description: The Inhibitor of Apoptosis (IAP) proteins are a highly conserved group of anti-apoptotic proteins. Cellular IAP 1 and 2 (cIAP1 and 2) are two members of the IAP protein family that regulate the activity of the Nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) transcription factor family. The role and mechanism of the IAPs in ubiquitination are not yet completely understood due to the complexity of this posttranslational modification process. Additionally, The IAPs are involved in a myriad of cellular processes, and many of the process-specific mechanisms by which the IAPs are involved is unknown. I aim to delve deeper into the signalling pathways that are controlled by cIAP1 and cIAP2 by discovering currently unknown protein-protein interactions. In doing so, I will determine which proteins interact with the cIAPs and what signalling pathways these proteins are involved in. Using a BioID approach, I sought to characterize the cIAP1 interactors involved in the canonical and non-canonical NF-κB pathways. I generated a stable cell line expressing TurboID-cIAP1 fusion protein in HEK 293T cells that expressTurboID-cIAP1 at levels comparable to endogenous cIAP1. I identified multiple potential cIAP1 interactors that have ties to the NF-κB pathway. These proteins regulate NF-κB signalling in multiple ways including influencing acetylation and nuclear retention of the NF-κB transcription factors, phosphorylation of NF-κB transcription factors, and RNA splicing of genes involved in the TNFR1 complex I. Further work needs to be done to confirm these interactions and to discover the mechanisms by which these interactions occur. NF-κB signalling is known to have widespread function within the cell and within diseases such as cancer; it will be beneficial to study these interactions to better understand how cancer develops and how to treat it best, especially in patients with a poor prognosis.

description: We explore superradiance for Alfvén waves (Alfvénic superradiance) in an axisymmetric rotating magnetosphere of a Kerr black hole within the force-free approximation. On the equatorial plane of the Kerr spacetime, the Alfvén wave equation is reduced to a one-dimensional Schrödinger-type equation by separating variables of the wave function and introducing a tortoise coordinate mapping the inner and outer light surfaces to $-\infty$ and $+\infty$, respectively, and we investigate a wave scattering problem for Alfvén waves. An analysis of the asymptotic solutions of the wave equation and the conservation of the Wronskian give the superradiant condition for Alfvén waves, and it will be shown that the condition coincides with that for the Blandford-Znajek process. This means that when Alfvénic superradiance occurs, the Blandford-Znajek process also occurs in the force-free magnetosphere. Then, we evaluate the reflection rate of Alfvén waves numerically and confirm that Alfvénic superradiance is indeed possible in the Kerr spacetime. Moreover, we will discuss a resonant scattering of Alfvén waves, which is related to a "quasinormal mode" of the magnetosphere.

description: We demonstrate the realization of nearly massless electrons in the most widely used device material, silicon, at the interface with a metal film. Using angle-resolved photoemission, we found that the surface band of a monolayer lead film drives a hole band of the Si inversion layer formed at the interface with the film to have nearly linear dispersion with an effective mass about 20 times lighter than bulk Si and comparable to graphene. The reduction of mass can be accounted for by repulsive interaction between neighboring bands of the metal film and Si substrate. Our result suggests a promising way to take advantage of massless carriers in silicon-based thin-film devices, which can also be applied for various other semiconductor devices.

description: Several phase separated manganites present a peculiar effect each time they go through a phase transition within the range characterized by phase separation. The effect is known as the thermal cycling effect(TCE) and is characterized by monotonous changes in the relative content of the coexisting phases. In this work, we analyze a way to control the effects induced by TCE, performing thermal treatments at high temperature. Our results revealed a complex interplay between the dynamic and static characteristics of the phase separated state, which can be analyzed in terms of three simple parameters. One related to the static properties, another to the dynamic properties and a last one that acts as a link between both features.

