Sidewalk appropriation: the shaping of street space in Manhattan's Chinatown
Creators: name: Peng, Bo
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: My research in Manhattan’s Chinatown investigates how the sidewalk experience brings vitality to the neighborhood, in particular, leading to the developing of different typologies of sidewalk appropriation and their implications on social activity and use. This appropriation reflects how the public space is used and appropriated by shop owners or residents in both planned and insurgent, permanent and temporary ways. The flourishing of street life is also the primary source of the urban vitality in Chinatown that makes it so different from commercial areas in other places in modern Manhattan.In order to identify the key features that bring the street vitality, this thesis researches on the shaping of street space in Manhattan’s Chinatown from two aspects – the top-down perspective and the bottom-up perspective. By collecting data and documents regarding the history and development of Manhattan’s Chinatown in terms of planning policies of street shaping, it is the immigration’s policies and the city planning board’s effort that shape the Chinatown as a commercial and tourist district to provide an exotic experience. From the bottom-up perspective, seven typologies of sidewalk appropriation are developed, using Activity Setting Analysis and Environmental Behavior Observation, based on the spatial characteristics and activity opportunities. These different uses of sidewalk space indicate that sidewalks in Manhattan's Chinatown are mixed-use space with clear separation of vehicular and pedestrian traffic, while the mixed-use of space is realized by adding multiple nodes along the linear paths that attract pedestrian.

Genealogy of hungry women writers and artists: rethinking Chinese modernity through the arts of female hunger
Creators: name: Qu, Lina
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2019

description: This dissertation is an interdisciplinary and multimedia project examining literary work, independent documentary, and new media content authored by Chinese women writers and artists, whose lives and works have been conditioned by corporeal experiences of hunger from the beleaguered Republican era to the contemporary age of affluence. It argues that the corporeal and performative authorship of hungry women writers and artists belies the reductive victimization and stigmatization of female hunger in the representative tradition of modern Chinese literature and culture, and that the art of female hunger complicates the romanticizing trope of the hungry young artist in the Euro-American literary tradition by intersecting the poetic with the political. It.Mapping the genealogy of hungry women writers and artists throughout the long twentieth century, under varying circumstances of poverty, famine, social restructuring, and consumer culture, the dissertation reexamines Chinese modernity from the marginalized position of the hungry others and reconfigures Chinese modernity in tandem with media evolution from print to the Internet. The way female hunger is represented in modern literary and visual works compels us to rethink Chinese modernity as an embodied historical process, which women have experienced on bodily and quotidian levels. It is imperative, historically and ethically, for us to explore the abject experiences of the hungry others against the shifting social and geopolitical structures, especially when China is quickly transforming into a society of affluence.

description: The Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) is a new network architecture known for its high accuracy in several tasks such as function fitting and PDE solving. The superior expressive capability of KAN arises from the Kolmogorov-Arnold representation theorem and learnable spline functions. However, the computation of spline functions involves multiple iterations, which renders KAN significantly slower than MLP, thereby increasing the cost associated with model training and deployment. The authors of KAN have also noted that ``the biggest bottleneck of KANs lies in its slow training. KANs are usually 10x slower than MLPs, given the same number of parameters.'' To address this issue, we propose a novel MLP-type neural network PowerMLP that employs simpler non-iterative spline function representation, offering approximately the same training time as MLP while theoretically demonstrating stronger expressive power than KAN. Furthermore, we compare the FLOPs of KAN and PowerMLP, quantifying the faster computation speed of PowerMLP. Our comprehensive experiments demonstrate that PowerMLP generally achieves higher accuracy and a training speed about 40 times faster than KAN in various tasks.
Whose actions speak louder than words? The role of referents in the turnover contagion process
Creators: name: Pustovit, Aleksandra

Year: 2019

description: Building on the stream of literature that seeks to better understand the effects turnover has on those who remain with the organization, this manuscript answers calls for understanding the mechanism through which turnover contagion operates and identifying the types of individuals disproportionately responsible for its spread. Delving into human motivations for engaging in imitation and the significance of employment, I identify cues emitted by leavers, and colleagues engaging in Pre-Quitting Behaviors, about the organizational attractiveness as a mechanism responsible for the spread of turnover. I apply Theories of Normative Influence and Social Comparison to identify the types of individuals whose turnover is most consequential.In a sample of 144 public university newcomers, results suggest that presence of turnover related behaviors among colleagues need not be evidence of contagion. It’s not so much the behaviors themselves, but the interpretation of cues behind these behaviors, and whether these cues speak negatively about the organization, that are responsible for the spread of turnover.
Two problems in random graph theory

