Effective hyperparameter optimization using Nelder-Mead method in deep learning
Authors: Ozaki Yoshihiko , Yano Masaki , Onishi Masaki 
Published: November 2017

Abstract
In deep learning, deep neural network (DNN) hyperparameters can severely affect network performance. Currently, such hyperparameters are frequently optimized by several methods, such as Bayesian optimization and the covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy. However, it is difficult for non-experts to employ these methods. In this paper, we adapted the simpler coordinate-search and Nelder-Mead methods to optimize hyperparameters. Several hyperparameter optimization methods were compared by configuring DNNs for character recognition and age/gender classification. Numerical results demonstrated that the Nelder-Mead method outperforms the other methods and achieves state-of-the-art accuracy for age/gender classification.

Background: The insecticide susceptibility status ofAnopheles funestus,one of the main malaria vectors in the Afrotropical regions, remains under-studied due to the difficulty of working with this mosquito species. Collecting their larvae in natural breeding sites, rearing and maintaining them in normal laboratory conditions have been a difficult task. Forced-egg laying technique has been a very good tool to generate eggs from adult mosquitoes collected from the wild but rearing these eggs to obtain satisfying portion as adults has always been the problem. In this study, we optimized the development of mosquito species larvae under standard laboratory conditions for desired production of adult mosquitoes that can be useful for insecticide susceptibility tests.Methods: A forced-egg laying technique was used to obtain eggs from gravid femaleAnopheles funestuscollected from Kpome locality in Benin. Eggs were reared in three different water samples (water from the borehole,and two mineral water namely FIFA and Possotômè) and larvae were fed with TetraMin baby fish food. The physico-chemical parameters of the waters were investigated prior to use for egg incubation.Results:In contrast to mineral water that had no contamination, the borehole water source was contaminated with lead (2.5mg/L) and nitrate (118.8mg/L). Egg hatching rates ranged as 91.9 ± 4.4%, 89.1 ± 2.5% and 87.9 ± 2.6% in FIFA, Possotômè and borehole water respectively. High emergence of larvae to adult mosquitoes was recorded as in FIFA (74.3%) and Possotômè(79.5%) water. No adult mosquito was obtained from larvae reared in borehole water.Conclusions:This study gave insight on the water sources that could be good for rearing to mass produceAn. funestusin the laboratory. More analysis with other local mineral water sources in our environments could be considered in the future, hopefully giving better outputs.
Banning Foreign Pharmacies from Sponsored Search: The Online Consumer Response
Authors: Chesnes Matthew , Dai Weijia (Daisy) , Zhe Jin Ginger 
Published: November 2017

Increased competition from the Internet has raised concerns about the quality of prescription drugs sold online. Given the pressure from the Department of Justice, Google agreed to ban pharmacies not certified by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) from sponsored search listings. Using comScore click-through data originated from health-related queries, we study how the ban affects consumer search and click behavior in a difference-in-differences framework using the synthetic control method. We find that non-NABP-certified pharmacies received fewer clicks after the ban, and this effect is heterogeneous. In particular, pharmacies not certified by the NABP but certified by other sources (other-certified websites), experienced an increase in organic clicks that partially offset the loss in paid clicks after the ban. By contrast, pharmacies not certified by any certification agency experience much lower rates of substitution in organic clicks. These results suggest that the ban has increased the search cost for other-certified websites, but at least some consumers overcome the search cost by switching from sponsored to organic links. The lower substitution for uncertified websites may be explained by the rising consumer concerns about the quality of drugs sold on uncertified websites after the ban.

Abstract
The main purpose of the present study was to determine the associations between socioeconomic status (SES) and lifestyle factors. In this cross-sectional study, participants were 3,072 adolescents from two European countries of Lithuania and Serbia. The dependent variable was SES, while independent variables were gender, adherence to a Mediterranean diet, body-mass index, self-rated health, psychological distress, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and sedentary behaviour. The associations between dependent and independent variables were analysed by using logistic regression analysis. In univariate model, middle/high SES was associated with higher adherence to a Mediterranean diet (ptrend = 0.003), good self-rated health (OR 1.51; 95 % CI 1.12 to 2.05) and meeting recommendations of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (OR 2.09; 95 % CI 1.45 to 3.00), yet inversely associated with psychological distress (OR 0.81; 95 % CI 0.66 to 0.99) and sedentary behaviour (OR 0.80; 95 % CI 0.68 to 0.94). No associations were found between SES and bodymass index and gender. In multivariate model, the same associations occurred between middle/high SES and lifestyle factors. In conclusion, special strategies and policies, based on more affordable nutrition and participation in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, should be implemented within the system.

