Adapting stage drama for radio: techniques of preparing stage scripts for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation radio production
Creators: name: Wynston, Gail Patricia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Since 1944, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, through its radio network, has been the prime disseminator of drama to Canadians. CBC radio reaches virtually every inhabited region of the country, including remote areas where little or no professional stage drama is presented. Canadian playwrights have often adapted their stage plays for GBC radio production in order to reach the largest potential audience. This study examines the techniques which have been used by seven playwrights to adapt their stage plays for CBC radio. The plays examined are: The Abdication by Norman Newton; The Action Tonight by Tom Grainger; Captives of the Faceless Drummer, by George Ryga; Do You Remember One September Afternoon?, by David Watmough; The Great Hunger, by Leonard Peterson; Women in the Attic, by Leonard Peterson; Quiet Day in Belfast and its radio version "Murder in the Betting Shop," by Andrew Angus Dalrymple; and Yesterday the Children Were Dancing, by Gratien Gélinas, translated and adapted by Mavor Moore. The stage scripts and their radio versions were examined to ascertain the changes that had occurred in the adaptation process. The playwrights and several CBC producers were interviewed. Comparison between the stage and radio versions revealed differences in the order of speeches, and additions or deletions of verbal and non-verbal elements. Dialogue was cut or condensed to shorten the script for radio. Occasionally the order of events was rearranged for the adaptation to insure clarity after elements had been cut. Some visual elements of the stage play received verbal equivalents in the radio script, while others were translated through radio production techniques, such as sound effects. In addition, radio production techniques which had no stage equivalent were added in the adaptation process to help create a mood or emphasize a character. These alterations appear to have been made for two reasons: to compensate for the lack of the visual element on radio, and to shorten the script to conform to the CBC network's time restrictions. The author of this study concludes that the adaptation techniques used in the scripts under consideration are relatively rudimentary. For the most part, the playwrights did only what was necessary to make the stage play understandable to the radio listener and did not fully exploit the potential of the radio medium. The radio listener can be stimulated to imagine an unbounded stage and need not be restricted by an aural translation of a physical stage setting. The author suggests that further investigations might explore techniques which would help the adaptor to transform his play more imaginatively for radio.
Metastable Quantum Phase Transitions in a Periodic One-dimensional Bose Gas: Mean-Field and Bogoliubov Analyses

description: We generalize the concept of quantum phase transitions, which is conventionally defined for a ground state and usually applied in the thermodynamic limit, to one for \emph{metastable states} in \emph{finite size systems}. In particular, we treat the one-dimensional Bose gas on a ring in the presence of both interactions and rotation. To support our study, we bring to bear mean-field theory, i.e., the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, and linear perturbation or Bogoliubov-de Gennes theory. Both methods give a consistent result in the weakly interacting regime: there exist \emph{two topologically distinct quantum phases}. The first is the typical picture of superfluidity in a Bose-Einstein condensate on a ring: average angular momentum is quantized and the superflow is uniform. The second is new: one or more dark solitons appear as stationary states, breaking the symmetry, the average angular momentum becomes a continuous quantity, and the phase of the condensate can be continuously wound and unwound.
title: Differences in Strike Index Between Treadmill and Aquatic Treadmill Running in Experienced Distance Runners
Creators: name: Hoover, James Paul
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: Strike index (SI) quantifies how one’s foot contacts the ground at the beginning of the stance phase of gait. SI is reported as a percentage of the total foot length, with lower percentages indicating a more posterior point of contact, while greater percentages indicate a more anterior point of contact along the foot. Differences in SI may be related to running-related injuries, such that experienced distance runners who are rearfoot (posterior) strikers may have approximately twice the rate of repetitive stress injuries than forefoot (anterior) strikers. Previous research has shown that forefoot strikers, as opposed to rearfoot strikers, produce lower ground reaction forces. More specifically, forefoot strikers exhibit lower impact peak ground reaction forces and reduced vertical ground reaction force loading rates. Forefoot strikers also exhibit lower stress at the patellofemoral joint but greater Achilles tendon loading. The greater Achilles tendon loading may be attributed to a more plantar flexed position at foot strike, and may be of concern for a possible increase in injury risk. The lower ground reaction forces, lower loading rates, and lower patellofemoral joint stress associated with forefoot strike patterns may be beneficial in relation to running-related injuries, while greater Achilles tendon loading may not be

