description: In nonholonomic mechanical systems with constraints that are affine (linear nonhomogeneous) functions of the velocities, the energy is typically not a first integral. It was shown in [Fassò and Sansonetto, JNLS, 26, (2016)] that, nevertheless, there exist modifications of the energy, called there moving energies, which under suitable conditions are first integrals. The first goal of this paper is to study the properties of these functions and the conditions that lead to their conservation. In particular, we enlarge the class of moving energies considered in [Fassò and Sansonetto, JNLS, 26, (2016)]. The second goal of the paper is to demonstrate the relevance of moving energies in nonholonomic mechanics. We show that certain first integrals of some well known systems (the affine Veselova and LR systems), which had been detected on a case-by-case way, are instances of moving energies. Moreover, we determine conserved moving energies for a class of affine systems on Lie groups that include the LR systems, for a heavy convex rigid body that rolls without slipping on a uniformly rotating plane, and for an $n$-dimensional generalization of the Chaplygin sphere problem to a uniformly rotating hyperplane.

"Over them was King Ardban." History, narrative, the Haran Gawaita and the origin of the Mandaeans
Creators: name: Deegan, Michael
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The primary question of the long argued origin of the Mandaeans and the credibility of the defective text Haran Gawaita (HG) as evidence for their Palestinian origin is addressed in the present thesis. However, despite over three centuries of debate, there exists no irrefutable external textual evidence of the existence of Mandaeans outside of their present locations in Iran and Iraq. While various factors such as lexical terminology and features of ritual have been argued to support a migration to the East, since its publication in 1953, the HG has been argued to present a 'historical' account of a journey to Media. While debate about Mandaean origin has shifted from East to West and back again, a Palestinian origin has been favoured since the mid-twentieth century, although there have been voices of dissent. Notwithstanding its central role, HG has only been translated once and the many textual and linguistic problems addressed in a cursory and random manner, and a historical migration account has been read into several lines of the text. Therefore, a close reading of the text is a central features of the present study. The present exegesis not only addresses the many textual ambiguities in the text, but presents a new translation, an identification of the underlying sources and genres, a narratological analysis, and a sociological understanding of the importance of origin narratives to communities such as the Mandaeans. The study concludes that a Mandaean migration from Palestine to the East is not clearly supported by the Haran Gawaita, and the identification of 'history' in the text has been arbitrary. Alternative hypotheses are suggested such an earlier settlement in the West by a community of proto-Mandaeans who then returned East in the early centuries of the Common Era.

We will then investigate the transparency of Plücker embeddings of projective and polar grassmannians and spin embeddings of half-spin geometries and dual polar spaces of orthogonal type. As an application of our results on transparency, we will derive several Chow-like theorems for polar grassmannians and half-spin geometries.

description: We present ALMA Band 6 dust and gas observations of the transition disk around RXJ1604.3-2130 A, known to feature nearly symmetric shadows in scattered light. We study the 12CO line channel maps and moment maps of the line of sight velocity and peak intensity. We fit a Keplerian model of the channel-by-channel emission to study line profile differences, and produce deprojected radial profiles for all velocity components. The 12CO emission shows a cavity inwards of ~56 au and within the dust continuum ring at 81 au. The azimuthal brightness variations in the 12CO line and dust continuum are broadly aligned with the shadows detected in scattered light observations. We find a strong localized non-Keplerian feature towards the west within the continuum ring (at R=41±10 au and PA=280 ± 2°). A tightly wound spiral is also detected which extends over 300° in azimuth, possibly connected to the localized non-Keplerian feature. Finally, a bending of the iso-velocity contours within the gas cavity indicates a highly perturbed inner region, possibly related to the presence of a misaligned inner disk. While broadly aligned with the scattered light shadows, the localized non-Keplerian feature cannot be solely due to changes in temperature. Instead, we interpret the kinematical feature as tracing a massive companion located at the edge of the dust continuum ring. We speculate that the spiral is caused by buoyancy resonances driven by planet-disk-interactions. However, this potential planet at ∼41 au cannot explain the gas-depleted cavity, the low accretion rate and the misaligned inner disk, suggesting the presence of another companion closer-in.

