Knowledge Graph Embedding for Link Prediction

Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have found many applications in industrial and in academic settings, which in turn, have motivated considerable research efforts towards large-scale information extraction from a variety of sources. Despite such efforts, it is well known that even the largest KGs suffer from incompleteness; Link Prediction (LP) techniques address this issue by identifying missing facts among entities already in the KG. Among the recent LP techniques, those based on KG embeddings have achieved very promising performance in some benchmarks. Despite the fast-growing literature on the subject, insufficient attention has been paid to the effect of the design choices in those methods. Moreover, the standard practice in this area is to report accuracy by aggregating over a large number of test facts in which some entities are vastly more represented than others; this allows LP methods to exhibit good results by just attending to structural properties that include such entities, while ignoring the remaining majority of the KG. This analysis provides a comprehensive comparison of embedding-based LP methods, extending the dimensions of analysis beyond what is commonly available in the literature. We experimentally compare the effectiveness and efficiency of 18 state-of-the-art methods, consider a rule-based baseline, and report detailed analysis over the most popular benchmarks in the literature.
Extended Abstracts Archives in Food and Nutrition

Milk and dairy products are important for healthy life (Lejeune and Rajala-Schultz, 2009) and can provide good nutritive values in every sense (Food and Drug Administration, 2012). Milk products are widely consumed across the world following the rapidly growing global markets. However, on the other hand, milk can habour microorganisms including the bacteria that can be harmful to the consumers. The occurrence of milk-borne diseases can increase with high consumption of milk, particularly when appropriate hygienic measures are not taken (Singh and Prakash, 2008).
Between decay and repair: Embodied experiences of infrastructure's materiality

This special issue bridges human geography, anthropology and political ecology to understand infrastructure in between conditions of decay and repair, and how embodied experiences of infrastructure intersect with processes of socio-spatial transformation. Our focus on decay and repair builds on literature that understands infrastructure as material processes articulated through social and affective dimensions, with implications for infrastructural access and broader political claims (Anand, 2015; Barnes, 2017; Chalfin, 2019; Fredericks, 2018; Lemanski, 2020; Schwenkel, 2015; von Schnitzler, 2013). We seek to further develop insight into and connect the multiple registers of discourse, materiality, labor and power geometries that determine when, and in what instances, infrastructures are unmade and remade. Decay and repair index the unpredictable socio-ecological relations that are created and animated by infrastructure, and how such relationships are further challenged and sustained by expectations of and capacities for maintenance. Though decay and repair are framed as a binary, we seek to capture the fluctuation between the two, and what happens in between. The collection contributes to recent scholarship on the everyday experiences of infrastructure among ordinary people (Anand et al., 2018; Graham and McFarlane, 2015; McFarlane and Silver, 2017; Simone, 2004), by specifically foregrounding political
The Effect of Interleukin-10 And Its Relationship with The Level of White Blood Cells in Women Spontaneous Miscarriage Undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) technique

This study was conducted on 84 samples of women subject to the ICSI program . Blood sample was taken tomeasure WBC count , Interleukin-10 and ? -hCG levels . Groups were divided based on the ? -hCG level totwo groups (Pregnant Women Group - Pregnancy Failure Group) and the total of pregnant women dividedinto (Pregnancy Group and spontaneous miscarriage) . The results of the current research showed a significant increase in the level ? -hCG and that the increasein the level of this hormone is evidence of the presence of high success rates for pregnancy in women whoperformed operations IVF, where the success rate at the beginning of the matter reached 61.9%, after whichit decreased to 33.3% after the first three months due to the occurrence of spontaneous miscarriage ofpregnant women due to various immunological and physiological reasons, as well as a positive correlationbetween the level of ? -hCG and other parameters within the study (Interleukin-10 -WBC). The results of the current research also showed a significant difference between the group (pregnancyfailure) and the group (spontaneous miscarriage) compared with the control group (continued pregnancy)in relation to the level of Interleukin-10, Also, The results of the current research showed a significantdifference between the group (pregnancy failure) and the group (spontaneous miscarriage) compared withthe control group (continuation of pregnancy) in relation to the level of WBC, and the present study found apositive relationship between the level of Interleukin-10 and WBC
EFL STUDENTS’ ENGAGEMENT DURING INTERACTIVE READ ALOUD

This study explores EFL students’ engagement during interactive read-aloud activity. Students’ engagement was observed in two meetings (Mean= 70 minutes). The subject of this research was the 10 th grade of high school students. The data was taken from the teacher’s field notes and the students’ essay (n= 32). The teacher’s field notes were used as a tool to see how interactive read aloud was applied; while students’ essays were used to gather the students’ writing performance and language functions. The result shows that in behavioural engagement the students were very much engaged during the classroom activity. As in cognitive engagement, it could be seen that the students used to mix languages in delivering their idea in spoken, while in writing, most of the students had excellent ability to elaborate their idea. Students showed their affective engagement through their excitement and eagerness while listening and discussing story book during interactive read-aloud.
Extended interval BNT162b2 vaccination enhances peak antibody generation in older people

