description: Ausgehend von einem soziologischen Verständnis von Behinderung und der Feststellung, dass auf Behinderung fokussierte Inklusionsdiskurse zur (Re-)Pro­duktion des sozialen Phänomens Behinderung und zum Vorhandensein einer Behindertenrolle beitragen, wird verdeutlicht, dass sich auf dieser Grundlage für beeinträchtigte Menschen keine rollenspezifische Verantwortung – die im Hinblick auf Demokratie ein zentrales Moment darstellt – ableiten lässt. Gleichzeitig wird vor dem Hintergrund der Klärung, was sozialrollenbezogene Verantwortung meint, aufgezeigt, dass über die Behindertenrolle – die auf Hilfsbedürftigkeit und Passivität ausgerichtet ist – sozialrollenspezifische Verantwortung von nichtbeeinträchtigten Bürger*innen hergestellt wird. Zugleich bekommen von Beeinträchtigung betroffene Menschen keine (demokratierelevante) Verantwortung zuerkannt, sodass sie in einem Handlungsobjektstatus für nichtbeeinträchtigte Akteure verbleiben und dementsprechend auch keine Verantwortung für das Gelingen von De­mokratie haben (können).

description: While most innovations are developed in organizations, there is a wide-spread consensus that the organizational institutionalization of Responsible (Research and) Innovation is limited. This may partly be the case because we lack an understanding of what factors drive or impede the institutionalization of such responsibility-related changes and how they interact. In this paper, we draw from various institutional entrepreneurs’ experiences, who worked within eight organizational change labs, to explore the dynamic institutionalization of Responsible (Research and) Innovation. Our study identifies 29 factors highlighting some of the intricate, dynamic, and ‘messy’ complexities found in organizations. We conclude by offering some reflections on the role of institutional entrepreneurship for Responsible (Research and) Innovation.

description: While natural disasters impact on people regardless their economic capacity, vulnerable people are affected more than others. By exacerbating housing market problems, housing recovery after the natural disaster events reveals the inequality issue in post-disaster planning. Cue to the failure of the institution, victims from disasters experience both the inflation of housing market stemming from the gentrification after the disaster and the depreciation of property value from risks of future disasters.
	The study examines the property value changes of three boroughs, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island using Inverse Distance Weight Interpolation method. Thereafter, by using geographically weighted regression (GWR) model, the research finds out the impact of the Sandy on housing market dynamics in New York City; the impact of Sandy is relying on the location and the situation of both individual property and neighborhoods, especially the proximity and the accessibility to the urban core such as Manhattan and New Jersey. The purpose of the study is to provide the insight for planners and policy makers with the clue to device a reasonable and efficient housing recovery plan by examining the correlation between housing market change and disaster issue.

description: Während globalgeschichtliche Ansätze sich aus der Geschichtswissenschaft nicht mehr wegdenken lassen, dominiert im Geschichtsunterricht ein nationales Narrativ. Der Unterricht verpasst auf diese Weise nicht nur den Anschluss an gegenwärtige Entwicklungen in der Wissenschaft, sondern verfehlt das selbst gesetzte Ziel, den Schüler*innen Orientierung in ihrer Lebenswelt zu bieten. Wie kann historisches Lernen einen Beitrag dazu leisten, dass sich Schüler*innen in einer zunehmend globaleren Welt zurechtfinden und dazu befähigt werden, Gesellschaft mitzugestalten? Welche Akzente kann die geschichtsdidaktische Lehrer*innenbildung im Rahmen der Querschnittsaufgabe Globales Lernen für die Demokratiebildung setzen? Wie muss sich der Geschichtsunterricht verändern, um der Diversität an Lebenswelten, die in einem Klassenraum zusammenfinden, gerecht zu werden? Im Praxisprojekt Wissen um globale Verflechtungen haben Didaktiker*innen und Fachwissenschaftler*innen an der Universität Bielefeld gemeinsam Unterrichtsmaterialien für den Schulunterricht entwickelt, um aufzuzeigen, wie sich die Forderung einer Perspektiverweiterung sowie die Förderung verflechtungsgeschichtlicher Perspektiven im Unterricht in der Schulpraxis umsetzen lassen. Davon ausgehend formuliert der vorliegende Artikel Impulse für die Lehrer*innenbildung.

