Decision Fatigue and Heuristic Analyst Forecasts
Authors: Levi Yaron , Hirshleifer David , Teoh Siew Hong , Lourie Ben
Published: July 2018

Psychological evidence indicates that decision quality declines after an extensive session of decision-making, a phenomenon known as decision fatigue. We study whether decision fatigue affects analysts’ judgments. Analysts cover multiple firms and often issue several forecasts in a single day. We find that forecast accuracy declines over the course of a day as the number of forecasts the analyst has already issued increases. Also consistent with decision fatigue, we find that the more forecasts an analyst issues, the higher the likelihood the analyst resorts to more heuristic decisions by herding more closely with the consensus forecast, by self-herding (i.e., reissuing their own previous outstanding forecasts), and by issuing a rounded forecast. Finally, we find that the stock market understands these effects and discounts for analyst decision fatigue.

Mit dem Schritt ins digitale Zeitalter werden in Forschungsprozessen zunehmend Daten in digitaler Form verarbeitet, die mit Hilfe von Software erzeugt, analysiert und dargestellt werden. Das Angebot an kommerziellen Lösungen stößt bei den Anforderungen aus der Forschung an ihre Grenzen und so wird immer öfters im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojekts Software entwickelt. In vielen Fällen sollen die entwickelten Programme nach Projektende weiter betrieben werden, da sie als Grundlage für weitere Forschung dienen bzw. werden die Ergebnisse in alternativer Form publiziert. Damit werden viele Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler vor neue Herausforderungen gestellt, die mit ihrer eigentlichen Aufgabe, dem Forschen, nur am Rande etwas zu tun haben. Softwareentwicklung ist nur eine von vielen weiteren Herausforderungen, die mit der zunehmenden Digitalisierung einhergehen. Dieser Artikel fokussiert sich auf den Entwicklungsprozess von Software unter Berücksichtigung der Nachhaltigkeit und den Aspekt der Archivierung. Er stellt unter anderem auch die Frage, ob und wie die Forschung von zentraler Stelle unterstützt werden kann und welche Rolle das Forschungsdatenmanagement dabei einnimmt.
Pengembangan Knowledge Management System Berbasis Knowledge Audit
Authors: Ramdani Panji Madya
Published: July 2018

Abstrak

Dasar dari sumber daya ekonomi saat ini bukan lagi berupa modal uang, sumber daya alam maupun tenaga kerja melainkan juga pengetahuan (knowledge). Pengetahuan sebagai intangible asset yang harus dikelola perusahaan menjadi paradigma baru dalam lingkungan bisnis sebagai pusat kekuatan dan keunggulan dalam bersaing. Namun masih banyak organisasi belum atau tidak mengetahui potensi pengetahuan yang dimiliki oleh karyawannya karena organisasi kesulitan dalam menangkap (capture) tacit knowledge. Lambatnya penyebaran pengetahuan disebabkan oleh terbatasnya ruang dan waktu. Transfer knowledge hanya menggunakan metode tatap muka, konsultasi secara langsung dengan atasan, dan briefing pagi (socialization-tacit totacit). Adapun Explicit knowledge hanya terdapat dalam bentuk berkas (hardcopy), dimana terdapat kesulitan dalam proses pencarian. Penelitian ini telah berhasil mempermudah transfer knowledge di dalam perusahaan melalui pengembangan knowledge management system berbasis knowledge audit dengan knowledge management processes sebagai standar pengembangan. Audit yang dihasilkan telah mampu mengidentifikasi kompetensi dan kapabilitas dari karyawan, serta mengoptimalisasi mekanisme knowledge management yang ada di organisasi.

Kata kunci: Tacit Knowledge, Explicit Knowledge, Knowledge Audit, Knowledge Management System.

