description: The OPERA experiment was designed to observe the appearance of the vr in a pure beam ofvll (CNGS). The evidence ofthe appearance signal is provided by the detection of the daughter particles produced in the decay of charged lepton T. The hadronic decay channel has the largest branching ratio; in order to proficient1y use it for neutrino oscillation detection, one needs a good knowledge ofthe hadronic current in the OPERA experimental setup. The present work shows the data-acquisition and the comparative analysis of a "minimum-bias" sample of interactions to the standard simulation used in OPERA. The first chapter of this thesis work is an overview of neutrino physics; in the final part of the chapter some neutrino experiments are described. The second chapter focuses on the OPERA detector. The main components of the detector are explained as well as the physical performance of the experiment. Data-taking is the subject of the third chapter; the scanning procedure is shown, followed by the technique used to estimate the momentum of particles in the ECC. Finally, the fourth chapter presents the data analysis. [edited by Author]

description: There is a considerable interest in developing algorithms that can predict audio quality of perceptually coded signals to avoid the cost of extensive listening tests during development time. While many established algorithms for predicting the perceived quality of signals with monaural (timbral) distortions are available (PEAQ, POLQA), predicting the quality degradation of stereo and multi-channel spatial signals is still considered a challenge. Audio quality degradation arising from spatial distortions is usually measured in terms of well known inter-aural cue distortion measures such as Inter-aural Level Difference Distortions (ILDD), Inter-aural Time Difference Distortions (ITDD) and Inter-aural Cross Correlation Distortions (IACCD). However, the extent to which their interaction influences the overall audio quality degradation in complex signals as expressed - for example - in a multiple stimuli test is not yet thoroughly studied. We propose a systematic approach that introduces controlled combinations of spatial distortions on a representative set of signals and evaluates their influence on overall perceived quality degradation by analyzing listening test scores over said signals. From this study we derive guidelines for designing meaningful distortion measures that consider inter-aural cue distortion interactions.

description: Neutrinoless double beta decay is the only process known so far able to test the neutrino intrinsic nature: its experimental observation would imply that the lepton number is violated by two units and prove that neutrinos have a Majorana mass components, being their own anti-particle. While several experiments searching for such a rare decay have been performed in the past, a new generation of experiments using different isotopes and techniques have recently released their results or are taking data and will provide new limits, should no signal be observed, in the next few years to come. The present contribution reviews the latest public results on double beta decay searches and gives an overview on the expected sensitivities of the experiments in construction which will be able to set stronger limits in the near future.

description: Heterogeneous treatment effects (HTEs) are commonly identified during randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Identifying subgroups of patients with similar treatment effects is of high interest in clinical research to advance precision medicine. Often, multiple clinical outcomes are measured during an RCT, each having a potentially heterogeneous effect. Recently there has been high interest in identifying subgroups from HTEs, however, there has been less focus on developing tools in settings where there are multiple outcomes. In this work, we propose a framework for partitioning the covariate space to identify subgroups across multiple outcomes based on the joint CIs. We test our algorithm on synthetic and semi-synthetic data where there are two outcomes, and demonstrate that our algorithm is able to capture the HTE in both outcomes simultaneously.

description: Graph neural networks have achieved significant success in representation learning. However, the performance gains come at a cost; acquiring comprehensive labeled data for training can be prohibitively expensive. Active learning mitigates this issue by searching the unexplored data space and prioritizing the selection of data to maximize model's performance gain. In this paper, we propose a novel method SMARTQUERY, a framework to learn a graph neural network with very few labeled nodes using a hybrid uncertainty reduction function. This is achieved using two key steps: (a) design a multi-stage active graph learning framework by exploiting diverse explicit graph information and (b) introduce label propagation to efficiently exploit known labels to assess the implicit embedding information. Using a comprehensive set of experiments on three network datasets, we demonstrate the competitive performance of our method against state-of-the-arts on very few labeled data (up to 5 labeled nodes per class).

