description: We found that models of evolving random networks exhibit dynamic scaling similar to scaling of growing surfaces. It is demonstrated by numerical simulations of two variants of the model in which nodes are added as well as removed [Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 5587 (1999)]. The averaged size and connectivity of the network increase as power-laws in early times but later saturate. Saturated values and times of saturation change with paramaters controlling the local evolution of the network topology. Both saturated values and times of saturation obey also power-law dependences on controlling parameters. Scaling exponents are calculated and universal features are discussed.

description: The world’s population is estimated to peak at around nine billion in 2050, with almost half of the increase from 2009 (three billion) occurring in Asia. This will require a doubling of food production on a declining land area and natural resource base and in the context of increasing climate variability. At the same time, however, increasing urbanisation and the globalisation of food production are creating new opportunities for smallholder farmers in Asia to make a transition from subsistence agriculture to more-specialised production systems linked to commercial food production systems. Driving this transition will require increased investment in more-efficient and robust agricultural production technologies and a greater focus on enabling supply chain opportunities for small-scale farmers. In most countries in the region, government extension services have been unable to engage effectively with commercial supply chains. In several cases, the commercial sector is signaling demand for commodities from supply chains based on networks of small-scale producers. Using examples from the region, this paper highlights key issues that enhance smallholder competitiveness in these supply chains.

description: Recent results on open beauty production in positron-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 300 GeV are presented. The beauty photoproduction cross section is measured by ZEUS and H1 via the semileptonic decay. Both experiments use the transverse lepton momentum with respect to a jet as an observable. The H1 central silicon vertex detector makes it possible to analyse, in addition, the lepton impact parameter spectrum, thus exploiting lifetime information for the first time at HERA. The combined lifetime and transverse momentum signature is further used to observe beauty production for the first time in deep inelastic scattering. All results are compared with NLO QCD calculations.

description: The regimes of possible global atmospheric circulation patterns in an Earth-like atmosphere are explored using a simplified GCM based on the University of Hamburg's Portable University Model for the Atmosphere with simplified (linear) boundary layer friction, a Newtonian cooling scheme and dry convective adjustment. A series of controlled experiments are conducted by varying planetary rotation rate and imposed equator-to-pole temperature difference. These defining parameters are cast into dimensionless forms to establish a parameter space, in which different circulation regimes are mapped and classified. Clear trends are found when varying planetary rotation rate and frictional and thermal relaxation timescales. The sequence of circulation regimes as a function of planetary rotation rate strongly resembles that obtained in laboratory experiments on rotating, stratified flows, especially if a topographic $β$-effect is included in those experiments to emulate the planetary vorticity gradients induced by the spherical curvature of the planet. A regular baroclinic wave regime is also obtained at intermediate values of thermal Rossby number and its characteristics and dominant zonal wavenumber depend strongly on the strength of radiative and frictional damping. These regular waves exhibit some strong similarities to baroclinic storms observed on Mars under some conditions. Multiple jets are found at the highest rotation rates, when the Rossby deformation radius and other eddy-related length scales are much smaller than the radius of the planet. These exhibit some similarity to the multiple zonal jets observed on gas giant planets. Jets form on a scale comparable to the most energetic eddies and the Rhines scale poleward of the supercritical latitude. The balance of heat transport varies strongly with Ω* between eddies and zonally symmetric flows, becoming weak with fast rotation.

description: To meet the demanding of spectral reconstruction in the visible and near-infrared wavelength, the spectral reconstruction method for typical surface types is discussed based on the USGS /ASTER spectral library and principal component analysis (PCA). A new spectral reconstructed model is proposed by the information of several typical bands instead of all of the wavelength bands, and a linear combination spectral reconstruction model is also discussed. By selecting 4 typical spectral datasets including green vegetation, bare soil, rangeland and concrete in the spectral range of 400-900 nm, the PCA results show that 6 principal components could characterized the spectral dataset, and the relative reconstructed errors are smaller than 2%. If only 6-7 selected typical bands are employed to spectral reconstruction for all the surface reflectance in 400-900 nm, except that the reconstructed error of green vegetation is about 3.3%, the relative errors of other 3 datasets are all smaller than 1.6%. The correlation coefficients of those 4 datasets are all larger than 0.99, which can effectively satisfy the needs of spectral reconstruction. In addition, based on the spectral library and the linear combination model of 4 common used bands of satellite remote sensing such as 490, 555, 670 and 865 nm, the reconstructed errors are smaller than 8.5% in high reflectance region and smaller than 1.5% in low reflectance region respectively, which basically meet the needs of spectral reconstruction. This study can provide a reference value for the surface reflectance processing and spectral reconstruction in satellite remote sensing research.

