description: The ability to distinguish clinically meaningful subtypes of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has recently been examined by machine learning techniques but studies appear to have produced discordant results. The objective of this study is to synthesize the types of HFpEF by examining their features and relating them to phenotypes with adverse prognosis. A systematic search was conducted using the search terms “Diastolic Heart Failure” OR “heart failure with preserved ejection fraction” OR “heart failure with normal ejection fraction” OR “HFpEF” AND “machine learning” OR “artificial intelligence” OR ‘computational biology’. Ten studies were identified and they varied in their prevalence of ten clinical variables: age, sex, body mass index (BMI) or obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or symptom severity (NYHA class or BNP). The clinical findings associated with the different phenotypes in > 85 % of studies were age, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease and worse symptoms severity; an adverse outcome was in 65 % to 85 % of studies identified diabetes mellitus and female sex and in less than 65 % of studies was body mass index or obesity, and coronary artery disease. COPD was a relevant factor in only 33 % of studies. Adverse clinical outcome – death or admission to hospital (for heart failure) defined phenogroups with the worst outcome. Combining the 4 studies that calculated the MAGGIC score showed a significant (p<0.05) linear relationship between MAGGIC score and outcome, using the one-year event rate. A new score based on strength of the evidence of the HFpEF studies analyzed here, using 9 variables (eliminating COPD), showed a significant (p<0.009) linear relationship with one-year event rate. Three studies examined biomarkers in detail and the ones most prominently related to outcome or consistently found in the studies were GDF15, FABP4, FGF23, sST2, renin and TNF. The dominant factors that identified phenotypes of HFpEF with adverse outcome were hypertension, atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease and worse symptoms severity. A new simplified score, based on clinical factors, was proposed to assess prognosis in HFpEF. Several biomarkers were consistently elevated in phenogroups with adverse outcomes and may indicate the underlying mechanism or pathophysiology specific for phenotypes with an adverse prognosis.

Nematic phases in fluids of biaxial particles
Creators: name: Reid, Andrew Charles Edmund
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The investigation of the possible uniaxial phases of a fluid of biaxial particles undertaken by Bergersen, Palffy-Muhoray and Dunmur forms the starting point for further research into the full range of possible phases of such a fluid. A generalization of their interaction model, free from constraints having to do with interaction details, retaining only the biaxial symmetry, is used in the mean-field approximation to explore the range of possible orientationally-ordered phases for such a system. This model is an equilibrium model which does not include dynamic effects. The basic inter-particle interaction is abstract, having the correct symmetry for biaxial particles, and is the most general biaxial interaction constructable from lowest-order scalar invariants. The self-consistent equations resulting from this formulation are obtained in the mean-field approximation and therefore retain both the symmetry and the generality at the cost of exact numerical correctness. Four order parameters are identified, corresponding (within a numerical factor) to those found by Straley and Freiser, as well as those of Bergersen et al. The phase diagram of a fluid of biaxial particles, then, is mapped out in terms of the behavior of these order parameters, as indicated by the self-consistent equations, as a function of three anisotropy parameters and the temperature. The primary method of analysis is iteration of the self-consistent equations obtained from differentiating the free energy. Numerical results are obtained for the location of the phase boundaries, and the temperature dependence of the order parameters in various phases.

description: We comprehensively model the X-ray luminosity emergent from time dependent relativistic accretion discs, developing analytical models of the X-ray luminosity of thermal disc systems as a function of black hole mass $M$, disc mass $M_d$, and disc $α$-parameter. The X-ray properties of these solutions will be directly relevant for understanding TDE observations. We demonstrate an extremely strong suppression of thermal X-ray luminosity from large mass black holes, $L_X \sim \exp(-m^{7/6})$, where $m$ is a dimensionless mass, roughly the the black hole mass in unity of $10^6$M$_\odot$. This strong suppression results in upper-observable black hole mass limits, which we demonstrate to be of order $M_{\rm lim} \simeq 3 \times 10^7 M_\odot$, above which thermal X-ray emission will not be observable. This upper observable black hole mass limit is a function of the remaining disc parameters, and the full dependence can be described analytically (eq. 82). We demonstrate that the current population of observed X-ray TDEs is indeed consistent with an upper black hole mass limit of order $M \sim 10^7M_\odot$, consistent with our analysis.

