Non-autonomous Ginzburg-Landau solitons using the He-Li mapping method

MAXIMINO PEREZ MALDONADO Haret Codratian Rosu ELIZABETH FLORES GARDUÑO (2022, [Artículo])

"We find and discuss the non-autonomous soliton solutions in the case of variable nonlinearity and dispersion implied by the Ginzburg-Landau equation with variable coefficients. In this work we obtain non-autonomous Ginzburg-Landau solitons from the standard autonomous Ginzburg-Landau soliton solutions using a simplified version of the He-Li mapping. We find soliton pulses of both arbitrary and fixed amplitudes in terms of a function constrained by a single condition involving the nonlinearity and the dispersion of the medium. This is important because it can be used as a tool for the parametric manipulation of these non-autonomous solitons. "

Abordar el tema de literatura de no ficción resulta relevante tanto para el estudio de la literatura como para el del periodismo, ya que es dentro de estas dos áreas donde este género encuentra sus fronteras. Existen diversos artículos e investigaciones que se han encargado de estudiar el tema, en la mayoría de los casos estos estudios parten de las obras fundacionales de la no ficción. Entre ellas se encuentran: Operación Masacre (1957) de Rodolfo Walsh, A sangre fría (1966) de Truman Capote y Los ejércitos de la noche (1968) de Norman Mailer. Sin embargo, son pocas las investigaciones que se han encargado del estudió de la no ficción en México, su surgimiento y obras fundacionales. Por este motivo, en la siguiente investigación se analizará el cuarto capítulo de la novela Asesinato (1985) del escritor Vicente Leñero. En esta novela es donde se pueden observar con mayor claridad los elementos propios de la no ficción, así como el estilo dado por Leñero a este género. Elementos que lo vuelven uno de los fundadores de este género en la narrativa mexicana del siglo XX. Para sustentar teóricamente el análisis de este texto se retomarán las ideas expuestas por Tom Wolf y Jonh Hollowell, respecto al tema del llamado “Nuevo periodismo” o Literatura de no ficción. Finalmente, para entender el término “nuevo periodismo” en la narrativa mexicana es necesario revisar de forma general la evolución del periodismo en México, ya que éste sentó las bases para la creación de la no ficción. Son las técnicas de representación de la no ficción las que permiten observar la evolución del periodismo. La información ya no está delimitada a la transmisión llana del hecho. Ahora la voz de los sujetos implicados, así como la del periodista son tan importantes como la acción misma. Lo imparcial adquiere un tono personal.

Detección de comportamiento no verbal en interacción humano-robot

Detection of non-verbal behavior in human-robot interaction

Ernesto Adrián Lozano De la Parra (2023, [Tesis de maestría])

La comunicación no verbal desempeña un papel vital en la interacción humana. En el contexto de la interacción humano-robot (IHR), los robots sociales están diseñados principalmente para la comunicación verbal con los humanos, dejando a la comunicación no verbal como un área de investigación abierta. En este trabajo, se presenta una arquitectura flexible y abierta llamada Software Arquitechture for Nonverbal Interaction in Human-Robot Interaction (SANI-HRI) diseñada para facilitar las interacciones no verbales en IHR. Entre sus componentes se encuentra un Cuaderno Computacional P2P basado en navegador web, aprovechado para codificar, ejecutar y compartir programas reactivos. Pueden incluirse modelos de aprendizaje automático para el reconocimiento en tiempo real de gestos, poses y estados de ´animo, empleando protocolos como MQTT. Otro componente clave es un Broker para distribuir datos entre distintos dispositivos físicos, como robots, dispositivos vestibles y sensores ambientales, así como modelos de aprendizaje automático que comprendan diferentes tipos de datos. Se demuestra la utilidad de esta arquitectura mediante tres escenarios de interacción: (i) el primero que emplea la proxémica y la dirección de la mirada para iniciar un encuentro improvisado, (ii) un segundo que utiliza técnicas de visión por computadora para detectar y analizar expresiones faciales y corporales, así como el uso sensores biométricos para obtener datos de ritmo cardiaco durante una rutina de ejercicio, y (iii) un tercero que incorpora el reconocimiento de objetos y Modelos de Lenguaje Grandes para sugerir comidas a cocinar en función de los ingredientes disponibles. Estos escenarios ilustran cómo los componentes de la arquitectura pueden integrarse para abordar nuevos escenarios, en los que los robots necesitan inferir señales no verbales de los usuarios.

