The development and use of bioinformatic web applications for infectious disease microbiology
Creators: name: Aanensen, David Michael
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: The ever-increasing generation and submission of DNA sequences, and associated biological data, to publicly available databases demands software for the analysis of the biological meanings held within. The web provides a common platform for the provision of tools enabling the concurrent deposition, visualisation and analysis of data collected by many users from many different locations. Open programmatic web standards allow the development of applications addressing diverse biological questions and, more recently, are providing methods enabling functionality more traditionally associated with desktop software to be provided via the internet. In this work I detail the development and use of web applications addressing different, but not exclusive, areas of infectious disease microbiology. Firstly, an application utilised by a group of researchers (including myself) to undertake a comparative genetic analysis of the capsular biosynthetic locus from serotypes of the pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae is detailed. Secondly, an application widely used by communities of researchers and public health laboratories for the assignment of microbial isolates to strains via the internet: mlst.net is described. Thirdly, I describe a generic electronic taxonomy application for assigning strains to bacterial species, exemplified using sequences from the viridans group streptococci, the taxonomy of which is notoriously difficult to define. Lastly, I describe the use of web mapping tools for molecular epidemiological databases, such as mlst.net, and further detail their application to the European distribution of genotypes of Staphylococcus aureus, to catalogue the global distribution of the emerging amphibian fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis and to provide geocoding tools to encourage users to submit and explore their own data in the geographical context they were collected. Each application has been designed with generality in mind and through reference to user workflows and biological examples, I demonstrate the extensibility and general applicability of current web development methodologies to enable the provision of applications addressing a diversity of biological questions.

description: In this paper we present a model of confinement based on an analogy with the confinement mechanism of the Schwarzschild solution of general relativity. Using recently discovered exact, Schwarzschild-like solutions of the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs equations we study the behaviour of a scalar, SU(2) charged test particle placed in the gauge fields of this solution. We find that this test particle is indeed confined inside the color event horizon of our solution. Additionally it is found that this system is a composite fermion even though there are no fundamental fermions in the original Lagrangian.

Kinetic and mechanistic studies of Pd-catalyzed amination of aryl halides
Creators: name: Ferretti, Antonio
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: The Pd-catalyzed amination of aryl halides (Buchwald-Hartwig amination) has become a versatile and widely used technology to synthesize and produce aromatic amines relevant in pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. The aim of the work presented in this thesis is to achieve a better mechanistic understanding of this reaction. The methodologies used were not traditional and focused on kinetic studies, carried out using in-situ tools, mainly reaction calorimetry. Reactions using different amines have been considered: the kinetic behaviour of a straight-chain primary amine (n-hexylamine) was found to be very different from the kinetics of benzophenone hydrazone. This difference was rationalised by considering the mechanism and by proposing a change in the rate-limiting step. Spectroscopic studies, aimed at determining the catalyst resting state, supported our proposals. We subsequently started studies on the competitive system of two amines and one aryl halide. We found that, surprisingly, the less reactive amine, when in competition, reacted first. This intriguing behaviour was rationalised by considering the Curtin- Hammett principle and by recognizing that in this case selectivity was controlled by relative stability of intermediates, not relative reactivity. This was termed “monopolizing” regime, in contrast to the “major-minor” regime in which the minor but more reactive intermediate produces the major product. Subsequent studies revealed that the benzophenone hydrazone product also binds to the Pd/BINAP catalyst, and, during the hexylamine reaction, inhibits the rate and induces a change in the rate limiting step and catalyst resting state. Reactions using benzophenone imine were then studied. The competitive system of benzophenone imine and benzophenone hydrazone provided an example of a system showing a change from the “monopolizing regime” to the “major-minor” regime. These concepts can be generalized and applied to explain selectivity in other competitive catalytic systems.

