description: In recent years, the Araliaceae plants have been widely used in the planning of urban garden and road green space. China is rich in Araliaceae plant resources and Araliaceae plants are outstanding in form, but their ornamental value is less studied. Through the statistical survey of the germplasm resources of Araliaceae plants in southeastern Tibet, and the research and analysis of their functions and ornamental characteristics, this paper concluded that the Araliaceae plants in southeastern Tibet have high ornamental value, and 12 varieties of Araliaceae plants can be used in gardens and have great research and development significance. Finally, it came up with recommendations for the collection and protection, introduction and breeding, and garden application of Araliaceae plant resources.
Three-loop Phi-derivable Approximation in QED

description: In this paper we examine Phi-derivable approximations in QED. General theorems tell us that the gauge dependence of the n-loop Phi-derivable approximation shows up at order g^(2n) where g is the coupling constant. We consider the gauge dependence of the two-loop Phi-derivable approximation to the Debye mass and show that it is of order e^4 as expected. We solve the three-loop Phi-derivable approximation in QED by expanding sum-integrals in powers of e^2 and m/T, where m is the Debye mass which satisfies a variational gap equation. The results for the pressure and the Debye mass are accurate to order e^5.

A \textbf{36}, 8297, (2003)] to model nonconservative systems with fractional derivatives. It was previously hoped that using fractional derivatives in an action would allow us to derive a single retarded equation of motion using a variational principle. It is proven that, under certain reasonable assumptions, the method of Dreisigmeyer and Young fails.

description: The diversity of T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoires is achieved by a combination of two intrinsically stochastic steps: random receptor generation by VDJ recombination, and selection based on the recognition of random self-peptides presented on the major histocompatibility complex. These processes lead to a large receptor variability within and between individuals. However, the characterization of the variability is hampered by the limited size of the sampled repertoires. We introduce a new software tool SONIA to facilitate inference of individual-specific computational models for the generation and selection of the TCR beta chain (TRB) from sequenced repertoires of 651 individuals, separating and quantifying the variability of the two processes of generation and selection in the population. We find not only that most of the variability is driven by the VDJ generation process, but there is a large degree of consistency between individuals with the inter-individual variance of repertoires being about 2% of the intra-individual variance. Known viral-specific TCRs follow the same generation and selection statistics as all TCRs.

description: The Hamiltonian of mean force is a widely used concept to describe the modification of the usual canonical Gibbs state for a quantum system whose coupling strength with the thermal bath is non-negligible. Here we perturbatively derive general approximate expressions for the Hamiltonians of mean force in the weak-coupling approximation and in the high-temperature one. We numerically analyse the accuracy of the corresponding expressions and show that the precision of the Bloch-Redfield equantum master equation can be improved if we replace the original system Hamiltonian by the Hamiltonian of mean force.

description: We study the mixing and dissipation properties of the advection-diffusion equation with diffusivity $0 < κ\ll 1$ and advection by a class of random velocity fields on $\mathbb T^d$, $d=\{2,3\}$, including solutions of the 2D Navier-Stokes equations forced by sufficiently regular-in-space, non-degenerate white-in-time noise. We prove that the solution almost surely mixes exponentially fast uniformly in the diffusivity $κ$. Namely, that there is a deterministic, exponential rate (independent of $κ$) such that all mean-zero $H^1$ initial data decays exponentially fast in $H^{-1}$ at this rate with probability one. This implies almost-sure enhanced dissipation in $L^2$. Specifically that there is a deterministic, uniform-in-$κ$, exponential decay in $L^2$ after time $t \gtrsim |\log κ|$. Both the $O(|\log κ|)$ time-scale and the uniform-in-$κ$ exponential mixing are optimal for Lipschitz velocity fields and, to our knowledge, are the first rigorous examples of velocity fields satisfying these properties (deterministic or stochastic). This work is also a major step in our program on scalar mixing and Lagrangian chaos necessary for a rigorous proof of the Batchelor power spectrum of passive scalar turbulence.

