Authors: Niekler Andreas , Blanck Sven , Kaulisch Marc
Published: April 2020

With an ever-increasing amount of data, it is essential for many systems that documents can be retrieved efficiently.The process of information retrieval can be supported by metadata enrichment of the documents. The aim of thiswork is to make scientific publications and project descriptions, consisting of titles, abstracts and bibliographicalreferences, easier to find. Therefore, we investigate text analytical methods such as keyword extraction algorithms(TFIDF, Log-Likelihood, RAKE, TAKE and KECNW) and classification approaches using a SVM withensembles of classifier chains (Web of Science and GEPRIS categories as taxonomies) and compare their quality.We present an altered an optimized keyword extraction algorithm and a supervised subject and keywordclassification approach which are, to our knowledge so far, one of the first automatic applications of this kind ininformetrics and scientific information retrieval.The most promising methods are employed and the extracted information is attached to the documents as metadata.These support a search query, using pseudo relevance feedback, to obtain further relevant search results and canalso be used to derive profiles for authors, faculties, etc. The concepts developed here will serve as a basis for theLeipzig University Research Information System.

Authors: Villalonga Mercedes B. , Sussman Rachel F. , Sekuler Robert
Published: April 2020

The growing use of vibrotactile signaling devices makes it important to understand the perceptual limits on vibrotactile information-processing. To promote that understanding, we carried out a pair of experiments on vibrotactile, auditory, and bimodal (synchronous vibrotactile and auditory) temporal acuity. On each trial, subjects experienced a set of standard intervals (400 ms each), followed by one interval of variable duration (400 ±1-80 ms). Intervals were demarcated by short vibrotactile, auditory, or bimodal pulses. Subjects categorized the timing of the last interval by describing the final pulse as either “early” or “late” relative to its predecessors. In Experiment One, each trial contained three isochronous standard intervals, followed by an interval of variable length. In Experiment Two, the number of isochronous standard intervals per trial varied, from one to four. Psychometric modeling revealed that vibrotactile stimulation produced poorer temporal discrimination than either auditory or bimodal stimulation. Moreover, auditory signals dominated bimodal sensitivity, and inter-individual differences in temporal discriminability were reduced with bimodal stimulation. Additionally, varying the number of isochronous intervals in a trial failed to improve temporal sensitivity in either modality, suggesting that memory played a key role in judgments of interval duration.
Fewer Generation Constraints Increase the Generation Effect for Item and Source Memory through Enhanced Relational Processing
Authors: McCurdy Matthew P. , Sklenar Allison , Frankenstein Andrea N. , Leshikar Eric D.
Published: April 2020

Memory is often better for information that is self-generated versus read (i.e., the generation effect). Theoretical work attributes the generation effect to two mechanisms: enhanced item-specific and relational processing (i.e., the two-factor theory). Recent work has demonstrated that the generation effect increases when generation tasks place lower, relative to higher, constraints on what participants can self-generate. This study examined whether the effects of generation constraint on memory might be attributable to either mechanism of the two-factor theory. Across three experiments, participants encoded word pairs in two generation conditions (lower- and higher-constraint) and a read control task, followed by a memory test for item memory and two context memory details (source and font color). The results of these experiments support the idea that lower-constraint generation increases the generation effect via enhanced relational processing, as measured through both recognition and cued recall tasks. Results further showed that lower-constraint generation improves context memory for conceptual context (source), but not perceptual context (color), suggesting that this enhanced relational processing may extend to conceptually related details of an item. Overall, these results provide more evidence that fewer generation constraints increase the generation effect and implicate enhanced relational processing as a mechanism for this improvement.
Political Depression? A Big-Data, Multi-Method Investigation of Americans’ Emotional Response to the Trump Presidency

Published: April 2020

Can a political loss in a participatory democracy lead to psychopathology? While some studies provide support for pathological levels of election-related distress in Liberal Americans, it has also been suggested that the public and professional discourse has increasingly over-generalized concepts of trauma and psychopathology. Here, we examine this debate in the context of the 2016 US presidential election, and investigate whether Liberal (vs. Conservative) Americans exhibited increased levels of depression in response to the Trump presidency. We observe that Liberals report being more depressed when asked directly about the effects of the election; however, more indirect measures show a short-lived or non-existent effect. We examined self-report measures of clinical depression with and without a reference to the election (Studies 1A & 1B), analyzed Twitter discourse and measured users’ levels of depression using a machine-learning-based model (Study 2), conducted time-series analysis of depression-related search behavior on Google (Study 3), examined the proportion of antidepressants consumption in Medicaid (Study 4), and analyzed daily survey data of hundreds of thousands of Americans (Study 5)—and saw that at the aggregate level, empirical data reject the accounts of “Trump Depression”. We discuss possible interpretations for the discrepancies between the direct and indirect measures. The current investigation demonstrates how big-data sources can provide an unprecedented view of the psychological consequences of political events, and sheds light on the complex relation between the political and the personal spheres.
CiwGAN and fiwGAN: Encoding information in acoustic data to model lexical learning with Generative Adversarial Networks
Authors: Begus Gasper
Published: April 2020

