description: The isomer 83mKr with its half-life of 1.83 h is an ideal calibration source for a liquid noble gas dark matter experiment like the XENON project. However, the risk of contamination of the detector with traces of the much longer lived mother isotop 83Rb (86.2 d half-life) has to be ruled out. In this work the release of 83Rb atoms from a 1.8 MBq 83Rb source embedded in zeolite beads has been investigated. To do so, a cryogenic trap has been connected to the source for about 10 days, after which it was removed and probed for the strongest 83Rb gamma-rays with an ultra-sensitive Germanium detector. No signal has been found. The corresponding upper limit on the released 83Rb activity means that the investigated type of source can be used in the XENON project and similar low-background experiments as 83mKr generator without a significant risk of contaminating the detector. The measurements also allow to set upper limits on the possible release of the isotopes 84Rb and 86Rb, traces of which were created alongside the production of 83Rb at the Rez cyclotron.

Subjects: Computer science

description: Camera placement experiments are presented that demonstrate the effectiveness of a viewpoint planning algorithm that avoids occlusion of a visual target. A CCD camera mounted on a robot in a hand-eye configuration is placed at planned unobstructed viewpoints to observe a target on a real object. The validity of the method is tested by placing the camera inside the viewing region, that is constructed using the proposed new sensor placement planning algorithm and observing whether the target is truly visible. The accuracy of the boundary of the constructed viewing region is tested by placing the camera at the critical - locations of the viewing region boundary and confirming that the target is barely visible. The corresponding scenes from the candidate viewpoints are shown demonstrating that occlusions are properly avoided.

Dark matter in a SUSY left-right model

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Supersymmetric left-right models are well motivated extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model since they automatically contain the ingredients to explain the observed neutrino masses and mixings. Here we study a SUSY model in which the left-right symmetry is broken by triplets at a high scale leading to automatic R-parity conservation at low energies. The sparticle spectra in this model differ from the usual constrained MSSM expectations and these changes affect the relic abundance of the lightest neutralino. We discuss two examples: (1) the standard stau co-annihilation region, and (2) flavoured co-annihilation.

description: The analysis of relativistically broadened X-ray spectral features from the inner accretion disk provides a powerful tool for measuring the spin of supermassive black holes (SMBH) in active galactic nuclei (AGN). However, AGN spectra are often complex and careful analysis employing appropriate and self-consistent models are required if one is to obtain robust results. In this paper, we revisit the deep July-2009 Suzaku observation of the Seyfert galaxy NGC3783 in order to study in a rigorous manner the robustness of the inferred black hole spin parameter. Using Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) techniques, we identify a (partial) modeling degeneracy between the iron abundance of the disk and the black hole spin parameter. We show that the data for NGC3783 strongly require both supersolar iron abundance (Z_Fe=2-4Zsun) and a rapidly spinning black hole (a>0.88). We discuss various astrophysical considerations that can affect the measured abundance. We note that, while the abundance enhancement inferred in NGC3783 is modest, the X-ray analysis of some other objects has found extreme iron abundances. We introduce the hypothesis that the radiative levitation of iron ions in the innermost regions of radiation-dominated AGN disks can enhance the photospheric abundance of iron. We show that radiative levitation is a plausible mechanism in the very inner regions of high accretion rate AGN disks.

Shape From Textures: A Paradigm for Fusing Middle Level Vision Cues
Creators: name: Moerdler, Mark L.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1989
Subjects: Computer science

