description: We study the evolution of disk galaxies within the frame of the cold dark matter (CDM) cosmologies. The hydrodynamics of a centrifugally supported gaseous disk and the growth of a stellar disk are calculated in detail taking into account the energy balance of the ISM and the gravitational instabilities that concern gas and stars. The halo density profile is derived from the primordial cosmological conditions and its gravitational contraction produced by the disk is included. Several features of the spiral galaxies at different redshifts are predicted, and the main factors which influence on these features are found. A strong evidence is provided that the Tully-Fisher relation is an imprint of the primordial cosmological conditions.

description: Traditional supervised learning methods have historically encountered certain constraints in medical image segmentation due to the challenging collection process, high labeling cost, low signal-to-noise ratio, and complex features characterizing biomedical images. This paper proposes a semi-supervised model, DFCPS, which innovatively incorporates the Fixmatch concept. This significantly enhances the model's performance and generalizability through data augmentation processing, employing varied strategies for unlabeled data. Concurrently, the model design gives appropriate emphasis to the generation, filtration, and refinement processes of pseudo-labels. The novel concept of cross-pseudo-supervision is introduced, integrating consistency learning with self-training. This enables the model to fully leverage pseudo-labels from multiple perspectives, thereby enhancing training diversity. The DFCPS model is compared with both baseline and advanced models using the publicly accessible Kvasir-SEG dataset. Across all four subdivisions containing different proportions of unlabeled data, our model consistently exhibits superior performance.

description: The large-scale (~ 20') diffuse x-ray background surrounding a sample of quasars observed during ROSAT PSPC pointed observations is studied using a new source-detection algorithm, the scaling-index method. This algorithm, which can identify individual photons as belonging to a source or background, is useful for detecting faint, extended sources in noisy fields. Using this method, we find that, contrary to conclusions drawn by others, there is scant evidence for preferential enhancement of x-ray backgrounds surrounding radio-loud quasars by foreground x-ray emitting clusters of galaxies. Rather, all fluctuations in these backgrounds can be explained by varying levels of emission from a galactic thermal plasma of temperature T ~ 0.14 keV. No difference is observed between the diffuse x-ray backgrounds of radio-loud and radio-quiet quasars.

description: Recently, diffusion models have gained significant attention as a novel set of deep learning-based generative methods. These models attempt to sample data from a Gaussian distribution that adheres to a target distribution, and have been successfully adapted to the reconstruction of MRI data. However, as an unconditional generative model, the diffusion model typically disrupts image coordination because of the consistent projection of data introduced by conditional bootstrap. This often results in image fragmentation and incoherence. Furthermore, the inherent limitations of the diffusion model often lead to excessive smoothing of the generated images. In the same vein, some deep learning-based models often suffer from poor generalization performance, meaning their effectiveness is greatly affected by different acceleration factors. To address these challenges, we propose a novel diffusion model-based MRI reconstruction method, named TC-DiffRecon, which does not rely on a specific acceleration factor for training. We also suggest the incorporation of the MF-UNet module, designed to enhance the quality of MRI images generated by the model while mitigating the over-smoothing issue to a certain extent. During the image generation sampling process, we employ a novel TCKG module and a Coarse-to-Fine sampling scheme. These additions aim to harmonize image texture, expedite the sampling process, while achieving data consistency. Our source code is available at https://github.com/JustlfC03/TC-DiffRecon.

description: This paper describes the technical details and practical implementation of the Mid-Frequency Square Kilometre Array (SKA) phase synchronisation system. Over a four-year period, the system has been tested on metropolitan fibre-optic networks, on long-haul overhead fibre at the South African SKA site, and on existing telescopes in Australia to verify its functional performance. The tests have shown that the system exceed the 1-second SKA coherence loss requirement by a factor 2560, the 60-second coherence loss requirement by a factor of 239, and the 10-minute phase drift requirement by almost five orders-of-magnitude. The paper also reports on tests showing that the system can operate within specification over the all required operating conductions, including maximum fibre link distance, temperature range, temperature gradient, relative humidity, wind speed, seismic resilience, electromagnetic compliance, frequency offset, and other operational requirements.

