Proximal Home Value Impacts of Floodplain Buyouts in Charlotte, North Carolina

description: Floodplain buyouts are an increasingly common tool implemented in response to flooding. Buyout’s administration is an expensive process and must be properly managed to balance hazard mitigation and community interests. Presently, there is no research exploring the effect buyouts have on surrounding residential sale values. I hypothesize that proximity to buyouts will not be a significant factor in home sale values due to the variation in which surrounding open space has on home values and qualitative findings suggesting buyouts do not impact home values. This study examines this relationship by using Charlotte North Carolina as a case study. 
Our findings are inconclusive due to low statistical power, but initial results suggest conducting buyouts may not have significant implications (negative or positive) for residential values. Additionally, we find that within a 0.125 mile (~0.2 km) proximity, the number of buyouts do not have a significant impact on sale values. At the 0.25 mile (~0.4 km) proximity there is a weak negative relationship. The results of this study preliminary indicate that concerns of negative impacts on residential sale values should not prevent the development and administration of buyouts. However, there is a need for further research due to this studies low statistical power.

title: Phylogenetic definitions for Caprimulgimorphae (Aves) and major constituent clades under the International Code of Phylogenetic Nomenclature

description: Phylogenetic nomenclature, a system of taxonomic nomenclature in which taxon names are defined based on phylogenetic relationships, has been widely adopted in recent decades, particularly by vertebrate palaeontologists. However, formal regulation of this taxonomic system had been non-existent until the recent implementation of the International Code of Phylogenetic Nomenclature (PhyloCode). To fulfil the requirements of the PhyloCode, we explicitly establish phylogenetic definitions that we recommended in a recent phylogenetic study on the avian taxon Caprimulgimorphae (which includes nightjars, potoos, frogmouths, swifts, hummingbirds, and others) and many of its major constituent subclades. Two new names are coined: Sedentaves (for the smallest crown clade uniting Steatornis and Nyctibiidae) and Letornithes (for the smallest crown clade uniting Podargidae and Daedalornithes). We also briefly review the fossil record and diagnostic morphological apomorphies of caprimulgimorph clades for which relevant information is available.

description: This work presents the first silicon-validated dedicated EGM-to-ECG (G2C) processor, dubbed e-G2C, featuring continuous lightweight anomaly detection, event-driven coarse/precise conversion, and on-chip adaptation. e-G2C utilizes neural network (NN) based G2C conversion and integrates 1) an architecture supporting anomaly detection and coarse/precise conversion via time multiplexing to balance the effectiveness and power, 2) an algorithm-hardware co-designed vector-wise sparsity resulting in a 1.6-1.7$\times$ speedup, 3) hybrid dataflows for enhancing near 100% utilization for normal/depth-wise(DW)/point-wise(PW) convolutions (Convs), and 4) an on-chip detection threshold adaptation engine for continuous effectiveness. The achieved 0.14-8.31 $μ$J/inference energy efficiency outperforms prior arts under similar complexity, promising real-time detection/conversion and possibly life-critical interventions

Integrative comparative cognition: Can neurobiology and neurogenomics inform comparative analyses of cognitive phenotype?
Creators: name: Burmeister, S.S.
name: Liu, Y.,
Publisher: name: Oxford University Press
Year: 2020

description: A long-standing question in animal behavior is what are the patterns and processes that shape the evolution of cognition? One effective way to address this question is to study cognitive abilities in a broad spectrum of animals. While comparative psychologists have traditionally focused on a narrow range of organisms, today they may work with any number of species, from frogs to birds or bees. This broader range of study species has greatly enriched our understanding of the diversity of cognitive processes among animals. Yet, this diversity has highlighted the fundamental challenge of comparing cognitive processes across animals. An analysis of the neural and molecular mechanisms of cognition may be necessary to solve this problem. The goal of our symposium was to bring together speakers studying a range of species to gain a broadly integrative perspective on cognition while at the same time considering the potentially important role of neurobiology and genomics in addressing the difficult problem of comparing cognition across species. For example, work by MaBouDi et al. indicates that neural constraints on computing power may impact the cognitive processes underlying numerical discrimination in bees. A presentation by Lara LaDage demonstrated how neurobiology can be used to better understand cognition and its evolution in reptiles while Edwards et al. identify the cerebellum as potentially important in the performance of the complex process of nest building. We see that molecular approaches highlight the contributions of the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus to cognitive phenotype across vertebrates while, at the same time, identifying the genes and cellular processes that may contribute to evolution of cognition. The potentially important role of neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity emerge clearly from such studies. Still unanswered is the question of whether molecular tools will contribute to our ability to discriminate convergent/parallel evolution from homology in the evolution of cognitive phenotype.

