description: B(C6F5)3 was found to catalyze the reaction between trimethylsilyl azide and benzylic acetates. Secondary and tertiary benzylic acetates were competent substrates in this reaction providing the azide products in moderate to high yields. Mechanistic experiments are consistent with the possible formation of a Lewis acid-base pair between the B(C6F5)3 and trimethylsilyl azide.

description: Motiviert durch die globale Erwärmung konzentriert sich diese Arbeit auf die Entwicklung einer Quantifizierungsmethode für Treibhausgas (CO$_{2}$e) Emissionen von Baumaschinen. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird eine Methode vorgestellt, welche identifizierte Forschungslücken schließt, die durch die Analyse von Maßnahmen aus unterschiedlichen Industrien und von existierenden CO$_{2}$ Quantifizierungsmethoden abgeleitet worden sind. Dabei berücksichtigt die Methode mit Hilfe von Einflussfaktoren aus sechs Säulen CO$_{2}$e Reduktionspotentiale, welche lauten: Maschineneffizienz, Prozesseffizienz, Energieträger, Betriebseffizienz, Materialeffizienz und CO$_{2}$e Abscheidung und Lagerung. Durch den Einsatz der Methode auf repräsentative Bauanwendungen für Europa für drei Zeitschienen Vergangenheit-Gegenwart-Zukunft wird gezeigt, dass diese für beliebige Bauanwendungen und Zeitschienen anwendbar ist. Beim Vergleichen der Ergebnisse aus zwei Zeitschienen ist es möglich die Reduktion oder Steigerung an Treibhausgasemissionen zu erfassen. Am Beispiel von ausgewählten Baumaschinen wird gezeigt, dass die Methode gültig ist und damit Aussagen über bestimmten CO$_{2}$e Reduktionsmaßnahmen ermöglicht werden. Zum Schluss werden Transformationslösungen vorgeschlagen, um die Treibhausgasemissionen von Baumaschinen zu reduzieren. Dabei wird flüssiges Methan als alternativer Energieträger vorgeschlagen, der die CO$_{2}$e Emissionen bis zu 84 % reduzieren kann. Die zusätzliche Kombination mit einem Brennstoffzellenantrieb können die CO$_{2}$e Emission bis zu 89 % reduzieren. Als dritte Lösung wird der Einsatz eines CO$_{2}$ Abscheide- und Speichersystems vorgeschlagen, welches die CO$_{2}$e Emissionen von fossilen Diesel bis zu 82 % reduziert. Durch Kombination der drei vorgeschlagenen Lösungen wird aus der mobilen Arbeitsmaschine eine Maschine, welche die Atmosphäre von Treibhausgas reinigt, da negative CO$_{2}$e Emissionen damit entstehen.

description: With the emergence of video as an affordable and accessible technology, its use as a research tool has become increasingly commonplace. As affirmed in the preface to Video in Qualitative Research, as well as by myriad other scholars (see Heritage, 1995; Liddicoat, 2011) this has been a promising development, allowing researchers to capture, review, share, and disseminate data in unprecedented ways. However, the potential advantages of employing video in research are accompanied by the uncertainty of the new: questions of ethics, practicalities, and implications. Video in Qualitative Research situates itself at this juncture. Taking into consideration ethical issues, data collection, data analysis, and communication of findings, Heath, Hindmarch, and Luff aim to provide practical guidance to researchers in the social sciences who wish to use video as a tool. While their book prioritizes the frameworks of ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, their informed recommendations are applicable to a wide range of methodologies within the social sciences.

