description: Le modèle d’inspection des services vétérinaires en abattoir repose sur une présence en continu des agents de l’Etat dans les espaces de travail. Les leçons institutionnelles tirées de la crise de la vache folle ont conduit à orienter le système de surveillance sanitaire vers l’autocontrôle et la responsabilisation des industriels. Les équipes vétérinaires ont accompagné la mise en place de ce système dans les entreprises, mais leur présence est actuellement disqualifiée car elle complexifie la détermination de la responsabilité juridique entre les acteurs privés et publics. L’observation de l’activité concrète des techniciens vétérinaires et d’une inspectrice dans un abattoir montre la diversité des registres de contrôle et de coopération avec le personnel, pour adapter les règles sanitaires aux réalités productives. En dépit des problèmes que pose ce mode d’inspection, il s’agit de comparer ses intérêts aux alternatives envisagées dans le cadre du « paquet hygiène ».

description: An influence of some incorrectness of analysis on the level densities and radiative strength functions derived from the experimental gamma-spectra is considered. It was shown that the obtaining of reliable data from the reaction (n,2gamma) requires one to derive dependence of the two-step cascade intensities on their primary transitions energy. The influence of some conditions of an analysis of the experimental gamma-spectra from reaction (3He,alpha) on the expected value of both level density and radiative strength functions was estimated. The ways to decrease these uncertainties are suggested.

description: Ten years after his death and twenty after his resignation from Banca d’Italia governorship, Paolo Baffi’s ideas and achievements as regards the protection of savings and the fight against a high and volatile inflation in the turbulent 1970s are reviewed. Against the backdrop of the constitutional precepts in this field, the proposals to shorten maturities and to index bond coupons, first advanced in the well known address Baffi delivered at Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, were translated into Treasury decisions on public debt at his instigation. Moreover, in the concluding remarks he pronounced at the Banca d’Italia General Meeting of Shareholders between 1976 and 1979 there are many hints at problems and solutions that have become prominent in the 1980s and 1990s.

description: Using a multi-field stochastic approach, we investigate the vacuum expectation value (VEV) during inflation of a scalar field charged under a mildly broken global $U(1)$ symmetry that can play the role of baryon or lepton number, or possibly a dark baryon number or a combination of the three. Even for a CP invariant Lagrangian, the stochastic distribution of inflationary VEVs in general breaks CP spontaneously, allowing for successful baryogenesis via the Affleck-Dine mechanism. For the Hubble scale during inflation $H_\ast$ as high as $10^{13}$ GeV, we show that the post-inflationary relaxation of the charged scalar with stochastic initial conditions can explain the observed baryon asymmetry, and that a charged scalar mass at the order of $H_\ast$ is favored by the isocurvature constraints.

description: Early detection of cancer increases the probability of recovery. This paper presents an intelligent decision support system (IDSS) for the early diagnosis of cancer based on gene expression profiles collected using DNA microarrays. Such datasets pose a challenge because of the small number of samples (no more than a few hundred) relative to the large number of genes (in the order of thousands). Therefore, a method of reducing the number of features (genes) that are not relevant to the disease of interest is necessary to avoid overfitting. The proposed methodology uses the information gain (IG) to select the most important features from the input patterns. Then, the selected features (genes) are reduced by applying the grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm. Finally, the methodology employs a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for cancer type classification. The proposed methodology was applied to two datasets (Breast and Colon) and was evaluated based on its classification accuracy, which is the most important performance measure in disease diagnosis. The experimental results indicate that the proposed methodology is able to enhance the stability of the classification accuracy as well as the feature selection.

