description: Heading and position control system of ships has remained a challenging control problem. It is a nonlinear multiple input multiple output system. Moreover, the dynamics of the system vary with operating as well as environmental conditions. Conventionally, simple Proportional Integral Derivative controller is used which has well known limitations. Other conventional control techniques have also been investigated but they require an accurate mathematical model of a ship. Unfortunately, accuracy of mathematical models is very difficult to achieve. During the past few decades computational intelligence techniques such as artificial neural networks have been very successful when an accurate mathematical model is not available. Therefore, in this paper, an artificial neural network controller is proposed for heading and position control system. For simulation purposes, a mathematical model with four effective thrusters have been chosen to test the performance of the proposed controller. The final closed loop system has been analyzed and tested through simulation studies. The results are very encouraging.

description: Objective: Since 2000 numerous improvements have been made to the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, Incorporated (NASCAR®) driver restraint system, resulting in improved crash protection for motorsports drivers. Advancements have included seats, head and neck restraints (HNR), seat belt restraint systems, driver helmets and others. These enhancements have increased protection for drivers from severe crash loading. Extending protection to the driver's extremities remains challenging. While the drivers' legs are well contained for lateral and vertical crashes, they remain largely unrestrained in frontal and frontal oblique crashes. Method: Sled testing was conducted for the evaluation of an energy absorbing (EA) toe board material to be used as a countermeasure for leg and foot injuries. Testing included baseline rigid toe boards, tests with EA material covered toe boards and pretest positioning of the 50th percentile male frontal Hybrid III Anthropomorphic Test Device (ATD) lower extremities. ATD leg and foot instrumentation included foot acceleration and tibia forces and moments. Results: The sled test data were evaluated using established injury criteria for tibial plateau fractures, leg shaft fractures and calcaneus, talus, ankle & midfoot fractures. Conclusion: A polyurethane energy absorbing (EA) foam was found to be effective in limiting axial tibia force and foot accelerations when subjected to frontal impacts using the NASCAR motorsport restraint system.

description: Hybrid automatic repeat 1 request (HARQ) is a key enabler for ultrareliable communications. This paper optimizes transmit power for the initial transmission and the subsequent retransmissions of HARQ with either incremental redundancy or Chase combining, aiming to minimize the expected energy consumption given the target outage probability and the target latency. The main challenge is due to the fact that the outage probability is a complicated function of the power variables which are nested in successive convolutions. The existing works mostly use a classic upper bound to approximate the outage probability by assuming unbounded transmit power, then convert the original problem to a geometric programming (GP) problem. In contrast, we propose a novel and much tighter upper bound by taking the practical power limit into consideration. The new bound and the resulting new GP method are further extended to a broader group of channel models with various fading, multiple antennas, and multiple receivers. As shown in simulations, the GP method based on the new bound significantly outperforms the existing strategies that either fix transmit power or optimize power by the classic bounding technique.

description: Applying the Floquet theory, we developed the method to control excitonic properties of semiconductor quantum wells by a high-frequency electromagnetic field. It is demonstrated, particularly, that the field induces the blue shift of exciton emission from the quantum wells and narrows width of the corresponding spectral line. As a consequence, the field strongly modifies optical properties of the quantum wells and, therefore, can be used to tune characteristics of the optoelectronic devices based on them.

description: Conditional image generation is an active research topic including text2image and image translation. Recently image manipulation with linguistic instruction brings new challenges of multimodal conditional generation. However, traditional conditional image generation models mainly focus on generating high-quality and visually realistic images, and lack resolving the partial consistency between image and instruction. To address this issue, we propose an Increment Reasoning Generative Adversarial Network (IR-GAN), which aims to reason the consistency between visual increment in images and semantic increment in instructions. First, we introduce the word-level and instruction-level instruction encoders to learn user's intention from history-correlated instructions as semantic increment. Second, we embed the representation of semantic increment into that of source image for generating target image, where source image plays the role of referring auxiliary. Finally, we propose a reasoning discriminator to measure the consistency between visual increment and semantic increment, which purifies user's intention and guarantees the good logic of generated target image. Extensive experiments and visualization conducted on two datasets show the effectiveness of IR-GAN.

