Emotion Detection for Social Robots Based on NLP Transformers and an Emotion Ontology.

For social robots, knowledge regarding human emotional states is an essential part of adapting their behavior or associating emotions to other entities. Robots gather the information from which emotion detection is processed via different media, such as text, speech, images, or videos. The multimedia content is then properly processed to recognize emotions/sentiments, for example, by analyzing faces and postures in images/videos based on machine learning techniques or by converting speech into text to perform emotion detection with natural language processing (NLP) techniques. Keeping this information in semantic repositories offers a wide range of possibilities for implementing smart applications. We propose a framework to allow social robots to detect emotions and to store this information in a semantic repository, based on EMONTO (an EMotion ONTOlogy), and in the first figure or table caption. Please define if appropriate. an ontology to represent emotions. As a proof-of-concept, we develop a first version of this framework focused on emotion detection in text, which can be obtained directly as text or by converting speech to text. We tested the implementation with a case study of tour-guide robots for museums that rely on a speech-to-text converter based on the Google Application Programming Interface (API) and a Python library, a neural network to label the emotions in texts based on NLP transformers, and EMONTO integrated with an ontology for museums; thus, it is possible to register the emotions that artworks produce in visitors. We evaluate the classification model, obtaining equivalent results compared with a state-of-the-art transformer-based model and with a clear roadmap for improvement.

Toward Better Planetary Surface Exploration by Orbital Imagery Inpainting

Planetary surface images are collected by sophisticated imaging devices onboard the orbiting spacecraft. Although these images enable scientists to discover and visualize the unknown, they often suffer from the `no-data' region because the data could not be acquired by the onboard instrument due to the limitation in operation time of the instrument and satellite orbiter control. This greatly reduces the usability of the captured data for scientific purposes. To alleviate this problem, in this article, we propose a machine learning-based `no-data' region prediction algorithm. Specifically, we leverage a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) based image inpainting algorithm to predict such unphotographed pixels in a context-aware fashion using adversarial learning on planetary images. The benefit of using our proposed method is to augment features in the unphotographed regions leading to better downstream tasks such as interesting landmark classification. We use the Moon and Mars orbital images captured by the JAXA's Kaguya mission and NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) for experimental purposes and demonstrate that our method can fill in the unphotographed regions on the Moon and Mars images with good visual and perceptual quality as measured by improved PSNR and SSIM scores. Additionally, our image inpainting algorithm helps in improved feature learning for CNN-based landmark classification as evidenced by an improved F1-score of 0.88 compared to 0.83 on the original Mars dataset.COMP: Please replace colons appearing after figure numbers and table numbers with period in all figure and table captions.

Efficacy and Safety Profile of Proteasome Inhibitor Based Drug Regimens for Treatment of Newly Diagnosed AL Amyloidosis: A Systematic Review

