description: Non-Newtonian calculus that starts with elementary non-Diophantine arithmetic operations of a Burgin type is applicable to all fractals whose cardinality is continuum. The resulting definitions of derivatives and integrals are simpler from what one finds in the more traditional literature of the subject, and they often work in the cases where the standard methods fail. As an illustration, we perform a Fourier transform of a real-valued function with Sierpiński-set domain. The resulting formalism is as simple as the usual undergraduate calculus.

description: We present a general method to obtain the stable lasing solutions for the steady-state ab-initio lasing theory (SALT) for the case of a degenerate symmetric laser in two dimensions (2d). We find that under most regimes (with one pathological exception), the stable solutions are clockwise and counterclockwise circulating modes, generalizing previously known results of ring lasers to all 2d rotational symmetry groups. Our method uses a combination of semi-analytical solutions close to lasing threshold and numerical solvers to track the lasing modes far above threshold. Near threshold, we find closed-form expressions for both circulating modes and other types of lasing solutions as well as for their linearized Maxwell--Bloch eigenvalues, providing a simple way to determine their stability without having to do a full nonlinear numerical calculation. Above threshold, we show that a key feature of the circulating mode is its "chiral" intensity pattern, which arises from spontaneous symmetry-breaking of mirror symmetry, and whose symmetry group requires that the degeneracy persists even when nonlinear effects become important. Finally, we introduce a numerical technique to solve the degenerate SALT equations far above threshold even when spatial discretization artificially breaks the degeneracy.

Year: 2024

description: Abstract

COVID-19 pandemic struck the world and various problems were faced such as food security, thus higher educational institutions like Central Mindanao University are pushed to respond.  Central Mindanao University (CMU) in the Philippines initiated the establishment of a School gardening program in the public schools in Bukidnon. The school gardening program is a participatory activity with a collaborative effort between CMU, NOMCAARRD Consortium Member Institutions (CMI), and other stakeholders. This initiative of NOMCAARRD was established as an active response to the GALING-PCAARRD Kontra CoViD-19 program. The main objective of this program is to empower parents, students, and school teachers, through the transfer of selected S&T interventions to provide a source of food specially during the pandemic. This study aimed to capacitate students, parents, and school teachers, in Bukidnon; and determine the cost and return, particularly during the ongoing pandemic. A series of observations, Key Informant Interviews (KII), and focus group discussions were conducted among various stakeholders to implement the project, and Secondary data were utilized. The project was implemented among one Elementary school, and one Integrated School, in Bukidnon Philippines with Central Mindanao University (CMU) as the project's implementing agency. The project delivered a technology package (POT) covering "Pinakbet" vegetable production, mushroom production, and vermicomposting, to the participants. The implementation was fueled by market linkages, farm on-site and off-site consultation, farm capability building, partnership with the Local Government Units and private companies, and provision of farm inputs and materials. The implementation of this program is to encourage more students to engage in agricultural entrepreneurship in response to the declining trend in enrolment in agriculture courses in the Philippines. Data were gathered includes the participants’ year level, gender, and analyzes their costs and returns. The program also conducted training sessions covering various aspects of agriculture and business, ranging from farming techniques to organizational management.

description: A new method providing general consistency constraints for Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) theories, using measurements at particle colliders, is presented. The method, `Constraints On New Theories Using Rivet', Contur, exploits the fact that particle-level differential measurements made in fiducial regions of phase-space have a high degree of model-independence. These measurements can therefore be compared to BSM physics implemented in Monte Carlo generators in a very generic way, allowing a wider array of final states to be considered than is typically the case. The Contur approach should be seen as complementary to the discovery potential of direct searches, being designed to eliminate inconsistent BSM proposals in a context where many (but perhaps not all) measurements are consistent with the Standard Model. We demonstrate, using a competitive simplified dark matter model, the power of this approach. The Contur method is highly scaleable to other models and future measurements.

description: The LISA (Linea Italiana per la Spettroscopia di Assorbimento di raggi X) beamline at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) represents a significant advancement in the field of applied synchrotron radiation spectroscopy. This beamline is dedicated to X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and related techniques. Equipped with a bending magnet source of the new ESRF-EBS storage ring, the beamline allows detailed investigations of the structural properties of materials at the atomic level, addressing critical scientific questions in diverse fields such as materials science, chemistry, physics, cultural heritage and environmental science.