description: The first step in any recycling value chain for Si based PV modules is the delamination process to detach the glass from solar cell. This process can be done mechanically, by thermal or chemical treatments. In this work detailed analysis of a combustion based delamination of Si glass/glass modules provided by industrial partners has been performed. Conventional pyrolysis oven at temperature around 600 °C has been used to burn EVA (ethyl vinyl acetate) and to extract glass and Si based solar cells without any traces of contaminations from the combustion process, which can be realized at normal air conditions. It is established that crushing of PV modules into small pieces is desirable to regulate combustion process which generates intensive flame and extra energy. It is found that the holding time for the combustion process, which can provide full removal of EVA, can be as low as about 5-10 minutes at appropriate temperatures around 600 °C. It is concluded that the proposed approach can be realized in a conveyor furnace, which can operate in air. Experimental results reported in this work can be used to design an automated process for the delamination of Si based glass/glass panels. It is established that the proposed approach provides recovery of more than 90% of the total weight of glass/glass Si based modules. Purity analysis of extracted during delamination process materials have been provided in the poster. The poster was presented at the 37th EU PVSEC in 2020.

description: The United Nations World Food Program feeds on average about 90 million people per year, twothirds of them children. It has offices in 80 countries. Despite the scale of this effort and the large quantities of food involved, forward planning is very challenging because of the small financial reserves on hand at any time. Natural disasters and conflict generate unpredictable demand for food. The WFP is evolving successful strategies to address not only immediate needs but underlying causes of food crises; partnerships have a significant and essential role in this success.

description: This deposit contains the the patient and physician interview guides used in the manuscript: Complexity in Shared Decision Making: A Qualitative Analysis of Clinical Encounters and Patient/Physician Interviews. It also contains a completed SRQR checklist. Abstract: Introduction: Shared decision making is a complex clinical activity, for which the most effective educational interventions are unclear. Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) can be utilized as a framework to help medical educators understand and teach shared decision making. The objective of this qualitative study was to utilize CHAT to explore, through analysis of clinical encounters and interviews, patient and provider perspectives of a medical decision-making process. Methods: Female patients from age 17 to 45, who sought care at a contraceptive clinic between April and June 2019, and physicians providing care in the clinic, were recruited for this study. Patients utilized a decision aid mobile application (app) prior to the visit. The clinical encounter and semi-structured interviews with each patient and physician were recorded. Template analysis was used to analyze the transcripts with themes including elements of activity systems within CHAT, tensions within and between activity systems, and agency. Results: In total, 21 patients and 8 providers participated in the study. Evidence of CHAT elements were identified for each patient-physician dyad. In analyzing occurrences of codes across transcripts, recurring contradictions and themes emerged, such as how the app is utilized as a mediating tool and the importance of patient and physician communities. Conclusions: Through analysis of clinical encounters and focused interviews, patient and provider perspectives provided a unique understanding of the complex process of decision-making. These findings can assist educators in developing more effective teaching strategies that may lead to enhanced patient agency, effective relational agency, and successful shared decision making.

description: Accurately predicting conversions in advertisements is generally a challenging task, because such conversions do not occur frequently. In this paper, we propose a new framework to support creating high-performing ad creatives, including the accurate prediction of ad creative text conversions before delivering to the consumer. The proposed framework includes three key ideas: multi-task learning, conditional attention, and attention highlighting. Multi-task learning is an idea for improving the prediction accuracy of conversion, which predicts clicks and conversions simultaneously, to solve the difficulty of data imbalance. Furthermore, conditional attention focuses attention of each ad creative with the consideration of its genre and target gender, thus improving conversion prediction accuracy. Attention highlighting visualizes important words and/or phrases based on conditional attention. We evaluated the proposed framework with actual delivery history data (14,000 creatives displayed more than a certain number of times from Gunosy Inc.), and confirmed that these ideas improve the prediction performance of conversions, and visualize noteworthy words according to the creatives' attributes.

