description: We compare the methods of amplitude reconstruction, for a complete experiment and a truncated partial-wave analysis, applied to the electroproduction of pseudoscalar mesons. We give examples which show, in detail, how the amplitude reconstruction (observables measured at a single energy and angle) is related to a truncated partial-wave analysis (observables measured at a single energy and a number of angles). A connection is made to existing data.

description: This article examines the potential of the concept of diaspora for a feminist methodology. The point of departure for our investigation is the observation that the majority of the research on gender and intersectionality done in Germany remains inside a national framework. Moreover, it lacks the perspective of global entanglements and migration as constitutive for European societies since the time of colonisation and the slave trade. There is, then, a tendency in gender studies to essentialise differences, even though its purported aim is to analyse social inequalities. After a cursory overview of the concepts that view society from the perspective of movement and diasporisation—such as Édouard Glissant’s ‘créolisation’, Paul Gilroy’s ‘black Atlantic’ as well as Peter Linebaugh’s and Markus Rediker’s ‘red Atlantic’—this article revisits three analytic feminist approaches of the 1980s and 1990s that offer elements of what we call a diasporic feminist method: these are Angela Davis’ analytic method of perspectivity, Avtar Brah’s notion of ‘diaspora space’ and Gloria Anzaldúa’s ‘border thinking’. The last section of the article shows how these conceptual tools contribute to a better understanding of interdependent and globalised social inequalities through the work of diasporised gender and intersectionality studies.

description: Excerpts from the report: The Chowan-Pasquotank basins are located in southeastern Virginia and the northeastern portion of North Carolina. The basins have a drainage area of 9,300 square miles, 53 percent in North Carolina and the remainder in Virginia. The basins include all the land draining into Albemarle Sound except for the drainage of the Roanoke River. Also included are the coastal areas from Virginia Beach to Hatteras Inlet. All or part of 13 counties in North Carolina and 16 in Virginia are in the study area. The Chowan-Pasquotank River basins were divided into five subareas for easier presentation. Each subarea is made up of counties with similar characteristics and problems. Fifty-five percent of this basin is in forest, 19 percent in cropland, 2 percent pasture and 4 percent in other agricultural uses. Other non-agricultural uses make up 20 percent of the total area. Land use trends show a continuing decrease in forest and shift of crop production from the Piedmont region to the Atlantic Coast Flatwoods. The USDA has provided an appraisal of the land and water resources of the basins and aided in planning development of the basins' resources. Alternative plans are also discussed in a general way for Flood Control, Water Supply, Water Quality, Wetland Preservation, and for Energy Development and Efficiency. Conceptual plans for Economic Efficiency and Environmental Quality are presented in Chapter 5. The suggested plan presents a list of recommendations to be pursued in more detailed investigations by local state and federal agencies.
description: In October 1970, the U. S. Army Engineer District, Norfolk, requested the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to make a study of the Chowan River Basin under authority of Section 204, Flood Control Act of June 30, 1948. The Agricultural Appropriation Act for Fiscal Year 1973 provided funds for USDA studies of the Chowan River Basin. These funds were authorized by Section 6 of Public Law 83-566. At the request of the involved state agencies the study was amended in 1976 to include the Pasquotank River Basins and the Dismal Swamp. The study was conducted by the Soil Conservation Service, the Forest Service, and the Economic Research Service in cooperation with the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources and Community Development, the U. S. Army Engineer Districts - Norfolk and Wilmington, the Virginia State Water Control Board, the North Carolina Soil and Water Conservation Commission, the Virginia Soil and Water Conservation Commission, and the North Carolina-Virginia Resources Management Committee.

description: In physical human-robot interaction, the coexistence of robots and humans in the same workspace requires the guarantee of a stable interaction, trying to minimize the effort for the operator. To this aim, the admittance control is widely used and the appropriate selection of the its parameters is crucial, since they affect both the stability and the ability of the robot to interact with the user. In this paper, we present a strategy for detecting deviations from the nominal behavior of an admittance-controlled robot and for adapting the parameters of the controller while guaranteeing the passivity. The proposed methodology is validated on a KUKA LWR 4+.

