"The Sacred Band [of Thebes], we are told, was first formed by Gorgidas, of 300 chosen men, to whom the city furnished exercise and maintenance and who encamped in the Kadmeia. But some say that this band was composed of lovers and beloved." 🌈

Red-figure vase painting of Achilles, depicted as a beardless young man, bandaging Patroclus, who is depicted as a mature bearded man. Both are still in full armour, wearing helmet, cuirass (to protect the torso) and pteryges, the "leather skirt" so iconic in Greek armour. Patroclus is sitting with spread legs, exposing his flaccid penis, giving the scene an erotic element.

Marcel Knöchelmann: #publications

The Meanings of a Publication in the Humanities
Abstract A publication is meaningful in manifold ways. It is more than text and object, whether digital or physical. A writer, for example, sees a book as a great achievement within a tradition of thought. The corresponding reader finds in the same publication a hermeneutic device. For public discourse, the latest bestselling crossover book provides handy information to special interest readers. To philistine management, a publication is formal authorship in a research assessment exercise. And …

Personalized Exercise Recommendation with Semantically-Grounded Knowledge Tracing
We introduce ExRec, a general framework for personalized exercise recommendation with semantically-grounded knowledge tracing. Our method builds on the observation that existing exercise recommendation approaches simulate student performance via knowledge tracing (KT) but they often overlook two key aspects: (a) the semantic content of questions and (b) the sequential, structured progression of student learning. To address this, our ExRec presents an end-to-end pipeline, from annotating the KCs…

Second-order legal relations generally concern the intentional, volitional acts of legal actors exercising legal powers to change first-order laws or legal relations.

We examined CRC at high altitude in two states, rest and post-exercise recovery, and found significant differences (p < 0.05). Quantitative analysis revealed that recovery involved more frequent yet less stable episodes of synchronization between respiration and pulse. Furthermore, we explor…

Extending the Affirmative Action Problem: mixing numbers and integrated colorings of graphs
Consider a graph whose vertices are colored in one of two colors, say black or white. A white vertex is called integrated if it has at least as many black neighbors as white neighbors, and similarly for a black vertex. The coloring as a whole is integrated if every vertex is integrated. A classic exercise in graph theory, known as the Affirmative Action Problem, is to prove that every finite simple graph admits an integrated coloring. The solution can be neatly summarized with the one-liner: "m…

Frame-Level Real-Time Assessment of Stroke Rehabilitation Exercises from Video-Level Labeled Data: Task-Specific vs. Foundation Models
The growing demands of stroke rehabilitation have increased the need for solutions to support autonomous exercising. Virtual coaches can provide real-time exercise feedback from video data, helping patients improve motor function and keep engagement. However, training real-time motion analysis systems demands frame-level annotations, which are time-consuming and costly to obtain. In this work, we present a framework that learns to classify individual frames from video-level annotations for real…

Recently it was shown that the scaling dimension of the operator $ϕ^n$ in scale-invariant $d=3$ theory may be computed semiclassically, and this was verified to leading order (two loops) in perturbation theory at leading and subleading $n$. Here we extend this verification to six loops, once again at leading and subleading $n$. We then perform a similar exercise for a theory with a multiplet of real scalars and an $O(N)$ invariant hexic interaction. We also investigate the strong-coupling regi…

Estimating Visceral Adiposity from Wrist-Worn Accelerometry
Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is a key marker of both metabolic health and habitual physical activity (PA). Excess VAT is highly correlated with type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. The mechanistic basis for this pathophysiology relates to overloading the liver with fatty acids. VAT is also a highly labile fat depot, with increased turnover stimulated by catecholamines during exercise. VAT can be measured with sophisticated imaging technologies, but can also be inferred directly from PA. We …

Ramanujan, Landau and Casimir, divergent series: a physicist point of view
It is a popular paradoxical exercise to show that the infinite sum of positive integer numbers is equal to -1/12, sometimes called the Ramanujan sum. Here we propose a qualitative approach, much like that of a physicist, to show how the value -1/12 can make sense and, in fact, appears in certain physical quantities where this type of summation is involved. At the light of two physical examples, taken respectively from condensed matter -- the Landau diamagnetism -- and quantum electrodynamics --…
