Advancing the practice of regional transportation equity analysis: a San Francisco bay area case study
Authors: Bills Tierra S. 
Published: November 2022

AbstractAs the transportation industry continues to evolve, it is urgent that we develop and implement methods for clearly evaluating the range of transportation engineering, planning, and policy impacts experienced by various population segments. While theories of transportation equity have advanced over the past decade, such advancements outpace existing methods for evaluating the fairness of large-scale transportation investments for disadvantaged communities. In this study, a regional activity-based travel model for the Bay Area, California is used to perform an equity analysis of two of the region’s transportation and land-use planning scenarios. Equity outcomes are tested relative to three equity standards: Equality, Proportionality, and Rawlsian justice. The primary objective is to demonstrate the usefulness of a full-scale activity-based travel model for regional transportation equity analysis. We demonstrate that fine-grained distributional measures play an important role in examining the individual and household-level impacts of regional transportation scenarios, and can complement existing Environmental Justice assessments and equity analyses by helping to explain underlying reasons for average group impacts. Distributional measures can further reveal harmful cases when disadvantaged groups are most likely to experience the disbenefits of the transportation scenarios. Yet, each type of measures in isolation does not tell the complete story of which planning scenario is likely to deliver more equitable outcomes. Finally, we demonstrate the significance of applying equity standards for ranking planning scenarios, and we find that the ranking of scenarios will vary according to the equity standard, as well as how associated evaluation criteria are defined.
Fasting during cancer treatment: a systematic review
Authors: Drexler U. , Dörfler J. , von Grundherr J. , Erickson N. , Hübner J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background
Clinical data on the modern topic fasting among cancer patients are rare. This review aimed to summarise published clinical data on fasting and its effects on patients undergoing chemotherapy and therefore to give some directions in advising patients with the desire to fast.

Method
A systematic search was conducted searching five electronic databases (Embase, Cochrane, PsychInfo, CINAHL and Medline) to find studies concerning the use, effectiveness and potential harm of fasting during therapy on cancer patients. The main endpoints were quality of life, side effects and toxicities of the fasting intervention.

Results
The search results totaled 3983 hits. After systematic sorting according to standardised pre-defined criteria, nine publications which covered eight studies with 379 patients were included in this systematic review. The majority of the patients included were diagnosed with breast- and gynaecological cancers. Fasting duration and timepoints ranged significantly (24–140 h before, and on the day of, chemotherapy to 56 h after chemotherapy). In one study patients were fasting before cancer surgery. The studies were mostly low to moderate quality and reported heterogeneous results. Overall, the studies were insufficiently powered to detect significant effects on the predefined endpoints.

Conclusion
Fasting for short periods does not have any beneficial effect on the quality of life of cancer patients during treatment. Evidence on fasting regimes reducing side effects and toxicities of chemotherapy is missing. In contrast, as the negative effects of unintentional weight loss are known to impact clinical outcomes severely, fasting is not indicated in this context.
Divine Darkness and Legal Darkness: Apophasis, Cataphasis and the Making of Legal Cultures of the First Millennium
Authors: Markov Simlen , White Rebecca , Petkoff Peter 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe article explores the long lost synthesis between apophatic and cataphatic theological strategies and early legal systematizations which shaped the Christian, Jewish and Islamic legal collections in the twelfth century. It argues that the theological possibilities to achieve Divine knowledge have reached out to all normative forms of human existence including law. It focuses specifically on a Christian context where imagining the law involves complex scales of cataphasis and apophasis and parallels other normative forms such as ritual and ascetic practices. The text only hints that parallel trends appear via very different routes but in a very similar ways in the Jewish and the Islamic legal projects and proposes that a comparative interreligious study of the twelfth century legal collections and their hermeneutic strategies is long overdue and critically important.

AbstractThis paper discusses transformative research in a community of practice, it is written in the form of a metalogue on our progress to date This iterative dialogue based on face to face meetings and regular virtual meetings. Together we illustrate and map the journey of developing the pathways to wellbeing software into story pathways to support a green circular economy. The metalogue enables weaving together the experiences and diverse ways of knowing whilst we explore the environment of a problem together we builds on the work of Gregory Bateson and his daughter Nora Bateson as well as the wisdom of Indigenous sages and scholars who emphasise the importance of strengthening relationships (in our fields of influence) as the route to human and more than human wellbeing. The research paper is one of several papers which will explore ways to enable participatory design and decision making through an online community of practice. Our “boundary” that we are setting in the paper focused around the building of relationships in which we are involved and which we are expanding (through a myriad of connections and networks) to build circular economic practices in Venda, specifically in relation to protecting sacred sites and being responsive to Mupo. The first author has a website https://www.wirasoftfoundtion.org/en_GB/web/biac-sig/home on which some ideas on circular economies are expressed. Our hope is that the small pilot can be used to demonstrate a way in which community education can be linked with social enterprises that support earning and learning together in ways that foster social and environmental justice.

