description: Large AI models, or foundation models, are models recently emerging with massive scales both parameter-wise and data-wise, the magnitudes of which can reach beyond billions. Once pretrained, large AI models demonstrate impressive performance in various downstream tasks. A prime example is ChatGPT, whose capability has compelled people's imagination about the far-reaching influence that large AI models can have and their potential to transform different domains of our lives. In health informatics, the advent of large AI models has brought new paradigms for the design of methodologies. The scale of multi-modal data in the biomedical and health domain has been ever-expanding especially since the community embraced the era of deep learning, which provides the ground to develop, validate, and advance large AI models for breakthroughs in health-related areas. This article presents a comprehensive review of large AI models, from background to their applications. We identify seven key sectors in which large AI models are applicable and might have substantial influence, including 1) bioinformatics; 2) medical diagnosis; 3) medical imaging; 4) medical informatics; 5) medical education; 6) public health; and 7) medical robotics. We examine their challenges, followed by a critical discussion about potential future directions and pitfalls of large AI models in transforming the field of health informatics.

description: El cultivo de la yuca a través de la historia ha tenido gran importancia socio económica en las regiones tropicales del mundo, dado que se trata de una planta con alto grado de rusticidad, resistente a plagas y enfermedades, que permite adaptarse y alcanzar elevados niveles de productividad bajo adversas condiciones climáticas en suelos degradados, por lo cual se le considera como un cultivo tropical típico de pequeños y medianos productores, con recursos económicos muy limitados. En Colombia la producción de yuca se halla ampliamente dispersa a través de la geografía nacional, ubicándose principalmente en pisos térmicos entre 0 y 1.800 msnm. Tradicionalmente en el país la yuca se ha utilizado principalmente en la alimentación humana y en la fabricación de almidón, pero cada día aumenta el interés por utilizar este producto más intensivamente en la industria en general, por ejemplo; la yuca por su capacidad de sustituir a los granos, en la forma de yuca seca y harina, su menor precio y su alta calidad energética y aglutinante, se constituye en una alternativa importante para la fabricación de concentrados. El propósito de este trabajo es analizar la cadena productiva de la yuca en el departamento de Bolívar, para describir la situación actual, identificar las fallas que se presentan, detallar el proceso de producción, comercialización y transformación de la yuca, teniendo en cuenta variables que influyen en el comportamiento de la cadena.
Measurement of $W^{\pm}W^{\pm}$ vector-boson scattering and limits on anomalous quartic gauge couplings with the ATLAS detector

description: This paper presents the extended results of measurements of $W^{\pm}W^{\pm}jj$ production and limits on anomalous quartic gauge couplings using 20.3 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Events with two leptons ($e$ or $μ$) with the same electric charge and at least two jets are analyzed. Production cross-sections are determined in two fiducial regions, with different sensitivities to the electroweak and strong production mechanisms. An additional fiducial region, particularly sensitive to anomalous quartic gauge coupling parameters $α_4$ and $α_5$, is introduced, which allows more stringent limits on these parameters compared to the previous ATLAS measurement.

description: Spontaneous combustion (SponCom) has long been a major safety concern in longwall gobs. The main focus of this thesis is to better understand the mechanism of SponCom through combustion experiment using a newly developed testing method, which overcame the drawbacks of previous testing methods, and also to verify the combustion theory proposed in this thesis. In the end, firefighting methods based on study results and case studies were discussed to provide a comprehensive strategy for detection, prevention and protection of a potential SponCom.

description: A Legendrian link is called a déjà vu link if its components can be connected by a positive Legendrian isotopy but this isotopy cannot be embedded. This is the contact geometric analogue of a pair of events in a spacetime such that there are déjà vu moments on every future-directed timelike path between them. We construct déjà vu links in several geometrically relevant situations and discuss their basic properties.

