description: The delay of gratification (DoG) in children is widely investigated with an experimental procedure originally called the “marshmallow test,” whereas the studies on self-regulation (SR) in adolescents and adults usually use self-report questionnaires. Delay discounting (DD) measures simplify the DoG procedure and focus on monetary rewards. The aim of this study was to investigate age differences in DoG and DD from childhood to old age using a test that is suitable for both children and adults. Furthermore, investigations were conducted on the association between DoG/DD and two future orientation constructs [future time perspective (FTP) and episodic future thinking (EFT)] as well as age differences in these constructs. Participants from five age groups (9–14, 18–25, 35–55, 65–80, 80+) participated in the study (N = 96). While we found no age difference for DoG, DD was the lowest [i.e., self-control (SC) was the highest] in young/middle adults; however, it was the highest (i.e., SC was the lowest) in children and old/oldest adults. Furthermore, we found significant age differences for DD and FTP. As predicted, there were strong correlations between DoG and FTP and between DD and FTP, but not between DoG/DD and EFT. These results indicate that age differences in SR vary across themeasures used. Individuals who generally think and act in a future-oriented manner have a stronger ability to delay gratification.

We examined racial/ethnic disparities for COVID-19 seroconversion and hospitalization within a prospective cohort (n = 6,740) in the United States enrolled in March 2020 and followed-up through October 2021. Potential SARS-CoV-2 exposure, susceptibility to COVID-19 complications, and access to healthcare varied by race/ethnicity. Hispanic and Black non-Hispanic participants had more exposure risk and difficulty with healthcare access than white participants. Participants with more exposure had greater odds of seroconversion. Participants with more susceptibility and more barriers to healthcare had greater odds of hospitalization. Race/ethnicity positively modified the association between susceptibility and hospitalization. Findings might help to explain the disproportionate burden of SARS-CoV-2 infections and complications among Hispanic/Latino/a and Black non-Hispanic persons. Primary and secondary prevention efforts should address disparities in exposure, vaccination, and treatment for COVID-19.

description: Strong gravitational lensing can produce multiple images of the same gravitational-wave signal, each arriving at different times and with different magnification. Previous work has explored if lensed pairs exist among the known high-significance events and found no evidence of this. However, the possibility remains that weaker counterparts of these events are present in the data, unrecovered by previous searches. We conduct a targeted search specifically looking for sub-threshold lensed images of known binary black hole (BBH) observations. We recover candidates matching three of the additional events first reported by Venumadhav et al. (2019), but find no evidence for additional BBH events. We also find no evidence that any of the Venumadhav et al. observations are lensed counterparts. We demonstrate how this type of counterpart search can constrain hypotheses about the overall source and lens populations and we rule out at very high confidence the extreme hypothesis that all heavy BBH detections are in fact lensed systems at high redshift with intrinsic masses < 15Msun.

description: Recent advances in deep pose estimation models have proven to be effective in a wide range of applications such as health monitoring, sports, animations, and robotics. However, pose estimation models fail to generalize when facing images acquired from in-bed pressure sensing systems. In this paper, we address this challenge by presenting a novel end-to-end framework capable of accurately locating body parts from vague pressure data. Our method exploits the idea of equipping an off-the-shelf pose estimator with a deep trainable neural network, which pre-processes and prepares the pressure data for subsequent pose estimation. Our model transforms the ambiguous pressure maps to images containing shapes and structures similar to the common input domain of the pre-existing pose estimation methods. As a result, we show that our model is able to reconstruct unclear body parts, which in turn enables pose estimators to accurately and robustly estimate the pose. We train and test our method on a manually annotated public pressure map dataset using a combination of loss functions. Results confirm the effectiveness of our method by the high visual quality in the generated images and the high pose estimation rates achieved.

