description: We propose a post-processor, called NeighborTrack, that leverages neighbor information of the tracking target to validate and improve single-object tracking (SOT) results. It requires no additional data or retraining. Instead, it uses the confidence score predicted by the backbone SOT network to automatically derive neighbor information and then uses this information to improve the tracking results. When tracking an occluded target, its appearance features are untrustworthy. However, a general siamese network often cannot tell whether the tracked object is occluded by reading the confidence score alone, because it could be misled by neighbors with high confidence scores. Our proposed NeighborTrack takes advantage of unoccluded neighbors' information to reconfirm the tracking target and reduces false tracking when the target is occluded. It not only reduces the impact caused by occlusion, but also fixes tracking problems caused by object appearance changes. NeighborTrack is agnostic to SOT networks and post-processing methods. For the VOT challenge dataset commonly used in short-term object tracking, we improve three famous SOT networks, Ocean, TransT, and OSTrack, by an average of ${1.92\%}$ EAO and ${2.11\%}$ robustness. For the mid- and long-term tracking experiments based on OSTrack, we achieve state-of-the-art ${72.25\%}$ AUC on LaSOT and ${75.7\%}$ AO on GOT-10K. Code duplication can be found in https://github.com/franktpmvu/NeighborTrack.

description: We examined a large population of Polish science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine (STEMM) scientists (N = 16,083) to study rank advancement and productivity. We used two previously neglected time dimensions - promotion age and promotion speed - to construct individual biographical profiles and publication profiles. We used a classificatory approach and the new methodological approach of journal prestige-normalized productivity. All scientists were allocated to different productivity, promotion age, and promotion speed classes (top 20%, middle 60%, and bottom 20%). The patterns were consistent across all disciplines: scientists in young promotion age classes (and fast promotion speed classes) in the past were currently the most productive. In contrast, scientists in old promotion age classes (and slow promotion speed classes) in the past were currently the least productive. In the three largest disciplines, the young-old promotion age productivity differential for associate professors was 100-200% (150-200% for full professors); and the fast-slow promotion speed productivity differential for associate professors was 80-150% (100-170% for full professors). Our results were confirmed by a regression analysis in which we found odds ratio estimates of membership in top productivity classes. We combined data collected from the national register of all Polish scientists and scholars (N = 99,935) and publication metadata on all Polish articles indexed in Scopus (N = 935,167).

description: Dark strings have recently been suggested to exist in new models of dark matter that explain the excessive electronic production in the galaxy. We study the interaction of these dark strings with semilocal strings which are solutions of the bosonic sector of the Standard Model in the limit $\sin^2θ_{\rm w}=1$, where $θ_{\rm w}$ is the Weinberg angle. While embedded Abelian-Higgs strings exist for generic values of the coupling constants, we show that semilocal solutions with non-vanishing condensate inside the string core exist only above a critical value of the Higgs to gauge boson mass ratio when interacting with dark strings. Above this critical value, which is greater than unity, the energy per unit length of the semilocal-dark string solutions is always smaller than that of the embedded Abelian-Higgs-dark string solutions and we show that Abelian-Higgs-dark strings become unstable above this critical value. Different from the non-interacting case, we would thus expect semilocal strings to be stable for values of the Higgs to gauge boson mass ratio larger than unity. Moreover, the one-parameter family of solutions present in the non-interacting case ceases to exist when semilocal strings interact with dark strings.

description: We provide an intuitive platform for engineering exciton transfer dynamics. We show that careful consideration of the spectral density, which describes the system-bath interaction, leads to opportunities to engineer the transfer of an exciton. Since excitons in nanostructures are proposed for use in quantum information processing and artificial photosynthetic designs, our approach paves the way for engineering a wide range of desired exciton dynamics. We carefully describe the validity of the model and use experimentally relevant material parameters to show counter-intuitive examples of a directed exciton transfer in a linear chain of quantum dots.
Approximating outcome probabilities of linear optical circuits

