description: Convolutional neural networks (ConvNets) are a family of machine learning models which have demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in a wide range of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tasks. To obtain accuracy gains, ConvNets have been typically enhanced either by designing deeper and wider models with a larger number of trainable parameters, or by designing novel components that introduce irregular dataflow. Both approaches are computationally expensive and pose challenges with respect to the deployment of ConvNets in real-life applications. ConvNet-enabled applications are also characterised by a variability across performance requirements, spanning from throughput-driven to latency-critical systems. This property calls for a model- and performance-aware design of computing systems in order to meet the diverse application-level specifications. Furthermore, in emerging complex AI systems, such as autonomous vehicles, ConvNets constitute mere building blocks of the overall system leading to multi-ConvNet settings. Upon deployment, the different models have to run concurrently, meet their respective performance constraints and share the underlying resources. This thesis proposes design methodologies and hardware architectures targeting field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) that address the aforementioned challenges, aiming for the high-performance deployment of ConvNets. The contributions of this work include: an analytical model for representing both ConvNet workloads and hardware mappings, together with a ConvNet-to-FPGA toolflow for the automated generation of ConvNet accelerators; a latency-driven methodology for the generation of latency-optimised hardware mappings which meet the stringent response-time constraints of modern ConvNet applications; novel architectural optimisations for state-of-the-art ConvNets with irregular connectivity, together with the corresponding mapping methodology; and a toolflow for the parallel deployment of multiple ConvNets on a single FPGA, enabling emerging multi-ConvNet applications. By applying the above methodologies to real-life workloads, it is shown that significant performance gains are achieved over existing state-of-the-art implementations on FPGAs and GPUs, enabling in this way the automated generation of ConvNet accelerators that are tailored to both the ConvNet-FPGA pair and the target performance requirements in single- and multi-ConvNet settings.

description: Organizations rely on phishing interventions to enhance employees' vigilance and safe responses to phishing emails that bypass technical solutions. While various resources are available to counteract phishing, studies emphasize the need for interactive and practical training approaches. To investigate the effectiveness of such an approach, we developed and delivered two anti-phishing trainings, group discussion and role-playing, at a European university. We conducted a pre-registered experiment (N = 105), incorporating repeated measures at three time points, a control group, and three in-situ phishing tests. Both trainings enhanced employees' anti-phishing self-efficacy and support-seeking intention in within-group analyses. Only the role-playing training significantly improved support-seeking intention when compared to the control group. Participants in both trainings reported more phishing tests and demonstrated heightened vigilance to phishing attacks compared to the control group. We discuss practical implications for evaluating and improving phishing interventions and promoting safe responses to phishing threats within organizations.

description: We introduce a new entanglement measure based on optimal entanglement witness. First of all, we show that the entanglement measure satisfies some necessary properties, including zero entanglements for all separable states, convexity, continuity, invariance under local unitary operations and non-increase under local operations and classical communication(LOCC). More than that, we give a specific mathematical expression for the lower bound of this entanglement measure for any bipartite mixed states. We further improve the lower bound for 2$ \otimes $2 systems. Finally, we numerically simulate the lower bound of several types of specific quantum states.

