description: Satisfying hunger and thirst is a basic right of every human. The economic access to food is one of the four necessary conditions to provide food security of countries and their citizens. Data from FAO, European Parliament or statistics from Eurostat show that the problem of economic access to food concerns countries of the European Union as well. The aim of the paper is to present the magnitude of the problem of economic access to food in the EU countries. The conducted research proves that the described problem cannot be underestimated. The food expenditure still constitutes to be one of the main groups of households’ expenditures, for instance in countries like Romania or Lithuania, where it exceeds 20% of overall expenditure. More than half of the citizens of the EU struggle to cover the expenditure with earned income. The situation is even harder because of the uneven distribution of malnutrition in particular countries. / Synopsis. Zaspokojenie głodu i pragnienia jest podstawowym prawem przysługującym każdemu człowiekowi. Ekonomiczna dostępność żywności stanowi jeden z czterech koniecznych warunków do zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego państw i ich obywateli. Dane FAO, Parlamentu Europejskiego czy statystyki Eurostatu pokazują, że problem ekonomicznej dostępności żywności dotyczy również państw UE. Celem prezentowanego artykułu jest ukazanie wielkości problemu ekonomicznej dostępności żywności w państwach Wspólnoty. Przeprowadzone badania dowodzą, że opisywany problem nie może być lekceważony. Wydatki na żywność stanowią wciąż jedną z głównych grup wydatków gospodarstw domowych, w państwach takich jak Rumunia czy Litwa przekraczając 20% ogółu ponoszonych wydatków. Ponad połowa obywateli UE boryka się z trudnościami związanymi z pokryciem wydatków osiąganymi dochodami. Sytuację utrudnia także nierównomierny rozkład niedożywienia występujący w poszczególnych państwach.

description: An intensive competition in the sector of food processing industry sets forth the requirement of improving the processes of operating in the market. One of them is cooperation with the entities rendering business services. The aim of the paper is to analyse the level of making use of business services by the enterprises operating in the food processing industry as well as to assess the cooperation between the companies rendering such services. The authors used for this purpose the results of quantitative research carried out among the enterprises operating in the polish market. In result of thereof they have ascertained that, in general, along with the growth of the size of an enterprise there grows the scale of the use of business services, and it must be said that greater propensity to use business services is displayed by the enterprises with the share of foreign capital. At the same time, the assessment of cooperation with the companies rendering business services is not determined either by the size of an enterprise or by the share of foreign capital.

description: The aim of the paper was to assess the US comparative advantages in the export of selected plant raw materials to the Single European Market (SEM) against the major EU producers and exporters of analysed product groups in 2003-2017. The research is based on the data from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) resources. The following indicators were used in the comparative advantage analysis: the Revealed Comparative Advantage Indexes (XRCA, MRCA, RTA), the Coverage Ratio (CR), the Specialization Indicator (SI), Intra-Industry Trade Index (IIT) and the export shares. It was proved that the US had strong comparative advantages in the export of fruits and nuts, as well as oil seeds and oleaginous fruits to the SEM. These product groups gave the US almost 25% and more than 15% of the total revenue from the export of agri-food products to the EU countries, respectively. / Synopsis. Celem artykułu było zidentyfikowanie przewag komparatywnych USA w eksporcie wybranych surowców roślinnych na Jednolity Rynek Europejski (JRE) na tle największych unijnych producentów i eksporterów analizowanych grup produktów w latach 2003-2017. W badaniach wykorzystano dane pochodzące z zasobów Konferencji Narodów Zjednoczonych ds. Handlu i Rozwoju (UNCTAD). W analizie przewag komparatywnych zastosowano wybrane wskaźniki ujawnionych przewag komparatywnych (XRCA, MRCA, RTA), wskaźnik pokrycia importu eksportem (CR), wskaźnik specjalizacji eksportowej (SI) indeks handlu wewnątrzgałęziowego Grubela-Lloyda (IIT) oraz udziały w eksporcie. Na podstawie przeprowadzonych analiz można stwierdzić, że USA generowały wysokie przewagi komparatywne w eksporcie na JRE owoców i orzechów oraz surowców oleistych, które zapewniały im znaczącą, odpowiednio prawie 25-procentową i ponad 15-procentową część ogółu przychodów z tytułu eksportu artykułów rolno-żywnościowych do państw UE.

