description: Social engineering through social media channels targeting organizational employees is emerging as one of the most challenging information security threats. Social engineering defies traditional security efforts due to the method of attack relying on human naiveté or error. The vast amount of information now made available to social engineers through online social networks is facilitating methods of attack which rely on some form of human error to enable infiltration into company networks. While, paramount to organisational information security objectives is the introduction of relevant comprehensive policy and guideline, perspectives and practices vary from global region to region. This paper identifies such regional variations and then presents a detailed investigation on information security outlooks and practices, surrounding social media, in Australian organisations (both public and private). Results detected disparate views and practices, suggesting further work is needed to achieve effective protection against security threats arsing due to social media adoption.

description: We have initiated the first CO interferometer survey of early-type spiral galaxies (S0-Sab). We observed five early-type spiral galaxies with HII nuclei (indicating circumnuclear starburst activities). These observations indicate gas masses for the central kiloparsec of \sim 1-5% of the dynamical masses. Such low gas mass fractions suggest that large-scale gravitational instability in the gas is unlikely to be the driving cause for the starburst activities. The Toomre Q values were >1 (mostly >3) within the central kiloparsec, indicating that the gas disks are globally gravitationally stable. The area filling factor of the gas disks is estimated to be about 0.05. This small value indicates the existence of lumpy structure, i.e. molecular clouds, in the globally-gravitationally stable disks. The typical surface density of the molecular clouds is as high as \sim 3000 Msun pc^{-2}. We reconsider the nature of the Toomre Q criterion, and conclude that the Q derived from CO observations indicates neither star formation nor molecular cloud formation. This argument should be valid not only for the circumnuclear disks but also for any region in galactic disks. We tentatively explore an alternative model, i.e. cloud-cloud collisions, as an initiating mechanism of star formation.

description: People living with HIV on antiretroviral therapy often have undetectable virus levels by standard assays, but "latent" HIV still persists in viral reservoirs. Eliminating these reservoirs is the goal of HIV cure research. The quantitative viral outgrowth assay (QVOA) is commonly used to estimate the reservoir size, i.e., the infectious units per million (IUPM) of HIV-persistent resting CD4+ T cells. A new variation of the QVOA, the Ultra Deep Sequencing Assay of the outgrowth virus (UDSA), was recently developed that further quantifies the number of viral lineages within a subset of infected wells. Performing the UDSA on a subset of wells provides additional information that can improve IUPM estimation. This paper considers statistical inference about the IUPM from combined dilution assay (QVOA) and deep viral sequencing (UDSA) data, even when some deep sequencing data are missing. Methods are proposed to accommodate assays with wells sequenced at multiple dilution levels and with imperfect sensitivity and specificity, and a novel bias-corrected estimator is included for small samples. The proposed methods are evaluated in a simulation study, applied to data from the University of North Carolina HIV Cure Center, and implemented in the open-source R package SLDeepAssay.

A comparison of minority shareholders’ remedies in British Columbia and Bhutan
Creators: name: Tshering, Norbu
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Minority shareholders investing their capital in business corporations face two primary risks. First, the business risk of the undertaking common to all investors, and second, the risk of disagreements within the corporate organization when their situation may be weaker compared to the majority shareholders. The interests of minority shareholders are often been made virtually worthless by the machinations of those in control of the corporation. Minority shareholders can be deprived of any income from the corporation, either in the form of dividends or salary, or they may be excluded from any effective voice in business decisions and denied information about corporate affairs. Often, they can eventually be ousted from the corporation and receive only a fraction of the real value of their interests. Conflicts of interests amongst shareholders constitute a serious threat to the success and survival of the corporation. In the absence of protective mechanisms, control is usually in the hands of the majority shareholders. While remedies do exist in the law (common law) for unexpected problems, contractual mechanisms stipulated at the inception of the corporation and market forces may also reduce the possibility of conflicts of interests arising in the course of carrying on the corporate business. The common law or even detailed mechanisms and prevailing market forces cannot, however, always take care of the wide variety and forms that the suppression of minority interests may assume. The common law is hesitant about interfering with the internal business affairs of the corporation and contractual arrangements may be inadequate due to the inherent inability of the human mind to foresee every future contingency. Market forces may also not always operate unimpeded. Therefore, corporate statutory provisions such as the derivative action, windingup on the just and equitable ground and oppression and appraisal remedies have been introduced to supplement the common law, contractual mechanisms and market forces in the interest of the protection of minority shareholders. The provisions of these statutory remedies enable minority shareholders to either prevent the threat or rectify the abuse of corporate power. However, most of these corporate statutory remedies are surrounded with procedural requirements and other technicalities, which may diminish their utility as productive weapons available to minority shareholders. In this work, I propose to study the needs that gave rise to the various statutory remedies and the adequacy of these remedies made available to minority shareholders in British Columbia companies with particular reference to the responses of the common law, the legislature and the judiciary. Finally, I will study the possibility of borrowing these remedies from the British Columbia Company Act as models for the revision of the Bhutan Company Act which does not presently have such remedies.

