description: Automatic identification of anomalies on network data is a problem of fundamental interest to ISPs to diagnose incipient problems in their networks. ISPs gather diverse data sources from the network for monitoring, diagnostics or provisioning tasks. Finding anomalies in this data is a huge challenge due to the volume of the data collected, the number and diversity of data sources and the diversity of anomalies to be detected. In this paper we introduce a framework for anomaly detection that allows the construction of a black box anomaly detector. This anomaly detector can be used for automatically finding anomalies with minimal human intervention. Our framework also allows us to deal with the different types of data sources collected from the network. We have developed a prototype of this framework, TrafficComber, and we are in the process of evaluating it using the data in the warehouse of a tier-1 ISP.

description: Charge transfer in a DNA duplex chain is studied by constructing a system with virtual electrodes connected at the ends of each DNA strand. The systeym is described by the tight-binding model and its transport is analyzed by the transfer matrix method. The very weak distance dependence in long (G:C)(T:A)_M(G:C)_3 DNA chain observed in experiment [B. Giese, et al., Nature 412, 318 (2001)] is explained by a unistep two-strand superexchange bridge without the need for the multi-step thermally-induced hopping mechanism or the dephasing effect. The crossover number M_c of (T:A) base pairs, where crossover between strong and weak distance dependence occurs, reflects the ratio of intra- and inter-strand neighboring base-base couplings.

Analytic Methods for Geometric Modeling via Spherical Decomposition

description: Analytic methods are emerging in solid and configuration modeling, while providing new insights into a variety of shape and motion related problems by exploiting tools from group morphology, convolution algebras, and harmonic analysis. However, most convolution-based methods have used uniform grid-based sampling to take advantage of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. We propose a new paradigm for more efficient computation of analytic correlations that relies on a grid-free discretization of arbitrary shapes as countable unions of balls, in turn described as sublevel sets of summations of smooth radial kernels at adaptively sampled 'knots'. Using a simple geometric lifting trick, we interpret this combination as a convolution of an impulsive skeletal density and primitive kernels with conical support, which faithfully embeds into the convolution formulation of interactions across different objects. Our approach enables fusion of search-efficient combinatorial data structures prevalent in time-critical collision and proximity queries with analytic methods popular in path planning and protein docking, and outperforms uniform grid-based FFT methods by leveraging nonequispaced FFTs. We provide example applications in formulating holonomic collision constraints, shape complementarity metrics, and morphological operations, unified within a single analytic framework.

Modular properties of 6d (DELL) systems

description: If super-Yang-Mills theory possesses the exact conformal invariance, there is an additional modular invariance under the change of the complex bare charge $τ= \fracθ{2π}+ \frac{4π\imath}{g^2}\longrightarrow -\frac{1}τ$. The low-energy Seiberg-Witten prepotential ${\cal F}(a)$, however, is not explicitly invariant, because the flat moduli also change $a \longrightarrow a_D = \partial{\cal F}/\partial a$. In result, the prepotential is not a modular form and depends also on the anomalous Eisenstein series $E_2$. This dependence is usually described by the universal MNW modular anomaly equation. We demonstrate that, in the $6d$ $SU(N)$ theory with {\it two} independent modular parameters $τ$ and $\hat τ$, the modular anomaly equation changes, because the modular transform of $τ$ is accompanied by an ($N$-dependent!) shift of $\hatτ$ and vice versa. This is a new peculiarity of double-elliptic systems, which deserves further investigation.

We use perturbation theory to treat, on the same footing, the regular and singular regions of the Fermi surface. It is shown that, even for weak local coupling, the self-energy presents a nontrivial behavior showing momentum dependence and interplay with the Fermi surface shape. Our scheme gives simple analytical expressions based on local features of the Fermi surface.

description: Association between twin pregnancies diagnosed by either rectal palpation or observation at calving and days open, days in gestation at pregnancy diagnosis, parity, and milk production in the lactation preceding the birth of twins were studied on 5493 cows on 14 California dairies. A total of 196 bicornual (3.57%) and 74 unicornual (1.35%) twin pregnancies were diagnosed, but the actual twinning rate at parturition was 6.86%. The incidence of twins at diagnosis and at calving was dependent on parity and independent of days open. Detection of twins at diagnosis by rectal palpation was dependent on days pregnant at diagnosis. Cows in parities greater than 2 diagnosed with twin pregnancies and calving with twins had higher peak mild production than cows diagnosed with single pregnancies and calving with singles, respectively. However, when data were stratified by dairy, no significant difference occurred in peak milk production between cows diagnosed with singles or twins, and no significant difference occurred between cows calving with singles and twins. The 305 day mature equivalent milk production (ME) did not differ between cows diagnosed or calving with twins and singles. Optimal time for diagnosis of twins was at 51 to 60 day postbreeding.

