May she live to run again: history, meaning and change in Irish traditional hunting songs

description: This dissertation is an exploration of Irish traditional hunting songs, and, more broadly, it seeks to understand what these songs mean, and how their meanings have changed to remain relevant in new contexts. Focusing on four English-language Irish hunting songs—‘The Kilruddery Hunt’, ‘The Pursuit of Farmer Michael Hayes’, ‘The Creggan White Hare’ and ‘On Yonder Hill There Sits a Hare’—this research examines the history of each song, from the mid-1700s to the present day, and asks how the songs reflect cultural shifts as Ireland changed from a largely rural, agricultural community, to a more urban, globalised one. It is shown that the ability of traditional songs to carry “more than one level of meaning at a single moment” (Toelken 1995, p. 33) allows meaning to be reshaped and re-contextualised by different singers and audiences. Some songs will lend themselves to certain contexts better than others, and these songs will gain or lose popularity partly based on how adaptable they are to any particular context.This research uses a broad methodological approach in order to explore each song in detail, and examine patterns across different types of hunting songs in different temporal contexts. The methods used include textual analysis, historical and archival research, and semi-structured ethnographic interviews. The results of these methods are combined to view the songs (their texts and airs), and their historical contexts from multiple angles.This is the first major study of Irish traditional hunting songs, and one of the few studies that has been conducted on any type of Western hunting songs. It contributes to previous work on meaning and traditional songs, building on studies by Barre Toelken (1995), Toelken and D. K. Wilgus (1986), Constantine and Porter (2003), and others. It uses historical research methods in order to better understand the usefulness of such sources and methods for song studies, and also to explore the use of songs as historical artefacts in their own right. It will be shown that the study of traditional song can help us to better understand the values and ideas of people past and present, and serve as a valuable window into aspects of history, which often go unseen.

description: We consider the most general three-state spin chain with U(1)^3 symmetry and nearest neighbour interaction. Our model contains as a special case the spin chain describing the holomorphic three scalar sector of the three parameter complex deformation of N=4 SYM, dual to type IIB string theory in the generalized Lunin-Maldacena backgrounds discovered by Frolov. We formulate the coordinate space Bethe ansatz, calculate the S-matrix and determine for which choices of parameters the S-matrix fulfills the Yang-Baxter equations. For these choices of parameters we furthermore write down the R-matrix. We find in total four classes of integrable models. In particular, each already known model of the above type is nothing but one in a family of such models.

The degeneracy between primordial non-Gaussianity and foregrounds in 21cm intensity mapping experiments

description: Potential evidence for primordial non-Gaussianity (PNG) is expected to lie in the largest scales mapped by cosmological surveys. Forthcoming 21cm intensity mapping experiments will aim to probe these scales by surveying neutral hydrogen (HI) within galaxies. However, foreground signals dominate the faint 21cm emission, meaning foreground cleaning is required to recover the cosmological signal. The effect this has is to damp the HI power spectrum on the largest scales, especially along the line-of-sight. Whilst there is agreement that this contamination is potentially problematic for probing PNG, it is yet to be fully explored and quantified. In this work we carry out the first forecasts on $f_\text{NL}$ that incorporate simulated foreground maps that are removed using techniques employed in real data. Using an MCMC analysis, we demonstrate that foreground cleaned data recovers hugely biased values ($f_\text{NL} = -102.1_{-7.96}^{+8.39}$ [68% CL]) on our $f_\text{NL}=0$ fiducial input. Introducing a model with fixed parameters for the foreground contamination allows us to recover unbiased results ($f_\text{NL} = -2.94_{-11.9}^{+11.4}$). However, it is not clear that we will have sufficient understanding of foreground contamination to allow for such rigid models. Treating the main parameter $k_\parallel^\text{FG}$ in our foreground model as a nuisance parameter and marginalizing over it, still recovers unbiased results but at the expense of much larger errors ($f_\text{NL} = 0.75^{+40.2}_{-44.5}$), that can only be reduced by imposing the Planck 2018 prior. Our results show that significant progress on understanding and controlling foreground removal effects is necessary in order to study PNG with HI intensity mapping.

