title: Methods to delineate membership in a 'core' community are inconsistent, rarely test the hypothesis of a 'core', and can mislead ecological analysis

description: The field of community ecology is evolving rapidly as researchers are able to tie functions of systems to variation in taxa. In inferring processes, functions, and causal taxa, common practice is to assume a ‘core’ community can be defined. The core refers to a group of taxa found across samples, and statistically, is the discretization or categorization of continuous data. Assuming thresholds in abundance exist, and that a core microbiome exists, has the potential to be misleading. Rather, the existence of a core set of taxa should be treated as a hypothesis with support from empirical observations. An additional challenge is that there is no standard set of criteria for core membership. Consequently, comparison across studies is often impossible. We considered four common methods for defining a core and applied them to 25 simulations that cover a range of plausible communities and two published microbial data sets. Next, we used hierarchical clustering and bivariate plots of mean taxon abundance and variance to evaluate each method. Assignment of taxa to the core varied substantially among methods. Across simulations and published data sets, hierarchical clustering of taxa based on their abundance and prevalence (variation) offered no support for a core set of taxa. The categorization of taxa into sets corresponding to a core community and other taxa has the potential to be misleading. Given that the concept of core communities received poor support from data, the concept is questionable and should not be used without testing its validity in any particular context.

title: Basic Quantum Magnetic Interaction Data

description: Paper involved 3 experiments. <br><br>All experiments involved similar magnets of dimensions 4.7cm X 2.1cm X 1cm. There are three experiments in total. Each experiment involved measuring the same lines with different interactions. <br><br>12 lines in total measured away from the base magnet. Each line is 8 cm long 0.5mm apart. This means 8 measurements are directly in front of the magnet, 2, half with magnet half out, on purpose. And 2, 0.5mm out. <br><br>All three experiment thus involved 960 seperate measurements, a most detail understanding of the magnet.<br><br>All Equations that are derived from the experiments are within the data spreadsheet.<br><b>Experiment 1 </b>was a base experiment. North face of base magnet was measured. Though not seeking confirmation, in this experiment just as in the paper "Magnetism: Insights from the Thomas Young Experiment", magnetism organizes itself into a wave. Near the face strongest at poles, 8 cm away, strongest in the middle. <br><br><b>Experiment 2</b> involved placing the second magnet which is of similar dimensions and type with the south face facing the base magnet at 90 - degrees and for practical reasons 1.5cm away from base magnet. Thus one was measuring a south north interaction. <br><br>One clearly see's the line of annihilation as the two opposing poles of the khumalon meet. Understanding their particles one sees the matter antimatter collision, which is the matter, which is the anti matter? <br><br>The equation for this interaction needs two concepts added. The determinant of interaction that includes angle of interaction, in this case 90 - degrees. This determinant of interaction lies between 0 and 1. As well as a concept known as a zerowa is introduced.<br><br><b>Experiment 3</b> involved turning the second magnet such that the north face faces the base magnet. One is measuring a north north interaction. <br><br>One can see there is more of the khumalons after 8 cm in this experiment than the other 2 experiments. This means the khumalons are not annihilating each other but bumping each other. <br><br>The determinant of interaction in this case is greater than 1. <br><br>Understanding that the khumalons organize themselves into a magnetic wave, and that they decrease in number rapidly, not all means that they decay fast, in jiffies of a second as in particle colliders, but, all the potential energy is the same, one can not argue the other way. Potential energy is what they are made of and gives them that classification as magnetic particles. If the kinetic energy is different and all are going at the speed of light, that means the frequency of khumalons not only varies greatly, but there is an acceleration principle that can be explained by Newton, if and only if language is translated into quantum understanding. One can be fancy and be new, but its already done, similarities are just too great as is explained in paper. <br>

title: Role of South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) in managing the interstate relations in South Asia

