description: Consumption of empty calories, the sum of energy from added sugar and solid fat, exceeds recommendations, but little is known about where US children obtain these empty calories. The objectives of this study were to compare children's empty calorie consumption from retail food stores, schools, and fast food restaurants; to identify food groups that were top contributors of empty calories from each location; and to determine the location providing the majority of calories for these key food groups. This cross-sectional analysis used data from 3,077 US children aged 2-18 years participating in the 2009-2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The empty calorie content of children's intake from stores (33%), schools (32%), and fast food restaurants (35%) was not significantly different in 2009-2010. In absolute terms, stores provided the majority of empty calorie intake (436 kcal). The top contributors of added sugar and solid fat from each location were similar: sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs), grain desserts, and high-fat milk from stores; high-fat milk, grain desserts, and pizza from schools; and SSBs, dairy desserts, french fries, and pizza from fast food restaurants. Schools contributed about 20% of children's intake of high-fat milk and pizza. In conclusion, these findings support the need for continued efforts to reduce empty calorie intake among US children aimed not just at fast food restaurants, but also at stores and schools. The importance of reformed school nutrition standards was suggested, as prior to their implementation, schools resembled fast food restaurants in their contributions to empty calorie intake.

description: Habitual intake of black tea has been associated with relatively lower serum cholesterol concentrations in observational studies. However, clinical trial results evaluating the effects of black tea on serum cholesterol have been inconsistent. Several factors could explain these mixed results, in particular, uncontrolled confounding caused by lifestyle factors, e.g. diet. This diet-controlled clinical trial estimates the effect of black tea flavonoid consumption on cholesterol concentrations in 57 borderline hypercholesterolemic individuals (total cholesterol concentrations between 190 and 260 mg/dl (4.9 and 6.7 mmol/L)). A double blind, randomized crossover trial was conducted in Minneapolis, MN from April 2002 through April 2004, wherein key conditions were tightly controlled to minimize possible confounding. Participants consumed a controlled low-flavonoid diet plus 5 cups per day of black tea or tea-like placebo over two 4-week treatment periods. The flavonoid-free caffeinated placebo matched the tea in color and taste. Differences in cholesterol concentrations at the end of each treatment period were evaluated via linear mixed models. Differences (95% CI) in mg/dl among those treated with tea versus placebo were 3.43 (−7.08, 13.94) for total cholesterol, −1.02 (−11.34, 9.30) for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), 0.58 (−2.98, 4.14) for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), 15.22 (−40.91, 71.35) for triglycerides, and −0.39 (−11.16, 10.38) for LDL plus HDL cholesterol fraction. The LCL-C/HDL-C ratio decreased by −0.1 units (95% CI −0.41, 0.21). No results were statistically or clinically significant. Thus, the intake of 5 cups of black tea per day did not significantly alter the lipid profile of borderline hypercholesterolemic subjects.

description: The absolute single photoionization cross-section was measured for Cl-like K$^{2+}$ over the photon energy range from 44.2 - 69.7 eV at a constant energy resolution of 0.045 eV. The experiments were performed by merging an ion beam with a beam of synchrotron radiation from an undulator. The ground-state ionization threshold was measured at 0.004 eV energy resolution to be 45.717 $\pm$ 0.030 eV. The measurements are rich in resonance structure due to multiple Rydberg series of transitions to autoionizing states. These series are assigned spectroscopically using the quantum defect method, guided by pseudo-relativistic Hartree-Fock calculations for the energies and oscillator strengths of transitions to autoionizing states. The experimental results, which include significant contributions from K$^{2+}$ ions initially in metastable states, are in satisfactory agreement with a linear superposition of semi-relativistic R-matrix calculations of photoionization cross sections from these initial states.

description: Radio astronomy began with one array (Jansky's) and one paraboloid of revolution (Reber's) as collecting areas and has now reached the point where a large number of facilities are arrays of paraboloids, each of which would have looked enormous to Reber in 1932. In the process, interferometry has contributed to the counting of radio sources, establishing superluminal velocities in AGN jets, mapping of sources from the bipolar cow shape on up to full grey-scale and colored images, determining spectral energy distributions requiring non-thermal emission processes, and much else. The process has not been free of competition and controversy, at least partly because it is just a little difficult to understand how earth-rotation, aperture-synthesis interferometry works. Some very important results, for instance the mapping of HI in the Milky Way to reveal spiral arms, warping, and flaring, actually came from single moderate-sized paraboloids. The entry of China into the radio astronomy community has given large (40-110 meter) paraboloids a new lease on life.

description: We investigate the predictive power behind the language of food on social media. We collect a corpus of over three million food-related posts from Twitter and demonstrate that many latent population characteristics can be directly predicted from this data: overweight rate, diabetes rate, political leaning, and home geographical location of authors. For all tasks, our language-based models significantly outperform the majority-class baselines. Performance is further improved with more complex natural language processing, such as topic modeling. We analyze which textual features have most predictive power for these datasets, providing insight into the connections between the language of food, geographic locale, and community characteristics. Lastly, we design and implement an online system for real-time query and visualization of the dataset. Visualization tools, such as geo-referenced heatmaps, semantics-preserving wordclouds and temporal histograms, allow us to discover more complex, global patterns mirrored in the language of food.

