1. Oxygen vacancy-driven spin-transfer torque across MgO magnetic tunnel junctions

Abstract: Abstract Flowing an electrical current that is both of high areal density and large spin polarization across a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) can, through spin-transfer torque (STT), alter the relative magnetic orientation of the MTJ’s ferromagnetic electrodes. This effect has enabled key next-generation MTJ applications and commercialized products, from memories to artificial synapses and energy harvesters. As MTJs are now downscaled to 2 nm, basic experimental data challenge the accepted understanding of their operation. From transport spectroscopy, ferromagnetic resonance experiments and ab-initio calculations it is revealed that the high conductivity of STT-ready MTJs, and the STT effect therein, is mediated by oxygen vacancy complexes within the MgO barrier. Our work positions the oxygen vacancy at the core of MgO spintronics. This should disrupt the status-quo on STT-MRAM R&D, by generating defect-specific research and new ideas to confer additional functionality to these next-generation electronic devices, as a nanoelectronics platform to industrialize quantum physics.

Abstract: Digital Revolution is strongly impacting the safeguarding and enhancement of Cultural Heritage through the techniques and tools available for its documentation and communication. Specifically, modern heritage is a potentially fertile laboratory of work in this field because of the availability of the documental, physical, and oral sources required for its critical study and interpretation. This article aims to present an integrated methodology supported by combined techniques for the comprehensive digital documentation of modern architecture implemented on 18 buildings of Álvaro Siza included in the World Heritage Tentative List since 2017 supported on combined techniques: i) photogrammetry; ii) virtual tours through 360° photos; iii) didactic models in BIM iv) other digital tools, such as virtual reality. This holistic and integrated multi-methods approach provides better documentation and communication of the attributes of the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV), as well as of Alvaro Siza’s design principles as a guiding framework for the future management of change.

3. DIGITAL PARTICIPATION AND HERITAGE DOCUMENTATION: AN INTERFACE FOR SURVEYING ATTRIBUTES AND VALUES OF ARCHITECTURAL RUINS IN LARANJEIRAS, SERGIPE, BRAZIL

Abstract: In the 21st century, participation is a key factor for ensure effectiveness of safeguarding culturally significant buildings. Integration of local communities in the process of architectural conservation is seen as complex task, but also an excellent strategy to avoid top-bottom processes – “made by experts” – that tend to fail more often. Recording heritage buildings often need some level of expertise but also tend to support biases, in which the “expert” operator might reproduce his perception away from the values acknowledged by the different communities that live and support the heritage itself. This paper presents a prototype of a digital interface designed to record the values’ perception of derelict buildings of Laranjeiras’ heritage site, an 18th century urban settlement classified since 1996 and valued as a Brazilian national heritage by its architecture and historical significance in the Cotinguiba river basin in the State of Sergipe. The project used as a case study the ancient “Cinema Iris”, a popular building in the main street (“calçadão”). The methodology adopted the following procedures: 1) Survey; 2) Pre-selection of material attributes; 3) Integration; 4) Data collection; 5) Evaluation. As a primary product, yet to be perfected, the creation and application of the digital interface gave attention to the need for an integrated survey database of Laranjeiras’ ruins as perceived by the local community. Turning them into a collection of balanced values, the interface proved to be a positive tool to support the development of further conservation actions (design, management, and monitoring) in the heritage site.

Abstract: An angular analysis of $B^0\rightarrow K^{*0}e^{+}e^{-}$ decays is presented using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$. The analysis is performed in the region of the dilepton invariant mass squared of 1.1-6.0 GeV$^{2}/c^{4}$. In addition, a test of lepton flavour universality is performed by comparing the obtained angular observables with those measured in $B^0\rightarrow K^{*0}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decays. In general, the angular observables are found to be consistent with the Standard Model expectations as well as with global analyses of other $b \rightarrow s \ell^{+} \ell^{-}$ processes, where $\ell$ is either a muon or an electron. No sign of lepton-flavour-violating effects is observed., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/1628/ (LHCb public pages)

Abstract: The prospects of assessing neural complexity (NC) by $q$-statistics of the systemic organization of different types and levels of brain activity were studied. In 70 adult subjects, NC was assessed via the parameter $q$ of $q$-statistics, applied to the ongoing and EEG and its spectral power of 20 scalp points (channels). The NC were estimated both globally for all channels (AllCh) and locally (for each single channel) in different Functional States (FSs). The values of $q$ was compared among FSs and single channels, as well they were correlated with the power of $\theta$ (4-8Hz), $\beta_1$ (15-25Hz) and others EEG bands, in each FS. The value of $q$ across all FSs was higher for AllCh than for the single channels FSs. Consistently with previous studies, we found a negative correlation between NC and age. The FSs did not influence the $q$ of the EEG in AllCh, although locally the FS modulated $q$ in a consistent manner (e.g., reducing $q$ in posterior sites with eyes closed). The $q$ was correlated positively with the power of the $\theta$ and negatively with that of the $\beta_1$ band in general. These findings support the idea that, as a first approach, $q$-statistics can describe the human NC. The relationship between $q$ and $\theta$ power aligns with greater NC during FSs such as listening music and resting with eyes open, which is consistent with high-order representations rather than low-informative attentional tasks (OddBall)., Comment: 19 pages and 8 figures

Abstract: The first measurement of the $CP$ asymmetry of the decay rate ($A_{CP}$) and the $CP$ average ($\Sigma A_{\text{FB}}$) and $CP$ asymmetry ($\Delta A_{\text{FB}}$) of the forward-backward asymmetry in the muon system of $\mathit{\Lambda}^+_c\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ decays is reported. The measurement is performed using a data sample of proton-proton collisions, recorded by the LHCb experiment from 2016 to 2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13$\text{ TeV}$, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.4$\text{ fb}^{-1}$. The asymmetries are measured in two regions of dimuon mass near the $\phi$-meson mass peak. The dimuon-mass integrated results are \begin{align*} A_{CP} &= (-1.1 \pm 4.0 \pm 0.5)\%,\\ \Sigma A_{\text{FB}} &= (\phantom{-}3.9 \pm 4.0 \pm 0.6)\%,\\ \Delta A_{\text{FB}} &= (\phantom{-}3.1 \pm 4.0 \pm 0.4)\%, \end{align*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The results are consistent with the conservation of $CP$ symmetry and the Standard Model expectations., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3473/ (LHCb public pages)

