description: Automatic text summarization has been studied in a variety of domains and languages. However, this does not hold for the Russian language. To overcome this issue, we present Gazeta, the first dataset for summarization of Russian news. We describe the properties of this dataset and benchmark several extractive and abstractive models. We demonstrate that the dataset is a valid task for methods of text summarization for Russian. Additionally, we prove the pretrained mBART model to be useful for Russian text summarization.

description: The (2+1) dimensional gauged O(3) nonlinear sigma model with Chern-Simons term is canonically quantized. Furthermore, we study a nonminimal coupling in this model implemented by means of a Pauli-type term. It is shown that the set of constraints of the model is modified by the introduction of the Pauli coupling. Moreover, we found that the quantum commutator relations in the nominimal case is independent of the Chern-Simons coefficient, in contrast to the minimal one.

description: Given the recent steadily declining consumption of school milk in Germany, a research project was set up by the German Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection, in affiliation with other institutions, to retrieve quantifiable information on the different influencing factors and to provide approaches for improving the school milk demand. Main objectives are to evaluate impacts of factors like price, attitudes and habits (especially consumption habits), social background, gender, economic situation, knowledge, product range and distribution form, as well as of nutritional education measures. Primary schools in North Rhine Westphalia were selected by stratified random sampling. Price impacts are derived by an experiment in which the price of school milk was reduced stepwise during the school year 2008/09, and increased over the school year 2009/10, while quantities of demand were reported regularly – either for individuals or on class level - for the selected schools. Almost all other information/data is captured by questionnaires given to pupils, parents, class teachers, school principals, school milk managers, and delivery firms. Preliminary results of a multilevel analysis based on a subset of already available data indicate that the demand on the class level is influenced by girls’ share, migrants’ share, class year, class size, attitude of school principal, municipal size, and last but not least the price.

The distances to Galactic low-mass X-ray binaries: consequences for black hole luminosities and kicks
Creators: name: Jonker, P. G.
name: Nelemans, G.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigated the reported distances of Galactic black hole (BH) and neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). Comparing the distances derived for the neutron stars CygX-2 and XTE J2123-058 using the observed Eddington limited photospheric radius expansion bursts with the distances derived using the observed radius and effective temperature of the companion star we find that the latter are smaller by approximately a factor of 1.5-2. The latter method is often employed to determine the distance to BH LMXBs. A possible explanation for this discrepancy is that the stellar absorption lines in fast rotating companion stars are different from those in the slowly rotating template stars as was found before for early type stars. This could lead to a systematic mis-classification of the spectral type of the companion star, which in turn would yield a systematic error in the distance. We find that, using new distances for XTE J1550-564 and V404 Cyg, the maximum outburst luminosity for at least 5 but perhaps even 7 of the 15 BH soft X-ray transients exceeds the Eddington luminosity for a 10 M_sun BH showing that these systems would be classified as ultra-luminous X-ray sources had we observed them in other Galaxies. This renders support for the idea that many ultra-luminous X-ray sources are stellar-mass rather than intermediate-mass BHs. We find that the rms value of the distance to the Galactic plane for BHs is consistent with that of neutron star LMXBs. This suggests that BHs could also receive a kick-velocity during their formation although this has to be investigated in more detail. (Abridged).

description: In a recent Letter, Luo et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 256602 (2004)) analyze the Fano line shapes obtained from scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) of transition metal impurities on a simple metal surface, in particular of the Ti/Au(111) and Ti/Ag(100) systems. As the key point of their analysis, they claim that there is not only a Fano interference effect between the impurity d-orbital and the conduction electron continuum, as derived in Ujsaghy et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 2557 (2000)), but that the Kondo resonance in the d-electron spectral density has by itself a second Fano line shape, leading to the experimentally observed spectra. In the present note we point out that this analysis is conceptually incorrect. Therefore, the quantitative agreement of the fitted theoretical spectra with the experimental results is meaningless.

description: In many countries, consumption of fruits and vegetables (F&V) is below recommended levels. We quantify the economic and health effects of F&V stamp policy designed for low income consumers. The analysis combined two models: an economic model which predicts how F&V consumption is affected by a change in policy and a health model which evaluates the impact of a change in F&V consumption in terms of death avoided (DA) and life-years saved (LYS). Finally we computed the costs per DA and LYS as the ratio between the taxpayer cost of the policy and the number of DA and LYS. The main findings of the present study are: (1) F&V stamp policy has a positive and significant impact on the consumption of small F&V consumers of the targeted population, (2) at the aggregate level, this policy has a modest impact on consumption and as a result on health gains, (3) for a given budget allocated to the policy, the cost per DA or LYS decreases when the targeting is smaller, at least as long as consumption remains in plausible values, (4) the policy reduces the health inequalities between low and high income populations, (5) when well designed, F&V stamp policy is as cost-effective as price policy (about 42 k€/LYS).

