description: Many computer vision problems are formulated as the optimization of a cost function. This approach faces two main challenges: (i) designing a cost function with a local optimum at an acceptable solution, and (ii) developing an efficient numerical method to search for one (or multiple) of these local optima. While designing such functions is feasible in the noiseless case, the stability and location of local optima are mostly unknown under noise, occlusion, or missing data. In practice, this can result in undesirable local optima or not having a local optimum in the expected solution. On the other hand, numerical optimization algorithms in high-dimensional spaces are typically local and often rely on expensive first or second order information to guide the search. To overcome these limitations, we propose Discriminative Optimization (DO), a method that learns search directions from data without the need of a cost function. Specifically, DO learns a sequence of updates in the search space that leads to stationary points corresponding to the desired solutions. Using training data, DO can find solutions that are more robust to perturbation of real data, unlike conventional optimization which may fail if there is a mismatch between the cost function and the noise distribution. We provide a formal analysis of DO, proving its convergence in the training phase. We also explore the relation between DO and generalized convexity and monotonicity, and show that the conditions for the convergence of DO are broader than those required by convexity. In terms of applications, we illustrate DO’s potential in the problems of 3D point cloud registration, camera pose estimation, and image denoising. We show that DO can generally outperform state-of-theart algorithms in terms of accuracy, robustness to perturbations, and computational efficiency.

We calculate derivatives of the Jones polynomial in a computational time proportional to $N^α$ with respect to the system size $N$ .

Ekphrastic Drag: Temporal Transgressions in John Barton's West of Darkness: Emily Carr: A Self-Portrait
Creators: name: Shaw, Kevin
Publisher: name: Canadian Literature
Year: 2016

description: This paper considers how John Barton's poetic "self portrait" of Emily Carr functions as a queer form of Canadian (auto)biography. Barton's collection suggests the implications of drag for nationalist discourse, particularly in the reiterative presence of iconic figures. By inhabiting Carr’s paintings and her voice to tell the story of her struggle for expression as a social and artistic outsider, Barton transforms Carr’s landscapes into a representation of, and respite from, the confines of an interiorized sexual closet.

description: The Sydney University Giant Air-shower Recorder (SUGAR) measured the energy spectrum of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays reconstructed from muon-detector readings, while the Pierre Auger Observatory, looking at the same Southern sky, uses the calorimetric fluorescence method for the same purpose. Comparison of their two spectra allows us to reconstruct the empirical dependence of the number of muons in the shower on the primary energy for energies between $10^{17}$ and $10^{18.5}$ eV. We compare this dependence with the predictions of hadronic interaction models \mbox{QGSJET-II-04} and \mbox{EPOS-LHC}. The empirically determined number of muons with energies above 0.75 GeV exceeds the simulated one by the factors $\sim$1.67 and $\sim$1.28 for $10^{17}$ eV proton and iron primaries, respectively. The muon excess grows moderately with the primary energy, increasing by an additional factor of $\sim 1.2$ for $10^{18.5}$ eV primaries.
Discrete Dynamics in Chemical Process Control and Automation

description: Formal verification has previously been applied to chemical plant control and automation systems to ensure that they operate as intended. This dissertation examines the related objective of proving that a particular control system does not operate as intended. To this end, we present a set of specifications that address certain aspects of the correct operation of a general control system. Some of those specifications, which relate to invariance and reachability of states that satisfy given logical constraints, do not fall within the classes of specifications that have been addressed in previous work related to the falsification of hybrid systems. For a specification from this class, a sound falsification algorithm is presented which can guarantee that a hybrid system does not meet the specification. The algorithm involves abstraction, as a finite-state discrete system, of the infinite-state hybrid dynamical system that arises when discrete control is applied to a continuous process. The falsification result relies on new results that we present which concern the supervisory control of discrete event systems subject to specifications that involve multiple reachability requirements. The methods we present are applied to two industrial case studies, which were provided by The Dow Chemical Company. We also present two software tools which apply the methods that we have developed. The first tool, SynthSMV, is an extension of the model checking solver NuSMV that can solve some supervisory control problems. NuSMV was chosen as the basis for our work in falsification because previous work has shown that its symbolic model checking algorithms can handle models of industrial-scale control systems in the context of verification. The second tool, st2smv, translates industrial control code to a formal model that can be solved using SynthSMV. The approach is similar to what has been done in previous work that focused on model checking and verification, with some extensions to enable the application of our work concerning supervisory control and falsification.

