Myriophora curvicacumen

description: Myriophora curvicacumen sp. nov.
(Figs 3.1, 10.5, 16.4)
Diagnosis. Female. The oviscape is sclerotized, shiny and tubular throughout most of its length. At the apex, it abruptly becomes laterally flattened and downturned (Fig. 16.4), rendering this species easily distinguishable from all other species of Myriophora.
Description. Female (Fig. 3.1). Body length 1.58 mm. Head: Frons brown, with 2 pairs of supra-antennal setae; length of lower supra-antennal setae greater than 1/2 the length of upper pair; upper supra-antennals originate above lower interfrontal setae. First flagellomere yellow, slightly pointed under arista. Labrum normal sized. Labellum normal sized. Thorax: Scutum dusky yellow. Scutellum dusky yellow. Pleuron yellow; anepisternum bare. Forefemur yellow. Midfemur yellow. Hind femur yellow with brown patch distally on anterior surface. Wing length 1.51 mm (Fig. 10.5); costal vein normal; costa length 0.85 mm; costal ratio 0.54. Knob of halter light brown. Abdomen: Tergites 1 and 2 brown; tergite 2 with strong, distinct setae on lateral margin. Tergite 5 brown; posterior setae on tergite 5 short. Tergite 6 divided in half; posterodorsal setae on segment 6 shorter than posteroventral setae. Venter of abdomen bare, but potentially a few differentiated setae. Oviscape (Fig. 16.4) weakly laterally compressed throughout; division between light brown membrane and dark brown sclerites obscure, as most of oviscape is fused into a shiny tube.
Distribution. Known from one site in Colombia.
Host. Unknown.
Etymology. A noun from Latin for "curved apex" referring to the abruptly, ventrally pointed end of the oviscape.
Holotype. ♀, COLOMBIA: Valle de Cauca: PNN Farallones de Cali, Alto Anchicaya, 3.43°N, 76.8°W, 650m, 21.xi–19.xii.2000, S.Sarria, Malaise trap CAP-1541 [LACM ENT 238780] (IAVH).

description: Collective anisotropic flow, where particles are correlated over the entire event, is a prominent phenomenon in relativistic heavy-ion collisions and is sensitive to the properties of the matter created in those collisions. It is often measured by two- and multi-particle correlations and is therefore contaminated by nonflow, those genuine few-body correlations unrelated to the global event-wise correlations. Many methods have been devised to estimate nonflow contamination with various degrees of successes and difficulties. Here, we review those methods pedagogically, discussing the pros and cons of each method, and give examples of ballpark estimate of nonflow contamination and associated uncertainties in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We hope such a review of the various nonflow estimation methods in a single place would prove helpful to future researches.

Comments
Figure 29 shows a presumed Aquilonastra species. Work by O’Loughlin & Waters (2004) and O’Loughlin & Rowe (2006) dismantled the paraphyletic “ Asterina ”, in conjunction with further species discoveries, some 25 species are now assigned to Aquilonastra, which consists primarily of small, variable morphotypes some of which required dissection or very close examination in order to make proper determination. Multiple known species in southern China being reassigned to different genera, including Indianastra and Aquilonastra. Morphotypes from iNaturalist suggest numerous Aquilonastra species but determination will require further sampling and morphological/molecular phylogenetic analysis.

subject: FOS: History and archaeology

description: This paper discusses how the social views of illicit whiskey distillation in Appalachia changed with the evolving liquor laws from the Civil War to Prohibition. It will also describe how moonshine played a key role in the creation of the Appalachian identity and subsequent negative cultural stereotypes during Reconstruction and onwards. The increase in liquor laws overtime created an increasingly negative sentiment towards moonshine and moonshiners. Through the utilization of newspapers, narratives, cartoons, and photographs, as well as secondary source literature on Appalachian moonshine and foundational work on Appalachian stereotype, the history of social views on moonshine in the region can be analyzed. By specifically looking at the Appalachian regions of Kentucky, West Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, these patterns of moonshine history can be properly analyzed to provide an encompassing Appalachian history, as these states have the largest portions in Appalachia. Overall, the socio-politics of moonshine impacted the Appalachian region from the mid-19th to early 20th century and played a key role in how the U.S. viewed the Appalachians and how the Appalachians viewed themselves.

