Simulating Climate Change Negotiations: Lessons from Modeled Experience
Year: 2012

Studies of the negotiation process in the context of climate change have been limited. This report argues that it is necessary to cope not only with the complexity of the substantial issues related to climate change (scientific, technical, economic, political, and social) but also with the complexity of this multiparty international negotiation process and with the uncertainty of the negotiation outcome. Preparing decision makers for negotiations requires developing a tool kit that includes strategies for dealing with complexity; creating such a tool kit requires collecting knowledge through the systematic study of relevant negotiations. Analyzing the documents and transcripts from previous climate change negotiations is necessary but insufficient. In this report, I argue the need to employ innovative approaches to understanding the complexity of the climate change negotiation. For this reason, I conducted a series of games that simulated United Nations sponsored climate change negotiations. In these games, variables were manipulated to explore the impact of various conditions on negotiating behaviors, processes, and outcomes. The results offer insights that may help researchers and negotiators develop practical strategies to cope with the complexity of international climate change negotiations. Among these are propositions about reframing the "North South divide" and about encouraging "threshold states" to assume the role of the bridge between various groups and coalitions in the international system.
Triple Product L values and Dihedral Congruences for Cusp Forms
Year: 2009

Let be a prime, and In this paper, we prove that a certain trace of normalized, rightmost critical values of triple product L functions, of cuspidal Hecke eigenforms of level one and weight k, is non integral at p if and only if the class number We use the Bloch Kato conjecture to explain this, using "dihedral" congruences, modulo a divisor of p, for cuspidal Hecke eigenforms of level one and weight k (e.g. p 23, k 12, g D) Exploiting the Galois interpretation of such congruences, we may produce global torsion elements which contribute to the denominator of the conjectural formula for some L value contributing to the trace.
Annual Report Readability and Stock Liquidity
Venue: Financial Markets, Institutions Instruments
Year: 2019

We examine the effect of annual report textual complexity on firms' stock liquidity. Using techniques from computational linguistics, we predict and find that less readable filings are associated with lower stock liquidity. Our study provides evidence that difficult to read annual reports hinders investor's ability to process and analyze information contained in corporate annual reports, reducing thereby their willingness to trade which decreases stock liquidity. Our findings are robust to a battery of sensitivity tests, including endogeneity, use of alternative regression techniques, and use of alternative liquidity and readability proxies.
On the role of two dimensional phonons in the possibility of the observation of the quantum hall effect in graphene at room temperature
Year: 2014

An explanation of the possibility of the observation of the quantum Hall effect in graphene at room temperature with allowance for the two dimensional nature of the electron and phonon excitations has been proposed. It has been shown that the two dimensional character of the electron phonon interaction under conditions of a strong magnetic field establishes the threshold for the energy of the emitted or absorbed phonon, thus reducing the fraction of the electronic states involved in the percolation process. The number of mixed states is proportional to the root of the magnetic field rather than to the temperature. Therefore, the percolation threshold in a rather strong magnetic field no longer depends on the temperature and the limitation on the maximum observation temperature with allowance for exclusively two dimensional phonons arises owing to the temperature smearing of the Fermi distribution function. The contribution of three dimensional phonons, as well as the quantitative agreement with the experiment, has also been discussed.
Mandibular bone block harvesting from the retromolar region: a 10 year prospective clinical study.
Venue: The International journal of oral maxillofacial implants
Year: 2015

The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the outcome of bone block harvesting from the external oblique ridge with the MicroSaw, assess the volume of the harvested block, and identify possible morbidity and complications related to the procedure.  Bone blocks were harvested from the external oblique line of the mandible according to the MicroSaw protocol. The bone blocks were split into two thinner blocks with a diamond disk according to the split bone block (SBB) technique for biologic grafting procedures.  In all, 3,874 bone blocks were harvested from the external oblique line of the mandible in 3,328 patients. Four hundred nineteen patients (12.59% underwent bilateral bone block harvesting, and 127 patients (3.82% had more than one block harvested from the same area during the study period. In 431 cases (11.12% only one block was required, so the second was repositioned to reconstruct its donor site. The average harvesting time was 6.5 2.5 minutes, and a mean volume of 1.9 0.9 cm3 was obtained (maximum 4.4 cm3) In 168 (4.33% cases, the alveolar nerve was exposed, leading to sensory problems lasting up to 6 months. In 20 cases (0.5% minor nerve injury resulted in hypesthesia or paresthesia that lasted for up to 1 year in most patients. No major nerve lesions with permanent anesthesia were observed. Sixty one (1.58% donor sites showed primary healing complications, most in smokers (80.4% Reentry of 16 reimplanted harvested areas was performed between 6 and 40 months later, showing a well regenerated and healed external oblique ridge.  This study demonstrated that relatively large volumes of bone block graft can be retrieved in the mandible with a low complication rate. Reimplantation of half of the bone block offers the possibility for complete regeneration of the donor site.
An Innovative Approach for Online Food Order Management System
Year: 2018