description: Quantum key distribution (QKD) promises information theoretic secure key as long as the device performs as assumed in the theoretical model. One of the assumptions is an absence of information leakage about individual photon detection outcomes of the receiver unit. Here we investigate the information leakage from a QKD receiver due to photon emission caused by detection events in single-photon detectors (backflash). We test commercial silicon avalanche photodiodes and a photomultiplier tube, and find that the former emit backflashes. We study the spectral, timing and polarization characteristics of these backflash photons. We experimentally demonstrate on a free-space QKD receiver that an eavesdropper can distinguish which detector has clicked inside it, and thus acquire secret information. A set of countermeasures both in theory and on the physical devices are discussed.

description: Social preferences enable animals to selectively interact with some individuals over others. One influential idea for the evolution of social preferences is that preferred signals evolve because they elicit greater neural responses from sensory systems. However, in juvenile plains spadefoot toad (Spea bombifrons), a species with condition-dependent mating preferences, responses of the preoptic area, but not of the auditory midbrain, mirror adult social preferences. To examine whether this separation of signal representation from signal valuation generalizes to other anurans, we compared the relative contributions of noradrenergic signalling in the preoptic area and auditory midbrain of S. bombifrons and its close relative Spea multiplicata We manipulated body condition in juvenile toads by controlling diet and used high pressure liquid chromatography to compare call-induced levels of noradrenaline and its metabolite MHPG in the auditory midbrain and preoptic area of the two species. We found that calls from the two species induced different levels of noradrenaline and MHPG in the auditory system, with higher levels measured in both species for the more energetic S. bombifrons call. In contrast, noradrenaline levels in the preoptic area mirrored patterns of social preferences in both S. bombifrons and S. multiplicata That is, noradrenaline levels were higher in response to the preferred calls within each species and were modified by diet in S. bombifrons (with condition-dependent preferences) but not S. multiplicata (with condition-independent preferences). Our results are consistent with a potentially important role for preoptic noradrenaline in the development of social preferences and indicate that it could be a target of selection in the evolution of condition-dependent social preferences.

description: Algorithm selection wizards are effective and versatile tools that automatically select an optimization algorithm given high-level information about the problem and available computational resources, such as number and type of decision variables, maximal number of evaluations, possibility to parallelize evaluations, etc. State-of-the-art algorithm selection wizards are complex and difficult to improve. We propose in this work the use of automated configuration methods for improving their performance by finding better configurations of the algorithms that compose them. In particular, we use elitist iterated racing (irace) to find CMA configurations for specific artificial benchmarks that replace the hand-crafted CMA configurations currently used in the NGOpt wizard provided by the Nevergrad platform. We discuss in detail the setup of irace for the purpose of generating configurations that work well over the diverse set of problem instances within each benchmark. Our approach improves the performance of the NGOpt wizard, even on benchmark suites that were not part of the tuning by irace.

description: Background: Personal recovery, ‘living a satisfying, hopeful and contributing lifeeven with the limitations caused by the illness’ (Anthony, 1993) is of particular value in bipolar disorder where symptoms often persist despite treatment. So far, personal recovery has only been studied in researcher-constructed environments (interviews, focus groups). Support forum posts can serve as a complementary naturalistic data source. Objective: The overarching aim of this thesis was to study personal recovery experiences that people living with bipolar disorder have shared in online support forums through integrating health research, NLP, and corpus linguistics in a mixed methods approach within a pragmatic research paradigm, while considering ethical issues and involving people with lived experience. Methods: This mixed-methods study analysed: 1) previous qualitative evidence on personal recovery in bipolar disorder from interviews and focus groups 2) who self-reports a bipolar disorder diagnosis on the online discussion platform Reddit 3) the relationship of mood and posting in mental health-specific Reddit forums (subreddits) 4) discussions of personal recovery in bipolar disorder subreddits. Results: A systematic review of qualitative evidence resulted in the first framework for personal recovery in bipolar disorder, POETIC (Purpose & meaning, Optimism & hope, Empowerment, Tensions, Identity, Connectedness). Mainly young or middle-aged US-based adults self-report a bipolar disorder diagnosis on Reddit. Of these, those experiencing more intense emotions appear to be more likely to post in mental health support subreddits. Their personal recovery-related discussions in bipolar disorder subreddits primarily focussed on three domains: Purpose & meaning (particularly reproductive decisions, work), Connectedness (romantic relationships, social support), Empowerment (self-management, personal responsibility). Support forum data highlighted personal recovery issues that exclusively or more frequently came up online compared to previous evidence from interviews and focus groups. Conclusion: This project is the first to analyse non-reactive data on personal recovery in bipolar disorder. Indicating the key areas that people focus on in personal recovery when posting freely and the language they use provides a helpful starting point for formal and informal carers to understand the concerns of people diagnosed with bipolar disorder and to consider how best to offer support.