description: IntroductionIn the era of HIV treatment as prevention (TasP), evidence‐based interventions that optimize viral suppression among people who use stimulants such as methamphetamine are needed to improve health outcomes and reduce onward transmission risk. We tested the efficacy of positive affect intervention delivered during community‐based contingency management (CM) for reducing viral load in sexual minority men living with HIV who use methamphetamine.
MethodsConducted in San Francisco, this Phase II randomized controlled trial tested the efficacy of a positive affect intervention for boosting and extending the effectiveness of community‐based CM for stimulant abstinence to achieve more durable reductions in HIV viral load. From 2013 to 2017, 110 sexual minority men living with HIV who had biologically confirmed, recent methamphetamine use were randomized to receive a positive affect intervention (n = 55) or attention‐control condition (n = 55). All individual positive affect intervention and attention‐control sessions were delivered during three months of community‐based CM where participants received financial incentives for stimulant abstinence. The 5‐session positive affect intervention was designed to provide skills for managing stimulant withdrawal symptoms as well as sensitize individuals to natural sources of reward. The attention‐control condition consisted of neutral writing exercises and self‐report measures.
ResultsMen randomized to the positive affect intervention displayed significantly lower log10 HIV viral load at six, twelve and fifteen months compared to those in the attention‐control condition. Men in the positive affect intervention also had significantly lower risk of at least one unsuppressed HIV RNA (≥200 copies/mL) over the 15‐month follow‐up. There were concurrent, statistically significant intervention‐related increases in positive affect as well as decreases in the self‐reported frequency of stimulant use at six and twelve months.
ConclusionsDelivering a positive affect intervention during community‐based CM with sexual minority men who use methamphetamine achieved durable and clinically meaningful reductions in HIV viral load that were paralleled by increases in positive affect and decreases in stimulant use. Further clinical research is needed to determine the effectiveness of integrative, behavioural interventions for optimizing the clinical and public health benefits of TasP in sexual minority men who use stimulants such as methamphetamine.

description: Consider a complete graph $K_n$ with edge weights drawn independently from a uniform distribution $U(0,1)$. The weight of the shortest (minimum-weight) path $P_1$ between two given vertices is known to be $\ln n / n$, asymptotically. Define a second-shortest path $P_2$ to be the shortest path edge-disjoint from $P_1$, and consider more generally the shortest path $P_k$ edge-disjoint from all earlier paths. We show that the cost $X_k$ of $P_k$ converges in probability to $2k/n+\ln n/n$ uniformly for all $k \leq n-1$. We show analogous results when the edge weights are drawn from an exponential distribution. The same results characterise the collectively cheapest $k$ edge-disjoint paths, i.e., a minimum-cost $k$-flow. We also obtain the expectation of $X_k$ conditioned on the existence of $P_k$.

description: Recent judgments in Australia have called for author identiﬁcation in order that copyright subsistence may be established. There is a risk that such calls will be taken too literally, to the detriment of author privacy. This article considers the legal mechanisms by which author identity has historically been shielded from disclosure, without the operation of the copyright system being impaired. It expresses the hope that those who are responsible for developing copyright law will be mindful of the concern for author privacy which has long been part of copyright discourse.

A deep neural network to search for new long-lived particles decaying to jets
Creators: name: CMS Collaboration
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A tagging algorithm to identify jets that are significantly displaced from the proton-proton (pp) collision region in the CMS detector at the LHC is presented. Displaced jets can arise from the decays of long-lived particles (LLPs), which are predicted by several theoretical extensions of the standard model. The tagger is a multiclass classifier based on a deep neural network, which is parameterised according to the proper decay length $\mathrm{c}τ_0$ of the LLP. A novel scheme is defined to reliably label jets from LLP decays for supervised learning. Samples of pp collision data, recorded by the CMS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, and simulated events are used to train the neural network. Domain adaptation by backward propagation is performed to improve the simulation modelling of the jet class probability distributions observed in pp collision data. The potential performance of the tagger is demonstrated with a search for long-lived gluinos, a manifestation of split supersymmetric models. The tagger provides a rejection factor of 10 000 for jets from standard model processes, while maintaining an LLP jet tagging efficiency of 30-80% for gluinos with 1 mm $\leq$ $cτ_0$ $\leq$ 10 m. The expected coverage of the parameter space for split supersymmetry is presented.