Nonverbal communication plays a vital role in human interaction. In the context of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), social robots are designed primarily for verbal-based communication with humans, making nonverbal communication an open research area. We present a flexible, open framework called Software Architecture for Nonverbal Interaction in Human-Robot Interaction (SANI-HRI) designed to facilitate nonverbal interactions in HRI. Among its components it has a P2P Browser-Based Computational Notebook, leveraged to code, run, and share reactive programs. Machine-learning models can be included for real-time recognition of gestures, poses, and moods, employing protocols such as MQTT. Another key component is a broker for distributing data among different physical devices like the robot, wearables, and environmental sensors and also machine learning models. We demonstrate this framework’s utility through three interaction scenarios: (i) the first one employing proxemics and gaze direction to initiate an impromptu encounter, (ii) a second that uses computer vision techniques to detect and analyze facial and body expressions, as well as the use of biometric sensors to obtain heart rate data during a workout routine, and (iii) a third one incorporating object recognition and a Large-Language Model to suggest meals to be cooked based on available ingredients. These scenarios illustrate how the framework’s components can be seamlessly integrated to address new scenarios, where robots need to infer nonverbal cues from users.

Hyperiid amphipods from the Gulf of Ulloa and offshore region, Baja California: The possible role of the gelatinous zooplankton as a transport vector into the coastal shelf waters

Bertha Lavaniegos (2020, [Artículo])

Hyperiid amphipod species from the Gulf of Ulloa, Baja California, and the adjacent region (from the shelf break to 200 km offshore) were analyzed to evaluate diversity and abundances. This productive area supports small-scale commercial fisheries, including sand bass (Paralabrax nebulifer), California spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus), abalones, clams, and others. Strong coastal upwelling events were observed during summer seasons of the period 2002-2008 between Punta Eugenia and Punta Abreojos. The upwelling plumes at Punta Abreojos are transported southward in slope waters bordering the coastal shelf of the Gulf of Ulloa, contributing to the separation of coastal and oceanic regions, and explain differences in amphipod diversity and abundances between both regions. In the offshore region, the most abundant species were Vibilia armata, Lestrigonus schizogeneios, Primno brevidens, and Eupronoe minuta, similar to previous findings in northern regions of Baja California and southern California. However, abundances of these species were lower (10-30 individuals/1000 m3), only reaching 20-50% of abundance levels reported off northern Baja California. In the coastal shelf of the Gulf of Ulloa, amphipods were virtually absent during 2002, 2003 and 2006. However, during 2004 and 2005, abundances of P. brevidens increased (54 and 20 ind/1000 m3, respectively). Moreover, during the late summer of 2007, abundances of L. schizogeneios, P. brevidens, Lycaea nasuta, Lycaea pulex, and Simorhynchotus antennarius increased considerably (261, 39, 31, 68, 416 ind/1000 m3, respectively), indicating occasional utilization of the coastal shelf by pelagic amphipods. Changes in gelatinous populations (medusae, siphonophores, ctenophores, doliolids, and salps) paralleled changes in hyperiid populations, with highest abundances in 2005-2008 in the coastal shelf. Significant correlations of 17 amphipod species with gelatinous taxa, which are often used as host organisms by hyperiid amphipods, suggest that gelatinous presence enhanced hyperiid abundance and promoted the progression of hyperiid amphipods onto the coastal shelf during parts of the 2002-2008 period. © 2020 Bertha E.

Movements of scalloped hammerhead sharks (Sphyrna lewini) at Cocos Island, Costa Rica and between oceanic islands in the Eastern Tropical Pacific

Elena Nalesso (2019, [Artículo])

