description: Developing and implementing a digital preservation strategy requires making decisions that have long-term implications. What is not always visible is that when decisions are made for one attribute – such as file formats – those decisions affect other knowledge management objectives. For instance, “More Product, Less Process” is a method that promotes making collections available more quickly with less focus on granular organization and description to reduce backlogs and improve access. While this approach is more scalable and sustainable, it tends to make items less discoverable, which may create hidden collections. Practitioners regularly encounter similar dilemmas when implementing digital preservation, and the optimum balance between conflicting objectives is not always clear. The Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City is developing a digital preservation strategy for its Research Division and working from an internally produced framework (Gold (AU)DRIPSS) to guide decision-making. This framework comprises the principles of accessibility, usability, discoverability, reproducibility, interoperability, preservability, scalability, and sustainability. It differs from existing frameworks by taking a more holistic approach, including incorporating more institutional and project management considerations as well as recognizing that an optimal preservation strategy may require subjective assessment and trade-offs. This presentation will briefly review the development of the Gold (AU)DRIPSS Framework and discuss how it has been internally applied to support digital preservation.

description: An inelastic light (Raman) scattering study of nematicity and critical fluctuations in ${\rm Ba(Fe_{1-x}Co_x)_2As_2}$ ($0\le x \le 0.051$) is presented. It is shown that the response from fluctuations appears only in $B_{1g}$ (${x^2-y^2}$) symmetry. The scattering amplitude increases towards the structural transition at $T_s$ but vanishes only below the magnetic ordering transition at $T_{\rm SDW} < T_s$, suggesting a magnetic origin of the fluctuations. The theoretical analysis explains the selection rules and the temperature dependence of the fluctuation response. These results make magnetism the favorite candidate for driving the series of transitions.%Below $T_{\rm SDW}$ the gap of the magnetically ordered phase opens up.

description: Personalized prediction is a machine learning approach that predicts a person's future observations based on their past labeled observations and is typically used for sequential tasks, e.g., to predict daily mood ratings. When making personalized predictions, a model can combine two types of trends: (a) trends shared across people, i.e., person-generic trends, such as being happier on weekends, and (b) unique trends for each person, i.e., person-specific trends, such as a stressful weekly meeting. Mixed effect models are popular statistical models to study both trends by combining person-generic and person-specific parameters. Though linear mixed effect models are gaining popularity in machine learning by integrating them with neural networks, these integrations are currently limited to linear person-specific parameters: ruling out nonlinear person-specific trends. In this paper, we propose Neural Mixed Effect (NME) models to optimize nonlinear person-specific parameters anywhere in a neural network in a scalable manner. NME combines the efficiency of neural network optimization with nonlinear mixed effects modeling. Empirically, we observe that NME improves performance across six unimodal and multimodal datasets, including a smartphone dataset to predict daily mood and a mother-adolescent dataset to predict affective state sequences where half the mothers experience at least moderate symptoms of depression. Furthermore, we evaluate NME for two model architectures, including for neural conditional random fields (CRF) to predict affective state sequences where the CRF learns nonlinear person-specific temporal transitions between affective states. Analysis of these person-specific transitions on the mother-adolescent dataset shows interpretable trends related to the mother's depression symptoms.

