title: Склонение фамилий на согласный, совпадающих с апеллятивами

Year: 2022

description: В настоящей статье исследуется вопрос склонения фамилий, совпадающих с апеллятивами. Согласно правилу русской грамматики все мужские фамилии, оканчивающиеся на согласный, склоняются, подобно тому как склоняются все нарицательные существительные мужского рода, оканчивающиеся на согласный. Вопреки грамматическому правилу, на практике можно встретить отступление от нормы. Более того, советский лингвист Д.Э.Розенталь даже косвенно оправдывает такое нарушение правила, не могущее считаться нормативным употреблением, но должное помечаться как отступление от грамматики. Автор изучает такие отступления и делает заключение о том, что фамилии подчиняются общему грамматическому правилу, поэтому не должно быть исключений из склонения мужских фамилий, оканчивающихся на согласный, независимо от их происхождения, совпадения с апеллятивами и даже в случае совпадения с пейоративами, как это имеет место в случае с фамилией французского писателя Жид и этнонимом жид.

Determination of the abundance of cosmic matter via the cell count moments of the galaxy distribution (1)

description: We demonstrate that accurate and precise information about the matter content of the universe can be retrieved via a simple cell count analysis of the 3D spatial distribution of galaxies. A new clustering statistic, the {\it galaxy clustering ratio} $η$, is the key in this process. This is defined as the ratio between one- and two-point second-order moments of the smoothed galaxy density distribution. The distinguishing feature of this statistic is its universality: on large cosmic scales both galaxies (in redshift space) and mass (in real space) display the same $η$ amplitude. This quantity, in addition, does not evolve as a function of redshift. As a consequence, the $η$ statistic provides insight into characteristic parameters of the real-space power spectrum of mass density fluctuations without the need to specify the galaxy biasing function, a model for galaxy redshift distortions nor the growing mode of density ripples. We demonstrate the method with the luminous red galaxy (LRG) sample extracted from the spectroscopic Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data release 7 (DR7) catalogue. Taking weak (flat) priors of the curvature of the universe ($Ω_k$) and of the constant value of the dark energy equation of state ($w$), and strong (gaussian) priors of the physical baryon density $Ω_bh^2$, of the Hubble constant $H_0$ and of the spectral index of primordial density perturbations $n_s$, we estimate the abundance of matter with a relative error of 8% ($Ω_m= 0.283\pm0.023$). We expect that this approach will be instrumental in searching for evidence of new physics beyond the standard model of cosmology and in planning future redshift surveys such as BigBOSS or EUCLID.

description: Abstract:
Albany is a multiphysics code constructed by assembling a set of reusable, general components. It is an implicit, unstructured grid finite element code that hosts a set of advanced features that are readily combined within a single analysis run. Albany uses template-based generic programming methods to provide extensibility and flexibility; it employs a generic residual evaluation interface to support the easy addition and modification of physics. This interface is coupled to powerful automatic differentiation utilities that are used to implement efficient nonlinear solvers and preconditioners, and also to enable sensitivity analysis and embedded uncertainty quantification capabilities as part of the forward solve. The flexible application programming interfaces in Albany couple to two different adaptive mesh libraries; it internally employs generic integration machinery that supports tetrahedral, hexahedral, and hybrid meshes of user specified order. We present the overall design of Albany, and focus on the specifics of the integration of many of its advanced features. As Albany and the components that form it are openly available on the internet, it is our goal that the reader might find some of the design concepts useful in their own work. Albany results in a code that enables the rapid development of parallel, numerically efficient multiphysics software tools. In discussing the features and details of the integration of many of the components involved, we show the reader the wide variety of solution components that are available and what is possible when they are combined within a simulation capability.

