description: This study tested the usability of course pages designed by the Instructional Services  Department at UNC Libraries. Course pages are tailored web pages developed by a UNC  librarian for a specific course to highlight resources and services available through the  UNC Libraries for that course. Students can access these pages from a link within  Blackboard, the course management system used by UNC. The study found that course  pages are more effective in allowing students to access library resources then the library  home page. The results also suggested a few changes that need to be made to optimize  the usability of the course pages.

description: In order to understand the role that the Internet plays in international collaborative research in molecular biology between scientists in Japan and those in other countries, an empirical study based on bibliometric study dealing with international co-authored articles and a survey for corresponding authors of the articles was conducted. As a result of the international collaborative research, the international co-authored articles increased. The influence of the Internet to the outcome was not clear: factors (e.g., existing personal networks) which initiated international collaborative research were separate from the Internet; however, information technologies relying on the Internet were recognized as important communication tools in international collaborative research and database tools which were crucial for molecular biology research. The finding indicates that the Internet as one kind of revolution of information technology is not a cause of international collaborative research; however, it is necessary technology to conduct international collaborative research.

description: General equilibrium equations in economics play the same role with many-body Newtonian equations in physics. Accordingly, each solution of the general equilibrium equations can be regarded as a possible microstate of the economic system. Since Arrow's Impossibility Theorem and Rawls' principle of social fairness will provide a powerful support for the hypothesis of equal probability, then the principle of maximum entropy is available in a just and equilibrium economy so that an income distribution will occur spontaneously (with the largest probability). Remarkably, some scholars have observed such an income distribution in some democratic countries, e.g. USA. This result implies that the hypothesis of equal probability may be only suitable for some "fair" systems (economic or physical systems). From this meaning, the non-equilibrium systems may be "unfair" so that the hypothesis of equal probability is unavailable.

description: Library research and instruction departments are increasingly focused on improving and expanding their online subject guides. This case study examines analytic data from one year of subject guide use at a Research-I institution. A sample of over 110 total subject guides was analyzed. The subject guides were examined for indicators of information load, as measured by number of total resources on the multi-tab subject guides and number of pages in each subject guide. Resources in individual guides ranged in number from under ten to several thousand. The analytic data on the guides provides information on how students and other university affiliates used the guides, including time spent in each guide and page views. By correlating the number of resources and pages with the analytic data, preliminary conclusions about best practices for information load in subject guides were drawn, such as minimizing the number of pages in a guide.

description: This is a follow-up study of a work by Kramers et al. (2013) on an unusual diamond-rich rock found in the SW side of the Libyan Desert Glass strewn field. This pebble, called Hypatia, is composed of almost pure carbon. Transmission Electron Microscopy and X-ray diffraction results reveal that Hypatia is made of defect-rich diamond containing lonsdaleite and deformation bands. These characteristics are compatible with an impact origin on Earth and/or in space. We analyzed concentrations and isotopic compositions of all five noble gases and nitrogen in several mg sized Hypatia samples. These data confirm that Hypatia is extra-terrestrial. The sample is rich in trapped noble gases with an isotopic composition close to the meteoritic Q component. 40Ar/36Ar ratios in individual steps are as low as 0.4. Concentrations of cosmic-ray produced 21Ne correspond to a nominal cosmic-ray exposure age of ca. 0.1 Myr if produced in a typical m-sized meteoroid. Such an atypically low nominal exposure age suggests high shielding in a considerably larger body. In addition to the Xe-Q composition, an excess of radiogenic 129Xe (from the decay of extinct 129I) is observed (129Xe/132Xe = 1.18 +/- 0.03). Two N components are present, an isotopically heavy component (δ15N = +20 permil) released at low temp. and a major light component (δ15N = -110 permil) at higher temp. This disequilibrium in N suggests that the diamonds in Hypatia were formed in space. Our data are broadly consistent with concentrations and isotopic compositions of noble gases in at least three different types of carbon-rich meteoritic materials. However, Hypatia does not seem to be related to any of these materials, but may have sampled a similar cosmochemical reservoir. Our study does not confirm the presence of exotic noble gases that led Kramers et al. to propose that Hypatia is a remnant of a comet that impacted the Earth.

