A FRAMEWORK FOR LOCALIZATION OF OPEN SOURCE APPLICATIONS FOR INDIGENOUS ETHIOPIAN LANGUAGES: A CASE STUDY ON AMHARIC
Creators: name: ABUBEKER SEID ALI
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2022

description: Open Source Software (OSS) provides a numerous advantage for developing country like
 Ethiopia. It gives privileges to use, copy, study, modify and distribute with free or
 negligible license fee. For multilingual and multicultural country, localization has a vital
 role to create and build local digital society. Localization of an OSS web application
 provides an opportunity to deliver information or services to a target local customers in
 their own language and cultures. This research focuses to study and develop appropriate
 framework for localization of an OSS web-based application (WBA) user interface into
 Amharic language. Low in cost, accessing source code and freedom to study/modify are
 the main reasons to choose and study OSS WBA. In addition, local Amharic speaker
 societies should not be mandatory to learn/know English language before accessing and
 using a WBA. Because most commonly the OSS projects are design and developed for
 English language speakers and their cultures. Language and cultural barriers have become
 the critical challenges to use an OSS WBA for local business in Ethiopia. This is especially
 true in rural areas, where native Amharic language speakers who cannot read or understand
 the English language. Localization is the process of adapting a web application to a
 particular local target language and culture. Localization framework is used to localize a
 WBA into a target local language; and in order to make localization easy. Although in the
 previous studies different localization frameworks are developed which are used for
 European and Asian languages and cultures. But those frameworks are not directly
 applicable for Amharic language, because a language and its local cultural issues are
 different from those countries. The literature analysis method is used to identify and
 analyze relevant localization issues, components and procedures of web application
 localization. In addition, literature analysis also used to explore and analyze the contents
 of a WBA user interface (UI) and the Amharic language content formats and cultural
 issues. The purpose of this research is to investigate and design a framework for
 localization of an OSS WBA into Amharic language with special focus on UI contents. It
 can help Amharic speakers to access and retrieve the web application resources using their
 own native language.

description: Structural convergence is a framework for convergence of graphs by Nešetřil and Ossona de Mendez that unifies the dense (left) graph convergence and Benjamini-Schramm convergence. They posed a problem asking whether for a given sequence of graphs $(G_n)$ converging to a limit $L$ and a vertex $r$ of $L$ it is possible to find a sequence of vertices $(r_n)$ such that $L$ rooted at $r$ is the limit of the graphs $G_n$ rooted at $r_n$. A counterexample was found by Christofides and Král', but they showed that the statement holds for almost all vertices $r$ of $L$. We offer another perspective to the original problem by considering the size of definable sets to which the root $r$ belongs. We prove that if $r$ is an algebraic vertex (i.e. belongs to a finite definable set), the sequence of roots $(r_n)$ always exists.
Helically symmetric extended magnetohydrodynamics: Hamiltonian formulation and equilibrium variational principles

description: Hamiltonian extended magnetohydrodynamics (XMHD) is restricted to respect helical symmetry by reducing the Poisson bracket for 3D dynamics to a helically symmetric one, as an extension of the previous study for translationally symmetric XMHD (D.A. Kaltsas et al, Phys. Plasmas 24, 092504 (2017)). Four families of Casimir invariants are obtained directly from the symmetric Poisson bracket and they are used to construct Energy-Casimir variational principles for deriving generalized XMHD equilibrium equations with arbitrary macroscopic flows. The system is then cast into the form of Grad-Shafranov-Bernoulli equilibrium equations. The axisymmetric and the translationally symmetric formulations can be retrieved as geometric reductions of the helical symmetric one. As special cases, the derivation of the corresponding equilibrium equations for incompressible plasmas is discussed and the helically symmetric equilibrium equations for the Hall MHD system are obtained upon neglecting electron inertia. An example of an incompressible double-Beltrami equilibrium is presented in connection with a magnetic configuration having non-planar helical magnetic axis.

description: It is often difficult for donors to predict the value of charitable giving because they know little about the persons who receive their help. This concern is particularly acute when making contributions to organizations that serve heterogeneous populations. While we have considerable evidence that donors are more generous if they know their assistance benefits a preferred group, we know little about the demand for such information. To start closing this gap, we study transfers of income to real-world poor people in the context of dictator games. Our dictators can purchase signals about why the recipients are poor. We find that a third of the dictators are willing to pay a dollar to learn more about their recipient. Dictators who devote resources to acquiring information are individuals whose giving is particularly responsive to recipient type. They use the information mainly to withhold resources from “undeserving” types, leading to a drastic decline in aggregate transfers. With endogenous information about recipients, we find that all types of poor subjects are worse off. Our results suggest that the effects of truth-in-giving policies are highly responsive to recipient heterogeneity and biased against more generous giving.