Applications to quasi two-dimensional materials are discussed.

description: This paper evaluates the effect on market shares and consumer surplus of the introduction of a Good Agricultural Practices (GAP)-labeled product in the frozen fried potatoes (FFP) industry. We first estimate a model of household demand in Mar del Plata, Argentina, using scanner data and demographic information. We find that higher income individuals are more concerned about health and nutrition, and that younger and lower-income consumers are more price-sensitive. Then we postulate that a properly GAP-labeled FFP is available in the market, and we assess its effect by using the estimated utility function and prior information about consumers’ declared willingness to pay (WTP) for sustainably produced potatoes. We find that the older the individual, the greater the influence of the hypothetical introduction of the GAP-labeled product; the relationship is less conclusive in the case of income. Finally, we predict the results of a greater consumer surplus extraction by fixing a higher price for the new product, and we calculate the maximum increase in the marginal cost that the firm would be able to afford if farmers charge higher prices for GAP fresh potatoes.

description: When evaluating the impact of a program, the effects of interventions on program outcomes must be measured against a valid counterfactual case. Constructing a valid counterfactual is especially important when experimental data is not available. Building a baseline ensuring that treatment and comparison groups are similar as well as identifying potential sources of bias are essential first steps towards constructing a valid counterfactual. This paper assesses the comparability of groups of participants and non-participants for conducting an impact evaluation of the Agriculture for Basic Needs (A4N) program in Nicaragua. We examine the degree of similarity between A4N participant and non-participant comparison households using propensity scores (estimated probability of program placement). Propensity scores are matched for the two groups, comparing results from using caliper matching and nearest neighbor matching without and with replacement. The analysis uses the pretreatment characteristics of households belonging to the treatment (participant) and comparison (non-participant) groups in order to verify whether the comparison group is statistically similar to the treatment group.

description: By designing tailor-made resonance modes with structured atoms, metamaterials allow us to obtain constitutive parameters outside their limited range from natural or composite materials. Nonetheless, tuning the constitutive parameters relies much on our capability in modifying the physical structures or media in constructing the metamaterial atoms, posing a fundamental challenge to the range of tunability in many real-time applications. Here, we propose a completely new notion of virtualized metamaterials to lift the traditional boundary inherent to the physical structure of a metamaterial atom. By replacing the resonating physical structure with a designer mathematical convolution kernel with a fast digital signal processing circuit, we show that a decoupled control of the effective bulk modulus and density of the metamaterial is possible on-demand through a software-defined frequency dispersion. Purely noninterfering to the incident wave in the off-mode operation while providing freely reconfigurable amplitude, center frequency, bandwidth, and phase delay of frequency dispersion in on-mode, our approach adds an additional dimension to wave molding and can work as an essential building block for time-varying metamaterials.

Quarks with three values of lattice masses, 210, 124 and 80 MeV, are formulated on the lattice using the standard Wilson approach. At every mass, 100 gluon configurations on 16^3 x 32 lattice with β=6.0 are used for statistical averaging. The results are compared with the previous calculations with momentum extrapolation. The contribution of the disconnected diagrams is studied at the largest quark mass using noise theory technique.

description: Diyari is an Australian language spoken by approximately twenty five people living at various places in the north east of South Australia. It consists of two dialects, Dhirari with one remaining speaker, and Diyari proper, The future of the language is not bright as children are no longer learning to speak it and the youngest fluent speaker is aged about fifty. The language seems to be most closely related to Ngamini and Yarluyandi once spoken to the north of the pre-contact location of the Diyari along Cooper’s Creek. This thesis is a description of the phonology, morphology and syntax of Diyari, with an emphasis on exemplification of points being explained. Where possible, examples are drawn from texts, especially the two texts included as Appendices. Throughout the description of the morphology and syntax comparative data from other Australian languages, in particular those languages once spoken near Diyari, are included as single spaced comments. Some areas of the grammar are dealt with in greater detail than others, including: a) the status of the phonemic voicing contrast in the apical stops, b) the classification of main verbs, c) the auxiliary verbs, d) the functions of the cases, and e) subordination and the switch-reference systems. Some points of wider theoretical interest arc raised in these sections. There are three Appendices consisting of two texts, a discussion of Diyari songs and notes on loan words.

