description: After the country's 12th five-year plan, in which cultural industry is defined as one of the pillar industries for the country, China is constructing new museums at an astonishing speed. However, combined with the museum mania is the lack of financial support, collection and most importantly, visitors, among new museums. Thus, how to increase the popularity became a challenge for these museums. With the booming of social media, many museums witnessed the success of social media marketing done by enterprises from many other industries. Therefore, a lot of museums opened their social media account, aiming to gain popularity. By collecting and analyzing data directly from Sina Weibo (Microblog), one of the most popular social media platforms in China, the thesis will explore the effect of Weibo marketing for museums to gain popularity. With the help of API (Application Programming Interface), web scraping and machine learning, it is possible to see directly into the social media data and find out the answer by data-mining methodology.

description: Measurement is our fundamental tool for learning about the world around us. It is from observing trends in measurements that we develop the theories that enable us to predict future behaviour, and it is against measurements that we determine the validity of these theories. Increases in the precision of our measurements are fundamental to our understanding. Atom interferometry is a new method for performing precision measurements that uses the matter-wave nature of atoms to perform interferometry experiments analogous to those performed with photons. However, in contrast to optical interferometry, which uses coherent sources of photons, atom interferometry uses thermal atomic sources, in part due to the unavailability of high-flux coherent atomic sources. Although pulsed coherent atomic sources are presently available, continuous sources are not. Creating a truly continuous coherent source for atoms is tricker than for photons. One of the largest challenges is that atom number is conserved. A source of atoms is therefore necessary to produce a truly continuous atom laser. This source must be used to replenish the lasing mode of the atom laser, and the process must operate without significantly disturbing the coherence properties of the lasing mode. It is this replenishment or pumping process that has been investigated theoretically in this thesis. There are only two choices for the reservoir that makes the replenishment (or pumping) process of an atom laser irreversible: the empty modes of the optical field, and the empty modes of the atomic field. Processes of both forms are considered. Using an optical reservoir has the advantage that atoms are not necessarily lost as part of the pumping process, which is necessary when using an atomic reservoir. The efficiency of processes using an optical reservoir can therefore be higher. Using an atomic reservoir, however, has the advantage that it is easier to implement as one can use the standard experimental technique of evaporation which is commonly used in the production of pulsed coherent atomic sources. We show theoretically in this thesis that although it is possible to produce a continuous atom laser using an atomic reservoir, the flux achieved in the geometry considered is insufficient to compete with pulsed coherent atomic sources for precision measurement. The results for the pumping process using an optical reservoir are more promising. Although condensed sources were used as the source for this process, a detailed comparison of the theoretical calculations and experimental results indicate that the detrimental reabsorption processes are suppressed. This suggests that it may be possible to use higher-flux thermal atomic sources to replenish the lasing mode of an atom laser with this pumping process.

description: Let $f$ be an indefinite ternary quadratic form, and let $q$ be an integer such that $-q det(f)$ is not a square. Let $N(T,f,q)$ denote the number of integral solutions of the equation $f(x)=q$ where $x$ lies in the ball of radius $T$ centered at the origin. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior of $N(T,f,q)$ as $T$ tends to infinity. We deduce from the results of our joint paper with Z. Rudnick that $N(T,f,q)$ grows like cE(T,f,q)$ as $T$ tends to infinity, where $E(T,f,q)$ is the Hardy-Littlewood expectation (the product of local densities) and $0 \le c \le 2$. We give examples of $f$ and $q$ such that $c$ takes the values 0, 1, 2.

