Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: The purpose of this project is to design and develop a low-cost, portable, and autonomous sand painting robot. The robot uses 6 different colours in its sand painting and covers an area up to 6m x 6m fully with 1cm x 1cm sand pixels. It can be assumed that the surface the robot works on is dry, even, and level, and that there is no wind present. A simple computer interface to the robot is provided which allows the user to input the physical dimensions of the room the robot is allotted, the image the robot is to paint, and other information to direct the robot. The robot operates in an x-y plane in a printer-like fashion, with stepper motors driving omni-wheels. The sand deposition system is gravity-fed, with servo motors controlling the sand flow out of 6 sand canisters. Two laser distance meters are used to track the position and alignment of the robot. The system would consist of wireless communication via Xbee between the robot and a laptop. The laptop serves as a control centre for directing the robot’s movement, sand dispensing, refilling, etc. After testing, the robot has met requirements for consistency of amount of sand delivered in sand shots, movement precision between pixels, and the time required for the robot to distribute sand per pixel. However, at the current stage of development, not all components of the robot are fully finished. Sand level measurement using IR sensors have not been implemented and the integration of position tracking via laser distance meter in the operation of the robot has yet to be completed. While the GeckoDrive boards currently used to control the stepper motors are functional, due to their expense, an alternative driver board, A4983 Pololu stepper motor driver carrier, would later replace the GeckoDrive board instead. The team is committed to further work past the January, with the goal of completing all required aspects of the robot by March 8, 2012.

description: This paper introduces ScarceGAN which focuses on identification of extremely rare or scarce samples from multi-dimensional longitudinal telemetry data with small and weak label prior. We specifically address: (i) severe scarcity in positive class, stemming from both underlying organic skew in the data, as well as extremely limited labels; (ii) multi-class nature of the negative samples, with uneven density distributions and partially overlapping feature distributions; and (iii) massively unlabelled data leading to tiny and weak prior on both positive and negative classes, and possibility of unseen or unknown behavior in the unlabelled set, especially in the negative class. Although related to PU learning problems, we contend that knowledge (or lack of it) on the negative class can be leveraged to learn the compliment of it (i.e., the positive class) better in a semi-supervised manner. To this effect, ScarceGAN re-formulates semi-supervised GAN by accommodating weakly labelled multi-class negative samples and the available positive samples. It relaxes the supervised discriminator's constraint on exact differentiation between negative samples by introducing a 'leeway' term for samples with noisy prior. We propose modifications to the cost objectives of discriminator, in supervised and unsupervised path as well as that of the generator. For identifying risky players in skill gaming, this formulation in whole gives us a recall of over 85% (~60% jump over vanilla semi-supervised GAN) on our scarce class with very minimal verbosity in the unknown space. Further ScarceGAN outperforms the recall benchmarks established by recent GAN based specialized models for the positive imbalanced class identification and establishes a new benchmark in identifying one of rare attack classes (0.09%) in the intrusion dataset from the KDDCUP99 challenge.

description: Heavy neutral leptons (HNLs), depending on their mass and mixing, can be efficiently produced in meson decays from the target or absorber in short- to medium-baseline accelerator neutrino experiments, leaving detectable signals through their decays inside the neutrino detectors. We show that the currently running ICARUS experiment at Fermilab can reconstruct the HNL mass and explore new HNL parameter space in the mass range of 70-190 MeV. The mass reconstruction is enabled by two ingredients: (i) simple two-body kinematics of HNL production from stopped kaon decays at the NuMI absorber, followed by HNL decay into a charged-lepton pair and neutrino at the detector, and (ii) high resolution of Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) detectors in reconstructing final state particles. Our mass reconstruction method is robust under realistic energy resolution and angular smearing of the charged leptons, and is applicable to any LArTPC detector. We also discuss the synergy between ICARUS and future facilities like DUNE near detector and PIP-II beam dump in probing the HNL parameter space.

The present status and prospects of forestry carbon sequestration in China
Creators: name: Wang, Xukun
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Climate change is a threat to the Earth’s ecological environment, deeply impacting on the politics, economics and societies of all countries. After decades of discussion, some basic consensuses have been reached. Most of countries are committed to tackling climate change. Forestry carbon sequestration offers a solution for many of these countries. China has been richly endowed with land and has huge potential to develop a forestry carbon sequestration industry. This paper provides a review of China’s primary policies in regulating forestry carbon projects and its carbon market, the current status of Chinese forestry carbon projects, and China’s position in global carbon negotiations. This paper also provides a summary of key issues to establishing forestry carbon projects in China, which include common problems, like forest tenure system and baseline determination. Possible solutions are given, but further research and pilot projects are still necessary. Although forestry carbon sequestration is in its starting stage in China, China has endeavored to improve its mechanisms and has the potential of a brilliant future in this industry.

