title: Analysis of target-derived factors regulating axon guidance in the visual system of Drosophila.
Creators: name: Bazigou, Eleni
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2006

description: The developing visual system of Drosophila is characterized by complex and stereotyped patterns of neuronal connections. The Drosophila compound eye consists of approximately 800 ommatidia, each containing 8 photoreceptor cells (R-cells, R1-R8). Each of these R-cell groups have distinct spectral sensitivity and target specificity. Rl-R6 axons terminate in the first optic ganglion called the lamina, inbetween two rows of glial cells, the epithelial and marginal glia, whereas R7 and R8 axons project through the lamina and terminate in the second optic ganglion, the medulla.

 Previous studies have demonstrated that epithelial and marginal glia regulate target layer selection of R1-R6 in the lamina. To systematically address the molecular mechanisms through which glial cells as well as target neurons guide R-cell axons to establish initial projection pattern, the lab devised an FLP/FRT system-based genetic approach (ELF system) to generate somatic clones specifically in target cells. Using ELF in a large-scale mutagenesis screen for the left arm of the second chromosome, we isolated mutant candidates with R-cell projection defects caused by genes required in the target.

In a candidate approach, the role of the Drosophila homolog of the receptor tyrosine kinase Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (Aik) and its activating ligand Jelly belly (Jeb), known for their role in the development of the Drosophila visceral mesoderm, was addressed in our system. Aik and Jeb show a highly dynamic and initially complementary expression pattern in the target and in R-cells, respectively. Loss of Aik from the target and jeb from the eye has revealed common target specificity defects of R1-R6 axons in the lamina and R8 axons in the medulla during the refinement of axonal projections in the optic lobe. This novel anterograde signaling system in the Drosophila visual system may be regulating R1-R6 and R8 target specificity by controling the modulation of one or more axon guidance cues present in the target.

description: We study the Lovasz number theta along with two further SDP relaxations theta1, theta1/2 of the independence number and the corresponding relaxations of the chromatic number on random graphs G(n,p). We prove that these relaxations are concentrated about their means Moreover, extending a result of Juhasz, we compute the asymptotic value of the relaxations for essentially the entire range of edge probabilities p. As an application, we give an improved algorithm for approximating the independence number in polynomial expected time, thereby extending a result of Krivelevich and Vu. We also improve on the analysis of an algorithm of Krivelevich for deciding whether G(n,p) is k-colorable.

description: Moire engineering as a configuration method to twist van der Waals materials has delivered a series of advances in electronics, magnetics and optics. Yet these advances stem from peculiar moire superlattices which form at small specific twisting angles. Here we report the configuration of nanoscale light-matter waves-the polaritons-by twisting stacked $α$-phase molybdenum trioxide $α$-MoO3 slabs in the broad range of 0$^o$ to 90$^o$. Our combined experimental and theoretical results reveal a variety of polariton wavefront geometry and topological transitions via the twisting. The polariton twisting configuration is attributed to the electromagnetic interaction of highly anisotropic hyperbolic polaritons in stacked $α$-MoO3 slabs. The nano-polaritons demonstrated in twisted $α$-MoO3 hold the promise as tailored nano-light for on-demand nanophotonic functionalities.

description: Aluminum and other metal abundances were determined in 21 red giants in the globular clusters NGC 6752 and M80 as part of a larger study to determine whether the aluminum distribution on the red giant branch is related to the second parameter effect that causes clusters of similar metallicity to display different horizontal branch morphologies. The observations were obtained of the Al I lines near 6700 Angstroms with the CTIO Blanco 4-m telescope and Hydra multi-object spectrograph. The spectra have a resolving power of 18000 or 9400, with typical S/N ratios of 100-200. Mean [Fe/H] values obtained from the spectra are -1.58 for NGC 6752 and -1.73 for M80; this represents the first spectroscopic iron abundance determination for M80. Both NGC 6752 and M80 display a spread in aluminum abundance, with mean [Al/Fe] ratios of +0.51 and +0.37, respectively. No trend in the variation of the mean Al abundance with position on the giant branch is discernible in either cluster with our small sample.

