description: The development of neuroprosthetic devices promises to allow previously immobile patients to control the movement of an external device using only their brains' electrical activity. Prediction algorithms used to control such devices rely on models relating the firing rates of a population of neurons to intended movement variables such as direction. However, since no data on real arm movement will be available prior to use of the prosthetic, and recent research has shown that neurons may change their firing patterns in response to visual feedback, an algorithm is needed that in addition to predicting movement can also perform real time estimation of the model. This article proposes statistical methods for performing these related tasks and demonstrates the methods' effectiveness using data taken from a series of experiments using a rhesus monkey.

description: Ship traffic has been increasing in the Canadian Arctic, and with it, underwater noise. Underwater noise from ships is known to cause a number of impacts on marine animals, and is therefore an important concern in the Arctic. This report is part of a larger study funded by the Nunavut General Monitoring Plan. In the report, we examine ship traffic in the Kitikmeot Region and Lancaster Sound, Nunavut (Northwest Passage – southern route), and model the noise levels caused by all of the ship traffic between 2015 and 2018. Ship noise peaks in August and September of every year analysed. Modeled ship noise was highest within Eclipse Sound due to the large volume of traffic within that area, but was also high south of Victoria Island in Dease Strait where ships are spatially constricted to following a relatively narrow route. Future work should be carried out to validate these modeling results with acoustic measurements in different parts of this region. Future work should also examine the overlap between ship noise and various marine animals, such as narwhal and beluga, to estimate the exposure of these animals to ship noise. ᐃᖅᑲᒃᑯᑦ. ᐃᖅᑲᒥ ᓂᐱᖏᑦ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᕐᓃᙶᖅᑐᑦ ᐃᒪᕐᒥᐅᑕᑦ ᐆᒪᔪᖏᖕᓂ ᐊᑦᑐᐃᓂᖃᓲᖑᖕᒪᑕ, ᐊᒻᒪᓗ ᑕᐃᒪᐃᒻᒪᑦ ᐱᒻᒪᕆᐅᔪᒃᑯᑦ ᐃᓱᒫᓘᑎᒋᔭᐅᕗᖅ ᐅᑭᐅᖅᑕᖅᑐᒥ. ᑖᓐᓇ ᐅᓂᒃᑳᖅ ᐃᓚᒋᔭᐅᕗᖅ ᐊᖏᓂᖅᓴᒥᒃ ᖃᐅᔨᓴᖅᑕᒥᓂᐅᔪᒧᑦ ᑮᓇᐅᔭᖃᖅᑎᑕᐅᔪᖅ ᓄᓇᕗᒻᒥ ᑕᒪᐃᓐᓄᑦ ᐅᐊᑦᑎᓂᕐᒧᑦ ᐸᕐᓇᐅᑎᖓᓂᒃ. ᐅᓂᒃᑳᕐᒥ, ᖃᐅᔨᓴᖅᐳᒍᑦ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᒃᑯᑦ ᐃᖏᕐᕋᖃᑦᑕᕐᓂᖏᑦ ᕿᑎᕐᒥᐅᒥ ᐊᒻᒪᓗ ᑕᓪᓗᕈᑎᑉ ᐃᒪᖓᓂ, ᓄᓇᕗ (ᐅᑭᐅᖅᑕᖅᑑᑉ ᓱᓪᓗᐊᓗᐊ − ᓂᒋᖅᐸᓯᖓᒍᑦ ᐊᖅᑯᑎᖓ), ᐊᒻᒪᓗ ᑖᒃᑯᐊ ᓂᐱᖏᑕ ᓴᙱᓂᖏᑦ ᐋᖅᑭᓱᖅᑕᐅᓗᑎᑦ ᖃᓄᑎᒋ ᓂᐱᖃᕐᒪᖔᑕ ᑕᒪᐃᓐᓂ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᒃᑯᑦ ᐃᖏᕐᕋᕙᑦᑐᒥᓃᑦ 2015 ᐊᒻᒪᓗ 2018 ᐊᑯᕐᖓᖓᓂ. ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᒃᑯᑦ ᓂᐱᖃᕐᓂᖅᓴᐅᓕᓲᖅ ᐋᒡᒌᓯᒥ ᐊᒻᒪᓗ ᓯᑏᕝᕙ ᓂᐊᕐᕌᒍᑕᒫᑦ ᖃᐅᔨᓴᖅᑕᒥᓂᐅᔪᑦ ᒪᓕᑦᑐᒋᑦ. ᐆᑦᑐᕋᖅᑕᐅᓯᒪᔪᑦ ᐋᖅᑭᓱᖅᑕᐅᓯᒪᓪᓗᑎᑦ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᕐᒦᙶᖅᑐᑦ ᓂᐱᖏᑦ ᖁᑦᑎᓂᖅᐹᖑᓯᒪᕗᖅ ᑕᓯᐅᔭᕐᒥ ᐊᒥᓲᓂᖏᖕᓄᑦ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᑦ ᐃᖏᕐᕋᔪᑦ ᑕᐅᕘᓇ, ᑭᓯᐊᓂᓗ ᖁᑦᑎᓛᖑᓯᒪᒋᕗᑦ ᓂᒋᐊᓂ ᐃᖃᓗᒃᑑᑦᓯᐊᑉ ᕿᑭᖅᑕᓂᖓᑕ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᑦ ᐊᑕᐅᑦᑎᒨᕐᓂᖅᓴᐅᓲᖑᓪᓗᑎᑦ ᑐᐊᓗᐊᕐᓂᖓᓄᑦ ᐊᖅᑯᑎᖓ. ᓯᕗᓂᒃᓴᒥ ᐃᖅᑲᓇᐃᔮᕆᔭᐅᔭᕆᐊᓖᑦ ᑕᒪᒃᑯᐊ ᐋᖅᑭᓱᖅᑕᐅᓯᒪᙳᐊᖅᑐᑦ ᓇᓗᓇᐃᖅᑕᐅᖁᓪᓗᒋᑦ ᖃᐅᔨᓴᖅᑕᒥᓃᑦ ᖃᓄᑎᒋ ᓂᐱᖃᖅᑎᒋᒻᒪᖔᑕ ᐊᔾᔨᒌᙱᑦᑐᓂᑦ ᐊᕕᑦᑐᖅᓯᒪᔪᓂ. ᓯᕗᓂᒃᓴᒥᓗ ᐃᖅᑲᓇᐃᔮᕆᔭᐅᔭᕆᐊᖃᕆᕗᑦ ᖃᐅᔨᓴᕈᓐᓇᕋᔭᖅᑐᑎᑦ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᒦᙶᖅᑐᑦ ᓂᐱᖏᑦ ᐊᒻᒪᓗ ᐊᔾᔨᒌᙱᑦᑐᑦ ᐃᒪᕐᒥᐅᑕᐃᑦ ᐆᒪᔪᐃᑦ, ᓲᕐᓗᒃ ᑐᒑᓖᑦ ᐊᒻᒪᓗ ᕿᓚᓗᒐᐃᑦ, ᓇᓚᐅᑦᑖᖅᑕᐅᖁᓪᓗᒋᑦ ᑕᒪᒃᑯᐊ ᐆᒪᔪᑦ ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔪᐊᑉ ᓂᐱᖏᖕᓄᑦ ᐊᑦᑐᖅᑕᐅᓂᖃᓲᖑᖕᒪᖔᑕ ᖃᓄᑎᒋ.

description: Emission-lines in the form of filamentary structures is common in bright clusters characterized by short cooling times. In the Perseus cluster, cold molecular gas, tightly linked to the H$α$ filaments, has been recently revealed by CO observations. In order to understand the origin of these filamentary structures, we have investigated the evolution of the hot ICM gas perturbed by the AGN central activity in a Perseus like cluster. Using very-high resolution TreeSPH simulations combined with a multiphase model and a model of plasma bubbles, we have been able to follow the density and temperature evolution of the disturbed ICM gas around the bubbles. Our simulations show that a fraction of the $1-2 \rm{keV}$ gas present at the center of clusters is trapped and entrained by the rising buoyant bubble to higher radius where the AGN heating is less efficient. The radiative cooling makes it cool in a few tens of Myr below $10^4 \rm{K}$, forming cold filamentary structures in the wake and in the rim of the bubbles.

