pitch perception

description: Estonian is a quantity language where both a primary duration cue and a secondary pitch cue exist, whereas Chinese is a tonal language that features a dominant use of pitch. Native speakers of both languages (63 Estonian and 61 Chinese participants) participated in a mismatch negativity (MMN) experiment where stimuli in both languages and their non-linguistic equivalents (i.e., pure tones) were discriminated in terms of duration change, pitch change, and duration plus pitch change. The MMN experiment was followed by a behavioral discrimination experiment where non-native stimuli were presented. Chinese participants showed right lateralized MMNs and, behaviorally, a low discrimination accuracy to the duration change in the Estonian stimuli and their non-linguistic equivalents, suggesting that they perceived duration as acoustic information without linguistic meaning. While no group difference was found in perceiving the pitch change in the Estonian stimuli, Chinese participants showed larger MMNs and a higher accuracy than Estonian participants to the pitch change in the Chinese stimuli, suggesting a relatively better pitch discrimination ability than Estonian participants. Estonian participants showed larger MMNs than Chinese participants to the pure tones that resembled the Estonian stimuli containing both duration and pitch changes, suggesting that linguistically-relevant cues can influence the processing of non-linguistic stimuli. Our results indicate that long-term familiarity with specific sound features in one’s native language affects the perception of duration and pitch and that such an effect is not specific to the language domain.

description: We introduce a sieve for counting twin primes up to a given range. Our method depends on a parameter $λ_x$ and the estimation of the number of twin primes obtained as a result, is called a fundamental structure of the distribution of twin primes. Combining the latter with an asymptotic bound of $λ_x$, establishes venues, conducive to a discovery of a partial result that can be considered as a suitable variant of the prime number theorem. Furthermore, we obtain an asymptotic bound of the number of twin primes less than $x$.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: In the ALMA 2030 development roadmap a crucial role is assigned to the evolution of the ALMA Science Archive to improve the user experience and maximize the scientific exploitation of ALMA data. To date, the Archive accounts for 10 cycles of data summing up to 1.4 PB of raw data and images representative of the data content that cover all the possible science categories from solar observations to cosmology. Most of the data are still unpublished: the ALMA Science Archive is a gold mine for archival users! The expected telescope upgrade will costitute a huge challenge in the archival data management. In view of the next decade telescope development, several upgrades have already been applied to improve the Archive features and offer easy access and experience to the miners. In this talk I will present some of the already available features and examples of their application to science cases. In particular, I will focus on the results of the Additional Representative Images for Legacy (ARI-L) project that has been a European Development project for ALMA Upgrade leaded by the Italian node of the EU ARC. It increased the legacy value of the ALMA Science Archive by bringing the reduction level of ALMA data from Cycles 2-4 close to that of data from more recent Cycles processed for imaging with the ALMA Pipeline. The project produced, assessed the quality of, and delivered to the ALMA Science Archive more than 300000 images for more than 88.5% of the observational datasets from Cycles 2 to 4 processable with the ALMA Pipeline that were missing pipeline-generated images. ARI-L products are certified for quality and can be downloaded from the ALMA Science Archive as ``external products''. The ARI-L project documentation and website are publicly available through the ALMA science portal (https://almascience.org/alma-data/aril).

description: Contemplative practices are used with increasing frequency across various fields of knowledge, and increasingly so within educational settings as a means of promoting wellness and wellbeing. In this paper, we draw on qualitative data derived from primary students’ experiences of meditative breathing and use them as a springboard to extrapolate meaning and cogenerate novel insights around contemplative practices. Theoretically framed within an authentic inquiry | contemplative inquiry dialectic, this approach seeks to situate the research team within the contemplative process, striving to make a difference for stakeholders. Intentionally acknowledging and drawing on our values, beliefs, and lifeworlds, this authentic inquiry | contemplative inquiry allows for the cogeneration of deep and meaningful insights. Insights coalesce around four emergent dialectics of contemplative practices: relaxed | stressed, attentive | distracted, still | energized and unbounded | constrained. Our co-constructed contemplative narrative argues that within the complex space of unbounded fields, contemplative practices have the potential to transform physical, mental, emotional, and social lifeworlds through a contagious individual and collective ripple effect.

