Strategies of Promoting the Use of Survey Research Data Archive
Creators: name: Meng-Li Yang
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2012

description: The Survey Research Data Archive (SRDA) at Academia Sinica in Taiwan has large collections of data from both the government and the academia. In a recent survey on the more than 3,000 active researchers in humanities and social sciences, however, 52% did not hear of SRDA. Among those who ever tried SRDA but gave up (N=257), 17% complained that information provided about data sets was insufficient for an effective search, and another 17% said similarly that they could not find what they needed. Basically, the improvements that SRDA must make are sketched in the above survey results, i.e., the promotion of SRDA and better and more metadata for the archived datasets. For these goals, we devise several strategies. First, produce demonstrations of uses of survey data sets on the website. Second, make power point files of SRDA introductions and send them to college professors for use in class or for research reference. Third, revise abstracts and keywords of datasets. Fourth, construct metadata on Nesstar. Fifth, add a search function that bridges the gap between the restricted and non-restricted data collections.

description: We investigate a conjecture to describe the characters of large families of RCFT's in terms of contour integrals of Feigin-Fuchs type. We provide a simple algorithm to determine the modular S-matrix for arbitrary numbers of characters as a sum over paths. Thereafter we focus on the case of 2, 3 and 4 characters, where agreement between the critical exponents of the integrals and the characters implies that the conjecture is true. In these cases, we compute the modular S-matrix explicitly, verify that it agrees with expectations for known theories, and use it to compute degeneracies and multiplicities of primaries. We also compute S in an 8-character example to provide additional evidence for the original conjecture. On the way we note that the Verlinde formula provides interesting constraints on the critical exponents of RCFT in this context.

description: Power-suppressed corrections coming from the end-point integration regions in the amplitude of the process $γ^{*}γ\to ππ$ at large $Q^2$ and small squared center-of-mass energy $W^2$ are calculated in the QCD hard-scattering approach where the amplitudes factorize in a hard perturbatively calculable part and a generalized distribution amplitude. The running coupling method and the technique of infrared renormalon calculus are applied to obtain Borel resummed expressions for the two main components of the process amplitude. Numerical estimates for these power corrections are presented. They are sizeable when $Q^2 < 10 GeV^2$.

Open Data in Slovenia: An Assessment of Accountability among Stakeholders
Creators: name: Stebe, Janez
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2012

description: Social science data archives (ADP) hold a project with the short title 'Open data'. The goal is to articulate a general strategy of open research data access in Slovenia, in all scientific disciplines and in accordance with OECD principles. In order to assess the initial conditions in the area of data handling in a country we conducted a series of half-structured interviews with different target stakeholders. The emphasis was on stories about the problems foreseen in open data access, and about suggested solutions to overcome barriers. We would like to present results of that preliminary study. The questions were about the accountability and mutual expectations of various stakeholders such as data creators and users, specialised services (e.g. research libraries) and policymakers. We inquired about the existence of specialised competencies, and need for collaboration of different professional communities. Comparison with studies about situations in other countries shows prevailing similarity. Slovene scientific community expressed high level of awareness about best practices in data handling that steam from intensive international cooperation. Concern was expressed about the lack of policy of incentives to motivate additional data exchange, and little support infrastructure, together with the need to develop additional competencies in information service oriented activities.

description: In this paper, we present astrophysical parameters of the open cluster King 13 based on the VI CCD and 2MASS JHKs photometric data. This is a poorly studied cluster, for which new results have been found in the present work. To identify probable members, we use proper motion data from Gaia DR2 catalogue. The mean proper motion of the cluster is determined as -2.8 \pm 0.2 and -0.88 \pm 0.14 mas yr{-1} and cluster extent is derived as 3'.2. Using color-magnitude diagrams, we estimate the age and distance of the cluster as 510 \pm 60 Myr and 3.84 \pm 0.15 kpc respectively. Interstellar reddening E(B-V) in the direction of the cluster is determined as 0.80 \pm 0.2 mag using color-color diagram. Mass function slope of the cluster is found to be comparable with the Salpeter value. The total mass of this cluster is derived as 270 M_{\odot}. The present analysis shows that King 13 is a dynamically relaxed cluster.

