A STUDY ON CHILD ABUSE AND ITS AWARENESS
Creators: name: P. Mayil Rajan* & Dr. Moses Daniel**
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Child abuse is physical, mental and psychological maltreatment that occurs in our society. The term child abuse is often interchangeably, although some researchers make a distinction between them, treating to cover neglect, exploitation, and trafficking. In this study it is helpful to control all the problems which is faced by the children both male and female in our society. The whole of recorded history contains references to acts that can be described as child abuse or child maltreatment, but professional inquiry into the topic is generally considered to have begun in the 1960s. Definitions of child maltreatment can vary across the sectors of society which deal with the issue, such as child protection agencies, legal and medical communities, public health officials, researchers, practitioners, and child advocates. Since members of these various fields tend to use their own definitions, communication across disciplines can be limited, hampering efforts to identify, assess, track, treat, and prevent child maltreatment.

description: The existence of a worldwide indoor floorplans database can lead to significant growth in location-based applications, especially for indoor environments. In this paper, we present CrowdInside: a crowdsourcing-based system for the automatic construction of buildings floorplans. CrowdInside leverages the smart phones sensors that are ubiquitously available with humans who use a building to automatically and transparently construct accurate motion traces. These accurate traces are generated based on a novel technique for reducing the errors in the inertial motion traces by using the points of interest in the indoor environment, such as elevators and stairs, for error resetting. The collected traces are then processed to detect the overall floorplan shape as well as higher level semantics such as detecting rooms and corridors shapes along with a variety of points of interest in the environment. Implementation of the system in two testbeds, using different Android phones, shows that CrowdInside can detect the points of interest accurately with 0.2% false positive rate and 1.3% false negative rate. In addition, the proposed error resetting technique leads to more than 12 times enhancement in the median distance error compared to the state-of-the-art. Moreover, the detailed floorplan can be accurately estimated with a a relatively small number of traces. This number is amortized over the number of users of the building. We also discuss possible extensions to CrowdInside for inferring even higher level semantics about the discovered floorplans.

description: Interference of light fields plays an important role in various high-precision measurement schemes. It has been shown that super resolving phase measurements beyond the standard coherent state limit can be obtained either by using maximally entangled multi-particle states of light or using complex detection approaches. Here we show that super resolving phase measurements at the shot noise limit can be achieved without resorting to non-classical optical states or to low-efficiency detection processes. Using robust coherent states of light, high-efficiency homodyne detection and a deterministic binarization processing technique, we show a narrowing of the interference fringes that scales with 1/Sqrt{N} where N is the mean number of photons of the coherent state. Experimentally we demonstrate a 12-fold narrowing at the shot noise limit.

Anomaly Inflow and Membrane Dynamics in the QCD Vacuum

description: Large $N_c$ and holographic arguments, as well as Monte Carlo results, suggest that the topological structure of the QCD vacuum is dominated by codimension-one membranes which appear as thin dipole layers of topological charge. Such membranes arise naturally as $D6$ branes in the holographic formulation of QCD based on IIA string theory. The polarizability of these membranes leads to a vacuum energy $\propto θ^2$, providing the origin of nonzero topological susceptibility. Here we show that the axial U(1) anomaly can be formulated as anomaly inflow on the brane surfaces. A 4D gauge transformation at the brane surface separates into a 3D gauge transformation of components within the brane and the transformation of the transverse component. The in-brane gauge transformation induces currents of an effective Chern-Simons theory on the brane surface, while the transformation of the transverse component describes the transverse motion of the brane and is related to the Ramond-Ramond closed string field in the holographic formulation of QCD. The relation between the surface currents and the transverse motion of the brane is dictated by the descent equations of Yang-Mills theory.