description: I will summarise recent and ongoing research highlights from the ALPINE survey, an ALMA large program that observed dust continuum and [CII] emission in a statistical sample of normal star-forming galaxies at z=4–6, highlighting their significance to our understanding of early galaxy evolution. Combined with ancillary data at UV through near-IR wavelengths, ALPINE provides the currently largest multi-wavelength sample of post-reionization galaxies and has advanced our understanding of (i) the interstellar medium properties and star formation activity, (ii) the gas content, (iii) outflows and metal enrichment of the circumgalactic medium and (v) the kinematics and merger rates, in galaxies at z>4. ALPINE builds the basis for more detailed measurements with the current and next generations of big telescopes, and I will show an overview of a number of legacy programs that are already being carried out with ALMA and JWST.

description: The development of next-generation lithium-ion batteries with volumetric energy densities > 750 Wh/L and gravimetric energy densities > 400 Wh/kg is a key objective of the European Union’s Strategic Energy Technology Plan to be achieved by 2030. Both new materials and production strategies play an important role in the development of those batteries. Thick-film electrodes are advantageous to increase the volumetric and gravimetric energy densities alike since the amount of inactive material can be reduced. To facilitate higher C-rates during (dis-)charging in thick-film electrodes, laser generated structured are introduced, thus creating new lithium-ion diffusion pathways leading to a reduced cell polarization. Additionally, electrode wetting with liquid electrolyte is significantly improved, reducing the risk of dry spots in the electrode stack. Industry interest in implementing laser patterning of electrodes into existing or planned manufacturing lines has increased significantly in recent times. The strip speeds of electrode production are decisive for the required speeds to be realized in laser structuring. Various technical approaches can be applied to upscale the laser patterning process such as multibeam processing which can be realized by splitting a laser beam into several beamlets with a DOE. In this work, a large field scanner and a related optical lens system are combined with an ultrashort pulsed, high repetition rate, high power laser source. The ablation behavior of commercial graphite composite electrode material was investigated for upscaling using different laser patterning scenarios.
Paleo-spectroscopy: retrieve and complement past data for radioastronomy searches
Creators: name: Assimo, Maris
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: A plethora of microwave and millimetre wave molecular spectroscopy data are available to the radioastronomy community. However, some of it was collected several decades ago and its modelling is sometimes obsolete. Moreover, instrumental advances allow complementing the data with new measurements that extend the investigated frequency ranges and improve the quality of the spectral predictions. Therefore, retrieving and complementing past information is necessary to look for not yet detected molecules in space. Some recent cases related to molecules containing atoms of the third period will be discussed, focusing on the challenges derived by the presence of internal motions (i.e. methyl internal rotation) and preliminary searches on Alma Archive.

description: Le livret-jeu de présentation des bibliothèques de l’UVSQ “La BU dont vous êtes le héros” est un produit de formation ludique, destiné à capter l'attention des étudiants primos-entrants afin de leur transmettre les informations minimales qui correspondent à leurs besoins essentiels en recherche documentaire.

L'idée est que l’addition d’une pédagogie active et l’usage du “libre-choix” permet l’ancrage des connaissances. En résulte une meilleure compréhension et mémorisation générale des notions de la formation à la recherche documentaire. 

Le livret était, au départ, pensé pour des étudiants en Licence et Master ne connaissant pas la BU et devait se jouer en toute autonomie. Cependant, son utilisation a été repensée notamment pour les accueils L1 à Versailles (ou seul le livret était utilisé) et pour solutionner les groupes d’accueil L1 qui ne pouvaient pas bénéficier d’une séance standard.

A la BU de Versailles, 541 étudiants ont participé pour 51 à la BU de St Quentin, et ce, seulement pour les seules formations. Des étudiants ont également joué en autonomie.

