description: In this work, we report on an $ab-initio$ computational study of the electronic and magnetic properties of transition metal adatoms on a monolayer of NbSe$_2$. We demonstrate that Cr, Mn, Fe and Co prefer all to sit above the Nb atom, where the $d$ states experience a substantial hybridization. The inter-atomic exchange coupling is shown to have an oscillatory nature accompanied by an exponential decay, in accordance with what theory predicts for a damped Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction. Our results indicate that the qualitative features of the magnetic coupling for the four investigated adatoms can be connected to the fine details of their Fermi surface. In particular, the oscillations of the exchange in Fe and Co are found to be related to a single nesting vector, connecting large electrons and hole pockets. Most interestingly, this behavior is found to be unaffected by changes induced on the height of the impurity, which makes the magnetism robust to external perturbations. Considering that NbSe$_2$ is a superconductor down to a single layer, our research might open the path for further research into the interplay between magnetic and superconducting characteristics, which could lead to novel superconductivity engineering.

description: In this paper, we present an efficient weak measurement-based scheme for direct quantum state tomography (DQST) and direct quantum process tomography (DQPT), and experimentally implement it on an NMR ensemble quantum information processor without involving any projective measurements. We develop a generalized quantum circuit that enables us to directly measure selected elements of the density matrix and process matrix which characterize unknown quantum states and processes, respectively. This generalized quantum circuit uses the scalar J-coupling to control the interaction strength between the system qubits and the metre qubit. We experimentally implement these weak measurement-based DQST and DQPT protocols and use them to accurately characterize several two-qubit quantum states and single-qubit quantum processes. An extra qubit is used as a metre qubit to implement the DQST protocol, while for the DQPT protocol, two extra qubits (one as a metre qubit and the other as an ancilla qubit) are used.

Implementing the Emergency Triage, Assessment and Treatment plus admission care (ETAT+) clinical practice guidelines to improve quality of hospital care in Rwandan district hospitals: healthcare workers’ perspectives on relevance and challenges

description: Background: An emergency triage, assessment and treatment plus admission care (ETAT+) intervention was implemented in Rwandan district hospitals to improve hospital care for severely ill infants and children. Many interventions are rarely implemented with perfect fidelity under real-world conditions. Thus, evaluations of the real-world experiences of implementing ETAT+ are important in terms of identifying potential barriers to successful implementation. This study explored the perspectives of Rwandan healthcare workers (HCWs) on the relevance of ETAT+ and documented potential barriers to its successful implementation. Methods: HCWs enrolled in the ETAT+ training were asked, immediately after the training, their perspective regarding (i) relevance of the ETAT+ training to Rwandan district hospitals; (ii) if attending the training would bring about change in their work; and (iii) challenges that they encountered during the training, as well as those they anticipated to hamper their ability to translate the knowledge and skills learned in the ETAT+ training into practice in order to improve care for severely ill infants and children in their hospitals. They wrote their perspectives in French, Kinyarwanda, or English and sometimes a mixture of all these languages that are official in the post-genocide Rwanda. Their notes were translated to (if not already in) English and transcribed, and transcripts were analyzed using thematic content analysis. Results: One hundred seventy-one HCWs were included in our analysis. Nearly all these HCWs stated that the training was highly relevant to the district hospitals and that it aligned with their work expectation. However, some midwives believed that the “neonatal resuscitation and feeding” components of the training were more relevant to them than other components. Many HCWs anticipated to change practice by initiating a triage system in their hospital and by using job aids including guidelines for prescription and feeding. Most of the challenges stemmed from the mode of the ETAT+ training delivery (e.g., language barriers, intense training schedule); while others were more related to uptake of guidelines in the district hospitals (e.g., staff turnover, reluctance to change, limited resources, conflicting protocols). Conclusion: This study highlights potential challenges to successful implementation of the ETAT+ clinical practice guidelines in order to improve quality of hospital care in Rwandan district hospitals. Understanding these challenges, especially from HCWs perspective, can guide efforts to improve uptake of clinical practice guidelines including ETAT+ in Rwanda.