description: This study investigates the impacts of agricultural R&D on farm income in Korea. We constructed a decomposition method where farm income change was decomposed into the four effects of output price change, input price change, productivity change and production scale change. Before the decomposition method was applied, the impacts of the R&D expenditure on the changes in output prices, input prices, total factor productivity, and factor-bias were econometrically estimated. We found that the agricultural R&D expenditure negatively affected farm income by reducing agricultural product prices substantially. On the other hand, the agricultural R&D expenditure resulted in a saving in cost by reducing input prices and enhancing productivity. An increase in production scale owing to the R&D expenditure also contributed to farm income slightly. The sum of the positive effects of input price decline, productivity change, and scale change of the agricultural R&D dominated the negative effect of output price decline. Finally, it was found that the R&D effects are substantially variant across farm households depending on their choice of products, input shares, farmland size, and production location.

This observation can be explained in the context of standard model extensions with new gauge bosons $W'$, $Z'$ and heavy neutrinos coupling (mainly) to the electron. We discuss additional signals that allow to confirm or discard the $W'$ and $Z'$ hypotheses.

description: This work introduces a feature extracted from stereophonic/binaural audio signals aiming to represent a measure of perceived quality degradation in processed spatial auditory scenes. The feature extraction technique is based on a simplified stereo signal model considering auditory events positioned towards a given direction in the stereo field using amplitude panning (AP) techniques. We decompose the stereo signal into a set of directional signals for given AP values in the Short-Time Fourier Transform domain and calculate their overall loudness to form a directional loudness representation or maps. Then, we compare directional loudness maps of a reference signal and a deteriorated version to derive a distortion measure aiming to describe the associated perceived degradation scores reported in listening tests. The measure is then tested on an extensive listening test database with stereo signals processed by state-of-the-art perceptual audio codecs using non waveform-preserving techniques such as bandwidth extension and joint stereo coding, known for presenting a challenge to existing quality predictors. Results suggest that the derived distortion measure can be incorporated as an extension to existing automated perceptual quality assessment algorithms for improving prediction on spatially coded audio signals.

description: Türkiye is located on a fault line; earthquakes often occur on a large and small scale. There is a need for effective solutions for gathering current information during disasters. We can use social media to get insight into public opinion. This insight can be used in public relations and disaster management. In this study, Twitter posts on Izmir Earthquake that took place on October 2020 are analyzed. We question if this analysis can be used to make social inferences on time. Data mining and natural language processing (NLP) methods are used for this analysis. NLP is used for sentiment analysis and topic modelling. The latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm is used for topic modelling. We used the Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) model working with Transformers architecture for sentiment analysis. It is shown that the users shared their goodwill wishes and aimed to contribute to the initiated aid activities after the earthquake. The users desired to make their voices heard by competent institutions and organizations. The proposed methods work effectively. Future studies are also discussed.

description: Results are presented from the first cometary observations using the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA), including measurements of the spatially-resolved distributions of HCN, HNC, H$_2$CO and dust within the comae of two comets: C/2012 F6 (Lemmon) and C/2012 S1 (ISON), observed at heliocentric distances of 1.5 AU and 0.54 AU, respectively. These observations (with angular resolution $\approx0.5''$), reveal an unprecedented level of detail in the distributions of these fundamental cometary molecules, and demonstrate the power of ALMA for quantitative measurements of the distributions of molecules and dust in the inner comae of typical bright comets. In both comets, HCN is found to originate from (or within a few hundred km of) the nucleus, with a spatial distribution largely consistent with spherically-symmetric, uniform outflow. By contrast, the HNC distributions are clumpy and asymmetrical, with peaks at cometocentric radii $\sim$500-1000~km, consistent with release of HNC in collimated outflow(s). Compared to HCN, the H$_2$CO distribution in comet Lemmon is very extended. The interferometric visibility amplitudes are consistent with coma production of H$_2$CO and HNC from unidentified precursor material(s) in both comets. Adopting a Haser model, the H$_2$CO parent scale-length is found to be a few thousand km in Lemmon and only a few hundred km in ISON, consistent with destruction of the precursor by photolysis or thermal degradation at a rate which scales in proportion to the Solar radiation flux.

