The development of room-temperature sensing devices for detecting small concentrations of molecular species is imperative for a wide range of low-power sensor applications. We demonstrate a room-temperature, highly sensitive, selective, and reversible chemical sensor based on a monolayer of the transition metal dichalcogenide Re0.5Nb0.5S2. The sensing device exhibits thickness dependent carrier type, and upon exposure to NO2 molecules, its electrical resistance considerably increases or decreases depending on the layer number. The sensor is selective to NO2 with only minimal response to other gases such as NH3, CH2O, and CO2. In the presence of humidity, not only are the sensing properties not deteriorated, but also the monolayer sensor shows complete reversibility with fast recovery at room temperature. We present a theoretical analysis of the sensing platform and identify the atomically-sensitive transduction mechanism.

Encouraged by the observation of the pentaquark states $P^+_c(4380)$ and $P^+_c(4450)$, we propose a novel color flux-tube structure, pentagonal state, for pentaquark states within the framework of color flux-tube mode involving a five-body confinement potential. Numerical results on the heavy pentaquark states indicate that the states with three color flux-tube structures, diquark, octet and pentagonal structures, have the close masses, which can therefore be called QCD isomers analogous to isomers in Chemistry. The pentagonal structure has lowest energy. The state $P^+_c(4380)$ can be described as the compact pentaquark state $uudc\bar{c}$ with the pentagonal structure and $J^P=\frac{3}{2}^-$ in the color flux-tube model. The state $P^+_c(4450)$ can not be accommodated into the color flux-tube model. The heavy pentaquark states $uudc\bar{b}$, $uudb\bar{c}$ and $uudb\bar{b}$ are predicted in the color flux-tube model. The five-body confinement potential basing on the color flux-tube picture as a collective degree of freedom is a dynamical mechanism in the formation of the compact heavy pentaquark states.

Autoamplification and competition drive symmetry breaking: Initiation of centriole duplication by the PLK4-STIL network

Symmetry breaking, a central principle of physics, has been hailed as the driver of self-organization in biological systems in general and biogenesis of cellular organelles in particular, but the molecular mechanisms of symmetry breaking only begin to become understood. Centrioles, the structural cores of centrosomes and cilia, must duplicate every cell cycle to ensure their faithful inheritance through cellular divisions. Work in model organisms identified conserved proteins required for centriole duplication and found that altering their abundance affects centriole number. However, the biophysical principles that ensure that, under physiological conditions, only a single procentriole is produced on each mother centriole remain enigmatic. Here we propose a mechanistic biophysical model for the initiation of procentriole formation in mammalian cells. The model faithfully recapitulates the experimentally observed transition from PLK4 uniformly distributed around the mother centriole, the "ring", to a unique PLK4 focus, the "spot", that triggers the assembly of a new procentriole. This symmetry breaking requires a dual positive feedback based on autocatalytic activation of PLK4 and enhanced centriolar anchoring of PLK4-STIL complexes by phosphorylated STIL. We find that, contrary to previous proposals, in situ degradation of active PLK4 is insufficient to break symmetry. Instead, the model predicts that competition between transient PLK4 activity maxima for PLK4-STIL complexes explains both the instability of the PLK4 ring and formation of the unique PLK4 spot. In the model, strong competition at physiologically normal parameters robustly produces a single procentriole, while increasing overexpression of PLK4 and STIL weakens the competition and causes progressive addition of procentrioles in agreement with experimental observations.

It has been shown recently that there exist analytical solutions of the Yang-Mills equations for non-Abelian Weizs\"acker-Williams fields which describe the distribution of gluons in large nuclei at small x. These solutions however depend on the color charge distribution at large rapidities. We here construct a model of the color charge distribution of partons in the fragmentation region and use it to compute the boost covariant momentum distributions of wee gluons. The phenomenological applications of our results are discussed.

Predicting the spread and containment of COVID-19 is a challenge of utmost importance that the broader scientific community is currently facing. One of the main sources of difficulty is that a very limited amount of daily COVID-19 case data is available, and with few exceptions, the majority of countries are currently in the "exponential spread stage," and thus there is scarce information available which would enable one to predict the phase transition between spread and containment. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to predicting the spread of COVID-19 based on dictionary learning and online nonnegative matrix factorization (online NMF). The key idea is to learn dictionary patterns of short evolution instances of the new daily cases in multiple countries at the same time, so that their latent correlation structures are captured in the dictionary patterns. We first learn such patterns by minibatch learning from the entire time-series and then further adapt them to the time-series by online NMF. As we progressively adapt and improve the learned dictionary patterns to the more recent observations, we also use them to make one-step predictions by the partial fitting. Lastly, by recursively applying the one-step predictions, we can extrapolate our predictions into the near future. Our prediction results can be directly attributed to the learned dictionary patterns due to their interpretability.

We calculate effective potentials in scalar field theories on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave background in ten dimensions. For this purpose we have to work in the light-cone formulation, and hence we introduce two methods to compute them in the light-cone frame. One is to use the Yan's formula for evaluating one-loop correction terms. The other is to introduce a cut-off for the light-cone momentum. These methods are also confirmed in the case of Minkowski spacetime.

Proximal alternating minimization and projection methods for nonconvex problems. An approach based on the Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz inequality

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
We study the convergence properties of an alternating proximal minimization algorithm for nonconvex structured functions of the type: $L(x,y)=f(x)+Q(x,y)+g(y)$, where $f:\R^n\rightarrow\R\cup{+\infty}$ and $g:\R^m\rightarrow\R\cup{+\infty}$ are proper lower semicontinuous functions, and $Q:\R^n\times\R^m\rightarrow \R$ is a smooth $C^1$ function which couples the variables $x$ and $y$. The algorithm can be viewed as a proximal regularization of the usual Gauss-Seidel method to minimize $L$. We work in a nonconvex setting, just assuming that the function $L$ satisfies the Kurdyka-\L ojasiewicz inequality. An entire section illustrates the relevancy of such an assumption by giving examples ranging from semialgebraic geometry to "metrically regular" problems. Our main result can be stated as follows: If L has the Kurdyka-\L ojasiewicz property, then each bounded sequence generated by the algorithm converges to a critical point of $L$. This result is completed by the study of the convergence rate of the algorithm, which depends on the geometrical properties of the function $L$ around its critical points. When specialized to $Q(x,y)=|x-y|^2$ and to $f$, $g$ indicator functions, the algorithm is an alternating projection mehod (a variant of Von Neumann's) that converges for a wide class of sets including semialgebraic and tame sets, transverse smooth manifolds or sets with "regular" intersection. In order to illustrate our results with concrete problems, we provide a convergent proximal reweighted $\ell^1$ algorithm for compressive sensing and an application to rank reduction problems.

In this paper, complex Ginzburg-Landau (CGL) equations governed by p-Laplacian are studied. We discuss the global existence of solutions for the initial-boundary value problem of the equation in general domains. The global solvability of the initial-boundary value problem for the case when $p = 2$ is already examined by several authors provided that parameters appearing in CGL equations satisfy a suitable condition. Our approach to CGL equations is based on the theory of parabolic equations with non-monotone perturbations. By using this method together with some approximate procedure and a diagonal argument, the global solvability is shown without assuming any growth conditions on the nonlinear terms.

This article aims at providing a self-contained introduction to theoretical modeling of gate-induced carrier density in graphene sheets. For this, relevant theories are introduced, namely, classical capacitance model (CCM), self-consistent Poisson-Dirac method (PDM), and quantum capacitance model (QCM). The usage of Matlab pdetool is also briefly introduced, pointing out the least knowledge required for using this tool to solve the present electrostatic problem. Results based on the three approaches are compared, showing that the quantum correction, which is not considered by the CCM but by the other two, plays a role only when the metal gate is exceedingly close to the graphene sheet, and that the exactly solvable QCM works equally well as the self-consistent PDM. Practical examples corresponding to realistic experimental conditions for generating graphene pnp junctions and superlattices, as well as how a background potential linear in position can be achieved in graphene, are shown to illustrate the applicability of the introduced methods. Furthermore, by treating metal contacts in the same way, the last example shows that the PDM and the QCM are able to resolve the contact-induced doping and screening potential, well agreeing with the previous first-principles studies.

The computational costs of inference and planning have confined Bayesian model-based reinforcement learning to one of two dismal fates: powerful Bayes-adaptive planning but only for simplistic models, or powerful, Bayesian non-parametric models but using simple, myopic planning strategies such as Thompson sampling. We ask whether it is feasible and truly beneficial to combine rich probabilistic models with a closer approximation to fully Bayesian planning. First, we use a collection of counterexamples to show formal problems with the over-optimism inherent in Thompson sampling. Then we leverage state-of-the-art techniques in efficient Bayes-adaptive planning and non-parametric Bayesian methods to perform qualitatively better than both existing conventional algorithms and Thompson sampling on two contextual bandit-like problems.