description: Object detection is an important task in remote sensing image analysis. To reduce the computational complexity of redundant information and improve the efficiency of image processing, visual saliency models have been widely applied in this field. In this paper, a novel saliency detection model based on Contrast-weighted Dictionary Learning (CDL) is proposed for remote sensing images. Specifically, the proposed CDL learns salient and non-salient atoms from positive and negative samples to construct a discriminant dictionary, in which a contrast-weighted term is proposed to encourage the contrast-weighted patterns to be present in the learned salient dictionary while discouraging them from being present in the non-salient dictionary. Then, we measure the saliency by combining the coefficients of the sparse representation (SR) and reconstruction errors. Furthermore, by using the proposed joint saliency measure, a variety of saliency maps are generated based on the discriminant dictionary. Finally, a fusion method based on global gradient optimization is proposed to integrate multiple saliency maps. Experimental results on four datasets demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.

description: Parton distributions in the small $x$ region are numerically predicted by using a modified DGLAP equation with the GRV-like input distributions. We find that gluon recombination at twist-4 level obviously suppresses the rapid growth of parton densities with $x$ decrease. We show that before the saturation scale $Q^2_s$ is reached, saturation and partial saturation appear in the small $x$ behavior of parton distributions in nucleus and free proton, respectively. The antishadowing contributions to the saturation phenomena are also discussed.

description: In order to explore the inhibitory effects of Prunus mume, Crataegus pinnatifida and Coptis chinensis on Vibrio parahaemolyticus and its biofilm in vitro, the agar diffusion method was applied. These three Chinese herbal medicines had different inhibitory effects on V. parahaemolyticus. The inhibition zone of C. pinnatifida to V. parahaemolyticus was (15.25 ± 0.53) mm, and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of C. pinnatifida on V. parahaemolyticus were both 31.25 mg/mL; the inhibition zone of C. chinensis to V. parahaemolyticus was (18.08 ± 0.10) mm, and the MIC and MBC of C. chinensis on V. parahaemolyticus were both 15.63 mg/mL; the inhibition zone of P. mume to V. parahaemolyticus was (28.99 ± 0.47) mm, and the MIC and MBC of P. mume on V. parahaemolyticus were both 7.81 mg/mL. The effects of three traditional Chinese medicines on the biofilm formation of V. parahaemolyticus were tested by MTT colorimetric method using methylthiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT). P. mume, C. pinnatifida and C. chinensis have significant inhibitory effects on V. parahaemolyticus biofilm and their MIC are 7.81 mg/mL, 3.125 mg/mL, and 62.5 mg/mL, respectively (P < 0.01). The experimental results are expected to provide certain references for the development of new fishery drugs.

description: Complex magnetic order arises due to the competition of different interactions between the magnetic moments. Recently, there has been an increased interest in such states not only to unravel the fundamental physics involved, but also with regards to applications exploiting their unique interplay with moving electrons. Whereas it is the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) that has attracted much attention because of its nature to induce non-collinear magnetic order including magnetic-field stabilized skyrmions, it is the frustration of exchange interactions that can drive magnetic order down to the nano-scale. On top of that, interactions between multiple spins can stabilize two-dimensional magnetic textures as zero-field ground states, known as multi-Q states. Here, we introduce a two-dimensional itinerant magnet with various competing atomic-scale magnetic phases. Using spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy we observe several zero-field uniaxial or hexagonal nano-scale magnetic states. First-principles calculations together with an atomistic spin model reveal that these states are stabilized by the interplay of frustrated exchange and higher-order interactions while the DMI is weak. Unexpectedly, it is found that not only non-collinear magnetic states arise, but that higher-order interactions can also lead to collinear nano-scale multi-Q states.

description: Temperature effects on the neutron matter equation of state are investigated in the framework of chiral effective field theory. Latest, state-of-the-art chiral two-nucleon forces are applied from third to fifth order in the chiral expansion together with chiral three-nucleon forces, allowing for a determination of the truncation error of the theoretical predictions. The thermodynamic quantities considered include the chemical potential, the internal energy, the entropy, and the free energy. In general, good order-by-order convergence of all predictions is observed. As to be expected, temperature effects are largest at low density. The temperature dependence of the chiral three-nucleon force turns out to be weak.

