This species is similar to D. postincisa (Moore, 1879) from Bengal (Fig. 16) in wing patterns, both have white forewings with a dark postmedial line, but D. melanoma can be separated from the latter by anal angle of forewing having a short clear-cut dark line. In male genitalia, D. melanoma resembles D. blacklinea, but can be distinguished from the latter by stronger bifid uncus, wider but shorter valve, and a smaller cornuti. Material examined.

This species is transferred into the genus Daplasa from Euproctis for the first time, based on its venation and male genital characters. The postmedial line of forewings is slightly curved in Sichuan specimen, but it is straight in types. This is considered as intraspecific variation due to geographical isolation. The male genitalia of D. melanoma from Sichuan is illustrated as Fig. 20.Published as part of Pang, Xing-Yan, Rindoš, Michal, Kishida, Yasunori & Wang, Hou-Shuai, 2019, Review of the genus Daplasa Moore (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Lymantriinae) from China, with description of new species, pp. 577-585 in Zootaxa 4695 (6) on page 582, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4695.6.8, http://zenodo.org/record/354274

Les Pieces de KISHIDA Kunio
No full textDans l'histoire litteraire japonaise, KISHIDA Kunio (1890-1954) a ete probablement le premier dramaturge japonais a ecrire des pieces de style occidental. Avant lui, mis a part quelques pieces experimentales, presque toutes les pieces japonaises etaient semblables au modele du "kabuki". Autrement dit, le public n'aimais que les spectacles ravis-sants et emprunts de raffinement. KISHIDA Kunio est ne dans une famille d'anciens bushis de Kishuhan (la classe des chevaliers de grand domaine, apparentee aux Tokugawa). Son pere etait officier d'artillerie et voulait fermement que son fils devienne egalement officier. C'est pourquoi a l'age de 16 ans, KISHIDA entra a l'ecole militaire sur l' ordre de son pere. Pendant quelques annees, il apprit le francais et lu beaucoup d' oeuvres litteraires francaises. Toutefois, il abandonna ses etudes a l' ecole militaire superieure et devint etudiant a la faculte des lettres de l'universite de Tokyo puis son pere le chassa de la maison et KISHIDA Kunio du desormais travailler pour se nourir et gagner sa vie. En 1919, a Yokohama, il prit un bateau francais pour aller a Paris mais il ne put s'y rendre directement car il devait travailler en route. Il fit done escale a Hongkong a Haiphong. Il arriva enfin a Paris en 1920 et rendit visite a Jacques COPEAU dont il devait suivre les cours de son Ecole de Theatre du Vieux Colombier. En 1922, recevant la nouvelle de la mort de son pere, il decida de quitter la France pour retourner chez lui, mais en realite il ne rentra au Japon qu'en 1923. La meme annee, il publia sa premiere piece "Le vieux jouet" qui connut rapidement le succes, puis ensuite il ecrivit une deuxieme piece: "Un automne au Tyrol". Par ces deux oeuvres, il fut reconnu comme dramaturge anti-realiste. Surtout "Un automne au Tyrol" constitue un des chefs-d'oeuvre de cet ecrivain. Dans un petit hotel du Tyrol, un japonais et une europeenne se rencontrent et se quittent sans amour et sans haine. Leur seul point commun est qu'ils sont deracines de leur pays natal. Les dialogues nous montrent cet esprit subtil fait de raffinement. C'est en 1927 qu'il publia une piece intitulee "Le journal des feuilles mortes" et neuf ans plus tard, un roman exactement le meme titre. Dans son pays natal, le Japon, il reussit comme dramaturge et fut toujours tres fidere a l'esprit de ses premiers oeuvres.3KJ00004274457論文Articledepartmental bulletin pape
Neighborhood-Sheaf Semantics for First-Order Modal Logic
No full textAbstractThis paper extends neighborhood semantics for propositional modal logic to the first-order case, by unifying topological-sheaf semantics (in [Awodey, S. and K. Kishida, Topology and modality: the topological interpretation of first-order modal logic, Review of Symbolic Logic 1 (2008), pp. 146–66]) for first-order S4 and Kripke-sheaf semantics (see [Goldblatt, R., “Topoi: The Categorial Analysis of Logic”, North-Holland, Amsterdam and New York, 1979] and [Gabbay, D. M., V. Shehtman and D. Skvortsov, “Quantification in Nonclassical Logic”, Volume 1, Elsevier, Oxford, 2009], just for instance) for quantified K. It will be shown how to take a sheaf-like structure over a neighborhood frame, and the resulting semantics properly generalizes the two preceding sheaf semantics; it has a weaker modal logic (in which the rule N fails) sound and complete, while accommodating classical, full first-order logic with equality and function symbols

MeSH term explosion and author rank improve expert recommendations
No full textInformation overload is an often-cited phenomenon that reduces the productivity, efficiency and efficacy of scientists. One challenge for scientists is to find appropriate collaborators in their research. The literature describes various solutions to the problem of expertise location, but most current approaches do not appear to be very suitable for expert recommendations in biomedical research. In this study, we present the development and initial evaluation of a vector space model-based algorithm to calculate researcher similarity using four inputs: 1) MeSH terms of publications; 2) MeSH terms and author rank; 3) exploded MeSH terms; and 4) exploded MeSH terms and author rank. We developed and evaluated the algorithm using a data set of 17,525 authors and their 22,542 papers. On average, our algorithms correctly predicted 2.5 of the top 5/10 coauthors of individual scientists. Exploded MeSH and author rank outperformed all other algorithms in accuracy, followed closely by MeSH and author rank. Our results show that the accuracy of MeSH term-based matching can be enhanced with other metadata such as author rank
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Generalized Topological Semantics for First-Order Modal Logic
No full textThis dissertation provides a new semantics for first-order modal logic. It is philosophicallymotivated by the epistemic reading of modal operators and, in particular, three desiderata in the analysis of epistemic modalities.(i) The semantic modelling of epistemic modalities, in particular verifiability and falsifiability, cannot be properly achieved by Kripke's relational notion of accessibility. It requires instead a more general, topological notion of accessibility.(ii) Also, the epistemic reading of modal operators seems to require that we combine modal logic with fully classical first-order logic. For this purpose, however, Kripke's semantics for quantified modal logic is inadequate; its logic is free logic as opposed to classical logic.(iii) More importantly, Kripke's semantics comes with a restriction that is too strong to let us semantically express, for instance, that the identity of Hesperus and Phosphorus, even if metaphysically necessary, can still be a matter of epistemic discovery.To provide a semantics that accommodates the three desiderata, I show, on the one hand, howthe desideratum (i) can be achieved with topological semantics, and more generally neighborhood semantics, for propositional modal logic. On the other hand, to achieve (ii) and (iii), it turns out that David Lewis's counterpart theory is helpful at least technically. Even though Lewis's ownformulation is too liberal---in contrast to Kripke's being too restrictive---to achieve our goals, this dissertation provides a unification of the two frameworks, Kripke's and Lewis's. Through a series of both formal and conceptual comparisons of their ontologies and semantic ideas, it is shown that structures called sheaves are needed to unify the ideas and achieve the desiderata (ii) and (iii). In the end, I define a category of sheaves over a neighborhood frame with certain properties, and show that it provides a semantics that naturally unifies neighborhood semantics for propositional modal logic, on the one hand, and semantics for first-order logic on the other. Completeness theorems are proved
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
