Pairwise embedding for event coreference resolution
No full textEvent coreference resolution is an important part in information extraction research and natural language understanding areas. Recently, the pre-trained language models emerging in modern Natural Language Processing (NLP) community provide a new perspective of solving classical NLP tasks. This thesis presents a novel, extensible, and error-tolerant model for within-document event coreference resolution. The model takes events from the same document pair wisely and extracts the features from both events. These features include but are not limited to sentence embeddings, trigger embeddings, and argument type representations. The extracted features are then used to fine-tune a pre-trained language model, BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers), to perform event coreference resolution. The coreference results are evaluated by different metrics including B^3, MUC, and CEAF. Experimental results show that our pro-posed model outperforms baseline models with improvements of 0.009 on B^3 and 0.035 on MUC over the state-of-the-art models.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2022-05-01The student, Yanda Hu, accepted the attached license on 2020-05-08 at 18:16.The student, Yanda Hu, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2020-05-08 at 18:18.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2020-05-12 at 11:38.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #15305 on 2020-08-25 at 17:44:18Made available in DSpace on 2020-08-27T00:51:32Z (GMT).

Analysis of Elbow, Silhouette, Davies-Bouldin, Calinski-Harabasz, and Rand-Index Evaluation on K-Means Algorithm for Classifying Flood-Affected Areas in Jakarta
No full textJakarta is the capital city of Indonesia, which has a high population density, and is an area that is frequently hit by floods. This study aims to determine the classification of flood-affected areas in Jakarta between severe, moderate, and low. Design/method/approach: The study was conducted using the elbow, Silhouette, Davidson-Bouldin, and Calinski-Harabasz methods on the K-means algorithm, as well as the Rand method. index for evaluation. Grouping with 3 and 6 groups is the best grouping value based on Calinski-Harabasz. By using the davies bouldin index from the observations, the K value with a value of 6 has the smallest Davies-Bouldin value with a value of 0.2737. By using sillhoute, the experimental results obtained the best values sequentially, namely K=2, K=3, and K=6 with silhouette values of 0.866, 0.854, and 0.803. In this experiment, based on the elbow method, it was found that the best K value was K=3. This was obtained because it was based on observations on the appearance of the SSE data compared to the value of K. In the graph above, it can be seen that the largest decrease in data occurred at K=3 and after this decrease, the decline began to slope. The rand index is a method used to compare several cluster methods. If the value is >= 90 it is a very good result, if the value is in the range 80 to 90 it identifies a good index, whereas if it is below 80 it indicates a bad index. The results show that cluster three is verified as the best cluster with a value of 1, followed by a second alternative with cluster 2 of 0.9182. From several validation and evaluation methods it can be concluded that the best grouping can be done using 3 clusters. The results of the study yielded a value of 75.4% in low areas, 21.1% in moderate areas, and 3.5% in severe areas.Jakarta merupakan ibu kota Indonesia yang memiliki kepadatan penduduk yang tinggi, dan merupakan daerah yang sering dilanda banjir. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui klasifikasi daerah yang terkena banjir di Jakarta antara parah, sedang, dan rendah. Desain/metode/pendekatan: Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode siku, Silhouette, Davidson-Bouldin, dan Calinski-Harabasz pada algoritma K-means, serta metode Rand. indeks untuk evaluasi. Pengelompokan dengan kelompok 3 dan 6 merupakan nilai pengelompokan terbaik berdasarkan Calinski-Harabasz. Dengan menggunakan indeks davies bouldin hasil pengamatan, nilai K dengan nilai 6 memiliki nilai Davies-Bouldin terkecil dengan nilai 0,2737. Dengan menggunakan sillhoute, hasil percobaan diperoleh nilai terbaik secara berurutan yaitu K=2, K=3, dan K=6 dengan nilai siluet 0,866, 0,854, dan 0,803. Pada percobaan ini, berdasarkan metode siku didapatkan bahwa nilai K terbaik adalah K=3. Hal ini diperoleh karena berdasarkan pengamatan terhadap kemunculan data SSE dibandingkan dengan nilai K. Pada grafik di atas terlihat bahwa penurunan data terbesar terjadi pada K=3 dan setelah penurunan tersebut terjadi penurunan mulai melandai. Indeks rand adalah metode yang digunakan untuk membandingkan beberapa metode cluster. Jika nilainya >= 90 merupakan hasil yang sangat baik, jika nilainya berada pada rentang 80 sampai dengan 90 menunjukkan indeks yang baik, sedangkan jika dibawah 80 menunjukkan indeks yang buruk. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa cluster tiga terverifikasi sebagai cluster terbaik dengan nilai 1, disusul alternatif kedua dengan cluster 2 sebesar 0,9182. Dari beberapa metode validasi dan evaluasi dapat disimpulkan bahwa pengelompokan terbaik dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan 3 cluster. Hasil penelitian menghasilkan nilai 75,4% pada daerah rendah, 21,1% pada daerah sedang, dan 3,5% pada daerah berat

