description: This study presents a novel zero-shot user-defined keyword spotting model that utilizes the audio-phoneme relationship of the keyword to improve performance. Unlike the previous approach that estimates at utterance level, we use both utterance and phoneme level information. Our proposed method comprises a two-stream speech encoder architecture, self-attention-based pattern extractor, and phoneme-level detection loss for high performance in various pronunciation environments. Based on experimental results, our proposed model outperforms the baseline model and achieves competitive performance compared with full-shot keyword spotting models. Our proposed model significantly improves the EER and AUC across all datasets, including familiar words, proper nouns, and indistinguishable pronunciations, with an average relative improvement of 67% and 80%, respectively. The implementation code of our proposed model is available at https://github.com/ncsoft/PhonMatchNet.

description: A potential explanation [U.~D.~Jentschura, Phys.\ Rev.\ A {\bf 88}, 062514 (2013)] of the proton radius puzzle originating from the non-perturbative lepton-pair content of the proton is studied. Well-defined quantities that depend on this lepton-pair content are evaluated. Each is found to be of the order of $10({α\over π})^2$, so that we find such a lepton-pair content exists in the proton. However, we argue that this relatively large result and general features of loop diagrams rule out the possibility of lepton-pair content as an explanation of the proton radius puzzle. In addition, the contributions of a class of explanations of the proton radius puzzle (for which the dependence on the $μp$ relative distance is as a contact interaction) is determined.

description: We consider the problem of estimating the graph structure associated with a discrete
Markov random field. We describe a method based on ℓ1-regularized logistic regression,
in which the neighborhood of any given node is estimated by performing logistic regression
subject to an ℓ1-constraint. Our framework applies to the high-dimensional setting,
in which both the number of nodes p and maximum neighborhood sizes d are allowed to
grow as a function of the number of observations n. Our main results provide sufficient
conditions on the triple (n, p, d) for the method to succeed in consistently estimating the
neighborhood of every node in the graph simultaneously. Under certain assumptions
on the population Fisher information matrix, we prove that consistent neighborhood
selection can be obtained for sample sizes n =
Ω(d3 log p), with the error decaying as
O(exp(−Cn/d3)) for some constant C. If these same assumptions are imposed directly
on the sample matrices, we show that n= Ω(d2 log p) samples are sufficient.

description: Schelling's model of segregation, first described in 1969, has become one of the best known models of self-organising behaviour. While Schelling's explicit concern was to understand the mechanisms underlying racial segregation in large cities from a game theoretic perspective, the model should be seen as one of a family, arising in fields as diverse as statistical mechanics, neural networks and the social sciences, and which are concerned with interacting populations situated on network structures. Despite extensive study, however, the (unperturbed) Schelling model has largely resisted rigorous analysis, prior results in the literature generally pertaining to variants of the model in which noise is introduced into the dynamics of the system, the resulting model then being amenable to standard techniques from statistical mechanics or stochastic evolutionary game theory. A series of recent papers (one by Brandt, Immorlica, Kamath, and Kleinberg, and two by the authors), has seen the first rigorous analysis of the one dimensional version of the unperturbed model. Here we provide the first rigorous analysis of the two and three dimensional unperturbed models, establishing most of the phase diagram, and answering a challenge from a recent paper by Brandt, Immorlica, Kamath, and Kleinberg.

We analytically study the band-structure, finding how the Wannier states evolve as two sinusoidal lattices are moved relative to one-another, and relate this evolution to the center of mass motion of an atomic cloud. We pay particular attention to counterintuitive or anomalous regimes, such as when the atomic motion is opposite to that of the lattice.

