description: Topics play an important role in the global organisation of a conversation as what is currently discussed constrains the possible contributions of the participant. Understanding the way topics are organised in interaction would provide insight on the structure of dialogue beyond the sequence of utterances. However, studying this high-level structure is a complex task that we try to approach by first segmenting dialogues into smaller topically coherent sets of utterances. Understanding the interactions between these segments would then enable us to propose a model of topic organisation at a dialogue level. In this paper we work with open-domain conversations and try to reach a comparable level of accuracy as recent machine learning based topic segmentation models but with a formal approach. The features we identify as meaningful for this task help us understand better the topical structure of a conversation.

The scaling relation between the mass of supermassive black holes and the kinetic energy of random motions of the host galaxies
Creators: name: Mancini, Luigi

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Thanks to the angular resolution of modern telescopes and kinematic models, the existence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the inner part of galaxies has been established on quite solid grounds. A possible correlation between the mass of SMBHs and the evolutionary state of their host galaxies is expected. Based on the recent 2D decomposition of mid-infrared Spiter/IRAC images of local galaxies with M_bh measurements, we investigated various scaling laws, studying what the best predictor of the mass of the central SMBHs is. We focused on the M_bh-M_G sigma^2 law, the relation between the mass of SMBHs and the kinetic energy of random motions of the corresponding host galaxies. In order to find the best fit for each of the scaling laws examined, we performed a least-squares regression of M_bh on x for the considered sample of galaxies, x being a whatever known parameter of the galaxy bulge. Our analysis shows that M_bh-M_G sigma^2 law fits the examined experimental data successfully as much as the other known scaling laws and shows a value of chi^2 better than the others, a result which is consistent with previous determinations. This means that a combination of sigma and M_G could be necessary to drive the correlations between M_bh and other bulge properties. This issue has been investigated by a careful analysis of the residuals of the various relations. In order to avoid rushed conclusions on galaxy activity and evolution, the indirect inferring of M_bh from the kinetic energy of random motions should be considered, especially when applied to higher redshift galaxies. This statement is suggested by a reanalysis of the SDSS data used to study the SMBH growth in the nearby Universe. Adopting the M_bh-M_G sigma^2 relation instead of the M_bh-sigma, a radio-quiet/radio-loud dichotomy appears in the SMBH mass distribution of the corresponding SDSS early-type AGN galaxies.

Power Negotiations in the Field: Ethical and Practical Challenges of Field Research on Party Politics in Hybrid Regime Settings
Creators: name: Sinan Baykan, Toygar
Publisher: name: International Quarterly for Asian Studies
Year: 2023

description: This article reflects upon the author’s long fieldwork experience on party politics in the hybrid political regime of Turkey. It illustrates the ethical and practical challenges that the political context poses for research and elaborates on two interrelated issues. Firstly, the observations and findings that researchers may obtain and present in such a polarised and semi-authoritarian setting can be remarkably different from the expectations of the research participants. This poses a challenge to the principles of not doing harm and of informed consent, and requires researchers to negotiate these principles in order to convey meaningful research outcomes while being uncompromising with respect to the principle of anonymity/confidentiality. The other dilemma is that, in settings where politics imposes itself on bureaucratic and legal institutions as well as on the economy, researchers may find themselves in extremely vulnerable positions before powerful research participants. To what extent should the researcher tolerate being treated badly and how should the researcher deal with such contexts? In this article, the author proposes that Max Weber’s recommendation in his article “Science as Vocation” – to avoid extremely politicised positions – still remains relevant in ethical and practical respects.

