description: Over the past few years, there has been a considerable spread of microarray technology in many biological patterns, particularly in those pertaining to cancer diseases like leukemia, prostate, colon cancer, etc. The primary bottleneck that one experiences in the proper understanding of such datasets lies in their dimensionality, and thus for an efficient and effective means of studying the same, a reduction in their dimension to a large extent is deemed necessary. This study is a bid to suggesting different algorithms and approaches for the reduction of dimensionality of such microarray datasets. This study exploits the matrix-like structure of such microarray data and uses a popular technique called Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) to reduce the dimensionality, primarily in the field of biological data. Classification accuracies are then compared for these algorithms. This technique gives an accuracy of 98%.

description: We review recent exact results for the free expansion of impenetrable bosons on one-dimensional lattices, after switching off a confining potential. When the system is initially in a superfluid state, far from the regime in which the Mott-insulator appears in the middle of the trap, the momentum distribution of the expanding bosons rapidly approaches the momentum distribution of noninteracting fermions. Remarkably, no loss in coherence is observed in the system as reflected by a large occupation of the lowest eigenstate of the one-particle density matrix. In the opposite limit, when the initial system is a pure Mott insulator with one particle per lattice site, the expansion leads to the emergence of quasicondensates at finite momentum. In this case, one-particle correlations like the ones shown to be universal in the equilibrium case develop in the system. We show that the out-of-equilibrium behavior of the Shannon information entropy in momentum space, and its contrast with the one of noninteracting fermions, allows to differentiate the two different regimes of interest. It also helps in understanding the crossover between them.

description: Recent natural gas price increases have resulted in acutely higher fertilizer prices. Profit and environmental concerns have increased interest in identifying optimal nitrogen application rates. Previous estimates of the profit maximizing nitrogen rate (PMNR) have been estimated assuming that price is fixed and exogenous of yield. We construct a model in which price is correlated to yield shocks, and estimate the PMNR. We find that incorporating correlation information systematically affects the PMNR, however, these effects are small.

Parenting in Chinese immigrant families
Creators: name: Chan, Sing Mei
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study attempted to link parental beliefs to parenting behaviors and adolescent outcomes within specific domains. The study also explored whether parental warmth moderated the relationship between parenting behavior and adolescent outcomes. A sample of 60 Chinese immigrant families from Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan participated in the study. One primary parent and one adolescent aged between 13 and 18 from each family answered surveys related to parental goals, parenting behaviors and adolescent competence in the moral, prudential and learning/academic domains. Findings offer confirmatory evidence for associations between parental goals and parenting behaviors and between parental goals and adolescent competence in all domains. Parenting behaviors were related to adolescent competence in the learning/academic domain only. No mediating effects of parenting behaviors nor moderating effects of parental warmth were found. Results are discussed in terms of Smetana's (1997) notion of domain-specificity, parental goal-parenting behavior congruency (Hastings & Grusec, 1998), and age and cultural relevance in regards to the chain associations found between parental goal, parenting behavior and adolescent outcomes.

description: We have identified a quadruple system with two close eclipsing binaries in TESS data. The object is unresolved in Gaia and appears as a single source at parallax 1.08~$\pm$0.01 mas. Both binaries have observable primary and secondary eclipses and were monitored throughout TESS Cycle 1 (sectors 1-13), falling within the TESS Continuous Viewing Zone. In one eclipsing binary (P = 5.488 d), the smaller star is completely occluded by the larger star during the secondary eclipse; in the other (P = 5.674 d) both eclipses are grazing. Using these data, spectroscopy, speckle photometry, SED analysis and evolutionary stellar tracks, we have constrained the masses and radii of the four stars in the two eclipsing binaries. The Li I EW indicates an age of 10-50 Myr and, with an outer period of $858^{+7}_{-5}$ days, our analysis indicates this is one of the most compact young 2+2 quadruple systems known.

description: The incidence of rural poverty in Pakistan increased during the late 1990s after having declined during the 1980s and early 1990s. A number of structural factors have been identified as contributing to rural poverty in Pakistan. Among them are low levels of health and education spending and the unequal of farmland distribution. These structural factors help explain the levels of poverty in Pakistan, but not the increase in poverty in the late 1990s. One hypothesis is that the increase in rural poverty is the result of an adverse trend in world commodity prices, particularly cotton, a major commercial crop, and other agricultural commodities such as wheat, rice, and sugar. The overall objective of this paper is to measure the impact of changes in world commodity prices on poverty in rural Pakistan, with particular focus on cotton prices and the main cotton producing districts of Punjab and Sindh provinces.