The results of the study indicate that despite a fair amount of heterogeneity - some duties and required or desired skills/experiences appear in only a small minority of the position descriptions - all of the positions have an overarching similarity, one that brings similar duties and a similar mindset to the position. Nonetheless, the differences from school to school are significant enough that is difficult to give a cogent outline of the position with the same confidence that we can for other traditional library positions.

description: Optical switches offer a promising solution for routing optical-fiber based signals which are popular within the telecommunications industry. The project presented here investigated the possibility of utilizing a large displacement electrostatic comb-drive actuator to permit a single input signal to be routed to one of multiple output optical ports. A review of the literature revealed several solution possibilities that have been explored in the past; however, the majority of the multi-port solutions use complicated actuator arrays to achieve the necessary routing capability. By using a single degree of freedom system, the complexity of both the manufacturing process as well as the control method for the final system can be simplified. Presented here is a novel design for an optical switch including the fabrication process, mask layout, and packaging method necessary to realize this design as a real world application.

description: This paper deals with the problem of adaptive multidimensional/multichannel signal detection in homogeneous Gaussian disturbance with unknown covariance matrix and structured deterministic interference. The aforementioned problem corresponds to a generalization of the well-known Generalized Multivariate Analysis of Variance (GMANOVA). In this first part of the work, we formulate the considered problem in canonical form and, after identifying a desirable group of transformations for the considered hypothesis testing, we derive a Maximal Invariant Statistic (MIS) for the problem at hand. Furthermore, we provide the MIS distribution in the form of a stochastic representation. Finally, strong connections to the MIS obtained in the open literature in simpler scenarios are underlined.

description: At the time of the attacks on September 11, 2001, little known information was available to the public. It was an event that was without precedent and led to a scrambling for clear and known information from trusted figures and institutions. It is the intention of this paper to examine the impact that September 11 had on the professional discussions of librarians. The paper asks, "Have the post-September 11 exigencies brought the practice of librarianship into tension with the personal convictions of librarians?" Working on the investigator's assumption that socially aware librarians would be more vocal and reflective on the issues raised during a national crisis, this paper presents a case study of post September 11 comments posted to the Social Responsibilities Round Table Action Council - Listserv (SRRTAC-L). This paper offers a glimpse of how librarians respond to national crisis and the tensions that they face in their profession.

This fit extends the CTEQ proton PDFs to include the nuclear dependence using data on nuclei all the way up to 208^Pb. The uncertainties are determined using the Hessian method with an optimal rescaling of the eigenvectors to accurately represent the uncertainties for the chosen tolerance criteria. In addition to the Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) and Drell-Yan (DY) processes, we also include inclusive pion production data from RHIC to help constrain the nuclear gluon PDF. Furthermore, we investigate the correlation of the data sets with specific nPDF flavor components, and asses the impact of individual experiments. We also provide comparisons of the nCTEQ15 set with recent fits from other groups.

description: Film studies scholars are interdisciplinary scholars, a blend between the fine arts discipline and humanities discipline. Unlike art or drama, film scholars in universities do not usually reside in dedicated film programs, but inside larger departments such as English or Communication. Historically, the primary sources of film studies have been neglected acquisitions by research libraries. In this study, 38 scholars from three research universities in North Carolina share the characteristics of film scholars. With these considerations, the library use characteristics of film scholars were investigated and compared to the library use patterns of humanist and fine arts faculty. The findings showed that the film scholars shared many library use characteristics with the humanist faculty with the following exceptions. The literature film scholars use is diverse and the faculty maintained their own subscriptions and collections. In addition, the respondents tended to use the Internet as a primary source of information more than humanist scholars.