Does Limited Access at School Result in Compensation at Home? The Effect of Soft Drink Bans in Schools on Purchase Patterns Outside of Schools

description: This paper investigates the effects of banning soft drinks in schools on purchases outside of school. We utilize unique household-level and store-level data sources in combination with time-series and cross-sectional variation of state-level regulations in a difference-in-differences (DD) approach. We detect a decrease in the overall trend in sales, but observe this downward trend in households with and without children, as well as in states with and without regulation. Controlling for advertising allows us to further reject that leading brands intensify their advertising efforts and target children to potentially offset their reduced presence at schools. Finally, we find no evidence of substitution effects among possible beverage product alternatives. Our analysis therefore suggests that soft drink bans at school reduce overall soft drink consumption as school age children do not compensate for this limited availability at home.

description: The health implications and costs associated with increasing levels of obesity are a widespread global issue. In the United States, there is a growing interest in identifying methods to reduce obesity levels. Particular focus has been given to advertisements for unhealthy foods, especially advertisements directed at young children as a number of studies conclude that advertising influences the perceptions, requests and short-term consumption behavior of young children. Recently, several of the largest global food producers began voluntary selfregulation of their advertisements to children under the age of 12. The group of participants includes the two largest carbonated soft drink (CSD) manufacturers. We estimate the demand for CSDs in the US over 15 markets using a large, detailed household level data set. We test to see if the advertising restriction had any immediate impact on CSD purchases. Contrary to expectations, we find that purchases increase for several of the CSD brands. This can be explained to some extent by a reduction in prices, however there are likely marketing factors not observed in our analysis that impact purchases as well. While these advertising restrictions do not appear to reduce purchases, there may be other long term benefits associated with reducing children’s exposure to advertising to unhealthy food products.

description: Using three years of Nielson Homescan and advertising data from 16 major metropolitan areas across the U.S. to construct a panel data set that follows weekly consumer purchasing behavior, this paper investigates the impact of marketing activities on a representative cross-section of U.S. consumers. Because many consumers do not participate in the market week-in and week-out, I apply Heckman’s econometric selection model to recover the impact of pricing, advertising, and promotion on a wide range of consumer segments. Reduced-form estimates of consumer responsiveness to these marketing activities reveal different effects across consumer segments, which have numerous implications for marketing policy.
Finite element modeling of ballscrew feed drive systems for control purposes
Creators: name: Okwudire, Chinedum
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis details a scheme, based on finite element methods, for modeling of the ballscrew drives of Cartesian-configured machine tools. Using this scheme, the structural dynamics of the ballscrew mechanism can be incorporated into the feed drive model, and thereby considered during high-bandwidth controller design, and interactive simulation of feed drive-controller performance in the virtual environment. The finite element method used in this thesis for modeling is a hybrid kind, whereby the more rigid components of the feed drive are modeled as lumped-parameter rigid bodies, while the flexible members, like the ballscrew, are modeled using distributed-parameter structural members. As a result, a feed drive model is developed which both maintains a reasonably low level of complexity while adequately capturing the relevant dynamics needed for controller design and simulation. This scheme also pays close attention to the modeling of the screw-nut interface, because it plays an important role in the functioning of ballscrew drives. Two methods are proposed for deriving the stiffness matrix of this interface - the Rigid Ballscrew Method and the Shape Function Method. The former method is shown to capture interesting dynamics of the interface, while the latter is derived in anticipation of situations where the former may not perform satisfactorily. In order to show the benefits of this modeling scheme, three high-bandwidth controllers are designed. The first controller is designed based on the traditional technique which considers only the rigid-body dynamics of the drive. On the other hand, the second and third controllers are designed considering the rigid-body and structural dynamics information obtained from the proposed modeling scheme. Analyses performed on the three controllers reveal that the two controllers designed based on the proposed scheme outperform that which is designed following the traditional technique. Finally, a simulation strategy is designed which allows the feed drive model, together with its non-linear dynamics to be combined with the controller dynamics and other dynamics of the feed drive system. In order to reduce simulation time, a novel method of performing model reduction based on a Component Mode Synthesis technique combined with Modal Acceleration recovery is described. This method is used to achieve an efficient reduction without compromising relevant dynamic properties of the full model. The potentials of the scheme presented in this thesis are demonstrated partly by experiments conducted on a test bed, and in other cases, by simulations performed on a model generated from the test bed.

