The recent advances in camera-based bird's eye view (BEV) representation exhibit great potential for in-vehicle 3D perception. Despite the substantial progress achieved on standard benchmarks, the robustness of BEV algorithms has not been thoroughly examined, which is critical for safe operations. To bridge this gap, we introduce RoboBEV, a comprehensive benchmark suite that encompasses eight distinct corruptions, including Bright, Dark, Fog, Snow, Motion Blur, Color Quant, Camera Crash, and Frame Lost. Based on it, we undertake extensive evaluations across a wide range of BEV-based models to understand their resilience and reliability. Our findings indicate a strong correlation between absolute performance on in-distribution and out-of-distribution datasets. Nonetheless, there are considerable variations in relative performance across different approaches. Our experiments further demonstrate that pre-training and depth-free BEV transformation has the potential to enhance out-of-distribution robustness. Additionally, utilizing long and rich temporal information largely helps with robustness. Our findings provide valuable insights for designing future BEV models that can achieve both accuracy and robustness in real-world deployments.

In the description of electron spin obtained through the conventional Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, the concrete picture of rotation was replaced by an abstract mathematical representation; visualization or visualisability was entirely lost. The work described here takes a step towards restoring this.

The dipole anisotropy in the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) has given a peculiar velocity vector 370 km s$^{-1}$ along $l=264^\circ,b=48^\circ$. However, some other dipoles, for instance, from the number counts, sky brightness or redshift distributions in large samples of distant Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs), have yielded values of the peculiar velocity many times larger than that from the CMBR, though surprisingly, in all cases the directions agreed with the CMBR dipole. Here we determine our peculiar motion from a sample of ~0.28 million AGNs, selected from the Mid Infra Red Active Galactic Nuclei (MIRAGN) sample comprising more than a million sources. From this, we find a peculiar velocity, which is more than four times the CMBR value, although the direction seems to be within $\sim 2\sigma$ of the CMBR dipole. A genuine value of the solar peculiar velocity should be the same irrespective of the data or the technique employed to estimate it. Therefore, such discordant dipole amplitudes, might mean that the explanation for these dipoles, including that of the CMBR, might in fact be something else. But, the observed fact that the direction in all cases, is the same, though obtained from completely independent surveys using different instruments and techniques, by different sets of people employing different computing routines, might nonetheless indicate that these dipoles are not merely due to some systematics, otherwise why would they all be pointing along the same direction. It might instead suggest a preferred direction in the Universe, implying a genuine anisotropy, which would violate the Cosmological Principle, the core of the modern cosmology.

In this work, we study the effect of a magnetic field on the growth of cosmological perturbations. We develop a mathematical consistent treatment in which a perfect fluid and a uniform magnetic field evolve together in a Bianchi I universe. We then study the energy density perturbations on this background with particular emphasis on the effect of the background magnetic field. We develop a full relativistic solution which refines previous analysis in the relativistic limit, recovers the known ones in the Newtonian treatment with adiabatic sound speed, and it adds anisotropic effects to the relativistic ones for perturbations with wavelength within the Hubble horizon. This represents a refined approach on the perturbation theory of an isotropic universe in GR, since most of the present studies deal with fully isotropic systems.

This paper is about the extended thermodynamics of AdS black holes and its relation to CFT thermodynamics. The logarithmic term of the central charge is interpreted as black hole entropy. We have obtain a modified Friedmann equation from the Smarr formula. We find that the AdS radius is the critical shadow radius. We obtain the Hawking-Bekenstein formula with logarithmic corrections, which depends on the central charge. The real gas in AdS is a dual of an ideal gas in CFT. This work can be extended to the AdS-Kerr black holes.

In [CGN12], we proved that the renormalized critical Ising magnetization fields $\Phi^a:= a^{15/8} \sum_{x\in a\, \Z^2} \sigma_x \, \delta_x$ converge as $a\to 0$ to a random distribution that we denoted by $\Phi^\infty$. The purpose of this paper is to establish some fundamental properties satisfied by this $\Phi^\infty$ and the near-critical fields $\Phi^{\infty,h}$. More precisely, we obtain the following results. \bi [(i)] If $A\subset \C$ is a smooth bounded domain and if $m=m_A := <{\Phi^\infty, 1_A}$ denotes the limiting rescaled magnetization in $A$, then there is a constant $c=c_A>0$ such that {equation*} \log \Pb{m > x} \underset{x\to \infty}{\sim} -c \; x^{16}\,.{equation*} In particular, this provides an alternative proof that the field $\Phi^\infty$ is non-Gaussian (another proof of this fact would use the $n$-point correlation functions established in \cite{CHI} which do not satisfy Wick's formula). [(ii)] The random variable $m=m_A$ has a smooth {\it density} and one has more precisely the following bound on its Fourier transform: $|\Eb{e^{i\,t m}} |\le e^{- \tilde{c}\, |t|^{16/15}}$. [(iii)] There exists a one-parameter family $\Phi^{\infty,h}$ of near-critical scaling limits for the magnetization field in the plane with vanishingly small external magnetic field. \ei

The recently found non-BPS multi-wall configurations in the N=1 supergravity in four dimensions is shown to have no tachyonic scalar fluctuations without additional stabilization mechanisms. Mass of radion (lightest massive fluctuation) is found to be proportional to $Lambda {\rm e}^{-\pi\Lambda R/2}$, where $\Lambda $ is the inverse width of the wall and $ R$ is the radius of compactified dimension. We obtain localized massless graviton and gravitino forming a supermultiplet with respect to the Killing spinor. The relation between the bulk energy density and the boundary energy density (cosmological constants) is an automatic consequence of the field equation and Einstein equation. In the limit of vanishing gravitational coupling, the Nambu-Goldstone modes are reproduced.

Many aquatic organisms are able to track ambient flow disturbances and locate their source. These tasks are particularly challenging because they require the organism to sense local flow information and respond accordingly. Details of how these capabilities emerge from the interplay between neural control and mechano-sensory modalities remain elusive. Inspired by these organisms, we develop a mathematical model of a mobile sensor designed to find the source of a periodic flow disturbance. The sensor locally extracts the direction of propagation of the flow signal and adjusts its heading accordingly. We show, in a simplified flow field and under certain conditions on the controller, that the mobile sensor converges unconditionally to the source of the flow field. Then, through carefully-conducted numerical simulations of flow past an oscillating airfoil, we assess the behavior of the mobile sensor in complex flows and demonstrate its efficacy in tracking the flow signal and locating the airfoil. The proposed sensory and control strategy is relevant to the design of bio-inspired underwater robots, but the general idea of orienting opposite to the direction of information propagation can be applied more broadly in optimal sensor placements and climate models.

We present the high-$z$ quasar candidate archive (HzQCA), summarizing the spectroscopic observations of 174 $z\gtrsim5$ quasar candidates using Keck/LRIS, Keck/MOSFIRE, and Keck/NIRES. We identify 7 candidates as $z\sim 6$ quasars 3 of them newly reported here, and 51 candidates as brown dwarfs. In the remaining sources, 74 candidates are unlikely to be quasars; 2 sources are inconclusive; the others could not be fully reduced or extracted. Based on the classifications we investigate the distributions of quasars and contaminants in color space with photometry measurements from DELS ($z$), VIKING/UKIDSS ($YJHK_s$/$YJHK$), and un\textit{WISE} ($W1W2$). We find that the identified brown dwarfs are not fully consistent with the empirical brown dwarf model that is commonly used in quasar candidate selection methods. To refine spectroscopic confirmation strategies, we simulate synthetic spectroscopy of high-$z$ quasars and contaminants for all three instruments. The simulations utilize the spectroscopic data in HzQCA. We predict the required exposure times for quasar confirmation and propose and optimal strategy for spectroscopic follow-up observations. For example, we demonstrate that we can identify a $m_J=21.5$ at $z=7.6$ or a $m_J=23.0$ at $z=7.0$ within 15\,min of exposure time with LRIS. With the publication of the HzQCA we aim to provide guidance for future quasar surveys and candidate classification.

This paper explains a unified approach for teaching the electrical model of power transformers to undergraduate students using magnetic circuits. The commonly used approach for explaining the electrical model of power transformers is a hybrid approach in which magnetic circuits are used to explain the presence of series inductances. However, the presence of shunt inductance and resistance in the model is explained using alternative approaches. In contrary, this paper explains how both series and shunt elements can be described by using magnetic circuits. Moreover, three real-world examples and Matlab/Simulink results are provided to demonstrate how the presented explanations can be used to describe the responses of power transformers in real-world applications.

