description: Recent years have seen the rapid development of microbial genomics. The vast amounts of microbial genomic information make it possible to study microorganisms systematically. However, how to manipulate the huge amount of available data, how to retrieve genomic information effectively, and how to effectively process the large scale data are big challenges. To cope with these difficulties, more sophisticated informatics methods have been widely used and have become an essential part of genomics. My research work is focused on developing new strategies for several of the challenges mentioned above. First, we describe a new software tool, PLasmid Analysis System and Marker IDentification (PLASMID), for selecting an optimal set of probes for the design of a classification microarray. The tool provides the user with several clustering methods, a probe ranking method, probe redundancy reduction, and probe selection using stepwise discriminant analysis. The software package has been applied to data from a mixed-plasmid microarray, a virtual mixed-genome microarray, and an expression microarray. Second, to increase discrimination accuracy, we have developed a fusion algorithm that combines the information obtained from both Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) and Multiple-Locus Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Analysis (MLVA) assays to obtain phylogenetic relationships. Results are assessed by comparison with phage-typing assays and with known epidemiological relationships. Our analysis shows that the fusion algorithm provides an improved ability to discriminate between bacterial isolates and to infer phylogenetic relationships compared with using either PFGE or MLVA analysis alone. Many studies have shown that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is common among microbes. HGT can lead to mosaic-like gene sequences in plasmids which makes it a challenge to build robust phylogenetic trees. Simply applying existing phylogenetic methods to study the evolution of plasmids may lead to questionable results. When multiple sequence alignment is used, most phylogenetic methods assume the sequences are homologous. We consider several features of plasmids that affect phylogeny analysis and introduce a method for establishing reliable phylogenetic relationships.

description: Complex spatiotemporal patterns, called chimera states, consist of coexisting coherent and incoherent domains and can be observed in networks of coupled oscillators. The interplay of synchrony and asynchrony in complex brain networks is an important aspect in studies of both brain function and disease. We analyse the collective dynamics of FitzHugh-Nagumo neurons in complex networks motivated by its potential application to epileptology and epilepsy surgery. We compare two topologies: an empirical structural neural connectivity derived from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and a mathematically constructed network with modular fractal connectivity. We analyse the properties of chimeras and partially synchronized states, and obtain regions of their stability in the parameter planes. Furthermore, we qualitatively simulate the dynamics of epileptic seizures and study the influence of the removal of nodes on the network synchronizability, which can be useful for applications to epileptic surgery.

description: A planet transits an 11th magnitude, G1V star in the constellation Corona Borealis. We designate the planet XO-1b, and the star, XO-1, also known as GSC 02041-01657. XO-1 lacks a trigonometric distance; we estimate it to be 200+-20 pc. Of the ten stars currently known to host extrasolar transiting planets, the star XO-1 is the most similar to the Sun in its physical characteristics: its radius is 1.0+-0.08 R_Sun, its mass is 1.0+-0.03 M_Sun, V sini < 3 km/s, and its metallicity [Fe/H] is 0.015+-0.04. The orbital period of the planet XO-1b is 3.941534+-0.000027 days, one of the longer ones known. The planetary mass is 0.90+-0.07 M_Jupiter, which is marginally larger than that of other transiting planets with periods between 3 and 4 days. Both the planetary radius and the inclination are functions of the spectroscopically determined stellar radius. If the stellar radius is 1.0+-0.08 R_Sun, then the planetary radius is 1.30+-0.11 R_Jupiter and the inclination of the orbit is 87.7+-1.2 degrees. We have demonstrated a productive international collaboration between professional and amateur astronomers that was important to distinguishing this planet from many other similar candidates.

description: This qualitative study uses a sample of sixteen African American high school juniors, the school principal, and a school counselor from a predominantly African American high school in North Carolina to explore African American youth perceptions of historically black colleges (HBCUs) and predominantly white institutions (PWIs). This case study applies one on-one interviews and focus group discussions to illustrate that participants perceive historically black colleges and universities (HBCU) as institutions that provide support, entertainment, and Black history and predominately white institutions (PWI) as uncomfortable, inaccessible, and academically demanding institutions that emphasize sports. The results of the study reveal that ideologies of Blackness and Whiteness, influences from the family, and media are the contributing factors in African American youth perceptions of historically black colleges and universities and predominately white institutions.

