description: We investigate the performance of a jet identification algorithm based on interaction networks (JEDI-net) to identify all-hadronic decays of high-momentum heavy particles produced at the LHC and distinguish them from ordinary jets originating from the hadronization of quarks and gluons. The jet dynamics are described as a set of one-to-one interactions between the jet constituents. Based on a representation learned from these interactions, the jet is associated to one of the considered categories. Unlike other architectures, the JEDI-net models achieve their performance without special handling of the sparse input jet representation, extensive pre-processing, particle ordering, or specific assumptions regarding the underlying detector geometry. The presented models give better results with less model parameters, offering interesting prospects for LHC applications.

description: We consider properties of a covariant worldvolume action for a system of N coincident Dp-branes in D=(p+2) dimensional space-time (so called codimension one branes). In the case of N coincident D0-branes in D=2 we then find a generalization of this action to a model which includes fermionic degrees of freedom and is invariant under target-space supersymmetry and worldline kappa-symmetry. We find that the type IIA D=2 superalgebra generating the supersymmetry transformations of the ND0-brane system acquires a non-trivial "central extension" due to a nonlinear contribution of U(N) adjoint scalar fields. Peculiarities of space-time symmetries of coincident Dp-branes are discussed.

description: Complex network theory provides a unifying framework for the study of structured dynamic systems. The current literature emphasizes a widely reported phenomenon of intermittent interaction among network vertices. In this paper, we introduce a complex network model that considers the stochastic switching of individuals between activated and quiescent states at power-law rates and the corresponding evolutionary dynamics. By using the Markov chain and renewal theory, we discover a homogeneous stationary distribution of activated sizes in the network with power-law activating patterns and infer some statistical characteristics. To better understand the effect of power-law activating patterns, we study the two-person-two-strategy evolutionary game dynamics, demonstrate the absorbability of strategies, and obtain the critical cooperation conditions for prisoner's dilemmas in homogeneous networks without mutation. The evolutionary dynamics in real networks are also discussed. Our results provide a new perspective to analyze and understand social physics in time-evolving network systems.

description: Recently developed technology to differentiate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into human induced neurons (iNs) provides an exciting opportunity to study the function of human neurons. However, functional characterisations of iNs have been hampered by the reliance on mass culturing protocols which do not allow assessment of synaptic release characteristics and neuronal morphology at the individual cell level with quantitative precision. Here, we have developed for the first time a protocol to generate autaptic cultures of iPSC-derived iNs. We show that our method efficiently generates mature, autaptic iNs with robust spontaneous and action potential-driven synaptic transmission. The synaptic responses are sensitive to modulation by metabotropic receptor agonists as well as potentiation by acute phorbol ester application. Finally, we demonstrate loss of evoked and spontaneous release by Unc13A knockdown. This culture system provides a versatile platform allowing for quantitative and integrative assessment of morphophysiological and molecular parameters underlying human synaptic transmission.

description: The main obstacle in attempts to construct a consistent quantum gravity is the absence of independent flat time. This can in principle be cured by going out to higher dimensions. The modern paradigm assumes that the fundamental theory of everything is some form of string theory living in space of more than four dimensions. We advocate another possibility that the fundamental theory is a form of D=4 higher-derivative gravity. This class of theories has a nice feature of renormalizability so that perturbative calculations are feasible. There are also finite N=4 supersymmetric conformal supergravity theories. This possibility is particularly attractive. Einstein's gravity is obtained in a natural way as an effective low-energy theory. The N=1 supersymmetric version of the theory has a natural higher-dimensional interpretation due to Ogievetsky and Sokatchev, which involves embedding of our curved Minkowsky space-time manifold into flat 8-dimensional space. Assuming that a variant of the finite N=4 theory also admit a similar interpretation, this may eventually allow one to construct consistent quantum theory of gravity. We argue, however, that even though future gravity theory will probably use higher dimensions as construction scaffolds, its physical content and meaning should refer to 4 dimensions where observer lives.

