Integration of Riemannian Motion Policy and Whole-Body Control for Dynamic Legged Locomotion

In this paper, we present a novel Riemannian Motion Policy (RMP)flow-based whole-body control framework for improved dynamic legged locomotion. RMPflow is a differential geometry-inspired algorithm for fusing multiple task-space policies (RMPs) into a configuration space policy in a geometrically consistent manner. RMP-based approaches are especially suited for designing simultaneous tracking and collision avoidance behaviors and have been successfully deployed on serial manipulators. However, one caveat of RMPflow is that it is designed with fully actuated systems in mind. In this work, we, for the first time, extend it to the domain of dynamic-legged systems, which have unforgiving under-actuation and limited control input. Thorough push recovery experiments are conducted in simulation to validate the overall framework. We show that expanding the valid stepping region with an RMP-based collision-avoidance swing leg controller improves balance robustness against external disturbances by up to $53\%$ compared to a baseline approach using a restricted stepping region. Furthermore, a point-foot biped robot is purpose-built for experimental studies of dynamic biped locomotion. A preliminary unassisted in-place stepping experiment is conducted to show the viability of the control framework and hardware.

As more and more collections of data are becoming available on the web to everyone, non expert users demand easy ways to retrieve data from these collections. One solution is the so called Visual Query Systems (VQS) where queries are represented visually and users do not have to understand query languages such as SQL or XQuery. In 1996, a paper by Catarci reviewed the Visual Query Systems available until that year. In this paper, we review VQSs from 1997 until now and try to determine whether they have been the solution for non expert users. The short answer is no because very few systems have in fact been used in real environments or as commercial tools. We have also gathered basic features of VQSs such as the visual representation adopted to present the reality of interest or the visual representation adopted to express queries.

We provide the first classification of different types of Random Boolean Networks (RBNs). We study the differences of RBNs depending on the degree of synchronicity and determinism of their updating scheme. For doing so, we first define three new types of RBNs. We note some similarities and differences between different types of RBNs with the aid of a public software laboratory we developed. Particularly, we find that the point attractors are independent of the updating scheme, and that RBNs are more different depending on their determinism or non-determinism rather than depending on their synchronicity or asynchronicity. We also show a way of mapping non-synchronous deterministic RBNs into synchronous RBNs. Our results are important for justifying the use of specific types of RBNs for modelling natural phenomena.

We review some existing methods for the computation of first order moments on junction trees using Shafer-Shenoy algorithm. First, we consider the problem of first order moments computation as vertices problem in junction trees. In this way, the problem is solved using the memory space of an order of the junction tree edge-set cardinality. After that, we consider two algorithms, Lauritzen-Nilsson algorithm, and Mau\'a et al. algorithm, which computes the first order moments as the normalization problem in junction tree, using the memory space of an order of the junction tree leaf-set cardinality.

For the description of the Universe expansion, compatible with observational data, a model of modified gravity - Lovelock gravity with dilaton - is investigated. D-dimensional space with 3- and (D-4)-dimensional maximally symmetric subspaces is considered. Space without matter and space with perfect fluid are under test. In various forms of the theory under way (third order without dilaton and second order - Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity - with dilaton and without it) stationary, power-law, exponential and exponent-of-exponent form cosmological solutions are obtained. Last two forms include solutions which are clear to describe accelerating expansion of 3-dimensional subspace. Also there is a set of solutions describing cosmological expansion which does not tend to isotropization in the presence of matter.

We present a systematic investigation of the magnetoreflectance of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite in magnetic field B up to 18 T . From these measurements, we report the determination of lifetimes tau associated with the lowest Landau levels in the quantum limit. We find a linear field dependence for inverse lifetime 1/tau(B) of the lowest Landau levels, which is consistent with the hypothesis of a three-dimensional (3D) to 1D crossover in an anisotropic 3D metal in the quantum limit. This enigmatic result uncovers the origin of the anomalous linear in-plane magnetoresistance observed both in bulk graphite and recently in mesoscopic graphite samples.

We present near-infrared 1.5 - 2.5 micron moderate resolution long-slit spectra of two Seyfert 1 galaxies (NGC 1097 and NGC 1566), three Seyfert 2s (NGC 1386, NGC 4945 and NGC 5128) and one Seyfert 1.5 (NGC 3227), both parallel to ionization cone or jet and perpendicular to it. The spectra are used to study the spatial extent of the line emission, integrated masses of excited H2 and the excitation mechanisms of interstellar gas. Broad BrGgamma originating from the BLR is detected in three galaxies (NGC 1386, NGC 1566 and NGC 3227), of which NGC 1386 is optically classified as Seyfert 2. In these galaxies iron is narrow and may be X-ray excited. In all galaxies except in NGC 5128, the spatial FWHM size of H2 1--0 S(1) nuclear core is larger perpendicular to the cone or jet than parallel to it, in agreement with AGN unified models. The surface densities of H2 are higher in Seyfert 2s than in Seyfert 1s, with the Seyfert 1.5 NGC 3227 lying between them. The exception to this is the Seyfert 2 NGC 1386, where two extended regions are detected parallel to cone. Coronal lines are detected in two galaxies, NGC 1386 and NGC 3227.

Three different quantum cards which are non-orthogonal quantum bits are sent to two different players, Alice and Bob, randomly. Alice receives one of the three cards, and Bob receives the remaining two cards. We find that Bob could know better than Alice does on guessing Alice's card, no matter what Bob chooses to measure his two cards collectively or separately. We also find that Bob's best strategy for guessing Alice's card is to measure his two cards collectively.

A VLAN is a logical connection that allows hosts to be grouped together in the same broadcast domain, so that packets are delivered only to ports that are combined to the same VLAN. We can improve wireless network performance and save bandwidth through the characteristic VLAN network. In addition, the implementation of VLAN greatly improves wireless network security by reducing the number of hosts receiving copies of frames broadcast by switches, thus keeping hosts holding critical data on a separate VLAN. In this paper we compare wireless network with VLAN via wireless network. The proposed network is evaluated within terms of delay and average throughput using web browsing applications and file transfer in heavy traffic. The simulation was carried out using OPNET 14.5 modeler and the results show that the use of VLAN via wireless network improved performance by reducing traffic resulting in a minimized delay time. Furthermore, VLAN implementation reduces network throughput because the traffic received and transmitted has a positive relationship with throughput. Eventually, we investigated the use of adhoc routing protocols such as AODV, DSR, OLSR, TORA and GPR to improve the performance of wireless VLAN networks.

We review the self-consistent mean-field theory for charge-frustrated Josephson junction arrays. Using <cos(\phi)> (\phi is the phase of the superconducting wavefunction) as order parameter and imposing the self-consistency condition, we compute the phase boundary line between the superconducting region (<cos(\phi)> not equal to zero) and the insulating one (<cos(\phi)> = 0). For a uniform offset charge q=e the superconducting phase increases with respect to the situation in which q=0. Here, we generalize the self-consistent mean-field theory to include the effects induced by a random distribution of offset charges and/or of diagonal self-capacitances. For most of the phase diagram, our results agree with the outcomes of Quantum Monte Carlo simulations as well as with previous studies using the path-integral approach.

One of the most critical challenges in soaring the performance of perovskite solar cells is decreasing the density of trap states in the light-absorbing perovskite layer. These traps cause an increase in the recombination of charge carriers and decrease the efficiency of devices. One of the methods to study the trap density is space charge limited current (SCLC) analysis. For this purpose, some structures are needed with the ability to transport only electrons or holes. The trap density can be calculated by investigating the current-voltage diagram and finding the voltage corresponding to the slope change point. One of the challenges in these structures is using organic polymers like Spiro-OMeTAD, PEDOT: PSS, and PTAA as hole transport layers. They have problems like high acidity, lack of stability against moisture, low charge mobility, low conductivity, and high cost. In this work, a hole-only device structure is explained, made based on inorganic materials, which possesses high stability, a simple preparation method, and reasonable cost compared to conventional hole-only device structures. This structure is built by coating a nanostructured NiOx layer, perovskite, CIS, and Au on the ITO substrate. To investigate the performance of this structure, various perovskite layers were made at different experimental conditions, and their trap density was obtained by the proposed hole-only device structure. The analysis of the photovoltaic characteristics of cells revealed a clear correlation between the perovskite layer's trap density and the cells' performance. Our results show the introduced structure is a simple and stable structure that can be utilized in studying the trap density in perovskite layers to make more efficient cells.

The challenges with the molecular model of the multiquark systems are the identification of the hadronic molecules and the interaction between two color neutral hadrons. We study the di-hadronic molecular systems with proposed interaction potential as s-wave one boson exchange potential along with Screen Yukawa-like potential, and arrived with the proposal that within hadronic molecule the two color neutral hadrons experience the dipole-like interaction. The present study is the continuation of our previous study \cite{arxiv-Rathaud-penta}. With the proposed interaction potential, the mass spectra of $\Sigma_{s}K^{*}$, $\Sigma_{c}K^{*}$, $\Sigma_{b}K^{*}$, $\Sigma_{s}D^{*}$, $\Sigma_{c}D^{*}$, $\Sigma_{b}D^{*}$, $\Sigma_{s}B^{*}$, $\Sigma_{c}B^{*}$, $\Sigma_{b}B^{*}$, $\Xi_{s}K^{*}$, $\Xi_{c}K^{*}$, $\Xi_{b}K^{*}$, $\Xi_{s}D^{*}$, $\Xi_{c}D^{*}$, $\Xi_{b}D^{*}$, $\Xi_{s}B^{*}$, $\Xi_{c}B^{*}$, $\Xi_{b}B^{*}$ meson-baryon molecules are predicted. The Weinberg compositeness theorem which provides clue for the compositeness of the state is used for determination of the scattering length and effective range. The present study predict $P_{c}(4450)$ pentaquark sate as $\Sigma_{c}D^{*}$ molecule with $I(J^{P})=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3}{2}^{-})$. The formalism also predicts some very interesting open as well as hidden flavour near threshold molecular pentaquark states.