Mathematical modelling of both chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Acute Myeloid Leukemia for their personalized treatment
Creators: name: Savvopoulos, Symeon Vasileios
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: This work is focused on developing models for two most common leukemia types which affect the different areas of haematopoiesis. These are the Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and the Acute Myeloid Leukemia. The first is a slow progressive disease which affects mostly the elderly and progresses in various tissues in the human body, whereas the second has an aggressive nature which progresses in the bone marrow. Our developed physiologically relevant models for both diseases are tested in hypothetical and semi-real patients with or without applied treatment and sensitivity analysis was performed for both. This kind of approach is still on the trial phase and is based mostly on data published in the literature. In Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, two different models were developed. These models approximate the growth and the metastasis of cells within the human body. The former contained time delay differential equations (TDDE) with empirical terms and the latter described the disease with population balance models (PBMs) which use data mostly measurable from experiments. The most critical parameters for both models were identified by sensitivity analysis. The standard treatment protocol in CLL was also applied in a semi-hypothetical patient. In Acute Myeloid Leukemia, the disease investigation was performed in different patients with multiclonal growth. In this model, the pharmacokinetics and the pharmacodynamics were directly connected because this disease is aggressive. Sensitivity analysis estimated the most important parameters under different treatment doses and protocols. Apart from the cancerous clonal growth, the neutrophil dynamic model was used in order to approximate the neutrophils in the peripheral blood in treated patients. This was seen to be affected by the growth of clones in the bone marrow. We suggest future efforts should be focussed on incorporating patient biological characteristics, like clonal evolution, clonal interactions and interactions between the clones and their microenvironment. The incorporation of the disease biological characteristics will validate our work, improve the model predictability and achieve efficient treatment protocols minimizing the life-threatening effects that chemotherapy has in patients. Last but not least, developing validated and flexible mathematical models for the most common leukemia types, can be used for drug development purposes that would allow promising and more effective therapies in the future than the standard treatment protocols used nowadays.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We observed the large and faint planetary nebula (PN) around IN Com in H-alpha and [NII] light with a coronagraphic CCD device on the Wise Observatory reflector blocking the light from the central star. Our goal was to provide a second image of the object with which to confirm the features seen in the only published photograph from the paper reporting the discovery of this object. The nebula is extremely faint, but a combination of images totalling ~one and a half hours of exposure shows it fairly well. A novel image processing algorithm has been applied to the noisy image in order to reveal faint extended details of the images. The algorithm is based on a non-linear self-adaptive filter applied to the wavelet transform of the image. The nebula is not round or elliptical, but shows a two-lobed and possibly three-lobed morphology, as well as a peculiar hole-like feature East of the central star. There is definite East-West and slightly less definite North-South asymmetry.

description: We present spectral and timing properties of the newly discovered X-ray transient source, MAXI J1535-571, which is believed to be a Galactic X-ray binary containing a black hole candidate (BHC) as the primary object. After its discovery on 2017 Sep. 2, it has been monitored regularly in multi-wavelength bands by several satellites. We use archival data of Swift (XRT and BAT) and MAXI (GSC) satellite instruments to study accretion flow dynamics of the source during the outburst. During its outburst, the source became very bright in the sky with a maximum observed flux of $5$~Crab in the $2-10$~keV GSC band. Similar to other transient BHCs, it also shows signatures of low frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) during the outburst. Spectral data of different instruments are fitted with the transonic flow solution based two-component advective flow (TCAF) model fits file to find the direct accretion flow parameters. Evolution of spectral states and their transitions are understood from the model fitted physical flow parameters and nature of QPOs. We also estimate probable mass of the black hole from our spectral analysis as $7.9-9.9~M_\odot$ or $8.9\pm1.0~M_\odot$.

