description: Reducing household electricity consumption is of central relevance to climate policy given the share of 12.2% of the residential sector in greenhouse gas emissions. Drawing on data originating from the German Residential Energy Survey (GRECS), this paper estimates the contribution of individual appliances to household electricity demand using the conditional demand approach, which relies on readily obtainable information on appliance ownership. Moving beyond the standard focus of mean regression, we employ a quantile regression approach to capture the heterogeneity in the contribution of each appliance according to the conditional distribution of household electricity consumption. This heterogeneity indicates that there are quite large technical potentials for efficiency improvements and electricity conservation in private households. We also find substantial differences in the end-use shares across households originating from the opposite tails of the electricity consumption distribution, highlighting the added value of applying quantile regression methods in estimating consumption rates of electric appliances.

description: In recent years, the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices/sensors has increased to a great extent. To support the computational demand of real-time latency-sensitive applications of largely geo-distributed IoT devices/sensors, a new computing paradigm named "Fog computing" has been introduced. Generally, Fog computing resides closer to the IoT devices/sensors and extends the Cloud-based computing, storage and networking facilities. In this chapter, we comprehensively analyse the challenges in Fogs acting as an intermediate layer between IoT devices/ sensors and Cloud datacentres and review the current developments in this field. We present a taxonomy of Fog computing according to the identified challenges and its key features.We also map the existing works to the taxonomy in order to identify current research gaps in the area of Fog computing. Moreover, based on the observations, we propose future directions for research.

Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)

description: Parallel datasets are vital for performing and evaluating any kind of multilingual task. However, in the cases where one of the considered language pairs is a low-resource language, the existing top-down parallel data such as corpora are lacking in both tally and quality due to the dearth of human annotation. Therefore, for low-resource languages, it is more feasible to move in the bottom-up direction where finer granular pairs such as dictionary datasets are developed first. They may then be used for mid-level tasks such as supervised multilingual word embedding alignment. These in turn can later guide higher-level tasks in the order of aligning sentence or paragraph text corpora used for Machine Translation (MT). Even though more approachable than generating and aligning a massive corpus for a low-resource language, for the same reason of apathy from larger research entities, even these finer granular data sets are lacking for some low-resource languages. We have observed that there is no free and open dictionary data set for the low-resource language, Sinhala. Thus, in this work, we introduce three parallel English-Sinhala word dictionaries (En-Si-dict-large, En-Si-dict-filtered, En-Si-dict-FastText) which help in multilingual Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks related to English and Sinhala languages. In this paper, we explain the dataset creation pipeline as well as the experimental results of the tests we have carried out to verify the quality of the data sets. The data sets and the related scripts are available at https://github.com/kasunw22/sinhala-para-dict.

Production of gluten-free beer from pearl millet cultivar
Creators: name: Mekonnen, Fiseha
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: Pearl millet starch has featured in many foods recipes and industrial applications. However its use as a raw material in brewing has not received much attention. This work therefore sought to establish the suitability of pearl millet starch as a raw material substitute for barley in production of gluten-free beer. Two type of beer were produced, one with caramel and another without caramel. It is produced mainly from pearl millet grain (Pennisetum typhoideum) and the process of brewing involves malting, mashing, fermentation and packaging. Chemical analyses were carried out on both drinks, which not gave a significant (p≤0.05) difference. Pearl millet beer had a total acidity of 0.562±0.03, fixed acidity of 0.203±0.001, Volatile acidity 0.360±0.02, PH 3.92, specific gravity 1.042±0.003, total dissolved solids 1.12×105ppm, total suspended solids 1.65×105ppm, ethanol content of 4.45±0.03% respectively .The gelatinization temperature of pearl millet starch samples were determined and results ranged between 80 and 85°C. Other key parameters evaluated were wort perfect primaries, gravities and pH, attenuation limits, colour, and bitterness, Head retention (HR) and carbon dioxide (CO2) content of finished product were also determined. Results showed that the present gravities (PG), pH, bitterness (BU) and colour (EBC) obtained for the pearl millet starch wort samples ranged from, 65.64- 68.36°P, 5.39 – 6.09 PH, 24.25 – 25.65BU and 4.25 – 5.65 EBC respectively. In addition to the above parameters, two additional parameters, original gravities (OG) and alcohol by volume (abv) were measured for the pearl millet starch green beer with the following results, (OG) 58.24. – 60.78°P, (pH) 4.2 – 4.4, (BU) 20.5 – 19.6 BU, (abv) 4.45.6 – 4.56%. Results for head retention and carbon dioxide for finished products were, (HR) 77 – 83sec, (CO2) 3.08 – 3.43g/l. Sensory evaluation showed that the 25% pearl millet starch substituted sample was the most preferred based on estery flavor, tingly mouth feel, colour and bitterness. The microbial count for pearl millet beer had no growth of E.coli, streptococcus and staphylococcus but aspergillus was present from the 4th day and heaviest on the 8th day. While the drink which was made of barely with the same processing method had growth of staphylococcus and aspergillus which was seen from the 2nd day and heaviest on the 4th day but E.coli and streptococcus was absent. From the results, the drink which was made of pearl millet could keep for a longer period of time than the barely beer. Thus, the grain nature could extend the shelf-life of pearl millet beer longer than the barely beer at normal circumstance brewed. Keywords: pearl millet, bitterness, colour, attenuation limit, Fermentation time, Head retention.

