description: The 1997/98 Texas-Oklahoma producer cotton markets experienced a decrease in the average producer price of almost 5.5 cents/lb. from the previous marketing year. Overall, quality was generally high and differed little from the 1996 crop. The size of the 1997 crop increased significantly, while the amount of cotton available in the spot market increased accordingly, possibly contributing to the fall in prices. With the exception of strength, discounts for the 1997 crop decreased for every quality attribute, while premiums increased for every quality attribute except staple.

description: We propose a deep learning analyzing technique with convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict the evolutionary track of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR) from the 21-cm differential brightness temperature tomography images. We use 21cmFAST, a fast semi-numerical cosmological 21-cm signal simulator, to produce mock 21-cm maps between $z=6 \sim 13$. We then apply two observational effects into those 21-cm maps, such as instrumental noise and limit of (spatial and depth) resolution somewhat suitable for realistic choices of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA). We design our deep learning model with CNN to predict the sliced-averaged neutral hydrogen fraction from the given 21-cm map. The estimated neutral fraction from our CNN model has a great agreement with its true value even after coarsely smoothing with broad beamsize and frequency bandwidth, and also heavily covered by noise with narrow. Our results have shown that deep learning analyzing method has a large potential to efficiently reconstruct the EoR history from the 21-cm tomography surveys in future.

description: Genetically engineered (GE) soybeans first became available to farmers in 1996. Despite the common questions regarding any new crop technology, the new seeds were rapidly adopted. This study examines the characteristics of adopters, as well as yield and weed control cost changes, using survey results from Delaware farmers at the start of the 2000 season. Duration analysis reveals that earlier-adopting farmers had larger farms and tended to use computers for financial management, while regression analysis shows significantly lower weed control costs and, to a lesser extent, higher yields for GE soybeans.

description: Spin-orbit torques offer a promising mechanism for electrically controlling magnetization dynamics in nanoscale heterostructures. While spin-orbit torques occur predominately at interfaces, the physical mechanisms underlying these torques can originate in both the bulk layers and at interfaces. Classifying spin-orbit torques based on the region that they originate in provides clues as to how to optimize the effect. While most bulk spin-orbit torque contributions are well studied, many of the interfacial contributions allowed by symmetry have yet to be fully explored theoretically and experimentally. To facilitate progress, we review interfacial spin-orbit torques from a semiclassical viewpoint and relate these contributions to recent experimental results. Within the same model, we show the relationship between different interface transport parameters. For charges and spins flowing perpendicular to the interface, interfacial spin-orbit coupling both modifies the mixing conductance of magnetoelectronic circuit theory and gives rise to spin memory loss. For in-plane electric fields, interfacial spin-orbit coupling gives rise to torques described by spin-orbit filtering, spin swapping and precession. In addition, these same interfacial processes generate spin currents that flow into the non-magnetic layer. For in-plane electric fields in trilayer structures, the spin currents generated at the interface between one ferromagnetic layer and the non-magnetic spacer layer can propagate through the non-magnetic layer to produce novel torques on the other ferromagnetic layer.