description: The objective of this study is to attempt to understand predictors of health among adult migrants from Myanmar to Thailand and predictors of development among their children. EQ5D5L scores and sociodemographic data were obtained among adult household members of children from two schools on the Thai/Myanmar border. Children were administered Ages and Stages questionnaires (ASQs). OLS and logistic regressions were used to examine predictors (e.g., witnessing gunfire) of various outcome measures (e.g., ASQ scores among children). In logistic regression analyses, maternal literacy proved to be a very strong predictor of the child’s ASQ communication [17 ASQ points out of 60; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 3, 31 points], problem solving (25 points; 95 % CI 4, 45 points), and social skills (12 points; 95 % CI 1, 23 points) scores. A lower number of habitants/room predicted significantly better dentition among children [odds ratio (OR) 1.08, 95 % CI 1.01, 1.67] and better social skills on the child’s ASQ (12 points; 95 % CI 1, 23 points). Appliance ownership was a weak predictor of adult health, with those who own a refrigerator having about an 8 % higher score on the EQ5D5L (1.08; 95 % CI 1.01, 1.16). Finally, parents who witnessed gunfire tended to have children with ASQ scores that were 14 points lower than average in problem solving (95 % CI −24, −4). Maternal education programs may have a very large impact on the development of their children. However, identifying those households at greatest need of resources is not a simple task, and will require a more complete census of communities at risk.
Stability of switched linear hyperbolic systems by Lyapunov techniques (full version)

description: Switched linear hyperbolic partial differential equations are considered in this paper. They model infinite dimensional systems of conservation laws and balance laws, which are potentially affected by a distributed source or sink term. The dynamics and the boundary conditions are subject to abrupt changes given by a switching signal, modeled as a piecewise constant function and possibly a dwell time. By means of Lyapunov techniques some sufficient conditions are obtained for the exponential stability of the switching system, uniformly for all switching signals. Different cases are considered with or without a dwell time assumption on the switching signals, and on the number of positive characteristic velocities (which may also depend on the switching signal). Some numerical simulations are also given to illustrate some main results, and to motivate this study.

description: 本研究は, AI技術を用いた歌唱旋律の生成における「歌いやすい」を定量化することを目的としている. 特に, 歌唱者が音程を正確に歌える旋律を自動生成するために, 音程やリズム, 歌詞の要素がどのように歌唱精度に影響を与えるかを解析する. 本研究ではその前段階として, 実際に実験参加者に歌唱してもらい, その歌唱がどれくらい正確に歌えているかを分析する. 実験では, 音の跳躍, BPM(Beats Per Minute), 歌詞の組み合わせによる18種類の旋律を用い, 100名の参加者に歌唱実験を行った. 録音されたデータはpYINアルゴリズムで解析し, 録音データと正解データのcent値の中央絶対誤差(MedAE)を使って音高の一致率を評価した. 

結果として, 音の跳躍パターンがMedAEに大きな影響を与える一方で, BPMの変化による影響は比較的小さいことが分かった. 具体的には, 音の跳躍が大きい(例えば3度以上)の場合, 歌唱者が音程を維持するのが難しく, MedAEが高くなる傾向が見られた. 一方, BPMの変化については, 一定範囲内ではリズムに適応しやすく, 歌唱精度への影響は限定的であった. この結果は, BPMが歌唱精度に与える影響がそれほど強くないことを示している. また, 参加者の慣れが精度に影響する可能性も示唆された. 特に初めて歌唱した旋律では, 音程が安定せずMedAEが高くなる傾向が見られたが, 歌唱を繰り返すことで精度が向上した. 今後の研究では, 特に影響が大きい音の跳躍パターンに注目し, 歌詞やリズムが歌唱精度に与える影響も含めたさらなる分析が必要である.

description: Abstract:
Unlike a conventional first-order continuum model, the material parameters of which can be identified via an inverse problem conducted at material point that exhibits homogeneous deformation, a higher-order continuum model requires information from the derivative of the deformation gradient. This study concerns an integrated experimental-numerical procedure designed to identify material parameters for higher-order continuum models. Using a combination of microCT images and macroscopic stress–strain curves as the database, we construct a new finite element inverse problem which identifies the optimal value of material parameters that matches both the macroscopic constitutive responses and the meso-scale micropolar kinematics. Our results indicate that the optimal characteristic length predicted by the constrained optimization procedure is highly sensitive to the types and weights of constraints used to define the objective function of the inverse problems. This sensitivity may in return affect the resultant failure modes (localized vs. diffuse), and the coupled stress responses. This result signals that using the mean grain diameter alone to calibrate the characteristic length may not be sufficient to yield reliable forward predictions.