L’article suggère que ce récit dominant est en lui-même le produit de luttes symboliques et qu’il ne dit rien sur les luttes institutionnelles internes à l’Agriculture. Il propose un autre récit, articulé autour du corps des inspecteurs vétérinaires. Promu par le ministère pour maintenir sa domination sectorielle, le corps des inspecteurs vétérinaires a bénéficié des réformes post-critiques en termes de prestige et de pouvoir administratifs. Prolongeant le processus de sectorisation de la sécurité sanitaire des aliments, ces réformes ont toutefois renforcé les chaînes d’interdépendance, d’où le constat d’une victoire inattendue et paradoxale des inspecteurs de la santé publique vétérinaire (ISPV)
Capitalismo, socialismo e democrazia e le grandi imprese

description: The work takes issue with Schumpeter’s Capitalism, socialism and democracy, reviewing it in light of the recent historical evidence. The main thesis of Schumpeter’s book is that widespread concentration processes in modern capitalism, arising from static and dynamic economies of scale, are among the most important phenomena for economic development. As it is well known, Schumpeter believed that capitalism cannot survive and that socialism may work. The author, however, points out that Schumpeter’s view was highly influenced by the phenomena that took place between the second half of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth. However, more recent evidence suggests radical changes in the innovation and competition processes of capitalism. JEL Codes: P51, L13, B13

Assessing the water balance and future consumption scenarios for demand management of the Aldergrove aquifer in B.C.
Creators: name: Chan, Dulcie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Many municipalities in the Lower Fraser Valley rely on groundwater as their main source of water. With the rapid increase in population and land use intensification, excessive groundwater extraction is of growing concern. There is evidence that current extractions from the Aldergrove aquifer in Langley exceed sustainable rates but little quantitative information is available about water recharge and demand. The aims of this research is to assess the current status of this aquifer in terms of recharge, storage and discharge, with the use of current and historical climatic, geological, land use and consumption data. Consumption between 1995 and 2005 was used to project demands in 2015 based on 3 different future scenarios, and some demand management strategies were also evaluated. The results of the analysis suggests that the aquifer receives about 26 million m³ of recharge each year, and has a storage capacity of up to 200 million m³, with current water content less than 70% of capacity. Natural discharge is around 22 to 26 million m³, while current consumption is 7 million m³ . Of all the land uses, agriculture occupies the largest area and also uses the most water, accounting for over half of total consumption. Since the climate over the past 10 years has remained largely constant while urbanization has increased, the reductions in water levels are due to increasing consumption. Projections based on the 'business as usual', 'greater growth', and 'conservation' scenarios suggest that consumption will range from 6 to 11 million m³ by 2015. The evaluation of demand management strategies based on increasing efficiency of water use suggests that significant reductions can be achieved in the agricultural and residential sectors, which has a combined potential of reducing the current total annual consumption by at least 20%. However, these conservation efforts are insufficient by themselves to reduce consumption to 'sustainable' levels. The analysis shows that current extraction is unsustainable and unless drastic measures are taken to reduce water use and/or increase supply, the aquifer will not be able to continue meeting demands in the near future.

Inmitten der Weingärten liegt das Weinhotel mit direktem Ausblick auf den Ort Dürnstein. Durch eine intensive Auseinandersetzung mit der Umgebung soll der Entwurf auf deren Qualitäten reagieren. Das Hotel steht ganz im Zeichen des Weins. Der Name "Federspiel" stammt von einer Bezeichnung für die besten Weine der Wachau ab, den ausschließlich Weine von Winzern aus dieser Region tragen dürfen. Das Hotel soll sich in das Landschaftsbild integrieren und das neue Aushängeschild der Weinbetriebe in der Umgebung werden. Dabei soll sich das Thema Wein sowohl in der Architektur als auch im Angebot widerspiegeln. Im Fokus stehen hierbei die Weinliebhaber, die durch eine breite Palette an Angeboten wie Weinverkostungen, Weinseminaren, Kulinarik sowie Hochzeiten ihren Weg zum Weinhotel finden sollen. Ganz nach dem Motto: "Die Weingärten hautnah erleben".