Abstract

The basic economic resources now adays is no longer capital, natural resources, nor labor, but also knowledge. Knowledge as intangible asset, that need to be managed by organization became new paradigm in the business environment where knowledge is now considered to be central to organizational performance and integral to the attainment of a sustainable competitive advantage. Many organizations still do not realize the knowledges and experiences their employees had. It happens because the organizations have difficulties in detecting the tacit knowledge, thus the sharing of knowledge and experience did not run smoothly. If the employees had to share what they know then they do it by meeting face to face with their superior or share it in the morning briefing.Time and spaces are still the main problems in this case. Explicit knowledge only shared in form of a hardcopy archives, while there is also a problem in archiving files within the organization. This research has succeeded in easing the transfer of knowledge through knowledge management system with knowledge audit as a base and knowledge management process as a development standard. The audit result has the capability in identifying competence and capability of the workers, and also optimize the existing knowledge management mechanism within the organization.

Honours and (re)design of the curriculum: How to bridge the gap between honours and bachelor programmes
Authors: Riteco Annelies , Kleyn Irene de , Lamerichs Nicolle
Published: July 2018

Since 2016 the University of Applied Sciences Utrecht (Hogeschool Utrecht, HU) has been implementing a new HU Honours vision with value creation as the core element. Honours students realize value creation on several levels: personal growth and professional identity, and they deliver products or services that add value to professional practice and wider society. HU Honours education, which is accessible for all ambitious and talented students, offers five types of honours tracks. In order to bridge the gap between honours education and the bachelor programmes, new honours tracks are designed at the same time the regular courses are (re)designed. Honours is structurally embedded in the educational innovations and vice versa: honours is an excellent stimulus for curriculum (re)design because there are more innovative opportunities to set up learning and teaching in different ways. This integration of curriculum renewal and honours programme development has given a boost to new honours tracks and to talent development of all ambitious and talented students.

O bem-estar animal tem sido amplamente discutido, abordando as ações e efeitos no processo de criação, transporte até o abate, a fim de se adequar os meios de produção. No entanto, bem-estar é um assunto de ampla abrangência e que atualmente, adequa também as condições de trabalho das pessoas que atuam no setor agrícola. A segurança e a saúde dos trabalhadores é motivo de preocupação, uma vez que a forma como o indivíduo se sente ou como exerce as suas atividades, pode influenciar de forma negativa na produção animal. Diante dessa crescente preocupação, objetivou-se com esse trabalho avaliar os efeitos da tipologia das edificações e do sistema de produção de matrizeiros de frangos de corte sobre as condições de saúde, segurança e ergonomia dos trabalhadores envolvidos na atividade. De posse dos dados coletados, verificou-se que as atividades que exigem o carregamento de peso, principalmente quando realizada por mulheres, podem vir a prejudicar a coluna bem como outros membros corporais. Os demais fatores ergonômicos como concentração de gases, luz e ruído não tornaram o ambiente insalubre uma vez que as instalações são abertas favorecendo a ventilação natural e iluminação.Palavras-chave: ergonomia, produção de frangos, trabalho rural. HEALTH AND SAFETY OF WORKERS IN HARBORS OF BROILERS BREEDER ABSTRACT:Animal welfare has been widely discussed, addressing the actions and effects in the process of creation, transportation to slaughter, in order to suit the means of production. However, well-being is a matter of wide scope and currently, it also suits the working conditions of the people who work in the agricultural sector. The safety and health of workers is a matter of concern, since the way in which the individual feels or how he practices his activities may negatively influence animal production. Faced with this growing concern, this work aimed to evaluate the effects of typology of buildings and the system of production of broilers breeder on the health, safety and ergonomic conditions of workers involved in the activity. With the collected data, it was verified that the activities that require the weight load, especially when performed by women, can harm the spine as well as other body limbs. Other ergonomic factors such as concentration of gas, light and noise have not made the environment unhealthy since the facilities are opened favoring natural ventilation and lighting.Keywords: ergonomics, poultry production, rural work.