However, what consequences does this manipulative capacity of the media have for the construction of teaching material? In fact, audiovisual sources have turned into an economic good of media society. This means that history teaching at school often sticks to textbooks and worksheets whereas public service broadcasters are able to present fascinating multimedia history portals.

description: G-Enum histograms are a new fast and fully automated method for irregular histogram construction. By framing histogram construction as a density estimation problem and its automation as a model selection task, these histograms leverage the Minimum Description Length principle (MDL) to derive two different model selection criteria. Several proven theoretical results about these criteria give insights about their asymptotic behavior and are used to speed up their optimisation. These insights, combined to a greedy search heuristic, are used to construct histograms in linearithmic time rather than the polynomial time incurred by previous works. The capabilities of the proposed MDL density estimation method are illustrated with reference to other fully automated methods in the literature, both on synthetic and large real-world data sets.

description: Building a robust deep neural network (DNN) framework turns out to be a very difficult task as adaptive attacks are developed that break a robust DNN strategy. In this work we first study the bootstrap distribution of DNN weights and biases. We bootstrap three DNN models: a simple three layer convolutional neural network (CNN), VGG16 with 13 convolutional layers and 3 fully connected layers, and Inception v3 with 42 layers. Both VGG16 and Inception v3 are trained on CIFAR10 in order for bootstrapping networks to converge. We then compare the bootstrap NN parameter distributions with those from training DNN with different random initial seeds. We discover that the bootstrap DNN parameter distributions change as the DNN model size increases. And the bootstrap DNN parameter distributions are very close to those obtained from training with different random initial seeds. The bootstrap DNN parameter distributions are used to create a graybox defense strategy. We randomize a certain percentage of the weights of the first convolutional layers of a DNN model, and create a random ensemble of DNNs. Based on one trained DNN, we have infinitely many random DNN ensembles. The adaptive attacks lose the target. A random DNN ensemble is resilient to the adversarial attacks and maintains performance on clean data.

description: A system based on speech recognition is proposed for pilot assist decision-making. It is based on a HIL aircraft simulation platform and uses the microcontroller SPCE061A as the central processor to achieve better reliability and higher cost-effect performance. Technologies of LPCC (linear predictive cepstral coding) and DTW (Dynamic Time Warping) are applied for isolated-word speech recognition to gain a smaller amount of calculation and a better real-time performance. Besides, we adopt the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) regulation technology to effectively regulate each control surface by speech, and thus to assist the pilot to make decisions. By trial and error, it is proved that we have a satisfactory accuracy rate of speech recognition and control effect. More importantly, our paper provides a creative idea for intelligent human-computer interaction and applications of speech recognition in the field of aviation control. Our system is also very easy to be extended and applied.

description: Early-onset bipolar disorder is thought to be a particularly severe variant of the illness. Continuity with the adult form of illness remains unresolved, but preliminary evidence suggests similar biological underpinnings. Recently, we observed localized hippocampal decreases in unmedicated adults with bipolar disorder that were not detectable with conventional volumetric measures. Using the same three-dimensional mapping methods, we sought to investigate whether a similar pattern exists in adolescents with bipolar disorder.

description: Metastasis causes most cancer-related deaths, and one poorly understood aspect of metastatic cancer is the adaptability of cells from a primary tumor to create new niches and survive in multiple, different secondary sites. We used quantitative mass spectrometry to analyze the extracellular matrix (ECM), a critical component of metastatic niches, in metastases to the brain, lungs, liver, and bone marrow, all derived from parental MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells. Tumor and stromal cells cooperated in forming niches; stromal cells produced predominantly core, structural ECM proteins and tumor cells produced a diverse array of ECM-associated proteins, including secreted factors and modulators of the matrix. In addition, tumor and stromal cells together created distinct niches in each tissue. Downregulation of SERPINB1, a protein elevated in brain metastases, led to a reduction in brain metastasis, suggesting that some niche-specific ECM proteins may be involved in metastatic tropism. SIGNIFICANCE: Tumor and stromal cells together create distinct ECM niches in breast cancer metastases to various tissues, providing new insight into how tumor cells adapt to survive in different tissue environments.

