Tritagonist Theatre: investigating the potential for bystander agency through three interconnected solo performances
Creators: name: Hunt, Ava
Publisher: name: College of Arts, Humanities and Education, University of Derby

Subjects: Solo performance, Applied Theatre, Tritagonist, Tritagonist Theatre, Bystander agency, Bystander rehearsal, solo performance, participatory theatre, Israeli/Palestinian conflict

description: This study demonstrates contribution to the field of knowledge and practice of applied theatre. Over a ten-year period, Ava Hunt researched, co-wrote, performed and toured three solo productions: I’m No Hero (2009, 2010), The Kites Are Flying (2013) and Acting Alone (2014–2018). The productions experimented with form, integrating film, immersive participation, and verbatim/autobiographical storytelling techniques to explore the intractable Israeli–Palestinian conflict, asking: How is solo performance able to engage diverse communities in difficult questions about social justice, and support the development of critical thinking skills to empower bystanders and to make a difference to marginalised communities? Hunt, an artist, researcher and teacher, utilised a/r/tography, a practice-based research methodology (Springgay, Irwin, Leggo and Gouzouasis, 2008), to propel the development of the three productions and the published work. I’m No Hero (INH) interwove the heroic acts of two women: Irena Sendler (who saved 2,500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto under Nazi occupation) and Rachel Corrie (who was killed by Israeli Defence Forces while protecting Palestinian children). The Kites Are Flying (TKAF) was adapted from Michael Morpurgo’s book for children. Set in Palestine, TKAF explored the pedagogy of hope in oppressed and incarcerated communities. Acting Alone utilised verbatim and autobiographical accounts of field research conducted in Palestine, together with participatory elements, to transform the hierarchical relationship between spectator and performer. These works led to the published article ‘Acting Alone: exploring bystander engagement through performer/audience relationship’ (Hunt, 2019), which is submitted alongside the three performances as a coherent body of four published works. The article coined the term tritagonist audience to empower bystander audiences through offering a rehearsal of agency in relation to an intractable international conflict. This critical appraisal frames and traces the development of Tritagonist Theatre through the four submitted works and proposes a toolkit that can be used in further research, pedagogic practice and applied theatre. The toolkit could be developed further and/or extrapolated to other conflicts. Using the active tritagonist model, the toolkit is intended to contribute to spectator empowerment.
Robust Graph Learning for Misbehavior Detection

description: Recent years have witnessed the thriving of online services like social media, e-commerce, and e-finance. Those services facilitate our daily lives while breeding misbehaved actors like fraudsters and spammers to promote misinformation, gain monetary rewards, or reap end users’ privacy. Graph-based machine learning models have been playing a critical and irreplaceable role in modeling and detecting online misbehaviors. With the assumption that misbehaviors are different from massive regular behaviors, the graph models can leverage the relationship between users from a global perspective and reveal suspicious behaviors as anomalous nodes/edges/graphs. Despite the exceptional performance of graph models, their robustness against adversary and data concept drift is crucial to their sustainability. In my dissertation, I will present three published works and one working paper regarding robust graph learning against misbehaviors. The first work investigates the robustness of the graph-based spammer detection models using a reinforcement learning framework considering the spammers’ adversarial nature. The second work focuses on improving the robustness of the Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) under fraudster detection task by proposing a noisy neighbor filtering approach. The third work leverages GNNs to detect fake news on social media by encoding the news consumption preference of users. The last working paper focuses on sensing the misbehaviors from the graph concept drift perspective. All of my research works only use public-accessible data without IRB review.
An Exploratory Study of Self-Neglect in Adults of All Ages Using Infrequent Home Care as a Proxy Measure

description: An exploratory study of self-neglect was undertaken using a secondary analysis of The Mid-Life in the United States (MIDUS) study. The current study sought to explore self-neglect in a sample of adults of all ages who were not part of a clinical sample frame, to identify potentially useful information about factors that influence self-neglect to inform future research, including research about treatments for self-neglect, and to quantitatively test hypotheses about childhood experiences and adulthood traits that emerged from the qualitative self-neglect literature. The current study used a self-report proxy measure of self-neglect that was appropriate for adults of all ages - infrequent home care. The current study hypothesized that authoritarian parenting, adverse childhood experiences, social isolation, and perceived constraints may be associated with infrequent home care. Perceived constraints were significantly associated with infrequent home care. This may suggest that perceived constraints may be associated with self-neglect and warrant further research. The selected proxy measure, infrequent home care, was a limitation related to the secondary nature of the current study. Further research is required to develop measures of self-neglect that are appropriate outside of the Adult Protective Services setting, as well as measures for low to moderate self-neglect.

