description: La siguiente investigación propone el aprendizaje basado en problemas mediado por el uso de un blog, permitiendo favorecer la comprensión del pensamiento aleatorio en el contexto de los estudiantes de grado Noveno de la Institución Educativa San Francisco de Asís de San Bernardo del Viento del departamento de Córdoba, la cual busca una alternativa de solución a la problemática que se observa en la asignatura de estadística en cuanto a las dificultades que manifiestan sus estudiantes por no comprender de manera satisfactoria los contenidos desarrollados, lo que genera inconvenientes cuando se requieren solucionar ejercicios aplicados en el contexto. De la misma manera, es una investigación de carácter cualitativo que tiene como referencia el modelo de Investigación Acción-Pedagógica, lo que conllevó a establecer una serie de estrategias que permitió alcanzar los objetivos propuestos, desde la determinación de las consideraciones necesarias para promover el aprendizaje basado en problemas, según intereses de los estudiantes; desarrollo de estrategias didácticas y tecnológicas, de acuerdo a los aportes de estudiantes y docentes; implementación del blog en blogger y su correspondiente uso conforme a la situación ocasionada por el covid- 19; por último, la valoración del proceso generado. Dejando claro, que el uso de estrategias didácticas y tecnológicas deben partir de las necesidades de los estudiantes y se consolidan de los aportes de docentes; además, el uso adecuado de recursos educativos digitales promueve ambientes de aprendizajes que motivan de manera permanente a los estudiantes con la debida orientación del docente.

description: This report presents the results of task 1.3 of the FORESEA 2050 project on consumer expectations and motivations concerning the consumption of fishery and aquaculture products (FAPs). In the first part, it demonstrates the historical importance of health aspects in the demand for FAP. It then describes the development of green demand in the French market in light of increasing anthropogenic pressure on ecosystems. The second part of the report discusses current consumer preferences for labelled FAPs. It shows that, in a situation of multiple choices, French consumers prioritise labels that guarantee superior quality of the FAP. Ethical demand remains secondary. Finally, the last section looks at the perceptions, expectations and preferences of consumers aged 18 to 34 with regard to FAPs. This group is of particular interest in a prospective study, as it constitutes the 'heart' of future consumption of FAP. This section confirms the particular consumer behaviour of 'young people' concerning FFP, with a marked interest in environmental and animal welfare issues in their consumption.
description: Ce rapport rend compte des résultats de la tâche 1.3 du projet FORESEA 2050 sur les attentes et motivations des consommateurs vis-à-vis de la consommation des produits de la pêche et de l’aquaculture (PPA). Dans sa première partie, il démontre l’importance historique des aspects santé dans la demande de PPA. Par la suite, face à une pression anthropique de plus en plus importante sur les écosystèmes, il décrit le développement de la demande verte sur le marché français. La seconde partie du rapport discute des préférences actuelles des consommateurs vis-à-vis des PPA labellisés. Elle démontre que dans une situation de choix multiples, les consommateurs français recherchent en priorité les labels assurant une qualité supérieure du PPA. La demande éthique reste secondaire. Enfin, la dernière partie aborde les perceptions, attentes et préférences des consommateurs de 18 à 34 ans vis-à-vis des PPA. Ce public est particulièrement intéressant dans un travail de prospective, car il constitue le « cœur » de la consommation future de PPA. Cette partie confirme des comportements de consommation particuliers des « jeunes » vis-à-vis des PPA, avec un intérêt marqué pour les questions environnementales et de bien-être animal dans leur consommation.

description: The current study examined how German speakers described a scene where an agent acts upon a patient when the patient of the event was cued (a red dot preceding the patient, Experiment 1 vs. preview of the patient, Experiment 2). Prior research has shown that effects of attention manipulation on syntactic choice display cross-linguistic variation with notable differences between languages that have morphological case marking on noun phrases and English that lacks such marking. Since in German nominative subject case and accusative object case are unambiguously marked on masculine nouns but not on feminine nouns, it provides the ideal testing ground to investigate how case marking affects sentence production. Our results did not reveal any effect of case marking although the different types of attention manipulation were effective. Moreover, the eye-gaze data revealed that German speakers applied the same sentence-planning strategy for both masculine nouns (unambiguous) and feminine nouns (ambiguous).
The tip-of-the-Mandarin tongue: phonological and orthographic priming of TOT resolution in Mandarin speakers

