description: There is a great diversity of clustering and community detection algorithms, which are key components of many data analysis and exploration systems. To the best of our knowledge, however, there does not exist yet any uniform benchmarking framework, which is publicly available and suitable for the parallel benchmarking of diverse clustering algorithms on a wide range of synthetic and real-world datasets. In this paper, we introduce Clubmark, a new extensible framework that aims to fill this gap by providing a parallel isolation benchmarking platform for clustering algorithms and their evaluation on NUMA servers. Clubmark allows for fine-grained control over various execution variables (timeouts, memory consumption, CPU affinity and cache policy) and supports the evaluation of a wide range of clustering algorithms including multi-level, hierarchical and overlapping clustering techniques on both weighted and unweighted input networks with built-in evaluation of several extrinsic and intrinsic measures. Our framework is open-source and provides a consistent and systematic way to execute, evaluate and profile clustering techniques considering a number of aspects that are often missing in state-of-the-art frameworks and benchmarking systems.

Year: 2019

description: Environmental pollution is one the major issue for entire world. Burning of petroleum and gas in combustion engines of vehicles is one the biggest sources of harmful environmental pollution. To keep in mind this issue, hybrid technology is evolving as one of the latest way to get rid of this problem but obviously it will take much time to remove almost 70% gasoline engines overall in the world. In this study, same sort of issue is discussed. Improvement of fuel consumption in automobile by increasing the number of gears is explained in this paper with graphs. Parallel hybrid electric vehicle is modelled by using Matlab/simulink for 4th and 6th gear automatic transmission. 4th gear transmission is not much fuel economic due to which number of gears are increased up to 6 to improve the fuel economy of hybrid vehicle. The logic behind the increment of gears is also explained very well. Improvement of fuel consumption and mileage of vehicle is presented by theoretical and also by comparing the graphs by using different drive cycles for 4th and 6th gears automatic transmissions.

U.S. Route 1: Catalyst of Maine Corridor Community Planning & Preservation
Creators: Berry, Madeline R.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2019
Subjects: Historic preservation
City planning
Highway planning

description: Highways are not generally thought of as historic resources or as particularly beautiful infrastructure. However, since the 1926 U. S. Numbered Highway System and the 1956 Interstate Highway System, highways have played a huge roll in the planning and preservation of our urban environment. These impacts are generally analyzed through the lens of interstate highways and large cities like Boston and Los Angeles, but what about how state highways affect mid-sized and smaller cities and towns? In order to tackle this underexplored relationship, this thesis looks at three small cities located within a 100-mile stretch of Route 1 in Maine. The central question is: will a close examination of the relationship of three towns (Bath, Belfast, and Ellsworth) to Route 1 reveal a pattern of planning and preservation? Further, what will this pattern look like and where else could it be found? Auxiliary questions include: is there a set of abstract rules of town center structure in relation to Route 1? What factors contributed to Route 1’s path and how has it changed? Did towns and counties have agency in Route 1’s placement? Have communities in close proximity to Route 1 had opportunities to influence the governance and impact of the highway? How have legislative and physical actions in connection to the highway directly affected town planning and development?

To answer these questions, this thesis utilizes a mixed-method research design incorporating grounded theory, content analysis, documentary analysis, and critical visual analysis techniques. This thesis is not meant to prove definitively that highways always inspire planning and preservation action. However, it does show that highways can influence planning and preservation, and that this influence is often neglected in both planning and preservation literature, especially in regards to small- and mid-size cities and towns. This thesis demonstrates that highways should be considered historic infrastructure and can be integral in forming not only a municipality’s identity, but also its planning and preservation practices.

description: We pursue a general theory of quantum games. We show that quantum games are more efficient than classical games, and provide a saturated upper bound for this efficiency. We demonstrate that the set of finite classical games is a strict subset of the set of finite quantum games. We also deduce the quantum version of the Minimax Theorem and the Nash Equilibrium Theorem.

description: Quantifying the degree of atrophy is done clinically by neuroradiologists following established visual rating scales. For these assessments to be reliable the rater requires substantial training and experience, and even then the rating agreement between two radiologists is not perfect. We have developed a model we call AVRA (Automatic Visual Ratings of Atrophy) based on machine learning methods and trained on 2350 visual ratings made by an experienced neuroradiologist. It provides fast and automatic ratings for Scheltens' scale of medial temporal atrophy (MTA), the frontal subscale of Pasquier's Global Cortical Atrophy (GCA-F) scale, and Koedam's scale of Posterior Atrophy (PA). We demonstrate substantial inter-rater agreement between AVRA's and a neuroradiologist ratings with Cohen's weighted kappa values of $κ_w$ = 0.74/0.72 (MTA left/right), $κ_w$ = 0.62 (GCA-F) and $κ_w$ = 0.74 (PA), with an inherent intra-rater agreement of $κ_w$ = 1. We conclude that automatic visual ratings of atrophy can potentially have great clinical and scientific value, and aim to present AVRA as a freely available toolbox.

