description: In dieser Arbeit wird das Problem der Bestimmung einer maximalen kantendisjunkten Kreispackung bzw. der Bestimmung der Kreispackungszahl von Graphen untersucht. Die Bedeutung dieser theoretischen Problemstellung wird durch die Vorstellung dreier Anwendungen verdeutlicht. Da die Bestimmung solcher maximalen kantendisjunkten Kreispackungen sowie die Bestimmung der Kreispackungszahl NP-schwer sind, besteht die grundlegende Idee dieser Arbeit darin, Graphzerlegungen bestimmter Graphklassen zu nutzen und einen Bezug zwischen einer Kreispackung der Zerlegung und einer Kreispackung des Ursprungsgraphen herzustellen. Für serienparallele Graphen wird ein Linearzeitalgorithmus basierend auf einer SPQR-Zerlegung vorgestellt und evaluiert. Weiterhin wird eine Zerlegung für minimal 3-zusammenhängende Graphen vorgestellt, mit der verschiedene Ergebnisse für Halin-Graphen entwickelt werden. Unter anderem wird für spezielle Halin-Graphen gezeigt, dass die Bestimmung der Kreispackungszahl auf die Bestimmung der Kreispackungszahlen der Komponenten in der Zerlegung zurückgeführt werden kann.

description: Recent cosmic-ray (CR) studies have claimed the possibility of an excess on the antiproton flux over the predicted models at around $10$ GeV, which can be the signature of dark matter annihilating into hadronic final states that subsequently form antiprotons. However, this excess is subject to many uncertainties related to the evaluation of the antiproton spectrum produced from spallation interactions of CRs. In this work, we implement a combined Markov-Chain Monte Carlo analysis of the secondary ratios of B, Be and Li and the antiproton-to-proton ratio ($\bar{p}/p$), while also including nuisance parameters to consider the uncertainties related to the spallation cross sections. This study allows us to constrain the Galactic halo height and the rest of propagation parameters, evaluate the impact of cross sections uncertainties in the determination of the antiproton spectrum and test the origin of the excess of antiprotons. In this way, we provide a set of propagation parameters and scale factors for renormalizing the cross sections parametrizations that allow us to reproduce all the ratios of B, Be, Li and $\bar{p}$ simultaneously. We show that the energy dependence of the $\bar{p}/p$ ratio is compatible with a pure secondary origin. We find that the energy dependence of the evaluated $\bar{p}/p$ spectrum matches the AMS-02 data at energies above $\sim3$GeV, although there is still a nearly constant $\sim10\%$ excess of $\bar{p}$ over our prediction. We discuss that this discrepancy is more likely explained from a $\sim10\%$ scaling in the cross sections of antiproton production, rather than a component of dark matter leading to antiprotons. In particular, we find that the best-fit WIMP mass ($\sim 300$ GeV) needed to explain the discrepancy lies above the constraints from most indirect searches of dark matter and the resultant fit is poorer than with a cross sections scaling.

description: Mobbing ist ein großes Problem in der Schule, und der Umgang damit wird in der Lehrer*innenausbildung selten oder gar nicht thematisiert. In dieser Studie befragten wir 103 deutsche Lehramtsanwärter*innen zu ihrer Einstellung gegenüber körperlichen, verbalen, relationalen und Cybermobbing-Situationen. Für jede dieser Situationen wollten wir einschätzen, (a) wie ernst man die Situation nehmen würde (Schweregrad), (b) wie wütend man über die Situation wäre (Ärger), (c) wie mitfühlend man gegenüber dem Opfer wäre (Empathie), (d) wie wahrscheinlich eine Intervention wäre (Intervention) und (e) wie kompetent man sich fühlen würde, in der Situation zu intervenieren (Kompetenz). Alle Arten von Mobbing wurden sehr ernst genommen, wobei verbales Mobbing signifikant weniger ernst genommen wurde als die anderen drei Arten. Cybermobbing und physische Angriffe führten zu größerer Verärgerung als verbales oder relationales Mobbing. Häufigeres Eingreifen wurde für Cyber- und physisches Mobbing berichtet, seltener für relationales und verbales Mobbing. Angehende Lehrer*innen fühlten sich aber in allen Mobbing-Situationen wenig kompetent einzugreifen.