description: This paper introduces a novel approach for generating videos called Synchronized Deep Recurrent Attentive Writer (Sync-DRAW). Sync-DRAW can also perform text-to-video generation which, to the best of our knowledge, makes it the first approach of its kind. It combines a Variational Autoencoder~(VAE) with a Recurrent Attention Mechanism in a novel manner to create a temporally dependent sequence of frames that are gradually formed over time. The recurrent attention mechanism in Sync-DRAW attends to each individual frame of the video in sychronization, while the VAE learns a latent distribution for the entire video at the global level. Our experiments with Bouncing MNIST, KTH and UCF-101 suggest that Sync-DRAW is efficient in learning the spatial and temporal information of the videos and generates frames with high structural integrity, and can generate videos from simple captions on these datasets.

description: Nearest-neighbour clustering is a simple yet powerful machine learning algorithm that finds natural application in the decoding of signals in classical optical-fibre communication systems. Quantum k-means clustering promises a speed-up over the classical k-means algorithm; however, it has been shown to not currently provide this speed-up for decoding optical-fibre signals due to the embedding of classical data, which introduces inaccuracies and slowdowns. Although still not achieving an exponential speed-up for NISQ implementations, this work proposes the generalised inverse stereographic projection as an improved embedding into the Bloch sphere for quantum distance estimation in k-nearest-neighbour clustering, which allows us to get closer to the classical performance. We also use the generalised inverse stereographic projection to develop an analogous classical clustering algorithm and benchmark its accuracy, runtime and convergence for decoding real-world experimental optical-fibre communication data. This proposed 'quantum-inspired' algorithm provides an improvement in both the accuracy and convergence rate with respect to the k-means algorithm. Hence, this work presents two main contributions. Firstly, we propose the general inverse stereographic projection into the Bloch sphere as a better embedding for quantum machine learning algorithms; here, we use the problem of clustering quadrature amplitude modulated optical-fibre signals as an example. Secondly, as a purely classical contribution inspired by the first contribution, we propose and benchmark the use of the general inverse stereographic projection and spherical centroid for clustering optical-fibre signals, showing that optimizing the radius yields a consistent improvement in accuracy and convergence rate.

description: The ability to spatially modulate the electronic properties of solids has led to landmark discoveries in condensed matter physics as well as new electronic applications. Although crystals of strongly correlated metals exhibit a diverse set of electronic ground states, few approaches to spatially modulating their properties exist. Here we demonstrate spatial control over the superconducting state in mesoscale samples of the canonical heavy-fermion superconductor CeIrIn5. We use a focused ion beam (FIB) to pattern crystals on the microscale, which tailors the strain induced by differential thermal contraction into specific areas of the device. The resulting non-uniform strain fields induce complex patterns of superconductivity due to the strong dependence of the transition temperature on the strength and direction of strain. Electrical transport and magnetic imaging of devices with different geometry show that the obtained spatial modulation of superconductivity agrees with predictions based on finite element simulations. These results present a generic approach to manipulating electronic order on micrometer length scales in strongly correlated matter.

