description: El presente trabajo dará respuesta al interrogante ¿Qué conocimientos y técnicas de la psicología del testimonio pueden servir al juez civil colombiano para mejorar la práctica y valoración de la prueba testimonial? Por lo anterior, se tratan temas como el papel que juega la memoria en la declaración de terceros, los errores que esta pudiere presentar, las variables que influyen en el recuerdo y algunas formas en las que se puede abordar al testigo, cuyo propósito es que el lector pueda tener una visión clara y un poco amplia de los aspectos que pueden llegar a ser significativos para el juez a la hora de practicar la prueba testimonial, y luego en su valoración. Es fundamental que el juez, al momento de recepcionar el testimonio, conozca los estudios efectuados por algunos autores en psicología del testimonio, pues esto le permite no fiarse de la psicología popular, al considerar que solo las expresiones verbales, no verbales o fisiológicas del declarante conducen a concluir si aquél falta a la verdad. También se hace una propuesta encaminada a positivizar algunos principios que sirvan al juez para apreciar el testimonio, tomando en consideración las pautas que el legislador incluyó en la normatividad procesal penal.
description: The present work will answer the question: ¿What knowledge and techniques of the psychology of testimony can serve the Colombian civil judge to improve the practice and assessment of testimonial evidence? Therefore, topics such as the role that memory plays in the declaration of third parties are discussed, the errors that this may present, the variables that influence memory and some ways in which the witness can be approached, whose purpose is that the reader can have a clear and somewhat broad vision of the aspects that can become significant for the judge when practicing the testimonial evidence, and later in its assessment. It is essential that the judge, at the time of receiving the testimony, be aware of the studies carried out by some authors in the psychology of the testimony, since this allows him to not trust popular psychology, considering that only the verbal, non-verbal or physiological expressions of the declarant lead to conclude if it is untrue. A proposal is also made aimed at positivizing some principles that serve the judge to appreciate the testimony, taking into account the guidelines that the legislator included in the criminal procedure regulations.
Facteurs explicatifs des difficultés d'accès des pères séparés à leur enfant à la suite d'une séparation

description: Dans un contexte de séparation conjugale, les parents sont confrontés à des questions relatives au partage de la garde de leurs enfants. Bien que la garde partagée soit de plus en plus répandue et que les parents soient égaux selon la loi en matière d’autorité parentale, plus de mères obtiennent les droits de garde par rapport aux pères qui voient parfois l’accès à leurs enfants supprimé ou restreint. Dans ce mémoire, nous essayons de comprendre les facteurs explicatifs des difficultés d’accès des pères séparés à leur enfant après une rupture, à partir des propos recueillis auprès de deux pères. Les résultats de notre étude révèlent que la relation avec la mère, le rapport avec la DPJ et le système judiciaire ainsi que les difficultés liées aux pères eux-mêmes (problèmes de santé mentale, difficultés financières…) sont autant de facteurs pouvant expliquer ces difficultés d’accès. Une analyse écosystémique de ces facteurs nous montre qu’ils sont interreliés. Enfin, une réflexion sur l’intervention sociale auprès des pères séparés permet de conclure que le travail social de groupe est l’un des meilleurs moyens pour les accompagner dans leurs réalités.

Evidence for Sticky Consumption Growth in Canada
Creators: name: J. Lavoie, Christopher
Publisher: name: My University

description: Consumption stickiness occurs when current consumption can be predicted by past consumption. The presence of consumption stickiness has important implications on our understanding of consumption dynamics and how they respond to shocks in income. I use the instrument-based framework by Carroll, Slacalek, and Sommer (2011) for the case of Canada over the period 1980Q1 to 2020Q1. I show strong evidence for the presence of weak instruments in the data and therefore use weak-instrument robust inference techniques: the conditional likelihood ratio test (Moreira, 2003) and the Anderson Rubin test (Anderson & Rubin, 1949). I find strong evidence of consumption stickiness in the case of Canada for all examined subsamples.