description: Politics and business education are often regarded as inseparable. The successful performance of businesses depends to a great extent on the political environment of the host country. decisions, policies, programmes and interventions of governments and individuals may affect business education and business generally either positively or negatively. Therefore, this study examined how the political dimensions of different countries in Africa affects business organisations and business education. Some countries in Africa were selected and instances were given on how their government policies, interventions and white paper have affected business organisations and business education in those countries. Based on the instances given in this study, it was concluded that politics play a crucial role in business education in Africa, as government interventions and policies were seen to have affected business education and business organisations either positively or negatively. Thus, confirming the statement that politics and business education are inseparable. It was recommended that governments in Africa should always assess the possible effects of their policies on business organisations and business education before implementing any new policy. Old policies affecting business education and businesses should be restructured in such a way that it will positively affect business education and business organisations in Africa.

description: The increasing demand for customized Large Language Models (LLMs) has led to the development of solutions like GPTs. These solutions facilitate tailored LLM creation via natural language prompts without coding. However, the trustworthiness of third-party custom versions of LLMs remains an essential concern. In this paper, we propose the first instruction backdoor attacks against applications integrated with untrusted customized LLMs (e.g., GPTs). Specifically, these attacks embed the backdoor into the custom version of LLMs by designing prompts with backdoor instructions, outputting the attacker's desired result when inputs contain the predefined triggers. Our attack includes 3 levels of attacks: word-level, syntax-level, and semantic-level, which adopt different types of triggers with progressive stealthiness. We stress that our attacks do not require fine-tuning or any modification to the backend LLMs, adhering strictly to GPTs development guidelines. We conduct extensive experiments on 6 prominent LLMs and 5 benchmark text classification datasets. The results show that our instruction backdoor attacks achieve the desired attack performance without compromising utility. Additionally, we propose two defense strategies and demonstrate their effectiveness in reducing such attacks. Our findings highlight the vulnerability and the potential risks of LLM customization such as GPTs.
MOVER confidence intervals for a difference or ratio effect parameter under stratified sampling

description: Stratification is commonly employed in clinical trials to reduce the chance covariate imbalances and increase the precision of the treatment effect estimate. We propose a general framework for constructing the confidence interval (CI) for a difference or ratio effect parameter under stratified sampling by the method of variance estimates recovery (MOVER). We consider the additive variance and additive CI approaches for the difference, in which either the CI for the weighted difference, or the CI for the weighted effect in each group, or the variance for the weighted difference is calculated as the weighted sum of the corresponding stratum-specific statistics. The CI for the ratio is derived by the Fieller and log-ratio methods. The weights can be random quantities under the assumption of a constant effect across strata, but this assumption is not needed for fixed weights. These methods can be easily applied to different endpoints in that they require only the point estimate, CI, and variance estimate for the measure of interest in each group across strata. The methods are illustrated with two real examples. In one example, we derive the MOVER CIs for the risk difference and risk ratio for binary outcomes. In the other example, we compare the restricted mean survival time and milestone survival in stratified analysis of time-to-event outcomes. Simulations show that the proposed MOVER CIs generally outperform the standard large sample CIs, and that the additive CI approach performs slightly better than the additive variance approach.

description: We obtain new non-extremal rotating black hole solutions in maximal five-dimensional gauged supergravity. They are characterised by five parameters, associated with the mass, the two angular momenta, and two independently-specifiable charge parameters. Two of the three charges associated with the U(1)^3 Cartan subgroup of the SO(6) gauge group are equal, whilst the third can be independently specified. These new solutions generalise all the previously-known rotating solutions in five-dimensional gauged supergravity with independent angular momenta. They describe regular black holes, provided the parameters lie in appropriate ranges so that naked singularities and closed-timelike curves (CTCs) are avoided. We also construct the BPS limit, and show that regular supersymmetric black holes or topological solitons arise if the parameters are further restricted in an appropriate manner.

