description: Is standard, Kripke-style semantics for quantified modal logic compatible with the view that no individual may belong to more than one possible world? One is naturally inclined to answer in the negative, arguing that the view requires a Lewis-style, counterpart-theoretic semantics instead. Strictly speaking, however, this natural answer is wrong-headed. This note explains why.

Year: 2019

description: Hugo Loetscher foi um dos poucos autores da literatura de expressão alemã que se ocupou de forma intensa com o fenómeno da globalização em toda a sua obra. O presente artigo procura, de forma sucinta, tecer algumas considerações sobre os aspetos mais importantes relacionados com esta temática no seu romance Der Immune. Sem dúvida que a peça fundamental para o processo pessoal de globalização de Loetscher neste livro é a criação do tópico da imunidade. Porém, pretende-se também analisar outros aspetos que contribuem para esta questão estar tão presente nesta obra deste autor suíço.

description: Vassiliy Kandinskiy é um nome incontornável e assaz conhecido das artes plásticas do século passado. Contudo, há aspetos significativos que estão na base da formação da conceção artística do pintor e da sua mundivisão, que, por demasiado longínquos quer no espaço, quer no tempo, passam, muitas vezes despercebidos do público. Com este artigo, pretendemos, sobretudo, apresentar o desenvolvimento de Vassiliy Kandiskiy, enquanto teórico e pintor, no contexto da cultura russa dos finais séc. XIX e início do séc. XX. Para reconstruir esse período da vida do autor socorremo-nos das suas memórias Degraus, bem como as obras teóricas do autor e a correspondência que este manteve com vários amigos da época, entre outra bibliografia.

Year: 2019

description: This paper presents the background of a doctoral investigation in interpreting studies and is mainly focused on a set of experiments carried out in on-site (OSI) and remote interpreting (RI) settings, involving two groups of interpreter trainees and one group of professional interpreters. The procedures adopted to evaluate both the performance of these subjects and the quality of the interpreting tasks in the two different environments revealed the absence of statistically significant differences in the two scenarios compared. This research is therefore also devoted to reflect upon the reluctance shown by professional interpreters towards RI, even though discrepancies between both distinct settings may not necessarily be perceived.

description: Background: Sebaceous glands are components of the skin essential for its normal lubrication by the production of sebum. This contributes to skin health and more importantly is crucial for the skin barrier function. A mechanistic understanding of sebaceous gland cells growth and differentiation has lagged behind that for keratinocytes, partly because of a lack of an in vitro model that can be used for experimental manipulation. Methods: We have developed an in vitro culture model to isolate and grow primary human sebocytes without transformation that display functional characteristics of sebocytes. We used this novel method to probe the effect of Transforming Growth Factor β (TGFβ) signaling on sebocyte differentiation, by examining the expression of genes involved in lipogenesis upon treatment with TGFβ1. We also repressed TGFβ signaling through knockdown of the TGFβ Receptor II to address if the effect of TGFβ activation is mediated via canonical Smad signal transduction. Results: We find that activation of the TGFβ signaling pathway is necessary and sufficient for maintaining sebocytes in an undifferentiated state. The presence of TGFβ ligand triggered decreased expression in genes required for the production of characteristics sebaceous lipids and for sebocyte differentiation such as FADS2 and PPARγ, thereby decreasing lipid accumulation through the TGFβ RII-Smad2 dependent pathway. Conclusion: TGFβ signaling plays an essential role in sebaceous gland regulation by maintaining sebocytes in an undifferentiated state. This data was generated using a novel method for human sebocyte culture, which is likely to prove generally useful in investigations of sebaceous gland growth and differentiation. These findings open a new paradigm in human skin biology with important implications for skin therapies.

