# Here is my second question on the complex numbers assignment. How do I prove the following below?
## If z=cos$\theta$+isin$\theta$, prove that; 1. 1+$z + {z}^{2}$=(1+cos theta)(cos theta+isin theta) 2. $z / \left(1 + z\right) = 1 + i \tan \left(\theta / 2\right)$
Aug 10, 2018
See below
#### Explanation:
1. $z = \cos \theta + i \sin \theta$
$z + 1 = \cos \theta + i \sin \theta + 1$
${\left(z + 1\right)}^{2} = {\left(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta + 1\right)}^{2}$
$1 + 2 z + {z}^{2} = {\cos}^{2} \theta + 2 \cos \theta i \sin \theta + 2 \cos \theta + {i}^{2} {\sin}^{2} \theta + 2 i \sin \theta + 1$
$1 + 2 z + {z}^{2} = {\cos}^{2} \theta + 2 \cos \theta i \sin \theta + 2 \cos \theta - {\sin}^{2} \theta + 2 i \sin \theta + {\sin}^{2} \theta + {\cos}^{2} \theta$
$1 + 2 z + {z}^{2} = 2 {\cos}^{2} \theta + 2 \cos \theta i \sin \theta + 2 \cos \theta + 2 i \sin \theta$
Factor:
$1 + 2 z + {z}^{2} = 2 \left(1 + \cos \theta\right) \left(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta\right)$
Aug 10, 2018
You asked this:
For 1), you are proving that:
• $1 + z + {z}^{2} = z \left(1 + \cos \theta\right) q \quad \equiv q \quad \frac{1}{z} + 1 + z = 1 + \cos \theta$
$z$ is the unit circle so I don't see a problem with dividing like that.
Well:
$q \quad \frac{1}{z} = \frac{\overline{z}}{z \overline{z}} = \frac{\cos \theta - i \sin \theta}{{\cos}^{2} \theta + {\sin}^{2} \theta} = \cos \theta - i \sin \theta$
So:
$q \quad \frac{1}{z} + 1 + z = \cos \theta - i \sin \theta + 1 + \cos \theta + i \sin \theta$
$q \quad = 2 \cos \theta + 1$
$\implies 1 + z + {z}^{2} = \left(1 + \boldsymbol{2} \cos \theta\right) \left(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta\right)$
That's not what you're looking for but it is the same as other answer posted here for this question, if you actually finish off the algebra.
For 2) , I think the answer is out by a factor of 2:
$\frac{z}{1 + z} = \frac{1 + z - 1}{1 + z}$
$= 1 - \frac{1}{1 + z}$
$= 1 - \frac{\overline{1 + z}}{\left(1 + z\right) \overline{\left(1 + z\right)}}$
$= 1 - \frac{1 + \cos \theta - i \sin \theta}{{\left(1 + \cos \theta\right)}^{2} + {\sin}^{2} \theta}$
$= 1 - \frac{1 + \cos \theta - i \sin \theta}{2 + 2 \cos \theta}$
$= \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{\sin \theta}{2 + 2 \cos \theta}$
Half angle formulae:
$= \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{2 \sin \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) \cos \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{2 + 2 \left(2 {\cos}^{2} \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) - 1\right)}$
$= \frac{1}{2} + i \frac{2 \sin \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) \cos \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{4 {\cos}^{2} \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}$
$= \boldsymbol{\frac{1}{2}} \left(1 + i \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)\right)$
Again not the answer you're looking for but I don't see the mistake in the algebra.

### Ideal Monatomic Gas Entropy
Why does "1 mol of the atoms of an ideal monatomic gas" have a greater change in entropy than "1 mol of atoms bound together as diatomic molecules" when temperature in increased?
The book's answer key says it is because the 1 mol of atoms of an ideal monatomic gas has "a greater number of particles." Why is this? Can someone please explain why 1 mol of atoms of an ideal monatomic gas has more particles than 1 mol of atoms bound together as diatomic molecules?

### Re: Ideal Monatomic Gas Entropy
Its easiest to explain this with an example. Take diatomic fluorine. F2 is always in equilibrium with its monatomic form, F, as shown below:
F2 <--> 2F
When diatomic fluorine is heated, not only will it gain entropy due to the energy transfer, but some of the diatomic molecules will split, effectively increasing the moles of gas. This is why the book says there are "more particles".

# Evaluation of an integral using Mathematica
I am trying to evaluate the following integral, but the result I got is imaginary part. Do you know if there is a way to get a better evaluation of difficult integrals?
In S = Integrate[1/(Pi*Sqrt[(1/a) - (1/x)]*Sqrt[(1/x) - (1/b)]*(1 - B*x^2)), {x, a,b}]
where, a, b >0, b>a.
If you have any suggestions on how to evaluate this, let me know. Thank you in advance.
• Should B be b? – N.J.Evans Sep 7 '18 at 13:14
• No, they are different. – Mounia Hamidouche Sep 7 '18 at 13:16
If you restrict B to be real
S = Assuming[b > a > 0 && Element[B, Reals], Integrate[
1/(Pi*Sqrt[(1/a) - (1/x)]*Sqrt[(1/x) - (1/b)]*(1 - B*x^2)),
{x, a, b}] // Simplify]
(* ConditionalExpression[(Sqrt[
a b] (Sqrt[-(-1 + a Sqrt[B]) (-1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[-1 - a Sqrt[B]] +
Sqrt[-(1 + a Sqrt[B]) (1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[1 - a Sqrt[B]] -
Sqrt[-(1 + a Sqrt[B]) (1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[-1 + b Sqrt[B]] -
Sqrt[-(-1 + a Sqrt[B]) (-1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[1 + b Sqrt[B]] -
Sqrt[-(1 + a Sqrt[B]) (1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[Sqrt[B] - a B] -
Sqrt[-(-1 + a Sqrt[B]) (-1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[Sqrt[B] + a B] +
Sqrt[-(1 + a Sqrt[B]) (1 + b Sqrt[B])] Log[Sqrt[B] - b B] +
Sqrt[-(-1 + a Sqrt[B]) (-1 + b Sqrt[B])]
Log[Sqrt[B] + b B]))/(2 Sqrt[-(-1 + a Sqrt[B]) (-1 + b Sqrt[B])]
Sqrt[-(1 + a Sqrt[B]) (1 + b Sqrt[B])] Sqrt[
B] π), ((B > 0 && 1/b^2 >= B) || B < 0 ||
1/a^2 <= B) && (a >= Re[1/Sqrt[B]] || b <= Re[1/Sqrt[B]] ||
Sqrt[B] ∉ Reals)] *)
Or for the more restrictive case of B > 0
S = Assuming[b > a > 0 && B > 0, Integrate[
1/(Pi*Sqrt[(1/a) - (1/x)]*Sqrt[(1/x) - (1/b)]*(1 - B*x^2)),
{x, a, b}] // Simplify]
(* ConditionalExpression[(
Sqrt[a b] (-Sqrt[1 - (a + b) Sqrt[B] + a b B] + Sqrt[
1 + (a + b) Sqrt[B] + a b B]))/(2 Sqrt[B (-1 + a^2 B) (-1 + b^2 B)]),
1/b^2 > B] *)
EDIT: Example
S /. {a -> 1, b -> 2, B -> 1/8} // FullSimplify
(* 4 Sqrt[2/7 (5 - Sqrt[7])] *)
% // N
(* 3.28059 *)

• S. Sriram
Articles written in Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy
• High resolution stellar spectroscopy with VBT echelle spectrometer
The optical design and performance of the recently commissioned fiber fed echelle spectrometer of 2.34 meter Vainu Bappu Telescope are described. The use of it for stellar spectroscopic studies is discussed.
• In-orbit Performance of UVIT and First Results
The performance of the ultraviolet telescope (UVIT) on-board AstroSat is reported. The performance in orbit is also compared with estimates made from the calibrations done on the ground. The sensitivity is found to be within ∼15% of the estimates, and the spatial resolution in the NUV is found to exceed significantly the design value of 1.8′′ and it is marginally better in the FUV. Images obtained from UVIT are presented to illustrate the details revealed by the high spatial resolution. The potential of multi-band observations in the ultraviolet with high spatial resolution is illustrated by some results.
• In-orbit performance of UVIT over the past 5 years
Over the last 5 years, UVIT has completed observations of more than 500 proposals with $\sim$800 unique pointings. In addition, regular planned monitoring observations have been made and from their analysis various key parameters related to in orbit performance of UVIT have been quantified. The sensitivities of the UV channels have remained steady indicating no effect of potential molecular contamination confirming the adequacy of all the protocols implemented for avoiding contamination. The quality of the PSF through the years confirms adequacy of thermal control measures. The early calibrations obtained during the Performance Verification (PV) phase have been further revised for more subtle effects. These include flat fields and detector distortions with greater precision. The operations of UVIT have also evolved through inorbit experience, e.g. tweaking of operational sequencing, protocol for recovery from bright object detection (BOD) shutdowns, parameters for BOD thresholds, etc. Finally, some effects of charged particle hits on electronics led to optimised strategy for regular resetting. The Near-UV channel was lost in one of suchoperations. All the above in-orbit experiences are presented here.
• Contamination control of UVIT
Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) is one of the 5 instruments on AstroSat satellite, which was launched on September 28, 2015. UVIT was designed to make images with a resolution of <1:8$''$, simultaneously in two ultraviolet channels: Far Ultraviolet (130–180 nm) and Near Ultraviolet (200–300 nm). Images are also made in visible region (320–550 nm) for tracking drifts in pointing. The shortest wavelengths to be observed with UVIT can be heavily absorbed by mono-molecular deposits/contamination on the optical surfaces.Keeping contamination under control in UVIT was a major challenge and it required a variety of actions: (i) strict control of the payload materials and process, (ii) mechanical configuration, (iii) baking of all the parts to release all the adsorbed molecules etc., (iv) assembly in ultra cleanrooms, (v) pre-inspection and auditing of all the areas, in which UVIT was placed, for any potential for contamination, (vi) continuous purging, with ultrapure nitrogen gas, till a few days before the launch, etc. In order to minimise any possible cross contaminationsfrom the other payloads/satellite, the doors of UVIT were opened 2 months after the launch. The high performance in the orbit and high stability of the sensitivity over 4 years in the orbit shows that the contamination was negligible. This paper presents the processes and protocols followed during the integration and testingphase to minimise the contamination in order to prevent any performance degradation.
• A 10-m class national large optical-IR telescope
An observatory class national large optical-IR telescope (NLOT), is proposed to be built and located in the country. The telescope consists of a 10–12 m segmented primary. In order to cater to a diversity of observational programs, the telescope is designed with high throughput in both the optical and IRregions (0.3–5 $\mu$m). It should perform reasonably well up to 30 $\mu$m. The telescope and instruments should have remote operations capability, allowing for the queue as well as classical scheduling and high reliability and robustness. This article provides a brief description of the science cases that drive the telescope requirements, activities related to optics design and some thoughts on the instruments.
• India-TMT project—science instrumentation program
The future of astronomy in the coming decades will be shaped by the upcoming three extremely large optical telescopes, the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT), the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) and the European Large Telescope (ELT). The USA astronomy and astrophysics 2020 decadal survey and the Canadian long-range plan for astronomy have recently recommended these large observatories as a top priority for ground-based astronomy for the upcoming decade. India is a 10% partner in one of these large observatories, the TMT, which is jointly funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and Department of Atomic Energy (DAE). Here, we highlight India’s contributions to the development of the telescope and science instruments. The size of back-end science instruments scale with telescope aperture, hence, science instruments for TMT will be the biggest ever built for any telescope. Designing and building them requires broad collaboration within India, across TMT partnership and industries. India contributes >30% of the work share towards the development of wide field optical spectrometer (WFOS). India is part of the development of other first-light instruments, the infrared imaging spectrograph (IRIS) and multi-object diffraction-limited high-resolution infrared spectrograph (MODHIS). Infrared guide star catalog is an important contribution from India to these adaptive optics (AO)-assisted instruments. India leads the development of high-resolution optical spectrograph (HROS), a major workhorse among the first decade instruments of TMT. India is also part of the instrument development team of other first-decade instruments. Concerted efforts have been made to contribute to some of the TMT precursor instruments that will help us to maximize the scientific productivity when TMT is operational, especially in the area of exoplanet science and observations that require AO. India-TMT is part of the science team for the Keck high-resolution infrared spectrograph for exoplanet characterization (HISPEC), a precursor instrument to TMT-MODHIS. In addition, Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) is participating in the science and development of Santa Cruz array of lenslets for exoplanet spectroscopy (SCALES) project for Keck, which is a direct imaging spectrograph for exoplanet studies and a precursor to the TMT planetary system imager.

## Monday, March 1, 2010
Yesterday, I was compiling a function in SLIME, and I consistently got error: illegal function call messages from SBCL. The function was a pretty complicated one, and I couldn't figure out the error. I even resorted to commenting out sections, until I had an empty shell, with only the docstring. Then realization dawned — here is a simplified example of how the function looked like:
(defun foo (bar)
"Docstring, followed by accidental dot".
(let ((baz (1+ bar)))
baz))
Did you notice the dot? I didn't, for a while (guess I should take breaks every hour or so and rest my eyes, especially in the evening). But the reader did.

People often ask me “How many people use Dask?”
As with any non-invasive open source software, the answer to this is “I don’t know”.
There are many possible proxies for user counts, like downloads, GitHub stars, and so on, but most of them are wildly incorrect. As a project maintainer who tries to find employment for other maintainers, I’m incentivized to take the highest number I can find, but that is somewhat dishonest. That number today is in the form of this likely false statement.
This number comes from looking at the Python Package Index (PyPI) (image from pypistats.org)
This is a huge number, but is almost certainly misleading. Common sense tells us that there are not 100k new Dask users every day.
If you dive in more deeply to numbers like these you will find that they are almost entirely due to automated processes. For example, of Dask’s 100k new users, a surprising number of them seem to be running Linux.
While it’s true that Dask is frequently run on Linux because it is a distributed library, it would be odd to see every machine in that deployment individually pip install dask. It’s more likely that these downloads are the result of automated systems, rather than individual users.
Anecdotally, if you get access to fine grained download data, one finds that a small set of IPs dominate download counts. These tend to come mostly from continuous integration services like Travis and Circle, are coming from AWS, or are coming from a few outliers in the world (sometimes people in China try to mirror everything)..
## Check Windows
So, in an effort to avoid this effect we start looking at just Windows downloads.
The magnitudes here seem more honest to me. These monthly numbers translate to about 1000 downloads a day (perhaps multiplied by two or three for OSX and Linux), which seems more in line with my expectations.
However even this is strange. The structure doesn’t match my personal experience. Why the big change in adoption in 2018? What is the big spike in 2019? Anecdotally maintainers did not notice a significant jump in users there. Instead, we’ve experienced smooth continuous growth of adoption over time (this is what most long-term software growth looks like). It’s also odd that there hasn’t been continued growth since 2018. Anecdotally Dask seems to have grown somewhat constantly over the last few years. Phase transitions like these don’t match observed reality (at least in so far as I personally have observed it).
Notebook for plot available here
## Documentation views
My favorite metric is looking at weekly unique users to documentation.
This is an over-estimate of users because many people look at the documentation without using the project. This is also an under-estimate because many users don’t consult our documentation on a weekly basis (oh I wish).
This growth pattern matches my expectations and my experience with maintaining a project that has steadily gained traction over several years.
Plot taken from Google Analytics
## Dependencies
It’s also important to look at dependencies of a project. For example many users in the earth and geo sciences use Dask through another project, Xarray. These users are much less likely to touch Dask directly, but often use Dask as infrastructure underneath the Xarray library. We should probably add in something like half of Xarray’s users as well.
Plot taken from Google Analytics, supplied by Joe Hamman from Xarray
## Summary
Dask has somewhere between 100k new users every day (download counts) or something like 10k users total (weekly unique IPs). The 10k number sounds more likely to me, maybe bumping up to 15k due to dependencies. The fact is though that no one really knows.
Judging the use of community maintained OSS is important as we try to value its impact on society. This is also a fundamentally difficult problem. I hope that this post helps to highlight how these numbers may be misleading, and encourages us all to think more deeply about estimating impact.

# How to find the derivative of a dynamic neuron model, which depends on previous states of the neuron?
This is the equation where n denotes the current state, (n-1) denotes the state in the previous step etc.
$\bar{y}(n)=b_{0}*net(n)+b_1*net(n-1)+b2*net(n-2)-a1*\bar{y}(n-1)-a2*\bar{y}(n-2)$
And to do back-propagation I need to find partial derivatives over each of the variables. For now let's just focus on $\frac{\partial&space;\bar{y}(n)}{\partial&space;b_0}$
The term $\bar{y}(n-1)$ in the above equation can be written as:
$\bar{y}(n-1)=b_{0}*net(n-1)+b_1*net(n-2)+b2*net(n-3)-a1*\bar{y}(n-2)-a2*\bar{y}(n-3)$
Since it also contains $b_{0}$, it needs to be substituted into the first equation. But this is where the issue starts. I also need to then substitute $\bar{y}(n-2)$ in the equation above with this:
$\bar{y}(n-2)=b_{0}*net(n-2)+b_1*net(n-3)+b2*net(n-4)-a1*\bar{y}(n-3)-a2*\bar{y}(n-4)$
Which contains $b_{0}$, and so does $\bar{y}(n-3)$ . And I end up in a never ending loop.
So how to do this?

## VPI - Vision Programming Interface
#### 0.4.4 Release
Separable Convolution
# Overview
The Separable Convolution algorithm performs a 2D convolution operation, but takes advantage of the fact that the 2D kernel is separable. The user passes one horizontal and one vertical 1D kernel. This usually leads to better performance, especially for kernels larger than 5x5. For smaller kernels, it's preferable to use Convolution algorithm with a 2D kernel directly.
Input Sobel kernel Output
\begin{eqnarray*} k_{col} &=& \frac{1}{64} \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 6 \\ 15 \\ 20 \\ 15 \\ 6 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} \\ k_{row} &=& \begin{bmatrix} -1 & -5 & -6 & 0 & 6 & 5 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \end{eqnarray*}
# Implementation
Discrete 2D convolution is implemented using the following discrete function:
\begin{eqnarray*} I'[x,y] &=& \sum_{m=0}^{k_w} K_{row}[m] \times I[x,y-(m - \lfloor k_w/2 \rfloor)] \\ I''[x,y] &=& \sum_{m=0}^{k_h} K_{col}[m] \times I'[x-(m - \lfloor k_h/2 \rfloor),y] \end{eqnarray*}
Where:
• $$I$$ is the input image.
• $$I'$$ is the temporary image with convolution along the rows.
• $$I''$$ is the final result.
• $$K_{row}$$ is the row convolution kernel.
• $$K_{col}$$ is the column convolution kernel.
• $$k_w,k_h$$ are the kernel's width and height, respectively.
Note
Most computer vision libraries expect the kernel to be reversed before calling their convolution functions. Not so with VPI, we implement a actual convolution, not cross-correlation. Naturally, this is irrelevant if the kernel is symmetric.
# Usage
1. Initialization phase
1. Include the header that defines the needed functions and structures.
2. Define the input image object.
VPIImage input = /*...*/;
3. Create the output image. It gets its dimensions and format from the input image.
uint32_t w, h;
vpiImageGetSize(input, &w, &h);
vpiImageGetType(input, &type);
VPIImage output;
vpiImageCreate(w, h, type, 0, &output);
4. Create the stream where the algorithm will be submitted for execution.
VPIStream stream;
vpiStreamCreate(0, &stream);
2. Processing phase
1. Define the kernel to be used. In this case, a simple 7x7 Sobel filter.
float sobel_row[7] = {-1, -5, -6, 0, +6, +5, +1};
float sobel_col[7] = {1/64.f, 6/64.f, 15/64.f, 20/64.f, 15/64.f, 6/64.f, 1/64.f};
2. Submit the algorithm to the stream, passing the 1D kernels and remaining arguments. I'll be executed by the CUDA backend.
vpiSubmitSeparableConvolution(stream, VPI_BACKEND_CUDA, input, output, sobel_row, 7, sobel_col, 7, VPI_BOUNDARY_COND_ZERO);
3. Optionally, wait until the processing is done.
vpiStreamSync(stream);
3. Cleanup phase
1. Free resources held by the stream and the input and output images.
For more details, consult the Convolution API reference.