We consider quadratic bundles related to Hermitian symmetric spaces of the type SU(m+n)/S(U(m)x U(n)). The simplest representative of the corresponding integrable hierarchy is given by a multi-component Kaup-Newell derivative nonlinear Schroedinger equation which serves as a motivational example for our general considerations. We extensively discuss how one can apply Zakharov-Shabat's dressing procedure to derive reflectionless potentials obeying zero boundary conditions. Those could be used for one to construct fast decaying solutions to any nonlinear equation belonging to the same hierarchy. One can distinguish between generic soliton type solutions and rational solutions.

Using chains of bistable springs, a model is derived to investigate the plastic behavior of carbon nanotube arrays with damage. We study the preconditioning effect due to the loading history by computing analytically the stress-strain pattern corresponding to a fatigue-type damage of the structure. We identify the convergence of the discrete response to the limiting case of infinitely many springs, both analytically in the framework of Gamma-convergence, as well as numerically.

This article presents detailed discussions and calculations of the recent paper "Quantum Regge calculus of Einstein-Cartan theory" in Phys. Lett. B682 (2009) 300. The Euclidean space-time is discretized by a four-dimensional simplicial complex. We adopt basic tetrad and spin-connection fields to describe the simplicial complex. By introducing diffeomorphism and local Lorentz invariant holonomy fields, we construct a regularized Einstein-Cartan theory for studying the quantum dynamics of the simplicial complex and fermion fields. This regularized Einstein-Cartan action is shown to properly approach to its continuum counterpart in the continuum limit. Based on the local Lorentz invariance, we derive the dynamical equations satisfied by invariant holonomy fields. In the mean-field approximation, we show that the averaged size of 4-simplex, the element of the simplicial complex, is larger than the Planck length. This formulation provides a theoretical framework for analytical calculations and numerical simulations to study the quantum Einstein-Cartan theory.

We discuss the preliminary results of an extensive effort to address the fundamental, and yet un-answered, question that can be trivialized as: ``are there more blue or red blazars?''. This problematic is tightly connected with the much debated issue of the unified picture(s) of radio-loud AGNs, which in turn revolves around the existence, and the properties of relativistic jets. We address this question by comparing -- simultaneously -- the properties of the collection of heterogeneously selected samples that are available now, with the predictions of a set of plausible unifications scenarios. We show that it is already possible to make significant progress even by using only the present samples. The important role of selection effects is discussed. For instance we show that the multiple flux selections typical of available surveys could induce some of the correlations found in color-color diagrams. These latter results should apply to any study of flux limited samples.

In this paper we show that if $(y_n)$ is a seminormalized sequence in a Banach space which does not have any weakly convergent subsequence, then it contains a wide-$(s)$ subsequence $(x_n)$ which admits an equivalent convex basic sequence. This fact is used to characterize weak-compactness of bounded, closed convex sets in terms of the generic fixed point property ($\mathcal{G}$-$FPP$) for the class of affine bi-Lipschitz maps. This result generalizes a theorem by Benavides, Jap\'on Pineda and Prus previously proved for the class of continuous maps. We also introduce a relaxation of this notion ($\mathcal{WG}$-$FPP$) and observe that a closed convex bounded subset of a Banach space is weakly compact iff it has the $\mathcal{WG}$-$FPP$ for affine $1$-Lipschitz maps. Related results are also proved. For example, a complete convex bounded subset $C$ of a Hlcs $X$ is weakly compact iff it has the $\mathcal{G}$-$FPP$ for the class of affine continuous maps $f\colon C\to X$ with weak-approximate fixed point nets.

Given a finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a finitely generated group $G$ and a non-principal ultrafilter $\omega$, we consider a natural subspace, $Cone^{\omega}_{G}(H)$, of the asymptotic cone of $G$ corresponding to $H$. Informally, this subspace consists of the points of the asymptotic cone of $G$ represented by elements of the ultrapower $H^{\omega}$. We show that the connectedness and convexity of $Cone^{\omega}_{G}(H)$ detect natural properties of the embedding of $H$ in $G$. We begin by defining a generalization of the distortion function and show that this function determines whether $Cone^{\omega}_{G}(H)$ is connected. We then show that whether $H$ is strongly quasi-convex in $G$ is detected by a natural convexity property of $Cone^{\omega}_{G}(H)$ in the asymptotic cone of $G$.

We aim at studying the effect of radial motions on the spectrum emitted by moving prominences in the helium resonance lines and at facilitating the interpretation of observations, in order to improve our understanding of these dynamic structures. We develop our non-local thermodynamic equilibrium radiative transfer code formerly used for the study of quiescent prominences. The new numerical code is now able to solve the statistical equilibrium and radiative transfer equations in the non-static case by using velocity-dependent boundary conditions for the solution of the radiative transfer problem. This first study investigates the effects of different physical conditions (temperature, pressure, geometrical thickness) on the emergent helium radiation. The motion of the prominence plasma induces a Doppler dimming effect on the resonance lines of He I and He II. The velocity effects are particularly important for the He II 304 A line as it is mostly formed by resonant diffusion of incident radiation under prominence conditions. The He I resonance lines at 584 and 537 A also show some sensitivity to the motion of the plasma, all the more when thermal emission is not too important in these lines. We also show that it is necessary to consider partial redistribution in frequency for the scattering of the incident radiation. This set of helium lines offers strong diagnostic possibilities that can be exploited with the SOHO spectrometers and with the EIS spectrometer on board the Hinode satellite. The addition of other helium lines and of lines from other elements (in particular hydrogen) in the diagnostics will further enhance the strength of the method.

Voice conversion for speaker anonymization is an emerging field in speech processing research. Many state-of-the-art approaches are based on the resynthesis of the phoneme posteriorgrams (PPG), the fundamental frequency (F0) of the input signal together with modified X-vectors. Our research focuses on the role of F0 for speaker anonymization, which is an understudied area. Utilizing the VoicePrivacy Challenge 2020 framework and its datasets we developed and evaluated eight low-complexity F0 modifications prior resynthesis. We found that modifying the F0 can improve speaker anonymization by as much as 8% with minor word-error rate degradation.

Unlike natural images, medical images often have intrinsic characteristics that can be leveraged for neural network learning. For example, images that belong to different stages of a disease may continuously follow a certain progression pattern. In this paper, we propose a novel method that leverages disease progression learning for medical image recognition. In our method, sequences of images ordered by disease stages are learned by a neural network that consists of a shared vision model for feature extraction and a long short-term memory network for the learning of stage sequences. Auxiliary vision outputs are also included to capture stage features that tend to be discrete along the disease progression. Our proposed method is evaluated on a public diabetic retinopathy dataset, and achieves about 3.3% improvement in disease staging accuracy, compared to the baseline method that does not use disease progression learning.

We present results from a long-term monitoring campaign on the TeV binary LSI +61 303 with VERITAS at energies above 500 GeV, and in the 2-10 keV hard X-ray bands with RXTE and Swift, sampling nine 26.5 day orbital cycles between September 2006 and February 2008. The binary was observed by VERITAS to be variable, with all integrated observations resulting in a detection at the 8.8 sigma (2006/2007) and 7.3 sigma (2007/2008) significance level for emission above 500 GeV. The source was detected during active periods with flux values ranging from 5 to 20% of the Crab Nebula, varying over the course of a single orbital cycle. Additionally, the observations conducted in the 2007-2008 observing season show marginal evidence (at the 3.6 sigma significance level) for TeV emission outside of the apastron passage of the compact object around the Be star. Contemporaneous hard X-ray observations with RXTE and Swift show large variability with flux values typically varying between 0.5 and 3.0*10^-11 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 over a single orbital cycle. The contemporaneous X-ray and TeV data are examined and it is shown that the TeV sampling is not dense enough to detect a correlation between the two bands.

We investigate the influence of an inter-chain coupling on the spiral ground state correlations of a spin-1/2 Heisenberg model consisting of a two-dimensional array of coupled chains with nearest (J1) and frustrating next-nearest neighbor (J2) in-chain exchange couplings. Using the coupled-cluster method we calculate the transition point between the commensurate and the incommensurate (spiral) ground state as well as the quantum pitch angle of the spiral ground state. In addition, we provide a simple empirical formula which describes the relation between the quantum pitch angle and the frustration parameter J2/J1.

Topological Ramsey numbers and countable ordinals

We study the topological version of the partition calculus in the setting of countable ordinals. Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be ordinals and let $k$ be a positive integer. We write $\beta\to_{top}(\alpha,k)^2$ to mean that, for every red-blue coloring of the collection of 2-sized subsets of $\beta$, there is either a red-homogeneous set homeomorphic to $\alpha$ or a blue-homogeneous set of size $k$. The least such $\beta$ is the topological Ramsey number $R^{top}(\alpha,k)$. We prove a topological version of the Erd\H{o}s-Milner theorem, namely that $R^{top}(\alpha,k)$ is countable whenever $\alpha$ is countable. More precisely, we prove that $R^{top}(\omega^{\omega^\beta},k+1)\leq\omega^{\omega^{\beta\cdot k}}$ for all countable ordinals $\beta$ and finite $k$. Our proof is modeled on a new easy proof of a weak version of the Erd\H{o}s-Milner theorem that may be of independent interest. We also provide more careful upper bounds for certain small values of $\alpha$, proving among other results that $R^{top}(\omega+1,k+1)=\omega^k+1$, $R^{top}(\alpha,k)< \omega^\omega$ whenever $\alpha<\omega^2$, $R^{top}(\omega^2,k)\leq\omega^\omega$ and $R^{top}(\omega^2+1,k+2)\leq\omega^{\omega\cdot k}+1$ for all finite $k$. Our computations use a variety of techniques, including a topological pigeonhole principle for ordinals, considerations of a tree ordering based on the Cantor normal form of ordinals, and some ultrafilter arguments.

