description: In the description of \emph{relative} motion in accelerated systems and gravitational fields, inertial and tidal accelerations must be taken into account, respectively. These involve a critical speed that in the first approximation can be simply illustrated in the case of motion in one dimension. For one-dimensional motion, such first-order accelerations are multiplied by $(1-V^2/V_c^2)$, where $V_c=c/\sqrt{2}$ is the critical speed. If the speed of relative motion exceeds $V_c$, there is a sign reversal with consequences that are contrary to Newtonian expectations.

description: Of the variations in the elemental abundance patterns of stars enhanced with $r$-process elements, the variation in the relative actinide-to-lanthanide ratio is among the most significant. We investigate the source of these actinide differences in order to determine whether these variations are due to natural differences in astrophysical sites, or due to the uncertain nuclear properties that are accessed in $r$-process sites. We find that variations between relative stellar actinide abundances is most likely astrophysical in nature, owing to how neutron-rich the ejecta from an $r$-process event may be. Furthermore, if an $r$-process site is capable of generating variations in the neutron-richness of its ejected material, then only one type of $r$-process site is needed to explain all levels of observed relative actinide enhancements.

description: The layout of a retail store directly affects the products to which shoppers are exposed, and ultimately their purchase. Optimizing a layout to increase product visibility can directly benefit both the retailer (via increased revenue) and the shopper (via increased satisfaction). We introduce the Rack Orientation and Curvature Problem, which determines the orientation and curvature of each rack in a layout to maximize the expected marginal impulse profit (after discounting for floor space cost). We account for the dynamic interaction between a walking shopper’s field of regard and a layout of racks filled with products. As several constraints in the optimization model cannot be expressed in a closed analytical form, we propose a particle swarm optimization-based solution approach and, subsequently, conduct a comprehensive experimental study using realistic data. Layouts with either high-acute and straight-to-medium-curved racks, or high-obtuse and high-curved racks, appear to dominate common rack layouts with orthogonal and straight racks; increases of over 23% can be realized depending on the location policy of products. Sensitivity of these solutions to shopper volume, cost of floor space, travel direction, and aspect ratio is also evaluated. Retailers can use our approach to quantitatively evaluate new rack designs or benchmark existing ones.
title: Prostate Cancer Biomarker Identification: A Comparative Study
Creators: name: Jiang, Wenjuan
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: With the current development of proteomics techniques, the discovery of potential molecular biomarkers for early detection of prostate cancer has been greatly improved. In this thesis, we implemented five classifiers including the support vector machine (SVM), Bayesian Classifier, Decision Tree, Random Forest and the Multilayer perceptron (MLP) to test their effectiveness in prostate cancer biomarker identification using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) tissue imaging data. The classifiers were utilized to discriminate cancer mass spectra from normal ones for the data collected at the Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS). There are 94 7 spectra from normal tissues and 27 from cancer tissues (total 974 samples). The pipeline of biomarker identification consists of a series of processing steps including classification using the classifiers. This thesis focused on comparing these five classifiers for the classification task. We also tested several committee machines for the classification by combining different classifiers. Experimental results showed that the Bayesian classifier outperformed the other four classification algorithms and committee machines can provide even better performances.

description: Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) have been used to transport single electrons across long distances of several hundreds of microns. They can potentially be instrumental in the implementation of scalable quantum processors and quantum repeaters, by facilitating interaction between distant qubits. While most of the work thus far has focused on SAW devices in doped GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures, we have developed a method of creating lateral p-n junctions in an undoped heterostructure containing a quantum well, with the expected advantages of having reduced charge noise and increased spin-coherence lifetimes due to the lack of dopant scattering centres. We present experimental observations of SAW-driven single-electron quantised current in an undoped GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure, where single electrons were transported between regions of induced electrons. We also demonstrate pumping of electrons by a SAW across the sub-micron depleted channel between regions of electrons and holes, and observe light emission at such a lateral p-n junction. Improving the lateral confinement in the junction should make it possible to produce a quantised electron-to-hole current and hence SAW-driven emission of single photons.

description: Cloud Gaming is an emerging service that catches growing interest in the research community as well as industry. While the paradigm shift from a game execution on clients to streaming games from the cloud offers a variety of benefits, the new services also require a highly reliable and low latency network to achieve a satisfying Quality of Experience (QoE) for its users. Using a cloud gaming service with high latency would harm the interaction of the user with the game, leading to a decrease in playing performance and thus frustration of players. However, the negative effect of delay on gaming QoE depends strongly on the game content. At a certain level of delay, a slow-paced card game is typically not as delay sensitive as a shooting game. For optimal resource allocation and quality estimation, it is highly important for cloud providers, game developers, and network planners to consider the impact of the game content. This paper contributes to a better understanding of the delay impact on QoE for cloud gaming applications by identifying game characteristics influencing the delay perception of users. In addition, an expert evaluation methodology to quantify these characteristics, as well as a delay sensitivity classification based on a decision tree is presented. The ratings of 14 experts for the quantification indicated an excellent level of agreement which demonstrates the reliability of the proposed method. Additionally, the decision tree reached an accuracy of 86.6 % on determining the delay sensitivity classes which were derived from a large dataset of subjective input quality ratings during a series of experiments.

