description: The development of deep learning-based models for the compression of hyperspectral images (HSIs) has recently attracted great attention in remote sensing due to the sharp growing of hyperspectral data archives. Most of the existing models achieve either spectral or spatial compression, and do not jointly consider the spatio-spectral redundancies present in HSIs. To address this problem, in this paper we focus our attention on the High Fidelity Compression (HiFiC) model (which is proven to be highly effective for spatial compression problems) and adapt it to perform spatio-spectral compression of HSIs. In detail, we introduce two new models: i) HiFiC using Squeeze and Excitation (SE) blocks (denoted as HiFiC$_{SE}$); and ii) HiFiC with 3D convolutions (denoted as HiFiC$_{3D}$) in the framework of compression of HSIs. We analyze the effectiveness of HiFiC$_{SE}$ and HiFiC$_{3D}$ in compressing the spatio-spectral redundancies with channel attention and inter-dependency analysis. Experimental results show the efficacy of the proposed models in performing spatio-spectral compression, while reconstructing images at reduced bitrates with higher reconstruction quality. The code of the proposed models is publicly available at https://git.tu-berlin.de/rsim/HSI-SSC .

title: The evolution of the concept of the Buddha from early Buddhism to the formulation of the Trikaaya theory.
Creators: name: Xing, Guang
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 2002

description: Of the three bodies of the Buddha, the sambhogakaya was the last to have been formulated (circa, the third to fourth century CE) To date, scholars have not established any substantiated theory with regard to its origins. It is with this aim that I began my research on the subject. In earliest Buddhist literature, the concept of the Buddha reveals two aspects: a human identity and a superhuman character. The rationalist Sarvastivadins developed their belief in the human Buddha while the Mahasarnghikas relied more on pure faith and developed their concept of the transcendental Buddha endowed with superhuman qualities. It is on this basis that the two-body theory of the Buddha was formulated. Most probably the originator belongs to the Sarvastivada school and flourished before the composition of the Mahdprajndparamita-sastra. From the fourth chapter onwards, I have traced the origins and developments of each of the three bodies. The concept of the dharmakaya, derived from the Buddha's teachings collected in the corpus of early Buddhist literature, was further developed as a collection of pure dharmas by the Sarvastivadins. It finally evolved into the cosmic body, an impersonal principle supporting all phenomena through its identification with the tathata which pervades the whole universe in Mahayana Buddhism. It is on this basis that the Mahayanists identified the dharmakaya with other key concepts such as the Buddhadhatu and the Tathdgatagarbha. The sambhogakaya theory arose as a result of the debate on the rupakaya of the Buddha. Initially, the Sarvastivadins and the Mahasamghikas debated on the transcendental qualities of the Buddha. This later led to the problem of the short lifespan of Sakyamuni when Mahayanists increasingly emphasized the great merit of the Buddha gained through bodhisattva practice. The formulation of the sambhogakaya was arguably a solution to this complex problem, basing itself as precedent on the teachings of the early and middle Mahayana sutras. The nirmanakaya doctrine originated from the early Buddhist theory of the mind-made body produced through the supernatural power of rddhi. It had probably first been conceived by the Mahasarnghikas when they idealised the Buddha as transcendental. The Mahayanists accepted this concept in its entirety and further developed it into that of the nirmanakaya. Many scholars think that the development of the concept of the Buddha is mainly driven by faith in Gautama, but our study of the subject shows that philosophical thought also plays a very important role.
title: Women's education in Turkey (1860-1950) and its impact upon journalism and women's journals.
Creators: name: Smallwood, Valerie Margaret
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 2002