By the sometimes so-called MAIN THEOREM of Recursive Analysis, every computable real function is necessarily continuous. Weihrauch and Zheng (TCS'2000), Brattka (MLQ'2005), and Ziegler (ToCS'2006) have considered different relaxed notions of computability to cover also discontinuous functions. The present work compares and unifies these approaches. This is based on the concept of the JUMP of a representation: both a TTE-counterpart to the well known recursion-theoretic jump on Kleene's Arithmetical Hierarchy of hypercomputation: and a formalization of revising computation in the sense of Shoenfield. We also consider Markov and Banach/Mazur oracle-computation of discontinuous fu nctions and characterize the computational power of Type-2 nondeterminism to coincide with the first level of the Analytical Hierarchy.

Herschel/HIFI Spectral Mapping of C$^+$, CH$^+$, and CH in Orion BN/KL: The Prevailing Role of Ultraviolet Irradiation in CH$^+$ Formation

The CH$^+$ ion is a key species in the initial steps of interstellar carbon chemistry. Its formation in diverse environments where it is observed is not well understood, however, because the main production pathway is so endothermic (4280 K) that it is unlikely to proceed at the typical temperatures of molecular clouds. We investigation CH$^+$ formation with the first velocity-resolved spectral mapping of the CH$^+$ $J=1-0, 2-1$ rotational transitions, three sets of CH $\Lambda$-doubled triplet lines, $^{12}$C$^+$ and $^{13}$C$^+$, and CH$_3$OH 835~GHz E-symmetry Q branch transitions, obtained with Herschel/HIFI over $\approx$12 arcmin$^2$ centered on the Orion BN/KL source. We present the spatial morphologies and kinematics, cloud boundary conditions, excitation temperatures, column densities, and $^{12}$C$^+$ optical depths. Emission from C$^+$, CH$^+$, and CH is indicated to arise in the diluted gas, outside of the explosive, dense BN/KL outflow. Our models show that UV-irradiation provides favorable conditions for steady-state production of CH$^+$ in this environment. Surprisingly, no spatial or kinematic correspondences of these species are found with H$_2$ S(1) emission tracing shocked gas in the outflow. We propose that C$^+$ is being consumed by rapid production of CO to explain the lack of C$^+$ and CH$^+$ in the outflow, and that fluorescence provides the reservoir of H$_2$ excited to higher ro-vibrational and rotational levels. Hence, in star-forming environments containing sources of shocks and strong UV radiation, a description of CH$^+$ formation and excitation conditions is incomplete without including the important --- possibly dominant --- role of UV irradiation.

We study the collision of two Bose-Einstein condensates with pure dipolar interaction. A stationary pure dipolar condensate is known to be stable when the atom number is below a critical value. However, collapse can occur during the collision between two condensates due to local density fluctuations even if the total atom number is only a fraction of the critical value. Using full three-dimensional numerical simulations, we observe the collapse induced by local density fluctuations. For the purpose of future experiments, we present the time dependence of the density distribution, energy per particle and the maximal density of the condensate. We also discuss the collapse time as a function of the relative phase between the two condensates.

A polyhedral product is a natural subspace of a Cartesian product that is specified by a simplicial complex. The modern formalism arose as a generalization of the spaces known as moment-angle complexes which were developed within the nascent subject of toric topology. This field, which began as a topological approach to toric geometry and aspects of symplectic geometry, has expanded rapidly in recent years. The investigation of polyhedral products and their homotopy theoretic properties has developed to the point where they are studied in various fields of mathematics far removed from their origin. In this survey, we provide a brief historical overview of the development of this subject, summarize many of the main results and describe applications.

The notion of a \emph{$G$-completely reducible} subgroup is important in the study of algebraic groups and their subgroup structure. It generalizes the usual idea of complete reducibility from representation theory: a subgroup $H$ of a general linear group $G= {\rm GL}_n(k)$ is $G$-completely reducible if and only if the inclusion map $i\colon H\rightarrow {\rm GL}_n(k)$ is a completely reducible representation of $H$. In these notes I give an introduction to the theory of complete reducibility and its applications, and explain an approach to the subject using geometric invariant theory.

We point out that the observed CP violation in Bd - bar{Bd} mixing, taking into account the measured ratio Delta Md / Delta Ms, the recently improved lattice value of the non-perturbative parameter BK and an additional effective suppression factor kappa_epsilon ~= 0.92 in epsilon_K neglected sofar in most analyses, may be insufficient to describe the measured value of epsilon_K within the Standard Model (SM), thus hinting at new CP violating contributions to the K - bar{K} and/or Bd - bar{Bd} systems. Furthermore, assuming that Delta Md / Delta Ms is SM-like, the signs and the magnitudes of new physics effects in epsilon_K and in the CP asymmetries S_{psi Ks} and S_{psi phi} may turn out to be correlated. For example, in a scenario with new CP-phases in Bd and Bs mixings being approximately equal and negative, a common new phase ~= - 5 degrees could remove the tension between epsilon_K and S_{psi Ks} present in the SM and simultaneously accommodate, at least partly, the recent claim of S_{psi phi} being much larger than the SM expectation. We emphasize the importance of precise determinations of Vcb, BK, FK and xi_s, to which the parameter epsilon_K and its correlation with the CP violation in the Bd - bar{Bd} system are very sensitive.

This paper constructs a cirquent calculus system and proves its soundness and completeness with respect to the semantics of computability logic (see http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~giorgi/cl.html). The logical vocabulary of the system consists of negation, parallel conjunction, parallel disjunction, branching recurrence, and branching corecurrence. The article is published in two parts, with (the previous) Part I containing preliminaries and a soundness proof, and (the present) Part II containing a completeness proof.

Bayesian, classical, and extended maximum likelihood approaches to estimation of upper limits in experiments with small numbers of signal events are surveyed. The discussion covers only experiments whose outcomes are well described by a Poisson statistic. A new approach, based on the statistical significance of a signal rather than on the number of events in the signal region, is proposed. A toy model and an example of a recent search for the lepton number violating decay $\tau\to\mu\gamma$ are used to illustrate application of the discussed techniques.

Finding Minimal Cost Herbrand Models with Branch-Cut-and-Price

Given (1) a set of clauses $T$ in some first-order language $\cal L$ and (2) a cost function $c : B_{{\cal L}} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{+}$, mapping each ground atom in the Herbrand base $B_{{\cal L}}$ to a non-negative real, then the problem of finding a minimal cost Herbrand model is to either find a Herbrand model $\cal I$ of $T$ which is guaranteed to minimise the sum of the costs of true ground atoms, or establish that there is no Herbrand model for $T$. A branch-cut-and-price integer programming (IP) approach to solving this problem is presented. Since the number of ground instantiations of clauses and the size of the Herbrand base are both infinite in general, we add the corresponding IP constraints and IP variables `on the fly' via `cutting' and `pricing' respectively. In the special case of a finite Herbrand base we show that adding all IP variables and constraints from the outset can be advantageous, showing that a challenging Markov logic network MAP problem can be solved in this way if encoded appropriately.

The Semantics of Rank Polymorphism

Iverson's APL and its descendants (such as J, K and FISh) are examples of the family of "rank-polymorphic" programming languages. The principal control mechanism of such languages is the general lifting of functions that operate on arrays of rank (or dimension) $r$ to operate on arrays of any higher rank $r' > r$. We present a core, functional language, Remora, that captures this mechanism, and develop both a formal, dynamic semantics for the language, and an accompanying static, rank-polymorphic type system for the language. Critically, the static semantics captures the shape-based lifting mechanism of the language. We establish the usual progress and preservation properties for the type system, showing that it is sound, which means that "array shape" errors cannot occur at run time in a well-typed program. Our type system uses dependent types, including an existential type abstraction which permits programs to operate on arrays whose shape or rank is computed dynamically; however, it is restricted enough to permit static type checking. The rank-polymorphic computational paradigm is unusual in that the types of arguments affect the dynamic execution of the program -- they are what drive the rank-polymorphic distribution of a function across arrays of higher rank. To highlight this property, we additionally present a dynamic semantics for a partially erased variant of the fully-typed language and show that a computation performed with a fully-typed term stays in lock step with the computation performed with its partially erased term. The residual types thus precisely characterise the type information that is needed by the dynamic semantics, a property useful for the (eventual) construction of efficient compilers for rank-polymorphic languages.

The Spitzer Space Telescope allows for the first time to search systematically for very low luminosity (= 0.1 L_sun) objects (VeLLOs) associated with dense molecular cores. They may be the first candidate Class 0 sources with sub-stellar masses. We describe such a source in the dense molecular core L1148. VeLLO natal cores show properties that are unusual for star-forming cores. The low luminosity and in some cases the lack of prominent outflow could be the result of the small gas supply near the VeLLO.

