description: Optical properties of the weakly helimagnetic metal MnSi have been determined in the photon energy range from 2 meV to 4.5 eV using the combination of grazing incidence reflectance at 80 degrees (2 meV to 0.8 eV) and ellipsometry (0.8 to 4.5 eV). As the sample is cooled below 100 K the effective mass becomes strongly frequency dependent at low frequencies, while the scattering rate developes a linear frequency dependence. The complex optical conductivity can be described by the phenomenological relation σ(ω,T) \propto (Γ(T)+iω)^{-1/2} used for cuprates and ruthenates.

title: An Exploration of Multiple Perspectives Around Feedback Practices on Assessed Writing in Higher Education
Creators: name: Cobb, Rachel Jane
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis explores feedback practices around assessed writing in Higher Education from three perspectives: students, tutors and the institution. The study is motivated by my belief as an experienced tutor practitioner that recognition of these three key perspectives in the feedback process is of pedagogical importance. Feedback on assessed writing emerges as a concern throughout the literature and amongst colleagues. Empirical studies and pedagogical discussions around feedback practices tend to focus on one perspective, usually students’, sometimes tutors’, with both framed implicitly within institutional interests. Moreover, much research appears to present issues around feedback as a ‘problem’ that needs resolving. This thesis seeks to offer an exploration of the perspectives of key participants around feedback practices informed by work in Academic Literacies (Lillis and Scott, 2007), through research drawing on ethnographic principles. The thesis is based on one cohort of a second-year undergraduate linguistics module within The Open University (OU), a large UK distance learning institution. It uses data generated from questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and official documentation. I explore the data using a heuristic of Bakhtin’s dialogic approach to language and communication (see Bakhtin, [1934/35],1981:272; 278-80). I relate Bakhtinian notions to the potentiality of dialogic student-tutor feedback practices, the perception of authoritative voices and the potential for agency within an assumed hierarchically structured institution and I foreground the range of influencing voices surrounding the feedback process. Findings indicate the multiplicity of voices involved in the feedback process, besides the limitations to the potential for dialogic tutor-student feedback practices within the context of the conflation of summative and formative assessment and the complexity of hierarchical relationships. These findings, together with an operationalisation of Bakhtin’s theories, are of professional value to educators in deepening understanding of the nature of feedback around writing in Higher Education and in reconsidering feedback practices.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We present the X-ray timing and spectral analysis of the new Galactic X-ray transient Swift J1658.2-4242 observed with LAXPC and SXT instruments onboard {\it Astrosat}. We detect prominent C-type quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) of frequencies varying from $\sim 1.5$ Hz to $\sim 6.6$ Hz along with distinct 2nd harmonics and sub-harmonics. The QPO detected at $\sim 1.56$ Hz drifts to a higher centroid frequency of $\sim 1.74$ in the course of the observation, while the QPO detected at $\sim 6.6$\,Hz disappeared during hard flarings. The fractional rms at the QPO and the sub-harmonic frequencies increases with photon energy, while at the 2nd harmonic frequencies the rms seems to be constant. In addition, we have observed soft time lag at QPO and sub-harmonic frequencies up to a time scale of $\sim 35$ ms, however, at the 2nd harmonic frequencies there is weak/zero time lag. We attempt spectral modeling of the broadband data in the 0.7--25 keV band using the doubly absorbed disk plus thermal Comptonization model. Based on the spectral and timing properties, we identified the source to be in the hard intermediate state of black hole X-ray binaries. To quantitatively fit the energy and frequency-dependent fractional rms and time lag, we use a single zone fluctuation propagation model and discuss our results in the context of that model.

