description: TiO2/H2O2 mediated UV photocatalysis was studied for estimating the degradation of cypermethrin in a synthetic aqueous solution. All the experiments were performed in a laboratory scale photo-reactor under UV-A (~365 nm) irradiation. Optimisation of the process parameters was done to achieve maximum degradation of cypermethrin. The process parameters chosen for this investigation were concentration of TiO2 (0.5 to 2 g/L), concentration of H2O2 (50 to 350 mg/L) and initial pH of the reaction mixture (2 to 10). A three-level Box-behnken factorial design (BBD) in combination with Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was adopted to perform the optimisation process. Further, thermal treatment method was adopted to regenerate the TiO2 particles and their reusability was assessed. The findings of this analysis revealed that after 3 h of reaction time and at optimised conditions (i.e., concentration of TiO2 = 0.65 g/L; concentration of H2O2 = 179 mg/L and pH = 3.9), 48.30% of cypermethrin was degraded and subsequent biodegradability index, of the reaction mixture, improved from 0.55 to 0.3. Also, it was estimated that the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation processes followed Langmuir isotherm and first-order kinetics, respectively. The TiO2 particles were observed to be reusable as, after five cycles only 12.6% reduction was observed in its degradation efficiency. The findings of this study may prove beneficial for treating the pesticides’-contaminated water bodies, in the tropical countries, where sunlight is intense and pesticides are continuously entering into the water bodies from nearby agricultural fields.

description: In this study, a dispersive micro-solid-phase extraction (D-µ-SPE) technique was developed prior to flame atomic absorption spectrometric analysis of trace amounts of lead and cadmium in waters. For this purpose, a magnetized and sulphide functionalised zinc oxide nanocomposite (Fe3O4/ZnO@S NC) was effectively synthesised through sol-gel and sono-chemical methods. The surface phenomena, size, shape, elemental composition as well as electromagnetic interactions of the synthesised nanomaterials were characterised by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray-diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. Experimental parameters that can affect the adsorption and desorption of the metal ions such as pH, adsorbent dose, sample volume, eluent type, concentration and volume, shaking time and speed, and ionic strength were optimised. Under the optimum conditions, preconcentration factor of 48.2 for Pb(II) and 51.5 for Cd(II), limit of detection of 1.1 µg/L for Pb(II) and 0.4 µg/L for Cd(II), and >80% recovery values were obtained. The precision of the D-µ-SPE method was also evaluated by calculating the inter- and intra-day relative standard deviation of seven replicate measurements and <10% were obtained. Finally, the developed D-µ-SPE method was successfully applied for the determinations of lead and cadmium in different real-world water samples. Therefore, the D-µ-SPE is simple, fast and sensitive and hence, highly recommended for the enrichment of metal ions from various types of waters.

description: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of ClinicalTrials.gov-registered oncology randomized controlled trials between September 2019 and December 2021 to identify predictors of trial suspensions. The dataset included 1,183 oncology trials, of which 384 (32.5%) were suspended. COVID-19 accounted for 47 (12.2%) suspensions. Trials that were single center- or US-based had higher odds of COVID-19 (ORs: 3.85 and 2.48, 95% CIs: 1.60–11.50 and 1.28–4.93, respectively) or any-reason suspensions (ORs: 2.33 and 2.04, 95% CIs: 1.46–3.45 and 1.40–2.76, respectively). Phase two (OR 1.27), three (OR 6.45) and four trials (OR 11.5) had increased odds of COVID-19 suspensions, compared to phase one trials.

description: We investigate the performance on phoneme categorization and phoneme and word segmentation of several self-supervised learning (SSL) methods based on Contrastive Predictive Coding (CPC). Our experiments show that with the existing algorithms there is a trade off between categorization and segmentation performance. We investigate the source of this conflict and conclude that the use of context building networks, albeit necessary for superior performance on categorization tasks, harms segmentation performance by causing a temporal shift on the learned representations. Aiming to bridge this gap, we take inspiration from the leading approach on segmentation, which simultaneously models the speech signal at the frame and phoneme level, and incorporate multi-level modelling into Aligned CPC (ACPC), a variation of CPC which exhibits the best performance on categorization tasks. Our multi-level ACPC (mACPC) improves in all categorization metrics and achieves state-of-the-art performance in word segmentation.