description: We experimentally demonstrate the transfer of an unknown single-qubit state from Alice to Bob via a two-step discrete-time quantum random walk on a cycle with four vertices on a four-qubit nuclear magnetic resonance quantum processor. The qubits with Alice and Bob are used as coin qubits and the walk is carried out on in a two-qubit `Gaming Arena'. In this scheme, the required entangled state is generated naturally via conditional shift operators during the quantum walk, instead of being prepared in advance. We implement controlled operators at Bob's end, which are controlled by Alice's coin qubit and arena qubits, in order to reconstruct Alice's randomly generated state at Bob's end. To characterize the state transfer process, we perform quantum process tomography by repeating the experiment for a set of input states $\{ \vert 0\rangle, \vert 1\rangle, \vert +\rangle, \vert -\rangle \}$. Using an entanglement witness, we certify that the quantum walk generates a genuine quadripartite entangled state of all four qubits. To evaluate the efficacy of the transfer scheme, We use quantum state tomography to reconstruct the transferred state by calculating the projection of the experimentally reconstructed four-qubit density matrix onto three-qubit basis states. Our results demonstrate that the quantum circuit is able to perform quantum state transfer via the two-step quantum random walk with high fidelity.

description: This experimental study aims to investigate the convex combinations of Pauli semigroups with arbitrary mixing parameters to determine whether the resulting dynamical map exhibits Markovian or non-Markovian behavior. Specifically, we consider the cases of equal as well as unequal mixing of two Pauli semigroups, and demonstrate that the resulting map is always non-Markovian. Additionally, we study three cases of three-way mixing of the three Pauli semigroups and determine the Markovianity or non-Markovianity of the resulting maps by experimentally determining the decay rates. To simulate the non-unitary dynamics of a single qubit system with different mixing combinations of Pauli semigroups on an NMR quantum processor, we use an algorithm involving two ancillary qubits. The experimental results align with the theoretical predictions.

description: Renewable energy is critical for combating climate change, whose first step is the storage of electricity generated from renewable energy sources. Li-ion batteries are a popular kind of storage units. Their continuous usage through charge-discharge cycles eventually leads to degradation. This can be visualized in plotting voltage discharge curves (VDCs) over discharge cycles. Studies of battery degradation have mostly concentrated on modeling degradation through one scalar measurement summarizing each VDC. Such simplification of curves can lead to inaccurate predictive models. Here we analyze the degradation of rechargeable Li-ion batteries from a NASA data set through modeling and predicting their full VDCs. With techniques from longitudinal and functional data analysis, we propose a new two-step predictive modeling procedure for functional responses residing on heterogeneous domains. We first predict the shapes and domain end points of VDCs using functional regression models. Then we integrate these predictions to perform a degradation analysis. Our approach is fully functional, allows the incorporation of usage information, produces predictions in a curve form, and thus provides flexibility in the assessment of battery degradation. Through extensive simulation studies and cross-validated data analysis, our approach demonstrates better prediction than the existing approach of modeling degradation directly with aggregated data.

description: Creating knowledge bases and ontologies is a time consuming task that relies on a manual curation. AI/NLP approaches can assist expert curators in populating these knowledge bases, but current approaches rely on extensive training data, and are not able to populate arbitrary complex nested knowledge schemas.
 Here we present Structured Prompt Interrogation and Recursive Extraction of Semantics (SPIRES), a Knowledge Extraction approach that relies on the ability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform zero-shot learning (ZSL) and general-purpose query answering from flexible prompts and return information conforming to a specified schema. Given a detailed, user-defined knowledge schema and an input text, SPIRES recursively performs prompt interrogation against GPT-3+ to obtain a set of responses matching the provided schema. SPIRES uses existing ontologies and vocabularies to provide identifiers for all matched elements.
 We present examples of use of SPIRES in different domains, including extraction of food recipes, multi-species cellular signaling pathways, disease treatments, multi-step drug mechanisms, and chemical to disease causation graphs. Current SPIRES accuracy is comparable to the mid-range of existing Relation Extraction (RE) methods, but has the advantage of easy customization, flexibility, and, crucially, the ability to perform new tasks in the absence of any training data. This method supports a general strategy of leveraging the language interpreting capabilities of LLMs to assemble knowledge bases, assisting manual knowledge curation and acquisition while supporting validation with publicly-available databases and ontologies external to the LLM.
 SPIRES is available as part of the open source OntoGPT package: https://github.com/ monarch-initiative/ontogpt.