description: In a recent paper [quant-ph/9610040], Shor and Laflamme define two ``weight enumerators'' for quantum error correcting codes, connected by a MacWilliams transform, and use them to give a linear-programming bound for quantum codes. We extend their work by introducing another enumerator, based on the classical theory of shadow codes, that tightens their bounds significantly. In particular, nearly all of the codes known to be optimal among additive quantum codes (codes derived from orthogonal geometry ([quant-ph/9608006])) can be shown to be optimal among all quantum codes. We also use the shadow machinery to extend a bound on additive codes (E. M. Rains, manuscript in preparation) to general codes, obtaining as a consequence that any code of length n can correct at most floor((n+1)/6) errors.

description: We investigate a possibility of Hund's metal behavior in the Hubbard model with asymmetric density of states having peak(s). Specifically, we consider the degenerate two-band model and compare its results to the five-band model with realistic density of states of iron and nickel, showing that the obtained results are more general, provided that the hybridization between states of different symmetry is sufficiently small. We find that quasiparticle damping and the formation of local magnetic moments due to Hund's exchange interaction are enhanced by both, the density of states asymmetry, which yields stronger correlated electron or hole excitations, and the larger density of states at the Fermi level, increasing the number of virtual electron-hole excitations. For realistic densities of states these two factors are often interrelated because the Fermi level is attracted towards peaks of the density of states. We discuss the implication of the obtained results to various substances and compounds, such as transition metals, iron pnictides, and cuprates.

description: Stereotypes are over-simplified and over-generalized assertions about people from other social groups. They bear cognitive significance, but they could also lead to social consequences. The current study focuses on stereotype change when stereotype-disconfirming information is available. It applies theories of stereotype formation, stereotype change, media processes and effects, cultural differences and cognitive orientations to examine how stereotypes of African Americans changed as a result of Barack Obama being elected the first African American president in American history. It proposes three models and four hypotheses, namely, media effect model, cultural effect model and cognitive organization model to examine what led to the change and who changed. A panel study was designed to test the three models and four hypotheses. Data were collected from college students both in China and in the United States. Regression analyses were conducted on the proposed models and hypotheses. The media effect model is supported in general. The cultural effect model is not supported, neither is the cognitive organization model. For Chinese, media use led to negative stereotype change while their evaluations of the American media and their knowledge contributed to positive stereotype change. For Americans, media use led to positive stereotype change. Their media evaluations and knowledge did not predict stereotype change. Chinese showed a significant change in their stereotypes about African Americans while Americans demonstrated a marginally significant change. Implications of the study are discussed.

description: We develop a ${\rm SU}(3)_C\otimes {\rm SU}(3)_L\otimes {\rm U}(1)_X$ model where the number of fermion generations is fixed by cancellation of gauge anomalies, being a type of 3-3-1 model with new charged leptons. Similarly to the economical 3-3-1 models, symmetry breaking is achieved effectively with two scalar triplets so that the spectrum of scalar particles at the TeV scale contains just two CP even scalars, one of which is the recently discovered Higgs boson, plus a charged scalar. Such a scalar sector is simpler than the one in the Two Higgs Doublet Model, hence more attractive for phenomenological studies, and has no FCNC mediated by scalars except for the ones induced by the mixing of SM fermions with heavy fermions. We identify a global residual symmetry of the model which guarantees mass degeneracies and some massless fermions whose masses need to be generated by the introduction of effective operators. The fermion masses so generated require less fine-tuning for most of the SM fermions and FCNC are naturally suppressed by the small mixing between the third family of quarks and the rest. The effective setting is justified by an ultraviolet completion of the model from which the effective operators emerge naturally. A detailed particle mass spectrum is presented, and an analysis of the $Z^\prime$ production at the LHC run II is performed to show that it could be easily detected by considering the invariant mass and transverse momentum distributions in the dimuon channel.

Mapping and evolution of candidate sex determining loci, sex chromosomes, and sex linked sequences in rainbow and cutthroat trout
Creators: name: Alfaqih, Mahmoud Ahmad
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2008
Subjects: Rainbow trout