description: We report on the optical spectroscopic follow up observations of the candidate counterparts to four INTEGRAL sources: IGR J04069+5042, IGR J06552-1146, IGR J21188+4901 and IGR J22014+6034. The candidate counterparts were determined with Chandra, and the optical observations were performed with 1.5-m RTT-150 telescope (TÜBİTAK National Observatory, Antalya, Turkey) and 2.4-m Hiltner Telescope (MDM Observatory, Kitt Peak, Arizona). Our spectroscopic results show that one of the two candidates of IGR J04069+5042 and the one observed for IGR J06552-1146 could be active late-type stars in RS CVn systems. However, according to the likelihood analysis based on Chandra and INTEGRAL, two optically weaker sources in the INTEGRAL error circle of IGR J06552-1146 have higher probabilities to be the actual counterpart. The candidate counterparts of IGR J21188+4901 are classified as an active M-type star and a late-type star. Among the optical spectra of four candidates of IGR J22014+6034, two show Hαemission lines, one is a late-type star and the other is a M type. The likelihood analysis favors a candidate with no distinguishing features in the optical spectrum. Two of the candidates classified as M type dwarfs are similar to some IGR candidates claimed to be symbiotic stars. However, some of the prominent features of symbiotic systems are missing in our spectra, and their NIR colors are not consistent with those expected for giants. We consider the IR colors of all IGR candidates claimed to be symbiotic systems and find that low resolution optical spectrum may not be enough for conclusive identification.

description: Molecular nanomagnets are among the first examples of spin systems of finite size and have been test-beds for addressing a range of elusive but important phenomena in quantum dynamics. In fact, for short-enough timescales the spin wavefunctions evolve coherently according to the an appropriate cluster spin-Hamiltonian, whose structure can be tailored at the synthetic level to meet specific requirements. Unfortunately, to this point it has been impossible to determine the spin dynamics directly. If the molecule is sufficiently simple, the spin motion can be indirectly assessed by an approximate model Hamiltonian fitted to experimental measurements of various types. Here we show that recently-developed instrumentation yields the four-dimensional inelastic-neutron scattering function S(Q,E) in vast portions of reciprocal space and enables the spin dynamics to be determined with no need of any model Hamiltonian. We exploit the Cr8 antiferromagnetic ring as a benchmark to demonstrate the potential of this new approach. For the first time we extract a model-free picture of the quantum dynamics of a molecular nanomagnet. This allows us, for example, to examine how a quantum fluctuation propagates along the ring and to directly test the degree of validity of the Néel-vector-tunneling description of the spin dynamics.

Three applications are given: the first is about new results on the sheaf property of harmonic functions, the second is a PDE proof of the fact that the composition of a subminimizer with a convex and non-decreasing function is again a subminimizer, and the third is the fact that the Busemann function associated to a line is harmonic on infinitesimally Hilbertian CD(0,N) spaces.

description: This thesis provides an intervention into the theoretical literature on the relationship between the work of the later Wittgenstein and the psychoanalytic tradition of thought, specifically looking to situate Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations in a more sustained conversation with the lectures and writings of Jacques Lacan. In doing so, it seeks to contribute to the scholarship in the philosophy of the social sciences by highlighting an under-theorized relation between two ostensibly highl different theorists. Departing from traditional considerations of Lacanian social and political theorists, who emphasize Lacan’s structuralist linguistic approach in relation to Wittgenstein’s early thought, it emphasizes Lacan’s anti-philosophical criticisms of traditional epistemology and his critique of positivism and scientism in social thought. This theoretical focal point brings Lacan into conversation with Wittgenstein’s anti-theoretical, anti-philosophical impulses in his later work. Through juxtaposing these thinkers in this way, this project seeks to reflect upon the relation between science, social science, and philosophy, and points to the broader implications this has for normative political theory.

description: We consider the three-dimensional instability of a layer of horizontal magnetic field in a polytropic atmosphere where, contrary to previous studies, the field lines in the initial state are not unidirectional. We show that if the twist is initially concentrated inside the unstable layer, the modifications of the instability reported by several authors (see e.g. Cattaneo et al. (1990)) are only observed when the calculation is restricted to two dimensions. In three dimensions, the usual interchange instability occurs, in the direction fixed by the field lines at the interface between the layer and the field-free region. We therefore introduce a new configuration: the instability now develops in a weakly magnetised atmosphere where the direction of the field can vary with respect to the direction of the strong unstable field below, the twist being now concentrated at the upper interface. Both linear stability analysis and non-linear direct numerical simulations are used to study this configuration. We show that from the small-scale interchange instability, large-scale twisted coherent magnetic structures are spontaneously formed, with possible implications to the formation of active regions from a deep-seated solar magnetic field.