A New Source of Stem Cells in Amniotic Fluid and Placenta in 1st Trimester of Pregnancy
Creators: name: Moschidou, Dafni
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are multipotent cells found in fetal, neonatal and adult tissues. Fetal MSC have advantageous characteristics over their adult counterparts, and the regenerative potential of fetal blood MSC has recently been shown in a model of skeletal dysplasia and renal failure. Although fetal blood MSC can be isolated during ongoing pregnancy, the clinical effectiveness of using fetal blood-derived MSC for prenatal fetal cell therapy is constrained by the invasive nature of blood sampling procedure. With amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS), fetal MSC can be obtained with minimal invasion. The aim of this study was to characterise stem cells from 1st trimester amniotic fluid (AF) and placenta by comparing their phenotype with MSC from 1st trimester bone marrow and 2nd trimester AF. Cells from all sources have similar immunophenotype, express pluripotency markers and telomerase, but 1st trimester AF stem cells have higher kinetics. The cells can differentiate into 3 lineages (bone, fat and cartilage), form embryoid bodies (EB) in vitro and can be transfected with high efficiency using non-viral methods. The migration potential of fetal MSC was also investigated using in vitro migration assays, to recapitulate the in vivo mechanisms involved in donor cell recruitment to various tissues and delineate the pathways involved. Fetal blood MSC and AF stem cells were shown to express CXCR4, the stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) receptor, intracellularly but not on the cell membrane and migrate to SDF-1 gradients and to osteoblast cultures derived from the Osteogenesis Imperfecta mouse (oim), but not wild type bones. Pre-stimulation with oim plasma up-regulated CXCR4 and increased chemotaxis to SDF-1 and oim bone. Conclusively, 1st trimester AF and placenta are a new source of stem cells with great potential for future cell therapy applications. Also, initial experiments indicate the importance of the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis for stem cell recruitment to the site of injury.
Chiral kaon dynamics in heavy ion collisions

description: The influence of the chiral mean field on the collective motion of kaons in relativistic heavy ion reactions at SIS energies is investigated. We consider three types of collective motion, i.e. the transverse flow, the out-of-plane flow (squeeze-out) and the radial flow. The kaon dynamics is thereby described with a relativistic mean field as it originates form chiral lagrangiens. For the $K$ mesons inside the nuclear medium we adopt a covariant quasi-particle picture including scalar and vector fields and compare this to a treatment with a static potential like force. The comparison to the available data ($K^+$) measured by FOPI and KaoS strongly favor the existence of an in-medium potential. However, using full covariant dynamics makes it more difficult to describe the data which might indicate that the mean field level is not sufficient for a reliable description of the kaon dynamics.

description: The tendon-driven musculoskeletal humanoid has many benefits that human beings have, but the modeling of its complex muscle and bone structures is difficult and conventional model-based controls cannot realize intended movements. Therefore, a learning control mechanism that acquires nonlinear relationships between joint angles, muscle tensions, and muscle lengths from the actual robot is necessary. In this study, we propose a system which runs the learning control mechanism for a long time to keep the self-body image of the musculoskeletal humanoid correct at all times. Also, we show that the musculoskeletal humanoid can conduct position control, torque control, and variable stiffness control using this self-body image. We conduct a long-time self-body image acquisition experiment lasting 3 hours, evaluate variable stiffness control using the self-body image, etc., and discuss the superiority and practicality of the self-body image acquisition of musculoskeletal structures, comprehensively.

description: Suppose we assume that in gently curved spacetime (a) causality is not violated to leading order (b) the Birkoff theorem holds to leading order and (c) CPT invariance holds. Then we argue that the `mostly empty' universe we observe around us cannot be described by an exact wavefunction $Ψ$. Rather, the weakly coupled particles we see are approximate quasiparticles arising as excitations of a `fuzz'. The `fuzz' {\it does} have an exact wavefunction $Ψ_{fuzz}$, but this exact wavefunction does not directly describe local particles. The argument proceeds by relating the cosmological setting to the black hole information paradox, and then using the small corrections theorem to show the impossibility of an exact wavefunction describing the visible universe.

