Shrunken Heads: The Humanities Under the Corporate Model

description: Everyone who has been paying attention knows that the humanities, once the heart of the university, have been devalued in the United States.  Thus, they are often the first victims of downsizing, tight budgets, or profit-driven schemes.  The humanities can serve as a kind of mine canary: when poison gas builds up in academia, they are usually the first to feel its effects, but the other disciplines won't be far behind.  When the humanities are handicapped and threatened by the corporate agenda, the whole academic endeavor as we know it is at risk.

Entangled states in quantum cosmology and the interpretation of Lambda

description: The cosmological constant $Λ$ can be achieved as the result of entangled and statistically correlated minisuperspace cosmological states, built up by using a minimal choice of observable quantities, i.e. $Ω_{m}$ and $Ω_{k}$, which assign the cosmic dynamics. In particular, we consider a cosmological model where two regions, corresponding to two correlated eras, are involved; the present universe description would be, in this way, given by a density matrix $\hat ρ$, corresponding to an entangled final state. Starting from this assumption, it is possible to infer some considerations on the cosmic thermodynamics by evaluating the Von Neumann entropy. The correlation between different regions by the entanglement phenomenon results in the existence of $Λ$ (in particular $Ω_Λ$) which could be interpreted in the framework of the recent astrophysical observations. As a byproduct, this approach could provide a natural way to solve the so called coincidence problem.

Human pose and stride length estimation
Creators: name: Hedlin, Eric
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: In this thesis, we develop Computer Vision methods for Human body pose and stride length estimation. We first describe a framework for estimating the stride length of a walking subject from video using a multi-view camera setup. We specifically look into its utility in diagnosing Parkinson's disease. We do this using per frame 3D pose estimates and using an analysis of foot movement, we determine the length of the stride. Parkinson's diagnosis partly relies on stride length information; we claim that our method can be helpful in diagnosis. The current practice in the medical field is to estimate stride with complicated and fundamentally flawed sensors as they tend to affect the gait of the subjects using them. A benefit of our method is that cameras are relatively cheap, easily obtainable, and only need to be set up once. We also describe work done in improving the state of the art in human pose estimation. We first propose a pose refinement method that enhances state-of-the-art methods. Through analysis of our refiner, we show a flaw inherent in the human body model---the inaccuracy in the typical shape-to-pose regressor (joint regressor)---for a standard human pose dataset and show that the results on the top methods are actually being underreported. This flaw results in a situation where the ground truth joints are unsatisfiable with biologically plausible poses. We then address this flaw by modifying a part of the human body model. We reevaluate top state-of-the-art methods and show these models perform better with this modification without retraining.

Evolution of the excited electron bubble in liquid 4He and the appearance of fission-like processes

Subjects: subject: Other Condensed Matter (cond-mat.other)

description: We have studied the evolution of an excited electron bubble in superfluid 4He for several tens of picoseconds combining the dynamics of the liquid with an adiabatic evolution for the electron. The path followed by the excited bubble in its decay to the ground state is shown to strongly depend on pressure. While for pressures below 1 bar the 1P excited electron bubble has allowance for radiatively decay to the deformed ground state, evolving then non-radiatively towards the ground state of the spherical electron bubble, we have found that above 1 bar two distinct baby bubbles appear in the course of the dynamical evolution, pointing to a different relaxation path in which the electron may be localized in one of the baby bubbles while the other collapses, allowing for a pure radiationless de-excitation. Our calculations are in agreement with experiments indicating that relaxed 1P bubbles are only observed for pressures smaller than a critical one, of the order of 1 bar, and that above this value the decay of the excited bubble has to proceed differently. A similar analysis carried out for the 2P bubble shows that the adiabatic approximation fails at an early stage of its dynamical evolution due to the crossing of the 2P and 1F states.

description: We present radio and X-ray observations, as well as optical light curves, for a subset of 26 BL Lac candidates from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) lacking strong radio emission and with z<2.2. Half of these 26 objects are shown to be stars, galaxies, or absorbed quasars. We conclude that the other 13 objects are Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with abnormally weak emission features; ten of those 13 are definitively radio-quiet, and, for those with available optical light curves, their level of optical flux variability is consistent with radio-quiet quasars. We cannot exclude the possibility that some of these 13 AGN lie on the extremely radio-faint tail of the BL Lac distribution, but our study generally supports the notion that all BL Lac objects are radio-loud. These radio-quiet AGN appear to have intrinsically weak or absent broad emission line regions, and, based on their X-ray properties, we argue that some are low-redshift analogs to weak line quasars (WLQs). SDSS BL Lac searches are so far the only systematic surveys of the SDSS database capable of recovering such exotic low-redshift WLQs. There are 71 more z<2.2 radio-quiet BL Lac candidates already identified in the SDSS not considered here, and many of those might be best unified with WLQs as well. Future studies combining low- and high-redshift WLQ samples will yield new insight on our understanding of the structure and formation of AGN broad emission line regions.

