description: In evolutionary game dynamics, reproductive success increases with the performance in an evolutionary game. If strategy $A$ performs better than strategy $B$, strategy $A$ will spread in the population. Under stochastic dynamics, a single mutant will sooner or later take over the entire population or go extinct. We analyze the mean exit times (or average fixation times) associated with this process. We show analytically that these times depend on the payoff matrix of the game in an amazingly simple way under weak selection, ie strong stochasticity: The payoff difference $Δπ$ is a linear function of the number of $A$ individuals $i$, $Δπ= u i + v$. The unconditional mean exit time depends only on the constant term $v$. Given that a single $A$ mutant takes over the population, the corresponding conditional mean exit time depends only on the density dependent term $u$. We demonstrate this finding for two commonly applied microscopic evolutionary processes.

description: Game theory has been one of the most successful quantitative concepts to describe social interactions, their strategical aspects, and outcomes. Among the payoff matrix quantifying the result of a social interaction, the interaction conditions have been varied, such as the number of repeated interactions, the number of interaction partners, the possibility to punish defective behavior etc. While an extension to spatial interactions has been considered early on such as in the "game of life", recent studies have focussed on effects of the structure of social interaction networks. However, the possibility of individuals to move and, thereby, evade areas with a high level of defection, and to seek areas with a high level of cooperation, has not been fully explored so far. This contribution presents a model combining game theoretical interactions with success-driven motion in space, and studies the consequences that this may have for the degree of cooperation and the spatio-temporal dynamics in the population. It is demonstrated that the combination of game theoretical interactions with motion gives rise to many self-organized behavioral patterns on an aggregate level, which can explain a variety of empirically observed social behaviors.

description: Regression discontinuity designs assess causal effects in settings where treatment is determined by whether an observed running variable crosses a pre-specified threshold. Here we propose a new approach to identification, estimation, and inference in regression discontinuity designs that uses knowledge about exogenous noise (e.g., measurement error) in the running variable. In our strategy, we weight treated and control units to balance a latent variable of which the running variable is a noisy measure. Our approach is driven by effective randomization provided by the noise in the running variable, and complements standard formal analyses that appeal to continuity arguments while ignoring the stochastic nature of the assignment mechanism.

description: Isatisindigoticanine A (1), a new indole alkaloid with an unusual carbon skeleton of a benzofuran-3-one unit connected with a 1H-indole-3-yl unit and a 4-(1,2-dihydroxyethyl)-6-oxa-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-one unit via a C-3－C-8'' bond and a C-4'－C-8'' bond, was obtained from the roots of Isatis tinctoria. Its structure was determined by physicochemical properties and spectroscopic methods including 1 D, 2 D NMR, IR, HRESIMS data. The absolutely configurations were deduced by comparison of its experimental CD and calculated ECD spectra. Nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory activities of isatisindigoticanine A was also evaluated in the LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells, however, no inhibitory effect was presented.

description: We report development of a quantum Hall resistance standard accurate to a few parts in a billion at 300 mK and based on large area epitaxial graphene. The remarkable precision constitutes an improvement of four orders of magnitude over the best results obtained in exfoliated graphene and is similar to the accuracy achieved in well-established semiconductor standards. Unlike the traditional resistance standards the novel graphene device is still accurately quantized at 4.2 K, vastly simplifying practical metrology. This breakthrough was made possible by exceptional graphene quality achieved with scalable silicon carbide technology on a wafer scale and shows great promise for future large scale applications in electronics.

description: We present a combined oxygen $K$-edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) study of the bilayer ruthenate Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$. Our RIXS experiments on Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ were carried out on the overlapping planar and inter-planar oxygen resonances, which are distinguishable from the apical one. Comparison to equivalent oxygen $K$-edge spectra recorded on band-Mott insulating Ca$_2$RuO$_4$ is made. In contrast to Ca$_2$RuO$_4$ spectra, which contain excitations linked to Mott physics, Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ spectra feature only intra-$t_{2g}$ ones that do not directly involve the Coulomb energy scale. As found in Ca$_2$RuO$_4$, we resolve two intra-$t_{2g}$ excitations in Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$. Moreover, the lowest lying excitation in Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ shows a significant dispersion, revealing a collective character differently from what is observed in Ca$_2$RuO$_4$. Theoretical modelling supports the interpretation of this lowest energy excitation in Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ as a magnetic transverse mode with multi-particle character, whereas the corresponding excitation in Ca$_2$RuO$_4$ is assigned to combined longitudinal and transverse spin modes. These fundamental differences are discussed in terms of the inequivalent magnetic ground-state manifestations in Ca$_2$RuO$_4$ and Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$.

