description: A method and apparatus for improving the performance of polyphase AC machines. The polyphase AC machines are excited both with a fundamental frequency and with an odd harmonic of the fundamental frequency. The fundamental flux wave and the harmonic flux wave will travel at synchronous speed in the air gap. This facilitates redistributing the flux densities in the machine and thereby increasing the total flux per pole in the machine.

El tema de figura en silueta “Charlie Chaplin”: Un tema de Ejecutante Ritual de la América Media
Creators: name: Mora-Marín, David F.
Publisher: name: Universidad de Costa Rica
Year: 2016

description: The paper presents evidence for the definition and origin of a figural jade theme that is common in Costa Rica.  It consists of a standing figure in a ritual pose, and it is argued that it originated in the context of the jade exchange network linking the ancient jade artisans of Pre-Columbian Costa Rica to their counterparts in the Maya region of Mesoamerica.  In the Maya region, archaeologists have referred to this theme as “Charlie Chaplin” figurines because of the characteristic pose with knees bent and feet pointing to the sides.  It is proposed that this theme was pan-Mesoamerican, that it may very well have originated in the Middle Preclassic Olmec tradition, and that it appears to be the template for the so-called Ruler-as-World Axis theme defined for the Olmec and Maya traditions by various scholars.  The paper suggests that this theme was adopted by the jade artisans from Pre-Columbian Costa Rica, who then adapted to the local artistic canons through the addition of stylistic traits typical of their tradition, and who may have used it to derive a new theme, made up of a blend of the older avian celtiform (avian axe-god) pendant theme and the diffused “Charlie Chaplin” theme, resulting in the anthropomorphic celtiform (anthropomorphic axe-god) pendant theme.  The exchange network that led to the spread of this theme strongly points to the need for a more inclusive framework, a Middle American framework (distinct from Central America and Mesoamerica), to the study of ancient Pre-Columbian societies of Mexico and Central America, and possibly beyond, given the possible presence of this theme in Colombia.
Active Viewership and Ethical Representation: Responsible Spectatorship in Alfredo Jaar’s “Real Pictures” and Gil Courtemanche’s Un dimanche à la piscine à Kigali
Creators: name: Ritter, Angela
Publisher: name: University Library System, University of Pittsburgh
Year: 2016

description: In its discussion of Gil Courtemanche’s Un dimanche à la piscine à Kigali and Alfredo Jaar’s installation of “Real Pictures,” both of which are representations of the Rwandan Genocide, this analysis contributes to a larger discussion on ethical representations of violence. Generally the discussion of the ethics of representation analyzes the ways in which the author or artist portrays the violent events. It focuses on the importance of the historical and political context when describing the events, as well as on the ways in which the author or artist avoids the potential objectifying or dehumanizing effects of representations on the victims, as well as, the perpetrators. This article highlights another important element to be considered in the study of ethical representations- that of how the reader is engaged in the representation and as a result may or may not contribute to stereotypes, objectification, and other negative consequences possible when representing violence. Those who represent violence must not only consider ethical implications with their own interactions with the event and text or image, but also how they encourage their audience to interact with them.
Siderophore-mediated iron acquisition and modulation of host-bacterial interactions
Creators: name: Ellermann, Melissa
name: Arthur, Janelle C.
Publisher: name: Elsevier
Year: 2016

description: Iron is an essential micronutrient for most life forms including the majority of resident bacteria of the microbiota and their mammalian hosts. Bacteria have evolved numerous mechanisms to competitively acquire iron within host environments, such as the secretion of small molecules known as siderophores that can solubilize iron for bacterial use. However, siderophore biosynthesis and acquisition is not a capability equally harbored by all resident bacteria. Moreover, the structural diversity of siderophores creates variability in the susceptibility to host mechanisms that serve to counteract siderophore-mediated iron acquisition and limit bacterial growth. As a result, the differential capabilities to acquire iron among members of a complex microbial community carry important implications for the growth and function of resident bacteria. Siderophores can also directly influence host function by modulating cellular iron homeostasis, further providing a mechanism by which resident bacteria may influence their local environment at the host-microbial interface. This review will explore the putative mechanisms by which siderophore production by resident bacteria in the intestines may influence microbial community dynamics and host-bacterial interactions with important implications for pathogen- and microbiota-driven diseases including infection, inflammatory bowel diseases and colorectal cancer.