description: The present study aimed to compare prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant PCa (csPCa) detection sensitivity between magnetic resonance imaging guided-biopsy (MRI-GB) and transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUS-GB) in patients with ≥ 1 negative TRUS-GB, and to explore the additive value of TRUS-GB to MRI-GB. The meta-analysis of 18 studies demonstrated that MRI-GB had a similar sensitivity for PCa detection but a higher sensitivity for csPCa than TRUS-GB. In conclusion, there was limited value in combining TRUS-GB with MRI-GB compared with MRI-GB alone for csPCa detection in patients with one or more negative TRUS-GBs that were suspicious of having PCa.

description: Background: Curriculum and instructional development should follow a formal process. Although the focus in formal curriculum theory is on long-term programs of study, the process is also applicable to shorter-form Learning Experiences (LEs) (single courses, lessons, or training sessions). Successful curricula and instruction support learners as they develop from entry-level performance to the minimum qualification for completing a program or course, articulated in terms of Learning Outcomes (LOs). These considerations have been encapsulated in an iterative model of curriculum and instructional design, with guidelines for its use. The Guidelines are the focus of our ISMB 2020 talk; this poster focuses on challenges and options for addressing them, when following the Guidelines, to support success of instructional opportunities.

Conclusion: The starting point in the development of formal curriculum or short form instruction is the articulation of target LOs: everything follows from these, including the selection of LEs, content, the development of assessments, and evaluation of the resulting curriculum/instruction. The iterative process can be used in curriculum and instructional development, and provide a set of practical guidelines for curriculum and course preparation. The Guidelines are an evidence-based synthesis of the literature on education science that provide concrete benefits for devising and evaluating both short- and long-form teaching. Challenges may arise when following a formal paradigm for design, but the Guidelines also offer options for meeting or overcoming the challenges while ensuring the benefits of following the Guidelines are realized.

Il nuovo Stato romeno (che includeva entro le sue frontiere consistenti nuclei di popolazione di etnia non romena) divenne un obiettivo primario del Comintern in quanto considerato uno dei cardini del nuovo ordine europeo ed espressione degli interessi di ristrette élite agrarie e finanziarie legate a doppio filo al grande capitale occidentale. Si trattava dunque di una costruzione del tutto artificiosa che proprio in nome del diritto all’autodeterminazione dei popoli della regione andava distrutta per instaurare non solo un nuovo ordine politico e sociale ma anche un nuovo modello di convivenza tra le popolazionidel sud-est dell’Europa. Inutile dire che il modello di riferimento era quello messo a punto in questi stessi anni in Unione sovietica.

description: With the enourmous popularity of large language models, many researchers have raised ethical concerns regarding social biases incorporated in such models. Several methods to measure social bias have been introduced, but apparently these methods do not necessarily agree regarding the presence or severity of bias. Furthermore, some works have shown theoretical issues or severe limitations with certain bias measures. For that reason, we introduce SAME, a novel bias score for semantic bias in embeddings. We conduct a thorough theoretical analysis as well as experiments to show its benefits compared to similar bias scores from the literature. We further highlight a substantial relation of semantic bias measured by SAME with downstream bias, a connection that has recently been argued to be negligible. Instead, we show that SAME is capable of measuring semantic bias and identify potential causes for social bias in downstream tasks.

title: La delegittimazione del discorso totalitario nel romanzo Racul di Alexandru Ivasiuc
Creators: name: Burcea, Carmen
Publisher: name: Roma Tre-Press
Year: 2013

description: Dittatura, terrore, propaganda, negazione del valore dell’individuo e del libero arbitrio sono le parole-chiave del romanzo politico Racul, uno dei più notevoli della letteratura romena post-bellica, opera del travagliato scrittore Alexandru Ivasiuc. Leggendo tra le righe, emerge la tentazione di ravvisare alcuni momenti riconducibili alle vicende biografiche dell’autore, ma anche di ricostruire, al di là di esse, l’atmosfera del regime comunista instauratosi in Romania nel secondo dopoguerra. Tanto il tema quanto la scrittura avvicinano a Alexandru Ivasiuc agli autori della celeberrima novela del dictador. Sopra un ingegnoso intreccio di realtà e immaginario, Ivasiuc proietta una parabola in cui il titolo, la struttura, l’architettura dei personaggi, lo spazio meta-geografico foggiano una rete di simboli che raffigurano un’antiutopia, svelando i meccanismi del potere totalitario. La letteratura diventa quindi una forma di delegittimazione, una critica e uno smascheramento dell’orrido volto del dittatore. Il triste vacillare dell’individuo termina con la sua metamorfosi e con il suo trapasso in un’altra dimensione, ma non prima di confidarci la sua penetrante riflessione sulla dittatura.

