description: It has been repeatedly stated that maximum likelihood (ML) estimates of exponents of power-law distributions can only be reliably obtained for exponents smaller than minus one. The main argument that power laws are otherwise not normalizable, depends on the underlying sample space the data is drawn from, and is true only for sample spaces that are unbounded from above. Here we show that power-laws obtained from bounded sample spaces (as is the case for practically all data related problems) are always free of such limitations and maximum likelihood estimates can be obtained for arbitrary powers without restrictions. Here we first derive the appropriate ML estimator for arbitrary exponents of power-law distributions on bounded discrete sample spaces. We then show that an almost identical estimator also works perfectly for continuous data. We implemented this ML estimator and discuss its performance with previous attempts. We present a general recipe of how to use these estimators and present the associated computer codes.

description: Single point observations are presented in NH3 (1,1) and (2,2) inversion transitions using the Effelsberg 100 m telescope for a sample of 100 6.7 GHz methanol masers and mapping observations in the 12CO and 13CO (1-0) transitions using the PMO Delingha 13.7 m telescope for 82 sample sources with detected ammonia. A further 62 sources were selected for either 12CO or 13CO line outflow identification, producing 45 outflow candidates, 29 using 12CO and 16 using 13CO data. Twenty-two of the outflow candidates were newly identified, and 23 had trigonometric parallax distances. Physical properties were derived from ammonia lines and CO outflow parameters calculated. Histograms and statistical correlations for ammonia, CO outflow parameters, and 6.7 GHz methanol maser luminosities are also presented. No significant correlation was found between ammonia and maser luminosity. However, weak correlations were found between outflow properties and maser luminosities, which may indicate that outflows are physically associated with 6.7 GHz masers.

Detection of intensity bursts using Hawkes processes: an application to high frequency financial data

description: Given a stationary point process, an intensity burst is defined as a short time period during which the number of counts is larger than the typical count rate. It might signal a local non-stationarity or the presence of an external perturbation to the system. In this paper we propose a novel procedure for the detection of intensity bursts within the Hawkes process framework. By using a model selection scheme we show that our procedure can be used to detect intensity bursts when both their occurrence time and their total number is unknown. Moreover, the initial time of the burst can be determined with a precision given by the typical inter-event time. We apply our methodology to the mid-price change in FX markets showing that these bursts are frequent and that only a relatively small fraction is associated to news arrival. We show lead-lag relations in intensity burst occurrence across different FX rates and we discuss their relation with price jumps.

description: The 60-year presence of the Italian Archaeological Mission in Swat, has built a substantial continuity among the skilled workers from one generation to the next resulting in a working experience that is unique in this field. This experience was transformed in 2011-2014 into a model of intervention, the ACT project. In view of this experience, a specific approach in conservative restoration was designed with special reference to the materials and skills of the local workers. The need was felt to come up with a low cost type of intervention based on clear-cut methodological concepts that would allow government agencies in future to plan maintenance and restoration cycles also on a large scale, that is with an order of magnitude that the administration of cultural heritage has to cope with in Swat and in Pakistan. This model of intervention is pictured through two test cases, i.e. the Main Stupa at the site of Saidu Sharif I, and the colossal rock-carving of Jahanabad.

description: Small inner working angle coronagraphs are essential to benefit from the full potential of large and future extremely large ground-based telescopes, especially in the context of the detection and characterization of exoplanets. Among existing solutions, the vortex coronagraph stands as one of the most effective and promising solutions. However, for focal-plane coronagraph, a small inner working angle comes necessarily at the cost of a high sensitivity to pointing errors. This is the reason why a pointing control system is imperative to stabilize the star on the vortex center against pointing drifts due to mechanical flexures, that generally occur during observation due for instance to temperature and/or gravity variations. We have therefore developed a technique called QACITS (Quadrant Analysis of Coronagraphic Images for Tip-tilt Sensing), which is based on the analysis of the coronagraphic image shape to infer the amount of pointing error. It has been shown that the flux gradient in the image is directly related to the amount of tip-tilt affecting the beam. The main advantage of this technique is that it does not require any additional setup and can thus be easily implemented on all current facilities equipped with a vortex phase mask. In this paper, we focus on the implementation of the QACITS sensor at Keck/NIRC2, where an L-band AGPM has been recently commissioned (June and October 2015), successfully validating the QACITS estimator in the case of a centrally obstructed pupil. The algorithm has been designed to be easily handled by any user observing in vortex mode, which is available for science in shared risk mode since 2016B.

