description: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a prominent health problem. Progressive CKD leads to impaired kidney function with decreased ability to filter the patients’ blood, concluding in multiple complications, like heart disease and ultimately death from the disease. In previous work, we developed a prototype to support nephrologists in gaining an overview of their CKD patients. The prototype visualizes the patients in cohorts according to their pairwise similarity. The user can interactively modify the similarity by changing the underlying weights of the included features. The work in this paper expands upon this previous work by the enlargement of the data set and the user interface of the application. With a focus on the distinction between individual CKD classes we introduce a color scheme used throughout all visualization. Furthermore, the visualizations were adopted to display the data of several patients at once. This also involved the option to align the visualizations to sentinel points, such as the onset of a particular CKD stage, in order to quantify the progression of all selected patients in relation to this event. The prototype was developed in response to the identified potential for improvement of the earlier application. An additional user study concerning the intuitiveness and usability confirms good results for the prototype and leads to the assessment of an easy-to-use approach.
Domain wall dynamics in a two-component Bose-Mott insulator

description: We model the dynamics of two species of bosonic atoms trapped in an optical lattice within the Mott regime by mapping the system onto a spin model. A field gradient breaks the cloud into two domains. We study how the domain wall evolves under adiabatic and diabatic changes of this gradient. We determine the timescales for adiabaticity, and study how temperature evolves for slow ramps. We show that after large, sudden changes of the field gradient, the system does not equilibrate on typical experimental timescales. We find interesting spin dynamics even when the initial temperature is large compared to the super-exchange energy. We discuss the implication of our results for experiments wishing to use such a two-component system for thermometry, or as part of a cooling scheme.

description: Recent searches by unbiased, wide-field surveys have uncovered a group of extremely luminous optical transients. The initial discoveries of SN 2005ap by the Texas Supernova Search and SCP-06F6 in a deep Hubble pencil beam survey were followed by the Palomar Transient Factory confirmation of host redshifts for other similar transients. The transients share the common properties of high optical luminosities (peak magnitudes ~ -21 to -23), blue colors, and a lack of H or He spectral features. The physical mechanism that produces the luminosity is uncertain, with suggestions ranging from jet-driven explosion to pulsational pair-instability. Here we report the most detailed photometric and spectral coverage of an ultra-bright transient (SN 2010gx) detected in the Pan-STARRS 1 sky survey. In common with other transients in this family, early-time spectra show a blue continuum, and prominent broad absorption lines of O II. However, about 25d after discovery, the spectra developed type Ic supernova features, showing the characteristic broad Fe II and Si II absorption lines. Detailed, post-maximum follow-up may show that all SN 2005ap and SCP-06F6 type transients are linked to supernovae Ic. This poses problems in understanding the physics of the explosions: there is no indication from late-time photometry that the luminosity is powered by 56Ni, the broad lightcurves suggest very large ejected masses, and the slow spectral evolution is quite different from typical Ic timescales. The nature of the progenitor stars and the origin of the luminosity are intriguing and open questions.

description: Isophotal analysis of M87, using data from the Advanced Camera for Surveys, reveals a projected displacement of 6.8 +/- 0.8 pc (~ 0.1 arcsec) between the nuclear point source (presumed to be the location of the supermassive black hole, SMBH) and the photo-center of the galaxy. The displacement is along a position angle of 307 +/- 17 degrees and is consistent with the jet axis. This suggests the active SMBH in M87 does not currently reside at the galaxy center of mass, but is displaced in the counter-jet direction. Possible explanations for the displacement include orbital motion of an SMBH binary, gravitational perturbations due to massive objects (e.g., globular clusters), acceleration by an asymmetric or intrinsically one-sided jet, and gravitational recoil resulting from the coalescence of an SMBH binary. The displacement direction favors the latter two mechanisms. However, jet asymmetry is only viable, at the observed accretion rate, for a jet age of >0.1 Gyr and if the galaxy restoring force is negligible. This could be the case in the low density core of M87. A moderate recoil ~1 Myr ago might explain the disturbed nature of the nuclear gas disk, could be aligned with the jet axis, and can produce the observed offset. Alternatively, the displacement could be due to residual oscillations resulting from a large recoil that occurred in the aftermath of a major merger any time in the last 1 Gyr.