description: In der Saison 2015/2016 sind die Absatzzahlen bei den Landmaschinen in der Halmgutwerbung aufgrund geringer Erzeugerpreise in der Landwirtschaft deutlich abgefallen. Dies wirkt sich am stärksten auf den Absatz von Ladewagen aus, Großpackenpressen hingegen können einen kleinen Zuwachs verbuchen.
Bei den Feldhäckslern ist ein gleichbleibender Trend zu mehr Effizienz zu verzeichnen. Umgesetzt wird dies durch die Verwendung von Assistenzsystemen, die den Fahrer entlasten und die Maschinen in optimalen Betriebspunkten betreiben. Versuche zeigen die Entkopplung von Aggregaten vom Powerbelt am Vorsatzantrieb sowie beim Wurfbeschleuniger. Auch bei den Pressen nehmen Assistenzsysteme weiterhin zu. Diese ermöglichen hohe Pressdichten und gleichmäßige Ballen bei gleichzeitiger Fahrerentlastung. Die Messeranzahl, vor allem beim Pressen von Stroh, wird weiter gesteigert. Lade- und Häckseltransportwagen erhalten Verbesserungen im Bereich des Fahrwerks und der Knickdeichselsteuerung.
description: In the 2015/2016 season, the sales figures for crop harvesting fell notedly due to low producer prices in agriculture. This has the greatest impact on the sales of loader wagons. Large square balers instead are showing a small increase.
In the case of forage harvesters, there is a constant trend towards greater efficiency. This is achieved by the use of assistance systems which support the driver and operate the machine at optimum operating points. The decoupling of assemblies from the powerbelt was introduced on the chopper attachments as well as on the crop accelerator. Also in balers, assistance systems continue to grow. These enable high press densities and evenly shaped bales with simultaneous driver relief. The number of knives, especially for straw, increased further. Loader and transport wagons improved in the chassis and the pivoting drawbar control.

US Embassies of the Cold War: Emerging Private Market Preservation Alternatives
Creators: Peterson, David
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2018
Subjects: Historic preservation
Embassy buildings
Cold War (1945-1989)
Investments

description: In this thesis, I argue that the preservation of the US Embassies of the Cold War (1948-1960) is possible only by embracing new, emerging private-market mechanisms, in particular, the socially and environmentally focused sector known as impact investing. Since the passage of the Historic Tax Credit (HTC) in 1976, preservation’s finance tools have remained stagnant while the world’s financial markets have become highly sophisticated and specialized. The embassies are important national symbols of America, reflecting a spirit and an era of the “Greatest Generation.” These significant architectural buildings are being rapidly decommissioned for security reasons and sold to finance new embassy construction, creating a major preservation challenge—there are no available sources of capital to save them. The US government is effectively broke, the State Department is not in the business of preservation, the National Park Service cannot afford repairs or maintenance even to our most recognized memorials and monuments—Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial—and the antiquated HTC cannot be used internationally. This thesis will argue that the only way to resolve the preservation problem is by accessing the capital of impact investing, defined as investments which provide both a financial return and a social or environmental benefit. At a time when positive symbols of American democracy are most needed, the US Embassies of the Cold War will soon disappear unless a private market preservation solution is utilized.    Keywords:  US Embassy preservation; impact investing; cultural diplomacy; Cold War; public-private partnerships.
Quantum gravity effects in the CGHS model of collapse to a black hole

description: We show that only a sector of the classical solution space of the CGHS model describes formation of black holes through collapse of matter. This sector has either right or left moving matter. We describe the sector which has left moving matter in canonical language. In the nonperturbative quantum theory all operators are expressed in terms of the matter field operator which is represented on a Fock space. We discuss existence of large quantum fluctuations of the metric operator when the matter field is approximately classical. We end with some comments which may pertain to Hawking radiation in the context of the model.

Publisher: name: International Journal of Innovative Technology and Interdisciplinary Sciences
Year: 2019

description: In many developing countries, main parameters are measured at meteorological stations, but in some stations solar radiation measurements may not be available. Solar radiation measurements may not be performed due to equipment installation, maintenance, repair costs and calibration requirements. The best way to achieve a physical value is to measure. Estimation models are used to obtain solar radiation values where measurements are not exist. These models allow estimating global solar radiation with the aid of other measured meteorological parameters. In this study, a literature review is given, the global solar radiation estimation models and their applications are mentioned.