Effect of Oat Flour Addition on the Physico-chemical and Microbiological Quality of Probiotic Bio-yoghurt
Creators: name: Tesfaye, Yared
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2013

description: This research was conducted with the aim of studying the effect of oat flour addition on the physico-chemical and microbiological quality of probiotic low fat bio-yoghurts. The low fat bioyoghurts were prepared through mixing of liquid skimmed milk with oat flour, starter culture, corn starch stabilizer, skimmed milk powder and sugar according to the basic formulation for bio-yoghurt production. The effect of mixing of oat flour (8%, 12 % and 16%) and storage days (7days, 14 days and 21days) on physico-chemical properties, microbiological qualities, proximate composition, and sensory qualities of the low fat bio-yoghurt has been studied. The oat flour (Avena sativa) variety had a nutritional composition of 5.62% moisture, 16.94% protein, 6.12% fat, 1.82% ash, 4.94% crude fiber and 64.65% carbohydrate, and the skimmed milk contained 0.31% fat, 3.51% protein and 0.86% ash. After fermentation, the proximate composition of the control bio-yoghurt, and the 8% Oat flour,12% and 16% Oat flour added bioyoghurts was; moisture (86.66%, 76.01%, 72.82% and 66.09%), crude protein (3.05%, 6.30%, 10.29% and 7.30%), crude fat (0.30%, 1.21%, 3.72% and 4.77%), crude fiber (0%, 4.03%, 4.80% and 4.97%) and ash (0.61%, 0.99%, 1.31% and 1.30%); respectively. The physicochemical results of the control bio-yoghurt and 16% oat flour added bio-yoghurts was; pH (4.49 and 4.55), syneresis (8.31% and 3.2%), TA (0.87% and 0.62%), App. Viscosity (0.66 pa.s and 0.83 pa.s) and proteolysis (0.34 and 0.48); respectively. Addition of corn starch stabilizer had reduced the effect of spontaneous whey separation which, was more significant (p<0.05) during higher amounts but because of other quality factors 2% was selected for processing of low fat bio-yoghurts. Aerobic plate count was found to be the predominant micro flora count of the final products and reached more than 8.3 log cfu/g. The sensory assessment result of the low fat bio-yoghurt was relatively acceptable by panelists in decreasing order of oat flour composition percentage comparing to that of the control. However, the most acceptable color, mouth feel, appearance, flavor and the highly preferred was the control low fat bio-yoghurt followed by samples blended with 8% and 12 % oat flour. In general, the low fat bio-yoghurt processed by mixing of partially skimmed milk with 8%, 12% and 16% oat flour and stored for 21 days gave promising results. Thus, it is possible to produce low fat bio- yogurts by incorporating oat flour to skimmed milk with additional ingredients and at a 42oc for 4-6 hr., fermentation temperature and time.

description: Closed testing procedures are classically used for familywise error rate (FWER) control, but they can also be used to obtain simultaneous confidence bounds for the false discovery proportion (FDP) in all subsets of the hypotheses. In this paper we investigate the special case of closed testing with Simes local tests. We construct a novel fast and exact shortcut which we use to investigate the power of this method when the number of hypotheses goes to infinity. We show that, if a minimal amount of signal is present, the average power to detect false hypotheses at any desired FDP level does not vanish. Additionally, we show that the confidence bounds for FDP are consistent estimators for the true FDP for every non-vanishing subset. For the case of a finite number of hypotheses, we show connections between Simes-based closed testing and the procedure of Benjamini and Hochberg.
Corrosion fatigue and stress corrosion cracking of magnesium alloys in a simulated physiological environment

Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Magnesium (Mg) alloys have attracted great attention as potential materials for temporary implants in uses such as pins, screws, plates and stents. The usage of Mg alloys is appealing as it avoids the need for a follow-up surgery commonly undertaken when implants are constructed out of traditional materials such as titanium alloys, stainless steels and cobalt-chromium alloys. This reduces health care costs and inconvenience for patients. However, the poor corrosion resistance of Mg alloys in the physiological environment presents a major challenge in their use as biodegradable temporary implants. The complex interaction of mechanical loadings and aggressive physiological environment also poses a considerable risk of premature failure of implants. The most critical mechanisms by which implants may fail are corrosion fatigue (CF) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC). It is therefore essential to fully characterize the CF and SCC resistance of Mg alloys as potential implants before putting them into actual use. Accordingly, this PhD thesis has attempted to evaluate CF and SCC resistance of one of the most common Mg alloys (i.e., AZ91D), and an extruded Mg alloy specifically designed for implant application (i.e., ZX10), in a simulated physiological environment. CF behaviour of Mg alloys was evaluated using tension-compression cyclic testing under simulated physiological conditions (i.e., modified-simulated body fluid (m-SBF) maintained at 37 °C at a frequency of 5 or 10 Hz). SCC of Mg alloys was investigated using slow strain rate tensile (SSRT) testing in the m-SBF at 37 °C. A substantial decrease in the mechanical integrity of tested alloy was observed under cyclic and monotonic loadings when tested in m-SBF. Fractographic evidence further confirmed susceptibility of Mg alloy to SCC and CF. ZX10 showed superior resistance to CF and SCC compared to AZ91D Mg alloy suggesting it is a more suitable material for temporary implant applications.

description: El presente artículo pretende abordar una reflexión en torno al papel desempeñado por la mujer en el Caribe Colombiano de acuerdo con las exigencias y necesidades que los modelos tanto educativos como laborales le plantearon entonces. Esta reflexión se hace por demás necesaria, si se tiene en cuenta que el estado actual de la historiografía regional muestra el poco interés que ha tenido la mujer en décadas anteriores para los investigadores, académicos y escritores, esto se puede observar en el número de estudios y textos publicados a lo largo de veintidós años.

The Effect Of Outsourcing Non-core Business Functions On Company's Performance: (The Case Of Commercial Bank Of Ethiopia
Creators: name: Tenkir, Tewodros
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: Outsourcing is a powerful strategic tool to cut cost, improve performance, and refocus on the core business functions. However, the outsourcing practice of CBE is confronted with weaknesses such as; lack of support from internal stakeholders and top management, lack of well defined service level agreement and unable to get committed outsourced staffs . This thesis was designed to identify effect of outsourcing noncore business functions on the company's performance the case of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. Data were collected through questionnaires, interview and internal documents of the Bank. Descriptive statistic and frequency, correlation and regression were utilized to analyze the data. Interpretation is made on the mean, frequency, and percentage of data. The study's result has implied that the outsourcing practice of non-core business functions of the Bank has unsolved problems. Theft of properties, both the security staffs and drivers lack commitment and loyalty, have ethical problems and lack of support from stakeholders and top management as expected. On the other hand some benefits are obtained by outsourcing the non-core business functions of the Bank. Among these outsourcing helps the Bank to focus on its core function, helps to minimize operating cost, avoid major investment in HR and reduce administrative burden of HRM of the Bank. Finally, the researcher suggests that the Bank should work hard to reverse the adverse impact of outsourcing by conducting due diligence on the delivering quality services, increasing customers' satisfaction and improving competitiveness & efficiency. The bank also ensures service provider's related work experience, ethical considerations, technical capabilities, the resource possessed are in a position to fit the requirements.
Differential Harnack inequalities for semilinear parabolic equations on Riemannian manifolds I: Bakry-Émery curvature bounded below