Identification of qualitative and quantitative features in wide-field in vivo oral optical coherence tomography.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Optical coherence tomography (OCT), the optical analogue of ultrasound with resolution approaching that of histology, has shown great potential in the detection of pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions in the oral cavity. The objective of this thesis is to identify qualitative and quantitative features from OCT that are associated with normal, benign, pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions. In this work, OCT images were acquired from patients in vivo during their visits to the oral pathology clinic. The data were then analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. In the qualitative analysis, structural changes in tissue, associated with abnormalities, were compared and matched between their appearance in OCT and the corresponding histology images. In the quantitative analysis, MATLAB was used to automate extraction of numerical values associated with the structural changes, present in the OCT images. As a result of the qualitative analysis, it was found that a set of five features — epithelium thickness, epithelium stratification, rete-ridges visibility, basement membrane presence, and connective tissue appearance relative to the epithelium — can together qualitatively help to identify normal as well as various benign, pre-cancerous and cancerous conditions. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time that epithelium stratification and high-resolution rete-ridges visibility have been presented as OCT features relevant for cancer detection. Furthermore, quantitative analysis revealed that the numerical values of two of the features — epithelium thickness and stratification — significantly vary going from normal tissue to benign and finally to pre-cancers and cancer. As a result, this work lays the ground work for showing the potential of OCT as a biopsy guidance tool, that can be used in vivo, to find regions of severe abnormalities and thus minimize multiple and unnecessary biopsies.

description: Due to its conceptual simplicity and its proven effectiveness in real-time detection and removal of radio frequency interference (RFI) from radio astronomy data, the Spectral Kurtosis (SK) estimator is likely to become a standard tool of a new generation of radio telescopes. However, the SK estimator in its original form must be developed from instantaneous power spectral density (PSD) estimates, and hence cannot be employed as an RFI excision tool downstream of the data pipeline in existing instruments where any time averaging is performed. In this letter, we develop a generalized estimator with wider applicability for both instantaneous and averaged spectral data, which extends its practical use to a much larger pool of radio instruments.

description: In high dimensions, reflective Hamiltonian Monte Carlo with inexact reflections exhibits slow mixing when the particle ensemble is initialised from a Dirac delta distribution and the uniform distribution is targeted. By quantifying the instantaneous non-uniformity of the distribution with the Sinkhorn divergence, we elucidate the principal mechanisms underlying the mixing problems. In spheres and cubes, we show that the collective motion transitions between fluid-like and discretisation-dominated behaviour, with the critical step size scaling as a power law in the dimension. In both regimes, the particles can spontaneously unmix, leading to resonances in the particle density and the aforementioned problems. Additionally, low-dimensional toy models of the dynamics are constructed which reproduce the dominant features of the high-dimensional problem. Finally, the dynamics is contrasted with the exact Hamiltonian particle flow and tuning practices are discussed.

description: Focusing on nineteenth century literature in England, this paper explores the relationship of fairy tales to the realist novel. Even though the novels of the time are best known for being grounded firmly in realism, the world of fairies, existing most prominently in nineteenth-century children's literature, crept into novels and stories written for adults. The novel Jane Eyre, frequently discussed regarding its treatment of nineteenth century social issues, contains gothic and romantic elements alongside the realist mode. These elements contribute to a "transformation" of the text into a fairy tale. The novel becomes a fairy tale not in structure alone, but in the very nature of the work. As a fairy tale for adults, Bronte's novel provides discourse on the same issues as the fairy tales written supposedly for children by Christina Rossetti, George MacDonald, and Mary de Morgan. This project explores these similarities in social purpose, and how they were subversive to the nineteenth-century domestic realist mode. The genre lines which separate realist fiction and fairy tales blur as the two strive for the same ends.

