Into the Hedge
Creators: name: Klapstein, Evan
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: The act of altering our environment today is fraught with hoops of regulatory and legal permission. Existing outside these systems, the hedge in Vancouver lives invisibly to local bylaws and building regulations. The favourable local climate means they also commonly grow to dwarf adjacent buildings. This has created a discrepancy between scale and lack of regulation that positions the hedge uniquely as a spatial agent capable of soft, slow and subversive change. Overlooked by most, this project follows an individual gardener who has recognized the hedge’s potential and chose to act upon it. Going into the hedge, the gardener will experiment with the hedge as a living collaborator and co-conspirator across time, constructing a furtive new local architectural prototype that rethinks the nature of building and the building of nature.

description: We describe initial results of a search for redshifted molecular absorption toward four millimetre-loud, optically faint quasars. A wide frequency bandwidth of up to 23 GHz per quasar was scanned using the Swedish-ESO Sub-millimetre Telescope at La Silla. Using a search list of commonly detected molecules, we obtained nearly complete redshift coverage up to z_abs=5. The sensitivity of our data is adequate to have revealed absorption systems with characteristics similar to those seen in the four known redshifted millimetre-band absorption systems, but none were found. Our frequency-scan technique nevertheless demonstrates the value of wide-band correlator instruments for searches such as these. We suggest that a somewhat larger sample of similar observations should lead to the discovery of new millimetre-band absorption systems.

Splendor in the grass? Troubled tales of turf grass dissertation data discoverability
Creators: name: Bennett, Terrence

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: A dissertation tells the story of a scholar's entrée into academic life. As the major distinguishing feature of education, the dissertation serves the dual role of making a significant contribution to knowledge and providing training in scholarly techniques. New scholars wish to expose their ideas, but what barriers do dissertators face in dissemination of dissertations and attendant data? And how do libraries integrate available datasets into retrieval services? Are there common schemas to promote linkages across the scholarly communication ecosystem? For this presentation, we revisit the oft-told tale of exploration into the availability and findability of dissertation-related data. To tell our version of this story, we focus on the arcane domain of turfgrass science -- because of its appeal beyond the academy to a large multinational practitioner base--to investigate dissertations across an international sample of research libraries. We examine their presentation of dissertations and, perhaps more importantly, the discoverability and availability of related data files. We then examine and analyze the means by which the data files are attached to the dissertations. Results will inform data literacy praxis and curation protocols, and address concerns around ensuring that these scholars' early stories can be told to future generations.

description: The segmentation of ultra-high resolution images poses challenges such as loss of spatial information or computational inefficiency. In this work, a novel approach that combines encoder-decoder architectures with domain decomposition strategies to address these challenges is proposed. Specifically, a domain decomposition-based U-Net (DDU-Net) architecture is introduced, which partitions input images into non-overlapping patches that can be processed independently on separate devices. A communication network is added to facilitate inter-patch information exchange to enhance the understanding of spatial context. Experimental validation is performed on a synthetic dataset that is designed to measure the effectiveness of the communication network. Then, the performance is tested on the DeepGlobe land cover classification dataset as a real-world benchmark data set. The results demonstrate that the approach, which includes inter-patch communication for images divided into $16\times16$ non-overlapping subimages, achieves a $2-3\,\%$ higher intersection over union (IoU) score compared to the same network without inter-patch communication. The performance of the network which includes communication is equivalent to that of a baseline U-Net trained on the full image, showing that our model provides an effective solution for segmenting ultra-high-resolution images while preserving spatial context.

description: An odd Coxeter group $W$ is one which admits a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ for which all the exponents $m_{ij}$ are either odd or infinity. The paper investigates the family of odd Coxeter groups whose associated labeled graphs $\mathcal{V}_{(W,S)}$ are trees. It is known that two Coxeter groups in this family are isomorphic if and only if they admit Coxeter systems having the same rank and the same multiset of finite exponents. In particular, each group in this family is isomorphic to a group that admits a Coxeter system whose associated labeled graph is a star shaped tree. We give the complete description of the automorphism group of this group, and derive a sufficient condition for the splitting of the automorphism group as a semi-direct product of the inner and the outer automorphism groups. As applications, we prove that Coxeter groups in this family satisfy the $R_\infty$-property and are (co)-Hopfian. We compare structural properties, automorphism groups, $\R_\infty$-property and (co)-Hopfianity of a special odd Coxeter group whose only finite exponent is three with the braid group and the twin group.

