description: Many software analysis methods have come to rely on machine learning approaches. Code segmentation - the process of decomposing source code into meaningful blocks - can augment these methods by featurizing code, reducing noise, and limiting the problem space. Traditionally, code segmentation has been done using syntactic cues; current approaches do not intentionally capture logical content. We develop a novel deep learning approach to generate logical code segments regardless of the language or syntactic correctness of the code. Due to the lack of logically segmented source code, we introduce a unique data set construction technique to approximate ground truth for logically segmented code. Logical code segmentation can improve tasks such as automatically commenting code, detecting software vulnerabilities, repairing bugs, labeling code functionality, and synthesizing new code.

description: Hybrid interfaces between distinct quantum systems play a major role in the implementation of quantum networks. Quantum states have to be stored in memories to synchronize the photon arrival times for entanglement swapping by projective measurements in quantum repeaters or for entanglement purification. Here, we analyze the distortion of a single photon wave packet propagating through a dispersive and absorptive medium with high spectral resolution. Single photons are generated from a single In(Ga)As quantum dot with its excitonic transition precisely set relative to the Cesium D1 transition. The delay of spectral components of the single photon wave packet with almost Fourier-limited width is investigated in detail with a 200 MHz narrow-band monolithic Fabry-Pérot resonator. Reflecting the excited state hyperfine structure of Cesium, "slow light" and "fast light" behavior is observed. As a step towards room-temperature alkali vapor memories, quantum dot photons are delayed for 5 ns by strong dispersion between the two 1.17 GHz hyperfine-split excited state transitions. Based on optical pumping on the hyperfine-split ground states, we propose a simple, all-optically controllable delay for synchronization of heralded narrow-band photons in a quantum network.

description: We find a new subalgebra of the star product in the matter sector. Its elements are squeezed states whose matrices commute with (K_1)^2. This subalgebra contains a large set of projectors. The states are represented by their eigenvalues and we find a mapping between the eigenvalues representation and other known representations. The sliver is naturally in this subalgebra. Surprisingly, all the generalized butterfly states are also in this subalgebra, enabling us to analyze their spectrum, and to show the orthogonality of different butterfly states. This means that multi D-brane states can be built of butterfly states.

description: We extend predictive microlensing event searches using the Vista Variables in the Via Lactea survey and the second Gaia data release. We identify two events with maxima in 2019 that require urgent follow-up. First, we predict that the nearby M2 dwarf L 338-152 will align with a background source with a closest approach of $35^{+35}_{-23}$ mas on 2019 November $16^{+28}_{-27}$ d. This will cause a peak astrometric shift and photometric amplification of the background source of $2.7^{+3.5}_{-1.5}$ mas and $5.6^{+143.2}_{-5.2}$ mmag respectively. This event should be astrometrically detectable by both the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and the Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet Research instrument on the Very Large Telescope. Secondly, we predict the likely K dwarf NLTT 45128 will lens a background source with a closest approach of $105.3^{+12.2}_{-11.7}$ mas on 2019 September $26^{+15}_{-15}$ d. This will produce a peak astrometric shift of $0.329^{+0.065}_{-0.059}$ mas. NLTT 45128 is only 3.6 magnitudes brighter than the background source which makes it an excellent candidate for follow-up with HST. Characterisation of these signals will allow direct gravitational masses to be inferred for both L 338-152 and NLTT 45128 with an estimated precision of $\sim9$ and $\sim13$ per cent respectively.

