description: This paper addresses the problem of data-driven computation of controllers that are correct by design for safety-critical systems and can provably satisfy (complex) functional requirements. With a focus on continuous-space stochastic systems with parametric uncertainty, we propose a two-stage approach that decomposes the problem into a learning stage and a robust formal controller synthesis stage. The first stage utilizes available Bayesian regression results to compute robust credible sets for the true parameters of the system. For the second stage, we introduce methods for systems subject to both stochastic and parametric uncertainties. We provide simulation relations for enabling correct-by-design control refinement that are founded on coupling uncertainties of stochastic systems via sub-probability measures. The presented relations are essential for constructing abstract models that are related to not only one model but to a set of parameterized models. The results are demonstrated on three case studies, including a nonlinear and a high-dimensional system.

description: L’étude porte sur des discours tenus sur une plateforme conversationnelle en ligne créée dans le cadre du programme Pestalozzi du Conseil de l’Europe et destinée au développement professionnel des enseignant·es des 47 pays membres. Une analyse thématique, lexicale et par indicateurs, a été menée sur des discours concernant la manière dont l’évaluation est perçue par les participant·es. Une attention particulière a été apportée à la question de la démocratie, au centre des débats des participant·es qui, au fil des discours, configurent une communauté partageant une microculture. L’évaluation formative et la rétroaction sont perçues comme les modes d’évaluation démocratiques par excellence. Toutefois les échanges font état de la possibilité de faire évoluer l’approche évaluative face aux injonctions institutionnelles et sociétales, et d’une tension entre « ce que nous savons que nous devrions faire » et « ce qu’il est réellement possible de faire ». Cette tension discursive, au-delà de la dissonance qu’elle provoque, a pour effet d’amener les participant·es à s’accorder sur des objectifs de promotion de la démocratie et à rechercher les moyens de parvenir à plus de démocratie dans des environnements éducatifs qui, eux, ne sont pas foncièrement démocratiques. Les résultats suggèrent un « point aveugle » des travaux actuels sur les principes de l’évaluation formative, à savoir la question de la démocratie en éducation, et ses différentes dimensions : la sensibilité interculturelle, la justice, les pratiques atténuant les effets de la pauvreté et de la discrimination sociale, l’ethos, la relation entre les décideurs politiques et les praticien·nes.
Big Software For Big Data: Scaling Up Photometry For Lsst
Creators: name: Rawls, Meredith
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2016

description: The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will capture mosaics of the sky every few nights, each containing more data than your computer's hard drive can store. As a result, the software to process these images is as critical to the science as the telescope and the camera. I will discuss the algorithms and software being developed by the LSST Data Management team to handle such a large volume of data. All of our work is open source and available to the community. Once LSST comes online, our software will produce catalogs of objects and a stream of alerts. These will bring exciting new opportunities for followup observations and collaborations with LSST scientists.

description: We investigate the growth of stellar discs in Milky Way-mass galaxies using the magnetohydrodynamical simulations of the Auriga Project in a full cosmological context. We focus on the gas accretion process along the discs, calculating the net, infall and outflow rates as a function of galactocentric distance, and investigate the relation between them and the star formation activity. The stellar distributions of around 70% of the simulated galaxies exhibit an ``inside-out'' pattern, with older (younger) stellar populations preferentially located in the inner (outer) disc regions. In all cases, we find a very tight correlation between the infall, outflow and net accretion rates, as well as between these three quantities and the star formation rate. This is because the amount of gas which is ultimately available for star formation in each radial ring depends not only on the infall rates, but also on the amount of gas leaving the disc in outflows, which directly relates to the local star formation level. Therefore, any of these rates can be used to identify galaxies with inside-out growth. For these galaxies, the correlation between the dominant times of accretion/star formation and disc radius is well fitted by a linear function. We also find that, when averaged over galaxies with formation histories similar to the Milky Way, the simulated accretion rates show a similar evolution (both temporally- and radially-integrated) to the usual accretion prescriptions used in chemical evolution models, although some major differences arise at early times and in the inner disc regions.