An empirical investigation of entrepreneurs’ communication and gamification strategies in crowdfunding
Creators: name: Chung, June-Ho
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Crowdfunding is an increasingly popular financing platform that allows entrepreneurs of new products and services to raise capital from a large pool of potential funders (i.e., investors). Unlike conventional funders, crowdfunding funders do not acquire equity in or make loans to ventures. Instead, they receive a non-monetary return in the form of pre-ordered products or services. Crowdfunding funders know that these early-stage investments typically entail risks such as unproven technologies, unfinished products, and untried services, the true quality, marketability and efficacy of which are untested. Yet entrepreneurs regularly succeed in attracting funders through crowdfunding platforms, indicating that the project campaign description is critical to their success. Therefore, developing effective digital communication is particularly important to crowdfunding entrepreneurs. A successful project campaign message must effectively communicate core values and establish an emotional connection with potential funders. This dissertation research sheds light on understanding the effects of project campaign descriptions in a crowdfunding context, focusing especially on how linguistic cues in project campaign descriptions and gamification can attract funders to a project and become motivated to support it. Specifically, this dissertation investigates how a project campaign’s linguistic cues—promoting entrepreneurs’ prosocial values and creating a sense of unity—can generate greater crowd support for entrepreneurs. This study also empirically examines gamification as a motivator on crowdfunding performance. Given the multifaceted nature of potential funders’ intrinsic motivation within crowdfunding environments, especially on reward-based crowdfunding platforms, this research examines the role of gamification in amplifying the effect of entrepreneurs’ prosocial mission cues on crowdfunding success. Using a dataset from Kickstarter and a controlled experimental study, I find that emphasizing prosocial missions and a sense of unity on project campaign descriptions increases the chance of crowdfunding success. Furthermore, conveying gamification features (i.e., subordinate challenging goals) in project campaigns can also be shown to directly contribute to meeting funding goals. In summary, this dissertation provides evidence that the effectiveness of prosocial mission cues on crowdfunding success is enhanced when the sense of unity increases and the project campaign displays gamification features.

description: Excerpt from the Introduction: To the student of agriculture in relation to population most material relating to agricultural science as well as sociology and economic history is of interest. From so extensive a field it would be quite impossible to select a well-rounded and usable list of books. Therefore, this bibliography has been limited to (1) those works which deal with quantities of foods - production, export, import, and consumption; (2) those which describe the sources of foods and the means by which they are brought to us; and (3) those which definitely discuss the relation of agriculture to population. In the hope of making the list more useful it has been arranged by continent and by country, with a general group of the books of world-wide interest under which is a group devoted to economic geographies and similar works.

description: Aims: To investigate the contribution of vascular risk factors (VRFs), vascular diseases (VDs) and white matter lesions (WMLs) to the progression of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to dementia and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Methods: Two hundred forty-five consecutive subjects with MCI (age 74.09 ± 6.92 years) were followed for an average of 2.4 years. The Hachinski Ischemic Score and the Framingham Stroke Risk Profile were used to summarize VRFs and VDs. WMLs were graded using the Age-Related White Matter Changes Scale. Results: One hundred twenty-nine (52.6%) out of 245 subjects at risk converted to dementia, including 87 cases of AD. When hypertension occurred in MCI with deep WMLs, a 1.8-fold increased risk of dementia was observed (95% CI = 1.0–3.4). When deep WMLs occurred in MCI with high scores (≥4) on the Hachinski scale, a 3.5-fold (95% CI = 1.6–7.4) and 3.8-fold (95% CI = 1.2–11.5) risk of progression to dementia and AD was observed, respectively. Analogously, the joint effect of WMLs and high scores (≥14) on the Framingham scale nearly doubled the risk of dementia (hazard ratio = 1.9, 95% CI = 1.1–3.3). Conclusions: Accelerated progression of MCI to dementia and AD is to be expected when VRFs and VDs occur together with WMLs.

description: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an important organelle responsible for the folding and sorting of proteins. Disturbances in ER homeostasis can trigger a cellular response known as the unfolded protein response, leading to accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER lumen called ER stress. A number of recent studies suggest that mutations in autism spectrum disorder (ASD)-susceptible synaptic genes induce ER stress. However, it is not known whether ER stress-related genes are altered in the brain of ASD subjects. In the present study, we investigated the mRNA expression of ER stress-related genes (ATF4, ATF6, PERK, XBP1, sXBP1, CHOP, and IRE1) in the postmortem middle frontal gyrus of ASD and control subjects. RT-PCR analysis showed significant increases in the mRNA levels of ATF4, ATF6, PERK, XBP1, CHOP, and IRE1 in the middle frontal gyrus of ASD subjects. In addition, we found a significant positive association of mRNA levels of ER stress genes with the diagnostic score for stereotyped behavior in ASD subjects. These results, for the first time, provide the evidence of the dysregulation of ER stress genes in the brain of subjects with ASD.

