description: Surrogate models have several uses in engineering design, including speeding up design optimization, noise reduction, test measurement interpolation, gradient estimation, portability, and protection of intellectual property. Traditionally, surrogate models require that all training data conform to the same parametrization (e.g. design variables), limiting design freedom and prohibiting the reuse of historical data. In response, this paper proposes Graph-based Surrogate Models (GSMs) for trusses. The GSM can accurately predict displacement fields from static loads given the structure's geometry as input, enabling training across multiple parametrizations. GSMs build upon recent advancements in geometric deep learning which have led to the ability to learn on undirected graphs: a natural representation for trusses. To further promote flexible surrogate models, the paper explores transfer learning within the context of engineering design, and demonstrates positive knowledge transfer across data sets of different topologies, complexities, loads and applications, resulting in more flexible and data-efficient surrogate models for trusses.

Perception : the justification of perceptual beliefs
Creators: name: Acock, Malcolm
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The thesis is an enquiry into what provides the basis in justification for perceptual knowledge and beliefs. Thus, it is solely concerned with what has been called 'epistemic perception' Non-epistemic perception - perception in which, or as a result of which, no beliefs are acquired - is not discussed. The question of whether there is non-epistemic perception is not addressed In the early chapters of the thesis a major philosophical problem of perception is stated and "traditional" philosophical theories of perception are discussed with particular attention to how adequately these theories deal with the problem. In addition to emphasizing that the traditional theories are not satisfactory, this review illuminates a feature common to the theories and a natural way of stating the problem. This feature - the Cartesian doctrine of perception - is the thesis that perceptual awareness is the justificatory basis for perceptual knowledge and beliefs. Having established that the Cartesian doctrine is a tenet of the traditional theories, it is argued that the doctrine is unsatisfactory and that no theory that accepts it can be adequate. The criticisms made of the doctrine can be divided into two broad classes. First, there are arguments that rest on the actual occurrence or logical possibility of some phenomenon. For example, it is argued that because perception can occur without awareness (the logical possibility of subliminal perception, the occurrence of proprioception, etc.) the Cartesian doctrine cannot be correct. Further, it is argued that some phenomena (the optical "blind spot", stabilised retinal images, etc.) necessitate that even in those cases where perception is accompanied by-awareness, the awareness is not always the basis for the justification of perceptual beliefs and knowledge". Second, it is argued that awareness cannot be a relatum of the justification relation and that the Cartesian doctrine is thus ruled out a priori. Some attempts to argue the contrary are examined and rejected. Further, it is argued that the Cartesian doctrine can be replaced by the doxastic thesis - the claim that only beliefs can justify perceptual beliefs and knowledge. Some putative problems with the doxastic thesis are disposed of in arguing that the thesis can form a satisfactory element of a philosophical theory of perception. D.M. Armstrong's theory of perception is briefly examined and it is concluded that he appears to accept the Cartesian doctrine of perception. It is argued that, despite this, a theory could be developed which is very similar to Armstrong's except in that it rejects the Cartesian doctrine in favour of the doxastic thesis. It is argued that rejecting the Cartesian doctrine of perception is an instance of a larger general advance in episte-mology - an advance that has already been accomplished in philosophical accounts of knowledge and memory.

description: This study elucidates a mechanochemical polymerization reaction towards a hyper-crosslinked polymer as an alternative to conventional solvent-based procedures. The swift and solvent-free Friedel–Crafts alkylation reaction yields a porous polymer with surface areas of up to 1720 m2g −1 and pore volumes of up to 1.55 cm3g −1. The application of LAG (liquid-assisted grinding) revealed a profound impact of the liquid´s boiling point on the textural properties of the obtained polymer materials. Finally, the materials are characterized by vapour sorption experiments with benzene and cyclohexane.

description: Cyclotrimerization of biomass-based alkyl methyl ketones exhibits great potential as a route to biomass-derived aromatics by a sustainable valorization of biorefinery streams. In this study, acetone is used as a model reagent to screen solid acid catalysts for the aldol condensation reaction to the aromatic trimer mesitylene. From a broad catalyst screening promising activity is shown by the cation exchange resin Purolite CT275DR, the beta-zeolite H-BEA 35, and aluminosilicate Siralox 70/170 HPV which are used to further investigate reaction parameters. Acetone conversion and mesitylene yield increase with temperature and time, while yield of the intermediate mesityl oxide decreases. This effect is also found for higher quantities of catalyst acid sites and is accompanied with an increased side product formation which negatively affects total product selectivity. Analyzing the reaction progress shows a significant drop in catalyst productivity after an initial start-up phase. This observation is linked to a deactivation of the catalyst which involves water that is formed during the condensation reaction of acetone. Obtained results confirm the general viability of the aromatization of alkyl methyl ketones and can be considered the first step to an alternative sustainable route to biomass-derived aromatics compared to other currently discussed routes.

