description: The design of places, objects, and experiential operations are of great importance to the relief, recovery and rebuilding efforts that affect millions of people each year. Proactively designing for these scenarios requires a more than just sensitivity to the vexing nature of the people and their problems. The inter-disciplinary teams that assist in these efforts must be able to translate these activities into solutions that have insights into the structural, material, and construction considerations. Without these qualities, the tangible, useful, and deployable solutions could be marginalized until they become the lowest common denominator of design solutions. The value of design is largely excluded from the operational considerations. Surprisingly, the manuals used by these agencies have very little, if any, information about the actual design standards for these necessary resources of food, water, shelter, etc. Design solutions, and the associated technical acumen necessary to create these solutions, are un-necessarily absent. Addressing these challenges educationally also presents challenges. The multi-faceted nature of the problems, the constantly changing sites and users, and the diverse teams of experts needed often excludes this work from design studios or building technology courses—or worse, the complexity of the issues are marginalizes as simply a search for a “better” shelter. This paper will argue that the constrained conditions related to disaster relief and resiliency are ideal topics for building technology educators as they amplify the importance of the tools, design tactics, and technical principles that are integrated into the process and they create an inherent evaluative standards for performance assessment (i.e., maximized material utilization, integration with means of production / deployment, and resiliency). This paper will describe several projects that have been developed in the last few years by an inter-disciplinary team of students in the College of Design at Iowa State University as part of a design-build option studio called, Structures in Service: Design for Relief and Resiliency. This course’s activities are based on the premise that relief and resiliency efforts can be meaningfully improved by a dedicated group of integrated designers that are able to leverage the benefits of contemporary design and production tools towards these efforts.

description: The alarming increase in lethal violence among young people in the U.S.—which is often attributed to drug use and drug trafficking—has prompted re-examination of the relationship between drugs and violent offending.While no national data exist, numerous local studies find a high prevalence of homicide deaths among identified drug addicts, a high prevalence of substance use—typically alcohol—among victims of homicide, and a high proportion of persons testing positive for drug use among arrestees for violent offenses. Other studies report large increases in drug-related homicides or other violence associated with drug distribution.

description: Current methods used to determine combined residual chlorine cannot distinguish between inorganic monochloramine (NH2Cl) and organic chloramines. Studies described in this thesis were carried out to develop a novel method of determining the concentration of inorganic monochloramine in aqueous solutions. Based on the observation that the reaction of 3-formyl-1-methylpyridinium chloride (3FMPCl) with NH2Cl produces a solution which is fluorescent, experiments were conducted to characterize the reaction and optimize the experimental conditions. Using the finalized protocol, NH2Cl measurements were made in the presence and absence of organic amines and compared with a commonly used N, N-Diethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPD) - ferrous ammonium sulfate (FAS) method. Results suggest that the method established by this study provides a relatively quick and precise approach for determining NH2Cl concentrations in aqueous solutions. As an advantage over the DPD-FAS method, this technique is not affected by the presence of comparable concentrations of organic chloramines in sample solutions. Moreover, it is about twice as sensitive. Although the detailed underlying mechanisms of the reaction need further study, this new technique is of great potential significance for monitoring drinking water disinfection and wastewater treatment.

description: Advances in medical imaging technology have created opportunities for computer-aided diagnostic tools to assist human practitioners in identifying relevant patterns in massive, multi-scale digital pathology slides. This work presents Hierarchical Linear Time Subset Scanning (HLTSS), a novel pattern detection method which exploits the hierarchical structure inherent in data produced through virtual microscopy in order to accurately and quickly identify regions of interest for pathologists to review. We take a digital image at various resolution levels, identify the most anomalous regions at a coarse level, and continue to analyze the data at increasingly granular resolutions until we accurately identify its most anomalous sub-regions. We demonstrate the performance of our novel method in identifying cancerous locations on digital bslides of prostate biopsy samples, and show that our methods detect regions of cancer in a few minutes with high accuracy both as measured by the ROC curve (measuring ability to distinguish between benign and cancerous slides) and by the spatial precision-recall curve (measuring ability to pick out the malignant areas on a slide which contains cancer).

