The private sector of the afforestation industry in Australia : with particular reference to afforestation investment companies
Creators: name: McKenzie Smith, Graham R
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1975
Subjects: subject: Forests and forestry Economic aspects Australia
subject: Afforestation Economic aspects Australia

description: This essay examines the private afforestation industry in Australia, placing greatest emphasis on the investment of funds by members of the public in afforestation companies. During the 1920's and 1930's many small investors heeded the call to invest their capital in the establishment of plantations of fast growing conifers to overcome the predicted "famine" of timber in the future. These investors received little return on their capital as most of the companies collapsed during the depression without having established their promised plantations. When similar predictions of timber shortage occurred in the 1960's and since other companies have sought capital from the small investor. These companies are examined in the main body of the essay. The company and taxation law relating to these companies is examined and the deficiencies that allowed the collapse of earlier companies without a return have mostly been removed but later sections describe practices that would appear to be in contravention of the law. The details of the majority of companies offering their services to the public as forest managers are examined and a personal appraisal of their performance given. This performance is generally found wanting. Cases are cited of plantations that cannot provide any return on the public's investment and in the majority of cases little hope is given that the return will be as substantial as has been promised by the salesman for the investment. The forms of investment presently available to the public are found to be grossly inefficient as is the assistance given by governments to encourage private afforestation. The need for assistance for the industry is councilled and possible forms of assistance suggested. The need for the professional forester to be concerned with the activities of the so called "forestry consultants" and the companies offering afforestation investments to the public is also councilled.
The RoboPol Program: Optical Polarimetric Monitoring of Blazars

description: After three years of polarimetric monitoring of blazars, the RoboPol project has uncovered several key characteristics of polarimetric rotations in the optical for these most variable sources. The most important of these is that polarization properties of the synchrotron emission in the optical appear to be directly linked with gamma-ray activity. In this paper, we discuss the evidence for this connection, as well as the broader features of polarimetric behavior in blazars that are key in making progress with theoretical modeling of blazar emission.

description: Recent research in cross-lingual word embeddings has almost exclusively focused on offline methods, which independently train word embeddings in different languages and map them to a shared space through linear transformations. While several authors have questioned the underlying isomorphism assumption, which states that word embeddings in different languages have approximately the same structure, it is not clear whether this is an inherent limitation of mapping approaches or a more general issue when learning cross-lingual embeddings. So as to answer this question, we experiment with parallel corpora, which allows us to compare offline mapping to an extension of skip-gram that jointly learns both embedding spaces. We observe that, under these ideal conditions, joint learning yields to more isomorphic embeddings, is less sensitive to hubness, and obtains stronger results in bilingual lexicon induction. We thus conclude that current mapping methods do have strong limitations, calling for further research to jointly learn cross-lingual embeddings with a weaker cross-lingual signal.

description: In Brazil, the situation of imprisoned women is still framed in a fragile scenario in the face of the incipience of public policies. According to the national survey of penitentiary information (INFOPEN Women) produced in 2017, it is necessary to consider and guarantee the human rights of these women, and for that, it is necessary to improve policies that meet their needs and protect their specific rights. In this sense, the purpose of this essay is to analyze the data available in this last report in order to verify if there are public policies aimed at women incarcerated in Brazil and whether the dignity of women prisoners is being observed. For this purpose, descriptive, exploratory, qualitative and quantitative methods were used as well as bibliographic review. Initially, the article demonstrated the situation of women incarcerated in Brazil. Shortly afterwards, the public policies necessary to guarantee the rights foreseen in the internal and international scope were discussed. The need to implement public policies for incarcerated women with a view to reducing provisional incarceration as well as an instrument guaranteeing the dignity of women prisoners was confirmed.

description: The second Gaia data release (DR2, spring 2018) included a unique all-sky catalogue of large-amplitude long-period variables (LPVs) containing Miras and semi-regular variables. These stars are on the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB), and are characterized by high luminosity, changing surface composition, and intense mass loss, that make them of paramount importance for stellar, galactic, and extra-galactic studies. An initial investigation of LPVs in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) from the DR2 catalog of LPVs has revealed the possibility to disentangle O-rich and C-rich stars using a combination of optical Gaia and infrared 2MASS photometry. The so-called Gaia-2MASS diagram constructed to achieve this has further been shown to enable the identification of sub-groups of AGB stars among the O-rich and C-rich LPVs. Here, we extend this initial study of the Gaia-2MASS diagram to the Small Magellanic Cloud and the Galaxy, and use a variability amplitude proxy to identify LPVs from the full Gaia DR2 archive. We show that the remarkable properties found in the LMC also apply to these other stellar systems. Interesting features, moreover, emerge as a result of the different metallicities between the three stellar environments, which we highlight in this exploratory presentation of Gaia's potential to study stellar populations harboring LPVs. Finally, we look ahead to the future, and highlight the power of the exploitation of Gaia RP spectra for the identification of carbon stars using solely Gaia data in forthcoming data releases, as revealed in an Image of the Week published by the Gaia consortium on the European Space Agency's web site. These proceedings include three animated images that can be used as outreach material.

