description: Recent proposal of Wasserstein Index Generation model (WIG) has shown a new direction for automatically generating indices. However, it is challenging in practice to fit large datasets for two reasons. First, the Sinkhorn distance is notoriously expensive to compute and suffers from dimensionality severely. Second, it requires to compute a full $N\times N$ matrix to be fit into memory, where $N$ is the dimension of vocabulary. When the dimensionality is too large, it is even impossible to compute at all. I hereby propose a Lasso-based shrinkage method to reduce dimensionality for the vocabulary as a pre-processing step prior to fitting the WIG model. After we get the word embedding from Word2Vec model, we could cluster these high-dimensional vectors by $k$-means clustering, and pick most frequent tokens within each cluster to form the "base vocabulary". Non-base tokens are then regressed on the vectors of base token to get a transformation weight and we could thus represent the whole vocabulary by only the "base tokens". This variant, called pruned WIG (pWIG), will enable us to shrink vocabulary dimension at will but could still achieve high accuracy. I also provide a \textit{wigpy} module in Python to carry out computation in both flavor. Application to Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU) index is showcased as comparison with existing methods of generating time-series sentiment indices.

description: ABSTRACT: This short article makes the following point. No matter what hypothesis you believe concerning the evolution of hominins, there must be an explanation for how hominins became fully aware of linear time during the Paleolithic era and used this awareness for planning and coordination. Without such awareness, the transition from animal behavior to behavioral modernity would not have been possible. At the moment there are almost no papers that deal with this issue other than my own.
INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT OF THE BOXWOOD LEAFMINER
Creators: name: D'Eustachio, Gabriel John
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 1999

description: Landscape managers need durable, effective, and safe methods for controlling key pests of valued plants in both landscape and nursery settings. The boxwood leafminer (Monarthropalpus flavus, Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) is a serious pest of boxwoods. Boxwoods (Buxus sp.) are a key plant in suburban Maryland landscapes. They are the second most common woody ornamental plant in these settings. In a recent study almost 43% of boxwoods surveyed required treatment for leafminer infestation. Boxwood leafminers also pose a serious problem in historical gardens, such as Longwood Gardens, PA, Dumbarton Oaks and the US National Arboretum in Washington, DC. At the present time, there is a lack of a comprehensive, environmentally sound, management program for the boxwood leafminer. The first step toward an effective management strategy is a better understanding of the boxwood leafminer's life cycle. Over the summers of 1994-1995, leafminer populations were surveyed and life cycles documented and correlated with growing degree days. The first growing degree day developmental chart for boxwood leafminer was developed. Various pesticides were tested in 1995. Different chemicals and application times were evaluated for control of both adults and larvae. At present it appears that application of a translaminar pesticide such as Avid or Merit at adult emergence (growing degree day 352) provides the best control. Resistant cultivars appear to be the most durable, simplest method to control the leafminer. Some cultivars.are highly resistant to boxwood leafminer attack while others are highly susceptible. The third goal of my project was to identify resistant cultivars. This was accomplished by first observing natural variation in leafminer populations in the field. Next I caged ovipositing adults on terminal branches of various cultivars of boxwood, and measured survival of larvae. All cultivars received heavy oviposition with equal frequency, although survival rates were very different. Finally, I tested the hypothesis that leafminers could discriminate among resistant and susceptible cultivars. To test this emerging adults were caged with different cultivars of boxwood and allowed to select plants for oviposition. Plants were then analyzed to determine acceptance of various host plants. I found that although survival on different cultivars can vary dramatically, leafminers were unable to distinguish between suitable and unsuitable host plants.

Based on the temperature dependence of the polar modes we determined the phase transitions temperatures in the studied heterostructures. In the sub-THz frequency range of the Y(XZ)Y spectra, we revealed the coexistence of the Debye-type central peak and soft mode in bi-color BaTiO3/Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 superlattice.

description: We demonstrate that certain supersymmetric Goedel-like universe solutions of supergravity are not solutions of string theory. This is achieved by realizing that supertubes are BPS states in these spaces, and under certain conditions, when wrapping closed timelike curves, some world-volume modes develop negative kinetic terms. Since these universes are homogeneous, this instability takes place everywhere in space-time. We also construct a family of supergravity solutions which locally look like the Goedel universe inside a domain wall made out of supertubes, but have very different asymptotic structure. One can adjust the volume inside the domain wall so there will be no closed timelike curves, and then those spaces seem like perfectly good string backgrounds.