The areas explored include how Victorian fairy tales and the novel Jane Eyre both achieve the same ends in relationship to childhood, gender, and romantic relationships. The primary texts, written by both men and women, not only share elements of the fairy tale, but also engage in similar social discourse.

description: There is much debate on how public participation and expertise can be brought together in collaborative knowledge environments. One of the experiments addressing the issue directly is Citizendium. In seeking to harvest the strengths (and avoiding the major pitfalls) of both user-generated wiki projects and traditional expert-approved reference works, it is a wiki to which anybody can contribute using their real names, while those with specific expertise are given a special role in assessing the quality of content. Upon fulfillment of a set of criteria like factual and linguistic accuracy, lack of bias, and readability by non-specialists, these entries are forked into two versions: a stable (and thus citable) approved "cluster" (an article with subpages providing supplementary information) and a draft version, the latter to allow for further development and updates. We provide an overview of how Citizendium is structured and what it offers to the open knowledge communities, particularly to those engaged in education and research. Special attention will be paid to the structures and processes put in place to provide for transparent governance, to encourage collaboration, to resolve disputes in a civil manner and by taking into account expert opinions, and to facilitate navigation of the site and contextualization of its contents.

Orbital-Selective Superconductivity and the Effect of Lattice Distortion in Iron-Based Superconductors

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The superconducting (SC) state of iron-based compounds in both tetragonal and orthorhombic phases is studied on the basis of an effective Hamiltonian composed of the kinetic energy including the five Fe 3d-orbitals, the orthorhombic crystalline electric field (CEF) energy, and the two-orbital Kugel'-Khomskiĭ-type superexchange interaction. Our basic assumption is that the antiferromagnetic (AF) state in the parent compounds can be described by the $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals, and that the electrons in these orbitals have relatively strong electron correlation in the vicinity of the AF state. In order to study the physical origin of the structure-sensitive SC transition temperature, the effect of orthorhombic distortion is taken into account as the energy-splitting, $Δ_{\textrm{ortho.}}$, between the $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals. We find that the eigenvalue of the linearized gap equation decreases accompanied with the reduction of the partial density of states for the $d_{xz}$ and $d_{yz}$ orbitals as $Δ_{\textrm{ortho.}}$ increases, and that the dominant pairing symmetry is an unconventional fully gapped $s_{+-}$-wave pairing. We also find large anisotropy of the SC gap function in the orthorhombic phase. We propose that the CEF energy plays an important role in controlling $T_{\textrm{c}}$ and the SC gap function, and that orbital-selective superconductivity is a key feature in iron-based superconductors, which causes the structure-sensitive $T_{\textrm{c}}$.

LRG-BEASTS: sodium absorption and Rayleigh slope in the atmosphere of WASP-94A b using NTT/EFOSC2
Creators: name: Ahrer, Eva-Maria
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: We present the first spectroscopic study of an exoplanet atmosphere using the EFOSC2 instrument on the New Technology Telescope (NTT). The obtained transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-94Ab in the optical wavelength range (3800 - 7140 A) suggests a sodium absorption in the atmosphere of WASP-94Ab, implying a fairly clear atmosphere. In addition, we observe a slope in the blue end of the transmission spectrum, indicating the presence of Rayleigh scattering.

 The WASP-94 system is a binary system, with both bright (Vmag ~ 10) F type stars hosting one confirmed hot Jupiter, where one of them, WASP-94Ab, is transiting. WASP-94Ab orbits its host star in a 4 day misaligned, retrograde orbit at a distance of 0.055 AU. It is an optimal target for transmission spectroscopy as it is reported to have an inflated radius of 1.7 Jupiter radii, a mass of 0.5 Jupiter masses and an equilibrium temperature of 1500 K. However, no atmospheric studies have been published to date.