description: A charge density wave (CDW) is one of the fundamental instabilities of the Fermi surface occurring in a wide range of quantum materials. In dimensions higher than one, where Fermi surface nesting can play only a limited role, the selection of the particular wave vector and geometry of an emerging CDW should in principle be susceptible to controllable manipulation. In this work, we implement a simple method for straining materials compatible with low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S), and use it to strain-engineer new CDWs in 2H-NbSe2. Our STM/S measurements combined with theory reveal how small strain-induced changes in the electronic band structure and phonon dispersion lead to dramatic changes in the CDW ordering wave vector and geometry. Our work unveils the microscopic mechanism of a CDW formation in this system, and can serve as a general tool compatible with a range of spectroscopic techniques to engineer novel electronic states in any material where local strain or lattice symmetry breaking plays a role.

description: We propose and give strong evidence for a duality relating Type II theories on Calabi-Yau spaces and heterotic strings on $K3 \times T^2$, both of which have $N=2$ spacetime supersymmetry. Entries in the dictionary relating the dual theories are derived from an analysis of the soliton string worldsheet in the context of $N=2$ orbifolds of dual $N=4$ compactifications of Type II and heterotic strings. In particular we construct a pairing between Type II string theory on a self-mirror Calabi-Yau space $X$ with $h^{11}= h^{21}= 11$ and a $(4,0)$ background of heterotic string theory on $K3\times T^2$. Under the duality transformation the usual first-quantized mirror symmetry of $X$ becomes a second-quantized mirror symmetry which determines nonperturbative quantum effects. This enables us to compute the exact quantum moduli space. Mirror symmetry of $X$ implies that the low-energy $N=2$ gauge theory is finite, even at enhanced symmetry points. This prediction is verified by direct computation on the heterotic side. Other branches of the moduli space, and corresponding dual pairs which are not finite $N=2$ theories, are connected to this one via black hole condensation.
description: In this slightly revised version, the type II dual of a branch of the heterotic moduli space obtained by hypermultiplet condensation is tentatively identified as a certain Calabi-Yau previously constructed by Klemm and Schimmrigk
Endoplasmic reticulum stress and inhibition of apoptotic caspases regulate the life-span of short-lived plasma cells
Creators: name: Auner, Holger Werner
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: Plasma cells are the terminally differentiated effector cells of the humoral immune system. The majority of plasma cells are short-lived and undergo programmed cell death in the form of apoptosis after few days of intensive immunoglobulin secretion. Despite potentially wide-ranging implications for infection control, auto-immunity, and plasma cell dyscrasias, the mechanisms that govern the initiation and execution of plasma cell apoptosis are poorly understood. In this study, it was found that a sharp increase in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and a substantially decreased tolerance to survive ER stress occur in plasma cells that have completed differentiation and begin to undergo apoptosis. Caspase-12, which has been linked specifically to ER stressinduced apoptosis, is activated during programmed plasma cell death and mediates apoptotic DNA fragmentation and chromatin condensation. In contrast, the major apoptotic effector caspases downstream of the mitochondria become resistant to activation during terminal plasma cell differentiation and are not activated during plasma cell apoptosis. Caspase-3, which acts as the major executioner of apoptosis in most cells, becomes stabilized in its inactive form in plasma cells and human myeloma cell lines. Immunohistochemistry of human lymphoid tissue sections demonstrated that primary plasma cells and myeloma cells undergo spontaneous apoptosis in vivo without activation of caspase-3. Using mouse embryonic fibroblasts double-deficient in caspase-3 and caspase-7, it was found that lack of active executioner caspases substantially delays but does not prevent ER stress-induced apoptosis. These observations suggest that developmentally regulated inhibition of key apoptotic caspases has evolved in plasma cells as a means to delay apoptosis under conditions of ER stress that is linked to immunoglobulin secretion. Overwhelming ER stress ultimately limits the life-span of short-lived plasma cells by inducing apoptosis using alternative mechanism involving caspase-12, which mediates nuclear apoptotic events.

description: We study the kinematics of galaxies within massive clusters, as a probe of the physics of star-formation quenching within clusters. Using N-body simulations, we argue that satellite kinematics provide information about galaxy infall that is complementary to the (instantaneous) spatial distribution of satellites. Comparing the simulation results with measurements of real cluster galaxies, we find evidence that the kinematics of red (quiescent) satellite galaxies are consistent with earlier infall times than that of blue (star-forming) satellites.

