An evaluation of relevancy ranking techniques used by internet search engines
Authors: Back Jonathan 
Published: December 2018

A relevancy ranking algorithm aims to sort retrieved
information resources so that those most likely to be
relevant are shown flrst. Experimentation reveals that
ranking techniques employed by lnternet search engines
do not facilitate effective retrieval. The methodology
adopted allows for a comparative evaluation of rival
search engines. Additionally, different search techniques
utilised by experiment participants were analysed.
Results show that if more than four search terms are
used,the accuracy of a relevancy ranking will increase.
Electronic theses: their production, management and use.
Authors: Copeland Susan 
Published: December 2018

This article presents the findings of a research visit to
the USA which was undertaken, in 1998, to assess the
production, management and use of electronic theses at
Virginia Polytechnic lnstitute and State University
(Virgin ia Tech.).The activities there, and the achievements
of the Networked Digital Library of Theses and
Dissertations (NDLTD) project, are contrasted with the
efforts of the UniversityTheses Online Group (UTOG)
in the UK. A year on from the visit, the electronic theses
at VirginiaTech. are being consulted more than before. ln
contrast, in the UK, interest still appears to be limited.
This article aims to demonstrate the value of producing
theses in electronic format, to discuss what is required in
order to achieve an acceptance of electronic theses,and
to encourage further work in this area.
Research activities in public libraries-findings from fieldwork: Facts and methods
Authors: Goodall Deborah 
Published: December 2018

Reports current research activities in public library
services drawing from a series of interviews with 20
chief librarians. Findings reinforce earlier perceptions
and findings about public library research activities. Of
particular concern is the fact that research activity and
method is largely confined to'simpler' issues of
operational service development and does not extend
to 'harder' research addressing the social and
economic impact of the service. To assess
trustworthiness and make best use of the data the
interview transcripts are analysed using three
techniques: initial data analysis by coding down,
dilemma analysis, and intensive analysis carried out
using the constant comparative method. Concludes
that the restricted research capacity within the public
library sector may endanger the realisation of its
strategic potential.
Towards curriculum 2.0: Library/information education for a Web 2.0 world
Authors: Bawden David 
Published: December 2018

This paper reports an international comparison of changes in library/information curricula, in response to the changing information environment in which graduates of such courses will work. It is based on a thematic analysis of five case-studies from Australia, Ireland, Lithuania, Slovenia and the United Kingdom.
Specifically, it describes responses to an increasing proportion of e-content and the impact of the communication and social networking features of Web 2.0, and Library 2.0. It examines both changes in curriculum content, and in methods of teaching and learning. The latter involves pedagogy adapting and changing in the same way as the professional environment, with a greater emphasis on e-learning, and use of Web 2.0 tools. Students therefore learn about the issues by making use of these tools and systems in their studies.
Specific issues arising from these case studies include: the best mode of introduction of Web 2.0 facilities, both as topics in the curriculum and as tools for teaching and learning; the set of topics to be covered; the relation between 'conventional' e-learning and Web 2.0, problems and difficulties arising. Examples of particular courses and course units are given.

BACKGROUND: The intranasal route is a minimally invasive method for rapidly delivering midazolam and fentanyl to provide short-term analgesia and sedation in infants. However, intranasal use of midazolam and fentanyl is not labeled for infants and safety data are sparse. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of intranasal midazolam and intranasal fentanyl in infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). METHODS: We retrospectively identified all infants receiving intranasal midazolam or fentanyl in the NICU from 2009 to 2015. We recorded indication for use and vital signs and determined the proportion of infants experiencing the following adverse events: death within 24 hours, hypotension, bradycardia, worsening respiratory status, and chest wall rigidity. Vital signs 4 hours before and after each dose were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. RESULTS: We identified 17 infants (gestational ages 23– 41 weeks) receiving 25 intranasal doses. None of the infants died or developed hypotension, bradycardia, or chest wall rigidity. Intranasal delivery was most commonly used for sedation during magnetic resonance imaging studies. Other indications include analgesia or sedation for retinopathy of prematurity surgery, intubation, and peripherally inserted central catheter placement. One infant receiving intranasal midazolam experienced worsening respiratory status. Vital signs before and after dosing were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS: Intranasal midazolam and fentanyl use in term and preterm infants appeared safe and well-tolerated in this small cohort of infants. Larger, prospective studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of intranasal midazolam and fentanyl use in infants are warranted.