description: We have performed large-scale nucleosynthesis calculations within the high-entropy-wind (HEW) scenario of type II supernovae. The primary aim was to constrain the conditions for the production of the classical "p-only" isotopes of the light trans-Fe elements. We find, however, that for electron fractions in the range 0.458 $\le$ Y$_e$ $\le$ 0.478, sizeable abundances of p-, s- and r-process nuclei between $^{64}$Zn and $^{98}$Ru are coproduced in the HEW at low entropies (S $\le$ 100) by a primary charged-particle process after an $α$-rich freezeout. With the above Y$_e$ -- S correlation, most of the predicted isotopic abundance ratios within a given element (e.g. $^{64}$Zn(p)/$^{70}$Zn(r) or $^{92}$Mo(p)/$^{94}$Mo(p)), as well as of neighboring elements (e.g. $^{70}$Ge(s+p)/$^{74}$Se(p) or $^{74}$Se(p)/$^{78}$Kr(p)) agree with the observed Solar-System ratios. Taking the Mo isotopic chain as a particularly challenging example, we show that our HEW model can account for the production of all 7 stable isotopes, from "p-only" $^{92}$Mo, via "s-only" $^{96}$Mo up to "r-only" $^{100}$Mo. Furthermore, our model is able to reproduce the isotopic composition of Mo in presolar SiC X-grains.}

description: La Repubblica Greca ha riformato il suo testo costituzionale, in vigore dal 1975, nel 1986 e nel 2001, e queste revisioni sono i temi centrali del presente articolo. I temi sono svolti nella cornice dell’evoluzione storica del paese, a partire specialmente dalla dittatura dei Colonnelli, iniziata nel 1967 e finita nel 1974. L’articolo presenta, quindi, i caratteri della Costituzione ellenica aggiornata, soffermandosi sulla forma di Stato e di Governo; sui diritti costituzionali e fondamentali; sui rapporti tra Chiesa e Stato, da cui emerge palese il ruolo particolarmente predominante della religione ortodossa non solo nel sistema politico ma anche nell’ordinamento giuridico; sulla partecipazione dei cittadini e sul sistema elettorale; sulla disciplina delle cause di ineleggibilità e incompatibilità dei parlamentari e membri del governo, da cui risalta la forma esemplare, per funzionalità, logica e democratica, che ha risolto l’annoso problema del conflitto di interessi; sull’indipendenza funzionale e personale del potere giudiziale; sul decentramento amministrativo nella conservazione dello Stato unitario, nell’ambito del quale merita di aver particolare rilievo il principio di auto-amministrazione locale, che si concreta nel riconoscimento di poteri alle collettività locali, considerate dalla Costituzione come organismi di auto-amministrazione, persone giuridiche distinte dallo Stato e dirette da autorità elettive proprie; sui procedimenti di revisione costituzionale. Un quadro complessivo di particolare efficacia.

description: A small minority of juveniles are responsible for the majority of detected juvenile crime in Ireland. This situation presents significant policy concerns. The current paper, based on findings from a comparative analysis builds on a multi-step research design process to provide evidence-based knowledge to inform the design of a new targeted intervention. An initial social network analysis of national crime and intelligence data produced localized basic criminal network maps illustrating co-offending and intelligence relationships between adults and juveniles in specific Police sub-districts (Part 1). These network maps then provided an enquiry frame for interviews with members of the police forces in three case study locations (Part 2). A comparative analysis of the three studies (Part 3) identified diversity in network structure and inherent resilience. The analysis also identifies core similarities in juveniles’ vulnerabilities and risks to recruitment. These factors are important considerations for an intervention seeking to disrupt networks and create safe “exit” environments for juveniles.

