description: People are one of the most important entities that AI systems would need to understand to be useful and ubiquitous. From autonomous cars observing pedestrians to assistive robots helping the elderly, a large part of this understanding is focused on recognizing human actions, and potentially, their intentions. Humans themselves are quite good at this task: we can look at a person and
explain in great detail every action they are doing. Moreover, we can reason over those actions over time, and even predict what potential actions they may intend to do in the future. Computer vision algorithms, on the other hand, have lagged far behind on this task. In this thesis, we explore techniques to improve human action understanding from visual input. Our key insight is that actions are dependent on the global state of the person’s environment
(parameterized by the scene, objects and other people in it), apart from their own local state (parameterized
by their pose). Additionally, modeling the temporal state of the actors and their environments (motion of people and objects in the scene) can further help in recognizing human
actions. We exploit these dependencies in three key ways: (1) Detecting, tracking, and using the actors’ pose to attend to the actors and their context; (2) Using this context to place a prior over possible actions in the scene; and (3) Building systems capable of learning from and aggregating
this local and contextual information over time, to recognize human actions. However, these methods still mostly look at short time scales. Tackling the goal of recognizing
human intentions would require reasoning over long temporal horizons. One reason for the limited progress in this direction is the lack of computer vision benchmarks that actually require such reasoning. Most video action classification problems are solved fairly well using our previously explored methods by looking at just a few frames. Hence, to remedy that, we propose a new benchmark dataset and tasks that, by design, require reasoning over time to be solved. We believe this would be a first step towards building truly intelligent video understanding systems.

description: The microwave-assisted Cannizzaro reaction was studied in order to develop fully reproducible synthetic protocols for transformation of aldehydes to carboxylic acid and alcohols. Optimised were the following process parameters: power, temperature, and time. Aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic aldehydes were used in the studies. It was found that furfural, thiophene-2-carbaldehyde, pyridinecarboxaldehyde and aromatic aldehydes react under mild conditions, while 1-methyl-pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde derivatives and aliphatic aldehydes require more drastic reaction conditions and a longer exposure time to microwave radiation.

description: Adversarial attacks are small, carefully crafted perturbations, imperceptible to the naked eye; that when added to an image cause deep learning models to misclassify the image with potentially detrimental outcomes. With the rise of artificial intelligence models in consumer safety and security intensive industries such as self-driving cars, camera surveillance and face recognition, there is a growing need for guarding against adversarial attacks. In this paper, we present an approach that uses metamorphic testing principles to automatically detect such adversarial attacks. The approach can detect image manipulations that are so small, that they are impossible to detect by a human through visual inspection. By applying metamorphic relations based on distance ratio preserving affine image transformations which compare the behavior of the original and transformed image; we show that our proposed approach can determine whether or not the input image is adversarial with a high degree of accuracy.

description: As university dropout rates increase, implementing innovative solutions is crucial to reduce attrition. Aligning students’ interests with their study programs enhances academic success, satisfaction, and retention. This paper presents a novel approach using open-source Large Language Models (LLM) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to develop a semi-open-domain knowledge chatbot. The chatbot generates informed responses and recommendations to diverse student queries by retrieving relevant data while maintaining ethical standards and avoiding biased responses. When testing five model combinations on 70 prompts partially from real study advisors, results demonstrate that the RAG approach with the Mixtral LLM and RoBERTa embedding model offers superior performance. Our method for handling critical user prompts further indicates a significantly improved response quality. These findings advance service-oriented chatbots in education, aiming to reduce student attrition through accurate and helpful program recommendations.

description: Echo dynamics and fidelity are often used to discuss stability in quantum information processing and quantum chaos. Yet fidelity yields no information about entanglement, the characteristic property of quantum mechanics. We study the evolution of entanglement in echo dynamics. We find qualitatively different behavior between integrable and chaotic systems on one hand and between random and coherent initial states for integrable systems on the other. For the latter the evolution of entanglement is given by a classical time scale. Analytic results are illustrated numerically in a Jaynes Cummings model.