Normalization and differentiation in Google News: a multi-method analysis of the world's largest news aggregator
Creators: name: Wang, Qun
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: This dissertation examines the history, evolution, and influence of Google News—Google’s news aggregation service—from the late 1990s to 2019. There are scattered studies about Google News, but no systematic and substantive research on what is, at this writing, its nearly two decades of existence. Those two decades happened to be a period of time that witnessed the intense digital transformation of the media industry and our society. Both the object of the study and the timeframe this study examines are significant to understand the changing media and technology environment in the 21st century. Drawing on normalization and differentiation theoretical frameworks, this dissertation combines traditional research methods and computational approaches to conduct historical research, web archival analysis, legal analysis, algorithm analysis, and more. In six chapters, this dissertation traces the origin and early history of Google News; the structural, visual, and functional evolution on the Google News homepage design since its launch in 2002; disputes about Google and its news aggregation service in different parts of the world; Google’s news-related technologies and algorithms; and Google’s systematic initiatives in the news area and their influences. Based on the analysis of the normalization and differentiation trends and the driving forces behind these trends, this study proposes an N-D-N theoretical model that conceptualizes Google’s development in the news area and the interaction between Google and the news industry. The dissertation concludes with a discussion about the implications of the N-D-N model for policymaking on platform governance and the future of journalism. Using Google News as a case study, this dissertation provides a snapshot of the changing media landscape in the digital era. It also makes theoretical and empirical contributions to the ongoing conversation about the interrelationship between digital platforms and the traditional media industry.

(with synonym Asterina orthodon Fisher)
FIGURE 30
Comments
A species characterized by a strongly petaloid shape with flat abactinal plates, carrying a chevron of 10–15 spinelets, actinal plates with a linear series of 3–5 spinelets, 10–12 marginal spines and 5–6 furrow spines. Liao & Clark (1995) describe this species as being a dull green, with a red central patch, edged with yellow and off white on the actinal surface. Some individuals were exceptionally red-salmon colored. Asterina orthodon, as described by Fisher, (1922) is a synonym as per Waters & O’Loughlin (2004). A recent review of this species is summarized in Marsh & Fromont (2020).
Nothing is known regarding its feeding habits or ecology, although it seems likely similar to other small asterinids, such as Aquilonastra, in feeding on debris and microfilm present on the substratum (Jangoux 1982).

Comments
A widely occurring genus of Astropectinidae, including approximately 100 known, extant species, present in primarily shallow habitats in cold-water, temperate and tropical settings in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. Astropecten species are documented as primarily infaunal predators (Jangoux 1982) occurring partially buried in loosely consolidated sediments, swallowing various mollusks present in these habitats as prey.
We confirm three species in Hong Kong of the seven species listed by Liao & Clark (1995) as occurring in south China waters. Two of these species, Astropecten kagoshimensis deLoriol and Astropecten umbrinus Grube were listed as being of “dubious provenance.”

Comments
A conspicuous species among the southern China Astropecten species, in that it completely lacks spines from all of the superomarginal plates. Although not included as an image herein, recent photos of this species in Hong Kong have turned up on iNaturalist (Gohulee 2023, Sai_yeung_choi 2023). Based on these observations there appear to be at least two color variants, one is a more solid colored pink-grey with a dark stripe along its arm versus the latter which is grey with dark bands and patterns on the disk. Future sampling of these specimens may reveal greater significance to these differently patterned variants.
Occurrence/Distribution
Hong Kong, exact depth unclear but shallow.
Outside Hong Kong. Throughout the Indo-Pacific. Southern China, including Hainan Island, the Philippines, Indonesia, northern Australia, East Africa and Red Sea, 0– 50 m. (after Clark & Liao 1995; Marsh & Fromont 2020)

