description: Questo studio utilizza il concetto di “esperienza condizionata del passato” come stimolo per comprendere gli atteggiamenti dei giovani adulti taiwanesi verso le visite museali in riferimento alle loro abitudini, sentimenti e valori. Ad un totale di 348 studenti universitari è stato somministrato un questionario strutturato. I risultati indicano come la formazione degli atteggiamenti sia associata all’esperienza. Gli atteggiamenti dei giovani adulti taiwanesi verso le visite museali mostrano una circolazione ciclica positiva tra identità, abitudini e valori. E’ stata osservata anche una discrepanza tra i valori dell'esperienza museale e l'esperienza nel contesto della formazione artistica. Vengono indicate proposte per la didattica museale da utilizzare a Taiwan.

description: BrickEarth Pottery sells quality homemade ceramic pieces. Specifically, we specialize in ceramics that have a simple, elegant, and functional design. The product line includes things like mugs, vases, tableware, pots for plants, berry bowls, nativity scenes among other things. A few things that set BrickEarth Pottery apart from other competitors include our commitment to sustainability, our fair prices, and our strong online presence. To explain these ideas a bit more at BrickEarth we value sustainability by working to keep minimal packaging when items are shipped and maintain this in mind when making our pieces, like always reusing clay and using minimal glazes. Second there is an effort to keep prices fair, so to reach a broad public. We may have a wide range of sizes and take into consideration the time spent making the pot, which creates a wide variety of prices. The third thing that sets BrickEarth Pottery apart is our online presence. With handmade ceramics those who do work keep it local and on a smaller “street fair” level. In Utah, and Logan, specifically there are few online presences and those that are there are quite small and do not ship their products. At BrickEarth we plan to ship our pots and continue to expand our online presence. We hope that each piece will bring a smile to your face each time you use it; and add a unique quality to your home reminding you things are always better handmade.

description: Lo scopo di questa ricerca è stato quello di esplorare atteggiamenti, motivazioni e emozioni verso la visita ai musei da parte di studenti universitari in Nuova Zelanda. La ricerca faceva parte di un progetto di ricerca internazionale sui fattori che influenzano le visite ai musei, finanziato da e con sede presso l'Università Roma Tre, sotto la direzione del Prof. Stefano Mastandrea. Erano rappresentai dieci paesi. La domanda di ricerca principale per lo studio condotto in Nuova Zelanda era: quali sono le percezioni degli studenti della facoltà di Scienze dell’Educazione per quanto concerne le esperienze museali? Questo tema è stato esplorato chiedendo: qual è il rapporto tra i tratti di personalità e il tipo di museo visitato? Qual è il rapporto tra educazione artistica e visite ai musei? Quali motivazioni e emozioni sono associate alla visita dei musei? I partecipanti sono stati 78 studenti universitari che hanno completato un’indagine online. I risultati hanno mostrato correlazioni significative tra il numero di visite ai musei negli ultimi 12 mesi e (a) se il partecipante avesse avuto una formazione artistica al di fuori dell’ambiente scolastico, (b) se il partecipante aveva visitato il museo da solo o era stato accompagnato da genitori o amici, e (c) il livello di interesse per l'artista / scienziato / esposizione. Le intenzioni di visitare un museo nei successivi 6 mesi risultavano predette dal numero di visite compiute nell'anno precedente, dalla voglia di divertirsi e dal benessere emozionale ottenuto. Un’analisi fattoriale sulle reazioni emozionali ha evidenziato 2 fattori che spiegavano il 60,49% della varianza. Il primo fattore comprendeva item come meraviglia, piacere, godimento estetico, divertimento, interesse, benessere, e curiosità. Il secondo fattore comprendeva item relativi alla malinconia, angoscia, e noia. I risultati sono discussi in termini di incoraggiamento alle visite museali per gruppi corrispondenti a queste fasce d’età.