description: We use ultrafast x-ray diffraction (UXRD) and the polar time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect (tr-MOKE) to study the laser-induced metamagnetic phase transition in two FeRh films with thicknesses below and above the optical penetration depth. In the thin film, we identify an intrinsic timescale for the light-induced nucleation of ferromagnetic (FM) domains in the antiferromagnetic material of $8\,\text{ps}$ that is substantially slower than the speed of sound. For the inhomogeneously excited thicker film, only the optically excited near-surface part transforms within $8\,\text{ps}$. For strong excitations we observe an additional slow rise of the FM phase, which we experimentally relate to a growth of the FM phase into the depth of the layer by comparing the transient magnetization in front- and backside excitation geometry. In the lower lying parts of the film, which are only excited via near-equilibrium heat transport, the FM phase emerges significantly slower than $8\,\text{ps}$ after heating above the transition temperature.

description: We propose a novel method for predicting time-to-event in the presence of cure fractions based on flexible survivals models integrated into a deep neural network framework. Our approach allows for non-linear relationships and high-dimensional interactions between covariates and survival and is suitable for large-scale applications. Furthermore, we allow the method to incorporate an identified predictor formed of an additive decomposition of interpretable linear and non-linear effects and add an orthogonalization layer to capture potential higher dimensional interactions. We demonstrate the usefulness and computational efficiency of our method via simulations and apply it to a large portfolio of US mortgage loans. Here, we find not only a better predictive performance of our framework but also a more realistic picture of covariate effects.

description: Understanding and controlling biasing effects in neural networks is crucial for ensuring accurate and fair model performance. In the context of classification problems, we provide a theoretical analysis demonstrating that the structure of a deep neural network (DNN) can condition the model to assign all predictions to the same class, even before the beginning of training, and in the absence of explicit biases. We prove that, besides dataset properties, the presence of this phenomenon, which we call \textit{Initial Guessing Bias} (IGB), is influenced by model choices including dataset preprocessing methods, and architectural decisions, such as activation functions, max-pooling layers, and network depth. Our analysis of IGB provides information for architecture selection and model initialization. We also highlight theoretical consequences, such as the breakdown of node-permutation symmetry, the violation of self-averaging and the non-trivial effects that depth has on the phenomenon.

description: Zero-determinant strategies are a class of strategies in repeated games which unilaterally control payoffs. Zero-determinant strategies have attracted much attention in studies of social dilemma, particularly in the context of evolution of cooperation. So far, not only general properties of zero-determinant strategies have been investigated, but zero-determinant strategies have been applied to control in the fields of information and communications technology and analysis of imitation. Here, we further deepen our understanding on general mathematical properties of zero-determinant strategies. We first prove that zero-determinant strategies, if exist, can be implemented by some one-dimensional transition probability. Next, we prove that, if a two-player game has a non-trivial potential function, a zero-determinant strategy exists in its repeated version. These results assist us to implement zero-determinant strategies in broader situations.

description: In Online Continual Learning (OCL) a learning system receives a stream of data and sequentially performs prediction and training steps. Important challenges in OCL are concerned with automatic adaptation to the particular non-stationary structure of the data, and with quantification of predictive uncertainty. Motivated by these challenges we introduce a probabilistic Bayesian online learning model by using a (possibly pretrained) neural representation and a state space model over the linear predictor weights. Non-stationarity over the linear predictor weights is modelled using a parameter drift transition density, parametrized by a coefficient that quantifies forgetting. Inference in the model is implemented with efficient Kalman filter recursions which track the posterior distribution over the linear weights, while online SGD updates over the transition dynamics coefficient allows to adapt to the non-stationarity seen in data. While the framework is developed assuming a linear Gaussian model, we also extend it to deal with classification problems and for fine-tuning the deep learning representation. In a set of experiments in multi-class classification using data sets such as CIFAR-100 and CLOC we demonstrate the predictive ability of the model and its flexibility to capture non-stationarity.