Year: 2023

description: The perspective of time towards migration and displacement has emerged as a key research interest. However, less attention has been granted to the role that time plays in shaping methodological and ethical considerations in research settings. This paper develops this point by reflecting on the authors’ research process with older East Timorese adults living amid ongoing displacement conditions for over two decades in West Timor, Indonesia. Examining their ageing experiences provides insight into what it means to live through displacement over time and space. However, older people are among the groups of displaced populations considered most vulnerable, requiring the researcher to consider particular methodological sensitivity. This paper argues that understandings of time, reflexivity and the ways lives are linked in relation to people’s later-life experiences in exile can provide useful tools for dealing with ethical and pragmatic dilemmas.

title: Da «Permanent Food» a «Toilet Paper». Residui digestivi dell’immaginario quotidiano secondo Maurizio Cattelan
Creators: name: Pansanelli, Valentina
Publisher: name: DAR | Dipartimento delle Arti
Year: 2023

description: Maurizio Cattelan, nato a Padova nel 1960, è oggi considerato uno degli artisti contemporanei più famosi al mondo. Autore di opere irriverenti e dal forte impatto visivo, si è imposto nel panorama artistico come grande interprete della quotidianità in continuo mutamento. Dalle opere dell’esordio, fino al pensionamento del 2011 e a quelle dei vari ritorni, non ha mai smesso di generare lavori in grado di raggiungere un pubblico sempre più eterogeneo. Il suo nutrimento continuo di immagini lo porta alla realizzazione di diversi progetti ‘extracurriculari’ e alla genesi di due riviste molto originali: «Permanent Food» e «Toilet Paper». Queste si qualificano per essere rispettivamente magazine di ‘seconda’ e di ‘prima generazione’, presupponendo da un lato una riappropriazione e un riuso di immagini già esistenti, dall’altro la creazione di materiale inedito dal taglio surrealista e spiazzante. Grazie alla fama raggiunta e alla fame di visibilità di partenza, l’estetica di «Toilet Paper» si sviluppa parallelamente su diversi supporti: cartaceo, digitale e su numerosi oggetti di consumo di massa. Digerendo i meccanismi basilari dei linguaggi mediatici odierni, nonché il funzionamento partecipativo dei vari social network, Cattelan risulta un perfetto comunicatore della contemporaneità. Questo volume, quindi, attraverso una gustosa metafora culinaria digerente, analizza la produzione artistica ed editoriale di un autore unico e si interroga, infine, sulla responsabilità del nuovo comportamento del fruitore anarchico.

description: Multi cast communication is a key technology for wireless mesh networks. Multicast provides efficient data distribution among a group of nodes, Generally sensor networks and MANETs uses multicast algorithms which are designed to be energy efficient and to achieve optimal route discovery among mobile nodes whereas wireless mesh networks needs to maximize throughput. Here we propose two multicast algorithms: The Level Channel Assignment (LCA) algorithm and the Multi-Channel Multicast (MCM) algorithm to improve the throughput for multichannel sand multi interface mesh networks. The algorithm builds efficient multicast trees by minimizing the number of relay nodes and total hop count distance of the trees. Shortest path computation is a classical combinatorial optimization problem. Neural networks have been used for processing path optimization problem. Pulse Coupled Neural Networks (PCNNS) suffer from high computational cast for very long paths we propose a new PCNN modal called dual source PCNN (DSPCNN) which can improve the computational efficiency two auto waves are produced by DSPCNN one comes from source neuron and other from goal neuron when the auto waves from these two sources meet the DSPCNN stops and then the shortest path is found by backtracking the two auto waves.

description: The folder attached are for the paper, 'Intra-pulse transition between ion acceleration mechanisms in intense laser-foil interactions', published in the journal, Physics of Plasma. The folder contains a read me file which gives direction for the data presented in the paper. In the paper we show that multiple ion acceleration mechanism can occurs when an ultrathin foil is irradiated with an intense laser pulse. The data in paper presents measurement of the spatial-intensity distribution of the proton beam and investigates the transition from radiation pressure acceleration to transparency driven processes. By varying the target thickness, the angle of the ring is shown to correlate to the point at which transparency occurs.

description: Starting from the pioneering work of G. S. Agarwal [Zeitschrift für Physik 252, 25 (1972)], we present a unified derivation of a number of modified fluctuation-dissipation relations (MFDR) that relate response to small perturbations around non-equilibrium steady states to steady-state correlations. Using this formalism we show the equivalence of velocity forms of MFDR derived using continuum Langevin and discrete master equation dynamics. The resulting additive correction to the Einstein relation is exemplified using a flashing ratchet model of molecular motors.