Abstract Objectives: To assess the relative immunogenicity of standard or extended interval BNT162b2 vaccination. Design: Population based cohort study comparing immune responses 2 weeks after the second vaccine, with appropriate time-matched samples in participants who received standard or extended interval double vaccination. Setting: Primary care networks, Birmingham, UK. December 2020 to April 2021. Participants: 175 people aged over 80 years of age. All donors received the BNT162b2 Pfizer/BioNTech vaccination and were vaccinated with either a standard 3 week interval between doses or an extended interval schedule. Main outcome measures: Peak quantitative spike-specific antibody and cellular immune responses. Results: In donors without evidence of previous infection the peak antibody response was 3.5-fold higher in donors who had undergone delayed interval vaccination. Cellular immune responses were 3.6-fold lower. Conclusion: Peak antibody responses after the second BNT162b2 vaccine are markedly enhanced in older people when this is delayed to 12 weeks although cellular responses are lower. Extended interval vaccination may therefore offer the potential to enhance and extend humoral immunity. Further follow up is now required to assess long term immunity and clinical protection.
Therapeutic Anticoagulation in Non-Critically Ill Patients with Covid-19

Background Thrombo-inflammation may contribute to morbidity and mortality in Covid-19. We hypothesized that therapeutic-dose anticoagulation may improve outcomes in non-critically ill patients hospitalized for Covid-19. Methods In an open-label adaptive multiplatform randomized controlled trial, non-critically ill patients hospitalized for Covid-19, defined by the absence of critical care-level organ support at enrollment, were randomized to a pragmatic strategy of therapeutic-dose anticoagulation with heparin or usual care pharmacological thromboprophylaxis. The primary outcome combined survival to hospital discharge and days free of organ support through 21 days, which was evaluated with Bayesian statistical models according to baseline D-dimer. Results The trial was stopped when prespecified criteria for superiority were met for therapeutic-dose anticoagulation in groups defined by high ([≥]2-fold elevated) and low (<2-fold elevated) D-dimer. Among 2219 participants in the final analysis, the probability that therapeutic anticoagulation increased organ support-free days compared to thromboprophylaxis was 99.0% (adjusted odds ratio 1.29, 95% credible interval 1.04 to 1.61). The adjusted absolute increase in survival to hospital discharge without organ support with therapeutic-dose anticoagulation was 4.6% (95% credible interval 0.7 to 8.1). In the primary adaptive stopping groups, the final probabilities of superiority for therapeutic anticoagulation were 97.3% in the high D-dimer group and 92.9% in the low D-dimer group. Major bleeding occurred in 1.9% and 0.9% of participants randomized to therapeutic anticoagulation and thromboprophylaxis, respectively. Conclusions In non-critically ill patients with Covid-19, an initial strategy of therapeutic-dose anticoagulation with heparin increases the probability of survival to hospital discharge with reduced use of organ support.
Public policies and the art of catching up: matching the historical evidence with a multicountry agent-based model

In this article, we study the effects of industrial policies on international convergence using a multicountry agent-based model which builds upon Dosi et al. (2019b, J. Econ. Dyn. Control, 101, 101–129). The model features a group of microfounded economies, with evolving industries, populated by heterogeneous firms that compete in international markets. In each country, technological change is driven by firms’ activities of search and innovation, while aggregate demand formation and distribution follow Keynesian dynamics. Interactions among countries take place via trade flows and international technological imitation. We employ the model to assess the different strategies that laggard countries can adopt to catch up with leaders: market-friendly policies; industrial policies targeting the development of firms’ capabilities and R&D investments, as well as trade restrictions for infant industry protection; protectionist policies focusing on tariffs only. We find that markets cannot do the magic: in absence of government interventions, laggards will continue to fall behind. On the contrary, industrial policies can successfully drive international convergence among leaders and laggards, while protectionism alone is not sufficient to support catching up and countries get stuck in a sort of middle-income trap. Finally, in a global trade war, where developed economies impose retaliatory tariffs, both laggards and leaders are worse off and world productivity growth slows down.
The Effect of Guilt on Post-Purchase Regret: Attitudes and Repurchase Intentions Towards Smoking

