description: This thesis contributes to the scholarly understanding of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah and the role these Muslim organisations perform in the political socialisation of Islam through their affiliated pesantren (Islamic boarding schools). The study has a regional focus, concentrating on two case studies, both in Lamongan, East Java; Pesantren Sunan Drajat represents the NU pesantren system, and Pesantren Karangasem portraying the Muhammadiyah version of pesantren. Bourdieu’s concepts regarding habitus, field, symbolic capital, symbolic power, and symbolic violence are used to examine the pesantren system and the way it reproduces socio-religious identity through the values that santri (students) acquire. Moreover, this study looks at how pesantren and their kyai (headmasters) have influenced the political culture of the umat (religious community). Participant observation provided a detailed insight into the pesantren system, which was complemented with empirical data from election results and a survey to assess the voting habits of Lamongan residents. The development of political Islam in Lamongan is tied to the history of Islam and the strong pesantren culture in the district. This resulted in the popularity of the Islamic political parties and parties that promote Muslim identity, including Masyumi and the NU party at the 1955 general election; the United Development Party (Partai Persatuan Pembangunan, PPP) during the Suharto regime (1966-1998); and the National Awakening Party (Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa, PKB) and National Mandate Party (Partai Amanat Nasional, PAN) in the post-Suharto era. Pesantren Sunan Drajat educates its santri to be obedient, and its headmaster demands the community faithful follow his guidance in supporting political candidates that defend the interests of NU. Pesantren Karangasem on the other hand teaches its santri to think critically, but the school’s educators encourage their followers to support cadres that represent the Muhammadiyah constituency. Although people consider the opinions of their local kyai, people are not subservient to their political instructions. Despite this, NU and Muhammadiyah identity remains a salient influence on voters in Lamongan. However, political disunity among NU figures has increased the electoral appeal of the Muhammadiyah candidates, particularly in elections for district head (pemilihan kepala daerah, Pilkada).

Patterns in the decline of granivorous birds in the Northern Australian savannas
Creators: name: Franklin, Donald
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University
Year: 1998

description: Several granivorous bird species of the northern Australian savannas are known to be threatened and others are suspected to have declined. However, for most species there is little documented evidence such that the generality of the problem is uncertain, and the mechanism(s) for change are unclear. In this thesis, I seek to determine the taxonomic and geographic scope of the problem and identify ecological, spatial and temporal patterns of decline which may shed light on its causes. To do this, I compiled a database of over 60,000 historic records of granivorous birds, which I analysed for changes in distribution and reporting rates. Analyses of reporting rates were controlled for historic shifts in the geographic distribution of records, and for change in search effort. To provide context for these analyses, I also examined biogeographic patterning in the Australian granivorous bird fauna using data from the Atlas of Australian Birds. The granivorous bird assemblages of the northern Australian savannas are diverse. They are especially rich in terrestrial-foraging finches and pigeons, but support few arboreal-foraging species. Rates of regional endemism are particularly high, and many of the endemics have restricted distributions within the savannas. At least twenty of fifty-nine species have changed in abundance since European settlement, and most of these (17 species) have declined. Declining species share a marked propensity to forage exclusively on the ground or amongst herbage, but all increasing species and many species for which no change in abundance was demonstrated also share this habit. Decline has been most severe in central Queensland; moderately severe through much of the remainder of Queensland(excepting Cape York Peninsula) and in inland areas of Western Australia and the Northern Territory; and least in the north Kimberley, the Tiwi Islands and eastern Arnhem Land. In southern and central Queensland, the only part of northern Australian savannas subject to extensive clearing of native vegetation, the decline of granivorous birds was associated with the pastoral era prior to the commencement of clearing. The northern savannas have suffered a major loss of biodiversity. Its causes are unclear, but are probably related to the direct or indirect impacts of pastoralism and the loss of Aboriginal landscape burning on food resources. Further research is required to determine its causes and develop management strategies.