description: Physics-constrained data-driven computing is an emerging computational paradigm that allows simulation of complex materials directly based on material database and bypass the classical constitutive model construction. However, it remains difficult to deal with high-dimensional applications and extrapolative generalization. This paper introduces deep learning techniques under the data-driven framework to address these fundamental issues in nonlinear materials modeling. To this end, an autoencoder neural network architecture is introduced to learn the underlying low-dimensional representation (embedding) of the given material database. The offline trained autoencoder and the discovered embedding space are then incorporated in the online data-driven computation such that the search of optimal material state from database can be performed on a low-dimensional space, aiming to enhance the robustness and predictability with projected material data. To ensure numerical stability and representative constitutive manifold, a convexity-preserving interpolation scheme tailored to the proposed autoencoder-based data-driven solver is proposed for constructing the material state. In this study, the applicability of the proposed approach is demonstrated by modeling nonlinear biological tissues. A parametric study on data noise, data size and sparsity, training initialization, and model architectures, is also conducted to examine the robustness and convergence property of the proposed approach.

description: A fundamental question in cognitive science is whether an animal can use a cognitive map. A cognitive map is a mental representation of the external world, and knowledge of one’s place in this world, that can be used to determine efficient routes to any destination. Many birds and mammals are known to employ a cognitive map, but whether other vertebrates can create a cognitive map is less clear. Amphibians are capable of using beacons, gradients and landmarks when navigating, and many are proficient at homing. Yet only one prior study directly tested for a cognitive map in amphibians, with negative results. Poison frogs exhibit unusually complex social and spatial behaviors and are capable of long-distance homing after displacement, suggesting that they may be using complex spatial navigation strategies in nature. Here, we trained the poison frog Dendrobates auratus in a modified Morris water maze that was designed to suppress thigmotaxis to the maze wall, promoting exploration of the arena. In our moat maze, the poison frogs were able to use a configuration of visual cues to find the hidden platform. Moreover, we demonstrate that they chose direct paths to the goal from multiple random initial positions, a hallmark of a cognitive map. The performance of the frogs in the maze was qualitatively similar to that of rodents, suggesting that the potential to evolve a cognitive map is an evolutionarily conserved trait of vertebrates.

description: The stellar and neutral hydrogen (HI) mass functions at z~0 are fundamental benchmarks for current models of galaxy evolution. A natural extension of these benchmarks is the two-dimensional distribution of galaxies in the plane spanned by stellar and HI mass, which provides a more stringent test of simulations, as it requires the HI to be located in galaxies of the correct stellar mass. Combining HI data from the ALFALFA survey, with optical data from SDSS, we find a distinct envelope in the HI-to-stellar mass distribution, corresponding to an upper limit in the HI fraction that varies monotonically over five orders of magnitude in stellar mass. This upper envelope in HI fraction does not favour the existence of a significant population of dark galaxies with large amounts of gas but no corresponding stellar population. The envelope shows a break at a stellar mass of ~10^9 Msun, which is not reproduced by modern models of galaxy populations tracing both stellar and gas masses. The discrepancy between observations and models suggests a mass dependence in gas storage and consumption missing in current galaxy evolution prescriptions. The break coincides with the transition from galaxies with predominantly irregular morphology at low masses to regular disks at high masses, as well as the transition from cold to hot accretion of gas in simulations.

Complex Korteweg-de Vries equation and Nonlinear dust-acoustic waves in a magnetoplasma with a pair of trapped ions
Creators: name: Misra, A. P.

