Cost-Sensitive Trees for Energy-Efficient Context Recognition

An important problem in the field of context recognition is preserving the battery life of the sensing device. In this work we introduce cost-sensitive learning that takes into account the cost of having the sensors active and tries to balance it against the classification error. The benefits can be amplified by adapting the classifier to each context. This approach was tested on two real-life datasets where we achieved 78% and 80% reduction in energy consumption in exchange for almost no accuracy loss.

On The Efficient Implementation Of A Serial And Parallel Decomposition Algorithm For Fast Support Vector Machine Training Including A Multi-Parameter Kernel

This work deals with aspects of support vector machine learning for large-scale data mining tasks. Based on a decomposition algorithm for support vector machine training that can be run in serial as well as shared memory parallel mode we introduce a transformation of the training data that allows for the usage of an expensive generalized kernel without additional costs. We present experiments for the Gaussian kernel, but usage of other kernel functions is possible, too. In order to further speed up the decomposition algorithm we analyze the critical problem of working set selection for large training data sets. In addition, we analyze the influence of the working set sizes onto the scalability of the parallel decomposition scheme. Our tests and conclusions led to several modifications of the algorithm and the improvement of overall support vector machine learning performance. Our method allows for using extensive parameter search methods to optimize classification accuracy.

The genetic background of resistance to common bacterial blight in newly identified common bean lines on the basis of inheritance studies

Common bacterial blight (CBB), caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli (Xcp). is a major disease problem of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The inheritance of resistance in Xrl and Xr2 lines to two isolates of Xcp was studied in the F2 and F3 popu­lations from the crosses between these lines and the Masay variety (susceptible to Xcp). Segregation patterns indicated that different single recessive genes presumably in coupling phase linkage determined the resistance to the HUN and EK-1 1 strains of Xcp in both lines. The presence of some minor, modifying genes beside the monogenic genetic background of resistance was also observed. Xrl and Xr2 lines represent valuable new monogenic genetic sources in resistance breeding to CBB.

Fundamental Social Rights, Market Regulation and EU External Action

This article examines fundamental social rights in the era of globalization, focusing on the EU's strategy to promote respect for social rights in its external actions. A new feature of the Lisbon Treaty is the 'horizontal social clause' (Article 9 TFEU), stipulating that EU policies must take social requirements into account to ensure consistency between various policies and social objectives. This clause will be explored also in its external dimension, pursuant to Articles 2 and 3 of the Treaty. Finally, other social provisions of EU external action will be dealt with, including the promotion of International Labour Organization (ILO) labour standards in free trade agreements (such as the CARIFORUM), Corporate Social Responsibility and the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), in particular the GSP Plus scheme.

New derivatives of paracetamol as potent <i>α</i> -glucosidase inhibitors: synthesis, <i>in vitro,</i> and <i>in silico</i> studies

Twenty novel derivatives (<b>4</b>-<b>24</b>) of the commercially available drug paracetamol (<b>1</b>) were synthesized in decent yields by refluxing ethyl chloroacetate with paracetamol in the presence of potassium carbonate in DMF solvent to obtain ethyl 2-(4-acetamidophenoxy)acetate (<b>2</b>), which was further treated with hydrazine hydrate in absolute ethanol to get paracetamol hydrazide (<b>3</b>). Finally, various substituted aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes were refluxed with the hydrazide to get hydrazone-Schiff base derivatives (<b>4-24</b>). Structures of the synthesized derivatives were deduced through modern spectroscopic techniques (<sup>13</sup>C-,<sup>1</sup>H-NMR, and HR-ESI-MS). All the compounds were tested for <i>α</i>-glucosidase inhibitory potential because <i>α</i>-glucosidase inhibitors slow down carbohydrate digestion thus normalize blood glucose level indicates a promising target for the treatment of diabetes. Among them, five compounds including <b>4</b> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 90.98 ± 0.68 µM), <b>5</b> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 78.12 ± 0.47 µM), <b>11</b> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 27.54 ± 0.16 µM), <b>12</b> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 83.52 ± 0.70 µM), and <b>13</b> (IC<sub>50</sub> = 89.38 ± 0.67 µM) were found potent inhibitors of <i>α</i>-glucosidase as compared to the standard acarbose (IC<sub>50</sub> = 873.34 ± 1.67 µM). <i>In silico</i> studies were conducted to evaluate the binding affinity of the synthesized compounds with the target enzyme.