description: TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology hosts and operates a digital preservation system with three purposes: for the preservation of our own holdings, as a system which two other large German libraries – ZB MED and ZBW – use as tenants for the preservation of their holdings, and as a platform to offer preservation-as-a-service to smaller institutions. The consortial nature of the system hosted and operated by TIB is a setup which isn’t explicitly taken into consideration by documentation accompanying certification procedures so far. Neither the Data Seal of Approval nor the nestor seal foresee a tiered model, where parts of an archival system’s responsibility – e.g., the technical infrastructure – fall into the responsibility of a system other than the one who actually makes archival decisions about the content captured within. Nevertheless, TIB and ZBW separately received the Data Seal of Approval in 2015 and the nestor seal in 2017. The paper presents and critically reflects upon experiences made by TIB during the certification process. It describes the institutional resources which were required to accumulate the required documentation and how they are spread across different organizational units. The authors present incentives for formal certification and discuss if and how these incentives paid off. While combinations of organizational, technological and legal factors make for a plethora of different archives, leading to no two certification processes being the same, the outcome of this paper shall serve as guidance to those thinking about or concretely planning to undergo basic, extended or formal certification. It shall give an insight into resources required, show where potential problems may exist, but also discuss benefits of the process.
Zircon U-Pb Geochronology of the Inish Granite Pluton: Evidence for the long-lived emplacement of the south Connemara Granites
Creators: name: Venugopal, Navina
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: Two new U-Pb geochronology dates from the Inish Granite (main granite: 423.21 ± 0.30
Ma; marginal granite 428 +17/-11 Ma) show that emplacement of the south Connemara Granites
extended from approximately 430 Ma to 380 Ma. These ages are consistent with the recent
model Re-Os age determinations for the Omey Granite (422.5 ± 1.7 Ma) and suggest that the
Letterfrack and Roundstone granites were also emplaced around the same time. Field relations of
the Inish Granite show relative age differences for the main and marginal granite, with
quartz-feldspar porphyry dikes cross-cutting the marginal granite but not the main granite. These
relations suggest that emplacement of the marginal granite occurred, followed by the
quartz-feldspar porphyry dikes, and assembly of the Inish Granite culminated with intrusion of
the main phase. The time span of emplacement of the calc-alkaline south Connemara Granites is
similar to that of the mid-Paleozoic alkalic plutons located in southeastern New England, USA
(426 Ma to 377 Ma), linking hypothesised intraplate rifting in West Avalonia and prolonged
magmatism in Laurentia. This provides further support for the model of Avalonia subduction
beneath Laurentia in the Siluro-Devonian time period, and suggests that the end of magmatic
activity for both suites indicated the complete closure of the Iapetus Ocean.

Mid-infrared Kerr index evaluation via cross-phase modulation with a near-infrared probe beam

description: We propose a simple method to measure nonlinear Kerr refractive index in mid-infrared frequency range that avoids using sophisticated infrared detectors. Our approach is based on using a near-infrared probe beam which interacts with a mid-IR beam via wavelength-non-degenerate cross-phase modulation (XPM). By carefully measuring XPM-induced spectral modifications in the probe beam and comparing the experimental data with simulation results we extract the value for the non-degenerate Kerr index. Finally, in order to obtain the value of degenerate mid-IR Kerr index we use the well-established two-band formalism of Sheik-Bahae et al., which is shown to become particularly simple in the limit of low frequencies. The proposed technique is complementary to the conventional techniques such as z-scan and has the advantage of not requiring any mid-infrared detectors.

description: Dispersal is a key process in ecology and evolutionary biology, as it shapes biodiversity patterns over space and time. Mounting evidence is showing that attitude to disperse is unevenly distributed among individuals within animal populations, and that individual personality can have pivotal roles in the shaping of this attitude. Here, we contribute to the study of the genetic underpinnings of dispersal-related behavioral variation by assembling and annotating the first de novo transcriptome of the head tissues of Salamandra salamandra. Although dispersal occurs mostly during the post-metamorphic terrestrial life stage in this species, variation in dispersal-related personality traits is already evident at the aquatic larval stage, making it an excellent candidate species for studies of carry-over effects. We employed a structured pipeline to de-novo assemble and annotate transcripts from RNA-Seq in a set of individuals representative of distinct behavioral profiles. We obtained 1,153,432,918 reads, which were successfully de novo assembled and annotated. The high-quality assembly was confirmed by comparing BUSCO, DETONATE and TransRate with the S. salamandra dataset. By aligning the contigs against the de novo transcriptome we obtained a percentage of mapping higher than 94%. The homology annotation performed with DIAMOND led to 153,048 (blastx) and 95,942 (blastp) shared contigs, annotated on NCBI nr, Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL. The domain and site protein prediction made with InterProScan led to 9850 GO-annotated contigs. This de-novo transcriptome represents reliable reference for whole transcriptome and proteome studies of other amphibians, for designing primers to clone specific genes or monitor their expression, and for analyzing comparative gene expression profiles between alternative behavioral types.