 These results demonstrate that the NTT/EFOSC2 is able to characterise exoplanet atmospheres, achieving the necessary precisions with errors of less than one atmospheric scale height.

description: In pathology and legal medicine, the histopathological and microbiological analysis of tissue samples from infected deceased is a valuable information for developing treatment strategies during a pandemic such as COVID-19. However, a conventional autopsy carries the risk of disease transmission and may be rejected by relatives. We propose minimally invasive biopsy with robot assistance under CT guidance to minimize the risk of disease transmission during tissue sampling and to improve accuracy. A flexible robotic system for biopsy sampling is presented, which is applied to human corpses placed inside protective body bags. An automatic planning and decision system estimates optimal insertion point. Heat maps projected onto the segmented skin visualize the distance and angle of insertions and estimate the minimum cost of a puncture while avoiding bone collisions. Further, we test multiple insertion paths concerning feasibility and collisions. A custom end effector is designed for inserting needles and extracting tissue samples under robotic guidance. Our robotic post-mortem biopsy (RPMB) system is evaluated in a study during the COVID-19 pandemic on 20 corpses and 10 tissue targets, 5 of them being infected with SARS-CoV-2. The mean planning time including robot path planning is (5.72+-1.67) s. Mean needle placement accuracy is (7.19+-4.22) mm.
title: DEPRECATED: Stakeholder approach to the segmentation of the short haul business air travel market
Creators: name: Mason, Keith John
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1995

description: The marketing literature deals inadequately with markets which show characteristics of both consumer and industrial markets. In this work such markets are called hybrid markets. The research attempts to find an appropriate research approach for the short haul business related air travel market, which has hybrid market characteristics. Recent studies of the business travel market (Stephenson and Fox, 1987, Toh and Hu. 1988 and 1990) have investigated corporate and traveller attitude towards frequent flier programmes (see Glossary). However, as yet the airline marketing literature has not investigated the role the purchasing organisation (the employer of the traveller) has to play in a decision to purchase business related air travel. Market segmentation is selected as a suitable tool to investigate the business travel market. However, a review of the literature on segmentation for both consumer and industrial products reveals that an approach suited to the characteristics of this market is not available. Consequently a two stage research approach for hybrid markets is developed. A case study of nine companies in the first stage of the research is used to develop an understanding of corporate involvement in the purchase of business air travel, and identifies three key stakeholder groups in the purchase. They are the traveller, the travel organiser, and the "organisation". The second stage of the research collects data on the stakeholders. Traveller data on the importance of product elements in the purchase are used in a benefit segmentation of the market. The attitude data from 827 business travellers is analysed by factor analysis to identify six principal purchase benefits. These six benefits account for 60.6% of the variance in the data. Six factor scores for each respondent are calculated and then investigated by ak means iterative partitioning cluster analysis. A robust three cluster solution is discovered; i. e. three benefit segments are present in the short haul business travel market, based on traveller attitude. Cross-validation tests are carried out to test the stability of this solution. The three segments are investigated to evaluate the influence in the purchase decision of other organisational stakeholders. Differences between segments are found in the travel policy of the employing organisation, class of travel allowed to travellers, and purchase behaviour. The research indicates that for hybrid markets such as business travel, the role of the employing organisation may be important in purchase decisions. Consequently, it is recommended that future reserach should assess corporate involvement in purchases of products that have both consumer and industrial elements. The evaluation of the influences of various stakeholder groups in purchase decisions in hybrid markets may reveal previously overlooked marketing opportunities.

description: We discuss the measurement of gluon transverse momentum distribution (TMD) in dijet and heavy hadron pair (HHP) production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering. The factorization of these processes in impact parameter space shows the appearance of a specific new soft factor matrix element on top of angular a complex valued anomalous dimensions. We show in detail how these features can be treated consistently and we discuss a scale prescription for the evolution kernel of the dijet soft function. As a result we obtain phenomenological predictions for unpolarized and angular modulated cross-sections for the electron-ion collider (EIC) using current available information on unpolarized TMD.

