3. Advancements in spiking neural network communication and synchronization techniques for event-driven neuromorphic systems

Author: Shahsavari, M., Thomas, D., Gerven, M.A.J. van, Brown, A.D., Luk, W., Shahsavari, M., Thomas, D., Gerven, M.A.J. van, Brown, A.D., and Luk, W.
Abstract: Contains fulltext : 297715.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access), Neuromorphic event-driven systems emulate the computational mechanisms of the brain through the utilization of spiking neural networks (SNN). Neuromorphic systems serve two primary application domains: simulating neural information processing in neuroscience and acting as accelerators for cognitive computing in engineering applications. A distinguishing characteristic of neuromorphic systems is their asynchronous or event-driven nature, but even event-driven systems require some synchronous time management of the neuron populations to guarantee sufficient time for the proper delivery of spiking messages. In this study, we assess three distinct algorithms proposed for adding a synchronization capability to asynchronous event-driven compute systems. We run these algorithms on POETS (Partially Ordered Event-Triggered Systems), a custom-built FPGA-based hardware platform, as a neuromorphic architecture. This study presents the simulation speed of SNNs of various sizes. We explore essential aspects of event-driven neuromorphic system design that contribute to efficient computation and communication. These aspects include varying degrees of connectivity, routing methods, mapping techniques onto hardware components, and firing rates. The hardware mapping and simulation of up to eight million neurons, where each neuron is connected to up to one thousand other neurons, are presented in this work using 3072 reconfigurable processing cores, each of which has 16 hardware threads. Using the best synchronization and communication methods, our architecture design demonstrates 20-fold and 16-fold speedups over the Brian simulator and one 48-chip SpiNNaker node, respectively. We conclude with a brief comparison between our platform and existing large-scale neuromorphic systems in terms of synchronization, routing, and communication methods, to guide the development of future event-driven neuromorphic systems., 14 p.

5. POETS: A parallel cluster architecture for Spiking Neural Network

Author: Shahsavari, M., Beaumont, J., Thomas, D., Brown, A.D., Shahsavari, M., Beaumont, J., Thomas, D., and Brown, A.D.
Abstract: Item does not contain fulltext, Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are known as a branch of neuromorphic computing, and are currently used in neu-roscience applications to understand and model the biological brain. SNNs could also potentially be used in many other application domains such as classification, pattern recognition, and autonomous control. This work presents a highly-scalable hardware platform called POETS, and uses it to implement SNN on a very large number of parallel and reconfigurable FPGA-based processors. The current system consists of 48 FPGAs, providing 3072 processing cores and 49152 threads. We use this hardware to implement up to four million neurons with one thousand synapses. Comparison to other similar platforms shows that the current POETS system is twenty times faster than the Brian simulator, and at least two times faster than SpiNNaker. Index Terms-spiking neural networks, Parallel distributed system, reconfigurable architecture.

Author: Potok, T.E., Shahsavari, M., Thomas, D., Brown, A.D., Luk, W., Potok, T.E., Shahsavari, M., Thomas, D., Brown, A.D., and Luk, W.
Abstract: ICONS 2021: International Conference on Neuromorphic Systems, Item does not contain fulltext, Neuromorphic computing systems simulate spiking neural networks that are used for research into how biological neural networks function, as well as for applied engineering such as robotics, pattern recognition, and machine learning. In this paper, we present a neuromorphic system based on an asynchronous event-based hardware platform. We represent three algorithms for implementing spiking networks on our asynchronous hardware platform. We also discuss different trade-offs between synchronisation and messaging costs. A reinforcement learning method known as Reward-modulated STDP is presented as an online learning algorithm in the network. We evaluate the system performance in a single box of our designed architecture using 6000 concurrent hardware threads and demonstrate scaling to networks with up to 2 million neurons and 400 million synapses. The performance of our architecture is also compared to existing neuromorphic platforms, showing a 20 times speed-up over the Brian simulator on an x86 machine, and a 16 times speed-up over a 48-chip SpiNNaker node.

Abstract: Expanded carrier screening (ECS) for recessive monogenic diseases requires prior knowledge of genomic variation, including DNA variants that cause disease. The composition of pathogenic variants differs greatly among human populations, but historically, research about monogenic diseases has focused mainly on people with European ancestry. By comparison, less is known about pathogenic DNA variants in people from other parts of the world. Consequently, inclusion of currently underrepresented Indigenous and other minority population groups in genomic research is essential to enable equitable outcomes in ECS and other areas of genomic medicine. Here, we discuss this issue in relation to the implementation of ECS in Australia, which is currently being evaluated as part of the national Government’s Genomics Health Futures Mission. We argue that significant effort is required to build an evidence base and genomic reference data so that ECS can bring significant clinical benefit for many Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Australians. These efforts are essential steps to achieving the Australian Government’s objectives and its commitment “to leveraging the benefits of genomics in the health system for all Australians.” They require culturally safe, community-led research and community involvement embedded within national health and medical genomics programs to ensure that new knowledge is integrated into medicine and health services in ways that address the specific and articulated cultural and health needs of Indigenous people. Until this occurs, people who do not have European ancestry are at risk of being, in relative terms, further disadvantaged.