description: Predictive modeling with electronic health record (EHR) data is anticipated to drive personalized medicine and improve healthcare quality. Constructing predictive statistical models typically requires extraction of curated predictor variables from normalized EHR data, a labor-intensive process that discards the vast majority of information in each patient's record. We propose a representation of patients' entire, raw EHR records based on the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) format. We demonstrate that deep learning methods using this representation are capable of accurately predicting multiple medical events from multiple centers without site-specific data harmonization. We validated our approach using de-identified EHR data from two U.S. academic medical centers with 216,221 adult patients hospitalized for at least 24 hours. In the sequential format we propose, this volume of EHR data unrolled into a total of 46,864,534,945 data points, including clinical notes. Deep learning models achieved high accuracy for tasks such as predicting in-hospital mortality (AUROC across sites 0.93-0.94), 30-day unplanned readmission (AUROC 0.75-0.76), prolonged length of stay (AUROC 0.85-0.86), and all of a patient's final discharge diagnoses (frequency-weighted AUROC 0.90). These models outperformed state-of-the-art traditional predictive models in all cases. We also present a case-study of a neural-network attribution system, which illustrates how clinicians can gain some transparency into the predictions. We believe that this approach can be used to create accurate and scalable predictions for a variety of clinical scenarios, complete with explanations that directly highlight evidence in the patient's chart.

description: We describe the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) Early Release Science (ERS) observations in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) South field. The new WFC3 ERS data provide calibrated, drizzled mosaics in the UV filters F225W, F275W, and F336W, as well as in the near-IR filters F098M (Ys), F125W (J), and F160W (H) with 1-2 HST orbits per filter. Together with the existing HST Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) GOODS-South mosaics in the BViz filters, these panchromatic 10-band ERS data cover 40-50 square arcmin at 0.2-1.7 {\mu}m in wavelength at 0.07-0.15" FWHM resolution and 0.090" Multidrizzled pixels to depths of AB\simeq 26.0-27.0 mag (5-{\sigma}) for point sources, and AB\simeq 25.5-26.5 mag for compact galaxies. In this paper, we describe: a) the scientific rationale, and the data taking plus reduction procedures of the panchromatic 10-band ERS mosaics; b) the procedure of generating object catalogs across the 10 different ERS filters, and the specific star-galaxy separation techniques used; and c) the reliability and completeness of the object catalogs from the WFC3 ERS mosaics. The excellent 0.07-0.15" FWHM resolution of HST/WFC3 and ACS makes star- galaxy separation straightforward over a factor of 10 in wavelength to AB\simeq 25-26 mag from the UV to the near-IR, respectively.

description: Los municipios cafeteros en Colombia experimentaron declive poblacional entre el 2005 y 2018, específicamente por su característica de ser “cafeteros”, y la acción o inacción en los diferentes niveles de gobierno para abordar esta situación, ha permitido que se consolide la dinámica de declive poblacional en ellos, por lo cual se habla del concepto “demotanasia”. La cultura cafetera ha acumulado particularidades que ponen en desventaja a la población, razón por la cual, ésta tiende a dejar sus municipios, de hecho, de los 539 municipios cafeteros analizados, 387 presentaron crecimiento migratorio negativo y 228 crecimiento total negativo en el periodo intercensal 2005-2018. En este sentido, la omisión estatal respecto de la dinámica cafetera ha provocado que se consoliden razones estructurales por las cuales la población sale de su lugar de origen, por tanto, se plantean cuatro grupos de determinantes para explicar el declive poblacional en estos municipios: la crisis cafetera, el turismo, la migración y el campo como lugar no deseable para trabajar para la población juvenil; donde finalmente se constata mediante un modelo Probit que, la intensidad cafetera de un municipio repercute de manera lineal sobre la probabilidad de vivir declive poblacional.
description: The coffee growing municipalities in Colombia experienced a population decline between 2005-2018, specifically due to their characteristic of being "coffee growers", and the action or inaction of the different levels of government to address this situation, has allowed the consolidation of the dynamics of population decline in these municipalities, for which it is spoken of the concept of "demotanasia". The coffee culture has accumulated particularities that put the population at a disadvantage, which is why they tend to leave their municipalities. In fact, out of the 539 coffee growing municipalities analyzed, 387 presented negative migratory growth and 228 presented negative total growth in the intercensal period 2005-2018. In this sense, the omission of the State with respect to the coffee dynamics has caused the consolidation of structural reasons for which the population leaves its place of origin, therefore, four groups of determinants are proposed to explain the population decline in these municipalities: the coffee crisis, tourism, migration and the countryside as an undesirable place to work for the youth population; where finally it is confirmed through a Probit model that the intensity in the coffee activity of a municipality has a linear effect on the probability of experiencing population decline.
Indistinguishability of elementary systems as resource for quantum information processing

