description: Extraction of adverse drug events from biomedical literature and other textual data is an important component to monitor drug-safety and this has attracted attention of many researchers in healthcare. Existing works are more pivoted around entity-relation extraction using bidirectional long short term memory networks (Bi-LSTM) which does not attain the best feature representations. In this paper, we introduce a question answering framework that exploits the robustness, masking and dynamic attention capabilities of RoBERTa by a technique of domain adaptation and attempt to overcome the aforementioned limitations. Our model outperforms the prior work by 9.53% F1-Score.
The meaning and experience of career as it is lived by women artists
Creators: name: Brooks, Geraldine Susan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Little has been written in the literature on women's career or identity development specifically addressing the experiences of women artists. Yet there is reason to believe that these women, by virtue of their gender and their career choice, may have a particular perspective on how career is understood and lived that differs from that of the majority of women and men who have chosen more traditional career paths. This qualitative study investigated the meaning and experience of career for eight women artists over age 40 from the visual, performing, and literary arts. The methods of inquiry and data analysis were based on a phenomenological approach. The researcher conducted three in-depth interviews with participants over a two-year period. Nine common themes, an account of what the term "career" meant to participants, and the fundamental structure-or common story-of the participants' experiences of career over their life span were drawn from the interview data. These nine themes are: (1) Sense of being an outsider; (2) Sense of validation through external recognition; (3) Sense of being obstructed; (4) Sense of being torn between the needs of self and others; (5) Sense of connection and belonging through art; (6) Sense of struggle to assume the identity of artist; (7) Sense of selfdetermination; (8) Sense of being a pioneer; and (9) Sense of harmony between self, art, and career. All of the participants indicated some degree of discomfort with the concept of career. They perceived their work as artists to be closely related to the sense of self and preferred to talk about their "lives as artists" and about "being artists," rather than about "having careers" as artists. The findings of this study contribute both to our understanding of how women artists conceptualize and experience their careers over the course of their lives and to our knowledge of how they develop their identities as artists within the context of their careers. These findings led to specific recommendations for research and practice in the area of women artists' career development.

description: We show that some of the Josephson couplings of junctions arranged to form an inhomogeneous network undergo a non-perturbative renormalization provided that the network's connectivity is pertinently chosen. As a result, the zero-voltage Josephson critical currents $I_c$ turn out to be enhanced along directions selected by the network's topology. This renormalization effect is possible only on graphs whose adjacency matrix admits an hidden spectrum (i.e. a set of localized states disappearing in the thermodynamic limit). We provide a theoretical and experimental study of this effect by comparing the superconducting behavior of a comb-shaped Josephson junction network and a linear chain made with the same junctions: we show that the Josephson critical currents of the junctions located on the comb's backbone are bigger than the ones of the junctions located on the chain. Our theoretical analysis, based on a discrete version of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation, leads to results which are in good quantitative agreement with experimental results.

Subjects: SECS-P/02 Politica economica

description: Over the past decades, leisure travel has become increasingly popular in older segments of the world population, as a consequence of global factors such as a rise in life expectancy, improved health conditions, a higher disposable income, and increased availability of discretionary time in retirement age. Consequently, researchers have become more interested
in studying the motivations for travel of seniors. A number of questions may be raised or have been addressed in the recent past: What are the main factors explaining the travelling choices of seniors? Are their travel motivations different from the ones of the younger population, which have been widely studied in the past? Are geographical differences in terms of
motivations comparable between different age groups? Why is senior tourism a topic of particular interest with regard to Asia? In order to answer such questions, in this paper we provide a review of the literature on the travel motivations of seniors. On the basis of 29 articles published on the topic, we provide a qualitative and meta-analytic assessment of past
findings, by investigating the dimensions of travel motivations most frequently employed in past seniors surveys. Finally, we discuss a research agenda for further analysis of senior travel motivations and for the integration of this branch of travel research within a wider framework.

