description: This paper introduces a control problem of regulation of energy flows in a two-site electricity and heat supply system, where two Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants are interconnected via electricity and heat flows. The control problem is motivated by recent development of fast operation of CHP plants to provide ancillary services of power system on the order of tens of seconds to minutes. Due to the physical constraint that the responses of the heat subsystem are not necessary as fast as those of the electric subsystem, the target controlled state is not represented by any isolated equilibrium point, implying that stability of the system is lost in the long-term sense on the order of hours. In this paper, we first prove in the context of nonlinear control theory that the state-space model of the two-site system is non-minimum phase due to nonexistence of isolated equilibrium points of the associated zero dynamics.Instead, we locate a one-dimensional invariant manifold that represents the target controlled flows completely. Then, by utilizing a virtual output under which the state-space model becomes minimum phase, we synthesize a controller that achieves not only the regulation of energy flows in the short-term regime but also stabilization of an equilibrium point in the long-term regime. Effectiveness of the synthesized controller is established with numerical simulations with a practical set of model parameters.

description: Speech activity detection (SAD) plays an important role in current speech processing systems, including automatic speech recognition (ASR). SAD is particularly difficult in environments with acoustic noise. A practical solution is to incorporate visual information, increasing the robustness of the SAD approach. An audiovisual system has the advantage of being robust to different speech modes (e.g., whisper speech) or background noise. Recent advances in audiovisual speech processing using deep learning have opened opportunities to capture in a principled way the temporal relationships between acoustic and visual features. This study explores this idea proposing a \emph{bimodal recurrent neural network} (BRNN) framework for SAD. The approach models the temporal dynamic of the sequential audiovisual data, improving the accuracy and robustness of the proposed SAD system. Instead of estimating hand-crafted features, the study investigates an end-to-end training approach, where acoustic and visual features are directly learned from the raw data during training. The experimental evaluation considers a large audiovisual corpus with over 60.8 hours of recordings, collected from 105 speakers. The results demonstrate that the proposed framework leads to absolute improvements up to 1.2% under practical scenarios over a VAD baseline using only audio implemented with deep neural network (DNN). The proposed approach achieves 92.7% F1-score when it is evaluated using the sensors from a portable tablet under noisy acoustic environment, which is only 1.0% lower than the performance obtained under ideal conditions (e.g., clean speech obtained with a high definition camera and a close-talking microphone).

description: "Trustworthy data" is the fuel for ensuring transparent traceability, precise decision-making, and cogent coordination in the supply chain (SC) space. However, the disparate data silos act as a trade barrier in orchestrating the provenance of product story starting from the transformation of raw materials into the circuit board to the assembling of electronic components into end products available on the store shelf for customers. Therefore, to bridge the fragmented siloed information across global supply chain partners, the diffusion of blockchain (BC) as one of the advanced distributed ledger technology (DLT) takeover the on-premise legacy systems. Nevertheless, the challenging constraints of blockchain including scalability, accessing off-line data, fee-less microtransactions and many more lead to the third wave of blockchain called IOTA. In this paper, we propose a framework for supporting provenance in the electronic supply chain (ECS) by using permissioned IOTA ledger. Realizing the crucial requirement of trustworthy data, we use Masked Authenticated Messaging (MAM) channel provided by IOTA that allows the SC players to procure distributed information while keeping confidential trade flows, tamper-proof data, and fine-grained accessibility rights. To identify operational disruption, we devise a transparent product ledger through transaction data and consignment information to keep track of the complete product journey at each intermediary step during SC processes. Furthermore, we evaluate the secure provenance data construction time for varying payload size.

description: We report on the realization of a novel platform for the creation of large-scale 3D multilayer configurations of planar arrays of individual neutral-atom qubits: a microlens-generated Talbot tweezer lattice that extends 2D tweezer arrays to the third dimension at no additional costs. We demonstrate the trapping and imaging of rubidium atoms in integer and fractional Talbot planes and the assembly of defect-free atom arrays in different layers. The Talbot self-imaging effect for microlens arrays constitutes a structurally robust and wavelength-universal method for the realization of 3D atom arrays with beneficial scaling properties. With more than 750 qubit sites per 2D layer, these scaling properties imply that 10000 qubit sites are already accessible in 3D in our current implementation. The trap topology and functionality are configurable in the micrometer regime. We use this to generate interleaved lattices with dynamic position control and parallelized sublattice addressing of spin states for immediate application in quantum science and technology.

