: LEVERAGING TECHNOLOGY FOR REAL-TIME SUPPLY CHAIN OPTIMIZATION AND SUSTAINABLE INVENTORY PRACTICES
Creators: name: Publications Office of the European Union
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: As the type of market and company competition gets more unpredictable, supply chain management takes a central place for companies who aim to maintain their competitive advantage. This paper aims to discuss the extent to which real-time supply chain operation can be enhanced by incorporating technologies and enhanced knowledge from machine learning techniques in a bid to achieve sustainable inventory management solutions. The paper looks into the viability of Lasso and Elastic Net regression for evasion over resection and categorization, where efficient data partitioning is done with K-means clustering and anomaly detection performed by DBSCAN. Further, a Convolution Neural Network(CNN) is used to decide suitable logistic paths to make them efficient and eco-friendly. By so doing, the research illustrates how supply chain dynamics can be enhanced through real-time technology; how decision-making can be enhanced, and how risks reduced while achieving sustainable goals. The contribution of the findings is to the modern literature on advanced SCM since the study presents raw information on the application of innovative technologies that enable supply chains to achieve increased efficiency and sustainability. Apart from contributing to the current knowledge of the subject, this research provides practical recommendations on how organizations can strengthen and enhance their sustainable supply chain management efforts.

description: Cauchy problems with SPDEs on the whole space are localized to Cauchy problems on a ball of radius $R$. This localization reduces various kinds of spatial approximation schemes to finite dimensional problems. The error is shown to be exponentially small. As an application, a numerical scheme is presented which combines the localization and the space and time discretisation, and thus is fully implementable.

description: We derive the component on-shell action of the space-filling D3-brane, {\it i.e.} $N=1$ supersymmetric Born-Infeld action, within the nonlinear realization approach. The covariant Bianchi identity defining the $N=1$, $d=4$ vector supermultiplet has been constructed by introducing a new bosonic Goldstone superfield associated with the generator of the $U(1)$ group, which transforms to each other the spinor generators of unbroken and spontaneously broken $N=1$, $d=4$ supersymmetries. The first component of this Goldstone superfield is the auxiliary field of the vector supermultiplet and, therefore, the Bianchi identity can be properly defined. The component action of the D3-brane has a very simple form, being written in terms of derivatives covariant with respect to spontaneously broken supersymmetry - it just mimics its bosonic counterpart.

EXPANDING THE STATE: DISARMAMENT IN THE BRITISH MANDATE OF IRAQ, 1919-1927
Creators: name: Gibson , Matthew  Michael
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: Arms proliferation, following the First World War, presented tremendous problems for British-colonial governance in the Middle East. Specifically, the Iraqi revolt of 1920 against British occupation illustrated a larger problem: how can the imperial government halt arms transfers and the use of arms within Iraq while balancing their interests? This project argues that Britain’s selective-disarmament process secured its state-building project and domination in the Middle East. Disarmament impacted the internal and regional relationships between the colonial government and its imperial allies; subsequently, cross-border gun-smuggling weakened Anglo-French relations.  Within recent decades, the US involvement in  Iraq since the early 2000s has impacted the historiography of state-building. This project is influenced by similar events but centering arms prohibition tells a nuanced story of state-building in Iraq. The story highlights both the difficulties and frustrations of the State to consolidate power and tribal communities’ ability to rival state power through preexisting gun-trade networks.

description: Particular complexity of linear quantum optical networks is deserved recently certain attention due to possible implications for theory of quantum computation. Two relevant models of bosons are discussed in presented work. Symmetric product of Hilbert spaces produces rather abstract model. The second one is obtained by quantization of harmonic oscillator. In contrast to considered bosonic processes, so-called "fermionic linear optics" is effectively simulated on classical computer. The comparison of bosonic and fermionic case clarifies the controversy and the more elaborated oscillator model provides a deeper analogy.