AbstractThe dynamics and evolution of Venus’ mantle are of first-order relevance for the origin and modification of the tectonic and volcanic structures we observe on Venus today. Solid-state convection in the mantle induces stresses into the lithosphere and crust that drive deformation leading to tectonic signatures. Thermal coupling of the mantle with the atmosphere and the core leads to a distinct structure with substantial lateral heterogeneity, thermally and compositionally. These processes ultimately shape Venus’ tectonic regime and provide the framework to interpret surface observations made on Venus, such as gravity and topography. Tectonic and convective processes are continuously changing through geological time, largely driven by the long-term thermal and compositional evolution of Venus’ mantle. To date, no consensus has been reached on the geodynamic regime Venus’ mantle is presently in, mostly because observational data remains fragmentary. In contrast to Earth, Venus’ mantle does not support the existence of continuous plate tectonics on its surface. However, the planet’s surface signature substantially deviates from those of tectonically largely inactive bodies, such as Mars, Mercury, or the Moon. This work reviews the current state of knowledge of Venus’ mantle dynamics and evolution through time, focussing on a dynamic system perspective. Available observations to constrain the deep interior are evaluated and their insufficiency to pin down Venus’ evolutionary path is emphasised. Future missions will likely revive the discussion of these open issues and boost our current understanding by filling current data gaps; some promising avenues are discussed in this chapter.
Perspektiven der Landesinstitute zur Steuerung digitalisierungsbezogener Professionalisierung von Schulleitungen zwischen Erwartung und Unterstützung: „Aber wenn er nicht ‚Piep‘ sagt, dann kommen wir nicht.“
Authors: Kruse Christoph , Grigoleit Ella , Tulowitzki Pierre 
Published: November 2022

ZusammenfassungIn diesem Artikel der Zeitschrift Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation. werden auf Basis von Daten aus einer Interviewstudie die Perspektiven von Landesinstituten für Schulen (LiS) auf die Schnittstelle zur Schulleitung im Rahmen digitalisierungsbezogener Schulentwicklung analysiert. Die LiS verantworten in diesem Kontext bedeutsame Professionalisierungsmaßnahmen für Schulleitungen. In der Analyseperspektive der Educational Governance werden die LiS bzgl. der Schnittstelle in einen doppelten Fokus genommen: Zum einen stellt sich die Herausforderung einer gelingenden Passung von Qualifizierungsmaßnahmen an der Schnittstelle von LiS und Schulleitung (sowohl inhaltlich als auch organisatorisch), sodass schulische Führungskräfte in ihrer digitalisierungsbezogenen Kompetenzentwicklung effektiv unterstützt werden können. Zum anderen kann diese Schnittstelle mit Fokus auf die Steuerung und Implementation gelingender digitalisierungsbezogener Schulentwicklung innerhalb des Bildungssystems analysiert werden. Das Ziel der Studie liegt darin, Relevanzsetzungen (im Sinne von Handlungslogiken) der LiS in der Gestaltung der Professionalisierungsangebote zu identifizieren und auf die Herstellung von Passung an der Schnittstelle (im Sinne gelingender Handlungskoordination) zu diskutieren. Es zeigt sich, dass die Handlungslogik der LiS u. a. von Steuerungsimpulsen des übergeordneten Ministeriums, aber maßgeblich auch von normativen Erwartungen sowie Anpassungsstrategien an die (wahrgenommenen) Handlungslogiken der Schulleitungen beeinflusst ist. Für die Steuerung und Handlungskoordination kommt insofern nicht nur (unilateral) den LiS, sondern (wechselseitig) auch der Schulleitung eine zentrale Bedeutung für die Gestaltung und potenzielle Wirkung der digitalisierungsbezogenen Professionalisierungsangebote zu. Hieran anschließende Probleme, Herausforderungen und Implikationen für die Forschung und (Steuerung der) Praxis werden diskutiert.
Assessing the applicability of cerebrospinal fluid collected from the spinal cord for the determination of ethyl alcohol in post-mortem toxicology
Authors: Wachholz Paulina , Skowronek Rafał , Pawlas Natalia 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis paper presents the results of a study on the applicability of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collected from the spinal canal in the post-mortem determination of ethyl alcohol. The present study reviewed data of autopsy cases (n = 45), in which ethyl alcohol was detected in CSF using gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (HS-GC-FID), to investigate ethyl alcohol concentrations in CSF, compared with blood. As a result of statistical analysis of the obtained data, a high positive correlation was found between blood ethanol concentration and cerebrospinal fluid collected from the spinal canal ethanol concentration. The Pearson correlation coefficient was statistically highly significant (p < 0.001) (r = 0.9503). The data obtained allowed us to conclude that cerebrospinal fluid collected from the spinal canal can be collected during an autopsy as an alternative biological specimen to assess the ethanol content. Cerebrospinal fluid collected from the spinal canal can corroborate and lend credibility to the results obtained for blood and, in special cases, when blood is drawn from putrefied bodies and may even be a superior specimen to blood for assessing ethyl alcohol intoxication status.

