By the result of our module The replacement number at this website we should have Rst t ≈ 1.5 > 1 for sufficiently small positive t. Thus we would expect to see a significant proportion of major outbreaks in addition to some minor ones. You may want to run a few exploratory simulations to check whether this is what you will see in the World window and the Disease Prevalence plot.
Impulsiveness and Metarepresentative Functions of Borderline Patients withPsychopathic Conducts: An Experimental Study with the Rorschach Test

The Borderline Personality Disorder (BDP) is defined as “a pervasive pattern of instability which affects regulation, impulse control, interpersonal relationships, and self-image”. Bateman model & Fonagy model, being a connection between the psychoanalytic tradition – especially the attachment theories and the cognitive approach, identifies the inability to mentalize as a fundamental problem of borderline patients, which is meant as “the capacity to make sense of ourselves and others, implicitly and explicitly, in terms of subjective states and mental processes”. Due to the considerable number of empirical evidence on the connection between mentalization and attachment, the authors defined the obstacles related to interpersonal relationships, which represent the distinctive feature of patients with BDP and which give rise to their typical impulsive behaviours. Such behaviours can be selfinflicted by means of self-destructive acts and attempted suicide and other-directed by means of aggressiveness and violence.This study aims to verify the differences related to impulsiveness and behavioural disorder, which can emerge from the comparison between an experimental group of borderline patients and a control group of non-patients. The experimental plan considered the administration of the Rorschach test and MMPI-2. The scoring of the Rorschach test, conducted according to the Comprehensive System has showed that patients with BDP proved to be clearly more impulsive than normal individuals and less capable to control their responsiveness on the personality level. Furthermore they have fewer abilities to plan and modulate the emotional response than the control group. In this study the Rorschach test had well identified the emotional dysregulation as a meta-representative distinguishing deficit, by pointing out the BDP patients who could more probably act impulsively by means of aggressive behaviours.
How do organisational and cognitive distances shape firms’ interactions with universities and public research institutes?

This paper examines how the institutional set-up of public research organisations (PROs) affects how firms are able to utilise direct interaction with publicly employed researchers. We argue that the role that PRO interaction has to play in the firm’s innovation processes depend on the organisational and cognitive distances between the firm and the PRO. In particular, this paper empirically explores how Swedish engineering firms assess the value of R&D partnerships with universities and research institutes. Our theoretical discussion of organizational distance suggests that managers should perceive institute contacts to be more strongly associated with short-term R&D projects than university contacts. This hypothesis cannot be verified. Following from our discussion of cognitive distance, we find that firms with advanced R&D capabilities obtain differential benefits. Their interaction with universities provides impulses for innovation and offers opportunities to learn to a greater extent than contacts with public research institutes. However, firms with less advanced R&D capabilities perceive no significant differences between university and institute interaction. Thus, both organizational and cognitive distance affect firms’ interactions with PROs, and our results have implications for the current push in Europe to reform universities and institutes.
L 2 Boosting in Kernel Regression 1

In this paper, we investigate the theoretical and empirical properties of L2 boosting with kernel regression estimates as weak learners. We show that each step of L2 boosting reduces the bias of the estimate by two orders of magnitude, while it does not deteriorate the order of the variance. We illustrate the theoretical findings by some simulated examples. Also, we demonstrate that L2 boosting is superior to the use of higher-order kernels which is a well-known method of reducing the bias of the kernel estimate. Some key words: Kernel regression, Nadaraya-Watson smoother, bias reduction, boosting, twicing

Microsensor Integration Into Systems-on-Chip Micromachining

| Sensing systems-on-chip (SSoCs), combining micromachined sensing structures and microelectronic building blocks on a single chip, are reviewed. While single-chip pressure and inertial sensing systems have been commercially available for more than a decade, the recent expansion of SSoC into new application areas, ranging from chemical and biochemical sensing to atomic force microscopy, demonstrates the full potential of this microsensor integration approach. Available fabrication processes for integrated sensing systems are summarized, categorizing them into pre-, intra-, and postCMOS approaches depending on the way the micromachining module is merged with the integrated circuit (IC) technology. Examples of SSoCs are presented to highlight the different integration options, ranging from cointegration of micromachined sensors with purely analog signal chains to microsystems with cointegrated digital signal processors and digital
NGINEERING FOR T AGGING S OFTWARE