Agreed. But you have to add the usual "babel" line (for XeLaTeX, this
will be replaced one day by the polyglossia package, when it works well
—it didn't with French some time ago). At least for correct
hyphenation and keywords. So your template becomes
%%!TEX TS-program = xelatex
%%!TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xltxtra} % use this when using xelatex
\usepackage[french]{babel}

# Question #b7bb9
Jun 6, 2017
#### Explanation:
The $\frac{d}{\mathrm{dx}}$ of the original function is 2x, using the power rule $n {x}^{n - 1}$ where n is our exponent. The derivative of -2 is zero the $\frac{d}{\mathrm{dx}}$ of a constant is always zero. Now we evaluate the $\frac{d}{\mathrm{dx}}$ at 10, so 2(10) = 20.
Jun 6, 2017
Answer: $20$
#### Explanation:
Find derivative of $f \left(x\right) = {x}^{2} - 2$ at $x = 10$
First we need to find the derivative of $f \left(x\right)$ by using the exponent rule which states that $\frac{d}{\mathrm{dx}} {x}^{n} = n {x}^{n - 1}$ and the constant rule which states that $\frac{d}{\mathrm{dx}} c = 0$ for constant $c$. So:
$f ' \left(x\right) = 2 x$
Now to find $f ' \left(10\right)$ we plug $x = 10$ into the derivative function:
$f ' \left(10\right) = 2 \cdot 10 = 20$
Therefore the derivative of $f \left(x\right) = {x}^{2} - 2$ at $x = 10$ is $20$.

#### ABSTRACT
In recent years, with the improvement of the national economy, the penetration rate of automobiles has been increasing, and traffic accidents have also increased. Fatigue driving is the main factor in many traffic accidents. Fatigue driving can cause the driver’s inattention, slow response, and make wrong decisions on danger signals, which affect the driver’s personal safety. In modern development, driving safety is developing towards intelligence and safety. Therefore, the detection of driver fatigue has become a generally accepted demand. This paper proposes a method to calculate the threshold of blinking, which can detect the blinking state of the driver in real time through video. During the driving process, when the driver is in the closed eye state for a long time, an early warning is issued to avoid the accident. This paper uses Python language to achieve the first, through the digital image technology call Dlib open source library to detect 68 feature points of the face, and then measure the aspect ratio between the length and width of the human eye, and finally through the Kmeans clustering algorithm to collect the ratio The analysis yields the blink threshold. The experimental results show that the recognition rate is 92.5% when the video frame rate is 30, and the recognition accuracy is 92.5%. The experimental results show that the method designed in this paper can quickly detect the fatigue characteristics of the human eye, has a higher recognition rate and accuracy for fatigue driving, and helps reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.
## I. INTRODUCTION
With the improvement of people’s material living standards, cars have become the main means of transportation for people, but the growing number of vehicles has led to more traffic accidents. According to statistics, fatigue driving is the main cause of traffic accidents[1,2].Under normal circumstances, the medical community believes that there are two reasons for fatigue driving, one is because the driver’s attention is too concentrated, and the other is that the body does not rest well. Because of being in this state for a long time, the body will be fatigued, lose concentration, the driver will snoring, lose concentration, decrease the ability to judge dangerous situations, and cause traffic accidents. At present, there are relatively few applications of fatigue driving equipment in China’s in-vehicle systems. Fatigue detection mainly through facial features, eye and mouth features, human electrical signal characteristics and convolutional neural network characteristics[3,4,5].The detection of facial features is generally based on the frequency of blinking eyes, the degree of mouth opening, and the frequency of head movements due to fatigue. The fatigue of human body electrical signals is generally the measurement of surface EMG signals, because human fatigue can be expressed by muscle physiological information. Surface EMG signals can reflect real-time physiological processes of muscle information and physiological signals on the skin surface. Convolutional neural networks generally extract facial features through image processing methods, and then extract the main features through convolutional layers, pooling layers, and fully connected layers to analyze and determine whether fatigue. Chen[6] uses the ASM algorithm to accurately locate the eyes and mouth area, calculates the eye’s aspect ratio, mouth height value, and black and white pixel ratio near the mouth, and obtains the blink frequency and mouth opening degree. The degree of mouth opening is used as an input to the fuzzy inference engine to obtain three types of fatigue levels to accurately quantify the degree of fatigue
The method proposed in this paper is to judge the driver’s fatigue driving according to the characteristics of the human eye. Because the digital image processing open source visual library OpenCV comes with a human face detection library, but the disadvantage is that the lighting requirements are very high, the lighting slightly changed, it will be difficult to locate or inaccurate positioning[7]. Therefore, this paper chooses Dlib open source library to detect human eye features. Firstly, the 68 face feature points provided by the Dlib open source library are used to accurately calibrate the position of the face and the human eye, and then the aspect ratio between the length and the width of the human eye is measured. Finally, the Kmeans clustering algorithm is used to analyze the collected ratio. The threshold of blinking. Figure 1 below, a is the 68 face feature points marked by Dlib, and b is the feature point on the face of the paper.

### A. Blink detection and threshold analysis methods
This chapter mainly introduces the blink algorithm formula and blink threshold analysis method. The blink threshold analysis method uses the Kmeans clustering algorithm in machine learning. There are many methods for blink detection, such as support vector machine classification, eye movement sequence analysis, convolutional neural network feature extraction, eye feature point analysis, etc. This article uses the eye feature analysis method. Threshold analysis methods in machine learning usually use regression algorithms, decision tree methods, Bayesian methods, and clustering algorithms. This article uses the Kmeans clustering algorithm in machine learning.

### C. Kmeans clustering algorithm
The Kmeans algorithm is a relatively common algorithm in clustering algorithms. Its advantage is that it is easy to implement and understand, and the calculation speed is fast. The core idea is to calculate the distance between the sample point and the centroid of the cluster, and divide the calculated result into the same cluster as the sample point with the centroid of the cluster.
The similarity between samples in K-means is determined by the distance between them. The closer the distance is, the higher the similarity is. The common distance calculation methods are Euclidean distance, Euclidean distance and Manhattan distance. European distance. In the cluster analysis, the formulas for two m-dimensional samples xi=(xi1,xi2,xi3…,xim) and xj=(xj1,xj2,xj3…,xjm) are as follows:
##### (2)
$disted=∑k=1m(xik−xjk)2$
The steps of the k-means algorithm are as follows:
• 1) First randomly select the centroids of K clusters.
• 2) Calculate the Euclidean distance from each sample point to each centroid, and classify it into the cluster with the smallest center of mass, and then calculate the centroid of each new cluster.
• 3) After all the sample points are divided, recalculate the position of the centroid of each cluster, and then iteratively calculate the distance from each sample point to the centroid of each cluster, and then re-divide the sample points.
• 4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 until after the iteration, the partitioning of all sample points remains unchanged, and K-means gets the optimal solution.
The main problem of the calculation result is to ensure the convergence of the algorithm. Here, the square error is calculated by the following formula, which is used to illustrate that the clustering effect can minimize the sum of squares in each cluster.
##### (3)
$J(c,u)=∑i=1K∥x(i)−uc(i)∥2$
j(c, u) represents the sum of squares of the distance from each sample point to its cluster, uc(i) represents the centroid of the cluster to which the i-th sample belongs, and the smaller j(c, u), all the sample points and their clusters The smaller the distance, the better the quality of the division. The termination condition of the K-means algorithm is that j(c, u) converges to a minimum. In order to achieve clustering, the maximum value of the objective function is obtained. Take a one-dimensional array as an example.
##### (4)
$J=∑i=1k∑xj∈ui(x(i)−uc(i))2$
Transform the above formula to get:
$∂J∂ui=∂∂ui∑i=1k∑xj∈ui(xj−ui)2$
When $(−2)∗∑xj∈ui(xj−ui)=0ui=1|ci|∑xj∈uiXj$ The result of the optimization is to calculate the mean of the cluster.
During the experiment, the algorithm may be too slow to achieve effective results because the data set is too large. Therefore, you can specify the maximum number of convergence times for the K-means algorithm or specify the cluster center transformation threshold. When the algorithm reaches the maximum number of times or When the cluster center rate of change is less than a certain threshold, the algorithm stops updating.
K-means algorithm advantages: easy to understand, easy to implement, high operating efficiency, the disadvantage is that the greedy strategy is used to cluster the sample points, resulting in easy local convergence of the algorithm, slower data processing in big data, and outliers and The noise is very sensitive, and a small number of outliers and noise points can have a significant impact on the averaging of the algorithm.

## IV. CONCLUSION
This paper overcomes the shortcomings of digital image processing and OpenCV vision open source library, and combines the existing open source Dlib machine learning library,The data between the vertical and horizontal ratio of blink is calculated by mathematical method, and the threshold value of the vertical and horizontal ratio of blink is analyzed by means of kmeans clustering algorithm in machine learning. According to the analysis of the public data set of Zhejiang University, when the threshold value of the vertical and horizontal ratio of blink is 5.1, the accurate recognition rate of blink is 92.5%. Through the experimental comparison, this algorithm can effectively detect the fatigue state of blink, which is more important This algorithm is fast, efficient and easy to transplant to various devices, and has great practical value in the field of fatigue driving. The shortcomings of the paper: for fatigue monitoring, not only eyes as a reference point, nose tip shaking, mouth opening and so on have an impact on face fatigue, so the fatigue detection algorithm in this paper needs to be improved.

#### 15 januari 2009, Olof Sisask (University of Cambridge): The minimal and maximal number of three-term progressions in dense subsets of Z/pZ
Abstract. A famous theorem of Roth asserts that any dense subset of the integers {1, ..., N} must contain a three-term arithmetic progression provided N is large enough in terms of the density of the set. This turns out to be equivalent to the statement that a subset of {1 ,..., N} of positive density delta must actually contain a lot of three-term progressions: at least c(delta)N^2 of them, in fact, where c(delta) is some positive constant depending only on the density delta. Similar statements exist in Z/pZ, the integers modulo a prime p, and I shall discuss the analogous problem in this setting: how many three-term progressions must A contain if A is a subset of Z/pZ of density delta? In particular, I shall outline how one can obtain an exact answer for very large densities using some analytically-inspired ideas. Based on joint work Ben Green.

Abstract. We prove a structure theorem for a sumset of two sets A and B of positive upper Banach density in any countable amenable group. More precisely, we prove that AB is "piecewise syndetic" which means that there exists a finite set K such that for any finite set F in G ("configuration") there exists an element g in G such that Fg is a subset of ABK. For abelian groups we prove even more, namely, if A and B have positive upper Banach density then there exists a finite set K in G such that A+B+K is a piecewise Bohr set (large pieces of almost periodic set -- contains a lot of structure). The latter implies that there exist C, D, E sets of positive upper Banach density such that C+D+E is a subset of A+B. (joint work with M.Beiglbock and V.Bergelson)

#### 8 maj 2009, Michael Benedicks (KTH): Kneading sequences for the Double Standard Map
Abstract. Maps from double standard map family f_a(x)=2x+a+(1/pi) sin(2 pi x) (mod~1), have the property that they are double covers of the circle onto itself with a unique inflexion point. They have been investigated most recently by M. Misiurewicz and A. Rodrigues. In particular one can say that they are hybrids between circle homeomorphims with inflexions and quadratic maps of the interval. The aim of the talk is to develop symbolic dynamics and kneading theory for these maps and discuss the behaviour in parameter space (chaotic behaviour, stable periodic orbits) comparing the situation to the more standard cases of circle homeomorphisms and quadratic interval maps. This is joint work with A. Rodrigues.

The results are applied for weighted L^p-L^q boundedness of geometric mean operator f -> exp[(b(x)-a(x))^(-1) int_a(x)^b(x) log f(y) dy] and other related problems. The talk is based on U.U.D.M.

Abstract. The question of equidistribution of Gamma orbits on a homogeneous space X has been thoroughly studied in recent years from many perspectives. In this talk I will tackle this question for Gamma a nilpotent group and X a nilpotent Lie group and consider two types of averages: the word length average and the random walk average. Using unique ergodicity and precise geometric information on the shape of nilpotent balls I will show how to answer the equidistribution problem in that setting.

Abstract. I will present a recent joint work with Manfred Einsiedler and Lior Fishman in which we use rigidity results in dynamics to prove results in Diophantine approximations. We study how certain fractals intersect certain Diophantine classes. In particular I plan to concentrate on the following theorem regarding the intersection of the middle third Cantor set and the set of "Well Approximable" numbers: Theorem: Let a_n be a random sequence of the digits 0 and 2 (each digit appears with probability 1/2) and let x be the number in the unit interval having this sequence as its base three expansion. Then with probability one the coefficients in the continued fraction expantion of x, are unbounded.

#### 2 juni 2009, Tom Sanders (Inst Mittag-Leffler): Modeling Roth's theorem on three term arithmetic progressions
Abstract. A beautiful theorem of K. F. Roth from the 50's asserts that any subset of the integers containing no three-term arithmetic progressions with non-zero common difference has density zero. In the 80's and 90's a beautiful model problem was considered: suppose that A \subset (\Z/3\Z)^n contains no affine line. Then |A|=O(3^n/n). A proof of this result (due to Meshulam) can be seen as a finite field version of Roth's proof of his aforementioned theorem, and in this setting the argument becomes much simpler. Despite this no improvement is known and any bound of the shape o(3^n/n) would be of considerable interest. In this talk we shall consider the analogous problem for (\Z/4\Z)^n where an improvement over Roth's argument is possible.
#### 9 juli 2009, Carlos Vasquez: Stable ergodicity for partially hyperbolic attractors with positive central Lyapunov exponents.
Abstract. In this talk, we establish stable ergodicity for diffeomorphisms with partially hyperbolic attractors whose Lyapunov exponents along the center direction are all positive with respect to the physical measures.
#### 9 juli 2009, Thomas Tucker (University of Rochester): Dynamical Mordell-Lang problems
Abstract. Let S be a group or semigroup acting on a variety V, let x be a point on V, and let W be a subvariety of V. What can be said about the structure of the intersection of the S-orbit of x with W? Does it have the structure of a union of cosets of subgroups of S? The Mordell-Lang theorem of Laurent, Faltings, and Vojta shows that this is the case for certain groups of translations (the Mordell conjecture is a consequence of this). On the other hand, Pell's equation shows that it is not true for additive translations of the Cartesian plane. We will see that this question relates to issues in complex dynamics, simple questions from linear algebra, and techniques from the study of linear recurrence sequences.

I'm reading Peskin and Schroeder and when I got to the section on Quantization of the Electromagnetic field in Chapter 9, I encountered the Faddeev-Popov Trick.
Conceptually, I got what's going on - badly divergent integrals from redundantly integrating over physically equivalent field configurations and a gauge-fixing trick to isolate the interesting part of the path integral counting each physical configuration once and only once, yada, yada.
However, I didn't quite get the math. I absorbed enough to move on, but it's coming back to bite me now in Chapter 16 on Quantization of Non-Abelian Gauge Fields.
So, here is the initial equation that threw me off. It's eq. 9.53 and I don't quite get why it is equal to 1.
1 = ∫ D $\alpha$ (x) $\delta$ (G(A$^{\alpha}$)) det($\delta$G(A$^{\alpha}$)/$\delta\alpha$)
I've been assuming the determinant is the Jacobian of the transformation. The delta is the gauge-fixing condition G(A) = 0, but can somebody fill in any extra steps that shows why this is equal to 1? Any extra insight on the what's going on even conceptually would be nice too.
Also, I suck at using Latex, but an equation two down from this one is a slightly simpler form if that helps elucidate things.
Anyhow, if I can clear that up, I'm sure the rest will fall into place.
Thanks!

∫ D α (x) δ (G(Aα)) |(δG(Aα)/δα|
=∫ D α (x) (δ (Aα))/|(δG(Aα)/δ(Aα)|) |(δG(Aα)/δα|

Hi andrien,
Thanks for the reply!
I think the delta function rule you put up in post #2 will be key. I always forget about that one!
I'm still a little uneasy with a couple of the steps in post #3, but don't have time right now to look into it more.
I'll try and think about it more later tonight (or this weekend) and respond back.

To be more explicit, the formula you are looking at is the functional-integral version of
$\int dx \delta(f(x))|f'(x)| = 1$
As an intermediate step you might prove the following formulas in N dimensions:
$\delta^{(N)}(A\vec{x}) = \delta^{(N)}(\vec{x})/(\det A)$
and thus
$\int d^N x \delta^{(N)}(A\vec{x}) \det A = 1$
(here A is an N by N matrix).
Then generalize to infinite dimensions (i.e., functional integrals) by waving your hands in the right way.

Alright, thanks guys, this has cleared up a lot.
There is only one step I am a little uneasy with still.
A$^{\alpha}_{\mu}$(x) = A$_{\mu}$(x) + (1/e)$\partial_{\mu}$$\alpha$(x)
So, why wouldn't this be the case since A is a function of x, as well.
$\delta$(A$^{\alpha}$) = $\delta$(x) / | $\frac{\partial A^{\alpha}}{\partial x}$ |
$\delta$(A$^{\alpha}$) = {δα/|δ(Aα)/δα|}
from line 4 of andrien's post (post #3)
Once I make myself feel okay about that, everything else is falling into place!

### andrien
Aαμ(x) = Aμ(x) + (1/e)∂μα(x)
this has nothing to do with delta function,it seems like it is related to local gauge invariance.But this is completely off the line.
8. Jan 18, 2013
### dm4b
well, that A is the very one that is in the delta function in question. See page 295 of Peskin and Schroeder.
9. Jan 18, 2013
### andrien
it is still off the line.The integral is over α which is already a function of x.No explicit representation necessary.that relation has nothing to do with the delta function formula.It is just showing the local gauge invariance.
10. Jan 18, 2013
### dm4b
I'm not sure what you mean by "off the line"
Sorry, I am also confused by how that relation can have nothing to do with the delta function. It seems to me that the delta function written out explicitly is:
$\delta$ [ A$^{\alpha}_{\mu}$(x) ]
= $\delta$ [ Aμ(x) + (1/e)∂μα(x) ]
This is what they have on page 295 and it's why I am still confused between the 2nd and 3rd equation in post #6.
The best reason I can come up with going with the 3rd one as you did is because the integral is a functional integral, therefore the delta should be of a function (i.e. the 3rd equation in post #6, or the one you used) and should not be of a number, x. Although, I am not completely sold on my reasoning there.

Well, maybe I got this wrapped up then.
Anyhow, thanks again for the help!