description: Nearly $60$ years ago, László Fuchs posed the problem of determining which groups can be realized as the group of units of a commutative ring. To date, the question remains open, although significant progress has been made. Along this line, one could also ask the more general question as to which finite groups can be realized as the group of units of a finite ring. In this paper, we consider the question of which $2$-groups are realizable as unit groups of finite rings, a necessary step toward determining which nilpotent groups are realizable. We prove that all $2$-groups of exponent $4$ and exponent $2$ are realizable in characteristic $2$, and we prove that many $2$-groups with exponent $4$ and nilpotency class $3$ are realizable in characteristic $2$. On the other hand, we provide an example of a $2$-group with exponent $4$ and nilpotency class $4$ that is not realizable in characteristic $2$. Moreover, while some groups of exponent greater than $4$ are realizable as unit groups of rings, we prove that any $2$-group with a self-centralizing element of order $8$ or greater is never realizable in characteristic $2^m$, and consequently any indecomposable, nonabelian group with a self-centralizing element of order $8$ or greater cannot be the group of units of a finite ring.

description: Global civilisation, and therefore population health, is threatened by excessive inequality, weapons of mass destruction, inadequate economic and political theory and adverse global environmental change. The unequal distribution of global foreign exchange adjusted income is both a cause and a reflection of global social characteristics responsible for many aspects of these inter-related crises. ¶ The global distribution of foreign exchange adjusted income for the period 1964-1999 is examined. Using data for more than 99% of the global population, a substantial divergence in its distribution is found. The global Gini co-efficient, adjusted for national income inequality, increased from an already high value of 71% in 1964 to peak at more than 80% in 1995, before falling, very slightly, to 79% in 1999. The global distribution of purchasing parity power income is also examined, for a similar period. Though also found to be extremely unequal, its trend has not been to increased inequality. Implications of the differences between these two trends are discussed. ...

description: Eye diseases are common issues that arise in people with diabetes. Early detection and treatment of these diseases can help in preventing vision loss. Diabetic Eye disease (DED) is becoming impossible to analyse and examine manually, as the number of cases increases. In an earlier stage, changes in eye anatomy variations are often undetectable to the human eye because the features are subtle in nature. The major strains based on the restricted specialist resources are caused by a lot of fundus images whereas the manual examination is hardly possible. Hence, the likeability of deep learning in real-world applications is considered whereas this research investigated deep learning-based approaches to detect the DED at an earlier stage and solve currently encountered problems. Therefore, a novel Deep Convolutional Transfer Learning-based Crossover Harbor Whisker Seal (DCTL-CHW) algorithm is proposed in this article for the automatic detection and classification of diabetic eye diseases. These advanced steps involved in the proposed approach include image pre-processing, data augmentation, DED feature extraction and segmentation, model fine-tuning, and selection of model optimization are employed to evolve an improved system. Hence, the analysis results of examining the various retinal images state that the performances are better than those of all other approaches in terms of effective early diagnosis of DED. The analysis shows that the accuracy, and precision, attained from DCTL-CHW are 96.56%, and 96.51%, respectively.

description: Transdermal drug delivery is a rapidly expanding industry with significant advantages over conventional oral and intravenous methods. However, in order to gain a better understanding of drug permeation mechanisms and obtain accurate estimates of drug permeability to the skin, there is an urgent need for modeling techniques. In this thesis, we present a multi-scale modeling approach to investigate solute transport through the human stratum corneum. Firstly, continuum finite element brick-and-mortar models were constructed to study water permeation. Subsequently, molecular dynamics simulations were employed to investigate the permeation of various solutes through lipid bilayers within the stratum corneum. [...]
Performance bond requirements for coal mining in the United States

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: One of the primary goals of the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA) is to ensure adequate reclamation of areas disturbed by surface coal mining operations. The U.S. Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) and State enforcement agencies apply the requirements of SMCRA by permitting mining only after receipt of a performance bond sufficient to ensure completion of the approved reclamation plan. Performance bond amounts are based upon the costs of performing reclamation by a third-party contractor engaged by the regulatory authority. The amount is also based upon those conditions that define the point in the planned mining operation that presents the greatest estimated reclamation costs for the permitted mining term. The minimum required bond amount is $10,000 and any bond may be periodically adjusted by the regulatory authority to account for changes in the mining plan, postmining land use, or other circumstances that may increase or decrease the cost of reclamation.

