description: Molecular motors are protein nanomachines that organize the internal order of all eukaryotic cells by shuttling intracellular cargos. Kinesins, dyneins, and myosins are three identified superfamilies of molecular motors which often function together within the cells. All of these motors power cellular motility using energy derived from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis. Molecular biology has revealed that the functional impairments of molecular motors would contribute to various human diseases, such as Alzheimer and cancer. Engineering developments have also emerged regarding the utilization of molecular motors in nanorobotics with a variety of missions, such as molecular communications. Despite this progress, the properties of intracellular cargo transport are not well understood. Motivated by the recent experimental findings, this thesis proposes computational and mathematical frameworks to investigate two different modes of intracellular cargo transport driven by (i) a single motor and by (ii) an assembly of two coupled identical motors. We focus on the cargo transport by kinesins because kinesin stepping kinetic scheme has been developed previously, and recent experiments have further measured input parameters for our theory. Nevertheless, our models are rather general and can be applied to other types of cytoskeletal molecular motors.

title: Why Do People Feed Wildlife? An International Comparison

Subjects: subject: Wildlife management.
subject: Wildlife behavior.
subject: Wildlife conservation.
subject: Wildlife rescue.

description: The feeding of wildlife is a popular activity that is regularly undertaken throughout the Western world and despite the potential positive and negative impacts for both the wildlife and people involved there is very little known about the practice. Negative impacts are associated with issues of dependency, population and behavioural changes, and the risk of disease to name a few. Positive impacts of the practice are associated with the support that wildlife may receive through extra supplements to natural resources, and for people involved in the activity, there are benefits to both their well-being and conservation values through fostering the opportunity to connect with nature. Previous wildlife feeding research has shown that public wildlife feeding in the United Kingdom and Australia is quite extensive yet very little is known about why people engage in the activity and if there are any difference in feeding behaviour between the two countries. The general wildlife feeding attitudes in each country are strikingly different. In the United Kingdom wildlife feeding is encouraged, particularly of birds, to help support and conserve species within populated areas. In contrast, in Australia there is an unofficial opposition to the practice and it is generally discouraged based on concern about potential negative impacts. Due to these differences in wildlife feeding attitudes it was predicted that wildlife feeding practices would be different when comparisons were made between the two countries. The research explores the wildlife feeding practice in each country using an online survey to investigate the pattern of feeding, wildlife feeding motivations and attitudes, and the love, care and connection with nature of participants and any relationships this connection has with conservation values and behaviours. It was found that despite the difference in feeding attitudes in Australia and the United Kingdom the pattern of feeding was very similar in most instances. Additionally the predominant motivations to feed wildlife were also similar in both countries where the majority of participants feed wildlife to help support and care for the wildlife; as well as for the pleasure the activity brings them, which was consistent with previous research. The participants in this research were also found to have a high level of love, care and emotional connection with nature; that in turn was seen to demonstrate a positive relationship with both pro-environmental values and behaviour.

description: We study experimentally and theoretically the polarization alternation during the switch-on transient of a quasi-isotropic CO$_2$ laser emitting on the fundamental mode. The observed transient dynamics is well reproduced by means of a model which provides a quantitative discrimination between the intrinsic asymmetry due to the kinetic coupling of molecules with different angular momenta, and the extrinsic anisotropies, due to a tilted intracavity window. Furthermore, the experiment provides a numerical assignment for the decay rate of the coherence term for a CO$_2$ laser.

Evolution of scalar and vector cosmological perturbations through a bounce in metric $f(R)$ gravity in flat FLRW spacetime

description: In the present work we present the full treatment of scalar and vector cosmological perturbations in a non-singular bouncing universe in the context of metric $f(R)$ cosmology. Scalar metric perturbations in $f(R)$ cosmology were previously calculated in the Jordan frame, in the present paper we successfully use the Einstein frame to calculate the scalar metric perturbations where the cosmological bounce takes place in the Jordan frame. The Einstein frame picture presented corrects and completes a previous calculation of scalar perturbations and adds new information. Behavior of fluid velocity potential and the pure vector fluid velocity terms are elaborately calculated for the first time in $f(R)$ cosmology for a bouncing universe in presence of exponential gravity. It is shown that the vector perturbations can remain bounded and almost constant during the non-singular bounce in $f(R)$ gravity unlike general relativistic models where we expect the vector perturbations to be growing during the contracting phase and decaying during the expanding phase. The paper shows that the Einstein frame can be used for calculation of scalar and vector metric perturbations in a bouncing universe for most of the cases except the case of asymmetric non-singular bounces.

