title: Reproducing Life After Conflict: Population, Prosperity, and Potent Landscapes in Timor-Leste
Creators: name: Burke, Laura
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: his thesis explores how life is reproduced after conflict. It examines debates and contrasting approaches to reproduction, and how they interact. Based on 18 months of ethnographic fieldwork in the central mountain town of Maubisse, I explore how the state, health workers, Catholic Church, NGOs and local communities approach reproduction in the aftermath of the Indonesian occupation. In Timor-Leste reproduction is seen by the state and international organisations as a tool for national development. At the same time, reproduction is understood locally in Maubisse as a process which is distributed through social networks and across the spiritual landscape. Using a reproductive justice framework, I conceptualised these two differing but interlinked approaches as ‘reproductive developmentality’, and ‘distributed reproduction’. Through reproductive developmentality, reproduction is conceptualised as a biological life process that can be managed for development. Whereas ‘distributed reproduction’ acknowledges the ways reproduction is shaped by wider structural forces, such as conflict and colonialism, and acknowledges the desire to replenish the population and rejuvenate communities. These two approaches to reproduction after conflict collide causing frictions. However, they also merge in new and interesting ways as both approaches pursue different paths to prosperity. Engaging with feminist debates about reproduction, population, and environment I argue that the abundance of life, human and nonhuman are significant to communities in the post-conflict context.

description: We propose a variational approach to study renormalized phonons in momentum conserving nonlinear lattices with either symmetric or asymmetric potentials. To investigate the influence of pressure to phonon properties, we derive an inequality which provides both the lower and upper bound of the Gibbs free energy as the associated variational principle. This inequality is a direct extension to the Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality. Taking the symmetry effect into account, the reference system for the variational approach is chosen to be harmonic with an asymmetric quadratic potential which contains variational parameters. We demonstrate the power of this approach by applying it to one dimensional nonlinear lattices with a symmetric or asymmetric Fermi-Pasta- Ulam type potential. For a system with a symmetric potential and zero pressure, we recover existing results. For other systems which beyond the scope of existing theories, including those having the symmetric potential and pressure, and those having the asymmetric potential with or without pressure, we also obtain accurate sound velocity.

description: The purpose of this study was to identify college women's current knowledge, perceptions of access and use of emergency contraception (EC), as well as to determine what, if any, relationships exist between these factors and the sources of information from which these women have heard of EC. A self-report survey was administered to 339 college women to assess these characteristics. Our study observed positive relationships between EC information sources and accurate EC knowledge, intentions to use EC and perceptions of EC access. Moreover, EC knowledge was found to mediate the relationship between EC information sources and 1) intentions to use EC and 2) perceptions of EC access. Implications for future EC awareness efforts suggest utilizing identifiably credible information sources to positively influence EC knowledge, intentions of use and perceptions of access. Future research should examine the specific EC information sources and the content, quality, and frequency of their EC messages.

description: The CMU Statistical Language Modeling toolkit was released in 1994 in order to facilitate the construction and testing of bigram and trigram language models. It is currently in use in over 40 academic, government and industrial laboratories in over 12 countries. This paper presents a new version of the toolkit. We outline the conventional language modeling technology, as implemented in the toolkit, and describe the extra e ciency and functionality that the new toolkit provides as compared to previous software for this task. Finally, we give an example of the use of the toolkit in constructing and testing a simple language model.