description: Excerpts from the report: In recent years, marked changes have taken place in the fibers available to the consumer in the household textile market. Between 1950 and 1955, cotton poundage used in household items, which accounted for 72 percent of all fibers in 1950, showed relatively little change; poundage of manmade fibers increased by about 50 percent during this period, from 8.5 percent of the total in 1950 to about 18 percent in 1955. Particular interest, therefore, has centered on the extent of substitution for cotton by manmade fibers in the household textile field, as well as acceptance and experience in use of the different fibers by the consumer. The findings reported are based on the responses of 2,709 homemakers and, for the most part, apply only to those items used within the year preceding the survey. Interviews were conducted during June and July 1957. The broad objectives of the study included: 1. Ascertaining the position of cotton, wool, and competitive fibers in each of the above end uses. 2. Examining how and to what extent consumers are reacting to and accepting fibers and fiber blends in each of these household furnishings. 3. Determining consumers' opinions and attitudes toward the fibers used in each item.

description: Biconformal spaces contain the essential elements of quantum mechanics, making the independent imposition of quantization unnecessary. Based on three postulates characterizing motion and measurement in biconformal geometry, we derive standard quantum mechanics, and show how the need for probability amplitudes arises from the use of a standard of measurement. Additionally, we show that a postulate for unique, classical motion yields Hamiltonian dynamics with no measurable size changes, while a postulate for probabilistic evolution leads to physical dilatations manifested as measurable phase changes. Our results lead to the Feynman path integral formulation, from which follows the Schroedinger equation. We discuss the Heisenberg uncertainty relation and fundamental canonical commutation relations.

description: We have conducted multi-epoch EVN observations of the 22.2 GHz water masers towards the high-mass young stellar object in AFGL 5142. With four observing epochs, spanning a time of ~1 year, 12 distinct maser features have been detected, 7 out of these detected in more than one epoch. The positions and the velocities of the VLBI features agree well with those of the emission centers previously identified by means of VLA observations. For a few features, persistent over three or four epochs, accurate values of the proper motions are derived. On the basis of their spatial distribution, the observed maser features can be divided into two groups. A model fit to the positions and velocities of the maser features of Group I, detected in the same region (within ~500 mas) where the massive YSO should be located, demonstrates that these might arise on the surface of a nearly edge-on Keplerian disk, rotating around a massive young stellar object. The maser features of Group II, found at large distances from the YSO (> 1 arcsec), have positions and line-of-sight velocities in agreement with the blue-shifted lobe of a large scale molecular outflow (traced by the HCO+ and SiO emission), and might result from the interaction between the gas flowing away from the young stellar object and the ambient gas of the progenitor molecular core.

description: We propose an algorithm for electrocardiogram (ECG) segmentation using a UNet-like full-convolutional neural network. The algorithm receives an arbitrary sampling rate ECG signal as an input, and gives a list of onsets and offsets of P and T waves and QRS complexes as output. Our method of segmentation differs from others in speed, a small number of parameters and a good generalization: it is adaptive to different sampling rates and it is generalized to various types of ECG monitors. The proposed approach is superior to other state-of-the-art segmentation methods in terms of quality. In particular, F1-measures for detection of onsets and offsets of P and T waves and for QRS-complexes are at least 97.8%, 99.5%, and 99.9%, respectively.

QCD Corrections to $γγ\to ZZ$ at Small Scattering Angles

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: QCD corrections to the electroweak cross section of $γγ\to ZZ$ at high energies and small scattering angles have been calculated. The dominant contributions are due to $t$-channel gluon exchange, i.e. photons dissociate into quark-antiquark pairs giving rise to two colour dipoles which interact through gluons. Corrections resulting from the leading log BFKL amplitude are of the order of a few percent close to the forward region already at the 1 TeV energy range and are rising with the scattering energy. We also considered the helicity non-conserving cases in which the QCD corrections in comparison to the electroweak part of the amplitude strongly grow with energy. The helicity non-conserving scattering process is of particular interest since it is sensitive to the Higgs sector.

