A special purpose computer to simulate a visual receptor network for pattern recognition studies
Creators: name: Connor, Denis John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A set of equations is introduced which describes the inhibitory interaction between the receptors in the eye of the horse-shoe crab, Limulus. The terms primary inhibition field, and inhibition field are defined, and the results of a digital computer study of their interdependence with respect to size and to the type of k[subscript i,j] and t[subscript i,j] functions employed are given. It is concluded that a large receptor array can be simulated by solving the set of equations for the output of the central receptor in much smaller sub-arrays. If the sub-arrays are chosen so as to cover the large array, then the resulting set of central receptor outputs provides a good approximation to the output of the large array. A device which simulates a large receptor array by repetitive solution of the set of equations for 9×9 sub-arrays is described. Various switching arrangements which reduce the complexity of the device are detailed. The circuit diagrams for all the required elements are given. In order to evaluate the possible utility of the device as a tool in pattern recognition studies, the output from the device for certain simple patterns was simulated on the digital computer. The results of this study are given, and some possible applications to the field of pattern recognition are mentioned. It is pointed out that the design of the device makes it a versatile instrument for simulating various types of receptor arrays.

description: We identify a novel route to the birth of a strange nonchaotic attractor (SNA) in a quasiperiodically forced electronic circuit with a nonsinusoidal (square wave) force as one of the quasiperiodic forces through numerical and experimental studies. We find that bubbles appear in the strands of the quasiperiodic attractor due to the instability induced by the additional square wave type force. The bubbles then enlarge and get increasingly wrinkled as a function of the control parameter. Finally, the bubbles get extremely wrinkled (while the remaining parts of the strands of the torus remain largely unaffected) resulting in the birth of the SNA which we term as the \emph{bubbling route to SNA}. We characterize and confirm this birth from both experimental and numerical data by maximal Lyapunov exponents and their variance, Poincaré maps, Fourier amplitude spectra and spectral distribution function. We also strongly confirm the birth of SNA via the bubbling route by the distribution of the finite-time Lyapunov exponents.

title: A Profile and Analysis of Repeat Bankruptcy Petitioners in the District of Utah 1984-2004
Creators: name: Llewellyn, Bonny C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: The purpose of this study was to describe the incidence of repeat filers in Utah and estimate the extent that repeat filers may be abusing the bankruptcy system. This study sought to develop a profile of repeat filers . Demographic and financial variables were examined to determine their association with abuser/nonabuser status. In this study, abuse of bankruptcy was characterized only by the timing and number of filings over 20 years. Debtors with three filings in a 2-year period or less and debtors with four or more total filings were classified as abusers. Nonabusers were defined as debtors who filed only once as well as debtors who had two or three scattered filings over the 20-year period.
About I I% of the total sample appeared to be abusing the bankruptcy system by filing repeatedly. The majority (76.2%) of the I 997 cases filed by abusers were dismissed while only 23.8% received a discharge of their unsecured debts. Only five (2.9%) of the I 71 abusers who filed chapter I 3 in I 997 completed their payment plan and received a discharge of their debts. The logistic regression model found chapter (7 versus 13), filing status, unsecured debt, and monthly income to be the most significant variables in estimating abuse. Males and females filing alone were nearly 50% less likely than joint filers to be abusers. Chapter 13 debtors are nearly five times as likely to be abusers when compared to chapter 7 debtors. Filers who had unsecured debt levels above the median were less likely to be abusers, and filers who had incomes above the median were almost twice as likely to be abusers.
Realistic repayment plans that pay careful attention to construction of budgets and a financial counselor to work with debtors who miss payments is one approach to combating abuse by repeat filing. Judges may need to discipline attorneys who file cases repeatedly. Perhaps a new Code is not what we need to combat abusers; instead, closer monitoring of cases by trustees, more responsible attorneys, and more responsible lending are needed.
Affleck-Dine Cogenesis of Baryon and Dark Matter