description: Studies of tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) experiences in English have shown that priming the TOT’s first syllable, especially a low-frequency one, helps to resolve the TOT. We explored whether priming of TOT resolution occurs in Mandarin, a language whose visual representation (orthography) is largely independent of sound (phonology). Participants saw descriptions corresponding to cheng-yu targets, four-character Chinese idioms. After a TOT, they saw a list of words where one was sometimes a phonological (Experiment 1) or orthographic (Experiment 2) prime. Phonological primes had a first character different from the target’s but contained either its first syllable or first phoneme, whereas orthographic primes contained the target’s first radical. Results showed that two factors marginally increased TOT resolution: first syllable primes and higher-frequency first radicals. These results are discussed in terms of a transmission deficit model of TOTs in Mandarin where priming of TOT resolution has both similarities and differences with alphabetic languages.

description: Animacy is an important semantic assignment principle in both gender and numeral classifier systems. Linguistic research has shown that animacy is not a simple binary feature but represents a fine-grained taxonomy of different animacy levels. We used the classifier system of Mandarin Chinese, with classifiers varying in semantic constraint, to assess whether the referents’ degree of animacy influences the processing of classifier-noun pairs. ERP results show an effect of agreement mismatch only when the general classifier 个 gè is paired with nouns referring to higher animals (chimpanzee, lion). For these pairs, the sortal classifier 只 zhī has to be chosen. No such effect was observed for nouns that refer to intermediate-level and lower animals (octopus, earthworm), indicating that 个 gè does not constitute an agreement mismatch here. We also observed significant ERP effects indicating that speakers of Mandarin Chinese process the general classifier and the specific sortal classifiers differently.

description: A decade ago, the first leptogenesis model based on inflation was proposed, where the complex phase of the inflaton field carries lepton number. If the inflaton field is an axion, it can couple to gravitational waves and gauge fields via. Chern-Simons invariants. Due to these couplings, birefringent gravitational and gauge primordial perturbations are created during inflation to generate a lepton asymmetry, establishing a possible connection between non-vanishing TB-parity violating polarization cross-correlations and leptogenesis. We also discuss the prospect for a subset of these models can directly source circular (V-mode) polarization in the CMB.

description: We theoretically investigate quantum interference of two single photons at a lossy asymmetric beam splitter, the most general passive 2$\times$2 optical circuit. The losses in the circuit result in a non-unitary scattering matrix with a non-trivial set of constraints on the elements of the scattering matrix. Our analysis using the noise operator formalism shows that the loss allows tunability of quantum interference to an extent not possible with a lossless beam splitter. Our theoretical studies support the experimental demonstrations of programmable quantum interference in highly multimodal systems such as opaque scattering media and multimode fibers.

description: Many dense interstellar clouds are observable in emission in the near-IR, commonly referred to as "Cloudshine", and in the mid-IR, the so-called "Coreshine". These C-shine observations have usually been explained with grain growth but no model has yet been able to self-consistently explain the dust spectral energy distribution from the near-IR to the submm. We want to demonstrate the ability of our new core/mantle evolutionary dust model THEMIS (The Heterogeneous dust Evolution Model at the IaS), which has been shown to be valid in the far-IR and submm, to reproduce the C-shine observations. Our starting point is a physically motivated core/mantle dust model. It consists of 3 dust populations: small aromatic-rich carbon grains; bigger core/mantle grains with mantles of aromatic-rich carbon and cores either made of amorphous aliphatic-rich carbon or amorphous silicate. We assume an evolutionary path where these grains, when entering denser regions, may first form a second aliphatic-rich carbon mantle (coagulation of small grains, accretion of carbon from the gas phase), second coagulate together to form large aggregates, and third accrete gas phase molecules coating them with an ice mantle. To compute the corresponding dust emission and scattering, we use a 3D Monte-Carlo radiative transfer code. We show that our global evolutionary dust modelling approach THEMIS allows us to reproduce C-shine observations towards dense starless clouds. Dust scattering and emission is most sensitive to the cloud central density and to the steepness of the cloud density profile. Varying these two parameters leads to changes, which are stronger in the near-IR, in both the C-shine intensity and profile. With a combination of aliphatic-rich mantle formation and low-level coagulation into aggregates, we can self-consistently explain the observed C-shine and far-IR/submm emission towards dense starless clouds.

