description: In the United States the bicycle continues to increase in importance as a transport mode for a growing number of people. However, due to significant differences in physical size, mass and operational speed when compared with motorized vehicles, this increase in bicycle traffic has led to a number of relatively new traffic engineering problems. One problem that frequently occurs involves bicyclists that attempt to pass through intersections controlled by vehicular actuated traffic signals. The proper operation of a vehicular actuated traffic signal depends on in-road sensing devices that detect vehicle presence and/or passage. Proper detector operation is, however, frequently precluded because of the small mass and size of bicycles. The most popular type of in-road sensing device in use today is the inductance loop detector. As the bicycle continues to increase in importance as a transport mode for a growing number of people, the detection of bicycles through the use of inductance loop detectors at vehicular actuated traffic signals also continues to increase in importance. This report presents a review of research that has been previously conducted on this topic, a discussion of a field testing program for evaluation of the bicycle detection capability of typical loop detector installations and an analysis of the data that was collected in the field testing program. Conclusions and recommendations based upon the theoretical and experimental study of the performance of inductance loop detectors in detecting bicycles are also suggested. This report should assist engineers and technicians in the design of inductance loop detector systems that provide dependable and consistent bicycle detection at vehicular actuated traffic signals
Full quantum mechanical analysis of atomic three-grating Mach-Zehnder interferometry

description: Atomic three-grating Mach-Zehnder interferometry constitutes an important tool to probe fundamental aspects of the quantum theory. There is, however, a remarkable gap in the literature between the oversimplified models and robust numerical simulations considered to describe the corresponding experiments. Consequently, the former usually lead to paradoxical scenarios, such as the wave-particle dual behavior of atoms, while the latter make difficult the data analysis in simple terms. Here these issues are tackled by means of a simple grating working model consisting of evenly-spaced Gaussian slits. As is shown, this model suffices to explore and explain such experiments both analytically and numerically, giving a good account of the full atomic journey inside the interferometer, and hence contributing to make less mystic the physics involved. More specifically, it provides a clear and unambiguous picture of the wavefront splitting that takes place inside the interferometer, illustrating how the momentum along each emerging diffraction order is well defined even though the wave function itself still displays a rather complex shape. To this end, the local transverse momentum is also introduced in this context as a reliable analytical tool. The splitting, apart from being a key issue to understand atomic Mach-Zehnder interferometry, also demonstrates at a fundamental level how wave and particle aspects are always present in the experiment, without incurring in any contradiction or interpretive paradox. On the other hand, at a practical level, the generality and versatility of the model and methodology presented, makes them suitable to attack analogous problems in a simple manner after a convenient tuning.

Feedback Generation for Performance Problems in Introductory Programming Assignments

description: Providing feedback on programming assignments manually is a tedious, error prone, and time-consuming task. In this paper, we motivate and address the problem of generating feedback on performance aspects in introductory programming assignments. We studied a large number of functionally correct student solutions to introductory programming assignments and observed: (1) There are different algorithmic strategies, with varying levels of efficiency, for solving a given problem. These different strategies merit different feedback. (2) The same algorithmic strategy can be implemented in countless different ways, which are not relevant for reporting feedback on the student program. We propose a light-weight programming language extension that allows a teacher to define an algorithmic strategy by specifying certain key values that should occur during the execution of an implementation. We describe a dynamic analysis based approach to test whether a student's program matches a teacher's specification. Our experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of both our specification language and our dynamic analysis. On one of our benchmarks consisting of 2316 functionally correct implementations to 3 programming problems, we identified 16 strategies that we were able to describe using our specification language (in 95 minutes after inspecting 66, i.e., around 3%, implementations). Our dynamic analysis correctly matched each implementation with its corresponding specification, thereby automatically producing the intended feedback.