Higher-order and modal logic as a framework for explanation-based generalization

description: Abstract: "Certain tasks, such as formal program development and theorem proving, are inherently higher-order because they fundamentally rely upon the manipulation of higher-order objects and predicates. Computing tools intended to assist these higher-order tasks are at present inadequate in both the amount of 'knowledge' they contain (i.e., the level of support they provide) and in their ability to 'learn' (i.e., their capacity to enhance that support over time). The application of a relevant machine learning technique -- explanation-based generalization (EBG) -- has been limited to first-order problems. We extend EBG to generalize higher-order values, thereby facilitating its application to higher-order domains.Logic programming provides a uniform framework in which all aspects of explanation-based generalization and learning may be defined and carried out. First-order Horn logics (e.g., Prolog) are not, however, well suited to higher-order applications. Instead, we employ [lambda]Prolog, a higher-order logic programming language, as a framework for realizing higher-order EBG. This requires extending [lambda]Prolog with the necessity operator [box] of modal logic, which leads to the language [lambda][superscript [box]]Prolog. The necessity operator elegantly captures the distinction between domain theory and training instance upon which EBG depends. We develop a meta-interpreter realizing EBG for [lambda][superscript [box]]Prolog and provide examples of higher-order EBG.EBG has been described as 'speed-up' generalization in that its results, while improving performance, do not address previously unsolvable problems. By extending the framework with user interaction, EBG becomes a means by which user-provided search-control knowledge may be mademanifest. This facilitates application to domains in which unguided problem solving is often intractable. Of particular interest to us, and thus investigated here, are theorem proving and formal development."

description: Abstract: "The 'metaphor' is the practice of agile processes most ignored by practitioners. A metaphor is meant to be agreed upon by all members of a project as a means of simply explaining the purpose of the project and thus guide the structure of the architecture, thus it is very important for communication, both among the team and with the client. Since both customers and developers alike use the metaphor to clarify the project, a good metaphor should be easily understandable to customers, yet have sufficient content that it can guide architecture development. This paper experiments with the metaphor as a communication tool."

description: The assumptions behind linear classifiers for categorical data are examined and reformulated in the context of the multinomial manifold, the simplex of multinomial models furnished with the Riemannian structure induced by the Fisher information. This leads to a new view of hyperplane classifiers which, together with a generalized margin concept, shows how to adapt existing margin-based hyperplane models to multinomial geometry. Experiments show the new classification framework to be effective for text classification, where the categorical structure of the data is modeled naturally within the multinomial family.

description: The classical meshing problem is to construct a triangulation of a region that conforms to the boundary, is as coarse as possible, and is constructed from simplices having bounded aspect ratio. In this paper we present a fully incremental Delaunay refinement algorithm. The algorithm is an extension of one introduced by Ruppert. The algorithm is fully incremental in the sense that it does not need any preprocessing to find an initial Delaunay triangulation or an initial refinement to refine away all encroached simplices of input faces. The paper includes a careful statement of the algorithm, an outline of a proof of correctness even when the input may be degenerate, and bounds on the mesh size. The input angle assumption has been relaxed to arccos (1/2sqrt(2)) (about 70 degrees) for all but dihedral angles.

description: $k$-submodular functions, introduced by Huber and Kolmogorov, are functions defined on $\{0, 1, 2, \dots, k\}^n$ satisfying certain submodular-type inequalities. $k$-submodular functions typically arise as relaxations of NP-hard problems, and the relaxations by $k$-submodular functions play key roles in design of efficient, approximation, or fixed-parameter tractable algorithms. Motivated by this, we consider the following problem: Given a function $f : \{1, 2, \dots, k\}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R} \cup \{\infty\}$, determine whether $f$ is extended to a $k$-submodular function $g : \{0, 1, 2, \dots, k\}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R} \cup \{\infty\}$, where $g$ is called a $k$-submodular relaxation of $f$. We give a polymorphic characterization of those functions which admit a $k$-submodular relaxation, and also give a combinatorial $O((k^n)^2)$-time algorithm to find a $k$-submodular relaxation or establish that a $k$-submodular relaxation does not exist. Our algorithm has interesting properties: (1) If the input function is integer valued, then our algorithm outputs a half-integral relaxation, and (2) if the input function is binary, then our algorithm outputs the unique optimal relaxation. We present applications of our algorithm to valued constraint satisfaction problems.