Abstract: It is increasingly recognized that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) exists before dementia is present and that shifts in amyloid beta occur long before clinical symptoms can be detected. Early detection of these molecular changes is a key aspect for the success of interventions aimed at slowing down rates of cognitive decline. Recent evidence indicates that of the two established methods for measuring amyloid, a decrease in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) amyloid β1−42 (Aβ1−42) may be an earlier indicator of Alzheimer’s disease risk than measures of amyloid obtained from Positron Emission Tomography (PET). However, CSF collection is highly invasive and expensive. In contrast, blood collection is routinely performed, minimally invasive and cheap. In this work, we develop a blood-based signature that can provide a cheap and minimally invasive estimation of an individual’s CSF amyloid status using a machine learning approach. We show that a Random Forest model derived from plasma analytes can accurately predict subjects as having abnormal (low) CSF Aβ1−42 levels indicative of AD risk (0.84 AUC, 0.78 sensitivity, and 0.73 specificity). Refinement of the modeling indicates that only APOEε4 carrier status and four plasma analytes (CGA, Aβ1−42, Eotaxin 3, APOE) are required to achieve a high level of accuracy. Furthermore, we show across an independent validation cohort that individuals with predicted abnormal CSF Aβ1−42 levels transitioned to an AD diagnosis over 120 months significantly faster than those with predicted normal CSF Aβ1−42 levels and that the resulting model also validates reasonably across PET Aβ1−42 status (0.78 AUC). This is the first study to show that a machine learning approach, using plasma protein levels, age and APOEε4 carrier status, is able to predict CSF Aβ1−42 status, the earliest risk indicator for AD, with high accuracy.

11. Decreasing event centrality in undergraduates using cognitive bias modification of appraisals

Author: Vermeulen, M., Brown, A.D., Raes, F., Krans, J., Vermeulen, M., Brown, A.D., Raes, F., and Krans, J.
Abstract: Item does not contain fulltext, Event centrality refers to the extent to which a personal event in autobiographical memory serves as a reference point for other experiences, as a turning point in the life-story, and is integrated into components of personal identity. Research has shown that event centrality is positively related to symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, limited research is available on the causal relation between event centrality and PTSD symptoms. We examined this causal link in a series of experiments. A pilot test showed that, out of four manipulations, only a cognitive bias modification training of appraisal (CBM-App) decreased event centrality in participants with high event centrality scores. Next, we tested whether the CBM-App training influenced event centrality and PTSD symptoms in a new sample. Participants in the CBM-App condition reported reduced event centrality compared to participants in a non-centrality control condition. No changes in PTSD symptoms were found. The link between event centrality and PTSD symptoms was mediated by posttraumatic cognitions and rumination. Together, these studies suggest that CBM-App training can lower appraisals of event centrality of a distressing autobiographical memory. Long-term effects on PTSD symptoms will need to be tested in future research.

14. Examining temporal alterations in Social Anxiety Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: The relation between autobiographical memory, future goals, and current self-views

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 177092.pdf (publisher's version ) (Closed access), The self is a multi-faceted and temporally dynamic construct reflecting representations and beliefs about identity in the past, present, and future. Clinical studies have shown that individuals with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) exhibit alterations in self-related processing but these studies have focused primarily on memory. Few studies in PTSD and SAD have examined self-related processing for the present and future, and no studies have directly compared these processes across these two disorders. Individuals diagnosed with PTSD (n = 21), SAD (n = 21), and healthy controls (n = 21) completed cognitive tasks related to the past, present, and future. Disorder congruent temporal alterations were found across both disorders. Further, regression analyses revealed that trauma-related memories were significantly predicted by future goals related to the trauma, whereas social anxiety-related recall was predicted by current socially anxious self-views. Thus, although self-related processing may be common in PTSD and SAD, those aspects of the self most strongly associated with disorder-congruent recall differ by disorder. Self-alterations may be modifiable and developing a better understanding of past, present, and future self-processing might aid in the development of interventions that target these process.

