title: Kulturelle und politische Identität deutschsprachiger Minderheiten in Nordamerika: der Gemeinschafts- und Politikbegriff der Amischen

Subjects: subject: Amische
subject: Kulturelle Identität
subject: 300

description: Gegenstand der politikwissenschaftlichen Staatexamensarbeit ist zunächst die Selbstwahrnehmung der deutschsprachigen religiösen Minderheiten in Nordamerika. Die Studie widmet sich der Frage, inwieweit anabaptistische Gemeinden in Nordamerika durch ihre konservative religiöse Ordnung eine unverwechselbare ethnische Identität in der Abgrenzung zu ihrer „englischen“ Umwelt erhalten haben. Kollektive Identität konstituiert sich jedoch nicht nur in einem Selbstbild, das eine soziale Gruppe übernimmt oder konstruiert, sondern ist ebenso untrennbar mit der Fremdwahrnehmung durch deren Umwelt verbunden. In einem weiteren Schritt wird der Politikbegriff der hier betrachteten Minderheiten vom Standpunkt des liberalen Verfassungsstaates und dessen theoretischer Grundannahmen betrachtet und kritisch reflektiert. Amische Identität gründet auf einer eigenständigen Gesellschaftskultur, die nur mit Minimalverpflichtungen gegenüber einem liberalen Staat aufrechtzuerhalten ist, der gleichzeitig bereit ist, einer friedlichen, die grundlegenden Menschenrechte achtenden nationalen Minderheit kulturelle Sonderrechte und Möglichkeiten der begrenzten Selbstverwaltung einzuräumen.
title: Using Technology to Monitor Hearing Device Use and Linguistic Environments: Early Intervention Providers’ Perspectives
Creators: name: Appenzeller, Margo C
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2020

description: To optimize outcomes of children with hearing loss, early intervention professionals must work with families to optimize both children’s hearing device use and the linguistic and auditory features of their environments. Two technologies with potential use in monitoring these domains are data logging and Language Environment Analysis (LENA) technology. This study had two objectives: 1) to determine whether providers’ experiences, perspectives, and current practices indicate there is a need for tools to better monitor these domains, and 2) to gain a better understanding of providers’ experiences with and perspectives on use of data logging and LENA technology using an internet-based questionnaire. Providers used informal, subjective methods to monitor functioning in the two domains and felt confident that this allowed them to know how consistently children on their caseloads were wearing their hearing devices and what their environments were like between intervention visits. Providers had limited personal experience with accessing data logging information from hearing devices, but many were receiving that information from the child’s audiologist. Most providers reported limited personal experience with LENA technology. Most providers indicated that they believed access to the technologies may be beneficial, but only if coupled with proper funding for the technology, appropriate training, and supportive administrative policies.

description: The chapter aims at analysing the role of online technologies and digital devices in young children’s (2-13) lives. The case study of Lithuania contributes with the new insights about the local context and is a continuation of the Lithuanian part of the European Commission Joint Research Center project “Young Children (0–8) and Digital Technologies“. This study builds on the national report presenting findings from the qualitative study on young children and their engagement with digital technologies conducted in Lithuania with ten families with children aged from 2 to 13 years and their parents. The research revealed that most children use online technologies everyday day, but their engagement with online technologies is substantially influen ed by their parents’ attitudes towards online technologies. Children perceive online technologies as entertainment, relaxation, something they can play with. Parents’ views towards the use of online technologies by their children are more diverse. They mediate their children’s use of online technologies in different ways.
Can we induce lucid dreams? A pharmacological point of view

description: The phenomenon of lucid dreaming, in which an individual has the ability to be conscious and in control of his dreams, has attracted the public attention, especially in the era of internet and social media platforms. With its huge popularity, lucid dreaming triggered passionate individuals, particularly lucid dreamers, to spread their thoughts and experiences in lucid dreaming, and provide a number of tips and techniques to induce lucidity in dreams. Scientific research in the field of sleep and dreams has verified the phenomenon of lucid dreaming for decades. Nevertheless, various aspects regarding lucid dreaming are not fully understood. Many hypotheses and claims about lucid dreaming induction are yet to be validated, and at present lucid dreaming still lacks efficient and reliable induction methods. Understanding the molecular basis, brain physiology, and underlying mechanisms involved in lucid dreaming can aid in developing novel and more target-specific induction methods. This review will focus on the currently available scientific findings regarding neurotransmitters’ behavior in sleep, drugs observed to affect dreams, and proposed supplements for lucid dreaming, in order to discuss the possibility of inducing lucid dreams from a pharmacological point of view.

