description: Public health research often concerns relationships between exposures and correlated count outcomes. When counts exhibit more zeros than expected under Poisson sampling, the zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) model with random effects may be used. However, the latent class formulation of the ZIP model can make marginal inference on the sampled population challenging. This article presents a marginalized ZIP model with random effects to directly model the mean of the mixture distribution consisting of ‘susceptible’ individuals and excess zeroes, providing straightforward inference for overall exposure effects. Simulations evaluate finite sample properties, and the new methods are applied to a motivational interviewing-based safer sex intervention trial, designed to reduce the number of unprotected sexual acts.

description: BaNi$_2$As$_2$ is a nonmagnetic analogue of the iron pnictide superconductors, and in its tetragonal state exhibits an incommensurate charge-density-wave (IC-CDW) and a sizable elastoresistance. In this work, phonons in BaNi$_2$As$_2$ associated with the IC-CDW and uniform in-plane lattice distortions are investigated using high-resolution inelastic X-ray scattering. The in-plane transverse acoustic phonons reveal no softening at temperatures where the elastoresistance increases strongly, indicating the latter to be electronically driven. Systematic phonon measurements reveal the IC-CDW occurs in two stages upon cooling: underdamped phonons first soften to zero energy well above the IC-CDW ordering temperature, then the resulting quasielastic IC-CDW fluctuations gradually slow down and coalesce into the static IC-CDW order. A possible origin for our observations is the IC-CDW in tetragonal BaNi$_2$As$_2$ being uniaxial, which provides an additional Ising degree of freedom favorable for disordered IC-CDW modulations, and accounts for the elastoresistance through a weak coupling to the lattice.

description: We consider compact $U^κ(1)$ gauge theory in 3+1D with the $2π$-quantized topological term ${\sum_{I, J =1}^κ\frac{K_{IJ}}{4π}\int_{M^4}F^I\wedge F^J}$. At energies below the gauge charges' gaps but above the monopoles' gaps, this field theory has an emergent ${\mathbb{Z}_{k_1}^{(1)}\times\mathbb{Z}_{k_2}^{(1)}\times\cdots}$ 1-symmetry, where $k_i$ are the diagonal elements of the Smith normal form of $K$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{0}^{(1)}$ is regarded as $U(1)^{(1)}$. In the $U^κ(1)$ confined phase, the boundary's IR properties are described by Chern-Simons field theory and has a ${\mathbb{Z}_{k_1}^{(1)}\times\mathbb{Z}_{k_2}^{(1)}\times\cdots}$ 1-symmetry that can be anomalous. To show these results, we develop a bosonic lattice model whose IR properties are described by this field theory, thus acting as its UV completion. The lattice model in the aforementioned limit has an exact ${\mathbb{Z}_{k_1}^{(1)}\times\mathbb{Z}_{k_2}^{(1)}\times\cdots}$ 1-symmetry. We find that a gapped phase of the lattice model, corresponding to the confined phase of the $U^κ(1)$ gauge theory, is a symmetry protected topological (SPT) phase for the ${\mathbb{Z}_{k_1}^{(1)}\times\mathbb{Z}_{k_2}^{(1)}\times\cdots}$ 1-symmetry, whose SPT invariant is ${e^{iπ\sum_{I, J}K_{IJ}\int B_I\smile B_J+B_I\underset{1}{\smile} d B_J}e^{iπ\sum_{I< J}K_{IJ}\int d B_I\underset{2}{\smile}d B_J}}$. Here, the background 2-cochains $B_I$ satisfy ${d B_I=\sum_I B_{I}K_{IJ} = 0}$ mod $1$ and describe the symmetry twist of the ${\mathbb{Z}_{k_1}^{(1)}\times\mathbb{Z}_{k_2}^{(1)}\times\cdots}$ 1-symmetry. We apply this general result to a few examples with simple $K$ matrices. We find the non-trivial SPT order in the confined phases of these models and discuss its classifications using the fourth cohomology group of the corresponding 2-group.

description: Loop quantum cosmology (LQC) provides promising resolutions to the trans-Planckian issue and initial singularity arising in the inflationary models of general relativity. In general, due to different quantization approaches, LQC involves two types of quantum corrections, the holonomy and inverse-volume, to both of the cosmological background evolution and perturbations. In this paper, using {\em the third-order uniform asymptotic approximations}, we derive explicitly the observational quantities of the slow-roll inflation in the framework of LQC with these quantum corrections. We calculate the power spectra, spectral indices, and running of the spectral indices for both scalar and tensor perturbations, whereby the tensor-to-scalar ratio is obtained. We expand all the observables at the time when the inflationary mode crosses the Hubble horizon. As the upper error bounds for the uniform asymptotic approximation at the third-order are $\lesssim 0.15\%$, these results represent the most accurate results obtained so far in the literature. It is also shown that with the inverse-volume corrections, both scalar and tensor spectra exhibit a deviation from the usual shape at large scales. Then, using the Planck, BAO and SN data we obtain new constraints on quantum gravitational effects from LQC corrections, and find that such effects could be within the detection of the forthcoming experiments.