description: In this paper, we present a unified method for deriving differential Harnack inequalities for positive solutions of the semilinear parabolic equation \begin{equation*} \partial_t u=Δ_V u+H(u) \end{equation*} on complete Riemannian manifolds with Bakry-Émery curvature bounded below. This method transforms the problem of deriving differential Harnack inequalities into solving a related ODE system. As an application of this method, we obtain new and improved estimates for logarithmic-type equations and Yamabe-type equations. Moreover, under the non-negative Bakry-Émery curvature condition, we obtain complete sharp estimates for these equations. As a natural consequence of these results, we also establish sharp Harnack inequalities and Liouville-type theorems for these equations.
Prussian blue derived nanoporous hetero-interfaces for sensitive bio-probing
Creators: name: Kong, Biao
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Porous Prussian blue (PB), the oldest synthetic coordination compound, is a classic and fascinating novel transition metal coordination material. It is based on a three-dimensional cubic polymeric network consists of alternating ferric and ferrous ions. Fundamental understanding of the assembly mechanism of Prussian blue hetero-interfaces is essential to enable the full potential applications of PB crystals, ranging from chemical sensing to catalysis, gas storage, drug delivery and electronic display. Developing controlled assembly methods towards functional integrated hetero-interfaces with adjustable sizes and morphology of PB crystals is necessary. A key point in the functional interface and device integration of PB is fabrication of hetero-interfaces in well-defined and oriented fashions on given substrates. This thesis will bring together these key aspects of the hetero-interfaces of PB nanocrystals. Awards: Vice-Chancellor’s Commendation for Doctoral Thesis Excellence in 2015.

description: We develop two algorithms, based on maximum likelihood (ML) inference, for estimating the parameters of polarized radio sources which emit at a single rotation measure (RM), e.g., pulsars. These algorithms incorporate the flux density spectrum of the source, either a power law or a scaled version of the Stokes I spectrum, and a variation in sensitivity across the observing band. We quantify the detection significance and measurement uncertainties in the fitted parameters, and we derive weighted versions of the RM synthesis algorithm which, under certain conditions, maximize the likelihood. We use Monte Carlo simulations to compare injected and recovered source parameters for a range of signal-to-noise ratios, investigate the quality of standard methods for estimating measurement uncertainties, and search for statistical biases. These simulations consider one frequency band each for the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), and the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR). We find that results obtained for one frequency band cannot be easily generalized, and that methods which were developed in the past for correcting bias in individual frequency channels do not apply to wide-band data sets. The standard method for estimating the measurement uncertainty in RM is not accurate for sources with non-zero spectral indices. Furthermore, dividing Stokes Q and U by Stokes I to correct for spectral index effects, in combination with RM synthesis, does not maximize the likelihood.
description: This is a resubmission of the original manuscript. The covariance matrix that we calculated in equation (17) was not correct, and several of the \eta\ in section 3.1 should be replaced with \hat {\eta}. We fixed these mistakes in an Erratum that has been accepted for publication in MNRAS, and in this new version of the manuscript that we uploaded to arXiv

description: This paper tackles the challenging task of evaluating socially situated conversational robots and presents a novel objective evaluation approach that relies on multimodal user behaviors. In this study, our main focus is on assessing the human-likeness of the robot as the primary evaluation metric. While previous research often relied on subjective evaluations from users, our approach aims to evaluate the robot's human-likeness based on observable user behaviors indirectly, thus enhancing objectivity and reproducibility. To begin, we created an annotated dataset of human-likeness scores, utilizing user behaviors found in an attentive listening dialogue corpus. We then conducted an analysis to determine the correlation between multimodal user behaviors and human-likeness scores, demonstrating the feasibility of our proposed behavior-based evaluation method.

description: We consider finite collections of $N$ non-intersecting Brownian paths on the line and on the half-line with both absorbing and reflecting boundary conditions (corresponding to Brownian excursions and reflected Brownian motions) and compute in each case the joint distribution of the maximal height of the top path and the location at which this maximum is attained. The resulting formulas are analogous to the ones obtained in [MFQR13] for the joint distribution of $\mathcal{M}={\rm max}_{x\in\mathbb{R}}\{\mathcal{A}_2(x)-x^2\}$ and $\mathcal{T}={\rm argmax}_{x\in\mathbb{R}}\{\mathcal{A}_2(x)-x^2\}$, where $\mathcal{A}_2$ is the Airy$_2$ process, and we use them to show that in the three cases the joint distribution converges, as $N\to\infty$, to the joint distribution of $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{T}$. In the case of non-intersecting Brownian bridges on the line, we also establish small deviation inequalities for the argmax which match the tail behavior of $\mathcal{T}$. Our proofs are based on the method introduced in [CQR13,BCR15] for obtaining formulas for the probability that the top line of these line ensembles stays below a given curve, which are given in terms of the Fredholm determinant of certain "path-integral" kernels.