Existing studies for environment interaction with an aerial robot have been focused on interaction with static surroundings. However, to fully explore the concept of an aerial manipulation, interaction with moving structures should also be considered. In this paper, a multirotor-based aerial manipulator opening a daily-life moving structure, a hinged door, is presented. In order to address the constrained motion of the structure and to avoid collisions during operation, model predictive control (MPC) is applied to the derived coupled system dynamics between the aerial manipulator and the door involving state constraints. By implementing a constrained version of differential dynamic programming (DDP), MPC can generate position setpoints to the disturbance observer (DOB)-based robust controller in real-time, which is validated by our experimental results.

Distilling the structured information captured in feature maps has contributed to improved results for object detection tasks, but requires careful selection of baseline architectures and substantial pre-training. Self-distillation addresses these limitations and has recently achieved state-of-the-art performance for object detection despite making several simplifying architectural assumptions. Building on this work, we propose Smooth and Stepwise Self-Distillation (SSSD) for object detection. Our SSSD architecture forms an implicit teacher from object labels and a feature pyramid network backbone to distill label-annotated feature maps using Jensen-Shannon distance, which is smoother than distillation losses used in prior work. We additionally add a distillation coefficient that is adaptively configured based on the learning rate. We extensively benchmark SSSD against a baseline and two state-of-the-art object detector architectures on the COCO dataset by varying the coefficients and backbone and detector networks. We demonstrate that SSSD achieves higher average precision in most experimental settings, is robust to a wide range of coefficients, and benefits from our stepwise distillation procedure.

Militaries around the world have long been cognizant of the potential benefits associated with autonomous systems both in the conduct of warfare and in its prevention. This has lead to the declaration by some that this technology will lead to a fundamental change in the ways in which war is conducted, i.e., a revolution in military affairs (RMA) not unlike gunpowder, the long bow, the rifled bullet, the aircraft carrier, etc. Indeed the United States has created roadmaps for robotics with ever-increasing autonomous capability that span almost 40 years. These systems span air, sea, sea surface, littoral, ground and subterranean environments. There are serious societal and ethical concerns associated with the deployment of this technology that remain unaddressed. How can sufficient protection be afforded noncombatants? What about civilian blowback, where this technology may end up being used in policing operations against domestic groups? How can we protect the fundamental human rights of all involved? Considerable discussion is being conducted at an international level, including at the United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW) over the past two years, debating if and how such systems, particularly lethal platforms should be banned or regulated.

NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) is, at the distance of just 3.8 Mpc, the nearest easily observable giant elliptical galaxy. Therefore it is the best target to investigate the early star formation history of an elliptical galaxy. Our aims are to establish when the oldest stars formed in NGC 5128, and whether this galaxy formed stars over a long period. We compare simulated colour-magnitude diagrams with the deep ACS/HST photometry. We find that that the observed colour-magnitude diagram can be reproduced satisfactorily only by simulations that have the bulk of the stars with ages in excess of ~10 Gyr, and that the alpha-enhanced models fit the data much better than the solar scaled ones. Data are not consistent with extended star formation over more than 3-4 Gyr. Two burst models, with 70-80% of the stars formed 12+/-1 Gyr ago and with 20-30% younger contribution with 2-4 Gyr old stars provide the best agreement with the data. The old component spans the whole metallicity range of the models (Z=0.0001-0.04), while for the young component the best fitting models indicate higher minimum metallicity (~1/10 - 1/4 Z_sun). The bulk of the halo stars in NGC5128 must have formed at redshift z>=2 and the chemical enrichment was very fast, reaching solar or even twice-solar metallicity already for the ~11-12 Gyr old population. The minor young component, adding ~20-30% of the stars to the halo, and contributing less than 10% of the mass, may have resulted from a later star formation event ~2-4 Gyr ago. (abridged)

The reorientation dynamics of local tangent vectors of chains in isotropic amorphous melts containing semiflexible model polymers was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The reorientation is strongly influenced both by the local chain stiffness and by the overall chain length. It takes place by two different subsequent processes: A short-time non-exponential decay and a long-time exponential reorientation arising from the relaxation of medium-size chain segments. Both processes depend on stiffness and chain length. The strong influence of the chain length on the chain dynamics is in marked contrast to its negligible effect on the static structure of the melt. The local structure shows only a small dependence on the stiffness, and is independent of chain length. Calculated correlation functions related to double-quantum NMR experiments are in qualitative agreement with experiments on entangled melts. A plateau is observed in the dependence of segment reorientation on the mean-squared displacement of the corresponding chain segments. This plateau confirms, on one hand, the existence of reptation dynamics. On the other hand, it shows how the reptation picture has to be adapted if, instead of fully flexible chains, semirigid chains are considered.

We parametrize in a model-independent way possible departures from the minimal Standard Model predictions in the matter sector. We only assume the symmetry breaking pattern of the Standard Model and that new particles are sufficiently heavy so that the symmetry is non-linearly realized. Models with dynamical symmetry breaking are generically of this type. We review in the effective theory language to what extent the simplest models of dynamical breaking are actually constrained and the assumptions going into the comparison with experiment. Dynamical symmetry breaking models can be approximated at intermediate energies by four-fermion operators. We present a complete classification of the latter when new particles appear in the usual representations of the $SU(2)_L\times SU(3)_c$ group as well as a partial classification in the general case. We discuss the accuracy of the four-fermion description by matching to a simple `fundamental' theory. The coefficients of the effective lagrangian in the matter sector for dynamical symmetry breaking models (expressed in terms of the coefficients of the four-quark operators) are then compared to those of models with elementary scalars (such as the minimal Standard Model). Contrary to a somewhat widespread belief, we see that the sign of the vertex corrections is not fixed in dynamical symmetry breaking models. This work provides the theoretical tools required to analyze, in a rather general setting, constraints on the matter sector of the Standard Model.

An identifying code in a graph is a dominating set that also has the property that the closed neighborhood of each vertex in the graph has a distinct intersection with the set. The minimum cardinality of an identifying code, or ID code, in a graph $G$ is called the ID code number of $G$ and is denoted $\gid(G)$. In this paper, we give upper and lower bounds for the ID code number of the prism of a graph, or $G\Box K_2$. In particular, we show that $\gid(G \Box K_2) \ge \gid(G)$ and we show that this bound is sharp. We also give upper and lower bounds for the ID code number of grid graphs and a general upper bound for $\gid(G\Box K_2)$.

The progress article - Widening of the tropical belt in a changing climate - by Seidel et al. (2008) published in the first issue of Nature Geosciences, summarizes the results of several methods to determine the width of the tropical zone. All they show evidence that the tropics have been expanding over the past few decades. We confirm this widening based on one more indicator - the position of the subtropical centers of high pressure. However, we question the implication of the authors that the tropics widen in response to human activity, and suggest as a more probable cause the increasing solar activity. Consequently, we question their conclusion that this widening may continue into the future in association with anthropogenic climate change, and suggest that whether the tropics will continue widening will depend on the future evolution of solar activity rather than on anthropogenic activity.

Motivated by image-on-scalar regression with data aggregated across multiple sites, we consider a setting in which multiple independent studies each collect multiple dependent vector outcomes, with potential mean model parameter homogeneity between studies and outcome vectors. To determine the validity of jointly analyzing these data sources, we must learn which of these data sources share mean model parameters. We propose a new model fusion approach that delivers improved flexibility, statistical performance and computational speed over existing methods. Our proposed approach specifies a quadratic inference function within each data source and fuses mean model parameter vectors in their entirety based on a new formulation of a pairwise fusion penalty. We establish theoretical properties of our estimator and propose an asymptotically equivalent weighted oracle meta-estimator that is more computationally efficient. Simulations and application to the ABIDE neuroimaging consortium highlight the flexibility of the proposed approach. An R package is provided for ease of implementation.

We show that the process of non-instantaneous reheating during the post-inflationary period can have a sizable impact on the charged lepton equilibration temperature in the early Universe. This suggests relooking the effects of lepton flavors in the leptogenesis scenario where the production and decay of right-handed neutrinos take place within this prolonged era of reheating. We find this observation has the potential to shift the flavor regime(s) of leptogenesis compared to the standard radiation-dominated era.