description: Transfer learning aims to learn robust classifiers for the target domain by leveraging knowledge from a source domain. Since the source and the target domains are usually from different distributions, existing methods mainly focus on adapting the cross-domain marginal or conditional distributions. However, in real applications, the marginal and conditional distributions usually have different contributions to the domain discrepancy. Existing methods fail to quantitatively evaluate the different importance of these two distributions, which will result in unsatisfactory transfer performance. In this paper, we propose a novel concept called Dynamic Distribution Adaptation (DDA), which is capable of quantitatively evaluating the relative importance of each distribution. DDA can be easily incorporated into the framework of structural risk minimization to solve transfer learning problems. On the basis of DDA, we propose two novel learning algorithms: (1) Manifold Dynamic Distribution Adaptation (MDDA) for traditional transfer learning, and (2) Dynamic Distribution Adaptation Network (DDAN) for deep transfer learning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MDDA and DDAN significantly improve the transfer learning performance and setup a strong baseline over the latest deep and adversarial methods on digits recognition, sentiment analysis, and image classification. More importantly, it is shown that marginal and conditional distributions have different contributions to the domain divergence, and our DDA is able to provide good quantitative evaluation of their relative importance which leads to better performance. We believe this observation can be helpful for future research in transfer learning.

$ϕ^4$ Theory Hamiltonian for Fluids: Application to the surface tension near the critical point

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We show that the surface tension of fluid near the critical point may be correctly described by taking into consideration the microscopic structure of the system using a ϕ4 field theory. We revise the theory of the surface tension near criticality to take into account a microscopic structure of the fluid. Focusing on the case of the Lennard-Jones fluid, we express the surface tension in terms of the compressibility of the reference hard-core system and its derivatives with respect to density. We demonstrate that the obtained analytical microscopic expression for the surface tension near the critical point is in a good agreement with numerical experiments, which emphasizes the impact of microscopic structure on the critical behavior of the surface tension in fluids. Our analysis provides a basis for studying the surface tension in small-volume systems important in many technological applications.

description: Sarcoidosis is a non-caseating inflammatory chronic systemic disease of unknown etiology, which may affect one or more organs. Paranasal sinuses involvement occurs sporadic in sarcoidosis. We report a patient with a medical history of sarcoidosis involving her lungs, liver, and lymphatic system for four years who now presented with nasal and sinuses symptoms. The primary treatment with local cortisone showed no improvement. Computed tomography (CT) scan of the paranasal sinuses (PNS) revealed signs of chronic pansinusitis. She was successfully treated with endoscopic sinonasal surgery. Subsequent histological analysis confirmed the involvement of the PNS with sarcoidosis. Her follow-up during the last 6 months was without recurrence.

description: Mid-rapidity transverse mass spectra and multiplicity densities of charged and neutral kaons are reported for Au+Au collisions at $\snn$=130 GeV at RHIC. The spectra are exponential in transverse mass, with an inverse slope of about 280 MeV in central collisions. The multiplicity densities for these particles scale with the negative hadron pseudo-rapidity density. The charged kaon to pion ratios are $K^+/π^- = 0.161 \pm 0.002 {\rm (stat)} \pm 0.024 {\rm (syst)}$ and $K^-/π^- = 0.146 \pm 0.002 {\rm (stat)} \pm 0.022 {\rm (syst)}$ for the most central collisions. The $K^+/π^-$ ratio is lower than the same ratio observed at the SPS while the $K^-/π^-$ is higher than the SPS result. Both ratios are enhanced by about 50% relative to p+p and $\bar{\rm p}$+p collision data at similar energies.

description: Molecular MRI is a promising in-vivo modality to detect and quantify morphological and molecular vessel-wall changes in atherosclerosis. The combination of different molecular biomarkers may improve the risk stratification of patients. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of simultaneous visualization and quantification of plaque-burden and inflammatory activity by dual-probe molecular MRI in a mouse-model of progressive atherosclerosis and in response-to-therapy. Homozygous apolipoprotein E knockout mice (ApoE-/-) were fed a high-fat-diet (HFD) for up to four-months prior to MRI of the brachiocephalic-artery. To assess response-to-therapy, a statin was administered for the same duration. MR imaging was performed before and after administration of an elastin-specific gadolinium-based and a macrophage-specific iron-oxide-based probe. Following in-vivo MRI, samples were analyzed using histology, immunohistochemistry, inductively-coupled-mass-spectrometry and laser-inductively-coupled-mass-spectrometry. In atherosclerotic-plaques, intraplaque expression of elastic-fibers and inflammatory activity were not directly linked. While the elastin-specific probe demonstrated the highest accumulation in advanced atherosclerotic-plaques after four-months of HFD, the iron-oxide-based probe showed highest accumulation in early atherosclerotic-plaques after two-months of HFD. In-vivo measurements for the elastin and iron-oxide-probe were in good agreement with ex-vivo histopathology (Elastica-van-Giesson stain: y = 298.2 + 5.8, R2 = 0.83, p