description: This report describes how to set up a local/federated node in EGA (European Genome-phenome Archive). Human biomedical research data is often sensitive in nature, and projects consequently have strong requirements on IT security, data access control, and data management. The rapid increase in human genome sequence data, and the heterogeneous legal landscape among different countries for this type of data, makes it evident that a federated EGA organisation is the optimal solution for the future.
Cloaking the Underlying Long-Range Order of Randomly Perturbed Lattices

description: Random, uncorrelated displacements of particles on a lattice preserve the hyperuniformity of the original lattice, that is, normalized density fluctuations vanish in the limit of infinite wavelengths. In addition to a diffuse contribution, the scattering intensity from the the resulting point pattern typically inherits the Bragg peaks (long-range order) of the original lattice. Here we demonstrate how these Bragg peaks can be hidden in the effective diffraction pattern of independent and identically distributed perturbations. All Bragg peaks vanish if and only if the sum of all probability densities of the positions of the shifted lattice points is a constant at all positions. The underlying long-range order is then 'cloaked' in the sense that it cannot be reconstructed from the pair correlation function alone. On the one hand, density fluctuations increase monotonically with the strength of perturbations $a$, as measured by the hyperuniformity order metric $\overlineΛ$. On the other hand, the disappearance and reemergence of long-range order, depending on whether the system is cloaked or not as the perturbation strength increases, is manifestly captured by the $τ$ order metric. Therefore, while the perturbation strength $a$ may seem to be a natural choice for an order metric of perturbed lattices, the $τ$ order metric is a superior choice. It is noteworthy that cloaked perturbed lattices allow one to easily simulate very large samples (with at least $10^6$ particles) of disordered hyperuniform point patterns without Bragg peaks.

description: The study describes the emotions of students and teachers in positive and negative interpersonal situations, as they are depicted in the drawings of 245 children from 2nd to 5th grade of primary school (7 to 11 years of age). The Scale of Emotions from PAIR was used to categorize the emotions of pupil and teacher in two situations (positive and negative) and to derive the correspondent Emotional climates. Chi-squared was employed for various comparisons. (1) The distribution of Emotions categories showed, as expected, a prevalence of positive, shared emotions in the positive situation and a prevalence of negative, often contrasting emotions in the negative situation. (2) Gender difference emerged only in the positive situation, in which girls represented themselves as happy more frequently than boys: (3) Grade difference emerged only in the negative situations, in which children of the 5th grade represented their teacher with a neutral face more often than children of the 2nd grade, who tended to represent her as happy or sad. These results are interpreted in the light of boys and girls school adaptation and their increasing ability to understand and represent problematic interpersonal situations in school.

description: This text aims to present Strabo and discuss his geographical studies, with a focus on the necessary fact that we must understand the genesis of Geography in order to better engage in this science in contemporary times. It results from studies on the author and his work, and the importance he holds for the development of historical geographic knowledge. We employed a historical methodology, using the historical and logical method, consisting of procedures and techniques used to reveal the facts of the past and construct the historiography of a determined period based on written sources. Geography, as knowledge essential to the development of humanity, has a long history. Over time, numerous thinkers have paid special attention to the study of the genesis of geographical knowledge, among them Strabo, a cultured Greek who was born in 63 BC in Amasya, in present-day Turkey. Strabo is essential due to the legacy left in his work "Geography." This is a compendium of the geographical heritage from his travels through the known world of his time, the oikoumene, in which he relates man to the environment. As a testament to a transforming era, of Roman hegemony conquering new territories, this geographer broadened geographical horizons and contributed to the development of what became defined as Geography.

Robust Adaptive Least Squares Polynomial Chaos Expansions in High-Frequency Applications

description: We present an algorithm for computing sparse, least squares-based polynomial chaos expansions, incorporating both adaptive polynomial bases and sequential experimental designs. The algorithm is employed to approximate stochastic high-frequency electromagnetic models in a black-box way, in particular, given only a dataset of random parameter realizations and the corresponding observations regarding a quantity of interest, typically a scattering parameter. The construction of the polynomial basis is based on a greedy, adaptive, sensitivity-related method. The sequential expansion of the experimental design employs different optimality criteria, with respect to the algebraic form of the least squares problem. We investigate how different conditions affect the robustness of the derived surrogate models, that is, how much the approximation accuracy varies given different experimental designs. It is found that relatively optimistic criteria perform on average better than stricter ones, yielding superior approximation accuracies for equal dataset sizes. However, the results of strict criteria are significantly more robust, as reduced variations regarding the approximation accuracy are obtained, over a range of experimental designs. Two criteria are proposed for a good accuracy-robustness trade-off.