International Trade and Job Polarization: Evidence at the Worker-Level

This paper examines the role of international trade for job polarization-the decline in opportunities for mid-wage workers while those for high-and low-wage workers increase.With employer-employee matched data on virtually all workers and firms in Denmark between 1999 and 2009, we show that import competition has caused worker-level adjustments that lead to job polarization.When mid-wage workers adjust to the shock, highly educated and skilled workers end up in high-wage jobs whereas less educated workers end up in low-wage positions.We show that the specific tasks performed by a worker are central in determining trade's impact, and workers performing manual tasks are the ones most affected regardless of how routine or nonroutine these tasks are.Trade lets foreign workers compete against domestic workers, in contrast to technical progress which pits man versus machine country by country.Quantitatively, we find that job polarization through trade-induced worker adjustments is at least as strong as through technical change and offshoring.

ADVANCES IN THE STUDY OF MITE GALLOGENESIS AND ITS COMPARISON WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF INSECT-INDUCED GALLS

The present article reviews the main parasite–host model systems that have been used in recent studies in the molecular genetic analysis and in the investigation of the morpho-functional traits of mite gallogenesis on the leaves of angiosperms. The aforementioned works focused on the development of galls with a chamber, while other types of mite galls, including the most simply organized (erinea), remain virtually unstudied. Our article discusses the possible role of endosymbiotic bacteria in the induction of mite gallogenesis, as well as changes in the adaxial-abaxial polarity of the leaf and the expression of host plant genes during gallogenesis. The need for additional testing of the hypothesis regarding the participation of bacteria of the genera Wolbachia and Rhodococcus in the induction of gallogenesis is demonstrated. We have revealed certain convergent similarities in the gallogeneses induced by the grape phylloxera and by the gall mites. In particular, in both instances, the nutritive tissue is formed, the primary gall-inducing stimulus is produced by the feeding of females on young leaves, and the gall formations are accompanied by the abaxialization of the leaf. A review of the literature suggests that the Hearn’s hypothesis about the similarity of arthropod gallogenesis with the somatic embryogenesis of plants, as well as Wolpert’s embryological concept of the positional information in its classical form, are not appropriate for the modeling of gallogenesis. Finally, a new impetus for the study of gallogenesis could be provided by the studies that investigate the link between the genetic heterogeneity of different zones of the leaf blade and the developmental patterns of galls formed in these zones under the influence of plant parasites.

OPHTHALMIA NODOSA

Pagenstecher in 1883 described the first case of ophthalmia nodosa and termed the disease caterpillar hair ophthalmia. Wagenmann reported a case under the title pseudotuberculosis. Later Saemisch used the term ophthalmia nodosa. There is an early initial stage soon after the caterpillar hairs have entered the eye in which the only symptom is the sensation of a foreign body in the eye. The patient complains of itching, burning, lacrimation and photophobia. All of these symptoms are aggravated by rubbing of the eyelids. There may be swelling of the lids, pericorneal injection and edema. On application of fluorescein, the cornea stains. The epithelium of the cornea is lost either by penetration of the caterpillar hairs or as a result of excessive rubbing of the eyelids. The discomfort is due to foreign body irritation and chemical irritation. It has been demonstrated by Karsten that the canal of the hairs carries formic acid

[In vitro evaluation of mercury leakage from dental amalgam using atomic absorption spectrophotometry].

The findings suggest that not all the mercury available in the amalgamation phase is involved in the formation of the crystalline reticulum and that the percentage of mercury bonded is different every time. While the titre of free mercury encountered was always extremely low and hard to predict, it cannot be ignored.

Immune privileges as a result of mutual regulation of the immune and stem systems

Accumulating evidence shows that both normal and cancer stem cells exhibit immune privileges. This review focuses on stem cell immune privileges as a function of non-pathological stem cells related to autoimmunity control and regeneration. Based on the diversity in the regulation of stem cells, their microenvironment and the immune system, I propose the use of the term "stem system".

