description: Based on the proposed test design of the ICPPR non-Apis working group, a semi-field (tunnel) study was conducted with the solitary bee Osmia bicornis (L., 1758) in flowering Phacelia using tunnels. Untreated crop was used as a control, and the insect growth regulator fenoxycarb as a test item which is intended to be used as reference item for this study type. To improve the design and to enhance the informative value of such studies our method deviated in three points: placing the cocoons in the tubes of the nesting units, performing additional brood assessments in two to three day intervals and increasing the application rate of the test item.
Overall the results indicated that the proposed test design is suitable to perform studies on O. bicornis in Phacelia under semi-field conditions.Data on the reproduction performance, brood termination and hatching rate of the progenies show low variability between the replicates in both treatment groups. No impact on the flight activity, mortality, reproduction performance and hatching success of the progenies was observed, but an increased brood termination rate of larvae produced within the first days after application was recorded; in particular, placing the cocoons in the tubes lead to higher proportions of nesting established females. Moreover, due to the assessment of the cell production in 2 to 3 day intervals, it is possible to analyse time dependent effects on the reproductive performance, brood termination and hatching rate which can be expected by the decreasing exposure in the course of the study. And finally, it is shown that fenoxycarb is not a suitable reference item for such studies.

description: In this paper, the pilot signal design for massive MIMO systems to maximize the training-based received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is considered under two channel models: block Gauss-Markov and block independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) channel models. First, it is shown that under the block Gauss-Markov channel model, the optimal pilot design problem reduces to a semi-definite programming (SDP) problem, which can be solved numerically by a standard convex optimization tool. Second, under the block i.i.d. channel model, an optimal solution is obtained in closed form. Numerical results show that the proposed method yields noticeably better performance than other existing pilot design methods in terms of received SNR.

description: Automatic prostate segmentation from MR images is an important task in various clinical applications such as prostate cancer staging and MR-guided radiotherapy planning. However, the large appearance and shape variations of the prostate in MR images make the segmentation problem difficult to solve. Traditional Active Shape/Appearance Model (ASM/AAM) has limited accuracy on this problem, since its basic assumption, i.e., both shape and appearance of the targeted organ follow Gaussian distributions, is invalid in prostate MR images. To this end, the authors propose a sparse dictionary learning method to model the image appearance in a nonparametric fashion and further integrate the appearance model into a deformable segmentation framework for prostate MR segmentation.

Tourism as determinant of economic growth: the case of south-east Asian countries
Creators: name: Sica, Edgardo
Publisher: name: Universita' degli Studi di Salerno
Year: 2005

description: Today tourism represents one of the most dynamic economic sectors in the world. Even if the majority of international tourism still takes place within the developed world, recently tourism to developing countries is becoming a significant and increasing phenomenon, mainly to South-East Asian and Pacific countries. This study aims to verify if tourism represents a determinant of growth in such countries. Following recent empirical literature about growth, and mainly Eugenio-Martin, Morales and Scarpa (2004), a dynamic panel data model is adopted here to test for convergence. Results confirm the importance of tourists arrivals on the economic growth.

description: Accurate prostate segmentation is necessary for maximizing the effectiveness of radiation therapy of prostate cancer. However, manual segmentation from 3D CT images is very time-consuming and often causes large intra- and interobserver variations across clinicians. Many segmentation methods have been proposed to automate this labor-intensive process, but tedious manual editing is still required due to the limited performance. In this paper, the authors propose a new interactive segmentation method that can (1) flexibly generate the editing result with a few scribbles or dots provided by a clinician, (2) fast deliver intermediate results to the clinician, and (3) sequentially correct the segmentations from any type of automatic or interactive segmentation methods.

description: Microbeam radiation therapy (MRT) uses narrow planes of high dose radiation beams to treat cancerous tumors. This experimental therapy method based on synchrotron radiation has been shown to spare normal tissue at up to 1000 Gy of peak entrance dose while still being effective in tumor eradication and extending the lifetime of tumor-bearing small animal models. Motion during treatment can lead to significant movement of microbeam positions resulting in broader beam width and lower peak to valley dose ratio (PVDR), which reduces the effectiveness of MRT. Recently, the authors have demonstrated the feasibility of generating microbeam radiation for small animal treatment using a carbon nanotube (CNT) x-ray source array. The purpose of this study is to incorporate physiological gating to the CNT microbeam irradiator to minimize motion-induced microbeam blurring.

