description: Action Prediction is aimed to determine what action is occurring in a video as early as possible, which is crucial to many online applications, such as predicting a traffic accident before it happens and detecting malicious actions in the monitoring system. In this work, we address this problem by developing an end-to-end architecture that improves the discriminability of features of partially observed videos by assimilating them to features from complete videos. For this purpose, the generative adversarial network is introduced for tackling action prediction problem, which improves the recognition accuracy of partially observed videos though narrowing the feature difference of partially observed videos from complete ones. Specifically, its generator comprises of two networks: a CNN for feature extraction and an LSTM for estimating residual error between features of the partially observed videos and complete ones, and then the features from CNN adds the residual error from LSTM, which is regarded as the enhanced feature to fool a competing discriminator. Meanwhile, the generator is trained with an additional perceptual objective, which forces the enhanced features of partially observed videos are discriminative enough for action prediction. Extensive experimental results on UCF101, BIT and UT-Interaction datasets demonstrate that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods, especially for videos that less than 50% portion of frames is observed.

description: This study reports the combined use of a rhamnolipid type biosurfactant (BS) along with phytoremediation and bioaugmentation (BA) for bioremediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated soils. Bacterial isolates obtained from hydrocarbon contaminated soil were screened for rhamnolipid production and isolate BS18, identified as Shewanella seohaensis, was selected for bioremediation experiments. Growth of BS18 in mineral salt medium (MSM) with diesel oil as the carbon source showed a maximum biomass of 8.2 g L−1, rhamnolipid production of 2.2 mg g−1 cell dry weight, surface tension reduction of 28.6 mN/m and emulsification potential (EI24%) of 65.6. Characterization of rhamnolipid based on Fourier transmittance infrared (FTIR) analysis confirmed the presence of OH, CH2/CH3, C=O, and COO stretching vibrations, respectively, which are distinctive features of rhamnolipid type BSs. In bioremediation experiments, the lowest hydrocarbon concentration of 2.1 mg g−1 of soil for non-sterilized soil and 4.3 mg g−1 of soil for sterilized soil was recorded in the combined application of rhamnolipid, phytoremediation, and BA. This treatment also yielded the highest hydrocarbon degrading bacterial population (6.4 Log Cfu g−1 of soil), highest plant biomass (8.3 g dry weight plant−1), and the highest hydrocarbon uptake (512.3 mg Kg−1 of plant).

T y p e m a t e r i a l Holotype, Sabah, Danum Valley, B.R.L., f.i.t., 14-16.II.2007, G. de Rougemont leg. (CROU). Paratypes: 26 exx., same provenance as the holotype (CROU, MSNV).
D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 2-2.18 mm. Body shiny and black, elytra and pygidium brown, antennae black with the two basal antennomeres brown, legs yellow. Second antennomere shorter than the first, third as long as the second, fourth to tenth transverse. Eyes as long as the postocular region in dorsal view. Reticulation of the fore-body very superficial, that of the abdomen transverse and evanescent on the first to fourth free tergites, evident and transverse on the fifth. Puncturation of the head very close and very superficial. Granulation of the pronotum, elytra and abdomen fine and very superficial. Aedeagus: Figs 86-87; spermatheca: Fig. 88.
 C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: In the form of the spermatheca and of the internal sclerotized pieces of the aedeagus the new species is comparable to the widespread A. vicaria KRAATZ, 1859, which occurs from the Mascarenes to the Philippines. The new species differs from A. vicaria in the apical umbilicus of the distal bulb of the spermatheca, which is short and very wide, whereas it is narrow and long in A. vicaria, in the basal lamina of the internal sclerotized pieces of the aedeagus being narrow and short (very large and long in A. vicaria) and in the bi-sinuate outline of the aedeagus, whereas it is curved in A. vicaria.
E t y m o l o g y: The name of the new species means "shiny thorns", alluding to the internal sclerotised pieces of the aedeagus.