description: In this sub-thesis I introduce the idea of Reality Science. Reality science involves the telling of personal stories, such as with autobiography, biography, mentoring, documentaries, profiles and public lectures. The importance of reality science in shaping positive stereotypes and perceptions of science is discussed and ways of approaching reality science is given. Reality science can be used to encourage, inspire and inform people of the various roles scientists play and the diversity of science, breaking down stereotypes and normalising science and scientists. Reality science gives us insight into the minds of the scientists and the nature of the science. They inspire people, inform people and create controversy. Reality science is a tool the contemporary scientist can use to encourage new scientists into their field, inform the public about their research in a less typically scientific manner, and inspire their colleagues to do the same. Reality science can contribute to creating a more accurate public perception of science, as more and more realities will create more relevant stereotypes and bridge the gap by creating dialogues; dialogues between author and audience, and between third parties, depending on the type of reality science used. To demonstrate reality science, an artefact is included. This artefact is in the form of a book, and is entitled Colours of the South. This shows how reality science can be used to break down barriers, create new perceptions and encourage engagement with science.

description: Laboratory testing and medication prescription are two of the most important routines in daily clinical practice. Developing an artificial intelligence system that can automatically make lab test imputations and medication recommendations can save costs on potentially redundant lab tests and inform physicians of a more effective prescription. We present an intelligent medical system (named MedGCN) that can automatically recommend the patients' medications based on their incomplete lab tests, and can even accurately estimate the lab values that have not been taken. In our system, we integrate the complex relations between multiple types of medical entities with their inherent features in a heterogeneous graph. Then we model the graph to learn a distributed representation for each entity in the graph based on graph convolutional networks (GCN). By the propagation of graph convolutional networks, the entity representations can incorporate multiple types of medical information that can benefit multiple medical tasks. Moreover, we introduce a cross regularization strategy to reduce overfitting for multi-task training by the interaction between the multiple tasks. In this study, we construct a graph to associate 4 types of medical entities, i.e., patients, encounters, lab tests, and medications, and applied a graph neural network to learn node embeddings for medication recommendation and lab test imputation. we validate our MedGCN model on two real-world datasets: NMEDW and MIMIC-III. The experimental results on both datasets demonstrate that our model can outperform the state-of-the-art in both tasks. We believe that our innovative system can provide a promising and reliable way to assist physicians to make medication prescriptions and to save costs on potentially redundant lab tests.

description: In a previous article we have shown how one can employ Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in order to solve non-homogeneous ordinary and partial differential equations. In the present work we consider the solution of eigenvalue problems for differential and integrodifferential operators, using ANNs. We start by considering the Schrödinger equation for the Morse potential that has an analytically known solution, to test the accuracy of the method. We then proceed with the Schrödinger and the Dirac equations for a muonic atom, as well as with a non-local Schrödinger integrodifferential equation that models the $n+α$ system in the framework of the resonating group method. In two dimensions we consider the well studied Henon-Heiles Hamiltonian and in three dimensions the model problem of three coupled anharmonic oscillators. The method in all of the treated cases proved to be highly accurate, robust and efficient. Hence it is a promising tool for tackling problems of higher complexity and dimensionality.

description: Significant out-of-pocket spending to afford medications to control blood glucose in elderly people with diabetes is one of the chief challenges to medication adherence. In an effort to reduce the financial burden of prescription drugs on the elderly, Medicare Part D was created and went into effect in 2006. However, one in four Medicare Part D beneficiaries experiences a coverage gap where they must pay 100% of total prescription drug costs. Approximately a quarter of those individuals discontinued their drugs when they reached the coverage gap. Currently, with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, the coverage gap will be eliminated by 2020.
      This dissertation examines which factors affect medication adherence in adults with diabetes (Aim 1) and whether the recent policy effort of Medicare Part D effectively decreases the financial burden of prescription drugs on the elderly with diabetes (Aim 2).
      Chapter One provides the significance of out-of-pocket costs for medication adherence in elderly individuals with diabetes as well as background information on Medicare Part D and its coverage gap. Chapter Two reviews the literature to synthesize current knowledge that has informed the methodology for this dissertation. This chapter also identifies gaps in this body of work. These include comparing advantages and disadvantages of medication adherence as measured by patient self-report, pharmacy refills, and electronic lids on medication containers. Two systematic reviews are conducted in order to determine the most commonly used measurements and definitions of medication adherence measured by pharmacy claims data, and to identify barriers to and facilitators of medication adherence among adult diabetes patients. Lastly, previous studies that focused on the impact of Medicare Part D and its coverage gap on out-of-pocket pharmacy costs and medication adherence are reviewed. Chapter Three describes the methodologies to address Aims 1 and 2 including the study design, information on the data source, sample descriptions, a conceptual framework, study variables and analytic plans. Chapter Four presents key findings of this study, and Chapter Five concludes with summaries and interpretations of the findings, implications for practice and policy, and recommendations for future research.
Strong coupling theory of the interlayer tunneling model for high temperature superconductors