Fashioning Worth, Fashioning Worlds: Early Modern Women and Civil Discourses
Creators: name: Rayner, Emma
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: From Michel de Montaigne to Pierre Bourdieu, Edmund Burke to Georg Simmel, an interest in courtesy, conduct, and civility has marked the careers of some of Europe's most celebrated thinkers. This common interest crystallized into a scholarly field with the publication of Norbert Elias's The Civilizing Process (1939; English trans. 1978-82), which posited a shift from a medieval regime of courtesy to one of early modern civility. The multidisciplinary field that grew out of Elias's contribution has, however, been dominated by the study of male humanists, not least owing to an overly narrow definition of the "social" or "public" sphere which has led to the omission of women from mainstream studies of civility and conduct. This thesis moves to redress the current gap in scholarship by offering the first extended account of early modern Englishwomen's textual engagements with courtesy, conduct, and civility ("civil discourses" for short) in the seventeenth century. It argues that female agents fashioned their worth and claimed a presence within established civil discourses by creating alternative textual worlds in which women enjoyed greater influence and liberty, and in more varied spaces. These alter-worlds tend to be built on a reimagining, if not an outright critique or rejection, of prevailing ideals of courtesy, virtuous conduct, and civility and their associated social dynamics, rather than their servile reproduction or reinforcement. The first two chapters address discourses of courtesy: first the treatment of courtly love in Mary Wroth's sonnet sequence Pamphilia to Amphilanthus (1621), and then the queenly disruption of kingly grace in the Stuart court masque. The third chapter, addressing conduct discourse, presents a comparative study of maternal advice in seventeenth-century mothers' legacies and Elizabeth Isham's manuscript autobiography. The last two chapters take up discourses of civility: first the interoperations of civility and imperial geography in Aphra Behn's Oroonoko (1688), and then the excavation of a philosophical tonality of civility in Mary Astell's writings on female education. All five chapters at once demonstrate the "sparkling multiplicity" of early modern women's engagements with civil discourses, and show how these women authors drew on a similar pool of rhetorical and generic strategies when fashioning their worth and worlds.

description: Schwertmannite (SHM) is a naturally occurring mineral that has been shown to effectively scavenge oxyanions from contaminated water. In this study, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy techniques in combination with wet-chemical techniques were used to study the competitive sorption of Se(IV) and Se(VI) at pH 3. The experiments were conducted with three types of schwertmannite obtained from oxidative synthesis, biogenic synthesis and high- pressure compaction at different initial Se concentrations and mixing ratios for 48 h and 56 days, respectively. A threshold value for the uptake mechanisms was identified, which reflects the amount of easily exchangeable sulphate (~0.5 mmol/g). At adsorbate concentrations below this threshold, an inner-sphere corner-sharing bidentate binuclear complex forms upon exchange with sulphate. At higher concentrations, both oxyanions become bound to SHM through co-occurrence of mainly inner-sphere and partly outer-sphere corner-sharing bidentate binuclear complexes with Fe(III) containing surface sites. Single species experiments clearly indicate a higher affinity of SHM for Se(IV). However, in mixed species experiments, competitive sorption occurs with equal or even preferential uptake of Se(VI) at concentrations much lower than the threshold value, presumably due to geometrical similarity between selenate and sulphate, and increasing preference for Se(IV) at high Se concentrations.

