The role of bilingual dictionaries in second language learning: a case study of Saudi students in Australia
Creators: name: Almoayidi, Khedir Attaf

description: Using a bilingual dictionary is believed to be an essential element for language learning. Many studies have been conducted that point out the importance of bilingual dictionaries in learning. Among Saudi learners, studies of bilingual dictionary use have all been conducted in Saudi Arabia, and have focused mainly on the purposes for which dictionaries are used and the skills needed by learners. The present research examines Saudi learners studying in an English-speaking environment to explore their perceptions of the role of bilingual dictionary use in their learning and patterns of dictionary use. For this study, ten Saudi students studying in Australia completed a series of comprehension and production tasks based on a short reading passage. Participants were permitted to use electronic or paper bilingual and monolingual dictionaries while completing the tasks. An individual semi-structured interview was then conducted with each participant. Data analysis revealed that bilingual dictionaries, particularly electronic ones, were seen by participants as beneficial in enabling them to find meanings quickly and with minimal effort, as well as allowing them to hear the words pronounced. While participants believed that bilingual dictionaries were suitable for beginners, there was a general view that such dictionaries do not facilitate learning and retention of new vocabulary, and are often misleading as they tend not to provide full contextual meanings. Performance data from the comprehension and production tasks offered some support for these views. Participants regarded monolingual dictionaries as superior in terms of improving learning, promoting word retention, and ‘thinking in English’, but highlighted the need for explicit training in the use of these dictionaries. These findings have implications for both pedagogy and future research.

description: Depression is known to be one of the most common mental disorders raising global concerns. However, evidence regarding the association between short-term air pollution exposure and risk of development of depression is limited. The aim of this was to assess the relationship between short-term ambient air pollution exposure and depression in outpatient visits in Xi’an, a northwestern Chinese metropolis. Data for air pollutants including particulate matter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels from October 1, 2010 to December 31, 2013 and number of daily depression outpatient visits (92,387 in total) were collected. A time-series quasi-Poisson regression model was adopted to determine the association between short-term air pollutant concentrations and frequency of outpatient visits for depression with different lag models. Consequently, 10 μg/m3 increase of SO2 and NO2 levels corresponded to significant elevation in number of outpatient-visits for depression on concurrent days (lag 0), and this relationship appeared stronger in cool seasons (October to March). However, the association of PM10 was only significant in males aged 30–50 at lag 0. Evidence indicated that short-term exposure to ambient air pollutants especially in cool seasons might be associated with increased risk of outpatient visits for depression.

description: Mesoscopic systems -- small electric circuits working in quantum regime -- offer us a unique experimental stage to explorer quantum transport in a tunable and precise way. The purpose of this Review is to show how they can contribute to statistical physics. We introduce the significance of fluctuation, or equivalently noise, as noise measurement enables us to address the fundamental aspects of a physical system. The significance of the fluctuation theorem (FT) in statistical physics is noted. We explain what information can be deduced from the current noise measurement in mesoscopic systems. As an important application of the noise measurement to statistical physics, we describe our experimental work on the current and current noise in an electron interferometer, which is the first experimental test of FT in quantum regime. Our attempt will shed new light in the research field of mesoscopic quantum statistical physics.

description: There has been growing interest in the research of flavonoids due to their potential antiviral activities. Recently, some natural flavonoids have shown potential inhibitory activity against zika virus NS3–NS2B protease. In order to accelerate the drug discovery efforts using flavonoids, a Monte Carlo simulation-based QSAR method has been applied to find out the structural requirements for the inhibitory activity. The best QSAR model was obtained using SMILES descriptors and HSG descriptors with 1EC connectivity with the following statistical parameters: R 2 = 0.9569 and Q 2 = 0.9050 for the test set. The best model was further utilised for the prediction of inhibitory activity of some other natural flavonoids. Four flavonoids (amentoflavone, fisetin, isorhamnetin and theaflavin-3-gallate) have shown higher predicted inhibitory activity and further validated by performing docking analysis. This study may help in understanding and performing natural flavonoids-based drug discovery against zika virus.

description: Let $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}_o$ denote the germ of $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$ at the origin. Let $V$ be a hypersurface germ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}_o$ and $W$ a deformation of $V$ over $\mathbb{C}_{o}^{m}$. Under the hypothesis that $W$ is a Newton non-degenerate deformation, in this article we will prove that $W$ is a $μ$-constant deformation if and only if $W$ admits a simultaneous embedded resolution. This result gives a lot of information about $W$, for example, the topological triviality of the family $W$ and the fact that the natural morphism $(W(\mathbb{C}_o)_m)_{red} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}_{o}$ is flat, where $W(\mathbb{C}_o)_m$ is the relative space of $m$-jets. On the way tothe proof of our main result, we give a complete answer to a question ofArnold on the monotonicity of Newton numbers in the case of convenientNewton polyhedra.

