description: Recent experiment reported the robust zero-energy states with strange properties in a trilayer heterostructure MnTe/Bi2Te3/Fe(Te,Se). Here, we give comprehensive understandings about the magnetic and electronic properties of the heterostructure, and propose ferromagnetic Mn-Bi antisite defects are generated in the topmost sublayer of Bi2Te3 and hidden below the MnTe layer. We further reveal the defect can induce two types of quasiparticles. One is Yu-Shiba-Rusinov state from defect itself, and another is Majorana zero mode from the superconducting phase domain wall induced by the defect. The two types of quasiparticles have very different response to magnetic field, temperature etc. The coexistence and mutual cooperation of both can explain experimental observations. Furthermore, we propose more simple heterostructure with superiority to generate and finely modulate Majorana zero modes.

The Association between Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Symptom Dimensions and Relationship Functioning
Creators: name: Campbell, Allison A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) affects individual functioning by causing
obsessional anxiety and urges to avoid and perform senseless compulsive rituals. But
OCD also affects, and is affected by, interpersonal functioning. The present study
examined the associations between various theme-based OCD symptom dimensions and
relationship variables in a sample of 21 couples in which one partner had an OCD
diagnosis. Correlations were completed which associated the different OCD symptom
dimensions with different relationship dynamics. Results indicated there to be less overall
relationship satisfaction, more accommodation, more and perceived criticism in couples
where the patient reported contamination OCD symptoms. The correlations also revealed
less perceived criticism and more constructive communication in couples where the
patient reported unacceptable thought OCD symptoms. These findings suggest that
different OCD symptoms have different associations with relationship dynamics and
suggest the need for further research on the interpersonal aspects of OCD.

description: Authentication forms the gateway to any secure system. Together with integrity, confidentiality and authorization it helps in preventing any sort of intrusions into the system. Up until a few years back password based authentication was the most common form of authentication to any secure network. But with the advent of more sophisticated technologies this form of authentication although still widely used has become insecure. Furthermore, with the rise of 'Internet of Things' where the number of devices would grow manifold it would be infeasible for user to remember innumerable passwords. Therefore, it's important to address this concern by devising ways in which multiple forms of authentication would be required to gain access to any smart devices and at the same time its usability would be high. In this paper, a methodology is discussed as to what kind of authentication mechanisms could be deployed in internet of things (IOT).

description: Advocating for the care of new and emerging forms of digital art requires understanding its preservation and access risks. Speaking directly with artists is key and it’s not often an organization has a captive audience of artists available to provide information on the risks facing their work. Sundance Institute has found that its festival and lab are valuable platforms for collecting this information. The poster will illustrate our discovery process and provide insight to what a variety of new and established artists are saying about the risks facing their work. Using the aggregate data, we will explore how to better support artists and resource needs. By sharing our experience, we want to create a dialogue around collaborative data collection, sharing, and standardization to expand and diversify the work documented through an alliance of organizations.

description: Potentiality of the presence of traversable wormholes in the outer/inner regions of the halos of galaxies, situated on the Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) density profile and Universal Rotation Curve (URC) dark matter models have been investigated recently. Since this covers our own galaxy also as a possible home for traversable wormholes it prompts us to further the subject by considering alternative density distributions. From this token herein we make use of the Einasto model to describe the density profiles for the same purpose. Our choice for the latter is based on the fact that theoretical dark matter halos produced in computer simulations are best described by such a profile. For technical reasons we trim the number of parameters in the Einasto profile to a possible minimum. Based on such a model it is shown that traversable wormholes in the outer regions of spiral galaxies are possible while the inner part regions prohibit such formations.

description: The detection of magnons and their quantum properties, especially in antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials, is a substantial step to realize many ambitious advances in the study of nanomagnetism and the development of energy efficient quantum technologies. The recent development of hybrid systems based on superconducting circuits provides the possibility of engineering quantum sensors that exploit different degrees of freedom. Here, we examine the magnon-photon-transmon hybridisation based on bipartite AFM materials, which gives rise to an effective coupling between a transmon qubit and magnons in a bipartite AFM. We demonstrate how magnetically invisible magnon modes, their chiralities and quantum properties such as nonlocality and two-mode magnon entanglement in bipartite AFMs can be characterized through the Rabi frequency of the superconducting transmon qubit.
Diacritic Recognition Performance in Arabic ASR