title: L' européanisme russe sous le prisme de l’instruction publique dans la Russie des XVIIIe-XIXe siècles
Creators: name: Yastrebtseva, Anastasia
Publisher: name: Savoirs en prisme
Year: 2013

description: Dès les XVIe-XVIIe siècles, la philosophie politique européenne moderne a placé l’État au centre de ses investigations. La question-clef soulevée dans plusieurs ouvrages des philosophes des Temps modernes jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle a été celle de la souveraineté de l’État. Le XVIIIe siècle est devenu un point de repère dans cette tradition philosophique où l’État a été souvent considéré du point de vue de sa divinité providentielle ou du point de vue de la volonté générale qu’il représente. La nouveauté du XVIIIe siècle a consisté dans l’articulation plus précise de l’exigence libérale de la limitation rationnelle du pouvoir de l’État par la liberté individuelle. Il s’agit de mettre l’accent sur le sujet moderne des droits de l’homme, ou des droits naturels. Cette évolution des idées politiques en Europe a beaucoup influencé l’histoire de la Russie qui s’est trouvé depuis le XVIIIe siècle au cours de son européanisation tant au niveau politique qu’au niveau culturel. Dans tous les deux domaines, ce transfert et même expansion des idées et des valeurs européennes en Russie ont amené au grands conflits intérieurs qui se sont montré, d’un côté, dans l’opposition des ambitions impériales de l’État russe et du renforcement du nationalisme au XIXe siècle ; et, d’un autre côté, dans l’opposition de l’universalisme et du nationalisme, comme principe éthique et axiologique, provoquée par les différences culturelles entre l’Europe et la Russie. Dans l’article proposé il est examinée la refléxion des auteurs russes des XVIIIe -XIXe siècles sur la constitution du meilleur régime politique et sur ses fondements, parmi lesquels l’instruction publique a été considéré comme l’un des plus importants. Les débats sur les finalités de l’instruction publique nationale, ont bien montré cette importance de l’éducation d’un nouvel homme et de sa formation en conformité avec les nouveaux buts nationaux.

description: This paper studies the optimal management of groundwater resources when agronomic and hydrologic constraints bind the use of groundwater for irrigation. The binding constraints lead to a perfectly inelastic demand for groundwater. In the case of symmetric agents the social and private rates of groundwater extraction coincide with one another and commonality is completely innocuous; in the case of asymmetric agents the rate of extraction remains the same in the social and private setting, yet irrigation is abandoned by the same agent at different times. The model offers one way to rationalize the empirically found peculiarities of sticky water demand and Gisser-Sanchez Effect which defy conventional theory. The situations described in the model also challenge conventional corrective measures for management of groundwater as a common property resource. Policy recommendations are provided.

description: The Geometric Bin Packing (GBP) problem is a generalization of Bin Packing where the input is a set of $d$-dimensional rectangles, and the goal is to pack them into unit $d$-dimensional cubes efficiently. It is NP-Hard to obtain a PTAS for the problem, even when $d=2$. For general $d$, the best-known approximation algorithm has an approximation guarantee exponential in $d$, while the best hardness of approximation is still a small constant inapproximability from the case when $d=2$. In this paper, we show that the problem cannot be approximated within $d^{1-ε}$ factor unless NP=P.
 Recently, $d$-dimensional Vector Bin Packing, a closely related problem to the GBP, was shown to be hard to approximate within $Ω(\log d)$ when $d$ is a fixed constant, using a notion of Packing Dimension of set families. In this paper, we introduce a geometric analog of it, the Geometric Packing Dimension of set families. While we fall short of obtaining similar inapproximability results for the Geometric Bin Packing problem when $d$ is fixed, we prove a couple of key properties of the Geometric Packing Dimension which highlight fundamental differences between Geometric Bin Packing and Vector Bin Packing.

