The random set approach to nontraditional measurements is rigorously Bayesian
No full textIn several previous publications the first author has proposed a "generalized likelihood function" (GLF) approach for processing nontraditional measurements such as attributes, features, natural-language statements, and inference rules. The GLF approach is based on random set "generalized measurement models" for nontraditional measurements. GLFs are not conventional likelihood functions, since they are not density functions and their integrals are usually infinite, rather than equal to 1. For this reason, it has been unclear whether or not the GLF approach is fully rigorous from a strict Bayesian point of view. In a recent paper, the first author demonstrated that the GLF of a specific type of nontraditional measurement - quantized measurements - is rigorously Bayesian. In this paper we show that this result can be generalized to arbitrary nontraditional measurements, thus removing any doubt that the GLF approach is rigorously Bayesian. © 2012 Copyright Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)
Benchmark studies of the gyro-Landau-fluid code and gyro-kinetic codes on kinetic ballooning modes
No full textA Gyro-Landau-Fluid (GLF) 3 + 1 model has been recently implemented in BOUT++ framework, which contains full Finite-Larmor-Radius effects, Landau damping, and toroidal resonance [Ma et al., Phys. Plasmas 22, 055903 (2015)]. A linear global beta scan has been conducted using the JET-like circular equilibria (cbm18 series), showing that the unstable modes are kinetic ballooning modes (KBMs). In this work, we use the GYRO code, which is a gyrokinetic continuum code widely used for simulation of the plasma microturbulence, to benchmark with GLF 3+1 code on KBMs. To verify our code on the KBM case, we first perform the beta scan based on "Cyclone base case parameter set." We find that the growth rate is almost the same for two codes, and the KBM mode is further destabilized as beta increases. For JET-like global circular equilibria, as the modes localize in peak pressure gradient region, a linear local beta scan using the same set of equilibria has been performed at this position for comparison. With the drift kinetic electron module in the GYRO code by including small electron-electron collision to damp electron modes, GYRO generated mode structures and parity suggest that they are kinetic ballooning modes, and the growth rate is comparable to the GLF results. However, a radial scan of the pedestal for a particular set of cbm18 equilibria, using GYRO code, shows different trends for the low-n and high-n modes. The low-n modes show that the linear growth rate peaks at peak pressure gradient position as GLF results. However, for high-n modes, the growth rate of the most unstable mode shifts outward to the bottom of pedestal and the real frequency of what was originally the KBMs in ion diamagnetic drift direction steadily approaches and crosses over to the electron diamagnetic drift direction.

Assessment of geographical based load forecast approach in distribution planning
No full textPrior to the year 2007, Eskom Distribution followed a method of load forecasting (now referred to as legacy method in this report) that was based on collecting customer applications, historical load trending, and relied on the planner’s knowledge of the area to a large extent. It was based in a conventional Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. On seeking to improve its load forecasting approach, the utility adopted a technique that was based on spatial forecasting. This new technique was called a geographical based load forecasting (GLF) technique which was performed by using a custom based tool, called PowerGLF. The aim of this research was to assess any improvements (or lack thereof) that were brought about by adopting the GLF method as compared to the legacy method that was used previously. The hypothesis to be tested was declared as: “The use of the GLF method that was introduced to Eskom Distribution Planning brings about the improvement on the planning process of infrastructure that is adequate, reliable and economic, when compared to the legacy method that was used before it.” To carry out this assessment, a case study method was followed. Real network studies that were compiled in 2006 and 2007 were used. These network studies were based on GLF method and the legacy method. The load forecasts from the case studies were evaluated on forecast accuracy, how they influenced the planning of adequate, reliable and economic (ARE) network infrastructure and their impact on the procurement and construction of the network infrastructure (which represent the actual utility expenditure on infrastructure). The statistical comparative analysis was done. The research results revealed that the legacy method was more accurate than the GLF method in both the case studies that were evaluated. However, regarding the ability of a load forecast method to support the planning process, the GLF method showed to be supporting the planning of adequate, reliable and economic infrastructure better than the legacy method. It was found that the forecast error for the GLF and legacy method do not affect the utility infrastructure procurement and construction. Based on the test results, the study reached a conclusion that the use of the GLF method that was introduced to Eskom Distribution Planning brings about the improvement in the planning process of infrastructure that is adequate, economic and reliable when compared to the legacy method that was used before it. The author wishes to express that the results of this study must not be taken as a generic conclusive finding regarding the evaluated load forecasting methods; they are applicable to the tested case studies. To get to a general conclusive result, more case studies would need to be carried out where clear and consistent evidence on performance of these load forecasting methods will be seen. The findings of this study can be used as part of a larger sample if such a larger population of case studies was to be evaluated. The methodology followed in this research can be repeated and followed when similar assessments are done in future
Queer Memory in (re)constituting the trans lesbian 1970s in the UK
No full textTrans life, experiences and bodies raise important challenges for the constitution of queer memories. Working from archive sources and a conversation between the author and writer Roz Kaveney, this chapter approaches problems in (re)constituting queer memories of trans lesbian lives, political organising and desires in 1970s Britain. Studying materials and memories from the London Gay Liberation Front’s Transsexual, Transvestite and Drag Queen Group (GLF TS/TV Group) and the publication Lesbians Come Together, I consider the desires and politics articulated by trans lesbians, and the intersection of trans and lesbian sociality in the early ‘70s.
