Dual-Objective Energy Management Strategy for HEV

Based on equivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS), the approaches by genetic algorithm (GA), learning vector quantization neural networks (LVQ NNs) and fuzzy logic algorithm (FLA) are integrated to adjust/tune the power split ratio between internal combustion engines (ICE) and belt-driven starter generators (BSG). The proposed bi-object equivalent consumption minimization strategy (BOECMS) possesses three key features: being real-time, causal and capable of fulfilling two objects, namely, (i) minimizing fuel consumption, and (ii) ensuring a stable battery state of charge (SOC) within a relatively narrow range. A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) model and its corresponding power split strategy are developed and verified by using the vehicle simulator ADVISOR (advanced vehicle simulator) and Simulink at the design stage. For practicality, the proposed control strategy, BOECMS, is converted into C code and then written into the embedded micro-processor to conduct the necessary hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) experiments at the verification stage. According to computer simulation results, fuel economy improved by 40.39 % over pure ICE vehicles for the “MANHATTAN” drive cycle. In addition, the SOC can be retained within a relatively narrow range: [0.4, 0.6]. Finally and significantly, the experimental results by HIL converge well with computer simulation results using Simulink, implying BOECMS can potentially be applied to the real-world driving in the future.
Shared Task on the Disambiguation of German Verbal Idioms at KONVENS 2021

The processing of multiword expressions (MWEs) has gained a lot of attention in recent years. Not least thanks to the shared tasks on verbal MWE identiﬁcation organized by the PARSEME network. A phenomenon that because of its inherently rare nature is quite infrequent in datasets such as the PARSEME corpus are literal readings of verbal idioms (VIDs). This makes it difﬁcult to efﬁciently train systems capable of identifying them. To alleviate this issue for German we built a VID corpus with a higher than usual number of literal readings. Together with the SemEval 2013 Task 5b dataset this formed the corpus for the Shared Task on the Disambiguation of German Verbal Idioms at KONVENS 2021. This paper describes the organization of the competition as well as the results of the participating systems.
SOLID DISPERSION A METHOD FOR SOLUBILITY ENHANCEMENT: A REVIEW

Strong scatterings have pulled in impressive enthusiasm as proficient methods for improving the disintegration rate and henceforth the bioavailability of a scope of hydrophobic medications. This article surveys the different arrangement procedures for strong scattering and gathers a portion of the ongoing innovation moves. The various kinds of strong scatterings dependent on the atomic plan have been featured. A portion of the functional angles to be considered for the readiness of strong scatterings, for example, determination of transporter and strategies for physicochemical portrayal, alongside knowledge into the sub-atomic plan of medications in strong scatterings are likewise examined. At last, an inside and out method of reasoning for restricted commercialization of strong scatterings and ongoing restoration has been thought of.
Inductive source degenerative LNA for radar altimeters

This paper deals with the design of Low Noise Amplifier with inductive source degeneration technique using ADS simulation tool. The major parameters on which RADAR Altimeter working depends is the sensitivity and selectivity of the first RF amplifier after receiving antenna which captures all the available signals. But the rain attenuates the propagating EM waves which results in a distorted signal being received by the antenna. The LNA designed will improve the signal strength i.e. the gain and reduces the noise figure for better detection of earth’s surface reflected radio signal at the receiver of aircraft. The low noise amplifier designed is with inductive source degeneration which is a stability improvement technique that proved to be an efficient and optimum design resulting in power gain of 14.735 dB and noise fig-ure of 0.132 dB.
Comparison of location-based, attribute-based and hybrid regionalization techniques for mapping forest site productivity Testing novel cytokinins for improved in vitro adventitious shoots formation and subsequent ex vitro performance in Pinus radiata