description: Numerous online stock image libraries offer high quality yet copyright free images for use in marketing campaigns. To assist advertisers in navigating such third party libraries, we study the problem of automatically fetching relevant ad images given the ad text (via a short textual query for images). Motivated by our observations in logged data on ad image search queries (given ad text), we formulate a keyword extraction problem, where a keyword extracted from the ad text (or its augmented version) serves as the ad image query. In this context, we propose VisualTextRank: an unsupervised method to (i) augment input ad text using semantically similar ads, and (ii) extract the image query from the augmented ad text. VisualTextRank builds on prior work on graph based context extraction (biased TextRank in particular) by leveraging both the text and image of similar ads for better keyword extraction, and using advertiser category specific biasing with sentence-BERT embeddings. Using data collected from the Verizon Media Native (Yahoo Gemini) ad platform's stock image search feature for onboarding advertisers, we demonstrate the superiority of VisualTextRank compared to competitive keyword extraction baselines (including an $11\%$ accuracy lift over biased TextRank). For the case when the stock image library is restricted to English queries, we show the effectiveness of VisualTextRank on multilingual ads (translated to English) while leveraging semantically similar English ads. Online tests with a simplified version of VisualTextRank led to a 28.7% increase in the usage of stock image search, and a 41.6% increase in the advertiser onboarding rate in the Verizon Media Native ad platform.

description: We generalize the Laplace resonance among three satellites, S1, S2 , and S3, by considering different ratios of the mean-longitude variations. These resonances, which we call Laplace-like, are classified as first order in the cases of the 2:1&2:1, 3:2&3:2, and 2:1&3:2 resonances, second order in the case of the 3:1&3:1 resonance, and mixed order in the case of the 2:1&3:1 resonance. We consider a model that includes the gravitational interaction with the central body together with the effect due to its oblateness, the mutual gravitational influence of the satellites S1, S2, and S3 and the secular gravitational effect of a fourth satellite S 4 , which plays the role of Callisto in the Galilean system. In addition, we consider the dissipative effect due to the tidal torque between the inner satellite and the central body. We investigate these Laplace-like resonances by studying different aspects: (i) we study the survival of the resonances when the dissipation is included, taking two different expressions for the dissipative effect in the case of a fast- or a slowly rotating central body, (ii) we investigate the behavior of the Laplace-like resonances when some parameters are varied, specifically, the oblateness coefficient, the semimajor axes, and the eccentricities of the satellites, (iii) we analyze the linear stability of first-order resonances for different values of the parameters, and (iv) we also include the full gravitational interaction with S 4 to analyze its possible capture into resonance. The results show a marked difference between first-, second-, and mixed-order resonances, which might find applications when the evolutionary history of the satellites in the Solar System are studied, and also in possible actual configurations of extrasolar planetary systems.

description: This paper is devoted to the calculation by Mellin-Barnes transform of a especial class of integrals. It contains double integrals in the position space in d = 4-2e dimensions, where e is parameter of dimensional regularization. These integrals contribute to the effective action of the N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The integrand is a fraction in which the numerator is a logarithm of ratio of spacetime intervals, and the denominator is the product of powers of spacetime intervals. According to the method developed in the previous papers, in order to make use of the uniqueness technique for one of two integrations, we shift exponents in powers in the denominator of integrands by some multiples of e. As the next step, the second integration in the position space is done by Mellin-Barnes transform. For normalizing procedure, we reproduce first the known result obtained earlier by Gegenbauer polynomial technique. Then, we make another shift of exponents in powers in the denominator to create the logarithm in the numerator as the derivative with respect to the shift parameter delta. We show that the technique of work with the contour of the integral modified in this way by using Mellin-Barnes transform repeats the technique of work with the contour of the integral without such a modification. In particular, all the operations with a shift of contour of integration over complex variables of two-fold Mellin-Barnes transform are the same as before the delta modification of indices, and even the poles of residues coincide. This confirms the observation made in the previous papers that in the position space all the Green function of N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be expressed in terms of UD functions.

