description: In this paper, we present a fully automatic brain tumor segmentation and classification model using a Deep Convolutional Neural Network that includes a multiscale approach. One of the differences of our proposal with respect to previous works is that input images are processed in three spatial scales along different processing pathways. This mechanism is inspired in the inherent operation of the Human Visual System. The proposed neural model can analyze MRI images containing three types of tumors: meningioma, glioma, and pituitary tumor, over sagittal, coronal, and axial views and does not need preprocessing of input images to remove skull or vertebral column parts in advance. The performance of our method on a publicly available MRI image dataset of 3064 slices from 233 patients is compared with previously classical machine learning and deep learning published methods. In the comparison, our method remarkably obtained a tumor classification accuracy of 0.973, higher than the other approaches using the same database.

description: We describe here a framework for a certain class of multiscale likelihood factorizations wherein, in analogy to a wavelet decomposition of an L^2 function, a given likelihood function has an alternative representation as a product of conditional densities reflecting information in both the data and the parameter vector localized in position and scale. The framework is developed as a set of sufficient conditions for the existence of such factorizations, formulated in analogy to those underlying a standard multiresolution analysis for wavelets, and hence can be viewed as a multiresolution analysis for likelihoods. We then consider the use of these factorizations in the task of nonparametric, complexity penalized likelihood estimation. We study the risk properties of certain thresholding and partitioning estimators, and demonstrate their adaptivity and near-optimality, in a minimax sense over a broad range of function spaces, based on squared Hellinger distance as a loss function. In particular, our results provide an illustration of how properties of classical wavelet-based estimators can be obtained in a single, unified framework that includes models for continuous, count and categorical data types.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The optimal management of the commercially important, but over-exploited pelagic tunas, albacore (Thunnus alalunga Bonn., 1978) and Atlantic bluefin tuna (T. thynnus L., 1758), requires a better understanding of population structure than has been provided by previous molecular methods. Despite numerous studies of both species, their population structures remain controversial. This study reports the development of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in albacore and Atlantic bluefin tuna (BFT) and the application of these SNPs to survey genetic variability across the entire geographic ranges of these tunas
title: Preparation of Bimetallic Catalysts by Surface Organometallic Chemistry
Creators: name: Marshall, Robert
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1999

description: Surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC) has been used to prepare a range of bimetallic catalysts. This work reports, for the first time, the preparation of alumina supported palladium iron and platinum iron catalysts by reaction of ferrocene with a reduced monometalhc catalyst. In addition, alumina supported and carbon supported platinum tin and alumina supported palladium tin catalysts were prepared using this technique using tetrabutyl tin. The catalysts were characterised using a range of techniques to determine the extent of the interaction between the two metals. Hydrogen chemisorption, TEM, EDX and cyclic voltammetry provide evidence of such an interaction and indicate that the catalysts consist of bimetallic particles. This provides evidence for a selective reaction between the organometallic precursor and the parent metal. Mossbauer, EPR and EXAFS spectroscopies have been used to examine the effect of different reducing and oxidising environments on the structure of a PdFe catalyst. These suggest, that in air, the particles exist as palladium with an overlayer of FeOx. The alumina supported catalysts were tested for the gas phase catalytic hydrogenation of 1,3-butadiene and crotonaldehyde. The results show, that the addition of the second metal, can modify the activity and selectivity of the parent catalyst towards these reactions, in particular PtFe which shows an enhanced activity for both. Comparison of the range of carbon supported platinum tin catalysts with different loadings towards the electrooxidation of carbon monoxide has shown a significant effect on the addition of a quarter of a monolayer coverage of tin. On further addition of tin, there is little further change in the electrochemical properties or indeed the number of exposed platinum sites. Comparison of a catalyst prepared using SOMC and another, of similar loading, prepared using hydrolysis/precipitation suggests that the SOMC exhibits a greater level of control over the electrocatalytic properties.

