Subjects: subject: CPU burst prediction

subject: pattern based predictor

description: CPU burst durations for several jobs were measured. The CPU bursts exhibited pat- terns over time. A partially observable Markov process was used to model CPU burst generation. The model seems to fit data reasonably well. A simulation study on general prediction schemes was carried out. A job's predicted burst was made to fall within a confidence region with a certain probability. The effect of the length of the confidence region and the probability of predicting within that region were studied. The device utilizations were remarkably insensitive to predictive accuracy. A pattern based predictor was developed and it yielded satisfactory schedules.
Sphalerons, instantons, and standing waves on $S^3 \otimes R$

description: We consider pure $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory when the space is compactified to a 3-dimensional sphere with finite radius. The Euclidean classical self-dual solutions of the equations of motion (the instantons) and the static finite energy solutions (the sphalerons) which have been found earlier are rewritten in handy physical variables with the gauge condition $A_0 = 0$. Stationary solutions to the equations of motion in the Minkowski space-time (the standing waves) are discussed. We briefly discuss also the theory defined in a flat finite spherical box with rigid boundary conditions and present the numerical solution describing the sphaleron.

description: The piecewise constant Mumford-Shah (PCMS) model and the Rudin-Osher-Fatemi (ROF) model are two important variational models in image segmentation and image restoration, respectively. In this paper, we explore a linkage between these models. We prove that for the two-phase segmentation problem a partial minimizer of the PCMS model can be obtained by thresholding the minimizer of the ROF model. A similar linkage is still valid for multiphase segmentation under specific assumptions. Thus it opens a new segmentation paradigm: image segmentation can be done via image restoration plus thresholding. This new paradigm, which circumvents the innate non-convex property of the PCMS model, therefore improves the segmentation performance in both efficiency (much faster than state-of-the-art methods based on PCMS model, particularly when the phase number is high) and effectiveness (producing segmentation results with better quality) due to the flexibility of the ROF model in tackling degraded images, such as noisy images, blurry images or images with information loss. As a by-product of the new paradigm, we derive a novel segmentation method, called thresholded-ROF (T-ROF) method, to illustrate the virtue of managing image segmentation through image restoration techniques. The convergence of the T-ROF method is proved, and elaborate experimental results and comparisons are presented.

description: We describe conceptual and initial implementation work carried out to investigate a new class of question-answering systems operating on large, complex data-bases. These systems have the following capabilities: 1) they may suggest to the user new questions, similar to those asked by the user, but that may not have occurred to him since he has limited knowledge of the data-base. 2) they answer questions in complex, non-linear data-bases. Hence, this is an effort to investigate data-bases other than the typical inventory data-bases, and their related set-theoretic cum elementary statistics questions. 3) they make suggestions ta the user about information related to the question, but not explicitly contained in the question. Alternate questions are suggested when the user's question is near a discontinuity in the database. In this case, the "Well, you didn't ask me..." syndrome is avoided. The data-base is organized along several dimensions to make such discontinuities apparent. A discontinuity results if a small change in one dimension of a question could result in a great discontinuity in the answer. Illustrative examples from tax laws, freight transportation, design and in particular air fares are given.

Exactly Decoupled Kalman Filtering for Multitarget State Estimation with Sensor Bias

description: The problem of multisensor multitarget state estimation in the presence of constant but unknown sensor biases is investigated. The classical approach to this problem is to augment the state vector to include the states of all the targets and the sensor biases, and then implement an augmented state Kalman filter (ASKF). In this paper, we propose a novel decoupled Kalman filtering algorithm. The decoupled Kalman filtering first processes each target in a separate branch, namely the single-target Kalman filtering branch, where the single-target states and the sensor biases are estimated. Then the bias estimate is refined by fusing the former bias estimates across all the single-target Kalman filtering branches. Finally, the refined bias estimate is fed back to each single-target Kalman filtering branch to improve the target state estimation. We prove that the proposed decoupled Kalman filtering is exactly equivalent to the ASKF in terms of the estimation results under a usual initial condition. The equivalence is also confirmed via the numerical example. Moreover, we further validate the proposed algorithm using the field experimental data of a multistatic passive radar.
Supernova electron capture rates on odd-odd nuclei