description: Motion Estimation (ME) is one of the most time-consuming parts in video coding. The use of multiple partition sizes in H.264/AVC makes it even more complicated when compared to ME in conventional video coding standards. It is important to develop fast and effective sub-pixel ME algorithms since (a) The computation overhead by sub-pixel ME has become relatively significant while the complexity of integer-pixel search has been greatly reduced by fast algorithms, and (b) Reducing sub-pixel search points can greatly save the computation for sub-pixel interpolation. In this paper, a novel fast sub-pixel ME algorithm is proposed which performs a 'rough' sub-pixel search before the partition selection, and performs a 'precise' sub-pixel search for the best partition. By reducing the searching load for the large number of non-best partitions, the computation complexity for sub-pixel search can be greatly decreased. Experimental results show that our method can reduce the sub-pixel search points by more than 50% compared to existing fast sub-pixel ME methods with negligible quality degradation.

Higher order response-adaptive urn designs for clinical trials with highly successful treatments

description: We consider a problem of reducing the expected number of treatment failures in trials where the probability of response to treatment is close to 1 and treatments are compared based on log odds ratio. We propose a new class of urn designs for randomization of patients in a clinical trial. The new urn designs target a number of allocation proportions including the allocation proportion that yields the same power as equal allocation but significantly less expected treatment failures. The new design is compared with the doubly adaptively biased coin design, the efficient randomized adaptive design and with equal allocation. The properties of the new class of designs are studied by embedding them into a family of continuous time stochastic processes.

description: This paper highlights the role of institutional resources and policies, whose origins lie in political processes, in shaping the genetic etiology of body mass among a national sample of adolescents. Using data from Waves I and II of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, we decompose the variance of body mass into environmental and genetic components. We then examine the extent to which the genetic influences on body mass are different across the 134 schools in the study. Taking advantage of school differences in both health-related policies and social norms regarding body size, we examine how institutional resources and policies alter the relative impact of genetic influences on body mass. For the entire sample, we estimate a heritability of .82, with the remaining .18 due to unique environmental factors. However, we also show variation about this estimate and provide evidence suggesting that social norms and institutional policies often mask genetic vulnerabilities to increased weight. Empirically, we demonstrate that more-restrictive school policies and policies designed to curb weight gain are also associated with decreases the proportion of variance in body mass that is due to additive genetic influences.

description: We look into dark solitons in a quasi-1D dipolar Bose gas and in a quantum droplet. We derive the analytical solitonic solution of a Gross-Pitaevskii-like equation accounting for beyond mean-field effects. The results show there is a certain critical value of the dipolar interactions, for which the width of a motionless soliton diverges. Moreover, there is a peculiar solution of the motionless soliton with a non-zero density minimum. We also present the energy spectrum of these solitons with an additional excitation subbranch appearing. Finally, we perform a series of numerical experiments revealing the coexistence of a dark soliton inside a quantum droplet.

description: We introduce a new class of (dynamical) systems that inherently capture cascading effects (viewed as consequential effects) and are naturally amenable to combinations. We develop an axiomatic general theory around those systems, and guide the endeavor towards an understanding of cascading failure. The theory evolves as an interplay of lattices and fixed points, and its results may be instantiated to commonly studied models of cascade effects. We characterize the systems through their fixed points, and equip them with two operators. We uncover properties of the operators, and express global systems through combinations of local systems. We enhance the theory with a notion of failure, and understand the class of shocks inducing a system to failure. We develop a notion of mu-rank to capture the energy of a system, and understand the minimal amount of effort required to fail a system, termed resilience. We deduce a dual notion of fragility and show that the combination of systems sets a limit on the amount of fragility inherited.

description: We initiate the construction of gauge fluxes in F-theory compactifications on genus-one fibrations which only have a multi-section as opposed to a section. F-theory on such spaces gives rise to discrete gauge symmetries in the effective action. We generalize the transversality conditions on gauge fluxes known for elliptic fibrations by taking into account the properties of the available multi-section. We test these general conditions by constructing all vertical gauge fluxes in a bisection model with gauge group SU(5) x Z2. The non-abelian anomalies are shown to vanish. These flux solutions are dynamically related to fluxes on a fibration with gauge group SU(5) x U(1) by a conifold transition. Considerations of flux quantization reveal an arithmetic constraint on certain intersection numbers on the base which must necessarily be satisfied in a smooth geometry. Combined with the proposed transversality conditions on the fluxes these conditions are shown to imply cancellation of the discrete Z2 gauge anomalies as required by general consistency considerations.

