description: Objective. Women with menstrually related mood disorders (MRMD) have substantial rates of physical and sexual abuse, are more sensitive to experimental pain stimuli than women without MRMD, and endorse increased sensitivity to interpersonal rejection (emotional pain) in the premenstrual phase. For the first time, this study examined physical and emotional pain sensitivity in women with MRMD and in non-MRMD controls as a function of abuse history. Methods. A total of 126 women (63 MRMD, 34 with an abuse history and 63 non-MRMD, 31 with an abuse history) were evaluated for: (1) sensitivity to cold pressor and forearm ischemic pain; (2) emotional pain sensitivity based on daily prospective ratings of sensitivity to interpersonal rejection; and (3) basal plasma cortisol and norepinephrine (NE) concentrations. Exploratory analyses examined relationships between plasma cortisol and NE concentrations and physical pain sensitivity. Results. Women with MRMD and an abuse history showed increased sensitivity to both cold pressor and ischemic pain and lower basal cortisol concentrations, an effect not seen in the non-MRMD women. However, non-MRMD women with an abuse history showed increased sensitivity to emotional pain relative to non-MRMD women with no such history. In all subjects, the expected relationship between greater plasma cortisol concentration and reduced sensitivity to physical pain was observed. While only in women with MRMD, plasma NE predicted pain sensitivity. Conclusions. MRMD status moderates the effect of a history of abuse on both physical and emotional pain sensitivity. The results also suggest that the hypocortisolemia documented in the women with MRMD and an abuse history may contribute to their greater sensitivity to noxious experimental stimuli. This study adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting that a history of abuse may identify a clinically distinct subgroup of women with MRMD.
Bias in linear model power and sample size due to estimating variance

description: Planning a study using the General Linear Univariate Model often involves sample size calculation based on a variance estimated in an earlier study. Noncentrality, power, and sample size inherit the randomness. Additional complexity arises if the estimate has been censored. Left censoring occurs when only significant tests lead to a power calculation, while right censoring occurs when only non-significant tests lead to a power calculation. We provide simple expressions for straightforward computation of the distribution function, moments, and quantiles of the censored variance estimate, estimated noncentrality, power, and sample size. We also provide convenient approximations and evaluate their accuracy. The results allow demonstrating that ignoring right censoring falsely widens confidence intervals for noncentrality and power, while ignoring left censoring falsely narrows the confidence intervals. The new results allow assessing and avoiding the potentially substantial bias that censoring may create.

description: We have developed an ab-initio-based fully-quantum numerically-accurate methodology for the simulation of the exciton dynamics and time- and frequency-resolved fluorescence spectra of the cavity-controlled two-dimensional materials at finite temperature and applied this methodology to the single-layer WSe2 system. This allowed us to establish dynamical and spectroscopic signatures of the polaronic and polaritonic effects as well as uncover their characteristic timescales in the relevant range of temperatures.

description: The phase diagram of cold dense quark matter is studied using the 't Hooft extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio Model applied to the light quark sector with a finite current mass for the strange quark (up and down are considered in the chiral limit). By relaxing the traditional uniformity assumptions and considering a modulated light quark condensate background we investigate the possible existence of non-uniform phases in this region of the phase diagram. The effects of changes in the coupling strengths of the model are studied and it is shown that the inclusion of flavour mixing combined with the finite current mass of the strange quark catalyses the appearance of the non-uniform phases, extending the domain for their existence.

description: Background and Aims: To examine factors associated with transition from non-injecting to injecting routes of drug administration and testing antibody positive to hepatitis C virus (HCV) among ethnic Vietnamese heroin users in Melbourne, Australia. Methods: In a cross-sectional convenience survey, sample recruited by peer-workers using snowball sampling technique with a finger prick blood collection. Two-hundred ethnic Vietnamese heroin users were recruited and interviews conducted mainly in Footscray, an area of high ethnic Vietnamese residency with a prominent street based drug market. A structured questionnaire was administered. Measures included patterns of drug use, transition from smoking to injecting and vice versa, injection related risk behaviours and HCV sero-status. Results: Ninety-three percent of the sample commenced drug use by non-injecting routes of administration. More than a half had made the transition from smoking to injecting and almost two thirds of participants had ever injected. The factors associated with making this transition included being male and a longer duration of use. Prevalence of exposure to HCV among injectors was over 50%. Factors associated with being HCV positive were longer duration of injecting, sharing injecting equipment and being older. Conclusions: Smoking heroin is a common route of drug administration among heroin users of Vietnamese ethnicity in this study. The transition from smoking to injecting was very common in the sample. The need for targeted harm reduction initiatives is indicated, and these must take into account patterns of heroin use as well as the social context of drug use if we are to work effectively with heroin users of Vietnamese ethnicity.

