description: For those seeking healthcare advice online, AI based dialogue agents capable of interacting with patients to perform automatic disease diagnosis are a viable option. This application necessitates efficient inquiry of relevant disease symptoms in order to make accurate diagnosis recommendations. This can be formulated as a problem of sequential feature (symptom) selection and classification for which reinforcement learning (RL) approaches have been proposed as a natural solution. They perform well when the feature space is small, that is, the number of symptoms and diagnosable disease categories is limited, but they frequently fail in assignments with a large number of features. To address this challenge, we propose a Multi-Model-Fused Actor-Critic (MMF-AC) RL framework that consists of a generative actor network and a diagnostic critic network. The actor incorporates a Variational AutoEncoder (VAE) to model the uncertainty induced by partial observations of features, thereby facilitating in making appropriate inquiries. In the critic network, a supervised diagnosis model for disease predictions is involved to precisely estimate the state-value function. Furthermore, inspired by the medical concept of differential diagnosis, we combine the generative and diagnosis models to create a novel reward shaping mechanism to address the sparse reward problem in large search spaces. We conduct extensive experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets for empirical evaluations. The results demonstrate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of diagnostic accuracy and interaction efficiency while also being more effectively scalable to large search spaces. Besides, our method is adaptable to both categorical and continuous features, making it ideal for online applications.

Syntypus: TURKEY: “ Adalia ”, 14.III.1845, Heldreich 475 (B [B100241718 seven plants in flower], G-BOIS [G00332299], W [W00075701 B, W18890010563 five top plants in flower]).
Notes. – The protologue cited flowering material collected in March and fruiting in April, and by citing a specimen in Kew collected in April as an isotype, BURTT (1951) basically made a first step lectotypification. However, he did not indicate where the type (or lectotype) is housed, and that step is completed herein.
To our knowledge, there are only three numbered sheets (Heldreich 475) that indicate a flowering date of 14 March 1845 and fruiting date of 5 April 1845. The sheet in G-BOIS is cited above as a syntype. The other sheet is at B, and it has seven plants in flowers and three in fruit, and the mixed collections B100241718 and W18890010563 each is listed as an isotype and syntype.
Label of G-BOIS [G00332299] gives a slightly different locality “Dans les cailloux (non in arenosis!!) au bord de la mer à 1 lieue à l’ouest d’Adalia. le 14 mars en fleurs. Le 5 avril les siliques. 1845” and the duplicate includes only two plants in flower.

description: Multi-plane PIV measurements were performed in an open-channel flume filled with elongated prisms of height k and width   to investigate the effect of the deepening of the canopy on the flow structure. Velocity measurements were performed both inside the canopy and above it. Analysis of the spatial convergence for the double-averaged quantities shows that for canopy flow investigations (z < k), at least 5 measurement planes are required to obtain a relative spatial convergence error below 3% for the dispersive shear stress, the quantity the most sensible to spatial sampling. With only three measurement planes, the spatial convergence is below 1% only in the flow region above the canopy (z > k). Three canopy aspect ratios, k/ℓ = [1, 3, 6] were investigated for a fixed modified-submergence ratio β = (h − k)/ℓ = 3 where h is the water depth. As the canopy deepens, the hydraulic roughness decreases and the velocity near the bottom of the canopy becomes gradually constant, as expected for deep canopies. We show how the highly converged (both in space and time) profiles of double-averaged longitudinal velocity and total shear stress can be used to calculate the vertical distribution of drag in the canopy. With this methodology, values of the drag coefficient CD(z) can be calculated, and are found to be always close to unity, even in the upper part of the canopy.
title: Exploring the left-right ideological variance of national independence parties in Canada and Western Europe
Creators: name: Stokes, Adam
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2024