Simple two-stage algorithms for fitting hierarchies of complex models with applications in astrophysics
Creators: name: Si, Shijing
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Hierarchical models are one of the most efficient and principled techniques to estimate the parameters of each object in a population. In astrophysics, we often aim to estimate a set of parameters for each of a number of objects in a population, which motivates the application of hierarchical models. However, fully modelling a population of objects within a hierarchical model re- quires substantial computational investment and often specialised computer code (black-box), especially for complicated problems. In this study, we develop novel methods to conveniently obtain the improved estimates available under a hierarchi- cal model. While taking advantage of the existing code for case-by-case analyses, our methods simultaneously estimate parameters of the individual objects and parameters that describe their population distribution. There are many possible applications of hierarchical models in astrophysics. In this research we deploy our novel computational algorithms to three projects: the determination of distance modulus to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the precise estimates of a group of Galactic halo white dwarfs (WDs), the reliable estimates of the initial-final mass relations (IFMRs). These three circumstances correspond to the applications of Bayesian hierarchical models to more precise determination of a common parameter, a set of parameters of one kind and a set of functions of one kind, respectively. The main contribution of this work lies in the last two–WDs and IFMRs–projects, which are built upon a few computer models. Our innovation is to fold these complex computer-based astrophysical models into a Bayesian hierarchical model that allows us to simultaneously fit individual models for multiple stars or even multiple clus- ters of stars to obtain estimators with superior statistical properties (e.g., reduced mean squared errors). Our easy-to-implement computational algorithms make these computationally challenging tasks tractable via taking advantage of case-by-case fits, which are potentially useful to many projects in other areas. Our contribution is mainly on the statistical side and all astronomical projects are meant to be testbeds for proofs of concept of my new algorithms. Our analyses are preliminary in the astronomy side, and all the astronomical results are not definitive.

Hypothalamic control of body temperature and sleep
Creators: name: Harding, Edward
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: The role of sleep is not understood but it is essential for life. The sleep cycle is highly correlated to the circadian control of core temperature which, in mammals, is lower during the sleep phase. General anaesthetics induce sedation with sleep-like features, but this often comes with hypothermia. The preoptic hypothalamus seems key to the successful regulation of sleep and thermoregulation. We hypothesise a convergence of neuronal circuits that regulate sleep and temperature regulation in the preoptic area. These may also form a neuronal target for general anaesthetics. Using a pharmacogenetics technique called TetTagging it is possible to label neuronal circuits that respond to specific stimuli and then reactivate them later using a drug called clozapine N-oxide. I have used this technique to label neurons involved in the response to skin warming and used the reactivation to investigate the role of this circuit in sleep. I have also developed techniques to manipulate neuronal circuits through cooling to aid this investigation. By measuring EEG and core temperature, I found that recapitulation of activity in these warm-sensitive circuits induces strong delta oscillations, similar to those of natural sleep, followed by profound hypothermia more closely resembling the effects of general anaesthetics. A reduction in theta power was slower than the onset of delta and so may indicate an increase in sleep pressure. Following hypothermia, this state more closely resembled consolidated NREM, with REM sleep almost entirely absent. Immunohistochemistry has ruled out a GABAergic or cholinergic identity for these neurons.
A Gamma Ray Burst with a 220 Microsecond Rise Time and a Sharp Spectral Cutoff

description: The Gamma Ray Burst GRB920229 has four extreme and unprecedented properties; a rise in brightness with an e-folding time scale of $220 \pm 30 μs$, a fall in brightness with an e-folding time scale of $400 \pm 100 μs$, a large change in spectral shape over a time of $768 μs$, and a sharp spectral cutoff to high energies with $ΔE/E = 18 %$. The rapid changes occur during a spike in the light curve which was seen 0.164 s after the start of the burst. The spectrum has a peak $νF_ν$ at 200 keV with no significant flux above 239 keV, although the cutoff energy shifts to less than 100 keV during the decay of the spike. These numbers can be used to place severe limits on fireball models of bursts. The thickness of the energy production region must be smaller than $\sim 66 km$, ejected shells must have a dispersion of the Lorentz factor of less than roughly 1% along a particular radius, and the angular size of the radiation emission region is of order 1 arc-minute as viewed from the burst center. The physical mechanism that caused the sharp spectral cutoff has not been determined.