description: At densities between 10^8 and 10^10} g/cm^3 electron capture in a presupernova collapse is believed to mainly occur on odd-odd nuclei. We have derived the rates for six of the most important electron capturing nuclei, {54,56,58}Mn and {56,58,60}Co, based on calculations of the Gamow-Teller strength distributions for the ground states and first excited states. These calculations have been performed by shell model diagonalization in the pf shell using a recently modified version of the KB3 interaction. The shell model rates are noticeably smaller than the presently adopted rates as the latter have been derived by placing the Gamow-Teller (GT) resonance at too low excitation energies.

title: Several observations on the use of conjugate gradient methods

Publisher: name: The University of Texas at Austin

Subjects: subject: conjugate gradient methods
subject: conjugate gradient algorithm
subject: dense and banded systems
subject: positive definite systems

description: The conjugate gradient algorithm for symmetric, positive definite systems should be viewed as an iterative algorithm (independent of its theoretical finite convergence). Its effectiveness for a particular problem depends upon the number of iterations required to achieve a certain accuracy. In this paper we discuss the theoretical bounds on convergence as well as experimental results for particular problem classes. We also compare the standard conjugate gradient algorithm with the minimum residual variant and consider the use of such algorithms for dense and banded systems.
Multiple zero modes of the Dirac operator in three dimensions

description: One of the key properties of Dirac operators is the possibility of a degeneracy of zero modes. For the Abelian Dirac operator in three dimensions the construction of multiple zero modes has been sucessfully carried out only very recently. Here we generalise these results by discussing a much wider class of Dirac operators together with their zero modes. Further we show that those Dirac operators that do admit zero modes may be related to Hopf maps, where the Hopf index is related to the number of zero modes in a simple way.

It focuses on the machine's mistakes, in order to try to explain its causes. The biblical story of Caïn and Abel has been chosen because of its rich interpretive and critical tradition, but also because of its semantic difficulty. The investigation begins with the observation, for the translation of this text, of the language pairs and interfaces offered by the best known machine translation services (Google Translate, DeepL). A typology of the most frequent translation errors is then established. Finally, contemporary translations are compared, in order to underline the unique contribution of each. In conclusion, the article suggests a revision of translation theory and, corArtificial Intelligence, Translation, Limitations, Interpretation, Comparison, Unicityelatively, a reformulation of its technology concerning cultural texts.

description: Staying abroad during their studies is increasingly popular for students. However, there are various challenges for both students and universities. One important question for students is whether or not achievements performed at different universities can be taken into account for either enrolling at a foreign university or for completing the studies at their home university. In addition to university achievements, an increasing proportion of the 195 million students worldwide increasingly receive certificates from MOOCs or other social media services. The integration of such services into university teaching is still in the initial stages and presents some challenges. In this paper we describe the idea to manage all these study achievements worldwide in a blockchain, which might solve the national and international challenges regarding the recognition of student achievements. The aim of this paper is to encourage discussion in the global community instead of presenting a finished concept. Some of the open research questions are: How to ensure student data protection, how to deal with fraud and how to deal with the possibility that students can analytically calculate the easiest way through their studies?

Mao Zedong’s ‘Art of the 1962 War’: Perception of Opportunity Versus Perception of Threat

