Energy as reward : an ecological foundation for the structure of attentional fixation in computational agents during audiovisual speech communication
Creators: name: Fuhrman, Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: Speech communication is a multimodal process. In this process, the act of producing symbolic linguistic structure affects the patterning of various energy media in the surround, which can be sensed, and subsequently transformed, into neural processes which likewise influence the cognitive state of a perceiver. With respect to vision in particular, there is likewise widespread recognition that the distribution of perceivers’ attention – where they fixate- plays a fundamental role in this process, but there is still considerable uncertainty as to what information in the visible signal is beneficial to perceivers, and why fixation patterns are structured in a way which tends to be distributed across various physiological structures, including, but not limited to, both the eyes and the mouth. In this dissertation, I approach this problem from a computational perspective, specifically via the development of a Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) agent that learns to adjust its visual fixations in order to predict the spatiotemporal structure of the acoustic speech signal. The reward signal that is maximized by this agent is based upon an ecologically oriented optimization principle – the Maximum Power Principle (MPP; [1, 2]) – which asserts that self-organizing living systems behave in such a way as to maximize the throughput of available energies in the environment. In experiments with two Audiovisual Speech datasets, I demonstrate that the agent’s fixation behaviours, when structured optimally with respect to this criterion, support successful learning of cross-modal relations between visible and auditory speech. More generally, I also suggest that this explicit link between the algorithmic notion of reward – which has recently been proposed to be sufficient for explaining all manner of intelligent behavior [3] - with the physical notion of energy could serve to explain how generally intelligent behavior manifests across all kinds of different environments: a universal heuristic that may well apply to biological and computational organisms alike.
Factors of Profitable Field Crop Selection

description: Methods of crop selection are varied, depending on a variety of factors, including resources, climate, soil type, and potential marketability of the crop. This study utilizes a theoretical farm of one thousand farmable acres to estimate the costs and returns as well as the resources associated with cultivating, planting, irrigating, harvesting and selling the crop products. The theoretical farm is situated in southwest Idaho in any of the counties of Ada, Canyon, Elmore, Owyhee and Payette. The crops grown are typical of the area; the crops examined are field corn (Zea mays), alfalfa (Medicago sativa) and sugarbeets (Beta vulgaris). Each is examined for yield potential, and market value. Timeliness of production practices are important for best management, so field capacities are determined and machinery needs are calculated. Input costs for fertilization, irrigation and pest control are analyzed and contrasted between each crop. Market data and prices of each crop are used to determine profitability and feasibility of the theoretical farm. Finally, the use of Global Positioning System (GPS) is discussed with respect to each crop and any potential benefits of using GPS are examined.
The Relationship Between Water Shortage Concern and Age in Utah

description: It is unclear whether current water supplies in Utah will be able to accommodate the needs of the future. Population in the state is expected to double by 2050 and climate change models predict declines in water availability in the region. Public perceptions of the adequacy of the water supply (and concerns about potential shortages) are key factors that could influence water use behaviors and support for public policy interventions. This paper explores the research question: "Are young people in Utah more concerned about water shortages than older cohorts?" It was expected that young people would be more concerned about water shortages because they have the highest material stake in avoiding future water crises in the state. Data from a large public survey of representative Utah adults (n=6,800) is used in multivariate models to investigate the relationship between age and perceptions and concerns about water shortages, controlling for sociodemographic attributes and independent estimates of the biophysical adequacy of water supplies in the respondent's place of residence. Results show that adults in all age groups are somewhat concerned about future water supplies in their community, but age is positively related to the degree of concern (net the effect of other variables in the model). These findings support an emerging body of research that suggests a cohort shift in patterns of environmental concern in the United States. The paper explores implications of the findings for public officials seeking to motivate residents to conserve water and support public investments to secure future water supplies.
title: The impact of housing tenure on secondary school pupils’ educational attainment

Subjects: subject: mixed tenure, schools, neighbourhood effects, school effects, multilevel modelling, educational attainment.

