description: Neural networks have revolutionized the area of artificial intelligence and introduced transformative applications to almost every scientific field and industry. However, this success comes at a great price; the energy requirements for training advanced models are unsustainable. One promising way to address this pressing issue is by developing low-energy neuromorphic hardware that directly supports the algorithm's requirements. The intrinsic non-volatility, non-linearity, and memory of spintronic devices make them appealing candidates for neuromorphic devices. Here we focus on the reservoir computing paradigm, a recurrent network with a simple training algorithm suitable for computation with spintronic devices since they can provide the properties of non-linearity and memory. We review technologies and methods for developing neuromorphic spintronic devices and conclude with critical open issues to address before such devices become widely used.
The German Reproducibility Network (GRN). What is it and why is it worth joining?

description: The German Reproducibility Network (GRN) is a peer-led cross-disciplinary consortium which aims to increase trustworthiness and transparency of scientific research in Germany and beyond. The GRN's activities include the promotion of Open Science training and dissemination of best practices for reproducible and transparent research by bringing together stakeholders in this field to facilitate various exchange formats and synergy effects.
Prospective members of the GRN can be reproducibility initiatives, research institutions, or academic societies. In this poster we focus on the membership procedure for research institutions, such as universities and non-university organizations, and inform prospective members why one's own institution should become a member of the GRN. During the application process applicant research institutions must 1) Develop a Research Improvement Strategy geared towards the expansion and adoption of Open Science practices at their institute; 2) create a senior academic role to fulfill that strategy; and 3) agree upon a Memorandum of Understanding detailing strategic cornerstones geared towards Open Science with the GRN Steering Committee which will be reviewed after 5-years of membership. This poster can therefore be a good occasion to enter into further discussion about applying to become a member in addition to outlining the benefits of joining. Indeed, on the one hand, such a membership is a strong public signal that the institution stands up for the values of open and reproducible science. On the other hand, the GRN offers a variety of exchange and networking opportunities and the possibility of knowledge transfer of the best open and reproducible research practices between institutions and across disciplinary boundaries. For example, in May 2023 the GRN organized a symposium on education and reproducibility in Berlin, Germany.  The symposium allowed for an exchange of experiences, good practices and efforts on education and teaching formats on reproducibility. Speakers from 15 different reproducibility and open science initiatives all over Europe presented their best practices for teaching (e.g. Version control of code and data using Git and DataLad, Training of Spanish speaking researchers with "learning-p2i.eu" course on FAIR principles).
The GRN wants to bring Open Science aspects more strongly into the political debate within Germany. The framework conditions in the science system influence the prioritization of scientists for different research activities. Open and reproducible practices must find their way into the incentive systems of science and the publication system must be designed accordingly. The GRN would like to focus on this discussion in the future. An exchange with research data experts could be very fruitful here.
Exploring cognitive effort investment in mental imagery during digital product customisation: case studies in the fashion industry
Creators: name: Zhan, Bowen
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2024

description: Mass customisation combines the flexibility of custom-made products with the efficiency of mass production, addressing individualisation and sustainability across various industries. This trend, driven by digital advancements and adaptable manufacturing, faces challenges in the widespread adoption of product configurators. These tools, while enabling users to be a part of the product development process, often have limitations such as predefined options that may not fully satisfy customisation needs and complexity in aligning user requirements with the final product. As such, this research seeks to answer the question: How might we improve the digital customisation experience to support a more user-centred experience, ultimately resulting in products that users find satisfying and cherish, thereby promoting their long-term use? This thesis presents an investigation into the user experience during the digital product customisation process, focusing on case studies in the Fashion Industry. The research adopted the Design Research Methodology (DRM) framework, employing a mixed methods approach across three interlinked studies. The research offers new insights into the role of mental imagery in digital product configuration and its impact on customisation efficacy. It proposes a new construct for understanding the relationship between cognitive effort, mental imagery, and the effectiveness of digital product customisation processes. This approach emphasises the need for configurator designs that support multiple types of mental imagery. By enhancing user satisfaction and bridging the gap between digital decisions and real-world outcomes, this research supports users in becoming co-designers and enables more effective mass customisation in digital manufacturing systems. This research sets a promising direction for improving digital product customisation by addressing user experience challenges and developing products that align closely with user needs and preferences. The goal is to create customised items that are more valued, used longer, and ultimately contribute to sustainable production and consumption practices.