description: In order to handle undesirable failures of a multicopter which occur in either the pre-flight process or the in-flight process, a failsafe mechanism design method based on supervisory control theory is proposed for the semi-autonomous control mode. Failsafe mechanism is a control logic that guides what subsequent actions the multicopter should take, by taking account of real-time information from guidance, attitude control, diagnosis, and other low-level subsystems. In order to design a failsafe mechanism for multicopters, safety issues of multicopters are introduced. Then, user requirements including functional requirements and safety requirements are textually described, where function requirements determine a general multicopter plant, and safety requirements cover the failsafe measures dealing with the presented safety issues. In order to model the user requirements by discrete-event systems, several multicopter modes and events are defined. On this basis, the multicopter plant and control specifications are modeled by automata. Then, a supervisor is synthesized by monolithic supervisory control theory. In addition, we present three examples to demonstrate the potential blocking phenomenon due to inappropriate design of control specifications. Also, we discuss the meaning of correctness and the properties of the obtained supervisor. This makes the failsafe mechanism convincingly correct and effective. Finally, based on the obtained supervisory controller generated by TCT software, an implementation method suitable for multicopters is presented, in which the supervisory controller is transformed into decision-making codes.

description: In the strong coupling limit, $n$-point functions in lattice QCD with staggered fermions can be rewritten exactly as sums over constrained configurations of monomers, dimers, and baryon loops covering the spacetime lattice. Worm algorithms provide efficient global sampling methods over such ensembles, and are particularly efficient in the chiral limit. We study the thermodynamics of strongly-coupled U(3) and SU(3) lattice QCD with one massless staggered fermion using such methods, and compare the results with the relativistic pion gas down to low temperatures O(15 MeV).

description: Several recent works have empirically observed that Convolutional Neural Nets (CNNs) are (approximately) invertible. To understand this approximate invertibility phenomenon and how to leverage it more effectively, we focus on a theoretical explanation and develop a mathematical model of sparse signal recovery that is consistent with CNNs with random weights. We give an exact connection to a particular model of model-based compressive sensing (and its recovery algorithms) and random-weight CNNs. We show empirically that several learned networks are consistent with our mathematical analysis and then demonstrate that with such a simple theoretical framework, we can obtain reasonable re- construction results on real images. We also discuss gaps between our model assumptions and the CNN trained for classification in practical scenarios.

description: Both authentication and deauthentication are instrumental for preventing unauthorized access to computer and data assets. While there are obvious motivating factors for using strong authentication mechanisms, convincing users to deauthenticate is not straight-forward, since deauthentication is not considered mandatory. A user who leaves a logged-in workstation unattended (especially for a short time) is typically not inconvenienced in any way; in fact, the other way around: no annoying reauthentication is needed upon return. However, an unattended workstation is trivially susceptible to the well-known "lunchtime attack" by any nearby adversary who simply takes over the departed user's log-in session. At the same time, since deathentication does not intrinsically require user secrets, it can, in principle, be made unobtrusive. To this end, this paper designs the first automatic user deauthentication system, FADEWICH, that does not rely on biometric- or behavior-based techniques (e.g., keystroke dynamics) and does not require users to carry any devices. It uses physical properties of wireless signals and the effect of human bodies on their propagation. To assess FADEWICH's feasibility and performance, extensive experiments were conducted with its prototype. Results show that it suffices to have nine inexpensive wireless sensors deployed in a shared office setting to correctly deauthenticate all users within six seconds (90% within four seconds) after they leave their workstation's vicinity. We considered two realistic scenarios where the adversary attempts to subvert FADEWICH and showed that lunchtime attacks fail.