Epidemic processes on self-propelled particles: continuum and agent-based modelling

Most spreading processes require spatial proximity between agents. The stationary state of spreading dynamics in a population of mobile agents thus depends on the interplay between the time and length scales involved in the epidemic process and their motion in space. We analyze the steady properties resulting from such interplay in a simple model describing epidemic spreading (modeled as a Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible process) on self-propelled particles (performing Run-and-Tumble motion). Focusing our attention on the diffusive long-time regime, we find that the agents' motion changes qualitatively the nature of the epidemic transition characterized by the emergence of a macroscopic fraction of infected agents. Indeed, the transition becomes of the mean-field type for agents diffusing in one, two and three dimensions, while, in the absence of motion, the epidemic outbreak depends on the dimension of the underlying static network determined by the agents' fixed locations. The insights obtained from a continuum description of the system are validated by numerical simulations of an agent-based model. Our work aims at bridging soft active matter physics and theoretical epidemiology, and may be of interest for researchers in both communities.

We present an analogue of G\"{o}del's second incompleteness theorem for systems of second-order arithmetic. Whereas G\"{o}del showed that sufficiently strong theories that are $\Pi^0_1$-sound and $\Sigma^0_1$-definable do not prove their own $\Pi^0_1$-soundness, we prove that sufficiently strong theories that are $\Pi^1_1$-sound and $\Sigma^1_1$-definable do not prove their own $\Pi^1_1$-soundness. Our proof does not involve the construction of a self-referential sentence but rather relies on ordinal analysis.

In the early 1980's the author proved G.W. Whitehead's conjecture about stable homotopy groups and symmetric products. In the mid 1990's, Arone and Mahowald showed that the Goodwillie tower of the identity had remarkably good properties when specialized to odd dimensional spheres. In this paper we prove that these results are linked, as has been long suspected. We give a state-of-the-art proof of the Whitehead conjecture valid for all primes, and simultaneously show that the identity tower specialized to the circle collapses in the expected sense. Key to our work is that Steenrod algebra module maps between the primitives in the mod p homology of certain infinite loopspaces are determined by elements in the mod p Hecke algebras of type A. Certain maps between spaces are shown to be chain homotopy contractions by using identities in these Hecke algebras.

Usage control models provide an integration of access control, digital rights, and trust management. To achieve this integration, usage control models support additional concepts such as attribute mutability and continuity of decision. However, these concepts may introduce an additional level of complexity to the underlying model, rendering its definition a cumbersome and prone to errors process. Applying a formal verification technique allows for a rigorous analysis of the interactions amongst the components, and thus for formal guarantees in respect of the correctness of a model. In this paper, we elaborate on a case study, where we express the high-level functional model of the UseCON usage control model in the TLA+ formal specification language, and verify its correctness for <=12 uses in both of its supporting authorisation models.

We study the intrinsic superconductivity in a dissipative Floquet electronic system in the presence of attractive interactions. Based on the functional Keldysh theory beyond the mean-field treatment, we find that the system shows a time-periodic bosonic condensation and reaches an intrinsic dissipative Floquet superconducting (SC) phase. Due to the interplay between dissipations and periodic modulations, the Floquet SC gap becomes "soft" and contains the diffusive fermionic modes with finite lifetimes. However, bosonic modes of the bosonic condensation are still propagating even in the presence of dissipations.

Eigenstates and energy levels of a square quantum billiard in a magnetic field, or with an Aharonov-Bohm flux line, are found in quasiclassical approximation, that is, for high enough energy. Explicit formulas for the energy levels and wavefunctions are found. There are localized states, never before noticed in this well studied problem, whose localization is due to phase interference, even though there is no or negligible classical effect of the magnetic field. These and related states account almost entirely for the magnetic response in certain temperature ranges, and thus have a bearing on the experiments of Levy et al.

Resonant laser scattering along with photon correlation measurements have established the atom-like character of quantum dots. Here, we present measurements which challenge this identification for a wide range of experimental parameters: the absorption lineshapes that we measure at magnetic fields exceeding 1 Tesla indicate that the nuclear spins polarize by an amount that ensures locking of the quantum dot resonances to the incident laser frequency. In contrast to earlier experiments, this nuclear spin polarization is bi-directional, allowing the electron+nuclear spin system to track the changes in laser frequency dynamically on both sides of the quantum dot resonance. Our measurements reveal that the confluence of the laser excitation and nuclear spin polarization suppresses the fluctuations in the resonant absorption signal. A master equation analysis shows narrowing of the nuclear Overhauser field variance, pointing to potential applications in quantum information processing.

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are representative models of artificial neural networks (ANNs), that form the backbone of modern computer vision. However, the considerable power consumption and limited computing speed of electrical computing platforms restrict further development of CNNs. Optical neural networks are considered the next-generation physical implementations of ANNs to break the bottleneck. This study proposes a spectral convolutional neural network (SCNN) with the function of matter meta-imaging, namely identifying the composition of matter and mapping its distribution in space. This SCNN includes an optical convolutional layer (OCL) and a reconfigurable electrical backend. The OCL is implemented by integrating very large-scale, pixel-aligned metasurfaces on a CMOS image sensor, which accepts 3D raw datacubes of natural images, containing two-spatial and one-spectral dimensions, at megapixels directly as input to realize the matter meta-imaging. This unique optoelectronic framework empowers in-sensor optical analog computing at extremely high energy efficiency eliminating the need for coherent light sources and greatly reducing the computing load of the electrical backend. We employed the SCNN framework on several real-world complex tasks. It achieved accuracies of 96.4% and 100% for pathological diagnosis and real-time face anti-spoofing at video rate, respectively. The SCNN framework, with an unprecedented new function of substance identification, provides a feasible optoelectronic and integrated optical CNN implementation for edge devices or cellphones with limited computing capabilities, facilitating diverse applications, such as intelligent robotics, industrial automation, medical diagnosis, and astronomy.

The existence of a die-out threshold (different from the classic disease-invasion one) defining a region of slow extinction of an epidemic has been proved elsewhere for susceptible-aware-infectious-susceptible models without awareness decay, through bifurcation analysis. By means of an equivalent mean-field model defined on regular random networks, we interpret the dynamics of the system in this region and prove that the existence of bifurcation for this second epidemic threshold crucially depends on the absence of awareness decay. We show that the continuum of equilibria that characterizes the slow die-out dynamics collapses into a unique equilibrium when a constant rate of awareness decay is assumed, no matter how small, and that the resulting bifurcation from the disease-free equilibrium is equivalent to that of standard epidemic models. We illustrate these findings with continuous-time stochastic simulations on regular random networks with different degrees. Finally, the behaviour of solutions with and without decay in awareness is compared around the second epidemic threshold for a small rate of awareness decay.

In a companion paper we have reported a $>5\sigma$ detection of degree scale $B $-mode polarization at 150 GHz by the BICEP2 experiment. Here we provide a detailed study of potential instrumental systematic contamination to that measurement. We focus extensively on spurious polarization that can potentially arise from beam imperfections. We present a heuristic classification of beam imperfections according to their symmetries and uniformities, and discuss how resulting contamination adds or cancels in maps that combine observations made at multiple orientations of the telescope about its boresight axis. We introduce a technique, which we call "deprojection", for filtering the leading order beam-induced contamination from time ordered data, and show that it removes power from BICEP2's $BB$ spectrum consistent with predictions using high signal-to-noise beam shape measurements. We detail the simulation pipeline that we use to directly simulate instrumental systematics and the calibration data used as input to that pipeline. Finally, we present the constraints on $BB$ contamination from individual sources of potential systematics. We find that systematics contribute $BB$ power that is a factor $\sim10\times$ below BICEP2's 3-year statistical uncertainty, and negligible compared to the observed $BB$ signal. The contribution to the best-fit tensor/scalar ratio is at a level equivalent to $r=(3-6)\times10^{-3}$.

We discuss a method to study free protons and neutrons using $\nu(\bar \nu)$-hydrogen (H) Charged Current (CC) inelastic interactions, together with various precision tests of the isospin (charge) symmetry using $\nu$ and $\bar \nu$ CC interactions on both H and nuclear targets. Probing free nucleons with (anti)neutrinos provides information about their partonic structure, as well as a crucial input for the modeling of $\nu(\bar\nu)$-nucleus (A) interactions. Such measurements can also represent a tool to address some of the limitations of accelerator-based neutrino scattering experiments on nuclear targets, originating from the combined effect of the unknown (anti)neutrino energy and of the nuclear smearing. We also discuss a method to impose constraints on nuclear effects and calibrate the (anti)neutrino energy scale in $\nu(\bar \nu)$-A interactions, which are two outstanding systematic uncertainties affecting present and future long-baseline neutrino experiments.

Compressive spectral imaging enables to reconstruct the entire three-dimensional (3D) spectral cube from a few multiplexed images. Here, we develop a novel compressive spectral imaging technique using diffractive lenses. Our technique uses a coded aperture to spatially modulate the optical field from the scene and a diffractive lens such as a photon-sieve for dispersion. The coded field is passed through the diffractive lens and then measured at a few planes using a monochrome detector. The 3D spectral cube is then reconstructed from these highly compressed measurements through sparse recovery. A fast sparse recovery method is developed to solve this large-scale inverse problem. The imaging performance is illustrated at visible regime for various scenarios with different compression ratios through numerical simulations. The results demonstrate that promising reconstruction performance can be achieved with as little as two measurements. This opens up new possibilities for high resolution spectral imaging with low-cost and simple designs.