Year: 1996

description: The interlayer pair tunneling model of Anderson et al. is generalized to include the strong coupling effects associated with in-plane interactions. The equations for the superconducting transition temperature T_{c} are solved numerically for several models of electron-optical phonon coupling. The nonmagnetic in-plane impurity scattering suppresses T_{c} in all cases considered, and it is possible to obtain a fair agreement with experiments for a reasonable choice of parameters. For the anisotropic electron-phonon coupling proposed by Song and Annett we find that the interlayer pair tunneling can stabilize the d_{x^2-y^2}-wave superconducting state with a high T_{c}. Moreover, in this case there is a possibility of an impurity induced crossover from the d$_{x^2-y^2}$-wave state stabilized by the interlayer tunneling to the s-wave state at a low impurity concentration. We also calculate the isotope effect associated with the in-plane oxygen optic mode and its dependence on the strength of the interlayer pair tunneling. Small positive values of the isotope exponent are obtained for strengths of pair tunneling that give high transition temperatures.

description: Home sharing platforms have been creating a disturbance to existing rules and balances in rental housing market by expanding the use of traditional rental apartments as places for tourist, by facilitating the conversion of long-term apartment to short-term rentals, and by providing the way for landlords to capture full market values with their properties. The alternation of dynamics among stakeholders in rental housing market triggered a huge debate.
In determining whether a home sharing platform affecting on the rental housing market in New York City, this paper tested if Airbnb units take rental units off, increase rents, exacerbate rent burdens on renter population, and cause renter evictions by using difference-in-differences methodology which looks at values in two different neighborhood groups in two different time periods.
The result showed that the home sharing platform did not have significant influence upon New York CityUs rental housing affordability nor showed any evidence of causing renter evictions. Even though numbers do not support the existing arguments, things can be interpreted differently by adding different contexts in the housing market. The number of Airbnb units and duration of the Airbnb effect may not be yet reached to the point where it starts to effect on rental housing market and cancels out other factors that effects on the market. Further studies are necessary in the future to capture its impact on rental housing market.
Impact of a Coping Model on Novice Learners’ Self-efficacy, Science Learning, and Transfer in a Simulation-based Environment

description: Scientific expertise requires concerted effort and the ability to overcome obstacles, but little research has addressed how these behaviors are modeled for learners in the context of simulation-based science learning. Thus, this study aimed to design instruction using cognitive modeling to promote active engagement by novice learners to ensure they feel competent to tackle novel learning problems in science. Largely drawing on work on social cognitive theory, the current study suggests the importance of a coping model, having incorrect knowledge and inadequate skills and gradually improving to a level of expertise, as an instructional aid to promote student motivation and learning in a simulation-based science learning environment.
      Two experimental studies were conducted with high school students in Korea who did not possess prior knowledge. Study 1 compared a Coping Model (CM) condition, where students observed a peer model who makes errors and demonstrates initial difficulties but overcomes them, to a Mastery Model (MM) condition, where students observed a peer model who presents an error-free process of interpreting information while manipulating the simulation. The CM students tended to have higher post-self-efficacy than the MM students. However, it did not change over time, nor did it differ by condition. The CM was as effective as MM for learning gains, and the CM had a more favorable impact on transfer than the MM. The CM’s negative emotions, which was intended to indicate task difficulties, may have given students an impression that the task was difficult, resulting in no increase in self-efficacy over time. Thus, Study 2 added one more condition – a coping model with affective states (CMA) – that expressed the model’s changes in emotions and motivations in addition to what the CM demonstrated, and compared its effects to the CM and MM. The CM’s emotional expressions as in Study 1 were all removed in Study 2. Findings demonstrated that self-efficacy of students increased in the CMA and CM conditions over time while self-efficacy of the MM students did not. Students in all conditions demonstrated equal learning gains, but the CMA was more effective for transfer outcomes than the MM, and the CM tended to be more effective for transfer than the MM.
      It is promising that a model who demonstrates difficulty in understanding but gradual progress to reach full understanding, which is the initial learning process of any novice, has potential to improve self-efficacy and promote transfer. The study discusses limitations and future study directions and concludes with implications for instructional design.