Die Kleine sollte weiterschlafen, war aber neidisch auf die Brüder, die immer ein Ei bekamen. Deshalb holte sie sich eines Tages heimlich selbst ein frischgelegtes Ei aus dem Hühnerstall. Sie bemerkte aber zu spät, daß die Brüder mit den Tieren schon auf dem mittäglichen Heimweg waren. Vor der drohenden Gefahr versuchte sie, das Ei in einer Anhäufung von Staub auf dem Boden zu verstecken. Das mißlang aber, und sie wurde von den Brüdern zur Rede gestellt.

La petite fille était censée dormir, mais elle était en réalité jalouse de ses frères qui avaient toujours droit à un œuf. C’est pourquoi un jour elle alla en cachette se chercher toute seule un œuf frais du poulailler. Mais elle remarqua trop tard que les deux frères étaient déjà sur le chemin du retour avec les animaux. En face du danger imminent, elle chercha à cacher l’œuf par terre sous un tas de poussière. Mais sa tentative échoua et ses frères lui demandèrent des explications. A la fin elle leur expliqua la raison pour laquelle elle avait fait ça.

description: The infrared dynamics of generic 3d N=4 bad theories (as per the good-bad-ugly classification of Gaiotto and Witten) are poorly understood. Examples of such theories with a single unitary gauge group and fundamental flavors have been studied recently, and the low energy effective theory around some special point in the Coulomb branch was shown to have a description in terms of a good theory and a certain number of free hypermultiplets. A classification of possible infrared fixed points for bad theories by Bashkirov, based on unitarity constraints and superconformal symmetry, suggest a much richer set of possibilities for the IR behavior, although explicit examples were not known. In this note, we present a specific example of a bad quiver gauge theory which admits a good IR description on a sublocus of its Coulomb branch. The good description, in question, consists of two decoupled quiver gauge theories with no free hypermultiplets.

Subjects: subject: 170202 Decision Making
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: Background: Disaster triage embodies all key features of dynamic decision making. Multiple decisions have to be made under time pressure and workload. Situations are often unpredictable requiring trainees to apply learned routines to novel conditions. Up to this point, psychologic theories of learning can provide only little support on how to train disaster responders for these challenging situations.

Methods: We summarize and illustrate several examples of dynamic decision-making research using simulations and microworlds as a starting point for a new theory of learning and skill acquisition in disaster triage. We describe MEDIC, a microworld in the context of medical diagnosis, and other simple tasks designed to gather people's understanding of accumulation, a basic component of dynamic tasks.

Results: Using a microworld called MEDIC, we demonstrate the difficulties of learning to be effective at medical decision making and present a set of theoretical constructs that help to explain those difficulties. Implications for how to overcome them are also discussed. On the basis of this kind of research and our instance-based learning theory, we develop principles for the design of effective disaster training and for building a theoretical framework that can systematically predict how to best train for successful performance in disaster situations. Finally, we also demonstrate the difficulty of understanding dynamic systems; educated adults with medical expertise have trouble understanding even simple dynamic medical problems.

Conclusions: Dynamic decision-making research can be used as a theoretical and empirical reference for advancing pediatric triage training to prepare trainees for disaster triage. Recommendations for effective learning derived from dynamic decision-making research are presented.

En materia turística, la artesanía colombiana es considerada como una expresión de identidad y valor cultural, que representa una oportunidad de apoyo para el desarrollo económico y social de las poblaciones con vocación artesanal. Pese a lo anterior, la actividad artesanal, no es económicamente viable por sí misma, lo que provoca que gran parte de las familias que tradicionalmente se han dedicado a este oficio opten por realizar nuevas actividades económicas. Es por esto qué, se proponen unos lineamientos basados en los atributos culturales y naturales del municipio con el fin de identificar el perfil del turista, sus beneficios, personalidad, valores y esencia; elementos con los que nace la propuesta denominada: Ruta Turística del Tejido Zenú.