description: The semi-classical gravity sourced by the quantum expectation value of the matter's energy-momentum tensor will change the evolution of the quantum state of matter. This effect can be described by the Schroedinger-Newton (SN) equation, where the semi-classical gravity contributes a gravitational potential term depending on the matter quantum state. This state-dependent potential introduces the complexity of the quantum state evolution and measurement in SN theory, which is different for different quantum measurement prescriptions. Previous theoretical investigations on the SN-theory phenomenology in the optomechanical experimental platform were carried out under the so-called post/pre-selection prescription. This work will focus on the phenomenology of SN theory under the causal-conditional prescription, which fits the standard intuition on the continuous quantum measurement process. Under the causal-conditional prescription, the quantum state of the test mass mirrors is conditionally and continuously prepared by the projection of the outgoing light field in the optomechanical system. Therefore a gravitational potential depends on the quantum trajectory is created and further affects the system evolution. In this work, we will systematically study various experimentally measurable signatures of SN theory under the causal-conditional prescription in an optomechanical system, for both the self-gravity and the mutual gravity scenarios. Comparisons between the SN phenomenology under three different prescriptions will also be carefully made. Moreover, we find that quantum measurement can induce a classical correlation between two different optical fields via classical gravity, which is difficult to be distinguished from the quantum correlation of light fields mediated by quantum gravity.

description: Ophiolitic rocks of the Lachlan Orogen are important because they can provide key information used to refine existing tectonic models for the orogen. This study focuses on the serpentinite belts within the greater Tumut region of the Lachlan Orogen in southeastern Australia. U–Pb, Lu–Hf, O isotopic and trace-element data collected on zircons from a plagiogranite of the Wambidgee Serpentinite Belt are consistent with their crystallisation from mantle-derived melts. Their juvenile Hf-isotope compositions, with εHf ranging from +7 to +14, and δ18O values ranging from 4.35 to 5.07‰, are close to typical mantle values and clearly within the range defined for zircons from plagiogranites of ophiolitic complexes worldwide. When combined with zircon data available for the Coolac Serpentinite and recent petrogenetic modelling for the Coolac Serpentinite Belt, a new U–Pb age of 486 ± 3 Ma of the Wambidgee zircons constrains the age of formation of oceanic lithosphere in the greater Tumut region to Cambro-Ordovician.KEY POINTSAn age of 486 ± 3 Ma is reported for zircons from plagiogranite of the Wambidgee Serpentinite Belt in the Tumut region, southern Lachlan Orogen.We tentatively conclude that all serpentinite belts of the Tumut region may be of the same age, at the Cambrian–Ordovician boundary.This Cambro-Ordovician age provides the best estimate for oceanic crust formation in the greater Tumut region.

description: In this paper we study the synergy among the future accelerator (T2HK), future atmospheric (ICAL) and future reactor (JUNO) neutrino experiments to determine the neutrino mass ordering. T2HK can measure the mass ordering only for favorable values of $δ_{\rm CP}$, whereas the mass ordering sensitivity of JUNO is dependent on the energy resolution. Our results show that with a combination of T2HK, ICAL and JUNO one can have a mass ordering sensitivity of 7.2 $σ$ even for the unfavorable value of $δ_{\rm CP} = 0^\circ$ for T2HK and most conservative value of JUNO energy resolution of 5$\%/\sqrt{E(MeV)}$. The synergy mainly comes because different oscillation channels prefer different values of $|Δm_{31}^2|$ in the fit when the mass-ordering $χ^2$ is minimized. In this context we also study: (i) effect of varying energy resolution of JUNO, (ii) the effect of longer run-time of ICAL, (iii) effect of different true values of $θ_{23}$ and (iv) effect of octant degeneracy in the determination of neutrino mass ordering.