FIGURE 31A–D
Comments
This species was identified based on characters outlined by Liao & Clark (1995). Astropecten polyanthus displays a very similar appearance to Astropecten vappa Müller & Troschel 1842 with which it shares several characters. The key diagnostic character used to identify this species was the nearly vertical edge formed by the superomarginal plates along each arm upon which multiple spines were present along the arm’s length. Comparisons with A. vappa show a minor but more prominent facing of the superomarginal plates along the surface of the abactinal surface. The two species appear closely related and molecular phylogeographic data presented by Zulliger & Lessios (2010) for Astropecten spp. showed that A. vappa from Brunei clustered with a clade within A. polyacanthus from New Zealand.
Astropecten polyacanthus is widely occurring throughout the Indo-Pacific but was listed by Liao & Clark (1995) as “nowhere abundant” on the southern coast of China. Zulliger & Lessios (2010) included multiple representatives from multiple localities of A. polyacanthus in their molecular phylogeography of Astropecten spp. Their data suggested multiple lineages were present within the morphospecies across its range.
Observations of A. polyacanthus (Jangoux 1982) suggest that it displays feeding preferences and behavior similar other Astropecten spp. with gut contents showing remains from gastropods, bivalves, echinoderms and crustaceans.
This species has been mostly commonly observed with five rays. There is however, one observation of a 6-armed specimen (Fig. 31C–D) from Trio Island in Hong Kong, which has not previously been reported from this region.

description: Nominal algebra includes $α$-equality and freshness constraints on nominal terms endowed with a nominal set semantics that facilitates reasoning about languages with binders. Nominal unification is decidable and unitary, however, its extension with equational axioms such as Commutativity (which has a finitary first-order unification type) is no longer finitary unless permutation fixed-point constraints are used. In this paper, we extend the notion of nominal algebra by introducing fixed-point constraints and provide a sound semantics using strong nominal sets. We show, by providing a counter-example, that the class of nominal sets is not a sound denotation for this extended nominal algebra. To recover soundness we propose two different formulations of nominal algebra, one obtained by restricting to a class of fixed-point contexts that are in direct correspondence with freshness contexts and another obtained by using a different set of derivation rules.
Trading quality for resource consumption through approximation management
Creators: name: Liu, Liu
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: The goal of traditional optimizations is to map applications onto limited machine resources such that application performance is maximized while application semantics (program correctness), is preserved. Semantics is thought of as a unique mapping from inputs to outcomes. Relaxing application semantics through approximations has the potential of orders of magnitude performance improvements by trading off outcome quality for resource usage. Here, an execution outcome is not only based on its inputs but also resource availability and user quality expectations. Emerging approximation techniques provides various ways to trade-off output quality for lower resource consumption. However, as a developer, the guidance and support on how to utilize the power of approximation in everyday applications are limited and rarely discussed in recent works. The offline training overhead to support approximation is usually huge, but often be treated as "free." Besides, it is surprising that end-users involvement is always overlooked when determining the quality notion, which should be highly subjective. Finally, supporting approximation in a multi-programming environment is crucial to let approximation be widely accepted as a general technique. In this dissertation, I introduce RAPIDS, Reconfiguration, Approximation, Preferences, Implementation, Dependencies, and Structure, a framework for developing and executing applications suitable for dynamic configuration management for approximate computing. The main contribution of RAPIDS is its design to address the above concerns through exploiting the different expertise/strengths of the three actors (developers, users, applications) involved. I conduct comprehensive experiments and show that RAPIDS is adaptive and extendable by providing customizable configuration spaces for developers and the support for customizable quality for end-users. It has low overheads and small cross-platform porting costs. I also introduce an extension of RAPIDS, RAPIDS-M (Rapids for Multi-programming), which is the first system that discusses cross-application approximation management. The target is to understand and overcome the challenges in approximation management fundamentally, then let both developers and end-users benefit from approximation with little extra efforts so that a wider audience can accept the technique.
Development of an efficient RGB-D annotation tool for video sequence
Creators: name: Ren, Baozhang

