Macropygium spinolae

description: Macropygium spinolae Stål, 1860
Distribution. Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina.
Distribution in Colombia. Unknown. This species was recorded from Colombia in the taxonomic revision of the genus by Da Silva & Campos (2021), but without specific locality. The geographic coordinates recorded in the examined material suggest Vichada as a possible locality.
Remarks. Macropygium spinolae has the antennae five-segmented, the first and second antennal segments subequal in length; the segment X of pygophore is wider than long, the apex is rounded with abundant setae; the lateral angle of the laterotergite VIII is projected well beyond the line connecting the mesial trichobothria of the urosternite VII, and covering completely the base of the laterotergite IX.

description: Cardisoma carnifex (Herbst, 1796)
(Figs. 4, 5)
Cancer carnifex Herbst, 1796: 163, pl. 41, fig. 1 (for complete synonymy, see Türkay, 1974: 224). Cardisoma obesum Dana, 1851: 252.
Type material. 1 carapace (90.6 × 70.0 mm) (USNM 2356), Peacock Island, Tuamotu, 14°30’S 146°18’W, coll. U.S. Exploring Expedition.
Remarks. Cardisoma obesum was described by Dana (1851: 252–253) from “Paumotu” (= Tuamotu) in French Polynesia, and he listed one specimen (sex not specified) measuring 3.67 by 3 inches (93.2 × 76.2 mm). Dana (1852: 376) redescribed the species and figured the carapace, noting that it was from Peacock Island in the Paumotu Archipelago, and that the “... only specimen of this species saved from among the many collected, is a carapax.” The front of the carapace was figured in Dana (1855: pl. 24, fig.1). Cardisoma obesum is currently regarded as a junior subjective synonym of C. carnifex (see Türkay, 1974). The whereabouts of the type of C. obesum, was to date not known.
The present specimen (USNM 2356) measures 90.6 × 70.0 mm and the measurements are slightly smaller from that given by Dana (1851) but this can easily be explained by the fact that all that is left of the specimen is the carapace and the left side is broken and in poor condition. As thus, there is doubt this is in fact the holotype specimen of C. obesum.

Legacies of Empire: Myth, Language and Object

description: This report is a reflective analysis of my journey as an artist, focusing on exploring and documenting the intersection between art and history, particularly in response to myths and personal cultural experiences. Through various artistic mediums such as installation, painting, sculpture, and drawing, I critically investigate narratives that have been discredited. Drawing inspiration from Nigerian and African aesthetic traditions, universal iconography, and self-originated symbology, I employ a range of materials, including ceramics, mosaic, wood, stone fragments, epoxy, and jute, as well as conventional media like oil and water-based paints, charcoal, and graphite. Notably, I utilise charred wood as a deliberate technique symbolising rebirth and regeneration while incorporating terra-cotta for its historical significance in pottery, denoting durability, age, and resilience.

Furthermore, I incorporate elements of imaginary history and narratives to shape and depict artworks, shedding light on the impact of colonialism on nearly every aspect of life, particularly on issues of national identity and civil rights. This exploration is grounded in theoretical frameworks such as Extractivism and Postcolonialism, drawing inspiration from the works of artists including El’Anatsui, Leonard Drew, Yinka Shonibare, Dexter Dalwood, Rashid Johnson, Moyo Okediji, Joseph Cornell, Nick Cave, and Hew Locke. As an artist with both British and Nigerian heritage, I navigate the complexities of cultural identity, drawing upon my dual heritage to inform and enrich my artistic practice.

description: Gradient-based meta-learning algorithms have gained popularity for their ability to train models on new tasks using limited data. Empirical observations indicate that such algorithms are able to learn a shared representation across tasks, which is regarded as a key factor in their success. However, the in-depth theoretical understanding of the learning dynamics and the origin of the shared representation remains underdeveloped. In this work, we investigate the meta-learning dynamics of nonlinear two-layer neural networks trained on streaming tasks in the teacher-student scenario. Through the lens of statistical physics analysis, we characterize the macroscopic behavior of the meta-training processes, the formation of the shared representation, and the generalization ability of the model on new tasks. The analysis also points to the importance of the choice of certain hyperparameters of the learning algorithms.

description: Learned language-conditioned robot policies often struggle to effectively adapt to new real-world tasks even when pre-trained across a diverse set of instructions. We propose a novel approach for few-shot adaptation to unseen tasks that exploits the semantic understanding of task decomposition provided by vision-language models (VLMs). Our method, Policy Adaptation via Language Optimization (PALO), combines a handful of demonstrations of a task with proposed language decompositions sampled from a VLM to quickly enable rapid nonparametric adaptation, avoiding the need for a larger fine-tuning dataset. We evaluate PALO on extensive real-world experiments consisting of challenging unseen, long-horizon robot manipulation tasks. We find that PALO is able of consistently complete long-horizon, multi-tier tasks in the real world, outperforming state of the art pre-trained generalist policies, and methods that have access to the same demonstrations.