The GLF TS/TV group provide a glimpse into the possibilities for trans liberation at the time, articulating a counter-narrative to psychiatry and individual narratives of trans people from the period that have tended to focus on surgery and social transition. The counter-narrative of trans lesbians provides the opportunity to address the effects of legal and illegal drugs, healthcare, and trauma on the memory of trans lives and experiences.
I detail how accounts and oral histories of the London GLF have framed and denounced the role of trans people in gay liberation. These accounts eschew the social and material conditions of trans lives, encoding cis-normative readings of the gay liberation movement that have lasting implications for trans lives and bodies. The essay considers how trans activists and scholars – including Carol Riddell and the journal Radical Deviance – worked to document and unearth the lives of trans people during the 1970s. I attend to the deeply affective forms of labour demanded in processes of remembering and forgetting, inscribing, un-archiving, and imagining across separations in the archive
Harmony and discord within the English ‘counter-culture’, 1965-1975, with particular reference to the ‘rock operas’ Hair, Godspell, Tommy and Jesus Christ Superstar
No full textPhDThis thesis considers the discrete, historically-specific theatrical and musical sub-genre of ‘Rock Opera’ as a lens through which to examine the cultural, political and social changes that are widely assumed to have characterised ‘The Sixties’ in Britain. The musical and dramatic texts, creation and production of Hair (1967), Tommy (1969), Godspell (1971), Jesus Christ Superstar (1970) and other neglected ‘Rock Operas’ of the period are analysed. Their great popularity with ‘mainstream’ audiences is considered and contrasted with the overwhelmingly negative and often internally contradictory reaction towards them from the English ‘counter-culture’. This examination offers new insights into both the ‘counter-culture’ and the ‘mainstream’ against which it claimed to define and differentiate itself.
The four ‘Rock Operas’, two of which are based upon Christian scriptures, are considered as narratives of spiritual quest. The relationship between the often controversial quests for re-defined forms of faith and the apparently precipitous ‘secularization’ and ‘de-Christianization’ of British society during the 1960s and 1970s is considered.
The thesis therefore analyses the ‘Rock Operas’ as significant, enlightening prisms through which to view many of the profound societal debates – over ‘faith’ and ‘belief’ in the widest senses, sexuality, the Vietnam war, generational conflict, drugs and ‘spiritual enlightenment’, and race – which were, to some considerable extent, elevated onto the national, political agenda by the activities of the broadly-defined ‘counter-culture’. It considers subsequent representations of the ‘counter-culture’ as the root of a contested but enduring popular legacy of ‘The Sixties' as a period of profound cultural change
EXTRAGALACTIC HIGH-ENERGY TRANSIENTS: EVENT RATE DENSITIES AND LUMINOSITY FUNCTIONS
No full textSeveral types of extragalactic high-energy transients have been discovered, which include high-luminosity and low-luminosity long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), short-duration GRBs, supernova shock breakouts (SBOs), and tidal disruption events (TDEs) without or with an associated relativistic jet. In this paper, we apply a unified method to systematically study the redshift-dependent event rate densities and the global luminosity functions (GLFs; ignoring redshift evolution) of these transients. We introduce some empirical formulae for the redshift-dependent event rate densities for different types of transients. and derive the local specific event rate density, which also represents its GLF. Long GRBs (LGRBs) have a large enough sample to reveal features in the GLF, which is best charaterized as a triple power law (PL). All the other transients are consistent with having a single-power-law (SPL) LF. The total event rate density depends on the minimum luminosity, and we obtain the following values in units of Gpc(-3) yr(-1): 0.8(-0.1)(+0.1) for high-luminosity LGRBs above 10(50) erg s(-1); 164(-65)(+98) for low-luminosity LGRBs above 5 x 10(46) erg s(-1); 1.3(-0.3)(+0.4), 1.2(-0.3)(+0.4), and 3.3(-0.8)(+1.0) above 10(50) erg s(-1) for short GRBs with three different merger delay models (Gaussian, lognormal, and PL); 1.9(-1.2)(+2.4) x 10(4) above 10(44) erg s(-1) for SBOs, 4.8(-2.1)(+3.2) x 10(2) for normal TDEs above 10(44) erg s(-1); and 0.03(0.02)(+0.04) above 10(48) erg s(-1) for TDE jets as discovered by Swift. Intriguingly, the GLFs of different kinds of transients, which cover over 12 orders of magnitude, are consistent with an SPL with an index of - 1.6.National Basic Research Program (973 Program) of China [2014CB845800]; NSFC [11273005]; SRFDP [20120001110064]; China Scholarship ProgramSCI(E)[email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]
Decision making factors in Chinese foreign policy concerning Korea (1950) and Vietnam (1965-66): the role and significance of two former vassal states