Fixed point merger in the SU(N) gauge beta functions

description: We discuss qualitative behavior of the SU(N) gauge beta functions in QCD with many massless flavors. Non-perturbative beta functions can be obtained by extracting the renormalized trajectories in the exact renormalization group framework. We examine the renormalization group equations for the general four-fermi couplings as well as the gauge coupling obtained in a simple approximation scheme. It is shown that the gauge beta function possesses not only an IR but also a UV fixed point in the conformal window. These fixed points merge with each other and disappear at the edge of the conformal window. The scaling dimensions of the quark mass operator at the fixed points are also shown.

Migliorare le competenze ortografiche grazie all’ausilio di sfondi motivazionali: creiamo un albo illustrato di classe

Publisher: name: Scuola Universitaria della Svizzera Italiana (SUPSI)
Year: 2018

description: L’ortografia è una parte della scrittura che non sempre appare coinvolgente agli occhi dei bambini. Il lavoro del docente diventa dunque quello di trovare la chiave affinché questi ultimi siano stimolati e resi attenti al mondo della scrittura. Il lavoro proposto mira a due sfondi motivazionali principali, il primo è un percorso di “risanamento” denominato “L’ospedale delle parole”, il secondo è invece l’applicazione pratica di quanto studiato nei mesi precedenti, e cioè la creazione di un albo illustrato a puntate tra classi. Il bambino, grazie a questo tema, viene catapultato nel mondo dello scrittore, scenario nel quale deve inventare, redigere e verificare la validità e la qualità dello scritto. Le competenze ortografiche vengono così sollecitate di continuo, senza che neppure lo studente se ne renda conto. La creazione dell’albo illustrato viene infine valorizzata, elemento fondamentale per la buona riuscita di un percorso: esso viene infatti stampato per ogni bambino e successivamente messo in vendita in una bancarella creata dagli allievi.

description: Variation of magnetocaloric (MC) effects has been systematically investigated for colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganites R0.6Sr0.4MnO3 (R=La-Gd). As the one-electron bandwidth is reduced, the temperature profile of MC effect, i.e., field-induced entropy change, exhibits a steeper drop below the ferromagnetic transition temperature due to its first-order nature promoted by a competing charge-orbital ordering instability. For these small-bandwidth systems adjacent to the metal-insulator phase boundary, a rectangular-shaped profile for the entropy change emerges with an anomalously wide temperature range and a considerable magnitude. Model calculations have indicated that the fluctuation enhanced in the phase-competing region has a strong impact on such MC features, which can be extensively controlled by the chemical composition.

Visualizing multi-level structures in data
Creators: name: Liu, Zipeng
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Visualization is an important tool to analyze data, but there emerge various challenges from complex analytical data and tasks. In this dissertation, I present four projects that were motivated by these challenges, situated in the nested model proposed by Munzner, which consists of four layers to describe the components in visualization: domain, data and task, encoding design, and algorithm. In ADVIEW, to address the challenges of comparing many phylogenetic trees in the domain of biology, I propose a visual encoding to compress a tree representation, design and implement a multi-view interactive tool to handle the multiple levels of detail in a tree collection dataset, ranging from the whole collection, through subsets of trees, individual trees, subtrees, to leaf nodes. In SPRAWLTER, to address the existing visual encoding problems of readability metrics for node-link graphs, I propose two novel metrics to measure a finer-grained clutter and to balance the geometric sparseness and clutter. These metrics recognize different levels of visual saliency such as metanodes and leaf nodes in multi-level graphs. In LOGSEG, to fulfill user demands for chunking actions in the domain of image editing software, I propose a segmentation model for the action logs to serve the demands that require different chunking granularities. For example, smart undo for going back to a previous user task needs a low-level chunking, while managing an overview of milestones needs a high-level one. In CORGIE, to fill the gap in visual qualitative evaluation of graph neural networks (GNNs) in the domain of machine learning, I propose an approach and design a tool to explore correspondences between a graph and its embedding to check how different levels of structures are preserved from the input graph to the output embedding. I also design a new graph layout to reveal how a GNN leverages node neighbors and computes an embedding. I identify a common theme among these projects: multi-level structures. They consist of nesting subsets of data points that are relevant to the analytical tasks. I demonstrate how to exploit them in the visualization if provided in hierarchical data, or to compute them for non-hierarchical data.