Malliavin calculus on the Clifford algebra

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We deal with Malliavin calculus on the $L^2$ space of the $W^*$-algebra generated by fermion fields (the Clifford algebra). First, we verify the product formula for multiple integrals in Itô-Clifford calculus, which is Itô calculus on the Clifford algebra. Using this product formula, we can define the derivation operator and the divergence operator. Anti-symmetric Malliavin calculus thus constructed has properties similar to those of usual Malliavin calculus. The derivation operator and the divergence operator satisfy the canonical anti-commutation relations, and the divergence operator serves as an extension of the Itô-Clifford stochastic integral, satisfying the Clark-Ocone formula. Subsequently, using this calculus, we consider the concentration inequality, the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, and the fourth-moment theorem. As for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, only a weaker result is obtained. On the other hand, as for the concentration inequality, we obtain results that are almost similar to those of the usual case; moreover, the results concerning the fourth-moment theorem imply that, unlike in the case of the usual Brownian motion, convergence in distribution cannot be deduced from the convergence of the fourth moment.

Another success story for our laboratory within the NOVAFOODIES project: The mass cultivation of an Indigenous uni-algally cultivated strain of Chondracanthus teedei (Mertens ex Roth) Fredericq under greenhouse conditions. Chondracanthus comes from the Greek words chondrus (cartilage) and akanthos (thorn, alluding to its spiny appearance).

It has relatively high levels of protein (14.66%), ash (28.68%), fibers (2.21%), lipids (1.82%), and moisture (86.73%), making this alga able to be considered for its implementation as food (see Pereira & Silva, 2020).

In our laboratory, we have both phases of Chondracanthus (gametophyte and tetrasporophyte)! In the photo, the gametophyte that contains the carrageenans.

description: Hagedorn wavepackets have been used to compute single vibronic level (SVL) spectra efficiently in model harmonic potentials. To make the Hagedorn approach practical for realistic polyatomic molecules with anharmonicity, here we combine local harmonic Hagedorn wavepacket dynamics with on-the-fly ab initio dynamics. We then test this method by computing the SVL fluorescence spectra of difluorocarbene, a small, floppy molecule with a very anharmonic potential energy surface. Our time-dependent approach obtains the emission spectra of all initial vibrational levels from a single anharmonic semiclassical wavepacket trajectory without the need to fit individual anharmonic vibrational wavefunctions and to calculate the Franck-Condon factors for all vibronic transitions. We show that, whereas global harmonic models are inadequate for CF2, the spectra computed with the on-the-fly local harmonic Hagedorn wavepacket dynamics agree well with experimental data, especially for low initial excitations.

description: An assistive technology ecosystem requires co-ordinated collaboration between policy, products, provision processes, and personnel. A needs assessment was conducted of the assistive technology sector in Queensland to examine these components from the perspective of all key stakeholders. Materials and Methods: This paper reports the findings of the expressed needs of the assistive technology sector as experienced by the AT advisors and suppliers. A sequential mixed methods design supported completion of a quantitative online survey (n = 29) followed by qualitative exploration with assistive technology advisors (n = 9) and suppliers (n = 6). There was an identified need to address the processes that led to delays or unfavourable outcomes for AT. Despite reporting confidence in the quality of services delivered, the advisors were worried about reduced access to expert consultation and a need to better build capacity and capability in the sector. Access to AT for hire or trial was problematic with conflicting tensions identified by the advisors and suppliers. However, both worried about the impact on the agency of the AT recipient in the process. There are opportunities to enhance the personnel, provision, and policy aspects of the assistive technology ecosystem in Queensland. Pressure points are: workforce capacity and capability to meet the growing need; finding ways to support the trial of assistive technology required to ensure appropriate recommendations for assistive technology that is fit for purpose; and improving information from the bodies that manage funding to reduce the waste in the provision process. There is a consistent call and urgent need for increased training opportunities that develop knowledge and skills of AT advisors.Opportunities to trial AT must be expanded to support exploration of AT solutions and reduce inappropriate provision that is not fit for purpose.System level changes are required to support efficiency and efficacy in the application and approval processes.

