description: This article explores an alternative approach to the study of individual differences of cognitive function-- that people may have the same strategies but differential ability to adaptively select among them in response to success and failure feedback from the environment. Three studies involving the complex and dynamic Kanfer-Ackerman Air Traffic Control Task (P. L. Ackerman & R. Kanfer, 1994) demonstrate (a) that individuals do differ systematically along this strategy adaptivity dimension, (b) that those differences have important consequences for overall task performance, and (c) that the differences are primarily associated with reasoning ability and working-memory capacity.

description: Entanglement is widely considered the cornerstone of quantum information and an essential resource for relevant quantum effects, such as quantum teleportation, quantum cryptography, or the speed-up of quantum computing, as in Shor's algorithm. However, up to now, there is no general characterization of entanglement for many-body systems. In this sense, it is encouraging that quantum states connected by stochastic local operations assisted with classical communication (SLOCC), which perform probabilistically the same quantum tasks, can be collected into entanglement classes. Nevertheless, there is an infinite number of classes for four or more parties that may be gathered, in turn, into a finite number of entanglement families. Unfortunately, we have not been able to relate all classes and families to specific properties or quantum information tasks, although a few of them have certainly raised experimental interest. Here, we present a novel entanglement classification for quantum states according to their matrix-product-state structure, exemplified for the symmetric subspace. The proposed classification relates entanglement families to the interaction length of Hamiltonians, establishing the first connection between entanglement classification and condensed matter. Additionally, we found a natural nesting property in which the families for $N$ parties carry over to the $N+1$ case. We anticipate our proposal to be a starting point for the exploration of the connection between entanglement classification properties and condensed-matter models.

description: In a survey in the vineyards of Southwestern Iran, Chaharmahal and Bakhtiyari province, Xiphinema index populations were collected during 2019-2020. These nematodes are described based on morphological characters. Identification of this species was done based on the morphological and morphometrical features and analysis of the D2-D3 segments of 28S rRNA gene sequences. Females are similar morphologically to the original and other descriptions of X. index from different countries. Comparison of our sequences with those from the GenBank database showed Iranian X. index had 99100% identity and 4-10 bases pair differences with sequences of the other populations of X. index. Phylogenetic analysis based on sequences of the partial 28S rRNA gene and using Neighbour Joining method placed our population within other populations of X. index.
DROID - a guide to recent product enhancements
Creators: name: Daly, Steve
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: DROID is an open-source tool used by thousands of archives to support their Digital Preservation workflows. It allows large volumes of files to be characterised to determine the precise format of each digital file, and to capture important technical parameters including creating checksums using a variety of algorithms to help enable trust in the end-to-end integrity of digital records.

The National Archives (UK) have been working on some significant improvements to DROID in the last year. These have focused on addressing some of the main problems that users (particularly those who are new to using DROID) encounter with the application. Most importantly though, has been the addition of a new feature to allow DROID to generate customisable, templated metadata manifests which can be used as an early step in cataloguing digital files or preparing them for processing. It arose from real-world challenges facing archivists and records managers handling large collections, and allows the removal of complex manual steps in some current workflows. The feature has been designed to be applicable to a wide range of users and customisable to the needs of different institutions.

Although the feature will be documented in the DROID 6.8.0 instructions, this Lightning Talk will give an overview and visual walkthrough of the new capability, to spread awareness and allow more people to benefit from this feature, and to begin conversations about how to develop this further in future releases.

description: The subject matter of any conversation or document can typically be described as some combination of elemental topics. We have developed a language model adaptation scheme that takes a piece of text, chooses the most similar topic clusters from a set of over 5000 elemental topics, and uses topic specific language models built from the topic clusters to rescore N-best lists. We are able to achieve a 15% reduction in perplexity and a small improvement in WER by using this adaptation. We also investigate the use of a topic tree, where the amount of training data for a specific topic can be judiciously increased in cases where the elemental topic cluster has too few word tokens to build a reliably smoothed and representative language model. Our system is able to fine-tune topic adaptation by interpolating models chosen from thousands of topics, allowing for adaptation to unique, previously unseen combinations of subjects.