description: This paper presents a new chaotic system having four attractors, including two fixed point attractors and two symmetrical chaotic strange attractors. Dynamical properties of the system, viz. sensitive dependence on initial conditions, Lyapunov spectrum, strangeness measure, attraction basin, including the class and size of it, existence of strange attractor, bifurcation analysis, multistability, electronic circuit design, and hardware implementation, are rigorously treated. Numerical computations are used to compute the basin of attraction and show that the system has a far-reaching composite basin of attraction. Such a basin of attraction is vital for engineering applications. Moreover, a circuit model of the system is realized using analog electronic components. A procedure is detailed for converting the system parameters into corresponding electronic component values such as the circuital resistances while ensuring the dynamic ranges are bounded. Besides, the system is used as the source of control inputs for independent navigation of a differential drive mobile robot, which is subject to the Pfaffian velocity constraint. Due to the properties of sensitivity on initial conditions and topological mixing, the robot's path becomes unpredictable and guaranteed to scan the workspace, respectively.

description: The method of Morse theory is used to analyze the distributions of unit charges interacting through a repulsive force and constrained to move on the surface of a sphere -- the Thomson problem. We find that, due to topological reasons, the system may organize itself in the form of pentagonal structures. This gives a qualitative account for the interesting ``pentagonal buttons'' discovered in recent numerical work.

First, we review the matrix formalism of classical polarization optics from a quantum information perspective. In this manner the passage from the Stokes-Jones-Mueller description of classical optical processes to the representation of one- and two-qubit quantum operations, becomes straightforward. Second, as a practical application of our classical-\emph{vs}-quantum formalism, we show how two-qubit maximally entangled mixed states (MEMS), can be generated by using polarization and spatial modes of photons generated via spontaneous parametric down conversion.

description: The aim of the present thesis is the study of the right to digital oblivion or right to be forgotten (droit à l'oubli numerique). In the first section, we refer to the rights from which the right to digital oblivion is derived and we examine the broader context in which it belongs. Then, we examine the various terms used in bibliography, in order to make the distinction from other rights with which it is often confused, and to find its true meaning. We further refer to the current technological means we have in our disposal and examine if they are sufficient in order to effectively implement the right to digital oblivion, as well as to the solutions that are proposed in bibliography to tackle this issue. Furthermore, we analyze the existing international legal framework in which the right to digital oblivion could be enshrined, making special reference to specific national legislation and jurisprudence. Finally, we examine the conflict of the right to digital oblivion with other rights, freedoms and general interests and we suggest some criteria that can be found in the relevant jurisprudence and could be proven useful in a potential balance.

description: The Von-Neumann bottleneck is a clear limitation for data-intensive applications, bringing in-memory computing (IMC) solutions to the fore. Since large data sets are usually stored in nonvolatile memory (NVM), various solutions have been proposed based on emerging memories, such as OxRAM, that rely mainly on area hungry, one transistor (1T) one OxRAM (1R) bit-cell. To tackle this area issue, while keeping the programming control provided by 1T1R bit-cell, we propose to combine gate-all-around stacked junctionless nanowires (1JL) and OxRAM (1R) technology to create a 3-D memory pillar with ultrahigh density. Nanowire junctionless transistors have been fabricated, characterized, and simulated to define current conditions for the whole pillar. Finally, based on Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE) simulations, we demonstrated successfully scouting logic operations up to three-pillar layers, with one operand per layer.

description: We give conditions on the strain-energy function of nonlinear anisotropic hyperelastic materials that ensure compatibility with the classical linear theories of anisotropic elasticity. We uncover the limitations associated with the volumetric deviatoric separation of the strain energy used, for example, in many Finite Element (FE) codes in that it does not fully represent the behavior of anisotropic materials in the linear regime. This limitation has important consequences. We show that, in the small deformation regime, a FE code based on the volumetric-deviatoric separation assumption predicts that a sphere made of a compressible anisotropic material deforms into another sphere under hydrostatic pressure loading, instead of the expected ellipsoid. For finite deformations, the commonly adopted assumption that fibres cannot support compression is incorrectly implemented in current FE codes and leads to the unphysical result that under hydrostatic tension a sphere of compressible anisotropic material deforms into a larger sphere.