description: We propose a mechanism for cogenesis of baryon and dark matter (DM) in the universe via the Affleck-Dine (AD) route. An AD field which breaks the lepton number symmetry, leads to the generation of lepton asymmetry by virtue of its cosmic evolution, which then gets transferred into lepton and dark sectors. While the lepton asymmetry gets converted into baryon asymmetry via sphalerons, the dark sector asymmetry leads to the final DM abundance with the symmetric part being annihilated away due to resonantly enhanced annihilation, which we choose to be provided by a gauged $B-L$ portal. Stringent constraints from DM direct detection forces DM and $B-L$ gauge boson masses to be light, in the few GeV ballpark. While a large portion of the model parameter space is already ruled out, the remaining parameter space is within sensitivity of laboratory as well as cosmology based experiments. The AD field also plays the role of inflaton with the required dynamics by virtue of its non-minimal coupling to gravity, consistent with observations.

title: Experiments on the Inactivation of Zinc by the Mineral Fractions of the Soil
Creators: name: Hassett, John J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1967

description: Zinc deficiency, in many cases, is closely related to organic matter decomposition. DeRemer and Smith (1964) studied the effects of decomposing sugar beet tops on the reactions of Zn65 in a Portneuf soil. They found that with time the Zn65 associated with lime minerals, eschangable, and water soluble fractions of the soil decreased, while that found with the organic and mineral fractions increases. This increase in the mineral fraction is of particular interest, since the majority of the Zn65 was found to be with this fraction after a period of time. They also showed that the increase in Zn65 associated with sand-silt size fraction after a rough separation was greater than with the clay fraction. Smith, Henry, and Shourky (1965) studied the Zn65 associated with the organic fraction as it changed with time. They found that the Zn65 associated with the fulvic acid increased rapidly during early incubation periods, but in the later incubation periods had decreased considerably and was found in the mineral fraction. Shourky (1966), in a study of the effect of decomposing organic matter on the available Zn65 as determined with various reagents, found that after 12 weeks incubation a great portion of the Zn65 was found associated with the mineral fraction.

description: Microstrip transducers used for the excitation of spin waves in magnetic films possess two characteristic properties: high spatial localization of the microwave magnetic field and the presence of field components parallel and perpendicular to the bias field. Here, the effects of these features on the process of parametric pumping are presented. By microwave measurements of the spin-wave instability threshold a transition from parallel pumping to perpendicular pumping at the critical field $H_{\rm c}$ with the minimal threshold is observed. This transition is accompanied by a sharp threshold increase above the critical field due to the spatial confinement of the pump region.

See võimaldas hakata haiguse levikut sihiteadlikult tõkestama. Esimese maailmasõja ajal tehtud täitõrje andiski soodsaid tulemusi. Selle avastuse sotsiaalset tähtsust tunnustati Nobeli preemia andmisega Charles Nicolle’ile 1921. aastal. Täitõrje on jäänud nende haiguste profülaktikameetmeks senini.

description: Optically addressable solid-state defects are emerging as one of the most promising qubit platforms for quantum networks. Maximizing photon-defect interaction by nanophotonic cavity coupling is key to network efficiency. We demonstrate fabrication of gallium phosphide 1-D photonic crystal waveguide cavities on a silicon oxide carrier and subsequent integration with implanted silicon-vacancy (SiV) centers in diamond using a stamp-transfer technique. The stamping process avoids diamond etching and allows fine-tuning of the cavities prior to integration. After transfer to diamond, we measure cavity quality factors ($Q$) of up to 8900 and perform resonant excitation of single SiV centers coupled to these cavities. For a cavity with $Q$ of 4100, we observe a three-fold lifetime reduction on-resonance, corresponding to a maximum potential cooperativity of $C = 2$. These results indicate promise for high photon-defect interaction in a platform which avoids fabrication of the quantum defect host crystal.