description: Quasiprobability representation is an important tool for analyzing a quantum system, such as a quantum state or a quantum circuit.
 In this work, we propose classical algorithms specialized for approximating outcome probabilities of a linear optical circuit using $s$-parameterized quasiprobability distributions. Notably, we can reduce the negativity bound of a circuit from exponential to at most polynomial for specific cases by modulating the shapes of quasiprobability distributions thanks to the norm-preserving property of a linear optical transformation.
 Consequently, our scheme renders an efficient estimation of outcome probabilities with precision depending on the classicality of the circuit.
 Surprisingly, when the classicality is high enough, we reach a polynomial-time estimation algorithm within a multiplicative error.
 Our results provide quantum-inspired algorithms for approximating various matrix functions beating best-known results. Moreover, we give sufficient conditions for the classical simulability of Gaussian boson sampling using the approximating algorithm for any (marginal) outcome probability under the poly-sparse condition.
 Our study sheds light on the power of linear optics, providing plenty of quantum-inspired algorithms for problems in computational complexity.

description: Purpose: Learning novel words, including the specific phonemes that make up word forms, is a struggle for many individuals with developmental language disorder (DLD). Building robust representations of words includes encoding during periods of input and consolidation between periods of input. The primary purpose of the current study is to determine differences between children with DLD and with typical development (TD) in the encoding and consolidation of word forms during the slow mapping process.Method: Preschool-age children (DLD = 9, TD = 9) were trained on nine form–referent pairs across multiple consecutive training days. Children’s ability to name referents at the end of training days indicated their ability to encode forms. Children’s ability to name referents at the beginning of training days after a period of overnight sleep indicated their ability to consolidate forms. Word learning was assessed 1 month after training to determine long-term retention of forms.Results: Throughout training, children with DLD produced fewer forms correctly and produced forms with less phonological precision than children with TD. Thus, children with DLD demonstrated impaired encoding. However, children with and without DLD demonstrated a similar ability to consolidate forms between training days and to retain forms across a 1-month delay.Conclusions: Difficulties with word form learning are primarily driven by deficits in encoding for children with DLD. Clinicians and educators can support encoding by providing children with adequate exposures to target words via robust training that occurs across multiple sessions.

description: Endothelial cells (ECs) are involved in a variety of cellular responses. As multifunctional components of vascular structures, endothelial (progenitor) cells have been utilized in cellular therapies and are required as an important cellular component of engineered tissue constructs and in vitro disease models. Although primary ECs from different sources are readily isolated and expanded, cell quantity and quality in terms of functionality and karyotype stability is limited. ECs derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) represent an alternative and potentially superior cell source, but traditional culture approaches and 2D differentiation protocols hardly allow for production of large cell numbers. Aiming at the production of ECs, we have developed a robust approach for efficient endothelial differentiation of hiPSCs in scalable suspension culture. The established protocol results in relevant numbers of ECs for regenerative approaches and industrial applications that show in vitro proliferation capacity and a high degree of chromosomal stability.

Data security includes information encryption, hashing, tokenization, and key administration practices that protect information across all applications and stages. Cloud framework for getting to information with mysterious confirmation gives safer client verification, client revocation and prevents replay attacks.  Access control is handled on cloud KDCs it is overall safer aimed at information encryption. Produced decentralized KDC's are then gathered by (KGC). Framework gives confirmation to the client, in which just framework approved clients can unscramble, view the put away data. Client approvals and access control plot is presented in cloud, which is important for hindering replay attacks and supports change of data set aside in the cloud. The entry control plot is procuring thought since just upheld clients should approach genuine examine. Our arrangement thwarts maintains creation, replay attacks, scrutinizing and adjust data set aside in the cloud. We in like manner address client disavowal. The issues of endorsement, access control, security affirmation should be handled simultaneously.

description: Given a scalar field with metastable minima, bubbles nucleate quantum mechanically. When bubbles collide, energy stored in the bubble walls is converted into kinetic energy of the field. This kinetic energy can facilitate the classical nucleation of new bubbles in minima that lie below those of the "parent" bubbles. This process is efficient and classical, and changes the dynamics and statistics of bubble formation in models with multiple vacua, relative to that derived from quantum tunneling.

description: We present a velocity-based moving mesh virtual element method for the numerical solution of PDEs involving moving boundaries. The virtual element method is used for computing both the mesh velocity and a conservative Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian solution transfer on general polygonal meshes. The approach extends the linear finite element method to polygonal mesh structures, achieving the same degree of accuracy. In the context of moving meshes, a major advantage of the virtual element approach is the ease with which nodes can be inserted on mesh edges. Demonstrations of node insertion techniques are presented to show that moving polygonal meshes can be simply adapted for situations where a boundary encounters a solid object or another moving boundary, without reduction in degree of accuracy.