description: The social and nutritional environments during early development have the potential to affect offspring traits, but the mechanisms and molecular underpinnings of these effects remain elusive. We used Polistes fuscatus paper wasps to dissect how maternally controlled factors (vibrational signals and nourishment) interact to induce different caste developmental trajectories in female offspring, leading to worker or reproductive (gyne) traits. We established a set of caste phenotype biomarkers in P. fuscatus females, finding that gyne-destined individuals had high expression of three caste-related genes hypothesized to have roles in diapause and mitochondrial metabolism. We then experimentally manipulated maternal vibrational signals (via artificial ‘antennal drumming’) and nourishment levels (via restricted foraging). We found that these caste-related biomarker genes were responsive to drumming, nourishment level or their interaction. Our results provide a striking example of the potent influence of maternal and nutritional effects in influencing transcriptional activity and developmental outcomes in offspring.
A note on Fermi energy of Fermi gas trapped under generic power law potential in $d$-dimension

description: Average energy per fermion in case of Fermi gas with any kinematic characteristic, trapped under most general power law potential in $d$ dimension has been calculated at zero temperature. In a previous paper (M. Acharyya, Eur. J Phys. 31 L89 (2010)) it was shown, in case of free ideal Fermi gas as dimension increases average energy approaches to Fermi energy and in infinite dimension average energy becomes equal to Fermi energy at $T=0$. In this letter it is shown that, for trapped system at finite dimension the average energy depends on power law exponent, but as dimension tends to infinity average energy coincides with Fermi energy for any power law exponent. The result obtained in this manuscript is more general as we can describe free system as well as any trapped system with appropriate choice of power law exponent and true for any kinematic parameter.

description: Cook (1977) proposed a diagnostic to quantify the impact of deleting an observation on the estimated regression coefficients of a General Linear Univariate Model (GLUM). Simulations of models with Gaussian response and predictors demonstrate that his suggestion of comparing the diagnostic to the median of the F for overall regression captures an erratically varying proportion of the values.

description: A number of transmission models for airborne pathogens transmission, as required to understand airborne infectious diseases such as COVID-19, have been proposed independently from each other, at different scales, and by researchers from various disciplines. We propose a communication engineering approach that blends different disciplines such as epidemiology, biology, medicine, and fluid dynamics. The aim is to present a unified framework using communication engineering, and to highlight future research directions for modeling the spread of infectious diseases through airborne transmission. We introduce the concept of mobile human ad hoc networks (MoHANETs), which exploits the similarity of airborne transmission-driven human groups with mobile ad hoc networks and uses molecular communication as the enabling paradigm. In the MoHANET architecture, a layered structure is employed where the infectious human emitting pathogen-laden droplets and the exposed human to these droplets are considered as the transmitter and receiver, respectively. Our proof-of-concept results, which we validated using empirical COVID-19 data, clearly demonstrate the ability of our MoHANET architecture to predict the dynamics of infectious diseases by considering the propagation of pathogen-laden droplets, their reception and mobility of humans.