No full textPT. Vadhana International is a company engaged in construction services, consulting, vehicle and heavy equipment rental. Over time and the growing needs of the industrial world, PT. Vadhana International makes creative and innovative steps and offers other related services. So this company needs internet network security to maintain the validity and integrity of data at the company. But on network security at PT. Vadhana International still has weaknesses in the server network if it is not protected and maintained properly it will cause a very big threat lurking such as Phishing, Sniffing, Hacking, Cracking, Denial of Service Attack, Malcio and damage to server systems and even loss of valuable assets , to overcome the existing problems, it is necessary to design a system to prevent attacks in the form of DDoS so that the server network is safer and more secure. Therefore the author intends to make a thesis proposal entitled "Designing a SNORT-based DDoS attack prevention system on PT. Vadhana International”. This is expected to be useful and reduce existing problems on the server network for time efficiency and can present information that is safer, faster and more precise, makes it easier for companies to monitor and detect if an attack occurs, and improves security on the server network
Governance as a Means of Sinicization: …… Political Justice in China and Criticism of the “Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Regulations on Elimination of Extremism”……
No full textAccording to Professor Ken Suzuki, in China “law and politics are indivisible,” and “the Chinese Communist Party is above the law, with the all-powerful party-state functioning as an extralegal entity.” In the first half of the paper, the author writes that China today is under dictatorial one-party rule, and with the judiciary and judges lacking any independence, it is an anti-constitutional state. As a rule, court decisions are approved on the basis of adherence to party ideology. On this subject, Professor Kazushige Sakaguchi has asserted that in China “the courts are a tool of government authority,” and notes the policy of strengthening this authority during the 1980s yanda (“strike hard”) crackdown. The second half of the paper specifically outlines the provisions of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Anti-Extremism Regulations enacted in October 2018, which harshly restrict the religious and linguistic freedom of the Uyghur minority populace despite Chinaʼs official proclamations that it is a multi-ethnic nation. The regulations are evidently intended to build “one Chinese nation” dominated by the Han ethnic group through Sinicization of minority ethnic groups. This is a clear violation of Article 27 of the International Bill of Human Rights. The author intends to continue closely following legal trends in neighboring countries from a standpoint of respect for justice and equality, freedom and democracy, and the cultural autonomy of ethnic minorities.

IDENTIFIKASI DAN ANALISA RISIKO KECELAKAAN KERJA DENGAN METODE FMEA (FAILURE MODE AND EFFECT ANALYSIS) PADA KELOMPOK TANI PALAS BARU RUMBAI
No full textA preliminary survey conducted by the author in early 2019 was randomly simple on farmer groups in the Village of Maharani District of Rumbai, each of 3 farmers, obtained information that farmers do not know and understand and apply OHS in their work. Farmers do not have work procedures, especially when using various types of agricultural equipment. Therefore this study aims to determine the source of work accident risk. Referring to the JSA AS / NZS: 4360 Risk Management concept and the FMEA method. The research design carried out was observational analytic. Data collection was obtained from observations and in-depth interviews. The results of observations and in-depth interviews with informants revealed five risks at each stage of the agricultural process, in this case, chili planting including the preparation of agricultural land with the risk of injury due to a sharp hoe component RPN 27 is at a Very High-risk level. The risk of itching and water lice at the stage of planting RPN 8 is a high-risk level, the risk of wounds caused by sickles when maintaining RPN 18 is a high-risk level. Being absorbed by chemicals when controlling RPN 18 levels of risk High and risk of being attacked by venomous animals RPN 8 Medium risk level in the harvest