The walk is subject to stochastic resetting, meaning that after each step the evolution is restarted with fixed probability $r$. We consider a resetting protocol that is an intermediate situation between a random walk ($r=0$) and an uncorrelated sequence of jumps all starting from the origin ($r=1$), and derive a general condition for determining when restarting the process with $0

description: Background: (The purpose of this article is an invitation to reflect on the gender identity constitution and gender ideology. Unlike traditional approaches, the authors of this book are somewhat provocative, as they invite readers to think about the theme outside the subjectivity paradigm. Thus, the enterprise is at first a challenge, as they are new approaches that raise debates on the themes presented here. The paradigm of intersubjectivity is anchored in the communicative reason that assumes language as a constitutive element of a discourse that intends to reconstruct broken pretensions.Materials and Methods: The research used in the production of this text was bibliographic. According to Köche (2015, p, 122) “In bibliographic research, the researcher will raise the available knowledge in the area, identifying the theories produced by analyzing them and evaluating their contribution to help understand or explain the problem that is the object of the investigation”. Therefore, part of the appropriation of concepts and concepts in the literature. Specifically, Habermas (1982, 2000; 2001; 2002) and Santana (2018).Results:The gender identity constitution in a way is a pretension of the subjects that need to be reconstituted from the communicative praxis. Theauthors in their texts point out that an identity constitution in the subjective paradigm is no longer possible, devoid of a discourse aimed at the consensual reconstitution in the original community. The possible way forward presented in his texts is from the intersubjective paradigm. Therefore, there are no pure individuals in identity relationships, every identity constitution presupposes that it is permeated by collective experiences and mediated by language.Conclusion:The constitution of identity depends to some extent on the contrast of otherness and at the same time, it is also dependent on the recognition of the community. In this way, the identity has a reach to transcendentality, it does not exhaust itself. It translates to an identity universality. In the constitution of identity, individuals use language as a direct access to conditions of truth, without going through interpretation first (HABERMAS, 2001). Therefore, we must take into account the conditions under which individuals take possession of the truth, and their interpretive prepositions in the process of constituting their identity. For, such appropriations can be ideological or distort reality.

From observational point of view, these time variations are taken in the form $\frac{\dot{G}}{G}\sim H$ and $Λ\sim H^{2}$. The behavior of scale factors and different kinematical parameters are investigated for different possible scenarios where the bulk cosmological constant $Λ_{5}$ can be zero, positive or negative.

description: The aim of this contribution is to examine how the French and the German positions on agricultural policy have developed since the foundation of the EEC and what the driving forces were behind. The “general consensus” underlying the EEC treaty, and according to which the common market would be “conquered” by France in the case of the classical agricultural products, could not be translated into practice; for what emerged for these products was not a customs union but a “price support union”. As a consequence French intra-community agricultural exports had to be redirected to the world market. Thus initial positive French income transfers via intracommunity trade were transformed into transfers from the EC budget, an evolution that can be interpreted as a “modification of the general consensus”. However, this was not to last long either since the policy of price support, plus the unlimited obligation for the state to purchase any production surpluses, were bound to cause increasing budget costs and an aggravation of international trade conflicts. The fact that in the ensuing discussions on the CAP France favored price cuts while the Federal Republic pleaded for quantitative restrictions, is explained with the help of a partial analysis model. Moreover, the article also explains further divergences between the French and the German agricultural policy positions. In so doing, account is also taken of (a) the modifications of the German positions after reunification and (b) the new accents that have appeared in French agricultural policy after the change in government in 1997.

description: A novel method for autonomous localization of multiple sources of gamma radiation using a group of Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) is presented in this paper. The method utilizes an extremely lightweight (44 g) Compton camera MiniPIX TPX3. The compact size of the detector allows for deployment onboard safe and agile small-scale Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The proposed radiation mapping approach fuses measurements from multiple distributed Compton camera sensors to accurately estimate the positions of multiple radioactive sources in real time. Unlike commonly used intensity-based detectors, the Compton camera reconstructs the set of possible directions towards a radiation source from just a single ionizing particle. Therefore, the proposed approach can localize radiation sources without having to estimate the gradient of a radiation field or contour lines, which require longer measurements. The instant estimation is able to fully exploit the potential of highly mobile MAVs. The radiation mapping method is combined with an active search strategy, which coordinates the future actions of the MAVs in order to improve the quality of the estimate of the sources' positions, as well as to explore the area of interest faster. The proposed solution is evaluated in simulation and real world experiments with multiple Cesium-137 radiation sources.