Corotating and irrotational binary black holes in quasi-circular orbits

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: A complete formalism for constructing initial data representing black-hole binaries in quasi-equilibrium is developed. Radiation reaction prohibits, in general, true equilibrium binary configurations. However, when the timescale for orbital decay is much longer than the orbital period, a binary can be considered to be in quasi-equilibrium. If each black hole is assumed to be in quasi-equilibrium, then a complete set of boundary conditions for all initial data variables can be developed. These boundary conditions are applied on the apparent horizon of each black hole, and in fact force a specified surface to be an apparent horizon. A global assumption of quasi-equilibrium is also used to fix some of the freely specifiable pieces of the initial data and to uniquely fix the asymptotic boundary conditions. This formalism should allow for the construction of completely general quasi-equilibrium black hole binary initial data.

Abstract
Pretomanid, an oral nitroimidazooxazine antimycobacterial agent administered as part of the BPaL (bedaquiline, pretomanid and linezolid) and BPaMZ (bedaquiline, pretomanid, moxifloxacin and pyrazinamide) regimens, has been developed by the Global Alliance for TB Drug Development (TB Alliance) under license from Novartis, for the treatment for tuberculosis (TB). TB Alliance has licensed Mylan to manufacture and commercialize pretomanid for use as part of the BPaMZ and BPaL regimens. The license is non-exclusive in low- and middle-income countries and exclusive in high-income markets. Pretomanid, as part of the BPaL regimen, was recently approved in the USA under the Limited Population Pathway for Antibacterial and Antifungal Drugs (LPAD) pathway for the treatment of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) TB and treatment-intolerant or non-responsive multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB. Pretomanid is also under regulatory review in the EU. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of pretomanid leading to this first regulatory approval.

description: Beef producers in Tennessee have expressed interest in the creation of an in-state certified beef program. Therefore, an online choice experiment was conducted to evaluate Tennessee consumer preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for Tennessee Certified Beef and other beef attributes that are likely to appear on Tennessee beef. Tennessee Certified Beef is defined as beef originating from animals born, raised, finished, and harvested in Tennessee. Results of two treatments, a Control Treatment in which consumers were not given the attribute definitions, and an Information Treatment in which consumers were given the attribute definitions, were compared for both steak and ground beef. Data was analyzed using a random parameters logit model. Results of both treatments indicate steak consumers valued Tennessee Certified Beef more highly than all other individual attributes including Certified Angus Beef, grass fed, no hormones administered, and Master Quality Raised Beef. Results for ground beef showed consumers most highly valued the attributes no hormones administered and Tennessee Certified Beef. Results suggest that Tennessee beef consumers would be willing to pay a premium for Tennessee branded beef.

description: We show that a string-inspired Planck scale modification of general relativity can have observable cosmological effects. Specifically, we present a complete analysis of the inflationary perturbation spectrum produced by a phenomenological Lagrangian that has a standard form on large scales but incorporates a string-inspired short distance cutoff, and find a deviation from the standard result. We use the de Sitter calculation as the basis of a qualitative analysis of other inflationary backgrounds, arguing that in these cases the cutoff could have a more pronounced effect, changing the shape of the spectrum. Moreover, the computational approach developed here can be used to provide unambiguous calculations of the perturbation spectrum in other heuristic models that modify trans-Planckian physics and thereby determine their impact on the inflationary perturbation spectrum. Finally, we argue that this model may provide an exception to constraints, recently proposed by Tanaka and Starobinsky, on the ability of Planck-scale physics to modify the cosmological spectrum.