description: For improving flexibility and robustness of the engineering of automated production systems (aPS) in case of extending, reducing or modifying parts, several approaches propose an encapsulation and clustering of related functions, e.g. from the electrical, mechanical or software engineering, based on a modular architecture. Considering the development of these modules, there are different stages, e.g. module planning or functional engineering, which have to be completed. A reference model that addresses the different stages for the engineering of aPS is proposed by AutomationML. Due to these different stages and the integration of several engineering disciplines, e.g. mechanical, electrical/electronic or software engineering, information not limited to one discipline are stored redundantly increasing the effort to transfer information and the risk of inconsistency. Although, data formats for the storage and exchange of plant engineering information exist, e.g. AutomationML, fixed domain specific structures and relations of the information, e.g. for automated material flow systems (aMFS), are missing. This paper presents the integration of a meta model into the development of modules for aMFS to improve the transferability and consistency of information between the different engineering stages and the increasing level of detail from the coarse-grained plant planning to the fine-grained functional engineering.

description: We develop a method to study extremality of the disordered state ℙβ for the Ising model on a general countable tree T. It is shown that the tail σ-field is ℙβ-trivial as soon as β is less than the spin glass critical inverse temperature βS Gc , which is determined from the relation tanh(βS Gc) = 1/√br(T). The method is based on the FK representation of ferromagnetic systems and recursive estimates on conditional expectations of the spin at the root. Similar estimates in the context of the bit reconstruction problem on general trees were originally obtained in [EKPS] using different methods.

subject: 74N30

description: Motivated by recent experimental results by Glasauer [7], a thermodynamic theory of shape memory alloys is proposed, which includes not only the high temperature - pseudoelastic - behavior but also the low temperature range of quasiplasticity. Due to the occurance of three different phases - austenite and two martensitic variants - several cases of two-phase equilibria and a three-phase equilibrium have to be taken into account. Their relevance is determined by minimization of the total free energy and subsequently illustrated by the construction of phase charts. A special point of interest is the influence of interfacial energy effects on these phase charts, resulting in phenomena like, for example, the apparent violation of Gibbs' phase rule. Furthermore, their role in the hysteretic load-displacement behavior is discussed in the light of the additional quasiplastic case.
The role of spleen tyrosine kinase in antibody mediated rejection of renal allografts
Creators: name: Clarke, Candice
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2024

description: The non-receptor tyrosine kinase, spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK), is expressed by a variety of immune cells, plays a key role downstream of multiple immunoreceptor signalling, and is important in the pathogenesis of many immunological conditions. Antibody mediated rejection (AMR) is a significant barrier to allograft survival post transplantation and is the leading cause of allograft loss. NK cells are key mediators of allograft injury in AMR due to their potential to mediate both antibody dependent and missing-self induced effector functions, with both distinct activatory pathways utilising SYK as a key signalling molecule. The aims of my project were to determine a role for SYK in the pathogenesis of AMR, to investigate its importance in NK cell activatory signalling and to assess the efficacy and safety of SYK inhibition in the treatment of chronic active AMR in patients. I have studied the expression of SYK protein and mRNA in biological samples from patients with AMR and found it to be upregulated in both histological lesions and peripheral immune cells. Furthermore, I have shown infiltration of NK cells expressing SYK into areas of glomerulitis and peritubular capillaritis. I have studied FcR signalling in human NK cells, showing that SYK is phosphorylated downstream of FcR ligation and is closely associated with NK cell effector function. Using pharmacological SYK inhibition, I have found that broad NK cell effector function can be abrogated. Finally, I report here the results of the FOSTAMR study, where fostamatinib, an oral SYK inhibitor, was used for the first time in patients with chronic active AMR of their renal allograft. These data suggest that SYK is important in the pathogenesis of AMR. The key mediators of allograft injury in AMR, NK cells, use SYK for activatory signalling and SYK inhibition may be an effective treatment strategy for this condition.

"No need has been demonstrated": exploring the opposition to the 1986 New York City gay rights bill
Creators: name: Wondrack, David
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: This paper analyzes opposition to the New York City 1986 gay rights bill, known as "Intro. 2," by identifying the motivations and beliefs behind it, and the arguments used in testimonies before the New York City Council. Examination of five categories of testimonies indicate that there was a loose, disparate coalition with differing arguments and aims that were not easily reconciled. Sources are drawn from the City Council Collection at the LaGuardia and Wagner Archives, and they include letters sent to representatives in city council, pamphlets published to sway opinions, and the transcripts of two crucial hearings held on March 11th and March 20th, 1986. This paper analyzes the testimonies of five major categories of speakers during these two crucial hearings: Noach Dear, a councilmember from Brooklyn; Herb McKay, a community representative from the North Bronx; religious speakers from the Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, Muslim, and Jewish faiths; Dennis Ahern, a spokesman for the New York City Transit Police Benevolent Association (PBA); and finally, the testimony of Peter Vincent, who spoke only for himself. These five speakers of vastly different backgrounds and affiliations were indicative of a coalition that lacked cohesion or the willpower to work together. This coalition was not able to articulate a clear message, and all argued different points.

description: In this article existence and stability of N-front travelling wave solutions of partial differential equations on the real line is investigated. The N-fronts considered here arise as heteroclinic orbits bifurcating from a twisted heteroclinic loop in the underlying ordinary differential equation describing travelling wave solutions. It is proved that the N-front solutions are linearly stable provided the fronts building the twisted heteroclinic loop are linearly stable. The result is applied to travelling waves arising in the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation.