On the existence of Pareto solutions for polynomial vector optimization problems

description: We are interested in the existence of Pareto solutions to the vector optimization problem $$\text{Min}_{\,\mathbb{R}^m_+} \{f(x) \,|\, x\in \mathbb{R}^n\},$$ where $f\colon\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^m$ is a polynomial map. By using the {\em tangency variety} of $f$ we first construct a semi-algebraic set of dimension at most $m - 1$ containing the set of Pareto values of the problem. Then we establish connections between the Palais--Smale conditions, $M$-tameness, and properness for the map $f$. Based on these results, we provide some sufficient conditions for the existence of Pareto solutions of the problem. We also introduce a generic class of polynomial vector optimization problems having at least one Pareto solution.

Human visual perception inspired background subtraction

Publisher: name: Monash University

description: Background subtraction is an essential processing task for moving foreground detection. Existing approaches are reliable only when scenario-specific configuration is possible; otherwise, they exhibit highly unpredictable performance across a wide range of dynamic scenarios due to extensive dependence on statistical observations and context-specific constraints while lacking means for exploiting perceptual characteristics of the operating environment. This thesis investigates a theoretical framework for developing a novel human visual perception inspired background subtraction technique for unconstraint video analytics. The technique, named perceptual mixture-of-Gaussians (PMOG), emphasises on several perceptual characteristics of observed statistics for better exploitation of the operating environment to exhibit robustness in dynamic unconstrained scenarios. For instance, how human visual system perceives noticeable intensity deviation from the background; what is the perceptual tolerance level in distinguishing distorted intensity measures; and how realistic predictions can be made regarding an observation are the key questions investigated in the thesis. Addressing these questions has enabled PMOG to ensure high performance stability with superior detection quality across dynamic scenarios as well as optimal computational resource utilisation throughout the system lifetime. PMOG is then modified to improve responsiveness in unconstrained scenarios by incorporating a low-cost estimator of suspected foreground activities. The detection quality of PMOG is further enhanced by integrating two independent hypotheses originating from the same underlying model to maximise complementary aspects and minimise computational overhead. Comprehensive experimental evaluation is performed to establish superiority of PMOG against the state-of-the-art. Finally, the efficacy of PMOG is validated in the application domain of event detection.
Visualising Angkor : new perspectives in virtual history.
Creators: name: Chandler, Thomas Theodore
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Much of the shape and structure of our modern world, from airports to mobile phones, begins as design prototypes in a virtual 3D (three dimensional) space before being manufactured into reality. This thesis examines how the 3D modelling process might cast backwards to prototype what we know of the past. In contrast to the mystique of a dead city that has guided the visual conception of Angkor for more than a century, this study seeks to reframe the virtual image of Angkor as a living one. The key visualisation technology engaged in this endeavour is 3D animation, which at once encapsulates motion, three spatial dimensions, and sequential time. In addition to drawing upon the established traditions of cartography, site surveys and historical and archaeological illustration, this thesis will overview the translation of a diverse range of sources into the 3D medium to visualise a virtual Angkor at three spatial scales; landscapes, sites and eye witness views. First, aggregates of 3D models will be organised into settlement features and patterned over archaeological landscapes derived from the Greater Angkor Project map. Second, the enclosure of Angkor Wat, the centre of Angkor Thom and the peripheral settlement of He Phka are modelled with a view to visualising the intersections between location, context and the extended site. Third, we will examine the complicated modelling procedures unique to spatial scale populated by reconstructed, and animated, human figures and animals. The three scales of landscapes, sites and eye witness views are next revisited in sustained animation studies. Here we can move to reconsider the entire assemblage of models created so far as a cohesive whole. In this 'cumulative model' of a virtual Angkor, the whole is demonstrated to be greater than the sum of its parts. After a discussion of theimplications of what standards and protocols might be ventured for similar studies, this thesis concludes with suggestions for future research directions in a virtual Angkor. Recently the UK Committee for Computing Research has added "Bringing the Past to Life for the Citizen" as a grand challenge. In seeking to reappraise the 3D model as an evolving, investigative tool rather than a definitive and peremptory vision, it will be demonstrated that vast potentials exist in the application of 3D modelling and animation technologies for the interpretation of the past.