description: Whenever the group $\R^n$ acts on an algebra $\calA$, there is a method to twist $\cal A$ to a new algebra $\calA_θ$ which depends on an antisymmetric matrix $θ$ ($θ^{μν}=-θ^{νμ}=\mathrm{constant}$). The Groenewold-Moyal plane $\calA_θ(\R^{d+1})$ is an example of such a twisted algebra. We give a general construction to realise this twist in terms of $\calA$ itself and certain ``charge'' operators $Q_μ$. For $\calA_θ(\R^{d+1})$, $Q_μ$ are translation generators. This construction is then applied to twist the oscillators realising the Kac-Moody (KM) algebra as well as the KM currents. They give different deformations of the KM algebra. From one of the deformations of the KM algebra, we construct, via the Sugawara construction, the Virasoro algebra. These deformations have implication for statistics as well.

description: Using first-principles calculations, we found the topological phase transition induced by electric fields in one-bilayer Bi(111). The bandgap decreased with increasing electric field strength, and it is closed at 2.1 V/Å. For fields exceeding 2.1 V/Å, the bandgap increased with increasing electric field strength, reaching 0.34 eV at 4.0 V/Å. We computed the $Z_{2}$ invariant that characterizes topological insulator phases. As results, one-bilayer Bi(111) showed a topological phase transition induced by the electric field, from the topological insulator phase to the trivial insulator phase through a Dirac semimetal. This topological phase transition could be applied to novel devices.

description: Education is one of the most important components of the human capital, and an important determinant of the personal income. Estimating the rate of return to education is a main topic of economic research. In this paper we analyzed the rate of return to higher education in Romania using the well-known Mincer equation. Besides the educational level and the number of years of experience on the labor market we also used a series of socio-demographic variables such as gender, civil status, the area of residence. We were interested mainly in calculating the rate of return to higher education, therefore we computed this rate for bachelor, master and doctoral degrees separately. We also investigated the rate of return to higher education on technical, science, economics, law, medicine, and arts fields. Our results showed that the rate of return to higher education has a greater value than most of the developed countries of EU and the field of higher education that brings the highest rate of return is medicine

description: Linear scaling density matrix methods typically do not provide individual eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the Fock/Kohn-Sham matrix, so additional work has to be performed if they are needed. Spectral transformation techniques facilitate computation of frontal (homo and lumo) molecular orbitals. In the purify-shift-and-square method the convergence of iterative eigenvalue solvers is improved by combining recursive density matrix expansion with the folded spectrum method [J. Chem. Phys. 128, 176101 (2008)]. However, the location of the shift in the folded spectrum method and the iteration of the recursive expansion selected for eigenpair computation may have a significant influence on the iterative eigenvalue solver performance and eigenvector accuracy. In this work, we make use of recent homo and lumo eigenvalue estimates [SIAM J. Sci. Comput. 36, B147 (2014)] for selecting shift and iteration such that homo and lumo orbitals can be computed in a small fraction of the total recursive expansion time and with sufficient accuracy. We illustrate our method by performing self-consistent field calculations for large scale systems.

Productivity, management and disease in dairy cattle
Creators: name: Logue, D. N.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1997

description: There is a widely held view that increased productivity and intensification of dairy cow management is necessarily associated with reduced welfare and conversely extensive systems are good. This is a gross over simplification and in some cases plainly wrong. However the main problem besetting the industry is that we still have no reliable measure of how well the cow is coping with the stresses imposed by this search for greater efficiency. The three main reasons for involuntary culling are infertility, mastitis (including SCC) and lameness. Together with weight and condition score and some simple behavioral parameters these offer a practical yardstick to measure herd welfare. However we still need to develop our understanding of the fundamental etiology of these conditions and the cost benefits of any management intervention since we may well need to weigh them differently under different circumstances.

description: Thin films of inorganic materials as Tin-doped indium oxide, titanium oxide, Niobium doped titanium oxide, were deposited for comparison on glass and Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates with a DC sputtering method. These thin films have been characterized by different techniques: Dektak Surface Profilometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, (UV/Vis/NIR) spectrophotometer and spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). The optical parameters of these films such as transmittance, reflectance, refractive index, extinction coefficient, energy gap obtained with different electronic transitions, real and imaginary (ε_r,ε_i) dielectric constants, were determined in the wavelengths range of (200 - 2200) nm. The results were compared with SE measurements in the ranges of (0.56- 6.19) eV by a new amorphous model with steps of 1 nm. SE measurements of optical constant have been examined and confirm the accuracy of the (UV/Vis/NIR) results. The optical properties indicate an excellent transmittance in the visible range of (400 - 800) nm. The average transmittance of films on glass is about (86%, 91%, 85%) for (ITO, TiO2, TiO2:Nb (NTO)) respectively and decreases to about (85%, 81%, 82%) for PET substrates. For all these materials the optical band gap for direct transition was (3.53, 3.3, 3.6) eV on glass substrates and on PET substrates using two methods (UV and SE). A comparison between optical constants and thickness of these ultrathin films observed gives an excellent agreement with the UV results. The deposited films were also analyzed by XRD and showed an amorphous structure. The structural morphology of these thin films has been investigated and compared.