description: U.S. county-level net migration data and a general spatial model are used to examine the effects of various amenities on migration decisions. Results suggest that higher county cancer risks and the presence of superfund sites in a county, or a higher ranking on the Environmental Protection Agency's hazard ranking system, reduce the relative attractiveness of a county to prospective migrants, while natural amenities on balance attract migrants, ceteris paribus. The results also reveal spatial dependence among contiguous counties in terms of net migration behavior.
Studies of the auditory steady-state responses
Creators: name: Herdman, Anthony T.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Scalp-recorded auditory steady-state responses (ASSRs) to multiple stimuli may be useful in objectively estimating hearing thresholds of individuals who are unable to reliably respond behaviourally, such as infants. Primary objectives of the present thesis are: (1) to identify the anatomical location of neurons responsible for generating ASSRs; (2) to determine cochlear place specificity of the multiple-ASSR method; (3) to evaluate the benefit of using the multiple- ASSR method in estimating hearing thresholds, as compared to single-stimulus methods; and (4) to determine the accuracy of using multiple-ASSRs to estimate hearing thresholds in subjects with normal or impaired hearing. Results show that the entire auditory system contributes to the generation of ASSRs to modulated stimuli. Cortical neurons are more responsive at lower modulation frequencies (e.g., <40 Hz), whereas brainstem structures primarily generate ASSRs to higher modulation frequencies (e.g., 80 Hz). ASSRs to multiple amplitude-modulated tones (modulated between 77-105 Hz) reflect activation of approximately 1-octave-wide cochlear regions around each carrier frequency. This is similar to results reported for the auditory brainstem response method. As compared to presenting stimuli separately, simultaneously presenting multiple (i.e., at least 4 per ear) amplitude-modulated tones to evoke the ASSR can considerably reduce the time needed to estimate hearing thresholds for octave frequencies between 500 and 4000 Hz. Furthermore, multiple-ASSR thresholds are not different than thresholds for ASSRs to stimuli presented separately. For individuals with normal or impaired hearing, multiple-ASSR thresholds are approximately 5-15 decibels higher than behavioural thresholds, on average. Furthermore, multiple-ASSRs can accurately estimate the behavioural audiogram configurations (threshold by frequency) in subjects with various types of hearing impairments. Collectively, results from the present thesis indicate that the multiple-ASSR method is useful for evaluating hearing thresholds and provides advantages over the conventional objective audiometric methods.

description: This study assesses the economic and environmental effects to hog finishing farms from residual taxes/standards and restrictions on manure application and stocking density. Economic effects are measured in terms of net farm income and land prices, while levels of ammonia and excess nitrogen and phosphorus proxy the environmental effects. Any environmental policy requiring the need for additional land comes at a small cost to farmers who have access to adequate neighboring land. If this is not the case, then manure application and stocking density restrictions are expensive since the producer is basically forced to either purchase land or reduce hog production levels.

The Grüneisen function also becomes negative at $T_c$ followed by a dramatic increase to large positive values at low temperature. The results suggest anomalous coupling between superconducting electrons and low-energy phonons.

description: In this paper we give a combinatorial interpretation for the coefficient of $s_ν$ in the Kronecker product $s_{(n-p,p)}\ast s_λ$, where $λ=(λ_1, ..., λ_{\ell(λ)})\vdash n$, if $\ell(λ)\geq 2p-1$ or $λ_1\geq 2p-1$; that is, if $λ$ is not a partition inside the $2(p-1)\times 2(p-1)$ square. For $λ$ inside the square our combinatorial interpretation provides an upper bound for the coefficients. In general, we are able to combinatorially compute these coefficients for all $λ$ when $n>(2p-2)^2$. We use this combinatorial interpretation to give characterizations for multiplicity free Kronecker products. We have also obtained some formulas for special cases.

Single-cycle pulses of THz radiation allow measurements over a wide frequency range, spanning more than an octave below, at and above the bandgap of strongly dispersive photonic crystals. Transmission data provide evidence for slow group velocities at the photonic band edges and for superluminal transmission at frequencies in the gap. Our experimental results are in good agreement with finite-difference-time-domain simulations.

We find a consistent model of a massless spinning particle on an E10/K(E10) coset manifold whose dynamics can be mapped onto the fermionic and bosonic dynamics of D=11 supergravity in the near space-like singularity limit. This E10-invariant superparticle dynamics might provide the basis of a new definition of M-theory, and might describe the `de-emergence' of space-time near a cosmological singularity.

