description: Based on the survey data of 150 peasant households in typical Karst mountainous area in the year 2009, causations, characteristics and influence factors of the concurrent-business behavior of peasant households during planting structure adjustment are analyzed. Result shows that there is significant positive correlation between the concurrent-business income and the household income of farmers. And the concurrent-business behavior has the tendency to be popular among the young farmers with the characteristics of relative concentration, strong will of farmers and the significant impact of education degree on the concurrent-business income. Information, capital, skill, and market awareness are the main factors affecting the concurrent-business behavior of peasant households. Countermeasures to optimize the concurrent-business behavior of peasant households are put forward, such as strengthening the skills training for farmers to improve the cultural quality of peasant households, establishing modern rural financial service system to offer capital support for the development of peasant households, setting up information base of rural labor force to provide more information and channels for the concurrent-business behavior of peasant households, and enhancing the cultivation of farmers’ market awareness to improve their ability to adapt to market economy.

description: Upstream of shocks, the foreshock is filled with hot ions. When these ions are concentrated and thermalized around a discontinuity, a diamagnetic cavity bounded by compressional boundaries, referred to as a foreshock transient, forms. Sometimes, the upstream compressional boundary can further steepen into a secondary shock, which has been observed to accelerate particles and contribute to the primary shock acceleration. However, secondary shock formation conditions and processes are not fully understood. Using particle-in-cell simulations, we reveal how secondary shocks are formed. From 1D simulations, we show that electric fields play a critical role in shaping the shock's magnetic field structure, as well as in coupling the energy of hot ions to that of the shock. We demonstrate that larger thermal speed and concentration ratio of hot ions favors the formation of a secondary shock. From a more realistic 2D simulation, we examine how a discontinuity interacts with foreshock ions leading to the formation of a foreshock transient and a secondary shock. Our results imply that secondary shocks are more likely to occur at primary shocks with higher Mach number. With the secondary shock's previously proven ability to accelerate particles in cooperation with a planetary bow shock, it is even more appealing to consider them in particle acceleration of high Mach number astrophysical shocks.

description: In a cosmological phase transition in theories that admit Q-balls there is a value of the soliton charge above which the soliton becomes unstable and expands, converting space to the true vacuum, much like a critical bubble in the case of ordinary tunneling. Here I consider the effects of gravity on these solitons and I calculate the lowest gravitational corrections to the critical radius and charge.

description: On the basis of the analytical frame of discrimination, the thesis establishes a model of transfer of rural labour forces into city, and researches the impact of rural labour forces transfer on urban-rural income. The results show that the transfer of rural labour forces into city can increase urban-rural income and bridge the income gap between city and village to a certain extent. However, the capital stock of city in China is greatly more than that of the village, so the rural labour forces transfer cannot eliminate the urban-rural income gap completely. In order to elevate the rural income level in China and narrow urban-rural income gap, the government should paint a picture with two brushes at the same time: on one hand, the government should promote the transfer of rural labour forces into city, and change the status quo of dual urban-rural labour forces market structure; on the other hand, the government should increase the input in rural areas and promote the increase of rural capital stock so as to further increase rural residents' income in the process of labour forces transfer.

description: We study experimentally the slow growth of a single crack in a fibrous material and observe stepwise growth dynamics. We model the material as a lattice where the crack is pinned by elastic traps and grows due to thermally activated stress fluctuations. In agreement with experimental data we find that the distribution of step sizes follows sub-critical point statistics with a power law (exponent 3/2) and a stress-dependent exponential cut-off diverging at the critical rupture threshold.