description: Extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) is the development trend of future wireless communications. However, the extremely large-scale antenna array could bring inevitable nearfield and dual-wideband effects that seriously reduce the transmission performance. This paper proposes an algorithmic framework to design the beam combining for the near-field wideband XL-MIMO uplink transmissions assisted by holographic metasurface antennas (HMAs). Firstly, we introduce a spherical-wave-based channel model that simultaneously takes into account both the near-field and dual-wideband effects. Based on such a model, we then formulate the HMA-based beam combining problem for the proposed XL-MIMO communications, which is challenging due to the nonlinear coupling of high dimensional HMA weights and baseband combiners. We further present a sum-mean-square-error-minimization-based algorithmic framework. Numerical results showcase that the proposed scheme can effectively alleviate the sum-rate loss caused by the near-field and dual-wideband effects in HMA-assisted XL-MIMO systems. Meanwhile, the proposed HMA-based scheme can achieve a higher sum rate than the conventional phase-shifter-based hybrid analog/digital one with the same array aperture.

title: Geographies of the meantime: temporalities of housing cooperatives in Kigali, Rwanda
Creators: name: Ndengeyingoma, Billy
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2022

description: The thesis examines the slow temporalities of urban housing development through the case of housing cooperatives. Cooperative housing development in Kigali reads as slow relative to the speed, efficiency, and performance parameters that inform the urban trajectory of Rwanda's capital city and shape the research orientation of studies of African urbanism. Drawing on nine months of qualitative fieldwork with eight cooperatives, the thesis aims to understand how cooperative members perceive the temporalities of their housing projects in an urban context mediated by speed. I propose the conceptual framework of the 'geographies of the meantime' to support the empirical reading and theorising of slower temporalities. The geographies of the meantime are concerned with the spaces and social connections built in the interim time before a specific objective, say housebuilding, is achieved. I argue that cooperative members adopt a slower pace of development to collectively negotiate their immediate and long-term aspirations, their social connections, and their interactions with public and private urban housing stakeholders. Cooperative members envisage long-term timeframes of development that rely on slowly consolidated geographies of the meantime. Housing cooperatives progressively acquire land in response to the members' aspirations for homeownership and pursuit of stability. Also, cooperative members speculate about future income-generating ventures in real estate. They lay the groundwork for these future opportunities by institutionalising their solidarity and trust through the organisational form of the cooperative. This slow pace of progress can nonetheless breed frustration and endanger the cohesion of the cooperative. Therefore, the members enact the value of patience to keep the social networks intact and ensure all members can progress at the same pace. This thesis expands the temporal boundaries of studies on African urbanism by drawing insights from slow temporalities of development. This research also contributes to debates on incremental and mutual help housing by shedding light on the socialities created through slowness.

description: In den biomedizinischen Wissenschaften hat sich die Menge des Wissens exponentiell vervielfacht. Daher ist nicht nur eine Spezialisierung, sondern vielmehr eine Subspezialisierung erforderlich. Die traditionellen Organisationsstrukturen in den deutschen Universitätskliniken sind jedoch zu zögerlich und nicht flexibel genug, um Fortschritt und Wandel anzuerkennen und Subspezialitäten entsprechend anzupassen, wie zum Beispiel im Bereich der gynäkologischen Onkologie.