description: We measure the resonant forward scattering of light by a highly saturated atomic medium through the flashes emitted immediately after an abrupt extinction of the probe beam. The experiment is done in a dilute regime where the phenomena are well captured using the independent scattering approximation. Comparing our measurements to a model based on Maxwell-Bloch equations, our experimental results are consistent with contributions from only the elastic component, whereas the attenuation of the coherent transmission power is linked to the elastic and inelastic scatterings. In the large saturation regime and at the vicinity of the atomic resonance, we derive an asymptotic expression relating the elastic scattering power to the forward-scattered power.

description: BackgroundEvidence of an oseltamivir treatment effect on influenza A(H3N2) virus infections in hospitalised patients is incomplete.AimsThis cohort study aimed to evaluate risk factors for death among PCR-confirmed hospitalised cases of seasonal influenza A(H3N2) of all ages and the impact of oseltamivir.MethodsParticipants included all 332 PCR-confirmed influenza A(H3N2) cases diagnosed between 30 August 2016 and 17 March 2017 in an English university teaching Hospital. Oseltamivir treatment effect on odds of inpatient death was assessed by backward stepwise multivariable logistic regression analysis.ResultsThe odds of death were reduced by two thirds (odds ratio (OR): 0.32; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.11-0.93), in inpatients treated with a standard course of oseltamivir 75 mg two times daily for 5 days - compared with those untreated with oseltamivir, after adjustment for age, sex, current excess alcohol intake, receipt of 2016/17 seasonal influenza vaccine, serum haemoglobin and hospital vs community attribution of acquisition of influenza.ConclusionsOseltamivir treatment given according to National Institutes of Clinical Excellence (NICE); United States Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines was shown to be effective in reducing the odds of mortality in inpatients with PCR-confirmed seasonal influenza A(H3N2) after adjustment in a busy routine English hospital setting. Our results highlight the importance of hospitals complying with relevant guidelines for prompt seasonal influenza PCR testing and ensuring standard oseltamivir treatment to all PCR-confirmed cases of seasonal influenza.
Consistency under Sampling of Exponential Random Graph Models

description: The growing availability of network data and of scientific interest in distributed systems has led to the rapid development of statistical models of network structure. Typically, however, these are models for the entire network, while the data consists only of a sampled sub-network. Parameters for the whole network, which is what is of interest, are estimated by applying the model to the sub-network. This assumes that the model is consistent under sampling, or, in terms of the theory of stochastic processes, that it defines a projective family. Focussing on the popular class of exponential random graph models (ERGMs), we show that this apparently trivial condition is in fact violated by many popular and scientifically appealing models, and that satisfying it drastically limits ERGM’s expressive power. These results are actually special cases of more general ones about exponential families of dependent random variables, which we also prove. Using such results, we offer easily checked conditions for the consistency of maximum likelihood estimation in ERGMs, and discuss some possible constructive responses.

description: The J1-J2 square lattice Heisenberg model with spin S=1/2 has three phases with long-range magnetic order and two unconventionally ordered phases depending on the ratio of exchange constants. It describes a number of recently found layered vanadium oxide compounds. A simple means of investigating the ground state is the study of the magnetization curve and high-field susceptibility. We discuss these quantities by using the spin-wave theory and the exact diagonalization in the whole J1-J2 plane. We compare both results and find good overall agreement in the sectors of the phase diagram with magnetic order. Close to the disordered regions the magnetization curve shows strong deviations from the classical linear behaviour caused by large quantum fluctuations and spin-wave approximation breaks down. On the FM side (J1<0) where one approaches the quantum gapless spin nematic ground state this region is surprisingly large. We find that inclusion of second order spin-wave corrections does not lead to fundamental improvement. Quantum corrections to the tilting angle of the ordered moments are also calculated. They may have both signs, contrary to the always negative first order quantum corrections to the magnetization. Finally we investigate the effect of the interlayer coupling and find that the quasi-2D picture remains valid up to |J_\perp/J1| ~ 0.3.