description: The aim of this thesis is to address a single research question: “What factors can explain the significant 
ideological variance that exists within Canadian and Western European national independence 
parties?” This thesis analyses left-right ideology from two perspectives, the traditional perception of 
left-right ideology and mainstream-radical ideology, which compares parties from mainstream 
ideological positions with those from the radical-left and radical-right. This thesis is a mixed methods 
study. This thesis analyses a newly created database, made up of two datasets of cases of national 
independence parties standing in both regional and statewide elections, in order to establish patterns 
regarding what might influence their ideology. The thesis then applies these results to pairs of nested 
cases, aiming to determine what specific factors might influence the ideological variation found 
between two different cases through controlled comparisons. When looking at traditional left-right 
ideology, this thesis compared the Faroe Islands and Greenland and then Flanders and Quebec. When 
looking at mainstream-radical ideology, this thesis compared the Basque Country and Catalonia and 
Scotland and Wales. It was found that monarchy, military spending and unemployment influence the 
traditional left-right ideology of national independence parties. Unemployment was found to be 
especially influential in both the cases of the Faroe Islands and Greenland and Flanders and Quebec. 
This thesis also finds that language, competition from a rival national independence party and 
immigration influence the mainstream-radical ideology of national independence parties. Language 
was found to be especially relevant when comparing the Basque Country and Catalonia while party 
competition was found to be most relevant when comparing Scotland and Wales. This thesis adds to 
the current literature by exploring national independence parties in their own right, rather than 
looking at regionalist parties more broadly. It also offers a new perspective on a number of different 
variables which were found to influence ideology, for example, the effect of monarchy.

description: Monocular image-based 3D perception has become an active research area in recent years owing to its applications in autonomous driving. Approaches to monocular 3D perception including detection and tracking, however, often yield inferior performance when compared to LiDAR-based techniques. Through systematic analysis, we identified that per-object depth estimation accuracy is a major factor bounding the performance. Motivated by this observation, we propose a multi-level fusion method that combines different representations (RGB and pseudo-LiDAR) and temporal information across multiple frames for objects (tracklets) to enhance per-object depth estimation. Our proposed fusion method achieves the state-of-the-art performance of per-object depth estimation on the Waymo Open Dataset, the KITTI detection dataset, and the KITTI MOT dataset. We further demonstrate that by simply replacing estimated depth with fusion-enhanced depth, we can achieve significant improvements in monocular 3D perception tasks, including detection and tracking.

description: This paper is concerned with Kolmogorov's two-equation model for free turbulence in space dimension 3, involving the mean velocity u, the pressure p, an average frequency omega, and a mean turbulent kinetic energy k. We first discuss scaling laws for a slightly more general two-equation models to highlight the special role of the model devised by Kolmogorov in 1942. The main part of the paper consists in proving the existence of weak solutions of Kolmogorov's two-equation model under space-periodic boundary conditions in cubes with positive side length l.  To this end, we provide new a priori estimates and  invoke existence result for pseudo-monotone operators.

description: Scene flow represents the motion of points in the 3D space, which is the counterpart of the optical flow that represents the motion of pixels in the 2D image. However, it is difficult to obtain the ground truth of scene flow in the real scenes, and recent studies are based on synthetic data for training. Therefore, how to train a scene flow network with unsupervised methods based on real-world data shows crucial significance. A novel unsupervised learning method for scene flow is proposed in this paper, which utilizes the images of two consecutive frames taken by monocular camera without the ground truth of scene flow for training. Our method realizes the goal that training scene flow network with real-world data, which bridges the gap between training data and test data and broadens the scope of available data for training. Unsupervised learning of scene flow in this paper mainly consists of two parts: (i) depth estimation and camera pose estimation, and (ii) scene flow estimation based on four different loss functions. Depth estimation and camera pose estimation obtain the depth maps and camera pose between two consecutive frames, which provide further information for the next scene flow estimation. After that, we used depth consistency loss, dynamic-static consistency loss, Chamfer loss, and Laplacian regularization loss to carry out unsupervised training of the scene flow network. To our knowledge, this is the first paper that realizes the unsupervised learning of 3D scene flow from monocular camera. The experiment results on KITTI show that our method for unsupervised learning of scene flow meets great performance compared to traditional methods Iterative Closest Point (ICP) and Fast Global Registration (FGR).