Influence of gravity waves on the climatology of high-altitude Martian carbon dioxide ice clouds

description: Carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) ice clouds have been routinely observed in the middle atmosphere of Mars. However, there are still uncertainties concerning physical mechanisms that control their altitude, geographical, and seasonal distributions. Using the Max Planck Institute Martian General Circulation Model (MPI-MGCM), incorporating a state-of-the-art whole atmosphere subgrid-scale gravity wave parameterization [Yiğit et al., 2008], we demonstrate that internal gravity waves generated by lower atmospheric weather processes have wide reaching impact on the Martian climate. Globally, GWs cool the upper atmosphere of Mars by $\sim$10 % and facilitate high-altitude CO$_2$ ice cloud formation. CO$_2$ ice cloud seasonal variations in the mesosphere and the mesopause region appreciably coincide with the spatio-temporal variations of GW effects, providing insight into the observed distribution of clouds. Our results suggest that GW propagation and dissipation constitute a necessary physical mechanism for CO$_2$ ice cloud formation in the Martian upper atmosphere during all seasons.

description: This article is an interdisciplinary review and an on-going progress report over the last few years made by myself and collaborators in certain fundamental subjects on two major theoretic branches in mathematics and theoretical physics: algebraic geometry and quantum physics. I shall take a practical approach, concentrating more on explicit examples rather than formal developments. Topics covered are divided in three sections: (I) Algebraic geometry on two-dimensional exactly solvable statistical lattice models and its related Hamiltonians: I will report results on the algebraic geometry of rapidity curves appeared in the chiral Potts model, and the algebraic Bethe Ansatz equation in connection with quantum inverse scattering method for the related one-dimensional Hamiltonion chain, e.g., XXZ, Hofstadter type Hamiltonian. (II) Infinite symmetry algebras arising from quantum spin chain and conformal field theory: I will explain certain progress made on Onsager algebra, the relation with the superintegrable chiral Potts quantum chain and problems on its spectrum. In conformal field theory, mathematical aspects of characters of N=2 superconformal algebra are discussed, especially on the modular invariant property connected to the theory. (III). Algebraic geometry problems on orbifolds stemming from string theory: I will report recent progress on crepant resolutions of quotient singularity of dimension greater than or equal to three. The direction of present-day research of engaging finite group representations in the geometry of orbifolds is briefly reviewed, and the mathematical aspect of various formulas on the topology of string vacuum will be discussed.

U.S. Military Career Transition: An Exploratory Interview Study of the Learning Experiences of Enlisted Military Personnel Transitioning from Active Duty to the Civilian Workforce

description: Increases in the number of enlisted veterans transitioning from active duty to the civilian world have drawn attention to a need for research in terms of unemployment to examine how separated service members experience transition from their perspective. Fifteen separated enlisted veterans from four of the five military branches were selected and interviewed in this study. The focus was to understand better the complexities of reintegrating into the civilian workforce, as experienced by veterans from the enlisted military population.
      By using qualitative methodologies including exploratory interviews and a focus group, the findings revealed four major themes on how service members described their transition experience: (a) perception that military leadership does not provide adequate support when transitioning and the need to become more self-directed in one’s own learning; (b) belief that the military TAP class is helpful but needs major changes to truly be effective; (c) description of a battle buddy or a family member as a positive influence in helping with the transition process; and (d) experiencing significant challenges with civilian employers when transitioning out of the military.
      An analysis of the findings led the researcher to conclude that transitioning veterans must become self-directed in their learning in order to transition successfully. Moreover, because they are at varying levels of being self-directed when they transition, additional guidance is needed from military leadership, family, and other veterans for the purpose of their development.
      The analysis also yielded a principal recommendation for military leadership to advocate for quality training programs that are specified from the separated enlisted population for what resources they need to assist with transition to the civilian sector. Additional recommendations were presented to transitioning service members on the importance of managing their own success and believing in their abilities to be resilient, valuable members of the civilian community.
Efficiency Based Comparison of Project Delivery Methods

description: Public Private Partnerships (PPP) are the future of infrastructure project delivery. Majority of the PPPs have been successful except a few over the past decade. The reasons for their failure are well documented by researchers. The misconceptions about PPPs make it increasingly difficult to pursue projects using PPP delivery system. One of the root causes of the misconceptions is from the ambiguities arising from qualitative data and assessments. To overcome this issue, efficiency-based comparison of project delivery methods utilizing Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for decision making is presented through this paper. Proposed approach uses qualitative ratings and harnesses the integral utility of the ratings obtained while conducting objective assessment of qualitative data. California’s Presidio Parkway Project is used for case study analysis and the data is varied to create three hypothetical scenarios to determine sensitivity of the model. Results from case study are consistent with actual project implementation and the sensitivity analyses result are found to be consistent.