description: Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are laboratories for stellar evolution, strong gravity, and ultra-dense matter. Although MSPs are thought to originate in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), approximately 27% lack a binary companion, and others are found in systems with large orbital eccentricities. Understanding how these systems form may provide insight into the internal properties of neutron stars (NSs).
 We studied the formation of a twin compact star through rapid first-order phase transitions in NS cores due to mass accretion in LMXBs. We investigated whether this mechanism, possibly coupled with secondary kick effects such as neutrino or electromagnetic rocket effects, leaves an observable long-lasting imprint on the orbit.
 We simulated mass accretion in LMXBs consisting of a NS and a low-mass main-sequence companion and followed the evolution of the NS mass, radius, and spin until a strong phase transition is triggered. For the NS structure, we assumed a multi-polytrope equation of state that allows for a sharp phase transition from hadronic to quark matter and satisfies observational constraints.
 We find that in compact binaries with relatively short pre-Roche lobe overflow orbital periods, an accretion-induced phase transition can occur during the LMXB phase. In contrast, in systems with wider orbits, this transition can take place during the spin-down phase, forming an eccentric binary MSP. If the transition is accompanied by a secondary kick, then the binary is likely to be disrupted, forming an isolated MSP or re-configured into an ultra-wide orbit.
 Our findings suggest that accretion in LMXBs provides a viable path for forming twin compact stars, potentially leaving an observable imprint on the orbit. The eccentricity distribution of binary MSPs with long orbital periods (> 50 d) could provide constraints on first-order phase transitions in dense nuclear matter.

description: One quarter of married, fertile‐age women in Sub‐Saharan Africa report not wanting a pregnancy and yet do not use contraceptives. To study this issue, we collect detailed data on women’s subjective probabilistic beliefs and estimate a structural model of contraceptive choices. Our results indicate that costly interventions like eliminating supply constraints would only modestly increase contraceptive use. Alternatively, increasing partners’ approval of methods, aligning partners’ fertility preferences with women’s beliefs about pregnancy risk absent contraception have the potential to increase use considerably. Results from a before/after experiment testing this last finding are highly consistent with the structural estimates.

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Arts administration -- Theses.

description: Women have historically had relationships with dance organizations as committed audience members.  With the increase in women’s economic power that has come with social change over the past century, women have the capacity to donate monetarily to dance organizations.  Recent research on women’s motivations for giving shows fundraising professionals how best to solicit donations from female donors.  However, despite the existing research and the capacity and inclination of women to give, dance organizations do not effectively pursue female donors.
This paper explores the potential application of research on women and philanthropy to the field of dance development.  Using dance-specific examples, the paper suggests evidence-based methods for organizations to effectively cultivate and solicit female donors.
Harmonograph

description: The objective of the project was to design and build an electro-mechanical harmonograph for the project sponsor, Mr. Andres Wanner. The sponsor is a lecturer at the School of Arts and Technology at the Simon Fraser University. A harmonograph is an artistic drawing device capable of plotting a specific set of mathematical figures known as Lissajous curves on a two dimensional drawing surface. The following set of requirements for the device was requested by the sponsor at the start of the project: I. The device should be capable of drawing Lissajous curves of 40 cm in size on a sheet of paper with a variety of pens/pencils. II. Has custom tunable x-y ratio that can be set during operation of the device so that various types of drawings may be produced. III. Produces drawings through simple harmonic motion only (as opposed to computer-controlled plotting). IV. Is precise enough that lines drawn from multiple passes of the device trace right over each other. V. Is capable of producing drawings with some imperfections through mechanical noise for artistic effect. The final version of the harmonograph was designed and built to the above specifications. The completed device uses a dual stage hypo-cycloid drive to produce simple harmonic motion in two orthogonal axes with amplitudes of 10 cm. This drive is then coupled to a 4:1 pantograph mechanism to magnify the drawings to 40 cm. The pantograph drives a universal pen holder to produce the required drawings over a sheet of paper placed at the side of the device. The hypo-cycloid motion is produced using two bipolar stepper motors, each driven at a specific speed by a “Geckodrive” stepper motor controller. The stepping pulses required by the motor controllers are provided by an Arduino Mega microcontroller. The x-y ratio of the device is controlled through a user interface via push buttons on an Arduino LCD shield. The mechanical imperfections inherent to the machining processes deliver a slightly noisy drawing as initially requested by the sponsor. The following components were handed over to the sponsor at the end of the project: I. Two-stage hypocycloid drive II. Pantograph mechanism III. Control electronics

di sicurezza alimentare. Il D.Lgs. n°193 del 6 novembre 2007 oltre ad aver stabilito le sanzioni amministrative per le violazioni al Reg. CE n° 852 e 853 del 2004 ha abrogato molte normative nazionali tra cui quelle che regolavano il trasporto dei prodotti alimentari. Altre norme che regolano il trasporto di prodotti alimentari non risultano ad oggi abrogate ma risultano, in molti casi, in contrasto con i citati regolamenti.