description: (abridged) We report a study of the relation between dust and gas over a 100deg^2 area in the Taurus molecular cloud. We compare the H2 column density derived from dust extinction with the CO column density derived from the 12CO and 13CO J= 1-0 lines. We derive the visual extinction from reddening determined from 2MASS data. The comparison is done at an angular size of 200", corresponding to 0.14pc at a distance of 140pc. We find that the relation between visual extinction Av and N(CO) is linear between Av~3 and 10 mag in the region associated with the B213--L1495 filament. In other regions the linear relation is flattened for Av > 4 mag. We find that the presence of temperature gradients in the molecular gas affects the determination of N(CO) by ~30--70% with the largest difference occurring at large column densities. Adding a correction for this effect and accounting for the observed relation between the column density of CO and CO2 ices and Av, we find a linear relationship between the column of carbon monoxide and dust for observed visual extinctions up to the maximum value in our data 23mag. We have used these data to study a sample of dense cores in Taurus. Fitting an analytical column density profile to these cores we derive an average volume density of about 1.4e4 cm^-3 and a CO depletion age of about 4.2e5 years. We estimate the H2 mass of Taurus to be about 1.5e4 M_sun, independently derived from the Av and N(CO) maps. We derive a CO integrated intensity to H2 conversion factor of about 2.1e20 cm^-2 (K km/s)^-1, which applies even in the region where the [CO]/[H_2] ratio is reduced by up to two orders of magnitude. The distribution of column densities in our Taurus maps resembles a log--normal function but shows tails at large and low column densities.

description: This paper introduces a new method for proving global stability of fluid flows through the construction of Lyapunov functionals. For finite dimensional approximations of fluid systems, we show how one can exploit recently developed optimization methods based on sum-of-squares decomposition to construct a polynomial Lyapunov function. We then show how these methods can be extended to infinite dimensional Navier-Stokes systems using robust optimization techniques. Crucially, this extension requires only the solution of infinite-dimensional linear eigenvalue problems and finite-dimensional sum-of-squares optimization problems. We further show that subject to minor technical constraints, a general polynomial Lyapunov function is always guaranteed to provide better results than the classical energy methods in determining a lower-bound on the maximum Reynolds number for which a flow is globally stable, if the flow does remain globally stable for Reynolds numbers at least slightly beyond the energy stability limit. Such polynomial functions can be searched for efficiently using the SOS technique we propose.

Use of the fluorescent probe LAURDAN to label and measure inner membrane fluidity of endospores of Clostridium spp.

A method for measuring the fluidity of inner membranes of populations of endospores of Clostridium spp. with a fluorescent dye was developed. Cells of Clostridium beijerinckii ATCC 8260 and Clostridium sporogenes ATCC 7955 were allowed to sporulate in the presence of 6-dodecanoyl-2-dimethylaminonaphthalene (LAURDAN) on a soil-based media. Labeling of endospores with LAURDAN did not affect endospore viability. Removal of the outer membranes of endospores was done using a chemical treatment and confirmed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Two-photon confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and generalized polarization (GP) measurements were used to assess fluorescence of endospores. Lipid composition analysis of cells and endospores was done to determine whether differences in GP values are attributable to differences in membrane composition. Removal of the outer membranes of endospores did not significantly impact GP values. Decoated, labeled endospores of C. sporogenes ATCC 7955 and C. beijerinckii ATCC 8260 exhibited GP values of 0.77±0.031 and 0.74±0.027 respectively. Differences in ratios of fatty acids between cells and endospores are unlikely to be responsible for high GP values observed in endospores. These GP values indicate high levels of lipid order and the exclusion of water from within inner membranes of endospores.

description: The situational analysis lies in the basis of space and ground-based experiment planning. It is connected with the use of complex computation models of environment and with verification of the restricting conditions, due to the character of the conducted experiments and the solved scientific tasks. The present work proposes a formulation of the situational analysis on the basis of the finite abstract automata theory. On this basis, optimization of the situational analysis is suggested by formal schemes for adaptation to the conditions of the model environment. The efficiency enhancement is illustrated by results from the application of the proposed real-time optimization for photometric system control.

