description: Type-I clathrate compounds have attracted a great deal of interest in connection with the search for efficient thermoelectric materials. These compounds constitute networked cages consisting of nano-scale tetrakaidecahedrons (14 hedrons) and dodecahedrons (12 hedrons), in which the group 1 or 2 elements in the periodic table are encaged as the so-called rattling guest atom. It is remarkable that, though these compounds have crystalline cubic-structure, they exhibit glass-like phonon thermal conductivity over the whole temperature range depending on the states of rattling guest atoms in the tetrakaidecahedron. In addition, these compounds show unusual glass-like specific heats and THz-frequency phonon dynamics, providing a remarkable broad peak almost identical to those observed in topologically disordered amorphous materials or structural glasses, the so-called Boson peak. An efficient thermoelectric effect is realized in compounds showing these glass-like characteristics. This decade, a number of experimental works dealing with type-I clathrate compounds have been published. These are diffraction experiments, thermal and spectroscopic experiments in addition to those based on heat and electronic transport. These form the raw materials for this article based on advances this decade. The subject of this article involves interesting phenomena from the viewpoint of not only physics but also from the view point of the practical problem of elaborating efficient thermoelectric materials. This review presents a survey of a wide range of experimental investigations of type-I clathrate compounds, together with a review of theoretical interpretations of the peculiar thermal and dynamic properties observed in these materials.

description: Imagine being able to listen to the birds chirping in a park without hearing the chatter from other hikers, or being able to block out traffic noise on a busy street while still being able to hear emergency sirens and car honks. We introduce semantic hearing, a novel capability for hearable devices that enables them to, in real-time, focus on, or ignore, specific sounds from real-world environments, while also preserving the spatial cues. To achieve this, we make two technical contributions: 1) we present the first neural network that can achieve binaural target sound extraction in the presence of interfering sounds and background noise, and 2) we design a training methodology that allows our system to generalize to real-world use. Results show that our system can operate with 20 sound classes and that our transformer-based network has a runtime of 6.56 ms on a connected smartphone. In-the-wild evaluation with participants in previously unseen indoor and outdoor scenarios shows that our proof-of-concept system can extract the target sounds and generalize to preserve the spatial cues in its binaural output.

description: We have found that the offspring of the spontaneously diabetic BB rat shows a lower (p : 0.008) male ratio (43.9 0/0) than do other rat strains (50.5 %). The lower number of males is seen both at day seven after birth and at weaning. Further we have seen a reduced litter size in the inbred BB rat compared to other rat strains. The reason for the unequal sex ratio in the BB rat is unknown but is discussed in View of the versatile autoimmune capacity of the BB rat.

5GZORRO_D3.3: Final design of the evolved 5G Service layer solutions
Creators: name: Katherine Barabash, Kalman Meth
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: This deliverable describes the design of the evolved 5G Service layer solutions, in its final form as being realised in the 5GZORRO platform. The document builds upon the structure and the contents of D3.1 where the preliminary architecture and design choices were presented. It is intended to be a standalone version of 5GZORRO Service layer solutions design, aligned with the final version of 5GZORRO architecture reported in WP2. In addition to WP3 components design, the document includes descriptions of major technology enablers used to design and realise the 5GZORRO Service layer solutions, showing why these concepts (the DLT and the AIOPs) were chosen and how they have been applied in 5GZORRO context, both for realizing 5G Service layer solutions of WP3 (Identity and Permissions, Governance, Marketplace, Cross-domain Analytics & Intelligence) and in a broader context of Zero-touch Service Management and Orchestration developed in WP4. This final version of 5G Service layer solutions design is informed by the implementation activites performed across WP3 and WP4 (organized as several goal-oriented software development teams) as well as by the integration and validation activities ongoing as part of WP5 (Validation through Use Cases). To summarize, this deliverable complements the final version of 5GZORRO architecture, providing deeper level of detail for components and services contributed by WP3 along with their internal design and interworkings that will be further detailed in the last deliverable of WP3, D3.2, with low level descriptions of the software prototypes of evolved 5G Service layer solutions.

description: A severe outbreak of respiratory disease was diagnosed during a long—term toxicity study of Cyclosporine A in Sprague Dawley rats. Only rats closed orally with cyclosporine A fell ill, whereas no control animals contracted the disease. The causative agent was found to be Staphylococcus xylosus, a normal inhabitant the the respiratory tract of rats. Under normal conditions this organism is not pathogenic. In the case of immunocompromised animals, however, Staphylococcus xylosus was able to cause disease. The severity of the outbreak could be explained by insufficient hygienic procedures when closing the animals with a common stomach tube.