description: With the prevalence of neural networks and deep learning models, more data is required to expand the domain as well as to improve the accuracy of those models. There are numerous annotation tools and software of RGB data aiming to make the labeling process less gradual and more efficient while maintaining the same accuracy as traditional methods. However, fewer such efforts have been made in the RGB-D domain. This paper provides a novel RGB-D annotation tool that is designed to efficiently generate object poses in images or video sequences. The tool is equipped with functions, such as removing background points, interactive marker, to aid annotation, as well as ICP to lower the number of frames that need to be labeled in a video sequence.

description: We report spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy measurements of an Anderson impurity system in MoS$_{2}$ mirror twin boundaries, where both the quantum confined impurity state and the Kondo resonance resulting from the interaction with the substrate are accessible. Using a spin-polarized tip, we observe magnetic field induced changes in the peak heights of the Anderson impurity states as well as in the magnetic field-split Kondo resonance. Quantitative comparison with numerical renormalization group calculations provides evidence of the notable spin polarization of the spin-resolved impurity spectral function under the influence of a magnetic field. Moreover, we extract the field and temperature dependence of the impurity magnetization from the differential conductance measurements and demonstrate that this exhibits the universality and asymptotic freedom of the $S=1/2$ Kondo effect. This work shows that mirror twin boundaries can be used as a testing ground for theoretical predictions on quantum impurity models.

Diagnosis
Extensive description of this species is present in Fisher (1913, 1919). A brief summary of details from Fisher (1919) is included herein for convenience.
Body strongly stellate (R/r=4.5), arms slender and narrow, interradial arcs acute. Abactinal region narrow, paxillae from interradial area with 15–18 peripheral and 8–12 central, terence, slender, blunt or bluntly pointed spinelets, longer than the low tabular. Many paxillae with an inconspicuous central fasciculate or fasciculatepectinate pedicellaria with 4–6 spiniform jaws.
Marginal plates block-like forming conspicuous border around periphery. Plates covered with small, slender appressed squamiform spinelets, which become enlarged distally along the arm into 1 to 3 short appressed spineless. Inferomarginals bearing a slightly oblique comb of proximally five distally three or four slender, appressed sharp spines. General covering of the plates consists of appressed, uncrowded squamules round tipped proximally on ray becoming more pointed distally.
Actinal intermediate plates small forming a single series extending to the tenth inferomarginal or less than 1/3 of arm length. Actinal plates bear spaced groups of lanceolate, papilliform, blunt spinelets, 4–8. The central spinelet enlarged in a minority of these groups. Minority of adambulacrals with a pectinate or fasciculate pectinate pedicellaria with 6 –8 tech.
Adambulacral plate with furrow spines, 7–8 with shortest on the lateral spines, so that the end of the spine has a curved contour. Subambulacral spines, 4–7 in a single series becoming 8–10 in two or three series distally. These latter distal subambulacrals much shorter than the furrow spines. Oral plates with 14–16 spinelets.
Comments
Although published by Fisher (1913, 1919) as part of his Indonesia /Philippine monograph, this species was apparently collected from two localities off the coast of Hong Kong (holotype from 20º37’ N, 115º43’ E, 416 m). CASIZ 28462 is mentioned in Fisher (1919: 123) as the specimen collected “near type-locality.” Fisher doubted the collection depth which he mentioned as “probable error in locality.” This species was not included in past inventories from Hong Kong which included only coverage of shallow-water species (e.g. A.M. Clark 1980).