description: Many distributed systems can be modeled as network games: a collection of selfish players that communicate in order to maximize their individual utilities. The performance of such games can be evaluated through the costs of the system equilibria: the system states in which no player can increase her utility by unilaterally changing her behavior. However, assuming that all players are selfish and in particular that all players have the same utility function may not always be appropriate. Hence, several extensions to incorporate also altruistic and malicious behavior in addition to selfishness have been proposed over the last years. In this paper, we seek to go one step further and study arbitrary relationships between participants. In particular, we introduce the notion of the social range matrix and explore the effects of the social range matrix on the equilibria in a network game. In order to derive concrete results, we propose a simplistic network creation game that captures the effect of social relationships among players.

description: In this paper we study cluster algebras $\myAA$ of type $A_2^{(1)}$. We solve the recurrence relations among the cluster variables (which form a T--system of type $A_2^{(1)}$). We solve the recurrence relations among the coefficients of $\myAA$ (which form a Y--system of type $A_2^{(1)}$). In $\myAA$ there is a natural notion of positivity. We find linear bases $\BB$ of $\myAA$ such that positive linear combinations of elements of $\BB$ coincide with the cone of positive elements. We call these bases \emph{atomic bases} of $\myAA$. These are the analogue of the "canonical bases" found by Sherman and Zelevinsky in type $A_{1}^{(1)}$. Every atomic basis consists of cluster monomials together with extra elements. We provide explicit expressions for the elements of such bases in every cluster. We prove that the elements of $\BB$ are parameterized by $\ZZ^3$ via their $\mathbf{g}$--vectors in every cluster. We prove that the denominator vector map in every acyclic seed of $\myAA$ restricts to a bijection between $\BB$ and $\ZZ^3$. In particular this gives an explicit algorithm to determine the "virtual" canonical decomposition of every element of the root lattice of type $A_2^{(1)}$. We find explicit recurrence relations to express every element of $\myAA$ as linear combinations of elements of $\BB$.

description: On May 21, 2011, precisely when the president of Chile Sebastían Piñera was ready to address the Chilean parliament regarding legislative initiatives for the upcoming year, more than 20,000 students gathered outside the parliamentary building calling on the government to address problems within the education system. Diego Vela, president of FEUC, a prominent student organization, stated the following: “Since it is a year with presidential and parliamentary elections, it opens up the opportunity to influence the main platforms and look for structural changes” (I Love Chile). President Piñera’s speech, however, ignored student demands, and consequently students intensified their campaign by announcing new rallies and threatening an indefinite strike if government did not meet their demands. Students began overtaking schools and universities. Books were burned and school desks were used to barricade school entrances (Guzman-Concha 2013, 413-414).

description: In the present study we address the kinetics of long-lived excitations at zero temperature in an electronic quantum Hall system with filling factor $ν=2$. The initial coherent state of spin-cyclotron magnetoexitons with two-dimensional wave vector ${\bf q}=0$ resulting from laser pumping is stochastized over time due to emission of acoustic phonons. The elementary emission process requires participation of two magnetoexitons, so the effective rate of phonon emission is proportional to the excitation density squared, and the stochastization process occurs nonexponentially with time. The final distribution of magnetoexitons over 2D momenta, established as a result of stochastization, is compared with equilibrium distribution at finite temperature.

title: Economic Growth and Education Reform in Developing Countries
Creators: name: Ramirez, Merlym M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: Developing countries have devoted to the implementation of education policies to improve the quality of education. The concern has originated from the fact that quality education produces the tools necessary to produce social mobility, reducing the inequality within a country and in turn increasing the economic growth. The attention on education quality has aroused conflicting opinions about whether to focus the educational policies in the lowest or in the highest achievers. Most policies focus on providing quality, basic education for all children, youth and adults arguing that basic education directly impacts all aspects of human development. On the other hand, some analysts suggest that the highest achievers deserve the same attention and concern.
This study applies a cross-country growth regression analysis to identify the relationship between the existence of lowest achievers and/or highest achievers, and economic growth in non-OECD countries. 5 percentage points increase in the share of basic performers in non-OECD countries is associated with 0.14 percentage points higher annual growth. While a 0.5 percentage points increase in the share of top performers in non-OECD countries is associated with 0.099 percentage points higher annual growth. Also, results suggest that non-OECD countries should focus on basic performers, given that their contribution to economic growth and the higher economic value of a reform focus on that group of 9.55 thousand dollars per person compared to a focus on top performers where the economic value is 6.59 thousand dollars per person.