description: Unbiased confidence estimates of neural networks are crucial especially for safety-critical applications. Many methods have been developed to calibrate biased confidence estimates. Though there is a variety of methods for classification, the field of object detection has not been addressed yet. Therefore, we present a novel framework to measure and calibrate biased (or miscalibrated) confidence estimates of object detection methods. The main difference to related work in the field of classifier calibration is that we also use additional information of the regression output of an object detector for calibration. Our approach allows, for the first time, to obtain calibrated confidence estimates with respect to image location and box scale. In addition, we propose a new measure to evaluate miscalibration of object detectors. Finally, we show that our developed methods outperform state-of-the-art calibration models for the task of object detection and provides reliable confidence estimates across different locations and scales.

description: This paper seeks to distinguish between the principles upon which testing of statistical hypotheses may be based and the practical methods which these principles generate. Seber's (1964) conclusion, that the Wald, Lagrange Multiplier and Likelihood Ratio Principles all lead to exactly the same test statistic in the case of a linear hypothesis, is then re-examined and put on a proper mathematical footing. Simple relations between the test statistics and their distributions are also outlined.

description: We investigated two-dimensional brittle fragmentation with a flat impact experimentally, focusing on the low impact energy region near the fragmentation-critical point. We found that the universality class of fragmentation transition disagreed with that of percolation. However, the weighted mean mass of the fragments could be scaled using the pseudo-control parameter multiplicity. The data for highly fragmented samples included a cumulative fragment mass distribution that clearly obeyed a power-law. The exponent of this power-law was 0.5 and it was independent of sample size. The fragment mass distributions in this regime seemed to collapse into a unified scaling function using weighted mean fragment mass scaling. We also examined the behavior of higher order moments of the fragment mass distributions, and obtained multi-scaling exponents that agreed with those of the simple biased cascade model.

description: This work presents the development of a flexible microscopic chemical imaging platform for cultural heritage that utilizes wavelength-tunable oblique illumination from a point source to obtain per-pixel reflectance spectra in the VIS-NIR range. The microscope light source can be adjusted on two axes allowing for a hemisphere of possible illumination directions. The synthesis of multiple illumination angles allows for the calculation of surface normal vectors, similar to phase gradients, and axial optical sectioning. The extraction of spectral reflectance images with high spatial resolutions from these data is demonstrated through the analysis of a replica cross-section, created from known painting reference materials, as well as a sample extracted from a painting by Pablo Picasso entitled La Miséreuse accroupie (1902). These case studies show the rich microscale molecular information that may be obtained using this microscope and how the instrument overcomes challenges for spectral analysis commonly encountered on works of art with complex matrices composed of both inorganic minerals and organic lakes.

description: We consider sparticle contributions to time dependent CP asymmetry in B -> phi K_S. As for the gluino-squark loop, LR or RL insertion is more likely to give recently observed S_{phi K} < 0 than LL or RR insertion. Neutral Higgs contribution does not change S_{phi K} very much due to the strong constraint from B_s -> mu^+ mu^-. We also show correlations among related processes such as direct CP asymmetry in B -> X_s gamma and B_s - B_s bar mixing, and discuss theoretical motivations for desired strength of flavor violation.