description: Parallel applications often rely on work stealing schedulers in combination with fine-grained tasking to achieve high performance and scalability. However, reducing the total energy consumption in the context of work stealing runtimes is still challenging, particularly when using asymmetric architectures with different types of CPU cores. A common approach for energy savings involves dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) wherein throttling is carried out based on factors like task parallelism, stealing relations and task criticality. This paper makes the following observations: (i) leveraging DVFS on a per-task basis is impractical when using fine-grained tasking and in environments with cluster/chip-level DVFS; (ii) task moldability, wherein a single task can execute on multiple threads/cores via work-sharing, can help to reduce energy consumption; and (iii) mismatch between tasks and assigned resources (i.e.~core type and number of cores) can detrimentally impact energy consumption. In this paper, we propose ERASE (EneRgy Aware SchedulEr), an intra-application task scheduler on top of work stealing runtimes that aims to reduce the total energy consumption of parallel applications. It achieves energy savings by guiding scheduling decisions based on per-task energy consumption predictions of different resource configurations. In addition, ERASE is capable of adapting to both given static frequency settings and externally controlled DVFS. Overall, ERASE achieves up to 31% energy savings and improves performance by 44% on average, compared to the state-of-the-art DVFS-based schedulers.

description: The Rajeev-Ranken (RR) model is a Hamiltonian system describing screw-type nonlinear waves of wavenumber $k$ in a scalar field theory pseudodual to the 1+1D SU(2) principal chiral model. Classically, the RR model is Liouville integrable. Here, we interpret the model as a novel 3D cylindrically symmetric quartic oscillator with an additional rotational energy. The quantum theory has two dimensionless parameters. Upon separating variables in the Schrödinger equation, we find that the radial equation has a four-term recurrence relation. It is of type $[0,1,1_6]$ and lies beyond the ellipsoidal Lamé and Heun equations in Ince's classification. At strong coupling $λ$, the energies of highly excited states are shown to depend on the scaling variable $λk$. The energy spectrum at weak coupling and its dependence on wavenumber $k$ in a double-scaling strong coupling limit are obtained. The semi-classical WKB quantization condition is expressed in terms of elliptic integrals. Numerical inversion enables us to establish a $(λk)^{2/3}$ dispersion relation for highly energetic quantized 'screwons' at moderate and strong coupling. We also suggest a mapping between our radial equation and one of Zinn-Justin and Jentschura that could facilitate a resurgent WKB expansion for energy levels. In another direction, we show that the equations of motion of the RR model can also be viewed as Euler equations for a step-3 nilpotent Lie algebra. We use our canonical quantization to uncover an infinite dimensional reducible unitary representation of this nilpotent algebra, which is then decomposed using its Casimir operators.

description: We have measured the low temperature electrical resistivity of Ag : Mn mesoscopic spin glasses prepared by ion implantation with a concentration of 700 ppm. As expected, we observe a clear maximum in the resistivity (T ) at a temperature in good agreement with theoretical predictions. Moreover, we observe remanence effects at very weak magnetic fields for the resistivity below the freezing temperature Tsg: upon Field Cooling (fc), we observe clear deviations of (T ) as compared with the Zero Field Cooling (zfc); such deviations appear even for very small magnetic fields, typically in the Gauss range. This onset of remanence for very weak magnetic fields is reminiscent of the typical signature on magnetic susceptibility measurements of the spin glass transition for this generic glassy system.

Joint modelling of complex longitudinal and survival data, with applications to HIV studies
Creators: name: Yu, Tingting
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: In HIV vaccine studies, a major research objective is to identify immune response biomarkers measured longitudinally that may be associated with risk of HIV infection. This objective can be assessed via joint modelling of longitudinal and survival data. Joint models for HIV vaccine data are complicated by the following issues: (i) left censoring of some longitudinal data due to lower limits of quantification; (ii) mixed types of longitudinal variables; (iii) measurement errors, missing values, and outliers in longitudinal data; and (iv) computational challenges associated with likelihood inference. In this thesis, we propose innovative joint models and methods for complex longitudinal and survival data to address the foregoing issues simultaneously. Specifically, we consider two approaches to handle left censored data and a robust method to address b-outliers and e-outliers in longitudinal data. For parameter estimation, we propose approximate likelihood estimation methods based on so-called h-likelihood, which are computationally much more efficient than “exact” or Monte Carlo methods such as Monte Carlo EM algorithms. We evaluate the performances of the models and methods via comprehensive simulation studies. Real data analyses are carried out in depth for a HIV vaccine study.