description: It is shown that the anomalous sharp increasing of the strength of the near-side ridge structures observed in Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 62 GeV and $\sqrt{s}=$ 200 GeV and the onset of the ridge structure in pPb and in pp collisions can be naturally explained in the framework of string percolation. In all the cases the near-side strength reflects the collision area covered by the strings stretched between the colliding objects and therefore it is related to the shape of their profile functions. The dependence of the pseudorapidty and azimuthal widths on multiplicty and energy is qualitatively explained.

description: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the following invariance equation involving two $2$-variable generalized Bajraktarević means, i.e., we aim to solve the functional equation $$ f^{-1}\bigg(\frac{p_1(x)f(x)+p_2(y)f(y)}{p_1(x)+p_2(y)}\bigg)+g^{-1}\bigg(\frac{q_1(x)g(x)+q_2(y)g(y)}{q_1(x)+q_2(y)}\bigg)=x+y \qquad(x,y\in I), $$ where $I$ is a nonempty open real interval and $f,g:I\to\mathbb{R}$ are continuous, strictly monotone and $p_1,p_2,q_1,q_2:I\to\mathbb{R}_+$ are unknown functions. The main result of the paper shows that, assuming four times continuous differentiability of $f$, $g$, twice continuous differentiability of $p_1$ and $p_2$ and assuming that $p_1$ differs from $p_2$ on a dense subset of $I$, a necessary and sufficient condition for the equality above is that the unknown functions are of the form $$ f=\frac{u}{v},\qquad g=\frac{w}{z},\qquad \mbox{and}\qquad p_1q_1=p_2q_2=vz, $$ where $u,v,w,z:I\to\mathbb{R}$ are arbitrary solutions of the second-order linear differential equation $F''=γF$ ($γ\in\mathbb{R}$ is arbitrarily fixed) such that $v>0$ and $z>0$ holds on $I$ and $\{u,v\}$ and $\{w,z\}$ are linearly independent.

Fast Bayesian inference for slow-roll inflation

description: We present and discuss a new approach increasing by orders of magnitude the speed of performing Bayesian inference and parameter estimation within the framework of slow-roll inflation. The method relies on the determination of an effective likelihood for inflation which is a function of the primordial amplitude of the scalar perturbations complemented with the necessary number of the so-called Hubble flow functions to reach the desired accuracy. Starting from any cosmological data set, the effective likelihood is obtained by marginalisation over the standard cosmological parameters, here viewed as "nuisance" from the early Universe point of view. As being low-dimensional, basic machine-learning algorithms can be trained to accurately reproduce its multidimensional shape and then be used as a proxy to perform fast Bayesian inference on the inflationary models. The robustness and accuracy of the method are illustrated using the Planck Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) data to perform primordial parameter estimation for the large field models of inflation. In particular, marginalised over all possible reheating history, we find the power index of the potential to verify p < 2.3 at 95% of confidence.

The Book of Hours is a contemporary re-imagining of a medieval book of hours. These were collections of exquisitely hand-illustrated religious readings and accompanying images. They were created in a handy size so they could be carried by the owner and read on a daily basis. This book of hours is secular but the general mood is contemplative and reflective. The poems can be read individually or as a story of growth and change throughout a year. The project is a combination of a collection of written poems and a film poem project, where each of the poems was made into a poetry film in collaboration with international filmmakers, which resulted in a website where the poetry films can be viewed by the public.
This item represents one of the central research output components, The Book of Hours website, which contains the 'calendar of poetry films' produced as part of this project.
Partial monoid actions and a class of restriction semigroups
Creators: name: Kudryavtseva, Ganna
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Rings and Algebras (math.RA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We study classes of proper restriction semigroups determined by properties of partial actions underlying them. These properties include strongness, antistrongness, being defined by a homomorphism, being an action etc. Of particular interest is the class determined by homomorphisms, primarily because we observe that its elements, while being close to semidirect products, serve as mediators between general restriction semigroups and semidirect products or $W$-products in an embedding-covering construction. It is remarkable that this class does not have an adequate analogue if specialized to inverse semigroups. $F$-restriction monoids of this class, called ultra $F$-restriction monoids, are determined by homomorphisms from a monoid $T$ to the Munn monoid of a semilattice $Y$. We show that these are precisely the monoids $Y*_mT$ considered by Fountain, Gomes and Gould. We obtain a McAlister-type presentation for the class given by strong dual prehomomorphisms and apply it to construct an embedding of ultra $F$-restriction monoids, for which the base monoid $T$ is free, into $W$-products of semilattices by monoids. Our approach yields new and simpler proofs of two recent embedding-covering results by Szendrei.

