Understanding music cross-culturally : philosophical examination
Creators: name: Zenker, Renate Andrea Ruth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This dissertation presents a philosophical examination of an important question in music education: What does it mean to understand the music of our own culture or the music of another culture? It begins with a conceptual analysis of understanding, an analysis that reveals understanding has many different senses and that it involves a multidimensional range of considerations. The work presents an overview, summary, and analysis of various arguments, from both the Western and cross-cultural perspective, concerning what understanding music means. The literature and the arguments from the cross-cultural perspective are situated in the important debate of whether there are generic musical characteristics that can help us understand the music of non- Western cultures, characteristics shared by Western music, or if we can only understand the music of each culture based in the study of that culture. I argue that there has been an artificial "gap" created between understanding Western art music and understanding the music of other cultures. Based on my analysis of understanding, and the issues raised by the literature, I present a multidimensional and interrelated set of factors involved in understanding music cross-culturally. These factors are: elements (including expressive elements), concepts, terminology, internal/external musical context/structure, culture, listening, hearing, performing, and personal experiences, among others. This range of considerations is supported by philosophical literature on the general nature of understanding and attempts to resolve the tension between understanding music through generic concepts and understanding music through culture. The important point of the multidimensional nature of understanding for music education is that levels of sophistication of understanding are suggested and that moving from a less sophisticated to a more sophisticated level of understanding music should be a major aim of music education. Finally, I consider the educational implications of my range of considerations. Teaching for understanding music crossculturally involves both "top down" (teaching music through concepts) and "bottom up" (teaching music through culture) approaches. It also includes all the ways in which we engage ourselves with music: listening, performing, composing, improvising, and reading.

Minimal models for $g-2$ and dark matter confront asymptotic safety

description: We use the framework of asymptotic safety above the Planck scale to constrain the parameter space of simple models of new physics that can accommodate the measured value of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the relic density of dark matter. We couple parametrically to the trans-Planckian quantum physics a set of SU(2)$\times$U(1) invariant extensions of the Standard Model, each comprising an inert scalar field and one pair of colorless fermions that communicate to the muons through Yukawa-type interactions. The presence of an interactive UV fixed point in the system of gauge and Yukawa couplings imposes a set of boundary conditions at the Planck scale, which allow one to derive unique phenomenological predictions in each case and distinguish the different representations of the gauge group from one another. We apply to the models constraints from the $h\to μμ$ signal strength at ATLAS and CMS, direct LHC searches for electroweak production with leptons and missing energy in the final state, and the dark matter relic density. We find that they further restrict the available parameter space.

PRIMAL2: Pathfinding via Reinforcement and Imitation Multi-Agent Learning -- Lifelong

description: Multi-agent path finding (MAPF) is an indispensable component of large-scale robot deployments in numerous domains ranging from airport management to warehouse automation. In particular, this work addresses lifelong MAPF (LMAPF) - an online variant of the problem where agents are immediately assigned a new goal upon reaching their current one - in dense and highly structured environments, typical of real-world warehouse operations. Effectively solving LMAPF in such environments requires expensive coordination between agents as well as frequent replanning abilities, a daunting task for existing coupled and decoupled approaches alike. With the purpose of achieving considerable agent coordination without any compromise on reactivity and scalability, we introduce PRIMAL2, a distributed reinforcement learning framework for LMAPF where agents learn fully decentralized policies to reactively plan paths online in a partially observable world. We extend our previous work, which was effective in low-density sparsely occupied worlds, to highly structured and constrained worlds by identifying behaviors and conventions which improve implicit agent coordination, and enable their learning through the construction of a novel local agent observation and various training aids. We present extensive results of PRIMAL2 in both MAPF and LMAPF environments and compare its performance to state-of-the-art planners in terms of makespan and throughput. We show that PRIMAL2 significantly surpasses our previous work and performs comparably to these baselines, while allowing real-time re-planning and scaling up to 2048 agents.

