Hidden and Fast Liquidity - Hidden Orders and High-Frequency Trading
Authors: Lenczewski Martins Carlos Jorge
Published: April 2020

This work focuses on two of the more frequent practices in financial (especially capital) markets -the use of hidden orders and High-Frequency Trading (HFT). Although the use of each of them may reach 40% of the market turnover - even 60% for HFT, the actual knowledge on how they affect liquidity, prices, and market structure is still limited - especially if they are combined. The presence of both of these practices may look controversial, as it seems to be going in the opposite direction to what some of the goals that market regulators try to reach - transparency and increase of market liquidity. Additionally, their use suggests first, to give a clear advantage to some traders while not knowing the exact consequences to others. The aim of this paper is, by performing a literature study, to structure the current knowledge on a very specific topic in the area of market microstructure - the use of hidden orders and High-Frequency Trading. This paper tries to show the motivations, strategies, and eventual price effects behind hidden orders and High-Frequency Trading. It is also important to mention that this paper is based on scarce empirical research available (mainly for the US market) and as such, it is intended to encourage further analysis and research on this important topic.

THE IMPACT OF POOR SANITATION ON TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: A GLOBAL REVIEW
Authors: Elysia Vita , Wihadanto Ake
Published: April 2020

Aim: The objective of this paper is to review the impact of poor sanitation on global tourism development. Methodology and Results: The majority of the data for this study was sourced from World Development Indicators (WDI) dataset for more than 200 countries in 2014 from the World Bank. A regression analysis was applied to analyze the impact of access to improved sanitation on tourism development by using some indicators such as the number of tourist arrivals, the proportion of the population using improved sanitation facilities, and the proportion of the population using improved water facilities. The study found that the relationship between the proportion of the population using improved sanitation facilities and the number of tourist arrivals is significant. Poor sanitation has been shown to have huge negative impacts on public health and the economy. In terms of the economic impacts, the lack of access to improved sanitation causes economic losses related to the direct costs of treating sanitation-related diseases and the indirect cost of lost income through reduced productivity. Conclusion, significance, and impact study: Access to basic sanitation facilities is regarded as one of the aspects that should be considered to support the tourism industry, particularly in developing countries. This study suggests that providing sanitation is the best investment for promoting tourism. Decision-makers should act now, and in a concerted way, to provide adequate sanitation services and at the same time sustaining tourism growth as an essential aspect of a country’s economy.
Variation in Thematic-Rhematic Articulation of a Sentence (On the Example of Recordings of the Short Story A Malefactor by Anton Chekhov)
Authors: Plotnikov Ilya M. , Kuznetsova Elena S.
Published: April 2020

The aim of this article is to study the variation of topical structure depending on the intentions of the speaker. The article proposes a method of comparative study of voiced texts via their topical structure, which allows observing paradigmatic potential of a sentence within a preset context. In order to do so, the thematic-rhematic articulation of the text is compared to the articulations of its audio recordings. The deviations observed serve as a representation of the communicative intentions of the speaker.
In the short story under consideration, more than a half of the utterances exhibit at least some degree of variation. The examples show that the thematic-rhematic articulation of an utterance influences its meaning, the way it interacts with the context and in some cases even its syntactic structure. Thus, thematic-rhematic articulation is a key concept for describing realization of a sentence in speech.

Published: April 2020

The outbreak of a novel human coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has evolved into global health emergency, infecting hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. We have identified experimental data on the inhibitory activity of compounds tested against closely related (96% sequence identity, 100% active site conservation) protease of SARS-CoV and employed this data to build QSAR models for this dataset. We employed these models for virtual screening of all drugs from DrugBank, including compounds in clinical trials. Molecular docking and similarity search approaches were explored in parallel with QSAR modeling, but molecular docking failed to correctly discriminate between experimentally active and inactive compounds. As a result of our studies, we recommended 41 approved, experimental, or investigational drugs as potential agents against SARS-CoV-2 acting as putative inhibitors of Mpro. Ten compounds with feasible prices were purchased and are awaiting the experimental validation.

