description: Animal horns play an important role during intraspecific combat. This work investigates the microstructure and mechanical properties of horns from four representative ruminant species: the bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis), domestic sheep (Ovis aries), mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus) and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), aiming to understand the relation between evolved microstructures and mechanical properties. Microstructural similarity is found where disc-shaped keratin cells attach edge-to-edge along the growth direction of the horn core (longitudinal direction) forming a lamella; multiple lamellae are layered face to face along the impact direction (radial direction, perpendicular to horn core growth direction), forming a wavy pattern surrounding a common feature, the tubules. Differences among species include the number and shape of the tubules, the orientation of aligned lamellae and the shape of keratin cells (keratinocytes). Water absorption tests reveal that the pronghorn horn has the largest water-absorbing ability due to the presence of nanopores in the keratin cells. The loading direction (compressive and tensile) and level of hydration vary among the horns from different species. The differences in mechanical properties among species may relate to their different fighting behaviours: high stiffness and strength in mountain goat to support the forces during stabbing; high tensile strength in pronghorn for interlocked pulling; impact energy absorption properties in domestic and bighorn sheep to protect the skull during butting. These design rules based on evolutionary modifications among species can be applied in synthetic materials to meet different mechanical requirements.
Photographic frames of immigration in a polarized media environment

description: Based on the political communication and public opinion on immigration literatures, this paper develops and tests hypotheses for the visual news coverage of 2019 migration crisis at the Mexico-United States border. The news websites used here, the Huffington Post, the New York Times, the Washington Times and Breitbart News, span a polarized ideological spectrum. The way they use photography to frame the immigration crisis and immigrants should be consistent with their respective political biases and those of their audiences. Looking at 987 images used by these outlets for two months, the findings presented here are largely consistent with the expectations of the referenced literatures. The more conservative a news sources, the likelier it is to visually link immigration to criminality and to portray immigrants as criminals and mostly males. The more liberal the source, the more it will depict the situation at the border as a humanitarian one or link it to the economic benefits of immigration. It will also portray immigrants as family members and show more mobilization against government policies. Looking at the visual coverage of immigration during that period also allows us to uncover two specific editorial practices driving polarization. First, more radical sources tend to make a rhetorical use of images at the expense of a more strictly informational approach. Second, Breitbart displays systematically stronger frames and exploits the images’ potential for implicit messaging to advance more radical positions than the Huffington Post, which implies that polarization might be skewed to the right, at least in the case of media discourses on immigration.