However, traditional organizational structures within the German university hospitals are reluctant and not flexible enough to acknowledge progress and change and to adapt subspecialties accordingly, as for example in the field of Gynecologic Oncology.

description: Recent results show that several important graph classes can be embedded as subgraphs of strong products of simpler graphs classes (paths, small cliques, or graphs of bounded treewidth). This paper develops general techniques to bound the chromatic number (and its popular variants, such as fractional, clustered, or defective chromatic number) of the strong product of general graphs with simpler graphs classes, such as paths, and more generally graphs of bounded treewidth. We also highlight important links between the study of (fractional) clustered colouring of strong products and other topics, such as asymptotic dimension in metric theory and topology, site percolation in probability theory, and the Shannon capacity in information theory.

description: Introduction: Globally fertility rates in West Africa remain high and low fertility regions women are having children later than their mother and even more likely to utilise reproductive technologies to realise their motherhood desires now than ever. Aim: To explore the views of West African mother and daughter pairs in London regarding fertility and reproduction. Method: Qualitative research using semi-structured in-depth interviews. Ten West African mother-daughter dyads were recruited to the study using purposive and snowballing sampling technique. Results: The following themes emerged following thematic analysis: Fertility Intentions, Motherhood; Communication; Marriage and Perception of assisted reproductive technology (ART). Most mothers felt motherhood was a socio-cultural expectations and religious obligation. Lived motherhood experiences highlights the challenges migrant mothers and reflects fulfilled and unfulfilled fertility intentions. Mother-daughter communication about fertility and reproduction is limited. Most mothers had strong objections and were apprehensive about ARTs for religious reasons. Nearly all daughters felt motherhood is a conscious decision, and therefore premarital fertility and childlessness is the norm. Daughters fertility intentions suggests their willingness to postpone childbearing until they ‘find a suitable partner’, financially secure, attain education and career prospects. Most daughters felt social egg freezing enables women to ‘buy more time’ however, argues the need for accurate data on effectiveness of ARTs in managing infertility. Discussion: Findings from this study and other studies provide fascinating insights into the nature of mother-daughter relationships and upbringing within specific socio-cultural context influences; fertility intentions and fertility outcomes; perceptions on motherhood and marriage; acceptability of ARTs and health information seeking behaviour. In conclusion, migrant mothers need to be supported on how to communicate reproductive health information to their daughters. Social media presents an opportunity to engage with young women on fertility, and reproductive health issues. A socio-ecological approach of communicating information on reproductive health and new reproductive technologies for fertility management is required to educate and enable women to make informed decisions regarding their reproductive health.

description: A graph is $\mathcal{O}_k$-free if it does not contain $k$ pairwise vertex-disjoint and non-adjacent cycles. We prove that "sparse" (here, not containing large complete bipartite graphs as subgraphs) $\mathcal{O}_k$-free graphs have treewidth (even, feedback vertex set number) at most logarithmic in the number of vertices. This is optimal, as there is an infinite family of $\mathcal{O}_2$-free graphs without $K_{2,3}$ as a subgraph and whose treewidth is (at least) logarithmic.
 Using our result, we show that Maximum Independent Set and 3-Coloring in $\mathcal{O}_k$-free graphs can be solved in quasi-polynomial time. Other consequences include that most of the central NP-complete problems (such as Maximum Independent Set, Minimum Vertex Cover, Minimum Dominating Set, Minimum Coloring) can be solved in polynomial time in sparse $\mathcal{O}_k$-free graphs, and that deciding the $\mathcal{O}_k$-freeness of sparse graphs is polynomial time solvable.

description: El proyecto, englobado dentro del área de conocimiento de la energía eléctrica y energética, desarrolla modelos de caracterización a corto plazo de la evolución térmico-energética en edificios a partir del análisis del efecto que tienen tanto las variables climatológicas exteriores como la presencia de ocupantes en la evolución térmica del interior de edificios. Concretamente, se desarrollan modelos ARX lineales para la predicción de la temperatura interior.
 Para el desarrollo del trabajo se ha empleado la información real aportada por la National University of Singapore correspondiente a un conjunto de datos que cuenta con información de diversas variables para 5 espacios de uno de los edificios del campus de la universidad.
 Las novedades en la aproximación de este trabajo están relacionadas con el uso de la variable de ocupación, la consideración de no linealidades en un ARX lineal y el mayor rigor en la consideración las métricas de error.
 Predecir la evolución térmico-energética en interior de edificios permite, en un siguiente paso que queda fuera del alcance de este proyecto, modelar el control de edificios con el fin incrementar la eficiencia energética.
 Se consiguen desarrollar modelos que predicen la temperatura interior con valores de R2 superiores a 0,99, MAE cercanos a 0,137°C y asegurando que con un 95% de confianza, el valor de predicción se sitúa, como mucho, 0,404°C grados por encima o 0,402°C por debajo de la medición. Además, se observa la importancia de la ubicación y geometría del edificio para el análisis de la radiación solar.