description: The aim of this study was to develop a portable optical instrument to measure the scavenging capacity of standard antioxidants. The developed instrument performed on-site assays for four antioxidant capacities, namely 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl free radical scavenging activity, 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) free radical scavenging activity, total phenol content, and total flavonoid content. Because each item required distinct wavelengths and operating procedures for detection, the developed instrument featured automatic, high-speed, and multi-function capabilities. The results revealed that the correlation between the absorbance values determined using the proposed instrument and a commercial spectrophotometer ranged from 0.94 to 0.9997 based on assays of the four antioxidant capacities. Hence, the results of the proposed instrument were strongly correlated with those of the commercial spectrophotometer. This instrument provides a low-cost, portable, and rapid platform for on-site antioxidant scavenging capacity assays.

description: Fine-grained facial expression manipulation is a challenging problem, as fine-grained expression details are difficult to be captured. Most existing expression manipulation methods resort to discrete expression labels, which mainly edit global expressions and ignore the manipulation of fine details. To tackle this limitation, we propose an end-to-end expression-guided generative adversarial network (EGGAN), which utilizes structured latent codes and continuous expression labels as input to generate images with expected expressions. Specifically, we adopt an adversarial autoencoder to map a source image into a structured latent space. Then, given the source latent code and the target expression label, we employ a conditional GAN to generate a new image with the target expression. Moreover, we introduce a perceptual loss and a multi-scale structural similarity loss to preserve identity and global shape during generation. Extensive experiments show that our method can manipulate fine-grained expressions, and generate continuous intermediate expressions between source and target expressions.

description: Dynamics of complex social systems has often been described in the framework of temporal networks, where links are considered to exist only at the moment of interaction between nodes. Such interaction patterns are not only driven by internal interaction mechanisms, but also affected by environmental changes. To investigate the impact of the environmental changes on the dynamics of temporal networks, we analyze several face-to-face interaction datasets using the multiscale entropy (MSE) method to find that the observed temporal correlations can be categorized according to the environmental similarity of datasets such as classes and break times in schools. By devising and studying a temporal network model considering a periodically changing environment as well as a preferential activation mechanism, we numerically show that our model could successfully reproduce various empirical results by the MSE method in terms of multiscale temporal correlations. Our results demonstrate that the environmental changes can play an important role in shaping the dynamics of temporal networks when the interactions between nodes are influenced by the environment of the systems.

description: Many extensions of the Standard Model have to face the problem of new unsuppressed baryon-number violating interactions. In supersymmetry, the simplest way to solve this problem is to assume R-parity conservation. As a result, the lightest supersymmetric particle becomes stable and a well-motivated dark matter candidate. In this paper, we show that solving the problem of baryon number violation in non supersymmetric grand unified theories (GUT's) in warped higher-dimensional spacetime can lead to a stable Kaluza-Klein particle. This exotic particle has gauge quantum numbers of a right-handed neutrino, but carries fractional baryon-number and is related to the top quark within the higher-dimensional GUT. A combination of baryon-number and SU(3) color ensures its stability. Its relic density can easily be of the right value for masses in the 10 GeV--few TeV range. An exciting aspect of these models is that the entire parameter space will be tested at near future dark matter direct detection experiments. Other exotic GUT partners of the top quark are also light and can be produced at high energy colliders with distinctive signatures.

description: Cotton, peanuts, and flue-cured tobacco have been produced under programs designed to control production. Thus, farmers have not been free to plant unlimited acreages of these crops. Program changes have been made to adjust production to changing market conditions which affect gross revenue to producers and, consequently, income in producing. areas. Technology, weather, and alternatives in conjunction with agricultural programs also affect gross revenue and net income.