description: We present findings of the detection of Magnesium II (Mg II, λ = 2796, 2803 Å) absorbers from the early data release of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). DESI is projected to obtain spectroscopy of approximately 3 million quasars (QSOs), of which over 99% are anticipated to be at redshifts greater than z > 0.3, such that DESI would be able to observe an associated or intervening Mg II absorber illuminated by the background QSO. We have developed an autonomous supplementary spectral pipeline that detects these systems through an initial line-fitting process and then confirms the line properties using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampler. Based upon a visual inspection of the resulting systems, we estimate that this sample has a purity greater than 99%. We have also investigated the completeness of our sample in regard to both the signal-to-noise properties of the input spectra and the rest-frame equivalent width (W0) of the absorber systems. From a parent catalog containing 83,207 quasars, we detect a total of 23,921 Mg II absorption systems following a series of quality cuts. Extrapolating from this occurrence rate of 28.8% implies a catalog at the completion of the five-year DESI survey that will contain over eight hundred thousand Mg II absorbers. The cataloging of these systems will enable significant further research because they carry information regarding circumgalactic medium environments, the distribution of intervening galaxies, and the growth of metallicity across the redshift range 0.3 < z < 2.5.

description: By introducing some special bi-orthogonal polynomials, we derive the so-called discrete hungry quotient-difference (dhQD) algorithm and a system related to the QD-type discrete hungry Lotka-Volterra (QD-type dhLV) system, together with their Lax pairs. These two known equations can be regarded as extensions of the QD algorithm. When this idea is applied to a higher analogue of the discrete-time Toda (HADT) equation and the quotient-quotient-difference (QQD) scheme proposed by Spicer, Nijhoff and van der Kamp, two extended systems are constructed. We call these systems the hungry forms of the higher analogue discrete-time Toda (hHADT) equation and the quotient-quotient-difference (hQQD) scheme, respectively. In addition, the corresponding Lax pairs are provided.

Adaptive Electoral Manipulation in Hybrid Regimes: A Multi-Level Analysis of Vote-Buying and Ballot-Rigging in the 2011 Russian Election
Creators: name: Harvey, Cole J.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2013

description: Elections have become a commonplace feature of authoritarian regimes, yet the dynamics of such elections remain murky. Do authoritarian governments employ different strategies under different conditions to manipulate elections? This article considers the conditions under which electoral authoritarian regimes employ two such strategies, vote-buying and ballot-rigging. I propose new measures of vote-buying and ballot-rigging, and examine the correlates of each strategy using a multilevel analysis of data from the 2011 election in Russia's regions. I conclude that authoritarian regimes adapt to varying political conditions, and employ ballot-rigging strategies in places where the regime has a high degree of control over the political system. Vote-buying, by contrast, occurs when political competition is more elevated. These findings help resolve a debate over the relationship between political competitiveness and electoral fraud, in addition to helping illuminate how authoritarian regimes can ensure their survival even while allowing open competition.

description: We present an algorithm, called BioLab, for verifying temporal properties of rule-based models of cellular signalling networks.
BioLab models are encoded in the BioNetGen language, and properties are expressed as formulae in probabilistic bounded linear temporal logic. Temporal logic is a formalism for representing and reasoning about propositions qualified in terms of time. Properties are then verified using sequential hypothesis testing on executions generated using stochastic simulation. BioLab is optimal, in the sense that it generates the minimum number of executions necessary to verify the given property. BioLab also provides guarantees on the probability of it generating Type-I (i.e., false-positive) and Type-II (i.e., false-negative) errors. Moreover, these error bounds are pre-specified by the user. We demonstrate BioLab by verifying stochastic effects and bistability in the dynamics of the T-cell receptor signaling network.
title: Encapsulated trajectory tracking control for autonomous vehicles
Creators: name: Homolla, Tobias
name: Winner, Hermann
Publisher: name: Springer Nature
Year: 2023

description: The motion control of autonomous vehicles with a modular, service-oriented system architecture poses new challenges, as trajectory-planning and -execution are independent software functions. In this paper, requirements for an encapsulated trajectory tracking control are derived and it’s shown that key differences to conventional vehicles with an integrated system architecture exist, requiring additional attention during controller design. A novel, encapsulated control architecture is presented that incorporates multiple extensions and support functions, fulfilling the derived requirements. It allows the application within the modular architecture without loss of functionality or performance. The controller considers vehicle stability and enables the yaw motion as an independent degree of freedom. The concept is applied and validated within the vehicles of the UNICARagil research project, that feature the previously described system architecture to increase flexibility of application by dynamically interconnecting services based on the current use-case.