AbstractThe criteria and methods for goalkeeper selection are more strict and complex than those of field players. Founded on its principles, the present study tried to examine the strengths and weaknesses of selection process practised by Algerian coaches. Interpret by Algerian scientists in their subjectivity in evaluating the amount of body fat and its effect on physical performance. Seen it's built with the naked eye. Confirmed by FIFA in two categories normal vs overweight, they should work harder under these conditions. For this proposal, eight teams from the leagues of Oran, Algeria Championship second division were involved in the study. Their goalkeepers were classified into the following groups: total (GK = 28), Main goalkeeper (MG = 14) and replacement goalkeeper (RG = 14). Tested at the end of the outward phase by penalty kicks test, ‘T’ Drill Test, Ruler Drop Test (TR) and anthropometric parameters (BH, BMI, BFP, BW). Backed on the applied statistical where our total sample is categorised in overweight, as well as no statistically significant differences between the two groups in all the comparisons practised. Our results confirm the weaknesses of traditional methods. Admit by similar studies in their subjective in evaluating the amount of body fat and its effect on physical performance correlate to anthropometric measurement.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between gender and the educational grade on the one hand, and physical activity levels, motivation, self-identity, body dissatisfaction, the intention to be physically active and daily sitting time on the other, in a sample of Spanish high school adolescents. The sample consisted of 2087 Spanish students from the 3rd (n = 1141) and 4th grade (n = 946), both male (n = 1046) and female (n = 1041), ranging in age from 15 to 17 years old (M = 15.42; SD = .86). Students completed questionnaires to assess their levels of physical activity, self-identity, motivation, intention to be physically active and daily sitting time. The students’ perceptions of their body height and mass were also tested. With the exception of walking MET values, the results showed gender differences in the variables tested. Male participants showed higher intrinsic motivation and lower amotivation than female participants. Furthermore, male students revealed higher levels of physical activity than female students. Finally, the research concluded with the importance of promoting intrinsic reasons for physical activity in order to encourage positive consequences in high school students.

AbstractThe main goal of the study was to assess the effects of an intervention programme developed with soccer coaches, based on promoting strategies to optimise the satisfaction of the basic psychological needs of athletes. Eight soccer coaches, aged between 19 and 50 years (M = 32.5; SD = 14.34), participated in the study. They were selected intentionally (without academic or federative training) and divided equally into a control and an experimental group by random peer selection. Also, 109 soccer players, aged between 11 and 15 years (M = 13.78; SD = 1.38), divided into a control group (CG; n = 56) and an experimental group (EG; n = 53), participated in the experiment. The training programme (12 hours) was aimed to develop methodological and motivational strategies to promote autonomy, competence and relatedness need satisfaction among the players. The results showed that the participants in the EG decreased competence and relatedness control, while significantly increased (post-intervention) competence and relatedness needs satisfaction. Moreover, values for the EG did not decrease for autonomy, competence frustration and amotivation, while they increased for the sport commitment. Also, intrinsic motivation decreased in both groups (greater decrease in the CG). In conclusion, we can affirm the effectiveness of the training programme to create an environment of “bright side” motivation, and reduce thwarting styles, needs frustration and low self-determination levels.

