description: What does it take to design a machine that learns to answer natural questions about a video? A Video QA system must simultaneously understand language, represent visual content over space-time, and iteratively transform these representations in response to lingual content in the query, and finally arriving at a sensible answer. While recent advances in lingual and visual question answering have enabled sophisticated representations and neural reasoning mechanisms, major challenges in Video QA remain on dynamic grounding of concepts, relations and actions to support the reasoning process. Inspired by the dual-process account of human reasoning, we design a dual process neural architecture, which is composed of a question-guided video processing module (System 1, fast and reactive) followed by a generic reasoning module (System 2, slow and deliberative). System 1 is a hierarchical model that encodes visual patterns about objects, actions and relations in space-time given the textual cues from the question. The encoded representation is a set of high-level visual features, which are then passed to System 2. Here multi-step inference follows to iteratively chain visual elements as instructed by the textual elements. The system is evaluated on the SVQA (synthetic) and TGIF-QA datasets (real), demonstrating competitive results, with a large margin in the case of multi-step reasoning.

description: The claim of an exomoon candidate in the Kepler-1625b system has generated substantial discussion regarding possible alternative explanations for the purported signal. In this work we examine in detail these possibilities. First, the effect of more flexible trend models is explored and we show that sufficiently flexible models are capable of attenuating the signal, although this is an expected byproduct of invoking such models. We also explore trend models using X and Y centroid positions and show that there is no data-driven impetus to adopt such models over temporal ones. We quantify the probability that the 500 ppm moon-like dip could be caused by a Neptune-sized transiting planet to be < 0.75%. We show that neither autocorrelation, Gaussian processes nor a Lomb-Scargle periodogram are able to recover a stellar rotation period, demonstrating that K1625 is a quiet star with periodic behavior < 200 ppm. Through injection and recovery tests, we find that the star does not exhibit a tendency to introduce false-positive dip-like features above that of pure Gaussian noise. Finally, we address a recent re-analysis by Kreidberg et al (2019) and show that the difference in conclusions is not from differing systematics models but rather the reduction itself. We show that their reduction exhibits i) slightly higher intra-orbit and post-fit residual scatter, ii) $\simeq$ 900 ppm larger flux offset at the visit change, iii) $\simeq$ 2 times larger Y-centroid variations, and iv) $\simeq$ 3.5 times stronger flux-centroid correlation coefficient than the original analysis. These points could be explained by larger systematics in their reduction, potentially impacting their conclusions.

Incomplete Nutation Diffusion Imaging: an ultrafast, single-scan approach for diffusion mapping

name: Shemesh, Noam
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Medical Physics (physics.med-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Purpose: Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) is confounded by its long acquisition duration, thereby thwarting the detection of rapid microstructural changes, especially when diffusivity variations are accompanied by rapid changes in T2. The purpose of the present study is to accelerate dMRI to a single scan acquisition, and to enable a more accurate estimation of diffusivity as function of time. Methods: A general methodology termed Incomplete Initial Nutation Diffusion Imaging (INDI) capturing two diffusion contrasts in a single shot, is presented. INDI creates a longitudinal magnetization reservoir that facilitates the successive acquisition of two images separated by only a few milliseconds. INDI's theory is presented, followed by proof-of-concept ex- and in-vivo experiments at 16.4 T and 9.4 T. Results: Mean diffusivities (MDs) extracted from INDI were comparable with Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) and the two-shot IDE in the water phantom. As expected in the brain tissues, DTI provided lower MD than UF-IDE and IDE, but IDE and UF-IDE were in excellent agreement. Simulations are presented for identifying the regimes where INDI is most beneficial. Conclusions: INDI accelerates dMRI acquisition to single-shot mode, which can be of great importance for mapping dynamic microstructural properties in-vivo without T2 bias.

Because we take the coupling constant to be weak and the background spacetime to be flat Minkowski, not AdS, the string states |n> are circular waves around the D3-branes, instead of KK modes on S^5. We also discuss the 1/J correction to the correspondence.