Published: December 2018

Background Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic disease with immune-mediated pathogenesis which can be premalignant. Oral lichenoid dysplasia (OLD) is a precancerous process with lichenoid features which is frequently confused with OLP.Objective In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of toluidine blue (TB) administration before biopsy to detect the dysplastic changes in patients who were clinically diagnosed with OLP.Methods Thirty consecutive patients with oral lichenoid lesions whose clinical findings were consistent with OLP were included in the study. Demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients studied were recorded and clinical photos were taken before and after the administration of TB. Areas to be biopsied were determined according to the results of the TB staining. Histopathologically, all the specimens were evaluated in terms of the diagnostic features of OLP and the presence of dysplastic findings. Results The mean age of the 30 patients (21 females, 9 males) included in the study was 51.03 (26-70 years) and the median value of disease duration was 12.00 ± 67.23 months (2-360 months). Six patients (20.0%) had positive staining after application of TB. Histopathological examination revealed OLP findings in 17 patients (56.7%), OLP and dysplasia findings in nine patients (30.0%) and lichenoid dysplasia in four patients (13.3%). Dysplasia was detected in all of the lesions (six patients) which were stained blue with TB. The relationship between staining and dysplasia was significant (p&lt;0.05). OLP and dysplasia were observed in four of these six patients (66.7%), and lichenoid dysplasia was observed in the other two (33.3%). The relationship between presence of dysplasia and presence of mitosis was found statistically significant in patients with histopathological dysplasia (p&lt;0.05). When the presence of mitosis was evaluated in biopsies taken from the stained lesions, a statistically significant relation was found (p&lt;0.05).ConclusionsIn our study, it was observed that dysplasia was detected in all stained areas after the application of TB to clinically classical OLP patients, but there was no staining in some patients despite the presence of dysplasia. Therefore, the sensitivity of the application was 46%, specificity was 100%, positive predictive value was 100% and negative predictive value was 70.8%. TB application is a specific test to detect the dysplasia; however because of the low sensitivity in oral lichenoid lesions, another method is needed to increase the sensitivity.
Gravitational-wave Geodesy: A New Tool for Validating Detection of the Stochastic Gravitational-wave Background
Authors: Callister T. A. , Coughlin M. W. , Kanner J. B. 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
A valuable target for advanced gravitational-wave detectors is the stochastic gravitational-wave background. The stochastic background imparts a weak correlated signal into networks of gravitational-wave detectors, and so standard searches for the gravitational-wave background rely on measuring cross-correlations between pairs of widely separated detectors. Stochastic searches, however, can be affected by any other correlated effects that may also be present, including correlated frequency combs and magnetic Schumann resonances. As stochastic searches become sensitive to ever-weaker signals, it is increasingly important to develop methods to separate a true astrophysical signal from other spurious and/or terrestrial signals. Here, we describe a novel method to achieve this goal—gravitational-wave geodesy. Just as radio geodesy allows for the localization of radio telescopes, so too can observations of the gravitational-wave background be used to infer the positions and orientations of gravitational-wave detectors. By demanding that a true observation of the gravitational-wave background yield constraints that are consistent with the baseline’s known geometry, we demonstrate that we can successfully validate true observations of the gravitational-wave background while rejecting spurious signals due to correlated terrestrial effects.
Calibrating the James Webb Space Telescope Filters as Star Formation Rate Indicators

Published: December 2018

Abstract
We have calibrated the 6.5 m James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) mid-infrared (MIR) filters as star formation rate (SFR) indicators, using JWST photometry synthesized from Spitzer spectra of 49 low-redshift galaxies, which cover a wider luminosity range than most previous studies. We use Balmer-decrement-corrected Hα luminosity and synthesized MIR photometry to empirically calibrate the Spitzer, WISE, and JWST filters as SFR indicators. Our Spitzer and WISE calibrations are in good agreement with recent calibrations from the literature. While MIR luminosity may be directly proportional to SFR for high-luminosity galaxies, we find a power-law relationship between MIR luminosity and SFR for low-luminosity galaxies (

). We find that for galaxies with an Hα luminosity of

(corresponding to an SFR of

), the corresponding JWST MIR ν L

ν
luminosity is between 1040.50 and

. Power-law fits of JWST luminosity as a function of Hα luminosity have indices between 1.17 and 1.32. We find that the scatter in the JWST filter calibrations decreases with increasing wavelength from 0.39 to 0.20 dex, although F1000W is an exception where the scatter is just 0.24 dex.

Abstract. We investigate the optical properties of light-absorbing organic carbon
(brown carbon) from domestic wood combustion as a function of simulated
atmospheric aging. At shorter wavelengths (370–470 nm), light absorption by
brown carbon from primary organic aerosol (POA) and secondary organic
aerosol (SOA) formed during aging was around 10 % and 20 %,
respectively, of the total aerosol absorption (brown carbon plus black
carbon). The mass absorption cross section (MAC) determined for black carbon
(BC, 13.7 m2 g−1 at 370 nm, with geometric standard deviation GSD =1.1) was consistent with that
recommended by Bond et al. (2006). The corresponding MAC of POA
(5.5 m2 g−1; GSD =1.2) was higher than that of SOA
(2.4 m2 g−1; GSD =1.3) at 370 nm. However, SOA presents a
substantial mass fraction, with a measured average SOA ∕ POA mass ratio
after aging of ∼5 and therefore contributes significantly to the
overall light absorption, highlighting the importance of wood-combustion SOA
as a source of atmospheric brown carbon. The wavelength dependence of POA and
SOA light absorption between 370 and 660 nm is well described with
absorption Ångström exponents of 4.6 and 5.6, respectively.
UV-visible absorbance measurements of water and methanol-extracted OA were
also performed, showing that the majority of the light-absorbing OA is water
insoluble even after aging.
Validation of Clyde River SuperDARN radar velocity measurements with the RISR-C incoherent scatter radar
Authors: Koustov Alexander , Gillies Robert , Bankole Peter 
Published: December 2018

