description: Medical ultrasound technology is widely used in routine clinical applications such as disease diagnosis and treatment as well as other applications like real-time monitoring of human tongue shapes and motions as visual feedback in second language training. Due to the low-contrast characteristic and noisy nature of ultrasound images, it might require expertise for non-expert users to recognize tongue gestures. Manual tongue segmentation is a cumbersome, subjective, and error-prone task. Furthermore, it is not a feasible solution for real-time applications. In the last few years, deep learning methods have been used for delineating and tracking tongue dorsum. Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs), which have shown to be successful in medical image analysis tasks, are typically weak for the same task on different domains. In many cases, DCNNs trained on data acquired with one ultrasound device, do not perform well on data of varying ultrasound device or acquisition protocol. Domain adaptation is an alternative solution for this difficulty by transferring the weights from the model trained on a large annotated legacy dataset to a new model for adapting on another different dataset using fine-tuning. In this study, after conducting extensive experiments, we addressed the problem of domain adaptation on small ultrasound datasets for tongue contour extraction. We trained a U-net network comprises of an encoder-decoder path from scratch, and then with several surrogate scenarios, some parts of the trained network were fine-tuned on another dataset as the domain-adapted networks. We repeat scenarios from target to source domains to find a balance point for knowledge transfer from source to target and vice versa. The performance of new fine-tuned networks was evaluated on the same task with images from different domains.

description: Indications of geographical origin as distinguished signs are used for marking products and services originating from certain geographic locations. In recent years this field of intellectual property has been under the focus of our legislative bodies in the sense that the regulations in this field have been completely harmonized with corresponding EU laws. Therefore, the absence of the products and services with our geographic indications from international markets can no longer be justified by inadequate regulatory solutions. In this work the authors point to the significance of legal protection of indications of geographic origin describing the legal procedure for IGO protection according to national and international laws. In the conclusion, the authors present some critical reviews of the existing solutions in the Law on indications of geographic origin where the government is instituted as the organ of second instance in charge of deciding on the legal protection of geographical indications suggesting that a relevant independent Commission or an Appellate Council at the Intellectual Property Office should be instituted as an organ of second instance.

description: Tillmann introduced two infinite loop space structures on the plus construction of the classifying space of the stable mapping class group, each with different computational advantages. The first one uses disjoint union on a suitable cobordism category, whereas the second uses an operad which extends the pair of pants multiplication (i.e. the double loop space structure introduced by E. Y. Miller). She conjectured that these two infinite loop space structures were equivalent, and managed to prove that the first delooping are the same. In this paper, we resolve the conjecture by proving that the two structures are indeed equivalent, exhibiting an explicit geometric map.

description: The incubation time preceding nucleation and growth of surface nanostructures is interesting from a fundamental viewpoint but also of practical relevance as it determines statistical properties of nanostructure ensembles such as size homogeneity. Using in situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction, we accurately deduce the incubation times for Ga-assisted GaAs nanowires grown on unpatterned Si(111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy under different conditions. We develop a nucleation model that explains and fits very well the data. We find that, for a given temperature and Ga flux, the incubation time always increases with decreasing As flux and becomes infinite at a certain minimum flux, which is larger for higher temperature. For given As and Ga fluxes, the incubation time always increases with temperature and rapidly tends to infinity above 640 °C under typical conditions. The strong temperature dependence of the incubation time is reflected in a similar variation of the nanowire number density with temperature. Our analysis provides understanding and guidance for choosing appropriate growth conditions that avoid unnecessary material consumption, long nucleation delays, and highly inhomogeneous ensembles of nanowires. On a more general ground, the existence of a minimum flux and maximum temperature for growing surface nanostructures should be a general phenomenon pertaining for a wide range of material-substrate combinations.