description: A chain of magnetic impurities deposited on the surface of a superconductor can form a topological Shiba band that supports Majorana zero modes and holds a promise for topological quantum computing. Yet, most experiments scrutinizing these zero modes rely on transport measurements, which only capture local properties. Here we propose to leverage the intrinsic dynamics of the magnetic impurities to access their non-local character. We use linear response theory to determine the dynamics of the uniform magnonic mode in the presence of external $ac$ magnetic fields and coupling the Shiba electrons. We demonstrate that this mode, which spreads over the entire chain of atoms, becomes imprinted with the parity of the ground state and, moreover, can discriminate between Majorana and trivial zero modes located at the ends of the chain. Our approach offers a non-invasive alternative to the scanning tunneling microscopy techniques used to probe Majorana zero modes. Conversely, the magnons could facilitate the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in topological Shiba chains.

description: Extending Martín Escardó's effectful forcing technique, we give a new proof of a well-known result: Brouwer's monotone bar theorem holds for any bar that can be realized by a functional of type $(\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}) \to \mathbb{N}$ in Gödel's System T. Effectful forcing is an elementary alternative to standard sheaf-theoretic forcing arguments, using ideas from programming languages, including computational effects, monads, the algebra interpretation of call-by-name $λ$-calculus, and logical relations. Our argument proceeds by interpreting System T programs as well-founded dialogue trees whose nodes branch on a query to an oracle of type $\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$, lifted to higher type along a call-by-name translation. To connect this interpretation to the bar theorem, we then show that Brouwer's famous "mental constructions" of barhood constitute an invariant form of these dialogue trees in which queries to the oracle are made maximally and in order.

description: Dynamique des allocataires du RSA à Paris * Les auteurs adhèrent à la charte de déontologie du LIEPP disponible en ligne et n'ont déclaré aucun conflit d'intérêt potentiel. Par sa spécialisation dans le secteur des services marchands, le marché du travail à Paris a été particulièrement touché par la crise sanitaire, et a connu un retour à la normale moins rapide que le reste de la France. Cette spécificité se traduit dans les flux d'allocataires du RSA : le nombre d'allocataires connaît une croissance de 14% sur un an à Paris de novembre 2019 à novembre 2020 avant d'amorcer une décrue qui ne permet pas de revenir au niveau d'avant crise en 2021. Du fait des mesures d'urgences (activité partielle, prolongation des droits au chômage) la majorité des ménages a été protégée des effets immédiats de la crise et n'est pas entrée au RSA. Par contraste, les personnes qui n'étaient protégées ni par leur statut, ni par les mesures principales mesures d'urgence (travailleurs indépendants, chômeurs non indemnisés) ont été surreprésentées parmi les nouveaux allocataires. La désynchornisation inhabituelle entre les flux d'entrée et de sortie durant la crise, souligne que le nombre d'allocataires n'a pas seulement varié en fonction de la conjoncture, mais également du fait des interventions exceptionnelles des pouvoirs publics.

description: We introduce a paraconsistent expansion of the Gödel logic with a De Morgan negation $\neg$ and modalities $\blacksquare$ and $\blacklozenge$. We equip it with Kripke semantics on frames with two (possibly fuzzy) relations: $R^+$ and $R^-$ (interpreted as the degree of trust in affirmations and denials by a given source) and valuations $v_1$ and $v_2$ (positive and negative support) ranging over $[0,1]$ and connected via $\neg$. We motivate the semantics of $\blacksquareϕ$ (resp., $\blacklozengeϕ$) as infima (suprema) of both positive and negative supports of $ϕ$ in $R^+$- and $R^-$-accessible states, respectively. We then prove several instructive semantical properties of the logic. Finally, we devise a tableaux system for branching fragment and establish the complexity of satisfiability and validity.