B {\bf 72}, 205104 (2005)] reported a disagreement between experimental and theoretical low temperature dielectric constant $ε$ for the high symmetry BaZrO$_3$ structure. We show that a fully relaxed 40-atom BaZrO$_3$ structure exhibits O$_6$ octahedral tilting, and $ε$ that agrees with experiment. The change in $ε$ from high-symmetry to low-symmetry structure is due to increased phonon frequencies as well as decreased mode effective charges.

description: A field study was conducted to compare the relative effects of two multivalent viral vaccine programs on animal health, feedlot performance, and carcass characteristics of feedlot calves at high risk of developing undifferentiated fever/bovine respiratory disease (UF/BRD). Upon arrival at the feedlot, 3,264 animals were randomly allocated to one of two experimental groups: PYR5 (Pyramid® 5, Fort Dodge Animal Health, Division of Wyeth, Overland Park, Kansas) or EXP5 (Express® 5, Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc., St. Joseph, Missouri). All animals were re-vaccinated with their respective vaccines at 139 days-on-feed. The initial undifferentiated fever (UF) treatment rate was significantly (P<0.05) lower in the PYR5 group than in the EXP5 group (RR=0.70, 95% CI=0.53-0.93). On a live-weight basis, the dry matter-to-gain ratio (DM:G) was significantly (P<0.05) improved in the PYR5 group compared to the EXP5 group. Yield grades were improved in the PYR5 group, with a significantly (P<0.05) lower proportion of YG USDA 3 carcasses in the PYR5 group compared to the EXP5 group. No significant differences were detected in any other animal health, feedlot performance, or carcass characteristic variables between the experimental groups at the P<0.05 level. The economic analysis showed an advantage of $1.36 US per animal in the PYR5 group due to the lower initial UF treatment rate and proportion of YG USDA 3 carcasses.

description: Abstract: "The paper describes the evolution of an Interdisciplinary Concurrent Design Methodology (ICDM) and the metrics used to compare four generations of wearable computer artifacts produced by the methodology at each stage of ICDM's growth. The product cycle is defined, its phases, and the design information representation for each phase. Six generic axes of design activity are defined, and the concept of benchmarking a complete design methodology using these axes is introduced. In addition an approach for measuring design complexity is proposed. When applied to the four generations of the CMU wearable computers, the ICDM has demonstrated two orders of magnitude increase in design and efficiency."

description: Two studies were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of tilmicosin for metaphylactic treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD), and subsequent effects on calf performance, in newly received, high-risk feedlot cattle. Calves in each study were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: negative control; 4.55 mg/lb body weight (BW) (10 mg/kg BW) tilmicosin (TIL10); or 9.1 mg/lb BW (20 mg/kg BW) tilmicosin (TIL20). In Study I, calves receiving tilmicosin had lower BRD morbidity (P<0.01) and mortality rates (P=0.02) compared to controls. Furthermore, BRD morbidity was lower (P≤0.05) in the TIL20 (16.8%) compared to the TIL10 (24.3%) group. Average daily gain was improved (P<0.01) in both tilmicosin metaphylaxis treatment groups compared to controls when deads and removals were not included in the final calculations (2.9 lb and 3.0 lb vs 2.8 lb or 1.32 kg and 1.36 kg vs 1.27 kg), as well as when deads and removals were included in the evaluation (2.7 lb and 2.8 lb vs 2.4 lb or 1.23 kg and 1.27 kg vs 1.09 kg, respectively). Calves treated metaphylactically with tilmicosin had greater economic return per pen (P<0.01) than did controls. In Study II, calves in both TIL10 and TIL20 treatment groups had lower (P≤0.05) morbidity compared to controls (68.5, 49.9, and 44.0% for control, TIL10, and TIL20, respectively). No significant differences in performance were observed between treatment groups.

description: Using the signal and idler photons produced by parametric downconversion, we report an experimental observation of a violation of the Bell inequality for energy and time based purely on the geometric phases of the signal and idler photons. We thus show that energy-time entanglement between the signal and idler photons can be explored by means of their geometric phases. These results may have important practical implications for quantum information science by providing an additional means by which entanglement can be manipulated.

description: The behavioral distance between two processes is a measure of the deviation of their behaviors. Behavioral distance has been proposed for detecting the compromise of a process, by computing its behavioral distance from another process executed on the same input. Provided that the two processes are diverse and so unlikely to fall prey to the same attacks, an increase in behavioral distance might indicate the compromise of one of them. In this paper we propose a new approach to behavioral distance calculation using a new type of Hidden Markov Model. We also empirically evaluate the intrusion detection capability of our proposal when used to measure the distance between the system-call behaviors of diverse web servers. Our experiments show that it detects intrusions with substantially greater accuracy and with performance overhead comparable to that of prior proposals.