description: The paper focuses on separability in the almost ideal demand system (AIDS) in time series analysis. The AIDS approximation based on Stone's price index is specified in terms of the Rotterdam model and block additivity is imposed for illustrative purposes. A generalization to other types of separability is then considered. The model can be viewed as an extension to Theil et al.'s Working-PI time series model. In both the Theil et al. model and the AIDS model examined here, the marginal propensity to spend on a good is allowed to depend on the good's budget share. In the model in this paper, the Slutsky coefficients are further allowed to depend on the budget shares. The model provides a consistent way to analyze subgroup demand relationships.
title: What justifies belief? : probability, normalcy, and the functional theory
Creators: name: Backes, Marvin
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews
Year: 2019

description: What justifies belief?’ This question is arguably one of the most important questions in contemporary epistemology. The first part of this study looks at two very different answers to the above question, but ultimately finds both of them wanting. According to probabilistic accounts of justification, the property that makes a belief justified is some property along the lines of being highly probable. I call this picture of justification the Lockean View. In contrast, according to the most prominent non- probabilistic accounts of justification, the property that justifies belief is some property along the lines of being true in all normal worlds. I call this non-probabilistic picture of justification the Normalcy View. However, as we will see, both families of views turn out to be problematic. While probabilistic accounts are incompatible with an attractive principle called multi premise closure (MPC), non-probabilistic accounts, I argue, are too demanding and therefore too stingy. This leaves us in a dilemma; neither probabilistic nor non-probabilistic accounts of justification seem to be wholly satisfactory. I call this the (MPC)-Stinginess Dilemma. The second part of this study is concerned with how we should respond to this dilemma. After considering but rejecting some initial options, I argue that the dilemma can be avoided if we reject the almost universally accepted monist assumption that there is only one way for a belief to be justified; or, that there is only one property that can make a belief justified. Subsequently I develop and defend a novel, pluralist, theory of epistemic justification. I call it the Functional Theory of Justification. One upshot of the functional theory is that it makes room for the idea that there is more than one way for a belief to be justified; or, more precisely, that depending on our epistemic environment, justification can be realized by different properties.

description: The use of modern Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques has shown to be beneficial for software engineering tasks, such as vulnerability detection and type inference. However, training deep NLP models requires significant computational resources. This paper explores techniques that aim at achieving the best usage of resources and available information in these models. We propose a generic approach, EarlyBIRD, to build composite representations of code from the early layers of a pre-trained transformer model. We empirically investigate the viability of this approach on the CodeBERT model by comparing the performance of 12 strategies for creating composite representations with the standard practice of only using the last encoder layer. Our evaluation on four datasets shows that several early layer combinations yield better performance on defect detection, and some combinations improve multi-class classification. More specifically, we obtain a +2 average improvement of detection accuracy on Devign with only 3 out of 12 layers of CodeBERT and a 3.3x speed-up of fine-tuning. These findings show that early layers can be used to obtain better results using the same resources, as well as to reduce resource usage during fine-tuning and inference.

description: We have investigated the spin fluctuations at energy transfers up to ~110 meV, well above the resonance energy (33 meV) in the YBa2Cu3O6.5 ortho-II superconductor using neutron time-of-flight and triple-axis techniques. The spectrum at high energies differs from the low-energy incommensurate modulations previously reported where the incommensurate wave vector is largely independent of energy. Well above the resonance the peak of the spin response lies at wave vectors that increase with energy. Within error the excitations at all energies above the resonance are best described by a ring around the (pi, pi) position. The isotropic wave-vector pattern differs from a recently reported square pattern in different but related systems. The spin spectral weight at high-energies is similar to that in the insulator but the characteristic velocity is ~40% lower. We introduce a method of extracting the acoustic and optic weights at all energies from time-of-flight data. We find that the optic spectral weight extends to surprisingly low-energies of ~25 meV, and infer that the bilayer spin correlations weaken with increase in hole doping. When the low-energy optic excitations are taken into account we measure the total integrated weight around (pi, pi), for energies below 120 meV, to agree with that expected from the insulator. As a qualitative guide, we compare spin-wave calculations for an ordered and a disordered stripe model and describe the inadequacy of this and other stripe models for the high-energy fluctuations.