Nurturing an ecological perspective in PEI home economics education : a narrative self-study
Creators: name: McIntosh, Sarah Kathleen
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: There is a need for critical and ecological perspectives in education in order for educators to gain the capabilities to respond to the realities of climate change and the resulting calls for Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and sustainability education. The topic of this graduating paper incorporates an ecological perspective in home economics. Eleanore Vaines (1990, 1997) proposes home economists strive towards a reflective professional practice grounded in an ecocentred philosophical orientation. An eco-centred home economics practitioner holds an ecological world view where “everything is related to everything in some way” and the teacher is a learner among learners “empowered to facilitate emancipatory action” (Vaines, 2004a, pp.142- 143). I have searched for ways to interweave the context of my practice with educational theory and work towards a pedagogy that supports the goal of developing of an ecological perspective in home economics. I present my search as narrative self-study where I share my journey of becoming a reflective home economics teacher. After reviewing the literature on an ecological perspective and outlining what it means in terms of curriculum and pedagogy, I critique my practice using three critical incidents to show how a weak understanding of a sense of place and controversial issues were an impediment to implementing ecological material effectively. I subsequently research these two aspects that are related to the implementation of an ecological perspective in more depth in order to make recommendations for home economics educators who might find themselves in a similar situation.

description: Flexoelectricity has garnered much attention owing to its ability to bring electromechanical functionality to non-piezoelectric materials and its nanoscale significance. In order to move towards a more complete understanding of this phenomenon and improve the efficacy of flexoelectric-based devices, it is necessary to quantify microstructural contributions to flexoelectricity. Here we characterize the flexoelectric response of bulk centrosymmetric LaAlO$_3$ crystals with different twin boundary microstructures. We show that twin boundary flexoelectric contributions are comparable to intrinsic contributions at room temperature and enhance the flexoelectric response by ~4x at elevated temperatures. Additionally, we observe time-dependent and non-linear flexoelectric responses associated with strain-gradient-induced twin boundary polarization. These results are explained by considering the interplay between twin boundary orientation, beam-bending strain fields, and pinning site interactions.

description: In developed countries, the typical modes of farmers' cooperative organizations are "German mode", "Japan and South Korea mode" and "American mode". The development of farmers' cooperative organizations in China is the product of need and being needed, with low level of specialization, systematism and industrialization. However, Chinese farmers' cooperative organizations have the advantages of diversification, full supporting and great opportunities of Internet economy and e-commerce environment. Based on that, this paper puts forward the "Chinese mode" for the development of farmers' cooperative organizations in China in the future, that is, the main body of innovation and entrepreneurship will unite, and the other entities of production and industry will follow them.

description: The control of magnetic materials and devices by voltages without electric currents holds the promise of power-saving nano-scale devices. Here we study the temperature-dependent voltage control of the magnetic anisotropy caused by rare-earth (RE) local moments at an interface between a magnetic metal and a non-magnetic insulator, such as Co|(RE)|MgO. Based on a Stevens operator representation of crystal and applied field effects, we find large dominantly quadrupolar intrinsic and field-induced interface anisotropies at room temperature. We suggest improved functionalities of transition metal tunnel junctions by dusting their interfaces with rare earths.

description: With cognitive plasticity being a “sluggish” process, regular long-term engagement in interventions like cognitive training is required to realize the potential that such interventions may confer for cognitive enhancement. A significant challenge associated with extended cognitive training studies is poor adherence and attrition. The current qualitative investigation therefore explored 66 older adult participants’ experiences of, and motivations during, a gamified cognitive training program to understand reasons for (non)adherence. Preferences regarding cognitive training were also explored to provide insight into how such programs might be designed and implemented to maximize motivation and long-term engagement. Using a qualitative description design drawing upon thematic analysis, findings revealed that participants were generally motivated by challenge, novelty, and opportunity to focus. In contrast, repetition, external factors, and negative mindsets detracted from the motivation of participants. Suggestions to improve cognitive training programs to promote long-term engagement included the addition of a large selection of games, an incentive system, mini daily challenges, reminder notifications, and social features. These findings may inform the design of cognitive training programs that accommodate the preferences and needs of older adults, which in turn, may promote adherence and improve intervention effectiveness.

description: P-term inflation is a version of hybrid inflation which naturally appears in some brane inflation models. It was introduced in the framework of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory where superconformal SU(2,2|2) symmetry is broken down to N=2 supersymmetry by the vev of the auxiliary triplet field P. Depending on the direction of this vev, one can get either D-term inflation or F-term inflation with a particular relation between Yukawa and gauge coupling, or a mix of these models. We show that F and D models, before coupling to gravity is included, are related by a change of variables. Coupling of this model to N=1 supergravity breaks this symmetry and introduces a class of P-term models interpolating between D-term and F-term inflation. The difference between these models is determined by the direction of the vector P, which depends on the fluxes in the underlying D3/D7 model of brane inflation. We discuss cosmological consequences of various versions of P-term inflation.