An interdisciplinary approach to certain fundamental issues in the fields of physics and biology: towards a Unified Theory

description: Recent experiments appear to have revealed the possibility of quantum entanglement between spatially separated human subjects. In addition, a similar condition might exist between basins containing human neurons adhering to printed circuit boards. In both instances, preliminary data indicates what appear to be non-local correlations between brain electrical activities in the case of the human subjects, and also non-local correlations between neuronal basin electrical activities, implying entanglement at the macroscopic level. If the ongoing extended research and the analysis of same continues to support this hypothesis, it may then make it possible to simultaneously address some of the fundamental problems facing us in both physics and biology through the adoption of an interdisciplinary empirical approach based on Bell's experimental philosophy, with the goal of unifying these two fields.

description: Commercial export from Australia of native birds, wild or captive bred, is prohibited. This paper firstly describes the current legislation and regulations that restrict the export of native birds and discusses why governments have adopted such a regulatory approach to bird species preservation. Secondly, the paper reviews the debate concerning the export ban, pointing out strengths and weaknesses in arguments and indicating the important role of CITES. Lastly, the paper outlines a new case for a conditional lifting of the ban, whereby DNA fingerprinting is used to establish transferable property rights to overcome a main source of market failure in the preservation of bird species. Application of this DNA technology offers an opportunity both to protect wild populations and to develop a legitimate export industry based on breeding in captivity.

description: Deep neural networks are among the most widely applied machine learning tools showing outstanding performance in a broad range of tasks. We present a method for folding a deep neural network of arbitrary size into a single neuron with multiple time-delayed feedback loops. This single-neuron deep neural network comprises only a single nonlinearity and appropriately adjusted modulations of the feedback signals. The network states emerge in time as a temporal unfolding of the neuron's dynamics. By adjusting the feedback-modulation within the loops, we adapt the network's connection weights. These connection weights are determined via a back-propagation algorithm, where both the delay-induced and local network connections must be taken into account. Our approach can fully represent standard Deep Neural Networks (DNN), encompasses sparse DNNs, and extends the DNN concept toward dynamical systems implementations. The new method, which we call Folded-in-time DNN (Fit-DNN), exhibits promising performance in a set of benchmark tasks.

description: The paper contains a proposal for an energy and time representation. We construct modes that correspond to fuzzy distributions around discrete values of energy or time. The modes form an orthogonal and complete set in the space of square integrable functions. Energy and time are self adjoint in the space spanned by the modes. The widths of the modes are analyzed as well as their energy-time uncertainty relations. The lower uncertainty attainable for the modes is shown. We also show times of arrival for massless particles.

description: A comparison was made of increases in British and southern NSW wheat yields associated with genetic improvements. Estimates of these improvements were initially compared in each location using two different techniques. These techniques were a "variety improvement index" and a "vintage yield function". Yield increases "due to" genetic improvements were then compared between countries using both techniques. The variety improvement index technique suggested that there was little overall difference between genetic improvement in wheat in Britain and southern NSW. The vintage yield function technique suggested that the rate of yield increase for all varieties "due to" genetic improvement was markedly inferior in southern NSW. Estimated genetic improvement in southern NSW "food" wheats was similar to estimated genetic improvements in British bread wheats.

description: This paper introduces an energy-preserving stochastic model for studying wave effects on currents in the ocean mixing layer. The model is called stochastic forcing by Lie transport (SFLT). The SFLT model is derived here from a stochastic constrained variational principle, so it has a Kelvin circulation theorem. The examples of SFLT given here treat 3D Euler fluid flow, rotating shallow water dynamics and the Euler-Boussinesq equations. In each example, one sees the effect of stochastic Stokes drift and material entrainment in the generation of fluid circulation. We also present an Eulerian-averaged SFLT model (EA SFLT), based on decomposing the Eulerian solutions of the energy-conserving SFLT model into sums of their expectations and fluctuations.

description: In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the angular bispectrum of spherical random fields. Here, the asymptotic theory is developed in the framework of fixed-radius fields, which are observed with increasing resolution as the sample size grows. The results we present are then exploited in a set of procedures aimed at testing non-Gaussianity; for these statistics, we are able to show convergence to functionals of standard Brownian motion under the null hypothesis. Analytic results are also presented on the behavior of the tests in the presence of a broad class of non-Gaussian alternatives. The issue of testing for non-Gaussianity on spherical random fields has recently gained enormous empirical importance, especially in connection with the statistical analysis of cosmic microwave background radiation.

description: The Cygnus X-ray Emission Spectroscopic Survey (CyXESS) sounding rocket payload was launched from White Sands Missile Range on 2006 November 20 and obtained a high resolution spectrum of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant in the soft X-rays. The novel X-ray spectrograph incorporated a wire-grid collimator feeding an array of gratings in the extreme off-plane mount which ultimately dispersed the spectrum onto Gaseous Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors. This instrument recorded 65 seconds of usable data between 43-49.5 Åin two prominent features. The first feature near 45 Åis dominated by the He-like triplet of \ion{O}{7} in second order with contributions from \ion{Mg}{10} and \ion{Si}{9}-\ion{Si}{12} in first order, while the second feature near 47.5 Åis first order \ion{S}{9} and \ion{S}{10}. Fits to the spectra give an equilibrium plasma at $\log(T)=6.2$ ($kT_e=0.14$ keV) and near cosmic abundances. This is consistent with previous observations, which demonstrated that the soft x-ray emission from the Cygnus Loop is dominated by interactions between the initial blast wave with the walls of a precursor formed cavity surrounding the Cygnus Loop and that this interaction can be described using equilibrium conditions.