description: Educational attainment is strongly associated with a person’s life chances, and poorer children most often have poorer educational outcomes, thus entrenching inequalities. It is known that living in a deprived neighbourhood can have a detrimental impact on educational outcomes. Additionally, it has been found that having a high proportion of poor pupils within a school can have a negative impact on individual educational outcomes. In Glasgow, tenure mixing, which aims to break up areas of mainly social rented housing with owner occupation, has been an objective of regeneration policy. This thesis aims to look at whether mixed tenure policy has had an impact on individual pupil educational attainment in Glasgow. A mixed methods approach was utilised. Firstly changes between two timepoints using data from Glasgow City Council, 2001 and 2011 Censuses, and Scottish Qualification Agency data were examined, focusing on educational attainment and housing tenure. Secondly, multilevel modelling was used to explore variations in educational attainment between neighbourhoods and schools in relation to housing tenure and other socioeconomic measures at each timepoint, as well as over time. Finally, semi-structured interviews were carried out with 15 teachers and pupils in two case study schools in Glasgow. This research found that the proportion of owner occupied households in a pupil’s neighbourhood had a significant impact on their educational attainment, over and above other individual, neighbourhood, school catchment area and school factors, suggesting that mixed tenure policy could have an impact on educational attainment in Glasgow. Owner occupation was seen by teachers as a way of increasing the numbers of ‘aspirational’ families in catchment areas. Without an influx of ‘aspirational’ pupils the scope for policies to raise attainment and reputation to take hold was viewed to be limited. Pupils were more likely to be negative about changes in the catchment areas, highlighting the slow pace of change, and felt that their schools and areas were stigmatised due to poor reputation. This thesis illustrates the importance of taking into account the different contexts that may impact on a person’s outcomes. It also highlights the role of policy to take a more holistic view of contextual influences.
Lightweight Deployment Mechanism of Solar Arrays for Use in CubeSats

Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: Cube satellites, also referred to as CubeSats, were developed in the late twentieth century, and have since served as a cost-effective method of gathering out-of-this-world data. The development of these small-scale satellites have helped universities and small companies worldwide to perform important experiments, as well as gather critical data in order to provide for further space exploration. Cube satellites are designed to be self-sustaining, by using solar cells to capture impinging thermal energy and convert it to power to be consumed by the electronics housed within the satellite itself. In order to function properly, these cells are extended in an array normal to the spacecraft, which are deployed automatically after separation from the launch vehicle. According to a study performed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), solar panels are the most common cause of overall system failure when it comes to CubeSats. This calls for the need of a low-cost, reliable solar array deployment system. An understanding of the requirements for such a deployment system was provided by the Space Dynamics Laboratory, individuals with relevant experience, and the exploration of designs that are currently in use. As a result of this research, it was determined that multiple tape-spring hinges along with a bracket and ribbon cable would best meet the needs of the customer. This simple design provides a low-cost, reliable deployment system with minimal volume and mass requirements, while allowing for wires to traverse the gap between solar arrays in order to provide electrical power to the satellite.

description: Engineering of Sport 15 - Proceedings from the 15th International Conference on the Engineering of Sport (ISEA 2024)
Although synthetic turf surfaces with rubber infill are popular as an alternative to natural turf, with properties that facilitate year-round and extensive use, there have been concerns raised regarding the impact of rubber crumb, a microplastic, being leaked into the environment. Cork infill has been identified as a possible organic alternative to rubber crumb, reducing environmental impact and also having advantages of low heat absorption and high durability. However the influence of cork infill surfaces on player biomechanics is not well understood. In particular, surface cushioning due to a change in infill may influence injury risk when playing sport on these surfaces. Biomechanical field-based testing of surface cushioning or shock absorption can be performed using in-shoe pressure, providing loads at specific areas of the plantar suface of the foot. There has been a particular interest in loading at the lateral forefoot, owing to fifth metatarsal stress fractures being common in multidirectional sports such as soccer [3]. In addition, quantification of loading at the heel is of relevance due to high loads on this area during sport-specific movements, suggested to be associated with injury risk [4]. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate whether there were any differences in peak plantar pressures at the medial and lateral heel and the lateral forefoot for a cork-infill surface, compared with natural turf and rubber crumb surfaces