Aufgrund der enormen Relevanz von KI für unsere Gesellschaft ist Bildung über KI bereits in der Schule unerlässlich. Das gemeinnützige Unternehmen KI macht Schule hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt, Bildung über und mit KI in deutschsprachige Schulen zu tragen, damit Schüler:innen fachlich fundiertes Orientierungswissen und zentrale Kompetenzen zu KI erwerben können. In diesem Beitrag stellen wir eine neue Unterrichts- plattform vor, die Lehrkräfte bei der Gestaltung von Unterricht mit und über KI und damit bei der Förderung von AI Literacy im eigenen Unterricht unterstützt. Dafür liefert die Plattform vielfältiges Lehr-Lernmaterial über KI und maschinelles Lernen. Zugleich stellt sie einen flexiblen Zugang zu DSGVO-konformen KI-Tools (u. a. Chatbot, Bildgenerator) und die technische Infrastruktur zur Verfügung, damit Schüler:innen eigene Projekte mit KI und weiteren digitalen Tools umsetzen können. Damit deckt die Plattform neben Kompetenzen im Bereich des Erinnerns, Verstehens und Anwendens auch komplexere kognitive Prozesse ab.

description: This paper addresses the transmission network expansion planning problem considering storage units under uncertain demand and generation capacity. A two-stage adaptive robust optimization framework is adopted whereby short- and long-term uncertainties are accounted for. This work differs from previously reported solutions in an important aspect, namely, we include binary recourse variables to avoid the simultaneous charging and discharging of storage units once uncertainty is revealed. Two-stage robust optimization with discrete recourse problems is a challenging task, so we propose using a nested column-and-constraint generation algorithm to solve the resulting problem. This algorithm guarantees convergence to the global optimum in a finite number of iterations. The performance of the proposed algorithm is illustrated using the Garver's test system.

description: Recent symmetry considerations (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 84} 2358 (2000)) have shown that dc currents may be generated in the stochastic layer of a system describing the motion of a particle in a one-dimensional potential in the presence of an ac time-periodic drive. In this paper we explain the dynamical origin of this current. We show that the dc current is induced by the presence and desymmetrization of ballistic channels inside the stochastic layer. The existence of these channels is due to resonance islands with non-zero winding numbers. The characterization of the flights dynamics inside ballistic channels is described by distribution functions. We obtain these distribution functions numerically and find very good agreement with simulation data.

description: Curriculum for 140 agribusiness and agricultural economics programs were identified and compared against a similar study done in 1985 when the National Agribusiness Education Commission began studying agribusiness programs. We have identified five key findings. First, agribusiness management is now tied with policy as the third most commonly taught undergraduate course in agricultural economics departments (after agricultural marketing and agricultural finance). A required course in farm management has decreased from two-thirds of agribusiness degrees in 1985 to only one-third of such degrees in 2003. Second, many agribusiness degrees are three times as likely to require business finance relative to agricultural economics degrees. Third, no strategy courses were identified as being taught in agribusiness management degrees in 1985. In 2003, 17 such courses were being taught. Strategy is a course that integrates many management concepts. With the exception of an advanced farm management course, no such integrative course was identified in agricultural economics courses. Fourth, a course in business marketing was almost twice as likely to be required in an agribusiness degree relative to an agricultural economics degree. Fifth, a required course that explores the international dimensions of finance, management, marketing, policy, trade, or similar topics remains a severe limitation in most agribusiness and agricultural economics degrees. Finally, it is clear that agribusiness management has become an even more important subject in agricultural economics programs since 1985.
Ultracontractive Properties for Directed Graph Semigroups with Applications to Coupled Oscillators

description: It is now well known that ultracontractive properties of semigroups with infinitesimal generator given by an undirected graph Laplacian operator can be obtained through an understanding of the geometry of the underlying infinite weighted graph. The aim of this work is to extend these results to semigroups with infinitesimal generator given by a directed graph Laplacian operator, through an analogous inspection of the geometry of the underlying directed graph. In particular, we introduce appropriate nomenclature to discuss the geometry of an infinite directed graph, as well as provide sufficient conditions to extend ultracontractive properties of undirected graph Laplacians to those of the directed variety. Such directed graph Laplacians can often be observed in the study of coupled oscillators, where recent work made explicit the link between synchronous patterns to systems of identically coupled oscillators and ultracontractive properties of undirected graph semigroups. Therefore, in this work we demonstrate the applicability of our results on directed graph semigroups by extending the aforementioned investigation beyond the idealized case of identically coupled oscillators.