Autonomous driving (AD) and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) increasingly utilize deep neural networks (DNNs) for improved perception or planning. Nevertheless, DNNs are quite brittle when the data distribution during inference deviates from the data distribution during training. This represents a challenge when deploying in partly unknown environments like in the case of ADAS. At the same time, the standard confidence of DNNs remains high even if the classification reliability decreases. This is problematic since following motion control algorithms consider the apparently confident prediction as reliable even though it might be considerably wrong. To reduce this problem real-time capable confidence estimation is required that better aligns with the actual reliability of the DNN classification. Additionally, the need exists for black-box confidence estimation to enable the homogeneous inclusion of externally developed components to an entire system. In this work we explore this use case and introduce the neighborhood confidence (NHC) which estimates the confidence of an arbitrary DNN for classification. The metric can be used for black-box systems since only the top-1 class output is required and does not need access to the gradients, the training dataset or a hold-out validation dataset. Evaluation on different data distributions, including small in-domain distribution shifts, out-of-domain data or adversarial attacks, shows that the NHC performs better or on par with a comparable method for online white-box confidence estimation in low data regimes which is required for real-time capable AD/ADAS.

While much is known about repulsive quantum impurity models, significantly less attention has been devoted to their attractive counterparts. This motivated us to study the attractive SU(N) Anderson impurity model. While for the repulsive case, the phase diagram features mild N dependence and the ground state is always a Fermi liquid, in the attractive case a Kosterlitz-Thouless charge localization phase transition is revealed for N > 2. Beyond a critical value of attractive interaction an abrupt jump appears in the number of particles at the impurity site, and a singular Fermi liquid state emerges, where the scattering of quasiparticles is found to exhibit power law behavior with fractional power. The capacity diverges exponentially at the quantum critical point, signaling the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.

We present measurements from Brookhaven Experiment 864 of neutron invariant multiplicity in 11.5 A GeV/c Au+Pb collisions. The measurements span a rapidity range from center-of-mass to beam rapidity (y(beam)=3.2) and are presented as a function of event centrality. The results are compared with E864 measurements of proton invariant multiplicity and an average n/p ratio at hadronic freeze-out of 1.19+-.08 is determined for the rapidity range y=1.6 to y=2.4. We discuss briefly the implications of this ratio within a simple equilibrium model of the collision system.

A framework for structured linearizations of matrix polynomials in various bases

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
We present a framework for the construction of linearizations for scalar and matrix polynomials based on dual bases which, in the case of orthogonal polynomials, can be described by the associated recurrence relations. The framework provides an extension of the classical linearization theory for polynomials expressed in non-monomial bases and allows to represent polynomials expressed in product families, that is as a linear combination of elements of the form $\phi_i(\lambda) \psi_j(\lambda)$, where $\{ \phi_i(\lambda) \}$ and $\{ \psi_j(\lambda) \}$ can either be polynomial bases or polynomial families which satisfy some mild assumptions. We show that this general construction can be used for many different purposes. Among them, we show how to linearize sums of polynomials and rational functions expressed in different bases. As an example, this allows to look for intersections of functions interpolated on different nodes without converting them to the same basis. We then provide some constructions for structured linearizations for $\star$-even and $\star$-palindromic matrix polynomials. The extensions of these constructions to $\star$-odd and $\star$-antipalindromic of odd degree is discussed and follows immediately from the previous results.

The Galilean conformal algebra has recently been realised in the study of the non-relativistic limit of the AdS/CFT conjecture. This was obtained by a systematic parametric group contraction of the parent relativistic conformal field theory. In this paper, we extend the analysis to include supersymmetry. We work at the level of the co-ordinates in superspace to construct the N=1 Super Galilean conformal algebra. One of the interesting outcomes of the analysis is that one is able to naturally extend the finite algebra to an infinite one. This looks structurally similar to the N=1 superconformal algebra in two dimensions, but is different. We also comment on the extension of our construction to cases of higher $N$.

We have measured the tunneling density of states (DOS) in a superconductor carrying a supercurrent or exposed to an external magnetic field. The pair correlations are weakened by the supercurrent, leading to a modification of the DOS and to a reduction of the gap. As predicted by the theory of superconductivity in diffusive metals, we find that this effect is similar to that of an external magnetic field.

Based on the interplay of theory and experiment, a large new family of filled group 9 (Co, Rh and Ir) skutterudites is designed and synthesized. The new materials fill the empty cages in the structures of the known binary CoSb3, RhSb3 and IrSb3 skutterudites with alkaline, alkaline earth, and rare earth atoms to create compounds of the type AyB4X12; A atoms fill the cages to a fraction y, B are the group 9 transition metals, and X is a mixture of electronegative main group elements chosen to achieve chemical stability by adjusting the electron counts to electron-precise values. Forty-three new compounds are reported, antimony-tin and phosphorous-silicon based, with 63 compositional variations presented. The new family of compounds is large and general. The results described here can be extended to the synthesis of hundreds of new group 9 filled skutterudites.

Given a holomorphic line bundle over the complex affine quadric $Q^2$, we investigate its Stein, SU(2)-equivariant disc bundles. Up to equivariant biholomorphism, these are all contained in a maximal one, say $\Omega_{max}$. By removing the zero section to $\Omega_{max}$ one obtains the unique Stein, SU(2)-equivariant, punctured disc bundle over $Q^2$ which contains entire curves. All other such punctured disc bundles are shown to be Kobayashi hyperbolic.

We go a step further in the search for a consistent and realistic supergravity model of large-field inflation by building a class of models with the following features: during slow-roll, all the scalar fields other than the inflaton are frozen by large inflaton-dependent masses or removed from the spectrum; at the end of inflation, supersymmetry is spontaneously broken with naturally vanishing classical vacuum energy. We achieve this by combining some geometrical properties of the Kaehler potential with the consistent use of a single nilpotent chiral superfield, in one-to-one correspondence with the supersymmetry-breaking direction in field space at the vacuum.

In the present article, we study the Hawking radiation (HR) of spin-1 particles -- so-called vector particles -- from a three dimensional (3D) rotating black hole with scalar hair (RBHWSH) using Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) ansatz. Putting the Proca equation amalgamated with the WKB approximation in process, the tunneling spectrum of vector particles is obtained. We recover the standard Hawking temperature corresponding to the emission of these particles from RBHWSH.

In this paper we show that there exists a new symmetry in the relativistic wave equation for a scalar field in arbitrary dimensions. This symmetry is related to redefinitions of the metric tensor which implement a map between non-equivalent manifolds. It is possible to interpret these transformations as a generalization of the conformal transformations. In addition, one can show that this set of manifolds together with the transformation connecting its metrics forms a group. As long as the scalar field dynamics is invariant under these transformations, there immediately appears an ambiguity concerning the definition of the underlying background geometry.

This study points to a novel way for an ultrafast generation and tuning of a unidirectional nonlinear spin Hall current by means of subpicosecond laser pulses of optical vortices. When interacting with matter, the optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) carried by the vortex and quantified by its topological charge is transferred to the charge carriers. The residual spin-orbital coupling in the sample together with confinement effects allow exploiting the absorbed optical OAM for spatio-temporally controlling the spin channels. Both the non-linear spin Hall current and the dynamical spin Hall angle increase for a higher optical topological charge. The reason is the transfer of a higher amount of OAM and the enhancement of the effective spin-orbit interaction strength. No bias voltage is needed. We demonstrate that the spin Hall current can be all-optically generated in an open circuit geometry for ring-structured samples. These results follow from a full-fledged propagation of the spin-dependent quantum dynamics on a time-space grid coupled to the phononic environment. The findings point to a versatile and controllable tool for the ultrafast generation of spin accumulations with a variety of applications such as a source for ultrafast spin transfer torque and charge and spin current pulse emitter.

Objectives.--To estimate the basic reproduction number of the Wuhan novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). Methods.--Based on the susceptible-exposed-infected-removed (SEIR) compartment model and the assumption that the infectious cases with symptoms occurred before January 25, 2020 are resulted from free propagation without intervention, we estimate the basic reproduction number of 2019-nCoV according to the reported confirmed cases and suspected cases, as well as the theoretical estimated number of infected cases by other research teams, together with some epidemiological determinants learned from the severe acute respiratory syndrome. Results The basic reproduction number falls between 2.8 to 3.3 by using the real-time reports on the number of 2019-nCoV infected cases from People's Daily in China, and falls between 3.2 and 3.9 on the basis of the predicted number of infected cases from colleagues. Conclusions.--The early transmission ability of 2019-nCoV is closed to or slightly higher than SARS. It is a controllable disease with moderate-high transmissibility. Timely and effective control measures are needed to suppress the further transmissions. Notes Added.--Using a newly reported epidemiological determinants for early 2019-nCoV, the estimated basic reproduction number is in the range [2.2,3.0].

(Abridged) The formation and evolution of star cluster populations are related to the galactic environment. Cluster formation is governed by processes acting on galactic scales, and star cluster disruption is driven by the tidal field. In this paper, we present a self-consistent model for the formation and evolution of star cluster populations, for which we combine an N-body/SPH galaxy evolution code with semi-analytic models for star cluster evolution. The model includes star formation, feedback, stellar evolution, and star cluster disruption by two-body relaxation and tidal shocks. We apply the model by simulating a suite of 9 isolated disc galaxies and 24 galaxy mergers. The evolutionary histories of individual clusters in these simulations are discussed to illustrate how the environment of clusters changes in time and space. The resulting variability of the disruption rate with time and space affects the properties of star cluster populations. The combined effect of clusters escaping their dense formation sites (`cluster migration') and the preferential disruption of clusters residing in dense environments (`natural selection') implies that the mean disruption rate of the population decreases with cluster age. This affects the slope of the cluster age distribution, which becomes a function of the star formation rate density. The evolutionary histories of clusters in a galaxy merger vary widely and determine which clusters survive the merger. This impacts the age distributions and the locations of the surviving clusters at all times during a merger. We conclude that accounting for the interplay between the formation, disruption, and orbital histories of clusters enables a more sophisticated interpretation of observed properties of cluster populations, thereby extending the role of cluster populations as tracers of galaxy evolution.