description: We report the identification of 2MASS J15500845+1455180 as a 0"9 L dwarf visual binary. This source is resolved in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) images and in near-infrared imaging with the IRTF SpeX imager/spectrometer. The two components, oriented along a north-south axis, have similar brightnesses in the near-infrared (Delta{K} ~ 0.2 mag), although the fainter northern component is redder in J-K color. Resolved near-infrared spectroscopy indicates spectral types of L3.5 and L4, consistent with its L3 combined-light optical classification based on SDSS data. Physical association is confirmed through common proper motion, common spectrophotometric distances and low probability of chance alignment. The projected physical separation of 2MASS J1550+1455AB, 30+/-3 AU at an estimated distance of 33+/-3 pc, makes it the widest L dwarf-L dwarf pair identified to date, although such a separation is not unusual among very low-mass field binaries. The angular separation and spectral composition of this system makes it an excellent target for obtaining a precise lithium depletion age, and a potential age standard for low-temperature atmosphere studies.

Using Accelerometer Data to Remotely Assess Predation Activity of Arctic Wolves
Creators: name: Shipp, Heather
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description: Arctic wolves (Canis lupus arctos) play an important role in ecosystems located in the far northern regions of the world; however, unlike the gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park, little information is available about High Arctic wolves and their impacts on prey populations. This research uses data received from two GPS radio-collared Arctic wolves located in the Fosheim Peninsula on Ellesmere Island. Each radio-collar was programmed to record a position every 30-60 minutes, as well as the wolfs activity movement (forwards - backwards and left - right), which was generated by an accelerometer housed within the radio-collar. This research project focused on using location clusters and their associated activity data to remotely identify the locations and the frequency of wolf predation events. The activity data can be used to identify potential kill sites because it takes both time and energy for the Arctic wolves to take down and consume their prey, thus clusters of locations with high levels of activity are generated at these places. Over fifty of the cluster sites were visited and assessed for remains of a kill, such as bone remnants, teeth, or hair. A key objective of this study was to identify predictors and develop a statistical model that distinguishes kill sites from non-kill sites, including rendezvous sites, which I also analyzed. I used AIC model selection methods to compare different multinomial logistic regression models that measured the probability a cluster included a kill, a rendezvous, or neither as a function of several variables, including the sum of activity, total timespan of the cluster, average activity, and the initial slope in activity within the first few hours of each cluster, which is the rate at which activity decreased following the establishment of the cluster. The most predictive variable was number of points; other useful predictors included the average distance between each point and the cluster centroid, and the average value in sideways and rotary acceleration (Activity Y) across the cluster lifespan. These three variables comprise the best-fit multinomial model to distinguish kill and rendezvous clusters, as supported by the AIC results. When excluding the rendezvous clusters, the best-fit multinomial model included the three variables (number of points, average distance, and average in Activity Y) in addition to the slope in activity within the first two hours since cluster formation. Use of accelerometer data and multinomial logistic regression models may help differentiate clusters and enable scientists and wildlife managers to remotely monitor the predatory impact of Arctic wolves.

description: RAT0455+1305 was discovered during the Rapid Temporal Survey which aims in finding any variability on timescales of a few minutes to several hours. The star was found to be another sdBV star with one high amplitude mode and relatively long period. These features along with estimation of T_eff and log g makes this star very similar to Balloon 090100001. Encouraged by prominent results obtained for the latter star we have decided to perform white light photometry on RAT0455+1305. In 2009 we used the 1.5m telescope located in San Pedro Martir Observatory in Mexico. Fourier analysis confirmed the dominant mode found in the discovery data, uncovered another peak close to the dominant one, and three peaks in the low frequency region. This shows that RAT0455+1305 is another hybrid sdBV star pulsating in both p- and g-modes.