description: Less than 2% of Malawian women use long-acting reversible contraception (LARC). We describe experiences of Malawian family planning providers, focusing on LARC. We conducted a mixed-methods study using questionnaires and focus group discussions with providers in Lilongwe. Data were analyzed separately and triangulated. Most (58%) participants saw over 30 patients daily. Only 19% had ever inserted IUC. Qualitative data were complementary; participants noted that LARC provision was important, though hindered by lack of experienced providers, work burden, and low demand. Future efforts to improve LARC access in Lilongwe must address both supply and demand-side barriers.

description: Pavlovian conditioned stimuli can acquire incentive motivational properties, and this phenomenon can be measured in animals using Pavlovian conditioned approach behavior. Drugs of abuse can influence the expression of this behavior, and nicotine in particular exhibits incentive amplifying effects. Both conditioned approach behavior and drug abuse rely on overlapping corticolimbic circuitry. We hypothesize that the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) regulates conditioned approach, and that one site of nicotine action is in the OFC where it reduces cortical output. To test this, we repeatedly exposed rats to 0.4 mg/kg nicotine (s.c.) during training and then pharmacologically inactivated the lateral OFC or performed in vivo electrophysiological recordings of lateral OFC neurons in the presence or absence of nicotine. In Experiment 1, animals were trained in a Pavlovian conditioning paradigm and behavior was evaluated after inactivation of the OFC by microinfusion of the GABA agonists baclofen and muscimol. In Experiment 2, we monitored phasic firing of OFC neurons during Pavlovian conditioning sessions. Nicotine reliably enhanced conditioned responding to the conditioned cue, and inactivation of the OFC reduced conditioned responding, especially the sign-tracking response. OFC neurons exhibited phasic excitations to cue presentation and during goal tracking, and nicotine acutely blunted this phasic neuronal firing. When nicotine was withheld, both conditioned responding and phasic firing in the OFC returned to the level of controls. These results suggest that the OFC is recruited for the expression of conditioned responses, and that nicotine acutely influences this behavior by reducing phasic firing in the OFC.

description: Microraft arrays have been used to screen and then isolate adherent and non-adherent cells with very high efficiency and excellent viability; however, manual screening and isolation limits the throughput and utility of the technology. In this work, novel hardware and software were developed to automate the microraft array platform. The developed analysis software identified microrafts on the array with greater than 99% sensitivity and cells on the microrafts with 100% sensitivity. The software enabled time-lapse imaging and the use of temporally varying characteristics as sort criteria. The automated hardware released microrafts with 98% efficiency and collected released microrafts with 100% efficiency. The automated system was used to examine the temporal variation in EGFP expression in cells transfected with CRISPR-Cas9 components for gene editing. Of 11,499 microrafts possessing a single cell, 220 microrafts were identified as possessing temporally varying EGFP-expression. Candidate cells (n=172) were released and collected from the microraft array and screened for the targeted gene mutation. Two cell colonies were successfully gene edited demonstrating the desired mutation.