description: Typical elements of quantum networks are made by identical systems, which are the basic particles constituting a resource for quantum information processing. Whether the indistinguishability due to particle identity is an exploitable quantum resource remains an open issue. Here we study independently prepared identical particles showing that, when they spatially overlap, an operational entanglement exists which can be made manifest by means of separated localized measurements. We prove this entanglement is physical in that it can be directly exploited to activate quantum information protocols, such as teleportation. These results establish that particle indistinguishability is a utilizable quantum feature and open the way to new quantum-enhanced applications.

description: Clinician implicit bias (actual) or patients’ perception of bias (perceived) can impact clinical encounters. Few curricula focus on skills to address implicit bias. ​

​Implicit bias can erode this communication through two pathways: Patient lived experience leading to perceived bias on routine procedures (Pathway 1) and actual implicit bias based on clinician assumptions (Pathway 2). ​To address this negative impact of implicit bias on the clinical encounter, we developed a skills-based intervention.​ ​We conducted a program evaluation to investigate the efficacy of our intervention on participants’ abilities to develop verbal procedures to restore rapport with patients once bias impacted the encounter.​

description: Phonetic segmentation is the process of splitting speech into distinct phonetic units. Human experts routinely perform this task manually by analyzing auditory and visual cues using analysis software, which is an extremely time-consuming process. Methods exist for automatic segmentation, but these are not always accurate enough. In order to improve automatic segmentation, we need to model it as close to the manual segmentation as possible. This corpus is an effort to capture the human segmentation behavior by recording experts performing a segmentation task. We believe that this data will enable us to highlight the important aspects of manual segmentation, which can be used in automatic segmentation to improve its accuracy.

description: El paisaje es el producto del maridaje entre lo natural y lo cultural. Dicha mixtura no necesariamente se da en proporciones equivalentes, lo que permite tener en consideración un sinnúmero de posibilidades conceptuales, que dependerán del grado de intervención o presencia del hombre en el espacio en el que se desarrolló, se desarrolla o pretende desarrollarse. Ello, ciertamente, dificulta la tarea de establecer un objeto único y preciso de estudio, pero no le resta valor para que sea analizado desde lo jurídico. Este recurso, pocas veces estudiado, cobra importancia a la hora de adoptar decisiones en y para el proceso de ordenar el territorio, no solo para los escenarios rurales sino también los urbanos. Así las cosas y anticipándose al contenido de este trabajo, puede señalarse que existen elementos suficientes, en el ordenamiento jurídico colombiano, para identificar una función a cargo del Estado, en la que la Administración (de distintos niveles, pues la tradición municipalista ha sido superada) planifica el desarrollo integral de su territorio en función y/o consideración de los recursos paisajísticos propios de su circunscripción. A dicha función se le denominará ordenación paisajística del territorio.
description: The landscape is the product of the bond between natural and cultural factors. This mix doesn`t necessarily occur in equivalent portions, which makes it possible to take into consideration a lot of conceptual possibilities, which will depend on the degree of intervention or presence of man in the space in which it was developed, is being developed or intends to be developed. This, certainly, makes very difficult to establish a unique and precise object of study, but it doesn`t diminish its value for analysis from a legal standpoint. This resource, rarely studied, becomes important when making decisions in and for the process of ordering the territory. Thusly and anticipating the content of this work, it can be pointed out that there are sufficient elements, in the Colombian legal system, to identify a function in charge of the State, in which the Administration (at different decision levels, since the municipalist tradition has been surpassed) plans the integral development of its territory based on and/or considering the landscape resources of its circumscription. This function will be called landscape ordering of the territory.