A psychometric study of the Rosenberg self-esteem scale : an investigation of gender dif
Creators: name: Swenson, Patricia Louise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The present study investigated the psychometric properties of the Rosenberg Self- Esteem Scale (RSES). The RSES is a ten-item self-administered instrument intended to measure global self-esteem. The RSES was administered to a group of 1,443 Canadian university students, including 569 males and 874 females. Professor Alex Michalos, as part of his International Study of Quality of Life, collected the data in 1980. Ages of participants ranged from 17 to 65 years. Mean ages were 21.94 years for males and 22.59 years for females. Coefficient alpha for the sample was 0.86. A two tailed t-test found no significant gender group differences for RSES total test scores. Factor analysis revealed one factor, accounting for 44.8% of variance in test scores. This result is indicative that the RSES is measuring one main variable, and that the RSES is a homogenous unidimensional measure. A gender group differential item functioning analysis was conducted using Zumbo's (1999) Logistic Regression method. DIF analyses found that three test items displayed statistically significant DIF (mainly uniform) at a probability level of 0.005 (which is the Bonferroni corrected Type I error rate). Effect sizes were less than the minimum R-squared of 0.130 required for significance according to the Zumbo-Thomas effect sizes for Likert data. Due to the extremely small effect sizes, it was concluded that the DIF findings were not significant.

description: We will pick up the concepts of partial and complete observables introduced by Rovelli in order to construct Dirac observables in gauge systems. We will generalize these ideas to an arbitrary number of gauge degrees of freedom. Different methods to calculate such Dirac observables are developed. For background independent field theories we will show that partial and complete observables can be related to Kuchař's Bubble Time Formalism. Moreover one can define a non-trivial gauge action on the space of complete observables and also state the Poisson brackets of these functions. Additionally we will investigate, whether it is possible to calculate Dirac observables starting with partially invariant partial observables, for instance functions, which are invariant under the spatial diffeomorphism group.

description: We give an explicit example of an exactly solvable PT-symmetric Hamiltonian with the unbroken PT symmetry which has one eigenfunction with the zero PT-norm. The set of its eigenfunctions is not complete in corresponding Hilbert space and it is non-diagonalizable. In the case of a regular Sturm-Liouville problem any diagonalizable PT-symmetric Hamiltonian with the unbroken PT symmetry has a complete set of positive CPT-normalazable eigenfunctions. For non-diagonalizable Hamiltonians a complete set of CPT-normalazable functions is possible but the functions belonging to the root subspace corresponding to multiple zeros of the characteristic determinant are not eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian anymore.
A Frequency-Domain Stability Method for Reset Systems

description: Nowadays, the demand for an alternative to linear PID controllers has increased because of the rising expectations of the high-precision industry. The potential of reset controllers to solve this important challenge has been extensively demonstrated in the literature. However, similarly to other non-linear controllers, the stability analysis for these controllers is complex and relies on parametric models of the systems which may hinder the applicability of these controllers in industry. The well-known Hbeta method tries to solve this significant issue. However, assessing the H\b{eta} condition in the frequency-domain is complex, especially for high dimensional plants. In addition, it cannot be used to assess UBIBS stability of reset control systems in the case of reseting to non-zero values. These problems have been solved in this paper for the first order reset elements, and an easy-to-use frequency approach for assessing stability of reset control systems is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through a practical example.

description: We show how to obtain the O(N) non-linear sigma model in two dimensions as a strong coupling limit of the corresponding linear sigma model. In taking the strong coupling limit, the squared mass parameter must be given a specific coupling dependence that assures the finiteness of the physical mass scale. The relation discussed in this paper, which applies to the renormalized theories as opposed to the regularized theories, is an example of a general relation between the linear and non-linear models in two and three dimensions.

description: Excerpts from the report Preface: This report represents the first comprehensive study of wool grease recovery and use in the United States. The Wool Advisory Committee, one of the industry advisory groups established under the Research and Marketing Act of 1946 to advise the Department on its research program, recommended in 1947 that one phase of the Department's wool research program be devoted to an economic appraisal of the scouring, recovery, refining, and distribution of wool grease and other byproducts of the wool manufacturing industry. This report is an outgrowth of the above recommendation and deals with the economic aspects of the production, distribution, and consumption of wool grease. In this report, the marketing channels and functions as well as the structure and characteristics of the wool grease industry are described and analyzed in some detail. Grease production by the wool scouring industry and the competitive situation of the product relative to other fats and oils made it necessary to discuss the economic and technical aspects of its production and consumption.