description: Binary classification is a common statistical learning problem in which a model is estimated on a set of covariates for some outcome, indicating the membership of one of two classes. In the literature, there exists a distinction between hard and soft classification. In soft classification, the conditional class probability is modeled as a function of the covariates. In contrast, hard classification methods only target the optimal prediction boundary. While hard and soft classification methods have been studied extensively, not much work has been performed to compare the actual tasks of hard and soft classification. In this paper, we propose a spectrum of statistical learning problems that span the hard and soft classification tasks based on fitting multiple decision rules to the data. By doing so, we reveal a novel collection of learning tasks of increasing complexity. We study the problems using the framework of large‐margin classifiers and a class of piecewise linear convex surrogates, for which we derive statistical properties and a corresponding sub‐gradient descent algorithm. We conclude by applying our approach to simulation settings and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) dataset from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) study.
Reflux Incidence among Exclusively Breast Milk Fed Infants: Differences of Feeding at Breast versus Pumped Milk

description: The practice of feeding infants expressed breast milk is increasing in the United States, but the impacts on infant and maternal health are still understudied. This study examines the monthly incidence of regurgitation (gastro-esophageal reflux) in exclusively breast milk fed infants from ages two to six months. Among infants whose mothers participated in the Infant Feeding Practices II Study (IFPS II; 2005-2007), data on reflux and feeding mode were collected by monthly questionnaires. A longitudinal, repeated measures analysis was used, with feeding mode lagged by one month in order to compare reflux incidence among infants fed directly at the breast to infants receiving pumped breast milk. Mothers in both feeding groups had similar characteristics, although a greater proportion feeding at least some pumped milk were primiparous. The number of exclusively breastfed infants decreased steadily between months 2 and 6, although the proportion fed at the breast remained similar over time. An association between feeding mode and reflux incidence was not found; however, the analyses were limited by a small number of reported reflux cases. More studies are needed to further explain the relationship between different feeding modes and infant reflux.

description: In both observational studies and randomized trials with noncompliance, unmeasured confounding may exist which may bias treatment effect estimates. Instrumental variables (IV) are a popular technique for addressing such confounding, enabling consistent estimation of causal effects. This paper proposes nonparametric IV estimators for censored time to event data that may be subject to competing risks. A simple, plug-in estimator is introduced using nonparametric estimators of the cumulative incidence function, with confidence intervals derived using asymptotic theory. To provide an overall test of the treatment effect, an integrated weighted difference statistic is suggested, which is applicable to data with and without competing risks. Simulation studies demonstrate that the methods perform well with realistic samples sizes. The methods are applied to assess the effect of infant or maternal antiretroviral therapy on transmission of HIV from mother to child via breastfeeding using data from a large, recently completed randomized trial in Malawi where noncompliance with assigned treatment may confound treatment effect estimates.

description: Cleft lip and palate is a very common condition which is globally undertreated. This case report shows how cleft lip surgery can transform patient’s lives, self-perception, and their self-esteem through a visionary and adaptive leadership of a few social workers and medical doctors in resource constrained settings. The case report also shows that when treated, the benefits to the patient and their family are lifelong and disproportionately large compared to the degree of effort and cost of doing the reconstruction; and puts forth the case for educating physicians to maximize their societal benefit through work in resource-constrained settings.

description: While social movement scholarship has emphasized the role of activists in socially constructing grievances, we contend that material adversity is a reoccurring precondition of anti-state mobilization. We test the effect of economic decline on the count of large-scale, anti-government demonstrations and riots. Using multiple sources of newspaper reports of contentious events across 145 countries during the period 1960-2006, we find a statistically significant negative relationship between economic growth and the number of contentious events, controlling for a variety of state-governance, demographic, and media characteristics. We find that the effect is strongest under conditions of extreme economic decline and in non-democracies. These findings highlight the need for social movement scholars to take seriously the role of economic performance as an important factor that enables mobilization.

description: I argue that we can understand the de se by employing the subjective mode of presentation or, if one’s ontology permits it, by defending an abundant ontology of perspectival personal properties or facts. I do this in the context of a discussion of Cappelen and Dever’s recent criticisms of the de se. Then, I discuss the distinctive role of the first personal perspective in discussions about empathy, rational deference, and self-understanding, and develop a way to frame the problem of lacking prospective access to your future self as a problem with your capacity to imaginatively empathize with your (possible) future selves.