En ce qui concerne les besoins plus larges des étudiants et en écho aux axes de réflexion des JIPES 2022 concernant l’expérience étudiante (Comment la conception pédagogique d’un enseignement peut-elle impacter le bien-être de l’étudiant à l’apprentissage ?), la DBIST de l’UVSQ a répondu incidemment aux demandes d’étudiants concernant leur besoin d’activités permettant de créer de la sociabilité, en particulier en début d'année scolaire, comme le démontrent les premiers retours sur le produit.

Les évaluations faites auprès des étudiants sont positives à prêt de 92%.

description: Here, an attempt has been made to synthesize a high-quality fluorescent oligo(2,4-diaminotoluene) suitable for the development of a probe. The work introduces a new unique type of template (i.e., cage made of water-alcohol co-solvents) for oligomer containing 5–6 repeating units with remarkable water solubility and strong photoluminescence. Almost 16-fold enhancement of fluorescence properties compared to analogously structured polymer reported earlier has been achieved through aggregation-induced emission (AIE). Modern techniques like FTIR, NMR, PXRD, TGA, DTG, MALDI-TOF MS, SEM, TEM, SAED, and DLS are used to confirm the formation of the desired oligomer. Due to the high quantum yield (0.49), narrow emission band (full width at half maximum = 45 nm), and suitable chemical structure, the oligomer could be used as a potential fluorescent chemo-sensor for arsenic species. The reproducible LOD (2.47 mM) and wide LDR (0–100 mM) values along with robustness make the system highly relevant as an analytical tool. The structure, spectral properties, and sensing abilities of the oligomer have been understood in the light of computational chemistry.

description: In this work, a rapid polymerization method was combined with thiol-para-fluoro (TPF) “click” post-polymerization modification (PPM) strategy. To this end, a reactive monomer, namely bis((perfluorophenyl)methyl) but-2-ynedioate, was specifically designed and used in the synthesis of polythioether via thiol-Michael addition reaction by using 1,6-hexanedithiol (HDT) and 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD) as a catalyst, and the reaction proceeded at room temperature for 5 min to give the pristine polythioether P0. This polymer was then used as a platform to perform PPM with various thiol compounds. The PPM reactions showed quantitative efficiency in 4 h with moderate to high yields. All modified polymers were analyzed with 1H, 13C, and 19F NMR analyses, and molecular weights were calculated by using GPC. It is believed that combining such polymerization and PPM reactions can be a very useful tool to obtain polymers having different structures for different purposes. Hence, this work introduces a new type of polymer backbone that can be rapidly prepared and undergo a relatively fast PPM.

description: Due to the dramatic biodiversity crisis, it is crucial to understand how people perceive biodiversity. Knowledge of how thoughts are organized around this concept can identify which ideas are best to focus on biodiversity conservation information campaigns. The primary aim of the present study was to identify social representations of the German public regarding the concept of biodiversity and its loss using a free word association test. Furthermore, unique association networks were analyzed. For this purpose, data collection was performed in September 2021 in Germany using an online questionnaire to assess participants’ associations with the prompt “biodiversity” (n = 131) and “biodiversity loss” (n = 130). Additionally, we used the social network software Gephi to create biodiversity (loss) association networks. The five most commonly mentioned associations for biodiversity were “animal,” “plant,” “nature,” “human,” and “flower.” For biodiversity loss, the five most commonly mentioned associations were “species extinction,” “climate change,” “plant,” “insect,” and “bee.” Neither “land use change” nor “invasive species,” as key drivers of biodiversity loss, were present in social representations of the German public. A difference was observed in the total number of mentioned associations between biodiversity and biodiversity loss. For both, the associations “plant” and “animal” were related. However, participants associated specific taxa only with animals, such as “insects” and “birds.” For plants, no specific taxa were named. Based on the network analysis, the most commonly mentioned word pairs for biodiversity and biodiversity loss were “plant – animal” and “species loss – climate change,” respectively. Based on our statistical network analysis, these associations were identified as the most central associations with the greatest influence in the network. Thus, they had the most connections and the function of predicting the flow in the network. In sum, the public’s multifaceted views on biodiversity and its loss, as well as the aforementioned central associations, hold great potential to be utilized more for the communication and education of biodiversity conservation. In addition, our findings contribute to the scientific community’s understanding of social representations and perceptions of biodiversity and its loss.
NAVIGATING THE LEGAL LANDSCAPE: RESPONSIBILITIES AND CONSEQUENCES IN HEALTHCARE WORKER PROTECTION

