description: A priori state vector and error covariance computation for the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) is described. The original UKF propagates multiple sigma points to compute the a priori mean state vector and the error covariance, resulting in a higher computational time compared to the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). In the proposed method, the posterior mean state vector is propagated and then the sigma points at the current time step are calculated using the first-order Taylor Series approximation. This reduces the computation time significantly, as demonstrated using two example applications which show improvements of 90.5% and 92.6%. This method shows the estimated state vector and the error covariance are accurate to the first-order Taylor series terms. A second method using Richardson Extrapolation improves prediction accuracy to the second-order Taylor series terms. This is implemented on the two examples, improving efficiency by 85.5% and 86.8%.

Scaling and interaction of self-similar modes in models of high-Reynolds number wall turbulence

description: Previous work has established the usefulness of the resolvent operator that maps the terms nonlinear in the turbulent fluctuations to the fluctuations themselves. Further work has described the self-similarity of the resolvent arising from that of the mean velocity profile. The orthogonal modes provided by the resolvent analysis describe the wall-normal coherence of the motions and inherit that self-similarity. In this contribution, we present the implications of this similarity for the nonlinear interaction between modes with different scales and wall-normal locations. By considering the nonlinear interactions between modes, it is shown that much of the turbulence scaling behaviour in the logarithmic region can be determined from a single arbitrarily chosen reference plane. Thus, the geometric scaling of the modes is impressed upon the nonlinear interaction between modes. Implications of these observations on the self-sustaining mechanisms of wall turbulence, modelling and simulation are outlined.

description: We analyzed both HCN J=1-0 and HNC J=1-0 line profiles to study the inflow motions in different evolutionary stages of massive star formation: 54 infrared dark clouds (IRDCs), 69 high-mass protostellar object (HMPOs), and 54 ultra-compact HII regions (UCHIIs). The inflow asymmetry in HCN spectra seems to be prevalent throughout all the three evolutionary phases, with IRDCs showing the largest excess in blue profile. In the case of HNC spectra, the prevalence of blue sources does not appear, excepting for IRDCs. We suggest that this line is not appropriate to trace inflow motion in evolved stages of massive star formation because the abundance of HNC decreases at high temperatures. This result spotlights the importance of considering chemistry in the dynamics study of massive star-forming regions. The fact that the IRDCs show the highest blue excess in both transitions indicates that the most active inflow occurs in the early phase of star formation, i.e., the IRDC phase rather than in the later phases. However, mass is still inflowing onto some UCHIIs. We also found that the absorption dips of the HNC spectra in 6 out of 7 blue sources are red-shifted relative to their systemic velocities. These red-shifted absorption dips may indicate global collapse candidates, although mapping observations with better resolution are needed to examine this feature in more detail.

This collection of datasets contains a digital representation of a geological map of mainland New Zealand and the Chatham Islands, suitable for use in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software. The first edition digital geological map was released in 2014 and was built from 21 GIS-based versions of the 1:250 000 geological maps published under the "QMAP" (for "Quarter-million MAP") project between 1996-2010. In 2018 the digital data was extensively revised and international standards (GeoSciML) and vocabularies (CGI Geoscience Vocabularies) were implemented where possible. The 2020 third edition built on the 2018 digital data and included new mapping from a number of regions together with data collected for the Chatham Islands as part of QMAP Christchurch. This 2023 fourth edition incorporates new mapping in south Auckland and an extensive revision of the active faults and adjacent geology following updates in the New Zealand Active Fault Database in the lower North Island and south Auckland areas.

description: This paper describes our deep learning-based approach to multilingual aspect-based sentiment analysis as part of SemEval 2016 Task 5. We use a convolutional neural network (CNN) for both aspect extraction and aspect-based sentiment analysis. We cast aspect extraction as a multi-label classification problem, outputting probabilities over aspects parameterized by a threshold. To determine the sentiment towards an aspect, we concatenate an aspect vector with every word embedding and apply a convolution over it. Our constrained system (unconstrained for English) achieves competitive results across all languages and domains, placing first or second in 5 and 7 out of 11 language-domain pairs for aspect category detection (slot 1) and sentiment polarity (slot 3) respectively, thereby demonstrating the viability of a deep learning-based approach for multilingual aspect-based sentiment analysis.