Chapter 13 in High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) : Preliminary Design Report. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is one of the largest scientific instruments ever built. Since opening up a new energy frontier for exploration in 2010, it has gathered a global user community of about 7,000 scientists working in fundamental particle physics and the physics of hadronic matter at extreme temperature and density. To sustain and extend its discovery potential, the LHC will need a major upgrade in the 2020s. This will increase its luminosity (rate of collisions) by a factor of five beyond the original design value and the integrated luminosity (total collisions created) by a factor ten. The LHC is already a highly complex and exquisitely optimised machine so this upgrade must be carefully conceived and will require about ten years to implement. The new configuration, known as High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), will rely on a number of key innovations that push accelerator technology beyond its present limits. Among these are cutting-edge 11-12 tesla superconducting magnets, compact superconducting cavities for beam rotation with ultra-precise phase control, new technology and physical processes for beam collimation and 300 metre-long high-power superconducting links with negligible energy dissipation. The present document describes the technologies and components that will be used to realise the project and is intended to serve as the basis for the detailed engineering design of HL-LHC.

One of the most dramatic discoveries made with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer is that many accreting neutron stars in low-mass binary systems produce strong, remarkably coherent, high-frequency X-ray brightness oscillations. The 325-1200 Hz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) observed in the accretion-powered emission are thought to be produced by gas orbiting very close to the neutron star, whereas the 360-600 Hz brightness oscillations seen during thermonuclear X-ray bursts are produced by one or two hot spots rotating with the star and have frequencies equal to the stellar spin frequency or its first overtone. The oscillations constrain the masses and radii of these neutron stars, which are thought to be the progenitors of the millisecond pulsars. Modeling indicates that the stars have spin frequencies 250-350 Hz and magnetic fields 1e7-5e9 G.

We present a set of model-free, reduced-dimensional reinforcement learning (RL) based optimal control designs for linear time-invariant singularly perturbed (SP) systems. We first present a state-feedback and output-feedback based RL control design for a generic SP system with unknown state and input matrices. We take advantage of the underlying time-scale separation property of the plant to learn a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) for only its slow dynamics, thereby saving a significant amount of learning time compared to the conventional full-dimensional RL controller. We analyze the sub-optimality of the design using SP approximation theorems and provide sufficient conditions for closed-loop stability. Thereafter, we extend both designs to clustered multi-agent consensus networks, where the SP property reflects through clustering. We develop both centralized and cluster-wise block-decentralized RL controllers for such networks, in reduced dimensions. We demonstrate the details of the implementation of these controllers using simulations of relevant numerical examples and compare them with conventional RL designs to show the computational benefits of our approach.

We present a study of the strong coupling between radiation and matter, considering a system of two quantum dots, which are in mutual interaction and interacting with a single mode of light confined in a semiconductor nanocavity. We take into account dissipative mechanisms such as the escape of the cavity photons, decay of the quantum dot excitons by spontaneous emission, and independent exciton pumping. It is shown that the mutual interaction between the dots can be measured off-resonance, only if the strong coupling condition is reached. Using the quantum regression theorem, a reasonable definition of the dynamical coupling regimes is introduced in terms of the complex Rabi frequency. Finally, the emission spectrum for relevant conditions is presented and compared with the above definition, demonstrating that the interaction between the excitons does not affect the Strong Coupling.

We recall and update, both theoretically and phenomenologically, our (nearly) forty-years-old proposal of a string-junction as a necessary complement to the conventional classification of hadrons based just on their quark-antiquark constituents. In that proposal single (though in general metastable) hadronic states are associated with "irreducible" gauge-invariant operators consisting of Wilson lines (visualized as strings of color flux tubes) that may either end on a quark or an antiquark, or annihilate in triplets at a junction $J$ or an anti-junction $\bar{J}$. For the junction-free sector (ordinary $q\, \bar{q}$ mesons and glueballs) the picture is supported by large-$N$ (number of colors) considerations as well as by a lattice strong-coupling expansion. Both imply the famous OZI rule suppressing quark-antiquark annihilation diagrams. For hadrons with $J$ and/or $\bar{J}$ constituents the same expansions support our proposal, including its generalization of the OZI rule to the suppression of $J-\bar{J}$ annihilation diagrams. Such a rule implies that hadrons with junctions are "mesophobic" and thus unusually narrow if they are below threshold for decaying into as many baryons as their total number of junctions (two for a tetraquark, three for a pentaquark). Experimental support for our claim, based on the observation that narrow multiquark states typically lie below (well above) the relevant baryonic (mesonic) thresholds, will be presented.

We also obtain the best bound for the degrees of splitting fields of tori.

AI-based systems are software systems with functionalities enabled by at least one AI component (e.g., for image- and speech-recognition, and autonomous driving). AI-based systems are becoming pervasive in society due to advances in AI. However, there is limited synthesized knowledge on Software Engineering (SE) approaches for building, operating, and maintaining AI-based systems. To collect and analyze state-of-the-art knowledge about SE for AI-based systems, we conducted a systematic mapping study. We considered 248 studies published between January 2010 and March 2020. SE for AI-based systems is an emerging research area, where more than 2/3 of the studies have been published since 2018. The most studied properties of AI-based systems are dependability and safety. We identified multiple SE approaches for AI-based systems, which we classified according to the SWEBOK areas. Studies related to software testing and software quality are very prevalent, while areas like software maintenance seem neglected. Data-related issues are the most recurrent challenges. Our results are valuable for: researchers, to quickly understand the state of the art and learn which topics need more research; practitioners, to learn about the approaches and challenges that SE entails for AI-based systems; and, educators, to bridge the gap among SE and AI in their curricula.

To improve the discriminative and generalization ability of lightweight network for face recognition, we propose an efficient variable group convolutional network called VarGFaceNet. Variable group convolution is introduced by VarGNet to solve the conflict between small computational cost and the unbalance of computational intensity inside a block. We employ variable group convolution to design our network which can support large scale face identification while reduce computational cost and parameters. Specifically, we use a head setting to reserve essential information at the start of the network and propose a particular embedding setting to reduce parameters of fully-connected layer for embedding. To enhance interpretation ability, we employ an equivalence of angular distillation loss to guide our lightweight network and we apply recursive knowledge distillation to relieve the discrepancy between the teacher model and the student model.

Continuous collection of physiological data from wearable sensors enables temporal characterization of individual behaviors. Understanding the relation between an individual's behavioral patterns and psychological states can help identify strategies to improve quality of life. One challenge in analyzing physiological data is extracting the underlying behavioral states from the temporal sensor signals and interpreting them. Here, we use a non-parametric Bayesian approach to model sensor data from multiple people and discover the dynamic behaviors they share. We apply this method to data collected from sensors worn by a population of hospital workers and show that the learned states can cluster participants into meaningful groups and better predict their cognitive and psychological states. This method offers a way to learn interpretable compact behavioral representations from multivariate sensor signals.

We propose an in silico molecular associative memory model for pattern learning, storage and denoising using Pairwise Markov Random Field (PMRF) model. Our PMRF-based molecular associative memory model extracts locally distributed features from the exposed examples, learns and stores the patterns in the molecular associative memory and denoises the given noisy patterns via DNA computation based operations. Thus, our computational molecular model demonstrates the functionalities of content-addressability of human memory. Our molecular simulation results show that the averaged mean squared error between the learned and denoised patterns are low (< 0.014) up to 30% of noise.

Remaining useful life prediction (RUL) is one of the key technologies of condition-based maintenance, which is important to maintain the reliability and safety of industrial equipments. Massive industrial measurement data has effectively improved the performance of the data-driven based RUL prediction method. While deep learning has achieved great success in RUL prediction, existing methods have difficulties in processing long sequences and extracting information from the sensor and time step aspects. In this paper, we propose Dual Aspect Self-attention based on Transformer (DAST), a novel deep RUL prediction method, which is an encoder-decoder structure purely based on self-attention without any RNN/CNN module. DAST consists of two encoders, which work in parallel to simultaneously extract features of different sensors and time steps. Solely based on self-attention, the DAST encoders are more effective in processing long data sequences, and are capable of adaptively learning to focus on more important parts of input. Moreover, the parallel feature extraction design avoids mutual influence of information from two aspects. Experiments on two widely used turbofan engines datasets show that our method significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art RUL prediction methods.

With the continuous growth of online 3D printing community and the democratization of 3D printers, growing number of users start sharing their own 3D designs on open platforms, enabling a wide audience to search, download, and 3D print models for free. Although sharing is mostly for altruistic reasons at first, open platforms had also created potential job opportunities to compensate creative labors. This paper analyzes new job opportunities emerged in online 3D printing social platforms and patterns of seeking compensations, and reveals various motivations for posting creative content online. We find that offering exclusive membership through subscriptions, selling final products or printing services through web stores, and using affiliate links are primary means of earning profits, while there exist gaps between creators' expectations and realities. We show that various socio-economic promises emerged, leading to a win-win situation for both creators to gain extra income and audiences to have access to more quality content. We also discuss future challenges that need to be addressed, such as ethical use of opensource content.