description: A significant population of nearby stars have strong far-infrared excesses, now known to be due to circumstellar dust in regions analogous to the Kuiper Belt of our solar system, though orders of magnitude more dense. Recent sub-mm and mm imaging of these systems resolves the circumstellar dust and reveals complex structures, often in the form of rings with azimuthal non-axisymmetric variations. This structure might well be due to the presence of embedded brown dwarfs or planets. We have carried out deep adaptive optics imaging of two nearby stars with such asymmetric dust: Epsilon Eridani and Vega. Ten and seven candidate companions were seen in and near the dust rings of Epsilon Eridani and Vega respectively, but second-epoch proper motion measurements indicate that all are background objects. Around these two stars we can thus exclude planetary companions at spatial scales comparable to the radius of the dust structures to a level of MK=24, corresponding to 5 Jupiter masses, for Epsilon Eridani, and MK=19-21, corresponding to 6-8 Jupiter masses, for Vega.

Move, Grove, Dance : Reimagining Minoru Park as a Venue for Diverse Dance Gatherings
Creators: name: Radomsky, Lana
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Situated in the heart of Richmond’s civic precinct, Minoru Park, the city’s largest park, has evolved into a dynamic community hub for recreation, arts, and culture. However, amid the city’s urbanization and a surge in the immigrant population, the park has become detached from the community that surrounds it, losing its connectivity to the urban fabric. The City acknowledges a need for improvement in areas of active living, mental, physical wellness, and a sense of belonging. To address these goals, this project proposes to integrate a site-specific dance design within the landscape. It introduces dance as a transformative element in landscape architecture design methodology, bridging a gap between physical and mental wellbeing. Dance is a potent design tool for unifying spaces through purposeful movement, intention, and communication. Minoru Park is explored as a site that integrates a variety of dance types from different cultural backgrounds to accommodate an active and diverse sense of belonging. The vision aims to be an inclusive space for all comfort levels, one that instills the value of dance in our everyday lives.

description: The objective of this paper is to assess the absorption level of funds disbursed under the 2007-2013 RDP to municipal government units and the impact of financial determinants on the amount of funds accessed. Intensive investment activities were have been taken in the Polish rural areas over the recent years. Many of them were implemented with the use of the EU subsidies, including those disbursed under the 2007-2013 RDP. The purpose of the RDP was to support transformation not only in the agriculture sector, but also on rural areas, especially as regards technical and socio-economic infrastructure. In the Wielkopolskie Voivodeship, a total of 463 projects were implemented, amounting to PLN 722 million. Environmental infrastructure projects represented the largest share in the total amount although socio-economic projects were much more numerous. The municipalities under consideration differed in levels of the EU funds accessed. This means the beneficiary’s financial autonomy is a crucial determinant, especially if the EU funds are disbursed as a refund.In less wealthy municipalities, that solution may effectively constrain access to large amounts of aid. Also, by allocating funds to other investments, the municipalities restrict their investment potential and often become unable to implement subsequent investment projects.

description: The aim of this article is to demonstrate the useful role that can be played by spectropolarimetric observations of young and evolved emission line stars that analyse the linearly polarized component in their spectra. At the time of writing, this demonstration has to be made on the basis of optical data since there is no common-user infrared facility, in operation, that offers the desired combination of spectral resolution and sensitivity. Here we focus on what can be learned from linear spectropolarimetry alone at reasonably high spectral resolution and at $10^3 < $S/N$ < 10^4$. And we remind that the near infrared (1--2 micron) has the potential to out-perform the optical as a domain to work in because of the greatly reduced interstellar obscuration at these wavelengths. This point has been reached at a time when theory, exploiting flexible Monte Carlo methods, is fast becoming a powerful tool. In short we have the complex phenomena, and the rise of the modelling capability to match -- good data are the missing link.

description: Considerable efforts to create a professional and effective rural extension service in the Republic of Moldova have been made in the last decade. Unfortunately, there are currently limited institutional connections between the components of knowledge in agriculture in Moldova and information system, for example, between institutions of agricultural research, extension and education/ training. These three components work independently, while collaboration is limited to involvement of researchers and professors as consultants in shortterm projects of the extension service. Therefore, the Republic of Moldova lacks a permanent platform for communication and cooperation, aimed at serving the common needs of the private sector. Agricultural science and innovative policy development should stimulate obtaining new knowledge, highly productive biological material, intensify innovation activities in agro-industrial sector, while creating conditions for absorbing local and foreign innovations through the range of measures, such as: research, development and innovation (RDI) activities focused on priority directions of the sector development; stimulating innovative scientific activities in order to create new varieties and hybrids of plants and highly productive breeds of animals, applying advanced farming and processing of raw materials; promotin the creation and implementation of a system of economic incentives for attracting and absorbing innovations in the sector; deepening economic research to ensure scientific support for the sustainable development of the agribusiness sector; modernizing the training and retraining of the staff from the agricultural education sector and adjustment of the quality of education to market requirements; supporting the development of technological transfer and extension network in agro-industrial sector (Government of the Republic of Moldova, 2008).

