A SCUBA imaging survey of ultracompact HII regions. The environments of massive star formation

We present a SCUBA submillimetre (450 and 850 μm) survey of the environment of 105 IRAS point sources, selected from the Wood & Churchwell (1989a) and Kurtz et al. (1994) radio ultracompact (UC) Hii region surveys. We detected a total of 155 sub-mm clumps associated with the IRAS point sources and identified three distinct types of object: ultracompact cm-wave sources that are not associated with any sub-mm emission (sub-mm quiet objects), sub-mm clumps that are associated with ultracompact cm-wave sources (radio-loud clumps); and sub-mm clumps that are not associated with any known ultracompact cm-wave sources (radio-quiet clumps). 90% of the sample of IRAS point sources were found to be associated with strong sub-mm emission. We consider the sub-mm colours, morphologies and distance-scaled fluxes of the sample of sub-mm clumps and show that the sub-mm quiet objects are unlikely to represent embedded UC Hii regions unless they are located at large heliocentric distances. Many of the 2.5 arcmin SCUBA fields contain more than one sub-mm clump, with an average number of companions (the companion clump fraction) of 0.90. The clumps are more strongly clustered than other candidate HMPOs and the mean clump surface density exhibits a broken power-law distribution with a break at 3 pc. We demonstrate that the sub-mm and cm-wave fluxes of the majority of radio-loud clumps are in excellent agreement with the standard model of ultracompact Hii regions. We speculate on the nature of the radio-quiet sub-mm clumps and, whilst we do not yet have sufficient data to conclude that they are in a pre-UC Hii region phase, we argue that their characteristics are suggestive of such a stage.
How effective are the regional policies of convergence in the EU

In this paper an attempt is made to examine the impact of the convergence policies on regional development and the economic and social variations inside the EU according to the existing literature. An attempt is also made to look at the outcome of the EU intervention on the administrative and bureaucratic structures in the affected nations. We conclude that despite some advances in administration, monitoring and evaluation, the effect of the convergence policies on growth and efficiency remains restricted.
Candidate re-ranking for SMT-based grammatical error correction

We develop a supervised ranking model to re-rank candidates generated from an SMT-based grammatical error correction (GEC) system. A range of novel features with respect to GEC are investigated and implemented in our re-ranker. We train a rank preference SVM model and demonstrate that this outperforms both Minimum Bayes-Risk and Multi-Engine Machine Translation based re-ranking for the GEC task. Our best system yields a signiﬁcant improvement in I-measure when testing on the publicly available FCE test set (from 2.87% to 9.78%). It also achieves an F 0.5 score of 38.08% on the CoNLL-2014 shared task test set, which is higher than the best original result. The oracle score (upper bound) for the re-ranker achieves over 40% I-measure performance, demonstrating that there is considerable room for improvement in the re-ranking component developed here, such as incorporating features able to capture long-distance dependencies.
An Evo-Devo Approach to Thyroid Hormones in Cerebral and Cerebellar Cortical Development: Etiological Implications for Autism

The morphological alterations of cortical lamination observed in mouse models of developmental hypothyroidism prompted the recognition that these experimental changes resembled the brain lesions of children with autism; this led to recent studies showing that maternal thyroid hormone deficiency increases fourfold the risk of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), offering for the first time the possibility of prevention of some forms of ASD. For ethical reasons, the role of thyroid hormones on brain development is currently studied using animal models, usually mice and rats. Although mammals have in common many basic developmental principles regulating brain development, as well as fundamental basic mechanisms that are controlled by similar metabolic pathway activated genes, there are also important differences. For instance, the rodent cerebral cortex is basically a primary cortex, whereas the primary sensory areas in humans account for a very small surface in the cerebral cortex when compared to the associative and frontal areas that are more extensive. Associative and frontal areas in humans are involved in many neurological disorders, including ASD, attention deficit-hyperactive disorder, and dyslexia, among others. Therefore, an evo-devo approach to neocortical evolution among species is fundamental to understand not only the role of thyroid hormones and environmental thyroid disruptors on evolution, development, and organization of the cerebral cortex in mammals but also their role in neurological diseases associated to thyroid dysfunction.
Does Mindfulness Improve After Heart Coherence Training in Patients With Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain and Healthy Subjects? A Pilot Study