description: In today's networked 21" century, Social Media has changed the environment in which business operates and has reinstated the way in which organizations communicate and engage with their stakeholders. Simultaneously, Social Media has given opportunities to customers for expressing their opinions and sharing their experiences related to a brand's product. At the outset, it is essential for businesses to know and understand how customers see their products, what they feel about their products and how customers feel entitled to a product's brand. Thinking from a customer's perspective, social media networks like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. have become an integral part of their daily life; which has transformed the method in which consumers assimilate information about a product, consumers communicate with each other on product queries, consumers share their opinions about their experiences of the product used.
Celestial Ephemerides in an Expanding Universe

description: Post-Newtonian theory was instrumental in conducting the critical experimental tests of general relativity and in building the astronomical ephemerides of celestial bodies in the solar system with an unparalleled precision. The cornerstone of the theory is the postulate that the solar system is gravitationally isolated from the rest of the universe and the background spacetime is asymptotically flat. The present article extends this theoretical concept and formulates the principles of celestial dynamics of particles and light moving in gravitational field of a localized astronomical system embedded to the expanding Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) universe. We formulate the precise mathematical concept of the Newtonian limit of Einstein's field equations in the conformally-flat FLRW spacetime and analyze the geodesic motion of massive particles and light in this limit. We prove that by doing conformal spacetime transformations, one can reduce the equations of motion of particles and light to the classical form of the Newtonian theory. However, the time arguments in the equations of motion of particles and light differ from each other in terms being proportional to the Hubble constant, H. This leads to the important conclusion that the equations of light propagation used currently by Space Navigation Centers for fitting range and Doppler-tracking observations of celestial bodies are missing some terms of the cosmological origin that are proportional to the Hubble constant, H. We also prove that the Hubble expansion does not affect the atomic time scale used in creation of astronomical ephemerides. We derive the cosmological correction to the light travel time equation and argue that their measurement opens an exciting opportunity to determine the local value of the Hubble constant, H, in the solar system independently of cosmological observations.

A multilayer model for thermal infrared emission of Saturn's rings. III: Thermal inertia inferred from Cassini CIRS

description: The thermal inertia values of Saturn's main rings (the A, B, and C rings and the Cassini division) are derived by applying our thermal model to azimuthally scanned spectra taken by the Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS). Model fits show the thermal inertia of ring particles to be 16, 13, 20, and 11 Jm$^{-2}$K$^{-1}$s$^{-1/2}$ for the A, B, and C rings, and the Cassini division, respectively. However, there are systematic deviations between modeled and observed temperatures in Saturn's shadow depending on solar phase angle, and these deviations indicate that the apparent thermal inertia increases with solar phase angle. This dependence is likely to be explained if large slowly spinning particles have lower thermal inertia values than those for small fast spinning particles because the thermal emission of slow rotators is relatively stronger than that of fast rotators at low phase and vise versa. Additional parameter fits, which assume that slow and fast rotators have different thermal inertia values, show the derived thermal inertia values of slow (fast) rotators to be 8 (77), 8 (27), 9 (34), 5 (55) Jm$^{-2}$K$^{-1}$s$^{-1/2}$ for the A, B, and C rings, and the Cassini division, respectively. The values for fast rotators are still much smaller than those for solid ice with no porosity. Thus, fast rotators are likely to have surface regolith layers, but these may not be as fluffy as those for slow rotators, probably because the capability of holding regolith particles is limited for fast rotators due to the strong centrifugal force on surfaces of fast rotators. Other additional parameter fits, in which radii of fast rotators are varied, indicate that particles less than $\sim$ 1 cm should not occupy more than a half of the cross section for the A, B, and C rings.