description: We give explicit algorithms and source code for extracting factors underlying Treasury yields using (unsupervised) machine learning (ML) techniques, such as nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) and (statistically deterministic) clustering. NMF is a popular ML algorithm (used in computer vision, bioinformatics/computational biology, document classification, etc.), but is often misconstrued and misused. We discuss how to properly apply NMF to Treasury yields. We analyze the factors based on NMF and clustering and their interpretation. We discuss their implications for forecasting Treasury yields in the context of out-of-sample ML stability issues.

description: The implementation of the little Higgs mechanism to solve the hierarchy problem provides an interesting guiding principle to build particle physics models beyond the electroweak scale. Most model building works, however, pay not much attention to the fermionic sector. Through a case example, we illustrate how a complete and consistent fermionic sector of the TeV effective field theory may actually be largely dictated by the gauge structure of the model. The completed fermionic sector has specific flavor physics structure, and many phenomenological constraints on the model can thus be obtained beyond gauge, Higgs, and top physics. We take a first look on some of the quark sector constraints.

description: The purpose of this project is to describe the implementation of the booster session for Project Latino STYLE, a family-based HIV prevention program for Latino youth. I was given the opportunity to develop the booster manuals and materials for the three-month follow up, which serve to address the challenges in treatment effects that develop over time and to further reinforce previous treatment gains. While booster sessions play important roles on treatment effects, they can vary in their content, delivery and duration and serve as mechanisms to reduce challenges that can occur in treatment effects. Initially, this project will highlight the importance of booster follow-up sessions as maintenance strategies that reinforce treatment effects and produce sustainable behavioral changes over time. A review of past social behavioral interventions that integrated booster sessions during treatment, along with those that did not implement booster maintenance strategies will also be explored. Lastly, the challenges caused by booster implementation will be discussed along with future implications for research in designing booster sessions as effective behavioral intervention strategies.

description: To exploit global growth and cost saving opportunities companies have built up global production networks. Originally the primary motivation of companies to globalize production was to take advantage of low-cost labor and the need to meet local-content requirements. Nowadays globalization of production is more and more driven by a dramatic shift in global demands to the emerging markets. In response to the ever increasing cost pressure, strengthened localization requirements and increasing global growth opportunities, also automotive suppliers relocate production from saturated to emerging markets. As a result global networks are created with value creation fragmented in global multi-organizational networks. The impact of relocated global production networks on flexibility, quality and logistics cost is often underestimated. This master thesis researches the problem how automotive suppliers can optimize their global production networks to grow their business, reduce cost and fulfil customer responsiveness requirements. In the first part of the research, global production network stereotypes and methods to optimize global production networks are described. The traditional production network theory proposes a periodic strategic process to optimize global production networks. The lean production network theory proposes to follow lean production network principles and to use extended value stream mapping to optimize value-streams from the suppliers to the customer. In the second part of the research the lean production network orientation of global production network stereotypes and of the global production network of an automotive supplier are assessed. The "Region for Region" model is identified as a network type with the target to enable global growth and to fulfil the lean production network principles: value stream concentration, customer proximity and optimization of total cost of ownership. The last part of the research introduces Global Production Relocation Mapping as lean method to visualize, analyze, simulate and optimize the impact of global production relocations on lead-times, inventories, transportation requirements and logistics costs. The method defines a direct production cost saving target that must be met to compensate increased logistics costs. Summarizing the method supports companies to take the right relocation decision and to optimize the global production network to ensure that the relocation will deliver sustainable financial benefits.

description: Collaborative research can promote knowledge translation and help to link care practice and research. Academic-practice partnerships enable joint research projects in collaboration between care professionals, researchers, patients, and other stakeholders. This qualitative study was conducted during the adaptation phase of the Living Lab Dementia, an academic-practice partnership for collaborative research on long-term dementia care. The aim was to explore stakeholders’ perspectives on linking care practice and research in a sustainable, research-focused partnership. Data were collected in fifteen qualitative interviews with representatives from three stakeholder groups: nursing care professionals, people with dementia, and nursing researchers. Thematic Framework Analysis resulted in five themes: (1) Access, (2) Expectations, (3) Shaping the collaboration, (4) Linking Pins, and (5) Participation. The findings suggest that care professionals expect support in implementing research results into practice. Researchers should take the lead in shaping the collaboration and create opportunities for stakeholders to get involved.