description: Demonstrating quantum advantage with less powerful but more realistic devices is of great importance in modern quantum information science. Recently, a significant quantum speedup was achieved in the problem of learning a hidden parity function with noise. However, if all data qubits at the query output are completely depolarized, the algorithm fails. In this work, we present a quantum parity learning algorithm that exhibits quantum advantage as long as one qubit is provided with nonzero polarization in each query. In this scenario, the quantum parity learning naturally becomes deterministic quantum computation with one qubit. Then the hidden parity function can be revealed by performing a set of operations that can be interpreted as measuring nonlocal observables on the auxiliary result qubit having nonzero polarization and each data qubit. We also discuss the source of the quantum advantage in our algorithm from the resource-theoretic point of view.

description: The global distribution of language diversity mirrors that of several variables related to ecosystem productivity. It has been argued that this is driven by the size of social networks, which tend to be larger in harsher climates to ensure food security, leading to reduced language divergence. Is this pattern purely synchronic, or is there also a quantifiable relationship between environmental conditions and language diversification over time? We used a spatio-temporal phylogeny of the Bantu language family to estimate local diversification rates at the times and locations of language divergence. We compared these data against spatially-explicit reconstructions of several palaeoclimate and palaeovegetation variables (mean annual temperature and the temperature of the coldest and warmest quarter, annual precipitation and the precipitation of the wettest and driest quarter, growing degree days, the length of the growing season, and net primary production), to investigate a potential link between local environmental factors and diversification rates in the Bantu languages. A regression analysis does not suggest a statistically significant relationship between climatic or ecological variables and linguistic diversification over time. We find a strong positive correlation between pairwise linguistic and geographic distances in the Bantu languages, arguing for a dominant role of isolation as a result of the rapid Bantu expansion that might have overwhelmed any potential influence of local environmental factors.

description: We construct nonparametric confidence sets for regression functions using wavelets. We consider both thresholding and modulation estimators for the wavelet coefficients. The confidence set is obtained by showing that a pivot process, constructed from the loss function, converges uniformly to a mean zero Gaussian process. Inverting this pivot yields a confidence set for the wavelet coefficients and from this we obtain confidence sets on functional of the regression curve.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi produce chitooligosaccharides (COs) and lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs), that promote symbiosis signalling with resultant oscillations in nuclear-associated calcium. The activation of symbiosis signalling must be balanced with activation of immunity signalling, which in fungal interactions is promoted by COs resulting from the chitinaceous fungal cell wall. Here we demonstrate that COs ranging from CO4-CO8 can induce symbiosis signalling in Medicago truncatula. CO perception is a function of the receptor-like kinases MtCERK1 and LYR4, that activate both immunity and symbiosis signalling. A combination of LCOs and COs act synergistically to enhance symbiosis signalling and suppress immunity signalling and receptors involved in both CO and LCO perception are necessary for mycorrhizal establishment. We conclude that LCOs, when present in a mix with COs, drive a symbiotic outcome and this mix of signals is essential for arbuscular mycorrhizal establishment.

description: Low-frequency rotating spokes are obtained in a cross-field discharge plasma using two-dimensional numerical simulations. A particle-fluid hybrid model is used to model the plasma flow in a configuration similar to a Hall thruster. It has been reported that the drift-diffusion approximation for an electron fluid results in an ill-conditioned matrix when solving for the potential because of the differences in the electron mobilities across the magnetic field and in the direction of the E$\times$B drift. In this paper, we employ a hyperbolic approach that enables stable calculation, namely, better iterative convergence of the electron fluid model. Our simulation results show a coherent rotating structure propagating in the E$\times$B direction with a phase velocity of 2,500 m/s, which agrees with experimental data. The phase velocity obtained from the numerical simulations shows good agreement with that predicted by the dispersion relation of the gradient drift instability.