description: In this work, we explore macroscopic transport phenomena associated with a rotational system in the presence of an external orthogonal electromagnetic field. Simply based on the lowest Landau level approximation, we derive nontrivial expressions for chiral density and various currents consistently by adopting small angular velocity expansion or Kubo formula. While the generation of anomalous electric current is due to the pseudo gauge field effect of the spin-rotation coupling, the chiral density and current can be simply explained with the help of Lorentz boosts. Finally, Lorentz covariant forms can be obtained by unifying our results and the magnetovorticity effect.

description: The $K\toμ^+μ^-$ decay is often considered to be uninformative of fundamental theory parameters since the decay is polluted by long-distance hadronic effects. We demonstrate that, using very mild assumptions and utilizing time-dependent interference effects, ${\cal B}(K_S\toμ^+μ^-)_{\ell=0}$ can be experimentally determined without the need to separate the $\ell=0$ and $\ell=1$ final states. This quantity is very clean theoretically and can be used to test the Standard Model. In particular, it can be used to extract the CKM matrix element combination $\left|V_{ts}V_{td}\sin(β+β_s)\right|\approx |A^2 λ^5 \bar η|$ with hadronic uncertainties below $1\%$.

description: We consider symmetric second-order differential operators with real coefficients such that the corresponding differential equation is in the limit circle case at infinity. Our goal is to construct the theory of self-adjoint realizations of such operators by an analogy with the case of Jacobi operators. We introduce a new object, the quasiresolvent of the maximal operator, and use it to obtain a very explicit formula for the resolvents of all self-adjoint realizations. In particular, this yields a simple representation for the Cauchy-Stieltjes transforms of the spectral measures playing the role of the classical Nevanlinna formula in the theory of Jacobi operators.
Size limit of superparamagnetic inclusions in dust grains and difficulty of magnetic grain alignment in protoplanetary disks

description: Alignment of non-spherical grains with magnetic fields is an important problem as it lays the foundation of probing magnetic fields with polarized dust thermal emissions. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of magnetic alignment in protoplanetary disks (PPDs). We use an alignment condition that Larmor precession should be fast compared with the damping timescale. We first show that the Larmor precession timescale is some three orders of magnitude longer than the damping time for millimeter-sized grains under conditions typical of PPDs, making the magnetic alignment unlikely. The precession time can be shortened by superparamagnetic inclusions (SPIs), but the reduction factor strongly depends on the size of the SPI clusters, which we find is limited by the so-called "Néel's relaxation process." In particular, the size limit of SPIs is set by the so-called "anisotropic energy constant" of the SPI material, which describes the energy barrier needed to change the direction of the magnetic moment of an SPI. For the most common iron-bearing materials, we find maximum SPI sizes corresponding to a reduction factor of the Larmor precession timescale of order $10^3$. We also find that reaching this maximum reduction factor requires fine-tuning on the SPI sizes. Lastly, we illustrate the effects of the SPI size limits on magnetic alignment of dust grains with a simple disk model, and we conclude that it is unlikely for relatively large grains of order 100 $μ$m or more to be aligned with magnetic fields even with SPIs.

description: Refractory masonry (refractories) is exposed to in-service loads of different types. To rationalise the masonry design and failure analysis, differences of failure under cyclic and monotonic loading were studied. For samples of silica refractories tested in wedge splitting set-up global failure parameters and crack trajectories were assessed. Under cyclic loading, higher fracture energy and lower brittleness at failure were seen. Cracks of different modes had similar non-linearity and branching. However, the size and microstructural characteristics of the fracture process zone was different. In addition, higher energy dissipation during cyclic loading is promoted by repetitive friction events along the crack trajectory.