The role of knowledge based practices in the effective management and delivery of information systems development projects
Creators: name: Owen, Jillian
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The changing focus of ISD has been driven by the rapid evolution of the technology itself. In this instance projects are used to implement changes, including the delivery of ISD initiatives, that would be difficult to deliver within the normal operating environment. The socio-technical nature ofISD projects has driven the shift in focus of these projects from product delivery to facilitating organizational change. ISD projects operate in an unstructured environment and are becoming more complex in terms of technology, the interrelationships between stakeholders, evolving project scope and organizational expectations. In this context existing tools, routines and methodologies to manage and deliver ISO projects may not be sufficient to resolve the complexity that emerges during the project life span. The resolution of complex issues requires access to a broad range of experience and knowledge and the ability to apply that knowledge to the specific requirements of the project. Knowledge based practicesrepresent an innovative and flexible means to address the intrinsic complexity of ISO projects. These knowledge-based practices draw on practitioners' knowledge and experience. The research presented in this thesis argues for the inclusion of knowledge-based processes to expand the repertoire of project management methods, processes, techniques and tools to address this complexity. The thesis develops a theoretical framework that incorporates a knowledge-based view of project management.

description: Most of our knowledge on insect cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) stems from analytical techniques based on gas-chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). However, this method has its limits under standard conditions, particularly in detecting compounds beyond a chain length of around C40. Here, we compare the CHC chain length range detectable by GC-MS with the range assessed by silver-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (Ag-LDI-MS), a novel and rarely applied technique on insect CHCs, in seven species of the order Blattodea. For all tested species, we unveiled a considerable range of very long-chain CHCs up to C58, which are not detectable by standard GC-MS technology. This indicates that general studies on insect CHCs may frequently miss compounds in this range, and we encourage future studies to implement analysis techniques extending the conventionally accessed chain length ranges. Furthermore, we incor-porate 3D scanned insect body surface areas as an additional factor for the comparative quantifi-cation of extracted CHC amounts between our study species. CHC quantity distributions differed considerably when adjusted for body surface areas as opposed to directly assessing extracted CHC amounts, suggesting that a more accurate evaluation of relative CHC quantities can be achieved by taking body surface areas into account.

Viewpoint invariant human activity recognition using pose series
Creators: name: Htike, Zaw Zaw
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: There is a growing interest in the problem of vision-based human activity recognition, motivated by its numerous promising applications in many domains. Because the camera position is arbitrary in many applications, practical human activity recognition systems should be viewpoint invariant. Nevertheless, the viewpoint issue has been neglected by the vast majority of computer vision researchers because of the inherent difficulty of training their systems across all possible viewpoints. Several state-of-the-art activity recognition systems claim to be viewpoint invariant. These can be broadly categorized by their sensory requirements: those requiring multiple synchronized cameras and those requiring only a single uncalibrated camera. While multi-camera systems work well, they are often not feasible, or practical, or both, in many domains and applications. Current single-camera systems are either too complex, hence not real-time capable, or require activity training data from multiple views, which again is not always feasible or practical, or both, in many domains and applications. Therefore, this thesis proposes a novel generic framework to recognize and classify human activities from a monocular video source from arbitrary viewpoints without requiring training activities using multiple views. The proposed framework comprises two stages: human pose recognition and human activity recognition. In the pose recognition stage, an ensemble of invariant pose models performs inference on each video frame. Each pose model estimates the probability that the given frame contains the corresponding pose. Over a sequence of frames, invariant pose models collectively concoct a multivariate time series. The activity recognition stage employs time series analysis to classify activities. The system has been rigorously tested on a number of standard benchmark datasets and has been found to outperform current state-of-the-art systems in terms of both its processing speed and classification accuracy. The framework developed in this thesis, as supported by the results, lays the foundation for monocular viewpoint invariant human activity recognition. Moreover, this framework can be extended and tailored to multiple domains and applications with diverse requirements.

description: This study provides sufficient conditions for the temporal monotonic decay of enstrophy for two-dimensional perturbations traveling in the incompressible, viscous, plane Poiseuille and Couette flows. Extension of J. L. Synge's procedure (1938) to the initial-value problem allowed us to find the region of the wavenumber-Reynolds number map where the enstrophy of any initial disturbance cannot grow. This region is wider than the kinetic energy's one. We also show that the parameters space is split in two regions with clearly distinct propagation and dispersion properties.