Stress, coping, and adaptation in married couples
Creators: name: Terry, Deborah Jane
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988

description: This study was undertaken to determine the utility of a proposed model of family stress. For individual family members it was proposed that the level of strain (or subjective stress) in response to an event is related to (a) person variables, including importance of the event, beliefs about internal or external control, anticipated difficulty of the event, and familiarity with the event; (b) situational variables including ambiguity and timing of the event; and (c) accumulation of recent and concurrent stressors. It was also proposed that adaptation to the event depends on the level of strain, the type of coping behaviours utilised, and the extent of the person's coping resources individual, marital, and social. For couples, it was proposed that their mean scores on the predictors and also the discrepancy between their scores on these same predictors affect their mean collective scores on the dependent variables (strain and adaptation). A longitudinal study of 123 couples during the transition to parenthood was undertaken to examine the utility of the proposed model of family stress. When the individual marital partner was considered as the unit of analysis, the distinctive predictors of strain were the importance attributed to the event, its anticipated difficulty, the extent of role ambiguity, and the experience of recent and concurrent stressors. Also, as expected, high levels of strain and emotion-focussed coping emerged as distinctive predictors of poor adaptation. There was, however, little support for the hypothesis that problem-focussed coping facilitates adaptation to new parenthood. The data provided mixed support for the hypothesis that an individual's coping resources would produce a high level of adaptation. This support was largely evident in relation to the individual resources of self-esteem and morale and tended to support the additive model that, irrespective of the level of stress, coping resources have direct effects on well­ being, rather than an interactive effect of buffering the individual against stress. When the couple was considered as the unit of analysis, the data provided general support for the expectation that mean couple scores influence collective scores on the measures of strain and adaptation. These results largely replicated those obtained when the individual was the unit of analysis. But there was little evidence for the effect of discrepancy scores; that is, the levels of strain and adaptation were generally not affected by discrepancies between characteristics of the spouses.

description: A detailed study of the electronic transport and magnetic properties of Fe$_{1-x}$Cu$_x$Cr$_2$S$_4$ ($x \leq 0.5$) on single crystals is presented. The resistivity is investigated for $2 \leq T \leq 300$ K in magnetic fields up to 14 Tesla and under hydrostatic pressure up to 16 kbar. In addition magnetization and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements were performed. FMR and magnetization data reveal a pronounced magnetic anisotropy, which develops below the Curie temperature, $T_{\mathrm{C}}$, and increases strongly towards lower temperatures. Increasing the Cu concentration reduces this effect. At temperatures below 35 K the magnetoresistance, $MR = \frac{ρ(0) - ρ(H)}{ρ(0)}$, exhibits a strong dependence on the direction of the magnetic field, probably due to an enhanced anisotropy. Applying the field along the hard axis leads to a change of sign and a strong increase of the absolute value of the magnetoresistance. On the other hand the magnetoresistance remains positive down to lower temperatures, exhibiting a smeared out maximum with the magnetic field applied along the easy axis. The results are discussed in the ionic picture using a triple-exchange model for electron hopping as well as a half-metal utilizing a band picture.

South Sulawesi A.D 1300-1600: ten bugis texts
Creators: name: Caldwell, Ian
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988

description: The text sets out to examine ten Bugis works written in the Bugis-Makasar script, which purport to speak of South Sulawesi before the formal acceptance of Islam in the early seventeenth century. Chapter One discusses the various philological problems of transcribing, translating and editing Bugis works, and sets out the methodology to be followed. Chapter Two consists of the texts in Romanized transcription and English-language translation. Each text is prefaced by a brief introduction which discusses the pre­vious history of publication (if any), the manuscript versions representing the work and the selection of a single manuscript for editing; the date of composition and the work as a historical source are briefly discussed. Chapter Three looks at the relationship between history and writing for the pre­ Islamic period. This leads to an examination of the evidence for the origins of literacy in South Sulawesi,and the definition of the period covered by the following historical enquiry as circa A.D.1300-1600. The characteristics of Bugis sources for this period are then briefly outlined. Chapter Four describes the general features of pre-Islamic South Sulawesi Society as they appear from Bugis and Makasar sources. Where possible, the evidence of­fered by the sources is examined against anthropological and archaeological data. Chapter Five looks at some questions regarding the political history of pre-Islamic South Sulawesi. These questions concern the location and origins of specific chief­doms, their internal organization, their historical expansion or decline, and their In­fluence, if any, outside the region with which they have been more recently as­sociated. In setting into context the conclusions suggested by the new data, the evidence of published Bugis and European sources is briefly re-examined.