Published: November 2017

Abstract
Based on the self-determination theory (Deci and Ryan, 1985, 2000), the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of exercise goal contents on exercise addiction, taking into account the mediating effects of passion for exercise. A total of 384 university students (284 men and 100 women; Mage = 20.31, SD = 3.10) completed a questionnaire that measured exercise frequency and intensity, exercise goal contents (e.g. intrinsic: social affiliation, health management, skill development; extrinsic: image and social recognition), passion for exercise (e.g. harmonious and obsessive), and exercise addiction. After controlling the exercise frequency and intensity effects, results showed that goal contents did not directly predict exercise addiction. However, mediation analysis showed that goal contents predicted addiction through passion for exercise. These results support a motivational sequence in which extrinsic versus intrinsic goals influence exercise addiction because such goals are positively associated with obsessive passion for exercise and negatively associated with harmonious passion.
A pécsi püspökvár (a középkori egyetem), az Aranyos Mária-kápolna és Vilmos püspök síremléke régészeti feltárásának és kutatásának eredményei
Authors: G. Sándor Mária 
Published: November 2017

The following paper discusses the history and the results of the archaeological research at Bishop’s Palace in Pécs during the second half of the 20th century. This research had particular importance in defining the location of the medieval university. The localization of the university building had already engaged the scientific groups concerning the history of the institute since the early 1900s. However, the exact location and layout of the building could only be determined by archaeological excavations. The exploration began in the eastern part of the castle, north of the cathedral, and a large room, the grand hall of the university (aula magna) emerged, together with a stone crest at the outdoor entrance, belonging the bishop, Wilhelm of Koppenbach, the founder of the first Hungarian university. Foreign parallels indicate that the Chapel of Aranyos Mária was supposed to serve as a college chapel. Also the grave of Bishop Wilhelm was found in the chapel, who died in 1374. During the excavation of the tomb a sculpture cemetery has been appeared including architectural memorials, sculptural remnants of the chapel and parts of the burial site of Bishop Wilhelm. The restoration procedures related to the excavation material began in the nineties, and followed by an exhibition in mid-2000 at the reconstructed building of the medieval university.

Perinatal Outcomes After Treatment With ADHD Medication During Pregnancy
Authors: Nörby Ulrika , Winbladh Birger , Källén Karin 
Published: November 2017

OBJECTIVES:
To analyze perinatal outcomes after maternal use of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) medication during pregnancy.

METHODS:
The study included singletons born between 2006 and 2014 in Sweden. Data on prescription drug use, pregnancies, deliveries, and the newborn infants’ health were obtained from the Swedish Medical Birth Register, the Prescribed Drug Register, and the Swedish Neonatal Quality Register. We compared infants exposed to ADHD medication during pregnancy with infants whose mothers never used these drugs and infants whose mothers used ADHD medication before or after pregnancy. Analyses were performed with logistic regression.

RESULTS:
Among 964 734 infants, 1591 (0.2%) were exposed to ADHD medication during pregnancy and 9475 (1.0%) had mothers treated before or after pregnancy. Exposure during pregnancy increased the risk for admission to a NICU compared with both no use and use before or after pregnancy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.5; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.3–1.7; and aOR, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.1–1.4, respectively). Infants exposed during pregnancy had more often central nervous system–related disorders (aOR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.1–3.1) and were more often moderately preterm (aOR, 1.3; 95% CI, 1.1–1.6) than nonexposed infants. There was no increased risk for congenital malformations or perinatal death.

CONCLUSIONS:
Treatment with ADHD medication during pregnancy was associated with a higher risk for neonatal morbidity, especially central nervous system–related disorders such as seizures. Because of large differences in background characteristics between treated women and controls, it is uncertain to what extent this can be explained by the ADHD medication per se.
Counseling on Sun Protection and Indoor Tanning
Authors: Balk Sophie J. , Gottschlich Elizabeth A. , Holman Dawn M. , Watson Meg 
Published: November 2017

BACKGROUND:
The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends clinical counseling for individuals ages 10 to 24 years to decrease skin cancer risk.

METHODS:
A national, random sample of US American Academy of Pediatrics members practicing primary care in 2002 (response rate 55%) and 2015 (response rate 43%). Surveys explored attitudes and experiences regarding sun protection counseling; indoor tanning questions were added in 2015. χ2 tests compared demographics and counseling responses across years, and multivariable logistic regression models examined counseling predictors.

RESULTS:
More pediatricians in 2015 (34%) than in 2002 (23%) reported discussing sun protection during recent summer months with ≥75% of patients. This pattern held across all patient age groups (each P &lt;.001). Female and suburban pediatricians counseled more; those in the South and West counseled less. More pediatricians in 2015 than in 2002 named time as a barrier. Sun protection ranked lowest among preventive topics in both years. In 2015, approximately one-third of pediatricians reported discussing indoor tanning at least once with 10 to 13 year-old patients; approximately half discussed this with older adolescents. Most (70%) did not know if their states had laws on minors’ indoor tanning access; those stating they knew whether a law existed counseled more.