Systematic reduction of chemical mechanisms via rate-controlled constrained equilibrium
Creators: name: Koniavitis, Panagiotis
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: The development of reduced chemical mechanisms in a systematic way has emerged as a potential solution to the problem of incorporating the increasingly large chemical mechanisms into turbulent combustion CFD codes. In this work, Rate-Controlled Constrained Equilibrium (RCCE) is linked with different systematic methods for identifying the major species in different detailed mechanisms. As a result, a methodology is proposed for developing reduced mechanisms with RCCE via a Computational Singular Perturbation (CSP) analysis of counterflow non-premixed flamelets for different scalar dissipation rates, by integrating over mixture fraction space a modified CSP pointer and weighting the local ordering for each strain rate. RCCE simulations with the derived reduced mechanisms for methane with 16 species and for propane with 27 species are compared with the integration of the detailed mechanisms GRI 1.2 and USC-Mech-II respectively. The last, and most complex, problem under investigation is a detailed mechanism for a realistic surrogate fuel for kerosene, for which two reduced mechanisms are developed via the RCCE-CSP methodology with 17 and 42 species. The applicability of the methodology is demonstrated in non-premixed flames for several strain rates, in non-premixed flames ignited with a pilot to test the dynamic behaviour, in premixed flames for different equivalence ratios and subsequently in perfectly stirred reactors for ignition delay times for varying temperature, pressure and equivalence ratio. An additional combustion regime, studied here, is a laminar non-premixed flamelet, with time-dependent strain rate at high pressure, to test the dynamic behaviour of the reduced mechanisms compared to the full model. Overall very good agreement is obtained, indicating that the methodology can produce reliable mechanisms for different fuels and for a wide range of conditions, combining a remarkable degree of reduction in computational time.

description: We classify orbits of stars that are bound to central black holes in galactic nuclei. The stars move under the combined gravitational influences of the black hole and the central star cluster. Within the sphere of influence of the black hole, the orbital periods of the stars are much shorter than the periods of precession. We average over the orbital motion and end up with a simpler problem and an extra integral of motion: the product of the black hole mass and the semimajor axis of the orbit. Thus the black hole enforces some degree of regularity in its neighborhood. Well within the sphere of influence, (i) planar, as well as three dimensional, axisymmetric configurations-both of which could be lopsided-are integrable, (ii) fully three dimensional clusters with no spatial symmetry whatsover must have semi-regular dynamics with two integrals of motion. Similar considerations apply to stellar orbits when the black hole grows adiabatically. We introduce a family of planar, non-axisymmetric potential perturbations, and study the orbital structure for the harmonic case in some detail. In the centered potentials there are essentially two main families of orbits: the familiar loops and lenses, which were discussed in Sridhar and Touma (1997, MNRAS, 287, L1-L4). We study the effect of lopsidedness, and identify a family of loop orbits, whose orientation reinforces the lopsidedness, an encouraging sign for the construction of self-consistent models of eccentric, discs around black holes, such as in M31 and NGC 4486B.

description: Let $X \subset Y$ be closed (possibly singular) subschemes of a smooth projective toric variety $T$. We show how to compute the Segre class $s(X,Y)$ as a class in the Chow group of $T$. Building on this, we give effective methods to compute intersection products in projective varieties, to determine algebraic multiplicity without working in local rings, and to test pairwise containment of subvarieties of $T$. Our methods may be implemented without using Groebner bases; in particular any algorithm to compute the number of solutions of a zero-dimensional polynomial system may be used.
Spectral evolution of magnetic flares and time lags in accreting black hole sources

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998

description: We present a model for the short timescale spectral variability of accreting black holes. It describes well the time-averaged spectra as well as temporal characteristics such as power-density spectrum, time/phase lags, and coherence function of Cygnus X-1. We assume that X/gamma-rays are produced in compact magnetic flares at radii < 100GM/c^2 from the central black hole. The tendency for magnetic loops to inflate and detach from the underlying accretion disc causes the spectrum of a flare to evolve from soft to hard due to the decrease of the feedback from the cold disc, so causing time delays between hard and soft photons. We identify the observed time lags with the evolution timescales of the flares, which are of the order of the Keplerian timescale. We model the overall temporal variability using a pulse avalanche model in which each flare has a certain probability to trigger a neighbouring flare, thus occasionally producing long avalanches. The duration of the avalanches determines the Fourier frequencies where most of the power emerges.