After explicitly describing the Hilbert basis for $L_n$, we conclude with observations and a conjecture regarding the structure of unimodular triangulations of $L_n$, including connections between enumerative and algebraic properties of $L_n$ and cones over unit cubes.
Some Distributions and Their Implications for an Internal Pilot Study With a Univariate Linear Model

name: Coffey, Christopher S.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2000

description: In planning a study, the choice of sample size may depend on a variance value based on speculation or obtained from an earlier study. Scientists may wish to use an internal pilot design to protect themselves against an incorrect choice of variance. Such a design involves collecting a portion of the originally planned sample and using it to produce a new variance estimate. This leads to a new power analysis and increasing or decreasing sample size. For any general linear univariate model, with fixed predictors and Gaussian errors, we prove that the uncorrected fixed sample F-statistic is the likelihood ratio test statistic. However, the statistic does not follow an F distribution. Ignoring the discrepancy may inflate test size. We derive and evaluate properties of the components of the likelihood ratio test statistic in order to characterize and quantify the bias. Most notably, the fixed sample size variance estimate becomes biased downward. The bias may inflate test size for any hypothesis test, even if the parameter being tested was not involved in the sample size re-estimation. Furthermore, using fixed sample size methods may create biased confidence intervals for secondary parameters and the variance estimate.

Contemporary History as Transatlantic Project: Autobiographical Reflections on the German Problem, 1960-2010
Creators: name: Jarausch, Konrad H.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: »Zeitgeschichte als transatlantisches Projekt: Autobiographische Überlegungen zur deutschen Frage«. This autobiographical retrospective discusses Konrad Jarausch’s scholarship as an example of the topical and methodological development of contemporary history. In contrast to nationally bound scholars, his career in the United States and involvement in German debates illuminates the transatlantic connections of historicizing the recent past. The need to confront the Nazi dictatorship initially privileged political history, but the societal upheavals of the 1960 shifted interests towards quantitative methods and the new social history. The peaceful revolution of 1989 then challenged historians to establish a nuanced interpretation of the GDR in scholarship and memory culture. At the same time the cultural turn called for an engagement with postmodern methods of narratology, transforming theoretical approaches towards constructivism. The growing sensitivity towards the European and global embeddedness of the German past finally inspired a move towards transnational perspectives. This intellectual trajectory is therefore emblematic of successive changes which opened contemporary history towards a new plurality.
Resource Oblivious Sorting on Multicores

description: We present a deterministic sorting algorithm, SPMS (Sample, Partition, and Merge Sort), that interleaves the partitioning of a sample sort with merging. Sequentially, it sorts $n$ elements in $O(n \log n)$ time cache-obliviously with an optimal number of cache misses. The parallel complexity (or critical path length) of the algorithm is $O(\log n \cdot \log\log n)$, which improves on previous bounds for optimal cache oblivious sorting. The algorithm also has low false sharing costs. When scheduled by a work-stealing scheduler in a multicore computing environment with a global shared memory and $p$ cores, each having a cache of size $M$ organized in blocks of size $B$, the costs of the additional cache misses and false sharing misses due to this parallel execution are bounded by the cost of $O(S\cdot M/B)$ and $O(S \cdot B)$ cache misses respectively, where $S$ is the number of steals performed during the execution. Finally, SPMS is resource oblivious in Athat the dependence on machine parameters appear only in the analysis of its performance, and not within the algorithm itself.
description: A version very similar to this appears in ACM Transactions on Parallel Computing (TOPC), Vol. 3, No. 4, Article 23, 2017. The current version adds some additional citations to earlier sorting algorithms, and a comparison to Sharesort

description: The width of a neural network matters since increasing the width will necessarily increase the model capacity. However, the performance of a network does not improve linearly with the width and soon gets saturated. In this case, we argue that increasing the number of networks (ensemble) can achieve better accuracy-efficiency trade-offs than purely increasing the width. To prove it, one large network is divided into several small ones regarding its parameters and regularization components. Each of these small networks has a fraction of the original one's parameters. We then train these small networks together and make them see various views of the same data to increase their diversity. During this co-training process, networks can also learn from each other. As a result, small networks can achieve better ensemble performance than the large one with few or no extra parameters or FLOPs, \ie, achieving better accuracy-efficiency trade-offs. Small networks can also achieve faster inference speed than the large one by concurrent running. All of the above shows that the number of networks is a new dimension of model scaling. We validate our argument with 8 different neural architectures on common benchmarks through extensive experiments. The code is available at \url{https://github.com/FreeformRobotics/Divide-and-Co-training}.