description: User generated text on social media often suffers from a lot of undesired characteristics including hatespeech, abusive language, insults etc. that are targeted to attack or abuse a specific group of people. Often such text is written differently compared to traditional text such as news involving either explicit mention of abusive words, obfuscated words and typological errors or implicit abuse i.e., indicating or targeting negative stereotypes. Thus, processing this text poses several robustness challenges when we apply natural language processing techniques developed for traditional text. For example, using word or token based models to process such text can treat two spelling variants of a word as two different words. Following recent work, we analyze how character, subword and byte pair encoding (BPE) models can be aid some of the challenges posed by user generated text. In our work, we analyze the effectiveness of each of the above techniques, compare and contrast various word decomposition techniques when used in combination with others. We experiment with finetuning large pretrained language models, and demonstrate their robustness to domain shift by studying Wikipedia attack, toxicity and Twitter hatespeech datasets

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Forecasting of renewable energy generation is a mature R&D area, also with a lot of operational experience and commercial offering. As the share of renewable energy generation in the energy mix increases, in parallel to a liberalization of electricity markets, new needs for forecasting have appeared. Throughout the last few decades, emphasis was placed on deterministic and probabilistic forecasting, extremes, ramps, etc. As of today, we argue that new developments and proposals for forecast products should happen within a problem-oriented approach: there, forecast products are at the interface between forecasters and forecast users, and driven by the decision problem at hand. In this report, we review the current evolution in market, operations, etc. that call for new forecast products. We also look at new views coming from the R&D side, with the aim to introduce new forecast products and show their interest for forecast users. Eventually, we argue that, beyond forecast products only, there are also a number of new business models of relevance being developed, e.g. related to collaborative analytics and data markets.

From the similarities of the spectra (width/shift of absorption lines) with these of Na on $^4$He droplets, we conclude that sodium atoms reside in a ``dimple'' on the droplet surface. The experimental results are supported by Density Functional calculations at zero temperature, which confirm the surface location of sodium on $^3$He droplets, and provide a microscopic description of the ``dimple'' structure.

description: Web Application Firewalls are widely used in production environments to mitigate security threats like SQL injections. Many industrial products rely on signature-based techniques, but machine learning approaches are becoming more and more popular. The main goal of an adversary is to craft semantically malicious payloads to bypass the syntactic analysis performed by a WAF. In this paper, we present WAF-A-MoLE, a tool that models the presence of an adversary. This tool leverages on a set of mutation operators that alter the syntax of a payload without affecting the original semantics. We evaluate the performance of the tool against existing WAFs, that we trained using our publicly available SQL query dataset. We show that WAF-A-MoLE bypasses all the considered machine learning based WAFs.

description: Low throughput has been the biggest obstacle of large-scale blockchain applications. During the past few years, researchers have proposed various schemes to improve the systems' throughput. However, due to the inherent inefficiency and defects of the Internet, especially in data broadcasting tasks, these efforts all rendered unsatisfactory. In this paper, we propose a novel blockchain protocol which utilizes the satellite broadcasting network instead of the traditional Internet for data broadcasting and consensus tasks. An automatic resumption mechanism is also proposed to solve the unique communication problems of satellite broadcasting. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has a lower communication cost and can greatly improve the throughput of the blockchain system. Theoretical estimation of a satellite broadcasting enabled blockchain system's throughput is 6,000,000 TPS with a 20 gbps satellite bandwidth.

description: Mining projects needs application of modelling and simulation techniques. Modelling and simulation can help in a better and more scientific decision making, as compared to the trial and error based managerial decisions, which often results in inefficient utilization of resources. Simulation can be applied to material handling operations using trucks and shovels, which is an integral part of surface mining operations (including quarry, open pit and open cast mining). This thesis is related to application of modelling and simulation for optimal fleet selection and resource utilization in cement quarry operations using Simio®. Materials extracted from quarry or open pit and open cast mines are often handled with conventional system of trucks and shovels, which typically constitutes 50-55% of total cost of mining operations [3]. Hence, optimal utilization of trucks and shovels is one of the goals in cement quarry operations. Cement quarry operations at Cherat Cement Company, a leading cement manufacturing unit in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan, are taken as a case study for modelling and simulation of truck-shovel operations. Data relating truckshovel operations at the quarry includes; haul roads, working benches, crushers and its capacities, truck and shovel fleets, traveling, loading and cycle times etc.. Simio®, a software package for simulation, is used. Various scenarios were analyzed by varying the size and number of trucks and shovels, location of shovels and number of working benches, for determining the optimal combination of trucks and shovels. The objective was achieved successfully i.e. fulfilling the material requirements using a maximal utilization and minimal number of trucks and shovels.
A comprehensive weighted evolving network model

Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)

description: Many social, technological, biological, and economical systems are best described by weighted networks, whose properties and dynamics depend not only on their structures but also on the connection weights among their nodes. However, most existing research work on complex network models are concentrated on network structures, with connection weights among their nodes being either 1 or 0. In this paper, we propose a new weighted evolving network model. Numerical simulations indicate that this network model yields three power-law distributions of the node degrees, connection weights and node strengths. Particularly, some other properties of the distributions, such as the droop-head and heavy-tail effects, can also be reflected by this model.

We separate out the contributions of global phase space shrinkage and local phase space contraction and expansion to the uncertainty in predicting and postdicting the state of the system. Thus, we determine how the amplification parameter, the time lag, and the resolution influence the possibility for communication. A novel representation for real numbers is introduced that allows for a visualization of the flow of information between scales.

description: This research article presents a comparison between the quality parameters and requirements imposed by national standards for royal jelly in Egypt and some countries compared with the international standards for RJ which was recently issued in 2016 by the international organization for standardization (ISO 12824:2016). We also investigated the chemical composition and quality parameters of Egyptian royal jelly samples (n=9) which was produced and analyzed during different honey flow seasons. This article aims to highlight the differences between national and international standards for Royal jelly, and shows the necessity to update the national dated standards, states and suggests the adoption of some modern methods for determining authenticity, origin and freshness, which are applicable, cheap, fast and reliable.

description: In recent years, the topic of land prices has received considerable attention in the literature [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, 18]. Part of the interest stems from the importance of land as a factor of production in agriculture. Land prices have a direct influence on the ability of young farmers to operate and expand their operations. Thus, the interest in land· prices by farmers, bankers and input suppliers is easily understood.
N-representability of two-electron densities and density matrices and the application to the few-body problem

description: We have found a (dense) basis for the N-representable, two-electron densities, in which all N-representable two-electron densities can be expanded, using positive coefficients. The inverse problem of finding a representative wavefunction, giving a prescribed two-electron density, has also been solved. The two-electron densities are found to lie in a convex set in a vector space. We show that density matrices are more complicated objects than densities, and density matrices do not seem to lie in a convex set. An algorithm to compute the ground-state energy of a few-particle system is proposed, based on the obtained results, where the correlation is treated exactly.

description: The value of floodplain lands in agricultural use following channelization and the resulting foregone value of these lands were estimated. The latter estimates were incomplete because of the inability to predict effects on potentially important parameters. Estimated differences provide a threshold for decision-making. Policy implications are discussed.

description: With bolometric luminosities exceeding $10^{48}$ erg s$^{-1}$, powerful jets and supermassive black holes at their center, MeV blazars are some of the most extreme sources in the Universe. Recently, the Fermi-Large Area Telescope detected five new $γ$-ray emitting MeV blazars beyond redshift $z=3.1$. With the goal of precisely characterizing the jet properties of these extreme sources, we started a multiwavelength campaign to follow them up with joint NuSTAR, Swift and SARA observations. We observe six high-redshift quasars, four of them belonging to the new $γ$-ray emitting MeV blazars. Thorough X-ray analysis reveals spectral flattening at soft X-ray for three of these objects. The source NVSS J151002$+$570243 also shows a peculiar re-hardening of the X-ray spectrum at energies $E>6\,\rm keV$. Adopting a one-zone leptonic emission model, this combination of hard X-rays and $γ$-rays enables us to determine the location of the Inverse Compton peak and to accurately constrain the jet characteristics. In the context of the jet-accretion disk connection, we find that all six sources have jet powers exceeding accretion disk luminosity, seemingly validating this positive correlation even beyond $z>3$. Our six sources are found to have $10^9 \rm M_{\odot}$ black holes, further raising the space density of supermassive black holes in the redshift bin $z=[3,4]$.