description: The evolution of collapsing metal free protostellar clouds is investigated for various masses and initial conditions. We perform hydrodynamical calculations for spherically symmetric clouds taking account of radiative transfer of the molecular hydrogen lines and the continuum, as well as of chemistry of the molecular hydrogen. The collapse is found to proceed almost self-similarly like Larson-Penston similarity solution. In the course of the collapse, efficient three-body processes transform atomic hydrogen in an inner region of $\sim 1 M_{\sun}$ entirely into molecular form. However, hydrogen in the outer part remains totally atomic although there is an intervening transitional layer of several solar masses, where hydrogen is in partially molecular form. No opaque transient core is formed although clouds become optically thick to H$_{2}$ collision-induced absorption continuum, since H$_{2}$ dissociation follows successively. When the central part of the cloud reaches stellar densities ($\sim 10^{-2} {\rm g cm^{-3}}$), a very small hydrostatic core ($\sim 5 \times 10^{-3} M_{\sun}$) is formed and subsequently grows in mass as the ambient gas accretes onto it. The mass accretion rate is estimated to be $3.7 \times 10^{-2} M_{\sun} {\rm yr^{-1}} (M_{\ast}/M_{\sun})^{-0.37}$, where $M_{\ast}$ is instantaneous mass of the central core, by using a similarity solution which reproduces the evolution of the cloud before the core formation.

Reactivity of biomass relevant esters and alcohols in acidic ionic liquids
Creators: name: Ismail, Nur Liyana Binti
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Reactivity of biomass relevant alcohols and esters in hydrogen sulfate based ionic liquids were successfully studied. A series of alcohols; methanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, isopropanol, and phenol were reacted with 1-butylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate [HC4im][HSO4] to represent cellulose hydroxyl group reactivity in the selected acidic ionic liquids. Apart from phenol, all selected alcohols were found to undergo sulfation via nucleophilic substitution by [HSO4]− anion after 24 h. Mechanistic study of the nucleophilic substitution reactions of p-substituted benzyl alcohols with [HC4im][HSO4] and [C4C1im][HSO4] were done using Hammett equation. The concave upward Hammett plots suggest there is a change in mechanism, from SN1 for electron donating substituents (OMe and Me) to SN2 for electron withdrawing substituents (H, Cl, CF3 and NO2). This chapter revealed that ILs can act as a solvent as well as a nucleophile in one reaction. Most importantly, this showed that sulfation of cellulose is probable under Ionosolv pretreatment. Hydrolysis of lignin-carbohydrate linkage model compounds, BHB and THFF were carried out in [HC4im][HSO4] with varying acid and water content. The rates of hydrolysis were increasing with increasing of mol% acid. The mechanistic insights of the reactions were studied using Zucker-Hammett, Bunnett-Olsen and Eyring equations. All three resulted plots are in agreement with A2 mechanism. Transesterification reactions of BHB and ethyl lactate and methanol in [HC4im][HSO4] were found to give low yields due to the sulfation of methanol. This again showed that the [HSO4]¯anion are reactive and nucleophilic enough to undergo nucleophilic substitution reaction with alcohol at 80 – 120 °C in aqueous or non-aqueous condition.
Optical identifications and spectroscopy of a faint radio source sample: the nature of the sub-mJy population