description: The Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (COM-Poisson) is a generalization of the Poisson distribution which can model both under-dispersed and over-dispersed data. However, the distribution, moments, and MLE cannot be computed in closed form. This paper describes computational schemes and handy approximations for the COM-Poisson.

description: Emerging in December 2019 and becoming an international public health emergency as of mid-March 2020, the coronavirus pandemic has swept the world. The rise of COVID-19 has altered social interactions while also substantially transforming how organizations operate. Universities have been one of the most widely affected institutions. Since the imposition of worldwide quarantine measures, they have had to adapt to new administrative practices quickly. As such, this paper addresses the effects COVID-19 has had on university operations in the developed world. Specifically, this paper examines what the long-term effect of COVID-19 will be on university organization and governance. This research analyzes six areas of interest. The first section focuses on the effects the coronavirus has had on university pedagogical activities. We illustrate the hybridization of the teaching process as a result of the transition to online learning. Next, we discuss the adjustments university researchers have made to continue their work within a pandemic world. We emphasize how research collaborations and data collection will have to change post-epidemic. The third section serves to highlight the difficulties students, as well as university professionals, are facing. Here, the paper underlines how universities are dealing with issues concerning stress and mental health. The following section considers international students’ economic saliency, elaborating on how universities will need to adjust to maintain their financial stability while remaining academically appealing to overseas students. The fifth section concentrates on the changes made by universities regarding administrative and operative functions. Finally, we analyze the work of universities surrounding the implementation of an emergency preparedness plan, principally looking at the steps these academic institutions are taking to minimize any future health crisis’s detrimental effects.
Proposal to look for the anomalous isotopic symmetry breaking in central diffractive production of the $f_1(1285)$ and $a^0_0(980)$ resonances at the LHC

description: At very high energies, and in the central region ($x_F\simeq0$), the double-Pomeron exchange mechanism gives the dominant contribution to the production of hadrons with the positive $C$ parity and isospin $I=0$. Therefore, the observation of resonances in the states with $I=1$ will be indicative of their production or decay with the isotopic symmetry breaking. Here, we bear in mind the cases of the anomalous breaking of the isotopic symmetry, i.e., when the cross section of the process breaking the isospin is not of the order of $10^{-4}$ of the cross section of the allowed process but of the order of $1\%$. The paper draws attention to the reactions $pp\to p(f_1(1285)/f_1(1420))p\to p(π^+π^-π^0)p$ and $pp\to p(K\bar K)p\to p(a^0_0(980))p\to p(ηπ^0)p$ in which a similar situation can be realized, owing to the $K\bar K$ loop mechanisms of the breaking of isotopic symmetry. We note that there is no visible background in the $π^+π^-π^0$ and $ηπ^0$ channels. Observation of the process $pp\to p(f_1(1285))p\to p(π^+π^-π^0)p$ would be a confirmation of the first results from the VES and BESIII detectors, indicating the very large isospin breaking in the decay $f_1(1285))\toπ^+π^-π^0$.

Computing Maximum Likelihood Estimates in Log-Linear Models

description: We develop computational strategies for extended maximum likelihood estimation, as defined in Rinaldo (2006), for general classes of log-linear models of widespread use, under Poisson and product-multinomial sampling schemes. We derive numerically efficient procedures for generating and manipulating design matrices and we propose various algorithms for computing the extended maximum likelihood estimates of the expectations of the cell counts. These algorithms allow to identify the set of estimable cell means for any given observable table and can be used for modifying traditional goodness-of-fit tests to accommodate for a nonexistent MLE. We describe and take advantage of the connections between extended maximum likelihood estimation in hierarchical log-linear models and graphical models.

description: Within the context of mass-varying neutrinos, we construct a cosmological model that has a phase transition in the electromagnetic fine structure constant αat a redshift of 0.5. The model accommodates hints of a time variable αin quasar spectra and the nonobservance of such an effect at very low redshifts. It is consistent with limits from the recombination and primordial nucleosynthesis eras and is free of instabilities.

