description: This paper focuses on anomaly detection for multivariate time series data in large-scale fluid handling plants with dynamic components, such as power generation, water treatment, and chemical plants, where signals from various physical phenomena are observed simultaneously. In these plants, the need for anomaly detection techniques is increasing in order to reduce the cost of operation and maintenance, in view of a decline in the number of skilled engineers and a shortage of manpower. However, considering the complex behavior of high-dimensional signals and the demand for interpretability, the techniques constitute a major challenge. We introduce a Two-Stage AutoEncoder (TSAE) as an anomaly detection method suitable for such plants. This is a simple autoencoder architecture that makes anomaly detection more interpretable and more accurate, in which based on the premise that plant signals can be separated into two behaviors that have almost no correlation with each other, the signals are separated into long-term and short-term components in a stepwise manner, and the two components are trained independently to improve the inference capability for normal signals. Through experiments on two publicly available datasets of water treatment systems, we have confirmed the high detection performance, the validity of the premise, and that the model behavior was as intended, i.e., the technical effectiveness of TSAE.

description: It would be untrue to say that the work of the high school for the past twenty-five years has been unsuccessful. The experiences in the last ten years have indicated, however, that secondary education could more effectively attain the basic purposes of education in our democratic culture if the individual child were given greater consideration than he has been accorded in the past. It is the aim of this study to record how one high school developed a plan to meet the needs of its pupils. It was in 1937 that the administrative staff and several teachers of Thomas Jefferson High School of Port Arthur, Texas, became more fully aware that concentration on the improvement of teaching subject matter and courses of study in the high school was not of prime importance in secondary education, but that the individual child is and of right ought to be "sacred by virtue of his individual freedom". As a result of this consciousness, a different program of work was gradually launched in Thomas Jefferson High School

description: Electricity distribution network system is considered one of the key component of the modern electrical power system. Due to increase in the energy demand, penetration of renewable energy resources into the power system has been extensively increasing in recent years. More and more distributed generations (DGs) are joining the distribution network to create balance in the power system and meet the supply and demand of consumers. Today, large amount of DGs inclusion in the distribution network system has completely modernized power system resulting in a decentralize electricity market. Hence, Government of UK is pressurizing 14 distribution network operators (DNOs) to include more DGs into their distribution network system. DGs inclusion in the network system might be helpful due to many factors, but it creates many challenges for distribution network system in the long term. The network security is realized to be one of the challenge that impact the efficiency of accurate calculation and distribution of network pricing among consumers. To address the aforementioned issue, this research analysed the network security on the basis of Long run incremental cost (LRIC) pricing to balance and reduce the network pricing for the DNOs in UK. However, this study presented an approach of Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) also called deep reinforcement learning algorithm (DQN) to optimize the reactive power values in the network to balance and reduce the network pricing while keeping the network security. The method considers IEEE14 bus as its mathematical model and practically simulates the method in MATLAB using DQN algorithm pseudo codes. The network security has been analysed with and without security factor before and after the nodal injection into the network.

description: Generating recommendations based on user-item interactions and user-user social relations is a common use case in web-based systems. These connections can be naturally represented as graph-structured data and thus utilizing graph neural networks (GNNs) for social recommendation has become a promising research direction. However, existing graph-based methods fails to consider the bias offsets of users (items). For example, a low rating from a fastidious user may not imply a negative attitude toward this item because the user tends to assign low ratings in common cases. Such statistics should be considered into the graph modeling procedure. While some past work considers the biases, we argue that these proposed methods only treat them as scalars and can not capture the complete bias information hidden in data. Besides, social connections between users should also be differentiable so that users with similar item preference would have more influence on each other. To this end, we propose Graph-Based Decentralized Collaborative Filtering for Social Recommendation (GDSRec). GDSRec treats the biases as vectors and fuses them into the process of learning user and item representations. The statistical bias offsets are captured by decentralized neighborhood aggregation while the social connection strength is defined according to the preference similarity and then incorporated into the model design. We conduct extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets to verify the effectiveness of the proposed model. Experimental results show that the proposed GDSRec achieves superior performance compared with state-of-the-art related baselines. Our implementations are available in \url{https://github.com/MEICRS/GDSRec}.

