description: Shared mental models are critical to team success; however, in practice, team members may have misaligned models due to a variety of factors. In safety-critical domains (e.g., aviation, healthcare), lack of shared mental models can lead to preventable errors and harm. Towards the goal of mitigating such preventable errors, here, we present a Bayesian approach to infer misalignment in team members' mental models during complex healthcare task execution. As an exemplary application, we demonstrate our approach using two simulated team-based scenarios, derived from actual teamwork in cardiac surgery. In these simulated experiments, our approach inferred model misalignment with over 75% recall, thereby providing a building block for enabling computer-assisted interventions to augment human cognition in the operating room and improve teamwork.

An evaluation of innovative marketing strategies employed to recruit Colombian students into the UK higher education sector. A proposal for developing guidelines to select marketing strategies to increase recruitment and retention
Creators: name: Leguizamon, Luz Stella
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This research focuses on Colombia, a country where students are committed to gaining deep knowledge that can be applied in practice to contribute to national economic development. In recent years, the number of international students coming to the UK has declined. In response, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have been developing new marketing strategies to re-engage the international student market.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate how UK HEIs use marketing strategies to attract Colombian students, how these strategies align with cultural and customer needs, and whether they require innovation or improvement. The study highlights that institutions leading in educational development are those embracing innovation in their marketing, particularly through effective use of social media, intuitive websites with relevant information, and real-time chat support for prospective students.

Primary, qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interviews with Colombian students who studied in the UK, as well as education agents working with UK universities. The findings offer insight into the effectiveness of current marketing strategies and reveal how Colombia remains a strategic market for educational investment.

The research shows that Colombian students tend to compare educational systems and hold high expectations of UK institutions. These expectations influence their decisions throughout the recruitment journey. Feedback from students is also highly valued by agencies, as it provides crucial insights for improving services.

The study concludes with recommendations for alternative marketing strategies that UK universities can adopt to improve both recruitment and retention of Colombian students. By understanding the unique expectations and experiences of this student group, HEIs can better position themselves to serve the growing demand for international education.

description: As is well-known, the dimension of the space spanned by the non-degenerate invariant symmetric bilinear forms (NISes) on any simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra or Lie superalgebra is equal to at most 1 if the characteristic of the algebraically closed ground field is not 2. We prove that in characteristic 2, the superdimension of the space spanned by NISes can be equal to 0, or 1, or $0|1$, or $1|1$; it is equal to $1|1$ if and only if the Lie superalgebra is a queerification (defined in arXiv:1407.1695) of a simple classically restricted Lie algebra with a NIS (for examples, mainly in characteristic distinct from 2, see arXiv:1806.05505). We give examples of NISes on deformations (with both even and odd parameters) of several simple finite-dimensional Lie superalgebras in characteristic 2. We also recall examples of multiple NISes on simple Lie algebras over non-closed fields.

description: Modern compute nodes in high-performance computing provide a tremendous level of parallelism and processing power. However, as arithmetic performance has been observed to increase at a faster rate relative to memory and network bandwidths, optimizing data movement has become critical for achieving strong scaling in many communication-heavy applications. This performance gap has been further accentuated with the introduction of graphics processing units, which can provide by multiple factors higher throughput in data-parallel tasks than central processing units. In this work, we explore the computational aspects of iterative stencil loops and implement a generic communication scheme using CUDA-aware MPI, which we use to accelerate magnetohydrodynamics simulations based on high-order finite differences and third-order Runge-Kutta integration. We put particular focus on improving intra-node locality of workloads. Our GPU implementation scales strongly from one to $64$ devices at $50\%$--$87\%$ of the expected efficiency based on a theoretical performance model. Compared with a multi-core CPU solver, our implementation exhibits $20$--$60\times$ speedup and $9$--$12\times$ improved energy efficiency in compute-bound benchmarks on $16$ nodes.

description: Schizophrenia (SZ) is a mental disorder that typically emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood. It reduces the life expectancy of patients by 15 years. Abnormal behavior, perception of emotions, social relationships, and reality perception are among its most significant symptoms. Past studies have revealed that SZ affects the temporal and anterior lobes of hippocampus regions of the brain. Also, increased volume of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and decreased volume of white and gray matter can be observed due to this disease. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the popular neuroimaging technique used to explore structural/functional brain abnormalities in SZ disorder, owing to its high spatial resolution. Various artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have been employed with advanced image/signal processing methods to accurately diagnose SZ. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of studies conducted on the automated diagnosis of SZ using MRI modalities. First, an AI-based computer aided-diagnosis system (CADS) for SZ diagnosis and its relevant sections are presented. Then, this section introduces the most important conventional machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques in the diagnosis of diagnosing SZ. A comprehensive comparison is also made between ML and DL studies in the discussion section. In the following, the most important challenges in diagnosing SZ are addressed. Future works in diagnosing SZ using AI techniques and MRI modalities are recommended in another section. Results, conclusion, and research findings are also presented at the end.