description: In this paper, we present a work in progress about a deep learning based approach for automatic code optimization in polyhedral compilers. The proposed technique explores combinations of affine and non-affine loop transformations to find the sequence of transformations that minimizes the execution time of a given program. This exploration is guided by a deep learning based cost model that evaluates the speedup that each sequence of transformations would yield. Preliminary results show that the proposed techniques achieve a 2.35x geometric mean speedup over state of the art polyhedral compilers (Pluto).

description: The system of a transversely pumped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) coupled to a lossy ring cavity can favor a supersolid steady state. Here we find the existence of supersolid gap soliton in such a driven-dissipative system. By numerically solving the mean-field atom-cavity field coupling equations, gap solitons of a few different families have been identified. Their dynamical properties, including stability, propagation and soliton collision, are also studied. Due to the feedback atom-intracavity field interaction, these supersolid gap solitons show numerous new features compared with the usual BEC gap solitons in static optical lattices.

description: Abstract: - There is hardly a clinical picture that is as unclear as Morgellons disease. The level of suffering of the patients (predominantly female) is considerable and they need therapy. They are psychologically oversensitive and fixated on the symptoms. Antipsychotics do not really help them. On the basis of twelve female patients, the author has developed a mixed naturopathic and pharmacological therapy that has proved successful and is presented here. It is based on the aetiological hypothesis of widespread subcutaneous fungal mycelia that live in symbiosis with other pathogens or parasites.

description: The increased integration of renewable energy poses a slew of technical challenges for the operation of power distribution networks. Among them, voltage fluctuations caused by the instability of renewable energy are receiving increasing attention. Utilizing MARL algorithms to coordinate multiple control units in the grid, which is able to handle rapid changes of power systems, has been widely studied in active voltage control task recently. However, existing approaches based on MARL ignore the unique nature of the grid and achieve limited performance. In this paper, we introduce the transformer architecture to extract representations adapting to power network problems and propose a Transformer-based Multi-Agent Actor-Critic framework (T-MAAC) to stabilize voltage in power distribution networks. In addition, we adopt a novel auxiliary-task training process tailored to the voltage control task, which improves the sample efficiency and facilitating the representation learning of the transformer-based model. We couple T-MAAC with different multi-agent actor-critic algorithms, and the consistent improvements on the active voltage control task demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Notes. – CANDOLLE (1821b: 312) indicated that he examined the material in Labillardière’s herbarium, but as shown by STAFLEU & COWAN (1979), collections of that herbarium from Syria, which were in Lemonnier’s herbarium, are currently housed in the Geneva herbaria.
A search for possible duplicates in the VIRTUAL HERBARIA (2019) and P (including P-JU and P-LA), where many of Labillardière duplicates are currently housed, did not yield anything. Therefore, the listing of the holotype in P by AL-SHEHBAZ & MABBERLEY (2017) is erroneous.
By contrast, the G00371675 specimen is from Labilladière’s herbarium with two different labels indicating Syria and Liban but no date, and it is concluded here that this is the holotype. The G-DC specimen above is a fragmentary material with a label in Candolle’s handwriting “Alyssum petaloideam. M.Labillard. 1819” but no country or locality. The conclusion is that it was taken by Candolle from the holotype and, therefore, it is an isotype.

description: We experimentally determine the lattice dynamics of black phosphorus layered crystals through a combination of x-ray diffuse scattering and inelastic x-ray scattering, and we rationalize our experimental findings using $\textit{ab initio}$ calculations. From the phonon dispersions at terahertz frequencies, we derive the full single-crystal elastic tensor and relate it to the macroscopic elastic response of black phosphorus, described by the elastic moduli. The elastic stiffness coefficients obtained here provide an important benchmark for models of black phosphorus and related materials, such as phosphorene and black phosphorus nanotubes, recently emerged quantum materials, disclosing a huge potential for nanophotonics, optoelectronics, and quantum sensing.

