Häusliche Gewalt

description: Egal in welcher Lebenssituation, Gewalt kann alle Menschen betreffen. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass die Dunkelziffer der Fälle von häuslicher Gewalt hoch ist, da sie oft im Verborgenen geschieht. Besonders häusliche Gewalt gegenüber älteren Menschen wird in der Schweizer Gesellschaft erst seit der Jahrhundertwende thematisiert. Durch die demografische Entwicklung rücken Altersthemen, wie auch die häusliche Gewalt im Alter, vermehrt in den Vordergrund. Mit diesem Wissen haben wir uns für folgende Fragestellung entschieden: «Was ist der Auftrag der Sozialen Arbeit im Bereich der häuslichen Gewalt im Alter?». Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, herauszufinden, in welchen Bereichen die Soziale Arbeit für ältere Personen, ihre Angehörigen und Fachpersonen Hilfestellungen leisten kann und welche Präventions-, Erkennungs- und Interventionsmassnahmen für häusliche Gewalt im Alter bestehen. Die vorliegende Arbeit besteht aus einem theoretischen sowie einem empirischen Teil. Nebst der Literatur aus dem theoretischen Teil, tragen wir zur Beantwortung der Fragestellung zusätzliche Informationen aus den durchgeführten Interviews mit Fachpersonen zusammen. Zu Beginn der Arbeit führen wir ins Thema ein und definieren verschiedene zentrale Begriffe. Weiter erläutern wir im Theorieteil die Gewaltformen, -ursachen und die Auswirkungen von Gewalt. Die vielschichtigen Aufgaben von Sozialarbeiterinnen und Sozialarbeitern in der Arbeit mit älteren Menschen sowie die bestehenden Präventions-, Interventions- und Erkennungsmassnahmen werden erläutert. Der empirische Teil besteht aus der Datenerhebung und -auswertung nach Kuckartz (2016) sowie den zusammengestellten Befragungsergebnissen. Aus den Interviews und unserem theoretischen Teil geht hervor, dass die Arbeitsfelder und Aufgabenbereiche der Sozialen Arbeit mit älteren Menschen sehr vielschichtig und breit sind. Aus den Ergebnissen können folgende Schlüsse zum Thema häusliche Gewalt im Alter gezogen werden: a) Beraterische Tätigkeiten sind ein bedeutsamer Aufgabenbereich der Sozialarbeiterinnen und Sozialarbeiter. b) Durch umfangreiche Öffentlichkeitsarbeit versuchen einzelne Organisationen auf das Thema aufmerksam zu machen und die Gesellschaft zu sensibilisieren. c) Die interdisziplinäre und organisationsübergreifende Vernetzung ist essenziell für die ganzheitliche Unterstützung der Betroffenen. In den Interviews wurde vermehrt die schwere Erreichbarkeit von älteren Menschen angesprochen. Entsprechend sehen wir, als eine Schlussfolgerung für die Soziale Arbeit und als Ausblick für weitere Forschungsfelder, den Auftrag, Wege zu finden, wie ältere Menschen besser erreicht werden können. Um Gewalt zu verhindern und zu minimieren, soll die Soziale Arbeit weiterhin auf die Thematik aufmerksam machen und die bestehenden Hindernisse, um sich Hilfe zu holen, abbauen.

description: Pandemic outbreaks of viruses such as influenza virus or SARS-CoV-2 are associated with high morbidity and mortality and thus pose a massive threat to global health and economics. Physiologically relevant models are needed to study the viral life cycle, describe the pathophysiological consequences of viral infection, and explore possible drug targets and treatment options. While simple cell culture-based models do not reflect the tissue environment and systemic responses, animal models are linked with huge direct and indirect costs and ethical questions. Ex vivo platforms based on tissue explants have been introduced as suitable platforms to bridge the gap between cell culture and animal models. We established a murine lung tissue explant platform for two respiratory viruses, influenza A virus (IAV) and SARS-CoV-2. We observed efficient viral replication, associated with the release of inflammatory cytokines and the induction of an antiviral interferon response, comparable to ex vivo infection in human lung explants. Endolysosomal entry could be confirmed as a potential host target for pharmacological intervention, and the potential repurposing potentials of fluoxetine and interferons for host-directed therapy previously seen in vitro could be recapitulated in the ex vivo model.