description: We report on the synthesis and the physical properties of Ba1-xRbxTi2Sb2O (x < 0.4) by x-ray diffraction, SQUID magnetometery, resistivity and specific heat measurements. Upon hole doping by substituting Ba with Rb, we find superconductivity with a maximum Tc = 5.4 K. Simultaneously, the charge-density-wave (CDW) transition temperature is strongly reduced from T_CDW 55 K in the parent compound BaTi2Sb2O and seems to be suppressed for x > 0.2. The bulk character of the superconducting state for the optimally doped sample (x = 0.2) is confirmed by the occurrence of a well developed discontinuity in the specific heat at Tc, with \DeltaC/Tc = 22 mJ/mol K2, as well as a large Meissner-shielding fraction of approximately 40 %. The lower and the upper critical fields of the optimally doped sample (x = 0.2) are estimated to \mu0Hc1(0) = 3.8 mT and \mu0Hc2(0) = 2.3 T, respectively, indicating that these compounds are strongly type-II superconductors.

description: Debido al rápido desarrollo de las tecnologías de comunicación e información, la traducción ha dejado de ser una tarea solitaria de individuos aislados. Por el contrario, las competencias interpersonales resultan fundamentales para el traductor, tales como la capacidad para trabajar y negociar con los demás, ya se trate de colegas, clientes o iniciadores, gestores de proyecto, revisores, entre otros. El aprendizaje colaborativo se revela como el más adecuado para la adquisición de esas competencias y para el desarrollo de la autonomía de los alumnos. Este artículo se basa en las respuestas obtenidas en dos años lectivos consecutivos (2012-13 y 2013-14) a un cuestionario dado a los alumnos de la UC de traducción técnica español-portugués de la titulación de Asesoría y Traducción de ISCAP, después de que estos completaran un proyecto de grupo hacia el final de un período de dos semestres de formación. Este proyecto de grupo intentó replicar lo más posible condiciones de trabajo reales, atribuyendo a cada alumno funciones específicas, tales como construcción de glosarios, traducción, revisión y gestión de proyecto. Dado que los alumnos asistían a clase en diferentes horarios, la comunicación cara a cara se redujo al mínimo y se utilizaron otros medios de comunicación como los foros y las videoconferencias. Este estudio intenta analizar las actitudes de los alumnos con respecto al trabajo colaborativo y de equipo en esas condiciones particulares, así como comparar su grado de satisfacción con respecto a otros tipos de proyectos.

description: Background: The increasing availability of Electronic Health Record (EHR) data and specifically free-text patient notes presents opportunities for phenotype extraction. Text-mining methods in particular can help disease modeling by mapping named-entities mentions to terminologies and clustering semantically related terms. EHR corpora, however, exhibit specific statistical and linguistic characteristics when compared with corpora in the biomedical literature domain. We focus on copy-and-paste redundancy: clinicians typically copy and paste information from previous notes when documenting a current patient encounter. Thus, within a longitudinal patient record, one expects to observe heavy redundancy. In this paper, we ask three research questions: (i) How can redundancy be quantified in large-scale text corpora? (ii) Conventional wisdom is that larger corpora yield better results in text mining. But how does the observed EHR redundancy affect text mining? Does such redundancy introduce a bias that distorts learned models? Or does the redundancy introduce benefits by highlighting stable and important subsets of the corpus? (iii) How can one mitigate the impact of redundancy on text mining? Results: We analyze a large-scale EHR corpus and quantify redundancy both in terms of word and semantic concept repetition. We observe redundancy levels of about 30% and non-standard distribution of both words and concepts. We measure the impact of redundancy on two standard text-mining applications: collocation identification and topic modeling. We compare the results of these methods on synthetic data with controlled levels of redundancy and observe significant performance variation. Finally, we compare two mitigation strategies to avoid redundancy-induced bias: (i) a baseline strategy, keeping only the last note for each patient in the corpus; (ii) removing redundant notes with an efficient fingerprinting-based algorithm. aFor text mining, preprocessing the EHR corpus with fingerprinting yields significantly better results. Conclusions: Before applying text-mining techniques, one must pay careful attention to the structure of the analyzed corpora. While the importance of data cleaning has been known for low-level text characteristics (e.g., encoding and spelling), high-level and difficult-to-quantify corpus characteristics, such as naturally occurring redundancy, can also hurt text mining. Fingerprinting enables text-mining techniques to leverage available data in the EHR corpus, while avoiding the bias introduced by redundancy.