Assessing stochastic algorithms for large scale nonlinear least squares problems using extremal probabilities of linear combinations of gamma random variables

description: This article considers stochastic algorithms for efficiently solving a class of large scale non-linear least squares (NLS) problems which frequently arise in applications. We propose eight variants of a practical randomized algorithm where the uncertainties in the major stochastic steps are quantified. Such stochastic steps involve approximating the NLS objective function using Monte-Carlo methods, and this is equivalent to the estimation of the trace of corresponding symmetric positive semi-definite (SPSD) matrices. For the latter, we prove tight necessary and sufficient conditions on the sample size (which translates to cost) to satisfy the prescribed probabilistic accuracy. We show that these conditions are practically computable and yield small sample sizes. They are then incorporated in our stochastic algorithm to quantify the uncertainty in each randomized step. The bounds we use are applications of more general results regarding extremal tail probabilities of linear combinations of gamma distributed random variables. We derive and prove new results concerning the maximal and minimal tail probabilities of such linear combinations, which can be considered independently of the rest of this paper.

description: We present the largest M31 near-infrared (F110W (close to J band), F160W (H band)) Cepheid sample so far. The sample consists of 371 Cepheids with photometry obtained from the HST PHAT program. The sample of 319 fundamental mode Cepheids, 16 first overtone Cepheids and 36 type II Cepheids, was identified using the median absolute deviation (MAD) outlier rejection method we develop here. This method does not rely on priors and allows us to obtain this clean Cepheid sample without rejecting a large fraction of Cepheids. The obtained Period-Luminosity relations (PLRs) have a very small dispersion, i.e. 0.155 mag in F160W, despite using random phased observations. This remarkably small dispersion allows us to determine that the PLRs are significantly better described by a broken slope at ten days than a linear slope. The use of our sample as an anchor to determine the Hubble constant gives a $3.2\%$ larger Hubble constant compared to the Riess et al. (2012) sample.
description: Accepted for publication in ApJ. Note that the estimate of the Hubble constant changed from the first to the second version. The estimation is now using the difference in the anchor galaxy and therefore the magnitude difference gives an increased Hubble constant

Irreversible energy flow in forced Vlasov dynamics

description: A recent paper [Phys. Plasmas 20, 032304 (2013)] considered the forced linear Vlasov equation as a model for the quasi-steady state of a single stable plasma wavenumber interacting with a bath of turbulent fluctuations. This approach gives some insight into possible energy flows without solving for nonlinear dynamics. The central result of the present work is that the forced linear Vlasov equation exhibits asymptotically zero (irreversible) dissipation to all orders under a detuning of the forcing frequency and the characteristic frequency associated with particle streaming. We first prove this by direct calculation, tracking energy flow in terms of certain exact conservation laws of the linear (collisionless) Vlasov equation. Then we analyze the steady-state solutions in detail using a weakly collisional Hermite-moment formulation, and compare with numerical solution. This leads to a detailed description of the Hermite energy spectrum, and a proof of no dissipation at all orders, complementing the collisionless Vlasov result.

description: Abstract:

Purpose– The aim of this study is not only to find out the influence of Islamic values on social entrepreneurship intentions but also to analyze the role of entrepreneurial education and previous experience in strengthening the influences of Islamist values against social entreprenorial intentions. Grand theories used are Ajzen's TPB theory, Becker's human capital theory and Bandura's social cognitive theory.