description: We investigated Favipiravir (FPV) efficacy in mild cases of COVID-19 without pneumonia and its effects towards viral clearance, clinical condition, and risk of COVID-19 pneumonia development. PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2-infected patients without pneumonia were enrolled (2:1) within 10 days of symptomatic onset into FPV and control arms. The former received 1800 mg FPV twice-daily (BID) on Day 1 and 800 mg BID 5-14 days thereafter until negative viral detection, while the latter received only supportive care. The primary endpoint was time to clinical improvement, defined by a National Early Warning Score (NEWS) of ≤1. 62 patients (41 female) comprised the FPV arm (median age: 32 years, median BMI: 22 kg/m²) and 31 patients (19 female) comprised the control arm (median age: 28 years, median BMI: 22 kg/m²). The median time to sustained clinical improvement, by NEWS, was 2 and 14 days for FPV and control arms respectively (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of 2.77, 95% CI 1.57-4.88, P < 0.001). The FPV arm also had significantly higher likelihoods of clinical improvement within 14 days after enrolment by NEWS (79% vs 32% respectively, P < 0.001), particularly female patients (aOR 6.35, 95% CI 1.49-27.07, P < 0.001). 8 (12.9%) and 7 (22.6%) patients in FPV and control arms developed mild pneumonia at a median (range) of 6.5 (1-13) and 7 (1-13) days after treatment, respectively (P = 0.316). All recovered well without complications. We can conclude that early treatment of FPV in symptomatic COVID-19 patients without pneumonia was associated with faster clinical improvement.

description: In this paper, we study resource allocation algorithm design for multi-user orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) in mobile edge computing (MEC) systems. To meet the stringent end-to-end delay and reliability requirements of URLLC MEC systems, we propose joint uplink-downlink resource allocation and finite blocklength transmission. Furthermore, we employ a partial time overlap between the uplink and downlink frames to minimize the end-to-end delay, which introduces a new time causality constraint. The proposed resource allocation algorithm is formulated as an optimization problem for minimization of the total weighted power consumption of the network under a constraint on the number of URLLC user bits computed within the maximum allowable computation time, i.e., the end-to-end delay of a computation task. Despite the non-convexity of the formulated optimization problem, we develop a globally optimal solution using a branch-and-bound approach based on discrete monotonic optimization theory. The branch-and-bound algorithm minimizes an upper bound on the total power consumption until convergence to the globally optimal value. Furthermore, to strike a balance between computational complexity and performance, we propose two efficient suboptimal algorithms based on successive convex approximation and second-order cone techniques. Our simulation results reveal that the proposed resource allocation algorithm design facilitates URLLC in MEC systems, and yields significant power savings compared to three baseline schemes. Moreover, our simulation results show that the proposed suboptimal algorithms offer different trade-offs between performance and complexity and attain a close-to-optimal performance at comparatively low complexity.

description: The present study was carried out to examine physiological arousal modulation (heart activity and skin conductance, across baseline and cognitive tasks, in females with fragile X or Turner syndrome and a comparison group of females with neither syndrome. Relative to the comparison group, for whom a greater increase in skin conductance was associated with poor arithmetic performance and less risk taking behavior, females with fragile X displayed a minimal increase in heart activity that was nevertheless associated with poor performance on mental arithmetic. In contrast, no arousal–cognitive performance relationship emerged for the group with Turner syndrome. Taken together, our findings suggest that distinct profiles of arousal modulation might be associated with cognitive deficits in these syndrome populations.

description: We study the problem of the efficient estimation of the jumps for stochastic processes. We assume that the stochastic jump process $(X_t)_{t\in[0,1]}$ is observed discretely, with a sampling step of size $1/n$. In the spirit of Hajek's convolution theorem, we show some lower bounds for the estimation error of the sequence of the jumps $(ΔX_{T_k})_k$. As an intermediate result, we prove a LAMN property, with rate $\sqrt{n}$, when the marks of the underlying jump component are deterministic. We deduce then a convolution theorem, with an explicit asymptotic minimal variance, in the case where the marks of the jump component are random. To prove that this lower bound is optimal, we show that a threshold estimator of the sequence of jumps $(ΔX_{T_k})_k$ based on the discrete observations, reaches the minimal variance of the previous convolution theorem.