Introduction: Light chain amyloidosis (AL) is a plasma cell disorder associated with detrimental manifestations in multiple organ systems of the body. It is estimated that approximately 1275-3200 new cases occur in the United States annually. Proteasome inhibitors (PI), such as bortezomib, carfilzomib, and ixazomib used for multiple myeloma treatment are also used for the treatment of AL amyloidosis. Our aim in this review is to evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of PI-based regimens for the treatment of newly diagnosed AL Amyloidosis (ND-AL). Methods: We conducted a systematic review (following PRISMA guidelines) by completing a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Cochrane, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Embase on June 23rd, 2020. We were able to identify 901 articles, 325 articles from PubMed, 50 from Cochrane, 23 from Clinical Trials.org, and 253 from Embase. After the screening, we selected 11 published studies (n=436) including 5 phase lll trials, 2 phase I/II trials. Results: Cyclophosphamide, Bortezomib, Dexamethasone (CyBorD) with or without Daratumumab (Dara): In a Phase lll trial (ANDEROMADA study), Palldini et al. (2020) studied the efficacy of Dara+ CyBorD vs CyBorD in ND-AL pts (n=28). The addition of Dara to CyBorD showed an improved overall hematological response (ORR) in 96% with complete response (CR) in 54% pts at a median follow up of 17.6 months (Table 1). In a retrospective study by Lim et al. (2017), CyBorD was given to ND-AL pts (n=39) which showed an ORR in 63% with very good partial response (VGPR) in 50% pts. In a retrospective study by Diaz-Pallares et al. (2020), CyBord was given to ND-AL pts (n=34) which showed an ORR in 91% with CR, VGPR, and partial response (PR) in 26%, 26%, and 38% pts, respectively. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were reported at 26.7 months and 22 months (P=0.06) respectively (Table 1). Bortezomib, Melphalan, Dexamethasone (BMD): In a phase III trial (EMN-03 study), Kastritis et al. (2020) studied the efficacy of BMD vs MD in ND-AL pts (n=109). Addition of B to MD showed an improved ORR: 81% vs 56% (p=0.001) with CR/VGPR in 53% vs 28% pts. No significant difference in survival outcome was observed. In a phase III trial, Kastritis et al. (2015) studied the efficacy of BMD vs MD in ND-AL pts (n=69). Addition of B to MD showed an improved ORR: 75% vs 53% (p=0.075) with CR/VGPR in 56% vs 42% pts (p=0.277). OS and PFS were also improved in BMD group as compared to control group: 83% vs 72% (p= 0.295) and 61% vs 49% (p=0.079) at 2 years, respectively (Table 1). Bortezomib, Melphalan, Prednisolone (BMP): In a retrospective study by Lee et al. (2014), BMP was given to ND-AL pts (n=19) which showed an ORR in 84% pts with CR, VGPR and PR in 37%, 21% and 26% pts, respectively (Table 1). Induction with B based regimens for ASCT: In a Phase lll trial (HOVON 104), Minnema et al. (2019), studied the efficacy of BD induction prior to HDM/ASCT in pts (n=35) with ND-AL. At 6 months, BD induction prior to HDM/ASCT vs No BD Induction prior to HDM/ASCT showed an ORR: 80% vs 80% with an improved CR: 43% vs 5% and VGPR: 54% vs 51%. In a Phase I/II trial by Sanchorawala et al. (2015), BD induction followed by B-HDM conditioning for ASCT was done in pts (n=27) with ND-AL. ORR at 6 months post ASCT was observed in 100% pts with CR and VGPR in 63% and 37% pts, respectively (Table 1). Induction with B based regimen prior to ASCT vs Upfront ASCT: In a retrospective analysis by Scharman et al. (2017), 53 pts who received ASCT were categorized into 3 groups i.e. Upfront ASCT, induction with B based regimen and induction with other regimens. ND-AL Patients (n=34/53) receiving B based induction vs no induction showed an improved ORR: 94% vs 69% (p=0.04). OS also improved in B based induction as compared to no induction group: 87% vs 77% (p=0.22) at 3 years. PFS at 3 years was 61% vs 69%, respectively (Table 1). Conclusions: PI-based regimens have shown favorable outcomes in the treatment of ND-AL and are effective therapeutic options. The most promising results are observed with CyBorD+Dara. The adverse events associated with PI-based therapy are peripheral neuropathy, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and infections. Further prospective clinical trials are warranted for a broader understanding of the safety and efficacy profile of PI-based regimens and correlation with individual pts characteristics.