As shown by Edward Witten in his papers on two-dimensional gauge theories, the correlation functions of two-dimensional topological Yang-Mills theory (or intersection numbers on moduli spaces of flat connections) can be given in the form of such infinite sums. Thus, in particular, our results give finite expressions for these correlation functions in the case of arbitrary compact structure groups G.

description: We present a decomposition formula for $U_n$, an integral of time-ordered products of operators, in terms of sums of products of the more primitive quantities $C_m$, which are the integrals of time-ordered commutators of the same operators. The resulting factorization enables a summation over $n$ to be carried out to yield an explicit expression for the time-ordered exponential, an expression which turns out to be an exponential function of $C_m$. The Campbell-Baker-Hausdorff formula and the nonabelian eikonal formula obtained previously are both special cases of this result.

description: The real intersection cohomology of a toric variety is described in a purely combinatorial way using methods of elementary commutative algebra only. We define, for arbitrary fans, the notion of a ``minimal extension sheaf'' on the fan as an axiomatic characterization of the equivariant intersection cohomology sheaf. This provides a purely algebraic interpretation of Stanley's generalized f- and g-vector of an arbitrary polytope or complete fan under a natural vanishing condition. -- The results presented in this note originate from joint work with G.Barthel, J.-P.Brasselet and L.Kaup, continuing earlier research (see math.AG/9904159). A detailed exposition will appear elsewhere (see math.AG/0002181).

description: Recently it was discovered that superconductivity in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is strongly affected by an out-of-plane spin-orbit coupling (SOC). In addition, new techniques of fabricating 2d ferromagnets on van der Waals materials are rapidly emerging. Combining these breakthroughs, we propose a realization of nodal topological superconductivity in TMDs by fabricating nanostructured ferromagnets with an in-plane magnetization on the top surface. The proposed procedure does not require application of external magnetic fields and applies to monolayer and multilayer (bulk) systems. The signatures of the topological phase include Majorana flat bands that can be directly observed by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) techniques. We concentrate on NbSe$_2$ and argue that the proposed structures demonstrating the nodal topological phase can be realized withing existing technology.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We study the duality between IIB string theory on a pp-wave background, arising as a Penrose limit of the AdS_3 times S^3 times M, where M is T^4 (or K3), and the 2D CFT which is given by the N=(4,4) orbifold (M)^N/S_N, resolved by a blowing-up mode. After analizying the action of the supercharges on both sides, we establish a correspondence between the states of the two theories. In particular and for the T^4 case, we identify both massive and massless oscillators on the pp-wave, with certain classes of excited states in the resolved CFT carrying large R-charge n. For the former, the excited states involve fractional modes of the generators of the N=4 chiral algebra acting on the Z_n ground states. For the latter, they involve, fractional modes of the U(1)^4_L times U(1)^4_R super-current algebra acting on the Z_n ground states. By using conformal perturbation theory we compute the leading order correction to the conformal dimensions of the first class of states, due to the presence of the blowing up mode. We find agreement, to this order, with the corresponding spectrum of massive oscillators on the pp-wave. We also discuss the issue of higher order corrections.

description: A scientific analysis of the essence of the concepts of “information and digital preparation of the future teacher”, “information and digital competence”, “digitalization of education”, and “the New Ukrainian School” has been carried out. The article proves that one of the factors contributing to the effective development of the educational process is the formation of information and digital competence of future teachers in the context of the development of the New Ukrainian school because in education precedes a new ideology based on “Digital project activity” and “Digitalization” of education, where in place of traditional teachers come «gaming-teachers», «coordinators of online platforms and educational trajectories». It is determined that the result of the formation of information and digital training of future teachers in the context of the development of the New Ukrainian School is a formed information and digital competence, which is composed of: motivational-value, cognitive, operational components. The research methods have been characterized for verification of the formation of the information and digital competence of future teachers in the context of the development of the New Ukrainian School according to certain criteria (motivational, cognitive, reflexive-corrective). The results of the conducted questionnaires, testing, and interrogation provided grounds to state mainly the medium and low levels of formation of the information and digital competence of future teachers in the context of the development of the New Ukrainian School. On the basis of the obtained results, theoretically substantiated the concept and developed the technology of forming the information and digital competence of future teachers in the context of the development of the New Ukrainian school, which is planned to be implemented at the following stages: professional-motivational, content-activity, reflexive-correctional.