description: By combining optical spin injection techniques with transport spectroscopy tools, we demonstrate a spin-photodetector allowing for the electrical measurement and active filtering of conduction band electron spin at room temperature in a non-magnetic GaAsN semiconductor structure. By switching the polarization of the incident light from linear to circular, we observe a Giant Spin-dependent Photoconductivity (GSP) reaching up to 40 % without the need of an external magnetic field. We show that the GSP is due to a very efficient spin filtering effect of conduction band electrons on Nitrogen-induced Ga self-interstitial deep paramagnetic centers.

There is also a solution resembling parallel hexagonal walls, but this is less stable.

description: Presentation Abstract

The Visualization, Exploration, and Data Analysis (VEDA) platform is a NASA project that opens up access to scientific datasets and data stories through collaboration with scientists and organizations. One main goal of VEDA is to provide a platform for users to interact with cloud-optimized, cloud-native data to lower the barrier to entry for this new data access paradigm. Conversion from legacy data formats to cloud-optimized formats to support platforms promoting interoperability, like VEDA, can challenge existing data validation workflows. Manual techniques for validating data quality and standard-compliant metadata can be tedious and error prone and thus, automated workflows are preferred.

This presentation will provide an overview of automated techniques for validating data converted from legacy formats to cloud-optimized formats and metadata compliant with spatiotemporal asset catalog (STAC) specifications. We also discuss use of open-source tools such as pyQuARC and Great Expectations leveraged to demonstrate an end-to-end automated process for validating cloud-optimized data for use by cloud-based platforms. With automated data and metadata validation, we can achieve data standardization and support interoperability between cloud-based platforms like VEDA.
Instability of Majorana states in Shiba chains due to leakage into a topological substrate

description: We revisit the problem of Majorana states in chains of scalar impurities deposited on a superconductor with a mixed s-wave and p-wave pairing. We also study the formation of Majorana states for magnetic impurity chains. We find that the magnetic impurity chains exhibit well-localized Majorana states when the substrate is trivial, but these states hybridize and get dissolved in the bulk when the substrate is topological. Most surprisingly, and contrary to previous predictions, the scalar impurity chain does not support fully localized Majorana states except for very small and finely tuned parameter regimes, mostly for a non-topological substrate close to the topological transition. Our results indicate that a purely p-wave or a dominant p-wave substrate are not good candidates to support either magnetic or scalar impurity topological Shiba chains.

In a diquark picture, the quantum numbers $J^P$ of confirmed baryons are well assigned. We give energy predictions for the first and second orbital excitations. We see some correspondences with the experimental data. Meanwhile, we have obtained diquark masses in the background of charm quark which satisfy a splitting relation based on spin-spin interaction.

title: MVGST: Tools For Multivariate and Directional Gene Set Testing
Creators: name: Mecham, Dennis S.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: There are many platforms available for simultaneously measuring the relative activity, or expression, levels of all genes in an organism. Genes that have systematically dier- ent expression levels between experimental factor levels are called \dierentially expressed". Because genes are annotated based on their known roles in biological processes (BP), molec- ular functions (MF) and cellular components (CC), gene expression levels can be used to determine relative activity levels of individual BP, MF, or CC between experimental fac- tor levels (this is called gene set testing). Often multiple experimental dierences are of interest simultaneously, which necessitates multivariate gene set testing. Only genes that contribute to a BP, MF, or CC are annotated to that gene set, and it is necessary to have a consensus of genes contributing for a BP, MF, or CC to function properly. Because of this, the direction of the dierential expression (up of down regulated) matters. mvGST, which is platform and design independent, includes tools to summarize and visualize results from multivariate and directional gene set tests. This exibility will be demonstrated on two examples. The rst example comes from a study evaluating the eect of dierent types of fertilization on pig embryos at dierent stages in the embryos' development. The second example comes from a publicly available gene expression data set from a study evaluating the eect of dierent chemotherapy dosages on dierent leukemia blood cell lines. There are plans to make mvGST available publicly through CRAN (Comprehensive R Archive Network) or Bioconductor [1].