description: We present a class of models in which the coupling of the photon to an ultralight scalar field that has a time-dependent vacuum expectation value causes the fine structure constant to oscillate in time. The scalar field is assumed to constitute all or part of the observed dark matter. Its mass is protected against radiative corrections by a discrete $\mathbb{Z}_N$ exchange symmetry that relates the Standard Model to several copies to itself. The abundance of dark matter is set by the misalignment mechanism. We show that the oscillations in the fine structure constant are large enough to be observed in current and near-future experiments.

description: Background The Hyperhidrosis Quality of Life Index (HidroQoL©) is a validated patient-reported outcome measure capturing the quality of life of people affected by hyperhidrosis. Objectives We aimed to extend the validity evidence to physician-confirmed diagnosis of primary axillary hyperhidrosis. Methods Data from a phase III randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial were used (n = 171). Confirmatory factor analysis was carried out to confirm the a priori two-factor structure of the HidroQoL. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach’s α. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were calculated to evaluate test–retest reliability after days –7 to –4. Convergent validity was assessed using correlations with the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), the Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) and gravimetric sweat production. Known groups were analysed to evaluate discriminative validity. Responsiveness after 29 days was assessed and minimal important difference (MID) values were calculated using both anchor- and distribution-based approaches. All analyses were carried out for total HidroQoL and its two domains. Results The two-factor structure of the HidroQoL was confirmed. Internal consistency and test–retest reliability were strong (Cronbach’s α 0·81–0·90; ICCs 0·89–0·93). Correlations with other outcome measures were in line with a priori hypotheses. The HidroQoL discriminated between different severity groups (P ≤ 0·001) and showed sensitivity to change towards improvement (P < 0·001). An MID value of 4 is proposed for the total scale. Conclusions This study supports excellent measurement properties including clinical applicability of the HidroQoL in primary axillary hyperhidrosis and suggests a MID of 4 be applied to clinical trial data.

description: The IoT vision of a trillion connected devices over the next decade requires reliable end-to-end connectivity and automated device management platforms. While we have seen successful efforts for maintaining small IoT testbeds, there are multiple challenges for the efficient management of large-scale device deployments. With Industrial IoT, incorporating millions of devices, traditional management methods do not scale well. In this work, we address these challenges by designing a set of novel machine learning techniques, which form a foundation of a new tool, it IoTelligent, for IoT device management, using traffic characteristics obtained at the network level. The design of our tool is driven by the analysis of 1-year long networking data, collected from 350 companies with IoT deployments. The exploratory analysis of this data reveals that IoT environments follow the famous Pareto principle, such as: (i) 10% of the companies in the dataset contribute to 90% of the entire traffic; (ii) 7% of all the companies in the set own 90% of all the devices. We designed and evaluated CNN, LSTM, and Convolutional LSTM models for demand forecasting, with a conclusion of the Convolutional LSTM model being the best. However, maintaining and updating individual company models is expensive. In this work, we design a novel, scalable approach, where a general demand forecasting model is built using the combined data of all the companies with a normalization factor. Moreover, we introduce a novel technique for device management, based on autoencoders. They automatically extract relevant device features to identify device groups with similar behavior to flag anomalous devices.

description: We prove that every smoothly immersed 2-torus of $\mathbb{R}^4$ can be approximated, in the C0-sense, by immersed polyhedral Lagrangian tori. In the case of a smoothly immersed (resp. embedded) Lagrangian torus of $\mathbb{R}^4$, the surface can be approximated in the C1-sense by immersed (resp. embedded) polyhedral Lagrangian tori. Similar statements are proved for isotropic 2-tori of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$.

description: This paper proposes a special-purpose system to achieve high-accuracy and high-efficiency machine learning (ML) molecular dynamics (MD) calculations. The system consists of field programmable gate array (FPGA) and application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) working in heterogeneous parallelization. To be specific, a multiplication-less neural network (NN) is deployed on the non-von Neumann (NvN)-based ASIC (SilTerra 180 nm process) to evaluate atomic forces, which is the most computationally expensive part of MD. All other calculations of MD are done using FPGA (Xilinx XC7Z100). It is shown that, to achieve similar-level accuracy, the proposed NvN-based system based on low-end fabrication technologies (180 nm) is 1.6x faster and 10^2-10^3x more energy efficiency than state-of-the-art vN based MLMD using graphics processing units (GPUs) based on much more advanced technologies (12 nm), indicating superiority of the proposed NvN-based heterogeneous parallel architecture.
Generative model for reciprocity and community detection in networks