Selection And Analysis Of Active Galactic Nuclei In Otelo Survey
Creators: name: Ramón-Pérez, Marina
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2016

description: OTELO (Osiris Tunable Emission Line Object survey) has become the deepest emission-line survey to date using the Tunable Filters of the OSIRIS instrument at the GTC, which allow to obtain 2D low-resolution spectroscopy of all the objects in the field. More than 10k objects have been detected up to 3 sigma in the resulting deep image, with limiting flux of 1.8x10-20 erg/s/cm²/angstrom (mAB=27.18). A first multiwavelength catalogue of all the objects has been built using public archive data from X-Rays to Infrared. The emission-line objects have then been selected and their photometric redshifts derived. The confirmed emitters account for about 10% of the total number of objects, although another 20% of candidates is still awaiting confirmation. The next step has been to discriminate between Star-Forming Galaxies and AGN. To do that, we have used diagnostic and color-color diagrams, such as the ones in Cid-Fernandes et al. (2010) or Donley et al. (2012), as well as the complementary information in X-Rays and MIR. In this talk, we present the latest results obtained from the analysis of the population of Active Galactic Nuclei found in OTELO field of view, with special emphasis on the low-luminosity ones.

description: We investigate the possibility that inflation originates from a composite field theory, in terms of an effective chiral Lagrangian involving a dilaton and pions. The walking dynamics of the theory constrain the potential in a specific way, where the anomalous dimensions of operators involving pions play a crucial role. For realistic values of the anomalous dimensions, we find a successful hybrid inflation occurring via the dilaton-inflaton, with the pions acting as waterfall fields. Compositeness consistency strongly constrain the model, predicting a dilaton scale $f_χ\sim \mathcal{O} (1)$ in unit of the Planck scale, an inflation scale $H_\text{inf} \sim 10^{10}$ GeV, and the pion scale around $10^{14}$ GeV. We further discuss possible phenomenological consequences of this theory.

description: Control of particle motion is generally achieved by applying an external field that acts directly on each particle. Here, we propose a global way to manipulate the motion of a particle by dynamically changing the properties of the fluid in which it is immersed. We exemplify this principle by considering a small particle sinking in an anisotropic fluid whose viscosity depends on the shear axis. In the Stokes regime, the motion of an immersed object is fully determined by the viscosity of the fluid through the mobility matrix, which we explicitly compute for a pushpin-shaped particle. Rather than falling upright under the force of gravity, as in an isotropic fluid, the pushpin tilts to the side, sedimenting at an angle determined by the viscosity anisotropy axis. By changing this axis, we demonstrate control over the pushpin orientation as it sinks, even in the presence of noise, using a closed feedback loop. This strategy to control particle motion, that we dub viscous tweezers, could be experimentally realized in systems ranging from polyatomic fluids under external fields to chiral active fluids of spinning particles by suitably changing their direction of global alignment or anisotropy.

description: In 2020, the LHCb collaboration reported the exclusive branching fractions for the channels $B_s^0 \to D_s^{(*)-}μ^+ν_μ$ for the very first time. In view of these observations, we have recently reported the form factors and branching fraction computations for these channels employing the covariant confined quark model. As different other channels corresponding to $b \to c \ell ν_\ell$ have provided the hint for New Physics, the analysis of observables such as forward-backward asymmetry, longitudinal and transverse polarizations across the lepton flavours can serve as one of the important probes for the search for possible New Physics. In present work, we compute these observables for all the lepton flavours and compare our predictions with the other theoretical approaches.

description: Recruiting and retaining International Medical Graduates (IMGs) has been identified as a key component in addressing the ongoing workforce crisis in general practice. However, research shows IMG General Practitioners (GPs) face unique challenges compared to their UK-trained counterparts, impacting their welfare, retention in the workforce, and ability to provide patient care. This study examined the challenges facing early-career IMG GPs, the help and support they access and want to access, and their perceptions and utilisation of the help and support available. A mixed-methods study that collected primary data in an online survey and interviews between March and May 2023. Early-career IMG GPs based in South West England were invited to complete an online survey consisting of 5-point Likert-scale and free-text questions. Interviews were completed with key informants and some survey respondents. Qualitative data were analysed thematically. Data from the survey and interviews were analysed and merged using a convergent parallel design. Based on 29 survey replies and 9 interviews, four interrelated themes were identified: (i) communication and language, (ii) racism, unequal treatment, and developing coping mechanisms (iii), exclusion and being ‘othered’, and (iv) adapting to new ways of living and working. Although some IMG GPs access help and support, many feel this is insufficient and poorly accessible. IMG GPs face interrelated and unique challenges in their personal and professional lives and do not feel adequately supported by the NHS. Addressing this disconnect will be vital to sustaining the general practice workforce.