We explore the relationship with Dirichlet forms and corresponding seminorms that are Markov and Leibniz, with corresponding matricial structure and metric on the state space. We also examine associated Laplace and Dirac operators, quotient energy seminorms, resistance distance, and the relationship with standard deviation.

description: This special issue of the International Journal for Multiscale Computational Engineering is dedicated to the field of computational poromechanics. We refer to the term poromechanics as a discipline that studies the coupled responses of multiphase materials that contain voids filled with one or multiple types of fluids. Materials fitting this description include many geological materials (e.g., sand, clay, and rock), live matters (e.g., bones, skins, periodontal ligament), and manufactured materials (e.g., concrete, diaper cores, and polymeric gels), among others. Inside a porous medium, the fluids in the voids may either be trapped inside the isolated pores or they may diffuse in the connected pore space. The multiple fluid constituents may also trigger chemical reactions among themselves or with the solid constituents. As a result, the deformation of the solid skeleton and the diffusion of the pore fluid are processes that strongly in- fluence each other. This coupling effect is important for many engineering applications central to our daily lives. For instance, the buildup of the pore fluid pressure may lead to the fracture of the solid constituent, which in return allows hydro-carbon to be extracted, as in the case of hydraulic fracture. If an enormous amount of fluid is injected underground, the resultant pore pressure buildup may also reactivate previously stable faults due to the reduction of effective mean pressure. Meanwhile, the hydro-mechanical coupling effect has also been used to characterize hydraulic properties that are difficult to obtain otherwise. For instance, one may indirectly estimate the effective permeability of the porous medium by examining the stress history of a given load, such as bending load applied on a beam or indentation applied on a poro-elastic half-space. The aforementioned engineering applications are just a few examples in which the knowledge of poromechanics is crucial. In recent years, the advancement of computational resource and the availability of more accurate and detailed experimental data and in situ data has made it possible to develop models with a new level of sophistication and a justifiable complexity. Meanwhile, new engineering challenges, such as geological disposal of captured carbon dioxide, nuclear waste, and the development of horizontal wellbores for hydraulic fractures, and forensic geotechnical engineering have motivated a growing interest to incorporate numerical modeling as an integral part of engineering design and analysis.This special issue provides a forum for presenting the state-of-the-art computational modeling for porous media.

Using Large Language Models for Template Detection from Security Event Logs

description: In modern IT systems and computer networks, real-time and offline event log analysis is a crucial part of cyber security monitoring. In particular, event log analysis techniques are essential for the timely detection of cyber attacks and for assisting security experts with the analysis of past security incidents. The detection of line patterns or templates from unstructured textual event logs has been identified as an important task of event log analysis since detected templates represent event types in the event log and prepare the logs for downstream online or offline security monitoring tasks. During the last two decades, a number of template mining algorithms have been proposed. However, many proposed algorithms rely on traditional data mining techniques, and the usage of Large Language Models (LLMs) has received less attention so far. Also, most approaches that harness LLMs are supervised, and unsupervised LLM-based template mining remains an understudied area. The current paper addresses this research gap and investigates the application of LLMs for unsupervised detection of templates from unstructured security event logs.

description: El propósito de esta avance es presentar una descripción y análisis del modo que adquiere la conflictividad social en una villa miseria. El territorio en análisis se caracteriza por una fuerte conflictividad a su interior. Hemos encontrado allí la expresión de al menos tres grandes ejes del conflicto, que se entrecruzan en forma permanente pero que analíticamente pueden ser aislados. El principal está dado por la confrontación diaria producto de los robos al interior del barrio. El segundo por los enfrentamientos y disputas entre pandillas por el control territorial de los ilegalismos. El tercero está centrado en la disputa por la conducción del barrio, en particular por los recursos que la organización barrial administra. El conflicto va estructurando el territorio social de modo que la situación de marginación se reproduce y profundiza. El estado de las confrontaciones dificulta la constitución de la unidad interna y la articulación transversal con otros grupos sociales, como modo de constituir un proceso de movilización que tienda a revertir la situación en la cual viven.
A semi-implicit discrete-continuum coupling method for porous media based on the effective stress principle at finite strain