Λόγω της δημοφιλίας του IoT στον κόσμο, η ανάπτυξη του σε πολλούς τομείς δημιούργησε μια ψευδή αίσθηση ασφάλειας και πρόσβασης. Το Διαδίκτυο των Αντικειμένων είναι ένας όρος που αναφέρεται στη συνδεσιμότητα των καθημερινών μας αντικειμένων. Ωστόσο, το IoT είναι ευάλωτο σε κινδύνους ασφάλειας και απορρήτου, λόγω της ποικιλίας ρυθμίσεων και της έλλειψης προτύπων. Επειδή οι συνέπειες των δυσλειτουργιών συστημάτων IoT μπορεί να είναι σοβαρές, η μελέτη και η έρευνα προβλημάτων ασφάλειας στο IoT είναι κρίσιμης σημασίας. Ο πρωταρχικός στόχος της ασφάλειας IoT είναι να προστατεύσει το απόρρητο των χρηστών, να διασφαλίσει υποδομές, δεδομένα και συσκευές IoT καθώς και τη διαθεσιμότητα υπηρεσιών του οικοσυστήματος IoT.

description: IoT has led a modern era of innovation, bringing beneficial changes in our ordinary lives. IoT's real-world spread has made it appear that IoT systems and services are simple to actualize and give a high level of security. The Internet of Things may be a state utilized to portray the gadgets and things we use in our day by day life. In any case, since IoT devices are suspect to security and protection concerns owing to a differences of settings and need of measures, they are not broadly acknowledged as safe. The stakes are high since disappointment within the IoT may cause noteworthy consequences, therefore securing the IoT is necessary. The foremost vital objective of IoT security is to protect the security of clients, protect the IoT architecture, information, and gadgets, and guarantee the accessibility of IoT system administrators. The aim of this thesis is the study of the security of the Internet of Things, as well as the countermeasures to prevent them

Workplace of the Future : Ecosystem of Hackable Spaces

description: In cities today, people seem to work anywhere and everywhere. For knowledge workers, a chair and Wi-Fi are the only necessities. The office has lost its immediate identification with the office as a room or space in a designated building, where all work tasks are carried out, from writing and faxing to attending meetings. Work has become transportable and ubiquitous, almost a state of mind. Like a bubble of pure concentration that one can turn on and off with or without the help of tangible tools, work is where you are. Where does this leave architecture, if the office building and the office itself are in decline? Does this mean we don’t’ need offices anymore? The short answer is No. In fact, it was in this decade that we saw the emergence of small corporate cities such as Google or Facebook headquarters or the Apple campus. Even companies that did not want to pay for office space recognized the importance of collaboration and face to face interaction. This has led to the creation of shared spaces like WeWork which advertises its space as “dynamic environments for creativity, focus, and connection, it’s a movement toward humanizing work”. Although the office building is hardly extinct, its architecture has not changed in the past decade or so. Office building designs are dominated by optimized core-to-perimeter depths, floor plate square footages, LEED certification, and utilization rates. New ideas about sustainability, information technology, flexibility, or trends in work patterns hold little weight. Fortunately, professional offices, tech firms, design industries, and start-ups are among the tenants creating demand for architectural alternatives. I have studied the history of white-collar jobs, workspace, and workplace trends. That research is documented here, along with a design proposal that demonstrates an architectural alternative to conventional office design. The proposed design is not meant as a definitive or singular solution, but as a conceptual strategy that offers new direction based on changing business needs.

description: Air pollution is one of the most important global environmental issues. Taiwan Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is currently using an Air Quality Index (AQI) to measure and monitor its national air quality. The main objective of this study is to assess the air quality per hour every month in Taichung City of Taiwan from 2014 to 2016 based on the nonconformance probability of the AQI index. The nonconformance probability is defined as the probability that a characteristic of interest falls outside of an acceptance region. A lower confidence bound for the nonconformance probability is applied to test whether the AQI index value exceeds a warning threshold, and then the government could issue warnings according to the decision made by such statistical inference. An unbalanced two-way random effects model is presented for fitting the AQI index values. We evaluate three different lower confidence bound construction methods, including a t-based, an adjusted t-based and a generalized pivotal quantity (GPQ) based methods, through a detailed simulation study. Finally, a hybrid method of the t-based and the adjusted t-based estimators is recommended for practical use.