description: In sight of fundamental thermal limits on further substantial performance improvements of modern digital computational processing units, wave-based analog computation is becoming an enticing alternative. A wave, as it propagates through a carefully tailored medium, performs the desired computational operation. Yet, the necessary designs are so intricate that experimental demonstrations will necessitate further technological advances. Here, we show that, counterintuitively, the carefully tailored medium can be replaced with a random medium, subject to an appropriate shaping of the incident wave front. Using tunable metasurface reflect-arrays, we demonstrate our concept experimentally in a chaotic microwave cavity. We conclude that off-the-shelf wireless communication infrastructure in combination with a simple reflect-array suffices to perform analog computation with Wi-Fi waves reverberating in a room.

description: To cosmic rays incident near the horizon the Earth's atmosphere represents a beam dump with a slant depth reaching 36000~g~cm$^{-2}$ at $90^\circ$. The prompt decay of a heavy quark produced by very high energy cosmic ray showers will leave an unmistakable signature in this dump. We translate the failure of experiments to detect such a signal into an upper limit on the heavy quark hadroproduction cross section in the energy region beyond existing accelerators. Our results disfavor any rapid growth of the cross section or the gluon structure function beyond very conservative estimates based on perturbative QCD.

Discovering Compact and Informative Structures through Data Partitioning

Subjects: subject: 170203 Knowledge Representation and Machine Learning
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: In many practical scenarios, prediction for high-dimensional observations can be accurately performed using only a fraction of the existing features. However, the set of relevant predictive features, known as the sparsity pattern, varies across data. For instance, features that are informative for a subset of observations might be useless for the rest. In fact, in such cases, the dataset can be seen as an aggregation of samples belonging to several low-dimensional sub-models, potentially due to different generative processes. My thesis introduces several techniques for identifying sparse predictive structures and the areas of the feature space where these structures are effective. This information allows the training of models which perform better than those obtained through traditional feature selection. We formalize Informative Projection Recovery, the problem of extracting a set of low-dimensional projections of data which jointly form an accurate solution to a given learning task. Our solution to this problem is a regression-based algorithm that identifies informative projections by optimizing over a matrix of point-wise loss estimators. It generalizes to a number of machine learning problems, offering solutions to classification, clustering and regression tasks. Experiments show that our method can discover and leverage low-dimensional structure, yielding accurate and compact models. Our method is particularly useful in applications involving multivariate numeric data in which expert assessment of the results is of the essence. Additionally, we developed an active learning framework which works with the obtained compact models in finding unlabeled data deemed to be worth expert evaluation. For this purpose, we enhance standard active selection criteria using the information encapsulated by the trained model. The advantage of our approach is that the labeling effort is expended mainly on samples which benefit models from the hypothesis class we are considering. Additionally, the domain experts benefit from the availability of informative axis aligned projections at the time of labeling. Experiments show that this results in an improved learning rate over standard selection criteria, both for synthetic data and real-world data from the clinical domain, while the comprehensible view of the data supports the labeling process and helps preempt labeling errors.

description: Cathodoluminescence spectra of free xenon clusters produced by condensation of xenon-argon gas mixtures in supersonic jets expanding into vacuum were studied. By varying initial experimental parameters, including xenon concentration, we could obtain clusters with a xenon core (300-3500 atoms) covered by an argon outer shell as well as shell-free xenon clusters (about 1500 atoms). The cluster size and temperature (about 40 K for both cases) were measured electronographically. Luminescence bands evidencing the existence of bulk and surface excitons were detected for shell-free xenon clusters. The emission from bulk excitons in small clusters is supposed to be due to processes of their multiple elastic reflections from the xenon-vacuum interface. A presence of an argon shell causes extinction of the excitonic bands. In addition, some new bands were found which have no analogs for bulk xenon cryosamples.

description: The ANITA balloon experiment has recently observed several ~EeV cascade events at an angle below the horizon that renders any Standard Model (SM) interpretation unlikely as the Earth is significantly opaque to all SM particles at such energies. In this paper, we study a sterile neutrino interpretation of these events, calculating the angular acceptance of cascades and the relative sensitivities of several experiments to a cascade initiated by an EeV sterile neutrino. We find that ANITA is uniquely sensitive to this type of upward directed cascade signal over a wide portion of the sky and from the direction of the two observed events has a transient acceptance roughly equivalent to that of the IceCube experiment.

description: It is conjectured that in the geometric formulation of quantum computing, one can study quantum complexity through classical entropy of statistical ensembles established non-relativistically in the group manifold of unitary operators. The kinetic and positional decompositions of statistical entropy are conjectured to correspond to the Kolmogorov complexity and computational complexity, respectively, of corresponding quantum circuits. In this paper, we claim that by applying the virial theorem to the group manifold, one can derive a generic relation between Kolmogorov complexity and computational complexity in the thermal equilibrium.

description: We provide a class of examples of interacting particle systems on $Z^d$, for $din1,2$, that admit a unique translation-invariant stationary measure, which is not the long-time limit of all translation-invariant starting measures, due to the existence of time-periodic orbits in the associated measure-valued dynamics. This is the first such example and shows that even in low dimensions, not every limit point of the measure-valued dynamics needs to be a time-stationary measure.