description: We have carried out density-matrix-renormalization group (DMRG) calculations for the problem of one doped hole in a two-leg $t-J$ ladder. Recent studies have concluded that exotic "Mott" physics --- arising from the projection onto the space of no double-occupied sites --- is manifest in this model system, leading to charge localization and a new mechanism for charge modulation. In contrast, we show that there is no localization and that the charge density modulation arises when the minimum in the quasiparticle dispersion moves away from $π$. Although singular changes in the quasiparticle dispersion do occur as a function of model parameters, all the DMRG results can be qualitatively understood from a non-interacting "band-structure" perspective.

The Hispanic health paradox through a new lens: spatial clustering and birth outcomes in the rural Southeast
Creators: name: Edelblute, Heather B.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2011

description: The new era of immigration is one where immigrant populations are settling in non-traditional places, such as rural areas in southeast, with a migration pattern characterized by its speed. The place and space surrounding these immigrants is different than in traditional gateway cities and requires new approaches for measuring social processes surrounding these groups. This research examines whether the health advantage that Latino immigrant women have over adverse birth outcomes persists in a rural county in North Carolina with two immigrant populations, one from Mexico and the other from Central/South America. Using geocoded birth records, the assimilation and social network aspects of the Hispanic health paradox are explored through the creation of a birth clustering variable in ArcGIS. The birth clustering variable measures inferred co-ethnic concentration of immigrant mothers in a mother's neighborhood. The effect that co-ethnic concentration has on birth outcomes is discussed in this paper.

The Unifying Moral Dyad: Liberals and Conservatives Share the Same Harm-Based Moral Template
Creators: name: Schein, Chelsea
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Do moral disagreements regarding specific issues (e.g., patriotism, chastity) reflect deep cognitive differences (i.e., distinct cognitive mechanisms) between liberals and conservatives? Dyadic morality suggests that the answer is “no.” Despite moral diversity, we reveal that moral cognition—in both liberals and conservatives—is rooted in a harm-based template. A dyadic template suggests that harm should be central within moral cognition, an idea tested—and confirmed—through six specific hypotheses. Studies suggest that moral judgment occurs via dyadic comparison, in which counter-normative acts are compared with a prototype of harm. Dyadic comparison explains why harm is the most accessible and important of moral content, why harm organizes—and overlaps with—diverse moral content, and why harm best translates across moral content. Dyadic morality suggests that various moral content (e.g., loyalty, purity) are varieties of perceived harm and that past research has substantially exaggerated moral differences between liberals and conservatives.

Together with the pebbling number, the optimal pebbling number, the number of vertices $n$ and the diameter $d$ of the graph, this yields 7 graph parameters. We determine the relationships between these parameters. We investigate properties of the $r$-critical pebbling number, and distinguish between greedy graphs, thrifty graphs, and graphs for which the $r$-critical pebbling number is $2^d$.

description: Ensuring the correctness of computer systems used in life-critical
applications is very difficult. The most commonly
used verification methods, simulation and testing, are not
exhaustive and can miss errors. This work describes an
alternative verification technique based on symbolic
model checking that can automatically and exhaustively
search the state space of the system and verify if properties
are satisfied or not. The method also provides useful quantitative
timing information about the behavior of the system.
We have applied this technique using the Verus tool to
a complex safety-critical system designed to control
medium and large-size railway stations. We have identified
some anomalous behaviors in the model with serious
potential consequences in the actual implementation. The
fact that errors can be identified before a safety-critical
system is deployed in the field not only eliminates sources
of very serious problems, but also makes it significantly
less expensive to debug the system.