description: $β$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ is a next-generation ultra wide bandgap semiconductor (E$_g$ = 4.8 eV to 4.9 eV) that can be homoepitaxially grown on commercial substrates, enabling next-generation power electronic devices among other important applications. Analyzing the quality of deposited homoepitaxial layers used in such devices is challenging, in part due to the large probing depth in traditional x-ray diffraction (XRD) and also due to the surface-sensitive nature of atomic force microscopy (AFM). Here, a combination of evanescent grazing-incidence skew asymmetric XRD and AFM are investigated as an approach to effectively characterize the quality of homoepitaxial $β$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy at a variety of Ga/O flux ratios. Accounting for both structure and morphology, optimal films are achieved at a Ga/O ratio of $\sim$1.15, a conclusion that would not be possible to achieve by either XRD or AFM methods alone. Finally, fabricated Schottky barrier diodes with thicker homoepitaxial layers are characterized by $J-V$ and $C-V$ measurements, revealing an unintentional doping density of 4.3 $\times$ 10$^{16}$ cm$^{-3}$ - 2 $\times$ 10$^{17}$ cm$^{-3}$ in the epilayer. These results demonstrate the importance of complementary measurement methods for improving the quality of the $β$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ homoepitaxial layers used in power electronic and other devices.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The transfer of novel technologies from research to applied science is key to the successful completion of any policy cycle that advocates the development of technological solutions to address issues within society. To support moves towards sustainable fisheries management, the potential usefulness of novel technologies, in particular DNA analysis, for addressing issues associated with the identification and authentication of traded fish and fish products is now widely recognised. In response to increasing concern over global levels of Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing, a number of research projects have been undertaken in the past five years to enable and demonstrate the use of DNA analysis in fisheries control and enforcement. However until very recently, the transfer of research outputs into applied testing systems has been limited. The EU FP7 project, FishPopTrace, set out to assess and develop a range of novel tools for population assignment of fish belonging to four commercial species (cod, herring, hake and sole). The work concluded in 2011 with a demonstration of how DNA methods generated by the research could be transferred into a forensic testing framework capable of delivering evidence of IUU fishing to enforcement investigations. The UK government environment department, Defra, has since picked up these outputs and is supporting a project to fully transfer DNA methods into validated fisheries identification tools for use by government agencies, the fishing industry and nongovernment bodies. Following an initial stakeholder consultation period, the project is now focussing on the development of SNP genotyping assays for geographic origin identification to support monitoring control and enforcement work This presentation presents an overview of the work being undertaken within this project to advance traceability of fish and fish products.

description: We analyze a class of quantum-critical models, in which momentum integration and the selection of a particular pairing symmetry can be done explicitly, and the competition between non-Fermi liquid and pairing can be analyzed within an effective model with dynamical electron-electron interaction $V(Ω_m)\sim 1/|Ω_m|^γ$ (the $γ$-model). In this paper, the first in the series, we consider the case $T=0$ and $01$, above which superconductivity disappears, and the ground state becomes a non-Fermi liquid.We show that all solutions develop simultaneously once $N$ gets smaller than $N_{cr}$.

description: Three new obscured Milky Way clusters were detected as surface density peaks in the 2MASS point source catalog during our on-going search for hidden globular clusters and massive Arches-like star clusters. One more cluster was discovered serendipitously during a visual inspection of the candidates. The first deep J, H, and Ks imaging of the cluster [IBP2002] CC01 is presented. We estimated a cluster age of ~1-3 Myr, distance modulus of (m-M)0=12.56+-0.08 mag (D=3.5 Kpc), and extinction of AV~7.7 mag. We also derived the initial mass function slope for the cluster: Gamma=-2.23+-0.16. The integration over the initial mass function yielded a total cluster mass M_{total}<=1800+-200Msol. CC01 appears to be a regular, not very massive star cluster, whose formation has probably been induced by the shock front from the nearby HII region Sh2-228.

Remarks.
The collection of Dours was lost, as it was destroyed in a fire (Wood 2023). As such, the location of Dours’ types is usually simple; they are lost. However, A. romandii was described from females from the collection of Lepeletier, and males from Algeria and central France from the collections of Dours and Sichel (Dours 1869). It is almost impossible to know the origin of this male specimen from Algeria that was collected in 1842, but it is old enough to potentially be a syntype of A. romandii. If it was traded from the Paris collection by M. A. Diniz, it could potentially be from the Sichel collection, but at present, this has not been proven. Further study is required before solid conclusions can be drawn.

