description: In this thesis, three different topics regarding the calculation of alert concentrations are considered. In toxicology, an alert concentration is the concentration where the response variable of interest attains or exceeds a pre-specified threshold. The first topic, handling deviating control values, considers cytotoxicity data. Often, response values for the lowest tested concentrations and the negative control do not coincide. This leads to the inability to properly interpret or even calculate the concentration where the curve attains a pre-specified percentage. Four different methods are proposed and compared in a controlled simulation study. All of these methods are based on the family of log-logistic functions. Based on the results from this simulation study, a concrete algorithm is stated, which method to use in which case. The second topic is called identification of alert concentrations and considers gene expression data. Four methods to calculate specific alert concentrations are compared in a controlled simulation study, two based on the discrete observations only and two based on a parametric model fit, with one method taking the significance into account, respectively, and one method considering absolute exceedance of the threshold only. Results show that generally, the methods based on modelling of curves less drastically overestimate the true underlying alert concentrations while at the same time, the number alerts at too low concentrations, does not exceed the significance level. The third topic aims at improving the estimation of the parameter in a 4pLL model corresponding to the half-maximal effect by conducting some information sharing across. Two approaches are presented: The first approach is to conduct a meta-analysis for estimates of this parameters for all genes that are `similar' to each other. The second method makes use of an empirical Bayes procedure to effectively calculate a weighted mean between individual observed value and the mean of all observed parameter values for a large dataset. The meta-analysis approach performs worse than directly estimating the parameter of interest, but results for the Bayes method improved in contrast to the direct estimate in terms of the MSE.

description: Identifying key players in a set of coupled individual systems is a fundamental problem in network theory. Its origin can be traced back to social sciences and led to ranking algorithms based on graph theoretic centralities. Coupled dynamical systems differ from social networks in that, they are characterized by degrees of freedom with a deterministic dynamics and the coupling between individual units is a well-defined function of those degrees of freedom. One therefore expects the resulting coupled dynamics, and not only the network topology, to also determine the key players. Here, we investigate synchronizable network-coupled dynamical systems such as high voltage electric power grids and coupled oscillators. We search for nodes which, once perturbed by a local noisy disturbance, generate the largest overall transient excursion away from synchrony. A spectral decomposition of the coupling matrix leads to an elegant, concise, yet accurate solution to this identification problem. We show that, when the internodal coupling matrix is Laplacian, these key players are peripheral in the sense of a centrality measure defined from effective resistance distances. For linearly coupled dynamical systems such as weakly loaded power grids or consensus algorithms, the nodal ranking is efficiently obtained through a single Laplacian matrix inversion, regardless of the operational synchronous state. We call the resulting ranking index LRank. For heavily loaded power grids or coupled oscillators systems closer to the transition to synchrony, nonlinearities render the nodal ranking dependent on the synchronous state. In this case a weighted Laplacian matrix inversion gives another ranking index, which we call WLRank. Quite surprisingly, we find that LRank provides a faithful ranking even for well developed coupling nonlinearities, corresponding to oscillator angle differences up to $40^o$ approximately.

description: In a MC study using a cluster update algorithm we investigate the finite-size scaling (FSS) of the correlation lengths of several representatives of the class of three-dimensional classical O(n) symmetric spin models on a column geometry. For all considered models we find strong evidence for a linear relation between FSS amplitudes and scaling dimensions when applying antiperiodic instead of periodic boundary conditions across the torus. The considered type of scaling relation can be proven analytically for systems on two-dimensional strips with periodic bc using conformal field theory

Video quality assessment

description: The visual brain is optimally designed to process images from the natural environment that we perceive. Describing the natural environment statistically helps in understanding how the brain encodes those images efficiently. The Natural Scene Statistics (NSS) of the luminance component of images is the basis of several univariate statistical models. Such models were the fundamental building blocks of multiple visual applications, ranging from the design of faithful image and video quality models to the development of perceptually optimized image enhancing techniques. Towards advancing this area, I studied the bivariate statistical properties of images and developed the first of its kind closed-form model that describes the correlation of spatially separated bandpass image samples. I found that the model was useful in tackling different problems such as blindly assessing the quality of images and assessing 3D visual discomfort of stereo images. Provided the success of NSS in tackling image processing problems, I decided to use them as a tool to tackle the blind video quality assessment (VQA) problem. First, I constructed a video quality database, the LIVE Video Quality Challenge Database (LIVE-VQC). This database is the largest across several key dimensions: number of unique contents, distortions, devices, resolutions, and videographers. For collecting the subjective scores, I constructed a new framework in Amazon Mechanical Turk. A massive number of subjects from across the globe participated in my study. Those efforts resulted in a VQA database that serves as a great benchmark for real-world videos. Next, I studied the spatio-temporal statistics of a wide variety of natural videos and created a space-time completely blind VQA model that deploys a directional temporal NSS model to predict quality. My newly created model outperforms all previous completely blind VQA models on the LIVE-VQC