7. Nonextensive entropic behavior observed in Quasar 3C 273

Author: da Silva, C. V., Barbosa, S. G. A., Filho, F. V. Alencar, Bravo, J. P., and de Freitas, D. B.
Subjects: Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena
Abstract: We investigate the flux intensities spanning from radio waves to X-rays across 39 light curves of Quasar 3C 273, utilizing publicly available data collected by the Integral Science Data Centre (ISDC) database. Our results suggest that Quasar 3C 273 exhibits nonextensive behavior. Furthermore, we calculate the $q$ entropic indices for these light curves using the $q$-Gaussian distribution with a predominant observation of cases where $q>1$. Based on this index, we estimate the non-extensive entropy ($S_{q}$) and explore its correlation with the energy (in eV). In this context, we identify two jump-like increases in entropy, particularly evident in the infrared (IR) and X-ray wavebands. The peak in the far-IR band, around 0.34 eV, results from synchrotron flares evolving from higher to lower energies and thermal radiation emitted by hot dust near the sublimation radius. However, the second entropic peak in the hard X-ray range lacks statistical robustness due to limited data or large measurement uncertainties., Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, 1 table, submitted to EPL

8. Chirp-Permuted AFDM for Quantum-Resilient Physical-Layer Secure Communications

Author: Rou, Hyeon Seok and de Abreu, Giuseppe Thadeu Freitas
Subjects: Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Signal Processing
Abstract: This article presents a novel physical-layer secure communications scheme based on the recently discovered chirp-permuted affine frequency division multiplexing (AFDM) waveform, which results in a completely different received signal to the eavesdropper with the incorrect chirp-permutation order, even under co-located eavesdropping with perfect channel information. The security of the proposed scheme is studied in terms of the complexity required to find the correct permutation via classical and quantum search algorithms, which are shown to be infeasible due the factorially-scaling search space, as well as theoretical and simulated analyses of a random-guess approach, indicating an infeasible probability of breach by chance.

Abstract: Diffuse photons of energy above 0.1 PeV, produced through the interactions between cosmic rays and either interstellar matter or background radiation fields, are powerful tracers of the distribution of cosmic rays in the Galaxy. Furthermore, the measurement of a diffuse photon flux would be an important probe to test models of super-heavy dark matter decaying into gamma-rays. In this work, we search for a diffuse photon flux in the energy range between 50 PeV and 200 PeV using data from the Pierre Auger Observatory. For the first time, we combine the air-shower measurements from a 2 km$^2$ surface array consisting of 19 water-Cherenkov surface detectors, spaced at 433 m, with the muon measurements from an array of buried scintillators placed in the same area. Using 15 months of data, collected while the array was still under construction, we derive upper limits to the integral photon flux ranging from 13.3 to 13.8 km$^{-2}$ sr$^{-1}$ yr$^{-1}$ above tens of PeV. We extend the Pierre Auger Observatory photon search program towards lower energies, covering more than three decades of cosmic-ray energy. This work lays the foundation for future diffuse photon searches: with the data from the next 10 years of operation of the Observatory, this limit is expected to improve by a factor of $\sim$20., Comment: Submitted to JCAP

10. Improving polynomial bounds for the Graphical Traveling Salesman Problem with release dates on paths

Author: Clementino, Thailsson and de Freitas, Rosiane
Subjects: Computer Science - Data Structures and Algorithms
Abstract: The Graphical Traveling Salesman Problem with release dates (GTSP-rd) is a variation of the TSP-rd where each vertex in a weighted graph $G$ must be visited at least once, respecting the release date restriction. The edges may be traversed multiple times if necessary, as in some sparse graphs. This paper focuses on solving the GTSP-rd in paths. We consider two objective functions: minimizing the route completion time (GTSP-rd (time)) and minimizing the total distance traveled (GTSP-rd (distance)). We present improvements to existing dynamic programming algorithms, offering an $O(n)$ solution for paths where the depot is located at the extremity and an $O(n^2)$ solution for paths where the depot is located anywhere. For the GTSP-rd (distance), we propose an $O(n \log \log n)$ solution for the case with the depot at the extremity and an $O(n^2 \log \log n)$ solution for the general case.

11. Replacing the Gallium Oxide Shell with Conductive Ag: Toward a Printable and Recyclable Composite for Highly Stretchable Electronics, Electromagnetic Shielding, and Thermal Interfaces

Author: Hajalilou, Abdollah, Parvini, Elahe, Morgado, Tiago A., Lopes, Pedro Alhais, Jorge, M. Estrela Melo, Freitas, Marta, and Tavakoli, Mahmoud
Subjects: Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Systems and Control
Abstract: Liquid metal (LM)-based composites hold promise for soft electronics due to their high conductivity and fluidic nature. However, the presence of {\alpha}_Ga2O3 and GaOOH layers around LM droplets impairs conductivity and performance. We tackle this issue by replacing the oxide layer with conductive silver (Ag) using an ultrasonic_assisted galvanic replacement reaction. The Ag_coated nanoparticles form aggregated, porous microparticles that are mixed with styrene_isoprene_styrene (SIS) polymers, resulting in a digitally printable composite with superior electrical conductivity and electromechanical properties compared to conventional fillers. Adding more LM enhances these properties further. The composite achieves EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) exceeding 75 dB in the X_band frequency range, even at 200 per cent strain, meeting stringent military and medical standards. It is applicable in wireless communications and Bluetooth signal blocking and as a thermal interface material (TIM). Additionally, we highlight its recyclability using a biodegradable solvent, underscoring its eco_friendly potential. This composite represents a significant advancement in stretchable electronics and EMI shielding, with implications for wearable and bioelectronic applications.

