Maximum a Posteriori State Path Estimation: Discretization Limits and their Interpretation

description: Continuous-discrete models with dynamics described by stochastic differential equations are used in a wide variety of applications. For these systems, the maximum a posteriori (MAP) state path can be defined as the curves around which lie the infinitesimal tubes with greatest posterior probability, which can be found by maximizing a merit function built upon the Onsager--Machlup functional. A common approach used in the engineering literature to obtain the MAP state path is to discretize the dynamics and obtain the MAP state path for the discretized system. In this paper, we prove that if the trapezoidal scheme is used for discretization, then the discretized MAP state path estimation converges hypographically to the continuous-discrete MAP state path estimation as the discretization gets finer. However, if the stochastic Euler scheme is used instead, then the discretized estimation converges to the minimum energy estimation. The minimum energy estimates are, in turn, proved to be the state paths associated with the MAP noise paths, which in some cases differ from the MAP state paths. Therefore, the discretized MAP state paths can have different interpretations depending on the discretization scheme used.

Lacking Causes Privative Causality from Locke and Kant to Lacan and Deacon
Creators: name: Johnston, Adrian
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2015

description: From Alexandre Koyré in the middle of the twentieth century to Quentin Meillassoux today, much of French epistemol-ogy and philosophy of science has relied upon a one-sided neo-rationalist appropriation of the Galilean distinction between primary and secondary qualities1 (a neo-rationalism indefensibly ignoring Baconian empiricism, with the latter’s emphasis on methodical observation and experimentation as essential to scientificity in the modern sense).  The very phrasing of this distinction legible in Galileo Galilei’s 1623 text “The Assayer” is to be found in another canonical work of the early modern period:  British empiricist John Locke’s hulking 1690 tome An Essay Concerning Human Understand-ing.  Locke takes up the matter of primary and secondary qualities in “Chapter Eight” (“Some Further Considerations Concerning Our Simple Ideas of Sensation”) of “Book Two” (“Of Ideas”).

Review Essay on Fernando Zalamea's Synthetic Philosophy of Contemporary Mathematics
Creators: name: Longo, Giuseppe
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2015

description: Zalamea’s book is as original as it is belated. It is indeed sur-prising, if we give it a moment’s thought, just how greatly behind schedule philosophical reflection on contemporary mathematics lags, especially considering the momentous changes that took place in the second half of the twentieth century. Zalamea compares this situation with that of the philosophy of physics: he mentions D’Espagnat’s work on quantum mechanics, but we could add several others who, in the last few decades, have elaborated an extremely timely philosophy of contemporary physics (see for example Bitbol 2000; Bitbol et al. 2009). As was the case in biology, philosophy – since Kant’s crucial observations in the Critique of Judgment, at least – has often “run ahead” of life sciences, exploring and opening up a space for reflections that are not derived from or integrated with its contemporary scientific practice. Some of these reflections are still very much auspicious today. And indeed, some philosophers today are saying something truly new about biology.

description: Gardening is an activity that involves a number of dimensions of increasing interest to HCI and CSCW researchers, including recreation, sustainability, and engagement with nature. This paper considers the garden setting in order to understand the role that collaborative and social computing technologies might play for practitioners engaging in outdoor skilled activities. We conducted participant observations with nine experienced gardeners aged 22-71 years. Through this process, we find that gardeners continuously configure their environments to accommodate their preferences for sociality. They share embodied skills and help others attune to sensory information in person, but also influence learning through the features in their garden that are observed by others. This paper provides an understanding of sociality in the garden, highlights skill sharing as a key domain for design in this space, and contributes design considerations for collaborative technologies in outdoor settings.

title: Coronā Devī has entered the chat: South Asian goddesses associated with Covid-19, ritual practice, and online media discourse
Creators: name: Seibel, Thomas
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2023

description: Between June 2020 and September 2021, news reports from India detailing ritual practice devoted to goddesses associated with the novel coronavirus were published by both domestic and international media houses. This thesis analyzes discourses located within English-language media reports and online comments about these deities, associated practices, and devotees. It seeks to address the following questions: 1) How are questions of ‘authority’ and ‘authenticity’ vis-à-vis Hinduism discursively constructed? 2) How are discourses of ‘superstition’ differentially mobilized against groups and actors belonging to marginalized communities? 3) How do participants’ reported narratives and ritual practices reflect these concerns? Online criticism of ritual participants is found to be situated within two broad and antagonistic discourses: Hindu nationalist discourses concerned with defending ‘true’ Hinduism from outside critique and secular rationalist discourses. Meanwhile, participant narratives situate practices both within preexisting traditions of goddesses associated with disease and as responses to novel challenges presented by the Covid-19 pandemic. Additionally, themes of economic insecurity, relationships between religion and science, and expressions of collective concern are reflected by both critics and participants in various ways. Finally, the notable absence and structural exclusion of ritualists from online participatory discourse challenges naïve assumptions regarding democratic access to online religious expression.
Answer to Giuseppe Longo