The analysis of structures with particular reference to elastic instability of frames
Creators: name: Van der Woude, F
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania

description: Broadly speaking, an engineer's constant aim is the creation of something which serves mankind. In order to achieve his aim the engineer has to tackle numerous problems arising between the time of conception and the final bringing into service of the product. To this end it is convenient to picture the process as divided into three stages. The first stage is to recognise the existence of the real problem, with its multitude of complexities and details, all at varying levels of importance. The real problem is always too difficult to handle directly, and as an aid to thinking, great simplifications are made. The simplified problem may be called the physical model, in which only the more important aspects of the real problem are defined. The setting up of a physical model requires skill, judgement and, in most cases, experience with similar situations. It follows that the first physical model may at times be subject to subsequent variations and revisions. Finally, a mathematical model is formulated this model attempts to describe, by means of mathematical equations, the behaviour of the physical model. For example, if the real problem is one of structural design, the unknowns in the final equations are usually design parameters such as stress, deflection, beam depth and so on. Thus the solution of the equations defines the behaviour of the physical model in terms of design parameters, but the degree to which these apply to the real problem depends on how well the physical model represents the real structure. Final design is achieved only after many cycles of appraisal, modifications to the physical model, refinements, re-evaluation, and so on. The above philosophy is generally applicable, indeed it is believed to be the only successful method of problem solving in any field, especially in engineering. This thesis is concerned with the problem of the behaviour of framed structures. Throughout the work, emphasis is placed on the geometry of the deformations of the frame. Although it is often not appreciated, the geometric approach has dominated throughout the history of structural engineering development. The reason for this is obvious, because once the deformations of a structure are known, other quantities like stresses, strains, bending moments and so on, are easily calculated. Another reason is that deformations, unlike forces (the alternative to a geometric approach is a force approach), can be pictured and drawn to scale or sketched. Such a picture is readily obtained from experiments and one is always pleasantly surprised at how much information can be drawn from but the simplest measurements of deformations. The author has experienced most success from simply constructed, light and flexible models which, apart from being inexpensive, are easily deformed by hand, and the deformed models are quickly sketched or traced. Frequently a wire or cardboard model may be used in order to gain a preliminary understanding of the deformations.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The study focuses on the formulation and development of Piroxicam Mouth Dissolving Tablets (MDTs) to improve patient compliance, particularly for those with swallowing difficulties, such as the elderly and mentally ill. Excipients and Piroxicam were procured, with their identities confirmed via UV-visible and FT-IR spectroscopy. Multiple formulations were developed and optimized for rapid disintegration and dissolution, with formulation F6 identified as optimal in early tests. Further optimization, using experimental designs, identified formulation F9 as superior due to its enhanced disintegration properties. Preformulation studies assessed key parameters, including tablet appearance, melting point, weight uniformity, hardness, friability, wetting time, and disintegration time. Dissolution tests, conducted using the USP paddle method, helped determine the dissolution profile of the MDTs. Compatibility studies confirmed the stability of the drug and excipients under various conditions. Physical characterization was carried out using UV-spectrophotometric methods and FT-IR spectroscopy, and stability studies were conducted over three months at different temperatures and humidity levels to assess the shelf-life of the tablets. This study demonstrates the successful formulation, characterization, and stability of Piroxicam MDTs, highlighting their potential to improve patient adherence and the overall effectiveness of Piroxicam therapy.

description: Excellent conversion efficiencies of over 20% and facile cell production have placed hybrid perovskites at the forefront of novel solar cell materials, with CH3NH3PbI3 being an archetypal compound. The question why CH3NH3PbI3 has such extraordinary characteristics, particularly a very efficient power conversion from absorbed light to electrical power, is hotly debated, with ferroelectricity being a promising candidate. This does, however, require the crystal structure to be non-centrosymmetric and we herein present crystallographic evidence as to how the symmetry breaking occurs on a crystallographic and, therefore, long-range level. Although the molecular cation CH3NH3+ is intrinsically polar, it is heavily disordered and this cannot be the sole reason for the ferroelectricity. We show that it, nonetheless, plays an important role, as it distorts the neighboring iodide positions from their centrosymmetric positions.