description: Stance detection is the view towards a specific target by a given context (\textit{e.g.} tweets, commercial reviews). Target-related knowledge is often needed to assist stance detection models in understanding the target well and making detection correctly. However, prevailing works for knowledge-infused stance detection predominantly incorporate target knowledge from a singular source that lacks knowledge verification in limited domain knowledge. The low-resource training data further increases the challenge for the data-driven large models in this task. To address those challenges, we propose a collaborative knowledge infusion approach for low-resource stance detection tasks, employing a combination of aligned knowledge enhancement and efficient parameter learning techniques. Specifically, our stance detection approach leverages target background knowledge collaboratively from different knowledge sources with the help of knowledge alignment. Additionally, we also introduce the parameter-efficient collaborative adaptor with a staged optimization algorithm, which collaboratively addresses the challenges associated with low-resource stance detection tasks from both network structure and learning perspectives. To assess the effectiveness of our method, we conduct extensive experiments on three public stance detection datasets, including low-resource and cross-target settings. The results demonstrate significant performance improvements compared to the existing stance detection approaches.

description: South Africa was under apartheid regime from 1948 up until 1990, when apartheid was ousted by the release of Nelson Mandela. At this, power was granted to majority Black and Nelson Mandela became the leader in 1994. South Africa was thus declared a free nation devoid of apartheid and any kind of discrimination. But this was just a political emancipation without economic authority. This paper thus depicts South Africa as suffering double violence both at the apartheid regime and the post-apartheid period as she wobbles among apartheid structures in this post-apartheid era. Vutha, Noria’s son, a child of ‘Immaculate Conception’, who suffers double death and violence, represents South Africa during apartheid hegemony and the post-apartheid South Africa in the hands of majority rule, where the apartheid strictures transform into the post-apartheid era. This develops into a dichotomy of binaries metamorphosed into a continuity of the past in the present.

description: The mainstream paradigm of speech emotion recognition (SER) is identifying the single emotion label of the entire utterance. This line of works neglect the emotion dynamics at fine temporal granularity and mostly fail to leverage linguistic information of speech signal explicitly. In this paper, we propose Emotion Neural Transducer for fine-grained speech emotion recognition with automatic speech recognition (ASR) joint training. We first extend typical neural transducer with emotion joint network to construct emotion lattice for fine-grained SER. Then we propose lattice max pooling on the alignment lattice to facilitate distinguishing emotional and non-emotional frames. To adapt fine-grained SER to transducer inference manner, we further make blank, the special symbol of ASR, serve as underlying emotion indicator as well, yielding Factorized Emotion Neural Transducer. For typical utterance-level SER, our ENT models outperform state-of-the-art methods on IEMOCAP in low word error rate. Experiments on IEMOCAP and the latest speech emotion diarization dataset ZED also demonstrate the superiority of fine-grained emotion modeling.

description: Objective: This article examines the effects of fatigue on driving performance under different roadway geometries using a driving simulator.Methods: Twenty-four participants each completed a driving scenario twice: while alert and while experiencing fatigue. The driving scenario was composed of straight road segments and curves; there were 6 curves with 3 radius values (i.e., 200, 500, and 800 m) and 2 turning directions (i.e., left and right). Analysis was conducted on driving performance measures such as longitudinal speed, steering wheel movements, and lateral position.Results: Results confirmed that decremental changes in driving performance due to fatigue varied among road conditions. On straight segments, drivers’ abilities to steer and maintain lane position were impaired, whereas on curves we found decremental changes in the quality of longitudinal speed as well as steering control and keeping the vehicle in the lane. Moreover, the effects of fatigue on driving performance were relative to the radius and direction of the curve. Fatigue impaired drivers’ abilities to control the steering wheel, and the impairment proved more obvious on curves. The degree varied significantly as the curve radius changed. Drivers tended to drive closer to the right side due to fatigue, and the impairment in maintaining lane position became more obvious as the right-turn curve radius decreased.Conclusions: Driver fatigue has detrimental effects on driving performance, and the effects differ under different roadway geometries.

description: Using Cultural-Historical Activity Theory, we analyze lecturers’ views on the aims and teaching practices of mathematical modelling (MM) education in Norway and England. We aim to expose the tensions that exist within the activity of teaching MM at university, such as those between multiple, sometimes competing, aims for teaching MM, or between the lecturers’ professional identities and the structure of university degrees. Our conceptualization of these tensions might help lecturers consider how to overcome obstacles in their own contexts.

description: The viscosities of molten alkali fluorides (LiF, NaF, KF, RbF, and CsF) were measured at temperatures 373.15 K above the melting point. The viscosity has been measured by using a high-temperature oscillating viscometer modified so as to be able to determine the period and logarithmic decrement from the observed intervals between times when the oscillation passes two deflection angles and automatically calculate the viscosity. The data obtained were discussed in terms of viscous flow theory in ionic liquids. New data regarding the configurational changes in alkali fluoride ionic melts were obtained.

