Managerial bonuses and subordinate mistreatment [Dataset]
Can performance bonuses increase the likelihood that managers coerce their subordinates into exerting high levels of effort when doing so promotes neither efficiency nor equity? We consider a laboratory setting in which managers compete to obtain a large bonus at the end of the experiment and the probability of obtaining it depends partly on the effort exerted by the subordinates. We find that managers are more than twice as likely to punish subordinates exerting “fair” levels of effort if they compete for individual bonuses than when there are no bonuses. This is not the case when they compete for pooled bonuses – giving managers discretionary power over how to share them with their subordinates – as most subordinates willingly exert maximal effort. A model in which individuals are assumed to care about equity captures subordinates’ behavior well. Managers’ willingness to coerce subordinates into exerting unfairly high levels of effort, on the other hand, cannot be readily accounted for by any of the existing models of social preferences

An updated method for link prediction that uses a regularization factor that models relation argument types
Abstract (Kotnis and Nastase, 2017):
Learning relations based on evidence from knowledge repositories
relies on processing the available relation instances. Knowledge
repositories are not balanced in terms of relations or entities – there
are relations with less than 10 but also thousands of instances, and
entities involved in less than 10 but also thousands of relations.
Many relations, however, have clear domain and range, which we
hypothesize could help learn a better, more generalizing, model.
We include such information in the RESCAL model in the form
of a regularization factor added to the loss function that takes into
account the types (categories) of the entities that appear as arguments
to relations in the knowledge base. Tested on Freebase, a frequently
used benchmarking dataset for link/path predicting tasks, we note
increased performance compared to the baseline model in terms of
mean reciprocal rank and hits@N, N = 1, 3, 10. Furthermore, we
discover scenarios that significantly impact the effectiveness of the
type regularizer
Lauchheim II.2. Katalog der Gräber 301–600
Mit rund 1300 Gräbern aus dem Zeitraum vom späten 5. bis zum späten 7. Jahrhundert ist das Gräberfeld von Lauchheim 'Wasserfurche' (Ostalbkreis) bis heute der größte bekannte merowingerzeitliche Bestattungsplatz Süddeutschlands. In den Jahren 1986 bis 1996 wurde das fast vollständig erhaltene Gräberfeld großflächig ausgegraben. Seit 2009 widmete sich ein multidisziplinäres Forschungsprojekt der Dokumentation und Auswertung der Lauchheimer Gräber und Grabbeigaben. Dabei kamen in großem Maßstab innovative Dokumentationsmethoden mit dem Ziel einer möglichst vollständigen Datenerfassung zum Einsatz. Als Ergebnis dieses Projekts werden die Befunde und Funde aus Lauchheim in einem detaillierten Katalog mit umfangreichem Tafelteil vorgelegt und damit der weiteren wissenschaftlichen Auswertung zugänglich gemacht. Der vorliegende zweite von insgesamt vier Teilbänden des Katalogs umfasst die Gräber 301–600. Als Datensupplement werden Abbildungen der Perlen aus den Gräbern bereitgestellt. Die Abbildungen liegen als separate tif-Dateien sowie zusammengefasst in einer pdf-Datei vor. Die Dateinamen der einzelnen Bilddateien setzen sich aus der Grabnummer, der Objektnummer und einer Bildnummer zusammen

Negative Sampling for Learning Knowledge Graph Embeddings
Reimplementation of four KG factorization methods and six negative sampling methods.
Abstract
Knowledge graphs are large, useful, but incomplete knowledge repositories. They encode knowledge through entities and relations which define each other through the connective structure of the graph. This has inspired methods for the joint embedding of entities and relations in continuous low-dimensional vector spaces, that can be used to induce new edges in the graph, i.e., link prediction in knowledge graphs. Learning these representations relies on contrasting positive instances with negative ones. Knowledge graphs include only positive relation instances, leaving the door open for a variety of methods for selecting negative examples. In this paper we present an empirical study on the impact of negative sampling on the learned embeddings, assessed through the task of link prediction. We use state-of-the-art knowledge graph embeddings -- \rescal , TransE, DistMult and ComplEX -- and evaluate on benchmark datasets -- FB15k and WN18. We compare well known methods for negative sampling and additionally propose embedding based sampling methods. We note a marked difference in the impact of these sampling methods on the two datasets, with the "traditional" corrupting positives method leading to best results on WN18, while embedding based methods benefiting the task on FB15k
Selectional Preference Embeddings (EMNLP 2017)
Joint embeddings of selectional preferences, words, and fine-grained entity types.
The vocabulary consists of:
verbs and their dependency relation separated by "@", e.g. "sink@nsubj" or "elect@dobj"
words and short noun phrases, e.g. "Titanic"
fine-grained entity types using the FIGER inventory, e.g.: /product/ship or /person/politician
The files are in word2vec binary format, which can be loaded in Python with gensim like this:
from gensim.models import KeyedVectors
emb_file = "/path/to/embedding_file"
emb = KeyedVectors.load_word2vec_format(emb_file, binary=True)

Current knowledge on correlations between highly prevalent dental conditions and chronic diseases: an umbrella review [Dataset]
Introduction: There are existing studies investigating relationships between chronic systemic and dental conditions, but it remains unclear how such knowledge can be used in clinical practice. The present report provides an overview on existing systematic reviews, identifying and evaluating the most frequently reported dental-chronic disease correlations and common risk factors.
Methods: A systematic review on existing systematic reviews published between 1995 and 2017 was conducted (umbrella review) and indexed into four databases. The focus was set on the three most prevalent dental conditions and ten chronic systemic diseases with the highest burden of disease in Germany. Two independent reviewers assessed all articles for eligibility, methodological quality using the AMSTAR criteria, and extracted data from the included studies.
Results: 32 out of the initially identified 1,249 systematic reviews were included for qualitative synthesis. The dental conditions with most frequently observed correlations to chronic systemic diseases was periodontitis. The chronic systemic disease with most frequently observed correlations with a dental condition was diabetes mellitus type 2. Most dental-chronic disease correlations were found between periodontitis and diabetes mellitus type 2 and periodontitis and cardiovascular disease. Frequently reported common risk factors included smoking, age, sex and overweight. Using the AMSTAR criteria, 2 studies were assessed as low quality, 26 studies moderate and 4 studies high quality.
Conclusion: The quality of included systematic reviews was heterogenous. The most frequently reported correlations were found for periodontitis with diabetes mellitus type 2 and for cardiovascular disease with diabetes mellitus type 2. Yet the strength of evidence for these and other disease correlations remains limited. The evidence to assess the causality of these disease correlations remains unclear. Future research should therefore focus on the causality of disease links in order to provide more decisive evidence with respect to the design of intersectoral care processes
