description: The behavior of non-spherical particles in a shear-flow is of significant practical and theoretical interest. These systems have been the object of numerous investigations since the pioneering work of Jeffery a century ago. His eponymous orbits describe the deterministic motion of an isolated, rod-like particle in a shear flow. Subsequently, the effect of adding noise was investigated. The theory has been applied to colloidal particles, macromolecules, anisometric granular particles and most recently to microswimmers, for example bacteria. We study the Jeffery orbits of elongated particles subject to noise using Langevin simulations and a Fokker-Planck equation. We extend the analytical solution for infinitely thin needles ($β=1$) obtained by Doi and Edwards to particles with arbitrary shape factor ($0\le β\le 1$) and validate the theory by comparing it with simulations. We examine the rotation of the particle around the vorticity axis and study the orientational order matrix. We use the latter to obtain scalar order parameters $s$ and $r$ describing nematic ordering and biaxiality from the orientational distribution function. The value of $s$ (nematic ordering) increases monotonically with increasing Péclet number, while $r$ (measure of biaxiality) displays a maximum value. From perturbation theory we obtain simple expressions that provide accurate descriptions at low noise (or large Péclet numbers). We also examine the orientational distribution in the v-grad v plane and in the perpendicular direction. Finally we present the solution of the Fokker-Planck equation for a strictly two-dimensional (2D) system. For the same noise amplitude the average rotation speed of the particle in 3D is larger than in 2D.

description: We propose a computational imaging method for time-efficient light-field acquisition that combines a coded aperture with an event-based camera. Different from the conventional coded-aperture imaging method, our method applies a sequence of coding patterns during a single exposure for an image frame. The parallax information, which is related to the differences in coding patterns, is recorded as events. The image frame and events, all of which are measured in a single exposure, are jointly used to computationally reconstruct a light field. We also designed an algorithm pipeline for our method that is end-to-end trainable on the basis of deep optics and compatible with real camera hardware. We experimentally showed that our method can achieve more accurate reconstruction than several other imaging methods with a single exposure. We also developed a hardware prototype with the potential to complete the measurement on the camera within 22 msec and demonstrated that light fields from real 3-D scenes can be obtained with convincing visual quality. Our software and supplementary video are available from our project website.

description: As every year at the annual meeting of China’s highest legislative body, the National People’s Congress (NPC), much attention is being paid to the government’s target for economic growth and concrete regulatory decisions with more immediate impact. 

MERICS Lead Analyst Nis Grunberg argues that the NPC is also an object lesson in Beijing’s ability to block out external events and short-term challenges to implement long-term goals through an easily confusing cascade of party, state and mixed party-state institutions. 

In his analysis, Grünberg discusses five long-term goals outlined last year at the five-yearly Third Plenum of the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Committee that deserve particular scrutiny: 

1. Advancing party-state capitalism to strengthen China 2. Countering US containment through supply-chain resilience3. Boosting innovation and talent to strengthen science and tech4. Reforming the fiscal system to properly fund state spending5. Ensuring the loyalty of the people to guarantee national security
Turbulent mixed convection in vertical and horizontal channels

description: Turbulent shear flows driven by a combination of a pressure gradient and buoyancy forcing are investigated using direct numerical simulations. Specifically, we consider the setup of a differentially heated vertical channel subject to a Poiseuille-like horizontal pressure gradient. We explore the response of the system to its three control parameters: the Grashof number $Gr$, the Prandtl number $Pr$, and the Reynolds number $Re$ of the pressure-driven flow. From these input parameters, the relative strength of buoyancy driving to the pressure gradient can be quantified by the Richardson number $Ri=Gr/Re^2$. We compare the response of the mixed vertical convection configuration to that of mixed Rayleigh-Bénard convection and find a nearly identical behaviour, including an increase in wall friction at higher $Gr$ and a drop in the heat flux relative to natural convection for $Ri=O(1)$. This closely matched response is despite vastly different flow structures in the systems. No large-scale organisation is visible in visualisations of mixed vertical convection - an observation that is quantitatively confirmed by spectral analysis. This analysis, combined with a statistical description of the wall heat flux, highlights how moderate shear suppresses the growth of small-scale plumes and reduces the likelihood of extreme events in the local wall heat flux. Vice versa, starting from a pure shear flow, the addition of thermal driving enhances the drag due to the emission of thermal plumes.