description: Detecting online hate is a difficult task that even state-of-the-art models struggle with. Typically, hate speech detection models are evaluated by measuring their performance on held-out test data using metrics such as accuracy and F1 score. However, this approach makes it difficult to identify specific model weak points. It also risks overestimating generalisable model performance due to increasingly well-evidenced systematic gaps and biases in hate speech datasets. To enable more targeted diagnostic insights, we introduce HateCheck, a suite of functional tests for hate speech detection models. We specify 29 model functionalities motivated by a review of previous research and a series of interviews with civil society stakeholders. We craft test cases for each functionality and validate their quality through a structured annotation process. To illustrate HateCheck's utility, we test near-state-of-the-art transformer models as well as two popular commercial models, revealing critical model weaknesses.

Fine structure, magnetic field and heating of sunspot penumbrae

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We interpret penumbral filaments as due to convection in field-free, radially aligned gaps just below the visible surface of the penumbra, intruding into a nearly potential field above. This solves the classical discrepancy between the large heat flux and the low vertical velocities observed in the penumbra. The presence of the gaps causes strong small-scale fluctuations in inclination, azimuth angle and field strength, but without strong forces acting on the gas. The field is nearly horizontal in a region around the cusp-shaped top of the gap, thereby providing an environment for Evershed flows. We identify this region with the recently discovered dark penumbral cores. Its darkness has the same cause as the dark lanes in umbral light-bridges, reproduced in numerical simulations by Nordlund and Stein (2005). We predict that the large vertical and horizontal gradients of the magnetic field inclination and azimuth in the potential field model will produce the net circular polarization seen in observations. The model also explains the significant elevation of bright filaments above their surroundings. It predicts that dark areas in the penumbra are of two different kinds: dark filament cores containing the most inclined (horizontal) fields, and regions between bright filaments, containing the least inclined field lines.

description: Registration of histological serial sections is a challenging task. Serial sections exhibit distortions and damage from sectioning. Missing information on how the tissue looked before cutting makes a realistic validation of 2D registrations extremely difficult. This work proposes methods for ground-truth-based evaluation of registrations. Firstly, we present a methodology to generate test data for registrations. We distort an innately registered image stack in the manner similar to the cutting distortion of serial sections. Test cases are generated from existing 3D data sets, thus the ground truth is known. Secondly, our test case generation premises evaluation of the registrations with known ground truths. Our methodology for such an evaluation technique distinguishes this work from other approaches. Both under- and over-registration become evident in our evaluations. We also survey existing validation efforts. We present a full-series evaluation across six different registration methods applied to our distorted 3D data sets of animal lungs. Our distorted and ground truth data sets are made publicly available.

description: In this paper the construction and application of ORANI-WINE is described. This is a special-purpose version of ORANI specifically designed for analysing policy questions bearing upon the alcoholic beverages sector of the Australian economy and on associated agricultural activities, especially viticulture. Details of the modifications made to ORANI are provided, and projections from ORANI-WINE of the effects of the imposition of a specific tax on domestically produced wine, equivalent to that on beer and malt in the base period, are reported. The approximately 58 per cent increase in the purchasers' price of wine induces a 16 per cent reduction in wine output, a two per cent increase in spirit production, but little effect on beer and malt output. Grape industry output is reduced nine per cent. The projections also emphasise mild inflationary effects on the economy, which impinge most severely on the export sectors (agriculture and mining). Rural employment falls two per cent.

This suggests a new parameterization of the remaining mixing degrees of freedom, which eschews mixing angles, dealing instead, directly with the complex parameter U_e3 of the mixing matrix. Unitarity triangles then take a particularly simple form, which we hope will faciltate comparison with experiment.

