description: A stable generalized complex structure is one that is generically symplectic but degenerates along a real codimension two submanifold, where it defines a generalized Calabi-Yau structure. We introduce a Lie algebroid which allows us to view such structures as symplectic forms. This allows us to construct new examples of stable structures, and also to define period maps for their deformations in which the background three-form flux is either fixed or not, proving the unobstructedness of both deformation problems. We then use the same tools to establish local normal forms for the degeneracy locus and for Lagrangian branes. Applying our normal forms to the four-dimensional case, we prove that any compact stable generalized complex 4-manifold has a symplectic completion, in the sense that it can be modified near its degeneracy locus to produce a compact symplectic 4-manifold.

description: We analyse the radial and tangential velocity fields in the Galaxy as seen from the Sun by using as a first approximation a simple axisymmetric model, which we then compare with the corresponding fields in a barred N-body model of the Milky Way. This provides a global description of these quantities missing in the literature, showing where they take large values susceptible to be used in future observations even for sources well beyond the Galactic center. Absolute largest proper motions occur at a distance slightly behind the Galactic Center, which are there 1.5 times larger than the highest local proper motions due to the Galactic differential rotation. Large proper motions well beyond the Galactic center are well within the current astrometric accuracy.

title: The Influence of Ethnic Background, Religion, Education, and Income upon Family Planning Behavior and Attitudes of Certain Married Couples at Utah State University
Creators: name: Loza-Montenegro, Gustavo
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1972

description: The objective of this study was to determine whether certain socio-cultural factors tend to influence family planning behavior and attitudes of certain married couples at Utah State University. Sociacultural factors considered in this study were: ethnic background, religious preference, level of education, and income. These sociocultural factors (independent variables) were examined from the standpoint of their influence upon one or more of the following dependent variables: the use or non-use of family planning, the extent to which family planning is used, attitude toward the most important source of information for family planning, and attitude regarding the single method which is considered to be best by respondents.
The findings show that the socio-cultural variable Religious Preference was the main independent variable which proved to be significantly associated with the following dependent variables: sources of information for birth control (formal or informal); extent to which birth control is used (continually or periodically), and attitudes regarding the best method of birth control among women (artificial or nonartificial), Specifically, these findings show that the Catholics favored formal sources, while the Protestants favored informal sources of obtaining information about birth control. Catholics tended to use periodic methods of birth control , including rhythm, abstinence and non-use, while Protestants mainly used continual methods of birth control (primarily artificial). The last significant statistical difference showed the preference of Protestant women for artificial methods of birth control more than Catholic women.
It was concluded that religion is still an important agent of socialization relating to birth control behavior and attitudes.

description: We deduce a new set of symmetries and relations between the coefficients of the expansion of Abelian and Non-Abelian Fractional Quantum Hall (FQH) states in free (bosonic or fermionic) many-body states. Our rules allow to build an approximation of a FQH model state with an overlap increasing with growing system size (that may sometimes reach unity!) while using a fraction of the original Hilbert space. We prove these symmetries by deriving a previously unknown recursion formula for all the coefficients of the Slater expansion of the Laughlin, Read Rezayi and many other states (all Jacks multiplied by Vandermonde determinants), which completely removes the current need for diagonalization procedures.

description: In this paper, linear first order expansion of deceleration parameter $q(z)=q_0+q_1(1-a)$ ($M_1$), constant jerk $j=j_0$ ($M_2$) and third order expansion of luminosity distance ($M_3$) are confronted with cosmic observations: SCP 307 SN Ia, BAO and observational Hubble data (OHD). Likelihood is implemented to find the best fit model parameters. All these models give the same prediction of the evolution of the universe which is undergoing accelerated expansion currently and experiences a transition from decelerated expansion to accelerated expansion. But, the transition redshift depends on the concrete parameterized form of the model assumed. $M_1$ and $M_2$ give value of transition redshift about $z_t\sim 0.6$. $M_3$ gives a larger one, say $z_t\sim 1$. The $χ^2/dof$ implies almost the same goodness of the models. But, for its badness of evolution of deceleration parameter at high redshift $z>1$, $M_3$ can not be reliable. $M_1$ and $M_2$ are compatible with $Λ$CDM model at the $2σ$ and $1σ$ confidence levels respectively. $M_3$ is not compatible with $Λ$CDM model at $2σ$ confidence level. From $M_1$ and $M_2$ models, one can conclude that the cosmic data favor a cosmological model having $j_0

description: We study the growth of norms of ergodic integrals for the translation action on spaces coming from expansive, self-affine Delone sets. The linear map giving the self-affinity induces a renormalization map on the pattern space and we show that the rate of growth of ergodic integrals is controlled by the induced action of the renormalizing map on the cohomology of the pattern space up to boundary errors. We explore the consequences for the diffraction of such Delone sets, and explore in detail what the picture is for substitution tilings as well as for cut and project sets which are self-affine. We also explicitly compute some examples.

Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1968

description: Student. understanding and use of tobacco was studied under the following specific areas: specific knowledge as it relates to smoking and health; student opinions and attitudes toward smoking; smoking experience; and the influence of certain factors on smoking status.
About 1155 students were sampled with the use of a questionnaire. It was found that there was no significant difference in the scores of boys and girls. The senior high students were better informed than the ninth grade or junior high students.
The majority (81 percent) of all students surveyed were of the opinion that the pleasure derived from smoking was not worth the price a person has to pay in terms of health and expense. Five percent of the students indicated that their mothers smoked, and 69 percent indicated that their parents did not approve of their smoking.
There were 6 percent of the students who smoked regularly (at least once a week) with another 34 percent smoking occasionally. The ninth grade percentage wise, smoke heavier (one-half pack or more daily) than any of the other groups.

description: We study blow-ups in generalized complex geometry. To that end we introduce the concept of holomorphic ideal, which allows one to define a blow-up in the category of smooth manifolds. We then investigate which generalized complex submanifolds are suitable for blowing up. Two classes naturally appear; generalized Poisson submanifolds and generalized Poisson transversals, submanifolds which look complex, respectively symplectic in transverse directions. We show that generalized Poisson submanifolds carry a canonical holomorphic ideal and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the corresponding blow-up to be generalized complex. For the generalized Poisson transversals we give a normal form for a neighborhood of the submanifold, and use that to define a generalized complex blow-up, which is up to deformation independent of choices.

description: Ultrahigh-precision machining of glass is indispensable for optical component fabrication and therefore for applications. In this regard, plasma jet assisted chemical etching technologies enable new fabrication processes for enhanced optical functionalities due to their deterministic localized machining capabilities. This technique has been successfully applied to fused silica and silicon. However, applications require specific glass properties are related to complex material compositions of the glass. Hence, reactive plasma etching of these optical glasses is a challenging task. For instance, etching of metal oxide containing glass like N-BK7 by a fluorine-based reactive atmospheric plasma jet (RAPJ) exhibits currently limitations due to the formation of non-volatile reaction products that remain on the glass surface as a layer. Therefore, a procedure consisting of RAPJ etching and laser ablation is proposed for the machining of N-BK7. The capability of laser-based removal of residual layers is compared to water-based solving of the residual layer. After RAPJ etching of N-BK7 using a CF4–O2 gas mixture with an average microwave power of 16 W, the samples are cleaned either by a water-based solvent or by the ablation with a nanosecond-pulsed ultraviolet laser. The laser irradiation with fluences of 2.8 J/cm2 results in a localized removal of the residual layer. It is demonstrated that the roughness of the laser-cleaned N-BK7 surface is similarly low as solvent-based cleaned samples but the pulsed laser enhanced cleaning allows a dry processing at atmospheric pressure as well as a localized processing with a high lateral resolution.
A model of the labor surplus dualistic economy in the notions of J.C.H. Fei and G. Ranis
Creators: name: Krumins, Juris Talivaldis
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The dynamic dual sector model of this thesis is constructed in the notions of John C.H. Fei and Gustav Ranis as expressed in their book, Development of the Labor Surplus Economy.¹ The construction takes the form of three stages of balanced economic growth which are demarcated by the value of the agricultural marginal product of labor; stage one is concerned with the time period when this equals zero, stage two when it lies between zero and the real agricultural wage, and stage three, which is omitted, when it is equal to the real agricultural wage. The model shows that in the large labor surplus type of underdeveloped economy, successful development is more a question of domestic policy, rather than foreign aid or trade. The distinctive features of the type of economy analyzed are "disguised" unemployment and institutional wage in the agricultural sector coupled with a small, growing industrial sector. The solution for development lies in the relocation of this surplus labor in the agricultural sector to the industrial sector, with a consequent increase in productivity per capita in the agricultural sector, where a smaller percentage of the total labor force now provides the entire economy with food and basic inputs. This, then, is accompanied by an increase in the industrial employment and development, the expansion of which depends on the two real resource components, the agricultural "surplus" and agricultural labor force which are provided by the agricultural sector. The essential feature of the industrial sector is seen to be the absorption of surplus labor from the agricultural sector, which in turn results in the expansion of the industrial output and economic growth.

