description: Deep Learning models often exhibit undue confidence when encountering out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs, misclassifying with high confidence. The ideal outcome, in these cases, would be an "I do not know" verdict. We enhance the trustworthiness of our models through selective classification, allowing the model to abstain from making predictions when facing uncertainty. Rather than a singular prediction, the model offers a prediction distribution, enabling users to gauge the model’s trustworthiness and determine the need for human intervention. We assess uncertainty in two baseline models: a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and a Vision Transformer (ViT). By leveraging these uncertainty values, we minimize errors by refraining from predictions during high uncertainty. Additionally, we evaluate these models across various distributed architectures, including new AI architectures, Cerebras CS-2, and SambaNova SN30.

description: 
Introduction: Patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) typically transfer to an acute care floor prior to discharge (ACD). Various circumstances, including rapid clinical improvement, technology dependence, or capacity constraints, may lead to discharge directly to home from a PICU (DDH). This practice has been studied in adult intensive care units, but research is lacking for PICU patients. Methods: We aimed to describe characteristics and outcomes of patients requiring PICU admission who experienced DDH versus ACD. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients ≤18 years old admitted to our academic, tertiary care PICU between 1/1/15 and 12/31/20. Patients who died or were transferred to another facility were excluded. Baseline characteristics (including home ventilator dependence) and markers of illness severity, specifically the need for vasoactive infusion or new mechanical ventilation, were compared between groups. Admission diagnoses were categorized using the Pediatric Clinical Classification System (PECCS). Our primary outcome was hospital readmission within 30 days. Results: Of 4042 PICU admissions during the study period, 768 (19%) were DDH. Baseline demographic characteristics were similar, although DDH patients were more likely to have a tracheostomy (30% vs 5%, P < .01) and require a home ventilator at discharge (24% vs 1%, P < .01). DDH was associated with being less likely to have required a vasoactive infusion (7% vs 11%, P < .01), shorter median length of stay (LOS) (2.1 days vs 5.9 days, P < .01) and increased rate of readmission within 30 days of discharge (17% vs 14%, P < .05). However, repeat analysis after removing ventilator-dependent patients at discharge (n = 202) showed no difference in rates of readmission (14% vs 14%, P = .88). Conclusions: Direct discharge home from the PICU is a common practice. DDH and ACD groups had similar 30-day readmission rate when patient admissions with home ventilator dependence were excluded.

description: We propose a categorical framework to reason about scientific explanations: descriptions of a phenomenon meant to translate it into simpler terms, or into a context that has been already understood. Our motivating examples come from systems biology, electrical circuit theory, and concurrency. We demonstrate how three explanatory models in these seemingly diverse areas can be all understood uniformly via a graphical calculus of layered props. Layered props allow for a compact visual presentation of the same phenomenon at different levels of precision, as well as the translation between these levels. Notably, our approach allows for partial explanations, that is, for translating just one part of a diagram while keeping the rest of the diagram untouched. Furthermore, our approach paves the way for formal reasoning about counterfactual models in systems biology.

description: The addition of trauma to burn injuries may result in higher morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of pediatric patients with a combination of burn and trauma injuries, and included all pediatric Burn only, Trauma only, and combined Burn-Trauma patients admitted between 2011 and 2020. Mean length of stay, ICU length of stay, and ventilator days were highest for the Burn-Trauma group. The odds of mortality were almost 13 times higher for the Burn-Trauma group when compared to the Burn only group (P = .1299). After using inverse probability of treatment weighting, the odds of mortality were almost 10 times higher for the Burn-Trauma group in comparison to the Burn only group (P < .0066). Thus, the addition of trauma to burn injuries was associated with increased odds of mortality, as well as longer ICU and overall hospital length of stay in this patient population.

description: We consider weighted graphs satisfying sub-Gaussian estimate for the natural random walk. On such graphs, we study symmetric Markov chains with heavy tailed jumps. We establish a threshold behavior of such Markov chains when the index governing the tail heaviness (or jump index) equals the escape time exponent (or walk dimension) of the sub-Gaussian estimate. In a certain sense, this generalizes the classical threshold corresponding to the second moment condition.