description: The tree of life (TOL) is severely threatened by climate and land-cover changes. Preserving the TOL is urgent, but has not been included in the post-2020 global biodiversity framework. Protected areas (PAs) are fundamental for biological conservation. However, we know little about the effectiveness of existing PAs in preserving the TOL of plants and how to prioritize PA expansion for better TOL preservation under future climate and land-cover changes. Here, using high-resolution distribution maps of 8732 woody species in China and phylogeny-based Zonation, we find that current PAs perform poorly in preserving the TOL both at the present and in 2070s. The geographical coverage of TOL branches by current PAs is ca 9%, and less than 3% of the identified priority areas for preserving the TOL are currently protected. Interestingly, the geographical coverage of TOL branches by PAs will be improved from 9 to 52–79% by the identified priority areas for PA expansion. Human pressures in the identified priority areas are high, leading to high cost for future PA expansion. We thus suggest that besides nature reserves and national parks, other effective area-based conservation measures should be considered. Our study argues for the inclusion of preserving the TOL in the post-2020 conservation framework, and provides references for decision-makers to preserve the Earth's evolutionary history.

data-driven decision-making

description: This policy brief highlights the advantages of using Text Mining (TM) to enhance the analysis of public policies. TM enables the efficient analysis of large volumes of policy documents, helping to identify trends, key issues and the potential impacts of policy decisions.

The FOSSR project will play a crucial role in evaluating and analyzing policies, including in the context of Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI). By integrating innovative tools, data, services and methods, FOSSR aims to enhance research practices and policy evaluation. Applying advanced analytical techniques such as machine learning, network science, and knowledge representation through the construction of ontologies, text mining within the FOSSR project will help explore and uncover hidden relationships within large textual corpora.

In this policy brief, we demonstrate the potential of Text Mining in the STI context by addressing the following thematic questions:

1) can text mining help evaluate the alignment of R&D funding policies with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? 

2) can text mining track trends over time in environmental and societal themes within research topics?

Stakeholders are encouraged to explore Text Mining as a powerful tool to enhance evaluation processes across various sectors. By adopting TM techniques, institutions can gain deeper insights in their evaluations, leading to more data-driven decision-making and improved outcomes.

Exploring reputation management in an episodic event organisation : the case of Targa Tasmania
Creators: name: French, L
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Extant literature on the concept of 'corporate reputation' focuses on traditional organisations within markets for goods and services (Walsh, Mitchell, Jackson & Beatty 2009). However, a favourable reputation also provides competitive advantage to the growing number of episodic event-related organisational forms that operate in the social arena and the marketplace of ideas (Mahon & Wartick 2003). The paucity of research in this arena provides the research opportunity for this thesis. Based on a review of extant literature, a process model of reputation management in traditional organisations is presented as the basis for the specific research question in this thesis: To what extent are the factors present in the process model of organisational reputation management evident in an Episodic Event Organisation (EEO) context? This research was conducted as a quasi-longitudinal embedded single case study, focussing on the start-up stage, emerging growth, and mature stages of the annual Targa Tasmania (TT) rally event held in Tasmania, Australia's island state. The methodological approach commenced with the collection and analysis of secondary data pertaining to the TT event. This was followed by primary data collected via interviews with eighteen key informants. A thematic analysis of secondary and primary data was then conducted using the computer software NVivo 10. Research results indicated that many factors in the process Model derived from extant literature were analogous in their applicability to the EEO context, however there was some divergence. The important exceptions to the extant theory included the following: firstly, results indicated that in the context of EEO reputation management, it is a strategic imperative that the event's core mission is grounded in cultural links to its 'place' location. Secondly, results suggest an absence of Human Resource Management policies in an EEO context, meaning an inability to strategically control the behaviour of temporary employees. However, results also indicated that behaviour could be strategically influenced via actions such as, incorporating institutional rules into the event structure, and identifying key positions for 'volunteer ambassadors' who could be delegated the responsibility of recruiting and training volunteers within their locale. Thirdly, results suggest that the media exposure variables of 'tone' and 'recency' were amplified in an EEO context due to the event's ephemeral nature. Based on these results a process model of the factors of reputation management within an EEO context is presented.