description: The supporting slats of laser flatbed machines cause process reliability problems, such as tilted parts colliding with the cutting head. In order to mitigate these problems the position of the supporting points for a part to be cut must be known, before the machines numerical control program can be changed accordingly. Being able to detect the position of supporting slats accurately is necessary to do that. This work compares image processing methods to localize the supporting slats in single images. The best features are based on filters in the frequency domain and can have accuracies above 96 %.
Revised Stellar Parameters for V471 Tau, A Post-common Envelope Binary in the Hyades

description: V471 Tau is a post-common-envelope binary consisting of an eclipsing DA white dwarf and a K-type main-sequence star in the Hyades star cluster. We analyzed publicly available photometry and spectroscopy of V471 Tau to revise the stellar and orbital parameters of the system. We used archival K2 photometry, archival Hubble Space Telescope spectroscopy, and published radial-velocity measurements of the K-type star. Employing Gaussian processes to fit for rotational modulation of the system flux by the main-sequence star, we recovered the transits of the white dwarf in front of the main-sequence star for the first time. The transits are shallower than would be expected from purely geometric occultations owing to gravitational microlensing during transit, which places an additional constraint on the white-dwarf mass. Our revised mass and radius for the main-sequence star is consistent with single-star evolutionary models given the age and metallicity of the Hyades. However, as noted previously in the literature, the white dwarf is too massive and too hot to be the result of single-star evolution given the age of the Hyades, and may be the product of a merger scenario. We independently estimate the conditions of the system at the time of common envelope that would result in the measured orbital parameters today.

title: Using the Home Visit Rating Scale HOVRS - A+ to Compare Tele-Intervention and In-Person Intervention in Children with Hearing Loss
Creators: name: Weller, Katie Ann
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: Early parent-child interactions are a critical part of typical speech and language development. These interactions can be negatively affected if the child is diagnosed with a hearing loss. Therefore, a primary goal of early intervention services, especially if the family has a child with hearing loss, is to support parent-child communication development. However, access to an early interventionist with specialized experience with children who are deaf/hard-of-hearing (DHH) may not always be an option due to increase demand for services or the location of the family. Recently, there has been growing support from professional organizations for the use of tele-intervention (TI) as a method of delivering services to families that do not have access to a specialized provider on a regular basis. The purpose of this paper is to determine the viability of TI on parent-child interactions compared to in-person intervention. Eight videos were independently scored using the Home Visit Rating Scale – Adapted and Extended (HOVRS-A+) (Roggman, et al., 2010). Home visits through TI were rated higher on 6 of the 7 HOVRS-A+ scales, with an average of 0.6 of 7 points higher in favor of the TI group. The difference between the TI and comparison groups on the Parent Engagement during Home Visit scale was statistically significant (p < .05). Results indicate that TI shows promise in supporting coaching and parent-child interaction. Therefore, replication with a larger sample size is warranted.

description: We investigate the interplay between the thermodynamic properties and spin-dependent transport in a mesoscopic device based on a magnetic multilayer (F/f/F), in which two strongly ferromagnetic layers (F) are exchange-coupled through a weakly ferromagnetic spacer (f) with the Curie temperature in the vicinity of room temperature. We show theoretically that the Joule heating produced by the spin-dependent current allows a spin-thermo-electronic control of the ferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic (f/N) transition in the spacer and, thereby, of the relative orientation of the outer F-layers in the device (spin-thermo-electric manipulation of nanomagnets). Supporting experimental evidence of such thermally controlled switching from parallel to antiparallel magnetization orientations in F/f(N)/F sandwiches is presented. Furthermore, we show theoretically that local Joule heating due to a high concentration of current in a magnetic point contact or a nanopillar can be used to reversibly drive the weakly ferromagnetic spacer through its Curie point and thereby exchange couple and decouple the two strongly ferromagnetic F-layers. For the devices designed to have an antiparallel ground state above the Curie point of the spacer, the associated spin-thermionic parallel-to-antiparallel switching causes magneto-resistance oscillations whose frequency can be controlled by proper biasing from essentially DC to GHz. We discuss in detail an experimental realization of a device that can operate as a thermo-magneto-resistive switch or oscillator.