In this contribution we will present the current status and the recent updates from the beamline. In particular we report an improved version of the data reduction software and the development of a scan routine for acquiring X-ray fluorescence maps. Furthermore, we will present the development of a new code for fluorescence data post-treatment which allows to set new ROIs in the emission spectrum and recreate a XAS spectrum. As ongoing projects and future perspectives we report the creation of a database of XAS spectra of reference compounds from the archives of the beamline and the foreseen migration to the new BLISS beamline control environment with the implementation of new electronics for the fluorescence detector.

Using Generalised Dialogue Models to Constrain Information State Based Dialogue Systems

Publisher: name: University of Dortmund
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: 430

description: While Information State (IS) based techniques show promise in the construction of flexible, knowledgebased dialogue systems, the many declarative rules that are used to encode Dialogue Theories often lead to opaque systems that are difficult to test and potentially unintuitive to users. In this paper, we advocate the application of explicitly defined Generic Dialogue Models (GDMs), encoded as recursive transition networks (RTNs), to the structuring of information state-based dialogue managers. To this end, we review the state of GDM approaches, comparing and contrasting them against the Dialogue Theories which are typically implemented using information state approaches. Furthermore, to support our approach, we present an extension of the ALPHA (A Language for Programming Hybrid Agents) language, which has been enhanced to support information state and GDM concepts directly.

description: Computer-based interviewing systems could use models of respondent disfluency behaviors to predict a need for clarification of terms in survey questions. We compare simulated speech interfaces that use two such models - a generic model and a stereotyped model that distinguishes between the speech of younger and older speakers - to several non-modeling speech interfaces in a task where respondents provided answers to survey questions from fictional scenarios. Our modeling procedure found that the best predictor of conceptual misalignment was a critical Goldilocks range for response latency, outside of which responses are more likely to be conceptually misaligned. Different Goldilocks ranges are effective for younger and older speakers.

description: We study whether the credit default swap (CDS) spreads of firms reflect the risk from climate transition. We first construct a climate transition risk (CTR) factor by using information on the vulnerability of a firm’s value to the transition to a low-carbon economy. We then document how this factor shifts the term structure of the CDS spreads of more vulnerable firms but not of less vulnerable firms. Considering the impact of different climate transition policies on the CTR factor, we find that these policies have asymmetric and significant economic impacts on the credit risk of more vulnerable firms, and negligible effects on other firms.
description: Nous cherchons à savoir si les écarts sur les swaps sur défaillance des sociétés tiennent compte du risque associé à la transition climatique. Nous élaborons tout d’abord un facteur de risque lié à la transition climatique à l’aide de données sur la vulnérabilité de la valeur d’une société par rapport à la transition vers une économie à faibles émissions de carbone. Ensuite, nous mettons en évidence la façon dont ce facteur fait varier la structure par terme des écarts relatifs aux swaps sur défaillance des sociétés plus vulnérables, mais pas celle concernant les sociétés moins vulnérables. Nous étudions enfin l’incidence de différentes politiques de transition climatique sur le facteur de risque lié à la transition climatique. Nous constatons que ces politiques ont des effets économiques asymétriques et considérables sur le risque de crédit des sociétés plus vulnérables, et des effets négligeables sur les autres sociétés.

description: Many studies in the parcel logistics literature have accredited the hub-based network structures for better freight consolidation and economies of scale. A downside to this practice, however, is that sorting a large number of parcels at (intermediate) hubs requires a significant investment in real estate, human, and machine resources. Furthermore, the time spent in the hubs for waiting and processing increases the parcels' total in-transit time. Such re-sorting can be bypassed by smartly encapsulating parcels that share common service features and a subsequent destination. In this study, we rely on the capabilities of a Physical Internet enabled logistic network to introduce several decision protocols for dynamic containerized consolidation as pertinent to fast-paced parcel logistic environments. We use agent-based simulation to provide empirical results and elaborate on the benefits of containerized consolidation, specifically in saving handling efforts at hubs.

description: Developing countries are so particular as transports are often saturated, infrastructures are in poor condition and the demand is growing so fast. In such a context, the studied research question is: Does Physical Internet (PI) can improve the Last-Mile delivery performance in developing countries? And if so, how and how-much? To start answering this, the paper develops a quick literature analysis of PI solutions to identify which paradigms could bring added value to developing countries. Then, it presents a dedicated simulation-driven method able to assess the potential benefits and limits of applying PI to this specific situation. A Cambodian field-oriented case is finally presented as a very first ongoing experiment to validate the approach and a set of insights regarding further research able to deliver concrete recommendations for both practitioners and scholars is given.