description: Optical continuous-variable cluster states (CVCSs) in combination with Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill~(GKP) qubits enable fault-tolerant quantum computation so long as these resources are of high enough quality. Previous studies concluded that a particular CVCS, the quad rail lattice~(QRL), exhibits lower GKP gate-error rate than others do. We show in this work that many other experimentally accessible CVCSs also achieve this level of performance by identifying operational equivalences to the QRL. Under this equivalence, the GKP Clifford gate set for each CVCS maps straightforwardly from that of the QRL, inheriting its noise properties. Furthermore, each cluster state has at its heart a balanced four-splitter -- the four-mode extension to a balanced beam splitter. We classify all four-splitters, show they form a single equivalence class under SWAP and parity operators, and we give a construction of any four-splitter with linear optics, thus extending the toolbox for theoretical and experimental cluster-state design and analysis.

description: In sonic models of special relativity, the fact that the sonic medium violates (ordinary) Lorentz symmetry is apparent to observers external to the sonic medium but not to a class of observers existing within the medium itself. We show that the situation is symmetric: internal observers will judge physics in the external laboratory to violate their own sonic Lorentz symmetries. We therefore treat all observers on an equal footing such that each is able to retain a commitment to their own Lorentz symmetries. We then generalize beyond the case of subsystem-environment decompositions to situations in which there exist multiple phonon fields, all obeying Lorentz symmetries but with different invariant speeds. In such cases, we argue that all observers have freedom to choose which field is symmetry preserving, and so -- in a certain precise sense -- which other fields are perceived as having an 'ether.' This choice is influenced -- but not determined -- by a desire for simplicity in the description of physical laws. Sending information faster than sound serves as a model of tachyonic signalling to a distant receiver. Immutable causality of the laboratory setup when perceived externally to a sonic medium manifests internally through the confinement of the tachyons to an apparent ether (with a rest frame), which we call a 'tachyonic medium,' thereby preventing tachyonic exchange from emulating the scenario of a round-trip signal travelling into an observer's past causal cone. The assignment of sonic-Lorentz-violating effects to fields that obey 'photonic' Lorentz symmetries thus ensures that causality associated with the 'sonic' Lorentz symmetries is preserved.

Differential Validity and Utility of Successive and Simultaneous Approaches to the Development of Equivalent Achievement Tests in French and English

description: Described in this article are the first three activities of a research program designed to assess the differential validity and utility of successive and simultaneous approaches to the development of equivalent achievement tests in the French and English languages. Two teams of multilingual/multicultural French-English teachers used the simultaneous approach to develop 70 items respectively for mathematics and social studies at the grade 9 level. The evidence gained from the pilot study suggests that the issue of differential item performance attributable to translation differences appears to be confounded by the presence of socioeconomic differences between the two groups of students. Consequently, the next activities of this research will be directed toward disentangling these two issues to obtain a clearer view of the efficacy of the simultaneous method in reducing differential group performance and enhancing linguistic and cultural decentering.

The Effects of Examinee Motivation on Multiple-Choice Item Parameter Estimates

Publisher: name: Alberta Journal of Educational Research
Year: 2003

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of false assumption regarding the motivation of examinees on item calibration and test construction. A simulation study was conducted using data generated using two models of item responses (the 3-parameter logistic item response model alone, and in combination with Wise's Examinee Persistence model (1996a)). Items were calibrated using a Bayesian method. Results clearly document the effect of low motivation on item parameter estimates. For the conditions studied, the item parameter estimates based on responses from poorly motivated examinees were biased and more variable than estimates based on responses from examinees who behaved according to the three-parameter logistic model.