description: This study examines the J-curve phenomenon for the U.S. agricultural trade and compares the effect on agricultural trade relative to the U.S. non-agricultural trade. For this purpose, the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model is adopted to estimate bilateral trade data between the U.S. and her three major trading partners ¦¡ Japan, Canada and Mexico. We find little evidence of the J-curve for the U.S. agricultural trade with Japan, Canada and Mexico. For the non-agricultural trade, on the other hand, the behavior of the U.S. trade with industrialized economies such as Japan and Canada follows the J-curve, but not with developing economies such as Mexico.

description: The accuracy of Monte Carlo simulations in reproducing the scientific performance of space telescopes (e.g. angular resolution) is mandatory for a correct design of the mission. A brand-new Monte Carlo simulator of the Astrorivelatore Gamma ad Immagini LEggero (AGILE)/Gamma-Ray Imaging Detector (GRID) space telescope, AGILESim, is built using the customizable Bologna Geant4 Multi-Mission Simulator (BoGEMMS) architecture and the latest Geant4 library to reproduce the instrument performance of the AGILE/GRID instrument. The Monte Carlo simulation output is digitized in the BoGEMMS postprocessing pipeline, according to the instrument electronic read-out logic, then converted into the onboard data handling format, and finally analyzed by the standard mission on-ground reconstruction pipeline, including the Kalman filter, as a real observation in space. In this paper we focus on the scientific validation of AGILESim, performed by reproducing (i) the conversion efficiency of the tracker planes, (ii) the tracker charge readout distribution measured by the on-ground assembly, integration, and verification activity, and (iii) the point-spread function of in-flight observations of the Vela pulsar in the 100 MeV - 1 GeV energy range. We measure an in-flight angular resolution (FWHM) for Vela-like point sources of $2.0^{+0.2}_{-0.3}$ and $0.8^{+0.1}_{-0.1}$ degrees in the 100 - 300 and 300 - 1000 MeV energy bands, respectively. The successful cross-comparison of the simulation results with the AGILE on-ground and in-space performance validates the BoGEMMS framework for its application to future gamma-ray trackers (e.g. e-ASTROGAM and AMEGO).

description: The Industries Assistance Commission and the Green Paper on Rural Policy support different protection strategies. Both strategies allow the achievement of a pattern of protection consistent with Pareto-efficiency. The Green Paper on Manufacturing proposed an approach to tariffs that would perpetuate inefficient resource allocation. The argument of the lAC and the Green Papers on protection policy is examined. A programme of across the board reductions in protection leading to free trade, modified for terms of trade effects, is suggested. It is also argued that initial increases in assistance for low cost industries are not inconsistent with such a programme.
Resolving the puzzle of sound propagation in liquid helium at low temperatures

description: Experimental data suggests that, at temperatures below 1 K, the pressure in liquid helium has a cubic dependence on density. Thus the speed of sound scales as a cubic root of pressure. Near a critical pressure point, this speed approaches zero whereby the critical pressure is negative, thus indicating a cavitation instability regime. We demonstrate that to explain this dependence, one has to view liquid helium as a mixture of three quantum Bose liquids: dilute (Gross-Pitaevskii-type) Bose-Einstein condensate, Ginzburg-Sobyanin-type fluid, and logarithmic superfluid. Therefore, the dynamics of such a mixture is described by a quantum wave equation, which contains not only the polynomial (Gross-Pitaevskii and Ginzburg-Sobyanin) nonlinearities with respect to a condensate wavefunction, but also a non-polynomial logarithmic nonlinearity. We derive an equation of state and speed of sound in our model, and show their agreement with experiment.

It is found that only the propagator with the isotropic (in three Euclidean dimensions) choice of dressing is acceptable as the physical fermion propagator. It is explained that the negative anomalous dimension of this physical fermion does not contradict any field-theoretical requirement.

description: The correlation between electronic and crystal structures of 1T-TiSe2 in the charge density wave (CDW) state is studied by x-ray diffraction. Three families of reflections are used to probe atomic displacements and the orbital asymmetry in Se. Two distinct onset temperatures are found, TCDW and a lower T* indicative for an onset of Se out-of-plane atomic displacements. T* coincides with a DC resistivity maximum and the onset of the proposed gyrotropic electronic structure. However, no indication for chirality is found. The relation between the atomic displacements and the transport properties is discussed in terms of Ti 3d and Se 4p states that only weakly couple to the CDW order.