description: This thesis explores certain under-researched aspects of the socio-cultural development of late Ottoman Turkish and early republican women from the 1860s until 1950. By concentrating on females, the research aims to produce a more inclusive picture of how society developed in this period. In order to attempt this, the research focuses on four main topics which are presented in the following format: an introduction, four chapters, conclusions, appendix and a bibliography. The introduction sets the research within a historical framework and states its broad aims. Chapter One looks at various attempts to broaden female State education, culminating in a study of the Koy Enstituleri (Village Institutes). Chapter Two consists of several profiles of female Turkish journalists, active from the late 19th century onwards, who had benefited from improved State education. Chapter Three is a survey of the Ottoman women's press from 1869 onwards and a case study of inci magazine, published between 1919 and 1923. Chapter Four consists of a case study of Sabiha Sertel, a left-wing journalist who was active in Turkey from 1919 until 1950. The conclusion looks at the aims of the thesis and evaluates the material included in the four main subject areas. An appraisal of the educational reforms for women also includes a comparison with appropriate educational developments in England. The conclusion assesses both the value of journalism as an additional career path for educated Turkish women and their importance as role models. The Ottoman women's press is appraised to gauge how far it reflected the social, economic and cultural development of not only women, but society in general. The importance of the writing of Sabiha Sertel to the history of Turkish journalism is assessed and, finally, suggestions are made as to where further research could add to the material included in this thesis.

title: The major clause types of Egyptian colloquial Arabic: A participant-process approach.
Creators: name: El-Rabbat, Amin Hussein
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1978

description: The ultimate aim of this study is to present a classification and a description of the clause types common among educated speakers of E.C. Arabic and used by them in their normal speech situations of everyday life within the framework of systemic grammar. Apart from the "Introduction", the thesis falls into three Parts, comprising thirteen chapters. Part I "Theoretical Orientation" briefly traces the origin of the theory applied in this study and its components in an attempt to set the background against which the analysis is carried out. It comprises three chapters which deal with: (1) The Primitives of the Theory; (2) Components of Systemic Grammar; (3) Transitivity in Hallidayan Grammar. In Part II "Clause Types" we give a classification of ECA Clauses in terms of Halliday's three types of process: action, mental and relational process; also given is an account of the participant roles and the structural elements to which they correspond. This classification depends basically on the type of process expressed by the verb-root or in the absence of a verb the relationship obtaining between the noun-phrases concerned. In other words, we deal here with a "Classification-System", which is in part, at least, lexical. This Part comprises the following chapters: (4) Action Clauses (i) Extensive; (5) Action Clauses (ii) Descriptive, Stative; (6) Action Clauses (iii) Semantic Systems; (7) Mental Process Clauses; (8) Relational Clauses. In Part III "Transitivity Systems'' the clauses are analysed along the axis of systems involving the relation of transitivity roles to the process types concerned. These systems are 2iiore purely grammatical than the clause types (process types) described under Part II which are, in a sense, a semantico-syntactic classification. In other words, the 'Systems' treated in this Part involve a system of choices, or a "Commutation- System" inherently and in most cases in fact applicable to more than one process type. The systems dealt with separately in Chapters 9-13, which this Part comprises are: (9) Causative V. non-causative; (10) Emphatic V. non-emphatic; (11) Reciprocal V. non-reciprocal; (12) Benefactive V. non-benefactive; (13) Operative V. Receptive and thematization. We also include a diagram which represents the main process types and the transitivity systems which have emerged from this study.
title: The process of technical change in agriculture: The case of the Saga Plain area of Japan, 1868-1939.
Creators: name: Francks, Penelope Gillian
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1978

description: This thesis analyses the micro-economic process of technical change in one particularly successful agricultural area of Japan, the Saga Plain, between 1868 and 1939. It does so within a framework which relates the characteristics of the new techniques selected to the prevailing technical, economic and social environment, through the institutional mechanisms for the development of new technology. These characteristics themselves then influence the diffusion of new techniques and their effects. The Saga Plain differs from much of the rest of Japan in its natural environment. Hence the technology employed in paddy rice cultivation at the beginning of the period also differed, especially in methods of irrigation. Economic and social relationships between households centered on arrangements to meet the heavy labour and capital requirements of the irrigation technology and to ensure the subsistence of cultivators. The technical and economic system was disrupted by the rapid industrialisation of nearby areas after 1900. This raised the demand for marketed rice and caused a substantial outflow of small-scale cultivators. Shortage of hired labour forced larger cultivators to split up their holdings, and the proportion of middle-sized cultivators increased. Such farmers were under pressure to find ways of lessening the labour requirements for irrigation and raising output. The solution to their problems was developed by local government and extension officials, who assisted the manufacturers in the design of an electric pump. This innovation was rapidly diffused through communal purchase of the pumps by village organisations. It was the breakthrough which permitted the adoption of other new techniques, leading to substantial rises in yields and labour productivity. It intensified the trend towards increasing proportions of medium-scale family farms. The study suggests conclusions as to the institutional requirements for the development of appropriate techniques and the relationship between technical and structural change in agriculture.