description: A graph $G$ is pseudo 2-factor isomorphic if the parity of the number of cycles in a 2-factor is the same for all 2-factors of $G$. Abreu et al. conjectured that $K_{3,3}$, the Heawood graph and the Pappus graph are the only essentially 4-edge-connected pseudo 2-factor isomorphic cubic bipartite graphs (Abreu et al., Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2008, Conjecture 3.6). Using a computer search we show that this conjecture is false by constructing a counterexample with 30 vertices. We also show that this is the only counterexample up to at least 40 vertices. A graph $G$ is 2-factor hamiltonian if all 2-factors of $G$ are hamiltonian cycles. Funk et al. conjectured that every 2-factor hamiltonian cubic bipartite graph can be obtained from $K_{3,3}$ and the Heawood graph by applying repeated star products (Funk et al., Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2003, Conjecture 3.2). We verify that this conjecture holds up to at least 40 vertices.

description: In this work we show how FibLang, a category-theoretic framework concerned with the interplay between language and meaning, can be used to describe vocabulary acquisition, that is the process with which a speaker acquires new vocabulary (through experience or interaction). We model two different kinds of vocabulary acquisition, which we call 'by example' and 'by paraphrasis'. The former captures the idea of acquiring the meaning of a word by being shown a witness representing that word, as in 'understanding what a cat is, by looking at a cat'. The latter captures the idea of acquiring meaning by listening to some other speaker rephrasing the word with others already known to the learner. We provide a category-theoretic model for vocabulary acquisition by paraphrasis based on the construction of free promonads. We draw parallels between our work and Wittgenstein's dynamical approach to language, commonly known as 'language games'.

description: Many eukaryotic cells undergo frequent shape changes (described as amoeboid motion) that enable them to move forward. We investigate the effect of confinement on a minimal model of amoeboid swimmer. Complex pictures emerge: (i) The swimmer's nature (i.e., either pusher or puller) can be modified by confinement, thus suggesting that this is not an intrinsic property of the swimmer. This swimming nature transition stems from intricate internal degrees of freedom of membrane deformation. (ii) The swimming speed might increase with increasing confinement before decreasing again for stronger confinements. (iii) A straight amoeoboid swimmer's trajectory in the channel can become unstable, and ample lateral excursions of the swimmer prevail. This happens for both pusher- and puller-type swimmers. For weak confinement, these excursions are symmetric, while they become asymmetric at stronger confinement, whereby the swimmer is located closer to one of the two walls. In this study, we combine numerical and theoretical analyses.

description: Robustness of quantum operations or controls is important to build reliable quantum devices. The robustness-infidelity measure (RIM$_p$) is introduced to statistically quantify the robustness and fidelity of a controller as the p-order Wasserstein distance between the fidelity distribution of the controller under any uncertainty and an ideal fidelity distribution. The RIM$_p$ is the p-th root of the p-th raw moment of the infidelity distribution. Using a metrization argument, we justify why RIM$_1$ (the average infidelity) suffices as a practical robustness measure. Based on the RIM$_p$, an algorithmic robustness-infidelity measure (ARIM) is developed to quantify the expected robustness and fidelity of controllers found by a control algorithm. The utility of the RIM and ARIM is demonstrated by considering the problem of robust control of spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}$ networks using energy landscape shaping subject to Hamiltonian uncertainty. The robustness and fidelity of individual control solutions as well as the expected robustness and fidelity of controllers found by different popular quantum control algorithms are characterized. For algorithm comparisons, stochastic and non-stochastic optimization objectives are considered, with the goal of effective RIM optimization in the latter. Although high fidelity and robustness are often conflicting objectives, some high fidelity, robust controllers can usually be found, irrespective of the choice of the quantum control algorithm. However, for noisy optimization objectives, adaptive sequential decision making approaches such as reinforcement learning have a cost advantage compared to standard control algorithms and, in contrast, the infidelities obtained are more consistent with higher RIM values for low noise levels.