description: Detrimental effects of chronic stress on healthcare professionals have been well-established, but the implementation and evaluation of effective interventions aimed at improving distress coping remains inadequate. Individualized mHealth interventions incorporating sensor feedback have been proposed as a promising approach. This study aimed to investigate the impact of individualized, sensor-based mHealth interventions focusing on stress and physical activity on distress coping in healthcare professionals. The study utilized a multi-arm, parallel group randomized controlled trial design, comparing five intervention groups (three variations of web-based training and two variations of an app training) that represented varying levels of individualization to a control group. Both self-reported questionnaire data (collected using Limesurvey) as well as electrocardiography and accelerometry-based sensory data (collected using Mesana Sensor) were assessed at baseline and post-intervention (after eight weeks). Of the 995 eligible participants, 170 (26%) completed the post-intervention measurement (Group 1: N = 21; Group 2: N = 23; Group 3: N = 7; Group 4: N = 34; Group 5: N = 16; Control Group: N = 69). MANOVA results indicated small to moderate time-by-group interaction effects for physical activity-related outcomes, including moderate to vigorous physical activity (F(1,5) = 5.8, p = ≤0.001, η2p = 0.057) and inactivity disruption (F(1,5) = 11.2, p = <0.001, η2p = 0.100), in the app-based intervention groups, but not for step counts and inactivity. No changes were observed in stress-related heart rate variability parameters over time. Despite a high dropout rate and a complex study design, the individualized interventions showed initial positive effects on physical activity. However, no significant changes in stress-related outcomes were observed, suggesting that the intervention duration was insufficient to induce physiological adaptations that would result in improved distress coping.

description: We propose a variant of Alternating-time Temporal Logic (ATL) grounded in the agents' operational know-how, as defined by their libraries of abstract plans. Inspired by ATLES, a variant itself of ATL, it is possible in our logic to explicitly refer to "rational" strategies for agents developed under the Belief-Desire-Intention agent programming paradigm. This allows us to express and verify properties of BDI systems using ATL-type logical frameworks.

description: This paper considers a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Gaussian wiretap channel model, where there exists a transmitter, a legitimate receiver and an eavesdropper, each equipped with multiple antennas. In this paper, we first revisit the rank property of the optimal input covariance matrix that achieves the secrecy capacity of the multiple antenna MIMO Gaussian wiretap channel under the average power constraint. Next, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on the MIMO wiretap channel parameters such that the optimal input covariance matrix is full-rank, and we fully characterize the resulting covariance matrix as well. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the proposed theoretical findings.
Age Variation in COVID-19 Treatment in Mexico: A Retrospective Cohort Study} \date{August 2021

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented stress on health systems throughout the world and the immense number of people infected has created demands for health care resources so high that rationing of medical equipment, especially ventilators, is inevitable. Administrators and physicians may follow certain guidelines or objectives and prioritize one types of patients over the other. Using data from Mexico, I study how intubation decisions vary with respect to patients' age after controlling for mortality risks. Intubation rates vary widely among patients of different characteristics; I estimate the mortality risks of patients and identify the high-risk ones using Cox proportional hazards model and develop a heteroskedastic probit model to predict the probability of a high-risk patient receiving intubation. My estimated model suggests that old patients (aged 70 - 100) have uniformly lower chance of receiving intubation across all risk levels than other patients, where at a certain risk level, middle-aged patients (aged 40 - 69) can have as much as 43\% higher chance of receiving intubation than old patients. On the other hand, there is relatively smaller variation between how younger (aged 18 - 39) and middle-aged patients are treated. The findings in this study could help administrators and physicians make more informed decision regarding triage of patients.

