description: Crime analysis is of upcoming importance for both theory and practice in criminology. The study of offenders’ spatial behavior is an integral part of a more comprehensive understanding of the convergence in physical space between the offenders and their victims (Bernasco, 2014). The journey to crime has been defined as ‘the distances traveled by offenders from their home to crime locations’ (Beauregard & Busina, 2013, p. 2053), and Bernasco (2014) noted that ‘A crime journey thus contain[s] the complete whereabouts of the individual between leaving home and returning, provided a crime was committed during the journey’ (p. 2). Based on these definitions, criminologists mostly studied the offender’s mobility patterns (i.e., the analysis of the spatial patterns from offenders’ residences to crime locations) neglecting to consider the victim’s spatial behavior. The mobility triangles analysis is an approach that allows for a more comprehensive analysis of the journey to crime. This approach integrates a third address to combine with the offender’s residence and the crime location. In the first studies using this approach, this third address corresponded to offenders’ partner residences (Burgess, 1925) or co-offenders’ living spaces (Lind, 1930). However, since Normandeau’s seminal work (1968) this third apex corresponds to the victim’s residence in order to investigate the spatial proximity of the offender’s residence, the victim’s residence, and the crime location. The combination of these geographical points forms a triangle pattern which varies according to the three distances that compose it: the distance between the victim’s and offender’s residences (V-O), the distance between the victim’s residence and the crime location (V-P), and the distance between the offender’s residence and the crime location (O-P). In this chapter we present the fundamentals of the crime mobility triangles approach, focusing on geometric and geographic patterns of crime. Second, we provide an overview of the main published studies in the field. Third, we provide an example using a step-by-step procedure with elderly sexual abuse cases perpetrated by stranger rapists. Fourth, we discuss the main limitations of this approach. The final section deals with the next step to the mobility triangles analysis: the association of covariates to improve our understanding of offenders’ spatial behaviors.

description: Objective: Statistical techniques used to study cognitive function in HIV typically yield normative estimates and can mask the heterogeneity in cognitive trajectories over time. We applied a novel statistical approach to identify clusters of individuals with distinct patterns of change in declarative memory in HIV-seropositive (HIV+) and HIV-seronegative (HIV−) women. Methods: 1731 women from the Women’s Interagency HIV Study, a multi-center, prospective cohort study, completed the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HLVT-R) at >2 visits. To derive subgroups with similar patterns of decline by HIV-serostatus, we used a mixed-effects framework that modeled the trajectory of multiple declarative memory outcomes over time, while simultaneously clustering individuals. Results: Of the 1731 participants, 1149 were HIV+ (70% Black/African American [AA]; 30% White/Other [W/O]) and 582 were HIV− (68% AA; 32% W/O). Race stratification was necessary to optimize clustering. Among HIV+AA’s, four subgroups emerged: a subgroup with minimal decline, two with accelerated decline, and one with stable but low performance. In HIV− AA, three subgroups emerged: one with minimal decline and two with accelerated decline. In multivariable-adjusted models among HIV+, individuals with accelerated decline were less educated (P < 0.001) and more likely to have a history of depression (P < 0.001) versus those with minimal decline. Similar subgroups were identified in W/O HIV+ and W/O HIV− participants. Conclusion: We identified clinically meaningful subgroups of women with distinct phenotypes of declarative memory decline, which depend on race and HIV-serostatus using a data driven approach. Identification of underlying mechanisms and risk factors contributing to the observed differences are warranted. More broadly our modeling approach could be other populations to identify risk factors for accelerated cognitive decline and to personalize interventions.

description: Abstract The Curzon-Ahlborn (CA) efficiency, as the efficiency at the maximum power (EMP) of the endoreversible Carnot engine, has a significant impact on finite-time thermodynamics. However, the CA engine model is based on many assumptions. In the past few decades, although a lot of efforts have been made, a microscopic theory of the CA engine is still lacking. By adopting the method of the stochastic differential equation of energy, we formulate a microscopic theory of the CA engine realized with an underdamped Brownian particle in a class of non-harmonic potentials. This theory gives microscopic interpretation of all assumptions made by Curzon and Ahlborn, and thus puts the results about CA engine on a solid foundation. Also, based on this theory, we obtain analytical expressions of the power and the efficiency statistics for the Brownian CA engine. Our research brings new perspectives to experimental studies of finite-time microscopic heat engines featured with fluctuations.