description: A science is defined by a set of encyclopedic knowledge related to facts or phenomena following rules or evidenced by experimentally-driven observations. Computer Science and in particular computer networks is a relatively new scientific domain maturing over years and adopting the best practices inherited from more fundamental disciplines. The design of past, present and future networking components and architectures have been assisted, among other methods, by experimentally-driven research and in particular by the deployment of test platforms, usually named as testbeds. However, often experimentally-driven networking research used scattered methodologies, based on ad-hoc, small-sized testbeds, producing hardly repeatable results. We believe that computer networks needs to adopt a more structured methodology, supported by appropriate instruments, to produce credible experimental results supporting radical and incremental innovations. This paper reports lessons learned from the design and operation of test platforms for the scientific community dealing with digital infrastructures. We introduce the SLICES initiative as the outcome of several years of evolution of the concept of a networking test platform transformed into a scientific instrument. We address the challenges, requirements and opportunities that our community is facing to manage the full research-life cycle necessary to support a scientific methodology.

description: We define discounted differential privacy, as an alternative to (conventional) differential privacy, to investigate privacy of evolving datasets, containing time series over an unbounded horizon. We use privacy loss as a measure of the amount of information leaked by the reports at a certain fixed time. We observe that privacy losses are weighted equally across time in the definition of differential privacy, and therefore the magnitude of privacy-preserving additive noise must grow without bound to ensure differential privacy over an infinite horizon. Motivated by the discounted utility theory within the economics literature, we use exponential and hyperbolic discounting of privacy losses across time to relax the definition of differential privacy under continual observations. This implies that privacy losses in distant past are less important than the current ones to an individual. We use discounted differential privacy to investigate privacy of evolving datasets using additive Laplace noise and show that the magnitude of the additive noise can remain bounded under discounted differential privacy. We illustrate the quality of privacy-preserving mechanisms satisfying discounted differential privacy on smart-meter measurement time-series of real households, made publicly available by Ausgrid (an Australian electricity distribution company).

description: This article, which appeared in the May-June 2003 issue of Grace in Focus, presents the testimony of Dr. Roscoe Barnes III. It shows how he came to faith in Christ in the mid-1970s and later embraced Free Grace theology and the belief in eternal security. The article includes his spiritual and emotional struggles as a result of poor theology and legalistic teachings in the Pentecostal church. Barnes writes that his eyes were opened while reading the book of Romans. He explains that his life was changed by a number of Bible passages, especially Romans 3:21-22: "But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction."

description: In Weighted Model Counting (WMC) we assign weights to Boolean literals and we want to compute the sum of the weights of the models of a Boolean function where the weight of a model is the product of the weights of its literals. WMC was shown to be particularly effective for performing inference in graphical models, with a complexity of $O(n2^w)$ where $n$ is the number of variables and $w$ is the treewidth. In this paper, we propose a quantum algorithm for performing WMC, Quantum WMC (QWMC), that modifies the quantum model counting algorithm to take into account the weights. In turn, the model counting algorithm uses the algorithms of quantum search, phase estimation and Fourier transform. In the black box model of computation, where we can only query an oracle for evaluating the Boolean function given an assignment, QWMC solves the problem approximately with a complexity of $Θ(2^{\frac{n}{2}})$ oracle calls while classically the best complexity is $Θ(2^n)$, thus achieving a quadratic speedup.

description: Significant gravitational wave emission is expected from gamma-ray bursts arising from compact stellar mergers, and possibly also from bursts associated with fast-rotating massive stellar core collapses. These models have in common a high angular rotation rate, and observations provide evidence for jet collimation of the photon emission, with properties depending on the polar angle, which may also be of relevance for X-ray flashes. Here we consider the gravitational wave emission and its polarization as a function of angle which is expected from such sources. We discuss possible correlations between the burst photon luminosity, or the delay between gravitational wave bursts and X-ray flashes, and the polarization degree of the gravitational waves.

description: In this paper, the gravitational deflection of relativistic massive particles up to the second post-Minkowskian order by static and spherically symmetric wormholes is investigated in the weak-field limit. These wormholes include the Janis-Newman-Winicour wormhole, a class of zero Ricci scalar scalar-tensor wormholes, and a class of charged Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton wormholes. With the Jacobi metric approach, the Gauss-Bonnet theorem is employed to study the gravitational deflection. In this scheme, the deflection angle as a topological effect is considered. Moreover, we analyze the influence of the spacetime parameters on the results.