We examine the terminal behavior of general relativistic, multi-transonic, hydrodynamic advective accretion in the Kerr metric, by analyzing various dynamical as well as thermodynamic properties of accreting matter extremely close to the event horizon, as a function of Kerr parameter $a$. The examination of the transonic properties of such flows can be useful in self-consistently discriminating between prograde and retrograde relativistic accretion, and in studying the spectral signatures of black hole rotation.

description: Near-equilibrium thermal detectors operate as classical calorimeters, with energy deposition and internal equilibration times short compared to the thermal time constant of the device. Advances in fabrication techniques, cryogenics, and electronics have made it practical to measure deposited energy with unprecedented sensitivity and precision. In this chapter we discuss performance considerations for these devices, including optimal filtering and energy resolution calculations. We begin with the basic theory of simple equilibrium calorimeters with ideal resistive thermometers. This provides a starting point for a brief discussion of electrothermal feedback, other noise sources, various non-ideal effects, and nonlinearity. We then describe other types of thermometers and show how they fit into this theoretical framework and why they may require different optimizations and figures of merit. Most of this discussion is applicable also to power detectors, or bolometers, where the detector time constants may be short compared to variations in the incident signal power.

description: This paper performs inequality decomposition by income sources using data from three different continents, using a unified inequality decomposition approach. Household survey data from Ethiopia, Georgia and Korea are used for this purpose, and the uniform result is that non-farm labor income is an equalizing source of income, in the sense that increasing non-farm labor income by 1% uniformly results in a lower Gini index of inequality. These results shed light on the processes that affect farm-household inequality under various geographical, economic and institutional conditions, and imply that policy directed towards non-farm income sources could not only raise rural incomes on average but also potentially reduce inequality, i.e., be pro-poor.

description: PSR B0540-69 is one of a small handful of pulsars known to emit giant pulses and the only extra-galactic pulsar known to do so. We observed the pulsar for a total of 72 hr over a 6 month interval and detected 141 giant pulses. We have obtained correct phasing between the radio arrival times of the giant pulses and the X-ray pulse profile. The giant pulses occur in two phase windows, located 6.7 ms before and 5.0 ms after the midpoint of the X-ray profile. We have detected the integrated profile of the pulsar at 1.4 GHz with a flux density of only 24 micro-Jy. The statistics of the giant pulses are clearly power-law and it is likely that the giant pulses contribute only a few per cent to the integrated pulse flux density, similar to other pulsars with giant pulse emission. Simultaneous X-ray and radio observations show no significant increase in the X-ray flux at the time of the radio giants. The relative enhancements in the X-ray emission must be at least 5.5 times smaller than in the radio.

description: The identity of dark matter is being sought with increasingly sensitive and voluminous underground detectors. Recently the XENON1T collaboration reported excess electronic recoil events, with most of these having recoil energies around $1-30$ keV. We show that a straightforward model of inelastic dark matter produced via early universe thermal freeze-out annihilation can account for the XENON1T excess. Remarkably, this dark matter model consists of a few simple elements: sub-GeV mass Dirac fermion dark matter coupled to a lighter dark photon kinetically mixed with the Standard Model photon. A scalar field charged under the dark U(1) gauge symmetry can provide a mass for the dark photon and splits the Dirac fermion component state masses by a few keV, which survive in equal abundance and interact inelastically with electrons and nuclei.

description: This study examines machine learning methods used in crisis management. Analyzing detected patterns from a crisis involves the collection and evaluation of historical or near-real-time datasets through automated means. This paper utilized the meta-review method to analyze scientific literature that utilized machine learning techniques to evaluate human actions during crises. Selected studies were condensed into themes and emerging trends using a systematic literature evaluation of published works accessed from three scholarly databases. Results show that data from social media was prominent in the evaluated articles with 27% usage, followed by disaster management, health (COVID) and crisis informatics, amongst many other themes. Additionally, the supervised machine learning method, with an application of 69% across the board, was predominant. The classification technique stood out among other machine learning tasks with 41% usage. The algorithms that played major roles were the Support Vector Machine, Neural Networks, Naive Bayes, and Random Forest, with 23%, 16%, 15%, and 12% contributions, respectively.

description: The aim of this paper is to re-examine the question of the average magnification in a universe with some inhomogeneously distributed matter. We present an analytic proof, valid under rather general conditions, including clumps of any shape and size, and strong lensing, that so long as the clumps are uncorrelated the average \emph{reciprocal} magnification (in one of several possible senses) is precisely the same as in a homogeneous universe with equal mean density. From this result, we also show that a similar statement can be made about one definition of average \emph{direct} magnification. We discuss, in the context of observations of discrete and extended sources, the physical significance of the various different measures of magnification and the circumstances in which they are appropriate.