We consider gravitational, electromagnetic and matter effects and show that the latter are ignorable. Resonant oscillations due to the gravitational interactions are shown to occur at energies in the PeV range for magnetic moments in the $10^{-17} μ_B$ range. Coherent precession will dominate for larger magnetic moments. The alllowed regions for gravitational resonant transitions are obtained.

description: The superfluid fraction of an atomic cloud can be defined using the cloud's response to a rotation of the external potential, i.e. the moment of inertia. In this paper we derive analytical results for the moment of inertia of a small number of non-interacting Bosons using the canonical ensemble. The required symmetrized averages are obtained via a representation of the partition function by permutation cycles. Our results are useful to discriminate purely quantum statistical effects from interaction effects in studies of superfluidity and phase transitions in finite samples.

Rietveld refinement performed on X-ray diffraction patterns indicates that the samples are tetragonal crystal structure with P4mm space group. By increasing Mg content from 1 to 2% the unit cell volume decreased. Likewise, the grains size is greatly reduced from 10 to 4 micrometer. The temperature dependence of dielectric constants at different frequencies exhibited typical relaxor ferroelectric characteristic, with sensitive dependence in frequency and temperature for ac conductivity. The obtained activation energy values were correlated to the proposed conduction mechanisms.

description: Through the observation of conversations on Internet Relay Chat and the quantitative analysis of “chat-logs”, I investigate the characteristics of this form of communication unique to the digital realm. My research rests on a theoretical framework integrating the semiotic and pragmatism of Charles S. Peirce (as primary groundwork) with the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein and the sociology of Erving Goffman, to grasp shared significations in cyberspace simultaneously as logical process and as social practice. This exploratory case study yields evidence supporting the potential fruitfulness of Peircean philosophy as the foundation for a new paradigm in empirical communication research, and successfully puts to the test a particular type of method (computational and diagrammatic) suggested to accomplish such research.

Distribution of Gene Pair Similarity in Syntenic Regions Within and Between Genomes: A Branching Process Account of the Polyploidization, Speciation and Fractionation Cycle

description: The evolution of plant genomes is notable for manifesting a cycle of whole genome doubling, fractionation (gradual loss of redundant genes) and speciation. The thesis is based on a branching process model of the doubling and fractionation process, integrated with a standard model of sequence divergence. The immediate application of this work is to account for the distribution of sequence similarity for duplicate gene pairs, both within plant genomes and between two related plant genomes in terms of a cycle of polyploidization, fractionation and speciation. We derive a mixture distribution for duplicate gene pair similarities generated by speciation and/or repeated episodes of polyploidization. We account not only for the timing of these events in terms of local modes or peaks of the component distributions, but also their volume, or amplitude, and variance. We outline how to infer the parameters of the model. We illustrate with analyses of the distribution of homolog similarities in a number of plant families: Brassicaceae, Solanaceae and Malvaceae. To our knowledge, this is the first method to account for the volume of the component normals of a distribution of similarities, preliminary to an evolutionarily meaningful inference procedure. In addition, we solve the problem of identifying the ploidy level of a series of two or three polyploidizations by invoking the observed and predicted gene triple profiles for each model, i.e., by calculating the probability of the four types of triple with origins in one or the other event, or both.

description: For people with lower limb amputation, a user-specific human-machine interaction with their prostheses is required to ensure safe and comfortable assistance. Especially during dynamic turning manoeuvres, users experience high loads at the stump, which decreases comfort and may lead to long-term tissue damage. Preliminary experiments with users wearing a configurable, passive torsional adaptor indicate increased comfort and safety achieved by adaptation of torsional stiffness and foot alignment. Moreover, the results show that the individual preference regarding both parameters depend on gait situation and individual preference. Hence, measured loads in the structure of the prosthesis and subjective feedback regarding comfort and safety during different turning motions are considered in a user-specific human-machine interaction strategy for a prosthetic shank adaptor. Therefore, the interrelations of gait parameters with optimal configuration are stored in an individual preference-setting matrix. Stiffness and foot alignment are actively adjusted to the optimal parameters by a parallel elastic actuator. Two subjects reported that they experienced appropriate variation of stiffness and foot alignment, a noticeable reduction of load at the stump and that they could turn with less effort.