description: We report the realization of an array of four tunnel coupled quantum dots in the single electron regime, which is the first required step toward a scalable solid state spin qubit architecture. We achieve an efficient tunability of the system but also find out that the conditions to realize spin blockade readout are not as straightforwardly obtained as for double and triple quantum dot circuits. We use a simple capacitive model of the series quadruple quantum dots circuit to investigate its complex charge state diagrams and are able to find the most suitable configurations for future Pauli spin blockade measurements. We then experimentally realize the corresponding charge states with a good agreement to our model.

Enzyme activities of energy metabolism in muscle and brown fat of germ-free rats
Creators: name: Pelkonen,
Publisher: name: Scandinavian Journal of Laboratory Animal Sciences
Year: 2019

description: The heart is smaller in germ-free (GF) rats and the resting oxygen consumption is 20—30 0/0 lower than that in their microbially-associated (MA) counterparts. In this study organ weights and enzyme activities of energy metabolism were measured from myocardial and skeletal muscles and interscapular brown adipose tissue (BAT) of GF and MA rats. GF and MA rats had similar body weights. Caecum was 4—6 times heavier in GF than in MA rats. Especially in females the heart, liver and BAT were lighter, and kidneys heavier in GP than in MA rats. The adrenals of GF males were heavier than in MA males. There were no differences between GF and MA females in glycogen content and activities of Citrate synthase, lactate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and phosphofructokinase from myocardial and skeletal muscles. BAT was lighter in GF than in MA females and it contained less fat. The activities of citrate synthase and malate dehydrogenase were higher in the BAT of CF females and the same tendency was seen in the males. The results suggest that the decreased oxygen consumption in GF rats is likely to be due to factors other than muscular energy metabolism.

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Triple Modular Redundancy (TMR) has been traditionally used to ensure complete tolerance to a single fault or a faulty processing unit, where the processing unit may be a circuit or a system. However, TMR incurs more than 200% overhead in terms of area and power compared to a single processing unit. Hence, alternative redundancy approaches were proposed in the literature to mitigate the design overheads associated with TMR, but they provide only partial or moderate fault tolerance. This research presents a new fault-tolerant design approach based on approximate computing called FAC that has the same fault tolerance as TMR and achieves significant reductions in the design metrics for physical implementation. FAC is suited for a plethora of error-tolerant applications. Here, the performance of TMR and FAC has been evaluated for a digital image processing application. The image processing results obtained confirm the usefulness of FAC. When an example processing unit was implemented using a 28-nm CMOS technology, FAC achieved a 15.3% reduction in delay, a 19.5% reduction in area, and a 24.7% reduction in power compared to TMR.

description: Recent developments in data management and imaging technologies have significantly affected diagnostic and extrapolative research in the understanding of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the impact of these new technologies is largely dependent on the speed and reliability with which the medical data can be visualised, analysed and interpreted. The EUs neuGRID for Users (N4U) is a follow-on project to neuGRID, which aims to provide an integrated environment to carry out computational neuroscience experiments. This paper reports on the design and development of the N4U Analysis Base and related Information Services, which addresses existing research and practical challenges by offering an integrated medical data analysis environment with the necessary building blocks for neuroscientists to optimally exploit neuroscience workflows, large image datasets and algorithms in order to conduct analyses. The N4U Analysis Base enables such analyses by indexing and interlinking the neuroimaging and clinical study datasets stored on the N4U Grid infrastructure, algorithms and scientific workflow definitions along with their associated provenance information.

description: Period or amplitude variations in eclipsing binaries may reveal the presence of additional massive bodies in the system, such as circumbinary planets. Here, we have studied twelve previously-known eclipsing post-common-envelope binaries for evidence of such light curve variations, on the basis of multi-year observations in the SuperWASP archive. The results for HW Vir provided strong evidence for period changes consistent with those measured by previous studies, and help support a two-planet model for the system. ASAS J102322-3737.0 exhibited plausible evidence for a period increase not previously suggested; while NY Vir, QS Vir and NSVS 14256825 afforded less significant support for period change, providing some confirmation to earlier claims. In other cases, period change was not convincingly observed; for AA Dor and NSVS 07826147, previous findings of constant period were confirmed. This study allows us to present hundreds of new primary eclipse timings for these systems, and further demonstrates the value of wide-field high-cadence surveys like SuperWASP for the investigation of variable stars.