description: In questo lavoro di ricerca si desiderano analizzare le potenzialità e l'influenza che il Dynamic Geometry Software GeoGebra potrebbe avere nella percezione della matematica insegnata in una classe di scuola media. Si vuole verificare, inoltre, se l’utilizzo dello strumento GeoGebra possa determinare un cambiamento stesso della matematica, con la comparsa di nuove competenze di tipo disciplinare. Per effettuare l’indagine di ricerca, si è deciso di ricorrere ad un approccio quantitativo in quanto gli obiettivi prefissati non erano di facile realizzazione. La ricerca si è svolta in una classe di quarta media corso attitudinale tramite un itinerario didattico svolto in aula informatica dove gli studenti hanno potuto utilizzare GeoGebra in diversi modi. La raccolta dei dati è avvenuta tramite la somministrazione di questionari online sottoposti all’inizio ed al termine del percorso. Dall’analisi dei risultati ottenuti si è potuto verificare che il metodo d’indagine scelto ha evidenziato una modifica della percezione della matematica insegnata ed ha fornito dei presupposti interessanti su come lo strumento GeoGebra abbia modificato l’oggetto d’indagine matematica. Presupposti che potrebbero costituire una eventuale base per futuri studi. Materia: matematica
Deep learning approaches for crowd counting in images
Creators: name: Jiang, Minyang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Crowd analysis has been widely used in everyday life. Among different crowd analysis tasks, crowd counting is the most basic but essential one that measures the number of people in a particular area. Such counting and crowd density information is crucial to determine the maximum occupancy of a room or public area to address safety concerns. Counting by hand can yield an accurate number, but it is a tedious job and may not fulfill the time requirement for analysis. Therefore, automated crowd counting for accurately estimating the number of people in crowded scenes is needed. Deep learning has shown beyond human-level accuracy in many computer vision tasks. Recently, researchers have shown that deep learning methods can achieve the state-of-the-art performance in the task of crowd counting in images. The majority of these methods are based on density regression, where a density map is predicted and its integral is further calculated to obtain the final count. However, this learned density map is uninterpretable and could deviate largely from the actual person distribution even if the final count is accurate. Besides, existing crowd counting methods are mainly based on cumbersome feature extraction networks and can not be deployed in edge devices with limited computational power. In this thesis work, we proposed two models that tackle the above interpretability and computational efficiency concerns respectively: the joint crowd counting and localization model extends traditional counting only methods and provides precise localization results without additional model complexity; the ShuffleCount is a computationally efficient and accurate model that is trained through the specially designed knowledge distillation process and can satisfy the real-time crowd analysis requirement on edge devices. We evaluated both models by training and testing on public crowd counting benchmark datasets. Both quantitative and qualitative results are obtained and compared with existing state-of-the-art methods. Our superior results show the potential of deploying the proposed methods to real-life applications for efficient crowd analysis. The methods proposed in both JCCL and ShuffleCount can be generalized to other ideas to improve the interpretability and computational efficiency of the models.

description: We study the role of demographic fluctuations in typical endemics as exemplified by the stochastic SIRS model. The birth-death master equation of the model is simulated using exact numerics and analysed within the linear noise approximation. The endemic fixed point is unstable to internal demographic noise, and leads to sustained oscillations. This is ensured when the eigenvalues ($λ$) of the linearised drift matrix are complex, which in turn, is possible only if detailed balance is violated. In the oscillatory state, the phases decorrelate asymptotically, distinguishing such oscillations from those produced by external periodic forcing. These so-called quasicycles are of sufficient strength to be detected reliably only when the ratio $|Im(λ)/Re(λ)|$ is of order unity. The coherence or regularity of these oscillations show a maximum as a function of population size, an effect known variously as stochastic coherence or coherence resonance. We find that stochastic coherence can be simply understood as resulting from a non-monotonic variation of $|Im(λ)/Re(λ)|$ with population size. Thus, within the linear noise approximation, stochastic coherence can be predicted from a purely deterministic analysis. The non-normality of the linearised drift matrix, associated with the violation of detailed balance, leads to enhanced fluctuations in the population amplitudes.

description: This paper proposes an information theory approach to estimate the number of changepoints and their locations in a climatic time series. A model is introduced that has an unknown number of changepoints and allows for series autocorrelations, periodic dynamics, and a mean shift at each changepoint time. An objective function gauging the number of changepoints and their locations, based on a minimum description length (MDL) information criterion, is derived. A genetic algorithm is then developed to optimize the objective function. The methods are applied in the analysis of a century of monthly temperatures from Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

description: Neutron stars are the densest objects in the Universe. They have microscopically homogeneous core and heterogeneous crust. In particular, there may be a specific layer inside neutron stars, the mantle, which consists of substantially non-spherical nuclei immersed in a background of relativistic degenerate electrons and quasi-free neutrons. In this paper we reconsider transverse shear modulus for cylindrical phases of the mantle within the framework of compressible liquid drop model. We demonstrate that transverse shear affects the shape of nuclear clusters: their cross-section becomes elliptical. This effect reduces respective elastic constant. Using a simple model we perform all derivations analytically and obtain the expression for the transverse shear modulus, which can be useful for astrophysical applications.