description: The declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, marked a critical juncture that prompted urgent global responses to curb the spread of the viral disease. As the severity of the outbreak escalated, governments were urged to implement measures, including quarantine and isolation, that could potentially encroach upon individual human rights. This paper examines the delicate balance between safeguarding public health and upholding human rights in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Acknowledging the gravity of the situation, the World Health Organization emphasized the necessity for swift and robust actions to curb the virus's spread. However, the imposition of measures such as quarantine and isolation necessitates careful consideration of their impact on human rights. While the pandemic justifies certain limitations on individual freedoms, it is crucial to maintain transparency and respect for human dignity and rights principles.

This study contends that all governments grappling with the COVID-19 outbreak must prioritize the integration of international human rights law into their responses. By doing so, they can ensure the protection of public health while mitigating adverse impacts on vulnerable populations. The paper asserts that states should align their human rights tasks and principles with their responses to the pandemic.

The examination extends to the repercussions on human rights following preventive measures like quarantine and travel restrictions. Governments are implored to guarantee access to preventive care, essential goods and services, accessible healthcare, and uphold social security and workers' rights. At the forefront of this global health crisis are healthcare workers, who continue to provide essential services despite the personal risks they face. These risks encompass not only the potential contraction of COVID-19 but also psychological distress and fatigue.

International reports highlight the alarming statistic of over 3000 healthcare workers being infected by COVID-19, with a significant number of doctors succumbing to the disease. Drawing parallels with previous infectious disease epidemics like Ebola and SARS, this paper sheds light on the heightened vulnerability of healthcare workers to infection and mortality. As the world grapples with the evolving understanding of COVID-19 and its preventive measures, this study emphasizes the need to recognize and address the unique challenges faced by healthcare workers, ensuring their protection and well-being in the fight against the pandemic

description: Bilirubin is an important biomarker of jaundice, and the quantitative detection of bilirubin is of great significance in the diagnosis and prevention of early jaundice. In this paper, Fe3+ quenched conjugated polymer nanoparticles were used as a "turn-off-on" fluorescence platform to detect bilirubin for the first time. The CPNsPBMC-COOH were prepared through a nanoprecipitation method based on polystyrene maleic anhydride and PBMC, a conjugated polymer synthesized by our research group. The fluorescence of CPNsPBMC-COOH can be efficiently quenched closely to 95% by Fe3+. The optimized fluorescence platform was obtained (CPNsPBMC-COOH: 10 μg/mL, Fe3+: 4.5 μM). The platform to detect bilirubin has a higher sensitivity with a 5 nM of LOD. The detection range was in the 1.32–26.68 μM, which can cover the concentration of bilirubin in normal adult serum (<25 μM). Moreover, the stoichiometries and binding constants of CPNsPBMC-COOH, bilirubin, and Fe3+ are obtained. The binding ability is better for bilirubin and Fe3+. The static quenching mode is found by the absorption spectra and the fluorescence lifetimes. Lastly, this method has obtained satisfactory results in real biological samples (mouse serum and mouse plasma). This work can be used for daily rapid clinical bilirubin detection.