Submillimeter Observations of Titan: Global Measures of Stratospheric Temperature, CO, HCN, HC3N, and the Isotopic Ratios 12C/13C and 14N/15N

description: Interferometric observations of the atmosphere of Titan were performed with the Submillimeter Array on two nights in February 2004 to investigate the global average vertical distributions of several molecular species above the tropopause. Rotational transitions of CO, isomers of HCN, and HC3N were simultaneously recorded. The abundance of CO is determined to be 51+/-4 ppm, constant with altitude. The vertical profile of HCN is dependent upon the assumed temperature but generally increases from 30 ppb at the condensation altitude (~83 km) to 5 ppm at ~300 km. Further, the central core of the HCN emission is strong and can be reproduced only if the upper stratospheric temperature increases with altitude. The isotopic ratios are determined to be 12C/13C=132+/-25 and 14N/15N=94+/-13 assuming the Coustenis & Bezard (1995) temperature profile. If the Lellouch (1990) temperature profile is assumed the ratios decrease to 12C/13C=108+/-20 and 14N/15N=72+/-9. The vertical profile of HC3N is consistent with that derived by Marten et al. (2002).

On the evolution of star forming galaxies

description: The evolution in the comoving space density of the global average galaxy star formation rate (SFR) out to a redshift around unity is well established. Beyond z~1 there is growing evidence that this evolution is flat or even increasing, contrary to early indications of a turnover. Some recent analyses of z~6 photometric dropouts are suggestive of a decline from z=3 to z~6, but there is still very little constraint on the extent of dust obscuration at such high redshifts. In less than a decade, numerous measurements of galaxy SFR density spanning z=0 to as high as z~6 have rapidly broadened our understanding of galaxy evolution, and a summary of existing SFR density measurements is presented here. This global star formation history compilation is found to be consistent to within factors of about three over essentially the entire range $0

Computational analysis of aerated stabilization basins
Creators: name: Toma, Richard David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Simulations of aerated waste lagoons were done using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques and the results were compared with experimental data. A computational model simulated the flow through a previously constructed model aerator and basin. A two-phase, axisymmetric simulation was developed specifically for computing the flow through the geometry of the experimental aerator. A velocity profile was computed at the exit of the aerator and applied to an assumed distribution of droplet diameters. A discrete phase, Lagrangian particle tracking model was then used with the assumed particle distribution, while computing the interactions between the droplets and the surrounding air. The results of the Lagrangian simulation provided an appropriate mass and momentum flux distribution induced by the aerator which could then be applied to a single phase lagoon simulation. A velocity distribution was calculated for the model basin with the same flow rates as in the previous experiments. Using the calculated velocity distribution, it was possible to do tracer studies and compute a residence time distribution for the aerated basin model with an unsteady, species transport model. Reasonable agreement between the simulation and experiments was found. Having validated a method of reproducing the hydrodynamic effects of the experimental aerator, simulations were also carried out on a geometry representative of a 75 horsepower aerator. A parametric study was performed where the volume and the inlet positions of the lagoon where varied. The effects of varying lagoon volume on the residence time distribution were also investigated.

description: Students in a traditional agriculture class were surveyed to learn their perceptions of digital learning objects created by the instructor to improve student problem solving ability. Student assignments and exam scores were compared. The students enrolled in the course with digital learning objects scored higher on exams than a similar section which did not include digital learning objects. However, student performance was mixed with regard to assignment and exam scores for the students who used the digital learning objects.