description: This study aims to demonstrate the methods for detecting negations in a sentence by uniquely evaluating the lexical structure of the text via word-sense disambiguation. The proposed framework examines all the unique features in the various expressions within a text to resolve the contextual usage of all tokens and decipher the effect of negation on sentiment analysis. The application of popular expression detectors skips this important step, thereby neglecting the root words caught in the web of negation and making text classification difficult for machine learning and sentiment analysis. This study adopts the Natural Language Processing (NLP) approach to discover and antonimize words that were negated for better accuracy in text classification using a knowledge base provided by an NLP library called WordHoard. Early results show that our initial analysis improved on traditional sentiment analysis, which sometimes neglects negations or assigns an inverse polarity score. The SentiWordNet analyzer was improved by 35%, the Vader analyzer by 20% and the TextBlob by 6%.

description: Photoionization of matter is one of the fastest electronic processes in nature. Experimental measurements of photoionization dynamics have become possible through attosecond metrology. However, all experiments reported to date contain a so-far unavoidable measurement-induced contribution, known as continuum-continuum (CC) or Coulomb-laser-coupling delay. Exploiting the recently characterized circularly polarized attosecond pulse trains, we introduce the concept of mirror-symmetry-broken attosecond interferometry, which enables the direct and separate measurement of both the native one-photon ionization delays as well as the continuum-continuum delays. Our technique solves the longstanding challenge of experimentally isolating both the native one-photon-ionization (or Wigner) delays and the measurement-induced (CC) delays. This advance opens the door to a new generation of precision measurements that is likely to drive major progress in experimental and theoretical attosecond science with implications for benchmarking the accuracy of electronic-structure and electron-dynamics methods.

description: The rectified bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) in noncentrosymmetric semiconductors, also called shift current, is considered promising for optoelectronic devices, terahertz emission and possibly solar energy harvesting. A clear understanding of the shift current mechanism and search for materials with large shift current is, therefore, of immense interest. $ABC$ semiconductors LiZn$X$ ($X$ = N, P, As, and Sb) can be stabilized in cubic as well as hexagonal morphologies lacking inversion symmetry$-$an ideal platform to investigate the significant contributing factors to shift current, such as the role of structure and chemical species. Using density-functional calculations properly accounting for the electronic bandgaps, the shift current conductivities in LiZn$X$ ($X$ = P, As, Sb) are found to be approximately an order of magnitude larger than the well-known counterparts and peak close to the maximum solar radiation intensity. Notably, hexagonal LiZnSb shows a peak shift current conductivity of $\sim -75 ~\rm{\rmμ}$A/V$^2$ and Glass coefficient of $ -20$ $\times$ 10$^{-8}$ cm/V, comparable to the highest predicted values in literature. Our comparative analysis reveals a quantitative relationship between the shift current response and the electronic polarization. These findings not only posit Li-Zn-based $ABC$ semiconductors as viable material candidates for potential applications but also elucidates key aspects of the structure-BPVE relationship.

description: We consider the impact of second order corrections to the geodesic equation governing gravitational lensing. We start from the full second order metric, including scalar, vector and tensor perturbations, and retain all relevant contributions to the cosmic shear corrections that are second order in the gravitational potential. The relevant terms are: the nonlinear evolution of the scalar gravitational potential, the Born correction, and lens-lens coupling. No other second order terms contribute appreciably to the lensing signal. Since ray-tracing algorithims currently include these three effects, this derivation serves as rigorous justification for the numerical predictions.

description: A theory of quantitative inference about the parameters of sampling distributions is constructed deductively by following very general rules, referred to as the Cox-Polya-Jaynes Desiderata. The inferences are made in terms of probability distributions that are assigned to the parameters. The Desiderata, focusing primarily on consistency of the plausible reasoning, lead to unique assignments of these probabilities in the case of sampling distributions that are invariant under Lie groups. In the scalar cases, e.g. in the case of inferring a single location or scale parameter, the requirement for logical consistency is equivalent to the requirement for calibration: the consistent probability distributions are automatically also the ones with the exact calibration and vice versa. This equivalence speaks in favour of reconciliation between the Bayesian and Frequentist schools of reasoning.

description: We present a study of two-photon pathways for the transfer of NaCs molecules to their rovibrational ground state. Starting from NaCs Feshbach molecules, we perform bound-bound excited state spectroscopy in the wavelength range from 900~nm to 940~nm, covering more than 30 vibrational states of the $c \, ^3Σ^+$, $b \, ^3Π$, and $B \, ^1Π$ electronic states. Analyzing the rotational substructure, we identify the highly mixed $c \, ^3Σ^+_1 \, |v=22 \rangle \sim b \, ^3Π_1 \, | v=54\rangle$ state as an efficient bridge for stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP). We demonstrate transfer into the NaCs ground state with an efficiency of up to 88(4)\%. Highly efficient transfer is critical for the realization of many-body quantum phases of strongly dipolar NaCs molecules and high fidelity detection of single molecules, for example, in spin physics experiments in optical lattices and quantum information experiments in optical tweezer arrays.