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: We present an analysis of diacritic recognition performance in Arabic Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems. As most existing Arabic speech corpora do not contain all diacritical marks, which represent short vowels and other phonetic information in Arabic script, current state-of-the-art ASR models do not produce full diacritization in their output. Automatic text-based diacritization has previously been employed both as a pre-processing step to train diacritized ASR, or as a post-processing step to diacritize the resulting ASR hypotheses. It is generally believed that input diacritization degrades ASR performance, but no systematic evaluation of ASR diacritization performance, independent of ASR performance, has been conducted to date. In this paper, we attempt to experimentally clarify whether input diacritiztation indeed degrades ASR quality, and to compare the diacritic recognition performance against text-based diacritization as a post-processing step. We start with pre-trained Arabic ASR models and fine-tune them on transcribed speech data with different diacritization conditions: manual, automatic, and no diacritization. We isolate diacritic recognition performance from the overall ASR performance using coverage and precision metrics. We find that ASR diacritization significantly outperforms text-based diacritization in post-processing, particularly when the ASR model is fine-tuned with manually diacritized transcripts.

description: The exact solution of the Ising model on the complete graph (CG) provides an important, though mean-field, insight for the theory of continuous phase transitions. Besides the original spin, the Ising model can be formulated in the Fortuin-Kasteleyn random-cluster and the loop representation, in which many geometric quantities have no correspondence in the spin representations. Using a lifted-worm irreversible algorithm, we study the CG-Ising model in the loop representation, and, based on theoretical and numerical analyses, obtain a number of exact results including volume fractal dimensions and scaling forms. Moreover, by combining with the Loop-Cluster algorithm, we demonstrate how the loop representation can provide an intuitive understanding to the recently observed rich geometric phenomena in the random-cluster representation, including the emergence of two configuration sectors, two length scales and two scaling windows.

description: The Library of Congress web archiving (LCWA) program has been selecting and harvesting Web sites since 2000. From the current corpus, we are working to build datasets of various media types that could be of interest to researchers and others working with tools for file characterization and validation, amongst other digital preservation tasks. We have restricted the files to those harvested from .gov domains, which offers a unique opportunity to make these files available as government works. The long timeframe of collecting ensures that these represent a wide range of versions and uses of many types of content. We are exploring the development and distribution of these file sets as one aspect of our research work to answer the persistent need and desire across digital content management fields to obtain test sets of real world files for use in benchmarking and testing digital content management tools and services. Content from the LCWA presents a unique opportunity to produce such real world test sets of files for use internally and externally to advance digital content management research and practice. In this lightning talk, we will present a brief overview of an initial sample of 1,000 pdfs. This analysis was undertaken with basic tools and offers a first view into the possibilities for identifying, extracting, and using this Web archive data in applied research.
The Skynet Algorithm for Single-Dish Radio Mapping
Creators: name: Berger, Travis A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: After the National Radio Astronomy Observatory’s 20-meter diameter telescope in Green Bank,
West Virginia was added to the Skynet Robotic Telescope Network - which includes optical
telescopes spanning four continents - a need for a radio data-processing pipeline arose. Therefore,
development began to create a pipeline similar to optical Skynet’s Afterglow, and the single-dish
radio mapping algorithm was born. This algorithm has a number of advantages over traditional
techniques, such as basket-weaving. (1) The algorithm makes use of weighted modeling, instead
of weighted averaging, to interpolate between signal measurements. This smooths the data, but
without blurring it beyond instrumental resolution. Techniques that rely on weighted averaging
blur point sources sometimes as much as 40%. (2) The algorithm makes use of local, instead of
global, modeling to separate astronomical signal from instrumental and/or environmental signal
drift along the telescope’s scans. (3) The algorithm uses a very similar, local modeling technique
to separate astronomical signal from radio-frequency interference (RFI). (4) Unlike other
techniques, the algorithm does not require data to be collected on a rectangular grid or regridded
before processing. (5) Any pixel density may be selected for the final image. Here, the procedure
is presented and evaluated using both simulated and real data. The algorithm is being integrated
into the image-processing library of Skynet. Default data products will be generated on the fly,
but will be customizable by the user in real time.
The Dear Baby Project: An Interactive Journaling Tool for Pregnancy Education
Creators: name: Danforth, Emily
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: A wide body of literature indicates that pregnancy and childbirth education is often inaccessible
and that it inadequately addresses psychological aspects of pregnancy. This paper reviews the
numerous barriers to providing useful prenatal education and outlines the ideal approach to
prenatal teaching. Then, the author presents the concept for new tool for interactive pregnancy
education, The Dear Baby Project. The Dear Baby Project is a self-contained kit that involves the
cognitive, physical, and affective aspects of pregnancy and delivers health information while
leading women to create a scrapbook and journal of their pregnancy. The Dear Baby Project
capitalizes on the known benefits of reflection and journaling to provide a fun approach to
pregnancy and parenting education. The exercises contained in the Dear Baby Project guide
women through important learning topics and promote a feeling of mental and emotional
readiness. The Dear Baby Project is meant to address six educational units and this paper
presents the pilot materials for one of those units: emotions and emotional aspects of pregnancy
and parenting. With careful attention to readability, appropriateness and suitability of materials,
the author provides examples of educational, art, and literary components from the kit. The
flexibility of this design will allow clinicians to select relevant modules and distribute kits that
are tailored to each patient’s individual risks, needs, interests, and expectations. The final portion
of this paper describes the next steps in the project’s design and implementation and proposes
some innovative modifications for the project content.