How can deep neural networks encode information that corresponds to words in human speech into raw acoustic data? This paper proposes two neural network architectures for modeling unsupervised lexical learning from raw acoustic inputs: ciwGAN (Categorical InfoWaveGAN) and fiwGAN (Featural InfoWaveGAN). These combine Deep Convolutional GAN architecture for audio data (WaveGAN; Donahue et al., 2019) with the information theoretic extension of GAN – InfoGAN (Chen et al., 2016) – and propose a new latent space structure that can model featural learning simultaneously with a higher level classification and allows for a very low-dimension vector representation of lexical items. In addition to the Generator and Discriminator networks, the architectures introduce a network that learns to retrieve latent codes from generated audio outputs. Lexical learning is thus modeled as emergent from an architecture that forces a deep neural network to output data such that unique information is retrievable from its acoustic outputs. The networks trained on lexical items from the TIMIT corpus learn to encode unique information corresponding to lexical items in the form of categorical variables in their latent space. By manipulating these variables, the network outputs specific lexical items. The network occasionally outputs innovative lexical items that violate training data, but are linguistically interpretable and highly informative for cognitive modeling and neural network interpretability. Innovative outputs suggest that phonetic and phonological representations learned by the network can be productively recombined and directly paralleled to productivity in human speech: a fiwGAN network trained on suit and dark outputs innovative start, even though it never saw start or even a [st] sequence in the training data. We also argue that setting latent featural codes to values well beyond training range results in almost categorical generation of prototypical lexical items and reveals underlying values of each latent code. Probing deep neural networks trained on well understood dependencies in speech bears implications for latent space interpretability and understanding how deep neural networks learn meaningful representations, as well as potential for unsupervised text-to-speech generation in the GAN framework.
Uncertainty increases curiosity, but decreases happiness
Authors: van Lieshout Lieke , de Lange Floris , Cools Roshan
Published: April 2020

You probably know what kind of things you are curious about, but can you also explain what it feels like to be curious? Previous studies have demonstrated that we are particularly curious when uncertainty is high and when information provides us with a substantial update of what we know. It is unclear, however, whether this drive to seek information (curiosity) is appetitive or aversive. Curiosity might correspond to an appetitive drive elicited by the state of uncertainty, because we like that state, or rather it might correspond to an aversive drive to reduce the state of uncertainty, because we don’t like it. To investigate this, we obtained both subjective valence (happiness) and curiosity ratings from subjects who performed a lottery task that elicits uncertainty-dependent curiosity. We replicated a strong main effect of outcome uncertainty on curiosity: Curiosity increased with outcome uncertainty, irrespective of whether the outcome represented a monetary gain or loss. By contrast, happiness decreased with higher outcome uncertainty. This indicates that people were more curious, but less happy about lotteries with higher outcome uncertainty. These findings raise the hypothesis, to be tested in future work, that curiosity reflects an aversive drive to reduce the unpleasant state of uncertainty.

Published: April 2020

Parents of children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities in the UK (n=241) were asked to describe the impact of COVID-19 on their own mental health and that of their child. An inductive content analysis of the data was undertaken. Both parents and children appear to be experiencing loss, worry and changes in mood and behaviour as a result of the rapid social changes that have occurred. Some parents reported feeling overwhelmed and described the impact of child understanding and awareness. Finally, a minority of parents reported that COVID-19 has had little impact on mental health in their family, or has even led to improvements. Implications for how to support these families in the immediate future are discussed.
Avoiding at all costs? An exploration of avoidance costs in a novel Virtual Reality procedure
Authors: Lemmens Anke , Smeets Tom , Beckers Tom , Dibbets Pauline
Published: April 2020