Subjects: subject: Education -- Research papers (Graduate)

description: Reading comprehension is a complex process often made increasingly difficult as readers are faced with content oriented reading material. The purpose of this study was to determine whether reciprocal teaching in the small group setting has an effect on reading comprehension. It was predicted that small group reciprocal teaching will have no significant effect on third grade students’ reading comprehension. Over the six weeks, students received reciprocal reading instruction designed to help internalize reading strategies that according to research, enhance comprehension. Results suggested small group reciprocal teaching had a positive effect on reading comprehension. When reciprocal teaching was applied in the small group setting, these participants demonstrated an increase in their comprehension.

description: The purpose of this study was to determine what factors influence African American males to leave high school without earning a diploma. Students were randomly selected into four categories: five ninth, five tenth, five eleventh, and five twelfth grade students.  Each grade level student completed an in-depth survey containing objective questions relating to educational, social, and socioeconomic factors that may influence black male students to withdraw from high school. The result indicates no single educational, social, or socioeconomic factor that would influence these black male students' decision to withdraw from school before graduation.  Research in this area should continue as there is much more information available regarding factors that influence black male students to leave high school without earning their diploma.

description: Using high-resolution hydrodynamics simulations, we show that equal-mass binaries accreting from a circumbinary disk evolve toward an orbital eccentricity of $e \simeq 0.45$, unless they are initialized on a nearly circular orbit with $e \lesssim 0.08$, in which case they further circularize. The implied bi-modal eccentricity distribution resembles that seen in post-AGB stellar binaries. Large accretion spikes around periapse impart a tell-tale, quasi-periodic, bursty signature on the light curves of eccentric binaries. We predict that intermediate-mass and massive black hole binaries at $z \lesssim 10$ entering the \emph{LISA} band will have measurable eccentricities in the range $e \simeq 10^{-3} - 10^{-2}$, if they have experienced a gas-driven phase. On the other hand, GW190521 would have entered the LIGO/Virgo band with undetectable eccentricity $\sim 10^{-6}$ if it had been driven into the gravitational wave regime by a gas disk.

description: Regional labour market studies have indicated that unemployment rates are considerably higher and participation rates lower, especially for females, in rural areas. A study of unemployment in four northern New South Wales towns of different sizes in May 1983, using household interview techniques and covering almost 1700 persons aged 15 years and over, revealed unemployment rates some 70 per cent above the national figure. In addition, participation rates were much lower and the duration of unemployment much greater than the national and state figures for the same month. Considerable variation was observed between the towns.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine to impact of teaching dyslexic students ages seven to eleven sight words utilizing all of their intelligences (interpersonal, intrapersonal, linguistic, visual-spatial, musical, mathematical, and kinesthetic) as opposed to using a typical Orton Gillingham method (visual, kinesthetic, auditory, tactile). Although the null hypothesis was supported, there was significant increase in students’ gains for reading and spelling sight words for both the control and experimental groups. Studies related to this topic should continue and should be conducted for longer periods of time, should utilize more students, and should cross examine scores with overall reading achievement.

The contrary hypothesis that the contribution of agricultural economists to the policy debate is hampered as much by our limited understanding of human behaviour and the lack of relevant data as it is by any preoccupation with efficiency is advanced in this paper. This notion is illustrated with reference to commodity stabilisation policy, the role of expectations in economic models, the economics of regulation and issues associated with the competitiveness of the rural sector. In discussing these issues, an attempt is made to outline areas where research is needed in order that agricultural economists can further the policy debate.

description: In EuroCC phase 1, Greek National Competence Center (NCC) (EuroCC@Greece) has created an ecosystem of tools platforms, training material and databases. In EuroCC Phase 2, a series of planned steps have been taken to harmonize the different products of EuroCC Phase 1 and at the same time to update the EuroCC@Greece key message and future HPC services. The latter consist of utilizing the expertise of the 5 consortium members, the needs of the Greek HPC landscape and the types of users (e.g. Academia, Industry, Public Sector and HPC experts) towards the design of the EuroCC@Greece HPC Services and Service Packs.

description: This research study delves into the strategic incorporation of robotics into global business operations, stressing the interaction between technological progress and geopolitical and economic factors. Through an analysis of historical events such as the Cold War, the rise of China, and the 2008 Financial Crisis, the study identifies trends that impact the development and spread of robotics technology. It also includes case studies of companies like Foxconn and Siemens, which shed light on the practical challenges and opportunities faced in different geopolitical and economic contexts. The findings emphasize the importance of geopolitical stability, regional dynamics, and workforce upskilling in the successful deployment of robotics. This research offers a comprehensive framework for businesses to navigate the complexities of international trade, geopolitical risks, and the changing robotics landscape, ultimately leading to improved operational efficiency and sustainable growth in a globalized market.
Electroweak symmetry breaking in the inverse seesaw mechanism

description: We investigate the stability of Higgs potential in inverse seesaw models. We derive the full two-loop RGEs of the relevant parameters, such as the quartic Higgs self-coupling, taking thresholds into account. We find that for relatively large Yukawa couplings the Higgs quartic self-coupling goes negative well below the Standard Model instability scale $\sim 10^{10}$ GeV. We show, however, that the ``dynamical'' inverse seesaw with spontaneous lepton number violation can lead to a completely consistent and stable Higgs vacuum up to the Planck scale.