description: The research reported here is relevant to human decision making in disaster, emergency, and generally dynamic and changing conditions. In emergency conditions, both external resources and cognitive capabilities are limited. A decision maker must manage his/her cognitive load, that of others in the situation, and allocate the often limited resources in a short period oftime. The main job of a decision maker in an emergency situation is to allocate resources wisely where the situation changes constantly, outcomes are delayed, decisions are interdependent, priorities change over time, and there is high uncertainty of outcomes.

description: Following the methodology used by Kim and Nelson (1999b), I find estimates of the permanent and transitory components for Canadian regions based on the Friedman model of business fluctuations. The empirical results support the theoretical predictions that negative transitory shocks hit the economy putting down the real regional output. After that, the regional economy enters in a recovery phase and after this it is operating again near to the trend ceiling level. Using the estimated filtered probabilities, a chronology of the regional business cycles is presented. It shows that there are clear and particular episodes corresponding to the regional dynamics which are not necessarily present at the aggregate level. / Suivant la méthodologie utilisée par Kim et Nelson (1999b), j’estime les composantes transitoires et permanentes des cycles économiques des régions canadiennes inspirées par le modèle de Friedman sur les fluctuations des cycles économiques. Les résultats empiriques appuient la théorie qui prédit que les chocs transitoires négatifs sur l’économie entraîne une baisse de la production régionale. Ensuite, l’économie régionale entre dans une phase de récupération pour après tendre à se rapprocher de son niveau maximal. Utilisant des probabilités filtrées, un ordre chronologique des cycles économiques régionaux est présenté. Cet ordre chronologique indique clairement que certains cycles sont directement liés à la dynamique régionale et ne sont pas nécessairement présents à un niveau agrégé.
Time-Inconsistent Preferences and Consumer Self-Control

description: Why do consumers sometimes act against their own better judgment, engaging in behavior that is often regretted after the fact and that would have been rejected with adequate forethought? More generally, how do consumers attempt to maintain self-control in the face of time-inconsistent preferences? This article addresses consumer impatience by developing a decision-theoretic model based on reference points. The model explains how and why consumers experience sudden increases in desire for a product, increases that can result in the temporary overriding of longterm preferences. Tactics that consumers use to control their own behavior are also discussed. Consumer self-control is framed as a struggle between two psychological forces, desire and willpower. Finally, two general classes of self-control strategies are described: those that directly reduce desire, and those that overcome desire through willpower.

It has been identified that a deficient characterization can lead to errors of the third type, since it would not be possible to determine the needs and realities of the displaced population, thus leading to the implementation of solutions that are not the most appropriate to solve the difficulties that afflict this population. This generates inefficiency in public policy and the continuous affectation of the rights of the population in a situation of forced displacement.

description: The millions of deaths that occurred during China’s great famine of 1959-1961 represent one of the world’s greatest civil demographic disasters. Two primary hypotheses have been advanced to explain the famine. One is that China experienced three consecutive years of bad weather while the other is that national policies were wrong in that they reduced and misallocated agricultural production. The relative importance of these two factors to the famine remains controversial among China scholars. This paper uses provincial-level demographic panel data and a Bayesian empirical approach in an effort to distinguish the relative importance of weather and national policy on China’s great demographic disaster. Consistent with the qualitative literature in this area, we find that national policy played an overall more important role in the famine than weather. However, we provide new quantitative evidence that weather was also an important factor, particularly in those provinces that experienced excessively wet conditions.

description: Research has shown that adverse events during care transitions from hospital to home can have a significant impact on patients' outcomes, leading to readmission, delayed healing or even death. Gaps exist in the ways of monitoring care during transition periods and there is a need to help organizations better implement and monitor safe person-and family-centered care. Value statements are a way to obtain narratives in lay terms about how well care, treatment and support is organized to meet the needs and preferences of patients/families. The purpose of this study was to identify the value statements that are perceived by decision-makers and patients/families to best signify safe person- and family-centered care during transitions from hospital to home.