process, advice for farmer groups must be more active in raising awareness of OHS, and also for relevant agencies to pay attention to OHS especially health services and agriculture in the working area of Rumbai Bukit District.Survei pendahuluan yang penulis lakukan di awal tahun 2019 secara acak sederhana pada kelompok tani di Kelurahan Maharani Kecamatan Rumbai masing-masing 3 orang petani, diperoleh informasi bahwa petani tidak mengetahui dan memahami serta menerapkan K3 dalam bekerja. Petani tidak memiliki prosedur kerja terutama ketika mengunakan berbagai jenis peralatan pertanian. Oleh sebab itu penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sumber risiko kecelakaan kerja. Mengacu pada konsep Manajemen Risiko JSA AS/NZS: 4360 dan metode FMEA. Desain penelitian yang dilakukan adalah analitik observasional. Pengumpulan data didapatkan dari hasil observasi dan wawancara mendalam. Hasil observasi dan wawancara mendalam dengan informan diketahui lima risiko pada setiap tahapan proses pertanian dalam hal ini penanaman cabe diantaranya penyiapan lahan pertanian dengan risiko luka akibat komponen cangkul yang tajam RPN 27 berada pada tingkat risiko Very High. Risiko gatal dan kutu air pada tahap penanaman RPN 8 tingkat risiko High, risiko luka akibat sabit saat pemeliharaan RPN 18 tingkat risiko High. Terabsorbsi zat kimia saat pengendalian OPT RPN 18 tingkat risiko High dan risiko diserang hewan berbisa RPN 8 tingkat risiko Medium pada proses panen, saran bagi kelompok tani harus lebih aktif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran terhadap K3, dan juga bagi instansi terkait memberikan perhatian pada K3 terutama dinas kesehatan dan pertanian yang berada diwilayah kerja Kecamatan Rumbai Bukit
Sediment transport near ship shoal for coastal restoration in the Louisiana Shelf: a model estimate of the year 2017-2018

The definitive version was published in Liu, H., Xu, K., Ou, Y., Bales, R., Zang, Z., & Xue, Z. G. Sediment transport near ship shoal for coastal restoration in the Louisiana Shelf: a model estimate of the year 2017-2018. Water, 12(8), (2020): 2212, doi:10.3390/w12082212.Ship Shoal has been a high-priority target sand resource for dredging activities to restore the eroding barrier islands in LA, USA. The Caminada and Raccoon Island pits were dredged on and near Ship Shoal, which resulted in a mixed texture environment with the redistribution of cohesive mud and noncohesive sand. However, there is very limited knowledge about the source and transport process of suspended muddy sediments near Ship Shoal. The objective of this study is to apply the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) model to quantify the sediment sources and relative contribution of fluvial sediments with the estuary and shelf sediments delivered to Ship Shoal. The model results showed that suspended mud from the Atchafalaya River can transport and bypass Ship Shoal. Only a minimal amount of suspended mud from the Atchafalaya River can be delivered to Ship Shoal in a one-year time scale. Additionally, suspended mud from the inner shelf could be transported cross Ship Shoal and generate a thin mud layer, which is also considered as the primary sediment source infilling the dredge pits near Ship Shoal. Two hurricanes and one tropical storm during the year 2017–2018 changed the direction of the sediment transport flux near Ship Shoal and contributed to the pit infilling (less than 10% for this specific period). Our model also captured that the bottom sediment concentration in the Raccoon Island pit was relatively higher than the one in Caminada in the same period. Suspended mud sediment from the river, inner shelf, and bay can bypass or transport and deposit in the Caminada pit and Raccoon Island pit, which showed that the Caminada pit and Raccoon Island pits would not be considered as a renewable borrow area for future sand dredging activities for coastal restoration.Funding for this study was provided by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Coastal Marine Institute, Washington DC, under Cooperative Agreement Numbers M16AC00018 and M17AC00019
Risk Factors for Graft-Versus-Host Disease After Transplantation of Hematopoietic Stem Cells from Unrelated Donors in the China Marrow Donor Program