PERSPECTIVES OF WOMEN AMONG DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS IN TAMIL LITERATURE
Creators: name: Dr. G. Krishnakumari
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The masculine perspective has dominated Indian literature, which has never been equally shaped by both sexes. Even though there aren't many female poets who broke the mold and left a lasting impression on Tamil literature. Male-centric priorities have been discovered to be predominant in many historical literary works, from the medieval era to the second part of the 20th century. Inquiring minds want to know what makes early Tamil literature unique. Women during the earliest age of Tamil poetry, play very major parts in the early Tamil epics during the Sangam Era. The most widely read literary genre is poetry. It has received praise. It is adored by women because it allows them to express their feelings, which come from their soft hearts.
Regolith grain sizes of Saturn's rings inferred from Cassini-CIRS far-infrared spectra

description: We analyze far-infrared (10-650 cm$^{-1}$) emissivity spectra of Saturn's main rings obtained by the Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS). In modeling of the spectra, the single scattering albedos of regolith grains are calculated using the Mie theory, diffraction is removed with the delta-Eddington approximation, and the hemispherical emissivities of macroscopic free-floating ring particles are calculated using the Hapke's isotropic scattering model. Only pure crystalline water ice is considered and the size distribution of regolith grains is estimated. We find that good fits are obtained if the size distribution is broad ranging from 1 $μ$m to 1-10 cm with a power law index of $ \sim 3$. This means that the largest regolith grains are comparable to the smallest free-floating particles in size and that the power law indices for both free-floating particles and regolith grains are similar to each other. The apparent relative abundance of small grains increases with decreasing solar phase angle (or increasing mean temperature). This trend is particularly strong for the C ring and is probably caused by eclipse cooling in Saturn's shadow, which relatively suppresses warming up of grains larger than the thermal skin depth ($\sim$ 1 mm) under subsequent solar illumination.

Gordon Metric Revisited
Creators: name: Novello, M.
name: Bittencourt, E.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that Gordon metric belongs to a larger class of geometries, which are responsible to describe the paths of accelerated bodies in moving dielectrics as geodesics in a metric $\hat q_{μν}$ different from the background one. This map depends only on the background metric and on the motion of the bodies under consideration. As a consequence, this method describes a more general property that concerns the elimination of any kind of force acting on bodies by a suitable change of the substratum metric.

Statistics of anomalously localized states at the center of band E=0 in the one-dimensional Anderson localization model

description: We consider the distribution function $P(|ψ|^{2})$ of the eigenfunction amplitude at the center-of-band (E=0) anomaly in the one-dimensional tight-binding chain with weak uncorrelated on-site disorder (the one-dimensional Anderson model). The special emphasis is on the probability of the anomalously localized states (ALS) with $|ψ|^{2}$ much larger than the inverse typical localization length $\ell_{0}$. Using the solution to the generating function $Φ_{an}(u,ϕ)$ found recently in our works we find the ALS probability distribution $P(|ψ|^{2})$ at $|ψ|^{2}\ell_{0} >> 1$. As an auxiliary preliminary step we found the asymptotic form of the generating function $Φ_{an}(u,ϕ)$ at $u >> 1$ which can be used to compute other statistical properties at the center-of-band anomaly. We show that at moderately large values of $|ψ|^{2}\ell_{0}$, the probability of ALS at E=0 is smaller than at energies away from the anomaly. However, at very large values of $|ψ|^{2}\ell_{0}$, the tendency is inverted: it is exponentially easier to create a very strongly localized state at E=0 than at energies away from the anomaly. We also found the leading term in the behavior of $P(|ψ|^{2})$ at small $|ψ|^{2}<< \ell_{0}^{-1}$ and show that it is consistent with the exponential localization corresponding to the Lyapunov exponent found earlier by Kappus and Wegner and Derrida and Gardner.

Asymptotic preserving schemes for highly oscillatory kinetic equation

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: This work is devoted to the numerical simulation of a Vlasov-Poisson model describing a charged particle beam under the action of a rapidly oscillating external electric field. We construct an Asymptotic Preserving numerical scheme for this kinetic equation in the highly oscillatory limit. This scheme enables to simulate the problem without using any time step refinement technique. Moreover, since our numerical method is not based on the derivation of the simulation of asymptotic models, it works in the regime where the solution does not oscillate rapidly, and in the highly oscillatory regime as well. Our method is based on a "double-scale" reformulation of the initial equation, with the introduction of an additional periodic variable.