description: South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, also known as SAARC, is the only regional organization in South Asia that incorporates all eight countries as its members. As a regional institution, the evolution of SAARC is sometimes compared to the European Union (EU) and/or Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). With this, the role of SAARC sounds very important to South Asia, yet it is highly criticized for its success stories and its role in the region. Moreover, the cancellation of the 19th SAARC Summit further has criticized its existence in the region. The reason: the summit was boycotted by its 6 members (out of 8) claiming the violation of the principles of SAARC and strong abidance to their national priority and security. However, this is not the first time the SAARC summit was canceled. With reasons given as national security and national priority the most, the fault has been emphasized mostly in the historical tensions and conflicts that still lurk within the region. But what has been overlooked is the realization and importance of capacity being placed within SAARC and the strength of the institution determined by its principles and the Charter. With the potential yet to be harvested, there has been very limited reviews about the lack of institutional capacity of the institution itself, the fault being in the regime of the institution, rather than pointing to its capability. As the negotiations in SAARC also reflect the different characteristics of the countries, it becomes important to analyze the capacity of the institution to guide it through challenges and tackle them by identifying the opportunities. Concerning this, the study assumes that the strength of the institution lies in its components; its regime that is comprised of its structure, its principles and the rules and norms based on the very principle- all enshrined in the SAARC Charter. It is important to analyze this before determining the success of the institution. SAARC being an inter-governmental institution, the study takes a modern-day outlook along with the theoretical knowledge from Intergovernmentalism and its modified approaches to explain and analyze the working mechanism of the institution and its ambiguities at its system level.

title: Hydrogen production from alcohol steam reforming

description: Catalytic activity and coke reduction of Ni catalysts for ethanol steam reforming (ESR) can be enhanced by urea addition and support modification using partial doping of Gd into CeO2 framework and Ce into Al2O3 framework. Urea addition as a promoter enhances Ni dispersion from the self-explosion of NH4NO3 that formed during the catalyst preparation resulting in the increase of the catalyst activity for ESR. Ni catalyst over GDC, CeO2 framework partially doped with Gd2O3, was investigated for activity and coke formation in the laboratory and pilot scale. Ni/GDC exhibits the highest activity (2314 μmol/min) and the lowest coke formation (2.6 mg/gcat) at 700 °C compared to all of the prepared catalysts in the laboratory. The catalyst was molded and further investigated in 291 L pilot scale reactor at 800 °C which can produce H2 at the average rate of 20.40 L/min in continuous mode. Another support modification by partial doping of Ce into Al2O3 coupled with magnetic inducement was also developed and used as supports for Ni catalyst for ESR. This study discovered that the magnetic inducement with different pole arrangements applied during support preparation affect Ce composition and distribution in the Al2O3 framework. Ni/Ce-Al2O3 under magnetic inducement with the same pole arrangement exhibits the highest H2 production (2400 μmol/min) and lowest coke formation (2.8 mg/gcat) at all temperatures used in this study. The result shows that the combination of urea addition and using Ce-doped Al2O3 prepared under magnetic inducement as supports can provide a low cost modification for active Ni catalyst at low temperature with low coke formation.

title: Mobile sensors' patrol path planning for a border surveillance application

description: The border control becomes very challenging, when a limited number of border patrols is deployed in a large border region. To compensate for the limited number of border patrols, the border patrols may dynamically monitor different segments of a region; hence, providing a dynamic coverage. If the trespassers randomly move, the best strategy for the border patrols would be to move randomly. However, realistic trespassers typically plan their paths according to the environmental characteristics and past trespassing statistic of the region. They travel on their planned paths rather than travel randomly. A more intelligent trespasser would regularly adapt his traveling path in order to avoid being captured. To overcome the trespassers’ intelligent with adaptive behavior, the border patrols should monitor the region adaptively based on current available knowledge related to the trespassers. Due to a large area and obstacles of the typical border region, precise knowledge of the trespassers’ locations may not be available. In such region, knowledge can be archived through an assumption on known characteristics of the border region and observable footprints derived from discovered traces.This thesis exploits the border patrols’ patrol path planning in two aspects. The first aspect considers the unobservable environment, in which the border patrols has no observation related to the trespassers’ current locations. The border patrols can only rely on the assumption on known characteristics of the region. In this environment, the border patrol’s patrol path planning should be based on the heuristic that is constructed from known characteristics of the region. In addition, the heuristic should be adapted to a dynamic characteristic of the region. The second aspect considers the partially observable environment, in which the trespassers’ locations can be partially observed with uncertainty. In the second aspect, the trespasser is assumed to be adaptive and may not travel fluently based on the known characteristics of the region. A border patrol’s path should be planned adaptively based on a real-time observation of uncertain information. In addition to these two proposed patrol path planning schemes, this thesis contributes necessary models that could be useful for exploiting a border surveillance problem.The empirical experiments were conducted by mean of the simulated agents, which were programmed with the specific behaviors in the simulated border regions. The performances of the proposed patrol planning schemes were evaluated and compared against other patrol path planning schemes in different scenarios. The results show that the proposed patrol path planning schemes outperformed other schemes in term of the trespasser detection rate, where the border region has heterogeneous characteristics and the trespassers are partially observed.