description: Typical-case computation complexity is a research topic at the boundary of computer science, applied mathematics, and statistical physics. In the last twenty years the replica-symmetry-breaking mean field theory of spin glasses and the associated message-passing algorithms have greatly deepened our understanding of typical-case computation complexity. In this paper we use the vertex cover problem, a basic nondeterministic-polynomial (NP)-complete combinatorial optimization problem of wide application, as an example to introduce the statistical physical methods and algorithms. We do not go into the technical details but emphasize mainly the intuitive physical meanings of the message-passing equations. A nonfamiliar reader shall be able to understand to a large extent the physics behind the mean field approaches and to adjust them in solving other optimization problems.

How to maintain an effectice research program
Creators: name: Chard, T
Publisher: name: Scandinavian Journal of Laboratory Animal Sciences
Year: 2019

description: The discussion centered initially on the possibilities for and limitations of performing laboratory animal science research in the central animal units (CAU). Many such units are very small, often with only one or a few scientifically qualified member/s. It was agreed upon the necessity ofa minimum ”critical mass” of qualified people for the unit to be able to successfully conduct research and develop work within the field of laboratory animal science. It was pointed out, however, that it is necessary also for the small CAUs to get started, at whatever modest scale, to work and produce some publishable results, and thus slowly grow on their own merits. This was backed up by the firm belief that the laboratory animal scientists should be able/allowed to contribute to the advancement of knowledge. Implicit in this is that it is vital for the development of the CAUs to have resources e.g. space, for research of their own. Next to be discussed was the publication strategies within the CAUs. It was agreed upon that the scientific as well as the technical staff of the CAU could be co-authors on any publication arising as a result of work being done in the CAU. This should, however, be based upon an active scientific contribution from the CAU member, such as being an active part in the planning of the experimental series and/or contributing actively to its conduct. It must be remembered that a CAU, from the point of view of scientists in general, is a service unit, similar to other kinds of service laboratories. Finally it was emphasised that the director of a CAU has considerable ethical obligations, covering all the work being done on animals in the unit. This could also mean that ”negative” results or problems arising in a particular project e.g. the modifying effect of an intercurrent infection on experimental results, might be turned into useful information for the field of laboratory animal science.

description: Women who are victims of intimate partner violence often suffer of depression and anxiety disorders. We evaluated the performance of the SRQ-20 scale (screening test for common mental health disorders), in women victims of intimate partner violence by male partners. A total of 100 women were surveyed from the out-patient mental health services in four health institutions in Valle del Cauca (Colombia). SRQ-20 scales (Binary version versus Likert version) were compared with mental health diagnoses based on the HSCL-25 scale, as the gold standard. Optimal SRQ-20 cut-off score is > = 6 points; lower than the initially suggested, sensitivity of 96.6% and specificity of 90.9%. The new SRQ-20-Likert scale, establishing a cut-off of > = 8 points, shows better sensitivity (98.9%) and equal specificity than the original scale. Studied SRQ-20 scales are promising instruments for screening mental health disorders among women victims of intimate partner violence in primary health care settings.
The Casimir Force between Two Graphene Sheets: 2D Fresnel Reflection Coefficients, Contributions of Different Polarizations, and the Role of Evanescent Waves

description: We consider the Casimir pressure between two graphene sheets and contributions to it determined by evanescent and propagating waves with different polarizations. For this purpose, the derivation of the 2-dimensional (2D) Fresnel reflection coefficients on a graphene sheet is presented in terms of the transverse and longitudinal dielectric permittivities of graphene with due account of the spatial dispersion. The explicit expressions for both dielectric permittivities as the functions of the 2D wave vector, frequency, and temperature are written along the real frequency axis in the regions of propagating and evanescent waves and at the pure imaginary Matsubara frequencies using the polarization tensor of graphene. It is shown that in the application region of the Dirac model nearly the total value of the Casimir pressure between two graphene sheets is determined by the electromagnetic field with transverse magnetic (TM) polarization. By using the Lifshitz formula written along the real frequency axis, the contributions of the TM-polarized propagating and evanescent waves into the total pressure are determined. By confronting these results with the analogous results found for plates made of real metals, the way for bringing the Lifshitz theory using the realistic response functions in agreement with measurements of the Casimir force between metallic test bodies is pointed out.

