experience. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 16 older adults in China, where the aging population is the largest and digital banking grows fast. We also interviewed bank employees to gain complementary perspectives of these help givers. Our findings show that older adults used both physical and digital platforms as an ecosystem based on perceived pros and cons. Perceived usefulness, self-confidence, and social influence were key motivators for learning digital banking. They experienced app-related (e.g., insufficient error-recovery support) and user-related challenges (e.g., trust, security and privacy concerns, low perceived self-efficacy) and developed coping strategies. We discuss design considerations to improve their banking experiences.
