description: The dynamical and stationary properties of on-line learning from finite training sets are analysed using the cavity method. For large input dimensions, we derive equations for the macroscopic parameters, namely, the student-teacher correlation, the student-student autocorrelation and the learning force uctuation. This enables us to provide analytical solutions to Adaline learning as a benchmark. Theoretical predictions of training errors in transient and stationary states are obtained by a Monte Carlo sampling procedure. Generalization and training errors are found to agree with simulations. The physical origin of the critical learning rate is presented. Comparison with batch learning is discussed throughout the paper.

description: The lack of radiotherapy linear accelerators (LINACs) in Low- and Middle- Income Countries (LMICs) has been recognised as a major barrier to providing quality cancer care in these regions, along with a shortfall in the number of highly qualified personnel. It is expected that additional challenges will be faced in operating precise, high tech radiotherapy equipment in these environments, and anecdotal evidence suggests that LINACs have greater downtime and higher failure rates of components than their counterparts in High-Income Countries. To guide future developments such as the design of a LINAC tailored for use in LMIC environments, it is important to take a data-driven approach to any re-engineering of the technology. However, no detailed statistical data on LINAC downtime and failure modes has been previously collected or presented in the literature. This work presents the first known comparative analysis of failure modes and downtime of current generation LINACs in radiotherapy centres, with the aim of determining any correlations between LINAC environment and performance. Logbooks kept by radiotherapy personnel on the operation of their LINAC were obtained and analysed from centres in Oxford (UK), Abuja, Benin, Enugu, Lagos, Sokoto (Nigeria) and Gaborone (Botswana). By deconstructing the LINAC into 12 different subsystems, it is found that the vacuum subsystem only fails in the LMIC centres and the failure rate in an LMIC environment is more than twice as large in 6 of the 12 subsystems compared to the High Income Country (HIC). Additionally, it is shown that despite accounting for only 3.4% of total number of faults, the LINAC faults which take more than an hour to repair account for 74.6% of the total downtime. The results of this study inform future attempts to mitigate the problems affecting LINACs in LMIC environments.

Ascesis and Devotion: The Mount Yudono Cult in Early Modern Japan
Creators: Castiglioni, Andrea
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2015
Subjects: Religion

description: This dissertation concerns the cult of Mount Yudono (located in present-day Yamagata Prefecture) during the Edo period (1603–1868).
      In the first chapter, I take into account the historical background and religious dynamics that led to the formation of the sacred territory of the Three Dewa Mountains (Dewa Sanzan), namely Mount Haguro, Mount Gassan, and Mount Chōkai, of which Mount Yudono was considered to be the shared sancta sanctorum.
      The second chapter analyzes the particularities of the religious institutions that administered the territory of Mount Yudono. Specifically, I focus on the pivotal role played by a special group of ascetics that were called “permanent ascetics” (issei gyōnin) in shaping the religious identity and tradition of this mountain.
      In the third chapter, I study the structures and meanings of the funerary rituals, which were performed in order to mummify the corpses of eminent issei gyōnin. This section underlines the symbiotic relationship between issei gyōnin and lay devotees, the latter of whom continued venerating the mummified remains of the ascetics and transmitting legends about them to consolidate and expand their religious charisma even after the ascetic’s demise.
      The fourth chapter focuses on the foundation stories (engi) about Mount Yudono and the rituals that characterized the pilgrimage toward this mountain. I show how the engi were fundamental tools for instilling devotional discourses and mythical memories about Yudono into large groups of social actors, many of whom visited this sacred territory as pilgrims.
      The fifth chapter explores the rich material and visual culture that characterized the cult of Mount Yudono. I underlined the importance of semiotic strategies that played a pivotal role in the ritual transfer of Mount Yudono to other numinous sites. These included the process of “intervisuality” (mitate) and the creation of stelae and sacred mounds (tsuka) in order to expand the devotional discourses associated with this mountain.