The Problem of Human Shields in War

subject: War--Moral and ethical aspects

description: For as long as humans have waged war, they have distinguished between combatant persons that are liable to attack, and protected persons that should enjoy immunity from attack. And for just as long, combatants have exploited such protected persons as "human shields." They have moved protected persons to military targets, and military targets to protected persons with designs as grand as thwarting the outbreak of war itself, and as narrow as deterring attacks within war. This dissertation explores two sets of questions about these strategies and tactics of "interposition," as I call them, at the intersection of international relations, law, and ethics. First: Whence the power of "human shields?" When and how can belligerents, somewhat paradoxically, find safety in exposure with unarmed persons? Under what conditions can noncombatants exposed at flanks, for instance, deny superiorly positioned ambushers, and captives tied to warehouses deny fleets of aircraft? Second: How do we evaluate harm to people deliberately placed in harm's way? And to what extent are our judgments consistent with prevailing prescriptive models from international law and ethics? In this dissertation, I argue that interposition leverages a peculiar kind of threat. And I attribute the force of this threat to its peculiarities, integrating theory from psychology, anthropology, sociology and evidence from detailed case studies, interviews with military commanders, lawyers and soldiers, and accounts from tens of conflicts across the centuries culled from chronicles, archives, and memoirs. The threat is of killing, of directly and foreseeably harming others, of being identified with killing, of being held liable for killing, of authorizing outrage, massacre and scandal. The threat is distinct because it leverages not a hesitancy to incur damage, which is well documented in the conflict literature, but to inflict damage. And it is under some conditions sufficient to deter and compel even the strongest armies to yield and desist. Moreover, I present suggestive experimental evidence demonstrating some degree of conformity between lay intuitions and prevailing international legal and ethical prescriptions on proportionality in war. Lay respondents to a survey-embedded conjoint experiment balanced military value and collateral damage in ways prescribed by mainstream prescriptive models from international law and ethics. In particular, subjects weighed harm to bystanders and involuntary shields the same, but discounted harm to voluntary shields. In sum, the dissertation illuminates prevalent but poorly understood patterns of conflict behavior, and sheds light on understudied aspects of moral and legal judgment about harm in war.

Soliton Interaction with an External Traveling Wave

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Pattern Formation and Solitons (nlin.PS)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The dynamics of soliton pulses in the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation (NLSE) driven by an external Traveling wave is studied analytically and numerically. The Hamiltonian structure of the system is used to show that, in the adiabatic approximation for a single soliton, the problem is integrable despite the large number of degrees of freedom. Fixed points of the system are found, and their linear stability is investigated. The fixed points correspond to a Doppler shifted resonance between the external wave and the soliton. The structure and topological changes of the phase space of the soliton parameters as functions of the strength of coupling are investigated. A physical derivation of the driven NLSE is given in the context of optical pulse propagation in asymmetric, twin-core optical fibers. The results can be applied to soliton stabilization and amplification.

This is the first solution of the kind found in the theory. We analyze the properties of the apparent horizons as well as the essential singularities of the metric, and compare it with the McVittie spacetime of General Relativity. Depending on the cosmological model adopted and the value of the free parameter $α$ of the theory, the solution describes a cosmological black hole, an inhomogeneity in an expanding universe, or a naked singularity. We use the latter result to set further constraints on the free parameters of the theory.

The long term polarimetric variability of the strongly magnetic white dwarf Grw+70$^\circ$8247

description: Some of the white dwarfs exhibit among the strongest magnetic fields in the universe. Many of these degenerate magnetic stars are also rotating very slowly. Among these objects, Grw+70$^\circ$\,8247, with its century-long suspected rotation period and its 400\,MG magnetic field, stands as a particularly interesting object. Surprisingly, for this star, the first white dwarf in which a magnetic field was discovered, no spectropolarimetric observations have been discussed in the literature in the last 40 years. Here we present two sets of linear and circular polarisation spectra taken in 2015 and 2018, and we compare them with spectropolarimetric data obtained in the 1970s. Polarisation shows variability over a time interval of four decades, but some subtle changes may have been detected even over a three year time interval. Using the variation of the polarisation position angle as a proxy for the rotation of the magnetic axis in the plane of the sky, we conclude that the star's rotation period probably lies in the range of $10^2$ to $10^3$ years. Our data analysis is accompanied by a description of our various calibrations and tests of the ISIS instrument at the William Herschel Telescope that may be of general interest for linear spectropolarimetric measurements. We also found discrepancies in the sign of circular polarisation as reported in the literature, and made explicit the definitions that we have adopted.