description: HSP47 (heat shock protein 47) is a collagen-specific molecular chaperone that is essential for procollagen folding and function. Previous studies have shown that HSP47 binding requires a critical Arg residue at the Y position of the (Gly-Xaa-Yaa) repeats of collagen; however, the exact binding sites of HSP47 on native collagens are not fully defined. To address this, we mapped the HSP47 binding sites on collagens through an ELISA binding assay using collagen toolkits, synthetic collagen peptides covering the entire amino acid sequences of collagen types II and III assembled in triple-helical conformation. Our results showed that HSP47 binds to only a few of the GXR motifs in collagen, with most of the HSP47 binding sites identified located near the N-terminal part of the triple-helical region. Molecular modelling and binding energy calculation indicated that residues flanking the key Arg in the collagen sequence also play an important role in defining the high-affinity HSP47 binding site of collagen. Based on this binding mode of HSP47 to collagen, virtual screening targeting both the Arg binding site and its neighboring area on the HSP47 surface, and a subsequent bioassay, we identified two novel compounds with blocking activity towards HSP47 binding of collagen. Overall, our study revealed the native HSP47 binding sites on collagen and provided novel information for the design of small-molecule inhibitors of HSP47.
Spatial evaluation of the effects of human, livestock and wildlife systems on infectious disease emergence: implications for surveillance and management
Creators: name: Hou, Chia Yi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Emergence of zoonotic infectious diseases has health, social, and economic implications for human populations. Hosts and reservoirs for zoonoses are diverse and come from different taxa. Areas of high biodiversity may be sources for new pathogens for humans. Understanding of spatial and temporal patterns of where interactions may occur between human and animal populations will give insights for surveillance and planning for eventual outbreaks. The research aims of this dissertation were to assess spatially explicit emerging infectious disease (EID) probabilities at the national level across the globe, assess emergency funding resource gaps, investigate routes for through which air travel facilitates disease transfer, and project changes in the probabilities of EID occurrence events relating to changes in livestock density in Africa through 2050.

description: Although blockchain technology was first introduced in 2008 and materialised in 2009, the early usage of blockchain were mainly limited to financial technologies, particularly cryptocurrencies. Later, blockchain became a widespread emerging technology, utilised in multifaceted sectors and applications. In fact, various new and innovative application of blockchain and distributed ledger technologies are still continuously being researched and explored. On the other hand, smart-contracts were first introduced in 1990s, however, it did not gain enough popularity until being integrated with blockchain technologies lately. The duo lately been seen as the key to many innovations in various industries and sectors. So, we took data from 1445 blockchain-related patent documents and tried to map out the historical and current trends in patenting activities in the blockchain field. This helps us get a better grasp of how blockchain technologies are evolving and being tracked. In addition to serving as an indicator of science and technology growth, patents are also used to judge the research potential and development of a particular technology.

description: We explain how to perform topological twisting of supersymmetric field theories in the language of factorization algebras. Namely, given a supersymmetric factorization algebra with a choice of a topological supercharge we construct an algebra over the operad of little disks. We also explain the role of the twisting homomorphism allowing us to construct an algebra over the operad of framed little disks. Finally, we give a complete classification of topological supercharges and twisting homomorphisms in dimensions $1$ through $10$.

description: The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a promising predictive and prognostic factor in breast cancer. We investigated its ability to predict disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with luminal A- or luminal B-HER2-negative breast cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Pre-treatment complete blood cell counts from 168 consecutive patients with luminal breast cancer were evaluated to assess NLR. The study population was stratified into NLRlow or NLRhigh according to a cut-off value established by receiving operator curve (ROC) analysis. Data on additional pre- and post-treatment clinical-pathological characteristics were also collected. Kaplan–Meier curves, log-rank tests, and Cox proportional hazards models were used for statistical analyses. Patients with pre-treatment NLRlow showed a significantly shorter DFS (HR: 6.97, 95% CI: 1.65–10.55, p = 0.002) and OS (HR: 7.79, 95% CI: 1.25–15.07, p = 0.021) compared to those with NLRhigh. Non-ductal histology, luminal B subtype, and post-treatment Ki67 ≥ 14% were also associated with worse DFS (p = 0.016, p = 0.002, and p = 0.001, respectively). In a multivariate analysis, luminal B subtype, post-treatment Ki67 ≥ 14%, and NLRlow remained independent prognostic factors for DFS, while only post-treatment Ki67 ≥ 14% and NLRlow affected OS. The present study provides evidence that pre-treatment NLRlow helps identify women at higher risk of recurrence and death among patients affected by luminal breast cancer treated with NACT.