Subjects: subject: 160604 Defence Studies

description: 55 years to the 1962 War, but the shadow still looms large in the current discourse of Sino-Indian relations. The consequence of this was strongly testified by the 2017 Doklam stand-off that brought the two countries at loggerhead, wherein 1962 became the key point of reference to the current dilemma. This very factor exemplifies the relevance of understanding the 1962 war in the current context, and more importantly, from a Chinese perspective. What makes it so is the lack of understanding of China’s motivation behind the 1962 war. This critical gap calls for significant deliberation on certain key questions, such as: what enforced Chinese leadership to opt for war in 1962 after being passive for years without any armed aggression against India? Was the war a tactical response to India’s “Forward Policy” or was it a mentally calculated measure to wait for the right time? Did the war have direct links to China’s domestic and international confrontations? Was the war in the best interest of Chinese leadership?  In this perspective, the present paper aims to fill this gap by assessing ‘how the war was played out’ on the Chinese side, and more specifically, what motivated Mao Zedong’s choice of the 1962 war. Taking Mao Zedong’s individual cognition as the key factor, the paper seeks to assess Mao’s decision to wage the war based on his ‘perception of opportunity’ vis-a-vis ‘perception of threat or injury’.

description: Water levels on Mono Lake (California) declined rapidly from the late 1940s to the early 1980s during a period of increased anthropogenic diversions. Water levels have remained chronically low despite implementation of management plans limiting diversions starting in 1994. Restoring Mono Lake water levels requires a differentiation and understanding of historical drivers of hydrologic variability, and a propagation of that understanding into scenario-based water level management plans. We address this need by first reconstructing Mono Lake's historical water balance using a novel Bayesian inference model. We then use our new water balance component estimates to evaluate four climate change and water diversion scenarios. We find that neither climate change nor diversions alone are solely responsible for the persistent low water levels on Mono Lake. Our results, including our new historical record and scenario analysis framework, provide important guidance to water resource management planners on why Mono Lake still needs saving, and what strategies could be employed to ensure its water levels are restored in the future.

In this paper we present the analytical formulae for this model in a particular case. Here the Boltzmann weights depend on six free parameters including the elliptic modulus. The obtained solution allows to construct a two-parametric family of the commuting two-layer transfer matrices. Presented model is expected to be simpler for a further investigation in comparison with a more general model mentioned above.

description: Online access to species occurrence records has opened new windows into investigating biodiversity patterns across multiple scales. The value of these records for research depends on their spatial, temporal, and taxonomic quality. We assessed temporal patterns in records from the Australasian Virtual Herbarium, asking: (1) How temporally consistent has collecting been across Australia? (2) Which areas of Australia have the most reliable records, in terms of temporal consistency and inventory completeness? (3) Are there temporal trends in the completeness of attribute information associated with records? We undertook a multi-step filtering procedure, then estimated temporal consistency and inventory completeness for sampling units (SUs) of 50 km × 50 km. We found temporal bias in collecting, with 80% of records collected over the period 1970–1999. South-eastern Australia, the Wet Tropics in north-east Queensland, and parts of Western Australia have received the most consistent sampling effort over time, whereas much of central Australia has had low temporal consistency. Of the SUs, 18% have relatively complete inventories with high temporal consistency in sampling. We also determined that 25% of digitized records had missing attribute information. By identifying areas with low reliability, we can limit erroneous inferences about distribution patterns and identify priority areas for future sampling.

description: We apply the method of unitary transformations to a model two-nucleon potential and construct from it an effective potential in a subspace of momenta below a given cut-off $Λ$. The S-matrices in the full space and in the subspace are shown to be identical. We solve numerically the Schrödinger equation in the small momentum space and recover exactly the bound and scattering states of the full theory. We then expand the heavy repulsive meson exchange of the effective potential in a series of local contact terms and discuss the question of naturalness of the corresponding coupling constants. Using our exact effective theory we address further issues related to the chiral perturbation theory approach of the two-nucleon system. The coordinate space representation of the effective potential is also considered.

description: A new data cleaning procedure for electron cyclotron emission imaging (ECEI) of EAST tokamak is constructed. Machine learning techniques, including SVM and Decision tree, are applied to identifying saturated, zero, and weak signals of ECEI raw data, which not only reduces the effort of researchers for data analysis, but also improves the accuracy of data preprocessing. To enhance the reliability of the procedure, proper training sets are sampled based on massive raw data from the experiments of ECEI on EAST tokamak. Window size of temporal signal, kernel function, and other model parameters are obtained after model training. Consequently, the recognition rates of saturated, zero, and weak signals in raw data are 99.4%, 99.86%, and 99.9%, respectively, which proves the accuracy of this procedure.