Voraussetzungen so zu gestalten, dass die Aufmerksamkeit und Konzentration der Schülerinnen und Schüler (SuS) einer Oberstufenklasse der Regelschule, zu welchen auch ein Schüler mit ASS zählt, möglichst erfolgreich gesteigert werden kann. Dank einer kleineren Anzahl von motivierten SuS und regelmässigen Doppellektionen, welche jedes Mal eine Entspannungsübung beinhalten, soll dieses Ziel erreicht werden. Den SuS stehen zudem mehr Übungssequenzen mit verschiedenen Schwierigkeitsgraden zur Verfügung. Im Zusammenhang mit Konzentration und Aufmerksamkeit werden die wichtigsten Begriffe und theoretische Grundlagen erläutert. Ebenfalls wird beschrieben, auf welche Konzepte sich das Training bezieht. Zudem wird die Frage geklärt, welche Faktoren für einen Lernzuwachs verantwortlich sind. Es zeigt sich, dass sich das Marburger Konzentrationstraining eignet, um die Aufmerksamkeit von Jugendlichen auf der Oberstufe zu steigern. Motivationale Aspekte, Gruppengrösse und Entspannungsübungen scheinen den Lernerfolg positiv zu beeinflussen.

We also show that the line soliton is linearly unstable with respect to perturbations in the transverse direction.

description: The number of muons in an air shower is a strong indicator of the mass of the primary particle and increases with a small power of the cosmic ray mass by the $β$-exponent, $N_μ \sim A^{(1-β)}$. This behaviour can be explained in terms of the Heitler-Matthews model of hadronic air showers. In this paper, we present a method for calculating $β$ from the Heitler-Matthews model. The method has been successfully verified with a series of simulated events observed by the Pierre Auger Observatory at $10^{19}$ eV. To follow real measurements of the mass composition at this energy, the generated sample consists of a certain fraction of events produced with p, He, N and Fe primary energies. Since hadronic interactions at the highest energies can differ from those observed at energies reached by terrestrial accelerators, we generate a mock data set with $β=0.92$ (the canonical value) and $β=0.96$ (a more exotic scenario). The method can be applied to measured events to determine the muon signal for each primary particle as well as the muon scaling factor and the $β$-exponent. Determining the $β$-exponent can effectively constrain the parameters that govern hadronic interactions and help solve the so-called muon problem, where hadronic interaction models predict too few muons relative to observed events. In this paper, we lay the foundation for the future analysis of measured data from the Pierre Auger Observatory with a simulation study.

IMPLEMENTATION OF A GOLDEN HOUR PROTOCOL FOR EXTREMELY PREMATURE INFANTS

description: ABSTRACT
      Sarah E. W. Croop: Implementation of a Golden Hour Protocol for Extremely Premature Infants
      (Under the direction of Suzanne Thoyre)
              Extremely premature (EP) infants are fragile, susceptible to rapidly developing hypothermia and hypoglycemia, and face substantial risk of long-term morbidity and mortality. Golden Hour protocols (GHP) bundle and standardize evidence-based practices for care of these vulnerable infants during the first 60 minutes of life and are reported to decrease short-term and potentially decrease long-term morbidity and mortality. The purpose of the study was to examine short- and long-term outcomes in EP infants following implementation of a GHP in one neonatal intensive care unit.
        Cyclical plan-do-study-act quality improvement (QI) methodology was utilized. Data were collected on inborn infants < 27 weeks’ gestation (2012-2017) over 3 phases; pre-GHP (n = 80), Phase I (n = 42), and Phase II (n = 92). There were no statistically significant differences in infant characteristics.
              A systematic approach to care of EP infants in the first hour of life resulted in improved short-term outcomes. Significant differences were observed in minutes to completion of GHP care [median (Q1,Q3) 110 (89,138) vs 111 (94,135) vs 92(74,129) respectively p = 0.0035], abnormal temperature (59% vs 26% vs 38%; p = 0.001) and hypoglycemia (18% vs 7% vs 4%; p = 0.012).
              Evaluation of long-term morbidity and mortality did not reveal significant differences. However, there was an increase in the number of infants resuscitated and admitted at the cusp of viability (22 and 23 weeks gestation) over the three phases of the study (16%, 16%, 29%) similar to national trends of providing more aggressive care at earlier gestational ages. Although significant improvements in long-term outcomes were not observed, the lack of significant differences may represent a protective effect of GHP as the highest risks of morbidity and mortality are associated with the most premature infants.
      Additional studies, larger sample sizes, and consistent analysis of long-term morbidities would provide greater insight into the impact of GHP. Ongoing QI should focus on sustaining achieved improvements, continuing to improve time to completion of care, and seeking additional, meaningful short-term outcome measures.

