description: Hospital Acquired Pressure Injuries (HAPI) adversely affect patient outcomes, increase health care costs, and despite considerable efforts to avoid, are increasing among critically ill patients. Many factors contribute to the development and advancement of pressure injuries in acute and critical care settings. Manual assessment tools, such as the Braden Scale, are currently utilized to predict HAPIs. This project aims to generate a model to predict HAPIs with better accuracy than the Braden Scale using a machine learning approach. Data sets were developed so predictions could be made after 48-hours from admission and 72-hours from admission. Through quantitative evaluation of the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve, the Explainable Boosting Machine (EBM) algorithm produced a model with a greater area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.79 while the Braden Scale produced an AUC of 0.70 at both 48-hours and 72-hours.

description: Climate change rapidly drives species range dynamics, prompting many terrestrial organisms to shift northward to higher latitudes and forcing new species-environment and species-species interactions. The tick vector Ixodes scapularis, commonly known as the blacklegged tick, has historically been endemic to the United States but is establishing a persistent population in Canada, potentially exposing people to a novel zoonotic pathogen, Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease. The collection of tick records (within Canada and the United States) between 2017 and 2022 via citizen-/community-science programs and the usage of high-resolution 1km climate data enabled me to produce robust, ensemble ecological niche models. I carried out 4,704 model iterations across two datasets, 12 algorithms, and 10 climate profiles using 40 environmental variables. I extrapolated select models over three time periods, 2011-2040, 2041-2070, and 2071-2100, across two projected climate scenarios, SSP5-8.5 and SSP3-7.0, incorporating 2,094 future predictions of I. scapularis distribution. My ensembles (AUC: 0.9565 ± 0.0065; TSS: 0.8435 ± 0.0155; Kappa: 0.819 ± 0.014) identified temperature, precipitation, biomass production (NPP), length of the growing season, climate moisture index, and the number of yearly degree days as the variables that best explained the distribution of I. scapularis. Further changes to these climate conditions will result in continued I. scapularis range expansion, with estimates ranging from ~205% (409,475 km² to 1,247,689 km²) up to ~248% (447,532 km² to 1,556,760 km²) before the end of the century. These distributional niche changes coincide with a northern latitude limit reaching as far as ~48°N by 2040, ~50°N by 2070, and ~52°N by 2100. These findings highlight the invasive potential of I. scapularis, with implications for public health and changing ecosystem dynamics.

title: Construction of Crystallographic Tilings by the Cut-and-Project Method
Creators: name: Almutairi, Najat
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2021

description: Patterns of point sets and tilings were produced and studied for centuries in many cultures. At the border line of mathematics, crystallography, chemistry and physics the general opinion is that every construction for point sets has a counterpart for tilings, but usually this belief is not supported by theorems. This thesis explores the connection between point sets and tilings in two areas in more details: (1) The construction of tilings from point sets, leading to the introduction of clustered Delone point sets and the clustered Voronoi cell tiling construction, which allows to produce tilings from point sets which cannot be constructed as Voronoi cell tilings. (2) A generalized cut-and-project method to produce tilings from higher-dimensional hypercube tilings, including non-generic boundary cases. This allows to construct crystallographic tilings as cut-and-project tilings.

description: Recommender systems are a relatively new field of interest in data science. There are roughly 2 approaches to recommender systems: content-based filtering and collaborative filtering. For this master’s paper substitute/project, I designed and implemented a hybrid recommendation system combining the two approaches. This document will detail the methods I used and the process of arriving at what I had. It will also include some of the obstacles I faced during the process, how I addressed them, and the ways the project changed because of it.
Generalized Mass Action Law and Thermodynamics of Nonlinear Markov Processes

description: The nonlinear Markov processes are the measure-valued dynamical systems which preserve positivity. They can be represented as the law of large numbers limits of general Markov models of interacting particles. In physics, the kinetic equations allow Lyapunov functionals (entropy, free energy, etc.). This may be considered as a sort of inheritance of the Lyapunov functionals from the microscopic master equations. We study nonlinear Markov processes that inherit thermodynamic properties from the microscopic linear Markov processes. We develop the thermodynamics of nonlinear Markov processes and analyze the asymptotic assumption, which are sufficient for this inheritance.
Identifying sample swaps in clinical and omics data pairs

description: In research a patient is often characterized by multiple data types, commonly clinical and (diverse) omics data. Correct pairing of patient samples is essential. However, practice shows that sample swaps regularly occur. The problem can be addressed by estimating clinical characteristics on the basis of omics data, e.g. 'sex' vs reads covering the y-chromosome. In a feasibility study, we explored the opportunities and limitations of this approach. As ground truth, we simulated data for two clinical parameters: 'sex' and 'height' (n=100). We assume that both parameters can be predicted on the basis of omics data. Considering different levels of variation, we simulated the predicted values of sex and height. To identify sample swaps, a similarity score is calculated. Low scoring pairs are flagged as non-matching and alternative pairings are suggested that result in overall higher scores. Dependent on the simulated variation, our pipeline succeeded in correcting 44% (variation=4) up to 84% (variation=0.5) of the swaps. For all simulated scenarios, precision was 86-100%. Accuracy of our approach could be further improved as more clinical parameters are considered. As a next step, we plan to analyze real data, training a machine learning model for the prediction of clinical parameters.