description: We have studied the charge dynamics of Sr-doped La2CuO4 at hole concentration p =0.07. We observed a clear indication of the competition between two new characteristic collective modes of the Wigner lattice orders suggested earlier: one corresponds to a Tc =15 K superconductivity and the other to Tc =30 K. Our results naturally explain the recent observation of metallic transport in extremely low (1%) Sr-doped La2CuO4 and establish a novel insulator to metal transition mechanismand superconductivity in the two-dimensional Wigner lattice ground state. We suggest that the fluctuations of the relative phase between the superconducting condensate and the Wigner lattice order can provide an answer to the unidentified mode in the c-axis conductivity that appears only below Tc.

description: The giant African snail (Achatina fulica Bowdich) was introduced into Trinidad in October 2008. Immediately the government embarked upon an eradication programme using USDA's "New Pest Guidelines: Giant African Snails" as a guide. By 2012 the pest was well distributed throughout the highest populated districts of the Diego Martin Valley. The main components of the eradication programme were public awareness, surveillance and chemical treatment. These activities by 2012 targeted four (4) core zones and eighteen (18) satellite areas. A. fulica continued to be successfully confined to the Diego Martin Valley. The rest of the island and Tobago were pest free. The data received from the collection of snails (live and dead) between October 2008 and December 2012 showed an annual increase until 2011, followed by a marked decrease (50%) in 2012. The decline in snail populations in 2012 occurred despite high rainfall, flooding and an increase in satellite areas. This decreased resulted through increased surveillance and baiting. Throughout the duration of the programme the total number of snails collected was 34,747 by the end of 2012. An average of 8.2 times more snails were collected in the wet season than in the dry season. The hotline call response methodology acted as a detection system for the pest in Trinidad and Tobago. All valid calls received were investigated and all positive results were within the Diego Martin Valley. The total expenditure from 2009 to 2012 amounted to $6,080,000.00. The total average annual expense for that period was $1,520,000.00. Recommendations made included the continuation of night surveillance and the incorporation of specialized teams.

description: We consider a distance-regular graph $\G$ with diameter $d \ge 3$ and eigenvalues $k=θ_0>θ_1>... >θ_d$. We show the intersection numbers $a_1, b_1$ satisfy $$ (θ_1 + {k \over a_1+1}) (θ_d + {k \over a_1+1}) \ge - {ka_1b_1 \over (a_1+1)^2}. $$ We say $\G$ is {\it tight} whenever $\G$ is not bipartite, and equality holds above. We characterize the tight property in a number of ways. For example, we show $\G$ is tight if and only if the intersection numbers are given by certain rational expressions involving $d$ independent parameters. We show $\G$ is tight if and only if $a_1\not=0$, $a_d=0$, and $\G$ is 1-homogeneous in the sense of Nomura. We show $\G$ is tight if and only if each local graph is connected strongly-regular, with nontrivial eigenvalues $-1-b_1(1+θ_1)^{-1}$ and $-1-b_1(1+θ_d)^{-1}$. Three infinite families and nine sporadic examples of tight distance-regular graphs are given.

description: Nowadays, in societies threatened by atomization, selfishness, short-term thinking, and alienation from political life, there is a renewed debate about classical questions concerning the quality of democratic decision-making. In this work a cellular automata (CA) model for the dynamics of free elections based on the social impact theory is proposed. By using computer simulations, power law distributions for the size of electoral clusters and decision time have been obtained. The major role of broadcasted electoral surveys in guiding opinion formation and stabilizing the ``{\it status quo}'' was demonstrated. Furthermore, it was shown that in societies where these surveys are manipulated within the universally accepted statistical error bars, even a majoritary opposition could be hindered from reaching the power through the electoral path.

description: Quasiparticles represent an intrinsic source of perturbation for superconducting qubits, leading to both dissipation of the qubit energy and dephasing. Recently, it has been shown that normal-metal traps may efficiently reduce the quasiparticle population and improve the qubit lifetime, provided the trap surpasses a certain characteristic size. Moreover, while the trap itself introduces new relaxation mechanisms, they are not expected to harm state-of-the-art transmon qubits under the condition that the traps are not placed too close to extremal positions where electric fields are high. Here, we study a different type of trap, realized through gap engineering. We find that gap-engineered traps relax the remaining constraints imposed on normal metal traps. Firstly, the characteristic trap size, above which the trap is efficient, is reduced with respect to normal metal traps, such that here, strong traps are possible in smaller devices. Secondly, the losses caused by the trap are now greatly reduced, providing more flexibility in trap placement. The latter point is of particular importance, since for efficient protection from quasiparticles, the traps ideally should be placed close to the active parts of the qubit device, where electric fields are typically high.