description: Extreme events, such as wave-storms, need to be characterized for coastal infrastructure design purposes. Such description should contain information on both the univariate behaviour and the joint-dependence of storm-variables. These two aspects have been here addressed through generalized Pareto distributions and hierarchical Archimedean copulas. A non-stationary model has been used to highlight the relationship between these extreme events and non-stationary climate. It has been applied to a Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 Climate-Change scenario, for a fetch-limited environment (Catalan Coast). In the non-stationary model, all considered variables decrease in time, except for storm-duration at the northern part of the Catalan Coast. The joint distribution of storm variables presents cyclical fluctuations, with a stronger influence of climate dynamics than of climate itself.

description: We study a problem where k autonomous mobile agents are initially located on distinct nodes of a weighted graph (with n nodes and m edges). Each autonomous mobile agent has a predefined velocity and is only allowed to move along the edges of the graph. We are interested in delivering a package, initially positioned in a source node s, to a destination node y. The delivery is achieved by the collective effort of the autonomous mobile agents, which can carry and exchange the package among them. The objective is to compute a delivery schedule that minimizes the delivery time of the package. In this paper, we propose an O(kn log n + km) time algorithm for this problem. This improves the previous state-of-the-art O(k^2 m + k n^2 + APSP) time algorithm for this problem, where APSP stands for the running-time of an algorithm for the All-Pairs Shortest Paths problem.

title: Reading as Constructed and Enacted: What Counts for Australian Students
Creators: name: Rossow, Deborah Marian
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Literacy
subject: National reading achievement data
subject: Children as readers

description: At the time of this study, reading improvement was espoused in media, political and educational arenas as a national priority and empirical sources such as National reading achievement data and State and territory distributions of Australian achievement on PISA underscored the reasons for this priority. The study reported in this thesis contributes to action on this priority. It is a case study of what constitutes reading and what students in one middle years’ classroom in an Australian school take up as reading. A review of the literature found more contestation than concordance in conceptualisations of reading. Although attempts (e.g., Cope & Kalantzis, 2000; Durrant & Green, 2000; Freebody & Luke, 1990, 2003; Kalantzis & Cope, 1997; Kress, 2000; Lankshear & Knobel, 2004; Luke & Freebody, 1999a, 1999b; The New London Group, 1996, 2000; Unsworth, 2002) have been made to clarify the confusions that arise from the contestations in the field, few have resulted in general take-up within the teaching profession of a procedural conceptualisation. Luke and Freebody’s ‘four roles/practices’ has been an exception. Nevertheless, it too, has had several changes in name as educators have tried to communicate broadly about what it is readers do when they read. Another finding of the literature is a tendency to legitimatise and privilege school and schoollike literacy to the detriment of other forms of literacies. Privileging school and school-like literacy formalises and sanctions the use of particular texts and ways of doing literacy, while marginalising and silencing other forms of literacy, their texts, and the ways of doing these literacies. This finding is problematic in that (a) it does not align with contemporary theories of literacy which show that there are multiple and multi-modal literacies; (b) it privileges school literacy to the detriment of other literacies, and (c) it restricts the potential for children to be flexible and competent users of a diverse range of literacies as required to participate effectively in contemporary society.

description: Growing evidence suggests that aberrant epigenetic regulation of gene function is strongly related to the genesis of cancer. Unlike genetic mutations, the ability to reprogram the epigenetic landscape in the cancer epigenome is one of the most promising target therapies in both treatment and reversibility of drug resistance. Epigenetic alterations in cancer development and progression may be the basis for the individual variation in drug response. Thus, this review focuses on the emerging area of pharmaco(epi)genomics, specifically highlighting epigenetic reprogramming during tumorigenesis and how epigenetic markers are targeted as a therapy (epidrugs) and the clinical implications of this for cancer treatment.