description: Near surface indium arsenide quantum wells have recently attracted a great deal of interest since they can be interfaced epitaxially with superconducting films and have proven to be a robust platform for exploring mesoscopic and topological superconductivity. In this work, we present magnetotransport properties of two-dimensional electron gases confined to an indium arsenide quantum well near the surface. The electron mass extracted from the envelope of the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations shows an average effective mass $m^{*}$ = 0.04 at low magnetic field. Complementary to our magnetotransport study, we employed cyclotron resonance measurements and extracted the electron effective mass in the ultra high magnetic field regime. Our measurements show that the effective mass depends on magnetic field in this regime. The data can be understood by considering a model that includes non-parabolicity of the indium arsenide conduction bands.

description: Schrödinger equation with given, {\it a priori} known current is formulated. A non-zero current density is maintained in the quantum system via a subsidiary condition imposed by vector, local Lagrange multiplier. Constrained minimization of the total energy on the manifold of an arbitrary current density topology results into a non-linear self-consistent Schrödinger equation. The applications to electronic transport in two-terminal molecular devices are developed and new macroscopic definition of a molecular current-voltage characteristic is proposed. The Landauer formula for the conductance of an ideal one-dimensional lead is obtained within the approach. The method is examined by modeling of current carrying states of one-dimensional harmonic oscillator.

description: This study is performed with the aim of gaining insights into the possible applicability of the quark-hadron continuity concept, not only in the idealized case of three-flavor symmetric quark matter, but also for the transition from neutron matter to two-flavor quark matter. A key issue is the continuity between neutron superfluidity and a corresponding superfluid quark phase produced by $d$-quark pairing. Symmetry arguments are developed and relevant dynamical mechanisms are analyzed. It is pointed out that the $^3P_2$ superfluidity in dense neutron matter has a direct analogue in the $^3P_2$ pairing of $d$-quarks in two-flavor quark matter. This observation supports the idea that the quark-hadron continuity hypothesis may be valid for such systems. Possible implications for neutron stars are briefly discussed.

description: The study of noncommutative solitons is greatly facilitated if the field equations are integrable, i.e. result from a linear system. For the example of a modified but integrable U(n) sigma model in 2+1 dimensions we employ the dressing method to construct explicit multi-soliton configurations on noncommutative R^{2,1}. These solutions, abelian and nonabelian, feature exact time-dependence for any value of the noncommutativity parameter theta and describe various lumps of finite energy in relative motion. We discuss their scattering properties and prove asymptotic factorization for large times.

description: BACKGROUND: Patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are treated over a long period of time by physicians and therapists from various institutions collaborating within a multidisciplinary team. Usually, medical records detailing the diagnoses and treatment regimens are long and extensive. Brief overviews of relevant diagnostic and treatment data in the form of a patient passport are currently missing in routine care for patients with CVD. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a patient passport (the Kardio-Pass) based on the needs of patients who had undergone cardiac rehabilitation, and of healthcare professionals. METHODS: A mixed method design was adopted consisting of an explorative qualitative phase followed by a quantitative evaluation phase. Interviews with patients and experts were conducted to develop the Kardio-Pass. CVD rehabilitees (N = 150) were asked to evaluate the passport using a semi-standardized written questionnaire. RESULTS: Patients and experts who were interviewed in the qualitative study phase considered the following passport contents to be particularly important: documentation of findings and diagnoses, cardiac diagnostics and intervention, medication plan, risk factors for heart disease, signs of a heart attack and what to do in an emergency. During the evaluation phase, 93 rehabilitees (response rate: 62%) completed the questionnaire. The Kardio-Pass achieved high overall approval: All respondents considered the information contained in the passport to be trustworthy. The professionalism and the design of the passport were rated very highly by 93 and 92% of participants, respectively. Use of the Kardio-Pass prompted 53% of participants to regularly attend follow-up appointments. The most common reasons for non-use were a lack of support from the attending doctor, failure by the patient to make entries in the passport, and loss of the passport. CONCLUSIONS: By documenting the course of cardiac diseases, the patient passport pools all medical data-from diagnosis to treatment and aftercare-in a concise manner. Rehabilitees who used the cardiac passport rated it as a helpful tool for documenting follow-up data. However, with regard to this explorative study there is a need for further research, particularly on whether the patient passport can improve heart patient care.