description: In Uyghur speech, consonant and vowel reduction are often encountered, especially in spontaneous speech with high speech rate, which will cause a degradation of speech recognition performance. To solve this problem, we propose an effective phone mask training method for Conformer-based Uyghur end-to-end (E2E) speech recognition. The idea is to randomly mask off a certain percentage features of phones during model training, which simulates the above verbal phenomena and facilitates E2E model to learn more contextual information. According to experiments, the above issues can be greatly alleviated. In addition, deep investigations are carried out into different units in masking, which shows the effectiveness of our proposed masking unit. We also further study the masking method and optimize filling strategy of phone mask. Finally, compared with Conformer-based E2E baseline without mask training, our model demonstrates about 5.51% relative Word Error Rate (WER) reduction on reading speech and 12.92% on spontaneous speech, respectively. The above approach has also been verified on test-set of open-source data THUYG-20, which shows 20% relative improvements.

Convective Line Shifts in the Spectra of Solar-Type Stars

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Doppler line shifts in the spectra of the Sun and stars with effective temperatures from 4800 to 6200 K were measured and the average connective (granulation) velocities were estimated. The absolute scale of the line shifts for the stars was established on the basis of the derived dependence of the shifts of solar lines on optical depth. For FGK solar-type stars, curves of convection velocities as a function of the height in the atmosphere in a large range of heights from 150 to 700 km were obtained for the first time. All these curves indicate a decrease in blue shifts with height, which means that the granulation velocities through the photosphere slow down to zero. In the lower chromosphere, red shifts of strong Mg I lines are observed, which indicate a change in the direction of granulation velocities to the opposite and confirm the effects of reversal of granulation at heights above 600 km. In cooler K stars, granulation shifts change with height on average from -50 to 100 m/s, while they change more sharply in hotter FG stars from -700 to 300 m/s. The gradient of the line shift curves increases with an increase in the effective temperature and a decrease in gravity, metallicity, and age of the star. The connective velocity of the star averaged over all analyzed heights increases from -90 to -560 m/s from colder to hotter stars. It correlates with macroturbulence, asymmetry of spectral lines, and the rotation velocity of the star. We also obtained the radial velocities of the stars and compared them with the SIMBAD data. Our analysis has shown that the individual granular velocities of the stars must be taken into account when determining the radial velocities.

description: 1. We will analyze the following Eye Tracking measures in the target (and source) word: total gaze distance covered, total gaze duration on ROI, first fixation duration, second fixation duration, regression path duration, skipping probability, word has first pass regression, number of fixations, pupil diameter.
Meaning we will create a linear regression model for each of the measures as the dependent variable, with mental state, condition and word type as independent variables.
2. We will interact the measures with mental-state scores and look for main effect of word type and PHQ level.
3. We hypothesize that tendency to depression will interact with reading time and various measures when processing sentimental stimuli at that point.
4. We hypothesize that mental-state scores of participants will affect the processing of the target word, suggesting different processing strategy.
5. Specifically, we expect a:
- Significant effect of PHQ level when processing a negative-surprise sentence, and the opposite effect when processing positive-surprise.
- Significant effect of sentence type for participant with high tendency to depression

Exploratory analysis, including personal bias (as modeled from word-probe task), additional various interactions and measures will be also performed.

description: We report a new strategy to immobilize a bromine source on the surface of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPs-DETA/Benzyl-Br3) leading to a magnetically recoverable catalyst, which exhibits high catalytic efficiency in oxidative coupling of thiols to the disulfides (89–98%). The Fe3O4 MNPs-DETA/Benzyl-Br3 catalyst was fabricated by anchoring 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane (CPTMS) on magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles, followed with N-benzylation and reaction with bromine in tetrachloridecarbon. The resulting nanocomposite was analyzed by a series of characterization techniques such as FT-IR, SEM, TGA, VSM and XRD. The catalyst could be recovered via magnetic attraction and could be recycled at least 5 times without appreciable decrease in activity.

description: Energy efficiency is critical for future sustainable cellular systems. Power saving optimization has been a key part of the fifth generation (5G) new radio specifications. For 5Gadvanced and future 6G, with the anticipation of a trillion internet of things (IoTs) devices with non-rechargeable or low-density batteries, device power efficiency is rather essential. There are numerous contributions from industry and academia which present the potential power saving gains of the various 5G power saving techniques; however, there is a lack of art on the performance cost paid to achieve such power saving gains. Therefore, this paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of the radio latency and reliability cost, which is lost due to a certain 5G new radio power saving feature. A thorough review of the state of-the-art 5G power saving techniques is introduced. Extensive system level simulations are performed to evaluate the latency and reliability cost of the considered power saving features. The paper offers valuable recommendations for supporting power efficient latency-critical traffic for beyond 5G-advanced systems.