description: Classical phase retrieval problem is the recovery of a constrained image from the magnitude of its Fourier transform. Although there are several well-known phase retrieval algorithms including the hybrid input-output (HIO) method, the reconstruction performance is generally sensitive to initialization and measurement noise. Recently, deep neural networks (DNNs) have been shown to provide state-of-the-art performance in solving several inverse problems such as denoising, deconvolution, and superresolution. In this work, we develop a phase retrieval algorithm that utilizes two DNNs together with the model-based HIO method. First, a DNN is trained to remove the HIO artifacts and is used iteratively with the HIO method to improve the reconstructions. After this iterative phase, a second DNN is trained to remove the remaining artifacts. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of ourapproach, which has little additional computational cost compared to the HIO method. Our approach not only achieves state-of-the-art reconstruction performance but also is more robust to different initialization and noise levels.

description: BIMA CO 1-0 observations are presented of the spiral galaxies NGC 5394 and NGC 5395 that have undergone a recent, grazing encounter. In NGC 5394, 80% of the CO emission detected by BIMA is concentrated in the central 800 pc (FWHM) starburst region.In an encounter simulation that reproduces some of the main features of this galaxy pair, a considerable amount of gas in NGC 5394 falls into the central region early in the collision. The observed total gas distribution in the disk of NGC 5394 is lopsided, with more HI, CO, and H-alpha emission coming from the western or southwestern side. The innermost western arm of NGC 5394 is seen in CO and H-alpha emission, but the eastern inner-disk arm, which is very bright in the optical continuum, is not detected in CO or H-alpha emission. From a comparison of the radio continuum, H-alpha, 60 micron, and CO luminosities, we estimate that the average visual extinction of the starburst is 3 - 4 mag and the conversion factor N(H2)/I(CO) in the starburst is a factor of 3 - 4 below the standard value. Comparison of NGC 5394 with two other systems previously studied suggests that in prograde grazing encounters a central starburst may not develop until near the end of the ocular phase. Very little of the CO emission from NGC 5395 found in previous single-dish observations is detected by BIMA.

description: This paper describes the construction and optimization of a Langmuir-Taylor detector for lithium, using a rhenium ribbon. The absolute detection probability of this very sensitive detector is measured and the dependence of this probability with oxygen pressure and surface temperature is studied. Sources of background signal and their minimization are also discussed in details. And a comparison between our data concerning the response time of the detector and literature values is given. A theoretical analysis has been made: this analysis supports the validity of the Saha-Langmuir law to relate the ionization probability to the work function. Finally, the rapid variations of the work function with oxygen pressure and temperature are explained by a chemical equilibrium model.

The bimodal distribution of the R21 parameter in HADS stars is explained as a contamination effect from RRc stars: there is evidence that all stars with 0.200.55 d; evolutionary phases or the combination of different physical conditions (not only metallicity) are suggested to explain this separation, observed also in the cluster RRab stars. The stellar parameters of RRc stars in a given globular cluster show different tendencies than those of RRc stars from different clusters.