description: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing pandemic caused due to new coronavirus infection with 3716075 deaths across the world as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO). SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) plays a vital role in the replication of coronavirus and thus an attractive target for the screening of inhibitors for the therapy of COVID-19. The preclinical drugs ebselen and PX-12 are potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro and covalently modifies the active site Cys-145 residue of Mpro through selenosulfide/disulfide. In the current report, using virtual screening methods, reactive sulfur species allicin is subjecting for covalent docking at the active site of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro using PX-12 as a benchmark reference compound. The results indicate that allicin induces dual S-thioallylation of Cys-145 and Cys-85/ Cys-156 residues of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. Using density functional theory (DFT), Gibbs free energy change (DG) is calculated for the putative reactions between N-acetylcysteine amide thiol and allicin/allyl sulfenic acid. The overall reaction is exergonic and allyl disulfide of Cys-145 residue of Mpro is involved in a sulfur mediated hydrogen bond. The results indicate that allicin causes dual S-thioallylation of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro which may be of interest for treatment and attenuation of ongoing coronavirus infection.

description: We study gravity duals of large N non-supersymmetric gauge theories with matter in the fundamental representation by introducing a D7-brane probe into deformed AdS backgrounds. In particular, we consider a D7-brane probe in both the AdS Schwarzschild black hole solution and in the background found by Constable and Myers, which involves a non-constant dilaton and S^5 radius. Both these backgrounds exhibit confinement of fundamental matter and a discrete glueball and meson spectrum. We numerically compute the quark condensate and meson spectrum associated with these backgrounds. In the AdS-black hole background, a quark-bilinear condensate develops only at non-zero quark mass. We speculate on the existence of a third order phase transition at a critical quark mass where the D7 embedding undergoes a geometric transition. In the Constable-Myers background, we find a chiral symmetry breaking condensate as well as the associated Goldstone boson in the limit of small quark mass. The existence of the condensate ensures that the D7-brane never reaches the naked singularity at the origin of the deformed AdS space.

description: Precise photometric and astrometric measurements on astronomical images require an accurate knowledge of the Point Spread Function (PSF). When the PSF cannot be modelled directly from the image, PSF-reconstruction techniques become the only viable solution. So far, however, their performance on real observations has rarely been quantified. Aims. In this Letter, we test the performance of a novel hybrid technique, called PRIME, on Adaptive Optics-assisted SPHERE/ZIMPOL observations of the Galactic globular cluster NGC6121. Methods. PRIME couples PSF-reconstruction techniques, based on control-loop data and direct image fitting performed on the only bright point-like source available in the field of view of the ZIMPOL exposures, with the aim of building the PSF model. Results. By exploiting this model, the magnitudes and positions of the stars in the field can be measured with an unprecedented precision, which surpasses that obtained by more standard methods by at least a factor of four for on-axis stars and by up to a factor of two on fainter, off-axis stars. Conclusions. Our results demonstrate the power of PRIME in recovering precise magnitudes and positions when the information directly coming from astronomical images is limited to only a few point-like sources and, thus, paving the way for a proper analysis of future Extremely Large Telescope observations of sparse stellar fields or individual extragalactic objects.

Year: 2018

description: Considerations of sharing research data when publishing in academic sciences journals have become increasingly common in the last decade thanks to mandates by national and international granting agencies. Yet, similar directives for social and behavioral sciences journals have been slow to gain traction. This presentation explores the presence of research data management language in manuscript submission directions for the top 136 academic journals in sociology, psychology, political science, and general social sciences as determined by 2015/2016 Scimago and Eigenfactor journal rankings. Official journal websites were examined via content analysis for specific data policies, as well as general mentions of data sharing and data management. The presentation makes unique contributions to existing data management and scholarly communications literature by: 1) drawing attention to data language used by publishers of social and behavioral sciences journals; 2) examining existing data policies and requirements for publication from journals; and 3) discussing how brief or non-existent journal data policies interrupt the data lifecycle.