description: Supervised learning of time series data has been extensively studied for the case of a categorical target variable. In some application domains, e.g., energy, environment and health monitoring, it occurs that the target variable is numerical and the problem is known as time series extrinsic regression (TSER). In the literature, some well-known time series classifiers have been extended for TSER problems. As first benchmarking studies have focused on predictive performance, very little attention has been given to interpretability. To fill this gap, in this paper, we suggest an extension of a Bayesian method for robust and interpretable feature construction and selection in the context of TSER. Our approach exploits a relational way to tackle with TSER: (i), we build various and simple representations of the time series which are stored in a relational data scheme, then, (ii), a propositionalisation technique (based on classical aggregation / selection functions from the relational data field) is applied to build interpretable features from secondary tables to "flatten" the data; and (iii), the constructed features are filtered out through a Bayesian Maximum A Posteriori approach. The resulting transformed data can be processed with various existing regressors. Experimental validation on various benchmark data sets demonstrates the benefits of the suggested approach.
Non-Gaussian Quantum States and Where to Find Them

description: Gaussian states have played on important role in the physics of continuous-variable quantum systems. They are appealing for the experimental ease with which they can be produced, and for their compact and elegant mathematical description. Nevertheless, many proposed quantum technologies require us to go beyond the realm of Gaussian states and introduce non-Gaussian elements. In this Tutorial, we provide a roadmap for the physics of non-Gaussian quantum states. We introduce the phase-space representations as a framework to describe the different properties of quantum states in continuous-variable systems. We then use this framework in various ways to explore the structure of the state space. We explain how non-Gaussian states can be characterised not only through the negative values of their Wigner function, but also via other properties such as quantum non-Gaussianity and the related stellar rank. For multimode systems, we are naturally confronted with the question of how non-Gaussian properties behave with respect to quantum correlations. To answer this question, we first show how non-Gaussian states can be created by performing measurements on a subset of modes in a Gaussian state. Then, we highlight that these measured modes must be correlated via specific quantum correlations to the remainder of the system to create quantum non-Gaussian or Wigner-negative states. On the other hand, non-Gaussian operations are also shown to enhance or even create quantum correlations. Finally, we will demonstrate that Wigner negativity is a requirement to violate Bell inequalities and to achieve a quantum computational advantage. At the end of the Tutorial, we also provide an overview of several experimental realisations of non-Gaussian quantum states in quantum optics and beyond.

Studies of a xenon chloride laser

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: A compact, transverse discharge XeCl laser has been constructed. The laser employs an LC double inversion circuit, and is operated, at an optimum gas mix containing 1.12% Xe, 0.56% HCl, and 98.32% He, at a maximum filling pressure of 80 Psi. The electrical efficiency of the laser is typically 0.3%, with an output energy of ≈ 95 mj and an output laser pulse FWHM of 13.5 nsec, resulting in an output power of ≈ 7 MW. The discharge current reaches a peak value of 7.75 KA, with a rise time of 24 nsec, whereas the voltage reaches a maximum value of 29.1 KV, with a rise time of 111 nsec. By using a CO₂ Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the electron density was measured for the optimum mix (4.01±x10¹⁵cm⁻³). Several studies at different Xe : HCl ratios showed that the dissociative attachment of HCl molecules is responsible for the electron loss during the discharge. The electron temperature was calculated using the measured values of discharge resistance and the drift velocity. The results show that electrons cool by inelastic collisions with HCl molecules.