Summary Forest site productivity maps can be of great help for sustainable forest management. Site productivity maps, commonly representing the site index (SI) of a specific tree species, allow foresters to forecast wood production over the entire area of interest and hence select the most appropriate location for establishing a particular tree species mix. In many situations, forest SI cannot be directly measured from the dominant height and age of a stand and must therefore be directly estimated from relevant local site factors related to climate, topography and/or soil (attribute-based approach). Alternatively, estimations can also be made based on site information available for nearby locations (location-based approach). Also both approaches can be combined (hybrid approach). Since there is no straightforward procedure for selecting the most appropriate approach, the performance of five regionalization techniques was compared for predictive mapping of the SI of two important tree species in the temperate lowland region of Flanders (Belgium): one location-based technique (ordinary kriging), one attribute-based technique (regression) and three hybrid techniques (geomatch-ing, ordinary co-kriging and regression kriging). From the findings of this case study, it cannot be concluded that one technique outperforms the others under all circumstances, but it to build a decision tree providing guidance in selecting an appropriate SI mapping technique depending on the availability and characteristics of the data. Summary The aim of this study was to assess the effect of cytokinins not commonly used for shoot induction from zygotic embryos of Pinus radiata D. Don. The influence of in vitro shoot and root induction treatments on the subsequent ex vitro development of the regenerated plants was also tested. Embryos were cultured with benzyladenine (BA), thidiazuron (T) and two cytokinins not previously assayed in radiata pine organogenesis ( meta -topolin (m-T) and zeatin (Z)) in a range of concentrations and induction periods. Shoot induction treatments were assayed in seeds from different geographical origins to obtain wider conclusions. We analysed the effect of these cytokinin treatments on in vitro rooting with different auxins ((indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and 1-naphtalene acetic acid (NAA)) and the traditionally used mixture. After in vitro rooting, the plantlets were acclimatized and their ex vitro behaviour was evaluated. Shoot induction treatments with 1 μ M BA for 2 weeks, 4.4 μ M BA for 3 weeks or 1 μ M Z for 3 weeks were more effective than the other treatments. An interaction between in vitro shoot and root induction treatments was observed. IBA was more efficient for plant production because the explants rooted in this auxin had better survival rates in the greenhouse.
Concept Analysis on “Maternal Distress”

Maternal distress as a phenomenon that offers a new, alternative and women centered approach to understanding women’s psychological health in the transition to motherhood. The perinatal period is recognized as a period of major transition that can be exceedingly emotional, and associated with considerable distress. Based on the Walker & Avant, 2005, concept analysis methods, 25 papers have reviewed to analyze the concept of maternal distress. The defining attributes of maternal distress are summarized from several studies. These are during the transition to motherhood. Three main attributes were noted in this study are: Dynamic, adapting response, and connecting response. In addition, antecedents of maternal distress also identified: Transition of motherhood, loss of employment, sickness in the family, infant temperament, parenting stress and marital disagreement. The consequences of maternal distress were found: Low birth weight, preterm birth, spontaneous abortion, structural malformations, preeclampsia, impaired maternal-fetal attachment, impaired early child development, and inability to function. This finding suggested being that nurse administrators and managers could apply this finding in Bangladesh for build up suitable intervention programs to reduce maternal distress among pregnant women that can contribute to reduce low birth weight, preterm birth, spontaneous abortion and so on.
Internal Fluctuations in a Population of Deer Mice with Hantavirus Infection

We study the role of internal fluctuations and the thermodynamic limit in the population dynamics of deer mice, and describe the evolution of infected mice with Sin Nombre virus. This virus is the main cause of Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS) among humans in North America. In this way, we try to support those features observed in phenomenological models as the critical carrying capacity, Kc and the delay between population of mice and infected ones. We introduce the underlying processes, in particular the delayed maturation process, and derive from the master equation the mean field description for the thermodynamic limit. It matches the phenomenological model. Then we compare the model with the numerical Gillespie algorithm for the long-term phenomenon related to El Niño southern oscillations. Internal fluctuations are able to drive the infection to extinction, mostly in the scenario of El Niño, for both the transient and the steady state. We also study analitically the steady state. On the other hand, the thermodynamic limit plays the opposite role, and supports the infection. In general, we see how those features observed in the phenomenological description are where recovered both in the scenario related to La Niña and in the thermodynamic limit.
¿Por qué estamos en STEM? Un intento de definir la alfabetización STEM para todo el mundo y con valores.

específicas y transversales es-téticos interdisciplinariedad las actividades STEM habituales. Equidad STEM education is an emergent approach with a lot of presence in the current educational arena. Further than the need to have an impact in the STEM education field in an innovative way, however, there is not enough agreement among STEM education researchers, teach-ers, educators and/or designers. As a consequence, there are a lot of different ways to con-ceive both what to do and how to do it in STEM education. Our standing point in this paper is to signal the need to agree on the purpose to enrol in the demanding STEM educational approach before discussing the what’s and how’s of STEM education. To do so, we start by sharing a first initial attempt to define STEM literacy for all, in which the specific and high-order transversal competences and values of STEM education are more emphasised than technological, aesthetic or interdisciplinary aspects which are, on the other hand, quite com-mon in STEM education activities.