description: High-dimensional dynamical systems projected onto a reduced-order model cease to be deterministic and are best described by probability distributions in state space. Their equations of motion map onto an evolution operator with a deterministic component describing the projected dynamics, and a stochastic one from the neglected dimensions. It is shown that, for projections in which the deterministic component is dominant, `physics-free' stochastic Markovian models can be constructed that mimic many of the statistics of the real flow, even for fairly crude operator approximations. Deterministic models converge to steady states. This is related to general properties of Markov chains and illustrated with data-driven models for a moderate-Reynolds number turbulent channel.
title: Interactive Effects of Perception and Production Training on L2 Phonetic Acquisition
Creators: name: Ueda, Ruri
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2025

description: Although previous research has found that perception and production training improve L2 speech perception (e.g., Bradlow et al., 1997) and production (e.g., Hattori, 2009), respectively, the interactive effects of these two types of training are still an open question. Furthermore, studies have shown mixed findings on the effects of perception-and-production-mixed training (e.g., Baese-Berk & Samuel, 2016; Lu et al., 2015; Thorin et al., 2018). In addition to the effects of perception and production training, this thesis also considers the role of phonological short-term memory (PSTM) in phonetic acquisition, which has recently been suggested as a predictor of phonetic learning (e.g., Lengeris & Nicolaidis, 2014; MacKay et al., 2001). This thesis investigates the effects of production during perceptual training on the L2 phonetic acquisition of the English /l/-/r/ contrast with L1 Japanese speakers and examines the relationship between PSTM and L2 phonetic learning. Based on the findings, the relationship between perception and production is explored and the effective methods for phonetic acquisition are discussed. Experiments 1 (n = 46) and 2 (n = 61) examined how oral repetition during perceptual training affects perceptual learning using discrimination and identification tasks, respectively. The results revealed that perception-only training led to the most significant improvements in perceptual learning. Disruption occurred especially when participants repeated the stimulus after answering a perceptual question, but not when repeating immediately after hearing it. Experiment 3 (n = 60) investigated whether and how the formation of phonetic categories through exposure to target phonemes facilitates phonetic learning. The results showed that training involving production practice improved production accuracy more than perception-only training, especially when training began with perception-only training and shifted to production-only training. These findings suggest that while production practice is important for pronunciation learning, an initial focus on perception followed by production practice leads to better learning outcomes. The PSTM results revealed no significant relationship between PSTM capacity and either perception or production accuracy before training. Regarding the degree of learning after phonetic training, the findings suggest that the relationship between PSTM capacity and perceptual learning may vary based on initial perceptual ability, with greater PSTM potentially having a positive influence as learning progresses.

description: We investigate the connection between a cluster's structural configuration and observable measures of its gas emission that can be obtained in X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) surveys. We present an analytic model for the intracluster gas density profile: parameterised by the dark matter halo's inner logarithmic density slope, $α$, the concentration, $c$, the gas profile's inner logarithmic density slope, $\varepsilon$, the dilution, $d$, and the gas fraction, $η$, normalised to cosmological content. We predict four probes of the gas emission: the emission-weighted, $T_\mathrm{X}$, and mean gas mass-weighted, $T_\mathrm{m_g}$, temperatures, and the spherically, $Y_\mathrm{sph}$, and cylindrically, $Y_\mathrm{cyl}$, integrated Compton parameters. Over a parameter space of clusters, we constrain the X-ray temperature scaling relations, $M_{200} - T_\mathrm{X}$ and $M_{500} - T_\mathrm{X}$, within $57.3\%$ and $41.6\%$, and $M_{200} - T_\mathrm{m_g}$ and $M_{500} - T_\mathrm{m_g}$, within $25.7\%$ and $7.0\%$, all respectively. When excising the cluster's core, the $M_{200} - T_\mathrm{X}$ and $M_{500} - T_\mathrm{X}$ relations are further constrained, to within $31.3\%$ and $17.1\%$, respectively. Similarly, we constrain the SZ scaling relations, $M_{200} - Y_\mathrm{sph}$ and $M_{500} - Y_\mathrm{sph}$, within $31.1\%$ and $17.7\%$, and $M_{200} - Y_\mathrm{cyl}$ and $M_{500} - Y_\mathrm{cyl}$, within $25.2\%$ and $22.0\%$, all respectively. The temperature observable $T_\mathrm{m_g}$ places the strongest constraint on the halo mass, whilst $T_\mathrm{X}$ is more sensitive to the parameter space. The SZ constraints are sensitive to the gas fraction, whilst insensitive to the form of the gas profile itself. In all cases, the halo mass is recovered with an uncertainty that suggests the cluster's structural profiles only contribute a minor uncertainty in its scaling relations.