description: Parkinson's disease (PD) is an overwhelming neurodegenerative disorder caused by deterioration of a neurotransmitter, known as dopamine. Lack of this chemical messenger impairs several brain regions and yields various motor and non-motor symptoms. Incidence of PD is predicted to double in the next two decades, which urges more research to focus on its early diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, we propose an approach to diagnose PD using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Specifically, we first introduce a joint feature-sample selection (JFSS) method for selecting an optimal subset of samples and features, to learn a reliable diagnosis model. The proposed JFSS model effectively discards poor samples and irrelevant features. As a result, the selected features play an important role in PD characterization, which will help identify the most relevant and critical imaging biomarkers for PD. Then, a robust classification framework is proposed to simultaneously de-noise the selected subset of features and samples, and learn a classification model. Our model can also de-noise testing samples based on the cleaned training data. Unlike many previous works that perform de-noising in an unsupervised manner, we perform supervised de-noising for both training and testing data, thus boosting the diagnostic accuracy. Experimental results on both synthetic and publicly available PD datasets show promising results. To evaluate the proposed method, we use the popular Parkinson's progression markers initiative (PPMI) database. Our results indicate that the proposed method can differentiate between PD and normal control (NC), and outperforms the competing methods by a relatively large margin. It is noteworthy to mention that our proposed framework can also be used for diagnosis of other brain disorders. To show this, we have also conducted experiments on the widely-used ADNI database. The obtained results indicate that our proposed method can identify the imaging biomarkers and diagnose the disease with favorable accuracies compared to the baseline methods.

description: We model a periodic chemostat with allelopathic growth inhibition. The operating parameters including the nutrient supply, washout rate and nutrient uptake function are allowed to be periodic functions of time with commensurate periods. We show that competitive exclusion always holds in a periodic chemostat with allelopathic growth inhibition. We demonstrate that the species with the smallest break-even concentration survives the competition for a single growth-limiting nutrient independent of the initial conditions. Using Matlab software, we carry out numerical simulations to confirm the theoretical findings.

title: Classifications at the intersection of group and graph theory
Creators: name: Kaja, Eda
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2025

description: Motivated by open problems posed by Cameron and Cherlin, this thesis provides new illuminating classifications at the intersection of group and graph theory. We achieve these classifications by exploring the relationship between graphs and groups in both directions: one by investigating a specific graph that can be defined on a group, and the other by investigating the structure of the automorphism groups of certain graphs.

In more detail, on the one hand, we employ a combination of graph-theoretic techniques and group properties to obtain classifications of certain finite groups. The work focuses on particular forbidden induced subgraphs of the power graph. The power graph encodes information on powers of elements within a group. We show that forbidding induced paths of length four in the power graph reveals strong restrictions on centralizers, whereas forbidding induced cycles in the power graph forces certain relations between commuting elements in a group. Altogether, we provide classifications of the finite non-nilpotent power-cograph groups and finite simple power-chordal groups. These classifications answer two questions of Cameron.

Moreover, on the other hand, we use group-theoretic and combinatorial techniques to classify certain finite ultrahomogeneous colored binary relational structures. A relational structure is ultrahomogeneous if every isomorphism of finite induced substructures extends to an automorphism of the whole structure. We first classify the finite ultrahomogeneous binary relational structures with one asymmetric binary relation and arbitrarily many unary relations, that is, we classify the finite vertex-colored oriented ultrahomogeneous graphs. The classification comprises several general methods with which directed graphs can be combined or extended to create new ultrahomogeneous graphs. Our main technique is a technical tool that characterizes precisely under which conditions two binary relational structures with disjoint unary relations can be combined to form a larger ultrahomogeneous structure.

