description: Automatic Static Analysis Tools (ASATs) are widely used by software developers to diffuse and enforce coding practices. Yet, we know little about the documentation of ASATs, despite it being critical to learn about the coding practices in the first place. We shed light on this through several contributions. First, we analyze the documentation of more than 100 rules of 16 ASATs for multiple programming languages, and distill a taxonomy of the purposes of the documentation-What triggers a rule; Why it is important; and how to Fix an issue-and its types of contents. Then, we conduct a survey to assess the effectiveness of the documentation in terms of its goals and types of content. We highlight opportunities for improvement in ASAT documentation. In particular, we find that the Why purpose is missing in half of the rules we survey; moreover, when the Why is present, it is more likely to have quality issues than the What and the Fix.

description: A unified model is developed within the context of the braneworld paradigm, where a single scalar field can act as both the inflaton field in the very early universe and also as strong, self-interacting dark matter in the post-inflationary universe. Reheating proceeds due to the overproduction and subsequent evaporation of primordial black holes. Observational constraints, most notably from gravitational waves, are satisfied if the probability of PBH formation is sufficiently high.

Implementation of Recommendation Algorithm based on Recommendation Sessions in E-commerce IT System
Creators: name: Malinowski, Michał
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Information Retrieval (cs.IR)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper presents a study on the implementation of the author's Algorithm of Recommendation Sessions (ARS) in an operational e-commerce information system and analyses the basic parameters of the resulting recommendation system. It begins with a synthetic overview of recommendation systems, followed by a presentation of the proprietary ARS algorithm, which is based on recommendation sessions. A mathematical model of the recommendation session, constructed using graph and network theory, serves as the input for the ARS algorithm. This paper also explores graph structure representation methods and the implementation of a G graph (representing a set of recommendation sessions) in a relational database using the SQL standard. The ARS algorithm was implemented in a working e-commerce information system, leading to the development of a fully functional recommendation system adaptable to various e-commerce IT systems. The effectiveness of the algorithm is demonstrated by research on the recommendation system's parameters presented in the final section of the paper.

description: Memories in neural system are shaped through the interplay of neural and learning dynamics under external inputs. By introducing a simple local learning rule to a neural network, we found that the memory capacity is drastically increased by sequentially repeating the learning steps of input-output mappings. The origin of this enhancement is attributed to the generation of a Psuedo-inverse correlation in the connectivity. This is associated with the emergence of spontaneous activity that intermittently exhibits neural patterns corresponding to embedded memories. Stablization of memories is achieved by a distinct bifurcation from the spontaneous activity under the application of each input.

description: In star forming regions in our own Galaxy, the 14N/15N ratio is found to vary from $\sim$ 100 in meteorites, comets and protoplanetary disks up to $\sim$ 1000 in pre-stellar and star forming cores, while in external galaxies the very few single-dish large scale measurements of this ratio lead to values of 100-450. The extent of the contribution of isotopic fractionation to these variations is, to date, unknown. In this paper we present a theoretical chemical study of nitrogen fractionation in external galaxies in order to determine the physical conditions that may lead to a spread of the 14N/15N ratio from the solar value of $\sim$440 and hence evaluate the contribution of chemical reactions in the ISM to nitrogen fractionation. We find that the main cause of ISM enrichment of nitrogen fractionation is high gas densities, aided by high fluxes of cosmic rays.

description: The "metaverse", wherein users can enter virtual worlds to work, study, play, shop, socialize, and entertain, is fast becoming a reality, attracting billions of dollars in investment from companies such as Meta, Microsoft, and Clipo Labs. Further, virtual reality (VR) headsets from entities like Oculus, HTC, and Microsoft are rapidly maturing to provide fully immersive experiences to metaverse users. However, little is known about the network dynamics of metaverse VR applications in terms of service domains, flow counts, traffic rates and volumes, content location and latency, etc., which are needed to make telecommunications network infrastructure "metaverse ready". This paper is an empirical measurement study of metaverse VR network behavior aimed at helping telecommunications network operators better provision and manage the network to ensure good user experience. Using illustrative hour-long network traces of metaverse sessions on the Oculus VR headset, we first develop a categorization of user activity into distinct states ranging from login home to streetwalking and event attendance to asset trading, and undertake a detailed analysis of network traffic per state, identifying unique service domains, protocols, flow profiles, and volumetric patterns, thereby highlighting the vastly more complex nature of a metaverse session compared to streaming video or gaming. Armed with the network behavioral profiles, our second contribution develops a real-time method MetaVRadar to detect metaverse session and classify the user activity state leveraging formalized flow signatures and volumetric attributes. Our third contribution practically implements MetaVRadar, evaluates its accuracy in our lab environment, and demonstrates its usability in a large university network so operators can better monitor and plan resources to support requisite metaverse user experience.