description: We present the photometric calibration of the twelve optical passbands observed by the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS). The proposed calibration method has four steps: (i) definition of a high-quality set of calibration stars using Gaia information and available 3D dust maps; (ii) anchoring of the J-PLUS gri passbands to the Pan-STARRS photometric solution, accounting for the variation of the calibration with the position of the sources on the CCD; (iii) homogenization of the photometry in the other nine J-PLUS filters using the dust de-reddened instrumental stellar locus in (X - r) versus (g - i) colours, where X is the filter to calibrate. The zero point variation along the CCD in these filters was estimated with the distance to the stellar locus. Finally, (iv) the absolute colour calibration was obtained with the white dwarf locus. We performed a joint Bayesian modelling of eleven J-PLUS colour-colour diagrams using the theoretical white dwarf locus as reference. This provides the needed offsets to transform instrumental magnitudes to calibrated magnitudes outside the atmosphere. The uncertainty of the J-PLUS photometric calibration, estimated from duplicated objects observed in adjacent pointings and accounting for the absolute colour and flux calibration errors, are ~19 mmag in u, J0378 and J0395, ~11 mmag in J0410 and J0430, and ~8 mmag in g, J0515, r, J0660, i, J0861, and z. We present an optimized calibration method for the large area multi-filter J-PLUS project, reaching 1-2% accuracy within an area of 1 022 square degrees without the need for long observing calibration campaigns or constant atmospheric monitoring. The proposed method will be adapted for the photometric calibration of J-PAS, that will observe several thousand square degrees with 56 narrow optical filters.

description: The phytoremediation capacity of Paspalum fasciculatum Willd. ex Flüggé, was evaluated in soils from a gold mine contaminated with cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb), using three concentration levels of each metal (15, 30, and 50 mg kg−1). Their ability to assimilate Cd and Pb in its different tissues was evaluated during 90 days of exposure. Plant growth behavior, accumulation of Cd and Pb, and translocation (TF) and bioaccumulation (BAF) factors were also determined. During the first 60 days of exposure, Cd had an inductive effect on the growth of P. fasciculatum; however, after 90 days, this metal had begun to show toxic effects. Plants showed a similar pattern of accumulating Cd and Pb in their tissues with concentrations decreasing in the order roots > leaves > stem. However, the accumulated concentrations of Cd were generally higher than those of Pb with the highest metal uptakes being observed during the first 30 days of exposure. P. fasciculatum was shown to have a phytostabilization effect with regard to Cd, high concentrations of metals in tissues and little translocation, whereas it showed phytoextraction capacity for Pb. In addition, it can increase pH and organic matter in the soil rhizosphere.

The Catholic-Marxist ideological dialogue in Poland (1945-1980)
Creators: name: Zmijewski, Norbert A.
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988

description: In this thesis I examine first the attitudes of the Catholic groups toward Marxist ideology and the policy of the Party and secondly the attempts of Marxists to overcome a crisis of their philosophy by discussing the Catholic ideas. In the last chapter I discuss the philosophies of Karol Wojtyla and Leszek Kolakowski - the two outstanding philosophical outcomes of the Catholic-Marxists dialogue. The arguments discussed in this thesis fall into two groups: those contributing to the process by which Catholicism developed into a philosophy of opposition and those illustrating the disintegration of Catholic and Marxist social doctrines. I argue that the nature of the dialogue significantly influenced political and intellectual life in Poland.

description: Recent studies explored whether attitude formation in early childhood can be explained in terms of evaluative conditioning (EC), the change in liking that is due to the pairing of stimuli. This study sought to replicate and extend this line of research by investigating whether and under what conditions preschool children generalise EC effects from conditioned to novel stimuli. Specifically, two experiments were conducted in which 3- to 6-year-old children (N = 139) observed the pairing of two cartoon characters with two positive and negative images. Afterwards, children evaluated the paired characters as well as other novel characters, which were not previously presented, that varied systematically in their perceptual similarity to the conditioned stimuli (Experiments 1 & 2), or that could be grouped by a categorisation rule (Experiment 2). It was found that children generalised attitudes to perceptually similar stimuli, but not to stimuli related by a categorisation rule, despite evidence for rule-learning. Implications of these findings for attitude development are discussed.

description: In this paper, we develop a local Fourier analysis of multigrid methods based on block-structured relaxation schemes for stable and stabilized mixed finite-element discretizations of the Stokes equations, to analyze their convergence behavior. Three relaxation schemes are considered: distributive, Braess-Sarazin, and Uzawa relaxation. From this analysis, parameters that minimize the local Fourier analysis smoothing factor are proposed for the stabilized methods with distributive and Braess-Sarazin relaxation. Considering the failure of the local Fourier analysis smoothing factor in predicting the true two-grid convergence factor for the stable discretization, we numerically optimize the two-grid convergence predicted by local Fourier analysis in this case. We also compare the efficiency of the presented algorithms with variants using inexact solvers. Finally, some numerical experiments are presented to validate the two-grid and multigrid convergence factors.