description: In this paper we introduce the $Γ$ value, a new value for cooperative games with transferable utility. We also provide an axiomatic characterization of the $Γ$ value based on a property concerning the so-called necessary players. A necessary players of a game is one without which the characteristic function is zero. We illustrate the performance of the $Γ$ value in a particular cost allocation problem that arises when the owners of the apartments in a building plan to install an elevator and share its installation cost; in the resulting example we compare the proposals of the $Γ$ value, the equal division value and the Shapley value in two different scenarios. In addition, we propose an extension of the $Γ$ value for cooperative games with transferable utility and with a coalition structure. Finally, we provide axiomatic characterizations of the coalitional $Γ$ value and of the Owen and Banzhaf-Owen values using alternative properties concerning necessary players.

description: Combining an old idea of Olver and Rosenau with the classification of second and third order homogeneous Hamiltonian operators we classify compatible trios of two-component homogeneous Hamiltonian operators. The trios yield pairs of compatible bi-Hamiltonian operators whose structure is a direct generalization of the bi-Hamiltonian pair of the KdV equation. The bi-Hamiltonian pairs give rise to multi-parametric families of bi-Hamiltonian systems. We recover known examples and we find new integrable systems whose central invariants are non-zero; this shows that new examples are not Miura-trivial.

description: We have been conducting a survey for distant solar system objects beyond the Kuiper Belt edge (~50 AU) with new wide-field cameras on the Subaru 8 meter and CTIO 4 meter telescopes. We are interested in the orbits of objects that are decoupled from the giant planet region in order to understand the structure of the outer solar system, including whether a massive planet exists beyond a few hundred AU as first reported by Trujillo and Sheppard (2014). In addition to discovering extreme trans-Neptunian objects detailed elsewhere, we have found several objects with high perihelia (q>40 AU) that differ from the extreme and inner Oort cloud objects due to their moderate semi-major axes (5020 degrees). These moderate objects likely obtained their unusual orbits through combined interactions with Neptune's mean motion resonances and the Kozai resonance, similar to the origin scenarios for 2004 XR190. We also find the distant 2008 ST291 has likely been modified by the MMR+KR mechanism through the 6:1 Neptune resonance. We discuss these moderately eccentric, distant objects along with some other interesting low inclination outer classical belt objects like 2012 FH84 discovered in our ongoing survey.

description: We demonstrate a 12 quantum dot device fabricated on an undoped Si/SiGe heterostructure as a proof-of-concept for a scalable, linear gate architecture for semiconductor quantum dots. The device consists of 9 quantum dots in a linear array and 3 single quantum dot charge sensors. We show reproducible single quantum dot charging and orbital energies, with standard deviations less than 20% relative to the mean across the 9 dot array. The single quantum dot charge sensors have a charge sensitivity of 8.2 x 10^{-4} e/root(Hz) and allow the investigation of real-time charge dynamics. As a demonstration of the versatility of this device, we use single-shot readout to measure a spin relaxation time T1 = 170 ms at a magnetic field B = 1 T. By reconfiguring the device, we form two capacitively coupled double quantum dots and extract a mutual charging energy of 200 microeV, which indicates that 50 GHz two-qubit gate operation speeds are feasible.