Regional variation in the lexicon of Australian English

Subjects: dialect, Australian English, lexicon, regional variation, language map

description: This is the first study of regional lexical variation in Australian English. It explores the existence, nature and history of regional lexical variation in Australian English. Before it was undertaken, only a few examples of regional lexical items were known, and no systematic attempt had been made to discover whether there were patterns of regional distribution. The survey covers the whole country in order to find the location and extent of the usage regions. The work has been carried out within the framework of dialectology, and while constraints of finance and resources led to some innovations in methodology, the findings are comparable with findings in other countries. The major part of the work gives a synchronic picture of regional lexical use in Australia in the late 1980s. It finds that there are four major lexical usage regions in Australia, two of which have two sub-regions, as well as minor sub-regions and local regions. The survey results are presented on both raw data and interpretive maps. There are two classes of regional words in Australia – elective regional words and obligatory regional words. Hence there are two types of regional distribution patterns. A diachronic study uses historical and lexical evidence to evaluate and expand on theories on the origins of Australian English, and to trace the development of the uniformity and the regional diversity of the language. Evidence, both direct and deduced, is produced that the use of regionalisms arose early in the development of the language. The findings of the survey add to the world-wide body of empirical data on regional language varieties, and allow comparisons to be made with the nature of regional variation in other countries.

description: Subway has advantages of large capacity, fast speed, punctuality, less pollution, low energy consumption and so on. It has become a chief means of public transportation and an important approach to solve the traffic problems in big cities. The purpose of this research is to investigate the impacts of the new subway lines (Line 1 and Line 2) in Zhengzhou on adjacent migrant neighborhoods. To study the impacts of Zhengzhou subway system, I conducted door-to-door surveys and interviews on household level in the two target communities (West Guanhutun and Yanzhuang). The major findings of this research reveal the negative impact of the subway system on migrant neighborhoods. The introduction of subway system in Zhengzhou provided more commute options, but since the two lines have not formed a mature subway network, the subway did not significantly shorten local residents’ commute time. Meanwhile, though the emergence of subway system brought added value to surrounding properties, the rapid increase in rent aggravated migrants’ living burden and further led to shifts in property use and local demographic composition. The vulnerability of migrant group is rooted in China’s household registration system, and connected with local development policies. The findings of this research show the importance of taking minority group’s voice into policy-making process and would be helpful for future development of metro system in the city.

description: In stochastic thermodynamics work is a random variable whose average is bounded by the change in the free energy of the system. In most treatments, however, the work reservoir that absorbs this change is either tacitly assumed or modelled using unphysical systems with unbounded Hamiltonians (i.e. the ideal weight). In this work we describe the consequences of introducing the ground state of the battery and hence -- of breaking its translational symmetry. The most striking consequence of this shift is the fact that the Jarzynski identity is replaced by a family of inequalities. Using these inequalities we obtain corrections to the second law of thermodynamics which vanish exponentially with the distance of the initial state of the battery to the bottom of its spectrum. Finally, we study an exemplary thermal operation which realizes the approximate Landauer erasure and demonstrate the consequences which arise when the ground state of the battery is explicitly introduced. In particular, we show that occupation of the vacuum state of any physical battery sets a lower bound on fluctuations of work, while batteries without vacuum state allow for fluctuation-free erasure.