description: Inspired by critical technology, urban and education studies, the Outsmarted project, led by Dr Alevizou, worked with KCL students from Digital Humanities and Liberal Arts to explore their experiences of London in terms of culture and communication infrastructures, places and spaces for knowledge, learning and leisure. Deploying a range of participatory pedagogies and qualitative methods, as well as creative and computational thinking, it drew insights into students’ understanding of the ‘digital’ (culture, media, connections, networks and infrastructures and frames surrounding ‘appification’) in the city. This toolkit can be used as a research and a further learning resource aimed at cultivating informed-collaborative pedagogies. The Outsmarted project was jointly funded by the faculties of Arts & Humanities and Education at King’s College London. The design iteration and production of the Outsmarted toolkit was funded by the Digital Futures Institute. The toolkit builds upon participatory, capacity building methodologies devised by numerous projects including the Media, Community and the Creative Citizen project and the UnBias AI project with further adaptions based on input of faculty and students from the Department of Digital Humanities at KCL.
Faraday's Law and Magnetic Induction: cause and effect, experiment and theory

description: Faraday's Law of induction is often stated as "a change in magnetic flux causes an EMF"; or, more cautiously, "a change in magnetic flux is associated with an EMF"; It is as well that the more cautious form exists, because the first "causes" form is incompatible with the usual expression $V = - \partial_t Φ$. This is not, however, to deny the causality as reasonably inferred from experimental observation - it is the equation for Faraday's Law of induction which does not represent the claimed cause-and-effect relationship. Here I investigate a selection of different approaches, trying to see how an explicitly causal mathematical equation, which attempts to encapsulate the "a change in magnetic flux causes ..." idea, might arise.

description: After the Arab Uprisings, Salafi movements that had previously exalted their separation from mainstream society mobilised to participate in political institutions. This thesis explores how Salafis in post-revolutionary Egypt and Tunisia addressed this development. It answers the following questions: How was the transition from social movement to party managed? What transformations in ideology or identity accompanied this shift? What effects did Salafi participation have on the political opportunity structure? This thesis utilises an across- and within-case study comparison among four Salafi movements: Jabhat al-Islah and Itilaf al-Karama in Tunisia, and Hizb al-Nour and Hazem Salah Abu Ismail in Egypt. It adopts a Social Movement approach treating Salafi movements as imbricated in opportunity structures. Four opportunity variables are analysed: religio-political competition; relations between formal and informal politics, degree of polarisation and revolutionary reform. Using data extracted from the Facebook pages of each Salafi actor, the thesis explores how these variables were discursively interpreted through Salafis’ diagnostic, prognostic and motivational frames. This dissertation finds that Salafis entered formal politics by emphasising either identity or ideology. The first trajectory involved forming a niche party based on ideology to advocate for a strict interpretation of religiosity, while de-emphasising Salafism’s counter-cultural aspects to ally with institutional actors. The other trajectory entailed adopting a populist master frame premised on an ‘outsider’ identity that embraced nationalist and revolutionary logics and reshaped the political field by reworking the secular-elite division into an elite-people dichotomy. This thesis divides into four primary chapters. Chapter One situates the thesis within the literature on Salafism as an identity and ideology. Chapter Two presents the case for a social movement perspective on Salafi politicisation and outlines a typology of political Salafism. Chapters Three and Four discuss the Tunisian and Egyptian cases, presenting a comparative analysis of political Salafis’ responses to opportunity.

description: A charged, non-rotating, spherically symmetric black hole which has cosmological constant $Λ$ (Reissner-Nordström+$Λ$ or RN+$Λ$), active gravitational mass $M$ and electric charge $Q$ is studied with exterior Friedman-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe in (2+1) dimensional spacetime. We find a new classes of exact solutions of the charged black hole where the generalized Birkoff's theorem is assumed to be valid. It is found that the cosmological constant is negative inside the black hole. We confirm it from the geodesic equations too. The cosmological constant is found to be dependent on $R, Q$ and $a(v)$ which correspond to the areal radius, charge, of the black hole and the scale factor of the universe respectively. We note that the expansion of the universe affects the size and the mass of the black hole. An important observation is that, for an observer at infinity, both the mass and charge of black hole increase with the contraction of the universe and decrease with the expansion of the universe.