We consider discrete time Markov chains on $M$ symmetric with respect to $μ$ and whose one-step transition density is comparable to $ (V_h(d(x,y)) ϕ(d(x,y))^{-1}$, where $ϕ$ is a positive continuous regularly varying function with index $β\in (0,2)$ and $V_h$ is the homogeneous volume growth function. Extending several existing work by other authors, we prove global upper and lower bounds for $n$-step transition probability density that are sharp up to constants.

description: Optomechanics is currently believed to provide a promising route towards the achievement of genuine quantum effects at the large, massive-system scale. By using a recently proposed figure of merit that is well suited to address continuous-variable systems, in this paper we analyze the requirements needed for the state of a mechanical mode (embodied by an end-cavity cantilever or a membrane placed within an optical cavity) to be qualified as macroscopic. We show that, according to the phase space-based criterion that we have chosen for our quantitative analysis, the state achieved through strong single-photon radiation-pressure coupling to a quantized field of light and conditioned by measurements operated on the latter might be interpreted as macroscopically quantum. In general, though, genuine macroscopic quantum superpositions appear to be possible only under quite demanding experimental conditions.

description: A large collection of financial contracts offering guaranteed minimum benefits are often posed as control problems, in which at any point in the solution domain, a control is able to take any one of an uncountable number of values from the admissible set. Often, such contracts specify that the holder exert control at a finite number of deterministic times. The existence of an optimal bang-bang control, an optimal control taking on only a finite subset of values from the admissible set, is a common assumption in the literature. In this case, the numerical complexity of searching for an optimal control is considerably reduced. However, no rigorous treatment as to when an optimal bang-bang control exists is present in the literature. We provide the reader with a bang-bang principle from which the existence of such a control can be established for contracts satisfying some simple conditions. The bang-bang principle relies on the convexity and monotonicity of the solution and is developed using basic results in convex analysis and parabolic partial differential equations. We show that a guaranteed lifelong withdrawal benefit (GLWB) contract admits an optimal bang-bang control. In particular, we find that the holder of a GLWB can maximize a writer's losses by only ever performing nonwithdrawal, withdrawal at exactly the contract rate, or full surrender. We demonstrate that the related guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit contract is not convexity preserving, and hence does not satisfy the bang-bang principle other than in certain degenerate cases.

description: Observed in a significant fraction of clusters and groups of galaxies, diffuse radio synchrotron emission reveals the presence of relativistic electrons and magnetic fields permeating large-scale systems of galaxies. Although these non-thermal electrons are expected to upscatter cosmic microwave background photons up to hard X-ray energies, such inverse-Compton (IC) X-ray emission has so far not been unambiguously detected on cluster/group scales. Using deep, new proprietary XMM-Newton observations ($\sim$200 ks of clean exposure), we report a 4.6$σ$ detection of extended IC X-ray emission in MRC 0116+111, an extraordinary group of galaxies at $z = 0.131$. Assuming a spectral slope derived from low-frequency radio data, the detection remains robust to systematic uncertainties. Together with low-frequency radio data from GMRT, this detection provides an estimate for the volume-averaged magnetic field of $(1.9 \pm 0.3)$ $μ$G within the central part of the group. This value can serve as an anchor for studies of magnetic fields in the largest gravitationally bound systems in the Universe.

description: Introduction Enhanced recovery protocols (ERP) have been associated with fewer postoperative complications in adult colorectal surgery patients, but there is a paucity of data on pediatric patients. Our aim is to describe the effect of an ERP, compared to conventional care, on pediatric colorectal surgical complications. Materials and Methods We performed a single institution, retrospective cohort study (2014-2020) on pediatric (≤18 years old) colorectal surgery patients pre- and post-implementation of an ERP. Bivariate analysis and logistic regression were used to assess the effect of an ERP on return visits to the emergency room, reoperation, and readmission within 30-days. Results There were 194 patients included in this study, with 54 in the control cohort and 140 in the ERP cohort. There was no significant difference in the age, BMI, primary diagnosis, or use of laparoscopic technique between the cohorts. The ERP cohort had a significantly shorter foley duration, postoperative stay, and had nerve blocks performed. After controlling for pertinent covariates, the ERP cohort experienced higher odds of reoperation within 30 days (OR 5.83, P = .04). There was no significant difference in the other outcomes analyzed. Conclusion In this study, there was no difference in the odds of overall complications, readmission or return to the ER within 30-days of surgery. However, although infrequent, there were higher odds of returns to the OR within 30 days. Future studies are needed to analyze how adherence to individual components may influence patient outcomes to ensure patient safety during ERP implementation.