Heterotrophic Extracellular Enzymatic Activity Across Geospatial Regimes in the Atlantic Ocean

description: Heterotrophic activity in the marine water column plays a crucial role in the carbon cycle, affecting the amount of particulate carbon available to higher trophic levels, the amount of organic carbon preserved over geological timescales, and the balance of CO2 between the oceans and the atmosphere. Extracellular enzymes initiate the breakdown of organic matter, hydrolyzing it into sizes small enough to transport into the cell. The variability of heterotrophic extracellular enzymatic activity across geospatial regimes in the ocean may have an important impact on global carbon flux, yet the patterns of hydrolysis across latitude and depth, and the factors driving these patterns, remain poorly understood. This project investigates the geospatial variability in extracellular hydrolysis of eight organic substrates, spanning surface to bottom water at latitudes from 38°S to 10°N in the Atlantic Ocean. The extent to which ten environmental variables impact hydrolysis patterns along this latitude-depth range is also discussed.

description: Most natural domains can be represented in multiple ways: we can categorize foods in terms of their nutritional content or social role, animals in terms of their taxonomic groupings or their ecological niches, and musical instruments in terms of their taxonomic categories or social uses. Previous approaches to modeling human categorization have largely ignored the problem of cross-categorization, focusing on learning just a single system of categories that explains all of the features. Cross-categorization presents a difficult problem: how can we infer categories without first knowing which features the categories are meant to explain? We present a novel model that suggests that human cross-categorization is a result of joint inference about multiple systems of categories and the features that they explain. We also formalize two commonly proposed alternative explanations for cross-categorization behavior: a features-first and an objects-first approach. The features-first approach suggests that cross-categorization is a consequence of attentional processes, where features are selected by an attentional mechanism first and categories are derived second. The objects-first approach suggests that cross-categorization is a consequence of repeated, sequential attempts to explain features, where categories are derived first, then features that are poorly explained are recategorized. We present two sets of simulations and experiments testing the models' predictions about human categorization. We find that an approach based on joint inference provides the best fit to human categorization behavior, and we suggest that a full account of human category learning will need to incorporate something akin to these capabilities.

description: In this paper, the kinetic study of the reaction between substituted 1,4-benzoquinones (RBQs) and Na2SO3 (S(IV)) is presented in aqueous solutions at different pH values and reagent concentrations. The stoichiometry of the reaction is 1:2 RBQs:S(IV) and one equivalent of chloride ion was also detected as a product when using mono- (2-CBQ) or dichloro-benzoquinones (2,5-DCBQ; 2,6-DCBQ) as reactants. This shows that reductive dehalogenation occurs instead of simple reduction to the corresponding substituted 1,4-hydroquinones (RBQHs) and quinone bisulfites are formed, analogously to the addition of bisulfite ion to carbonyl compounds. Various sulfonated quinones have been identified as products by electrospray mass spectrometry. Kinetic traces at different wavelengths were obtained by the stopped-flow technique with spectrophotometric detection, a kinetic fitting program (ZiTa) was used to fit a multi-step model to the data. A detailed mathematical evaluation of the reaction scheme was carried out under non-pseudo-first order conditions showing that our model can be fitted with a double exponential function even when none of the reagents are in large excess.

description: The deployment of mobile femtocellular networks can enhance the service quality for the users inside the vehicles. The deployment of mobile femtocells generates a lot of handover calls. Also, numbers of group handover scenarios are found in mobile femtocellular network deployment. The ability to seamlessly switch between the femtocells and the macrocell networks is a key concern for femtocell network deployment. However, until now there is no effective and complete handover scheme for the mobile femtocell network deployment. Also handover between the backhaul networks is a major concern for the mobile femtocellular network deployment. In this paper, we propose handover control between the access networks for the individual handover cases. Call flows for the handover between the backhaul networks of the macrocell-to-macrocell case are proposed in this paper. We also propose the link switching for the FSO based backhaul networks. The proposed resource allocation scheme ensures the negligible handover call dropping probability as well as higher bandwidth utilization.

description: A scheme to achieve spin squeezing using a geometric phase induced by a single mechanical mode is proposed. The analytical and numerical results show that the ultimate degree of spin squeezing depends on the parameter $\frac{n_{th}+1/2}{Q\sqrt{N}}$, which is the ratio between the thermal excitation, the quality factor and square root of ensemble size. The undesired coupling between the spin ensemble and the bath can be efficiently suppressed by Bang-Bang control pulses. With high quality factor, the ultimate limit of the ideal one-axis twisting spin squeezing can be obtained for an NV ensemble in diamond.