RECENT INCREASB IN KILLING OF GIANT TORTOISES ON ISABELA ISLAND By :

Several populations of giant tortoises (Geochelone elephantopus) on Isabela Island are once again endangered, this time due to poaching by local inhabitants. During 1994,theIevel of killing has increased alarmingly and may cause irreparable damage. The distribution of the five subspecies of giant tortoises on Isabela is determined by the five large volcanoes and the natural barriers among them (Fig.
EFFECT OF EGYPTIAN CLOVER HAY SUBSTITUTION WITH SUGAR BEET PULP ON GROWING RABBITS PERFORMANCE

This work was carried out to study the effect of Egyptian clover hay substitution with sugar beet pulp on growing rabbits performance, carcass traits, digestability of nutrients, feeding values and economical efficiency. Eighty unsexed New-Zealand White (NZW) growing rabbits of 5 weeks were randomly allotted into 5 equal groups (16 rabbits each, with 8 replicates each of two rabbits) to study the effect of substituting Egyptian clover hay (CH) by sugar beet pulp (SBP) at different rates on growing rabbits performance. Five diets were fed to NZW rabbits from 5-13 weeks of age. The first group was fed the basal diet as a control, while the other four groups were fed diets contaning 9, 18, 27 and 36% SBP, respectivaly which represents replacment rate of 25, 50, 75 and 100% of CH in the control diet. Growth performance, carcass traits, digestability coeffecient and feeding values were studied. Results showed that, replacing CH in the control diet with SBP up to 75%, significantly increased (P < 0.01) live body weight (LBW) and body weight gain (BWG) of the most ages during the experimental period. Rabbits fed 25, 50 and 75% SBP instead of CH recorded the highest viability values. Daily feed intake (FI) was insignificantly decreased with increasing the most levels of CH substitution with SBP while feed conversion (FC) values were significantly (P < 0.05) improved with increasing levels of SBP during the most ages of the experimental period. The inclusion of SBP replacement of CH up to 75% had a significantly (P < 0.05) positive effect on the digestibility coefficients of CP and NFE. Each of DCP, TDN and DE were gradually increased (P < 0.01) when 25, 50 and 75% SBP replaced CH in control diet. All carcass characteristics studied, length of each part of the gastrointestinal tract and pH of digestive tract were not significantly affected by feeding the SBP diets. The best efficiency value was for the rabbits fed 75% SBP substitution of CH, followed by 100, 50 and 25% SBP replacements. Results obtained seemed to justly the following conclusion: From the nutritional and economical point of view, using SBP up to 75% substitution for CH (27%) in growing NZW rabbit diets had no adverse effect on each of growth performance, viability rate, digestion coefficients, carcass characteristics and digestive tract measurements.
Implementation of an energy extraction control including PTO-losses in a complete WEC model for PTO design procedure

A wave to wire (W2W) wave energy converter (WEC) model is described. The W2W has been developed to be integrated in a methodology for the selection and optimization of the power take-off (PTO) of a given WEC. This methodology is used as an assessment tool for determining an adequate set of PTO characteristics for a particular prime mover in a particular sea location (with a specific ocean wave climate), and a case study is presented. The W2W has been modified to take into account a power take-off (PTO) losses model and the PTO rated force limitation. These two main modifications allow to properly evaluate the electric power generated by the WEC. In this paper, the PTO model is particularized for an electric linear generator. In addition, the modifications are considered in the definition of the WEC power extraction control. Although the use of reactive mechanical power can increase the extracted mechanical power, the control algorithm must take into account the losses of the PTO in order to avoid an excessive penalization of the electrical power generated by the WEC.
Speech Recognition model compression by Madhumitha Sakthi REPORT

