Letter, Setsuyo K. Yoshida to War Relocation Authority
A copy of a letter from Setsuyo K. Yoshida to the War Relocation Authority. The letter explains Mrs. Yoshida's feelings about her repatriation to Japan and requests to accompany her husband and act like a family since she is expecting a baby in January 1946. She mentions how she and her husband are law abiding natural born citizens who were interned at Tule Lake. She mentions how the act of detainment is a black mark on American history. She makes a comparison to Italians and Germans who the USA was also at war with but those citizens were not detained.This letter speaks for herself, and for her father, Tokuzo Rokuta, and her son, Toshika Yoshida. 4 pages, single sided. Paper, ink.Collected by Louis M. Noyes at Tule Lake

Letter from Y. Yoshida to Mrs. K. Nakatani, January 1. 1982
Letter from Yoshiko Yoshida to Kikuye Nakatani. It encloses a picture of a memorial monument dedicated to the soldiers of the Japanese battleship, Yamato, including the ship anchor. Yoshiko writes about the calligraphy on the rock in the photo, which was drawn by her husband, Mitsuru Yoshida.The collection consists of documents, diaries, letters, books, calendars, newspapers, photographs, artifacts and audiovisual media pertaining to Kikuyo Morimoto Nakatani, a Japanese-born woman who lived in Isleton, California. During World War II, her family was incarcerated in the Minidoka and Tule Lake incarceration camps. After the war, she moved to Los Angeles and studied tea with Madame Sosei Matsumoto, and became a tea master acknowledged by the Urasenke Headquarters in Japan. The collection also contains letters from her son, Kunio, who served aboard the Yamato battleship for the Empire of Japan during World War II

Matrix Model and beta-deformed N=4 SYM
This work is the result of the ideas developed by Ken Yoshida about the possibility of extending the range of applications of the matrix model approach to the computation of the holomorphic superpotential of the beta-deformed N=4 super Yang-Mills theory both in the presence of a mass term and in the massless limit. Our formulae, while agreeing with all the existing results we can compare with, are valid also in the case of spontaneously broken gauge symmetry.
We dedicate this paper to the memory of Ken, an unforgettable friend for all of us and a great scientist
Timed Runtime Monitoring for Multiparty Conversations
We propose a dynamic verification framework for protocols in real-time distributed systems. The framework is based on Scribble, a tool-chain for design and verification of choreographies based on multiparty session types, developed with our industrial partners. Drawing from recent work on multiparty session types for real-time interactions, we extend Scribble with clocks, resets, and clock predicates constraining the times in which interactions should occur. We present a timed API for Python to program distributed implementations of Scribble specifications. A dynamic verification framework ensures the safe execution of applications written with our timed API: we have implemented dedicated runtime monitors that check that each interaction occurs at a correct timing with respect to the corresponding Scribble specification. The performance of our implementation and its practicability are analysed via benchmarking
Slip Angle Estimation for Lunar and Planetary Robots
Vehicle slip is a critical issue for mobile robots driving across loose soil. It is responsible for gradual deviation of the vehicle from the intended course, resulting in large drift and poor performance of localization and control systems, even leading, in extreme cases, to the danger of vehicle entrapment with consequent mission failure. This paper presents a novel method for lateral slip estimation based on visually observing the trace produced by the wheels of the robot, during traverse of soft, deformable terrain, as that expected for lunar and planetary rovers. The proposed algorithm uses a robust Hough transform enhanced by fuzzy reasoning to estimate the angle of inclination of the wheel trace with respect to the vehicle reference frame. Any deviation of the wheel trace from the planned path of the robot suggests occurrence of sideslip that can be detected, and more interestingly, measured. This allows the vehicle to estimate its actual heading angle, usually referred to as the slip angle. The details of the various steps of the visual algorithm are presented and the results of experimental tests performed in the field with an all-terrain rover are described, proving the method to be effective and robust
