description: In this paper, we investigate an algorithm to attain additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) performance in spectrally non-white channels, using multicarrier communications, i.e., orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and filterbank multicarrier (FBMC). The non-white channel can be from non-white noise, or more commonly, interference. Our algorithm uses a simple optimization method to find usable subcarriers and assigns different power levels to the subcarriers to attain the equivalent AWGN channel bit error ratio (BER). Subcarriers that experience very high interference are assigned as null subcarriers. After describing our analysis, we show results for two non-white interference signal examples: the Gaussian pulse shaped distance measuring equipment (DME) pulses, and a classical rectangular-pulse interference signal. The DME example is pertinent for currently proposed aviation communication systems, where new multicarrier techniques, e.g., the L-band digital aviation communication systems (LDACS) have been designed as an inlay approach between the high-power DME channels in the L-band. Our results show how using this adaptive technique can improve performance and spectral efficiency, whereas fixed bandwidth schemes such as LDACS could suffer significant performance degradation. These results show the utility of this idea for future adaptive and cognitive radio applications for aviation or other non-white channels.

description: In this rejoinder, we respond to two commentaries on the study by Greiff, S.; Stadler, M.; Sonnleitner, P.; Wolff, C.; Martin, R. Sometimes less is more: Comparing the validity of complex problem solving measures. Intelligence 2015, 50, 100–113. The study was the first to address the important comparison between a classical measure of complex problem solving (CPS) and the more recent multiple complex systems (MCS) approach regarding their validity. In the study, we investigated the relations between one classical microworld as the initially developed method (here, the Tailorshop) with three more recently developed multiple complex systems (MCS; here, MicroDYN, Genetics Lab, and MicroFIN) tests. We found that the MCS tests showed higher levels of convergent validity with each other than with the Tailorshop even after reasoning was controlled for, thus empirically distinguishing between the two approaches. The commentary by Kretzschmar and the commentary by Funke, Fischer, and Holt expressed several concerns with how our study was conducted, our data was analyzed, and our results were interpreted. Whereas we acknowledge and agree with some of the more general statements made in these commentaries, we respectfully disagree with others, or we consider them to be at least partially in contrast with the existing literature and the currently available empirical evidence.

description: Nowadays, recommender systems (RSes) are becoming increasingly important to individual users and business marketing, especially in the online e-commerce scenarios. However, while the majority of recommendation algorithms proposed in the literature have focused their efforts on improving prediction accuracy, other important aspects of recommendation quality, such as diversity of recommendations, have been more or less overlooked. In the latest decade, recommendation diversity has drawn more research attention, especially in the models based on user-item bipartite networks. In this paper, we introduce a family of approaches to extract fabricated experts from users in RSes, named as the Expert Tracking Approaches (ExTrA for short), and explore the capability of these fabricated experts in improving the recommendation diversity, by highlighting them in a well-known bipartite network-based method, called the Mass Diffusion (MD for short) model. These ExTrA-based models are compared with two state-of-the-art MD-improved models HHP and BHC, with respect to recommendation accuracy and diversity. Comprehensive empirical results on three real-world datasets MovieLens, Netflix and RYM show that, our proposed ExTrA-based models can achieve significant diversity gain while maintain comparable level of recommendation accuracy.

description: Mathematical model that allows for direct tracking of the homoepitaxial crystal growth out of the window etched in the solid, pre-deposited layer on the substrate is described. The growth is governed by the normal (to the crystal-vapor interface) flux from the vapor phase and by the interface diffusion. The model accounts for possibly inhomogeneous energy of the mask surface and for strong anisotropies of crystal-vapor interfacial energy and kinetic mobility. Results demonstrate that the motion of the crystal-mask contact line slows down abruptly as radius of curvature of the mask edge approaches zero. Numerical procedure is suggested to overcome difficulties associated with ill-posedness of the evolution problem for the interface with strong energy anisotropy. Keywords: Thin films, epitaxy, MOCVD, surface diffusion, interface dynamics, contact lines, rough surfaces, wetting, regularization of ill-posed evolution problems.