A Case for Partitioned Bloom Filters

description: In a partitioned Bloom Filter the $m$ bit vector is split into $k$ disjoint $m/k$ sized parts, one per hash function. Contrary to hardware designs, where they prevail, software implementations mostly adopt standard Bloom filters, considering partitioned filters slightly worse, due to the slightly larger false positive rate (FPR). In this paper, by performing an in-depth analysis, first we show that the FPR advantage of standard Bloom filters is smaller than thought; more importantly, by studying the per-element FPR, we show that standard Bloom filters have weak spots in the domain: elements which will be tested as false positives much more frequently than expected. This is relevant in scenarios where an element is tested against many filters, e.g., in packet forwarding. Moreover, standard Bloom filters are prone to exhibit extremely weak spots if naive double hashing is used, something occurring in several, even mainstream, libraries. Partitioned Bloom filters exhibit a uniform distribution of the FPR over the domain and are robust to the naive use of double hashing, having no weak spots. Finally, by surveying several usages other than testing set membership, we point out the many advantages of having disjoint parts: they can be individually sampled, extracted, added or retired, leading to superior designs for, e.g., SIMD usage, size reduction, test of set disjointness, or duplicate detection in streams. Partitioned Bloom filters are better, and should replace the standard form, both in general purpose libraries and as the base for novel designs.

description: We study the possibility of asymmetric transmission induced by a non-Hermitian scattering center embedded in a one-dimensional waveguide, motivated by the aim of realizing quantum diode in a non-Hermitian system. It is shown that a $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetric non-Hermitian scattering center always has symmetric transmission although the dynamics within the isolated center can be unidirectional, especially at its exceptional point. We propose a concrete scheme based on a flux-controlled non-Hermitian scattering center, which comprises a non-Hermitian triangular ring threaded by an Aharonov-Bohm flux. The analytical solution shows that such a complex scattering center acts as a diode at the resonant energy level of the spectral singularity, exhibiting perfect unidirectionality of the transmission. The connections between the phenomena of the asymmetric transmission and reflectionless absorption are also discussed.

description: Epidemiologists model the dynamics of epidemics in order to propose control strategies based on pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions (contact limitation, lock down, vaccination, etc). Hand-designing such strategies is not trivial because of the number of possible interventions and the difficulty to predict long-term effects. This task can be cast as an optimization problem where state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms such as deep reinforcement learning, might bring significant value. However, the specificity of each domain -- epidemic modelling or solving optimization problem -- requires strong collaborations between researchers from different fields of expertise. This is why we introduce EpidemiOptim, a Python toolbox that facilitates collaborations between researchers in epidemiology and optimization. EpidemiOptim turns epidemiological models and cost functions into optimization problems via a standard interface commonly used by optimization practitioners (OpenAI Gym). Reinforcement learning algorithms based on Q-Learning with deep neural networks (DQN) and evolutionary algorithms (NSGA-II) are already implemented. We illustrate the use of EpidemiOptim to find optimal policies for dynamical on-off lock-down control under the optimization of death toll and economic recess using a Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Removed (SEIR) model for COVID-19. Using EpidemiOptim and its interactive visualization platform in Jupyter notebooks, epidemiologists, optimization practitioners and others (e.g. economists) can easily compare epidemiological models, costs functions and optimization algorithms to address important choices to be made by health decision-makers.