I find a ratio of (L$_{x}$/L$_{disk}$)$\simeq$(2-7)$\times$10$^{-4}$ indicating considerable inefficiency of emission in the boundary layer. There is no blackbody emission with 2$σ$ upper limits kT$_{BB}$$

Results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the solution as time tends to infinity are proved, and the compactness of the orbit is shown.
An \textit{ab initio} study of magnetic structure transitions of FePS$_3$ under high pressure

description: Recent experimental work shows that FePS$_3$ undergoes phase transitions from $C2/m$ ($β\sim107^{\circ}$) to $C2/m$ ($β\sim90^{\circ}$) at $6$ GPa and then to metallic $P\bar{3}1m$ at $14$ GPa, with the magnetic ordering wave vector turning from $k=(01\frac{1}{2})$ to $k=(010)$ at $2$ GPa and to short-range magnetic order accompanying the insulator-metal transition. By preserving the magnetic point groups in $ab \ initio$ calculations we report the following: (1) We successfully reproduce the first magnetic structure transition at $1.2$ GPa and briefly discuss the influence of the Hubbard U parameter on this transition. This isostructural transition causes a change of the Brillouin zone from base-centered monoclinic to primitive monoclinic, and an indrect band gap to direct band gap transition. (2) There is a rotation of the Fe-S octahedron about $0.5^\circ$ through the $[001]$ axis before the neighboring layers shift. (3) The shift between neighboring layers is predicted to occur at $10.0$ GPa and reverses the energy order between $d_{x^2-y^2}$ and $d_{xy}$. (4) A sudden decrease of Fe-S bond length to $2.20$ Å\ accompanies the vanishing of magnetic moment in the insulator-metal transition. Our work shows the importance of symmetries of magnetic structures in pressure-induced phase transition of magnetic systems.

description: We observe an n-dimensional Gaussian random vector x ＝ ξ + v where ξ is a standard n-dimensional Gaussian vector and v ∈ Rn is an unknown mean and we consider the hypothesis testing problem H0 : v ＝ 0 against two related types of alternatives: Bayesian: the coordinates of v may be equal to -b, 0 or +b only and the number of nonzero coordinates is random with binomial distribution Bi(hn,n); Minimax: the coordinates of v may be equal to -b, 0 or +b only and the number, k, of nonzero coordinates is nonrandom. The values b ＝ bn > 0, h ＝ hn ∈ (0, 1] or an integer k ＝ kn ∈ [1,n] are given. These problems are of importance for many applications, for example for multi-channel detection and communication systems. We study the asymptotics of the log-likelihood distribution for Bayesian alternatives and show that they are either Gaussian or degenerate or belong to a special two-parametric class of infinitely divisible distributions. The latter corresponds to the case bn ≍ √log n and hn is small enough. We also show that randomization in the Bayesian alternative corresponds to asymptotically least favorable priors for minimax alrernative if nhn ＝ kn → ∞.
Towards a Formal Specification Framework for Manufacturing Execution Systems

description: Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) optimize production and business processes at the same time. However, the engineering and specification of MES is a challenging, interdisciplinary process. Especially IT and production experts with different views and background have to cooperate. For successful and efficient MES software projects, misunderstandings in the specification process have to be avoided. Therefore, textual specifications need to be complemented by unambiguous graphical models, reducing the complexity by integrating interdisciplinary views and domain specific terms based on different background knowledge. Today's modeling notations focus on the detailed modeling of a certain domain specific problem area. They do not support interdisciplinary discussion adequately. To bridge this gap a novel MES Modeling Language (MES-ML) integrating all necessary views important for MES and pointing out their interdependencies has been developed. Due to its formal basis, comparable and consistent MES-models can be created for specification, standardization, testing, and documentation of MES software. In this paper, the authors present the formal basis of the modeling language and its core notation. The application of MES-ML is demonstrated taking a yogurt production as an example. Finally, the authors give some evaluation results that underline the effectiveness and efficiency of this new modeling approach with reference to four applications in industrial MES-projects in the domain of discrete and hybrid manufacturing.

description: As well known, a horse shoe map, i.e. a special injective reimbedding of the unit square I2 in ℝ2 (or more general, of the cube Im in ℝm) as considered first by S. Smale [4], defines a shift dynamics on the maximal invariant subset of I2 (or Im). It is shown that this remains true almost surely for non injective maps provided the contraction of the mapping in the stable direction in sufficiently strong.