description: The thermodynamic and kinetic anomalies of supercooled liquids are analyzed from the perspective of energy landscapes. A mean field model, a generalized random energy model of liquids is developed, which exhibits a dynamical transition of the onset of slow dynamics at T_0, alteration of the nature of motion from the saddle-to-saddle to minimum-to-minimum motion at T_c, and an ideal glass transition at T_k. If the energy spectrum of the configurations has a low energy tail, the model also allows a thermodynamic liquid-liquid transition at T_l. The liquid-liquid transition of the model is correlated to the kinetic fragile-strong transition accompanied by the anomalous slowing down of motion. Fragility of the system is classified in terms of features of the energy landscape such as ruggedness of the potential energy surface, size of the cooperative motion invoked in a transition from one configuration to another, and energy needed to deform the local structure in the cooperative motion. A simple relation is found between diffusion constant, D and the saddle index of the potential energy surface, f, as $D \propto f^{a}$, where a depends on the size of the cooperative motion.

description: Σκοπός της διατριβής ήταν η αξιολόγηση της ταχύτητας αντίδρασης και της εκρηκτικής δύναμης των κάτω άκρων νεαρών αθλητριών πετοσφαίρισης και η συσχέτιση τους. Συμμετείχαν 14 αθλήτριες πετοσφαίρισης 14-16 ετών.Η εκρηκτική δύναμη μετρήθηκε σε ισοκινητικό δυναμόμετρο στις 30,45 και 60 μοίρες στους εκτείνοντες και καμπτήρες του γονάτου και στα δύο πόδια και η ταχύτητα αντίδρασης με τη φορητή πλατφόρμα εκπαίδευσης που χρησιμοποεί οπτικά στοιχεία.Έγινε ανάλυση συσχέτισης για την εξέταση της σχέσης μεταξύ των μεταβλητών που μετρήθηκαν. Από τα αποτελέσματα προέκυψε σημαντική σχέση μεταξύ της έκρηκτικής δύναμης των ποδιών και της ταχύτητας αντίδρασης,δηλαδή όσο πιο δυνατά πόδια είχε μία αθλήτρια,τόσο καλύτερη ηταν η ταχύτητα αντίδρασης.Στη συσχέτιση,σημαντικό ρόλο έπαιξαν η θέση της κάθε αθλήτριας στο παιχνίδι,τα προπονητικά μέσα που χρησιμοποιούν καθώς και η περιφερειακή όραση και η οπτική οξύτητα τους.Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας θα βοηθήσουν μελλοντικά στην ανίχνευση ταλέντων με υψηλά ή χαμηλά επίπεδα δύναμης και αντίστοιχη ταχύτητα αντίδρασης ,στοιχείαπου είναι πολύ σημαντικά για τη προπονητική. διαδικασία
description: The purpose of the dissertation was to evaluate the reaction speed and explosive power of the lower extremities of young female volleyball athletes and their correlation. 14 volleyball athletes aged 14-16 participated. The explosive force was measured in an isokinetic dynamometer at 30, 45 and 60 degrees on the knee extensions and flexors in both legs and the reaction speed with the portable training platform that uses optical elements. Correlation analysis was performed to examine the relationship between the variables measured. The results showed a significant relationship between the explosive power of the legs and the speed of reaction, witch means that the stronger athlete has better reaction speed. In the correlation, the position of each athlete in the game, the training tools they use as well as their peripheral vision and visual acuity played an important role. The results of the research will help in the future to detect talents with high or low levels of strength and corresponding reaction speed , elements that are very important for coaching procedure

 Ancylis repandana Kennel, 1901: 303. TL: Russia (Amur).
 Diagnosis. The species is easily distinguished from other members of the genus by the long forewing length (20–25 mm). It is superficially similar to A. geminana (Donovan) but differs in the presence of a deeply emarginated, longitudinal streak at the middle of the cell in the forewing. The female genitalia of A. repandana can be distinguished by the presence of two large, different­sized signa
Re­description. Adult: Wingspan 20–25 mm in both sexes. Forewing with costa arched towards apex; small strigulae developed along the costal margin, with thin white curved line from basal patch to apex, separating dark costal part of wing from light colored dorsal part; apex sharply protruded with small blackish apical spot. Hindwing light grayish brown.
Male genitalia (Fig. 11): Uncus moderately long, bifid, with sharp apices. Socii broad, with numerous long hairs. Valva well sclerotized, costa rather straight; ventral margin with two projections, one at base and one near middle, apical potion of valva beyond medioventral projection extremely slender, nearly paralell­sided. Aedeagus thick, narrowed terminally, vesica with a bundle of about 100 cornuti.
Female genitalia (Fig. 16): Papillae anales slipper­shaped, large. Apophyses anteriores thick, long, twice as long as apophyses posteriors; antrum cup­shaped, short. Ductus bursae relatively short, narrow; ductus seminalis originating near junction with corpus bursae. Corpus bursae rounded, large, with two large, different­sized signa.