description: This research proposes a new approach to the problem of deriving the orientation, segmentation, and classification of surfaces based on multiple independent textual cues. The generality of this approach is due to the interaction between textural cues, thus allowing it to extract shape information from a wider range of textured surfaces than any individual method. The method consists of three major phases: the calculation of orientation constraints for subimage elements called "texel patches", the consolidation of constraints into a "most likely" orientation per patch, and finally the reconstruction of the surface. During the first phase, the different shape-from-texture components generate augmented texels. Each augmented texel consists of the 2-D description of a texel patch and a list of weighted constraints on its orientation. The orientation constraints for each patch are potentially inconsistent or potentially incorrect because the shape-from methods are applied to noisy images, locally based, and derive constraints without a priori knowledge of the type of texture or number of surfaces. The constraints are weighted by each shape-from method based on an intra-cue correctness factor. This factor attempts to measure how closely the constraint fulfill the underlying assumptions of the cue. The orientation constraints' weights are then normalized between cues in order to assure that no cue predominates unfairly. In the second phase, all the orientation constraints for each augmented texel are consolidated into a single "most likely" orientation by a Hough-like transformation on a tesselated Gaussian sphere. The system iteratively reanalyzes each of the texel patches, calculating the "most likely" orientations for each patch. Finally, the system re-analyzes the orientation constraints to determine which augmented texels are part of the same constraint family and which cues were used to generated the valid constraints. In effect, this both segments the image into regions of similar orientation and supplies texture classification information. The robustness of this approach is illustrated by a system that fuses the orientation constraints of five shape-from cues and solves real camera-acquired imagery.

A Theory of Pattern Rejection
Creators: name: Baker, Simon
name: Nayar, Shree K.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1995
Subjects: Computer science

description: The efficiency of pattern recognition is critical when a large number of classes are to be discriminated, or when the recognition algorithm needs to be applied a large number of times. We propose and analyze a general technique, namely pattern rejection, that results in efficient pattern recognition. Rejectors are introduced as algorithms that can very quickly eliminate from further consideration most classes or inputs (depending on the setting). Rejectors may be combined to form composite rejectors, which are more e ective than any single rejector. Composite rejectors are analyzed and conditions derived which guarantee both efficiency and practicality. A general technique is proposed for the construction of composite rejectors, based on a single assumption about the classes. The generality of this assumption is shown through its connection with the Karhunen-Loeve expansion. A relation of pattern rejection with Fisher's discriminant analysis is also shown. Composite rejectors were constructed for two applications, namely, object recognition and local feature detection. In both cases, a substantial improvement in efficiency over existing techniques was found.

Community forests for forest communities : an examination of power imbalances, challenges and goals in Brazil and Mexico
Creators: name: Hajjar, Reem Fouad
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Community forestry can deliver economic, socio-cultural and ecological benefits to local communities. Case studies from around the world have shown this, yet results have also been mixed, as many initiatives have failed to deliver their promises. Criticisms have arisen that community forestry remains dominated by decision-making by offsite experts, replication of models deemed successful in other contexts, and the spread of forestry practices that have been developed for the large-scale forest industry. This research provides further insights into community forestry from the perspective of the local forest user. A case study approach was used for an in-depth examination of six community forestry initiatives in Brazil and Mexico, assessing the current status of community forestry and suggesting a path forward based on local needs and wants. Qualitative content analysis of semi-structured interviews with community members, and elements of grounded theory methodology, were used to: assess the amount of forest management authority communities currently have; create a framework outlining the challenges facing communities in managing their forests; and, identify community-defined goals and processes for community forestry initiatives. Results showed that, despite the rhetoric of decentralization, communities continue to work within tightly regulated frameworks of forest management with limited decision-making power for forest product commercialization. Within this limited power structure, communities face interrelated challenges in both the development and operationalization phases of forestry initiatives, requiring a holistic strategy of intervention to encourage the maintenance of a profitable and self-sufficient enterprise. In identifying community-defined goals, this research found that other livelihood strategies, particularly agricultural practices, need to be considered when designing forestry interventions that are overly focused on timber production. This exercise also underlined the need to promote site-specific models of intervention that take into account the variety of contexts and community interests. A better understanding of local perspectives can aid in the design of community forestry interventions brought by conservation and development agencies, by adding an important and understudied perspective to the problems that face community forestry. Without the community member playing an essential and empowered role, the success of community forestry will be limited.