Year: 2015

description: To begin with, I must thank Longo for his unusual generosity. It is extremely rare for someone to write such a lengthy commentary, while correctly highlighting a monograph’s central ideas and, on top of that, to place them within a myriad of alternative mathematical considerations. And if that wasn’t enough, Longo’s subtle, critical and ana-lytic scrutiny of what concerns my text Synthetic Philosophy of Contemporary Mathematics extends to the scope of a synthetic vision that encompasses the mathematics of biology. In many senses, Longo’s remarks deserve to be understood then really as an appendix to my book which opens it, densely and broadly, to both the natural and mathematical worlds.
Review of Christopher Norris, Derrida, Badiou and the Formal Imperative
Creators: name: Livingston, Paul
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2015

description: Do “we” need, today, a rap-prochement between analytic and “continental” philosophy?  If so, from what philosophical and critical imperatives does such a need arise, and to what kinds of actual problems, political and social as well as theoretical, should it respond?  Might giving a critical response to contemporary social and political problems require remapping familiar division lines between the analytic and continental traditions, sometimes in ways that will initially appear surprising and unfamiliar to those convinced of the legitimacy of the old traditional boundaries?   To what extent might this require a creative rethinking of the boundaries and structural implications of formalism and of the kind of formalizing project so char-acteristic of one strand of the analytic tradition?  And who might be the “we” (mentioned in the first question) that could emerge from such a critical remapping of methodological and thematic territories, as inheritors of the legacy of both traditions in twentieth century philosophy and practitioners of a new kind of philosophy drawing on the best resources of both?  These are some of the questions raised by Christopher Norris’s useful and potentially important book, Derrida, Badiou and the Formal Imperative.  In particular, Norris makes the heterodox but ultimately convincing argument that the work of two of the most important contemporary and recent “continental” philosophers, Jacques Derrida and Alain Badiou, responds in both cases to a “formal” imperative by developing the implications of classical formal and logical structures to the “breaking point” of structurally inherent aporias and paradoxes.  It is at this structural breaking point that the possibility of transformative structural and politi-cal change opens up, and its identification and location in strict and rigorous accordance with the canons of traditional bivalent logic and with an unflinchingly realist ontology is therefore a cardinal task for contemporary philosophy in a critical mode.

Review of Simon O'Sullivan On the Production of Subjectivity
Creators: name: Bell, Jeff
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2015

description: Simon O’Sullivan’s excellent book sets out to do two important things. First, O’Sullivan swims upstream against a dominant current in contemporary continental thought by allowing for a key role for subjectiv-ity. With the shift away from the phenomenological subject in recent decades, along with more recent developments in speculative realism where the effort is to move beyond correlationism and thus the relationship between reality as it is in itself and as given to a subject, the result has been a general turn away from the subject. O’Sullivan agrees with most of the concerns that one finds expressed regarding the phenomenological subject, and his interests also bears strong affinities with the work of the speculative realists (O’Sullivan’s conclusion compares his project to the work of the leading speculative realists); however, and this is the second impor-tant thing O’Sullivan sets out to do, what is often missing in discussions of subjectivity is processual nature of the subject as a finite-infinite relation.
The Individual and Collective Effects of Exact Exchange and Dispersion Interactions on the Ab Initio Structure of Liquid Water