Galactic r-process abundance feature shaped by radial migration

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: Growing interests in the chemical feature of r-process elements among nearby disk stars represented by the [Eu/Fe] vs. [Fe/H] diagram have sprouted since it can assess the origin of r-process elements through the comparison with theoretical models, including a test as to if neutron star mergers can be the major site of r-process nucleosynthesis. On the other hand, recent studies reveal that local chemistry is strongly coupled with the dynamics of Galactic disk, which predicts that stars radially move on the disk where the observed elemental feature is different at various Galactocentric distances. Here, we show that radial migration of stars across the Galactic disk plays a crucial role in shaping the r-process abundance feature in the solar vicinity. In this proposed scenario, we highlight the importance of migration from the outer disk where [r-process/Fe] of some old stars is predicted to be enhanced to the level beyond the expectation from the observed Galactic Fe and Eu radial gradient, which results in a large span of [r-process/Fe] among nearby disk stars. The variation in the [r-process/Fe] ratio seen across the Galactic disk as well as in dwarf galaxies may be an outcome of different stellar initial mass functions which change the occurrence frequency between supernovae leaving behind neutron stars and ones ending with black holes. Here we propose that enhancement in [Eu/Fe] is attributed to the initial mass function lacking high-mass stars such as > 25 solar masses in the scheme for which neutron star mergers are a major source of r-process elements.

description: A `black hole sector' of non-perturbative canonical quantum gravity is introduced. The quantum black hole degrees of freedom are shown to be described by a Chern-Simons field theory on the horizon. It is shown that the entropy of a large non-rotating black hole is proportional to its horizon area. The constant of proportionality depends upon the Immirzi parameter, which fixes the spectrum of the area operator in loop quantum gravity; an appropriate choice of this parameter gives the Bekenstein-Hawking formula S = A/4*l_p^2. With the same choice of the Immirzi parameter, this result also holds for black holes carrying electric or dilatonic charge, which are not necessarily near extremal.

description: We show how allowing non-local terms in the field equations of symmetric tensors uncovers a neat geometry that naturally generalizes the Maxwell and Einstein cases. The end results can be related to multiple traces of the generalized Riemann curvatures R_{alpha_1 ... alpha_s; beta_1 > ... beta_s} introduced by de Wit and Freedman, divided by suitable powers of the D'Alembertian operator \Box. The conventional local equations can be recovered by a partial gauge fixing involving the trace of the gauge parameters Lambda_{alpha_1 ... alpha_{s-1}}, absent in the Fronsdal formulation. The same geometry underlies the fermionic equations, that, for all spins s+(1/2), can be linked via the operator (not hskip 1pt pr)/(\Box) to those of the spin-s bosons.

description: Can unfree people make themselves free? Some people are unfree because of the social and political conditions in which they find themselves. To become freer would require changing those conditions; yet changing them requires the exercise of freedom. So it seems like they must already be free in order to become free. Drawing on John Dewey, W.E.B. Du Bois, and B.R. Ambedkar, I argue that the unfree can make themselves free. Unfreedom involves external constraints and how those constraints shape people’s agency. Becoming freer involves coming to know, from the inside, how our agency has been shaped. We can change that shaping and in turn the social conditions. The problem of unfreedom is a vicious cycle. Social conditions constrain agency, which in turn further entrenches the social conditions. A virtuous cycle is possible. Agents can change their conditions, reducing the constraint on their agency, in turn enabling greater change. Conditions are unstable, and agents can take advantage of that instability.
Knowledge mobility—researcher/community agency collaboration: Pragmatic examples about reciprocal Indigenous Knowledge Systems
Creators: name: Hill, Donna
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Recent experience as an interdisciplinary researcher within two Indigenous Knowledge mobilization projects has allowed me to engage in researcher/community relational challenges by working within and across two knowledge systems: Indigenous Knowledge (IK) and Western Knowledge (WK). The purpose of these projects was to facilitate the movement or “mobilization” of IK from the academic literature into an applied indigenous community health and healing context. In this presentation, I explore practical examples of interfacing Indigenous Knowledge(s) and the more dominant Western approach to community-service health programs. These knowledge mobilization projects have involved 1) the synthesis of key concepts and issues pertaining to Indigenous Knowledge and health as documented in the scholarly literature; 2) the presentation of findings in a way that is relevant and useful to community-based aboriginal health organizations; and, 3) the development of other significant ways in which researchers can positively assist their community partners in ethical and reverent ways that demonstrate the “4 R’s” of aboriginal research: Respect, Relevance, Responsibility, and Reciprocity. Working across diverse knowledge systems can be useful in informing research, policy, health, and social services that are relevant and useful to indigenous communities. This mobilization of knowledge from academic to communities presents a new direction of social research that bridges the gap between research and practice. Recommendations suggest how the inclusion of diverse ways of knowing, specifically IK and its conceptual model of being understood as a dynamic, fluid worldview, in academia and in other applied settings can further benefit participants of aboriginal community-based health organizations.