description: We derive a microscopic effective action for superconducting contacts with arbitrary transmission distribution of conducting channels. Provided fluctuations of the Josephson phase remain sufficiently small our formalism allows to fully describe fluctuation and interaction effects in such systems. As compared to the well studied tunneling limit our analysis yields a number of qualitatively new features which occur due to the presence of subgap Andreev bound states in the system. We investigate the equilibrium supercurrent noise and evaluate the electron-electron interaction correction to the Josephson current across superconducting contacts. At T=0 this correction is found to vanish for fully transparent contacts indicating the absence of Coulomb effects in this limit.

description: We report new total intensity visible light high contrast imaging of the TW Hya disk taken with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). This represents the first published images of the disk with STIS since 2016, when a moving shadow on the disk surface was reported. We continue to see the shadow moving in a counter-clockwise fashion, but in these new images the shadow has evolved into two separate shadows, implying a change in behavior for the occulting structure. Based on radiative transfer models of optically thick disk structures casting shadows, we infer that a plausible explanation for the change is that there are now two misaligned components of the inner disk. The first of these disks is located between 5-6au with an inclination of 5.5\arcdeg and PA of 170\arcdeg, the second between 6-7au with and inclination of 7\arcdeg and PA of 50\arcdeg. Finally, we speculate on the implications of the new shadow structure and determine that additional observations are needed to disentangle the nature of TW Hya's inner disk architecture.

description: Propagation of high-current relativistic electron beam (REB) in plasma is relevant to many high-energy astrophysical phenomena as well as applications based on high-intensity lasers and charged-particle beams. Here we report a new regime of beam-plasma interaction arising from REB propagation in medium with fine structures. In this regime, the REB cascades into thin branches with local density hundred times the initial value and deposits its energy two orders of magnitude more efficiently than that in homogeneous plasma, where REB branching does not occur, of similar average density. Such beam branching can be attributed to successive weak scatterings of the beam electrons by the unevenly distributed magnetic fields induced by the local return currents in the skeletons of the porous medium. Results from a model for the excitation conditions and location of the first branching point with respect to the medium and beam parameters agree well with that from pore-resolved particle-in-cell simulations.

We show that piezoelectric response of such a superlattice can be tuned both in terms of sign and magnitude with a choice of its components. As these superlattices with nonswitchable polarization do not undergo ferroelectric transitions, we predict them to exhibit a robust piezoelectric response with weaker temperature dependence compared to their bulk counterparts.

Tra i primi in Europa, Funky Snowboards, un brand italiano caratterizzato da un’identità forte e controcorrente. In pochi anni diventa un punto di riferimento nel mondo dello snowboard a livello mondiale. La storia del marchio però subisce un’interruzione: Funky è costretta a fermare la sua produzione. Lo storico brand italiano torna sul mercato dopo 15 anni di assenza. Ma il mondo dello snowboard cambia velocemente, e tra le novità più recenti vi è senz’altro la crescente partecipazione femminile. Le donne sono un target che è stato preso in considerazione solo negli ultimi anni in questo sport. La maggioranza dei partecipanti rimane maschile, ed è quindi a loro che le aziende si rivolgono con maggior attenzione e riguardo. Funky è un brand storico e controcorrente e per questo è stata scelta la sua voce per promuovere e sdoganare la presenza femminile in questo mondo. Funky Woman è in primis un modo diverso di pensare allo snowboard: uno sport aperto a chiunque, che, come tutte le discipline, può essere praticato anche tra donne. Nasce la prima piattaforma online dedicata alla community femminile di snowboard.

description: We study the evolution of orbital patterns in ferromagnetic layered ruthenates due to the competition of Coulomb interactions, compressive c axis and orthorhombic distortions in the presence of a polarizing orbital field coupled to the angular momentum. By means of the exact diagonalization on a 2x2 cluster and a cluster embedded analysis where inter-plaquette interaction is treated on mean field level, we determine the ground-state phase diagram. Specifically, we demonstrate that, via the activation of two or three of t_2g local orbital configurations, an external field applied along different symmetry directions can lead to inequivalent orbital correlated states. Starting from an antiferro-orbital pattern, for the easy axis case an orbital ordered phase is induced, having strong next nearest neighbors ferro-orbital correlations. Otherwise, a field applied along the hard axis leads a reduction of local orbital moment in a way to suppress the orbital order.