It shows that the flat geometry has a better control on ergodic properties of translation flow than hyperbolic geometry.

description: We investigate chain teleportation of a qutrit-state via the non-maximally two-qutrit entangled channels. For the case of four parties, the efficiencies of two chain teleportation protocols, the separate chain teleportation protocol (SCTP) and the global chain teleportation protocol (GCTP), are calculated. In SCTP the errors are corrected between every step while in GCTP the errors are corrected only at the end. Furthermore, we present a piecewise global chain teleportation protocol (PGCTP) for keeping away from the inconvenience of error-correction of GCTP. We show that PGCTP is more efficient than SCTP.

title: Mixing the Emic and Etic Perspectives: A Study Exploring Development of Fixed-Answer Questions to Measure In-Service Teachers' Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge
Creators: name: Robertshaw, M. Brooke
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2013

description: Using a sequential mixed-method methodology, this dissertation study set out to understand the emic and etic perspectives of the knowledge encompassed in the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework and to develop fixed answer questions based on that knowledge. While there have been many studies examining ways to measure TPACK in in-service and pre-service teachers, very few have addressed measuring TPACK using fixed-answer questions. Through the use of the mixed-methods, a snapshot of the emic (inside) and etic (outside) perspectives on the TPACK framework was obtained. This study used a focus group with in-service teachers (emic perspective) and interviews with teacher educators (etic perspective) to understand the kind of knowledge attributed to the TPACK framework. Six themes were derived from the focus group and interviews, from which fixed-answer questions were developed. Those six themes included such issues as access to technology, the use of technology for solid teaching and learning purposes, and passive versus active learning when using technology. Following best practices, the eleven questions included a scenario that gave context to the questions asked and the answers provided. In-service teachers reviewed the items to assure that the language and context were appropriate to classroom practice. Four experts on the TPACK framework reviewed the items for face validity. Across the experts six of the eleven items were rated as valid. Although only the experts saw a small number of items as valid, this study indicates that this kind of measurement for the TPACK framework may be possible.

description: We find the entropy of Kehagias-Sfetsos black hole in the deformed Hořava-Lifshitz gravity by using the first law of thermodynamics. When applying generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) to Schwarzschild black hole, the entropy $S=A/4+(π/ω)\ln(A/4)$ may be interpreted as the GUP-inspired black hole entropy. Hence, it implies that the duality in the entropy between the Kehagias-Sfetsos black hole and GUP-inspired Schwarzschild black hole is present.

We use perturbative techniques to show that the Z^4_N center-symmetries are broken with naive fermions but they are not broken with overlap fermions. We use numerical techniques to support this result. Furthermore, we present evidence for a non-zero chiral condensate for one and two Majorana flavors at one value of the lattice gauge coupling.

description: In this paper the current release of the Monte Carlo event generator Sherpa, version 1.1, is presented. Sherpa is a general-purpose tool for the simulation of particle collisions at high-energy colliders. It contains a very flexible tree-level matrix-element generator for the calculation of hard scattering processes within the Standard Model and various new physics models. The emission of additional QCD partons off the initial and final states is described through a parton-shower model. To consistently combine multi-parton matrix elements with the QCD parton cascades the approach of Catani, Krauss, Kuhn and Webber is employed. A simple model of multiple interactions is used to account for underlying events in hadron--hadron collisions. The fragmentation of partons into primary hadrons is described using a phenomenological cluster-hadronisation model. A comprehensive library for simulating tau-lepton and hadron decays is provided. Where available form-factor models and matrix elements are used, allowing for the inclusion of spin correlations; effects of virtual and real QED corrections are included using the approach of Yennie, Frautschi and Suura.

description: Recalling the construction of a flat surface from a Bratteli diagram, this paper considers the dynamics of the shift map on the space of all bi-infinite Bratteli diagrams as the renormalizing dynamics on a moduli space of flat surfaces of finite area. A criterion of unique ergodicity similar to that of Masur's for flat surface holds: if there is a subsequence of the renormalizing dynamical system which has a good accumulation point, the translation flow or Bratteli-Vershik transformation is uniquely ergodic. Related questions are explored.