description: The top quark forward-backward asymmetry A_{FB}^t measured at the Tevatron is above the Standard Model prediction by more than 2-sigma deviation, which might be a harbinger for new physics. In this work we examine the contribution to A_{FB}^t in two different new physics models: one is the minimal supersymmetric model without R-parity (RPV-MSSM) which contributes to A_{FB}^t via sparticle-mediated t-channel process d d_bar-> t t_bar; the other is the third-generation enhanced left-right model (LR model) which contributes to A_{FB}^t via Z'-mediated t-channel or s-channel processes. We find that in the parameter space allowed by the tt_bar production rate and the tt_bar invariant mass distribution at the Tevatron, the LR model can enhance A_{FB}^t to within the 2-sigma region of the Tevatron data for the major part of the parameter space, and in optimal case A_{FB}^t can reach 12% which is slightly below the 1-sigma lower bound. For the RPV-MSSM, only in a narrow part of the parameter space can the λ'' couplings enhance A_{FB}^t to within the 2-sigma region while the λ' couplings just produce negative contributions to worsen the fit.

Molecular mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 variant spike proteins

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: SARS-CoV-2 exhibited limited widespread genetic variability over the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, approximately one year after its emergence, a slew of variants would emerge, with the Alpha variant replacing the original Wuhan-Hu-1 lineage and Beta and Gamma variants emerging soon thereafter. These and subsequent variants (Epsilon, Kappa, Delta, Omicron, and XBB) are defined by numerous mutations within their spike (S) glycoprotein which is critical for viral infection via binding the human angiotensin converting enzyme (hACE2) receptor and is the sole protein immunogen in most COVID-19 vaccines (mRNA-1273 [Moderna] and BNT162 [Pfizer] for example). Therefore, mutations within the SARS-CoV-2 S protein impact both viral pathobiology and therapeutic measures to treat viral infection. We hypothesize that variant SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins exhibit enhanced receptor (hACE2) binding affinity and monoclonal and polyclonal antibody evasion. This thesis aims to characterize the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Epsilon, Kappa, Delta, and Omicron (BA.1 and BA.2) variant S proteins for their ability to: i) enhance hACE2 binding, ii) evade monoclonal and patient-derived antibodies (elicited by either SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination), and iii) discover structural rationale that underly these changes. We find that each variant S protein exhibits distinctive characteristics - for example the Alpha S primarily exhibits enhanced hACE2 binding, while the Omicron S proteins demonstrate significant escape from antibodies and have acquired the unique ability to bind murine ACE2. The independent study of variant mutations in isolation and in combination provide insights into mutation epistasis and enable predictions into the behaviour of future SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. Finally, we characterize a novel antibody fragment (ab6) whose epitope confers broad neutralization across variant of concern S proteins, presenting a potential variant-resistant therapeutic target.

description: Le trasformazioni del quadro strategico globale che hanno seguito il crollo dell’Unione Sovietica sembrano aver fatto venir meno i parametri di riferimento che – pur in un clima di guerra fredda e di potenziale conflitto nucleare – avevano garantito alla comunità transatlantica lunghi decenni di pace e stabilità. Mentre gli Stati Uniti compiono disperati sforzi per mantenere il primato della propria potenza militare e tecnologica, altre polarità strategiche potrebbero presto emergere o riemergere, entrando in competizione con gli americani. Sarà l’Europa tra queste? E quale ruolo potrà svolgere in una prospettiva che sembra incidere sulla solidità e sulla coesione della comunità transatlantica?

The chaoticity of the system dynamics was quantified by means of energy level statistics. We analyzed the magnetic field dependence of the statistical distribution of the impurity energy levels and found a smooth transition between the Poisson limit and the Wigner limit, i.e. transition between regular Poisson and fully chaotic Wigner dynamics. Effect of the crystal field anisotropy on the quantum chaotic dynamics, which manifests itself in characteristic transitions between regularity and chaos for different field orientations, was demonstrated.

description: The functions of a large number of genes, including gene families with domains of unknown functions (DUF), still remain unclear. In this study, we analyzed four members of OsDUF1664 (OsDUF1664.1-OsDUF1664.4) in rice Nipponbare. By phylogenetic analysis, DUF1664 members in rice and Arabidopsis were classified into three major groups (I, II, III). Under drought conditions, the expression level of OsDUF1664.3 in rice was significantly elevated. Overexpression of OsDUF1664.3 in Escherichia coli led to a significant enhancement of catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) activities, and improved bacterial resistance to drought. The results of this study will provide important information for further study of the function of the OsDUF1664 family in rice.
Quantum correlations of twophoton polarization states in the parametric down-conversion process