description: How can buildings be combined with agricultural production and what are the major potential benefits and challenges for the introduction of zero-acreage farming (ZFarming) in Berlin from the relevant stakeholders’ perspectives? These questions were explored through a series of interviews and stakeholder workshops held between 2011 and 2013. The aim was to identify the most suitable building-integrated farming model for the Berlin metropolitan area and to develop guidelines for the model’s successful and sustainable implementation through a stakeholder-driven approach. This paper provides an aggregated synthesis of the outcomes derived from the qualitative interviews and stakeholder workshops. As the results reveal, the stakeholders perceive potential benefits and challenges related to the issue of ZFarming in all dimensions (economic, social, environmental and political). They largely agreed on the importance of focusing on local resources, using energy- efficient production—including social and educational aspects—and developing new market structures when introducing ZFarming to the city of Berlin. The stakeholders identified urban rooftop greenhouses (RTG) as the most promising farming model for Berlin. In a joint collaboration of all stakeholders, a manual for RTG was developed within the participatory innovation process that addresses the identified problems and challenges associated with future implementation and governance of RTG in Berlin and beyond.

description: The auditory pathway is widely distributed throughout the brain, and is perhaps one of the most interesting networks in the context of neuroplasticity. Accurate mapping of neural activity in the entire pathway, preferably noninvasively, and with high resolution, could be instrumental for understanding such longitudinal processes. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has clear advantages for such characterizations, as it is noninvasive, provides relatively high spatial resolution and lends itself for repetitive studies, albeit relying on an indirect neurovascular coupling to deliver its information. Indeed, fMRI has been previously used to characterize the auditory pathway in humans and in rats. In the mouse, however, the auditory pathway has insofar only been mapped using manganese-enhanced MRI. Here, we describe a novel setup specifically designed for high-resolution mapping of the mouse auditory pathway using high-field fMRI. Robust and consistent Blood-Oxygenation-Level-Dependent (BOLD) responses were documented along nearly the entire auditory pathway, from the cochlear nucleus (CN), through the superior olivary complex (SOC), nuclei of the lateral lemniscus (LL), inferior colliculus (IC) and the medial geniculate body (MGB). By contrast, clear BOLD responses were not observed in auditory cortex (AC) in this study. Diverse BOLD latencies were mapped ROI- and pixel-wise using coherence analysis, evidencing different averaged BOLD time courses in different auditory centers. Some degree of tonotopy was identified in the IC, SOC, and MGB in the pooled dataset though it could not be assessed per subject due to a lack of statistical power. Given the importance of the mouse model in plasticity studies, animal models, and optogenetics, and fMRI's potential to map dynamic responses to specific cues, this first fMRI study of the mouse auditory pathway paves the way for future (...)

description: The importance of improving the quality of decisions in organizations has been a subject for several years in computer, management and decision sciences. Some results were reached, but still a lot of questions remain open. From the perspective of computer science, systems like DSS, GDSS and ODSS are examples of those results. This research proposes another approach, which is based on the concept of a post-decision phase and the technological support that could bring contributions for the decisionmaking process. Through this technological support we aim that part of the process that takes place during a post- decision implementation can contribute to improve the quality of decisions made within an organization. Some innovative aspects include the timing where it is supposed to be used, i.e., after a decision is made and also, it considers news perspectives as a combination of a flexible workflow system integrated to a knowledge repository.

