description: The ever-increasing expansion of cities, reduction of natural resources, traffic density and congestion are only some of destructive effects left by inadvertent growth of population and related irrational expansion on natural and cultural environments of the communities. Smart growth, is opposed to extensive city growth, emphasizes in city-dwelling and urbanism to create viable communities, proximity to nature and perseveration of open spaces and valuable lands, survival and revival of city center and restriction of suburban growth of city and reduction of reliance on personal vehicle etc. in order to decrease consequences and problems caused by horizontal city growth as mentioned above.
The methodology of this study is of descriptive-analytical type and data collection was done by librarian and documentary technique. This study aims to review and recognize and interpret smart city growth patterns and to identify the existing barriers in Iranian cities and to explore status quo of Dezful city in terms of physical development and horizontal expansion of the given city and to determine rate of compliance of feature of this city to smart city growth patterns. The results of this investigation suggest that despite of having potential capacities to achieve growth of a smart city and lack of preparation of the suitable grounds for this ideal, Dezful city has been remarkably subject to horizontal expansion and it had very poor smart city network compared to the medium-size and developed cities of the world.

description: Many food products show a high level of vertical and horizontal product differentiation. Manufacturers may instrument product differentiation to limit competition and to increase price dispersion. In this paper, we estimate a panel error correction cost pass-through model for the German yoghurt market over a six year period (t = 312) to determine the impact of product differentiation on price competition between individual brands and varieties of yoghurt. We find that more differentiated products show higher markups, reduced equilibrium cost pass-through and lower speed of cost-price adjustments. The results indicate that manufacturers (and/or retailers) use product differentiation to limit price competition.

COMMENT
Excluded from Algeria. Trabut (1941) reported that there exists a collection supposedly collected in the “cascades de Tlemcen ” by Dr. Zoernig and identified by Stephani, but that after having searched the cascades himself, he only found Apopellia endiviifolia (sub Pellia fabroniana). He also commented that the thallus of M. hibernica closely resembles that of P. endiviifolia. He, therefore, considers his presence in Algeria doubtful. The report was compiled by Jelenc (1955a), indicating the locality “Monts de Tlemcem, cascades d’El Ourit”. The presence of this Circumpolar Boreo-temperate species that grows on flushed rock faces or wet peaty ground (Blockeel et al. 2014a) in Algeria is here rejected.

description: The article presents a study using attacks such as a fake access point and a phishing page. The previous publications on social engineering have been reviewed, statistics of break-ups are analyzed and directions and mechanism of realization of attacks having elements of social engineering are analyzed. The data from the research in three different places were collected and analyzed and the content statistics were provided. For comparison, three categories of higher education institutions were chosen: technical, humanitarian and mixed profiles. Since the research was conducted in educational institutions during the week, most students in the experiment and graduate students took part in the experiment. For each educational institution, a registration form template was created that mimicked the design of the main pages. Examples of hardware and software implementation of a typical stand for attack, data collection and analysis are given. In order to construct a test stand, widely available components were chosen to show how easy it is to carry out attacks of this kind without significant initial costs and special skills. The article provides statistics on the number of connections, permission to use the address of the e-mail and password, as well as permission to automatically transfer service data to the browser (cookies). The statistics are processed using specially written algorithms. The proposed approaches to solving the problem of socio-technical attacks can be used and implemented for operation on any objects of information activity. As a result of the experiments, it is clear that the awareness of users of even technical specialties is not enough, so one needs to pay particular attention to the development of methods for raising awareness of users and reducing the number of potential attacks on objects of information activity.

description: We present results from a deep mid-infrared survey of the Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S) region performed at 7 and 15 micron with the CAM instrument on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The final map in each band was constructed by the coaddition of four independent rasters, registered using bright sources securely detected in all rasters, with the absolute astrometry being defined by a radio source detected at both 7 and 15 micron. We sought detections of bright sources in a circular region of radius 2.5 arcmin at the centre of each map, in a manner that simulations indicated would produce highly reliable and complete source catalogues using simple selection criteria. Merging source lists in the two bands yielded a catalogue of 35 distinct sources, which we calibrated photometrically using photospheric models of late-type stars detected in our data. We present extragalactic source count results in both bands, and discuss the constraints they impose on models of galaxy evolution models, given the volume of space sampled by this galaxy population.