description: Cave lithifying systems are excellent models to study biomineralization in the dark. The Chimalacatepec Lava Tube System in Mexico harbors diverse biospeleothems where previous studies suggest that the formation of opaline terrestrial stromatolites is related to microorganisms in contiguous mats. However, there is no information regarding their characterization and their role in mineral formation. In this study, we characterized the bacterial and archaeal composition of microbial mats and stromatolites and suggested the main processes involved in the genesis of opaline stromatolites. Our results showed that the microbial mats and stromatolites have a similar 16S rRNA gene composition, but stromatolites contain more Actinobacteria, which have been previously found in other lava tubes together with other key bacteria. Microorganisms found here belonged to groups with the potential to fix carbon and degrade organic matter. We propose that the synergic interaction of autotrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms that thrive in the dark might be inducing carbonate precipitation within the Ca-enriched extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), generating opal-A and calcite laminae. The similar 16S rRNA gene fingerprint and the presence of potential pathways that induce carbonate precipitation in opaline stromatolites and microbial mats suggest that microbial mats lithify and contribute to the stromatolite biotic genesis.

description: With the wide application of nanometer materials in daily life, people pay more attention to the potential toxicity of nanoparticles to human fetal development once the nanoparticles are absorbed into the human body during pregnancy. However, there was no directly solid evidence for ZnO NPs-caused congenital heart defects. Hence, we investigated the effect of ZnO NPs exposure on early cardiogenesis using the chicken/mouse embryo models. First, we showed ZnO NPs reduced H9c2 cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner, while cell autophagy was significantly activated too on the same pattern. During early cardiogenesis, ZnO NPs exposure increased the chance of heart tube malformation, while precardiac cell apoptosis rises in the phenotype of closure defect and Bifida. The hypertrophy was also observed in late-stage chicken/mouse survival embryos exposed to ZnO NPs. Apart from cell apoptosis, high-dose ZnO NPs exposure led to massive programmed necrosis, and further experiments verified that ferroptosis remained primarily in ZnO NPs-induced programmed necrosis. We also revealed that the toxicology of low-dose ZnO NPs was mainly featured in the changes of expressions of key genes instead of causing precardiac cell death. MYL2 and CSRP3 could work as the downstream molecules of the above key genes in the context of ZnO NPs exposure to early cardiogenesis based on RNA sequencing. Taken together, this study for the first time revealed the potential risk of heart tube malformation induced by ZnO NPs exposure through different cellular mechanisms, which depended on low- or high-dose ZnO NPs.

description: The generalized and extended uncertainty principles affect the Newtonian gravity and also the geometry of the thermodynamic phase space. Under the influence of the latter, the energy-temperature relation of ideal gas may change. Moreover, it seems that the Newtonian gravity is modified in the framework of the Rényi entropy formalism motivated by both the long-range nature of gravity, and the extended uncertainty principle. Here, the consequences of employing the generalized and extended uncertainty principles, instead of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, on the Jeans mass are studied. The results of working in the Rényi entropy formalism are also addressed. It is shown that unlike the extended uncertainty principle and the Rényi entropy formalism which lead to the same increase in the Jeans mass, the generalized uncertainty principle can decrease it. The latter means that a cloud with mass smaller than the standard Jeans mass, obtained in the framework of the Newtonian gravity, may also undergo the gravitational collapse process.

Economic nationalism and the Third World State: the political economy of the Indonesian automotive industry, 1950-1984
Creators: name: Chalmers, Ian M.
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988

description: At the theoretical level, the purpose of this thesis is to examine how the relationship between state and capital in devel­oping countries changes during the process of industrialisation. In Indonesia, automobile production is frequently championed as a symbol of economic nationalism and an example of successful industrialisation. This study attempts to identify the social forces influencing policy in this politically-important industry. It traces its evolution, showing how the state-business relationship passed through a number of distinct stages. Using a typology of the social forces behind state intervention in the economies qf the Third World, different theoretical models are used to elucidate these periods in the industry's development. The essentially ideological objective of fostering the development of a national automotive industry had become entren­ched within the bureaucracy by the early 1960s. Following the overthrow of President Sukarno's Old Order in 1966,the modern sector was opened up to foreign capital and such symbols of official economic nationalism were repudiated. Patrimonial state-business relations became the norm, as state intervention restructured ownership to attract foreign investment. During a revival of economic nationalism in the early 1970s, however, a handful of indigenous capitalists became prominent advocates of­ automotive industrialisation. State-business alliances were established which induced certain international automotive firms to support important manufacturing initiatives. These successes in turn reaffirmed the state commitment to automotive industria­ lisation. By the early 1980s, formidable political and bureauc­ratic forces were once more promoting the industry -- now a symbol of the New Order's nationalist development strategy. A considerable expansion in state authority was necessary to coordinate foreign and national investment in the industry, but state instrumentalities have not come to dominate. The internationalisation that accompanied the production programme was also accompanied by the steady concentration of ownership. To realise its policy objectives, the state has come to depend on investments by subsidiaries of international automotive firms, business conglomerates that now wield considerable influence over policy implementation. Automotive development policy has thus become the expression of a mutual dependence, linking those sectors of the state promoting industrialisation to the internationalised sector of national capital.

description: In recent years, the class of energy-conserving methods named Hamiltonian Boundary Value Methods (HBVMs) has been devised for numerically solving Hamiltonian problems. In this short note, we study their natural formulation as continuous-stage Runge-Kutta(-Nyström) methods, which allows a deeper insight in the methods.