description: Excerpts from the report: The Texas Coastal Basins are located entirely within the State of Texas and includes all of 24 counties and portions of 22 additional counties. The study area is about 380 miles long and 70 miles wide and includes about 20,733,400 acres of land and 1,577,500 acres of water bodies over 40 acres in size, most of which is salt water in the bays and estuaries. It is characterized by the low topographic relief which is typical of the entire Gulf Coastal Plain. About 20 percent of the total area of the basin is cropland, 32 percent is range, 20 percent is forest, 12 percent is pasture, and 16 percent is in miscellaneous use such as urban, roads, railroads, farm headquarters, water, Federal lands, etc. The study was limited to investigations necessary to establish the general type, size, location, and priority of measures needed to accomplish flood control and prevention in upstream watersheds, improve Impaired drainage of selected agricultural lands, reduce sedimentation and erosion, provide for adequate recreational facilities, protect and enhance fish and wildlife resources, and maintain or improve the environmental quality of the basin. Secondary data and other information were used whenever possible and available. The study results emphasize solutions to problems that can be implemented by U.S. Department of Agriculture programs. The overall objective is to facilitate and coordinate the orderly conservation, utilization, and management of water, land, and related resources, thereby improving environmental and economic conditions. This broad objective forms a framework for the State's long-range goals to (1) promote efficient planning, development, and use of natural resources; (2) provide planning standards to minimize land use conflicts; and (3) encourage the use of resources in accordance with their inherent capability.
description: The U. S. Department of Agriculture conducted this study under the authority of Section 6 of the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act' (Public Law 83-566, as amended) which authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to cooperate with State, local, and other Federal agencies in surveys and investigations of the watershed of rivers and other waterways to develop coordinated programs. The sponsoring State agencies: Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board, Texas Water Development Board, Texas Water Rights Commission, and Interagency Council on Natural Resources and the Environment coordinated and provided the major State inputs.

description: Experimental results and a model are presented to explain the observed unusual enhancement of the effective magnetic anisotropy Keff with decreasing particle size D from 15 nm to 2.5 nm in γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (NPs). The samples include oleic acid-coated NPs with D = 2.5, 3.4, 6.3 and 7.0 nm investigated here, with the results on other sizes taken from literature. Keff is determined from the analysis of the frequency dependence of the blocking temperature TB after considering the effects of interparticle interactions on TB. The data of Keff vs. D is fit to the derived core-shell-based relation: Keff = Kb + (6KS/D) +Ksh{[1-(2d/D)]^(-3) -1}, with Kb = 1.9 x10^5 ergs/cm^3 as the bulk-like contribution of the core, KS = 0.035 ergs/cm^2 as the contribution of the surface layer, and Ksh = 1.057 x10^4 ergs/cm^3 as the contributions of spins in the shell of thickness d = 1.1 nm. This equation represents an extension of the often-used Eq.: Keff = Kb + (6KS/D). Significance of this new result is discussed.

Subjects: geography; internationalisation; gender studies; scholarly communication; collaboration

description: This paper addresses three themes related to contemporary challenges for "internationalizing" gender studies. First it examines approaches and potential for working with and creating structures to foster communication and support scholarship on gender. It offers two examples, one dealing with an international disciplinary organization, the other with a bi-national consortium. Next it takes up the complexities of identifying and addressing Anglophone hegemonies in research publications and the significance of language in constructing thought and expressions. Third, it considers approaches in higher education that aim to foster students’ understandings of international perspectives and identities via teaching collaborative courses and using technology.  In addressing these themes it primarily offers examples from the discipline of geography, one that attends especially to "place" and draws on the authors’ sustained experiences of international collaboration.

description: Im Beitrag wird die Funktion von Pseudonymität im Kontext literarischer Autorschaft untersucht. An Forschungen der feministischen Literaturwissenschaft zu Anonymität und Pseudonymität anknüpfend, rückt der Artikel insbesondere den handlungsmächtigen Aspekt von Namensfingierung in den Vordergrund: Das Pseudonym wird als List begriffen, d.h. als eine Taktik, die sich der patriarchalen Logik des Eigennamens bedient, um diese zugleich zu unterlaufen. Der erste Teil widmet sich dem Spannungsfeld von Name, Sprache und Geschlechtlichkeit, das für literarische Autorschaft und Kanonbildung zentral ist. Am Beispiel des autobiographischen Textes „Aus eines Mannes Mädchenjahren“, der 1907 unter dem Pseudonym N.O. Body erscheint, verdeutlicht der zweite Teil, auf welche Weise Pseudonymität als sprachliche List Geschlechtlichkeit sowohl herstellt als auch entstellt.