description: In general, biometry-based control systems may not rely on individual expected behavior or cooperation to operate appropriately. Instead, such systems should be aware of malicious procedures for unauthorized access attempts. Some works available in the literature suggest addressing the problem through gait recognition approaches. Such methods aim at identifying human beings through intrinsic perceptible features, despite dressed clothes or accessories. Although the issue denotes a relatively long-time challenge, most of the techniques developed to handle the problem present several drawbacks related to feature extraction and low classification rates, among other issues. However, deep learning-based approaches recently emerged as a robust set of tools to deal with virtually any image and computer-vision related problem, providing paramount results for gait recognition as well. Therefore, this work provides a surveyed compilation of recent works regarding biometric detection through gait recognition with a focus on deep learning approaches, emphasizing their benefits, and exposing their weaknesses. Besides, it also presents categorized and characterized descriptions of the datasets, approaches, and architectures employed to tackle associated constraints.

description: We report circular polarization measurements from the first two years of observation with the 40 GHz polarimeter of the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor (CLASS). CLASS is conducting a multi-frequency survey covering 75% of the sky from the Atacama Desert designed to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) linear E and B polarization on angular scales $1^\circ \lesssim θ\leq 90^\circ$, corresponding to a multipole range of $2 \leq \ell \lesssim 200$. The modulation technology enabling measurements of linear polarization at the largest angular scales from the ground, the Variable-delay Polarization Modulator, is uniquely designed to provide explicit sensitivity to circular polarization (Stokes $V$). We present a first detection of circularly polarized atmospheric emission at 40 GHz that is well described by a dipole with an amplitude of $124\pm4\,\mathrm{μK}$ when observed at an elevation of $45^\circ$, and discuss its potential impact as a foreground to CMB experiments. Filtering the atmospheric component, CLASS places a 95% C.L. upper limit of $0.4\,\mathrm{μK}^2$ to $13.5\,\mathrm{μK}^2$ on $\ell(\ell+1)C_\ell^{VV}/(2π)$ between $1 \leq \ell \leq 120$, representing a two-orders-of-magnitude improvement over previous limits.

Nonpolynomial Normal Modes of the Renormalization Group in the Presence of a Constant Vector Potential Background

description: We examine the renormalization group flow in the vicinity of the free-field fixed point for effective field theories in the presence of a constant, nondynamical vector potential background. The interaction with this vector potential represents the simplest possible form of Lorentz violation. We search for any normal modes of the flow involving nonpolynomial interactions. For scalar fields, the inclusion of the vector potential modifies the known modes only through a change in the field strength renormalization. For fermionic theories, where an infinite number of particle species are required in order for nonpolynomial interactions to be possible, we find no evidence for any analogous relevant modes. These results are consistent with the idea that the vector potential interaction, which may be eliminated from the action by a gauge transformation, should have no physical effects.

description: WASP-103b is the exoplanet with the highest expected deformation signature in its transit light curve and one of the shortest expected spiral-in times. Measuring the tidal deformation of the planet would allow us to estimate the second degree fluid Love number and gain insight into the planet's internal structure. Moreover, measuring the tidal decay timescale would allow us to estimate the stellar tidal quality factor, which is key to constraining stellar physics. We obtained 12 transit light curves of WASP-103b with the CHEOPS to estimate the tidal deformation and tidal decay of this extreme system. We modelled the high-precision CHEOPS transit light curves together with systematic instrumental noise using multi-dimensional Gaussian process regression informed by a set of instrumental parameters. To model the tidal deformation, we used a parametrisation model which allowed us to determine the second degree fluid Love number of the planet. We combined our light curves with previously observed transits of WASP-103b with HST and Spitzer. We estimate the radial Love number of WASP-103b to be $h_f = 1.59^{+0.45}_{-0.53}$. This is the first time that the tidal deformation is directly detected (at $3\, \sigma$) from the transit light curve of an exoplanet. Combining the transit times derived from CHEOPS, with the other transit times available in the literature, we find no significant orbital period variation for WASP-103b. However, the data show a hint of an orbital period increase instead of a decrease, as is expected for tidal decay. This could be either due to a visual companion star if this star is bound, the Applegate effect, or a statistical artefact. The estimated Love number of WASP-103b is similar to Jupiter's. This will allow us to constrain the internal structure and composition of WASP-103b, which could provide clues on the inflation of hot Jupiters. (Abridged)