description: A two-dimensional model atom is employed to study the ionization behavior of initially excited atomic states in highly-frequent intense laser pulses beyond the dipole approximation. An additional regime of ionization suppression is found at laser intensities where the stabilization effect is expected to break down. The appearance of this effect is due to a strong coupling of the initial wave function to the ground state of the cycle-averaged space-translated ionic potential, followed by a subsequent population transfer to the ground state during the laser pulse turn-off. Non-dipole effects are found to increase the overall ionization probabilities, but not to suppress or alter this effect.

description: Query Auto Completion (QAC), as the starting point of information retrieval tasks, is critical to user experience. Generally it has two steps: generating completed query candidates according to query prefixes, and ranking them based on extracted features. Three major challenges are observed for a query auto completion system: (1) QAC has a strict online latency requirement. For each keystroke, results must be returned within tens of milliseconds, which poses a significant challenge in designing sophisticated language models for it. (2) For unseen queries, generated candidates are of poor quality as contextual information is not fully utilized. (3) Traditional QAC systems heavily rely on handcrafted features such as the query candidate frequency in search logs, lacking sufficient semantic understanding of the candidate. In this paper, we propose an efficient neural QAC system with effective context modeling to overcome these challenges. On the candidate generation side, this system uses as much information as possible in unseen prefixes to generate relevant candidates, increasing the recall by a large margin. On the candidate ranking side, an unnormalized language model is proposed, which effectively captures deep semantics of queries. This approach presents better ranking performance over state-of-the-art neural ranking methods and reduces $\sim$95\% latency compared to neural language modeling methods. The empirical results on public datasets show that our model achieves a good balance between accuracy and efficiency. This system is served in LinkedIn job search with significant product impact observed.

description: This paper examines several approaches to introduce advertising in systems of demand equations. Advertising is included in the Rotterdam model using an unrestricted specification and three restricted specifications - advertising affects demand alternatively through (1) marginal utilities as in studies by Duffy (1987, 1989, 1990) and Selvanathan (1989), (2) scaling parameters which can be viewed as indicators of product quality, and (3) translation parameters which can be viewed as indicators of basic needs. A test to choose among the alternative specifications is provided and the methodology is applied to data on demand for fruit juice products.

description: Subaru observations of A1689 (z=0.183) are used to derive an accurate, model-independent mass profile for the entire cluster, r<2 Mpc/h, by combining magnification bias and distortion measurements. The projected mass profile steepens quickly with increasing radius, falling away to zero at r~1.0 Mpc/h, well short of the anticipated virial radius. Our profile accurately matches onto the inner profile, r<200 kpc/h, derived from deep HST/ACS images. The combined ACS and Subaru information is well fitted by an NFW profile with virial mass, (1.93 \pm 0.20)10^15 M_sun, and surprisingly high concentration, c_vir=13.7^{+1.4}_{-1.1}, significantly larger than theoretically expected (c_vir~4), corresponding to a relatively steep overall profile. A slightly better fit is achieved with a steep power-law model that has its 2D logarithmic slope -3 and core radius theta_c~1.7' (r_c~210 kpc/h), whereas an isothermal profile is strongly rejected. These results are based on a reliable sample of background galaxies selected to be redder than the cluster E/S0 sequence. By including the faint blue galaxy population a much smaller distortion signal is found, demonstrating that blue cluster members significantly dilute the true signal for r~400 kpc/h. This contamination is likely to affect most weak lensing results to date.

description: The existence of Dark Matter (DM) is a well established fact since many decades, thanks to the observation of the effects of its gravitational interaction with the ordinary matter in the Universe. However, our knowledge of the Dark Matter features is still rather scarce. Indeed, one of the biggest quests in fundamental science today is the investigation of Dark Matter nature, from its origin to its composition, and the way its constituents interact with the ordinary matter, apart from gravity. Huge and ambitious efforts have been spent in the last years into its identification, concentrating especially on the search of viable Weakly Interacting Massive Particle candidates. However, no positive results have been achieved so far along this direction. On the other hand, many fascinating new ideas and models for its interpretation have been blooming: among them, an intriguing hypothesis is that the Dark Matter constituents could be neutral under Standard Model interactions, but they could interact through a new, still unknown, force under a "hidden" charge. This new hidden symmetry would be mediated by a massive gauge boson, the dark photon, which is expected to couple to the Standard Model via a kinetic mixing. The search for such a massive mediator has been pursued with large enthusiasm and dedication in the latest years, as its observation could be within the reach of many already existing experimental facilities, both based on accelerators