Les organisations internationales face au défi de la lutte contre la pauvreté en Afrique Subsaharienne : Les Documents de Stratégie pour la Réduction de la Pauvreté (DSRP)
Creators: name: Ateba Awona, Alberte De Manuella
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2021

description: La lutte contre la pauvreté occupe une place de plus en plus importante tant au sein des pays qu’au niveau de la communauté internationale. Les Organisations Internationales (OI), depuis de nombreuses décennies tendent la main aux pays afin d’éradiquer la pauvreté sous toutes ses formes dans le monde. Malgré cela, l’Afrique Subsaharienne (ASS) a le malheureux privilège d’être la région du monde la plus touchée par l’extrême pauvreté, et les tendances de ses principaux indicateurs de développement, ne semblent aller en faveur d’une résolution de cette situation. Cela nous a amené à nous interroger sur les raisons qui pourraient expliquer la situation de pauvreté observée en ASS malgré toutes les actions entreprises depuis les années 50par les OI. Dans ce mémoire, nous analysons successivement : le contexte du développement en ASS à l’aide d’indicateurs économiques et sociaux ; les contours de la lutte contre la pauvreté par les organisations internationales avec un accent particulier sur l’approche du Document de Stratégie pour la Réduction de la Pauvreté (DSRP) ; et nous effectuons une étude quantitative mesurant l’impact des stratégies de réduction de la pauvreté sur les conditions de vie autodéclarées par les personnes vivant en ASS (de 2002 à 2018). Nous entendons apporter une contribution originale à la littérature sur ce sujet en implémentant une approche différente dans notre étude quantitative. En effet, nous nous servons des données directement collectées auprès des individus (micro-données), et notre variable dépendante est matérialisée par « les conditions de vie autodéclarées par les individus », et non par des mesures de pauvreté établies au niveau des OI. De plus, nous avons trouvé une manière de considérer jusqu’à 7 indicateurs « objectifs » pouvant permettre de mesurerla pauvreté multidimensionnelle. Par conséquent, nous n’appréhendons pas la pauvreté uniquement comme une condition matérielle, mais aussi comme une expérience vécue. Nos résultats montrent que l’implémentation d’une stratégie de réduction de la pauvreté/DSRP en ASS, entraine une faible augmentation de la probabilité de déclarer vivre dans de bonnes conditions. Cependant, un certain nombre d’éléments devraient être considérés s’il faut réellement conclure à un effet positif des DSRP sur la réduction de la pauvreté
Unification of parton and coupled-wire approaches to quantum magnetism in two dimensions

description: The fractionalization of microscopic degrees of freedom is a remarkable manifestation of strong interactions in quantum many-body systems. Analytical studies of this phenomenon are primarily based on two distinct frameworks: field theories of partons and emergent gauge fields, or coupled arrays of one-dimensional quantum wires. We unify these approaches for two-dimensional spin systems. Via exact manipulations, we demonstrate how parton gauge theories arise in microscopic wire arrays and explicitly relate spin operators to emergent quasiparticles and gauge-field monopoles. This correspondence allows us to compute physical correlation functions within both formulations and leads to a straightforward algorithm for constructing parent Hamiltonians for a wide range of exotic phases. We exemplify this technique for several chiral and non-chiral quantum spin liquids.

Computing Consecutive-Type Reliabilities Non-Recursively

Subjects: subject: Probability

description: The reliability of consecutive-type systems has been approached from different angles. We present a new method for deriving the generating functions and reliabilities of various consecutive-type systems. Our method, which is based on Feller's run theory, is easy to implement, and leads to both recursive and non-recursive formulas for the reliability. The non-recursive expression is especially advantageous for systems with numerous components. We show how the method can be extended for computing generating functions and reliabilities of systems with multi-state components as well as systems with statistically dependent components. To make our theoretical derivations practical to practitioners, we include short computer programs that do the non-recursive computations yielding the reliabilities of such systems.