description: Asexuality has thus far been studied as a binary category attached to a spectrum of sexual orientation: those who are sexually attracted to the opposite sex, same-sex, both, or neither – representing asexuality. This study, in contrast, separates the spectrum of gendered sexual orientation from a spectrum of the amount of sexual attraction people have, where asexuality is at one end of the spectrum and hyper-sexuality is at the other, see Figure 1. An intermediate category of people, deemed gray-sexual, is compared to the asexual and sexual populations as another portion of this study’s spectrum. This population of gray-sexual people was larger than the asexual population and exhibited many demographic, attitudinal, and behavioral similarities to asexual people or had intermediary results between asexual and sexual people. Data came from three studies, the first two National Surveys of Sexual Attitude and Lifestyles in 1990 and 2000 (Natsal I and II) from the UK, and Towards Better Sexual Health (TBSH) in 2000. The data from TBSH found statistically similar percentages of asexuality (1.8%) in young people and almost twice as many gray-sexual young people (8.34% - TBSH, 4.42% - NATSAL I, 2.85% - NATSAL II). Notably, asexual and gray-sexual people were found to consume less alcohol and were more likely to abstain from drinking alcohol all together. Each of the three studies also found that asexual and gray sexual people drank significantly less (40.00%-72.64%, and 28.06%-41.96%, non-drinkers respectively) than sexual people (10.12%-15.34%, non-drinkers).

description: Verfassungsgerichte werden oft als bedeutende Akteure in Transformationsprozessen angesehen. Von diesen im Zuge einer Demokratisierung neu eingerichteten Verfassungsgerichten unterscheidet sich das ägyptische Verfassungsgericht (Supreme Constitutional Court, SCC) dadurch, dass es bereits mit der Verfassung von 1971 gegründet wurde; im autoritären System Ägyptens hat es mitunter eine äußerst wichtige, aber auch ambivalente Rolle gespielt. Nach dem Sturz Mubaraks ist das Gericht – trotz der Suspendierung der Verfassung durch den Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) – nicht aufgelöst worden und hat mit seinen Entscheidungen großen Einfluss auf die politischen Entwicklungen in Ägypten genommen. Das Working Paper geht anhand des ägyptischen Falls der Frage nach, welche Rolle etablierte Verfassungsgerichte in Transformationsprozessen spielen. Dabei stehen zwei zentrale Entscheidungen des Gerichts vom Juni 2012 im Mittelpunkt der Analyse. Das Paper zeigt auf, dass die frühere Rechtsprechung, das institutionelle Selbstverständnis des Gerichts und das Amtsverständnis der RichterInnen zentral sind, um die Rolle des Gerichts in der Umbruchsituation verstehen zu können.

description: This paper assesses the impact of large events such as the financial crisis in 2008 and the Copenhagen meeting in 2009 on the public attention attributed to the climate change issue and to the related policy discourse in the German press. Based on a quantitative content analysis of the two largest German national quality newspapers, a quasi-experimental approach will be adopted, testing the propositions of “punctuated equilibrium theory” (Baumgartner & Jones 1993) in policy analysis. The paper will also use concepts and approaches in the area of discourse analysis – from qualitative methods to more formal quantitative approaches to the analysis of discourse structures and network relations (Janning et al 2009). Large scale and focusing events such as the economic crisis or the Copenhagen meeting can trigger shifts and changes in the discourse on climate change. Preliminary analysis has shown that the economic crisis produced a kink in the issue-attention cycle, triggering a substantial decrease in public attention as public attention to the economic crisis soared. Moreover, the results indicate that actors have changed their discursive behavior in the light of the economic crisis, entailing changes in the actors’ standing and the frames applied by them to the issue of climate change (Vogt 2009). As natural experiments run short of quantifying causal links between variables, the observed changes in public attention and discursive behavior can at least be explained by qualitative explanatory sketches in which the changes and shifts are traced and interrelated by visual descriptions at various levels.