description: Video surveillance has become ubiquitous in the modern world. Mobile devices, surveillance cameras, and IoT devices, all can record video that can violate our privacy. One proposed solution for this is privacy-preserving video, which removes identifying information from the video as it is produced. Several algorithms for this have been proposed, but all of them suffer from scale issues: in order to sufficiently anonymize near-camera objects, distant objects become unidentifiable. In this paper, we propose a scale-invariant method, based on wavelet decomposition.

description: Training deep neural networks often forces users to work in a distributed or outsourced setting, accompanied with privacy concerns. Split learning aims to address this concern by distributing the model among a client and a server. The scheme supposedly provides privacy, since the server cannot see the clients' models and inputs. We show that this is not true via two novel attacks. (1) We show that an honest-but-curious split learning server, equipped only with the knowledge of the client neural network architecture, can recover the input samples and obtain a functionally similar model to the client model, without being detected. (2) We show that if the client keeps hidden only the output layer of the model to "protect" the private labels, the honest-but-curious server can infer the labels with perfect accuracy. We test our attacks using various benchmark datasets and against proposed privacy-enhancing extensions to split learning. Our results show that plaintext split learning can pose serious risks, ranging from data (input) privacy to intellectual property (model parameters), and provide no more than a false sense of security.

description: Abundant evidence demonstrates the effects of racism in producing and maintaining the nation’s persistent, dramatic racial inequities in rates of HIV infection, cardiovascular disease, cancer and death. Racism has defined the lives of Black people in America for centuries. In recent years, however, instant dissemination of cellphone videos has put the almost routine extrajudicial executions of Black Americans on vivid display. This past spring, the video of George Floyd’s murder by police galvanized the nation into beginning to recognize the impact of racism on Black Americans. Protests for racial justice occurred in more than 2500 US cities and 40% of the nation’s counties, with participation of an estimated 15 to 26 million people, making these recent protests possibly the largest in US history.

description: Distributed deep learning frameworks such as split learning provide great benefits with regards to the computational cost of training deep neural networks and the privacy-aware utilization of the collective data of a group of data-holders. Split learning, in particular, achieves this goal by dividing a neural network between a client and a server so that the client computes the initial set of layers, and the server computes the rest. However, this method introduces a unique attack vector for a malicious server attempting to steal the client's private data: the server can direct the client model towards learning any task of its choice, e.g. towards outputting easily invertible values. With a concrete example already proposed (Pasquini et al., CCS '21), such training-hijacking attacks present a significant risk for the data privacy of split learning clients. In this paper, we propose SplitGuard, a method by which a split learning client can detect whether it is being targeted by a training-hijacking attack or not. We experimentally evaluate our method's effectiveness, compare it with potential alternatives, and discuss in detail various points related to its use. We conclude that SplitGuard can effectively detect training-hijacking attacks while minimizing the amount of information recovered by the adversaries.

description: The spin and lattice dynamics of a ferromagnetic nanoparticle are studied via molecular dynamics and with semi-classical spin dynamics simulations where spin and lattice degrees of freedom are coupled via a dynamic uniaxial anisotropy term. We show that this model conserves total angular momentum, whereas spin and lattice angular momentum are not conserved. We carry out simulations of the the Einstein-de Haas effect for a Fe nanocluster with more than 500 atoms that is free to rotate, using a modified version of the open-source spinlattice dynamics code (SPILADY). We show that the rate of angular momentum transfer between spin and lattice is proportional to the strength of the magnetic anisotropy interaction. The addition of the anisotropy allows full spin-lattice relaxation to be achieved on previously reported timescales of \sim 100 ps and for tight-binding magnetic anisotropy energies comparable to those of small Fe nanoclusters.