description: Les accidents du transport routier sont un problème de santé publique au Mali en général et en particulier, dans le District de Bamako. L'objectif de cette étude est d'analyser la communication auprès des populations pour une minimisation des cas d'accidents de transport routier dans le District de Bamako en vue de sensibiliser les usagers de la route à adopter des comportements citoyens. L'approche méthodologique s'est focalisée sur les recherches documentaires faites à partir des rapports, d'articles scientifiques, des thèses de Doctorat, des sites Internet. Elle a été aussi basée sur l'exploration de terrain auprès des usagers de la route et des personnes ressources en utilisant la méthode mixte. Un questionnaire a été adressé à 90 usagers de la route. Il a permis d'obtenir des données quantitatives. Quant à l'étude qualitative, nous avons fait un entretien semi-directif avec 2 agents de l'Agence Nationale de la Sécurité Routière, 2 agents de la police de la Compagnie de Circulation Routière, 2 agents de la Direction Générale des Transports, 1 agent de la santé et 4 travailleurs des sociétés de transport routier. Les résultats de l'étude montrent que les radios de proximité, les télévisions, les affiches publicitaires, les réseaux sociaux, les conférences-débats sont les différents moyens de communication auprès de la population bamakoise en vue d'une minimisation des accidents de transport routier. 87% des enquêtés pensent qu'il faut sensibiliser les usagers de la route à changer de comportement contre 13% pour les mesures de répression.

description: A total of 38 major Western European receivers participated in the study by providing trade and market preferences for packaging, handling, and product presentation features for 20 selected fresh fruits and vegetables. Specific preferences are described for type of shipping container, style, construction materials, size of container, and type of closure. Acceptable physical parameters for unitized handling features were determined. Generally, corrugated-fiberboard shipping containers were preferred. New weight per box preferred for most fruits was 5 kg, except for strawberries which was 3 kg per box. The preferred net weight per box for eggplant, green beans, green peppers, and tomatoes was 6 kg, whereas 10 to 15 kg was preferred for celery, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, and iceberg lettuce.

description: This paper aims to present the design rationale of a work in progress, the design of a set of spice containers. It will focus on to define and clarify the initial idea behind the design.

In a world of mass produced identical objects, customized products which reflect the choices of their users allow a better emotional dialogue. User customization helps to explore the experience the direct relation of emotions and their tangible reflections on a product.

In this study on the design of a set of spice containers, the very basic idea is to convert the senses into visual data and let the users to determine the final appearance of a product according to senses and emotional wishes.

The set is designed to be consist of opaque containers which are identical in shape and having no typography on them. The user is expected to add a portraiture photo shot in the moment of tasting the particular spice, used as a label or to choose a stock photograph from the web site of the project allowing the user to visualize the taste of spice with all his/her social emotional experiences. Every spice evoke different senses and resemble different emotions, so each user will have his/her own label on containers driven by its sense and emotions to indicate what the container contains.

description: The objective of this study was to identify and determine factors associated with patients’ ophthalmic adherence in common ocular conditions from randomized clinical trials (RCT). A univariate analysis with proportions, a bivariate analysis using polychoric correlations, and logistic regression (LR) models were used. The collected dataset was made up of records from RCT. Using three validated LR models, factors were identified and ranked based on their adjusted odds ratio and their statistical significance to adherence. A total of 1,087 valid patients were included in this analysis, of which 88.96% presented adherence. All models were calibrated, had a good performance, were well specified and cost-effective using the Hosmer–Lemeshow test, metrics for class imbalance, link test approach and Akaike’s criteriums, respectively. We identified as determinants for encouraging good ophthalmic adherence the adverse events presented, duration of the study, female sex, and older age; other determinants such as medical condition, protocol treatment, type of treatment and disease are all risk factors for adherence. Improvements in ophthalmic adherence may be achieved by focused attention to young male patients with chronic degenerative diseases such as glaucoma or ocular hypertension (especially those who need combination therapy) and developing medications with reduced side effects.