Faraday complexity describes whether a spectropolarimetric observation has simple or complex magnetic structure. Quickly determining the Faraday complexity of a spectropolarimetric observation is important for processing large, polarised radio surveys. Finding simple sources lets us build rotation measure grids, and finding complex sources lets us follow these sources up with slower analysis techniques or further observations. We introduce five features that can be used to train simple, interpretable machine learning classifiers for estimating Faraday complexity. We train logistic regression and extreme gradient boosted tree classifiers on simulated polarised spectra using our features, analyse their behaviour, and demonstrate our features are effective for both simulated and real data. This is the first application of machine learning methods to real spectropolarimetry data. With 95 per cent accuracy on simulated ASKAP data and 90 per cent accuracy on simulated ATCA data, our method performs comparably to state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks while being simpler and easier to interpret. Logistic regression trained with our features behaves sensibly on real data and its outputs are useful for sorting polarised sources by apparent Faraday complexity.

In this paper, the b quark pair production events are analyzed as a source of neutral Higgs bosons of the two Higgs doublet model type I at linear colliders. The production mechanism is e+e- -> Z/gamma -> HA -> bbbb assuming a fully hadronic final state. The analysis aim is to identify both scalar and pseudo-scalar Higgs bosons in different benchmark points accommodating moderate boson masses. Due to pair production of Higgs bosons, the analysis is most suitable for a linear collider operating at sqrt(s) = 1 TeV. Results show that in selected benchmark points, signal peaks are observable in the b-jet pair invariant mass distributions at integrated luminosity of 500 fb-1.

A theory for the microscopic structure and the vibrational properties of soft sphere glass at finite temperature is presented. With an effective potential, derived here, the phase diagram and vibrational properties are worked out around the Maxwell critical point at zero temperature $T$ and pressure $p$. Variational arguments and effective medium theory identically predict a non-trivial temperature scale $T^*\sim p^{(2-a)/(1-a)}$ with $a \approx 0.17$ such that low-energy vibrational properties are hard-sphere like for $T \gtrsim T^*$, and zero-temperature soft-sphere like otherwise. However, due to crossovers in the equation of state relating $T$, $p$, and the packing fraction $\phi$, these two regimes lead to four regions where scaling behaviors differ when expressed in terms of $T$ and $\phi$. Scaling predictions are presented for the mean-squared displacement, characteristic frequency, shear modulus, and characteristic elastic length in all regions of the phase diagram.

We estimate the Tevatron Run II potential for top and bottom squark searches. We find an impressive reach in several of the possible discovery channels. We also study some new channels which may arise in non-conventional supersymmetry models. In each case we rely on a detailed Monte Carlo simulation of the collider events and the CDF detector performance in Run I.

Biluminescent organic emitters show simultaneous fluorescence and phosphorescence at room temperature. So far, the optimization of the room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) in these materials has drawn the attention of research. However, the continuous wave operation of these emitters will consequently turn them into systems with vastly imbalanced singlet and triplet populations, which is due to the respective excited state lifetimes. This study reports on the exciton dynamics of the biluminophore NPB (N,N-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N-diphenyl-(1,1-biphenyl)-4,4-diamine). In the extreme case, the singlet and triplet exciton lifetimes stretch from 3 ns to 300 ms, respectively. Through sample engineering and oxygen quenching experiments, the triplet exciton density can be controlled over several orders of magnitude allowing to studying exciton interactions between singlet and triplet manifolds. The results show, that singlet-triplet annihilation reduces the overall biluminescence efficiency already at moderate excitation levels. Additionally, the presented system represents an illustrative role model to study excitonic effects in organic materials.

With the goal of making deep learning more label-efficient, a growing number of papers have been studying active learning (AL) for deep models. However, there are a number of issues in the prevalent experimental settings, mainly stemming from a lack of unified implementation and benchmarking. Issues in the current literature include sometimes contradictory observations on the performance of different AL algorithms, unintended exclusion of important generalization approaches such as data augmentation and SGD for optimization, a lack of study of evaluation facets like the labeling efficiency of AL, and little or no clarity on the scenarios in which AL outperforms random sampling (RS). In this work, we present a unified re-implementation of state-of-the-art AL algorithms in the context of image classification via our new open-source AL toolkit DISTIL, and we carefully study these issues as facets of effective evaluation. On the positive side, we show that AL techniques are $2\times$ to $4\times$ more label-efficient compared to RS with the use of data augmentation. Surprisingly, when data augmentation is included, there is no longer a consistent gain in using BADGE, a state-of-the-art approach, over simple uncertainty sampling. We then do a careful analysis of how existing approaches perform with varying amounts of redundancy and number of examples per class. Finally, we provide several insights for AL practitioners to consider in future work, such as the effect of the AL batch size, the effect of initialization, the importance of retraining the model at every round, and other insights.

The paper begins with short proofs of classical theorems by Frobenius and (resp.) Zorn on associative and (resp.) alternative real division algebras. These theorems characterize the first three (resp. four) Cayley-Dickson algebras. Then we introduce and study the class of real unital nonassociative algebras in which the subalgebra generated by any nonscalar element is isomorphic to C. We call them locally complex algebras. In particular, we describe all such algebras that have dimension at most 4. Our main motivation, however, for introducing locally complex algebras is that this concept makes it possible for us to extend Frobenius' and Zorn's theorems in a way that it also involves the fifth Cayley-Dickson algebra, the sedenions.

Long-term metric self-localization is an essential capability of autonomous mobile robots, but remains challenging for vision-based systems due to appearance changes caused by lighting, weather, or seasonal variations. While experience-based mapping has proven to be an effective technique for bridging the `appearance gap,' the number of experiences required for reliable metric localization over days or months can be very large, and methods for reducing the necessary number of experiences are needed for this approach to scale. Taking inspiration from color constancy theory, we learn a nonlinear RGB-to-grayscale mapping that explicitly maximizes the number of inlier feature matches for images captured under different lighting and weather conditions, and use it as a pre-processing step in a conventional single-experience localization pipeline to improve its robustness to appearance change. We train this mapping by approximating the target non-differentiable localization pipeline with a deep neural network, and find that incorporating a learned low-dimensional context feature can further improve cross-appearance feature matching. Using synthetic and real-world datasets, we demonstrate substantial improvements in localization performance across day-night cycles, enabling continuous metric localization over a 30-hour period using a single mapping experience, and allowing experience-based localization to scale to long deployments with dramatically reduced data requirements.

When multiple species interact with an electrostatic ion acoustic wave, they can exchange momentum, despite the lack of momentum in the field itself. The resulting force on the electrons can have a curl, and thus give rise to compensating electric fields with curl on magnetohydrodynamic timescales. As a result, a magnetic field can be generated. Surprisingly, in some astrophysical settings, this mechanism can seed magnetic fields with growth rates even larger than through the traditional Biermann battery.

Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected unweighted graph on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. We address the problem of sensitivity oracle for all-pairs mincuts in $G$ defined as follows. Build a compact data structure that, on receiving any pair of vertices $s,t\in V$ and failure (or insertion) of any edge as query, can efficiently report the mincut between $s$ and $t$ after the failure (or the insertion). To the best of our knowledge, there exists no data structure for this problem which takes $o(mn)$ space and a non-trivial query time. We present the following results. - Our first data structure occupies ${\cal O}(n^2)$ space and guarantees ${\cal O}(1)$ query time to report the value of resulting $(s,t)$-mincut upon failure (or insertion) of any edge. Moreover, the set of vertices defining a resulting $(s,t)$-mincut after the update can be reported in ${\cal O}(n)$ time which is worst-case optimal. - Our second data structure optimizes space at the expense of increased query time. It takes ${\cal O}(m)$ space -- which is also the space taken by $G$. The query time is ${\cal O}(\min(m,n c_{s,t}))$ where $c_{s,t}$ is the value of the mincut between $s$ and $t$ in $G$. This query time is faster by a factor of $\Omega(\min(m^{1/3},\sqrt{n}))$ compared to the best known deterministic algorithm to compute a $(s,t)$-mincut from scratch. - If we are only interested in knowing if failure (or insertion) of an edge changes the value of $(s,t)$-mincut, we can distribute our ${\cal O}(n^2)$ space data structure evenly among $n$ vertices. For any failed (or inserted) edge we only require the data structures stored at its endpoints to determine if the value of $(s,t)$-mincut has changed for any $s,t \in V$.

We study long-time properties of reversible reaction-diffusion systems of type A + B <-> C by means of perturbation expansion in powers of 1/t (inverse of time). For the case of equal diffusion coefficients we present exact formulas for the asymptotic forms of reactant concentrations and a complete, recursive expression for an arbitrary term of the expansions. Taking an appropriate limit we show that by studying reversible reactions one can obtain "singular" solutions typical of irreversible reactions.