The well-posedness result complements the corresponding one in our recent work arXiv:1612.08260 where, under the additional assumption that $γ$ is single-valued, a solution with better integrability and regularity properties is constructed. The proof given here, however, is self-contained.

description: In diesem Beitrag wird die Bedeutung von Anonymität für die allgemeine Wahrnehmung und die Wahrnehmung von Geschlechtlichkeit untersucht. Im Ausgang der Phänomenologie Merleau-Pontys und mit Blick auf den Begriff der Singularität bei Deleuze wird Anonymität als latenter Untergrund der Existenz ausgemacht. Erst durch die Sinnesorgane wird die anonyme Existenz des Körpers überschritten, und so erscheint Anonymität jenseits der Organisation des Körpers als eines Funktionszusammenhangs strukturierter, signifizierter und unterschiedlich privilegierter Schichten. Ausgehend von Anonymität wird das personale Leben als eine Übernahme von Situationen und als Wechsel zwischen anonym-singulärem und personal-individuellem Leben des Menschen sichtbar. Auch Geschlechtlichkeit wird so als Eintritt in geschlechtlich geprägte Situationen und als eine vieldeutige Spannung zwischen anonymer Existenz und Sein in Situationen deutlich. In diesem Sinne erweist sie sich als eine Übernahme von Situationen aus der Anonymität heraus und ihrer Ausgestaltung sind entsprechende Freiheitsgrade zuzuschreiben.

description: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted much attention for use in nanomechanical devices because of their exceptional properties, such as large resonant frequencies, low mass, and high quality factors. Here, we report the first experimental realization of parametric strong coupling between two mechanical modes on a single CNT nanomechanical resonator, by applying an extra microwave pump. This parametric pump method can be used to couple mechanical modes with arbitrary frequency differences. The properties of the mechanical resonator are detected by single-electron tunneling at low temperature, which is found to be strongly coupled to both modes. The coupling strength between the two modes can be tuned by the pump power, setting the coupling regime from weak to strong. This tunability may be useful in further phonon manipulations in carbon nanotubes.

description: Plastic is one of the most commonly used materials around the world, and its impact on our planet's ecosystems is undeniable. Initiatives to reduce plastic waste have gained much traction over the last five years, but the focus areas of such initiatives don't always align with notable positive impacts. This study aims to recognize the lifetime flow of plastics, from production to end of life, ultimately identifying where plastic reduction efforts can be most impactful. On a global scale, specific data on plastic production and material flow is generally lacking, so calculations relied heavily on data provided in the United Nations' 2015 report about mapping global plastics. By completing a material flow analysis using collected data, a Sankey Diagram was generated with a focus on "Packaging" and "Lost to Environment". This study showed that about 30% of plastic produced goes to packaging, and around 2% of plastic is lost to the environment in its end of life. While the overall percentage of plastic bound for environmental loss is small, it still amounts to over 8 million metric tons of plastic waste. Plastic lost to the environment stems from various sources, making it a difficult issue to tackle, but the importance of addressing this loss is critical. Reducing demand for plastic production through decreased plastic use is one of the most impactful methods to minimize plastic waste, and this study provides knowledge about which plastics pose the greatest threat, thus guiding where efforts should be focused.

description: We study stock market instability by using cross-correlations constructed from the return time series of 366 stocks traded on the Tokyo Stock Exchange from January 5, 1998 to December 30, 2013. To investigate the dynamical evolution of the cross-correlations, cross-correlation matrices are calculated with a rolling window of 400 days. To quantify the volatile market stages where the potential risk is high, we apply the principal components analysis and measure the cumulative risk fraction (CRF), which is the system variance associated with the first few principal components. From the CRF, we detected three volatile market stages corresponding to the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, the 2011 Tohoku Region Pacific Coast Earthquake, and the FRB QE3 reduction observation in the study period. We further apply the random matrix theory for the risk analysis and find that the first eigenvector is more equally de-localized when the market is volatile.