description: Inferences about the spatial density or phase-space structure of stellar populations in the Milky Way require a precise determination of the effective survey volume. The volume observed by surveys such as Gaia or near-infrared spectroscopic surveys, which have good coverage of the Galactic mid-plane region, is highly complex because of the abundant small-scale structure in the three-dimensional interstellar dust extinction. We introduce a novel framework for analyzing the importance of small-scale structure in the extinction. This formalism demonstrates that the spatially-complex effect of extinction on the selection function of a pencil-beam or contiguous sky survey is equivalent to a low-pass filtering of the extinction-affected selection function with the smooth density field. We find that the angular resolution of current 3D extinction maps is sufficient for analyzing Gaia sub-samples of millions of stars. However, the current distance resolution is inadequate and needs to be improved by an order of magnitude, especially in the inner Galaxy. We also present a practical and efficient method for properly taking the effect of extinction into account in analyses of Galactic structure through an effective selection function. We illustrate its use with the selection function of red-clump stars in APOGEE using and comparing a variety of current 3D extinction maps.

description: Five years ago, at the Getty Research Institute, we implemented the Ex Libris product Rosetta to preserve and provide access to our digital collections, mainly digitized resources from the Institutional Archives and Special Collections, reusing workflows from our former DAM to create METS records and populate the system. Over time it became clear that new processes were required for born-digital material and, furthermore, we would need to accommodate the contrasting needs of Special Collections and Institutional Archives to preserve their born-digital content. For these reasons we have adjusted those original workflows, creating new tools and developing additional deposit processes along the way, with a very small team. Working within the limitations of our digital preservation system and available resources has been challenging. While we have tried to standardize the workflows involved in digitization and digital preservation, we sometimes make adjustments to work with our varied and diverse collections. For example, due to differences in volume and access needs, the processing of Special Collections content tends to involve extensive, hand-edited metadata work while Institutional Archives files are processed in the aggregate. We try to make decisions that follow best practices for digital preservation, but ultimately we’re committed to getting the material into the system quickly, often prior to full processing, so it can be identified, validated, stored redundantly, and made accessible if appropriate, as backlogs continue to grow. In our efforts to preserve as much as possible now, we are likely creating more work for ourselves in the future, a possibility we confront regularly when weighing the importance of preservation needs versus access needs. In this paper, we will discuss these challenges and focus on the practical decisions we have had to make when developing new deposit workflows, or adapting existing ones, on content that is in some way different than what came before. Our discussion will describe our different processes for digitized material and born- digital material both from Institutional Archives and from our Special Collections. We hope to provide guidance for those who are moving forward with “good enough” approaches instead of waiting for some magical day when we have all the time, staffing, and expertise to give our full attention and care to each filestream.

description: This paper provides insights into the Biblioteca Nacional de Mexico (National Library of Mexico)’s efforts to ensure proper stewardship over its digitized and born-digital cultural collections. Since its establishment in 1867, the National Library of Mexico has collected unique and invaluable collections that are at the heart of Mexico's Bibliographic Heritage. It became the national Legal Deposit library in 1936, giving it the responsibility to create and care for the country’s documentary heritage. The Legal Deposit Decree was amended in 1991 in order to include electronic documents. In order to provide greater access to its collections, two main digital platforms were created: the Digital National Newspaper Library and the Digital National Library. This paper outlines the challenges the National Library of Mexico faces in order to preserve and provide long-term access to digital cultural collections and strategies that have been implemented so far. It shows how these impact on old rooted practices and how the library is planning to move forward in establishing sustainable approaches to guarantee the digital preservation of Mexico's documentary heritage.

description: Environmental sustainability is an imperative that has engaged the cultural heritage community for many years. This has taken numerous forms, such as reducing environmental impacts from the built environment, disaster planning and adaptation in the face of climate change, and reevaluating purchasing decisions based on products’ environmental impacts. However, the drive toward environmental sustainability has not been thoroughly explored in relation to digital preservation activities. In this lightning talk, the speakers will present a summary of their research on the environmental impact of digital preservation, and argue for a shift in the way that digital preservation activities are evaluated. The authors propose that sustainable practice will come only from critical examination of the underlying motivations and assumptions of digital preservation practice, and not from improvements in technological efficiencies. The speakers will briefly explore the paradigm shift that is needed in three areas of digital preservation practice: appraisal, permanence, and availability.