description: The cross section for $Θ^+$ production from the reaction $γp\toπ^+K^-Θ^+$, which was observed in the CLAS experiment at the Jefferson National Laboratory, is evaluated in a hadronic model that includes couplings of $Θ^+$ to both $KN$ and $K^*N$. With their coupling constants determined from the empirical $πNN(1710)$ and $ρNN(1710)$ coupling constants using the SU(3) symmetry, the cross section for this reaction has been evaluated by taking $Θ^+$ to have spin 1/2 and isospin 0 but either positive or negative parity. We find that the cross section is 10-15 nb if $Θ^+$ has positive parity as predicted by the chiral soliton model. The cross section is reduced by more than a factor of 10 if $Θ^+$ has negative parity as given by lattice QCD studies. For both parities, the differential distribution peaks at small negative four momentum transfer as expected from the dominating $t$-channel kaon-exchange diagram that involves only the coupling of $Θ^+$ to $KN$.

description: This paper investigates the major drivers of the public debt growth in 184 countries. The underlying cross-country survey is conducted on the basis of the improved compilation of datasets on the central government debt for 2013. The study finds that oil abundance, economic growth rate, the share of mineral rent in the total revenue, interest rate payments for foreign borrowings, and being a developing country have statistically significant impact on the growth of the public debt. In contrast, defense spending, unemployment rate, and inflation rate do not have a statistically significant positive impact on the public debt rate.

description: 摘要：四色定理提出至今已有170年，目前公认的答案是1976年Appel结合计算机验证的证明。至今仍有不少学者在追求纯人工的证明，本文的目的在此。在构建极大平面图的过程中，利用染色顺序，找到单色顶点和双色顶点存在的转换联系。每个构建的节点构型，令单色顶点数在闭合外圈始终小于4，该构型可4着色。 （在单双色顶点总数量上，当平面图总点数大于3时，平均每增加一个点，多三条线，新顶点恰好有颜色可选择。当极大平面图构建完成时，所有的点至少可以是单色顶点。所以四色定理可能存在一种极简的证明方式。问题在于找到颜色之间的转换方式。本文进一步猜想着色的方案数和完全三角形的个数有关。这是本文的思路来源和展望，本文不做说明。)

description: This paper examines the long-run relationship between income and urban air pollution using a joint distribution dynamics approach. This approach enables to estimate the transition process and long-run distribution and to examine the mechanisms behind the evolution process. The approach is applied to a unique panel data of CO2, SO2 and PM2.5 (particulate matter smaller than 2.5μm) for 286 Chinese cities over the period 2002-2014. Strong persistence in the transition dynamics suggests that this convergence process may require a long time. The distribution dynamics analyses indicate that multiple equilibria are the major characteristics in the long-run relationship between income and urban air pollution in China, which implies that inter-regional technology spillover may be an important way to accelerate convergence. Our results further support the existence of poverty-environmental trap in PM2.5 concentrations. Thus, new environmental models are expected to be developed to explain this new stylized fact. The findings provide strong support for taking more aggressive measures that consider income and urban environment simultaneously to reduce poverty and air pollutions together in the Chinese cities.

description: The method of achieving desired learning outcomes via the use of structured learning objectives is taking a more prevalent role in the United States education system. As this trend approaches post-secondary education, it becomes necessary to develop a method for evaluating whether students obtain base proficiency in the various course learning objectives. In this study, researchers assessed proficiency in the learning objectives set forth in a Michigan State University College of Agriculture and Natural Resources introductory course, ABM 100: Decision Making in the Agri-Food System. Data was analyzed from the spring 2016 final exam. The results of the final exam were evaluated to determine if students met or exceeded proficiency in the learning objectives set for the course. Results indicate that base proficiency was met for three out of the course’s five primary objectives. The objective in which students demonstrated the highest proficiency was that relating to defining and understanding the players and functions of the agri-food system. Students struggled the most with the learning objectives focused on basic economic principles.