description: Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have been used to improve both the positive and negative bias-stress stability of amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) bottom gate thin film transistors (TFTs). N-hexylphosphonic acid (HPA) and fluorinated hexylphosphonic acid (FPA) SAMs adsorbed on IGZO back channel surfaces were shown to significantly reduce bias stress turn-on voltage shifts compared to IGZO back channel surfaces with no SAMs. FPA was found to have a lower surface energy and lower packing density than HPA, as well as lower bias stress turn-on voltage shifts. The improved stability of IGZO TFTs with SAMs can be primarily attributed to a reduction in molecular adsorption of contaminants on the IGZO back channel surface and minimal trapping states present with phosphonic acid binding to the IGZO surface.

description: Das schulergänzende Betreuungsangebot im Kanton Zug ist eine institutionelle Bildungs- und Betreuungseinrichtung für Kinder ausserhalb der regulären Unterrichtszeiten. Es bietet eine strukturierte Umgebung, in der Unterricht und ausserunterrichtliche Aktivitäten eng miteinander verbunden sind.

Früher wurde die Kinderbetreuung als private Angelegenheit betrachtet und lag hauptsächlich in der Verantwortung der Familie, insbesondere der Frauen. Mit der Industrialisierung und dem gesellschaftlichen Wandel wurde die Kinderbetreuung jedoch zunehmend institutionalisiert. Bis heute ist ein Ausbau der Einrichtungen zu verzeichnen, dessen Auswirkungen jedoch noch nicht vollständig bekannt sind.

Das Ziel der vorliegenden Bachelorarbeit besteht darin, die Herausforderungen zu ermitteln, mit denen diese Einrichtungen konfrontiert sind. Des Weiteren wird untersucht, auf welche Weise die Sozialpädagogik zur Weiterentwicklung dieser Einrichtungen beitragen kann. Zu diesem Zweck wurde eine qualitative Forschung mittels Leitfadeninterviews durchgeführt, wobei Leitungspersonen eines schulergänzenden Betreuungsangebots als Expert*innen fungierten und befragt wurden.

Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass ein Mangel an personellen, materiellen und zeitlichen Ressourcen besteht. Die Einrichtungen werden an der Erfüllung ihres Auftrags gehindert. Dies verdeutlicht, dass ein Ausbau und weitere Unterstützungsmassnahmen von Gemeinden und Kanton erforderlich sind. Zudem wird ein rechtlicher Nachholbedarf festgestellt, wobei verpflichtende Mindestanforderungen den Auftrag und die Qualität der Einrichtungen sichern sollen.

description: The goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and utility of a group-based cognitive behavioral intervention to improve social-cognitive functioning in adults with high-functioning autism (HFA). We modified the treatment manual of a previously validated intervention, Social Cognition and Interaction Training (SCIT), for optimal use with HFA adults (SCIT-A). We then conducted a pilot study to compare SCIT-A (n = 6) to treatment as usual (TAU) (n = 5) for adults with HFA. Feasibility was supported; attendance was high (92%) and satisfaction reports were primarily positive. Participants in SCIT-A showed significant improvement in theory-of-mind skills and trend level improvements in social communication skills; TAU participants did not show these improvements. Findings indicate SCIT-A shows promise as an intervention for adults with HFA.

A simple scheme for universal linear optics quantum computing with constant experimental complexity using fiber-loops

description: Recently, Motes, Gilchrist, Dowling & Rohde [Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 120501 (2014)] presented a scheme for photonic boson-sampling using a fiber-loop architecture. Here we show that the same architecture can be modified to implement full, universal linear optics quantum computing, in various incarnations. The scheme employs two embedded fiber-loops, a single push-button photon source, three dynamically controlled beamsplitters, and a single time-resolved photo-detector. The architecture has only a single point of interference, and thus may be significantly easier to align than other schemes. The experimental complexity of the scheme is constant, irrespective of the size of the computation, limited only by fiber lengths and their respective loss rates.