title: Use of social information in relay selection schemes to improve throughput of device-to-device communications

description: Device-to-device (D2D) communication boosts the network capacity by enabling direct communications between devices. It can be used to exchange data between devices in proximity. This technology can be used in traditional cellular networks to improve throughput and spectral efficiency, reduce delay in transmission time or extend network coverage. Additionally, a relay can be used in D2D communications to enhance the benefits. This thesis proposes relay selection schemes for D2D communications in cooperative cellular networks. Our proposed schemes increase throughput of D2D communications using social information of users in the network, as well as their location information. The challenge of selecting a good relay is, as mobile devices are power constrained, the selected relay may not transmit at a high power, hence delivering low throughput. We assume relays are more likely to transmit at a high power if the device belongs to a user with a strong social trust with the source. Social information gathered from call history and online social networks gives an indicator of social trust between users, and in turn an indicator of a relay willing to transmit at a high power. We designed a set of relay selection schemes that differ by how much social trust information is available to mobile devices and base stations. All our relay selection schemes probe devices around the midpoint of the distance between the source and the destination. However, the filtering of devices before probing for relay selection vary for each of the schemes. Our proposed schemes perform significantly better than other schemes including the Hybrid Relay Selection (HRS) scheme proposed by Pan and Wang in all the network scenarios under consideration. Our newly developed scheme increases network throughput by upto 29% compared to HRS.

title: A study of data-driven optimization models with application to freight transportation

description: The vehicle routing problem (VRP) is a combinatorial optimization and integer programming problem that asks, “What is the optimal set of routes for a fleet of vehicles to traverse so that they can successfully deliver items to a given set of customers?” The VRP is solved to optimize vehicle routes by minimizing the traversal costs and without violating constraints. The performance can be assessed using the variables of capacity, energy consumption, and time-windows. In real-world applications, the VRP is applied by logistics agencies to optimize vehicle usage for delivering goods to customers. However, owing to the rapid growth in demand for logistics transportation, vehicle route optimization has become more crucial than ever.Vehicle route optimization tasks are becoming increasingly complicated because of the large number of requirement constraints and uncertainties in the environment. Thus, a solution that is calculated using daily dynamic information is required. Traditional route optimization methods cannot be applied directly, because most VRP models are static. This dissertation presents a proposal for a new methodology that was developed for vehicle route optimization in an attempt to address these issues.Essentially, the models in the proposed methodology comprises four general interconnected stages: data processing, detection, optimization, and analysis and validation. First, the data are collected, and the mathematics optimization problem is transformed into a reinforcement-learning problem using reinforcement problem formulation strategies. Second, behavior analysis is used to detect and evaluate the action of the agent responsible for reinforcement learning for vehicle route optimization. Third, new procedures are proposed to determine the utility and reward of the action of the reinforcement-learning agent using multi-attribute utility theory. The application of the procedure differs from that of general and hybrid models. To train the agent, two different types of algorithms comprising an actor- critic algorithm and asynchronous actor-critic algorithm are used. After all crucial steps are formulated and executed, vehicle route optimization is performed.Finally, case studies are used to evaluate and demonstrate the practicality of these methodologies. The result is analyzed and validated against the baseline using real operational data and well-known state-of-the-art approaches. The experimental results from the route optimization process demonstrate that the new hybrid model, which accounts for dynamic information, yields a profit of up to 27,381.35 THB with a 24.86% improvement on average for the non-incident case study and a profit of up to 48,895.68 THB with 57.91% improvement on average for the incident case. The results confirm that the new methodologies presented in this dissertation can replace individual experts without modification and monitoring. Further, the proposed approach handles the uncertainty in the environment more efficiently than current state-of-the-art approaches.