description: Echo State Networks (ESNs) are a special type of recurrent neural networks (RNNs), in which the input and recurrent connections are traditionally generated randomly, and only the output weights are trained. Despite the recent success of ESNs in various tasks of audio, image and radar recognition, we postulate that a purely random initialization is not the ideal way of initializing ESNs. The aim of this work is to propose an unsupervised initialization of the input connections using the $K$-Means algorithm on the training data. We show that for a large variety of datasets this initialization performs equivalently or superior than a randomly initialized ESN whilst needing significantly less reservoir neurons. Furthermore, we discuss that this approach provides the opportunity to estimate a suitable size of the reservoir based on prior knowledge about the data.

description: Extracting metabolic features from liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data has been a long-standing bioinformatic challenge in untargeted metabolomics. Conventional feature extraction algorithms fail to recognize features with low signal intensities, poor chromatographic peak shapes, or those that do not fit the parameter settings. This problem also poses a challenge for MS-based exposome studies, as low-abundant metabolic or exposomic features cannot be automatically recognized from raw data. To address this data processing challenge, we developed an R package, JPA (short for Joint Metabolomic Data Processing and Annotation), to comprehensively extract metabolic features from raw LC-MS data. JPA performs feature extraction by combining a conventional peak picking algorithm and strategies for (1) recognizing features with bad peak shapes but that have tandem mass spectra (MS2) and (2) picking up features from a user-defined targeted list. The performance of JPA in global metabolomics was demonstrated using serial diluted urine samples, in which JPA was able to rescue an average of 25% of metabolic features that were missed by the conventional peak picking algorithm due to dilution. More importantly, the chromatographic peak shapes, analytical accuracy, and precision of the rescued metabolic features were all evaluated. Furthermore, owing to its sensitive feature extraction, JPA was able to achieve a limit of detection (LOD) that was up to thousands of folds lower when automatically processing metabolomics data of a serial diluted metabolite standard mixture analyzed in HILIC(−) and RP(+) modes. Finally, the performance of JPA in exposome research was validated using a mixture of 250 drugs and 255 pesticides at environmentally relevant levels. JPA detected an average of 2.3-fold more exposure compounds than conventional peak picking only.

Tabanus bromius

description: Tabanus bromius Linnaeus, 1758
 Tabanus bromius is a Palearctic species. It is very widely distributed and one of the common species in the family (Sanal Demirci et al. 2021). The species shows a long range of variations in all aspects, which is reflected in the long synonymy list (Chvála et al. 1972). Tabanus bromius is a well-known vector of trypanosomiasis, anthrax, and tularaemia (Krinsky 1976). In the Arab countries of the Middle East, this species was recorded by Sabr (2018) in Iraq, during a study of the relative abundance and seasonality of the horseflies. Moreover, Austen (1924) listed this species in Palestinian fauna. Chvála et al. (1972) mentioned the occurrence of bromius in all Middle East countries. Further studies are needed to clarify the occurrence of this important species in the Arab countries of the Middle East and its medical and veterinary importance.

description: Life-critical, real-time applications like flight-by-wire aircraft, rely on closed-loop digital control systems and fault-tolerant computer systems to reliably achieve the desired operation. The computer systems, however, may be affected by random hardware/software faults induced mainly by environmental conditions such as high intensity radiated fields (HIRF) and lightning. These harsh electromagnetic environments are known to induce common­ mode faults (CMF) in aircraft electronic systems, which disrupt fault-tolerant provisions and possibly affect the operation of the digital control system. Current flight-by-wire aircraft have computer systems that can neither detect CMF nor recover from them. New systems are under investigation that can recover from CMF using error recovery techniques. Never- the less, little is known about the effect of these recovery algorithms on the stability of the closed-loop flight control system.