description: We investigate the vibrational properties of Pt- and Pd-phthalocyanine (PtPc and PdPc) molecules on Ag(111) with high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS). In the monolayer regime, both molecules exhibit long range order. The vibrational spectra prove a flat adsorption geometry. The red shift of vibrational modes and the presence of asymmetric vibrational peaks suggest a moderate interaction of the molecules with the substrate, accompanied by a static charge transfer from the metal to the molecules. The appearance of a particular vibrational mode, which (i) belongs to the $\mathrm{B_{1g}}$ representation of the original fourfold $\mathrm{D_{4h}}$ molecular symmetry group and which (ii) exhibits interfacial dynamical charge transfer (IDCT), proves that a preferential charge transfer from the Ag surface into one of the originally doubly degenerate lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs) of $\mathrm{E_g}$ symmetry takes place, i.e. the electronic degeneracy is lifted and the molecule-surface complex acquires the twofold symmetry group $\mathrm{C_{2v}}$. The vibration-based analysis of orbital degeneracies, as carried out here for PtPc/Ag(111) and PdPc/Ag(111), is not restricted to these cases. It is particularly useful whenever the presence of multiple molecular in-plane orientations at the interface makes the analysis of orbital degeneracies with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy difficult.
Onset of nonequilibrium in a driven Anderson insulator

Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)

description: The onset of nonequilibrium in a driven Anderson-insulator is identified by monitoring the system with two-thermometers. Features of nonequilibrium appear at surprisingly weak drive intensity demonstrating, among other things, that conductivity may not be a reliable thermometer for ensuring linear-response conditions. In addition, the spectral contents of the applied field could be more important to take the system out of equilibrium than its absorbed power. Ensuing hot-electron transport effects and the nontrivial role phonons play in driven quantum systems are pointed out.

The reaction model has no free adjustable parameter and applicable to reactions at various deuteron incident energies $E_d$ and with both stable and unstable nuclei. The predicted $σ_d^{\rm R}$ are consistent with those evaluated by a phenomenological optical potential for $E_d\leq 200$ MeV in which the potential has been parametrized. A simple formula of $σ_d^{\rm R}$ up to $E_d=1$ GeV, as a function of $E_d$, the target mass number $A$ and its atomic number $Z$, is given.

description: According to Munoz-Gutierrez et al. (2015) the orbit of comet 1P/Halley is chaotic with a surprisingly small Lyapunov time scale of order its orbital period. In this work we analyse the origin of chaos in Halley's orbit and the growth of perturbations, in order to get a better understanding of this unusually short time scale. We perform N-body simulations to model Halley's orbit in the Solar System and measure the separation between neighbouring trajectories. To be able to interpret the numerical results, we use a semi-analytical map to demonstrate different growth modes, i.e. linear, oscillatory or exponential, and transitions between these modes. We find the Lyapunov time scale of Halley's orbit to be of order 300 years, which is significantly longer than previous estimates in the literature. This discrepancy could be due to the different methods used to measure the Lyapunov time scale. A surprising result is that next to Jupiter, also encounters with Venus contribute to the exponential growth in the next 3000 years. Finally, we note an interesting application of the sub-linear, oscillatory growth mode to an ensemble of bodies moving through the Solar System. Whereas in the absence of encounters with a third body the ensemble spreads out linearly in time, the accumulation of weak encounters can increase the lifetime of such systems due to the oscillatory behaviour.

description: The $\vec{k}.\vec{p}$ perturbation theory in semiconductor modifies some spin related parameters of the semi-conducting system. Furthermore, renormalization of the Kane model parameters occurs when temperature appears in the scenario. In this paper, we have analysed the consequences of this renormalized Kane parameters on some spin transport issues. It is noteworthy to study that the temperature corrected scenario, explained here can open up a new direction towards the spin calorimetric applications in semiconductors.

description: Some kinds of psychoactive drugs have the structures which are called split-ring resonators (SRRs). SRRs might result in negative permittivity and permeability simultaneously in electromagnetic field. Simultaneous negative indexes can lead to the famous phenomenon of negative refraction. This optical property makes it possible to distinguish synthetic cannabinoids from other abusive psychoactive drugs in the UV-vis region. This optical method is non-damaged and superior in forensic science. In this paper, we use tight-binding model calculating the permittivity and permeability of the main ingredients of synthetic cannabinoids. At the same time, we give two more results of zolpidem and caffeine. Further we discuss the negative refraction of the category of zepam qualitatively.

description: In this paper, we present preliminary results of the determination of the charm quark mass $\hat{m}_c$ from QCD sum rules of moments of the vector current correlator calculated in perturbative QCD at ${\cal O} (\hat α_s^3)$. Self-consistency between two different sum rules allow to determine the continuum contribution to the moments without requiring experimental input, except for the charm resonances below the continuum threshold. The existing experimental data from the continuum region is used, then, to confront the theoretical determination and reassess the theoretic uncertainty.