description: The narratives of Asian American female sex workers are stories that demonstrate pain, pleasure, and power. These depictions often portray a woman as desirable (submissive and obedient because she was “saved” by a White man) or undesirable (war prostitute disrupting the purity of America). This is due to the failed efforts from policymakers and English educators to look beyond simple Black versus White racial relationships and beyond the needs of White feminists. When this occurs, the Asian American female student finds herself invisible. The purpose of this study was to look specifically through the niche demographic of Asian American female sex workers. This study was not meant to exclude other women, men, and humans of Asian descent, or sex workers of other races, but these are the first individuals I had the privilege of accessing as I am only beginning my sex work scholar journey. These particular women are of Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese descent, and this specified the research of my literature review. Because they also all identify as cisgender, gender dynamics were explored in this context. The participants were sampled to explore the historical and current conditions of Asian American females, the curriculum they received (or did not receive) in their high school English classes regarding Asian American female protagonists or storytelling of the body, and how these factors affected their sex work experiences. This research also moved to deepen the definition of sex work. As sex work is traditionally a consensual sexual service or erotic performance in exchange for money or goods, many women provide their services without consent or without money—and sometimes without both. The sex work, or sexual abuse, is then more of an unwanted labor they are forced to carry with them painfully. This research was not out to prove sex work is wrong or right; rather, it talked across the pain, pleasure, profit, problems, and power of these experiences. It also presents a more modernized take on sexual ways of being. I reached an authentic understanding of how these women’s bodies were navigated in the classroom, the bedroom, and beyond. With their stories, new policies and pedagogies are proposed to better serve forgotten female students in the English classroom by using the body as an entry point for unique storytelling.

description: The main aim of this paper is to present new sets of non-perturbative fragmentation functions (FFs) for $D^0$ and $D^+$ mesons at next-to-leading (NLO) and, for the first time, at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ factorization scheme with five massless quark flavors. This new determination of FFs is based on the QCD fit to the {\tt OPAL} experimental data for hadron production in the electron-positron single-inclusive annihilation (SIA). We discuss in detail the novel aspects of the methodology used in our analysis and the validity of obtained FFs by comparing with previous works in literature which have been carried out up to NLO accuracy. We will also incorporate the effect of charmed meson mass corrections into our QCD analysis and discuss the improvements upon inclusion of these effects. The uncertainties in the extracted FFs as well as in the corresponding observables are estimated using the "Hessian" approach. For a typical application, we use our new FFs to make theoretical predictions for the energy distributions of charmed mesons inclusively produced through the decay of unpolarized top quarks, to be measured at the CERN LHC. As a result of this analysis, suggestions are discussed for possible future studies on the current topic to consider any theory improvements and other available experimental observables.

description: This document presents the 5GASP experimentation facing services, the specific implementation actions to create a multi-domain NFV/SDN fabric and the necessary facilities adaptations to support the introduced open, standardized and unified interfaces. Based on the first 5GASP reference architecture (D2.1), NetApp Onboarding and Deployments Services (NODS) are the founding pillar of the 5GASP ecosystem providing a single entry-point to NetApp developers. The establishment of NODS actors provides guidance towards the extraction of implementation requirements, internal architecture and the interaction with its adjacent components through well-defined interfaces. Furthermore, this document sets the fundamental requirements to sculpture the underlying multi-domain fabric and introduces the implementation approaches of the mature 5G facilities, constituting the overall 5GASP infrastructure.

description: In this paper, we consider an unknown functional estimation problem in a general nonparametric regression model with the feature of having both multiplicative and additive noise.We propose two new wavelet estimators in this general context. We prove that they achieve fast convergence rates under the mean integrated square error over Besov spaces. The obtained rates have the particularity of being established under weak conditions on the model. A numerical study in a context comparable to stochastic frontier estimation (with the difference that the boundary is not necessarily a production function) supports the theory.