description: Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are the most abundant immune cells in the uterine mucosa both before and during pregnancy. Circumstantial evidence suggests they play important roles in regulating placental development but exactly how they contribute to the successful outcome of pregnancy is still unclear. Uterine ILCs (uILCs) include subsets of tissue-resident natural killer (NK) cells and ILCs, and until recently the phenotype and functions of uILCs were poorly defined. Determining the specific roles of each subset is intrinsically challenging because of the rapidly changing nature of the tissue both during the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) and high dimensional flow and mass cytometry approaches have recently been used to analyse uILC populations in the uterus in both humans and mice. This detailed characterisation has significantly changed our understanding of the heterogeneity within the uILC compartment. It will also enable key clinical questions to be addressed including whether specific uILC subsets are altered in infertility, miscarriage and pregnancy disorders such as foetal growth restriction and pre-eclampsia. Here, we summarise recent advances in our understanding of the phenotypic and functional diversity of uILCs in non-pregnant endometrium and first trimester decidua, and review how these cells may contribute to successful placental development.
Collapsars - Gamma-Ray Bursts and Explosions in "Failed Supernovae"

description: Using a two-dimensional hydrodynamics code (PROMETHEUS), we study the continued evolution of rotating massive helium stars whose iron core collapse does not produce a successful outgoing shock, but instead forms a black hole. We study the formation of a disk, the associated flow patterns, and the accretion rate for disk viscosity parameter, alpha ~ 0.001 and 0.1. For the standard 14 solar mass model the average accretion rate for 15 s is 0.07 solar masses per second and the total energy deposited along the rotational axes by neutrino annihilation is (1 - 14) x 10**51 erg, depending upon the evolution of the Kerr parameter and uncertain neutrino efficiencies. Simulated deposition of this energy in the polar regions results in strong relativistic outflow - jets beamed to about 1.5% of the sky. The jets remain highly focused, and are capable of penetrating the star in 5 - 10 s. After the jet breaks through the surface of the star, highly relativistic flow can commence. Because of the sensitivity of the mass ejection and jets to accretion rate, angular momentum, and disk viscosity, and the variation of observational consequences with viewing angle, a large range of outcomes is possible ranging from bright GRBs like GRB 971214 to faint GRB-supernovae like SN 1998bw. X-ray precursors are also possible as the jet first breaks out of the star. While only a small fraction of supernovae make GRBs, we predict that all GRBs longer than a few seconds will make supernovae similar to SN 1998bw. However, hard, energetic GRBs shorter than a few seconds will be difficult to make in this model.

description: BackgroundPhysical activity is associated with a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease but limited evidence exists for the sustained promotion of increased physical activity within diabetes prevention trials. The aim of the study was to investigate the long-term effectiveness of the Walking Away programme, an established group-based behavioural physical activity intervention with pedometer use, when delivered alone or with a supporting mHealth intervention.MethodsThose at risk of diabetes (nondiabetic hyperglycaemia) were recruited from primary care, 2013-2015, and randomised to (1) Control (information leaflet); (2) Walking Away (WA), a structured group education session followed by annual group-based support; or (3) Walking Away Plus (WAP), comprising WA annual group-based support and an mHealth intervention delivering tailored text messages supported by telephone calls. Follow-up was conducted at 12 and 48 months. The primary outcome was accelerometer measured ambulatory activity (steps/day). Change in primary outcome was analysed using analysis of covariance with adjustment for baseline, randomisation and stratification variables.ResultsOne thousand three hundred sixty-six individuals were randomised (median age = 61 years, ambulatory activity = 6638 steps/day, women = 49%, ethnic minorities = 28%). Accelerometer data were available for 1017 (74%) individuals at 12 months and 993 (73%) at 48 months. At 12 months, WAP increased their ambulatory activity by 547 (97.5% CI 211, 882) steps/day compared to control and were 1.61 (97.5% CI 1.05, 2.45) times more likely to achieve 150 min/week of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Differences were not maintained at 48 months. WA was no different to control at 12 or 48 months. Secondary anthropometric and health outcomes were largely unaltered in both intervention groups apart from small reductions in body weight in WA (~ 1 kg) at 12- and 48-month follow-up.ConclusionsCombining a pragmatic group-based intervention with text messaging and telephone support resulted in modest changes to physical activity at 12 months, but changes were not maintained at 48 months.Trial registrationISRCTN 83465245 (registered on 14 June 2012).