description: Fish provide an intriguing model for the study of how sex determination mechanisms evolve. Salmonids have an XX-XY mechanism for sex determination where males are the heterogametic sex. Sex chromosomes of most salmonid species can not be cytogenetically distinguished suggesting that they are at an early stage of evolution. Salmonids have also evolved from a common tetraploid ancestor 25-100 million years ago. The role of genome duplications in shaping the karyotype of vertebrates is well established. The presence of a genome duplication event in salmonids' recent evolutionary history makes them a good model for understanding the structuring of genomes following polyploidization. This dissertation examines the evolution of sex determination mechanisms, and the evolution of duplicated loci following polyploidization using the two model salmonid species rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki). In this dissertation, we first show that unlike other Pacific salmon and trout species examined, rainbow and cutthroat trout have their sex locus on the same linkage group which appears to be largely homologous. We then use a BAC clone containing sequences of one of the markers used to establish synteny between the sex chromosomes of the two species, to identify the Y chromosome of cutthroat trout. We also test the linkage of a number of candidate sex-determining genes to the Y chromosome of rainbow trout. We exclude the role of all of the tested genes as candidates for sex-determination. We also describe duplication of one of the candidate genes, Sox6 and discuss its inheritance in our mapping families. Sox9, a candidate sex-determining gene is part of a chromosomal block shown to be conserved among different species. Recent evidence indicates conservation of the block in rainbow trout. Two Sox9 gene copies were isolated from rainbow trout, Sox9 and Sox9[alpha]2. Previous evaluations of their evolutionary history gave ambiguous results. We hypothesize that mapping of Sox9 and Sox9[alpha]2 would allow us to more properly evaluate their evolutionary relationship. The map position of Sox9 and Sox9[alpha]2 genes indicates that Sox9 belongs to the Sox9b clade while Sox9[alpha]2 belongs to the Sox9a clade.

description: We consider a class of singular ordinary differential equations describing analytic systems of arbitrary finite dimension, subject to a quasi-periodic forcing term and in the presence of dissipation. We study the existence of response solutions, i.e. quasi-periodic solutions with the same frequency vector as the forcing term, in the case of large dissipation. We assume the system to be conservative in the absence dissipation, so that the forcing term is --- up to the sign --- the gradient of a potential energy, and both the mass and damping matrices to be symmetric and positive definite. Further, we assume a non-degeneracy condition on the forcing term, essentially that the time-average of the potential energy has a strict local minimum. On the contrary, no condition is assumed on the forcing frequency; in particular we do not require any Diophantine condition. We prove that, under the assumptions above, a response solution always exist provided the dissipation is strong enough. This extends results previously available in literature in the one-dimensional case.

Enhancing positive outcomes through increasing savoring the moment

Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2010
Subjects: Positive psychology

description: Recently, the positive psychology literature has moved towards creating and testing interventions to increase positive outcomes, such as happiness, positive affect, and satisfaction with life and to decrease negative outcomes, such as depressive symptoms. One of these possible interventions involves increasing savoring the moment. Savoring the moment is the trait of focusing on positive events while they occur to increase positive emotions in the present moment. The focus of the present study was to test the ability of a savoring the moment intervention to increase positive outcomes and decrease negative outcomes over a two week time span. It was found that, when compared to the control group, the savoring the moment intervention group experienced significant decreases in depressive symptoms and negative affect. That being said, levels of happiness, subjective happiness, satisfaction with life, and positive affect did not differ between the two groups. Additionally, a significant interaction between the condition of the participants and the number of subjective positive events was found for positive affect. In this case, the savoring the moment intervention participants had higher levels of positive affect only when there were low numbers of positive events. Implications for clinical interventions and future research are explored.

description: We improve on the Thomas-Fermi approximation for the single-particle density of fermions by introducing inhomogeneity corrections. Rather than invoking a gradient expansion, we relate the density to the unitary evolution operator for the given effective potential energy and approximate this operator by a Suzuki-Trotter factorization. This yields a hierarchy of approximations, one for each approximate factorization. For the purpose of a first benchmarking, we examine the approximate densities for a few cases with known exact densities and observe a very satisfactory, and encouraging, performance. As a bonus, we also obtain a simple fourth-order leapfrog algorithm for the symplectic integration of classical equations of motion.

description: The 8-14 micron emission spectra of 12 T Tauri stars in the Taurus/Auriga dark clouds and in the TW Hydrae association obtained with the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS; The IRS is a collaborative venture between Cornell University and Ball Aerospace Corporation funded by NASA through the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Ames Research Center.) on board Spitzer are analyzed. Assuming the 10 micron features originate from silicate grains in the optically thin surface layers of T Tauri disks, the 8-14 micron dust emissivity for each object is derived from its Spitzer spectrum. The emissivities are fit with the opacities of laboratory analogs of cosmic dust. The fits include small nonspherical grains of amorphous silicates (pyroxene and olivine), crystalline silicates (forsterite and pyroxene), and quartz, together with large fluffy amorphous silicate grains. A wide range in the fraction of crystalline silicate grains as well as large silicate grains among these stars are found. The dust in the transitional-disk objects CoKu Tau/4, GM Aur, and DM Tau has the simplest form of silicates, with almost no hint of crystalline components and modest amounts of large grains. This indicates that the dust grains in these objects have been modified little from their origin in the interstellar medium. Other stars show various amounts of crystalline silicates, similar to the wide dispersion of the degree of crystallinity reported for Herbig Ae/Be stars of mass <2.5 solar masses. Late spectral type, low-mass stars can have significant fractions of crystalline silicate grains. Higher quartz mass fractions often accompany low amorphous olivine-to-amorphous pyroxene ratios. It is also found that lower contrast of the 10 micron feature accompanies greater crystallinity.