description: In this work, we report the results of a series of density functional theory (DFT) based ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations of ambient liquid water using a hierarchy of exchange-correlation (XC) functionals to investigate the individual and collective effects of exact exchange (Exx), via the PBE0 hybrid functional, non-local vdW/dispersion interactions, via a fully self-consistent density-dependent dispersion correction, and approximate nuclear quantum effects (aNQE), via a 30 K increase in the simulation temperature, on the microscopic structure of liquid water. Based on these AIMD simulations, we found that the collective inclusion of Exx, vdW, and aNQE as resulting from a large-scale AIMD simulation of (H$_2$O)$_{128}$ at the PBE0+vdW level of theory, significantly softens the structure of ambient liquid water and yields an oxygen-oxygen structure factor, $S_{\rm OO}(Q)$, and corresponding oxygen-oxygen radial distribution function, $g_{\rm OO}(r)$, that are now in quantitative agreement with the best available experimental data. This level of agreement between simulation and experiment as demonstrated herein originates from an increase in the relative population of water molecules in the interstitial region between the first and second coordination shells, a collective reorganization in the liquid phase which is facilitated by a weakening of the hydrogen bond strength by the use of the PBE0 hybrid XC functional, coupled with a relative stabilization of the resultant disordered liquid water configurations by the inclusion of non-local vdW/dispersion interactions.
Review of Patricia MacCormack, Posthuman Ethics: Embodiment and Cultural Theory
Creators: name: Stanescu, James
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2015

description: Early in Patricia MacCormack’s Posthuman Ethics: Embodiment and Cultural Theory, she explains “Posthuman Ethics could have been called Posthuman Bodies” (1). This switch, from ethics to bodies, is important. It lets the reader know that the book is not going to be concerned with a normative understanding of ethics. Instead, ethics here is a Spinozian ethics, in other words a moral physics, a relation-ship of bodies to each other and how they affect one another. If that is the ethics, the posthuman should be understood in two senses. First, it means a position that exists, as Cary Wolfe has put it, “both before and after humanism.”1 In this sense, MacCormack’s work should be read as part of a long line of posthumanist theory, including Donna Haraway’s “Cyborg Manifesto” and When Species Meet, N. Katharine Hayles How We Became Posthuman, Cary Wolfe’s What is Posthumanism?, and Rosi Braidotti’s The Posthuman. However, posthuman should also be understood as the ways that all sorts of bod-ies, including non-human ones, end up entangled in and with each other. In this sense, we can see Posthuman Ethics as being part of a continuation that includes Mel Chen’s Anima-cies, Beatriz Preciado’s Testo Junkie, and Jasbir Puar’s Terrorist Assemblages. MacCormack forces us into the vortex of what Felix Guattari has referred to as “affective contamination,” which is the process by which other beings “start to exist in you, in spite of you.”2 Thus, we are treated to examinations of our entanglements with art and inhuman ecstasy, tattoos and the skin, nonhuman animals, marvelous monsters, mystic queers, and the nation of the dead. So far, so good. But also, I am sure you are asking, how is this book new? Is this just another book of posthuman theory combined with the au-thor’s preferred more-than-human objects of inquiry? This is where things get interesting, because despite MacCormack’s protests, there is still a normative ethical argument that is slowly developed throughout the present work. MacCormack is concerned with how “regimes of signification” create and produce domination (94). What emerges, then, is an ethics that cuts to the very core of what it means to do philosophy and theory.

description: Filamentous fungi produce a wide range of relevant biotechnological compounds. The close relationship between fungal morphology and productivity has led to a variety of analytical methods to quantify their macromorphology. Nevertheless, only a µ-computed tomography (µ-CT) based method allows a detailed analysis of the 3D micromorphology of fungal pellets. However, the low sample throughput of a laboratory µ-CT limits the tracking of the micromorphological evolution of a statistically representative number of submerged cultivated fungal pellets over time. To meet this challenge, we applied synchrotron radiation-based X-ray microtomography at the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron [German Electron Synchrotron Research Center], resulting in 19,940 3D analyzed individual fungal pellets that were obtained from 26 sampling points during a 48 h Aspergillus niger submerged batch cultivation. For each of the pellets, we were able to determine micromorphological properties such as number and density of spores, tips, branching points, and hyphae. The computed data allowed us to monitor the growth of submerged cultivated fungal pellets in highly resolved 3D for the first time. The generated morphological database from synchrotron measurements can be used to understand, describe, and model the growth of filamentous fungal cultivations.