Year: 2005

description: This research study consisted of eighty-six pairs (young adult and his or her parent) of participants recruited from freshman and sophomore classes in two Northern Utah Universities. The parents ages ranged from 36-80 and the young adult children's ages ranged from 16-25. This research project examined the participants' demographics, marital satisfaction (of the parents), attitudes toward marriage, attitudes toward divorce, and attitudes toward marital counseling.
Three paired t tests were used to determine whether attitudes toward marriage, divorce, and marital counseling were the same for young adult children and their parents. Multiple regression equations were used to determine what effects multiple variables (parental divorce rate and attitudes toward marriage, divorce, and marital counseling, young adult children's age, gender, and willingness to attend marital counseling in the future) have on young adult children's attitudes toward marriage, divorce, and marital counseling.

description: Analysing and processing the wealth of available biomedical literature is a major concern in life science research. However, freely accessing this wealth, retrieval of required information, extracting and semantically analysing knowledge present within this literature are some of the non-trivial challenges in this research domain. Each of these challenges are distributed over different platforms and require further purification of data content in order to move from one platform to another. The central focus of this research is to develop a methodology which seamlessly integrates these discrete platforms with the help of SCAIView information retrieval search system and UIMA based analytical workflows. This integrated solution provides an easy to use, well distributed, flexible, and an efficient solution to combine semantic search and document retrieval with a number of different analytical workflows.

Ultrasonic dispersion relations in liquid helium
Creators: name: Brown, Christopher Richard
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: An experimental investigation of the velocity of sound in liquid helium at temperatures near 1° K was abandoned (at an early stage)^when the results of Whitney and Chase(16) became available. The original investigation, which had been motivated by the idea that the peak in the attenuation-temperature curve near 1° K is related to a corresponding feature in the velocity-temperature curve, evolved into a search for mathematical relations connecting the temperature variations of velocity and attenuation. Classical dispersion theory is reviewed, with emphasis on its physical and mathematical foundations. Applications of the theory in the fields of electrical network design, dielectric dispersion and ultrasonics are described in order to illustrate the use and the limitations of the Kramers-Kronig relations. The possibility of extending the scope of the Kramers-Kronig relations, by using variables other than frequency, is discussed. A brief sketch of the quantum mechanical basis of linear response theory is given in support of a proposal to use reciprocal temperature as a variable in dispersion-type relations. An attempt was made to apply dispersion relations in reciprocal temperature to the problem of ultrasonic propagation in liquid helium and a comparison of the predicted and the experimentally observed attenuations at the λ point was found to give encouraging results. The interferometer, to have been used in the proposed experiment is described.

Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: This study sought to examine the relationship between ethnic identity and the grade and gender of the subjects. Changes in ethnic identity over time were also analyzed. Students attending grades four through eight of the Nyssa Migrant School summer program participated in this study. One hundred twenty-four participants completed the pretest, eighty-nine completed the posttest, with a total of seventy-nine completing both the pretest and posttest. Students responded to the Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure, which examined the subcategories of belonging and exploration to comprise the overall ethnic identity level.
Scores were compared by grade and by gender at pretest and at posttest. Scores were also examined in those same subgroups for a change over time in the 79 subjects completing both the pretest and posttest. Though not statistically significant, results indicated a trend for males as a whole to show a greater increase in overall ethnic identity over the course of the summer school program than their female counterparts. Results also showed an increase (although not statistically significant) in ethnic identity for the group as a whole over the course of the six-week program, warranting further investigation into the summer program's effectiveness for enhancing ethnic identity. This aforementioned increase was more pronounced in children in the older grades, supporting a developmental progression of ethnic identity. At both the pretest and posttest, adjusted means for belonging were statistically significantly higher than those for exploration, F(l, 77) = 171.03,p = .000; F(l, 77) = 141.12,p = .000, respectively. Implications of these findings for future programs and future research are discussed.