Morpho-physiological studies on some micropropogated plants as influenced by liquid culture system and culture vessel environment

description: Chlorophytum borivilianum, Celastrus paniculatus and Terminalia bellerica, are important medicinal plants of Aravallis in Rajasthan. They provide the basic raw material for the production of herbal medicines. The bulk of raw material (about 90% of the demand) is harvested from Indian forests every year. Hence, the forest areas have been over–exploited to meet the requirements of the pharmaceutical and allied industries. In order to cater to the increasing demands of herbal drug markets, mass production of these three medicinally important plants have become necessary. Laboratory protocols for micropropagation of these three important plant species have already been developed in our laboratory. All these protocols however, used agar–gelled semi–solid media, which account for a significant cost of production of tissue culture plants. Therefore, a need for developing more cost–effective protocols was felt. The present study was thus undertaken to test the suitability of liquid culture system eliminating the need of agar for micropropagation of these three important plant species. Effect of other factors such as type of supports, temporary immersion, vessel type, stopper types and CO2 enrichment in conjunction with liquid medium were also investigated. The analysis of morpho–physiological and biochemical parameters of shoot cultures grown on liquid medium and under different culture vessel environment were further carried out to add to our knowledge the extent of abnormality caused to the shoot cultures by the in vitro modified environment.

description: R. G. Gregory's article on the effects of mineral discoveries on the Australian economy (Australian Journal of Agricultural Economics, August 1976) has attracted much attention. While the partial-equilibrium nature of his model has enabled it to be absorbed readily, it has the usual theoretical limitations of such analyses. Allowing for general equilibrium repercussions, but still accepting his general assumptions, some of Gregory's conclusions regarding the impact of new mineral discoveries require modification or extension: (a) Although production of goods other than minerals can be expected to decline, the production of some goods in this category may rise; (b) A social gain is still possible even if outputs of other goods do not change; (c) While the price of non-tradeable goods can be expected to rise, production of non-tradeables may increase or decrease. We also show the magnified effect of mineral discoveries on the rents of factors specific to minerals, and the squeeze exerted on the rents of factors specific to other tradeables.
Variability Profiles of Millisecond X-Ray Pulsars: Results of Pseudo-Newtonian 3D MHD Simulations

description: We model the variability profiles of millisecond period X-ray pulsars. We performed three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations of disk accretion to millisecond period neutron stars with a misaligned magnetic dipole moment, using the pseudo-Newtonian Paczynski-Wiita potential to model general relativistic effects. We found that the shapes of the resulting funnel streams of accreting matter and the hot spots on the surface of the star are quite similar to those for more slowly rotating stars obtained from earlier simulations using the Newtonian potential. The funnel streams and hot spots rotate approximately with the same angular velocity as the star. The spots are bow-shaped (bar-shaped) for small (large) misalignment angles. We found that the matter falling on the star has a higher Mach number when we use the Paczynski-Wiita potential than in the Newtonian case. Having obtained the surface distribution of the emitted flux, we calculated the variability curves of the star, taking into account general relativistic, Doppler and light-travel-time effects. We found that general relativistic effects decrease the pulse fraction (flatten the light curve), while Doppler and light-travel-time effects increase it and distort the light curve. We also found that the light curves from our hot spots are reproduced reasonably well by spots with a gaussian flux distribution centered at the magnetic poles. We also calculated the observed image of the star in a few cases, and saw that for certain orientations, both the antipodal hot spots are simultaneously visible, as noted by earlier authors.

description: Several farm sector econometric models are reviewed initially and the aggregation problem highlighted. A thirty-equation model of the Australian agricultural sector is specified in which farm output, stocks and exports and the domestic demand for farm products are endogenous, as well as farm, export and retail prices. Disaggregation is into food and non-food components of unprocessed output, and the processing of food is traced through to final demand. The model is estimated by a modified 2SLS procedure using quarterly data covering the period 1960-1970.

description: We consider the effects of polydispersity on isotropic-nematic phase equilibria in thermotropic liquid crystals, using a Maier-Saupe theory with factorized interactions. A sufficient spread (approx. 50%) in the interaction strengths of the particles leads to phase separation into two or more nematic phases, which can in addition coexist with an isotropic phase. The isotropic-nematic coexistence region widens dramatically as polydispersity is increased, leading to re-entrant isotropic-nematic phase separation in some regions of the phase diagram. We show that similar phenomena will occur also for non-factorized interactions as long as the interaction strength between any two particle species is lower than the mean of the intra-species interactions.