description: Soybean and lupine belong to legumes and their seeds are a valuable source of vegetable protein. Therefore, due to successively growing animal production, in Poland and other countries of the European Union, it is promoted to increase the area of cultivation of these plants, especially in the context of food security. However, if farmers should grow them, if has to be profitable. The aim of the study was to assess of economic effectiveness from cultivation of soybean and sweet lupin in individual farms in Poland. Data on production, direct costs and expenditure on growing soybean and lupine were collected in 2015 and 2017 in the AGROKOSZTY system. Data on indirect costs came from the Polish FADN. The study mainly uses vertical comparative analysis. It was shown, that in 2017 the cultivation of both cultivars generated a higher income than in 2015. However, sweet lupine cultivation was profitable in 2015 and in 2017, while soybean only in 2017. / Streszczenie. Soja i łubin należą do roślin bobowatych, a ich nasiona są cennym źródłem białka.

description: We develop a theory to compute the domain-wall magnetoresistance (DWMR) in antiferromagnetic (AFM) metals with different spin structures. In the diffusive transport regime, the DWMR can be either {\it negative} or positive depending on the domain-wall orientation and spin structure. In contrast, when the transport is in the ballistic regime, the DWMR is always positive, and the magnitude depends on the width and orientation of the domain wall. Our results pave the way of using electrical measurements for probing the internal spin structure in antiferromagnetic metals.

description: By using the Green-function concept of quantization of the electromagnetic field in dispersing and absorbing media, the quantized field in the presence of a dispersing and absorbing dielectric multilayer plate is studied. Three-dimensional input-output relations are derived for both amplitude operators in the ${\bf k}$-space and the field operators in the coordinate space. The conditions are discussed, under which the input-output relations can be expressed in terms of bosonic operators. The theory applies to both (effectively) free fields and fields, created by active atomic sources inside and/or outside the plate, including also evanescent-field components.

A novel class of stabilized greedy kernel approximation algorithms: Convergence, stability & uniform point distribution

description: Kernel based methods provide a way to reconstruct potentially high-dimensional functions from meshfree samples, i.e., sampling points and corresponding target values. A crucial ingredient for this to be successful is the distribution of the sampling points. Since the computation of an optimal selection of sampling points may be an infeasible task, one promising option is to use greedy methods. Although these methods may be very effective, depending on the specific greedy criterion the chosen points might quickly lead to instabilities in the computation. To circumvent this problem, we introduce and investigate a new class of \textit{stabilized} greedy kernel algorithms, which can be used to create a scale of new selection strategies. We analyze these algorithms, and in particular we prove convergence results and quantify in a precise way the distribution of the selected points. These results allow to prove, in the case of certain Sobolev kernels, that the algorithms have optimal stability and optimal convergence rates, including for functions outside the native space of the kernel. The results also apply to the case of the usual $P$-greedy algorithm, significantly improving state-of-the-art results available in the literature. Illustrative experiments are presented that support the theoretical findings.

description: A new kind of overset grid, named Yin-Yang grid, for spherical geometry is proposed. The Yin-Yang grid is composed of two identical component grids that are combined in a complemental way to cover a spherical surface with partial overlap on their boundaries. Each component grid is a low latitude part of the latitude-longitude grid. Therefore the grid spacing is quasi-uniform and the metric tensors are simple and analytically known. One can directly apply mathematical and numerical resources that have been written in the spherical polar coordinates or latitude-longitude grid. The complemental combination of the two identical component grids enables us to make efficient and concise programs. Simulation codes for geodynamo and mantle convection simulations using finite difference scheme based on the Yin-Yang grid are developed and tested. The Yin-Yang grid is suitable for massively parallel computers.

description: This paper describes a simple method for determination of diclofenac using a gold electrode modified with functionalised multiwalled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs)/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite film and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Electrochemical deposition method was employed for immobilisation of AuNPs at the surface of f-MWCNTs-GO nanocomposite film. The microscopic structure and morphology of the prepared films at the surface of the electrode were characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used to study the electrochemical behaviour of diclofenac molecules. The effect of several parameters such as pH, electrodeposition time and the amount of nanocomposite controlling the performance of the sensor was examined and they were optimised. The proposed sensor showed an excellent catalytic activity towards the oxidation of diclofenac molecules. The oxidation peak current of diclofenac was linear in the concentration ranges of 0.4–80 µM and 100–1000 µM with a detection limit of 0.09 μM. The modified electrode was used for the quantitative determination of diclofenac in water, tablet and human urine samples where it gave recoveries ranging between 98.8% and 105%