Capacity Cost of Fulfilling the URLLC Performance in Industrial 5G New Radio Deployments
Creators: name: Esswie, Ali A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Signal Processing (eess.SP)
subject: FOS: Electrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineering

description: The development of the 5G new radio specifications has been derived by the the deterministic low latency use cases such as the ultra-reliable and low-latency communications (URLLC). A URLLC application requires a stringent radio latency and reliability performance, e.g., one-way radio latency of 1 ms with 99.999% success probability. Furthermore, there is a concurrent progressive demand for broadband capacity cellular applications, e.g., enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) use-cases. The coexistence among the URLLC and eMBB service classes over a single radio spectrum is a challenging task since achieving the tight URLLC radio targets typically results in a capacity loss. Hence, it is vital for telecom operators to understand the capacity cost of fulling the various URLLC requirements in order to sufficiently plan the corresponding pricing models. Hence, in this work, a comprehensive analysis of the system capacity loss is presented to achieve the various requirements of the different URLLC use-cases. An extensive set of realistic system level simulations is performed and introduced where valuable insights and system design recommendations on the URLLC-eMBB quality of service coexistence are presented.

description: Kohli P, Siver PA, Marsicano LJ, Hamer JS, Coffin AM. 2017. Assessment of long-term trends for management of Candlewood Lake, Connecticut, USA. Lake Reserve Manage. 00:00–00. Candlewood Lake, the largest lake in Connecticut, is a pumped-storage reservoir formed in the 1920s for hydropower generation. Since its inception, the lake has experienced shifts in water quality coupled with watershed development and, in the 1980s, the introduction and spread of the invasive macrophyte, Myriophyllum spicatum. In response, a monitoring program to track water quality and a winter drawdown program to mitigate growth of M. spicatum were initiated in 1985. Recently it was suggested that the drawdown program exacerbated eutrophication of the lake. To test this hypothesis, statistical analyses of the long-term (1985 to 2012) database was conducted with a focus on trophic-related variables. We examined the database using principal component analysis (PCA) and multivariate singular spectrum analysis (MSSA). MSSA is an extension of PCA for multivariate time series data that accounts for both temporal and cross-sectional dependencies. We found no evidence that the trophic condition declined, or that the drawdowns have deteriorated the water quality. Instead, we found that lower TS, TSIChl, and TSSD values corresponding with improved trophic conditions occurred in summers following deep drawdowns, while significantly higher values correlated with shallow and less effective drawdowns. Overall, there has been a modest improvement in the trophic condition over time, attributed to a combination of the winter drawdowns and management efforts. In contrast, a steady and significant increase in dissolved salts, likely due to enhanced use of road deicing treatments, was documented.

description: Objective: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease induced by many environmental factors. The inhalation of allergens and pollutants promotes the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading to airway inflammation, hyper-responsiveness, and remodeling in allergic asthma. The effects of asthma medications on ROS production are unclear. The present study investigated the anti-ROS effects of current asthma medications including inhaled corticosteroid (ICS; budesonide and fluticasone), leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA; montelukast), long-acting β2 agonists (LABAs; salmeterol and formoterol), and a new extra-LABA (indacaterol). Methods: The human monocyte cell line THP-1 cells were pre-treated with different concentrations of the asthma medications at different time points after hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) stimulation. H2O2 production was measured with DCFH-DA by flow cytometry. Results: Montelukast, fluticasone, and salmeterol suppressed H2O2-induced ROS production. Indacaterol enhanced H2O2-induced ROS production. Budesonide and formoterol alone had no anti-ROS effects, but the combination of these two drugs significantly suppressed H2O2-induced ROS production. Conclusions: Different asthma medications have different anti-ROS effects on monocytes. The combination therapy with LABA and ICS seemed not to be the only choice for asthma control. Montelukast may also be a good supplemental treatment for the poorly controlled asthma because of its powerful anti-ROS effects. Our findings provide a novel therapeutic view in asthma.