description: We study the path from the string scale physics to the low-energy physics in the $SU(6) \times SU(2)_R$ string-inspired model with the flavor symmetry ${\bf Z}_M \times {\bf Z}_N \times \tilde{D}_4$. The flavor symmetry controls the mass spectra of heavy particles as well as those of quarks and leptons in the intermediate energy region ranging from the string scale ($\sim 10^{18} {\rm GeV}$) to the electroweak scale. In this paper we examine the mass spectra of heavy particles in detail in our model. The renormalization group evolution of the gauge couplings is studied up to two-loop order. A consistent solution of the gauge unification around the string scale is found by adjusting the spectra of the anti-generation matter fields.

title: Evaluating the Evaluators: Subjective Bias and Consistency in Human Evaluation of Natural Language Generation
Creators: name: Amidei, Jacopo
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: The Natural Language Generation (NLG) community relies on shared evaluation techniques to understand progress in the field. Based on an analysis of papers published over 10 years (from 2008 to 2018) in NLG-specific conferences and on an observational study, this thesis identifies shortcomings with existing approaches to reporting the reliability of evaluation studies in NLG. It proposes a new set of methods for identifying judges' bias and reporting reliability, specifically for human intrinsic evaluation of NLG systems. In this thesis, we propose to use the correlation statistic and Item Response Theory (IRT) to analyse judges' bias for cases that involve a high level of language variability. Both techniques provide insights about the trustability of human judgements. Whereas the correlation statistic offers an approach to measure judges' relative consistency, IRT provides a tool to identify judges' bias. We found support for the use of the correlation statistic through three case studies that show the limits of considering agreement coefficients as the only criterion for checking evaluation reliability. Given the variability of human language --- specifically variability in language interpretation and quality judgement --- expecting judges to always arrive at exactly the same judgement seems both unrealistic and over-constrained. The correlation coefficients can be used to measure the extent to which judges follow a systematic pattern in their assessments, even when their individual interpretations of the phenomena are not identical. Regarding IRT, we introduce a new interpretation and application of the technique to describe judges' bias. Using the QG-STEC evaluation dataset, and applying IRT to each judge, we show how to use IRT's probabilistic analysis to compare judges' bias and as result better characterize annotation disagreement. The new approach that we propose, can be used, for example, to spot judges who are outliers, improve annotation guidelines and arrive at an improved interpretation of the agreement coefficients.

description: We present two results concerning the relation between poles and cuts by using the example of N=1 U(N_c) gauge theories with matter fields in the adjoint, fundamental and anti-fundamental representations. The first result is the on-shell possibility of poles, which are associated with flavors and on the second sheet of the Riemann surface, passing through the branch cut and getting to the first sheet. The second result is the generalization of hep-th/0311181 (Intriligator, Kraus, Ryzhov, Shigemori, and Vafa) to include flavors. We clarify when there are closed cuts and how to reproduce the results of the strong coupling analysis by matrix model, by setting the glueball field to zero from the beginning. We also make remarks on the possible stringy explanations of the results and on generalization to SO(N_c) and USp(2N_c) gauge groups.

 COMMENTS. Numerous samples of Belizean material of A. araujoi (BMNH) have been identified in comparison with syntypic material from Mexico, loaned by UCD in connection with a study of Aleurodicinae in Belize (Martin, 2004), in which publication host plant records in Belize were tabulated. This species clearly belongs to the capiangae / dugesii group, and may be recognised by use of the key to species, p. 15.
A sample of puparia from mistletoe in Costa Rica (BMNH) has its puparia rather darkly pigmented, and other slight differences from the extensive Belizean material, but is considered likely to be conspecific.