Furthermore, we develop a practical algorithm to enumerate all finite ultrahomogeneous edge-colored graphs up to a specified order. As input, the algorithm can take either a list of all coherent configurations or all transitive permutation groups. Efficiency is achieved by pruning wreath products quickly. We determine the number of objects up to isomorphism for orders up to 34. These two results give a partial answer to a general question of Cherlin that asks for a classification of colored ultrahomogeneous graphs.
Stimulant Use Disorder Among a Small Population of Migrant Agricultural Workers in Eastern North Carolina

description: This study examines the prevalence and patterns of stimulant use, particularly methamphetamine and cocaine use, among migrant and seasonal agricultural workers (MSAW). We conducted surveys with fifty-five male agricultural workers in tobacco cultivation in Eastern North Carolina. Qualitative data reveal that factors such as work-related stress, social isolation, and lack of access to healthcare and support services influenced substance use. The data found in this study also demonstrated significantly higher levels of concern regarding stimulant use than actual reported levels of use. These findings underscore the need for more research to address the unique challenges faced by migrant and seasonal agricultural workers regarding substance use. Our study contributes to the growing body of literature on occupational health disparities and highlights the urgent need for comprehensive strategies to support this vulnerable workforce.

The Balletto suites in the choreographic manuals of Fabritio Caroso and Cesare Negri: a study of danced suites in Italy during the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries

description: This study focuses on the danced suites described in the manuals of two prominent sixteenth-century Italian dancing masters, Fabritio Caroso and Cesare Negri. Caroso produced two manuals: Il Ballarino (Venice, 1581) and La Nobiltà di Dame (Venice, 1600, 1605). Negri wrote one, Le Gratie d’Amore (Milan, 1602; reissued as Nuove Inventioni di balli in 1604). Together, these three dance manuals contain choreographic instructions and music for a total of one hundred and seventy-two compositions, some of which are discrete dances, while others are composite works consisting of two or more different dance types presented in the manner of a suite. It is the suites—the majority of which are subtitled “balletto,” hence the moniker “balletto suites”—that are the focus of this dissertation.
The present study has the following goals: the first is to reconstruct the choreographies of the suites. This task, in addition to serving as a contribution to the field of performance practice of historical dance and dance music, is a prerequisite for the subsequent goals. The second is to determine the musical and choreographic characteristics of the individual movements (mostly dance types) that make up such suites. It is hoped that an understanding of the steps, step combinations, and spatial arrangements—that is, the choreographic syntax—of Caroso’s and Negri’s dances will lead to a better understanding of some of the most popular dance types of the period, as well as assist choreographers and theatre directors today in choreographing dances in period style. The third goal (which draws on the results of the first two) is to explore the possible tempo relationships between the movements, since the choice of tempo is one of the most important considerations when performing music that accompanies dancing. While these three goals all serve a practical purpose, namely the performance of the choreographies and music of the dance suites, throughout this study I have tried as far as possible to bring in evidence from contemporaneous music theorists and practitioners, so that a fourth goal was to situate the information provided by the dancing masters regarding dance-music relationships in a broader context.

The 'work' of art: The National Gallery of Victoria Travelling Scholarship, 1887-1932
Creators: name: Monash University Theses

Publisher: name: Figshare
Year: 2016
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis provides a history of the National Gallery of Victoria Travelling Scholarship from 1887 until 1932, when it was won successively by seven men and nine women. The recurrent theme is that of art as 'work' and of an art education as a vocational preparation.
For men, the Scholarship promised an advanced education which would launch a career and confer professional and social status. Some remained expatriates and, as portraitists, established minor reputations abroad. Others returned to make their mark as artists, represented in institutional collections and included in classic accounts of Australian art. For women the outcomes were less predictable. Their success indicated that, as students, their abilities were acknowledged ; but educational opportunity did not produce the same vocational outcomes as it did for men. Nor was women's art as readily accepted at an institutional level, tending instead to remain invisible within private collections. The rediscovery of these women artists has consequently been an important component of this project.
The works created for Scholarship competitions absorbed established aesthetic practices and so perpetuated accepted standards. Yet, by sending students abroad and exposing them to alternative influences, the Scholarship also functioned as a catalyst for change. It did not produce any 'great' artists, but it generated works which have enriched the Melbourne collection; and it historically documented the shift from fin de siècle styles to the emergence of early modernist art.