description: Given a family of k disjoint connected polygonal sites in general position and of total complexity n, we consider the farthest-site Voronoi diagram of these sites, where the distance to a site is the distance to a closest point on it. We show that the complexity of this diagram is O(n), and give an O(n log^3 n) time algorithm to compute it. We also prove a number of structural properties of this diagram. In particular, a Voronoi region may consist of k-1 connected components, but if one component is bounded, then it is equal to the entire region.
title: The Cold War in British Guiana, 1953-1966: a case study of Anglo American cooperation
Creators: name: Ramcharan, Lilowatti
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2003

description: This thesis looks at how the cold war impacted on a small colony, British Guiana, between 1953 and 1966. The period was the height of the cold war. A local Marxist nationalist leader, Dr. Cheddi Jagan, had started the country's first political party and was agitating for independence. He won the legislative elections in 1953 under a Constitution providing for internal self-government and governed for 133 days before being removed from office for allegedly wanting to make British Guiana a communist state. The question arose: was he a communist leader aligned to Moscow or a left-wing patriot wanting to pursue a socialist course. What was the evidence that led to his removal as a Communist? How did the British and American Governments deal with the situation. How did they cooperate in dealing with it? Cheddi Jagan would subsequently win elections until 1964 when, although obtaining the highest number of seats in the legislature under a system of proportional representation introduced at the insistence of the USA, he would not be given an opportunity to form a government. He was effectively removed from power at the insistence of the USA and it would take twenty-eight years, until after the Cold War had ended, for him to win another election. The archival evidence indicates significant Anglo-American cooperation in keeping Jagan out of power because of his Marxist inclinations. Materials in the British and American national archives, and in the libraries of Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson, show significant Anglo-American cooperation in the areas of diplomatic relations, economic cooperation, intelligence-sharing, trades unions relations, debates in international organisations, and civil interactions. Materials examined at the George Meany Memorial Archives, and not hitherto written about, show the extent to which the AFIJCIO was active on the ground during periods of severe internal unrest in the 1960s, and show local leaders in their pay. American leaders have acknowledged the role of the C.I.A. in the country at this time but the C.I.A. papers have reportedly been destroyed. However, the papers examined at the George Meany Memorial Archives are vivid on the role of foreign operatives in British Guiana at this time. This thesis is the first to have looked at Anglo-American cooperation in containing an alleged communist threat in British Guiana.

We further extend our results to higher moments of the component size of a random vertex, and prove that they are jointly asymptotically normal.

description: This study was conducted to assess the influence that perceived organization support (POS) has on commitment of business educators in federal tertiary institutions in south-south, Nigeria. Survey research design was adopted for the study. Population for the study was 92. Owing to the small number, the entire population was used as the sample size. Data for the study was sourced from both primary and secondary source. Primary source was from administered copies of questionnaire. Research instrument was a structured Likert scale questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and simple linear regression statistical tools were used in analyzing the collated data. Findings revealed that fairness had a moderated correlation value of R=0.519 with a standardized coefficient β=0.418. Supervisor support showed a standardized coefficient of β=0.536. Conclusively, perceived organizational support has a significant positive influence on the commitment of business educators in federal tertiary institutions in south-south, Nigeria. Since POS is seen as the extent to which the organization values the employees’ contribution and cares about their well-being, it is believed that the employees should reciprocate such perceived support with increased commitment, loyalty and performance.
Transient behavior of heat transport in a thermal switch

description: We study the time-dependent transport of heat in a nanoscale thermal switch. The switch consists of left and right leads that are initially uncoupled. During switch-on the coupling between the leads is abruptly turned on. We use the nonequilibrium Green's function formalism and numerically solve the constructed Dyson equation to determine the nonperturbative heat current. At the transient regime we find that the current initially flows simultaneously into both of the leads and then afterwards oscillates between flowing into and out of the leads. At later times the oscillations decay away and the current settles into flowing from the hotter to the colder lead. We find the transient behavior to be influenced by the extra energy added during switch-on. Such a transient behavior also exists even when there is no temperature difference between the leads. The current at the long-time limit approaches the steady-state value independently calculated from the Landauer formula.