description: We present a concise pedagogic introduction to group representation theory motivated by the historical developments surrounding the advent of the Eightfold Way. Abstract definitions of groups and representations are avoided in favour of the physical intuition of symmetries of the nuclear interaction. The concept of nuclear isospin is used as a physical motivation to introduce SU(2) and discuss the main techniques of representation theory. The discovery of strange particles motivates extending the symmetry group to SU(3), at first in the context of the Sakata model. We highlight the successes in fitting mesons in the SU(3) octet, discuss the drawbacks of the Sakata model for baryonic classifications, and how the Eightfold Way finally led to the quark model. This approach has two major advantages: (i) the main concepts of the theory of Lie groups are introduced and discussed without ever losing touch with its applications in particle physics; (ii) it allows the beginner to study group theory while also becoming acquainted with the historical developments of particle physics that led to the concept of quarks. In particular, in this pedagogical path the quarks appear as yet another class of particles predicted from symmetry principles, rather than being introduced ad hoc for postulating an SU(3) symmetry, as usually done in the literature.

description: Bregman divergences generalize measures such as the squared Euclidean distance and the KL divergence, and arise throughout many areas of machine learning. In this paper, we focus on the problem of approximating an arbitrary Bregman divergence from supervision, and we provide a well-principled approach to analyzing such approximations. We develop a formulation and algorithm for learning arbitrary Bregman divergences based on approximating their underlying convex generating function via a piecewise linear function. We provide theoretical approximation bounds using our parameterization and show that the generalization error $O_p(m^{-1/2})$ for metric learning using our framework matches the known generalization error in the strictly less general Mahalanobis metric learning setting. We further demonstrate empirically that our method performs well in comparison to existing metric learning methods, particularly for clustering and ranking problems.

Uniqueness of the Phase Transition in Many-Dipole Cavity Quantum Electrodynamical Systems

description: The possibility of a superradiant phase transition in light-matter systems is the subject of much debate, due to numerous apparently conflicting no-go and counter no-go theorems. Using an arbitrary gauge approach we show that a unique phase transition does occur in archetypal many-dipole cavity QED systems, and that it manifests unambiguously via a macroscopic gauge-invariant polarisation. We find that the gauge choice controls the extent to which this polarisation is included as part of the radiative quantum subsystem and thereby determines the degree to which the abnormal phase is classed as superradiant. This resolves the long-standing paradox of no-go and counter no-go theorems for superradiance, which are shown to refer to different definitions of radiation.

description: The multifractal dimensions D2^mu and D2^psi of the energy spectrum and eigenfunctions, resp., are shown to determine the asymptotic scaling of the width of a spreading wave packet. For systems where the shape of the wave packet is preserved the k-th moment increases as t^(k*beta) with beta=D2^mu/D2^psi, while in general t^(k*beta) is an optimal lower bound. Furthermore, we show that in d dimensions asymptotically in time the center of any wave packet decreases spatially as a power law with exponent D_2^psi - d and present numerical support for these results.

description: As autonomous vehicles (AVs) become increasingly prevalent in our society, it is crucial to address the technical challenges coexisting with human-driven vehicles (HVs) on the roads. Transportation administrators and constructors must be poised to harness the controllability and potential offered by these innovative vehicles when they gradually penetrate the roads in the near future. However, existing studies often focus on either the safe autonomous driving technology of single AVs alongside HVs or on collective coordination among AVs exclusively, neglecting the challenges inherent in heterogeneous multi-agent transportation systems. These challenges encompass critical aspects such as safety, human-robot interactions, and infrastructure adaptation, which Requires detailed exploration. This paper aims to explore the current state and future challenges in mixed traffic scenarios that lie at the intersection of artificial intelligence, multi-agent systems, safe control, and intelligent systems design in the context of advancing AV technology while ensuring safety and effective interaction between human, robot, and road infrastructure. We examine the current state-of-the-art of AV technology, identify key challenges for integrating human-centric approaches into the design, development, and deployment of AVs. Drawing upon insights from safety standards, human-robot interaction, and road infrastructure design frameworks, we highlight the important aspects surrounding AV and HV designs to enhance user trust, acceptance, and overall societal impact.
Genus Distributions of Graphs Constructed Through Amalgamations

Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: Computer science

description: Graphs are commonly represented as points in space connected by lines. The points in space are the vertices of the graph, and the lines joining them are the edges of the graph. A general definition of a graph is considered here, where multiple edges are allowed between two vertices and an edge is permitted to connect a vertex to itself. It is assumed that graphs are connected, i.e., any vertex in the graph is reachable from another distinct vertex either directly through an edge connecting them or by a path consisting of intermediate vertices and connecting edges. Under this visual representation, graphs can be drawn on various surfaces. The focus of my research is restricted to a class of surfaces that are characterized as compact connected orientable 2-manifolds. The drawings of graphs on surfaces that are of primary interest follow certain prescribed rules. These are called 2-cellular graph embeddings, or simply embeddings. A well-known closed formula makes it easy to enumerate the total number of 2-cellular embeddings for a given graph over all surfaces. A much harder task is to give a surface-wise breakdown of this number as a sequence of numbers that count the number of 2-cellular embeddings of a graph for each orientable surface. This sequence of numbers for a graph is known as the genus distribution of a graph. Prior research on genus distributions of graphs has primarily focused on making calculations of genus distributions for specific families of graphs. These families of graphs have often been contrived, and the methods used for finding their genus distributions have not been general enough to extend to other graph families. The research I have undertaken aims at developing and using a general method that frames the problem of calculating genus distributions of large graphs in terms of a partitioning of the genus distributions of smaller graphs. To this end, I use various operations such as edge-amalgamation, self-edge-amalgamation, and vertex-amalgamation to construct large graphs out of smaller graphs, by coupling their vertices and edges together in certain consistent ways. This method assumes that the partitioned genus distribution of the smaller graphs is known or is easily calculable by computer, for instance, by using the famous Heffter-Edmonds algorithm. As an outcome of the techniques used, I obtain general recurrences and closed-formulas that give genus distributions for infinitely many recursively specifiable graph families. I also give an easily understood method for finding non-trivial examples of distinct graphs having the same genus distribution. In addition to this, I describe an algorithm that computes the genus distributions for a family of graphs known as the 4-regular outerplanar graphs.

description: X-rays and extreme ultraviolet radiation impacting on a gas produce a variety of effects that, depending on the electron content, may provide a significant heating of the illuminated region. In a planetary atmosphere of solar composition, stellar high energy radiation may heat the gas to very high temperatures, that may have consequences on the stability of planetary atmospheres, in particular for close-in planets. We investigate the variations with stellar age in the occurring frequency of gas giant planets orbiting G and M stars, taking into account that the high energy luminosity of a low mass star evolves in time, both in intensity and hardness. Using the energy-limited escape approach we investigate the effects induced by the atmospheric mass loss on giant exoplanet distribution that is initially flat, at several distances from the parent star. We follow the dynamical evolution of the planet atmosphere, tracking the departures from the initial profile due to the atmospheric escape, until it reaches the final mass-radius configuration. We find that a significant fraction of low mass Jupiter-like planets orbiting with periods lower than ~3.5 days either vaporize during the first billion years, or lose a relevant part of their atmospheres. The planetary initial mass profile is significantly distorted; in particular, the frequency of occurrence of gas giants, less massive than 2 MJ, around young star can be considerably greater than the one around older stellar counterparts.

Subjects: ecstacy • MDMA • memory • visual perception

description: There is A growing body of evidence that the main psychoactive ingredient of the recreational drug “ecstasy” (methylendioxymethamphetamine; MDMA) causes lasting changes to the serotonin system in both animals and humans. Previous studies have often found memory deficits in ecstasy users. However, the results have been far from consistent across studies. Three memory studies were conducted in this thesis to clarify which components and processes of memory are in deficit in ecstasy users. ...

description: In this paper we describe a parallel algorithm for generating all non-isomorphic rank $3$ simple matroids with a given multiplicity vector. We apply our implementation in the HPC version of GAP to generate all rank $3$ simple matroids with at most $14$ atoms and a splitting characteristic polynomial. We have stored the resulting matroids alongside with various useful invariants in a publicly available, ArangoDB-powered database. As a byproduct we show that the smallest divisionally free rank $3$ arrangement which is not inductively free has $14$ hyperplanes and exists in all characteristics distinct from $2$ and $5$. Another database query proves that Terao's freeness conjecture is true for rank $3$ arrangements with $14$ hyperplanes in any characteristic.

description: To every oriented tree, we associate a moduli problem for sheaves over a projective manifold $X$. We define the corresponding notion of semistability and establish the existence of moduli spaces. Applying the results to the tree *->*, we obtain a GIT construction for the moduli space of holomorphic triples of Bradlow and Garcia-Prada.