The pharmacogenomics of hepatitis C : optimizing effectiveness and safety on treatment
Creators: name: Lin, Jennifer Jae
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Hepatitis C infection affects an estimated 71 million people globally and is responsible for 399,000 fatalities annually. Research advancing hepatitis C treatment practices are rapidly advancing, with abundant focus given to increasing optimizing efficacy of treatment and safety of the patients taking them. Considered a key drug in treating hepatitis C, sofosbuvir is widely used though expensive. Failed treatments are costly to the healthcare system and expose patients unnecessarily to risks of severe adverse reactions. Treatment failures are presumed to be due to viral or clinical risk factors, while patient-specific genetic factors are largely unexplored. This study recruited 359 real-world patients to assess the influence of genetic variation on the risks sofosbuvir-based treatment failure. The study replicated associations with IFNL4 (rs12979860; OR:2.25, 95%CI:1.15-4.06; P:0.0071), and found variants novel predictors in CES1 (rs115629050 or rs4513095; odds ratio (OR):5.43, 95%CI:1.64-18.01; P:0.0057) which activates sofosbuvir and IL10RB (rs2834167; OR:1.81, 95%CI:1.01-3.24; P:0.047) the receptor for IFNL4. Combining genetic risk factors with treatment regimen choice significantly improved the ability to predict treatment failure (P:0.0080). Once a staple of interferon-based regimens, ribavirin is currently used to increase treatment effectiveness in difficult-to-treat chronic hepatitis C patients. Its usefulness is constrained by the development of ribavirin-induced anemia requiring dosage modification or discontinuation in 30% of treated patients. Genetic variants in ITPA have been identified to predict this adverse effect, however known clinical and genetic factors do not entirely explain the risk. In 188 patients, this study replicated the associations of ITPA and VDR genetic variants with the development of ribavirin-induced anemia (rs1127354; OR:0.13, 95%CI:0.04-0.41, P:8.66x10⁻⁵; and rs1544410; OR:1.65, 95%CI:1.01-2.70, P:0.0437). Genome-wide analyses identified a novel association in GYPC (rs6741425; OR:0.12, 95%CI:0.04-0.34, P: 2.94 x10⁻⁶) that protects against ribavirin-induced anemia by increasing erythrocyte structural strength. Addition of GYPC significantly improved the model for predicting ribavirin-induced anemia (P:0.00216) in comparison to ITPA and VDR alone. Overall, patient-specific genetic factors were found to identify patients with double the risk of sofosbuvir treatment failure and five-fold reduced likelihood of serious ribavirin-induced anemia. The implementation of these findings can allow for patients to receive safer, more effective therapy sooner.

description: Exon or cassette duplication is an important means of expanding protein and functional diversity through mutually exclusive splicing. However, the mechanistic basis of this process in non-arthropod species remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that MRP1 genes underwent tandem exon duplication in Nematoda, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Mollusca, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, and early-diverging Chordata but not in late-diverging vertebrates. Interestingly, these events were of independent origin in different phyla, suggesting convergent evolution of alternative splicing. Furthermore, we showed that multiple sets of clade-conserved RNA pairings evolved to guide species-specific mutually exclusive splicing in Arthropoda. Importantly, we also identified a similar structural code in MRP exon clusters of the annelid, Capitella teleta, and chordate, Branchiostoma belcheri, suggesting an evolutionarily conserved competing pairing-guided mechanism in bilaterians. Taken together, these data reveal the molecular determinants and RNA pairing-guided evolution of species-specific mutually exclusive splicing spanning more than 600 million years of bilaterian evolution. These findings have a significant impact on our understanding of the evolution of and mechanism underpinning isoform diversity and complex gene structure.
Wiener Process with Reflection in Non-Smooth Narrow Tubes