Are men and women really different? Social institutional approaches to infidelity
Creators: name: Nair, Dixsha Shivani
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Infidelity is often cited as the leading cause of marital dissolution. Moreover, previous research has focused on gender differences, relationship variables and other variables, such as religion and employment without establishing a comprehensive theoretical framework. To the extent that theories are established, they focus on the inherent differences between men and women. It is theorized that women and men approach infidelity differently due to different mating strategies. Men are more likely to commit adultery than women because they engage in short-term mating with multiple partners. Women, on the other hand, engage in long term mating and when they do have affairs, they are emotionally involved. However, current estimates of infidelity range from one to six percent and indicate that the vast majority of individuals do not approve of nor engage in extramarital sex. I argue that social institutions such as marriage, religion, and work inform both behaviour and attitudes regarding infidelity. These institutions establish norms and conventions, which also influence aspects of sex including infidelity. As such, the current study examines whether attitudes and behaviours regarding infidelity can be explained as the result of inherent differences between men and women or whether social institutions also play a role.

Spin-Seebeck effect in a strongly interacting Fermi gas

description: We study the spin-Seebeck effect in a strongly interacting, two-component Fermi gas and propose an experiment to measure this effect by relatively displacing spin up and spin down atomic clouds in a trap using spin-dependent temperature gradients. We compute the spin-Seebeck coefficient and related spin-heat transport coefficients as functions of temperature and interaction strength. We find that when the inter-spin scattering length becomes larger than the Fermi wavelength, the spin-Seebeck coefficient changes sign as a function of temperature, and hence so does the direction of the spin-separation. We compute this zero-crossing temperature as a function of interaction strength and in particular in the unitary limit for the inter-spin scattering.

description: The Dwyer-Fried invariants of a finite cell complex X are the subsets Ω^i_r(X) of the Grassmannian of r-planes in H^1(X,\Q) which parametrize the regular \Z^r-covers of X having finite Betti numbers up to degree i. In previous work, we showed that each Ω-invariant is contained in the complement of a union of Schubert varieties associated to a certain subspace arrangement in H^1(X,\Q). Here, we identify a class of spaces for which this inclusion holds as equality. For such "straight" spaces X, all the data required to compute the Ω-invariants can be extracted from the resonance varieties associated to the cohomology ring H^*(X,\Q). In general, though, translated components in the characteristic varieties affect the answer.

description: Young stellar objects often drive powerful bipolar outflows which evolve on time scales of a few years. An increasing number of these outflows has been detected in X-rays implying the existence of million degree plasma almost co-spatial with the lower temperature gas observed in the optical and near-IR. The details of the heating and cooling processes of the X-ray emitting part of these so-called Herbig-Haro objects are still ambiguous, e.g., whether the cooling is dominated by expansion, radiation or thermal conduction. We present a second epoch Chandra observation of the first X-ray detected Herbig-Haro object (HH 2) and derive the proper-motion of the X-ray emitting plasma and its cooling history. We argue that the most likely explanation for the constancy of the X-ray luminosity, the alignment with the optical emission and the proper-motion is that the cooling is dominated by radiative losses leading to cooling times exceeding a decade. We explain that a strong shock caused by fast material ramming into slower gas in front of it about ten years ago can explain the X-ray emission while being compatible with the available multi-wavelength data of HH 2.

A well-controlled InGaAs nanowire release process and a novel ALD high-k/metal gate process has been developed to enable the fabrication of III-V GAA MOSFETs. Well-behaved on-state and off-state performance has been achieved with channel length (Lch) down to 50nm. A detailed scaling metrics study (S.S., DIBL, VT) with Lch of 50nm - 110nm and fin width (WFin) of 30nm - 50nm are carried out, showing the immunity to short channel effects with the advanced 3D structure. The GAA structure has provided a viable path towards ultimate scaling of III-V MOSFETs.

description: We prove that any closed connected exact Lagrangian manifold L in a connected cotangent bundle T*N is up to a finite covering space lift a homology equivalence. We prove this by constructing a fibrant parametrized family of ring spectra FL parametrized by the manifold N. The homology of FL will be (twisted) symplectic cohomology of T*L. The fibrancy property will imply that there is a Serre spectral sequence converging to the homology of FL and the product combined with intersection product on N induces a product on this spectral sequence. This product structure and its relation to the intersection product on L is then used to obtain the result. Combining this result with work of Abouzaid we arrive at the conclusion that L -> N is always a homotopy equivalence.