Speech Recognition model compression Madhumitha Sakthi, M.S.E. The University of Texas at Austin, 2019 Supervisor: Ahmed Tewfik Speech recognition models are widely deployed in mobile and embedded devices. However, the base architecture with which these models are developed is usually made of neural networks with bigger size and millions of model parameters. In this report, we investigate three compression schemes for these neural network architecture with a trade-off on accuracy and compressed model size. Also, we perform sensitivity analysis on the network parameters with known perturbations to determine the best compression scheme for a particular layer. The first compression scheme deployed is k-means clustering. This helps in generating clusters which are used for weight sharing and hence reduction in the total number of parameters required. Secondly, we employ svd based compression on various network layer parameters and achieve the best compression using svd in the case of a large vocabulary continuous speech recognition model. Finally, a two-stage compression scheme using k-means and
Keep Your Eye on the Game: The Impact of Distraction and Scoreboard Watching during Major League Baseball Playoff Races

This study examines 11 years and 26,370 of Major League Baseball’s (i.e., MLB) game outcomes to test whether distraction, through scoreboard watching, causes teams to choke under pressure. Results indicate that scoreboard watching significantly impacts the probability of winning a game, especially in playoff races. Specifically, teams in a playoff race had a 0.158 lower probability of winning games when the division leader won its game the previous day. Consistent with distraction theory, the analysis also shows that the distraction effects are 0.224 greater on home teams. There is evidence of increased distraction as criticality of games increase. When there are fewer than 10 games remaining in a playoff race, the impact of a division leader win reduces a team’s win probability by 0.243. Changes to league structure reduced win probability by 0.039 for seasons starting in 2012. This involved the addition of a Wild Card team to each league and an increase to the value of winning a division. This study helps fill a gap in the literature in relation to research on external factors and their impact on game outcomes. If a team can account for factors related to winning a game then it could be possible to gain a competitive advantage over the opposition. The findings also have practical applications. MLB teams can take initiatives to eliminate distraction and keep players’ attention on the task at hand surrounding critical games.
Clinical Implications of Recommendations in Current Guidelines on Anticoagulation in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in the clinics. We aimed to evaluate the clinical implications of anticoagulation in terms of warfarin that is recommended by current guidelines. Among patients having an indication for Oral Anti Coagulation (OAC), those under treatment with warfarin and those that are not taking were compared (n: 205). 117 of the 190 patients with an indication for OAC (57.0% of the patient population; 61.6% of those with an indication for OAC) were found to be taking OAC. 73 patients had an indication, but were not taking warfarin for a variety of reasons. 83 patients were detected, who had an indication for warfarin and did take warfarin, and found to have INR controls in the retrospective screening, 58 of which (69.9%) had an effective INR. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups who were taking and who were not taking warfarin, in terms of HAS-BLED and CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc scores (p = 0.656, p = 0.696, respectively). Treatment may not be initiated in patients with an indication for OAC treatment, due to patient-related reasons, physician-related reasons, medication-related reasons, or therapeutic levels may not be achieved, or drug treatment is interrupted due to various reasons, as a result of patient non-compliance.
The Carnegie Supernova Project II

We present multiwavelength observations of two gap transients that were followed by the Carnegie Supernova Project-II. The observations are supplemented with data obtained by a number of different programs. Here in the first of two papers, we focus on the intermediate-luminosity red transient (ILRT) designated SNhunt120, while in a companion paper we examine the luminous red novae AT 2014ej. Our data set for SNhunt120 consists of an early optical discovery, estimated to be within three days after outburst, the subsequent optical and near-infrared broadband followup extending over a period of about two months, two visual and two near-infrared wavelength spectra, and Spitzer Space Telescope observations extending from early (+28 d) to late (+1155 d) phases. SNhunt120 resembles other ILRTs such as NGC 300-2008-OT and SN 2008S, and like these other ILRTs, SNhunt120 exhibits prevalent mid-infrared emission at both early and late phases. From the comparison of SNhunt120 and other ILRTs to electron-capture supernova simulations, we find that the current models underestimate the explosion kinetic energy and thereby produce synthetic light curves that overestimate the luminosity. Finally, examination of pre-outburst Hubble Space Telescope images yields no progenitor detection.