Background: Mindfulness and heart coherence training (HCT) training are applied increasingly in the treatment of patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP). Questionnaires have been developed to assess changes in mindfulness but no gold standard is available. Objective: Explore the relationship between changes in mindfulness scores and changes in heart coherence after 3 sessions of HCT in patients with CMP and in healthy subjects. Research Method/Design: Ten patients with CMP and 15 healthy subjects were trained in self-regulation with the use of HCT following a standardized stress relief program developed by the HeartMath Institute. A heart coherence-score (HC-score) was constructed with scores ranging from 0-100 with higher scores reflecting more heart rate variability (HRV) coherency. Change scores, Spearman correlation coefficients, and Wilcoxon Signed Rank test were calculated to test relationships and differences between HC-score, the Mindfulness Attention and Aware ness Scale (MAAS) and Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ). A new questionnaire was constructed to explore on which mindfulness-related domains patients with CMP report changes after HCT. Results: Increases were present on HC-score in healthy subjects (P<.01) and in patients (P<.01) between baseline and follow-up. Effect sizes on change on the MAAS and FFMQ were low. Weak (r<0.25) and non-significant correlations were observed in change scores between HC-score and MAAS or FFMQ. Patients reported significant favorable differences on 6 mindfulness related domains in the new questionnaire: breathing rhythm, physical awareness, positive or negative emotions, recognition of stressful situations, thoughts, and tendency to actively self-regulate. Conclusions: In this pilot study, mindfulness as assessed by the MAAS and FFMQ does not appear to improve after HCT. HRV coherency, MAAS, and FFMQ measure different constructs and are weakly related. It is of great importance to choose and develop valid measures that reflect patients’ states of mindfulness. Content and face validity of measures of mindfulness may be considered in the light of performance-based measures.
The Skyline of a Probabilistic Relation

In a deterministic relation R, tuple u dominates tuple v if u is no worse than v on all the attributes of interest, and better than v on at least one attribute. This concept is at the heart of skyline queries, that return the set of undominated tuples in R. In this paper, we extend the notion of skyline to probabilistic relations by generalizing to this context the definition of tuple domination. Our approach is parametric in the semantics for linearly ranking probabilistic tuples and, being it based on order-theoretic principles, preserves the three fundamental properties the skyline has in the deterministic case: 1) It equals the union of all top-1 results of monotone scoring functions; 2) it requires no additional parameter; and 3) it is insensitive to actual attribute scales. We then show how domination among probabilistic tuples (or P-domination for short) can be efficiently checked by means of a set of rules. We detail such rules for the cases in which tuples are ranked using either the “expected rank” or the “expected score” semantics, and explain how the approach can be applied to other semantics as well. Since computing the skyline of a probabilistic relation is a time-consuming task, we introduce a family of algorithms for checking P-domination rules in an optimized way. Experiments show that these algorithms can significantly reduce the actual execution times with respect to a naive evaluation.
Specific NFκB subunit activation and kinetics of cytokine induction in adenoviral keratitis

Purpose Corneal inflammation associated with ocular adenoviral infection is caused by leukocytic infiltration of the subepithelial stroma in response to expression of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) by infected corneal cells. We have shown that these two chemokines are activated by the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38 for IL-8, and Jun-terminal kinase (JNK) for MCP-1. It is also well established that transcription of each of these chemokines is tightly controlled by the nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB) transcription factor family. Therefore, we sought to better understand the differential regulation of chemokine expression by NFκB in adenoviral infection of the cornea. Methods Primary keratocytes derived from human donor corneas were treated with signaling inhibitors and small interfering RNA specific to MAPKs, and infected with adenovirus for different time periods before analysis. Activation of specific NFκB subunits was analyzed by western blot, confocal microscopy, electromobility shift assay, and chromatin immunoprecipitation, and chemokine expression was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Upon adenoviral infection, NFκB p65, p50, and cREL subunits translocate to the nucleus. This translocation is blocked by inhibitors of specific MAPK signaling pathways. Confocal microscopy showed that inhibitors of the p38, JNK, and ERK pathways differentially inhibited NFκB nuclear translocation, while PP2, an inhibitor of Src family kinases, completely inhibited NFκB nuclear translocation. Western blot analysis revealed that activation of specific NFκB subunits was time dependent following infection. Chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that binding of NFκB p65 and p50 subunits to the IL-8 promoter upon viral infection was differentially reduced by chemical inhibitors of MAPKs. Electromobility shift assay and luciferase assay analysis revealed that transactivation of IL-8 occurred with binding by the NFκB p65 homodimer or NFκB p65/p50 heterodimer as early as 1 h post infection, whereas MCP-1 expression was dependent upon the NFκB cREL but not the p65 subunit, and occurred 4 h after IL-8 induction. Finally, knockdown of NFκB p65 by short interfering RNA abrogated IL-8 but not MCP-1 expression after adenoviral infection. Conclusion The kinetics of NFκB subunit activation are partly responsible for the observed pattern of acute inflammation in the adenoviral-infected cornea. MAPKs differentially regulate chemokine expression in adenoviral keratitis by differential and time-dependent activation of specific NFκB subunits.
Floral density and the facilitation of pollination – an empirical study