description: The objective of this study is to evaluate the predictive validity of the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) for Software (SW-CMM) as applied to software maintenance. The SW-CMM is intended to apply to both software development and maintenance. A basic premise (hypothesis) of the SW-CMM is that improving process maturity will result in better project performance and product quality. The extent to which that hypothesis is supported empirically is called a test of its predictive validity. No previous evaluation exists of the predictive validity of the SW-CMM in a maintenance context. The extent to which schedule estimates differ from reality is one important measure of project performance. But is higher maturity in fact correlated with a reduction in schedule deviation? Data from 752 maintenance projects drawn from 441 SW-CMM assessments are analyzed using a zero inflated Poisson (ZIP) regression model, and the results are validated using a bootstrap estimation method. Projects from higher maturity organizations typically report less schedule deviation than those from organizations assessed at lower maturity levels.

description: Abstract Application of Oxford Nanopore Technologies’ long-read sequencing platform to transcriptomic analysis is increasing in popularity. However, such analysis can be challenging due to the high sequence error and small library sizes, which decreases quantification accuracy and reduces power for statistical testing. Here, we report the analysis of two nanopore RNA-seq datasets with the goal of obtaining gene- and isoform-level differential expression information. A dataset of synthetic, spliced, spike-in RNAs (‘sequins’) as well as a mouse neural stem cell dataset from samples with a null mutation of the epigenetic regulator Smchd1 was analysed using a mix of long-read specific tools for preprocessing together with established short-read RNA-seq methods for downstream analysis. We used limma-voom to perform differential gene expression analysis, and the novel FLAMES pipeline to perform isoform identification and quantification, followed by DRIMSeq and limma-diffSplice (with stageR) to perform differential transcript usage analysis. We compared results from the sequins dataset to the ground truth, and results of the mouse dataset to a previous short-read study on equivalent samples. Overall, our work shows that transcriptomic analysis of long-read nanopore data using long-read specific preprocessing methods together with short-read differential expression methods and software that are already in wide use can yield meaningful results.

description: Patients presenting with acute intracerebral haemorrhage are at a high risk of exhibiting haematoma expansion, a phenomenon that can significantly worsen long-term functioning. Numerous clinical and radiological factors are associated with expansion. In a bid to better select patients at increased risk of expanding, these factors have been collated together into clinical scores. Several clinical scores have been developed, but comparisons of diagnostic potential between these scores are limited and the frequency of use in clinical trial enrolment is unknown.

description: To understand the intestinal microbial diversity and community structure of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) under different feeding strategies, 39 fish from three groups (A: 9 fish, natural live food only; B: 15 fish, natural live food + fish formulated feeds; C: 15 fish, natural live food + fish formulated feed + lactic acid bacteria) were obtained for the high throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing. We first examined five non-specific immunity indications of the carp—lysozyme (LZM), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Interestingly, the composition of gut microbiota and related non-specific immune indices were affected by the feeding treatment of the bighead carp. Notably, all enzyme activity indexes were significantly different (p < 0.01) in the spleen and three enzyme activity indexes (LZM, GSH-PX, and SOD) had significant differences in the hepatopancreas (p < 0.001) of the carp from the three groups. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed higher diversity in groups B and C. Compared to group A, the relative abundance of Actinobacteria increased significantly and the relative abundance of Proteobacteria and Firmicutes decreased significantly in groups B and C at the phylum level. Functional analysis revealed the association between non-specific immune indicators and import genera in the hepatopancreas and spleen of bighead carp. This study provides new insights into the gut microbiomes and non-specific immune of bighead carp.