Sexual Homicide: An Updated Analysis of the Offender, the Victim and the Offence
Creators: name: Beauregard Eric

Year: 2020

description: Partly due to the brutality of the acts involved (e.g., mutilation of genitalia, dismemberment, foreign object insertion) as well as the apparent randomness of victim selection, sexual homicide is a crime that has always attracted attention from scholars, clinicians, and the police. When looking specifically at the empirical research on this type of crime, we can identify three distinct periods. The first period can be traced back to the early work of Krafft-Ebing. This period was mainly characterized by descriptive or case studies from clinical observations. Although interesting and informative, it was difficult – even impossible – to generalize the findings. The second period saw the proliferation of quantitative studies based on small samples. The pioneer study from the FBI marks the beginning of this period which saw the publication of several typologies as well as comparative studies between sexual homicide offenders (SHOs) and nonhomicidal sex offenders (NHSOs). Research from this period allowed to empirically test some of the ideas suggested in older clinical studies, as well as to build a knowledge base on sexual homicide, something that criminology had been reluctant to do (DeLisi & Wright, 2014). However, these studies were based on relatively small samples that were not representative. Recently, we have entered a third period characterized by empirical research based on large and representative samples. From studies based on 36 SHOs, some of the latest research was undertaken based on samples from 350 to almost 800 cases. Beyond the actual number of cases, these studies have allowed to question some of the findings that emerged from the second period. Furthermore, we have observed a desire from researchers in this field to collaborate between them. Such collaboration has culminated in the publication of the Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Homicide Studies (Proulx, Beauregard, Carter, Mokros, Darjee, & James, 2018) as well as the creation of the Sexual Homicide International Database (SHIelD; Chopin & Beauregard, 2019). Considering the evolution of sexual homicide research over the years, it felt necessary to update what is known on the SHO and his offense. We have identified different areas where significant developments were made, more specifically on the following issues: SHO as a unique type of sex offender; Heterogeneity of sexual homicide; Vulnerable victims in sexual homicide; Sadism and psychopathy and how they relate to sexual homicide, and; International comparisons on sexual homicide. Unfortunately, it was not possible to address all the interesting research that has been produced over the past few years. However, we have targeted some of the most important issues related to the SHO and his crime.

description: BACKGROUND: Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) have been associated with weight gain among women living with HIV. We aimed to investigate the association between INSTIs and change in cardiometabolic risk indicators. SETTING: Retrospective cohort. METHODS: Data from 2006 to 2017 were analyzed from women living with HIV enrolled in the longitudinal Women's Interagency HIV Study who were virally controlled on antiretroviral therapy (ART) for ≥5 consecutive semiannual visits. Women who switched/added an INSTI to ART (INSTI group) were compared with women who remained on non-INSTI ART (non-INSTI group). Outcomes included changes in fasting lipids and glucose, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), blood pressure (BP), and incident diabetes, hypertension, and insulin resistance. Outcomes were measured 6-12 months before and 6-18 months after INSTI switch/add in the INSTI group with comparable visits in the non-INSTI group. Longitudinal linear regression models compared change over time in each outcome by the study group. RESULTS: One thousand one hundred eighteen participants (234 INSTI, 884 non-INSTI) were followed for a median 2.0 (Q1 1.9, Q3 2.0) years. Participants were median age 49 years, 61% Black, and 73% overweight or obese (body mass index ≥25 kg/m). Compared with non-INSTI, the INSTI group experienced greater increases in HbA1c (+0.05 vs. -0.06 mg/dL, P = 0.0318), systolic BP (+3.84 vs. +0.84 mm Hg, P = 0.0191), and diastolic BP (+1.62 vs. -0.14 mm Hg, P = 0.0121), with greatest change in HbA1c among women on INSTIs with ≥5% weight gain. CONCLUSIONS: INSTI use was associated with unfavorable changes in HbA1c and systolic and diastolic BP during short-term follow-up. Further research is needed to understand long-term cardiometabolic effects of INSTI use.