description: Das erste Angebot zur anonymen Kindesabgabe in Deutschland wurde 1999 initiiert. Mit der Zielsetzung, Kindstötung und Aussetzung zu verhindern sowie Schwangere und Mütter in problematischen Lebenssituationen zu unterstützen, wurden in den Folgejahren weitere Babyklappen und Möglichkeiten der anonymen Geburt bzw. der anonymen Übergabe geschaffen. Zugleich regen sich seit ihrer Einführung ethische und rechtliche Bedenken.  In einer bundesweiten Studie untersuchte das Deutsche Jugendinstitut, wie sich die Angebote der anonymen Kindesabgabe entwickelt haben und von wem bzw. wie sie in Anspruch genommen werden. Die Studie zeigt, dass sich die gegenwärtige Praxis in einer rechtlichen Grauzone bewegt und Routinen manifestiert, die weder rechtmäßig noch fachlich stets angemessen sind. Zu den wesentlichen Befunden gehört, dass die Zielgruppen, die bei der Einrichtung der Angebote im Fokus standen, nicht erreicht werden. Nicht die Zugehörigkeit zu einer bestimmten sozialen Gruppe ist für die Nutzung von Angeboten anonymer Geburt ausschlaggebend, sondern vielmehr eine Häufung von Belastungen und Problemen schwangerer Frauen.  Der vorliegende Beitrag befasst sich mit einer auf Anonymität verengten Problemlösungspraxis und fokussiert die Konsequenzen für betroffene Frauen.  Dem gegenübergestellt werden die Argumentationsmuster, die die anonyme Kindesabgabe rechtfertigen. Sie werden hinsichtlich ihrer gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung für Frauen in (sozialen) Notlagen kritisch hinterfragt.

Publisher: name: Colorado School of Mines Repository

description: Methane is known as a major greenhouse gas and there are not many economical ways of measuring smaller methane concentrations. Currently, small concentration methane sensing technology is expensive and difficult to apply on a large scale. A lack of inexpensive methane-sensing technologies leaves many small leaks in various machines undetectable. BPX Energy (Denver, CO) partnered with the Colorado Fuel Cell Center at Colorado School of Mines to characterize inexpensive, linearly applicable methane sensors for greenhouse gas detection. In this effort, the team at the Colorado Fuel Cell Center has created a testing apparatus featuring an environmental chamber to quantify sensor response over a range of known methane concentrations, operating temperatures, and humidities. Gas composition is regulated using mass flow controllers. Chamber temperature and humidity are measured by an Arduino interfacing with additional data acquisition hardware. Sensor response is measured using National Instrument's PCI analog-to-digital tools. The control and data collection are fully controlled by a LabView script designed to execute scripted tests. The research includes extensive data collection, curve fitting and analysis. In addition to characterizing sensor response to changes in humidity and temperature, the large set of sensors examined provides insight to the consistency of sensor outputs, and precision between sensors.

description: Detecting defection and alarming partners about the possible danger could be essential to avoid being exploited. This act, however, may require a huge individual effort from those who take this job, hence such a strategy seems to be unfavorable. But structured populations can provide an opportunity where a largely unselfish excluder strategy can form an effective alliance with other cooperative strategies, hence they can sweep out defection. Interestingly, this alliance is functioning even at the extremely high cost of exclusion where the sole application of an exclusion strategy would be harmful otherwise. These results may explain why the emergence of extreme selfless behavior is not necessarily against individual selection but could be the result of an evolutionary process.

description: Anonyme Bestattungen haben in den letzten Jahrzehnten in Deutschland stark zugenommen. Damit hat sich neben traditionellen Formen der Bestattung und Grabgestaltung eine Beisetzungsform etablieren können, bei der das Grab nicht namentlich gekennzeichnet und daher für die Öffentlichkeit sowie häufig auch für Angehörige nicht auffindbar ist. Der Frage, was es bedeutet, bei der Grabwahl auf die Namensnennung und damit auf die Lokalisierung der persönlichen Grabstätte zu verzichten, wird im Beitrag anhand offener Leitfadeninterviews mit Personen, die sich für eine anonyme Bestattung entschieden haben, nachgegangen. In der Analyse der im Rahmen einer Grounded-Theory-Studie erhobenen und ausgewerteten Daten werden Aspekte deutlich, die sich zum Beispiel um Kontrollierbarkeit eigener Belange bis über den Tod hinaus, ein auf Inklusion und Exklusion abzielendes Handeln sowie scheinbar paradoxe Momente von Individualitätsstreben drehen. Zudem zeigen sich hier auffällige Differenzen zwischen Frauen und Männern: Die Präsentation bzw. Repräsentation von Weltanschauungen und Werthaltungen stellt für die Interviewpartner eine Triebfeder für die Entscheidung für eine Anonymbestattung dar. Aussagen der Interviewpartnerinnen indes verweisen darauf, dass diese Entscheidung primär einer pragmatischen und am sozialen Umfeld ausgerichteten Orientierung folgt.