description: It is known that a non-Abelian magnetic monopole cannot rotate globally (although it may possess a nonzero angular momentum density). At the same time, the total angular momentum of a magnetic dipole equals the electric charge. In this work we question the generality of these results by considering a number of generalizations of the Georgi-Glashow model. We study two different types of finite energy, regular configurations: solutions with net magnetic charge and monopole-antimonopole pairs with zero net magnetic charge. These configurations are endowed with an electric charge and carry also a nonvanishing angular momentum density. However, we argue that the qualitative results found in the Georgi-Glashow model are generic and thus a magnetic monopole cannot spin as long as the matter fields feature the usual "monopole" asymptotic behaviour independently of the dynamics of the model. A study of the properties of the dyons and magnetic dipoles in some generalizations of the Georgi-Glashow model supplemented with higher order Skyrme-like terms in the gauge curvature and Higgs fields is given quantitatively.

description: Recently, the terahertz (THz) photon-assisted tunneling (PAT) through a two-level InAs quantum dot (QD) has been successfully realized in experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 109}, 077401 (2012)]. The Coulomb interaction in this device is comparable with the energy difference between the two energy levels. We theoretically explore the effects of Coulomb interaction on the PAT processes and show that the main peaks of the experiment can be well derived by our model analysis. Furthermore, we find additional peaks, which were not addressed in the InAs QD experiment and may be further identified in experiments. In particular, we show that, to observe the interesting photon-induced excited state resonance in InAs QD, the Coulomb interaction should be larger than THz photon frequency.

In particular, the long-time probability for observing a reversible efficiency in a given engine is identical to that for the same engine working under the time-reversed driving. When the driving is symmetric, this reversible efficiency becomes the least probable.

During an ultrasound (US) scan, the sonographer is in close contact with the patient, which puts them at risk of COVID-19 transmission. In this paper, we propose a robot-assisted system that automatically scans tissue, increasing sonographer/patient distance and decreasing contact duration between them. This method is developed as a quick response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It considers the preferences of the sonographers in terms of how US scanning is done and can be trained quickly for different applications. Our proposed system automatically scans the tissue using a dexterous robot arm that holds US probe. The system assesses the quality of the acquired US images in real-time. This US image feedback will be used to automatically adjust the US probe contact force based on the quality of the image frame. The quality assessment algorithm is based on three US image features: correlation, compression and noise characteristics. These US image features are input to the SVM classifier, and the robot arm will adjust the US scanning force based on the SVM output. The proposed system enables the sonographer to maintain a distance from the patient because the sonographer does not have to be holding the probe and pressing against the patient’s body for any prolonged time. The SVM was trained using bovine and porcine biological tissue, the system was then tested experimentally on plastisol phantom tissue. The result of the experiments shows us that our proposed quality assessment algorithm successfully maintains US image quality and is fast enough for use in a robotic control loop.

description: Let $\mathbb{N}$ be the set of positive integers. A radio labeling of a graph $G$ is a mapping $φ: V(G) \rightarrow \mathbb{N} \cup \{0\}$ such that the inequality $|φ(u)-φ(v)| \geq diam(G) + 1 - d(u,v)$ holds for every pair of distinct vertices $u,v$ of $G$, where $diam(G)$ and $d(u,v)$ are the diameter of $G$ and distance between $u$ and $v$ in $G$, respectively. The radio number $rn(G)$ of $G$ is the smallest number $k$ such that $G$ has radio labeling $φ$ with $\max\{φ(v) : v \in V(G)\}$ = $k$. Das et al. [Discrete Math. $\mathbf{340}$(2017) 855-861] gave a technique to find a lower bound for the radio number of graphs. In [Algorithms and Discrete Applied Mathematics: CALDAM 2019, Lecture Notes in Computer Science $\mathbf{11394}$, springer, Cham, 2019, 161-173], Bantva modified this technique for finding an improved lower bound on the radio number of graphs and gave a necessary and sufficient condition to achieve the improved lower bound. In this paper, one more useful necessary and sufficient condition to achieve the improved lower bound for the radio number of graphs is given. Using this result, the radio number of the Cartesian product of a path and a wheel graphs is determined.

description: How does the behavioral expression of autism in fragile X syndrome (FXS+Aut) compare to idiopathic autism (iAut)? While social impairments and restricted, repetitive behaviors (RRBs) are common to both variants of autism, closer examination of these symptom domains may reveal meaningful similarities and differences. To this end, we profiled the specific behaviors comprising the social and repetitive behavioral domains in young children with FXS+Aut and iAut.