description: he coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is putting healthcare systems across the world under unprecedented and increasing pressure according to the World Health Organization (WHO). With the advances in computer algorithms and especially Artificial Intelligence, the detection of this type of virus in the early stages will help in fast recovery and help in releasing the pressure off healthcare systems. In this paper, a GAN with deep transfer learning for coronavirus detection in chest X-ray images is presented. The lack of datasets for COVID-19 especially in chest X-rays images is the main motivation of this scientific study. The main idea is to collect all the possible images for COVID-19 that exists until the writing of this research and use the GAN network to generate more images to help in the detection of this virus from the available X-rays images with the highest accuracy possible. The dataset used in this research was collected from different sources and it is available for researchers to download and use it. The number of images in the collected dataset is 307 images for four different types of classes. The classes are the COVID-19, normal, pneumonia bacterial, and pneumonia virus. Three deep transfer models are selected in this research for investigation. The models are the Alexnet, Googlenet, and Restnet18. Those models are selected for investigation through this research as it contains a small number of layers on their architectures, this will result in reducing the complexity, the consumed memory and the execution time for the proposed model. Three case scenarios are tested through the paper, the first scenario includes four classes from the dataset, while the second scenario includes 3 classes and the third scenario includes two classes. All the scenarios include the COVID-19 class as it is the main target of this research to be detected. In the first scenario, the Googlenet is selected to be the main deep transfer model as it achieves 80.6% in testing accuracy. In the second scenario, the Alexnet is selected to be the main deep transfer model as it achieves 85.2% in testing accuracy, while in the third scenario which includes two classes (COVID-19, and normal), Googlenet is selected to be the main deep transfer model as it achieves 100% in testing accuracy and 99.9% in the validation accuracy. All the performance measurement strengthens the obtained results through the research.

description: While the Polyakov loop is an order parameter of the deconfinement transition in the heavy quark mass regime of QCD, its sensitivity to the deconfinement of light, dynamical quarks in QCD is not apparent. On the other hand, the quark mass dependence of the Polyakov loop is sensitive to the appearance of a chiral phase transition. Using lattice QCD calculations in the staggered fermion discretization scheme at finite values of the lattice spacing, $aT = 1/8$, we show here, for the first time, that the Polyakov loop expectation value, and the heavy quark free energy extracted from it, behave like energy-like observables in the vicinity of the chiral phase transition temperature $T_c$. Consistent with scaling behavior of energy-like observables in the 3-$d$, O(2) universality class, the quark mass derivatives diverge in the chiral limit at $T_c$ while the temperature derivatives stay finite. The latter will develop a characteristic spike at $T_c$. This, however, may be resolved only in calculations with quark masses being two orders of magnitude smaller than those currently accessible in lattice QCD calculations.

Differential effects of basolateral amygdala inactivation on cue-induced reinstatement and extinction of food-seeking behavior
Creators: name: McLaughlin, Ryan Joseph
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Reinstatement of previously extinguished instrumental responding for drug related cues has been used as an animal model for relapse of drug abuse, and is disrupted by inactivation of the basolateral amygdala (Bl_A). However, the role that the BLA plays in reinstatement for natural rewards is currently unknown. In Experiments 1A and 1B, rats with bilateral cannulae implanted into either the caudal or rostral BLA were trained to press a lever to receive delivery of food reward paired with a complex light/tone conditioned stimulus (CS). Following initial training, they underwent extinction of lever pressing in the absence of the CS. Reinstatement of extinguished lever pressing was measured during response-contingent presentations of the CS alone. Rats receiving saline infusions into the caudal or rostral BIA displayed a significant increase in lever pressing during reinstatement sessions relative to their last day of extinction training. Inactivation of these subregions with bupivacaine did not attenuate responding for the CS in the absence of food delivery, and in fact, caudal BLA inactivation potentiated responding relative to vehicle controls. Analysis of within-session responding revealed that caudal BLA inactivation retarded extinction of lever pressing in response to the CS. In a separate series of experiments, inactivation of the caudal BLA on day 1 or day 2 of extinction training significantly disrupted consolidation of extinction learning on the following day. These data suggest that neural circuits which underlie cue-induced reinstatement for drug-related stimuli are different from those which mediate responding for conditioned reinforcers associated with natural rewards. Moreover, they suggest that the caudal BLA may play a role in extinction of instrumental responding for conditioned reinforcement in the absence of primary reinforcement.