We have determined the masses of the lightest bound states in SU(3) $\mathcal{N}=1$ SYM. Our simulations cover a range of different lattice spacings, which for the first time allows an extrapolation to the continuum limit. Our results show the formation of a supermultiplet of bound states, which provides a clear evidence for unbroken supersymmetry.

description: We study the conductance of carbon nanotube wires in the presence of disorder, in the limit of phase coherent transport. For this purpose, we have developed a simple numerical procedure to compute transmission through carbon nanotubes and related structures. Two models of disorder are considered, weak uniform disorder and isolated strong scatterers. In the case of weak uniform disorder, our simulations show that the conductance is not significantly affected by disorder when the Fermi energy is close to the band center. Further, the transmission around the band center depends on the diameter of these zero bandgap wires. We also find that the calculated small bias conductance as a function of the Fermi energy exhibits a dip when the Fermi energy is close to the second subband minima. In the presence of strong isolated disorder, our calculations show a transmission gap at the band center, and the corresponding conductance is very small.

In the first set of experiment neutrophils and eosinophils were isolated using Histopaque 1119 (Sigma) followed by Percoll (GE Healthcare) and thereafter the eosinophils were separated from the granulocytes using MACS Eosinophil Isolation Kit (Miltenyi Biotech). The cells that were removed from during the eosinophil purification step were regarded as neutrophils (A) and the ones that remained as eosinophils (B). In the second part of the experiment eosinophils were purified using the MACSXpress® Eosinophil Isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotech) (C). (PDF 199 kb)

description: We show how a field theory containing classical vortex solutions can be expressed as an effective string theory of long distance QCD describing the two transverse oscillations of the string. We use the semiclassical expansion of this effective string theory about a classical rotating string solution to obtain Regge trajectories for mesons with zero mass quarks. The first semiclassical correction adds the constant 1/12 to the classical Regge formula for the angular momentum of mesons on the leading Regge trajectory. In D spacetime dimensions, this additive constant is (D-2)/24. The excited states of the rotating string give rise to daughter Regge trajectories determining the spectrum of hybrid mesons.

description: While modelling our late time cosmically accelerated universe, it is popular to involve different dark energy models, the equation of state of which can be taken as a function of the redshift and some unknown parameters. Barboza and Alcaniz have proposed one of a such kind of dark energy's EoS model. We use some new parametrizations like Feng, Shen, Li, Li I and II and Polynomial parametrizations to get more accurate concepts about the fate of our expanding universe. We try to find how the hypothesis of the fate of our universe behaves in the above background of dark energy models. Possibilities of occurrences of future cosmic singularities are studied.

description: The behavior of charge density wave (CDW) in an external magnetic field is dictated by both orbital and Pauli (Zeeman) effects. A quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) system features Q1D Fermi surfaces that allow these effects to be distinguished, which in turn can provide sensitive probe to the underlying electronic states. Here we studied the field dependence of an incommensurate CDW in a transition-metal chalcogenide Ta2NiSe7 with a Q1D chain structure. The angle-dependent magnetoresistance (MR) is found to be very sensitive to the relative orientation between the magnetic field and the chain direction. With an applied current fixed along the b axis (the chain direction), the angle-dependent MR shows a striking change of the symmetry below T_CDW only for a rotating magnetic field in the ac plane. In contrast, the symmetry axis remains unchanged for other configurations (H in ab and bc plane). The orbital effect conforms to the lattice symmetry, while Pauli effect in the form of μB B / v_F can be responsible for such symmetry change, provided that the Fermi velocity v_F is significantly anisotropic and the nesting vector changes in a magnetic field, which is corroborated by our first-principles calculations. Our results show that the angle-dependent MR is a sensitive transport probe of CDW and can be useful for the study of low-dimensional systems in general.