description: We introduce a method for automated temporal segmentation of human motion data into distinct actions and compositing motion primitives based on self-similar structures in the motion sequence. We use neighbourhood graphs for the partitioning and the similarity information in the graph is further exploited to cluster the motion primitives into larger entities of semantic significance. The method requires no assumptions about the motion sequences at hand and no user interaction is required for the segmentation or clustering. In addition, we introduce a feature bundling preprocessing technique to make the segmentation more robust to noise, as well as a notion of motion symmetry for more refined primitive detection. We test our method on several sensor modalities, including markered and markerless motion capture as well as on electromyograph and accelerometer recordings. The results highlight our system's capabilities for both segmentation and for analysis of the finer structures of motion data, all in a completely unsupervised manner.

description: Legal materials have become accessible online in several different settings, and many federal courts have endeavored to provide access to court opinions on their own Websites.  As case law constitutes a large and vital portion of the American legal system, increased access to this ever-growing body of law is an important effort.  However, it matters much less that greater access to court opinions has been provided if the opinions provided are not in fact true representations of the actual documents filed by the court.      The purpose of this paper is to study the current availability of authenticated online federal court opinions by surveying the opinions offered by the federal courts on their own, court-hosted Websites.  At this time, no federal court Website takes any visual measures to authenticate the opinions it provides to users.

description: The density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method, which can deal with a large active space composed of tens of orbitals, is nowadays widely used as an efficient addition to traditional complete active space (CAS)-based approaches. In this paper, we present the DMRG algorithm with a multi-level (ML) control of the active space based on chemical intuition-based hierarchical orbital ordering, which is called as ML-DMRG with its self-consistent field variant ML-DMRG-SCF. Ground and excited state calculations of H2O, N2, indole, and Cr2 with comparisons to DMRG references using fixed number of kept states (M) illustrate that MLtype DMRG calculations can obtain noticeable efficiency gains. It is also shown that the orbital re-ordering based on hierarchical multiple active subspaces may be beneficial for reducing computational time for not only ML-DMRG calculations but also DMRG ones with fixed M values.

description: Grant funders are increasingly requiring documented data management plans that stipulate access to and preservation of research data. Few studies have researched the data management behavior of health sciences researchers since these requirements were implemented in the early 2010s. This paper explores data management behavior by researchers in health sciences setting. Through 11 interviews, researchers were asked about the processes and tools they use to share research data with teammates and withexternal researchers. They were also asked about any current practices that facilitate or result in long-term preservation of their data. The outcome of this study is that, while researchers are well versed in short-term management of their data throughout the lifetime of a research project, there is room to improve long-term preservation efforts. These findings may help inform information professionals about their outreach and approaches to facilitate data access and preservation that aligns with the requirements of research sponsors.
Improving object classification accuracy in Digital Holographic Microscopy
Creators: name: Bicsak, Barbara
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Digital Holographic Microscopy (DHM) is an emerging technology for classifying and counting cells and other
 microorganisms in biological samples in suspensions. A major advantage of the in-line DHM used in this project
 is that it allows volumetric imaging of samples with a relatively simple optical setup, thus reducing the need for
 sample preparation. Objects can be reconstructed in various focal planes using numerical methods, and the object
 in the resulting holograms can be classified using machine learning models. Due to the large variety of objects
 having diverse morphological properties, it is essential to capture as much information as possible for accurate
 classification. In this project, we explore various methods to obtain additional object information in order to
 enhance the classification accuracy of deep learning models. These may include bright-field/fluorescent imaging,
 various dying methods, or dynamic imaging.

description: A unified description for the Bose and Fermi gases trapped in an external generic power law potential $U=\sum_{i=1} ^d c_i |\frac{x_i}{a_i}|^{n_i}$ is presented using the grandpotential of the system in $d$ dimensional space. The thermodynamic quantities of the quantum gases are derived from the grand potential. An equivalence between the trapped Bose and Fermi gases is constructed in one dimension ($d=1$) using the Landen relation. It is also found that the established equivalence between the ideal free Bose and Fermi gases in $d=2$ (M. H. Lee, Phys. Rev. E 55, 1518 (1997)) is lost when external potential is applied.