Semantic Publishing Enables Text Mining of Biotic Interactions

Introduction Scholarly literature is the primary source for biodiversity knowledge based on observations, field work, analysis and taxonomic classification. Publishing such literature in semantically enhanced formats (e.g., through Extensible Markup Language (XML) tagging) helps to make this knowledge easily accessible and available to humans and actionable by computers. A recent collaboration between Pensoft Publishers and Global Biotic Interactions (GloBI) (Poelen et al. 2014) demonstrates how semantically published literature can be used to extract species interactions from tables published in the article narratives (Dimitrova et al. 2020) (Fig. 1). Methods Biotic interactions were extracted from scholarly literature tables published in several biodiversity journals from Pensoft. Semantically enhanced publications were processed to extract the tables from the article XMLs. There were 6993 tables from 21 different journals. Using the Pensoft Annotator, a text-to-ontology mapping tool, we were able to detect tables that could contain biotic interactions. The Pensoft Annotator was used together with a modified subset of the OBO Foundry Relation Ontology (RO), concentrating on the term labeled ‘biotically interacts with’ and all its children. The contents and captions of all tables were run through the Pensoft Annotator, which returned the matching ontology terms and their position in the text. The resulting subset of tables was then processed by GloBI, which parsed the tables to extract the taxonomic names participating in each interaction. The GloBI workflow also generated table citations by SPARQL queries to the OpenBiodiv triple store where all table and article metadata are stored (Penev et al. 2019). OpenBiodiv was also used as a taxon name knowledge base to expand the taxon hierarchy in the tables and to guide the merging of overlapping taxon hierarchies in a single row (e.g., host plant family + host plant species -> host plant species). Taxon name resolution of species interactions was done under the assumption that two non-overlapping taxa are found in a single column. The exact interaction types between the species were not determined, instead the general term labelled “interacts with” was used. Results Annotation of biotic interactions via the Pensoft Annotator helped to identify 233 tables possibly containing biotic interactions out of the 6993 tables that were processed. Semantic annotation of taxonomic names within tables allowed GloBI to index the species including their complete taxonomic hierarchies. Currently, GloBI has indexed 2378 interactions, extracted from a subset of 46 of the 233 tables. Interactions extracted via this workflow are available on a special webpage on GloBI's website. Records of the communication behind this collaborative work between GloBI and Pensoft are publically available. Discussion & Conclusion One of the limitations of the workflow was the inability to detect the directionality of the interactions. In other words, the tables do not contain information about the subject and object of a given interaction. For instance, in a host-parasite interaction, we can not automatically detect which species is the host and which is the parasite. We plan to address this issue by performing semantic analysis (e.g., part-of-speech tagging) of the table captions to determine the exact subjects and objects in the interactions. In addition, complicated table structures impeded both the processing of tables by the Pensoft Annotator and their parsing by GloBI’s algorithms. We recognise the importance of adopting common formats for sharing interaction data, a practice that would greatly improve the post-publication indexing of tables by GloBI. An example of a standardised table structure is the standard table template for primary biodiversity data, introduced by Pensoft (Penev et al. 2020). The template helps authors create semantically enhanced tables, which in turn enables direct harvesting and conversion to interlinked FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) data. Indexing of biotic interactions by GloBI and Pensoft demonstrates the advantages of storing semantically enhanced data in tables. The adoption of the standard appendix table for primary biodiversity data would improve our ability to extract biotic interactions and to transform scholarly narrative into fully interoperable Linked Open Data.

Designing a Transactive Framework for Future Distribution Systems

This article introduces a novel transactive energy management mechanism for future distribution systems with private microgrids. A third-party agent based on a transactive energy trading mechanism is designed which provides secure information sharing between participants. The proposed third-part agent acts as an independent economic entity (IEE) and clears the local energy market between the microgrid and distribution system. IEE determines the transactions corresponding to the maximum social welfare based on participants' submitted economic values. The economic values of entities are bids for buying and offers for selling the power. Two different pricing strategies for the approved transactions are presented. Distributed optimization for the self-scheduling based on an alternating direction method of multipliers has been implemented. Distributed optimization in a rolling fashion satisfies equality of complicated voltage magnitude, and voltage angles constraints at the connection buses. Furthermore, the participation of the distribution system in the day-ahead and real-time markets besides the transactive market is studied. The proposed structure is evaluated on a test distribution system with three microgrids in terms of energy trading analysis, and operation scheduling.

Enhanced Function and Overexpression of Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors 1 and 5 in the Spinal Cord of the SOD1G93A Mouse Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis during Disease Progression.