Head/tail Breaks: A New Classification Scheme for Data with a Heavy-tailed Distribution

description: This paper introduces a new classification scheme - head/tail breaks - in order to find groupings or hierarchy for data with a heavy-tailed distribution. The heavy-tailed distributions are heavily right skewed, with a minority of large values in the head and a majority of small values in the tail, commonly characterized by a power law, a lognormal or an exponential function. For example, a country's population is often distributed in such a heavy-tailed manner, with a minority of people (e.g., 20 percent) in the countryside and the vast majority (e.g., 80 percent) in urban areas. This heavy-tailed distribution is also called scaling, hierarchy or scaling hierarchy. This new classification scheme partitions all of the data values around the mean into two parts and continues the process iteratively for the values (above the mean) in the head until the head part values are no longer heavy-tailed distributed. Thus, the number of classes and the class intervals are both naturally determined. We therefore claim that the new classification scheme is more natural than the natural breaks in finding the groupings or hierarchy for data with a heavy-tailed distribution. We demonstrate the advantages of the head/tail breaks method over Jenks' natural breaks in capturing the underlying hierarchy of the data. Keywords: data classification, head/tail division rule, natural breaks, scaling, and hierarchy

description: In a recent series of papers we have analyzed a certain deformation of the canonical commutation relations producing an interesting functional structure which has been proved to have some connections with physics, and in particular with quasi-hermitian quantum mechanics. Here we repeat a similar analysis starting with the canonical anticommutation relations. We will show that in this case most of the assumptions needed in the former situation are automatically satisfied, making our construction rather {\em friendly}. We discuss some examples of our construction, again related to quasi-hermitian quantum mechanics, and the bi-coherent states for the system.

description: Rare event simulation and estimation for systems in equilibrium are among the most challenging topics in molecular dynamics. As was shown by Jarzynski and others, nonequilibrium forcing can theoretically be used to obtain equilibrium rare event statistics. The advantage seems to be that the external force can speed up the sampling of the rare events by biasing the equilibrium distribution towards a distribution under which the rare events is no longer rare. Yet algorithmic methods based on Jarzynski's and related results often fail to be efficient because they are based on sampling in path space. We present a new method that replaces the path sampling problem by minimization of a cross-entropy-like functional which boils down to finding the optimal nonequilibrium forcing. We show how to solve the related optimization problem in an efficient way by using an iterative strategy based on milestoning.

From Sequence to Function through Secondary Structure Kinetics of RNA and DNA
Creators: name: Meruelo, Alejandro Daniel
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2006
Subjects: Physics

description: A number of efforts to determine function from sequence of RNA and DNA have
been made with varying success. Here we study the determination of function from
sequence of DNA and RNA through their secondary structure kinetics, specifically
the series of transitions between secondary structures. This series of transitions or
microscopic structure can be described by a system of ordinary differential equations
that can be approximating using balanced truncation to determine the macroscopic
structure. By doing so, we have been able to identify signature topological features of
microscopic structure and mathematically characterize the corresponding classes of
macroscopic structure. Thus we are now able to take large, complex systems, reduce
them, and understand their behavior. In the future, we hope to be able to identify
small microscopic changes that lead to large macroscopic changes and possibly phasetransition
like conditions between secondary states. Ultimately, this may lead to the
development of a secondary-structure kinetics theory describing how one or more
strands of DNA pair with one another to form different secondary structures and its
potential future experimental verification.