description: Applying an electric field to polarisable colloidal particles, whose permittivity differs from that of the dispersing medium, generates induced dipoles that promote the formation of string-like clusters and ultimately alter the fluid mechanical and rheological properties. Complex systems of this kind, whose electric-field-induced rheology can be manipulated between that of viscous and elastic materials, are referred to as electrorheological fluids. By dynamic Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the dynamics of self-assembly of dielectric nanocubes upon application of an electric field. Switching the field on induces in-particle dipoles and, at sufficiently large field intensity, leads to stringlike clusters of variable length across a spectrum of volume fractions. The kinetics of switching from the isotropic to the string-like state suggests the existence of two mechanisms, the first related to the nucleation of chains and the second to the competition between further merging and separation. We characterise the transient unsteady state by following the chain length distribution and analysing the probability of transition of nanocubes from one chain to another over time. Additionally, we employ passive microrheology to gain an insight into the effect of the electric field on the viscoelastic response of our model fluid. Not only do we observe that it becomes more viscoelastic in the presence of the field, but also that its viscoelasticity assumes an anisotropic signature, with both viscous and elastic moduli in planes perpendicular to the external field being larger than those along it.

description: A study on the causes of term limits at the local level of government in the United States was carried out using a qualitative, case study approach. Twenty cases of local government that experienced campaigns to implement term limits were examined through public record and various media sources. Information on the political actors, elected officials, and electorate of each case was collected in all cases, and the narratives of each movement were examined from the birth of each movement to its current state. Comparisons of all cases were then conducted, examining them through the lens of Progressive values.

description: We present a method for improving measurements of the entanglement Rényi entropies in quantum Monte Carlo simulations by relating them with measurements of participation Rényi entropies. Exploiting the capability of building improved estimators for the latter allows to obtain very good estimates for entanglement Rényi entropies. When considering a full system instead of a bipartition, the method can be further ameliorated providing access to the thermodynamic Rényi entropies with high accuracy. We also explore a recently-proposed method for the reconstruction of the entanglement spectrum from entanglement Rényi entropies and finally show how potential entanglement Hamiltonians may be tested for their validity using a comparison with thermal Rényi entropies.

description: We introduce DeepJoin, an automated approach to generate high-resolution repairs for fractured shapes using deep neural networks. Existing approaches to perform automated shape repair operate exclusively on symmetric objects, require a complete proxy shape, or predict restoration shapes using low-resolution voxels which are too coarse for physical repair. We generate a high-resolution restoration shape by inferring a corresponding complete shape and a break surface from an input fractured shape. We present a novel implicit shape representation for fractured shape repair that combines the occupancy function, signed distance function, and normal field. We demonstrate repairs using our approach for synthetically fractured objects from ShapeNet, 3D scans from the Google Scanned Objects dataset, objects in the style of ancient Greek pottery from the QP Cultural Heritage dataset, and real fractured objects. We outperform three baseline approaches in terms of chamfer distance and normal consistency. Unlike existing approaches and restorations using subtraction, DeepJoin restorations do not exhibit surface artifacts and join closely to the fractured region of the fractured shape. Our code is available at: https://github.com/Terascale-All-sensing-Research-Studio/DeepJoin.

description: Due to flourish of the Web 2.0, web opinion sources are rapidly emerging containing precious information useful for both customers and manufactures. Recently, feature based opinion mining techniques are gaining momentum in which customer reviews are processed automatically for mining product features and user opinions expressed over them. However, customer reviews may contain both opinionated and factual sentences. Distillations of factual contents improve mining performance by preventing noisy and irrelevant extraction. In this paper, combination of both supervised machine learning and rule-based approaches are proposed for mining feasible feature-opinion pairs from subjective review sentences. In the first phase of the proposed approach, a supervised machine learning technique is applied for classifying subjective and objective sentences from customer reviews. In the next phase, a rule based method is implemented which applies linguistic and semantic analysis of texts to mine feasible feature-opinion pairs from subjective sentences retained after the first phase. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is established through experimentation over customer reviews on different electronic products.