description: Abstract:
A finite strain multiscale hydro-mechanical model is established via an extended Hill–Mandel condition for two-phase porous media. By assuming that the effective stress principle holds at unit cell scale, we established a micro-to-macro transition that links the micromechanical responses at grain scale to the macroscopic effective stress responses, while modeling the fluid phase only at the macroscopic continuum level. We propose a dual-scale semi-implicit scheme, which treats macroscopic responses implicitly and microscopic responses explicitly. The dual-scale model is shown to have good convergence rate, and is stable and robust. By inferring effective stress measure and poro-plasticity parameters, such as porosity, Biot’s coefficient and Biot’s modulus from micro-scale simulations, the multiscale model is able to predict effective poro-elasto-plastic responses without introducing additional phenomenological laws. The performance of the proposed framework is demonstrated via a collection of representative numerical examples. Fabric tensors of the representative elementary volumes are computed and analyzed via the anisotropic critical state theory when strain localization occurs.

description: A Phantom v7.3 fast digital camera was used to study visible light fluctuations in the High Beta Tokamak–Extended Pulse (HBT–EP). This video data is the first to be used to analyze and understand the behavior of long wavelength kink perturbations in a wall-stabilized tokamak. The light was mostly comprised of Dα 656 nm light. Profiles of the plasma light at the midplane were hollow with a radial scale length of approximately 4 cm at the plasma edge. The fast camera was also used to measure the plasma's response to applied helical magnetic perturbations. The programmed toroidal phase angle of the resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) was directly inferred from the resulting images of the plasma response. The plasma response and the intensity of the RMP were compared under different conditions. The resulting amplitude correlations are consistent with previous measurements of the static response using an array of magnetic sensors.
title: Autism Spectrum Conditions; the Age of, Recency of and Lack of Diagnosis
Creators: name: Dodd, Michelle
Publisher: name: University of Kent

description: Very little is known about autism spectrum conditions in adulthood, especially those that are diagnosed late in life or self-diagnosed; let alone how they were not diagnosed earlier or at all. As a relatively new subset of autistic people, it is also unclear how the timing and recency of an autism diagnosis might affect an individual. This research explores relationships between a range of cognitive, behavioural and mental health variables and the age and recency of a person’s diagnosis or self-diagnosis to address three questions; 1. Do individuals who received a diagnosis of an ASC in childhood differ in a range of variables from those who realised they are autistic as adults? (the age of autism diagnosis) 2. Do those without official diagnoses differ from those with official diagnoses? (the lack of diagnosis) 3. What role, if any, does the time elapsed since diagnosis or self-diagnosis of ASC play in these results? (the recency of diagnosis). A total of 409 clinically diagnosed autistic and self-diagnosed autistic people participated across three separate online surveys. Consistent findings across all studies show relationships between autistic traits and the time elapsed since diagnosis, as well as significant differences between diagnosed and self-diagnosed participants in levels of autistic traits, as measured with both the Autism Spectrum Quotient and the short Ritvo Autism and Asperger Diagnostic Scale. A significant difference in working memory between those diagnosed aged 18 or younger and those diagnosed over 18 was also found. Also, levels of camouflaging were found to be higher in participants without an official diagnosis. Implications arising from this research include greater awareness of the diagnostic and post-diagnostic needs of autistic people across their lifespan.

description: We develop an optical lattice system for an ultracold atomic gas mixture of ytterbium (174Yb) and lithium (6Li), which is an ideal system to study disorder and impurity problems. We load a Bose-Einstein condensate of 174Yb into a three-dimensional optical lattice and observe the interference patterns in time-of-flight (TOF) images. Furthermore, we perform a laser spectroscopy of 174Yb in an optical lattice using the ultra-narrow optical transition 1S0-3P2 in both cases with and without 6Li. Due to the weak interspecies interaction, we do not observe the clear influences of 6Li in the obtained interference patterns and the excitation spectra. However, this is an important first step of optical control of atomic impurity in ultracold fermions. We also measure the polarizabilities of the 3P2 state of 174Yb atoms in an optical trap with a wavelength of 1070 nm. We reveal that the polarizability can be tuned to positive, zero, or the same as the ground state, which are useful for certain applications.