Foraging pollinators can be expected to choose patches with high densities of floral resources. As a result, plants in flower-dense patches may receive higher visitation rates and pollination, hence, the pollination of one plant may be facilitated by the presence of neighbour plants. Facilitation of pollination has been predicted by theoretical models and demonstrated in some empirical studies, all dealing with systems containing only two or very few species. The occurrence of facilitation in species-rich natural habitats remains more or less hypothetical, and recent theoretical models have suggested that narrow ground rules may restrict the occurrence of such facilitation in nature. We studied empirically how pollinator abundance, pollinator activity, and visitation rate responded to flower density in species rich semi-natural grasslands, in which the floral resources were manipulated by regulating the timing of grazing. Pollen limitation of fruit set was studied experimentally in two species, Lotus corniculatus and Primula veris, and the pollination effect on fruit production was compared with direct effects of grazing of reproductive organs. Both pollinator abundance and pollinator activity increased with patch flower density, whereas the visitation rate per flower showed a neutral or competitional response to flower density. Hence, no facilitation of pollination was detected in response to the overall flower density. Some species showed, however, a tendency to autofacilitation, i.e. increased visitation rate as a response to con-specific flower density. The fruit set of two experimental species was not pollen limited in any of the grazing regimes, indicating full pollination independent of visitation rate. Fruit production was, however, strongly affected by grazing of reproductive parts, which by far outweighed indirect effects on plant reproduction such as pollination. Based on the results, we discuss prerequisites of the facilitation of pollination and possible environments in nature in which to expect the phenomenon to occur.
A New Approach towards The Onion Router Network Using An Attack Dependent on Cell-Counting

The onion router (TOR) may be a communication system that permits to cover our identity. Numerous software system below this classes are accessible that permits on line anonymity. It does not enable network surveillance or trafficanalysis tourge tracked however most of those code used equal size cells. during this paper we are analysing a brand new cell-counting attacks against TOR that permits us to spot anonymous communication among user. First of all we want to buy one onion router then attacker will include special signal i.e. cell counting into network traffic. We've developed this technique against TOR and experimental result shows the effectiveness of algorithms and permits detection TOR networks.
Corpus-Based Robotics: A Route Instruction Example

In corpus-based robotics, the primitive functions built into a robot are determined by the functional content of human utterances spoken to the robot. In the example of route instructions treated in this paper, the 15 primitives found include functions such as turn(), cross(), landmark_is_located(), etc. These are natural primitives of human behaviour but complex robot functions, some of which are not normally thought of by roboticists. Primitives must cope robustly with a variety of environmental conditions and require autonomous navigation capabilities based for instance on visual landmark recognition and localisation, navigable space mapping and path planning. Thus, the requirement of human-robot interaction creates specific and demanding functional targets for robot designers. A major obstacle to human-robot communication lies probably in current robots’ perception capabilities. Furthermore, for human-robot communication to match the performance of human-human communication, the robot must also be provided with capabilities of re-interpreting and correcting instructions at execution time. Such a large autonomy raises wider issues of safety and control.
Polynomial Threshold Functions: Structure, Approximation and Pseudorandomness