description: Using a simple observation based on holomorphy, we argue that any model which spontaneously breaks supersymmetry for some range of a parameter will do so generically for all values of that parameter, modulo some isolated exceptional points. Conversely, a model which preserves supersymmetry for some range of a parameter will also do so everywhere except at isolated exceptional points. We discuss how these observations can be useful in the construction of new models which break supersymmetry and discuss some simple examples. We also comment on the relation of these results to the Witten index.

description: It is shown that the double exchange Hamiltonian, with weak antiferromagnetic interactions, has a rich variety of first order transitions between phases with different electronic densities and/or magnetizations. For band fillings in the range $0.3 \le x \le 0.5$, and at finite temperatures, a discontinuous transition between phases with similar electronic densities but different magnetizations takes place. This sharp transition, which is not suppressed by electrostatic effects, and survives in the presence of an applied field, is consistent with the phenomenology of the doped manganites near the transition temperature.

description: Over the past decade, techniques have been presented to derive the community structure of phytoplankton at synoptic scales using satellite ocean-color data. There is a growing demand from the ecosystem modeling community to use these products for model evaluation and data assimilation. Yet, from the perspective of an ecosystem modeler these products are of limited use unless: (i) the phytoplankton products provided by the remote-sensing community match those required by the ecosystem modelers; and (ii) information on per-pixel uncertainty is provided to evaluate data quality. Using a large dataset collected in the North Atlantic, we re-tune a method to estimate the chlorophyll concentration of three phytoplankton groups, partitioned according to size [pico- (<2 μm), nano- (2–20 μm) and micro-phytoplankton (>20 μm)]. The method is modified to account for the influence of sea surface temperature, also available from satellite data, on model parameters and on the partitioning of microphytoplankton into diatoms and dinoflagellates, such that the phytoplankton groups provided match those simulated in a state of the art marine ecosystem model (the European Regional Seas Ecosystem Model, ERSEM). The method is validated using another dataset, independent of the data used to parameterize the method, of more than 800 satellite and in situ match-ups. Using fuzzy-logic techniques for deriving per-pixel uncertainty, developed within the ESA Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative (OC-CCI), the match-up dataset is used to derive the root mean square error and the bias between in situ and satellite estimates of the chlorophyll for each phytoplankton group, for 14 different optical water types (OWT). These values are then used with satellite estimates of OWTs to map uncertainty in chlorophyll on a per pixel basis for each phytoplankton group. It is envisaged these satellite products will be useful for those working on the validation of, and assimilation of data into, marine ecosystem models that simulate different phytoplankton groups.

description: Ab-initio results for structural and electronic properties of NaCl-type FeN are presented in a framework of plane-wave and ultrasoft pseudopotentials. Competition among different magnetic ordering is examined. We find the ferromagnetic phase stable overall. Stabilization over the unpolarized phase is obtained by splitting one flat t_2g-type band crossing the Fermi energy. A comparison with CrN is considered. We find large differences in the properties of the two systems that can be addressed to the smaller ionicity and magnetization of FeN.

description: We compute the branching ratios for the radiative rare decays of B into K-Meson states and compare them to the experimentally determined branching ratio for inclusive decay b -> s gamma using non relativistic quark model, and form factor definitions consistent with HQET covariant trace formalism. Such calculations necessarily involve a potential model. In order to test the sensitivity of calculations to potential models we have used three different potentials, namely linear potential, screening confining potential and heavy quark potential as it stands in QCD.We find the branching ratios relative to the inclusive b ->s gamma decay to be (16.07\pm 5.2)% for B -> K^* (892)gamma and (7.25\pm 3.2)% for B -> K_2^* (1430)gamma for linear potential. In the case of the screening confining potential these values are (19.75\pm 5.3)% and (4.74\pm 1.2)% while those for the heavy quark potential are (11.18\pm 4.6)% and (5.09\pm 2.7)% respectively. All these values are consistent with the corresponding present CLEO experimental values: (16.25\pm 1.21)% and (5.93\pm 0.46)%.

description: We calculate the decay constant ratios $f_{η_c}/f_{J/ψ}$ and $f_{η_b}/f_Υ$. In the calculation we take into account the mock meson structures of the mesons, as well as the difference of the wave functions at origin of the vector and pseudoscalar mesons studied by Ahmady and Mendel. We find that the different spin structures of the mesons much affect the ratios. We incorporate our results in the prediction of the branching ratios of $B\to K η_c$.