description: It is shown that the corrections of $α^2$ order to the total cross sections for interaction of elementary hydrogen-like atoms with target atoms, reported in the previously published paper [S.Mrowczynski, Phys.Rev. D36, 1520 (1987)], do not include some terms of the same order of magnitude. That results in a significant contribution of these corrections in particular cases. The full $α^2$-corrections have been derived and it is shown that they are really small and could be omitted for most practical applications.

Large presence of carbonic acid in CO$_2$-rich aqueous fluids under Earth's mantle conditions

description: The chemistry of carbon in aqueous fluids at extreme pressure and temperature conditions is of great importance to Earth's deep carbon cycle, which substantially affects the carbon budget at Earth's surface and global climate change. At ambient conditions, the concentration of carbonic acid in water is negligible, so aqueous carbonic acid was simply ignored in previous geochemical models. However, by applying extensive ab initio molecular dynamics simulations at pressure and temperature conditions similar to those in Earth's upper mantle, we found that carbonic acid can be the most abundant carbon species in aqueous CO$_2$ solutions at ~10 GPa and 1000 K. The mole percent of carbonic acid in total dissolved carbon species increases with increasing pressure along an isotherm, while its mole percent decreases with increasing temperature along an isobar. In CO$_2$-rich solutions, we found significant proton transfer between carbonic acid molecules and bicarbonate ions, which may enhance the conductivity of the solutions. The effects of pH buffering by carbonic acid may play an important role in water-rock interactions in Earth's interior. Our findings suggest that carbonic acid is an important carbon carrier in the deep carbon cycle.

Exceptional Point of Sixth Order Degeneracy in a Modified Coupled Resonators Optical Waveguide

description: We demonstrate for the first time the occurrence of a sixth order exceptional point of degeneracy (EPD) in a realistic multimode optical photonic structure by using a modified periodic coupled resonators optical waveguide (CROW), at the optical wavelength ${λ_e} = 1550 nm$. The 6th order EPD is obtained in a CROW without the need of loss or gain and such an EPD corresponds to a very special band edge of the periodic photonic structure where six eigenmode coalesce, so we refer to it as the 6th order degenerate band edge (6DBE). Moreover, we report a new scaling law of the quality factor Q of an optical cavity made of such a periodic 6DBE-CROW with cavity length as $Q{\propto}N^7$ with $N$ being the number of unit cells in the periodic finite-length CROW. Furthermore, we elaborate on the application of the 6DBE to ultra-low-threshold lasers. We present a novel scaling law of the lasing threshold that scales as $N^{-7}$when operating near the 6DBE. Also, we show the superiority of the threshold scaling of the 6DBE-CROW to the scaling of another CROW with the same size operating near a 4th order EPD that is often referred to as the degenerate band edge (DBE). The lasing threshold scaling of the DBE-CROW laser is shown here for the first time. We also discuss the high sensitivity of the proposed 6DBE-CROW to perturbations, that may find applications in sensors, modulators, optical switches, nonlinear devices, and Q-switching cavities.

description: We study the multiplicity of BPS domain walls in N=1 super Yang-Mills theory, by passing to a weakly coupled Higgs phase through the addition of fundamental matter. The number of domain walls connecting two specified vacuum states is then determined via the Witten index of the induced worldvolume theory, which is invariant under the deformation to the Higgs phase. The worldvolume theory is a sigma model with a Grassmanian target space which arises as the coset associated with the global symmetries broken by the wall solution. Imposing a suitable infrared regulator, the result is found to agree with recent work of Acharya and Vafa in which the walls were realized as wrapped D4-branes in IIA string theory.