description: Abstract: "Given a set of random variables, it is often the case that their associations can be explained by hidden common causes. We present a set of well-defined assumptions and a provably correct algorithm that allow us to identify some of such hidden common causes. The assumptions are fairly general and sometimes weaker than those used in practice by, for instance, econometricians, psychometricians, social scientists and in many other fields where latent variable models are important and tools such as factor analysis are applicable. The goal is automated knowledge discovery: identifying latent variables that can be used across different applications and causal models and throw new insights over a data generating process. Our approach is evaluated throught [sic] simulations and three real-world cases."

description: Linnik proved in the late 1950's the equidistribution of integer points on large spheres under a congruence condition. The congruence condition was lifted in 1988 by Duke (building on a break-through by Iwaniec) using completely different techniques. We conjecture that this equidistribution result also extends to the pairs consisting of a vector on the sphere and the shape of the lattice in its orthogonal complement. We use a joining result for higher rank diagonalizable actions to obtain this conjecture under an additional congruence condition.

description: To enable meaningful robotic manipulation of objects in the real-world, 6D pose estimation is one of the critical aspects. Most existing approaches have difficulties to extend predictions to scenarios where novel object instances are continuously introduced, especially with heavy occlusions. In this work, we propose a few-shot pose estimation (FSPE) approach called SA6D, which uses a self-adaptive segmentation module to identify the novel target object and construct a point cloud model of the target object using only a small number of cluttered reference images. Unlike existing methods, SA6D does not require object-centric reference images or any additional object information, making it a more generalizable and scalable solution across categories. We evaluate SA6D on real-world tabletop object datasets and demonstrate that SA6D outperforms existing FSPE methods, particularly in cluttered scenes with occlusions, while requiring fewer reference images.

description: Begriffe wie «Kompetenzorientierung» oder «Metakognition» sind in der aktuellen Bildungsdiskussion en vogue und stehen im Zentrum der Auseinandersetzung um die neue Unterrichtsreform. Doch was wird darunter verstanden? Inwieweit ist die Vermittlung metakognitiver Strategien im kompetenzorientierten Unterricht auch für Kinder mit einer kognitiven Beeinträchtigung von Bedeutung? Mittels Literaturrecherche und anschliessender qualitativer Inhaltsanalyse werden in vorliegender Masterarbeit aktuelle Fachbeiträge analysiert, um darauf basierend die zentralen Fragen beantworten zu können.
 Die in dieser Arbeit nach eingehenden Recherchen und vertiefter Analyse vorgenommene Auswertung zeigt, dass die Fähigkeit zur Selbstreflexion auch bei Kindern mit einer kognitiven Beeinträchtigung ab einem bestimmten Entwicklungstand vorhanden ist. Da der Lehrplan 21 im Grundsatz für alle Kinder Gültigkeit hat und die darin beschriebene Förderung der Selbstreflexion sowie das Erkennen und Nutzen persönlicher Ressourcen zum verbindlichen Auftrag der Lehrpersonen gehört, stellt sich demzufolge weniger die Frage der Legitimation für deren Einsatz, als vielmehr jene der konkreten Ausgestaltung.

description: We give a uniform algebraic framework for computing hybrid spectral transforms in an efficient manner. Based on properties of the Kronecker product, we derive a set of recursive equations, which leads naturally to an algorithm for computing such transforms efficiently. As a result, many applications of transforms like the Walsh transform and the Reed-Muller transform, which were previously impossible because of memory constraints, have now become feasible. The same set of recursive equations also gives a new way of explaining hybrid transform diagrams, an efficient data-structure for integer valued Boolean functions