description: In a continuously changing competitive business environment, it is vital to keep optimizing manufacturing processes and improving efficiencies at every stage. Metal rolling mills across the world are challenged with the increasing cost of supply chain logistics, operations and global competition. In the process of rolling and supplying metal in required dimensions, slitting process has key importance of being closer to the customer. In this work, we have analyzed the availability of the slitting equipment and production time losses for different reasons. Within the various causes of time losses, changeover time from one product to another (referred as set change) contributes to maximum time loss and if reduced, it can translate into more production out of the slitting equipment. The Lean and Six Sigma approach used is easy to understand and implement across the industry with little modifications without large capital investments.

description: Moduli spaces of doubly periodic monopoles, also called monopole walls or monowalls, are hyperkähler; thus, when four-dimensional, they are self-dual gravitational instantons. We find all monowalls with lowest number of moduli. Their moduli spaces can be identified, on the one hand, with Coulomb branches of five-dimensional supersymmetric quantum field theories on $\mathbb{R}^3\times T^2$ and, on the other hand, with moduli spaces of local Calabi-Yau metrics on the canonical bundle of a del Pezzo surface. We explore the asymptotic metric of these moduli spaces and compare our results with Seiberg's low energy description of the five-dimensional quantum theories. We also give a natural description of the phase structure of general monowall moduli spaces in terms of triangulations of Newton polygons, secondary polyhedra, and associahedral projections of secondary fans.

description: Интеграция аграрной науки, образования и сельскохозяйственного производства способна решить множество проблем агропромышленного комплекса региона, таких как недостаток квалифицированных кадров, низкий уровень инновационности производства, морально и физически изношенная материально-техническая база, низкая эффективность сельхозпроизводства и т.д. В статье проведен анализ современного состояния АПК Республики Коми и уровня его инновационной активности. Выявлено, что доля инвестиций в сельское хозяйство в Российской Федерации колеблется в пределах 3-4 %, в то же время аналогичный показатель по Республике Коми только в 2017 г. достиг отметки в 1%. Такая диспропорция приводит к отставанию сектора сельского хозяйства в развитии, в сравнении с другими регионами. При этом уровень инновационной активности продолжает снижаться.Предложены концепция объединения научных, образовательных учреждений с бизнесом в форме агротехнопарка и структура такого объединения, которая включает в себя следующие звенья: управленческое, образовательное, научное и производственное. Концепция функционирования агротехнопарка базируется на развитии инновационного предпринимательства и повышении наукоемкости сельскохозяйственного производства, оптимальном сочетании отраслей производства, рациональном территориальном распределении и кооперации труда, обеспечении необходимой самостоятельности как участников агротехнопарка, так и его звеньев, организации формирования и пополнения фонда агротехнопарка с учетом вклада и экономических интересов его участников, мотивации и координации работы звеньев на базе полной взаимоотдачи и слаженного взаимодействия. Реализация предложенной концепции позволит повысить уровень инновационной активности сельскохозяйственных товаропроизводителей, увеличить количество высококвалифицированных молодых специалистов в хозяйствах и даст стимул к развитию фундаментальной науки.

description: The electrodisintegration of ${}^3\mathrm{He}$ is considered focusing on the effects of the $Δ$ isobar excitation which is treated dynamically on the same footing as nucleons. In the region beyond the quasi-elastic peak the predicted transverse response functions $R_{T}$ and $R_{T'}$ are visibly affected. This leads to sizable $Δ$ isobar effects for inclusive and exclusive electron polarization asymmetries in particular kinematic regions. A measurement performed in the proposed regime could provide judgment for models of nuclear forces and currents.