title: Data-driven Glucose Prediction for Type 1 Diabetes: Modeling, Adaptation and Engineering
Creators: name: Cui, Ran
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2025

description: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic disease affecting over 9 million people worldwide, requiring continuous external insulin delivery to control blood glucose levels. Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) systems have enabled individuals to track glucose trends, and the availability of CGM data has made data-driven glucose prediction using Machine Learning (ML) a central focus in biomedical research. This PhD thesis aims to advance data-driven glucose prediction through three key objectives: modeling, adaptation, and engineering. The modeling objective seeks to enhance existing techniques, such as Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The adaptation objective focuses on tailoring generic glucose prediction models to individual patients, particularly when personalized data is limited. The engineering objective addresses practical implementation, optimizing computational efficiency, and improving data processing. Five studies underpin this research. The first study examines the correlation between diabetes and various blood biomarkers using ML classification. By analyzing 9,549 individuals from the China Health and Nutrition Survey dataset, an XGBoost algorithm achieved over 86% F1 score, with blood glucose shown to be the most significant factor in determining diabetes. The second study introduces the Recurrent Self-Attention Network (RSAN) for glucose prediction, using a self-attention mechanism to outperform traditional RNN and TCN models. RSAN achieved state-of-the-art results on the OhioT1DM dataset, with transfer learning improving predictions by approximately 1 mg/dL. The third study explores a novel time-index modeling approach, contrasting it with historical-value models. The Meta-Optimised Time-Index Model (MOTIM) reduced the problem to point-to-point mapping, significantly improving efficiency while maintaining predictive accuracy. MOTIM demonstrated comparable performance to historical-value models but with much lower computational costs. The fourth study redefines postprandial glucose prediction as the joint prediction of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. A unified Long Short-Term Memory model with two linear heads achieved superior performance on the OhioT1DM dataset, with Matthew's correlation coefficients of 0.61 for hyperglycemia and 0.48 for hypoglycemia. The final study compares rolling and direct prediction schemes, as well as single-point and excursion prediction targets. Experiments using the OhioT1DM dataset demonstrated that direct and excursion predictions offer better accuracy and efficiency. This thesis contributes to the fields of modeling, adaptation, and engineering for data-driven glucose prediction, advancing the potential for precise and reliable prediction technology for T1DM. The open-source code developed during this research is available to support further study.

description: In this work we consider the problem of optimizing a stellarator subject to hard constraints on the design variables and physics properties of the equilibrium. We survey current numerical methods for handling these constraints, and summarize a number of methods from the wider optimization community that have not been used extensively for stellarator optimization thus far. We demonstrate the utility of new methods of constrained optimization by optimizing a QA stellarator for favorable physics properties while preventing strong shaping of the plasma boundary which can be difficult to create with external current sources.

description: An important question in dynamical systems is the classification problem, i.e., the ability to distinguish between two isomorphic systems. In this work, we study the topological factors between a family of multidimensional substitutive subshifts generated by morphisms with uniform support. We prove that it is decidable to check whether two minimal aperiodic substitutive subshifts are isomorphic. The strategy followed in this work consists of giving a complete description of the factor maps between these subshifts. Then, we deduce some interesting consequences on coalescence, automorphism groups, and the number of aperiodic symbolic factors of substitutive subshifts. We also prove other combinatorial results on these substitutions, such as the decidability of defining a subshift, the computability of the constant of recognizability, and the conjugacy between substitutions with different supports.

description: We study the effects of a finite mass for the photon on its propagation in a weak gravitational field. In particular, we analyse the gravitational time delay, also known as the Shapiro effect. We work in isotropic coordinates in the weak-field limit and find that the mass-dependent corrections enhance the gravitational time delay. Doppler-tracking data from the Cassini mission allow us to set an upper bound on the photon mass, namely $m_γ< 4.9 \times 10^{-7} \, {\rm eV/c^2}$ at $95\%$ CL. We also discuss next-generation solar-system tests of general relativity that could improve this upper limit, potentially by a factor of ten. Though not competitive with the currently best limits, our bound is at the ballpark of earlier ones based on the gravitational bending of light by the Sun.

Impact of Spanwise Rotation on Flow Separation and Recovery Behind a Bulge in Channel Flows

description: Direct numerical simulations of spanwise-rotating turbulent channel flow with a parabolic bump on the bottom wall are employed to investigate the effects of rotation on flow separation. Four rotation rates of $Ro_b := 2ΩH/U_b = \pm 0.42, \; \pm 1.0$ are compared with the non-rotating scenario. The mild adverse pressure gradient induced by the lee side of the bump allows for a variable pressure-induced separation. The separation region is reduced (increased) when the bump is on the anti-cyclonic (cyclonic) side of the channel, compared with the non-rotating separation. The total drag is reduced in all rotating cases. Through several mechanisms, rotation alters the onset of separation, reattachment, and wake recovery. The mean momentum deficit is found to be the key. A physical interpretation of the ratio between the system rotation and mean shear vorticity, $S:=Ω/Ω_s$, provides the mechanisms regarding stability thresholds of $S=-0.5$ and $-1$. The rotation effects are explained accordingly with reference to the dynamics of several flow structures. For anti-cyclonic separation, particularly, the interaction between the Taylor-Görtler vortices and hairpin vortices of wall-bounded turbulence is proven to be responsible for the breakdown of the separating shear layer. A generalized argument is made regarding the essential role of near-wall deceleration and resultant ejection of enhanced hairpin vortices in destabilizing an anti-cyclonic flow. This mechanism is anticipated to have broad impacts on other applications in analogy to rotating shear flows, such as thermal convection and boundary layers over concave walls.

