Supervised learning with matrix product states : Author: Elisa Brunori
No full textTensor networks play an important role in quantum many body systems, as they are able to represent strongly correlated quantum states, while at the same time avoiding the curse of dimensionality. In 1d especially, Matrix Product States (MPS) can be used to accurately describe the ground state of a gapped Hamiltonian by using only a polynomial number of parameters. Due to their ability to approximate large tensors effectively, tensor networks have recently been implemented in the machine learning field. In this thesis we discuss the work of Stoudenmire and Schwab "Supervised Learning with Quantum-Inspired Tensor Networks", who apply the MPS Ansatz in the supervised learning framework. In particular, we analyse the performance of the model on the MNIST handwritten dataset and additional interesting features arising from this approach.Masterarbeit University of Innsbruck 202

Book description: Latin American Women Writers: An Encyclopedia presents the lives and critical works of over 170 women writers in Latin America between the sixteenth and twentieth centuries. This features thematic entries as well as biographies of female writers whose works were originally published in Spanish or Portuguese, and who have had an impact on literary, political, and social studies.https://openprairie.sdstate.edu/mlgs_book/1004/thumbnail.jp

No full textCharacterization and the impact of in vitro simulated digestion on the stability and bioaccessibility of carotenoids and their esters in two Pouteria lucuma varieties
No full textLucuma is a starchy orange-yellow fruit native to the Andean region. It is widely consumed in Latin America and has been recently adapted to the agronomical characteristics of the south region of Spain. However, its carotenoid profile has never been reported. The aim of this study was to characterize the carotenoid and carotenoid ester composition of lucuma pulps (var. Molina and Beltran) and assess their bioaccessibility with an in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion according to the INFOGEST® methodology. The carotenoid profile in lucuma pulps revealed a high qualitative diversity composed of 33 compounds, corresponding to 9 free xanthophylls, 9 hydrocarbon carotenes and 15 xanthophyll esters. (13Z)-violaxanthin, (all-E)-violaxanthin and (all-E)-antheraxanthin were the most abundant carotenoids in lucuma fruits and were naturally present as xanthophyll esters: (all-E)-antheraxanthin 3-O-palmitate, (all-E)-violaxanthin laurate and (all-E)-violaxanthin palmitate. Carotenoids were stable during in vitro digestion; however, their release from the food matrix was limited which contributed to their low bioaccessibility.The authors would like to express gratitude for the funding received from Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (project INIA RTA2015-00044-C02-02) of Spanish Government. We thank the Institute for Mediterranean and Subtropical Horticulture “La Mayora” (IHSM-UMA-CSIC) in Malaga (Spain) for the lucuma fruits.

A full-scale timbrel cross vault subjected to vertical cyclical displacements in one of its supports
No full text[EN] Up-and-down cyclical displacement of supports-foundations, due for example to the presence of expansive soils, can affect the integrity of a structure and may even lead to its collapse. A recent study carried out at the ICITECH laboratories of the Universitat Politècnica de València analysed the effects of earth settlements on the behaviour of masonry cross vaults. One of the tests involved the construction and testing of a full-scale timbrel cross vault, one of whose supports was subjected to up-and-down vertical displacement cycles. The 4×4 m2 vault was composed of four 3.6 m diameter arches supporting a masonry web. Vertical displacements were applied to one of the supports by means of two synchronised mechanical jacks. The results of the tests provide valuable information to the scientific community, architects and engineers on the behaviour of timbrel cross vaults when one of their supports is subjected to cyclical movements.The authors wish to express their gratitude to the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness for the funding provided through Project BIA 2014-59036-R, and also to LIC-Levantina Ingenieria y Construction and the Grupo Puma for their invaluable assistance.