Uniform Momentum Zones in Adverse Pressure Gradient Turbulent Boundary Layers
Creators: name: ASWIN THAVAMANI
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Mechanical Engineering
subject: FOS: Mechanical engineering

description: Wall-bounded turbulent flows have a hierarchy of organised motions called coherent structures. Understanding the behaviour of these coherent structures will contribute to improved turbulence modelling and the advancement in flow control strategies. Turbulent flows subjected to adverse pressure gradients (APG) are more commonly encountered in many engineering applications such as turbine blades, diffusers and aerofoils. This study elucidated the characteristics and geometrical properties of organised coherent structures characterised by uniform momentum zones (UMZs) in an APG turbulent boundary layers, providing insights into the behaviour of these zones under the influence of pressure gradient and thereby extending our knowledge in wall-bounded turbulent flows.
Choquet order and hyperrigidity for function systems

description: We establish a dilation-theoretic characterization of the Choquet order on the space of measures on a compact convex set using ideas from the theory of operator algebras. This yields an extension of Cartier's dilation theorem to the non-separable setting, as well as a non-separable version of Šaškin's theorem from approximation theory. We show that a slight variant of this order characterizes the representations of a commutative C*-algebra that have the unique extension property relative to a set of generators. This reduces the commutative case of Arveson's hyperrigidity conjecture to the question of whether measures that are maximal with respect to the classical Choquet order are also maximal with respect to this new order. An example shows that these orders are not the same in general.

Ferroelectric metals in 1T/1T'-phase transition metal dichalcogenide MTe2 bilayers (M = Pt, Pd, and Ni)

description: Ferroelectricity and metallicity cannot coexist due to the screening effect of conducting electrons, and a large number of stable monolayers with 1T/1T$^{\prime}$ phase lack spontaneous polarization due to inversion symmetry. In this work, we have constructed the $π$-bilayer structures for transition metal dichalcogenides ($M$Te$_2,M =$ Pt, Pd, and Ni) with van der Waals stacking, where two monolayers are related by $C_{2z}$ rotation, and have demonstrated that these $π$ bilayers are typical ferroelectric metals (FEMs). The $π$-bilayer structure widely exists in nature, such as 1T$^{\prime}$/T$_d$-TMD, $α$-Bi$_4$Br$_4$. The computed vertical polarization of PtTe$_2$ and MoTe$_2$ $π$ bilayers are 0.46 and 0.25 pC/m, respectively. We show that the switching of polarization can be realized through interlayer sliding, which only requires crossing a low energy barrier. The interlayer charge transfer is the source of both vertical polarization and metallicity, and these properties are closely related to the spatially extended Te-$p_z$ orbital. Finally, we reveal that electron doping can significantly adjust the vertical polarization of these FEMs in both magnitude and direction. Our findings introduce a class of FEMs, which have potential applications in functional nanodevices such as ferroelectric tunneling junction and nonvolatile ferroelectric memory.

description: The study of motility of C. elegans has numerous applications in the field of biomedical research related to the muscular disorder, neuromuscular damage and genetics. The swimming behaviour of mutant C. elegans with defective gene similar to age-related neurodegenerative disorder was investigated by studying the fluid flow using micro-PIV. The effect of ageing and the defective gene on the propulsive power exerted by the mutant along with major kinematic parameters were systematically explored and compared with that of the wildtype nematodes. The behavioural variations identified during their growth have the potential to provide quantitative clues for drug screening.

description: It has recently been proposed, by assuming that dark matter is a superfluid, that MOND-like effects can be achieved on small scales whilst preserving the success of $Λ$CDM on large scales. Here we aim to provide the first set of spherical models of galaxy clusters in the context of superfluid dark matter. We first outline the theoretical structure of the superfluid core and the surrounding "normal phase" dark halo of quasi-particles in thermal equlibrium. The latter should encompass the largest part of galaxy clusters. Here, we set the SfDM transition at the radius where the density and pressure of the superfluid and normal phase coincides, neglecting the effect of phonons in the suprefluid core. We then apply the theory to a sample of galaxy clusters, and directly compare the SfDM predicted mass profiles to data. We find that the superfluid formulation can reproduce the X-ray dynamical mass profile of clusters. The SfDM fits however display slight under-predictions of the gravity in the central regions which might be partly related to our neglecting of the effect of phonons in these regions. We conclude that this superfluid formulation is successful in describing galaxy clusters, but further work will be needed to determine whether the parameter choice is consistent with galaxies. Our model could be made more realistic by exploring non-sphericity and the SfDM transition condition we impose.