Abstract: This study demonstrates that two-dimensional talc, a naturally abundant mineral, supports hyperbolic phonon-polaritons (HPhPs) at mid-infrared wavelengths, thus offering a low-cost alternative to synthetic polaritonic materials. Using scattering scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) and synchrotron infrared nano spectroscopy (SINS), we reveal tunable HPhP modes in talc flakes of a long lifetime. These results highlight the potential of natural 2D talc crystals to constituting an effective platform for establishing scalable optoelectronic and photonic devices., Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: The first evidence for the decay $B^-\rightarrow D^{**0}\tau^-\overline{\nu_{\tau}}$ is obtained using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$ , at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 Tev. Here, the $D^{**0}$ meson represents any of the three excited charm mesons $D_{1}(2420)^{0}$, $D_{2}^{*}(2460)^{0}$, and $D_{1}^{'}(2400)^{0}$. The $B^-\rightarrow D^{**0}\tau^-\overline{\nu_{\tau}}$ signal is measured with a significance of 3.5 $\sigma$, including systematic uncertainties. The combined branching fraction $BR(B^-\rightarrow D^{**0}_{1,2}\tau^-\overline{\nu_{\tau}})\times BR(D^{**0}_{1,2}\rightarrow D^{*+}\pi^-)$, where $D^{**0}_{1,2}$ denotes both $D_{1}(2420)^{0}$ and $D_{2}^{*}(2460)^{0}$ contributions, is measured to be $(0.051\pm0.013(stat)\pm 0.006(syst)\pm 0.009(\rm{ext}) )\%$, where the last uncertainty reflects that of the branching fraction of the normalisation channel $B^-\rightarrow D^{**0}_{1,2}D_s^{(*)-}$. The ratio between the tauonic and muonic semileptonic $B$ decays, with the latter taken from world average values, is also determined and found to be ${\cal R}(D^{**0}_{1,2})=0.13\pm0.03(stat)\pm0.01(syst)\pm0.02\,(\rm{ext})$., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3300/ (LHCb public pages)

14. Does Table Source Matter? Benchmarking and Improving Multimodal Scientific Table Understanding and Reasoning

Author: Yang, Bohao, Zhang, Yingji, Liu, Dong, Freitas, André, and Lin, Chenghua
Subjects: Computer Science - Computation and Language
Abstract: Recent large language models (LLMs) have advanced table understanding capabilities but rely on converting tables into text sequences. While multimodal large language models (MLLMs) enable direct visual processing, they face limitations in handling scientific tables due to fixed input image resolutions and insufficient numerical reasoning capabilities. We present a comprehensive framework for multimodal scientific table understanding and reasoning with dynamic input image resolutions. Our framework consists of three key components: (1) MMSci-Pre, a domain-specific table structure learning dataset of 52K scientific table structure recognition samples, (2) MMSci-Ins, an instruction tuning dataset with 12K samples across three table-based tasks, and (3) MMSci-Eval, a benchmark with 3,114 testing samples specifically designed to evaluate numerical reasoning capabilities. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our domain-specific approach with 52K scientific table images achieves superior performance compared to 150K general-domain tables, highlighting the importance of data quality over quantity. Our proposed table-based MLLMs with dynamic input resolutions show significant improvements in both general table understanding and numerical reasoning capabilities, with strong generalisation to held-out datasets. Our code and data are publicly available at https://github.com/Bernard-Yang/MMSci_Table.

Abstract: The first observation of the $\Xi_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- \pi^+$ decay and the most precise measurement of the branching fraction of the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- K^+$ decay are reported, using proton-proton collision data from the LHCb experiment collected in 2016--2018 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13~TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4~fb$^{-1}$. Using the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \Lambda$ and $\Xi_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^-$ decays as normalisation channels, the ratios of branching fractions are measured to be: \[ \frac{\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- K^+)}{\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \Lambda)} = (1.17 \pm 0.14 \pm 0.08)\times 10^{-2} \, , \] \[ \frac{\mathcal{B}(\Xi_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- \pi^+)}{\mathcal{B}(\Xi_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^-)} = (11.9 \pm 1.4 \pm 0.6)\times 10^{-2}\, , \] where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3479/ (LHCb public pages)

Abstract: The $\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{2}S)$ and $\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{3}S)$ production cross-sections are measured relative to that of the $\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{1}S)$ meson, as a function of charged-particle multiplicity in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $13$ TeV. The measurement uses data collected by the LHCb experiment in 2018 corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 $\text{fb}^{-1}$. Both the $\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{2}S)$-to-$\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{1}S)$ and $\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{3}S)$-to-$\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{1}S)$ cross-section ratios are found to decrease significantly as a function of event multiplicity, with the $\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{3}S)$-to-$\mit{\Upsilon}(\mathrm{1}S)$ ratio showing a steeper decline towards high multiplicity. This hierarchy is qualitatively consistent with the comover model predictions, indicating that final-state interactions play an important role in bottomonia production in high-multiplicity events., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/1782/ (LHCb public pages)

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has victimized over 7 million people to date, prompting diverse research efforts. Spatio-temporal models combining mobility data with machine learning have gained attention for disease forecasting. Here, we explore Graph Convolutional Recurrent Network (GCRN) and Graph Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory (GCLSTM), which combine the power of Graph Neural Networks (GNN) with traditional architectures that deal with sequential data. The aim is to forecast future values of COVID-19 cases in Brazil and China by leveraging human mobility networks, whose nodes represent geographical locations and links are flows of vehicles or people. We show that employing backbone extraction to filter out negligible connections in the mobility network enhances predictive stability. Comparing regression and classification tasks demonstrates that binary classification yields smoother, more interpretable results. Interestingly, we observe qualitatively equivalent results for both Brazil and China datasets by introducing sliding windows of variable size and prediction horizons. Compared to prior studies, introducing the sliding window and the network backbone extraction strategies yields improvements of about 80% in root mean squared errors.

Abstract: An analysis of the flavour oscillations of the charmed neutral meson is presented. The ratio of $D^{0} \to K^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $D^{0} \to K^{-} \pi^{+}$ decay rates is measured as a function of the decay time of the $D^{0}$ meson and compared with the charge-conjugated system to search for charge-parity violation. The meson flavour at production is double-tagged by the charges of the muon and pion in the preceding $\overline{B} \to D^{*}(2010)^{+} \mu^{-} X$ and ${{D^{*}(2010)^{+}} \to D^{0}\pi^{+}}$ decays, respectively. These decays are selected from proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of ${13\,\text{TeV}}$ and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of ${5.4\,\text{fb}^{-1}}$. The flavour oscillation parameters, relating to the differences in mass and width of the mass eigenstates, are found to be ${y^\prime=(5.8\pm1.6)\times10^{-3}}$ and ${(x^\prime)^2=(0.0\pm1.2)\times10^{-4}}$. No evidence for charge-parity violation is seen either in the flavour oscillations or in the decay, where the direct charge-parity asymmetry is measured to be ${A_{D}=(2.3\pm1.7)\,{\%}}$., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3260/ (LHCb public pages)

Abstract: We consider a robust and self-reliant (or "egoistic") variation of the rigid body localization (RBL) problem, in which a primary rigid body seeks to estimate the pose (i.e., location and orientation) of another rigid body (or "target"), relative to its own, without the assistance of external infrastructure, without prior knowledge of the shape of the target, and taking into account the possibility that the available observations are incomplete. Three complementary contributions are then offered for such a scenario. The first is a method to estimate the translation vector between the center point of both rigid bodies, which unlike existing techniques does not require that both objects have the same shape or even the same number of landmark points. This technique is shown to significantly outperform the state-of-the-art (SotA) under complete information, but to be sensitive to data erasures, even when enhanced by matrix completion methods. The second contribution, designed to offer improved performance in the presence of incomplete information, offers a robust alternative to the latter, at the expense of a slight relative loss under complete information. Finally, the third contribution is a scheme for the estimation of the rotation matrix describing the relative orientation of the target rigid body with respect to the primary. Comparisons of the proposed schemes and SotA techniques demonstrate the advantage of the contributed methods in terms of root mean square error (RMSE) performance under fully complete information and incomplete conditions.