description: This thesis work deals, principally, with the development of different chemical protocols ranging from environmental sustainability peptide synthesis to asymmetric synthesis of modified tryptophans to a series of straightforward procedures for constraining peptide backbones without the need for a pre-formed scaffold.
Much efforts have been dedicated to the structural analysis in a biomimetic environment, fundamental for predicting the in vivo conformation of compounds, as well as for giving a rationale to the experimentally determined bioactivity. The conformational analyses in solution has been done mostly by NMR (2D gCosy, Roesy, VT, titration experiments, molecular dynamics, etc.), FT-IR and ECD spectroscopy.
As a practical application, 3D rigid scaffolds have been employed for the synthesis of biological active compounds based on peptidomimetic and retro-mimetic structures. These mimics have been investigated for their potential as antiflammatory agents and actually the results obtained are very promising.
Moreover, the synthesis of Amo ring permitted the development of an alternative high effective synthetic pathway for obtaining Linezolid antibiotic. 
The final section is, instead, dedicated to the construction of a new biosensor based on zeolite L SAMs functionalized with the integrin ligand c[RGDfK], that has showed high efficiency for the selective detection of tumor cells. Such kind of sensor could, in fact, enable the convenient, non-invasive detection and diagnosis of cancer in early stages, from a few drops of a patient's blood or other biological fluids. 
In conclusion, the researches described herein demonstrate that the peptidomimetic approach to 3D definite structures, allows unambiguous investigation of the structure-activity relationships, giving an access to a wide range bioactive compounds of pharmaceutical interest to use not only as potential drugs but also for diagnostic and theranostic applications.

description: In this paper, we propose a liquid core suspended photonic crystal fiber (LCSPCF) as a potential waveguide structure for nonlinear applications. We emphasize the dramatic improvement of the nonlinear properties of the PCF through the infiltration of liquid and highlight the effect of suspension in the further enhancement of nonlinearity. To demonstrate the capability of LCSPCF, we perform a modulation instability (MI) study and illustrate the MI enhancement in the LCSPCF against conventional PCF. As the LCSPCF possesses high nonlinearity, it is important to consider the effects of higher-order nonlinearities. We observe that the quintic nonlinearity (QN) increases the MI for cooperating nonlinearities while it suppresses the MI for competing nonlinearities. We have also importantly studied the effect of QN on the MI induced supercontinuum generation (SCG) for silica and CS2 liquid core PCF. Thus, we propose the LCSPCF as a platform for nonlinear applications such as SCG, pulse compression, etc., owing to the presence of high and controllable nonlinear coefficients.

description: It has recently been suggested that black hole remnants of primordial origin are not a viable dark matter candidate since they would have far too large a velocity due to the recoil of Hawking radiation. We re-examined this interesting claim in more details and found that it does not rule out such a possibility. On the contrary, for models based on non-commutativity of spacetime near the Planck scale, essentially the same argument can be used to estimate the scale at which non-commutativity effect becomes important. If dark matter "particles" are non-commutative black holes that have passed the maximum temperature, this implies that the non-commutative scale is about 100 times the Planck length. The same analysis applies to other black hole remnants whose temperature reaches a maximum before cooling off, for example, black holes in asymptotically safe gravity.

description: Galactic sites of acceleration of cosmic rays to energies of order 10^15 eV and higher, dubbed PeVatrons, reveal themselves by recently discovered gamma radiation of energies above 100 TeV. However, joint gamma-ray and neutrino production, which marks unambiguously cosmic-ray interactions with ambient matter and radiation, was not observed until now. In November 2020, the IceCube neutrino observatory reported an ~150 TeV neutrino event from the direction of one of the most promising Galactic PeVatrons, the Cygnus Cocoon. Here we report on the observation of a 3.1-sigma (post trial) excess of atmospheric air showers from the same direction, observed by the Carpet-2 experiment and consistent with a few-months flare in photons above 300 TeV, in temporal coincidence with the neutrino event. The fluence of the gamma-ray flare is of the same order as that expected from the neutrino observation, assuming the standard mechanism of neutrino production. This is the first evidence for the joint production of high-energy neutrinos and gamma rays in a Galactic source.