description: Understanding the functional connectivity of the brain has become a major goal of neuroscience. In many situatons, the relative phase difference, together with coherence patterns, have been employed to infer the direction of the information flow. However, it has been recently shown in local field potential data from monkeys the existence of a synchronized regime in which unidirectionally coupled areas can present both positive and negative phase differences. During the counterintuitive regime, called anticipated synchronization (AS), the phase difference does not reflect the causality. Here we investigate coherence and causality at the alpha frequency band (10 Hz) between pairs of electroencephalogram (EEG) electrodes in humans during a GO/NO-GO task. We show that human EEG signals can exhibit anticipated synchronization, which is characterized by a unidirectional influence from an electrode A to an electrode B, but the electrode B leads the electrode A in time. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first verification of AS in EEG signals and in the human brain. The usual delayed synchronization (DS) regime is also present between many pairs. DS is characterized by a unidirectional influence from an electrode A to an electrode B and a positive phase difference between A and B which indicates that the electrode A leads the electrode B in time. Moreover, we show that EEG signals exhibit diversity in phase relations: the pairs of electrodes can present in-phase, anti-phase, or out-of-phase synchronization with a similar distribution of positive and negative phase differences.

Does culture affect the location of death among cancer patients in British Columbia? : a pilot study utilizing standard and novel statistical methods in end-of-life research
Creators: name: Regier, Michael David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Objective Understanding the clinical, cultural, social, demographic and economic landscape that affects end-of-life health service utilization for British Columbian cancer patients is novel work. The location of death was taken as the initial use of health services to investigate. The goals for this thesis are to understand the trends in the place of death from 1997 to 2003 for adult British Columbians that died of cancer, understand which predictive factors of dying out of hospital, develop new indicators of culture, and evaluate the utility of data mining for end-of-life research. Methods The subjects were all adults, age 18 years and older who died of cancer, in British Columbia as identified from the death certificates, from 1997 to 2003. Data from the British Columbia Cancer Registry and the British Columbian Vital Statistics were linked. To this the Postal Code Conversion File program was used to associate each subject with a dissemination area. This was used to impute ecological measures of income, ethnicity, language and religion to each patient. The culture indicators were based upon an indicator developed using principal component analysis and k-means. When considering the utility of linear discriminant analysis, logistic regression, neural networks, classification trees, and nearest neighbours for end-of-life research, a sub set comprised of all adults aged 20 years and older from 1999-2003 was obtained from the previously described data set. Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve, Area Under the Curve (AUC), Misclassification Curve and Hit curve and cross-validation were used. Conclusions After all other significant factors have been taken into consideration; people who were' more likely to die out of hospital were females, lived in neighbourhoods in a higher income quintile, lived in either the Interior or Northern Health Authorities, lived in communities with less than 500,000 people, died from breast, colorectal, pancreatic or prostate cancer, had longer survival times, and were older. It was found that people associated with the derived the Aboriginal Presence, British Isles Presence and the Americas and Europe ethnic origins cluster and those people associated with the Chinese .Presence and the Punjabi Presence mother tongue cluster were less likely to die out of hospital.

description: Seit der Reform der Gemeinsamen Marktordnung Milch im Jahr 2003 eskalieren die Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Milchbauern, Molkereien, Politikern und Lobbyisten immer wieder. Ein wesentlicher Streitpunkt ist die Höhe des Milchauszahlungspreises für die Landwirte. Bei diesen Diskussionen wird die Zahlung der im Zuge der Reform erhöhten Flächenbeihilfen häufig außer Acht gelassen. In diesem Beitrag wird untersucht, inwieweit die zusätzlichen Flächenbeihilfen den Einkommensverlust infolge der Interventionspreissenkungen ausgeglichen haben. Nach einfachen Vergleichen der Milchauszahlungspreise oder Rohstoffwerte vor und nach der Reform ergibt sich eine deutliche Überkompensation. Bei diesem Vergleich wird aber der Einfluss von Weltmarktpreisänderungen auf das Ergebnis nicht berücksichtigt. Deren Berücksichtigung mithilfe eines Fehlerkorrekturmodells führt zum gegenteiligen Ergebnis. Es ergibt sich für den Zeitraum von 2004 bis 2008 eine Unterkompensation von ca. 100 Prozent. Demnach wurden die Landwirte im Rahmen der Reform von 2003 bislang bei weitem nicht vollständig für die reformbedingten Einkommenseffekte entschädigt. Soon after the 2003 reform of the Common Agricultural Policy, milk farmers started protesting against low milk prices. Though farmers gained public attention and sympathy for their case, the compensation payments included in the reform package are never part of the debate. Thus, only the income-decreasing side of the reform is pointed out. We empirically investigate to what extent the income reduction for dairy farmers is covered by the increased farm area payments in the 2003 reform. A comparison of milk prices prior to and after the 2003 reform indicates significant overcompensation. This comparison ignores the impact of world market price changes. Considering these by a vector error correction model leads to opposite results. Thus, up to now farmers are by far not compensated for the income loss generated by the price reduction in the 2003 reform.