description: Understanding the dynamics of research production and collaboration may reveal better strategies for scientific careers, academic institutions and funding agencies. Here we propose the use of a large and multidisciplinar database of scientific curricula in Brazil, namely, the Lattes Platform, to study patterns of scientific production and collaboration. In this database, detailed information about publications and researchers are made available by themselves so that coauthorship is unambiguous and individuals can be evaluated by scientific productivity, geographical location and field of expertise. Our results show that the collaboration network is growing exponentially for the last three decades, with a distribution of number of collaborators per researcher that approaches a power-law as the network gets older. Moreover, both the distributions of number of collaborators and production per researcher obey power-law behaviors, regardless of the geographical location or field, suggesting that the same universal mechanism might be responsible for network growth and productivity.We also show that the collaboration network under investigation displays a typical assortative mixing behavior, where teeming researchers (i.e., with high degree) tend to collaborate with others alike. Finally, our analysis reveals that the distinctive collaboration profile of researchers awarded with governmental scholarships suggests a strong bonus impact on their productivity.

description: In the framework of hierarchical structure formation AGN feedback shapes the galaxy luminosity function. Low luminosity, galaxy-scale double radio sources are ideal targets to investigate the interplay between AGN feedback and star formation. We use VLA and BIMA observations to study the radio continuum emission of NGC 3801 between 1.4 and 112.4 GHz. We find a prominent spectral break at ~10 GHz, where the spectrum steepens as expected from cosmic-ray electron (CRe) ageing. Using the equipartition magnetic field and fitting JP models locally we create a spatially resolved map of the spectral age of the CRe population. The spectral age of tau_int = 2.0 +/- 0.2 Myr agrees within a factor of two with the dynamical age of the expanding X-ray emitting shells. The spectral age varies only little across the lobes, requiring an effective mixing process of the CRe such as a convective backflow of magnetized plasma. The jet termination points have a slightly younger CRe spectral age, hinting at in-situ CRe re-acceleration. Our findings support the scenario where the supersonically expanding radio lobes heat the ISM of NGC 3801 via shock waves, and, as their energy is comparable to the energy of the ISM, are clearly able to influence the galaxy's further evolution.

Competitive size asymmetry, not intensity, is linked to species loss and gain in a native grassland community
Creators: Charlotte Brown

Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2022

Competition is often highlighted as a major force influencing plant species diversity. However, there are multiple facets of competition (e.g., strength, intransitivity, and size asymmetry) that may have independent and differential impacts on diversity, making understanding the degree to which competition structures communities difficult. Unfortunately, field-based experiments that decouple multiple facets of competition are lacking, limiting our ability to test theoretical frameworks and reducing understanding of the actual linkages among competition and coexistence. Here, we experimentally manipulate the size structure of local grassland communities to examine the relative impacts of competitive size asymmetry (i.e., competitive advantage based on relative size) and intensity (i.e., mean effect of neighbors on plant growth) on species loss and gain. Increased competitive size asymmetry was associated with increased species loss and decreased species gain, while no relationship was found between competitive intensity and species loss and gain. Furthermore, the probability of loss was not dependent on a species initial size, suggesting that small species may not always be the losers of size-asymmetric interactions. Instead, loss was dependent on species rarity, where loss was higher for rare species. Overall, these results suggest that competitive size asymmetry may be more important for species loss than intensity in some plant communities and demonstrates the importance of decoupling different aspects of competition to better understand their drivers and ecological consequences.