description: We consider correlation properties of twophoton polarization states in the parametric down-conversion process. In our description of polarization states we take into account the simultaneous presence of colored and white noise in the density matrix. Within the considered model we study the dependence of the von Neumann entropy on the noise amount in the system and derive the separability condition for the density matrix of twophoton polarization state, using Perec-Horodecki criterion and majorization criterion. Then the dependence of the Bell operator (in CHSH form) on noise is studied. As a result, we give a condition for determining the presence of quantum correlation states in experimental measurements of the Bell operator. Finally, we compare our calculations with experimental data [doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.73.062110] and give a noise amount estimation in the photon polarization state considered there.

description: Il sequestro del potere elettorale e la negazione del diritto alla partecipazione politica, mediante il referendum di revoca presidenziale in Venezuela, è il tema dell’articolo del prof. Brewer Carías, nel quale l’autore analizza due nuove istituzioni politico-giuridiche create con la Costituzione venezuelana promulgata in dicembre 1999: il Potere Elettorale, come quarto ramo del potere politico e il Referendum Popolare per la revoca dei funzionari eletti direttamente dal popolo. Dal primo, che ha le funzioni che riguardano l’organizzazione e il funzionamento del sistema elettorale, comprese le candidature alle cariche politiche del cosiddetto potere cittadino, dipende anche l’organizzazione e lo svolgimento del referendum revocatorio. Per la prima volta dalla loro istituzione, i due istituti dovevano funzionare nel tentativo di revoca dell’elezione del Presidente della Repubblica. L’esito finale è stato la conferma del Presidente, perché la maggioranza del popolo venezuelano ha detto no alla revoca presidenziale. L’autore “anticipa” il risultato, criticando la mancanza di autonomia del potere elettorale e, per tanto, l’impossibilità di un’effettiva applicazione del potere popolare di revoca presidenziale.

description: Female produced sex pheromone of Maruca vitrata containing three components had been reported from countries in tropical Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. (E,E)-10,12-hexadecadienal as a major component, (E,E)-10,12-hexadecadienol and E-10-hexadecenal as minor components blended in the ratio of 100:5:5 was found to attract M. vitrata male moths in few countries in West Africa. However, this blend was found to have less or no effectiveness in trapping M. vitrata population in Asia, which triggered the need to refine the M. vitrata pheromone formulation. The isomers of major and minor pheromone compounds of M. vitrata were evaluated in this study. When subjected to Electroantennogram (EAG) analysis against male antennae, the isomer (Z,E)-10,12-hexadecadienal as a major component blended with the minor components (E,E)-10,12-hexadecadienol and  (E)-10-hexadecenol in 100:10:5 was found to elicit better antennal response than the standard three component blend. GC-EAD profiles of the individual synthetic isomer components supported the EAG results. Additional experiments also confirmed the attraction of M. vitrata pheromone compounds and their isomers along with host plant volatiles in EAG and wind-tunnel experiments. Field experiments in India and Cambodia confirmed the effectiveness of improved M. vitrata pheromone lures in attracting the adult male moths in legume fields.

description: The malicious manipulation of quantum key distribution (QKD) hardware is a serious threat to its security, as, typically, neither end users nor QKD manufacturers can validate the integrity of every component of their QKD system in practice. One possible approach to re-establish the security of QKD is to use a redundant number of devices. Following this idea, we introduce an efficient distributed QKD post-processing protocol and prove its security in a variety of corruption models of the possibly malicious devices. We find that, compared to the most conservative model of active and collaborative corrupted devices, natural assumptions lead to a significant enhancement of the secret key rate and considerably simpler QKD setups. Furthermore, we show that, for most practical situations, the resulting finite-size secret key rate is similar to that of the standard scenario assuming trusted devices.

description: In arXiv:0806.0363 the worldvolume superalgebra of the $\mathcal{N}=8$ Bagger-Lambert theory was calculated. In this paper we derive the general form for the worldvolume superalgebra of the $\mathcal{N}=6$ Bagger-Lambert theory. For a particular choice of three-algebra we derive the superalgebra of the ABJM theory. We interpret the associated central charges in terms of BPS brane configurations. In particular we find the central charge corresponding to the energy bound of the BPS fuzzy-funnel configuration of the ABJM theory. We also derive general expressions for the BPS equations of the $\mathcal{N}=6$ Bagger-Lambert theory.