Testing and verifying imperfect multi-qubit quantum devices are important as such noisy quantum devices are widely available today. Bell inequalities are known useful for testing and verifying the quality of the quantum devices from their nonlocal quantum states and local measurements. There have been many experiments demonstrating the violations of Bell inequalities but they are limited in the number of qubits and the types of quantum states. We report violations of Bell inequalities on IBM Quantum devices based on the scalable and robust inequalities maximally violated by graph states as proposed by Baccari et al. (Ref.[1]). The violations are obtained from the quantum states of path graphs up to 57 and 21 qubits on the 65-qubit and 27-qubit IBM Quantum devices, respectively, and from those of star graphs up to 8 and 7 qubits with error mitigation on the same devices. We are able to show violations of the inequalities on various graph states by constructing low-depth quantum circuits producing them, and by applying the readout error mitigation technique. We also point out that quantum circuits for star graph states of size N can be realized with circuits of depth $O(\sqrt n)$ on subdivided honeycomb lattices which are the topology of the 65-qubit IBM Quantum device. Our experiments show encouraging results on the ability of existing quantum devices to prepare entangled quantum states, and provide experimental evidences on the benefit of scalable Bell inequalities for testing them.

Asteroseismic radii of dwarfs: New accuracy constraints from Gaia DR2 parallaxes

Precise stellar masses and radii can be determined using asteroseismology, but their accuracy must be tested against independent estimates. Using radii derived from Gaia DR2 parallaxes, we test the accuracy of asteroseismic radii for a sample of 93 dwarfs based on both individual frequency fitting and the seismic scaling relations. Radii from frequency fitting are about 1 per cent smaller than Gaia radii on average; however, this difference may be explained by a negative bias of 30 $\mu$as in the Gaia parallaxes. This indicates that the radii derived from frequency fitting are accurate to within 1 per cent. The scaling relations are found to overestimate radii by more than 5 per cent, compared to the Gaia radii, at the highest temperatures. We demonstrate that this offset is reduced to 3 per cent after applying corrections based on model frequencies to the scaling relation for $\Delta\nu$, but only when the model frequencies are corrected for the surface effect. With corrections to $\Delta\nu$, the scaling relation gives radii accurate to about 2--3 per cent for dwarfs in the temperature range $5400$--$6700$ K. The remaining offset at the highest temperatures may indicate the need for a correction to the scaling relation for $\nu_{\mathrm{max}}$.

If $F:\mathbf{D}\to \Sigma$ is a conformal harmonic parameterization of a minimal disk $\Sigma$, where $\mathbf{D}$ is the unit disk and $|\Sigma|=\pi R^2$, then $|F_x(z)|(1-|z|^2)\le R$. If for some $z$ the previous inequality is equality, then the surface is an affine disk, and $F$ is linear up to a M\"obius transformation of the unit disk.

Tuna and billfish are charismatic pelagic fishes attracting considerable scientific attention due to their ecophysiological and socioeconomic importance. However, the knowledge of their basin-wide spawning and larval habitats, especially in a warming ocean, is limited. We use the largest available dataset on tuna and billfish larvae in the Pacific Ocean to build a geostatistical species-distribution model with high explanatory power. The results reveal the spatial distribution of tuna and billfish larvae through all seasons across the Pacific. The model also identifies the optimal temperature ranges for nine major species and assesses the potential impact of ocean warming on larval distributions. We additionally present evidence that environmental variables, such as pH, phosphate concentration, and sea-surface height, exert secondary effects on larval distributions that warrant further investigation. Our findings make a quantum leap in understanding the ecophysiology of tuna and billfish, providing valuable information for future conservation efforts.

Despite its benefits for children's skill development and parent-child bonding, many parents do not often engage in interactive storytelling by having story-related dialogues with their child due to limited availability or challenges in coming up with appropriate questions. While recent advances made AI generation of questions from stories possible, the fully-automated approach excludes parent involvement, disregards educational goals, and underoptimizes for child engagement. Informed by need-finding interviews and participatory design (PD) results, we developed StoryBuddy, an AI-enabled system for parents to create interactive storytelling experiences. StoryBuddy's design highlighted the need for accommodating dynamic user needs between the desire for parent involvement and parent-child bonding and the goal of minimizing parent intervention when busy. The PD revealed varied assessment and educational goals of parents, which StoryBuddy addressed by supporting configuring question types and tracking child progress. A user study validated StoryBuddy's usability and suggested design insights for future parent-AI collaboration systems.

Variable Weak Hardy Spaces $W\!H_L^{p(\cdot)}({\mathbb R}^n)$ Associated with Operators Satisfying Davies-Gaffney Estimates

Let $p(\cdot):\ \mathbb R^n\to(0,1]$ be a variable exponent function satisfying the globally log-H\"older continuous condition and $L$ a one to one operator of type $\omega$ in $L^2({\mathbb R}^n)$, with $\omega\in[0,\,\pi/2)$, which has a bounded holomorphic functional calculus and satisfies the Davies-Gaffney estimates. In this article, the authors introduce the variable weak Hardy space $W\!H_L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$ associated with $L$ via the corresponding square function. Its molecular characterization is then established by means of the atomic decomposition of the variable weak tent space $W\!T^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$ which is also obtained in this article. In particular, when $L$ is non-negative and self-adjoint, the authors obtain the atomic characterization of $W\!H_L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$. As an application of the molecular characterization, when $L$ is the second-order divergence form elliptic operator with complex bounded measurable coefficient, the authors prove that the associated Riesz transform $\nabla L^{-1/2}$ is bounded from $W\!H_L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$ to the variable weak Hardy space $W\!H^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$. Moreover, when $L$ is non-negative and self-adjoint with the kernels of $\{e^{-tL}\}_{t>0}$ satisfying the Gauss upper bound estimates, the atomic characterization of $W\!H_L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$ is further used to characterize the space via non-tangential maximal functions.

In this paper we present the first published end-to-end production computer-vision system for powering city-scale shared augmented reality experiences on mobile devices. In doing so we propose a new formulation for an experience-based mapping framework as an effective solution to the key issues of city-scale SLAM scalability, robustness, map updates and all-time all-weather performance required by a production system. Furthermore, we propose an effective way of synchronising SLAM systems to deliver seamless real-time localisation of multiple edge devices at the same time. All this in the presence of network latency and bandwidth limitations. The resulting system is deployed and tested at scale in San Francisco where it delivers AR experiences in a mapped area of several hundred kilometers. To foster further development of this area we offer the data set to the public, constituting the largest of this kind to date.

We consider the possibility that most of the reflection component, observed in the hard X-ray spectra of Seyfert galaxies, could be formed on an extended medium, at large distance from the central source of primary radiation (e.g. on a torus). Then, the reflector cannot respond to the rapid fluctuations of the primary source. The observed reflected flux is controlled by the time-averaged primary spectrum rather than the instantaneous (observed) one. We show that this effect strongly influence the spectral fits parameters derived under the assumption of a reflection component consistent with the primary radiation. We find that a pivoting primary power-law spectrum with a nearly constant Comptonised luminosity may account for the reported correlation between the reflection amplitude $R$ and the spectral index $\Gamma$.

Studies of quantum computer implementations suggest cellular quantum computer architectures. These architectures can simulate the evolution of quantum cellular automata, which can possibly simulate both quantum and classical physical systems and processes. It is however known that except for the trivial case, unitary evolution of one-dimensional homogeneous quantum cellular automata with one qubit per cell is not possible. Quantum cellular automata that comprise two qubits per cell are defined and their evolution is studied using a quantum computer simulator. The evolution is unitary and its linearity manifests itself as a periodic structure in the probability distribution patterns.

We outline an interferometric scheme for the detection of bi-mode and multi-mode spatial entanglement of finite-temperature,interacting Bose gases of fixed particle number. Whether entanglement is present in the gas depends on the existence of the single-particle reduced density matrix between different regions of space. We apply the scheme to the problem of a harmonically trapped boson pair and show that while entanglement is rapidly decreasing with temperature, a significant amount remains for all interaction strengths at zero temperature.Thus, by tuning the interaction parameter, the distribution of entanglement between many spatial modes can be modified.

Let A be a nonassociative algebra such that the associator (A,A^2,A) vanishes. If A is freely generated by an element f, there are commuting derivations delta_n, n=1,2,..., such that delta_n(f) is a nonlinear homogeneous polynomial in f of degree n+1. We prove that the expressions delta_{n_1} ... delta_{n_k}(f) satisfy identities which are in correspondence with the equations of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy. As a consequence, solutions of the `nonassociative hierarchy' partial_{t_n}(f) = delta_n(f), n=1,2,..., of ordinary differential equations lead to solutions of the KP hierarchy. The framework is extended by introducing the notion of an A-module and constructing, with the help of the derivations delta_n, zero curvature connections and linear systems.