Published: April 2020

Current administrative controls used to verify geographical provenance within palm oil supply chains require enhancement and strengthening by more robust analytical methods. In this study, the application of volatile organic compound fingerprinting, in combination with five different analytical classification models, has been used to verify the regional geographical provenance of crude palm oil samples. For this purpose, 108 crude palm oil samples were collected from two regions within Malaysia, namely Peninsular Malaysia (32) and Sabah (76). Samples were analysed by gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) and the five predictive models (Sparse Logistic Regression, Random Forests, Gaussian Processes, Support Vector Machines, and Artificial Neural Networks) were built and applied. Models were validated using 10-fold cross-validation. The Area Under Curve (AUC) measure was used as a summary indicator of the performance of each classifier. All models performed well (AUC 0.96) with the Sparse Logistic Regression model giving best performance (AUC = 0.98). This demonstrates that the verification of the geographical origin of crude palm oil is feasible by volatile organic compound fingerprinting, using GC-IMS supported by chemometric analysis.

Published: April 2020

This work addressed how self-replicating molecules can evolve to become more complex. Subjecting a system in which two self-replicating molecules compete for a common food source to a regime in which they are both degraded leads to survival of the most complex of the two replicators, even though this replicator is less efficient at replicating. These results show that chemical fueling of a replication process can drive the complexification of the replicator. The more complex replicator is also more proficient at catalyzing a model reaction, showing that complexification can also enhance (catalytic) function.

The rapid outbreak of SARS-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) caused a serious global public health threat. The spike ‘S’ protein of SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2 of the host cell are being targeted to design and discover new drugs to control Covid-19 disease. Similarly, a transmembrane serine protease, TMPRSS2 of the host cell has been found to play a significant role in proteolytic cleavage of viral spike protein priming to the receptor ACE2 present in human cell. However, three dimensional structure and inhibition mechanism of TMPRSS2 is yet to be explored experimentally. Hence, in the present study we have generated a homology model of TMPRSS2 and studied its binding properties with experimentally studied inhibitors viz. Camostat mesylate, Nafamostat and Bromhexine hydrochloride (BHH) using molecular docking technique. Docking analysis revealed that the Camostat mesylate and its structural analogue Nafamostat interacts strongly with residues His296, Ser441 and Asp435 present in catalytic triad of TMPRSS2. However, BHH interacts with Gln438 and other residues present in the active site pocket of TMPRSS2 through hydrophobic contacts effectively. Thus, these results revealed the inhibition mechanism of TMPRSS2 by known inhibitors Camostat mesylate, Nafamostat and Bromhexine hydrochloride in detail at the molecular level. However, Camostat mesylate shows strong binding as compared to other two inhibitors. This structural information could also be useful to design and discover new inhibitors of TMPRSS2, which may be helpful to prevent the entry to SARS-Coronavirus 2 in human cell.
A Method for Real Time Detection of Reaction Endpoints Using a Moving Window T-Test of in Situ Time Course Data
Authors: Towns Elyse N. , Guo John , O'Brien Alexander , Bondi Robert W.
Published: April 2020

In-line mid-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to monitor a reaction which had a highly inconsistent rate due to sensitivity to changes in process parameters and the quality of the starting materials. Accurate determination of the endpoint in real time was needed to prevent formation of an impurity by degradation of the product. A moving window t-test algorithm was used to predict and determine the endpoint by analysis of FTIR trends during the reaction. The method was selected because it determined the endpoint in the correct range for reactions with different process parameters and data collected with different FTIR instruments. During development, the FTIR and t-test algorithm were used to monitor reactions for feasibility studies, process optimization, use tests, robustness DoE, and scale up to pilot plant. The method for monitoring the reaction may be useful in a GMP manufacturing environment where sampling and analysis are time consuming.
Solid Phase Excitation-Emission Matrix Spectroscopy for In-Situ Chemical Analysis of Combustion Aerosols