description: This paper addresses the problem of information evaluation for Intelligence. Starting
from NATO recommendations for assessing information, we propose a semanticbased
model to evaluate information. We also define a semi-automatic evaluation process
in which an ontology is used, to detect similar items of information. Semantically
similar items are then presented to an operator in charge, to estimate their correlations.
Items of information are electronic documents exploited for intelligence purposes
and they are considered in a broader sense with respect to their form (structured files
or free-form text) and their content (description of images of video scenes, HUMINT
reports). Linguistic variance, an inherent feature of textual data, can also be handled
by using the ontology, while human intervention during the evaluation process ensures
a good quality outcome. Finally, we show that this process is compliant with NATO
recommendations, while going beyond their limitations.

description: Since the thermal conduction equation has form invariance under coordinate transformation, one can design thermal metamaterials with novel functions by tailoring materials' thermal conductivities. In this work, we establish a different transformation theory, and propose a layered device with anisotropic thermal conductivities. The device is able to convert heat flux from parallel patterns into non-parallel patterns and vice versa. In the mean time, the heat flux pattern outside the device keeps undisturbed as if this device is absent. We perform finite-element simulations to confirm the converting behavior. This work paves a different way to manipulate the flow of heat at will.

description: Recently, Kumar et al. [APL 104, 262905 (2014)] have reported quantum paraelectric glass state in SrCu3Ti4O12. Their analysis is based on the misconception about the effect of quantum fluctuations on paraelectric properties. There are very serious issues with their analysis of permittivity vs T data where authors tried to prove the presence of quantum paraelectricity in SrCu3Ti4O12. In the comment we have clearly affirm that the analysis presented by the authors do not prove the presence of quantum paraelectric behavior and there by the quantum paraelectric glass state. The quantum fluctuations and the frequency dependence of permittivity, showing relaxor like behavior cannot exist simultaneously.

"You can't read your way out of racism": Creating anti-racist action out of education in an academic library
Creators: name: Shawgo, Kristan
name: Figueroa, Monica
Publisher: name: Emerald Publishing
Year: 2021

description: Purpose
Under the transformational leadership of the University Librarian, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Libraries shifted from having an education- and programming-based “diversity committee” to a council of librarians advocating for action, anti-racism, and social justice, both within our organization and across campus. As our "you can't read your way out of racism."

Approach
With support from library leadership, the Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA) Council has advanced anti-racism work in the libraries by serving as facilitators for a book discussion series, organizing a 21-day racial equity challenge, supporting staff in integrating anti-racism practices into their daily work through brown bag conversations, and facilitating the development of inclusion-focused performance management goals.

Findings
What does an anti-racist library look like, and how does our organization envision this future? These questions anchor the IDEA Council’s strategies. The libraries have witnessed a positive shift in staff participation: two-thirds of library staff participated in a Racial Equity Institute Groundwater presentation and in a library-wide book discussion series; approximately half the staff committed to our 21-day racial equity challenge. Participants were asked to reflect in conversation and through surveys.

Originality/value
The first wave of a newly established grant program funded eight staff-led projects to advance social justice in the libraries. Additional steps included caucusing by racial identity, staff-wide discussions about racial equity, and a second wave of funding for the grant program. We approach this work with cultural humility: seeking to learn from one another, our peers, and fellow activists.

title: In Defence of the Ministry: Factionalism and Pro-Ministerial Propaganda under Robert Harley, 1710-1715
Creators: name: Monter, Alice
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2026

