Year: 1977

description: Each of the methods that are to be or have been discussed this morning deal with the methods and approaches to provide a pool of information which, when accurately interpretated, really indicate one of three or four things. First, a list of diagnoses to be considered. And if you have a list, then obviously you need to find out more before you can decide which one on the list is the diagnosis. Secondly, it may indicate a provisional diagnosis, which most of us operate by. You know, we make a judgment decision aand then go. Third, the diagnosis, or the right one or the right two or however many things are involved. Actually a diagnosis in clinical practice is truly an intermediate goal. The ultimate goal, it seems to me in clinical practice, is to use the diagnostic decision to determine a rational and economically feasible management or therapeutic scheme to solve whatever the diagnostic problem is.

Characteristics of Early Community College Dropouts
Creators: name: Crosta, Peter Michael
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2013
Subjects: Community college students--Education
Community colleges

description: Students who drop out of community college are expensive. Over a five-year period, federal, state, and local authorities spent about $4 billion on community college students who began as first-time, full-time, degree-seeking students but did not return for a second year of school (Schneider and Yin, 2011). In an era where the policy focus is on accountability and efficiency, improving first-year persistence is a critical goal. For colleges to develop effective dropout prevention strategies, it is necessary to have a clear picture of who these early dropouts are. This report aims to identify distinguishing characteristics of this group by analyzing six years of transcript data on 14,429 first-time college students who in 2005 and 2006 enrolled at one of five community colleges in a single state. Of these students, 28 percent never returned to the same college after their first semester. This outcome represents the most common enrollment and exit pattern among students in the sample—more students dropped out en masse after the first term than at any other time. The majority of these students never attended any college again. This analysis departs from other work on dropout and persistence in two important ways: It includes part-time students (who constitute a majority of first-time enrollees at community colleges), and it focuses on very early dropouts—those who enrolled for one term of study but never returned to the same college for another term. For the purposes of this report, these early dropouts are compared with a group called early persisters (67 percent of students in the sample)—those who enrolled at least twice in the first four enrollment terms (fall, spring, summer, and fall).

The United Nations Peacekeeping and Rule of Law Reform in Post-Conflict Societies
Creators: name: Maturu, Sweta
Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: subject: Political science
subject: FOS: Political science
subject: International law
subject: Dispute resolution (Law)

description: The United Nations frequently engages in peacekeeping activities in post-conflict societies in order to build and sustain peace. A crucial component of the durability of peace is the rule of law. While there is extensive empirical literature on the effect of UN peacekeeping on the durability of peace in a post-conflict setting, there is little literature that empirically examines whether UN peacekeeping can improve the rule of law in a post-conflict state. This study uses data to determine whether UN peacekeeping has a positive effect on the quality of rule of law in post-conflict settings. Using regression and matching analysis, this study does not find evidence that peacekeeping influences the rule of law in a post-conflict setting in either a positive or negative direction. Even so, the "non-findings" of this study have implications for policy makers who wish to have post-conflict peace building efforts in order to improve the rule of law.

The Clinical Examination of the Bovine Animal
Creators: name: Williams, Eric I.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1977

description: The clinician's primary objective in dealing with a sick animal is to make a diagnosis of the ailment as accurately and as soon as possible so that suitable treatment can be initiated. Accurate diagnosis can only be achieved by a careful and systematic examination of the patient. It cannot be overemphasized that a thorough knowledge of, and the ability to interpret, the normal animal will greatly enhance the clinician's ability to recognize the abnormal state. The recognition of clinical symptoms which, under field conditions, are often not present in classical textbook style, can only be accomplished by the astute and patient observation of the sick animal. The ability to translate the recognition of disease symptoms to a positive diagnosis of the ailment also depends on a thorough knowledge of the major features of -the disease. A basic understanding of animal behavior is a decided asset. This paper is a brief review of the methods available to the practicing veterinarian for the examination of the bovine organ systems, with special emphasis on the gastrointestinal tract.

Total reaction cross section $σ_R$ for Ne isotopes on 12C target have been calculated at incident energy 240 MeV. The results are compared with the experimental data and with the recent theoretical study [W. Horiuchi et al., Phys. Rev. C, 86, 024614 (2012)]. Study of $σ_R$ using deformed densities have shown a good agreement with the data. We have also predicted total reaction cross section $σ_R$ for Ne, Mg and Si isotopes as projectiles and 12C as target at different incident energies.