description: Electrostatically defined quantum dot arrays offer a compelling platform for quantum computation and simulation. However, tuning up such arrays with existing techniques becomes impractical when going beyond a handful of quantum dots. Here, we present a method for systematically adding quantum dots to an array one dot at a time, in such a way that the number of electrons on previously formed dots is unaffected. The method allows individual control of the number of electrons on each of the dots, as well as of the interdot tunnel rates. We use this technique to tune up a linear array of eight GaAs quantum dots such that they are occupied by one electron each. This new method overcomes a critical bottleneck in scaling up quantum-dot based qubit registers.

description: This thesis is an intellectual history of the idea of urban preservation in China from its origins in the 1950s, through its survival despite political repression during the 1960s and 1970s, to its becoming official policy in the 1980s. This thesis addresses a history that has been overlooked, as the period between the 1950s and 1980s is generally skipped over in textbooks and articles about Chinese urban preservation. I unveil the social, academic, and professional histories that covertly nurtured and carried forward the idea of urban preservation. I tell the story of individuals who fought for preservation, often at great personal risk. The idea of the “historic city” was first advocated by Liang Sicheng (1901–1972) in 1950. Unfortunately, Liang’s proposal was at odds with Mao and the central government’s ideology of Soviet-style urban development. Liang and other intellectuals who had advocated urban preservation became the targets of political purges from 1957 to 1976 during a serious of mass movements, including the Cultural Revolution. During this time, Liang’s idea was safeguarded and developed in secret by his circle: Luo Zhewen (1924–2012), Zheng Xiaoxie (1916–2017), Shan Shiyuan (1907–1998) and Hou Renzhi (1911–2013). Liang's influence was strongest in the secret pedagogical experiments at Tongji University in Shanghai. He inspired a generation of scholars like Ruan Yisan (1934–) and Dong Jianhong (1926–). They laid the academic foundation for urban preservation projects in the 1980s. After the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976, Ruan and Dong joined the surviving scholars in Liang's circle. They conspired to reintroduce urban preservation into policy and education, working to create the basis for the 1982 law on urban heritage.

description: We are investigating universal relations between different normalisations of the moment of inertia and the compactness of neutron stars in slow rotation approximation. We study the relations in particular class of massive scalar-sensor theories with self-interaction, for which significant deviations from General Relativity are allowed for values of the parameters that are in agreement with the observations. Moment of inertia-compactness relations are examined for different normalisation of the moment of inertia. It is shown that for all studied cases the deviations from EOS universality are small for the examined equations of state. On the other hand the scalarization can lead to large deviations from the general relativistic universal relations for values of the parameters that are in agreement with the current observations that can be potentially used to set further test the scalar-tensor theories.

description: Time-dependent processes are often analysed using the power spectral density (PSD), calculated by taking an appropriate Fourier transform of individual trajectories and finding the associated ensemble-average. Frequently, the available experimental data sets are too small for such ensemble averages, and hence it is of a great conceptual and practical importance to understand to which extent relevant information can be gained from $S(f,T)$, the PSD of a single trajectory. Here we focus on the behavior of this random, realization-dependent variable, parametrized by frequency $f$ and observation-time $T$, for a broad family of anomalous diffusions---fractional Brownian motion (fBm) with Hurst-index $H$---and derive exactly its probability density function. We show that $S(f,T)$ is proportional---up to a random numerical factor whose universal distribution we determine---to the ensemble-averaged PSD. For subdiffusion ($H<1/2$) we find that $S(f,T)\sim A/f^{2H+1}$ with random-amplitude $A$. In sharp contrast, for superdiffusion $(H>1/2)$ $S(f,T)\sim BT^{2H-1}/f^2$ with random amplitude $B$. Remarkably, for $H>1/2$ the PSD exhibits the same frequency-dependence as Brownian motion, a deceptive property that may lead to false conclusions when interpreting experimental data. Notably, for $H>1/2$ the PSD is ageing and is dependent on $T$. Our predictions for both sub- and superdiffusion are confirmed by experiments in live cells and in agarose hydrogels, and by extensive simulations.