description: We discuss the issue of unitarity in particular quantum cosmological models with scalar field. The time variable is recovered, in this context, by using the Schutz's formalism for a radiative fluid. Two cases are considered: a phantom scalar field and an ordinary scalar field. For the first case, it is shown that the evolution is unitary provided a convenient factor ordering and inner product measure are chosen; the same happens for the ordinary scalar field, except for some special cases for which the Hamiltonian is not self-adjoint but admits a self-adjoint extension. In all cases, even for those cases not exhibiting unitary evolution, the formal computation of the expectation value of the scale factor indicates a non-singular bounce. The importance of the unitary evolution in quantum cosmology is briefly discussed.

description: The design space for defining adistributed model transformation engine is a large spectrum of possibilities and opportunities to enhance performances in terms of computation time and memory consumption. Depending on the adopted decisions, the use of a transformation engine can be completely different (e.g., an incremental solution for an often-modified model vs a formally specified engine for reasoning, not performing). Already existing solutions propose engines with different goals based on several approaches including distribution, laziness, incrementality, and correctness. However, comparing the solutions is not trivial, and does not necessarily make sense. That is why we have implemented a new engine, integrating variability, that allows an analysis of its design space. From a language that has formal specifications, we created SparkTE, a parametrizable and distributed transformation engine on top of Spark. In this thesis, we aim at analysing the impact of the choices at different levels: the used programming models for defining expressions; the different semantics used to define the computation of a transformation; and the impact of engineering choices.

description: Protein nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts are among the most accurately measurable
spectroscopic parameters and are closely correlated to protein structure because of their dependence
on the local electronic environment. The precise nature of this correlation remains largely
unknown. Accurate prediction of chemical shifts from existing structures’ atomic co-ordinates will
permit close study of this relationship. This paper presents a novel non-linear regression based approach
to chemical shift prediction from protein structure. The regression model employed combines
quantum, classical and empirical variables and provides statistically significant improved
prediction accuracy over existing chemical shift predictors, across protein backbone atom types.
The results presented here were obtained using the Random Forest regression algorithm on a protein
entry data set derived from the RefDB re-referenced chemical shift database.

description: Yannakakis showed that the matching problem does not have a small symmetric linear program. Rothvoß recently proved that any, not necessarily symmetric, linear program also has exponential size. It is natural to ask whether the matching problem can be expressed compactly in a framework such as semidefinite programming (SDP) that is more powerful than linear programming but still allows efficient optimization. We answer this question negatively for symmetric SDPs: any symmetric SDP for the matching problem has exponential size. We also show that an O(k)-round Lasserre SDP relaxation for the metric traveling salesperson problem yields at least as good an approximation as any symmetric SDP relaxation of size $n^k$. The key technical ingredient underlying both these results is an upper bound on the degree needed to derive polynomial identities that hold over the space of matchings or traveling salesperson tours.

description: We extend to a theory of nonassociative geometric flows a string-inspired model of nonassociative gravity determined by star product and R-flux deformations. The nonassociative Ricci tensor and curvature scalar defined by (non) symmetric metric structures and generalized (non) linear connections are used for defining nonassociative versions of Grigori Perelman F- and W-functionals for Ricci flows and computing associated thermodynamic variables. We develop and apply the anholonomic frame and connection deformation method, AFCDM, which allows us to construct exact and parametric solutions describing nonassociative geometric flow evolution scenarios and modified Ricci soliton configurations with quasi-stationary generic off-diagonal metrics. There are provided explicit examples of solutions modelling geometric and statistical thermodynamic evolution on a temperature-like parameter of modified black hole configurations encoding nonassociative star-product and R-flux deformation data. Further perspectives of the paper are motivated by nonassociative off-diagonal geometric flow extensions of the swampland program, related conjectures and claims on geometric and physical properties of new classes of quasi-stationary Ricci flow and black hole solutions.