Abstract: The present study investigates the dynamic deformation mechanisms of closed-cell aluminium foams during low velocity drop weight impact with experimental analyses and finite element (FE) simulation. The evolution of foam collapse was explored with FE simulation using ABAQUS/Explicit. X-ray computed tomography (XRT) based geometry was reconstructed to understand the actual microstructural changes during impact. The experimental stress-strain response was compared with FE simulation with reasonably good agreement observed between FE prediction and experimental data. A vertical cross-sectional XRT slice was analysed at different strains from FE simulation to understand the pore collapse mechanisms.

Abstract: Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, first published a century ago, was described by physicist Max Born as "the greatest feat of human thinking about nature."We report on two major scientific breakthroughs involving key predictions of Einstein's theory: the first direct detection of gravitational waves and the first observation of the collision and merger of a pair of black holes. This cataclysmic event, producing the gravitational-wave signal GW150914, took place in a distant galaxy more than one billion light years from the Earth. It was observed on September 14, 2015 by the two detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), arguably the most sensitive scientific instruments ever constructed. LIGO estimated that the peak gravitational-wave power radiated during the final moments of the black hole merger was more than ten times greater than the combined light power from all the stars and galaxies in the observable Universe. This remarkable discovery marks the beginning of an exciting new era of astronomy as we open an entirely new, gravitational-wave window on the Universe.

Abstract: We present the result of searches for gravitational waves from 200 pulsars using data from the first observing run of the Advanced LIGO detectors. We find no significant evidence for a gravitational-wave signal from any of these pulsars, but we are able to set the most constraining upper limits yet on their gravitational-wave amplitudes and ellipticities. For eight of these pulsars, our upper limits give bounds that are improvements over the indirect spindown limit values. For another 32, we are within a factor of 10 of the spin-down limit, and it is likely that some of these will be reachable in future runs of the advanced detector. Taken as a whole, these new results improve on previous limits by more than a factor of two.

Abstract: Parameter estimates of GW150914 were obtained using Bayesian inference, based on three semi-analytic waveform models for binary black hole coalescences. These waveform models differ from each other in their treatment of black hole spins, and all three models make some simplifying assumptions, notably to neglect sub-dominant waveform harmonic modes and orbital eccentricity. Furthermore, while the models are calibrated to agree with waveforms obtained by full numerical solutions of Einstein's equations, any such calibration is accurate only to some non-zero tolerance and is limited by the accuracy of the underlying phenomenology, availability, quality, and parameter-space coverage of numerical simulations. This paper complements the original analyses of GW150914 with an investigation of the effects of possible systematic errors in the waveform models on estimates of its source parameters. To test for systematic errors we repeat the original Bayesian analysis on mock signals from numerical simulations of a series of binary configurations with parameters similar to those found for GW150914. Overall, we find no evidence for a systematic bias relative to the statistical error of the original parameter recovery of GW150914 due to modeling approximations or modeling inaccuracies. However, parameter biases are found to occur for some configurations disfavored by the data of GW150914: for binaries inclined edge-on to the detector over a small range of choices of polarization angles, and also for eccentricities greater than ∼0.05. For signals with higher signal-to-noise ratio than GW150914, or in other regions of the binary parameter space (lower masses, larger mass ratios, or higher spins), we expect that systematic errors in current waveform models may impact gravitational-wave measurements, making more accurate models desirable for future observations.