Collaborative Localisation of Autonomous Vehicles: Developing a Minimum-Energy Filter and Experimental Testbed
Creators: name: Henderson, Jack
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: Multi-robot autonomous systems are rapidly gaining traction across many industries and are at the cusp of widespread mainstream adoption.Compared with a single-robot, coordinated multi-robot operations unlock new capabilities and enhance system robustness.In particular, the task of robot localisation can be transformed by the use of multi-robot systems.Collaboration among robots facilitates improved localisation accuracy, resilience to sensor degradation, and navigation in previously inaccessible environments.However, this collaboration introduces increased complexity, communication overhead, and computational demands.Efficiently managing data dependencies arising from inter-robot information exchange stands as a fundamental challenge in collaborative localisation algorithm design. This research contributes to the advancement of collaborative localisation of multi-robot systems through the development of innovative algorithms designed for modern robotics platforms and the construction of a unique experimental dataset to validate such algorithms. The thesis begins with an in-depth study of existing approaches to collaborative localisation and a scrutiny of the mathematical structure that allows inter-robot dependencies to be accounted for with only minimal network communication.Despite considerable advancements in state estimation algorithms over the past three decades, the collaborative localisation literature primarily leans towards Kalman filter-based methods, which are ill-suited for modern aerial robots.To address this limitation, we introduce a novel algorithm for single-robot velocity-aided inertial localisation which utilises the concept of minimum-energy filtering.Extending this filter to the multi-robot case, we leverage existing techniques that reduce communication overhead while maintaining track of inter-robot dependencies.Simulations of these algorithms highlight the significant improvements they offer over non-collaborative localisation, while also revealing trade-offs between the level of communication between robots and localisation accuracy. To validate the real-world performance of the proposed algorithms, we recognise the need for real-world data.However, no publicly available dataset currently fulfils the requirements for testing inertial collaborative localisation algorithms.In the latter part of this thesis, we address this gap by designing a heterogeneous robot fleet of both aerial and ground-based vehicles.Using the fleet, we conduct outdoor experiments and produce five collaborative localisation datasets that validate the proposed algorithms and may, in future, serve as a common benchmark dataset within the research community.
Learning Deep Features for Limited-data Visual Problems
Creators: name: Hong, Jie
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: In the realm of deep computer vision, especially when faced with the challenge of limited data, leveraging innovative mechanisms for learning deep features becomes critical. This thesis presents five works to tackle limited-data visual problems, including low-shot and open-set scenarios. In the first work, few-shot recognition is addressed by introducing an attention agent to the backbone network. This agent, trained via reinforcement learning, adaptively locates representative regions on feature maps of the backbone. The policy gradient algorithm aids this process, focusing the agent mechanism for better generalization across unknown classes. The results demonstrate progressively discriminative feature maps, evident in the performance on few-shot image classification. The problem of audio-visual zero-shot learning is studied through a hyperbolic learning approach in the second work. With a recognized ability to discover hierarchical structure in data, the hyperbolic projection facilitates learning discriminative embedding features for audio-visual samples. Moreover, cross-modality alignment in the hyperbolic space is key in this approach, leading to clear improvements in several benchmark datasets. Moving to the challenge of open-set recognition, curved space embeddings continue to take the spotlight in the third work. The previous work demonstrates that hyperbolic geometry can encode richer structural information. For the open-set recognition task, we extend the approach using more types of curved geometries, including spherical and mixed geometries. These geometric constraints are interchangeably employed depending on the task. Two innovative geometric modules are proposed, replacing original Euclidean classifiers and improving performance in many visual open-set recognition tasks. In the third work, we find that open-set semantic segmentation (OSS) sometimes leaves big regions on the image unprocessed. To this end, in the fourth work, we extend OSS to the more encompassing task, \ie, generalized open-set semantic segmentation (GOSS). GOSS not only detects unknown regions but also enhances the agent's decision-making ability by further predicting more segments inside the unknown region. By integrating both pixel classification and clustering mechanisms, GOSS offers a more comprehensive open-set segmentation solution. Finally, in the fifth work, the thesis sheds light on the practical challenges of point cloud learning. A novel Point Cut-and-mix (PointCaM) mechanism is introduced to address open-set point cloud learning scenarios. PointCaM mechanism simulates out-of-distribution data and distinguishes between known and unknown data, showcasing promising results in its experimental evaluation. In conclusion, throughout this thesis, five innovative techniques or strategies are presented to optimize the learning of deep features, particularly in scenarios marked by data scarcity.

Saproxylic Insights: Unveiling Gut Microbial Dynamics in Forest Floor Invertebrates and Their Frass in the Tallaganda Region, NSW
Creators: name: Forteza, Imelda
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: Host-microbe associations have been, and continue to be, an area of great interest. Even within a well-defined and well-studied gut microbial community, little attention has been paid to how the dynamics of the host's gut environment may undergo shifts, potentially exhibiting concurrent variations along the spectrum of microbial independence within that particular microenvironment, ranging from loose and opportunistic host-microbe associations at one end to intimate and specific associations at the other. This study explored factors influencing gut microbial assembly and diversity among forest floor invertebrate hosts: saproxylic velvet worms, saprophagous wood cockroaches, funnel web spiders, and their immediate environment, the frass. All individuals used in this study were found in the Tallaganda Region of New South Wales, Australia. This study utilized the V4-V5 region of the 16S rRNA gene sequences to characterize the gut microbial structure and composition of the hosts in the wild, and in velvet worms along a gradient of semi-isolated refugia. A six-week feed experiment on velvet worms, wood cockroaches, huntsman and funnel web spiders showed higher gut microbial diversity in wood cockroaches than in velvet worms and spiders combined. Moreover, the microbiome of the fed groups seemed to be unaffected by feeding regimes, which included feeding or fasting. Low microbial diversity and highly variable gut microbial communities were observed across all velvet worms, funnel web, and huntsman spiders' gut samples. The core bacterial phyla across all hosts' gut samples were Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Firmicutes, with prevalence ranging from 40 -95 %. Interestingly, all these three taxa were also found in frass samples. In summary, combined with the results of the feeding experiments, while the core microbiome has been observed in at least 40% of the samples of interest, the likelihood of a persistent core microbial population in these species is rather low, in contrast to the wood cockroach, which appears to have a well-established community of gut microbes. These findings suggest additional research is essential to understanding the complexities of gut microbial communities and highlight the hosts' ability to dynamically engage with transient microbial communities within their direct surroundings, dead wood microhabitats. This nuanced understanding provides an ecological insight into the host-gut microbial associations and the dead wood microenvironment. It contributes to the ongoing discourse on the ecological dynamics of host-microbe associations, emphasizing the contextual significance of microbial independence along a spectrum of host-microbe interactions. These findings illuminate the complexities inherent in the interplay between hosts and their microbial communities, offering valuable insights into dead wood microhabitats.
P2GreeN position paper  on EU Bioeconomy Action Plan