      Kelsey A. Ludwig: Social Cognition Psychometric Evaluation (SCOPE) for Early Psychosis (Under the direction of Dr. David L. Penn)
        Social cognition is an important outcome in schizophrenia research.  Unfortunately, there has been a lack of consensus regarding which measures of social cognition best capture this domain of functioning.  The Social Cognition Psychometric Evaluation (SCOPE) study was developed to address the need for a battery of measures that have sound psychometric properties and can be implemented in clinical trials for individuals with chronic schizophrenia.  The current study expands upon the SCOPE study by examining the psychometric properties of the eight candidate measures administered to individuals early in the course of psychosis.  Thirty-eight stable outpatients with first episode psychosis (FEP) and thirty-nine healthy controls completed the battery at baseline and one-month follow-up assessments.  The SCOPE battery was evaluated on a collection of psychometric properties, including: (1) Reliability – including test-retest and internal consistency, (2) Between group differences – including direct comparisons between first episode patients, the chronic schizophrenia sample from SCOPE, and both demographically-matched control groups, (3) Utility as a repeated measure, (4) Convergent and discriminant validity, (5) Relationship to social and occupational functioning, (6) Incremental validity – variance in functioning beyond neurocognition, and (7) Feasibility – including practicality of administration and tolerability.  Social cognition accounted for substantially more variance in functional outcome than neurocognition.  Participants with FEP outperformed chronic schizophrenia patients on the majority of candidate measures of social cognition.  Only one measure, the Hinting task, displayed adequate psychometric properties to be recommended for use in clinical research with first episode psychosis.  The remaining candidate measures would require modifications before implementation or cannot be recommended for use in clinical research with first episode psychosis.

description: The bandwidth adaptation is the technique that allows the flexibility in bandwidth allocation for a call. Using the bandwidth adaptation technique, the number of call admission in the system can be increased significantly. In this paper we propose a priority based bandwidth adaptation scheme that can release multi-level of bandwidth from the existing calls to accept call requests. The amount of released bandwidth is based on the number of existing bandwidth adaptive calls and the priority of requesting traffic call. This priority scheme does not reduce the bandwidth utilization. Moreover, the proposed bandwidth adaptation strategy provides significantly reduced call blocking probability for the higher priority traffic calls. The performance analyses show the improvement of the proposed scheme.

description: En la Edad Media el amor se podía definir de diversas formas. Desde la perspectiva religiosa, el término era sinónimo de voluntas, caridad, entrega al prójimo. Este tipo de amor se defendía en los textos bíblicos y en la literatura de carácter moralizante.Pero el amor también se podía definir como pasión o “eros”, resultado de la idealización de la persona amada.

description: Three new thiourea-based thermo-reversible, low molecular weight organogelators (LMOGs) 3-5 have been synthesized using (+)-Dehydroabietylamine (DAA, a tricyclic diterpene) employing DLS (Diterpene-Linker-spacer) strategy. (+) DAA was converted into isothiocynates through a cascade of reactions and cross-coupled with primary amines to furnish thiourea 3-5 with respective spacers. The structures of gelators 3-5 were confirmed through 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution electron spray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESI–MS, positive mode) and FTIR spectroscopy. Gelation potential of gelators 3-5 was investigated through inverted test tube method and sol–gel transition measured by ball-dropping method. The results revealed that unbranched alkyl groups furnish gelation and their gelation ability increases with increasing spacer length. Gelator 5 with dodecyl chain found to be excellent gelator that can gelate hexane (spontaneously), toluene, methanol, ethanol, petrol, and diesel. Morphology of gels was studied though scanning electron microscopy exhibiting fibrillar to lamellar structure with a thickness in the range of 9.5 nm to 5.0 μm with increasing length of spacer.