description: Several procedures are proposed for testing the specification of an econometric model in the presence of one or more other models which purport to explain the same phenomenon. These procedures are shown to be closely related, but not identical, to the non-nested hypothesis tests recently proposed by Pesaran and Deaton [7], and to have similar asymptotic properties.. They are remarkably simple both conceptually and computationally, and, unlike earlier techniques, they may be used to test against several alternative models simultaneously. Some empirical results are presented which suggest that the ability of the tests to reject false hypotheses is likely to be rather good in practice.

Estimating the nonstructural component of the helioseismic surface term using hydrodynamic simulations

description: As the amount of asteroseismic data available continues to grow, the inability to accurately model observed oscillation frequencies is becoming a critical problem for interpreting these frequencies. A major component of this problem is the modeling of the near-surface layers. Our aim is to develop a method to estimate the effect of the near-surface layers on oscillation frequencies. In the proposed method we numerically estimate eigenfunctions in 3D hydrodynamic simulations. We match those to the eigenfunctions calculated from the classic equations applied to the horizontal averages of the structure variables. We use this procedure to calculate the frequency perturbation resulting from the dynamical part of the interaction of the oscillations with near-surface convection. As the last step we scale the numbers to the Sun. To provide a qualitative test of our method we performed a series of simulations, calculated the perturbations using our procedure, and compared them to previously reported residuals relative to solar models. We find that we can largely reproduce the observed frequency residuals without resorting to poorly justified theoretical models. We find that, while the calculations of Houdek et al. (2017, MNRAS, 464, L124) produce similar frequency perturbations, the density-pressure phase differences computed here do not match those of that work.

Domestic Monopoly as a Domestic Distortion

Subjects: Financial Economics

description: Trade theorists have recognized for at least thirty years that domestic monopoly may cause a "domestic price distortion" with the result that a country's foreign trade is not optimized under laisser—faire conditions. Surprisingly, no one appears to have investigated the question as to how the monopolistic distortion could persist under conditions of free trade. Within the framework of conventional trade theory the case of a domestic monopoly is an empty box, as the alleged distortion disappears without intervention when free trade exists. The distortion can, however, be resurrected by assuming either a less than perfectly elastic supply of imports or imperfect substitutability between domestic and imported products. The distortion is likely to be important during periods of underutilized capacity when import-competing producers refuse to cut domestic prices to the level of short-run marginal cost. The theoretical argument has several important implications for trade policy in the post-Tokyo-Round era.

description: The usual approach to intra-industry trade is to assume that such trade arises because slightly different commodities are produced and traded to satisfy consumers' tastes for variety. In this paper it is shown that there are reasons to expect two-way trade even in identical products, due to strategic interaction among firms.

description: A general equilibrium model is developed of the consequences for a trading economy ofichangas in the tariffs imposed on flows of goods between it and its trading partners. Expressions are given for the adjustments in exchange rates and wage rates needed to restore internal and external balance following changes in the tariff structure. It is suggested that the neoclassical 'law-of-one-price' does not hold in the international markets for manufactured goods. In its place is put a model of market behaviour when goods are generally heterogeneous. This model is consistent with the phenomenon of .'intra-industry trade', as well as with other empirical findings about the pricing and output behaviour of firms. The model is implemented with data on the Quebec economy in 1974. Various changes in Quebec's trading relations with the rest of Canada and with other countries, such as those which might follow should Quebec become an independent country, are examined.