The main objectives of this research are to analyze the stability of closed-loop discrete­ time digital flight control systems with error recovery capabilities that are triggered by a harsh electromagnetic environment and to compare the strengths and weaknesses of typical fault recovery methods. This research is an extension of previous work in which the environment is assumed to induce abrupt changes on the structure of the closed-loop representation, but the effect of error recovery systems was not considered. Three error recovery algorithms were considered: rollback, reset and cold-restart. For each case new closed-loop models that include their effect were developed. These models were then used with existing stochastic stability theory to determine the effect on stability. The theoretical analysis was then validated with Monte Carlo simulations, including two aircraft examples. An important consequence of this research is the availability of a new design tool that allow designers of error recovery systems to compare the benefits of the recovery algorithms and the impact of their parameters on the stability of the closed-loop flight control systems.

description: We report on the discovery of a mysterious ultra-steep spectrum (USS) synchrotron source in the galaxy cluster Abell 2877. We have observed the source with the Murchison Widefield Array at five frequencies across 72-231 MHz and have found the source to exhibit strong spectral curvature over this range as well the steepest known spectra of a synchrotron cluster source, with a spectral index across the central three frequency bands of $α= -5.97^{+0.40}_{-0.48}$. Higher frequency radio observations, including a deep observation with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, fail to detect any of the extended diffuse emission. The source is approximately 370 kpc wide and bears an uncanny resemblance to a jellyfish with two peaks of emission and long tentacles descending south towards the cluster centre. Whilst the `USS Jellyfish' defies easy classification, we here propose that the phenomenon is caused by the reacceleration and compression of multiple aged electron populations from historic active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity, so-called `radio phoenix', by an as yet undetected weak cluster-scale mechanism. The USS Jellyfish adds to a growing number of radio phoenix in cool-core clusters with unknown reacceleration mechanisms; as the first example of a polyphoenix, however, this implies the mechanism is on the scale of the cluster itself. Indeed, we show that in simulations, emission akin to the USS Jellyfish can be produced as a short-lived, transient phase in the evolution of multiple interacting AGN remnants when subject to weak external shocks.

Tabanus leleani

description: Tabanus leleani Austen, 1920
 This species is common throughout the world, recorded from Europe, the Near and Middle East, Oriental region, Siberia and North Africa from Morocco through Tunisia (Müller 2012c). Recorded from Iraq, Jordan, Palestine, and Syria (Theodor 1965; Al-Talafha et al. 2005; Al-Dhafer et al. 2009). This species was found in mountainous areas with altitudes up to 2200 to 2500 m (Chvála et al. 1972).
 The occurrence of leleani in Saudi Arabia needs more investigation. However, Al-Dhafer et al. (2009) listed Tabanus leleani turkestanicus Olsufjev from Saudia. This subspecies has paler coloration than leleani Austen (Chvála et al. 1972). More data is needed to confirm the ssp. turkestanicus. Tabanus leleani shows high variability in the shape of upper callus through the world (Chvála et al. 1972).

description: We carry out the first detailed calculations of jet production associated with $W$ gauge bosons in Pb+Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In our calculations, the production of $W$+jet in p+p collisions as a reference is obtained by Sherpa, which performs next-to-leading-order matrix element calculations matched to the resummation of parton shower simulations, while jet propagation and medium response in the quark-gluon plasma are simulated with the Linear Boltzmann Transport (LBT) model. We provide numerical predictions on seven observables of $W$+jet production with jet quenching in Pb+Pb collisions: the medium modification factor for the tagged jet cross sections $I_{AA}$, the distribution in invariant mass between the two leading jets in $N_{jets}\ge 2$ events $m_{jj}$, the missing $p_T$ or the vector sum of the lepton and jet transverse momentum $|\vec{p}_T^{Miss}|$, the summed scalar $p_T$ of all the jets in an event $S_T$, transverse momentum imbalance $x_{jW}$, average number of jets per $W$ boson $R_{jW}$, and azimuthal angle between the $W$ boson and jets $Δϕ_{jW}$. The distinct nuclear modifications of these seven observables in Pb+Pb relative to that in p+p collisions are presented with detailed discussions.

description: Background Respite care provides caregiving support to people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and their care partners by providing the care partner with temporary relief from their caregiving duties. The aim of this study was to explore the impact of respite care through the perspectives and lived experiences of people with ALS and their care partners. Methods Thirty-one dyads (62 participants) of people with ALS and their care partners were assigned to either the control group or the respite care intervention. Respite care was provided in the form of home-based services. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants at baseline and after a six-month period to gather perspectives on ALS caregiving, perceptions of respite care, and the respite care experience. Interviews were transcribed and subjected to thematic analysis. Results Caregiving challenges specific to the care partner and the patient-care partnership relationship were identified. Overall, people with ALS and care partners responded positively to in-home respite care and reported improved relationship quality, more time for the care partner to pursue personal commitments or take a break, and improved emotional well-being for both the person with ALS and the care partner. Barriers and concerns were raised surrounding privacy and staff consistency. Conclusion This study highlights respite care as a critical tool to alleviate caregiving challenges and support the needs of people with ALS and their care partners. Engagement with the ALS community and formal evaluations of respite care services should be prioritized in order to minimize barriers and best meet the needs of people with ALS and their care partners.