description: We present new HI spectral line imaging of the extremely metal-poor, star-forming dwarf irregular galaxy Leo P. Our HI images probe the global neutral gas properties and the local conditions of the interstellar medium (ISM). The HI morphology is slightly elongated along the optical major-axis. We do not find obvious signatures of interaction or infalling gas at large spatial scales. The neutral gas disk shows obvious rotation, although the velocity dispersion is comparable to the rotation velocity. The rotation amplitude is estimated to be V_c = 15 +/- 5 km/s. Within the HI radius probed by these observations, the mass ratio of gas to stars is roughly 2:1, while the ratio of the total mass to the baryonic mass is ~15:1. We use this information to place Leo P on the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation, testing the baryonic content of cosmic structures in a sparsely populated portion of parameter space that has hitherto been occupied primarily by dwarf spheroidal galaxies. We detect the signature of two temperature components in the neutral ISM of Leo P; the cold and warm components have characteristic velocity widths of 4.2 +/- 0.9 km/s and 10.1 +/- 1.2 km/s, corresponding to kinetic temperatures of ~1100 K and ~6200 K, respectively. The cold HI component is unresolved at a physical resolution of 200 pc. The highest HI surface densities are observed in close physical proximity to the single HII region. A comparison of the neutral gas properties of Leo P with other extremely metal-deficient (XMD) galaxies reveals that Leo P has the lowest neutral gas mass of any known XMD, and that the dynamical mass of Leo P is more than two orders of magnitude smaller than any known XMD with comparable metallicity.

description: Cosmological simulations of galaxies have typically produced too many stars at early times. We study the global and morphological effects of radiation pressure (RP) in eight pairs of high-resolution cosmological galaxy formation simulations. We find that the additional feedback suppresses star formation globally by a factor of ~2. Despite this reduction, the simulations still overproduce stars by a factor of ~2 with respect to the predictions provided by abundance matching methods for halos more massive than 5E11 Msun/h (Behroozi, Wechsler & Conroy 2013). We also study the morphological impact of radiation pressure on our simulations. In simulations with RP the average number of low mass clumps falls dramatically. Only clumps with stellar masses Mclump/Mdisk <= 5% are impacted by the inclusion of RP, and RP and no-RP clump counts above this range are comparable. The inclusion of RP depresses the contrast ratios of clumps by factors of a few for clump masses less than 5% of the disk masses. For more massive clumps, the differences between and RP and no-RP simulations diminish. We note however, that the simulations analyzed have disk stellar masses below about 2E10 Msun/h. By creating mock Hubble Space Telescope observations we find that the number of clumps is slightly reduced in simulations with RP. However, since massive clumps survive the inclusion of RP and are found in our mock observations, we do not find a disagreement between simulations of our clumpy galaxies and observations of clumpy galaxies. We demonstrate that clumps found in any single gas, stellar, or mock observation image are not necessarily clumps found in another map, and that there are few clumps common to multiple maps.

description: Immersion optics enable creation of systems with improved optical concentration and coupling by taking advantage of the fact that the luminance of light is proportional to the square of the refractive index in a lossless optical system. Immersion graded index optical concentrators, that do not need to track the source, are described in terms of theory, simulations, and experiments. We introduce a generalized design guide equation which follows the Pareto function and can be used to create various immersion graded index optics depending on the application requirements of concentration, refractive index, height, and efficiency. We present glass and polymer fabrication techniques for creating broadband transparent graded index materials with large refractive index ranges, (refractive index ratio)^2 of ~2, going many fold beyond what is seen in nature or the optics industry. The prototypes demonstrate 3x optical concentration with over 90% efficiency. We report via functional prototypes that graded-index-lens concentrators perform close to the theoretical maximum limit and we introduce simple, inexpensive, design-flexible, and scalable fabrication techniques for their implementation.

description: In  the  spring  of  2013,  we  were  invited  to  propose  a  possible  session  for  the  Shakespeare  Association  of  America  meeting  in  St.  Louis  for  2014.  The  SAA  is  an  organization  that,  in  addition  to  running  paper  panels at its annul conference, offers participants the opportunity to share work-in-progress  through  themed  seminars.  The  two  of  us  had  been  in  conversation  for  some  time  about  nonhumans,  things,  animal,  vegetable,  and  mineral,  medieval  and  renaissance,  about  questions  of  ecology,  and  how  to  craft  nontraditional  conversation  and  thinking  spaces  in  which  something  unanticipated  might  unfold.  We  decided  to  collaborate  to  build  a  gathering  that  would  bring  together  these  interests,  objects,  and  possibilities  for  eventuation.  The  title  of  the  seminar  we  proposed  was  “Object-Oriented  Environs  in  Early  Modern  England,”  which  took  its  cue  from  the  philosophical  movement  called  Object-Oriented  Ontology  (frequently  abbreviated  to  OOO)  in  the  hope  of  provoking  a  conversation  about  how  early  modernists,  or  humanists  in  general,  parse  the  question  of matter, of things. We called the collocation OOE @ SAA.