description: Η Ελλάδα, από χώρα αποστολής μεταναστών, μετασχηματίστηκε σε χώρα υποδοχής προσφύγων ή/και μεταναστών. Οι σχολικές τάξεις οπωσδήποτε επηρεάστηκαν από αυτό το γεγονός και, σήμερα, αποτελούνται από μαθητές/τριες με ετερογενή, πολιτισμικά υπόβαθρα. Το νέο και πολύπλευρο αυτό φαινόμενο καλείται να διαχειριστεί η ελληνική, εκπαιδευτική κοινότητα, εστιάζοντας όχι στην αφομοίωση, αλλά στην προώθηση της διαφορετικότητας του εκάστοτε μαθητικού δυναμικού. Το παρόν σχέδιο διδασκαλίας αναδεικνύει τον καίριο ρόλο του/της εκπαιδευτικού της Πρωτοβάθμιας Εκπαίδευσης στο σύγχρονο, πολυπολιτισμικό, ελληνικό σχολείο, ενώ, ταυτόχρονα, αποσαφηνίζονται οι έννοιες της πολυπολιτισμικότητας, της διαπολιτισμικότητας, της διαπολιτισμικής εκπαίδευσης και της ελληνικής ως δεύτερης/ξένης γλώσσας.

description: Evanescent operators such as the Gauss-Bonnet term have vanishing perturbative matrix elements in exactly D=4 dimensions. Similarly, evanescent fields do not propagate in D=4; a three-form field is in this class, since it is dual to a cosmological-constant contribution. In this Letter, we show that evanescent operators and fields modify the leading ultraviolet divergence in pure gravity. To analyze the divergence, we compute the two-loop identical-helicity four-graviton amplitude and determine the coefficient of the associated (non-evanescent) R^3 counterterm studied long ago by Goroff and Sagnotti. We compare two pairs of theories that are dual in D=4: gravity coupled to nothing or to three-form matter, and gravity coupled to zero-form or to two-form matter. Duff and van Nieuwenhuizen showed that, curiously, the one-loop conformal anomaly --- the coefficient of the Gauss-Bonnet operator --- changes under p-form duality transformations. We concur, and also find that the leading R^3 divergence changes under duality transformations. Nevertheless, in both cases the physical renormalized two-loop identical-helicity four-graviton amplitude can be chosen to respect duality. In particular, its renormalization-scale dependence is unaltered.

description: Web archives, a key area of digital preservation, meet the needs of journalists, social scientists, historians, and government orga- nizations. The use cases for these groups often require that they guide the archiving process themselves, selecting their own original resources, or seeds, and creating their own web archive collections. We focus on the collections within Archive-It, a subscription service started by the Internet Archive in 2005 for the purpose of allowing organizations to create their own collections of archived web pages, or mementos. Understanding these collections could be done via their user-supplied metadata or via text analysis, but the metadata is applied inconsistently between collections and some Archive-It collections consist of hundreds of thousands of seeds, making it costly in terms of time to download each memento. Our work pro- poses using structural metadata as an additional way to understand these collections. We explore structural features currently existing in these collections that can unveil curation and crawling behaviors. We adapt the concept of the collection growth curve for understand- ing Archive-It collection curation and crawling behavior. Using the growth curves, we can see if most of the mementos in the collection are skewed earlier or later. We also introduce several seed features to describe the diversity and types of seeds present in an Archive-It collection. With these seed features, we come to an understanding of the diversity of resources that make up a collection and the depth of those resources within their seed websites, indicating whether the curator chose to preserve the top-level page or something more specific within a site. Finally, we use the descriptions of each collec- tion to identify four semantic categories of Archive-It collections. Using the identified structural features, we reviewed the results of runs with 20 classifiers and are able to predict the semantic category of a collection using a Random Forest classifier with a weighted average F1 score of 0.720, thus bridging the structural to the de- scriptive. Our method is useful because it saves the researcher time and bandwidth. They do not need to download every resource in the collection in order to identify its semantic category. Identifying collections by their semantic category allows further downstream processing to be tailored to these categories.

description: In Greek, Russian, and Turkish, grammatical aspect is realized in different ways. The grammars of heritage varieties of the three languages show interesting dynamics regarding aspectual constructions and preferences. This study discusses cross-linguistically the aspect realization in heritage and monolingual populations' production data, investigating the extra-linguistic factors of formality and mode in several communicative situations. In line with previous literature, it was found that under language contact, markedness alongside formality, mode, and narration task impact speakers' choice of aspectual forms. However, these effects are not universal cross-linguistically and especially for the languages under the scope of the present study. Our contribution provides results from an advanced statistical analysis on large-scale cross-linguistic data and contributes to the discussion about novel perspectives in this unexplored field of heritage languages.