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: The nonlinear propagation of dust-acoustic (DA) waves in a magnetized dusty plasma with a pair of trapped ions is investigated. Starting from a set of hydrodynamic equations for massive dust fluids as well as kinetic Vlasov equations for ions, and applying the reductive perturbation technique, a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV)-like equation with a complex coefficient of nonlinearity is derived, which governs the evolution of small-amplitude DA waves in plasmas. The complex coefficient arises due to vortex-like distributions of both positive and negative ions. An analytical as well as numerical solution of the KdV equation are obtained and analyzed with the effects of external magnetic field, the dust pressure as well as different mass and temperatures of positive and negative ions.

description: Субсидии являются инструментом софинансирования расходных обязательств согласно полномочиям органов местного самоуправления по вопросам местного значения. Предоставление субсидий содействует решению национальных задач и воздействует на сбалансированность бюджета получателя субсидии из вышестоящего бюджета. Целью данного исследования является выявление основных недостатков системы и разработка направлений совершенствования распределения субсидий в Санкт-Петербурге. В Санкт-Петербурге размер субсидии рассчитывается исходя из ожидаемых показателей конечных результатов реализации муниципальных программ. Автором предлагается введение единой методики, реализация которой происходит в два этапа. На первом этапе оценивается потенциальный получатель субсидий и предлагаемая муниципальная программа по критериям бюджетной обеспеченности и качества управления муниципальными финансами. На втором этапе по формуле рассчитывается объем выделяемых средств. Распределение объемов субсидий по единой методике станет стимулирующим элементом развитии межбюджетных отношений в Санкт-Петербурге.Subsidy is a co-financing tool that provides payment of expenses according to the authority of local governments. The provision of subsidies contributes to national challenges and impacts on the balance of the budget. The purpose of this topic is to identify the main limitations of the subsidy distribution system and to develop directions for improving the distribution of subsidies in St. Petersburg. Nowadays methodology for the distribution of subsidies doesn’t apply, the amount of subsidy is calculated based on the expected indicators of the final results of the implementation of municipal programs. The author proposes the method for the distribution of subsidies. Distribution of subsidies by the author’s method is a stimulating element in the inter-budget relations of St. Petersburg.

Neurobiology of female mate choice in frogs: Auditory filtering and valuation
Creators: name: Burmeister, S.S.
Publisher: name: Oxford University Press
Year: 2017

description: Mate choice is a decision making process with profound implication for the reproductive success of both the sender and the chooser. Preferences for conspecific over heterospecific males and for some conspecifics over others are typically mediated by a female's response to signals produced by males. And although one can experimentally describe a female's preference function, there is relatively little understood about the neural mechanisms mediating these preferences. In anurans, mating preferences have often been explained in terms of sensory biases. Indeed, in the tungara frog (Physalaemus pustulosus), the auditory system appears to act as a filter for conspecific calls. However, auditory responses are not good predictors of intraspecific mating preferences in tungara frogs. Rather, neural activity in the preoptic area, which can be gated by estradiol, is a better predictor of mating preferences. A similar pattern holds in spadefoot toads (Spea bombifrons): the preoptic area, but not the auditory midbrain, integrates physiological cues in its response to mating calls in a pattern that predicts preferences. Neuroanatomically, the anuran preoptic area is poised to mediate forebrain influences on auditory response of the midbrain and it has descending projections to the medulla and spinal cord that could directly influence motor responses. Indeed, lesions of the preoptic area abolish phonotaxis. A role for the preoptic area in mating preferences is supported by studies in mammals that show the preoptic area is required for the expression of preferences. Further, activity of the preoptic area correlates with mating preference in fish. This leads to a model for the neurobiological mechanisms of mate choice, in which sensory systems filter relevant signals from irrelevant ones, but the preoptic area assigns value to the range of relevant signals.
Persistent ion beam induced conductivity in zinc oxide nanowires

description: We report persistently increased conduction in ZnO nanowires irradiated by ion beam with various ion energies and species. This effect is shown to be related to the already known persistent photo conduction in ZnO and dubbed persistent ion beam induced conduction. Both effects show similar excitation efficiency, decay rates, and chemical sensitivity. Persistent ion beam induced conduction will potentially allow countable (i.e., single dopant) implantation in ZnO nanostructures and other materials showing persistent photo conduction.