We study the Schloegl model in a vesicle with semi-permeable membrane. The diffusion constant takes a smaller value in the membrane region, which prevents the outflow of self-catalytic product. A nonequilibrium state is stably maintained inside of the vesicle. Nutrients are absorbed and waste materials are exhausted through the membrane by diffusion. It is interpreted as a model of primitive metabolism in a cell.

This paper presents the intrinsic limit determination algorithm (ILD Algorithm), a novel technique to determine the best possible performance, measured in terms of the AUC (area under the ROC curve) and accuracy, that can be obtained from a specific dataset in a binary classification problem with categorical features {\sl regardless} of the model used. This limit, namely the Bayes error, is completely independent of any model used and describes an intrinsic property of the dataset. The ILD algorithm thus provides important information regarding the prediction limits of any binary classification algorithm when applied to the considered dataset. In this paper the algorithm is described in detail, its entire mathematical framework is presented and the pseudocode is given to facilitate its implementation. Finally, an example with a real dataset is given.

Joint communication and localization~(JCL) is envisioned to be a key feature in future millimeter-wave~(mmWave) wireless networks for context-aware applications. A map-based channel model considering both site-specific radio environment and statistical channel characteristics is essential to facilitate JCL research and to evaluate the performance of various JCL systems. To this end, this paper presents an open-source hybrid mmWave channel simulator called OmniSIM for site-specific JCL research, which uses digital map, network layout and user trajectories as inputs to predict the channel responses between users and base stations. A fast shooting-bouncing rays~(FSBR) algorithm combined with Computational Electromagnetic, has been developed to generate channel parameters relevant to JCL, considering mmWave reflection, diffusing, diffraction and scattering.

We investigate online Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with adversarially changing loss functions and known transitions. We choose dynamic regret as the performance measure, defined as the performance difference between the learner and any sequence of feasible changing policies. The measure is strictly stronger than the standard static regret that benchmarks the learner's performance with a fixed compared policy. We consider three foundational models of online MDPs, including episodic loop-free Stochastic Shortest Path (SSP), episodic SSP, and infinite-horizon MDPs. For these three models, we propose novel online ensemble algorithms and establish their dynamic regret guarantees respectively, in which the results for episodic (loop-free) SSP are provably minimax optimal in terms of time horizon and certain non-stationarity measure. Furthermore, when the online environments encountered by the learner are predictable, we design improved algorithms and achieve better dynamic regret bounds for the episodic (loop-free) SSP; and moreover, we demonstrate impossibility results for the infinite-horizon MDPs.

We propose a systematic magnetic-flux-free approach to detect, manipulate and braid Majorana fermions in a semiconductor nanowire-based topological Josephson junction by utilizing the Majorana spin degree of freedom. We find an intrinsic $\pi$-phase difference between spin-triplet pairings enforced by the Majorana zeros modes (MZMs) at the two ends of a one-dimensional spinful topological superconductor. This $\pi$-phase is identified to be a spin-dependent superconducting phase, referred to as the spin-phase, which we show to be tunable by controlling spin-orbit coupling strength via electric gates. This electric controllable spin-phase not only affects the coupling energy between MZMs but also leads to a fractional Josephson effect in the absence of any applied magnetic flux, which enables the efficient topological qubit readout. We thus propose an all-electrically controlled superconductor-semiconductor hybrid circuit to manipulate MZMs and to detect their non-Abelian braiding statistics properties. Our work on spin properties of topological Josephson effects potentially opens up a new thrust for spintronic applications with Majorana-based semiconductor quantum circuits.

We calculate the two loop hard correction to the photon self-energy in an electron-positron plasma (EPP) for arbitrary soft momenta. This provides the only missing ingredient to obtain the Hard Thermal Loop (HTL) effective Lagrangian at next-to-leading order (NLO), and the full photon propagator at the same order. This result can be easily extended to obtain the soft photon propagator in a quark gluon plasma. We use the Keldysh representation of the real time formalism in the massless fermion limit, and dimensional regularization (DR) to regulate any ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR) or collinear divergences that appear in the intermediate steps of the calculation. In the limit of soft photon momenta, our result is finite. It not only provides an ${\cal O}(\alpha)$ correction to the Debye mass, but also a new non-local structure. A consistent regularization of radial and angular integrals is crucial to get this new structure. As an application we calculate the plasmon dispersion relations at NLO.

The electronic structure in the new transition metal carbide Ti4SiC3 has been investigated by bulk-sensitive soft x-ray emission spectroscopy and compared to the well-studied Ti3SiC2 and TiC systems. The measured high-resolution Ti L, C K and Si L x-ray emission spectra are discussed with ab initio calculations based on density-functional theory including core-to-valence dipole matrix elements. The detailed investigations of the Ti-C and Ti-Si chemical bonds provide increased understanding of the physical properties of these nanolaminates. A strongly modified spectral shape is detected for the buried Si monolayers due to Si 3p hybridization with the Ti 3d orbitals. As a result of relaxation of the crystal structure and the charge-transfer from Ti (and Si) to C, the strength of the Ti-C covalent bond is increased. The differences between the electronic and crystal structures of Ti4SiC3 and Ti3SiC2 are discussed in relation to the number of Si layers per Ti layer in the two systems and the corresponding change of materials properties.

PSI operates a cyclotron based high intensity proton accelerator routinely at an average beam power of 1.3MW. With this power the facility is at the worldwide forefront of high intensity proton accelerators. The beam current is practically limited by losses at extraction and the resulting activation of accelerator components. Further intensity upgrades and new projects aiming at an even higher average beam power, are only possible if the relative losses can be lowered in proportion, thus keeping absolute losses at a constant level. Maintaining beam losses at levels allowing hands-on maintenance is a primary challenge in any high power proton machine design and operation. In consequence, predicting beam halo at these levels is a great challenge and will be addressed in this paper. High power hadron driver have being used in many disciplines of science and, a growing interest in the cyclotron technology for high power hadron drivers are being observed very recently. This report will briefly introduce OPAL, a tool for precise beam dynamics simulations including 3D space charge. One of OPAL's flavors (OPAL-cycl) is dedicated to high power cyclotron modeling and is explained in greater detail. We then explain how to obtain initial conditions for our PSI Ring cyclotron which still delivers the world record in beam power of 1.3 MW continuous wave (cw). Several crucial steps are explained necessary to be able to predict tails at the level of 3\sigma ... 4\sigma in the PSI Ring cyclotron. We compare our results at the extraction with measurements, obtained with a 1.18 MW cw production beam. Based on measurement data, we develop a simple linear model to predict beam sizes of the extracted beam as a function of intensities and confirm the model with simulations.

Properties of the nucleon twist-3 distribution function e(x) are reviewed. It is emphasized that the QCD equations of motion imply the existence of a delta-function at x=0 in e(x), which gives rise to the pion-nucleon sigma-term. According to the resulting ``practical'' DIS sum rules the first and the second moment of e(x) vanish, a situation analogue to that of the pure twist-3 distribution function $\bar{g}_2(x)$.

We study random-matrix ensembles with a non-Gaussian probability distribution $P(H) \sim \exp (-N {\rm tr }\, V(H))$ where $N$ is the dimension of the matrix $H$ and $V(H)$ is independent of $N$. Using Efetov's supersymmetry formalism, we show that in the limit $N \rightarrow \infty$ both energy level correlation functions and correlation functions of $S$-matrix elements are independent of $P(H)$ and hence universal on the scale of the local mean level spacing. This statement applies to each of the three generic ensembles (unitary, orthogonal, and symplectic). Universality is also found for correlation functions depending on some external parameter. Our results generalize previous work by Brezin and Zee [Nucl.\ Phys.\ B {\bf 402}, 613 (1993)].

Evidential deep learning, built upon belief theory and subjective logic, offers a principled and computationally efficient way to turn a deterministic neural network uncertainty-aware. The resultant evidential models can quantify fine-grained uncertainty using the learned evidence. To ensure theoretically sound evidential models, the evidence needs to be non-negative, which requires special activation functions for model training and inference. This constraint often leads to inferior predictive performance compared to standard softmax models, making it challenging to extend them to many large-scale datasets. To unveil the real cause of this undesired behavior, we theoretically investigate evidential models and identify a fundamental limitation that explains the inferior performance: existing evidential activation functions create zero evidence regions, which prevent the model to learn from training samples falling into such regions. A deeper analysis of evidential activation functions based on our theoretical underpinning inspires the design of a novel regularizer that effectively alleviates this fundamental limitation. Extensive experiments over many challenging real-world datasets and settings confirm our theoretical findings and demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach.

