description: This study focuses on investigating how the PED (Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea) virus influenced the production efficiency of swine industry in Taiwan. A total 96 valid sample data were collected during March of 2014. The Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was adopted to evaluate production efficiency before, and after, the PED events. Results show that the PED events in Taiwan had weakened overall technical efficiency (TE) about 8.6%. Large scale farms, older farms, and Central area appeared to be the most heavily impacted. Meanwhile, the reproductive rate of Taiwanese hog farms was found to exhibit a polarization in that some farms were producing at a high efficiency, while others were not. Lastly, the percentage change in production efficiency in the DEA estimation are very close to the percentage changes in inventory on farms reported by government. This may imply that the DEA can be further discussed regarding the capability of estimation.

description: This study attempts to investigate Chinese rural consumer online expenditures and factors explaining their purchasing decisions. Through a survey of rural consumers in China, we investigate their perceptions and attitudes on online shopping, such as the most often purchased items, reasons of shopping online, the most favorite online store, the most often used payment method, online expenditures, online shopping frequencies, and daily online viewing activities. Our results show that if consumer incomes are mainly from migrant labors or local non-agriculture related small businesses, they will shop online more frequently. If consumers’ main monthly expenditures are medical expenses and clothing, they will spend 74 and 57 yuan less per month, respectively, to shop online. The more time consumers spend on online activities, the more frequently they will purchase online, and the more money they will spend on online shopping.

description: We study the dynamics of the synchronization transition (ST) of one-dimensional coupled map lattices. For the Bernoulli map it was recently found by Ahlers and Pikovsky (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 88}, 254101 (2002)) that the ST belongs to the directed percolation (DP) universality class. Spreading dynamics confirms such an identification, only for a certain class of synchronized configurations. For homogeneous configurations spreading exponents $η$ and $δ$ are different than DP exponents but their sum equals to the corresponding sum of DP exponents. Such a relation is typical to some models with infinitely many absorbing states. Moreover, we calculate the spreading exponents for the tent map for which the ST belongs to the bounded Kardar-Parisi-Zheng (BKPZ) universality class. Our estimation of spreading exponents are consistent with the hyperscaling relation. Finally, we examine the asymmetric tent map. For small asymmetry the ST remains of the BKPZ type. However, for large asymmetry a different critical behaviour appears with exponents being relatively close to the ones of DP.

description: Malicious software is detected and classified by either static analysis or dynamic analysis. In static analysis, malware samples are reverse engineered and analyzed so that signatures of malware can be constructed. These techniques can be easily thwarted through polymorphic, metamorphic malware, obfuscation and packing techniques, whereas in dynamic analysis malware samples are executed in a controlled environment using the sandboxing technique, in order to model the behavior of malware. In this paper, we have analyzed Petya, Spyeye, VolatileCedar, PAFISH etc. through Agent-based and Agentless dynamic sandbox systems in order to investigate and benchmark their efficiency in advanced malware detection.

description: A major challenge in the analysis of micro level spatial interaction is to distinguish actual interactions from the effects of spatially correlated omitted variables. We approach this problem by considering a spatially lagged explanatory model (SLX) employing two spatial weighting matrices differentiating between local and regional neighbourhoods. We empirically analyse spatial interaction between individual farms in Norway and additionally perform Monte Carlo simulations exploring the model’s performance under different data settings. Results show that including two spatial weighting matrices can indeed reduce the bias resulting from omitted variables. In the empirical application, it allows identifying different significant interaction effects.

description: The asymmetric simple inclusion process (ASIP) --- a lattice-gas model for unidirectional transport with irreversible aggregation --- has been proposed as an inclusion counterpart of the asymmetric simple exclusion process and as a batch service counterpart of the tandem Jackson network. To date, analytical tractability of the model has been limited: while the average particle density in the model is easy to compute, very little is known about its joint occupancy distribution. To partially bridge this gap, we study occupancy correlations in the ASIP. We take an analytical approach to this problem and derive an exact formula for the covariance matrix of the steady-state occupancy vector. We verify the validity of this formula numerically in small ASIP systems, where Monte-Carlo simulations can provide reliable estimates for correlations in reasonable time, and further use it to draw a comprehensive picture of spatial occupancy correlations in ASIP systems of arbitrary size.

description: The focus of this study is to explore the issue of scope insensitivity concerning two different elicitation formats with regard to differences in preferences distributions. For this purpose, we apply choice experiment (CE) and damage schedule (DM) methods to elicit preferences for different child’s health risk reductions in school in Thailand. The data comes from 1,116 parents who have at least one child attending school from prepared kindergarten to grade 9. Empirical evidences first suggest that these two methods provide the same preferences of respondents on the most preferred and the least preferred of risk reduction issues. However, scope insensitivity occurs for some risk reductions issues elicited by CE. Namely, willingness to pay of higher level of risk reduction and those of lower level of risk reduction in the same issue are statistically indifferent. On the other hand, there is no occurrence of scope insensitivity in all risk reduction issues obtained by DM. This pattern is still unchanged even when the sample is separately analyzed by socio-economic factors such as education and income.