Minimum-Knowledge Interactive Proofs for Decision Problems

description: Interactive communication of knowledge from the point of view of resource-bounded computational complexity is studied. Extending the work of Goldwasser, Micali, and Rackof [Proc. 17th Annual ACM Symposium on the Theory of Computing, 1985, pp. 291““304; .,18 (1989), pp. 186““208], the authors define a protocol transferring the result of any fixed computation to be minimum-knowledge if it communicates no additional knowledge to the recipient besides the intended computational result. It is proved that such protocols may be combined in a natural way so as to build more complex protocols. A protocol is introduced for two parties, a prover and a verifier, with the following properties:(1) Following the protocol, the prover gives to the verifier a proof of the value, 0 or 1, of a particular Boolean predicate, which is (assumed to be) hard for the verifier to compute. Such a deciding “interactive proof-system“ extends the interactive proof-systems of [op. cit.], which are used only to confirm that a certain predicate has value 1. (2) The protocol is minimum-knowledge. (3) The protocol is result-indistinguishable: an eavesdropper, overhearing an execution of the protocol, does not learn the value of the predicate that is proved. The value of the predicate is a cryptographically secure bit, shared by the two parties to the protocol. This security is achieved without the use of encryption functions, all messages being sent in the clear. These properties enable one to define a cryptosystem in which each user receives exactly the knowledge he is supposed to receive, and nothing more.
Parallel Algorithmic Techniques for Combinatorial Computation
Creators: name: Eppstein, David
name: Galil, Zvi
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1988
Subjects: Computer science

description: Parallel computation offers the promise of great improvements in the solution of problems that, if we were restricted to sequential computation, would take so much time that solution would be impractical. There is a drawback to the use of parallel computers, however, and that is that they seem to be harder to program. For this reason, parallel algorithms in practice are often restricted to simple problems such as matrix multiplication. Certainly this is useful, and in fact we shall see later some non-obvious uses of matrix manipulation, but many of the large problems requiring solution are of a more complex nature. In particular, an instance of a problem may be structured as an arbitrary graph or tree, rather than in the regular order of a matrix. In this paper we describe a number of algorithmic techniques that have been developed for solving such combinatorial problems. The intent of the paper is to show how the algorithmic tools we present can be used as building blocks for higher level algorithms, and to present pointers to the literature for the reader to look up the specifics of these algorithms. We make no claim to completeness; a number of techniques have been omitted for brevity or because their chief application is not combinatorial in nature. In particular we give very little attention to parallel sorting, although sorting is used as a subroutine in a number of the algorithms we describe. We also only describe algorithms, and not lower bounds, for solving problems in parallel.

description: Initial data for the spherically symmetric Einstein-Vlasov system is constructed whose past evolution is regular and whose future evolution contains a black hole. This is the first example of initial data with these properties for the Einstein-matter system with a "realistic" matter model. One consequence of the result is that there exists a class of initial data for which the ratio of the Hawking mass $\open{m}=\open{m}(r)$ and the area radius $r$ is arbitrarily small everywhere, such that a black hole forms in the evolution. This result is in a sense analogous to the result for a scalar field. Another consequence is that there exist black hole initial data such that the solutions exist for all Schwarzschild time $t\in (-\infty,\infty)$.

Large N gauge theory and k-strings
Creators: name: Yang, Shuhang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: We considered the k-antisymmetric representation of U(N) gauge group on two dimensional lattice space and derived the free energy by saddle point approximation in large N limit. k is a large integer comparable with N. Besides Gross-Witten phase transition[1], which happens as the coupling constant changes, we found a new phase transition in the strong coupling system that happens as k changes. The free energy of the weak coupling system is a smooth function of k under continuous limit. We have carefully selected the right saddle point solution among other possible ones. The numerical results match our saddle point calculations.

description: The forming and melting of complementary base pairs in RNA duplexes are conformational transitions required to accomplish a plethora of biological functions. Yet the dynamic steps of these transitions have not been quantitatively characterized at the molecular level. In this work, the base opening process was first enforced by atomistic pulling simulations and then analyzed with a novel reweighting scheme which allowed the free-energy profile along any suitable reaction coordinate, e.g. solvation, to be reconstructed. The systematic application of such approach to different base-pair combinations provides a molecular motion picture of helix opening which is validated by comparison with an extensive set of experimental observations and links them to the enzyme-dependent unwinding mechanism. The RNA intrinsic dynamics disclosed in this work could rationalize the directionality observed in RNA-processing molecular machineries.