The Rise of National Security Restrictions on FDI in the EU
Creators: name: Senecal, Sofie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Across the past two decades, 75% of EU member states have established or tightened security restrictions on inbound Foreign Direct Investment (IFDI). Increased restrictions on IFDI not only are a startling change for the bloc, which was built on decades of trade liberalization, but also defy the predictions of the consensus in the international political economy literature, which holds that developed countries will want to attract more IFDI.This first part of this paper introduces a novel coding scheme that transforms two decades of national laws in all 28 member states into an internationally-comparable measure of IFDI restrictiveness: the Security Restrictiveness Index, which enables detailed analysis of the cross-national emergence of increased restrictions on IFDI in the EU. The second part of the paper explores potential explanations for the policy shift and finds strong preliminary quantitative evidence for the impact of Chinese investment on Europeans’ policy shift on IFDI.

description: H δυναμική ανάλυση προγραμμάτων είναι μία ευρέως διαδεδομένη τεχνική που χρησιμοποιείται για την εύρεση πληροφοριών σχετικά με την εκτέλεση του προγράμματος. Σε αυτή την διπλωματική εργασία παρουσιάζεται μία νέα μορφή δυναμικής ανάλυσης που στοχεύει σε σύγχρονες δυναμικές γλώσσες προγραμματισμού, όπως η Python, η Lua και η Javascript. Αυτή η μορφή αξιοποιεί
τις δυνατότητες του συστήματος εισαγωγής βιβλιοθηκών και, πιο συγκεκριμένα, το γεγονός ότι οι βιβλιοθήκες εισάγονται με μορφή κειμένου. Στον πυρήνα της, πραγματοποιεί αποσύνθεση, μετασχηματισμό και ανασύνθεση των βιβλιοθηκών, διατηρώντας την αρχική τους λειτουργικότητα. Κατά τον μετασχηματισμό εισάγει κώδικα κατασκευασμένο από τον χρήστη, ειδικό για την εκάστοτε ανάλυση, στον πηγαίο κώδικα της βιβλιοθήκης. Αυτός ο κώδικας σε συνδυασμό με διάφορα πε-
ριτυλίγματα, και τον μηχανισμό παρεμβολής των γλωσσών δίνει την δυνατότητα να αναλύονται οι αλληλεπιδράσεις του προγράμματος σε επίπεδο βιβλιοθήκης χωρίς να απαιτείται μορφοποίηση του περιβάλλοντος εκτέλεσης. Αυτές οι δυνατότητες επιδεικνύονται με την χρήση της Lya, ενός συστήματος γραμμένου στην Javascript, που στοχεύει να πραγματοποιήσει δυναμική ανάλυση για την ίδια την Javascript. Τα αποτελέσματα δείχνουν ότι η Lya προσφέρει 2–3 τάξεις μεγέθους ταχύτερες αναλύσεις, σε σύγκριση με σύγχρονα συστήματα δυναμικής ανάλυσης. Δίνεται η δυνατότητα στις αναλύσεις να τρέχουν κατά την διάρκεια της παραγωγής, ανιχνεύοντας προβλήματα και συμπεριφορές μοναδικές κάτω από αυτές τις συνθήκες. Οι αναλύσεις προσφέρουν πληθώρα διαφορετικών περιπτώσεων χρήσης και γράφονται σε 100 γραμμές κώδικα κατά μέσο όρο.
description: Dynamic program analysis is a technique for obtaining information about a program and its execution. In this thesis, we present a new type of dynamic analysis that targets modern dynamic languages such as Python, Lua and Javascript. This kind of dynamic analysis uses the capabilities of the module-import mechanism, and more specifically the fact that libraries are imported as text. At its core, it performs disassembly, transformation and recomposition of the imported libraries, maintaining their original functionality. During the transformation phase, it injects user-generated code, specific to each analysis, into the source code of the library. This imported code, combined with various context wraps and the use of proxies, make it possible to detect interactions at the library level without altering the runtime environment. We implement this approach in Lya, a system targeting the JavaScript ecosystem, written in Javascript. The results show that Lya offers 2–3 orders of magnitude faster analyses compared to conventional dynamic analysis systems. Analyses can be enabled to run during production, detecting problems and behaviors unique to these conditions. Different analyses offer a variety of different use cases and are written in 100 lines of code οn average.