The Role of Orexin Receptors in Diurnal Variations in Learning and Memory
Creators: name: Blotter, Jacob Christian
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description: The brain's ability to learn and remember is a topic of extensive debate and research. Mammals share many similarities, including the way in which information from the outside world is processed and stored. Mammalian circadian rhythms have long been thought to be essentially involved with these processes. Orexin, a neurotransmitter in the brain, plays a crucial role in arousal and circadian rhythm. This study is designed to explore the brain's ability to process and store information at different times of the circadian period, and to explore the role of orexin by comparing the performance of normal (wild-type) mice and abnormal (knockout) mice lacking a receptor for orexin in a spatial navigation task. Based on the results of previous research and the known roles of orexin in the brain, I predicted that wild-type mice that learn during the dark phase-which is their active phase-will perform better in a spatial learning and memory task than their counterparts that learn during the light phase, while knockout animals deficient in orexin receptor signaling will not be influenced by the diurnal timing of testing. I tested this prediction by comparing performance in a water-filled radial maze and by analyzing hypothalamic orexin neuron activation in animals tested at the beginning or at the end of their active period, using cFos immunohistochemistry. Our results point to a possible role of orexin in the diurnal variation of learning and memory.

description: We find an exact solution of the equations of motion of a two-field cosmological model, which realizes multi-field dark energy. The latter is characterized by field-space trajectories with turning rates that are always large. We study a class of two-field models and show that it is possible to have such trajectories, giving accelerated space-time expansion, even when the scalar potential preserves the rotational invariance of the field-space metric. For the case of Poincaré-disk field space, we derive the form of the scalar potential compatible with such background solutions and, furthermore, we find the exact solutions analytically. Their field-space trajectories are spirals inward, toward the center of the Poincaré disk. Interestingly, the functional form of the relevant scalar potential is compatible with a certain hidden symmetry, although the latter is broken by the presence of a constant term.

Interaction with Water: Water-Based Outdoor Recreation and Water Quality Perception and Concern Among Residents of Utah
Creators: name: Barnett, Matthew J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description: There are a large number of impaired water bodies in Utah, and population trends indicate that water quality impairment will become an increasingly important issue in the future. Because of education and management implications, an understanding of the social processes that drive water quality perception and concern is a matter of interest and importance. Sociodemographic characteristics and outdoor recreational activity have both been associated with environmental concern in the past. Using a Generalized Linear Modeling approach, this study explores the relationship between water-based outdoor recreation and water quality perception and concern. It is found that participation in water-based outdoor recreation increases the odds that a person will perceive the water around them positively, but also makes it more likely they will be concerned about poor water quality. Disaggregation of the recreation categories (boating, fishing, snowsports, and walking or hiking near water) reveals that different recreational specializations are associated with concern of different strengths and directionalities. Those most engaged in boating have lower levels of concern about water quality, while those who often go hiking or fishing are more concerned.

description: The paper seeks to explain significant constructs within artificial intelligence (AI), including but not limited to the impact of ‘information theory;’ entropy, especially in terms of ‘information entropy;’ and language theory (linguistics), dealing with all communication methods and the ‘meaning’ in that communication along with the challenging problems of ‘bias.’ The paper discusses the progression from ‘chaos theory’ to ‘complexity theory’ to ‘emergence’ and finally, the ‘technological singularity.’ It examines such questions: How do chaos and complexity lead to emergent systems that inevitably lead to a technological singularity? How does the endless loop of AI progress as it emanates outward, comes to confluence, and emanates yet again? What does each phase entail? How does our advance towards exponential growth in data affect the progression of AI? What are the dangers of ‘bias’? What are the risks as we move towards emergence? Finally, why must we exercise extreme caution as we come closer to ‘technological singularity’?