The aim of the study is to analyze the effect of smokers’ guilt on regret and the effect of regret on attitudes and repurchase intention towards tobacco smoking. In addition, it is aimed to determine whether attitudes have a mediating effect on the relationship between regret and repurchase intention towards smoking. Face-to-face survey is conducted to collect data with 429 tobacco smokers in Izmir-Turkey by judgment-sampling method. The findings showed that the post-purchase guilt felt by consumers in terms of health, financial and moral guilt resulted in a feeling of regret. Regret was also found to affect repurchase intention due to the mediating effect of attitudes towards smoking. Another finding also displays that, despite the sample of consumers’ represent negative attitudes, they could still exhibit repurchase behavior towards tobacco smoking. The contribution of this study is to investigate guilt and regret simultaneously, to reveal their effects on attitudes and, repurchasing intention towards smoking within the context of social marketing.
Bacteriological investigation of meat sold in Ojo, Lagos, Nigeria

Meat (beef) is one of the most widely consumed food products which is remarkably known for its high protein content, vitamins and desirable taste. Meat is consumed by all and sundry. However, the intrinsic properties of meat make it highly susceptible to changes usually brought about by an array of physical, chemical and biochemical attributes. Several bacterial species have been implicated in the spoilage of meat and it provides a good source of nutrients. One kilogram of meat samples purchased from ten retail points in different markets namely Okoko, Ojo, Iyana-Iba, Igbo-Elerin, Ajangbadi, Ikotun, Obadore, Akesan, Alaba and Volkswagen markets were investigated for microorganisms by standard methods. The meat samples were obtained in duplicates and cultured on MacConkey agar, Mannitol salt agar and nutrient agar. They were divided into two batches, the first batch was stored at the refrigerated temperature (4 °C) while the second batch was at ambient temperature 27°C±2 °C for 24 hours. The meat samples were enumerated bacteriologically using blender method. Ten grams of each sample was blended and introduced into buffered peptone water, homogenized and pre-incubated for 1 h. Serial dilution was carried out and 0.1 ml of serially diluted samples inoculated into the agar. Various bacterial species were isolated, identified culturally, morphologically and biochemically. For ambient temperature stored meat, the total viable count ranged from 1.3 x 104 cfu/g to 2.3 x 106 while refrigerated samples had counts which ranged from 1.3 x 104 cfu/g to 7 x 105 cfu/g. In the unrefrigerated samples, total staphylococcal counts and total Enterobacteriaceae counts ranged from 1.3 x 103 cfu/g to 2.66 x 104 cfu/g and 1.2 x IO3 to 2.3 x 104 cfu/g respectively. Bacteria recovered include Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus spp. , Proteus spp. , Micrococcus spp. , Enterobacter spp. , Leuconostoc spp. , Klebsiella spp. and Pseudomonas spp. , most of which are potentially spoilage bacteria as well as opportunistic pathogens. Several bacterial species isolated from refrigerated and unrefrigerated samples were similar, but the refrigerated meat appear to be safer as they had lower microbial load. Meat constitutes a risk factor which is minimized by careful handling, high personal hygiene and massive awareness campaign which may likely be heightened by consumption of raw or improperly cooked meat.
Making Heads or Tails of it: A Competition–Compensation Account of Morphological Deficits in Language Impairment

Children with developmental language disorder (DLD) regularly use the base form of verbs (e.g., dance) instead of inflected forms (e.g., danced). We propose an account of this behavior in which children with DLD have difficulty processing novel inflected verbs in their input. This leads the inflected form to face stronger competition from alternatives. Competition is resolved by the production of a more accessible alternative with high semantic overlap with the inflected form: in English, the bare form. We test our account computationally by training a nonparametric Bayesian model that infers the productivity of the inflectional suffix (-ed). We systematically vary the number of novel types of inflected verbs in the input to simulate the input as processed by children with and without DLD. Modeling results are consistent with our hypothesis, suggesting that children’s inconsistent use of inflectional morphemes could stem from inferences they make on the basis of impoverished data.
Reversing the Resource Curse: Foreign Corruption Regulation and Economic Development

We examine whether foreign corruption regulation reduces corruption and increases the local economic benefits of resource extraction. After a mid-2000s increase in enforcement of the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), economic activity (measured by nighttime luminosity) increases by 14% (3%) in African communities within a 10- (25-) kilometer radius of resource extraction facilities whose owners are subject to the FCPA. Local perceptions of corruption decline by 8%. Consistent with changes in existing extraction firms’ business practices contributing to the increase in development, the association between resource production, instrumented by world commodity prices, and local economic activity increases by 40%.
Taking Clinical Legal Education Online: Songs of Innocence and Experience