description: The Disrupted in Schizophrenia Gene 1 (DISC1) plays a role in both neural signalling and development and is associated with schizophrenia, although its links to altered brain structure and function in this disorder are not fully established. Here we have used structural and functional MRI to investigate links with six DISC1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). We employed a brain-wide association analysis (BWAS) together with a Jacknife internal validation approach in 46 schizophrenia patients and 24 matched healthy control subjects. Results from structural MRI showed significant associations between all six DISC1 variants and gray matter volume in the precuneus, post-central gyrus and middle cingulate gyrus. Associations with specific SNPs were found for rs2738880 in the left precuneus and right post-central gyrus, and rs1535530 in the right precuneus and middle cingulate gyrus. Using regions showing structural associations as seeds a resting-state functional connectivity analysis revealed significant associations between all 6 SNPS and connectivity between the right precuneus and inferior frontal gyrus. The connection between the right precuneus and inferior frontal gyrus was also specifically associated with rs821617. Importantly schizophrenia patients showed positive correlations between the six DISC-1 SNPs associated gray matter volume in the left precuneus and right post-central gyrus and negative symptom severity. No correlations with illness duration were found. Our results provide the first evidence suggesting a key role for structural and functional connectivity associations between DISC1 polymorphisms and the precuneus in schizophrenia.

description: The second workshop on the HEP Analysis Ecosystem took place 23-25 May 2022 at IJCLab in Orsay, to look at progress and continuing challenges in scaling up HEP analysis to meet the needs of HL-LHC and DUNE, as well as the very pressing needs of LHC Run 3 analysis. The workshop was themed around six particular topics, which were felt to capture key questions, opportunities and challenges. Each topic arranged a plenary session introduction, often with speakers summarising the state-of-the art and the next steps for analysis. This was then followed by parallel sessions, which were much more discussion focused, and where attendees could grapple with the challenges and propose solutions that could be tried. Where there was significant overlap between topics, a joint discussion between them was arranged. In the weeks following the workshop the session conveners wrote this document, which is a summary of the main discussions, the key points raised and the conclusions and outcomes. The document was circulated amongst the participants for comments before being finalised here.

description: An unsteady linear lifting line method for the determination of the circulation and lift distribution along the span of a curved wing subject to harmonic small amplitude oscillations is presented. The method relies on the Pistolesi-Weissinger 3/4-chord steady lifting line theory and couples it to the unsteady theory developed by Possio for the motion of lifting surfaces. It leads to an integro-differential equation of a modified Prandtl's type, where the unknown is the circulation. This equation has been carefully analysed in order to evidence all the singularities and to treat them in the most convenient way. The numerical procedure consists of a gaussian quadrature technique based on Chebyshev's polynomial approximation of the unknown function. The method has been appraised through the comparison of a number of solutions, pertaining to different wing configurations, with existing solutions based on lifting surface theory.

description: R is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics (https://r-project.org) and also a popular tool for geospatial analysis. Docker (https://docker.com) revolutionized the way applications and their dependencies are packaged and deployed. The Rocker project (https://www.rocker-project.org/) hosts a variety of Docker images for R. One of these images is rocker/geospatial with geospatial-related tools, particularly those that can be difficult or slow to add on-the-fly. This presentation showcases works based on rocker/geospatial and provides background how Rocker and Docker provide a basis for increased transparency and reproducibility in geosciences to tackle pressing challenges in data handling and data analysis in software development, research and teaching.

description: Floquet modulation has been widely used in optical lattices for coherent control of quantum gases, in particular for synthesizing artificial gauge fields and simulating topological matters. However, such modulation induces heating which can overwhelm the signal of quantum dynamics in ultracold atoms. Here we report that the thermal motion, instead of being a noise source, provides a new control knob in Floquet-modulated superradiance lattices, which are momentum-space tight-binding lattices of collectively excited states of atoms. The Doppler shifts combined with Floquet modulation provide effective forces along arbitrary directions in a lattice in frequency and momentum dimensions. Dynamic localization, dynamic delocalization and chiral edge currents can be simultaneously observed from a single transport spectrum of superradiance lattices in thermal atoms. Our work paves a way for simulating Floquet topological matters in room-temperature atoms and facilitates their applications in photonic devices.

description: The optical emission spectrum of acetylene excited by monoenergetic electrons was studied in the range of 190 nm to 660 nm. The dissociative excitation and dissociative ionization associated with excitation of the ions initiated by electron impact were dominant processes contributing to the spectrum. The spectrum was dominated by the atomic lines H, C and molecular bands of CH, CH, CH+, and C2. Besides the discrete transitions, we have detected the continuum emission radiation of ethynyl radical C2H. For most important lines and bands of the spectrum we have measured absolute excitation-emission cross sections and determined the energy thresholds of the particular dissociative channels.