description: Research on the parental brain has identified activation patterns that are interpreted as reflecting socioemotional processing needed to meet the demands of parenting an infant. However, no research to our knowledge has directly tested whether parents’ neural response to their infant maps onto patterns of neural activation observed during standard emotional response and regulation tasks. This study aims to clarify which components of mothers’ neural response to their infant’s affect are shared with passively viewing and labeling adult affective faces (tasks designed to elicit emotional response and regulation, respectively) using a sample of 25 mothers at three months postnatal. We will perform two conjunction analyses, a statistical test of the logical & designed to identify which neural regions are active in two or more contrasts: Mothers’ neural response to their own infant in negative affective contexts (compared to positive) with their neural response to viewing negative adult affective faces (compared to positive) (emotional response; [InfOwnNeg > InfOwnPos] AND [LookNeg > LookPos]). And mothers’ neural response to their own infant in negative affective contexts (compared to positive) with their neural response to labeling negative adult affective faces (compared to labeling positive) (emotion regulation; [InfOwnNeg > InfOwnPos] AND [(LabelNeg > LookNeg) > (LabelPos > LookPos)]). We will then conduct a secondary analysis correlating mothers’ “emotion regulation” response to their own infant’s affect (identified in the second conjunction) with their self-reported emotion regulation strategies during the scan. We hypothesize that 1) components of mothers’ neural response to viewing their own infant will be shared with their neural response to viewing and labeling adult affective faces, a standard task designed to elicit emotional response and regulation, and 2) mothers’ self-reported emotion regulation strategies will be associated with differential neural activation in regions identified as reflecting emotion regulation.
A distribution for a pair of unit vectors generated by Brownian motion
Creators: name: Kato, Shogo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We propose a bivariate model for a pair of dependent unit vectors which is generated by Brownian motion. Both marginals have uniform distributions on the sphere, while the conditionals follow so-called ``exit'' distributions. Some properties of the proposed model, including parameter estimation and a pivotal statistic, are investigated. Further study is undertaken for the bivariate circular case by transforming variables and parameters into the form of complex numbers. Some desirable properties, such as a multiplicative property and infinite divisibility, hold for this submodel. Two estimators for the parameter of the submodel are studied and a simulation study is carried out to investigate the finite sample performance of the estimators. In an attempt to produce more flexible models, some methods to generalize the proposed model are discussed. One of the generalized models is applied to wind direction data. Finally, we show how it is possible to construct distributions in the plane and on the cylinder by applying bilinear fractional transformations to the proposed bivariate circular model.

description: Il lavoro si propone di evidenziare le particolari caratteristiche che ha assunto il fenomeno arbitrale nel corso delle continue modificazioni legislative avvenute in ambito di appalto di opere pubbliche e della rispettiva risoluzione delle controversie, mettendo in risalto soprattutto i problemi legati alla legittimità costituzionale dell’istituto. In particolare, il tema viene affrontato prendendo in esame le molteplici disposizioni normative in materia arbitrale nell’ambito dei lavori pubblici, ponendo come punto di partenza la legge 11 febbraio 1994 n. 109 “legge Quadro in materia di lavori pubblici” e le recenti modifiche introdotte dalla legge n. 216/1995 “legge Merloni bis”. Si affronta poi con particolare attenzione la disposizione dell’art. 150 del D.P.R. 21 dicembre 1999 n. 554 che ha attuato la legge Quadro in materia di lavori pubblici 11 febbraio 1994 n. 109 e successive modifiche. Il lavoro si conclude con specifico riferimento al D.M. 2 dicembre 2000 n. 398 che rileva e disciplina l’istituto dell’arbitrato in opera pubbliche sollevando problemi di natura applicativa e di legittimità costituzionale.