Asian American college students' mathematics success and the model minority stereotype
Creators: Jo, Lydia Hyeryung

Subjects: Mathematics--Study and teaching

description: The often aggregated reports of academic excellence of Asian American students as a whole, compared to students from other ethnic groups offers compelling evidence that Asian Americans are more academically successful than their ethnic counterparts, particularly in the area of mathematics. These comparative data have generated many topics of discussion including the model minority stereotype: a misconception that all Asian Americans are high academic achievers. Research has shown that this seemingly positive stereotype produces negative effects in Asian students. The aim of this study is to examine differences in mathematics success levels and beliefs about the model minority stereotype among different generations of Asian American college students. This study focuses on comparing three different generations of Asian American students with respect to: (1) their success and confidence in mathematics, (2) their personal views on the factors that contribute to their success, (3) their perceptions of the model minority stereotype and (4) how they believe the stereotype affects them. In this mixed methods study, a sample of n = 117 Asian American college students participated in an online survey to collect quantitative data and a subsample of n = 9 students were able to participate in a semi-structured interview. The results of the study indicated that there were almost no differences in either the mathematics success and confidence level, or in the perceptions and perceived effects of the model minority stereotype across generations. Quantitative results showed that all generations of Asian Americans generally are confident in their mathematics abilities. Qualitative analysis showed that the students felt that there were three reasons for their level of success: parental influence, differences in the education system between the U.S. and their home country, and using mathematics and science to get ahead academically as their native English speaking peers tend to be ahead of them in the liberal arts due to language barriers. Though there were mixed feelings among the sample subjects about the validity of the model minority stereotype, all three generations of Asian American students felt peer pressure from the stereotype to excel in mathematics, more frequently in high school than in college.

description: Agricultural policies aim to reduce synthetic plant protection products (PPPs), including prophylactic seed treatments. A broader use of untreated seed would help limit synthetic PPP applications. Currently, seed is certified through the visual detection of seed-borne diseases, including loose smut (Ustilago nuda) of barley (Hordeum vulgare). U. nuda infection is asymptomatic in seeds and plants until its teliospores develop at barley heading. PCR-based molecular detection of U. nuda can help streamline the certification process for untreated seed and improve its accuracy and precision. We developed a multiplex qPCR protocol that targets U. nuda and H. vulgare DNA. The new molecular assay and a visual detection method using extracted embryos were performed to analyze seed samples with varying rates of infection. The resulting disease levels were then evaluated in field. Based on the 2022 data, U. nuda field infections show a stronger positive correlation with the qPCR results than those from the visual analysis of embryos. The experimental results enable us to propose a threshold value of U. nuda/H. vulgare DNA to delineate healthy and diseased seeds. Future research with additional samples from practice is needed to validate the proposed threshold under diverse environmental conditions. Molecular methods in seed health testing could aid in the wider adoption of sowing untreated seed and reduce synthetic PPP application.

description: Among different bacteria colonizing the bovine uterus, Trueperella pyogenes is found to be associated with clinical endometritis (CE). The ability of cows to defend against T. pyogenes infections depends on the virulence of invading bacteria and on the host's innate immunity. Therefore, to gain insights into bacterial factors contributing to the interplay of this host pathogen, two strains of T. pyogenes were included in this study: one strain (TP2) was isolated from the uterus of a postpartum dairy cow developing CE and a second strain (TP5) was isolated from a uterus of a healthy cow. The two strains were compared in terms of their metabolic fingerprints, growth rate, virulence gene transcription, and effect on bovine endometrial epithelial cells in vitro. In addition, the effect of the presence of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) on the response of endometrial epithelial cells was evaluated. TP2, the strain isolated from the diseased cow, showed a higher growth rate, expressed more virulence factors (cbpA, nanH, fimE, and fimG), and elicited a higher mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory factors (PTGS2, CXCL3, and IL8) in bovine endometrial epithelial cells compared with TP5, the strain isolated from the healthy cow. The presence of PBMCs amplified the mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory factors (PTGS2, CXCL3, IL1A, IL6, and IL8) in bovine endometrial epithelial cells co-cultured with live TP2 compared with untreated cells, especially as early as after 4 h. In conclusion, particular strain characteristics of T. pyogenes were found to be important for the development of CE. Furthermore, immune cells attracted to the site of infection might also play an important role in up-regulation of the pro-inflammatory response in the bovine uterus and thus significantly contribute to the host-pathogen interaction.