description: Anti-Brownian traps confine single particles in free solution by closed-loop feedback forces that directly counteract Brownian motion. The extended-duration measurement of trapped objects allows detailed characterization of photophysical and transport properties, as well as observation of infrequent or rare dynamics. However, this approach has been generally limited to particles that can be tracked by fluorescent emission. Here we present the Interferometric Scattering Anti-Brownian ELectrokinetic trap (ISABEL trap), which uses interferometric scattering rather than fluorescence to monitor particle position. By decoupling the ability to track (and therefore trap) a particle from collection of its spectroscopic data, the ISABEL trap enables confinement and extended study of single particles that do not fluoresce, that only weakly fluoresce, or which exhibit intermittent fluorescence or photobleaching. This new technique significantly expands the range of nanoscale objects that may be investigated at the single-particle level in free solution.

A second tube contains a vial with body fragments. Both tubes have identification labels and it is not clear if they are different specimens, although the fact that there are two old data labels of the kind used in the dry collection reading “Cordova, Mexique, M H de Saussure” might indicate that there were two. The jar is labelled “Holotypus”, but since the type series was unspecified, the contents should be considered as syntype(s).

description: Speech emotion recognition (SER) systems find applications in various fields such as healthcare, education, and security and defense. A major drawback of these systems is their lack of generalization across different conditions. This problem can be solved by training models on large amounts of labeled data from the target domain, which is expensive and time-consuming. Another approach is to increase the generalization of the models. An effective way to achieve this goal is by regularizing the models through multitask learning (MTL), where auxiliary tasks are learned along with the primary task. These methods often require the use of labeled data which is computationally expensive to collect for emotion recognition (gender, speaker identity, age or other emotional descriptors). This study proposes the use of ladder networks for emotion recognition, which utilizes an unsupervised auxiliary task. The primary task is a regression problem to predict emotional attributes. The auxiliary task is the reconstruction of intermediate feature representations using a denoising autoencoder. This auxiliary task does not require labels so it is possible to train the framework in a semi-supervised fashion with abundant unlabeled data from the target domain. This study shows that the proposed approach creates a powerful framework for SER, achieving superior performance than fully supervised single-task learning (STL) and MTL baselines. The approach is implemented with several acoustic features, showing that ladder networks generalize significantly better in cross-corpus settings. Compared to the STL baselines, the proposed approach achieves relative gains in concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) between 3.0% and 3.5% for within corpus evaluations, and between 16.1% and 74.1% for cross corpus evaluations, highlighting the power of the architecture.

Applied health economics : economic evaluation of lifestyle interventions to promote cognition in older adults with chronic stroke
Creators: name: Adjetey, Cassandra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Background: Cognitive impairment is a common and costly consequence of a stroke, occurring in about 30% of stroke survivors. Evidence suggests exercise and cognitive training can improve cognitive function among individuals with chronic stroke. What remains unknown, is whether exercise and/or cognitive training are cost-effective compared with usual care. Purpose: This study aims to examine the cost-effectiveness of exercise and cognitive training compared with a stretching and tone program from a healthcare system perspective of a 6-month intervention with a six-month follow-up. Method: An economic evaluation alongside a 6-month randomized controlled trial involving 120 community-dwelling adults with chronic stroke (i.e., at least 12 months post-stroke) in Metro Vancouver, Canada. Participants were aged 55 years and older, did not have dementia and were able to walk six meters. Participants were randomly assigned to i) EX, a multi-component exercise of strength, aerobic, and balance training (n=34), ii) ENRICH, cognitive and social enrichment activities (n=34), or iii) BAT, a stretching and toning program (control) (n=52). The economic evaluation assessed cost-effectiveness and cost-utility as the incremental cost per change in the Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale – Cognitive-Plus (ADAS-Cog-Plus) and incremental cost per Quality Adjusted life year (QALY) using the Euro-Qol 5D three-level of the interventions respectively. Costs are reported in 2022 Canadian Dollars. Results: The mean age for all participants was 71 years (SD= 9) with about 46% female participants. At the end of the 6-month intervention, the incremental cost per change in ADAS-Cog-Plus showed that both EX and ENRICH were more effective and more costly compared with the BAT control group. The incremental benefits in ADAS-Cog were not sustained at 12 months. The incremental cost per change in QALY at 6 and 12 months showed that while EX was less costly and ENRICH more costly compared to the BAT group, the incremental QALYs gained for both interventions were negligible and not clinically significant. Conclusion: Compared to stretching and toning, exercise training to improve post-stroke cognitive impairment was cost-effective. The cost-effectiveness of cognitive training activities depends on the decision-makers willingness to pay. This highlights the importance of exercise in stroke rehabilitation.

