Computational Techniques for the Analysis of Small Signals in High-Statistics Neutrino Oscillation Experiments
2020
The current and upcoming generation of Very Large Volume Neutrino Telescopes – collecting unprecedented quantities of neutrino events – can be used to explore subtle effects in oscillation physics, such as (but not restricted to) the neutrino mass ordering. The sensitivity of an experiment to these effects can be estimated from Monte Carlo simulations. With the high number of events that will be collected, there is a trade-off between the computational expense of running such simulations and the inherent statistical uncertainty in the determined values. In such a scenario, it becomes impractical to produce and use adequately-sized sets of simulated events with traditional methods, such as M…
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation over the Right Inferior Parietal Cortex Reduces Transposition Errors in a Syllabic Reordering Task
2021
Evidence derived from functional imaging and brain-lesion studies has shown a strong left lateralization for language, and a complementary right hemisphere dominance for visuospatial abilities. Nevertheless, the symmetrical functional division of the two hemispheres gives no reason for the complexity of the cognitive operations involved in carrying out a linguistic task. In fact, a growing number of neuroimaging and neurostimulation studies suggest a possible right hemisphere involvement in language processing. The objective of this work was to verify the contribution of the left and right parietal areas in a phonological task. We applied anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS…
Highmann's Theorem on Discrete Sets
2006
In this paper we investigate properties of different classes of discrete sets with respect to the partial-order of subpicture. In particular we take in consideration the classes of convex polyominoes and L-convex polyominoes. In the first part of the paper we study closure properties of these classes with respect the order and we give a new characterization of L-convex polyominoes. In the second part we pose the question to extend Higman’s theoremto discrete sets. We give a negative answer in the general case and we prove that the set of L-convex polyominoes is well-partially-ordered by using a representation of L-convex polyominoes in terms of words of a regular language.
Formal specification of open standards and the case of RSS v2.0
2014
Open standardization seems to be very popular among software developers as it makes the standard's adoption by the software engineering community easier and smoother. Formal specification methods, on the other hand, while very promising, are being adopted by protocol engineers very slowly; the industry seems to have little motivation to move into this, almost unknown, territory.In this paper the authors present the i) idea of applying formal methods (formal specification techniques) to open standards' specifications, and ii) an example of a formal specification of open standards, RSS v2.0 in particular. The authors support and provide evidence for the advantages of the open standards formal…
Ražošanas robežas un kārtība: Amatnieciskās mājas vīna darīšanas Latvijā gadījumu izpēte
2015
Pētījums „Ražošanas robežas un kārtība: Amatnieciskās mājas vīna ražošanas Latvijā gadījumu izpēte” fokusējas uz „formālajā tirgus daļā” ieejošo vīndaru pieredzi. Kvalitatīvās metodes ir pielietotas, lai analizētu, kā viņi pieņem, pielāgo vai apstrīd normatīvo regulējumu un pieņēmumus par to, kas ir Latvijas vīns un kā tam vajadzētu tikt ražotam un izplatītam konkrēta tirgus sektora ietvarā post-industriālajā ekonomikā. Analīze rāda, ka vīndari neuztver normatīvo regulējumu kā apgrūtinājumu, bet gan gūst baudu un lepnumu no spējas radīt savu vīnu tā kontekstā un caur to, radot augstas kvalitātes amatniecības produktu, ko iekāro patērētāji. Analīze rāda arī, ka, lai gan ražošanas investīcija…