Coerced Markov Models for Cross-Lingual Lexical-Tag Relations

Subjects: Computer science

description: We introduce the Coerced Markov Model (CMM) to model the relationship between the lexical sequence of a source language and the tag sequence of a target language, with the objective of constraining search in statistical transfer-based machine translation systems. CMMs differ from Hidden Markov Models in that state sequence assignments can take on values coerced from external sources. Given a Chinese sentence, a CMM can be used to predict the corresponding English tag sequence, thus constraining the English lexical sequence produced by a translation model. The CMM can also be used to score competing translation hypotheses in N-best models. Three fundamental problems for CMM designed are discussed. Their solutions lead to the training and testing stages of CMM.

We give a similar proof making use of 21 rays that constitute a SIC and four Mutually Unbiased Bases.

IMPROC: An Interactive Image Processing Software Package
Creators: name: Wolberg, George
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1988
Subjects: Computer science

description: IMPROC is a general-purpose interactive image processing software package. The system includes a collection of library routines and a menu-driven environment in which to invoke all supported image operators. A wide range of image operations are available, including point, neighborhood, arithmetic, logic, and geometric processes. In addition, there are utilities for image transforms, compositing, colorization, look-up tables, and graphic display of images. Key features of IMPROC include its emphasis on simplicity, generality, and device independence. Flexibility and software utility is augmented by the simple, and general, canonical representation of internal images. Unlike most systems that place strict restrictions on the pixel data type, IMPROC accomodates images having pixels of variable precision and arbitrary dimensions. A consequence of this feature is that all supported image operations are equally useful for general-format data. This uniform treatment of data that vary in size and type is critical to advanced processing techniques. Finally, device independence protects IMPROC from the inevitable obsolesence of the supporting hardware. This paper is a complete guide to IMPROC. It includes a user's guide, programmer's manual, numerous examples, and an extensive bibligraphy. In addition, a discussion of the design philosophy is given to supply insight that maximizes user productivity and promotes uniform practices for code integration.
Intelligent Assistance for Software Development and Maintenance

Year: 1988
Subjects: Computer science

description: This article presents an architecture for controlled automation in software development environments. Controlled automation enables environments to behave as intelligent assistants by answering questions about the software project and automatically invoking tools to further the users’ goal of producing a working software system. The discussion of the architecture focuses primarily on the programming stages of development and maintenance. An environment assists programmers by understanding the technical aspects of the evolving software system and by actively participating in the programming process. The architecture supports these capabilities by providing two kinds of knowledge representation: (1) the knowledge specific to a particular software project is represented as entities in a database and (2) the knowledge that models programming activities in general is represented as rules amenable to forward and backward chaining. These rules enable an environment to automatically carry out each activity sometime between when its conditions are satisfied and its results are required. The rules are grouped into collections called strategies. One or more specific strategies are employed according to each user’s current context and goals, and determine when forward or backward chaining should be applied and which rules are considered during chaining. This architecture has been validated through a prototype implementation that models the capabilities of an existing environment that supports automation.
title: The solo for a violin: a new perspective on the Italian violinists in London in the eighteenth century
Creators: name: Christensen, A. M.
Publisher: name: Royal College of Music
Year: 2018