The coherence of an individual quantum state can be meaningfully discussed only when referring to a preferred basis. This arbitrariness can however be lifted when considering sets of quantum states. Here we introduce the concept of set coherence for characterising the coherence of a set of quantum systems in a basis-independent way. We construct measures for quantifying set coherence of sets of quantum states as well as quantum measurements. These measures feature an operational meaning in terms of discrimination games and capture precisely the advantage offered by a given set over incoherent ones. Along the way, we also connect the notion of set coherence to various resource-theoretic approaches recently developed for quantum systems.

Following an idea of Ishida, we develop polynomial equations for certain unramified double covers of surfaces with p_g=q=1 and K^2=2. Our first main result provides an explicit surface surface X with these invariants defined over Q that has Picard number 2, which is the smallest possible for these surfaces. This is done by giving equations for the double cover Y of X, calculating the zeta function of the reduction of Y to F_3, and extracting from this the zeta function of the reduction of X to F_3; the basic idea used in this process may also be of independent interest. Our second main result is a big monodromy theorem for a family that contains all surfaces with p_g=q=1, K^2=2, and K is ample. It follows from this that a certain Hodge correspondence of Kuga and Satake, between such a surface and an abelian variety, is motivated (and hence absolute Hodge). This allows us to deduce our third main result, which is that the Tate Conjecture in characteristic zero holds for all surfaces with p_g=q=1, K^2=2, and K ample.

We study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of a finite-temperature harmonically trapped Tonks-Girardeau gas induced by periodic modulation of the trap frequency. We give explicit exact solutions for the real-space density and momentum distributions of this interacting many-body system and characterize the stability diagram of the dynamics by mapping the many-body solution to the solution and stability diagram of Mathieu's differential equation. The mapping allows one to deduce the exact structure of parametric resonances in the parameter space characterized by the driving amplitude and frequency of the modulation. Furthermore, we analyze the same problem within the finite-temperature hydrodynamic approach and show that the respective solutions to the hydrodynamic equations can be mapped to the same Mathieu equation. Accordingly, the stability diagram and the structure of resonances following from the hydrodynamic approach is exactly the same as those obtained from the exact many-body solution.

We analyse numerically manifestations of the radiative amplitude zero (RAZ) effect in single leptoquark production associated with hard photon emission. We present some quantitative conclusions on the possibility to distinguish leptoquark charges produced in ep collisions taking account of three-body final state subprocesses and of proton structure functions. Applying this method to HERA and possible LEP+LHC experiments we show that the RAZ analysis can serve as a tool to determine the leptoquark electric charge up to large leptoquark masses.

Many-shot from Low-shot: Learning to Annotate using Mixed Supervision for Object Detection

Object detection has witnessed significant progress by relying on large, manually annotated datasets. Annotating such datasets is highly time consuming and expensive, which motivates the development of weakly supervised and few-shot object detection methods. However, these methods largely underperform with respect to their strongly supervised counterpart, as weak training signals \emph{often} result in partial or oversized detections. Towards solving this problem we introduce, for the first time, an online annotation module (OAM) that learns to generate a many-shot set of \emph{reliable} annotations from a larger volume of weakly labelled images. Our OAM can be jointly trained with any fully supervised two-stage object detection method, providing additional training annotations on the fly. This results in a fully end-to-end strategy that only requires a low-shot set of fully annotated images. The integration of the OAM with Fast(er) R-CNN improves their performance by $17\%$ mAP, $9\%$ AP50 on PASCAL VOC 2007 and MS-COCO benchmarks, and significantly outperforms competing methods using mixed supervision.

We study the problem of decentralized secondary frequency regulation in power networks where ancillary services are provided via on-off load-side participation. We initially consider on-off loads that switch when prescribed frequency thresholds are exceeded, together with a large class of passive continuous dynamics for generation and demand. The considered on-off loads are able to assist existing secondary frequency control mechanisms and return to their nominal operation when the power system is restored to its normal operation, a highly desirable feature which minimizes users disruption. We show that system stability is not compromised despite the switching nature of the loads. However, such control policies are prone to chattering, which limits the practicality of these schemes. As a remedy to this problem, we propose a hysteretic on-off policy where loads switch on and off at different frequency thresholds and show that stability guarantees are retained when the same decentralized passivity conditions for continuous generation and demand hold. Several relevant examples are discussed to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed results. Furthermore, we verify our analytic results with numerical investigations on the Northeast Power Coordinating Council (NPCC) 140-bus system.

The matching polynomial of a graph is the generating function of the numbers of its matchings with respect to their cardinality. A graph polynomial is polynomial reconstructible, if its value for a graph can be determined from its values for the vertex-deleted subgraphs of the same graph. This note discusses the polynomial reconstructibility of the matching polynomial. We collect previous results, prove it for graphs with pendant edges and disprove it for some graphs.

Buoyancy effects and nozzle geometry can have a significant impact on turbulent jet dispersion. This work was motivated by applications involving hydrogen. Using helium as an experimental proxy, buoyant horizontal jets issuing from a round orifice on the side wall of a circular tube were analysed experimentally using particle image velocimetry (PIV) and planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) techniques simultaneously to provide instantaneous and time-averaged flow fields of velocity and concentration. Effects of buoyancy and asymmetry on the resulting flow structure were studied over a range of Reynolds numbers and gas densities. Significant differences were found between the centreline trajectory, spreading rate, and velocity decay of conventional horizontal round axisymmetric jets issuing through flat plates and the pipeline leak-representative jets considered in the present study. The realistic pipeline jets were always asymmetric and found to deflect about the jet axis in the near field. In the far field, it was found that the realistic pipeline leak geometry causes buoyancy effects to dominate much sooner than expected compared to horizontal round jets issuing through flat plates.

In this paper, we have defined a novel task of affective feedback synthesis that deals with generating feedback for input text & corresponding image in a similar way as humans respond towards the multimodal data. A feedback synthesis system has been proposed and trained using ground-truth human comments along with image-text input. We have also constructed a large-scale dataset consisting of image, text, Twitter user comments, and the number of likes for the comments by crawling the news articles through Twitter feeds. The proposed system extracts textual features using a transformer-based textual encoder while the visual features have been extracted using a Faster region-based convolutional neural networks model. The textual and visual features have been concatenated to construct the multimodal features using which the decoder synthesizes the feedback. We have compared the results of the proposed system with the baseline models using quantitative and qualitative measures. The generated feedbacks have been analyzed using automatic and human evaluation. They have been found to be semantically similar to the ground-truth comments and relevant to the given text-image input.

Comprehensive Monte Carlo simulations of the short-time dynamic behaviour are reported for the three-dimensional Ising model at criticality. Besides the exponent $\theta$ of the critical initial increase and the dynamic exponent $z$, the static critical exponents $\nu$ and $\beta$ as well as the critical temperature are determined from the power-law scaling behaviour of observables at the beginning of the time evolution. States of very high temperature as well as of zero temperature are used as initial states for the simulations.

In each Lie group, the Levi-Civita connection and sectional curvature have been given explicitly. We also show these spaces have constant negative scalar curvatures. Then by using left invariant Riemannian metrics introduced in the first part, we construct some left invariant Randers metrics of Berwald type. The explicit formulas for computing flag curvature have been obtained in all cases. Some of these Finsler Lie groups are of non-positive flag curvature.

We have performed multicanonical Monte Carlo simulations of C-peptide of ribonuclease A. It is known by CD and NMR experiments that this peptide has high alpha-helix content in aqueous solution and that the side-chain charges of residues Glu-2$^-$ and His-12$^+$ play an important role in the stability of the alpha-helix. In order to confirm these experimental implications, we have used two analogues of the peptide with charged and neutral side chains of Glu-2 and His-12. Two dielectric functions, distance-dependent and constant, are considered to study the effects of solvent contributions. All the simulations were started from random initial conformations. Various thermodynamic quantities such as average helicity as a function of residue number and average distance between two side chains as a function of temperature are calculated. The results are found to be in accord with the implications of CD and NMR experiments. The lowest-energy conformation obtained has an alpha-helix from Ala-4 to Gln-11 in complete agreement with the corresponding structure deduced from an X-ray crystallography experiment of ribonuclease A. It is shown that the salt bridge between the side chains of Glu-2$^-$ and Arg-10$^+$, which is known to exist from both NMR and X-ray experiments, is formed only when the side chains are properly charged. Its formation is greatly enhanced when the distance-dependent dielectric function is used.