OH on the day-side of an ultra hot Jupiter, WASP-33b

description: High-resolution spectroscopy is one of the most successful methods to characterise exoplanet atmospheres. Due to the planetary orbital motion, the planetary lines can be distinguished from the telluric and stellar lines. By comparing hundreds/thousands of unique absorption/emission lines to model templates, the atomic/molecular signatures can be unambiguously identified and detected at high significance. I will share our recent detection of OH on the day side of WASP-33b using the InfraRed Doppler instrument on the Subaru telescope. Although it can be found in the atmosphere of Earth, Venus, Mars, and Saturn’s magnetosphere, this is the first known OH molecular signature in the atmosphere of an exoplanet. We also found evidence of weak H₂O emission which indicates a thermal-dissociation in the upper-atmosphere. Along with CO, OH is expected to be one of the most dominant O-bearing molecules in the atmosphere of ultra hot Jupiters. Additionally, we found that the strength of the H₂O signal depends on the line-list used in producing the spectral template.

description: A common need for artificial intelligence models in the broader geoscience is to represent and encode various types of spatial data, such as points (e.g., points of interest), polylines (e.g., trajectories), polygons (e.g., administrative regions), graphs (e.g., transportation networks), or rasters (e.g., remote sensing images), in a hidden embedding space so that they can be readily incorporated into deep learning models. One fundamental step is to encode a single point location into an embedding space, such that this embedding is learning-friendly for downstream machine learning models such as support vector machines and neural networks. We call this process location encoding. However, there lacks a systematic review on the concept of location encoding, its potential applications, and key challenges that need to be addressed. This paper aims to fill this gap. We first provide a formal definition of location encoding, and discuss the necessity of location encoding for GeoAI research from a machine learning perspective. Next, we provide a comprehensive survey and discussion about the current landscape of location encoding research. We classify location encoding models into different categories based on their inputs and encoding methods, and compare them based on whether they are parametric, multi-scale, distance preserving, and direction aware. We demonstrate that existing location encoding models can be unified under a shared formulation framework. We also discuss the application of location encoding for different types of spatial data. Finally, we point out several challenges in location encoding research that need to be solved in the future.

First-principles investigation of magnetism and electronic structures of substitutional $3d$ transition-metal impurities in bcc Fe

description: The magnetic and electronic structures of $3d$ impurity atoms from Sc to Zn in ferromagnetic body-centered cubic iron are investigated using the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method based on the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). We found that in general, the GGA results are closer to the experimental values than those of the local spin density approximation. The calculated formation enthalpy data indicate the importance of a systematic study on the ternary Fe-C-$X$ systems rather than the binary Fe-$X$ systems, in steel design. The lattice parameters are optimized and the conditions for spin polarization at the impurity sites are discussed in terms of the local Stoner model. Our calculations, which are consistent with previous work, imply that the local spin-polarizations at Sc, Ti, V, Cu, and Zn are induced by the host Fe atoms. The early transition-metal atoms couple antiferromagnetically, while the late transition-metal atoms couple ferromagnetically, to the host Fe atoms. The calculated total magnetization ($M$) of bcc Fe is reduced by impurity elements from Sc to Cr as a result of the antiferromagnetic interaction, with the opposite effect for solutes which couple ferromagnetically. The changes in $M$ are attributed to nearest neighbor interactions, mostly between the impurity and host atoms. The atom averaged magnetic moment is shown to follow generally the well-known Slater-Pauling curve, but our results do not follow the linearity of the Slater-Pauling curve. We attribute this discrepancy to the weak ferromagnetic nature of bcc Fe. The calculated Fermi contact hyperfine fields follow the trend of the local magnetic moments. The effect of spin-orbit coupling is found not to be significant although it comes into prominence at locations far from the impurity sites.