Schlussfolgerung
Es ist eine weitere konzeptuelle Klärung und entsprechende Konsentierung der definierenden Merkmale der unterschiedlichen Dimensionen des CHN notwendig, um CHN sowohl auf grundlegendem als auch auf erweitertem Niveau langfristig für den deutschsprachigen Raum etablieren zu können.
Culture of integrity – institutional response to integrity during COVID19
Authors: Khan Zeenath Reza , Priya Joice , Tuffnell Christopher 
Published: November 2022

AbstractCOVID19 forced most education institutions to move their education provisions to digital platforms almost overnight to ensure continued learning for students. Variable factors relating to educational technologies, ease of use, accessibility and funding meant the process was more challenging for some than others. However even the most agile and well-prepared educational institutions faced a hurdle during remote learning when it came to integrity in assessing students online.This article tracks the efforts by one western university in a Middle Eastern country, tracing back the systemic changes, evolution of policies and procedures that culminated into a campus-wide response that helped redesign assessments, increased awareness among faculty towards recognising and reporting cases, and the implementation of integrity pledges. It is believed this article presents a well-rounded case study as a good practice guide for other tertiary institutions on the importance of building a culture of integrity prior to any crisis, that can help whether such situations need to arrive in the future.
Comparing autoencoder-based approaches for anomaly detection in highway driving scenario images
Authors: Mosin Vasilii , Staron Miroslaw , Tarakanov Yury , Durisic Darko 
Published: November 2022

AbstractAutoencoder-based anomaly detection approaches can be used for precluding scope compliance failures of the automotive perception. However, the applicability of these approaches for the automotive domain should be thoroughly investigated. We study the capability of two autoencoder-based approaches using reconstruction errors and bottleneck-values for detecting semantic anomalies in automotive images. As a use-case, we consider a specific highway driving scenario identifying if there are any vehicles in the field of view of a front-looking camera. We conduct a series of experiments with two simulated driving scenario datasets and measure anomaly detection performance for different cases. We systematically test different autoencoders and training parameters, as well as the influence of image colors. We show that the autoencoder-based approaches demonstrate promising results for detecting semantic anomalies in highway driving scenario images in some cases. However, we also observe the variability of anomaly detection performance between different experiments. The autoencoder-based approaches are capable of detecting semantic anomalies in highway driving scenario images to some extent. However, further research with other use-cases and real datasets is needed before they can be safely applied in the automotive domain.
Land use impacts of implementing a bus rapid transit system: case of Beirut southern corridor

Published: November 2022

AbstractThis study investigates and forecasts the effects of implementing a newly proposed Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system in Lebanon on the urban land use evolution between the years 2019 and 2049. It contributes to the emerging scientific literature by proposing a technique intended to identify the potential urban land use impacts of BRT. The identification of these impacts as part of the feasibility study for the BRT is considered important for policymakers, local officials, and urban planners. The impacts are identified by conducting the Analytical Hierarchy Process, based on data collected via survey and interviews with real estate experts. The outcomes show that implementing a BRT service complemented with bus feeder services will: (i) reshape the urban fabric, in proximity to BRT routes and particularly around the stations, by triggering the Transit-Oriented Development and increasing the attractivity of urban development by 6 to 9% according to the distance from BRT route; and (ii) increase the attractivity of urban development projects by 11% in areas distant from the highway if these areas are characterized by high coverage of bus feeder services, low possibility of an increase in estate prices, and medium to high public acceptance of the proposed BRT.
Strong Belief is Ordinary
Authors: Clarke Roger 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIn an influential recent paper, Hawthorne, Rothschild, and Spectre (“HRS”) argue that belief is weak. More precisely: they argue that the referent of believe in ordinary language is much weaker than epistemologists usually suppose; that one needs very little evidence to be entitled to believe a proposition in this sense; and that the referent of believe in ordinary language just is the ordinary concept of belief. I argue here to the contrary. HRS identify two alleged tests of weakness – the neg-raising and weak upper bounds tests, as I call them – which they claim believe and think pass. But I identify several other expressions in ordinary English for attributing belief, all of which fail both tests. Therefore, even if HRS are correct that believe and think refer to a weak attitude, it does not follow that the ordinary concept of belief is weak. I conclude by raising some problems for the accounts of belief as guessing, building on HRS's arguments, due to Kevin Dorst, Matt Mandelkern, and Ben Holguín.