Effect of Processing on Some Physicochemical Composition and Antinutritional Factors of Locally Grown Cassava (Manihot Esculenta Crantz) Varieties
Creators: name: Abera, Tilahun
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2009

description: The effect of boiling and natural fermentation on Qulle and Kello cassava varieties collected from southern Ethiopia were studied for their physicochemical composition and antinutritional factors. The moisture content of the samples was 9.47±0.47% for Qulle variety and 8.48±0.02% for Kello variety for raw samples. Based on dry weight basis, the ash, fat, protein, crude fibre and total carbohydrate were 3.45±0.20, 0.88±0.10, 1.32±0.06, 3.44±0.00, and 90.55±0.19 % respectively for the raw sample of Qulle variety and 2.43±0.13, 1.02±0.10, 1.47±0.02, 2.82±0.14, 91.76±0.84 % for the raw sample of Kello variety. The energy values are 376.86±1.28 and 386.55±1.93 Kcal/100g for the samples of Qulle and Kello variety respectively. Among the antinutritional factors analyzed, the level of cyanide, phytate, tannin and oxalate were determined to be 4.62±0.01, 543.97±0.74, 1.70±0.33 and 24.93±0.08 mg/100g in raw Qulle sample respectively and 5.04±0.02, 168.24±5.53, 1.82±0.03 and 86.18±0.10 mg/100g in raw Kello sample respectively. Significant difference (p<0.05) was observed in level of all the antinutrients of the two varieties. A reduction of 59.52%, 68.10%, 91.94% and 15.40% in the level of cyanide, phytate, tannin and oxalate was achieved by cooking process respectively and fermentation brought about 77.60%,%, 88.4%, 92.4% and 67.30%, in the level of cyanide, phytate, tannin and oxalates in Qulle samples. Cyanide, phytate, tannin and oxalate were reduced by 25.20%, 14.1%, 64.80% and 32.50% by cooking and a 43.70%, 37.90%, 90.70% and 87.50% reduction was achieved by fermentation for Kello samples. Natural fermentation has resulted in significant reduction in all types of antinutrients, particularly, phytates. Qulle variety is preferable where the antinutrients are significantly reduced more by processing as compared to Kello variety except for the oxalate content.

description: We review recent developments on the thermodynamics of black holes in extended phase space, where the cosmological constant is interpreted as thermodynamic pressure and treated as a thermodynamic variable in its own right. In this approach, the mass of the black hole is no longer regarded as internal energy, rather it is identified with the chemical enthalpy. This leads to an extended dictionary for black hole thermodynamic quantities, in particular a notion of thermodynamic volume emerges for a given black hole spacetime. This volume is conjectured to satisfy the reverse isoperimetric inequality - an inequality imposing a bound on the amount of entropy black hole can carry for a fixed thermodynamic volume. New thermodynamic phase transitions naturally emerge from these identifications. Namely, we show that black holes can be understood from the viewpoint of chemistry, in terms of concepts such as Van der Waals fluids, reentrant phase transitions, and triple points. We also review the recent attempts at extending the AdS/CFT dictionary in this setting, discuss the connections with horizon thermodynamics, applications to Lifshitz spacetimes, and outline possible future directions in this field.

description: We perform a direct calculation of the gluon momentum fraction of the nucleon using maximally twisted mass fermion ensembles with $N_f=2+1+1$ flavors at a pion mass of about $370\,\mathrm{MeV}$ and a lattice spacing of $a\approx 0.082\,\mathrm{fm}$ and with $N_f=2$ flavors at the physical pion mass and a lattice spacing of $a\approx 0.093\,\mathrm{fm}$. In the definition of the gluon operator we employ stout smearing to obtain a statistically significant result for the bare matrix elements. In addition, we perform a lattice perturbative calculation including 2 levels of stout smearing to carry out the mixing and the renormalization of the quark and gluon operators. We find, after conversion to the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ scheme at a scale of $2\,\mathrm{GeV}$: $\langle x\rangle^R_g {=} 0.284(23)(23)$ for pion mass of about $370\,\mathrm{MeV}$ and $\langle x\rangle^R_g {=} 0.283(23)(15)$ for the physical pion mass.

