Comprehensive Two dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC) plays a central role into the elucidation of complex samples. The automation of the identification of peak areas is of prime interest to obtain a fast and repeatable analysis of chromatograms. To determine the concentration of compounds or pseudo-compounds, templates of blobs are defined and superimposed on a reference chromatogram. The templates then need to be modified when different chromatograms are recorded. In this study, we present a chromatogram and template alignment method based on peak registration called BARCHAN. Peaks are identified using a robust mathematical morphology tool. The alignment is performed by a probabilistic estimation of a rigid transformation along the first dimension, and a non-rigid transformation in the second dimension, taking into account noise, outliers and missing peaks in a fully automated way. Resulting aligned chromatograms and masks are presented on two datasets. The proposed algorithm proves to be fast and reliable. It significantly reduces the time to results for GCxGC analysis.

Practical face recognition has been studied in the past decades, but still remains an open challenge. Current prevailing approaches have already achieved substantial breakthroughs in recognition accuracy. However, their performance usually drops dram atically if face samples are severely misaligned. To address this problem, we propose a highly efficient misalignment-robust locality-constrained representation (MRLR) algorithm for practical real-time face recognition. Specifically, the locality constraint that activates the most correlated atoms and suppresses the uncorrelated ones, is applied to construct the dictionary for face alignment. Then we simultaneously align the warped face and update the locality-constrained dictionary, eventually obtaining the final alignment. Moreover, we make use of the block structure to accelerate the derived analytical solution. Experimental results on public data sets show that MRLR significantly outperforms several state-of-the-art approaches in terms of efficiency and scalability with even better performance.
In a recent paper [textit{M. Cristelli, A. Zaccaria and L. Pietronero, Phys. Rev. E 85, 066108 (2012)}], Cristelli textit{et al.} analysed relation between skewness and kurtosis for complex dynamical systems and identified two power-law regimes of no n-Gaussianity, one of which scales with an exponent of 2 and the other is with $4/3$. Finally the authors concluded that the observed relation is a universal fact in complex dynamical systems. Here, we test the proposed universal relation between skewness and kurtosis with large number of synthetic data and show that in fact it is not universal and originates only due to the small number of data points in the data sets considered. The proposed relation is tested using two different non-Gaussian distributions, namely $q$-Gaussian and Levy distributions. We clearly show that this relation disappears for sufficiently large data sets provided that the second moment of the distribution is finite. We find that, contrary to the claims of Cristelli textit{et al.} regarding a power-law scaling regime, kurtosis saturates to a single value, which is of course different from the Gaussian case ($K=3$), as the number of data is increased. On the other hand, if the second moment of the distribution is infinite, then the kurtosis seems to never converge to a single value. The converged kurtosis value for the finite second moment distributions and the number of data points needed to reach this value depend on the deviation of the original distribution from the Gaussian case. We also argue that the use of kurtosis to compare distributions to decide which one deviates from the Gaussian more can lead to incorrect results even for finite second moment distributions for small data sets, whereas it is totally misleading for infinite second moment distributions where the difference depends on $N$ for all finite $N$.

We introduce the MINERvA Analysis Toolkit (MAT), a utility for centralizing the handling of systematic uncertainties in HEP analyses. The fundamental utilities of the toolkit are the MnvHnD, a powerful histogram container class, and the systematic Un iverse classes, which provide a modular implementation of the many universe error analysis approach. These products can be used stand-alone or as part of a complete error analysis prescription. They support the propagation of systematic uncertainty through all stages of analysis, and provide flexibility for an arbitrary level of user customization. This extensible solution to error analysis enables the standardization of systematic uncertainty definitions across an experiment and a transparent user interface to lower the barrier to entry for new analyzers.

Grain is a data analysis framework developed to be used with the novel Total Data Readout data acquisition system. In Total Data Readout all the electronics channels are read out asynchronously in singles mode and each data item is timestamped. Event building and analysis has to be done entirely in the software post-processing the data stream. A flexible and efficient event parser and the accompanying software framework have been written entirely in Java. The design and implementation of the software are discussed along with experiences gained in running real-life experiments.
Orchestrating parametric fitting of multicomponent spectra at scale is an essential yet underappreciated task in high-throughput quantification of materials and chemical composition. To automate the annotation process for spectroscopic and diffractio n data collected in counts of hundreds to thousands, we present a systematic approach compatible with high-performance computing infrastructures using the MapReduce model and task-based parallelization. We implement the approach in software and demonstrate linear computational scaling with respect to spectral components using multidimensional experimental materials characterization datasets from photoemission spectroscopy and powder electron diffraction as benchmarks. Our approach enables efficient generation of high-quality data annotation and online spectral analysis and is applicable to a variety of analytical techniques in materials science and chemistry as a building block for closed-loop experimental systems.