description: This paper investigates the effect of a tariff reduction on the world's grain self-sufficiency which is a main component in defining the food security. We develop a theoretical model in which trade, tariff and supply-demand equations are explicitly included, with the classification of food-importing and exporting countries. Empirical equations are estimated using the system generalized method-of-moments (GMM) approach to control endogeneity problem. Estimation results based on panel data for 150 countries over 17 years show that world grain price and world's self-sufficiency rate(SSR) are positively correlated, but the country level GDP per capita, population, agricultural input price, and prices of substitutes for grain have negative effects on world's SSR. The effects of domestic tariff of food-importing countries on the world’s grain SSR are estimated to be positive. Using the estimated coefficients on the empirical equations, we derived the elasticities of grain SSR with respect to the tariff level of food-importing countries. Those are in the ranges of 0.221-0.387. These results support the argument that tariff reduction has a negative effect on the importer’s food SSR.

Fermi surface complexity, effective mass, and conduction band alignment in n-type thermoelectric Mg3Sb2-xBix from first principles calculations

description: Using first principles calculations, we study the conduction band alignment, effective mass, and Fermi surface complexity factor of n-type Mg3Sb2-xBix (x = 0, 1, and 2) from the full ab initio band structure. We find that with increasing the Bi content the K and M band minima moves away from the conduction band minimum CB1 while the singly-degenerate $Γ$ band minimum shifts rapidly downward and approaches the conduction band minimum. But the favorable six-fold degenerate CB1 band minimum keeps dominating the conduction band minimum and there is no band crossing between the $Γ$ and CB1 band minima. In addition, we show that the connection of the CB1 carrier pockets with the energy level close to the band minimum M can strongly enhance the carrier pocket anisotropy and Fermi surface complexity factor, which is likely the electronic origin for the local maximum in the theoretical power factor. Our calculations also show that the band gap, density of states effective mass, Seebeck coefficient, and Fermi surface complexity factor decrease with increasing the Bi content, which is unfavorable to the electrical transport. However, reducing the conductivity effective mass with increasing the Bi content is beneficial to the electrical transport by improving carrier mobility and weighted mobility as long as the detrimental bipolar effect is insignificant. As a result, in comparison with n-type Mg3Sb2, n-type Mg3SbBi shows higher power factors and a much lower optimal carrier concentration for the theoretical power factor at 300 K, which can be easily achieved by the experiment.

description: Where in previous decades Palestinian cultural production was characterized by the use of documentary strategies and ‘revolutionary’ aesthetics, in the years since the failure of the so-called ‘peace process’ contemporary Palestinian art has become marked by a distinct shift toward the use of humour. This chapter investigates the impetus behind this turn toward humour in a context of ongoing Israeli occupation, accelerated neoliberalism, and the ‘NGO-ization’ of Palestine, whilst also making clear its capacity in the face of what Gil Hochberg describes as a ‘scopic regime’ where Palestinians experience an unfair distribution of visual rights under the weight of Israeli colonial violence. Framed by an understanding of Palestinian sovereignty as in a permanent state of ‘becoming’, this chapter begins by drawing discussion around the concept of ‘anticipatory aesthetics’, where humour is used not only to draw attention to the absence of Palestinian sovereignty, but also as a means of enacting Palestinian statehood. Focusing on the work of artist Khalil Rabah this chapter aims to reveal humour as means through which to think through one of the most urgent political issues of our age.

description: This paper describes the measurement of collective flow for charged particles in Au+Au collisions at sqrt{s_NN}} = 130 GeV using the PHOBOS detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). An azimuthal anisotropy is observed in the charged particle hit distribution in the PHOBOS multiplicity detector. This anisotropy is presented over a wide range of pseudorapidity (eta) for the first time at this energy. The size of the anisotropy (v_{2}) is thought to probe the degree of equilibration achieved in these collisions. The result here,averaged over momenta and particle species, is observed to reach 7% for peripheral collisions at mid-rapidity, falling off with centrality and increasing |eta|. Data are presented as a function of centrality for |eta|<1.0 and as a function of eta, averaged over centrality, in the angular region -5.0