description: P2GreeN’s approach of coupling urban and rural infrastructures through the holistic management of water, agriculture, and food systems embodies the bioeconomy’s goal of creating interconnected systems that utilize biological resources efficiently. By focusing on the recovery and reuse of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from human sanitary waste to produce bio-based fertilizers, P2GreeN enhances the sustainability and resilience of the agri-food system and reduces dependence on mineral fertilizers. This initiative not only mitigates nutrient pollution from N and P but also promotes the circular economy by transforming waste into valuable agricultural inputs, thereby preserving ecosystems and contributing to sustainable food systems. Through its pilot regions and governance solutions, P2GreeN demonstrates how innovative, circular solutions can be operationalized, thereby advancing the bioeconomy’s mission of fostering a sustainable, resource-efficient, and resilient European economy.

Given how well the P2GreeN project aligns with the European bioeconomy strategy, in this position paper, the consortium aims to highlight several points that should be emphasized and potentially included in the revised Bioeconomy Action Plan.

description: ABSTRACT Urban Renewal Highways built following the National Highway Act of 1956 perpetuate a culture of inequity and segregation by acting as socio economic dividers in many postindustrial American cities of the Great Migration. In the Post-Great Recession Real Estate Boom communities disconnected by these highways have received little to no investment, while communities in desirable locations have faced displacement. Southwest Baltimore, Maryland embodies the former. Separated from the heart of Baltimore by Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard the neighborhood has made modest strides in recovering from urban exodus and institutional racism involved in home loans, red lining, and block busting following World War II. As cities revitalize, now is a critical point in history to improve connectivity across Urban Renewal infrastructure and provide access to improved quality of life in communities like Southwest Baltimore, while maintaining affordability and existing culture. To maintain these physical dividers in place is an endorsement of divisive urbanism and subsequent inequitable culture.

description: Target trial emulation can be used to evaluate the effects of treatments using observational data. The trial emulation approach involves specifying key elements of a protocol for a target trial (a randomised controlled trial designed to address the question of interest) and then describing how best to emulate the trial using observational data. Recent years have seen an uptake of target trial emulation in several disease areas, although there are limited examples in cystic fibrosis. This protocol describes a study which aims to assess the applicability of target trial emulation in cystic fibrosis (CF). We aim to emulate an existing trial in CF and assess to what extent the results from the trial can be replicated using registry data. We aim to emulate a published trial (i.e., the target trial) which found evidence for beneficial effects of azithromycin use on lung function in young adults with cystic fibrosis. Two emulated trials are planned: one using data from the UK CF Registry and one using data from the US CF Registry. The inclusion and exclusion criteria, treatment and outcome definitions, follow-up period, and estimand of interest are all designed to match the published trial as closely as possible. Inverse-probability-of-treatment weighting will be used in the emulated trials to account for confounding bias. Results obtained in the emulated trials using registry data will be compared to the results obtained in the published randomised controlled trial.

description: Milligram-scale Flame Calorimetry (MFC) is a controlled-atmosphere flammability technique used to screen fire retardant materials which do not intumesce. The MFC is a desirable technique due to its calorimetry capabilities, small sample size requirement and allowance for the non-intrusive study of an axisymmetric laminar diffusion flame. In in this work, a new MFC pyrolyzer system was developed to emulate the burning behavior of cone calorimetry samples, improving upon the limited use of the MFC. The new pyrolyzer system enables the testing of 30 – 55 mg samples as well as intumescent charring materials. The material surface temperature is directly measured during a test, which was previously not possible. A comparative study of five representative materials, covering a wide range of sooting and charring conditions, is conducted considering the new MFC, along with Microscale Combustion Calorimetry and cone calorimetry. It is concluded that the new MFC can be used to rank flammability of a wide range of polymeric materials and this ranking is the same at that obtained through cone calorimetry testing.

description: Cultural competence is a core component of delivering effective psychotherapy to clients with diverse sexual lifestyles, including BDSM practitioners, who constitute a substantial minority of the population. Couple and Family Therapists (CFTs) are uniquely prepared to explore relationships and power dynamics, but no research has explored CFTs’ psychotherapeutic relationship with BDSM practitioners. This study measures CFTs’ BDSM attitudes, perceived competence, and the relationship between these and related professional factors. Results indicated that CFTs (n = 132) have positive attitudes and moderate perceived competence; attitudes and perceived competence were negatively correlated. Controlling for various professional factors such as AASECT certification, we found that participants with at least three or more hours of BDSM-specific training had significantly more positive attitudes and significantly higher perceived competence. Including these hours in graduate training or continuing education credits could help CFTs to feel more “kink aware” and competent to deliver ethical care for this population.