description: King  Lear  and  video  games  have  something  in  common.  In  most  massively  multiplayer  online  role  playing  games  (MMORPGs)  a  player’s  character  dies,  but  it  isn’t  permanent.  For  a  moment  after  death,  a  player  stares  into  her  computer  screen  at  her  own  corpse,  her  removed  first-per-son  perspective  hovering  over  it,  still  attached  to  but  disembodied  from  the  avatar  that  allows  her  to  experience  the  virtual  space  of  the  game.  In  this moment, the player knows she is dependent on that object, the body/corpse, that she has been forcibly separated from. The corpse’s existence is no longer fully dependent on the player. In this moment, the video game player  who  is  housed  in  the  avatar,  in  the  player  character,  becomes  an  audience  to  her  own  corpse.  She’s  watching  the  story  of  flesh  in  digital  form.  The  unreal  creates  an  actual  agential  demise  of  the  player,  at  least  momentarily.

description: We report on the lasing action of atmospheric air pumped by an 800 nm femtosecond laser pulse with peak power up to 4 TW. Lasing emission at 428 nm increases rapidly over a small range of pump laser power, followed by saturation above ~ 1.5 TW. The maximum lasing pulse energy is measured to be 2.6 uJ corresponding to an emission power in the MW range, while a maximum conversion efficiency of is measured at moderate pump pulse energy. The optical gain inside the filament plasma is estimated to be excess of 0.7/cm. The lasing emission shows a doughnut profile, reflecting the spatial distribution of the pump-generated white-light continuum that acts as a seed for the lasing. We attribute the pronounced saturation to the defocusing of the seed in the plasma amplifying region and to the saturation of the seed intensity.

description: We investigate the non-linear dynamics of a two-dimensional film flowing down a finite heater, for a non-volatile and a volatile liquid. An oscillatory instability is predicted beyond a critical value of Marangoni number using linear stability theory. Continuation along the Marangoni number using non-linear evolution equation is used to trace bifurcation diagram associated with the oscillatory instability. Hysteresis, a characteristic attribute of a sub-critical Hopf bifurcation, is observed in a critical parametric region. The bifurcation is universally observed for both, a non-volatile film and a volatile film.

description: We use supershadow methods to derive new expressions for superconformal blocks in 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theories. We analyze the four-point function $\langle\mathcal{A}_1 \mathcal{A}_2^\dagger \mathcal{B}_1 \mathcal{B}_2^\dagger\rangle$, where $\mathcal{A}_i$ and $\mathcal{B}_i$ are scalar superconformal primary operators with arbitrary dimension and $R$-charge and the exchanged operator is neutral under $R$-symmetry. Previously studied superconformal blocks for chiral operators and conserved currents are special cases of our general results.

Warm Bodies in Plague and Shakespeare's "Womb of Death"

Publisher: name: punctum books

description: This  humanoid  stick  figure  in  profile  (see  figure  1,  next  page)is  the  image  used  for  Wikipedia’s  entry  “Plague  (disease).”2  The  uncanny  resemblance  to  a  human  highlights  the  zombie-like  objectness  of  the  microbe:  it  is  alive,  like  a  human,  but  it  is  also  essentially  an  immobile  object;  its  movements  are  as  imperceptibly  microscopic  as  it  is.  Further,  plague seems to cross the territory between life and death: it returns after years,  even  centuries,  of  dormancy—seemingly  absent  after  the  eighth  century Justinian y.  pestis outbreak only to remerge with even more viru-lence in the fourteenth century as the Black Death. Its very nature seems to  invite  us  to  think  of  plague  as  both  alive  and  dead;  incapable  of  chas-ing  its  prey,  plague  spreads  and  kills  with  terrifying  efficiency  whenever  it  rises  from  its  own  grave-like  dormancy.  This  slightly  altered  image  of  Figure   1   neatly   conjoins   the   plague   object  with  the  human,  and  together  they  engender  an  environs  populated  by  the  living  humans,  the  still-living  soon to be “corpse” of the infected, and the  ever  growing  population  of  dead  objects.