description: The band structure of a crystal may have points where two or more bands are degenerate in energy and where the geometry of the Bloch state manifold is singular, with consequences for material and transport properties. Ultracold atoms in optical lattices have been used to characterize such points only indirectly, e.g., by detection of an Abelian Berry phase, and only at singularities with linear dispersion (Dirac points). Here, we probe band-structure singularities through the non-Abelian transformation produced by transport directly through the singular points. We prepare atoms in one Bloch band, accelerate them along a quasi-momentum trajectory that enters, turns, and then exits the singularities at linear and quadratic touching points of a honeycomb lattice. Measurements of the band populations after transport identify the winding numbers of these singularities to be 1 and 2, respectively. Our work opens the study of quadratic band touching points in ultracold-atom quantum simulators, and also provides a novel method for probing other band geometry singularities.

description: We derive five classes of quantum time-dependent two-state models solvable in terms of the double confluent Heun functions, five other classes solvable in terms of the biconfluent Heun functions, and a class solvable in terms of the triconfluent Heun functions. These classes generalize all the known families of two- or three-parametric models solvable in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions to more general four-parametric classes involving three-parametric detuning modulation functions. The particular models derived describe different non-linear (parabolic, cubic, sinh, cosh, etc.) level-sweeping or level-glancing processes, double- or triple-level-crossing processes, as well as periodically repeated resonance-glancing or resonance-crossing processes. We show that more classes can be derived using the equations obeyed by certain functions involving the derivatives of the confluent Heun functions. We present an example of such a class for each of the three discussed confluent Heun equations.

description: BACKGROUND: Adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is imperative for viral suppression and reducing HIV transmission, but many people living with HIV report difficultly sustaining long-term adherence. Long-acting injectable (LAI) ART has the potential to transform HIV treatment and prevention. However, little LAI ART-related behavioral research has occurred among women, particularly outside of clinical trials. SETTING: Six Women's Interagency HIV Study sites: New York, Chicago, Washington DC, Atlanta, Chapel Hill, and San Francisco. METHODS: We conducted 59 in-depth interviews with women living with HIV across 6 Women's Interagency HIV Study sites (10 per site; 9 at Washington DC). We interviewed women who were not included in LAI ART clinical trials but who receive care at university settings that will administer LAI ART once it is approved. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic content analysis. RESULTS: Most women enthusiastically endorsed monthly LAI ART and would prefer it over pills. The following 3 reasons emerged for this preference: (1) convenience and confidentiality, (2) avoiding daily reminders about living with HIV, and (3) believing that shots are more effective than pills. Challenges remain, however, specifically around (1) medical mistrust, (2) concerns about safety and effectiveness, (3) pill burden for HIV and other conditions, and (4) barriers to additional medical visits. CONCLUSIONS: Most women preferred LAI ART over daily pills given its benefits, including convenience, privacy, and perceived effectiveness. Future research should incorporate more women into LAI ART trials to better understand and align development with user concerns and preferences to enhance uptake.

description: Emerging software-defined networking technologies enable more adaptive communication infrastructures, allowing for quick reactions to changes in networking requirements by exploiting the workload's temporal structure. However, operating networks adaptively is algorithmically challenging, as meeting networks' stringent dependability requirements relies on maintaining basic consistency and performance properties, such as loop freedom and congestion minimization, even during the update process. This paper leverages an augmentation-speed tradeoff to significantly speed up consistent network updates. We show that allowing for a small and short (hence practically tolerable, e.g., using buffering) oversubscription of links allows us to solve many network update instances much faster, as well as to reduce computational complexities (i.e., the running times of the algorithms). We first explore this tradeoff formally, revealing the computational complexity of scheduling updates. We then present and analyze algorithms that maintain logical and performance properties during the update. Using an extensive simulation study, we find that the tradeoff is even more favorable in practice than our analytical bounds suggest. In particular, we find that by allowing just 10% augmentation, update times reduce by more than 32% on average, across a spectrum of real-world networks.