The purpose of this research study was to explore stakeholders’ perspectives on cognitive fatigue for children with ABI to inform future directions for clinicians and researchers.Method: Twelve parents of children with traumatic brain injury and 35 SLPs participated in an online survey with 33 and 49 questions, respectively, including participant characteristics and perspectives on cognitive fatigue.Results: Parents reported being between “somewhat” and “highly aware” about cognitive fatigue, whereas SLPs reported being between “neither aware or not aware” and “somewhat aware.” Parents reported being between “somewhat comfortable” and “very comfortable,” whereas SLPs reported being between “neither comfortable or uncomfortable” and “somewhat comfortable” addressing cognitive fatigue in children with ABI. SLPs “somewhat” to “strongly” agreed that cognitive fatigue for children with ABI was within their scope of practice. Parents and SLPs reported accommodations and strategies useful to managing cognitive fatigue in children with brain injury, as well as factors that worsen and lessen cognitive fatigue.Conclusions: While additional foundational and translation research is needed, the perspectives of parents and SLPs begin to address a critical gap in SLPs’ assessment and management of cognitive fatigue in children with ABI.Supplemental Material S1.

description: We study the space density evolution of active galactic nuclei (AGN) using the $610 \ \mathrm{MHz}$ radio survey of the XXL-North field, performed with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT). The survey covers an area of $30.4 \ \mathrm{deg}^2$, with a beamsize of $6.5 \ \mathrm{arcsec}$. The survey is divided into two parts, one covering an area of $11.9 \ \mathrm{deg}^2$ with $1 σ$ rms noise of $200\ \mathrm{μJy \ beam^{-1}}$ and the other spanning $18.5 \ \mathrm{deg}^2$ with rms noise of $45\ \mathrm{μJy \ beam^{-1}}$. We extracted the catalog of radio components above $7 σ$. The catalog was cross-matched with a multi-wavelength catalog of the XXL-North field (covering about $80 \%$ of the radio XXL-North field) using a likelihood ratio method, which determines the counterparts based on their positions and their optical properties. The multi-component sources were matched visually with the aid of a computer code: Multi-Catalog Visual Cross-Matching (MCVCM). A flux density cut above $1\ \mathrm{mJy}$ selects AGN hosts with a high purity in terms of star formation contamination based on the available source counts. After cross-matching and elimination of observational biases arising from survey incompletenesses, the number of remaining sources was $1150$. We constructed the rest-frame $1.4 \ \mathrm{GHz}$ radio luminosity functions of these sources using the maximum volume method. This survey allows us to probe luminosities of $ 23 \lesssim \log(L_{1.4 \ \mathrm{GHz}}[\mathrm{W/Hz}]) \lesssim 28$ up to redshifts of $z \approx 2.1$. Our results are consistent with the results from the literature in which AGN are comprised of two differently evolving populations, where the high luminosity end of the luminosity functions evolves more strongly than the low-luminosity end.

description: We use molecular-dynamics computer simulations to study the translational and reorientational dynamics of a glass-forming liquid of dumbbells. For sufficiently elongated molecules the standard strong steric hindrance scenario for the rotational dynamics is found. However, for small elongations we find a different scenario -- the weak steric hindrance scenario -- caused by a new type of glass transition in which the orientational dynamics of the molecule's axis undergoes a dynamical transition with a continuous increase of the non-ergodicity parameter. These results are in agreement with the theoretical predictions by the mode-coupling theory for the glass transition.

description: Model-based linkage methods have had limited success in locating quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in complex traits since the underlying genetic mechanisms are not well known. As a result, robust or model-free approaches for detecting linkage have grown in popularity. We discuss a mixed effects model, which involves the estimation of genetic and non-genetic variance components, as well as recombination fractions. Using the Genometric Analysis Simulation Program (GASP), we first attempt to investigate the properties of this method on simple traits, which differ in terms of their variance components. To further understand its performance in a complex setting, we apply this method to simulated, familial data for an oligogenic disease with quantitative risk factors from the 10th Genetic Analysis Workshop (GAW10). We see that the ability of the variance-components approach to map QTLs depends on the amount of variability it contributes to the quantitative trait. As well, we find that the presence of the recombination fraction in the model results in consistent estimates of the variance components across the chromosome; however, it does not seem to improve the mapping ability of the model.