description: Am einstweiligen Höhepunkt bautechnologischer Entwicklung erkennen wir heute anhand von Indikatoren wie dem Global Footprint, dass wir gesamtheitlich betrachtet weit von global anwendbaren nachhaltigen Produktionsmethoden entfernt sind. Produzieren, konsumieren und wohnen lassen sich dabei nicht voneinander trennen. Sucht man nach den Ursachen von Mensch-Natur-Unverträglichkeit, so scheint es, dass Kulturfortschritt generell in Konfrontation zur Biologie steht. Einen möglichen Ausweg aus dem 'abiotischen Produktionskonzept' eröffnen neue Bio-Wissenschaften, die versuchen, aus Biologie eine produktiv nutzbare Technologie zu machen. So könnten langfristig ganze Gebäude und mit ihnen auch die Produkte, die wir heute für unseren Lebensstil zusätzlich benötigen, nicht nur umweltverträglich wachsen. Als lebende Organismen könnten unsere zukünftigen Häuser auch viele weitere vorteilhafte Eigenschaften mit sich bringen. Die Herangehensweise beim Entwurf des biologischer Habitats orientiert sich an Arbeitsmethoden der Biowissenschaften, wenn sie vorhandene biologische Funktionsbausteine kombiniert und dabei biologische Systemeigenschaften berücksichtigt. Die Arbeit versucht auch die möglicherweise stark veränderten Anforderungen an Wohnen in einer nun biologisch produzierenden Gesellschaft im Entwurf des Habitats und möglichen Siedlungstrukturen zu berücksichtigen.
description: At the summit of technological development we recognize when looking on environment indicators such as the Global Footprint, that we are far off from having the right methods to produce globally in a sustainable way. The production of daily goods and those we need for housing cannot be separated. Searching for the reasons of today's human-nature incompatibility, it seems like oppressing nature is a characteristic of cultural progress. New biological sciences could show a way out of the 'abiotic production problem', when transforming biology into a new powerful production technology. In a long-term view, whole buildings and most of the products we need to live inside them could grow in a sustainable way. As living organisms, our future homes could come along with many other advantages. The designing process of these biological habitats must base on applied methods of life sciences, when identifying as much existing biological functions, or 'biological bricks', as possible and combining them to a whole new organism, regarding known specifics of biological systems. Then, this work tries to reflect possibly changed requirements on housing and living in a society, producing and settling biologically.

description: The multifunctionality of Swiss agriculture is well recognized and is written into the Federal Constitution. Rural landscape maintenance is one of these public functions but it is challenged by high forest expansion. Within this context, the interdisciplinary PASTO project tested new beef production practices that should both help maintain the landscape and create added value for the local economy. A typology of the Hérens cattle breeders of the Valais was established. The landscape maintenance and marketing practices of the different breeder groups are very different. The public policy instruments are translated by the social representations and motivations of the breeders and result in heterogenous spatial impacts. The question is if the establishment of a regional meat chain with landscape objective can represent a harmonization tool that may give a shared meaning and objectives to the existing heterogenous practices and a more coherent spatial and territorial impact.