By understanding biological burdens of long half-life toxicants by race and nativity we can better understand geographic variation in toxicant distribution. We used the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999–2006) biomonitoring data to examine differences in blood and urine levels of long half-life environmental toxicants of foreign-born relative to US-born people by race/ethnicity. We log transformed blood and urine measures of 51 environmental toxicants. We then used “seemingly unrelated regression,” a robust technique for making multiple comparisons across a group of variables with correlated error terms, to examine differences in blood and urine toxicants by nativity and race. We found that, compared to native-born Americans, the foreign-born are generally more likely to be exposed to metals (p < 0.001) and organochlorine pesticides (p < 0.001), but less likely to be exposed to dioxin-like compounds (p < 0.001) or polyflourinated compounds (p < 0.001). While levels of toxicants varied greatly by region of birth, US-born participants had consistently higher levels of dioxin-like compounds and polyflourinated compounds.

Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)

description: We develop a theoretical framework for the quasi-low-dimensional confinement-induced resonances (CIRs) of particles with the arbitrary three-dimensional two-body interactions, based on the Huang-Yang pseudopotential and the treatment of Feshbach resonances. Using this new approach, we analytically obtain some universal properties of dipolar CIRs in quasi-one-dimensional (1D) waveguides. We also show that the dipolar CIRs can be induced by tuning the angle between the dipole moments and the waveguide, which is experimentally observable in quasi-1D Cr and Dy atomic gases. We expect that these tilting angle induced CIRs will open up a new simpler way to control the resonant scatterings in quasi-low-dimensional systems.

Early childhood education

description: There are 25 million displaced children worldwide, and those receiving schooling are often educated in overcrowded classrooms. Montessori is a child-centred educational method that provides an alternative model to traditional educational approaches. In this model, students are able to direct their own learning and develop at their own pace, working with materials rather than in supervised groups or with direct teacher instruction. Because most children are working alone, teachers have more time to work one-on-one with children even when student-teacher ratios are quite large. This gives teachers increased opportunity to tailor their teaching to the specific needs and strengths of each student. We conducted an evaluation of Montessori classroom conversion for displaced students on the Thai-Myanmar border. We administered the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) to 66 children before and after classroom conversion and across treatment and control classroom conditions. We then conducted difference in difference testing. All domains showed meaningful improvements in ASQ scores, with the Montessori students gaining 18 points relative to the traditional students (p = 0.33). However, only the personal-social domain of the ASQ was statistically significant (8.8 point gain for the Montessori students relative to the control, p < 0.05) in our underpowered sample.

How Education Produces Health: A Hypothetical Framework

description: Background: High school graduates live six to nine years longer than high school dropouts. Those with less education are more likely to die prematurely of cardiovascular disease, cancer, infectious disease, diabetes, lung disease, and injury than those with more education. Although there is growing evidence that the education-health relationship is causal, and some mechanisms linking education to health have been proposed, there is no gestalt for thinking about the health production function of education.
Purpose: The purpose of this article is to outline the mechanisms through which education may produce health.

Design: I explore the health risk factors that are more prevalent among those with lower educational attainment to ascertain whether such risk factors plausibly cause the diseases for which the less educated are at risk. To examine these relationships, I conduct a review of the public health, economics, endocrinology, sociology, neurosciences, and other literatures.