description: This study examines the impact of welfare reform on claimants with mental health needs in England, in particular the effects of the recent introduction of two social protection measures: Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) and Personal Independence Payment (PIP). Our analysis indicates that reduced access to and adequacy of benefit coverage under these reforms, particularly the elements linked to increased conditionality, have led to diminished levels of social protection for people with mental health needs. We also identify how discriminatory processes in the benefits system have negatively impacted the sense of self-respect and security experienced by claimants. Overall our data suggest that ESA and PIP processes undermine claimants’ subjective wellbeing and exacerbate experiences of mental distress. We therefore propose the term ‘benefits distress’ to describe these forms of suffering that are being institutionally propagated by UK government agencies and the corporations to which state welfare functions are outsourced. The study is part of the wider European RE-InVEST project to investigate the impact of active labour market and social protection policy on marginalised social groups since the financial crisis of 2007.

description: We devise an autoencoder based strategy to facilitate anomaly detection for boosted jets, employing Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to do so. To overcome known limitations of GNN autoencoders, we design a symmetric decoder capable of simultaneously reconstructing edge features and node features. Focusing on latent space based discriminators, we find that such setups provide a promising avenue to isolate new physics and competing SM signatures from sensitivity-limiting QCD jet contributions. We demonstrate the flexibility and broad applicability of this approach using examples of $W$ bosons, top quarks, and exotic hadronically-decaying exotic scalar bosons.

description: This thesis explores the concept of trust in the context of artificial intelligence, examining how it relates to other forms of trust, such as interpersonal and institutional trust, as well as to neighbouring notions like reliance. I argue that trust is fundamentally a relational concept grounded in moral responsibility, and that this perspective remains applicable even when the trusted party is an AI system. To articulate this view, I develop a belief-based disposition account of trust, according to which trusting involves a normative stance rooted in the belief that the trustee will act in a trustworthy manner. This account allows for trust in AI systems understood as socio-technical tools—systems whose trustworthiness depends not only on their technical capacities but also on how those capacities are represented by the people behind them. By weaving together philosophical analysis with practical considerations, the thesis offers a novel understanding of trust in AI—one that challenges the standard reliance–trust distinction and foregrounds the ethical significance of trusting relationships with non-human agents. The result is a refined perspective on both trust and moral responsibility, with important implications for how we design, assess, and relate to AI in high-stakes contexts.

description: CFTs in Euclidean signature satisfy well-accepted rules, such as the convergent Euclidean OPE. It is nowadays common to assume that CFT correlators exist and have various properties also in Lorentzian signature. Some of these properties may represent extra assumptions, and it is an open question if they hold for familiar statistical-physics CFTs such as the critical 3d Ising model. Here we consider Wightman 4-point functions of scalar primaries in Lorentzian signature. We derive a minimal set of their properties solely from the Euclidean unitary CFT axioms, without using extra assumptions. We establish all Wightman axioms (temperedness, spectral property, local commutativity, clustering), Lorentzian conformal invariance, and distributional convergence of the s-channel Lorentzian OPE. This is done constructively, by analytically continuing the 4-point functions using the s-channel OPE expansion in the radial cross-ratios $ρ, \barρ$. We prove a key fact that $|ρ|, |\barρ| < 1$ inside the forward tube, and set bounds on how fast $|ρ|, |\barρ|$ may tend to 1 when approaching the Minkowski space. We also provide a guide to the axiomatic QFT literature for the modern CFT audience. We review the Wightman and Osterwalder-Schrader (OS) axioms for Lorentzian and Euclidean QFTs, and the celebrated OS theorem connecting them. We also review a classic result of Mack about the distributional OPE convergence. Some of the classic arguments turn out useful in our setup. Others fall short of our needs due to Lorentzian assumptions (Mack) or unverifiable Euclidean assumptions (OS theorem).