description: Circumstellar disks are an essential ingredient of the formation of low-mass stars. It is unclear, however, whether the accretion-disk paradigm can also account for the formation of stars more massive than about 10 solar masses, in which strong radiation pressure might halt mass infall. Massive stars may form by stellar merging, although more recent theoretical investigations suggest that the radiative-pressure limit may be overcome by considering more complex, nonspherical infall geometries. Clear observational evidence, such as the detection of compact dusty disks around massive young stellar objects, is needed to identify unambiguously the formation mode of the most massive stars. Here we report near-infrared interferometric observations that spatially resolve the astronomical unit-scale distribution of hot material around a high-mass (approx. 20 solar masses) young stellar object. The image shows an elongated structure with a size of about 13 x 19 astronomical units, consistent with a disk seen at an inclination angle of 45 degree. Using geometric and detailed physical models, we found a radial temperature gradient in the disk, with a dust-free region less than 9.5 astronomical units from the star, qualitatively and quantitatively similar to the disks observed in low-mass star formation. Perpendicular to the disk plane we observed a molecular outflow and two bow shocks, indicating that a bipolar outflow emanates from the inner regions of the system.

title: Evaluating the effectiveness of spaced practice using computer-assisted language learning (CALL) in teaching and learning English vocabulary in the classroom: the case of Oman
Creators: name: Muqaibal, Muna Hussain
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2020

description: This study aimed to investigate the impact of time distribution (i.e. spacing between practice sessions; intensive versus spaced) on vocabulary learning and retention in low-ability learners of L2 English using a Computer-assisted Language Learning tool (Quizlet), applied in actual practice at an Omani College of Technology. It also explored teachers’ and students’ perceptions of the use and implementation of Quizlet, in terms of its perceived ease of use (PEOU), perceived usefulness (PU) and behavioural intention (BI). A quasi-experimental design was adopted. The sample was drawn from six intact Level 1 classes from the English Language Center (ELC) at the College, comprising four teachers and 96 students. Students were allocated to three groups: intensive (1 day between practice sessions); spaced (7 days between practice sessions); and a test-only control group. The Experimental Groups (Intensive and Spaced) received four practice sessions (of 20 minutes each) to rehearse the target words. Baseline tests (the 2,000-5,000 vocabulary level test, a background questionnaire and working memory test) and three performance tests (pre-, immediate post- and delayed post-tests) were completed by all three groups. To investigate the participants’ perceptions of using Quizlet, interviews were conducted with the teachers, and the questionnaire was administered to students from both Experimental Groups. Both Experimental Groups demonstrated significant improvement in the immediate post-test, which they maintained in the delayed post-tests. Both groups scored significantly higher than the Control Group, who did not demonstrate any change over the three performance tests. Moreover, no significant differences were found between the Experimental Groups. Therefore, the findings suggest that there is no optimal spacing for better retention. In addition, both the teachers and students generally considered Quizlet to be easy to use and beneficial for vocabulary learning and expressed their willingness to use it in future.

description: It is by the long established fact in experiment and theory that electromagnetic waves, here as one component of an IED particle, passing a double slit will undergo self inference each, producing at a detector plane fringed intensities. The wave generating point charge of a zero rest mass, as the other component of the particle, is maintained a constant energy and speed by a repeated radiation reabsorption/reemission scheme, and in turn steered in direction in its linear motion by the reflected radiation field, and will thereby travel to the detector along (one of) the optical path(s) of the waves leading to a bright interference fringe. We elucidate the process formally based on first principles solutions for the IED particle and known principles for wave-matter interaction.

description: We present the results of a Spitzer photometric investigation into the IR excesses of close binary systems. In a sample of 10 objects, excesses in IRAC and MIPS24 bands implying the presence of warm dust are found for 3. For 2 objects we do not find excesses reported in earlier IRAS studies. We discuss the results in the context of the scenario suggested by Rhee and co-workers, in which warm dust is continuously created by destructive collisions between planetary bodies. A simple numerical model for the steady-state distribution of dust in one IR excess system shows a central clearing of radius 0.22 AU caused by dynamical perturbations from the binary star. This is consistent with the size of the central clearing derived from the Spitzer spectral energy distribution. We conclude that close binaries could be efficient "destroyers of worlds", lead to destabilize the orbits of their planetary progeny by magnetically-driven angular momentum loss and secular shrinkage of the binary separation.