description: In real world scenarios where we use machine learning algorithms, we often have to deal with cases where input data changes its nature with time. In order to maintain the accuracy of the learning algorithm, we frequently have to retrain our learning system, thereby making the system inconvenient and unreliable. This problem can be solved by using learning algorithms which can learn continuously with time (incremental/ online learning). Another common problem of real-world learning scenarios that we often have to deal with is acquiring large amounts of data which is expensive and time consuming. Semi-supervised learning is the machine learning paradigm concerned with utilizing unlabeled data to improve the precision of classifier or regressor. Unlabeled data is a powerful and easily available resource and it should be utilized to build an accurate learning system. It has often been observed that there is a vast amount of redundancy in any huge, real-time database and it is not advisable to process every redundant sample to gain the same (already acquired) knowledge. Active learning is the learning setting which can handle this issue. Therefore in this research we propose an online semi-supervised learning framework which can learn actively. We have proposed an "online semi-supervised Random Naive Bayes (RNB)" classifier and as the name implies it can learn in an online manner and make use of both labeled and unlabeled data to learn. In order to boost accuracy we improved the network structure of NB (using Bayes net) to propose an Augmented Naive Bayes (ANB) classifier and achieved a substantial jump in accuracy. In order to reduce the processing of redundant data and achieve faster convergence of learning, we proposed to conduct incremental semi-supervised learning in active manner. We applied the proposed methods on the "Tamil script handwritten character recognition" problem and have obtained favorable results. Experimental results prove that our proposed online classifiers does as well as and sometimes better than its batch learning counterpart. And active learning helps to achieve learning convergence with much less number of samples.

description: Pairs Trading is carried out in the financial market to earn huge profits from known equilibrium relation between pairs of stock. In financial markets, seldom it is seen that stock pairs are correlated at particular lead or lag. This lead-lag relationship has been empirically studied in various financial markets. Earlier research works have suggested various measures for identifying the best pairs for pairs trading, but they do not consider this lead-lag effect. The present study proposes a new distance measure which incorporates the lead-lag relationship between the stocks while selecting the best pairs for pairs trading. Further, the lead-lag value between the stocks is allowed to vary continuously over time. The proposed measures importance has been show-cased through experimentation on two different datasets, one corresponding to Indian companies and another corresponding to American companies. When the proposed measure is clubbed with SSD measure, i.e., when pairs are identified through optimising both these measures, then the selected pairs consistently generate the best profit, as compared to all other measures. Finally, possible generalisation and extension of the proposed distance measure have been discussed.

description: The aim of presented research is to design a nanodevice based on a gate-defined quantum dot within a MoS$_2$ monolayer in which we confine a single electron. By applying control voltages to the device gates we modulate the confinement potential and force intervalley transitions. The present Rashba spin-orbit coupling additionally allows for spin operations. Moreover, both effects enable the spin-valley SWAP. The device structure is modeled realistically, taking into account feasible dot-forming potential and electric field that controls the Rasha coupling. Therefore, by performing reliable numerical simulations, we show how by electrically controlling the state of the electron in the device, we can obtain single- and two-qubit (thus universal) gates in a spin-valley two-qubit system. Through simulations we investigate possibility of implementation of two qubits \textit{locally}, based on single electron, with an intriguing feature that two-qubit gates are easier to realize than single ones.

description: Numerical simulations of quasi-static magnetoconvection with a vertical magnetic field are carried out up to a Chandrasekhar number of $Q=10^8$ over a broad range of Rayleigh numbers $Ra$. Three magnetoconvection regimes are identified: two of the regimes are magnetically-constrained in the sense that a leading-order balance exists between the Lorentz and buoyancy forces, whereas the third regime is characterized by unbalanced dynamics that is similar to non-magnetic convection. Each regime is distinguished by flow morphology, momentum and heat equation balances, and heat transport behavior. One of the magnetically-constrained regimes appears to represent an `ultimate' magnetoconvection regime in the dual limit of asymptotically-large buoyancy forcing and magnetic field strength; this regime is characterized by an interconnected network of anisotropic, spatially-localized fluid columns aligned with the direction of the imposed magnetic field that remain quasi-laminar despite having large flow speeds. As for non-magnetic convection, heat transport is controlled primarily by the thermal boundary layer. Empirically, the scaling of the heat transport and flow speeds with $Ra$ appear to be independent of the thermal Prandtl number within the magnetically-constrained, high-$Q$ regimes.