Abstract. The study considers simultaneous plasma velocity measurements in
the eastward direction carried out by the Clyde River (CLY) Super Dual
Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) high-frequency (HF) radar and Resolute Bay
(RB) incoherent scatter radar – Canada (RISR-C). The HF velocities are found
to be in reasonable agreement with RISR velocities up to magnitudes of
700–800 m s−1 while, for faster flows, the HF velocity magnitudes are
noticeably smaller. The eastward plasma flow component inferred from
SuperDARN convection maps (constructed for the area of joint measurements
with consideration of velocity data from all the radars of the network) shows
the effect of smaller HF velocities more notably. We show that the
differences in eastward velocities between the two instruments can be
significant and prolonged for observations of strongly sheared plasma flows.
Profile of teachers of Spanish as Second Language for Adult (non Literate) Immigrants
Authors: Sosinski Marcin 
Published: December 2018

This paper examines the profile of teachers of adult immigrant learners with low level of formal instruction. The data was collected in two on-line surveys filled out by teachers from Spain and from other countries; the analysis was conducted on the Spanish answers, followed by comparison with those of teachers from the other countries. The results reveal that among the Spanish teachers there are more volunteers, and that they have less experience than the rest of the respondents. In general, all respondents have received few hours of training and proportion of those surveyed are unaware of their students’ educational level. At the end the author argues that there is a need for training for teachers who work with this cohort of adult learners.
Educación por el Arte y Formación Docente: tensionar el mandato fundacional disciplinador para transformar la escuela
Authors: Grasso Mario 
Published: December 2018

El siguiente artículo propone reflexionar sobre los postulados teóricos de la Educación por el Arte y su articulación con las prácticas de enseñanza en la formación docente del conurbano sur de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Se sostiene que los futuros docentes han vivido escasas experiencias formativas relacionadas con la filosofía de la educación por el arte. Este dato se evidencia en sus biografías escolares y manifiesta la vigencia del origen homogeneizador de la escuela moderna.
En consecuencia, se apuesta a la transformación de sus mandatos fundacionales, en términos de cosificación del sujeto para la producción fabril.
Con tal fin, se describe la evolución de la Didáctica (destacando el movimiento contrahegemónico de la Escuela Nueva) y se teoriza especialmente sobre el carácter interpretativo y propositivo de esta ciencia en la actualidad.
En este marco, se reflexiona sobre el valor de los lenguajes artísticos y se invita a sumarlos al repertorio de los componentes didácticos a tener en cuenta a la hora de crear una situación de enseñanza promotora de aprendizaje significativo, contextualizado y estético.
Se presentan algunas experiencias a modo de ejemplo y como aporte al colectivo docente de nivel superior.

Listening in the Field
Authors: Bruyninckx Joeri 
Published: December 2018

The transformation of sound recording into a scientific technique in the study of birdsong, as biologists turned wildlife sounds into scientific objects.
Scientific observation and representation tend to be seen as exclusively visual affairs. But scientists have often drawn on sensory experiences other than the visual. Since the end of the nineteenth century, biologists have used a variety of techniques to register wildlife sounds. In this book, Joeri Bruyninckx describes the evolution of sound recording into a scientific technique for studying the songs and calls of wild birds and asks, what it means to listen to animal voices as a scientist.
The practice of recording birdsong took shape at the intersection of popular entertainment and field ornithology, turning recordings into objects of investigation and popular fascination. Shaped by the technologies and interests of amateur naturalism and music teaching, radio broadcasting and gramophone production, hobby electronics and communication engineering, birdsong recordings traveled back and forth between scientific and popular domains, to appear on gramophone recordings, radio broadcasts, and movie soundtracks.
Bruyninckx follows four technologies—the musical score, the electric microphone, the portable magnetic tape recorder, and the sound
spectrograph—through a cultural history of field recording and scientific listening. He chronicles a period when verbal descriptions, musical notations, and onomatopoeic syllables represented birdsong and shaped a community of listeners; later electric recordings struggled with notions of fidelity, realism, objectivity, and authenticity; scientists, early citizen scientists, and the recording industry negotiated recording exchange; and trained listeners complemented the visual authority of spectrographic laboratory analyses. This book reveals a scientific process fraught with conversions, between field and laboratory, sound and image, science and its various audiences.