description: Creating surface reconstructions from point clouds is common in computer graphics, vision, and video games. The most common way to evaluate the quality of surface reconstruction is to compare it to a ground truth mesh. However, this is not always possible. A novel method for evaluating surface reconstructions without ground truthing using simple computational geometry will be examined.

Subjects: cosmopolitanism; cosmofeminism; solidarity; justice; global order

description: This paper explores feminist contributions to contemporary cosmopolitan theory. It is argued that feminist cosmopolitanism presents a valuable critical perspective on how to make cosmopolitan ethics a basis for women’s social action. However, feminist authors diverge in their epistemological perspectives, which may result in the problematics being too narrowly defined; this proves to be the case in arguments that overlook women’s actual experiences and neglect the social relations of power which determine the conditions of women’s solidarity. By comparing the cosmopolitan discourse of Kristeva and Nussbaum on the one hand, and cosmofeminism on the other, the author argues for a multiperspectival cosmopolitanism. The critical point of departure of multiperspectival cosmopolitanism is human rights (Benhabib), triangulated by a feminist ethics of care and mourning (Butler).

description: We have studied the cathodo- and radioluminescence of Nd:YAG and of Tm:YAG single crystals in an extended wavelength range up to $\approx 5\,μ$m in view of developing a new kind of detector for low-energy, low-rate energy deposition events. Whereas the light yield in the visible range is as large as $\approx 10^{4}\,$photons/MeV, in good agreement with literature results, in the infrared range we have found a light yield $\approx 5\times 10^{4}\,$photons/MeV, thereby proving that ionizing radiation is particularly efficient in populating the low lying levels of rare earth doped crystals.

Neural mechanisms and functional signficance of peri-saccadic response modulation
Creators: name: Guez, Jonathan Simon
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Active vision involves fast eye movements (saccades) with brief inter-saccadic fixations. This presents two interesting problems. (1) During each saccade the moving eye creates motion signals on the retina, and yet we are unaware of this sweeping visual input. (2) Upon each brief fixation the visual system is input with a new scene, and tasked to quickly encode many stimulus features. Regarding the first problem, a decrease in contrast sensitivity during saccades (saccadic suppression) is thought to contribute to our lack of intra-saccadic perception. Chapters 2 & 3 of this thesis seek to further understand the neural mechanisms of saccadic suppression. Regarding the second problem, a post-saccadic change in neural activity is thought to specialize processing of newly fixated stimuli. Chapter 4 investigates the changes in visual response properties that occur after a saccade. Chapter 2 used a signal-detection model that describes the psychophysical phenomenon of saccadic suppression in computational terms. The model is built up of visual detectors in which gain, noise, and spatial uncertainty can be varied. Thus saccadic suppression is recast in terms that provide testable predictions of neural activities. We found that saccadic suppression is the result of reduced detector gain. Chapter 3 studied neural responses from permanently implanted multi-electrode arrays in V1 of macaques. Based on our Chapter 2 results, we looked specifically at how contrast responses change during saccades. We found saccadic gain reduction that begins before saccade onset, suggesting that V1 is a neural site of suppression, and that saccadic gain reduction is the result of a corollary discharge signal. Chapter 4 studied the effect of post-saccadic modulation on contrast response properties. Using model fitting and signal detection measures, we showed that post-saccadic modulations in V1 lead to an increased range of discriminable contrasts. We argue that this increased operating range gives a functional benefit when encountering newly fixated stimuli. Chapter 5 concludes by relating the saccadic gain reduction shown in Chapters 2 & 3 to the post-saccadic response changes shown in Chapter 4 – arguing that saccadic suppression can be viewed as part of a more general process to improve post-saccadic vision.