Randomized Row and Column Iterative Methods with a Quantum Computer

description: We consider the quantum implementations of the two classical iterative solvers for a system of linear equations, including the Kaczmarz method which uses a row of coefficient matrix in each iteration step, and the coordinate descent method which utilizes a column instead. These two methods are widely applied in big data science due to their very simple iteration schemes. In this paper we use the block-encoding technique and propose fast quantum implementations for these two approaches, under the assumption that the quantum states of each row or each column can be efficiently prepared. The quantum algorithms achieve exponential speed up at the problem size over the classical versions, meanwhile their complexity is nearly linear at the number of steps.
Estimation procedures for repeated surveys

Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1983
Subjects: subject: Estimation theory
subject: Sampling (Statistics)

description: The aim of this thesis is to examine the methods of estimation that have been developed for use in sample surveys repeated at regular intervals, with particular emphasis on the time series methods that have recently been proposed. The practice of surveying a population at regular intervals, to provide timely estimates of characteristics changing over time and the effects of changing conditions, have been of interest throughout the relatively short history of the sample survey method. As long ago as 1942, Jessen showed that by retaining the same sample units from one survey to the next, an improved population estimate could be derived, the gain in efficiency being due to the correlation evident between responses obtained from the same individual unit on different occasions. This idea led to the wider use of overlapping samples in repeated surveys and the development of more general estimates to make efficient use of the overlapping design. While the correlation between responses given by individual units in the population was accepted and used, the population characteristic being estimated was assumed to be a fixed value. Any correlation between them over time is then ignored. This rather anamolous situation was pointed out by Blight and Scott (1973) and estimation procedures have since been developed which incorporate the stochastic properties of the population characteristic into the estimates.

Subjects: subject: Banjarese language Verb

description: Banjarese is a language spoken by an ethnic group ca 11 ed Banjar. They live along the coast of south, south-east, and in the interior of South Kalimantan (Borneo), Indonesia. Banjarese belongs to the Western Austronesian 1 anguage family. This 1 anguage is bordering with languages such as Ngaju to the west, Maanyan and Lawangan to the north and north-west, Bajau to the south-east, and Sampit to the south-west. Because of close cultural and trade relations between Banjarese people and the speakers of those languages, Banjarese spread into these different language areas. Particularly in the towns and cities in these areas, Banjarese is spoken as a lingua franca between people speaking different languages, for example, between the speakers of Banjarese and Ngaju, or speakers of Maan ya n and Ngaju. Before World War II Banjarese people were reknowned for their patterns of migration. A great number of Banj arese peop 1 e migrated to East Kalimantan. Not surprisingly in this area Banjarese is also spoken as a language for communication. A group of Banjarese emigrated as far as Sapat and Tembilahan in Riau, Sumatera. In these pl aces they formed pockets of Banjarese speakers amongst Riau Malay speakers.

description: This thesis addresses the problem of model reduction for scalar linear time-invariant systems via the use of the optimal Hankel-norm approximation problem. Frequency weighting is combined with optimality in the Hankel norm to obtain a frequency shaped approximation to a given linear system. This is accomplished by the solution of a modified optimal Hankel-norm approximation problem. Also presented is an error analysis for the frequency shaped approximation.