Furthermore, four other collections (B [B100241466], G-BOIS [G00332311 plant on upper right], JE [JE0005735], KW) have the number 203 or 528, but with date of collection as 15 Jul 1843, and locality data as “Prope pagum Asadbar in partis occidentalibus m. Elburs ”. They too cannot be considered as part of the type collection.
The holotype sheet was annotated in Boissier’s handwriting. If the above 17 collections are to be considered syntypes, it is only because they carry one of two collection numbers that matches that of the holotype, but all other information are quite different.

description: We have applied the Gamow shell model to calculate nuclear observables of $^{26-31}$Ne isotopes pertaining to one-neutron halo structure, these nuclei being situated close to neutron drip-line. As both many-body correlations and continuum coupling are taken into account in that approach, halo structure can be analyzed properly. Our calculations provide good descriptions of $^{26-31}$Ne, where asymptotic behavior is crucial for that matter. One-body density, neutron root-mean-square radii of $^{26-31}$Ne, and one-neutron overlap functions of $^{29,31}$Ne have been calculated as well. Our results support the presence of a one-neutron \textit{p}-wave halo in $^{31}$Ne, already pointed out experimentally. A similar situation also occurs in the ground state of $^{29}$Ne, which is mainly a \textit{p}-wave valence neutron coupled to the inner $^{28}$Ne \textit{core}. The $3/2^+$ excited state of $^{29}$Ne, which is dominated by a \textit{d}-wave valence neutron, has also been considered. A larger radius and more extended wave function occur for the ground state of $^{29}$Ne when compared to its $3/2^+$ first excited state. The present results suggest that $^{29}$Ne is a good candidate for one-neutron \textit{p}-wave halo in the medium-mass region.

description: Die hier vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich generell mit Motiven im Laufsport. Konkret soll geklärt werden, welche Motive für die Ausübung des Laufsports wichtig sind, wobei auch genauer hinterfragt wird, welchen Stellenwert die Motive „Schönheit“ und „Fitness“ haben. Die im Zuge der Arbeit durchgeführte Untersuchung wird geschlechterspezifisch ausgewertet und die Ergebnisse werden ausführlich dargestellt und beschrieben. Bevor jedoch die Ergebnisse der empirisch-quantitativen Studie angeführt werden, wird ein theoretischer Input über das Thema gegeben. Das für die Arbeit gewählte Instrument stellt ein Fragebogen dar. Dieser wurde von 78 Läufern im Alter von 17 bis 62 Jahren und 68 Läuferinnen im Alter von 15 bis 62 Jahren (n=146) ausgefüllt. Zur Auswertung wurde die quantitative Forschungsmethode angewandt. Wie sich in der vorliegenden Arbeit gezeigt hat, steht das Motiv „Körperliche Fitness“ bei Männern an erster Stelle. Für Frauen ist jedoch das Motiv „Freude an Bewegung“ am wichtigsten. In Bezug auf die Fragen zum Thema “Schönheit” und zum Thema “Fitness” wurde kein signifikanter Unterschied zwischen den Geschlechtern festgestellt.
description: The present thesis analyses motives for running sports. The objective is to clarify which motives are important for practicing running sports. A particular focus is laid on the motives “beauty” and “fitness.” The data have been analyzed in regard to gender differences. Before discussing the results of the empirical-quantitative study, theoretical input is presented. The data have been collected via a questionnaire and have been analyzed using quantitative research. 78 male runners aged 17 to 62 years and 68 female runners aged 15 to 62 years took part in the study (n=146). The results of the study indicate that “physical fitness” is the most significant motive with men while “enjoying movement” is predominant with women. There were no gender differences found for issues of “beauty” and “fitness.”