Approach-avoidance behaviours play a major role in the development and maintenance of anxiety disorders as repeated avoidance behaviours are assumed to prevent fear extinction. Approach-avoidance decisions (Conditioned Stimulus (CS)-avoidance and Unconditioned Stimulus (US)-avoidance) and their effect on fear extinction and renewal were investigated using a Virtual Reality fear conditioning procedure with ecologically relevant avoidance costs (temporal delay and physical effort). Participants had to choose between a safe (low approach incentive, no US) and a risky stimulus (high approach incentive, US in 75%). After differential fear acquisition and avoidance learning, participants were randomized to an Avoidance condition or No Avoidance condition during fear extinction. Fear extinction took place in either the original contingency learning context or in a new context and was followed up by a renewal test. Furthermore, the influence of trait anxiety, distress tolerance, and intolerance of uncertainty on approach-avoidance decisions was investigated. Exploratively, a second experiment with varying avoidance costs was conducted. Results were not indicative of renewal and no robust associations with the individual difference measures were found. However, results showed high (Study 1), but not low (Study 2), avoidance costs resulted in less avoidance behaviour. Even though there were no between-group differences, exploratory comparisons of avoiders and non-avoiders in both studies demonstrated that avoidance behaviours protected from extinction learning, resulting in the maintenance of retrospective US expectancies and a sustained preference for the safe stimulus. These findings provide insight in how avoidance behaviours maintain fear and how treatment might be improved by focusing on avoidance costs.
Mātauranga as knowledge, process and practice in Aotearoa New Zealand
Authors: Wehi Priscilla , Whaanga Hemi , Watene Krushil , Steeves Tammy
Published: April 2020

The future of Aotearoa New Zealand’s biodiversity is intimately linked to the health of Māori environmental knowledge, the ability to work within different philosophical traditions, and a willingness to work at the intersections of philosophy, cultural practice and science. Māori environmental philosophies and knowledge systems (mātauranga) are intricately rooted in and shaped by Pacific pathways, and shaped by the oral traditions that connect Pacific journeys, encounters with new landscapes, and the ongoing socio-environmental and political experiences of today. Ecological knowledge has a particularly important role within this mātauranga knowledge system, and as such is deeply embedded in tribal histories. The pairing of Māori environmental knowledge with a range of other scientific tools, models and analyses is a trend that will help provide beneficial indicators of population and ecosystem health, that will in turn feed the growth and continuance of mātauranga. Recent laws have pioneered co-management solutions that embody partnership with Māori tribal groups, and enable customary responsibilities. Ethical data management guidelines, that draw on a foundation of Māori philosophies, ethics and practices, are in development for biobanking and genetic or genomic research. Museum and herbarium data are also increasingly being linked to cultural knowledge and relationships. For practitioners, access is a prerequisite to practice; locking up the environment, and locking up collections in museums, acts to alienate Māori and reduces capacity to respond to both cultural prerogatives and national challenges. Scientists who work with Māori environmental knowledge or mātauranga more broadly are part of a shifting inter-disciplinary landscape of solution building at national and international scales, where considerations of intellectual property rights, ethical research partnerships, data sovereignty and community empowerment all contribute to best outcomes.
Power-Sharing Coalitions and Ethnic Armed Conflict
Authors: Bormann Nils-Christian , Steinwand Martin C.
Published: April 2020

Which multiethnic coalitions reduce the risk of violent conflict? We argue that government leaders form larger ruling coalitions as the uncertainty over violent threats from radical sub-groups increases. We formalize this argument in a novel multi-actor model. Our game-theoretic approach illustrates how ruling elites reduce the risk of rebellion by sharing power with internally fragmented ethnic groups, while only slightly increasing the risk of coups. Empirically, we rely on a novel selection estimator and data on ethnic coalitions to investigate the predictions from our theoretical model. Our findings show that the conflict-reducing effect of power sharing increases once we consider the endogeneity of coalition formation and conflict, and that power-sharing coalitions are most effective when including internally fragmented groups. Our study advances our understanding of when power sharing works in ethnically divided societies.

Redesign of artificial lighting with electricity saving aspects at the Putri Tujuh Ujung Batu Foundation aims to evaluate the design of artificial lighting systems in several rooms including the Inayah Islamic Elementary School Office, Putri Tujuh Orphanage Dormitory and Fastabiqul Khairat Mosque by calculating aspects of energy savings. Initial measurement results show that the lighting strength in each room does not meet the specified standards. The measurement results are evaluated using the zonal cavity method. It is recommended that the type of lamps used are 2 Philips LED 27 Watt lamps and 33 Philips LED 33 Watt lamps. Calculations with this method are simulated using the DiaLux Evo V.8.2 software which displays a three-dimensional image along with the strength of the lighting in each room. From the simulation results it was found that the use of pure white paint coated walls increases the lighting strength. The percentage of Electricity savings for Inayah Islamic Elementary School office space was 31.25%, Putri Tujuh Orphanage Dormitory was 61.64% and the Fastabiqul Khairat Mosque was 7.11% when compared to the use of Hannochs lamps.