description: Deep imaging and spectroscopy have been carried out for optical counterparts of a sample of 68 faint radio sources (S > 0.2 mJy) in the ``Marano Field''. About 60% of the sources have been optically identified on deep CCD exposures (limit R ~ 24.0) or ESO 3.6-m plates (limit bJ ~ 22.5). Thirty-four spectra (50% of the total radio sample) were obtained with the ESO 3.6-m telescope and 30 redshifts were determined. In addition to a few broad line active galactic nuclei, three main spectroscopic classes have been found to dominate the faint radio galaxy population: (1) Early-type galaxies with 0.1 < z < 0.8. (2) Late-type galaxies at moderate redshift (z < 0.4), with relatively bright magnitudes (B < 22.5) and sub-mJy radio fluxes. (3) A group of bright high-redshift (z > 0.8) radio galaxies with moderate-to-strong [OII] emission. They have spectra, colours and absolute magnitudes similar to those of the classical bright elliptical radio galaxies found in surveys carried out at higher radio fluxes. Star-forming galaxies do not constitute the main population of our radio sources identified with galaxies. In fact, even at sub-mJy level the majority of our radio sources are identified with early-type galaxies. This apparent discrepancy with previous results is due to the fainter magnitude limit reached in our spectroscopic identifications. Moreover, using mainly the large radio-to-optical ratio and the information from the available limits on the optical magnitudes of the unidentified radio sources, we conclude that the great majority of them are likely to be early-type galaxies, at z > 1. If correct, it would suggest that the evolution of the radio luminosity function of spiral galaxies, including starbursts, might not be as strong as suggested in previous evolutionary models.

description: A universal property of resonant subwavelength scatterers is that their optical cross-sections are proportional to a square wavelength, $λ^2$, regardless of whether they are plasmonic nanoparticles, two-level quantum systems, or RF antennas. The maximum cross-section is an intrinsic property of the \emph{incident field}: plane waves, with infinite power, can be decomposed into multipolar orders with finite powers proportional to $λ^2$. In this Article, we identify $λ^2/c$ and $λ^3/c$ as analogous force and torque constants, derived within a more general quadratic scattering-channel framework for upper bounds to optical force and torque for any illumination field. This framework also solves the reverse problem: computing globally optimal "holographic" incident beams, for a fixed collection of scatterers. We analyze structures and incident fields that approach the bounds, which for wavelength-scale bodies show a rich interplay between scattering channels, and we show that spherically symmetric structures are forbidden from reaching the plane-wave force/torque bounds. This framework should enable optimal mechanical control of nanoparticles with light.

description: Neural networks are known to be a class of highly expressive functions able to fit even random input-output mappings with $100\%$ accuracy. In this work, we present properties of neural networks that complement this aspect of expressivity. By using tools from Fourier analysis, we show that deep ReLU networks are biased towards low frequency functions, meaning that they cannot have local fluctuations without affecting their global behavior. Intuitively, this property is in line with the observation that over-parameterized networks find simple patterns that generalize across data samples. We also investigate how the shape of the data manifold affects expressivity by showing evidence that learning high frequencies gets \emph{easier} with increasing manifold complexity, and present a theoretical understanding of this behavior. Finally, we study the robustness of the frequency components with respect to parameter perturbation, to develop the intuition that the parameters must be finely tuned to express high frequency functions.

description: G359.87+0.18 is an enigmatic object located 15' from Sgr A*. It has been variously classified as an extragalactic source, Galactic jet source, and young supernova remnant. We present new observations of G359.87+0.18 between 0.33 and 15 GHz and use these to argue that this source is an Faranoff-Riley II radio galaxy. We are able to place a crude limit on its redshift of z > 0.1. The source has a spectral index α< -1 (S \propto ν^α), suggestive of a radio galaxy with a redshift z >~ 2. The scattering diameters of Sgr A* and several nearby OH masers (~ 1" at 1 GHz) indicate that a region of enhanced scattering is along the line of sight to the Galactic center. If the region covers the Galactic center uniformly, the implied diameter for a background source is at least 600" at 0.33 GHz, in contrast with the observed 20" diameter of G359.87+0.18. Using the scattering diameter of a nearby OH maser OH 359.762+0.120 and the widths of two, nearby, non-thermal threads, G0.08+0.15 and G359.79+0.17, we show that a uniform scattering region should cover G359.87+0.18. We therefore conclude that the Galactic center scattering region is inhomogeneous on a scale of 5' (~ 10 pc at a distance of 8.5 kpc). This scale is comparable to the size scale of molecular clouds in the Galactic center. The close agreement between these two lengths scales is an indication that the scattering region is linked intimately to the Galactic center molecular clouds.