description: The Dicke state $|D_k^n\rangle$ is an equal-weight superposition of all $n$-qubit states with Hamming Weight $k$ (i.e. all strings of length $n$ with exactly $k$ ones over a binary alphabet). Dicke states are an important class of entangled quantum states that among other things serve as starting states for combinatorial optimization quantum algorithms. We present a deterministic quantum algorithm for the preparation of Dicke states. Implemented as a quantum circuit, our scheme uses $O(kn)$ gates, has depth $O(n)$ and needs no ancilla qubits. The inductive nature of our approach allows for linear-depth preparation of arbitrary symmetric pure states and -- used in reverse -- yields a quasilinear-depth circuit for efficient compression of quantum information in the form of symmetric pure states, improving on existing work requiring quadratic depth. All of these properties even hold for Linear Nearest Neighbor architectures.

description: Despite the merits of eco-labeling as a consumer information and market-based environmental policy alternative, the promise that green consumerism holds in encouraging environmentally conscious production decisions also raises concerns over whether eco-labeling deters the market access of developing countries in high income countries, and e®ectively serves the role of a non-tari® barrier to trade. In this paper, we disentangle the role of eco-labeling in world trade, and show that (i) imperfectly informed consumption decision making in the absence of labeling has a pro-trade bias; (ii) eco-labeling can guide green consumption and production decisions to reach the e±ciency frontier, provided that (iii) the choice of eco-labeling standards in the two countries are not subject to coordination failure. Taking labeling standards as endogenously determined by market share rivalry between the two countries, we show that strategic use of eco-labeling gives rise to opposing incentives, and results in a \tari®-like" outcome that further reduces the volume of trade. Speci¯cally, net importers deviate from the e±ciency frontier by choosing labeling standards that are too high, while net exporters choose labeling standards that are too low.

description: A controversy involving loan loss provisions in banks concerns their relationship with the business cycle. While international accounting standards for recognizing provisions (incurred loss model) would presumably be pro-cyclical, accentuating the effects of the current economic cycle, an alternative model, the expected loss model, has countercyclical characteristics, acting as a buffer against economic imbalances caused by expansionary or contractionary phases in the economy. In Brazil, a mixed accounting model exists, whose behavior is not known to be pro-cyclical or countercyclical. The aim of this research is to analyze the behavior of these accounting models in relation to the business cycle, using an econometric model consisting of financial and macroeconomic variables. The study allowed us to identify the impact of credit risk behavior, earnings management, capital management, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) behavior, and the behavior of the unemployment rate on provisions in countries that use different accounting models. Data from commercial banks in the United Kingdom (incurred loss), in Spain (expected loss), and in Brazil (mixed model) were used, covering the period from 2001 to 2012. Despite the accounting models of the three countries being formed by very different rules regarding possible effects on the business cycles, the results revealed a pro-cyclical behavior of provisions in each country, indicating that when GDP grows, provisions tend to fall and vice versa. The results also revealed other factors influencing the behavior of loan loss provisions, such as earning management.

An economic analysis of the Wauna-Yarakita oil palm project using the Little and Mirrlees approach to project appraisal
Creators: name: Best, Patricia

Year: 1978
Subjects: subject: Oil palm Guyana
subject: Cost effectiveness Case studies

description: This study investigates the relative merits of the two most frequently used methods of agricultural project appraisal - the Conventional Efficiency Analysis as described by Gittinger and the Little and Mirrlees methods - in relation to the development of an oil palm project in Guyana and in the context of Guyana's relatively open economy. An evaluation of the two alternative techniques are given in light of results. Using the existing literature on project evaluation techniques, available methods are reviewed in an effort to justify the choice of the two methods. The Conventional Efficiency Analysis and the Little and Mirrlees methods are discussed in detail, the latter particularly, because of its relative complexity. The nature and history of oil palm production in Guyana is also discussed to indicate the possible contribution of the oil palm to the development of Guyana. The crop's world production, trade and its position in the world fats and oils economy are also considered in an appendix. In the investigation of the social profitability of the Wauna - Yarakita oil palm project using both methods the criterion used is the internal rate of return supplemented by the net present value and benefit - cost ratio in some cases. The rates of discount utilised in the calculation of the net present values are 8 and 10 percent. The study mainly utilised data contained in the report on Oil Palm Development in Guyana, South America 1976-1980 by Ndaeyo and Isang. The main conclusion of the study is that, in the context of Guyana, there was no difference in the decisions taken, as the rates of return obtained in both cases were quite high. The use of the Little and Mirrlees for marginal projects could, however, make the difference between acceptance and rejection. It could also be deduced that the contribution of the Little and Mirrlees method may only be substantial in a situation where border prices are thought to differ substantially from domestic [)rice levels. Where such a situation does not occur, one need not go all the way to Little and Mirrlees but rather modify the Conventional Efficiency Analysis procedures (e.g. SER, SWR) and yet obtain similar results. The project when the extraction of timber was included yielded an investment which although profitable had no real rate of return. Finally, the effects on the rates of return of cost over-run, increased oil palm yields, different levels of consumption in the unorganized sector and a higher shadow wage rate were also discussed.