description: The human-nature divide is dissolved. Cohabitation between species is commonplace, and humans exist as part of an entangled Oikos, entwined with the more-than-human world. Binaries between inside and outside are fleeting. Our living spaces attune us to thermal, ephemeral environmental conditions and the many beings, entities, and forces we exist alongside. What does a home in Vancouver look like if humans willingly relinquish dominancy? How can a home for many collaborate with the nearby Camosun Bog? Infrastructures are placed onto which humans moor themselves, allowing for an improvisation of thresholds and a collaboration of living conditions.

description: We present a (V-R)-based reddening map of about 43 square degrees of the Galactic bulge/bar. The map is constructed using template image photometry from the MACHO microlensing survey, contains 9717 resolution elements, and is based on (V-R)-color averages of the entire color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) in 4 by 4 arc-minute tiles. The conversion from the observed color to the reddening follows from an assumption that CMDs of all bulge fields would look similar in the absence of extinction. Consequently, the difference in observed color between various fields originates from varying contribution of the disk extinction summed along different lines of sight. We check that our (V-R) colors correlate very well with infrared and optical reddening maps. We show that a dusty disk obeying a cosec|b| extinction law, E(V-R) = 0.0274 cosec|b|, provides a good approximation to the extinction toward the MACHO bulge/bar fields. The large-scale (V-R)-color and visual extinction map presented here is publicly available in the electronic edition of the Journal and on the World Wide Web.

description: Conformal truncation is a powerful numerical method for solving generic strongly-coupled quantum field theories based on purely field-theoretic technics without introducing lattice regularization. We discuss possible speedups for performing those computations using quantum devices, with the help of near-term and future quantum algorithms. We show that this construction is very similar to quantum simulation problems appearing in quantum chemistry (which are widely investigated in quantum information science), and the renormalization group theory provides a field theory interpretation of conformal truncation simulation. Taking two-dimensional Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) as an example, we give various explicit calculations of variational and digital quantum simulations in the level of theories, classical trials, or quantum simulators from IBM, including adiabatic state preparation, variational quantum eigensolver, imaginary time evolution, and quantum Lanczos algorithm. Our work shows that quantum computation could not only help us understand fundamental physics in the lattice approximation, but also simulate quantum field theory methods directly, which are widely used in particle and nuclear physics, sharpening the statement of the quantum Church-Turing Thesis.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Analysts are increasingly demanding access to more detailed data about individuals and organisations. However, the level of detail is such that these data are often considered "personal, sensitive, or confidential"; therefore access is restricted to a controlled environment or "safe setting". Many safe settings have statistical disclosure control (SDC) systems in place to review statistical results, to mitigate the risk of releasing confidential information and to prevent a data subject from being identified. While SDC is being used by many organisations in the UK, there is no common code of practice for the review of statistical results. Since 2017, the UK working group for Safe Data Access Professionals has been developing a handbook to help analysts and staff checking statistical results in a safe setting, by offering practical examples and tips. It also provides guidance to organisations on how to implement an efficient SDC processes. This presentation will give an overview of the contents of the SDC handbook, the general approach and aims behind this work and potential uses within the UK community.
The 4 Rs: Researcher credentials for replication and re-use of restricted data
Creators: name: Tyler, Allison
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: The value of research data comes not just from the original results of the research but from the utility of the data over time. Reuse of restricted data is challenged by the legal and ethical requirements to protect the research subjects, including lengthy data access request timeframes and oft-redundant identity verification processes within and between restricted data repositories. This paper will present the results of an organizational study of 23 U.S. and international restricted data services and repositories' data access processes that will lead to the development of a transferable researcher repository credential. The results of this study highlight repository practices, including the classification of data at different levels of restriction, expected researcher training and experience, and tracking of prior data use, that require reconciliation in order for the access credentials of one repository to be accepted at other repositories. Our analysis identifies inconsistencies in language and terminology as well as requirements. We present these points of conflict and provide suggestions for their harmonization.