description: The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the Facility Location Problem for an already existing enterprise, in order to be rightly guided and choose the most suitable location for establishing a possible new unit. The target of the Facility Location Problem combines the satisfaction of consumers’ needs with the lowest possible cost, taking under consideration a series of constraints. In order for a deeper understanding of the facility location choice complexity, a variety of methods were analyzed with respect to notice the processes of the candidate location decision. Furthermore, a sensitivity analysis was implemented with respect to notice possible changes and affections within our sample. Finally, respecting that a possible location change after an installation is both difficult and costly, we carefully balanced and compared all the above results, in order to confirm our initial target.

Extending Coinductive Logic Programming with Co-Facts

description: We introduce a generalized logic programming paradigm where programs, consisting of facts and rules with the usual syntax, can be enriched by co-facts, which syntactically resemble facts but have a special meaning. As in coinductive logic programming, interpretations are subsets of the complete Herbrand basis, including infinite terms. However, the intended meaning (declarative semantics) of a program is a fixed point which is not necessarily the least, nor the greatest one, but is determined by co-facts. In this way, it is possible to express predicates on non well-founded structures, such as infinite lists and graphs, for which the coinductive interpretation would be not precise enough. Moreover, this paradigm nicely subsumes standard (inductive) and coinductive logic programming, since both can be expressed by a particular choice of co-facts, hence inductive and coinductive predicates can coexist in the same program. We illustrate the paradigm by examples, and provide declarative and operational semantics, proving the correctness of the latter. Finally, we describe a prototype meta-interpreter.

description: In this paper, we show that eternal inflation of the random walk type is generically absent in the brane inflationary scenario. Depending on how the brane inflationary universe originated, eternal inflation of the false vacuum type is still quite possible. Since the inflaton is the position of the D3-brane relative to the anti-D3-brane inside the compactified bulk with finite size, its value is bounded. In DBI inflation, the warped space also restricts the amplitude of the scalar fluctuation. These upper bounds impose strong constraints on the possibility of eternal inflation. We find that eternal inflation due to the random walk of the inflaton field is absent in both the KKLMMT slow roll scenario and the DBI scenario. A more careful analysis for the slow-roll case is also presented using the Langevin equation, which gives very similar results. We discuss possible ways to obtain eternal inflation of the random walk type in brane inflation. In the multi-throat brane inflationary scenario, the branes may be generated by quantum tunneling and roll out the throat. Eternal inflation of the false vacuum type inevitably happens in this scenario due to the tunneling process. Since these scenarios have different cosmological predictions, more data from the cosmic microwave background radiation will hopefully select the specific scenario our universe has gone through.

description: Bismuth and Nickel transparent oxides thin films were grown on glass and flexible polythelene terephalate (PET) substrates by DC sputtering technique at room temperature 300 K. The structures of Bi2O3 and NiO films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A profilometry is used to measure the thicknesses of the ultrathin films. These values were established by a spectro-ellipsometry technique with a new amorphous dispersion model in the range of 200 nm to 2200 nm with one nm increment. In addition, the optical constants of these films were investigated using a double beam UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer and a spectro-ellipsometry and compared using the same wavelength range. They present an excellent agreement. According to the optical transmittance spectra of the films a high average transmittance in the visible region of each sample deposited onto different substrates is measured. Moreover, the absorption coefficients and the optical energy gaps for four types of optical transitions (allowed direct, forbidden direct, allowed indirect, forbidden indirect) of the films were determined and compared with the two different techniques. Finally, the nature of the structure and morphology of Bi2O3 and NiO ultrathin films has been analyzed and compared.

description: Blackleg (Clostridium chauvoei infection) has long been recognized as a cause of death in calves grazing summer pastures. Clinical signs are not often observed in affected calves due to the peracute nature of the disease, but may include fever, lameness, and swelling and crepitation over large muscle groups, followed by collapse and death. Typical gross and histopathologic lesions in these muscle groups are well-described and include gelatinous, gassy subcutaneous changes, along with well-defined muscle necrosis. Areas of necrosis can also be present in myocardium, diaphragm, and tongue, among other sites. Primary gross lesions consisted of pleuritis and pericarditis in animals examined in this report. More typical blackleg lesions were found in some but not all calves, including necrosis in thigh and abdominal muscles, dark discoloration of diaphragm muscle, and histologic evidence of necrotic myocarditis. Practitioners finding these lesions in animals found dead on pasture should consider C. chauvoei infection as the diagnosis regardless of whether muscle necrosis lesions are present.