description: Chiral secondary alcohols are convenient mediator for the synthesis of biologically active compounds and natural products. In this study fifteen yeast strains belonging to three food originated yeast species Debaryomyces hansenii, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Hanseniaspora guilliermondii were tested for their capability for the asymmetric reduction of acetophenone to 1-phenylethanol as biocatalyst microorganisms. Of these strains, Debaryomyces hansenii P1 strain showed an effective asymmetric reduction ability. Under optimized conditions, substituted acetophenones were converted to the corresponding optically active secondary alcohols in up to 99% enantiomeric excess and at high conversion rates. This is the first report on the enantioselective reduction of acetophenone by D. hansenii P1 from pastırma, a fermented Turkish meat product. The preparative scale asymmetric bio reduction of 3-methoxy acetophenone 1g by D. hansenii P1 gave (R)-1-(3-methoxyphenyl) ethanol 2g 82% yield, and >99% enantiomeric excess. Compound 2g can be used for the synthesis of (+)-NPS-R-568 [3-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-[(1R)-1-(3-methoxyphenly) ethyl] propan-1-amine] which have a great potential for the treatment of primary and secondary hyper-parathyroidism. In addition, D. hansenii P1 successfully reduced acetophenone derivatives. This study showed that this yeast can be used industrially to produce enantiomerically pure chiral secondary alcohols, which can be easily converted to different functional groups.

description: Acoustic-to-articulatory inversion (AAI) is to obtain the movement of articulators from speech signals. Until now, achieving a speaker-independent AAI remains a challenge given the limited data. Besides, most current works only use audio speech as input, causing an inevitable performance bottleneck. To solve these problems, firstly, we pre-train a speech decomposition network to decompose audio speech into speaker embedding and content embedding as the new personalized speech features to adapt to the speaker-independent case. Secondly, to further improve the AAI, we propose a novel auxiliary feature network to estimate the lip auxiliary features from the above personalized speech features. Experimental results on three public datasets show that, compared with the state-of-the-art only using the audio speech feature, the proposed method reduces the average RMSE by 0.25 and increases the average correlation coefficient by 2.0% in the speaker-dependent case. More importantly, the average RMSE decreases by 0.29 and the average correlation coefficient increases by 5.0% in the speaker-independent case.

We present SciNoBo, a novel classification system of publications to predefined FoS taxonomies, leveraging the structural properties of a publication and its citations and references organised in a multilayer network. In contrast to other works, our system supports assignments of publications to multiple fields by considering their multidisciplinarity potential. By unifying publications and venues under a common multilayer network structure made up of citing and publishing relationships, classifications at the venue-level can be augmented with publication-level classifications. We evaluate SciNoBo on a publications' dataset extracted from Microsoft Academic Graph and we perform a comparative analysis against a state-of-the-art neural-network baseline. The results reveal that our proposed system is capable of producing high-quality classifications of publications.

description: Objective: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease induced by many environmental factors. The inhalation of allergens and pollutants promote the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production leading to airway inflammation, hyper-responsiveness and remodeling in allergic asthma. The effects of asthma medications on ROS production are unclear. The present study investigated the anti-ROS effects of current asthma medications including inhaled corticosteroid (ICS; budesonide and fluticasone), leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA; montelukast), long acting β2 agonists (LABAs; salmeterol and formoterol) and a new extra-LABA (indacaterol). Methods: The human monocyte cell line THP-1 cells were pre-treated with different concentrations of the asthma medications at different time-points after hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) stimulation. H2O2 production was measured with DCFH-DA by flow cytometry. Results: Montelukast, fluticasone and salmeterol suppressed H2O2-induced ROS production. Indacaterol enhanced H2O2-induced ROS production. Budesonide and formoterol alone had no anti-ROS effects, but the combination of these two drugs significantly suppressed H2O2-induced ROS production. Conclusions: Different asthma medications have different anti-ROS effects on monocytes. The combination therapy with LABA and ICS seemed not be the only choice for asthma control. Montelukast may be also a good supplemental treatment for the poorly-controlled asthma because of its powerful anti-ROS effects. Our findings provide a novel therapeutic view in asthma.