description: We report a simple and reproducible method to fabricate two metallic electrodes made of different metals with a nanometer-sized gap. These electrodes are fabricated by defining a pair of gold electrodes lithographically and electrodepositing a second metal onto one of them. The method enables the fabrication of pairs of metallic electrodes that exhibit distinct magnetic properties or work functions. The utility of this technique is demonstrated by making single-electron tunneling devices incorporating 2-nm gold nanocrystals.

description: We consider a fast, data-sparse directional method to realize matrix-vector products related to point evaluations of the Helmholtz kernel. The method is based on a hierarchical partitioning of the point sets and the matrix. The considered directional multi-level approximation of the Helmholtz kernel can be applied even on high-frequency levels efficiently. We provide a detailed analysis of the almost linear asymptotic complexity of the presented method. Our numerical experiments are in good agreement with the provided theory.

description: The peripheral non-centrally located Prešov region (NUTS 3) from North-Eastern Slovakia (Fig. 1) is, according to the OECD methodology on urban-rural typology, a “significantly rural (intermediate) region”. Its territory consists of 13 smaller spatial units – predominantly and/or significantly rural LAU1 territories – districts of which centres (district towns) were selected for the comparative analysis of the changes in their networks of usually relatively longterm stable direct public transport connections. The changes between 2003 and 2017 were studied based on the existence and frequency of direct transport connections (transport accessibility) between them and other district towns in Slovakia. The presented outcomes show the influence of a top-down governmental decision (zero-fare railway public transport for selected categories of passengers) and other transport related issues (changes in modal split, transport infrastructure and organisation of transport) on the new, restructured and mainly weakened pattern of rural centres public transport networking shape and quality.

description: In this paper we present a deployed, scalable optical character recognition (OCR) system, which we call Rosetta, designed to process images uploaded daily at Facebook scale. Sharing of image content has become one of the primary ways to communicate information among internet users within social networks such as Facebook and Instagram, and the understanding of such media, including its textual information, is of paramount importance to facilitate search and recommendation applications. We present modeling techniques for efficient detection and recognition of text in images and describe Rosetta's system architecture. We perform extensive evaluation of presented technologies, explain useful practical approaches to build an OCR system at scale, and provide insightful intuitions as to why and how certain components work based on the lessons learnt during the development and deployment of the system.

Light-induced switching in the back-gated organic transistors with built-in conduction channel

description: We report on observation of a light-induced switching of the conductance in the back-gated organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) with built-in conduction channel. In the studied devices, the built-in channel is formed owing to the self-sensitized photo-oxidation of rubrene surface. In the dark, the back gate controls the charge injection from metal contacts into the built-in channel: the high-current ON state corresponds to zero or negative back-gate voltage; the low-current OFF state - to a positive back-gate voltage that blocks the Schottky contacts. Illumination of the OFET in the OFF state with a short pulse of light switches the device into the ON state that persists in the dark for days. The OFF state can be restored by cycling the back gate voltage. The observed effect can be explained by screening of the back-gate electric field by the charges photo-generated in the bulk of organic semiconductor.

description: Objective. Adhering to current IFCC recommendations, we calculated upper 97.5 % reference limits for serum tumor markers. Material and methods. Serum samples from 498 healthy individuals from the Nordic reference interval project (NORIP) were investigated for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA125 and MUC1 (episialin, CA15.3) using in‐house immunofluorometric assays and, for α‐foetoprotein (AFP), a PerkinElmer Life Sciences assay, neuron‐specific enolase (NSE) using an in‐house immunoradiometric assay and CA19.9 using a Beckman Access assay. All assays participate in external quality assessment programs. Results. CEA concentrations increased with age and smoking. Upper reference limits for non‐smokers were 3.59 µg/L at 50 years and 4.12 µg/L at 70 years. CA125 concentrations were age‐independent and the upper reference limit was 35.8 kU/L. MUC1 increased with age and body mass index (BMI). Upper reference limits were 31.7 kU/L at 40 years and BMI 24, 37.5 kU/L at 70 years and BMI 24, and 33.7 kU/L at 40 years and BMI 30. AFP increases with age, and the upper reference limits were 3.82 kU/L at 20 years and 8.70 kU/L at 60 years. An upper reference limit for NSE was 8.91 µg/L in non‐smokers; smokers exhibited significantly lower levels. The upper reference limit for individuals expressing CA19.9 was 28.3 kU/L. Conclusions. For AFP, CA125 and CA19.9, the reference levels obtained were close to previously reported reference ranges. Smoking and age were confirmed as covariates for CEA. The associations between MUC1 with age and BMI and between NSE and smoking have not been reported previously.