Fogg, 2003). Este termo resulta da redução da expressão Computer as Persuasive Technologies que pressupõe a existência de uma retórica de tipo tecnológico, no âmbito da qual se estuda e equaciona a interação humano-computador (IHC), numa lógica de persuadido-persuasor. Sendo um dos domínios de atuação da Captology a Educação e os banners produtos tecnológicos com forte componente retórica, é nosso intuito verificar se estes anúncios gráficos mantêm traços persuasivos, numa vertente distinta da comercial. Para testar essa hipótese, apresentaremos os resultados de um estudo que envolveu a análise de banners de páginas web de bibliotecas universitárias e bibliotecas públicas nacionais.

description: The gravitational lensing of Bullet Clusters and early-type galaxies pose serious challenges on the validity of MOND. Recently, Finslerian MOND, a generalization of MOND in the framework of Finsler gravity, has been proposed to explain the mass discrepancy problem of Bullet Cluster 1E 0657\ 558. In this paper, we check the validity of the Finslerian MOND in describing the strong gravitational lensing of early-type galaxies. The investigation on ten strong lenses of the CASTLES samples shows that there is no strong evidence for the existence of dark matter.

description: The near-infrared spectral region is becoming a very useful wavelength range to detect and quantify the stellar population of galaxies. Models are developing to predict the contribution of TP-AGB stars, that should dominate the NIR spectra of populations 0.3 to 2 Gyr old. When present in a given stellar population, these stars leave unique signatures that can be used to detect them unambiguously. However, these models have to be tested in a homogeneous database of star-forming galaxies, to check if the results are consistent with what is found from different wavelength ranges. In this work we performed stellar population synthesis on the nuclear and extended regions of 23 star-forming galaxies to understand how the star-formation tracers in the near-infrared can be used in practice. The stellar population synthesis shows that for the galaxies with strong emission in the NIR, there is an important fraction of young/intermediate population contributing to the spectra, which is probably the ionisation source in these galaxies. Galaxies that had no emission lines measured in the NIR were found to have older average ages and less contribution of young populations. Although the stellar population synthesis method proved to be very effective to find the young ionising population in these galaxies, no clear correlation between these results and the NIR spectral indexes were found. Thus, we believe that, in practice, the use of these indexes is still very limited due to observational limitations.

description: There are two natural ways of thinking about negation: (i) as a form of complementation and (ii) as an operation of reversal, or inversion (to deny that p is to say that things are “the other way around”). A variety of techniques exist to model conception (i), from Euler and Venn diagrams to Boolean algebras. Conception (ii), by contrast, has not been given comparable attention. In this note we outline a twofold geometric proposal, where the inversion metaphor is understood as involving a rotation or a reflection, respectively. These two options are equivalent in classical two-valued logic but they differ significantly in many-valued logics. Here we show that they correspond to two basic sorts of negation operators— Post's and Kleene's—and we provide a simple group-theoretic argument demonstrating their generative power.

description: A fraction of very low mass stars and brown dwarfs are known to be radio active, in some cases producing periodic pulses. Extensive studies of two such objects have also revealed optical periodic variability and the nature of this variability remains unclear. Here we report on multi-epoch optical photometric monitoring of six radio detected dwarfs, spanning the $\sim$M8 - L3.5 spectral range, conducted to investigate the ubiquity of periodic optical variability in radio detected ultracool dwarfs. This survey is the most sensitive ground-based study carried out to date in search of periodic optical variability from late-type dwarfs, where we obtained 250 hours of monitoring, delivering photometric precision as low as $\sim$0.15%. Five of the six targets exhibit clear periodicity, in all cases likely associated with the rotation period of the dwarf, with a marginal detection found for the sixth. Our data points to a likely association between radio and optical periodic variability in late-M/early-L dwarfs, although the underlying physical cause of this correlation remains unclear. In one case, we have multiple epochs of monitoring of the archetype of pulsing radio dwarfs, the M9 TVLM 513-46546, spanning a period of 5 years, which is sufficiently stable in phase to allow us to establish a period of 1.95958 $\pm$ 0.00005 hours. This phase stability may be associated with a large-scale stable magnetic field, further strengthening the correlation between radio activity and periodic optical variability. Finally, we find a tentative spin-orbit alignment of one component of the very low mass binary LP 349-25.