description: Spin-orbit coupling enables charge currents to give rise to spin currents and vice versa, which has applications in non-volatile magnetic memories, miniature microwave oscillators, thermoelectric converters and Terahertz devices. In the past two decades, a considerable amount of research has focused on electrical spin current generation in different types of nonmagnetic materials. However, electrical spin current generation in ferromagnetic materials has only recently been actively investigated. Due to the additional symmetry breaking by the magnetization, ferromagnetic materials generate spin currents with different orientations of spin direction from those observed in nonmagnetic materials. Studies centered on ferromagnets where spin-orbit coupling plays an important role in transport open new possibilities to generate and detect spin currents. We summarize recent developments on this subject and discuss unanswered questions in this emerging field.

description: Activation of naive CD8 T-cells can lead to the generation of multiple effector and memory subsets. Multiple parameters associated with activation conditions are involved in generating this diversity that is associated with heterogeneous molecular contents of activated cells. Although naive cell polarisation upon antigenic stimulation and the resulting asymmetric division are known to be a major source of heterogeneity and cell fate regulation, the consequences of stochastic uneven partitioning of molecular content upon subsequent divisions remain unclear yet. Here we aim at studying the impact of uneven partitioning on molecular-content heterogeneity and then on the immune response dynamics at the cellular level. To do so, we introduce a multiscale mathematical model of the CD8 T-cell immune response in the lymph node. In the model, cells are described as agents evolving and interacting in a 2D environment while a set of differential equations, embedded in each cell, models the regulation of intra and extracellular proteins involved in cell differentiation. Based on the analysis of in silico data at the single cell level, we 1 show that immune response dynamics can be explained by the molecular-content heterogeneity generated by uneven partitioning at cell division. In particular, uneven partitioning acts as a regulator of cell differentiation and induces the emergence of two coexisting sub-populations of cells exhibiting antagonistic fates. We show that the degree of unevenness of molecular partitioning, along all cell divisions, affects the outcome of the immune response and can promote the generation of memory cells.

A study of the Buddhapalita-Mulamadhyamaka-vrtti
Creators: name: Saito, Akira
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1984

description: This thesis is a study of the Buddhapalita-mulamadhyamaka-vrtti (BP). It aims at clarifing Buddhapalita's interpretation of the Mlllamadhyamaka­ karika-s and his characteristic method of explanation in comparison with other commentators. The present work is divided into two parts. After a brief Introduction (pp.ix-xxx), which outlines the BP and also discusse some of its main problems, the major portion of Part I is devoted to an annotated English translation (pp.1-285)of the Tibetan text of the BP. The Notes to English translation, which covers chapters one to sixteen, are collectively placed after p.219. Two related problems have drawn my special interest: that is, the textual question of the Mulamadhyamaka-karika-s cited in the commentaries, and the different interpretations of a karika amongst the commentators. In the Notes those instances are treated with considerable detail when necessary. The list of abbreviations and works, which are referred to in this thesis, follows the Notes (pp.286-292). Part II contains the entire Tibetan text of the BP (pp.1-375)based upon the four canonical block prints [PNDC]of bsTan hgyur. The fundamental principle of my critical edition is that the reading of sDe dge edition should be adopted in the text unless it is proved wrong. However, if another reading is preferable for one or more reasons, it is marked with an asterisk in the footnote. The English translation follows the preferred reading.

A Marxist reappraisal of Australian capitalism : the rise of Anglo-Colonial finance capital in New South Wales and Victoria, 1830-1890

Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1985
Subjects: subject: Capitalism HistoryAustralia