Measuring the Effects of High-Altitude Flight and Upper Atmospheric Radiation on Muscle Cells
Creators: name: Dykes, Annelise
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description: There are several physiological barriers to long-term space travel, including the effects of launch, landing, and microgravity on muscle cells. A payload capsule was designed to maintain cell growth during a high altitude balloon flight to model some of these physiological processes. Murine muscle cells (strain C2C12) were cultured and launched in a capsule on a balloon satellite in November 2016. Cells were monitored for changes due to temperature, flight motion, radiation, and gravity differences by quantifying cell characteristics before and after the flight using physical measurements and cell viability. Instruments were selected to monitor flight data, and a payload capsule was designed for cell survival by maintaining a constant temperature of 37°C and redistributing impact forces.
Field performance of critical height sampling in estimating stand volume
Creators: name: Lo, Hsiao-Chi
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: Critical Height Sampling (CHS) estimates stand volume free from any model and tree form assumptions. Despite its introduction more than four decades ago, CHS is rarely used in the field due to perceived measurement challenges. The objectives of this study were to (1) compare estimated stand volume between CHS and sampling methods that used volume or taper models, (2) assess the equivalence of the sampling methods, and (3) evaluate their relative efficiency. I established 65 field plots in plantation forests of two coniferous tree species in Taiwan. I estimated stand volume for a range of Basal Area Factors (BAFs). Results showed that CHS produced the most similar mean stand volume across BAFs for both tree species with maximum differences between BAFs of 5-18 m³ ha⁻¹. Horizontal Point Sampling (HPS) using volume models produced very large variability in mean stand volume across BAFs with differences up to 126 m³ ha⁻¹. However, CHS was less precise and less efficient than HPS. Furthermore, no sampling methods were statistically interchangeable with CHS at an allowable tolerance of ≤ 55 m³ ha⁻¹. About 72% of critical height measurements were below crown base indicating that critical height was more accessible to measurement than expected. My study suggests that the consistency in the mean estimates of CHS is a major advantage when planning a forest inventory. When checking against CHS, results hint that HPS estimates might contain potential model bias. These strengths of CHS could outweigh its lower precision. My study also highlights significant financial implications when selecting a sampling method, as using a method other than CHS could lead to revenue overestimation or underestimation by US$7,000 per hectare. Lastly, CHS benefits forest management by offering an alternative option of estimating stand volume. CHS could be used as a check when models are not reliable.
Rotation shields chaotic mixing regions from no-slip walls

description: We report on the decay of a passive scalar in chaotic mixing protocols where the wall of the vessel is rotated, or a net drift of fluid elements near the wall is induced at each period. As a result the fluid domain is divided into a central isolated chaotic region and a peripheral regular region. Scalar patterns obtained in experiments and simulations converge to a strange eigenmode and follow an exponential decay. This contrasts with previous experiments [Gouillart et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 114501 (2007)] with a chaotic region spanning the whole domain, where fixed walls constrained mixing to follow a slower algebraic decay. Using a linear analysis of the flow close to the wall, as well as numerical simulations of Lagrangian trajectories, we study the influence of the rotation velocity of the wall on the size of the chaotic region, the approach to its bounding separatrix, and the decay rate of the scalar.

title: THE COMBINATION PROBLEM FOR PANPSYCHISM: A CONSTITUTIVE RUSSELLIAN SOLUTION An Investigation into Phenomenal Bonding Panpsychism and Composite Subjects of Experience
Creators: name: Miller, GE
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2019