Resistive plate chambers (RPC) lined with $^{10}B_{4}$C neutron converters is a promising cost effective technology for position-sensitive thermal neutron detection capable to outperform $^{3}$He-based detectors in terms of spatial resolution and timing. However, as for the other types of gaseous detectors with a single layer of $^{10}B_{4}$C at normal beam incidence, the detection efficiency to thermal neutrons of a single-gap $^{10}B$-RPC is only about 6%. Aiming to overcome this limitation, we introduce a multi-layer $^{10}B$-RPCs detector with a stack of ten double-gap hybrid RPCs. A description of the detector design and the results of its characterization performed at the TREFF neutron beamline at the FRM II neutron facility are presented. The results demonstrate that the detection efficiency exceeds 60% for neutrons with a wavelength of 4.7 \r{A} and the spatial resolution (FWHM) is about 0.25 mm and 0.35 mm in the X and Y direction, respectively.

A model is described that relates the temperature coefficient of the optical absorption spectrum of pure water to the frequency derivative of that spectrum and two parameters that quantify the dependence of a peak's amplitude and its position on temperature. When applied to experimental temperature coefficients, it provides a better understanding of the process than the analysis currently in use.

We study the problem of multiple hypothesis testing (HT) in view of a rejection option. That model of HT has many different applications. Errors in testing of M hypotheses regarding the source distribution with an option of rejecting all those hypotheses are considered. The source is discrete and arbitrarily varying (AVS). The tradeoffs among error probability exponents/reliabilities associated with false acceptance of rejection decision and false rejection of true distribution are investigated and the optimal decision strategies are outlined. The main result is specialized for discrete memoryless sources (DMS) and studied further. An interesting insight that the analysis implies is the phenomenon (comprehensible in terms of supervised/unsupervised learning) that in optimal discrimination within M hypothetical distributions one permits always lower error than in deciding to decline the set of hypotheses. Geometric interpretations of the optimal decision schemes are given for the current and known bounds in multi-HT for AVS's.

We study the coevolutionary dynamics of the diversity of phenotype expression and the evolution of cooperation in the Prisoner's Dilemma game. Rather than pre-assigning zero-or-one interaction rate, we diversify the rate of interaction by associating it with the phenotypes shared in common. Individuals each carry a set of potentially expressible phenotypes and expresses a certain number of phenotypes at a cost proportional to the number. The number of expressed phenotypes and thus the rate of interaction is an evolvable trait. Our results show that nonnegligible cost of expressing phenotypes restrains phenotype expression, and the evolutionary race mainly proceeds on between cooperative strains and defective strains who express a very few phenotypes. It pays for cooperative strains to express a very few phenotypes. Though such a low level of expression weakens reciprocity between cooperative strains, it decelerates rate of interaction between cooperative strains and defective strains to a larger degree, leading to the predominance of cooperative strains over defective strains. We also find that evolved diversity of phenotype expression can occasionally destabilize due to the invasion of defective mutants, implying that cooperation and diversity of phenotype expression can mutually reinforce each other. Therefore, our results provide new insights into better understanding the coevolution of cooperation and the diversity of phenotype expression.

This work proposes algorithms for reconstruction of closed-loop pedestrian trajectories based on two foot-mounted inertial measurement units (IMU). The first proposed algorithm allows calculation of a trajectory using measurements from only one IMU. The second algorithm uses data from both foot-mounted IMUs simultaneously. Both algorithms are based on the Kalman filter and the assumption that while a foot is on the ground its velocity is supposed to be zero. Two methods for comparing the obtained trajectories are proposed, advantages and disadvantages of each method are indicated and a way to optimize the computation time is presented. In addition, a method is proposed for constructing one generalized trajectory of human motion based on the trajectories of each leg.

We analyze theoretically the Schrodinger-Poisson equation in two transverse dimensions in the presence of a Kerr term. The model describes the nonlinear propagation of optical beams in thermooptical media and can be regarded as an analogue system for a self-gravitating self-interacting wave. We compute numerically the family of radially symmetric ground state bright stationary solutions for focusing and defocusing local nonlinearity, keeping in both cases a focusing nonlocal nonlinearity. We also analyze excited states and oscillations induced by fixing the temperature at the borders of the material. We provide simulations of soliton interactions, drawing analogies with the dynamics of galactic cores in the scalar field dark matter scenario.

Automata Learning meets Shielding

Safety is still one of the major research challenges in reinforcement learning (RL). In this paper, we address the problem of how to avoid safety violations of RL agents during exploration in probabilistic and partially unknown environments. Our approach combines automata learning for Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) and shield synthesis in an iterative approach. Initially, the MDP representing the environment is unknown. The agent starts exploring the environment and collects traces. From the collected traces, we passively learn MDPs that abstractly represent the safety-relevant aspects of the environment. Given a learned MDP and a safety specification, we construct a shield. For each state-action pair within a learned MDP, the shield computes exact probabilities on how likely it is that executing the action results in violating the specification from the current state within the next $k$ steps. After the shield is constructed, the shield is used during runtime and blocks any actions that induce a too large risk from the agent. The shielded agent continues to explore the environment and collects new data on the environment. Iteratively, we use the collected data to learn new MDPs with higher accuracy, resulting in turn in shields able to prevent more safety violations. We implemented our approach and present a detailed case study of a Q-learning agent exploring slippery Gridworlds. In our experiments, we show that as the agent explores more and more of the environment during training, the improved learned models lead to shields that are able to prevent many safety violations.

Recent work paints a conflicting portrait of the distribution of black hole spins in merging binaries measured with gravitational waves. Some analyses find that a significant fraction of merging binaries contain at least one black hole with a spin tilt $>90^\circ$ with respect to the orbital angular momentum vector, which has been interpreted as a signature for dynamical assembly. Other analyses find the data are consistent with a bimodal population in which some binaries contain black holes with negligible spin while the rest contain black holes with spin vectors preferentially aligned with the orbital angular momentum vector. In this work, we scrutinize models for the distribution of black hole spins to pinpoint possible failure modes in which the model yields a faulty conclusion. We reanalyze data from the second LIGO--Virgo gravitational-wave transient catalog (GWTC-2) using a revised spin model, which allows for a sub-population of black holes with negligible spins. In agreement with recent results by Roulet et al., we show that the GWTC-2 detections are consistent with two distinct sub-populations. We estimate that $29-75\%$ (90\% credible interval) of merging binaries contain black holes with negligible spin $\chi \approx 0$. The remaining binaries are part of a second sub-population in which the spin vectors are preferentially (but not exactly) aligned to the orbital angular momentum. The black holes in this second sub-population are characterized by spins of $\chi\sim0.45$. We suggest that the inferred spin distribution is consistent with the hypothesis that all merging binaries form via the field formation scenario.

We investigate pion source sizes through the Yano-Koonin-Podgoretski\u{\i} (YKP) parametrization for the Hanbury-Brown Twiss (HBT) effect in the CERN-SPS 158 GeV/A central collisions. We calculate two-particle correlation functions numerically based on a (3+1)-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamics with a first order phase transition and analyze the pair momentum dependence of the HBT radii extracted from the YKP parametrization in detail. We find that even in the case of a first order phase transition, expansion and the surface dominant freeze-out make the source in the hydrodynamical model opaque significantly. Consequently, the interpretation of the temporal radius parameter as the time duration becomes unavailable for the hydrodynamical model.

The product of the gluon dressing function and the square of the ghost dressing function in the Landau gauge can be regarded to represent, apart from the inverse power corrections 1/Q^{2n}, a nonperturbative generalization A(Q^2) of the perturbative QCD running coupling a(Q^2)=alpha_s(Q^2)/pi. Recent large volume lattice calculations for these dressing functions indicate that the coupling defined in such a way goes to zero as A(Q^2)~Q^2 when the squared momenta Q^2 go to zero (Q^2<<1 GeV^2). In this work we construct such a QCD coupling A(Q^2) which fulfills also various other physically motivated conditions. At high momenta it becomes the underlying perturbative coupling a(Q^2) to a very high precision. And at intermediate low squared momenta Q^2~1 GeV^2 it gives results consistent with the data of the semihadronic tau lepton decays as measured by OPAL and ALEPH. The coupling is constructed in a dispersive way, resulting as a byproduct in the holomorphic behavior of A(Q^2) in the complex Q^2-plane which reflects the holomorphic behavior of the spacelike QCD observables. Application of the Borel sum rules to tau-decay V+A spectral functions allows us to obtain values for the gluon (dimension-4) condensate and the dimension-6 condensate, which reproduce the measured OPAL and ALEPH data to a significantly better precision than the perturbative MSbar coupling approach.

We study nontrivial entropy invariants in the class of parabolic flows on homogeneous spaces, quasi-unipotent flows. We show that topological complexity (ie, slow entropy) can be computed directly from the Jordan block structure of the adjoint representation. Moreover using uniform polynomial shearing we are able to show that the metric orbit growth (ie, slow entropy) coincides with the topological one, establishing hence variational principle for quasi-unipotent flows (this also applies to the non-compact case). Our results also apply to sequence entropy. We establish criterion for a system to have trivial topological complexity and give some examples in which the measure-theoretic and topological complexities do not coincide for uniquely ergodic systems, violating the intuition of the classical variational principle.