Ritualisasi Kesenian Barong dalam Estetika Budaya: Studi Eksploratif Komunikasi Intra Personal Masyarakat Kota Beribadat
Authors: Djaya Tika Ristia
Published: April 2020

The purpose of this research is to find out how barong performers perform rituals, people's responses to rituals performed by barong players and the effect of rituals on the personal behavior of barong singers in Kencono in Kendal, Central Java. This study uses a qualitative method with an exploratory approach. The results of the study showed that the rituals performed by barong players included lek-lekan at night before the performance and accompanied by recitation, using offerings such as market snacks, bananas, flowers and eggs. Modern society interprets the offerings as art in culture, not the flow of beliefs that are believed to be guidelines for the belief in their lives. The ritual does not cause a negative influence on the barong player but instead increases devotion to God Almighty. Singo Kencono's barong art was formed to reflect the culture even though there have been many changes in accordance with the times but it still does not eliminate the original culture, other than that Singo Kencono's barong art was formed and played to entertain the public.
Makna Budaya pada Unsur-unsur Paralel dalam Tutur Adat Takanab
Authors: Nesi Antonius , Tube Bernardus
Published: April 2020

This study aims to examine the cultural significance of parallel elements in Takanab customary speech. Takanab customary speech, in fact, is one manifestation of ritual communication in the Dawan community in Timor, East Nusa Tenggara. This type of traditional speech is unique because in it elements of language are presented in pairs (parallel), both between one word with another word in one line or between one line with another line in one stanza. Data collection is done by using the method of listening (linguistics) and ethnographic conversation (communication ethnography). Both methods are applied through record and note techniques. The data analysis method of this research is the extralingual equivalent method. Data analysis technique used is contextual analysis technique. Based on the data analysis, the results show that the cultural meaning in parallel lines in the Takanab traditional speech is the performance of ritual communication in the Dawan community environment which contains mutual cultural significance, socio-historical cultural meaning, cultural significance of religious life appreciation, and cultural meaning of reconciliation. The most parallel cultural meaning with the Takanab customary speech is the meaning of mutual cooperation and the cultural meaning of living religious life (religiosity).

The base to determine the coal layers hazardous characteristics are: average reflectance of vitrinite, presence of some components in organic matter (С0, О0, Н0, N0), alteration of moisture and mineral impurities content. For these classificatory parameters, their quantitative assessment is available in the whole multiplicity of coals metamorphic transformation. The specific electrical resistivity logarithm and other proxy parameters may serve as additional classificatory parameters to reveal any hazardous characteristics of anthracites after grounding their using in some ranges of metamorphism series. It has been established that the existing wide range of vitrinite reflectance alteration for anthracites specifies significant alterations in the fossil fuel structure and properties. In their process of metamorphism, these peculiarities of anthracite alterations have almost not been classificatory established by their genetic and process parameters.

This study provides an understanding of Otherness concept  in contemporary social and cultural thought. It tries to delves on the many histories consumed by the Malaysian publics. It is based on the premised that historical knowledge of the nation is ethnicized. This study is aware that there is no official history of the nation. What has come to be known as the nation’s history evolved over space and has been accepted currently as mainstream history. By combining the fields of postcolonial theory and culture studies, it uses a theoretical framework that attaches contemporary cultural debates regarding the representation discourse with the colonial stereotypes and racialized imageries. Through the application of qualitative content analysis and quantitative analysis,  the study strives to make a theoretical contribution and adding to the body of the knowledge. This study deduce with a review of different types of racial otherness in Sarawak, by highlighting Orientalism as a form of persistent that has been maintained by colonial binaries throughout the history of Malaysia.
Time consumption in calculations of the hydraulic and geometrical tortuosity in granular beds

Published: April 2020

Tortuosity is one of the most elusive parameters of porous media due to its subjective estimation. Here, we compare two approaches for obtaining the tortuosity in granular porous media to investigate their capabilities and limitations. First, we determine the hydraulic tortuosity based on the calculated components of the velocity field obtained from flow simulations using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). Second, we directly determine the geometric tortuosity by making use of the Path Tracking Method (PTM) which only requires the geometric properties of the porous medium. In both cases, we apply the same geometrical structure which is a virtually generated 3D granular bed using the discrete element method consisting of 50 particles. Our results show that the direct PTM is much faster and more precise than the indirect approach based on the calculated velocity field. Therefore, PTM may provide a tool for calculating tortuosity for large 3D granular systems where indirect methods are limited due to the required computational power and time. While LBM considers various routes across the porous media implicitly, PTM identifies them explicitly. As a result, PTM requires a statistical post-processing. As an advantage, this can provide further information than just domain scale average values.
Reimagining Democracy through Syria’s Wartime Sharia Committees
Authors: LeBlanc Emma Findlen
Published: April 2020