description: Fluids adsorbed in 3D wedges are shown to exhibit two types of continuous interfacial unbinding corresponding to critical and tricritical filling respectively. Analytic solution of an effective interfacial model based on the transfer-matrix formalism allows us to obtain the asymptotic probability distribution functions for the interfacial height when criticality and tricriticality are approached. Generalised random walk arguments show that, for systems with short-ranged forces, the critical singularities at these transitions are related to 2D complete and critical wetting with random bond disorder respectively.

description: We study a model of mass-bearing coagulating planar Brownian particles. Coagulation is prone to occur when two particles become within a distance of order $ε$. We assume that the initial number of particles is of the order of $| \log ε|. Under suitable assumptions on the initial distribution of particles and the microscopic coagulation propensities, we show that the macroscopic particle densities satisfy a Smoluchowski-type equation.

description: A pooled cross-sectional, time series econometric model is used to examine factors affecting farmland values in Oregon from 1954-1978. Value of sales per acre (a proxy used to represent income per acre), average farm size, and the percentage of farmland were found to have a significant effect on farmland values for the entire state during the study period. However, the results also indicate that structural changes in agricultural land markets occurred across time and across subregions. Population density was shown to be a significant factor in the Willamette Valley. A positive intercept shifter for 1969-74 and a negative slope shifter for the value of product sales in the same period may reflect a temporal diminishment in buyers' tendencies to be influenced by potential product sales.

description: It is known than the inclusion of spatial curvature can modify the evolution of matter perturbations and affect the Large Scale Structure (LSS) formation. We quantify the effects of the non-zero space curvature in terms of LSS formation for a cosmological model with a running vacuum energy density and a warm dark matter component. The evolution of density perturbations and the modified shape of its power spectrum are constructed and analyzed.

description: The effects of mass-varying neutrinos on cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and large scale structures (LSS) are studied. In these models, dark energy and neutrinos are coupled such that the neutrino masses are functions of the scalar field playing the role of dark energy. We begin by describing the cosmological background evolution of such a system. It is pointed out that, similar to models with a dark matter/dark energy interaction, the apparent equation of state measured with SNIa can be smaller than -1. We then discuss the effect of mass-varying neutrinos on the CMB anisotropies and the matter power spectrum. A suppression of power in the CMB power spectrum at large angular scales is usually observed. We give an explanation for this behaviour and discuss different couplings and quintessence potentials to show the generality of the results obtained. We perform a likelihood analysis using wide-ranging SNIa, CMB and LSS observations to assess whether such theories are viable. Treating the neutrino mass as a free parameter we find that the constraints on the coupling are weak, since CMB and LSS surveys give only upper bounds on the neutrino mass. However, fixing a priori the neutrino masses, we find that there is some evidence that the existence of such a coupling is actually preferred by current cosmological data over the standard LambdaCDM cosmology.

description: X-ray absorption spectroscopy of thin films is central to a broad range of scientific fields, and is typically detected using indirect techniques. X-ray excited optical luminescence (XEOL) from the sample's substrate is one such detection method, in which the luminescence signal acts as an effective transmission measurement through the film. This detection method has several advantages that make it versatile compared to others, in particular for insulating samples or when a probing depth larger than 10nm is required. In this work we present a systematic performance analysis of this method with the aim of providing guidelines for its advantages and pitfalls, enabling a wider use of this method by the thin film community. We compare and quantify the efficiency of XEOL from a range of commonly used substrates. Our measurements demonstrate the equivalence between XEOL and x-ray transmission measurements for thin films. Moreover, we show the applicability of XEOL to magnetic studies by employing XMCD sum rules with XEOL-generated data. Lastly, we demonstrate that above a certain thickness XEOL shows a saturation-like effect, which can be modelled and corrected for.