Abstract: Introduced with the advent of statistical wireless channel models for high mobility communications and having a profound role in communication-centric (CC) integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), the doubly-dispersive (DD) channel structure has long been heralded as a useful tool enabling the capture of the most important fading effects undergone by an arbitrary time-domain transmit signal propagating through some medium. However, the incorporation of this model into multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system setups, relying on the recent paradigm-shifting transceiver architecture based on stacked intelligent metasurfaces (SIM), in an environment with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) remains an open problem due to the many intricate details that have to be accounted for. In this paper, we fill this gap by introducing a novel DD MIMO channel model that incorporates an arbitrary number of RISs in the ambient, as well as SIMs equipping both the transmitter and receiver. We then discuss how the proposed metasurfaces-parametrized DD (MPDD) channel model can be seamlessly applied to waveforms that are known to perform well in DD environments, namely, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS), and affine frequency division multiplexing (AFDM), with each having their own inherent advantages and disadvantages. An illustrative application of the programmable functionality of the proposed model is finally presented to showcase its potential for boosting the performance of the aforementioned waveforms. Our numerical results indicate that the design of waveforms suitable to mitigating the effects of DD channels is significantly impacted by the emerging SIM technology., Comment: Submitted to an IEEE journal for possible publication

Abstract: A study is presented of $B^+ \to K^0_{\rm S} K^- \pi^+ K^-$ and $B^+ \to K^0_{\rm S} K^+ \pi^- K^+$ decays based on the analysis of proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9 fb^{-1}$. The $K^0_{\rm S} K \pi$ invariant-mass distributions of both $B^+$ decay modes show, in the $m(K^0_{\rm S} K \pi)<1.85$ GeV mass region, a rich spectrum of light-meson resonances, resolved using an amplitude analysis. A complex mixture of $J^{PC}=0^{-+}, 1^{++}$ and $1^{+-}$ resonances is observed, dominated by $\eta(1405)$, $\eta(1470)$, $\eta(1760)$, $f_1(1285)$, $f_1(1420)$ and $h_1(1405)$ resonances. The $K^0_{\rm S} K \pi$ Dalitz plots are dominated by asymmetric crossing $K^* \bar K$ bands which are different for the two $B^+$ decay modes. This is due to a different interference pattern between the $1^{++}$ and $1^{+-}$ amplitudes in the two channels. Branching fractions are measured for each resonant contribution., Comment: All figures and tables, along with any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://cern.ch/lhcbproject/Publications/p/LHCb-PAPER-2024-045.html (LHCb public pages)

23. Serrin's type Problems in convex cones in Riemannian manifolds

Author: Araújo, Murilo, Freitas, Allan, Santos, Márcio, and Sindeaux, Joyce
Subjects: Mathematics - Differential Geometry, Mathematics - Analysis of PDEs
Abstract: In this work, we discuss several results concerning Serrin's problem in convex cones in Riemannian manifolds. First, we present a rigidity result for an overdetermined problem in a class of warped products with Ricci curvature bounded below. As a consequence, we obtain a rigidity result for Einstein warped products. Next, we derive a soap bubble result and a Heintze-Karcher inequality that characterize the intersection of geodesic balls with cones in these spaces. Finally, we analyze the analogous ovedetermined problem for the drift Laplacian, where the ambient space is a cone in the Euclidean space., Comment: Comments are welcome!

Abstract: Continuous gravitational waves (CWs) emission from neutron stars carries information about their internal structure and equation of state, and it can provide tests of General Relativity. We present a search for CWs from a set of 45 known pulsars in the first part of the fourth LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA observing run, known as O4a. We conducted a targeted search for each pulsar using three independent analysis methods considering the single-harmonic and the dual-harmonic emission models. We find no evidence of a CW signal in O4a data for both models and set upper limits on the signal amplitude and on the ellipticity, which quantifies the asymmetry in the neutron star mass distribution. For the single-harmonic emission model, 29 targets have the upper limit on the amplitude below the theoretical spin-down limit. The lowest upper limit on the amplitude is $6.4\!\times\!10^{-27}$ for the young energetic pulsar J0537-6910, while the lowest constraint on the ellipticity is $8.8\!\times\!10^{-9}$ for the bright nearby millisecond pulsar J0437-4715. Additionally, for a subset of 16 targets we performed a narrowband search that is more robust regarding the emission model, with no evidence of a signal. We also found no evidence of non-standard polarizations as predicted by the Brans-Dicke theory., Comment: main paper: 12 pages, 6 figures, 4 tables

Subjects: Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence
Abstract: Novel applications demand high throughput, low latency, and high reliability connectivity and still pose significant challenges to slicing orchestration architectures. The literature explores network slicing techniques that employ canonical methods, artificial intelligence, and combinatorial optimization to address errors and ensure throughput for network slice data plane. This paper introduces the Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB)-Agent as a new approach that uses Reinforcement Learning (RL) in a vertical application to enhance network slicing throughput to fit Service-Level Agreements (SLAs). The eMBB-Agent analyzes application transmission variables and proposes actions within a discrete space to adjust the reception window using a Deep Q-Network (DQN). This paper also presents experimental results that examine the impact of factors such as the channel error rate, DQN model layers, and learning rate on model convergence and achieved throughput, providing insights on embedding intelligence in network slicing., Comment: Paper already published at Anais do XV Workshop de Pesquisa Experimental da Internet do Futuro (WPEIF)

