Ancient Chinese algorithm: The Ying Buzu Shu (method of surplus and deficiency) vs Newton iteration method
No full textAir exploratory discussion of an ancient Chinese algorithm, the Ying Buzu Shu, in about 2nd century BC, known as the rule of double false position in the West is given. In addition to pointing out that the rule of double false position is actually a translation version of the ancient Chinese algorithm, a comparison with well-known Newton iteration method is also made. If derivative is introduced, the ancient Chinese algorithm reduces to the Newton method. A modification of the ancient Chinese algorithm is also proposed, and some of applications to nonlinear oscillators are illustrated

Use of Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy for the Diagnosis of Failure of Transfer of Passive Immunity and Measurement of Immunoglobulin Concentrations in Horses
No full textBackground: The economic, accurate, and rapid screening of foals for failure of transfer of passive immunity (FPT) is essential to ensure timely intervention. Hypothesis: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy of foal sera and pattern recognition may be used to diagnose FPT and quantify serum IgG. Samples: Sera from 194 foals (24–72 hours) with serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrations determined previously by radial immunodiffusion assay (RID) were used. Methods: IR spectra were recorded for the serum samples, and the data were randomly divided into training and independent test sets, each containing both FPT-positive (IgG <400 mg/dL) and non-FPT samples. A genetic optimal region selection algorithm and linear discriminant analysis were used to partition the training spectra, and the resulting classifier was then validated by comparing the IR-predicted FPT status for each of the test samples to that provided by the RID IgG assay. A quantitative IR-based assay for IgG was developed using partial least squares (PLS) and validated by testing its ability to predict IgG concentrations. Results: Specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy for the combined data were 92.5, 96.8, and 95.9%, respectively. Corresponding positive (88.1%) and negative predictive (98.0%) values determined a success rate of 95–97% as compared to RID-based IgG concentrations. The IR-based quantitative assay yielded correlation coefficients for IR spectroscopy versus RID-based IgG concentrations of 0.90 and 0.86 for the training and test sets, respectively. Conclusions and Clinical Importance: The overall performance of the IR-based test was similar to that of the colorimetric assay and was superior and more economic than other available tests.Christopher B.

Feminism and environment protection in Lung Ying-tai’s prose
No full textThis study discusses the major themes related to the problems of women and
natural ecology in the prose texts of Lung Ying-tai. Feminist theories were
used to reveal the difficulties of women living in a patriarchal society over a
prolonged period. These theories were also used to criticise the inequitable
family practices and social systems to enable traditional women to acquire a
better understanding of their own destiny. Lung Ying-tai reflected on the
traditional gender roles in her writing and advocated female independence as
well as demanded for gender equality. At the same time, she encouraged
modern women to pursue their dreams and ambitions by using their own
strengths to realise a better future for themselves. Moreover, theories of
ecological criticism were also used to analyse Lung Ying-tai’s prose texts that
reflected the problems of ecology. The author criticised human greed which
placed great emphasis on economic benefits that subsequently led to the
exploitation of the limited resources of the earth resulting in a serious
imbalance of the natural ecological environment and sufferings to human
beings. Her concerns about the ecological crisis were demonstrated through
the evocation of ecological beauty in her writing in an attempt to elicit public
awareness on the importance of a balanced natural ecology. To encourage
more readers to support the work of environmental protection, Lung Ying-tai
strongly advocated public participation in campaigns on loving trees and
suggested the use of legislation to protect the living spaces of the natural
ecological environment
Les flottements identitaires dans l'oeuvre romanesque de Ying Chen
No full textSince the publication of her first novel La Mémoire de l'eau, in 1992, Ying Chen is known to be a prolific Sino-Canadian writer in Quebec. Many of her novels were analyzed by commentators who were interested in the literary movement called "littérature migrante", while the second wave of migrant writers came to diversify the literary landscape in Quebec in the turning point of the 1990s. Recent studies concerning Ying Chen's novelistic work deal less with the question of the cultural origins of the author than the broader questions relating to identity especially since the writer proceeded to erase the time-space marks and the cultural data in Immobile, Le Champ dans la mer and Querelle d'un squelette avec son double allowing the works of Chen to go beyond the label of "migrant writer" since she had written on the themes of exile and peregrination in her first novels. This thesis focuses on the first six novels of Ying Chen, published between 1992 and 2003. Our analysis addresses the "literarity" of her fictions, by studying her works in the optics of the fictitious narrative and by overstepping the supposed link between the production of an author and his ethnicity. Therefore, the goal of this thesis is to show how the hybrid identity appears in La Mémoire de l'eau, Les Lettres chinoises, L'Ingratitude, Immobile, Le Champ dans la mer, and Querelle d'un squelette avec son double. In order to illustrate how tormented identities divide Ying Chen's characters, we redefine and analyze the various components of hybridity that cross over our corpus in the light of several entanglements of time, space, and time-space markers that become increasingly unfixed in one novel after another. Finally, this thesis aims to explain how the shady and double identity is a central theme in Ying Chen's novels in regard to the concept of hybridity in the literary field.Ce mémoire se penche sur l'œuvre romanesque de Ying Chen, écrivaine sino-canadienne très prolifique au Québec depuis la publication de son premier roman La Mémoire de l'eau en 1992. Nombre de ses écrits ont été analysés par des commentateurs en regard de la littérature dite « migrante », alors que la deuxième vague d'écrivains migrants venait diversifier le paysage littéraire au Québec au tournant des années 1990. Les études récentes portant sur les œuvres fictives de Chen s'intéressent moins à la question des origines de l'auteure qu'à la question proprement identitaire, surtout depuis que l'écrivaine a procédé à l'effacement des repères spatio-temporels et des données culturelles dans Immobile, Le Champ dans la mer et Querelle d'un squelette avec son double. Par ailleurs, les temps et les lieux indéterminés de ces trois romans alimentent l'identité hybride d'une narratrice fuyante. Cette deuxième partie de son œuvre romanesque permet à Ying Chen de dépasser l'étiquette d'« écrivaine migrante » qu'on lui accolait dès lors qu'elle traitait des thèmes de l'exil et de la pérégrination dans ses premiers écrits. Le corpus de notre recherche est formé des six premiers romans de Ying Chen, publiés entre 1992 et 2003. Nous nous intéressons à la littérarité de ces textes, en étudiant les œuvres dans l'optique du récit fictif et en nous éloignant du lien supposé entre la production d'un auteur et son origine ethnique. Nous nous attachons à analyser de quelle façon l'hybridité identitaire s'actualise dans La Mémoire de l'eau, Les Lettres chinoises, L'Ingratitude, Immobile, Le Champ dans la mer et Querelle d'un squelette avec son double. À la lumière d'une hybridité corporelle, redoublée d'un enchevêtrement des lieux, des temps et des marqueurs spatiotemporels indéterminés, nous voyons comment l'identité trouble et double est un thème central qui affecte à différents degrés les personnages et narrateurs de Ying Chen