IUU fishing is pervasive, occurring in all regions of the world; it is found on the high seas, in exclusive economic zones and in near-shore fisheries. It occurs in all countries, both developed and developing, and frequently involves multiple jurisdictions as fish moves from where it was harvested through the value chain and is processed, packaged, offloaded, transported and taken to markets across the globe

description: In 2060, the collapse of the oil industry in Alberta has turned Calgary into a shadow of its former self. The industry’s sharp decline led to soaring vacancy rates amongst the upper tax-bracket demographics, leaving the future of the city to be determined by those most disenfranchised by the economic fallout. The evolution of infrastructure as the primary determinant of urban space has continued globally, but post-oil Calgary has slipped behind the curve. The city’s situation demands more than costly demolitions. The inextricable forces of desire, culture, gender, class, sustenance, ritual, maintenance, technology, and economics driving Calgary and its people are far too complex to be handled by the next “innovative” solution. Previously-established infrastructures which now inhibit the connections they once enabled must be reinvented, to work with the natural forces of the landscape and forge new links within remaining communities. We understand the role of oil in sites of exploration, extraction, corporate business, and consumption - but oil also created a framework for social geography. The memory of industry is intimately connected with place-based identity, and the meanings attached to a place are shaped by the stories told about its past. Spaces that exist at the confluence of social and economic factors are just as much a part of the story of the petroleum industry and what will happen when it’s gone. This thesis creates opportunities for a diversified future through reconstructing the relationship between nature and the culture of a city shaped by submission to the global network of oil.

It is shown that the Wigner function of a solution of the Schroedinger equation with Hamiltonian operator $H = {1/2} (-\I\nabla_x - A(εx))^2 + V_Γ(x) + ϕ(εx)$ propagates along the flow of the semiclassical model of solid states physics up an error of order $ε$. If $ε$-dependent corrections to the flow are taken into account, the error is improved to order $ε^2$. We also discuss the propagation of the Wigner measure. The results are obtained as corollaries of an Egorov type theorem proved in a previous paper (math-ph/0212041).

description: Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία αποτυπώνει την πορεία δημιουργίας της παράστασης «MόNOS, σπουδή περί έρωτος | ένας οδηγός ελευθερίας», μιας παράστασης σε έξι εικόνες-εμπειρίες εμπνευσμένης από το Συμπόσιο του Πλάτωνα και τα Αποσπάσματα του ερωτικού λόγου του Roland Barthes, που παρουσιάστηκε στο πλαίσιο του μεταπτυχιακού προγράμματος σπουδών του Τμήματος Θεάτρου της Σχολής Καλών Τεχνών του Αριστοτελείου Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλονίκης, με κατεύθυνση Σκηνοθεσία – Υποκριτική και θέμα «Αρχαίοι Μύθοι & Σύγχρονο Θέατρο». Στο κείμενο που ακολουθεί παραθέτω, αρχικά, τις βασικές εκδοχές του μυθικού προσώπου του Έρωτα στην αρχαία ελληνική μυθολογία όπως αυτές προκύπτουν από τα διασωθέντα κείμενα της αρχαίας ελληνικής γραμματείας και τα όποια αρχαιολογικά ευρήματα, και στη συνέχεια εστιάζω στην προσέγγιση του Έρωτα από τους δύο συγγραφείς Πλάτωνα και Roland Barthes στα έργα τους Συμπόσιον και Αποσπάσματα του ερωτικού λόγου αντίστοιχα. Έπειτα, παρουσιάζω τη θέση μου περί ατομικής ελευθερίας και έρωτα, και εκθέτω τη μεθοδολογία της δουλειάς μου, αναλύοντας βήμα-βήμα κάθε στάδιο και κάθε επιλογή που συνέθεσε το τελικό αποτέλεσμα. Τέλος, επιχειρώ να κάνω έναν μικρό απολογισμό για το συνολικό εγχείρημα και να οραματιστώ τους μελλοντικούς στόχους της συγκεκριμένης παράστασης καθώς θεωρώ ότι κάθε καλλιτεχνικό έργο που παράγουμε είναι ένας «ζωντανός οργανισμός» που διαρκώς εξελίσσεται και αναδιαμορφώνεται ως προϊόν του εκάστοτε κοινωνικού πλαισίου και της ιστορικής στιγμής
description: This dissertation reflects the course of creation of the play "Mόnos, study of love | a guide to freedom", a performance in six images-experiences inspired by Plato’s Symposium and Roland Barthes’ A Lover's Discourse: Fragments. This art project was presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the MA in “Theatre Performance: History, Theory and Practice” of the School of Drama of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, and especially for the “Acting/Stage course” and the thematic unit "Ancient Myths & Contemporary Theatre". In the following text I, first, outline, the basic versions of the mythical face of Eros in ancient Greek mythology, as they emerge from the surviving texts of the ancient Greek literature and from any archaeological findings. After this, I focus on Plato’s and Barthes’ approaches of Eros in their works Symposium and A Lover's Discourse: Fragments, respectively. Subsequently, I present my own conceptualisation of ‘individual freedom’ and ‘love’, and describe the methods adopted in the present project, providing a detailed analysis of each stage, and justifying my choices. In the end, I endeavour to reflexively review the overall project and envision any potential future directions and goals, since I believe that every artwork constitutes a "living organism" that is constantly being reshaped, negotiated and co-constructed as a socio-cultural and socio-historical product