description: Data sharing in autism neuroimaging presents scientific, technical, and social obstacles. We outline the desiderata for a data-sharing scheme that combines imaging with other measures of phenotype and with genetics, defines requirements for comparability of derived data and recommendations for raw data, outlines a core protocol including multispectral structural and diffusion-tensor imaging and optional extensions, provides for the collection of prospective, confound-free normative data, and extends sharing and collaborative development not only to data but to the analytical tools and methods applied to these data. A theme in these requirements is the need to preserve creative approaches and risk-taking within individual laboratories at the same time as common standards are provided for these laboratories to build on.

description: Expert search aims to find and rank experts based on a user's query. In academia, retrieving experts is an efficient way to navigate through a large amount of academic knowledge. Here, we study how different distributed representations of academic papers (i.e. embeddings) impact academic expert retrieval. We use the Microsoft Academic Graph dataset and experiment with different configurations of a document-centric voting model for retrieval. In particular, we explore the impact of the use of contextualized embeddings on search performance. We also present results for paper embeddings that incorporate citation information through retrofitting. Additionally, experiments are conducted using different techniques for assigning author weights based on author order. We observe that using contextual embeddings produced by a transformer model trained for sentence similarity tasks produces the most effective paper representations for document-centric expert retrieval. However, retrofitting the paper embeddings and using elaborate author contribution weighting strategies did not improve retrieval performance.

description: Stochastic methods are a crucial area in contemporary climate research and are increasingly being used in comprehensive weather and climate prediction models as well as reduced order climate models. Stochastic methods are used as subgrid-scale parameterizations as well as for model error representation, uncertainty quantification, data assimilation and ensemble prediction. The need to use stochastic approaches in weather and climate models arises because we still cannot resolve all necessary processes and scales in comprehensive numerical weather and climate prediction models. In many practical applications one is mainly interested in the largest and potentially predictable scales and not necessarily in the small and fast scales. For instance, reduced order models can simulate and predict large scale modes. Statistical mechanics and dynamical systems theory suggest that in reduced order models the impact of unresolved degrees of freedom can be represented by suitable combinations of deterministic and stochastic components and non-Markovian (memory) terms. Stochastic approaches in numerical weather and climate prediction models also lead to the reduction of model biases. Hence, there is a clear need for systematic stochastic approaches in weather and climate modelling. In this review we present evidence for stochastic effects in laboratory experiments. Then we provide an overview of stochastic climate theory from an applied mathematics perspectives. We also survey the current use of stochastic methods in comprehensive weather and climate prediction models and show that stochastic parameterizations have the potential to remedy many of the current biases in these comprehensive models.

description: Linear Mixed Effects (LME) models have been widely applied in clustered data analysis in many areas including marketing research, clinical trials, and biomedical studies. Inference can be conducted using maximum likelihood approach if assuming Normal distributions on the random effects. However, in many applications of economy, business and medicine, it is often essential to impose constraints on the regression parameters after taking their real-world interpretations into account. Therefore, in this paper we extend the classical (unconstrained) LME models to allow for sign constraints on its overall coefficients. We propose to assume a symmetric doubly truncated Normal (SDTN) distribution on the random effects instead of the unconstrained Normal distribution which is often found in classical literature. With the aforementioned change, difficulty has dramatically increased as the exact distribution of the dependent variable becomes analytically intractable. We then develop likelihood-based approaches to estimate the unknown model parameters utilizing the approximation of its exact distribution. Simulation studies have shown that the proposed constrained model not only improves real-world interpretations of results, but also achieves satisfactory performance on model fits as compared to the existing model.

description: Goldstone modes emerge associated with spontaneous breakdown of the continuous symmetry in the two-channel Kondo lattice, which describes strongly correlated f-electron systems with a non-Kramers doublet at each site. This paper derives the spectra of these collective modes by the equation of motion method together with the random phase approximation. The diagonal composite order breaks the SU(2) channel symmetry, and the symmetry-restoring collective mode couples with magnetic field. On the other hand, the off-diagonal or superconducting composite order breaks the gauge symmetry of conduction electrons, and the collective mode couples with charge excitations near the zone boundary. At half-filling of the conduction bands, the spectra of these two modes become identical by a shift of the momentum, owing to the SO(5) symmetry of the system. The velocity of each Goldstone mode involves not only the Fermi velocity of conduction electrons but amplitude of the mean field as a multiplying factor. Detection of the Goldstone mode should provide a way to identify the composite order parameter.