description: Detecting Bug Inducing Commit (BIC) or Just in Time (JIT) defect prediction using Machine Learning (ML) based models requires tabulated feature values extracted from the source code or historical maintenance data of a software system. Existing studies have utilized meta-data from source code repositories (we named them GitHub Statistics or GS), n-gram-based source code text processing, and developer's information (e.g., the experience of a developer) as the feature values in ML-based bug detection models. However, these feature values do not represent the source code syntax styles or patterns that a developer might prefer over available valid alternatives provided by programming languages. This investigation proposed a method to extract features from its source code syntax patterns to represent software commits and investigate whether they are helpful in detecting bug proneness in software systems. We utilize six manually and two automatically labeled datasets from eight open-source software projects written in Java, C++, and Python programming languages. Our datasets contain 642 manually labeled and 4,014 automatically labeled buggy and non-buggy commits from six and two subject systems, respectively. The subject systems contain a diverse number of revisions, and they are from various application domains. Our investigation shows the inclusion of the proposed features increases the performance of detecting buggy and non-buggy software commits using five different machine learning classification models. Our proposed features also perform better in detecting buggy commits using the Deep Belief Network generated features and classification model. This investigation also implemented a state-of-the-art tool to compare the explainability of predicted buggy commits using our proposed and traditional features and found that our proposed features provide better reasoning about buggy.....
title: A formal and semantic study of the Igbo verbal piece.
Creators: name: Oji, N.
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1978

description: The present research is the study of the Igbo verbs in general, and the Achi dialect in particular. It concentrates on the forms suid meanings of the verbs. It, therefore, makes original contributions to the linguistic study of the language from end to end, but especially in the areas of lexical and syntactic differences between the Achi dialect and the Onicha and Owere dialects, the semantic and serial classification of the infinitives and their uses, the five auxiliaries (Most works on Igbo have hitherto recognised only ga and na as the auxiliaries of the language. It is only Professor Carnochan (1966) who added ji to ga and na), the lexical structure in which is studied the polysemic and homonymous nature of the verbs on one hand, and the synonyms and antonyms on the other. The study comprises an introduction and seven chapters. The introduction sets out the peculiarities of the dialect from lexical, syntactic and semantic view points, and indicates that tone is a significant feature of the Igbo language. Chapter I provides an insight into the morphology of the verb, roots and the affixes, and the serialisation of the suffixes. Chapter II studies the finite and non-finite verb forms and meanings. It embodies the uses of the infinitives, the distributional convergence and divergence between the infinitives and the gerunds, and the tonal differences between them. Chapter III studies the auxiliaries and their uses, and shows that they can be used as full verbs. Chapter IV deals with the verbs in terms of mood and tense in positive and negative sentences and paradigms. Chapter V discusses the verb phrase in simple and complex sentences, and in special registers including idioms and "depejorativization". Chapter VI deals with the lexical structure of the verbs exemplified by polysemy and homonymy; and Chapter VII continues semantic relations in terms of synonymy and antonymy.

title: Problems of employment and manpower planning in the Sudan, with particular reference to the agricultural sector.
Creators: name: Mohamed, Abdel Fattah el Haj
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1978