Synthesis of single- and few- layer graphene by chemical vapor deposition of methane on copper and platinum
Creators: name: Aridah, Sanad
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Graphene has been in the spotlight of research activity for the past decade, this two-dimensional lattice of carbon atoms has strong SP2 covalent bonds that give the material characteristics unmatched by any other substance in terms of mechanical strength, electrical and heat conductivity, as well as flexibility. This project explored the synthesis of Graphene using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), a process well known for its ability to produce high quality, defect-free solid materials. The system was modified to chemically deposit Methane onto Platinum and Copper catalysts at temperatures nearing 1040° C. The resulting samples were characterized using Raman Spectroscopy, the Raman spectrums provide essential information regarding the number of layers in the Graphene structure and whether or not the structure is free of defects. The analyzed Raman spectrums of Graphene on platinum indicate that the relationship between the flow rate and the intensity peak ratio of the 2D/G bands as well as the growth time and the location of the G-band are linear, however, the growth time seems to have less of a clear influence on the intensity peak ratio due to factors like the high solubility of carbon in Pt, the deposition of amorphous carbon near the grain boundaries and the size of the carbon grains themselves. The Raman spectrums of two of the copper samples show G- and 2D- bands that are fitted in the shape of a Lorentzian function, the bands are located near 2710 CM-¹ and 2712 CM-¹ with line widths of 36 CM-¹ and 34 CM-¹ respectively, the G-bands are located near 1590.3 CM-¹ and 1589 CM-¹, with 2D/G intensity peak ratios of ~1.22 and ~1.92 respectively. The D/G intensity peak ratios of both samples were near ~0.07 which is a clear sign that the Graphene structure formed on the surface is defect-free.

description: We obtain asymptotic estimates of the interaction forces between kink and antikink in a family of field-theoretic models with two vacua in (1+1)-dimensional space-time. In our study we consider a new class of soliton solutions previously found in our paper [Chaos, Solitons and Fractals 165 (2022) 112805]. We focus on the case of kinks having one exponential and one power-law asymptotics. We show that if the kink and antikink are faced each other with long-range tails, the force of attraction between them at large separations demonstrates a power-law decay with the distance. We also performed numerical simulations to measure the interaction force and obtained good agreement between the experimental values and theoretical estimates.

description: We propose an action parsing algorithm to parse a video sequence containing an unknown number of actions into its action segments. We argue that context information, particularly the temporal information about other actions in the video sequence, is valuable for action segmentation. The proposed parsing algorithm temporally segments the video sequence into action segments. The optimal temporal segmentation is found using a dynamic programming search algorithm that optimizes the overall classification confidence score. The classification score of each segment is determined using local features calculated from that segment as well as context features calculated from other candidate action segments of the sequence. Experimental results on the Breakfast activity data-set showed improved segmentation accuracy compared to existing state-of-the-art parsing techniques.

Power Damping Controller with Self-Synchronization Capability using BATS Echolocation Algorithm for incorporating VSCs to Weak Grids
Creators: name: Ch. Sri Mrudula
name: Dr. K. Sreelatha
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019
Subjects: DG; VSC; Power Damping, PV Arrays

description: In this paper, a new BATS Echolocation Algorithm based control topology is used to enable effective integration of voltage source converters (VSCs) in weak grids. The controller consisting of two main parts include a linear power-damping and synchronizing controller which automatically synchronizes a VSC to a grid by providing damping and synchronizing power components, and enables effective full power injection even under very weak grid conditions. The controller adopts cascaded angle, frequency and power loops for frequency and angle regulation. The controller emulates the dynamic performance of synchronous machines, which eases grid integration and provides a virtual inertia control framework for VSCs to damp power and frequency oscillations. While the linear controller offers stable and smooth operation in many cases, it cannot warrant system stability in weak grids, where sudden large disturbances hastily drift system dynamics to the nonlinear region. To trounce this intricacy, BATS Echolocation Algorithm based controller is developed to aid the linear controller and boost system performance under large-signal nonlinear disturbances, such as self-synchronization, disturbances in grid frequency and angle, high power injection in very weak grids and fault-ride-through conditions.