description: In this study, the contact resistance of various metals to chemical vapour deposited (CVD) monolayer graphene is investigated. Transfer length method (TLM) structures with varying widths and separation between contacts have been fabricated and electrically characterized in ambient air and vacuum condition. Electrical contacts are made with five metals: gold, nickel, nickel/gold, palladium and platinum/gold. The lowest value of 92 Ωμm is observed for the contact resistance between graphene and gold, extracted from back-gated devices at an applied back-gate bias of -40 V. Measurements carried out under vacuum show larger contact resistance values when compared with measurements carried out in ambient conditions. Post processing annealing at 450°C for 1 hour in argon-95% / hydrogen-5% atmosphere results in lowering the contact resistance value which is attributed to the enhancement of the adhesion between metal and graphene. The results presented in this work provide an overview for potential contact engineering for high performance graphene-based electronic devices.

description: A chip to wafer scale, CMOS compatible method of graphene device fabrication has been established, which can be integrated into the back end of the line (BEOL) of conventional semiconductor process flows. In this paper, we present experimental results of graphene field effect transistors (GFETs) which were fabricated using this wafer scalable method. The carrier mobilities in these transistors reach up to several hundred cm$^2$V$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$. Further, these devices exhibit current saturation regions similar to graphene devices fabricated using mechanical exfoliation. The overall performance of the GFETs can not yet compete with record values reported for devices based on mechanically exfoliated material. Nevertheless, this large scale approach is an important step towards reliability and variability studies as well as optimization of device aspects such as electrical contacts and dielectric interfaces with statistically relevant numbers of devices. It is also an important milestone towards introducing graphene into wafer scale process lines.

description: Maintaining orientation while traveling is essential to enabling independent travel for adults who are blind or visually impaired. As one of the defining tasks that dictate spatial behavior, the ability to maintain orientation supports or diminishes the literal and figurative space one inhabits. Survey work with blind and visually impaired travelers has shown that they are forgoing essential trips, in part because of a perceived lack of self-efficacy in travel. This study foregrounds the lived experiences of travelers with visual impairments and blindness as they shared stories of travel in two contexts: work-related travel and travel for leisure. In exploring the phenomenon of orientation in travel, the research seeks to find what facilitators and barriers to independent travel and self-efficacy emerge from the narratives of adults as they describe their travels in two contrasting contexts. This narrative analysis study centers the experiences of five participants across two rounds of interviews and a third interaction of gathering an audio artifact. Inductive coding as well as models for narrative structural and Actantial analysis highlighted the findings: (a) survey knowledge was used to facilitate greater self-efficacy in commute travel and was actively developed by participants to support independence and confidence; (b) leisure travel was not afforded the same dedication to cultivating survey knowledge, rather it was often reliant on routine expertise to enact routes; (c) stories of routes that relied on routine expertise more often led to participant confusion and self-doubt in travel abilities. Participants shared their struggles with travel, but also shared the techniques they had learned outside formal mobility education to support their own feelings of self-efficacy in travel. This narrative analysis study elucidates the role travel context plays in how adults with visual impairments and blindness approach establishing and maintaining their orientation. Through better instruction on the nature of travel, enabled through survey knowledge and routine enaction, it might be possible to support greater feelings of self-efficacy in travelers and improve their quality of life.

description: В современных условиях развития аграрной экономики возникает необходимость регулирования экспортных потоков зерна и продуктов его переработки с целью обеспечения продовольственной безопасности РФ. В статье представлен анализ сложившейся структуры российского экспорта зерна с точки зрения теории сравнительных преимуществ международной торговли. По итогам исследования автор делает вывод, что Россия имеет более низкие по сравнению с США альтернативные издержки производства пшеницы фуражной. В свою очередь США обладает сравнительным преимуществом перед Россией при производстве пшеницы 3-го класса и кукурузы. Результаты работы могут быть положены в основу принятия управленческих решений о стимулировании, либо ограничении экспорта определённых видов сельскохозяйственной продукции.