description: The effect of galaxy interactions on star formation has been investigated using Data Release 1 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Both the imaging and spectroscopy data products have been used to construct a catalogue of nearest companions to a volume limited (0.03 < z < 0.1) sample of galaxies drawn from the main galaxy sample of SDSS. Of the 13973 galaxies in the volume limited sample, we have identified 12492 systems with companions at projected separations less than 300 kpc. Star-formation rates for the volume-limited sample have been calculated from extinction and aperture corrected H-alpha luminosities and, where available, IRAS data. Specific star formation rates were calculated by estimating galaxy masses from z-band luminosities, and r-band concentration indices were used as an indicator of morphological class. The mean specific star-formation rate is found to be strongly enhanced for projected separations of less than 30 kpc. For late-type galaxies the correlation extends out to projected separations of 300 kpc and is most pronounced in actively star-forming systems. The specific star-formation rate is observed to decrease with increasing recessional velocity difference, but the magnitude of this effect is small compared to that associated with the projected separation. We also observe a tight relationship between the concentration index and pair separation; the mean concentration index is largest for pairs with separations of approximately 75 kpc and declines rapidly for separations smaller than this. This is interpreted as being due to the presence of tidally-triggered nuclear starbursts in close pairs. Further, we find no dependence of star formation enhancement on the morphological type or mass of the companion galaxy

description: We implement metallic layers of Si-doped (110) GaAs as modulation doping in high mobility p-type heterostructures, changing to p-growth conditions for the doping layer alone. The strongly auto-compensated doping is first characterized in bulk samples, identifying the metal-insulator transition density and confirming classic hopping conduction in the insulating regime. To overcome the poor morphology inherent to Si p-type (110) growth, heterostructures are fabricated with only the modulation doping layer grown under p-type conditions. Such heterostructures show a hole mobility of 1.75x10^2 cm^2/Vs at density p=2.4x10^11 cm^-2. We identify the zero field spin-splitting characteristic of p-type heterostructures, but observe a remarkably isotropic mobility and a persistent photoconductivity unusual for p-heterojunctions grown using other doping techniques. This new modulated growth technique is particularly relevant for p-type cleaved-edge overgrowth and for III-V growth chambers where Si is the only dopant.

description: Social innovation is often appointed as an essential part of agricultural and rural innovation. Everybody seems to agree that social innovation is important but what exactly is meant by the term remains often unclear. This paper aims at clarifying the meaning and significance of the concept by going back to its root in innovation science and policy. It appoints three main interpretations of social innovation, referring to the social mechanism of innovation, the social responsibility of innovation and the need for innovating society. Studying its application in the field of agriculture and rural development reveals that social innovation is rarely referred to when agriculture as a singular economic activity is concerned, but prominently present in discussions about rural development. Here social innovation may be referred to when identifying society’s need for more sustainable production methods, the necessity for collaboration and social learning, and the scope of change needed for revitalising (rural) society. Often, however, social innovation is presented as a tangle of interdependent processes and beneficial outcomes. Its fuzziness contributes to its discursive power in discussions about agricultural politics and the significance of sustainability, but also hides the valued-loadedness of social innovation. As a result its critical potential becomes neutralised. For gaining more insight in how to more effectively support social innovation, it is important to disentangle the social innovation jumble, to unravel the diverse interrelations and to explore and monitor its functioning and contribution to processes of social change and renewal.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Colin Scott Mackenzie, my father’s older brother, joined the Ross Mountain Battery (RMB), Territorial Force, of the 4th Highland Mountain Brigade in 1909 on his 16th birthday. This was the earliest date he was allowed to join and earlier than normal because he was a ‘boy bugler’. The Ross Mountain Battery (RMB) was based in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis.

Mountain batteries were light artillery able only to fire 10lb shells, but they were supremely mobile and remarkably accurate. They could quickly be taken apart and carried by horses or mules to wherever they were needed – often enough the men themselves could manhandle the guns into the final positions. In modern times mortars have largely usurped their role.

Colin Scott, like most of the ‘originals’, had just returned from the 1914 Annual Camp with the RMB when he was called up on the very outbreak of war. He was at both Gallipoli landings, Cape Helles and Sulva Bay, and formed part of the battery rear-guard at the latter’s evacuation. I remember him telling me that the evacuation with no loss of life was no miracle; armies can’t move quietly. The Turks knew perfectly well their uninvited guests were leaving and didn’t want them to change their mind by firing at them. He also said the soldiers were short of everything except corned beef which they sucked from the tin (it became fluid in the heat) before the swarms of flies could get at it.