Masterarbeit

description: In der vorliegenden Masterarbeit wird untersucht, wodurch aus retrospektiver Sicht der Eltern ihr aktiver Einbezug in den Förderprozess gekennzeichnet ist, welche Voraussetzungen zu ihrem aktiven Einbezug beigetragen haben und inwiefern ihre Bedürfnisse, Sorgen, Wünsche und Ängste im Förderprozess berücksichtigt wurden. In sieben Experteninterviews kommen Eltern zu Wort, die bis 2018 Heilpädagogische Früherziehung in Anspruch nahmen. Die Auswertung wird mithilfe der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der aktive Einbezug der Eltern an vielen Stellen bereits gelingt und den Kennzeichen einer familienorientierten Praxis, wie sie in der Theorie beschrieben wird, entspricht. Aus persönlichen Erfahrungen und Erwartungen der Eltern lässt sich Verbesserungspotenzial für die Praxis der Heilpädagogischen Früherziehung erkennen.

description: We present a Subaru/IRCS H-band image of the edge-on debris disk around the F2V star HD 15115. We detected the debris disk, which has a bow shape and an asymmetric surface brightness, at a projected separation of 1--3" (~50--150 AU). The disk surface brightness is ~0.5--1.5 mag brighter on the western side than on the eastern side. We use an inclined annulus disk model to probe the disk geometry. The model fitting suggests that the disk has an inner hole with a radius of 86 AU and an eccentricity of 0.06. The disk model also indicates that the amount of dust on the western side is 2.2 times larger than that on the eastern side. A several Jupiter-mass planet may exist at $\gtrsim$45 AU and capture grains at the Lagrangian points to open the eccentric gap. This scenario can explain both the eccentric gap and the difference in the amount of dust. In case of the stellar age of several 100 Myr, a dramatic planetesimal collision possibly causes the dust to increase in the western side. Interstellar medium interaction is also considered as a possible explanation of the asymmetric surface brightness, however, it hardly affect large grains in the vicinity of the inner hole.

description: We study the node distribution of an R-tree storing region data, like for instance islands, lakes or human-inhabited areas. We show that real region datasets are packed in minimum bounding rectangles (MBRs) whose area distribution follows the same power law, named REGAL (REGion Area Law), as that for the regions themselves. Moreover these MBRs are packed in their turn into MBRs following the same law, and so on iteratively, up to the root of the R-tree. Based on this observation, we are able to accurately estimate the search effort for range queries, the most prominent spatial operation, using a small number of easy-to-retrieve parameters. Experiments on a variety of real datasets (islands, lakes, human-inhabited areas) show that our estimation is accurate, enjoying a maximum geometric average relative error within 30%

description: We propose augmenting the empathetic capacities of social robots by integrating non-verbal cues. Our primary contribution is the design and labeling of four types of empathetic non-verbal cues, abbreviated as SAFE: Speech, Action (gesture), Facial expression, and Emotion, in a social robot. These cues are generated using a Large Language Model (LLM). We developed an LLM-based conversational system for the robot and assessed its alignment with social cues as defined by human counselors. Preliminary results show distinct patterns in the robot's responses, such as a preference for calm and positive social emotions like 'joy' and 'lively', and frequent nodding gestures. Despite these tendencies, our approach has led to the development of a social robot capable of context-aware and more authentic interactions. Our work lays the groundwork for future studies on human-robot interactions, emphasizing the essential role of both verbal and non-verbal cues in creating social and empathetic robots.

description: Deep learning (DL)-based solutions have been extensively researched in the medical domain in recent years, enhancing the efficacy of diagnosis, planning, and treatment. Since the usage of health-related data is strictly regulated, processing medical records outside the hospital environment for developing and using DL models demands robust data protection measures. At the same time, it can be challenging to guarantee that a DL solution delivers a minimum level of performance when being trained on secured data, without being specifically designed for the given task. Our approach uses singular value decomposition (SVD) and principal component analysis (PCA) to obfuscate the medical images before employing them in the DL analysis. The capability of DL algorithms to extract relevant information from secured data is assessed on a task of angiographic view classification based on obfuscated frames. The security level is probed by simulated artificial intelligence (AI)-based reconstruction attacks, considering two threat actors with different prior knowledge of the targeted data. The degree of privacy is quantitatively measured using similarity indices. Although a trade-off between privacy and accuracy should be considered, the proposed technique allows for training the angiographic view classifier exclusively on secured data with satisfactory performance and with no computational overhead, model adaptation, or hyperparameter tuning. While the obfuscated medical image content is well protected against human perception, the hypothetical reconstruction attack proved that it is also difficult to recover the complete information of the original frames.