description: Consider the problem of constructing an experimental design, optimal for estimating parameters of a given statistical model with respect to a chosen criterion. To address this problem, the literature usually provides a single solution. Often, however, there exists a rich set of optimal designs, and the knowledge of this set can lead to substantially greater freedom to select an appropriate experiment. In this paper, we demonstrate that the set of all optimal approximate designs generally corresponds to a polytope. Particularly important elements of the polytope are its vertices, which we call vertex optimal designs. We prove that the vertex optimal designs possess unique properties, such as small supports, and outline strategies for how they can facilitate the construction of suitable experiments. Moreover, we show that for a variety of situations it is possible to construct the vertex optimal designs with the assistance of a computer, by employing error-free rational-arithmetic calculations. In such cases the vertex optimal designs are exact, often closely related to known combinatorial designs. Using this approach, we were able to determine the polytope of optimal designs for some of the most common multifactor regression models, thereby extending the choice of informative experiments for a large variety of applications.

description: Choline is essential for infant development. Human milk choline is predominately present in three water-soluble choline (WSC) forms: free choline (FC), phosphocholine (PhosC), and glycerophosphocholine (GPC). It is unclear whether mother’s own preterm milk and pooled donor milk differ in WSC composition and whether WSC compounds are interrelated. Mother’s own preterm milk (n = 75) and donor milk (n = 30) samples from the neonatal intensive care unit, BC Women’s Hospital were analyzed for WSC composition using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Associations between different WSC compounds were determined using Pearson’s correlations, followed by Fischer r-to-z transformation. Total WSC concentration and concentrations of FC, PhosC, and GPC did not significantly differ between mother’s own milk and donor milk. FC was negatively associated with PhosC and GPC in mother’s own milk (r = −0.27, p = 0.02; r = −0.34, p = 0.003, respectively), but not in donor milk (r = 0.26, p = 0.181 r = 0.37, p = 0.062, respectively). The difference in these associations between the two milk groups were statistically significant (p = 0.03 for the association between PhosC and FC; and p = 0.003 for the association between FC and GPC). PhosC and GPC were positively associated in mother’s own milk (r = 0.32, p = 0.036) but not donor milk (r = 0.36, p = 0.062), although the difference in correlation was not statistically significant. The metabolic and clinical implications of these associations on the preterm infant need to be further elucidated.

description: The challenge of recycling and waste management has become increasingly critical in the current era due to the escalating volume of plastic waste and its environmental impact. This study investigates the mechanical recycling of a Phillips catalyst high density polyethylene (P-HDPE) by using a twin-screw extruder with altering different parameters such as temperature (170 °C & 210 °C), recycling time (30 min, 60 min, 120 min & 240 min) and screw rotation speed (60 rpm, 120 rpm & 180 rpm). Recycled P-HDPE exhibits altered rheological properties compared to virgin materials due to chain scission, crosslinking and branching during recycling, leading to variations in molecular weight (MW), molecular weight distribution and in melt viscosity. Recycled P-HDPE at 170 °C shows a higher melt flow index (MFI) value than virgin P-HDPE due to chain scission. The MFI value increases with increasing recycling time and screw speed. In the case of recycled P-HDPE at 210 ⁰C, crosslinking or branching occurs at low screw speed and recycling time. At high speed and higher recycling time, it shows again chain scission. Time-temperature superposition graphs of recycled P-HDPE clearly distinguish the chain scission occurring at 170 °C and crosslinking or branching occurring at 210 °C. The overall study gives an idea of how screw speed and recycling time influence the recycling of P-HDPE at different temperatures.