Direct Pose Estimation and Refinement

Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University

Subjects: subject: 80101 Adaptive Agents and Intelligent Robotics
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: We study a fundamental question in pose estimation from vision-only video data: should the pose of a camera be determined from fixed and known correspondences? Or should correspondences be simultaneously estimated alongside the pose? Determining pose from fixed correspondences is known as feature-based, where wellestablished tools from projective geometry are utilized to formulate and solve a plethora of pose estimation problems. Nonetheless, in degraded imaging conditions such as low light and blur, reliably detecting and precisely localizing interest points becomes challenging. Conversely, estimating correspondences alongside motion is known as the direct approach, where image data are used directly to determine geometric quantities without relying on sparse interest points as an intermediate representation. The approach is in general more precise by virtue of redundancy as many measurements are used to estimate a few degreesof- freedom. However, direct methods are more sensitive to changes in illumination. In this work, we combine the best of the feature-based approaches with the precision of direct methods. Namely, we make use of densely and sparsely evaluated local feature descriptors in a direct image alignment framework to address pose estimation in challenging conditions. Applications include tracking planar targets under sudden and drastic changes in illumination as well as visual odometry in poorly-lit subterranean mines. Motivated by the success of the proposed approach, we introduce a novel formulation for the joint refinement of pose and structure across multiple views akin to feature-based bundle adjustment (BA). In contrast to minimizing the reprojection error using BA, initial estimates are refined such that the photometric consistency of their image projections is maximized without the need for correspondences. The fundamentally different technique is evaluated on a range of datasets and is shown to improve upon the accuracy of the state-of-the-art in vision-based simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM).

A high throughput approach for single particle QCSE characterization was developed and utilized to screen a library of such nanosensors. Type II ZnSe CdS seeded nanorods were found to have the best performance among the different nanosensors evaluated in this work. The degree of correlation between intensity changes and spectral changes of the excitons emission under applied field was characterized. An upper limit for the temporal response of individual ZnSe CdS nanorods to voltage modulation was characterized by high throughput, high temporal resolution intensity measurements using a novel photon counting camera. The measured 3.5 us response time is limited by the voltage modulation electronics and represents about 30 times higher bandwidth than needed for recording an action potential in a neuron.

Dilatational Rheology and Controlled Generation of Microscale Complex Fluid Interfaces

Subjects: subject: 90499 Chemical Engineering not elsewhere classified

description: Complex interfaces stabilized with materials including surfactants, polymers, and particles have dilatational properties that are important in processing emulsions and foams. Dilatational rheology is difficult to measure on interfaces due to the coupling of dilatation and shear inherent in common measurement apparatuses. Compounding the problem is the lack of control over complex interface formation in emulsification, which can obscure relationships between interfacial rheology and bulk emulsion properties. This thesis provides tools to measure dilatational properties of interfaces and generate interfaces with controlled surface coverage. A small amplitude analysis of dilatational rheology on capillary pressure tensiometers is used to develop a method for separating intrinsic rheology from surface tension effects. This analysis is applied in dilatational measurements of insoluble interfaces at the microscale, and good agreement is observed between the microscale measurements and Langmuir trough measurements. The second half of the thesis focuses on the controlled generation of particle-stabilized interfaces. A two-lobed shape transition is observed for confined bubbles traveling in a surface active particle suspension, and a model is developed to predict the particle surface coverage on the bubble interface. This model is then applied to generate monodisperse bubbles with uniform nonspherical bubbles due to particle jamming at the interface. The tools developed in this thesis are crucial to future development of relationships between the dilatational rheology of interfaces and the bulk properties of emulsions and foams.

description: We demonstrate cavity-enhanced Raman emission from a single atomic defect in a solid. Our platform is a single silicon-vacancy center in diamond coupled with a monolithic diamond photonic crystal cavity. The cavity enables an unprecedented frequency tuning range of the Raman emission (100 GHz) that significantly exceeds the spectral inhomogeneity of silicon-vacancy centers in diamond nanostructures. We also show that the cavity selectively suppresses the phonon-induced spontaneous emission that degrades the efficiency of Raman photon generation. Our results pave the way towards photon-mediated many-body interactions between solid-state quantum emitters in a nanophotonic platform.