Colin Scott also fought throughout the Sinai campaign, but was invalided home in late 1916 when he had already been ‘time expired’ for some years. He spent some time in hospital in the UK and then returned to his interrupted law studies, eventually becoming Procurator Fiscal for the Western Isles. In the Second World War he was 2i/c the Lewis Battalion of the Home Guard.

description: The turn of agrarian sciences and agricultural extension from reductionist and transfer of technology, respectively, towards systemic approaches has transformed agricultural/rural development thinking in the last decades. Nevertheless, the emergence of Agricultural Innovation Systems (AIS) has to confront a number of gaps among which the expert – lay knowledge gap is of major importance. This paper aims at exploring such a gap as well as obstacles to participatory development from a Critical Realist point of view. Critical realism (CR) with its realist, differentiated and stratified ontology aims at interpreting the world in order to ultimately bring about transformation. CR allows for new insights on the nature of knowledge as well as on development research and practice. It thus provides useful guidelines concerning the emerging ‘intermediation’ functions within AIS.

description: The new challenges facing the European agricultural and rural sectors call for a review of the links between knowledge production and its use to foster innovation, and for a deeper analysis of the potential of the current Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) to react to the evolving context. This paper highlights how the Italian AKIS places itself in the new emerging framework, with a particular emphasis on the incentives guiding the system and the experiences of monitoring and evaluating the national AKIS policy. It shows that important changes are needed to approach the new efforts Europe is adopting to match innovation demand and supply.

description: The share of intermittent renewable energy sources in power generation is ever increasing. Large scale energy storage systems provide essential grid services to ensure secure and stable energy supply. Pumped Thermal Energy Storage (PTES), a combination of a power-to-heat, a thermal storage and a heat-to-power system, could provide a possible solution. Rankine-based vapor compression heat pumps are considered as a suitable power-to-heat technology. At the moment however it is unclear if PTES is capable of delivering grid balancing services. To address this question, a dynamic model of a heat pump was made in Modelica and evaluated according to the prequalification criteria of grid balancing services. The results show that the heat pump qualifies for delivery of primary, secondary and tertiary grid balancing services when neglecting the mechanical inertia of the compressor. Neglecting mechanical inertia is a good approximation as typically an accurate prediction of the thermal performance is wanted. However, when assessing the suitability for grid balancing services, the electrical, rather than the thermal response time is of interest. This response is directly related to the compressor behavior and control. Therefore, this work also includes the sensitivity of the electric response time in function of the compressor inertia. As such providing novel insights and recommendations for the dynamic modelling of heat pumps in the context of the electrical grid balancing.

description: Recent experimental measurements of atomic intensity correlations through atom shot noise suggest that atomic quadrature phase correlations may soon be measured with a similar precision. We propose a test of local realism with mesoscopic numbers of massive particles based on such measurements. Using dissociation of a Bose-Einstein condensate of diatomic molecules into bosonic atoms, we demonstrate that strongly entangled atomic beams may be produced which possess Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlations in field quadratures, in direct analogy to the position and momentum correlations originally considered by EPR.

description: The ballistic deposition on a one dimensional substrate of grains with one degree of freedom, called spin, is studied with respect to relaxation processes during deposition. The "spin" represents the grain anisotropy, e.g. its longest axis with respect to the vertical. The grains interact through some contact energy (J) and are allowed to flip with a probability q during deposition and relaxation. Different relaxation processes are investigated. The pile structure is investigated, i.e. the density and "magnetisation", as a function of q and J. A percolation transition is found across which the cluster size changes from exponential-like to a power law-like dependence. The differences between "ferromagnetic" and "anti-ferromagnetic"-like contact energies are emphasized as a function of q.

description: Knowledge and innovation are keywords in a context of resource scarcity and sustainable intensification of agriculture. But in order to fully use the knowledge potential and to transform research results into innovative practices, there is a need for an adequate configuration of the agricultural knowledge and innovation system (AKIS). This configuration should be considered in relation to its own specific context and history. This paper focuses on the particular situation of ornamental plant production in Vlaanderen (Flanders), Belgium. In practice, we see that innovations in this sector are not limited to individual companies, but that new collective structures are put in place. The sector’s geographical clustering within the province of Oost-Vlaanderen is hereby an important facilitating factor. The new AKIS constructions have their own logic and objectives, but illustrate the need for further development of interlinkages between AKIS subsystems. The four examples of networking initiatives focus upon the production practices of ornamental plant production companies (VMS), alignment of research (Technopool Sierteelt), knowledge transfer and interaction between research and primary production (Sietinet) and, finally, co-creation of new varieties between research and the growers (BEST-select and Azanova). The results show that such initiatives can indeed contribute positively to the functioning of the AKIS. A partial approach, which looks at specific interactions instead of the AKIS as a whole, is thereby a more practical starting point than an integrated or overarching strategy.