We study the computational power of polynomial threshold functions, that is, threshold functions of real polynomials over the boolean cube. We provide two new results bounding the computational power of this model. Our first result shows that low-degree polynomial threshold functions cannot approximate any function with many influential variables. We provide a couple of examples where this technique yields tight approximation bounds. Our second result relates to constructing pseudorandom generators fooling low-degree polynomial threshold functions. This problem has received attention recently, where Diakonikolas et al proved that $k$-wise independence suffices to fool linear threshold functions. We prove that any low-degree polynomial threshold function, which can be represented as a function of a small number of linear threshold functions, can also be fooled by $k$-wise independence. We view this as an important step towards fooling general polynomial threshold functions, and we discuss a plausible approach achieving this goal based on our techniques. Our results combine tools from real approximation theory, hyper-contractive inequalities and probabilistic methods. In particular, we develop several new tools in approximation theory which may be of independent interest.
Running head : MEMORY VANTAGE POINT AND AGING 1 Vantage Point and Visual Imagery : Effects on Recall in Younger and Older Adults

The current study explored the influence of priming vantage point at retrieval on the recall of younger and older adults, in addition to the effects of visualization ability on recall. Based on McIsaac and Eich’s (2002) findings of the effects on younger adults’ recall, it was hypothesized that recollections would be more likely to include certain features when retrieved through the field vantage point (FVP) than through the observer vantage point (OVP) and vice-versa. Additionally, it was expected that older adults would recall more detailed memories from the OVP than from the FVP. Finally, it was hypothesized that visualization ability would influence memory vividness and that it would be more influential in older adults than in younger adults. The experiment was conducted across two sessions. In Session 1, participants completed a visual imagery assessment, and memories were created in the laboratory with younger (n = 20; 18-21 years old) and older (n = 18; 63-88 years old) adults through the completion of two activities. In Session 2, participants recalled the activities from either the FVP or the OVP. Participants’ recollections were coded for various memory characteristics, which acted as dependent variables in analyses. A significant interaction effect (p = .003) between age and vantage point was found on the characteristic of psychological state, such that older adults referred to their psychological state in FVP memories more than in OVP memories (p = .002), while younger adults demonstrated no significant difference. Imagery ability significantly predicted several aspects of participants’ subjective recall experience. Overall, the results indicate that retrieval vantage point does not change the content of one’s recollections on most measures for either younger or older adults and that visual mental imagery ability predicts several aspects of one’s recall experience.
Transmission of Demographic Shock Effects from Large to Small

This paper addresses an issue that has been overlooked in the literature on the effects of population ageing: Transmission onto small countries of the economic effects of population ageing, a natural, demographic outcome of the shock that many large industrial countries experienced in the form of a baby boom in the late 1940s and early 1950s. It is argued in the paper that international commodity and capital flows provide channels for the transmission of these effects that include changes in the terms of trade and interest rates in large countries. The issue is considered in the context of possible effects on Turkey of the demographic shock effects transmitted from Europe. The discussion is carried out in reference to the simulation results from an overlapping generations, general equilibrium model parametrised to mimic the current state of four largest members of the EU and Turkey. The simulation exercises lead to the following conclusions: First, changes in the age composition of Turkish population to occur in the course of the country’s own demographic transition will affect the time paths of consumption, savings, investment and output substantially. Secondly, when they are transmitted onto Turkey, the economic effects of baby boomers’ ageing in the EU will magnify the effects of the demographic transition in this country. This is a finding with implications for long term growth prospects of a country, and appears to be relevant to other small countries whose close economic ties with the industrial nations with ageing populations make them vulnerable to the effects of population ageing even if they have relatively young populations now.
Hypoxia in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Hypoxia is a common feature in most of the solid tumors including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Hypoxia reflects the imbalance between oxygen consumption by the rapidly proliferating cancer cells and the insufficient oxygen delivery due to poor vascularization and blood supply. The hypoxic microenvironment in the HNSCC contributes to the development of aggressive carcinoma phenotype with high metastatic rate, resistance to therapeutic agents, and higher tumor recurrence rates, leading to low therapeutic efficiency and poor outcome. To overcome the therapeutic resistance due to hypoxia and improving the prognosis of the HNSCC patients, many approaches have been examined in laboratory studies and clinical trials. In this short paper, we discuss the mechanisms involved in the resistance of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in hypoxic condition. We also exploit the molecular mechanisms employed by the HNSCC cells to adapt the hypoxic condition and their tumorigenic role in head and neck, as well as the strategies to overcome hypoxia-induced therapeutic resistance.