Scoring performance: the function of music in contemporary theatre and circus
Creators: name: Baston, Kim
Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2023

description: Abstract: This thesis is a cross-disciplinary investigation of how music and theatre interact and proposes a framework of terms for the analysis of music within the theatrical misè-en-scene (Chapter Two). As original research, this framework is proposed as appropriate for two scholarship disciplines, theatrical performance studies and performed music, as these relate both to reception and to artistic intention. The framework is also proposed as a practical means of communication between these two artistic practices. Within this framework, music is analyzed according to four broad processes: music as structure; music as intervention; cinematic music; and music as engagement. Drawing on scholarship in film music (e.g. Gorbman 1987), performance studies (e.g. Auslander 2006; McAuley 2000) and cultural and theoretical musicology (e.g. Scruton 1999; Frith 1996), it identifies and discusses the common uses of music in theatre, arguing that there are six frames under which the function of music can be considered: emotional, diegetic, metadiegetic, temporal, spatial and formal. The elements of music contributing to this framing (tonal content, formal structure, timbre, signal processing, improvisation and genre) are also considered. The framework of terms (abbreviated to how, what, why) is applied in reception of script-based performance (Chapter Three), within the physical text of circus performance (Chapter Four) and, by contrast, in one artistic process of production (Chapter Five). The "visual object" of music is also discussed, examining how the musician in performance can be theorized within the theatrical context (Chapter Six). While genres such as opera and musical theatre are commonly studied, there is less scholarship considering theatre in which music is "incidental" (Savage 2001; Pavis 1998). But in the hybrid practices of contemporary performance that encompass both the script-driven play and the complex set of practices that can be considered as "physical theatre", the analysis of the role of music should be considered integral, rather than "incidental".

description: We consider the transmission of spatially correlated analog information in a wireless sensor network (WSN) through fading single-input and multiple-output (SIMO) multiple access channels (MACs) with low-latency requirements. A lattice-based analog joint source-channel coding (JSCC) approach is considered where vectors of consecutive source symbols are encoded at each sensor using an n-dimensional lattice and then transmitted to a multiantenna central node. We derive a minimum mean square error (MMSE) decoder that accounts for both the multidimensional structure of the encoding lattices and the spatial correlation. In addition, a sphere decoder is considered to simplify the required searches over the multidimensional lattices. Different lattice-based mappings are approached and the impact of their size and density on performance and latency is analyzed. Results show that, while meeting low-latency constraints, lattice-based analog JSCC provides performance gains and higher reliability with respect to the state-of-the-art JSCC schemes.

description: A nonparametric latency estimator for mixture cure models is studied in this paper. An i.i.d. representation is obtained, the asymptotic mean squared error of the latency estimator is found, and its asymptotic normality is proven. A bootstrap bandwidth selection method is introduced and its efficiency is evaluated in a simulation study. The proposed methods are applied to a dataset of colorectal cancer patients in the University Hospital of A Coruña (CHUAC).

description: It is well known that the efficiency of a good thermoelectric material should be optimized with respect to doping concentration. However, much less attention has been paid to the optimization of the dopant's energy level. Thermoelectric materials doped with shallow levels may experience a dramatic reduction in their figures of merit at high temperatures due to the excitation of minority carriers that reduces the Seebeck coefficient and increases bipolar heat conduction. Doping with deep level impurities can delay the excitation of minority carriers as it requires a higher temperature to ionize all dopants. We find through modeling that, depending on the material type and temperature range of operation, different impurity levels (shallow or deep) will be desired to optimize the efficiency of a thermoelectric material. For different materials, we further clarify where the most preferable position of the impurity level within the band gap falls. Our research provides insights in choosing the most appropriate dopants for a thermoelectric material in order to maximize the device efficiency.