Surveys
Librarianship as a profession

description: This study used the Delphi method to explore the perceptions and opinions of award-winning librarians on the changing skill set of their profession. 265 (64%) of Library Journal's 2002-2009 "Movers & Shakers" participated in an online survey in which they answered questions and rated how important particular skills would be to librarians in the future. Of these, 226 (86%) participated in a second survey in which they were shown results from the first survey and asked additional questions. The study's primary focus was the general librarian skill set, but it also addressed qualities of the Movers & Shakers as a group, specifically related to their skills. Risk-taking and flexibility were ranked as skills participants thought would be much more important to future librarians. The study's results may inform LIS education, professional development programs, and librarians' self-education.
Shielding $^2Σ$ ultracold dipolar molecular collisions with electric fields

description: The prospects for shielding ultracold, paramagnetic, dipolar molecules from inelastic and chemical collisions are investigated. Molecules placed in their first rotationally excited states are found to exhibit effective long-range repulsion for applied electric fields above a certain critical value, as previously shown for non-paramagnetic molecules. This repulsion can safely allow the molecules to scatter while reducing the risk of inelastic or chemically reactive collisions. Several molecular species of $^2Σ$ molecules of experimental interest -- RbSr, SrF, BaF, and YO -- are considered, and all are shown to exhibit orders of magnitude suppression in quenching rates in a sufficiently strong laboratory electric field. It is further shown that, for these molecules described by Hund's coupling case b, electronic and nuclear spins play the role of spectator with respect to the shielding.

Eye tracking

description: This study describes an eye tracking experiment conducted at the Interaction Design Lab of UNC-CH. This experiment focuses on identifying and analyzing user behavior and patterns when processing numeric table data in paper or PDF format. Eight sets of eye data were collected using the ASL 504 eye tracking system, and raw data were analyzed using EYENAL and FIXPLOT software.  Statistical literacy and familiarity with tables is an important factor in determining users' search performances. For both formats, table column and row headings account for nearly half of users' visual attention during search as as measured by fixation duration. In large tables, PDF files do not appear to be appropriate for browsing and searching, and footnotes seem hard to use. Simple manipulations over table data are helpful for users to get a better understanding of statistical tables.
Model Predictive Control of Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand Systems

description: In this paper we present a model predictive control (MPC) approach to optimize vehicle scheduling and routing in an autonomous mobility-on-demand (AMoD) system. In AMoD systems, robotic, self-driving vehicles transport customers within an urban environment and are coordinated to optimize service throughout the entire network. Specifically, we first propose a novel discrete-time model of an AMoD system and we show that this formulation allows the easy integration of a number of real-world constraints, e.g., electric vehicle charging constraints. Second, leveraging our model, we design a model predictive control algorithm for the optimal coordination of an AMoD system and prove its stability in the sense of Lyapunov. At each optimization step, the vehicle scheduling and routing problem is solved as a mixed integer linear program (MILP) where the decision variables are binary variables representing whether a vehicle will 1) wait at a station, 2) service a customer, or 3) rebalance to another station. Finally, by using real-world data, we show that the MPC algorithm can be run in real-time for moderately-sized systems and outperforms previous control strategies for AMoD systems.