description: We study the momentum dependence of the ghost propagator and of the space and time components of the gluon propagator at equal time in pure SU(3) lattice Coulomb gauge theory carrying out a joint analysis of data collected independently at RCNP Osaka and Humboldt University Berlin. We focus on the scaling behavior of these propagators at beta=5.8,...,6.2 and apply a matching technique to relate the data for the different lattice cutoffs. Thereby, lattice artifacts are found to be rather strong for both instantaneous gluon propagators at large momentum. As a byproduct we obtain the respective lattice scale dependences a(beta) for the transversal gluon and the ghost propagator which indeed run faster with beta than two-loop running, but slightly slower than what is known from the Necco-Sommer analysis of the heavy quark potential. The abnormal a(beta) dependence as determined from the instantaneous time-time gluon propagator, D_{44}, remains a problem, though. The role of residual gauge-fixing influencing D_{44} is discussed.

title: A Study of Cell Dimensions, Amyloplast Position and Certain Physiological Responses During Gravitropic Bending of Dicot Stems
Creators: name: Sliwinski, Julianne E.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1982

description: If a plant is positioned horizontally, the elongating region responds by bending upward within 10 to 12 h until it is vertical, forming a goo bend with the stem below. If a Xanthium strumarium L. (cocklebur) plant is placed horizontally, but restricted to that position for 48 h and then released, the bend to the vertical usually takes place within 10 s, suggesting that bending energy is stored in restricted stems. Some plants that do not bend completely to 90 within 10 s do so within 5 min, and other plants can overshoot the 90 mark by as much as 50°. Microscopic measurements show that cells on the bottom of stems that have been restricted and then released are longer and narrower than cells on the bottom of restricted stems; cells on the top of restricted-and-released stems are shorter and thicker than those on the top of restricted stems. Thus, stems bend upward rapidly after release in response to changes in cell dimensions, but apparently with conservation of cell volume (i.e., little or no movement of water in or out of cells during the rapid bending ). The increased diameter of the cells on the bottom of restricted plants indicates that the cells are taking up water before they are released {apparently accompanied by an increase in cell wall area), while they are not allowed to increase much in length. Any increase in length was accompanied by stretching of cells on top. Thus, energy for bending was stored in stretched upper cells and compressed lower cells that have taken up water.
It was al so shown that graviperception takes place in the very tissue that bends, and this perception is not a perception of the tension and compression caused by the weight of a horizontal stem.
Also, amyloplasts were found in a sheath also in the region of bending and were found to settle in the direction of gravity. The location of the sheath between the vascular tissue and the cortex lead to a proposed model of graviperception for green vegetative dicot shoots.

description: We report on long-term observations of atmospheric parameters in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) made over the last 2 decades. Within this study, we show, based on meteor wind measurement, the long-term variability of winds, tides, and kinetic energy of planetary and gravity waves. These measurements were done between the years 2002 and 2018 for the high-latitude location of Andenes (69.3°N, 16°E) and the mid-latitude locations of Juliusruh (54.6°N, 13.4°E) and Tavistock (43.3°N, 80.8°W). While the climatologies for each location show a similar pattern, the locations differ strongly with respect to the altitude and season of several parameters. Our results show annual wind tendencies for Andenes which are toward the south and to the west, with changes of up to 3°m s-1 per decade, while the mid-latitude locations show smaller opposite tendencies to negligible changes. The diurnal tides show nearly no significant long-term changes, while changes for the semidiurnal tides differ regarding altitude. Andenes shows only during winter a tidal weakening above 90°km, while for the Canadian Meteor Orbit Radar (CMOR) an enhancement of the semidiurnal tides during the winter and a weakening during fall occur. Furthermore, the kinetic energy for planetary waves showed strong peak values during winters which also featured the occurrence of sudden stratospheric warming. The influence of the 11-year solar cycle on the winds and tides is presented. The amplitudes of the mean winds exhibit a significant amplitude response for the zonal component below 82°km during summer and from November to December between 84 and 95°km at Andenes and CMOR. The semidiurnal tides (SDTs) show a clear 11-year response at all locations, from October to November. © 2019 by ASME.

description: We consider reversible random walks in random environment obtained from symmetric long--range jump rates on a random point process. We prove almost sure transience and recurrence results under suitable assumptions on the point process and the jump rate function. For recurrent models we obtain almost sure estimates on effective resistances in finite boxes. For transient models we construct explicit fluxes with finite energy on the associated electrical network.