20. The high-velocity impact of Dyneema® and Spectra® laminates: implementation of a simple thermal softening model.

Author: Austin, S., Brown, A.D., Escobedo, J.P., Wang, H., Kleine, H., and Hazell, P.J.
Subjects: SPECTRUM analysis, HYPERVELOCITY, ULTRAHIGH molecular weight polyethylene, PROJECTILES, POLYCARBONATES
Abstract: The commercial hydrocode ANSYS AUTODYN ® was used to create a thermally dependent model of an Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) composite under high and hypervelocity impact. In particular this model was validated against high-velocity fragment-simulating projectile (FSP) impacts and hypervelocity polycarbonate cylinder impacts at 2,100 m/s and 3,500 m/s. It appeared that despite the same material model being used for thick unidirectional Dyneema ® laminates and thin woven Spectra ® laminates, the model showed reasonable correlation in all cases. This suggests that modelling results from these types of studies are not sensitive to the exact parameters used in the material model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Objective: To assess the extent and quality of the evidence base related to the health and wellbeing of young Indigenous Australians. Study design: Systematic review of peer-reviewed literature; grading of quality of literature; mapping of sample characteristics and study foci. Data sources: English language publications, 1 Jan 1994 - 1 Jan 2011 in MEDLINE, ERIC, CINAHL, EMBASE, ATSIhealth, PsycINFO, the Cochrane Library and the Australian Indigenous HealthInfoNet. Study selection: Inclusion criteria were: published 1 Jan 1994 - 1 Jan 2011; original peer-reviewed research; reported data for Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders aged 10-24 years; focused on health and wellbeing. Grading for quality included ascertainment of Indigenous status, representativeness of the sample for the target population, and quality of measures of exposure and outcome. Data synthesis: 360 peer-reviewed publications met inclusion criteria; 90 (25%) exclusively sampled Indigenous young people. 250 studies (69%) were of good-quality design; 124 of these focused on health outcomes (15 of these evaluated an intervention) and 116 focused on health-risk exposure (26 evaluative). The methodological quality of data improved during 1994- 2010; however, only 17% of studies focused on urban populations. A third of good-quality studies of health outcome focused on communicable diseases such as sexually transmitted infections and tuberculosis. There was good-quality data for oral health and substance use, and some data for adolescent pregnancy. Data on mental disorders, injury and cause-specific mortality were limited. Conclusion(s): Despite improvements, there are important gaps in the evidence base for the health of young Indigenous Australians. Our study points to the need for greater research investment in urban settings and with regard to mental disorders and injury, with a further emphasis on trials of preventive and clinical intervention.

48. Career identity: An ongoing narrative accomplishment

Author: Hoyer, Patrizia, Brown, Andrew D., Brown, A.D., Brown, Andrew D., Organization Sciences, Network Institute, and Organization & Processes of Organizing in Society (OPOS)
Subjects: Narrative identity, Perspective (graphical), Meritocracy, Identity (social science), Change, SDG 10 - Reduced Inequalities, Business studies, Career identity, Epistemology, Protean career, business studies, Boundaryless career, Narrative, Sociology, Career imperatives, social sciences, Continuity
Abstract: This chapter calls for the endorsement of a ‘career perspective’ when theorizing identity in organizations. It argues that especially the concept of ‘career identity’ can be instructive for settling an ongoing controversy among scholars concerning temporal aspects of ‘continuity’ and ‘change’ in narrative identity construction. Since continuity and change are integral to the career notion, a career perspective helps to explain the under-explored coexistence of dynamic and at the same time stable dimensions of identity. This insight is particularly relevant in light of the changing relationships between organizations and their employees, where career paths are increasingly becoming more discontinuous and therefore unpredictable, protean, and boundaryless. Moreover, the chapter argues that a career perspective on identity helps to raise critical questions regarding how widely dispersed career imperatives influence people’s career choices, and how these imperatives can be resisted.

49. Membership categorization analysis : studying identities in talk and text ‘in situ, in vivo’

Author: Frank Mueller, Andrea Whittle, and Brown, A.D.
Subjects: Ethnomethodology, Conversation analysis, Categorization, Discourse analysis, Psychology, Linguistics
Abstract: This chapter’s analysis of a New York Times op-ed article reveals how moral reasoning was undertaken in relation to three identities: the identity of Trump as an incumbent of the role of President, the identity of the writer, and, third, the identity of the collective group of Senior Officials. The moral accountability of Trump was articulated through a set of category predicates normatively associated with Presidents and category predicates normatively associated with Republicans. To have an identity is to be cast into a ‘typification’ or social type with an associated set of expectations about one’s role, relationships, and responsibilities within a culture or social structure. The chapter argues that the ethnomethodological approach underpinning membership categorization analysis (MCA) asks ‘How is identity done, managed, achieved and negotiated in situ?’ Indeed, MCA asks how people draw on and use social identities, in talk or text, in getting their everyday business done. This way of approaching the study of identity is different to other approaches that start with theories of self, or discourse, or power. To conclude, MCA enables us to analyse how, when a social category is used, the person being described is also being judged according to the set of normative expectations associated with that category.

50. Performance management in health systems and services: Studies on its development and use at international, national/jurisdictional, and hospital levels

Author: Veillard, J.H.M., Klazinga, N.S., Brown, A.D., and Faculteit der Geneeskunde
Abstract: De economische en financiële crisis, en de stijgende uitgaven in de zorg hebben de belangstelling voor het prestatiemanagement in de zorg vergroot. Jeremy Veillard onderzocht hoe het sturen op prestatie kan worden toegepast in de zorg op zowel internationaal en nationaal niveau, als op het niveau van een ziekenhuis. Hij concludeert dat het sturen op prestaties nauw moet aansluiten op de manier waarop de zorg wordt gemanaged. Ook stelt hij dat er goede hulpmiddelen moeten komen waarmee managers en politici het sturen op prestatie kunnen gebruiken.