description: E-learning and -teaching concepts have become an important part in further and academic education. Such approaches enable the participants to develop skills and talents as well as experience and attitudes from numerous sources to one comprehensive overall context independently from time and space. The online business simulation Chameleon offers the possibility to increase the level of difficulty and include additional assignments based on the elucidated competency models in order to be able to adjust the configuration during gameplay. Chameleon was developed and conducted by the author and takes place in a mandatory elective course in the second term (spring) of the master program Construction Management and Economics. It deals with content of the following compulsory courses: Building Contract Law, Project Management, Investment and Financing, Operations Management and Corporate Governance. Analyzes of already conducted Chameleon sessions show a significant increases of competencies among the participants. Considering additional data, it seems that an E-learning and -teaching concept based on an online business simulation offers indeed an additional benefit for the students.

description: The primary motive frequently mentioned in the context of the conceptualization of business simulations is the general aim of promoting the cognitive and affective learning. Objectives of business simulations are, e.g., the advancement of social aptitudes or the pooling of arguments and facts to reach the best possible result. These examples demonstrate that a business simulation in general furthers certain competencies indeed, but it is not taken into consideration whether it complies with the current professional needs of the target group. In view of this, business simulations achieve high relevance in the context of the current discussions on competencies and their acquisition. However, within the current developments an appropriate basis is needed to increase the quality of business simulation concepts in general. Therefore, business simulations have to gain orientation towards valid and reliably developed, target group-oriented models of competency. The presented development framework is a tool for designers of competency-oriented business simulations that allows the easy integration of occupationally demanded competency standards into business simulation models. Beyond this, the framework also offers the extraordinary advantage of modular and expandable business simulations, which are suitable for a significant number of user groups. Consequently, business simulation designers will be in the position to address one or more competencies with one model only.

How the macroeconomic undercurrent of trade influenced the lives of the historic Cromarty family through immigration, employment, and family building : a representation of the time
Creators: name: Singh-Aujla, Jenna R.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: As part of a community partnership initiative between the University of British Columbia Geography Department and Parks Canada Fort Langley, a research inquiry was analyzed. This inquiry, as part of a research in historical geography course, has been shaped around course goals, existing literature, primary sources, and the goals of Fort Langley. The result has been a research process framed around the question: how did the macroeconomic undercurrents of Fort Langley shape the lives of the historic Cromarty family? Through extensive research, it has been concluded that trade did, in fact, influence the lives of the Cromartys in three distinct ways: immigration, employment, and family building. Furthermore, the Cromartys therefore exemplify similar historic families of the time. In addition, Aboriginal people were very much incorporated into the process of trade influence, and therefore the same three shaping factors can be used to explain their unique perspective at Fort Langley.
How to Save the World: How Learning to Use the Bureaucratic Paradigm and Its Three Conditions Can Solve, A Personal Problem and Lead to the Solution of Intractable Social Problems

description: Abstract: The existence of paradigms, defined as society’s and its individuals’ most fundamental assumptions concerning the structure of both the physical and social world, lie behind people’s personal issues, as well as society’s most troubling problems. Such problems range from nuclear terror to racism. Invisibly lurking behind these problems, supporting them and making them difficult to solve, are our paradigms. One paradigm in particular, the bureaucratic paradigm with its rigid hierarchy, division of labor and knowledge, and strict conformity of its managers and workers, is the origin of the aggression that causes all of our intractable social problems. This essay shows that attacking these problems by attempting to change the structure of bureaucracies cannot succeed, since nearly everyone who lives in a bureaucratic modern society has been taught to think bureaucratically; therefore, we are unable to envision less bureaucratic institutions that can foster the creativity required to solve social problems. Alternatively, however, by learning to see how the bureaucratic paradigm and three of its concomitant conditions can be used to solve our individual problems, we can become more capable of solving worldwide social problems. Once we begin to change our individual bureaucratic paradigm, we will then be able to make our organizations less dependent on the bureaucratic paradigm so that we can make progress in solving our most threatening social problems.