description: Because of the segmental specific-heat disparity of the hydrogen bond (O:H-O) and the Coulomb repulsion between oxygen ions, cooling elongates the O:H-O bond at freezing by stretching its containing angle and shortening the H-O bond with an association of larger O:H elongation, which makes ice less dense than water, allowing it to float.

description: The electroproduction of selected $p$- and $sd$-shell hypernuclei was studied within a many-body approach using realistic interactions between the constituent baryons. The cross sections were computed in distorted-wave impulse approximation using two elementary amplitudes for the electroproduction of the $Λ$ hyperon. The structure of the hypernuclei was investigated within the framework of the self-consistent $Λ$-nucleon Tamm-Dancoff approach and its extension known as the $Λ$-nucleon equation of motion phonon method. Use was made of the NNLOsat chiral potential plus the effective Nijmegen-F YN interaction. The method was first implemented on light nuclei for studying the available experimental data and establishing a relation to other approaches. After this proof test, it was adopted for predicting the electroproduction cross section of the hypernuclei $^{40}_{~Λ}$K and $^{48}_{~Λ}$K in view of the E12-15-008 experiment in preparation at JLab. On the ground of these predictions, appreciable effects on the spectra are expected to be induced by the YN interaction.

description: Abstract: "Data sets with many discrete variables and relatively few cases arise in health care, ecommerce, information security, text mining, and many other domains. Learning effective and efficient prediction models from such data sets is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a Tabu Search enhanced Markov Blanket (TS/MB) procedure to learn a graphical Markov Blanket classifier from data. The TS/MB procedure is based on the use of restricted neighborhoods in a general Bayesian Network constrained by the Markov condition, called Markov Blanket Neighborhoods. Computational results from real world data sets drawn from several domains indicate that the TS/MB procedure is able to find a parsimonious model with substantially fewer predictor variables than in the full data set, and provides comparable prediction performance when compared against several machine learning methods."

description: Resilienz ist in aller Munde. Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der Ausfall- und Angriffssicherheit der Landwirtschaft als zentralem Bestandteil der Ernährungswirtschaft im digitalen Zeitalter kritisch auseinander. Dabei geht es nicht um die Frage, ob Smart Farming in der landwirtschaftlichen Praxis sinnvoll ist, sondern ob deren Infrastruktur den Anforderungen einer ausfallsicheren (resilienten) Infrastruktur gerecht wird. Da die Ernährungswirtschaft ein Teil der kritischen Infrastruktur ist, ist deren Analyse in Hinsicht auf mögliche Angriffspotenziale und auf Ausfallsicherheit von gesellschaftlicher Relevanz. Wir schlagen Resilient Smart Farming (RSF) zur Nutzung digitaler Technologien in krisensicherer Infrastruktur vor.

description: To investigate the inhibitory nature of hydroxychavicol against the COVID-19 associated mycotic infections, the present in silico study was performed in hydroxychavicol with the target Lanosterol 14 alpha demethylase and its competency was compared with four approved anti-fungal drugs. The corona virus pandemic has drawn stark lines between rich nations and poor, and the occurrence of COVID-19 associated mycotic infections, mucormycosis epidemic stands as the latest manifestation. The increase in resistance in known fungal pathogens to the available anti-fungal drugs and side effects are the important demands that forced to search anti-fungal compounds from medicinal plants as therapeutic alternatives. During the fishing expedition, Piper betle L., gets tremendous attention for its rich source of medicinally important compounds. Among them, hydroxychavicol has the enormous supportive records against microbial growth. Hydroxychavicol and the chosen drugs were retrieved from the Pubchem database and subjected to ADME analysis. The structure of the target of the chosen COVID-19 associated fungal pathogens was retrieved from PDB and unavailable protein structures were modeled using the Swiss Model and validated. Virtual screening (PyRx version 0.8) was performed and the interactions were visualized using BIOVIA Discovery Studio. ADME screening of hydroxychavicol was found to have clear reciprocity with the drug-likeliness nature and the subsequent molecular docking study revealed its good binding affinity toward the target protein suggesting its inhibitory nature. This study offers the possibility of making use of the suppressive nature of hydroxychavicol in the treatment of mycotic infections either exclusively/in synergistic approach.