I'm as far as section 16.2. Looks like that may be section 16.4, so I just might very soon ;-)

# 为什么需要分布式系统
## 分布式系统是什么
A distributed system is a system whose components are located on different networked computers, which communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages to one another.[1] The components interact with one another in order to achieve a common goal. Three significant characteristics of distributed systems are: concurrency of components, lack of a global clock, and independent failure of components.[1] Examples of distributed systems vary from SOA-based systems to massively multiplayer online games to peer-to-peer applications.
### 分布式系统遇到的问题
• 系统的吞吐量会变大，但是响应时间会变长。
• 某个非核心服务出现故障，为了不影响主流程，要加入服务降级和熔断策略
• 同一个请求可能被服务集群里面的多台机器处理，然后保证幂等性

# 11.11: Amphiprotic Species
Molecules or ions which can either donate or accept a proton, depending on their circumstances, are called amphiprotic species. The most important amphiprotic species is water itself. When an acid donates a proton to water, the water molecule is a proton acceptor, and hence a base. Conversely, when a base reacts with water, a water molecule donates a proton, and hence acts as an acid.
Another important group of amphiprotic species is the amino acids. Each amino acid molecule contains an acidic carboxyl group and a basic amino group. In fact the amino acids usually exist in zwitterion (German for “double ion”) form, where the proton has transferred from the carboxyl to the amino group. In the case of glycine, for example, the zwitterion is
The zwitterion can donate one of the protons from the N, just as an NH4+ ion can donate a proton. On the other hand, its COO end can accept a proton, just as a CH3COO ion can. Other common amphiprotic species are HCO3, H2PO4, HPO42–, and other anions derived from diprotic or triprotic acids.
Example $$\PageIndex{1}$$ : Equations
Write equations to show the amphiprotic behavior of (a) H2PO4 and (b) H2O.
Solution
To make an amphiprotic species behave as an acid requires a fairly good proton acceptor. Conversely, to make it behave as a base requires a proton donor.
a)
Acid: $$\text{H}_2 \text{PO}_4^- + \text{OH}^- \rightarrow \text{HPO}_4^{2-} + \text{H}_2 \text{O}$$
Base: $$\text{H}_2 \text{PO}_4^- + \text{H}_3 \text{O}^+ \rightarrow \text{H}_3 \text{PO}_4 + \text{H}_2 \text{O}$$
b)
Acid: $$\text{H}_2 \text{O} + \text{S}^{2-} \rightarrow \text{OH}^- + \text{HS}^-$$
Base: $$\text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \rightarrow \text{H}_3\text{O}^+ + \text{HSO}_4^-$$

## Two thousand seventeen VS twenty seventeen: What is the rule for year pronunciation?
62
12
When I started learning English in junior school I was told that I had to pronounce the year 1997 nineteen ninety-seven and the year 2007 two thousand seven.
I've always followed the rule and pronounced the current year two thousand something, while refering to the last century with nineteen-something.
However I have, on several occasions, heard people talk about future years - e.g. 2050 in this tune's intro - and pronounce it twenty something.
This made me think it was ok to say, for instance, twenty seventeen when talking about the current year and I thought about it no more. Lately, in English class, I was talking to my teacher about a trip I did in 2012 and as he asked when, I answered: "That was in twenty twelve". And well by the look on his face I imediately corrected myself - "Oops, I mean two thousand twelve!" - and he was happy. But I did not get the occasion of asking him about the rule.
When will we stop refering to the current year as two thousand something and start saying twenty something?
Two thousand seventeen is already long and laborious to say, but in ten years? Two thousand twenty-seven is even worse. By then will we be "allowed" to say twenty twenty-seven? If not, when? Why not now? And what about the year 4456, do I have to say four thousand four hundreds fifty six or fourty-four fifty-six?
To make short, what is the rule here? I have no clue.
P.S.: I also have no clue on how to hyphenate numbers but that's another story.
13When the century changes, nobody will consult a book. They will just pronounce it the way it sounds right to them, and the way they prefer to hear it when other people say it. They will generally use the choice with the fewest syllables. – fixer1234 – 2017-04-11T14:56:59.533
15As a native English speaker in England, I find "two thousand seven" quite jarring (although it's becoming increasingly common I think it's an Americanism). I would always say "two thousand and seven". – stripybadger – 2017-04-12T09:08:25.283
4@stripybadger As an American, in elementary school, it was drilled into me to only insert an "and" in numerals to indicate the end of the whole number portion and the beginning of the decimal portion. 2007 = "two thousand seven", 2007.7 = "two thousand seven and seven tenths". – Harrison Paine – 2017-04-12T15:46:45.543

I am a native speaker with a careful ear. From my experience, I can tell you that when the millennium turned from 19xx to 20xx, we said "two thousand" plus the remainder throughout the aughts (01, 02, ..., 09). To use the "twenty" construction would have required acknowledging the zero digit: "twenty oh-eight, twenty-oh-nine" or "twenty-aught-seven" etc. Those were still heard a lot, however, as we were all new to the millennium and its numbering.
When it hit 2010, we started mostly saying "twenty-ten, twenty-eleven, twenty-twelve," etc., but it was not uncommon to hear "two thousand thirteen." This somewhat ambiguous pattern will likely continue throughout the teens.
You may be reasonably sure that once we hit the twenties, the "twenty-something" construction will overwhelm the "two thousand" one because "twenty" is still easier to say than "two thousand," and by that time it will also be more felicitous to use because "twenty twenty" has already made inroads into the general ear due to its appearance in popular culture as a standard of vision, etc.
Just to add to an appreciation of the discomfort we feel with the awkwardness of "two thousand", consider the year 2000 itself. It's almost invariably referred to using the confection "the year 2000." Compare uses of "the year 2000" vs, say, uses of "the year 2012" in the Wikipedia articles on those years: "the year 2000" is referenced five times in the three-paragraph article (four in text, once in footnotes), while "the year 2012" in its article is given only once (all other times referring to that year simply as "2012").
Note that the millennial year was sometimes referred to as "Y2K"—although that term is blurred because Y2K could refer to the year itself or (more often, I think) to the turning of the millennium as a concept.
Now, given that we had primed our ears for "two thousand" by using "the year 2000," and that for thirty-odd years we had the example of the very popular Stanley Kubrick film 2001: A Space Odyssey, which everyone I ever heard talk about the film referred to as Two Thousand One and not Twenty-Oh-One, it seems reasonable to suppose that these uses laid a "two thousand" groove from which it was somewhat difficult to extricate our tongues.
Note that I am not saying it was impossible: people still did use "twenty-oh" while the rest of us muddled along doggedly using "two thousand" until 2010 (when, again, not all of us switched). All I am saying is that the millennium shook up the way we pronounce years, and we are slowly returning to the old pattern, the way ripples in a pond slowly die out after a rock has been tossed in.
Order will be restored. Be patient.
Last night I was watching a news program and heard the announcer refer to events that happened in "two thousand nine and twenty ten" ... which was interesting.
4I agree there was (is?) almost certainly a greater tendency to use the longer forms for the first decade, but your answer here seems a bit too "black and white" to me. I've no doubt the "novelty factor" encouraged me to use the longer form more often during the first few months of the new millennium. But that would have worn off soon enough anyway, and it's not directly relevant to later spoken references to earlier dates. I'm also more likely to say *the year two thousand* in contexts where I wouldn't have included those first two words for later years. – FumbleFingers Reinstate Monica – 2017-04-11T14:45:58.550
8I was careful to grant the ambiguity, so I don't see how my answer is "too 'black and white'" ... – Robusto – 2017-04-11T14:48:53.413

Oh - and as regards already made inroads into the general ear, I should point out that as a teenager I grew up with In The Year 2525 - Zager & Evans, and that always seemed perfectly reasonable to me.
– FumbleFingers Reinstate Monica – 2017-04-11T14:49:17.143
I don't know if there's any significant US/UK usage split here. I listen to lots of AmE speakers on Youtube, and I certainly haven't noticed anything like that. But I worked in an office where it was often necessary to refer to years in speech, and many of the AmE speakers I listen to tend to be scientists / academics, which may colour things. All I'm saying is your answer here strongly implies that most people at least used to favour the longer form, but that doesn't really ring true to me. – FumbleFingers Reinstate Monica – 2017-04-11T14:57:26.167
8I believe that the primary difference between US and UK usage is the use of the 'and' as in two-thousand and seven. If someone said two-thousand seven, it would seem strange and wrong to me in the UK. – Rugnir – 2017-04-11T15:58:48.953
I can offer that, during the 200x years, it was unusual enough to hear "twenty-oh-x" that it sounded odd on those occasions when I did hear it. Not so much since 2010. – Davo – 2017-04-11T16:00:19.913
Consider also that we typically say "nineteen-oh-eight", rather than "one thousand nine hundred eight." I agree with you. It's not a rule. It's just simpler to say. – jpmc26 – 2017-04-11T21:10:34.603
4@FumbleFingers: Are you claiming that many (even most?!) people would say e.g. twenty-oh-seven for 2007? It stretches my credulity to believe that anyone habitually uses that form. In my experience, it's definitely two-thousand-one through two-thousand-nine, then twenty-ten on up. – Nick Matteo – 2017-04-11T21:44:02.277
@kundor: If you were in an office context where you're speaking aloud multiple dates ranging over a few recent decades (particularly if they're not in sequence), I'm sure you'd pretty soon drop the thousands business. And as a pre-teen coin collector back in the 60s, I treasured my relatively rare nineteen eighteen pennies - I'd certainly never have called them *nineteen hundred and eighteen pennies.* Much depends on whether you're referencing more than one date in the course of a conversation. – FumbleFingers Reinstate Monica – 2017-04-11T23:34:54.950
2@FumbleFingers: for me at least, two-thousand-seven is quicker and easier to say than twenty-oh-seven, with its pronounced W and the necessity of separating the "oh" so that it can be recognized. (By contrast, the mouth can be quite lazy with "thousand" with no risk of ambiguity.) – Nick Matteo – 2017-04-12T02:51:18.307
5@FumbleFingers - "I've no doubt the "novelty factor" encouraged me to use the longer form more often during the first few months of the new millennium" - No, I don't think that was it. I think it was that if the year is "2003" and you parse that as '20' and '03' and say "twenty three" then nobody knows what you mean. You'd have to say "twenty-oh-three", which is artificial and contrived. That problem goes away as soon as you hit "2010" (and above), which you can parse as '20' and '10' and say as "twenty ten" without any possibility of confusion or spurious "oh" sounds. – aroth – 2017-04-12T03:25:36.403
1For some reason, hearing the two thousand... format really bothers me now and I've started (shamefullly) correcting people. I really can't wait until 2020 when hopefully this nonsense will sort itself out. – adelphus – 2017-04-12T08:48:19.213
Here is an extract from "Louis CK 2017" found on Netflix: Louis is interacting with an audience member, but we can only hear Louis: "What year is it? Anybody. Sir, just yell out the year. Thank you, it is twenty-, twenty sixteen? No it is twenty- that's right, it is two thousand seventeen." – Improve – 2017-04-13T10:44:50.290
@Rugin American children are taught to only use "and" as part of a number when talking about a decimal. "101" is pronounced "one hundred one". "101.5" is "one hundred one AND a half" or "one hundred one AND five tenths". This must be a cultural difference, as in the US leaving out "and" is definitely considered correct. – user428517 – 2017-04-13T17:00:29.607
On the addendum, "Y2K" I think most often refers to the Y2K bug, so much so that it's been reused for a similar version of the same thing, the Y2K38 problem
– Izkata – 2017-04-13T18:24:22.033
@Izkata: Yes, that's what I meant when I said "the turning of the millennium as a concept." But I have heard "Y2K" used sometimes (rarely, to be sure) in speech to reference the year. – Robusto – 2017-04-13T19:34:52.907
I think it's misleading to write things like "when the millennium turned from 19xx to 20xx, we said [...]" and "When it hit 2010, we started mostly saying [...]", because for the most part, what matters is the year being referred to, not the year in which we were speaking. Even in the 1990s, we would say things like "By the year twenty-fifty, [...]". – ruakh – 2017-04-16T02:37:06.253
17
You can't easily establish how the year component of C21 dates is spoken by searching online, because hardly anyone would actually write, say, two thousand [and] sixteen or twenty sixteen. Note also that the [and] there is usually omitted by AmE speakers, and no-one includes it unless they explicitly articulated thousand (or nineteen hundred and sixteen for earlier centuries).
Personally I have no general preference as to whether I refer to the century component of current dates using twenty or two thousand. I use both, but I'm slightly more likely to use the longer form when I want to call attention to the fact that it's a date in the current century (i.e. - "recent, modern").
My guess (and it's no more than that) is that apart from honouring the same principle as I set out above, people are more likely to use the longer form for the first decade (two thousand and one, rather than twenty oh-one). The other relevant factor is if you often have to read dates aloud to co-workers in the office, clients on the phone, etc. In that case you'd probably tend to favour the shorter version.
But I seriously doubt any native speaker would particularly notice whether another native speaker reflected the same or a different preference to themselves. Just use whichever seems most natural to you, and don't get bogged down with thinking that just because you're not a native speaker, your opinion of what "sounds natural" doesn't count for much. It doesn't really matter anyway.

As a native American English speaker, both "two-thousand seventeen" and "twenty seventeen" are acceptable ways to say the year "2017". Generally, I consider "two-thousand seventeen" to be more formal and "twenty seventeen" to be more casual. As examples, you might hear "two-thousand seventeen" in a news broadcast, but use "twenty seventeen" in personal conversations.
The first decade of the 21st century rarely uses the "twenty something" form because of the ambiguity between phrases like "twenty seven" (2007) and "twenty-seven" (27). In rare occasions, the zero is pronounced as "oh" or "aught" to disambiguate ("twenty oh seven" or "twenty aught seven").
10Yeah, I don't think anyone ever said "twenty seven" when they meant 2007. "Twenty seven" simply doesn't and cannot mean 2007. – Martha – 2017-04-11T19:56:25.420
3I think your observations are right, but I don't think your reasoning in the second paragraph is right. As martha says and as you say, nobody ever said twenty seven and nobody would ever have said twenty seven - just like we don't say nineteen seven we say nineteen-oh-seven. But that isn't rare, that's exactly what you'd expect and if you had to guess you would assume it would carry on into twenty oh seven just like nineteen seventeen carried on into twenty seventeen. – Au101 – 2017-04-12T02:47:34.133
Now for sure if you did say nineteen seven there's no ambiguity there, unlike twenty seven, that's true. It's also true that two thousand and seven rolls off the tongue a lot more than one thousand nine hundred and seven, so those are both ways in which the case of 2007 isn't analogous to that of 1907, but I don't really believe we used two thousand and seven for the first decade because of an ambiguity with twenty seven, because we'd never have said twenty seven. We would have and did say twenty oh seven – Au101 – 2017-04-12T02:50:02.087
@Martha: If people were systematic, they could say “twenty hundred (and) seven” like the English used to only 400 years ago. (And the Dutch and Germans only 17 years ago.) Or “twenty and seven” to make it short. – 7vujy0f0hy – 2017-04-12T16:32:48.957
@Au101 In my experience "twenty oh seven" and "twenty aught seven" are rarely used compared to "two-thousand seven", but that could be a regional phenomenon. – asgallant – 2017-04-12T23:09:59.157
"Twenty-oh" or "twenty-aught" would both be three syllables--no shorter than "two thousand". As for formality, I would suggest that phraseology like "two thousand and seventeen" would probably be used in similar contexts to "nineteen hundred and ninety-six". – supercat – 2017-04-13T22:49:04.557

I'm not a native speaker but from grammar books I've learnt that with the years like 20xx we say two-thousand and xx and this goes up to 2100 - as twenty-one-hundred. However, nobody says that it is incorrect to say twenty xx
The and part may be dropped in AmE. So the way it works (as I know it):
• 2008 - two-thousand (and) eight
• 2067 - two-thousand (and) sixty-seven
but:
• 2101 - twenty-one-oh-one (as fixer commented)
• 2367 - twenty-three sixty-seven
• 2017 - two-thousand seventeen.
• 4456 - forty-four fifty-six
Nice answer. Even if I did not ask, thank you for the part about the and. I couldn't remember if I had to include it or not. – Ctouw – 2017-04-11T14:25:41.943
14@Ctouw and SovereignSun - The "and" is used in British English but not in American English. To me as native Brit both "twenty seventeen" and "two thousand and seventeen" sound fine and normal; "two thousand seventeen" sounds wrong (though I'm somewhat used to it by virtue of watching plenty of American TV). – AndyT – 2017-04-11T15:37:10.837
2As a native American English speaker, I would say that when saying years, it is very rare to hear the "and" but with other numbers it is heard sometimes. For example "One Hundred and One." – Robert Hickman – 2017-04-11T16:55:59.063
In 2067 (if I'm still alive then) I will not say the year as 'two-thousand sixty-seven', but as 'twenty sixty-seven' or just 'sixty-seven'. – Rob K – 2017-04-13T13:50:06.250
@RobK It's your choice. I might say the same. – SovereignSun – 2017-04-13T14:05:32.387
Incidentally, while pronunciations will probably change before the year 4456, that number brings up an interesting point: addresses in the US often use similar pronunciation to years because blocks are numbered by hundreds (so if the first block of a street has numbers starting at 1, the next block would have numbers starting at 100 no matter how many numbers were used in the first block, and the next block would start with 200, etc.) I don't think such pronunciation would be used in other countries where numbers are issued consecutively. – supercat – 2017-04-15T20:14:24.397

Wikipedia says:
There is a debate among experts and the general public on how to pronounce specific years of the 21st century in English. Regarding this, academics suggested that since former years such as 1805 and 1905 were commonly pronounced as "eighteen oh" or "nineteen oh" five, the year 2005 should naturally have been pronounced as "twenty oh-five". A less common variation would have been "twenty nought-five". Generally, the early years of the 21st century were pronounced as "two-thousand (and) five", with a change taking place in 2010, where pronunciations often shift between the early-year standard of "two-thousand and ten" and the common approach used in the late 20th century of "twenty-ten".
The Vancouver Olympics, which took place in 2010, was being officially referred to by Vancouver 2010 as "the twenty-ten Olympics". The latest timeframes for change are usually placed at 2020.
Charles Osgood, a long-time CBS news anchor (he hosted "CBS News Sunday Morning" from 1994 to 2016) pronounced all 21st century years as "twenty-something". I recall him making a statement about his preference on the program when the century changed.
1The phrase "nineteen hundred" is four syllables, while "nineteen-oh" is three, thus making the latter shorter. On the other hand, "twenty-oh" is the same number of syllables as "two thousand", and thus doesn't have such an advantage. – supercat – 2017-04-13T22:52:04.620

Conversationally: "Twenty-Seventeen." Definitely. I teach English to foreign-born immigrants and am researching grammar, spelling, pronunciation (including regional dialects) constantly for my students.
"Two-thousand-seventeen" is used when emphasis is placed on the year SPECIFICALLY for some inherent reason. Ex: "Two-thousand-seventeen was the year..." and then some remark emphasizing THAT PARTICULAR year to make a specific point about THAT time-period.
The second part of your answer has an interesting point. That has already been evoked in several other answers and comments but you put it simply and clearly. – Ctouw – 2017-04-13T12:37:21.370

It will become awkward to use the two thousand approach in 2101. Because it will be eight syllables versus five syllables to say it the longer way; whereas, the difference between two thousand seventeen and twenty seventeen is only one syllable. As native speakers, it will feel ridiculous for us to speak the year using eight syllables.
As a native born American and English teacher, I still use the two thousand approach. From 2008 to 2017, I have been abroad, teaching in Asia, so I was not around native speakers to hear how people said the year. I naturally spoke two thousand ten, and so on, and didn't think much about it until I heard it spoken differently in a news video. I think twenty seventeen seems to fit well with a younger generation accustomed to efficiency and convenience. For someone like me, who likes to draw things out at length, I find two thousand seventeen has a much more pleasant sound.
Either way you say it, by 2101, you likely won't be hearing anyone say, "Wow, is it the year two thousand one hundred and one, already?"
1
I am a native (american) english speaker.
It is always correct to pronounce the year number the same way you would for other things. How would you pronounce \$2017 or 2017 miles? That is always correct.
There are ways of pronouncing the year that would never be used for miles or dollars, but they are not more correct than the regular pronunciation of the number.
2Even though it's evident what you're referring to in your last sentence, you could flesh it out with examples for the sake of completeness. – None – 2017-04-12T12:50:49.023
2I can't agree with this. World War One started one thousand nine hundred and fourteen miles away, in nineteen fourteen. I can't imagine a native speaker of English talking about "nineteen fourteen miles". – Dawood ibn Kareem – 2017-04-14T03:09:39.923