title: Investigating the transcriptional and histological profile of pericardial adipose tissue
Creators: name: Al-Dibouni, Alaa
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2023

description: Introduction: The nutritional environment encountered in utero and during adulthood influences the development of adipose tissue (AT). Brown-like cells residing in AT that often promote a beneficial metabolic profile, may become dysfunctional in metabolic disease. Alterations in AT may increase the risk of developing Cardiovascular Disease and Type 2 Diabetes. Aim: There is still a lack of knowledge regarding the role of AT associated with the heart, such as pericardial adipose tissue (PAT), in normal and dysregulated metabolism. This thesis aims to provide an insight into the therapeutic potential and adipogenic, inflammatory and thermogenic capacity of PAT, in mice. Method: The transcriptional and histological profile of PAT, compared to other adipose depots, was assessed in male C57BL/6 mice. Firstly, PAT was harvested from mice fed either a chow or high-fat (HF)-diet, for 7 or 26 weeks. Secondly, PAT was sampled from offspring mice fed a post-weaning diet of either a chow or HF-diet for 26 weeks, from dams fed a chow or HF�diet prior to and during pregnancy and lactation. Finally, PAT was collected from chow and HF-fed mice treated orally with and without Compound 14 (Cpd14) for 10 days and after a 26- day recovery period. Results: Firstly, there were differences in brown and white adipocyte markers of PAT, depending on the nutritional environment encountered. Secondly, both the maternal and offspring diet influenced the thermogenic potential of PAT. Finally, Cpd14 potentially upregulated the thermogenic capacity of PAT to induce weight loss in obese mice. Conclusion: Collectively, PAT in mice has a unique transcriptional and histological profile, altered by dietary exposure in utero and during adulthood, and upon therapeutic stimulation. The underlying mechanisms involved are still unknown, however there is compelling evidence that PAT as a beige depot is an attractive therapeutic target.

description: The Perceptual Evaluation of Audio Quality (PEAQ) method as described in the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) recommendation ITU-R BS.1387 has been widely used for computationally estimating the quality of perceptually coded audio signals without the need for extensive subjective listening tests. However, many reports have highlighted clear limitations of the scheme after the end of its standardization, particularly involving signals coded with newer technologies such as bandwidth extension or parametric multi-channel coding. Until now, no other method for measuring the quality of both speech and audio signals has been standardized by the ITU. Therefore, a further investigation of the causes for these limitations would be beneficial to a possible update of said scheme. Our experimental results indicate that the performance of PEAQ's model of disturbance loudness is still as good as (and sometimes superior to) other state-of-the-art objective measures, albeit with varying performance depending on the type of degraded signal content (i.e. speech or music). This finding evidences the need for an improved cognitive model. In addition, results indicate that an updated mapping of Model Output Values (MOVs) to PEAQ's Distortion Index (DI) based on newer training data can greatly improve performance. Finally, some suggestions for the improvement of PEAQ are provided based on the reported results and comparison to other systems.

description: We study the field intensity fluctuations of two independent four-wave mixing signals generated in a cold rubidium sample as well as the transmission signals. We employ an experimental setup using a single CW laser to induce the nonlinear process in a forward geometry using either parallel and circular or orthogonal and linear polarizations of the input fields. Even though the spectra of each experimental configuration are significantly different due to the distinct level structures of each scenario, both cases present intensit-intensity cross-correlation of the four-wave mixing signals. We also calculate the cross-correlation between the input fields and draft a theoretical model that points that resonant phase-noise to amplitude-noise conversion allows the observation of Rabi oscillations in the cross-correlation curves.