Published: July 2018

A substituição do Cerrado mato-grossense para práticas agrícolas e a dinâmica fenológica alteram os índices biofísicos da superfície como a temperatura da superfície (Tsup) e o índice de área foliar (IAF). Assim, o objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a variação do IAF e da Tsup por sensoriamento remoto em uma área de Cerrado no interior do estado de Mato Grosso. Imagens do sensor Thematic Mapper (TM) Landsat 5 foram utilizadas para estimar o IAF e a Tsup de uma área de Cerrado (CE), cana-de-açúcar (CA), pastagem (PA) e soja (SJ) em 2011. O IAF e a Tsup apresentaram correlação inversa. O IAF diminuiu e a Tsup aumentou ao longo da estação seca. Os maiores IAF e menores Tsup foram observados no CE, enquanto que os menores IAF e maiores Tsup foram observados na SJ. Os padrões temporais e espaciais do IAF e da Tsup na área de estudo ocorreram dirigidos pela precipitação, atividades antropogênicas e pelo próprio ciclo fenológico da vegetação.Palavras-chave: superfície do solo, antropização, aquecimento da superfície, sensoriamento remoto. INFLUENCE OF DEFORESTATION ON LEAF AREA INDEX AND SURFACE TEMPERATURE IN THE CERRADO OF MATO GROSSO ABSTRACT:The substitution of the Cerrado of Mato Grosso for agricultural practices and phenological dynamics alter the biophysical indexes of the surface such as surface temperature (Tsup) and leaf area index (LAI). Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the variation of LAI and Tsup by remote sensing in a Cerrado area in the state of Mato Grosso. The images of the Thematic Mapper (TM) Landsat 5 sensor were used to estimate the LAI and Tsup of an area of Cerrado (CE), sugarcane (CA), pasture (PA) and soybean (SJ) in 2011. The LAI and Tsup presented an inverse correlation. LAI declined and Tsup increased throughout the dry season. The higher LAI and lower Tsup were observed in the CE, while the lower LAI and higher Tsup were observed in SJ. The temporal and spatial patterns of LAI and Tsup in the study area were driven by precipitation, anthropogenic activities and by the phenological cycle of vegetation itself.Keywords: soil surface, anthropization, surface heating, remote sensing.

REGULAÇÃO DA ESTRUTURA DIAMÉTRICA DE UMA FLORESTA DE MIOMBO USANDO O MÉTODO DE LIOCOURT EM MOÇAMBIQUE Este trabalho teve como objetivo aplicar o método de De Liocourt na regulação da estrutura diamétrica de uma floresta de Miombo no distrito de Mocuba, na região central de Moçambique, a fim de subsidiar ações de regulação do corte de madeira e manejo. O estudo foi realizado em uma área de 4,0 ha, dividida em 16 parcelas de 50 x 50 m, onde foram mensuradas as variáveis CAP ≥ 31,5 cm e a altura total dos indivíduos, e distribuídos em classes de diâmetro. Foram registrados 2075 indivíduos, distribuídos em 41 espécies, 31 gêneros e 12 famílias. A Fabaceae foi a família de maior importância ecológica. A floresta apresentou uma densidade de 519 árvores por hectare e área basal de 27,48 m2.ha-1. O valor do quociente 'q' para a floresta foi de 1,48, indicando que as taxas de mortalidade e recrutamento não se encontram em equilíbrio. A regulação do corte possibilitou a retirada de 15 árvores por hectare no conjunto das classes de frequência, para um diâmetro mínimo de corte (DMC) de 40,0 cm com redução de 2,42 m².ha-1 de área basal, evitando-se assim a estagnação da floresta, bem como 2 árvores por hectare para um DMC de 50,0 cm com redução de 0,45 m².ha-1 de área basal.Palavras-chave: florística, fitossociologia, exploração florestal, manejo florestal. ABSTRACT:The aim of this work was to apply the De Liocourt quotient in diametric structure evaluation of the Miombo woodland in Mocuba district, in central Mozambique, in order to subsidize logging regulation actions and management. The study was carried out in an area of 4.0 ha, divided into 16 plots of 50 x 50 m, where the CBH ≥ 31.5 cm and total height of all trees were measured and distributed in diametric classes. There were 2075 individuals, distributed in 41 species, 31 genera and 12 families. Fabaceae was the most ecologically important family. The woodland had a density of 519 trees per hectare and a basal area of 27.48 m2.ha-1. The value of the 'q' quotient for the Miombo woodland was 1.48, indicating that mortality and recruitment rates are not in equilibrium. The logging regulation allowed the withdrawal of 15 trees per hectare in the frequency classes as a whole, to a minimum diameter cutting limit (MDC) of 40.0 cm with a reduction of 2.42 m².ha-1 of basal area, thus avoiding stagnation of woodland, as well as 2 trees per hectare for a MDC of 50.0 cm with a reduction of 0.45 m².ha-1 of basal area.Keywords: floristic, phytosociology, logging, forest management.
Osteopatia craniomandibular canina: Revisão
Authors: Coelho Nathália
Published: July 2018