Tagging is integrated into web application to ease maintenance of large amount of information stored in a web application. With no mention of requirement specification or design document for tagging software, academically or otherwise, integrating tagging software in a web application is a tedious task. In this paper, a framework has been created for integration of tagging software in a web application. The framework follows the software development life cycle paradigms and is to be used during it different stages. The requirement component of framework presents a weighted requirement checklist that aids the user in deciding requirement for the tagging software in a web application, from among popular ones. The design component facilitates the developer in understanding the design of existing tagging software, modifying it or developing a new one. Also, the framework helps in verification and validation of tagging software integrated in a web application.

9 Traceability of Origin and Authenticity of Olive Oil Zohreh Rabiei

Olive (Olea europaea L.) is one of the oldest agricultural tree crops worldwide and is an important source of oil with beneficial properties for human health. Olive oil is produced solely from the fruit of the olive tree (Olea europaea L.) and differs from most of the other vegetable oils in the method of extraction, allowing it to be consumed in crude form, hence conserving its vitamins and other natural healthy high-value compounds.
Assessment of Mathematics Education in China

According to National Research Council [NRC] (NRC, 1993), the effective assessment should include three components: Involving Significant Mathematics, Enhancing Mathematics Learning and Supporting Good Instructional Practice, and Supporting Every Student’s Opportunity to Learn Important Mathematics. This article addresses Chinese mathematics assessment, so that readers reflect on what type and content of Chinese mathematics assessment is. The main assessment types of Chinese mathematics education include school work-based assessment, selection-aimed promotion assessment and competition-based assistant assessment. School work-based assessment includes routine assessment, period assessment and concluding assessment. These assessments mainly take the forms of closed book tests and closed book examinations.

Disability, gender, and the British labour market

Using UK LFS data, we examine the impact of disability on labour market outcomes by gender since the Disability Discrimination Act. Substantial differences in employment incidence and earnings continue to exist, especially for those with mental health problems. Distinguishing between work-limiting and non-work-limiting disability, the unobserved productivity effect of disability can be separated from discrimination. Limited evidence of wage discrimination against the disabled exists, but the 'penalty' for work-limiting disability, while falling for men, has increased for women. The improvement for disabled males is largely 'unexplained', possibly reflecting the impact of the legislation; this is not the case for females. Copyright 2006, Oxford University Press.
Coreference resolution in clinical discharge summaries, progress notes, surgical and pathology reports: a unified lexical approach

We developed a lexical rule-based system that uses a unified approach to resolving coreference across a wide variety of clinical records comprising discharge summaries, progress notes, pathology, radiology and surgical reports from two corpora (Ontology Development and Information Extraction (ODIE) and i2b2/VA) provided for the fifth i2b2/VA shared task. Taking the unweighted mean between 4 coreference metrics, validation of the system against the i2b2/VA corpus attained an overall F-score of 87.7% across all mention classes, with a maximum of 93.1% for coreference of persons, and a minimum of 77.2% for coreference of tests. For the ODIE corpus the overall F-score across all mention classes was 79.4%, with a maximum of 82.0% for coreference of persons and a minimum of 13.1% for coreference of diagnostic reagents. For the ODIE corpus our results are comparable to the mean reported inter-annotator agreement with the gold standard. We discuss the four categories of errors we identified, and how these might be addressed. The system uses a number of reusable modules and techniques that may be of benefit to the research community.
Magnetic dipole moments of 58Cu and 59Cu by in-source laser spectroscopy

Online measurements of the magnetic dipole moments and isotope shifts of 58 Cu and 59 Cu by the in-source laser spectroscopy method are reported. The results for the magnetic moments are μ( 58 Cu) = +0.52(8) μ N , μ( 59 Cu)= +1.84(3) μ N and for the isotope shifts δν 59,65 = 1.72(22) GHz and δν 58,65 = 1.99(30) GHz in the transition from the 3d 10 4s 2 S 1/2 ground state to the 3d 10 4p 2 P 1/2 state in Cu I. The magnetic moment of 58 Cu is discussed in the context of the strength of the subshell closure at 56 Ni, additivity rules and large-scale shell model calculations.
A Survey on Audio Watermarking Techniques