We consider in-medium versions of the scattering amplitudes taking into account Pauli blocking in the intermediate states. The resulting $K^-$ binding energies as well as the widths exhibit the same A dependence, however, the binding energies strongly depend on the model used.

The impact of personality traits on participation in an online cancer community of posters and lurkers
Creators: name: Badreddine, Basma
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of the personality traits of cancer-affected people who are members of an online cancer community on their online posting behaviour. The users in this study were defined as either posters (users that contribute regularly) or lurkers (those who visited the online community but did not contribute). Online cancer communities provide support for cancer-affected people who experience psychological and emotional challenges. Therefore, the long-term viability of the online community needs a way of minimising lurking behaviour and encouraging participation to ensure it meets the needs of all users. That is, we need to better understand why lurkers do not participate and why posters contribute. This study examined the personality traits of both posters and lurkers to determine whether personality traits influence users' decisions to post in an online cancer community. To better understand the personality traits of online cancer community users, qualitative semi-structured interviews incorporating the Five Factor Model (FFM) of personality traits were conducted with 42 users of the Cancer Council Online Community (CCOC) in NSW, Australia. The results showed that the extraversion, emotional stability, and agreeableness traits influence posting behaviour in an online cancer community, whereas the conscientiousness trait influences lurking behaviour. The openness trait does not impact users' online behaviour as posters and lurkers exhibited similar attitudes in their openness trait. The study contributes to the literature by providing insights into the impact personality traits have on the decisions of posters and lurkers to contribute to discussions in an online cancer community -- abstract.

description: Online petitions are an important avenue for direct political action, yet the dynamics that determine when a petition will be successful are not well understood. Here we analyze the temporal characteristics of online-petition signing behavior in order to identify systematic differences between popular petitions, which receive a high volume of signatures, and unpopular ones. We find that, in line with other temporal characterizations of human activity, the signing process is typically non-Poissonian and non-homogeneous in time. However, this process exhibits anomalously high memory for human activity, possibly indicating that synchronized external influence or contagion play and important role. More interestingly, we find clear differences in the characteristics of the inter-event time distributions depending on the total number of signatures that petitions receive, independently of the total duration of the petitions. Specifically, popular petitions that attract a large volume of signatures exhibit more variance in the distribution of inter-event times than unpopular petitions with only a few signatures, which could be considered an indication that the former are more bursty. However, petitions with large signature volume are less bursty according to measures that consider the time ordering of inter-event times. Our results, therefore, emphasize the importance of accounting for time ordering to characterize human activity.

description: Borisov-Joyce constructed a real virtual cycle on compact moduli spaces of stable sheaves on Calabi-Yau 4-folds, using derived differential geometry.
 We construct an algebraic virtual cycle. A key step is a localisation of Edidin-Graham's square root Euler class for $SO(r,\mathbb C)$ bundles to the zero locus of an isotropic section, or to the support of an isotropic cone.
 We prove a torus localisation formula, making the invariants computable and extending them to the noncompact case when the fixed locus is compact.
 We give a $K$-theoretic refinement by defining $K$-theoretic square root Euler classes and their localised versions.
 In a sequel we prove our invariants reproduce those of Borisov-Joyce.

description: We analyze the singularities of rational inner functions on the unit bidisk and study both when these functions belong to Dirichlet-type spaces and when their partial derivatives belong to Hardy spaces. We characterize derivative $H^{\mathfrak{p}}$ membership purely in terms of contact order, a measure of the rate at which the zero set of a rational inner function approaches the distinguished boundary of the bidisk. We also show that derivatives of rational inner functions with singularities fail to be in $H^{\mathfrak{p}}$ for $\mathfrak{p}\ge\frac{3}{2}$ and that higher non-tangential regularity of a rational inner function paradoxically reduces the $H^{\mathfrak{p}}$ integrability of its derivative. We derive inclusion results for Dirichlet-type spaces from derivative inclusion for $H^{\mathfrak{p}}$. Using Agler decompositions and local Dirichlet integrals, we further prove that a restricted class of rational inner functions fails to belong to the unweighted Dirichlet space.