description: The body structures of tendon-driven musculoskeletal humanoids are complex, and accurate modeling is difficult, because they are made by imitating the body structures of human beings. For this reason, we have not been able to move them accurately like ordinary humanoids driven by actuators in each axis, and large internal muscle tension and slack of tendon wires have emerged by the model error between its geometric model and the actual robot. Therefore, we construct a joint-muscle mapping (JMM) using a neural network (NN), which expresses a nonlinear relationship between joint angles and muscle lengths, and aim to move tendon-driven musculoskeletal humanoids accurately by updating the JMM online from data of the actual robot. In this study, the JMM is updated online by using the vision of the robot so that it moves to the correct position (Vision Updater). Also, we execute another update to modify muscle antagonisms correctly (Antagonism Updater). By using these two updaters, the error between the target and actual joint angles decrease to about 40% in 5 minutes, and we show through a manipulation experiment that the tendon-driven musculoskeletal humanoid Kengoro becomes able to move as intended. This novel system can adapt to the state change and growth of robots, because it updates the JMM online successively.

description: We investigate nuclear matter properties in the relativistic Brueckner approach. The in-medium on-shell T-matrix is represented covariantly by five Lorentz invariant amplitudes from which we deduce directly the nucleon self-energy. To enforce correct Hartree-Fock results we develop a subtraction scheme which treats the bare nucleon-nucleon potential exactly in accordance to the different types of meson exchanges. For the higher order correlations we employ two different covariant representations in order to study the uncertainty inherent in the approach. The nuclear matter bulk properties are only slightly sensitive on the explicit representation used. However, we obtain new Coester lines for the various Bonn potentials which are shifted towards the empirical region of saturation.

description: HI self absorption (HISA) clouds are clumps of cold neutral hydrogen (HI) visible in front of warm background gas, which makes them ideal places to study the properties of the cold atomic component of the interstellar medium (ISM). The Riegel-Crutcher (R-C) cloud is the most striking HISA feature in the Galaxy. It is one of the closest HISA clouds to us and is located in the direction of the Galactic Centre, which provides a bright background. High-resolution interferometric measurements have revealed the filamentary structure of this cloud, however it is difficult to accurately determine the temperature and the density of the gas without optical depth measurements. In this paper we present new HI absorption observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) against 46 continuum sources behind the Riegel-Crutcher cloud to directly measure the optical depth of the cloud. We decompose the complex HI absorption spectra into Gaussian components using an automated machine learning algorithm. We find 300 Gaussian components, from which 67 are associated with the R-C cloud (0 < v_{LSR} < 10 kms, FWHM < 10 kms). Combining the new HI absorption data with HI emission data from previous surveys we calculate the spin temperature and find it to be between 20 and 80 K. Our measurements uncover a temperature gradient across the cloud with spin temperatures decreasing towards positive Galactic latitudes. We also find three new OH absorption lines associated with the cloud, which support the presence of molecular gas.