description: This thesis seeks to develop our understanding of the pro-ministerial propaganda system designed by Robert Harley, its written productions, and the interaction between politics and literature during the period. By analysing a wide-ranging corpus (composed of pamphlets, press extracts, secret histories, poems, fables and ballads) this study will examine the context, evolution and outcome of pro-ministerial propaganda in an age defined by factionalism. Considering the works of authors such as Daniel Defoe, Jonathan Swift, Matthew Prior, Delarivier Manley and John Arbuthnot (and others), but also the links that bound these writers to the Harley ministry, I aim to recontextualise and retrace Harley’s mandate through the major crises and events it came to be defined by, and their unfolding in the public sphere. This work will also explore the politics of patronage – the dynamics binding writers to political patrons – as well as the questions of political affiliations and identifications, and their showcasing and transposition in the cultural sphere. Through the study of the propagandistic discourse animating Harley’s mandate, I will also paint the portrait of a restless nation, tearing itself apart on political and religious issues, be they foreign or domestic. Chapter 1 discusses pro-ministerial propaganda in the context of the 1710 General Elections, and engages with Harleyite ideology and the new ministry’s handling of electoral propaganda, outlining cross-partisanship as a key element. Chapter 2 focuses on the partisan recuperations of the Guiscard affair, and its impact on ministerial and propagandistic cohesion. In Chapter 3, considerations of the economic context lead to a reassessment of the creation of the South Sea Company – and the discourse surrounding this creation – in light of domestic and international politics. Chapter 4 attempts to show the evolution of the pro-ministerial discourse surrounding the peace prospects with France, in the context of the War of the Spanish Succession, and points toward the emergence of a Harleyite redefinition of patriotism and liberty. Chapter 5 revolves around the collapse of the Harley administration, interrogating the complex strategies deployed by its main apologists when confronted by the loss of their patron and champion. The conclusion discusses the complexities of assessing a Harleyite legacy and sketches further areas of research.

operator’s role in so-called autonomous systems. Autonomy control
and authority sharing are discussed, and the possible effects of authority
conflicts on the human operator’s cognition and situation awareness are
highlighted. As an illustration, an experiment conducted at ISAE (the French
Aeronautical and Space Institute) shows that the occurrence of a conflict
leads to a perseveration behavior and attentional tunneling of the operator.
Formal methods are discussed to infer such attentional impairment from
the monitoring of physiological and behavioral measures and some results
are given.

description: The NA62 experiment at SPS is a continuation of the long standing CERN kaon physics program. The high statistics and the unprecedent precision allow to probe the Standard Model and test the description of the strong interactions at low energy. The final results on the the lepton universality test by measuring the ratio $R_K = Γ(K^{+}\to e^{+}ν) / Γ(K^{+}\to μ^{+}ν)$ and the study of the $K^\pm\toπ^{\pm}γγ$ decay are presented. The major goal of the NA62 experiment is to perform a measurement of the $Br(K^{+} \to π^{+} ν\barν)$ with a precision of 10% in two years of data taking. The detector setup together with the analysis technique is described.

description: Purpose – The objective of this study is to establish the current state of library and information science (LIS) scholarship pertaining to anti-racism, equity, inclusion and social justice initiatives.
Design/methodology/approach – Using comprehensive search strategies, three LIS databases were searched for relevant literature published in the last 10 years and results were exported and de-duplicated using Endnote. Citations were screened by two blinded, independent reviewers based on pre-defined eligibility criteria. Citations in the final data set were then hand coded by three reviewers using deductive coding. Subject terms for all citations were categorized and consolidated to identify major themes across the corpus of included
publications. Results were analyzed using bibliometrics and thematic analysis.
Findings – A total of 691 unique citations were included in this analysis based on inclusion criteria. Publication productivity has generally increased from 2011 to 2020; findings show publications from 170
source titles and 944 authors representing 33 countries. Prevalent themes included access to information, multiculturalism and social justice. Various populations groups, areas of LIS practice, library types and social justice topics have been addressed in the literature. Over 15% of citations focused on anti-racism efforts in LIS.
Originality/value –This study applied both bibliometric and thematic approaches to analyzing LIS literature at macro and micro levels regarding anti-racism, equity, inclusion and social justice.

description: We have developed a modified form of the equations of smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamics which are stable in the presence of very steep density gradients. Using this formalism, we have performed simulations of the collapse of magnetised molecular cloud cores to form protostars and drive outflows. Our stable formalism allows for smaller sink particles (< 5 AU) than used previously and the investigation of the effect of varying the angle, θ, between the initial field axis and the rotation axis. The nature of the outflows depends strongly on this angle: jet-like outflows are not produced at all when θ > 30°, and a collimated outflow is not sustained when θ > 10°. No substantial outflows of any kind are produced when θ > 60°. This may place constraints on the geometry of the magnetic field in molecular clouds where bipolar outflows are seen.