description: The Short Gambling Harm Screen (SGHS) is currently the most frequently used dedicated measure of gambling-related harm (GRH). Despite evidence of robust psychometric properties, concerns have been raised about the validity of the scale. Specifically, several prominent researchers have suggested several SGHS items may not depict ‘genuine’ harms – instead reflecting either rational opportunity costs or mere engagement in alternative activities. As the SGHS is designed to measure GRH at a population-level, an over-estimation of harm may have serious ramifications for policy development and resource allocation. A research project was undertaken to probe the validity of the SGHS. A retrospective quantitative analysis of survey data from Australian adults was conducted to answer various hypotheses drawn from these questions. Two novel research articles present the findings of these investigations. These articles comprise the substantive chapters (2-3) of this thesis. In Article I, we sought to determine whether the SGHS – and constituent items – predicted gambling harms that were ‘unimpeachably’ harmful, i.e., items that conservatively reflected ‘genuine’ harm. We found strong concordance between the SGHS and a novel scale consisting entirely of ‘unimpeachable’ harms. In Article II, we tested whether the SGHS predicted external benchmarks of harm. We found that higher scores on the SGHS – as well as endorsement of any individual constituent item – predicted both lower wellbeing and higher psychological distress. Results from both studies indicate that SGHS scores predict changes in benchmarks that would be expected of a measure that captured GRH. More research is required to determine whether question-ordering and other contextual elements affect replicability of these findings across different cohorts and jurisdictions. In conclusion, this program of research supports the validity of the SGHS as a population screen for GRH.

description: There is a considerable opportunity to improve the planning and control of construction work. The construction industry is still struggling to adopt to the digital revolution’s concepts due to complexity, uncertainty, the fragmented supply chain, the short-term thinking, and the culture of ad hoc solutions. The main purpose of this document is to describe the business and decision-making processes to support lean project planning, control, and risk management with digital twin data.
 Additionally, this document also presents and describes a process model that has been developed for the construction phase. In this task, three demo-sites have been investigated. All three projects were building construction projects hence no infrastructure projects have been researched. To describe the designed process model, IDEF0-notation was used. A vital part of using digital twins to support process management and agile planning is the capture of data from the site.

 The produced process model contains five different process groups: initiating, planning, implementing, controlling, and closing and is generally based on the demonstration sites within the ASHVIN project and applicable to constructions sites worldwide. From each demonstration site information was gathered considering how data-collection had been conducted on each site using various digital tools and how they corresponded to the different KPI’s within the project. The methods were then analysed and evaluated how they could be implemented in a work breakdown structure (WBS) and location breakdown structure (LBS). These methods in combination with the process model allows the team to detect issues, react and adjust the schedule to make the whole process smoother. It can assist them in planning when to take in certain disciplines and when to order materials.
 During this task the demonstration projects were already in the construction phase, which meant that it was mainly controlling activities that could be conducted according to the process model. It would be interesting to be able to test the process model from the beginning of a construction project, in other words from the initiating phase. Multiple findings have been made throughout this study. The main takeaway from is how vital it is for a project to decide in an early stage the prerequisites that will be needed to control and affect the project during the construction phase. This is the reason why it is essential to make sure that the process model as well as the digital tools are applied in depth. The second point to be made is to understand that all the KPI’s mentioned in the results section can be collected using a multitude of different tools and methods.
 This report has met its main purpose of describing the business and decision-making processes to support lean project planning, control, and risk management with digital twin data.