Published: April 2020

Exposure to combustion generated aerosols such as PM from residential woodburning, forest fires, cigarette smoke, and traffic emission have been linked to adverse health outcomes. It is important to assess the chemical composition of PM to examine personal exposure. Excitation-emission matrix (EEM) spectroscopy has been shown as a sensitive and cost-effective technique for evaluation of combustion PM composition and as a source apportionment tool. However, EEM measurements are hindered by a solvent extraction step and a need for benchtop instrumentation. Here, we present a methodology that eliminates this labor-intensive sample preparation and allows to automate and miniaturize the detection platform. A miniature electrostatic collector deposits PM sample onto transparent polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coated substrate, where PAH components are extracted into solid-phase (SP) solvent and analyzed using EEM spectroscopy in-situ. We evaluated external and internal excitation schemes to optimized signal to noise ratio. Analysis of woodsmoke and cigarette smoke samples showed good agreement with liquid extraction EEM spectra. Internal excitation is hindered by fluorescent interference from PDMS at λ<250nm. The external excitation EEM spectra are dependent on the incident angle; ranges of 30-40⁰ and 55-65⁰ showed the best results. The proposed SP-EEM technique can be used for development of miniaturized sensors for chemical analysis of combustion generated PM.

Se evaluaron ocho tratamientos, los cuales consistieron en precortes a cada 10 días a partir del corte de uniformidad, el cual se realizó el 1 de julio. Se utilizó un diseño de bloques completos al azar, con tres repeticiones por tratamiento. Se evaluó el rendimiento de semilla total, semilla pura, semilla pura germinable, porcentaje de germinación de la semilla cosechada, número de panículas totales por m2, número de panículas maduras por m2, longitud de panícula, número de semillas cosechadas por panícula, peso de semillas por panícula, porcentaje de pureza y peso de mil semillas. Se detectaron diferencias (p< 0.05) entre tratamientos para rendimiento de semilla pura y semilla pura germinable, donde los mayores valores (205.2 y 103.1 kg ha-1, respectivamente) se obtuvieron con la fecha de precorte del 20 de julio, también hubo diferencia significativa para el número de semillas cosechadas por panícula y peso de semillas por panícula. Se concluye que el 20 de julio es la mejor fecha de precorte para incrementar el rendimiento de semilla de Megathyrsus maximus cv. Mombaza.

Background

We implemented a comprehensive intervention (Samata) to address school drop-out and child marriage among rural, marginalised adolescent girls in north Karnataka, south India. Here, we investigate (i) the impact of the intervention on factors hypothesised at baseline to be on the pathway to preventing school drop-out and child marriage, and (ii) associations between these factors and secondary school completion and child marriage.

Methods

Data was collected for a cluster-RCT evaluation. Factors hypothesised to be on the pathway to improving secondary school retention and delaying age at marriage included: (i) uptake of skills and training by adolescent girls; (ii) uptake of government school scholarships by families of adolescent girls; (iii) gender equitable attitudes among girls; (iv) reduced harassment by boys; and (v) an enabling school environment. Analyses used individual-level cluster-RCT survey data, were intention-to-treat and used mixed-effects logisitic regression models.

Results

92.6% (2257/2457) of girls participated at baseline (13-14 years) and 72.8% (1788/2457) participated at end-line (15-16 years). At end-line, uptake of skills and training, gender equitable attitudes around marriage, and recent harassment by boys were significantly higher among girls in the intervention arm but there was no difference in uptake of government school scholarships, gender equitable attitudes around education or eve-teasing, or an enabling school environment by trial arm. Out-of-school/married girls were significantly less likely to have accessed skills or training, to have attended empowerment groups or to have made new friends (past year). They had lower levels of self-efficacy and were twice as likely to report having no hope for the future compared with their in-school/unmarried counterparts.

Conclusions

Samata was implemented in a context of substantial secular change across India; impacting on some of the factors hypothesised to be on the pathway was not sufficient to improve secondary school retention or delay marriage beyond what was already occurring.