British English native here. We only say two thousand and seventeen with the and being a requirement. Omitting that appears to be an American thing.
Saying it like twenty twelve is very rare and usually reserved for a specific event, and only if the year sounds good in said event's title (the obvious examples being major sporting events like the olympics)
8As a British English native I disagree; "twenty ****" sounds completely natural to me for anything from 2010 onwards. – AndyT – 2017-04-12T08:24:19.967
We only say two thousand and seventeen.... Not sure why you think that. Personally, I curse anyone who still uses the two thousand and... format when "twenty seventeen* is completely unambiguous. – adelphus – 2017-04-12T08:43:21.970
@AndyT Really? If someone asked you what year it was three years ago you'd say "Oh, it was twenty fourteen". I think that's quite uncommon. – Matt Fletcher – 2017-04-12T17:31:21.000
I'm fairly sure I would. But as a quick random test I asked a colleague (late 20s, lives in London) what year it was, and he responded "twenty seventeen". – AndyT – 2017-04-13T08:17:27.540
1If your statement is correct, then British English usage has regional variations. Where I live, nobody would say "two thousand and seventeen" - "twenty seventeen" (and "twenty oh seven" for the first decade of the century) is completely "standard". The only exception is the year "two thousand". – alephzero – 2017-04-13T08:50:06.093
Tried with another colleague, I asked him what year he started at the company and he said "Two thousand and..... fourteen? No wait, it would have been {counts on his fingers} twenty fifteen." This backs up my "either is acceptable" comment on another answer. – AndyT – 2017-04-13T15:54:25.100
My 2¢: What was drilled into me in the USA's education system in the early 1990s was that numbers never use the word “and” in the middle of the number— only at the decimal point. So “two thousand and seventeen” is incorrect but “five and three quarters” is correct. It's my understanding that with standardized testing, this is universal across American-taught English. – Slipp D. Thompson – 2017-04-14T19:21:44.643

## Calculating the amount of labels left on a reel.
I have had a look on the forums and couldn't find this question answered in a way i understood. I apologise in advance it is a repeat question.
At work we use reels of wine labels in a production environment. Every reel has a different starting quantity (fresh out of the box) and different labels have different width,height...
The problem we have is estimating the quantity of labels left on each reel once production has used some of them.
I understand the VERY BASICS of what i need to do but have been unable to find a formula that works this far.
SO as i understand it i need to know:
diameter of the core
diameter of the reel
width of the label
width of the space between each label
thickness of the label and backing paper combined
Any help would be greatly appreciated, my math skills are limited so simplicity would be great.
and if the was a formula available that could be used in execl it would make my life a whole lot easier.
Many Thanks

Welcome to the PF.
Are these reels tightly wound, even when partially used? Unless they are tightly wound, it may be hard to get a good estimate.
Can you maybe use the weighing method instead? If you know the tare of the bare reels, you should be able to figure out what percentage of the paper stuff is left versus the weight of a full reel...
Hi, Thanks for the speedy reply Yes these reels tend to remain tightly wound even after use. We have tried to use the weighing method before and found it inaccurate so were hoping for a better solution on here.
## Calculating the amount of labels left on a reel.
Actually, I would have thought that the weighing method would be rather accurate, too...so, maybe there is just too much variation in all the parameters...thickness of label, thickness of backing paper, spacing between labels...hhhmmm, I bet they look identical from afar.
The thing is, even for any other approach, if there are variations in the parameters...things are not going to come up very precise, either...
So, having said that and without involving spirals...
The first approximation to a solution would be to think of whatever is left as a bunch of concentric circles, and so:
measure the thickness of the reel and determine the inner diameter and the outer diameter; knowing the thickness of both label and backing together, evaluate the circumference of each circle, add them up and you have your total length, divide this by the pitch and you have how many labels are left...something like this:
• dr = thickness of both label and backing paper together
• id = inner diameter of left over reel...this may be constant since it should probably be the outer diameter on the bare core material of reel the labels come in
• od = outer diameter of reel
• pitch = distance from one spot in one label to the same spot in the adjacent label; basically, the width (length?) of the label plus spacing in between...maybe make a few measurements and make sure this number is representative
Code:
length = 0
do loop for d from id to od every 2*dr
perimeter = 3.1415926*d
length = length + perimeter
end loop
NumOfLabels = perimeter / pitch
In other words, you have N concentric circles, where N= (od - id) / (2dr)
And just like adding a set of consecutive numbers is the same as multiplying the average so many times:
your total length can be calculated like this:
length = pi x ( (od + id) / 2 ) x N
again, this is just assuming a bunch of concentric circles.
Just an idea
Carefully make precise measurements and then count the actual number of labels left on a few test reels. d=diameter of the core D=diameter of the reel W=width of the label w=width of the space between each label T=thickness of the label and backing paper combined estimated number of labels left = Pi/4*(D*D-d*d)/((W+w)*T) Report back when you are done with a nice table showing all the measurements and the estimated and actual label counts. Make sure your measurements are all in inches or are all in centimeters, just be consistent, no thickness in mills, width in tenths of an inch and diameters in centimeters or anything like that.
Unless I totally misunderstood how the labels come in reels, I think Bill's equation is the wrong one...he is calculating the cross sectional area of the reel when you look at it sideways... Bill: care to reconsider? or correct me?
Recognitions: Gold Member Science Advisor Staff Emeritus Yes, he is. and given a constant thickness for each label, that cross-section area, divided by the thickness of the labels, gives the length of all labels left. Dividing that length by the length of a single label gives the number of labels left.
Well, I guess I would like to see a picture of these damn reels, then!
Recognitions: Science Advisor Some good mathematical solutions have been posited on here so far, but isn't the most efficient course an operational one? You know how many labels are on a reel to start with. You know how many cases of each brand were crated on any given day. So can't you just keep a running total of the labels left on each reel? If your labels are put on the bottles by machine, then keep a log on each machine that is updated at the end of every day (or better yet, do it in software, if your machines are computer controlled). If they are put on by people, then keep a log for each reel. This could be done very simply by just putting a sticker on the handle of a "label applicator" with the number of cases for which there are labels remaining on the reel. Just a thought .. certainly the mathematical solutions proposed are more elegant.

# E < μ/r
Climbing out of the Earth's gravity well requires energy, but a launch loop on the rotating Earth can launch to infinity with less than the classical μ/r gravitational escape energy. The rest of the escape energy is taken from the rotational energy of the Earth itself. Not just the initial 0.11 MJ/kg from the Earth's rotation, but also because the vehicle "pushes against" the 80 km rotor/stator track.

The launch loop track curves from slightly inclined (below orbital velocity) to mostly horizontal at higher speeds, to escape velocity and higher. Momentum is transmitted to the track and rotor, slightly displacing the track backwards and slowing the rotor; positions and velocities are soon restored by cable tension and surface motors, so the long term net energy change to the system is negligable.
A vehicle launching to escape from loop exit altitude must leave the Earth with a velocity (relative to the center of the Earth) of 11110.53 m/s, but the 80 km exit point on the track is already moving 470.09 m/s. Hence the track/motor system only needs to release the vehicle at 10640.44 m/s ... and accelerate the vehicle (plus launch sled) to that lower velocity.
We can approximate total launch energy:
• Launch.Energy ~=~ Vehicle.Acceleration.Energy ~+~ Motor.Losses ~+~ Atmospheric.Drag.Energy
Motor.Losses include resistive losses in conductors, and hysteresis losses in the magnetics. \$
Surface.Driver.Losses ~=~ Rotor.Restoration.Losses ~+~ Power.Transmission.Losses

and surface radius \large R . The standard gravitational parameter \large \mu for the planet is the product of the gravitational constant \large G and \large M : \large \mu ~=~ G M . The gravity at the surface of the planet is \large g(R) ~=~ \mu / R^2 , and the gravity at radius \large r above the surface is \large g(r) ~=~ \mu / r^2 .

# Elements and structure of units in $\mathbb Q(\sqrt {-7})$
I'm completely stuck on this question:
Find the elements and the structure of the group of units in the ring of algebraic integers of number field $\mathbb Q (\sqrt {-7})$.
Are the group of units in the ring of algebraic integers of $\mathbb Q(\sqrt 5)$ finite? Why?
For the first part, I think it might be something to do with Dirichlet and for the second part, I believe the answer is yes but I don't know how to justify it. Pretty stumped.
Any help would be great
• For the first part you'd be looking for elements $x+\sqrt{-7}$ with $x^2 + 7y^2 =1$ For the second part units would be elements $x+y\sqrt{5}$ which are solutions to $x^2 - 5y^2 = \pm 1$ and algrebraic integers. – sharding4 Mar 16 '18 at 20:04
• @sharding4 The ring of integers in $\;\Bbb Q(\sqrt{-7})\;$ is not $\;\Bbb Z[\sqrt{-7}]\;$ but rather $\;\Bbb Z\left[\frac{1+\sqrt{-7}}2\right]\;$ ... Something similar happens with the other number field. Observe that we have both $\;5=-7=1\pmod4\;$ . – DonAntonio Mar 16 '18 at 20:51
• @DonAntonio Thank you for pointing that out. That whole comment is kind of sloppy and doesn't quite make sense. So what we are actually looking for is solutions in integers to $x^2+7y^2 = \pm 4$ and $x^2-5y^2 = \pm 4$. Perhaps someone should come along and give the OP additional help. – sharding4 Mar 16 '18 at 20:59
Since $\;K:=\Bbb Q(\sqrt5)\;$ is a totally real number, there are only two embeddings into an algebraic closure of $\;\Bbb Q\;$ , and both real of course. Thus, here we have $\;r_1=2\,,\,r_2=0\implies\;$ the (multiplicative) group of integral units is isomorphic to $\;F\times\Bbb Z\;$ , with $\;F\;$ the finite cyclic groups of roots of unit contained in $\;K\;$, which are then only $\;\pm1\;$.
In $\;L:=\Bbb Q(\sqrt{-7})\;$ we have zero real embeddings and two, conjugate, complex non-real ones, and thus $\;r_1=0,\,r_2=1\implies\;$ the group of integral units has rank equal to zero and is thus the finite, cyclic group of all the roots of unit contained in $\;L\;$.
As before (since, again, $\;-7=1\pmod4\;$ , the ring of integers in $\;L\;$ is
$$\mathcal O_L=\Bbb Z\left[\frac{1+\sqrt{-7}}2\right]$$
and since the conjugate couple of embedding is determined by $\;\sqrt{-7}\mapsto\pm \sqrt{-7}\;$ , we have that
$$\mathcal N^L_{\Bbb Q}\left(a+\frac12b+\frac{\sqrt{-7}}2b\right)=\left(a+\frac12b+\frac{\sqrt{-7}}2b\right)\left(a+\frac12b-\frac{\sqrt{-7}}2b\right)=$$
$$=a^2+ab+2b^2=\pm1\iff a^2+ab+(2b^2\mp1)=0$$
The above quadratic in $\;a\;$ has a real (in fact, we need integer) solution if
$$\Delta=b^2-8b^2\pm4\ge0\implies\begin{cases} b^2\le\frac47\\{}\\ b^2\le-\frac47\end{cases}\implies |b|\le\frac2{\sqrt7}\iff b=0$$
and thus the only units are $\;a^2=1\iff a=\pm1\;$

# LaTeX: newline after closing $$• LaTeX The support for ##\LaTeX## is great, but there's just one thing I don't like: if I put a newline after the closing \$$ I get too much vertical space after the rendered part. For instance:
$$(x_1+\ldots+x_p)^n = \sum_{c_1+\ldots+c_p=n} \frac{n!}{c_1!\cdots c_p!}x_1^{c_1}\cdots x_p^{c_p}$$
As you can see, there's a space right above this line.
I think the correct thing to do would be to remove all the superfluous newlines before the opening and after the closing \$$. Things are even worse if I want to separate ##\LaTeX## formulas from the rest of the text in the source code:$$(x_1+\ldots+x_p)^n = \sum_{c_1+\ldots+c_p=n} \frac{n!}{c_1!\cdots c_p!}x_1^{c_1}\cdots x_p^{c_p}$$Now I also have a space before the rendered formula. ## Answers and Replies Related MATLAB, Maple, Mathematica, LaTeX News on Phys.org fresh_42 Mentor This is possibly because we do not use LaTeX but MathJax.

# Code Sample: Implement a Persistent Memory Cache-A Simple Find Example
Published: 06/04/2019
Last Updated: 06/04/2019
Optimized for...
OS: Linux* kernel version 4.3 or higher
Hardware:
Intel® Optane™ persistent memory and second generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processor.
Software:
(Programming Language, tool, IDE, Framework)
C++ Compiler, Persistent Memory Development Kit (PMDK) libraries
Prerequisites: Familiarity with C++ and PMDK
## Introduction
In this short article, I show how to improve the user experience by using persistent memory as a cache. The advantage of using persistent memory resides in the unification of the data model, avoiding the need to split data between main memory and storage.
For the persistent memory code, I use the C++ bindings of the libpmemobj library, a high-level transactional library that is part of the Persistent Memory Development Kit (PMDK). To learn more, visit the Intel® Developer Zone Persistent Memory Programming site, where you will find the information needed to get started.
All the code referenced here can be found in the following repository. Follow the instructions there to compile it.
## The Volatile Version
This code sample corresponds to a simplified version of the command find in Linux, called find-all. If you go to the repository linked above, you will find that the sample also comes with a script called create_test_tree.sh. This script creates an arbitrary directory structure given three parameters:
tree-root, which is where the root of the directory structure is placed.
tree-depth, which is how many levels of subdirectories we want in the tree.
files-per-level, indicating how many files will be created per level.
The files created will be empty (since find is used to find files by name, we only care about the file name here). The number of subdirectories in each level is fixed to three.
For example, to create a directory tree with six levels and 100 files per level, with the root at ./test_tree, we run:
$./create_test_tree.sh test_tree 6 100 If you list the root, you should see something like this: [sdp@localhost find_all_pm]$ ls test_tree/
acvlhpknswalwbwtnpzggaewqnacpopv httjlfkrsbjvnydfwkfiekfqkbqtstkq rgwbefyncedkyvpziijfqgzxcghcbyua
agocrfeblfzeirldzyzyqeqsqecwodio hxuimxojjfprdmuoqxkeopavhjuldomd rhafepwdyvoxoxhhfqyybajfhkijkryh
bdpdfdfysqkpilptzfqypldeydiemcel idvcepykqyvwuthshsopckxkpuxqmdab
...
[sdp@localhost find_all_pm]$ File names are 32 characters long and generated randomly. Directory names are generated randomly as well, but they are just 5 characters long. For the curious, we have generated 36,400 files in 364 subdirectories. We can now search for file names containing arbitrary strings. Let’s search for files whose names include the string “aazz”: $ ./find-all ./test_tree aazz
./test_tree/gzqtl/kwntu/fvecf/tivvl/kuzpl/klwfgiwqenljruorfdupgkmaazzydrik
./test_tree/gzqtl/kwntu/opuci/ktxmi/chisz/enlvjaazzuanuguupnnrrwxgfafekwck
./test_tree/hfibr/fifpu/wtpdt/mgrex/mbrma/sapjhqtpnxaazzkflhbmgtrhqbcxkvuj
$ As it is possible to see, three files are found. How much time does it take to do the search? Let’s find out: $ time ./find-all ./test_tree aazz
./test_tree/gzqtl/kwntu/fvecf/tivvl/kuzpl/klwfgiwqenljruorfdupgkmaazzydrik
./test_tree/gzqtl/kwntu/opuci/ktxmi/chisz/enlvjaazzuanuguupnnrrwxgfafekwck
./test_tree/hfibr/fifpu/wtpdt/mgrex/mbrma/sapjhqtpnxaazzkflhbmgtrhqbcxkvuj

* see performance disclaimer
Over half a second! That may not seem like a lot of time, but seconds can add up if search queries are required often. Moreover, and as the tree structure becomes more complex (see below), the response time can start to be measured in whole seconds, which can really degrade the user experience.
## The Persistent Version
In this version, a persistent data structure is added that mimics the directory structure (that is, a tree) for each pattern. The data structure starts with a root object. The root has a list of patterns that the user has searched for in the past:
class root {
private:
pobj::persistent_ptr<pattern> patterns;
public:
pattern *find_pattern(const char *patstr, const char *rootstr) {
...
}
pattern *create_pattern(const char *patstr, const char *rootstr) {
...
}
};
From each pattern, we hang a tree storing all the subdirectories. In the case of files, however, and to keep the data structure efficient, only those files’ names that matched the pattern in previous queries are stored for each subdirectory in the data structure.
For each subdirectory in the tree, we also store the time when the latest search was performed. When the user is searching for the same pattern again, the program will simply iterate this in-memory tree structure. If the modification time for a particular subdirectory in the file system hasn’t changed since the last search (it only changes if new files or directories are added or removed to or from it), we don’t need to re-scan it. We can simply print the cached results and move to the next subdirectory recursively. The following code snippet shows the class pattern:
class pattern {
private:
pobj::persistent_ptr<char[]> patstr;
pobj::persistent_ptr<char[]> rootstr;
pobj::persistent_ptr<entry> rootdir;
pobj::persistent_ptr<pattern> next;
public:
pattern(const char *patstr, const char *rootstr) {
NEW_PM_STRING(this->patstr, patstr);
NEW_PM_STRING(this->rootstr, rootstr);
this->rootdir = pobj::make_persistent<entry>(nullptr, rootstr, true);
this->next = nullptr;
}
const char *get_patstr(void) { return this->patstr.get(); }
const char *get_rootstr(void) { return this->rootstr.get(); }
pobj::persistent_ptr<pattern> get_next(void) { return this->next; }
void set_next(pobj::persistent_ptr<pattern> pat) { this->next = pat; }
int find_all(void) {
return rootdir->process_directory(this->patstr.get());
}
};
The function find_all() is the one called to scan a tree root with the pattern. This function calls process_directory(), a recursive function from the class entry in charge of scanning all the files and directories under a particular directory root (the first one is always the tree root).
Entries can be directories or files. File entries (cached from previous searches) are simply printed out as results, while directories are processed recursively by calling process_directory(). As mentioned before, in the case where the modification time of a directory has changed since the last search, the directory’s contents need to be re-scanned again from the file system:
...
/* Let's get current 'last modif time' */
stat(path, &st);
time_t new_mtime = st.st_mtime;
if (difftime(new_mtime, this->mtime) != 0) {
/* dir content has changed, we need
* to re-scan it
* */
while ((dirp = readdir(dp)) != NULL) {
...
These are the variables of the class entry:
class entry {
private:
pobj::persistent_ptr<char[]> parent;
pobj::persistent_ptr<char[]> name;
pobj::p<bool> isdir;
pobj::p<time_t> mtime;
pobj::persistent_ptr<entry> entries;
pobj::persistent_ptr<entry> next;
...
};
The persistent program is called find-all-pm. To run it, we need to indicate the location of the persistent memory pool (if the pool does not exist, the program will create it) in addition to the other parameters. In my case, the pool resides in /mnt/pmem/pool:
$time ./find-all-pm /mnt/pmem/pool ./test_tree aazz ./test_tree/hfibr/fifpu/wtpdt/mgrex/mbrma/sapjhqtpnxaazzkflhbmgtrhqbcxkvuj ./test_tree/gzqtl/kwntu/opuci/ktxmi/chisz/enlvjaazzuanuguupnnrrwxgfafekwck ./test_tree/gzqtl/kwntu/fvecf/tivvl/kuzpl/klwfgiwqenljruorfdupgkmaazzydrik ... real 0m0.699s user 0m0.020s sys 0m0.038s * see performance disclaimer As you can see, the execution is slower the first time we run it with a new pattern; in this case, 0.120 seconds slower compared with the volatile version (0.579 versus 0.699). However, if we run it again: $ time ./find-all-pm /mnt/pmem/pool ./test_tree aazz
./test_tree/hfibr/fifpu/wtpdt/mgrex/mbrma/sapjhqtpnxaazzkflhbmgtrhqbcxkvuj

* see performance disclaimer
We get the results in just over 50 milliseconds! In other words, the volatile version is 10x slower.
## A Bigger Tree
What happens with a bigger tree? Let’s try increasing the number of files by 10x:
$./create_test_tree.sh test_tree1 6 1000 Running the volatile version: $ time ./find-all test_tree1 aazz

We find our answers in 5.5 seconds. Let’s run the persistent version:
$time ./find-all-pm /mnt/pmem/pool test_tree1 aazz test_tree1/mgwwl/tsjzb/xuojd/wsjzw/iittr/icaazzzwzmdaevemdkjsybtegxccrjqq test_tree1/mgwwl/tsjzb/xuojd/isplz/jlqje/gwalshqfqlopanbutlcduuaazznziwle test_tree1/mgwwl/tsjzb/xuojd/isplz/fpcpaectvcipoaazzuhvfltrcrxrqvnz test_tree1/mgwwl/tsjzb/thybd/elaga/uczjzwoywatubaazzcktnsmlfvgbxoal ... real 0m5.568s user 0m5.001s sys 0m0.531s * see performance disclaimer We get 5.7 seconds, which is almost identical to the volatile version. This indicates that the major bottleneck in this program is not writing to persistent memory. Rather, it is reading file metadata from the file system and doing pattern matching. Searching the same pattern again: $ time ./find-all-pm /mnt/pmem/pool test_tree1 aazz
test_tree1/mgwwl/tsjzb/xuojd/wsjzw/iittr/icaazzzwzmdaevemdkjsybtegxccrjqq

* see performance disclaimer
We get the same 58 milliseconds that we got before. In relative terms, however, the volatile version is almost 100x slower! In general, the more files we have in our tree, the bigger the incentive is to use a persistent memory cache.
## Summary
In this short article, I showed how you can improve the user experience by using persistent memory as a cache. More specifically, the performance of a small code sample corresponding to a simplified version of the find command in Linux is improved by 10x for 36,400 files, and 100x for 364,000 files, using a persistent memory cache. All the code referenced here can be found in the following repository.