description: We study theoretically interaction potentials and low energy collisions between different alkali atoms and alkali ions. Specifically, we consider systems like X + Y$^{+}$, where X(Y$^{+})$ is either Li(Cs$^+$) or Cs(Li$^+$), Na(Cs$^+$) or Cs(Na$^+$) and Li(Rb$^+$) or Rb(Li$^+$). We calculate the molecular potentials of the ground and first two excited states of these three systems using pseudopotential method and compare our results with those obtained by others. We derive ground-state scattering wave functions and analyze cold collisional properties of these systems for a wide range of energies. We find that, in order to get convergent results for the total scattering cross sections for energies of the order 1 K, one needs to take into account at least 60 partial waves. Low energy scattering properties calculated in this paper may serve as a precursor for experimental exploration of quantum collisions between an alkali atom and an alkali ion of different nucleus.

Subjects: subject: 89999 Information and Computing Sciences not elsewhere classified
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: One of the goals of the immigration course is to present an overview of the field of Computer Science, including introductions to a variety of interesting problem areas. Another is to instill in the entering student an appreciation that Computer Science includes problems which can be studied in depth. We have chosen a problem-oriented format to help satisfy both of these goals, because:
1. in many cases it is easier to use a concrete example to explain the focus of an area than to give general descriptions and abstract proofs; and
2. one of the best ways to appreciate significant problems is to try to solve some.

description: In this paper we describe Imogen, a theorem prover for intuitionistic propositional logic using the focused inverse method. We represent fine-grained control of the search behavior by polarizing  the input formula. In manipulating the polarity of atoms and subformulas, we can often improve the search time by several orders of magnitude. We tested our method against seven other systems on the propositional fragment of the ILTP library. We found that our prover outperforms all other provers on a substantial subset of the library.

description: Green pea galaxies are a special class of star-forming compact galaxies with strong [O III]λ5007 and considered as analogs of high-redshift Lyα-emitting galaxies and potential sources for cosmic reionization. In this paper, we identify 76 strong [O III]λ5007 compact galaxies at z < 0.35 from DR1613 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. These galaxies present relatively low stellar mass, high star formation rate, and low metallicity. Both star-forming main sequence relation (SFMS) and mass-metallicity relation (MZR) are investigated and compared with green pea and blueberry galaxies collected from literature. It is found that our strong [O III] λ5007 compact galaxies share common properties with those compact galaxies with extreme star formation and show distinct scaling relations in respect to those of normal star-forming galaxies at the same redshift. The slope of SFMS is higher, indicates that strong [O III]λ5007 compact galaxies might grow faster in stellar mass. The lower MZR implies that they may be less chemically evolved and hence on the early stage of star formation. A further environmental investigation confirms that they inhabit relatively low-density regions. Future largescale spectroscopic surveys will provide more details on their physical origin and evolution.

Transitions From Order to Disorder in Multi-Dark and Multi-Dark-Bright Soliton Atomic Clouds

description: We have performed a systematic study quantifying the variation of solitary wave behavior from that of an ordered cloud resembling a "crystalline" configuration to that of a disordered state that can be characterized as a soliton "gas". As our illustrative examples, we use both one-component, as well as two-component, one dimensional atomic gases very close to zero temperature, where in the presence of repulsive inter-atomic interactions and of a parabolic trap, a cloud, respectively of dark (dark-bright) solitons can form in the one- (two-) component system. We corroborate our findings through three distinct types of approaches, namely a Gross-Pitaevskii type of partial differential equation, particle-based ordinary differential equations describing the soliton dynamical system and Monte-Carlo simulations for the particle system. We define an "empirical" order parameter to characterize the order of the soliton lattices and study how this changes as a function of the strength of the "thermally" (i.e., kinetically) induced perturbations. As may be anticipated by the one-dimensional nature of our system, the transition from order to disorder is gradual without, apparently, a genuine phase transition ensuing in the intermediate regime.