description: Interfacial rheology is important for understanding properties such as Pickering emulsion or foam stability. Currently, the response is measured using a probe directly attached to the interface. This can both disturb the interface and is coupled to flow in the bulk phase, limiting its sensitivity. We have developed a contactless interfacial method to perform interfacial shear rheology on liquid/liquid interfaces with no tool attached directly to the interface. This is achieved by shearing one of the liquid phases and measuring the interfacial response via confocal microscopy. Using this method we have measured steady shear material parameters such as interfacial elastic moduli for interfaces with solid-like behaviour and interfacial viscosities for fluid-like interfaces. The accuracy of this method has been verified relative to a double-wall ring geometry. Moreover, using our contactless method we are able to measure lower interfacial viscosities than those that have previously been reported using a double-wall ring geometry. A further advantage is the simultaneous combination of macroscopic rheological analysis with microscopic structural analysis. Our analysis directly visualizes how the interfacial response is strongly correlated to the particle surface coverage and their interfacial assembly. Furthermore, we capture the evolution and irreversible changes in the particle assembly that correspond with the rheological response to steady shear.

description: We present an inelastic neutron scattering study on single-crystalline LiFeAs devoted to the characterization of the incommensurate antiferromagnetic fluctuations at $\mathbf{Q}=(0.5\pmδ, 0.5\mpδ, q_l)$. Time-of-flight measurements show the presence of these magnetic fluctuations up to an energy transfer of 60 meV, while polarized neutrons in combination with longitudinal polarization analysis on a triple-axis spectrometer prove the pure magnetic origin of this signal. The normalization of the magnetic scattering to an absolute scale yields that magnetic fluctuations in LiFeAs are by a factor eight weaker than the resonance signal in nearly optimally Co-doped BaFe$_2$As$_2$, although a factor two is recovered due to the split peaks owing to the incommensurability. The longitudinal polarization analysis indicates weak spin space anisotropy with slightly stronger out-of-plane component between 6 and 12 meV. Furthermore, our data suggest a fine structure of the magnetic signal most likely arising from superposing nesting vectors.

description: When evaluating the effectiveness of a treatment, policy, or intervention, the desired measure of effectiveness may be expensive to collect, not routinely available, or may take a long time to occur. In these cases, it is sometimes possible to identify a surrogate outcome that can more easily/quickly/cheaply capture the effect of interest. Theory and methods for evaluating the strength of surrogate markers have been well studied in the context of a single surrogate marker measured in the course of a randomized clinical study. However, methods are lacking for quantifying the utility of surrogate markers when the dimension of the surrogate grows and/or when study data are observational. We propose an efficient nonparametric method for evaluating high-dimensional surrogate markers in studies where the treatment need not be randomized. Our approach draws on a connection between quantifying the utility of a surrogate marker and the most fundamental tools of causal inference -- namely, methods for estimating the average treatment effect. We show that recently developed methods for incorporating machine learning methods into the estimation of average treatment effects can be used for evaluating surrogate markers. This allows us to derive limiting asymptotic distributions for key quantities, and we demonstrate their good performance in simulation.

description: We report the growth, characterization and superconducting properties of a new amorphous superconductor, RexZr ( x ~ 6 ), in thin film form. Films were grown by pulsed laser deposition with the substrate kept at room temperature. Films with thickness larger than 40 nm showed a superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of 5.9 K. Superconducting properties were measured for films with varying thickness from 120 to 3 nm. The normal state resistance scales linearly with inverse of thickness. The transition temperature, critical field, coherence length, penetration depth and superconducting energy gap changes marginally with decreasing film thickness down to 8 nm. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy and penetration depth measurements provide evidence for a single gap strong coupling s-wave superconductor. Magneto-transport properties indicate a rich magnetic field-temperature phase diagram with the possibility of vortex liquid phases existing over a large fraction of the mixed state.