description: Neural networks with equal excitatory and inhibitory feedback show high computational performance. They operate close to a critical point characterized by the joint activation of large populations of neurons. Yet, in macaque motor cortex we observe very different dynamics with weak fluctuations on the population level. This suggests that motor cortex operates in a sub-optimal regime. Here we show the opposite: the large dispersion of correlations across neurons is a signature of a rich dynamical repertoire, hidden from macroscopic brain signals, but essential for high performance in such concepts as reservoir computing. Our findings suggest a refinement of the view on criticality in neural systems: network topology and heterogeneity endow the brain with two complementary substrates for critical dynamics of largely different complexities.

description: Aggressive driving behavior is a serious problem in the U.S. and many other parts of the world.

While aggressive driving is a serious traffic offense, the subject has not been addressed very widely in the criminal justice literature. Most importantly, most of the limited studies undertaken in this area have not been couched within a comprehensive theory which could be tested against empirical evidence. The present study attempts to understand aggressive driving viewed as a criminological issue, and it explores the utility of Gottfredson and Hirschi's Self-Control Theory (1990) as applied within the framework of Psychology's General Aggression Model (GAM, Anderson & Bushman, 2002). Two separate studies featuring independent samples and different but related measures are used to explore how four low self-control personality traits -- sensation seeking, impulsivity, consideration of future consequences [CFC], and anger or temper arousal -- relate to risky driving and aggressive driving within the framework of the GAM. Results of both Study 1 and study 2 reveal similar evidence to support the research hypotheses: 1) sensation seeking, impulsivity, and CFC might be associated with aggressive driving through their possible relationships with temperamental personality (e.g., trait of temper arousal); 2) sensation seekers might create the situations (e.g., risky driving) for themselves to act aggressively; and 3) impulsive people and sensation seekers may become frustrated by different driving conditions, and the level of frustration may mediate the effects of impulsivity and sensation seeking on aggressive driving. This study extends the research of low self-control theory by demonstrating how the personality traits involved in this construct are associated with criminal/analogue deviant behaviors. The findings not only validate the meditational model of the GAM, but also imply that the GAM could serve as a useful framework to study the phenomenon of violent crime and property crime in future research. More importantly, this study offers several actionable implications for the driver education curriculum, for aggressive driving prevention, and aggressive driving post-offense treatment programs.
title: PLATON
title: Developing a Graphical Lesson Planning System for Prospective Teachers

description: Lesson planning is both an important and demanding task—especially as part of teacher training. This paper presents the requirements for a lesson planning system and evaluates existing systems regarding these requirements. One major drawback of existing software tools is that most are limited to a text- or form-based representation of the lesson designs. In this article, a new approach with a graphical, time-based representation with (automatic) analyses methods is proposed and the system architecture and domain model are described in detail. The approach is implemented in an interactive, web-based prototype called PLATON, which additionally supports the management of lessons in units as well as the modelling of teacher and student-generated resources. The prototype was evaluated in a study with 61 prospective teachers (bachelor’s and master’s preservice teachers as well as teacher trainees in post-university teacher training) in Berlin, Germany, with a focus on usability. The results show that this approach proofed usable for lesson planning and offers positive effects for the perception of time and self-reflection.

description: We describe two ideas useful in the construction of highly improved quark actions for simulations on coarse lattices: (1) Field transformations to solve the doubler problem without destroying tree-level improvement for on- or off-shell quantities. (2) Anisotropic lattices with smaller temporal than spatial lattice spacing. We present first simulation results for the quenched light hadron and charmonium spectra obtained with a D234 action on anisotropic lattices.

description: We present Lick line-index measurements of standard stars from the list of Worthey. The spectra were taken with the multi-slit unit of the SCORPIO spectrograph at the 6-m Special Astrophysical observatory telescope. We describe in detail our method of analysis and explain the importance of using the Lick index system for studying extragalactic globular clusters. Our results show that the calibration of our instrumental system to the standard Lick system can be performed with high confidence.