Quality assurance of training in diagnostic and therapeutic gastrointestinal endoscopy
Creators: name: Haycock, Adam Vaughan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: Previous evidence has shown that standards of performance in gastrointestinal endoscopy are variable and that there are disparities in training outcomes. Many changes have been made recently to both training and assessment of endoscopy in the UK. However, no prospective methods of evaluating their outcome have been put in place. The aims of this research were to evaluate current and new training processes and assessments in order to quality assure the outcomes and improve the training process. Two audits were undertaken demonstrating improvements in colonoscopy training over 5 years within a single region and in trainee perceptions of their training nationally. Two studies were done investigating a novel computer colonoscopy simulator for assessment of colonoscopic skills, demonstrating excellent construct validity. A multi-centre randomised controlled trial evaluated the use of this simulator in novice training, which was shown to be equivalent to standard bed-side training with a high degree of skills transfer to real-life colonoscopy. Assessment tools for therapeutic endoscopic procedures were developed, validated and used to quality assure a course in therapeutic endoscopy. This course resulted in significant improvements in practical skills for three of the four therapeutic procedures following training. Web-based training and assessment modules for lesion recognition at capsule endoscopy were developed, validated and piloted. This demonstrated the effectiveness of using new training methodologies for skills improvement in this area. A training course for radiographers in virtual colonoscopy was developed and the training evaluated. This demonstrated competence in practical performance and improvements in knowledge and interpretative skill. Finally, two qualitative studies on non-technical skills in endoscopy were undertaken in order to widen the assessment domains from purely knowledge and skill. An interview study provided the basis for development of a nontechnical skills taxonomy and a video-analysis study resulted in production of a marker system for professional behaviour within gastrointestinal endoscopy.
Yangians in Integrable Field Theories, Spin Chains and Gauge-String Dualities
Creators: name: Spill, Fabian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: In the following dissertation, we explore the applicability of Yangian symmetry to various integrable models, in particular, in relation with S-matrices. One of the main themes in this dissertation is that, after a careful study of the mathematics of the symmetry algebras one finds that in an integrable model, one can directly reconstruct S-matrices just from the algebra. It has been known for a long time that S-matrices in integrable models are fixed by symmetry. However, Lie algebra symmetry, the Yang-Baxter equation, crossing and unitarity, which are what constrains the S-matrix in integrable models, are often taken to be separate, independent properties of the S-matrix. Here, we construct scattering matrices purely from the Yangian, showing that the Yangian is the right algebraic object to unify all required symmetries of many integrable models. In particular, we reconstruct the S-matrix of the principal chiral field, and, up to a CDD factor, of other integrable field theories with su(n) symmetry. Furthermore, we study the AdS/CFT correspondence, which is also believed to be integrable in the planar limit. We reconstruct the S-matrices at weak and at strong coupling from the Yangian or its classical limit. This version of the thesis includes minor corrections following the viva on 17 September 2010.

The CMU Syntax-Augmented Machine Translation System: SAMT on Hadoop with N-best alignments
Creators: name: Zollmann, Andreas
name: Venugopal, Ashish
name: Vogel, Stephan
Publisher: name: Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)
Year: 2008

description: We present the CMU Syntax Augmented Machine Translation System that was used in the IWSLT-08 evaluation campaign. We participated in the Full-BTEC data track for Chinese-English translation, focusing on transcript translation. For this year’s evaluation, we ported the Syntax Augmented MT toolkit [1] to the Hadoop MapReduce [2] parallel processing architecture, allowing us to efficiently run experiments evaluating a novel “wider pipelines” approach to integrate evidence from N -best alignments into our translation models. We describe each step of the MapReduce pipeline as it is implemented in the open-source SAMT toolkit, and show improvements in translation quality by using N-best alignments in both hierarchical and syntax augmented translation systems.

description: Despite being very successful within the pattern recognition and machine learning community, graph-based methods are often unusable because of the lack of mathematical operations defined in graph domain. Graph embedding, which maps graphs to a vectorial space, has been proposed as a way to tackle these difficulties enabling the use of standard machine learning techniques. However, it is well known that graph embedding functions usually suffer from the loss of structural information. In this paper, we consider the hierarchical structure of a graph as a way to mitigate this loss of information. The hierarchical structure is constructed by topologically clustering the graph nodes, and considering each cluster as a node in the upper hierarchical level. Once this hierarchical structure is constructed, we consider several configurations to define the mapping into a vector space given a classical graph embedding, in particular, we propose to make use of the Stochastic Graphlet Embedding (SGE). Broadly speaking, SGE produces a distribution of uniformly sampled low to high order graphlets as a way to embed graphs into the vector space. In what follows, the coarse-to-fine structure of a graph hierarchy and the statistics fetched by the SGE complements each other and includes important structural information with varied contexts. Altogether, these two techniques substantially cope with the usual information loss involved in graph embedding techniques, obtaining a more robust graph representation. This fact has been corroborated through a detailed experimental evaluation on various benchmark graph datasets, where we outperform the state-of-the-art methods.