description: Log-symplectic structures are Poisson structures $π$ on $X^{2n}$ for which $\bigwedge^n π$ vanishes transversally. By viewing them as symplectic forms in a Lie algebroid, the $b$-tangent bundle, we use symplectic techniques to obtain existence results for log-symplectic structures on total spaces of fibration-like maps. More precisely, we introduce the notion of a $b$-hyperfibration and show that they give rise to log-symplectic structures. Moreover, we link log-symplectic structures to achiral Lefschetz fibrations and folded-symplectic structures.

description: Large populations o+ black grass bugs, Labops hesperius Uhler, have been observed on extensive acreages o+ range lands. These bugs cause severe damage to the range grasses, lowering their palatability and productivity. This study was to determine whether morphological differences among breeding lines o+ grass species or interspecific hybrids could be correlated with the feeding behavior o+ black grass bugs. I+ so, plant breeders should be able to develop resistant cultivars. To explore this possibility, cultivars and synthetics o+ range grasses, representing the genera, Agropyron, Dactylis, Phalaris and Poa, were exposed to di++erent instar stages was examined under a scanning electron microscope. Leaf pubescence (trichomes) varied in density and size and appeared to be associated with resistance of plants in the genera, Agropyron, to the Labops nymphs (instar stages II and III> but had no relation with the feeding behavior of adult black grass bugs. Plant leaves of the general, Dactylis and Phalaris, were smooth (few and small if any trichomes> and were the least preferred of any of the grasses by all stages of the bugs. Trichomes on leaves of other genera were varied in density and size. Based on percent damage, preference by the nymphs was for the species with intermediate sized trichomes. The adult bugs showed no discrimination in their feeding behavior. Field grown plants developed more trichomes per unit leaf area and appeared to have thicker surface waxes than the same species grown in the greenhouse. For this reason, nymph feeding habits may be different in the field than in the greenhouse. Future studies should perhaps investigate (1) first stage nymph activity on field plants and (2) palatability and/or chemical differences of the grasses.

description: ErAs:In(Al)GaAs photoconductors have proven to be outstanding devices for photonic terahertz (0.1–10 THz) generation and detection with previously reported sub-0.5 ps carrier lifetimes. We present the so far most detailed material characterization of these superlattices composed of ErAs, InGaAs, and InAlAs layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The variation of the material properties as a function of the ErAs concentration and the superlattice structure is discussed with focus on source materials. Infrared spectroscopy shows an absorption coefficient in the range of 4700–6600 cm⁻¹ at 1550 nm, with shallow absorption edges toward longer wavelengths caused by absorption of ErAs precipitates. IV characterization and Hall measurements show that samples with only 0.8 monolayers of electrically compensated ErAs precipitates (p-delta-doped at 5 x 10¹³ cm⁻²) and aluminum-containing spacer layers enable high dark resistance (~10–20 MΩ) and high breakdown field strengths beyond 100 kV/cm, corresponding to > 500 V for a 50 μm gap. With higher ErAs concentration of 1.6 ML (2.4 ML), the resistance decreases by a factor of ~40 (120) for an otherwise identical superlattice structure. We propose a theoretical model for calculation of the excess current generated due to heating and for the estimation of the photocurrent from the total illuminated current. The paper concludes with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy measurements demonstrating the strengths of the material system and validating the proposed model.
title: An Evaluation of Variety--Interactions Under Conservation Tillage Wheat Cropping Systems

description: While many spring and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties have been evaluated for yield characteristics under Utah's conventional dryland cropping systems, little is known about these same varieties under new conservation tillage farming management techniques. Farmers are rapidly adopting various reduced tillage systems and need information regarding proper varieties, fertility practices, weed control , etc. A two year field study, in Box Elder County, Utah on a DeJarnet Gravelly silt loam (Loamy-skeletal, mixed, mesic, Calcic Pachic Haploxeroll) and on a Mendon silt loam (fine-silty, mixed, mesic, Calcic Pachic Argixeroll) examined total dry matter, grain yield, percent protein, kernel weight, kernel volume, and average bushel weight responses to four fertility treatments superimposed upon five spring wheat and four winter wheat varieties. Also compared were one spring wheat variety "Komar" and one winter wheat variety "Weston" in a conventional verses conservation tillage dryl and c ropping system. Soi 1 moisture and soi 1 temperature (20 em and 10 em, respectively bel ow the soi 1 surface) readings were compared between the conventional and conservation tillage planting systems. The conservation tillage plantings were done with an air-seeding tillage planter and the conventional plantings were done with standard deep-furrow drills. Dry granular fertilizer (27 -12-0-4 sulfur) was applied to both deepfurrow and conservation tillage plots with the air-seeder. Rates were 0, 168, 224, 280 kg/ha fertilizer material applied. Significant differences were obtained for all spring wheat varieties. Conservation-tilled "Komar" yielded significant yield increases over conventional-tilled "Komar". The opposite held true for "Weston", with the conventional-tilled plots yielding a slightly significant increase in grain over conservation-tillage "Weston". No relative difference in soil water or soil temperature were observed in either variety through time. However, at certain growth stages the differences were clearly discernable. Very little significant differences were established among the winter wheat varieties. Because of heavy infestations of snowmold (Calonectria graminicola) on all winter wheat plots, the true potential yield characteristics of conservation verses conventional tillage remain unproven on these winter wheat varieties.