description: In the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), one of the most challenging computational problems is expected to be finding and fitting charged-particle tracks during event reconstruction. The methods currently in use at the LHC are based on the Kalman filter. Such methods have shown to be robust and to provide good physics performance, both in the trigger and offline. In order to improve computational performance, we explored Kalman-filter-based methods for track finding and fitting, adapted for many-core SIMD and SIMT architectures. Our adapted Kalman-filter-based software has obtained significant parallel speedups using such processors, e.g., Intel Xeon Phi, Intel Xeon SP (Scalable Processors) and (to a limited degree) NVIDIA GPUs. Recently, an effort has started towards the integration of our software into the CMS software framework, in view of its exploitation for the Run III of the LHC. Prior reports have shown that our software allows in fact for some significant improvements over the existing framework in terms of computational performance with comparable physics performance, even when applied to realistic detector configurations and event complexity. Here, we demonstrate that in such conditions physics performance can be further improved with respect to our prior reports, while retaining the improvements in computational performance, by making use of the knowledge of the detector and its geometry.

subject: FOS: Sociology

description: This study uses sociological theories of gendered behavior to explore the impact of microfinance as a development intervention on women’s empowerment processes in Bangladesh. A mixed-method research design was used to analyze data from a survey (N= 331) and in-depth interviews (N= 40) with microfinance-recipient women, their husbands, as well as staff of microfinance institutions (MFIs). This study found that participation in microfinance programs did not alter gender norms nor empower women within their household or economically. The inter-generational reproduction of gender norms reaffirms men’s dominance over women in the household, including financial decision-making.

Dynamical Instability of Self-Tuning Solution with Antisymmetric Tensor Field
Creators: name: Medved, A. J. M.

Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We consider the dynamical stability of a static brane model that incorporates a three-index antisymmetric tensor field and has recently been proposed as a possible solution to the cosmological constant problem. Ultimately, we are able to establish the existence of time-dependent, purely gravitational perturbations. As a consequence, the static solution of interest is ``dangerously'' located at an unstable saddle point. This outcome is suggestive of a hidden fine tuning in what is an otherwise self-tuning model.

ewN2HDECAY - A program for the Calculation of Electroweak One-Loop Corrections to Higgs Decays in the Next-to-Minimal Two-Higgs-Doublet Model Including State-of-the-Art QCD Corrections

description: We present in this paper our new program package ewN2HDECAY for the calculation of the partial decay widths and branching ratios of the Higgs bosons of the Next-to-Minimal 2-Higgs Doublet Model (N2HDM). The N2HDM is based on a general CP-conserving 2HDM which is extended by a real scalar singlet field. The program computes the complete electroweak one-loop corrections to all non-loop-induced two-body on-shell Higgs boson decays in the N2HDM and combines them with the state-of-the-art QCD corrections that are already implemented in the existing program N2HDECAY. Most of the independent input parameters of the electroweak sector of the N2HDM are renormalized in an on-shell scheme. The soft-$\mathbb{Z}_2$-breaking squared mass scale $m_{12}^2$ and the vacuum expectation value $v_S$ of the $SU(2)_L$ singlet field, however, are renormalized with $\overline{\text{MS}}$ conditions, while for the four scalar mixing angles $α_i$ ($i=1,2,3$) and $β$ of the N2HDM, several different renormalization schemes are applied. By giving out the leading-order and the loop-corrected partial decay widths separately from the branching ratios, the program ewN2HDECAY not only allows for phenomenological analyses of the N2HDM at highest precision, it can also be used for a study of the impact of the electroweak corrections and the remaining theoretical uncertainty due to missing higher-order corrections based on a change of the renormalization scheme. The input parameters are then consistently calculated with a parameter conversion routine when switching from one renormalization scheme to the other. The latest version of the program ewN2HDECAY can be downloaded from the URL \href{https://github.com/marcel-krause/ewN2HDECAY}{https://github.com/marcel-krause/ewN2HDECAY}.
Quantum axiomatics and a theorem of M.P. Soler

description: Three of the traditional quantum axioms (orthocomplementation, orthomodularity and the covering law) show incompatibilities with two products introduced by Aerts for the description of joint entities. Inspired by Soler's theorem and Holland's AUG axiom, we propose a property of 'plane transitivity', which also characterizes classical Hilbert spaces among infinite dimensional orthomodular spaces, as a possible partial substitute for the 'defective' axioms.

description: High energy heavy-ion collisions are proposed as a novel means to constrain stringently the high density (HD) behaviour of nuclear symmetry energy. Within an isospin-dependent hadronic transport model, it is shown for the first time that the isospin asymmetry of the HD nuclear matter formed in high energy heavy-ion collisions is uniquely determined by the HD behaviour of nuclear symmetry energy. Experimental signatures in two sensitive probes, i.e., $π^-$ to $π^+$ ratio and neutron-proton differential collective flow, are also investigated.