Subjects: Australian music, guitar music, Vietnamese traditional music

description: For more than fifty years, Australian composers have continued to look for new musical ideas and inspiration in the music of other cultures demonstrating significant interest in the music of China, Bali, Java, Japan and the Pacific. This thesis aims to contribute to the Australasian musical interchanges with a repertoire of guitar music with Vietnamese cultural influences. Based on ethnomusicological research, these creative works will weave together Vietnamese social-cultural contexts and musical materials with Western art music styles, exploring and enhancing the musical-technical possibilities of the guitar as the expressive medium. International collaborations have extended this repertoire to ensemble performances of guitar and Vietnamese traditional instruments; guitar and Vietnamese Gong ensemble; and guitar and percussion from Europe, Africa, India, Tibet, China, Middle East, and the Caribbean. In the process of ethnomusicological research into Vietnamese and French primary sources, this thesis has also made original contributions shedding new light on the changes and development of Southern Vietnamese traditional music in the late nineteenth century to the early decades of the twentieth century. A new voice in Australian music, this creative project is an expression of tradition, innovation and global interaction.

description: Charge-carrier transport in a paradigmatic semicrystalline polymer semiconductor (P3HT) is important for both fundamental understanding and applications. In samples with enhanced structural disorder due to ad-hoc point defects, the mobility displays rich behavior as a function of electric field (F) and temperature (T). At low T, the mobility increases with the applied field, but upon further increasing T, the field-dependence becomes shallower. Eventually, at the highest T considered, the slope changes sign and the mobility then decreases with the field. This phenomenon can be interpreted with our model as a result of the competition between intrachain conductive-like transport (which slows on increasing F) and interchain activated transport (which is faster at higher F). The former is controlling at high T where interchain hops are strictly limited to nearest-neighbor monomers on adjacent chains. At low T, instead, interchain hops to distant sites are allowed and control the positive correlation of the mobility with the field.

description: Deterministically aperiodic sequences are an intermediary between periodic sequences and completely random sequences. Materials which are translationally periodic have Bloch-like extended states, while random media exhibit Anderson localisation. Materials constructed on the basis of deterministic aperiodic sequences such as Fibonacci, Thue-Morse, and Rudin-Shapiro exhibit different properties, which can be related to their spectrum. Here, by investigating the dynamics of discrete-time quantum walks using different aperiodic sequences of coin operations in position space and time we establish the role of the diffraction spectra in characterizing the spreading of the wavepacket.

description: Modern soil mapping is characterised by the need to interpolate samples of geostatistical response observations and the availability of relatively large numbers of environmental characteristics for consideration as covariates to aid this interpolation. We demonstrate the efficiency of the Least Angle Regression algorithm for Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) penalized multiple linear regression at selecting covariates to aid the spatial interpolation of geostatistical soil carbon observations under an ultrahigh dimensional scenario. Where an exhaustive search of the models that could be constructed from 800 potential covariate terms and 60 observations would be prohibitively demanding, LASSO variable selection is accomplished with trivial computational investment.

description: Stranded seaweeds are reported worldwide; along the Brazilian coast, the occurrence of beach-cast seaweeds is increasing. In this study the diversity, coverage and biomass of beach-cast seaweeds were compared on the north-eastern (NE) and south-eastern (SE) coasts of Brazil. In total 110 taxa were identified: 80 Rhodophyceae, 13 Phaeophyceae and 17 Chlorophyceae. While the NE coast had higher species richness, the SE beaches exhibited higher coverage and biomass, predominantly Phaeophytes within the Dictyotales. The identified taxa were attributed to five functional-form groups and their respective frequencies were calculated and analysed. In Brazil, corticated species displayed the highest frequency at all study sites, especially Emboaca Beach, whereas the corticated foliose group was more frequent on Candeias, Itaoca and Pontal Beaches. A permutational analysis of variance revealed significant differences in coverage and biomass of the macroalgal assemblages across beaches. A homogeneity of multivariate dispersions indicated that these parameters also differed significantly between the NE and SE coasts, with a marked dissimilarity between the beaches studied. Our results will contribute to a better understanding of the biodiversity and biomass of beach-cast seaweeds for possible future economic use (e.g. as fertilizer) in a region where local incomes are low.