School dropout and child marriage were associated with diminished opportunities and well-being among girls. Targeted interventions are still needed; learnings from our study can be used to inform future interventions which similarly aim to impact on child marriage and secondary school retention within programmatic timeframes.
Philosophy of Ethnobiology: Understanding Knowledge Integration and Its Limitations
Authors: Ludwig David , El-Hani Charbel N.
Published: April 2020

Ethnobiology has become increasingly concerned with applied and normative issues, such as climate change adaptation, forest management, and sustainable agriculture. Applied ethnobiology emphasizes the practical importance of local and traditional knowledge in tackling these issues but thereby also raises complex theoretical questions about the integration of heterogeneous knowledge systems. The aim of this article is to develop a framework for addressing questions of integration through four core domains of philosophy—epistemology, ontology, value theory, and political theory. In each of these dimensions, we argue for a model of “partial overlaps” that acknowledges both substantial similarities and differences between knowledge systems. While overlaps can ground successful collaboration, their partiality requires reflectivity about the limitations of collaboration and co-creation. By outlining such a general and programmatic framework, the article aims to contribute to developing “philosophy of ethnobiology” as a field of interdisciplinary exchange that provides new resources for addressing foundational issues in ethnobiology and also expands the agenda of philosophy of biology.
Classifying Mermaids: Observations on Local Naming and Classification of Dugongs (Dugong dugon) among the Lio of Flores Island (Eastern Indonesia)
Authors: Forth Gregory
Published: April 2020

Folk biological classifications and the taxonomic schemes of scientific biology have often been conceived as two monoliths that sometimes correspond and sometimes do not—as, for example, when folk zoologists classify whales as fish. The Lio people of Flores Island describe dugongs ( Dugong dugon) as creatures that are half human and half fish, thus, essentially like the European image of mermaids. The characterization relates to a myth, widespread in Southeast Asia, which depicts the animals as deriving from a woman. At the same time, Lio speak of dugongs as, simply, a kind of fish. This apparent inconsistency is reflected in several ways people name dugongs, as well as in sex-differentiable terms and numeral classifiers employed when speaking about the animals. Reviewing different ways Lio describe dugong morphology, this nomenclatural variety is shown to correspond to three complementary models identified as diametric, concentric, and chronological dualism. Finally, I demonstrate how these models are comparable to competing ways of representing relationships among animals in modern biological systematics and discuss the implications of such parallels for ongoing debates about similarity and difference between folk and international biology.
Winged Voices: Mapuche Ornithology from South American Temperate Forests

Ethno-ornithological studies have shown the complexity of indigenous systems of classification of local biota. However, there is still a lack of knowledge about the etymology of bird names used by indigenous peoples in many locations and about the phenomenological meaning of these names. We conducted an extensive literature review of Mapuche bird names and their etymologies. Because of the relative importance of onomatopoeias as the origin of Mapuche bird names, we compared the proportion of onomatopoeic names used by different forest-dwelling indigenous peoples worldwide. We found 219 bird names in Mapuzugun for 92 species and 135 etymologies for 72 different species. Sixty-four (47%) etymologies were onomatopoeic, while 29 (21%) etymologies came from the bird's appearance and 21 (16%) from its behavior. Out of a total of 13 different indigenous peoples examined, only the Mbuti (Congo) showed a higher percentage of onomatopoeic names (67%) than the Mapuche. Using a phenomenological framework, we utilized the notion of “sonic incarnation” to discuss how a bird's voice does not necessarily guide the listener's eyes to it but, instead, the experience of hearing it is equated with “seeing” the bird. Onomatopoeic influence is a key root of the bird names used by different indigenous peoples of the world, including the Mapuche, and it may reflect onomatopoeia's great ability to capture immediacy in the landscape of human-bird encounters.

The demand for shark fins in Asiatic markets has resulted in excessive increases in shark catches, even for species that may be under protection or subject to management. As such, it has been necessary to develop and promote monitoring efforts for exploited species and taxonomic groups in order to improve fishing management strategies for elasmobranchs. Identifying species from landings is one of many fishing management problems because landed organisms have usually already been processed and are therefore incomplete, which makes identification problematic, impedes the generation of proper species records, and leads to poor fishery assessments. Tools that can correctly identify species, such as various molecular techniques, have become essential for accurate fishery assessments. In this study, 30 hammerhead trunks from artisanal fisheries from the southern portion of the Gulf of California were identified using multiplex PCR (17 Sphyrna lewini and 13 Sphyrna zygaena). The total fee to identify each trunk with this technique was ~ $3.80 and the procedure required 2 to 5 days. When compared with other widely-used methods, such as PCR-RFLP or barcoding, multiplex PCR is fast, efficient, low-cost, and easy to implement in a laboratory.