Thermal Re-emission Model

description: Starting from a continuum description, we study the non-equilibrium roughening of a thermal re-emission model for etching in one and two spatial dimensions. Using standard analytical techniques, we map our problem to a generalized version of an earlier non-local KPZ (Kardar-Parisi-Zhang) model. In 2+1 dimensions, the values of the roughness and the dynamic exponents calculated from our theory go like $ α\approx z \approx 1 $ and in 1+1 dimensions, the exponents resemble the KPZ values for low vapor pressure, supporting experimental results. Interestingly, Galilean invariance is maintained althrough.

description: We develop a theory of non-linear growth direction transport in magnetically doped II-VI compound semiconductor multiple-quantum-well systems. We find that the formation of electric field domains can be controlled by manipulating the space dependence of the band electron spin-polarization, using its exchange coupling to local moments. We emphasize the importance of band electron spin relaxation in limiting the strength of these effects.

States, parties and socialist revolutions

description: The structure/agency dilemma remains one of the most contentious issues in modem sociology. This thesis examines the relationship between these concepts in the light of theories of revolutions. The types of revolution analysed are socialist revolutions, defined as Marxistinspired regime transformations accompanied by widespread revolt from below. The argument advanced is that the origins and development of socialist movements to the position of state power is more complex than the dominant structuralist paradigm assumes. No model of socialist revolutions can be adequate without combining long-term structuralist considerations of social process with short-to-medium purposive factors such as political mobilisation, organisation and ideology. This thesis adopts a comparative historical analysis to support this claim. Using two apparently dissimilar cases, the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia and the Sandinista Revolution in Nicaragua, it is argued that despite spatial and temporal differences a generalisable set of factors can be advanced which explain the occurrence of socialist revolutions.

description: By connecting light to magnetism, cavity-magnon-polaritons (CMPs) can build links from quantum computation to spintronics. As a consequence, CMP-based information processing devices have thrived over the last five years, but almost exclusively been investigated with single-tone spectroscopy. However, universal computing applications will require a dynamic control of the CMP on demand and within nanoseconds. In this work, we perform fast manipulations of the different CMP modes with independent but coherent pulses to the cavity and magnon system. We change the state of the CMP from the energy exchanging beat mode to its normal modes and further demonstrate two fundamental examples of coherent manipulation: First, a dynamic control over the appearance of magnon-Rabi oscillations, i.e., energy exchange, and second, a complete energy extraction by applying an anti-phase drive to the magnon. Our results show a promising approach to control different building blocks for a quantum internet and pave the way for further magnon-based quantum computing research.

Photo-acoustic tomography in a rotating setting

description: Photo-acoustic tomography is a coupled-physics (hybrid) medical imaging modality that aims to reconstruct optical parameters in biological tissues from ultrasound measurements. As propagating light gets partially absorbed, the resulting thermal expansion generates minute ultrasonic signals (the photo-acoustic effect) that are measured at the boundary of a domain of interest. Standard inversion procedures first reconstruct the source of radiation by an inverse ultrasound (boundary) problem and second describe the optical parameters from internal information obtained in the first step. This paper considers the rotating experimental setting. Light emission and ultrasound measurements are fixed on a rotating gantry, resulting in a rotation-dependent source of ultrasound. The two-step procedure we just mentioned does not apply. Instead, we propose an inversion that directly aims to reconstruct the optical parameters quantitatively. The mapping from the unknown (absorption and diffusion) coefficients to the ultrasound measurement via the unknown ultrasound source is modeled as a composition of a pseudo-differential operator and a Fourier integral operator. We show that for appropriate choices of optical illuminations, the above composition is an elliptic Fourier integral operator. Under the assumption that the coefficients are unknown on a sufficiently small domain, we derive from this a (global) injectivity result (measurements uniquely characterize our coefficients) combined with an optimal stability estimate. The latter is the same as that obtained in the standard (non-rotating experimental) setting.