description: News websites make editorial decisions about what stories to in- clude on their website homepages and what stories to emphasize (e.g., large font size for main story). The emphasized stories on a news website are often highly similar to many other news websites (e.g, a terrorist event story). The selective emphasis of a top news story and the similarity of news across different news organizations are well-known phenomena but not well-measured. We provide a method for identifying the top news story for a select set of U.S.- based news websites and then quantify the similarity across them. To achieve this, we first developed a headline and link extractor that parses select websites, and then examined ten United States based news website homepages during a three month period, No- vember 2016 to January 2017. Using archived copies, retrieved from the Internet Archive (IA), we discuss the methods and difficulties for parsing these websites, and how events such as a presidential election can lead news websites to alter their document representa- tion just for these events. We use our parser to extract k = 1, 3, 10 maximum number of stories for each news site. Second, we used the cosine similarity measure to calculate news similarity at 8PM Eastern Time for each day in the three months. The similarity scores show a buildup (0.335) before Election Day, with a declining value (0.328) on Election Day, and an increase (0.354) after Election Day. Our method shows that we can effectively identity top stories and quantify news similarity.

description: In the very broad scope addressed by digital preservation initiatives, a special place belongs to the scientific and technical artifacts that we need to properly archive to enable scientific reproducibility. For these artifacts we need identifiers that are not only unique and persistent, but also support integrity in an intrinsic way. They must provide strong guarantees that the object denoted by a given identifier will always be the same, without relying on third parties and external administrative processes. In this article, we report on our quest for this identifiers for digital objects (IDOs), whose properties are different from, and complementary to, those of the various digital identifiers of objects (DIOs) that are in widespread use today. We argue that both kinds of identifiers are needed and present the framework for intrinsic persistent identifiers that we have adopted in Software Heritage for preserving billions of software artifacts.
The Dethroning: Prester John’s Demise and The Shaping of Modern Ethiopia
Creators: name: Howell, Jeremy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: This thesis examines European perceptions of the Prester John legend after 1600 and how changing perceptions of the Prester John legend reflected European attitudes towards Ethiopia. The Prester John legend dates back to the 12th century when tales emerged of a faraway Christian kingdom ruled by a mystical figure named Prester John. The legend was carried down through the centuries until, starting in the 1600s, the legend began to be challenged. This thesis argues that disagreeable and hostile interactions between Europeans and Ethiopians – coupled with ideological shifts among Europeans toward rationalism and imperialism – led to the rejection, disregard, and eventual demise of the centuries old Prester John legend.

Configuration-averaged 4f orbitals in ab initio calculations of low-lying crystal field levels in lanthanide(III) complexes

description: A successful and commonly used ab initio method for the calculation of crystal field levels and magnetic anisotropy of lanthanide complexes consists of spin-adapted state-averaged CASSCF calculations followed by state interaction with spin-orbit coupling (SI-SO). Based on two observations valid for Ln(III) complexes, namely: (i) CASSCF 4f orbitals are expected to change very little when optimized for different states belonging to the 4f electronic configuration, (ii) due to strong spin-orbit coupling the total spin is not a good quantum number, we show here via a straightforward analysis and direct calculation that the CASSCF/SI-SO method can be simplified to a single configuration-averaged HF calculation and one complete active space CI diagonalization, including spin-orbit coupling, on determinant basis. Besides its conceptual simplicity, this approach has the advantage that all spin states of the 4f$^n$ configuration are automatically included in the SO coupling, thereby overcoming one of the computational limitations of the existing CASSCF/SI-SO approach. As an example, we consider three isostructural complexes [Ln(acac)$_3$(H$_2$O)$_2$], Ln = Dy$^{3+}$, Ho$^{3+}$, Er$^{3+}$, and find that the proposed simplified method yields crystal field levels and magnetic g-tensors that are in very good agreement with those obtained with CASSCF/SI-SO.

description: Twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) has emerged as a promising platform to explore exotic electronic phases. However, the formation of moiré patterns in tBLG has thus far been confined to the introduction of twist angles between the layers. Here, we propose heterostrained bilayer graphene (hBLG), as an alternative avenue to access twist-angle-free moiré physics via lattice mismatch. Using atomistic and first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that uniaxial heterostrain can promote isolated flat electronic bands around the Fermi level. Furthermore, the heterostrain-induced out-of-plane lattice relaxation may lead to a spatially modulated reactivity of the surface layer, paving the way for the moiré-driven chemistry and magnetism. We anticipate that our findings can be readily generalized to other layered materials.