We introduce Code Park, a novel tool for visualizing codebases in a 3D game-like environment. Code Park aims to improve a programmer's understanding of an existing codebase in a manner that is both engaging and intuitive, appealing to novice users such as students. It achieves these goals by laying out the codebase in a 3D park-like environment. Each class in the codebase is represented as a 3D room-like structure. Constituent parts of the class (variable, member functions, etc.) are laid out on the walls, resembling a syntax-aware "wallpaper". The users can interact with the codebase using an overview, and a first-person viewer mode. We conducted two user studies to evaluate Code Park's usability and suitability for organizing an existing project. Our results indicate that Code Park is easy to get familiar with and significantly helps in code understanding compared to a traditional IDE. Further, the users unanimously believed that Code Park was a fun tool to work with.

In response to an external, microwave-frequency magnetic field, a paramagnetic medium will absorb energy from the field that drives the magnetization dynamics. Here we describe a new process by which an external spin injection source, when combined with the microwave field spin-pumping, can drive the paramagnetic medium from one that absorbs microwave energy to one that emits microwave energy. We derive a simple condition for the crossover from absorptive to emissive behavior. Based on this process, we propose a spin injection-driven paramagnetic MASER device.

For the past few centuries, the temporal variation in the Earth's magnetic field in the Pacific region has been anomalously low. The reason for this is tied to large scale flows in the liquid outer core near the core-mantle boundary, which are weaker under the Pacific and feature a planetary scale gyre that is eccentric and broadly avoids this region. However, what regulates this type of flow morphology is unknown. Here, we present results from a numerical model of the dynamics in Earth's core that includes electromagnetic coupling with a non-uniform conducting layer at the base of the mantle. We show that when the conductance of this layer is higher under the Pacific than elsewhere, the larger electromagnetic drag force weakens the local core flows and deflects the flow of the planetary gyre away from the Pacific. The nature of the lowermost mantle conductance remains unclear, but stratified core fluid trapped within topographic undulations of the core-mantle boundary is a possible explanation.

The article considers generic extensions of measure-preserving actions, particularly, the lifting of some action invariants. The work is encouraged by recent results of Austin, Glasner, Thouvenot, and Weiss. We prove that the P-entropy of the generic extensions with finite P-entropy, which is an invariant of the Kushnirenko entropy type, is infinite. A different approach is exploited to obtain the result of the above-mentioned authors that the generic extension of an deterministic action is not isomorphic to this action. We have proved that generic cocycles are recurrent. It is shown that typical extensions preserve the singularity of the spectrum, partial rigidity, mildly mixing, mixing (we announced similar stability for multiple mixing and PID property of actions). At the same time, the lifting of some algebraic properties under the generic extension may depend on the statistical properties of the base. Typical measurable families of automorphisms are considered as well. The dynamic behavior of such families is a bit unusual. It is characterized by both dynamic conformism and dynamic individualism of the representatives of the generic family.

Node classification is one of the hottest tasks in graph analysis. In this paper, we focus on the choices of node representations (aggregated features vs. adjacency lists) and the edge direction of an input graph (directed vs. undirected), which have a large influence on classification results. We address the first empirical study to benchmark the performance of various GNNs that use either combination of node representations and edge directions. Our experiments demonstrate that no single combination stably achieves state-of-the-art results across datasets, which indicates that we need to select appropriate combinations depending on the characteristics of datasets. In response, we propose a simple yet holistic classification method A2DUG which leverages all combinations of node representation variants in directed and undirected graphs. We demonstrate that A2DUG stably performs well on various datasets. Surprisingly, it largely outperforms the current state-of-the-art methods in several datasets. This result validates the importance of the adaptive effect control on the combinations of node representations and edge directions.

Processes occurring in brains, a.k.a. biological neural networks, can and have been modeled within artificial neural network architectures. Due to this, we have conducted a review of research on the phenomenon of blindsight in an attempt to generate ideas for artificial intelligence models. Blindsight can be considered as a diminished form of visual experience. If we assume that artificial networks have no form of visual experience, then deficits caused by blindsight give us insights into the processes occurring within visual experience that we can incorporate into artificial neural networks. This article has been structured into three parts. Section 2 is a review of blindsight research, looking specifically at the errors occurring during this condition compared to normal vision. Section 3 identifies overall patterns from Section 2 to generate insights for computational models of vision. Section 4 demonstrates the utility of examining biological research to inform artificial intelligence research by examining computation models of visual attention relevant to one of the insights generated in Section 3. The research covered in Section 4 shows that incorporating one of our insights into computational vision does benefit those models. Future research will be required to determine whether our other insights are as valuable.

Recently the small value of the cosmological constant and its ability to accelerate the expansion of the Universe is of great interest. We discuss the possibility of forming of anisotropic compact stars from this cosmological constant as one of the competent candidates of dark energy. For this purpose we consider the analytical solution of Krori and Barua metric. We take the radial dependence of cosmological constant and check all the regularity conditions, TOV equations, stability and surface redshift of the compact stars. It has been shown as conclusion that this model is valid for any compact star and we have cited $4U 1820-30$ as a specific example of that kind of star.

We have carried out a high statistics (2 Billion events) search for ultra-high energy gamma-ray emission from the X-ray binary sources Cygnus X-3 and Hercules X-1. Using data taken with the CASA-MIA detector over a five year period (1990-1995), we find no evidence for steady emission from either source at energies above 115 TeV. The derived upper limits on such emission are more than two orders of magnitude lower than earlier claimed detections. We also find no evidence for neutral particle or gamma-ray emission from either source on time scales of one day and 0.5 hr. For Cygnus X-3, there is no evidence for emission correlated with the 4.8 hr X-ray periodicity or with the occurrence of large radio flares. Unless one postulates that these sources were very active earlier and are now dormant, the limits presented here put into question the earlier results, and highlight the difficulties that possible future experiments will have in detecting gamma-ray signals at ultra-high energies.

The robustness principle, written by Jon Postel in an early version of TCP implementation, states that the communicating entities should be liberal while accepting the data. Several entities on the Internet do follow this principle. For instance, in this work, we show that many popular web servers on the Internet are generous as they wait for a substantial time period to receive the remaining portion of an incomplete web request. Unfortunately, this behavior also makes them vulnerable to a class of cyber attacks, commonly known as Slow Rate DoS attacks. HTTP/2, the recent version of HTTP, is recently found vulnerable to these attacks. However, the impact of Slow HTTP/2 DoS attacks on real web servers on the Internet has not been studied yet. Also, to the best of our knowledge, there is no defense scheme known to detect Slow Rate DoS attacks against HTTP/2 in real-time. To bridge these gaps, we first test the behavior of HTTP/2 supporting web servers on the Internet against Slow HTTP/2 DoS attacks. Subsequently, we propose a scheme to detect these attacks in real-time. We show that the proposed detection scheme can detect attacks in real-time with high accuracy and marginal computational overhead.

A transition state for a Hamiltonian system is a closed, invariant, oriented, codimension-2 submanifold of an energy-level that can be spanned by two compact codimension-1 surfaces of unidirectional flux whose union, called a dividing surface, locally separates the energy-level into two components and has no local recrossings. For this to happen robustly to all smooth perturbations, the transition state must be normally hyperbolic. The dividing surface then has locally minimal geometric flux through it, giving an upper bound on the rate of transport in either direction. Transition states diffeomorphic to $\mathbb S^{2m-3}$ are known to exist for energies just above any index-1 critical point of a Hamiltonian of $m$ degrees of freedom, with dividing surfaces $\mathbb S^{2m-2}$. The question addressed here is what qualitative changes in the transition state, and consequently the dividing surface, may occur as the energy or other parameters are varied? We find that there is a class of systems for which the transition state becomes singular and then regains normal hyperbolicity with a change in diffeomorphism class. These are Morse bifurcations. Various examples are considered. Firstly, some simple examples in which transition states connect or disconnect, and the dividing surface may become a torus or other. Then, we show how sequences of Morse bifurcations producing various interesting forms of transition state and dividing surface are present in reacting systems, by considering a hypothetical class of bimolecular reactions in gas phase.

Quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators host topologically protected dissipationless chiral edge states, the number of which is determined by its Chern number. Up to now, the QAH state has been realized in a few magnetic topological insulators, but usually with a low Chern number. Here, we develop a Dirac-fermion approach which is valuable to understand and design high Chern numbers in various multilayers of layered magnetic topological insulators. Based on the Dirac-fermion approach, we demonstrate how to understand and tune high Chern numbers in ferromagentic MnBi$_{2}$Te$_{4}$ films through the van der Waals (vdW) gap modulation. Further, we also employ the Dirac-fermion approach to understand the experimentally observed high Chern numbers and topological phase transition from the Chern number $C=2$ to $C=1$ in the [3QL-(Bi,Sb)$_{1.76}$Cr$_{0.24}$Te$_{3}$]/[4QL-(Bi,Sb)$_{2}$Te$_{3}$] multilayers. Our work provides a powerful tool to design the QAH states with a high Chern number in layered magnetic topological insulator multilayers.

Although using machine learning techniques to solve computer security challenges is not a new idea, the rapidly emerging Deep Learning technology has recently triggered a substantial amount of interests in the computer security community. This paper seeks to provide a dedicated review of the very recent research works on using Deep Learning techniques to solve computer security challenges. In particular, the review covers eight computer security problems being solved by applications of Deep Learning: security-oriented program analysis, defending return-oriented programming (ROP) attacks, achieving control-flow integrity (CFI), defending network attacks, malware classification, system-event-based anomaly detection, memory forensics, and fuzzing for software security.

Interbank markets are often characterised in terms of a core-periphery network structure, with a highly interconnected core of banks holding the market together, and a periphery of banks connected mostly to the core but not internally. This paradigm has recently been challenged for short time scales, where interbank markets seem better characterised by a bipartite structure with more core-periphery connections than inside the core. Using a novel core-periphery detection method on the eMID interbank market, we enrich this picture by showing that the network is actually characterised by multiple core-periphery pairs. Moreover, a transition from core-periphery to bipartite structures occurs by shortening the temporal scale of data aggregation. We further show how the global financial crisis transformed the market, in terms of composition, multiplicity and internal organisation of core-periphery pairs. By unveiling such a fine-grained organisation and transformation of the interbank market, our method can find important applications in the understanding of how distress can propagate over financial networks.

Lifting theorems are theorems that relate the query complexity of a function $f:\{0,1\}^{n}\to\{0,1\}$ to the communication complexity of the composed function $f \circ g^{n}$, for some "gadget" $g:\{0,1\}^{b}\times\{0,1\}^{b}\to\{0,1\}$. Such theorems allow transferring lower bounds from query complexity to the communication complexity, and have seen numerous applications in the recent years. In addition, such theorems can be viewed as a strong generalization of a direct-sum theorem for the gadget $g$. We prove a new lifting theorem that works for all gadgets $g$ that have logarithmic length and exponentially-small discrepancy, for both deterministic and randomized communication complexity. Thus, we significantly increase the range of gadgets for which such lifting theorems hold. Our result has two main motivations: First, allowing a larger variety of gadgets may support more applications. In particular, our work is the first to prove a randomized lifting theorem for logarithmic-size gadgets, thus improving some applications of the theorem. Second, our result can be seen as a strong generalization of a direct-sum theorem for functions with low discrepancy.

We consider a quasi-homogeneous polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x_0, \ldots, x_N]$ of degree $w$ equal to the degree of $x_0 \cdots x_N$ and show that the $F$-pure threshold of the reduction $f_p \in \mathbb{F}_p[x_0, \ldots, x_N]$ is equal to the log canonical threshold if and only if the height of the Artin-Mazur formal group associated to $H^{N-1}\left( X, {\mathbb{G}}_{m,X} \right)$, where $X$ is the hypersurface given by $f$, is equal to 1. We also prove that a similar result holds for Fermat hypersurfaces of degree $>N+1$. Furthermore, we give examples of weighted Delsarte surfaces which show that other values of the $F$-pure threshold of a quasi-homogeneous polynomial of degree $w$ cannot be characterized by the height.

We study the Euler equations with the so-called Ekman damping in the whole 2D space. The global well-posedness and dissipativity for the weak infinite energy solutions of this problem in the uniformly local spaces is verified based on the further development of the weighted energy theory for the Navier-Stokes and Euler type problems. In addition, the existence of weak locally compact global attractor is proved and some extra compactness of this attractor is obtained.

We design a framework based on Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN) to automatically detect and separately extract anatomical components of mosquitoes - thorax, wings, abdomen and legs from images. Our training dataset consisted of 1500 smartphone images of nine mosquito species trapped in Florida. In the proposed technique, the first step is to detect anatomical components within a mosquito image. Then, we localize and classify the extracted anatomical components, while simultaneously adding a branch in the neural network architecture to segment pixels containing only the anatomical components. Evaluation results are favorable. To evaluate generality, we test our architecture trained only with mosquito images on bumblebee images. We again reveal favorable results, particularly in extracting wings. Our techniques in this paper have practical applications in public health, taxonomy and citizen-science efforts.

Let K be a principal ideal domain, G a finite group, and M a KG-module which as K-module is free of finite rank, and on which $G$ acts faithfully. A generalized crystallographic group (introduced by the authors in volume 5 of Journal of Group Theory) is a group $\frak C$ which has a normal subgroup isomorphic to M with quotient G, such that conjugation in $\frak C$ gives the same action of G on M that we started with. (When $K=\Bbb Z$, these are just the classical crystallographic groups.) The K-free rank of M is said to be the dimension of $\frak C$, the holonomy group of $\frak C$ is G, and $\frak C$ is called indecomposable if M is an indecomposable KG-module. Let K be either $\Bbb Z$, or its localization $\Bbb Z_{(p)}$ at the prime p, or the ring $\Bbb Z_p$ of p-adic integers, and consider indecomposable torsionfree generalized crystallographic groups whose holonomy group is noncyclic of order p^2. In Theorem 2, we prove that (for any given p) the dimensions of these groups are not bounded. For $K=\Bbb Z$, we show in Theorem 3 that there are infinitely many non-isomorphic indecomposable torsionfree crystallographic groups with holonomy group the alternating group of degree 4. In Theorem 1, we look at a cyclic G whose order |G| satisfies the following condition: for all prime divisors p of |G|, p^2 also divides G, and for at least one p, even p^3 does. We prove that then every product of |G| with a positive integer coprime to it occurs as the dimension of some indecomposable torsionfree crystallographic group with holonomy group G.

The Abricosov vortex and bundles dynamics was experimentally investigated in Earth's magnetic field range. Isothermal relaxation features in YBCO single crystal samples with strong pinning centers were studied for different sample-field orientation. The normalized relaxation rate S obtained allowed to estimate the effective pinning potential U in the bulk of the YBCO sample and its temperature dependence, as well as the critical current density Jc. A comparison between the data obtained and the results for similar measurements in significantly higher magnetic fields was performed. To compare different Jc measuring techniques magnetization loop M(H) measurements, were made. These measurements provide many important parameters of the sample under study (penetration field Hp, first critical field Hc1, etc.) that contain the geometrical configuration of the samples.

This paper proposes a novel nonlinear activation mechanism typically for convolutional neural network (CNN), named as reborn mechanism. In sharp contrast to ReLU which cuts off the negative phase value, the reborn mechanism enjoys the capacity to reborn and reconstruct dead neurons. Compared to other improved ReLU functions, reborn mechanism introduces a more proper way to utilize the negative phase information. Extensive experiments validate that this activation mechanism is able to enhance the model representation ability more significantly and make the better use of the input data information while maintaining the advantages of the original ReLU function. Moreover, reborn mechanism enables a non-symmetry that is hardly achieved by traditional CNNs and can act as a channel compensation method, offering competitive or even better performance but with fewer learned parameters than traditional methods. Reborn mechanism was tested on various benchmark datasets, all obtaining better performance than previous nonlinear activation functions.