description: This paper focuses on multiscale dynamics occurring in steam supply systems. The dynamics of interest are originally described by a distributed-parameter model for fast steam flows over a pipe network coupled with a lumped-parameter model for slow internal dynamics of boilers. We derive a lumped-parameter model for the dynamics through physically-relevant approximations. The derived model is then analyzed theoretically and numerically in terms of existence of normally hyperbolic invariant manifold in the phase space of the model. The existence of the manifold is a dynamical evidence that the derived model preserves the slow-fast dynamics, and suggests a separation principle of short-term and long-term operations of steam supply systems, which is analogue to electric power systems. We also quantitatively verify the correctness of the derived model by comparison with brute-force simulation of the original model.

Rape myth acceptance, sexism, and mental representation of women who have experienced sexual assault
Creators: name: Stewart, Jayme
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Despite being the second most common form of violent crime in Canada, sexual assault is one of the lowest reported violent crimes. When survivors do report to family, friends, and police, they are commonly disbelieved or dismissed —particularly when they do not conform to expectations of how a survivor should look or act. Accordingly, understanding stereotypes about women who have experienced sexual assault is an important factor to improving responses to sexual assault disclosures. Though research indicates that those with attitudes reflecting rape myth acceptance and sexism are less likely to believe a sexual assault disclosure, little is known about how these attitudes manifest into stereotypes of sexual assault survivors. Using a novel, data driven technique that allows for the estimation of assumption and bias-free images, this study examined how rape myth acceptance and sexism affect mental representations of sexual assault survivors within an American context. Ninety-six participants completed a 400-trial reverse correlation (RC) task as well as measures related to rape myth acceptance and sexism. Ninety-six individual-level CIs were generated by aggregating the visual noise in each RC trial, which provided a visual representation of each participants’ stereotype of a sexual assault survivor’s appearance. An additional independent sample of 86 participants each rated 30 of the individual-level CIs on various appearance variables, including trustworthiness, vulnerability, and femininity. Results demonstrated that each attitude variable was negatively associated with perceptions of vulnerability, while hostile sexism and the ‘she lied’ rape myth were negatively related to trustworthiness. Additionally, women produced mental representations that were perceived as more vulnerable than men. After accounting for the role of gender, rape myth acceptance emerged as the sole predictor of vulnerability ratings. Taken together, this research expands our current understanding of perceptions of women who have experienced sexual assault. And, importantly, by identifying how attitudes are related to disbelief of survivors, this research may serve as a stepping-stone towards improving responses to sexual assault disclosures.