Off-axis irradiation and the polarization of broad emission lines in active galactic nuclei

description: The STOKES Monte Carlo radiative transfer code has been extended to model the velocity dependence of the polarization of emission lines. We use STOKES to present improved modelling of the velocity-dependent polarization of broad emission lines in active galactic nuclei. We confirm that off-axis continuum emission can produce observed velocity dependencies of both the degree and position angle of polarization. The characteristic features are a dip in the percentage polarization and an S-shaped swing in the position angle of the polarization across the line profile. Some differences between our STOKES results and previous modelling of polarization due to off-axis emission are noted. In particular we find that the presence of an offset between the maximum in line flux and the dip in the percentage of polarization or the central velocity of the swing in position angle does not necessarily imply that the scattering material is moving radially. Our model is an alternative scenario to the equatorial scattering disk described by Smith et al. (2005). We discuss strategies to discriminate between both interpretations and to constrain their relative contributions to the observed velocity-resolved line and polarization.

description: We study a hybrid system formed from an optomechanical resonator and a cavity mode strongly coupled to an excitonic transition inside a quantum well. We show that due to the mixing of cavity photon and exciton states, the emergent quasiparticles - polaritons - possess coupling to the mechanical mode of both dispersive and dissipative nature. We calculate the occupancies of polariton modes and reveal bistable behavior, which deviates from conventional Kerr nonlinearity or dispersive coupling cases due to the dissipative coupling. The described system serves as a good candidate for future polaritonic devices and solid state quantum information processing.

An optimal fuzzy-PI force/motion controller to increase industrial robot autonomy

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013

description: This paper presents a method for robot self-recognition and self-adaptation through the analysis of the contact between the robot end effector and its surrounding environment. Often, in off-line robot programming, the idealized robotic environment (the virtual one) does not reflect accurately the real one. In this situation, we are in the presence of a partially unknown environment (PUE). Thus, robotic systems must have some degree of autonomy to overcome this situation, especially when contact exists. The proposed force/motion control system has an external control loop based on forces and torques exerted on the robot end effector and an internal control loop based on robot motion. The external control loop is tested with an optimal proportional integrative (PI) and a fuzzy-PI controller. The system performance is validated with real-world experiments involving contact in PUEs.

Liberating the Press: The Political Economy and Intellectual Forces Behind the Demise of the Licensing Act

description: This paper explores the intellectual, political, and economic dynamics that led to one of the most significant events in the history of the press: the demise of the Licensing Act in 1695. It argues that the downfall of the Licensing Act in 1695 was primarily driven not by shifts in arguments but by transformations in the political economy and structure, which facilitated a more favorable reception of longstanding arguments and information. The most significant changes in the political economy that altered the perception of press regulations were the shifting views on the Crown's authority to grant exclusive economic privileges and the establishment of public credit institutions, such as the Bank of England, after 1694. These institutions relied on government transparency and the freer and broader dissemination of reliable information. Consequently, the restraints imposed by the Licensing Act became more detrimental than advantageous, rendering long-standing intellectual arguments against press restraints more favorably received.

Association of the "Rat Tail" Syndrome with Bovine Papular Stomatitis in Feedlot Cattle
Creators: name: Bechtol, David T.
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 1976

description: A problem designated as the "rat tail" syndrome was widespread in high plains feedlots in the late summer of 1975 and in 1976 and has become a matter of economic importance to the cattle feeder. The "rat tail" steer is one that has lost the switch in his tail, a warning that the animal should be culled from a pen of feedlot cattle as a potentially poor performer. "Rat tail" is an external sign of disturbed digestive function. Chronics that fail to recover from an acute infection such as bovine viral diarrhea may develop rat tails; however, such incidence seldom exceeds one percent of a pen. When five to ten percent of the cattle in a feedlot develop rat tails, the situation presents a different problem called the "rat tail syndrome."

description: The veterinary practitioner today is faced with a number of conditions which affect his daily operations that those of us in practice 20 years ago, or even 10 to 15 years ago, did not even consider. The most important of these are: 1. Loss of drugs routinely used in practice for many years; 2. The long delays in approval of new products due to increased demands by FDA for safety and effectiveness data; 3. In food animal medicine, the public announcements of dangers from residues in animal source food products and the practitioner's moral and legal responsibilities to preyent residues; 4. The great changes in livestock operations where the size of the operation necessitates first diagnosis, and most treatment, by employees at the livestock operation; and 5. The public awareness of malpractice and the trend toward many more court claims against veterinary practitioners.

description: The minimum error entropy (MEE) criterion has been successfully used in fields such as parameter estimation, system identification and the supervised machine learning. There is in general no explicit expression for the optimal MEE estimate unless some constraints on the conditional distribution are imposed. A recent paper has proved that if the conditional density is conditionally symmetric and unimodal (CSUM), then the optimal MEE estimate (with Shannon entropy) equals the conditional median. In this study, we extend this result to the generalized MEE estimation where the optimality criterion is the Renyi entropy or equivalently, the α-order information potential (IP).