Because of its high directivity, free-space optical (FSO) communication offers a number of advantages. It can, however, give rise to major system difficulties concerning alignment between two terminals. During the link-acquisition step (a.k.a. coarse pointing), a ground station can be prevented from acquiring optical links due to pointing errors and insufficient information about unmanned aerial vehicle locations. We propose, in this letter, a radio-frequency (RF) lens antenna array to increase the performance of coarse pointing in hybrid RF/FSO communications. The proposed algorithm using a novel closed-form angle estimator, compared to conventional methods, reduces the minimum outage probability by over a thousand times.

The Invasion Model on the complete bibartitle graph was introduced and studied by physicists as a rudimentary model for opinion dynamics on complex networks. We identify the limit of the Quasistationary distribution for the model as one partition size tends to infinity. The limit is a highly dispersed measure. A distinctive feature of the model is that of two time scales with non-trivial interaction. The work and the results complement and are in sharp contrast to the analogous results on the closely related Voter Model.

A double quantum dot device is a tunable two-level system for electronic energy states. A dc electron current directly measures the rates for elastic and inelastic transitions between the two levels. For inelastic transitions energy is exchanged with bosonic degrees of freedom in the environment. The inelastic transition rates are well described by the Einstein coefficients, relating absorption with stimulated and spontaneous emission. The most effectively coupled bosons in the specific environment of our semiconductor device are acoustic phonons. The experiments demonstrate the importance of vacuum fluctuations in the environment for little circuits of coherent quantum devices.

Our analysis is performed for general phase factor, and for the case of parity-invariant theory we find the agreement with expressions for cubic vertices available in the literature. This provides an additional indication that field redefinition proposed in [arXiv:1706.03718] is the proper one.

Making the two views distinctive is a core to guarantee that unsupervised methods can learn meaningful information. However, such frameworks are sometimes fragile on overfitting if the augmentations used for generating two views are not strong enough, causing the over-confident issue on the training data. This drawback hinders the model from learning subtle variance and fine-grained information. To address this, in this work we aim to involve the distance concept on label space in the unsupervised learning and let the model be aware of the soft degree of similarity between positive or negative pairs through mixing the input data space, to further work collaboratively for the input and loss spaces. Despite its conceptual simplicity, we show empirically that with the solution -- Unsupervised image mixtures (Un-Mix), we can learn subtler, more robust and generalized representations from the transformed input and corresponding new label space. Extensive experiments are conducted on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, STL-10, Tiny ImageNet and standard ImageNet with popular unsupervised methods SimCLR, BYOL, MoCo V1&V2, SwAV, etc. Our proposed image mixture and label assignment strategy can obtain consistent improvement by 1~3% following exactly the same hyperparameters and training procedures of the base methods.

We study the quantum scalar field in the background of BTZ black hole and evaluate the entanglement entropy of the non-vacuum states. The entropy is proportional to the area of event horizon for the ground state, but the area law is violated in the case of non-vacuum states (first excited state and mixed states) and the corrections scale as power law.

Class-Adaptive Self-Training for Relation Extraction with Incompletely Annotated Training Data

Relation extraction (RE) aims to extract relations from sentences and documents. Existing relation extraction models typically rely on supervised machine learning. However, recent studies showed that many RE datasets are incompletely annotated. This is known as the false negative problem in which valid relations are falsely annotated as 'no_relation'. Models trained with such data inevitably make similar mistakes during the inference stage. Self-training has been proven effective in alleviating the false negative problem. However, traditional self-training is vulnerable to confirmation bias and exhibits poor performance in minority classes. To overcome this limitation, we proposed a novel class-adaptive re-sampling self-training framework. Specifically, we re-sampled the pseudo-labels for each class by precision and recall scores. Our re-sampling strategy favored the pseudo-labels of classes with high precision and low recall, which improved the overall recall without significantly compromising precision. We conducted experiments on document-level and biomedical relation extraction datasets, and the results showed that our proposed self-training framework consistently outperforms existing competitive methods on the Re-DocRED and ChemDisgene datasets when the training data are incompletely annotated. Our code is released at https://github.com/DAMO-NLP-SG/CAST.

We consider the time evolution of a discrete state embedded in a continuum. Results from scattering theory can be utilized to solve the initial value problem and discuss the system as a model of wave packet preparation. Extensive use is made of the analytic properties of the propagators, and simple model systems are evaluated to illustrate the argument. We verify the exponential appearence of the continuum state and its propagation as a localized wave packet.

Developing robust, quantitative methods to optimize resource allocations in response to epidemics has the potential to save lives and minimize health care costs. In this paper, we develop and apply a computationally efficient algorithm that enables us to calculate the complete probability distribution for the final epidemic size in a stochastic Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model. Based on these results, we determine the optimal allocations of a limited quantity of vaccine between two non-interacting populations. We compare the stochastic solution to results obtained for the traditional, deterministic SIR model. For intermediate quantities of vaccine, the deterministic model is a poor estimate of the optimal strategy for the more realistic, stochastic case.

The dynamics of the reaction H + OH $\to$ O (3P) + H2 have been studied in a series of quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations and transition state theory (TST) methods using high quality 3A' and 3A'' potential energy surfaces (PESs). Accurate OH (v, j) state resolved cross sections and rate constants on both potential energy surfaces are presented and fitted for OH at (v = 0, j = 0-16) and (v = 1, j = 0-6). The cross sections were calculated for different collisional energies (Ec), ranging from the threshold energy at each specific rovibrational state up to 1.0 eV with step sizes of 0.1 eV or less. They increase steeply with collision energy when the barrier to reaction can be overcome, after which the cross sections stay nearly constant with energy. State resolved rate constants in the temperature range 200-2500 K are presented based on the cross sections. Total thermal rate constants were calculated by summing the rates for reaction on the 3A' and 3A'' potential energy surfaces weighted by 1/3 and taking into account the thermal populations of the rovibrational states of the OH molecules. It is shown that the improved canonical variational transition (CVT) treatments with the approximation of zero-curvature tunneling (ZCT) or small-curvature tunneling (SCT) produce results more in accord with the QCT results than the TST and CVT methods. The reactions are governed by the direct reaction mechanism. The rate constants for OH in excited vibrational and rotational states are orders of magnitude larger than the thermal rate constants, which needs to be taken into account in astrochemical models.

This note is based on a talk given at the 2019 ISAAC Congress in Aveiro, Portugal. We give an expository account of joint work with Daniele Alessandrini and Gye-Seon Lee on Hitchin components for orbifold groups (arXiv:1811.05366), recasting part of it in the language of analytic orbi-curves. This reduces the computation of the dimension of the Hitchin component for orbifold groups to an application of the orbifold Riemann-Roch theorem.

By extracting the beam with a bent crystal or by using an internal gas target, the multi-TeV proton and lead LHC beams allow one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experiments ever and to study $pp$, $p$d and $p$A collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=115$ GeV and Pb$p$ and PbA collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=72$ GeV with high precision and modern detection techniques. Such studies would address open questions in the domain of the nucleon and nucleus partonic structure at high-$x$, quark-gluon plasma and, by using longitudinally or transversally polarised targets, spin physics. In this paper, we will review the technical solutions to obtain a high-luminosity fixed-target experiment at the LHC and will discuss their possible implementations with the ALICE and LHCb detectors.

This paper deals with the technology transfer activities of the main public research institution in Italy, the Italian Research Council, CNR. A comparative analysis on patenting and licensing performances between CNR and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, MIT has been carried out. Findings show that: research expenses being equal, CNR patents are 26% of MIT's; and, patents being equal, CNR licenses are also 26% of MIT's. This means that CNR impact on domestic competitiveness, in terms of patent licenses, is less than 7% of MIT's. Moreover, while 83% of CNR patents are never licensed to domestic industry, the Italian technology balance of payments shows a perennial deficit. The paper concludes with the identification of the possible causes that may explain such a gap.

Models with light dark sector and dark matter particles motivate qualitatively new collider searches. Here we carry out a comprehensive study of hadrophilic models with U(1)$_B$ and U(1)$_{B-3L_{\tau}}$ gauge bosons coupled to light dark matter. The new mediator particles in these models couple to quarks, but have suppressed couplings to leptons, providing a useful foil to the well-studied dark photon models. We consider current bounds from accelerator and collider searches, rare anomaly-induced decays, neutrino non-standard interactions, and dark matter direct detection. Despite the many existing constraints, these models predict a range of new signatures that can be seen in current and near future experiments, including dark gauge boson decays to the hadronic final states $\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$, $\pi^0 \gamma$, $K^+ K^-$, and $K_S K_L$ in FASER at LHC Run 3, enhancements of $\nu_{\tau}$ scattering rates in far-forward neutrino detectors, and thermal dark matter scattering in FLArE in the HL-LHC era. These models therefore motivate an array of different experiments in the far-forward region at the LHC, as could be accommodated in the proposed Forward Physics Facility.