We study an optimal control problem on infinite horizon for a controlled stochastic differential equation driven by Brownian motion, with a discounted reward functional. The equation may have memory or delay effects in the coefficients, both with respect to state and control, and the noise can be degenerate. We prove that the value, i.e. the supremum of the reward functional over all admissible controls, can be represented by the solution of an associated backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) driven by the Brownian motion and an auxiliary independent Poisson process and having a sign constraint on jumps. In the Markovian case when the coefficients depend only on the present values of the state and the control, we prove that the BSDE can be used to construct the solution, in the sense of viscosity theory, to the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman partial differential equation of elliptic type on the whole space, so that it provides us with a Feynman-Kac representation in this fully nonlinear context. The method of proof consists in showing that the value of the original problem is the same as the value of an auxiliary optimal control problem (called randomized), where the control process is replaced by a fixed pure jump process and maximization is taken over a class of absolutely continuous changes of measures which affect the stochastic intensity of the jump process but leave the law of the driving Brownian motion unchanged.

A joint characterisation of the controllability and observability of a particular kind of discrete system has been developed. The key idea of the procedure can be reduced to a correct choice of the sampling sequence. This freedom, owing to the arbitrary choice of the sampling instants, is used to improve the sensitivity of system controllability and observability, by exploiting an adequate geometric structure. Some qualitative examples are presented for illustrative purposes.

The convergence of Feigenabaum $\alpha$ and $\delta$ exponents for the aforementioned mapping is investigated for the period doubling and three cyclic window. We regarded the Lyapunov exponent as an order parameter for the characterization of the model and discussed its dependence on temperature and magnetic field. Arnold tongues analogs with winding numbers w=1/2, w=2/4 and w=1/3 (in the three cyclic window) are constructed for Q<2. The critical temperatures of the model are discussed and their dependence on Q is investigated. We also proposed an approximate method for constructing Arnold tongues via Feigenbaum $\delta$ exponent.

Recent breakthroughs in deep learning (DL) have led to the emergence of many intelligent mobile applications and services, but in the meanwhile also pose unprecedented computing challenges on resource-constrained mobile devices. This paper builds a collaborative deep inference system between a resource-constrained mobile device and a powerful edge server, aiming at joining the power of both on-device processing and computation offloading. The basic idea of this system is to partition a deep neural network (DNN) into a front-end part running on the mobile device and a back-end part running on the edge server, with the key challenge being how to locate the optimal partition point to minimize the end-to-end inference delay. Unlike existing efforts on DNN partitioning that rely heavily on a dedicated offline profiling stage to search for the optimal partition point, our system has a built-in online learning module, called Autodidactic Neurosurgeon (ANS), to automatically learn the optimal partition point on-the-fly. Therefore, ANS is able to closely follow the changes of the system environment by generating new knowledge for adaptive decision making. The core of ANS is a novel contextual bandit learning algorithm, called $\mu$LinUCB, which not only has provable theoretical learning performance guarantee but also is ultra-lightweight for easy real-world implementation. We implement our system on a video stream object detection testbed to validate the design of ANS and evaluate its performance. The experiments show that ANS significantly outperforms state-of-the-art benchmarks in terms of tracking system changes and reducing the end-to-end inference delay.

A patterned structure of monolithic hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) on a glass substrate, which can enhance the emission of the embedded single photon emitters (SPEs), is useful for onchip single-photon sources of high-quality. Here, we design and demonstrate a monolithic hBN metasurface with quasi-bound states in the continuum mode at emission wavelength with ultrahigh Q values to enhance fluorescence emission of SPEs in hBN. Because of ultrahigh electric field enhancement inside the proposed hBN metasurface, an ultrahigh Purcell factor (3.3*10^4) is achieved. In addition, the Purcell factor can also be strongly enhanced in most part of the hBN structure, which makes the hBN metasurface suitable for e.g. monolithic quantum photonics.

When facing a very large stream of data, it is often desirable to extract most important statistics online in a short time and using small memory. For example, one may want to quickly find the most influential users generating posts online or check if the stream contains many identical elements. In this paper, we study streams containing insertions and deletions of elements from a possibly large set $N$ of size $|N| = n$, that are being processed by online deterministic algorithms. At any point in the stream the algorithm may be queried to output elements of certain frequency in the already processed stream. More precisely, the most frequent elements in the stream so far. The output is considered correct if the returned elements it contains all elements with frequency greater than a given parameter $\varphi$ and no element with frequency smaller than $\varphi-\epsilon$. We present an efficient online deterministic algorithm for solving this problem using $O(\min(n, \frac{polylog(n)}{\epsilon}))$ memory and $O(polylog(n))$ time per processing and outputting an element. It is the first such algorithm as the previous algorithms were either randomized, or processed elements in substantially larger time $\Omega(\min(n, \frac{\log n}{\epsilon}))$, or handled only insertions and required two passes over the stream (i.e., were not truly online). Our solution is almost-optimally scalable (with only a polylogarithmic overhead) and does not require randomness or scanning twice through the stream. We complement the algorithm analysis with a lower bound $\Omega(\min(n, \frac{1}{\epsilon}))$ on required memory.

We propose a new technique, the use of FBGs (fiber Bragg gratings), for accurate, easy and low cost wavelength calibration of GAIA, RAVE and follow-ups spectra at local Observatories. FBGs mark the spectra with absorption lines, freely defined in number and position during the fibers manufacturing. The process goes in parallel with the science exposure and through the same optical train and path, thus ensuring the maximum return in wavelength calibration accuracy. Plans to manufacture and test FBGs for the CaII/Paschen region are underway at the Astronomical Observatory of Padova.

Knowledge of molecular structure is paramount in understanding, and ultimately influencing, chemical reactivity. For nearly a century, diffractive imaging has been used to identify the structures of many biologically-relevant gas-phase molecules with atomic (i.e. Angstrom, A; 1 A = 10$^{-10}$ m) spatial resolution. Unravelling the mechanisms of chemical reactions requires the capability to record multiple well-resolved snapshots of the molecular structure as it is evolving on the nuclear (i.e. femtosecond, fs; 1 fs = 10$^{-15}$ s) timescale. We present the latest, state-of-the-art ultrafast electron diffraction methods used to retrieve the molecular structure of gas-phase molecules with Angstrom and femtosecond spatio-temporal resolution. We first provide a historical and theoretical background to elastic electron scattering in its application to structural retrieval, followed by details of field-free and field-dressed ultrafast electron diffraction techniques. We discuss the application of these ultrafast methods to time-resolving chemical reactions in real-time, before providing a future outlook of the field and the challenges that exist today and in the future.

In recent years, the study of heat to work conversion has been re-invigorated by nanotechnology. Steady-state devices do this conversion without any macroscopic moving parts, through steady-state flows of microscopic particles such as electrons, photons, phonons, etc. This review aims to introduce some of the theories used to describe these steady-state flows in a variety of mesoscopic or nanoscale systems. These theories are introduced in the context of idealized machines which convert heat into electrical power (heat-engines) or convert electrical power into a heat flow (refrigerators). In this sense, the machines could be categorized as thermoelectrics, although this should be understood to include photovoltaics when the heat source is the sun. As quantum mechanics is important for most such machines, they fall into the field of quantum thermodynamics. In many cases, the machines we consider have few degrees of freedom, however the reservoirs of heat and work that they interact with are assumed to be macroscopic. This review discusses different theories which can take into account different aspects of mesoscopic and nanoscale physics, such as coherent quantum transport, magnetic-field induced effects (including topological ones such as the quantum Hall effect), and single electron charging effects. It discusses the efficiency of thermoelectric conversion, and the thermoelectric figure of merit. More specifically, the theories presented are (i) linear response theory with or without magnetic fields, (ii) Landauer scattering theory in the linear response regime and far from equilibrium, (iii) Green-Kubo formula for strongly interacting systems within the linear response regime, (iv) rate equation analysis for small quantum machines with or without .....

A new tidy data structure to support exploration and modeling of temporal data

Mining temporal data for information is often inhibited by a multitude of formats: irregular or multiple time intervals, point events that need aggregating, multiple observational units or repeated measurements on multiple individuals, and heterogeneous data types. On the other hand, the software supporting time series modeling and forecasting, makes strict assumptions on the data to be provided, typically requiring a matrix of numeric data with implicit time indexes. Going from raw data to model-ready data is painful. This work presents a cohesive and conceptual framework for organizing and manipulating temporal data, which in turn flows into visualization, modeling and forecasting routines. Tidy data principles are extended to temporal data by: (1) mapping the semantics of a dataset into its physical layout; (2) including an explicitly declared index variable representing time; (3) incorporating a "key" comprising single or multiple variables to uniquely identify units over time. This tidy data representation most naturally supports thinking of operations on the data as building blocks, forming part of a "data pipeline" in time-based contexts. A sound data pipeline facilitates a fluent workflow for analyzing temporal data. The infrastructure of tidy temporal data has been implemented in the R package "tsibble".

We report semiconductor to metal-like crossover in temperature dependence of resistivity ($\rho$) due to the switching of charge transport from bulk to surface channel in three-dimensional topological insulator Bi$_{1.5}$Sb$_{0.5}$Te$_{1.7}$Se$_{1.3}$. Unlike earlier studies, a much sharper drop in $\rho$($T$) is observed below the crossover temperature due to the dominant surface conduction. Remarkably, the resistivity of the conducting surface channel follows a rarely observable $T^2$ dependence at low temperature as predicted theoretically for a two-dimensional Fermi liquid system. The field dependence of magnetization shows a cusp-like paramagnetic peak in the susceptibility ($\chi$) at zero field over the diamagnetic background. The peak is found to be robust against temperature and decays linearly with field from its zero-field value. This unique behavior of $\chi$ is associated with the spin-momentum locked topological surface state of Bi$_{1.5}$Sb$_{0.5}$Te$_{1.7}$Se$_{1.3}$. The reconstruction of surface state with time is clearly reflected through the reduction of peak height with the age of the sample.