description: "Inverse design" formulates the design process as an inverse problem; optimal values of a parameterized design space are sought so to best reproduce quantitative outcomes from the forwards dynamics of the design's intended environment. Arguably, two subtasks are necessary to iteratively solve such a design problem; the generation and evaluation of designs. This thesis work documents two experiments leveraging machine learning (ML) to facilitate each subtask. Included first is a review of relevant physics and machine learning theory. Then, analysis on the theoretical foundations of ensemble methods realizes a novel equation describing the effect of Bagging and Random Forests on the expected mean squared error of a base model. Complex models of design evaluation may capture environmental dynamics beyond those that are useful for a design optimization. These constitute unnecessary time and computational costs. The first experiment attempts to avoid these by replacing EGSnrc, a Monte Carlo simulation of coupled electron-photon transport, with an efficient ML "surrogate model". To investigate the benefits of surrogate models, a simulated annealing design optimization is twice conducted to reproduce an arbitrary target design, once using EGSnrc and once using a random forest regressor as a surrogate model. It is found that using the surrogate model produced approximately an 100x speed-up, and converged upon an effective design in fewer iterations. In conclusion, using a surrogate model is faster and (in this case) also more effective per-iteration. The second experiment of this thesis work leveraged machine learning for design generation. As a proof-of-concept design objective, the work seeks to efficiently sample 2D Ising spin model configurations from an optimized design space with a uniform distribution of internal energies. Randomly sampling configurations yields a narrow Gaussian distribution of internal energies. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) trained with NeuroEvolution, a mutation-only genetic algorithm, were used to statistically shape the design space. Networks contribute to sampling by processing random inputs, their outputs are then regularized into acceptable configurations. Samples produced with CNNs had more uniform distribution of internal energies, and ranged across the entire space of possible values. In combination with conventional sampling methods, these CNNs can facilitate the sampling of configurations with uniformly distributed internal energies.

description: We propose an information criterion for multistep ahead predictions. It is also used for extrapolations. For the derivation, we consider multistep ahead predictions under local misspecification. In the prediction, we show that Bayesian predictive distributions asymptotically have smaller Kullback--Leibler risks than plug-in predictive distributions. From the results, we construct an information criterion for multistep ahead predictions by using an asymptotically unbiased estimator of the Kullback--Leibler risk of Bayesian predictive distributions. We show the effectiveness of the proposed information criterion throughout the numerical experiments.

Creators: name: Jordan, Tara L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: During the Thirty Years’ War (1618–48), the Habsburg family struggled to consolidate their power and exert control over the Holy Roman Empire. The Habsburgs used the Catholic faith as a method to centralize their public image and political power despite military defeats. Focusing my research on Eleonora Gonzaga (1598–1655), the second wife of Emperor Ferdinand II, I study the ways that she used her cultural and political capital to further the Habsburg Catholic image. Musical works from the era dedicated to Eleonora, specifically laments of the Blessed Virgin, by composers Giovanni Felice Sances (1600–79) and Claudio Monteverdi (1567–1643) illustrate key tenets of the Habsburg’s faith that Eleonora highlighted throughout her life. I argue that Eleonora utilized her considerable power and mobilized her faith to become a crucial part of the Habsburg’s public-image campaign during her time as empress and dowager empress of the Holy Roman Empire.

description: We present first results for the $2 \to 4$ single-parton scattering $g g \to c \bar c c \bar c$ subprocess for the first time fully within the $k_t$-factorization approach. In this calculation we have used the Kimber-Martin-Ryskin unintegrated gluon distribution which effectively includes some class of higher-order gluon emissions, and an off-shell matrix element squared calculated using recently developed techniques. The results are compared with our earlier result obtained within the collinear-factorization approach. Only slightly larger cross sections are obtained than in the case of the collinear approach. Inclusion of transverse momenta of gluons entering the hard process leads to a much stronger azimuthal decorrelation between $c c$ and $\bar c \bar c$ than in the collinear-factorization approach. A comparison to predictions of double parton scattering (DPS) results and the LHCb data strongly suggests that the assumption of two fully independent DPS ($g g \to c \bar c \otimes g g \to c \bar c$) may be too approximate.

THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED: ANALYZING CAREER PATHS OF FEMALE ATHLETIC DIRECTORS USING SOCIAL NETWORKING ANALYSIS
Creators: name: Motley, Mary Catherine
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: The purpose of this research is to analyze the career paths of current NCAA Division I female athletic directors (ADs) in order to build and identify networks within intercollegiate athletics. By using social network analysis, this research built out a hiring network within intercollegiate athletics by career changes of current Division I female athletic directors. The objectives of this study included exploring current female AD career paths, uncovering institutions deemed most influential in the network, and comparing career paths of female and male ADs. The research suggested that on average, female ADs have longer career paths than males alongside a much sparser network. Most females that pursued the title of athletic director climbed their way up through various positions in college athletics. Hubs in the network accelerated an ADs career. Institutional authorities hired females at a higher position and often at a senior executive level before becoming an AD.

description: The proximity of the Peccei-Quinn scale to the scale of supersymmetry breaking in models of pure gravity mediation hints at a common dynamical origin of these two scales. To demonstrate how to make such a connection manifest, we embed the Peccei-Quinn mechanism into the vector-like model of dynamical supersymmetry breaking a la IYIT. Here, we rely on the anomaly-free discrete Z4R symmetry required in models of pure gravity mediation to solve the mu problem to protect the Peccei-Quinn symmetry from the dangerous effect of higher-dimensional operators. This results in a rich phenomenology featuring a QCD axion with a decay constant of O(10^10) GeV and mixed WIMP/axion dark matter. In addition, exactly five pairs of extra 5 and 5* matter multiplets, directly coupled to the supersymmetry breaking sector and with masses close to the gravitino mass, m3/2 ~ 100 TeV, are needed to cancel the Z4R anomalies.

description: The international student challenge UrbanFarm2024, which has now reached its 6th edition, is dedicated to the design of new spaces, activities, and solutions for the development of a new prison facility in Trelleborg (SKÅNE, Sweden): the aim is to integrate the prison's architectural design with agricultural facilities to facilitate inmates rehabilitation through farming activities, while, at the same time, reaching fruit and vegetables self-sufficiency within the facility. Similarly to previous editions, the teams had the task of bridging the most innovative strategies in urban farming as well as environmental technology and solutions with multifunctional planning of the prison's external spaces. Moreover, students also had the opportunity to discuss their solutions with the Swedish Prison and Probation Service (Kriminalvarden) in Malmö. Through this challenge, teams must apply their knowledge in real contexts, dealing with the environment and spaces as well as with the local policies. Moreover, they gain a significant opportunity to exchange views and approaches with their peers from different countries as well as backgrounds. Their dissemination and soft skills may also take advantage and be improved, for instance in how to prepare a promotional video or how to orally present their project in front of an audience, making this challenge an important teaching tool. 

This publication aims to summarize the main ideas, projects, and solutions that student teams brought together with enthusiasm, dedication, and effort. We believe that these kinds of ideas and projects may not only raise awareness on these topics but also inspire urban planners and institutions to foster the sustainability and liveability of their cities.

description: In this work, the human parsing task, namely decomposing a human image into semantic fashion/body regions, is formulated as an Active Template Regression (ATR) problem, where the normalized mask of each fashion/body item is expressed as the linear combination of the learned mask templates, and then morphed to a more precise mask with the active shape parameters, including position, scale and visibility of each semantic region. The mask template coefficients and the active shape parameters together can generate the human parsing results, and are thus called the structure outputs for human parsing. The deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is utilized to build the end-to-end relation between the input human image and the structure outputs for human parsing. More specifically, the structure outputs are predicted by two separate networks. The first CNN network is with max-pooling, and designed to predict the template coefficients for each label mask, while the second CNN network is without max-pooling to preserve sensitivity to label mask position and accurately predict the active shape parameters. For a new image, the structure outputs of the two networks are fused to generate the probability of each label for each pixel, and super-pixel smoothing is finally used to refine the human parsing result. Comprehensive evaluations on a large dataset well demonstrate the significant superiority of the ATR framework over other state-of-the-arts for human parsing. In particular, the F1-score reaches $64.38\%$ by our ATR framework, significantly higher than $44.76\%$ based on the state-of-the-art algorithm.