description: Some atmospheric gases have been proposed as counter indicators to the presence of life on an exoplanet if remotely detectable at sufficient abundance (i.e., antibiosignatures), informing the search for biosignatures and potentially fingerprinting uninhabited habitats. However, the quantitative extent to which putative antibiosignatures could exist in the atmospheres of inhabited planets is not well understood. The most commonly referenced potential antibiosignature is CO, because it represents a source of free energy and reduced carbon that is readily exploited by life on Earth and is thus often assumed to accumulate only in the absence of life. Yet, biospheres actively produce CO through biomass burning, photooxidation processes, and release of gases that are photochemically converted into CO in the atmosphere. We demonstrate with a 1D ecosphere-atmosphere model that reducing biospheres can maintain CO levels of ~100 ppmv even at low H2 fluxes due to the impact of hybrid photosynthetic ecosystems. Additionally, we show that photochemistry around M dwarf stars is particularly favorable for the buildup of CO, with plausible concentrations for inhabited, oxygen-rich planets extending from hundreds of ppm to several percent. Since CH4 buildup is also favored on these worlds, and because O2 and O3 are likely not detectable with the James Webb Space Telescope, the presence of high CO (>100 ppmv) may discriminate between oxygen-rich and reducing biospheres with near-future transmission observations. These results suggest that spectroscopic detection of CO can be compatible with the presence of life and that a comprehensive contextual assessment is required to validate the significance of potential antibiosignatures.

Properties of the partition function of ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric QCD with massive matter

description: We study the different quantum phases that occur in massive ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric QCD with gauge groups $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$ as the coupling $Λ/M$ is gradually increased from 0 to infinity. The phases can be identified by computing the exact partition function by saddle-points, combining supersymmetric localization and the Seiberg-Witten formalism. In all cases, we find two phases, a weak coupling and a strong coupling phase, separated by a critical point described by a superconformal field theory or involving superconformal sectors. In crossing the critical point, the dominant saddle-point hops from one singularity of the curve to another one. The theories seem to undergo a second-order phase transition with divergent susceptibility.

description: Left-modularity is a concept that generalizes modularity in lattice theory. In this paper, we give a characterization of left-modular elements and derive two formulae for the characteristic polynomial of a lattice with such an element, one of which generalizes Stanley's Partial Factorization Theorem for a geometric lattice with a modular element. Both formulae provide us with inductive proofs of Blass and Sagan's Total Factorization Theorem for LL lattices. The characteristic polynomials and Mobius functions of non-crossing partition lattices and shuffle posets are computed as examples.

description: Single-photon sources are of great interest because they are key elements in different promising applications of quantum technologies. Here we demonstrate a highly efficient tunable on-demand microwave single-photon source based on a transmon qubit with the intrinsic emission efficiency above 98$\%$. The high efficiency ensures a negligible pure dephasing rate and the necessary condition for generation of indistinguishable photons. We provide an extended discussion and analysis of the efficiency of the photon generation. To further experimentally confirm the single-photon property of the source, correlation functions of the emission field are also measured using linear detectors with a GPU-enhanced signal processing technique. Our results experimentally demonstrate that frequency tunability and negligible pure dephasing rate can be achieved simultaneously and show that such a tunable single-photon source can be good for various practical applications in quantum communication, simulations and information processing in the microwave regime.

description: In this paper we characterize the behavior of solutions to systems of boundary integral equations associated with Laplace transmission problems in composite media consisting of regions with polygonal boundaries. In particular we consider triple junctions, i.e. points at which three distinct media meet. We show that, under suitable conditions, solutions to the boundary integral equations in the vicinity of a triple junction are well-approximated by linear combinations of functions of the form $t^β,$ where $t$ is the distance of the point from the junction and the powers $β$ depend only on the material properties of the media and the angles at which their boundaries meet. Moreover, we use this analysis to design efficient discretizations of boundary integral equations for Laplace transmission problems in regions with triple junctions and demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of this algorithm with a number of examples.