The mandibular cranial osteopathy (MCO) is a degenerative, osteopetrotic, self-limiting, non-neoplastic bone disorder, with no sexual predilection, which rarely affects dogs in the pre-pubertal stage. The most predisposed breeds are the Terries featured in the West Highland Terrier. The clinical signs are variable depending on the altered bones and degree of involvement. Among the most common are fever, mouth opening pain, jaw enlargement, hyporexia and sialorrhea. The bones of the skull are the most damaged, especially the mandibular, temporomandibular joints and tympanic sounds. The diagnosis of this condition is based on the clinical, histopathological and radiographic findings. The most radiographic changes are increased radiopacity and volume of mandibles and tympanic sounds. Its treatment is symptomatic, having as its main point pain control and nutritional support. The prognosis is heterogeneous. Patients may experience complete remission of the condition in weeks or undergo euthanasia due to ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint.

A longitudinal survey of adult spine and peripheral nerve case entries during neurosurgery residency training
Authors: Agarwal Nitin , White Michael D. , Hamilton D. Kojo
Published: July 2018

OBJECTIVE

Currently, there is a lack of research assessing residents’ operative experience and caseload variability. The current study utilizes data from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) case log system to analyze national trends in neurosurgical residents’ exposure to adult spinal procedures.

METHODS

Prospectively populated ACGME resident case logs from 2013 to 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. The reported number of spinal procedures was compared to the ACGME minimum requirements for each surgical category pertaining to adult spine surgery. A linear regression analysis was conducted to identify changes in operative caseload by residents graduating during the study period, as well as a one-sample t-test using IBM SPSS software to compare the mean number of procedures in each surgical category to the ACGME required minimums.

RESULTS

A mean of 427.42 total spinal procedures were performed throughout residency training for each of the 877 residents graduating between 2013 and 2017. The mean number of procedures completed by graduating residents increased by 19.96 (r2 = 0.95) cases per year. The number of cases in every procedural subspecialty, besides peripheral nerve operations, significantly increased during this time. The two procedural categories with the largest changes were anterior and posterior cervical approaches for decompression/stabilization, which increased by 8.78% per year (r2 = 0.95) and 9.04% per year (r2 = 0.95), respectively. There was also a trend of increasing cases logged for lead resident surgeons and a decline in cases logged for senior resident surgeons. Residents’ mean caseloads during residency were found to be vastly greater than the ACGME required minimums: residents performed at least twice as many procedures as the required minimums in every surgical category.