description: Este estudio cualitativo de investigación-acción describe lo que se descubre a partir de la conciencia intercultural crítica de los estudiantes de 11.º grado con respecto a la creación y el uso de materiales ELF descolonizados respaldados por la creación e implementación de tres hojas de trabajo descolonizadas. Este estudio se realizó en un colegio privado de Bogotá con un grupo de 14 estudiantes mixtos de grado 11. Los instrumentos utilizados para recolectar datos fueron los artefactos de los estudiantes (tres hojas de trabajo descolonizadas), las notas de campo del maestro y una entrevista de grupo focal. Los hallazgos mostraron que los materiales Descolonizados favorecieron el aprendizaje significativo de los estudiantes debido a que estaban conectados con las necesidades e intereses de los participantes. Asimismo, promovieron su pensamiento crítico en los estudiantes, para resistir los temas hegemónicos, la supremacía así como para elevar la conciencia crítica de la interculturalidad. Los participantes se sintieron motivados, comprometidos e involucrados con los materiales debido a que incluyeron realidades de su escuela y comunidad que los guiaron a reflexionar sobre ellos y tratar de buscar alternativas. Asimismo, se sintieron desafiadas a expresar sus opiniones sin ningún tipo de juicio con respecto a los demás al trabajar con algunos temas sociales relacionados con la discriminación, la justicia social, la hegemonía, la equidad de género y el poder.
description: This qualitative action research study describes what is uncovered from 11th graders’ critical intercultural awareness regarding the creation and use of decolonized ELF materials supported by the creation and implementation of three decolonized worksheets. This study was conducted in a private school in Bogotá with a group of 14 mixed students from 11th grade. The instruments used to collect data were students’ artifacts (three Decolonized worksheets), teacher’s field notes, and a focus group interview. The findings showed that Decolonized materials fostered students’ meaningful learning due to the fact that they were connected with the participants’ needs and interests. Also, they promoted their critical thinking in students, to resist hegemonic issues supremacy as well as to raise the critical interculturality awareness. The participants felt motivated, committed, and engaged with the materials due to they included their school and community realities that guided them to reflect on them and try to seek for alternatives. Likewise, they felt challenged to express their opinions without any type of judgment regarding others, when working with some social issues related to discrimination, social justice, hegemony, gender equity, and power.

description: We perform ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulation of liquid water in the canonical ensemble at ambient conditions using the SCAN meta-GGA functional approximation, and carry out systematic comparisons with the results obtained from the GGA-level PBE functional, and Tkatchenko-Scheffler van der Waals (vdW) dispersion correction inclusive PBE functional. We analyze various properties of liquid water including radial distribution functions, oxygen-oxygen-oxygen triplet angular distribution, tetrahedrality, hydrogen bonds, diffusion coefficients, ring statistics, density of states, band gaps, and dipole moments. We find that the SCAN functional is generally more accurate than the other two functionals for liquid water by not only capturing the intermediate-range vdW interactions but also mitigating the overly strong hydrogen bonds prescribed in PBE simulations. We also compare the results of SCAN-based AIMD simulations in the canonical and isothermal-isobaric ensembles. Our results suggest that SCAN provides a reliable description for most structural, electronic, and dynamical properties in liquid water.
Valuing Inputs Under Supply Uncertainty: The Bayesian Shapley Value

description: We consider the problem of valuing inputs in a production environment in which input supply is uncertain. Inputs can be workers in a firm, risk factors for a disease, securities in a financial market, or nodes in a networked economy. Each input takes its values from a finite set, and uncertainty is modeled as a probability distribution over this set. First, we provide an axiomatic solution to our valuation problem, defining three intuitive axioms which we use to uniquely characterize a valuation scheme that we call the a priori Shapley value. Second, we solve the problem of valuing inputs a posteriori - that is, after observing output. This leads to the Bayesian Shapley value. Third, we consider the problem of rationalizing uncertainty when the inputs are rational workers supplying labor in a non-cooperative production game in which payoffs are given by the Shapley wage function. We find that probability distributions over labor supply that can be supported as mixed strategy Nash equilibria always exist. We also provide an intuitive condition under which we prove the existence of a pure strategy Nash equilibrium. We present several applications of our theory to real-life situations.