Topological Dipole Insulator

description: We expand the concept of two-dimensional topological insulators to encompass a novel category known as topological dipole insulators (TDIs), characterized by conserved dipole moments along the $x$-direction in addition to charge conservation. By generalizing Laughlin's flux insertion argument, we prove a no-go theorem and predict possible edge patterns and anomalies in a TDI with both charge $U^e(1)$ and dipole $U^d(1)$ symmetries. The edge of a TDI is characterized as a quadrupolar channel that displays a dipole $U^d(1)$ anomaly. A quantized amount of dipole gets transferred between the edges under the dipolar flux insertion, manifesting as `quantized quadrupolar Hall effect' in TDIs. A microscopic coupled-wire Hamiltonian realizing the TDI is constructed by introducing a mutually commuting pair-hopping terms between wires to gap out all the bulk modes while preserving the dipole moment. The effective action at the quadrupolar edge can be derived from the wire model, with the corresponding bulk dipolar Chern-Simons response theory delineating the topological electromagnetic response in TDIs. Finally, we enrich our exploration of topological dipole insulators to the spinful case and construct a dipolar version of the quantum spin Hall effect, whose boundary evidences a mixed anomaly between spin and dipole symmetry. Effective bulk and the edge action for the dipolar quantum spin Hall insulator are constructed as well.

Spectro-polarimetric study to constrain accretion-ejection properties of MCG-5-23-16 using IXPE and NuSTAR observations

description: We conducted a study on the X-ray polarization properties of MCG-5-23-16 by analyzing long-term monitoring data from {\it NuSTAR} jointly with {\it IXPE} observations made in May and November 2022. The re-analysis of {\it IXPE} data gives model-dependent polarization degree, PD (\%) = $1.08\pm0.66$ in the energy band $2-8$ keV. The model-independent analysis of PD poses an upper limit of $\leq3.8$ ($1σ$ level) for the same energy band. The observed upper limit of PD, along with broadband spectral analysis ($2-79$ keV) using an accretion-ejection based model, allowed us to derive the corona geometry (i.e. radius and height) and the accretion disk inclination ($\sim 33^\circ$). Additional {\it NuSTAR} observations were also analyzed to gain insights into the accretion flow properties of the source and to estimate the expected polarization during those epochs with PD $\sim 4.3\%$. The radius and height of the corona varies between $28.2\pm3.1 - 39.8\pm4.6$ r$_s$ and $14.3\pm1.7-21.4\pm1.9$ r$_s$ respectively, with a mass outflow rate from the corona measuring $0.14\pm0.03-0.2\pm0.03$ Eddington rate ($\dot m_{\rm Edd}$). The spectral analysis further provided an estimate for the mass of the central black hole $\sim 2\times 10^7$ M$_\odot$ and the velocity of the outflowing gas $\sim 0.16-0.19c$. A comparative broadband spectral study using reflection-based models estimates the disk inclination between $\sim 31^\circ\pm8^\circ-45^\circ\pm7^\circ$, and yields an expected PD of 3.4-6.0\%. The expected PD measured using accretion-ejection and reflection models is less compared to the expected PD measured for a given disk inclination of $45^\circ$. Our modeling of the disk-corona-outflows and polarization connection can be extended and validated with data from the recently launched \textit{XPoSat}, India's first X-ray Polarimeter Satellite, offering potential applications to other sources.

The socle of subshift algebras, with applications to subshift conjugacy

description: We introduce the concept of "irrational paths" for a given subshift and use it to characterize all minimal left ideals in the associated unital subshift algebra. Consequently, we characterize the socle as the sum of the ideals generated by irrational paths. Proceeding, we construct a graph such that the Leavitt path algebra of this graph is graded isomorphic to the socle. This realization allows us to show that the graded structure of the socle serves as an invariant for the conjugacy of Ott-Tomforde-Willis subshifts and for the isometric conjugacy of subshifts constructed with the product topology. Additionally, we establish that the socle of the unital subshift algebra is contained in the socle of the corresponding unital subshift C*-algebra.