description: Purpose: Microbeam radiation therapy (MRT) is defined as the use of parallel, microplanar x-ray beams with an energy spectrum between 50 and 300 keV for cancer treatment and brain radiosurgery. Up until now, the possibilities of MRT have mainly been studied using synchrotron sources due to their high flux (100s Gy/s) and approximately parallel x-ray paths. The authors have proposed a compact x-ray based MRT system capable of delivering MRT dose distributions at a high dose rate. This system would employ carbon nanotube (CNT) field emission technology to create an x-ray source array that surrounds the target of irradiation. Using such a geometry, multiple collimators would shape the irradiation from this array into multiple microbeams that would then overlap or interlace in the target region. This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of attaining a high dose rate and parallel microbeam beams using such a system.

description: Cultural resource surveys for approximately 7.34 acres of property situated within Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB), Bernalillo County, New Mexico, yielded no significant cultural resources. The areas surveyed include the two drill locales with substantial buffer zones. As there are currently dirt roads providing access to the drill site buffer zones, no access routes were surveyed. The results of this survey concur with previous Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB) cultural resource inventories conducted in 1981. No archaeological sites were located within the proposed drill site locations during these previous inventories. All CAS observed isolated occurrences (IO's) were collected. Two isolated occurrences (IO's) were documented during this cultural resource inventory. A lard bucket (IO No. l) was recorded from Drill Location No.3 and a purple glass bottle (IO No.2) was documented from Drill Location No. 4. These two isolated occurrences are no longer thought to be potentially significant, however, as all important information has been recovered through field recordation. For this reason these artifacts are no longer thought to be eligible for inclusion to the National Register of Historic Places. Clearance is recommended.

description: (abridged) We run a Faraday structure determination data challenge to benchmark the currently available algorithms including Faraday synthesis (previously called RM synthesis in the literature), wavelet, compressive sampling and $QU$-fitting. The frequency set is similar to POSSUM/GALFACTS with a 300 MHz bandwidth from 1.1 to 1.4 GHz. We define three figures of merit motivated by the underlying science: a) an average RM weighted by polarized intensity, RMwtd, b) the separation $Δϕ$ of two Faraday components and c) the reduced chi-squared. Based on the current test data of signal to noise ratio of about 32, we find that: (1) When only one Faraday thin component is present, most methods perform as expected, with occasional failures where two components are incorrectly found; (2) For two Faraday thin components, QU-fitting routines perform the best, with errors close to the theoretical ones for RMwtd, but with significantly higher errors for $Δϕ$. All other methods including standard Faraday synthesis frequently identify only one component when $Δϕ$ is below or near the width of the Faraday point spread function; (3) No methods, as currently implemented, work well for Faraday thick components due to the narrow bandwidth; (4) There exist combinations of two Faraday components which produce a large range of acceptable fits and hence large uncertainties in the derived single RMs; in these cases, different RMs lead to the same Q, U behavior, so no method can recover a unique input model.

description: Commercial super-resolution (SR) imaging systems require a high budget, while current more affordable open source microscopy systems lack modularity and sometimes are too complex or lack reliability. We present miEye - a cost-effective microscope designed for high-resolution wide-field fluorescence imaging. The build is constructed using a CNC milled aluminum microscope body and commercially available optomechanics, with open-source Python-based microscope control, data visualization and analysis software integration. The data acquisition software works robustly with commonly used industrial-grade complementary metal oxide semiconductor (iCMOS) cameras, performs IR beam backreflection-based automatic focus stabilization, and allows for laser control via Arduino-based laser relay. The open source nature of the design is aimed to facilitate adaptation by the community. The build can be constructed for a cost of roughly 50k €. It contains SM-fiber and MM-fiber excitation paths that are easy to interchange and an adaptable emission path.

description: Perfluorocarbon (PFC) microdroplets, called phase-change contrast agents (PCCAs), are a promising tool in ultrasound imaging and therapy. Interest in PCCAs is motivated by the fact that they can be triggered to transition from the liquid state to the gas state by an externally applied acoustic pulse. This property opens up new approaches to applications in ultrasound medicine. Insight into the physics of vaporization of PFC droplets is vital for effective use of PCCAs and for anticipating bioeffects. PCCAs composed of volatile PFCs (with low boiling point) exhibit complex dynamic behavior: after vaporization by a short acoustic pulse, a PFC droplet turns into a vapor bubble which undergoes overexpansion and damped radial oscillation until settling to a final diameter. This behavior has not been well described theoretically so far. The purpose of our study is to develop an improved theoretical model that describes the vaporization dynamics of volatile PFC droplets and to validate this model by comparison with in vitro experimental data.