The simulation has been done in conjunction with QPSK digital modulation and compared with uncoded resultstal modulation. In the fading channels, it is found via computer simulation that the performance of the Convolution interleaved based OFDM systems outperform than that of CRC interleaved OFDM system as well as uncoded OFDM channels.

Substellar-Mass Condensations in Prestellar Cores

description: We present combined Submillimeter-Array (SMA) + single-dish images of the (sub)millimeter dust continuum emission toward two prestellar cores SM1 and B2-N5 in the nearest star cluster forming region, $ρ$ Ophiuchus. Our combined images indicate that SM1 and B2-N5 consist of three and four condensations, respectively, with masses of $10^{-2}-10^{-1}M_\odot$ and sizes of a few hundred AU. The individual condensations have mean densities of $10^8-10^9$ cm$^{-3}$ and the masses are comparable to or larger than the critical Bonner-Ebert mass, indicating that the self-gravity plays an important role in the dynamical evolution of the condensations. The coalescence timescale of these condensations is estimated to be about $10^4$ yr, which is comparable to the local gravitational collapse timescale, suggesting that merging of the condensations, instead of accretion, plays an essential role in the star formation process. These results challenge the standard theory of star formation, where a single, rather featureless prestellar core collapses to form at most a couple of condensations, each of which potentially evolves into a protostar that is surrounded by a rotating disk where planets are created.

Mediation: Ein ergebnisorientierter oder transformativer Prozess? Am Beispiel des Dialog-forum Feste Fehmarnbeltquerung
Creators: name: Aunin, Jellena
Publisher: name: Universität Hamburg
Year: 2023
Subjects: Mediation, Dialogprozess, Bürgerbeteiligung, Großbauprojekt

description: Staatliche Großbauprojekte sind häufig geprägt von vielen Stakeholdern mit konträren Ansprüchen. Um daraus entstehende Konflikte frühzeitig anzugehen und nachhaltig zu lösen, werden zunehmend Mediationsprozesse durchgeführt. Dies erfolgt in Form eines Dialogforums auch bei dem Konflikt zur Errichtung der Festen Fehmarnbeltquerung, einem Tunnel mit Schienen- und Straßenverbindung vom deutschen Fehmarn bis zum dänischen Rødbyhavn. Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich damit auseinander, welcher Mediationsstil in diesem Dialogforum angewandt wurde und ob dieser zu dem Mediationskontext passt. Die Basis hierfür bieten insbesondere Redebeiträge der Betroffenen. Deutlich wird, dass neben dem Zeitpunkt, zu dem der Mediationsprozess eingesetzt wird, vor allem auch die Unabhängigkeit der Mediation relevant ist. Ein ergebnisorientierter Mediationsansatz erscheint dabei weniger zielführend als ein transformativer Ansatz, da bei der Vielzahl von Beteiligten Konflikte auf verschiedenen Ebenen zusammentreffen, die langfristig gelöst werden müssen.

title: Volatility spillover and hedging effectiveness among crude oil and Islamic markets: evidence from the Gulf region

description: This paper studies the volatility spillover between oil price and conventional and Islamic stock markets. We use a sample of five standard MSCI indexes and their Islamic counterparts from five countries from the Gulf region (Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, UAE) and Brent crude oil price index, obtained from MSCI and Energy Information Administration (EIA), to represent the world oil market. We analyze the spillover effects between crude oil and Islamic and conventional indexes using the bivariate VARMA-BEKK-GARCH model of Ling and McAleer (2013), which includes spillover effects in return and variance. Our findings show particular specificities of Islamic marketplaces in reducing the volatility transmission and lowering the volatility persistence, which gives the investors and market participants an opportunity in terms of international diversification and hedging effectiveness. Although our results are indicative of crude oil hedging strategies, they also testify the distinction of Islamic financial markets and raises the issue of strategic posture and competitiveness in the global financial system.