description: Partiendo de la hipótesis de que la nueva tendencia del constitucionalismo contemporáneo, en virtud de la cual, se considera a la naturaleza como ente titular de derechos junto con los sistemáticos incumplimientos de fallos populares y la inminente necesidad de proteger los recursos naturales, han transfigurado los criterios jurisprudenciales adoptados para la protección del ambiente en el país. El presente trabajo busca abordar una de las múltiples cuestiones que se ciernen en torno a dicho reconocimiento; a la vez cambio de paradigma. Esto es, las repercusiones que ha provocado en la protección judicial del bien jurídico ambiente. Así, a lo largo de la presente investigación, se propicia un recorrido por el origen y estado actual del ambiente como categoría jurídica; así como de los mecanismos judiciales que se han dispuesto dentro del ordenamiento jurídico colombiano para su protección. Al tiempo que se propone un análisis concomitante de la personería jurídica de la naturaleza y de los retos que tal figura supone para el quehacer del sistema judicial. Finalmente, se entregan algunas reflexiones y recomendaciones de lo que a nuestro juicio debe ser la protección judicial que se tribute por parte del ordenamiento jurídico al Medio ambiente.
description: Based on the hypothesis that the new trend of contemporary constitutionalism, by virtue of which nature is considered to be the holder of rights, together with the systematic breaches of popular rulings and the imminent need to protect natural resources, have transfigured the jurisprudential criteria adopted for the protection of the environment in the country. This paper seeks to address one of the multiple issues that hover around said recognition; Paradigm shift at the same time. That is, the repercussions that it has caused in the judicial protection of the legal environment. Thus, throughout the present investigation, a journey through the origin and current state of the environment as a legal category is promoted; as well as the judicial mechanisms that have been established within the Colombian legal system for their protection. At the same time, a concomitant analysis of the legal status of nature and the challenges that such a figure implies for the work of the judicial system is proposed. Finally, some reflections and recommendations are given on what, in our opinion, should be the judicial protection that is paid by the legal system to the Environment.

description: We present a new workflow to create components for the MaryTTS text-to-speech synthesis platform, which is popular with researchers and developers, extending it to support new languages and custom synthetic voices. This workflow replaces the previous toolkit with an efficient, flexible process that leverages modern build automation and cloud-hosted infrastructure. Moreover, it is compatible with the updated MaryTTS architecture, enabling new features and state-of-the-art paradigms such as synthesis based on deep neural networks (DNNs). Like MaryTTS itself, the new tools are free, open source software (FOSS), and promote the use of open data.
Les gouvernements sous pression : Une analyse de l’impact de l’environnement interne et externe sur les capacités d’innovation des gouvernements canadiens
Creators: name: Picotte Lefebvre, Benjamin
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2018

description: Ce mémoire teste l’hypothèse que les facteurs organisationnels, politiques et externes ont un impact déterminant sur les capacités des organismes gouvernementaux à adopter de nouvelles initiatives et programmes innovants. Actuellement dans la littérature, il existe un manque significatif d’études empiriques porté sur l’influence de ces facteurs dans l’implantation d’innovations dans les organisations publique, surtout à travers le temps. Cette recherche utilise la base de données des candidatures aux Prix à l’innovation de l’Institut d’administration publique du Canada (IAPC) afin d’effectuer une série de régressions à effet fixe avec des données de panel. Les résultats obtenus démontrent qu’il existe une relation positive statistiquement significative entre les contraintes organisationnelles, la pression technologique et la stabilité politique, et l’adoption réussie d’innovations au sein d’un gouvernement donné. La relation entre les besoins essentiels d’une population et les capacités d’innovation de leur gouvernement est significative, mais semble plus complexe que ce que la littérature décrit. La recherche montre aussi que les gouvernements contrôlés par un parti d’idéologie de droite adoptent comparativement moins d’innovations que les gouvernements d’idéologie de centre ou de gauche. Les résultats obtenus par cette analyse supportent quantitativement certaines théories de la littérature de la gestion publique. Elles ouvrent aussi la voie à de nouvelles hypothèses et théories complémentaires portées sur les facteurs affectant l’évolution des capacités d’innovations internes des gouvernements.

Transitional Care

description: Older adults with multiple chronic conditions typically have more complex care needs that require multiple transitions between healthcare settings. Poor care transitions often lead to fragmentation in care, decreased quality of care, and increased adverse events. Emerging research recommends the strong need to engage patients and families to improve the quality of their care. However, there are gaps in evidence on the most effective approaches for fully engaging patients/clients and families in their transitional care. The purpose of this study was to engage older adults with multiple chronic conditions and their family members in the detailed exploration of their experiences during transitions across health care settings and identify potential areas for future interventions.