description: Purpose: To evaluate retinal layer thickness with optical coherence tomography (OCT) in eyes with macula-off retinal detachment after silicone oil (SiO) or gas endotamponade. Procedures: Cross-sectional study of 40 eyes with macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment that underwent vitrectomy. 20 eyes received SiO tamponade and 20 matched eyes received gas. 33 healthy fellow eyes served as controls. Macular spectral domain OCT was performed with automated layer detection in the 5 inner subfields of the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) map. Results: Comparing the SiO group with the gas group, the ganglion cell layer showed a significant thinning in all fields of the inner ring of the ETDRS map, the inner plexiform layer in the nasal, superior and temporal quadrants, and the outer plexiform layer in the nasal quadrant. Conclusions: Inner retinal layers in the fovea/parafovea were significantly thinner in the SiO group. Prospective studies are warranted to further elucidate possible retinal adverse effects of SiO tamponade.

description: Molecular self-assembly is a key function in biology and has been developed as an elegant technique for fabrication of various complex structures and functional materials. Key importance for structural formation in terms of self-assembly is molecular recognition pertaining to intermolecular weak interactions such as hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds, π-π stacking, electrostatic forces and dipole-dipole interactions etc. A combination of several kinds of such weak interactions can govern molecular organization and thus ordered supramolecular architectures. Among molecular building blocks are the bioinspired and bioderived molecules including peptides and proteins. Peptides consisting of several amino acids are most popular over decades for development of molecular biomaterials owing to ease of availability, programmable molecular motif, biocompatibility and biodegradation, flexible functionality and low cost-effectiveness. The nanostructures and materials assembled using peptides as building blocks have presented an important potential for green-life new technology and biomedical applications. In this opinion, self-assembly and application of several kinds of peptides including aromatic dipeptides, polypeptides, amphiphilic peptides, lipopeptides, and inorganic-hybridized peptide will be stated briefly.

description: Physical side-channel monitoring leverages the physical
phenomena produced by a microcontroller (e.g. power con-
sumption or electromagnetic radiation) to monitor program
execution for malicious behavior. As such, it offers a promis-
ing intrusion detection solution for resource-constrained em-
bedded systems, which are incompatible with conventional
security measures. This method is especially relevant in safety
and security-critical embedded systems such as in industrial
control systems. Side-channel monitoring poses unique chal-
lenges for would-be attackers, such as: (1) limiting attack
vectors by being physically isolated from the monitored sys-
tem, (2) monitoring immutable physical side channels with
uninterpretable data-driven models, and (3) being specifically
trained for the architectures and programs on which they are
applied to. As a result, physical side-channel monitors are
conventionally believed to provide a high level of security.
In this paper, we propose a novel attack to illustrate that,
despite the many barriers to attack that side-channel moni-
toring systems create, they are still vulnerable to adversarial
attacks. We present a method for crafting functional malware
such that, when injected into a side-channel-monitored sys-
tem, the detector is not triggered. Our experiments reveal that
this attack is robust across detector models and hardware im-
plementations. We evaluate our attack on the popular ARM
microcontroller platform on several representative programs,
demonstrating the feasibility of such an attack and highlight-
ing the need for further research into side-channel monitors.

description: Laboratories in the pharmaceutical industry see an ongoing transition towards continuous manufacturing by means of tighter integration of novel and existing technologies and, thus, the introduction of new work methodologies. However, technological studies focusing novel manufacturing methodologies usually do not address social aspects, while social sciences studies on the other hand rarely address scientific and industrial aspects of manufacturing processes and therein involved personnel. Hence, the scientific literature lacks systematic analyses of human and social factors in such continuous manufacturing environments. Therefore, the study provides a literature review of social research of scientific laboratories and lab work. Then, ethnographic field research is conducted in a laboratory for continuous manufacturing. One by one a team of six lab workers are observed and interviewed during a typical day shift (N=6). All sessions are recorded on video (4h 47mins) and transcribed to enable a qualitative content analysis. The overall work environment of a research and development chemistry laboratory of a big multinational pharma company is described including the general laboratory workflow. Finally, a list of 96 user needs as well as user role descriptions of the participating lab workers are generated. One key finding of the study is that the work culture in this lab follows a mode of constant debate trying to contain knowledge transfer in teams top-down as well as bottom-up, e.g. during experimenting with hardware setups trying not to compromise the chemical recipe following a research hypothesis. In this regard, digitization efforts like introducing electronic lab notebooks should prioritize to promote and support communication and collaboration over features and technological enhancements. Specifically, learning can be considered a shared responsibility to promote a common work process knowledge that is needed to successfully act and react in the context of continuously changing experiment setups and team compilations. Based on these results, the authors highlight the importance of holistic upfront user research to uncover underlying human and social factors as determinants for the success of socio-technical systems. All in all, with this study the authors provide a data set, which may serve as a foundation for future research and development projects in similar, industrial research working conditions, following a human-centered design approach.