Watermarking is closely related to steganography, b ut in watermarking the hidden information is usually rela t d to cover object. Hence its mainly used for copyright protection and owner authentication. Image watermarking is used to hide the special information into the im age and to later detect and extract that special information f r the author ownership. Video watermarking is used to add watermark in the video stream to control video applications. It is extension of image watermarking . Audio watermarking is one of most popular due to internet music. Text watermarking adds watermark to the PDF, docume nt and other text file to prevent the changes made tex t. The watermark is inserted in the font shape and the spa ce between characters and line spaces. Graphic watermarking is embed the watermark to 2Dcomputer generated grap hics to indicate the copyright. This paper study the con cept of audio watermarking and its related techniques.
Improving the state selectivity of field ionization with quantum control

The electron signals from the field ionization of two closely-spaced Rydberg states of \mbox{rubidium-85} are separated using quantum control. In selective field ionization, the state distribution of a collection of Rydberg atoms is measured by ionizing the atoms with a ramped electric field. Generally, atoms in higher energy states ionize at lower fields, so ionized electrons which are detected earlier in time can be correlated with higher energy Rydberg states. However, the resolution of this technique is limited by the Stark effect. As the electric field is increased, the electron encounters numerous avoided Stark level crossings which split the amplitude among many states, thus broadening the time-resolved ionization signal. Previously, a genetic algorithm has been used to control the signal shape of a single Rydberg state. The present work extends this technique to separate the signals from the $34s$ and $33p$ states of rubidium-85, which are overlapped when using a simple field ramp as in selective field ionization.
Scramble Versus Contest Competition in a Two Patch System

The population dynamics in two patch discrete-time systems are different if they are modeled by the Logistic and Verhulst equations. First, we analyze one patch systems modeled with each of the equations. Then we study two patch systems, where the local dynamics between the two patches are coupled with Logistic equations regulated by the scramble competition. We also compare this with the Verhulst equation where the behavior is regulated by contest competition. It is known that fractal basin boundaries of attractors could occur in two-patch systems regulated by the scramble competition. We show that such complex dynamics do not occur in contest competition with dispersion between patches. [5]
Strategier for tværsamarbejde sætter professionsidentiteter under pres

Tværfagligt samarbejde har i de senere år spillet en fremtrædende rolle i at udvikle og transformere velfærdsstaten og dens institutioner og tilskrives positive potentialer i forhold til samarbejde læring og synergi. Denne artikel undersøger hvordan strategier om tværfagligt samarbejde er med til at udfordre og ændre de faglige identiteter hos blandt andet sygeplejersker og socialrådgivere. Tilgangen i artiklen er en Bourdieu baseret institutionel dokumentanalyse – udviklet til formålet af policy dokumenter udgivet af forskellige velfærdsstatslige institutioner. Artiklen rejser spørgsmål om, hvorvidt tværfagligt samarbejde medfører en deeller reprofessionaliseringstendens, især indenfor områder hvor der er tale om at varetage en funktion som velfærdsstatens vogter af humanistiske og/eller solidariske værdier
1 OV / P-1 Overview of the FTU results

Since the 2016 IAEA-FEC Conference, FTU operations have been mainly devoted to experiments on runaway electrons and investigations about a tin liquid limiter; other experiments have involved the elongated plasmas and dust studies. The tearing mode onset in the high density regime has been studied by means of the linear resistive code MARS and the highly collisional regimes have been investigated. New diagnostics, such as a Runaway Electron Imaging Spectroscopy system for in-flight runaways studies and a triple Cherenkov probe for the measurement of escaping electrons, have been successfully installed and tested, and new capabilities of the Collective Thomson Scattering and the Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy diagnostics have been explored.
Bridging the Gap : Computer-Aided Engineering for Energy Security and Environmental Protection