description: We report on the design and implementation of a rotating sample magnetometer (RSM) operating in the variable temperature insert of a cryostat equipped with a high-field magnet. The limited space and the cryogenic temperatures impose the most critical design parameters: the small bore size of the magnet requires a very compact pick-up coil system and the low temperatures demand a very careful design of the bearings. Despite these difficulties the RSM achieves excellent resolution at high magnetic field sweep rates, exceeding that of a typical vibrating sample magnetometer by about a factor of ten. In addition the gas-flow cryostat and the high-field superconducting magnet provide a temperature and magnetic field range unprecedented for this type of magnetometer.

description: This article extends recent research on item parameter drift by investigating the robustness properties of basic unidimensional IRT models. Specifically, the article explores whether it is possible to advocate the consistent choice of one model over another based on its robustness properties under drift. On the one hand, it is shown that the biases that are introduced due to drift are minor for most practically relevant circumstances across all models. On the other hand, it is shown that the mathematical structure of the biases is theoretically complex so that globally superior performance of one model over another is observed only under restrictive side conditions.

description: What if reality is not composed of things, but of loops? The Fractal Recursive Loop Theory of the
Universe (FRLTU) proposes a process-first ontology in which recursion—not matter, mind, information,
or even causality—is the fundamental engine of existence. Unlike traditional metaphysical frameworks that
require a first cause or ungrounded substance, FRLTU begins with recursion precisely because it is the only
known process that explains itself without appealing to an external origin. Causality, when pushed to its
limit, demands a privileged beginning—an ontological dead-end. Recursion, by contrast, loops back on
itself, offering continuity, self-generation, and internal coherence.

description: Il numero di infortuni nel comparto edilizia, ottenuto con l’ausilio dei Flussi Informativi INAIL-Regioni, risulta esser sempre molto alto nonostante l’erogazione di norme sempre più dettagliate e corsi di formazione obbligatoria specifici. Le cause più frequenti di infortuni mortali in questo settore, secondo i dati raccolti dal Sistema di sorveglianza Inail “Informo DW”, risultano essere caduta dall’alto o in profondità dell’infortunato (62,3%) e caduta dall’alto dei gravi (19,9%). Questi dati fanno pensare che, oltre ad una carenza di protezioni e accorgimenti preventivi, vi è un basso senso del pericolo in questi lavoratori che svolgono attività in situazioni particolarmente rischiose. Obbiettivo: Sensibilizzare, gli operai di cantiere, alla sicurezza sul lavoro attraverso la sperimentazione di una strategia immediata e d’impatto come quella dei Point of Decision Prompts, considerata la sua verificata efficacia in altri ambiti di promozione alla salute. Materiali e metodi: Sono stati reperiti in rete, in particolare dall’archivio “Ads of the world”, quattro manifesti di campagne sulla sicurezza sul lavoro già esistenti dal tono comunicativo diverso. Questi sono stati utilizzati nelle prime interviste ai lavoratori per individuare l’impatto cognitivo ed emotivo suscitato dai diversi stili comunicativi. Il 75% dei lavoratori ha dichiarato di essersi sentito più attratto dall’immagine realistica e la stessa percentuale si è rivelata anche maggiormente stimolata dallo stile paternalistico. Sulla base delle risposte, sono state realizzati dei manifesti ad hoc, oggetto di sperimentazione della strategia. L’intervento ha coinvolto quattro cantieri campione presenti nel territorio piemontese. Per valutare l’efficacia e l’impatto di questi poster sui lavoratori del comparto edile, sono state svolte delle interviste valutative basate su quesiti formulati in riferimento al Modello di McGuire.