description: This thesis investigates aspects of the formation and evolution of capitalism in colonial New South Wales. Four principal themes are addressed throughout the discussion: first, the role of British imperialism in establishing and shaping colonial capitalism; second, the role of the British and colonial states in expanding commodity relations; third, the dominant areas and agents involved in capital accumulation, and last, the nature of the class relations and property connections that underpinned these processes. The structure and dynamics of class relations, especially the relations of production, are both the premise and conclusion of this study. The approach adopted to realise these objects is both theoretical and empirical. The study proceeds through three major parts. The first part is a critical investigation of the historiography pertinent to my principal themes and the specification of the problems discussed in the subsequent parts. Here, the rudiments of marxist historiography are introduced and a sustained critical discussion of Australian economic historiography is presented. By the close of Part One, the approach to be pursued, the themes to be investigated, the departures from non-marxist historiography and the sequence of empirical analyses are made explicit. Part Two of the thesis is concerned with the formation of colonial capitalism. Capitalism depends on the commodification of economic relations: thus this process of commodification is examined in the context of the land, labour and capital markets. Because the initial process of securing capitalist relations of production is as much political as economic, and consequently as much imperial as colonial, the forms of political or state power are discussed. The dominant relations of production before 1860 are defined as ascendant, though contradictory, Anglo-colonial merchant capital. Part Three investigates three dimensions of colonial capitalist development. These investigations pre-suppose the dominance of commodity relations and pursue their intensification and expansion into colonial landed property, the transformation of colonial pastoralism and the forms and directions of public economic activity. In all these cases the focus remains on the four major themes identified above. Part Three closes with an analysis of dominant class relations, a demonstration of the fundamental argument advanced throughout the thesis concerning the prominence that should be given to Anglo-colonial finance capital. Between 1860 and 1890 the major economic relations and class structure were shaped by Anglo-colonial finance capital. The thesis concludes with an assessment of the implications of this study for Australian historiography, including marxist historiography, and indicates possible directions for future investigations.

description: For the hierarchical Poisson and gamma model, we calculate the Bayes posterior estimator of the parameter of the Poisson distribution under Stein's loss function which penalizes gross overestimation and gross underestimation equally and the corresponding Posterior Expected Stein's Loss (PESL). We also obtain the Bayes posterior estimator of the parameter under the squared error loss and the corresponding PESL. Moreover, we obtain the empirical Bayes estimators of the parameter of the Poisson distribution with a conjugate gamma prior by two methods. In numerical simulations, we have illustrated: The two inequalities of the Bayes posterior estimators and the PESLs; the moment estimators and the Maximum Likelihood Estimators (MLEs) are consistent estimators of the hyperparameters; the goodness-of-fit of the model to the simulated data. The numerical results indicate that the MLEs are better than the moment estimators when estimating the hyperparameters. Finally, we exploit the attendance data on 314 high school juniors from two urban high schools to illustrate our theoretical studies.

description: A simple agent-based model (ABM) of the evolution of faith-based systems (FBS) in human social networks is presented. In the model, each agent subscribes to a single FBS, and may be converted to share a different agent's FBS during social interactions. FBSs and agents each possess heritable quantitative traits that affect the probability of transmission of FBSs. The influence of social network conditions on the intermediate and final macroscopic states is examined.

description: Understanding politics is challenging because the politics take the influence from everything. Even we limit ourselves to the political context in the legislative processes; we need a better understanding of latent factors, such as legislators, bills, their ideal points, and their relations. From the modeling perspective, this is difficult 1) because these observations lie in a high dimension that requires learning on low dimensional representations, and 2) because these observations require complex probabilistic modeling with latent variables to reflect the causalities. This paper presents a new model to reflect and understand this political setting, NIPEN, including factors mentioned above in the legislation. We propose two versions of NIPEN: one is a hybrid model of deep learning and probabilistic graphical model, and the other model is a neural tensor model. Our result indicates that NIPEN successfully learns the manifold of the legislative bill texts, and NIPEN utilizes the learned low-dimensional latent variables to increase the prediction performance of legislators' votings. Additionally, by virtue of being a domain-rich probabilistic model, NIPEN shows the hidden strength of the legislators' trust network and their various characteristics on casting votes.