description: Spray-dried mannitol microparticles have recently been a popular pharmaceutical excipient, but it has been a challenge to produce mannitol particles with controlled physicochemical properties. This thesis describes the production of mannitol particles with uniform physicochemical properties using a microfluidic spray dryer. Firstly, a series of single droplet drying experiments was used to establish the drying and crystallization kinetics of mannitol in a hot chamber. Then, a pilot scale microfluidic spray dryer was used to produce mannitol microparticles with desired characteristics. The findings from this research will benefit the producers of pharmaceutical excipients, the pharmaceutical industry and the research community.

We construct PT for the generating functional (GF) of complete Green functions (including disconnected parts of functions) $\mathcal{Z}\left[j\right]$ as well as for GF of connected Green functions $\mathcal{G}\left[j\right]=\ln \mathcal{Z}\left[j\right]$ in powers of coupling constant $g$. It has infrared (IR)-finite terms. We prove that the obtained series, which has the form of a grand canonical partition function (GCPF), is dominated by a convergent series, in other words, has majorant, which allows to expand beyond the weak coupling $g$ limit. Vacuum energy density in second order in $g$ is calculated and researched for different types of Gaussian part $S_{0}[ϕ]$ of the action $S[ϕ]$. Further in the paper, using the polynomial expansion, the general calculable series for $\mathcal{G}\left[j\right]$ is derived. We provide, compare and research simplifications in cases of second-degree polynomial and hard-sphere gas (HSG) approximations. The developed formalism allows us to research the physical properties of the considering system across the entire range of coupling constant $g$, in particular, the vacuum energy density.

On non-primitive Weierstrass points

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Algebraic Geometry (math.AG)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We give an upper bound on the codimension in $M_{g,1}$ of the variety $M^S_{g,1}$ of marked curves $(C,p)$ with a given Weierstrass semigroup. The bound is a combinatorial quantity which we call the effective weight of the semigroup; it is a refinement of the weight of the semigroup, and differs from it precisely when the semigroup is not primitive. We prove that whenever the effective weight is less than g, the variety $M^S_{g,1}$ is nonempty and has a component of the predicted codimension. These results extend previous results of Eisenbud, Harris, and Komeda to the case of non-primitive semigroups. We also survey other cases where the codimension of $M^S_{g,1}$ is known, as evidence that the effective weight estimate is correct in much wider circumstances.

Exploring Surfactant-like Properties of Graphene Oxide for Thermal Engineering of the Emulsions
Creators: name: Tanesh Dinesh Gamot
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2018
Subjects: Thermodynamics

description: This thesis examines the use of two-dimensional nano sized additives like Graphene oxide as an additive to increase the stability and thermal conductivity of the high internal phase water-in-oil emulsion (HIPE). Graphene oxide along with the traditional emulsifier enhances the stability, rheology and most importantly, thermal conductivity by the virtue of its surfactant property and high thermal conductivity. The amine-functionalisation of Graphene oxide (fGO) renders it an ability to thermally percolate in HIPE. The significance of the thesis is that with current strategy thermal transport in a two-phase system can be achieved at an ultra-low volume fraction of additives.
The quasi-two-body decays $B_{(s)} \to (D_{(s)},\bar{D}_{(s)}) ρ\to (D_{(s)}, \bar{D}_{(s)})ππ$ in the perturbative QCD factorization approach