No full textBackground: We identified risk factors for acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD and cGVHD, respectively) in recipients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from unrelated donors in the China Marrow Donor Program (CMDP). Material/Methods: We analyzed follow-up clinical information from 1824 patients who underwent HSCT between 2001 and 2010. Results: The incidence of aGVHD and cGVHD after transplantation was 49.29% and 27.3%, respectively. aGVHD incidence decreased as HLA matching increased (p<0.001). Incidence of aGVHD and cGVHD was higher in 2 HLA-A locus donor/recipient groups (02: 01/02: 06 and 02: 01/02: 07; p <= 0.022). aGVHD incidence was associated with patient age, absence of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) pretreatment, and disease status (p <= 0.040). aGVHD appeared to be a risk factor for cGVHD, and total body irradiation (TBI) was also associated with cGVHD. Patients with cGVHD after transplantation had a higher survival rate than patients without cGVHD (p<0.001), which may be due to reduced relapse rates. Survival was also associated with ATG prophylaxis and disease status. Conclusions: The incidence of GVHD after HSCT from unrelated donors in the Chinese population is similar to the results reported from other countries. A high degree of HLA matching, a conditioning regimen without TBI, and the use of ATG may reduce the incidence of aGVHD.SCI(E)ARTICLE384-4012
Party autonomy vs. case management in international arbitration
No full textThe author discusses the relationship between two rules in international arbitration: party autonomy, on the one hand, and the principle whereby an arbitrator has a duty to act as a good case manager and to conduct the arbitration fairly, expeditiously and without unnecessary costs on the other. Whereas the first rule is virtually universal, the second has been clearly spelt out in the English Arbitration Act 1996, for the first time. However, it is quickly spreading as a consequence of the recent reform of the ICC Rules (2012) and their considerable influence on international arbitral practice. There is a tension between these principles. This is so especially in those jurisdictions in which the parties may agree on procedural arrangements without consulting the arbitrators, even in case the arbitral tribunal has already been constituted. Received wisdom has it, especially in England, that an experienced arbitrator has the skills, the charisma and the authority required to let the parties know that their procedural arrangement, agreed as it may have been, is neither conducive nor sound. The author's answer is that the raising of eyebrows by an arbitrator does not, by far, attract the same consequences in all jurisdictions. The solution should not be looked for in arbitral diplomacy but in the law; the time has come to accept that arbitrators must be entitled to depart from unsound procedural agreements when it is right to do so; this is, of course, an exception to be resorted to most sparingly and to be applied only in those cases in which abiding by an agreed arrangement on a matter of procedure prevents the arbitrators from correctly carrying out their duties and would produce a perverse result. The position of the law at the place of arbitration is one of the points to be considered before using such an exception, especially in UNCITRAL Model Law jurisdictions, in which the disregard by the arbitral tribunal of a party agreement on procedure is a ground on which an award may be set aside.Yazar, uluslararası tahkimin iki ilkesi arasındaki ilişkiyi tartışmaktadır: Bir yanda irade muhtariyeti diğer yanda ise hakemin basiretli bir dava yöneticisi olarak tahkim yargılamasını adil, hızlı ve gereksiz masraflara yol açmayacak şekilde yürütmesi yükümlülüğünü konu edinen ilke. İlk ilke hemen hemen evrensel olmakla birlikte, ikinci ilke açık bir şekilde ilk defa 1996 tarihli İngiliz Tahkim Kanunu’nda ifade edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, ICC Kuralları’nın (2012) son reformu ve Kurallar’ın, uluslararası tahkim uygulamasındaki büyük önemi sonucunda hızla yayılmaktadır. Bu ilkeler arasında bir etkileşim söz konusudur. Söz konusu etkileşim, özellikle hakem heyetinin halihazırda kurulmuş olduğu durumlarda dahi tarafların, hakemlere danışmaksızın usulî düzenlemeler konusunda anlaşmalarını mümkün kılan ülke hukuklarında ön plana çıkmaktadır. Özellikle İngiltere’de, deneyimli bir hakemin, taraflara üzerinde hemfikir oldukları usulî anlaşmanın ne yol gösterici ne de makul olduğunu bildirme konusunda gereken beceriye, karizmaya ve yetkiye sahip olduğunu söylemek genel olarak mümkün gözükmektedir. Yazarın görüşüne göre hakemin tarafların anlaşmasını dikkate almamasının, tüm ülke hukuklarında aynı sonucu doğurduğunu söylemek mümkün gözükme- mektedir. Çözüm, tahkim diplomasisinde değil; hukukta aranmalıdır; gerekli olduğu takdirde, hakemlerin makul olmayan usulî anlaşmaları dikkate almama konusunda yetkili olmaları gerektiğini kabul etmenin zamanı gelmiştir; şüphesiz ki bu, son derece ihtiyatlı yaklaşılması gereken ve usulî anlaşmaya uyulmasının, hakemlerin görevlerini yerine getirmesini engelleyeceği ve istenmeyen sonuçlara neden olacağı durumlarda başvurulması gereken bir istisna olmalıdır. Bu tür bir istisnaya başvurulmadan önce tahkim yeri hukukunun konuya ilişkin yaklaşımı da değerlendirilmesi gereken noktalardan biridir; zira özellikle UNCITRAL Model Kanunu’nu benimsemiş olan ülke hukuklarında, taraflar arasındaki usulî anlaşmanın hakemlerce dikkate alınmamış olması hakem kararının iptali sonucunu doğuran bir sebep olabilmektedir