Effect of Annealed Disorder on Phase Separation Kinetics and Aging Phenomena in Fluid Mixtures

description: We use state-of-the-art molecular dynamics simulations to study the effects of annealed disorder on the phase separating kinetics and aging phenomena of a segregating binary fluid mixture. In the presence of disorder, we observe a dramatic slowing down in the phase separation dynamics. The domain growth follows the power-law with a disorder-dependent exponent. Due to the energetically favorable positions, the domain boundary roughens which modifies the correlation function and structure factor to a non-Porod behavior. The correlation function and structure factor provide clear evidence that the superuniversality does not hold in our system. The role of annealed disorder on the non-equilibrium aging dynamics is studied qualitatively by computing the two-time order parameter autocorrelation function. The decay of the correlation function slows down significantly with the disorder. This quantity exhibits scaling laws with respect to the ratio of the domain length at the observation time and the age of the system. We find the scaling laws hold good for the disordered system and therefore, robust and generic to such segregating fluid mixtures.

description: Up until now a complete scan in all phenomenologically relevant directions of the MSSM at the TeV scale for performing global fit has not been done. Given the imminent start of operation of the LHC, this is a major gap on our quest to discovering and understanding the physical implications of low energy supersymmetry. The main reason for this is the large number of parameters involved that makes it computationally extremely expensive using the traditional methods. In this talk I demonstrate that with advanced sampling techniques the problem is solvable. The results from the explored 24-parameter TeV scale MSSM (phenoMSSM) are remarkably distinct from previous studies and are independent of models for supersymmetry breaking and mediation mechanisms. Hence they are a more robust guide to searches for supersymmetry and dark matter.

description: Self-monitoring tools, which support clinicians’ work through collection of patient generated data, have been used increasingly in chronic care. Their appropriation by the patients is crucial but at the same time can be problematic, as unexpected use of tools used as a support for clinical decisions might lead to wrong decisions. In this poster, we present preliminary findings from an ethnographic study from a pelvic cancer rehabilitation clinic. We present an empirical example of a patient who appropriated a self-monitoring application to register her pain in an unexpected way. Our findings aim to understand better how to support appropriation of self-monitoring tool in a clinical setting.

One of the few areas where tangible objects are rare to see is the museum. Our research tries to combine various directions to improve the experience in such places: creating a tangible object to tackle the vanishing visitors of the museum. In a heterogenous group of actors, we collaboratively developed a socio-technical infrastructure, consisting physical, virtual and social elements to increase visitors and attractivity inside the museum, but also building a living community interested in participating and writing local history.

description: IT security is a cost-intensive aspect of SMEs. Critical infrastructures, in particular, are increasingly dependent on good IT security. Increasing security, however, can limit the usability of existing applications and work processes. Based on empirical studies inclusive workshops in the field, we designed a lightweight tool and integrated it into an inter-organizational knowledge exchange platform. With the tool, we want to offer an opportunity to get experience and feedback directly from those employees, who are directly affected by IT security controls. So, the IT security officer can react to it and gain more insight into the impact of IT security controls. They are in the position to administrate the tool’s backend company-internally, while chosen data can be exported and discussed on the inter-organizational platform. Hence, this tool supports a community building effect on organizational and inter-organizational level.

description: Laser cooling of rare-earth doped solids has been demonstrated across a wide range of material platforms, inspiring the development of simple phenomenological models such as the four-level model to elucidate the universal properties of laser cooling under various operating conditions. However, these models usually require the input of full absorption spectra that must be provided experimentally or by additional complicated atomic modeling. In this letter, we propose that a four-level model, when extended to admit effective energy levels adaptive to the pumping photon energy, can accurately predict the cooling efficiency as a function of temperature and pumping frequency using only few inputs such as the absorption coefficient measured at a single frequency and temperature. Our model exploits the quasi-equilibrium properties of the excitation of rare-earth ions for the determination of the effective four energy levels. The model is validated against published experimental results for a span of materials including ytterbium/thulium-doped glass and crystals. With the verified model, we derive explicit expressions for the optimal frequency and the operating bandwidth of pumping laser. Our model significantly simplifies the modeling process of laser cooling, and is expected to stimulate further development of optical refrigeration.

description: The concordance model of cosmology contains several unknown components such as dark matter and dark energy. Many proposals have been made to describe them by choosing an appropriate potential for a scalar field. We study four models in the realm of loop quantum cosmology (LQC): the Chaplygin gas, an inflationary and radiation-like potential, quintessence and an anti-Chaplygin gas. For the latter we show that all trajectories start and end with a type II singularity and, depending on the inital value, may go through a bounce. On the other hand the evolution under the influence of the first three scalar fields behaves classically at times far away from the big bang singularity and bounces as the energy density approaches the critical density.