description: Background: Women in high resource nations are increasingly delaying childbearing until their thirties. Delayed childbearing poses challenges for the spacing of a woman’s pregnancies. Inter-pregnancy intervals <12 months are associated with risk for adverse pregnancy outcome, yet increased maternal age at delivery is linked with increased risk. The optimal inter-pregnancy interval for older mothers is uncertain. This systematic review will aim to assess the relation between inter-pregnancy interval and perinatal and maternal health outcomes in women who delay childbearing to age 30 and older. Methods: We will search MEDLINE, CINAHL, and EMBASE databases for peer-reviewed articles on the effects of inter-pregnancy interval on perinatal and maternal health outcomes among women over 29 years at the time of first birth, in high-income countries. To assess the quality of studies, the Cochrane’s Collaboration tool for assessing risk of bias will be used for randomized controlled trials, and the Newcastle-Ottawa tool to assess quality of case control and cross-sectional studies. The quality of the findings on each outcome will be assessed across studies, using the GRADE approach. The decision to conduct meta-analyses will be based on the concordance in definitions used for inter-pregnancy intervals, age groups studied, or outcomes measured among selected studies. We will report odds ratios and/or relative risks and/or risk differences for different inter-pregnancy intervals and perinatal and maternal outcomes as well as pregnancy complications. Discussion: This systematic review will summarize existing data on the relation between inter-pregnancy interval and perinatal and maternal health outcomes among women who delay childbearing to age 30 and older. Findings will inform clinical best practices to assist mothers over age 30 to space their pregnancies appropriately. Systematic review registration Prospero CRD42015019057

description: Modern security proofs of quantum key distribution (QKD) must take finite-size effects and composable aspects into consideration. This is also the case for continuous-variable (CV) protocols which are based on the transmission and detection of bosonic coherent states. In this paper, we refine and advance the previous theory in this area providing a more rigorous formulation for the composable key rate of a generic CV-QKD protocol. Thanks to these theoretical refinements, our general formulas allow us to prove more optimistic key rates with respect to previous literature.

For wall temperatures close to the temperatures of the upper or lower boundaries, we show that the base state undergoes a Hopf bifurcation to a state comprised of spatio-temporal oscillations--`wall modes'--precessing in a retrograde direction. We study the saturated nonlinear state of these modes, and show that the velocity boundary conditions at the upper and lower boundaries are crucial to the formation and propagation of the wall modes: asymmetric velocity boundary conditions at the upper and lower boundaries can lead to prograde wall modes, while stress-free boundary conditions at both walls can lead to wall modes that have no preferred direction of propagation.

description: This thesis consists of seven pieces of varying instrumentation accompanied by an analytical commentary. The reader will be presented with a thorough analysis of a wide range of compositional techniques that have their roots in the new and revolutionary development that took place in music during the 20th century. A conscious effort has been made to define the large-scale form of every work via a thorough analysis of the moment to moment structural connections used in each case. In order to illuminate the different aspects of the compositional process in a work, each analysis focuses on several specific areas - the work's general structure, the internal structure, the pitch structure and the organization of pitch material. As indicated by their titles, these parts provide detailed information on how the pieces are constructed as well as many interesting ideas concerning the aesthetic background of these works.

description: The SPICE/HeRALD collaboration is performing R&D to enable studies of sub-GeV dark matter models using a variety of target materials. Here we report our recent progress on instrumenting a superfluid $^4$He target mass with a transition-edge sensor based calorimeter to detect both atomic signals (scintillation) and $^4$He quasiparticle (phonon and roton) excitations. The sensitivity of HeRALD to the critical "quantum evaporation" signal from $^4$He quasiparticles requires us to block the superfluid film flow to the calorimeter. We have developed a heat-free film-blocking method employing an unoxidized Cs film, which we implemented in a prototype "HeRALD v0.1" detector of ~10 g target mass. This article reports initial studies of the atomic and quasiparticle signal channels. A key result of this work is the measurement of the quantum evaporation channel's gain of 0.15 $\pm$ 0.01, which will enable $^4$He-based dark matter experiments in the near term. With this gain the HeRALD detector reported here has an energy threshold of 145 eV at 5 sigma, which would be sensitive to dark matter masses down to 220 MeV/c$^2$.