description: We propose a scalable approach to building cluster states of matter qubits using coherent states of light. Recent work on the subject relies on the use of single photonic qubits in the measurement process. These schemes have a low initial success probability and low detector efficiencies cause a serious blowup in resources. In contrast, our approach uses continuous variables and highly efficient measurements. We present a two-qubit scheme, with a simple homodyne measurement system yielding an entangling operation with success probability 1/2. Then we extend this to a three-qubit interaction, increasing this probability to 3/4. We discuss the important issues of the overhead cost and the time scaling, showing how these can be vastly improved with access to this new probability range.

description: We solve the path integral in momentum space for a particle in the field of the Coulomb potential in one dimension in the framework of quantum mechanics with the minimal length given by $(ΔX)_{0}=\hbar \sqrtβ$, where $β$ is a small positive parameter. From the spectral decomposition of the fixed energy transition amplitude we obtain the exact energy eigenvalues and momentum space eigenfunctions.

description: We present a version of the T-moves approach for treating nonlocal pseudopotentials in diffusion Monte Carlo which has much smaller time-step errors than the existing T-moves approaches, while at the same time preserving desirable features such as the upper-bound property for the energy. In addition, we modify the reweighting factor of the projector used in diffusion Monte Carlo to reduce the time-step error. The latter is applicable not only to pseudopotential calculations but to all-electron calculations as well.
description: 25 pages, 4 figures; additional figures added, expanded discussion of results, added VMC energies to suppl.pdf; We discovered a programming error which had led us to recommend a reweighting factor which gives a suboptimal time-step error. The reweighting factor in Eq. 9 has been replaced with a better recommendation, and the results have been updated. The conclusions of the paper are unchanged

Folk fairy tale

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας διδακτορικής διατριβής είναι να διερευνήσει και να αναδείξει τις παιδαγωγικές διαδικασίες χρησιμοποίησης του σχολικού χώρου μέσα από τη λειτουργία των ομάδων στο νηπιαγωγείο. Η εφαρμογή του προγράμματος έγινε στη διδακτική λαϊκών παραμυθιών και η μέθοδος που εφαρμόστηκε ήταν η έρευνα-δράση. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας έδειξαν ότι ο χώρος απέκτησε την ιδιότητα της ευελιξίας και ενσωματώθηκε στην εκπαιδευτική διαδικασία. Τα παιδιά μέσα από πολλές και ποικίλες δράσεις και μέσω των σημειολογικών μεταλλάξεων δημιουργούσαν τους δικούς τους τόπους. Η δημιουργία «τόπων» οδήγησε στη σύνδεση του χώρου με τη μάθηση και στην αφομοίωση της δομής των παραμυθιών. Τα παιδιά απέκτησαν πρωταγωνιστικό ρόλο στη σχέση τους με το χώρο και την εκπαιδευτική διαδικασία. Ανέπτυξαν θετικές αλληλεπιδράσεις και στοιχεία δημιουργικότητας στις δράσεις τους. Ο σχολικός χώρος μετατράπηκε σε εξελισσόμενο υλικό πεδίο αγωγής καθώς τα παιδιά έμαθαν να χρησιμοποιούν όλους τους χώρους, τα έπιπλα και το εκπαιδευτικό υλικό, σε επίπεδο μικρής αλλά και μεγάλης ομάδας και να τα αναπροσαρμόζουν ανάλογα με τις απαιτήσεις των δραστηριοτήτων. Και όλα αυτά γινόταν σε ένα κλίμα χαράς και ευχαρίστησης.
description: What the current doctoral thesis aims is to research and give prominence to the pedagogical processes of utilizing the classroom environment through the group functions in the kindergarten. This programme was applied in the teaching of folk fairy tales and the method used was ‘research-action’. The outcome of this research showed that space acquired the quality of flexibility and it was integrated into the learning process. Through numerous and various activities and through the semantic modifications that took place, children were the creators of their own places. This invention-creation of new ‘places’ resulted both in the connection of space with learning and in the absorption of how the fairy tales are structured. Children had the leading role in their relation with space and with the learning process. They developed positive interactions and elements of creativity in their activities. The classroom space was transformed into a developing physical learning environment, for children learned to make use of all of the areas, the furniture and the educational materials available, both in small- and large-group activities, as well as to readjust them in accordance with the demands of each activity. All the above took place within an atmosphere of joy and pleasure
Deep CCD photometry in the globular cluster M10