description: Protein kinase monopolar spindle 1 plays an important role in spindle assembly checkpoint at the onset of mitosis. Over expression of MPS1 correlated with a wide range of human tumors makes it an attractive target for finding an effective and specific inhibitor. In this work, we performed molecular dynamics simulations of protein MPS1 itself as well as protein bound systems with the inhibitor and natural substrate based on crystal structures. The reported orally bioavailable 1 h-pyrrolo [3,2-c] pyridine inhibitors of MPS1 maintained stable binding in the catalytic site, while natural substrate ATP could not stay. Comparative study of stability and flexibility of three systems reveals position shifting of β-sheet region within the catalytic site, which indicates inhibition mechanism was through stabilizing the β-sheet region. Binding free energies calculated with MM-GB/PBSA method shows different binding affinity for inhibitor and ATP. Finally, interactions between protein and inhibitor during molecular dynamic simulations were measured and counted. Residue Gly605 and Leu654 were suggested as important hot spots for stable binding of inhibitor by molecular dynamic simulation. Our results reveal an important position shifting within catalytic site for non-inhibited proteins. Together with hot spots found by molecular dynamic simulation, the results provide important information of inhibition mechanism and will be referenced for designing novel inhibitors.

Constant Scalar Curvature Metrics on Connected Sums

description: Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with dimension n > 2. The Yamabe problem is to find a metric with constant scalar curvature in the conformal class of g, by minimizing the total scalar curvature. The proof was completed in 1984. Suppose (M',g') and (M'',g'') are compact Riemannian n-manifolds with constant scalar curvature. We form the connected sum M' # M'' of M' and M'' by removing small balls from M' and M'' and joining the S^{n-1} boundaries together. In this paper we use analysis to construct metrics with constant scalar curvature on M' # M''. Our description is quite explicit, in contrast to the general Yamabe case when one knows little about what the metric looks like. There are 9 cases, depending on the signs of the scalar curvature on M' and M'' (positive, negative, or zero). We show that the constant scalar curvature metrics either develop small "necks" separating M' and M'', or one of M', M'' is crushed small by the conformal factor. When both have positive scalar curvature, we construct three different metrics with scalar curvature 1 in the same conformal class.

description: The objective of this study is to identify funding opportunities for family businesses with the capital market instruments, and the risks associated with the implementation of common strategies. A family enterprise activity is guided not only by typical economic objectives, but also by striving for maintaining continuity and ensuring succession of the next generation. Therefore, the preservation of economic independence is of particular importance. Its significant determinant is that the funding to a large extent is based on the equity. A bank loan is traditionally perceived as the primary source of external financing. Bank loans access restrictions, as a result of new prudential regulations, force the family businesses to take into consideration alternative ways of funding. Capital market offers a wide range of financial instruments from debt securities through hybrid instruments to external equity. Each of these instruments, to varying degrees, protects the economic independence of an enterprise. For strategic purposes of family business, particularly well adjusted is funding using the mezzanine capital. It provides funds which features that are similar to the ones of equity, and at the same time reducing the influence of investors on the functioning of an enterprise. Venture capital financing, however, poses the risk of loss of control over the enterprise.

description: This paper examines the conditions and factors that create opportunities for women to engage in market-oriented crop production. It uses as a case study of Nasarawa and Kwara states in northern Nigeria, where women have started to cultivate sweetpotato, a crop traditionally grown by men. Men’s responsibility for providing staple food crops for household consumption (based on religious and cultural norms) and the practice of spouses cultivating separate plots controlled by the individual presented opportunities for women to produce sweetpotato for the market, challenging the commonly-held assumption that commercialization often disadvantages women. The sweetpotato case shows how the dynamic nature of production organization, intra-household roles and responsibilities, and gender ideologies in Sub-Saharan Africa make it difficult to predict how men and women farmers respond to market signals. The study finds that sweetpotato is generally a more important source of income for women than for men due to the crop’s relatively low labor requirements and short maturity time. Yet despite strong female economic autonomy, women in the study locations face major genderrelated structural constraints in crop production that are likely to restrict them from engaging in medium- or large-scale production.