description: Even if wind tunnel tests and simulations have confirmed that tubercles can influence the behaviour of a profile, research in the field of axial pumps has so far been lacking. However, previous studies cannot be transferred to the application of axial pumps, since the requirements for the profile geometry as well as the Reynolds number range differ. The present study aims to address this research gap by performing a CFD simulation with a profile common for axial pumps, the Goe11K, testing four different tubercle configurations. At the same time, this simulation is a preliminary study for experimental tests. The results show that certain tubercle configurations improve the behaviour of the profile in the post-stall area, i.e., increase the lift of the profile at large angles of attack (α). In general, the curve of the profiles with tubercles runs more evenly, without the drastic drop in lift. This improved property comes at the expense of lower maximum lift and increased drag at lower α. With regard to the use of axial pumps, it can be concluded that there are advantages, particularly in the partial load range. These could ultimately enlarge the operation range of an axial pump.

description: We analyse under which dynamical conditions the coherence of an open quantum system is totally unaffected by noise. For a single qubit, specific measures of coherence are found to freeze under different conditions, with no general agreement between them. Conversely, for an N-qubit system with even N, we identify universal conditions in terms of initial states and local incoherent channels such that all bona fide distance-based coherence monotones are left invariant during the entire evolution. This finding also provides an insightful physical interpretation for the freezing phenomenon of quantum correlations beyond entanglement. We further obtain analytical results for distance-based measures of coherence in two-qubit states with maximally mixed marginals.

description: Trapped atomic ion qubits or effective spins are a powerful quantum platform for quantum computation and simulation, featuring densely connected and efficiently programmable interactions between the spins. While native interactions between trapped ion spins are typically pairwise, many quantum algorithms and quantum spin models naturally feature couplings between triplets, quartets or higher orders of spins. Here we formulate and analyze a mechanism that extends the standard Mølmer-Sørensen pairwise entangling gate and generates a controllable and programmable coupling between $N$ spins of trapped ions. We show that spin-dependent optical forces applied at twice the motional frequency generate a coordinate-transformation of the collective ion motion in phase-space, rendering displacement forces that are nonlinear in the spin operators. We formulate a simple framework that enables a systematic and faithful construction of high-order spin Hamiltonians and gates, including the effect of multiple modes of motion, and characterize the performance of such operations under realistic conditions.

On Algorithmic Problems Concerning Graphs of Higher Degree of Symmetry
Creators: name: AIRCC
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2014

description: Since the ancient determination of the five platonic solids the study of symmetry and regularity has always been one of the most fascinating aspects of mathematics. One intriguing phenomenon of studies in graph theory is the fact that quite often arithmetic regularity properties of a graph imply the existence of many symmetries, i.e. large automorphism group G. In some important special situation higher degree of regularity means that G is an automorphism group of finite geometry. For example, a glance through the list of distance regular graphs of diameter d < 3 reveals the fact that most of them are connected with classical Lie geometry. Theory of distance regular graphs is an important part of algebraic combinatorics and its applications such as coding theory, communication networks, and block design. An important tool for investigation of such graphs is their spectra, which is the set of eigenvalues of adjacency matrix of a graph. Let G be a finite simple group of Lie type and X be the set homogeneous elements of the associated geometry. The complexity of computing the adjacency matrices of a graph Gr on the vertices X such that Aut GR = G depends very much on the description of the geometry with which one starts. For example, we can represent the geometry as the totality of 1 cosets of parabolic subgroups 2 chains of embedded subspaces (case of linear groups), or totally isotropic subspaces (case of the remaining classical groups), 3 special subspaces of minimal module for G which are defined in terms of a G invariant multilinear form. The aim of this research is to develop an effective method for generation of graphs connected with classical geometry and evaluation of its spectra, which is the set of eigenvalues of adjacency matrix of a graph. The main approach is to avoid manual drawing and to calculate graph layout automatically according to its formal structure. This is a simple task in a case of a tree like graph with a strict hierarchy of entities but it becomes more complicated for graphs of geometrical nature. There are two main reasons for the investigations of spectra: (1) very often spectra carry much more useful information about the graph than a corresponding list of entities and relationships (2) graphs with special spectra, satisfying so called Ramanujan property or simply Ramanujan graphs (by name of Indian genius mathematician) are important for real life applications (see [13]). There is a motivated suspicion that among geometrical graphs one could find some new Ramanujan graphs.