Spirituality and qulity of life in hemodialysis patients
Creators: name: White, Rita Yim Fong
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The accuracy and efficacy of the diagnosis and the renal replacement modalities for end stage renal disease are becoming increasingly sophisticated, but the psychospiritual impact of the disease is still unclear. Although there were studies supporting the relationship of spirituality and quality of life in various chronic conditions, little information regarding this relationship is known for chronic hemodialysis patients. This descriptive correlational study was done to describe the spirituality and health-related quality of life of adult long-term hemodialysis patients, and to examine the relationship between spirituality and health-related quality of life in these patients. The stress, appraisal, and coping theory developed by Lazarus and Folkman (1984) served as the theoretical framework. A convenience sample of 88 subjects who received hemodialysis for over three months completed the Kidney Disease Quality of Life Short Form (KDQOL-SF™) questionnaire and the revised Spiritual Involvement and Beliefs Scale (SD3S-R) during one hemodialysis treatment session. Overall, these long-term hemodialysis patients perceived a moderately low level of spirituality. The low spirituality appeared to be related to the persistence of health problems over time and that the subjects were concerned with physiological needs rather than being focused on their spiritual life. The subjects perceived a moderately low level of health-related quality of life and were worse in physical than in mental and emotional dimensions. There was no statistical correlation between the perception of spirituality and health-related quality of life (r = . 14, p_ < .05). Patients with high scores of spirituality appeared to perceive better general health and higher energy level. The lack of correlation between spirituality and quality of life appeared to be related to the nature of the sample and the psychometric quality of the tool used to measure spirituality. Based on the findings, suggestions are made for new directions for the provision of effective health care for hemodialysis patients. It is recommended that the tool used to measure spirituality be strengthened, a random selection from a larger population in multiple hemodialysis centers be used, and the data collection be done between, rather than during dialysis treatments. A longitudinal approach would lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the relationship between spirituality and quality of life over the course of patients' experiences with chronic kidney disease.

description: Some important concepts in the nonstandard analysis theory of turbulence are presented in this article. The structure of point, on which differential equations are defined, is analyzed. The distinction between the uniform point and the non-uniform point, as well as between the standard point and the nonstandard point, is showed. A new kind of equations, which differ essentially from those in existent theory, is emphasized. These new equations can hold at non-uniform points. The applicability of the Navier-Stokes equations to turbulence is discussed. Some illustrations of the nonstandard analysis theory of turbulence are given too.

description: Using wide-field $^{13}$CO ($J=1-0$) data taken with the Nobeyama 45-m telescope, we investigate cloud structures of the infrared dark cloud complex in M17 with SCIMES. In total, we identified 118 clouds that contain 11 large clouds with radii larger than 1 pc. The clouds are mainly distributed in the two representative velocity ranges of 10 $-$ 20 km s$^{-1}$ and 30 $-$ 40 km s$^{-1}$. By comparing with the ATLASGAL catalog, we found that the majority of the $^{13}$CO clouds with 10 $-$ 20 km s$^{-1}$ and 30 $-$ 40 km s$^{-1}$ are likely located at distances of 2 kpc (Sagittarius arm) and 3 kpc (Scutum arm), respectively. Analyzing the spatial configuration of the identified clouds and their velocity structures, we attempt to reveal the origin of the cloud structure in this region. Here we discuss three possibilities: (1) overlapping with different velocities, (2) cloud oscillation, and (3) cloud-cloud collision. From the position-velocity diagrams, we found spatially-extended faint emission between $\sim$ 20 km s$^{-1}$ and $\sim$ 35 km s$^{-1}$, which is mainly distributed in the spatially-overlapped areas of the clouds. We also found that in some areas where clouds with different velocities overlapped, the magnetic field orientation changes abruptly. The distribution of the diffuse emission in the position-position-velocity space and the bending magnetic fields appear to favor the cloud-cloud collision scenario compared to other scenarios. In the cloud-cloud collision scenario, we propose that two $\sim$35 km s$^{-1}$ foreground clouds are colliding with clouds at $\sim$20 km s$^{-1}$ with a relative velocity of 15 km s$^{-1}$. These clouds may be substructures of two larger clouds having velocities of $\sim$ 35 km s$^{-1}$ ($\gtrsim 10^3 $ M$_{\odot}$) and $\sim$ 20 km s$^{-1}$ ($\gtrsim 10^4 $ M$_{\odot}$), respectively.