description: The parity-preserving $U_A(1)\times U_a(1)$ massive QED$_3$ is ultraviolet finiteness -- exhibits vanishing $β$-functions, associated to the gauge coupling constants (electric and pseudochiral charges) and the Chern-Simons mass parameter, and all the anomalous dimensions of the fields -- as well as is parity and gauge anomaly free at all orders in perturbation theory. The proof is independent of any regularization scheme and it is based on the quantum action principle in combination with general theorems of perturbative quantum field theory by adopting the Becchi-Rouet-Stora (BRS) algebraic renormalization method in the framework of Bogoliubov-Parasiuk-Hepp-Zimmermann (BPHZ) subtraction scheme.

description: SU(2) lattice gauge theory is studied after eliminating thin monopoles and the smallest thick monopoles. Kinematically this constraint allows thick vortex loops which produce long range Z(2) fluctuations. The thick vortex loops are identified in a three dimensional simulation. A condensate of thick vortices persists even after the thin vortices have all disappeared. They decouple at a slightly lower temperature (higher $β$) than the thin vortices and drive a Z(2) like phase transition.

description: Introduction: This study explored whether structural stigma, defined by U.S. state policies related to sexual minority rights, moderated the relationship between sexual identity identity and heavy drinking, alcohol problems, and marijuana use among men and women. Methods: Using combined data from the National Alcohol Survey (NAS) series (2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015), the sample included 11,115 men (421 sexual minority and 10,694 heterosexual) and 14,395 women (413 sexual minority and 13,982 heterosexual). State policy environment was assessed using a time-varying dichotomous indicator of comprehensive protections for sexual minorities (4–6 protections vs. limited or no protections). Gender-stratified logistic regression analyses examined the differential effect of the policy environment by sexual identity on three past-year substance use outcomes: high-intensity drinking (8+ drinks/day), any DSM-5 alcohol use disorder, and marijuana use. Results: Among women, sexual minority status was associated with increased odds of all alcohol and marijuana use outcomes. Among men, sexual minority status was associated with decreased odds of high-intensity drinking but increased use of marijuana. Comprehensive policy protections were associated significantly decreased odds of high-intensity drinking among sexual minority men and marginally significant decreases among women. Conclusions: Comprehensive policy protections appear to be protective for high-intensity drinking among sexual minority men and women. Findings underscore the importance of supportive policies in reducing risk of alcohol-related problems among sexual minorities.

A Path to Purposive Formalism: Interpreting Chapter III for Judicial Independence and Impartiality

Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: subject: Law
subject: FOS: Law

description: The interpretation of the separation of federal judicial power derived from Chapter III of the Constitution is as hotly debated as it is fundamentally important. Two key viewpoints have emerged in this debate, formalism and functionalism. A formalist test focusing on defi nitional characteristics governs the permissible powers of federal courts. A functionalist test looking to whether a power is incompatible with institutional independence and integrity limits the powers of State courts and of judges personae designatae. A rare point of consensus between the two viewpoints, and the central pillar of my critique, is that Chapter III is purposive and should be interpreted to achieve judicial independence and impartiality. This paper queries which method of interpretation can best achieve the independence and impartiality of the federal judicature. The analysis highlights the inherent strengths and weaknesses of each approach and ultimately leads to the identifi cation of a preferred approach I call ‘purposive formalism’. Purposive formalism is a two-tiered method harnessing the strict formalist framework and a compatibility test. It is proposed as a legitimate and signifi cant step forward in the interpretation of Chapter III to achieve the independence and impartiality of the federal judicature.
Contractual Specification of New Property Rights in Resources: The Problem of Measurement Costs

description: Free market environmentalists propose new private rights in resources to support market-based methods of regulation, without reference to the relational nature of property and the need to coordinate multiple rights in assets. For property law to perform its coordination function, the rights must be well-deﬁ ned and supplied with a full set of rules (speciﬁ cations) for their creation, enforcement and termination. As the development of fully speciﬁ ed new property rights is costly, Australian legislators are embracing a shorthand method which relies on contractual speciﬁ cation of the rights by private parties, and empowers them to bind their successors in title. A requirement to record the agreements is insufﬁ cient to address the measurement costs to third parties, who must assess the meaning and effect of variable terms that may or may not be within the scope of the enabling Act.