Lethal aid and human security: The effects of US security assistance on civilian harm in low- and middle-income countries
Creators: name: Sullivan, Patricia L.
Publisher: name: SAGE Publications
Year: 2023

description: 
Since 2001, there has been a dramatic increase in the amount of US military aid flowing to foreign governments. What is the impact of this aid on human security? Drawing on recent research on the principal–agent relationship between state leaders and security sector actors, I develop a theory of the impact of security assistance on the use of deadly force against civilians. Using methods to account for the endogeneity of aid allocations, I find that the impact of security assistance on state violence varies based on the type of assistance provided and the institutional environment in the recipient state.
Unravelling the frontiers of artistic collaboration: an exploration of the space of improvisation

description: This practice-based inquiry examines the concept of ‘collaboration’ with artists from different disciplines who have an improvisatory practice. It explores how the disciplines unravel in the intricate array of interactions that take place in the making of a collaborative piece and it also examines the complex dynamics of improvisation in relation to collaboration. There are two principal objectives; firstly, to investigate the frontiers of collaboration when artists from different disciplines work together. Secondly, to explore the concept of ‘space’ - and its various dimensions - in improvisation as experienced by the artists participating in the research.The research methods include auto-ethnography and narrative inquiry as approaches to interacting with and documenting of the process. The primary data for the investigation emanates from two works (which were performed live in the course of the research), Beginnings in the Dark and Flux: Five iterations of Becoming. Along with the live performances and the audio-visual recordings of the works, the transcripts from the voice recordings of the three artists in dialogic conversation during the creative process forms an exceptional foundation for this research.A number of findings have emerged. Firstly, the shifting of boundaries in an essentially ‘emergent’ process means that they ‘dissolve’. This is suggested by the transformations they undergo in the exchanges that take place in experiential discourse. Secondly, collaborators ‘build’ a customised improvisational space which is ‘shared, conceptual and experiential’; each new collaboration is identified as having its own unique space. Thirdly, the term ‘pre-disciplinarity’ – referring to discourse that takes place before or outside discipline-specific notions - is proposed to identify the process of finding what is in common and what is essential to the making of a new work.

description: Pedestrian safety has become an important research topic among various studies due to the increased number of pedestrian-involved crashes. To evaluate pedestrian safety proactively, surrogate safety measures (SSMs) have been widely used in traffic conflict-based studies as they do not require historical crashes as inputs. However, most existing SSMs were developed based on the assumption that road users would maintain constant velocity and direction. Risk estimations based on this assumption are less unstable, more likely to be exaggerated, and unable to capture the evasive maneuvers of drivers. Considering the limitations among existing SSMs, this study proposes a probabilistic framework for estimating the risk of pedestrian-vehicle conflicts at intersections. The proposed framework loosen restrictions of constant speed by predicting trajectories using a Gaussian Process Regression and accounts for the different possible driver maneuvers with a Random Forest model. Real-world LiDAR data collected at an intersection was used to evaluate the performance of the proposed framework. The newly developed framework is able to identify all pedestrian-vehicle conflicts. Compared to the Time-to-Collision, the proposed framework provides a more stable risk estimation and captures the evasive maneuvers of vehicles. Moreover, the proposed framework does not require expensive computation resources, which makes it an ideal choice for real-time proactive pedestrian safety solutions at intersections.

description: The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex meshwork of insoluble fibrillar proteins and signaling factors interacting together to provide architectural and instructional cues to the surrounding cells. Alterations in ECM organization or composition and excessive ECM deposition have been observed in diseases such as fibrosis, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. We provide here optimized protocols to solubilize ECM proteins from normal or tumor tissues, digest the proteins into peptides, analyze ECM peptides by mass spectrometry, and interpret the mass spectrometric data. In addition, we present here two novel R-script-based web tools allowing rapid annotation and relative quantification of ECM proteins, peptides, and intensity/abundance in mass spectrometric data output files. We illustrate this protocol with ECMs obtained from two pairs of tissues, which differ in ECM content and cellularity: triple-negative breast cancer and adjacent mammary tissue, and omental metastasis from high-grade serous ovarian cancer and normal omentum. The complete proteomics data set generated in this study has been deposited to the public repository ProteomeXchange with the data set identifier: PXD005554.