REPORTED FORMS OF ADVERSITY BY FORMER COLLEGIATE ATHLETES AND TRANSFERABLE IMPACTS OF THESE EXPERIENCES
Creators: name: Haroldson, Jack  Mitchell

description: There has been significant debate regarding intercollegiate athletics and its place within the contemporary American academy system (Clavio et al., 2013; Martin & Christy, 2010; Mitten & Ross, 2013; Ross, 2012; Smith, 2011; Smith & Willingham, 2015; Southall & Staurowsky, 2013; Southall & Jonathan, 2014; Thoroughgood & Padilla, 2013; Van Rheenen, 2012; Wainstein et al., 2014; Zimbalist, 2018). This study utilized the Resiliency Model (Richardson et al., 1990) as a conceptual framework to determine how experiences of adversity encountered as a collegiate athlete impact the post-athletics life of an individual. Former athletes at least five years removed from collegiate participation revealed specific themes of adversity and their applicability to later areas of life. The results of this study will add to literature examining the long-term impacts of intercollegiate athletics participation. This study will also add to current research by identifying specific themes of reported adversity in collegiate athletics and how those themes influence transferrable impacts of athletic participation.

description: The hybrid halide perovskites, the very performant compounds in photovoltaic applications, possess large Seebeck coefficient and low thermal conductivity making them potentially interesting high figure of merit ($ZT$) materials. For this purpose one needs to tune the electrical conductivity of these semiconductors to higher values. We have studied the CH$_3$NH$_3$MI$_3$ (M=Pb,Sn) samples in pristine form showing very low $ZT$ values for both materials; however, photoinduced doping (in M=Pb) and chemical doping (in M=Sn) indicate that, by further doping optimization, $ZT$ can be enhanced toward unity and reach the performance level of the presently most efficient thermoelectric materials.

A New Approach to Linear Estimation Problem in Multi-user Massive MIMO Systems

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Systems and Control (eess.SY)
subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: A novel approach for solving linear estimation problem in multi-user massive MIMO systems is proposed. In this approach, the difficulty of matrix inversion is attributed to the incomplete definition of the dot product. The general definition of dot product implies that the columns of channel matrix are always orthogonal whereas, in practice, they may be not. If the latter information can be incorporated into dot product, then the unknowns can be directly computed from projections without inverting the channel matrix. By doing so, the proposed method is able to achieve an exact solution with a 25% reduction in computational complexity as compared to the QR method. Proposed method is stable, offers an extra flexibility of computing any single unknown, and can be implemented in just twelve lines of code.

description: Η βίντεο-τριχοειδοσκοπία είναι μία μη επεμβατική τεχνική απεικόνισης για την in vivo μελέτη της μικροκυκλοφορίας του αίματος. Αρκετοί γιατροί προτείνουν την υιοθέτηση της τριχοειδοσκόπησης για την ανίχνευση της αγγειακής και σπλαχνικής συμμετοχής όπως τα δακτυλικά έλκη, την πνευμονική αρτηριακή υπέρταση και την διάμεση πνευμονοπάθεια. Δυστυχώς, η κλινική εφαρμογή της τριχοειδοσκοπίας περιορίζεται από την κακή απόδοση της μέτρησης, καθώς η ανίχνευση των παραμέτρων ενδιαφέροντος βασίζεται κυρίως στην υποκειμενική ερμηνεία της εικόνας από τον εκάστοτε γιατρό.
Αυτή η εργασία αποσκοπεί στην ανάπτυξη ενός νέου εργαλείου ικανό για την αυτόματη αναγνώριση και ποσοτικοποίηση των τριχοειδικών αλλαγών. Αφενός, η μελέτη που υπάρχει διαθέσιμη στον τομέα της φωτοπληθυσμογραφίας μπορεί να αξιοποιηθεί για τον εντοπισμό όγκων ή/και μεταβολών του όγκου στα αιμοφόρα αγγεία. Από την άλλη μεριά, η γνωστή θεωρία της βιοϊατρικής επεξεργασίας εικόνας μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί για την ποσοτική ανίχνευση των τριχοειδοσκοπικών αλλοιώσεων.