Spiral galaxies with a central plateau in the gas velocity curve along the major axis

description: We present the minor-axis kinematics of ionized gas and stars for a sample of 5 spiral galaxies, which are characterized by either a zero or a shallow gas velocity gradient along their major axis. The asymmetric velocity profiles observed along the minor axis of NGC 4064 and NGC 4189 can be explained as due to the presence of a bar. This is also the case of NGC 4178 where the innermost portion of the gaseous disk is nearly face on. In NGC 4424 and NGC 4941, we measured non-zero gas velocities only in the central regions along the minor axis and gas velocities drop to zero at larger radii. This kinematic feature is suggestive of the presence of an orthogonally-rotating gaseous component which is confined in the innermost regions (i.e. an inner polar disk) to be confirmed with integral-field spectroscopy.

description: Of all parent compounds of iron-based high-temperature superconductors, EuFe2As2 exhibits by far the largest magnetostructural coupling due to the sizable biquadratic interaction between Eu and Fe moments. While the coupling between Eu antiferromagnetic order and Fe structural/antiferromagnetic domains enables rapid field detwinning, this prevents simple magnetometry measurements from extracting the critical fields of the Eu metamagnetic transition. Here we measure these critical fields by combining x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy with in-situ tunable uniaxial stress and applied magnetic field. The combination of two tuning knobs allows us to separate the stress-detwinning of structural domains from the field-induced reorientation of Eu moments. Intriguingly, we find a spin-flip transition which can only result from a strongly anisotropic interaction between Eu planes. We argue that this anisotropic exchange is a consequence of the strong anisotropy in the magnetically ordered Fe layer, which presents a new form of higher-order coupling between Eu and Fe magnetism.

description: I take it as obvious that we as a profession, as well as individual research organisations like the BAE, should think about research priorities. Brian Fisher's views on needs in agricultural policy research is a welcome contribution to this thinking. It is in the nature of such efforts that they will not attract universal agreement. Inevitably there will be debate and argument. This is healthy and desirable.

name: Tunstall, Allan W.
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 1992
Subjects: Agricultural and Food Policy

description: A case study of attempts by producers to obtain market reform is presented. Important background to the case is producers traditional mistrust of middlemen and the alleged failure of government regulations to protect the interests of producers. The New South Wales Farmers Association have attacked the Markets as corrupt and riddled with fraudulent malpractice. The paper analyses the events and processes which followed these allegations. An attempt is made to obtain a better theoretical understanding of the nature of competition in the Markets. The role of the bureaucracy in perpetuating the situation through narrow adherence to simplistic economics is examined.
A qualitative exploration of teacher assistants’ experiences and perceptions of their work
Creators: name: Robertson, Carolyn Patricia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This qualitative study investigates the work of teacher assistants supporting students with disabilities in the public education system of British Columbia. Guided by the question, "What are the experiences and perceptions of the teacher assistants as they support students with disabilities in public education?", a naturalistic-phenomenological methodology was used to explore the experiences and perceptions of eight teacher assistants through in-depth interviews. Described are six major themes that emerged from the data. These include: 1) a shared sense of purpose in their work, one of supporting students towards independence and an enhanced quality of life; 2) participation in the development of the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) for the students; 3) a large degree of variability and lack of clarity in the roles and responsibilities; 4) a high level of educational decision-making, responsibility, and autonomy in their work, including responsibility for adapting and modifying educational programs; 5) a low level of valuing and recognition for the work done, and 6) a strong sense of satisfaction and joy that arises from working with the students. There were a number of structural, attitudinal, and education issues that participants shared that contributed to the lack of clarity for the role and the tension between the high level of responsibility and low level of valuing and recognition. These findings support issues addressed in the current literature, including the lack of clarity of role and responsibilities, the need to educate teachers on ways to work with teacher assistants, and a lack of valuing and support for teacher assistants. They do not support the idea of increased education for teacher assistants as the sole means towards alleviating tensions arising in the field. A number of areas for further investigation arise from this study, as well as a call for further investigation in all aspects of the work of the teacher assistant.