Glutamate (Glu)-mediated excitotoxicity is a major cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and our previous work highlighted that abnormal Glu release may represent a leading mechanism for excessive synaptic Glu. We demonstrated that group I metabotropic Glu receptors (mGluR1, mGluR5) produced abnormal Glu release in SOD1G93A mouse spinal cord at a late disease stage (120 days). Here, we studied this phenomenon in pre-symptomatic (30 and 60 days) and early-symptomatic (90 days) SOD1G93A mice. The mGluR1/5 agonist (S)-3,5-Dihydroxyphenylglycine (3,5-DHPG) concentration dependently stimulated the release of [3H]d-Aspartate ([3H]d-Asp), which was comparable in 30- and 60-day-old wild type mice and SOD1G93A mice. At variance, [3H]d-Asp release was significantly augmented in 90-day-old SOD1G93A mice and both mGluR1 and mGluR5 were involved. The 3,5-DHPG-induced [3H]d-Asp release was exocytotic, being of vesicular origin and mediated by intra-terminal Ca2+ release. mGluR1 and mGluR5 expression was increased in Glu spinal cord axon terminals of 90-day-old SOD1G93A mice, but not in the whole axon terminal population. Interestingly, mGluR1 and mGluR5 were significantly augmented in total spinal cord tissue already at 60 days. Thus, function and expression of group I mGluRs are enhanced in the early-symptomatic SOD1G93A mouse spinal cord, possibly participating in excessive Glu transmission and supporting their implication in ALS.

Solvate Structures and Transport Properties in Highly Concentrated Li[FSA]/Succinonitrile Liquid Electrolytes

Highly concentrated Li salt electrolyte solutions have attracted attention recently due to the unique physicochemical and electrochemical properties.1 Recently, our group reported that Li+ ion hopping conduction is involved in the ionic conduction in highly concentrated Li salt/sulfolane electrolytes.2 Similar Li+ transport was also observed for the highly concentrated lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)amide (LiFSA)/keto ester electrolytes.3 We found that the solvent molecules, having two coordinating sites, bridge different Li+ ions, resulting in the formation of the solvent-bridged network structures of Li+−solvent−Li+ in these highly concentrated electrolytes. Therefore, highly concentrated electrolytes with certain solvents having multiple coordinating sites are anticipated to exhibit Li+ ion hopping conduction. We report here the phase behaviors, solvate structures and transport properties of highly concentrated electrolytes composed of LiFSA and succinonitrile (SN) solvent, which has two cyano groups in the molecular structure. LiFSA and SN form a stable complex at 1:2 molar ratio, and the melting point of the solvate of LiFSA-(SN)2 is 63.4 °C. X-ray crystallography for the solvate of LiFSA-(SN)2 revealed that the SN molecule bridges two different Li+ ions in the crystal. At a molar ratio higher than [LiFSA]/[SN] = 1/1, the mixture becomes a glass forming liquid, and the [LiFSA]/[SN] = 1/0.8 mixture maintains a liquid state at room temperature. Raman spectra for [LiFSA]/[SN] = 1/0.8 suggested that solvent-bridged structure of Li+−SN−Li+ is still maintained in the liquid. In addition to the solvent-bridged structure, anion bridged structure of Li+−FSA−−Li+ is also formed in the solvent-deficient mixture of [LiFSA]/[SN] = 1/0.8. The self-diffusion coefficients of Li+, FSA−, and SN measured with pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR suggested that Li+ ion diffuses faster than anion and SN (Table 1), and the Li+ ion hopping conduction emerges in these liquid electrolytes having the polymeric network structures. The [LiFSA]/[SN] = 1/0.8 electrolyte possesses a wide electrochemical window, and the graphite anode and LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 cathode of Li-ion batteries can be charged and discharged reversibly in this electrolyte.