description: With the arrival of the R packages nlme and lme4, linear mixed models (LMMs) have come to be widely used in experimentally-driven areas like psychology, linguistics, and cognitive science. This tutorial provides a practical introduction to fitting LMMs in a Bayesian framework using the probabilistic programming language Stan. We choose Stan (rather than WinBUGS or JAGS) because it provides an elegant and scalable framework for fitting models in most of the standard applications of LMMs. We ease the reader into fitting increasingly complex LMMs, first using a two-condition repeated measures self-paced reading study, followed by a more complex $2\times 2$ repeated measures factorial design that can be generalized to much more complex designs.

description: A quick search on diversity in business will bring up numerous articles and studies quoting stats about the increased successes of organisations with diverse workforces. These include figures such as an 80% improvement in business performance when levels of diversity and inclusion are high, and a 3-9% increase in sales revenues for every 1% increase in the rate of gender or ethnic diversity in a workforce. It also been demonstrated as having a positive impact on innovation and problem-solving; in a field such as Digital Preservation this should make encouraging diversity essential. These figures do, however, come with a disclaimer: taking a lip-service-only approach to diversity can lead to greater conflict and reduced productivity. Individuals must feel properly supported by management and their peers, and work must go into creating a real culture of understanding. We all feel more comfortable and perform better in an environment where we are respected, understood and appreciated. Likewise, working with people who have different life experiences challenges us to think differently and helps us innovate. As an organisation with community at its core, the Digital Preservation Coalition has decided to make a clear statement about its commitment to these issues through its new ‘Inclusion and Diversity Policy’. This presentation will explore the main themes of that document, whilst also encouraging a broader dialogue about how the Digital Preservation community can further steps towards inviting new voices to contribute to our discipline.

