Abstract Statistics on internal migration are important for keeping estimates of subnational population numbers up-to-date, as well urban planning, infrastructure development, and impact assessment, among other applications. However, flow statistics typically remain constrained by the logistics infrequent censuses or surveys. The penetration rate mobile phones is now high across globe with rapid recent increases in ownership low-income countries. Analyzing changing spatiotemporal...
The low energy neutrino factory has been proposed as a very sensitive setup for future searches CP violation and matter effects. Here we study how its performance is affected when the experimental specifications of are varied. Most notably, have considered addition 'platinum' nu_{mu} -> nu_{e} channel. We find that, whilst theoretically extra channel provides useful complementary information helps to lift degeneracies, practical usefulness lost considering realistic background levels....
Background Maternal and neonatal health outcomes in low- middle-income countries (LMICs) have improved over the last two decades. However, many pregnant women still deliver at home, which increases risks for both mother child. Community worker programs been broadly employed LMICs to connect antenatal care delivery locations. More recently, employment of digital tools maternal resulted better served as a routine mode data collection. Despite availability rich, patient-level within these...
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the use of mobile operator data to support public policy, although without a universal governance framework for its application. This article describes five principles guide and assist statistical agencies, network operators intermediary service providers, who are actively working on projects using governments in monitoring effectiveness related interventions. These necessity proportionality, professional independence, privacy protection,...
Abstract Telecommunications data are being explored by many countries as a new source of that can be incorporated into their national statistical systems. In particular, “mobile positioning data” increasingly used to study population movements and distributions. However, the legal, ethical, technical complexities working with this type often pose barriers, which prevent from at times when it is most urgently needed. We demonstrate how having robust public–private partnership framework,...
The Daya Bay and RENO experiments have recently observed a non-zero $\theta_{13}$ at more than $5\sigma$ CL. This has important consequences for future neutrino oscillation experiments. We analyze these within the LAGUNA design study which considers seven possible locations European observatory proton decay, neutrino, astroparticle physics. megaton-scale detector would be an ideal target CERN-based beam with baselines ranging from 130 km to 2300 km. perform detailed assess physics reach of...
We present a method for analysing mobile phone call detail records to identify individuals whom we believe be have been internally displaced as result of sudden-onset disaster. model each anonymous individual's movements trajectory piecewise-constant time series signal, assume that disaster-induced displacement is exhibited level shift from an 'normal' location, and then apply step detection algorithm shifts in the signal. In contrast typical methods are used analyse mobility patterns...
BackgroundCommunity health worker (CHW)-led maternal programs have contributed to increased facility-based deliveries and decreased mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. The recent adoption of mobile devices these provides an opportunity for real-time implementation machine learning predictive models identify women most at risk home-based delivery. However, it is possible that falsified data could be entered into the model get a specific prediction result – known as "adversarial attack". goal...
Recent developments on tau detection technologies and the construction of high intensity neutrino beams open possibility a precision search for non-standard {\mu} - {\tau} flavour transition with neutrinos at short distances. The MINSIS Main Injector Non-Standard Interaction Search- is proposal under discussion to realize such measurement. This document contains proceedings workshop which took place 10-11 December 2009 in Madrid discuss both physics reach as well experimental requirements...
We show that a low energy neutrino factory with baseline of 1300 km and muon 4.5 GeV has an excellent physics reach. The results our optimisation studies demonstrate such setup can have remarkable sensitivity to θ13 δ for sin2(2θ13)>10−4, the mass hierarchy sin2(2θ13)>10−3. also illustrate power unique combination golden platinum channels accessible factory. considered both 20 kton totally active scintillating detector 100 liquid argon as possible technologies, finding very good background...
We explore the physics reach of several possible configurations for a Super-Beam experiment in Europe, focusing on possibilities discovering θ13, CP violation leptonic sector and ordering neutrino mass eigenstates. consider three different detector technologies: Water Čerenkov, Liquid Argon Scintillator, seven sites Europe which would be able to host such underground. The distances these from CERN, where beam originated, go 130 km 2300 km. flux is optimized each case as match first...

Community health workers (CHWs) play a crucial role in the last mile delivery of essential services to underserved populations low-income countries. Many nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) provide training and support enable CHWs deliver their communities, with no charge recipients services. This includes monetary compensation for work that perform, which is broken down into series well defined tasks. In this work, we partner NGO D-Tree International design fair scheme tasks performed by...
We study the possibility to perform neutrino oscillation tomography and determine mass hierarchy in kilometer-scale ice Cerenkov detectors by means of theta13-driven matter effects which occur during propagation atmospheric neutrinos deep through Earth. consider ongoing IceCube/DeepCore observatory future planned extensions, such as PINGU detector, has a lower energy threshold. Our simulations include impact marginalization over parameters fully correlated systematic uncertainty on total...