description: With environmental regimes, rapidly emerging and developing, scholars working on the evaluation of ecosystem governance and its capacity to adapt to global environmental change, face a challenge of accounting for the past changes of institutional set-ups and “legacy effects” they created. These effects may include previously taken management actions (including infrastructure development) and formal and informal institutions developed or modified. This is important that even if completely new governance regimes are being emerged/introduced, the inertia of the previous set-up can be persistent, in particular where informal institutions are strong. This problem has been raised in the course of a larger study looking at the adaptive capacity of forest ecosystems in Belarus. Belarus makes for an interesting case because the country is in socio-economic transition since early 1990s, and it still preserves the national governance, which is very much top-down and not participatory. At the same time, the national government and NG sector closely cooperate with international organisations and EU on a number of initiatives, Belarus has ratified most of environmental MEAs, and the national environmental legislation has often been developed after EU models, i.e. multiple levels of environmental governance emerge and influence the national policy and the implementation mechanisms. Another effect of transition is that the conservation status of many protected areas and mandates of the management agencies are often revised and re-formulated. To account for the legacy effect on the adaptation capacity of institutions of ecosystem governance, we have developed a methodological framework based on the analytical problems of the Earth System Governance as formulated by Biermann et al (2009) (Architecture, Agents, Allocation, Accountability, Adaptiveness) translated in a set of operational criteria. The criteria were applied to typical institutional set- ups associated with certain conservations categories of forest ecosystems, and mapped nationwide.

By reframing link failures as traffic uncertainties, this technique allows essentially instantaneous rerouting around arbitrary link failures while preventing congestion. We illustrate the technique by identifying a critical bottleneck in a realistic model wireless network.

description: The unsupervised detection of anomalies in time series data has important applications in user behavioral modeling, fraud detection, and cybersecurity. Anomaly detection has, in fact, been extensively studied in categorical sequences. However, we often have access to time series data that represent paths through networks. Examples include transaction sequences in financial networks, click streams of users in networks of cross-referenced documents, or travel itineraries in transportation networks. To reliably detect anomalies, we must account for the fact that such data contain a large number of independent observations of paths constrained by a graph topology. Moreover, the heterogeneity of real systems rules out frequency-based anomaly detection techniques, which do not account for highly skewed edge and degree statistics. To address this problem, we introduce HYPA, a novel framework for the unsupervised detection of anomalies in large corpora of variable-length temporal paths in a graph. HYPA provides an efficient analytical method to detect paths with anomalous frequencies that result from nodes being traversed in unexpected chronological order.

description: Black p-brane solutions for a wide class of intersection rules and Ricci-flat ``internal'' spaces are considered. They are defined up to moduli functions H_s obeying non-linear differential equations with certain boundary conditions imposed. A new solution with intersections corresponding to the Lie algebra A_3 is obtained. The functions H_1, H_2 and H_3 for this solution are polynomials of degree 3, 4 and 3, correspondingly. An example of A_3-solution with three 3-branes in 12-dimensional model (suggested by N. Khviengia et al) is presented.

description: We consider euclidean D-branes wrapping around manifolds of exceptional holonomy in dimensions seven and eight. The resulting theory on the D-brane---that is, the dimensional reduction of 10-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory---is a cohomological field theory which describes the topology of the moduli space of instantons. The 7-dimensional theory is an N_T = 2 (or balanced) cohomological theory given by an action potential of Chern-Simons type. As a by-product of this method, we construct a related cohomological field theory which describes the monopole moduli space on a 7-manifold of G_2 holonomy.

description: We give a simpler proof of an earlier result giving an asymptotic estimate for the number of integral matrices, in large balls, with a given monic integral irreducible polynomial as their common characteristic polynomial. The proof uses equidistributions of polynomial trajectories on SL(n,R)/SL(n,Z), which is a generalization of Ratner's theorem on equidistributions of unipotent trajectories. We also compute the exact constants appearing in the above mentioned asymptotic estimate.

description: In the sixties Ogievetskii and Polubarinov proposed the concept of a notoph, whose helicity properties are complementary to those of a photon. We analyze the theory of antisymmetric tensor fields in the view of the normalization problem. The obtained result is that it is possible to describe both photon and notoph degrees of freedom on the basis of the modified Bargmann-Wigner formalism for the symmetric second-rank spinor. Physical consequences are discussed.

description: The origin of the radiatively induced Lorentz and CPT violations, in perturbative evaluations, of an extended version of QED, is investigated. Using a very general calculational method, concerning the manipulations and calculations involving divergent amplitudes, we clearly identify the possible sources of contributions for the violating terms. We show that consistency in the perturbative calculations, in a broader sense, leaves no room for the existence of radiatively induced contributions which is in accordance with what was previously conjectured and recently advocated by some authors supported on general arguments.