description: Wiener process with instantaneous reflection in narrow tubes of width ε<<1 around axis x is considered in this paper. The tube is assumed to be (asymptotically) non-smooth in the following sense. Let $V^ε(x)$ be the volume of the cross-section of the tube. We assume that $V^ε(x)/ε$ converges in an appropriate sense to a non-smooth function as ε->0. This limiting function can be composed by smooth functions, step functions and also the Dirac delta distribution. Under this assumption we prove that the x-component of the Wiener process converges weakly to a Markov process that behaves like a standard diffusion process away from the points of discontinuity and has to satisfy certain gluing conditions at the points of discontinuity.

description: Purpose: The aim of this work was, a) to assess two treatment planning strategies for accounting CT-artifacts introduced by temporary tissue-expanders(TTEs); b) to evaluate the dosimetric impact of two commercially available and one novel TTE. MethodsThe CT artifacts were managed using two strategies. 1) Identifying the metal in the RayStation treatment planning software (TPS) using image window level adjustments, delineate a contour enclosing the artifact, and setting the density of the surrounding voxels to unity (RS1). 2) Registering a geometry template with dimensions and materials from the TTEs (RS2). Both strategies were compared for DermaSpan, AlloX2, and AlloX2-Pro TTEs using Collapsed-Cone-Convolution (CCC) in RayStation TPS, Monte Carlo simulations (MC) using TOPAS, and films. Wax slab phantoms with TTEs and breast phantoms with TTEs balloons were made and irradiated with a 6 MV AP beam and partial arc, respectively. Results: For the wax slab phantoms, the dose differences between RS1 and RS2 were 0.5% for DermaSpan and AlloX2 but 3% for AlloX2-Pro. From TOPAS simulations of RS2, the impact in dose distributions caused by the magnet attenuation was (6.4+-0.4)%, (4.9+-0.7)%, and (2.0+-0.9)% for DermaSpan, AlloX2, and AlloX2-Pro. With breast phantoms, maximum differences in DVH parameters between RS1 and RS2 were as follows. For AlloX2 at the posterior region: (2.1+-1.0)%, (1.9+-1.0)% and (1.4+-1.0)% for D1, D10, and average dose, respectively. For AlloX2-Pro at the anterior region (-1.0+-1.0)%, (-0.6+-1.0)% and (-0.6+-1.0)% for D1, D10 and average dose, respectively. The impact in D10 caused by the magnet was at most (5.5+-1.0)% and (-0.8+-1.0)% for AlloX2 and AlloX2-Pro, respectively. Conclusion: This study showed that the highest differences with respect to measurements occurred with RS1 and can be mitigated if a template with the actual port geometry and materials is used.

description: We report here the in orbit performance of the CCD camera (MAXI/SSC) onboard the International Space Station (ISS). It was commissioned in August, 2009. This is the first all-sky survey mission employing X-ray CCDs. It consists of 32 CCDs each of which is 1 inch square. It is a slit camera with a field of view of 1deg.5x 90deg and scans the sky as the rotation of the ISS. The CCD on the SSC is cooled down to the working temperature around -60degC by the combination of the peltier cooler, a loop heat pipe and a radiator. The standard observation mode of the CCD is in a parallel sum mode (64-binning). The CCD functions properly although it suffers an edge glow when the Sun is near the field of view (FOV) which reduces the observation efficiency of the SSC down to about 30%. The performance of the CCD is continuously monitored both by the Mn-K X-rays and by the Cu-K X-rays. There are many sources detected, not only point sources but extended sources. Due to the lack of the effective observation time, we need more observation time to obtain an extended emission analysis extraction process.