Symbolic Boolean Manipulation with Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams

Subjects: subject: 89999 Information and Computing Sciences not elsewhere classified
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs) represent Boolean functions as directed acyclic
graphs. They form a canonical representation, making testing of functional properties such as
satisfiability and equivalence straightforward. In most application, their size remains manageable.
A number of operations on Boolean functions can be implemented as graph algorithms on OBDD
data structures. Using OBDDs, researchers have solved a number of problems in digital system
design, finite state system analysis, artificial intelligence, and mathematical logic. This paper
describes the OBDD data structure, and surveys a number of applications that have been solved
by OBDD-based symbolic analysis.
Active-passive mixtures with bulk loading: a minimal active engine in one dimension

description: We study a one-dimensional mixture of active (run-and-tumble) particles and passive (Brownian) particles, with single-file constraint, in a sawtooth potential. The active particles experience a ratchet effect: this generates a current, which can push passive particles against an applied load. The resulting system operates as an active engine. Using numerical simulations, we analyse the efficiency of this engine, and we discuss how it can be optimised. Efficient operation occurs when the active particles self-organise into teams, which can push the passive ones against large loads by leveraging collective behaviour. We discuss how the particle arrangement, conserved under the single-file constraint, affects the engine efficiency. We also show that relaxing this constraint still allows the engine to operate effectively.

Coulomb staircase in an asymmetrically coupled quantum dot

description: We investigate the Coulomb blockade in quantum dots asymmetrically coupled to the leads for an arbitrary voltage bias focusing on the regime where electrons do not thermalise during their dwell time in the dot. By solving the quantum kinetic equation, we show that the current-voltage characteristics are crucially dependent on the ratio of the Fermi energy to charging energy on the dot. In the standard regime when the Fermi energy is large, there is a Coulomb staircase which is practically the same as in the thermalised regime. In the opposite case of the large charging energy, we identify a new regime in which only one step is left in the staircase, and we anticipate experimental confirmation of this finding.

Remote lensless focusing of a light beam
Creators: name: Petrov, Nikolai I.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Remote focusing of light in a graded-index medium via mode interference is demonstrated using exact analytical solutions of the wave equation. Strong focusing of light occurs at extremely long distances and it revivals periodically with distance due to mode interference. High efficiency transfer of a strongly focused subwavelength spot through optical waveguide over large distances takes place with a period of revival. Super-oscillatory hot-spots with the sizes which are beyond the conventional Abbe diffraction limit can be observed at large distances from the source. This can provide the possibility to detect optical super-resolution information in the far-field without any evanescent waves. Far-field super-resolution imaging capabilities of a graded-index waveguide are also analyzed.

description: In this paper, we develop a graphical calculus to rewrite photonic circuits involving light-matter interactions and non-linear optical effects. We introduce the infinite ZW calculus, a graphical language for linear operators on the bosonic Fock space which captures both linear and non-linear photonic circuits. This calculus is obtained by combining the QPath calculus, a diagrammatic language for linear optics, and the recently developed qudit ZXW calculus, a complete axiomatisation of linear maps between qudits. It comes with a 'lifting' theorem allowing to prove equalities between infinite operators by rewriting in the ZXW calculus. We give a method for representing bosonic and fermionic Hamiltonians in the infinite ZW calculus. This allows us to derive their exponentials by diagrammatic reasoning. Examples include phase shifts and beam splitters, as well as non-linear Kerr media and Jaynes-Cummings light-matter interaction.
