title: Quickbird Satellite Image for Small Area in the Jazira Region of Syria

description: Quickbird satellite captured this image data product on 25 August 2002. DigitalGlobe, a commercial supplier of high-resolution satellite imagery launched this satellite on 18 October 2001. QuickBird collects the highest resolution commercial imagery of Earth including panchromatic imagery at 60 to 70 centimetre resolution and multispectral imagery at 2.4- and 2.8-metre resolutions. Total cloud coverage percentage is 0 percent, providing 100 percent ground visibility. Image covers an area of 5 x 5 kilometres and is located approximately 30 kilometres east/southeast of al Qamishli, Syria. The small settlement of Choueira Bichriye can be seen on the image. This multi-spectral image has been primarily used as a test sample for research to locate and map archaeological sites (Tells) in this part of the Jazira region of Syria, as well as natural and anthropomorphic landscape features. This Quickbird image dataset was captured on 25 August 2002. It represents a multi-spectral image with 2.4 x 2.4 resolution. Total cloud coverage percentage is 0 percent, providing 100 percent ground visibility. Spatial Reference System of the Dataset: WGS84. Aerial or Satellite Imagery. This dataset was first accessioned in the EDINA ShareGeo Open repository on 2010-06-30 and migrated to Edinburgh DataShare on 2017-02-20.

title: Interview data from 'new norms and forms of development'

description: This data contains findings of the study on outsourcing of external development assistance in maternal and child health (MCH) in Malawi and Nepal. It outlines the institutional modalities and norms guiding the financing and delivery of MCH projects and programmes. First, our study of external development assistance reveals a messy assemblage of actors, institutional arrangements and activities informed by the norms: ‘value for money’ and ‘measurable results’. Second, we found that for development assistance to function effectively it is not just about the flow of financial resources to a project or a programme but also about networks and key personal and institutional relationships. Third, we found that there is increasing political pressure to show that the disbursement of resources are linked to the achievement of measurable results.

title: Listening test materials for "A study of speaker adaptation for DNN-based speech synthesis"

description: The dataset contains the testing stimuli and listeners' MUSHRA test responses for the Interspeech 2015 paper, "A study of speaker adaptation for DNN-based speech synthesis". In this paper, we conduct an experimental analysis of speaker adaptation for Deep Neural Network (DNN) based speech synthesis at different levels. In particular, we augment a low-dimensional speaker-specific vector with linguistic features as input to represent speaker identity, perform model adaptation to scale the hidden activation weights, and perform a feature space transformation at the output layer to modify generated acoustic features. We systematically analyse the performance of each individual adaptation technique and that of their combinations. Experimental results confirm the adaptability of the DNN, and listening tests demonstrate that the DNN can achieve significantly better adaptation performance than the hidden Markov model (HMM) baseline in terms of naturalness and speaker similarity.

title: Listening test materials for "Evaluating comprehension of natural and synthetic conversational speech"

description: Current speech synthesis methods typically operate on isolated sentences and lack convincing prosody when generating longer segments of speech. Similarly, prevailing TTS evaluation paradigms, such as intelligibility (transcription word error rate) or MOS, only score sentences in isolation, even though overall comprehension arguably is more important for speech-based communication. In an effort to develop more ecologically-relevant evaluation techniques that go beyond isolated sentences, we investigated comprehension of natural and synthetic speech dialogues. Specifically, we tested listener comprehension on long segments of spontaneous and engaging conversational speech (three 10-minute radio interviews of comedians). Interviews were reproduced either as natural speech, synthesised from carefully prepared transcripts, or synthesised using durations from forced-alignment against the natural speech, all in a balanced design. Comprehension was measured using multiple choice questions. A significant difference was measured between the comprehension/retention of natural speech (74% correct responses) and synthetic speech with forced-aligned durations (61% correct responses). However, no significant difference was observed between natural and regular synthetic speech (70% correct responses). Effective evaluation of comprehension remains elusive.

title: Disease Spread in Age Structured Populations with Maternal Age Effects

description: Fundamental ecological processes, such as extrinsic mortality, determine population age structure. This influences disease spread when individuals of different ages differ in susceptibility or when maternal age determines offspring susceptibility. We show that Daphnia magna offspring born to young mothers are more susceptible than those born to older mothers, and consider this alongside previous observations that susceptibility declines with age in this system. We used a susceptible- infected compartmental model to investigate how age-specific susceptibility and maternal age effects on offspring susceptibility interact with demographic factors affecting disease spread. Our results show a scenario where an increase in extrinsic mortality drives an increase in transmission potential. Thus, we identify a realistic context in which age effects and maternal effects produce conditions favouring disease transmission.

title: Alcohol Patient Discharge Scotland 2009

description: This dataset shows the number of patients discharged from hospital having been admitted for alcohol related problems in 2009. The data includes the number of discharges and the number of patients, the number of discharges being higher than the patient numbers as a patient may be discharged several times but is counted as an individual patient only once. Care must be taken when using the data as hospitals/authorities classify alcohol related admissions in different ways, the numbers are almost certainly an underestimate. This dataset was created from data held in the following report: http://www.alcoholinformation.isdscotland.org/alcohol_misuse/files/alcohol_stats_bulletin_2011.pdf (section 4.1) and then combined with population estimates from http://hdl.handle.net/10672/95 to calculate the rates.

title: Global Permafrost

description: The Permafrost Zonation Index (PZI) or a corresponding map color indicates, to what degree permafrost exists only in the most favorable conditions (yellow) or nearly everywhere (blue). These local conditions affecting permafrost occurrence will partly exhibit regional trends (e.g. mean snow cover characteristics or continentality), partly vary over typical distances on the order of several km (e.g. shaded or sun-exposed side of a mountain), and partly over tens to hundreds of meters (e.g. snow drift, vegetation, ground material). These conditions need to be assessed during interpretation, depending on the intended purpose of using the PZI map. This product is likely to be most valuable in remote regions where only sparse reliable information exists. More info available here: http://www.geo.uzh.ch/microsite/cryodata/pf_global/. The derivation of the dataset is described in this publication . In it, issues of uncertainty and heterogeneity are discussed in detail. These are especially important when using such data for validating other models. Updated statistics for global/national permafrost areas as well as plots detailing the nature of permafrost areas in terms of latitude, elevation, heterogeneity and terrain ruggedness are available and include an estimation of uncertainty.