description: The BN/KL region in the Orion molecular cloud is an archetype in the study of the formation of stars much more massive than the Sun. This region contains luminous young stars and protostars, but it is difficult to study because of overlying dust and gas. Our basic expectations are shaped to some extent by the present theoretical picture of star formation, the cornerstone of which is that protostars acrete gas from rotating equatorial disks, and shed angular momentum by ejecting gas in bipolar outflows. The main source of the outflow in the BN/KL region may be an object known as radio source I, which is commonly believed to be surrounded by a rotating disk of molecular material. Here we report high-resolution observations of silicon monoxide (SiO) and water maser emission from the gas surrounding source I; we show that within 60 AU (about the size of the Solar System), the region is dominated by a conical bipolar outflow, rather than the expected disk. A slower outflow, close to the equatorial plane of the protostellar system, extends to radii of 1,000 AU.

description: We discuss Hubble Space Telescope optical images and spectra of NGC 6251, a giant E2 galaxy and powerful radio source at a distance of 106 Mpc (for H_0 = 70 km/s/Mpc). The galaxy is known to host a very well defined dust disk (O'Neil et al. 1994); the exceptional resolution of our V and I images allows a detailed study of the disk structure. Furthermore, narrow band images centered on the Halpha+[NII] emission lines, reveal the presence of ionized gas in the inner 0.3 arcsec of the disk. We used the HST/Faint Object Spectrograph with the 0.09 arcsec aperture to study the velocity structure of the disk. Dynamical models were constructed for two extreme (in terms of central concentration) analytical representations of the stellar surface brightness profile, from which the mass density and corresponding rotational velocity are derived assuming a constant mass-to-light ratio (M/L)_V ~ 8.5 M_solar/L_solar. For both representations of the stellar component, the models show that the gas is in Keplerian motion around a central mass ~ 4 - 8 X 10^8 solar masses, and that the contribution of radial flows to the velocity field is negligible.

description: We present a correlation function analysis for the catalogue of photometric redshifts obtained from the Hubble Deep Field image by Fernandez-Soto et al., 1998. By dividing the catalogue into redshift bins of width $Δz=0.4$ we measured the angular correlation function $w(θ)$ as a function of redshift up to $z\sim 4.8$. From these measurements we derive the trend of the correlation length $r_0$. We find that $r_0(z)$ is roughly constant with look-back time up to $z \simeq 2$, and then increases to higher values at $z\simgt 2.4$. We estimate the values of $r_0$, assuming $ξ(r,z)=(r/r_0(z))^{-γ}$, $γ=1.8$ and different geometries. For $Ω_0=1$ we find $r_0(z=3)\simeq 7.00\pm 4.87 h^{-1}$ Mpc, in good agreement with the values obtained from analysis of the Lyman Break Galaxies.

Aluminum Abundances on the Red Giant Branch: Testing Helium Mixing as a Second Parameter

description: We present new data and discuss the relationship between the Al abundances on the red giant branches (RGBs) and the horizontal-branch (HB) morphologies of the second-parameter pair of globular clusters M3 and M13. Since Al is produced during RGB evolution inside the H-burning shell where He is synthesized, its overabundance in stellar atmospheres can indicate He mixing, which has been shown to be a viable second parameter in explaining HB morpohogies.