REFERENTIAL OR POETIC? CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDY AND PRACTICE OF AUDIODESCRIPTION AS AN ART FORM

Year: 2019

description: Since 2007, there has been a systematic research conducted in the field of Audiovisual Translation (AVT) at ISCAP/ Porto Polytechnic Institute. At the time we embarked on a research endeavor focusing on audio description (AD), with the intent of systematizing AD guidelines, improving the AD process and reflecting on teaching/learning methods. This study presented at the Media For All conference, Antwerp, in 2009, aims to contribute to this project by focusing on issues linked to the generalized view that AD language should be ‘objective’ and therefore referential in nature, as stated in several guidelines. Indeed, the audio describer is even warned against expressing emotions or personal points of view. How seriously is this advice taken? Is this in fact what we should be teaching and doing? Are there identifiable common language functions in AD and are these clearly portrayed in the existing guidelines? In order to answer these questions, we assess the BBC Guidelines on the provision of television access services; the Audio Description International’s AD Guidelines Draft; the American Council of the Blind’s Audio Description Standards; the now extinct ITC Guidance on Standards for Audio Description; the Audio Description Coalition Guidelines for Audio Description, listing and contrasting their recommendations as to the ‘how’ and the ‘what’ of AD. Next, we compare these findings with randomly selected audio described feature films pertaining to the genres of drama, action, and suspense, namely Blindness, Revolutionary Road, The Happening, Body of Lies, The Eye, and Hancock. After analyzing both AD segments and movie clips in terms of visual rhetoric and Jakobson’s language functions, we propose that described movies stretch the concept of intersemiotic translation.

description: Peter Simons has argued that the expression ‘the universe’ is not a genuine singular term: it can name neither a single, completely encompassing individual, nor a collection of individuals. (It is, rather, a semantically plural term standing equally for every existing object.) I offer reasons for resisting Simons’s arguments on both scores. Simons’s outline and defence of his positive view are  compelling, and the view may well turn out to be the best option that is available all things considered. However, this defence builds on a pars destruens that is reminiscent of van Fraassen’s scepticism concerning the possibility that, to put it in the material mode, the universe is one thing among others.

description: Este artigo reflecte sobre a tradução do texto dramático e as suas especificidades. Lembra o estatuto duplo do texto dramático, considerado como texto escrito (para o leitor) e como experiência audiovisual (para o espectador), analisando as estratégias tradutivas orientadas tanto para um público-leitor como para um público-espectador. Aborda ainda o conceito de potencial dramático, ensaiando uma proposta de subdivisão do conceito que pode ser aplicado tanto à reflexão sobre a tradução do texto dramático como também à sua análise interlinguística.

description: Let $\Z_m$ be the group of residue classes modulo $m$. Let $s(m,n)$ and $c(m,n)$ denote the total number of subgroups of the group $\Z_m \times \Z_n$ and the number of its cyclic subgroups, respectively, where $m$ and $n$ are arbitrary positive integers. We derive asymptotic formulas for the sums $\sum_{m,n\le x} s(m,n)$, $\sum_{m,n\le x} c(m,n)$ and for the corresponding sums restricted to $\gcd(m,n)>1$, i.e., concerning the groups $\Z_m \times \Z_n$ having rank two.

description: In this study, we investigated the significance of ϐ (2)-adrenergic receptor (ϐ (2)AR) in age-related impaired insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis. We characterized the metabolic phenotype of ϐ (2)AR-null C57Bl/6N mice (ϐ (2)AR(-/-)) by performing in vivo and ex vivo experiments. In vitro assays in cultured INS-1E ϐ-cells were carried out in order to clarify the mechanism by which ϐ (2)AR deficiency affects glucose metabolism. Adult ϐ (2)AR(-/-) mice featured glucose intolerance, and pancreatic islets isolated from these animals displayed impaired glucose-induced insulin release, accompanied by reduced expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) γ, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1), and GLUT2. Adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of human ϐ (2)AR rescued these defects. Consistent effects were evoked in vitro both upon ϐ (2)AR knockdown and pharmacologic treatment. Interestingly, with aging, wild-type (ϐ (2)AR(+/+)) littermates developed impaired insulin secretion and glucose tolerance. Moreover, islets from 20-month-old ϐ (2)AR(+/+) mice exhibited reduced density of ϐ (2)AR compared with those from younger animals, paralleled by decreased levels of PPARγ, PDX-1, and GLUT2. Overexpression of ϐ (2)AR in aged mice rescued glucose intolerance and insulin release both in vivo and ex vivo, restoring PPARγ/PDX-1/GLUT2 levels. Our data indicate that reduced ϐ (2)AR expression contributes to the age-related decline of glucose tolerance in mice.