Tracking by detection paradigm is one of the most popular object tracking methods. However, it is very dependent on the performance of the detector. When the detector has a behavior of missing detection, the tracking result will be directly affected. In this paper, we analyze the phenomenon of the lost tracking object in real-time tracking model on MOT2020 dataset. Based on simple and traditional methods, we propose a compensation tracker to further alleviate the lost tracking problem caused by missing detection. It consists of a motion compensation module and an object selection module. The proposed method not only can re-track missing tracking objects from lost objects, but also does not require additional networks so as to maintain speed-accuracy trade-off of the real-time model. Our method only needs to be embedded into the tracker to work without re-training the network. Experiments show that the compensation tracker can efficaciously improve the performance of the model and reduce identity switches. With limited costs, the compensation tracker successfully enhances the baseline tracking performance by a large margin and reaches 66% of MOTA and 67% of IDF1 on MOT2020 dataset.

In the first part of the thesis, and after an introduction to certain models of modified gravity, we study consistent Lagrangians for Lorentz invariant (massive and massless) spin-2 and spin-3/2 particles in flat space. The second part of the dissertation is devoted to non-linear extensions for the spin-2 case, focusing on unimodular gravity and bigravity. Both theories lead to modifications of General Relativity at large distances and we will study exact solutions, causal structure of those solutions, and perturbation theory (specially for the Lorentz breaking case). Some comments on quantization of these theories can be found in an appendix.

We propose a new architecture for the measurement-based quantum computation model. The new design relies on small composite light-atom primary clusters. These are then assembled into cluster arrays using ancillary light modes and the actual computation is run on such a cellular cluster. We show how to create the primary clusters, which are Gaussian cluster states composed of both light and atomic modes. These are entangled via QND interactions and beamsplitters and the scheme is well described within the continuous-variable covariance matrix formalism.

Most, if not all, young stars are initially surrounded by protoplanetary disks. Owing to the preferential formation of stars in stellar clusters, the protoplanetary disks around these stars may potentially be affected by the cluster environment. Various works have investigated the influence of stellar fly-bys on disks, although many of them consider only the effects due to parabolic, coplanar encounters often for equal-mass stars, which is only a very special case. We perform numerical simulations to study the fate of protoplanetary disks after the impact of parabolic star-disk encounter for the less investigated case of inclined up to coplanar, retrograde encounters, which is a much more common case. Here, we concentrate on the disk size after such encounters because this limits the size of the potentially forming planetary systems. In addition, with the possibilities that ALMA offers, now a direct comparison to observations is possible. Covering a wide range of periastron distances and mass ratios between the mass of the perturber and central star, we find that despite the prograde, coplanar encounters having the strongest effect on the disk size, inclined and even the least destructive retrograde encounters mostly also have a considerable effect, especially for close periastron passages. Interestingly, we find a nearly linear dependence of the disk size on the orbital inclination for the prograde encounters, but not for the retrograde case. We also determine the final orbital parameters of the particles in the disk such as eccentricities, inclinations, and semi-major axes. Using this information the presented study can be used to describe the fate of disks and also that of planetary systems after inclined encounters.

Vector is the general format of input data of most algorithms. Designing unitary operation to load all information of vector into quantum registers of quantum CPU from classical memory is called quantum loading scheme (QLS). QLS assembles classical memory and quantum CPU as a whole computer, which will be important for further quantum computation. We present a QLS based on path interference with time complexity O(logN), while classical loading scheme has time complexity O(N), that is the efficiency bottleneck of classical computer.

The evidence of strong coupling between plasmons and molecular excitons for plasmonic nanoparticle (NP) dimers exhibiting ultra-sensitive surface enhanced resonant Raman scattering is the observation of anti-crossing in the coupled resonance. However, it is not easy to experimentally tune plasmon resonance of such dimers for the observation. In this work, we theoretically investigate the anti-crossing properties of the dimers coated by the thin dye films with thicknesses greater than 0.1 nm and gap distances larger than 1.2 nm according to the principles of classical electromagnetism. The plasmon resonance spectra of these dimers are strongly affected by their coupling with the exciton resonance of dye molecules. A comparison of the film thickness dependences of dimer spectral changes with those of silver ellipsoidal NPs indicates that the dipole plasmons localized in the dimer gap are coupled with molecular excitons of the film much stronger than the dipole plasmons of ellipsoidal NPs. Furthermore, the anti-crossing of coupled resonances is investigated while tuning plasmon resonance by changing the morphology and refractive index of the surrounding medium. The spectral changes observed for ellipsoidal NPs clearly exhibit anti-crossing properties; however, the anti-crossing behavior of dimers is more complex due to the strong coupling of dipoles and higher order plasmons with multiple molecular excitons. We find that the anti-crossing for dimers is clearly confirmed by the refractive index dependence of coupled resonance.

In previous work by the first and third author with Matthew Baker, a family of bijections between bases of a regular matroid and the Jacobian group of the matroid was given. The core of the work is a geometric construction using zonotopal tilings that produces bijections between the bases of a realizable oriented matroid and the set of $(\sigma,\sigma^*)$-compatible orientations with respect to some acyclic circuit (respectively, cocircuit) signature $\sigma$ (respectively, $\sigma^*$). In this work, we extend this construction to general oriented matroids and circuit (respectively, cocircuit) signatures coming from generic single-element liftings (respectively, extensions). As a corollary, when both signatures are induced by the same lexicographic data, we give a new (bijective) proof of the interpretation of $T_M(1,1)$ using orientation activity due to Gioan and Las Vergnas. Here $T_M(x,y)$ is the Tutte polynomial of the matroid.

Finite mixtures of regressions with fixed covariates are a commonly used model-based clustering methodology to deal with regression data. However, they assume assignment independence, i.e. the allocation of data points to the clusters is made independently of the distribution of the covariates. In order to take into account the latter aspect, finite mixtures of regressions with random covariates, also known as cluster-weighted models (CWMs), have been proposed in the univariate and multivariate literature. In this paper, the CWM is extended to matrix data, e.g. those data where a set of variables are simultaneously observed at different time points or locations. Specifically, the cluster-specific marginal distribution of the covariates, and the cluster-specific conditional distribution of the responses given the covariates, are assumed to be matrix normal. Maximum likelihood parameter estimates are derived using an ECM algorithm. Parameter recovery, classification assessment and the capability of the BIC to detect the underlying groups are analyzed on simulated data. Finally, two real data applications concerning educational indicators and the Italian non-life insurance market are presented.

In this work we present an adaptive Newton-type method to solve nonlinear constrained optimization problems in which the constraint is a system of partial differential equations discretized by the finite element method. The adaptive strategy is based on a goal-oriented a posteriori error estimation for the discretization and for the iteration error. The iteration error stems from an inexact solution of the nonlinear system of first order optimality conditions by the Newton-type method. This strategy allows to balance the two errors and to derive effective stopping criteria for the Newton-iterations. The algorithm proceeds with the search of the optimal point on coarse grids which are refined only if the discretization error becomes dominant. Using computable error indicators the mesh is refined locally leading to a highly efficient solution process. The performance of the algorithm is shown with several examples and in particular with an application in the neurosciences: the optimal electrode design for the study of neuronal networks.

In this work, we study long-time wave transport in correlated and uncorrelated disordered 2D arrays. When a separation of dimensions is applied to the model, we find that the predicted 1D random dimer phenomenology also appears in so-called pseudo-2D arrays. Therefore, a threshold behavior is observed in terms of the effective size for eigenmodes, as well as in long-time dynam- ics. For this threshold behavior to be observed a minimum system size is required, what is very important when considering a possible experimental realization. For the long-time evolution, we find that for short-range correlated lattices a super-diffusive long-range transport is observed, while for completely uncorrelated disorder in 2D transport becomes sub-diffusive within the localization length and random binary pseudo-2D arrays show localization.

We study AKSZ-type BV constructions for the topological A- and B-models within a double field theory formulation that incorporates backgrounds with geometric and non-geometric fluxes. We relate them to a Courant sigma-model, on an open membrane, corresponding to a generalized complex structure, which reduces to the A- or B-models on the boundary. We introduce S-duality at the level of the membrane sigma-model based on the generalized complex structure, which exchanges the related AKSZ field theories, and interpret it as topological S-duality of the A- and B-models. Our approach leads to new classes of Courant algebroids associated to (generalized) complex geometry.

The majority-voter model is studied by Monte Carlo simulations on hypercubic lattices of dimension $d=2$ to 7 with periodic boundary conditions. The critical exponents associated to the Finite-Size Scaling of the magnetic susceptibility are shown to be compatible with those of the Ising model. At dimension $d=4$, the numerical data are compatible with the presence of multiplicative logarithmic corrections. For $d\ge 5$,the estimates of the exponents are close to the prediction $d/2$ when taking into account the dangerous irrelevant variable at theGaussian fixed point. Moreover, the universal values of the Binder cumulant are also compatible with those of the Ising model. This indicates that the upper critical dimension of the majority-voter model is not $d_c=6$ as claimed in the literature, but $d_c=4$ like the equilibrium Ising model.

