Models of receptive-field dynamics in visual cortex
Creators: name: KALARICKAL, GEORGE

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1999

description: The position, size, and shape of the receptive field (RF) of some cortical neurons change dynamically, in response to artificial scotoma conditioning (Pettet & Gilbert, 1992) and to retinal lesions (Chino et al., 1992; Darian-Smith & Gilbert, 1995) in adult animals. The RF dynamics are of interest because they show how visual systems may adaptively overcome damage (from lesions, scotomas, or other failures), may enhance processing efficiency by altering RF coverage in response to visual demand, and may perform perceptual learning. This paper presents an afferent excitatory synaptic plasticity rule and a lateral inhibitory synaptic plasticity rule--the EXIN rules (Marshall, 1995)--to model persistent RF changes after artificial scotoma conditioning and retinal lesions. The EXIN model is compared to the LISSOM model (Sirosh et al., 1996) and to a neuronal adaptation model (Xing & Gerstein, 1994). The rules within each model are isolated and are analyzed independently, to elucidate their roles in adult cortical RF dynamics. Based on computer simulations, the EXIN lateral inhibitory synaptic plasticity rule and the LISSOM lateral excitatory synaptic plasticity rule produced the best fit with current neurophysiological data on visual cortical plasticity in adult animals (Chino et al., 1992; Pettet & Gilbert, 1992; Darian-Smith & Gilbert, 1995) including (1) the retinal position and shape of the expanding RFs; (2) the corticotopic direction in which responsiveness returns to the silenced cortex; (3) the direction of RF shifts; (4) the amount of change in response to blank stimuli; and (5) the lack of dynamic RF changes during conditioning with a retinal lesion in one eye and the unlesioned eye kept open, in adult animals. The effects of the LISSOM lateral inhibitory synaptic plasticity rule during artificial scotoma conditioning are in conflict with those of the other two LISSOM synaptic plasticity rules. A novel "complementary scotoma" conditioning experiment, in which stimulation of two complementary regions of visual space alternates repeatedly, is proposed to differentiate the predictions of the EXIN and LISSOM rules.

description: The Abelian decomposition of QCD which decomposes the gluons to the color neutral binding gluons and the colored valence gluons shows that QCD can be viewed as the restricted QCD (RCD) made of the binding gluons which has the valence gluons as colored source, and simplifies the QCD dynamics greatly. In particular, it tells that the gauge covariant valence gluons can be treated as the constituents of hadrons, and generalizes the quark model to the quark and valence gluon model. So it provides a comprehensive picture of glueballs and their mixing with quarkoniums, and predicts new hybrid hadrons made of quarks and valence gluons. We discuss how these predictions could be confirmed experimentally. In particular we present a systematic search for the ground state glueballs and their mixing with quarkoniums below 2 GeV in $0^{++}$, $2^{++}$, and $0^{-+}$ channels within the framework of QCD, and predict the relative branching ratios of the radiative decay of $ψ$ to the physical states.

description: When ozonation is employed in advanced water treatment plants to produce drinking water, dissolved organic matter reacts with ozone (O3) and/or hydroxyl radicals (•OH) affecting disinfection byproduct (DBP) formation with subsequently used chlorine-based disinfectants. This study presents the effects of varying exposures of O3 and •OH on DBP concentrations and their associated toxicity generated after subsequent chlorination. DBP formation potential tests and in vitro bioassays were conducted after batch ozonation experiments of coagulated surface water with and without addition of tertiary butanol (t-BuOH, 10 mM) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, 1 mg/mg O3), and at different pH (6 – 8) and transferred ozone doses (0 – 1 mg/mg TOC). Although ozonation led to a 24 – 37% decrease in formation of total trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids, haloacetonitriles, and trihaloacetamides, an increase in formation of total trihalonitromethanes, chloral hydrate, and haloketones was observed. This effect however was less pronounced for samples ozonated at conditions favoring molecular ozone (e.g., pH 6 and in the presence of t-BuOH) over •OH reactions (e.g., pH 8 and in the presence of H2O2). Compared to ozonation only, addition of H2O2 consistently enhanced formation of all DBP groups (20 – 61%) except trihalonitromethanes. This proves that •OH-transformed organic matter is more susceptible to halogen incorporation. Analogously, adsorbable organic halogen (AOX) concentrations increased under conditions that favor •OH reactions. The ratio of unknown to known AOX, however, was greater at conditions that promote direct O3 reactions. Although significant correlation was found between AOX and genotoxicity with the p53 bioassay, toxicity tests using 4 in vitro bioassays showed relatively low absolute differences between various ozonation conditions.