description: A large part of the retail industry focuses on sports. The sports community and the retail companies constitute a market that in the last years has attracted interest from marketing professionals and investors. It owns products and services created for the needs of sports. The purpose of this study is to explore the sports marketing strategy of a sportswear company, Gymshark.The presentation of the strategy implemented through the Instagram platform and the collaboration with the opinion makers of the sports field helped an individual retail startup to develop into a widely recognizable brand in less than a decade. This phenomenon is of great interest as it is directly related to the adoption of sports ideals in the context of corporate identity and social corporate responsibility in the field of the sports products industry. The conclusion of the case study shows that the strategy of promotion through the influence of sports Influencers had positive results for the successful course of the company

description: Clemons and Pagano suggested that certain anomalies in the distribution of birth weights are an artifact of digit bias arising when some hospitals report weight in grams and others in pounds and ounces. In this letter I report yet another administrative source of bias in New York City reports of low birthweight, namely, under-reporting of short-lived infants by hospital staff with incomplete knowledge of Health Code requirements. These infant deaths are often identified by NYC Department of Health inspection of medical records in selected hospitals known to have many high-risk births.

description: Social media emerged users who are characterized as opinion leaders due to their popularity. They cooperated with companies in order to promote products and services, in the context of companies’ marketing strategy. “Influencers” define the way of how possible is to reach audience or new customers in social media. This research investigates the impact of Instagram Influencers endorsements on user–consumers purchase intentions of Instagram social platform. More specifically,how the impact of Instagram Influencer endorsements and promotions on digital consumer behavior affects the way people trust,buy and imitize idols and how the social commerce shopping model rises up through the cooperation of Instagram Influencers with the Brands. This new marketing strategy seems to affect the way how companies understand their consumers needs. The survey is based on 250 Greek Instagram users who were from 18 to above 40 years old. The findings confirm the hypotheses that Influencers do affect the consumers in social media as long as the other variables that were measured. Finally, managerial implications are discussed, along with the interesting research opportunities arising from this work.

description: Today’s test will be on the conditional connective. As always, I will just give you a sentence in English and you will have to symbolize it in the language of sentential logic. Remember that symbolization is a procedure whereby you extract the logical form of a sentence. This is not just a translation procedure and there is no straightforward algorithm for it; it sometimes involves a difficult process of interpretation. But it is crucially important for logic, for the logical techniques that we are going to develop will apply to well-formed formulas of the language of sentential logic and only indirectly to the sentences of English. It will apply, that is, to the logical forms of the sentences of English.
Formation of double glass in binary mixtures of anisotropic particles: Dynamic heterogeneities in rotations and displacements

description: We study glass behavior in a mixture of elliptic and circular particles in two dimensions at low temperatures using an orientation-dependent Lennard-Jones potential. The ellipses have a mild aspect ratio ($\sim 1.2$) and tend to align at low temperatures, while the circular particles play the role of impurities disturbing the ellipse orientations at a concentration of 20%. These impurities have a size smaller than that of the ellipses and attract them in the homeotropic alignment. As a result, the coordination number around each impurity is mostly five or four in glassy states. We realize double glass, where both the orientations and the positions are disordered but still hold mesoscopic order. We find a strong heterogeneity in the flip motions of the ellipses, which sensitively depends on the impurity clustering. The average rotational diffusion constant is determined by rapidly flipping ellipses, which still remain even at low temperatures in our model. In contrast, the non-flip rotations (with angle changes not close to $\pm π$) are mainly caused by the cooperative configuration changes involving many particles. Then, there arises a long-time heterogeneity in the non-flip rotations closely correlated with the dynamic heterogeneity in displacements.