description: Cuando se realiza un acercamiento al “trabajo infantil” y al profundizar sobre aquellas llamadas “peores formas”, surgen una serie de cuestionamientos. Uno de ellos es ¿Qué sucede con aquellas labores que por sus características y condiciones no pueden ser catalogadas como “trabajo infantil” o “peores formas”? Estas labores no se definen claramente y por lo tanto no hay mayor profundidad en el debate sobre el tema. En la relación de trabajo y educación surge este capítulo sobre el trabajo artesanal en el que participan niños, niñas y adolescentes que promueve la maduración del sistema nervioso y por ende estimula el desarrollo de procesos psicológicos a nivel cognitivo y emocional.
description: When approaching the issue of "child labor" and delving into what are called "the worst forms," a series of questions arise. One of them is: What happens with those forms of work that, due to their characteristics and conditions, cannot be classified as "child labor" or as the “worst forms”? These types of work are not clearly defined, and therefore, there is a lack of depth in the debate on the reality. In the relationship between work and education, this chapter emerges on artisanal work in which children and adolescents participate, promoting the maturation of the nervous system and thus stimulating the development of psychological processes at both cognitive and emotional levels.

description: The fundamental properties of detached eclipsing binary stars can be measured very accurately, which could make them important objects for constraining the treatment of convection in theoretical stellar models. However, only four or five pieces of information can be found for the average system, which is not enough. We discuss studies of more interesting and useful objects: eclipsing binaries in clusters and eclipsing binaries with pulsating components.

description: Bilateral trade flows traditionally have been analysed by means of the spatial interaction gravity
model. Still, (auto)correlation of trade flows has only recently received attention in the
literature. This paper takes up this thread of emerging literature, and shows that spatial filtering
(SF) techniques can take into account the autocorrelation in trade flows. Furthermore, we show
that the use of origin and destination specific spatial filters goes a long way in correcting for
omitted variable bias in an otherwise standard empirical gravity equation. For a cross-section
of bilateral trade flows, we compare an SF approach to two benchmark specifications that are
consistent with theoretically derived gravity. The results are relevant for a number of reasons.
First, we correct for autocorrelation in the residuals. Second, we suggest that the empirical
gravity equation can still be considered in applied work, despite the theoretical arguments for
its misspecification due to omitted multilateral resistance terms. Third, if we include SF
variables, we can still resort to any desired estimator, such as OLS, Poisson or negative binomial
regression. Finally, interpreting endogeneity bias as autocorrelation in regressor variables and
residuals allows for a more general specification of the gravity equation than the relatively
restricted theoretical gravity equation. In particular, we can include additional country-specific
push and pull variables, besides GDP (e.g., land area, landlockedness, and per capita GDP). A
final analysis provides autocorrelation diagnostics according to different candidate indicators.

description: We generalize the previously studied cosmological solutions in D-dimensional gravity with an antisymmetric (p+2)-form to the case when the spatial part of the metric is Ricci-flat rather than flat. These generalized solutions are characterized by a parallel self-dual or anti-self-dual charge density form Q of rank 2m and satisfy the condition Q^2 >0. As with the previous flat-space case, these electric, S-brane solutions only exist when D=4m+1 = 5, 9, 13, ... and p= 2m -1 = 1, 3, 5, .... We further generalize these solutions by adding Ricci-flat factor-spaces which are not covered by branes.