description: Appearance-based generic object recognition is a challenging problem because all possible appearances of objects cannot be registered, especially as new objects are produced every day. Function of objects, however, has a comparatively small number of prototypes. Therefore, function-based classification of new objects could be a valuable tool for generic object recognition. Object functions are closely related to hand-object interactions during handling of a functional object; i.e., how the hand approaches the object, which parts of the object and contact the hand, and the shape of the hand during interaction. Hand-object interactions are helpful for modeling object functions. However, it is difficult to assign discrete labels to interactions because an object shape and grasping hand-postures intrinsically have continuous variations. To describe these interactions, we propose the interaction descriptor space which is acquired from unlabeled appearances of human hand-object interactions. By using interaction descriptors, we can numerically describe the relation between an object's appearance and its possible interaction with the hand. The model infers the quantitative state of the interaction from the object image alone. It also identifies the parts of objects designed for hand interactions such as grips and handles. We demonstrate that the proposed method can unsupervisedly generate interaction descriptors that make clusters corresponding to interaction types. And also we demonstrate that the model can infer possible hand-object interactions.

description: We propose to use quantized Berry phases as local order parameters of gapped quantum liquids, which are invariant under some anti-unitary operation. After presenting a general prescription, the scheme is applied for Heisenberg models with frustrations and two dimensional extended Su-Schrieffer-Heeger models associated with a random dimer covering. In each phases, the quantized Berry phases, as 0 or $π$, describe the ground state texture pattern of local singlet bonds and dimer bonds. Also possible applications to large classes of correlated electron systems are discussed.

description: The intense activity of cratering on the Moon and in the inner regions of the solar system was accomplished during the first 10^9 years [1]. Occasionally, some impact events occur even nowadays. In Section 1, we treat, from a historical point of view, the Earth-based observation of lunar impacts. In Section 2, we consider the visibility conditions of such events evaluating the luminosity of the background upon which an impact shines. In Section~3, the luminosity of an impact is discussed. The occurrence of lunar impact events outside of meteor shower periods is calculated using the hourly rate of the sporadic meteors and their population index. The evidence of a larger rate of impacts of meteoroids in the past under these hypotheses is presentend in the last section.

description: We present the concept of magnetic gas detection by the Extraordinary Hall effect (EHE). The technique is compatible with the existing conductometric gas detection technologies and allows simultaneous measurement of two independent parameters: resistivity and magnetization affected by the target gas. Feasibility of the approach is demonstrated by detecting low concentration hydrogen using thin CoPd films as the sensor material. The Hall effect sensitivity of the optimized samples exceeds 240% per 104 ppm at hydrogen concentrations below 0.5% in the hydrogen/nitrogen atmosphere, which is more than two orders of magnitude higher than the sensitivity of the conductance detection.

description: We study the effect of spontaneous breaking of Lorentz invariance on black hole thermodynamics. We consider a scenario where Lorentz symmetry breaking manifests itself by the difference of maximal velocities attainable by particles of different species in a preferred reference frame. The Lorentz breaking sector is represented by the ghost condensate. We find that the notions of black hole entropy and temperature loose their universal meaning. In particular, the standard derivation of the Hawking radiation yields that a black hole does emit thermal radiation in any given particle species, but with temperature depending on the maximal attainable velocity of this species. We demonstrate that this property implies violation of the second law of thermodynamics, and hence, allows construction of a perpetuum mobile of the 2nd kind. We discuss possible interpretation of these results.

description: Collective P- and T- odd moments produced by parity and time invariance violating forces in reflection asymmetric nuclei are considered. The enhanced collective Schiff, electric dipole and octupole moments appear due to the mixing of rotational levels of opposite parity. These moments can exceed single-particle moments by more than two orders of magnitude. The enhancement is due to the collective nature of the intrinsic moments and the small energy separation between members of parity doublets. In turn these nuclear moments induce enhanced T- and P- odd effects in atoms and molecules. First a simple estimate is given and then a detailed theoretical treatment of the collective T-, P- odd electric moments in reflection asymmetric, odd-mass nuclei is presented and various corrections evaluated. Calculations are performed for octupole deformed long-lived odd-mass isotopes of Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac and Pa and the corresponding atoms. Experiments with such atoms may improve substantially the limits on time reversal violation.

description: This paper introduces and tests the hypothesis that the effects of information with negative valence tend to fade away more slowly than the effects of information with positive valence, not only because their immediate impact may be stronger, but also because the two types of information are discounted differently. To empirically test this hypothesis, we designed three survey‐based randomized experiments, in which we manipulated the valence of the information that subjects are exposed to and the time to which such information refers. We measured how our subjects reacted to such information using judgment metrics derived from the literature or created ad‐hoc for our experiments. We used a difference‐in‐difference model to disentangle the effects of valence, time and their interaction. Our findings provide some empirical support for our hypothesis. We suggest the theoretical grounds that could motivate differential discounting, and the implications of such phenomenon in a society where negative and positive information about people is so easily retrievable.