A pairing in homology and the category of linear complexes of tilting modules for a quasi-hereditary algebra

description: We show that there exists a natural non-degenerate pairing of the homomorphism space between two neighbor standard modules over a quasi-hereditary algebra with the first extension space between the corresponding costandard modules and vise versa. Investigation of this phenomenon leads to a family of pairings involving standard, costandard and tilting modules. In the graded case, under some "Koszul-like" assumptions (which we prove are satisfied for example for the blocks of the category $\mathcal{O}$), we obtain a non-degenerate pairing between certain graded homomorphism and graded extension spaces. This motivates the study of the category of linear tilting complexes for graded quasi-hereditary algebras. We show that, under assumptions, similar to those mentioned above, this category realizes the module category for the Koszul dual of the Ringel dual of the original algebra. As a corollary we obtain that under these assumptions the Ringel and Koszul dualities commute.

description: Electricity subsidies for farmers are an expensive legacy of past development policies. The result is overuse of both energy and water in groundwater-irrigated agriculture—threatening the financial viability of the power sector and the future of the groundwater resource itself, along with the livelihoods of the millions who depend on it. The most popular solution is the metered tariff, promoted by international donors and many of India’s state governments. But metering is the ideal solution only if the cost of metering and billing 14 million scattered, small users in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh is ignored. Easier, more feasible and more beneficial in the short run in many parts of South Asia would be the use of a rational flat tariff, which avoids the transaction costs and strong farmer opposition associated with metering. The flat-tariff option has been ignored because, in its current incarnation, it has proved a complete failure. However, combined with intelligent power supply rationing, it is a logical, viable alternative which could cut wasteful groundwater use by 12-18 km3 per year in Western and Peninsular India alone. The approach would involve (1) gradually raising tariffs to cut power utility losses; (2) supplying farms with fewer hours of power per year, but ensuring a quality power supply during periods of moisture stress; and (3) metering at the feeder level to measure and monitor farm power use, to allow good management.
Pro-poor irrigation management transfer?

description: Driven largely by financial pressures, many governments are transferring full or partial management responsibility for irrigation systems from government agencies to farmers organized into Water User Associations (WUAs). In most cases, improving the situation of poor farmers has been a secondary aim of this reform. But there is increasing evidence that Irrigation Management Transfer (IMT) can actually negatively impact the situation of poor farmers—and, in extreme cases, can even cause the collapse of irrigation schemes. New research assessed two different IMT programs: The Gujarat Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) program, one of the first IMT programs in India, and the Andhra Pradesh Farmers’ Management of Irrigation Systems (APFMIS) program, which with its sweeping reforms has served as an example worldwide. This research suggests that even if the IMT process contains all the right ingredients on paper—such as strong voting rights for farmers, irrespective of farm size—poor farmers are less informed on the whole about their rights and so tend to lose out on many of the potential benefits of IMT. The study showed that in both Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh poor farmers tended to participate more in the repair and rehabilitation work, while the larger farmers were more involved in the decision-making process—dominating the meetings and committees (see fig.1). To make IMT more pro-poor, and to ensure the viability of WUAs, which depend heavily on the labor contribution of small farmers, policy makers should take steps to ensure that poor farmers participate equally in decision-making processes. These steps include raising awareness and access to information, and making the election of WUA committees (which favor the village elite) more competitive and transparent. Monitoring participation in WUA activities and decision making against a reliable, and easily available indicator of poverty—farm size—is a key in evaluating equity trends over time.