While the higher $j_{\rm c}$ can be understood in terms of a stronger pinning of the flux vortices at the Au nanoparticles, the enhanced $T_{\rm c}$ is still puzzling. In the present study, we determined the microscopic magnetic penetration profiles and the corresponding London penetration depths $λ_{\rm L}$ in the Meissner state of optimally doped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ thin films with and without Au nanoparticles by low-energy muon spin rotation. By Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, we show that the Au nanoparitcles are distributed over the whole thickness of the thin-film samples. The superfluid density $n_{\rm s} \propto 1/λ_{\rm L}^2$ was found to increase in the films containing Au nanoparticles. We attribute this increase of $n_{\rm s}$ to a reduction of the defect density possibly due to defect condensation at the Au nanoparticles.

description: Background: Recent assays for individual-specific genome-wide DNA methylation profiles have enabled epigenome-wide association studies to identify specific CpG sites associated with a phenotype. Computational prediction of CpG site-specific methylation levels is important, but current approaches tackle average methylation within a genomic locus and are often limited to specific genomic regions. Results: We characterize genome-wide DNA methylation patterns, and show that correlation among CpG sites decays rapidly, making predictions solely based on neighboring sites challenging. We built a random forest classifier to predict CpG site methylation levels using as features neighboring CpG site methylation levels and genomic distance, and co-localization with coding regions, CGIs, and regulatory elements from the ENCODE project, among others. Our approach achieves 91% -- 94% prediction accuracy of genome-wide methylation levels at single CpG site precision. The accuracy increases to 98% when restricted to CpG sites within CGIs. Our classifier outperforms state-of-the-art methylation classifiers and identifies features that contribute to prediction accuracy: neighboring CpG site methylation status, CpG island status, co-localized DNase I hypersensitive sites, and specific transcription factor binding sites were found to be most predictive of methylation levels. Conclusions: Our observations of DNA methylation patterns led us to develop a classifier to predict site-specific methylation levels that achieves the best DNA methylation predictive accuracy to date. Furthermore, our method identified genomic features that interact with DNA methylation, elucidating mechanisms involved in DNA methylation modification and regulation, and linking different epigenetic processes.
Practical and Theoretical Considerations Concerning Treatment of Bacterial Pneumonia in Feedlot Cattle, With Special Reference to Antimicrobic Therapy

description: When effective antimicrobic therapy can be initiated on the first day that clinical signs are evident to an experienced observer and continued for 48 hours after fever, dyspnea and toxemia have abated, and if appropriate shelter, nutrition and nursing care are provided, mortality from acute, uncomplicated bacterial pneumonia in feedlot cattle will be negligible. Mortality is increased when disease detection is inadequate, resulting in delayed treatment, when ineffective antimicrobics are utilized, or when inappropriate dosages, routes of administration or treatment intervals are selected, and when treatment is irregularly administered or prematurely terminated. Failure to promptly reinstitute treatment when relapses occur is often a factor in excessive mortality. Sick cattle should be kept dry and provided with shelter from cold winds or hot sun. Sick cattle penned together should be of similar size and should not be overcrowded. At least 12 linear inches and preferably 24 linear inches of feed bunk space should be provided per animal.

description: More and more, new ways of interaction between humans and robots are desired, something that allow us to program a robot in an intuitive way, quickly and with a high-level of abstraction from the robot language. In this paper is presented a CAD-based system that allows users with basic skills in CAD and without skills in robot programming to generate robot programs from a CAD model of a robotic cell. When the CAD model reproduces exactly the real scenario, the system presents a satisfactory performance. On the contrary, when the CAD model does not reproduce exactly the real scenario or the calibration process is poorly done, we are dealing with uncertain (unstructured environment). In order to minimize or eliminate the previously mentioned problems, it was introduced sensory feedback (force and torque sensing) in the robotic framework. By controlling the end-effector pose and specifying its relationship to the interaction/contact forces, robot programmers can ensure that the robot maneuvers in an unstructured environment, damping possible impacts and also increasing the tolerance to positioning errors from the calibration process. Fuzzy-PI reasoning was used as a force control technique. The effectiveness of the proposed approach was evaluated in a series of experiments.