description: The purpose of this study was to determine whether persons with spinal cord injury who participate in an ambulation training program, using electrical stimulation, experience changes in the psychological variables of physical self-concept, depression, self-efficacy and mood states. Participants were 12 men and 3 women of mean age 28.4 (SD=6.6) and mean duration of injury 4.03 years (SD=3.14) with spinal cord injury between T4 and T11 . Treatment consisted of ambulation training 3 times weekly for 12 weeks. Prior to the first session participants were assessed on the above measures using the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Self-Efficacy Scale (SES) and the Profile of Mood States (POMS). They were reassessed at posttreatment. Also at posttreatment participants were interviewed to document their subjective reactions to the training program. Repeated measures analysis of variance indicated that changes on the TSCS and the BDI occurred in the expected direction and the changes were statistically significant. The change on the POMS was not statistically significant. Unexpectedly scores on the SES changed opposite to the expected direction and the change was statistically significant. Content analysis was performed on the interview data and responses occurring three times of greater were reported. The results from both the objective and the subjective data are discussed as are the implications for future research and practice.

description: Yang--Baxter maps (YB maps) are set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang--Baxter equation. For a set $X=Ω\times V$, where $V$ is a vector space and $Ω$ is regarded as a space of parameters, a linear parametric YB map is a YB map $Y\colon X\times X\to X\times X$ such that $Y$ is linear with respect to $V$ and one has $πY=π$ for the projection $π\colon X\times X\toΩ\timesΩ$. These conditions are equivalent to certain nonlinear algebraic relations for the components of $Y$. Such a map $Y$ may be nonlinear with respect to parameters from $Ω$. We present general results on such maps, including clarification of the structure of the algebraic relations that define them and several transformations which allow one to obtain new such maps from known ones. Also, methods for constructing such maps are described. In particular, developing an idea from [Konstantinou-Rizos S and Mikhailov A V 2013 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 46 425201], we demonstrate how to obtain linear parametric YB maps from nonlinear Darboux transformations of some Lax operators using linear approximations of matrix refactorisation problems corresponding to Darboux matrices. New linear parametric YB maps with nonlinear dependence on parameters are presented.

Cloud-based visualization of value-added model annotations using Jmol

Creators: name: Hanson, Robert
Publisher: name: F1000Research

description: Recent advances in cloud-based services now allow the real-time merging of 3D structural models of proteins and nucleic acids from wwPDB with calculational "annotations" — model validation information for deposited structures, secondary structure analysis for RNA and DNA, sequence alignment information for proteins. This poster presents recent developments in Jmol carried out in collaboration with the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) and others that change the meaning of "visualization" with respect to biomolecules, extending such visualization in ways that have not been possible previously.

In collaboration with the European Bioinformatics Institute, PDBe, and the Research Consortium for Structural Biology (RCSB), we designed a method of accessing the validation data for all deposited PDB structures. Our design goals included:

a) easy retrieval of structure-based annotation information,
b) immediate access to visualization of that information, and
c) utilization of the emerging value-added cloud resources.

Structural annotations, particularly when made easy to access, can significantly enhance molecular data. By associating these annotations with a program such as Jmol, which can load and visualize them easily, additional meaning can be derived, and valuable lessons can be learned about the meaning of a “biomolecular model” and its limitations.

Material parameters such as the single ion anisotropies of the Mo- and Nd- moments and exchange coupling constants among the Mo-Mo, Mo-Nd and Nd-Nd moments, have been determined to reproduce various kinds of experimental data taken as a function of H and T. For example, the neutron Bragg intensities, magnetization curves and the magnetic specific heats have been reproduced by the common parameters. By using the magnetic structure reproduced by these parameters, the spin chirality (chi) of Mo spins or the fictitious magnetic flux Phi proportional to chi has been calculated as a function of H and T by using equation chi=, where the bracket means the statistical average. (Note that we do not use the equation chi=x, because the local nature of the chirality should be correctly considered.) Comparing the calculated results with the observed rhoH, we can conclude that the unusual behavior of rH cannot be understood consistently only by the chirality mechanism.