description: Ein gemischtes lineares Layout eines Graphen ist eine totale Ordnung seiner Knoten, so dass die Kanten als Elemente betrachtet werden können, die in dieser Reihenfolge mit den beiden Datenstrukturen eines Stapelspeichers und einer Warteschlange verarbeitet werden können. Layouts, die nur Stapelspeicher verwenden, werden als Bucheinbettungen bezeichnet, was ein weit erforschtes Thema ist und auch reine Warteschlangenlayouts finden viel Beachtung. Die Kombination dieser beiden Konzepte zur gleichen Zeit wird jedoch seltener verwendet. Die Literatur beschreibt viele Algorithmen, Eigenschaften und Ergebnisse für Layouts, die entweder aus Stapelspeichern oder Warteschlangen bestehen, aber oft fehlen die passenden Gegenstücke für gemischte Layouts. In dieser Diplomarbeit stellen wir neue Ergebnisse in den Bereichen Komplexität, Heuristiken und Zeichnungen für gemischte Layouts vor, die es vorher noch nicht gegeben hat oder die bestehende übertreffen. Um dies zu erreichen, haben wir zum einen bereits bestehende Methoden für reine Layouts wiederverwendet und zum anderen neue Ideen zur Lösung der Probleme eingeführt. Wir erwarten, dass diese Ergebnisse dazu beitragen werden gemischte lineare Layouts besser zu verstehen und es ermöglichen, diese für praktische Zwecke zu nutzen.
description: A mixed linear layout of a graph is a total order of its vertices in a way that the edges can be seen as elements that are processed in this order with a stack and a queue data structure. Layouts that only use stacks are known as book embeddings and is a widely researched topic. Queue layouts also receive much attention. However, the study of these two concepts in combination is less understood. The literature describes many algorithms, properties and results for layouts that consist of either stacks or queues but the adequate counterparts for mixed layouts are often missing. In this thesis, we introduce new results for computational hardness, heuristics and drawings for mixed linear layouts that have not existed before or outperform existing ones. To achieve this, we reused existing methods of linear layouts as well as introduced new ideas to tackle the problems. We expect that these results will help to understand mixed linear layouts better and use them for practical purposes.

description: Mobile cloud computing is an emerging field that is gaining popularity across borders at a rapid pace. Similarly, the field of health informatics is also considered as an extremely important field. This work observes the collaboration between these two fields to solve the traditional problem of extracting Electrocardiogram signals from trace reports and then performing analysis. The developed system has two front ends, the first dedicated for the user to perform the photographing of the trace report. Once the photographing is complete, mobile computing is used to extract the signal. Once the signal is extracted, it is uploaded into the server and further analysis is performed on the signal in the cloud. Once this is done, the second interface, intended for the use of the physician, can download and view the trace from the cloud. The data is securely held using a password-based authentication method. The system presented here is one of the first attempts at delivering the total solution, and after further upgrades, it will be possible to deploy the system in a commercial setting.

A female mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis parkinsonism dementia complex induced by cycad

description: Sex differences have been observed in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis parkinsonism dementia complex (ALS-PDC). ALS-PDC patients present with a combination of ALS, AD and PD symptoms and neuropathology post mortem. Previous studies have provided evidence for a link between ALSPDC and cycad seed (Cycas micronesica) consumption. Cycad seed consumption has been shown to induce ALS-PDC features in adult male mice. In a series of experiments, the present study examined whether 1) cycad seed consumption induces ALS-PDC features in female mice, 2) if the human sex difference is reflected in the cycad mouse model and 3) if there is a sex difference, whether it is due to progesterone and estrogen. 7 month-old CD-1 female mice were fed either a control diet or cycad seed washed by traditional methods and tested for motor abilities measured by leg extension reflex, gait length and wire hang. Lumbar spinal cord tissue was stained for anti-active capase-3, GFAP, Fluoro-Jade B and cresyl violet. The effects of cycad feeding were also compared in intact females and intact males in the second experiment, and females that were intact, ovariectomized, or ovariectomized with hormone replacement in the third experiment. The same battery of motor tests used in the first experiment was applied to the second and third experiments. In the first experiment, deficits on the wire hang test were found in cycad-fed mice. However, differences were not found on the other motor tests or histological assessments unlike previous studies using males. It is concluded that consumption of cycad does not induce motor deficits and histopathology in female mice as was previously seen in males. Differences between male and female mice fed cycad were found on the leg extension and wire hang tests. Ovariectomized females were found to have an altered motor pattern on the gait length and wire hang tests compared to intact and ovariectomized + estrogen and progesterone replaced females. Due to lack of control groups, conclusions cannot be made about the second and third experiments. A discussion of experimental design is provided.
The gender of job applicants : different standards for lack of competence?