Learning Visual Features Under Motion Invariance

description: Humans are continuously exposed to a stream of visual data with a natural temporal structure. However, most successful computer vision algorithms work at image level, completely discarding the precious information carried by motion. In this paper, we claim that processing visual streams naturally leads to formulate the motion invariance principle, which enables the construction of a new theory of learning that originates from variational principles, just like in physics. Such principled approach is well suited for a discussion on a number of interesting questions that arise in vision, and it offers a well-posed computational scheme for the discovery of convolutional filters over the retina. Differently from traditional convolutional networks, which need massive supervision, the proposed theory offers a truly new scenario for the unsupervised processing of video signals, where features are extracted in a multi-layer architecture with motion invariance. While the theory enables the implementation of novel computer vision systems, it also sheds light on the role of information-based principles to drive possible biological solutions.

The search for possible counterparts is based on the possible associations of the clusters with radio sources within a circle having a radius of 6 arcmin. We then investigated the possible optical or mid-IR associations of these sources, checking if they show some properties typical of new blazar candidates.

The particle content and interactions of these models are conveniently represented by a graph with sites and links, describing the gauge theory space structure. While the theories are supersymmetric ``locally'' in theory space, supersymmetry can be explicitly broken by topological obstructions.

description: Most of the free parameters in the Standard Model (SM) -- a quantum field theory which has successfully elucidated the behaviors of strong, weak and electromagnetic interactions of all the known fundamental particles, come from the lepton and quark flavors. The discovery of neutrino oscillations has proved that the SM is incomplete, at least in its lepton sector; and thus the door of opportunity is opened to exploring new physics beyond the SM and solving a number of flavor puzzles. In this review article we give an overview of important progress made in understanding the mass spectra, flavor mixing patterns, CP-violating effects and underlying flavor structures of charged leptons, neutrinos and quarks in the past twenty years. After introducing the standard pictures of fermion mass generation, flavor mixing and CP violation in the SM extended with the presence of massive Dirac or Majorana neutrinos, we briefly summarize current experimental knowledge about the flavor parameters of quarks and leptons. Various ways of describing flavor mixing and CP violation are discussed, the renormalization-group evolution of flavor parameters is illuminated, and the matter effects on neutrino oscillations are interpreted. Taking account of possible extra neutrino species, we propose a standard parametrization of the $6\times 6$ flavor mixing matrix and comment on the phenomenological aspects of heavy, keV-scale and light sterile neutrinos. We pay particular attention to those novel and essentially model-independent ideas or approaches regarding how to determine the Yukawa textures of Dirac fermions and the effective mass matrix of Majorana neutrinos, including simple discrete and continuous flavor symmetries. An outlook to the future development in unravelling the mysteries of flavor structures is also given.

Information regarding such documents can be accessed online in the Theses and Dissertations Catalog (TDC), which contains abstracts in Portuguese and English, and additional metadata. Thus, this database can be a potential source of parallel corpora for the Portuguese and English languages. In this article, we present the development of a parallel corpus from TDC, which is made available by CAPES under the open data initiative. Approximately 240,000 documents were collected and aligned using the Hunalign tool. We demonstrate the capability of our developed corpus by training Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) and Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models for both language directions, followed by a comparison with Google Translate (GT). Both translation models presented better BLEU scores than GT, with NMT system being the most accurate one. Sentence alignment was also manually evaluated, presenting an average of 82.30% correctly aligned sentences. Our parallel corpus is freely available in TMX format, with complementary information regarding document metadata

title: Information literacy instruction in Ontario middle grade classrooms
Creators: name: Colucci, Abigail
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2020

description: This research study focused on the integration of information literacy instruction within a middle grade (grades 5-8) school setting based on the analysis and discussion of data gleaned from surveyed information professionals, research literature, and government, school, or library association guidelines. Although there is an abundance of research literature on the necessity of information literacy in a school setting, research and case studies often revolve around US schools and the common core curriculum and do not provide recommendations on the best practices of information literacy instruction based on Ontario or Canadian schools. First, this research examined a variety of literature focusing on information literacy within middle-grade classrooms, specifically looking at the suggestions of the current trends and future needs of information literacy instruction within an Ontario middle school environment (grades 5-8). Second, it analyzed data collected from a questionnaire of information professional’s current practices for information literacy instruction, then examined the pros and cons of each institution’s digital and information literacy curriculum. Last, it reviewed the recommendations and best practices of individual respondents. The study found that, while librarians felt that most administration and other educators recognized the importance of information literacy, the subject was often glossed over and librarians were not used for their expertise. To better implement information literacy, librarians saw the need for better support from administration, improved collaboration between librarians and teachers, and encouraged board-wide policies promoting information literacy as an essential element within the curriculum.