description: We examined whether inaccurate teacher judgements of primary school student achievement correlate with students’ gender and whether such bias contributes to gender achievement gaps in language and mathematics. Our study used ex-post harmonised longitudinal data from England, Germany, and the US. We observed domain-specific teacher judgement bias with a positive bias for girls in the language domain and for boys in mathematics. Furthermore, biased teacher judgements partly mediated the effect of gender on later achievement. Despite these common findings, cross-country differences emerged in the extent of teacher judgement bias as well as its mediation of gender achievement gaps. We conclude that this is a topic of relevance across national contexts and where the institutional and societal setting needs more attention in future research.

description: We demonstrate that two-dimensional two-component bright solitons of an annular shape, carrying vorticities $(m,\pm m)$ in the components, may be stable in media with the cubic-quintic nonlinearity, including the \textit{hidden-vorticity} (HV) solitons of the type $(m,-m)$, whose net vorticity is zero. Stability regions for the vortices of both $(m,\pm m)$ types are identified for $m=1$, 2, and 3, by dint of the calculation of stability eigenvalues, and in direct simulations. A novel feature found in the study of the HV solitons is that their stability intervals never reach the (cutoff) point at which the bright vortex carries over into a dark one, hence dark HV solitons can never be stable, contrarily to the bright ones. In addition to the well-known symmetry-breaking (\textit{external}) instability, which splits the ring soliton into a set of fragments flying away in tangential directions, we report two new scenarios of the development of weak instabilities specific to the HV solitons. One features \textit{charge flipping}, with the two components exchanging the angular momentum and periodically reversing the sign of their spins. The composite soliton does not split in this case, therefore we identify such instability as an \textit{intrinsic} one. Eventually, the soliton splits, as weak radiation loss drives it across the border of the ordinary strong (external) instability. Another scenario proceeds through separation of the vortex cores in the two components, each individual core moving toward the outer edge of the annular soliton. After expulsion of the cores, there remains a zero-vorticity breather with persistent internal vibrations.

description: The increasing popularity of social media promotes the proliferation of fake news, which has caused significant negative societal effects. Therefore, fake news detection on social media has recently become an emerging research area of great concern. With the development of multimedia technology, fake news attempts to utilize multimedia content with images or videos to attract and mislead consumers for rapid dissemination, which makes visual content an important part of fake news. Despite the importance of visual content, our understanding of the role of visual content in fake news detection is still limited. This chapter presents a comprehensive review of the visual content in fake news, including the basic concepts, effective visual features, representative detection methods and challenging issues of multimedia fake news detection. This chapter can help readers to understand the role of visual content in fake news detection, and effectively utilize visual content to assist in detecting multimedia fake news.

description: Motivated by recent studies of population coding in theoretical neuroscience, we examine the optimality of a recently described form of stochastic resonance known as suprathreshold stochastic resonance, which occurs in populations of noisy threshold devices such as models of sensory neurons. Using the mutual information measure, it is shown numerically that for a random input signal, the optimal threshold distribution contains singularities. For large enough noise, this distribution consists of a single point and hence the optimal encoding is realized by the suprathreshold stochastic resonance effect. Furthermore, it is shown that a bifurcational pattern appears in the optimal threshold settings as the noise intensity increases. Fisher information is used to examine the behavior of the optimal threshold distribution as the population size approaches infinity.

description: Turing's theory of pattern formation has been used to describe the formation of self-organised periodic patterns in many biological, chemical and physical systems. However, the use of such models is hindered by our inability to predict, in general, which pattern is obtained from a given set of model parameters. While much is known near the onset of the spatial instability, the mechanisms underlying pattern selection and dynamics away from onset are much less understood. Here, we provide new physical insight into the dynamics of these systems. We find that peaks in a Turing pattern behave as point sinks, the dynamics of which are determined by the diffusive fluxes into them. As a result, peaks move towards a periodic steady-state configuration that minimizes the mass of the diffusive species. We also show that the preferred number of peaks at the final steady-state is such that this mass is minimised. Our work presents mass minimization as a simple, generalisable, physical principle for understanding pattern formation in reaction diffusion systems far from onset.