Designing circular possessions: exploring human-object relationships in the circular economy
Creators: name: Baxter, Weston L
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: This thesis argues the need for a fundamental shift from the design of products to the design of possessions in the circular economy. Possessions in the circular economy are characterised by interactions resulting in a user-object relationship rather than legalese and differ from the linear economy in terms of their length of use and number of users. Individual users are thus seen as critical actors to enable material circulation in that they take possession and dispossess of products. Two key topics—psychological ownership and contaminated interaction—are explored in detail to fill theoretical gaps in design research and practice. After discussing these topics, some directions and guidelines are suggested. Possession or ownership is taken as an innate human desire. A framework describes the method of developing ownership including the motives, routes, and paths that guide the development of that relationship. This framework is used to describe object attachment to inform product longevity and decisions around keeping and discarding. It is also useful to help explain why some access-based models are adopted while others are not. Maintaining perceived value in the circular economy entails mitigating contaminated interaction—tainted interaction due to prior use and prior users. Contaminated interaction is shown to affect new circular business opportunities, disposal decisions and downcycling. A typology is presented to characterise indicators of use with an emphasis on sensorial material properties. Aversion to used products is found to come from three drivers: hygiene, utility and territory. A theoretical framework for contaminated interaction is presented which is explored through positive and negative forms of contamination. Finally, a case study shows how alterations in product characteristics lead to improper disposal and act as an example of what it means to design of circular possessions.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. 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.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

Blast-mediated traumatic amputation: underlying mechanisms and associated injuries
Creators: name: Singleton, James
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) came to prominence in Iraq and became the primary weapon used by insurgent forces in Afghanistan against coalition troops and vehicles in the late 20th and early 21st century. IEDs caused over 50% of all UK combat fatalities in these conflicts, many of whom suffered extremity traumatic amputations (TAs). To date, understanding of the mechanism of blast-mediated TA has been based on limited anatomical and minimal radiological injury data. Blast-mediated TAs were first thought to be solely attributable to limb flail caused by a blast wind of sufficient velocity to bring about extremity avulsion. This injury mechanism theory was significantly modified in 1996 following UK military medical research: the shockwave – ‘primary blast injury’ – was thought to be pivotal in the creation of blast-mediated TAs, coupling directly into the limb and causing a long bone fracture prior to gross limb movement, with the blast wind – ‘tertiary blast injury’ - subsequently displacing the limb causing amputation through the aforementioned fracture. A strong link was believed to exist between TA and exposure to lethal levels of primary blast loading. Guillotine-type TAs were also seen due to large fragments energised by the blast (secondary blast injury). Modern battlefield blast casualty (survivors and fatalities) analysis, combined with incident data analysis of each blast event, has not shown the previously asserted link between TA and primary blast lung injury. Furthermore, the high proportion of through joint TAs (22.4% in fatalities vs. 1.3% reported previously), determined by postmortem CT imaging, has indicated pure flail as a valid injury mechanism. These injuries thus appear to have multiple blast injury mechanisms - primary and tertiary, secondary, and (previously unappreciated) pure tertiary – and a greater understanding of these injury modalities has significant implications for mitigation and prevention strategies.

description: The primordial abundances of Deuterium, he4, and li7 are crucial to determination of the baryon density of the Universe in the framework of standard Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN). li6 which is only produced in tiny quantities and it is generally not considered to be a cosmological probe. However, recent major observational advances have produced an estimate of the li6/li7 ratio in a few very old stars in the galactic halo which impacts the question whether or not the lithium isotopes are depleted in the outer layers of halo stars, through proton induced reactions at the base of (or below) the convective zone. li6 is a pure product of spallation through the major production reactions, fast oxygen and alphas interacting on interstellar H, He (especially in the early Galaxy). The rapid nuclei are both synthesized and accelerated by SN II. In this context, the \li6 evolution should go in step with that of beryllium and boron, recently observed by the Keck and HST telescopes. Li6 adds a new constraint on the early spallation in the Galaxy. In particular, if confirmed, the Li6/Be9 ratio observed in two halo stars (HD 84937, BD +263578) gives strong boundary conditions on the composition and the spectrum of the rapid particles involved. We show that Li6 is essentially intact in halo stars, and a fortiori \li7. We can define a range of the Li6 abundance in the very early Galaxy consistent with Big Bang nucleosynthesis (5.6 10(-14) to 3. 10(-13) . Following the evolution at increasing metallicity, we explain the abundance in the solar system within a factor of about 2.