CONCLUSIONS

Graduating neurosurgical residents reported increasing case volumes for adult spinal cases during this 5-year interval. An increase in logged cases for lead resident surgeons as opposed to senior resident surgeons indicates that residents were logging more cases in which they had a more critical role in the procedure. Moreover, the average resident was noted to perform more than twice the number of procedures required by the ACGME in every surgical category, indicating that neurosurgical residents are getting greater exposure to spine surgery than expected. Given the known correlation between case volume and improved surgical outcomes, this data demonstrates each graduating neurosurgical residency class experiences an augmented training in spine surgery.

Localized ankle plantarflexor and dorsiflexor fatigue following volitional exhaustion using the Bruce protocol
Authors: Kwon Yong Ung , Blaise Williams D.S.
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND:

There have been conflicting findings regarding the relationship between ankle muscle fatigue and a fatiguing run due to different selections of running protocol. Bruce protocol is strongly established as a maximum graded exercise test for volitional fatigue.

OBJECTIVE:

To determine if volitional exhaustion utilizing the Bruce protocol would result in localized ankle plantarflexor (PF) and dorsiflexor (DF) fatigue.

METHODS:

Twenty-three healthy individuals participated. Participants ran on a treadmill until they reached volitional exhaustion during performance of the Bruce protocol. Before and after volitional exhaustion, participants performed 3 maximum voluntary isometric contractions for both PF and DF with electromyography (EMG) assessing activation of the tibialis anterior, peroneus longus, and medial gastrocnemius muscles.

RESULTS:

Volitional exhaustion resulted in ankle PF fatigue (moment: [Formula: see text] 0.001), ankle DF fatigue (moment: [Formula: see text] 0.001), median frequency ([Formula: see text] 0.021) and mean amplitude ([Formula: see text] 0.001) of the tibialis anterior (TA).

CONCLUSIONS:

That the general fatigue induced by the Bruce protocol caused ankle PF and DF fatigue. Identifying and understanding the neuromuscular responses to volitional fatigue following running are helpful in not only improving the comfort and enjoyment of physical activities, but also in enhancing training and safety of injuries associated of these activities.
Differentiation and Distinction: On the Problem of Individuation from Scotus to Deleuze
Authors: Morejón Gil
Published: July 2018

In this paper I present an interpretation of Deleuze's concept of the virtual. I argue that this concept is best understood in relation to the problematic of individuation or differentiation, which Deleuze inherits from Duns Scotus. After analysing Scotus’ critique of Aristotelian or hylomorphic approaches to the problem of individuation, I turn to Deleuze's account of differentiation and his interpretation of the calculus in chapter 4 of Difference and Repetition. The paper seeks thereby to explicate Deleuze's dialectics or theory of Ideas, his approach to the principle of sufficient reason, and the concept of the virtual itself.
al-Tadāfuʿ in the Qur'an: Context and Historical and Social Meanings
Authors: Maymun Suhayla
Published: July 2018

Variety is the basis of diversity within communities, multiplicity in cultures, and differences between civilisations. The negative effects of this diversity can lead to conflict and war, while on a more positive note it may result in cooperation and unity. This study posits that it is the second, positive, notion––of cooperation––that is the intended import of the Qur'an in its use of tadāfuʿ. This paper considers all Qur'anic occurrences of tadāfuʿ, and clarifies the pivotal role humanity is assigned with regard to this concept and the positive types of tadāfuʿ.

The aim of this article is to explore the importance of the principle of tadāfuʿ and to illustrate how the Qur'an takes a middle path, and directs humankind towards flexibility, openness, and moderation, and promotes the cross fertilisation of cultures, and contact between civilisations. This challenges the reading of tadafuʿ as having connotations of ‘struggle’, with all its cultural and racial connotations, and dispels the logic of power on which they are based.