We propose and analyze theoretically a resonant acousto-optic Stark effect for microcavity (MC) polaritons parametrically driven by a surface acoustic wave. For GaAs-based microcavities our scheme ``acoustic pumping - optical probing'' deals with surface acoustic waves of frequency $\nu_{\rm SAW} \simeq 0.5 - 3$ GHz and intensity $I_{\rm SAW} \simeq 0.1 - 10$ mW/mm. The acoustically-induced stop gaps in the MC polariton spectrum drastically change the optical response of MC polaritons. Because an acoustically pumped intrinsic semiconductor microcavity remains in its ground electronic state, no many-body effects screen and weaken the resonant acousto-optic Stark effect. In the meantime, this allows us to work out an exactly-solvable model for resonant acousto-optics of MC polaritons which deals with giant acousto-optical nonlinearities. Finally, we discuss possible applications of the proposed resonant acoustic Stark effect for optical modulation and switching and describe an acousto-optic device based on a (GaAs) microcavity driven by a surface acoustic wave.

Recurrent models are frequently being used in online tasks such as autonomous driving, and a comprehensive study of their vulnerability is called for. Existing research is limited in generality only addressing application-specific vulnerability or making implausible assumptions such as the knowledge of future input. In this paper, we present a general attack framework for online tasks incorporating the unique constraints of the online setting different from offline tasks. Our framework is versatile in that it covers time-varying adversarial objectives and various optimization constraints, allowing for a comprehensive study of robustness. Using the framework, we also present a novel white-box attack called Predictive Attack that `hallucinates' the future. The attack achieves 98 percent of the performance of the ideal but infeasible clairvoyant attack on average. We validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework and attacks through various experiments.

We consider the influence of transverse confinement on the instability properties of velocity and density distributions reminiscent of those pertaining to exchange flows in stratified inclined ducts, such as the recent experiment of Lefauve et al. (J. Fluid Mech. 848, 508-544, 2018). Using a normal mode streamwise and temporal expansion for flows in ducts with various aspect ratios $B$ and non-trivial transverse velocity profiles, we calculate two-dimensional (2D) dispersion relations with associated eigenfunctions varying in the 'crosswise' direction, in which the density varies, and the spanwise direction, both normal to the duct walls and to the flow direction. We also compare these 2D dispersion relations to the so-called one-dimensional (1D) dispersion relation obtained for spanwise invariant perturbations, for different aspect ratios $B$ and bulk Richardson numbers $Ri_b$. In this limited parameter space, the presence of lateral walls has a stabilizing effect. Furthermore, accounting for spanwise-varying perturbations results in a plethora of unstable modes, the number of which increases as the aspect ratio is increased. These modes present an odd-even regularity in their spatial structures, which is rationalized by comparison to the so-called one-dimensional oblique (1D-O) dispersion relation obtained for oblique waves. Finally, we show that in most cases, the most unstable 2D mode is the one that oscillates the least in the spanwise direction, as a consequence of viscous damping. However, in a limited region of the parameter space and in the absence of stratification, we show that a secondary mode with a more complex `twisted' structure dominated by crosswise vorticity becomes more unstable than the least oscillating Kelvin-Helmholtz mode associated with spanwise vorticity.

Landauer's formula is the standard theoretical tool to examine ballistic transport in nano- and meso-scale junctions, but it necessitates that any variation of the junction with time must be slow compared to characteristic times of the system, e.g., the relaxation time of local excitations. Transport through structurally dynamic junctions is, however, increasingly of interest for sensing, harnessing fluctuations, and real-time control. Here, we calculate the steady-state current when relaxation of electrons in the reservoirs is present and demonstrate that it gives rise to three regimes of behavior: weak relaxation gives a contact-limited current; strong relaxation localizes electrons, distorting their natural dynamics and reducing the current; and in an intermediate regime the Landauer view of the system only is recovered. We also demonstrate that a simple equation of motion emerges, which is suitable for efficiently simulating time-dependent transport.

Linear light processing functions (e.g., routing, splitting, filtering) are key functions requiring configuration to implement on a programmable photonic integrated circuit (PPIC). In recirculating waveguide meshes (which include loop-backs), this is usually done manually. Some previous results describe explorations to perform this task automatically, but their efficiency or applicability is still limited. In this paper, we propose an efficient method that can automatically realize configurations for many light processing functions on a square-mesh PPIC. At its heart is an automatic differentiation subroutine built upon analytical expressions of scattering matrices, that enables gradient descent optimization for functional circuit synthesis. Similar to the state-of-the-art synthesis techniques, our method can realize configurations for a wide range of light processing functions, and multiple functions on the same PPIC simultaneously. However, we do not need to separate the functions spatially into different subdomains of the mesh, and the resulting optimum can have multiple functions using the same part of the mesh. Furthermore, compared to non-gradient or numerical differentiation based methods, our proposed approach achieves 3x time reduction in computational cost.

Segmentation of pathological images is a crucial step for accurate cancer diagnosis. However, acquiring dense annotations of such images for training is labor-intensive and time-consuming. To address this issue, Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) has the potential for reducing the annotation cost, but it is challenged by a large number of unlabeled training images. In this paper, we propose a novel SSL method based on Cross Distillation of Multiple Attentions (CDMA) to effectively leverage unlabeled images. Firstly, we propose a Multi-attention Tri-branch Network (MTNet) that consists of an encoder and a three-branch decoder, with each branch using a different attention mechanism that calibrates features in different aspects to generate diverse outputs. Secondly, we introduce Cross Decoder Knowledge Distillation (CDKD) between the three decoder branches, allowing them to learn from each other's soft labels to mitigate the negative impact of incorrect pseudo labels in training. Additionally, uncertainty minimization is applied to the average prediction of the three branches, which further regularizes predictions on unlabeled images and encourages inter-branch consistency. Our proposed CDMA was compared with eight state-of-the-art SSL methods on the public DigestPath dataset, and the experimental results showed that our method outperforms the other approaches under different annotation ratios. The code is available at \href{https://github.com/HiLab-git/CDMA}{https://github.com/HiLab-git/CDMA.}

PECOS: Prediction for Enormous and Correlated Output Spaces

Many large-scale applications amount to finding relevant results from an enormous output space of potential candidates. For example, finding the best matching product from a large catalog or suggesting related search phrases on a search engine. The size of the output space for these problems can range from millions to billions, and can even be infinite in some applications. Moreover, training data is often limited for the long-tail items in the output space. Fortunately, items in the output space are often correlated thereby presenting an opportunity to alleviate the data sparsity issue. In this paper, we propose the Prediction for Enormous and Correlated Output Spaces (PECOS) framework, a versatile and modular machine learning framework for solving prediction problems for very large output spaces, and apply it to the eXtreme Multilabel Ranking (XMR) problem: given an input instance, find and rank the most relevant items from an enormous but fixed and finite output space. We propose a three phase framework for PECOS: (i) in the first phase, PECOS organizes the output space using a semantic indexing scheme, (ii) in the second phase, PECOS uses the indexing to narrow down the output space by orders of magnitude using a machine learned matching scheme, and (iii) in the third phase, PECOS ranks the matched items using a final ranking scheme. The versatility and modularity of PECOS allows for easy plug-and-play of various choices for the indexing, matching, and ranking phases. We also develop very fast inference procedures which allow us to perform XMR predictions in real time; for example, inference takes less than 1 millisecond per input on the dataset with 2.8 million labels. The PECOS software is available at https://libpecos.org.

We discuss a diagonal representation of a reduced density matrix determined within the framework of the complex scaling method. We also discuss a possible measure of bipartite correlations in quantum resonance states. As an example, we consider a one-dimensional system of two bosons with a contact interaction subjected to an open potential well. The correlation properties of the lowest-energy resonance state of the system are explored over a wide range of the inter-boson interaction strength, including the Tonks-Girardeau regime.

The High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) onboard the Chandra X-ray Observatory has so far produced a large number of high resolution X-ray spectra with unprecedented spectroscopic details. Spectra from outflows in galactic and extragalactic X-ray sources indicate plasmas with a wide range of properties. Optically thick fluorescent matter and warm photoionized regions play as much a role as very hot regions where collisional ionization and scattering dominate the emission. Through the measurements of blue- and redshifts the complex dynamics of these plasmas is revealed. Quite intriguing in this respect is the case of X-ray absorption of neutral matter. In many cases spectral features are found to be of high complexity though the detection of edges from intermediate Z elements as well as absorption lines from monatomic species to molecular compounds. With the application of line diagnostic tools and more accurate atomic data bases we are now able to model the properties of these plasmas as well as measure line shifts and shapes to constrain their spatial distribution and dynamics. In various examples, i.e. plasmas from accretion disks, winds, stationary clouds as well as the ISM, the power of highly resolved X-ray spectra is demonstrated and the scientific capability of XEUS in this context is explored.