Here, we show that in general in Markovian systems, because of the system Hamiltonian, quantum information decoheres. We give conditions for the system Hamiltonian that must be satisfied if coherence is to be preserved. Finally, we show how to construct robust subspaces for quantum information processing.

description: We present the results and the main findings of the NLP4IF-2021 shared tasks. Task 1 focused on fighting the COVID-19 infodemic in social media, and it was offered in Arabic, Bulgarian, and English. Given a tweet, it asked to predict whether that tweet contains a verifiable claim, and if so, whether it is likely to be false, is of general interest, is likely to be harmful, and is worthy of manual fact-checking; also, whether it is harmful to society, and whether it requires the attention of policy makers. Task~2 focused on censorship detection, and was offered in Chinese. A total of ten teams submitted systems for task 1, and one team participated in task 2; nine teams also submitted a system description paper. Here, we present the tasks, analyze the results, and discuss the system submissions and the methods they used. Most submissions achieved sizable improvements over several baselines, and the best systems used pre-trained Transformers and ensembles. The data, the scorers and the leaderboards for the tasks are available at http://gitlab.com/NLP4IF/nlp4if-2021.

Nonstationary random acoustic and electromagnetic fields as wave diffusion processes

description: We investigate the effects of relatively rapid variations of the boundaries of an overmoded cavity on the stochastic properties of its interior acoustic or electromagnetic field. For quasi-static variations, this field can be represented as an ideal incoherent and statistically homogeneous isotropic random scalar or vector field, respectively. A physical model is constructed showing that the field dynamics can be characterized as a generalized diffusion process. The Langevin--Itô and Fokker--Planck equations are derived and their associated statistics and distributions for the complex analytic field, its magnitude and energy density are computed. The energy diffusion parameter is found to be proportional to the square of the ratio of the standard deviation of the source field to the characteristic time constant of the dynamic process, but is independent of the initial energy density, to first order. The energy drift vanishes in the asymptotic limit. The time-energy probability distribution is in general not separable, as a result of nonstationarity. A general solution of the Fokker--Planck equation is obtained in integral form, together with explicit closed-form solutions for several asymptotic cases. The findings extend known results on statistics and distributions of quasi-stationary ideal random fields (pure diffusions), which are retrieved as special cases.

description: An abundance of astrophysical evidence indicates that the bulk of matter in the universe is made up of massive, electrically neutral particles that form the dark matter (DM). While the density of DM has been precisely measured, the identity of the DM particle (or particles) is a complete mystery. In fact, within the laws of physics as we know them (the Standard Model, or SM), none of the particles have the right properties to make up DM. Remarkably, many new physics extensions of the SM -- designed to address theoretical issues with the electroweak symmetry breaking sector -- require the introduction of new particles, some of which are excellent DM candidates. As the LHC era begins, there are high hopes that DM particles, along with their associated new matter states, will be produced in pp collisions. We discuss how LHC experiments, along with other DM searches, may serve to determine the identity of DM particles and elucidate the associated physics. Most of our discussion centers around theories with weak-scale supersymmetry, and allows for several different DM candidate particles.

description: We describe time-domain measurements which provide new information about the large-angle nonlinear dynamics of nanomagnets excited by spin-transfer torque from a spin-polarized current. Sampling-oscilloscope measurements, which average over thousands of experimental time traces, show that the mean reversal time for spin-transfer-driven magnetic switching has a step-like dependence on magnetic field, because an integer number of precession cycles is required for reversal. Storage-oscilloscope measurements of individual experimental traces reveal non-periodic large-amplitude resistance variations at values of magnetic field and current in a crossover region between the regimes of spin-transfer-driven switching and steady-state precession. We also observe directly the existence of time-dependent switching, on the nanosecond scale, between different precessional modes and between a precessional mode and a static state, at particular values of magnetic field and current bias.