Information disclosure and protection of investors in China’s securities market

description: China is undergoing a tremendous change which has begun ever since late 1978 when it opened its door to the outside world and gradually implemented the market-oriented economic reform. With the establishment of the Shanghai Stock Exchange in December 1990, China began a wellpublicized effort to build a legal regime for regulating the securities market. At present, China's stock exchange trading system reaches all large and medium-sized cities with 2,412 retail branches all over China with the total market capitalization of more than RJV1B 1,950.5 billion, equivalent to 24.46% of GDP. Securities regulation was originated from England and had significant developments in the U.S during late 19t h century. One of the major objectives of securities regulations is the protection of investors. Requiring issuers to provide investors with the knowledge necessary to facilitate informed investment decisions is one means through which securities regulation attempts to protect the investors. The securities regulations of China have relatively comprehensive requirements on information disclosure, however, misrepresentation made by listed companies has been rampant in the market. Investors who suffer losses incurred by such misrepresentation have not been compensated for the lack of adequate civil remedy under Chinese securities regulations, which have been considered as an instrument of the leadership to meet political and/or economic ends, and meanwhile reflect unique Chinese legal culture originating from traditional Confucianism. Having realized the necessity and urgency of civil remedy, Chinese lawmakers have made new legislation to overrule previous "inefficient" judicial decisions, which prohibited the People's Court to accept misrepresentation related civil suits brought by the investors against listed companies. In addition, securities regulations also need to address lessons learnt by the Western regulatory authorities after the failures of Bre-Xs and Enrons, which are the pursuit of true information disclosure and the advances on corporate governance. Undergoing the huge economy reform, obviously China has dedicated to the protection of private rights. For example, the first Civil Code of the People's Republic of China has been drafted. It is reasonable to believe that Chinese are progressing to an era when people enjoy all sorts of civil rights; what's more, their entitlements are well protected by laws.

description: This paper measures and compares total factor productivity growth in African agriculture under contemporaneous and sequential technology frontiers over the period 1970–2004. The paper further investigates the sources of agricultural productivity growth using a fixed-effects regression model and a second-degree polynomial distributed lag structure for agricultural research. The conventional estimates show an average productivity growth rate of only 0.3% per year over the period 1970–2004. In contrast to conventional measures, however, the improved measures under sequential technology show that agricultural productivity grew at a higher rate of 1.8% per year. Technical progress, rather than efficiency change, was the principal source of productivity growth. Agricultural research has turned out to have positive and significant impacts on productivity. The estimated productivity elasticity with respect to agricultural research is 0.04 and suggests that doubling research investments would lead to a 4% increase in total factor productivity. Consistent with the induced intensification hypothesis, population pressure has a positive and significant effect on agricultural productivity. We find a negative and significant relationship between rainfall variability, confirming that drought is a major constraint to agricultural production in Africa.

description: In this paper, we tackle the problem of egocentric action anticipation, i.e., predicting what actions the camera wearer will perform in the near future and which objects they will interact with. Specifically, we contribute Rolling-Unrolling LSTM, a learning architecture to anticipate actions from egocentric videos. The method is based on three components: 1) an architecture comprised of two LSTMs to model the sub-tasks of summarizing the past and inferring the future, 2) a Sequence Completion Pre-Training technique which encourages the LSTMs to focus on the different sub-tasks, and 3) a Modality ATTention (MATT) mechanism to efficiently fuse multi-modal predictions performed by processing RGB frames, optical flow fields and object-based features. The proposed approach is validated on EPIC-Kitchens, EGTEA Gaze+ and ActivityNet. The experiments show that the proposed architecture is state-of-the-art in the domain of egocentric videos, achieving top performances in the 2019 EPIC-Kitchens egocentric action anticipation challenge. The approach also achieves competitive performance on ActivityNet with respect to methods not based on unsupervised pre-training and generalizes to the tasks of early action recognition and action recognition. To encourage research on this challenging topic, we made our code, trained models, and pre-extracted features available at our web page: http://iplab.dmi.unict.it/rulstm.