description: This thesis discusses three problems in probabilistic and extremal combinatorics.Our first result examines the structure of the largest subgraphs of the Erdos-Renyi random graph, G(n,p), with a given matching number. This extends a result of Erdos and Gallai who, in 1959, gave a classification of the structures of the largest subgraphs of K_n with a given matching number. We show that their result extends to G(n,p) with high probability when p> 8ln(n)/n or p << 1/n, but that it does not extend (again with high probability) when $4ln(2e)/n < p< ln(n)/(3n). The second result examines bounds on upper tails for cycles counts in G(n,p). For a fixed graph H define X_H= X_H^{n,p} to be the number of copies of H in G(n,p). It is a much studied and surprisingly difficult problem to understand the upper tail of the distribution of X_H, for example, to estimateP(X_H > 2 E(X_H)).The best known result for general H and p is due to Janson, Oleszkiewicz, and Rucinski, who, in 2004, provedexp[-O_{H, eta}(M_H(n,p) ln(1/p))] (1+eta)E(X_H)) ln^{1/(l-2)}(n)/n.Finally, we exhibit a counterexample to a strengthening of the Union-Closed Sets conjecture. This conjecture states that if a finite (non-empty) family of sets A is union-closed, then there is an element which belongs to at least half the sets in A. In 2001, Reimer showed that the average size of a set in a union-closed family, A, is at least (1/2) log_2 |A|. In order to do so, he showed that all union-closed families satisfy a particular condition, which in turn implies the preceding bound. Here, answering a question raised in the context of Gowers' polymath project on the union-closed sets conjecture, we show that Reimer's condition alone is not enough to imply that there is an element in at least half the sets.
Utilization of cell-free DNA screening for single gene disorders seen more commonly in offspring of older fathers

description: As novel technologies readily become available for patients, we sought to determine the uptake rates as well as any barriers, to cell-free DNA screening for single gene disorders with advanced paternal age as a primary indication for which the technology was offered. This novel technology uses cell-free DNA in maternal serum to screen for de novo, single-gene, autosomal dominant mutations associated with advanced paternal age. This small pilot study retrospectively examined one year of data (June 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018) at a regional perinatal center. Of the 1,843 genetic counseling encounters, we examined records for 51 patients that were offered this novel screening technology due to advanced paternal age in the male reproductive partner. We found that 17/51 (33%) patients utilized this screen. To better understand the potential barriers for the uptake of this screen, we assessed gravity and parity status, maternal age, paternal age, history of infertility, gestational age at the time screening was offered, presence of the father of the fetus at the appointment, and if the patient had invasive testing. Through multivariant analysis, our study revealed two statistically significant factors associated with technology uptake rates. These two factors were patients whose partner was present at the genetic counseling session when the screen was offered, and patients who had invasive testing. Paternal age-related risks are an important discussion point in reproductive genetic counseling. Novel technologies that assess these risks have to be carefully studied before they are implemented into prenatal practice.

Generation of anti-tumorigenic MET receptor variants by splicing interference
Creators: name: Rathod, Trushar
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Aberrant activation of MET, a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), leads to tumor growth, invasion and metastasis and is implicated in multiple types of cancers. Hence, various strategies have been employed to target MET for cancer therapy including recombinant form of MET ectodomain to sequester ligand and suppress MET activity. Here, we describe multiple C-terminal truncated MET decoys receptors (sdMET) with therapeutic potential. We show that these sdMET isoforms are translated from stable mRNA variants which are generated via Intronic polyadenylation (IPA) of MET’s pre-mRNA in a U1-snRNP (U1) dependent manner. Moreover, we demonstrate increase in sdMET IPA isoforms of choice at expense of full-length MET with our antisense-based strategy by blocking U1 binding to specific 5’ splice site and activating downstream intronic poly (A) site. Our strategy is an improvement of current methods due to its two-pronged approach: suppress MET activity in targeted cells by converting oncogenic MET into soluble decoy to have dominant negative effect on surround microenvironment in paracrine manner.

description: Using an open-source operant feeding device (FED3), we measured food-seeking nose poking behavior in mice. When the mice were exposed to 4 h restricted feeding at night, all mice exhibited robust food anticipatory nose poking starting ~4 h before scheduled mealtime. When the light-dark cycle was advanced by 6 h, mice exhibited two distinct bouts of anticipatory poking, one corresponding to actual mealtime which continued at the same time of day, and one corresponding to predicted mealtime which shifted parallel with the light-dark cycle. Likewise, two similar bouts of food-seeking behavior appeared when the light-dark cycle was delayed for 9 h. These data suggest that food anticipatory behavior is encoded to a circadian oscillator that entrains to the light-dark cycle. Two weeks after advancing the light-dark cycle, mice incidentally received a 3.5 h dark pulse in the middle of the day. This single dark pulse had a negligible effect on running wheel behavior but caused a temporary attenuation of both food anticipatory poking and pellet intake. These results suggest that the circadian oscillator controlling food anticipatory poking is sensitive to light disruption and that proper food anticipation is critical for sufficient food intake during temporally restricted feeding.