Conclusions: A remarkably clear path can be drawn between what we now believe to be the risk factors for disease and the primary causes of death among those with lower attainment. Although hypothetical, the pathways outlined in this article can be used as a basis for thinking about the health production function of education. These mechanisms may better allow policy makers to understand the relationship between education and health. They may also be used to guide future research on the health benefits of education. Finally, although the proposed pathways are hypothetical, there is good overall evidence that education produces health. Therefore, health benefits should be included as core outcome measures in future education research.

Generalized T-splines and VMCR T-meshes
Creators: name: Bracco, Cesare

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)

description: The paper considers the extension of the T-spline approach to the Generalized B-splines (GB-splines), a relevant class of non-polynomial splines. The Generalized T-splines (GT-splines) are based both on the framework of classical polynomial T-splines and on the Trigonometric GT-splines (TGT-splines), a particular case of GT-splines. Our study of GT-splines introduces a class of T-meshes (named VMCR T-meshes) for which both the corresponding GT-splines and the corresponding polynomial T-splines are linearly independent. A practical characterization can be given for a sub-class of VMCR T-meshes, which we refer to as weakly dual-compatible T-meshes, which properly includes the class of dual-compatible (equivalently, analysis-suitable) T-meshes for an arbitrary (polynomial) order.
Steady state rheological behaviour of multi-component magnetic suspensions

description: In this paper we study the rheological behaviour (in the absence of magnetic field and upon its application) of multi-component magnetic suspensions that consist of a mixture of magnetic (iron) and non-magnetic (PMMA) particles dispersed in a liquid carrier. These suspensions exhibit considerably higher viscosity and yield stress in the absence of magnetic field than single-component suspensions of the same solid fraction, as a consequence of the adsorption of the iron particles on the PMMA ones. The adsorbed layer of iron particles on the PMMA ones is observed through optical microscopy of dilute samples and confirmed by attenuated total reflectance. Microscopic observations also show that the resulting non-magnetic-core-magnetic-shell composites move upon magnetic field application and aggregate into particle structures aligned with the applied field. These structures, which consist of both types of particles, give rise to high values of the static and dynamic yield stresses upon field application. Actually, both quantities are much higher than those of a suspension with the same volume fraction of magnetic particles, and increase when the amount of non-magnetic ones increases. These trends are adequately predicted by a theoretical model that considers that the main contribution to the yield stress is the change of the suspension magnetic permeability when particle chains are deformed by the shear.
Widening mortality disparities by educational attainment among native-born Americans adults over 3 decades of follow up: the mystery deepens

description: Mortality disparities between high school dropouts and high school graduates may be widening over time. These changes could simply reflect demographic changes among dropouts over time or could represent changes to the cognitive or social benefits of education itself. We used a unique dataset that contains 32 years of survey data, 38 years of mortality follow-up data, and a wide array of psychological, sociological, cognitive, and demographic questions to explore the underlying causes of widening disparities in survival among high school dropouts relative to graduates. We focus on individuals surveyed from 1978 through 1997, and focus on ten-year survival for each respondent. We confirm that mortality disparities between high school dropouts and high school graduates have widened over time. We also find that the racial composition, parental education, racial mix of neighborhoods, income, and verbal IQ of high school dropouts and high school graduates have changed greatly over the past three decades. However, while each of these factors is itself an important determinant of survival, we find that none of these factors (or combinations of them) explain the widening mortality disparities by high school graduation status over the two time periods we study. The widening disparities in survival time by educational attainment we observe are not linked to changes in the socio-demographic characteristics of high school dropouts relative to high school graduates.

description: El presente documento pretende contribuir a la comprensión del problema perenne de la relación entre teoría y práctica. Para ello, se propone una reconstrucción del antiguo tema del conflicto entre el filósofo y la polis. La reconstrucción de esta relación tiene por eje las figuras de Sócrates y Platón. Interesa dar a ver, a través de ellas, los modos en que la filosofía política, en sus orígenes, lidió con el carácter y situación política de su propia práctica. Esta reconstrucción es articulada por medio de una reposición de la manera en que algunos pensadores contemporáneos problematizan aquel conflicto y dan a ver los modos en que esa disputa persiste y trabaja en nuestra contemporaneidad.