description: Colombia, a country that is very vulnerable to climate change, has played a positive role in international climate negotiations. Paradoxically, Colombia is also the sixth largest coal exporter globally, and its government has adopted policies to further increase the country’s production of coal and other fossil fuels. This article explores to what extent the national government reproduces a powerful paradigm – namely, that fossil fuel extraction is necessary for development – and how this resonates at the sub-national level. We find that the government’s narrative has evolved to accommodate Colombia’s changing national circumstances and public criticism. Though counternarratives exist, they have struggled to propose credible nationwide alternatives to extractive-based development, thus reinforcing the belief that extraction-based development is unavoidable. We describe how government narratives constitute an obstacle to both supply-side policies to restrict fossil fuel development and to transitional assistance policies to adjust to shifts in the global coal market. Key policy insightsThe view that fossil fuel extraction is necessary for development is a powerful barrier to supply – side climate policy.This view also hinders the formulation of transitional assistance policy.Empirical evidence that fossil fuel extraction seldom leads to equitable development is not enough to overcome this view.Narratives on fossil fuel-based development continuously adjust to prevailing economic development paradigms and contemporary development challenges.

description: Realistic nuclear reaction cross-section models are an essential ingredient of reliable heavy-ion transport codes. Such codes are used for risk evaluation of manned space exploration missions as well as for ion-beam therapy dose calculations and treatment planning. Therefore, in this study, a collection of total nuclear reaction cross-section data has been generated within a GSI-ESA-NASA collaboration. The database includes the experimentally measured total nucleus–nucleus reaction cross-sections. The Tripathi, Kox, Shen, Kox–Shen, and Hybrid-Kurotama models are systematically compared with the collected data. Details about the implementation of the models are given. Literature gaps are pointed out and considerations are made about which models fit best the existing data for the most relevant systems to radiation protection in space and heavy-ion therapy.

description: Landmark-based navigation systems have proven benefits relative to traditional turn-by-turn systems that use street names and distances. However, one obstacle to the implementation of landmark-based navigation systems is the complex challenge of selecting salient local landmarks at each decision point for each user. In this paper, we present Pharos, a novel system that extends turn-by-turn navigation instructions using a single global landmark (e.g. the Eiffel Tower, the Burj Khalifa, municipal TV towers) rather than multiple, hard-to-select local landmarks. We first show that our approach is feasible in a large number of cities around the world through the use of computer vision to select global landmarks. We then present the results of a study demonstrating that by including global landmarks in navigation instructions, users navigate more confidently and build a more accurate mental map of the navigated area than using turn-by-turn instructions.

description: This research examines productivity growth of agricultural cooperatives using the Malmquist productivity index (MI) under constant returns to scale and the biennial Malmquist productivity index (BMI) assuming variable returns to scale. A nonparametric data envelopment analysis approach is used to calculate both the MI and BMI. Results from the two methods are compared to evaluate whether the decomposition into technical and efficiency changes are similar under the MI and BMI methods.