A quantitative analysis of the chain fountain

description: The chain fountain is an entertaining, counter-intuitive phenomenon. When a chain flows up over the edge of a container and then falls to the ground below, it is observed that the top of the chain rises up above the containers edge. Here the steady-state motion of the fountain is analyzed experimentally and theoretically. Measurements are given for the speeds and heights for three different chains and three different distances from the container to the floor. It is shown theoretically that the distance the chain rises above the container is proportional to the force from the container on the chain. The basic physics behind this force is readily understandable and can be illustrated with simple examples. To quantitatively predict the chain's motion a simple model is developed for how the chain interacts with the container. This model shows that a link lifts-off from the container after rotating by a relatively small angle. The model's predictions agree very will with the measurement for the two ball-chains.

description: We consider a general D-wave superconducting gap function in the presence of coexisting antiferromagnetic (AFM) long-rang order. We find that the D-wave order parameter develops additional nodes without lowering the symmetry of the state due to the interplay of the superconducting and AFM correlations. This AFM correlated D-wave gap has a small gap structure inside the generic D-wave gap. As a result of this additional structure it shows a quite different response to impurities compared to a standard D-wave gap. We calculate the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate $1/T_1$ of this gap in the presence of impurities and discuss the implications for the experiments of some AFM heavy- fermion superconductors and in particular for CeRhIn5.

description: Subject and purpose of work: The aim of the paper is to identify non-economic factors influencing employment in non-governmental organizations in the Subcarpathian Province. Materials and methods: Surveys were conducted in a group of 30 people managing non-governmental organizations. Results: In the Subcarpathian Province, the factors not connected to economy that encourage involvement in the work of non-governmental organisations include education, marital status, labour market activity, gender, religiousness, and moral authority associated with charitable activities. The factors such as age, personal experience of difficult life situations, or observing charity activities done by family members and friends have an insignificant effect on the involvement in the work of nongovernmental entities. Conclusions: The activities of state institutions of social policy whose goal is to increase the participation of citizens in the third sector entities should aim to give them an opportunity of obtaining the highest level of education possible, stable employment in the labour market, as well as creating conditions for families to function properly. Moreover, public institutions should conduct social campaigns to show citizens that working in the third sector enriches their social and personal life.