description: We describe the fourth edition of the CheckThat! Lab, part of the 2021 Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF). The lab evaluates technology supporting tasks related to factuality, and covers Arabic, Bulgarian, English, Spanish, and Turkish. Task 1 asks to predict which posts in a Twitter stream are worth fact-checking, focusing on COVID-19 and politics (in all five languages). Task 2 asks to determine whether a claim in a tweet can be verified using a set of previously fact-checked claims (in Arabic and English). Task 3 asks to predict the veracity of a news article and its topical domain (in English). The evaluation is based on mean average precision or precision at rank k for the ranking tasks, and macro-F1 for the classification tasks. This was the most popular CLEF-2021 lab in terms of team registrations: 132 teams. Nearly one-third of them participated: 15, 5, and 25 teams submitted official runs for tasks 1, 2, and 3, respectively.

description: Password managers allow users to improve password security by handling large numbers of strong and unique passwords without the burden of memorizing them. While users are encouraged to add all credentials to their password manager and update weak credentials, this task can require significant effort and thus jeopardize security benefits if not completed thoroughly. However, user strategies to add credentials, related obstacles, and their security implications are not well understood.

To address this gap in security research, we performed a mixed-methods study, including expert reviews of 14 popular password managers and an online survey with 279 users of built-in and third-party password managers.

We extend previous work by examining the status quo of password manager setup features and investigating password manager users’ setup strategies. We confirm previous research and find that many participants utilize password managers for convenience, not as a security tool. They most commonly add credentials whenever a website is visited, and prioritize what they add. Similarly, passwords are often only updated when they are considered insecure. Additionally, we observe a severe distrust towards password managers, leading to users not adding important passwords.

We conclude our work by giving recommendations for password manager developers to help users overcome the obstacles we identified.

description: We investigate the possibility that dark matter is made of heavy Dirac neutrinos with mass in the range [O(1) GeV- a few TeV] and with suppressed but non-zero coupling to the Standard Model Z as well as a coupling to an additional Z' gauge boson. The first part of this paper provides a model-independent analysis for the relic density and direct detection in terms of four main parameters: the mass, the couplings to the Z, to the Z' and to the Higgs. These WIMP candidates arise naturally as Kaluza-Klein states in extra-dimensional models with extended electroweak gauge group SU(2)_L* SU(2)_R * U(1). They can be stable because of Kaluza-Klein parity or of other discrete symmetries related to baryon number for instance, or even, in the low mass and low coupling limits, just because of a phase-space-suppressed decay width. An interesting aspect of warped models is that the extra Z' typically couples only to the third generation, thus avoiding the usual experimental constraints. In the second part of the paper, we illustrate the situation in details in a warped GUT model.

description: Owing to effective and flexible data acquisition, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has recently become a hotspot across the fields of computer vision (CV) and remote sensing (RS). Inspired by recent success of deep learning (DL), many advanced object detection and tracking approaches have been widely applied to various UAV-related tasks, such as environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, traffic management. This paper provides a comprehensive survey on the research progress and prospects of DL-based UAV object detection and tracking methods. More specifically, we first outline the challenges, statistics of existing methods, and provide solutions from the perspectives of DL-based models in three research topics: object detection from the image, object detection from the video, and object tracking from the video. Open datasets related to UAV-dominated object detection and tracking are exhausted, and four benchmark datasets are employed for performance evaluation using some state-of-the-art methods. Finally, prospects and considerations for the future work are discussed and summarized. It is expected that this survey can facilitate those researchers who come from remote sensing field with an overview of DL-based UAV object detection and tracking methods, along with some thoughts on their further developments.