description: Quantum many-body systems in thermal equilibrium can be described by the imaginary time Green's function formalism. However, the treatment of large molecular or solid ab inito problems with a fully realistic Hamiltonian in large basis sets is hampered by the storage of the Green's function and the precision of the solution of the Dyson equation. We present a Legendre-spectral algorithm for solving the Dyson equation that addresses both of these issues. By formulating the algorithm in Legendre coefficient space, our method inherits the known faster-than-exponential convergence of the Green's function's Legendre series expansion. In this basis, the fast recursive method for Legendre polynomial convolution, enables us to develop a Dyson equation solver with quadratic scaling. We present benchmarks of the algorithm by computing the dissociation energy of the helium dimer He$_2$ within dressed second-order perturbation theory. For this system, the application of the Legendre spectral algorithm allows us to achieve an energy accuracy of $10^{-9} E_h$ with only a few hundred expansion coefficients.
Effect of ion hydration on the first-order transition in the sequential wetting of hexane on brine

description: In recent experiments, a sequence of changes in the wetting state (`wetting transitions') has been observed upon increasing the temperature in systems consisting of pentane on pure water and of hexane on brine. This sequence of two transitions is brought about by an interplay of short-range and long-range interactions between substrate and adsorbate. In this work, we argue that the short-range interaction (contact energy) between hexane and pure water remains unchanged due to the formation of a depletion layer (a thin `layer' of pure water which is completely devoid of ions) at the surface of the electrolyte and that the presence of the salt manifests itself only in a modification of the long-range interaction between substrate and adsorbate. In a five-layer calculation considering brine, water, the first layer of adsorbed hexane molecules, liquid hexane, and vapor, we determine the new long-range interaction of brine with the adsorbate {\em across} the water `layer'. According to the recent theory of the excess surface tension of an electrolyte by Levin and Flores-Mena, this water `layer' is of constant, i.e.\ salt-concentration independent, thickness $δ$, with $δ$ being the hydrodynamic radius of the ions in water. Our results are in good agreement with the experimental ones.

description: Avoidant Personality Disorder (APD) is the most prevalent diagnosis amongst the personality disorders. However, it remains under-researched, and few psychotherapeutic approaches have proven effectiveness in treating the disorder. Focusing on specific elements of psychopathology may therefore help in refining treatments for this disorder. Here we present a case where Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy (MIT) was used to directly address the negative metacognitive schemas held by clients with APD. We also describe the theoretical background of MIT and why it may be effective in the psychotherapeutic treatment of APD.

description: In a three-particle extension of Wheeler's delayed choice gedanken experiment, the quantum statistics of two particles is undetermined until a third particle is measured. As a function of the measurement result, the particles behave either as bosons or as fermions. The particles are distinguishable if no measurement is performed at all or when the measurement is performed in a rotated basis. The scheme is based on Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger quantum correlations. It can be interpreted more generally as the encryption of maximally entangled states in a larger quantum superposition. The local quantum information is scrambled but can be decoded by the measurement result of a control particle. This can be extended to multiple particles and allows to develop quantum information protocols whose successful implementation depends on the collaboration of all parties.

description: This study explores the relationship between teachers’ pedagogical stances and their use of ICT in classroom practice. Most previous research about ICT use in schools is quantitative and/or treats technology and teachers as independent of each other. Yet ICT practices do not exist without the individuals who use them and the contexts in which they are used. Very little is currently known about the sociocultural influences that affect teacher’s implicit (rather than espoused) views on ICT in teaching practices. In this study Twining et al's (2017) sociocultural framework has been synthesised with further literature foregrounding influences from Identity and the Self. This offers a new model - the Funnels of Influence - as a means to understand the ways in which individual teacher’s pedagogical views come to exist and how they affect the use of ICT within their teaching practices. This sociocultural study adopted a qualitative, interpretative method of enquiry. Between January 2018 and April 2019, data was generated in two primary schools in England. This consisted of two headteacher interviews, 21 teacher interviews and eight observations of teacher practice. Through the use of case study, three individual teacher’s espoused, intended and enacted pedagogical stances were probed, surfacing the many influences and revealing teachers’ implicit pedagogical stance. The ways in which those teachers used (or did not use) ICT in their teaching practice were then unpacked by considering relationships between teacher’s pedagogical stance and enacted ICT practice. The study exemplifies how different teachers who appear to be using the same ICT practices and who appear to be pedagogically aligned, can instead be enacting profoundly different practice. There are important implications for policy makers and practitioners who seek consistency within and across schools, and for those who seek to disseminate successful practices. Most importantly, the findings within this study emphasise the importance of researchers and practitioners looking deeply below the surface when considering ICT in teaching practice.