Methodology– The research method used is the Explanatory Survey. The sample was taken from a population of Muslim students in Bandung consisting of students of ITB, UPi and UIN, the size of the sample is 250 respondents. Data is aggregated using a numerical scale lift. Data analysis techniques use a Structural Equation Model (SEM) path analysis with the help of Smart PLS version 3.

Findings – Research results show that there is a positive and significant influence between Islamic values on the intensity of social entrepreneurship. Education in entrepreneurship moderates the influence of Islamic values on the intensity of social enterprise.

Originality– It is recommended to increase the renewal of the entrepreneurship curriculum to include aspects of Islamic values. Added valuable references to the theory of TPB, HC and SCT in particular related to Islamic values in Muslim students Bandung.

description: We performed a detailed and, for a large part interactive, analysis of the matching output between the X-CLASS and redMaPPer cluster catalogues. The overlap between the two catalogues has been accurately determined and possible cluster positional errors were manually recovered. The final samples comprise 270 and 355 redMaPPer and X-CLASS clusters respectively. X-ray cluster matching rates were analysed as a function of optical richness. In a second step, the redMaPPer clusters were correlated with the entire X-ray catalogue, containing point and uncharacterised sources (down to a few 10^{-15} erg s^{-1} cm^{-2} in the [0.5-2] keV band). A stacking analysis was performed for the remaining undetected optical clusters. Main results show that neither of the wavebands misses any massive cluster (as coded by X-ray luminosity or optical richness). After correcting for obvious pipeline short-comings (about 10% of the cases both in optical and X-ray), ~50% of the redMaPPer (down to a richness of 20) are found to coincide with an X-CLASS cluster; when considering X-ray sources of any type, this fraction increases to ~ 80%; for the remaining objects, the stacking analysis finds a weak signal within 0.5 Mpc around the cluster optical centers. The fraction of clusters totally dominated by AGN-type emission appears to be of the order of a few percent. Conversely ~ 40% of the X-CLASS clusters are identified with a redMaPPer (down to a richness of 20) - part of the non-matches being due to the fact that the X-CLASS sample extends further out than redMaPPer (z<1 vs z<0.6); extending the correlation down to a richness of 5, raises the matching rate to ~ 65%.

description: Necrotising fasciitis (NF) is a severe soft tissue infection that is associated with a high risk of morbidity and mortality. During the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic, the population has been actively discouraged from presenting to emergency medical services unless absolutely necessary. While this was an important step in allowing for preservation of limited resources in a time of crisis, it may have resulted in immeasurable ‘secondary victims’ of the pandemic as patients with time-critical conditions delay hospital presentation. In this case series, we describe three patients that noted symptoms of soft tissue infection, but delayed seeking healthcare advice due to concerns regarding COVID-19 exposure. All three progressed to NF, requiring highly morbid wide surgical debridement and prolonged hospital admission, with a high risk of potential mortality. The findings of this series demonstrate the importance of consistently delivering appropriate and timely healthcare interventions to patients with non-COVID-19-related conditions. While efforts must be made to ensure preservation of valuable healthcare resources in a global pandemic, patients must also be empowered to seek timely care for non-COVID-19-related conditions even in this time of crisis.

description: We present a method to control the two-dimensional shape of traveling wave solutions to reaction-diffusion systems, as e.g. interfaces and excitation pulses. Control signals that realize a pre-given wave shape are determined analytically from nonlinear evolution equation for isoconcentration lines as the perturbed nonlinear phase diffusion equation or the perturbed linear eikonal equation. While the control enforces a desired wave shape perpendicular to the local propagation direction, the wave profile along the propagation direction itself remains almost unaffected. Provided that the one-dimensional wave profile and its propagation velocity can be measured experimentally, and the diffusion coefficients of the reacting species are given, the new approach can be applied even if the underlying nonlinear reaction kinetics are unknown.