description: The article focuses on the activities of local government units (LGUs) in the Lodz voivodeship (Poland). More importantly, it compares the activities of local authorities in selected EU Member States of Central and Eastern Europe. Despite the fact, that foreign investors consider Central and Eastern Europe one area, the countries in the region differ significantly with respect to economic achievements, foreign direct investment (FDI) absorption capacity, and the approach to investment incentives. The paper aims to evaluate local government’s efforts undertaken to attract FDI in view of a comparative analysis for regions in three countries: Hungary, Poland and Romania, and a direct research involving representatives of all counties and 36% of communes in the voivodeship of Lodz. The article centres around four aspects. First, it presents comparative analysis for selected Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) regions and it reviews instruments used by the LGUs to attract FDIs. Then, it provides the evaluation of communes and counties’ preferences when it comes to attracting FDIs. The third analysed aspect is the impact of FDIs on local economies. Finally, we also identify impediments to the inflow of FDIs to communes and counties.

description: Monte Carlo simulations and dynamical mean-field approximations are performed to study the phase transition in a driven lattice gas with nearest-neighbor exclusion on a square lattice. A slight extension of the microscopic dynamics with allowing the next-nearest-neighbor hops results in dramatic changes. Instead of the phase separation into high- and low-density regions in the stationary state the system exhibits a continuous transition belonging to the Ising universality class for any driving. The relevant features of phase diagram are reproduced by an improved mean-field analysis.

description: Under the global health crisis of COVID-19, timely, and accurate epidemic data are important for observation, monitoring, analyzing, modeling, predicting, and mitigating impacts. Viral case data can be jointly analyzed with relevant factors for various applications in the context of the pandemic. Current COVID-19 case data are scattered across a variety of data sources which may consist of low data quality accompanied by inconsistent data structures. To address this shortcoming, a multi-scale spatiotemporal data product is proposed as a public repository platform, based on a spatiotemporal cube, and allows the integration of different data sources by adopting various data standards. Within the spatiotemporal cube, a comprehensive data processing workflow gathers disparate COVID-19 epidemic datasets at the global, national, provincial/state, county, and city levels. This proposed framework is supported by an automatic update with a 2-h frequency and the crowdsourcing validation team to produce and update data on a daily time step. This rapid-response dataset allows the integration of other relevant socio-economic and environmental factors for spatiotemporal analysis. The data is available in Harvard Dataverse platform (https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.7910/DVN/8HGECN) and GitHub open source repository (https://github.com/stccenter/COVID-19-Data).

description: Rural advisory services operate in environments structured a priori by gender relations. Women often experience weaker access to productive resources and decision-making power within the household, lower and less effective participation in community-level decisionmaking bodies, in value chain networks, and in innovation platforms. They are less often reached by extension and advisory services. This can make it difficult for women to implement their ideas and to act on recommendations. What must change if women are to not only access, but work effectively with extension and advisory services? Tackling the underlying gender relations that hamper access and implementation is a priority. To achieve this, it is useful to think of the extension and advisory services as a facilitation system rather than a service and to reconfigure it accordingly. Existing “best bet practices” can be captured, integrated, and scaled out to build an empowering extension and advisory facilitation system.

description: The Fast Track Land Reform Programme in Zimbabwe led to the emergence of new communities on formerly white-owned land. The Zimbabwean government initiated two schemes: A1 (smallholder farming units of an average six hectares, each geared mainly toward household consumption) and A2 (large land sizes, at times over 400 hectares, geared toward commercial agriculture). This paper focuses on communities on A1 farms in Mazowe. These communities were born out of a chaotic and often violent process that precipitated economic and political crises. The new farmers found themselves faced with a myriad of social and service problems on the farms with a government that did not have the capacity to meet their needs. The farmers used various forms of social organization and farm-level grassroots organization to meet these challenges. This paper provides a gendered analysis of these organizational formations. It highlights that whilst social capital is important in building new farming communities, it can also lead to exclusion along gender lines. The paper thus focuses on the inclusion and exclusion of women from key productive institutions at the farm level. Findings also show that women act as active agents by forming their own groups (which, however, are not necessarily involved in governance on the farms). Through the use of qualitative methodologies on six purposively-sampled farming schemes in Mazowe, the paper argues that male domination of organizations affects women’s (particularly female heads of households) livelihoods. Women are largely excluded from decision-making in key productive institutions, which in most cases affects their access to communal productive assets. The paper concludes that romanticizing social capital hides how it can lead to gender-based exclusion.