Commemorating with (in)visibility : the case of the Japanese Canadian War Memorial
Creators: name: Kwok, Perry
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Interrogation of the histories and symbolisms embedded in the Japanese Canadian War Memorial, located in Stanley Park, Vancouver, revealed a narrative of not only the disempowerment of Japanese Canadians, but also empowerment through proactive financial and institutional support against the climate of discriminatory politics in British Columbia. The "national memory" of Canadian war remembrance has embraced the dissemination of Anglo-centered narratives by mainstream memorials like the Canadian National Vimy Memorial in France and the Ottawa National War Memorial. As such spaces displaced "other" narratives like visible minority war efforts in WWI, the "national memory" embedded in current commemorating practices of Canadian war remembrance is not representative to the actual realities of Canadian history. Japanese Canadian disenfranchisement and (dis)empowerment were essential factors driving Japanese Canadian volunteers to enlist and serve on the Western Front. The paper argues for a major extension of public attention and knowledge regarding the symbols and narratives "bled" within the Japanese Canadian War Memorial for a more legitimized practice of Canadian war remembrance.

description: We discuss the properties of topologically nontrivial superconducting phases and the conditions for their realization in condensed matter, and the principles for identifying Majorana bound states (MBSs). Along with the well-known Kitaev chain and superconducting nanowire (SW) models with spin-orbit coupling in an external magnetic field, we discuss models of quasi-2D materials in which MBSs are realized in the presence of noncollinear spin ordering. For finite-length SWs, we demonstrate a cascade of quantum transitions occurring with a change in the magnetic field, accompanied by a change in the fermion parity of the ground state. The corresponding anomalous behavior of the magnetocaloric effect can be used as a tool for identifying MBSs. We devote considerable attention to the analysis of the transport characteristics of devices that contain topologically nontrivial materials. The results of studying the conductance of an Aharonov-Bohm ring whose arms are connected by an SW are discussed in detail. An important feature of this device is the appearance of Fano resonances in the dependence of conductance on the magnetic field when the SW is in a topologically nontrivial phase. We establish a relation between the characteristics of such resonances and the spatial structure of the lowest-energy SW state. The conditions for the occurrence of an MBS in the phase of the coexistence of chiral $d+id$ superconductivity and 120-degree spin ordering are determined in the framework of the $t-J-V$ model on a triangular lattice. We take electron-electron interactions into account in discussing the topological invariants of low-dimensional superconducting materials with noncollinear spin ordering. The formation of Majorana modes in regions with an odd value of a topological $\mathbb{Z}$ invariant is demonstrated. The spatial structure of these excitations in the Hubbard fermion ensemble is determined.

description: Machine Learning models are used in a wide variety of domains. However, machine learning methods often require a large amount of data in order to be successful. This is especially troublesome in domains where collecting real-world data is difficult and/or expensive. Data simulators do exist for many of these domains, but they do not sufficiently reflect the real world data due to factors such as a lack of real-world noise. Recently generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been modified to refine simulated image data into data that better fits the real world distribution, using the SimGAN method. While evolutionary computing has been used for GAN evolution, there are currently no frameworks that can evolve a SimGAN. In this paper we (1) extend the SimGAN method to refine one-dimensional data, (2) modify Easy Cartesian Genetic Programming (ezCGP), an evolutionary computing framework, to create SimGANs that more accurately refine simulated data, and (3) create new feature-based quantitative metrics to evaluate refined data. We also use our framework to augment an electrocardiogram (ECG) dataset, a domain that suffers from the issues previously mentioned. In particular, while healthy ECGs can be simulated there are no current simulators of abnormal ECGs. We show that by using an evolved SimGAN to refine simulated healthy ECG data to mimic real-world abnormal ECGs, we can improve the accuracy of abnormal ECG classifiers.