Abstract: A measurement of the $CP$-violating parameters in $B_s^0 \to D_s^{\mp} K^{\pm}$ decays is reported, based on the analysis of proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $6\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at a centre-of-mass energy of $13 \,\mathrm{TeV}$. The measured parameters are $C_f = 0.791 \pm 0.061 \pm 0.022$, $A_f^{\Delta\Gamma} = -0.051 \pm 0.134 \pm 0.058$, $A_{\overline{f}}^{\Delta\Gamma} = -0.303 \pm 0.125 \pm 0.055$, $S_f = -0.571 \pm 0.084 \pm 0.023$ and $S_{\overline{f}} = -0.503 \pm 0.084 \pm 0.025$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. Together with the value of the Bs mixing phase $-2\beta_s$, these parameters are used to obtain a measurement of the CKM angle $\gamma$ equal to $ (74\pm12)^\circ$ modulo $180^{\circ}$, where the uncertainty contains both statistical and systematic contributions. This result is combined with the previous LHCb measurement in this channel using $3\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ resulting in a determination of $\gamma= (81^{+12}_{-11})^\circ$., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3575/ (LHCb public pages)

Abstract: A search for $CP$ violation in $\Lambda_b^0\rightarrow pK^-$ and $\Lambda_b^0\rightarrow p\pi^-$ decays is presented using the full Run 1 and Run 2 data samples of $pp$ collisions collected with the LHCb detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. For the Run 2 data sample, the $CP$-violating asymmetries are measured to be $A_{CP}^{pK^-} = (-1.4 \pm 0.7 \pm 0.4)\%$ and $A_{CP}^{p\pi^-} = (0.4 \pm 0.9 \pm 0.4)\%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Following significant improvements in the evaluation of systematic uncertainties compared to the previous LHCb measurement, the Run 1 dataset is reanalyzed to update the corresponding results. When combining the Run 2 and updated Run 1 measurements, the final results are found to be $A_{CP}^{pK^-} = (-1.1 \pm 0.7 \pm 0.4)\%$ and $A_{CP}^{p\pi^-} = (0.2 \pm 0.8 \pm 0.4)\%$, constituting the most precise measurements of these asymmetries to date., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3533/ (LHCb public pages)

28. Tensor-Based Receivers for the Bistatic Sensing and Communication Scenario

Author: Freitas Jr., Walter da C., Favier, Gerard, and de Almeida, Andre L. F.
Subjects: Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Signal Processing
Abstract: We propose receivers for bistatic sensing and communication that exploit a tensor modeling of the received signals. We consider a hybrid scenario where the sensing link knows the transmitted data to estimate the target parameters while the communication link operates semi-blindly in a direct data decoding approach without channel knowledge. We show that the signals received at the sensing receiver and communication receiver follow PARATUCK and PARAFAC tensor models, respectively. These models are exploited to obtain accurate estimates of the target parameters (at the sensing receiver) and the transmitted symbols and channels (at the user equipment). We discuss uniqueness conditions and provide some simulation results to evaluate the performance of the proposed receivers. Our experiments show that the sensing parameters are well estimated at moderate signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) while keeping good symbol error rate (SER) and channel normalized mean square error (NMSE) results for the communication link., Comment: Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers

Abstract: Use real word data to evaluate the performance of the electrocardiographic markers of GEH as features in a machine learning model with Standard ECG features and Risk Factors in Predicting Outcome of patients in a population referred to a tertiary cardiology hospital. Patients forwarded to specific evaluation in a cardiology specialized hospital performed an ECG and a risk factor anamnesis. A series of follow up attendances occurred in periods of 6 months, 12 months and 15 months to check for cardiovascular related events (mortality or new nonfatal cardiovascular events (Stroke, MI, PCI, CS), as identified during 1-year phone follow-ups. The first attendance ECG was measured by a specialist and processed in order to obtain the global electric heterogeneity (GEH) using the Kors Matriz. The ECG measurements, GEH parameters and risk factors were combined for training multiple instances of XGBoost decision trees models. Each instance were optmized for the AUCPR and the instance with higher AUC is chosen as representative to the model. The importance of each parameter for the winner tree model was compared to better understand the improvement from using GEH parameters. The GEH parameters turned out to have statistical significance for this population specially the QRST angle and the SVG. The combined model with the tree parameters class had the best performance. The findings suggest that using VCG features can facilitate more accurate identification of patients who require tertiary care, thereby optimizing resource allocation and improving patient outcomes. Moreover, the decision tree model's transparency and ability to pinpoint critical features make it a valuable tool for clinical decision-making and align well with existing clinical practices.

Abstract: The first test of lepton flavour universality between muons and electrons using $B^+ \to K^+\pi^+\pi^-\ell^+\ell^-$ ($\ell=e,\mu$) decays is presented. The measurement is performed with data from proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. The ratio of branching fractions between $B^+ \to K^+\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ and $B^+ \to K^+\pi^+\pi^-\mu^+\mu^-$decays is measured in the dilepton invariant-mass-squared range $1.1 < q^2 < 7.0~\mathrm{GeV}^2/c^4$ and is found to be $R_{K\pi\pi}^{-1} = 1.31^{+0.18}_{-0.17} \;(\mathrm{stat})\;^{+0.12}_{-0.09} \;(\mathrm{syst})$, in agreement with the Standard Model prediction. The first observation of the $B^+ \to K^+\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ decay is also reported., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/1606/ (LHCb public pages)

Abstract: We study the first gravitational wave, GW150914, detected by advanced LIGO and constructed from the data of measurement of strain relative deformation of the fabric of spacetime. We show that the time series from the gravitational wave obeys a nonadditive entropy, and its dynamics evolve with the three associated Tsallis indices named q-triplet. This fact strongly suggests that these black hole merger systems behave in a non-extensive framework. Furthermore, our results point out that the entropic indexes obtained as a function of frequency are proper statistical parameters to determine the dominant frequency when black hole coalescence is achieved., Comment: 2 pages, 1 figure, accepted to IAU

Abstract: We study a Bose-Einstein condensate under the effects of the non-condensate atomic cloud. We model the resulting linear interaction of the condensate with the atomic gas as a quenched disorder. Using the distributional zeta function method, we obtained a representation for the quenched free energy as a series of integral moments of the partition function. Assuming that the Bose-Einstein condensate is confined between two planar surfaces, we show that random surface fields generate non-local terms in the effective action. The non-local effects in this condensed matter system define an analog model for Euclidean wormhole., Comment: 15 pages, 2 figures

