    Hsiao L, Best D, Hulsey E, Bergman B, Kraemer KL, Colditz JB. (April 2022). Identifying and characterizing substance use recovery communities online. Poster in Baltimore, MD: 43nd Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions of the Society of Behavioral Medicine. Takeaway: The heterogeneity of sites makes it important to have a consistent framework for accurate comparisons between platforms. We compiled these results into NEAR-FAR, a searchable forum directory to help people find recovery resources.</p

    Citation: Bengtson, Jason. "Why I Can't Love the Homemade Semantic Web." B Sides Jan (2010) : n. pag. Web.Almost all information professionals agree that the web needs to move to a semantic structure. While work is proceeding in this area, movements to get individual web authors to use semantic markup tools have also been on the rise. This author argues that such efforts are ill conceived and he proposes an automated alternative

    THE B(1/22P3/2)X(1/22Σ+B(1/2^{2}P_{3/2}) \rightarrow X(1/2^{2}\Sigma^{+}) TRANSITION IN XeBr

Phys. 103(22), 9611 December 1995.Author Institution: Department of Chemistry, MIT; Department of Chemistry, Vanderbilt UniversityThe B(1/22P3/2)X(1/22Σ+B(1/2^{2}P_{3/2}) \rightarrow X(1/2^{2}\Sigma^{+}) transition in XeBr was recorded in high resolution, using a CCD array detector to record spectra from Tesla discharge sources containing isotopically pure 136^{136}Xe with 81Br2^{81}Br_{2} or 79Br2ab^{79}Br_{2}^{ab}. The high signal/noise capabilities of the detector permitted the measurement of discrete vibrational structure in this system, which has normally been treated as a purely bound-free transition. The assingments comprised 119 vVv^{\prime\prime}-V^{\prime\prime} bands for 136Xe81Br^{136}Xe_{81}Br and 86 for 136Xe79Br^{136}Xe_{79}Br, spanning vv^{\prime\prime}=0.33 and vv^{\prime\prime}=0.16. The van der Waals ground state was analyzed through fits to the customary polynomials and to near-dissociation expansions. Franck-Condon calculations were used to locate the X-state potential on the internuclear axis relative to the BB state, which was modeled as Rittner potential. The following fundamental spectroscopic constants (units cm1cm^{-1} for 136Xe81Br^{136}Xe_{81}Br) were obtained from the analysis: Te=35863.2,ωe=135.72,ωexe=0.32,ωe=25.7,ωexe=0.62T^{\prime}_{e} = 35 863.2, \omega^{\prime}_{e} = 135.72, \omega_{e}x^{\prime}_{e}=0.32, \omega^{\prime\prime}_{e} = 25.7, \omega_{e}x^{\prime}_{e}= 0.62. The ground state has dissociation energy De=254±2D^{\prime\prime}_{e} = 254 \pm 2 cm 1^{-1} and supports 24 bound vibrational levels

    Automated inference of full passenger journeys using fare-transaction and vehicle-location data

    Thesis (M.C.P.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Urban Studies and Planning; and, (S.M. in Transportation)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2012.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (p. 147-155).Urban public transport providers have historically planned and managed their networks and services with limited knowledge of their customers' travel patterns. While ticket gates and bus fareboxes yield counts of passenger activity in specific stations and vehicles, the relationships between these transactions-the origins, interchanges, and destinations of individual passengers-have typically been acquired only through costly and therefore small and infrequent rider surveys. Building upon recent work on the utilization of automated fare-collection and vehicle-location systems for passenger-behavior analysis, this thesis presents methods for inferring the full journeys of all riders on a large public transport network. Using complete daily sets of data from London's Oyster farecard and iBus vehicle-location system, boarding and alighting times and locations are inferred for individual bus passengers, interchanges are inferred between passenger trips of various public modes, and full-journey origin-interchange-destination matrices are constructed, which include the estimated flows of non-farecard passengers. The outputs are validated against surveys and traditional origin-destination matrices, and the software implementation demonstrates that the procedure is efficient enough to be performed daily, enabling transport providers to observe travel behavior on all services at all times.by Jason B.

    Isolation and structure elucidation of satosporin A and B

    No full text
    Satosporins A and B, two novel glucosylated polyketides, were isolated from the actinomycete Kitasatospora griseolaMF730-N6. The polyketides possess an unprecedented tricyclic ring system that was fully characterized using a combination of spectroscopic analyses and computational calculations. Satosporin A was quantitatively converted into its aglycon homologue, satosporin C, using a β-glucosidase. The determination of the absolute stereochemistry was achieved using solution TDDFT/ECD calculations and chemical derivatization methods