AbstractOver the first two decades of the twenty-first century, John Witte, Jr. has not only carefully documented but also creatively promoted in many ways three very important developments: (1) the almost revolutionary worldwide reawakening of cooperation in the fields of law and religion after the termination of their long, fruitful history of cooperation in the mid-1800s; (2) the efforts to strengthen a justice-oriented legal culture in democratic societies and the legal, academic, and political appreciation of human rights (also in disputes with human rights skeptics); and (3) the reconciliation of traditional values and new needs for freedom in the ethos and law of marriage and family.

AbstractIn this note, we prove the semiampleness conjecture for Kawamata log terminal Calabi–Yau (CY) surface pairs over an excellent base ring. As applications, we deduce that generalized abundance and Serrano’s conjecture hold for surfaces. Finally, we study the semiampleness conjecture for CY threefolds over a mixed characteristic DVR.
IMMORTAL OR EVERLASTING? BOOK 3 OF THE COMMENTARY ON ARISTOTLE'S DE ANIMA ASCRIBED TO PHILOPONUS
Authors: Ge Tianqin 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis article focusses on a hitherto underappreciated distinction between immortality and everlastingness in a Greek commentary of disputed authorship on Aristotle's De anima Book 3. This article argues that this distinction calls into question the attribution of the commentary to Philoponus.
Artificial Market Timing in Mutual Funds
Authors: Busse Jeffrey A. , Ding Jing , Jiang Lei , Tang Yuehua 
Published: November 2022

AbstractWe document statistically significant relations between mutual fund betas and past market returns driven by fund feedback trading. Against this backdrop, evidence of “artificial” market timing emerges when standard market timing regressions are estimated across periods that span time variation in fund systematic risk levels, as is typical. Artificial timing significantly explains the inverse relation between timing model estimates of market timing and stock selectivity. A fund’s feedback trading relates to its past performance and remains significant after accounting for trading on momentum. Fund flows suggest that investors value feedback trading, which helps hedge downside risk during bear markets.
Live and direct? Censorship and racialised public morality in grime and drill music
Authors: de Lacey Alex 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThis article addresses the linguistic policing of grime and UK drill music. Existing studies often focus on the immediacy of the penal system. This article will instead explore the extent to which institutional bodies uphold and maintain a programme of racialised censorship across radio broadcasts, seeking to understand how these value judgements impact upon creative practice. It presents an ethnographic study of three radio shows that aired on BBC 1Xtra, demonstrating through interviews and analysis how the broadcaster's censorship practice unfairly renders Black artists as dangerous with criminal associations. Lyrical assertions of musical skill are misread as direct threats, while evocations of the quotidian are seen to cause violence rather than reflect artists’ surroundings. Importantly, it will show how artists’ work and words are adversely discriminated against owing to a legacy of racialised public morality that imposes greater sanctions and restrictions on artistic output: radio personalities must strike a balance between presenting voyeuristic excitement about a genre, and the need to meet (racialised) editorial standards; producers assiduously monitor new slang to make sure that it is censored; and artists are encouraged to self-censor and alter their musical output, to protect themselves from unwanted ramifications.
Moments of the Hurwitz zeta function on the critical line
Authors: SAHAY ANURAG 
Published: November 2022

AbstractWe study the moments$M_k(T;\,\alpha) = \int_T^{2T} |\zeta(s,\alpha)|^{2k}\,dt$of the Hurwitz zeta function$\zeta(s,\alpha)$on the critical line,$s = 1/2 + it$with a rational shift$\alpha \in \mathbb{Q}$. We conjecture, in analogy with the Riemann zeta function, that$M_k(T;\,\alpha) \sim c_k(\alpha) T (\!\log T)^{k^2}$. Using heuristics from analytic number theory and random matrix theory, we conjecturally compute$c_k(\alpha)$. In the process, we investigate moments of products of DirichletL-functions on the critical line. We prove some of our conjectures for the cases$k = 1,2$.