CONCLUSIONS:
Although improved, sun protection counseling rates remain low. Indoor tanning counseling can be improved. Because early-life exposure to UV radiation increases risk and clinician counseling can positively impact prevention behaviors, pediatricians have an important role in skin cancer prevention; counseling may save lives. Time constraints remain a barrier.
Specyfika głównych ośrodków życia monastycznego w Galii w IV i V wieku
Authors: Pochwat Józef 
Published: November 2017

Postaciami kluczowymi dla monastycyzmu Galii w IV i V wieku są: św. Marcin z Tours, Sulpicjusz Sewer, Jan Kasjan, Romanus i Lupicynius. Monastycyzm galijski odsłania inne podejście niż zasady wypracowane na Wschodzie. W samej Galii wykazuje również pewne zróżnicowanie.Monastycyzm Wschodu charakteryzował się tym, że był zdecydowanie ascetyczno-anachorecki, w odróżnieniu od monastycyzmu galijskiego o nastawieniu apostolsko-ewangelizującym. Oba te podejścia wcale się nie wykluczają, wręcz przeciwnie, uczą zasady jedności w różnorodności. Pokazują, że w życiu monastycznym chodzi o praktykowanie życia oddanego Bogu w pełnym jego wymiarze, zarówno duchowym, jak i cielesnym. Jednakże sposób realizacji tych założeń nie musi być wszędzie jednakowy, na szczyt prowadzi bowiem wiele dróg.

The roles of art educationalists to realize the aims of the art education: Bauhaus case
Authors: KAVURAN Tamer , Dede Bayram 
Published: November 2017

AbstractTo achieve the objective of art education, (i.e. the training of art educationalists) workshops, technical equipment, and curriculum all play an important role. It is impossible to ascertain the objectives of art education if the instructor has insufficient knowledge. The reason why the Bauhaus school of design became globally recognized was due to its superior instructors. Among the instructors of the school, there were Johannes Itten, Josef Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Lyonel Feininger, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Oscar Schlemmer. They applied their revolutionary methods to the Bauhaus school. Due to these methods the Bauhaus model of teaching has been copied by other art schools; even after the Bauhaus school closed. In this study, the impact of the Bauhaus school and its instructor is examined. The individual contributions of its instructors to art education, as well as how they exemplify the model art educator are also explored in detail.

Published: November 2017

Core Ideas
WEPP rangeland model was evaluated using spatial erosion data for the first time.
WEPP and 137Cs methods predicted similar low soil erosion rates.
Spatial erosion patterns predicted by WEPP and 137Cs methods agreed well.
WEPP predicted soil erosion patterns well along rangeland hillslopes.
Lack of spatially distributed soil erosion data has greatly hampered the development and improvement of process‐based soil erosion models. The 137Cs method has been widely used to estimate soil erosion and redistribution but has seldom been used to evaluate process‐based erosion models. This study evaluated spatial erosion patterns predicted by the Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model using 137Cs‐estimated spatially distributed erosion data and quantified the effects of slope length on erosion along rangeland hillslopes. Eight rangeland hillslopes in midwestern Oklahoma were selected. The WEPP rangeland model was parameterized with observed soil and vegetation data. One downslope transect was sampled for each hillslope. At each sampling position, seven samples along a contour line were composited to represent the 137Cs inventory for that slope position to reduce random spatial variation. Both methods predicted low soil erosion rates, with the maximum erosion rates being near 2 Mg ha−1 yr−1. The erosion rates predicted by the two methods were significantly correlated at P = 0.01, and the medians were not significantly different; however, a paired t‐test showed that WEPP predicted significantly lower erosion rates than the 137Cs method. More importantly, the WEPP‐predicted soil erosion patterns in response to slope length agreed very well with those predicted by the 137Cs method. The loci of the maximum and minimum erosion rates were similar between the two methods for seven transects. The WEPP rangeland model predictions for the spatial patterns of relative soil erosion intensity along a hillslope compared favorably with 137Cs method estimates.