description: Recognizing that deidentification of data is generally inadequate to protect their confidentiality against attack by a data snooper, information organizations (IOs) can apply a variety of disclosure limitation (DL) techniques, such as topcoding, noise addition and data swapping. Desirably, the resulting restricted data have both high data utility U to data users and low disclosure risk R from data snoopers. IOs lack a coherent framework for examining tradeoffs between R and U for a specific DL procedure. They also lack systematic ways of comparing the performance of distinct DL procedures. To provide this framework and facilitate comparisons, the R-U confidentiality map is introduced to trace the joint impact on R and U of changes in the parameters of a DL procedure. Implementation of an R-U confidentiality map is illustrated in real multivariate data cases for two DL techniques: topcoding and multivariate noise addition. Topcoding is examined for a Cobb-Douglas regression model, as fit to restricted data from the New York City Housing and Vacancy Survey. Multivariate additive noise is examined under various scenarios of attack, predicated on different knowledge states for a data snooper, and for different goals of a data analyst. We illustrate how simulation methods can be used to implement an empirical R-U confidentiality map, which is suitable for analytically intractable specifications of R, U and the disclosure limitation method. Application is made to the Schools and Staffing Survey, which is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics.
Enhanced Movie Content Similarity Based on Textual, Auditory and Visual Information

description: In this paper we examine the ability of low-level multimodal features to extract movie similarity, in the context of a content-based movie recommendation approach. In particular, we demonstrate the extraction of multimodal representation models of movies, based on textual information from subtitles, as well as cues from the audio and visual channels. With regards to the textual domain, we emphasize our research in topic modeling of movies based on their subtitles, in order to extract topics that discriminate between movies. Regarding the visual domain, we focus on the extraction of semantically useful features that model camera movements, colors and faces, while for the audio domain we adopt simple classification aggregates based on pretrained models. The three domains are combined with static metadata (e.g. directors, actors) to prove that the content-based movie similarity procedure can be enhanced with low-level multimodal information. In order to demonstrate the proposed content representation approach, we have built a small dataset of 160 widely known movies. We assert movie similarities, as propagated by the individual modalities and fusion models, in the form of recommendation rankings. Extensive experimentation proves that all three low-level modalities (text, audio and visual) boost the performance of a content-based recommendation system, compared to the typical metadata-based content representation, by more than $50\%$ relative increase. To our knowledge, this is the first approach that utilizes a wide range of features from all involved modalities, in order to enhance the performance of the content similarity estimation, compared to the metadata-based approaches.

Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Schnabl recently constructed an analytic solution for tachyon condensation in Witten's open string field theory. The solution consists of two pieces. Only the first piece is involved in proving that the solution satisfies the equation of motion when contracted with any state in the Fock space. On the other hand, both pieces contribute in evaluating the kinetic term to reproduce the value predicted by Sen's conjecture. We therefore need to understand why the second piece is necessary. We evaluate the cubic term of the string field theory action for Schnabl's solution and use it to show that the second piece is necessary for the equation of motion contracted with the solution itself to be satisfied. We also present the solution in various forms including a pure-gauge configuration and provide simpler proofs that it satisfies the equation of motion.

description: Information organizations, such as statistical agencies, must ensure that data access does not compromise the confidentiality afforded data providers, whether individuals or establishments. Recognizing that deidentification of data is generally inadequate to protect confidentiality against attack by a data snooper, information organizations (IOs)—such as statistical agencies, data archives, and trade associations—can implement a variety of disclosure limitation (DL) techniques—such as topcoding, noise addition and data swapping—in developing data products. Desirably, the resulting restricted data have both high data utility U to data users and low disclosure risk R from data snoopers. IOs lack a framework for examining tradeoffs between R and U under a specific DL procedure. They also lack systematic ways of comparing the performance of distinct DL procedures. To provide this framework and facilitate comparisons, the R-U confidentiality map is introduced to trace the joint impact on R and U to changes in the parameters of a DL procedure. Implementation of an R-U confidentiality map is illustrated in the case of multivariate noise addition. Analysis is provided for two important multivariate estimation problems: a data user seeks to estimate linear combinations of means and to estimate regression coefficients.