NNLOPS accurate predictions for $W^+W^-$ production

description: We present novel predictions for the production of $W^+W^-$ pairs in hadron collisions that are next-to-next-to-leading order accurate and consistently matched to a parton shower (NNLOPS). All diagrams that lead to the process $pp\to e^- \bar ν_e\;μ^+ν_μ+X$ are taken into account, thereby including spin correlations and off-shell effects. For the first time full NNLOPS accuracy is achieved for a $2\to 4$ process. We find good agreement, at the 1$σ$ level, with the $W^+W^-$ rates measured by ATLAS and CMS. The importance of NNLOPS predictions is evident from differential distributions sensitive to soft-gluon effects and from the large impact ($10$% and more) of including next-to-next-to-leading order corrections on top of MiNLO. We define a charge asymmetry for the $W$ bosons and the leptons in $W^+W^-$ production at the LHC, which is sensitive to the $W$ polarizations and hence can be used as a probe of new physics.

T Self-Dual Transverse Space and Gravity Trapping

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

description: We advocate that the orbifold Z_2 symmetry of the gravity trapping model proposed by Randall and Sundrum can be seen, in appropriate coordinates, as a symmetry that exchanges the short distances with the large ones. Using diffeomorphism invariance, we construct extensions defined by patch glued together. A singularity occurs at the junction and it is interpreted as a brane, the jump brane, of codimension one. We give explicit realization in ten and eleven dimensional supergravity and show that the lower dimensional Planck scale on the brane is finite. The standard model would be trapped on a supersymmetric brane located at the origin whereas the jump brane would surround it at a finite distance. The bulk interactions could transmit the supersymmetry breaking from the jump brane to the SM brane.

description: Asymptotic AdS Riemann space-times in five dimensions with a black brane (horizon) sourced by a fully back-reacted scalar field (dilaton) offer -- via the holographic dictionary -- various options for the thermodynamics of the flat four-dimensional boundary theory, uncovering Hawking-Page, first-order and second-order phase transitions up to a cross-over or featureless behavior. The relation of these phase structures to the dilaton potential is clarified and illustrating examples are presented. Having in mind applications to QCD we study probe vector mesons with the goal to figure out conditions for forming Regge type series of radial excitations and address the issue of meson melting.
Galactic Rotation Dynamics in f(T) gravity

description: We investigate galactic rotation curves in $f(T)$ gravity, where $T$ represents a torsional quantity. Our study centers on the particular Lagrangian $f(T)=T+α{T^n}$, where $|n|\neq 1$ and $α$ is a small unknown constant. To do this we treat galactic rotation curves as being composed from two distinct features of galaxies, namely the disk and the bulge. This process is carried out for several values of the index $n$. The resulting curve is then compared with Milky Way profile data to constrain the value of the index $n$ while fitting for the parameter $α$. These values are then further tested on three other galaxies with different morphologies. On the galactic scale we find that $f(T)$ gravity departs from standard Newtonian theory in an important way. For a small range of values of $n$ we find good agreement with data without the need for exotic matter components to be introduced.

description: The Class III cultural resources survey was requested by the Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District in order to assess the nature and extent of possible cultural resources present within the proposed project area. The project area is the intended location of a satellite switchyard for the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station. This parcel of land encompasses 240 acres south of Elliot Road, between the 500,000 volt North Gila and Kyrene transmission lines [Figure 1], The survey was conducted by Northland Research, Inc., between November 30th and December 2nd, 1999. There have been no previous archaeological investigations on this parcel of land, nor have any sites been previously recorded within the project area. However, a concurrent cultural resources survey conducted by Entranco Engineers, Inc., overlapped with the southwestern portions of the project area. The area of overlap corresponds with the portion of the land owned by SEMPRA.
Infinite-genus surfaces and the universal Grassmannian

description: Correlation functions can be calculated on Riemann surfaces using the operator formalism. The state in the Hilbert space of the free field theory on the punctured disc, corresponding to the Riemann surface, is constructed at infinite genus, verifying the inclusion of these surfaces in the Grassmannian. In particular, a subset of the class of $O_{HD}$ surfaces can be identified with a subset of the Grassmannian. The concept of flux through the ideal boundary is used to study the connection between infinite-genus surface and the domain of string perturbation theory. The different roles of effectively closed surfaces with Dirichlet boundaries in a more complete formulation of string theory are identified.