description: This thesis examines the discursive influence of women’s movement activity in New Zealand and Australia from 1970 to 2000. The aim is to further understanding about how and when social movements influence cultural norms and reframe public policy. While there exists extensive sociological research into the conditions under which social movements emerge in societies, there is little empirical research into the effect of these phenomena. Similarly, the influence of social movements is under-researched within political science literature, where the focus has been on the impact of formal actors such as political parties and interest groups. Textual analysis is applied to public debate around the issues of childcare and unpaid work in Australia and New Zealand over a 30-year period. The four in-depth case studies identify the number and prevalence of discourses used in policy debates and the coalitions that defend these differing narratives. The analysis of discourses and coalition shows that women’s movement activity brought changes to policy discourse in New Zealand and Australia. This influence, however, was often only partial. ‘Radical’ messages put forward by social movements hindered their discursive influence in the political realm and the attempts of the Australasian women’s movements to alter policy debates were negatively affected by the introduction of neo-liberal narratives. Also limiting the impact of movement activity were the discursive legacies found in each of the policy debates, the type of alliances built by grass-roots activists, and the power of entrenched political elites. The analysis shows that messages challenging the status quo will alter the way policy is discussed in society, but at the same time processes of political debate will modify the messages advanced by social movements.

description: We study the effect of fluctuations on the {\bf ac} conductivity of a layered superconductor both for $c$-axis and $ab$-plane electromagnetic wave polarizations. The fluctuation contributions of different physical nature and signs (paraconductivity, Maki-Thompson anomalous contribution, one-electron density of states renormalization) are found to be suppressed by the external field at different characterisitic frequencies ($ ω_{\rm AL}\sim T-T_{\rm c}$, $ω_{\rm MT} \sim \max\{ T-T_{\rm c}, τ_φ^{-1}\}$, $ ω_{\rm DOS} \sim \min\{T,τ^{-1}\}$ for the $2D$ case). As a result the appearance of the nonmonotonic frequency dependence (pseudogap) in the infrared optical conductivity of HTS film is predicted. The effect has to be especially pronounced in the case of the electromagnetic field polarization along $c$-axis.

description: Conferencia invitada en las IX Jornadas Internacionales de Campus Virtuales, celebradas en Popayán (Colombia) del 11 al 13 de Septiembre de 2019. Se plantea el reto al que se enfrentan las universidades presenciales, especialmente las públicas, para afrontar cómo introducir la formación virtual en sus procesos formativos basados en las clases presenciales. Las universidades presenciales no tienen que volverse de la noche a la mañana universidades virtuales, pero si que deben comenzar a introducir oferta formativa no presencial, ya sea completamente online o semipresencial. Para poder llevar a cabo este proceso, que debe estar integrado en su política de transformación digital, las universidades deben definir una estrategia y un modelo de formación no presencial que se alinea una redefinición y una actualización de su misión y de su visión, sin caer en un deterioro de la calidad del proceso de enseñanza/aprendizaje y sin perder de vista un comportamiento ético de todos los actores. En este sentido, y con base al trabajo realizado en la Universidad de Salamanca, se introducen las bases de un modelo para la docencia virtual que pueda ser adoptado y adaptado por cualquier institución universitaria que quiere afrontar este reto.
The reflection-antisymmetric counterpart of the Kármán-Howarth dynamical equation

description: We study the isotropic, helical component in homogeneous turbulence using statistical objects which have the correct symmetry and parity properties. Using these objects we derive an analogue of the Kármán-Howarth equation, that arises due to parity violation in isotropic flows. The main equation we obtain is consistent with the results of O. Chkhetiani [JETP, 63, 768, (1996)] and V.S. L'vov et al. [chao-dyn/9705016, (1997)] but is derived using only velocity correlations, with no direct consideration of the vorticity or helicity. This alternative formulation offers an advantage to both experimental and numerical measurements. We also postulate, under the assumption of self-similarity, the existence of a hierarchy of scaling exponents for helical velocity correlation functions of arbitrary order, analogous to the Kolmogorov 1941 prediction for the scaling exponents of velocity structure function.