Patient-centred advanced cancer care: a systemic functional linguistic analysis of oncology consultations with advanced cancer patients
Creators: name: Karimi, Neda
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis provides a linguistic description of the practice of patient-centred care based on a corpus of 69 transcribed oncology consultations with advanced cancer patients. Using tools from Halliday’s systemic functional linguistics, the thesis identifies ways in which personhood and patient-centredness is realized semiotically in a series of papers. First, a systematic literature review provides an overview of the previous research on the linguistic operationalisation of patient-centredness and the theoretical approaches applied. This is followed by three types of analyses including (1) looking at the nature of the social context around and enacted by the discourse of oncology consultation and analysing a sub-corpus of10 consultations; (2) looking at how the patients identify themselves and construct their experience and sense of self during the consultations; and (3) considering how two contrasting oncologists in the sample construct their role and that of the patient through their answers to the questions asked by the patients and their companions. The findings suggest that a patient-centred practice involves the enactment of a ‘facilitating’ role by the oncologist. Through this role, the oncologist facilitates a new doctor-patient relationship in which the degree of ‘classification’ and ‘insulation’ (Bernstein, 1990) between them is reduced. The data shows that this is done by considering and discussing the patients’ personal circumstances and their personal lives as affected by the illness as well as through informing the patients about their body, their illness, their options, rights and entitlements, and generally through enabling them to be an informed patient who is the centre of healthcare. Such practice acknowledges that the dying patients are semiotically agentive. It also appreciates the patient’s experience of maintaining a sense of normalcy in the face of a life-limiting illness. A patient-centred practice is further characterised with elaborated reasoning to provide more information and precise information to the conscious and semiotically agentive patient.
Functional Inequalities involving Nonlocal Operators on Complete Riemannian Manifolds and Their Applications to The Fractional Porous Medium Equation

description: The objective of this paper is twofold. First, we conduct a careful study of various functional inequalities involving the fractional Laplacian operators, including nonlocal Sobolev-Poincaré, Nash, Super Poincaré and logarithmic Sobolev type inequalities, on complete Riemannian manifolds satisfying some mild geometric assumptions. Second, based on the derived nonlocal functional inequalities, we analyze the asymptotic behavior of the solution to the fractional porous medium equation, $\partial_t u +(-Δ)^σ(|u|^{m-1}u )=0 $ with $m>0$ and $σ\in (0,1)$. In addition, we establish the global well-posedness of the equation on an arbitrary complete Riemannian manifold.
A Comparison of Circumgalactic MgII Absorption between the TNG50 Simulation and the MEGAFLOW Survey

description: The circumgalactic medium (CGM) contains information on gas flows around galaxies, such as accretion and supernova-driven winds, which are difficult to constrain from observations alone. Here, we use the high-resolution TNG50 cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulation to study the properties and kinematics of the CGM around star-forming galaxies in $10^{11.5}-10^{12}\;M_{\odot}$ halos at $z\simeq$ 1 using mock MgII absorption lines, which we generate by postprocessing halos to account for photoionization in the presence of a UV background. We find that the MgII gas is a very good tracer of the cold CGM, which is accreting inward at inflow velocities of up to 50 km s$^{-1}$. For sight lines aligned with the galaxy's major axis, we find that MgII absorption lines are kinematically shifted due to the cold CGM's significant corotation at speeds up to 50% of the virial velocity for impact parameters up to 60 kpc. We compare mock MgII spectra to observations from the MusE GAs FLow and Wind (MEGAFLOW) survey of strong MgII absorbers ($\rm{EW}^{2796Å}_{0}>0.5 \; Å$). After matching the equivalent-width (EW) selection, we find that the mock MgII spectra reflect the diversity of observed kinematics and EWs from MEGAFLOW, even though the sight lines probe a very small fraction of the CGM. MgII absorption in higher-mass halos is stronger and broader than in lower-mass halos but has qualitatively similar kinematics. The median-specific angular momentum of the MgII CGM gas in TNG50 is very similar to that of the entire CGM and only differs from non-CGM components of the halo by normalization factors of $\lesssim$ 1 dex.