In common with the wider higher education sector, clinical legal education practitioners are facing the challenge of how to adapt their teaching practices to accommodate the restrictions imposed by governmental responses to the Covid-19 pandemic. Facilitating distance learning via online technologies has unsurprisingly become an area of increasing interest in the hope that it may offer a potential solution to the problem of how to continue teaching undergraduates in a socially distanced environment.This paper seeks to provide clinical legal education practitioners with evidence-based insights into the challenges and opportunities afforded by using digital technologies to deliver clinical legal education. It adopts a case study approach by reflecting on the Open Justice Centre’s four-year experience of experimenting with online technologies to provide meaningful and socially useful legal pro bono projects for students studying a credit bearing undergraduate law module. It will analyse how a number of different types of pro bono activity were translated into an online environment, identify common obstacles and posit possible solutions. In doing so, this paper aims to provide a timely contribution to the literature on clinical legal education and offer a means to support colleagues in law schools in the UK and internationally, who are grappling with the challenges presented by taking clinical legal education online.
The affect of investor sentiment on the return and risk of financial assets (A comparative analytical study)

The study deals with the impact of investor emotion with two Stock markets in Middle East, which are the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) and the Iraqi financial market. The research covered three sectors for each market (banking sector, industry sector, telecommunications sector) using financial variables (trading volume, market value, turnover rate) for the period from 2013-2018 for monthly data. The results showed that investor emotion has an of importance impact on returns and varies in intensity across the stock market and according to the available information and the type of investors. As the descriptive analysis of the markets was explained and showed the dominance of the Saudi market, the trends were measured for each sector using the multiple regression equation for the three indicators, and there was a variation in the impact of investor sentiments from one market to another. As the study showed the predominance of negative sentiment in the Iraqi stock market and positive sentiment in the Saudi financial market. The amount of risk (beta) was shown by using the simple regression equation between sector returns and total rate returns, and the solution showed a huge risk in the Saudi market (Tadawul) as well as the lowest risk Iraqi financial market.
Fracture attribute scaling and connectivity in the Devonian Orcadian Basin with implications for geologically equivalent sub-surface fractured reservoirs

Abstract. Fracture attribute scaling and connectivity datasets from analogue systems are widely used to inform sub-surface fractured reservoir models in a range of geological settings. However, significant uncertainties are associated with the determination of reliable scaling parameters in surface outcrops. This has limited our ability to upscale key parameters that control fluid flow at reservoir to basin scales. In this study, we present nine 1D-transect (scanline) fault and fracture attribute datasets from Middle Devonian sandstones in Caithness (Scotland) that are used as an onshore analogue for nearby sub-surface reservoirs such as the Clair field, west of Shetland. By taking account of truncation and censoring effects in individual datasets, our multiscale analysis shows a preference for power-law scaling of fracture length over 8 orders of magnitude (10−4 to 104 m) and kinematic aperture over 4 orders of magnitude (10−6 to 10−2 m). Our assessment of the spatial organization (clustering and topology) provides a new basis for up-scaling fracture attributes collected in outcrop- to regional-scale analogues. We show how these relationships may inform knowledge of geologically equivalent sub-surface fractured reservoirs.
General causality orientations in self-determination theory: Meta-analysis and test of a process model

Causality orientations theory, a key sub-theory of self-determination theory, identifies three distinct causality orientations: autonomy, control, and impersonal orientation. The theory proposes generalized effects of the orientations on motivation and behavior. We meta-analyzed studies (k = 83) testing relations between causality orientations, forms of motivation from self-determination theory, and behavior. Pooled data were used to test a process model in which autonomous and controlled forms of motivation mediated relations between causality orientations and behavior. Results revealed that autonomy and control orientations were positively correlated with autonomous and controlled forms of motivation, respectively. Impersonal orientation was correlated negatively with autonomy orientation and autonomous forms of motivation, and positively with control orientation and controlled forms of motivation. Process model tests revealed total effects of autonomy orientation on behavior, comprising direct and indirect effects through autonomous motivation, and a positive direct effect of control orientation on behavior and a negative indirect effect through controlled motivation, resulting in a zero total effect. Analysis of age, gender, behavior type, study design, and study quality revealed few moderator effects on model relations. Findings support effects of autonomy orientation on motivation and behavior, and the processes involved, and identify constructs that could be targeted, or circumvented, in behavioral interventions.
Subsidizing unit donations: matches, rebates, and discounts compared

An influential result in the literature on charitable giving is that matching subsidies dominate rebate subsidies in raising funds. We investigate whether this result extends to “unit donation” schemes, a popular alternative form of soliciting donations. There, the donors’ choices are over the number of units of a charitable good to fund at a given unit price, rather than the amount of money to give. Comparing matches and rebates as well as simple discounts on the unit price, we find no evidence of dominance in our online experiment: the three subsidy types are equally effective overall. At a more disaggregated level, rebates lead to a higher likelihood of giving, while matching and discount subsidies lead to larger donations by donors. This suggests that charities using a unit donation scheme enjoy additional degrees of freedom in choosing a subsidy type. Rebates merit additional consideration if the primary goal is to attract donors.