Many species of sharks form aggregations around oceanic islands, yet their levels of residency and their site specificity around these islands may vary. In some cases, the waters around oceanic islands have been designated as marine protected areas, yet the conservation value for threatened shark species will depend greatly on how much time they spend within these protected waters. Eighty-four scalloped hammerhead sharks (Sphyrna lewini Griffith & Smith), were tagged with acoustic transmitters at Cocos Island between 2005–2013. The average residence index, expressed as a proportion of days present in our receiver array at the island over the entire monitoring period, was 0.52±0.31, implying that overall the sharks are strongly associated with the island. Residency was significantly greater at Alcyone, a shallow seamount located 3.6 km offshore from the main island, than at the other sites. Timing of presence at the receiver locations was mostly during daytime hours. Although only a single individual from Cocos was detected on a region-wide array, nine hammerheads tagged at Galapagos and Malpelo travelled to Cocos. The hammerheads tagged at Cocos were more resident than those visiting from elsewhere, suggesting that the Galapagos and Malpelo populations may use Cocos as a navigational waypoint or stopover during seasonal migrations to the coastal Central and South America. Our study demonstrates the importance of oceanic islands for this species, and shows that they may form a network of hotspots in the Eastern Tropical Pacific. © 2019 Nalesso et al.

Effects of geostrophic kinetic energy on the distribution of mesopelagic fish larvae in the southern Gulf of California in summer/fall stratified seasons

FERNANDO CONTRERAS CATALA (2016, [Artículo])

Effects of geostrophic kinetic energy flux on the three-dimensional distribution of fish larvae of mesopelagic species (Vinciguerria lucetia, Diogenichthys laternatus, Benthosema panamense and Triphoturus mexicanus) in the southern Gulf of California during summer and fall seasons of stronger stratification were analyzed. The greatest larval abundance was found at sampling stations in geostrophic kinetic energy-poor areas (<7.5 J/m3), where the distribution of the dominant species tended to be stratified. Larvae of V. lucetia (average abundance of 318 larvae/10m2) and B. panamense (174 larvae/10m2) were mostly located in and above the pycnocline (typically ∼ 40 m depth). In contrast, larvae of D. laternatus (60 larvae/10m2) were mainly located in and below the pycnocline. On the other hand, in sampling stations from geostrophic kinetic energy-rich areas (> 21 J/m3), where mesoscale eddies were present, the larvae of the dominant species had low abundance and were spread more evenly through the water column, in spite of the water column stratification. For example, in a cyclonic eddy, V. lucetia larvae (34 larvae/10m2) extended their distribution to, at least, the limit of sampling 200 m depth below the pycnocline, while D. laternatus larvae (29 larvae/10m2) were found right up to the surface, both probably as a consequence mixing and secondary circulation in the eddy. Results showed that the level of the geostrophic kinetic energy flux affects the abundance and the three-dimensional distribution of mesopelagic fish larvae during the seasons of stronger stratification, indicating that areas with low geostrophic kinetic energy may be advantageous for feeding and development of mesopelagic fish larvae because of greater water column stability. © 2016 Contreras-Catala et al.

Maintenance of Coastal Surface Blooms by Surface Temperature Stratification and Wind Drift

MARY CARMEN RUIZ DE LA TORRE (2013, [Artículo])

Algae blooms are an increasingly recurrent phenomenon of potentially socio-economic impact in coastal waters globally and in the coastal upwelling region off northern Baja California, Mexico. In coastal upwelling areas the diurnal wind pattern is directed towards the coast during the day. We regularly found positive Near Surface Temperature Stratification (NSTS), the resulting density stratification is expected to reduce the frictional coupling of the surface layer from deeper waters and allow for its more efficient wind transport. We propose that the net transport of the top layer of approximately 2.7 kilometers per day towards the coast helps maintain surface blooms of slow growing dinoflagellate such as Lingulodinium polyedrum. We measured: near surface stratification with a free-rising CTD profiler, trajectories of drifter buoys with attached thermographs, wind speed and direction, velocity profiles via an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, Chlorophyll and cell concentration from water samples and vertical migration using sediment traps. The ADCP and drifter data agree and show noticeable current shear within the first meters of the surface where temperature stratification and high cell densities of L. polyedrum were found during the day. Drifters with 1m depth drogue moved towards the shore, whereas drifters at 3 and 5 m depth showed trajectories parallel or away from shore. A small part of the surface population migrated down to the sea floor during night thus reducing horizontal dispersion. The persistent transport of the surface bloom population towards shore should help maintain the bloom in favorable environmental conditions with high nutrients, but also increasing the potential socioeconomic impact of the blooms. The coast wise transport is not limited to blooms but includes all dissolved and particulate constituents in surface waters. © 2013 Ruiz-de la Torre et al.