Diffuse Galactic continuum gamma rays. A model compatible with EGRET data and cosmic-ray measurements

description: We present a study of the compatibility of some current models of the diffuse Galactic continuum gamma rays with EGRET data. A set of regions sampling the whole sky is chosen to provide a comprehensive range of tests. The range of EGRET data used is extended to 100 GeV. The models are computed with our GALPROP cosmic-ray propagation and gamma-ray production code. We confirm that the "conventional model" based on the locally observed electron and nucleon spectra is inadequate, for all sky regions. A conventional model plus hard sources in the inner Galaxy is also inadequate, since this cannot explain the GeV excess away from the Galactic plane. Models with a hard electron injection spectrum are inconsistent with the local spectrum even considering the expected fluctuations; they are also inconsistent with the EGRET data above 10 GeV. We present a new model which fits the spectrum in all sky regions adequately. Secondary antiproton data were used to fix the Galactic average proton spectrum, while the electron spectrum is adjusted using the spectrum of diffuse emission itself. The derived electron and proton spectra are compatible with those measured locally considering fluctuations due to energy losses, propagation, or possibly details of Galactic structure. This model requires a much less dramatic variation in the electron spectrum than models with a hard electron injection spectrum, and moreover it fits the gamma-ray spectrum better and to the highest EGRET energies. It gives a good representation of the latitude distribution of the gamma-ray emission from the plane to the poles, and of the longitude distribution. We show that secondary positrons and electrons make an essential contribution to Galactic diffuse gamma-ray emission.

Molecular Hydrogen in the Ionized Region of Planetary Nebulae

description: This paper presents an analysis of the concentration of the hydrogen molecule inside the ionized region of planetary nebulae. The equations corresponding to the ionization and chemical equilibria of H, H+, H-, H2, H2+, and H3+ are coupled with the equations of ionization and thermal balance for a photoionized atomic gas. Forty different reactions related to the formation or the destruction of these species are included. The presence of dust is taken into account, since grains act as catalysts for the production of H2, as well as shield the molecules against the stellar ionizing radiation. We analyze the effect of the stellar ionizing continuum, as well as of the gas and grain properties on the calculated H2 mass. It is shown that a significant concentration of H2 can survive inside the ionized region of planetary nebulae, mostly in the inner region of the recombination zone. The total H2 to total hydrogen mass ratio inside the ionized region increases with the central star temperature, and, depending on the PN physical conditions, it can be of the order of 10^-6 or even higher. The increase of the recombination zone with the stellar temperature can account for such correlation. This can explain why the H2 emission is more frequently observed in bipolar planetary nebulae (Gatley's rule), since this kind of object has typically hotter stars. Applying our results for the planetary nebula NGC 6720, we obtain an H2 to hydrogen mass ratio similar to the value obtained from the observed H2 line emission.

description: In this paper we develop an extremely general procedure for performing a wide variety of model specification tests by running artificial linear regressions and then using conventional significance tests. In particular, this procedure allows us to develop non-nested hypothesis tests for any set of models which attempt to explain the same dependent variable(s), even when the error specifications of the various models are not the same. For example, it is straightforward to test linear regression models against loglinear ones. These procedures are illustrated by an empirical application, in which we estimate and test several competing models of personal savings behavior in Canada.

description: Contract farming in seed production has played a great instrumental role to bring private investment into seed research and production. Poor functioning of institutions hinders the full potential benefits of seed contracts to reach to producers. Seed producers are the most important part of the seed supply chain and thereby the present study attempt to analyze the producer's preference for group contract and its impact on welfare of actors in the seed value chain. We propose two types of group contracts, viz, contract B (company-organizer-seed producers group (SPG)) and C (company-SPG). We carried out an economic experiment using real producers and organizers of the seed contracts, where producers face a choice between an existing contract and either of proposed group contracts. The experiment consists of two treatments, i) concealed and revealed price information and ii) presence and absence of local organizer in producer sessions. We find that preference for contract B is higher than contract C and existing contract. Contract B shows higher price bargaining under the concealed price information compared to revealed treatment. We find group life of 3.78 periods and more than half of the groups (53%) survived throughout the five rounds indicating a very high sustainability.