description: For any hereditary graph class $F$, we construct optimal adjacency labeling schemes for the classes of subgraphs and induced subgraphs of Cartesian products of graphs in $F$. As a consequence, we show that, if $F$ admits efficient adjacency labels (or, equivalently, small induced-universal graphs) meeting the information-theoretic minimum, then the classes of subgraphs and induced subgraphs of Cartesian products of graphs in $F$ do too. Our proof uses ideas from randomized communication complexity, hashing, and additive combinatorics, and improves upon recent results of Chepoi, Labourel, and Ratel [Journal of Graph Theory, 2020].

Die Kodierung von Emotionen in Ogawa Yōkos Werken und deren affektives und gefühlsbezogenes Wirkungspotential
Creators: name: Giannoulis, Elena
Publisher: name: Bunron – Zeitschrift für literaturwissenschaftliche Japanforschung

description: The present article investigates in what way emotions are encoded in the works of Ogawa Yōko and reveals how their affective and feeling-oriented impact potential unfolds. It argues that emotions predominantly occur in their pre-reflective form, i.e. as affects that are expressed by sensory narration. The study demonstrates that protagonists cannot verbalize and thematize reflected forms of emotions, i.e. feelings, or they stop at the affective level, primarily at the perception of physiological reactions. Sensory narration is embedded in the fairytale-like and yet uncanny-seeming basic mood that characterizes Ogawa’s literature. This mood is largely generated by sequences that will be defined in the present article as a mood tableau. After clarifying the issue of the production process and quality of mood in the text and the textual encoding of emotions (affects and feelings), text-based and empirical approaches from literary studies will be incorporated as an outlook on future research on this topic. The hypothesis is that due to the sensory and affective narration style, readers subconsciously shift to an affective perception mode, which subsequently turns into a feeling-oriented mode. This is because, in contrast to the characters, the reader cannot stop at the affective level and cognitively steps in for the protagonists, i.e. the reader reflects on the affective during the reading process and is moved by the feeling that the protagonist lacks; he fills the psychological void in the text. The affect–reaction model introduced here can also be applied to the works of other authors and, by its symbiosis of text-based and empirical approaches, has great potential for the affective sciences within literary studies.

Evaluating Approximate Flavor Instability Metrics in Neutron Star Mergers

description: Neutrinos can rapidly change flavor in the inner dense regions of core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers due to the neutrino fast flavor instability. If the amount of flavor transformation is significant, the FFI could significantly affect how supernovae explode and how supernovae and mergers enrich the universe with heavy elements. Since many state of the art supernova and merger simulations rely on neutrino transport algorithms based on angular moments of the radiation field, there is incomplete information with which to determine if the distributions are unstable to the FFI. In this work we test the performance of several proposed moment-based instability tests in the literature. We perform time-independent general relativistic neutrino transport on a snapshot of a 3D neutron star merger simulation to generate reasonable neutrino distributions and check where each of these criteria correctly predict instability. In addition, we offer a new ``maximum entropy'' instability test that is somewhat more complex, but offers more detailed (though still approximate) estimates of ELN crossing width and depth. We find that this maximum entropy test and the resonant trajectory test are particularly accurate at predicting instability in this snapshot, though all tests predict instability where significant flavor transformation is most likely.

description: We consider a linear symmetric operator in a Hilbert space that is neither bounded from above nor from below, admits a block decomposition corresponding to an orthogonal splitting of the Hilbert space and has a variational gap property associated with the block decomposition. A typical example is the Dirac-Coulomb operator defined on $C^\infty_c(\mathbb R^3\setminus\{0\}, \mathbb C^4)$. In this paper we define a distinguished self-adjoint extension with a spectral gap and characterize its eigenvalues in that gap by a min-max principle. This has been done in the past under technical conditions. Here we use a different, geometric strategy, to achieve that goal by making only minimal assumptions. Our result applied to the Dirac-Coulomb-like Hamitonians covers sign-changing potentials as well as molecules with an arbitrary number of nuclei having atomic numbers less than or equal to 137.