description: This study dealt with denigration of black victims by white harmdoers. It was assumed that white racial attitudes tend to be ambivalent, rather than simply prejudiced, sympathetic, or indifferent. It was also assumed that ambivalence about a given group increases the likelihood of guilt arousal in encounters with members of the group, and consequent resort to guilt-reductive behavior, such as denigration. Two experiments were done. In the first, subjects were assigned the role of “instructor” and administered strong or mild electric shocks to a black or white confederate “learner as punishment for errors”. As predicted, pre- and postshock evaluations of the stimulus person showed greatest derogation in the Black Confederate-Strong Shock group. Next, the Black Confederate-Strong Shock condition was replicated, this time using subjects whose measured racial attitudes represented each of the four combinations of high or low prejudice, and high or low sympathy. As predicted, strongest derogation occurred among subjects who were both high on prejudice and high on sympathy (i.e., who were ambivalent).

description: We discovered a simple synthetic approach to the construction of novel 2-amino-5-mercapto-6-(mercaptomethyl)-4-aryl-4H-pyran-3-carbonitriles (3a-i) under metal-free conditions. The methodology depended on the treatment of 2-arylidenemalononitriles (2a-i) with 2-(5-oxo-1,3-dithian-2-ylidene)malononitrile (1) or 1,3-dimercaptopropan-2-one (5) in absolute ethanol using triethylamine as an effective catalyst. The reaction mechanism was discussed. Structures of all the synthesized products were established by elemental analysis and spectral tools.

description: Stretching dynamics of polymers in microfluidics is of particular interest for polymer scientists. As a charged polymer, a polyelectrolyte can be deformed from its coiled equilibrium configuration to an extended chain by applying uniform or non-uniform electric fields. By means of hybrid lattice Boltzmann-molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate how the condensed counterions around the polyelectrolyte contribute to the polymer stretching in inhomogeneous fields. As an application, we discuss the translocation phenomena and entropic traps, when the driving force is an applied external electric field.

description: The regioselective benzoyloxylation process involves stirring a mixture of phenyl/benzyl-sulfanyl/selenylethanoate 1a-c with appropriate oxidant [benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2a/ m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) 2b /bis(p-methoxybenzoyl peroxide) (BPM-BPO) 2c] under catalysis of hydrated copper acetate in toluene at 60 °C/RT. Regioselective C–H functionalization of esters 1a-c leads to benzoyloxy substituted phenyl/benzyl-sulfanyl/selenylbisesters 3a-g in good to excellent yields (80–95%). Variably substituted trans-3-phenylsulfanyl-β-lactams 4 employed for C3-H functionalization with BPO 2a generates diastereoisomeric mixture of trans- and cis-3-benzoyloxy-3-(phenylsulfanyl)-β-lactams 5 and 6 as major and minor isomers after efficient column chromatographic purification. The structural confirmation was done using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, DEPT-90 NMR spectroscopic analysis and CHNS elemental analysis. In vitro antibacterial and antifungal evaluations on bisesters suggest benzylselenyl-bisester 3c as potent antimicrobial agent. Out of trans- and cis-3-benzoyloxy-β-lactams 5a and 6a, the trans isomer 5a was active against all microbial strains whereas the cis isomer 6a was completely inactive.

description: Background. The calculation of diffusion-controlled ligand binding rates is important for understanding enzyme mechanisms as well as designing enzyme inhibitors. We demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of a Lagrangian particle-based method, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), to study diffusion in biomolecular systems by numerically solving the time-dependent Smoluchowski equation for continuum diffusion. Results. The numerical method is first verified in simple systems and then applied to the calculation of ligand binding to an acetylcholinesterase monomer. Unlike previous studies, a reactive Robin boundary condition (BC), rather than the absolute absorbing (Dirichlet) boundary condition, is considered on the reactive boundaries. This new boundary condition treatment allows for the analysis of enzymes with "imperfect" reaction rates. Rates for inhibitor binding to mAChE are calculated at various ionic strengths and compared with experiment and other numerical methods. We find that imposition of the Robin BC improves agreement between calculated and experimental reaction rates. Conclusions. Although this initial application focuses on a single monomer system, our new method provides a framework to explore broader applications of SPH in larger-scale biomolecular complexes by taking advantage of its Lagrangian particle-based nature.