description: The root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita, is a devastating parasite to sweet pepper and is responsible for yield losses up to 15%. RKN is usually controlled by applying synthetic nematicides which have severe negative effects on human health and the environment. These nematicides have been banned from use and producers now seek alternative eco-friendly nematode management strategies. A greenhouse study was conducted to determine the optimum effective doses of NeMax (sesame extract) and Bio Neem (neem extract), and to compare them with Vydate L to evaluate their efficacy at controlling RNI in sweet pepper. From the results, all nematicides caused a reduction in R. similis population density. NeMax at high rates (80 ml/L) was comparable to Vydate L at reducing RKN by over 80% in the roots (P < 0.05). Bio Neem at recommended rates (15 ml/L) was effective at reducing RKN by 52% in the roots and its efficiency in the soil was comparable to NeMax. Vydate L had the fastest knockdown rate of all nematicides but the continuous nematoxic and nematostatic effects of NeMax and Bio Neem prolonged the reoccurrence rate of RKN. The advantages of using these bio-nematicides and their effects on sweet pepper production are discussed.

 Chevreux, 1891 illustrated in his original description (as well as the following ones in 1900 and Chevreux & Fage, 1925) not only the male of his new species St. dollfusi (in fig. 6), but additionally also of the much later described St. eduardi Krapp-Schickel, 1976 (in Chevreux 1887 fig. 9), causing the repetition of this confusion even in the same paper Krapp-Schickel 1976: 12, fig. 13 as well as in Krapp-Schickel 1993: 697, fig.477. Of course the allometry of Gn2 propodus could have led to a longer size and slimmer width, but the very typical semicircular excavation, shown in fig. 6, is totally lost in his fig. 9, which he does not discuss.
Fact is, that both sexes have quite similar second gnathopods with the typical excavation, which is shallow in juveniles.
Here finally the correction of this more than 100 years old mistake.

Mixed hidden sector/visible sector dark matter and observation of CP odd Higgs at HL-LHC and HE-LHC

description: It is very likely that similar to the case of visible matter, dark matter too is composed of more than one stable component. In this work we investigate a two-component dark matter with one component from the visible sector and the other from the hidden sector. Specifically we consider a $U(1)_X$ hidden sector extension of MSSM/SUGRA where we allow for kinetic and Stueckelberg mass mixing between the two abelian $U(1)'s$, i.e., $U(1)_X$ and $U(1)_Y$. We further assume that the hidden sector has chiral matter which leads to a Dirac fermion as a candidate for dark matter. The lightest neutralino in the visible sector and the Dirac fermion in the hidden sector then constitute the two components of dark matter. We investigate in particular MSSM/SUGRA models with radiative breaking occurring on the hyperbolic branch where the Higgs mixing parameter $μ$ is small (order the electroweak scale) which leads to a lightest neutralino being dominantly a higgsino. While dark matter constituted only of higgsinos is significantly constrained by data on dark matter relic density and by limits on spin independent proton-DM scattering cross section, consistency with data can be achieved if only a fraction of the dark matter relic density is constituted of higgsinos with the rest coming from the hidden sector. An aspect of the proposed model is the prediction of a relatively light CP odd Higgs $A$ (as well as a CP even $H$ and a charged Higgs $H^{\pm}$) which is observable at HL-LHC and HE-LHC. We perform a detailed collider analysis search for the CP odd Higgs using boosted decision trees in $τ_hτ_h$ final states and compare the discovery potential at HL-LHC and HE-LHC. We show that while several of the points among our benchmarks may be observable at HL-LHC, all of them are visible at HE-LHC with much lower integrated luminosities thus reducing significantly the run time for discovery.

description: We calculate generalized parton distribution functions in a field theoretic formalism using a covariant Bethe-Salpeter approach for the determination of the bound-state wave function. We describe the procedure in an exact calculation in scalar Electrodynamics proving that the relevant corrections outside our scheme vanish. We extend the formalism to the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, a realistic theory of the pion. We go in both cases beyond all previous calculations and discover that all important features required by general physical considerations, like symmetry properties, sum rules and the polynomiality condition, are explicitly verified. We perform a numerical study of their behavior in the weak and strong coupling limits.