description: Αντικείμενο της παρούσης διπλωματικής εργασίας είναι η αποτύπωση της δόμησης του πολιτικού στοιχείου, σύμφωνα με το Φλωρεντινό ιστορικό και φιλόσοφο Νικολό Μακιαβέλι. Βασικό άξονα μελέτης για την εξυπηρέτηση του παραπάνω σκοπού, αποτέλεσε η δουλειά και το έργο του Μακιαβέλι με έμφαση το βιβλίο του Ο Ηγεμόνας. Στην πρώτη ενότητα επιχειρείται μία θεωρητική προσέγγιση των βασικών εννοιών και θεωριών που σχετίζονται με την πολιτική φιλοσοφία. Αναλυτικότερα, γίνεται μία σύντομη αναφορά στην φιλοσοφία γενικότερα και στη συνέχεια η ανάλυση επικεντρώνεται στην πολιτική φιλοσοφία, τη συσχέτισή της με την πολιτική επιστήμη και τη σχέση της πολιτικής με την ηθική. Στη συνέχεια, μελετώνται και αναλύονται οι κυριότερες έννοιες οι οποίες απασχόλησαν τον Μακιαβέλι στο μεγαλύτερο μέρος του έργου του και συγκεκριμένα οι έννοιες της εξουσίας, της ελευθερίας και της δημοκρατίας. Στην τρίτη και τέταρτη ενότητα, παραθέτονται οι βασικές απόψεις του φιλοσόφου σχετικά με την πολιτική και τον τρόπο που αυτή πρέπει να διεξάγεται, γίνεται αναφορά στη σχέση της πολιτικής με την ηθική, αναλύονται οι «μακιαβέλειες» έννοιες όπως η κρατική σκοπιμότητα και η αναγκαιότητα και τέλος παρουσιάζεται η θέση του σχετικά με τον πόλεμο και την ειρήνη. Στην τελευταία ενότητα της διπλωματικής εργασίας επιλέχτηκε αντί επιλόγου να αποδοθεί με όσο το δυνατόν μεγαλύτερη ακρίβεια η έννοια της έκφρασης ο σκοπός αγιάζει τα μέσα.
description: The main object of the present thesis is the presentation of the establishment of the political element, according to the Florentine history and philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli. The study based on the work of Machiavelli emphasizing his book The Prince. The first section attempts a theoretical approach of the basic concepts and theories related to political philosophy. More specifically, there is a brief reference to philosophy in general and then the analysis focuses on political philosophy, its correlation with political science and its relationship with politics and ethics. Then, are being studied and analyzed the main concepts that concern Machiavelli in most of his work, namely the concepts of power, freedom and democracy. The third and fourth section lists the basic ideas of the philosopher on policy and how this should be carried out, refers to the relationship between politics and ethics, analyzes the concepts of Machiavelli such as public expediency and necessity and finally shows his thoughts about war and peace. In the last section of this thesis was chosen instead of an epilogue to be attributed with the greatest possible precision the meaning of the expression the end justifies the means.
Letter to the editor. NAA and JFK: Can revisionism take us home?

description: Occasionally during the course of the human learning experience we are faced with an anomaly. An aberration of sorts, which try as we might, defies appropriate classification. The recent paper by Spiegelman et al.--Chemical and forensic analysis of JFK assassination bullet lots: Is a second shooter possible?--is one such aberration. It is riddled with both misconceptions and errors of fact. Purporting to cast doubt on the NAA (neutron activation analysis) work conducted by Dr. Vincent Guinn in the investigation of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, it fails miserably. The paper offers two central conclusions, one which is demonstrably false, and the other which is specious. The authors opine; ``If the assassination fragments are derived from three or more separate bullets, then a second assassin is likely, as the additional bullet would not be attributable to the main suspect, Mr. Oswald.'' This statement relating to the likelihood of a second assassin based on the premise of three or more separate bullets is demonstrably false. The available evidence indicates that Oswald fired three shots, one of which is believed to have missed. However, on the off chance that all three shots hit (even though there is absolutely no other supporting forensic evidence for such a notion) those three shots alone in no way would indicate then that ``a second assassin is likely.'' The authors' erroneous conclusion was achieved because they have either been misled (which I personally believe is the case) or they simply aren't familiar with the evidence.