description: We present a stable spectral vanishing viscosity for discontinuous Galerkin schemes, with applications to turbulent and supersonic flows. The idea behind the SVV is to spatially filter the dissipative fluxes, such that it concentrates in higher wavenumbers, where the flow is typically under-resolved, leaving low wavenumbers dissipation-free. Moreover, we derive a stable approximation of the Guermond-Popov fluxes with the Bassi-Rebay 1 scheme, used to introduce density regularization in shock capturing simulations. This filtering uses a Cholesky decomposition of the fluxes that ensures the entropy stability of the scheme, which also includes a stable approximation of boundary conditions for adiabatic walls. For turbulent flows, we test the method with the three-dimensional Taylor-Green vortex and show that energy is correctly dissipated, and the scheme is stable when a kinetic energy preserving split-form is used in combination with a low dissipation Riemann solver. Finally, we test the shock capturing capabilities of our method with the Shu-Osher and the supersonic forward facing step cases, obtaining good results without spurious oscillations even with coarse meshes.

description: The second law of thermodynamics, formulated as an ultimate bound on the maximum extractable work, has been rigorously derived in multiple scenarios. However, the unavoidable limitations that emerge due to the lack of control on small systems are often disregarded when deriving such bounds, which is specifically important in the context of quantum thermodynamics. Here, we study the maximum extractable work with limited control over the working system and its interaction with the heat bath. We derive a general second law when the set of accessible Hamiltonians of the working-system is arbitrarily restricted. We then apply our bound to particular scenarios that are important in realistic implementations: limitations on the maximum energy gap and local control over many-body systems. We hence demonstrate in what precise way the lack of control affects the second law. In particular, contrary to the unrestricted case, we show that the optimal work extraction is not achieved by simple thermal contacts. Our results do not only generalize the second law to scenarios of practical relevance, but also take first steps in the direction of local thermodynamics.

Sex Offenders' Forensic Awareness Strategies
Creators: name: Chopin Julien

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: In criminology, the rational choice perspective assumes that offenders decide whether or not to commit a crime by weighing the effort, rewards, and costs involved in alternative courses of action. One of the most important costs for offenders is to be identified and arrested by police. In order to avoid arrest, offenders have to rely on specific strategies. In sexual assaults, in addition to appropriate target selection, offenders must make sure to avoid police detection by protecting their identity and cleaning up or destroy forensic evidence that may be left at the crime scene and that can directly lead to their identification. This behavior is known as ‘forensic awareness’. Research on forensic awareness strategies during the crime-commission process is scant. A number of studies looking specifically at sexual crimes identified certain strategies related to forensic awareness. According to the rational choice perspective, the use of strategies to avoid police detection should have an impact on the crime solving by police. Few studies have investigated this issue and findings are quite unexpected. The aim of this chapter is to review some of the most important empirical knowledge on the use of forensic awareness strategies in sexual crimes.

description: Inspired by Bondarenko's counter-example to Borsuk's conjecture, we notice some strongly regular graphs that provide examples of ball packings whose chromatic numbers are significantly higher than the dimensions. In particular, from generalized quadrangles we obtain unit ball packings in dimension $q^3-q^2+q$ with chromatic number $q^3+1$, where $q$ is a prime power. This improves the previous lower bound for the chromatic number of ball packings.

description: We study the spatial spread of out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOCs) in coupled map lattices (CMLs) of quasiperiodically forced nonlinear maps. We use instantaneous speed (IS) and finite-time Lyapunov exponents (FTLEs) to investigate the role of strange non-chaotic attractors (SNAs) on the spatial spread of the OTOC. We find that these CMLs exhibit a characteristic on and off type of spread of the OTOC for SNA. Further, we provide a broad spectrum of the various dynamical regimes in a two-parameter phase diagram using IS and FTLEs. We substantiate our results by confirming the presence of SNA using established tools and measures, namely the distribution of finite-time Lyapunov exponents, phase sensitivity, spectrum of partial Fourier sums, and $0-1$ test.