description: Rice has been the main staple food and important to the economy of Thailand. As the country is becoming more developed toward industrialization, the contribution of agricultural sector including the rice sector becomes less to the GDP. Nevertheless, nearly 40 percent of the population depends on agriculture for their living and 70 per cent of them are in rice sector. As Thailand has sent the goal for Thailand 4.0 using advanced technology and smart farming to release itself from the middle income trap, this paper describes the historical background and current situations of Thai rice economy, and discussing its strategic plans to manage current challenges.

description: A simple and fast method for determination of cephalexin using test papers with immobilized Fehling's reagent is reported. Color scales for the naked-eye determination of cephalexin were constructed. Based on RGB-analysis linear correlations between the intensities of the blue and green color channels, the concentration of cephalexin were obtained. Furthermore, the possibility of using radar charts for the analyte was investigated. For detection of antibiotic, the authors’ application for smartphone «Digital colorimetric test» was created. After loading a photo of the paper-based device, the application automatically displays the concentration of antibiotic on the screen. Moreover, for detection of the antibiotic, a small volume of sample (5 μL) is required. The limits of detection for developed methods were from 0.13 to 0.4 mg/mL (Sr < 0.12).

description: À l'origine de la conception de cette étude fut nos observations qui indiquaient que les élèves en immersion démontraient des faiblesses d'écriture en français et qu'ils répétaient souvent les mêmes erreurs. Une des méthodes de travail pour l'écriture, la dictée traditionnelle, ne semble plus efficace de nos jours. Ceci a amené une collègue et moi à faire de la recherche sur des dictées alternatives. Nous remercions les contributions de Danièle Cogis (2005) surtout pour ses innovations autour de la méthode de la phrase du jour. Centrée sur l'apprentissage au lieu d'evaluation, la phrase du jour permet aux élèves de réfléchir et de discuter les options orthographiques d'une phrase. D'autres recherches ont également éclairci ce project en proposant des démarches qui peuvant être suivies pour amener les élèves à mieux soigner leur écriture. L'etude, en général, comprend des leçons et/ou activités préalables sur un sujet ciblé ( grammaticale ou orthographique ), une dictée qui permet aux élèves d'utiliser leurs ressources ( par exemple, les dictionnaires ), de discuter avec un/une partenaire et de faire des changements selon leurs négociations. Selon les conclusions de ce projet, en employant la dictée modifiée, les élèves ont plus d'engagement cognitif et social et ils démontrent plus d'intérêt pout les leçons orthographiques et grammaticales.

description: The maximum entropy that can be stored in a bounded region of space is in dispute: it goes as volume, implies (non-gravitational) microphysics; it goes as the surface area, asserts the "holographic principle." Here I show how the holographic bound can be derived from elementary flat-spacetime quantum field theory when the total energy of Fock states is constrained gravitationally. This energy constraint makes the Fock space dimension (whose logarithm is the maximum entropy) finite for both Bosons and Fermions. Despite the elementary nature of my analysis, it results in an upper limit on entropy in remarkable agreement with the holographic bound.

description: Manual interpretation of data collected from drill holes for mineral or oil and gas exploration is time-consuming and subjective. Identification of geological boundaries and distinctive rock physical property domains is the first step of interpretation. We introduce a multivariate technique, that can identify geological boundaries from petrophysical or geochemical data. The method is based on time-series techniques that have been adapted to be applicable for detecting transitions in geological spatial data. This method allows for the use of multiple variables in detecting different lithological layers. Additionally, it reconstructs the phase space of a single drill-hole or well to be applicable for further investigations across other holes or wells. The computationally cheap method shows efficiency and accuracy in detecting boundaries between lithological layers, which we demonstrate using examples from mineral exploration boreholes and an offshore gas exploration well.