Loopholes, Legal Interpretations and Game Playing: Whither the WTO without the Spirit of the GATT?

description: As with any document with legal form, the GATT and WTO agreements are replete with loopholes, vagueness and procedural rigidities that can be used to thwart or diminish the efficacy of what was intended when the document was agreed and drafted. Exploitation of such weaknesses is expected in, for example, tax codes. Until recently, the member states of the WTO have largely refrained from taking advantage of the opportunities for circumvention presented in the legal documents. The reason lies in the conduct embodied in the Spirit of the GATT which was informally embraced by member states and their diplomats right from the inception of the GATT. In recent years, however, acceptance of the Spirit of the GATT has waned, leading to exploitation of loopholes and other weaknesses of the WTO architecture, which threatens the ability of the organization and its agreements to function as intended. This paper examines two loopholes – (1) the Article XX(a) public morals exemptions and (2) the Article XXI national security exemption – and looks at how their recent use threatens the future viability of the WTO.

description: An important source of background in direct searches for low-mass dark matter particles are the energy deposits by small-angle scattering of environmental $γ$ rays. We report detailed measurements of low-energy spectra from Compton scattering of $γ$ rays in the bulk silicon of a charge-coupled device (CCD). Electron recoils produced by $γ$ rays from $^{57}$Co and $^{241}$Am radioactive sources are measured between 60 eV and 4 keV. The observed spectra agree qualitatively with theoretical predictions, and characteristic spectral features associated with the atomic structure of the silicon target are accurately measured for the first time. A theoretically-motivated parametrization of the data that describes the Compton spectrum at low energies for any incident $γ$-ray flux is derived. The result is directly applicable to background estimations for low-mass dark matter direct-detection experiments based on silicon detectors, in particular for the DAMIC experiment down to its current energy threshold.

description: The differential-equation eigenvalue problem associated with a recently-introduced Hamiltonian, whose eigenvalues correspond to the zeros of the Riemann zeta function, is analyzed using Fourier and WKB analysis. The Fourier analysis leads to a challenging open problem concerning the formulation of the eigenvalue problem in the momentum space. The WKB analysis gives the exact asymptotic behavior of the eigenfunction.

Cardinality constrained portfolio selection via factor models
Creators: name: Monge, Juan Francisco
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Portfolio Management (q-fin.PM)
subject: FOS: Economics and business
subject: 90C27

description: In this paper we propose and discuss different 0-1 linear models in order to solve the cardinality constrained portfolio problem by using factor models. Factor models are used to build portfolios to track indexes, together with other objectives, also need a smaller number of parameters to estimate than the classical Markowitz model. The addition of the cardinality constraints limits the number of securities in the portfolio. Restricting the number of securities in the portfolio allows us to obtain a concentrated portfolio, reduce the risk and limit transaction costs. To solve this problem, a pure 0-1 model is presented in this work, the 0-1 model is constructed by means of a piecewise linear approximation. We also present a new quadratic combinatorial problem, called a minimum edge-weighted clique problem, to obtain an equality weighted cardinality constrained portfolio. A piecewise linear approximation for this problem is presented in the context of a multi factor model. For a single factor model, we present a fast heuristic, based on some theoretical results to obtain an equality weighted cardinality constraint portfolio. The consideration of a piecewise linear approximation allow us to reduce significantly the computation time required for the equivalent quadratic problem. Computational results from the 0-1 models are compared to those using a state-of-the-art Quadratic MIP solver.

Generally Deformed Oscillator, Isospectral Oscillator System and Hermitian Phase Operator

Year: 1996

description: The generally deformed oscillator (GDO) and its multiphoton realization as well as the coherent and squeezed vacuum states are studied. We discuss, in particular, the GDO depending on a complex parameter q (therefore we call it q-GDO) together with the finite dimensional cyclic representations. As a realistic physical system of GDO the isospectral oscillator system is studied and it is found that its coherent and squeezed vacuum states are closely related to those of the oscillator. It is pointed out that starting from the q-GDO with q root of unity one can define the hermitian phase operators in quantum optics consistently and algebraically. The new creation and annihilation operators of the Pegg-Barnett type phase operator theory are defined by using the cyclic representations and these operators degenerate to those of the ordinary oscillator in the classical limit q->1.