Operations for this cruise will include ROV, CTD, and mapping system shakedowns and exploration throughout the main Hawaiian Islands as time allows. The expedition will be staged in and out of Honolulu, HI with operations beginning on February 12th and concluding on February 17th. Operations will use the ship's deep water mapping systems (Kongsberg EM302 multibeam sonar, EK60 split-beam fisheries sonars, Knudsen 3260 chirp subbottom profiler sonar, Teledyne RDIWorkhorse Mariner and Ocean Surveyor ADCPs), a new Underway CTD system to support mapping, NOAA's two-body 6,000 m remotely operated vehicle (ROVs Deep Discoverer and Seirios) system, and the ship’s high-bandwidth satellite connection for real-time ship to shore communications. ROV dives will mostly be conducted during the day, and multibeam, singlebeam, and sub-bottom acoustic mapping will occur when the ROV is on deck. Target areas for operations will be identified prior to the cruise. However, exact locations of discrete ROV dives and mapping activities will be determined during the cruise as results of engineering and shakedown tests are evaluated and once weather and operational constraints are factored in.
Evaluating coexpression analysis for gene function prediction
Creators: name: Lotay, Vaneet Singh
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Microarray expression data sets vary in size, data quality and other features, but most methods for selecting coexpressed gene pairs use a ‘one size fits all’ approach. There have been many different procedures for selecting coexpressed gene pairs of high functional similarity from an expression dataset. However, it is not clear which procedure performs best as there are few studies reporting comparisons of these approaches. The goal of this thesis is to develop a set of “best practices” in order to select coexpression links of high functional similarity from an expression dataset, along which methods for identifying datasets likely to yield poor information. With these goals, we hope to improve the quality of gene function predictions produced by coexpression analysis. Using 80 human expression datasets we examined the impact of different thresholds, correlation metrics, expression data filtering and transformation procedures on performance in functional prediction. We also investigated the relationship between data quality and other features of expression datasets and their performance in functional prediction. We used the annotations of the Gene Ontology as a primary metric to measure similarity in gene function, and employ additional functional metrics for validation. Our results show that several dataset features have a greater influence on the performance in functional prediction than others. Expression datasets which produce coexpressed gene pairs of poor functional quality can be identified by a similar set of data features. Some procedures used in coexpression analysis have a negligible effect on the quality of functional predictions while others are essential to achieving the best performance in the algorithm. We also find that some procedures interact greatly with features of expression datasets and that these interactions increase the number of high quality coexpressed gene pairs retrieved through coexpression analysis. This thesis uncovers important information on the many intrinsic and extrinsic factors that influence the performance in functional prediction of coexpression analysis. The information summarized here will help guide future studies using coexpression analysis and improve the quality of gene function predictions.

description: We study the problem of stability of chiral states, also known as problem of chirality, within the framework of a two-dimensional approximation of a symmetric double-well potential. We show how the symmetry breaking of the potential due to the molecular parity violation can stop the tunneling in a coherent way, accordingly stabilize the chiral states. Then, we use the quantum Brownian motion within a linear Lindblad-type equation to model how the intermolecular interactions make the tunneling incoherent, thus inducing a racemization by dephasing. Finally, we investigate the normal physical conditions where the dephasing racemization does not suppress the effects of the molecular parity violation, accordingly the molecular parity violation may be observed experimentally.