In this study, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model was developed in order to classify varieties belonging to grain species. Varieties of bread wheat, durum wheat, barley, oat and triticale were utilized. 11 physical properties of grains were determined for these varieties as follows: thousand kernel weight, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, kernel volume, surface area, bulk density, true density, porosity and colour parameters. It was found that these properties had been statistically significant for the varieties. An Artificial Neural Network was developed for classifying varieties. The structure of the ANN model developed was designed to have 11 inputs, 2 hidden and 2 output layers. Thousand kernel weight, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, kernel volume, surface area, bulk density, true density, porosity and colour were used as input parameters; and species and varieties as output parameters. While classifying the varieties by the ANN model developed, R2, RMSE and mean error were found to be 0.99, 0.000624 and 0.009%, respectively. In classifying the species, these values were found to be 0.99, 0.000184 and 0.001%, respectively. It has shown that all the results obtained from the ANN model had been in accordance with the real data.

Due to significant advances in computational biology, protein prediction, together with antigen and epitope design, have rapidly moved from conventional methods, based on experimental approaches, to in silico-based bioinformatics methods. In this context, we report a reverse vaccinology study that identified a panel of 104 candidate antigens from the Gram-negative bacterial pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei, which is responsible for the disease melioidosis. B. pseudomallei can cause fatal sepsis in endemic populations in the tropical regions of the world and treatment with antibiotics is mostly ineffective. With the aim of identifying potential vaccine candidates, we report the experimental validation of predicted antigen and type I fimbrial subunit, BPSL1626, which we show is able to recognize and bind human antibodies from the sera of Burkholderia infected patients and to stimulate T-lymphocytes in vitro. The prerequisite for a melioidosis vaccine, in fact, is that both antibody- and cell-mediated immune responses must be triggered. In order to reveal potential antigenic regions of the protein that may aid immunogen re-design, we also report the crystal structure of BPSL1626 at 1.9 Å resolution on which structure-based epitope predictions were based. Overall, our data suggest that BPSL1626 and three epitope regions here-identified can represent viable candidates as potential antigenic molecules.

Growing evidence supports the pivotal role played by oxidative stress in tissue injury development, thus resulting in several pathologies including cardiovascular, renal, neuropsychiatric, and neurodegenerative disorders, all characterized by an altered oxidative status. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and lipid peroxidation-derived reactive aldehydes including acrolein, malondialdehyde, and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, among others, are the main responsible for cellular and tissue damages occurring in redox-dependent processes. In this scenario, a link between the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and redox homeostasis impairment appears to be crucial. Anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol, the best characterized endocannabinoids, are able to modulate the activity of several antioxidant enzymes through targeting the cannabinoid receptors type 1 and 2 as well as additional receptors such as the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, and the orphan G protein-coupled receptors 18 and 55. Moreover, the endocannabinoids lipid analogues N-acylethanolamines showed to protect cell damage and death from reactive aldehydes-induced oxidative stress by restoring the intracellular oxidants-antioxidants balance. In this review, we will provide a better understanding of the main mechanisms triggered by the cross-talk between the oxidative stress and the ECS, focusing also on the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants as scavengers of reactive aldehydes and their toxic bioactive adducts.
Incorporating Grey Total Influence into Tolerance Rough Sets for Classification Problems
Authors: Hu Yi-Chung , Chiu Yu-Jing
Published: July 2018

Tolerance-rough-set-based classifiers (TRSCs) are known to operate effectively on real-valued attributes for classification problems. This involves creating a tolerance relation that is defined by a distance function to estimate proximity between any pair of patterns. To improve the classification performance of the TRSC, distance may not be an appropriate means of estimating similarity. As certain relations hold among the patterns, it is interesting to consider similarity from the perspective of these relations. Thus, this study uses grey relational analysis to identify direct influences by generating a total influence matrix to verify the interdependence among patterns. In particular, to maintain the balance between a direct and a total influence matrix, an aggregated influence matrix is proposed to form the basis for the proposed grey-total-influence-based tolerance rough set (GTI-TRS) for pattern classification. A real-valued genetic algorithm is designed to generate the grey tolerance class of a pattern to yield high classification accuracy. The results of experiments showed that the classification accuracy obtained by the proposed method was comparable to those obtained by other rough-set-based methods.