They are generally defined as 0.1 to 1 μm membrane particles that expose the anionic phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS) and membrane antigens representative of their cellular origin [1]. It is now well recognized that MP behave as vectors of bioactive molecules, playing a role in blood coagulation, inflammation, cell activation and cancer metastasis. In clinical practice, circulating MP originating from blood and vascular cells are elevated in a variety of prothrombotic and inflammatory disorders, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune conditions, infectious diseases and cancer [1-3]

We previously showed that ICs composed of antigen and antibodies targeting CD40 ligand (CD40L) or β2 Glycoprotein I (β2GPI) induce ITT in mice transgenic for human FcγRIIa (hFcR) but not wild-type controls (which lack FcγRIIa). Here we evaluated the contribution of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor, CalDAG-GEFI, and P2Y12, key regulators of Rap1 signaling in platelets, to ITT induced by these clinically relevant ICs.

description: In this paper, a macroblock classification method is proposed for various video processing applications involving motions. Based on the analysis of the Motion Vector field in the compressed video, we propose to classify Macroblocks of each video frame into different classes and use this class information to describe the frame content. We demonstrate that this low-computation-complexity method can efficiently catch the characteristics of the frame. Based on the proposed macroblock classification, we further propose algorithms for different video processing applications, including shot change detection, motion discontinuity detection, and outlier rejection for global motion estimation. Experimental results demonstrate that the methods based on the proposed approach can work effectively on these applications.

description: Almost a century ago engineering became a non-military branch in Turkey with the establishment of the Engineering School/Mühendis Mekteb-i Âlisi and Mehmed Refik Fenmen was the first headmaster. Mehmed Refik endeavoured to teach technical issues to the public as a science communicator and he tried to bring a new education style. He wrote some new lecture books for physics classes and found an experimental museum to support the lectures. There are many details he has done in his time with following his footprints in the institutional records of İTU. Also, these revolutionary acts in those times’ education make present-day people surprised. The purpose of this study is to compare the engineering education in İTU in the times of Mehmed Refik, 1910-12, and recent times. There is various education running in 29 engineering departments, hence Mehmed Refik was an electrical engineer, this study focused on electrical and electronics engineering education to show more precise results. This study shows how engineering education a century apart changed. What have we benefited from in the history of engineering education and what we may hange today?

description: In this article, we introduce the notion of pre-$(n+2)$-angulated categories as higher dimensional analogues of pre-triangulated categories defined by Beligiannis-Reiten. We first show that the idempotent completion of a pre-$(n+2)$-angulated category admits a unique structure of pre-$(n+2)$-angulated category. Let $(\mathscr{C},\mathbb{E},\mathfrak{s})$ be an $n$-exangulated category and $\mathscr{X}$ be a strongly functorially finite subcategory of $\mathscr{C}$. We then show that the quotient category $\mathscr{C}/\mathscr{X}$ is a pre-$(n+2)$-angulated category.These results allow to construct several examples of pre-$(n+2)$-angulated categories. Moreover, we also give a necessary and sufficient condition for the quotient $\mathscr{C}/\mathscr{X}$ to be an $(n+2)$-angulated category.

description: Elevated plasma fibrinogen associates with arterial thrombosis in humans and promotes thrombosis in mice by increasing fibrin formation and thrombus fibrin content. Fibrinogen is composed of six polypeptide chains: (Aα, Bβ, and γ)2. Alternative splicing of the γ chain leads to a dominant form (γA/γA) and a minor species (γA/γ’). Epidemiologic studies have detected elevated γA/γ’ fibrinogen in patients with arterial thrombosis, suggesting this isoform promotes thrombosis. However, in vitro data show that γA/γ’ is anticoagulant due to its ability to sequester thrombin, and suggest its expression is upregulated in response to inflammatory processes.
Gravitational orbits in the expanding universe revisited

description: Modified Newtonian equations for gravitational orbits in the expanding universe indicate that local gravitationally bounded systems like galaxies and planetary systems are unaffected by the expansion of the Universe. This result is derived under the assumption of the space expansion described by the standard FLRW metric. In this paper, an alternative metric is applied and the modified Newtonian equations are derived for the space expansion described by the conformal FLRW metric. As shown by Vavryčuk (Frontiers in Physics, 2022), this metric is advantageous, because it properly predicts the cosmic time dilation and fits the SNe Ia luminosity observations with no need to introduce dark energy. Surprisingly, the Newtonian equations based on the conformal FLRW metric behave quite differently than those based on the standard FLRW metric. In contrast to the common opinion that local systems resist the space expansion, the results for the conformal metric indicate that all local systems expand according to the Hubble flow. The evolution of the local systems with cosmic time is exemplified on numerical modelling of spiral galaxies. The size of the spiral galaxies grows consistently with observations and a typical spiral pattern is well reproduced. The theory predicts flat rotation curves without an assumption of dark matter surrounding the galaxy. The theory resolves challenges to the $Λ$CDM model such as the problem of faint satellite galaxies, baryonic Tully-Fisher relation or the radial acceleration relation. Furthermore, puzzles in the solar system are successfully explained such as the Pioneer anomaly, the Faint young Sun paradox, the Moon's and Titan's orbit anomalies or the presence of rivers on ancient Mars.
