Ghost field realizations of the spinor strings based on the linear W(1,2,s) algebras
It has been shown that certain W algebras can be linearized by the inclusion
of a spin-1 current. This Provides a way of obtaining new realizations of the W
algebras. In this paper, we investigate the new ghost field realizations of the
W(2,s)(s=3,4) algebras, making use of the fact that these two algebras can be
linearized. We then construct the nilpotent BRST charges of the spinor
non-critical W(2,s) strings with these new realizations.Comment: 10 pages, no figure
Near-Infrared (NIR) Luminescent Homoleptic Lanthanide Salen Complexes Ln(4)(Salen)(4) (Ln = Nd, Yb Or Er)
The series of homoleptic tetranuclear [Ln(4)(L)(2)(HL)(2)(NO3)(2)(OH)(2)]center dot 2(NO3) (Ln = Nd, 1; Ln = Yb, 2; Ln = Er, 3; Ln = Gd, 4) have been self-assembled from the reaction of the Salen-type Schiff-base ligand H2L with Ln(NO3)(3)center dot 6H(2)O (Ln = Nd, Yb, Er or Gd), respectively (H2L: N, N'-bis(salicylidene) cyclohexane-1,2-diamine). The result of their photophysical properties shows that the strong and characteristic NIR luminescence for complexes 1 and 2 with emissive lifetimes in microsecond ranges are observed and the sensitization arises from the excited state (both (LC)-L-1 and (LC)-L-3) of the Salen-type Schiff-base ligand with the flexible linker.National Natural Science Foundation 21173165, 20871098Ministry of Education of China NCET-10-0936Higher Education of China 20116101110003State Key Laboratory of Structure Chemistry 20100014Education Committee Foundation of Shaanxi Province 11JK0588Hong Kong Research Grants Council, P.

RH20T: A Comprehensive Robotic Dataset for Learning Diverse Skills in One-Shot
A key challenge in robotic manipulation in open domains is how to acquire
diverse and generalizable skills for robots. Recent research in one-shot
imitation learning has shown promise in transferring trained policies to new
tasks based on demonstrations. This feature is attractive for enabling robots
to acquire new skills and improving task and motion planning. However, due to
limitations in the training dataset, the current focus of the community has
mainly been on simple cases, such as push or pick-place tasks, relying solely
on visual guidance. In reality, there are many complex skills, some of which
may even require both visual and tactile perception to solve. This paper aims
to unlock the potential for an agent to generalize to hundreds of real-world
skills with multi-modal perception. To achieve this, we have collected a
dataset comprising over 110,000 contact-rich robot manipulation sequences
across diverse skills, contexts, robots, and camera viewpoints, all collected
in the real world. Each sequence in the dataset includes visual, force, audio,
and action information. Moreover, we also provide a corresponding human
demonstration video and a language description for each robot sequence. We have
invested significant efforts in calibrating all the sensors and ensuring a
high-quality dataset. The dataset is made publicly available at rh20t.github.ioComment: RSS 2023 workshop on LTAMP. The project page is at rh20t.github.i

Genome-wide association study of endometrial cancer in E2C2
Endometrial cancer (EC), a neoplasm of the uterine epithelial lining, is the most common gynecological malignancy in developed countries and the fourth most common cancer among US women. Women with a family history of EC have an increased risk for the disease, suggesting that inherited genetic factors play a role. We conducted a two-stage genome-wide association study of Type I EC. Stage 1 included 5,472 women (2,695 cases and 2,777 controls) of European ancestry from seven studies. We selected independent single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that displayed the most significant associations with EC in Stage 1 for replication among 17,948 women (4,382 cases and 13,566 controls) in a multiethnic population (African America, Asian, Latina, Hawaiian and European ancestry), from nine studies. Although no novel variants reached genome-wide significance, we replicated previously identified associations with genetic markers near the HNF1B locus. Our findings suggest that larger studies with specific tumor classification are necessary to identify novel genetic polymorphisms associated with EC susceptibility.