description: Temporal variation of millimeter lines is a new direction of research for evolved stars. It has the potential to probe the dynamical wind launching processes from time dimension. We report here the first ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter Array) results that cover 817 days of an on-going monitoring of 1.1 mm lines in the archetypal carbon star IRC +10216. The monitoring is done with the compact 7-m array (ACA) and in infrared with a 1.25 m telescope in Crimea. A high sensitivity of the cumulative spectra covering a total of ~7.2 GHz between 250 - 270 GHz range has allowed us to detect about 148 known transitions of 20 molecules, together with more of their isotopologues, and 81 unidentified lines. An overview of the variabilities of all detected line features are presented in spectral plots. Although a handful of lines are found to be very possibly stable in time, most other lines are varying either roughly in phase or in anti-correlation with the near-infrared light. Several lines have their variations in the ALMA data coincident with existing single dish monitoring results, while several others do not, which requires an yet unknown mechanism in the circumstellar envelop to explain.

title: Dinged and Dented: Investigating the `Worlding' of an Art Object
Creators: name: Lee, Doyoung
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: worlding
subject: Heidegger
subject: readymade

description: This exegesis outlines the procedures, processes, and methodology used in developing a body of studio work that investigates how a sculptural object 'worlds'. In Heidegger's concept of 'worlding', an object is considered not as a mere fixed or neutral reality existing 'out there', but rather as a mutable entity in its own right, existing in a state of openness and receptivity to the world around itself where it acquires meaning through the active engagement with it. Against such a contextual backdrop, I approach and frame the object's relationality as it pertains to my object-making practice. In it, a pre-determined, pre-imposed equipmentality of an object is relinquished to encompass the more empowering state of being informed by a shifting entanglement of relation between its material essence and the lived urgency of the artist. A wide range of art and non-art mediums are used to produce the exhibited works of art which are the primary fulcrum for interpreting Heidegger's treatment of the object in everyday experience and extending this to the special character of the art object. To give demonstrative weight to the analysis in the exegesis, the products of studio production are integrated with work of contemporary artists in related fields. To locate this collection of material works of art within the shifting field of object-oriented ontology more broadly, the themes of the 'readymade' and 'everyday' are used as catalysts to stimulate discussion since they have currency and potency inside and outside the artworld. The project aims to demonstrate that art objects traffic through the world as work in progress and how the non-utilitarian mode of existence engenders deficiency and contingency. Such objects 'make' the world as it can be understood.
Halo Tracing with Atomic Hydrogen

description: This paper reviews the constraints that can be placed on the shapes of disk galaxies' dark halos using the distribution and kinematics of atomic hydrogen. These data indicate that dark halos are close to axisymmetric, with their axes of symmetry co-aligned with their disk axes. They also appear to be oblate, with shortest-to-longest axis ratios displaying quite a broad range of values from ~0.2 to ~0.8. These results are consistent with the predicted shapes of halos in cold dark matter scenarios, but rule out some of the more exotic dark matter candidates. However, the total number of measurements is still depressingly small, and more data are required if halo shape is to become a powerful diagnostic for theories of galaxy formation and evolution.

title: Building Transformational Preparedness for Mergers and Acquisitions - An Enterprise Architecture Approach

description: Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) are becoming central for organisations of medium to large scale due to reasons such as globalization, market competition, need for product/service innovation, changes in regulations, economic and environmental changes, etc. Organisations use mergers and acquisitions as an option to address significant strategic management issues caused by one or more of the above business imperatives. Typically, mergers and acquisitions lead to essential organisational changes including change in current business processes and information systems in use. Unfortunately researchers and practitioners have found that more than half of M&As fail to achieve the results aimed for. An important conclusion of M&A research to date has found that a major cause of M&A difficulties and failure is the need for long-term integration planning and the time needed for the implementation. This thesis argues that if strategic management consider M&A as possible future options then it is both necessary and possible to build M&A preparedness well before a Merger or Acquisition decision is contemplated. Having such preparedness a) will improve management’s ability to predict the feasibility, cost, risk and time needed to complete a Merger or Acquisition, b) will allow a comprehensive post-merger integration planning to be completed in a timely manner, and c) will shorten the time as well as reduce the cost and risk of post M&A integration. This research demonstrates how an enterprise’s strategic management can consider the necessary level and type of preparedness, as well as orchestrate the building of such preparedness. The method used in this paper originates in Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice applied to the whole of the enterprise (as opposed to the often used view of EA that restricts it to the change management of IT systems only).