Abstract: A search for $D^0$ meson decays to the $\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ and $K^+K^-e^+e^-$ final states is reported using a sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb$^{-1}$. The decay $D^0 \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ is observed for the first time when requiring that the two electrons are consistent with coming from the decay of a $\phi$ or $\rho^0/\omega$ meson. The corresponding branching fractions are measured relative to the $D^0 \rightarrow K^-\pi^-[e^+e^-]_{\rho^0/\omega}$ decay, where the two electrons are consistent with coming from the decay of a $\rho^0$ or $\omega$ meson. No evidence is found for the $D^0 \rightarrow K^+K^-e^+e^-$ decay and world-best limits are set on its branching fraction. The results are compared to, and found to be consistent with, the branching fractions of the $D^0 \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\mu^+\mu^-$ and $D^0 \rightarrow K^+K^-\mu^+\mu^-$ decays recently measured by LHCb and confirm lepton universality at the current precision., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and additional information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/1611/ (LHCb public pages)

34. Fast pick-freeze estimation of Sobol' sensitivity maps using basis expansions

Author: Sao, Yuri, Roustant, Olivier, and Maciel, Geraldo de Freitas
Subjects: Mathematics - Statistics Theory
Abstract: Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) aims at quantifying the contribution of input variables over the variability of model outputs. In the frame of functional outputs, a common goal is to compute sensitivity maps (SM), i.e sensitivity indices at each output dimension (e.g. time step for time series, or pixels for spatial outputs). In specific settings, some works have shown that the computation of Sobol' SM can be speeded up by using basis expansions employed for dimension reduction. However, how to efficiently compute such SM in a general setting has not received too much attention in the GSA literature.In this work, we propose fast computations of Sobol' SM using a general basis expansion, with a focus on statistical estimation. First, we write a closed-form expression of SM in function of the matrix-valued Sobol' index of the vector of basis coefficients. Secondly, we consider pick-freeze (PF) estimators, which have nice statistical properties (in terms of asymptotical efficiency) for Sobol' indices of any order. We provide similar basis-derived formulas for the PF estimator of Sobol' SM in function of the matrix-valued PF estimator of the vector of basis coefficients. We give the computational cost, and show that, compared to a dimension-wise approach, the computational gain is substantial and allows to calculate both SM and their associated bootstrap confidence bounds in a reasonable time. Finally, we illustrate the whole methodology on an analytical test case and on an application in non-Newtonian hydraulics, modelling an idealized dam-break flow.

35. Lessons From an App Update at Replika AI: Identity Discontinuity in Human-AI Relationships

Author: De Freitas, Julian, Castelo, Noah, Uguralp, Ahmet, and Uguralp, Zeliha
Subjects: Computer Science - Human-Computer Interaction, Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science - Computers and Society
Abstract: Can consumers form especially deep emotional bonds with AI and be vested in AI identities over time? We leverage a natural app-update event at Replika AI, a popular US-based AI companion, to shed light on these questions. We find that, after the app removed its erotic role play (ERP) feature, preventing intimate interactions between consumers and chatbots that were previously possible, this event triggered perceptions in customers that their AI companion's identity had discontinued. This in turn predicted negative consumer welfare and marketing outcomes related to loss, including mourning the loss, and devaluing the "new" AI relative to the "original". Experimental evidence confirms these findings. Further experiments find that AI companions users feel closer to their AI companion than even their best human friend, and mourn a loss of their AI companion more than a loss of various other inanimate products. In short, consumers are forming human-level relationships with AI companions; disruptions to these relationships trigger real patterns of mourning as well as devaluation of the offering; and the degree of mourning and devaluation are explained by perceived discontinuity in the AIs identity. Our results illustrate that relationships with AI are truly personal, creating unique benefits and risks for consumers and firms alike.

36. On the gluing of formal schemes

Author: Calixto, R. A., Freitas, T. H., and Pérez, V. H. Jorge
Subjects: Mathematics - Commutative Algebra
Abstract: The main focus of this paper is to show that the gluing of formal schemes is also a formal scheme. The algebraic approach established here also leads us to conclude when the gluing of $k$-formal schemes is a $k$-formal scheme. In addition, we derive that the gluing of formal schemes is always singular, regardless of whether we know the structure of the schemes involved.

Abstract: Gravitational wave approximants are widely used tools in gravitational-wave astronomy. They allow for dense coverage of the parameter space of binary black hole (BBH) mergers for purposes of parameter inference, or, more generally, match filtering tasks, while avoiding the computationally expensive full evolution of numerical relativity simulations. However, this comes at a slight cost in terms of accuracy when compared to numerical relativity waveforms, depending on the approach. One way to minimize this is by constructing so-called~\textit{surrogate models} which, instead of using approximate physics or phenomenological formulae, rather interpolate within the space of numerical relativity waveforms. In this work, we introduce~\texttt{NRSurNN3dq4}, a surrogate model for non-precessing BBH merger waveforms powered by neural networks. By relying on the power of deep learning, this approximant is remarkably fast and competitively accurate, as it can generate millions of waveforms in a tenth of a second, while mismatches with numerical relativity waveforms are restrained below $10^{-3}$. We implement this approximant within the~\textsc{bilby} framework for gravitational-wave parameter inference, and show that it it is suitable for parameter estimation tasks.

38. 6D Rigid Body Localization and Velocity Estimation via Gaussian Belief Propagation

Subjects: Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Signal Processing
Abstract: We propose a novel message-passing solution to the sixth-dimensional (6D) moving rigid body localization (RBL) problem, in which the three-dimensional (3D) translation vector and rotation angles, as well as their corresponding translational and angular velocities, are all estimated by only utilizing the relative range and Doppler measurements between the "anchor" sensors located at an 3D (rigid body) observer and the "target" sensors of another rigid body. The proposed method is based on a bilinear Gaussian belief propagation (GaBP) framework, employed to estimate the absolute sensor positions and velocities using a range- and Doppler-based received signal model, which is then utilized in the reconstruction of the RBL transformation model, linearized under a small-angle approximation. The method further incorporates a second bivariate GaBP designed to directly estimate the 3D rotation angles and translation vectors, including an interference cancellation (IC) refinement stage to improve the angle estimation performance, followed by the estimation of the angular and the translational velocities. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified via simulations, which confirms its improved performance compared to equivalent state-of-the-art (SotA) techniques., Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2407.09232

39. Some splitting and rigidity results for sub-static spaces

Subjects: Mathematics - Differential Geometry, Primary: 53C21, 53C24, 53C42, Secondary: 53C25, 53C43, 83C20
Abstract: In this paper we study the rigidity problem for sub-static systems with possibly non-empty boundary. First, we get local and global splitting theorems by assuming the existence of suitable compact minimal hypersurfaces, complementing recent results in the literature. Next, we prove some boundary integral inequalities that extend works by Chr\'usciel and Boucher-Gibbons-Horowitz to non-vacuum spaces. Even in the vacuum static case, the inequalities improve on known ones. Lastly, we consider the system arising from static solutions to the Einstein field equations coupled with a $\sigma$-model. The Liouville theorem we obtain allows for positively curved target manifolds, generalizing a result by Reiris., Comment: 29 pages. Comments are welcome!