title: Utilizing Literacy Kits During Home Based Intervention to Foster Development of Familiar Language
Creators: name: Beckert, Tara
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2014

description: Children who are deaf or hard of hearing tend to be delayed in the development of spoken language. The ability to communicate effectively is an important skill children need to succeed throughout their educational experiences. Many of the language concepts children learn are acquired through incidental exposure, such as overhearing. Children with hearing loss often miss language concepts learned through incidental exposure due to poor listening conditions. Early intervention has been shown to be effective in helping children who are deaf or hard of hearing acquire spoken language, especially when there is parental involvement in early intervention. Likewise, early literacy skills are linked to language development. Utilizing literature as a means of expanding and building upon current language development practices may provide additional opportunities for parent-child interaction that will aid children in their future educational environments.

In this neglected spot : the rural cemetery landscape in Southern British Columbia
Creators: name: Philpot, Mary Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The cemetery is a feature of the human landscape. It has been described as a memorial to the living as well as to the dead because it reflects the various sustaining mechanisms of the society which creates it. Wealth, prestige, kinship, ethnic and religious barriers are all represented to a degree in the cemetery. This study focuses on the rural cemetery landscape of southern British Columbia in the social and economic context of the 19th century. The cemetery is first described in subjective terms as a series of vignettes. The aesthetic qualities of the cemetery are stressed and the emotions they evoke are considered. A more rigorous examina tion of the rural graveyard landscape in southern British Columbia follows Chapter 1, where the results of field work are presented. The scene is set for an interpretation of that landscape in Chapter 3, including a discussion of English and American antecedents in cemetery planning and ‘death’s celebration’ in the 19th century. Chapter 4 considers the rural cemetery landscape of southern British Columbia as a reflection of 19th century society in that province.

description: We analyze gene co-expression network under the random matrix theory framework. The nearest neighbor spacing distribution of the adjacency matrix of this network follows Gaussian orthogonal statistics of random matrix theory (RMT). Spectral rigidity test follows random matrix prediction for a certain range, and deviates after wards. Eigenvector analysis of the network using inverse participation ratio (IPR) suggests that the statistics of bulk of the eigenvalues of network is consistent with those of the real symmetric random matrix, whereas few eigenvalues are localized. Based on these IPR calculations, we can divide eigenvalues in three sets; (A) The non-degenerate part that follows RMT. (B) The non-degenerate part, at both ends and at intermediate eigenvalues, which deviate from RMT and expected to contain information about {\it important nodes} in the network. (C) The degenerate part with $zero$ eigenvalue, which fluctuates around RMT predicted value. We identify nodes corresponding to the dominant modes of the corresponding eigenvectors and analyze their structural properties.

description: We propose and apply the finite-element discrete variable representation to express the nonequilibrium Green's function for strongly inhomogeneous quantum systems. This method is highly favorable against a general basis approach with regard to numerical complexity, memory resources, and computation time. Its flexibility also allows for an accurate representation of spatially extended hamiltonians, and thus opens the way towards a direct solution of the two-time Schwinger/Keldysh/Kadanoff-Baym equations on spatial grids, including e.g. the description of highly excited states in atoms. As first benchmarks, we compute and characterize, in Hartree-Fock and second Born approximation, the ground states of the He atom, the H$_2$ molecule and the LiH molecule in one spatial dimension. Thereby, the ground-state/binding energies, densities and bond-lengths are compared with the direct solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation.

description: Предложен новый, математически корректный, метод электродинамического анализа бесконечных антенных решеток. В основе метода лежит изучение свойств функции Грина бесконечной периодичной решетки. На первом этапе двумерное интегральное уравнение сведено к одномерному интегральному уравнению. Затем путем выделения главной части, непрерывно обратимого оператора, выявлена структура уравнения. Впервые показано, что главный оператор такой же, как и в задаче электродинамического анализа одиночного излучателя. Предложен численно-аналитический метод расчета фазированных антенных решеток.

description: By analyzing the data sets of 17.3, 6.5 and 1.0 pb$^{-1}$ taken, respectively, at $\sqrt s= 3.773$, 3.650 and 3.6648 GeV with the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider, we measure the observed cross sections for $e^+e^-\to π^+π^-π^0π^0$, $K^+K^-π^0π^0$, $2(π^+π^-π^0)$, $K^+K^-π^+π^-π^0π^0$ and $3(π^+π^-)π^0π^0$ at the three energy points. Based on these cross sections we set the upper limits on the observed cross sections and the branching fractions for $ψ(3770)$ decay into these final states at 90% C.L..

description: A kinetic equation approach is applied to model anomalous J/psi suppression at RHIC and SPS by absorption in a hadron resonance gas which successfully describes statistical hadron production in both experiments. The puzzling rapidity dependence of the PHENIX data is reproduced as a geometric effect due to a longer absorption path for J/psi production at forward rapidity.