Monte Carlo modelling of peripheral dose and risk of secondary malignancy in flattening-filter-free and 10 MV photon beams for paediatric radiotherapy
Creators: name: Ben Bouchta, Youssef
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: One of the most serious late side effects of cancer treatments is the development of a second malignant neoplasm (SMN). While the risk of SMN is influenced by many factors, radiation therapy (RT) during childhood and adolescence has been shown to be one of the most significant factors associated with the development of a second cancer. The work presented in this thesis determines how to lower the risk of RT-induced SMN without affecting the quality and efficacy of RT treatments. To properly assess dose to the entire body in patients, a Monte Carlo and measurements based model was developed. This model was used to determine the dose delivered to a cohort of paediatric patients by three different photon radiotherapy treatment modes: 6MV flattened, 6MV flattening-filter-free (FFF) and 10MV FFF. To establish the clinical significance of the dose difference between the three modes, the risk of SMN as calculated by four different risk models was assessed for whole lung irradiation (WLI). The mixed Monte Carlo and measurements model was found to be accurate. The uncertainty in the dose was found to be below 9.4 % of the local dose. A comparison of the out-of-field dose delivered by the 6MV FFF and 10MV FFF beams relative to the 6MV flattened beam was presented. The data demonstrated dose reductions of 3.9% (95% CI[2.1, 5.7]) and 9.8% (95% CI[8.0, 11.6]) at 5 cm from the planning treatment volume (PTV) and 21.9% (95% CI[13.7, 30.1]) and 25.6% ( 95% CI[17.6, 33.6]) at 30 cm for 6MV FFF and 10 MV FFF beams respectively compared to the 6MV flattened beam. In paediatric patients who were treated with WLI, this dose reduction led to a reduction in the estimated risk of RT-induced thyroid cancers. This reduction corresponds to risk ratio for radiation-induced thyroid cancer of <0.90 and <0.95 for 10 MV FFF and 6MV FFF respectively compared to the 6MV flattened beam. In conclusion, the work presented in this thesis provides evidence that FFF beams, specifically 10MV FFF beams, deliver lower out-of-field dose than 6MV flattened beams and lead to a lower risk of second malignancies.

description: Aims. We determine the physical properties (spin state and shape) of asteroid (21) Lutetia, target of the ESA Rosetta mission, to help in preparing for observations during the flyby on 2010 July 10 by predicting the orientation of Lutetia as seen from Rosetta. Methods. We use our novel KOALA inversion algorithm to determine the physical properties of asteroids from a combination of optical lightcurves, disk-resolved images, and stellar occultations, although the latter are not available for (21) Lutetia. Results. We find the spin axis of (21) Lutetia to lie within 5 degrees of (λ = 52 deg., β = -6 deg.) in Ecliptic J2000 reference frame (equatorial α = 52 deg., δ = +12 deg.), and determine an improved sidereal period of 8.168 270 \pm 0.000 001 h. This pole solution implies the southern hemisphere of Lutetia will be in "seasonal" shadow at the time of the flyby. The apparent cross-section of Lutetia is triangular as seen "pole-on" and more rectangular as seen "equator-on". The best-fit model suggests the presence of several concavities. The largest of these is close to the north pole and may be associated with large impacts.

The Jackknife and Multilevel Modeling: A New Application of an Old Trick
Creators: name: Wolfe, Richard G.

Publisher: name: Alberta Journal of Educational Research
Year: 2003

description: In this article the authors demonstrate two instances where the jackknife can be used to enhance hierarchical linear model (HLM) analyses. The jackknife was used to improve the HLM estimates of composite measures by jackknifing over items. The first study examined fixed-effects and variance component estimation. The jackknife appeared to reduce the bias in the estimates both of slopes and of variances by implicitly adjusting for item-by-person and item-by-group interactions. The second study examined the utility of the jackknife as a multilevel item analysis tool. The results suggest that pseudovalues offer a unique opportunity for isolating item variability in multilevel data. The jackknife seems to offer enhancements and insights to conventional HLM analyses.

description: The Selex experiment measured several billion charged hadron tracks with a high precision magnetic momentum spectrometer and high precision RICH velocity spectrometer. We have analyzed these data to simultaneously measure the masses of all the long lived charged hadrons and anti-hadrons from the pi to the Omega using the same detector and technique. The statistical precision achievable with this data sample is more than adequate for 0.1% mass measurements We have used these measurements to develop and understand the systematic effects of a RICH as a precision velocity spectrometer with the goal of measuring 10 masses with precision ranging from 100 KeV for the lightest to 1000 KeV for the heaviest. This requires controlling the radius measurement of RICH rings to the ~10^{-4} level. Progress in the mass measurements and the required RICH analysis techniques developed are discussed.