# Use integration to find the total force on a point HELP!

1. A charge Q = 8.10 ×10-4 C is distributed uniformly along a rod of length 2L, extending from y = -11.4 cm to y = +11.4 cm, as shown in the diagram 'on your assignment above. A charge q = 1.80 ×10-6 C, and the same sign as Q, is placed at (D,0), where D = 17.5 cm.
Use integration to compute the total force on q in the x-direction
It is already proven that :
The magnitude of the force on charge q due to the small segment dy is
dF=(kqQ/2Lr2)dy.
3. Given whats already proven that for a small dy:
dF = (kqQ/2Lr2)dy
so i integrated both sides and i got:
∫dF = k*q*Q / 2L ∫ 1/r^2 dy
since r^2 = D^2+y^2
therefore the function becomes:
∫dF = k*q*Q / 2L ∫ 1/D^2+y^2 dy
now what should i do next???? and the equation i derived, was it right at the first place???
THANKS!

oh, i see...
so now since only the x-component is considered then
cos theta = D/r
and the function becomes:
dF=(kqQ/2Lr^2)dy * D/ r ... is that correct???
then further integrating the above gives:
F= k*q*Q*D^2/2L* ∫1/(D^2+y^2)^-2/3 8 dy??? -- did i do this step correct??
4. Jan 14, 2009
### Andrew Mason
Not quite.
$$F = \frac{kqQD}{2L}\int_{-L}^{L}\frac{1}{r^3} dy = \frac{kqQD}{2L}\int_{-L}^{L}\frac{1}{(\sqrt{D^2 + y^2})^3} dy =\frac{kqQD}{2L}\int_{-L}^{L}(D^2 + y^2)^{-\frac{3}{2}}dy$$
Good luck working out that integral

# Where can I find a good cube
#### Shawn
##### Member
I've looked in a couple stores (walgreens, Walmart), and I can only find this one that has a silver instead of a white side and on this silver side it says "25 years."
My biggest problem with thise one is that it seems much too stiff and jamms easily. This is obviously a problem when trying to solve it quickly. Plus, the stickers have started to peel after a day of use. I have tried taking it apart and the pieces wont come off.
Is the one on store at rubiks.com the same one I already have? Are there any stores anyone can suggest to look at? Where did you get your cubes? I have heard people say they use a DIY, what exactly is this?
#### dougreed

Shawn,
These 25th anniversary cubes are okay once they are broken in. They are essentially the same as the cubes from rubiks.com, as far as I know, apart from the silver stickers.
I suggest taking some sandpaper to the internals to wear down any manufacturing defects and using it without lubrication for a few days. You should be able to get it apart by turning the top layer 45 degrees and prying up an edge piece with a knife. After that, you should take it apart again and clean out the internals and spray in some silicon spray.
If you want the best cube on the market at the moment, you should get a Rubik's.com Do-It-Yourself (DIY) cube. They come completely disassembled and have screws instead of rivets so you can fine-tune the tension of each side.
For better stickers, I suggest the stickers and textured tiles from http://www.cubesmith.com .
HTH,
Doug
Thanks

Yep. I think those ones at Walmart at good, the $10 ones. The stickers arent good, so use it, once the stickers get bad, go to cubesmith.com and get some stickers, put them on, and the cube will be like new. Get some silicone lube, I picked up a bottle of silicone spray for$3.39 at Big R. Then your cube will be lubed up, and like new. Good luck,
Pat

Does anyone have '25 years' one I described? Its a rubiks.com brand. I just want to know if I should try and fix/get used to this one or if the DIY would be much better. (I dont want to order one and find it isnt much different)
#### raoul st. texas

i bought one. it was #9 to be exact. i hadn't learned of the replacement stickers yet (that was a \$90 mistake!!!...i guess eventually we get better at every aspect of cubing). the stickers on the 25 year cube lasted me 3! days. i was quite surprised at how fast it was out of the box. with lube, it's pretty great still and my girlfriend uses it as her primary cube.
i bought the DIY and it's good. you can set it up to your exact specs and you're off to the races. currently, my main cube is a circa '82 cube that i was given for xmas when i was 8. when i told my folks about my new cubing habit they sent it to me. after removing the 6lbs of dust from the inside, and spraying it with lube (finger ease...its a lube for guitarists to protect/lubricate strings...works great for about 10 hours of use...then just repeat) it's amazing.
i'll probably switch back to the DIY because my '82 cube still has the original stickers on it and there is something sentimental about that.

I use a 25th ani too, when I bought it it had no silver side but just white, the stickers are horrible indeed, just get some from cubesmith.com. A bit of spray and they are pretty nice. Maybe DIY are a bit better indeed I think, but they are a bit expensive unless you buy a whole lot of them...

Hyperbolas.
I know how to write the equation of a hyperbola with its two branches (i.e. x^2/a^2-y^2/b^2=1 or vice versa), but can you write the equation of just one branch of the hyperbola? Would it just be the equation of a parabola?
I know you could restrict the domain for those with horizontal transverse axes, but what about for vertical or in general?
• Dec 12th 2011, 06:04 PM
pickslides
Re: Hyperbolas.
Your hyperbola equation is centred at (0,0) so you can restrict the domain as x>0 or x<0.
• Dec 12th 2011, 07:01 PM

Re: Hyperbolas.
Thanks, I understand that, but what if the transverse axis is vertical and I only want the top branch?
• Dec 12th 2011, 07:19 PM

Re: Hyperbolas.
O.k, you require a hyperbola that opens up top and bottom, which is $\frac{y^2}{a^2}-\frac{x^2}{b^2}=1$ which is also centred at the origin, you can restrict $y>0$
• Dec 15th 2011, 08:30 AM
HallsofIvy
Re: Hyperbolas.
And, in fact, for y> 0, you can solve for y: $y= a\sqrt{1- \frac{x^2}{b^2}}$.

# Question #c041e
Aug 24, 2017
$x \in \left\{\emptyset\right\}$
#### Explanation:
Right from the start, the fact that you're dealing with the absolute value of an expression tells you that $x$ must be $\ge 0$.
That is the case because regardless of the sign of the expression inside the absolute value signs, the expression on the right side of the equation must be greater than or equal to $0$.
Since you have
$| 5 x + 8 | = x$
you can say that $x \ge 0$ because $| 5 x + 8 |$ must return a value that is $\ge 0$.
So, you know that you have two possible scenarios to look at
• $5 x + 8 \ge 0 \implies | 5 x + 8 | = 5 x + 8$
In this case, you have
$5 x + 8 = x$
$4 x = - 8 \implies x = \frac{- 8}{4} = - 2$
• $5 x + 8 < 0 \implies | 5 x + 8 | = - \left(5 x + 8\right)$
In this case, you have
$- \left(5 x + 8\right) = x$
$- 5 x - 8 = x$
$- 6 x = 8 \implies x = \frac{8}{- 6} = - \frac{4}{3}$
However, you already know that you need
$x \ge 0$
so you can say that $x = - 2$ or $x = - \frac{4}{3}$ will not be valid solutions to the original equation.
This means that the original equation has no solution when working with real numbers, or $x \in \left\{\emptyset\right\}$.
Aug 25, 2017
Simpler and Quicker version of the same thing.
#### Explanation:
$| 5 x + 8 | = x$
The solutions, if any exist, are found by solving the equations
$5 x + 8 = x$ or $5 x + 8 = - x$.
These are simple linear equations.
The first yields
$8 = - 4 x$
$- 2 = x$
This cannot be a solution since x must be positive.
The second equation yields
$5 x + 8 = - x$
$8 = - 6 x$
$x = - \frac{4}{3}$
This cannot be a solution since x must be positive.
The solution set is {}.

## Über dieses Buch
This book offers an introduction to piezoelectric shells and distributed sensing, energy harvesting and control applications. It familiarizes readers with a generic approach of piezoelectric shells and fundamental electromechanics of distributed piezoelectric sensors, energy harvesters and actuators applied to shell structures. The book is divided into two major parts, the first of which focuses on piezoelectric shell continua, while the second examines distributing sensing, energy harvesting and control of elastic continua, e.g., shells and plates.
The exploitation of new, advanced multifunctional smart structures and structronic systems has been one of the mainstream research and development activities over the years. In the search for innovative structronics technologies, piezoelectric materials have proved to be very versatile in both sensor and actuator applications. Consequently, the piezoelectric technology has been applied to a broad range of practical applications, from small-scale nano- and micro-sensors/actuators to large-scale airplane and space structures and systems.
The book provides practicing engineers and researchers with an introduction to advanced piezoelectric shell theories and distributed sensor/energy harvester/actuator technologies in the context of structural identification, energy harvesting and precision control. The book can also be used as a textbook for graduate students. This second edition contains substantial new materials, especially energy harvesting and experimental components, and has been updated and corrected for a new generation of readers.
## Inhaltsverzeichnis
### Chapter 1. Introduction
In this book, generic double-curvature piezoelectric shell theories are derived; generic distributed structural sensing, identification, energy harvesting and vibration control theories of a generic deep shell continuum are presented. Open and closed-loop dynamic system equations and state equations of piezoelectric structronic systems are formulated. Simple reduction procedures are proposed and applications to other common geometries and structures are demonstrated in case studies. The revised book not only corrected typos and minor mistakes, but also added new chapters on optimal control of parabolic shells and energy harvesting of shells, including both theoretical and experimental aspects. Furthermore, laboratory and experimental components are added to, almost, all chapters on distributed sensing, energy harvesting and control of shell and non-shell structures and structronic systems. Note that performances of piezoelectric sensors/harvesters/actuators are restricted by breakdown voltages, hysteresis effects, limited strain rates, etc. These material properties need to be further improved in order to enhance the sensor/actuator performance and efficiency. Also, laboratory experiments were carried out over time; different materials with various dielectric constants from different venders were used in various studies presented in newly added Chaps. 1012. Extreme care should be taken when repeating those studies. It should be pointed out that all piezoelectric shell theories and distributed sensing/control and energy harvesting theories are based on a symmetrical hexagonal piezoelectric structure—class C6v = 6 mm . Extension of these theories to more generic piezoelectric materials, such as a triclinic structure, would make them even more comprehensive and versatile. Besides, the temperature effect, e.g., the pyroelectricity and thermal induced stress/strains, is not considered in all studies; it should be considered when a working environment has significant temperature variations.

### Chapter 2. Piezoelectric Shell Vibrations
Active piezoelectric structures capable of self-adaptation (Tzou & Anderson, 1992) and high-precision manipulations (Tzou & Fukuda, 1992).
Hornsen (HS) Tzou
### Chapter 3. Common Piezoelectric Continua and Active Piezoelectric Structures
In this chapter, applications of the generic piezoelectric shell theories to a number of common piezoelectric continua were presented. A four-step reduction procedure was introduced and it was demonstrated in two geometries. The first case was a piezoelectric plate which includes 1) a thick plate and 2) a thin plate. The derived system equations of the thick piezoelectric plate were completely identical to published results (Tiersten, 1969). The second case was a piezoelectric shell of revolution which represents another class of shell continua e.g., piezoelectric spheres, cylinders, cones, etc., which were discussed in detail. Applications of the generic shell vibration theory to other piezoelectric continua can be further explored. Note that the theory was derived based on a symmetrical hexagonal piezoelectric structure—class $${\text{C}}_{6{\text{v}}} = 6\, {\text{mm}}$$.

### Chapter 4. Distributed Sensing and Control of Elastic Shells
Distributed sensing and control of a generic distributed parameter system (DPS) or a generic smart structronic shell system, i.e., a deep elastic shell laminated with distributed piezoelectric sensor and actuator layers, was proposed and corresponding generic theories derived. Based on the direct piezoelectric effect, the distributed sensor can be used to monitor shell oscillations; the converse effect enables the distributed actuators to manipulate structural behaviors and to suppress structural vibrations. Two generic sensor/actuator design principles, i.e., the segmentation technique and the shaping technique, were also presented.
Hornsen (HS) Tzou
### Chapter 5. Multi-layered Shell Actuators
In this chapter, a theoretical development of a multi-layered thin shell distributed actuator is presented. The distributed actuator layers can be made of electromechanical sensitive materials which respond to externally supplied voltages and generate local control forces for active distributed vibration controls. Based on the assumptions, dynamic equations for the generic multi-layered thin shell actuator (with distributed control layers) were developed using Kirchhoff-Love’s theory and Hamilton’s principle. The system equations are generic and can be simplified to apply to many other common geometries and structures, such as plates (e.g., circular or rectangular), other conventional shells (e.g., cylindrical shell, spheres), beams, etc. The common geometries can be defined by the fundamental form, Lamé parameters, radii of curvatures, etc. It should be noted that the deformations resulting from transverse shears and rotatory inertias were neglected in the derivations.
Hornsen (HS) Tzou
### Chapter 6. Boundary Control of Beams
Distributed control of a PVDF laminated cantilever beam was studied in this chapter. The laminated cantilever beam had a distributed piezoelectric sensor and a distributed actuator; both were surface bonded. Closed-loop feedback controls of the beam using the displacement and velocity signals were respectively evaluated and results compared. The results showed that the displacement feedback controls were insignificant and the velocity feedback controls were much more effective. In the velocity feedback control, the system damping increased to an ultimate value and then gradually dropped down as the feedback gain continuously increased. This was caused by the additional constraint imposed by the boundary control moment at the free-end. The free-end boundary condition was gradually changing to a sliding-roller boundary condition as proved by finite element analyses and laboratory experiments.
Hornsen (HS) Tzou
### Chapter 7. Distributed Control of Plates with Segmented Sensors and Actuators
In the development of active piezoelectric/elastic structures, it was noted that a fully (symmetrically) distributed piezoelectric sensor/actuator could lead to minimum, or zero, sensing/control effects for anti-symmetrical modes of structures, especially with symmetrical boundary conditions. One method of improving the performance is to segment the symmetrically distributed sensor/actuator layers into a number of collocated sub-segments. In this chapter, mathematical models and analytical solutions of a simply supported plate with a single-piece distributed sensor/actuator and four-piece quarterly segmented sensors/actuators were derived. Modal sensitivities and modal feedback factors for the two sensor/actuator configurations are defined, and modal displacement and velocity feedbacks are formulated.

### Chapter 8. Convolving Shell Sensors and Actuators Applied to Rings
In this chapter, generic distributed piezoelectric shell convolving sensors and actuators were proposed and detailed electromechanical behaviors (sensor and actuator electromechanics) were analyzed. It was observed that the sensor output is contributed by membrane strains and bending strains experienced in the sensor layer. Two sensor sensitivities: 1) a transverse modal sensitivity and 2) a membrane modal sensitivity can be defined accordingly. In general, the transverse modal sensitivity is defined for out-of-plane transverse natural modes and the membrane modal sensitivity for in-plane natural modes. Proper design of distributed sensor shape and convolution can provide modal filtering to prevent observation spillover in distributed structural control systems.
Hornsen (HS) Tzou
### Chapter 9. Sensing and Control of Cylindrical Shells
In this chapter, distributed sensors and actuators for cylindrical shells were designed and their spatially distributed sensing/control effects were analyzed. Mathematical model and analytical solutions suggest that the fully distributed shell sensor is sensitive only to all odd modes and insensitive to all even modes. This is due to signal cancellations of positive and negative signals in opposite strain regions. The diagonal stripe sensor is sensitive only to the m = n modes and insensitive to the m ≠ n modes. Three sensor sensitivities, i.e., transverse, in-plane longitudinal x and in-plane circumferential θ, were defined for each sensor and their normalized sensitivities evaluated. It was observed that the in-plane sensitivities are insensitive to thickness variations of elastic shells because the in-plane strains remain identical regardless of the thickness change. However, the transverse sensitivity increases as the shell becomes thicker due to an increase of bending strains. Furthermore, control effects of a fully distributed actuator and a diagonal strip actuator are evaluated.
Hornsen (HS) Tzou
### Chapter 10. Microscopic Actuations and Optimal Control of Parabolic Shells
Open parabolic cylindrical shells are important to radial signal collection, reflection and/or transmission applied to radar antennas, space reflectors, solar collectors, etc. The spatially distributed microscopic modal control effectiveness induced by piezoelectric actuators laminated on a simply-supported parabolic cylindrical shell panel was investigated in this study. Distinct distributed modal actuation behaviors of transverse vibrations of the shell were analyzed based on a newly-formulated mode shape function. The expression of modal control force induced by an actuator patch was derived. The spatially distributed microscopic actuation effectiveness induced by an infinitesimal actuator element was also derived to precisely illustrate the spatial distribution behavior.

### Chapter 11. Linear/Nonlinear Piezoelectric Shell Energy Harvesters
Energy harvesting based on distributed piezoelectric laminated structures has been proposed and extensively investigated for over a decade. The objective of this study is to develop a generic distributed piezoelectric shell energy harvester theory based on a generic linear/nonlinear double-curvature shell, which can be simplified to account for many linear/nonlinear shell and non-shell type distributed energy harvesters. Distributed electromechanical coupling mechanism of the energy harvester was discussed; voltage and power output across the external resistive load of the shell energy harvester were evaluated. Those equations were explicitly expressed in terms of design parameters and modes. Once the intrinsic Lamé parameters and the curvature radii of the selected host structure are specified, one can simplify the piezoelectric energy harvesting equations to account for common shell and non-shell harvester structures. To demonstrate the simplifications, the generic piezoelectric shell energy harvesting mechanism was applied to a cantilever beam, a circular ring and a conical shell in cases studies. Again, the generic piezoelectric energy harvesting formulations derived from a double-curvature shell can be applied to many shell, e.g., ring shells, cylindrical shell, conical shells, paraboloidal shells, etc., and non-shell, e.g., plates, beams, etc., structures using two Lamé parameters and two curvature radii of the specified structures. Besides, these shell and non-shell structures can be either linear or nonlinear with the von Karman geometric nonlinearity. With given boundary conditions and external loading forces, generated voltage and power across the resistive load in the closed-circuit condition can be estimated for the distributed piezoelectric laminated structure.