title: In-situ Tailoring of Functional Properties for the LPBF-Process of Pure Copper
Creators: name: Sun, Laura Luran
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2024

description: This thesis explores the application of the machine learning method physics-informed neural network (PINN) for the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process of pure copper. Given the process parameters, the accuracy of the predictions for relative densities of this method are compared to the traditional methods of a simple artificial neural network (ANN) and a linear regression. The results show the superiority of the PINN method in all tested scenarios, especially for complex and small data sets. Various data sets containing both literature data using red lasers and experimental data using a green laser are employed and show that a transfer of knowledge from red laser data to green laser data is feasible and beneficial. For red laser data from literature, the PINN method produces predictions with a mean squared error (MSE) of 4.58, as opposed to a MSE of 14.84 and 18.47 for a simple ANN and linear regression respectively. Using the transfer of knowledge for green laser data and reduced set of training data, PINN predictions exhibit a MSE of only 2.46, while a simple ANN and linear regression lead to a MSE of 7.29 and 5.19. These error values mean that for red laser data, the PINN method yields predictions that deviate 2.14 percentage points from the actual value and for green laser data the deviation is only 1.57 percentage points.

In addition, this thesis conducts a thorough literature review on the influence of process parameters on density, microstructure, and mechanical and electrical properties. This knowledge provides valuable insights for the further development of PINN for other outcomes, such as the microstructure and related functional properties. Furthermore, a test series for the LPBF process of copper using a green laser is presented for a laser spot diameter of 50 µm using an analytical approach focused on the geometry of the melting pools. This design of experiments serves as a first step for the systematic exploration of LPBF process parameters to achieve a broad analysis on their effects on density, microstructure, and functional properties. 

This study pioneers in the application of PINN on the LPBF process of copper and through that, advances the research concerning the analysis of the in-situ influence through the modification of process parameters. The results help to further the LPBF process optimization in the face of lean process development with implications for the broader field of additive manufacturing.

description: In this paper, the cosmic no hair theorem for anisotropic Bianchi models which admit inflation with a scalar field is studied in the framework of Brane world. It is found that all Bianchi models except Bianchi type IX, transit to an inflationary regime with vanishing anisotropy. In the Brane world, anisotropic universe approaches the inflationary era much faster than that in the general theory of relativity. The form of the potential does not affect the evolution in the inflationary epoch. However, the late time behaviour is controlled by a constant additive factor in the potential for the inflaton field.

Ecological studies on the secondary vegetation of a tropical montane habitat in Mindanao
Creators: name: Kellman, Martin C
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1967
Subjects: subject: Plant succession
subject: Botany Philippines Mindanao Island

description: Secondary vegetation may be defined as vegetation developed subsequent to human interference. Any human presence in an area almost invariably produces interference in some degree but the term is used here to describe only catastrophic human interference involving destruction of most or all of the above-ground living plant material. It is probable that even Paleolithic man, by the use of fire, was able to affect much of the earth' s natural vegetation in this catastrophic manner, producing extensive areas of secondary vegetation in regions of dry or seasonally dry climate (Sauer 1956). The advent of agriculture, bringing with it woodland clearance and grazing, must have extended the areas of secondary vegetation greatly particularly in the more humid climates which, until that time, had escaped severe interference. In this way man has been responsible for creating new vegetation types or at least for extending types formerly of minor importance , and it is probable , as Anderson (1956) has pointed out , that he has also precipitated the evolution of many new species which now occupy the unique habitats created by his disturbance.

description: I review what is required to compute transport coefficients in ultra-relativistic, weakly coupled gauge theories, at leading order in $g$, using kinetic theory. Then I discuss how the calculation would look in alternative approaches: the 2PI method, and direct diagrammatic analysis. I argue that the 2PI method may be a good way to derive the kinetic theory, but is not very useful directly (in a gauge theory). The diagrammatic approach is almost hopeless.

Fitness Dependent Optimizer: Inspired by the Bee Swarming Reproductive Process

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Neural and Evolutionary Computing (cs.NE)

description: In this paper, a novel swarm intelligent algorithm is proposed, known as the fitness dependent optimizer (FDO). The bee swarming reproductive process and their collective decision-making have inspired this algorithm; it has no algorithmic connection with the honey bee algorithm or the artificial bee colony algorithm. It is worth mentioning that FDO is considered a particle swarm optimization (PSO)-based algorithm that updates the search agent position by adding velocity (pace). However, FDO calculates velocity differently; it uses the problem fitness function value to produce weights, and these weights guide the search agents during both the exploration and exploitation phases. Throughout the paper, the FDO algorithm is presented, and the motivation behind the idea is explained. Moreover, FDO is tested on a group of 19 classical benchmark test functions, and the results are compared with three well-known algorithms: PSO, the genetic algorithm (GA), and the dragonfly algorithm (DA), additionally, FDO is tested on IEEE Congress of Evolutionary Computation Benchmark Test Functions (CEC-C06, 2019 Competition) [1]. The results are compared with three modern algorithms: (DA), the whale optimization algorithm (WOA), and the salp swarm algorithm (SSA). The FDO results show better performance in most cases and comparative results in other cases. Furthermore, the results are statistically tested with the Wilcoxon rank-sum test to show the significance of the results. Likewise, FDO stability in both the exploration and exploitation phases is verified and performance-proofed using different standard measurements. Finally, FDO is applied to real-world applications as evidence of its feasibility.