description: It is an established matter that the total information in multivariate data is defined as the sum of eigenvalues of the variance-covariance matrix. In this article I challenge this time-honored tradition and look at another definition of the total information in data from a dual scaling perspective. This proposal is a step toward unifying the concept of information for both discrete and continuous variables.

description: We study the large deviations principle for locally periodic stochastic differential equations with small noise and fast oscillating coefficients. There are three possible regimes depending on how fast the intensity of the noise goes to zero relative to the homogenization parameter. We use weak convergence methods which provide convenient representations for the action functional for all three regimes. Along the way we study weak limits of related controlled SDEs with fast oscillating coefficients and derive, in some cases, a control that nearly achieves the large deviations lower bound at the prelimit level. This control is useful for designing efficient importance sampling schemes for multiscale diffusions driven by small noise.
Implementazione di tecniche evolute di indagine per la gestione di aspetti di Salute in ambienti lavorativi con sospetta presenza di materiali contenenti amianto

description: La presenza residuale di componenti critici (come i Materiali Contenenti Amianto - MCA) rappresenta ancora oggi una delle principali criticità per la Sicurezza e la Salute dei lavoratori e dei fruitori di molte strutture, tra cui le grandi strutture accessibili al pubblico. Il primo passo per una efficace Valutazione e Gestione del rischio è chiaramente una rigorosa definizione dei diversi approcci che occorre adottare, in conformità con le normative italiane generali e speciali di sicurezza e salute, a partire da scenari in cui l'assenza di MCA può essere dimostrata, e via via nelle varie condizioni in cui si presenta il Fattore di pericolo, da dormiente, ad armato, ad attivo. Un progetto di ricerca, incoraggiato sin dal 2008 dal Politecnico di Torino e dall'Università degli Studi di Torino, ha portato alla stesura di una Linea Guida per la sicurezza sul lavoro nelle Università e grandi strutture pubbliche, e delle sue sotto-fasi, messe a punto per fornire efficaci metodologie di approccio a varie criticità specifiche. Sia la Linea Guida, sia le sotto-parti sono state sistematicamente validate attraverso estesi test sul campo prima della approvazione e diffusione. Il presente lavoro riferisce sui risultati dell’applicazione, su casi reali, dell’approccio basato su metodiche di Ingegneria Forense (Canvassing), di uso generale ma particolarmente adatta alla problematica in oggetto, in combinazione con l'Analisi di Immagine, che mostrano un contributo efficace nella Valutazione del rischio e nella Gestione in qualità della sicurezza e salute. Tale approccio, inoltre, contribuisce in modo sostanziale alla transizione da metodiche ancora condizionate dal giudizio soggettivo di un osservatore umano, o dall’affidarsi a tecniche non sempre sufficientemente efficaci, verso metodi più coerenti con l'evoluzione dei sistemi produttivi fondati su controlli diretti e da remoto, con elevati livelli di digitalizzazione e automazione

Applying the Breslow-Day Test of Trend in Odds Ratio Heterogeneity to the Analysis of Nonuniform DIF
Creators: name: Penfield, Randall D.
Publisher: name: Alberta Journal of Educational Research
Year: 2003

description: This article applies the Breslow-Day test of trend in odds ratio heterogeneity (BD) to the detection of nonuniform DIF. A simulation study was conducted to assess the power and Type I error rate of BD, as well as a combined decision rule (CDR) whereby a decision of the existence of DIF was based on a combination of the decisions made using BD and the Mantel-Haenszel chi-square. The results indicated that CDR displayed good Type I error rate and power across a variety of conditions. Comparing these results with those of earlier research indicates that CDR may yield more accurate decisions about DIF than other commonly used DIF detection procedures.