description: Gravitational lenses can magnify distant galaxies, allowing us to discover and characterize the stellar populations of intrinsically faint, quiescent galaxies that are otherwise extremely difficult to directly observe at high redshift from ground-based telescopes. Here, we present the spectral analysis of two lensed, quiescent galaxies at $z\gtrsim 1$ discovered by the ASTRO 3D Galaxy Evolution with Lenses survey: AGEL1323 ($M_*\sim 10^{11.1}M_{\odot}$, $z=1.016$, $μ\sim 14.6$) and AGEL0014 ($M_*\sim 10^{11.5}M_{\odot}$, $z=1.374$, $μ\sim 4.3$). We measured the age, [Fe/H], and [Mg/Fe] of the two lensed galaxies using deep, rest-frame-optical spectra (S/N $\gtrsim 40$~$\mathring {\mathrm A}$$^{-1}$) obtained on the Keck~I telescope. The ages of AGEL1323 and AGEL0014 are $5.6^{+0.8}_{-0.8}$~Gyr and $3.1^{+0.8}_{-0.3}$~Gyr, respectively, indicating that most of the stars in the galaxies were formed less than 2~Gyr after the Big Bang. Compared to nearby quiescent galaxies of similar masses, the lensed galaxies have lower [Fe/H] and [Mg/H]. Surprisingly, the two galaxies have comparable [Mg/Fe] to similar-mass galaxies at lower redshifts, despite their old ages. Using a simple analytic chemical evolution model connecting the instantaneously recycled element Mg with the mass-loading factors of outflows averaged over the entire star formation history, we found that the lensed galaxies may have experienced enhanced outflows during their star formation compared to lower-redshift galaxies, which may explain why they quenched early.

description: The observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) such as 980425, 031203 and 060218, with luminosities much lower than those of other classic bursts, lead to the definition of a new class of GRBs -- low-luminosity GRBs. The nature of the outflow responsible for them is not clear yet. Two scenarios have been suggested: one is the conventional relativistic outflow with initial Lorentz factor of order of $Γ_0\ga 10$ and the other is a trans-relativistic outflow with $Γ_0\simeq 1-2$. Here we compare the high energy gamma-ray afterglow emission from these two different models, taking into account both synchrotron self inverse-Compton scattering (SSC) and the external inverse-Compton scattering due to photons from the cooling supernova or hypernova envelope (SNIC). We find that the conventional relativistic outflow model predicts a relatively high gamma-ray flux from SSC at early times ($<10^4 {\rm s}$ for typical parameters) with a rapidly decaying light curve, while in the trans-relativistic outflow model, one would expect a much flatter light curve of high-energy gamma-ray emission at early times, which could be dominated by both the SSC emission and SNIC emission, depending on the properties of the underlying supernova and the shock parameter $ε_e$ and $ε_B$. The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope should be able to distinguish between the two models in the future.

Hard to reach out to both peers and the public for both in and outsiders => No collaboration fun, no sense of pride and accomplishment, depressed researchers. 2. Evidence of duplication of research <= No effective collaboration occuring/possible at early stages. 3. Evidence of research waste <= No effective peer review conducted/possible at early stages. 4. High competition for grants => Teams left unfunded. 5. Proprietary/costly/privileged resources unavailable => Underserved teams stuck with projects. * In other words, it is sometimes hard enough to even engage in a project (Problem #1). Further, even if engaging was effective, the research may turn out as duplicate (Problem #2), or if not duplicate, meaningless (Problem #3). The rest of the projects may get turned down for funding (Problem #4), but even when provided funding, still may suffer important shortages (Problem #5). Overall, the success of the project would be in peril. * Hence the rationale for this RESCUER: What practical solutions do exist? Importantly, the focus is on real working initiatives not theory.

In the former, we use the recipe of arXiv:hep-th/0304064 to directly rederive the solution that was obtained by Gutowski and Reall in arXiv:hep-th/0401042 as a scaling limit from a spherical black hole. With the same techniques, the first example of a black hole with SL$(2,\mathbb{R})$ horizon is constructed, which is rotating and one quarter BPS. The physical properties of this solution are discussed, and it is shown that in the near-horizon limit it boils down to the geometry of arXiv:hep-th/0401042, with a supersymmetry enhancement to one half. Dimensional reduction to $D=4$ gives a new solution with hyperbolic horizon to the t$^3$ model that carries both electric and magnetic charges. Moreover, we show how to get a nonextremal rotating Nil black hole by applying a certain scaling limit to Kerr-AdS$_5$ with two equal rotation parameters, which consists in zooming onto the north pole of the S$^2$ over which the S$^3$ is fibered, while boosting the horizon velocity effectively to the speed of light.