description: We have used existing data on the one-proton-removal cross section of 9C at 285 MeV/u and Glauber model calculations to extract the asymptotic normalization coefficient for the wave function of the last proton in the ground state of 9C. The calculations are done first using folded potentials starting from two different effective nucleon-nucleon interactions and second in the optical limit using three nucleon-nucleon interactions, and the results are found to be consistent, with no new parameters adjusted. We find C^2(p3/2)+C^2(p1/2)=1.22+/- fm-1. From this result we obtain the astrophysical factor for the proton radiative capture reaction 8B(p,gamma)9C as S_18(0)=46+/-6 eVb. The calculated energy dependence of the astrophysical S-factor for the energy region Ecm=0-0.8 MeV and the reaction rates for T_9=0-1 are included.

description: Research and therapeutic applications create a high demand for primary human hepatocytes. The limiting factor for their utilization is the availability of metabolically active hepatocytes in large quantities. Centrifugation through Percoll, which is commonly performed during hepatocyte isolation, has so far not been systematically evaluated in the scientific literature. 27 hepatocyte isolations were performed using a two-step perfusion technique on tissue obtained from partial liver resections. Cells were seeded with or without having undergone the centrifugation step through 25% Percoll. Cell yield, function, purity, viability and rate of bacterial contamination were assessed over a period of 6 days. Viable yield without Percoll purification was 42.4 × 10^6 (SEM ± 4.6 × 10^6) cells/g tissue. An average of 59% of cells were recovered after Percoll treatment. There were neither significant differences in the functional performance of cells, nor regarding presence of non-parenchymal liver cells. In five cases with initial viability of <80%, viability was significantly increased by Percoll purification (71.6 to 87.7%, p = 0.03). Considering our data and the massive cell loss due to Percoll purification, we suggest that this step can be omitted if the initial viability is high, whereas low viabilities can be improved by Percoll centrifugation.

description: deal.II is a state-of-the-art finite element library focused on generality, dimension-independent programming, parallelism, and extensibility. Herein, we outline its primary design considerations and its sophisticated features such as distributed meshes, $hp$-adaptivity, support for complex geometries, and matrix-free algorithms. But deal.II is more than just a software library: It is also a diverse and worldwide community of developers and users, as well as an educational platform. We therefore also discuss some of the technical and social challenges and lessons learned in running a large community software project over the course of two decades.

description: Background: Patient–physician communication and textual health information are central to health care. Yet, how well patients understand their physicians and written materials is under-studied. Objectives: Focusing on outpatient health care in Germany, the aim of this research was to assess patients’ levels of understanding oral and written health information and to identify associations with socioeconomic variables. Methods: This analysis drew on a 2017 health survey (n=6,105 adults 18 years of age and above). Measures for the quality of patient–physician communication were derived from the Ask Me 3 program questions for consultations with general practitioners (GPs) and specialists (SPs), and for textual health information via a question on the comprehensibility of written materials. Correlations with socioeconomic variables were explored using bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses. Results: Over 90% of all respondents reported that they had understood the GP’s and SP’s explanations. A lack of understanding was most notably correlated with patients’ selfreported very poor health (odds ratio [OR]: 5.19; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.23–12.10), current health problem (OR: 6.54, CI: 1.70–25.12) and older age (65 years and above, OR: 2.97, CI: 1.10–8.00). Fewer patients reported that they understood written materials well (86.7% for last visit at GP, 89.7% for last visit at SP). Difficulties in understanding written materials were strongly correlated with basic education (OR: 4.20, CI: 2.76–6.39) and older age (65 years and above, OR: 2.66, CI: 1.43–4.96). Conclusions: In order to increase patients’ understanding of health information and reduce inequalities among patient subgroups, meeting the communication needs of patients of older age, low educational status and with poor health is essential.

description: A vectorial analysis of magnetic resonance spectrometers, based on traveling wave resonators and including the reference arm and the automatic control of frequency, has been developed. The proposed model, valid also for stationary wave resonators, gives the response function of the spectrometer for any working condition, including scalar detectors with arbitrary response law and arbitrary excitation frequency. The purely dispersive and purely absorptive linear responses are discussed in detail for different scalar detectors. The developed approach allows for optimizing the performances of the spectrometer and for obtaining the intrinsic lineshape of the sample in a very broad range of working conditions. More complex setups can be modeled following the proposed scheme.

description: This paper examines the economics of proposed Ruataniwha Dam. The paper finds: 1. For private investors to get a commercial return implies a water price that is uneconomic to farmers. If this is the case, the dam requires a substantial subsidy. 2. If the intention is to facilitate high intensity dairy units, then simply subsidising maize silage or palm kernel exfoliator (PKE) is a simpler and more flexible option. 3. If the Dam was to proceed, it should do so as a farmer-owned and underwritten venture – as this would align commercial risk and reward underpinned by a tangible bottom-line.