description: Global development post industrialization has accelerated industrial production, improved the economy, ushered in technological innovation, and improved the quality of life for many. Conversely, it has caused rising emissions, loss of biodiversity, increasing infertility, and an overall unsustainable world. This research evaluates two such effects namely, infertility and unsustainable development. Mathematical models for two biological systems i.e, In-vitro fertilization and global sustainability are proposed, and optimal control techniques are utilized to provide tailored solutions. Firstly, a mathematical method is proposed for the In-vitro fertilization (IVF) process to reduce the overall cost of the process and maintain patient success. This method improves accessibility to infertility treatment by providing customized dosage protocols for each patient thereby reducing the need for daily diagnostic testing. Personalized patient specific dosing profiles are derived using optimal control methods with two models for two widely used IVF dosing protocols. Clinical trials validated the results from this method corroborating the success of this study. Secondly, a global model is developed to represent the dynamics of our planet focusing on the food-energy-water (FEW) nexus with ecological, economic and techno-socio-economic dimensions. This model includes a simplified food-web model in a macroeconomic framework and a rudimentary legal system with the capability to predict the temporal progression of global indicators. Global scale data for stocks and flows of food, energy and water is used to develop and validate the model. Yearly historical data is used to validate global indicators such as human population, gross domestic product (GDP), carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, Nitrous Oxide (NOx) emissions and global water stress. The model results show that current levels of consumption with the accelerated human population growth will lead to an unsustainable world in the future. Thus, an optimal control method based approach is applied to attain a sustainable world by maintaining the ecological systems, reducing emissions while maintaining the rate of economic growth. This work is an attempt to propose science based policy measures targeted towards improved female infertility healthcare, improved health of the ecosystem with sustainable economic growth.

description: Doublet bands observed in $^{124,126,130,132}$Cs isotopes are studied using the recently developed multi-quasiparticle microscopic triaxial projected shell model (TPSM) approach. It is shown that TPSM results for energies and transition probabilities are in good agreement with known energies and the recently measured extensive data on transition probabilities for the bands in $^{126}$Cs. In particular, it is demonstrated that characteristics transition probabilities expected for the doublet bands to originate from the chiral symmetry breaking are well reproduced in the present work. The calculated energies for $^{124,130,132}$Cs are also shown to be in reasonable agreement with the available experimental data. Furthermore, a complete set of the calculated transition probabilities is provided for the doublet bands in $^{124,130,132}$Cs isotopes.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of an eight-week, school-based integrative neuromuscular training (INT) intervention on the fitness levels of seventy-eight, 4-12-year-old children with mild, moderate, or severe symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Children participated in an INT intervention, consisting of three, one-hour sessions per week. Physical fitness was assessed pre-and post-intervention using a modified Eurofit test battery and analysed using a 3x2 ANOVA. This INT intervention resulted in significant improvements of physical fitness (p < .05) pre- to post-intervention (20 m sprint [p = .044], standing broad jump, sit and reach, handgrip and stork balance [p < .001]). Notably, children with severe symptoms of ASD showed significant improvements in standing broad jump (p = .001 [mild vs severe], p = .012 [moderate vs severe]), sit and reach flexibility (p = .002 [mild vs severe], p = .042 [moderate vs severe]), and handgrip strength (p = .001 [mild vs severe], p = .004 [moderate vs severe]) tests in comparison to children with mild and moderate symptoms of ASD. The results of this study support the implementation of a school-based INT intervention to reduce physical fitness disparities, while future studies should employ experimental research designs.

description: Participatory Artificial Intelligence (PAI) has recently gained interest by researchers as means to inform the design of technology through collective's lived experience. PAI has a greater promise than that of providing useful input to developers, it can contribute to the process of democratizing the design of technology, setting the focus on what should be designed. However, in the process of PAI there existing institutional power dynamics that hinder the realization of expansive dreams and aspirations of the relevant stakeholders. In this work we propose co-design principals for AI that address institutional power dynamics focusing on Participatory AI with youth.

Interpretation of high-dimensional numerical results for Anderson transition
Creators: name: Suslov, I. M.
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Existence of the upper critical dimension d_{c2}=4 for the Anderson transition is a rigorous consequence of the Bogoliubov theorem on renormalizability of ϕ^4 theory. For dimensions d\ge 4, one-parameter scaling does not hold, and all existent numerical data should be reinterpreted. These data are exhausted by results for d=4,5 from scaling in quasi-one-dimensional systems, and results for d=4,5,6 from level statistics. All these data are compatible with the theoretical scaling dependencies obtained from self-consistent theory of localization by Vollhardt and Woelfle. The critical discussion is given for a widespread point of view that d_{c2}=\infty.