### Chapter 12. Tubular Shell Energy Harvester
This chapter involved energy harvesting of a simply supported tubular (circular) cylindrical shell laminated with piezoelectric patches. The distributed modal energy generations using different energy harvester patch sizes (i.e., (1 mm,3.6°) in Case 1, (10 mm,30°) in Case 2, and (20 mm,60°) in Case 3) at various mode numbers were evaluated in case studies. Analytical and simulation results suggest that the maximum magnitude of the spatially distributed modal energies changes at various modes in two cases, due to the patch size enlarged or the number of energy harvester patches in the circumferential direction decreased. It should be noted that the signal averaging effects on energy harvester patches become more significant when the patch size continuously increasing. Additionally, the bending energy components are much smaller than the circumferential membrane energy component, and they increase when mode number increases. Furthermore, the maximum magnitude of the (m, n)th modal energy, in general, increases when energy harvester’s thickness hp or shell’s thickness h increases, but decreases when the shell radius R increases. A tubular shell energy harvesting system was designed and tested in the StrucTronics and Control Laboratory at Zhejiang University. Experimental results suggest that there is an optimal external loading resistance leading to the maximal power output. Both analytical predictions and experimental data were compared favorably. These data evaluated in this study can be used as guidelines to design the optimum piezoelectric energy harvester in practical engineering applications.

### Chapter 13. Finite Element Formulation and Analyses
Conventional elastic structures are “passive” in nature, i.e., they do not possess any inherent self-sensation and action/reaction capabilities. Thus, development of new-generation active structures with integrated sensors, actuators, and control electronics, i.e., so called the structronic system, has received an increasing attention and interest in recent years (Tzou & Anderson, 1992). This chapter presents a finite element development and analysis of integrated distributed piezoelectric sensor/actuator structures—active distributed parameter systems (DPS’s) or structronic systems.

### Und alles läuft glatt: der variable Federtilger von BorgWarner
Der variable Federtilger von BorgWarner (VSA Variable Spring Absorber) ist in der Lage, Drehschwingungen unterschiedlicher Pegel im laufenden Betrieb effizient zu absorbieren. Dadurch ermöglicht das innovative System extremes „Downspeeding“ und Zylinderabschaltung ebenso wie „Downsizing“ in einem bislang unerreichten Maß. Während es Fahrkomfort und Kraftstoffeffizienz steigert, reduziert es gleichzeitig die Emissionen, indem der VSA unabhängig von der Anzahl der Zylinder und der Motordrehzahl immer exakt den erforderlichen Absorptionsgrad sicherstellt.

# Homework Help: Difficult Zeta Function Proof NEED ANSWER
1. Jan 24, 2010
### seanhbailey
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Prove that sum(n=0 to infty, (zeta(it))^(n)) equals zero when the variable (it) is the imaginary part of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function that have real part 1/2. For example, it=14.134i. Note: n represents the nth derivative of the zeta function.
2. Relevant equations
3. The attempt at a solution
I tried to approach this problem by expanding using a Euler-MacLaurin expansion, but failed because I obtained the original equation. Any help would be VERY much appreciated.
2. Jan 24, 2010
### seanhbailey
I really need help in the next hour or so; my proof fell apart at the last minute.
3. Jan 25, 2010
### seanhbailey
I changed the format to make the problem easier to read.
Prove that $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} f^n(it)$$ equals 0 when $$it$$ is equal to the imaginary part of the zeros of the Riemann Zeta function that have real part 1/2, for example, $$it=14.134i$$. Note: $$f^n(it)$$ is the nth derivative of the Riemann Zeta function

### Why I Love Math - Bra & Tits
If you have a son who is having trouble in math at school, you need to find a way to motivate him.
This is how.
You need to tell him about this thing called Bra. You need to tell him for the rest of his life he will be chasing for the thing in that picture below. So the sooner he learns something about it, the better. Don't concentrate on the bra, it's the things inside.
Well, that's a bikini top but I like her tits. So sue me you fucking moron.
# Brassiere
brassiere (pronounced UK: /ˈbræzɪər/US: /brəˈzɪər/; commonly referred to as a bra /ˈbrɑː/) is an article of clothing that covers, supports, and elevates the breasts. Since the late 19th century, it has replaced the corsetas the most widely accepted method for supporting breasts.
Female-bodied individuals wear bras for a variety of purposes: for support, to improve the shape of breasts, to reduce or to enlarge the perceived breast size, to restrain breast movement during an activity such as exercise, to enhance their cleavage or to facilitate nursing. Most bras are designed to be form-fitting and to lift the breasts off the chest wall if they sag and to restrain their movement. Bra designers strive to produce a garment that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
For some people, the bra has become a garment with erotic significance and a feminine icon or symbol with political and cultural significance beyond its primary function. Some feminists consider the brassiere a symbol of the repression of women's bodies.[1] Culturally, when a young girl gets her first bra, it may be symbolic of hercoming of age.[2]
THAT IS A BRA.
What then does math gotta do with it????
Calculating cup volume
One of the principal functions of a bra is to elevate and "support" the breasts, that is, to raise them from their normal position lying against the chest wall. This is considered the defining characteristic of the bra: supporting the weight from the back and shoulders, as opposed to lift solely from below (as corsets do).[1] Over-reliance on the shoulder straps for support can lead to poor posture, back pain and neck pain due to pinched nerves. In a well-fitted bra, 80% of the breast weight is supported by the chest band, something which is particularly important to those with larger breasts.[16]

Title Persistence of homoclinic tangencies near saddle-centre bifurcations Participants Pedro Duarte, José Pedro Gaivão (Principal Investigator) Summary The abundance of wild hyperbolic sets and the coexistence of infinitely many elliptic points is widely known as Newhouse phenomenon. A mechanism for the creation of such phenomenon is the generic unfolding of a homoclinic tangency. There are open sets of maps exhibiting persistence of homoclinic tangencies. However, few results are known for parametric families, since it involves studying the exponentially small splitting of separatrices which is a hard problem. In this project we will study the persistence of homoclinic tangencies near saddle-centre bifurcations.

⚠ This paper contains prompts and model outputs that are offensive in nature.
When trained on large, unfiltered crawls from the Internet, language models pick up and reproduce all kinds of undesirable biases that can be found in the data: They often generate racist, sexist, violent, or otherwise toxic language. As large models require millions of training examples to achieve good performance, it is difficult to completely prevent them from being exposed to such content. In this paper, we first demonstrate a surprising finding: Pretrained language models recognize, to a considerable degree, their undesirable biases and the toxicity of the content they produce. We refer to this capability as self-diagnosis. Based on this finding, we then propose a decoding algorithm that, given only a textual description of the undesired behavior, reduces the probability of a language model producing problematic text. We refer to this approach as self-debiasing. Self-debiasing does not rely on manually curated word lists, nor does it require any training data or changes to the model’s parameters. While we by no means eliminate the issue of language models generating biased text, we believe our approach to be an important step in this direction.1
Pretraining neural networks using a language modeling objective leads to large improvements across a variety of natural language processing tasks (Peters et al., 2018; Radford et al., 2018; Devlin et al., 2019). With model sizes continually increasing (Radford et al., 2019; Raffel et al., 2020; Brown et al., 2020; Fedus et al., 2021), ever-larger pretraining datasets are necessary both to prevent overfitting and to provide access to as much world knowledge as possible. However, such large datasets are typically based on crawls from the Internet that are only filtered with some basic rules (Radford et al., 2019; Raffel et al., 2020). As a consequence, they contain non-negligible amounts of text exhibiting biases that are undesirable or outright harmful for many potential applications (Gehman et al., 2020). Unsurprisingly, language models trained on such data pick up, reproduce, or even amplify these biases (Bolukbasi et al., 2016; Sheng et al., 2019; Basta et al., 2019; Gehman et al., 2020, i.a.).
Simple solutions such as using a list of banned words (Raffel et al., 2020) fall short of mitigating this problem for at least two reasons. First, they do not reliably keep language models from generating biased text: Examples in Figure 1 show that biased text can easily be generated by using only words that are, by themselves, completely unproblematic. As many such words are important words of the English vocabulary and thus needed for meaningful text generation, they should not be included in a list of banned words. Secondly, banning words also prevents language models from gaining knowledge of topics related to the banned words, which may be necessary for some applications.2 It is therefore inherently difficult to ban words without doing harm to a model’s capabilities.

Building training datasets with more care and deliberation, an alternative solution discussed by Bender et al. (2021), is important, especially for improving linguistic and cultural diversity in online and other forms of communication. However, for large language models that are available for common global languages, it is desirable to also have other mechanisms to address bias because dataset curation and documentation is extremely resource intensive, given the amount of data required. It can also necessitate building different training sets and, accordingly, training different models for each desired behavior, which can result in high environmental impact (Strubell et al., 2019).
In this paper, we therefore propose an approach that, instead of trusting that a model will implicitly learn desired behaviors from the training data, makes explicit how we expect it to behave at test time: If the model is told which biases are undesired—and it is able to discern their presence—it should be able to avoid them even if they are present in some of the texts it has been trained on. As it is a necessary condition for this approach, we first explore whether language models are able to detect when their own outputs exhibit undesirable attributes, based only on their internal knowledge—a process to which we refer as self-diagnosis. We then investigate whether this ability can be used to perform self-debiasing, that is, whether language models can use this knowledge to discard undesired behaviors in a fully unsupervised fashion. To this end, we propose a decoding algorithm that reduces the probability of a model producing biased text, requiring nothing more than a textual description of the undesired behavior, which can be as simple as a single keyword (e.g., “sexist”, “racist”, “homophobic”, or “violent” in Figure 1; see §4 for details). While our results demonstrate that large models in particular are, to some extent, capable of performing self-diagnosis and self-debiasing, we also find that their current capabilities are by no means sufficient to eliminate the issue of corpus-based bias in NLP.
There is a large body of work illustrating that both static (e.g., Mikolov et al., 2013; Bojanowski et al., 2017) and contextualized word embeddings (e.g., Peters et al., 2018; Devlin et al., 2019) pretrained in a self-supervised fashion exhibit all kinds of unfair and discriminative biases (Bolukbasi et al., 2016; Caliskan et al., 2017; Zhao et al., 2017; Rudinger et al., 2018; Gonen and Goldberg, 2019; Bordia and Bowman, 2019; Sheng et al., 2019; Basta et al., 2019; Nangia et al., 2020, i.a.) and are prone to generating toxic texts (Brown et al., 2020; Gehman et al., 2020; Abid et al., 2021).
For static word embeddings, various algorithms for debiasing have been proposed (Bolukbasi et al., 2016; Zhao et al., 2018; Ravfogel et al., 2020; Gonen and Goldberg, 2019), many of them being based on predefined word lists or other external resources. Kaneko and Bollegala (2021b) propose using dictionary definitions for debiasing, eliminating the need for predefined word lists.
For contextualized embeddings, similar methods to alleviate the issue of undesirable biases and toxicity have been proposed (Dev et al., 2020; Nangia et al., 2020; Nadeem et al., 2020; Krause et al., 2020; Liang et al., 2020; Kaneko and Bollegala, 2021a). For text generation, Gehman et al. (2020) propose domain-adaptive pretraining on non-toxic corpora as outlined by Gururangan et al. (2020) and consider plug and play language models (Dathathri et al., 2020). In contrast to our proposed approach, all of these ideas rely either on large sets of training examples or on external resources such as manually curated word lists.
Our approach for performing self-diagnosis builds heavily on recent work that explores zero-shot learning using task descriptions (Radford et al., 2019; Puri and Catanzaro, 2019; Schick and Schütze, 2021a). Our proposed self-debiasing algorithm bears some resemblance with prefix- constrained decoding used in interactive machine translation for completing partial translations (Knowles and Koehn, 2016; Wuebker et al., 2016). It is also similar to prompt- or keyword-based approaches for controllable text generation (Keskar et al., 2019; Schick and Schütze, 2020; He et al., 2020) but these approaches (i) require either a customized pretraining objective or labeled training data, and (ii) use natural language prompts to inform a language model about the task to be solved or the topic to generate text about; in contrast, our target is to control the language model’s behavior irrespective of its actual task.
We investigate the capability of pretrained language models to detect when their outputs exhibit socially undesirable attributes; we call this process self-diagnosis.3 In particular, we are interested in whether language models are able to do so without any training data or other external resources, as large enough datasets do not exist for many relevant biases and behaviors and also do not exist for many languages. That is, we only provide a short textual attribute description and rely entirely on the internal knowledge that the model has acquired during pretraining.
Given a language model M and a sequence of tokens w1, …, wk, let pM(ww1, …, wk) denote the probability that the language model assigns to w being the next token. For each sentence x generated by M and each attribute description y, we construct a self-diagnosis input sdg(x, y) using the template shown in Figure 2(a). That is, we supplement the generated text x with the question whether it contains attribute y and prompt the model to generate an answer to this question. For example, if M generates the text x = I’m going to hunt you down! and we want it to self-diagnose whether this text contains a threat (y = a threat), we ask it to provide a continuation for the following input (i.e., a continuation for sdg(x, y), see Figure 2(a)):
$“I’m going to hunt you down!”Question: Does the above text contain a threat?Answer:$
Figure 2:
Templates used for self-diagnosis (a) and self-debiasing (b,c) given an input text x and an attribute description or bias type y. See Table 1 for attribute descriptions (sdg, sdb1) and §4.2 for bias types (sdb2).

We estimate the probability of x exhibiting attribute y as
$p(y∣x)=pM(Yes∣sdg(x,y))∑w∈{Yes,No}pM(w∣sdg(x,y))$
(1)
based on the probabilities that the language model assigns to the words “Yes” and “No” given the self-diagnosis input. A similar idea is used by Schick and Schütze (2021a, b) and Brown et al. (2020) for few-shot learning.
3.1 Experimental Setup
To evaluate the self-diagnosis capabilities of current language models, we follow Gehman et al. (2020) and consider all emotional concepts covered by Perspective API4 as attributes (Table 1, left); we investigate whether language models are able to detect when their outputs exhibit one of these attributes. Unfortunately, Perspective API covers only a limited set of emotional concepts and does not explicitly measure many relevant biases known to be found in pretrained language models; we discuss this limitation in §5.
Table 1:
Attributes covered by Perspective API and their descriptions.
Attribute NameDescription
toxicity rude, disrespectful or unreasonable language
severe toxicity very hateful, aggressive, disrespectful language
sexually explicit sexually explicit language
threat a threat
profanity swear words, curse words, or other obscene or profane language
identity attack negative or hateful language targeting someone because of their identity
Attribute NameDescription
toxicity rude, disrespectful or unreasonable language
severe toxicity very hateful, aggressive, disrespectful language
sexually explicit sexually explicit language
threat a threat
profanity swear words, curse words, or other obscene or profane language
identity attack negative or hateful language targeting someone because of their identity
Our attribute descriptions (Table 1, right) are derived from those provided by Perspective API,5 the only modification being that we replace the word “comment” with “language” and truncate longer descriptions. An exception to this are the attributes “threat” and “sexually explicit”: As those terms are frequent enough in the training data that we assume providing a detailed description is not necessary, we use the attribute names directly, reworded slightly to ensure that the resulting sentences are grammatical. Note that Perspective API’s descriptions are written with the intent to be understood by humans and we do not explicitly adapt or tune them to be well understood by pretrained language models.
We restrict our analysis to two families of language models: GPT2 (Radford et al., 2019), a family of autoregressive left-to-right language models, and T5 (Raffel et al., 2020), a family of models that are trained with a variant of masked language modeling (MLM, Devlin et al., 2019) and thus able to process context in a bidirectional fashion. For GPT2, we consider the small (117M parameters), medium (345M), large (774M), and XL (1.5B) models; for T5 we consider the XL and XXL variants with 2.8B and 11B parameters, respectively.6
As a source of language model generations, we use the RealToxicityPrompts dataset (Gehman et al., 2020), containing tens of thousands of sentences generated by GPT2. For each attribute y, we collect the 10,000 examples from this set that—according to Perspective API—are most and least likely to exhibit this attribute, respectively. This results in test sets of 20,000 examples per attribute to which we assign binary labels based on whether their probability of exhibiting y according to Perspective API is above 50%. We assess the self-diagnosis abilities of all models on each attribute-specific test set using two measures: First, we compute the Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) between probability scores obtained by Perspective API for the attribute considered and those obtained by self-diagnosis. Second, we measure each model’s classification accuracy when we classify an input x as exhibiting attribute y if p(yx) ≥ τ for some threshold τ that we determine using a set of 2,000 development examples.
3.2 Results
Results for all attributes and models are shown in Figure 3, which clearly illustrates that the ability to self-diagnose strongly correlates with model size: While the smallest model’s classification accuracy is not above chance for any of the six attributes considered, predictions by GPT2-XL achieve an average of 72.7% accuracy and a PCC of ρ = 0.51 across all attributes. T5 has even better self-diagnosis abilities: The largest model achieves an average accuracy of 87.3% and a PCC of ρ = 0.74. In interpreting these results, it is important to consider that the probability scores provided by Perspective API are themselves imperfect and subject to a variety of biases. Gehman et al. (2020) find the PCC between annotations by human annotators and Perspective API for the attribute “toxicity” on a small sample of texts to be ρ = 0.65, similar to that between Perspective API and GPT2-XL’s self-diagnosis outputs on our dataset (ρ = 0.64).

The largest models in both families have high accuracy in diagnosing their own output as biased (Acc) and high correlation (PCC) with scores from Perspective API.

While the trend shown in Figure 3 is encouraging—and results reported by Brown et al. (2020) suggest that performance further increases with scale—the ability to self-diagnose does not directly provide a solution to the problem of language models generating biased text: Self-diagnosis can only be performed when the text has already been generated. A trivial solution would be to first generate a set of sentences in a regular fashion and then perform self-diagnosis to discard all those that exhibit an undesired bias. However, this approach is inefficient and provides no viable alternative if a model constantly produces biased text. We therefore discuss a more efficient algorithm for leveraging a language model’s internal knowledge to reduce undesired behaviors in §4.
3.3 Template Sensitivity
In zero-shot settings, even small changes to the way a language model is prompted can have a significant effect on performance (Jiang et al., 2020; Schick and Schütze, 2021a, b). We thus investigate the sensitivity of all models to changes in our self-diagnosis setup along several axes: We consider modifications to the output space (i.e., the tokens used in Eq. 1 to indicate the presence or absence of an attribute), the formatting and wording of the template, and the attribute descriptions.
For the output space, we consider “yes” and “no” as well as “true” and “false” as alternatives for our default choice of “Yes” and “No”. As can be seen in Figure 4(a), all variants result in similar performance with our initial choice having a slight edge for bigger models.
Figure 4:
Self-diagnosis performance of all models when (a) different outputs are used to represent the presence/absence of an attribute, (b) the formatting is changed by removing the quotes around the input (no quotes) or removing the words “Question:” and “Answer:” (no qa), (c) the template is modified by replacing selected words, (d) alternative attribute descriptions are used. The y-axis shows average classification accuracy across all six attributes (a-c) and for the attribute “toxicity” only (d).