description: CCD observations of the galactic globular cluster NGC 6254 (M10), obtained at the Canada-France-Hawaii 3.6m telescope, have been reduced and analysed. A color-magnitude diagram of the cluster which extends below V = 21 is presented. The basic observational parameters of distance modulus, reddening and metallicity are derived. The latter two values are in excellent agreement with results in the literature. The distance modulus is 0m3 larger than previous estimates. Possible implications of this discrepancy are considered. The morphology of the color-magnitude diagram, in particular the very blue horizontal branch which is observed down to the turnoff luminosity, is discussed in terms of the "second parameter" problem. The age of M10 is estimated to be 17 ± 1 Gyr, through use of Vandenberg and Bell's (1985) isochrones. A comparison to the color-magnitude diagram of NGC 288 produced by Bolte (1989b) to that of M10 indicates that these two clusters are coeval. Luminosity functions are generated for the three fields observed in M10 and translated into mass functions. By comparing those mass functions to multimass King models a global mass function exponent of x[sub global] = 0-5 ± 0.5 is found. The mass function is quite uniform in slope in the range 0.5-0.8M©. NO firm evidence for mass segregation was seen, but these data are not particularly sensitive to such effects.

description: Knowledge graph embedding plays an important role in knowledge representation, reasoning, and data mining applications. However, for multiple cross-domain knowledge graphs, state-of-the-art embedding models cannot make full use of the data from different knowledge domains while preserving the privacy of exchanged data. In addition, the centralized embedding model may not scale to the extensive real-world knowledge graphs. Therefore, we propose a novel decentralized scalable learning framework, \emph{Federated Knowledge Graphs Embedding} (FKGE), where embeddings from different knowledge graphs can be learnt in an asynchronous and peer-to-peer manner while being privacy-preserving. FKGE exploits adversarial generation between pairs of knowledge graphs to translate identical entities and relations of different domains into near embedding spaces. In order to protect the privacy of the training data, FKGE further implements a privacy-preserving neural network structure to guarantee no raw data leakage. We conduct extensive experiments to evaluate FKGE on 11 knowledge graphs, demonstrating a significant and consistent improvement in model quality with at most 17.85\% and 7.90\% increases in performance on triple classification and link prediction tasks.

description: Chimeras are surprising yet important states in which domains of decoherent (asynchronous) and coherent (synchronous) oscillations co-exist. In this article, we report on the discovery of a new class of chimeras, called {\it mixed-amplitude chimera states}, in which the structures, amplitudes, and frequencies of the oscillations differ substantially in the decoherent and coherent regions. These mixed-amplitude chimeras exhibit domains of decoherent small-amplitude oscillations (phase waves) coexisting with domains of stable and coherent large-amplitude or mixed-mode oscillations. They are observed in a prototypical bistable partial differential equation with spatially homogeneous kinetics and purely local, isotropic diffusion. New bifurcations are identified in which the mixed-amplitude chimeras emerge from, or are annihilated in, common large-amplitude solutions. Also, key singularities, folded nodes and folded saddles, arising commonly in multi-scale, bistable systems play important roles, and these have not previously been studied in systems with chimeras. The discovery of these mixed-amplitude chimeras is an important advance for understanding some processes in neuroscience, pattern formation, and physics which involve both small-amplitude and large-amplitude oscillations. It may also be of use for understanding some aspects of EEG recordings from animals that exhibit unihemispheric slow-wave sleep.