description: Статья посвящена размышлениям Ван Чуна (I в. н.э.) о литературе, а именно о связи таких понятий, как природа человека – син, воля – чжи и литература – вэнь. Автор рассматривает также предшествующую традицию, подробно останавливаясь на интерпретации схожих понятий философом Мэнцзы, с которым Ван Чун полемизирует на страницах своего трактата. В статье также разбираются несколько глав из трактата Луньхэн («Весы суждений»), переведённые автором на русский язык, – «О естественности», «В защиту творчества», «О превосходстве и необычности», «Суждения [о различных] книгах», «Разъяснение [значимости] текстов [чжуцзы]», «Ложное в текстах [толкований канонов]», «О преувеличении в [канонической] литературе». В них мыслитель не только излагает свои взгляды, но и анализирует мысли своих предшественников. Однако в данной статье конкретные философские воззрения Ван Чуна рассматриваются лишь отчасти, а основным объектом является то, как философские идеи влияют на его литературную мысль

description: It was long believed that there is a zero-point energy in the form of hω/2 for massive particles, which is obtained from Schrödinger equation for the harmonic oscillator model. In this paper, it is shown, by the Dirac oscillator, that there is no such a zero-point energy. It is argued that when a particle's wave function can spread in the whole space, it can be static. This does neither violate wave-particle duality nor uncertainty relationship. Dirac equation correctly describes physical reality, while Schrödinger equation does not when it is not the nonrelativistic approximation of Dirac equation with a certain model. The conclusion that there is no zero-point energy in the form of hω/2 is applied to solve the famous cosmological constant problem for massive particles.

Marketing Household Water Treatment: Willingness to Pay Results from an Experiment in Rural Kenya

description: Despite increasing availability of household water treatment products, demand in developing countries remains low. Willingness to pay for water treatment products and factors that affect demand are not well understood. In this study, we estimate willingness to pay for WaterGuard, a dilute chlorine solution for point-of-use water treatment, using actual purchase decisions at randomly assigned prices. Secondly, we identify household characteristics that are correlated with the purchase decision. Among a sample of 854 respondents from 107 villages in rural Kenya, we find that mean willingness to pay is approximately 80% of the market price. Although only 35% of sample households purchased WaterGuard at the market price, 67% of those offered a 50% discount purchased the product. A marketing message emphasizing child health did not have a significant effect on purchase behavior, overall or among the subset of households with children under five. These findings suggest that rural Kenyans are willing to pay for WaterGuard at low prices but are very sensitive to increasing price. Households with young children that could benefit the most from use of WaterGuard do not appear to be more likely to purchase the product, and a marketing message designed to target this population was ineffective.