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis reports on the results from an experiment designed to investigate a situation in which two applicants, a man and a woman, are assessed regarding their potential for an engineering position. The situation is one in which both applicants show low levels of performance; the decision for the participants is then whether these applicants merit special consideration, and whether one or both should be kept on the waiting list. In one case, the man is slightly better than the woman, in the other the situation is reversed, and in the third case, the two applicants show similar grades. One hundred sixty-five (81 men and 84 women) students participated in this study. Dependent measures include choice of applicant, potential competence and suitability, and suggested salary. Results indicate that, for the most part, participants responded to the difference in grades. There were however, some effects from gender of applicant and of participant. Regarding competence advantage and salary advantage, results strictly reflect the grade differences between the two applicants. Concerning choice and suitability advantage, however, effects from sex of applicant and of participant emerged, respectively. I propose that the differences across the results are due to the types of measures and the way they could have been understood by the participants. A thorough discussion of the results and their interpretation is presented. I assess these results in terms of recent trends towards equity of sex roles in our society.

description: We investigate the nature of the near-threshold enhancement in the ppbar invariant mass spectrum of the reaction J/Psi -> gamma ppbar reported recently by the BES Collaboration. Using the Juelich NNbar model we show that the mass dependence of the ppbar spectrum close to the threshold can be reproduced by the S-wave ppbar final state interaction in the isospin I=1 state within the Watson-Migdal approach. However, because of our poor knowledge of the NNbar interaction near threshold and of the J/Psi -> gamma ppbar reaction mechanism and in view of the controversal situation in the decay J/Psi -> pi0 ppbar, where no obvious signs of a ppbar final state interaction are seen, explanations other than final state interactions cannot be ruled out at the present stage.

description: Cognates are translation-equivalent words that are similar or even identical across languages in phonological and orthographic form. Previous research has shown that pictures of cognates are more easily named by bilinguals than non-cognates. However, such cognate facilitation may depend on the exact task demands and language control state a bilingual is in. To investigate further the mechanisms of cognate facilitation, we conducted Experiment 1 where we manipulated the frequency of cognates versus non-cognates within blocks of a L2 picture naming task. Consistent with our hypotheses, we found larger cognate facilitation in blocks with more cognates. In this follow-up (Experiment 2), our goal is 1) to replicate the observed larger cognate facilitation in majority cognate blocks and 2) to better understand the underlying cognitive mechanism behind it. To do the latter, participants will additionally engage in a L1 fragment completion task between L2 naming blocks, which includes “old” (translations of non-cognate words included in the L2 naming blocks) and “new” words, to measure how activation of L1 words may be adjusted during L2 naming in majority cognate vs. majority non-cognate blocks. We make predictions as to how L1 production of “old” and “new” words should differ, depending on the presumed underlying cognitive control processes (e.g., word-specific L1 inhibition or activation).

description: Two of the main paradigms used to build adaptive software employ different types of properties to capture relevant aspects of the system's run-time behavior. On the one hand, control systems consider properties that concern static aspects like stability, as well as dynamic properties that capture the transient evolution of variables such as settling time. On the other hand, self-adaptive systems consider mostly non-functional properties that capture concerns such as performance, reliability, and cost. In general, it is not easy to reconcile these two types of properties or identify under which conditions they constitute a good fit to provide run-time guarantees. There is a need of identifying the key properties in the areas of control and self-adaptation, as well as of characterizing and mapping them to better understand how they relate and possibly complement each other. In this paper, we take a first step to tackle this problem by: (1) identifying a set of key properties in control theory, (2) illustrating the formalization of some of these properties employing temporal logic languages commonly used to engineer self-adaptive software systems, and (3) illustrating how to map key properties that characterize self-adaptive software systems into control properties, leveraging their formalization in temporal logics. We illustrate the different steps of the mapping on an exemplar case in the cloud computing domain and conclude with identifying open challenges in the area.