The Interaction of 3C401 with the Surrounding Intracluster Medium

description: We present an observation of the radio-galaxy 3C401 and the surrounding intracluster medium (ICM) of its host galaxy cluster by the Chandra X-ray Observatory. This luminous radio-galaxy is notable in that it has characteristics intermediate between the FRI and FRII morphologies. We clearly detect point-like emission coincident with the radio-core of 3C401, although the spatial resolution of even Chandra is only 2kpc at the distance of 3C401 (z=0.201) and so the possibility remains that this is a dense (and rapidly cooling) thermal gaseous core in the center of the ICM atmosphere. Strong departures from spherical symmetry in the central 10-20kpc of the ICM clearly suggest interaction between the ICM and the radio-lobes of 3C401. A central X-ray bar probably results from the evacuation of two ICM cavities by the expanding radio lobes. Beyond these central regions, the cluster possesses a flatter profile than many clusters of comparable mass suggesting the importance of ICM heating and entropy injection by 3C401. We detect an interesting cross-like structure in the ICM on 100kpc scales. We speculate that this could be a radio-galaxy induced disturbance corresponding to a time when 3C401 was substantially more powerful. A particularly exciting possibility is that this cross-like structure corresponds to a large scale global g-mode oscillation excited by a past outburst of 3C401.

description: As an optical machine learning framework, Diffractive Deep Neural Networks (D2NN) take advantage of data-driven training methods used in deep learning to devise light-matter interaction in 3D for performing a desired statistical inference task. Multi-layer optical object recognition platforms designed with this diffractive framework have been shown to generalize to unseen image data achieving e.g., >98% blind inference accuracy for hand-written digit classification. The multi-layer structure of diffractive networks offers significant advantages in terms of their diffraction efficiency, inference capability and optical signal contrast. However, the use of multiple diffractive layers also brings practical challenges for the fabrication and alignment of these diffractive systems for accurate optical inference. Here, we introduce and experimentally demonstrate a new training scheme that significantly increases the robustness of diffractive networks against 3D misalignments and fabrication tolerances in the physical implementation of a trained diffractive network. By modeling the undesired layer-to-layer misalignments in 3D as continuous random variables in the optical forward model, diffractive networks are trained to maintain their inference accuracy over a large range of misalignments; we term this diffractive network design as vaccinated D2NN (v-D2NN). We further extend this vaccination strategy to the training of diffractive networks that use differential detectors at the output plane as well as to jointly-trained hybrid (optical-electronic) networks to reveal that all of these diffractive designs improve their resilience to misalignments by taking into account possible 3D fabrication variations and displacements during their training phase.

description: Farmers must continuously adapt production and management systems in order to maintain and enhance the competitiveness and sustainability of their businesses. The development and implementation of innovations require both information and the farmers’ willingness to change daily work routines. Learning and knowledge transfer among farmers, technology developers, experts and university teams ensure the development and application of innovative ideas which are crucial for a sustainable growth in food (and non-food) production. The paper presents results from three transdisciplinary research projects that are part of a wider initiative aimed at establishing a farmer-university network in the north-east of Germany where economic and farming conditions are unfavourable. A team from Eberswalde University facilitates the network. The partners in the network are agricultural farms, agricultural organisations of Berlin-Brandenburg and federal research institutes. The results obtained to date indicate that lifelong learning approaches are promising tools to foster agricultural innovations and thus contribute to the resilience of the agricultural sector. Lifelong learning helps to engage with farmers who are not normally reached. The success of joint learning projects depends among other factors on the relevance and quality of offers, professional management of the network and facilitation of activities. Farmer-university networks function effectively if all involved see themselves and work together as equal partners.

description: There is increasing awareness of the need for new approaches to delivering agricultural extension based on an interactive model of networking systems, which integrate knowledge production, adaptation, advice and education. This paper explores the literature surrounding the modelling of farmer decision making, concepts of learning and behaviour change, and ways to stimulate attitude and behaviour change. It shows that facilitated group learning can be a very effective tool for supporting innovation amongst farmers and cites the ADER project, which was implemented in the East of England region between 2001 and 2007, as an example of good practice.