description: In this study, hydrogen sulfide interaction with pristine, B-, N-, and B&N atom-doped beryllium oxide nanotube (BeONTs) is investigated by the density functional theory (DFT) method. At the first step, we considered different configuration models for the adsorption of H2S on the surface of nanotube and then we selected 12 stable models for this study. The structures of all selected models are optimized and the quantum properties, thermodynamic parameters, natural bond orbitals (NBO), reduced density gradient (RDG), molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), and atom in molecule (AIM) parameters are calculated at the cam–B3LYP level of theory with 6–31G (d) base set. The obtained Eads for the exterior surface of nanotube is exothermic and is in the range –3.15 to –28.34 Kcal mol–1, and that for the interior surface is endothermic and is in the range 19.17 to 27.17 kcal mol–1. The gap energy for pure, B-doped, N-doped, and B&N-doped BeONTs is 10.11, 10.03 (α spin), 10.13 (α spin), and 9.35 eV, respectively. The results of thermodynamic parameters, such as ΔG and ΔH values for the adsorption of H2S, on the surface of B-doped BeONTs are more negative than other models and favorable in thermodynamic approach. The NBO, MEP, NMR, and HOMO–LUMO results confirm that the electron charge transfer occurs from H2S molecule toward BeONTs, as a result the bonding type of H2S … BeONTs is weak ionic.
Restricting data's use: A spectrum of concerns in need of flexible approaches

Year: 2018

description: As researchers consider making their data available to others, they are concerned with the responsible use of data. As a result, they often seek to place restrictions on secondary use. The Research Connections archive at ICPSR makes available the datasets of dozens of studies related to childcare and early education. Of the 103 studies archived to date, 20 have some restrictions on access. While ICPSR's data access systems were designed primarily to accommodate public use data (i.e. data without disclosure concerns) and potentially disclosive data, our interactions with depositors reveal a more nuanced notion range of needs for restricting use. Some data present a relatively low risk of threatening participants' confidentiality, yet the data producers still want to monitor who is accessing the data and how they plan to use them. Other studies contain data with such a high risk of disclosure that their use must be restricted to a virtual data enclave. Still other studies rest on agreements with participants that require continuing oversight of secondary use by data producers, funders, and participants. We will describe data producers' range of needs to restrict data access and discuss how systems can better accommodate these needs.

description: In the UK, the world of national and local administrative data for policy still has many untold tales. Intriguing and informative stories are locked or buried away where researchers may not find them, and their keepers may not be willing to hand out their precious treasure, just yet. But all is not lost...the data enablers are here to help unlock the rich resources and maybe rescue and clean the gems and pearls. In other words, help is needed to make these data for policy, "research ready". Our data heroes believe that building trust and transparency is the key to success. Using the formalised data appraisal techniques and trusted data access governance frameworks used by the UK Data Service, we plan to build a proof-of-concept at a local level that can be extended to the national level. The "Data Enablers" work with the Challenge Lab research initiative, a partnership between the University of Essex and Essex County Council, aiming to improve the services provided by the public authority, such as Adult Social Care, Children and Families. Come and find out more about who these enablers are and what they are doing. We hope this story has a happy ending!

description: This study focuses on the prediction of missing six semantic relations (such as is_a and has_part) between two given nodes in RezoJDM a French lexical-semantic network. The output of this prediction is a set of pairs in which the first entries are semantic relations and the second entries are the probabilities of existence of such relations. Due to the statement of the problem we choose the random forest (RF) predictor classifier approach to tackle this problem. We take for granted the existing semantic relations, for training/test dataset, gathered and validated by crowdsourcing. We describe how all of the mentioned ideas can be followed after using the node2vec approach in the feature extraction phase. We show how this approach can lead to acceptable results.

description: The three-component reaction between amine, carbonyl compound and thioglycolic acid is now considered as a major strategy for synthesis of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones, which consists of the following steps: (i) condensation of aldehyde and amine which results the formation of an imine; (ii) the reaction between thioglycolic acid and the imine which is followed by an intramolecular cyclization reaction, which leads to the formation of the final product. In this way, if no suitable catalyst is employed, the completion of the reaction will not be achieved. Hence, it is of great importance to select an appropriate catalyst so that these compounds can be successfully synthesized. Herein, we employed LDHs@PpPDA as a versatile catalyst for the fabrication of novel derivatives of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one.