description: Accurate and deep BVI CCD photometry is presented for the core regions of six southern compact open clusters (supplemented in one case by U and R bands). These clusters generally have only scanty photometric data published, in some case only photoelectric or photographic. Together with adoption of modern reference isochrones, this has allowed us to derive improved values for their distance, reddening, age and main sequence morphology.

description: A social group is represented by a graph, where each pair of nodes is connected by two oppositely directed links. At the beginning, a given amount $p(i)$ of resources is assigned randomly to each node $i$. Also, each link $r(i,j)$ is initially represented by a random positive value, which means the percentage of resources of node $i$ which is offered to node $j$. Initially then, the graph is fully connected, i.e. all non-diagonal matrix elements $r(i,j)$ are different from zero. During the simulation, the amounts of resources $p(i)$ change according to the balance equation. Also, nodes reorganise their activity with time, going to give more resources to those which give them more. This is the rule of varying the coefficients $r(i,j)$. The result is that after some transient time, only some pairs $(m,n)$ of nodes survive with non-zero $p(m)$ and $p(n)$, each pair with symmetric and positive $r(m,n)=r(n,m)$. Other coefficients $r(m,i\ne n)$ vanish. Unpaired nodes remain with no resources, i.e. their $p(i)=0$, and they cease to be active, as they have nothing to offer. The percentage of survivors (i.e. those with with $p(i)$ positive) increases with the velocity of varying the numbers $r(i,j)$, and it slightly decreases with the size of the group. The picture and the results can be interpreted as a description of a social algorithm leading to marriages.

description: Web applications are gradually shifting toward resource-constrained mobile devices. As a result, the Web runtime system must simultaneously address two challenges: responsiveness and energy-efficiency. Conventional Web runtime systems fall short due to their reactive nature: they react to a user event only after it is triggered. The reactive strategy leads to local optimizations that schedule event executions one at a time, missing global optimization opportunities. This paper proposes Proactive Event Scheduling (PES). The key idea of PES is to proactively anticipate future events and thereby globally coordinate scheduling decisions across events. Specifically, PES predicts events that are likely to happen in the near future using a combination of statistical inference and application code analysis. PES then speculatively executes future events ahead of time in a way that satisfies the QoS constraints of all the events while minimizing the global energy consumption. Fundamentally, PES unlocks more optimization opportunities by enlarging the scheduling window, which enables coordination across both outstanding events and predicted events. Hardware measurements show that PES reduces the QoS violation and energy consumption by 61.2% and 26.5%, respectively, over the Android default Interactive CPU governor. It also reduces the QoS violation and energy consumption by 63.1% and 17.9%, respectively, compared to EBS, a state-of-the-art reactive scheduler.

title: The Dialogic Nature Of Online Discourse: A Corpus Analysis Of Online Discussions

description: This thesis reports on an analysis of an 11-million-word corpus of online discussions in a public educational site to understand the dialogic nature of online discourse. Two observations raise concerns that information exchange, socialization and online deliberation might be compromised in online spaces. Firstly, while anyone is free to express themselves online, they may not receive replies from others nor engage in sustained conversations with others. Secondly, afforded by the hyperlinking function, anyone can also easily share sources of information online by posting URLs, contributing to the circulation of (mis)information. This thesis thus explores how internet users can engage in meaningful dialogue with each other in online spaces through particular discourse and URL-posting practices. A corpus linguistic approach comprising keyword analysis and micro-analysis is adopted to investigate how conversations are initiated and unfold within threads. Three keyword analyses are reported: (1) initiating posts, i.e., posts that receive replies; (2) independent posts, i.e., posts that do not receive any replies; and (3) the replies themselves. Based on these keyword analyses and informed by the theoretical concepts of dialogic space and intersubjectivity, linguistic features and discourse practices characterizing the two types of posts and replies are identified and explored. Similarly, URL-posting practices are also investigated to explore their role in online discourse. Findings show that users draw on different discourse practices to invite replies and sustain conversations with others, although there are times users respond to the content on the site instead of addressing others. Importantly, discourse practices that do not entertain others’ voices are found to deter others from responding or hinder their conversations, especially in the case of disagreement. In fact, disagreement provides an opportunity for users to explore different voices and achieve mutual understanding when discourse practices facilitative of intersubjectivity are utilized. Finally, although most users are positive towards URL-posting, the posting of URLs is seen to either facilitate or hamper their conversations, depending on users’ posting and discourse practices. Overall, this thesis highlights the role of various discourse practices in creating a dialogic space. A dialogic space allows multiple voices to be entertained in processes of intersubjectivity, such that users can engage with each other’s subjectivities, whether they agree or disagree. Together, these findings highlight users’ agency as enacted through language in online spaces and show that the discursive construction of online dialogic space should be one aspect of digital literacies of which internet users be made aware.