description: We show that the natural mathematical structure to describe a physical entity by means of its states and its properties within the Geneva-Brussels approach is that of a state property system. We prove that the category of state property systems (and morphisms), SP, is equivalent to the category of closure spaces (and continuous maps), Cls. We show the equivalence of the 'state determination axiom' for state property systems with the 'T0 separation axiom' for closure spaces. We also prove that the category SP0 of state determined state property systems is equivalent to the category L0 of based complete lattices. In this sense the equivalence of SP and Cls generalizes the equivalence of Cls0 and L0, proven in Erne 1984.

description: We initiate a systematic study of natural differential operators in Riemannian geometry whose leading symbols are not of Laplace type. In particular, we define a discrete leading symbol for such operators which may be computed pointwise, or from spectral asymptotics. We indicate how this can be applied to the computation of another kind of spectral asymptotics, namely asymptotic expansions of fundamental solutions, and to the computation of conformally covariant operators.

description: In recent decades, global society has paid growing attention to tropical deforestation as it contributes significantly to global warming. One promising way of addressing the issue is to create economic incentives to protect forests. In this study, we estimate the opportunity costs of reducing legal deforestation in Mato Grosso of Brazil, based on an econometric model using fine resolution spatial data and administrative data on properties registered in the rural land registry. We find that, inside the properties that have rights to legally clear forest area, most projected demand for deforestation will fit within the legal limitations, making it essential to establish additional positive economic incentives for forest protection. Also in these properties, for the period of 2014-2030, total incentives of about US$ 279 million could reduce 77% of projected legal deforestation, from 278,257 ha to 64,287 ha. Certain incentives could come from the properties with forest restoration requirements under Brazil’s forest code, since we found that our modeled incentives can only cover about 7% of the forest restoration requirement in those properties through passive land abandonment. As a result, active reforestation or purchasing the Environmental Reserve Quota from properties with legal deforestation allowance may become attractive alternatives.
microRNA-199a downregulation alleviates hyperuricemic nephropathy via the PPARγ/β-catenin axis

description: Hyperuricemia always develops into hyperuricemic nephropathy (HN). The role of microRNA (miR) in HN is less studied. We aimed to discuss the role of miR-199a in HN. The expression of miR-199a and PPARγ in renal tissues of HN rats was detected. The targeting relation between miR-199a and PPARγ was verified. The contents of SCr, UA, BUN, and mALB, renal injury-relevant biomarkers were detected, and the pathological changes of renal tissue and renal interstitial fibrosis were observed by histological staining. After miR-199a and PPARγ knockdown, the contents of SCr, BUN, and mALB and renal interstitial fibrosis were estimated. Collectively, overexpression of miR-199a aggravated the renal injury in HN rats. By contrast, inhibition of miR-199a weakened renal injury, as evidenced by decreased contents of SCr, UA, BUN, and mALB, and mitigated renal interstitial fibrosis. miR-199a targeted PPARγ. Silencing of PPARγ upregulated the levels of downstream genes of β-catenin and the contents of SCr, UA, BUN, and mALB and deteriorated renal interstitial fibrosis. Moreover, the silencing of PPARγ blocked the alleviative effects of miR-199a inhibitor on the renal injury. Overall, miR-199a targets PPARγ and activates the β-catenin pathway, thus aggravating HN, which might provide a future target for the treatment of HN.

description: Research on style transfer and domain translation has clearly demonstrated the ability of deep learning-based algorithms to manipulate images in terms of artistic style. More recently, several attempts have been made to extend such approaches to music (both symbolic and audio) in order to enable transforming musical style in a similar manner. In this study, we focus on symbolic music with the goal of altering the 'style' of a piece while keeping its original 'content'. As opposed to the current methods, which are inherently restricted to be unsupervised due to the lack of 'aligned' data (i.e. the same musical piece played in multiple styles), we develop the first fully supervised algorithm for this task. At the core of our approach lies a synthetic data generation scheme which allows us to produce virtually unlimited amounts of aligned data, and hence avoid the above issue. In view of this data generation scheme, we propose an encoder-decoder model for translating symbolic music accompaniments between a number of different styles. Our experiments show that our models, although trained entirely on synthetic data, are capable of producing musically meaningful accompaniments even for real (non-synthetic) MIDI recordings.

description: We report experiments on defect-tracking in the state of undulation chaos observed in thermal convection of an inclined fluid layer. We characterize the ensemble of defect trajectories according to their velocities, relative positions, diffusion, and gain and loss rates. In particular, the defects exhibit incidents of rapid transverse motion which result in power law distributions for a number of quantitative measures. We examine connections between this behavior and Lévy flights and anomalous diffusion. In addition, we describe time-reversal and system size invariance for defect creation and annihilation rates.