We introduce a non-resonant acceleration mechanism arising from the second adiabatic invariant in magnetic turbulence and apply it to study the prompt emission spectra of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The mechanism contains both the first- and second-order Fermi acceleration, originating from the interacting turbulent reconnection and dynamo processes. It leads to a hard electron energy distribution up to a cutoff energy at the balance between the acceleration and synchrotron cooling. The sufficient acceleration rate ensures a rapid hardening of any initial energy distribution to a power-law distribution with the index $p \sim 1$, which naturally produces a low-energy photon index $\alpha \sim -1$ via the synchrotron radiation. For typical GRB parameters, the synchrotron emission can extend to a characteristic photon energy on the order of $\sim 100$ keV.

De Finetti Theorems for Quantum Conditional Probability Distributions with Symmetry

The aim of device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) is to study protocols that allow the generation of a secret shared key between two parties under minimal assumptions on the devices that produce the key. These devices are merely modeled as black boxes and mathematically described as conditional probability distributions. A major obstacle in the analysis of DIQKD protocols is the huge space of possible black box behaviors. De Finetti theorems can help to overcome this problem by reducing the analysis to black boxes that have an iid structure. Here we show two new de Finetti theorems that relate conditional probability distributions in the quantum set to de Finetti distributions (convex combinations of iid distributions), that are themselves in the quantum set. We also show how one of these de Finetti theorems can be used to enforce some restrictions onto the attacker of a DIQKD protocol. Finally we observe that some desirable strengthenings of this restriction, for instance to collective attacks only, are not straightforwardly possible.

We introduce a method for analyzing ground state properties of quantum many body systems, based on the characterization of separability and entanglement by single subsystem unitary operations. We apply the method to the study of the ground state structure of several interacting spin-1/2 models, described by Hamiltonians with different degrees of symmetry. We show that the approach based on single qubit unitary operations allows to introduce {\it ``entanglement excitation energies''}, a set of observables that can characterize ground state properties, including the quantification of single-site entanglement and the determination of quantum critical points. The formalism allows to identify the existence and location of factorization points, and a purely quantum {\it ``transition of entanglement''} that occurs at the approach of factorization. This kind of quantum transition is characterized by a diverging ratio of excitation energies associated to single-qubit unitary operations.

We study type IIA string theory compactified on Calabi-Yau fourfolds and heterotic string theory compactified on Calabi-Yau threefolds times a two-torus. We derive the resulting effective theories which have two space-time dimensions and preserve four supercharges. The duality between such vacua is established at the level of the effective theory. For type IIA vacua with non-trivial Ramond-Ramond background fluxes a superpotential is generated. We show that for a specific choice of background fluxes and a fourfold which has the structure of a threefold fibred over a sphere the superpotential coincides with the superpotential recently proposed by Taylor and Vafa in compactifications of type IIB string theory on a threefold.

We introduce a novel validation framework to measure the true robustness of learning models for real-world applications by creating source-inclusive and source-exclusive partitions in a dataset via clustering. We develop a robustness metric derived from source-aware lower and upper bounds of model accuracy even when data source labels are not readily available. We clearly demonstrate that even on a well-explored dataset like MNIST, challenging training scenarios can be constructed under the proposed assessment framework for two separate yet equally important applications: i) more rigorous learning model comparison and ii) dataset adequacy evaluation. In addition, our findings not only promise a more complete identification of trade-offs between model complexity, accuracy and robustness but can also help researchers optimize their efforts in data collection by identifying the less robust and more challenging class labels.

Population management using artificial gene drives (alleles biasing inheritance, increasing their own transmission to offspring) is becoming a realistic possibility with the development of CRISPR-Cas genetic engineering. A gene drive may however have to be stopped. "Antidotes" (brakes) have been suggested, but have been so far only studied in well-mixed populations. Here, we consider a reaction--diffusion system modeling the release of a gene drive (of fitness $1-a$) and a brake (fitness $1-b$, $b\leq a$) in a wild-type population (fitness $1$). We prove that, whenever the drive fitness is at most $1/2$ while the brake fitness is close to $1$, coextinction of the brake and the drive occurs in the long run. On the contrary, if the drive fitness is greater than $1/2$, then coextinction is impossible: the drive and the brake keep spreading spatially, leaving in the invasion wake a complicated spatio-temporally heterogeneous genetic pattern. Based on numerical experiments, we argue in favor of a global coextinction conjecture provided the drive fitness is at most $1/2$, irrespective of the brake fitness. The proof relies upon the study of a related predator--prey system with strong Allee effect on the prey. Our results indicate that some drives may be unstoppable, and that, if gene drives are ever deployed in nature, threshold drives, that only spread if introduced in high enough frequencies, should be preferred.

When a deep learning model is sequentially trained on different datasets, it forgets the knowledge acquired from previous data, a phenomenon known as catastrophic forgetting. It deteriorates performance of the deep learning model on diverse datasets, which is critical in privacy-preserving deep learning (PPDL) applications based on transfer learning (TL). To overcome this, we propose review learning (RL), a generative-replay-based continual learning technique that does not require a separate generator. Data samples are generated from the memory stored within the synaptic weights of the deep learning model which are used to review knowledge acquired from previous datasets. The performance of RL was validated through PPDL experiments. Simulations and real-world medical multi-institutional experiments were conducted using three types of binary classification electronic health record data. In the real-world experiments, the global area under the receiver operating curve was 0.710 for RL and 0.655 for TL. Thus, RL was highly effective in retaining previously learned knowledge.

Careful analyses of photometric and star count data available for the nine putative young clusters identified by Camargo et al. (2015, 2016) at high Galactic latitudes reveal that none of the groups contain early-type stars, and most are not significant density enhancements above field level. 2MASS colours for stars in the groups match those of unreddened late-type dwarfs and giants, as expected for contamination by (mostly) thin disk objects. A simulation of one such field using only typical high latitude foreground stars yields a colour-magnitude diagram that is very similar to those constructed by Camargo et al. (2015, 2016) as evidence for their young groups as well as the means of deriving their reddenings and distances. Although some of the fields are coincident with clusters of galaxies, one must conclude that there is no evidence that the putative clusters are extremely young stellar groups.

The communication cost of security and privacy in federated frequency estimation

cs.IT cs.DS math.IT

We consider the federated frequency estimation problem, where each user holds a private item $X_i$ from a size-$d$ domain and a server aims to estimate the empirical frequency (i.e., histogram) of $n$ items with $n \ll d$. Without any security and privacy considerations, each user can communicate its item to the server by using $\log d$ bits. A naive application of secure aggregation protocols would, however, require $d\log n$ bits per user. Can we reduce the communication needed for secure aggregation, and does security come with a fundamental cost in communication? In this paper, we develop an information-theoretic model for secure aggregation that allows us to characterize the fundamental cost of security and privacy in terms of communication. We show that with security (and without privacy) $\Omega\left( n \log d \right)$ bits per user are necessary and sufficient to allow the server to compute the frequency distribution. This is significantly smaller than the $d\log n$ bits per user needed by the naive scheme, but significantly higher than the $\log d$ bits per user needed without security. To achieve differential privacy, we construct a linear scheme based on a noisy sketch which locally perturbs the data and does not require a trusted server (a.k.a. distributed differential privacy). We analyze this scheme under $\ell_2$ and $\ell_\infty$ loss. By using our information-theoretic framework, we show that the scheme achieves the optimal accuracy-privacy trade-off with optimal communication cost, while matching the performance in the centralized case where data is stored in the central server.

The "weak" relay-eavesdropper channel was first studied by Lai and El Gamal, whose achievable scheme introduced noise forwarding (NF) and used backward decoding. We suggest a novel sliding window decoding scheme with a two block decoding delay, where the relay uses compress-forward with Wyner-Ziv (WZ) binning but does not use NF. Wireless engineers will welcome the reduced decoding delay. Sliding window decoding mandates multiblock equivocation calculations; dispensing with NF enables it. We identify nine regimes and develop a case-by-case choice of relay channel codebook and WZ bin sizes to maximize the secrecy rate. The multiblock equivocation calculations may be of independent interest.

Generalized Stochastic Frank-Wolfe Algorithm with Stochastic "Substitute" Gradient for Structured Convex Optimization

math.OC
http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
The stochastic Frank-Wolfe method has recently attracted much general interest in the context of optimization for statistical and machine learning due to its ability to work with a more general feasible region. However, there has been a complexity gap in the guaranteed convergence rate for stochastic Frank-Wolfe compared to its deterministic counterpart. In this work, we present a new generalized stochastic Frank-Wolfe method which closes this gap for the class of structured optimization problems encountered in statistical and machine learning characterized by empirical loss minimization with a certain type of ``linear prediction'' property (formally defined in the paper), which is typically present loss minimization problems in practice. Our method also introduces the notion of a ``substitute gradient'' that is a not-necessarily-unbiased sample of the gradient. We show that our new method is equivalent to a particular randomized coordinate mirror descent algorithm applied to the dual problem, which in turn provides a new interpretation of randomized dual coordinate descent in the primal space. Also, in the special case of a strongly convex regularizer our generalized stochastic Frank-Wolfe method (as well as the randomized dual coordinate descent method) exhibits linear convergence. Furthermore, we present computational experiments that indicate that our method outperforms other stochastic Frank-Wolfe methods consistent with the theory developed herein.