description: In astrophysics a common goal is to infer the flux distribution of populations of scientifically interesting objects such as pulsars or supernovae. In practice, inference for the flux distribution is often conducted using the cumulative distribution of the number of sources detected at a given sensitivity. The resulting "$\log(N>S)$-$\log (S)$" relationship can be used to compare and evaluate theoretical models for source populations and their evolution. Under restrictive assumptions the relationship should be linear. In practice, however, when simple theoretical models fail, it is common for astrophysicists to use prespecified piecewise linear models. This paper proposes a methodology for estimating both the number and locations of "breakpoints" in astrophysical source populations that extends beyond existing work in this field. An important component of the proposed methodology is a new interwoven EM algorithm that computes parameter estimates. It is shown that in simple settings such estimates are asymptotically consistent despite the complex nature of the parameter space. Through simulation studies it is demonstrated that the proposed methodology is capable of accurately detecting structural breaks in a variety of parameter configurations. This paper concludes with an application of our methodology to the Chandra Deep Field North (CDFN) data set.

description: Objectives: We investigated whether there is a measurable difference in medication utilization for psychiatric conditions before and after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Previous studies have identified a potential association between psychiatric conditions and immune function. We hypothesized that medication utilization for psychiatric diagnoses would be impacted by BMT.

Methods: This study was a retrospective, quasi-experimental cohort design. De-identified data was compiled from the Truven database for patients ranging from January 2009 through December 2016. Two measurements of medication utilization, proportion of days covered (PDC) and medication possession ratio (MPR) were calculated for each included Medispan-defined class of medications before analyzing changes in PDC and MPR at the patient level.

Results: Overall, 8,233 patients met the inclusion criteria. Across each measured medication class (anti-anxiety medications, anti-convulsants, antidepressant, hypnotic/sedatives, migraine medications and opioids) there was a statistically significant decrease in the number of raw prescriptions as well as in PDC value in the 2 years after BMT as compared to before the procedure.

Conclusions: We found a decrease in medication utilization after BMT across the measured medication classes, indicating a potential resolution of psychiatric symptoms and a potential impact on the associated pathophysiology. These results provide support for the premise that genetic factors associated with immune function play a role in psychiatric illness.

description: We propose a novel platform for the investigation of quantum wave packet dynamics, offering a complementary approach to existing theoretical models and experimental systems. It relies on laser-cooled neutral atoms which orbit around an optical nanofiber in an optical potential produced by a red-detuned guided light field. We show that the atomic center-of-mass motion exhibits genuine quantum effects like collapse and revival of the atomic wave packet. As distinctive advantages, our approach features a tunable dispersion relation as well as straightforward readout for the wave packet dynamics and can be implemented using existing quantum optics techniques.

Anomalous and spin Hall effects in hcp cobalt from GGA + U calculations

description: We have calculated the intrinsic anomalous and spin Hall conductivities, spin and orbital magnetic moments and also spin polarization of Hall currentsin hexagonal cobalt within the density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) plus on-site Coulomb interaction (GGA+$U$). The accurate all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method is used. We find that the anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) ($σ_{xy}^A$) and orbital magnetic moment ($m_o$) of cobalt with the magnetization being along the c-axis ($m//c$) calculated in the GGA+$U$ scheme with $U = 1.6$ eV and $J = 0.9$ eV agree rather well with the corresponding experimental values while, in contrast, the $σ_{xy}^A$ and $m_o$ from the GGA calculations are significantly smaller than the measured ones. This suggests that moderate $U = 1.6$ eV and $J = 0.9$ eV are appropriate for Co metals. The calculated AHC and spin Hall conductivity (SHC) ($σ^S$) are highly anisotropic, and the ratio of the Hall conductivity for $m//c$ to that for the magnetization being in-plane ($m//ab$) from the GGA+$U$ calculations, is $\sim$16.0 for the AHC and $\sim$6.0 for the SHC. For $m//c$, the spin-up and spin-down Hall currents are found to flow in the same direction. The magnitude of the calculated Hall current spin polarization ($P^H$) is large and $P^H = -0.61$. Remarkably, for $m//ab$, the spin-up and spin-down Hall currents are predicted to flow in the opposite directions. This indicates that the Hall current contains both spin-polarized charge current and pure spin current, resulting in the magnitude of the Hall current spin polarization ($P^H = -1.59$) being larger than 1.0.