description: We study the impact of neutrino oscillations on the supernova neutrino signal in the Large Volume Detector (LVD). The number of expected events for a galactic supernova (D=10 kpc) is calculated, assuming neutrino masses and mixing that explain solar and atmospheric neutrino results. The possibility to detect neutrinos in different channels makes LVD sensitive to different scenarios for neutrino properties, such as normal or inverted neutrino mass hierarchy, and/or adiabatic or non adiabatic MSW resonances associated to U(e3). Of particular importance are the charged current reactions on carbon: oscillations increase by almost one order of magnitude the number of events expected from this channel.

description: Distance metric learning is successful in discovering intrinsic relations in data. However, most algorithms are computationally demanding when the problem size becomes large. In this paper, we propose a discriminative metric learning algorithm, and develop a distributed scheme learning metrics on moderate-sized subsets of data, and aggregating the results into a global solution. The technique leverages the power of parallel computation. The algorithm of the aggregated distance metric learning (ADML) scales well with the data size and can be controlled by the partition. We theoretically analyse and provide bounds for the error induced by the distributed treatment. We have conducted experimental evaluation of ADML, both on specially designed tests and on practical image annotation tasks. Those tests have shown that ADML achieves the state-of-the-art performance at only a fraction of the cost incurred by most existing methods.
Comment on the transition amplitude for toy universe models

description: The parametrized system called ``ideal clock'' is turned into an ordinary gauge system and quantized by means of a path integral in which canonical gauges are admissible. Then the possibility of applying the results to obtain the transition amplitude for empty minisuperspaces, and the restrictions arising from the topology of the constraint surface, are studied by matching the models with the ideal clock. A generalization to minisuperspaces with true degrees of freedom is also discussed.

description: We use recently available Chinese data from 2005m1 to 2016m2 to examine the impact of monetary policy on agricultural price using a factor-augmented vector autoregressive (FAVAR) model proposed by Bernanke et al. (2005). Results show the superiority of a FAVAR model with three variables and three factors over other specifications. Impulse response functions show that both money supply and interest rate have no impact on agricultural price in the long-run (beyond 50 months). However, results indicate the considerable short-run impact of monetary policy on agricultural price. According to forecasting error variance decompositions, the interest rate could account more for the fluctuations in agricultural price than the money supply.

description: In this paper, we are concerned with a formulation of Magnus and Floquet-Magnus expansions for general nonlinear differential equations. To this aim, we introduce suitable continuous variable transformations generated by operators. As an application of the simple formulas so-obtained, we explicitly compute the first terms of the Floquet-Magnus expansion for the Van der Pol oscillator and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the torus.

description: Small farmers dominate farming in the Caribbean, where state extension and advisory services are financially stretched. The provision of timely, accurate advice, therefore, is less than adequate. The context of the problem investigated spans geographical locations with primary sites located in St. Vincent and with Trinidad and Tobago with secondary testing sites such as Belize, Kenya, and St. Kitts and Nevis. Agricultural field staff participated in the testing of the Virtual Outreach System. The Virtual Outreach System addresses the constraints and limitations of extension workers. Using a smart phone queries can be sent to a subject matter expert at the University of the West Indies, with or without a photo attached, and gets a response within 48 hours. Developed in September 2011, a virtual extension outreach pilot project was tested in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize and Kenya between October 2011 and January 2012 allowing for modifications to meet farmers' specific needs. Positive results were obtained, showing that information and communication technologies (ICTs) could have substantial impact on agriculture, as it could improve institutional information management, and communication between regional cooperation institutions and farmers, promote trade, financial cooperation and efficiency in key sectors such as agriculture and education. Results obtained from the focus group used to evaluate the initiative were contrary to popular belief that farmers are typically stuck with the old fashioned mind set and prone to rigid behaviour as far as technology adoption is concerned. In fact, they were very eager to learn new techniques. Most of the farmers showed immense interest in getting latest information and learning techniques which could transform their "age-old" farming methods.