description: The Physical Internet (PI) puts high emphasis on enabling logistics to reliably perform at the speed mandated by and promised to customers, and to do so efficiently and sustainably. To do so, goods to be moved are encapsulated in modular containers and these are flowed from hub to hub in relay mode. At each hub, PI enables fast and efficient dynamic consolidation of sets of containers to be shipped together to next hubs. Each consolidated set is assigned to an appropriate vehicle so to enact the targeted transport. In this paper, we address the case where transportation service providers are available to provide vehicles and trailers of distinct dimensions on demand according to openly agreed and/or contracted terms. We describe the essence of such terms, notably relative to expected frequency distribution of transport requests, and expectations about time between request and arrival at hub. In such a context, we introduce rigorous generic protocols that can be applied at each hub so as to dynamically generate consolidation sets of modular containers and requests for on-demand transportation services, in an efficient, resilient, and sustainable way ensuring reliable pickup and delivery within the promised time windows. We demonstrate the performance of such protocols using a simulation based experiment for a national intercity express parcel logistic network. We finally provide conclusive remarks and promising avenues for field implementation and further research.

description: We introduce a novel class of interaction-enabled topological crystalline insulators in two- and three-dimensional electronic systems, which we call "topological crystalline magnet." It is protected by the product of the time-reversal symmetry $\mathcal{T}$ and a mirror symmetry or a rotation symmetry $\mathcal{R}$. A topological crystalline magnet exhibits two intriguing features: (i) it cannot be adiabatically connected to any Slater insulator and (ii) the edge state is robust against coupling electrons to the edge. These features are protected by the anomalous symmetry transformation property $(\mathcal{R} \mathcal{T})^2=-1$ of the edge state. An anisotropic response to the external magnetic field can be an experimental signature.

description: In the hyperconnected logistics model, a city is represented as a continuous mesh of small regions called unit zones. The clustering problem is to partition the set of unit zones into larger local cells and urban areas, and is critical in defining network operations. We give a mixed integer programming-based method for solving the clustering problem, which combines aspects of graph partitioning and min-cost flow problems. Our model aims to minimize expected operating cost, accounting for s expenses throughout the network, while incentivizing clusters that are resilient, geographically compact, and have balanced demand. To generate meaningful warm-starts for our MIP and achieve computational speedups, we adapt a graph partitioning method called striping. Solutions for the clustering problem can be integrated with methods for other problems in hyperconnected network design, significantly improving their tractability. Our techniques work effectively in tandem with methods for choosing hub candidate locations and routing flow. We show the effectiveness of our methods in redesigning SF Express’s hyperconnected network in Shenzhen.

Elater crenicollis Ménétriés, 1832: 156.
Compsolacon crenicollis: Reitter, 1905: 6. For more information, including synonyms, see Hayek (1973).
Distribution. Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bosnia Herzegovina, Bulgaria, France, Georgia, Greece, Iran, Italy, Montenegro, Pakistan, Russia, Serbia, Turkey, Ukraine (Cate 2007, Pedroni & Platia 2010, Akhter et al. 2014).
Literature. Akhter et al. (2014: 118): first record from Pakistan, figures of male habitus and antenna [as Agrypnus].
Remarks.Although Akhter et al. (2014) recorded this species from Pakistan, the images provided by the authors show significant differences from C. crenicollis in the shapes of pronotum, pronotal hind angles, and antennomeres. The imaged species treated in that study as C. crenicollis might be in fact C. triticumunis. Therefore, the presence of C. crenicollis in Pakistan should be confirmed by further data.