description: Industrial manipulators often interact with large and complex objects for a variety of automation tasks. Finding a feasible path for the robot end-effector that ensures task success is often non-trivial due to considerations such as reachability, singularity avoidance, and collision avoidance. This dissertation presents an approach to expand the search space for feasible robot trajectories (and search for an optimal solution) around large and complex geometry by taking advantage of task redundancy for certain tasks without compromising task objectives. The effort builds on previous work enabling virtual fixture generation for complex shapes given CAD or scan data. While existing planners found in the literature have successfully implemented redundancy resolution techniques, the focus has mostly been on the execution of fully constrained trajectories by robots with Degrees of Freedom (DOF) greater than the number of task variables. This effort has successfully extended this discussion to address situations in which the nature of the task allows for relaxation of both geometric and non-geometric task variables to enable the exploration of a larger range of feasible solutions. The effort was developed into a trajectory planning library on the ROS (Robot Operating System) framework and tested by simulating an interaction of a six-axis industrial robot with an F-16 aircraft and a conformal Additive Manufacturing (AM) case study. The results show benefits such as increased task surface coverage with minimal robot base placements and greater user control over the trajectory generation since the user can easily identify problematic points in the trajectory and specify parameters to modify them in real-time.
A NOTE ON OFF-FARM INCOME OF FARM FAMILIES IN AUSTRALIA

description: Past studies of the farm sector have concentrated on the use of farm based resources in the farm context alone. Changes in the economic environment have widened the opportunities available to these resources and have thus tended to make this narrow definition of the farm firm less relevant. Some recognition of this situation has emerged in more recent studies. The aim of this note is to collate and examine the degree to which farm labour resources are employed in off-farm activities in Australia. The main conclusion drawn from the evidence available is that, while in aggregate part-time farming is a fairly minor activity, in some sectors it is increasing in importance and constitutes a considerable outlet for farm based labour resources.

description: This paper considers a statistical model for a production frontier that is consistent with the traditional (nonstochastic) definition of a production function given in microeconomic theory. Limiting cases of the model are the familiar average production function and an envelope production function. Maximum-likelihood estimators for the parameters of the model are defined.

description: This study of poultry meat supply and demand responses has two objectives. The first is to help meet the needs of the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics for models for its commodity outlook and other work. The second objective is to quantify the effects on the poultry meat sector of a recent significant change in the domestic feed wheat marketing policy. The paper commences with a review of changes in the poultry meat sector since about 1970, including a description of the new feed wheat policy and its relevance to the poultry sector. The review forms a basis for the formulation, estimation and interpretation of an econometric model of poultry meat supply and demand.

description: PMI). Choosing the appropriate speed is recognized as being one of the most important decisions during this process. However, despite a growing body of literature on integration speed, our understanding of how it should be managed remains incomplete. In addressing this issue, this study answers the numerous calls to understand the PMI process in a more comprehensive manner through the use of nuanced investigations of the role of speed and rhythm in PMI events (e.g., Graebner at al. 2017). Bauer (2015) has identified three key areas that are under-researched in the M&A literature related to speed of PMI. They are (i) the speed-performance relationship, (ii) factors influencing speed of integration and (iii) the measurement of speed of integration. Focusing primarily on the issues (ii) and (iii), this dissertation will take a perceptual and relative view of speed. During a 30-month longitudinal study of two merging not-for-profit organisations, data was gathered from 10 distinct sources. This offered the possibility for robust, triangulated data analysis and theorisation. Hence, this dissertation develops a novel and detailed methodology for measuring the varying speeds of PMI rather than aggregated speeds that are often presented in cross sectional studies. This study also shows that understanding integration speed(s) is complicated by employees demonstrating inconsistent attitudes towards fast or slow PMI. Notably, their perceptions of the speed of PMI may vary in accordance with their involvement in the decision-making process. This study identifies the Parmenidian Principle of speed of change and discusses its implications for the management of the PMI process. A second issue is that managers may advocate one set of temporal structures (a planned, linear change process) whilst enacting a different set (i.e., a more seemingly emerging, opportunistic approach). This leads to accelerations and decelerations in PMI speed. A key mechanism, a kairotic switch, is identified. This study demonstrates how this is used by managers in practice and its impact on the speed of change. The findings enable a deeper understanding of temporal dynamics during the PMI process. By determining that key decisions may be undertaken according to subjective measures and perceptions, this dissertation brings a richer assessment of speed. From a broader management perspective, this dissertation thus adds to our knowledge of the causes of the disconnect between intended and realized strategy.
A joint bayesian space-time model to integrate spatially misaligned air pollution data in R-INLA