description: We study the quantum dynamics of fractional excitations in quantum spin ice. We focus on the density of states in the two-monopole sector, $ρ(ω)$, as this can be connected to the wavevector-integrated dynamical structure factor accessible in neutron scattering experiments. We find that $ρ(ω)$ exhibits a strikingly characteristic singular and asymmetric structure which provides a useful fingerprint for comparison to experiment. $ρ(ω)$ obtained from exact diagonalisation of a finite cluster agrees well with that from the analytical solution of a hopping problem on a Husimi cactus representing configuration space, but not with the corresponding result on a face-centred cubic lattice, on which the monopoles move in real space. The main difference between the latter two lies in the inclusion of the emergent gauge field degrees of freedom under which the monopoles are charged. This underlines the importance of treating both sets of degrees of freedom together, and presents a novel instance of dimensional transmutation.

description: This paper seeks to close the gap between the models of man used by economists and sociologists. The problem of the evolution of social norms is identified with the equilibrium selection problem in game theory. Adopting such a view requires that sociologists be ready to regard social norms as being endogenously determined, and for economists to abandon the literature on refinements of Nash equilibrium in favor of an evolutionary approach. Even in simple situations like the Ultimatum Game, the consequences can be striking.
Ubiquitin Conformational Dynamics and Hydration Shell Dynamics by Solid State NMR

description: Knowledge of protein dynamics is essential for understanding the enzyme catalysis, protein molecular recognition, and the entropy changes during protein-ligand binding. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is an ideal biophysical experimental tool for the study of protein dynamics because it can be used to study motions with timescales from  picoseconds to seconds. NMR studies of solids are different to those in liquids in that the spatial anisotropy of magnetic interactions such as quadrupolar couplings, dipolar couplings, and chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) are retained. The amplitude of motion in the timescale faster than microseconds can be quantified by the time averaged anisotropic interactions, so solid state NMR has many of unique opportunities to study dynamics. Studies of protein dynamics using deuterium spectra are powerful because the deuterium quadrupolar coupling is larger than any other anisotropic interactions and dominates the deuterium spectra. However, large quadrupolar interactions also introduce complexity for site-resolved dynamics experiments such as 2H-13C CP correlation experiments during magic angle spinning. In this work, we developed a method to quantify protein site-specific amplitude of motions (order parameters) using 2H-13C CP correlation experiments and tested this method on the amino acid model compounds and ubiquitin microcrystalline samples. The ubiquitin backbone order parameters we obtained are very similar to the previously reported order parameters except that we cannot obtain the order parameter information for some dynamical loop regions and the N-terminal part of the á helix. We also solved the ubiquitin crystal structure at the crystallization condition similar to the SSNMR sample condition. These structures allow us to correlate SSNMR parameters with the high resolution X-ray structure and will be of benefit to further method development in SSNMR field. We also found an interesting ubiquitin conformational switch. This conformational switch region shows inherent plasticity and probably plays a role when ubiquitin binds with deubiquinating enzymes. In the last part of the work, we study the dynamical properties of ubiquitin's hydration shell in frozen solution using deuterium spectra. We also study the effect of some Hofmister ions on the dynamical properties of ubiquitin's hydration water and on bulk ice.

description: More than just marks of subversion, uncommon visual disturbances, or an academic anomaly, tattoos are increasingly common in the United States. Capitalizing on the social change surrounding tattoos, this research project addresses one major concern: do tattoos impact the lived experience of white collar workers in the United States. In order to accomplish this, the focus is on whether tattoos are stigmatized in the American white collar workplace and what impact this has on identity and social performance. Additionally, the project examines how individual and organizational understandings of popular culture and art inform perspectives on tattoos and the lived experience.Utilizing a mixed methods approach, this project argues for an interdisciplinary theoretical approach synergistically utilizing figurational sociology and symbolic anthropology. In order to address the specific population of white collar workers, the theoretical orientation additionally draws upon neo-institutionalism. This research project also contributes to theoretical discussions in numerous areas of academic interest including body modifications, identity, stigma, workplaces, and popular culture.The study posits that sociocultural understandings of tattoos in the United States are informed by the abstract notion of freedom. As tattoos are highly symbolic and impact identity, freedom plays a critical role in addressing issues of the authentic self and impression management in the white collar workplace. The highly interdependent nature of tattooing informs the conversation on identity and stigma in the white collar workplace, while affording the opportunity to address tattoo art and popular culture. Tattoos help define social groups which results in greater workplace fragmentation and reinforces stigma. Tattoo visual disruption in the workplace impacts social sanctioning, performance, and power, encouraging stigma. Individual perceptions of tattoos in the workplace are heavily influenced by organizations and impact other social realms. Finally, the project concludes with organizational applications of this data as well as suggestions for future research.