Subject Guides

description: This paper analyzes the content of electronic subject guides in Literary Studies on academic library webservers, identifying standard features and establishing an overview of their design and content. It then examines these guides against the practice of Literary Studies. The sample for this study consists of subject guides from the top 30 academic libraries in the U.S., as ranked by the Association of Research Libraries. Twenty-seven libraries offer such guides, organized by departmental boundaries and traditional categories. These guides vary greatly in scope. Their arrangement of materials follows traditional, non-electronic organizing schemes. Overall, academic libraries have not integrated recent changes in Literary Studies into electronic subject guides.
An Empirical Study of the Impact of Subject Headings on Information Performance - Investigation of Nursing Domain Users

Medical Subject Headings (MeSH)

description: This paper is designed to understand and identify a user's search, in a particular database, when using keyword search and subject headings search, while at the same time emphasizing real life relevance. This study was conducted using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) in the Medline databases for 7 nursing domain users at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Search performance using keyword, subject headings and combined search methods was assessed from a user's perspective, based on transaction logs, relevance assessments and interviews. Any mismatch between the user's keyword search statement and subject headings was analyzed to discover the relationship with precision, recall and number of retrieved records. The relationships among variables were compared.
A Unifying Framework for Adaptive Radar Detection in Homogeneous plus Structured Interference-Part II: Detectors Design

description: This paper deals with the problem of adaptive multidimensional/multichannel signal detection in homogeneous Gaussian disturbance with unknown covariance matrix and structured (unknown) deterministic interference. The aforementioned problem extends the well-known Generalized Multivariate Analysis of Variance (GMANOVA) tackled in the open literature. In a companion paper, we have obtained the Maximal Invariant Statistic (MIS) for the problem under consideration, as an enabling tool for the design of suitable detectors which possess the Constant False-Alarm Rate (CFAR) property. Herein, we focus on the development of several theoretically-founded detectors for the problem under consideration. First, all the considered detectors are shown to be function of the MIS, thus proving their CFARness property. Secondly, coincidence or statistical equivalence among some of them in such a general signal model is proved. Thirdly, strong connections to well-known simpler scenarios found in adaptive detection literature are established. Finally, simulation results are provided for a comparison of the proposed receivers.

description: This study examines the knowledge, perceptions, and compliance of fisheries stakeholders with the seasonal fishery closure implemented in the Visayan Sea, Philippines. We interviewed 235 municipal fisheries stakeholders composed of municipal fishers, fish dryers, fish traders/fish brokers (regulated group) and local government units, Philippine National Police-Maritime Group/Philippine Coast Guard, and fish wardens (regulator group) in 12 coastal towns surrounding the Visayan Sea. Data from interviews were complemented by focus group discussions. Overall, municipal fisheries stakeholders have a fair knowledge about the SFC. The regulated group in the municipalities within Panay Island are more knowledgeable about the SFC compared to their counterparts in other areas. There is a positive correlation between the regulated group’s knowledge and perceptions about, and compliance, with the SFC. The lack of alternative livelihoods, uneven implementation of the SFC and poverty also influence compliance. Given our findings, addressing these factors is crucial to effective fisheries management.
On Arithmetic Functions Related to Iterates of the Schemmel Totient Functions

subject: 11N64, 11B83

description: We begin by introducing an interesting class of functions, known as the Schemmel totient functions, that generalizes the Euler totient function. For each Schemmel totient function $L_m$, we define two new functions, denoted $R_m$ and $H_m$, that arise from iterating $L_m$. Roughly speaking, $R_m$ counts the number of iterations of $L_m$ needed to reach either $0$ or $1$, and $H_m$ takes the value (either $0$ or $1$) that the iteration trajectory eventually reaches. Our first major result is a proof that, for any positive integer $m$, the function $H_m$ is completely multiplicative. We then introduce an iterate summatory function, denoted $D_m$, and define the terms $D_m$-deficient, $D_m$-perfect, and $D_m$-abundant. We proceed to prove several results related to these definitions, culminating in a proof that, for all positive even integers $m$, there are infinitely many $D_m$-abundant numbers. Many open problems arise from the introduction of these functions and terms, and we mention a few of them, as well as some numerical results.
