Oral history interview with Ron Schaefer
No full textRonald Schaefer, a 1972 graduate of Oklahoma State University, recalls his youth in Marshall, Oklahoma, the hometown of Dr. Angie Debo, historian and author who focused on the mistreatment of Native Americans throughout history. He shares memories and history of Marshall, as well as his memories of Dr. Debo, reading personal notes that she wrote to him and his family, and sharing details of personal conversations. He also reminisced about her effect on those around her.The Remembering Angie Debo Collection is a series of interviews conducted with friends and supporters of Angie Debo, an American historian

FiFoSiM - an integrated tax benefit microsimulation and CGE model for Germany
No full textThis paper describes FiFoSiM, the integrated tax benefit microsimulation and computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the Center of Public Economics at the University of Cologne. FiFoSiM consists of three main parts. The first part is a static tax benefit microsimulation module. The second part adds a behavioural component to the model; an econometrically estimated labour supply model. The third module is a CGE model which allows the user of FiFoSiM to assess the global economic effects of policy measures. Two specific features distinguish FiFoSiM from other tax benefit models: First, the simultaneous use of two databases for the tax benefit module and second, the linkage of the tax benefit model to a CGE model.FiFoSiM; microsimulation; CGE
Nailfold capillaroscopy pattern recognition using texture analysis
No full textNailfold capillaroscopy (NC) is a non-invasive imaging technique employed to assess the condition of blood capillaries in the nailfold. It is particularly useful for early detection of scleroderma spectrum disorders and evaluation of Raynaud's phenomenon. While diagnosis based on NC is typically performed by manual inspection, computerised nailfold capillaroscopy can help to reduce the inherent ambiguity present in human judgement while greatly reducing the time for diagnosis. Diagnosis of NC images involves the recognition of early, active and late patterns, also known as NC patterns or scleroderma (SD) patterns, in the images. In this paper, we propose a holistic method to classify NC images in these well known patterns. In particular, we employ texture analysis to describe the underlying patterns, coupled with a classifier to first identify patterns in fingers, and then, through a voting strategy, reach a decision for a patient. Experimental results on a set of NC images with known ground truth demonstrate the efficacy of our approach
Breakdown of Traditional Many-Body Theories for Correlated Electrons
No full textStarting from the (Hubbard) model of an atom, we demonstrate that the uniqueness of the mapping from the interacting to the noninteracting Green function, G -> G(0), is strongly violated, by providing numerous explicit examples of different G(0) leading to the same physical G. We argue that there are indeed infinitely many such G(0), with numerous crossings with the physical solution. We show that this rich functional structure is directly related to the divergence of certain classes of (irreducible vertex) diagrams, with important consequences for traditional many-body physics based on diagrammatic expansions. Physically, we ascribe the onset of these highly nonperturbative manifestations to the progressive suppression of the charge susceptibility induced by the formation of local magnetic moments and/or resonating valence bond (RVB) states in strongly correlated electron systems
Paul Schaefer Collection, 1870-1997
No full textThe Paul Schaefer collection consists of ca. 62 cu ft of correspondence, maps, litigation manuscripts, legislative documents, pamphlets, circulars, published materials, photographic material, audio recordings, video recordings, and art prints. The collection is in good condition, however some of the material exhibits water or insect damage. The dates within the collection range from 1870 to1997, with the bulk of the collection falling between 1940 and 1997. This collection documents Schaefer\u27s lengthy career as an environmental grass roots organizer and author, his work in home building and historic restoration projects, and his family life.https://digitalworks.union.edu/arl_findingaids/1036/thumbnail.jp