Text Generation From Tables

This paper proposes a neural generative model, namely Table2Seq, to generate a natural language sentence based on a table. Specifically, the model maps a table to continuous vectors and then generates a natural language sentence by leveraging the semantics of a table. Since rare words, e.g., entities and values, usually appear in a table, we develop a flexible copying mechanism that selectively replicates contents from the table to the output sequence. We conduct extensive experiments to demonstrate the effectiveness of our Table2Seq model and the utility of the designed copying mechanism. On the WIKIBIO and SIMPLEQUESTIONS datasets, the Table2Seq model improves the state-of-the-art results from 34.70 to 40.26 and from 33.32 to 39.12 in terms of BLEU-4 scores, respectively. Moreover, we construct an open-domain dataset WIKITABLETEXT that includes 13 318 descriptive sentences for 4962 tables. Our Table2Seq model achieves a BLEU-4 score of 38.23 on WIKITABLETEXT outperforming template-based and language model based approaches. Furthermore, through experiments on 1 M table-query pairs from a search engine, our Table2Seq model considering the structured part of a table, i.e., table attributes and table cells, as additional information outperforms a sequence-to-sequence model considering only the sequential part of a table, i.e., table caption.

Archivist: An R Package for Managing, Recording and Restoring Data Analysis Results

Everything that exists in R is an object [Chambers2016]. This article examines what would be possible if we kept copies of all R objects that have ever been created. Not only objects but also their properties, meta-data, relations with other objects and information about context in which they were created. We introduce archivist, an R package designed to improve the management of results of data analysis. Key functionalities of this package include: (i) management of local and remote repositories which contain R objects and their meta-data (objects' properties and relations between them); (ii) archiving R objects to repositories; (iii) sharing and retrieving objects (and it's pedigree) by their unique hooks; (iv) searching for objects with specific properties or relations to other objects; (v) verification of object's identity and context of it's creation. The presented archivist package extends, in a combination with packages such as knitr and Sweave, the reproducible research paradigm by creating new ways to retrieve and validate previously calculated objects. These new features give a variety of opportunities such as: sharing R objects within reports or articles; adding hooks to R objects in table or figure captions; interactive exploration of object repositories; caching function calls with their results; retrieving object's pedigree (information about how the object was created); automated tracking of the performance of considered models, restoring R libraries to the state in which object was archived.

It may also be a historical overview of a topic (e.g. historical perspective of a prehistoric technology, or historical overview of a particular theory), or it may be a summary of knowledge about a lithic material itself or a scientific method. In general, these articles should include an overview of the history of the topic (e.g. history of lithics research in the region) as well as an overview of the current research being done on the topic. They should contain a large bibliography so that readers can use the articles as a starting point for finding references. The author should indicate recommended references.Recommended word limit: 4000 words. General description.The following are the general modifications for English articles with a secondary language. The main difference is that there is an extended abstract in the secondary language (in addition to the regular abstract in English) which is longer than normal. The main purpose of these articles is to help disseminate research in the area in which it was conducted. The extended abstracts help readers determine the content of the article if they have limited English reading skills. Bilingual articles:1. Articles have an extended abstract in the secondary language (see below).2. The title is translated into the secondary language.3. Keywords are in both languages.4. For articles using non-Latin alphabets (e.g. Cyrillic, Arabic, Chinese), Romanisations of the author’s names and contact information are used in the primary front page, but appear in their original alphabet along with the secondary language title and abstract.5. Figure and table captions appear in both English and the secondary language. Figures which contain English text which would be different in the secondary language (e.g. place names or object labels) will have either an explanation or translation in the translated caption, or will provide a glossary at the end of the article. Alternatively, text on the figure may be in both languages if it does not detract from the image.6. As in regular articles, bibliographic references which are not in English will include a translation of the title into English. They may also have a second translation of the title into the secondary language of the article. Additionally, references which are in English will include a translation of the title into the secondary language of this article. Extended abstracts:7. 500-1000 words.8. Follow the same format as the article but have no headings.9. Must mention methodology, overview of results, and conclusions.10. Appear at the end of the article (along with the secondary language title and keywords).