The Problematic Nature of Using Western Treatments for PTSD in Non-Western Settings and a Discussion of Culturally Sensitive Interventions
Creators: Baldachin, Jenna
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Psychology
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: In recent years, American clinicians have sought to diagnose and treat individuals with
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder around the world. Despite noble intentions, their faulty
assumption that western treatments for trauma are universally applicable is highly problematic.
Culture has an immeasurable impact on trauma that can range from differences in interpretations
of traumatic events to symptoms of disordered behavior to societal norms about interventions.
Most often, these issues become apparent in treatment settings, during which problems arise
from the use of western methodology on non-western individuals. For this reason, some
culturally sensitive psychotherapists have recognized the need for more culturally adjustable
treatments and have adapted traditional western interventions for use with other populations.
Recognizing the impact of ethnocultural factors on reactions to trauma and treatment is
imperative if psychologists want to truly help individuals who are suffering from traumatic
experiences around the world.

description: The scientific community is all but certain that the planet is warming as a direct result of human interference with natural climatic systems. Climate change will affect everyone and everything on the planet but these effects will not be distributed equally or in the same way. It is clear that the most marginalized populations on the planet - the (urban) poor, women, children, people of color, the LGBTQ community and the elderly - will be most severely affected. Historically, national and international progress has been inadequate in addressing the profound issues surrounding climate change. Substantive progress is being made, however, in cities, especially in New York City. This thesis seeks to understand the idea that progress at a local, community level can affect city-wide policies and, potentially, larger scale (inter)national climate goals. The New York City Housing Authority’s (NYCHA) Resident Green Committees (RGCs) are used as a lens to examine how pressure from communities can affect change in a climate agenda. Through a review of critical urban and spatial theory; interviews with RGC leaders, NYCHA officials, and public housing residents; and an analysis of the agendas and projects taking place at different housing projects and in NYC housing activism circles, an understanding of the ways in which socio-spatial justice influences our collective future will be completed.
The Production of Autism Diagnoses within an Institutional Network: Towards a Theory of Diagnosis

Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: subject: Sociology

description: Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in verbal and nonverbal communication and socialization, and behaviors that are restricted and repetitive in nature. As there is no cure, inherent in an autism diagnosis is a high degree of uncertainty, and prognosis is highly dependent on how the child responds to his or her individual treatment. Beginning with the empirical finding that all but two children undergoing assessment at an autism clinic received a diagnosis of the disorder, this dissertation argues for an institutional understanding of diagnosis. Parents and children are processed through a network of agents and organizations which eventually leads to the assignment of the diagnostic label of autism. Diagnosis is not an isolated act; rather, it is a prolonged process that is neither independent of the content of the diagnostic category itself nor its history. Based on participant observation, in-depth interviews and content analysis, I analyze the process through which parents and clinicians arrive at an autism diagnosis. I argue that the interests of parents and clinicians are not pre-conceived, motivational factors that direct their actions, but that their interests are constituted through interaction with the institutional matrix in which they are embedded. Parents do not enter this process wanting ambiguity about their child's potential, they wish for a cure; clinicians do not want to dispense ambiguous diagnoses, but aim at providing definitive prognoses. However, during the diagnostic process, the interests and actions of both are mutually adjusted to, and coordinated with, one another. From their initial interactions with Early Intervention therapists, parents learn how to identify the symptoms of autism in their children. They also learn how to find a physician who can diagnose autism, and how to obtain treatment services. In effect, children become patients-in-waiting, occupying a liminal state between health and disability, and parents enter a race against time to re-train aberrant neural pathways. In diagnostic interviews, clinicians alternate between narrative modes which frame autism as either a real disease, a performance, or a label with which to obtain services. Depending on parents' needs, clinicians switch between these different frames in order to re-translate parents' interests, ushering them from the temporality of cure to that of "one day at a time." Ultimately, I observed that nearly all children received a diagnosis of autism as a result of the clinic's positioning within the institutional funnel. Finally, this study describes the historical use of autism diagnostic instruments as they reveal the looping processes that have altered the autistic prototype as well as the alternating privileged status of parental and clinical expertise over time.

description: Vision science, particularly machine vision, has been revolutionized by introducing large-scale image datasets and statistical learning approaches. Yet, human neuroimaging studies of visual perception still rely on small numbers of images (around 100) due to time-constrained experimental procedures. To apply statistical learning approaches that include neuroscience, the number of images used in neuroimaging must be significantly increased. We present BOLD5000, a human functional MRI (fMRI) study that includes almost 5,000 distinct images depicting real-world scenes. Beyond dramatically increasing image dataset size relative to prior fMRI studies, BOLD5000 also accounts for image diversity, overlapping with standard computer vision datasets by incorporating images from the Scene UNderstanding (SUN), Common Objects in Context (COCO), and ImageNet datasets. The scale and diversity of these image datasets, combined with a slow event-related fMRI design, enables fine-grained exploration into the neural representation of a wide range of visual features, categories, and semantics. Concurrently, BOLD5000 brings us closer to realizing Marr’s dream of a singular vision science–the intertwined study of biological and computer vision.

description: We prove that the class of positive operators from $L_\infty (μ)$ to $Y$ has the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás property for any positive measure $μ$, whenever $Y$ is a uniformly monotone Banach lattice with a weak unit. The same result also holds for the pair $(c_0, Y)$ for any uniformly monotone Banach lattice $Y.$ Further we show that these results are optimal in case that $Y$ is strictly monotone.

description: The idea of adaptive walks on fitness landscapes as a means of studying evolutionary processes on large time scales is extended to fitness landscapes that are slowly changing over time. The influence of ruggedness and of the amount of static fitness contributions are investigated for model landscapes derived from Kauffman's $NK$ landscapes. Depending on the amount of static fitness contributions in the landscape, the evolutionary dynamics can be divided into a percolating and a non-percolating phase. In the percolating phase, the walker performs a random walk over the regions of the landscape with high fitness.

description: The problem of finding the quantum theory of the gravitational field, and thus understanding what is quantum spacetime, is still open. One of the most active of the current approaches is loop quantum gravity. Loop quantum gravity is a mathematically well-defined, non-perturbative and background independent quantization of general relativity, with its conventional matter couplings. The research in loop quantum gravity forms today a vast area, ranging from mathematical foundations to physical applications. Among the most significative results obtained are: (i) The computation of the physical spectra of geometrical quantities such as area and volume; which yields quantitative predictions on Planck-scale physics. (ii) A derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking black hole entropy formula. (iii) An intriguing physical picture of the microstructure of quantum physical space, characterized by a polymer-like Planck scale discreteness. This discreteness emerges naturally from the quantum theory and provides a mathematically well-defined realization of Wheeler's intuition of a spacetime ``foam''. Long standing open problems within the approach (lack of a scalar product, overcompleteness of the loop basis, implementation of reality conditions) have been fully solved. The weak part of the approach is the treatment of the dynamics: at present there exist several proposals, which are intensely debated. Here, I provide a general overview of ideas, techniques, results and open problems of this candidate theory of quantum gravity, and a guide to the relevant literature.