description: Medical trainees experience occupational stress, prompting increasing research to explore wellbeing interventions. To date, few meta-analyses have evaluated intervention effects, and none have focused on trainees in family medicine or general practice (FM/GP), specifically. Aim: To synthesise available literature on psychosocial interventions to promote wellbeing, and subsequently reduce ill-being or burnout, among FM/GP specialty trainees. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis were followed and online databases (Embase, Medline, PsycINFO, ProQuest, Scopus) systematically searched (no date limits) for published studies and dissertations. The methodological quality of included studies was reviewed (Mixed Methods Appraisal tool, GRADE assessment), and pre-post changes (Hedges’ g) pooled using random effects modelling. Eleven independent studies, involving 182 FM/GP trainees, were included in this review. Evaluated studies varied in their design and the results were characterised by imprecision. Interventions differed in their content, delivery, and length. The data did not favour a single type of intervention, although supporting individuals to monitor their wellbeing did produce significant, positive effects. There is a lack of evidence about the best ways to promote wellbeing in FM/GP trainees. Both the methodology and design of training and educational initiatives for FM/GP need careful consideration in order to progress this research.

description: The automation of High-Level Context (HLC) reasoning across intelligent systems at scale is imperative because of the unceasing accumulation of contextual data, the trend of the fusion of data from multiple sources (e.g., sensors, intelligent systems), and the intrinsic complexity and dynamism of context-based decision-making processes. To mitigate the challenges posed by these issues, we propose a novel Hierarchical Ontology-State Modeling (HOSM) framework CSM-H-R, which programmatically combines ontologies and states at the modeling phase and runtime phase for attaining the ability to recognize meaningful HLC. It builds on the model of our prior work on the Context State Machine (CSM) engine by incorporating the H (Hierarchy) and R (Relationship and tRansition) dimensions to take care of the dynamic aspects of context. The design of the framework supports the sharing and interoperation of context among intelligent systems and the components for handling CSMs and the management of hierarchy, relationship, and transition. Case studies are developed for IntellElevator and IntellRestaurant, two intelligent applications in a smart campus setting. The prototype implementation of the framework experiments on translating the HLC reasoning into vector and matrix computing and presents the potential of using advanced probabilistic models to reach the next level of automation in integrating intelligent systems; meanwhile, privacy protection support is achieved in the application domain by anonymization through indexing and reducing information correlation. An implementation of the framework is available at https://github.com/songhui01/CSM-H-R.

Salt-induced gelation of nonionic sucrose ester dispersions

description: The dispersions of nonionic sucrose ester surfactants in water exhibit a highly negative zeta-potential, though its origin remains controversial. The addition of electrolytes to these dispersions may influence their zeta-potential, thus potentially affecting their physicochemical properties. The electrolyte- and pH- driven gelation of aqueous dispersions of commercial sucrose stearate (S970) containing ca. 1:1 monoesters and diesters was studied using optical microscopy, rheological and zeta-potential measurements, and small-angle X-ray scattering techniques. At low electrolyte concentrations and pH $\gtrapprox$ 5, 0.5-5 wt. % S970 dispersions exhibited low viscosities and behaved as freely flowing liquids. The addition of electrolytes of low concentrations, e.g. 9 mM NaCl or 1.5 mM MgCl$_2$, induced the formation of a non-flowing gels. This sol-gel transition occurred due to the partial screening of the diesters particles charge, allowing the formation of an attractive gel network, spanning across the dispersion volume. Complete charge screening, however, led to a gel-sol transition and phase separation. Gel formation was observed also by pH variation without electrolyte addition, whereas the addition of free fatty acids had negligible impact on dispersion properties. These findings support the hypothesis that the negative charge in sucrose ester dispersions arises from hydroxyl anions adsorption on particles surfaces. Gels were formed using just 1.3 wt. % surfactant, and the critical electrolyte concentration for gelation was found to scale approximately with the square of the cation charge, in agreement with the low surface charge density theory. The biodegradable sucrose esters gels offer a sustainable alternative for structuring personal and home care products, replacing the wormlike micelles of synthetic surfactants typically used at much higher surfactant and salt concentrations.