description: Like  the  gait  of  one  unfamiliar  with  walking  in  stiletto  heels,  the  two  parts  of  this  essay  move,  at  times  arhythmically,  between  explo-rations  of  objects  in  environments.  Part  one  embeds  the  shoe  in  human-centric  environments  as  an  instrument  that’s  used  as  much  to  displace  particular autopoietic systems as it is to display others.1 Part two embeds the  human  in  ontic  environs,2  in  the  triangulation  of  semantic  disclo-sure,  withdrawal,  and  density  in  the  shoe-dog-human  network  in  act  2,  scene  3,  of  William  Shakespeare’s  The Two Gentlemen of Verona.  My  pur-pose  is  to  apply  the  language  and  architecture  of  speculative  realism  to  consider  both  the  gaps  in  knowledge  and  the  interplay  of  objects  as  yet  underexplored  in  historicist  critical  engagement.  The  strategic  ahistori-cism  employed  by  OOO  I  adopt  here  enables  me  to  wander  and  “wonder  unburdened”  among  objects  and  environments  in  a  manner  that  is,3  not  unlike  the  precariousness  of  some  shoes,  at  once  alluring  and  promiscu-ous in its embrace of instability.
Eye and Book: Species and Spectacle
Creators: name: Reid, Pauline
Publisher: name: punctum books

description: My things, the eye and the book, uneasily transgress the boundary between  objects  and  media.  Following  Bruno  Latour’s  call  to  investigate  the  ways  objects  “block,  render  possible,”  or  “forbid”  rather  than  merely  structure our experiences, this essay explores how visual perception com-plicated  early  modern  encounters  with  the  book  as  object.1  I  situate  the  relation between eye and book within a historically specific early modern material and intellectual environment. Material things shape, to cite gra-ham  Harman,  how  we  perceive  perception.  Even  so,  our  cultural  models  of  perception  necessarily  color  how  we  approach  these  things.  A  focus  on  objects’  environs  implies  an  ecological,  networked  reading  of  objects  and,  I  would  argue,  a  historical  one.  Historical  phenomenology  can  link  objects  with  their  temporal  as  well  as  spatial  environs.  Rather  than  fol-lowing  Husserl  and  Heidegger’s  model  of  a  transcendent  human  con-sciousness  that  intentionally  “brackets”  off  the  object  from  its  environs,  I  here  adopt  phenomenology  as  a  method  for  discovering  co-habitations  and  disturbances  between  body  and  object.  Traditional  phenomenology  often  removes  perception  from  a  historical  and  spatial  index  in  order  to  determine first principles. Instead, as I will explore with the eye, the body manifested  as  part  of  a  network  of  objects  that  continuously  patterned  and altered perception in early modern thought. This characterization of the human body and its parts as objects as well as perceptual media draws in  part  from  Rosalyn  Diprose’s  claim  that  phenomenology  acts  as  an  “interworld” between the human body and the external object,2 as well as from  Sarah  Ahmed’s  claim  that  objects  and  spaces  “impress”  themselves  on the body to the point where they become a “second skin.”3 Perception is  here  not  transcendent,  but  physically  situated;  the  percipient-object  relationship is not static, but mutually dynamic.
Periodic and Hyperbolic Soliton Solutions of a Number of Nonlocal PT-Symmetric Nonlinear Equations

description: For a number of nonlocal nonlinear equations such as nonlocal, nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE), nonlocal Ablowitz-Ladik (AL), nonlocal, saturable discrete NLSE (DNLSE), coupled nonlocal NLSE, coupled nonlocal AL and coupled nonlocal, saturable DNLSE, we obtain periodic solutions in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions as well as the corresponding hyperbolic soliton solutions. Remarkably, in all the six cases, we find that unlike the corresponding local cases, all the nonlocal models simultaneously admit both the bright and the dark soliton solutions. Further, in all the six cases, not only $\dn(x,m)$ and $\cn(x,m)$ but even their linear superposition is shown to be an exact solution. Finally, we show that the coupled nonlocal NLSE not only admits solutions in terms of Lamé polynomials of order 1, but it also admits solutions in terms of Lamé polynomials of order 2, even though they are not the solutions of the uncoupled nonlocal problem. We also remark on the possible integrability in certain cases.

description: Abstract: Material extrusion is the most widespread additive manufacturing method but its application in end-use products is limited by vulnerability to errors. Humans can detect errors but cannot provide continuous monitoring or real-time correction. Existing automated approaches are not generalisable across different parts, materials, and printing systems. We train a multi-head neural network using images automatically labelled by deviation from optimal printing parameters. The automation of data acquisition and labelling allows the generation of a large and varied extrusion 3D printing dataset, containing 1.2 million images from 192 different parts labelled with printing parameters. The thus trained neural network, alongside a control loop, enables real-time detection and rapid correction of diverse errors that is effective across many different 2D and 3D geometries, materials, printers, toolpaths, and even extrusion methods. We additionally create visualisations of the network’s predictions to shed light on how it makes decisions.
