A Framework for Recommending Relevant and Diverse Items
Venue: IJCAI

The traditional recommendation systems usually aim to improve the recommendation accuracy while overlooking the diversity within the recommended lists. Although some diversification techniques have been designed to recommend top k items in terms of both relevance and diversity, the coverage of the user's interest is overlooked. In this paper, we propose a general framework to recommend relevant and diverse items which explicitly takes the coverage of user interest into account. Based on the theoretical analysis, we design efficient greedy algorithms to get the near optimal solutions for those NP hard problems. Experimental results on MovieLens dataset demonstrate that our approach outperforms state of the art techniques in terms of both precision and diversity.
Memory and the developing brain: are insights from cognitive neuroscience applicable to education?
Venue: Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences

In this paper we present a succinct overview of the current knowledge about the neural correlates of memory development. Behavioral evidence strongly supports the view that developmental effects are specific to memory that is complex, and rich in contextual details. Neuroimaging evidence supports an emerging view that stability and change in memory functioning across age reflects the structural and functional maturation of the brain regions that support memory, particularly regions in the prefrontal cortex and the medial temporal lobe. Recent research efforts using functional neuroimaging have been directed to test hypotheses about the neural basis of age related difference in memory capacities, prior knowledge, and effective use of strategies and metacognitive abilities. Additionally, we review recent evidence about how the development of the brain may set specific limits on, and present certain opportunities for, memory functioning. Finally, we discuss the challenges in applying insights from investigations into the neural basis of memory development to educational practices. We conclude that even though we have learned a great deal about the neural correlates of memory development, there are still several critical limitations in applying this knowledge to educational practices.

Fuzzy Gain Scheduling of PID (FGS PID) for Speed Control Three Phase Induction Motor Based on Indirect Field Oriented Control (IFOC)

This paper propose about using PID control system based on Kp, Ki, and Kd parameter determination with scheduling process from fuzzy logic. Control system is used to arrange speed of three phase induction motor using IFOC method. This method can be minimized the main problem from speed control of induction motor which is a transient condition. The robustness validation from this system use testing process of dynamic speed which is compared with the other control system to know the system performance in transient condition such as (rise time, overshoot, undershoot and settling time) The result shows using the proposed system has better performance responses which is requiring 0.001 seconds time in transient condition up to steady state condition without overshoot and undershoot problem.

The results are presented and discussed.
Who Decided College Access in Chinese Secondary Education? Rural Urban Inequality of Basic Education in Contemporary China.

This paper investigates the rural urban inequalities in basic education of contemporary China. The China Education Panel Survey (2013 2014) (CEPS) was utilized to analyze the gaps between rural and urban inequality in junior high schools in terms of three domains, which include the equalities of access, inputs, and outcomes. From the sociocultural and sociopolitical perspective, the household registration system impeded the improvement and development of Chinese basic education. The study found that insufficient funding and support provided the cumulative negative impacts on educational mobility and equality. The regional basic education divide was caused by ineffective and unequal allocation of education resources. This analysis also addresses a number of pertinent economic and political issues related to basic education in current China.
Mavo: Creating Interactive Data Driven Web Applications by Authoring HTML
Venue: UIST

Many people can author static web pages with HTML and CSS but find it hard or impossible to program persistent, interactive web applications. We show that for a broad class of CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) applications, this gap can be bridged. Mavo extends the declarative syntax of HTML to describe Web applications that manage, store and transform data. Using Mavo, authors with basic HTML knowledge define complex data schemas implicitly as they design their HTML layout. They need only add a few attributes and expressions to their HTML elements to transform their static design into a persistent, data driven web application whose data can be edited by direct manipulation of the content in the browser. We evaluated Mavo with 20 users who marked up static designs some provided by us, some their own creation to transform them into fully functional web applications. Even users with no programming experience were able to quickly craft Mavo applications.
Configuration Design of the Add on Cyber physical System with CNC Machine Tools and its Application Perspectives

In order to achieve the intelligent control of production processes, a data driven add on cyber physical system architecture of a CNC machine tool is proposed. And three key aspects of the configuration design of the cyber physical system are also studied, i.e. node configuration of the add on cyber physical system, interconnection technology of the heterogeneous nodes and data driven adaptive configuration method of the sensor networks. A Big Data analysis method is adopted to discover the unknown configuration rules and the optimal control. Finally, a cyber physical system based on a small scale flexible automated production line in our Manufacturing System Lab is taken as an application case.
Community owned solutions for fire management in tropical ecosystems: case studies from Indigenous communities of South America
Venue: Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences

Fire plays an increasingly significant role in tropical forest and savanna ecosystems, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and impacting on biodiversity. Emerging research shows the potential role of Indigenous land use practices for controlling deforestation and reducing CO2 emissions. Analysis of satellite imagery suggests that Indigenous lands have the lowest incidence of wildfires, significantly contributing to maintaining carbon stocks and enhancing biodiversity. Yet acknowledgement of Indigenous peoples' role in fire management and control is limited, and in many cases dismissed, especially in policy making circles. In this paper, we review existing data on Indigenous fire management and impact, focusing on examples from tropical forest and savanna ecosystems in Venezuela, Brazil and Guyana. We highlight how the complexities of community owned solutions for fire management are being lost as well as undermined by continued efforts on fire suppression and firefighting, and emerging approaches to incorporate Indigenous fire management into market and incentive based mechanisms for climate change mitigation. Our aim is to build a case for supporting Indigenous fire practices within all scales of decision making by strengthening Indigenous knowledge systems to ensure more effective and sustainable fire management.

Synchronization of hybrid coupled delayed dynamical networks via aperiodically intermittent pinning control
Venue: J. Frankl. Inst.

In this paper, we concern the exponential synchronization problem for hybrid coupled delayed dynamical networks via pinning aperiodically intermittent control. Different from previous works, the delayed coupling term considered here contains the transmission delay and self feedback delay, and the intermittent control can be aperiodic. By establishing a new differential inequality and constructing Lyapunov function, several useful criteria are derived analytically to realise exponential synchronization for both free time delay (there is no restriction imposed on the delay and the control (and/or rest) width) and small time delay (the delay is smaller than the minimum of control width) Moreover, the detail of pinning and aperiodically intermittent control strategy are provided. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the validness of the proposed scheme.
Outer synchronization between two hybrid coupled delayed dynamical networks via aperiodically adaptive intermittent pinning control
Venue: Complex.

This article is concerned with the problem of pinning outer synchronization between two complex delayed dynamical networks via adaptive intermittent control. At first, a general model of hybrid coupled dynamical network with time varying internal delay and time varying coupling delay is given. Then, an aperiodically adaptive intermittent pinning control strategy is introduced to drive two such delayed dynamical networks to achieve outer synchronization. Some sufficient conditions to guarantee global outer synchronization are derived by constructing a novel piecewise Lyapunov function and utilizing stability analytical method. Moreover, a simple pinned node selection scheme determining what kinds of nodes should be pinned first is provided. It is noted that the adaptive pinning control type is aperiodically intermittent, where both control period and control width are non fixed. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the validity of the theoretical results.
Location, location, location: the evolutionary history of CD1 genes and the NKR P1/ligand systems
Venue: Immunogenetics

CD1 genes encode cell surface molecules that present lipid antigens to various kinds of T lymphocytes of the immune system. The structures of CD1 genes and molecules are like the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I system, the loading of antigen and the tissue distribution for CD1 molecules are like those in the class II system, and phylogenetic analyses place CD1 between class I and class II sequences, altogether leading to the notion that CD1 is a third ancient system of antigen presentation molecules. However, thus far, CD1 genes have only been described in mammals, birds and reptiles, leaving major questions as to their origin and evolution. In this review, we recount a little history of the field so far and then consider what has been learned about the structure and functional attributes of CD1 genes and molecules in marsupials, birds and reptiles. We describe the central conundrum of CD1 evolution, the genomic location of CD1 genes in the MHC and/or MHC paralogous regions in different animals, considering the three models of evolutionary history that have been proposed. We describe the natural killer (NK) receptors NKR P1 and ligands, also found in different genomic locations for different animals. We discuss the consequence of these three models, one of which includes the repudiation of a guiding principle for the last 20 years, that two rounds of genome wide duplication at the base of the vertebrates provided the extra MHC genes necessary for the emergence of adaptive immune system of jawed vertebrates.
International cooperation to improve access to and sustain effectiveness of antimicrobials
Venue: The Lancet