AlN and Al oxy-nitride gate dielectrics for reliable gate stacks on Ge and InGaAs channels
Creators: name: Guo, Y

Publisher: name: Apollo - University of Cambridge Repository
Year: 2016

description: AlN and Al oxy-nitride dielectric layers are proposed instead of Al$_2$O$_3$ as a component of the gate dielectric stacks on higher mobility channels in metal oxide field effect transistors to improve their positive bias stress instability reliability. It is calculated that the gap states of nitrogen vacancies in AlN lie further away in energy from the semiconductor band gap than those of oxygen vacancies in Al$_2$O$_3$, and thus AlN might be less susceptible to charge trapping and have a better reliability performance. The unfavourable defect energy level distribution in amorphous Al$_2$O$_3$ is attributed to its larger coordination disorder compared to the more symmetrically bonded AlN. Al oxy-nitride is also predicted to have less tendency for charge trapping.

description: We report and propose a simple scheme to achieve efficient and fast coherent population transfer (CPT) by utilizing either a nonlinearly chirped Gaussian shaped few-cycle laser pulse or an unchirped sinc-shaped few-cycle laser pulse. The proposed scheme is shown to be fairly robust against the variation of the laser parameters such as temporal pulse width, chirp rates, carrier envelope phases and Rabi frequencies. We find that compared to the so-called stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) technique, our scheme for complete population transfer with few-cycle Gaussian shaped laser pulses requires less pulse area.

description: We investigate the effect of one-loop corrections of ${\cal O}(α_S^2α_W)$ on the $t\bar t$ invariant mass spectrum at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in presence of both resonant and non-resonant Higgs boson effects. We show that corrections of ${\cal O}(α_S^2α_W)$ involving a non-resonant Higgs boson are comparable to or even larger than those involving interference with the s-channel resonant Higgs boson amplitude and that both of these are subleading with respect to all other (non-Higgs) diagrams through that order. We also compute the contribution through ${\cal O}(α_S^2α_W^2)$ of resonant Higgs boson production (i.e. Higgs production via $gg$ fusion) as well as the pure QCD ones of ${\cal O}(α_S^3)$. Altogether, we show that the well known peak-dip structure of the $M_{t\bar t}$ spectrum emerging from interference effects between the $t,u$-channel $gg$-induced Leading Order (LO) QCD diagrams and the one due to a Higgs boson in s-channel via $gg$-fusion is drastically swamped by the remainder of the terms of ${\cal O}(α_S^2α_W)$ discussed above.

Assessing cow comfort using lying behaviour and lameness

description: Over the past decade, there has been growth in scientific research on welfare in modern dairy production systems. The issue of cow comfort and how it relates to the risk of lameness has received considerable interest. The objectives of this thesis were to establish reliable methods of using lying behaviour as a measure of cow comfort, to describe the variation in lying behaviour of individual cows within farm and between farms, and to evaluate the relationship between stall comfort, lying behaviour, and lameness. A cross-farm assessment was conducted on 43 commercial dairy farms in the Fraser Valley region of British Columbia. Electronic data loggers recorded lying behaviour of 2033 cows at 1-min intervals for 5 days. The first study established that monitoring at least 30 cows per farm for 3 days provides an accurate estimate of the lying behaviour of the lactating cows at that time. Cows averaged 11 h/d lying down, separated into 9 bouts/d with an average duration of 88 min/bout. Cows were scored for lameness using a 5-point Numerical Rating System (NRS) in which 1 = sound and 5 = severely lame. A subsample of 1319 cows from 28 farms using either deep-bedded stalls (n = 11) or mattress stalls (n = 17) were used for the second study. Overall, 21% of the cows were scored as NRS = 3 and 7% as NRS = 4; no cow was scoared as NRS = 5. Mattress farms had higher prevalence of NRS = 4 compared to deep-bedded farms (9 vs. 4%, respectively). Cows with NRS = 4 housed on deep-bedded stalls spent 1.6 h/d more lying, and had longer bouts compared to cows with NRS ≤ 3, but there were no behavioural differences among cows with different degrees of lameness housed on mattress stalls. Extreme lying behaviour, particularly the high lying times (≥ 14 h/d) and long lying bouts (≥ 99 min/bout) were associated with increased odds of lameness, regardless of stall surface. Stall comfort, lying behaviour, and lameness are interlinked, and should all be integrated as measures of cow comfort.
Permutation Complexity Related to the Letter Doubling Map

description: Given a countable set X (usually taken to be the natural numbers or integers), an infinite permutation, π, of X is a linear ordering of X. This paper investigates the combinatorial complexity of infinite permutations on the natural numbers associated with the image of uniformly recurrent aperiodic binary words under the letter doubling map. An upper bound for the complexity is found for general words, and a formula for the complexity is established for the Sturmian words and the Thue-Morse word.