description: Video - capillaroscopy is a non-invasive imaging technique for the in vivo study of microcirculation. Several doctors and physicians suggest the adoption of video - capillaroscopy to detect typical vascular and visceral involvement as digital ulcers, pulmonary arterial hypertension and pulmonary interstitial disease. Unluckily the routine clinical application of VCS is limited by the poor reproducibility of the measurement, since the detection of the parameters of interest is mainly based on the subjective image interpretation of the doctor.
This project aims at developing a new tool suitable to automatically recognize and quantify capillaroscopic alterations. On the one hand, the work available in the field of photoplethysmography can be exploited to detect volumes and / or variations of volume in blood vessels. On the other hand, the well known theory of biomedical image processing can be employed to quantitatively detect capillaroscopic alterations.
The activities assigned to this thesis are:
• Designing an infrared (IR) illuminator to exploit the optical properties of blood at various wavelengths.
• Designing the mechanical setup suitable to standardize the probe placement and pressure exerted on the skin.
• Identifying the proper IR video camera
• Designing and/or identifying an optical system suitable to provide the proper magnification and capture range
• Integrating all the selected parts into a single setup/instrument.
METABOLIC EFFECTS OF MENOPAUSE: A CROSS-SECTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF BODY COMPOSITION AND EXERCISE METABOLISM
Creators: name: Gould, Lacey
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: This cross-sectional study evaluated body composition via a four-compartment model, muscle characteristics, cardiometabolic blood markers, resting and exercise metabolism, and lifestyle factors (physical activity, sleep quality, diet, and number of menopause symptoms) in 24 pre-menopausal (PRE), 24 peri-menopausal (PERI), and 24 post-menopausal (POST) women. Significant differences (p<0.05) were reported for body fat percent (%fat), android to gynoid ratio (AG ratio), rate of fat oxidation during moderate intensity exercise, and number of menopause symptoms. PERI women experienced the highest %fat, the greatest central obesity, reduced metabolic flexibility, and the greatest number of menopause symptoms. Muscle quality was lowest in PERI and remained low in POST, while markers of cholesterol increased through the menopause transition. Peri-menopause may be the most opportune window for lifestyle intervention, as this group experienced unfavorable body composition and metabolism compared to the other groups despite similarities in body mass index, diet, and physical activity between groups.
Anisotropic Fractal Media by Vector Calculus in Non-Integer Dimensional Space

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: A review of different approaches to describe anisotropic fractal media is proposed. In this paper differentiation and integration non-integer dimensional and multi-fractional spaces are considered as tools to describe anisotropic fractal materials and media. We suggest a generalization of vector calculus for non-integer dimensional space by using a product measure method. The product of fractional and non-integer dimensional spaces allows us to take into account the anisotropy of the fractal media in the framework of continuum models. The integration over non-integer-dimensional spaces is considered. In this paper differential operators of first and second orders for fractional space and non-integer dimensional space are suggested. The differential operators are defined as inverse operations to integration in spaces with non-integer dimensions. Non-integer dimensional space that is product of spaces with different dimensions allows us to give continuum models for anisotropic type of the media. The Poisson's equation for fractal medium, the Euler-Bernoulli fractal beam, and the Timoshenko beam equations for fractal material are considered as examples of application of suggested generalization of vector calculus for anisotropic fractal materials and media.

description: We introduce non-linear versions of the classical cotype of Banach spaces. We show that spaces with l.u.st and cotype, and that spaces having Fourier cotype enjoy our non-linear cotype. We apply these concepts to get results on convergence of vector-valued power series in infinite many variables and on $\ell_{1}$-multipliers of vector-valued Dirichlet series. Finally we introduce cotype with respect to indexing sets, an idea that includes our previous definitions.