description: Genomic selection, an effective breeding tool used widely in plants and animals for improving low-heritability traits, has only recently been applied to forages. We explored the feasibility of implementing genomic selection in white clover (Trifolium repens L.), a key forage legume which has shown limited genetic improvement in dry matter yield (DMY) and persistence traits. We used data from a training population comprising 200 half-sibling (HS) families evaluated in a cattle-grazed field trial across three years and two locations. Combining phenotype and genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) data, we assessed different two-stage genomic prediction models, including KGD-GBLUP developed for low-depth GBS data, on DMY, growth score, leaf size and stolon traits. Predictive abilities were similar among the models, ranging from −0.17 to 0.44 across traits, and remained stable for most traits when reducing model input to 100–120 HS families and 5500 markers, suggesting genomic selection is viable with fewer resources. Incorporating a correlated trait with a primary trait in multi-trait prediction models increased predictive ability by 28–124%. Deterministic modelling showed integrating among-HS-family phenotypic selection and within-family genomic selection at different selection pressures estimated up to 89% DMY genetic gain compared to phenotypic selection alone, despite a modest predictive ability of 0.3. This study demonstrates the potential benefits of combining genomic and phenotypic selection to boost genetic gains in white clover. Using cost-effective GBS paired with a prediction model optimized for low read-depth data, the approach can achieve prediction accuracies comparable to traditional models, providing a viable path for implementing genomic selection in white clover.

description: Earth’s Field NMR involves very sensitive magnetic fields that must be held static for experiments to succeed. As part of a revamping of the introductory physics curriculum, UBC Physics plans to outfit a lab with a number of small EFNMR scanners that can be operated by students. Preliminary experiments conducted in the planned space have shown that there is significant DC field interference, most likely produced by the nearby elevators. Due to the low frequency of the interference, and the dynamics of elevator use throughout the day, an active field stabilization system is required if the EFNMR labs are to proceed as scheduled. The effort to realize a field stabilization system as outlined above is being funded by UBC Physics, with cooperation from the Engineering Physics Project Lab. Success will mean not only that the new EFNMR labs can proceed in the coming 2013 school term, but will also represent a unique solution to the problem of shielding a large volume of space from DC interference. One can find applications for such results anywhere requiring the simultaneous operation of many NMR scanners in close quarters. The details of the designed system may, therefore, be of enough merit to warrant a scientific publication detailing the process so that others may benefit from the work.

description: Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt am Beispiel der betriebswirtschaftlichen Organisationslehre und der Wirtschaftsinformatik auf, dass die Beschränkung auf tradierte disziplinspezifische Perspektiven nicht geeignet ist, den vielschichtigen Auswirkungen der digitalen Transformation gerecht zu werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund werden die Potentiale einer engen, transdisziplinären Zusammenarbeit dargestellt. Dazu werden zunächst die für eine solche Zusammenarbeit erforderlichen Gemeinsamkeiten herausgearbeitet. Dabei wird insbesondere die Rolle der Sprache gewürdigt. Sie ist sie sowohl zur Untersuchung von Handlungssystemen als auch zur Gestaltung und Nutzung von Informationssystemen von zentraler Bedeutung, entfaltet dabei aber durchaus ambivalente Wirkungen. Darauf aufbauend werden grundlegende Zielkonflikte, etwa zwischen Standardisierung und Fortschritt oder zwischen loser und enger Kopplung betrachtet und Ansätze zur ihrer Entschärfung aufgezeigt. Daneben geht der Beitrag auf die Auswirkungen ein, die induktive Verfahren der „Künstlichen Intelligenz“ auf das Handeln in Unternehmen einerseits, auf die wissenschaftliche Forschung andererseits erwarten lassen – und welche wissenschafts-theoretischen Herausforderungen damit verbunden sind. Auch wenn vorwiegend auf spezifische Forschungsfragen der Organisationslehre und der Wirtschaftsinformatik fokussiert wird, sollte die Untersuchung auch für andere Teildisziplinen der Betriebswirtschaftslehre bedeutsam sein.