Discussion. Reed (1915, 1917) described a number of Illaenus species from both the northern part of the Shan State and western Yunnan, mostly from fragmentary material. Attempts to make casts from the illustrated specimens were variably successful, but are included here for the sake of completeness. Since the classic works of Jaanusson (1954) and Bruton & Owen (1988) it has been clear that for meaningful systematics of Illaenus species it is necessary to know such features as the dorsal surface sculpture, particularly on the cephalon, details of muscle insertion areas, and such ventral features as the outline and extent of the pygidial doublure. Reed’s specimens do not show most of these important features, and are not determinable in a modern way. Only one species, Illaenus caecoides, from Shihtien, Yunnan, was formally named. One cranidial fragment from Yunnan illustrated by Reed (1917, pl. 8, fig. 3) as Illaenus cf. tauricornis is not only incomplete, but also an internal mould, and very distorted. It is not worth re-illustrating. Two other fragmentary illaenids from Yunnan described by Reed (1917) as Illaenu s cf. oblongatus and I. aff punctulosus, were not successfully cast, and are not discussed in this paper. There is no reason to reproduce Reed’s original remarks for the illaenids and only brief comments will be given here. All except I. caecoides were recorded by Reed under open nomenclature.

description: Сoding sequences of seven housekeeping genes: actin SaACT7, ubiquitin-conjugating protein SaUBC10, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase SaGAPDH, protein of the large subunit of ribosomes SaL2, α-tubulin SaTUA, translation elongation factor SaeEF1α, and protein phosphatase SaPP2A were identified as candidate reference genes for expression analysis of target genes in the extremely salt tolerant plant Suaeda altissima (L.) Pall. The expression profiles of the genes differed. SaACT7 and SaeEF1α demonstrated the highest expression levels, while the lowest expression levels were found for SaPP2A and SaTUA. SaPP2A and SaeEF1α genes were the most stably expressed at different steady-state salinity levels and different nitrate concentrations in nutrient solutions (NSs). SaL2, SaPP2A, and SaeEF1α genes showed the greatest stability of expression when nitrate was added to nutrient solution of plants grown under conditions of nitrate deficiency. Less constant expression was demonstrated in this experiment by SaACT7 and SaTUA. SaL2, SaACT7, SaeEF1α, and SaUBC10 genes showed the smallest expression changes under salt shock. To validate the use of the most stably expressed genes for normalization of gene expression, we checked them as reference genes to study the expression of the nitrate transporter gene SaNPF6.3 in S. altissima roots under conditions of different salinity and different nitrate supply.

description: The bird of paradise plant is a clumping tropical species native to South Africa. It is a dramatic plant with distinctive iridescent orange and midnight blue flowers that resemble an exotic bird peeking out from the broad leaves in autumn, winter and spring. An experiment was conducted during the two seasons of 2021 and 2022 at a private farm in Damanhour, Beheira Governorate, Egypt (31“°” 04 ”°“N, 30“°” 47’ °E) to study the effect different concentrations of nano-potassium and chitosan and their combinations on the bird of Paradise (Sterlitiza reginae). The experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block in a split-plot design with five replicates; nano-potassium was used at 0, 100, 150, and 200 mg/l and assigned to the main plots, whereas the sub-plots involved 0, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 g/l of chitosan. An increase in plant height and leaf length was recorded when the plants were treated with 200 mg/l nano-potassium and 0.75 g/l chitosan. Spraying plants with concentrations of 150 mg/l nano-potassium and 0.75 g/l chitosan is associated with the superiority of S. reginae plants in other traits, such as leaves wide, number of leaves/plant, days to flowering, number of inflorescence/plant, number of florets/inflorescence, stalk length and diameter, inflorescence weight, longevity of inflorescence, and flowering period, compared to the other treatments. We conclude that adding nano-potassium and/or chitosan to the bird of paradise plant leads to an improvement in terms of vegetative and yield characteristics under newly reclaimed lands.

Fig. 15.5
1917 Illaenus caecoides sp. nov.; Reed, p. 45–6, pl. 7, figs 9–10.
Material. Lectotype (selected herein): dorsal exoskeleton, Fig. 15.5 (Reed, 1917, pl. 7, fig. 9), GSI 11898. Additional type material: pygidium (Reed, 1917, pl. 7, fig. 10), GSI 11899. Both specimens from the Shihtien Formation (Darriwilian) at Banpo Village in Shidian County, western Yunnan.
Remarks. We were unable to make a satisfactory cast of the lectotype, and Reed’s original illustration is reproduced here. Although the dorsal exoskeleton is complete it is much abraded. Reed (1917, p. 46) inferred that this was a blind species of “ Illaenus ” but we regard it as more probable that the abrasion of the dorsal surface has removed evidence of the facial sutures and the visual surfaces from a more typical illaenid. If this is so there are very few possible specific characters, and the species will not be recognisable until more collections are made from the type locality.