description: Hawking's argument for information loss in black hole evaporation rests on the assumption of independent Hilbert spaces for the interior and exterior of a black hole. We argue that such independence cannot be established without incorporating strong gravitational effects that undermine locality and invalidate the use of quantum field theory in a semiclassical background geometry. These considerations should also play a role in a deeper understanding of horizon complementarity.

title: Dissecting Functional Heterogeneity in the Human CD8⁺ T Cell Compartment to Characterize Superior Effector Responses

description: The constant development of technologies capable to define features at the level of single cells enabled to investigate cellular heterogeneity that was previously inaccessible due to population averaging. In this work, I took advantage of cutting-edge single cell technologies to unravel functional diversification within the human CD8⁺ T cell compartment, with the final aim to identify T cell subsets that can exert superior effector responses against viruses and cancer. In mice, the capability to exert effector responses correlates with TCR sensitivity for self-Ags, as assessed by indirect measurement of surface expression of CD5. Equivalent functional heterogeneity has not been previously described in humans. We investigated the CD8⁺ naïve T (TN) cell pool, and discovered the presence of two discrete subsets with distinct effector differentiation potential, as defined by the differential expression of the chemokine receptor CXCR3. Among these, CXCR3⁺ (TNR3⁺) cells showed increased cytokine production and effector differentiation potential, both in vitro and in vivo. These features correlated with the expression of T cell receptors suggesting enhanced interactions with p:MHC-I complexes. Thus, functional heterogeneity exists in CD8⁺ TN cells, thereby showing that the effector differentiation potential is predetermined at the level of pre-immune repertoire.

 Stem-like characteristics of T cells have been a long-standing interest of the lab. T cell memory relies on the generation of antigen-specific precursors with stem-like properties. However, precise definition of these progenitors and how they shape memory and effector differentiation is still unclear. We characterized subsets of clonally, phenotypically, functionally, epigenetically and transcriptionally distinct stem-like CCR7⁺ CD8⁺ memory T cells, identified by the presence or absence of inhibitory receptors PD-1 and TIGIT. We found that PD-1-TIGIT- progenitors were committed to a functional lineage, while PD-1⁺TIGIT⁺ progenitors were committed to a dysfunctional, exhausted-like lineage. Collectively, these data demonstrate the existence of parallel differentiation programs within the early-differentiated CD8⁺ memory T cell compartment, providing fundamental information for the identification of T cells that are more suitable for cell-based immunotherapies.

description: Computer vision technology is being used by many but remains representative of only a few. People have reported misbehavior of computer vision models, including offensive prediction results and lower performance for underrepresented groups. Current computer vision models are typically developed using datasets consisting of manually annotated images or videos; the data and label distributions in these datasets are critical to the models' behavior. In this paper, we examine ImageNet, a large-scale ontology of images that has spurred the development of many modern computer vision methods. We consider three key factors within the "person" subtree of ImageNet that may lead to problematic behavior in downstream computer vision technology: (1) the stagnant concept vocabulary of WordNet, (2) the attempt at exhaustive illustration of all categories with images, and (3) the inequality of representation in the images within concepts. We seek to illuminate the root causes of these concerns and take the first steps to mitigate them constructively.