Subjects: subject: Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs)

subject: Health improvement, Sri Lanka

description: For any country it is impossible to afford all the health programmes, medicines and technologies that might be available to improve the health of the people. Thus, some systematic method of prioritisation is required and resources must be concentrated where health improvement is maximized. Health improvement is twofold: length of life and quality of life for the community. The concept of Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) encompasses both, and is the preferred outcome measure in health resource allocation decisions. Quality of life is valued by the preference weights given for different health states. These weights, called utility weights, are accrued from the preference of people using preference elicitation methods. However, it is doubtful whether utility weights mostly used in high income countries are applicable to Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs). Socio-economic and cultural variances demand country specific utility weights.
From interacting agents to density-based modeling with stochastic PDEs

description: Many real-world processes can naturally be modeled as systems of interacting agents. However, the long-term simulation of such agent-based models is often intractable when the system becomes too large. In this paper, starting from a stochastic spatio-temporal agent-based model (ABM), we present a reduced model in terms of stochastic PDEs that describes the evolution of agent number densities for large populations. We discuss the algorithmic details of both approaches; regarding the SPDE model, we apply Finite Element discretization in space which not only ensures efficient simulation but also serves as a regularization of the SPDE. Illustrative examples for the spreading of an innovation among agents are given and used for comparing ABM and SPDE models.

description: DESCRIPTION OF FURFURILACTOBACILLUS GEN. NOV.
 Furfurilactobacillus (Fur.fu.ri.lac.to.ba.cil’lus. L. masc. n. furfur bran, relating to the origin of furfurilactobacilli from cereal fermentations; N.L. masc. n. Lactobacillus a bacterial genus name; N.L. masc. n. Furfurilactobacillus a lactobacillus from bran).
 Heterofermentative and aerotolerant. Growth is observed at 15 and 37°C but not at 45 °C. The two species in the genus with genome sequences available have a genome size of 2.9–3.0 Mbp and a mol% G+C content of DNA of 43–44 %. Species in the genus were isolated from sourdough or spoiled beer and have an exceptional capacity to metabolize phenolic compounds [240, 241]. The ecology of the genus remains largely unexplored but appears to be similar to the nomadic lifestyle of L. plantarum.
 A phylogenetic tree on the basis of 16S rRNA genes of all species in the genus Lactiplantibacillus is provided in Figure S 6L.
 The type species of the genus is Furfurilactobacillus rossiae comb. nov.; Furfurilactobacillus was previously referred to as L. rossiae group.

Rural resilience and prosperity : the relevance of government and community networks
Creators: name: Brooks, Kathryn Janet (Lamb)
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2006
Subjects: social capital • Australia • rural communities • community prosperity • community resilience • linking networks • government policy

description: Dominant ‘society centred’ interpretations of social capital in Australia are inadequate to explain the economic fortunes and social prosperity of rural Australian communities. Given the continued contention over interpretations and measurement of social capital, this research sought to assess the relationship between different interpretations of social capital and rural communities’ resilience and prosperity. ¶ Utilising both quantitative and qualitative techniques to establish the relative levels of social capital in two communities of divergent growth, the primary objective was to test the association asserted between levels of social capital and prosperity and resilience in the rural Australian context. ¶ The research findings highlight three notable issues. Surveying social capital with current instruments is only effective in establishing the well being of rural communities which appears related to their resilience, not their ability to prosper. Secondly, the operational frameworks and responsibilities for social capital adopted by governments dictate the manner in, and degree to which they deem bridging and linking networks necessary and appropriate. This significantly affects the role social capital is perceived to play in communities. Lastly, while interpretations of social capital regard it as a normative factor in social life, rather than being comprised of different and dynamic elements affecting communities’ ability to prosper, the concept will remain unable to effectively contribute to the policy domain.