description: We present a probabilistic generative model and efficient algorithm to model reciprocity in directed networks. Unlike other methods that address this problem such as exponential random graphs, it assigns latent variables as community memberships to nodes and a reciprocity parameter to the whole network rather than fitting order statistics. It formalizes the assumption that a directed interaction is more likely to occur if an individual has already observed an interaction towards her. It provides a natural framework for relaxing the common assumption in network generative models of conditional independence between edges, and it can be used to perform inference tasks such as predicting the existence of an edge given the observation of an edge in the reverse direction. Inference is performed using an efficient expectation-maximization algorithm that exploits the sparsity of the network, leading to an efficient and scalable implementation. We illustrate these findings by analyzing synthetic and real data, including social networks, academic citations and the Erasmus student exchange program. Our method outperforms others in both predicting edges and generating networks that reflect the reciprocity values observed in real data, while at the same time inferring an underlying community structure. We provide an open-source implementation of the code online.

Overview

Cet opus est un monument, disons-le sans aucune vergogne. En effet, il réunit enfin en un seul volume les élucubrations poilantes de deux génies : l'immense Goscinny et le fabuleux Gotlib et vice versa. Lesquels génies avouent, par ailleurs, leur parfaite incompétence à traiter les sujets abordés : le papier qui colle au caramel mou et autres emmerdements majeurs, ou, encore plus pointu, " comment ils font pour trouer les macaronis dans le sens de la longueur " - le tout agrémenté de rédactions de l'élève Chaprot, style : L'Afrique c'est dans les kouateurs. " Incontournable ". (La Presse unanime). Bonne lecture, les poteaux et les aminches !
Growth and Evolution of Thermal Instabilities in Idealized Galaxy-Cluster Cores

description: Heat input roughly balances radiative cooling in the gaseous cores of galaxy clusters even when the central cooling time is short, implying that cooling triggers a feedback loop that maintains thermal balance. Furthermore, cores with short cooling times tend to have multiphase structure, suggesting that the intracluster medium (ICM) becomes locally thermally unstable for cooling times < 1 Gyr. In this work, we use 2D and 3D hydrodynamic simulations to study the onset of condensation in idealized galaxy-cluster cores. In particular, we look at how the condensation process depends on the ratio of cooling time to freefall time and on the geometry of the gravitational potential. We conclude that the ICM can always evolve to a state in which condensation occurs if given enough time, but that an initial timescale ratio tcool /tff < 10 is needed for thermal instability to grow quickly enough to affect realistic cluster cores within a timescale that is relevant for cosmological structure formation. We find that instability leads to convection and that perturbations continue to grow while the gas convects. Condensation occurs when the timescale ratio in the low-entropy tail of the perturbation distribution drops below tcool /tff < 3, even if the volume-averaged timescale ratio is substantially greater. In our simulations, the geometry of the gravitational potential does not have a strong effect on thermal stability. Finally, we find that if condensation is powering feedback, a conversion efficiency of around 10^-3 for converting the condensed mass into thermal energy is sufficient to maintain thermal balance in the ICM.

Placing the Horse before the Cart: Conceptual and Technical Dimensions of Digital Curation

description: »Spannt das Pferd vor den Wagen! Konzeptuelle und technische Dimensionen Digitaler Bestandspflege«. Digital curation has to come from a conceptual starting point, like any other research or educational program. The balance between the practical and the theoretical components can be discussed: As Digital Humanities – and Digital Curation as part of it – stand at a nexus between traditional Humanities and Social Sciences, this balance may be less obvious, a position at that nexus is particularly rewarding however. The need for developments within Computer Science has to be determined by the joined conceptual mandate, however. To provide for an understanding of this conceptual mandate, we describe the development of digital curation. As a term it can be traced back to the early nineties, as a extremely vivid research agenda, with many international links, it has created a plethora of projects, conferences and publications since the early years of this century.