title: Ambivaland: cultural ambivalence in Newfoundland
Creators: name: Rangsch, Rona
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/04haebc03
publisherIdentifierScheme: ROR
Year: 2024

description: This project revalues the often underrated concept of ambivalence as a distinct concept pregnant with creative potentialities and applies it to settler Newfoundland culture as a research lens. In the process, our understanding and image of the place are enriched by reinterpreting a collection of charged contexts, which have hitherto been considered little related, as belonging to a pervasive and potentially creative web of cultural ambivalence. Contexts studied include the European colonization of the island, the precariousness in Newfoundland outports, the Smallwood era's sociopolitical tangle, clashes between resource exploitation and love of the land, settler Newfoundlanders' non-singular colonial identity, and the place's puzzling quality as both centre and periphery. In terms of research questions, the project asks what a meaningful and productive understanding of ambivalence looks like and how it can be used to develop a richer understanding of settler Newfoundland. Methodologically, the research is based on discourse analysis with a focus on problematization, abductive reasoning, transversality, and speculation. These approaches share the capacity to open alternative trajectories of reasoning through the radical questioning or active ignoring of existing explanatory systems. This tenor is imperative for a project that attempts to reshuffle both the conceptual and interpretive packs by using an undervalued concept (ambivalence) to re-map a jagged terrain (an array of tensions in settler Newfoundland). Conceptual key findings include the unambiguity of ambivalence and its overlap with creativity. Within the Newfoundland case study, the lens of cultural ambivalence challenges supposedly demarcated spheres of agency and power in both colonial and postcolonial spheres and exposes Newfoundlanders' enhanced capacity for creativity. Moreover, it allows me to debunk a number of persistent myths and to provide others with actual content. Finally, by assembling a variety of contexts not studied in this constellation before under the umbrella of cultural ambivalence, I am able to identify correlations that have previously gone unnoticed or underappreciated. The resulting web of ambivalence provides a rhizomatic explanatory grid that establishes a creative facet of the place and exposes new leverage points for addressing cultural tensions. This recommends cultural ambivalence as a potent prism for borderlands with complex colonial histories more generally.

description: We live in an increasingly technological world. Automated systems certainly can
make life easier, but they can also create complexity and uncertainty. Moreover,
it is clear that automation does not merely supplant human activity, but also transforms
the nature of human work. This review examines an original account of this
transformation – a link between automation technology and the sense that our actions
cause effects on the outside world (so-called ‘agency’). Accordingly, we first discuss
the human factor issues related to automation technology. Particularly, we introduce
the out-of-the-loop performance problem. Then, we introduce recent findings about
agency. We propose that several recently developed psychological approaches to
the self-promise to enhance our comprehension of the transformation induced by
increased automation. Next, we address the controversial issue of agency measuring,
particularly the necessary dissociation between explicit and implicit agency measurement.
In particular, we introduce the intentional binding effect as an implicit agency
measurement, and we discuss the problems and issues related to the generalization of
this effect to more complex situations. Finally, we suggest that the investigation of this
authorship processing in the field of human-machine interaction may be fruitful, both to
elaborate concrete design recommendations and to evaluate the potentiality for an HMI
to satisfy the agency mechanism.

description: Background: In a flipped, required first-year drug information course, students were taught the systematic approach to answering drug information questions, commonly utilized resources, and literature searching. As co-coordinator, a librarian taught three weeks of the course focused on mobile applications, development of literature searching skills, and practicing in PubMed. Course assignments were redesigned in 2019 based on assessment best practices and replaced
weekly multiple-choice quizzes used in prior iterations of the course.

Case Presentation: Following two weeks of literature searching 
instruction, students were assigned a drug information question that would serve as the impetus for the search they conducted. Students (n=66) had one week to practice and record a screencast video of their search in PubMed. Students narrated their video with an explanation of the actions being performed and were assessed using a twenty-point rubric created by the course coordinator and librarian. The librarian also created general feedback videos for each question by recording screencasts while performing the literature searches and clarifying troublesome aspects for students. The librarian spent about twenty-four hours grading and six hours writing scripts, recording, and editing feedback videos.

Conclusion: Most students performed well on the assignment and few experienced technical difficulties. Instructors will use this assignment and feedback method in the future. Screencast videos proved an innovative way to assess student knowledge and to provide feedback on literature searching assignments. This method is transferrable to any medical education setting and could be used across all health professions to improve information literacy skills.

description: Embedded software is implementing more and more functions in aerospace,
including critical ones. Model Driven Engineering has changed
software life cycle development by introducing models in the early steps of
software development. Verification and validation is essential, at model and
at code levels, and still mostly done by simulation and test. However, formal
methods, which are based on the analysis of the program or software
model, are being transferred to industry for verification of critical software.
This paper presents the context of aerospace software development, a brief
overview of formal methods and of the associated industrial practice, and the
work done at Onera on formal verification of critical Aerospace software at
model and at code levels. This work addresses four themes:
• Specifics of application of formal methods to aerospace;
• Model driven engineering at platform level;
• Cooperation of analysis techniques;
• Automating test using formal methods.
Each of these four themes is a research domain in itself; it is thus impossible
in a single paper to provide a detailed state of the art and an exhaustive
list of research challenges for each of them. This paper rather aims at giving
a broad vision and at presenting work done at Onera in these domains.