This article examines Syrians’ narratives about the network of Sharia Committees (Hay’āt al-Sharia) that emerged as the most pervasive and popular legal project during the ongoing civil war. Many Syrians formerly excluded from political power, especially working-class Sunnis, envision the Sharia Committees as a revolutionary space for realising self-determination, where sharia is articulated as a democratic legal process embedded in its ostensibly inherent pluralism, flexibility, anti-authoritarianism and conception of justice as reconciliation and public good. By reviving a historically recurrent vision of sharia as radical democratic practice, Syrians attempt to extricate sharia from its entanglements with efforts to govern. The Sharia Committees thus represent a creative effort to reclaim democracy from state control while challenging rigid, rule-oriented understandings of sharia.
Rhyolite ignimbrite boulders and cobbles in the Middle Jurassic Carmel Formation of Utah and Arizona—age, composition, transport, and stratigraphic setting

Published: April 2020

A stratigraphic layer containing rhyolite cobbles and boulders in the Middle Jurassic Carmel Formation of southern Utah represents a singular, unusual event in the otherwise low-energy sedimentation of this formation. A laser-fusion, single-crystal 40Ar/39Ar age of 171.73 ± 0.19 Ma obtained from sanidine in one of the clasts is about 8 m.y. older than a zircon U-Pb age obtained on a fallout tuff from the sediments surrounding the clasts (163.9 ± ~3.3 Ma). The volcanic clasts are poorly-welded rhyolite ignimbrites that may have been deposited as much as 200 km from the eruptive center, perhaps along pre-existing valleys. The tuff deposits then remained in place for several million years during which time they were subjected to weathering, alteration, and perhaps topographic inversion, creating mesas capped with tuff underlain by soft Middle Jurassic silt and mud. Triggered by unusual rainfall or earthquakes, debris flows carried the clasts a few 10s of kilometers from their outcrops to the depositional site. Earlier work proposed that the Middle Jurassic arc was a low-standing, arc-graben. If this was the case, then the tectonic setting was likely similar to the modern Central American arc in the vicinity of Nicaragua where tuffs erupted from a low-standing arc deposited onto an adjacent highland and were then eroded by streams flowing to the east onto a fluvial plain that is near the sea.
Core Ethical Values of Character Education Based on Sundanese Culture Value
Authors: Fajrussalam Hisny , Hasanah Aan
Published: April 2020

This paper is motivated by the moral decadence that occurs in West Java as a Sundanese society. This paper intends to re-explore ethical values that should be the basis of Sundanese people's lives in West Java. This research uses qualitative. Data taken from the author's observational that are felt and experienced in everyday life. Research shows that education takes an important role in efforts to foster a moral attitude of society. Education in question is character education based on Sundanese cultural values. So hopefully the community can become an identity that always holds the wisdom of a good Sundanese culture. Some ethical values of Sundanese culture that can be found are welfare, health, care for the environment, moderate, hard work, discipline, politeness, honesty, upholding the truth, mutual cooperation, social solidarity, positive thinking, mature calculation, education, gender management, preservation and preservation Sundanese culture. The values of Sundanese culture can be classified into 2 (two), namely prosperity/welfare and peace/goodness that are all reflected in outlook on life, oral traditions, language, and pro-social behavior. These values are very relevant to the essential value of the Koran. Based on the values inherent in the Sundanese community, it should be able to create a climate that brings the community to Islamic values. Thus, we will go to the society that Islam aspires for, namely a society where every aspect of life breathes religious values.

IMIQUIMOD - A TOLL LIKE RECEPTOR 7 AGONIST - IS AN IDEAL OPTION FOR MANAGEMENT OF COVID 19
Authors: Poulas Konstantinos
Published: April 2020

According to numerous recent publications, the COVID-19 patients have lymphopenia, higher infection-related biomarkers and several elevated inflammatory cytokines (i.e. tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin IL-2R and IL-6). The total number of B cells, T cells and NK cells are significantly decreased. RNA viruses, SARS-CoV-2 included, hit the innate immune system in order to cause infection, through TLRs 3, 7 and 8. Imiquimod is an immune-stimulator that activates TLR 7 and can be used to enhance the innate and adaptive immunity. Preclinical and clinical trials are proposed.