description: In senso generico, con il termine “frode alimentare” si indica la produzione, detenzione, commercio, vendita o somministrazione di alimenti non conformi alle leggi vigenti. Spesso si usano indistintamente i termini di frode e truffa per definire un  comportamento illecito che si sostanzia in una parte lesa, che è stata ingannata, raggirata subendo un danno economico o un danno alla persona. In realtà non sono sinonimi.

description: I analyze the relationship between state‐level economic shocks and suicides using historical US gold discoveries (1840‐1860) as a large unexpected economic shock. Gold discoveries were an unexpected and large economic shock of up to 3.5% of GDP. They provide as good as random variation to the local economy, that I use to estimate the effect of economic changes on suicides. Comprehensive mortality data by state and year does not exist for the US for 1840 to 1860. I thus make use of web scraped data from a newspaper archive and use suicide mentions per 100,000 pages as a proxy for suicides. Results show that overall gold discoveries are linked with a clear reduction in newspaper suicide mentions. The results indicate that an economic shock changes the suicide rate by one for every $136,659 to $251,145. This is estimate implies a higher cost‐effectiveness than previous research but is still seven to fourteen times the size of modern, cost‐effective suicide prevention method.

Stable laser sources for the formation of ultracold molecules

description: Atomic molecular and optical physicists require highly stable laser sources to cool molecules to ultracold temperatures. Last year, for our APSC 459 project we designed and characterized an interference filter-stabilized external-cavity diode laser (ECDL). This year’s project was primarily focused on stabilizing this laser via a lock either to a second ECDL or to a 5S₁/₂- 5D₅/₂ two photon transition in rubidium. A variety of methods and experimental techniques were used to characterize the performance of a range of electrical and optical components, and to investigate key design parameters in order to achieve a stable lock. In locking two ECDL’s together, the two beams were coupled in order to generate a beatnote. The beatnote was then split and sent through a long or short fiber, then mixed and filtered such that an error signal generated from the phase difference was sent to the proportional and integral (PI) control system. This control system generated a slow and fast response, from which we could control and adjust the laser’s frequency. To lock to the 5S₁/₂- 5D₅/₂ two photon transition, we built an oven to house the cell and various optical components and heating elements, coupled to a photomultiplier tube. A beam was sent through the cell and oven, and reflected back such that the two beams were coupled within the cell to make the atoms fluoresce. A lock-in amplifier was used to generate an error signal from the detected florescence in order to control the laser’s frequency. For the two laser locking experiment we achieved a lock on the order of 300 kHz. There are a few more techniques that we can investigate to tighten this lock, including switching to photodetector with less noise and a self-heterodyne beatnote measurement with a 100 km optical fibre and a 1550 nm laser diode. The rubidium locking technique was successful at achieving a lock on the order of 1.8 MHz. This lock can be reduced by addressing some of the broadening mechanisms responsible for widening the transition peaks of rubidium, as well as optimizing a few of our system parameters to produce an error signal with more gain.
Optimizing reaction and transport fluxes in temperature gradient-driven chemical reaction-diffusion systems

description: Temperature gradients represent energy sources that can be harvested to generate steady reaction or transport fluxes. Technological developments could lead to the transfer of free energy from heat sources and sinks to chemical systems for the purpose of extraction, thermal batteries, or nonequilibrium synthesis.
 We present a theoretical study of 1D chemical systems subjected to temperature gradients, for sustaining nonequilibrium chemical fluxes. A complete theoretical framework describes the behavior of the system induced by various temperature profiles. An exact mathematical derivation was established for a simple two-compartment model and was generalized to arbitrary reaction-diffusion systems based on numerical models. An experimental system was eventually scaled and tuned to optimize either nonequilibrium chemical transport or reaction.
 The relevant parameters for this description were identified; they focused on the system symmetry for chemical reaction and transport. Nonequilibrium thermodynamic approaches lead to a description analogous to electric circuits. Temperature gradients lead to the onset of a steady chemical force, which maintains steady reaction-diffusion fluxes moderated by chemical resistance. The system activity was then assessed using the entropy production rate as a measure of its dissipated power.
 The chemical characteristics of the system can be tuned for general optimization of the nonequilibrium state or for the specific optimization of either transport or reaction processes. The shape of the temperature gradient can be tailored to precisely control the spatial localization of active processes, targeting either precise spatial localization or propagation over large areas. The resulting temperature-driven chemical system can in turn be used to drive secondary processes into either nonequilibrium reaction fluxes or concentration gradients.