description: A realistic nuclear mean-field hamiltonian with pairing has been diagonalized using Fock space representation that allows for nearly exact treatment of the problem. Calculations were performed for all the even-even nuclei with Z in (20, 100), whose pairing gaps were possible to extract out of the experimental masses. The optimal values of the pairing strength constants for the protons and neutrons have been found.

description: This paper goes beyond orthodox considerations of direct payment e®ects on agricultural output, by highlighting the role of subsidies in a®ecting individual producers' ability to cover ¯xed costs, and in distorting the volume of aggregate production and net trade by implicitly discouraging exits. The theoretical model considers both taxpayer and consumer ¯nanced decoupled direct payment schemes and compares them to a coupled production subsidy. In terms of possible producer responses to direct payments, we propose an analytical framework of production decision-making in the presence of a stochastic distribution of ¯xed costs across representative farms. We show that decoupled payments in theory can have a larger e®ect on output than coupled payments. The model explicitly recognizes three consequences of domestic support: (a) induce exit or entry; (b) bias production incentives to domestic markets; and (c) cross-subsidize export in global markets. An empirical model of the U.S. wheat sector is developed to illustrate the relative potential impacts of coupled versus decoupled payments on output through the e®ects on a farmer's ability to cover ¯xed costs and hence exit decisions.
Peripheral visual function in the fly

Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1978

description: Receptors and peripheral neurons of the dipteran visual system have been studied in the flies, Calliphora stygia (wild type), Musca domestica (white-eyed mutant) and Calliphora erythrocephala (chalky mutant), principally by means of intracellular recording. Recordings were made from: the large peripheral retinula cells, Rl-6; the small, central, retinula cells, R7 and R8; and the large monopolar cells (LMC' s), Ll, L2 and L4. Representatives of each cell type were identified by intracellular dye injection with Procion yellow. The angular sensitivity functions of the receptors are shown to be at, or near the limit set by lens diffraction and rhabdomere diameter. Receptors R7 and R8, whose rhabdomeres are narrower than those of Rl-6,also have narrower angular sensitivity functions. Many of the basic response properties of photoreceptors are described in detail for the first time. For R7 and R8, spectral sensitivities, polarisation sensitivities, absolute sensitivities, and dark and light-adapted intensityjresponse functions have been determined. In Rl-6 cells, lightadaptation shifts the peak of spectral sensitivity, and narrows the angular sensitivity function, but had no effect upon the polarisation sensitivity. These new results from identified receptors lead to a reappraisal of receptor involvement in optomotor behaviour. A new functional class of photoreceptor (Rl-6) is described in which the spectral and polarisation sensitivity are both dependent upon the intensity of the test flash-used to measure them. In addition, the polarisation sensitivity is strongly dependent upon the stimulus wavelength. The experimental analysis suggests that these anomalous properties derive from the events occurring in a single cell, and this finding may have important implications with respect to the process of transduction in photoreceptors. A detailed study is made of the processes of light-adaptation 2 in receptors Rl-6 and their postsynaptic elements, the LMC's. Consecutive stages of light-adaptation are isolated by comparing the performance of receptors and LMC's when subjected to identical regimes of dark- and light-adaptation over a 5 log unit range of intensities, and possible mechanisms of lightadaptation are considered. A comparison with the performance of higher order visual interneurons indicates that the majority of adaptation is completed at the level of the LMC. A comparison of the results with those of similar studies in other arthropods and, also the lower vertebrates reveals striking analogies, which, it is argued, represent an optimal strategy for light-adaptation. The receptors R7 and R8 are intensively investigated to elucidate their function in terms of the pigments in their rhabdome res. There are two spectral classes of R7 which appear to have completely different pigments in their rhabdomeres. The properties of RB are profoundly influenced by the absorption of light in the overlying rhabdomere of R7.