description: The theme of this study is employment problems in the Sudan particularly its agricultural sector. The subject of employment in less developed countries is of considerable concern where it raises manifold issues. Some of these are outlined in the first chapter. Then an attempt is made (chapter two) to identify the dimensions of the Sudan employment problems and their possible causes. Data from different sources suggest a low rate of overall unemployment. In contrast to this seemingly favourable situation, pervasive underemployment in traditional agriculture is disclosed. In dealing with such a problem from the national point of view the tricky issue of combining growth with equity poses itself. The treatment of employment in the Sudan development planning exercises was found to be seriously inadequate (chapter three). Employment was there viewed more or less as a by-product of economic development, The implicit strategy of growth maximisation seems to have accentuated dualism between modern and traditional economies within agriculture. With a population about 15 million in 1973 and an average density of six persons per square kilometre, the Sudan may have seemed to be free from any threat of overpopulation, Demographic data are considered in chapter four in order to investigate various population problems related to growth, composition and distribution. The following two chapters lead on to an examination of the labour force, three-quarters of which has been engaged in agriculture. An apparent abundance of labour supply in the country as a whole is difficult to reconcile with the acute and costly seasonal manpower shortages experienced in modern agriculture. Migration and seasonal labour mobility may thus be crucial to combining growth with equity. Possibly for the first time as far as the Sudan is concerned, labour migration is here empirically studied from the point of view of the sending areas. Besides the demographic structure of sample rural areas, observations related to earnings and productivity in traditional sector are considered. Finally the threads of the preceding themes are brought together, summarising the findings and putting them into perspective. A few suggestions for further research are indicated.

title: Becoming Dagongmei: Body, identity and transgression in Reform China.
Creators: name: Pun, Ngai
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1998

description: My study focuses on the working lives of Chinese women in the light of China's attempt to incorporate its socialist system into the world economy in the Reform era. My cardinal concern is the formation of a new social body - dagongmei - in contemporary China. The great transformation experienced during the reform era creates significant social changes, and the lives of dagongmei are the living embodiments of such paradoxical processes and experiences. The first part of my thesis looks at how the desire of the peasant girls - the desire of moving out of rural China to the urban industrial zones - is produced to meet the demands of industrial capitalism. The second part, based on an ethnographic study of an electronic factory in Shenzhen, studies the processes of constitution of the subject - dagongmei - in the workplace. First, I look at the disciplines and techniques of the production machine deployed over the female bodies, and see how these young and rural bodies are turned into docile and productive workers. Secondly, the politics of identity and differences is analyzed, to see how the existing social relations and local cultural practices are manipulated to craft abject subjects. Thirdly, the processes of sexualizing the abject subjects in relation to cultural discourses and language politics is unfolded. The final part examines the relation of domination and resistance inside the workplace. Dream, scream and bodily pain are seen as the actual form of struggle against the enormous power of capitalist relations in Chinese society. In short, my study explores the process, the desire, the struggle of young rural girls to become dagongmei; and in the rite of their passages, unravels how these female bodies experience the politics and tension produced by a hybrid mixture of the state socialist and capitalist relations.

description: The name Hu Shi (1891-1962) would inevitable arise in the minds of scholars and students of Chinese intellectual history who wish to trace the development of Chinese modern thinking which encompasses such ideas as scientific attitude, democracy, cultural criticism and freedom of speech. Although studies on Hu are quite abundant, it is obvious that more profound research has yet to be done, especially since a prodigious amount of primary sources has appeared in recent years. This dissertation has three objectives: (1) to show that Hu's thought was more complicated than had been reviewed, (2) to analyse the contribution and limitation of his Pragmatic approach to Chinese scholarship and politics; (3) to explore the dilemmas and mental tensions of Hu both as a intellectual and a scholar. My study will first provide a brief account of Hu's education in China and in America with emphasis on Hu's adoption of Pragmatism. Then I shall recount how Hu spearheaded the New Cultural Movement by his application of Pragmatic and scientific approaches to the Literary Revolution and the reform of Chinese scholarship. The "scientism" in Hu's thought is illustrated in Chapter III, which will be followed by a discussion on Hu's predicament in his effort to integrate the concept of "use" (yong) of Chinese classical philosophy into his Pragmatism and how he used "scientific method" as an excuse to justify his textual research. I shall also argue that although Hu was apparently a leading advocator of Westernisation, he was indeed profoundly imbued in Chinese philosophical legacy. The last two chapters will focus on Hu's dilemmas as a political critic and the ideological conflicts between his political stand and that of Chinese Communists and explain why the conflict could be said to be part of the definition of Pragmatism. Nevertheless, my study will attempt to prove that, ultimately, Hu's career as scholar and thinker was determined by the course of modern Chinese history that was beyond his capability to alter.