description: In this paper, we studied the $B_{(s)} \to (D_{(s)},\bar{D}_{(s)}) ρ\to (D_{(s)}, \bar{D}_{(s)})ππ$ decays by employing a framework for the quasi-two-body decays in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach. We use the two-pion distribution amplitudes $Φ_{ππ}$, which contains both resonant and nonresonant contributions from the pion pair, to describe the final state interactions (FSIs) between the pions in the resonant region. We found that (a) for all considered decays, the PQCD predictions for their branching ratios based on the quasi-two-body and the two-body framework agree well with each other due to ${\cal B}(ρ\to ππ) \approx 100\%$; For $B^+\to \bar{D^0}ρ^+\to \bar{D^0}π^+ π^0$ and other four considered decay modes, the PQCD predictions do agree well with the measured values within errors; (b) the great difference between the PQCD predictions for ${\cal B}(B\to \bar{D} ρ\to \bar{D} ππ)$ and ${\cal B}(B\to D ρ\to D ππ)$ can be understood by the strong CKM suppression factor $ R_{\rm CKM} \approx 3 \times 10^{-4}$; (c) for the $B_s\to D ρ\to D ππ$ and $B_s\to \bar{D} ρ\to \bar{D} ππ$ decays, however, the PQCD predictions of $R_{\rm s1}\approx 0.13$ and $R_{\rm s2}\approx 0.14$ do agree very well with the moderate CKM suppression factor $R^s_{\rm CKM}\approx 0.14$; and (d) the PQCD predictions for the ratios $R_{Dρ}$ and the strong phase difference $\cosδ_{Dρ}$ of the three $B \to \bar{D} ρ$ decay modes agree well with the LHCb measurements within one standard deviation.

description: Hoy en día las organizaciones, independientemente de su actividad económica, han tomado conciencia de lo importante que es encaminar sus actividades a satisfacer las necesidades y superar las expectativas de los clientes, para lograr mantenerse en el mercado. Los avances en el desarrollo de las organizaciones, enfrentadas cada día a mayores retos , dados los diferentes acuerdos de integración económica y de mercados que mueven el mundo actual, hacen que cada vez sea más necesario para la alta gerencia y los grupos directivos de las empresas, darle mayor consideración a las necesidades de las otras partes interesadas, adicionales al cliente directo, como las comunidades donde opera la sociedad, los trabajadores, el estado, los accionistas y los proveedores, entre otros. Bajo esta perspectiva, una organización además de ser útil a sus accionistas y a sus clientes, debería también prestar atención a la necesidad y expectativa de cada parte interesada; para ello la alta gerencia debe adoptar y aplicar prácticas de gestión actualizadas y apropiadas a la naturaleza, tamaño y complejidad de la organización, sus productos o servicios y acordes con las expectativas y necesidades de dichas partes interesadas. Los empresarios han recibido a lo largo del tiempo, diferentes propuestas sobre prácticas de gestión, dentro de las cuales cabe resaltar el importante papel que han jugado los sistemas de gestión basados en las normas ISO 9000, para el tema de la calidad y las ISO 14000 para el tema del medio ambiente. Estos estándares mundialmente consensuados mediante la International Organization for Standarization (ISO), han surgido como una respuesta a las exigencias de los compradores locales y foráneos de contar con proveedores consistentemente confiables en la calidad del producto o servicio y sistemáticamente respetuosos de las reglamentaciones ambientales aplicables en sus áreas de influencia.

description: This thesis evaluated the axial and radial thermal stresses of field-scale energy piles which are needed by engineers to improve their design. Experiments were conducted on energy piles installed in dense sand and subjected to temperature cycles. The radial thermal stresses developed in the piles were significantly lower than axial thermal stresses and are expected to remain low and negligible for the range of temperatures encountered in energy piles. The response of the thermal strains were thermo-elastic indicating that building loads coupled with temperature cycles are not expected to lead to settlements of the pile and the surrounding dense sand.
Non-invertible symmetries and boundaries in four dimensions

description: We study quantum field theories with boundary by utilizing non-invertible symmetries. We consider three kinds of boundary conditions of the four dimensional $\mathbb{Z}_2$ lattice gauge theory at the critical point as examples. The weights of the elements on the boundary is determined so that these boundary conditions are related by the Kramers-Wannier-Wegner (KWW) duality. In other words, it is required that the KWW duality defects ending on the boundary is topological. Moreover, we obtain the ratios of the hemisphere partition functions with these boundary conditions; this result constrains the boundary renormalization group flows under the assumption of the conjectured g-theorem in four dimensions.