description:
BACKGROUND: We evaluated diagnostic mammography among women with a breast lump to determine whether performance varied across racial and ethnic groups. METHODS: This study included 51,014 diagnostic mammograms performed between 2005 and 2018 in the Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium among Asian/Pacific Islander (12%), Black (7%), Hispanic/Latina (6%), and White (75%) women reporting a lump. Breast cancers occurring within 1 year were ascertained from cancer registry linkages. Multivariable regression was used to adjust performance statistic comparisons for breast cancer risk factors, mammogram modality, demographics, additional imaging, and imaging facility. RESULTS: Cancer detection rates were highest among Asian/Pacific Islander [per 1,000 exams, 84.2 (95% confidence interval (CI): 72.0-98.2)] and Black women [81.4 (95% CI: 69.4-95.2)] and lowest among Hispanic/Latina women [42.9 (95% CI: 34.2-53.6)]. Positive predictive values (PPV) were higher among Black [37.0% (95% CI: 31.2-43.3)] and White [37.0% (95% CI: 30.0-44.6)] women and lowest among Hispanic/Latina women [22.0% (95% CI: 17.2-27.7)]. False-positive results were most common among Asian/Pacific Islander women [per 1,000 exams, 183.9 (95% CI: 126.7-259.2)] and lowest among White women [112.4 (95% CI: 86.1-145.5)]. After adjustment, false-positive and cancer detection rates remained higher for Asian/Pacific Islander and Black women (vs. Hispanic/Latina and White). Adjusted PPV was highest among Asian/Pacific Islander women. CONCLUSIONS: Among women with a lump, Asian/Pacific Islander and Black women were more likely to have cancer detected and more likely to receive a false-positive result compared with White and Hispanic/Latina women. IMPACT: Strategies for optimizing diagnostic mammography among women with a lump may vary by racial/ethnic group, but additional factors that influence performance differences need to be identified.

description: Language identification is the task of automatically determining the identity of a language conveyed by a spoken segment. It has a profound impact on the multilingual interoperability of an intelligent speech system. Despite language identification attaining high accuracy on medium or long utterances(>3s), the performance on short utterances (<=1s) is still far from satisfactory. We propose a BERT-based language identification system (BERT-LID) to improve language identification performance, especially on short-duration speech segments. We extend the original BERT model by taking the phonetic posteriorgrams (PPG) derived from the front-end phone recognizer as input. Then we deployed the optimal deep classifier followed by it for language identification. Our BERT-LID model can improve the baseline accuracy by about 6.5% on long-segment identification and 19.9% on short-segment identification, demonstrating our BERT-LID's effectiveness to language identification

description: In freemium games, the revenue from a player comes from the in-app purchases made and the advertisement to which that player is exposed. The longer a player is playing the game, the higher will be the chances that he or she will generate a revenue within the game. Within this scenario, it is extremely important to be able to detect promptly when a player is about to quit playing (churn) in order to react and attempt to retain the player within the game, thus prolonging his or her game lifetime. In this article we investigate how to improve the current state-of-the-art in churn prediction by combining sequential and aggregate data using different neural network architectures. The results of the comparative analysis show that the combination of the two data types grants an improvement in the prediction accuracy over predictors based on either purely sequential or purely aggregated data.

description: The terms sustainability, scaling up, and enabling environment are inconsistently used in implementing water supply projects. To clarify these terms we develop a framework based on Normalization Process Theory, and apply the framework to a hypothetical water supply project in schools. The resulting framework provides guidance on how these terms could be implemented and analyzed in water supply projects. We conclude that effective use of the terms sustainability, scaling up, and enabling environment would focus on purpose, process, and perspective. This is the first known attempt to analyze the implementation of the three terms together in the context of water supply services.

description: Проблема словообразования в эвенском языкознании остается актуальной. Актуальность данной статьи определяется тем, что в ней исследуются новейшие производные единицы эвенского языка с учетом прежних и становление новых тенденций в словообразовательной системе. В статье анализируются суффиксальное словообразование орудия действия в эвенском языке, которое до сих пор не подвергалось монографическим исследованиям. Словообразование является одним из важнейших источников как пополнения словарного запаса языка, так и образования новых слов. Исследование словообразовательного аспекта эвенской лексики дает возможность более тщательного изучения ее семантики, так как каждая морфема несет на себе определенную смысловую нагрузку, формируя тем самым семантику всего слова. В ходе исследования рассмотрим те или иные суффиксы, участвующие в словообразовании данных слов. Изучение этой проблемы имеет важное теоретическое и практическое значение, способствуя решению некоторых вопросов словообразования, а также ряда проблем теории лексики эвенского языка