A close study on the relationship between the historical geography and Kerrisdale architectural styles

description: Recent years, the rate of character homes in Vancouver rises in alarming pace. Especially, Marpole, Oakridge and Kerrisdale have experienced drastic change in the landscape. Many houses, built before 1940s with a great condition and unique character have been demolished. For example, through Facebook webiste, Vancouver Vanishes, residences in Kerrisdale express their concerns and mourn the loss of beautiful houses. The creation of Kerrisdale was influenced by many factors such as Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR), and people settled in the area. One was that CPR wanted to create a pastoral image of English countryside. Although houses were not as extravagant and luxurious as Shaughnessy area, Kerrisdale was so influenced by the idea CPR pursued. Also between 1910 and 1930, English style houses represented the privilege, high status, creating the anglophile tradition. Secondly, the dominant rate of the British also determined the taste of houses. In the essay, I attempt to raise the important connection between architectural styles and the past pioneer to emphasize houses are more than just buildings. They are a mnemonic of the past and that they are in danger of extinction due to poor management and outdated laws to protect them.

description: This report evaluates current practices, challenges, and gaps in the reference libraries and repositories for environmental DNA (eDNA) in monitoring aquatic biodiversity, with a particular focus on Europe. The study finds that COX1, 16S, ITS, and 18S are the most common molecular markers in reference libraries, which mainly store data in public databases like NCBI GenBank, BOLD, and SILVA. However, metadata quality varies significantly, and metadata standards are frequently overlooked.

The inventory for eDNA repositories, compiled through extensive manual review, questionnaires, and automated paper mining, highlights 55 repositories but finds only 20% of these are highly relevant for broader use. Most repositories are regularly updated, though only a fraction provide annual updates or API support. Inconsistent metadata standards, incomplete taxonomic confidence indicators, and a lack of workflow details limit interoperability and accessibility.

The report concludes that progress is needed in metadata standardization, consistent taxonomic curation, and increased interoperability across repositories. Additionally, standardized workflows are critical to make eDNA data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR). The report suggests encouraging open access, mandating eDNA data submission to repositories, and developing incentives for comprehensive data documentation to enhance data quality and usability across Europe’s aquatic ecosystems.

description: In June, 2009 DasErste (Erstes Deutsches Fernsehen), the prominent publicly owned German TV channel, ran a provocative report by Ulf Kalkreuth on the possible membership of the author Dieter Wellershoff in the NSDAP. The report cites Wellershoff’s remark on his attitude toward Adolf Hitler: “Ich stellte mir einen deutschen Führer ganz anders vor—so wie den Bamberger Reiter.” Then Kalkreuth responds: “Der Bamberger Reiter—ausgerechnet! Von den Nazis vereinnahmt, als arisches Symbol schlechthin.” This arrogation of a 13th-century equestrian statue standing in the Bamberg cathedral is the topic of our essay, which is part Forschungsbericht and part analysis of a question: “How is it possible that the image of the Bamberger Reiter, chosen personally by Edwin Redslob, the Reichskunstwart of the Weimar Republic, to decorate legal tender in 1920 as “ein Symbol des deutschen Menschen,” appeared in the same decade on the cover of books on Rassenkunde by Hans F.K. Günther, the favorite of Wilhelm Frick, as an icon of National Socialist racial theory?” Surprisingly, given the wealth of research on the Bamberger Reiter, this question is scanted in scholarly accounts. Here the author sketches the forces at play in the transformation of the Bamberger Reiter from representative democratic citizen to Nazi beau ideal, then surveys the efforts of five intellectuals to promote, and sustain, this metamorphosis. They are Günther, Paul Schultze-Naumburg, Walter Hege, Wilhelm Pinder, and Fritz Hippler. The author, aware that the matters raised here might more properly be treated in a monograph, conceives of this piece as a preliminary study and offers it with the hope that it engenders further research.