Acid-base status and cardiovascular function in pigs anaesthetized with α-chloralose
Creators: name: Svendsen, Per

Publisher: name: Scandinavian Journal of Laboratory Animal Sciences
Year: 2019

description: Respiratory and cardiovascular parameters were examined in 47 pigs anaesthetized with α-chloralose 0.25% (100 mg/kg i.v.). Animals maintained under spontaneous respiration had a stable but subnormal arterial blood pressure. Heart rate was within the normal range. Respiration was depressed, causing elevated pCO2 and respiratory acidosis. Artificial ventilation with a minute volume of 0.15 1 per kg body weight normalized both cardiovascular and respiratory parameters. In conclusion α-chloralose can be considered valuable for maintaining anaesthesia in pigs during acute, non-survival experiments demanding minimal cardiovascular and pulmonary disturbance, but only where artificial ventilation is used.

The data obtained are compared with the available observations of this globule at radio and submillimeter wavelengths as well as some theoretical calculations. It is found that the elongation and the rotation moment of CB67 are oriented rather perpendicular to the magnetic fields, which is unusual for Bok globules and is difficult to be explained from the theoretical point of view.

description: The structure of finite nuclei is investigated by employing an interaction model which is based on the low-momentum interaction $V_{lowk}$. It is supplemented by a density-dependent contact interaction fitted to reproduce the saturation properties of infinite nuclear matter within the Hartree-Fock approach. The calculations of finite nuclei are performed in a basis of plane waves discretized in a cartesian box of appropriate size. As a first example the structure of Ne isotopes is considered ranging from $^{18}$Ne to the neutron drip line. Rather good agreement is obtained for the bulk properties of these nuclei without any free parameter. The basis is also appropriate to describe other deformed nuclei and the transition from discrete nuclei to homogeneous matter which is supposed to occur in the crust of neutron stars.

The purpose of this research is to see how much iteration and accuracy using this method compared with the

level of iteration and accuracy in previous research using only backpropagation algorithm with Conjugate

Gradient Fletcher-Reeves (CGFR) only in measuring consumer price index level. The data used as an

example in this study is the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data based on foodstuffs sourced from the Central

Statistics Agency Pematangsiantar Indonesia. There are 5 similar network architectures used in previous

research and in this study for more objective results, including 12-6-1, 12-15-1, 12-24-1, 12-33-1 and 12-

34-1. In the previous study, the best architecture was 12-15-1, with epoch level when using backpropagation

algorithm of 821 iterations with 75% accuracy and Gradient fletcher reeves of 2 iterations with 67%

accuracy. While the results of this study using the same architecture will be obtained epoch of 19 iterations

with an accuracy of 50%. So it can be concluded that the use of backpropagation algorithm and gradient

fletcher reeves to produce iteration and accuracy level better when compared with Resilient Algorithm

description: A method is presented that allows to combine the effective potential between two nano crystals, the potential of mean force (PMF), as obtained from all-atomistic Molecular Dynamics simulations with perturbation theory. In this way, a functional dependence of the PMF on temperature is derived, that enables the prediction of the PMF in a wide temperature range. We applied the method for systems of capped gold nano crystals of different size. They show very good agreement with data from atomistic simulations.

description: We provide a self-contained analysis, based entirely on pde methods, of the exponentially long time behavior of solutions to linear uniformly parabolic equations which are small perturbations of a transport equation with vector field having a globally stable point. We show that the solutions converge to a constant, which is either the initial value at the stable point or the boundary value at the minimum of the associated quasi-potential. This work extends previous results of Freidlin and Wentzell and Freidlin and Koralov and applies also to semilinear elliptic pde.

description: The shape of the most tight trefoil knot with N=200640 vertices found with an appropriately modified finite element method is analyzed. The high number of vertices makes plots of its curvature and torsion very precise what allows the authors to formulate new, firmly justified conjectures concerning the shape of the ideal trefoil knot.