description: L'istituzione chiamata museo ha un ruolo di primo piano nella condivisione dei beni culturali. Questa ricerca si concentra principalmente sul significato delle esperienze di visita ai musei da parte di giovani secondo la prospettiva della psicologia dell'arte. Lo studio si basa sui dati ungheresi di un'indagine interculturale sulle abitudini, atteggiamenti, credenze e tratti di personalità inerenti la visita ai musei. I dati dell'indagine sono stati descritti e analizzati come modelli di percezione di visite museali. I tipi di visitatori definibili come "museofobi" e "museofili" sono stati suggeriti come due modi diversi di atteggiamenti personali verso il museo: astenendosi ed evitando le visite ai musei, da un lato, e la percezione di musei come luogo per la raccolta di esperienze emotive e di apprendimento, dall'altro. Le tecniche qualitative e le interviste sono state applicate per integrare e approfondire i dati dell'indagine. Abbiamo condotto interviste semi-strutturate tra i giovani ungheresi sulla questione del “Che cosa significa un museo per i giovani adulti”? Dopo aver analizzato i questionari ed elaborato i contenuti delle interviste, è possibile trarre conclusioni in merito alle motivazioni dei giovani alla visita museale. Risulta che i frequentatori di musei pensano ai musei come luoghi importanti sia per l'acquisizione di conoscenze sia per l'ottenimento di esperienze emotive, mentre coloro che evitano le visite non considerano i musei un luogo valido per nessuno dei due aspetti.

Year: 2016

description: L'obiettivo della ricerca è stato quello di condurre un’indagine su larga scala, in diversi paesi (Austria, Francia, Ungheria, Italia, Nuova Zelanda, Portogallo, Taiwan, USA) per indagare diverse caratteristiche psicologiche e pedagogiche, come tratti di personalità, motivazioni, emozioni, atteggiamenti e processi di apprendimento per quanto riguarda l'esperienza di visita al museo. Il campione complessivo era composto da 2.352 giovani-adulti studenti universitari. I risultati mostrano, tra i vari dati, che circa il 25% dell'intero campione non ha visitato nessun museo nel corso dell'anno precedente e che il museo d'arte moderna è  stato il genere di museo maggiormente visitato.

Electromagnetic field and chaotic charged-particle motion around hairy black holes in Horndeski gravity

description: The Wald vector potential is an exact solution of the source-less Maxwell equations regarding an electromagnetic field of a vacuum uncharged black hole like the Kerr background black hole in an asymptotically uniform magnetic field. However, it is not if the black hole is a nonvacuum solution in a theory of modified gravity with extra fields or a charged Kerr-Newman spacetime. To satisfy the source-less Maxwell equations in this case, the Wald vector potential must be modified and generalized appropriately. Following this idea, we derive an expression for the vector potential of an electromagnetic field surrounding a hairy black hole in the Horndeski modified gravity theory. Explicit symplectic integrators with excellent long-term behaviour are used to simulate the motion of charged particles around the hairy black hole immersed in the external magnetic field. The recurrence plot method based on the recurrence quantification analysis uses diagonal structures parallel to the main diagonal to show regular dynamics, but adopts no diagonal structures to indicate chaotic dynamics. The method is efficient to detect chaos from order in the curved spacetime, as the Poincare map and the fast Lyapunov indicator are.

Learning to Communicate Functional States with Nonverbal Expressions for Improved Human-Robot Collaboration

description: Collaborative robots must effectively communicate their internal state to humans to enable a smooth interaction. Nonverbal communication is widely used to communicate information during human-robot interaction, however, such methods may also be misunderstood, leading to communication errors. In this work, we explore modulating the acoustic parameter values (pitch bend, beats per minute, beats per loop) of nonverbal auditory expressions to convey functional robot states (accomplished, progressing, stuck). We propose a reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm based on noisy human feedback to produce accurately interpreted nonverbal auditory expressions. The proposed approach was evaluated through a user study with 24 participants. The results demonstrate that: 1. Our proposed RL-based approach is able to learn suitable acoustic parameter values which improve the users' ability to correctly identify the state of the robot. 2. Algorithm initialization informed by previous user data can be used to significantly speed up the learning process. 3. The method used for algorithm initialization strongly influences whether participants converge to similar sounds for each robot state. 4. Modulation of pitch bend has the largest influence on user association between sounds and robotic states.