description: Ohne Zweifel sind wir als Gewerkschafter angesichts der neuen Möglichkeiten globaler Arbeitsteilung in der schwierigen Situation, unser System der industriellen Beziehungen und unsere tariflichen und sozialen Standards in einer für die Unternehmen grenzenlos gewordenen Welt zu verteidigen. Das fängt bei den traditionellen Grenzen des Betriebes und dem damit abgesteckten Handlungsraum des Betriebsrates an und weist über den räumlichen und sektoralen Bereich des Tarifvertrages hinaus in die Problematik zunehmender Unternehmensaufspaltungen und Unternehmensverbünde. Weder unsere rechtlichen noch unsere organisationspolitischen Möglichkeiten sind auf die Tragweite des neuen Globalisierungsschubes angemessen eingestellt. Wir sind deshalb auf der Suche nach Strategien, dem Risiko des betrieblichen und tarifpolitischen Gestaltungsverlustes Herr zu werden. Der vorliegende Beitrag will auf der Grundlage der realen Entwicklungen Chancen identifizieren, die ökonomische Effizienz unserer Arbeitsplätze in der Automobilindustrie mit fortschrittlichen Kooperationsformen zu verteidigen.

Power and Conflict Management: The Joban-God Talk

Subjects: power; imperialism, postcolonial; Resistance; conflcit; resolution

description: Sara Cobb begins her book, Speaking of Violence by stating that “stories matter. They have gravitas; they are grave. They have weight. They are concrete. They materialize policies, institutions, relationships, and identities.”[1] Applied to the book of Job 1—2, one can ask, how grave is the story of Job? What conflict does it create? What is at stake in this conflict? What does the story concretize? In this paper I point out that there are two narrative approaches to reading Job's conflict with God. One is that Job does not resist divine power and the other is that he does. If we take it that job does not resist divine power, we implicitly begin fostering stories that can create docility/passivity in the face of imperial power. If we argue that he resists divine power, we create stories that enable people to stand up for their freedoms/rights, hence fostering the idea that conflict cannot be solved by docility but by confronting the powers-that-be, which create conflicts in the first place. In this paper, I argue for the later position.

The Young Cluster in IC 1274

description: IC 1274 is a faintly luminous nebula lying on the near surface of the Lynds 227 (L227) molecular cloud. Four luminous, early-type (B0-B5) stars are located within a spherical volume ~5' in diameter that appears to be clear of heavy obscuration. Approximately centered in the cleared region is the B0 V star HD 166033, which is thought to be largely responsible for the cavity's excavation. Over 80 H-alpha emission sources brighter than V~21 have been identified in the region. More than half of these are concentrated in IC 1274 and are presumably members of a faint T Tauri star population. Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) imaging of a nearby suspected pulsar and time-variable gamma-ray source (GeV J1809-2327) detected 21 X-ray sources in the cluster vicinity, some of which are coincident with the early-type stars and H-alpha emitters in IC 1274. Deep (V~22) optical BVRI photometry has been obtained for the cluster region. A distance of 1.82 +/- 0.3 kpc and a mean extinction of Av ~1.21 +/- 0.2 mag follow from photometry of the early-type stars. Using pre-main-sequence evolutionary models, we derive a median age for the H-alpha emitters and X-ray sources of ~1 Myr; however, a significant dispersion is present. Our interpretation of the structure of IC 1274 is that the early-type stars formed recently and are in the process of dispersing the molecular gas on the near surface of L227. The displaced material was driven against what remains of the molecular cloud to the east, enabling the formation of the substantial number of T Tauri stars found there. We identify a V~21.5 star very near the position of X-ray source 5, the assumed gamma-ray source and young pulsar candidate. The lack of distinctive characteristics for this source, however, coupled with the density of faint stars in this region suggest that this may be a random superposition.