description: Introduction: Professional workers that manufacture or use titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based paints are exposed to potentially toxic TiO2 nanomaterials as well as to different paint solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). In this context, we evaluate the combined cytotoxic effects of TiO2 nanoparticles and DMSO on HepG2 human hepatocytes. Methods: Three types of TiO2 nanoparticles were used: commercial Degussa P25 and two samples synthesized by a hydrothermal procedure – undoped and Fe3+-doped TiO2. The effects of TiO2 nanoparticles on HepG2 cells exposed to DMSO before, after or together with the TiO2 treatment were investigated by viability and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) determinations, performed using the MTT and DCFH-DA(2',7'-dichlorﬂuorescein-diacetate) methods respectively. Results: Results indicated that DMSO made HepG2 cells more susceptible to toxic effects induced by nanosized TiO2. In the absence of DMSO, none of the tested nanoparticles exhibited significant cytotoxic effects. Viability increases were detected after 48 hours of treatment and attributed to possible redox-sensitive proliferation mechanism striggered by the low and moderate amounts of produced ROS. The combined action of TiO2 and DMSO led to a general viability decrease tendency. Significant effects (viability reductions and ROS generation) were observed in the case of cells first treated with Degussa P25 TiO2 and afterwards exposed to DMSO. The hydrothermal materials exhibited reduced in vitro reactivity on HepG2hepatocytes. Conclusion: The study reveals the enhancement of nanosized TiO2 toxicity induced by DMSO exposure, its findings having potential to help in the evaluation of professional health risks associated to the combined action of TiO2 nanomaterials and paint solvents.

description: This article explores the supply of and demand for religiously infused democratic politics in the Muslim majority world. The first half of the article reexamines the widespread support of Muslim publics for both democracy and shari’a law. Results from 15 years of public opinion polls in the Muslim world highlight a clear pattern of support for pious political candidates, but not clerical control of politics. These results, the article further claims, are consistent with contemporary scholars’ understanding of Muslim democracy. The second half of the article formulates and then tests several hypotheses about the role of states’ religious policies in generating this public demand for Muslim democracy. Using cross-national data on religion-state arrangements and Arab Barometer and World Values Survey data, the article finds support for the hypothesis that religious favouritism increases demand for pious political candidates, but less support for the hypothesis that religious regulation reduces demand for clerical control of politics.

description: Excerpts from the Introduction: This bibliography was first planned in response to a request for a bibliography on the construction and. operation of cold storage plants for the handling of dairy and poultry products. After the compiling of the material had been begun, it was decided to enlarge the scope to include other commodities, - such as fruits, vegetables, furs, etc. - but to limit it as to subject matter and date of material included. The index of the bibliography is designed to bring out the names of all authors mentioned, and all references to commodities and to such other subjects as the user might otherwise have difficulty in locating.

description: Previous security research efforts orbiting around graphs have been exclusively focusing on either (de-)anonymizing the graphs or understanding the security and privacy issues of graph neural networks. Little attention has been paid to understand the privacy risks of integrating the output from graph embedding models (e.g., node embeddings) with complex downstream machine learning pipelines. In this paper, we fill this gap and propose a novel model-agnostic graph recovery attack that exploits the implicit graph structural information preserved in the embeddings of graph nodes. We show that an adversary can recover edges with decent accuracy by only gaining access to the node embedding matrix of the original graph without interactions with the node embedding models.
We demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of our graph recovery attack through extensive experiments.