40. Information thermodynamics for Markov jump processes coupled to underdamped diffusion: Application to nanoelectromechanics

Author: Gopal, Ashwin, Freitas, Nahuel, and Esposito, Massimiliano
Subjects: Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics
Abstract: We extend the principles of information thermodynamics to study energy and information exchanges between coupled systems composed of one part undergoing a Markov jump process and another underdamped diffusion. We derive integral fluctuation theorems for the partial entropy production of each subsystem and analyze two distinct regimes. First, when the inertial dynamics is slow compared to the discrete-state transitions, we show that the steady-state energy and information flows vanish at the leading order in an adiabatic approximation, if the underdamped subsystem is governed purely by conservative forces. To capture the non-zero contributions, we consistently derive dynamical equations valid to higher order. Second, in the limit of infinite mass, the underdamped dynamics becomes a deterministic Hamiltonian dynamics driving the jump processes, we capture the next-order correction beyond this limit. We apply our framework to study self-oscillations in the single-electron shuttle - a nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) - from a measurement-feedback perspective. We find that energy flows dominate over information flows in the self-oscillating regime, and study the efficiency with which this NEMS converts electrical work into mechanical oscillations., Comment: 33 pages, 11 figures

41. Teaching and Learning Communities of Practice in Economics

Author: Kripa Freitas and Jennifer Murdock
Abstract: Among existing infrastructures to disseminate innovative teaching methods and to build collaborative networks, the authors situate a community of practice (CoP). They explain what a CoP is and compare it with teaching-focused economics journals and conferences, and other infrastructures such as institutional teaching centers. Since 2016, the Economics Department at the University of Toronto has used a variety of CoPs, which serve as an instructive case study. The authors document substantial positive impacts, and they discuss guiding principles, give practical advice, and confront challenges to facilitate adoption elsewhere.

Abstract: Thermokarst lakes cause abrupt and sustained permafrost degradation and have the potential to release large quantities of ancient carbon to the atmosphere. Despite concerns about how lakes will affect the permafrost carbon feedback, the magnitude of carbon dioxide and methane emissions from deep permafrost soils remains poorly understood. Here we incubated a very deep sediment core (20 m) to constrain the potential productivity of thawed Yedoma and underlying Quaternary sand and gravel deposits. Through radiocarbon dating, sediment incubations and sediment facies classifications, we show that extensive permafrost thaw can occur beneath lakes on timescales of decades to centuries. Although it has been assumed that shallow, aerobic carbon dioxide production will dominate the climate impact of permafrost thaw, we found that anaerobic carbon dioxide and methane production from deep sediments was commensurate with aerobic production on a per gram carbon basis, and had double the global warming potential at warmer temperatures. Carbon release from deep Arctic sediments may thus have a more substantial impact on a changing climate than currently anticipated. These environments are presently overlooked in estimates of the permafrost carbon feedback.

43. Parameter estimation of microlensed gravitational waves with Conditional Variational Autoencoders

Abstract: Gravitational lensing of gravitational waves (GWs) provides a unique opportunity to study cosmology and astrophysics at multiple scales. Detecting microlensing signatures, in particular, requires efficient parameter estimation methods due to the high computational cost of traditional Bayesian inference. In this paper we explore the use of deep learning, namely Conditional Variational Autoencoders (CVAE), to estimate parameters of microlensed binary black hole (simulated) waveforms. We find that our CVAE model yields accurate parameter estimation and significant computational savings compared to Bayesian methods such as bilby (up to five orders of magnitude faster inferences). Moreover, the incorporation of CVAE-generated priors in bilby reduces the average runtime of the latter in about 48% with no penalty on its accuracy. Our results suggest that a CVAE model is a promising tool for future low-latency searches of lensed signals. Further applications to actual signals and integration with advanced pipelines could help extend the capabilities of GW observatories in detecting microlensing events.

Abstract: An amplitude analysis of $B^-\rightarrow D^- D^0 K_\mathrm{S}^0$ decays is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9\,\text{fb}^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13$\mathrm{\,Te\kern -0.1em V}$. A resonant structure of spin-parity $0^+$ is observed in the $D^0 K_\mathrm{S}^0$ invariant-mass spectrum with a significance of $5.3\,\sigma$. The mass and width of the state, modeled with a Breit$-$Wigner lineshape, are determined to be $2883\pm11\pm8\mathrm{\,Me\kern -0.1em V\!/}c^2$ and $87_{-47}^{+22}\pm17\mathrm{\,Me\kern -0.1em V}$ respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. These properties and the quark content are consistent with those of the open-charm tetraquark state $T_{cs 0}^{*}(2870)^0$ observed previously in the $D^+ K^-$ final state of the $B^-\rightarrow D^- D^+ K^-$ decay. This result confirms the existence of the $T_{cs 0}^{*}(2870)^0$ state in a new decay mode. The $T_{cs1}^{*}(2900)^0$ state, reported in the $B^-\rightarrow D^- D^+ K^-$ decay, is also searched for in the $D^0 K_\mathrm{S}^0$ invariant-mass spectrum of the $B^- \rightarrow D^- D^0 K_\mathrm{S}^0$ decay, without finding evidence for it., Comment: All figures and tables, along with machine-readable versions and any supplementary material and information, are available at https://lbfence.cern.ch/alcm/public/analysis/full-details/3162/ (LHCb public pages)

45. RITA: Automatic Framework for Designing of Resilient IoT Applications

Author: Pessoa, Luis Eduardo, Iglesias Jr, Cristovao Freitas, and Miceli, Claudio
Subjects: Computer Science - Cryptography and Security, Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science - Machine Learning
Abstract: Designing resilient Internet of Things (IoT) systems requires i) identification of IoT Critical Objects (ICOs) such as services, devices, and resources, ii) threat analysis, and iii) mitigation strategy selection. However, the traditional process for designing resilient IoT systems is still manual, leading to inefficiencies and increased risks. In addition, while tools such as ChatGPT could support this manual and highly error-prone process, their use raises concerns over data privacy, inconsistent outputs, and internet dependence. Therefore, we propose RITA, an automated, open-source framework that uses a fine-tuned RoBERTa-based Named Entity Recognition (NER) model to identify ICOs from IoT requirement documents, correlate threats, and recommend countermeasures. RITA operates entirely offline and can be deployed on-site, safeguarding sensitive information and delivering consistent outputs that enhance standardization. In our empirical evaluation, RITA outperformed ChatGPT in four of seven ICO categories, particularly in actuator, sensor, network resource, and service identification, using both human-annotated and ChatGPT-generated test data. These findings indicate that RITA can improve resilient IoT design by effectively supporting key security operations, offering a practical solution for developing robust IoT architectures.