description: The synthesis and solvent extraction behavior of dipicolinic acid (pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, PDCA) and their derivatives have been studied for possible use in selective back-extraction of actinides, especially americium. The extraction was performed from an organic phase containing a mixture of trivalent actinides and lanthanides pre-extracted with N,N,N’,N’-tetraoctyl diglycolamide (TODGA). The efficiency of the back-extraction was enhanced when the picolinate platform was used in a heterocyclic decadentate ligand called h4tpaen. Beyond selective An/Ln extraction, the aqueous soluble h4tpaen ligand seemed a potential reagent for an intra-group Am(III)/Cm(III) separation with a separation factor SFCm/Am of about 3.5.

description: This thesis presents a comprehensive analysis of the gambling activities of Aboriginal people living in remote areas of the Northern Territory, Australia. Extended fieldwork was carried out in the remote community of Maningrida, Arnhem Land. The research focused on card games played in the community. In addition, research was conducted in a large urban gambling venue in Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory, that examined remote Aboriginal people’s access to, and use of, poker machines (electronic gaming machines). The findings describe complex social, economic and political processes at work within both community card games and the urban gambling venue from an anthropological perspective. The findings suggest that Aboriginal people in Maningrida benefit socially, economically and politically through membership in the informal regulatory structures that existed within card games. However, the community also identified problems relating to card games, particularly in relation to the impact of card games on children. This research also found that, although playing poker machines in an urban gambling environment was an activity that remote Aboriginal people engaged in and enjoyed, it did not offer the same social and economic opportunities as card games. There was a distinct reliance on social relationships within the urban gambling venue,and the efforts and attempts made by people to continue to gamble in groups (despite the individualised nature of poker machines) was significant. Aside from winning a large sum of money, the economic benefits for remote Aboriginal people attending the venue were minimal. The information gathered through this fieldwork has significant implications in terms of the development of relevant harm-minimisation strategies. Finally, the research found that the Aboriginal people involved in this research defined ‘problem gambling’ differently from mainstream definitions. The research found that Aboriginal people defined ‘problem gambling’ as a person neglecting or rejecting social relationships and obligations as a result of gambling. The findings from this research identify a significant need for the development of a national strategy in Australia to address the issues that Aboriginal people face in relation to gambling.

Starting with solutions for micromachining we present high-NA microscope objectives creating sub-wavelength material modifications on macroscopic scales with highest peak intensities. Moving on to the millimeter range, the adaptability and scalability of scanning optics is examined for large-area machining. Finally, we explore line beam optics in the meter range, evaluating their use in uniform material processing using average powers above 100kW. This study provides an insight into the design and performance characteristics of such optics and demonstrates their potential in advanced laser processing.

Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University

description: Timor-Leste is a post-conflict nation with multiple administrative regimes that each contribute different social, cultural, economic and political legacies. The country’s 2010 census indicated that there had been rapid growth of the rural population (71%) during the previous five years (Timor-Leste Household Census 2010, p. 2).Creating viable economic conditions is critical to preventing poverty and urbanisation, which can lead to social and economic problems. The Timorese Government has developed a Strategic Development Plan (SDP) with a clear vision for 2030. The SDP outlines a goal whereby the traditional rural economy will be transformed into a diversified economy, with an emphasis on exporting, by 2030 (Government of Timor-Leste 2011, p. 195).The plan also foresees the possibility of establishing a special economic zone with the long-term purpose of promoting job creation, enabling foreign exchange earnings, increasing foreign direct investment, increasing access to markets, and enabling a higher level of skills to compete in international market. The purpose of this research was to assess which factors could determine the establishment of a special economic zone in Timor-Leste by taking into account the private sector perspective. Using qualitative research methods, this study gathered data from both primary and secondary sources. The study used questionnaires and direct interviews with government officials and private sector representatives in order to answer the research question: what are the determinant factors for the establishment of a special economic zone in Timor-Leste?