Size-based ion selectivity of micropore electric double layers in capacitive deionization electrodes
Creators: name: Suss, Matthew E.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Chemical Physics (physics.chem-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a fast-emerging technology most commonly applied to brackish water desalination. In CDI, salt ions are removed from the feedwater and stored in electric double layers (EDLs) within micropores of electrically charged porous carbon electrodes. Recent experiments have demonstrated that CDI electrodes exhibit selective ion removal based on ion size, with the smaller ion being preferentially removed in the case of equal-valence ions. However, state-of-the-art CDI theory does not capture this observed selectivity, as it assumes volume-less point ions in the micropore EDLs. We here present a theory which includes multiple couterionic species, and relaxes the point ion assumption by incorporating ion volume exclusion interactions into a description of the micropore EDLs. The developed model is a coupled set of nonlinear algebraic equations which can be solved for micropore ion concentrations and electrode Donnan potential at cell equilibrium. We demonstrate that this model captures key features of the experimentally observed size-based ion selectivity of CDI electrodes.

description: The deformation evolution of giant dipole resonance (GDR), in the chains of Sm and Nd isotopes, are investigated in the framework of an extended quantum molecular dynamics (EQMD) model. The mass number dependence of resonance peak position $(E_{m})$ in the major and minor axis directions of deformed nuclei as well as the difference $ΔE_{m}$ between them are described in detail. The correlation between the splitting ($ΔE_{m} /\bar{E}_m $) of the GDR spectra and the deformation($ β_{2}$) is further studied. The results confirm that $ΔE_{m} /\bar{E}_m $ is proportional to $ β_{2}$. By comparing the calculation with the experimental data on photon absorption cross section $σ_γ$, it shows that the EQMD model can quite well reproduce the shape of GDR spectra from spherical to prolate shape. The GDR shapes in $^{134}$Sm, $^{136}$Sm, $^{138}$Sm, $^{130}$Nd, $^{132}$Nd and $^{134}$Nd are also predicted. In addition, the symmetry energy coefficient $(E_{sym})$ dependence of GDR spectra of $^{150}$Nd is also discussed. It is found that the calculated GDR spectrum in the EQMD model is perfectly consistent with the experimental results when $E_{sym}$ equals to 32 MeV.

Our aim was to assess differences in survival, disease recurrence and histopathological tumor characteristics between patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy followed by subsequent surgery and patients undergoing upfront surgery. Material and methods: Out of 399 consecutive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients operated at Helsinki University Hospital in 2000–2015, 75 borderline resectable patients were treated with neoadjuvant therapy. Resectable propensity scored patients (n = 150) underwent upfront surgery. Neoadjuvant therapy consisted of folfirinox, single gemcitabine or combined with cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel or capecitabine with or without radiation. Survival was calculated with Kaplan–Meier and compared with the Breslow test. Survival was determined from the start of treatment, being the first day of treatment for patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy and the date of surgery for others. Results: Between 2000 and 2015 median disease-specific survival (DSS) [34 vs. 26 months, p = .016] and disease-free survival (DFS) [22 vs. 13 months, p = .001] were longer in patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy than in those undergoing upfront surgery. Survival differences were not significant in the 2000s but were, in turn, among patients treated in the 2010s with better survival for patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy [DSS 35 vs. 26 months, p = .008 and DFS 25 vs. 13 months, p = .001]. Especially patients with poorly differentiated G3 tumors [DSS 30 vs. 11 months, p = .004 and DFS 21 vs. 7 months, p = .001] and higher stage IIB–III [DSS 34 vs. 20 months, p = .006 and DFS 21 vs. 10 months, p = .001] had longer survival when treated with neoadjuvant therapy. Conclusions: PDAC patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy had longer DSS and DFS than those undergoing upfront surgery. Neoadjuvant therapy benefits especially borderline resectable patients with higher stage and poorly differentiated tumors.

description: We employ unsupervised machine learning techniques to learn latent parameters which best describe states of the two-dimensional Ising model and the three-dimensional XY model. These methods range from principal component analysis to artificial neural network based variational autoencoders. The states are sampled using a Monte-Carlo simulation above and below the critical temperature. We find that the predicted latent parameters correspond to the known order parameters. The latent representation of the states of the models in question are clustered, which makes it possible to identify phases without prior knowledge of their existence or the underlying Hamiltonian. Furthermore, we find that the reconstruction loss function can be used as a universal identifier for phase transitions.

description: This paper presents a soft-label anonymous gastric X-ray image distillation method based on a gradient descent approach. The sharing of medical data is demanded to construct high-accuracy computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems. However, the large size of the medical dataset and privacy protection are remaining problems in medical data sharing, which hindered the research of CAD systems. The idea of our distillation method is to extract the valid information of the medical dataset and generate a tiny distilled dataset that has a different data distribution. Different from model distillation, our method aims to find the optimal distilled images, distilled labels and the optimized learning rate. Experimental results show that the proposed method can not only effectively compress the medical dataset but also anonymize medical images to protect the patient's private information. The proposed approach can improve the efficiency and security of medical data sharing.