Suppose the Hamiltonian is non-trivial, i.e., not a multiple of the identity, and L-local, in the sense of containing interaction terms involving at most L bodies, for some fixed L. We construct quantum states ψwhich are ``far away'' from all the eigenstates E of any non-trivial L-local Hamiltonian, in the sense that |ψ-E| is greater than some constant lower bound, independent of the form of the Hamiltonian.

description: Motivated by a recent experiment [Chikkatur, et al. Science, 296, 2193 (2002)] on the merging of atomic condensates, we investigate how two independent condensates with random initial phases can develop a unique relative phase when we move them together. In the adiabatic limit, the uniting of independent condensates can be understood from the eigenstate evolution of the governing Hamiltonian, which maps degenerate states (corresponding to fragmented condensates) to a single state (corresponding to a united condensate) . In the non-adiabatic limit corresponding to the practical experimental configurations, we give an explanation on why we can still get a large condensate fraction with a unique relative phase. Detailed numerical simulations are then performed for the non-adiabatic merging of the condensates, which confirm our explanation and qualitative estimation. The results may have interesting implications for realizing a continuous atom laser based on merging of condensates.

description: A random composition of $n$ appears when the points of a random closed set $\widetilde{\mathcal{R}}\subset[0,1]$ are used to separate into blocks $n$ points sampled from the uniform distribution. We study the number of parts $K_n$ of this composition and other related functionals under the assumption that $\widetilde{\mathcal{R}}=ϕ(S_{\bullet})$, where $(S_t,t\geq0)$ is a subordinator and $ϕ:[0,\infty]\to[0,1]$ is a diffeomorphism. We derive the asymptotics of $K_n$ when the Lévy measure of the subordinator is regularly varying at 0 with positive index. Specializing to the case of exponential function $ϕ(x)=1-e^{-x}$, we establish a connection between the asymptotics of $K_n$ and the exponential functional of the subordinator.

description: Dark matter haloes play a fundamental role in cosmological structure formation. The most common approach to model their assembly mechanisms is through N-body simulations. In this work we present an innovative pathway to predict dark matter halo formation from the initial density field using a Deep Learning algorithm. We implement and train a Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) to solve the task of retrieving Lagrangian patches from which dark matter halos will condense. The volumetric multi-label classification task is turned into a regression problem by means of the euclidean distance transformation. The network is complemented by an adaptive version of the watershed algorithm to form the entire protohalo identification pipeline. We show that splitting the segmentation problem into two distinct sub-tasks allows for training smaller and faster networks, while the predictive power of the pipeline remains the same. The model is trained on synthetic data derived from a single full N-body simulation and achieves deviations of ~10% when reconstructing the dark matter halo mass function at z=0. This approach represents a promising framework for learning highly non-linear relations in the primordial density field. As a practical application, our method can be used to produce mock dark matter halo catalogues directly from the initial conditions of N-body simulations.

description: The aim of the present study is to remove dyes from aqueous solutions since the dye compounds are harmful to human life and the environment. Nano-zero-valent iron particles were synthesised and used to remove the synchronisation of Direct Red-31 (DR-31) and Direct Brown-2 (DB-2). Nano-zero-valent iron particles were characterised using SEM (scanning electron microscopy) and XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) analysis. The effects of five influential variables were investigated on the dye removal including DR-31 and DB-2 concentrations (4–20 mg L−1), NZVI dosage (0.15–0.95 g), pH of the solution (5–9) and contact time (20–140 s). In order to improve the conditions, the response surface methodology (RSM) approach was applied using the central composite design (CCD). The response for the removal of DR-31 and DB-2 was predicted second-order polynomial models. The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) presented that second-order models, with high F-value, were so remarkable in order to eliminate the simultaneity of dyes. Based on the results of the perturbation plot, NZVI dosage and pH of the solution had the most effect on the removal of the dye mixture compared to three other factors. The optimum variables are achieved: NZVI dosage (0.75 g), DR-31 concentration (12.00 mg L−1), DB-2 concentration (12.00 mg L−1), contact time (110.00 s) and pH of the solution (6). Under optimal conditions, the removal rate of DR-31 and DB-2 was 91.03% and 94.57%, respectively. The NZVI can be used effectively to salvage pollution problems posed by anionic dyes in the environment.