description: The UN Global Compacts on Refugees and Migration and the EU’s New Migration and Asylum Pact introduce clear objectives to improve the international refugee protection system. Still, they are relatively silent about the means to achieve them. The PROTECT Consortium endeavors to fill this gap. This essay provides a comprehensive presentation of the results of the project. Observing that the main challenge of the international refugee protection system lies in an ideological struggle between the particularistic citizen-alien paradigm and the universalist human-rights paradigm, the project set out to identify configurations of the legal norms, governance systems, and discourses which may spark a transition from the citizen-alien paradigm to the human-rights paradigm. We explore the prospects for building an opportunity structure out of the two UN Global Compacts and the EU New Pact on Migration and Asylum to realize such a transition, assessing the resilience of the identified measures in times of crises, political turbulence, and media pressure. Our findings suggest that a transition to the human-rights paradigm may be achieved by (1) disembedding the refugee and asylum laws, policies, governance, and institutions from those that handle other policy areas that are under national discretion, such as immigration, border, security, and development policy (2) introducing a clear distinction between conceptual tools concerning “refugees/asylum seekers” and “migrants” in citizen, civil society, and media discourses, (3) introducing new measures to protect other protection seeking migrants than those who fall under the categories specified in the Geneva Convention, and (4) implementing the Global Compacts in full. Transitioning to a human rights-based international protection does not necessitate a radical transformation of the current international order. However, it does require that international refugee protection be treated as an exception from the international order’s imperative to impose state sovereignty on nearly all matters.
title: Chasing solidarity: a critical engagement with the hosts of American spirituality podcasts
Creators: name: Fromholz, Gregory
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2023

description: The primary aim of my practice-based PhD is to examine the role that the hosts of American podcasts — particularly those that fall into the categories of Christianity or Spirituality, or both — imagine for themselves: what influence do they consider they have?; what resources are they seeking to provide?; what interests do they bring to their work?; what questions do they have about their work’s efficacy and reach and influence? This research incorporates evidence from interviews with thirteen podcast hosts — some in person and some on Zoom — alongside this critical engagement analysing the insights, content and narratives of those hosts and their podcasts. Though many of these hosts view Spirituality from a place influenced by Christianity, they are not defining it exclusively from a Christian perspective. Consequently, this study endeavours to answer the question: ‘Given the increase in USAbased podcasts that address Spirituality, how do the hosts of these podcasts understand the ways in which they resource or influence the spiritual landscape?’ With over 420 million podcast listeners projected in 2022, this research investigates how hosts of curated podcast conversations seek to influence a deeper understanding of spirituality. The research probes how the emerging “digital field” of spiritual formation is being populated with podcast opportunities. It asks questions of those who seek to influence spiritual formation through digital media and shows, through the voices of prominent hosts/practitioners, how the digital and spiritual co-exist and thrive because of one another. Postman wrote that ‘The clearest way to see through a culture is to attend to its tools for conversation’ (2005). Every new movement finds a new way to communicate outside the institutions previously or even currently leading the way; this sociocultural phenomenon of podcasting is addressed in this written and filmed thesis, Chasing Solidarity: A Critical Engagement with the Hosts of American Spirituality Podcasts. This paper accompanies an original 84-minute, feature-length research documentary film entitled Chasing Solidarity, in which conversations about what is emerging are put forward and analysed.
Of Affects, Processes, and Excesses: Unruly Masculinities in Peruvian Contemporary Visual Productions

description: My dissertation, Of Affects, Processes and Excesses: Unruly Masculinities in Contemporary Peruvian Culture, addresses key questions that both explain, but also further problematize, the way in which gendered bodies – specifically, the male body- is conceived and experienced in Peru. Where scholars have reviewed the formation of Peruvian masculinity from a sociological perspective, an analysis of Peru’s artistic representations of masculinities analyzed through a Gender and Queer perspective, is necessary. Informed by an intersectional, feminist, and decolonial framework, my dissertation focuses on representations of what I recognize as unruly and undisciplined male bodies, emotions, and practices in the visual arts that question conventional assumptions about masculinity. In adopting this critical lens, I demonstrate the necessity to decentralize a hegemonic idea of masculinity while exploring the potential of visual productions to understand masculinities as evolving, multidimensional identities that reflect the complexities of gender, race, history, and political and social discourses in contemporary Peru.