Restaurants are one of the favorite premises .An online food ordering is a integrated process in fast food Restaurants to offer choice of food from menu, cooked and served or packaged hot to satisfy customer to immediately make orders on their ownselves. Customers can also call the restaurant to pack in advance or to deliver the food item but sometimes restaurants run out of certain items.The existing system lacks the feature to use Remote GPS tracker such that restaurant managers are auto updated about the location of the customer before reaching the restaurant. We propose a complete system to easily manage online menu where items update as per the availability of food and prices. The Customer views the products, register and place the order. The system administrator adds and manages user accounts and the Manager manages product and orders. The Kitchen meal deliverable deals with pending deliveries .The proposed system is developed using Android platform which is open source software and built in data connection modules. It also decreases labour rates to replace mobile phones to book order and table unlike employees who come to take order and payments .In advent of food consumption problems like obesity, overeating etc. ,he proposed system will show food items with nutrition based searches showing ingredients of the food items.

Epigenetics of lung cancer: a translational perspective
Venue: Cellular Oncology
Year: 2019

Lung cancer remains the most common cause of cancer related death, with a 5 year survival rate of only 18% In recent years, the development of targeted pharmacological agents and immunotherapies has substantially increased the survival of a subset of patients. However, most patients lack such efficacious therapy and are, thus, treated with classical chemotherapy with poor clinical outcomes. Therefore, novel therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. In recent years, the development of epigenetic assays and their application to cancer research have highlighted the relevance of epigenetic regulation in the initiation, development, progression and treatment of lung cancer. A variety of epigenetic modifications do occur at different steps of lung cancer development, some of which are key to tumor progression. The rise of cutting edge technologies such as single cell epigenomics is, and will continue to be, crucial for uncovering epigenetic events at a single cell resolution, leading to a better understanding of the biology underlying lung cancer development and to the design of novel therapeutic options. This approach has already led to the development of strategies involving single agents or combined agents targeting epigenetic modifiers, currently in clinical trials. Here, we will discuss the epigenetics of every step of lung cancer development, as well as the translation of these findings into clinical applications.
Beyond Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces: Reflective Transmissive Metasurface Aided Communications for Full Dimensional Coverage Extension
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology
Year: 2020

In this paper, we study an intelligent omni surface (IOS) assisted downlink communication system, where the link quality of a mobile user (MU) can be improved with a proper IOS phase shift design. Unlike the intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) in most existing works that only forwards the signals in a reflective way, the IOS is capable to forward the received signals to the MU in either a reflective or a transmissive manner, thereby enhancing the wireless coverage. We formulate an IOS phase shift optimization problem to maximize the downlink spectral efficiency (SE) of the MU. The optimal phase shift of the IOS is analysed, and a branch and bound based algorithm is proposed to design the IOS phase shift in a finite set. Simulation results show that the IOS assisted system can extend the coverage significantly when compared to the IRS assisted system with only reflective signals.
Genetic Variants Associated with Chronic Kidney Disease in a Spanish Population
Venue: Scientific Reports
Year: 2020

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have many affected physiological pathways. Variations in the genes regulating these pathways might affect the incidence and predisposition to this disease. A total of 722 Spanish adults, including 548 patients and 174 controls, were genotyped to better understand the effects of genetic risk loci on the susceptibility to CKD. We analyzed 38 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes associated with the inflammatory response (interleukins IL 1A, IL 4, IL 6, IL 10, TNF a, ICAM 1) fibrogenesis (TGFB1) homocysteine synthesis (MTHFR) DNA repair (OGG1, MUTYH, XRCC1, ERCC2, ERCC4) renin angiotensin aldosterone system (CYP11B2, AGT) phase II metabolism (GSTP1, GSTO1, GSTO2) antioxidant capacity (SOD1, SOD2, CAT, GPX1, GPX3, GPX4) and some other genes previously reported to be associated with CKD (GLO1, SLC7A9, SHROOM3, UMOD, VEGFA, MGP, KL) The results showed associations of GPX1, GSTO1, GSTO2, UMOD, and MGP with CKD. Additionally, associations with CKD related pathologies, such as hypertension (GPX4, CYP11B2, ERCC4) cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer predisposition (ERCC2) were also observed. Different genes showed association with biochemical parameters characteristic for CKD, such as creatinine (GPX1, GSTO1, GSTO2, KL, MGP) glomerular filtration rate (GPX1, GSTO1, KL, ICAM 1, MGP) hemoglobin (ERCC2, SHROOM3) resistance index erythropoietin (SOD2, VEGFA, MTHFR, KL) albumin (SOD1, GSTO2, ERCC2, SOD2) phosphorus (IL 4, ERCC4 SOD1, GPX4, GPX1) parathyroid hormone (IL 1A, IL 6, SHROOM3, UMOD, ICAM 1) C reactive protein (SOD2, TGFB1,GSTP1, XRCC1) and ferritin (SOD2, GSTP1, SLC7A9, GPX4) To our knowledge, this is the second comprehensive study carried out in Spanish patients linking genetic polymorphisms and CKD.
Homomorphic graph matching of articulated objects by an integrated recognition scheme
Venue: Expert Syst. Appl.
Year: 2006