Engineers use computational tools to address a variety of practical problems. Often, the role of computer aided engineering is to capture the opportunities for wealth creation, as well as societal and environmental impacts through integrating, otherwise disconnected, piece of knowledge and closing the gap between theoretical developments and corresponding applications. The present article reports some aspects of our research activities at Centre for Process Systems Engineering (CPSE), where Computer Aided Chemical Engineering is applied to address important problems, with energy and environmental implications. The discussed examples include (1) integrated design and control of industrial processes (2) biofuel production, (3) carbon capture from industrial processes. While the explored applications are by no mean exhaustive, they are illustrative examples of recent advancements in the field. Introduction The engineers’ endeavours for delivering economic values as well as protecting environment and enhancing the quality of life require bridging over a variety of gaps. Examples include the gap between “theory” and “application”, between “academy” and “industry”, or between “economy” and “environment”. Figure 1. The role of Computer-Aided Chemical Engineering is to bridge over various gaps Integrated Process Design and Control
Influence of the Backslopping Practice on the Microbial Diversity of the Lactococcus Population in a Model Cheesemaking

The objective of this work was to study the microbial diversity of natural whey starters (NWS), with a special focus on Lactococcus strains, during 10 successive days of backslopping. Each day, whey samples were enumerated for their Lactococcus, Enterococcus, Leuconostoc and Lactobacillus levels. The diversity and dynamics of the Lactococcus population in whey were investigated using phenotypic methods such as acidifying aptitude and enzymatic activities. Molecular approach using REP-PCR, ERIC-PCR, plamid profiles, phages and prophages research and PFGE was also applied. Lactococci were the main population in whey. Strains from raw milk were sub-dominant. Based on PFGE and phenotypic results lactococci in whey displayed a more heterogeneous phenotype and pulsotype which may reflect greater variations than previously observed within starter. No phages and prophages were spotted on. Plasmids did not seem to be exchanged from strain to strain. The backslopping practice seemed to allow the strains of the starter to rapidly acquire a specificity of their own. The changes observed presumed a slow adaptation of the strains to the “back- slopping environment”. The study of NWS diversity constitutes an important step for the comprehension of acidification defects that recurrently occur in cheesemaking technologies using the backslopping practice.
CLASSICAL NOVAE IN ANDROMEDA: LIGHT CURVES FROM THE PALOMAR TRANSIENT FACTORY AND GALEX

We present optical light curves of 29 novae in M31 during the 2009 and 2010 observing seasons of the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF). The dynamic and rapid cadences in PTF monitoring of M31, from one day to ten minutes, provide excellent temporal coverage of nova light curves, enabling us to record the photometric evolution of M31 novae in unprecedented detail. We also detect eight of these novae in the near-ultraviolet (UV) band with the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite. Novae M31N 2009-10b and M31N 2010-11a show prominent UV emission peaking a few days prior to their optical maxima, possibly implying aspherical outbursts. Additionally, our blueshifted spectrum of the recent outburst of PT And (M31N 2010-12a) indicates that it is a recurrent nova in M31 and not a dwarf nova in the Milky Way as was previously assumed. Finally, we systematically searched for novae in all confirmed globular clusters (GCs) of M31 and found only M31N 2010-10f associated with Bol 126. The specific nova rate in the M31 GC system is thus about one per year, which is not enhanced relative to the rate outside the GC system.
Scoring Analysis of the Wrestling from the 2016 Rio Olympic Games

ABSTRACT The videos of all wrestling matches from the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio were analyzed for scoring and technique. Summaries were compiled for all three styles—Men’s Freestyle, Women’s Freestyle, and Greco-Roman. The performance of the top countries and the champions are presented. Attack efficacy, represented by points scored per minute, is presented for the style as a whole for the top countries and for the weight-class champions. The technical structure of the champions, with scoring by type of technique, is also presented. This was done for all three styles—Men’s Freestyle, Women’s Freestyle, and Greco-Roman. Trends observed during the Olympic cycle between London 2012 and Rio 2016 are discussed.
M-dwarf exoplanet surface density distribution. A log-normal fit from 0.07 to 400AU

We fit a log-normal function to the M dwarf orbital surface density distribution of gas giant planets, over the mass range 1-10 times that of Jupiter, from 0.07-400 AU. We use a Markov Chain Monte Carlo approach to explore the likelihoods of various parameter values consistent with point estimates of the data given our assumed functional form. This fit is consistent with radial velocity, microlensing, and direct imaging observations, is well-motivated from theoretical and phenomenological viewpoints, and makes predictions of future surveys. We present probability distributions for each parameter as well as a Maximum Likelihood Estimate solution. We suggest this function makes more physical sense than other widely used functions, and explore the implications of our results on the design of future exoplanet surveys.