School improvement planning

description: This toolkit is an outcome of a project entitled Supervising Schools in the 21st Century: Digital Tools and Improvement Plans (SS21DTIP). The purpose of the project was to reinforce the improvement processes taking place within schools with the description of procedures and techniques and the creation of tools that will be aiming to enable schools to engage with educational evidence and find enhanced teaching, learning and managing strategies. This toolkit is based on a systematic literature review and findings derived from a series of Case Studies of schools in four European countries (Spain, Bulgaria, Ireland and Greece). SS21DTIP intended to contribute to a unique and innovative insight into school evaluation by assisting schools with what is at the centre of effective planning activities, data-informed internal evaluation and planning processes. This toolkit aims to provide those in charge of planning, developing and assessing schools’ improvement plans with criteria, strategies and instruments to do it in an effective way. It also aims to promote the European dimensions of School Improvement planning.

description: Heteropoda dagmarae Jäger & Vedel 2005 Material examined. 1 male (SMF 56655), L6, sweeping, PJ 2418 (pedipalpi in formol). 2 females (MNHN), L16, PJ 2337-2338. 1 female (SMF 56699), L7, banana plant, in bent leaf, at night, by hand, 10.111.2006, PJ 2504, SD 514. The female specimens represent the first records for the provinces Luang Prabang and Houaphan. It seems that the species occurs also in degraded habitats as banana plantations and do not have special ecological needs except for a more or less rich foliage layer in shrubs and trees.

description: Machine learning techniques are increasingly used to predict material behavior in scientific applications and offer a significant advantage over conventional numerical methods. In this work, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model is used in a finite element formulation to define the flow law of a metallic material as a function of plastic strain, plastic strain rate and temperature. First, we present the general structure of the neural network, its operation and focus on the ability of the network to deduce, without prior learning, the derivatives of the flow law with respect to the model inputs. In order to validate the robustness and accuracy of the proposed model, we compare and analyze the performance of several network architectures with respect to the analytical formulation of a Johnson-Cook behavior law for a 42CrMo4 steel. In a second part, after having selected an Artificial Neural Network architecture with $2$ hidden layers, we present the implementation of this model in the Abaqus Explicit computational code in the form of a VUHARD subroutine. The predictive capability of the proposed model is then demonstrated during the numerical simulation of two test cases: the necking of a circular bar and a Taylor impact test. The results obtained show a very high capability of the ANN to replace the analytical formulation of a Johnson-Cook behavior law in a finite element code, while remaining competitive in terms of numerical simulation time compared to a classical approach.

Zelditch (arXiv:1212.4762). In this note, we give the formula of the limiting distribution of the critical values at critical points of random analytic functions of fixed Morse index and we compute explicitly such limitings for local maxima and saddle values in the case of Riemann surfaces; we also prove that the second order term in the full expansion of the distribution of the critical values is topologically invariant on Riemann surfaces.

European Union?

description: This article provides an overview of the study of the European Union since the doldrums of the 1970s. We focus on three debates that have helped to shape the field. Has European integration centralised state control or is European integration part of a process of dispersion of authority? What is the role of identity in framing preferences over European integration? And, finally, is European integration part of a new political cleavage? We observe that the European Union is a moving target. It has a habit of throwing up new and unexpected facts which wrong-foot extant theories. We have no grounds for believing that this will not continue.

description: В статье рассматриваются описания коренных народов Южного Алтая, обнаруживаемые в сибирском травелоге Елима Демидова, князя Сан-Донато «За диким бараном на Алтай и в Монголию» (1900). Целью путешествия была охота на архара (Ovis ammon) как часть европейской традиции «big game hunting», в которой каждый путешественник хотел отличиться. Однако внимание к повседневной жизни, культуре и истории Южного Алтая делает этот травелог одним из самых важных документов, позволяющих понять истоки ориенталистского образа Алтая. В контексте европейского ориентализма образы «местных дикарей» в описаниях Демидова конструируются на основе стереотипных характеристик, свойственных большинству описаний путешествий на Восток: они наивны, как дети и жестоки, как дикари. Таким образом, Алтай описывается как типологически восточное пространство, населенное восточным населением, находящимся на самой низкой ступени развития.