description: Given two numerical semigroups $S$ and $T$ and a positive integer $d$, $S$ is said to be one over $d$ of $T$ if $S=\{s \in \mathbb{N} \ | \ ds \in T \}$ and in this case $T$ is called a $d$-fold of $S$. We prove that the minimal genus of the $d$-folds of $S$ is $g + \lceil \frac{(d-1)f}{2} \rceil$, where $g$ and $f$ denote the genus and the Frobenius number of $S$. The case $d=2$ is a problem proposed by Robles-Pérez, Rosales, and Vasco. Furthermore, we find the minimal genus of the symmetric doubles of $S$ and study the particular case when $S$ is almost symmetric. Finally, we study the Frobenius number of the quotient of some families of numerical semigroups.

Simulation results demonstrate that the OLA-ZP methods can achieve the same acceptable performance as the overlap-save method. The required minimum overlap (or zero-padding) in the FDE is derived, and the optimum fast Fourier transform length to minimize the computational complexity is also analyzed.

description: Majoron-like bosons would emerge from a supernova (SN) core by neutrino coalescence of the form $νν\toϕ$ and $\barν\barν\toϕ$ with 100 MeV-range energies. Subsequent decays to (anti)neutrinos of all flavors provide a flux component with energies much larger than the usual flux from the "neutrino sphere." The absence of 100 MeV-range events in the Kamiokande-II and Irvine-Michigan-Brookhaven signal of SN 1987A implies that less than 1% of the total energy was thus emitted and provides the strongest constraint on the Majoron-neutrino coupling of $g\lesssim 10^{-9}\,{\rm MeV}/m_ϕ$ for $100~{\rm eV}\lesssim m_ϕ\lesssim 100~{\rm MeV}$. It is straightforward to extend our new argument to other hypothetical feebly interacting particles.

description: In this paper we employ non equilibrium thermodynamics of fluxes and forces to describe magnetization and heat transport. By the theory we are able to identify the thermodynamic driving force of the magnetization current as the gradient of the effective field $\nabla H^*$. This definition permits to define the spin Seebeck coefficient $ε_M$ which relates $\nabla H^*$ and the temperature gradient $\nabla T$. By applying the theory to the geometry of the longitudinal spin Seebeck effect we are able to obtain the optimal conditions for generating large magnetization currents. Furthermore, by using the results of recent experiments, we obtain an order of magnitude for the value of $ε_{M} \sim 10^{-2}$ TK$^{-1}$ for yttrium iron garnet (Y$_3$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$).

description: A interdisciplinaridade entre a Matemática e a Educação Física tem se revelado um desafio e, ao mesmo tempo, uma oportunidade valiosa para elevar o patamar do ensino nessas áreas. A união dessas disciplinas pode trazer vantagens notáveis aos alunos, promovendo uma aprendizagem mais abrangente e conectada com o mundo real. Entretanto, é essencial ressaltar que essa abordagem demanda planejamento estratégico, colaboração ativa e adaptabilidade dos professores envolvidos. O objetivo deste texto é apresentar uma proposta de interdisciplinaridade entre Matemática e Educação Física, destacando suas contribuições teóricas e práticas. Através dessa integração, é possível explorar conceitos matemáticos de forma concreta e lúdica, utilizando o movimento e as atividades físicas como ferramentas de ensino. A metodologia adotada será a pesquisa bibliográfica, que consiste na busca, seleção e análise de fontes bibliográficas relevantes para embasar o estudo em questão. Conclui-se que a integração da Matemática e da Educação Física proporciona uma aprendizagem mais significativa para os alunos. Ao relacionar conceitos matemáticos com atividades físicas, os estudantes conseguem compreender de forma mais concreta e aplicada os conteúdos matemáticos abstratos, o que resulta em um maior engajamento e motivação para aprender.