description: The PADME experiment at the DA$Φ$NE Beam-Test Facility (BTF) aims at searching for invisible decays of the dark photon by measuring the final state missing mass in the process $e^+e^- \to γ+ A'$, with $A'$ undetected. The measurement requires the determination of the 4-momentum of the recoil photon, performed using a homogeneous, highly segmented BGO crystals calorimeter. We report the results of the test of a 5$\times$5 crystals prototype performed with an electron beam at the BTF in July 2016.
Covariant theory of Bose-Einstein condensates in curved spacetimes with electromagnetic interactions: the hydrodynamic approach

description: We develop a hydrodynamic representation of the Klein-Gordon-Maxwell-Einstein equations. These equations combine quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, and general relativity. We consider the case of an arbitrary curved spacetime, the case of weak gravitational fields in a static or expanding background, and the nonrelativistic (Newtonian) limit. The Klein-Gordon-Maxwell-Einstein equations govern the evolution of a complex scalar field, possibly describing self-gravitating Bose-Einstein condensates, coupled to an electromagnetic field. They may find applications in the context of dark matter, boson stars, and neutron stars with a superfluid core.
Entropy production in nonlinear recombination models

description: We study the convergence to equilibrium of a class of nonlinear recombination models. In analogy with Boltzmann's H theorem from kinetic theory, and in contrast with previous analysis of these models, convergence is measured in terms of relative entropy. The problem is formulated within a general framework that we refer to as Reversible Quadratic Systems. Our main result is a tight quantitative estimate for the entropy production functional. Along the way we establish some new entropy inequalities generalizing Shearer's and related inequalities.

description: These notes describe some links between the group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the Heisenberg group and hypercomplex numbers---complex, dual and double numbers. Relations between quantum and classical mechanics are clarified in this framework. In particular, classical mechanics can be obtained as a theory with noncommutative observables and a non-zero Planck constant if we replace complex numbers in quantum mechanics by dual numbers. Our consideration is based on induced representations which are build from complex-/dual-/double-valued characters. Dynamic equations, rules of additions of probabilities, ladder operators and uncertainty relations are discussed. Finally, we prove a Calderón--Vaillancourt-type norm estimation for relative convolutions.

description: Recent advances in the studies of pure spin currents - flows of angular momentum (spin) not accompanied by the electric currents - have opened new horizons for the emerging technologies based on the electron's spin degree of freedom, such as spintronics and magnonics. The main advantage of pure spin current, as compared to the spin-polarized electric current, is the possibility to exert spin transfer torque on the magnetization in thin magnetic films without electrical current flow through the material. In addition to minimizing Joule heating and electromigration effects, this characteristic enables the implementation of spin torque devices based on the low-loss insulating magnetic materials, and offers an unprecedented geometric flexibility. Here we review the recent experimental achievements in investigations of magnetization oscillations excited by pure spin currents in different magnetic nanosystems based on metallic and insulating magnetic materials. We discuss the spectral properties of spin-current nano-oscillators, and relate them to the spatial characteristics of the excited dynamic magnetic modes determined by the spatially-resolved measurements. We also show that these systems support locking of the oscillations to external microwave signals, as well as their mutual synchronization, and can be used as efficient nanoscale sources of propagating spin waves.

description: Post-main-sequence planetary science has been galvanised by the striking variability, depth and shape of the photometric transit curves due to objects orbiting white dwarf WD 1145+017, a star which also hosts a dusty debris disc and circumstellar gas, and displays strong metal atmospheric pollution. However, the physical properties of the likely asteroid which is discharging disintegrating fragments remain largely unconstrained from the observations. This process has not yet been modelled numerically. Here, we use the N-body code PKDGRAV to compute dissipation properties for asteroids of different spins, densities, masses, and eccentricities. We simulate both homogeneous and differentiated asteroids, for up to two years, and find that the disruption timescale is strongly dependent on density and eccentricity, but weakly dependent on mass and spin. We find that primarily rocky differentiated bodies with moderate (~3-4 g/cm^3) bulk densities on near-circular (e