description: After the classification of topological states of matter has been clarified for non-interacting electron systems, the theoretical connection between gapless boundary modes and nontrivial bulk topological structures, and their evolutions as a function of dimensions are now well understood. However, such dimensional hierarchy has not been well established experimentally although some indirect evidences were reported, for example, such as the half-quantized Hall conductance via quantum Hall effect and extrapolation in the quantum-oscillation measurement. In this paper, we report the appearance of the possible chiral edge mode from the surface state of topological insulators under magnetic fields, confirming the dimensional hierarchy in three dimensional topological insulators. Applying laser pulses to the surface state of Bi1-xSbx, we find that the sign of voltage relaxation in one edge becomes opposite to that in the other edge only when magnetic fields are applied to the topological insulating phase. We show that this sign difference originates from the chirality of edge states, based on coupled time-dependent Poisson and Boltzmann equations.

description: Observing the production of the Higgs particle in the $γ$-$γ$ mode of a linear $e^+e^-$ collider allows for the measurement of the $Hγγ$ coupling. We point out that for the intermediate Higgs mass range this measurement is considerably more challenging than previously believed. The $b \bar b$ signature receives a large background from the production of heavy quark pairs by resolved photons. We quantify the experimental requirements needed to make a meaningful measurement in the presence of this background.

Non-hydrodynamic quasinormal modes and equilibration of a baryon dense holographic QGP with a critical point

description: We compute the homogeneous limit of non-hydrodynamic quasinormal modes (QNM's) of a phenomenologically realistic Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton (EMD) holographic model for the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) that is able to: i) {\it quantitatively} describe state-of-the-art lattice results for the QCD equation of state and higher order baryon susceptibilities with $2+1$ flavors and physical quark masses up to highest values of the baryon chemical potential currently reached in lattice simulations; ii) describe the nearly perfect fluidity of the strongly coupled QGP produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions; iii) give a very good description of the bulk viscosity extracted via some recent Bayesian analyzes of hydrodynamical descriptions of heavy ion experimental data. This EMD model has been recently used to predict the location of the QCD critical point in the QCD phase diagram, which was found to be within the reach of upcoming low energy heavy ion collisions. The lowest quasinormal modes of the $SO(3)$ rotationally invariant quintuplet, triplet, and singlet channels evaluated in the present work provide upper bounds for characteristic equilibration times describing how fast the dense medium returns to thermal equilibrium after being subjected to small disturbances. We find that the equilibration times in the different channels come closer to each other at high temperatures, although being well separated at the critical point. Moreover, in most cases, these equilibration times decrease with increasing baryon chemical potential while keeping temperature fixed.

description: We propose a generalization of Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) that has internal degrees of freedom described by an affine Lie superalgebra. We give a general formulation of SLE corresponding to representation theory of an affine Lie superalgebra whose underlying finite dimensional Lie superalgebra is basic classical type, and write down stochastic differential equations on internal degrees of freedom in case that the corresponding affine Lie superalgebra is $\widehat{\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)}$. We also demonstrate computation of local martingales associated with the solution from a representation of $\widehat{\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)}$.

description: The scalability of stochastic gradient MCMC algorithms has made them increasingly important for Bayesian analysis of big data. However, these algorithms are prone to get- ting trapped in local energy minima. One effective way to address this local trap issue is by involving a population of Markov chains to interact with each other, so that the global information is visible to the local chains, and therefore able to assist them getting out from the local traps. Two novel algorithms are proposed here: the evolutionary stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (ESGLD) and the local Stochastic Particle-Optimization Sampling (LSPOS). ESGLD operates with a population of Markov chains, each at a different temper- ature, and these chains interact through a snooker operator. The snooker operator performs a short run of SGLD along the line connecting the current sample to a selected anchor point. As long as a mode is located by other chains in the population, the target chain can transition to it by running the snooker operator, particularly when the mode is sharp and well-separated from others. The snooker operator enables the Markov chain to effectively escape local traps while maintaining invariance with respect to the target distribution. This significantly accelerates convergence, especially when the energy landscape is rugged. The LSPOS is an improvement made on Stochastic Particle-Optimization Sampling (SPOS). In SPOS, each chain in the population runs with SGLD plus an interaction through the Stein variation operator. This operator guarantees the unbiasedness of the sample distribution to the target distribution. The usually used kernel function in the Stein variation operator in the SPOS is the radial based kernel function (RBF). In LSPOS, this kernel function is instead chosen to be a local truncation of the RBF. This change confines the interactions to only the neighborhood chains, and prevents a chain to learn from those distant chains that has fundamentally different local geometry, which doesn’t help and sometimes even impedes the chain to escape the local trap. We provide theoretical guarantees for the convergence of the ESGLD and LSPOS algorithms, and demonstrate their numerical effectiveness through simulated and real data examples.