A general introduction to allergy to laboratory animals (ALA)
Creators: name: Poulsen, Otto Melchior
Publisher: name: Scandinavian Journal of Laboratory Animal Sciences
Year: 2019

description: The prevalence of asthma was discussed. A literature survey done by Richard Fosse and the opinion and facts from the group give an approximate estimation of 2—4 0/0. This figure is disturbingly high and must go down in the future. After this the levels of antigen exposure were subJect of discussion. The opinion on the significance of the levels varies, and also the impact of daily massive versus intermittent exposure must be scrutinized. There is a difference in prevalence of ALA among anifrfnal caretakers and scientific members of the staff. Personal samplers may give answers to individual levels of exposure and result in advice on good working habits in order to reduce the exposure. A theory was put forward that early in lfe exposure to animals may be of importance, and it was stressed that laboratory animal caretakers and researchers are recruited from different categories. It was discussed whether atopic persons should be excluded from work with animals. The general opinion was no. It is not possible or desirable to do so. The individuals should be carefully informed about the risks and symptoms of allergy, and measures should be taken in order to minimize the risks. It was pointed out that not only animals, but also bedding can be a problem. Finally the nature of antigens was discussed. This is not always known, but rats and their urinary proteins result in the most frequent allergies. Rabbits’ hair and probably saliva and urinary proteins as main allergens rank second.

Will Code Remain a Relevant User Interface for End-User Programming with Generative AI Models?

description: The research field of end-user programming has largely been concerned with helping non-experts learn to code sufficiently well in order to achieve their tasks. Generative AI stands to obviate this entirely by allowing users to generate code from naturalistic language prompts. In this essay, we explore the extent to which "traditional" programming languages remain relevant for non-expert end-user programmers in a world with generative AI. We posit the "generative shift hypothesis": that generative AI will create qualitative and quantitative expansions in the traditional scope of end-user programming. We outline some reasons that traditional programming languages may still be relevant and useful for end-user programmers. We speculate whether each of these reasons might be fundamental and enduring, or whether they may disappear with further improvements and innovations in generative AI. Finally, we articulate a set of implications for end-user programming research, including the possibility of needing to revisit many well-established core concepts, such as Ko's learning barriers and Blackwell's attention investment model.

The defined laboratory animal and health monitoring

description: There is a definite need to set standard for health monitoring in order to obtain defined animals. Currently few laboratories can provide health monitoring schemes. However methods and operational procedures vary. GV-SOLAS has listed and published recommended methods to detect some pathogens. In the US, ILAR will publish a book with information on how diseases can affect research results. The FELASA working group on health monitoring is working to achieve recommendations, which could be widely accepted. Health monitoring methods used were regarded as too variable, and some types of reports difficult to read. If health monitoring is practised in user units it is in most cases only limited Most users rely on services of specialized laboratories or on breaders’ reports. Transparency of all relevant information concerning animals and methods used for health monitoring (SOst) is vital. While standard textbooks in laboratory animal science use diseases as an example of a variable readily appreciated by scientists, it probably applies to clinical diseases only. However, there is ample evidence that this also holds true for subcIinical diseases. The cost of health monitoring appears high, and hence there is a need to set a minimum standard. One way to define an animal could be through identification of significant organisms regarded to interfere with a certain study. The detection of significant organisms should result in due action. Health monitoring is a specialized field, which requires expertise, trained staff and established and periodically revised methods. In order to achieve international standardization in this field reference centers are preferable. To meet these demands WHO has appointed four ”WHO Collaborating Centres for Defined Laboratory Animals” (USA, Germany, USSR, Japan). Furthermore, ICLAS is currently revising its international ”Reference and Monitoring System for Laboratory Animals”.

description: This paper presents a method for determining the conductance matrix of multi terminal semiconductor structures with edge channels. This method appears to be applied within frameworks of the ordinary Landauer - uttiker formalism for the carrier transport analysis in the regime of both the quantum Hall Effect and the quantum spin Hall Effect. The proposed method proves to take into account principally the contribution of the probes resistance in the formation of the matrix conductance elements. Finally, the possibilities of the practical application of this method to develop new versions of analog cryptographic devices are discussed.

description: This exploratory study examines which investing characteristics determine success in an equity market. Based on data from 403 respondents, exploratory factor analysis results in 13 factors: middle/long time horizon, qualitative analyst, open-minded/disciplined, organized, emotional stability, naïve, growth stock, concentrated portfolio, contrarian, value stock, globalized, intrinsic value, and price-independent. Multiple linear regression of individual investors' excess return on these factors show statistically significant relationship. These results deepen our knowledge on what sort of investing characteristics are required to survive in equity markets.