description: Tabanus lunatus Fabricius, 1794
 Tabanus lunatus is a Mediterranean species, found throughout Europe, the Near and Middle East, Central Asia, and North Africa (Chvála et al. 1972). It was reported from Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, and Syria (Theodor 1965; Chvála et al. 1977; Al-Talafha et al. 2005; Abu El-Hassan et al. 2013).
 According to Moucha & Chvála (1963) Olsufjev first described Tabanus bactrianus Olsufjev 1937 as a subspecies under lunatus. Abbassian-Lintzen (1962) considered bactrianus a variant of T. kermani. However, Moucha & Chvála (1963), Abbassian- Lintzen (1964), Chvála et al. (1972) treated bactrianus as accepted name and granted full specific level.

description: Deep neural networks (DNN) consist of layers of neurons interconnected by synaptic weights. A high bit-precision in weights is generally required to guarantee high accuracy in many applications. Minimizing error accumulation between layers is also essential when building large-scale networks. Recent demonstrations of photonic neural networks are limited in bit-precision due to crosstalk and the high sensitivity of optical components (e.g., resonators). Here, we experimentally demonstrate a record-high precision of 9 bits with a dithering control scheme for photonic synapses. We then numerically simulated the impact with increased synaptic precision on a wireless signal classification application. This work could help realize the potential of photonic neural networks for many practical, real-world tasks.

description: The real-time prediction of business processes using historical event data is an important capability of modern business process monitoring systems. Existing process prediction methods are able to also exploit the data perspective of recorded events, in addition to the control-flow perspective. However, while well-structured numerical or categorical attributes are considered in many prediction techniques, almost no technique is able to utilize text documents written in natural language, which can hold information critical to the prediction task. In this paper, we illustrate the design, implementation, and evaluation of a novel text-aware process prediction model based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks and natural language models. The proposed model can take categorical, numerical and textual attributes in event data into account to predict the activity and timestamp of the next event, the outcome, and the cycle time of a running process instance. Experiments show that the text-aware model is able to outperform state-of-the-art process prediction methods on simulated and real-world event logs containing textual data.

Tabanus olsufjevi

description: Tabanus olsufjevi Hauser, 1960
 Tabanus olsufjevi is a Palearctic species, recorded in Iran and Turkey. It belongs to the semiargenteus - subgroup of bovinus group that includes large species. Tabanus olsufjevi is a large species ranging in length from 23 to 25.5 mm. Given its considerable size and the fact that it is rarely seen in Tabanidae collections, it can be presumed that this species is likewise uncommon in nature (Zeegers & Müller 2014). This species was only recorded in Iraq (Leclercq 1966).

description: Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) spin in diamond is a versatile quantum sensor, being able to measure physical quantities such as magnetic field, electric field, temperature, and pressure. In the present work, we demonstrate a multiplexed sensing of magnetic field and temperature. The dual frequency driving technique we employ here is based on frequency-division multiplexing, which enables sensing both measurables in real time. The pair of NV resonance frequencies for dual frequency driving must be selected to avoid coherent population trapping of NV spin states. With an enhanced optical collection efficiency higher than 50 $\%$ and a type 1b diamond crystal with natural abundance $^{13}$C spins, we achieve sensitivities of about 70 pT/$\sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}$ and 25 $μ$K/$\sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}$ simultaneously. A high isolation factor of 34 dB in NV thermometry signal against magnetic field was obtained, and we provide a theoretical description for the isolation factor. This work paves the way for extending the application of NV quantum diamond sensors into more demanding conditions.

description: Fragrances have long been used in a variety of cultures to communicate or articulate perceptions of different types of people or personae (Classen, Howes, & Synnott; 1994); however, the meanings “articulated” by fragrances have rarely been studied through the analytical frameworks of indexicality, enregisterment, and materiality (Eckert, 2008; Johnstone, 2016; Miller, 2005; Silverstein, 2003).

To do this, I first conducted a quantitative corpus analysis of user-generated reviews of popular perfumes on the fragrance database Fragrantica to identify differences in how reviewers of “men’s” fragrances and “women’s” fragrances describe their experience with the fragrances, and what these patterns indicate about how fragrance might be used to perform gender. I then qualitatively analyzed commentary about and from “fragrance bros” to explore the olfactory, linguistic, and embodied indexes salient in the perception and performance of this prevalent enregistered persona.

This closer examination of the indexed qualities and enregistered personae co-articulated by language, smell, and embodied practices will ideally not only illuminate further the role that this sensory experience plays in our gendered performance and embodiment alongside language, but I intend to draw an analogy between the analysis of speech and smell and underline the importance of using the framework of materiality in the analysis of speech.
