Thermodynamic Properties of Kagome Antiferromagnets with different Perturbations

We discuss the results of several small perturbations to the thermodynamic properties of Kagome Lattice Heisenberg Model (KLHM) at high and intermediate temperatures, including Curie impurities, dilution, in-plane and out of plane Dzyaloshinski-Moria (DM) anisotropies and exchange anisotropy. We examine the combined role of Curie impurities and dilution in the behavior of uniform susceptibility. We also study the changes in specific heat and entropy with various anisotropies. Their relevance to newly discovered materials ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2 is explored. We find that the magnetic susceptibility is well described by about 6 percent impurity and dilution. We also find that the entropy difference between the material and KLHM is well described by the DM parameter D_z/J~0.1.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, proceedings of the HFM 2008 Conferenc

Time After Time: Notes on Delays In Spiking Neural P Systems

Spiking Neural P systems, SNP systems for short, are biologically inspired computing devices based on how neurons perform computations. SNP systems use only one type of symbol, the spike, in the computations. Information is encoded in the time differences of spikes or the multiplicity of spikes produced at certain times. SNP systems with delays (associated with rules) and those without delays are two of several Turing complete SNP system variants in literature. In this work we investigate how restricted forms of SNP systems with delays can be simulated by SNP systems without delays. We show the simulations for the following spike routing constructs: sequential, iteration, join, and split.Comment: 11 pages, 9 figures, 4 lemmas, 1 theorem, preprint of Workshop on Computation: Theory and Practice 2012 at DLSU, Manila together with UP Diliman, DLSU, Tokyo Institute of Technology, and Osaka universit

Deriving N-soliton solutions via constrained flows

The soliton equations can be factorized by two commuting x- and t-constrained flows. We propose a method to derive N-soliton solutions of soliton equations directly from the x- and t-constrained flows.Comment: 8 pages, AmsTex, no figures, to be published in Journal of Physics

Dimensionality Reduction in Deep Learning for Chest X-Ray Analysis of Lung Cancer

Efficiency of some dimensionality reduction techniques, like lung segmentation, bone shadow exclusion, and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) for exclusion of outliers, is estimated for analysis of chest X-ray (CXR) 2D images by deep learning approach to help radiologists identify marks of lung cancer in CXR. Training and validation of the simple convolutional neural network (CNN) was performed on the open JSRT dataset (dataset #01), the JSRT after bone shadow exclusion - BSE-JSRT (dataset #02), JSRT after lung segmentation (dataset #03), BSE-JSRT after lung segmentation (dataset #04), and segmented BSE-JSRT after exclusion of outliers by t-SNE method (dataset #05). The results demonstrate that the pre-processed dataset obtained after lung segmentation, bone shadow exclusion, and filtering out the outliers by t-SNE (dataset #05) demonstrates the highest training rate and best accuracy in comparison to the other pre-processed datasets.Comment: 6 pages, 14 figure

Constructing N-soliton solution for the mKdV equation through constrained flows

Based on the factorization of soliton equations into two commuting integrable x- and t-constrained flows, we derive N-soliton solutions for mKdV equation via its x- and t-constrained flows. It shows that soliton solution for soliton equations can be constructed directly from the constrained flows.Comment: 10 pages, Latex, to be published in "J. Phys. A: Math. Gen.

B\"{a}cklund transformations for high-order constrained flows of the AKNS hierarchy: canonicity and spectrality property

New infinite number of one- and two-point B\"{a}cklund transformations (BTs) with explicit expressions are constructed for the high-order constrained flows of the AKNS hierarchy. It is shown that these BTs are canonical transformations including B\"{a}cklund parameter $\eta$ and a spectrality property holds with respect to $\eta$ and the 'conjugated' variable $\mu$ for which the point $(\eta, \mu)$ belongs to the spectral curve. Also the formulas of m-times repeated Darboux transformations for the high-order constrained flows of the AKNS hierarchy are presented.Comment: 21 pages, Latex, to be published in J. Phys.