description: The exploration of the quark-flavour sector of the Standard Model is one of the hot topics in particle physics of this decade. In these studies, which show a fruitful interplay between theory and experiment, the B-meson system offers a particularly interesting laboratory. After giving an introduction to quark-flavour mixing and CP violation as well as to the theoretical tools to deal with non-leptonic B decays, we discuss popular avenues for new physics to enter the roadmap of quark-flavour physics. This allows us to have a detailed look at the B-factory benchmark modes $B^0_d\to J/ψK_S$, $B^0_d\to ϕK_S$ and $B^0_d\toπ^+π^-$, with a particular emphasis of the impact of new physics. We then perform an analysis of the $B\toπK$ puzzle, which may indicate new sources of CP violation in the electroweak penguin sector, and discuss its implications for rare B and K decays. The next topic is given by $b\to d$ penguin processes, which are now starting to become accessible at the B factories, thereby representing a new territory of the B-physics landscape. Finally, we discuss the prospects for B-decay studies at the Large Hadron Collider, where the $B^0_s$-meson system plays an outstanding role.

Gibinenimidizomin : critical incident study of aboriginal identity attainment
Creators: name: Goodwill, Alanaise Onischin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study explores the facilitation and hindrance of Aboriginal identity attainment. The purpose of this study is to develop a reasonable comprehensive scheme of categories that will describe what facilitates and hinders Aboriginal identity attainment. The research method involved conducting interviews with twelve individual participants, which revealed 138 critical incidents. The 114 critical incidents that helped participants in their Aboriginal identity attainment were placed into twelve categories. The 24 critical incidents that hindered participants in their Aboriginal identity attainment were placed into three categories. The helping categories are: participating in a cultural event/gathering, participating within a group of Aboriginal people, changing self perception, connecting with family, attending a cultural event/gathering, helping other Aboriginal people, being influenced by a grandparent, spiritual experience, verbalizing your experiences as an Aboriginal person, obtaining support from parents, experiencing positive images of Aboriginal people. The hindering categories are: living with separation from Aboriginal people/culture, experiencing racism/prejudice, experiencing negative images of Aboriginal people.

Underdamped, anomalous kinetics in double-well potentials

description: The noise driven motion in a bistable potential acts as the archetypal model of various physical phenomena. Here, we contrast the overdamped dynamics with the full (underdamped) dynamics. For the overdamped particle driven by a non-equilibrium, $α$-stable noise the ratio of forward and backward transition rates depends only on the width of a potential barrier separating both minima. Using analytical and numerical methods, we show that in the regime of full dynamics, contrary to the overdamped case, the ratio of transition rates depends both on widths and heights of the potential barrier. The analytical formula for the ratio of transition rates is corroborated by extensive numerical simulations.

A minimalist model for co-evolving supply and drainage networks

description: Numerous complex systems, both natural and artificial, are characterized by the presence of intertwined supply and/or drainage networks. Here we present a minimalist model of such co-evolving networks in a spatially continuous domain, where the obtained networks can be interpreted as a part of either the counter-flowing drainage or co-flowing supply and drainage mechanisms. The model consists of three coupled, nonlinear partial differential equations that describe spatial density patterns of input and output materials by modifying a mediating scalar field, on which supply and drainage networks are carved. In the 2-dimensional case, the scalar field can be viewed as the elevation of a hypothetical landscape, of which supply and drainage networks are ridges and valleys, respectively. In the 3-dimensional case, the scalar field serves as the chemical signal strength, in which vascularization of the supply and drainage networks occurs above a critical 'erosion' strength. The steady-state solutions are presented as a function of non-dimensional channelization indices for both materials. The spatial patterns of the emerging networks are classified within the branched and congested extreme regimes, within which the resulting networks are characterized based on the absolute as well as the relative values of two non-dimensional indices.
Quantum statistical information contained in a semi-classical Fisher--Husimi measure

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We study here the difference between quantum statistical treatments and semi-classical ones, using as the main research tool a semi-classical, shift-invariant Fisher information measure built up with Husimi distributions. Its semi-classical character notwithstanding, this measure also contains information of a purely quantal nature. Such a tool allows us to refine the celebrated Lieb bound for Wehrl entropies and to discover thermodynamic-like relations that involve the degree of delocalization. Fisher-related thermal uncertainty relations are developed and the degree of purity of canonical distributions, regarded as mixed states, is connected to this Fisher measure as well.