description: In air pollution studies, dispersion models provide estimates of concentration at grid level covering the entire spatial domain, and are then calibrated against measurements from monitoring stations. However, these different data sources are misaligned in space and time. If misalignment is not considered, it can bias the predictions. We aim at demonstrating how the combination of multiple data sources, such as dispersion model outputs, ground observations and covariates, leads to more accurate predictions of air pollution at grid level. We consider nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentration in Greater London and surroundings for the years 2007-2011, and combine two different dispersion models. Different sets of spatial and temporal effects are included in order to obtain the best predictive capability. Our proposed model is framed in between calibration and Bayesian melding techniques for data fusion red. Unlike other examples, we jointly model the response (concentration level at monitoring stations) and the dispersion model outputs on different scales, accounting for the different sources of uncertainty. Our spatio-temporal model allows us to reconstruct the latent fields of each model component, and to predict daily pollution concentrations. We compare the predictive capability of our proposed model with other established methods to account for misalignment (e.g. bilinear interpolation), showing that in our case study the joint model is a better alternative.

description: In this manuscript, we survey the main characteristics that provide neutrinos with the capability of being the perfect candidate to test gravity. A number of potentially resourceful scenarios is analyzed, with particular emphasis on how the versatility of neutrinos lends itself to understand the multifaceted nature of the gravitational interaction, both at classical and quantum scales. As a common thread running through the two different regimes, we consider the fundamental principles underpinning General Relativity and its possible quantum extensions. Finally, we discuss some open problems and future perspectives.

description: The economics of a higher loan rate to support US wheat prices is analysed. Utilising optimal control theory, a dynamic wheat trade model is developed. The basic premise underlying the model is that the United States finds itself having transient monopoly power in the wheat market. An expression for the optimal pricing policy which maximises the present value of expected profits over the indefinite future is derived. Results from both the theoretical and empirical models demonstrate that the US wheat pricing strategy depends on its costs relative to competitors' costs, the discount rate and the competitors' response function. The main policy implication of the analysis is for the dominant wheat exporting country constantly to seek to lower costs relative to competitors and to maintain a price exceeding unit cost without encouraging competitors' expansion.

Demand and Price Analysis

description: Cross-sectional data are used to estimate a three-equation generalised addilog demand system (GADS); two equations are used to express the demand for milk by method of sale and a residual equation is used to close the system. It is shown that, as the average budget share of the residual equation approaches unity, the GADS equations for the incomplete system are approximately equivalent to double logarithmic equations. It is found that aggregate milk demand is relatively insensitive to both price and income, but the degree of substitution between delivered and non-delivered milk is both large and highly significant. A new test for influential data in the system context is developed and it suggests that the reported results are robust to variations in the sample space.

description: We perform a global analysis of transverse momentum distributions in Drell-Yan pair and Z boson production in order to investigate universality of nonperturbative contributions to the Collins-Soper-Sterman resummed form factor. Our fit made in an improved nonperturbative model suggests that the nonperturbative contributions follow universal nearly-linear dependence on the logarithm of the heavy boson invariant mass Q, which closely agrees with an estimate from the infrared renormalon analysis.

description: Increasing importance is being attached to market segmentation strategies as a means of increasing producer returns. In this paper, a generalised model of price discrimination without supply control is developed to analyse the implications of optimal segmentation strategies for non-homogeneous products. It is shown that the magnitude of producer returns is dependent on demand and supply conditions, with increases in returns falling as price elasticities of demand and supply increase. The model is applied to the New Zealand sheep meats industry to reveal that returns to producers from market segmentation strategies could be quite low in the long run.

description: Let $C_n^k$ be the $k$-th power of a cycle on $n$ vertices (i.e. the vertices of $C_n^k$ are those of the $n$-cycle, and two vertices are connected by an edge if their distance along the cycle is at most $k$). For each vertex draw uniformly at random a subset of size $c$ from a base set $S$ of size $s=s(n)$. In this paper we solve the problem of determining the asymptotic probability of the existence of a proper colouring from the lists for all fixed values of $c,k$, and growing $n$.