On Simulating the Proton-Irradiation of O$_2$ and H$_2$O Ices Using Astrochemical-type Models, with Implications for Bulk Reactivity

description: Many astrochemical models today explicitly consider the species that comprise the bulk of interstellar dust grain ice-mantles separately from those in the top few monolayers. Bombardment of these ices by ionizing radiation - whether in the form of cosmic rays, stellar winds, or radionuclide emission - represents an astrochemically viable means of driving a rich chemistry even in the bulk of the ice-mantle, now supported by a large body of work in laboratory astrophysics. In this study, using an existing rate equation-based astrochemical code modified to include a method of considering radiation chemistry recently developed by us, we attempted to simulate two such studies in which (a) pure O$_2$ ice at 5 K and, (b) pure H$_2$O ice at 16 K and 77 K, were bombarded by keV H$^+$ ions. Our aims are twofold: (1) to test the capability of our newly developed method to replicate the results of ice-irradiation experiments, and (2) to determine in such a well-constrained system how bulk chemistry is best handled using the same gas-grain codes that are used to model the interstellar medium (ISM). We find that our modified astrochemical model is able to reproduce both the abundance of O$_3$ in the 5 K pure O$_2$ ice, as well as both the abundance of H$_2$O$_2$ in the 16 K water ice and the previously noted decrease of hydrogen peroxide at higher temperatures. However, these results require the assumption that radicals and other reactive species produced via radiolysis react quickly and non-diffusively with neighbors in the ice.

description: European transition economies are still suffering from negative implications of economic crisis. Significant decrease in the key interest rates was followed by reduced maneuverability of central banks in providing incentives into real economies. Responsiveness of short-term interest rates to the structural shocks provides unique platform to investigate sources of their unexpected volatility and associated effects on monetary policy decision making. Moreover, sources of interest rates volatility may help to reveal side effects of the exchange rate regime choice. In the paper we analyze sources of the short-term nominal interest rates volatility in ten European transition economies by employing SVAR methodology. We observed unique patterns of the short-term interest rates responsiveness in countries with different exchange rate arrangements that contributes to the fixed versus flexible exchange rate dilemma.

description: We show that one can skip the skew-symmetry assumption in the definition of Nambu-Poisson brackets. In other words, a n-ary bracket on the algebra of smooth functions which satisfies the Leibniz rule and a n-ary version of the Jacobi identity must be skew-symmetric. A similar result holds for a non-antisymmetric version of Lie algebroids.

description: Development of information and telecommunication technologies (ICT) and growing popularity of the Internet as communication medium were the most important incentives having influenced the global knowledge-based economy for at least two decades. Although the ICT infrastructure development degree is still often considered as an information society measure, it seems that nowadays, when so many people has broadband and mobile access to the Web, more appropriate ones are those reflecting ICT skills and efficient Internet usage qualifications. One of the new concepts is “open innovation”, which in a wider sense could be understood as an exemplification of networked knowledge and innovation exchange method possible thanks to the contemporary Internet revolution. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the general concept of open innovation environment, which could be created in Poland to facilitate and foster a scientific and innovation-oriented cooperation among different stakeholders, like companies (especially SMEs), universities, public institutions and the mass of individual Internet users. To achieve this goal, the latter part of the paper is dedicated to the electronic survey results analysis and discussion. This survey has been conducted via social media and other electronic communication channels in course of author’s research concerning new models of knowledge diffusion and technology transfer in electronic networks, especially on the Web.