description: Overuse of industrial nitrogen fertilizers causes environmental degradation through runoff, lowers soil pH, and generates greenhouse gas emissions. There is considerable interest in promoting biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) as a mechanism to reduce the inputs of nitrogen fertilizers in agriculture. However, considerable fundamental knowledge gaps need to be addressed to realize the potential impacts of BNF in agriculture. BNF is catalyzed by the enzyme nitrogenase, which requires a large amount of energy in the form of ATP and low potential electrons. Nitrogen-fixing organisms that respire aerobically have an advantage in meeting the energy demands of BNF but face challenges of protecting nitrogenase from inactivation by oxygen. The model aerobic nitrogen-fixing bacteria Azotobacter vinelandii has a unique electron transport system that accommodates excess oxygen while producing enough energy for nitrogenase. The mechanism, termed respiratory protection, consumes excess oxygen at the membrane and leads to lower oxygen accumulation in the cytosol. A. vinelandii also contains two enzymes, Rnf and Fix, that deliver reductant to nitrogenase in the form of low potential electrons. A physiological and systems-based approach was taken to understand how the dynamics of the electron transport systems are integrated to protect nitrogenase from oxygen while simultaneously creating enough energy for nitrogen fixation. A metabolic model of A. vinelandii was constructed that accurately determines growth rate under high oxygen and substrate concentrations, demonstrating the large flux directed to the respiratory protection mechanism. Interestingly, the respiratory protection mechanism is also required for accurate predictions even when ammonia is supplemented during growth, suggesting that respiratory protection might be an essential part of normal growth rather than strictly reserved for nitrogenase protection. The model has also shown how A. vinelandii can adapt under different oxygen concentrations, metal availability, and ammonia excreting phenotype by rearranging flux through the electron transport system. Through mutational studies of electron transport enzymes Rnf and Fix, Fix was shown to be required under low oxygen concentrations, and Rnf contributes to the regulation of redox homeostasis under high oxygen. Understanding the energy dynamics in aerobic nitrogen fixation will further allow the development of biotechnologies that can help supplement industrial nitrogenous fertilizer

description: Establishing sharp and correctly positioned boundaries in spatial gene expression patterns is a central task, both in developmental and synthetic biology. We consider situations where a global morphogen gradient provides positional information to cells, but is insufficient to ensure the required boundary precision, due to different types of noise in the system. In a conceptual model, we quantitatively compare three mechanisms, which combine the global signal with local signaling between neighboring cells, to enhance the boundary formation process. These mechanisms differ with respect to the way in which they combine the signals, by following either an AND, an OR, or a SUM rule. Within our model, we analyze the dynamics of the boundary formation process, and the fuzziness of the resulting boundary. Furthermore, we consider the tunability of the boundary position, and its scaling with system size. We nd that all three mechanisms produce less fuzzy boundaries than the purely gradient-based reference mechanism, even in the regime of high noise in the local signals relative to the noise in the global signal. Among the three mechanisms, the SUM rule produces the most accurate boundary. However, in contrast to the other two mechanisms, it requires noise to exit metastable states and rapidly reach the stable boundary pattern.

description: We report new photometric results based on very high time resolution observations in

BVR bands of SZ Lyn. The photometric observations were carried out using the 50 cm CDK

reflector at Mount Abu Observatory, India, on six nights. WASP and AAVSO data of SZ Lyn

were also considered. The observation was primarily attempted to determine the oscillation

frequencies beyond the well established main oscillation frequency of 8.295 cd-1. The light

curves were analyzed for frequencies from 5 to 100 cd-1 with a frequency step size of the order

10-5 cd-1. 7 frequencies were recovered in the light curves. The amplitudes and phases of the

frequencies were also determined for mode identification. The comparison of the theoretical

and observational amplitude ratios determined the fundamental frequency, 8.295 cd-1, as l= 0 mode. No higher order oscillation modes were found except the 6 harmonics of the fundamental frequency for SZ Lyn.