description: El uso de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) y los Recursos Educativos Digitales (RED) en el aula de clase permite mejorar el proceso de aprendizaje de los estudiantes; específicamente las competencias relacionadas con la comprensión lectora. La articulación de las TIC y los RED con estrategias como la ludificación y la gamificación en entornos virtuales de aprendizaje (EVA), motivan al estudiante de manera consciente o inconsciente de realizar actividades que mejoran la comprensión lectora (nivel literal). Estas estrategias permiten que los estudiantes se transformen en sujetos activos de su aprendizaje, vinculando dentro de sus actividades académicas el juego. La investigación se encamina a fortalecer la compresión lectora desde el nivel literal. Para ello se emplea tres RED en un LMS (MilAulas); se utiliza instrumentos como la entrevista, talleres, encuestas.
Ent: A Multipartite Entanglement Measure, and Parameterization of Entangled States
Creators: name: Hedemann, Samuel R.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: A multipartite entanglement measure called the ent is presented and shown to be an entanglement monotone, with the special property of automatic normalization. Necessary and sufficient conditions are developed for constructing maximally entangled states in every multipartite system such that they are true-generalized X states (TGX) states, a generalization of the Bell states, and are extended to general nonTGX states as well. These results are then used to prove the existence of maximally entangled basis (MEB) sets in all systems. A parameterization of general pure states of all ent values is given, and proposed as a multipartite Schmidt decomposition. Finally, we develop an ent vector and ent array to handle more general definitions of multipartite entanglement, and the ent is extended to general mixed states, providing a general multipartite entanglement measure.

description: Numerical methods for stochastic partial differential equations typically estimate moments of the solution from sampled paths. Instead, we shall directly target the deterministic equations satisfied by the first and second moments, as well as the covariance. In the first part, we focus on stochastic ordinary differential equations. For the canonical examples with additive noise (Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process) or multiplicative noise (geometric Brownian motion) we derive these deterministic equations in variational form and discuss their well-posedness in detail. Notably, the second moment equation in the multiplicative case is naturally posed on projective-injective tensor product spaces as trial-test spaces. We construct Petrov-Galerkin discretizations based on tensor product piecewise polynomials and analyze their stability and convergence in these natural norms. In the second part, we proceed with parabolic stochastic partial differential equations with affine multiplicative noise. We prove well-posedness of the deterministic variational problem for the second moment, improving an earlier result. We then propose conforming space-time Petrov-Galerkin discretizations, which we show to be stable and quasi-optimal. In both parts, the outcomes are illustrated by numerical examples.

Assessment of Corporate Governance Practices in the Ethiopian Insurance Industry (The Case of Selected Four Insurance Companies)
Creators: name: Solomon, Wolde
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: It is the separation of ownership and control that produced the concept of corporate governance. Since governance is the centre point for corporate success, it needs the attention of all stakeholders. Unless given a focus it deserves in managing a business, it may result undesirable long term consequences. In the current business set up, Insurance Companies are among the industries that are implementing the concept of corporate governance in the context of Ethiopia. Due to the sensitivity nature of the business and an irreplaceable role these companies play in the macro economy of a given country, poor corporate governance practice may have a macroeconomic impact that could potentially affect the whole economy. As a result, this research paper was prepared with the objective of assessing and understanding the level of corporate governance practice in Insurance Companies in Ethiopia in light of National bank of Ethiopia"s Directive and OECD principles, so as to improve the understanding of various stakeholders and also to shed light on the adoption of best practices and principles into the country"s corporate governance system. Major components like board of directors, shareholders, Executive directors, supervisory organ and disclosure, were taken as major assessment concepts. A questionnaire prepared addressing these concepts were distributed and related documents were also reviewed. The data collected were analysed using SPSS application. The results show that, Insurance Companies in Ethiopia are in good corporate governance foundation because of the regulatory organ strict supervision on each and every action of the market. However, some important and critical manifestations of good corporate governance are lacking both from regulatory side and from the Companies side that would promote the practice some steps higher. This will have impact on the existing knowledge of the practice and further policy measures should be updated and enhanced.

ER= EPR and Non-Perturbative Action Integrals for Quantum Gravity

description: In this paper, we construct and calculate a non-perturbative path integrals in a multiply-connected space-time. This is done by by summing over homotopy classes of paths. The topology of the space-time is defined by Einstein-Rosen bridges (ERB) forming from the entanglement of quantum foam described by virtual black holes. As these `bubbles' are entangled, they ar econnected by Plankian ERB's because of the $ER=EPR$ conjecture. Hence the space-time will possess a large first Betti number $B1$. For any compact 2-surface in the space-time, the topology (in particular the homotopy) of that surface is not-trivial, due to the large number of Plankian ERB's that define homotopy though this surface. The quantisation of space-time with this topology - along with the proper choice of the 2-surfaces - is conjectured to allow anon-perturbative path integrals of quantum gravity theory over the space-time manifold.