Advanced approach of superconducting gap function extraction from tunneling experiments
Creators: name: Herman, František
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An advanced theoretical framework is introduced and examined. Its main idea is to extract properties of the superconducting pairing gap function $Δ(ω)$ in the conventional, nearly localized superconductors. To test the approach, we present an experimentally relevant benchmark model with defined normal and superconducting sectors. The developed reverse engineering framework consists of two logic steps. First, dismantle the superconducting density of states into the effects coming from the superconducting pairing and effects inherited from the normal state. Second, extract and reconstruct properties of $Δ(ω)$ and compare it to the superconducting sector of the defined benchmark model. Applying this approach, we can: (i) simulate extraction from the actual experimental low-temperature tunneling data and comment on their required properties, and (ii) maintain absolute control above the reconstructed Cooper-pair-influencing properties during ameliorating the individual steps of the method.

В общей сложности в регион летом 2012 года было завезено 2645 голов животных из Австралии. Становление и развитие молочного животноводства в Приамурье должно быть активным, так как это направление является чрезвычайно перспективным для инвесторов. Для этого требуется консолидация усилий местных производственных предприятий и представителей делового сообщества, специалистов в области консалтинга, технологий и оборудования для молочной отрасли, а также продуманная политика региональных властей, которая позволит реализовать возможности, открывающиеся перед отраслью.

A total of 2645 heads of animals were delivered from Australia to the Amur region in the summer of 2012 year. Formation and development of dairy husbandry has to be active in the Amur region as this direction is extremely perspective for investors. So it needs the consolidation of efforts of local manufacturing enterprises and representatives of business community, experts in the consulting field, technologies field and the equipment for dairy husbandry, and also the calculated policy of the regional authorities which will allow to realize the new opportunities.

Automated software engineering

description: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are being adopted as components in software systems. Creating and specializing DNNs from scratch has grown increasingly difficult as state-of-the-art architectures grow more complex. Following the path of traditional software engineering, machine learning engineers have begun to reuse large-scale pre-trained models (PTMs) and fine-tune these models for downstream tasks. Prior works have studied reuse practices for traditional software packages to guide software enginesers towards better package maintenance and dependency management. We lack a similar foundation of knowledge to guide behaviors in pre-trained model ecosystems.
 In this work, we present the first empirical investigation of PTM reuse. We interviewed 12 practitioners from the most popular PTM ecosystem, Hugging Face, to learn the practices and challenges of PTM reuse. From this data, we model the decision-making process for PTM reuse. Based on the identified practices, we describe useful attributes for model reuse, including provenance, reproducibility, and portability. Three challenges for PTM reuse are missing attributes, discrepancies between claimed and actual performance, and model risks. We substantiate these identified challenges with systematic measurements in the Hugging Face ecosystem. Our work informs future directions on optimizing deep learning ecosystems by automated measuring useful attributes and potential attacks, and envision future research on infrastructure and standardization for model registries.

description: Archives & Special Collections at the University of Glasgow hold a digital collection of ca 500TB.300TB of those are stored in more than 1,000 individual computer storage media – from hard disk drives and floppy disks, to optical media and USB sticks.

 Quarantine and condition checks are a crucial part of our preservation process, ensuring that newly acquired storage media do not introduce contaminants that could harm existing collections; and that computer storage is stored, handled, and transported in a way that minimises the risk of damage or data loss.

 The Guidelines for Conservation and Preservation of Computer Storage Media collate information from British Standards, community documentation and good practice, to provide recommendations on long-term storage, proper media handling, safeguarding, visual inspections, transportation and acclimatisation.

description: When electron doped, the layered transition metal nitrides ${\cal T}$NCl (${\cal T}$ = group IVB transition metal ion) become impressive superconductors with critical temperature T$_c$= 15-26K. Here we take the most studied member, ZrNCl, as a representative and calculate the dielectric response $ε(ω)$ versus frequency and concentration of doped electronic carriers. The static dielectric constant $ε_{\infty}$=5 is reproduced extremely well. We establish that the differences between rigid band modeling and virtual crystal treatment are small, and compare also with actual lithium doping using supercells. We obtain the variations upon changing the doping level of the reflectivity and energy loss function as well, many of which are found not to be correlated with the observed (non)variation of T$_c(x)$. The main plasmon peaks appear where the electron gas model suggests, in the range 1.2-2.0 eV for $x$ varying from 0.16 to 0.50.