description: The current research regarding the Riemann zeros suggests the existence of a non-trivial algebraic/analytic structure on the set of Riemann zeros. The duality between primes and Riemann zeta function zeros suggests some new goals and aspects to be studied: {\em adelic duality} and the {\em POSet of prime numbers}. The article presents computational evidence of the structure of the imaginary parts $t$ of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function $ρ=1/2+it$, called in this article the {\em Riemann Spectrum}, using the study of their distribution. The novelty represents in considering the associated characters $p^{it}$, towards an algebraic point of view, than rather in the sense of Analytic Number Theory. This structure is tentatively interpreted in terms of adelic characters, and the duality of the rationals. Second, the POSet structure of prime numbers studied, is tentatively mirrored via duality in the Riemann spectrum. A direct study of the convergence of their Fourier series, along Pratt trees, is proposed. Further considerations, relating the Riemann Spectrum, adelic characters and distributions, in terms of Hecke idelic characters, local zeta integrals (Mellin transform) and $ω$-eigen-distributions, are explored following.

description: Tetrachloroethylene (perchloroethylene; PERC) is a high-production volume chemical and ubiquitous environmental contaminant that is hazardous to human health. Toxicity attributed to PERC is mediated through oxidative and glutathione (GSH) conjugation metabolites. The conjugation of PERC by glutathione-s-transferase to generate S-(1,2,2-trichlorovinyl) glutathione (TCVG), which is subsequently metabolized to form S-(1,2,2-trichlorovinyl)-L-cysteine (TCVC) is of special importance to human health. Specifically, TCVC may be metabolized to N-acetyl-S-(1,2,2-trichlorovinyl)-L-cysteine (NAcTCVC) which is excreted through urine, or to electrophilic metabolites that are nephrotoxic and mutagenic. Little is known regarding toxicokinetics of TCVG, TCVC, and NAcTCVC as analytical methods for simultaneous determination of these metabolites in tissues have not yet been reported. Hence, an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry-based method was developed for analysis of TCVG, TCVC, and NAcTCVC in liver, kidneys, serum, and urine. The method is rapid, sensitive, robust, and selective for detection all three analytes in every tissue examined, with limits of detection (LOD) ranging from 1.8 to 68.2 femtomoles on column, depending on the analyte and tissue matrix. This method was applied to quantify levels of TCVG, TCVC, and NAcTCVC in tissues from mice treated with PERC (10 to 1000 mg/kg, orally) with limits of quantitation (LOQ) of 1–2.5 pmol/g in liver, 1–10 pmol/g in kidney, 1–2.5 pmol/ml in serum, and 2.5–5 pmol/ml in urine. This method is useful for further characterization of the GSH conjugative pathway of PERC in vivo and improved understanding of PERC toxicity.

description: Исследовано население мелких млекопитающих высотных поясов растительности горных хребтов Среднего Приамурья — Тукурингра, Буреинский (южная часть), Большой Хехцир. Исследования проведены на территориях заповедников (Зейский, Хинганский, Бастак, Большехехцирский), что позволило выявить естественные закономерности организации животного населения. Основу населения горных склонов всего региона составляют 3 вида — восточноазиатская мышь, красно-серая и красная полевки, их соотношение в различных частях Среднего Приамурья и в различных высотных поясах растительности существенно изменяется. В южной части региона на предгорных равнинах и в нижних поясах доминируют лесостепные (восточная полевка, полевка Максимовича) или неморальные виды (восточноазиатская мышь), выше они уступают позицию доминанта бореальным (красно-серой полевке, участие красной полевки незначительно). На севере региона (хр. Тукурингра) основу населения на протяжении всего высотного профиля составляют красно-серая и красная полевки; восточноазиатская мышь встречается в основном в предгорьях, а доминирует только в островных дубовых лесах предгорий на крутых склонах южной экспозиции. В целом изменение в структуре высотно-поясных сообществ млекопитающих от нижних высотных поясов к верхним сходно с изменением структуры равнинных сообществ в направлении с юго-востока на северо-запад Среднего Приамурья.

description: With the deployment of 5G networks, standards organizations have started working on the design phase for sixth-generation (6G) networks. 6G networks will be immensely complex, requiring more deployment time, cost and management efforts. On the other hand, mobile network operators demand these networks to be intelligent, self-organizing, and cost-effective to reduce operating expenses (OPEX). Machine learning (ML), a branch of artificial intelligence (AI), is the answer to many of these challenges providing pragmatic solutions, which can entirely change the future of wireless network technologies. By using some case study examples, we briefly examine the most compelling problems, particularly at the physical (PHY) and link layers in cellular networks where ML can bring significant gains. We also review standardization activities in relation to the use of ML in wireless networks and future timeline on readiness of standardization bodies to adapt to these changes. Finally, we highlight major issues in ML use in the wireless technology, and provide potential directions to mitigate some of them in 6G wireless networks.