description: We report an approach to obtaining complex networks with diverse topology, here called syntonets, taking into account the consonances and dissonances between notes as defined by scale temperaments. Though the fundamental frequency is usually considered, in real-world sounds several additional frequencies (partials) accompany the respective fundamental, influencing both timber and consonance between simultaneous notes. We use a method based on Helmholtz's consonance approach to quantify the consonances and dissonances between each of the pairs of notes in a given temperament. We adopt two distinct partials structures: (i) harmonic; and (ii) shifted, obtained by taking the harmonic components to a given power $β$, which is henceforth called the anharmonicity index. The latter type of sounds is more realistic in the sense that they reflect non-linearities implied by real-world instruments. When these consonances/dissonances are estimated along several octaves, respective syntonets can be obtained, in which nodes and weighted edge represent notes, and consonance/dissonance, respectively. The obtained results are organized into two main groups, those related to network science and musical theory. Regarding the former group, we have that the syntonets can provide, for varying values of $β$, a wide range of topologies spanning the space comprised between traditional models. Indeed, it is suggested here that syntony may provide a kind of universal complex network model. The musical interpretations of the results include the confirmation of the more regular consonance pattern of the equal temperament, obtained at the expense of a wider range of consonances such as that in the meantone temperament. We also have that scales derived for shifted partials tend to have a wider range of consonances/dissonances, depending on the temperament and anharmonicity strength.

description: Since a majority of young low-mass stars are members of multiple systems, the study of their stellar and disk configurations is crucial to our understanding of both star and planet formation processes. Here we present near-infrared adaptive optics observations of the young multiple star system VW Cha. The previously known 0.7 arcsec binary is clearly resolved already in our raw J and K band images. We report the discovery of a new, faint companion to the secondary, at an apparent separation of only 0.1 arcsec or 16 AU. Our high-resolution photometric observations also make it possible to measure the J-K colors of each of the three components individually. We detect an infrared excess in the primary, consistent with theoretical models of a circumprimary disk. Analytical and numerical calculations of orbital stability show that VW Cha may be a stable triple system. Using models for the age and total mass of the secondary pair, we estimate the orbital period to be 74 years. Thus, follow-up astrometric observations might yield direct dynamical masses within a few years, and constrain evolutionary models of low-mass stars. Our results demonstrate that adaptive optics imaging in conjunction with deconvolution techniques is a powerful tool for probing close multiple systems.

description: We study the mass fluctuations in gapped Dirac materials by treating the mass-term as both a continuous and discrete random variable. Gapped Dirac materials were proposed to be used as materials for Dark matter sensors. One thus would need to estimate the role of disorder and fluctuations on the interband absorption of dark matter. We find that both continuous and discrete fluctuations across the sample introduce tails (e.g. Lifshitz tails) in the density of states and the interband absorption rate. We estimate the strength of the gap filling and discuss implications of these fluctuations on the performance as sensors for Dark matter detection. The approach used in this work provides a basic framework to model the disorder by any arbitrary mechanism on the interband absorption of Dirac material sensors.

description: The recent experimental data of both pipi / Kpi scattering and production processes, suggesting the existence of scalar sigma and kappa mesons, are reviewed. In many pipi /Kpi production processes the direct effects of their productions are observed, while they are, because of chiral symmetry, hidden in scattering processes, and now sigma(500--600) and kappa(800--900) are considered to be confirmed experimentally. The recent criticism on our method of analyses, which is based on the long believed prejudice of universal pipi / Kpi phase through scattering and production amplitudes, is explained not to be valid.