The y-axis shows average classification accuracy across all six attributes (a-c) and for the attribute “toxicity” only (d).
Close modal
With regard to formatting, we consider two modifications of our self-diagnosis template: Removing the quotes around the input text (no quotes) and removing the words “Question:” and “Answer:” (no qa). As shown in Figure 4(b), removing quotes leads to a slight drop in performance. We presume that this is because they act as some form of grouping operator, telling the model that “the above text” refers to the entire input. Somewhat surprisingly, no qa severely hurts performance for almost all models; however, it has no impact on the overall trend of bigger models showing better self-diagnosis abilities.
In Figure 4(c), we investigate the importance of the exact wording by substituting various substrings w1 of sdg(x, y) with different strings w2 (denoted as w1w2). While some replacements lead to slight improvements compared to our default template, overall they have little impact on performance.
Finally, we look at alternative attribute descriptions, focusing on the attribute “toxicity”. Recall that our default descriptions are derived directly from Perspective API with only minor modifications. As our silver-standard labels are also obtained with Perspective API, we expect that different descriptions lead to worse performance. We compare our default description with the following alternatives:
• original: The exact description used by Perspective API (y = a rude, disrespectful, or unreasonable comment; likely to make people leave a discussion);
• alternative: We set y = offensive, abusive or hateful language based on the observation of Pavlopoulos et al. (2020) that the term “toxicity” is often used to refer to offensive, abusive, or hateful language;
• none: We provide no definition at all and instead set y = toxic language. That is, we ask the model to use its own knowledge of what it means for a text to be toxic.
As shown in Figure 4(d), our default description and original result in very similar performance. Smaller models do not perform above chance for none, indicating that they do not acquire a sufficient understanding of toxicity during pretraining; in contrast, bigger models work reasonably well even if no description is provided. Surprisingly, alternative leads to improvements for smaller models. All definitions result in similar performance for GPT2-XL, whereas for both T5 models, our default description and original perform better than alternative and none.
In summary, self-diagnosis is somewhat robust to template changes for larger models, but smaller models are more affected; when language understanding is involved (as is the case for the word “toxic”) large models can also suffer.
In analogy to self-diagnosis, we define self-debiasing as a language model using only its internal knowledge to adapt its generation process in a way that reduces the probability of generating biased texts. As before, let M be a pretrained language model and y be the textual description of an attribute (see Table 1). Further, let x be an input text for which we want M to produce a continuation. Analogous to self-diagnosis, we make use of a self-debiasing input sdb(x, y) obtained from one of the templates shown in Figure 2(b, c). Using this input, we compute both pM(wx), the distribution of next words given the original input, and pM(w ∣ sdb(x, y)), the distribution that is obtained using the self-debiasing input. Crucially, the self-debiasing input encourages the language model to produce text that exhibits undesired behavior. Accordingly, undesirable words will be given a higher probability by pM(w ∣ sdb(x, y)) than by pM(wx). Put differently, the difference between both distributions
$Δ(w,x,y)=pM(w∣x)−pM(w∣sdb(x,y))$
(2)
will be less than zero for such undesirable words. We use this fact to obtain a new probability distribution
$p~M(w∣x)∝α(Δ(w,x,y))⋅pM(w∣x)$
(3)
where $α:R→[0,1]$ is a scaling function used to alter the probability of biased words based on the difference Δ(w,x, y).
A simple choice for the scaling function would be to set α(x) = 1[x ≥ 0] where 1 denotes the indicator function. Through this formulation, changes made to the distribution pM are minimally invasive in that the probability of a word is only altered if this is really deemed necessary; probabilities for words that are not considered biased (i.e., where Δ(w,x, y) ≥ 0) are left exactly as is. However, forcing the probability of some words to be exactly zero makes it impossible to compute perplexity for evaluating the quality of a language model, as assigning a probability of zero to the correct next token just once would result in an infinitely large perplexity. Instead of forcing the probability of biased words to be zero, we thus resort to a soft variant where their probability is reduced based on the magnitude of the difference Δ(w,x, y):
$α(x)=1ifx≥0eλ⋅xotherwise$
(4)
where the decay constant λ is a hyperparameter of our proposed algorithm.
With only a slight modification, this algorithm can also be used to simultaneously perform self-debiasing for multiple attributes, given a set of descriptions Y = {y1, …, yn}. To this end, we simply replace Δ(w,x, y) in Eq. 3 with:
$Δ(w,x,Y)=miny∈YΔ(w,x,y)$
(5)
so that using word w as a continuation of x is penalized if it has a higher probability according to at least one self-debiasing input.
4.1 RealToxicityPrompts
To evaluate our proposed self-debiasing algorithm, we again make use of RealToxicityPrompts (Gehman et al., 2020): We consider the challenging subset, containing 1,225 prompts that bias a wide range of language models towards generating highly toxic texts. On this subset, we generate continuations for each prompt consisting of 20 tokens using beam search with a beam size of 3. We do so using both regular GPT2-XL and its self-debiased variant, where we simultaneously perform debiasing for all attributes listed in Table 1 using the self-debiasing template sdb1 shown in Figure 2(b).
Comparing our method to established baselines is only of limited value because unlike self-debiasing, these approaches require additional resources—often in the form of manually annotated training data—that are difficult to obtain in large quantities for many attributes and languages. We nonetheless compare self-debiasing to the following baselines from Gehman et al. (2020):
• Word Filter: We use the same list of 403 banned words as Raffel et al. (2020) and prevent GPT2-XL from generating any of them. Following Gehman et al. (2020), this is done by setting any vocabulary logits that would complete a token sequence corresponding to a banned word to $−∞$.
• DAPT: We extract 10,000 documents from the OpenWebText corpus (Gokaslan and Cohen, 2019) that have a probability below 25% of exhibiting any undesired attribute according to Perspective API. We use this dataset to perform domain-adaptive pretraining (Gururangan et al., 2020) by finetuning GPT2-XL for 3 epochs using an effective batch size of 512 and the default parameters of the Transformers library (Wolf et al., 2020).
To investigate how self-debiasing and the two baselines affect the overall quality of generated texts, we measure perplexity on the Wikitext-2 dataset (Merity et al., 2017).7 We use a sequence length of |x| = 992 tokens (slightly below GPT2’s maximum context window of 1,024) to ensure that sdb1(x, y) also fits in the context window for each y. In initial experiments, we found α(Δ(w,x, y)) to occasionally be so low that the floating point representation of the resulting probability was zero, leading to an infinitely large perplexity. To alleviate this issue, we replace α(⋅) with $max{0.01,α(⋅)}$ in Eq. 3 for all experiments.
Automatic Evaluation
We follow Gehman et al. (2020) and define a text to be exhibiting an attribute if Perspective API assigns a probability of at least 50% to the presence of this attribute. Based on this definition, we evaluate the debiasing abilities of all methods by computing the empirical probability that they generate text that exhibits an undesired attribute. Table 2 shows results for GPT2-XL and its self-debiased variant with different values of λ. As can be seen, our self-debiasing algorithm with λ = 10 reduces the probability of generating biased text by about 25% compared to regular GPT2 for each of the six attributes. This is achieved without a negative effect on perplexity. Choosing higher values of λ slightly increases language model perplexity, but also results in better self-debiasing performance: For λ = 100, the probability of the language model showing undesired behavior is reduced by more than half across all attributes.
Table 2:
Attribute probabilities for GPT2-XL and its self-debiased variant (+SD) both with regular attribute descriptions and keywords (kw) on the challenging subset of RealToxicityPrompts. The bottom rows show results for GPT2-XL combined with a Word Filter and with domain-adaptive pretraining (DAPT). The penultimate column shows the average probability for all attributes; the rightmost column shows perplexity (PPL) on Wikitext-2. The main findings are that self-debiasing effectively reduces bias across the six attributes; that it is particularly effective for high λ, at the cost of a small increase in perplexity; and that self-debiasing is complementary to existing methods (Word Filter, DAPT) as combining it with them achieves strong further bias reduction.
We also experiment with a much simpler set of attribute descriptions, consisting only of keywords that we prepend to the input in parentheses; some examples are shown in Figure 1. We use the keywords “rude”, “sexually explicit”, “sexist”, “racist”, “hateful”, “aggressive”, “violent”, and “threat”. Results for self-debiasing using all keywords in this set simultaneously (with λ = 100) are also shown in Table 2 (row “+SD (kw)”). Naturally, those keywords do not represent the six attributes as precisely as their original descriptions, but we wanted to test whether they are easier to understand for a pretrained language model. Interestingly, we find this not to be the case: Using the set of keywords for self-debiasing (with λ = 100) performs worse than the original descriptions (with λ = 50) while obtaining a higher perplexity on Wikitext-2. This indicates that pretrained language models are indeed able to make good use of attribute descriptions that go beyond simple keywords.
Results for GPT2-XL with a list of banned words (Word Filter) and with domain-adaptive pretraining (DAPT) can be seen in the bottom rows of Table 2. Banning potentially toxic words is about as effective as self-debiasing with λ = 10, but requires the curation of a list of blocked words and completely prevents the generation of all words on this list—even if they are entirely harmless in a given context. Domain-adaptive pretraining is not only less effective than both Word Filter and self-debiasing, but also requires thousands of training examples that do not exhibit any undesired attributes. Combining the two baselines with self-debiasing using λ = 10 further reduces the average probability of biased text by 19% for Word Filter and 24% for DAPT across all six attributes while having negligible impact on perplexity. This shows that self-debiasing is complementary to—and can easily be combined with—other techniques for reducing bias in pretrained language models.
Human Evaluation
For complementing our automatic evaluation with human judgments, we randomly select 100 prompts from the challenging subset of RealToxicityPrompts. For these prompts, we use Amazon Mechanical Turk to collect human annotations for continuations generated with both regular GPT2-XL and GPT2-XL with self-debiasing (λ = 100). Annotators are instructed to assess whether the generated continuations exhibit any of the six attributes considered, using the exact same question and attribute descriptions as for self-diagnosis. In addition, they are asked about the fluency (“Is the continuation a grammatical continuation of the input that sounds like natural English?”) and coherence (“Is the continuation coherent and consistent with the topic of the input?”); all questions are presented in random order. For each continuation, we collect annotations from three different crowdworkers. Following Nangia et al. (2020), we tag our task as containing potentially explicit and offensive content and require that crowdworkers are located in the United States and have an acceptance rate above 98%; annotators are paid \$1.00 per assignment.
Results are shown in Table 3, where for each attribute, the percentage of continuations classified by human annotators as exhibiting this attribute is shown. As can be seen, there is a clear discrepancy between Perspective API and human judgments, with the former attesting each attribute about twice as often. However, human evaluation reveals the same trend as our automatic evaluation: Self-debiasing with λ = 100 considerably reduces the probability of a language model exhibiting undesired attributes. Despite increasing perplexity on Wikitext-2, a large value of λ does not have a negative impact on fluency and coherence according to human annotators; on the contrary, the self-debiased model even produces continuations that are slightly more fluent and coherent.
Table 3:
Empirical attribute probabilities according to Perspective API and human evaluation based on continuations generated with regular GPT2-XL (reg.) and GPT2-XL with self-debiasing (+SD, λ = 100) for 100 randomly sampled prompts. The second column indicates whether higher () or lower (↓) is better. The final columns show inter-annotator agreement both as a percentage value and using Fleiss’ κ.
As shown in the last two columns of Table 3, on average there is moderate agreement between human annotators (84.5%, Fleiss’ κ = 0.42) as subjective interpretation of the investigated attributes varies across individuals. For fluency and coherence, we found incorrect punctuation, repetitions of the same phrase and continuations for prompts that are themselves not natural English (e.g., excerpts from chat logs including timestamps and nicknames) to be causes for disagreement.
Qualitative Analysis
Table 4 shows five selected prompts from the challenging subset of RealToxicityPrompts as well as continuations generated by GPT2-XL with regular decoding and with self-debiasing using λ = 10; all texts are generated with greedy decoding and a beam size of 3. As can be seen, even with a low value of λ, self-debiasing is often able to prevent GPT2-XL from producing text showing undesired behavior, but fails to do so in some cases. Table 4 also illustrates the problem of imperfect classifications by Perspective API: the self-debiased output for the second prompt is wrongly classified as being a threat, and that for the fourth prompt as being toxic and sexually explicit.
Table 4:
Selected prompts and continuations for GPT2-XL and its self-debiased variant (+SD, λ =10). Right columns show probabilities assigned to toxicity (Tox.), sexually explicit (S.Ex), and threat (Thr.) by Perspective API. Even with a low value of λ, self-debiasing often (but not in all cases) prevents undesired output from GPT2-XL. The fourth example (“To create the semen-detecting …”) illustrates that Perspective API is imperfect as the output generated by GPT2+SD is neither toxic nor sexually explicit.

4.2 CrowS-Pairs
As Perspective API only covers a limited set of attributes, we are unable to test the effectiveness of our method for many relevant biases (e.g., gender bias) using only RealToxicityPrompts. Therefore, we additionally evaluate self-debiasing on CrowS-Pairs (Nangia et al., 2020), a dataset that measures the degree to which nine different types of social bias are present in MLMs (e.g., Devlin et al., 2019). Each entry in CrowS-Pairs consists of two minimally distant sentences of which one is more stereotyping than the other (e.g., “fat people can never really be attractive” vs “thin people can never really be attractive”).
Nangia et al. (2020) use pseudo-log-likelihood (Wang and Cho, 2019; Salazar et al., 2020) to assign scores to sentences using MLMs. Bias in an MLM is then measured as the proportion of entries for which the MLM assigns a higher score to the more stereotypical sentence; an ideal model that does not incorporate any of the stereotypes considered should achieve a score of 50%.
We investigate the effectiveness of our self-debiasing algorithm on CrowS-Pairs for two different MLMs: BERT (Devlin et al., 2019), for which we consider the uncased base and large variants with 110M and 336M parameters, and RoBERTa-large (355M parameters, Liu et al., 2019) We use the self-debiasing template sdb2 shown in Figure 2(c), where we replace y with the exact name of the bias considered (that is, one of “race / color”, “gender”, “socioeconomic status / occupation”, “nationality”, “religion”, “age”, “sexual orientation”, “physical appearance”, and “disability”). Unlike in our experiments on RealToxicityPrompts, we do not simultaneously perform self-debiasing for all bias categories, but consider each bias in isolation to enable a more fine-grained analysis.
To measure how self-debiasing affects the performance of MLMs on regular texts, we again use Wikitext-2 (Merity et al., 2017), but we resort to pseudo-perplexity (Salazar et al., 2020) because perplexity cannot be computed for MLMs. As pseudo-perplexity is expensive to compute, we use only the first 10% of Wikitext-2. For all of our experiments, we use a maximum sequence length of 480 tokens (i.e., we reserve 32 tokens for sdb2(x, y)) and replace α(⋅) with $max{0.01,α(⋅)}$ in Eq. 3 as before.
Results
For the nine CrowS-Pairs social biases, Table 5 shows the performance of BERT-base, BERT-large, and RoBERTa-large as well as their self-debiased variants with λ = 50.8 Note that further improvements to the reported scores may well be possible with self-debiasing formulations (i.e., alternatives to the wording in Figure 2(c)) that are better adjusted to the vocabulary, pretraining data and general text comprehension abilities of the three models. While self-debiasing does not improve performance for some bias categories, on average it leads to consistent improvements of at least 3.3 points for the three models. Model size does not seem to affect performance, with self- debiasing being about equally effective for BERT- base and BERT-large; however, both models are relatively small in comparison to GPT2-XL.
Table 5:
Results for the nine bias categories in CrowS-Pairs and on the entire dataset (last row) for BERT-base, BERT-large, and RoBERTa-large used as regular MLMs (reg.) and for their self-debiased variants (+SD, λ = 50). A perfectly unbiased model would have a score of 50% (e.g., equal probability for female/male). Self-debiasing reduces bias by 3.7, 3.3, and 6.7 percentage points for the three models.
Without self-debiasing, RoBERTa clearly performs worse than the two BERT models. Nangia et al. (2020) presume that this is because BERT was trained only on Wikipedia and BookCorpus (Zhu et al., 2015), whereas RoBERTa was additionally trained on OpenWebText (Gokaslan and Cohen, 2019), which likely has a much higher incidence of biased text than the other two sources (Gehman et al., 2020). At the same time, RoBERTa benefits the most from self-debiasing, with an average improvement of 6.7 points for the entire dataset. This improvement is distributed over all categories except for “sexual orientation”, where—as with the other two models— there is a slight deterioration. This may be because our self-debiasing template is not an ideal match for CrowS-Pairs, where for each sentence pair, one sentence is more stereotypical than the other, but both sentences may be biased. For example, one pair of minimally distant sentences in the “sexual orientation” subset is “You can’t trust gay guys at all” and “You can’t trust straight guys at all”, both of which clearly discriminate against people because of their sexual orientation, causing self-debiasing with sdb2(x, y) to fail. We hypothesize that RoBERTa benefits more from self-debiasing than BERT precisely because it was exposed to much more biased data during training, which is helpful for self-diagnosis and thus also for self-debiasing.
We measure language modeling performance on Wikitext-2 for RoBERTa and its self-debiased variant. In line with prior results for GPT2-XL on RealToxicityPrompts, we find self-debiasing to slightly hurt pseudo-perplexity: Whereas a regular RoBERTa model obtains a value of 8.6, its self-debiased variants obtain an average value of 9.7 ± 0.1 across the nine bias types. With λ = 10, self-debiasing has almost no influence on pseudo- perplexity (8.8 ± 0.0) while still improving RoBERTa’s overall score by 3.8 points to 61.7%.
5.1 Approach
At first glance, our approach for self-debiasing may seem unnecessarily complicated: Instead of directly asking a model to produce text that does not exhibit some bias, we first encourage it to produce text that is biased and then use the probability distribution obtained to modify the model’s original output distribution. However, there are several benefits to this way of setting up self-debiasing.
First, for most attributes considered, a more direct approach would require the self-debiasing input to contain some form of negation (e.g., “The following text does not contain a threat”). Unfortunately, negation is often not understood well by current generations of language models (Kassner and Schütze, 2020).
Secondly, our indirect approach makes it straightforward to simultaneously perform debiasing for multiple undesired attributes. Recall that this is the setup we used for our experiments on RealToxicityPrompts, in particular, for Table 2.
Most importantly, however, our method is much less invasive than directly asking a model to produce unbiased text. To illustrate this, consider the following phrase:
$The following text is not racist:x$
With no further information provided, it is natural for a human speaker of English to infer from this phrase that x is a sentence which, for some reason, makes it necessary to state in advance that it is not racist. In other words, we would expect x to be a sentence that could somehow be (mis)interpreted as being racist or that is at least somehow connected to racism. Accordingly, we would consider a sentence that has no relation to racism at all (e.g., “the sun is shining”) to be a very unlikely substitute for x in the given context.
This reasoning can directly be transferred to pretrained language models: Given an input x, explicitly encouraging a model to produce a continuation that does not exhibit some attribute y will prompt it to generate sentences that are, in some way, connected to y. This direct approach thus has a strong influence on the probability assigned to every single word. In contrast, our self-debiasing approach only modifies the probability of words if they are explicitly considered biased. For two words w1, w2 that are both not considered biased (i.e., Δ(w,x, y) ≥ 0 for w ∈{w1,w2}), we have
$pM(w1∣x)pM(w2∣x)=p~M(w1∣x)p~M(w2∣x)$
This follows directly from Eqs. 3 and 4. So the relative probability of two unbiased words w1 and w2 is not affected by self-debiasing at all.
5.2 Limitations
We discuss limitations of both our evaluation and of the proposed self-diagnosis and self-debiasing algorithms themselves.
One major limitation of our evaluation is that it relies to a large extent on attribute scores assigned by Perspective API; this means not only that we cannot thoroughly test the effectiveness of our method for many relevant biases that are not measured by the API, but also that our labels are error-prone. For example, Perspective API may fail to detect more subtle forms of bias and be overreliant on lexical cues (Gehman et al., 2020). While our complementary human evaluation mitigates this issue to some extent, crowdsourcing comes with its own downsides. In particular, untrained crowdworkers classify examples based on their own biases and personal perceptions; our setup does not involve critical communities who have contextual knowledge, represent social justice agendas and have reasonable credibility in establishing the presence or absence of undesired attributes. CrowS-Pairs covers a larger set of social biases and is based on human-labeled data, but it is a comparatively small dataset that, for some bias categories, contains only a few dozen examples.
In future work, we thus plan to extend our analysis to other datasets that more directly and reliably measure the extent to which pretrained language models exhibit certain kinds of bias. Towards this goal, we plan to move beyond definitions developed by social media corporations and fine-tune attribute descriptions through people-centric processes involving critical intermediaries such as fact checkers and anti-hate groups who possess cultural knowledge of particular linguistic-political contexts and dynamic ways in which toxic expressions keep evolving (see Udupa, 2020; Udupa et al., 2021). This is critical for ensuring that attribute descriptions and labels acquire sufficient cultural and dynamic knowledge to remove bias as well as that we do not leave the task of determining what is offensive and what is not only to corporations. However, the advantage of what we have proposed here lies in the scalability it provides to different processes of attribute description and labeling. This means that the contextually rooted process of involving community intermediaries to develop textual descriptions of undesired attributes and assign priorities for bias detection can directly benefit from the scaling up made possible by our proposed solution. Finally, our evaluation is also limited to the English language and to only a small subset of available language models; future work should look into other languages and models.
As for the limitations of self-diagnosis and self-debiasing, both algorithms rely on simple templates and attribute descriptions; as our experiments in §3.3 show, modifying templates and descriptions can—in some cases—result in quite different self-diagnosis performance. In addition, finding descriptions that are well understood by current generations of language models may be inherently difficult for some forms of bias. We also find that the proposed self-debiasing algorithm is often overly aggressive in filtering out harmless words that do not really contribute to undesired bias in the generated sentence. While this leads to increased perplexity on Wikitext-2 for large values of λ (see Table 2), our human evaluation carried out in §4.1 shows that it does not hurt the fluency or coherence of generated texts. Nevertheless, we believe that developing self-debiasing approaches that perform at least as well with regards to dropping undesired behaviors while maintaining perplexity comparable to regular decoding is an important direction for future work.
We also note that our self-debiasing algorithm is inherently greedy in that decisions for or against a particular word must always be made while only considering its already generated (i.e., left) context. A word that may seem undesirable when only considering its left context may very well be unproblematic once its entire context is taken into account. To some extent, this problem can be alleviated through beam search. Finally, it should also be noted that the decoding time of our proposed algorithm increases linearly in the number of attributes for which self-debiasing is to be performed because a separate self-debiasing input must be processed for each such attribute. This can be problematic in use cases where it is necessary to eliminate a large number of undesired attributes simultaneously.
5.3 Ethical Considerations
Not least because of the limitations discussed in §5.2, our self-debiasing algorithm in its current form is not able to reliably prevent current generations of language models from exhibiting undesired biases or showing toxic behavior—it can merely reduce the probability of this happening for the selected models and on the selected datasets. It should therefore by no means be used as the sole measure to reduce bias or eliminate undesired behavior in real-world applications.
It would be well beyond the scope of this paper to attempt to make decisions on which behaviors and social biases should be avoided by language models. However, we consider it an advantage of our approach that the responsibility for a model’s behavior no longer lies exclusively with its initial developer: Self-debiasing provides an interface to users of a language model that allows them to explicitly set the desired behavior for concrete use cases. For example, there may well be text genres that contain violent language for legitimate purposes (e.g., crime fiction) and in that case, our method allows the user to specify a policy that does not affect violent language, but reduces other undesired attributes. The ability of specifying a policy will be especially beneficial for critical community intermediaries since this feature allows them to explicitly set the undesired attributes.
In this paper, we have shown that large language models are capable of performing self-diagnosis, that is, of investigating their own outputs with regards to the presence of undesirable attributes using only their internal knowledge and textual descriptions. Based on this finding, we have proposed a decoding algorithm that reduces the probability of a model generating biased text by comparing the original probability of a token with its probability if undesired behavior is explicitly encouraged.
As our evaluation is limited to two English datasets covering only a small portion of potentially undesired behaviors in an imperfect fashion, it is important to extend our analysis to other kinds of behaviors and biases, languages, benchmarks, and models.
It is clear that self-diagnosis and self-debiasing only reduce and do not eliminate corpus-based bias. For this reason, they are not a viable path towards bias-free models if used in isolation. However, we hope that future work can leverage our proposals, for example, by combining them with complementary models or by extending them to build stronger debiasing solutions.