description: Standard multiparameter eigenvalue problems (MEPs) are systems of $k\ge 2$ linear $k$-parameter square matrix pencils. Recently, a new form of multiparameter eigenvalue problems has emerged: a rectangular MEP (RMEP) with only one multivariate rectangular matrix pencil, where we are looking for combinations of the parameters for which the rank of the pencil is not full. Applications include finding the optimal least squares autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model and the optimal least squares realization of autonomous linear time-invariant (LTI) dynamical system. For linear and polynomial RMEPs, we give the number of solutions and show how these problems can be solved numerically by a transformation into a standard MEP. For the transformation we provide new linearizations for quadratic multivariate matrix polynomials with a specific structure of monomials and consider mixed systems of rectangular and square multivariate matrix polynomials. This numerical approach seems computationally considerably more attractive than the block Macaulay method, the only other currently available numerical method for polynomial RMEPs.

description: The tree of life (TOL) is severely threatened by climate and land-cover changes. Preserving the TOL is urgent, but has not been included in the post-2020 global biodiversity framework. Protected areas (PAs) are fundamental for biological conservation. However, we know little about the effectiveness of existing PAs in preserving the TOL of plants and how to prioritize PA expansion for better TOL preservation under future climate and land-cover changes. Here, using high-resolution distribution maps of 8732 woody species in China and phylogeny-based Zonation, we find that current PAs perform poorly in preserving the TOL both at the present and in 2070s. The geographical coverage of TOL branches by current PAs is ca 9%, and less than 3% of the identified priority areas for preserving the TOL are currently protected. Interestingly, the geographical coverage of TOL branches by PAs will be improved from 9 to 52–79% by the identified priority areas for PA expansion. Human pressures in the identified priority areas are high, leading to high cost for future PA expansion. We thus suggest that besides nature reserves and national parks, other effective area-based conservation measures should be considered. Our study argues for the inclusion of preserving the TOL in the post-2020 conservation framework, and provides references for decision-makers to preserve the Earth's evolutionary history.
An assignment model of urban housing demand
Creators: name: Mason, Greg C.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: A critical view of the literature on land rent and residential location is undertaken with special emphasis on the journey to work hypothesis. A housing demand model is constructed based upon the new demand theory advanced by K. J . Lancaster and an assignment model of housing developed by W. F. Smith. The model that is presented is a simple integer program that attempts to analyze housing demand given the assumption that both household and houses have unique and separable characteristics. These attributes of both the product and consumer are thought to affect the demand for different parts of the housing stock.

description: To observe the prognostic value of circular RNA mitochondrial tRNA translation optimization 1 (circMTO1) in human tumors. We searched multiple databases for related reports published before November 01, 2021. The OR/HR and 95% CI were extracted to explore the correlation between circMTO1 expression and clinicopathological features in various cancers. The stability of the results from meta-analysis was estimated via sensitivity analysis. We adopted Begg’s funnel plots and Egger’s test to appraise the potential bias of publication. Subgroup analysis for overall survival (OS) were also performed. 11 studies containing 1383 patients and 4 articles including 536 patients were enrolled. We found that low expression status of circMTO1 was significantly related to big tumor size (OR=2.11, 95% CI: 1.26-3.56, P<0.05), poor differentiation tumors (OR=2.09, 95% CI: 1.46-2.98, P<0.05), OS (HR=2.02, 95% CI: 1.63-2.50, P<0.05), disease-free survival (DFS) (HR=1.83, 95% CI: 1.27-2.56, P<0.05) of cancers. Subgroup analysis indicated that low expression status of circMTO1 was correlated with OS, regardless of analysis method, cut-off value, case number and NOS score.                   The low expression of circMTO1 may predict big tumor size, poor differentiation and worse outcome of cancer, presenting that circMTO1 may be a useful biomarker for prognosis of tumors.