description: Knowledge of seismic velocities in the seismogenic part of subduction zones can reveal how material properties may influence large ruptures. Observations of aftershocks that followed the 2010 Mw 8.8 Maule, Chile earthquake provide an exceptional dataset to examine the physical properties of a megathrust rupture zone. We manually analysed aftershocks from onshore seismic stations and ocean bottom seismometers to derive a 3-D velocity model of the rupture zone using local earthquake tomography. From the trench to the magmatic arc, our velocity model illuminates the main features within the subduction zone. We interpret an east-dipping high P-wave velocity anomaly (>6.9 km/s) as the subducting oceanic crust and a low P-wave velocity (<6.25 km/s) in the marine forearc as the accretionary complex. We find two large P-wave velocity anomalies (∼7.8 km/s) beneath the coastline. These velocities indicate an ultramafic composition, possibly related to extension and a mantle upwelling during the Triassic. We assess the role played by physical heterogeneity in governing megathrust behaviour. Greatest slip during the Maule earthquake occurred in areas of moderate P-wave velocity (6.5–7.5 km/s), where the interface is structurally more uniform. At shallow depths, high fluid pressure likely influenced the up-dip limit of seismic activity. The high velocity bodies lie above portions of the plate interface where there was reduced coseismic slip and minimal postseismic activity. The northern velocity anomaly may have acted as a structural discontinuity within the forearc, influencing the pronounced crustal seismicity in the Pichilemu region. Our work provides evidence for how the ancient geological structure of the forearc may influence the seismic behaviour of subduction megathrusts.

description: Deep Neural Networks (DNN) are core components for classification and regression tasks of many software systems. Companies incur in high costs for testing DNN with datasets representative of the inputs expected in operation, as these need to be manually labelled. The challenge is to select a representative set of test inputs as small as possible to reduce the labelling cost, while sufficing to yield unbiased high-confidence estimates of the expected DNN accuracy. At the same time, testers are interested in exposing as many DNN mispredictions as possible to improve the DNN, ending up in the need for techniques pursuing a threefold aim: small dataset size, trustworthy estimates, mispredictions exposure. This study presents DeepSample, a family of DNN testing techniques for cost-effective accuracy assessment based on probabilistic sampling. We investigate whether, to what extent, and under which conditions probabilistic sampling can help to tackle the outlined challenge. We implement five new sampling-based testing techniques, and perform a comprehensive comparison of such techniques and of three further state-of-the-art techniques for both DNN classification and regression tasks. Results serve as guidance for best use of sampling-based testing for faithful and high-confidence estimates of DNN accuracy in operation at low cost.

description: Twenty-two native Croatian grapevine varieties representing three different growing and climatic regions (Dalmatia, Istria, continental Croatia) have been genotyped at nine SSR loci. The identical genotypes of the Croatian cultivars Plavina and Brajdica confirmed the hypothesis they are the same variety. Comparing the SSR profiles of the Croatian cultivars with the profiles stored in a database containing about 300 European cultivars, further three pairs of synonyms were revealed: Teran Bijeli shares its genotype with the Italian cultivar Prosecco, Muskat Ruza Porecki corresponds to cv. Rosenmuskateller from North Italy and Moslavac is identical to the Hungarian variety Furmint. The microsatellite-based definitions of these synonyms are strongly supported by ampelographic observations. The genetic variability within the investigated Croatian cultivars was high with a genetic diversity of 75 %. A dendrogram based on allele sharing distances reflected neither common morphological features nor common geographic origins of the cultivars.

The effect of rotavirus vaccination on hospitalisations for gastroenteritis in the Northern Territory of Australia
Creators: name: Snelling, Thomas
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University
Year: 2011

description: Young Indigenous children living in remote central and northern Australia suffer a heavy burden of rotavirus and other diarrhoeal diseases. In October 2006, the human rotavirus vaccine (Rotarix™, GSK) was introduced into the routine vaccination schedule for all Northern Territory (NT) infants. The studies in this thesis aim to evaluate the impact of rotavirus vaccination in the NT on serious (hospitalised) disease in children. Active hospital-based surveillance was undertaken for two years at both major hospitals in the NT in order to ascertain hospitalisations for gastroenteritis and to assemble a control-cohort of children admitted with respiratory symptoms. Children were tested for rotavirus by enzyme immunoassay (EIA), and tested for other enteric pathogens using a combination of microscopy, culture and molecular methods. A case-cohort analysis was used to determine the effectiveness of rotavirus vaccination against hospitalisation for gastroenteritis. The results were validated using a conventional hospital-based case-control analysis, and also a cohort analysis nested within the Northern Territory Immunisation Register (NTIR). Over the study period, 479 hospitalisations for gastroenteritis were ascertained, of which 132 were rotavirus-confirmed. This included 71 (54%) mixed infections which were also positive for a non-rotavirus pathogen. By the primary analysis, vaccine effectiveness (VE) was 59% (95%CI: 30 to 76%) against hospitalisations for rotavirus-confirmed gastroenteritis and 29.4% (95%CI: -4.3 to 52.3) against all-cause gastroenteritis. VE point estimates were lower among older children and against mixed infections. Estimates based on the case-control and register cohort analyses were similar. Rotavirus vaccination prevents hospitalisation in this setting, especially among young infants who are most susceptible to severe disease. However VE is lower than reported elsewhere in the developed world. The finding of reduced effectiveness among older children infected with heterotypic rotavirus strains and among children co-infected with non-rotavirus enteric pathogens, may provide an insight into the mechanisms underlying vaccine failure in high burden settings. Further reduction of the total burden of diarrhoeal disease in the NT is likely to require both improved vaccination strategies as well as basic improvements in hygiene, sanitation, and housing.