description: This paper documents the questions, methods and outcomes of “Big Glue,” a research collaboration among students and faculty from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo’s chemistry and architecture departments that explores the potentials of structural adhesives in architecture and design. The project asks how adhesives can be more broadly used as work increases in size from the scale of models to full-scale construction. Our focus is on aluminum structures. We looked at existing adhesive use in construction and in the automotive industry, where adhesives are increasingly used on aluminum and aluminum composites to reduce weight and consequently increase fuel efficiencies. We see potential overlaps between automotive and architectural applications of adhesives in sheet metal structural skins. We began at a small scale to get acquainted with adhesives and to test using bonded joints in applications that would typically be welded or mechanically fastened. Our team formulated custom adhesives based on parameters we defined as specific to architecture and construction, then tested this lab formulation and other adhesives on glued joints at three scales—extra small, small and medium—in the form of test coupons, a “ravioli” structure, and furniture. Working at the scale of furniture allowed us to test material interactions on load bearing seams that are structurally analogous to larger scale architectural applications. Using adhesives instead of welds or mechanical fasteners allowed us to work more fluidly between scale models, digital simulations, and final products. This research lays the groundwork for scaling up to large and extra-large projects.

These features include morphological and rhythm-related features that are used to build two classifiers: one that evaluates the record globally, using aggregated values for each feature; and another one that evaluates the record as a sequence, using a Recurrent Neural Network fed with the individual features for each detected heartbeat. The two classifiers are finally combined using the stacking technique, providing an answer by means of four target classes: Normal sinus rhythm, Atrial fibrillation, Other anomaly, and Noisy. The approach has been validated against the 2017 Physionet/CinC Challenge dataset, obtaining a final score of 0.83 and ranking first in the competition.

description: Relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov (RHB) theory in coordinate space is used to describe the chain of even-even Zirconium isotopes reaching from Zr116 to the drip line nucleus Zr140. Pairing correlations are taken into account by a density dependent force of zero range. For neutron numbers larger than the magic number N=82 a giant neutron halo outside the core of Zr122 is observed. It is formed by up to six neutrons.

description: The formation of self-consistent crystalline structure is a well-known phenomenon in complex plasmas. In most experiments the pressure and rf power are the main controlling parameters in determining the phase of the system. We have studied the effect of externally applied magnetic field on the configuration of plasma crystals, suspended in the sheath of a radio-frequency discharge using the Magnetized Dusty Plasma Experiment (MDPX) device. Experiments are performed at a fixed pressure and rf power where a crystalline structure is formed within a confining ring. The magnetic field is then increased from 0 to 1.28 T. We report on the breakdown of the crystalline structure with increasing magnetic field. The magnetic field affects the dynamics of the plasma particles and first leads to a rotation of the crystal. At higher magnetic field, there is a radial variation (shear) in the angular velocity of the moving particles which we believe leads to the melting of the crystal. This melting is confirmed by evaluating the variation of the pair correlation function as a function of magnetic field.

description: A recent solution of the inelastic Boltzmann equation that applies for strong dissipation and takes into account non-equipartition of energy is used to derive an explicit expression for the thermal diffusion factor. This parameter provides a criterion for segregation that involves all the parameters of the granular binary mixture (composition, masses, sizes, and coefficients of restitution). The present work is consistent with recent experimental results and extends previous results obtained in the intruder limit case.

description: The paper estimates the demand for new digital cameras sold in eBay auctions. EBay data seems to offer significant advantages over traditional transactions data for estimating demand for differentiated products. However, there are a number of concerns including censoring bias and the interpretation of the bidding behavior. This paper discusses these problems as well as possible solutions. The paper presents results from three different methods for estimating demand for differentiated products on eBay. The results suggest that the demand for digital cameras is highly elastic and there isn’t a lot of substitution, particularly across brands.
title: Berufliche Perspektiven von AbsolventInnen aus Studiengängen für Gesundheits- und Pflegeberufe in Bereichen des betrieblichen Gesundheitsmanagements
Creators: name: Sting, Anna-Lena
Publisher: name: Hochschule Hannover