description: We measure and analyse the clustering of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) relative to the line-of-sight (LOS), for LOWZ and CMASS galaxy samples drawn from the final Data Release 12 (DR12). The LOWZ sample contains 361\,762 galaxies with an effective redshift of $z_{\rm lowz}=0.32$, and the CMASS sample 777\,202 galaxies with an effective redshift of $z_{\rm cmass}=0.57$. From the power spectrum monopole and quadrupole moments around the LOS, we measure the growth of structure parameter $f$ times the amplitude of dark matter density fluctuations $σ_8$ by modeling the Redshift-Space Distortion signal. When the geometrical Alcock-Paczynski effect is also constrained from the same data, we find joint constraints on $fσ_8$, the product of the Hubble constant and the comoving sound horizon at the baryon drag epoch $H(z)r_s(z_d)$, and the angular distance parameter divided by the sound horizon $D_A(z)/r_s(z_d)$. We find $f(z_{\rm lowz})σ_8(z_{\rm lowz})=0.394\pm0.062$, $D_A(z_{\rm lowz})/r_s(z_d)=6.35\pm0.19$, $H(z_{\rm lowz})r_s(z_d)=(11.41\pm 0.56)\,{10^3\rm km}s^{-1}$ for the LOWZ sample, and $f(z_{\rm cmass})σ_8(z_{\rm cmass})=0.444\pm0.038$, $D_A(z_{\rm cmass})/r_s(z_d)=9.42\pm0.15$, $H(z_{\rm cmass})r_s(z_d)=(13.92 \pm 0.44)\, {10^3\rm km}s^{-1}$ for the CMASS sample. We find general agreement with previous BOSS DR11 measurements. Assuming the Hubble parameter and angular distance parameter are fixed at fiducial $Λ$CDM values, we find $f(z_{\rm lowz})σ_8(z_{\rm lowz})=0.485\pm0.044$ and $f(z_{\rm cmass})σ_8(z_{\rm cmass})=0.436\pm0.022$ for the LOWZ and CMASS samples, respectively.

description: INTRODUCTION: CD8+ T cells infiltrate virtually every tissue to find and destroy infected or mutated cells. They often traverse varying oxygen levels and nutrient-deprived microenvironments. High glycolytic activity in local tissues can result in significant exposure of cytotoxic T cells to the lactate metabolite. Lactate has been known to act as an immunosuppressor, at least in part due to its association with tissue acidosis. METHODS: To dissect the role of the lactate anion, independently of pH, we performed phenotypical and metabolic assays, high-throughput RNA sequencing, and mass spectrometry, on primary cultures of murine or human CD8+ T cells exposed to high doses of pH-neutral sodium lactate. RESULTS: The lactate anion is well tolerated by CD8+ T cells in pH neutral conditions. We describe how lactate is taken up by activated CD8+ T cells and can displace glucose as a carbon source. Activation in the presence of sodium lactate significantly alters the CD8+ T cell transcriptome, including the expression key effector differentiation markers such as granzyme B and interferon-gamma. DISCUSSION: Our studies reveal novel metabolic features of lactate utilization by activated CD8+ T cells, and highlight the importance of lactate in shaping the differentiation and activity of cytotoxic T cells.

description: A study of multiplicity and pseudorapidity distributions of inclusive photons measured in pp and p$-$Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon$-$nucleon collision of $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV using the ALICE detector in the forward pseudorapidity region $2.3 < η_{\rm lab} < 3.9$ is presented. Measurements in p$-$Pb collisions are reported for two beam configurations in which the directions of the proton and lead ion beam were reversed. The pseudorapidity distributions in p$-$Pb collisions are obtained for seven centrality classes which are defined based on different event activity estimators, i.e., the charged-particle multiplicity measured at midrapidity as well as the energy deposited in a calorimeter at beam rapidity. The inclusive photon multiplicity distributions for both pp and p$-$Pb collisions are described by double negative binomial distributions. The pseudorapidity distributions of inclusive photons are compared to those of charged particles at midrapidity in \pp collisions and for different centrality classes in p$-$Pb collisions. The results are compared to predictions from various Monte Carlo event generators. None of the generators considered in this paper reproduces the inclusive photon multiplicity distributions in the reported multiplicity range. The pseudorapidity distributions are, however, better described by the same generators.