Nous examinons différents éléments de la Loi sur les accidents du travail et les maladies professionnelles et des pratiques dans ce domaine qui peuvent servir soit à prévenir ou à aggraver une incapacité chronique au travail. On s’attarde notamment sur les questions suivantes à la lumière de la littérature scientifique reliée au retour au travail : L’évolution des connaissances scientifiques portant sur les bonnes pratiques pour prévenir les incapacités chroniques; la mesure du retour au travail dans les études scientifiques; les effets des perceptions d’injustice sur la santé et la réadaptation; la mesure du stress relié au processus d’indemnisation. On examine ensuite, en tenant compte de résultats de recherche empirique, trois thématiques juridiques : l’assignation temporaire et le rôle des médecins dans le processus de réparation; la judiciarisation qui mène à l’inaptitude permanente; les réclamations pour lésion psychologiques chez les premiers répondants. On conclut en invitant l’ensemble des acteurs impliqués dans le processus de réparation d’une lésion professionnelle à réfléchir à toutes les sources potentielles de perceptions d’injustice afin de réduire en amont les facteurs qui mènent à l’incapacité au travail.

description: Using large $N$ arguments, we propose a scheme for calculating the two-point eigenvector correlation function for non-normal random matrices in the large $N$ limit. The setting generalizes the quaternionic extension of free probability to two-point functions. In the particular case of biunitarily invariant random matrices, we obtain a simple, general expression for the two-point eigenvector correlation function, which can be viewed as a further generalization of the single ring theorem. This construction has some striking similarities to the freeness of the second kind known for the Hermitian ensembles in large $N$. On the basis of several solved examples, we conjecture two kinds of microscopic universality of the eigenvectors - one in the bulk, and one at the rim. The form of the conjectured bulk universality agrees with the scaling limit found by Chalker and Mehlig [JT Chalker, B Mehlig, PRL, \textbf{81}, 3367 (1998)] in the case of the complex Ginibre ensemble.

description: Zunächst wird auf den Unterschied von Kobolden und Hexen hingewiesen. Dann wird die Prozedur geschildert, wie eine Frau, von einer bereits geprüften Hexe angeleitet, Hexe werden kann. Nach Durchlaufen des umfangreichen Verfahrens, dem sich die Sprecherin fiktiv unterzieht, soll sie abschließend noch um Mitternacht von einem Ziegenbock zum Hexentreffen gebracht werden. Als sie bei der Ankunft des Ziegenbocks, der durch den Kamin ins Haus kommt, vor Schreck den Namen der Madonna erwähnt, verschwindet dieser, und die Hexenwerdung ist mißlungen. Deshalb kommt die Kandidatin auch nicht zu dem Hexentreffen, bei dem Säuglinge über dem Feuer geröstet werden.
description: Tout d’abord la narratrice précise la différence entre lutins et sorcières. Ensuite elle décrit la procédure selon laquelle une femme en suivant les enseignements d’une sorcière expérimentée peut devenir à son tour une sorcière. A la fin du procédé complexe, auquel la narratrice se soumet fictivement, à minuit elle devrait encore être emmenée par un bouc au rendez-vous des sorcières. Lorsque le bouc apparait dans la maison en rentrant par la cheminée, elle prononce le nom de la Sainte Vierge et celui-ci disparait et le procédé pour devenir sorcière échoue. C’est la raison pour laquelle la candidate ne se présente pas non plus au rendez-vous des sorcières, au cours duquel elles mettent au bûcher les nourrissons.
Thinking or Feeling?: Effects of Decision Making Personality in Conflict Resolution

description: This chapter presents an investigation of the effects of decision making personality in solving an international conflict. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is represented in a realistic and well-known videogame, PeaceMaker. Participants in a study played the game, attempting to achieve a two-state solution in the game, under the Israeli role and the Palestinian role of the game. We collected data from their game play and used a questionnaire to collect information regarding the player's personality, their religion, and other general information. Results indicate that the players' decision making personality is related to their performance in PeaceMaker. Players of thinking personality were more successful at reaching a conflict resolution in the game compared to the players with feeling personality, suggesting that those that are more assertive and impersonal, rather than affective and personal, are more successful in conflict resolution. Furthermore, this distinction is particularly important when the players' religions are those involved in the conflict.

description: Dynamic decision-making (DDM) research grew out of a perceived need for understanding how people control dynamic, complex, real-world systems. DDM has describable characteristics and, with some unavoidable sacrifice of realism, is suitable for study in a laboratory setting through the use of complex computer simulations commonly called ‘microworlds’. This paper presents a taxonomic definition of DDM, an updated review of existing microworlds and their characteristics, and a set of cognitive demands imposed by DDM tasks. Although the study of DDM has garnered little attention to date, we believe that both technological advancement and the relationships between DDM and naturalistic decision making, complex problem solving, and general systems theory have made DDM a viable process by which to study how people make decisions in dynamic, real-world environments.