Subjects: subject: 370 Erziehung, Schul- und Bildungswesen
subject: 610 Medizin, Gesundheit

description: Ausgangslage: Vor dem Hintergrund der vielfältigen Möglichkeiten des Settings Hochschule, die gesundheitlichen Belange von derzeit 719.203 Beschäftigten und 2,9 Millionen Studierenden zu gestalten und auf diese einzuwirken, bauen immer mehr Hochschulen interne Strukturen zur Gestaltung einer gesundheitsförderlichen Lehr-/ Lernumgebung auf. Besonders die Gesundheit von Studierenden ist in den vergangenen Jahren stärker in den Fokus gerückt, sodass Projekte des Studentischen Gesundheitsmanagements, die die Vermittlung von Gesundheitsförderung an alle Studierende als Aufgabe für den zukünftigen beruflichen Wirkungsbereich beabsichtigen, zunehmend vorangetrieben werden. Bislang gibt es jedoch keine empirischen Untersuchungen, die die MultiplikatorInnenrolle von AbsolventInnen in beruflichen Handlungsfeldern bestätigen. Ziel der Studie: Ziel der Studie war es herauszufinden, ob und zu welchem Anteil die hochschulisch erworbenen Kompetenzen zum BGM bzw. zur BGF in den beruflichen Handlungsfeldern Anwendung finden und ob sich die AbsolventInnen als MultiplikatorInnen eigeninitiativ an der Gestaltung eines gesundheitsförderlichen Settings beteiligen. Methoden: Im Rahmen einer als Querschnittsstudie angelegten AbsolventInnen-Befragung zum beruflichen Verbleib beteiligten sich n = 125 AbsolventInnen aus Studiengängen für Pflege- und Gesundheitsberufe. Die Auswertung und Diskussion der Ergebnisse fokussierte sich auf den Befragungsteil zum Betrieblichen Gesundheitsmanagement. Ergebnisse: Die AbsolventInnen setzen insbesondere verhaltens- und verhältnisbezogene Maßnahmen in ihrem Berufsalltag um und fühlen sich durch ihr Studium gut darauf vorbereitet, Aufgaben zur Ausgangsbestimmung, Maßnahmenentwicklung sowie Evaluationen und Wirksamkeitsnachweise in Bereichen des Betrieblichen Gesundheitsmanagements bzw. der Betrieblichen Gesundheitsförderung zu übernehmen. Der Transfer des gesundheitsförderlichen Wissens und Handelns im Sinne der MultiplikatorInnenrolle zeigt jedoch Handlungsbedarf. Schlussfolgerungen: Es bedarf einer vertiefenden Reflexion und Stärkung des persönlichen Selbstverständnisses und der professionellen Identität der Gesundheits- und Pflegeberufe mit Blick auf die Betriebliche Gesundheitsförderung unter Einbezug der kontextspezifischen Rahmenbedingungen der Hochschulen und des Gesundheitswesens.

description: We present all the symmetry superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of all warped AdS$_k\times_w M^{d-k}$, $k>2$, flux backgrounds in $d=10, 11$ dimensions preserving any number of supersymmetries. First we give the conditions for $\mathfrak{g}$ to decompose into a direct sum of the isometry algebra of AdS$_k$ and that of the internal space $M^{d-k}$. Assuming this decomposition, we identify all symmetry superalgebras of AdS$_3$ backgrounds by showing that the isometry groups of internal spaces act transitively on spheres. We demonstrate that in type II and $d=11$ theories the AdS$_3$ symmetry superalgebras may not be simple and also present all symmetry superalgebras of heterotic AdS$_3$ backgrounds. Furthermore, we explicitly give the symmetry superalgebras of AdS$_k$, $k>3$, backgrounds and prove that they are all classical.

description: We consider point spectrum traces in the Hofstadter model. We show how to recover the full quantum Hofstadter trace by integrating these point spectrum traces with the appropriate free density of states on the lattice. This construction is then generalized to the almost Mathieu operator and its n-th moments which can be expressed in terms of generalized Kreft coefficients.

description: Peer-to-peer (P2P) services allow users to share networked resources, notably bandwidth and content, from the edges of the network. These services have been popularized because of file sharing — particularly the sharing of unlicensed copyrighted files. Concerns about such P2P file sharing were highlighted by content owners’ recent lawsuits against individual users and P2P network operators. However, content owners are increasingly exploring the ability of peer-to-peer networks to accommodate legitimate content distribution and promotion. In this article we review the economic characteristics of P2P networks and outline the implications of these characteristics on efforts to counteract illegal piracy and on potential uses of P2P networks in a commercial media distribution strategy.