Figs 14.9, 10
1915 Illaenus aff. portlocki Reed, pl. 7, figs 8,9.
Material. Pygidium from Hwe Maung Beds (uppermost Katian) at Hwe Maung, Fig. 14.9 (Reed, 1915, pl. 7, fig. 8), GSI 11539; cranidium from Upper Naungkangyi Beds at Man Ngai, Fig. 14.10 (Reed, 1915, pl. 7, fig. 9), GSI 11540.
Remarks. These two sclerites may not belong to the same species. The internal mould of the cranidium shows evidence of carrying raised transverse ridges anteriorly which may have been strong on the dorsal surface. The same feature is seen on Illaenus sp. 3 from Yunnan, but not enough is known of either species to prove they are the same species.

Figs 14.8, 11
1917 Illaenus aff. schmidti Nieszkowski 1857; Reed p. 46–7, pl. 7, figs 12,13.
Material. Incomplete cranidium, Fig. 14.11 (Reed, 1917, pl. 7, fig. 13), GSI 11902; pygidium, Fig. 14.8 (Reed, 1917, pl. 7, fig. 12), GSI 11901. Both specimens from Shihtien Formation (Darriwilian) at Banpo Village in Shidian County, Baoshan Prefecture, western Yunnan.
Remarks. This species is represented by an apparently crushed incomplete internal mould of a cranidium, and a pygidium in relief, also lacking the dorsal cuticle. The pygidium has broken to show the upper surface of the doublure, which is wide (sag.) and extends as far as the tip of the acutely triangular, short pygidial axis. A patch of the lower surface of the doublure with terrace ridges is also visible. This structure is typical of Illaenus sensu stricto, but little more can be said about this species.

description: One way to constrain the evolutionary histories of galaxies is to analyse their stellar populations. In the local Universe, our understanding of the stellar population properties of galaxies has traditionally relied on the study of optical absorption and emission-line features. In order to overcome limitations intrinsic to this wavelength range, such as the age-metallicity degeneracy and the high sensitivity to dust reddening, we must use wavelength ranges beyond the optical. The near-infrared (NIR) offers a possibility to extract information on spectral signatures that are not as obvious in traditional optical bands. Moreover, with the current and forthcoming generation of instrumentation focusing on the NIR, it is mandatory to explore possibilities within this wavelength range for nearby-Universe galaxies. However, although the NIR shows great potential, we are only beginning to understand it. Widely used techniques such as a full spectral fitting and line strength indices need to be tested on systems that are as close to simple stellar populations as possible, and the result from the techniques need to be compared to the yields from a traditional optical analysis. We present a NIR spectral survey of extragalactic globular clusters (GCs). The set was composed of 21 GCs from NGC5128 that were obtained with SOAR/TripleSpec4, which covered the ~1.0-2.4$μ$m range with a spectral resolution R=$λ/Δλ$ of 3500. These spectra cover H$β$ equivalent widths between 0.98$Å$ and 4.32$Å$, and [MgFe]' between 0.24$Å$ and 3.76$Å$. This set is ideal for performing absorption band measurements and a full spectral fitting, and it can be used for kinematic studies and age and abundance measurements. With this library, we expect to be able to probe the capabilities of NIR models, as well as to further improve stellar population estimates for the GCs around NGC5128.

Eisenia fetida andrei Bouché, 1972: 381. Eisenia andrei: Sims & Gerard 1999: 79.
Ecology. Epigeic species that is only known from vermicultures of Eisenia fetida (Sims & Gerard 1999). In Croatia it also occurs in dung heaps (Hackenberger Kutuzović & Hackenberger Kutuzović 2013).
Zoogeographical distribution type. Peregrine species that is reported sporadically from Great Britain, Norway, France, Italy and the United States. New record from Croatia (Hackenberger Kutuzović & Hackenberger Kutuzović 2013).
Distribution in Germany. No reference known from the field in the literature, but the species also occurs in German vermicultures (J. Römbke, unpublished data) and is the most-often used species in ecotoxicological test laboratories.
Taxonomic remark. The species was first described as Eisenia foetida var. unicolor by André (1963). Bouché (1972) recognized André's variety as a subspecies and renamed it E. fetida andrei. Based on Jaenike (1982) and Øien & Stenersen (1984), Sims and Gerard (199) considered E. andrei as a species of its own.