The dynamical structure of the outflows driven by a large-scale magnetic field

description: Large-scale magnetic field is crucial in launching and collimating the jets/outflows. It is found that the magnetic flux can be efficiently transported inward by the fast moving corona above a thin disk. In this work we investigate the dynamical structure of the outflows driven by the large-scale magnetic field advected by the hot corona. With derived large-scale magnetic field, the outflow solution along every field line is obtained by solving a set of magneto-hydrodynamical (MHD) Equations self-consistently with boundary conditions at the upper surface of the corona. We find that the terminal speeds of the outflows driven from the inner region of the disk are $\sim 0.01c-0.1c$. The temperatures of the outflows at the large distance from the black hole are still as high as several ten keV. The properties of the magnetic outflows derived in this work are roughly consistent with the fast outflows detected in some luminous quasars and X-ray binaries. The total mass loss rate in the outflows from the corona is about $7\%-12\%$ of the mass accretion rate of the disk. The three dimension field geometry, the velocity, temperature and density of the outflows derived in this work can be used for calculating the emergent spectra and their polarization of the accretion disk/corona/outflow systems. Our results may help understand the features of the observed spectra of X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei.

Systematic Effects in Pulse Shape Analysis of HPGe Detector Signals for Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay

description: Pulse shape analysis is an important background reduction and signal identification technique for next generation of neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments examining 76Ge. We present a study of the systematic uncertainties in one such parametric pulse-shape analysis technique for separating multi-site backgrounds from single-site signal events. We examined systematic uncertainties for events in full-energy gamma peaks (predominantly multi-site), double escape peaks (predominantly single-site) and the Compton continuum near double-beta decay endpoint (which will be the dominant background for most neutrinoless double-beta decay searches). In short, we find total (statistical plus systematic) fractional uncertainties in the pulse shape cut survival probabilities of: 6.6%, 1.5% and 3.8% for double-escape, continuum and gamma-ray events respectively.

Effect of target on actor and observer causal attributions
Creators: name: Rank, Darylynn Starr
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This study was designed to investigate actor-observer differences in causal attribution to either situational or dispositional factors. A critical review of the literature suggests that stable directional differences may not exist. It was hypothesized that the informational needs of the audience hearing the attribution would be a major determinant of the nature of actor-observer differences. Specifically, as predicted, differences between self and other attributions disappeared when the audience was a stranger. The implications of these results were discussed with reference to the actor-observer attributional literature and theory as well as to attribution research in general.

description: In radio astronomy, radio frequency interference (RFI) becomes more and more serious for radio observational facilities. The RFI always influences the search and study of the interesting astronomical objects. Mitigating the RFI becomes an essential procedure in any survey data processing. Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) is an extremely sensitive radio telescope. It is necessary to find out an effective and precise RFI mitigation method for FAST data processing. In this work, we introduce a method to mitigate the RFI in FAST spectral observation and make a statistics for the RFI using around 300 hours FAST data. The details are as follows. Firstly, according to the characteristics of FAST spectra, we propose to use the ArPLS algorithm for baseline fitting. Our test results show that it has a good performance. Secondly, we flag the RFI with four strategies, which are to flag extremely strong RFI, flag long-lasting RFI, flag polarized RFI, and flag beam-combined RFI, respectively. The test results show that all the RFI above a preset threshold could be flagged. Thirdly, we make a statistics for the probabilities of polarized XX and YY RFI in FAST observations. The statistical results could tell us which frequencies are relatively quiescent. With such statistical data, we are able to avoid using such frequencies in our spectral observations. Finally, based on the around 300 hours FAST data, we got an RFI table, which is the most complete database currently for FAST.