Surface phase transitions and crystal growth rates of ice in the atmosphere

description: With climate modeling predicting a raise of at least 2 C by year 2100, the fate of ice has become a serious concern, but we still do not understand how ice grows (or melts). In the atmosphere, crystal growth rates of basal and prismatic facets exhibit an enigmatic temperature dependence, and crossover up to three times in a range between 0 and -40 C. Here we use large scale computer simulations to characterize the ice surface and identify a sequence of novel phase transitions on the main facets of ice crystallites. Unexpectedly, we find that as temperature is increased, the crystal surface transforms from a disordered phase with proliferation of steps, to a smooth phase with small step density. This causes the anomalous increase of step free energies and provides the long sought explanation for the enigmatic crossover of snow crystal growth rates found in the atmosphere.

description: Gradient-based interpretations often require an anchor point of comparison to avoid saturation in computing feature importance. We show that current baselines defined using static functions--constant mapping, averaging or blurring--inject harmful colour, texture or frequency assumptions that deviate from model behaviour. This leads to accumulation of irregular gradients, resulting in attribution maps that are biased, fragile and manipulable. Departing from the static approach, we propose UNI to compute an (un)learnable, debiased and adaptive baseline by perturbing the input towards an unlearning direction of steepest ascent. Our method discovers reliable baselines and succeeds in erasing salient features, which in turn locally smooths the high-curvature decision boundaries. Our analyses point to unlearning as a promising avenue for generating faithful, efficient and robust interpretations.

description: For the first time, demonstrated is the active-mode CAOS (i.e., Coded Access Optical Sensor) camera. The design demonstrated uses a hybrid approach to both optical device engagement and time-frequency CAOS mode operations. Specifically, time-frequency modulation of both the target illumination light source and the Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) combine to deliver the Frequency Modulation (FM)-Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) mode of the CAOS camera. Using a 39.6 Klux white light 32 KHz FM LED source combined with a 1 KHz bit rate 4096 bits Walsh sequence CDMA code via the DMD, achieved is 58 x 70 CAOS pixels near 60 dB linear Dynamic Range (DR) imaging of a 36 patch calibrated high DR white light target. Applications for the active-mode CAOS camera are numerous and includes indoor full spectrum food inspection where a linear DR camera can play an important role for accurate measurements.

The mechanical response of a Co11.3Cr20.4Fe22.6Mn21.8Ni23.9 (wt%) high entropy alloy with a segmented coarse grain structure is investigated using strain-rate-dependent uniaxial compression experiments. The composition is verified using ab-initio simulations by examining thermal stability through the reduction of Gibbs free energy relative to similar equi-molar alloys. The segmented grain structure, combining high-angle coarse-grains with low-angle sub-grains, provides good hardness (~3 GPa) and strain-hardening (2600 MPa/). Yield strength shows strain-rate-dependent behavior with high strain-rate sensitivity. Here, the macroscopic deformation is correlated with the microscopic plastic failure mechanisms, facilitated by advanced in situ visualization and analysis. Results reveal that the formation of deformation bands occur before yield, while the interactions between microscopic plastic deformation mechanisms and the low-angle sub-grain boundaries significantly affect the apparent surface deformation features and mechanical properties.

description: The paper presents a political economy analysis of the present and future CAP reform induced under different policy scenarios regarding future EU enlargement and future WTO agreements. Theoretically, the analysis is based on a political exchange model suggested by HENNING (2000). Main results are: (i) Both present and future CAP reforms are significantly biased by the political influence of farmers' lobby. (ii) In quantitative terms an EU enlargement would induce a much stronger shift in the future CAP when compared to increased WTO restrictions. (iii) The timing of the reform is important, given the fact that induced CAP reforms would be supported by a qualified majority within the EU-15, but within the EU-25 these reforms would be defeated by coalition of the new Eastern European member states using their common veto-power. (iv) The majority of political actors within the EU-15 including both politicians and interest groups evaluate induced CAP reforms negatively in comparison to the status quo, while from society’s perspective these imply a positive shift of total economic welfare within EU-15.
One-loop Massive Scattering Amplitudes and Ward Identities in String Theory

description: We calculate bosonic open string one-loop massive scattering amplitudes for some low-lying string states. By using the periodicity relations of Jacobi theta functions, we explicitly prove an infinite number of one-loop type I stringy Ward identities derived from type I zero-norm states in the old covariant first quantized (OCFQ) spectrum of open bosonic string. The subtlety in the proofs of one-loop type II stringy Ward identities is discussed by comparing with those of string-tree cases. High-energy limit of these stringy Ward identities can be used to fix the proportionality constants between one-loop massive high-energy scattering amplitudes of different string states with the same momenta. These proportionality constants can not be calculated directly from sample calculations as we did previously in the cases of string-tree scattering amplitudes.