description: Fabricating complex submicron 3D structures can be achieved by multi-photon lithography, especially two-photon lithography is commonly used to obtain precision and flexibility in printing sophisticated sub-micron 3D structures. Several disadvantages stemmed from a two-photon lithography experiment setup, including cost, the necessity of a large laboratory space to use a femtosecond laser and a high-order process. A two-step absorption is chosen instead of two-photon lithography as a primary excitation process achieving the same degree of quadratic optical non- linearity as two-photon lithography at a lower cost with a relatively compact laboratory size. The working mechanism of Two-step absorption is the following. Quadratic nonlinearity comes from radicals from excited triplet states photoinitiators. Ground states of photoinitiators get excited by the incident laser. Those excited singlet photoinitiators go through the intersystem crossing, becoming the ground triplet state of photoinitiators. There are two branches after the ground triplet states, especially for photoinitiator benzil molecules with the incident laser on. Either it becomes a radical without photons received from the incident laser or gets excited again to an excited triplet state by the incident laser. Those excited triplet-state photoinitiator molecules become radicals that occur in polymerization. However, those from the ground triplet states add linearity to polymerization. When it comes to multiple exposures, the linearity becomes problematic, especially outside the region and tails of the voxel. For example, suppose the intensity at two tails of the voxel is 1% relative to the maximum intensity at the focal point. In that case, the absorbed dose will be added up to the maximum intensity at the focal point when it comes to 100 exposures. Quadratic nonlinearity and linearity are jumbled together in the current two-step absorption process. In this work, optimization of photoinitiator concentration was conducted to reduce the linearity. Confined and high throughput 3D structure fabrications are achieved by controlling initiator depletion. Simulations are also developed with multi-physics models to compare with the empirical results.

description: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is an increasingly utilized imaging modality for the diagnosis and treatment planning of the patients with craniomaxillofacial (CMF) deformities. Accurate segmentation of CBCT image is an essential step to generate 3D models for the diagnosis and treatment planning of the patients with CMF deformities. However, due to the image artifacts caused by beam hardening, imaging noise, inhomogeneity, truncation, and maximal intercuspation, it is difficult to segment the CBCT.

description: Over the last two decades, virtual and online multiplayer gaming has become an everyday activity for millions of individuals around the world. Although research exploring the dynamics of human performance within such virtual and online multiplayer environments has started to increase in recent years, particularly in the areas of perception and action, the role that verbal communication plays in facilitating online multiplayer team performance remains relatively limited. To begin to answer this question, we investigated the verbal and behavioural performance of teams of four participants playing an online multiplayer game that required teams to corral and contain a herd of autonomous agents (small robots) positioned within a large desert area. Each team was composed of three ground players who moved around the game area to corral and contain the target agents, and a fourth operator player, who had various birds-eye views of the entire game area. Team members could verbally communicate with each other via an audio channel. Of particular interest was the degree to which teams utilized verbal communication under various manipulations of task difficulty (e.g., changes to first-person visibility, number of targets to contain). Analysis of the underlying team performance data and audio transcriptions revealed a significant, yet subtle interplay between verbal communication and task performance. Further, the role communication played in shaping online multiplayer coordination and performance was both context and team (player) dependent.
Generalized Sparling-Thirring form in the Brans-Dicke theory

description: The definition of the Sparling-Thirring form is extended to the Brans-Dicke theory. By writing the Brans-Dicke field equations in a formally Maxwell-like form, a superpotential and a corresponding pseudo energy-momentum form are defined. The general energy expression provided by the superpotential in the Jordan frame is discussed in relation to the corresponding expression in the Einstein frame. In order to substantiate its formal definition, the generalized Sparling-Thirring form is used to calculate the energy for the spherically symmetric vacuum solution in the Brans-Dicke theory.

description: A significant number of patients suffer from craniomaxillofacial (CMF) deformity and require CMF surgery in the United States. The success of CMF surgery depends on not only the surgical techniques but also an accurate surgical planning. However, surgical planning for CMF surgery is challenging due to the absence of a patient-specific reference model. Currently, the outcome of the surgery is often subjective and highly dependent on surgeon’s experience. In this paper, the authors present an automatic method to estimate an anatomically correct reference shape of jaws for orthognathic surgery, a common type of CMF surgery.

description: Noise-based logic is a practically deterministic logic scheme inspired by the randomness of neural spikes and uses a system of uncorrelated stochastic processes and their superposition to represent the logic state. We briefly discuss various questions such as (i) What does practical determinism mean? (ii) Is noise-based logic a Turing machine? (iii) Is there hope to beat (the dreams of) quantum computation by a classical physical noise-based processor, and what are the minimum hardware requirements for that? Finally, (iv) we address the problem of random number generators and show that the common belief that quantum number generators are superior to classical (thermal) noise-based generators is nothing but a myth.