We prove a moving lemma for the additive and ordinary higher Chow groups of relative $0$-cycles of regular semi-local $k$-schemes essentially of finite type over an infinite perfect field. From this, we show that the cycle classes can be represented by cycles that possess certain finiteness, surjectivity, and smoothness properties. It plays a key role in showing that the crystalline cohomology of smooth varieties can be expressed in terms of algebraic cycles.

In fabricating the first X-Band RDDS (Rounded Damped Detuned Structure) accelerator structure, microwave measurements are made on short groups of discs prior to bonding the discs of the entire structure. The design dispersion curves are compared with the frequency measurements. The theory utilised is based on a circuit model adapted to a short stack of slowly varying non-uniform discs. The model reveals the nature of the modes in the structure and may also be used to refit the experimental data to the parameters in a model of the wakefield given earlier [1]. This method allows a more faithful determination of the wakefield that a beam will experience as it traverses the structure. Results obtained on the frequencies are compared to the original design.

We consider Voevodsky's slice tower for a finite spectrum E in the motivic stable homotopy category over a perfect field k. In case k has finite cohomological dimension (in characteristic two, we also require that k is infinite), we show that the slice tower converges, in that the induced filtration on the bi-graded homotopy sheaves for each term in the tower for E is finite, exhaustive and separated at each stalk. This partially verifies a conjecture of Voevodsky.

Partial wave amplitudes are obtained with the $N/D$ method, which satisfy unitarity, analyticity and approximate crossing symmetry. Comparison with the phase shift data in the J=0 channel favors a scalar resonance near the $\rho$ mass.

Thermodynamical properties of charged AdS black holes with a global monopole still remain obscure. In this paper, we investigate the thermodynamics and phase transition of the black holes in the extended phase space. It is shown that thermodynamical quantities of the black holes exhibit an interesting dependence on the internal global monopole, and they perfectly satisfy both the first law of thermodynamics and Smarr relation. Furthermore, analysis of the local and the global thermodynamical stability manifests that the charged AdS black hole undergoes an elegant phase transition at critical point. Of special interest, critical behaviors of the black holes resemble a Van der Waals liquid-gas system. Our results not only reveal the effect of a global monopole on thermodynamics of AdS black holes, but also further support that Van der Waals-like behavior of the black holes is a universal phenomenon.

We prove that the homology of the mapping class group of any 3-manifold stabilizes under connected sum and boundary connected sum with an arbitrary 3-manifold when both manifolds are compact and orientable. The stabilization also holds for the quotient group by twists along spheres and disks, and includes as particular cases homological stability for symmetric automorphisms of free groups, automorphisms of certain free products, and handlebody mapping class groups. Our methods also apply to manifolds of other dimensions in the case of stabilization by punctures.

Learned Factor Graphs for Inference from Stationary Time Sequences

http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
The design of methods for inference from time sequences has traditionally relied on statistical models that describe the relation between a latent desired sequence and the observed one. A broad family of model-based algorithms have been derived to carry out inference at controllable complexity using recursive computations over the factor graph representing the underlying distribution. An alternative model-agnostic approach utilizes machine learning (ML) methods. Here we propose a framework that combines model-based algorithms and data-driven ML tools for stationary time sequences. In the proposed approach, neural networks are developed to separately learn specific components of a factor graph describing the distribution of the time sequence, rather than the complete inference task. By exploiting stationary properties of this distribution, the resulting approach can be applied to sequences of varying temporal duration. Learned factor graph can be realized using compact neural networks that are trainable using small training sets, or alternatively, be used to improve upon existing deep inference systems. We present an inference algorithm based on learned stationary factor graphs, which learns to implement the sum-product scheme from labeled data, and can be applied to sequences of different lengths. Our experimental results demonstrate the ability of the proposed learned factor graphs to learn to carry out accurate inference from small training sets for sleep stage detection using the Sleep-EDF dataset, as well as for symbol detection in digital communications with unknown channels.

Adaptation to a changing environment: what me Normal?

Predicting the adaptation of populations to a changing environment is crucial to assess the impact of human activities on biodiversity. Many theoretical studies have tackled this issue by modeling the evolution of quantitative traits subject to stabilizing selection around an optimum phenotype, whose value is shifted continuously through time. In this context, the population fate results from the equilibrium distribution of the trait, relative to the moving optimum. Such a distribution may vary with the shape of selection, the system of reproduction, the number of loci, the mutation kernel or their interactions. Here, we develop a methodology that provides quantitative measures of population maladaptation and potential of survival directly from the entire profile of the phenotypic distribution, without any a priori on its shape.We investigate two different models of reproduction (asexual and infinitesimal sexual models of inheritance), with general forms of selection.In particular, we recover that fitness functions such that selection weakens away from the optimum lead to evolutionary tipping points, with an abrupt collapse of the population when the speed of environmental change is too high. Our unified framework furthermore allows highlighting the underlying mechanisms that lead to this phenomenon. More generally, it allows discussing similarities and discrepancies between the two reproduction models, the latter being ultimately explained by different constraints on the evolution of the phenotypic variance. We demonstrate that the mean fitness in the population crucially depends on the shape of the selection function in the sexual infinitesimal model, in contrast with the asexual model.In the asexual model, we also investigate the effect of the mutation kernel and we show that kernels with higher kurtosis tend to reduce maladaptation and improve fitness, especially in fast changing environments.

The aim of this paper is to show the relevance of motivational key concepts in evaluating the use of serious game. This research involves 115 students training with Mecagenius (serious game in mechanical engineering). The results of the exploratory study also confirm the relevance of the use of flow in Education scale (EduFlow) to evaluate the optimal learning experienc ewith a serious game. It also appears that EduFlow is related to specific actions within the school context such as self-efficacy, motivational climate and interest.

Scrupulous theoretical study of 8Be nucleus states, both clustered and non-clustered, is performed over a wide range of the excitation energies. The quantities which characterize the degree of the alpha-clustering of these states: spectroscopic factors, cluster form factors as well as the alpha-decay widths are computed in the framework of an accurate ab initio approach developed. Other basic properties of 8Be spectrum: the binding and excitation energies, mean values of the isospin are calculated simultaneously. In the majority of instances the results of the computations turn out to be in a good agreement with the spectroscopic data. A number of predictions are made and corresponding verification experiment is proposed. Prospects of the developed approach for nuclear spectroscopy are demonstrated.

We present line and continuum measurements for 9818 SDSS type-I active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with z le 0.75. The data are used to study the four dimensional space of black hole mass, normalized accretion rate (Ledd), metalicity and redshift. The main results are: 1. Ledd is smaller for larger mass black holes at all redshifts. 2. For a given black hole mass Ledd propto z^gamma or (1+z)^delta where the slope gamma increases with black hole mass. The mean slope is similar to the star formation rate slope over the same redshift interval. 3. The FeII/Hb line ratio is significantly correlated with Ledd. It also shows a weaker negative dependence on redshift. Combined with the known dependence of metalicity on accretion rate, we suggest that the FeII/Hb line ratio is a metalicity indicator. 4. Given the measured accretion rates, the growth times of most AGNs exceed the age of the universe. This suggests past episodes of faster growth for all those sources. Combined with the FeII/Hb result, we conclude that the broad emission lines metalicity goes through cycles and is not a monotonously decreasing function of redshift. 5. FWHM(OIII) is a poor proxy of sigma_* especially for high Ledd. 6. We define a group of narrow line type-I AGNs (NLAGN1s) by their luminosity (or mass) dependent Hb line width. Such objects have Ledd>0.25 and they comprise 8% of the type-I population. Other interesting results include negative Baldwin relationships for EW(Hb) and EW(FeII) and a relative increase of the red part of the Hb line with luminosity.

A positive integer is expressed as a sum of squares of positive integers in a unique way applying a special technique. The expression, thus obtained is resolved into two factors using the concept of the Clifford algebra. This technique is applied on a set of positive integers. Using these factors, a new mean of the set of integers, different from the arithmetic mean, is developed. A detailed discussion involving Cl(0,3) as an example is presented. The new mean bears the imprint of degree of randomness of the data set. More random is the data set more away is the new mean from the arithmetic mean. It is suggested that this averaging technique may be useful in signal and image processing with some special gain. Keywords New mean, Clifford algebra.

We introduce Property (NL), which indicates that a group does not admit any (isometric) action on a hyperbolic space with loxodromic elements. In other words, such a group $G$ can only admit elliptic or horocyclic hyperbolic actions, and consequently its poset of hyperbolic structures $\mathcal{H}(G)$ is trivial. It turns out that many groups satisfy this property; and we initiate the formal study of this phenomenon. Of particular importance is the proof of a dynamical criterion in this paper that ensures that groups with rich actions on compact Hausdorff spaces have Property (NL). These include many Thompson-like groups, such as $V, T$ and even twisted Brin--Thompson groups, which implies that every finitely generated group quasi-isometrically embeds into a finitely generated simple group with Property (NL). We also study the stability of the property under group operations and explore connections to other fixed point properties. In the appendix (by Alessandro Sisto) we describe a construction of cobounded actions on hyperbolic spaces starting from non-cobounded ones that preserves various properties of the initial action.

We revisit from a modern bootstrap perspective the longstanding problem of solving QCD in the large $N$ limit. We derive universal bounds on the effective field theory of massless pions by imposing the full set of positivity constraints that follow from $2 \to 2$ scattering. Some features of our exclusion plots have intriguing connections with hadronic phenomenology. The exclusion boundary exhibits a sharp kink, raising the tantalizing scenario that large $N$ QCD may sit at this kink. We critically examine this possibility, developing in the process a partial analytic understanding of the geometry of the bounds.