description: Quantum state-resolved scattering experiments for methane molecules colliding with a catalytically active nickel surface are compared to scattering from a nickel surface passivated by a single layer of graphene. The vibrational state distribution of the scattered methane is observed to differ dramatically for the two surfaces. Quantum-mechanical inelastic scattering calculations show that these differences are related to the catalytic activity of the surface impact site. Our results demonstrate how inelastic scattering can be used to probe the reactive potential-energy surfaces of molecule-metal systems important to heterogeneous catalysis.

description: The rapid expansion of human settlement, agricultural land and roads because of population growth in several regions of the world has contributed to the depletion of forest land. In this study, novel ensemble intelligent approaches using bagging, dagging and rotation forest (RTF) as meta classifiers of multilayer perceptron (MLP) were used to predict spatial deforestation probability (DP) in Gumani Basin, India. The success rate and correctness of prediction of the ensemble models were compared with MLP. A total of 1000 deforested pixels and 14 deforestation determining factors (DDFs) were used. The ensemble models were trained using 70% of the deforested pixels and validated with the remaining 30%. DDFs were chosen by applying the information gain ratio and Relief-F test methods. Distance to settlement, population growth and distance to roads were the most important factors. The results of DP modelling demonstrated that nearly 16.82%–12.64% of the basin had very high DP. All four models created DP maps with reasonable prediction accuracy and goodness of fit, but the best map was produced by MLP-bagging. The accuracy of the MLP neural net model was increased 2-3% after ensemble with the hybrid meta classifiers (RTF, bagging and dagging). The proposed method could be used for deforestation prediction in other areas having similar geo-environmental conditions. Furthermore, the findings might be used as a basis for future research and could help planners in forest management.

Dabei wird eine kleine Ausführung zu den neuronalen Netzen als Einleitung zum Themenfeld dienen.
description: This article describes a way to increase the validity of a simulation model by using test bench results for validation. A replacement model of a subsystem is created with the help of neural networks. This neural network then serves as an additional subsystem, which is to serve for the optimization of an assembly. A small version of the neural networks will serve as an introduction to the topic.

description: Tropical cyclones wreak havoc on the lives of coastal populations, especially in marginalised communities in developing countries where cyclone impacts are disproportionately lethal compared to developed countries. These populations must implement measures that enable them to prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyclone impacts. Using empirical evidence, this study presents a spatio-temporally explicit, index-based assessment technique to assess social resilience to tropical cyclones. The key components of social resilience were extracted by Principal Component Analysis; distinct resilience indices were generated and mapped for the three disaster phases. The most influential components were then aggregated into an Effective Social Resilience Index (ESoRI), which was mapped across the study area. The technique was applied in a coastal sub-district of Bangladesh to demonstrate the approach. Basic preparedness training, emergency response, social bonding, and reconstruction and rehabilitation strongly influenced resilience in ways that corresponded closely to the phases of the disaster-management cycle: preparedness, response, and recovery. The spatial pattern of resilience revealed that social resilience varies significantly in time and space within a circumscribed locale. Importantly, areas close to the sea and rivers were found to be more resilient despite their high exposure to cyclones and lack of external support. This study will guide policymakers concerned with resilience building on a priority basis such as those working in resource-scarce conditions of developing countries.

description: Earthquake-related studies on seismicity and seismic hazard assessment need a homogenous earthquake catalog for the region studied. A homogenous earthquake catalog for Northeast India region was compiled using derived regional and global empirical relationships between different magnitudes and moment magnitude based on an improved error-corrected methodology suggested in the recent literature. To convert smaller magnitude earthquakes, global empirical equations were derived and used. A procedure is suggested to change different magnitudes into moment magnitude. A homogenous earthquake catalog of 9845 events was compiled for the time period 1897–2012. Entire magnitude range (EMR) was found to be the most reasonable method for estimating magnitude of completeness. Derived local and global empirical equations are useful for every seismic hazard or seismicity study. A complete and consistent homogenized earthquake catalog prepared in this study could provide good data for studying earthquake distribution in Northeast India. By carefully converting these original magnitudes into homogenized Mw magnitudes, an obstacle is removed for the consistent assessment of seismic hazards in Northeast India.