description: Artificially constructed earth mounds are found in a number of areas in Austalia and are associated with wetlands and localities which have a high rainfall and poorly drained soils. Sites range in size from 3m to 100m in diameter and 0.2 to 3 m in height. Previous work suggested that mounds first appeared during the mid to late Holocene. Some authors (e.g. Lourandos 1983: 85-87) see the introduction of mounds as linked to an increase in production in prehistoric economies, or 'intensification'. My Ph.D research comprised a detailed study of mounds in one region, southwestern Victoria. Ethnographic accounts note that mounds here were used for a variety of purposes, including ovens, general camping areas and as foundations for substantial huts. Archaeological work, including survey, excavation, and geochemical and magnetic sampling of sediments, shewed that mounds were used for the above purposes in the prehistoric past. The study confirmed that mounds appear relatively late in the prehistoric sequence, after 2500 yBP. All but one site first appeared after 2000 yBP. This is well after the introduction of certain technological changes such as the 'Australian small tool tradition', which probably entered the region between 4 to 5000 years ago. The appearance of mounds does not appear to be linked with this technological change and mounds instead seem to be part of a sequence of generalised changes in site types and numbers first appearing in the region about 2500 years ago. My research suggests that these changes reflected shifts in a number of aspects of prehistoric societies, including changes in the organisation of camps and the use of labour,and a shift to a more long-term occupation of settlements. At present there is too little information to determine whether only one prime mover was involved. Some authors (e.g. Beaton 1983) maintain that 'population pressure' was the major prime mover, while others (e.g. Lourandos 1983, 1984) argue that changes were caused by shifts in alliance networks, leading to 'intensification'. I believe that both these factors were probably involved and that an environmental shift to a wetter climate about 2000 years ago, also contributed to these changes.
Theory of three-pulse photon echo spectroscopy with dual frequency combs

description: A theoretical analysis is carried out for the recently developed three-pulse photon echo spectroscopy employing dual frequency combs (DFC) as the light sources. In this method, the molecular sample interacts with three pulse trains derived from the DFC and the generated third-order signal is displayed as a two-dimensional (2D) spectrum that depends on the waiting time introduced by employing asynchronous optical sampling method. Through the analysis of the heterodyne-detected signal interferogram using a local oscillator derived from one of the optical frequency combs, we show that the 2D spectrum closely matches the spectrum expected from a conventional approach with four pulses derived from a single femtosecond laser pulse and the waiting time between the second and third field-matter interactions is given by the down-converted detection time of the interferogram. The theoretical result is applied to a two-level model system with solvation effect described by solvatochromic spectral density. The model 2D spectrum reproduces spectral features such as the loss of frequency correlation, dephasing, and spectral shift as a function of the population time. We anticipate that the present theory will be the general framework for quantitative descriptions of DFC-based nonlinear optical spectroscopy.

Freezing of the flux liquid in high temperature superconductors
Creators: name: Jackson, Damian Justin Charles
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: High temperature superconductors
subject: Magnetic flux
subject: Freezing points

description: The work presented in this thesis is concerned with examining the freezing transition of the magnetic flux lines, and the effect of this transition on the critical current. It is believed that in the region of low magnetic field the freezing line corresponds well with the so called irreversible line that appears in the H -T phase diagram of the HTcS materials. This therefore provides a useful reference to compare the results of this approach. Chapter 1 presents a general introduction to the phenomenon of superconductivity of both the conventional and high temperature superconductors. It is argued that many of the more important properties of the HTcS materials, such as the critical current, are heavily dependent on the interactions of the flux lines, and therefore the real world usefulness of these materials relies on a good understanding of their properties. In Chapter 2 a brief review of the ideas that have be put forward to explain the nature of the irreversible line is presented. Predictions made by these theories are then briefly compared with the results of recent experiments. This leads to the proposal of the irreversible line representing a freezing of the flux liquid into a flux solid. To examine the freezing transition, a relatively straightforward theory has been developed, known as density functional theory. The basis for this theory is presented in Chapter 3, and the formalism developed. The freezing of the flux lattice can then be calculated using a phenomenological form for the interaction potential of the flux lines. The results obtained for the freezing line enable a comparison between experiment and theory. In Chapter 4 an attempt to better understand the interaction potential of the flux lines is considered via a simple two-layer model. Such a model enables a better understanding of the nature of the full 3D interaction. Having calculated the interaction potential, it is then possible to repeat the calculation of Chapter 3, replacing the original phenomenological potential. The results are again compared with both experiment and earlier results. Having calculated the freezing line, the case of low magnetic field and T close to Tc is examined in Chapter 5. In this region the existence of a vortex gas is postulated. The approximate location of this state in the phase diagram is calculated, and its consequences discussed in term s of experimentally measurable effects. Finally, Chapter 6 examines the critical current by using a model of a granular superconductor. The Josephson current is calculated by finding the Green’s functions for the system in the absence of magnetic field, and then using these in a linear response theory, valid for small values of applied field. While this work has not yet been completed, preliminary results show that the calculated form of the critical current is consistent with previously published results.