description: (1) Background: Postoperative pain is a frequently underestimated complication significantly influencing surgical outcome and patient satisfaction. While abdominoplasty is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures, studies investigating postoperative pain are limited in current literature. (2) Methods: In this prospective study, 55 subjects who underwent horizontal abdominoplasty were included. Pain assessment was performed by using the standardized questionnaire of the Benchmark Quality Assurance in Postoperative Pain Management (QUIPS). Surgical, process and outcome parameters were then used for subgroup analysis. (3) Results: We found a significantly decreased minimal pain level in patients with high resection weight compared to the low resection weight group (p = 0.01 *). Additionally, Spearman correlation shows significant negative correlation between resection weight and the parameter “Minimal pain since surgery” (rs = −0.332; p = 0.013). Furthermore, average mood is impaired in the low weight resection group, indicating a statistical tendency (p = 0.06 and a Χ2 = 3.56). We found statistically significant higher maximum reported pain scores (rs = 0.271; p = 0.045) in elderly patients. Patients with shorter surgery showed a statistically significant (Χ2 = 4.61, p = 0.03) increased claim for painkillers. Moreover, “mood impairment after surgery” shows a dramatic trend to be enhanced in the group with shorter OP duration (Χ2 = 3.56, p = 0.06). (4) Conclusions: While QUIPS has proven to be a useful tool for the evaluation of postoperative pain therapy after abdominoplasty, only continuous re-evaluation of pain therapy is a prerequisite for constant improvement of postoperative pain management and may be the first approach to develop a procedure-specific pain guideline for abdominoplasty. Despite a high satisfaction score, we detected a subpopulation with inadequate pain management in elderly patients, patients with low resection weight and a short duration of surgery.

description: Tracking Cartesian motion with end~effectors is a fundamental task in robot control. For motion that is not known in advance, the solvers must find fast solutions to the inverse kinematics (IK) problem for discretely sampled target poses. On joint control level, however, the robot's actuators operate in a continuous domain, requiring smooth transitions between individual states. In this work, we present a boost to the well-known Jacobian transpose method to address this goal, using the mass matrix of a virtually conditioned twin of the manipulator. Results on the UR10 show superior convergence and quality of our dynamics-based solver against the plain Jacobian method.

 Saussure (1860) gave a more detailed redescription of the ♂ without mentioning the ♀, and gave Cordova as the type locality. Saussure & Humbert (1872) described the ♀ on the basis of five specimens from Moyoapan and Santa Cruz, but these are not syntypes (and may not be conspecific). The MHNG collection has five dry specimens under the name Fontaria tepanecus, the ♂ having the data label “Cordova, Mexique, M H de Saussure.” There is also a tube containing a dry pair of gonopods secured by a pin through the cork stopper. These are all part of the type series. Hoffman (1970: 155) refers to a ♂ specimen in the MHNG collection as the holotype, which can be considered a lectotype designation by holotype assumption, particularly because the specimen has the label “Lectotype sig. Hoffman ’60.”

Saussure & Humbert (1872) gave a more detailed redescription of the ♀ only, stating that the specimen(s) had been collected by Natterer. No specimens found in the MHNG. There is one dissected ♂ type specimen in the NHMW (Inventory number 2442, Acquisition number 1866.I.46) collected by Natterer. The Acquisition Register shows that the lot contained only one specimen, so this can be considered the holotype. The sex given in the redescription is either an error or they used a different specimen, the whereabouts of which is unknown. The generic placement is uncertain.

description: We study the dynamical behaviors of degenerate stochastic differential equations (SDEs). We select an auxiliary Fisher information functional as the Lyapunov functional. Using generalized Fisher information, we conduct the Lyapunov exponential convergence analysis of degenerate SDEs. We derive the convergence rate condition by generalized Gamma calculus. Examples of the generalized Bochner's formula are provided in the Heisenberg group, displacement group, and Martinet sub-Riemannian structure. We show that the generalized Bochner's formula follows a generalized second-order calculus of Kullback-Leibler divergence in density space embedded with a sub-Riemannian type optimal transport metric.

description: For Kaehler manifolds we explicitly determine the solution to the conformal Killing form equation in middle degree. In particular, we complete the classification of conformal Killing forms on compact Kaehler manifolds. We give the first examples of conformal Killing forms on Kaehler manifolds not coming from Hamiltonian 2-forms. These are supported by Calabi type manifolds over a Kaehler Einstein base. In this set up we also give structure results and examples for the closely related class of Hermitian Killing forms.