DIAGNOSTIC ALGORITHM FOR LARYNGEAL PATHOLOGY

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: The treatment of laryngeal diseases requires a multidisciplinary approach. However, choosing the right treatment strategy largely depends on an adequate diagnosis of all nuances of the disease. The similarity of the clinical and endoscopic presentation of laryngeal lesions does not always allow for a definitive diagnosis. In these cases, computed tomography (CT) of the larynx helps. However, it is difficult for clinicians to determine the appropriate CT examination option, including intravenous contrast enhancement, which necessitates the development of guidelines.
Examining the Labor Market Consequences of Endogenous Low-skill Migration with a Market-based Immigration Policy

description: The undocumented migration of Mexican nationals to the U.S. is largely influenced by the availability of labor demand in unskilled sectors in the U.S., making it more efficient than the legal channels of migration available to unskilled Mexican nationals. Labor demand in unskilled industries is larger than the available unskilled labor in the U.S., but Mexican migrants, who constitute the majority share of foreign-born individuals in the U.S., are immigrating at the lowest rates in modern times, with net Mexican migration at approximately zero. This paper simulates a market-based immigration system for Mexican nationals, with a focus on the partial equilibrium effects in long run supply and demand for undocumented Mexican migrant labor in the U.S. agriculture sector. Reducing the additive tax on Mexican wages in the model effectively simulates an immigration policy shift. I estimate the net-of-tax long run labor supply and demand curves for U.S. agriculture, simulating an open-border policy with Mexico. Eliminating the additive tax on Mexican wages (which represents immigration policy reform) increases the quantity of labor used in U.S. agriculture, decreases U.S. agriculture wages for Mexican migrants, and raises Mexican agriculture wages. Since the labor supply curve for Mexican nationals is extremely elastic, the largest benefits of an immigration policy shift go to the U.S. producers, who can use higher labor inputs in production to lower the price of production. The results of the experiments are very similar, even with large differences in the visa pricing scheme chosen; this represents an exciting finding: the demand for access to the U.S. unskilled labor market for Mexican nationals is inelastic, which explains the fact that migrant smuggler costs have increased from approximately $50 in 1990 to upwards of $5,000 in the mid-2010s.

description: We present a simple derivation of the Hellmann-Feynman theorem at finite temperature. We illustrate its validity by considering three relevant examples which can be used in quantum mechanics lectures: the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator, the one-dimensional Ising model and the Lipkin model. We show that the Hellmann-Feynman theorem allows one to calculate expectation values of operators that appear in the Hamiltonian. This is particularly useful when the total free-energy is available, but there is not direct access to the thermal average of the operators themselves.

Risk and Uncertainty

description: Risk plays an important role in agricultural production decisions. When installation of new or intensification of existing conservation practices are under consideration, each farmer will have a unique, subjective view of the associated risks. The individualistic nature of risk perceptions could have important implications for conservation adoption or intensification. Thus, a more complete understanding of the factors influencing farmer risk perceptions is needed to increase the effectiveness of education, extension, outreach and programmatic efforts. The purpose of this study is to examine farmers’ risk perceptions regarding a bundle of in-field practices which could be used to intensify conservation efforts on farms in the Midwest. We present a conceptual model of perceived yield risk for four conservation practices: continuous no-till, conservation crop rotations, cover crops, and variable rate application of inputs. Bivariate probit models are estimated using survey response data from Kansas farmers.

description: Individual farm-level expected yields serve as the foundation for crop insurance design and rating. Therefore, constructing a reasonable, accurate, and robust model for the farm-level loss distribution is essential. Unfortunately, farm-level yield data is often insufficient or unavailable in many regions to conduct sound statistical inference, especially in developing countries. This paper develops a new two-step relational model to predict farm-level crop yield distributions in the absence of farm yield losses, through "borrowing" information from a neighbouring country, where detailed farm-level yield experience is available. The first step of the relational model defines a similarity measure based on a Euclidean metric to select an optimal county, considering weather information, average farm size, county size and county-level yield volatility. The second step links the selected county with the county to be predicted through modeling the dependence structures between the farm-level and county-level yield losses. Detailed farm-level and county-level corn yield data in the U.S. and Canada are used to empirically examine the performance of the proposed relational model. The results show that the approach developed in this paper may be useful in improving yield forecasts and pricing in the case where farm-level data is limited or not available. Further, this approach may also help to address the issue of aggregation bias, when county-level data is used as a substitute for farm-level data, which tend to result in underestimating the predicted risk relative to the true risk.