Inflation, price dispersion and market integration through the lens of a monetary search model

subject: 300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::339 Makroökonomie und verwandte Themen

description: Recent monetary search models emphasize that the real effects of inflation via its impact on price dispersion depend on the level of search costs and, thus, on the level of market integration. For less integrated markets, the inflation-price dispersion nexus is predicted to be asymmetrically V-shaped which implies an optimal inflation rate above zero. For highly integrated markets, however, theory suggests that the impact of inflation on price dispersion disappears. Employing price data of the European Union member states, this paper is the first that empirically tests these implications of monetary search theory.
Efficient and Practical Composition of Lock-Free Data Structures
Creators: name: Bajracharya, Neha
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: A concurrent data object is lock-free if it guarantees that at least one, among all concurrent operations, finishes after a finite number of steps. In other words, a lock free technique guarantees that some thread always makes progress. Lock-free data objects offer several advantages over their blocking counterparts, such as being immune to deadlocks and priority inversion, and typically provide high scalability and performance, especially in shared memory multiprocessor architectures.
Composition of data structures is a powerful approach to combine simple data structures to create more complex ones. It works as a building block for many advanced useful data structures. In this thesis, we study the composition of lock-free data structures. We specifically consider a simple yet fundamental problem of combining two stacks to create a queue in a lock-free concurrent setting. Thus, we simulate the enqueue and dequeue operations of queues using the push and pop operations of stacks. Our work explores the challenges in combining the lock-free data structures with respect to ensuring the consistency as well as the lock-freedom of the composed data structure. We also implement the algorithm and experimentally evaluate its performance.

description: The Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12) assesses physical health-related (PH) and mental health (MH)-related well-being. Its 13-item Version, used in the socioeconomic panel (SOEP) 2016 (see S1), underwent adaptation, cognitive pretesting, revision, and validation for German, Arabic, and Dari utilizing two samples: a probability individual register sample (for German and Arabic) and a convenience sample recruited via Facebook (for Arabic and Dari). The survey targets the German-speaking population and individuals with a migration background or refugees proficient in Arabic or Dari aged 18 years or older. The two-factor structure of the revised SF-12, including a PH and MH dimension, could be supported by Multi Group Confirmatory Factor Analyses (MG-CFAs). Validity and reliability analyses support its use within each language group and in heterogeneous samples. Measurement invariance analyses showed metric and scalar invariance in the register sample. In the Facebook sample, metric invariance and partial scalar invariance are supported.

description: The analysis of monetary policy rules has been confined to models not capable of examining situations where an economy is converging to a higher balanced growth path. For the small open economies having entered the European Union recently this is however a very relevant question. The main aim of their integration is convergence itself and most of the criteria they have to fulfil in order to become members of the euro zone are of monetary nature. It is thus of special interest for them whether and how the chosen strategy of monetary policy aiming at the fulfilment of the requirements they face affects the transition. In this paper a first attempt is made to compare monetary policy rules in a monetary model of small open economies, which builds essentially on the convergence literature. The results show that the economy behaves very differently in the transition under the different monetary policy rules examined.

description: Local Search is one of the fundamental approaches to combinatorial optimization and it is used throughout AI. Several local search algorithms are based on searching the k-exchange neighborhood. This is the set of solutions that can be obtained from the current solution by exchanging at most k elements. As a rule of thumb, the larger k is, the better are the chances of finding an improved solution. However, for inputs of size n, a naïve brute-force search of the k-exchange neighborhood requires n to the power of O(k) time, which is not practical even for very small values of k. Fellows et al. (IJCAI 2009) studied whether this brute-force search is avoidable and gave positive and negative answers for several combinatorial problems. They used the notion of local search in a strict sense. That is, an improved solution needs to be found in the k-exchange neighborhood even if a global optimum can be found efficiently. In this paper we consider a natural relaxation of local search, called permissive local search (Marx and Schlotter, IWPEC 2009) and investigate whether it enhances the domain of tractable inputs. We exemplify this approach on a fundamental combinatorial problem, Vertex Cover. More precisely, we show that for a class of inputs, finding an optimum is hard, strict local search is hard, but permissive local search is tractable. We carry out this investigation in the framework of parameterized complexity.

description: This paper studies the bank-sovereign link in a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium set-up with strategic default on public debt. Heterogeneous banks give rise to an interbank market where government bonds are used as collateral. A default penalty arises from a breakdown of interbank intermediation that induces a credit crunch. Government borrowing under limited commitment is costly ex ante as bank funding conditions tighten when the quality of collateral drops. This lowers the penalty from an interbank freeze and feeds back into default risk. The arising amplification mechanism propagates aggregate shocks to the macroeconomy. The model is calibrated using Spanish data and is capable of reproducing key business cycle statistics alongside stylized facts during the European sovereign debt crisis.