description: Traditional methods for autonomous driving are implemented with many building blocks from perception, planning and control, making them difficult to generalize to varied scenarios due to complex assumptions and interdependencies. Recently, the end-to-end driving method has emerged, which performs well and generalizes to new environments by directly learning from export-provided data. However, many existing methods on this topic neglect to check the confidence of the driving actions and the ability to recover from driving mistakes. In this paper, we develop an uncertainty-aware end-to-end trajectory generation method based on imitation learning. It can extract spatiotemporal features from the front-view camera images for scene understanding, and then generate collision-free trajectories several seconds into the future. The experimental results suggest that under various weather and lighting conditions, our network can reliably generate trajectories in different urban environments, such as turning at intersections and slowing down for collision avoidance. Furthermore, closed-loop driving tests suggest that the proposed method achieves better cross-scene/platform driving results than the state-of-the-art (SOTA) end-to-end control method, where our model can recover from off-center and off-orientation errors and capture 80% of dangerous cases with high uncertainty estimations.

Simulating Intuition : Explorations of an Applied Fluid Vernacular
Creators: name: Caddy, Stephen
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: As society furthers its understandings of the impact architectural design decisions can impose on natural processes, the desire for architectural projects to show increased awareness of technical thinking is becoming invaluable. However, traditional architectural pedagogy offers limited technical training. This lack of holistic understanding on the designer’s behalf supports a perpetual reliance on external specialists to carry out performance analysis. This thesis is an exploration on effective design process augmentation in the attempt to create performative design tools that are accessible to a wider range of design experts. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the realm of simulation and computer aided design that engages the multiphysics coupling of flow kinetics and heat transfer. Through the knowability of CFD, this thesis hypothesizes that mixed mode ventilation can become more accessible if it approaches the reliability of mechanical systems. But to what extent is simulating digital environments a necessity. Through processes of experimentation, the thesis provides insight on the simulated versus the intuitive. Could a more fluidly aware architecture be achievable through cognitive processes alone? Can adjustments to architectural teaching provide just as much effective fluid design as the most cutting-edge building simulation techniques? The development of this fluid vernacular is carried out in the creation of an office space that utilizes waste heat flows generated from an adjoining data center facility. In what new ways can designing for fluid efficiencies not only provide improved comfort but create new avenues of tangible architectural experience.

Panel: Preserving and Organising Qualitative Social Science Data Resources for Sharing and Re-use
Creators: name: Geraghty, Ruth
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2012

description: The session will be the shared responsibility of the DDI Alliance Exchange Qualitative data Working Group (Contact: Anne Sofie Fink, asf@dda.dk) Qualitative social science research generates complex data in a wide range of formats, including text, audio and visual. Making such materials available and usable to other researchers for secondary analysis requires professional standards of documentation and preparation of data, appropriate licensing arrangements, and ongoing data management and user support. A key initiative on standards and data management is taken by the DDI Alliance Qualitative Data Working Group. The group has proposed a conceptual meta model adding to the DDI-Lifecycle for qualitative data resources. An accompanying paper presents the challenges for a unified approach towards managing, archiving and accessing qualitative data, use of a controlled vocabulary for producing metadata as well as a requirement analysis. Additionally the paper introduces a number of cutting-edge tools for sharing and re-using qualitative data developed by data archives, universities and organisations. The session invites papers addressing all issues related to the title: "Preserving and organising qualitative social science data resources for sharing and re-use on".
Consequences of Leading-Logarithm Summation for the Radiative Breakdown of Standard-Model Electroweak Symmetry

description: In the empirically sensible limit in which QCD, t-quark Yukawa, and scalar-field-interaction coupling constants dominate all other Standard-Model coupling constants, we sum all leading-logarithm terms within the perturbative expansion for the effective potential that contribute to the extraction of the Higgs boson mass via radiative electroweak symmetry breaking. A Higgs boson mass of 216 GeV emerges from such terms, as well as a scalar-field-interaction coupling constant substantially larger than that anticipated from conventional spontaneous symmetry breaking. The sum of the effective potential's leading logarithms is shown to exhibit a local minimum in the limit $ϕ\to 0$ if the QCD coupling constant is sufficiently strong, suggesting (in a multiphase scenario) that electroweak physics may provide the mechanism for choosing the asymptotically-free phase of QCD.