description: Densities, $ρ$, and speeds of sound, $u$, of 2-propanone + aniline, + N-methylaniline, or + pyridine systems have been measured at (293.15, 298.15 and 303.15) K and atmospheric pressure using a vibrating tube densimeter and sound analyser Anton Paar model DSA-5000. The $ρ$ and $u$ values were used to calculate excess molar volumes, $V^{E}$, and the excess functions at 298.15 K for the speed of sound, $u^{E}$, the thermal expansion coefficient, $α_{p}^{E}$, and for the isentropic compressibility, $κ_{S}^{E}$ at 298.15 K. $V^{E}$ and $κ_{S}^{E}$ are both negative magnitudes and increase in the same sequence: aniline < N-methylaniline < pyridine. The $V^{E}$ and $κ_{S}^{E}$ curves are shifted towards higher mole fractions of 2-propanone. The data haven interpreted assuming strong acetone-amine interactions, and weak structural effects.

description: Η εν λόγω εργασία έχει ως αντικείμενο την προσέγγιση – ανάλυση των μεταναστευτικών ροών και διαρθρώνεται σε έξι μέρη, κάνοντας παράλληλα αναφορά στα γεγονότα της Ειδομένης του 2015, καθώς επίσης και στην πρόσφατη κρίση που σημειώθηκε στις αρχές του 2020 στα χερσαία σύνορα Ελλάδας – Τουρκίας. Στα συγκεκριμένα περιστατικά, στην μεν περίπτωση της Ειδομένης, υπήρξε μια μαζική συγκέντρωση μεταναστών στα σύνορα Κιλκίς - Βόρειας Μακεδονίας, με στόχο να καταφύγουν στις χώρες της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, ενώ δε στην περίπτωση του Έβρου σημειώθηκε μια συντονισμένη προσπάθεια, με την παρακίνηση του Τούρκικου κράτους, να εισέλθουν παράνομοι μετανάστες στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση. Γίνεται μνεία ότι το περιστατικό της Ειδομένης ήταν το γεγονός εκείνο το οποίο αποτέλεσε το έναυσμα ώστε να δημιουργηθούν οι δομές φιλοξενίας προσφύγων στην Ελλάδα, πάνω στις οποίες στηρίχτηκε και το δίκτυο ανάλυσης το οποίο απεικονίζεται στο 5ο Κεφάλαιο. Ακολούθως, γίνεται αναφορά στους προκληθέντες κινδύνους από τη μαζική συσσώρευση μεταναστών, ανάλυση των αιτιών όπου οι πρόσφυγες -μετανάστες αναπτύσσουν τάσεις ριζοσπαστικοποίησης και η εργασία περατώνεται με την απεικόνιση του τρόπου που η Τουρκία «εργαλοιοποίησε» το θέμα του μεταναστευτικού για να πετύχει μια ειδική μεταχείριση στις σχέσεις της με την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση
description: The purpose of this work is the approach - analysis of migration flows and is structured in six parts, while referring to the events of Eidomeni in 2015, as well as the recent crisis that occurred in early 2020 at the land border of Greece - Turkey. In the specific cases, in the case of Eidomeni, there was a mass gathering of immigrants on the border Kilkis - Northern Macedonia, aiming to take refuge in the countries of the European Union, while in the case of Evros a coordinated effort was made, at the instigation of the Turkish state to enter the European Union illegally. It is mentioned that the Eidomeni incident was the fact that was the trigger for the creation of the refugee accommodation structures in Greece, on which the analysis network based on the 5th Chapter was based. Next, reference is made to the dangers posed by the massive influx of migrants, an analysis of the causes where refugee-migrants develop radicalization tendencies, and the work concludes by illustrating how Turkey has "employed" the issue of immigration to its relations with the European Union

description: The coexistence curves of the liquid-liquid equilibria (LLE) for systems of 2-phenoxyethanol (2PhEE) with heptane, octane, cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane or ethylcyclohexane have been determined by the method of the critical opalescence using a laser scattering technique. All the curves show an upper critical solution temperature (UCST), have a rather horizontal top and their symmetry depends on the relative size of the mixture compounds. UCST values are higher for systems with linear alkanes than for solutions including cyclic alkanes. For these mixtures, the UCST increases with the size of the alkyl group attached to the cyclic part of the molecule. It is shown that interactions between alkoxyethanol molecules are stronger when the hydroxyether contains an aromatic group. Data are used to determine the critical exponent for the order parameter mole fraction. Values obtained are consistent with those provided by the Ising model or by the renormalization group theory.