description: Ferroelectric ceramics (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Ti0.9Zr0.1-xSnx)O3 (x=0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06) were prepared by a sol-gel method. Structural investigation revealed the co-existence of tetragonal (P4mm) and orthorhombic (Pmm2) symmetries at room temperature for the undoped ceramic, while only a tetragonal structure (P4mm) was observed for the doped ceramics. Dielectric measurements indicate a dielectric relaxation process at high temperatures which is essentially related to the hopping of oxygen vacancies. Furthermore, a down shifting of the Curie temperature (TC) with increasing Sn4+ doping rate has been revealed. The temperature profiles of the Raman spectra unveiled the existence of polar nanoregions (PNRs) above the Curie temperature in all ceramics. The ferroelectric properties were found to be related to the microstructure. Electrocaloric effect was investigated in this system that revealed an electrocaloric responsivity of 0.225 10-6 K m/V for the composition with x = 0.04 Sn doping, where other remarkable physical properties were also observed.

description: Full-Waveform airborne laser scanning (ALS) is a novel method for observing the earth surface. It is suitable for the extraction of digital elevation models (DEM) and for estimating, for example buildings, single trees, and wooded areas, as 3D information. In this contribution, the processing of data from a flight survey with Riegl’s LMS-Q560 on 30 July 2008 is described. The accuracy of the extracted data was determined by comparison with official geodata and remote sensing data. For example, DEMs of the state survey office and land use classifications from satellite data were used. These data sets and the flight survey were realized within the Transregional Collaborative Research Centre 32 (CRC-TR32) 'Patterns in Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere-Systems', which monitors patterns and fluxes in the Rurwatershed in Western Germany. Workflow and the results of the ALS data comparison are discussed in detail. ALS is an important method for deriving DEMs. Furthermore, it is capable of determining more information about the earth’s surface in a very accurate way.

description: Bis 1989 verweigerten die Genfer Behörden Sexarbeiterinnen ein Leumundszeugnis mit der Begründung, dass Prostitution einen besonders „unehrenhaften“ Charakter zum Ausdruck bringe. Sexarbeiterinnen brauchten aber ein solches Zeugnis, wenn sie einer anderen Erwerbstätigkeit nachgehen wollten. Die Praktik der Genfer Behörden verfestigte gesellschaftliche Deutungen, die in der Sexarbeit tätige Frauen auf eine Identität als „Prostituierte“ festlegten und fixierten. Denn die Folge der Genfer Regelung war, dass eine berufliche Neu- und Umorientierung für Sexarbeiterinnen massiv erschwert wurde. Im Genfer Verein Aspasie organisierte Sex- und Sozialarbeiterinnen wehrten sich ab Beginn der 1980er-Jahre gegen diese Regelung und erreichten, dass sie 1989 aufgehoben wurde. Für ihren Widerstand war es zentral, „Prostituierte“ als Identitätszuschreibung aufzubrechen und als Erwerbsarbeit sichtbar zu machen. Denn erst die Anerkennung von Prostitution als Arbeit eröffnete aus ihrer Perspektive die Freiheit, sich auch gegen die Sexarbeit und für eine andere Erwerbstätigkeit zu entscheiden.

description: Der Beitrag nimmt eine intersektionalitätstheoretische Perspektive ein, um die spezifische Verflechtung der sozialen Kategorien Geschlecht, Ethnizität und Religion und deren Auswirkung auf die Handlungsspielräume junger muslimischer Studentinnen in Malaysia im Kontext ihrer Bildungsbiografien herauszuarbeiten. Dafür wurden zwölf narrative Interviews mit jungen Musliminnen in Malaysia geführt und in Anlehnung an die Methode des Szenischen Verstehens nach Lorenzer ausgewertet. Zwei der Interviews werden in Form von Einzelfällen vorgestellt. Sie zeigen auf, dass die soziale Kategorie Religion eine relevante Sinnressource sowie Legitimationsquelle für das soziale Handeln der jungen Frauen im Kontext ihrer Bildungsbiografien darstellt.