description: Temporal variations of Cu(In,Ga)Se$_2$ photovoltaic device properties during light exposure at various temperatures and voltage biases for times up to 100 h were analyzed using the kinetic theory of large lattice relaxations. Open-circuit voltage and p-type doping increased with charge injection and decreased with temperature at low injection conditions. Lattice relaxation can account for both trends and activation energies extracted from the data were approximately 0.9 and 1.2 eV for devices with lower and higher sodium content, respectively. In these devices, increased sodium content resulted in higher initial p-type doping with greater stability. First principles calculations providing revised activation energies for the ($V_{Se}-V_{Cu}$) complex suggest that this defect does not account for the metastability observed here.

description: Two trapped ions that are kilometers apart can be entangled by the joint detection of two photons, each coming from one of the ions, in a basis of entangled states. Such a detection is possible with linear optical elements. The use of two-photon interference allows entanglement distribution without interferometric sensitivity to the path length of the photons. The present method of creating entangled ions also opens up the possibility of a loophole-free test of Bell's inequalities.

Panel: Towards an Integrated Model for Access to Official Microdata in Europe: First Findings from the FP7 DwB Project
Creators: name: Silberman, Roxane
name: Wittenberg, Marion
name: Raphaelle Fleureux
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2012

description: The session will present for discussions some preliminary outputs from the FP7 Data without Boundaries project about standards and harmonization issues for discovery, metadata, accreditation and access to official microdata within the European context. M. Wittenberg, M.Priddy, J.Sherpherdson ("Desired portal functionality for effective resource discovery on OS data across Europe") present the work undertaken about desired portal functionality for effective resource discovery: researchers expectations, constraints due to diversity in content and technical level of the various resources, metadata issues and identify the next steps for a possible architecture for the portal. C.Jayet, R.Fleureux, A. Mack, Ch. Wolf "(Servicing researchers in the use of European OS microdata") set forth the tools employed to cope with the difficulties encountered in using the existing metadata standards (DDI2 and 3) in the specific European case when documenting study programmes, studies and datasets from numerous institutions and countries and the metadata scheme proposed for documenting European official microdata both at national and European level with the aim of building a Service Centre for OS microdata in Europe. R. Silberman, P. Tubaro, M. Cros, B. Kleiner ("Access to official microdata and researcher accreditation: State of the art and future perspectives in Europe") map similarities and differences in national access and accreditation arrangements while pointing at commonalities for inter-operability and, ideally, adoption of common standards. D. Schiller ("A pilot for an European Remote Access Network - first results and upcoming challenges") presents preliminary outputs about the concept and architecture of a European distributed remote access for confidential official microdata coping with current legal constraints within Europe, security and standard issues, technical feasibility and researchers needs.

description: 4. Asterella syngenesica (Bory 1804: 95) Grolle & Onraedt (1974: 230)   Family:— Aytoniaceae
 Distribution:— Mauritius and Réunion.
 Habitat:— Shaded soil and rocks, terricolous to humo-terricolous on rocks, 270 - 2350 m, known from 18 localities in Réunion and from 48 records on the island
 Threat:— Populations of this liverwort seem to be widely distributed on the island from low to upper land. It is possible that more investigations will increase the number of localities. As some populations are located closed to urban areas, the possibility that they could be affected in a close future can not be excluded. In Mauritius, the species is known only from two localities.
 IUCN threat category:— NT
 Specimens:— Cirque de Cilaos, Cirque de Salazie, Cirque de Mafate, Dos d’Ane, Heights of Basse Vallée, Makes, Plaine des Cafres, Piton de La Fournaise, Plaine des Palmistes, Takamaka, Valley of Langevin river (Figure 3).

description: We investigate the conditions to entangle two qubits interacting with local environments driven by a continuous-variable correlated field. We find the conditions to transfer the entanglement from the driving field to the qubits both in dynamical and steady-state cases. We see how the quantum correlations initially present in the driving field play a critical role in the entanglement-transfer process. The system we treat is general enough to be adapted to different physical setups.