description: The Pacific coast of the Baja California peninsula (Mexico) is a unique biogeographic transition zone, where many kelp species encounter their southern subtropical limits and have experienced a range contraction in the northern hemisphere. Using reciprocal transplant experiments with giant kelp populations from their southern limit and a northern temperate site on the Baja California peninsula, we hypothesized that juveniles from the southern site would grow longer, have more fronds (an individual stipe with its blades), and have higher photosynthetic efficiency (α) and blade tissue nitrogen, especially under warmer nitrate-limited field conditions experienced in their habitat. At the southern-limit transplant site, local juveniles had more fronds compared with those from the north after 90 days in field conditions (warm waters). At the northern transplant site, blade tissue nitrogen of juveniles from both populations was low after 23 days in field conditions (not significantly different during a warm water period), however, after a further 56 day cooling period and shortly after a strong upwelling event, juveniles from the southern population had greater blade tissue nitrogen concentrations than those from the north, which showed little change. Respiration and a were both greater at higher temperatures in juveniles from the southern population, and this pattern was maintained under warm water field conditions. These physiological differences in conspecific juveniles from different populations may be driven by population-level adaptation to frequently occurring thermal and nutrient stress in southern Baja California, which is the southern distribution limit for giant kelp. Further exploration of population level differences in ecophysiology should be applied to kelp forest restoration efforts as oceans warm.

description: The quantum Rabi model describes the interaction between a two-level quantum system and a single bosonic mode. We propose a method to perform a quantum simulation of the quantum Rabi model introducing a novel implementation of the two-level system, provided by the occupation of Bloch bands in the first Brillouin zone by ultracold atoms in tailored optical lattices. The effective qubit interacts with a quantum harmonic oscillator implemented in an optical dipole trap. Our realistic proposal allows to experimentally investigate the quantum Rabi model for extreme parameter regimes, which are not achievable with natural light-matter interactions. Furthermore, we also identify a generalized version of the quantum Rabi model in a periodic phase space.

description: We perform MHD modeling of a single bright coronal loop to include the interaction with a non-uniform magnetic field. The field is stressed by random footpoint rotation in the central region and its energy is dissipated into heating by growing currents through anomalous magnetic diffusivity that switches on in the corona above a current density threshold. We model an entire single magnetic flux tube, in the solar atmosphere extending from the high-beta chromosphere to the low-beta corona through the steep transition region. The magnetic field expands from the chromosphere to the corona. The maximum resolution is ~30 km. We obtain an overall evolution typical of loop models and realistic loop emission in the EUV and X-ray bands. The plasma confined in the flux tube is heated to active region temperatures (~3 MK) after ~2/3 hr. Upflows from the chromosphere up to ~100 km/s fill the core of the flux tube to densities above 10^9 cm^-3. More heating is released in the low corona than the high corona and is finely structured both in space and time.

description: Squeezing ensemble of spins provides a way to surpass the standard quantum limit (SQL) in quantum metrology and test the fundamental physics as well, and therefore attracts broad interest. Here we propose an experimentally accessible protocol to squeeze a giant ensemble of spins via the geometric phase control. Using the cavity-assisted Raman transitions in a double $Λ$-type system, we realize an effective Dicke model. Under the condition of vanishing effective spin transition frequency, we find a particular evolution time where the cavity decouples from the spins and the spin ensemble is squeezed considerably. Our scheme has the potential to improve the sensitivity in quantum metrology with spins by about two orders.

description: We propose two parallel state-space exploration algorithms for hybrid systems with the goal of enhancing performance on multi-core shared memory systems. The first is an adaption of the parallel breadth first search in the SPIN model checker. We show that the adapted algorithm does not provide the desired load balancing for many hybrid systems benchmarks. The second is a task parallel algorithm based on cheaply precomputing cost of post (continuous and discrete) operations for effective load balancing. We illustrate the task parallel algorithm and the cost precomputation of post operators on a support-function-based algorithm for state-space exploration. The performance comparison of the two algorithms displays a better CPU utilization/load-balancing of the second over the first, except for certain cases. The algorithms are implemented in the model checker XSpeed and our experiments show a maximum speed-up of $900\times$ on a navigation benchmark with respect to SpaceEx LGG scenario, comparing on the basis of equal number of post operations evaluated.