description: We describe our spectroscopic follow-up to the Local Group Galaxy Survey (LGGS) photometry of M31 and M33. We have obtained new spectroscopy of 1895 stars, allowing us to classify 1496 of them for the first time. Our study has identified many foreground stars, and established membership for hundreds of early- and mid-type supergiants. We have also found 9 new candidate Luminous Blue Variables and a previously unrecognized Wolf-Rayet star. We republish the LGGS M31 and M33 catalogs with improved coordinates and including spectroscopy from the literature and our new results. The spectroscopy in this paper is responsible for the vast majority of the stellar classifications in these two nearby spiral neighbors. The most luminous (and hence massive) of the stars in our sample are early-type B supergiants, as expected; the more massive O stars will be fainter visually, and thus mostly remain unobserved so far. The majority of the unevolved stars in our sample are in the 20-40Mo range.

description: Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) have become a widely-applied scene representation technique in recent years, showing advantages for robot navigation and manipulation tasks. To further advance the utility of NeRFs for robotics, we propose a transformer-based framework, NeRF-Loc, to extract 3D bounding boxes of objects in NeRF scenes. NeRF-Loc takes a pre-trained NeRF model and camera view as input and produces labeled, oriented 3D bounding boxes of objects as output. Using current NeRF training tools, a robot can train a NeRF environment model in real-time and, using our algorithm, identify 3D bounding boxes of objects of interest within the NeRF for downstream navigation or manipulation tasks. Concretely, we design a pair of paralleled transformer encoder branches, namely the coarse stream and the fine stream, to encode both the context and details of target objects. The encoded features are then fused together with attention layers to alleviate ambiguities for accurate object localization. We have compared our method with conventional RGB(-D) based methods that take rendered RGB images and depths from NeRFs as inputs. Our method is better than the baselines.

description: GeSn is a promising group-IV semiconductor material for on-chip Si photonics devices and high-mobility transistors. These devices require the use of doped GeSn regions, achieved preferably in-situ during epitaxy. From the electronic valence point of view, p-type dopants of group-IV materials include B, Al, Ga and In. The latter element has never been investigated as p-type dopant in GeSn. In this work, we explore in-situ In p-type doping of GeSn grown by MBE. We demonstrate that In acts as a surfactant during epitaxial growth of GeSn:In, accumulating on surface and inducing segregation in the form of mobile Sn-In liquid droplets, strongly affecting the local composition of the material. In non-defective GeSn, we measure a maximal In incorporation of 2.8E18cm-3, which is two orders of magnitude lower than the values reported in the literature for in-situ p-type doping of GeSn. We further show that In induces the nucleation of defects at low growth temperatures, hindering out-of-equilibrium growth processes for maximization of dopant incorporation. This work provides insights on the limitations associated with in-situ In doping of GeSn, and discourages its utilization in GeSn-based optoelectronic devices.

The resulting second law of thermodynamics is tighter than the conventional Clausius inequality. The derived bound is the quantum mutual information of the conditional thermal state, which is a thermal state conditioned on the initial energy measurement. These results elucidate the role of quantum correlations in the heat exchange between multiple subsystems.

description: Purpose of Project: Depression is a global mental health issue, and its screening is recommended by the US Preventive Services Task Force. Within the Korean community there is a disparity in depression treatment due to the stigma associated with mental health care. This DNP project describes the impact on the depression screening rate among Korean immigrants.Methodology: This quality improvement project used the PHQ-9 tool to screen for depression on Korean immigrants at a private primary care clinic in NJ. The patients who met the inclusion criteria (Korean adults, able to read either English or Korean, never diagnosed with depression) completed PHQ-9 questionnaire during the registration process. The patients with PHQ-9 score 5 or above were further assessed for a depression diagnosis and possible pharmacologic treatment and psychiatrist referral. Retrospective and prospective chart reviews were performed to evaluate the impact of depression screening on diagnosis and treatment of depression. Results: 4-week retrospective chart review (n=64) and 4-week prospective chart review (n=64) were done to compare depression screening before and after the intervention. Screening rate improved from 0% to 45.31% with a statistical significant (p = .000). From 29 completed depression screenings, seven patients had PHQ-9 scores 5 or above. Of the seven patients, three patients were diagnosed with depression by the medical doctor. Three patients were started on antidepressant treatment, and one of the patients was referred to a psychiatrist. Implications for Practice: The findings imply that depression screening can be improved in the Korean community by staff education on depression screening using current guidelines. Education on depression screening can be added into new staff training which will encourage depression screening in primary care setting and benefit mental health in Korean community.