description: This study analyzes the effects of right-wing extremism on the well-being of immigrants based on data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) for the years 1984 to 2006 merged with state-level information on election outcomes. The results show that the life satisfaction of immigrants is significantly reduced if right-wing extremism in the native population increases. Moreover, the life satisfaction of highly educated immigrants is affected more strongly than that of low-skilled immigrants. This supports the view that policies aimed at making immigration more attractive to the high-skilled have to include measures that reduce xenophobic attitudes in the native population.
Utilization of Remote Sensing Data for Estimation of the Groundwater Storage Variation

description: Groundwater is the most extracted raw material, with an average withdrawal rate of 982 km3 per year, where 70 percent of the total groundwater withdrawn is used for agriculture globally (Margat & van der Gun, 2013). With climate change and increased water demands in recent years, monitoring the changes in the groundwater storage is of the utmost importance. This thesis presents an analysis that determines the rates, trends, and directions where groundwater storage is going in Pakistan. It also correlates fluctuations in groundwater storage with variations in precipitation and agricultural productivity in the country. The overall objectives of this thesis are to identify the long-term variations in groundwater storage, and examine the impact of precipitation and crop production on the groundwater reserves in Pakistan. In this thesis, The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite data are used to estimate changes in groundwater storage for the study period of April 2002  June 2017. By subtracting the different water subcomponents, i.e. soil moisture and snow water equivalent, derived from the Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS) Noah from the GRACE data products, variations in groundwater storage are estimated. Precipitation data for this study is obtained from the Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks (PERSIANN) CDR system. Agricultural information, which includes the crop water requirement, is derived from CROPWAT, and yield data are obtained from the Bureau of Statistics, Punjab. The results reveal that groundwater storage in Pakistan is declining at a high rate. Over a period of 183 months, Punjab province has observed the highest loss in total volume of groundwater storage (28.2 km3), followed by Balochistan (19.57 km3), Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (9.84 km3), and lastly, Sindh (5.46 km3). The results also show that precipitation has a weak positive impact on groundwater storage and soil moisture, depending on the region. Lastly, crop cultivation has had a significant impact on the groundwater withdrawal rates, with amounts varying on a district by district basis. The contributions of this study include a better understanding of variations in the groundwater storage across different provinces in Pakistan, and an analysis of the effect of groundwater changes in relation to crop water demand and precipitation. GRACE data can be used to assess groundwater depletion in areas where groundwater monitoring is not available, as it can help with the evaluation of decreasing trends in groundwater levels. It can also provide policy makers information needed to conserve groundwater resources for future use.

description: In this thesis, we provide nonparametric estimation of signals corrupted by stationary noise in the white noise model. We derive adaptive and rate-optimal estimators of signals in modulation spaces by thresholding the coefficients obtained from the Gabor expansion. The rates obtained using the classical oracle inequalities of Donoho and Johnstone (1994) exhibit new features that reflect the inclusion of both time and frequency. The scope of our results is extended to alpha-modulation spaces in the one-dimensional setting, allowing a comparison with Sobolev and Besov spaces. To confirm the practical applicability of our methods, we perform extensive simulations. These simulations evaluate the performance of our methods in comparison to state-of-the-art methods over a range of scenarios.

description: When software systems become more complex, it can be advantageous to partition their code into multiple, separate components. In this work, we examine how multiple smart contracts can be coupled to work together. When coupling smart contracts, different design approaches are possible with their own advantages and disadvantages. As an example, we couple two smart contract applications on the Ethereum blockchain: Palinodia and DecentID. Palinodia can be used to ensure the integrity of downloaded executable binaries by checking their hashes against the hashes stored in the blockchain. To make sure that not everyone can modify the data stored on the blockchain, an identity management system is required. This task is fulfilled by DecentID, which provides decentralized identities stored as smart contracts on the blockchain. We evaluate approaches of coupling these two applications and discuss their benefits and drawbacks for this use case.