description: Sensor noise sources cause differences in the signal recorded across pixels in a single image and across multiple images. This paper presents a Bayesian approach to decomposing and characterizing the sensor noise sources involved in imaging with digital cameras. A Bayesian probabilistic model based on the (theoretical) model for noise sources in image sensing is fitted to a set of a time-series of images with different reflectance and wavelengths under controlled lighting conditions. The image sensing model is a complex model, with several interacting components dependent on reflectance and wavelength. The properties of the Bayesian approach of defining conditional dependencies among parameters in a fully probabilistic model, propagating all sources of uncertainty in inference, makes the Bayesian modeling framework more attractive and powerful than classical methods for approaching the image sensing model. A feasible correspondence of noise parameters to their expected theoretical behaviors and well calibrated posterior predictive distributions with a small root mean square error for model predictions have been achieved in this study, thus showing that the proposed model accurately approximates the image sensing model. The Bayesian approach could be extended to formulate further components aimed at identifying even more specific parameters of the imaging process.

description: Multi-dimensional density of states provides a useful description of complex frustrated systems. Recent advances in Monte Carlo methods enable efficient calculation of the density of states and related quantities, which renew the interest in them. Here we calculate density of states on the plane (energy, magnetization) for an Ising Model with three-spin interactions on a random sparse network, which is a system of current interest both in physics of glassy systems and in the theory of error-correcting codes. Multicanonical Monte Carlo algorithm is successfully applied, and the shape of densities and its dependence on the degree of frustration is revealed. Efficiency of multicanonical Monte Carlo is also discussed with the shape of a projection of the distribution simulated by the algorithm.

Reflected entropy for free scalars

description: We continue our study of reflected entropy, $R(A,B)$, for Gaussian systems. In this paper we provide general formulas valid for free scalar fields in arbitrary dimensions. Similarly to the fermionic case, the resulting expressions are fully determined in terms of correlators of the fields, making them amenable to lattice calculations. We apply this to the case of a $(1+1)$-dimensional chiral scalar, whose reflected entropy we compute for two intervals as a function of the cross-ratio, comparing it with previous holographic and free-fermion results. For both types of free theories we find that reflected entropy satisfies the conjectural monotonicity property $R(A,BC) \geq R(A,B)$. Then, we move to $(2+1)$ dimensions and evaluate it for square regions for free scalars, fermions and holography, determining the very-far and very-close regimes and comparing them with their mutual information counterparts. In all cases considered, both for $(1+1)$- and $(2+1)$-dimensional theories, we verify that the general inequality relating both quantities, $R(A,B)\geq I(A,B)$, is satisfied. Our results suggest that for general regions characterized by length-scales $L_A\sim L_B\sim L$ and separated a distance $\ell$, the reflected entropy in the large-separation regime ($x\equiv L/\ell \ll 1$) behaves as $R(x) \sim - I(x) \log x$ for general CFTs in arbitrary dimensions.

description: Recently, single gray/RGB image super-resolution reconstruction task has been extensively studied and made significant progress by leveraging the advanced machine learning techniques based on deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs). However, there has been limited technical development focusing on single hyperspectral image super-resolution due to the high-dimensional and complex spectral patterns in hyperspectral image. In this paper, we make a step forward by investigating how to adapt state-of-the-art residual learning based single gray/RGB image super-resolution approaches for computationally efficient single hyperspectral image super-resolution, referred as SSPSR. Specifically, we introduce a spatial-spectral prior network (SSPN) to fully exploit the spatial information and the correlation between the spectra of the hyperspectral data. Considering that the hyperspectral training samples are scarce and the spectral dimension of hyperspectral image data is very high, it is nontrivial to train a stable and effective deep network. Therefore, a group convolution (with shared network parameters) and progressive upsampling framework is proposed. This will not only alleviate the difficulty in feature extraction due to high-dimension of the hyperspectral data, but also make the training process more stable. To exploit the spatial and spectral prior, we design a spatial-spectral block (SSB), which consists of a spatial residual module and a spectral attention residual module. Experimental results on some hyperspectral images demonstrate that the proposed SSPSR method enhances the details of the recovered high-resolution hyperspectral images, and outperforms state-of-the-arts.