The very short time scale variability of TeV $\gamma$-ray emission from active galaxies suggests that the acceleration process of particles and the production of primary $\gamma$-rays likely occurs relatively close to the accretion disk. We calculate the $\gamma$-ray spectra produced in an Inverse Compton $e^\pm$ pair cascade initiated by primary $\gamma$-rays which are injected close to the surface of the accretion disk. Possible synchrotron energy losses of secondary cascade $e^\pm$ pairs are also taken into account. Since the soft radiation field is anisotropic, the resulting $\gamma$-ray spectra strongly depend on the observation angle. We investigate their basic properties for different parameters describing such a model. The model is applied to the misaligned blazar Cen A recently detected in the TeV $\gamma$-rays. We conclude on the site of the $\gamma$-ray emission region in Cen A based on the comparison of the model with the observations of this source in the GeV-TeV energy range.

In the near future, cosmology will enter the wide and deep galaxy survey area allowing high-precision studies of the large scale structure of the universe in three dimensions. To test cosmological models and determine their parameters accurately, it is natural to confront data with exact theoretical expectations expressed in the observational parameter space (angles and redshift). The data-driven galaxy number count fluctuations on redshift shells, can be used to build correlation functions $C(\theta; z_1, z_2)$ on and between shells which can probe the baryonic acoustic oscillations, the distance-redshift distortions as well as gravitational lensing and other relativistic effects. Transforming the model to the data space usually requires the computation of the angular power spectrum $C_\ell(z_1, z_2)$ but this appears as an artificial and inefficient step plagued by apodization issues. In this article we show that it is not necessary and present a compact expression for $C(\theta; z_1, z_2)$ that includes directly the leading density and redshift space distortions terms from the full linear theory. It can be evaluated using a fast integration method based on Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature and Chebyshev polynomial series. This new method to compute the correlation functions without any Limber approximation, allows us to produce and discuss maps of the correlation function directly in the observable space and is a significant step towards disentangling the data from the tested models.

Deep network pruning is an effective method to reduce the storage and computation cost of deep neural networks when applying them to resource-limited devices. Among many pruning granularities, neuron level pruning will remove redundant neurons and filters in the model and result in thinner networks. In this paper, we propose a gradually global pruning scheme for neuron level pruning. In each pruning step, a small percent of neurons were selected and dropped across all layers in the model. We also propose a simple method to eliminate the biases in evaluating the importance of neurons to make the scheme feasible. Compared with layer-wise pruning scheme, our scheme avoid the difficulty in determining the redundancy in each layer and is more effective for deep networks. Our scheme would automatically find a thinner sub-network in original network under a given performance.

Continual Learning (CL) methods focus on accumulating knowledge over time while avoiding catastrophic forgetting. Recently, Wortsman et al. (2020) proposed a CL method, SupSup, which uses a randomly initialized, fixed base network (model) and finds a supermask for each new task that selectively keeps or removes each weight to produce a subnetwork. They prevent forgetting as the network weights are not being updated. Although there is no forgetting, the performance of SupSup is sub-optimal because fixed weights restrict its representational power. Furthermore, there is no accumulation or transfer of knowledge inside the model when new tasks are learned. Hence, we propose ExSSNeT (Exclusive Supermask SubNEtwork Training), that performs exclusive and non-overlapping subnetwork weight training. This avoids conflicting updates to the shared weights by subsequent tasks to improve performance while still preventing forgetting. Furthermore, we propose a novel KNN-based Knowledge Transfer (KKT) module that utilizes previously acquired knowledge to learn new tasks better and faster. We demonstrate that ExSSNeT outperforms strong previous methods on both NLP and Vision domains while preventing forgetting. Moreover, ExSSNeT is particularly advantageous for sparse masks that activate 2-10% of the model parameters, resulting in an average improvement of 8.3% over SupSup. Furthermore, ExSSNeT scales to a large number of tasks (100). Our code is available at https://github.com/prateeky2806/exessnet.

This paper presents an integrated approach that combines trajectory optimization and Artificial Potential Field (APF) method for real-time optimal Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) trajectory planning and dynamic collision avoidance. A minimum-time trajectory optimization problem is formulated with initial and final positions as boundary conditions and collision avoidance as constraints. It is transcribed into a nonlinear programming problem using Chebyshev pseudospectral method. The state and control histories are approximated by using Lagrange polynomials and the collocation points are used to satisfy constraints. A novel sigmoid-type collision avoidance constraint is proposed to overcome the drawbacks of Lagrange polynomial approximation in pseudospectral methods that only guarantees inequality constraint satisfaction only at nodal points. Automatic differentiation of cost function and constraints is used to quickly determine their gradient and Jacobian, respectively. An APF method is used to update the optimal control inputs for guaranteeing collision avoidance. The trajectory optimization and APF method are implemented in a closed-loop fashion continuously, but in parallel at moderate and high frequencies, respectively. The initial guess for the optimization is provided based on the previous solution. The proposed approach is tested and validated through indoor experiments.

Most cells possess the capacity to locomote. Alone or collectively, this allows them to adapt, to rearrange, and to explore their surroundings. The biophysical characterization of such motile processes, in health and disease, has so far focused mostly on two limiting cases: single-cell motility on the one hand, and the dynamics of confluent tissues such as the epithelium on the other. The in-between regime of clusters, composed of relatively few cells, moving as a coherent unit has received less attention. Such small clusters are, however, deeply relevant in development but also in cancer metastasis. In this work, we use cellular Potts models and analytical active matter theory to understand how the motility of small cell clusters changes with N, the number of cells in the cluster. Modeling and theory reveal our two main findings: Cluster persistence time increases with N while the intrinsic diffusivity decreases with N. We discuss a number of settings in which the motile properties of more complex clusters can be analytically understood, revealing that the focusing effects of small-scale cooperation and cell-cell alignment can overcome the increased bulkiness and internal disorder of multicellular clusters to enhance overall migrational efficacy. We demonstrate this enhancement for small-cluster collective durotaxis, which is shown to proceed more effectively than for single cells. Our results may provide some novel insights into the connection between single-cell and large-scale collective motion and may point the way to the biophysical origins of the enhanced metastatic potential of small tumor cell clusters.

The new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been declared a pandemic since March 2020 by the World Health Organization. It consists of an emerging viral infection with respiratory tropism that could develop atypical pneumonia. Experts emphasize the importance of early detection of those who have the COVID-19 virus. In this way, patients will be isolated from other people and the spread of the virus can be prevented. For this reason, it has become an area of interest to develop early diagnosis and detection methods to ensure a rapid treatment process and prevent the virus from spreading. Since the standard testing system is time-consuming and not available for everyone, alternative early-screening techniques have become an urgent need. In this study, the approaches used in the detection of COVID-19 based on deep learning (DL) algorithms, which have been popular in recent years, have been comprehensively discussed. The advantages and disadvantages of different approaches used in literature are examined in detail. The Computed Tomography of the chest and X-ray images give a rich representation of the patient's lung that is less time-consuming and allows an efficient viral pneumonia detection using the DL algorithms. The first step is the pre-processing of these images to remove noise. Next, deep features are extracted using multiple types of deep models (pre-trained models, generative models, generic neural networks, etc.). Finally, the classification is performed using the obtained features to decide whether the patient is infected by coronavirus or it is another lung disease. In this study, we also give a brief review of the latest applications of cough analysis to early screen the COVID-19, and human mobility estimation to limit its spread.

Cloud storage systems have been introduced to provide a scalable, secure, reliable, and highly available data storage environment for the organizations and end-users. Therefore, the service provider should grow in a geographical extent. Consequently, extensive storage service provision requires a replication mechanism. Replication imposes many costs on the cloud storage, including the synchronization, communications, storage, etc., costs among the replicas. Moreover, the synchronization process among replicas is a major challenge in cloud storage. Therefore, consistency can be defined as the coordination among the replicas. In this paper, we propose an extension to the strict timed causal consistency by adding the considerations for the monetary costs and the number of violations in the cloud storage systems and call it the extended strict timed causal consistency. Our proposed supports monotonic read, read your write, monotonic write, and write follow read, models by taking into account the causal relations between users' operations, at the client-side. Besides, it supports timed causal at the server-side. We employed the Cassandra cloud database that supports various consistencies such as all, one, quorum, etc. Our method performs better in reducing staleness rate, the severity of violations, and monetary cost in comparison with all, one, quorum, and causal.

The understanding of how science works can contribute to making scientific development more effective. In this paper, we report an analysis of the organization and interconnection between two important issues in chemistry, namely mass spectrometry (MS) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). For that purpose, we employed science of science techniques based on complex networks. More specifically, we considered a citation network in which the nodes and connections represent papers and citations, respectively. Interesting results were found, including a good separation between some clusters of articles devoted to instrumentation techniques and applications. However, the papers that describe CE-MS did not lead to a well-defined cluster. In order to better understand the organization of the citation network, we considered a multi-scale analysis, in which we used the information regarding sub-clusters. Firstly, we analyzed the sub-cluster of the first article devoted to the coupling between CE and MS, which was found to be a good representation of its sub-cluster. The second analysis was about the sub-cluster of a seminal paper known to be the first that dealt with proteins by using CE-MS. By considering the proposed methodologies, our paper paves the way for researchers working with both techniques, since it elucidates the knowledge organization and can therefore lead to better literature reviews.