description: Throughout the eighteenth century Italian violinists were praised and admired by London audiences. Though never as feted as the Italian castrati and sopranos, the Italian violinists in eighteenth-century London played a prominent role, featuring as leaders and soloists in every context where music was required. This dissertation focuses on the role the ‘Solo’ played in the careers of these Italian violinists, and how these artists and this genre fitted in socially, culturally and aesthetically. The ‘Solo’ was an important tool for them in promoting their careers: it was the repertoire they performed and subsequently published in order to enhance their fame. As a genre, the ‘Solo’ was uniquely suited to exploring a violinist’s artistic invention. Exploring the repertoire provides a new understanding of these artists and the important role they played in eighteenth-century London. 
First, the Italian violinist is considered through a discussion of the historical and cultural context of eighteenth-century London into which these artists arrived. The cultural scene (including the Italian Opera, the theatres and the emerging public concert scene) is studied, as are various forms of patronage and the tradition of private pupils. The prominence and longevity of the ‘Solo’ is examined through a consideration of surviving catalogues from the publishers active in London during the century. Concert and publication advertisements support the argument.
To understand further why the ‘Solo’ and the Italian violinist were appreciated, eighteenth-century treatises on aesthetics and musical performance are discussed, exploring the concept of ‘Good Taste’ and in the process revealing the ‘aesthetic of moderation’. Finally, the Solo repertoire itself will be explored, focusing both on contemporary aesthetics and performance practice issues. This will be done both through a general survey of the Solo genre as well as a couple of case studies.

description: Oxidative C–H functionalization of dihydrobenzophenanthridines catalyzed by dihydrobenzophenanthridine oxidase (DBOX) is believed to be the key step involved in the biosynthetic pathway of some novel 6-substituted benzophenanthridine alkaloids. In this study, a visible-light promoted biomimetic synthesis of 6-substituted benzophenanthridines was reported under photoredox-neutral conditions. α-Amino radical that derived from dihydrobenzophenanthridines was supposed to be the key intermediate in this visible-light promoted radical-type Michael addition reaction.
Nest: A Network Simulation and Prototyping Testbed

Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1989
Subjects: Computer science

description: This paper describes Nest, a graphical environment for distributed networked systems simulation and rapid-prototyping. Nest users can develop and test distributed systems and protocols (from crude models to actual system code) within simulated network scenarios. Nest represents an environment-based approach to simulation. Users view Nest as an extension of their standard UnixTM environment. Nest offers the generality of language-based simulation techniques and the efficiencies of model-based techniques. Users interact with Nest through standardized graphical interfaces. Nest permits the users to modify and reconfigure the simulation during execution. Thus, it is possible to study the dynamic response of a distributed system to failures or burst-loads. Nest is organized as a simulation server, responsible for execution of complex simulation scenarios and client monitors responsible for simulation control. The client/server model permits distribution of Nest over a network environment. This permits migration of simulations to powerful remote computational servers as well as development of a shared multi-site simulation/integration testbed. Nest is portable and extensible. It has been ported to virtually all Unix variants and distributed since 1987 to over 150 sites worldwide. It has been used in scores of studies ranging from communication protocols, to distributed databases and operating systems as well as distributed manufacturing systems.

description: A photonic force microscope comprises of an optically trapped micro-probe and a position detection system to track the motion of the probe. Signal collection for motion detection is often carried out using the backscattered light off the probe - however, this mode has problems of low S/N due to the small back-scattering cross-sections of the micro-probes typically used. The position sensors often used in these cases are quadrant photodetectors. To ensure maximum sensitivity of such detectors, it would help if the detector size matched with the detection beam radius after the condenser lens (which for backscattered detection would be the trapping objective itself). To suit this condition, we have used a miniature displacement sensor whose dimensions makes it ideal to work with 1:1 images of micron-sized trapped probes in the back-scattering detection mode. The detector is based on the quadrant photo-IC in the optical pick-up head of a compact disc player. Using this detector, we measured absolute displacements of an optically trapped 1.1 um probe with a resolution of ~10 nm for a bandwidth of 10 Hz at 95% significance without any sample or laser stabilization. We characterized our optical trap for different sized probes by measuring the power spectrum for each probe to 1% accuracy, and found that for 1.1 um diameter probes, the noise in our position measurement matched the thermal resolution limit for averaging times up to 10 ms. We also achieved a linear response range of around 385 nm with crosstalk between axes ~4% for 1.1 um diameter probes. The detector has extremely high bandwidth (few MHz) and low optical power threshold - other factors that can lead to it's widespread use in photonic force microscopy.