description: В большинстве случаев Алтай (в том числе Южный Алтай) русские и европейские путешественники сравнивали со Швейцарскими Альпами. В этом отношении путевой нарратив британского колониального офицера, охотника и знаменитого путешественника Майора Свейна сильно отличается: в его травелоге «Через высокогорья Сибири» (1904) очень часто Алтай и его жители сравниваются с Индией. В литературном отношении этот редкий текст совершенно не исследован, и как материал для конструирования метатекстуального и ориенталистского образа Алтая в русской и мировой литературе еще не привлекался. В этой статье делается попытка ввести книгу Свейна в научный оборот и доказать, что образ Алтая в начале XX века в глазах европейских путешественников имел устойчивые ориенталистские коннотации.

description: В данной статье рассматривается проблема омонимии в медицинской терминологии английского, русского и татарского языков. Изучение медицинской терминологии является актуальным, так как медицина постоянно развивается, и словарный состав языков, в том числе и национальных, пополняется за счет новых терминов. Омонимия терминов является очень важной проблемой в медицинском терминоведении. Кроме того, омонимия в медицинской терминосистеме английского, русского и татарского языков в сопоставительном аспекте не изучена до сих пор. Данное исследование поможет упорядочить термины, что играет важную роль при составлении словарей и переводе медицинских текстов с одного языка на другой, учитывая особенностей явления омонимии в терминосистемах каждого из изучаемых языков. В статье изучаются мнения разных ученых относительно многозначности терминов, признаков, которыми должна обладать омонимия; дается краткий обзор метода разграничения омонимии и полисемии – компонентного анализа дефиниций многозначных терминов. Основная часть исследования посвящается особенностям явления омонимии в рассматриваемых языках. Речь идет о различных классификациях терминов-омонимов, основанных на лексических и грамматических признаках многозначных терминов, полноты или неполноты совпадения их парадигм. Авторы выявляют сходства и различия омонимичных отношений в английском, русском и татарском языках.

description: This study presents trends in single parenthood in Russia and examines the factors that explain the living arrangements of single-mother households. The recent period of economic reforms in Russia has reduced government transfers, eliminated publicly subsidized preschool care programs, and worsened labor market opportunities for women. Our research shows that for the last decade the proportion of female-headed households has increased rapidly and these households have experienced an increasingly high poverty risk. Using seven rounds of data from the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS), we investigate the role that household living arrangements play in single-mother family income dynamics and the major factors that affect the income status of mother-only families in Russia. We find that enhanced earning power of the single parent as well as a higher level of child benefits increases the likelihood that the single parent family lives separately from other relatives. Increasingly, however, single mothers are choosing to co-reside with other relatives or adults to survive and raise children in times of economic stress and uncertainty.

description: We are witnessing a heightened surge in remote privacy attacks on laptop computers. These attacks often exploit malware to remotely gain access to webcams and microphones in order to spy on the victim users. While webcam attacks are somewhat defended with widely available commercial webcam privacy covers, unfortunately, there are no adequate solutions to thwart the attacks on mics despite recent industry efforts. As a first step towards defending against such attacks on laptop mics, we propose TickTock, a novel mic on/off status detection system. To achieve this, TickTock externally probes the electromagnetic (EM) emanations that stem from the connectors and cables of the laptop circuitry carrying mic clock signals. This is possible because the mic clock signals are only input during the mic recording state, causing resulting emanations. We design and implement a proof-of-concept system to demonstrate TickTock's feasibility. Furthermore, we comprehensively evaluate TickTock on a total of 30 popular laptops executing a variety of applications to successfully detect mic status in 27 laptops. Of these, TickTock consistently identifies mic recording with high true positive and negative rates.