description: High Speed Railways (HSR) is regarded as the main tool for achieving redistribution of population and economic activities in mainland China. With precedent success in many countries, the HSR are expected to have advantages of reducing transport cost and improving inter-city connection, which would provide great developing opportunities for cities have HSR station construction. However, many small and middle cities along HSR that planned station new town resulted in "ghost city", while the metropolitan central cities are becoming more and more crowded. That is to say, the economic impact of HSR is different on cities according to their developing degree. Because of the regional imbalance and disparity of market size between metropolitan central cities and periphery cities in China, population and economic activities would shift to larger market with reducing transportation cost by HSR.
This paper discusses economic impacts HSR on cities based on the empirical study of Wuhan-Guangzhou HSR. A prospective analysis investigating the case shows the differentiation in urban population and economic development related to developing degree of cities along HSR. Reminding the fact that not all cities could benefit from the HSR project, small and middle cities which connected to the metropolitan central cities are actually the most vulnerable group. Helping these authorities making right developing strategy for HSR.
Avalanches and Waves in the Abelian Sandpile Model

description: We numerically study avalanches in the two dimensional Abelian sandpile model in terms of a sequence of waves of toppling events. Priezzhev et al [PRL 76, 2093 (1996)] have recently proposed exact results for the critical exponents in this model based on the existence of a proposed scaling relation for the difference in sizes of subsequent waves, $Δs =s_{k}- s_{k+1}$, where the size of the previous wave $s_{k}$ was considered to be almost always an upper bound for the size of the next wave $s_{k+1}$. Here we show that the significant contribution to $Δs$ comes from waves that violate the bound; the average $$ is actually negative and diverges with the system size, contradicting the proposed solution.

description: Public participation in the environmental issues is gradually becoming a part in institutional and policy design in China. In practice, however, its implementation and enforcement cannot be guaranteed for various reasons. Under an unsound participatory mechanism, environmental mass incidents represent an extreme form of environmental public participation. The study evaluates the impacts of environmental mass incidents by comparing three representative cases. Four dimensions are emphasized in this study, including: (1) the nature and benefits of the infrastructure projects, (2) the causes of the environmental mass incidents, (3) the primary players leading the environmental mass incidents and their performance, and (4) the media's role. Overall, the decision makers are supposed to adaptively empower people through public participation in environmental decision-making, and to achieve a balance between concessions and control.
Relativistic dispersion relation and putative metric structure in noncommutative phase-space

description: The deformation of the relativistic dispersion relation caused by noncommutative (NC) Quantum Mechanics (QM) is studied using the extended phase-space formalism. The introduction of the additional commutation relations induces Lorentz invariance violation. It is shown that this deformation does not affect the propagation speed of free massless particles. From the deformation of the dispersion relation for massless particles, gamma ray burst data is used to establish an upper bound on the noncommutative parameter, $η$, namely $\sqrtη \lesssim 10^{-12} \,\mathrm{eV/c}$. Additionally, a putative metric structure for the noncommutative phase-space is discussed.

description: In the context of the rapid development of the cultivation of genetically modified soybeans in Argentina, we conduct a hedonic analysis of agricultural land values. The main objective is to evaluate the impact of land tenure systems and agricultural practices on these values. Data on 338 parcels, located in the Pampas region, are analyzed. The tenure appears to be a particularly important variable. We find that plots rented either by physical persons or by companies are negatively valued in relation to plots owned. Results also highlight the importance, though not to a large degree, of a diversified cropping pattern compared to soybean monoculture. Soil quality, location of the plots, distance to markets, as well as to the nearest city, were also found to affect land values.