description: Since the industrial revolution consumers have been caused detriment and left with very little option when a company they are dealing with becomes insolvent. Consumers may have placed a deposit on goods not yet received, purchased gift cards not yet used, or have a product warranty not yet expired. These consumers can apply to become an unsecured creditor of the insolvent company with low prospect of a return. There are, however, a small number of consumer groups such as investors in the Stock Market, Home Builders and Employees of insolvent companies who have been supported by government action. Governments in other jurisdictions such as the USA and the European Union have also enacted this support action. This thesis explores the regulatory developments behind those government actions in Australia, USA and the EU using doctrinal analysis and draws a comparative analysis. Using the Bank Deposit Insurance scheme model, used in most countries of the world, as a basis, the thesis then develops legislative guidelines for a compensation scheme to support all consumers who may have been caused detriment when a company ceases to trade.

The GDR calculated in $ ^{92-108}\text{Mo}$ are presented, and compared with the available experimental data. An overall agreement between them is obtained. Moreover, the dipole strength in $ ^{102-108}\text{Mo}$ is predicted. Shape phase transition from spherical to oblate as well as shape coexistence (A $\sim$ 100) in Mo isotopes are also investigated in this work. In addition, the correlation between the deformation splitting $ΔE$ and the quadrupole deformation parameter $β_{2}$ is studied. The results confirm that $ΔE$ is proportional to the deformation of nucleus. We also discuss the dependence of GDR strength on some nuclear properties of Skyrme forces, such as the asymmetry energy $a_{s}$. We find that $a_{s} = 32 MeV$, corresponding to SLy6, is quite consistent with experimental data.

description: We present black hole type solutions in the scalar-tensor theory with nonminimal derivative coupling to the Einstein tensor. The effects of the nonminimal derivative coupling appear in the large scales, while the solutions approach those in the Einstein gravity in the small scales. For the particular coupling constant tuned to the inverse of the cosmological constant, the scalar field becomes trivial and the solutions in the Einstein gravity are recovered. For the other coupling constant, more general solutions can be obtained. If the two-dimensional maximally symmetric space is a two-sphere, the spacetime structure approaches anti-de Sitter spacetime in the large scales. On the other hand, if the two-dimensional space is a two-hyperboloid, the spacetime approaches de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. If it is a flat space, the cosmological constant affects only the amplitude of the scalar field. The extension to the higher-dimensional case is also straightforward. For a certain range of the negative cosmological constant, thermodynamic properties of a black hole are very similar to those of the Schwarzschild-AdS black hole in the Einstein gravity.

description: We compute the Bayesian evidence and complexity of 193 slow-roll single-field models of inflation using the Planck 2013 Cosmic Microwave Background data, with the aim of establishing which models are favoured from a Bayesian perspective. Our calculations employ a new numerical pipeline interfacing an inflationary effective likelihood with the slow-roll library ASPIC and the nested sampling algorithm MULTINEST. The models considered represent a complete and systematic scan of the entire landscape of inflationary scenarios proposed so far. Our analysis singles out the most probable models (from an Occam's razor point of view) that are compatible with Planck data, while ruling out with very strong evidence 34% of the models considered. We identify 26% of the models that are favoured by the Bayesian evidence, corresponding to 15 different potential shapes. If the Bayesian complexity is included in the analysis, only 9% of the models are preferred, corresponding to only 9 different potential shapes. These shapes are all of the plateau type.

description: In light of the recent BICEP2 B-mode polarization detection, which implies a large inflationary tensor-to-scalar ratio r_{0.05}=0.2^{+0.07}_{-0.05}, we re-examine the evidence for an extra sterile massive neutrino, originally invoked to account for the tension between the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature power spectrum and local measurements of the expansion rate H0 and cosmological structure. With only the standard active neutrinos and power-law scalar spectra, this detection is in tension with the upper limit of r<0.11 (95% confidence) from the lack of a corresponding low multipole excess in the temperature anisotropy from gravitational waves. An extra sterile species with the same energy density as is needed to reconcile the CMB data with H0 measurements can also alleviate this new tension. By combining data from the Planck and ACT/SPT temperature spectra, WMAP9 polarization, H_0, baryon acoustic oscillation and local cluster abundance measurements with BICEP2 data, we find the joint evidence for a sterile massive neutrino increases to DeltaNeff=0.98\pm 0.26 for the effective number and ms= 0.52\pm 0.13 eV for the effective mass or 3.8 sigma and 4 sigma evidence respectively. We caution the reader that these results correspond to a joint statistical evidence and, in addition, astrophysical systematic errors in the clusters and H0 measurements, and small-scale CMB data could weaken our conclusions.