Low to Moderate Arsenic Exposure May Not Increase the Risk of Incident Hypertension
Creators: name: Patel, Janki
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Background: Some research suggests that arsenic plays a role in hypertension, but more evidence is needed to properly evaluate the association between arsenic exposure and hypertension. Objectives: This study explores the relationship between arsenic exposure and hypertension. In this study, we accomplish two goals. First, we analyze arsenic exposure among different populations. Second, we determine the association between hypertension and arsenic levels while accounting for confounding variables.Methods: We used a sub-cohort data from a longitudinal study, the China Health and Nutrition Survey. We followed up 2,492 non-hypertensive participants aged 20 – 65 years old who had blood pressure data and toenail samples measured in 2009 through 2015. We measured blood pressure with sphygmomanometer and standard cuff and arsenic concentration in toenail samples by using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). We used logistic regression models to estimate the association between arsenic quartiles and incident hypertension. Results: The average arsenic concentration was 0.46 (± 0.48) mg/kg and the median was 0.33 mg/kg. The incidence of hypertension was 24.6% during the six follow-up years, varying from 26.3% in the first (lowest) quartile to 21.8% in the fourth (highest) quartile. Compared to the first quartile, the relative risk (RR) was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.65 – 1.11), 0.95 (95% CI: 0.72 – 1.25), and 0.71 (95% CI: 0.52 – 0.95) from the second to the fourth quartile, respectively, controlled for age, gender, body mass index, and some other confounders.Conclusions: Low to moderate arsenic exposure might decrease the risk of hypertension. More research is needed to fully determine the effects of arsenic exposure on hypertension.

description: Planets are known to orbit giant stars, yet there is a shortage of planets orbiting within ~0.5 AU (P<100 days). First-ascent giants have not expanded enough to engulf such planets, but tidal forces can bring planets to the surface of the star far beyond the stellar radius. So the question remains: are tidal forces strong enough in these stars to engulf all the missing planets? We describe a high-cadence observational program to obtain precise radial velocities of bright giants from Weihai Observatory of Shandong University. We present data on the planet host Beta Gem (HD 62509), confirming our ability to derive accurate and precise velocities; our data achieve an rms of 7.3 m/s about the Keplerian orbit fit. This planet-search programme currently receives ~100 nights per year, allowing us to aggressively pursue short-period planets to determine whether they are truly absent.

description: Recent advances in digitization have led to the availability of multivariate time series data in various domains, enabling real-time monitoring of operations. Identifying abnormal data patterns and detecting potential failures in these scenarios are important yet rather challenging. In this work, we propose a novel unsupervised anomaly detection method for time series data. The proposed framework jointly learns the observation model and the dynamic model, and model uncertainty is estimated from normal samples. Specifically, a long short-term memory (LSTM)-based encoder-decoder is adopted to represent the mapping between the observation space and the latent space. Bidirectional transitions of states are simultaneously modeled by leveraging backward and forward temporal information. Regularization of the latent space places constraints on the states of normal samples, and Mahalanobis distance is used to evaluate the abnormality level. Empirical studies on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method in anomaly detection tasks.

description: The Yukawa one-component plasma (OCP) is a paradigm model for describing plasmas that contain one component of interest and one or more other components that can be treated as a neutralizing, screening background. In appropriately scaled units, interactions are characterized entirely by a screening parameter, $κ$. As a result, systems of similar $κ$ show the same dynamics, regardless of the underlying parameters (e.g., density and temperature). We demonstrate this behavior using ultracold neutral plasmas (UNP) created by photoionizing a cold ($T\le10$ mK) gas. The ions in UNP systems are well described by the Yukawa model, with the electrons providing the screening. Creation of the plasma through photoionization can be thought of as a rapid quench from $κ_{0}=\infty$ to a final $κ$ value set by the electron density and temperature. We demonstrate experimentally that the post-quench dynamics are universal in $κ$ over a factor of 30 in density and an order of magnitude in temperature. Results are compared with molecular dynamics simulations. We also demonstrate that features of the post-quench kinetic energy evolution, such as disorder-induced heating and kinetic-energy oscillations, can be used to determine the plasma density and the electron temperature.

description: The connection between fundamental interactions acting in molecules in a fluid and macroscopically measured properties, such as the viscosity between colloidal particles coated with polymers, is studied here. The role that hydrodynamic and Brownian forces play in colloidal dispersions is also discussed. It is argued that many body systems in which all these interactions take place can be accurately solved using computational simulation tools. One of those modern tools is the technique known as dissipative particle dynamics, which incorporates Brownian and hydrodynamic forces, as well as basic conservative interactions. A case study is reported, as an example of the applications of this technique, which consists of the prediction of the viscosity and friction between two opposing parallel surfaces covered with polymer chains, under the influence of a steady flow. This work is intended to serve as an introduction to the subject of colloidal dispersions and computer simulations, for last year undergraduate students and beginning graduate students who are interested in beginning research in soft matter systems. To that end, a computational code is included that students can use right away to study complex fluids in equilibrium.