In the last few years, several attempts have been made to the study of object recognition under affine transformation, but all these studies have concentrated on graph isomorphism. There has not been any discussion of solving the graph homomorphism problem under affine transformation to date. Therefore, in this paper, an integrated approach, which combines the advantages of both the genetic algorithm and Hopfield neural network, is proposed for solving object recognition under this condition. The genetic algorithm is first used, to find the near optimal solution including all the poses of the model in the scene. Then the Hopfield network is implemented and repeated to find each pose of the model. This method can solve occluded object recognition problems, and it can also obtain the homomorphic mapping indicating multiple occurrences of a model in the scene. The system is used to recognize articulated objects, and we do not need to know in advance that there is one in the scene. Kinematic properties like the position of the joint, relative displacement can be found for the articulated object. Through experiments, we can demonstrate that the proposed method is robust.

Fake science and the knowledge crisis: ignorance can be fatal
Venue: Royal Society Open Science
Year: 2019

Computers, the Internet and social media enable every individual to be a publisher, communicating true or false information instantly and globally. In the 'post truth' era, deception is commonplace at all levels of contemporary life. Fakery affects science and social information and the two have become highly interactive globally, undermining trust in science and the capacity of individuals and society to make evidence informed choices, including on life or death issues. Ironically, drivers of fake science are embedded in the current science publishing system intended to disseminate evidenced knowledge, in which the intersection of science advancement and reputational and financial rewards for scientists and publishers incentivize gaming and, in the extreme, creation and promotion of falsified results. In the battle for truth, individual scientists, professional associations, academic institutions and funding bodies must act to put their own house in order by promoting ethics and integrity and de incentivizing the production and publishing of false data and results. They must speak out against false information and fake science in circulation and forcefully contradict public figures who promote it. They must contribute to research that helps understand and counter false information, to education that builds knowledge and skills in assessing information and to strengthening science literacy in society.
A data driven prediction approach for sports team performance and its application to National Basketball Association
Year: 2019

Performance prediction is an issue of vital importance in many real managerial applications. This paper will propose a prediction approach for sports team performance based on data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology and data driven technique. The proposed approach includes two steps: The first one conducts a multivariate logistic regression analysis to examine the relationship between the winning probability and game outcomes at the team level. The other one addresses a DEA based player portfolio efficiency analysis to optimally choose players and plan the playing time among players in the court. The second step aims to use players' and team's historical data to train the future and obtain the most promising outcomes in terms of their average inefficiency status. Finally, we apply the proposed performance prediction approach to National Basketball Association and take Golden State Warriors as an example to illustrate its usefulness and efficacy. We obtain the prediction results for the 2015 16 regular season based on a four season dataset from the 2011 12 season to the 2014 15 season. Further, we carry out multiple experiments to provide deeper discussion and analysis on according prediction results. It shows that the DEA based data driven approach can predict the sports team performance very well and can also provide interesting insights into the performance prediction problem.
The influence of the physical environment on self recovery after disasters in Nepal and the Philippines
Year: 2020

Following a disaster, the majority of families rebuild their homes themselves. In this paper, we consider how the physical environment influences such 'self recovery' by investigating disasters in the Philippines (typhoons Haiyan in 2013 and Haima in 2016) and Nepal (the Gorkha earthquake 2015) Despite the many differences in the disaster contexts, there are some common barriers to self recovery (and building back better) in a substantially changed and dynamic multi hazard, post disaster environment. These are related to changes in water supply (shortage or surplus) impacts of post disaster geohazard events on infrastructure (particularly affecting transport) and the availability of technical advice. People face a broad spectrum of challenges as they recover and tackling these 'geo barriers' may help to create a more enabling environment for self recovery. The findings point to what needs to be in place to support self recovery in dynamic physical environments, including geoscience information and advice, and restoration of infrastructure damaged by natural hazard events. Further research is necessary to understand the issues this raises for the shelter and geoscience communities, particularly around availability of geoscience expertise, capacity and information at a local scale.