description: We consider an evolution problem associated to the Kazdan-Warner equation on a closed Riemann surface $(Σ,g)$ \begin{align*} -Δ_{g}u=8π\left(\frac{he^{u}}{\int_Σhe^{u}{\rm d}μ_{g}}-\frac{1}{\int_Σ{\rm d}μ_{g}}\right) \end{align*} where the prescribed function $h\geq0$ and $\max_Σh>0$. We prove the global existence and convergence under additional assumptions such as \begin{align*} Δ_{g}\ln h(p_0)+8π-2K(p_0)>0 \end{align*} for any maximum point $p_0$ of the sum of $2\ln h$ and the regular part of the Green function, where $K$ is the Gaussian curvature of $Σ$. In particular, this gives a new proof of the existence result by Yang and Zhu [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145 (2017), no. 9, 3953-3959] which generalizes existence result of Ding, Jost, Li and Wang [Asian J. Math. 1 (1997), no. 2, 230-248] to the non-negative prescribed function case.

description: Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the development of artificial intelligence circuits and systems for edge computing applications. In-memory computing mixed-signal neuromorphic architectures provide promising ultra-low-power solutions for edge-computing sensory-processing applications, thanks to their ability to emulate spiking neural networks in real-time. The fine-grain parallelism offered by this approach allows such neural circuits to process the sensory data efficiently by adapting their dynamics to the ones of the sensed signals, without having to resort to the time-multiplexed computing paradigm of von Neumann architectures. To reduce power consumption even further, we present a set of mixed-signal analog/digital circuits that exploit the features of advanced Fully-Depleted Silicon on Insulator (FDSOI) integration processes. Specifically, we explore the options of advanced FDSOI technologies to address analog design issues and optimize the design of the synapse integrator and of the adaptive neuron circuits accordingly. We present circuit simulation results and demonstrate the circuit's ability to produce biologically plausible neural dynamics with compact designs, optimized for the realization of large-scale spiking neural networks in neuromorphic processors.

description: For rural areas in which large scale industrial and resource development projects are located, the need for timely projections of the magnitude and location of economic, demographic, fiscal and other likely impacts is clearly apparent. The purpose of this paper is to describe a computerized model for projecting the effects of large scale developments on business activity, personal income, employment, population, requirements for selected public and quasi-public services, and public sector costs and revenues and to demonstrate the utility of the model for projecting local area impacts. The structure, data base, and interrelationships of each of the model's six major components are described. Its validity in simulating economic and demographic changes at regional county and municipal levels is then evaluated.
Non-Gaussianity due to Possible Residual Foreground Signals in WMAP 1st-year Data Using Spherical Wavelet Approaches

description: We perform multi-scale non-Gaussianity detection and localization to the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) first-year data in both wavelet and real spaces. Such an analysis is facilitated by spherical wavelet transform and inverse transform techniques developed by the YAWtb team. Skewness and kurtosis as test statistics are calculated on scales from about $1^{\circ}$ to $30^{\circ}$ on the sky as well as toward different directions using anisotropic spherical Morlet wavelet (SMW). A maximum deviation from Gaussian simulations with a right tail probability of $\sim 99.9%$ is detected at an angular scale of $\sim12^{\circ}$ at an azimuthal orientation of $\sim 0^{\circ}$ on the sky. In addition, some significant non-Gaussian spots have been identified and localized in real space from both the combined Q-V-W map recommended by the WMAP team and the Tegmark foreground-cleaned map. Systematic effects due to beams and noise can be rejected as the source of this non-Gaussianity. Several tests show that residual foreground contamination may significantly contribute to this non-Gaussian feature. It is thus still premature to do more precise tests on the non-Gaussianity of the intrinsic CMB fluctuations before we can identify the origin of these foreground signals, understand their nature, and finally remove them from the CMB maps completely.