description: One form of inertia is the tendency to repeat the last decision irrespective of the obtained outcomes while making decisions from experience (DFE). A number of computational models based upon the Instance-Based Learning Theory, a theory of DFE, have included different inertia implementations and have shown to simultaneously account for both risk-taking and alternations between alternatives. The role that inertia plays in these models, however, is unclear as the same model without inertia is also able to account for observed risk-taking quite well. This paper demonstrates the predictive benefits of incorporating one particular implementation of inertia in an existing IBL model. We use two large datasets, estimation and competition, from the Technion Prediction Tournament involving a repeated binary-choice task to show that incorporating an inertia mechanism in an IBL model enables it to account for the observed average risk-taking and alternations. Including inertia, however, does not help the model to account for the trends in risk-taking and alternations over trials compared to the IBL model without the inertia mechanism. We generalize the two IBL models, with and without inertia, to the competition set by using the parameters determined in the estimation set. The generalization process demonstrates both the advantages and disadvantages of including inertia in an IBL model.

description: Eine Gruppe von Frauen hatte einen jungen Ziegenbock angeschafft, daß später einmal dazu dienen sollte, die Ziegen zu decken. Die Ziegenherde wurde von einer Gruppe von Frauen turnusmäßig gehütet. Als einmal die Sprecherin an der Reihe war, trieb sich die Ziegenherde in der Nähe eines niedrigen Brunnens ohne Einfassung herum. Plötzlich fiel das Ziegenböcklein in den Brunnen. Die Sprecherin erschrak sehr, weil das ja bedeuten konnte, daß das Tier starb und sie die Kosten hätte übernehmen müssen. Sie ruft verschiedene Nachbarn und Verwandte zu Hilfe. Zunächst wagte es niemand in den Brunnenschacht hinabzusteigen, bis schließlich ein beherzter Bekannter ankam, der sich einem Seil hinunterließ und nach einigen Komplikationen das Ziegenböcklein befreite.
description: Un groupe de femmes avait acheté un jeune bouc qui devait ensuite avoir la fonction de monter les chèvres. Le troupeau de chèvres était gardé à tour de rôle par ce groupe de femmes. Un jour, quand c’était le tour de la narratrice, le troupeau de chèvres traînassa près d’un puits qui était bas et sans bordure. Tout à coup le petit bouc tomba dans le puits. La narratrice eut très peur parce que cela aurait signifié que l’animal serait mort et qu’elle aurait dû se charger des frais. Elle appela donc plusieurs voisins et parents à son secours. Tout d’abord personne n’osa descendre dans le puits, jusqu'à ce qu'arriva un homme courageux, connaissance de la narratrice. Il se glissa en bas avec une corde et après quelques complications il délivra le petit bouc.

description: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a functional imaging modality widely used in neuroscience studies. To obtain meaningful quantitative results from PET images, attenuation correction is necessary during image reconstruction. For PET/MR hybrid systems, PET attenuation is challenging as Magnetic Resonance (MR) images do not reflect attenuation coefficients directly. To address this issue, we present deep neural network methods to derive the continuous attenuation coefficients for brain PET imaging from MR images. With only Dixon MR images as the network input, the existing U-net structure was adopted and analysis using forty patient data sets shows it is superior than other Dixon based methods. When both Dixon and zero echo time (ZTE) images are available, we have proposed a modified U-net structure, named GroupU-net, to efficiently make use of both Dixon and ZTE information through group convolution modules when the network goes deeper. Quantitative analysis based on fourteen real patient data sets demonstrates that both network approaches can perform better than the standard methods, and the proposed network structure can further reduce the PET quantification error compared to the U-net structure.

description: This report contains data from the 2021 OnLAC year. This report is designed for use by child welfare organizations as a performance measurement system. The Assessment and Action Record (AAR) outcome data available in this report should assist child welfare organizations in the development of an internal evaluation program. The AAR findings are intended to help supervisors, program managers, executive directors and board members within child welfare organizations monitor children’s outcomes on a regular basis by comparing children’s and youths’ developmental progress with intended goals. A second intended use of the AAR is to inform decision-makers as to possible means of improving the quality and relevance of services on an ongoing basis. This report is also designed to provide policy-makers with accurate, up-to-date knowledge of system-wide outcomes thereby fulfilling an accountability function and a guiding function in identifying policies and practices that promote continuous improvements in child welfare policies and practices.