description: Conventional wisdom on the teaching of history in Mexico holds that the problem of learning is that today’s young people only think about the present and that they are incapable of assessing the past and the future. To remedy this, study programs now focus on developing various historical thinking skills grounded in the scientific work of historians. However, I believe this approach is based on an erroneous appraisal of youth and excludes other ways of using history.
description: Nach gängiger Meinung über den Geschichtsunterricht in Mexiko liegt das Problem mit dem Lernen von Geschichte darin begründet, dass die Jugend von heute nur über die Gegenwart nachdenkt und unfähig ist, Vergangenheit und Zukunft zu beurteilen. Um dies zu ändern, ist in den Studiengängen der Fokus auf die Ausbildung einer Reihe von Fähigkeiten des historischen Denkens gelegt worden, die auf den wissenschaftlichen Arbeitsmethoden von HistorikerInnen basiert. Allerdings glaube ich, dass dieser Zugang auf einer fehlerhaften Einschätzung der Jugendlichen und auf einem Ausschluss anderer Wege, Geschichte zu nutzen, beruht.
description: La enseñanza de la historia en México sostiene que el problema de aprendizaje se debe a que los jóvenes contemporáneos sólo piensan en el presente y son incapaces de valorar el pasado y el futuro. Para solucionar esto, los programas de estudios han creado una serie de competencias del pensar históricamente que se fundamentan en el quehacer científico de los historiadores. Sin embargo, considero que esta propuesta parte de un diagnóstico equivocado de los jóvenes y de la exclusión de otras formas de usar la historia.

description: Positron emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medical imaging technology that produces 3D images reflecting tissue metabolic activity in human body. PET has been widely used in various clinical applications, such as in diagnosis of brain disorders. High-quality PET images play an essential role in diagnosing brain diseases/disorders. In practice, in order to obtain high-quality PET images, a standard-dose radionuclide (tracer) needs to be used and injected into a living body. As a result, it will inevitably increase the patient’s exposure to radiation. One solution to solve this problem is predicting standard-dose PET images using low-dose PET images. As yet, no previous studies with this approach have been reported. Accordingly, in this paper, the authors propose a regression forest based framework for predicting a standard-dose brain [18F]FDG PET image by using a low-dose brain [18F]FDG PET image and its corresponding magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image.
Child Sexual Abuse Prevention and Social Connection
Creators: name: Kopp, April L.
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2008

description: Child sexual abuse (CSA) is a widespread problem that can affect victims’ well-being and functioning across the lifespan. For the past few decades, response to the problem has mainly consisted of early CSA prevention education for children and retribution for perpetrators. This article examines CSA and prevention efforts through a public health model, applying that theoretical frame to the case of the Stop It Now media campaign. It also recommends ways to expand the public health response to CSA to enhance both adult responsibility for addressing CSA and social connection between children and their caregivers.
Strengths and Limitations of Home Visiting to Prevent Child Maltreatment by Teen Parents

description: The use of home visiting services to prevent child maltreatment has been widely studied with adult parents, but few studies examine their use among teen parents. In 1991 the U.S. Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect recommended implementation of universal, voluntary home visiting for pregnant women. This article examines a sample of current models of home visiting as they affect the risk of child maltreatment among teen parents. Programs reviewed include the Nurse Home Visiting Program, Healthy Families America, Parents as Teachers, and the Colorado Adolescent Maternity Program. Evaluations of existing home visiting programs are reviewed and recommendations are made for future research.

description: Neural spikes in the brain form stochastic sequences, i.e., belong to the class of pulse noises. This stochasticity is a counterintuitive feature because extracting information - such as the commonly supposed neural information of mean spike frequency - requires long times for reasonably low error probability. The mystery could be solved by noise-based logic, wherein randomness has an important function and allows large speed enhancements for special-purpose tasks, and the same mechanism is at work for the brain logic version of this concept.

description: Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is a novel modality with the potential to improve early detection of breast cancer by providing three-dimensional (3D) imaging with a low radiation dose. 3D image reconstruction presents some challenges: cone-beam and flat-panel geometry, and highly incomplete sampling. A promising means to overcome these challenges is statistical iterative reconstruction (IR), since it provides the flexibility of accurate physics modeling and a general description of system geometry. The authors’ goal was to develop techniques for applying statistical IR to tomosynthesis imaging data.