description: Introduction: Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) impact studies have reported substantial reductions in the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) after implementation of childhood PCV programs. Heterogeneity in surveillance systems, local epidemiology and PCV programs hampers comparisons between studies. We aimed to better understand the impact of childhood PCV programs on overall IPD and serotype distribution. Areas covered: We analyzed the impact of PCV programs on the incidence of overall IPD, and the distribution of vaccine serotypes (VT) and non-vaccine serotypes (NVT) in children <5 years and adults ≥65 years old. We retrieved datasets from observational post-marketing studies and surveillance reports from countries with high-quality surveillance data available for at least 2 years before PCV program initiation and 3 years after higher-valent PCV implementation. We harmonized pre- and post-PCV analysis periods and assessment methods. Expert commentary: After introduction of pediatric PCV programs, the residual overall IPD burden in children was low and in a narrow range across countries with high vaccination coverage, irrespective of differences in PCV programs and pneumococcal epidemiology. Effects on overall IPD were more variable in the elderly. Whereas IPD was mainly due to VTs before PCV introduction, NVTs are the major contributor today in children and adults.

Formalizing Stack Safety as a Security Property

description: The term stack safety is used to describe a variety of compiler, run-time, and hardware mechanisms for protecting stack memory. Unlike "the heap," the ISA-level stack does not correspond to a single high-level language concept: different compilers use it in different ways to support procedural and functional abstraction mechanisms from a wide range of languages. This protean nature makes it difficult to nail down what it means to correctly enforce stack safety.
 We propose a new formal characterization of stack safety using concepts from language-based security. Rather than treating stack safety as a monolithic property, we decompose it into an integrity property and a confidentiality property for each of the caller and the callee, plus a control-flow property: five properties in all. This formulation is motivated by a particular class of enforcement mechanisms, the "lazy" stack safety micro-policies studied by Roessler and DeHon, which permit functions to write into one another's frames but taint the changed locations so that the frame's owner cannot access them. No existing characterization of stack safety captures this style of safety; we capture it here by stating our properties in terms of the observable behavior of the system.
 Our properties go further than previous formal definitions of stack safety, supporting caller- and callee-saved registers, arguments passed on the stack, and tail-call elimination. We validate the properties by using them to distinguish between correct and incorrect implementations of Roessler and DeHon's micro-policies using property-based random testing. Our test harness successfully identifies several broken variants, including Roessler and DeHon's lazy policy; a repaired version of their policy passes our tests.

description: We present a 0.15$^{\prime\prime}$ resolution (21 au) ALMA 870 $μ$m continuum survey of 25 pointings containing 31 young stellar objects in the Ophiuchus molecular clouds. Using the dust continuum as a proxy for dust mass and circumstellar disk radius in our sample, we report a mean mass of 2.8$^{+2.1}_{-1.3}$ and 2.5$^{+9.2}_{-1.1}$ M$_{\oplus}$ and a mean radii of 23.5$^{+1.8}_{-1.2}$ and 16.5$^{+2.8}_{-0.9}$ au, for Class I and Flat spectrum protostars, respectively. In addition, we calculate the multiplicity statistics of the dust surrounding young stellar objects in Ophiuchus. The multiplicity fraction (MF) and companion star fraction (CSF) of the combined Class I and Flats based solely on this work is 0.25 $\pm$ 0.09 and 0.33 $\pm$ 0.10, respectively, which are consistent with the values for Perseus and Orion. While we see clear differences in mass and radius between the Ophiuchus and Perseus/Orion protostellar surveys, we do not see any significant differences in the multiplicities of the various regions. We posit there are some differences in the conditions for star formation in Ophiuchus that strongly affects disk size (and consequently disk mass), but does not affect system multiplicity, which could imply important variation in planet formation processes.

description: A broad range of membrane proteins display anomalous diffusion on the cell surface. Different methods provide evidence for obstructed subdiffusion and diffusion on a fractal space, but the underlying structure inducing anomalous diffusion has never been visualized due to experimental challenges. We addressed this problem by imaging the cortical actin at high resolution while simultaneously tracking individual membrane proteins in live mammalian cells. Our data confirm that actin introduces barriers leading to compartmentalization of the plasma membrane and that membrane proteins are transiently confined within actin fences. Furthermore, superresolution imaging shows that the cortical actin is organized into a self-similar meshwork. These results present a hierarchical nanoscale picture of the plasma membrane.