description: "Leaping" methods show great promise for significantly accelerating stochastic simulations of complex biochemical reaction networks. However, few practical applications of leaping have appeared in the literature to date. Here, we address this issue using the "partitioned leaping algorithm" (PLA) [L.A. Harris and P. Clancy, J. Chem. Phys. 125, 144107 (2006)], a recently-introduced multiscale leaping approach. We use the PLA to investigate stochastic effects in two model biochemical reaction networks. The networks that we consider are simple enough so as to be accessible to our intuition but sufficiently complex so as to be generally representative of real biological systems. We demonstrate how the PLA allows us to quantify subtle effects of stochasticity in these systems that would be difficult to ascertain otherwise as well as not-so-subtle behaviors that would strain commonly-used "exact" stochastic methods. We also illustrate bottlenecks that can hinder the approach and exemplify and discuss possible strategies for overcoming them. Overall, our aim is to aid and motivate future applications of leaping by providing stark illustrations of the benefits of the method while at the same time elucidating obstacles that are often encountered in practice.

description: The disappointingly slow pace of progress on efforts to prevent proliferation, reduce nuclear weapons, and eliminate nuclear risks has many causes. The factor that might be easiest for individuals in the arms control and nonproliferation community to change stems from their own ambivalence about major questions that must be addressed on the road to reducing the number of nuclear weapons in the world to zero. This essay explores how ambivalence about four key issues—strategic stability, alliance relations, institution-building, and nuclear energy—often leads community members to take positions that play well at home and within their like-minded group but raise unintended impediments to achieving their own long-term goals. The author suggests alternative ways to handle these questions to improve the prospects for domestic and international agreement on practical measures that would eliminate, not perpetuate, nuclear risks.

Generated Audio Detectors are Not Robust in Real-World Conditions
Creators: name: Shaw, Soumya

Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2024

description: The misuse of generative AI (genAI) has raised significant ethical and trust issues. To mitigate this, substantial focus has been placed on detecting generated media, including fake audio. In this paper, we examine the efficacy of state-of-the-art fake audio detection methods under real-world conditions. By analyzing typical audio alterations of transmission pipelines, we identify several vulnerabilities: (1) minimal changes such as sound level variations can bias detection performance, (2) inevitable physical effects such as background noise lead to classifier failures, (3) classifiers struggle to generalize across different datasets, and (4) network degradation affects the overall detection performance. Our results indicate that existing detectors have major issues in differentiating between real and fake audio in practical applications and that significant improvements are still necessary for reliable detection in real-world environments.

Uncertainty Modeling of Emerging Device-based Computing-in-Memory Neural Accelerators with Application to Neural Architecture Search

description: Emerging device-based Computing-in-memory (CiM) has been proved to be a promising candidate for high-energy efficiency deep neural network (DNN) computations. However, most emerging devices suffer uncertainty issues, resulting in a difference between actual data stored and the weight value it is designed to be. This leads to an accuracy drop from trained models to actually deployed platforms. In this work, we offer a thorough analysis of the effect of such uncertainties-induced changes in DNN models. To reduce the impact of device uncertainties, we propose UAE, an uncertainty-aware Neural Architecture Search scheme to identify a DNN model that is both accurate and robust against device uncertainties.
Update analysis of tau- --> V P- nu(tau): Theory and Experiment

description: Within the resonance chiral theory, we have studied the process of a tau lepton decaying into a vector resonance plus a pseudo-Goldstone meson and a tau neutrino. Two kinds of processes are discussed: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi pi-, K*0 K-) nu(tau), belonging to Delta S=0 processes and (b) Delta S = 1 processes, such as tau- --> (rho K-, omega K-,phi K-,\bar{K*0} pi-) nu(tau). To fit the tau- --> omega pi- nu(tau) spectral function and the decay distribution of tau- --> omega K- nu(tau) to get unknown resonance couplings, we then make a prediction for branching ratios of all channels.

description: Numerical simulations suggest that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) play an important role in the formation of early-type galaxies by expelling gas and dust in powerful galactic winds and quenching star formation. However, the existence of AGN feedback capable of halting galaxy-wide star formation has yet to be observationally confirmed. To investigate this question, we have obtained spectra of 14 post-starburst galaxies at z~0.6 to search for evidence of galactic winds. In 10/14 galaxies we detect Mg II 2796,2803 absorption lines which are blueshifted by 490 - 2020 km/s with respect to the stars. The median blueshift is 1140 km/s. We hypothesize that the outflowing gas represents a fossil galactic wind launched near the peak of the galaxy's activity, a few 100 Myr ago. The velocities we measure are intermediate between those of luminous starbursts and broad absorption line quasars, which suggests that feedback from an AGN may have played a role in expelling cool gas and shutting down star formation.