description: En la actualidad se observa el papel fundamental que juega el comercio exterior tanto en nuestro país como en el resto del mundo. Es por esto, que en busca de la aplicación de técnicas modernas de comercio competitivo, el gobierno colombiano expidió el decreto 2685 de 1999, procurando que la legislación vigente constituya una valiosa herramienta para brindar transparencia, claridad, celeridad y certeza a los usuarios del comercio exterior. Con el fin de facilitarles a los particulares el cumplimiento de las normas legales en cualquier procedimiento aduanero, fueron creadas las Sociedades de Intermediación Aduanera, quienes son las personas jurídicas autorizadas por la Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales (DIAN) para ejercer la intermediación aduanera. Por esto es fundamental que este tipo de sociedades enmarquen sus funciones en la eficiencia y en la competitividad exigidas por el mercado en que se desenvuelven. La empresa ASCOINTER LTDA, es una SIA que realiza diariamente muchas actividades de agenciamiento aduanero, algunas de estas actividades presentan fallas de tipo humano, técnico y logístico, así como problemas de gestión los cuales ocasionan que la empresa pierda clientes y por lo tanto su imagen se vea disminuida principalmente por los errores y costos que conlleva una errada práctica de las actividades de control y seguimiento.

description: This article explores the informal recycling of young Congolese refugees based in three neighborhoods of Kampala: Kamwokya, Nakulabye, and Lungujja. Livelihood experiences of Congolese youth related to the waste picking is identified as an important asset to navigate the everyday exclusion of the city. If the right-allocating mechanism positions refugees in stratified membership around certain rights, in Uganda those who chose to settle in cities independently are not eligible of humanitarian aid and, therefore, most of them remain in precarious conditions. Congolese youth’ urban hustle highlights the importance of strengthening local and national knowledge about forced migration in urban settings. Questo articolo esplora il riciclo informale dei giovani rifugiati congolesi che vivono in tre quartieri di Kampala: Kamwokya, Nakulabye e Lungujja. Le esperienze dei giovani congolesi legate alla raccolta dei rifiuti sono identificate come una risorsa importante per navigare l'esclusione quotidiana della città. Se il meccanismo di assegnazione dei diritti posiziona i rifugiati in un'appartenenza stratificata intorno a certi diritti, in Uganda coloro che hanno scelto di stabilirsi in città in modo indipendente non hanno diritto agli aiuti umanitari e, quindi, la maggior parte di loro rimane in condizioni precarie. L’economia informale dei giovani congolesi evidenzia l'importanza di rafforzare le conoscenze locali e nazionali sulla migrazione forzata in ambiente urbano.

description: Automaton based approaches have enabled robots to perform various complex tasks. However, most existing automaton based algorithms highly rely on the manually customized representation of states for the considered task, limiting its applicability in deep reinforcement learning algorithms. To address this issue, by incorporating Transformer into reinforcement learning, we develop a Double-Transformer-guided Temporal Logic framework (T2TL) that exploits the structural feature of Transformer twice, i.e., first encoding the LTL instruction via the Transformer module for efficient understanding of task instructions during the training and then encoding the context variable via the Transformer again for improved task performance. Particularly, the LTL instruction is specified by co-safe LTL. As a semantics-preserving rewriting operation, LTL progression is exploited to decompose the complex task into learnable sub-goals, which not only converts non-Markovian reward decision processes to Markovian ones, but also improves the sampling efficiency by simultaneous learning of multiple sub-tasks. An environment-agnostic LTL pre-training scheme is further incorporated to facilitate the learning of the Transformer module resulting in an improved representation of LTL. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the T2TL framework.

description: In the Northern Ugandan post-conflict scenario, marked by the consequences of the civil war, women still find themselves in a vulnerable condition. In this setting, community gardens - open to the whole community or specific groups to cultivate them - seem to play a significant role in women's empowerment and post-conflict reintegration. Through the analysis of the life stories of two Ugandan women, it has been possible to investigate the social role of community gardens, their effectiveness, and their benefits for the women who take part in them. Nel contesto post-conflitto nord ugandese, segnato dalle conseguenze della guerra civile, le donne si trovano ancora oggi in una condizione di vulnerabilità. In questo scenario gli orti comunitari - aperti alla comunità o specifici gruppi perché chiunque voglia possa coltivati - paiono svolgere un ruolo significativo per l'empowerment femminile e il reinserimento sociale post-conflitto. Attraverso l'analisi delle storie di vita di due donne nord ugandesi è stato possibile indagare il ruolo degli orti comunitari, la loro efficacia e i benefici per chi vi partecipa.