description: Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection among People Living With HIV (PLWH) is not well-described. Objective: To study COVID-19 symptoms and SARS-CoV-2 PCR-based swab testing among participants of the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS) and Women’s Interagency HIV Study (WIHS). Methods: A telephone survey was collected April-June 30, 2020. Symptom and testing prevalence were explored. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine the factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 positivity. Results: The survey was completed by 3411 participants, including 2078 (61%) PLWH and 1333 HIV-seronegative (SN) participants from across the US. Thirteen percent (n = 441) were tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection (13.4% of PLWH vs 12.2% of SN). Among those tested, positivity was higher in PLWH than SN (11.2% vs 6.1%, p = 0.08). Reasons for not being tested included testing not being available (30% of participants) and not knowing where to get tested (16% of participants). Most symptoms reported since January 2020 were similar in PLWH and SN, including headache (23% vs. 24%), myalgias (19% vs 18%), shortness of breath (14% vs 13%), chills (12% vs 10%), fever (6% vs 6%) and loss of taste or smell (6% vs 7%). Among PLWH who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 DNA, the most common symptoms were headache (71%), myalgia (68%), cough (68%) and chills (65%). In multivariable analysis among those tested, the odds of SARS-CoV-2 positivity were higher among PLWH than SN (aOR = 2.22 95%CI = 01.01–4.85, p = 0.046) and among those living with others versus living alone (aOR = 2.95 95%CI = 1.18–7.40). Conclusion: Prevalence and type of COVID-19 symptoms were similar in PLWH and SN. SARS-CoV-2 infection may be elevated among PLWH.

Contributions of Psychological Science on Response to Sexual Assault
Creators: name: Chopin Julien

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: Sexual offending represents one of the most difficult crimes to investigate by the police due in part to the various complexities involved. For instance, contrary to most forms of crime, the sole presence of forensic evidence (e.g., DNA) is often not enough to charge and convict a suspect. In many cases, the notion of consent will need to be debated, which more often than not, comes down to the word of the victim against the offender’s. Therefore, it becomes of the utmost importance to develop various techniques that can be used by the police in their effort to find the truth and charge the right suspect. Although the field of research on sexual violence has traditionally focused its efforts on improving our understanding of the various risk factors related to this form of offending as well as how to best treat and manage these offenders, some researchers have conducted innovative research applied specifically to the investigation of sexual crimes. The aim of this chapter is to review some of the most important findings on sexual offending that can be applied to the police criminal investigation. More specifically, the chapter will start by reviewing some of the misconceptions about “sex offenders” that may mislead an investigation. Then, we will discuss the various studies on suspect prioritization and crime linkage analysis, presenting the best practices. The chapter will also cover the investigative interviewing specific to sexual crimes, focusing on the witnesses, the victims, and the suspects. Moreover, related to interviewing, the chapter will review and discuss the indicators of false rape allegations as well as false confessions. The chapter will review some of the proactive strategies used in sexually-related online crimes and will end with a review of how risk assessment
Syndemic theory, structural violence and HIV among African-Americans

description: Purpose of reviewThis paper will review recent use of syndemic frameworks in HIV research among African-Americans.Recent findingsResearchers have used syndemic theory in diverse African-American study populations, including MSM, cis-women, trans-women, heterosexual men and adolescents. These studies have evaluated the associations between syndemic conditions and a variety of outcomes, such as sexual behaviours, HIV and other sexually transmitted infections, HIV testing, adherence to antiretroviral therapy, HIV suppression and preexposure prophylaxis use. The most frequently evaluated syndemic conditions have been depression, substance use and personal experience of abuse or violence; a few studies have included experience of incarceration and unstable housing.SummaryThese studies have yielded valuable insights into links between HIV-related outcomes and mental health, experience of violence and abuse, and substance use. But a key feature - and major utility - of the syndemics framework is its potential for examining not only synergistic individual-level risk factors but also the interactions with economic, political and social systems that influence these individual-level factors and thereby shape the HIV epidemic among African-Americans. Research that takes these systems into account is needed to inform policy changes that can help end the HIV epidemic in this population.