description: Production and consumption of dairy alternative beverages in the United States has been on the rise as per capita consumption of fluid milk continues to fall. Almond milk and soymilk are the fastest growing categories in the U.S. dairy alternative marketplace. Using household-level purchase data from 2011 Nielsen Homescan panel and tobit econometric procedure, the conditional and unconditional own-price, cross-price and income elasticities for soymilk and almond milk will be estimated. Income, age, employment status, education level, race, ethnicity, region and presence of children are significant drivers affecting the demand for dairy alternative beverages, such as almond milk and soy milk. This paper investigates the growth of the dairy alternative beverage market in the United States and its implications for dairy farmer welfare.

description: Статья посвящена «языку мысли» Ф.М.Достоевского (выражение Б.Н.Тихомирова). Анализируются концепты «покаяние», «раскаяние», «эволюция» и «преображение», которые в своей «Пушкинской речи» Достоевский преломляет в движение, связанное с поиском национального идеала. События столетней давности, «потрясшие мир», заставляют обращаться к пророчествам Достоевского, которые в Пасхальном апреле 1923 г. почти дословно были повторены генералом М.К.Дитерихсом в обращении к воинским частям и гражданским беженцам военного лагеря в Северном Китае: «Россия есть Россия Христа», «Русский народ — православный народ». Двухсотлетний день рождения Достоевского — время очистить от лжи имена венценосных правителей России, оклеветанных и убиенных, снять с Династии, посланной России во спасение в период Смутного времени, навешанные на них ярлыки.

description: Recently, point clouds have shown to be a promising way to represent 3D visual data for a wide range of immersive applications, from augmented reality to autonomous cars. Emerging imaging sensors have made easier to perform richer and denser point cloud acquisition, notably with millions of points, thus raising the need for efficient point cloud coding solutions. In such a scenario, it is important to evaluate the impact and performance of several processing steps in a point cloud communication system, notably the quality degradations associated to point cloud coding solutions. Moreover, since point clouds are not directly visualized but rather processed with a rendering algorithm before shown on any display, the perceived quality of point cloud data highly depends on the rendering solution. In this context, the main objective of this paper is to study the impact of several coding and rendering solutions on the perceived user quality and in the performance of available objective quality assessment metrics. Another contribution regards the assessment of recent MPEG point cloud coding solutions for several popular rendering methods which were never presented before. The conclusions regard the visibility of three types of coding artifacts for the three considered rendering approaches as well as the strengths and weakness of objective quality metrics when point clouds are rendered after coding.

description: Obesity and depression are two major public health concerns that involving a huge population around the world. This study investigates the mutual causality relation between obesity and depression for both males and females. Data for this study are drawn from the 2013 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), and an ordered probability simultaneous equation system is developed to accommodate the ordinal nature of body weight categories and its relation to depression. Results suggest body weight is positively associated with the risk to be depressed while depression in return, has positive effects on body weight for both males and females, and females are more sensible to the effects of depression on body weight. In addition, socio-demographic factors are found to vary significantly between gender, and factors of age, income, race, education, employment, marriage and health status play important roles in affecting body weight.

description: Traditional trial-and-error methods are obstacles for large-scale searching of new optoelectronic materials. Here, we introduce a method combining high-throughput ab initio calculations and machine-learning approaches to predict two-dimensional octahedral oxyhalides with improved optoelectronic properties. We develop an effective machine-learning model based on an expansive dataset generated from density functional calculations including the geometric and electronic properties of 300 two-dimensional octahedral oxyhalides. Our model accelerates the screening of potential optoelectronic materials of 5,000 two-dimensional octahedral oxyhalides. The distorted stacked octahedral factors proposed in our model play essential roles in the machine-learning prediction. Several potential two-dimensional optoelectronic octahedral oxyhalides with moderate band gaps, high electron mobilities, and ultrahigh absorbance coefficients are successfully hypothesized.