title: The early typographic representation of the Persian language
Creators: name: Izadpanah, Borna

description: This thesis explores the early typographic representation of the Persian language, written with the modified Arabic script, in the period from its inception in the 1590s in Europe, 1778 in India, 1742 in the Ottoman Empire and 1818 in Iran. It investigates various circumstances that have affected the textual identity of the Persian language including the impact of printing technologies and the roles that the Persian language has played in different communities. During the period under investigation, Persian was cultivated as a missionary and scholarly subject by European orientalists, as the language of ruling minority in India, and as the official language in Iran. Persian literature also played a significant role in the Ottoman lands, which instigated printing and publishing activities beyond these borders that persisted despite the political and social changes in the twentieth century. This research combines the analysis of printed letterforms and knowledge of writing styles with considerations regarding the contexts in which Persian texts were printed. The examination of the visual aspects of Persian publications is informed by important factors such as their intended audience and the often-unconventional approach of printers and typefounders. The thesis provides an original contribution to the field of Persian printing history by means of extensive archival research and a critical review of primary and secondary sources. It draws on insufficiently scrutinised archives and often overlooked primary materials, and pays attention to the lesser-known non-European sources. It interrogates established narratives, and therefore offers a more accurate account of the significant typographic development of the Persian language from the sixteenth to the late nineteenth centuries that has remained largely undocumented. This study’s findings regarding the significant developments in the history of Persian language printing and typefounding are informed by other important initiatives in the history of Arabic-script printing. It brings to light rare publications and printed matter which have not been previously discussed in the fields of typographic or print history. This thesis is supported by high-resolution images which include those of rare printed and manuscript items that have been instrumental in providing new insights into the evolution of printed Persian text, particularly with movable type.

Isomorphism between the $R$-matrix and Drinfeld presentations of Yangian in types $B$, $C$ and $D$

description: It is well-known that the Gauss decomposition of the generator matrix in the $R$-matrix presentation of the Yangian in type $A$ yields generators of its Drinfeld presentation. Defining relations between these generators are known in an explicit form thus providing an isomorphism between the presentations. It has been an open problem since the pioneering work of Drinfeld to extend this result to the remaining types. We give a solution for the classical types $B$, $C$ and $D$ by constructing an explicit isomorphism between the $R$-matrix and Drinfeld presentations of the Yangian. It is based on an embedding theorem which allows us to consider the Yangian of rank $n-1$ as a subalgebra of the Yangian of rank $n$ of the same type.

description: Groups of enterprises guarantee each other and form complex guarantee networks when they try to obtain loans from banks. Such secured loan can enhance the solvency and promote the rapid growth in the economic upturn period. However, potential systemic risk may happen within the risk binding community. Especially, during the economic down period, the crisis may spread in the guarantee network like a domino. Monitoring the financial status, preventing or reducing systematic risk when crisis happens is highly concerned by the regulatory commission and banks. We propose visual analytics approach for loan guarantee network risk management, and consolidate the five analysis tasks with financial experts: i) visual analytics for enterprises default risk, whereby a hybrid representation is devised to predict the default risk and developed an interface to visualize key indicators; ii) visual analytics for high default groups, whereby a community detection based interactive approach is presented; iii) visual analytics for high defaults pattern, whereby a motif detection based interactive approach is described, and we adopt a Shneiderman Mantra strategy to reduce the computation complexity. iv) visual analytics for evolving guarantee network, whereby animation is used to help understanding the guarantee dynamic; v) visual analytics approach and interface for default diffusion path. The temporal diffusion path analysis can be useful for the government and bank to monitor the default spread status. It also provides insight for taking precautionary measures to prevent and dissolve systemic financial risk. We implement the system with case studies on a real-world guarantee network. Two financial experts are consulted with endorsement on the developed tool. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first visual analytics tool to explore the guarantee network risks in a systematic manner.