 Efferia rufitibia (Macquart). Martin & Papavero, 1970: 65. Syn., New Comb. (Macquart 's Haiti specimens).
 Remarks. Macquart (1848) described Erax rufitibia from two females from Brazil (Rio Negro) and southern Haiti. Later, Walker (1855) described E. fortis from a male collected from Santo Domingo and separated it from E. rufitibia largely based upon its hyaline wings. Curran (1953) recognized that Macquart 's type series consisted of two species and the difficulty of identifying females, especially based upon Macquart's description. He proposed that the name E. rufitibia be restricted to the Rio Negro specimen, leaving the Haitian specimen without a name. The latter was subsequently synonymized with E. fortis (Martin 1970).

description: An efficient Pd2(dba)3-catalyzed amination of C5-bromo-imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole using conventional heating is reported. The C5-bromoimidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole was synthesized using a multistep approach which started by cyclization of thiosemicarbazide with a carboxylic acid to give 2-amino[1,3,4]thiadiazoles which were further treated with 2-haloketones to give imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles. Then, the bromination of imidazothiadiazole was done using N-bromosuccinimide to give the C5-bromo-imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole. Afterward, various C-N bond-forming approaches were attempted such as SNAr, Cu(I), Cu(II), Pd(OAc)2, Pd2(dba)3 catalyst with different ligand, additive, base, solvent and temperature conditions. Out of various approaches used, only Buchwald Hartwig amination, performed with conventional heating, gave N-arylamine-5-imidazothiadiazoles. Then, 10 different anilines with different electron-withdrawing and donating groups at different positions were employed to examine the scope and limitations of the method. Salient features of this method include conventional heating in a Schlenk tube as the reaction condition, the absence of the use of toxic isocyanides, the wide nature of substituent tolerance with anilines, and moderately good product yields.

Generation of strong magnetic fields in a nascent neutron star accounting for the chiral magnetic effect

description: We propose the mean field dynamo model for the generation of strongest magnetic fields, $B\sim 10^{15}\,{\rm G}$, in a neutron star (NS) accounting for the chiral magnetic effect (CME) driven by the shock in a supernova (SN) progenitor of that NS. The temperature jump at a narrow shock front, where an initial magnetic field existing in inflowing matter rises sharply, is the source of the CME that prevails significantly the erasure of the CME due to the spin-flip through Coulomb collisions in plasma. The growth of the magnetic field just behind the shock given by the instability term $\nabla\times (α{\bf B})$ in induction equation, stops after a successful SN explosion that throws out the mantle of a protoneutron star. As a result, such an explosion interrupts the transfer of strongly magnetized plasma from the shock onto NS surface and leads to the saturation of the magnetic field. Assuming the rigid protostar rotation, we employ the mean field dynamo, which is similar to the $α^2$-dynamo known in the standard magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The novelty of our model is that $α^2$-dynamo is based on concepts of particle physics, applied in MHD, rather than by a mirror asymmetry of convective vortices in the rotating convection.

description: The development and adoption of online data distribution platforms has vastly improved access to geospatial resources. Metadata is the key to discovery of these resources, but the accompanying geospatial metadata ecosystem lags behind in terms of tools, authoring practices, and dedicated development efforts. As a result, it suffers from interoperability issues due to competing standards, inconsistent applications of schemas, and varying levels of descriptive quality. Our presentations will describe research into mitigating these issues and our progress on establishing consortia approaches to the creation of a shared corpus of geospatial metadata records. This work emerges from the growing community of developers and users of open source geospatial data discovery applications, particularly GeoBlacklight. We will provide an overview of the GeoBlacklight metadata schema and the main challenges that obstruct sharing metadata between projects. We will also introduce a proposed metadata scoring strategy, which provides a framework to evaluate its quality and can serve to inform decisions about cross-institutional metadata record ingest. The presentations will be followed by a moderated discussion on recommendations for remediating metadata, how this work can improve user experience, and opportunities for collaboration.

Data storytelling techniques: Presenting survey reports with hundreds pages in short time

description: One key skill for data analysts that is often overlooked: the ability to communicate findings clearly and effectively. If we as data analysts cannot deliver knowledge extracted from data and persuade users and audiences, then our analysis reports will collect dust on a shelf. The solution is data storytelling: using the power of narrative to communicate your findings in a way that resonates with our stakeholders. Storytelling is the mechanism used for sharing "knowledge" in the most engaging, memorable, and persuasive way possible, a technique that dates back to Aristotle's rhetoric. This presentation will show applications of Aristotle's pathos, ethos, and logos to current data-based market research presentations. Analysts and organizations conducting social research base their insights on large, systematic data collection and study. The full representation of this work is often a voluminous report, but the most effective communication of that work often comes in a brief summary presentation that can be enhanced by data storytelling. We will review examples of how to use data storytelling techniques effectively when presenting marketing and social research reports in the context of the public opinion and focus group research conducted in Mongolia by MMCG Company.