description: We consider the single-particle density of states (DOS) in the strongly correlated double layer (DL) system, without applied external fields. We demonstrate an unusual collapse effect in the spectrum of the normal single-particle spectral function at the particular high-symmetry point corresponding to the specific bunching-point solution of the chemical potential in the Frenkel channel. We show that at the low-temperature limit the anomalous spectral function obeys a concave like structure, which is directly related to the interlayer pair formation and condensation. We calculate the normal DOS functions, and we find their temperature dependence for different values of the interlayer Coulomb interaction parameter. We show that the normal electron and hole DOS functions demonstrate typical condensates double peak structures on the background of the excitonic pair formation quasiparticle spectra and we have found the evidence of the hybridization gap in the case of high-temperature limit, and small interlayer coupling parameter. Meanwhile, we show a possible crossover from the excitonic condensate regime into the band insulator state. The structure of the normal DOS spectra, in the Frenkel channel and for the strong interlayer coupling regime is found gapless for all temperature limits, which clearly indicates the strong coherence effects in the DL structure, and the excitonic condensates therein. We have shown that the excitonic pair formation and pair condensation occurs simultaneously in the DL system, in contrast with the purely three-dimensional (3D) or two-dimensional cases (2D), discussed previously.

description: Compositionality is the principle behind building complex systems by composing together simpler sub-systems. First, a complex task is broken down into a pipeline of simpler, more straightforward tasks. Once systems are built for the simpler tasks, intricate details are abstracted away and components are pipelined together to reason about the overall task. The knowledge and resources spent building the systems for the sub-task are then reused towards building various complex systems. This divide-and-conquer approach to compositionality promotes the flexibility, efficiency, and overall practicality of these systems. While traditional sequence systems such as cascade models leveraged compositionality, contemporary end-to-end models such as encoder-decoder models fail to satisfy even the basic compositionality requirements, i.e., having a clear understanding of the function of each component. The lack thereof hinders the practical use of end-to-end systems, despite these approaches having advanced the state-of-the-art in a wide range of sequence tasks. In this thesis, with a focus on sequence tasks for speech and language, we identify four characteristics of compositionality that facilitate the practical deployment of end-to-end models, i.e., having component or sub-task level (1) Performance Monitoring, (2) Search and Retrieval, (3) Resource Pooling, and (4) Reusability. We present three models with the above characteristics, which exhibit different levels of reusability behavior, from direct plug-and-play ability to the ability for further finetuning towards the end task. The first is the CTC Hybrid model, which creates a hybrid of models by decomposing a sequence task into alignment using a CTC model and language generation using a language model. For a fully differentiable alternative, we present LegoNN modular encoder-decoder models, which build reusable encoder and decoder modules across various sequence tasks, with the ability for further fine-tuning. Lastly, we present our Compositional E2E model with searchable hidden intermediates that allows using the sub-task formulations to build an end-toend task model. It also allows reusing pre-trained sub-task models for retrieving better intermediate representations in the fully-differentiable model. Finally, we discuss practical implications on the evaluation of end-to-end models, where we show how to make their evaluation more reliable and informative by testing their generalizability towards each sub-task in a complex sequence task.

description: We propose to model hadronization of parton showers in QCD jets through a hybrid approach involving quark recombination and string fragmentation. This is achieved by allowing gluons at the end of the perturbative shower evolution to undergo a non-perturbative splitting into quark and antiquark pairs, then applying a Monte-Carlo version of instantaneous quark recombination, and finally subjecting remnant quarks (those which have not found a recombination partner) to Lund string fragmentation. When applied to parton showers from the PYTHIA Monte Carlo event generator, the final hadron spectra from our calculation compare quite well to PYTHIA jets that have been hadronized with the default Lund string fragmentation. Our new approach opens up the possibility to generalize hadronization to jets embedded in a quark gluon plasma.