We show that the SU(2)_0 WZNW model has a hidden OSp(2|2)_{-2} symmetry. Both these theories are known to have logarithms in their correlation functions. We also show that, like OSp(2|2)_{-2}, the logarithmic structure present in the SU(2)_0 model is due to the underlying c=-2 sector. We also demonstrate that the quantum Hamiltonian reduction of SU(2)_0 leads very directly to the correlation functions of the c=-2 model. We also discuss some of the novel boundary effects which can take place in this model.

We also study the evolution of the different modes with the defect position, at zero external field. We study the stability of the solutions and derive simple arguments, that could help the defect characterization. In most cases a reentrant behavior is seen, where both a maximum and a minimum current exist.

The correlation of the fractionally represented hypercharge group with the isospin and colour group in the standard model determines as faithfully represented internal group the quotient group ${\U(1)\x\SU(2)\x\SU(3)\over\Z_2\x\Z_3}$. The discrete cyclic central abelian-nonabelian internal correlation involved is considered with respect to its consequences for the representations by the standard model fields, the electroweak mixing angle and the symmetry breakdown. There exists a further discrete $\Z_2$-correlation between chirality and Lorentz properties and also a continuous $\U(1)$-external-internal one between hyperisospin and chirality.

Boltzmann solvers are an important tool for the computation of cosmological observables in the linear regime. In the presence of massive neutrinos, they involve solving the Boltzmann equation followed by an integration in momentum space to arrive at the desired fluid properties, a procedure which is known to be computationally slow. In this work we introduce the so-called generalized Boltzmann hierarchy (GBH) for massive neutrinos in cosmology, an alternative to the usual Boltzmann hierarchy, where the momentum dependence is integrated out leaving us with a two-parameter infinite set of ordinary differential equations. Along with the usual expansion in multipoles, there is now also an expansion in higher velocity weight integrals of the distribution function. Using a toy code, we show that the GBH produces the density contrast neutrino transfer function to a $\lesssim 0.5\%$ accuracy at both large and intermediate scales compared to the neutrino free-streaming scale, thus providing a proof-of-principle for the GBH. We comment on the implementation of the GBH in a state of the art Boltzmann solver.

Schwarzites are 3D crystalline porous materials exhibiting the shape of Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (TPMS). They possess negative Gaussian curvature, created by the presence of rings with more than six sp2-hybridized carbon atoms. Recently, new routes to their synthesis have been proposed. Due to its foam-like structure, schwarzites are interesting for mechanical energy absorption applications. In this work, we investigate through fully atomistic reactive molecular dynamics the mechanical response under ballistic impacts of four structures from primitive (P) and gyroid (G) families (two structures within each family). The two structures in the same family differ mainly by the ratio of hexagons to octagons, where this ratio increases the 'flatness' of the structures. Although the penetration depth values are higher in the 'flatter' structures (P8bal and G8bal), the absorbed kinetic energy by them is considerably higher, which yields them a better energy-absorption performance.

We present a theory and accompanying importance sampling method for computing rate constants in spatially inhomogenious systems. Using the relationship between rate constants and path space partition functions, we illustrate that the relative change in the rate of a rare event through space is isomorphic to the calculation of a free energy difference, albeit in a trajectory ensemble. Like equilibrium free energies, relative rate constants can be estimated by importance sampling. An extension to transition path sampling is proposed that combines biased path ensembles and weighted histogram analysis to accomplish this estimate. We show that rate constants can also be decomposed into different contributions, including relative changes in stability, barrier height and flux. This decomposition provides a means of interpretation and insight into rare processes in complex environments. We verify these ideas with a simple model of diffusion with spatially varying diffusivity and illustrate their utility in an atomistic model of ion pair dissociation near an electrochemical interface.

Jets and their substructure play a central role in many analyses at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). To improve the precision of measurements, as well as to enable measurement of jet substructure at increasingly small angular scales, tracking information is often used due to its superior angular resolution and robustness to pile-up. Calculations of track-based observables involve non-perturbative track functions, that absorb infrared divergences in perturbative calculations and describe the transition to charged hadrons. The infrared divergences are directly related to the renormalization group evolution (RGE), and can be systematically computed in perturbation theory. Unlike the standard DGLAP evolution, the RGE of the track functions is non-linear, encoding correlations in the fragmentation process. We compute the next-to-leading order (NLO) evolution of the track functions, which involves in its kernel the full $1\rightarrow3$ splitting function. We discuss in detail how how we implement the evolution equation numerically, and illustrate the size of the NLO corrections. We also show that our equation can be viewed as a master equation for collinear evolution at NLO, by illustrating that by integrating out specific terms, one can derive the evolution for any $N$-hadron fragmentation function. Our results provide a crucial ingredient for obtaining track-based predictions for generic measurements at the LHC, and for improving the description of the collinear dynamics of jets.

In supervised learning - for instance in image classification - modern massive datasets are commonly labeled by a crowd of workers. The obtained labels in this crowdsourcing setting are then aggregated for training. The aggregation step generally leverages a per-worker trust score. Yet, such worker-centric approaches discard each task's ambiguity. Some intrinsically ambiguous tasks might even fool expert workers, which could eventually be harmful to the learning step. In a standard supervised learning setting - with one label per task - the Area Under the Margin (AUM) is tailored to identify mislabeled data. We adapt the AUM to identify ambiguous tasks in crowdsourced learning scenarios, introducing the Weighted AUM (WAUM). The WAUM is an average of AUMs weighted by task-dependent scores. We show that the WAUM can help discard ambiguous tasks from the training set, leading to better generalization or calibration performance. We report improvements over existing strategies for learning a crowd, both for simulated settings and for the CIFAR-10H, LabelMe and Music crowdsourced datasets.

We model d-wave ceramic superconductors with a three-dimensional lattice of randomly distributed $\pi$ Josephson junctions with finite self-inductance. The linear and nonlinear ac resistivity of the d-wave ceramic superconductors is obtained as function of temperature by solving the corresponding Langevin dynamical equations. We find that the linear ac resistivity remains finite at the temperature $T_p$ where the third harmonics of resistivity has a peak. The current amplitude dependence of the nonlinear resistivity at the peak position is found to be a power law. These results agree qualitatively with experiments. We also show that the peak of the nonlinear resistivity is related to the onset of the paramagnetic Meissner effect which occurs at the crossover temperature $T_p$, which is above the chiral glass transition temperature $T_{cg}$.

Trust and reputation models for distributed, collaborative systems have been studied and applied in several domains, in order to stimulate cooperation while preventing selfish and malicious behaviors. Nonetheless, such models have received less attention in the process of specifying and analyzing formally the functionalities of the systems mentioned above. The objective of this paper is to define a process algebraic framework for the modeling of systems that use (i) trust and reputation to govern the interactions among nodes, and (ii) communication models characterized by a high level of adaptiveness and flexibility. Hence, we propose a formalism for verifying, through model checking techniques, the robustness of these systems with respect to the typical attacks conducted against webs of trust.

Recently, unsupervised person re-identification (Re-ID) has received increasing research attention due to its potential for label-free applications. A promising way to address unsupervised Re-ID is clustering-based, which generates pseudo labels by clustering and uses the pseudo labels to train a Re-ID model iteratively. However, most clustering-based methods take each cluster as a pseudo identity class, neglecting the intra-cluster variance mainly caused by the change of cameras. To address this issue, we propose to split each single cluster into multiple proxies according to camera views. The camera-aware proxies explicitly capture local structures within clusters, by which the intra-ID variance and inter-ID similarity can be better tackled. Assisted with the camera-aware proxies, we design two proxy-level contrastive learning losses that are, respectively, based on offline and online association results. The offline association directly associates proxies according to the clustering and splitting results, while the online strategy dynamically associates proxies in terms of up-to-date features to reduce the noise caused by the delayed update of pseudo labels. The combination of two losses enables us to train a desirable Re-ID model. Extensive experiments on three person Re-ID datasets and one vehicle Re-ID dataset show that our proposed approach demonstrates competitive performance with state-of-the-art methods.