Securing access to effective antimicrobials is one of the greatest challenges today. Until now, efforts to address this issue have been isolated and uncoordinated, with little focus on sustainable and international solutions. Global collective action is necessary to improve access to life saving antimicrobials, conserving them, and ensuring continued innovation. Access, conservation, and innovation are beneficial when achieved independently, but much more effective and sustainable if implemented in concert within and across countries. WHO alone will not be able to drive these actions. It will require a multisector response (including the health, agriculture, and veterinary sectors) global coordination, and financing mechanisms with sufficient mandates, authority, resources, and power. Fortunately, securing access to effective antimicrobials has finally gained a place on the global political agenda, and we call on policy makers to develop, endorse, and finance new global institutional arrangements that can ensure robust implementation and bold collective action.
A multi level perspective on learning about climate change adaptation through international cooperation

International cooperation and learning may accelerate climate change adaptation and help countries and regions to adapt more effectively and efficiently. Recognizing the importance and opportunities for mutual learning and knowledge transfer, international and supranational organizations, such as the European Commission, have put programmes for international cooperation in place. This paper presents and tests a framework for assessing multi level learning outcomes of such international cooperation processes and the conditions that produce these outcomes. The framework distinguishes between: (1) group learning by individual process participants; (2) organizational learning by organizations represented in the process; and (3) network and societal learning by actors external to the process. We verify the analytical potential of the framework by comparing learning by six partners in an adaptation oriented European cooperation project. The project scores rather high on group learning with participants learning from and to a lesser extent also with each other. Learning by partner organizations varied and was generally less whereas learning by external actors was very limited. The case study confirms our expectation that learning outcomes are produced by combinations of partner specific, process specific and process external conditions. The presented framework and insights can be used to stimulate learning in and from international cooperation processes.
Is There Macroprudential Policy Without International Cooperation?

In this paper we address three questions: (1) Does global finance require a common prudential standard? (2) Does global finance require international cooperation in overseeing the system's safety and soundness? And (3) does global finance require notification, cooperation and coordination of dynamic regulatory policy adjustments? Our answer to the first question is that global finance does require a common prudential standard, defined as a level of required resilience, applied appropriately to all parts of the financial system. Without adoption of a common resilience standard, the international financial system will fragment and balkanize. In addressing the second question, we explain why shared, collective analysis is necessary to identify and mitigate stability threatening shortfalls against that standard for resilience. This will be possible only with increased public and private transparency. Finally, we examine the daunting, but essential, task of implementing a dynamic prudential framework that maintains the system's resilience even as its structure and risk taking behaviors change. The policy implications of our analysis focus on the need for global agreement, implementation monitoring, information sharing and even, sometimes given damaging spillovers, collective regulatory responses to emerging threats. Institutions will need to be adapted to make all this feasible.
International cooperation on transboundary aquifers in South America and the Guarani Aquifer case

International cooperation on groundwater takes many forms. The mobilization of different actors helps to promote cooperation initiatives in South America, where the most well known case is the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS) This article intends to analyze how international actors have motivated cooperation on transboundary aquifers and its repercussions in South America, especially in the case of the GAS.
Oil and International Cooperation

The more that states depend on oil exports, the less cooperative they become: they grow less likely to join intergovernmental organizations, to accept the compulsory jurisdiction of international judicial bodies, and to agree to binding arbitration for investment disputes. This pattern is robust to the use of country and year fixed effects, to alternative measures of the key variables, and to the exclusion of all countries in the Middle East. To explain this pattern, we consider the economic incentives that foster participation in international institutions: the desire to attract foreign investment and to gain access to foreign markets. Oil exporting states, we argue, find it relatively easy to achieve these aims without making costly commitments to international institutions. In other words, natural resource wealth liberates states from the economic pressures that would otherwise drive them toward cooperation.
Rule based agent for social media sentiment detection
Venue: 2016 2nd International Symposium on Agent, Multi Agent Systems and Robotics (ISAMSR)

Current technology use the beneficial from social media as their vehicle to do multiple processes that incorporate social media participation in its many forms. Social media is a great "hub" to get closer with the citizens. Sentiment analysis is the area that able to monitor the social media activities from such processes and functions acquired especially on the posting and comments publicly send. In this paper, the rule based method is proposed that been derived from an agent to help social media communication platform such as Facebook and Twitter to do various sentiment detection. By formulating of rule based method is to ensure that only suitable and optimized rules will be chosen for the implementation of the sentiment detection. The newly formulated rule based method enable agent to generate few task using Semantic Role Labeling technique especially on text processing to filter and classify the content data set, advancing the state of the art in sentiment detection approaches. In particular, this work is novel in its proposed new rule based techniques to manipulate the sentiment detection in social media and also for improving the quality of sentiment analysis.