No full textThis work examins three areas of contributory factors that shaped the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) response towards two international crises in regions which traditionally fell within the Chinese sphere of influence : the Korean War (1950) and the American War in Vietnam (1965-66). It analyzes and isolate2 the domestic and international political aspects which shaped the foreign policy towards the two conflicts including the conflict between Mao Tse-tung and others in the CCP over China's socialist construction; it also considers the specific relations with the two former vassal states. Once decision-making factors are identified, the formulation of the foreign policy output in both cases is described. A broader historical perspective is provided through a discussion of imperial Chinese attitudes towards Korea and Vietnam and through an insight into the effects of western and Japanese encroachments in the two areas. The study uses the two periods to gauge the success achieved by a newly independent China's efforts towards gaining international status, creating spheres of influence and avoiding domination by the Americans or the Soviets over the first decade and a half of the People's Republic's existence. The significance of the two former vassals is placed in this context. The study concludes that although decision-making with regard to the Vietnam conflict was freer from foreign influence than in the case of the Korean War, the improvement in Chinese international standing and effectiveness in international politics was nominal, although a better use of deterrents and diplomatic communications can be observed
Engineering Zymomonas mobilis for the production of biofuels and other value-added products
No full textZymomonas mobilis is a promising organism for lignocellulosic biofuel production as it can efficiently produce ethanol from simple sugars using unique metabolic pathways. Z. mobilis displays what is known as the “uncoupled growth” phenomenon, meaning cells will rapidly convert sugars to ethanol regardless of their energy requirements for growth. This makes Z. mobilis attractive not only for ethanol production, but for alternative product synthesis as well.
One limitation of Z. mobilis for cellulosic ethanol production is that this organism cannot natively ferment the pentose sugars, like xylose and arabinose, which are present in lignocellulosic hydrolysates. While it has been engineered to do so, the fermentation rates of these sugars are still extremely low. In this work, we have investigated sugar transport as a possible bottleneck in the fermentation of xylose by Z. mobilis. We showed that transport limits xylose fermentations in this organism, but only when the starting sugar concentration is high. To discern additional bottlenecks in pentose fermentations by Z. mobilis, we then used adaptation and high-throughput sequencing to pinpoint genetic mutations responsible for improved growth phenotypes on these sugars. We found that the transport of both xylose and arabinose through the native sugar transporter, Glf, limits pentose fermentations in Z. mobilis, thereby confirming our previous results. We also found that mutations in the AddB protein increase plasmid stability and can reduce cellular aggregation in these strains. Consistent with previous research, we found that reduced xylitol production improves xylose fermentations in Z. mobilis. We also found that increased transketolase activity and reduced glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity improve arabinose fermentations in Z. mobilis.
In order for Z. mobilis to prosper as an industrial host for alternative product synthesis, the genetic techniques utilized in this organism must be improved. Toward this goal, we have adapted the λ Red recombinase system for use in Z. mobilis. We have shown that this system increases the frequency of double crossover events for the purpose of constructing gene knockouts in the strain. We have also constructed an expression system for the type II CRISPR/CRISPR-associated (Cas) bacterial adaptive immunity system in Z. mobilis. We have shown that the Cas9 nuclease can be directed by small RNAs to target the Z. mobilis genome for the purpose of genome editing, and that this system can also likely be used to facilitate gene knockouts in this organism. Finally, toward improving heterologous protein production in Z. mobilis, we have constructed a constitutive promoter library that leads to a range of gene expression levels in the strain. Collectively, our results provide the framework for the development of an industrial production process utilizing Z. mobilis as the microbial host.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2017-08-01The student, Kori Dunn, accepted the attached license on 2015-07-11 at 10:01.The student, Kori Dunn, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2015-07-11 at 10:22.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2015-07-13 at 08:53.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #8414 on 2015-09-29 at 15:06:01Made available in DSpace on 2015-09-29T21:03:13Z (GMT).

The following is. the report of tbe
Department of Agriculture, Climate
and Crop Bulletin of the Weather
Bureau, California suction, for tbe week
ending October 30: ...
The temperature tbls week baa been
normal, In Southern California, where
It haa been slightly above, Light rain
has (alien In most sections, but the precipitation In the extreme south was too
light to be of benefit to young grain.
Unthroshod grain, hay In the fields and
some late grapes were damaged by the
rain, but the loss will be trifling as compared with tbe benefit resulting toearly
grain and pasturage. Farmers are
plowing and seeding, and preparations
aro being made in all sections for a.
large acreage of grain, principally of
wheat and oats. Volunteer grain has
made a good start, and pasturage is
aald to be more abundant than for
many years at this season. The second crop of raisins Is largely cured and
under shelter. Dried fruits are moving
eastward in large quantities. Tbe first
ot oranges for the season was shipped
from Porterville Oct. 30; the crop Is ripening rapidly, and the season is much
earlier than usual; the fruit Is reported
to lie of excellent quality, and the yield
at least oqual to last season's. Orange
shipments from Northern California
will commence about the 15th. Olive-
are being gathered aud pickled; tbe
quality is good and yield fair. Orehard-
ists hurecommenced pruning. Sugar
beets are buing gathered.