Case-driven collaborative classification

description: The Multiple Classification Ripple Down Rules (MCRDR) knowledge acquisition approach is explored in an environment where knowledge is continuously changing and where multiple agents need to contribute to and learn from the resultant expert system. A collaborative approach to expert system development is proposed in which private individual views and public shared views of the knowledge can coexist, permitting changes in the knowledge to be highlighted, the impact notified to interested parties, and conflicts between agents to be exposed and resolved. By tracking the public and private historical case-RuleNode associations, the proposed approach allows consensus to be built; hence the brittleness of the acquired knowledge can be more rapidly reduced. The support centre of a major international corporation in the information and communications industry forms a case study in which the nature of trouble-shooting (problem solving) is studied. The research finds that troubleshooting comprises a case-configuration classification- conclusion cycle. An analogy between collaborative MCRDR and collaborative tagging systems is developed and a stochastic model is derived showing that the trajectories in much of the past machine learning case-driven knowledge acquisition studies can be predicted by the acquisition of classification knowledge on the basis of a random set of incoming repetitive cases, irrespective of the specific case-driven knowledge acquisition approach employed. Further to this, the research highlights the significant amount of domain dependent Knowledge Engineering expertise that can be required by various Ripple Down Rules (RDR) implementations, and proposes that rather than primacy being given to the classification as in conventional rule based systems, or alternatively to the case as in existing RDR systems, primacy should be given to building consensus between collaborating agents in as far as consensus is required to achieve a mature knowledge base. A collaborative hybrid Case And Rule Driven (CARD) approach to knowledge acquisition known as 7Cs is proposed. The 7Cs approach supports the Collaborative Configuration and Classification of a stream of incoming problem Cases via a set of ConditionNodes linked to their Classes and associated Conclusions. The approach is trialled through a software prototype system known as FastFIX. After less than a day of collective effort the test team had acquired enough knowledge for FastFIX to automatically identify and locate solutions to approximately 90% of problems in the selected sub-domain.

description: Public health has become a significant focus in this modern era due to the increasing number of people suffering from various diseases. Unhealthy diets and lack of physical activity are often associated with multiple health problems, one of which is obesity. Several studies have been conducted to develop food recommendation systems for individuals with obesity, using K-Means and Random Forest algorithms to provide food recommendations based on user-specific aspects. However, these studies do not provide supporting information, such as physical activity recommendations to address fitness issues or lack of physical activity. This study develops a diet and physical exercise recommendation system for individuals with obesity using a combination of K-Means and Random Forest. The system categorizes and classifies foods and physical exercises and provides customized recommendations based on user data analysis. The accuracy of the system was evaluated using the MAPE metric, with the highest accuracy for dietary food recommendations being 99.03% for the non-vegan lunch diet meal recommendation and the lowest being 70.74% for the vegan morning meal diet recommendation. The MAPE for physical exercise recommendations was consistently at 26.35%, indicating a stable accuracy of 73.65%. The test results show that the system recommends diet and physical exercise accurately.

description: Within the last decade powerful methods have been developed to study surfaces using bright low-energy positron beams. These novel analysis tools exploit the unique properties of positron interaction with surfaces, which comprise the absence of exchange interaction, repulsive crystal potential and positron trapping in delocalized surface states at low energies. By applying reflection high-energy positron diffraction (RHEPD) one can benefit from the phenomenon of total reflection below a critical angle that is not present in electron surface diffraction. Therefore, RHEPD allows the determination of the atom positions of (reconstructed) surfaces with outstanding accuracy. The main advantages of positron annihilation induced Auger-electron spectroscopy (PAES) are the missing secondary electron background in the energy region of Auger-transitions and its topmost layer sensitivity for elemental analysis. In order to enable the investigation of the electron polarization at surfaces low-energy spin-polarized positrons are used to probe the outermost electrons of the surface. Furthermore, in fundamental research the preparation of well defined surfaces tailored for the production of bound leptonic systems plays an outstanding role. In this report, it is envisaged to cover both, the fundamental aspects of positron surface interaction and the present status of surface studies using modern positron beam techniques.

description: In this modern era, Indonesian society widely utilizes social media, particularly Twitter, as a means to express their opinions. Every day, various opinions of Indonesian citizens are disseminated on this platform, including their views on prospective presidential candidates for the year 2024. Analyzing public opinions regarding prospective presidential candidates in 2024 is crucial to understanding the sentiment of the people toward these candidates. Such sentiment analysis can be conducted using deep learning techniques such as IndoBERT to acquire knowledge regarding the classification of sentiments as positive, neutral, or negative. IndoBERT is employed to generate vector representations that encapsulate the meaning of tokens, words, phrases, or texts. These representation vectors can then be input into a classification model to perform sentiment analysis. The sentiment classification model undergoes testing with a diverse set of tweets in the test dataset, which represent a wide range of public opinions. The evaluation results indicate an overall accuracy rate of 80%, with precision rates of 62% for negative sentiment, 81% for neutral sentiment, and 85% for positive sentiment. Additionally, the recall rates for each sentiment are 64% for negative, 81% for neutral, and 84% for positive, with corresponding F1-scores of 63%, 81%, and 85%, respectively.