description: We study codimension one branes, i.e. p-branes in (p+2)-dimensions, in the superembedding approach for the cases where the worldvolume superspace is embedded in a minimal target superspace with half supersymmetry breaking. This singles out the cases p=1,2,3,5,9. For p=3,5,9 the superembedding geometry naturally involves a fundamental super 2-form potential on the worldvolume whose generalised field strength obeys a constraint deducible from considering an open supermembrane ending on the p-brane. This constraint, together with the embedding constraint, puts the system on-shell for p=5 but overconstrains the 9-brane in D=11 such that the Goldstone superfield is frozen. For p=3 these two constraints give rise to an off-shell linear multiplet on the worldvolume. An alternative formulation of this case is given in which the linear multiplet is dualised to an off-shell scalar multiplet. Actions are constructed for both cases and are shown to give equivalent equations of motion. After gauge fixing a local Sp(1) symmetry associated with shifts in the Sp(1)_R Goldstone modes, we find that the auxiliary fields in the scalar multiplet parametrise a two-sphere. For completeness we also discuss briefly the cases p=1,2 where the equations of motion (for off-shell multiplets) are obtained from an action principle.

title: Predictors of Self-Esteem in Children Exposed to Potentially Traumatic Events

description: Self-esteem is not only important for the well being of a child, but the effects of low levels of self-esteem can continue well into adulthood. Past research identifies many possible predictors of self-esteem including: age, gender, Ethnicity, interpersonal relationships, parenting techniques and locus of control. One downfall of previous literature is the lack of exploration performed with high-risk samples. This study aims to begin to fill this void.

Utilizing data from the INVEST project, the current analysis examines predictors of self esteem among 161 children and adolescents aged 8-17, referred to a hospital based Child Advocacy Center due to exposure to traumatic events. The analysis shows that age, interpersonal relationships and locus of control are significant predictors of self-esteem within this sample. Older children had lower self-esteem levels than younger one , less conflict present in interpersonal relationships was associated with higher levels of self-esteem and a more internal locus of control was associated with higher levels of self-esteem. It was also determined that the high-risk adolescent sample used in this study had significantly lower levels of self-esteem than the general population comparison group.

Although limitations are present, including relatively small sample size and inability to provide causality, there are numerous strengths. These strengths include a vast dataset and the presence of a unique but important sample. This study serves as the first of many necessary to explore the predictors of self-esteem in high-risk samples.
Coronal Hole and Solar Global Magnetic Field Evolution in 1976-2012

description: Coronal hole spatial-temporal evolution is studied and comparison made with that of the solar global magnetic field in cycles 21-23 (1976-2012). The latitude-longitude distribution dynamics of coronal holes and the regularities in the global magnetic field associated with the solar polar field reversal are analyzed. Polar and non-polar coronal hole populations are considered. The investigation reveals some temporal and spatial regularities in coronal hole distributions that match well the global magnetic-field cycle evolution. The results show that the non-polar coronal hole longitudinal distribution follows all configuration changes in the global magnetic-field structure. Reorganizations of the global magnetic-field and coronal hole distributions occur simultaneously during a time interval of a few solar rotations. The cycle evolution of the non-polar coronal holes reflects the transition of the solar global magnetic field from the zonal structure to sectorial andvice versa. Two different type waves of non-polar coronal holes are revealed from their latitudinal distribution. The first one is short poleward waves. They trace the poleward motion of the unipolar photospheric magnetic fields from approximately 35 deg to the associated pole in each hemisphere and the redevelopment of a new-polarity polar CH. Although they start the poleward movement before the change of the polar magnetic field in the associated hemisphere, they reach the pole after the polar reversal. The other type of non-polar CH wave forms two sinusoidal branches associated with the positive- and negative-polarity magnetic fields. The complete period of the wave was equal to approximately 268 CRs (22 years). These wave CHs arrive at high latitudes during declining phases when the new polarity polar CHs are already completely formed.