description: Abstract
With increased usage of long-read sequencing technologies to perform transcriptome analyses, there becomes a greater need to evaluate different methodologies including library preparation, sequencing platform, and computational analysis tools. Here, we report the study design of a community effort called the Long-read RNA-Seq Genome Annotation Assessment Project (LRGASP) Consortium, whose goals are characterizing the strengths and remaining challenges in using long-read approaches to identify and quantify the transcriptomes of both model and non-model organisms. The LRGASP organizers have generated cDNA and direct RNA datasets in human, mouse, and manatee samples using different protocols followed by sequencing on Illumina, Pacific Biosciences, and Oxford Nanopore Technologies platforms. Participants will use the provided data to submit predictions for three challenges: transcript isoform detection with a high-quality genome, transcript isoform quantification, and de novo transcript isoform identification. Evaluators from different institutions will determine which pipelines have the highest accuracy for a variety of metrics using benchmarks that include spike-in synthetic transcripts, simulated data, and a set of undisclosed, manually curated transcripts by GENCODE. We also describe plans for experimental validation of predictions that are platform-specific and computational tool-specific. We believe that a community effort to evaluate long-read RNA-seq methods will help move the field toward a better consensus on the best approaches to use for transcriptome analyses.

description: The integrability of multivector fields in a differentiable manifold is studied. Then, given a jet bundle $J^1E\to E\to M$, it is shown that integrable multivector fields in $E$ are equivalent to integrable connections in the bundle $E\to M$ (that is, integrable jet fields in $J^1E$). This result is applied to the particular case of multivector fields in the manifold $J^1E$ and connections in the bundle $J^1E\to M$ (that is, jet fields in the repeated jet bundle $J^1J^1E$), in order to characterize integrable multivector fields and connections whose integral manifolds are canonical lifting of sections. These results allow us to set the Lagrangian evolution equations for first-order classical field theories in three equivalent geometrical ways (in a form similar to that in which the Lagrangian dynamical equations of non-autonomous mechanical systems are usually given). Then, using multivector fields; we discuss several aspects of these evolution equations (both for the regular and singular cases); namely: the existence and non-uniqueness of solutions, the integrability problem and Noether's theorem; giving insights into the differences between mechanics and field theories.
description: New sections on integrability of Multivector Fields and applications to Field Theory (including some examples) are added. The title has been slightly modified. To be published in J. Math. Phys
Network Representation of Large-Scale Heterogeneous RNA Sequences with Integration of Diverse Multi-omics, Interactions, and Annotations Data

description: Long non-coding RNA, microRNA, and messenger RNA enable key regulations of various biological processes through a variety of diverse interaction mechanisms. Identifying the interactions and cross-talk between these heterogeneous RNA classes is essential in order to uncover the functional role of individual RNA transcripts, especially for unannotated and newly-discovered RNA sequences with no known interactions. Recently, sequence-based deep learning and network embedding methods are becoming promising approaches that can either predict RNA-RNA interactions from a sequence or infer missing interactions from patterns that may exist in the network topology. However, the majority of these methods have several limitations, eg, the inability to perform inductive predictions, to distinguish the directionality of interactions, or to integrate various sequence, interaction, and annotation biological datasets. We proposed a novel deep learning-based framework, rna2rna, which learns from RNA sequences to produce a low-dimensional embedding that preserves the proximities in both the interactions topology and the functional affinity topology. In this proposed embedding space, we have designated a two-part" source and target contexts" to capture the targeting and receptive fields of each RNA transcript, while encapsulating the heterogenous cross-talk interactions between lncRNAs and miRNAs. From experimental results, our method exhibits superior performance in AUPR rates compared to state-of-art approaches at predicting missing interactions in different RNA-RNA interaction databases and was shown to accurately perform link predictions to novel RNA sequences not seen at training time, even without any prior information. Additional results suggest that our proposed framework can capture a manifold for heterogeneous RNA sequences to discover novel functional annotations.