On the worst-case error of least squares algorithms for $L_2$-approximation with high probability

description: It was recently shown in [4] that, for $L_2$-approximation of functions from a Hilbert space, function values are almost as powerful as arbitrary linear information, if the approximation numbers are square-summable. That is, we showed that \[ e_n \,\lesssim\, \sqrt{\frac{1}{k_n} \sum_{j\geq k_n} a_j^2} \qquad \text{ with }\quad k_n \asymp \frac{n}{\ln(n)}, \] where $e_n$ are the sampling numbers and $a_k$ are the approximation numbers. In particular, if $(a_k)\in\ell_2$, then $e_n$ and $a_n$ are of the same polynomial order. For this, we presented an explicit (weighted least squares) algorithm based on i.i.d. random points and proved that this works with positive probability. This implies the existence of a good deterministic sampling algorithm. Here, we present a modification of the proof in [4] that shows that the same algorithm works with probability at least $1-{n^{-c}}$ for all $c>0$.

description: We consider boundary element methods where the Calderón projector is used for the system matrix and boundary conditions are weakly imposed using a particular variational boundary operator designed using techniques from augmented Lagrangian methods. Regardless of the boundary conditions, both the primal trace variable and the flux are approximated. We focus on the imposition of Dirichlet conditions on the Helmholtz equation, and extend the analysis of the Laplace problem from \emph{Boundary element methods with weakly imposed boundary conditions} to this case. The theory is illustrated by a series of numerical examples.

description: Physicians taking care of patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have described different changes in routine blood parameters. However, these changes, hinder them from performing COVID-19 diagnosis. We constructed a machine learning predictive model for COVID-19 diagnosis. The model was based and cross-validated on the routine blood tests of 5,333 patients with various bacterial and viral infections, and 160 COVID-19-positive patients. We selected operational ROC point at a sensitivity of 81.9% and specificity of 97.9%. The cross-validated area under the curve (AUC) was 0.97. The five most useful routine blood parameters for COVID19 diagnosis according to the feature importance scoring of the XGBoost algorithm were MCHC, eosinophil count, albumin, INR, and prothrombin activity percentage. tSNE visualization showed that the blood parameters of the patients with severe COVID-19 course are more like the parameters of bacterial than viral infection. The reported diagnostic accuracy is at least comparable and probably complementary to RT-PCR and chest CT studies. Patients with fever, cough, myalgia, and other symptoms can now have initial routine blood tests assessed by our diagnostic tool. All patients with a positive COVID-19 prediction would then undergo standard RT-PCR studies to confirm the diagnosis. We believe that our results present a significant contribution to improvements in COVID-19 diagnosis.

description: Electricity load forecasting enables the grid operators to optimally implement the smart grid's most essential features such as demand response and energy efficiency. Electricity demand profiles can vary drastically from one region to another on diurnal, seasonal and yearly scale. Hence to devise a load forecasting technique that can yield the best estimates on diverse datasets, specially when the training data is limited, is a big challenge. This paper presents a deep learning architecture for short-term load forecasting based on bidirectional sequential models in conjunction with feature engineering that extracts the hand-crafted derived features in order to aid the model for better learning and predictions. In the proposed architecture, named as Deep Derived Feature Fusion (DeepDeFF), the raw input and hand-crafted features are trained at separate levels and then their respective outputs are combined to make the final prediction. The efficacy of the proposed methodology is evaluated on datasets from five countries with completely different patterns. The results demonstrate that the proposed technique is superior to the existing state of the art.

description: The present study explored racial/ethnic and sex differences in fathers’ awareness and perceived ease of communication with fathers and how they are related to adolescent bullying victimization and psychosomatic symptoms. Data were drawn from the 2009 to 2010 Health Behavior in School-Aged Children study in the United States. The sample consists of 5,121 White, 1,497 African American, and 1,850 Hispanic adolescents in grades 5 to 10. For all three racial and ethnic groups, bullying victimization was positively associated with psychosomatic symptoms. A higher level of the child’s perception of their father’s awareness was found to be positively associated with lower levels of bullying victimization for White and Hispanic adolescents. African American, White, and Hispanic adolescents who perceived their fathers as easy to communicate with had a lower risk of bullying victimization. The child’s perception of their father’s awareness buffered the positive association between bullying victimization and psychosomatic symptoms for Hispanic adolescents. A higher child’s perception of their father’s awareness was related to lower bullying victimization for adolescents of both sexes. The child’s perception of their father’s awareness and their perceived ease of communication with their father were found to be associated with a decreased risk of psychosomatic symptoms for both sexes. Overall, the results support the importance of relationship quality with fathers as a protective factor against bullying victimization.