description: Invasive species populations periodically collapse from high to low abundance, sometimes even to extinction. Pathogens and the burden they place on invader immune systems have been hypothesised as a mechanism for these collapses. We examined the association of the bacterial pathogen (Pseudomonas spp.) and the viral community with immune gene expression in the globally invasive Argentine ant (Linepithema humile (Mayr)). RNA-seq analysis found evidence for 17 different viruses in Argentine ants from New Zealand, including three bacteriophages with one (Pseudomonas phage PS-1) likely to be attacking the bacterial host. Pathogen loads and prevalence varied immensely. Transcriptomic data showed that immune gene expression was consistent with respect to the viral classification of negative-sense, positive-sense and double-stranded RNA viruses. Genes that were the most strongly associated with the positive-sense RNA viruses such as the Linepithema humile virus 1 (LHUV-1) and the Deformed wing virus (DWV) were peptide recognition proteins assigned to the Toll and Imd pathways. We then used principal components analysis and regression modelling to determine how RT-qPCR derived immune gene expression levels were associated with viral and bacterial loads. Argentine ants mounted a substantial immune response to both Pseudomonas and LHUV-1 infections, involving almost all immune pathways. Other viruses including DWV and the Kashmir bee virus appeared to have much less immunological influence. Different pathogens were associated with varying immunological responses, which we hypothesize to interact with and influence the invasion dynamics of this species.

description: Enamikul kutsehaigetel puudub kutsehaiguse diagnoos.

Vaatamata sellele, et kutsehaiguste diagnoosimise ja raviga on Eestis tegeletud ligemale 50 aastat, tuleb tunnistada, et selles valdkonnas oleme aja nõuetest tohutult maha jäänud. Julgen väita, et ajuti toimib veel nõukogudeaegne ideoloogia, mis püüdis kutsehaiguste diagnoosimist muuta tabuks: kutsehaiguse tuvastamine tõi endaga kaasa ettevõtte juhile suuri ebameeldivusi.

description: Äge hematogeenne osteomüeliit on septiline haigus, mis esineb põhiliselt lapse- ja noorukieas. Sagedamini haigestuvad poisid. Protsess lokaliseerub 70% juhtudest alajäseme toruluudes. Haigust vallandavaks teguriks võib olla eelnev trauma, kuid sageli jääb põhjus ebaselgeks. Antibakteriaalse ravi valikpreparaatideks on oksatsilliin ja gentamütsiin. Haiguse algus on tavaliselt äge ning tüüpiliste nähtudega, kuid autorite andmeil diagnoositakse haigus sageli hilinenult.

title: Adoptees' Knowledge about and Contact with Birth Parents and Their Adjustment in Adolescence and Young Adulthood
Creators: name: Park, Kyung-Eun
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: This study described adoptees' knowledge of and contact with birth parents in adolescence and young adulthood, and analyzed the relationship between adoptees' knowledge of and contact with birth parents and the adoptees' adjustment in young adulthood. Data for the current study came from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health). In total, 487 adoptees were identified for this study in Wave I (1995) and Wave Ill (2 002). Descriptive and multivariate analyses using logistic regression were conducted.
Adoptees were more likely to be aware of their birth mothers than of their birth fathers and the percentage differences between their knowledge about birth mothers and about birth fathers were reduced over time. Adoptees were more likely to know about their birth parents during young adulthood than adolescence. Being female, being placed at an older age, never placed in a foster home, and being in young adulthood were statistically significant factors to increase the probability of knowing about birth mothers; being placed at older age and being in young adulthood statistically significantly affected the probability of having knowledge about birth fathers.
Adoptees were more likely to contact their birth mothers than birth fathers and the differences in percentage concerning contacting birth mothers and birth fathers were increased seven years later. Being adopted at older age, never placed in a foster home, and being in young adulthood were statistically significantly associated with the probability of contacting birth mothers. Being adopted at an older age was associated with the probability of contacting birth fathers.
The more adoptees knew about or contacted their birth parents, the less they attended college and the more they formed couple relationships in young adulthood. However, this negative effect of knowing about or contacting birth parents almost disappeared when other variables were controlled. This study provides new information in adoption studies, but the results remain inconclusive until the dynamics of pre-adoption history and post-adoption relationships are better understood.