description: An endophytic actinomycetes, Streptomyces nanningensis, was ­isolated from the leaves of Ilex pubescens Hook. et Arn. Five compounds were separated from the ethyl acetate extract of the fermentation broth of endophytic actinomycetes, and their structures were confirmed by utilising methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, and literature references. These compounds were identified as Genistin (1), Esculetin (2), Ursolic acid (3), Chlorogenic acid (4), and Oleanolic acid (5). Compounds 1 and 4 showed inhibitory effects against Escherichia coli with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 0.7815 mg/mL and 0.7815 mg/mL, respectively; Compound 4 demonstrated inhibitory effects against Candida albicans, with an MIC value of 0.7815 mg/mL. The results of in vitro antioxidant activity demonstrated that Compounds 1 and 4 exhibited scavenging activity against the DPPH free radical, with IC50 values of 125 and 63 μg/mL, respectively.

description: The spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the diamond-decorated square lattice in the presence of a magnetic field displays various quantum phases including the Lieb-Mattis ferrimagnetic, dimer-tetramer, monomer-dimer, and spin-canted phases, in addition to the trivial fully saturated state. Thermodynamic properties of this model are investigated using several complementary analytical and numerical methods such as exact diagonalization up to the systems of 40 spins, an effective monomer-dimer description, sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo simulations for up to 180 spins, and a decoupling approximation. Our particular attention is focused on the parameter region favoring the dimer-tetramer phase. This ground state can be represented by a classical hard-dimer model on the square lattice and retains a macroscopic degeneracy even under a magnetic field. However, the description of the low-temperature thermodynamics close to the boundary between the macroscopically degenerate dimer-tetramer and the non-degenerate monomer-dimer phases requires an extended classical monomer-dimer lattice-gas model. Anomalous thermodynamic properties emerging in the vicinity of the dimer-tetramer phase are studied in detail. Under the adiabatic demagnetization we detect an enhanced magnetocaloric effect promoting an efficient cooling to absolute zero temperature, provided that the system reaches the dimer-tetramer ground state at zero field.

description: In stereo matching, CNNs have traditionally served as the predominant architectures. Although Transformer-based stereo models have been studied recently, their performance still lags behind CNN-based stereo models due to the inherent data scarcity issue in the stereo matching task. In this paper, we propose Masked Image Modeling Distilled Stereo matching model, termed MaDis-Stereo, that enhances locality inductive bias by leveraging Masked Image Modeling (MIM) in training Transformer-based stereo model. Given randomly masked stereo images as inputs, our method attempts to conduct both image reconstruction and depth prediction tasks. While this strategy is beneficial to resolving the data scarcity issue, the dual challenge of reconstructing masked tokens and subsequently performing stereo matching poses significant challenges, particularly in terms of training stability. To address this, we propose to use an auxiliary network (teacher), updated via Exponential Moving Average (EMA), along with the original stereo model (student), where teacher predictions serve as pseudo supervisory signals to effectively distill knowledge into the student model. State-of-the-arts performance is achieved with the proposed method on several stereo matching such as ETH3D and KITTI 2015. Additionally, to demonstrate that our model effectively leverages locality inductive bias, we provide the attention distance measurement.

Biological regulation of Earth's early atmosphere : metal isotope constraints on Neoarchaean methane cycling
Creators: name: Zavina-James, Natalya Andryivna Vladimirovna
Publisher: name: The University of St Andrews
Year: 2022