description: In this thesis I argue for the following theory: constitutive Russellian phenomenal bonding panpsychism. To do so I do three main things: 1) I argue for Russellian panpsychism. 2) I argue for phenomenal bonding panpsychism. 3) I defend the resultant phenomenal bonding panpsychist model. The importance of arguing for (and defending) such a theory is that if it can be made to be viable, then it is proposed to be the most promising theory of the place of consciousness within nature (Chalmers, 2016a; Strawson, 2006a). This is because constitutive Russellian panpsychism has all the theoretical virtues of physicalism and dualism but does not face the problems they do (Alter and Nagasawa, 2015a; Chalmers, 2016a). The combination problem, however, is the most significant problem for the Russellian panpsychist (Chalmers, 2016b; Goff, 2017a), and, hence, in order to show the viability of the theory I address this problem. Moreover, I present a novel ‘mereological argument’ for panpsychism which makes it necessary that the Russellian panpsychist addresses (and solves) the combination problem. The focus of this thesis is therefore addressing this problem. I argue that the combination problem can indeed be solved. To do so I argue for the phenomenal bonding solution proposed by Goff (Goff, 2016, 2009a). I argue that this solution works and that we can form a positive concept of the phenomenal bonding relation (Miller, 2017). This forces the panpsychist to make sense of how experiencing subjects can be proper parts of other experiencing subjects (Miller, 2018). I then argue that this can indeed be made sense of and show that we can indeed be composite subjects made of other subjects. To show that we can be subjects made up of other subjects I defend this proposal from various objections from throughout the literature. All these objections can be responded to by the constitutive Russellian phenomenal bonding panpsychist. Ultimately this leaves us with a novel and interesting account of what conscious subjects are, and what the material world is: they are both composite entities made wholly of conscious matter.

The Relationship Between Income Taxes and Market Returns
Creators: name: Hepworth, Chelsea
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description: This paper investigates the relationship between book to tax differences and market returns. Prior research has been conducted that shows the ability of book to tax differences to predict future earnings, and this study expands that research to see if book to tax differences have predictive value in terms of actual market returns. This study uses a sample of firms from the Compustat database and runs a regression using book to tax differences and company returns as compared to the market. Results show that book to tax differences do have some predictive value which could potentially allow an investor to "beat the market"; however, further analysis of the data shows that this strategy could be fairly risky for an investor to actually implement.
Exceptionally Cleared Cases in Intimate Partner Violence: A Comparison of Same-Sex Couples Versus Heterosexual Couples
Creators: name: Ambler, Clarice
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2016

description: Most of the literature regarding intimate partner violence (IPV) focuses on heterosexual couples, with little emphasis on how same-sex couples are specifically and uniquely affected by IPV, especially in terms of how such cases are treated by the criminal justice system. The purpose of this study is to identify factors that influence the odds of intimate partner violence (IPV) cases being exceptionally cleared. This study analyzed 207,008 incidents of IPV that occurred in 2013. Using logistic regression, this study determined how weapon use, injury severity, and drug use affected the likelihood of a case being exceptionally cleared across heterosexual and same-sex couples in the United States. Analysis revealed drug use and presence of severe injury significantly decreased the likelihood of a case being exceptionally cleared for heterosexual couples. For same-sex couples, the presence of a severe injury also significantly decreased the likelihood of exceptional clearance, but drugs did not. This research contributes to the existing literature regarding IPV but is the first to compare same-sex and heterosexual couples in terms of factors impacting likelihood of a case being exceptionally cleared.

Language Brokering Consequences as a Function of Development

description: Language brokering can be defined as a child mediating linguistically for a parent or other adult figure, either in spoken or written communication. This situation is a common occurrence among migrant and refugee families as children tend to acquire a new language at an accelerated rate in comparison with adults. As the immigrant and refugee populations continue to grow in comparison with native groups within the United States, it is increasingly important to understand the phenomenon of child language brokering. Moreover, it is particularly relevant to understand how the expectations for and consequences of language brokering may help to shape children across development. In this literature review, 17 articles were evaluated for themes related to child development and language brokering consequences. The extant literature suggests that both positive and negative outcomes exist for language brokers, and that these outcomes are potentially determined in part by context, level of acculturation, ethnic society immersion, family dynamics, and age of the child. Relevant developmental factors are also considered and expressed in relation to the language brokering phenomenon. One key finding that emerged from the current literature review is that very little is known about the prevalence and consequences of language brokering for children younger than 12 years of age. I discuss this notable gap and suggest ways that research can address this process among children. Understanding the negative and positive outcomes associated with language brokering can help to promote positive child adjustment in a new cultural landscape.