description: Models of meme propagation on social networks, in which memes compete for limited user attention, can successfully reproduce the heavy-tailed popularity distributions observed in online settings. While system-wide popularity distributions have been derived analytically, the dynamics of individual meme trajectories have thus far evaded description. To address this, we formulate the diffusion of a given meme as a one-dimensional stochastic process, whose fluctuations result from aggregating local network dynamics using classic and generalized central limit theorems, with the latter based on stable distribution theory. Ultimately, our approach decouples competing trajectories of meme popularities, allowing them to be simulated independently, and thus parallelized and expressed in terms of Fokker-Planck equations.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt das Thema Einschätzung, Veränderungsprozesse und Rehabilitation bei Schwerhörigkeit im Alter. Entsprechend befassen sich die erkenntnisleitenden Fragestellungen mit dem Erleben der Schwerhörigkeit, der eigenen Kommunikationsfähigkeit, der Gestaltung des Lebensstils, den Erfahrungen der Betroffenen, dem rehabilitativen Vorgehen bei Schwerhörigkeit im Alter und möglichen Konsequenzen der gewonnenen Einsichten für die zukünftige Praxis. Zu Beginn der Auseinandersetzung werden die Grundlagen und Problemfelder der Thematik aus hörgeschädigtenpädagogischer Perspektive erörtert. Neben einer Beschreibung der Zielgruppe werden physiologische Faktoren und signifikante Arten der Schwerhörigkeit im Alter in aller Kürze dargelegt. Einen wesentlichen Ansatzpunkt stellt eine Betrachtung der zwischenmenschlichen Kommunikation dar. Diese Erläuterungen führen die, im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Thematik stehenden, bedeutenden Aspekte verbaler Kommunikation aus. Einschränkungen und Belastungsmomente werden offenbar. Dieses erste Kapitel schließt mit einer Darstellung des rehabilitativen Handelns, dabei zeigen fundamentale Anmerkungen die Beschaffenheit der Hörgeschädigtenrehabilitation auf. Die folgende Ausarbeitung basiert auf einer soziologisch ausgerichteten Erklärungsweise. Das Verhältnis von Alter und Gesellschaft wird anhand des Strukturwandels, der Individualisierung, der demographischen Veränderungen und der Lebensweisen im Alter erörtert. Ausgehend von diesen Erläuterungen zeigt sich, dass es sich bei dem Lebensabschnitt Alter, um eine gestaltbare Zeitspanne handelt, in der sich jedes Individuum verschiedenen Herausforderungen und Aufgaben stellen muss. Die hierfür erforderlichen Kompetenzen gilt es, im Rahmen der tertiären Sozialisation und der persönlichen Entwicklung zu erwerben. Mit Altenbildung, einem geragogischen Instrument, wird hier ein Weg aufgezeigt, der solche Prozesse unterstützen kann. Weitere Aufschlüsse soll eine eigens durchgeführte Untersuchung geben. Entsprechend ist es erforderlich, im dritten Teil einige Verfahren und Prinzipien qualitativer Interviews zu diskutieren und die angewandten Methoden zu begründen. Die Analyseergebnisse werden im vierten Kapitel gemäß vorher aufgestellten Kategorien präsentiert und diskutiert. An den theoretischen Einsichten sowie den Resultaten der Untersuchung anknüpfend, beschäftigt sich der letzte Teil der Arbeit mit einem Ansatz, der ältere Schwerhörige bei der Bewältigung gesellschaftlicher und individueller Herausforderungen unterstützen und bei der Integration in bestehende soziale Netze bestärken kann. Die Problematik einer Schwerhörigkeit im Alter wird dabei inhaltlich und thematisch berücksichtigt.
BREAKING LINGUISTIC CHAINS: CHOMSKY'S VISION FOR A STIMULUS-FREE VERBAL SYMPHONY

description: This paper explores the intriguing concept of a "stimulus-free language" as envisioned by the eminent American linguist, Noam Chomsky. Chomsky's assertion challenges conventional notions about language, positing that the normal use of language is not only innovative and boundlessly expansive but also emancipated from the constraints of detectable stimuli, be they external or internal. This departure from stimulus control, as proposed by Chomsky, bestows language with the unique capacity to function as a tool for thought and self-expression. This inherent characteristic, according to Chomsky, is not exclusive to the exceptionally gifted and talented but is a faculty available to every normal human being.

The exploration of this "stimulus-free language" concept delves into the intricate relationship between language, thought, and self-expression. By examining Chomsky's perspective, we navigate through the realms of linguistic autonomy, breaking away from traditional paradigms that tether language to external or internal stimuli. The paper discusses the implications of this vision on our understanding of language acquisition, cognitive processes, and the democratization of linguistic prowess among individuals.

Furthermore, the paper considers the practical implications of Chomsky's vision, evaluating how a stimulus-free language might manifest in everyday communication and cognitive endeavors. This investigation leads to a reconsideration of educational approaches, linguistic interventions, and the nurturing of linguistic capabilities in diverse populations.

In synthesizing Chomsky's ideas with contemporary perspectives on language and cognition, this paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse in linguistics and cognitive science. By critically engaging with the concept of a stimulus-free language, the study seeks to unravel the intricacies of language's role in shaping human thought and expression.