The Schur-positivity of generalized nets
Creators: name: Shelburne, Ethan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: A graph is Schur-positive if its chromatic symmetric function expands nonnegatively in the Schur basis. All claw-free graphs are conjectured to be Schur-positive. We introduce a combinatorial object corresponding to a graph G, called a special rim hook G-tabloid, which is a variation on the special rim hook tabloid. These objects can be employed to compute any Schur coefficient of the chromatic symmetric function of a graph. Special rim hook tabloids have previously been used to prove the non-Schur-positivity of some graphs. We construct sign-reversing maps on these special rim hook G-tabloids to prove that a family of claw-free graphs called generalized nets are Schur-positive. Thus, we demonstrate a new method for proving the Schur-positivity of graphs, which has the potential to be applied to make further progress toward the aforementioned conjecture.
A network model for the study of red blood cell behavior in the microvasculature
Creators: name: Pskowski, Andrew J.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: There has been a wealth of research conducted regarding the partitioning of red blood cells (RBC) at bifurcations within the microvasculature. In previous studies partitioning has been characterized as either regular partitioning, in which the higher flow rate daughter channel receives a proportionally larger percentage of RBCs, or reverse partitioning, in which the opposite occurs. This thesis presents a study of RBC partitioning in networks of increasing complexity from a single bifurcation to a Wheatstone bridge inspired network. A variety of variable such as reservoir hematocrit, bifurcation angle, and network topology. Through this research significant discoveries were made in the areas of quantifying RBC lingering, elucidating causes of reverse partitioning in highly confined vessels, and the effect of network topology on hematocrit distribution. This information is of significant importance in understanding perfusion within the microvasculature. Furthermore, the tools and metrics to enable future study and analysis in more complex and physiologically relevant networks were developed. Ultimately, with further development this platform and analysis tools could be utilized as a model to study a disease, drug delivery, and organ microvasculature for use in artificial organ development.

description: Finalità di questo studio è offrire un panorama, all’interno delle encicliche sociali, delle principali posizioni assunte su lavoro e economia. Dopo una ricostruzione delle implicazioni antropologiche del lavoro, in particolare del lavoro inteso in senso oggettivo e soggettivo, analizza il primato dell’etica, sia nella dimensione personale che in quella comunitaria. Passa poi a affrontare alcuni diritti che, secondo la dottrina sociale, appartengono per natura agli uomini del lavoro, quali la proprietà privata, la destinazione universale dei beni, il diritto ad associarsi. A partire dal primato della dimensione morale ricostruisce il rapporto tra capitale e lavoro per entrare poi nelle valutazioni sui sistemi economici capitalista e collettivista. Infine presenta le principali posizioni in relazione al tema dell’interdipendenza e della globalizzazione, sotto la chiave della solidarietà e dello sviluppo.

Il comune soggetto autonomo della democrazia costituzionale.

Year: 2014

description: Lo studio esamina l’ente locale Comune attraverso le principali vicende ordinamentali dello Stato italiano, al fine di giungere ad un inquadramento costituzionale dell’autonomia locale. Il punto di avvio è la concezione autarchica del governo locale quale amministrazione indiretta dello Stato, concezione quanto mai coerente con la centralità dello Stato-persona nella dottrina giuspubblicistica del primo Novecento. Il passaggio alla Costituzione repubblicana esprime, attraverso gli artt. 2 e 5 Cost., i principi del pluralismo e dell’autonomia quali profili degli enti locali. Il Comune cessa di essere organo dello Stato per diventare, nel quadro di una statualità subordinata alla Costituzione, un soggetto della democrazia costituzionale. Le recenti riforme amministrative della seconda metà degli anni Novanta, nonché la riforma costituzionale del Titolo V Parte II, che parifica nel nuovo articolo 114 Cost. lo Stato agli altri soggetti costitutivi la Repubblica, disegnano le competenze e le funzioni che l’ordinamento repubblicano assegna al governo locale.

description: Recentemente la Repubblica del Venezuela ha promulgato una nuova costituzione che ha come caratteristiche principali il superamento della classica forma di organizzazione tripartita del pubblico potere e la partecipazione politica popolare per mezzo del c.d. «Poder ciudadano». Tutto ciò rende il testo costituzionale venezuelano notevolmente interessante e meritevole di attenzione».

description: This paper presents the FSOCO dataset, a collaborative dataset for vision-based cone detection systems in Formula Student Driverless competitions. It contains human annotated ground truth labels for both bounding boxes and instance-wise segmentation masks. The data buy-in philosophy of FSOCO asks student teams to contribute to the database first before being granted access ensuring continuous growth. By providing clear labeling guidelines and tools for a sophisticated raw image selection, new annotations are guaranteed to meet the desired quality. The effectiveness of the approach is shown by comparing prediction results of a network trained on FSOCO and its unregulated predecessor.