description: Our ability to build autonomous agents that leverage Generative AI continues to increase by the day. As builders and users of such agents it is unclear what parameters we need to align on before the agents start performing tasks on our behalf. To discover these parameters, we ran a qualitative empirical research study about designing agents that can negotiate during a fictional yet relatable task of selling a camera online. We found that for an agent to perform the task successfully, humans/users and agents need to align over 6 dimensions: 1) Knowledge Schema Alignment 2) Autonomy and Agency Alignment 3) Operational Alignment and Training 4) Reputational Heuristics Alignment 5) Ethics Alignment and 6) Human Engagement Alignment. These empirical findings expand previous work related to process and specification alignment and the need for values and safety in Human-AI interactions. Subsequently we discuss three design directions for designers who are imagining a world filled with Human-Agent collaborations.

description: The fresh waters of the Baltic German and Polish lowlands are inhabited by several Gammarus species. One of them, Gammarus fossarum, a common inhabitant of lowland and submontane waters in western and central Europe, is known to show different morphotypes of unclear taxonomic status. Recent molecular studies showed that Gammarus fossarum is a complex of numerous highly divergent lineages. We characterized one of these lineages genetically and morphologically, described it as a species new to science and named it in honour of Krzysztof Jażdżewski as Gammarus jazdzewskii. The newly described species is widely distributed in Central Europe, from the Western Carpathians to the Baltic Lowlands. Its ancestral lineage appeared in the Miocene and diversified largely throughout the Pleistocene, presumably in the Western Carpathians. Its current distribution is predominantly a result of postglacial expansion from local refugia located in the Western Carpathians.

description: The forward Compton scattering amplitude for carbon and lead have been calculated from total photoabsorption cross section data by using dispersion relations. The results show a large difference between the scattering amplitudes for nuclei and the free nucleon, above the $Δ$ region. The forward Compton scattering cross sections have been calculated and compared with the available data. The Weise sum rule is discussed together with the prediction of a recent theoretical model.

description: This project is for the purchase of land in Blossom Point, Maryland which is currently leased by the Government for use by the Harry Diamond Laboratories (HDL) as a field test area, part of which is utilized through an out-grant from HDL to the Navy for use by the Navy as a communication station to contact earth satellites. The property owners do not wish to continue this lease, therefore the Government in consideration of the cost and factors involved in clearing the land of unexploded munitions is preparing this project for the land acquisition. This EIA is prepared in compliance with Army Regulation (AR) 200-1 to identify the environmental impacts from this proposed action. This site is one of the prime HDL test areas which has been used for field testing of fuzes since 1942 under lease agreement with the Corporation of Roman Catholic Brothers of Maryland. This test area is contaminated with the variety of unexploded ordinances which have accumulated since the original lease in 1942.

description: The monocular vision-based simultaneous localization and mapping (vSLAM) is one of the most challenging problem in mobile robotics and computer vision. In this work we study the post-processing techniques applied to sparse 3D point-cloud maps, obtained by feature-based vSLAM algorithms. Map post-processing is split into 2 major steps: 1) noise and outlier removal and 2) upsampling. We evaluate different combinations of known algorithms for outlier removing and upsampling on datasets of real indoor and outdoor environments and identify the most promising combination. We further use it to convert a point-cloud map, obtained by the real UAV performing indoor flight to 3D voxel grid (octo-map) potentially suitable for path planning.

description: We discuss how the BPS branes of M-theory could be described as bound states of non-BPS M10-branes. This conjectured M10-brane is constructed as an unstable spacetime-filling brane in the massive eleven dimensional supergravity defined with a Killing direction, such that 1) the BPS M9-brane is obtained after the tachyonic mode of an M2-brane ending on it condenses, and 2) it gives the non-BPS D9-brane of the type IIA theory upon reduction. The existence of other non-BPS M-branes is also discussed, together with their possible stabilisation within the Horava-Witten construction.