description: The process of reheating the universe after hybrid inflation is extremely violent. It proceeds through the nucleation and subsequent collision of large concentrations of energy density in bubble-like structures, which generate a significant fraction of energy in the form of gravitational waves. We study the power spectrum of the stochastic background of gravitational waves produced at reheating after hybrid inflation. We find that the amplitude could be significant for high-scale models, although the typical frequencies are well beyond what could be reached by planned gravitational wave observatories like LIGO, LISA or BBO. On the other hand, low-scale models could still produce a detectable stochastic background at frequencies accesible to those detectors. The discovery of such a background would open a new window into the very early universe.

The effect on receiving preparation for probable post birth experiences on postpartum emotional distress in first time mothers
Creators: name: Armstrong, Barbara
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of receiving preparation for probable postpartum experiences on the emotional distress experienced by first time mothers. The study compared the distress during the postpartum period of mothers who received the preparation with that of mothers who did not. Distress was measured at between 1 and 2 months postpartum. Distress during the postpartum period was defined as an increase in depression and anxiety and a decrease in feelings of well being from pre- to post- birth. Depression was measured by the Beck Depression Inventory, anxiety by the A-State scale of the Spielberger State- Trait Anxiety Inventory and well being by the Bradburn Affect Balance Scale. Subjects were 32 first time mothers with little or no previous experience with babies, who were in a stable relationship with their partner, who had been engaged in work which they enjoyed prior to the pregnancy, and who would not be living in an extended family situation following the birth. All subjects attended childbirth preparation classes primarily aimed at preparing mothers for labour and childbirth. The experimental group also attended a 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 hour session in which they received preparation for their first months postpartum. The hypothesis was that subjects in the experimental group, having received the preparation, would show significantly less emotional distress postpartum than the subjects in the control group. Subjects in the experimental group also completed questionnaires in which they rated the preparation and the overall effectiveness of the session in preparing them for the first weeks at home with baby and commented upon the ways in which the session was helpful as well as made suggestions for improvement. No statistically significant differences were found on the measures of distress between the group which received the preparation and the group which did not. However, members of the experimental group who received the preparation rated the preparation session as having been of benefit in preparing them for the adjustments which they had to make during their first months postpartum. It was thus concluded ' that despite the lack of significant differences on the measures employed, this type of preparation may be beneficial for new mothers.

description: USDA, Economic Research Service data reveal a persistent, downward trend in U.S. per capita consumption of fluid cow’s milk. Using data collected between 2003 and 2018 through the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), we identify changes over time in the amounts of fluid cow’s milk consumed by children, teenagers, and adults as well as the amounts each age group drinks as a beverage, pours into cereal, and adds to other types of beverages like tea and coffee. Results reveal that U.S. consumers of all ages are drinking less milk and milk drinks. Children are also consuming less milk with cereal. These declines prevent individuals from consuming a diet more in line with Federal recommendations. They also appear to reflect a combination of demographic and generational changes in the U.S. population as well as changes in the competitiveness of fluid cow’s milk and cereal with other beverages and breakfast options.
Can all muscular load sharing patterns be regarded as optimal in some sense?

Subjects: subject: Tissues and Organs (q-bio.TO)

description: Muscles crossing a joint usually outnumber its degrees of freedom, which renders the motor system underdetermined. Typically, optimization laws are postulated to cope with this redundancy. A natural question then arises whether all muscular load sharing patterns can be regarded as results of optimization. To answer it, we propose a method of constructing an objective function whose minimization yields a given load sharing pattern. We give necessary conditions for this construction to be feasible and investigate its uniqueness. For linear load sharing patterns the Crowninshield and Brand objective function is reproduced, nonlinear ones require a more general formula.