The Amplituhedron from Momentum Twistor Diagrams

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We propose a new diagrammatic formulation of the all-loop scattering amplitudes/Wilson loops in planar N=4 SYM, dubbed the "momentum-twistor diagrams". These are on-shell-diagrams obtained by gluing trivalent black and white vertices defined in momentum twistor space, which, in the reduced diagram case, are known to be related to diagrams in the original twistor space. The new diagrams are manifestly Yangian invariant, and they naturally represent factorization and forward-limit contributions in the all-loop BCFW recursion relations in momentum twistor space, in a fashion that is completely different from those in momentum space. We show how to construct and evaluate momentum-twistor diagrams, and how to use them to obtain tree-level amplitudes and loop-level integrands; in particular for the latter we identify an isolated bubble-structure for each loop variable, arising from a forward limit, or entangled removal of particles. From a given diagram one can directly read off the C, D matrices via a generalized "boundary measurement"; this in turn determines a cell in the amplituhedron associated with the amplitude, and our diagrammatic representations of the amplitude can provide triangulations of the amplituhedron with generally very intricate geometries. To demonstrate the computational power of the formalism, we give explicit results for general two-loop integrands, and the cells of the complete amplituhedron for two-loop MHV amplitudes.

description: The Kardashev scale is a procedure by which we can detect the advancement in technology and the amount of energy our civilisation is consuming presently from planetary scale. Astrophysicist Nikolai Kardashev suggested that it is possible to distinguish civilisations based on their capability to harness energy from different stages: Type I- from planetary bodies, Type II- from star, Type III- from host galaxy. At present, our human civilisation consumes 17e+12 J/sec energy which places us at 0.72 as per 2015. In order for us to step up to Type I, total energy harnessed by us should be 1e+16 J/sec. Although the difference from 0.72 to 1 seems less, we have to keep in mind that the energy consumption has to increase by 1 million. Literature suggests a gradual hyperexponential curve in this concern. Along with these changes, the civilisation will undergo physical and thermodynamic transformations. There are various biochemical processes that will occur at different ecological trophic levels due to the abundance of complex polymer molecules. When two or more reactions are coupled such that thermodynamically favourable and unfavourable reactions combine, it overall results in a favourable reaction. For each phase transitions occurring, we can thermodynamically calculate temperature, pressure dependencies and other changes that are taking place in the environment at equilibrium. We have aimed to elaborate the energy consumption by a graphical approach, observing the physical, thermodynamic modifications. Detection of different kinds of civilization should be having reinforcement of differential parameters to be incorporated into the conventional kardashev scaling system for deciphering grading, habitability and sustainability of intelligent civilization throughout the cosmos.

description: This is a review of recent work on quantum fluctuations of the electric field and of stress tensor operators and their physical effects. The probability distribution for vacuum fluctuations of the electric field is Gaussian, but that for quadratic operators, such as the energy density, can have a more slowly decreasing tail, leading to an enhanced probability of large fluctuations. This effect is very sensitive to the details of how the measurement is performed. Some possible physical effects of these large fluctuations will be discussed.

«Unsex Me Here»: Bodies and Femininity in the Performance History of Lady Macbeth
Creators: name: Phillips, Chelsea
Publisher: name: Roma : Carocci

Subjects: Shakespeare

Actor/actress

description: Jenijoy La Belle argued that Lady Macbeth’s “unsex me here” speech expresses Lady Macbeth’s desire to be made more masculine through amenorrhea. This amenorrhea enables Duncan’s murder, but leaves her barren. La Belle’s essay is predicated on Lady Macbeth’s female and initially fertile body, which is rendered barren by her actions in the first act. This paper considers alternative readings of Lady Macbeth’s femininity and amenorrhea codified by two historical bodies: the male body of Shakespeare’s original actor and the pregnant body of Sarah Siddons in 1785 and 1794. In the original performance, the boy actor seeks an amenorrhea that, like his inability to bear children, already, and always, exists. Siddons’ Lady Macbeth likewise requests an existing amenorrhea, but one which is a symptom of a pregnancy, not barrenness. The original boy actor’s body contains no potential for maternity; Siddons’ pregnant body, in contrast, is visibly fertile, offering the possibility of dynastic continuance for Macbeth. A barren Lady Macbeth denies the possibility of dynasty through amenorrhea; a pregnant Lady Macbeth’s amenorrhea reinforces her fertility.