Machine learning based image segmentation for large-scale osteoarthritis analysis
Creators: name: Tan, Chaowei
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease worldwide, tending to occur in the joints of hip and knee. Large adult population in the United States have been affected by OA, and by 2030, an estimated 20 percent of Americans (about 70 million people) may be at increased risk for this disease. Effective medical image segmentation methods play fundamental roles in the clinical analysis of the disease. In this dissertation, three machine learning based segmentation for knee cartilage, femoral head-neck junction and thigh muscular/adipose tissue are discussed, respectively. Furthermore, large-scale OA analysis on the knee and hip joints could be further implemented based on these segments.Knee cartilages (i.e., femoral, tibial, and patellar cartilage) are essential tissue for knee radiographic OA diagnosis. Effective segmentation of knee cartilages in large-sized and high-resolution 3D magnetic resonance (MR) data is firstly proposed. The key contribution is an adversarial learning based collaborative multi-agent network. The method employs three parallel segmentation agents to label cartilages in their respective region of interest (ROI), and then fuses the three cartilages by a ROI-fusion layer and drive a collaborative learning by an adversarial sub-network. The ROI-fusion layer not only fuses the individual cartilages, but also backpropagates the training loss from the adversarial sub-network to each agent to enable joint learning of shape and spatial constraints. The proposed scheme is shown robust and accurate in knee cartilage segmentation, and it is effective for cartilage biomarkers (e.g., surface area, volume) estimation in large-scale quantitative tests. Second, a deep multi-task learning network is exploited for the shape-preserved segmentation of the proximal part of femur (i.e., femoral head and neck) in 2D MR images. This method combines the tasks of region identification and boundary distance regression, and thus enables the task-specific feature learning for continuous segmented object with smooth boundary. This bone joint depiction could help the measurements of the femoral head-neck morphology and reflect the evolution of hip OA. In the last part of the dissertation, the muscular and adipose tissue extraction in 3D MR thigh data is investigated by an integrated framework. Specifically, deformable models and learning based detection/classification are integrated into the framework to enable robust tissue quantification for a large-scale analysis of OA-related thigh tissue changes.

description: The V1298 Tau system (20-30Myr), is a benchmark young multi-planet system that provides the opportunity to perform comparative exoplanetology between planets orbiting the same star right after their formation.
 We present the first atmospheric comparison between two planets in the same transiting system: V1298 Tau b and V1298 Tau c. We derive constraints on the mass of planet b and c (<20M$_\oplus$ at 3$σ$ confidence level and $17_{-6}^{+13} M_{\oplus}$ respectively) and atmospheric metallicity (logZ/Z$_\odot$=-2.04$_{-0.59}^{0.69}$, -0.16$_{-0.94}^{1.15}$ respectively) from atmospheric retrievals. The V1298 Tau planets, are likely to be similar in terms of mass at the current age, implying that both planets are potential sub-Neptune/super-Earth progenitors. However, planet c is expected to lose a higher fraction of its mass compared to planet b given its close proximity to the host star. Alternatively, the observed spectrum of planet c can be explained by atmospheric hazes, which is in contrast to planet b where efficient haze formation can be ruled out. Higher haze formation efficiency in planet c could be due to differences in atmospheric composition, temperature and higher UV flux incident compared to planet b.

THAILAND: 2 females, Chiang Mai, Doi Pui, 18°50′N, 98°53′E, UV lighting, 15 May 2001, S. Sakurai (TYCN).
Diagnosis. This species is recognised readily by its moderate size and unique colour pattern on the dorsum, as mentioned in the key. Further external characters including the male genitalia, along with a habitus image, were provided by Zheng et al. (2004). The female genitalia are described for the first time.
Description. Female genitalia (Figs. 17F–H, 31 L−O): Sclerotised rings narrow, ovoid, relatively contiguous to each other mesally (Figs. 17F, 31N); posterior wall rather with rather wide dorsal structure and interramal lobes (Fig. 31L); anterior part of interramal sclerite with a field of minute processes; dorsal structure with uniformly distributed spinules (Fig. 31M).
Measurements. See Table 1.
Remarks. Although this taxon was described as a member of Neolygus, the dorsal colour pattern, surface structures and form of the male and female genitalia suggest its best placement lies in Paralygocoris, new genus. This mirid is now known from S. China (Yunnan), Thailand and Peninsular Malaysia. Its thermophilic habitat preference in tropical and subtropical zones also implies that it is not a genuine member of Neolygus.