description: In Belgium, the mandatory inspection of field and orchard sprayers was already started up in 1995. At that time, there were only inspection protocols available for those two types of sprayers. From 2008 on, two new inspection protocols were developed: one for greenhouse sprayers and one for soil-disinfection machines. Those inspection protocols were added to the Belgian legislation and implemented since 2011. The inspection protocol for greenhouse sprayers was mainly based on the two existing protocols (field and orchard sprayers) as the working principle of those machines was similar.  Soil disinfection machines used on Belgian territory needed another approach because of the differences in pressurising and application technique compared to classical spraying machines. Soil disinfection machines use a closed tank containing the vaporous disinfectant. The tank is pressurised by a compressor or a diving cylinder. As concerns the injector side of those machines there are different possibilities. Some are using a manifold with restrictor plates or a small tap per injector, others use narrow tubes towards the injectors, and sometimes nozzles are used. As one can see, there are no standard inspection methods available for those types of machines. Neither a standard spray pattern measurement, nor a separate pressure and nozzle testing is possible on most of those machines. On top there are some important safety aspects that need special attention due to the hazardous products used. The Belgian inspection protocol was almost completely developed in-house and makes it possible to inspect soil-disinfection machines in an accurate, safe and economical way.

Inoculation with microorganisms

description: Soil microbial inoculants are microorganisms that are used as sustainable alternatives to conventional inorganic fertilizers (biofertilizers), carry out specific functions including biocontrol of pests and diseases (biopesticides), or are used for bioremediation and enhancement of soil characteristics. Some soil inoculants such as nitrogen-fixing rhizobia have a long and successful history of use, but many new products perform inconsistently in the field. Better understanding of how soil inoculants interact with plants and the soil environment is helping to improve their effectiveness, as is the development of improved formulations and delivery systems.

description: In "Tunnel one, fibered links", the second author showed that the tunnel of a tunnel number one, fibered link can be isotoped to lie as a properly embedded arc in the fiber surface of the link. In this paper, we analyze how the arc behaves under the monodromy action, and show that the tunnel arc is nearly clean, with the possible exception of twisting around the boundary of the fiber.

description: The most popular hypothesis testing procedure, the likelihood ratio test, is known to be highly non-robust in many real situations. Basu et al. (2013a) provided an alternative robust procedure of hypothesis testing based on the density power divergence; however, although the robustness properties of the latter test were intuitively argued for by the authors together with extensive empirical substantiation of the same, no theoretical robustness properties were presented in this work. In the present paper we will consider a more general class of tests which form a superfamily of the procedures described by Basu et al. (2013a). This superfamily derives from the class of $S$-divergences recently proposed by Basu et al. (2013a). In this context we theoretically prove several robustness results of the new class of tests and illustrate them in the normal model. All the theoretical robustness properties of the Basu et al. (2013a) proposal follows as special cases of our results.

description: The magnetic and iron vacancy orders in superconducting (Tl,Rb)2Fe4Se5 single-crystals are investigated by using a high-pressure neutron diffraction technique. Similar to the temperature effect, the block antiferromagnetic order gradually decreases upon increasing pressure while the Fe vacancy superstructural order remains intact before its precipitous disappearance at the critical pressure Pc = 8.3 GPa. Combined with previously determined Pc for superconductivity, our phase diagram under pressure reveals the concurrence of the block AFM order, the iron vacancy order and superconductivity for the 245 superconductor. A synthesis of current experimental data in a coherent physical picture is attempted.