Neighborhood walkability, physical activity, and walking for transportation: A cross-sectional study of older adults living on low income

description: Background: Walking, and in particular, outdoor walking, is the most common form of physical activity for older adults. To date, no study investigated the association between the neighborhood built environment and physical activity habits of older adults of low SES. Thus, our overarching aim was to examine the association between the neighborhood built environment and the spectrum of physical activity and walking for transportation in older adults of low socioeconomic status. Methods: Cross-sectional data were from the Walk the Talk Study, collected in 2012. Participants (n = 161, mean age = 74 years) were in receipt of a rental subsidy for low income individuals and resided in neighbourhoods across Metro Vancouver, Canada. We used the Street Smart Walk Score to objectively characterize the built environment main effect (walkability), accelerometry for objective physical activity, and the Community Healthy Activities Model Program for Seniors (CHAMPS) questionnaire to measure walking for transportation. We used regression analyses to examine associations of objectively measured physical activity [total volume, light intensity and moderate intensity physical activity (MVPA)] and self-reported walking for transportation (any, frequency, duration) with walkability. We adjusted analyses for person- and environment-level factors associated with older adult physical activity. Results: Neighbourhood walkability was not associated with physical activity volume or intensity and self-reported walking for transportation, with one exception. Each 10-point increase in Street Smart Walk Score was associated with a 45% greater odds of any walking for transportation (compared with none; OR = 1.45, 95% confidence interval = 1.18, 1.78). Sociodemographic, physical function and attitudinal factors were significant predictors of physical activity across our models. Conclusions: The lack of associations between most of the explored outcomes may be due to the complexity of the relation between the person and environment. Given that this is the first study to explore these associations specifically in older adults living on low income, this study should be replicated in other settings.

Black, White, Black and White : Mixed race and health in Canada
Creators: name: Veenstra, Gerry
Publisher: name: Taylor & Francis
Year: 2018

description: Objectives: To document inequalities in hypertension, self-rated health, and self-rated mental health between Canadian adults who identify as Black, White, or Black and White and determine whether differences in educational attainment and household income explain them. Design: The dataset was comprised of ten cycles (2001-2013) of the Canadian Community Health Survey. The health inequalities were examined by way of binary logistic regression modelling of hypertension and multinomial logistic regression modelling of self-rated health and self-rated mental health. Educational attainment and household income were investigated as potentially mediating factors using nested models and the Karlson-Holm-Breen decomposition technique. Results: Black respondents were significantly more likely than White respondents to report hypertension, a disparity that was partly attributable to differences in income. White respondents reported the best and Black respondents reported the worst overall self-rated health, a disparity that was entirely attributable to income differences. Respondents who identified as both Black and White were significantly more likely than White respondents to report fair or poor mental health, a disparity that was partly attributable to income differences. After controlling for income, Black respondents were significantly less likely than White respondents to report fair or poor mental health. Educational attainment did not contribute to explaining any of these associations. Conclusion: Canadians who identify as both Black and White fall between Black Canadians and White Canadians in regards to self-rated overall health, report the worst self-rated mental health of the three populations, and, with White Canadians, are less likely than Black Canadians to report hypertension. These heterogeneous findings are indicative of a range of diverse processes operative in the production of Black-White health inequalities in Canada.

description: One-hot maps are commonly used in the AI domain. Unsurprisingly, they can also bring great benefits to ML-based algorithms such as decision trees that run under Homomorphic Encryption (HE), specifically CKKS. Prior studies in this domain used these maps but assumed that the client encrypts them. Here, we consider different tradeoffs that may affect the client's decision on how to pack and store these maps. We suggest several conversion algorithms when working with encrypted data and report their costs. Our goal is to equip the ML over HE designer with the data it needs for implementing encrypted one-hot maps.
Nonlinear fractional equations in the Heisenberg group

description: We deal with a wide class of nonlinear nonlocal equations led by integro-differential operators of order $(s,p)$, with summability exponent $p \in (1,\infty)$ and differentiability exponent $s\in (0,1)$, whose prototype is the fractional subLaplacian in the Heisenberg group. We present very recent boundedness and regularity estimates (up to the boundary) for the involved weak solutions, and we introduce the nonlocal counterpart of the Perron Method in the Heisenberg group, by recalling some results on the fractional obstacle problem. Throughout the paper we also list various related open problems.