description: We study exactness of groups and establish a characterization of exact groups in terms of the existence of a continuous linear operator, called an invariant expectation, whose properties make it a weak counterpart of an invariant mean on a group. We apply this operator to show that exactness of a finitely generated group $G$ implies the vanishing of the bounded cohomology of $G$ with coefficients in a new class of modules, which are defined using the Hopf algebra structure of $\ell_1(G)$.

description: We present a novel design of a waveguide to microstrip or coplanar waveguide transition using a unilateral finline taper. The transition from the unilateral finline mode to the TEM microstrip mode is done directly, avoiding the antipodal finline tapers that have commonly been employed. This results in significant simplification of the design and fabrication, and shortening of the chip length, thereby reducing insertion loss. In this paper we shall present designs at 90 GHz that can be employed in superconducting tunnel junction mixers or Transition Edge Sensor bolometers, and scale-model measurements at 15 GHz.

description: We present leading-order (LO) cross sections for the production of three top quarks ($tt\tb$,$t\tb\tb$) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We find a total LO cross section for triple-top production in the Standard Model of $σ\approx 2 $ fb at $\sqrt{s}=14$ TeV and we give examples of two new physics models which have a significant enhancement to this channel. In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), there are regions of parameter space where the decays of gluino pairs into final states including three tops has a cross section $σ\approx 41$ fb. In a leptophobic $Z'$ model featuring right-handed couplings of the $u$-quark to the top, we find $σ\approx 28$ fb. With efficient identification and reconstruction of the top quarks, the triple-top signal could potentially provide evidence for new physics at the LHC.

description: The StarScan machine at the U.S. Naval Observatory (USNO) completed measuring photographic astrograph plates to allow determination of proper motions for the USNO CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC) program. All applicable 1940 AGK2 plates, about 2200 Hamburg Zone Astrograph plates, 900 Black Birch (USNO Twin Astrograph) plates, and 300 Lick Astrograph plates have been measured. StarScan comprises of a CCD camera, telecentric lens, air-bearing granite table, stepper motor screws, and Heidenhain scales to operate in a step-stare mode. The repeatability of StarScan measures is about 0.2 micrometer. The CCD mapping as well as the global table coordinate system has been calibrated using a special dot calibration plate and the overall accuracy of StarScan x,y data is derived to be 0.5 micrometer. Application to real photographic plate data shows that position information of at least 0.65 micrometer accuracy can be extracted from course grain 103a-type emulsion astrometric plates. Transformations between "direct" and "reverse" measures of fine grain emulsion plate measures are obtained on the 0.3 micrometer level per well exposed stellar image and coordinate, which is at the limit of the StarScan machine.

title: Understanding and minimising the impact of rape myths on juror decision-making

description: Sexual violence is a global problem at epidemic proportions which urgently requires effective responses from criminal justice systems. However, most victim-survivors of sexual violence in the UK are being denied justice, as evidenced by consistently declining conviction numbers despite record levels of reporting. Undoubtedly, the justice gap presents a complex problem with devastating impacts on the victim-survivors, with the widescale acceptance of rape myths affecting jury decision-making frequently identified as a contributing factor. The literature has extensively illustrated the influence of rape myth endorsement on evaluations of complainants and verdict decisions, with calls for jury education to be implemented to minimise their negative impact. However, the lack of an articulated theoretical model explaining how rape myth acceptance impacts juror decision-making has stunted the development of a focused educational intervention for jurors in cases of sexual violence.
Thus, this thesis presents five empirical studies to address these aims and test the potential of a short comprehensive educational video for jurors with the potential for implementation in rape trials across the UK. Specifically, these studies identified and assessed suitable and realistic trial materials, examined the fit and validity of the proposed theoretical model using advanced structural equation modelling techniques and finally, evaluated the effectiveness of the newly developed educational video in reducing the impact of rape myths on juror verdicts and complainant evaluations.
Findings from these studies suggest that (a) the victim-focused rape myth factors victims lie, victims ask for it and not really rape influence jurors' verdict decisions indirectly via complainant credibility, responsibility, and empathy evaluations, respectively; (b) the proposed theoretical model is robust in explaining juror decisions when there are changes in the rape case presented; (c) complainant credibility judgements are the most malleable element in the model, in terms of both case variation and intervention success and, finally, (d) the impact of rape myths on juror decision-making can be attenuated with a short video intervention. The implications of these findings for research and the UK criminal justice system are discussed, alongside methodological limitations.