description: The Great Oxidation Event (GOE, c.2.43 Ga) marks a fundamental change in the interaction between the biosphere, atmosphere, and Earth’s surface environment. Recent studies suggest that Earth’s anoxic pre-GOE atmosphere was also heavily influenced by biological feedbacks. Notably, recent geochemical records (carbon and sulphur isotopes) suggest that a hydrocarbon-rich haze periodically formed as a result of enhanced methane fluxes, termed periodic haze events, from the biosphere. The extent to which the biosphere mediated these haze events is under-constrained, yet hypothesised to result from enhanced biological methane cycling. Copper and nickel are both bioessential trace metals utilised by aerobic methanotrophic bacteria and methanogenic archaea respectively, and it has been already demonstrated that methanogenic archaea fractionate Ni isotopes during metabolic uptake. This thesis applies these metal isotope systems to two well-preserved Archaean rock cores; the 2.5 Ga core GKF01 from the Griqualand West Basin, South Africa, and the 2.7 Ga core SV1 from the Hamersley Basin, Western Australia. Both cores exhibit carbon isotope evidence consistent with methane cycling, but reflect contrasting Archaean environments. In Chapter 3, a high-resolution copper isotope record measured in a suite of marine shales and carbonates from core GKF01 is presented. The data show a 0.8‰ range in copper isotope composition and a negative excursion that predates the onset of a pre-identified haze event. Examined alongside previously published carbon and sulphur isotope records, these data demonstrate a clear role for aearobic methanotrophy in the incorporation of methane into Late Archaean sediments. In Chapter 4, a similar high-resolution copper isotope record is analysed in sediments from core SV1, and copper isotope cycling in considered within the context of a mildly oxygenated, high pH lacustrine setting. A Copper isotope record reflecting approximate crustal average (c. 0.05‰) is reported, indicating either (1) a system in which no processes fractionate copper isotopes, (2) sedimentary phase homogenisation and/or overprinting of primary copper isotope signals by volcanic detrital input, or (3) complete consumption of copper by a copper-dependent process, however it is most likely that the record reflects process (2). Finally, Chapter 5 presents a high-resolution record of nickel isotopes in core GKF01 which reflects previously reported values of euxinic sediment and black shales (c. 0.28‰). The data presented in this thesis demonstrate the clear potential for these isotope systems to be applied as biomarkers for the investigation of deep time biological methane cycling, and recommendations for future studies are also explored.

description: Partial solvability plays an important role in the context of statistical mechanics, since it has turned out to be closely related to the emergence of quantum many-body scar states, i.e., exceptional energy eigenstates which do not obey the strong version of the eigenstate themalization hypothesis. We show that partial solvability of a quantum many-body system can be maintained even when the system is coupled to boundary dissipators under certain conditions. We propose two mechanisms that support partially solvable structures in boundary dissipative systems: The first one is based on the restricted spectrum generating algebra, while the second one is based on the Hilbert space fragmentation. From these structures, we derive exact eigenmodes of the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad equation for a family of quantum spin chain models with boundary dissipators, where we find various intriguing phenomena arising from the partial solvability of the open quantum systems, including persistent oscillations (quantum synchronization) and the existence of the matrix product operator symmetry. We discuss how the presence of solvable eigenmodes affects long-time behaviors of observables in boundary dissipative spin chains based on numerical simulations using the quantum trajectory method.

description: Mangrove-shrimp and rice-shrimp farming are vital organic models supporting shrimp farmers’ livelihoods in Ca Mau, a coastal province in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. This study examines the livelihood capital farmers utilize to implement these aquaculture systems, examining the methods employed, benefits gained, and strategies to address challenges of achieving sustainable livelihoods. The finding of focus group discussions (FGDs), key informant interviews, and household surveys show that farmers possess adequate livelihood capital to engage in both the mangrove–shrimp and rice–shrimp systems. Notably, net income per hectare from the rice–shrimp model exceeds that from the mangrove–shrimp model. However, climate variability and water quality issues significantly impact farming practices. The study identifies the need for improved infrastructure, particularly road development linking local and national markets, as a crucial recommendation from farmers and local authorities. Additionally, implementing water management strategies at the commune level emerges as a viable intervention to mitigate environmental pollution risks. This research underscores the importance of sustainable aquaculture practices, offering insights applicable to similar farming systems worldwide. Future research should focus on large-scale surveys and technical assessments of soil and water quality, facilitating comprehensive socio-economic and environmental analyses of these organic shrimp farming systems. The livelihoods of Ca Mau, Vietnam, are sustained by the unique farming systems of mangrove–shrimp and rice–shrimp. While these systems adapt to different ecosystems, rice–shrimp farming emerges as the more profitable option. The farmers in both systems demonstrate resilience, equipped with the necessary resources to combat external challenges such as weather events, wastewater, and market demands. Their focus on seed quality and water management underscores the importance of these factors in ensuring sustainable livelihoods. The crucial role of monitoring and controlling saltwater intrusion in the Mekong Delta’s aquaculture zones cannot be overstated.