46. LongKey: Keyphrase Extraction for Long Documents

Author: Alves, Jeovane Honorio, State, Radu, Freitas, Cinthia Obladen de Almendra, and Barddal, Jean Paul
Subjects: Computer Science - Computation and Language, Computer Science - Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science - Information Retrieval, Computer Science - Machine Learning
Abstract: In an era of information overload, manually annotating the vast and growing corpus of documents and scholarly papers is increasingly impractical. Automated keyphrase extraction addresses this challenge by identifying representative terms within texts. However, most existing methods focus on short documents (up to 512 tokens), leaving a gap in processing long-context documents. In this paper, we introduce LongKey, a novel framework for extracting keyphrases from lengthy documents, which uses an encoder-based language model to capture extended text intricacies. LongKey uses a max-pooling embedder to enhance keyphrase candidate representation. Validated on the comprehensive LDKP datasets and six diverse, unseen datasets, LongKey consistently outperforms existing unsupervised and language model-based keyphrase extraction methods. Our findings demonstrate LongKey's versatility and superior performance, marking an advancement in keyphrase extraction for varied text lengths and domains., Comment: Accepted for presentation at the 2024 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (IEEE BigData 2024).

47. Uma proposta para o uso de RPG no Ensino de F\'isica: A Vingan\c{c}a de Newton

Author: Souza, Maria Rita Vasconcelos Brandão, de Freitas, Luís Henrique, Silva, Glaucia de Souza, de Carvalho, Felipe Xavier, and Souza, Leonardo Antônio M.
Subjects: Physics - Physics Education
Abstract: This work explores the use of Role Playing Games (RPG) as an active methodology in teaching Modern Physics, focusing on a game called Newton's Revenge. The game was developed with the aim of engaging students in collaborative and investigative learning processes, using gamification elements to increase motivation and involvement. Based on the constructivist theories of Piaget and Vygotsky, the RPG stimu-\newline lates cognitive and social development by placing students in the roles of historical science figures. Through contextualized physical challenges, such as understanding the Photoelectric Effect, participants actively construct knowledge. This study presents preliminary learning data obtained through pre- and post-tests, as well as evaluates students' perceptions of using educational games in science education. The results indicate that the use of RPG can be an effective tool for teaching Modern Physics, promoting greater engagement and understanding of scientific concepts., Comment: This article aims to detail and contextualize part of one of the authors' presentations at the 20th Matogrossense School of Physics, held in October 2024.

48. Modeling and Analysis of Phase-locked loops: a non reductionist approach

Author: Piqueira, José Roberto Castilho, Freitas, Felipe, and Aguirre, Luis Antonio
Subjects: Electrical Engineering and Systems Science - Systems and Control
Abstract: Phase-locked loop (PLL), conceived in 1932 by H. Bellescize, has been the basic electronic component in the development of communication technology from the early analog radio receptors to modern digital civil and military facilities. Traditionally, the analysis is conducted by modeling the dynamical behavior of phase and frequency errors, hence following a phase reduction approach. One of the main goals of the present work is to describe and investigate the dynamics of a PLL node by representing it in full state-space, here called non reductionist model, without the usual design simplifications i.e., considering different input and output frequencies and not neglecting the higher frequencies components generated in the phase detection process. On the one hand, this approach complicates the use of analytical tools but on the other hand it permits an efficient numerical approach that can be used for precise definition of regions in parameters space that show the boundaries between synchronization and non synchronization regimes, even when noise is considered. Results show that the PLL node can be simulated in a more realistic way using the state-space model and that a number of design-relevant aspects can now be investigated numerically., Comment: The paper is not submitted to any journal

49. What events matter for exchange rate volatility ?

Author: Martins, Igor and Lopes, Hedibert Freitas
Subjects: Quantitative Finance - Statistical Finance, Economics - Econometrics
Abstract: This paper expands on stochastic volatility models by proposing a data-driven method to select the macroeconomic events most likely to impact volatility. The paper identifies and quantifies the effects of macroeconomic events across multiple countries on exchange rate volatility using high-frequency currency returns, while accounting for persistent stochastic volatility effects and seasonal components capturing time-of-day patterns. Given the hundreds of macroeconomic announcements and their lags, we rely on sparsity-based methods to select relevant events for the model. We contribute to the exchange rate literature in four ways: First, we identify the macroeconomic events that drive currency volatility, estimate their effects and connect them to macroeconomic fundamentals. Second, we find a link between intraday seasonality, trading volume, and the opening hours of major markets across the globe. We provide a simple labor-based explanation for this observed pattern. Third, we show that including macroeconomic events and seasonal components is crucial for forecasting exchange rate volatility. Fourth, our proposed model yields the lowest volatility and highest Sharpe ratio in portfolio allocations when compared to standard SV and GARCH models.

Subjects: Computer Science - Machine Learning, Computer Science - Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing, Computer Science - Neural and Evolutionary Computing
Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine learning approach that has gained attention for its potential to enable collaborative model training across clients while protecting data privacy, making it an attractive solution for the chemical industry. This work aims to provide the chemical engineering community with an accessible introduction to the discipline. Supported by a hands-on tutorial and a comprehensive collection of examples, it explores the application of FL in tasks such as manufacturing optimization, multimodal data integration, and drug discovery while addressing the unique challenges of protecting proprietary information and managing distributed datasets. The tutorial was built using key frameworks such as $\texttt{Flower}$ and $\texttt{TensorFlow Federated}$ and was designed to provide chemical engineers with the right tools to adopt FL in their specific needs. We compare the performance of FL against centralized learning across three different datasets relevant to chemical engineering applications, demonstrating that FL will often maintain or improve classification performance, particularly for complex and heterogeneous data. We conclude with an outlook on the open challenges in federated learning to be tackled and current approaches designed to remediate and improve this framework., Comment: 53 Pages, 8 figures, Under review in ACS Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research Journal