A Rotating, Inhomogeneous Dust Interior for the BTZ Black Hole

description: We present exact solutions describing rotating, inhomogeneous dust with generic initial data in 2+1 dimensional AdS spacetime and show how they are smoothly matched to the Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) solution in the exterior. The metrics, which are the rotational analogues of the 2+1 dimensional LeMaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) family, are described by their angular momentum and one additional constant which, together with the angular momentum, determines the energy density of the dust cloud. The weak energy condition gives a constraint on the angular momentum profile inside the cloud. Solutions can be stationary or time dependent, but only the time dependent solutions can be matched consistently to a BTZ exterior. No singularity is formed in either the stationary or the time dependent cases.

Recommending and release planning of user-driven functionality deletion for mobile apps

description: Evolving software with an increasing number of features poses challenges in terms of comprehensibility and usability. Traditional software release planning has pre- dominantly focused on orchestrating the addition of features, contributing to the growing complexity and maintenance demands of larger software systems. In mobile apps, an excess of functionality can significantly impact usability, maintainability, and resource consumption, necessitating a nuanced understanding of the applicability of the law of continuous growth to mobile apps. Previous work showed that the deletion of functionality is common and sometimes driven by user reviews. For most users, the removal of features is associated with negative sentiments, prompts changes in usage patterns, and may even result in user churn. Motivated by these preliminary results, we propose Radiation to input user reviews and recommend if any functionality should be deleted from an app’s User Interface (UI). We evaluate Radiation using historical data and surveying developers’ opinions. From the analysis of 190,062 reviews from 115 randomly selected apps, we show that Radiation can recommend functionality deletion with an average F-Score of 74% and if sufficiently many negative user reviews suggest so. We conducted a survey involving 141 software developers to gain insights into the decision-making process and the level of planning for feature deletions. Our findings indicate that 77.3% of the participants often or always plan for such deletions. This underscores the importance of incorporating feature deletion planning into the overall release decision-making process.

description: We present an analytical study of the standard two-party deterministic dense-coding protocol, under which communication of perfectly distinguishable messages takes place via a qudit from a pair of non-maximally entangled qudits in pure state |S>. Our results include the following: (i) We prove that it is possible for a state |S> with lower entanglement entropy to support the sending of a greater number of perfectly distinguishable messages than one with higher entanglement entropy, confirming a result suggested via numerical analysis in Mozes et al. [Phys. Rev. A 71 012311 (2005)]. (ii) By explicit construction of families of local unitary operators, we verify, for dimensions d = 3 and d=4, a conjecture of Mozes et al. about the minimum entanglement entropy that supports the sending of d + j messages, j = 2, ..., d-1; moreover, we show that the j=2 and j= d-1 cases of the conjecture are valid in all dimensions. (iii) Given that |S> allows the sending of K messages and has the square roof of c as its largest Schmidt coefficient, we show that the inequality c <= d/K, established by Wu et al. [ Phys. Rev. A 73, 042311 (2006)], must actually take the form c < d/K if K = d+1, while our constructions of local unitaries show that equality can be realized if K = d+2 or K = 2d-1.

description: GaN(0001) surfaces with Ga- and H-adsorbates are fundamental stages for epitaxial growth of semiconductor thin films. We explore stable surface structures with nanometer scale by the density-functional calculations combined with Bayesian optimization, and succeed to reach a single structure with satisfactorily low mixing enthalpy among hundreds of thousand possible candidate structures. We find that the obtained structure is free from any postulated high symmetry previously introduced by human intuition, satisfies electron counting rule locally, and shows new adsorbate arrangement, reflecting characteristics of nitride semiconductors.