description: [abridged] We present an anisotropic analysis of the baryonic acoustic oscillation (BAO) scale in the twelfth and final data release of the Baryonic Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). We independently analyse the LOWZ and CMASS galaxy samples: the LOWZ sample contains contains 361 762 galaxies with an effective redshift of $z_{\rm LOWZ}=0.32$; the CMASS sample consists of 777 202 galaxies with an effective redshift of $z_{\rm CMASS}=0.57$. We extract the BAO peak position from the monopole power spectrum moment, $α_0$, and from the $μ^2$ moment, $α_2$, where $μ$ is the cosine of the angle to the line-of-sight. The $μ^2$-moment provides equivalent information to that available in the quadrupole but is simpler to analyse. After applying a reconstruction algorithm to reduce the BAO suppression by bulk motions, we measure the BAO peak position in the monopole and $μ^2$-moment, which are related to radial and angular shifts in scale. We report $H(z_{\rm LOWZ})r_s(z_d)=(11.60\pm0.60)\cdot10^3 {\rm km}s^{-1}$ and $D_A(z_{\rm LOWZ})/r_s(z_d)=6.66\pm0.16$ with a cross-correlation coefficient of $r_{HD_A}=0.41$, for the LOWZ sample; and $H(z_{\rm CMASS})r_s(z_d)=(14.56\pm0.37)\cdot10^3 {\rm km}s^{-1}$ and $D_A(z_{\rm CMASS})/r_s(z_d)=9.42\pm0.13$ with a cross-correlation coefficient of $r_{HD_A}=0.47$, for the CMASS sample. We combine these results with the measurements of the BAO peak position in the monopole and quadrupole correlation function of the same dataset \citep[][companion paper]{Cuestaetal2015} and report the consensus values: $H(z_{\rm LOWZ})r_s(z_d)=(11.63\pm0.69)\cdot10^3 {\rm km}s^{-1}$ and $D_A(z_{\rm LOWZ})/r_s(z_d)=6.67\pm0.15$ with $r_{HD_A}=0.35$ for the LOWZ sample; $H(z_{\rm CMASS})r_s(z_d)=(14.67\pm0.42)\cdot10^3 {\rm km}s^{-1}$ and $D_A(z_{\rm CMASS})/r_s(z_d)=9.47\pm0.12$ with $r_{HD_A}=0.52$ for the CMASS sample.

subject: ipres2018

description: This lightning talk will showcase the latest work from the Open Preservation Foundation. In June 2018 we launched our new strategy along with a refreshed vision, mission and values. The strategy sets out the long-term direction for the organisation, establishes the OPF’s position in the digital preservation landscape and guides the tasks, tools, and projects that the Foundation will address. We will briefly explain our concept of the OPF reference toolset. It is intended to show how OPF tools fit into a generic digital preservation workflow. We will introduce our new roadmaps for the open source tools under our stewardship including JHOVE and veraPDF, and explain how the community can help contribute to their development. We will also cover development highlights from our tools and projects including JHOVE error message work, veraPDF, EARK4ALL and the Preservation Action Registry.

description: A further development of a focusing monochromator concept for X-ray energy resolution of 0.1 meV and below is presented. Theoretical analysis of several optical layouts based on this concept was supported by numerical simulations performed in the "Synchrotron Radiation Workshop" software package using the physical-optics approach and careful modeling of partially-coherent synchrotron (undulator) radiation. Along with the energy resolution, the spectral shape of the energy resolution function was investigated. It was shown that under certain conditions the decay of the resolution function tails can be faster than that of the Gaussian function.

description: The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) are keen to engage with the digital preservation community for comment on their draft Web Publications standard (https://w3c.github.io/wpub/) – a possible parent specification for future EPUBs. They would like to ensure that this specification, and future Web Publications based on it, are well prepared for archival. The Digital Preservation Coalition and Open Preservation Foundation are collaborating together to run a small working group to review, discuss and provide feedback to W3C on this developing standard. This lightening talk will promote the DP community review work for this W3C standard with a view to engaging iPRES attendees to help contribute to the working group.