description: A population of Vitis vinifera L. seedlings deriving from a single self-pollinated Sangiovese vine were assayed for diversity by ampelographic and genetic techniques. After field-transplantation in 1987, the seedlings were initially screened in 1995. Twenty-four seedlings were of standard Vigour and grape production. Woody cuttings from the 24 seedlings and the mother plant were self-rooted in 1995, and each Vine was morphologically analysed and compared in 1997 using 31 descriptors of the ampelographic data sheet (OIV 1983) which are also recommended by UPOV for varietal identification - three for young shoots, 7 for shoots at bloom, 17 for adult leaves, one for flowers and 3 for berries. - In 1996 DNA was extracted from young apical leaves of the mother plant and the 24 seedlings. Ten molecular microsatellites, VVS1, VVS2, VVS5, VVS16, VVS29, VVMD5, VVMD6, VVMD7, VVMD17 and VVMD28, were used for progeny and mother plant comparison. The descriptor-based analysis showed that 12 of the 24 seedlings were morphologically similar amongst themselves and not different fr-om the mother; the remaining 12 differing from each other and from the parent. The microsatellite analysis differentiated all 24 seedlings from the mother plant. Only two seedlings showed the same allele patterns at the 10 tested loci, although they differed morphologically. The results of both analyses indicate that self-pollination can generate phenotypically similar individuals that are difficult to distinguish morphologically, while their genetic polymorphism can easily be detected by microsatellite analysis. Thus it is possible, as suggested by RIVES (1961), that certain ancient cultivars comprise a number of clones that derive via vegetative propagation from closely related mother plants. Corroboration of the polyclonal origin in such cases can be performed by techniques combining morphological and molecular approaches.

Modular Reasoning in Aspect-Oriented Languages

description: This PhD thesis presents an approach that enables modular reasoning in aspect-oriented programming languages. Contributions: Chapter 2 - The syntax and semantics of ContractAJ, a minimal aspect-oriented language with support for contracts. Chapter 3 - A two-part approach to enable modular reasoning in ContractAJ: First, if the advice substitution principle is satisfied, obliviousness can be preserved without causing surprising behaviour. Second, if it is necessary to become aware of an advice, a simple specification clause can be used to restore modular reasoning. Chapter 4 - Static and dynamic contract enforcement tools to ensure our approach to modular reasoning is used correctly. Chapter 5 - A compositional may/must analysis to infer frame conditions, which describe which variables will remain unchanged in a method/advice. This analysis is used to study existing AspectJ applications to determine how often advice modify more variables than allowed by modular reasoning.
Elliptic Fourier Analysis (EFA) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for the identification of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) genotypes
Creators: name: Mancuso, S.
Publisher: name: VITIS - Journal of Grapevine Research

description: The potential application of the Elliptic Fourier Analysis (EFA) for the objective quantitative description of leaf morphology, combined with the use of a Back-propagation Neural Network (BPNN) for data modelling, was evaluated to characterize and identifiy 12 Sangiovese-related accessions (Vitis vinifera L.). The results enable us to distinguish, with considerable certainty, between 10 accessions. Cluster analysis revealed the existence of a uniform group for the Prugnolo (acerbo, medio and dolce) ecotypes showing a high degree of relatedness. Among all accessions only the so-called Casentino ecotype significantly diverged from all the others, indicating probably a different origin. The application of EFA coupled with the use of artificial neural networks opens interesting prospects for the characterization of varieties, allowing to study differences and/or relationships which can not be detected by standard ampelographic systems.