description: Corn (Zea mays L.) seedlings possessed a high degree of tolerance to growth inhibitory effects of pre-emergent application of 2-chloro-N-isopropylacetanilide (propachlor), squash (Cucurbita maxima Duchesne) was intermediate in its response to the herbicide followed by oats (Avena sativa L.), lambsquarters (Chenopodium album L.) and redroot (Amaranthus retroflexus L.). Root growth was more severely retarded by lower concentrations of propachlor than was stem development.
Propachlor inhibited cell division in onion (Allium cepa L.) root tips. Aberrations in the mitotic behavior, such as contraction of chromosomes, was also induced. Cell elongation, in particular auxin induced cell elongation of oat coleoptile, was inhibited in direct proportion to propachlor concentration.
Concomitant with the inhibition of squash seedling growth and development, propachlor prevented the normal senescence of squash cotyledons. Cell wall expansion and breakdown and the utilization of proteinaceous and lipid reserves in the cotyledons were inhibited by propachlor treatment.
Amino acid activation, both in vivo as well as in vitro, was significantly reduced in squash whereas in corn, amino acid activation was inhibited only in vitro.
This inhibition of amino acid activation is postulated to be the primary mechanism of propachlor's herbictdal action. This inhibition would prevent the formation of proteinaceous compounds including (1) the enzyme complexes which would break down storage material, and (2) alter cell walls to allow cell elongation.
Identifying Anomalies in Gravitational Lens Time Delays

description: We examine the ability of gravitational lens time delays to reveal complex structure in lens potentials. In Congdon, Keeton & Nordgren (2008), we predicted how the time delay between the bright pair of images in a "fold" lens scales with the image separation, for smooth lens potentials. Here we show that the proportionality constant increases with the quadrupole moment of the lens potential, and depends only weakly on the position of the source along the caustic. We use Monte Carlo simulations to determine the range of time delays that can be produced by realistic smooth lens models consisting of isothermal ellipsoid galaxies with tidal shear. We can then identify outliers as "time delay anomalies". We find evidence for anomalies in close image pairs in the cusp lenses RX J1131$-$1231 and B1422+231. The anomalies in RX J1131$-$1231 provide strong evidence for substructure in the lens potential, while at this point the apparent anomalies in B1422+231 mainly indicate that the time delay measurements need to be improved. We also find evidence for time delay anomalies in larger-separation image pairs in the fold lenses, B1608+656 and WFI 2033$-$4723, and the cusp lens RX J0911+0551. We suggest that these anomalies are caused by some combination of substructure and a complex lens environment. Finally, to assist future monitoring campaigns we use our smooth models with shear to predict the time delays for all known four-image lenses.

description: The formulation of monetary policy by the central bank in order to achieve the target will only be effective with the presence of credibility. The role of credibility in supporting policy effectiveness has long been believed by economists and central bank practitioners, including determine the ability of central bank to manage the expectation of economic actors. Empirically, credibility is a qualitative concept, which is not easy to measure. There are several approaches have been used in measuring credibility, including using survey and constructing composite index from several indicators. For Indonesia’s case Bank Indonesia regularly conducts survey to external stakeholders to measure the policy credibility. The policy credibility survey is prepared based on 6 (six) aspects of credibility, i.e. formulation, independence, communication, accountability, coordination, and effectiveness. But, in practice, the survey method has several weaknesses for measuring policy credibility. In this research, we aim to utilize Big Data Analytics method, particularly text mining and machine learning, as an alternative method for measuring stakeholders' perceptions on Bank Indonesia’s credibility from news data. Measurement of credibility is done by utilizing machine learning models that are built based on annotated news sentences. From the out-of-sample evaluation results, we achieve an average F1-score of 61.1%. The resulting credibility index also moves in-line with the result of the policy credibility survey, with a correlation of 79.7%.