description: We perform a one-loop test of the holographic interpretation of the Karch-Randall model, whereby a massive graviton appears on an AdS_4 brane in an AdS_5 bulk. Within the AdS/CFT framework, we examine the quantum corrections to the graviton propagator on the brane, and demonstrate that they induce a graviton mass in exact agreement with the Karch-Randall result. Interestingly enough, at one loop order, the spin 0, spin 1/2 and spin 1 loops contribute to the dynamically generated (mass)^2 in the same 1: 3: 12 ratio as enters the Weyl anomaly and the 1/r^3 corrections to the Newtonian gravitational potential.

description: Multiscale correlation functions in high Reynolds number experimental turbulence, numerical simulations and synthetic signals are investigated. Fusion Rules predictions as they arise from multiplicative, almost uncorrelated, random processes for the energy cascade are tested. Leading and sub-leading contribution, in the inertial range, can be explained as arising from a multiplicative random process for the energy transfer mechanisms. Two different predictions for correlations involving dissipative observable are also briefly discussed.

description: Perfection And Good Taste: Redefining Feminine Identities in Interwar Bucharest Through Fashion and Beauty || This paper explores gender realities in interwar Bucharest through the lens of fashion and beauty. The aim is to evaluate the impact of advice literature on women in reinventing feminine identity and the general effect of these evolutions in interwar Romania. I will analyze visible instances of fashion in the so-called Little Paris spaces in interwar Bucharest. As fashion studies inherently imply an interdisciplinary approach of textile and cosmetic items conception, production, dissemination, consumption and interpretation, this paper proposes a panoramic illustration of Bucharest through its fashion-consuming women. For this purpose, this study will combine a semiotic reading of visual and written texts, added to methodological approaches from sociology, cultural, gender and urban studies, as well as literature. The elegant fashion-consuming Bucharester will be presented as a reflection of her local, national, regional and international context, for a comprehensive understanding of historical and current events both in Romania and at a global level. Consequently, womens fashion becomes a remarkable instrument in analysing gender histories and their outcomes to this day. fashion, beauty, women, interwar Bucharest, Romania, identity.

description: O aumento da expectativa de vida tem provocado preocupação com a qualidade de vida, principalmente a ocorrência de quedas na população geriátrica. O envelhecimento é um processo de declínio continuo nos múltiplos sistemas, porém há como aumentar a qualidade de vida e retardar o declínio desse processo. Objetivo: comparar o perfil antropométrico, funcional, cognitivo e bioquímico de idosos frágeis institucionalizados de acordo com o risco de quedas. Materiais e Métodos: participaram deste estudo 31 idosos institucionalizados (13 mulheres e 18 homens) os quais foram submetidos à avaliação antropométrica (75,4± 7,6 anos, 1,58 ± 0,1 m, 69,0 ± 11,8 Kg). A cognição foi avaliada por meio do Mini Exame do estado mental (MEEM). Para verificar o risco de quedas foram aplicados Quickscreen Clinical Falls Risk Assessment, Romberg, teste de levantar e sentar e o teste Timed Up and Go (TUG). Por fim, foi obtido soro através da coleta de sangue venoso para descrever o perfil bioquímico. Para verificar os dados antropométricos, cognitivos e bioquímicos foram utilizados os testes de Shapiro Wilk, T independente e qui-quadrado, adotando nível de significância de p<0,05. Resultado: idosos com baixo risco de quedas apresentaram maior equilíbrio quando comparados aos idosos com alto risco de quedas. Conclusão: os aspectos antropométricos, cognitivo e bioquímico não apresentaram diferenças de acordo com o baixo ou alto risco de quedas em idosos institucionalizados, exceto o equilíbrio.