description: This paper aimed to evaluate farmers’ preferences on condition attributes in a manufacturing pineapple sale contract. Data were collected from 300 pineapple farmers in Rayong province in the cropping season 2015 using paper-based questionnaires. Conjoint analysis model was employed to analyze the attribute ranking. Consequently, farmers were grouped by using cluster analysis in order to study attribute ranking for each group. The analytical results revealed that farmers’ preferences were affected respectively by coverage-crop insurance option, price option, contract quantity and input supply arrangement. Finally, the attribute set that was found to obtain the highest total utility included guaranteed minimum prices, total quantity purchase and partial coverage-crop insurance. The farmers were segmented in 2 groups due to their preferences. The first group of farmers mostly had their planted areas between 20-40 rais and attended at least one training program concerning agricultural knowledge. The most important attribute of the first group was coverage-crop insurance option. Most of the second-group farmers had a small area planted and never attended the training. The price option was the most importance attribute for the second group. The suggestion from this study was that farmers, pineapple manufacturers and related government sectors jointly set a reasonably minimum guaranteed price that is consistent to the cost of production. Moreover, coverage-crop insurance could be added in a manufacturing pineapple sale contact in order to increase the farmers' confidence in their production.

description: The effects of different parameters and the nitric acid concentration on the sensitivity and repeatability of elemental analysis were characterized for liquid electrode plasma optical emission spectrometry (LEP-OES). In addition, internal standardization for LEP-OES was investigated. The developed LEP-OES method was used for the determination of lithium, potassium, iron, and zinc in aqueous solutions and in samples with high acid concentrations after microwave-assisted digestion. The results were compared with those obtained by inductively coupled plasma – optical emission spectrometry. The sensitivity was improved when the plasma parameters were optimized. In addition, some improvement in the accuracy and reproducibility of the results was achieved when internal standardization by gold was employed. However, due to the strong matrix effects, the calibration standards should be made as similar as possible to the sample matrix.
On the use of photometric redshifts for X-ray selected AGNs

description: (Abridged) In this paper we present photometric redshift estimates for a sample of X-ray selected sources detected in the wide field (~2 deg^2), bright [f_{X} (0.5-8 keV)~10^{-14} cgs] XMM-Newton/2dF survey. Unlike deeper X-ray samples comprising a large fraction of sources with colours dominated by the host galaxy, our bright survey primarily probes the QSO X-ray population. Therefore photometric redshift methods employing both galaxy and QSO templates need to be used. We employ the photometric redshift technique of Hatziminaoglou, Mathez & Pello (2000) using 5-band photometry from the SDSS. We separate our X-ray sources according to their optical profile to point-like and extended. We apply QSO and galaxy templates to the point-like and extended sources respectively. X-ray sources associated with Galactic stars are identified and discarded from our point-like sample on the basis of their low X-ray--to--optical flux ratio and their broad band colours that are best fit by stellar templates. Comparison of our results with spectroscopic redshifts available, allows calibration of our method and estimation of the photometric redshift accuracy. For ~70 per cent of the point-like sources photometric redshifts are correct within dz <= 0.3 (or ~75 per cent have dz/(1+z) <= 0.2), and the rms scatter is estimated to be sigma_z = 0.30. For the optically extended objects the photometric redshifts work only in the case of red (g - r > 0.5 mag) sources yielding dz <= 0.15 and dz/(1+z) <= 0.2 for 73 and 93 per cent respectively. However, we find that the above photometric redshift technique does not work in the case of extended sources with blue colours (g - r < 0.5): such sources cannot be fit successfully by QSO or galaxy templates, or any linear combination of the two.

description: Cosmological simulations play an increasingly important role in analysing the observed large-scale structure of the Universe. Recently, they have been particularly important in building hybrid models that combine a perturbative bias expansion with displacement fields extracted from N-body simulations to describe the clustering of biased tracers. Here, we show that simulations that employ a technique referred to as "Fixing-and-pairing" (F&P) can dramatically improve the statistical precision of such hybrid models. Specifically, by numerical and analytic means, we show that F&P simulations provide unbiased estimates for all statistics employed by hybrid models while reducing, by up to two orders of magnitude, their uncertainty on large scales. This roughly implies that an EUCLID-like survey could be analysed using simulations of 2Gpc a side -- a 20% of the survey volume. Our work establishes the robustness of F&P for current hybrid theoretical models for galaxy clustering, an important step towards achieving an optimal exploitation of large-scale structure measurements.