description: Relativistic electrons in a structured medium generate radiative losses such as Cherenkov and transition radiation that act as a virtual light source, coupling to the photonic densities of states. The effect is most pronounced when the imaginary part of the dielectric function is zero, a regime where in a non-retarded treatment no loss or coupling can occur. Maps of the resultant energy losses as a sub-5nm electron probe scans across finite waveguide structures reveal spatial distributions of optical modes in a spectral domain ranging from near-infrared to far ultraviolet.

title: The Effect of Changing Temperatures on Hardiness, Respiration, and Intensity of Rest of Dormant Peach and Apricot Buds
Creators: name: Hatch, Anthony H.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1967

description: studies were conducted to better understand the influence of temperature on the rest period of dormant peach and apricot buds. Gleason Elberta peach and Chinese apricot trees in the field at Howell Experiment Station in Ogden were used to evaluate rest intensity, respiration, and cold hardiness in relation to temperature.
A rest intensity curve was obtained for both species using various concentrations of gibberellic acid. It was found that temperature had no direct effect on the depth of rest and that the depth of rest had no measurable influence on respiration and cold hardiness.
Respiration of flower and leaf buds was not affected by temperature until after the rest period was over and the temperature rose above 40 F. However, cold hardiness was directly affected by temperature during the rest period. As the temperatures dropped the cold hardiness increased in both species.
Lovell peach seedlings were placed in 5 gallon containers and placed in controlled temperature chambers. At 3 different periods, 3 trees were removed from 9 different temperature treatments. It was found that 40 F was generally more effective in breaking rest than was 32 F. Light did not seem to affect the rest period significantly.

description: Medication recommendation is a vital task for improving patient care and reducing adverse events. However, existing methods often fail to capture the complex and dynamic relationships among patient medical records, drug efficacy and safety, and drug-drug interactions (DDI). In this paper, we propose ALGNet, a novel model that leverages light graph convolutional networks (LGCN) and augmentation memory networks (AMN) to enhance medication recommendation. LGCN can efficiently encode the patient records and the DDI graph into low-dimensional embeddings, while AMN can augment the patient representation with external knowledge from a memory module. We evaluate our model on the MIMIC-III dataset and show that it outperforms several baselines in terms of recommendation accuracy and DDI avoidance. We also conduct an ablation study to analyze the effects of different components of our model. Our results demonstrate that ALGNet can achieve superior performance with less computation and more interpretability. The implementation of this paper can be found at: https://github.com/huyquoctrinh/ALGNet.
title: Couples in Great Marriages with a Traditional Structure and Egalitarian Relationship

Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2006

description: This study researched the possibility of an egalitarian relationship coexisting with a traditional role-structured marriage. Qualitative methods were used to gather data from a national sample using a 3 1-page questionnaire. Out of the larger Great Marriage Research Study of 130 respondents (65 couples), 14 couples fit the criteria for this study in that they had a traditional structure to their marriage and both felt their was a balance of power between them. Their stories were analyzed to discover what their marriages were like and how they talked about and operationalized an egalitarian relationship. Findings from this research indicated that it is possible to have an egalitarian marriage relationship paired with a traditional role-structure. The findings can contribute to marriage education for couples who choose to live with a traditional structure, but want an egalitarian relationship.
title: Transfer Restrictions and Misallocation of Irrigation Water

description: Water is among the most abundant of all materials known to man. In all its various forms, water covers 75 percent of the earth's surface. It is estimated that the total physical quantity of water on the earth is 326,000,000 cubic miles. This apparent abundance belies the true nature of the water resource as it relates to the needs of man. At any given point in time, only a rather minute portion of this vast quantity of water is found in those forms and locations which render it useful to man. This may be attributed to the fact that utility in water is perishable and the efforts of man to amend the hydrological cycle have been successful only to a limited extent.

description: Motivated by the neutron decay anomaly, we reconsider the neutron decay model $n \rightarrow χχχ$, where the new species $χ$ plays the role of dark matter. We precisely compute the $\barχ n \rightarrow χχ$ rate finding that fitting the anomaly compatibly with all bounds needs two ''generations'' of the $χ$ particle.