description: Botswana has the unusual reputation of being the only country in Southern Africa that has experienced consistently high rates of rapid economic growth since independence. Researchers emphasise this exceptionality, and many times the case of Botswana has been invoked to support the thesis that the feasibility of development in the Third World hinges on the existence of compatible political democratic structures and economic developmental efforts. The dynamics of internal development, however, have by and large been neglected, giving rise to undue and often misleading generalisations. This thesis is a critique of the Botswana postcolonial development model. It deploys a structural approach to dissect and analyse the economic development of Botswana in an historical perspective. Development literature is replete with macro-economic analyses that purport to illustrate how the Botswana state achieved optimal economic gains through prudent management of the economy and political liberalisation. However, there is, as yet, little else to indicate how the state has broadened the set of beneficiaries - especially amongst the peasantry. The present study demonstrates how agrarian transformation, stimulated by widespread borehole technology in the face of consistently available revenue from a booming mining sector, has influenced social relations of production and class differentiation in Botswana. It shows how the state ruthlessly exploited available revenue to sustain its hegemony - ensuring the preservation of a minority ruling class coalition and the marginalisation of well over two-thirds of the population in the process. The analysis thus demonstrates that Botswana, just like other mineral-rich African countries, has failed to direct development towards the rural sector. It essentially debunks the myth surrounding the exceptionality of the Botswana state.

description: In-Memory Computing (IMC) has emerged as a promising paradigm for energy-efficient, throughput-efficient and area-efficient machine learning at the edge. However, the differences in hardware architectures, array dimensions, and fabrication technologies among published IMC realizations have made it difficult to grasp their relative strengths. Moreover, previous studies have primarily focused on exploring and benchmarking the peak performance of a single IMC macro rather than full system performance on real workloads. This paper aims to address the lack of a quantitative comparison of Analog In-Memory Computing (AIMC) and Digital In-Memory Computing (DIMC) processor architectures. We propose an analytical IMC performance model that is validated against published implementations and integrated into a system-level exploration framework for comprehensive performance assessments on different workloads with varying IMC configurations. Our experiments show that while DIMC generally has higher computational density than AIMC, AIMC with large macro sizes may have better energy efficiency than DIMC on convolutional-layers and pointwise-layers, which can exploit high spatial unrolling. On the other hand, DIMC with small macro size outperforms AIMC on depthwise-layers, which feature limited spatial unrolling opportunities inside a macro.

description: This study takes the market-place as a focus for looking at the changes which have taken place during the course of this century in relation to the development of the state and capitalism. The market-place is viewed in terms of the relationships between four main trading groups. These are maize and beans, clothes and manufactured goods, fruits and vegetables, and livestock and bananas. The first section of each chapter begins by locating each trading group in terms of its demographic and economic features; gender, age, marriage status, education, church membership, capital, scources of capital, mobility, assets investments and so forth. It then develops the characteristics which individuate each group with reference to cultural and historical data from the community of which the market is a part. Together, the data from the market and from the surrounding community allow the uncovering of four ontological perpectives each with a dominant ethos and dynamic. The next two sections of each chapter utilise these four ontologies as theoretical frames from which to examine the processes of state and capitalist development in the areas in which the market is located. Each chapter finishes by returning to the market-place where the ontological dynamics which have emerged are contextualised in the transformative process of action and agency in the lives of individuals. The treatment of the market as a site of ontological resonance allows for the development of a set of theoretical models which are informed both by my own background and anthropological understandings and by the understandings of the people among whom my fieldwork was based. This leads to a theoretical framework which goes some way towards transcending the dichotomies of theory and practice, of objectivity and subjectivity, with which social anthropology has, for sometime, been concerned. In addition, the holistic nature of the ontologies which I uncover allows me to account for their power to shape historical action. This leads me to a critique of some currents in postmodernist anthropology which, in deconstructing cultural and theoretical 'wholes', often fail to deal with powerfulness of human experience and action in the world. At the same time the plurality of the ontological constructs which have emerged through my research has led me to avoid taking an essentialist view of the relationship between system and subject and hence of the process of state and capitalist development. I understand the properties of both holism and plurality at the level of ontology to stem from its connection to an overall principle of the universal. It is the invocation of this principle which informs the analysis, subject matter and method of my thesis.