Path-dependence properties of leveraged exchange-traded funds: Compounding, volatility and option pricing

This thesis studies leveraged exchange-traded funds (ETF) and options written on them. In the first part, we give an exact formula linking the price evolution of a leveraged ETF (LETF) with the price of its underlying ETF. We test the formula empirically on historical data for 56 leveraged funds (44 double-leveraged, 12 triple-leveraged) using daily closing prices. The results indicate excellent agreement between the formula and the empirical data. The formula shows that the evolution of the price of an LETF is sensitive to the realized volatility of the underlying product. The relationship between an LETF and its underlying asset is “path-dependent.” The second part of the study focuses on the relations between options on LETFs and options on the underlying ETFs. The main result shows that an option on an LETF can be replicated by a basket of options on the underlying ETF after a suitable choice of strikes and notionals. In particular, we obtain a new, relative-value, model for pricing LETF options. The derivation makes strong use of the path-dependency result of Part I. As a consequence, we derive a simple non-parametric formula which links the volatility skew of an LETF with the volatility skew of the underlying ETF. We validate the theory empirically by showing that the model prices for options on LETFs are in excellent agreement with actual mid-market prices observed in markets. The empirical study was carried out on two LETFs linked to the S&amp;P 500 index (one double-leveraged, one reverse-double-leveraged). The issue of vega-hedging options on LETFs with options on the underlying ETFs is also examined from this viewpoint.

SH1240576.08FU

UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.

The dataset of 'The effects of 3% binahong (Anredera cordifolia) leaf extract gel on the alveolar bone healing in post-extraction tooth socket wound in Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus)'

Background: Binahong (<em>Anredera cordifolia</em> (Ten.) STEENIS) is a widely available herbal plant in Indonesia and has been intensely researched for its healing abilities due to its biological activities, but few studied its capability in accelerating hard tissue healing in post-extraction sockets. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of 3% binahong leaf extract gel on the alveolar bone healing in the post-extraction sockets in Wistar rats. Methods: In this study, 48 male Wistar rats were randomly allocated to twelve groups. After the extraction of the left mandibular incisor, sockets in Group I to IV were given 3% binahong leaf extract gel, group V to VIII were given base gel, and group IX to XII were given Gengigel® for 14 days. The residual socket volume (RSV) and fibroblast proliferation were observed on the 3rd, 7th, and 14th day post-extraction, while the osteoblast and osteocyte proliferation were observed on the 7th, 14th, and 28th day post-extraction. The RSV data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA and one-way ANOVA, while the histopathological data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. Results: The results showed that the binahong group had the lowest RSV and the highest fibroblast proliferation compared to the other groups on the 7th day (p&lt;0.05) and the highest osteoblast and osteocyte proliferation compared to the other groups on the 14th day (p&lt;0.05). Conclusion: The experiment showed that 3% binahong leaf extract gel could enhance alveolar bone healing by increasing the proliferation of fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and osteocytes.

Older LGBT+ and Blockchain in Healthcare: A Value Sensitive Design Perspective

Most algorithms deployed in healthcare do not consider gender and sex despite the effect they have on individuals' health differences. Missing these dimensions in healthcare information systems is a point of concern, as neglecting these aspects will inevitably perpetuate existing biases, produce far from optimal results, and may generate diagnosis errors. An often-overlooked community with distinct care values and needs are LGBT+ older adults, which has traditionally been under-surveyed in healthcare and technology design. This paper investigates the implications of missing gender and sex considerations in distributed ledger technologies for LGBT+ older adults. By using the value sensitive design methodology, our contribution shows that many value meanings dear to marginalized communities are not considered in the design of the blockchain, such as LGBT+ older adults' interpretations of trust, privacy, and security. By highlighting the LGBT+ older population values, our contribution alerts us to the potential discriminatory implications of these technologies, which do not consider the gender and sex differences of marginalized, silent populations. Focusing on one community throughout - LGBT+ older adults - we emphasize the need for a holistic, value sensitive design approach for the development of ledger technologies for healthcare, including the values of everyone within the healthcare ecosystem.