The Impact of Obesity Reversal on Breast Cancer-Promoting Chronic INflammation: The Role of Diet Type and Gut Microbiota
Creators: name: Shamsunder, Meghana
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Introduction: Obesity is growing epidemic and risk factor for the development of breast
cancer. Studies conducted to date have not shown a consistent relationship between
weight loss and the risk of cancer development however there has been an increasing
focus on calorie restriction diets and intermittent energy restriction diets and their impact
on breast cancer progression. We aimed to improve the understanding of how different
energy restriction diets affect obesity-associated, tumor-promoting inflammation in breast
cancer and the role of gut microbiota in this inflammation.
Methods: Female C57BL/6 mice were randomized onto control diet (n = 20) and diet
induced obesity diet (n = 80). At week 15, the diet induced obesity (DIO) group was
randomized to four different groups: mice that remained on DIO diet, a high-carb calorie
restriction diet, a low-carb calorie restriction diet, and an intermittent energy restriction
diet. At week 25, mice were injected with a mixture of E0771 cells. Three to four weeks
later, a final sacrifice was performed. Serum and tissue samples were collected and
analyzed to determine significant differences in body composition, tumor weight and
size, serum hormone and adipokine levels, and local mRNA expression of cytokines and
proteins.
Results: The obese group had significantly greater body weight, visceral white adipose
tissue, and more severe tumor outcomes than the Control and the calorie restriction
groups (High Carb Calorie Restriction, Low Carb Calorie Restriction, and Intermittent
Energy Restriction). Additionally, the obese group had significant dysfunctional changes
in serum hormones and adipokines and greater expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines
than anti-inflammatory cytokine. The calorie restriction groups reversed this. Lastly, the
obese group presented with a more permeable gut epithelium and lower expression of
colonic occludin that maintains gut impermeability. This led to increased serum
lipopolysaccharides in the obese group. There was little to no reversal of these changes in
the calorie restriction groups.
Conclusion: Obesity induced significant systemic and local changes in the mice that
resulted in more severe tumors. The calorie restriction diets were able to reverse these
changes (except for changes in the gut epithelium and serum lipopolysaccharide levels)
and had less severe mammary tumors.

212.10 LT22 Quality control for disc images of computer-based art
Creators: name: Farbowitz, Jonathan
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: ad hoc
subject: Ad Hoc: Lightning Talks
subject: ipres2018

description: This presentation will focus on a specific area of research within the Guggenheim’s ongoing initiative to Conserve Computer-based Art (CCBA), exploring the concept of Quality Control (QC) procedures for disk images. Through the CCBA initiative, Guggenheim conservation staff have created disk images from artist-provided computers as an important step in the preservation of complex software-based artworks. In the context of art conservation, preservation elements, such as a disk images, must be evaluated for their ability to reproduce the significant properties of the original artwork (such as speed, color, and other programmed behaviors) in the future. While verification procedures can ensure that a disk image is an exact copy of a piece of physical media, they cannot determine if the image can be used to run the software-based artwork in a virtual machine or emulator, or document the steps necessary to re-run the artwork in these programs. QC procedures are needed to ensure that preservation elements like disk images are capable of recreating an authentic experience of the artwork. The presentation will cover the Guggenheim’s proposed QC procedures for ensuring that the disk images being created are useful for future preservation purposes, including attempting to run the disk image in an emulator or virtual machine. In the context of the museum’s participation in the Software Preservation Network’s Fostering a Community of Practice project, the Guggenheim is exploring the relationship between hardware and software metadata and emulation. The presentation will describe how the QC procedure is shaped by the metadata collected about the hardware and software environment of a computer running a software-based artwork, and how the quality of the metadata collected affects the QC process and the future accessibility of the work.