description: ODS steels based on yttrium oxide have been suggested as potential fusion reactor wall materials due to their observed radiation resistance properties. Presumably this radiation resistance can be related to the interaction of the particle with vacancies,self-interstitial atoms (SIAs) and other radiation damage debris. Density functional theory has been used to investigate this at the atomic scale. Four distinct interfaces, some based on HRTEM observations, between iron and yttrium oxide were investigated. It is been shown that the Y$_2$O$_3$-Fe interface acts as a strong trap with long-range attraction for both interstitial and vacancy defects, allowing recombination without altering the interface structure. The catalytic elimination of defects without change to the microstructure explains the improved behaviour of ODS steels with respect to radiation creep and swelling.

description: The impact of chemotherapy on the practice of veterinary medicine cannot be overstated. It resulted in a very strong link between the disciplines of biochemistry, microbiology, molecular biology, and pharmacology. For many years following the discovery of the clinical value of antimicrobial agents, production and usage far surpassed scientific research and development in the field of antimicrobial agents due to their immediate and overwhelming acceptance. It is no wonder that antibiotics and sulfonamides have often been misused by the veterinarian and physician as well as the agriculturalists.

description: Peculiar velocities, obtained from direct distance measurements, are data of choice to achieve constrained simulations of the Local Universe reliable down to a scale of a few Megaparsecs. Unlike redshift surveys, peculiar velocities are direct tracers of the underlying gravitational field as they trace both baryonic and dark matter. This paper presents the first attempt to use solely observational peculiar velocities to constrain cosmological simulations of the nearby universe. In order to set up Initial Conditions, a Reverse Zel'dovich Approximation (RZA) is used to displace constraints from their positions at z=0 to their precursors' locations at higher redshifts. An additional new feature replaces original observed radial peculiar velocity vectors by their full 3D reconstructions provided by the Wiener-Filter (WF) estimator. Subsequently, the Constrained Realization of Gaussian fields technique (CR) is applied to build various realizations of the Initial Conditions. The WF/RZA/CR method is first tested on realistic mock catalogs built from a reference simulation similar to the Local Universe. These mocks include errors on peculiar velocities, on data-point positions and a large continuous zone devoid of data in order to mimic galactic extinction. Large scale structures are recovered with a typical accuracy of 5 Megaparsecs/h in position, the best realizations reaching a 2-3 Mpc/h precision, the limit imposed by the RZA linear theory. Then, the method is applied to the first observational radial peculiar velocity catalog of the project Cosmicflows. This paper is a proof of concept that the WF/RZA/CR method can be applied to observational peculiar velocities to successfully build constrained Initial Conditions.

description: We consider the (process-independent) Green function for the BFKL equation in the next-to-leading order approximation, with running coupling, and explain how, within the semi-classical approximation, it is related to Green function of the Airy equation. The unique Green function is obtained from a combination of its required ultraviolet behaviour compatible with asymptotic freedom and an infrared limit phase imposed by the non-perturbative sector of QCD. We show that at sufficiently large gluon transverse momenta the corresponding gluon density matches that of the DGLAP analysis, whereas for relatively small values of the gluon transverse momentum the gluon distribution is sensitive to the Regge poles, whose positions are determined both by the non-pertubative QCD dynamics and physics at large transverse momenta.

description: Learning probabilistic logic programming languages is receiving an increasing attention and systems are available for learning the parameters (PRISM, LeProbLog, LFI-ProbLog and EMBLEM) or both the structure and the parameters (SEM-CP-logic and SLIPCASE) of these languages. In this paper we present the algorithm SLIPCOVER for "Structure LearnIng of Probabilistic logic programs by searChing OVER the clause space". It performs a beam search in the space of probabilistic clauses and a greedy search in the space of theories, using the log likelihood of the data as the guiding heuristics. To estimate the log likelihood SLIPCOVER performs Expectation Maximization with EMBLEM. The algorithm has been tested on five real world datasets and compared with SLIPCASE, SEM-CP-logic, Aleph and two algorithms for learning Markov Logic Networks (Learning using Structural Motifs (LSM) and ALEPH++ExactL1). SLIPCOVER achieves higher areas under the precision-recall and ROC curves in most cases.