Our implementation is publicly available at https://github.com/timoschick/self-debiasing.
2
For example, the list of banned words used by Raffel et al. (2020) contains phrases like “tied up” and “make me some” and terms such as “sex”, “nudity”, and “erotic”.
3
We also use the term self-diagnosis when one model analyzes the output of another (e.g., T5-XL analyzing outputs generated by GPT2-large), so that we can compare the self-diagnosis abilities of different models on the same texts.
6
We use T5 v1.1 because for prior versions, all publicly available checkpoints correspond to models that are already finetuned on numerous downstream tasks.
7
An implicit assumption of this evaluation is that the Wikitext-2 dataset does not itself contain biased text as in this case, lower perplexity would not necessarily be desirable.
8
Our results for RoBERTa-large slightly differ from those reported in Nangia et al. (2020) as they use an older version of the Transformers library (Wolf et al., 2020) in which each input is prepended with a single space before tokenization.

# How do you find the critical numbers for f(x)= x^(-8) ln x to determine the maximum and minimum?
A critical number for $f$ is a number $c$ in he domain of $f$ where $f ' \left(c\right) = 0$ or $f ' \left(c\right)$ does not exist.
$f \left(x\right) = {x}^{-} 8 = \frac{1}{x} ^ 8$ has domain: all reals except $0$.
$f ' \left(x\right) = - 8 {x}^{-} 7$ is never $0$ and fails to exist only at $0$, which is not in the domain of $f$. So, $f$ has no critical numbers.

## The Annals of Statistics
### A new permutation test statistic for complete block designs
#### Abstract
We introduce a nonparametric test statistic for the permutation test in complete block designs. We find the region in which the statistic exists and consider particularly its properties on the boundary of the region. Further, we prove that saddlepoint approximations for tail probabilities can be obtained inside the interior of this region. Finally, numerical examples are given showing that both accuracy and power of the new statistic improves on these properties of the classical $F$-statistic under some non-Gaussian models and equals them for the Gaussian case.

Abstract Top
Rotational line strengths, computed from eigenvectors of Hund’s case (a) matrix representations of the upper and lower Hamiltonians using Wigner-Witmer basis functions, show a larger than expected influence from the well-known perturbation in the (5,4) band. Comparisons with National Solar Observatory experimental Fourier transform spectroscopy data reveal nice agreement of measured and predicted spectra.
Keywords: Diatomic Spectroscopy; Rotational line strengths; Hönl-London factors; Cyanide spectra violet band perturbations;
Introduction
The CN violet $B{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}-X{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ band system is one of the most studied band systems. Ram, et al. [1] and Brooke, et al. [2] reported experimental results and theoretical information, respectively. Of the many known bands in the violet system, only the (5,4) band is considered here. This band exhibits a weak, quantitatively understood perturbation [4] caused by mixing of the $v=17$ level of $A{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ with the $v=5$ level of $B{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ . The particular perturbation of the CN (5,4) band is evaluated in this work by isolating the spectral features of this band that is part of the CN violet system.
Methods
Numerical diagonalizations of upper and lower Hamiltonians with and without the perturbation are investigated and compared with available experimental spectra. The simulations rely on determining rotational strengths without parity-partitioned Hamiltonians. It is anticipated that the investigated (5,4) band modifications can be possibly confirmed with the new PGOPHER program recently released by Western [3].
For the computation of rotational spectra, the square of transition moments are numerically computed using the eigenvectors of upper and lower Hamiltonians. This approach can also be selected in the new PGOPHER program [3]. For the diatomic molecule, the results effectively yield the Hönl-London factors yet we do not utilize tabulated Hönl-London factors that are available in standard textbooks.

Spin-orbit mixing of $B{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ and $A{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ shifts the upper $e$ parity levels, and significantly reduces the differences, $\Delta {\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}^{}$ , between measured and computed line positions.

Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2 show the results obtained with and without taking into account the mixing. In Table 1, lines of the CN (5,4) band are listed that are spectrally close to the perturbation. Comparsions of line positions, $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$, and the rotational line strengths, $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ with the corresponding unperturbed values, ${S}^{\left(0\right)}\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$, are presented. The differences, $\Delta {\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}^{\left(0\right)}$, for which the off-diagonal spin-orbit coupling constants < AL +> and < BL+> are set equal to 0, are significantly larger than the usual differences, $\Delta {\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}^{}$, of computed and experimentally determined line positions. The spin-orbit mixing of $B{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ and $A{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ shifts the upper parity levels. Table 3 also shows that a relatively large fractional error, e.g., -3.974/17.455 versus -1.870/28032 for ${R}_{11}\left(J=12.5\right)$ can occur in the computed rotational line strengths, $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ Figure 1 displays the computed spectra of only the branch in the range of 27980 to 28070 cm-1, including the lines listed in Table 1 with and without spin-orbit mixing. The $v=17,A\text{ }{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ energy eigenvalues lie very near the $v=5,B{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ eigenvalues, and this causes a significant effect from the $A{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ level. Figure 2 illustrates computed spectra for P and R branches in the range of 27905 to 28070 cm-1 for pure and perturbed upper states. The perturbed states are affected by the addition of a small amount of ${}^{2}\Pi$ states to the upper level basis. Clearly, the perturbations reveal noticeable differences in the appearance of the violet (5,4) band even at low, 2.0 cm-1, resolution. Results of modeling the angular momentum states of the upper $v=5$ vibrational level as a mixture of ${}^{2}\Sigma$ and ${}^{2}\Pi$ Hund’s case (a) basis functions, a so-called “de-perturbation” or perturbation analysis, agree well that of Ito, et al. [4] who used the line position measurements of Engleman [5]. The 100 lines of the more recent data of Ram, et al. [1] were fitted with a standard deviation of cm . The standard deviation would be increased from 0.025 to 0.25 cm-1 without the inclusion of spin-orbit mixing of the $B{\text{ }}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ and $A{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ basis states.
Changes in the spectra are relatively larger for the rotational line strengths, $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$, for the line positions, $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$. The simulation results compare nicely with measured spectra [1] available from the National Solar Observatory (NSO) at Kitt Peak [6]. Figure 3 displays the recorded and simulated spectra for a resolution of 0.03 cm-1 . The Fourier transform spectrum 920212R0.005 [6] was recorded [1] at a temperature of 20.5 degree Celsius, or at 293.65 Kelvin, and at a spectral resolution of 0.03 cm-1. The corresponding R branch spectrum is computed for a temperature of 300 K and it compares nicely with the recorded data. The predicted line positions of the R branch match the vacuum wavenumbers of the experimental spectrum.

The influence of ${}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}+{\text{ }}^{2}\Pi$ mixing on the rotational line strengths, $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$, can be recognized because computation of $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ is an integral part of the unique line position fitting algorithm. Upper and lower Hamiltonian matrices in the Hund’s case (a) basis are numerically diagonalized, and the spectral line vacuum wavenumber $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$ is the difference between upper and lower Hamiltonian eigenvalues. To determine which of the many eigenvalue differences represent allowed spectral lines, the factor $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ is computed from the upper and lower eigenvectors for each eigenvalue difference. A non-vanishing $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ denotes an allowed diatomic spectral line. Parity partitioned effective Hamiltonians are not used. Parity and branch designation are not required in the fitting algorithm. Input data to the fitting program is a table of vacuum wavenumber $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$ versus ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$. The non-vanishing of the rotational strength is the only selection rule used. Applications of this rule leads to the establishment of spectral data bases for diatomic molecular spectroscopy of selected transitions [7]. Over and above the PGOPHER program [3], there are other extensive efforts in predicting diatomic molecular spectra including for instance the so-called Duo program [8] for diatomic spectroscopy.
Wigner-Witmer diatomic eigenfunction
The Hund’s case (a) basis functions were derived from the Wigner and Witmer [9] diatomic eigenfunction,
The coordinates are: The distance $\rho$ of one electron (the electron arbitrarily labeled 1 but it could be any one of the electrons) from the internuclear vector $r\left(r,\theta ,\phi \right)$ the distance $\zeta$ of that electron above or below the plane perpendicular to r, and passing through the center of mass of the two nuclei (the coordinate origin), the angle $\chi$ for rotation of that electron about the internuclear vector r, and the remaining electronic coordinates ${r}_{2},\dots ,{r}_{N}$ in the fixed and $r{\text{'}}_{2},\dots ,r{\text{'}}_{N}$ in the rotating coordinate system.
The vibrational quantum number $v$ has been extracted from the quantum numbers collection $n$ that represents all required quantum numbers except and $v$. The Wigner-Witmer diatomic eigenfunction has no application in polyatomic theory, but for the diatomic molecule the exact separation of the Euler angles is a clear advantage over the Born- Oppenheimer approximation for the diatomic molecule in which the angle of electronic rotation, $\theta$ and $\phi$. Equation (1) can be derived by writing the general equation for coordinate (passive) rotations of the eigenfunction, replacing two generic coordinate vectors with the diatomic vectors $r\left(r,\theta ,\phi \right)$ and $r\text{'}\left(\rho ,\zeta ,\chi \right)$ and equating the angles of coordinate rotation to the angles of physical rotation The general equation for coordinate rotation holds in isotropic space, and therefore the quantum numbers in the Wigner-Witmer eigenfunction include all electronic and nuclear spins. If nuclear spin were to be included, would be replaced by and ${\Omega }_{F}$, but hyperfine structure is not resolved in the (5,4) band data reported by [1], and Eq. (1) is written with the appropriate spectroscopic quantum numbers.
It is worth noting that the rotation matrix element ${D}_{M\Omega }^{J}\left(\phi ,\theta ,\chi \right)$ and its complex conjugate ${D}_{M\Omega }^{{J}^{*}}\left(\phi ,\theta ,\chi \right)$ do not fully possess the mathematical properties of quantum mechanical angular momentum. It is well known that a sum of Wigner D-functions is required to build an angular momentum state. The equation.
is not a phase convention [10-12] but a mathematical result readily obtained from Eq. (1) and
in which the prime on the operator ${{J}^{\prime }}_{±}$ indicates that it is written in the rotated coordinate system where the appropriate magnetic quantum number $\Omega$
Hund’s basis function
The Hund’s case (a) basis function based upon the Wigner-Witmer diatomic eigenfunction is
As noted above, a sum of basis functions is required to build an eigenstate of angular momentum. The basis function would also not be an eigenstate of the parity operator. The case (a) matrix elements, ${p}_{ij}^{\left(a\right)}$, of the parity operator P,
show that a single $|a〉$ basis function is not an eigenstate of parity. The procedure called parity symmetrization adds $|JM\Omega 〉$ and $|JM,-\Omega 〉$ basis functions thereby destroying the second magnetic quantum number $\Omega$ and yielding a function which at least possesses the minimal mathematical properties of an eigenstate of angular momentum, parity, and the other members of the complete set of commuting operators. The general procedure would be to continue adding basis functions to the upper and lower bases until eigenvalue differences between the upper and lower Hamiltonians accurately predict measured line positions.
The upper Hamiltonian matrix for the (5,4) band
Electronic spin S interactions with electronic orbital momentum L and nuclear orbital momentum R produce both diagonal and off-diagonal matrix elements in the Hund’s case (a) representation of the Hamiltonian. The off-diagonal elements connect different basis states. For example, both of the mentioned spin orbit interactions connect ${}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ and ${}^{2}\Pi$. Because van Vleck transformed Hamiltonians are not used, the appropriate parameters for the strength of these interactions are < AL+> and < BL+>.
The presented work relies on Hamiltonians that are not parity-partitioned. Table 2 lists the molecular parameters. The values for the A2Π state were determined utilizing the Nelder- Mead minimization algorithm using values given by Brooke, et al. [2] as trial values. Error estimates were not computed, and the values of Brooke, et al. [2] were only very slightly changed.
In Table 2, parameters not followed by a number in parenthesis were held fixed or an error estimate was not computed. The value in parenthesis is the standard deviation of the fitted value.

In Table 3, the Hamiltonian was computed for $〈AL+〉=〈BL+〉=0$ in other words the off-diagonal spin-orbit coupling has been removed. Consequently, the 2×2 matrices along the main diagonal are independent, and could be individually diagonalized. Using matrices like these to model upper states of the CN violet (5,4) band, the 100 experimental spectral lines reported by Ram et al. [1] were fitted with standard deviation of 0.25 cm-1. Standard Hund’s case (a) matrix elements [10, 12] were used. In Table 4, off-diagonal spin-orbit coupling mixes the Hund’s case (a) basis states, and the standard deviation of the spectral line fit mentioned in Table 3 is reduced by a factor of 10 to 0.025 cm-1. The spin-orbit coupling constants $〈AL+〉=4.25\left(0.03\right)$ and $〈BL+〉=0.205\left(0.001\right)$ listed in Table 2 were used to determine the Hamiltonian in Table 4. This single 6×6 matrix describing ${}^{2}\Pi {-}^{2}{\Sigma }^{+}$ mixing can be compared with the two 3×3 parity partitioned matrices of Brown and Carrington [13].
A diatomic line position fitting algorithm
A basic tool for the diatomic spectroscopist is a computer program that accepts a table of experimentally measured vacuum wave numbers ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$ versus ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$, and outputs a set of molecular parameters with which one can reproduce the ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$ with a standard deviation comparable to the estimated experimental error. In practice, an experimental line list frequently shows gaps, viz. spectral lines are missing. Following a successful fitting process, one can use the molecular parameters to predict all lines. A computed line list is especially useful when it includes the Condon and Shortley [14] line strength from which the Einstein coefficients and oscillator strength [15, 16] and the HITRAN line strength [17] can be calculated. A feature of the line fitting program described below is its use of non-zero rotational strengths (see Eq. (9) below) to mark which of the many computed differences between upper and lower term values represents the vacuum wavenumber of an allowed spectral line. Consequently, the fitting process creates a complete line list including rotational factors. Parity plays no part in the fitting process, but the same orthogonal matrix that diagonalizes the case (a) Hamiltonian matrix will also diagonalize the case (a) parity matrix whose elements are given in Equation (5). The $p=±1$ parity eigenvalue becomes a computed quantity, and the e/f parity designation is established from the parity eigenvalue using the accepted convention Brown et al. [18].
Trial values of upper and lower state molecular parameters, typically taken from previous works [2] for the band system in question, are used to compute upper H’ and lower H Hamiltonian matrices in the case (a) basis given by Eq. (4) for specific values of ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$ The upper and lower Hamiltonians are numerically diagonalized,
giving the upper ${T}^{\prime }$ and $T$ term values. The vacuum wavenumber $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$ is determined, and the rotational strength is evaluated, The degree of the tensor operator $q$, responsible for the transitions amounts to $q=1$ for electric dipole transitions. For a non-zero rotational factors, $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$, the vacuum wavenumber is added to a table of computed line positions to be compared with the experimental list ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$ versus ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$. The Clebsch-Gordan coefficient, $〈J\Omega ;q,{\Omega }^{\prime }-\Omega \text{ }|{J}^{\prime }{\Omega }^{\prime }〉$, is the same one appearing in the pure case (a) - case (a) formulae for $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$. For a specific values of ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$ one constructs tables for ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$ and computed ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{ij}$. The differences $\Delta {\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{ij}$ are computed where each ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{ij}$ is the one that most closely equals one of the ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$. Once values of ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{ij}$ and ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$ are matched, each is marked unavailable until a new list of ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{ij}$ is computed. The indicated computations are performed for all values of ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$ in the experimental line list, and corrections to the trial values of the molecular parameters are subsequently determined from the resulting $\Delta {\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{ij}$. The entire process is iterated until the parameter corrections become negligibly small. As this fitting process successfully concludes, one obtains a set of molecular parameters that predict measured line positions, ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$, with a standard deviations that equal the experimental estimates within the accuracy of the ${\stackrel{˜}{\nu }}_{\text{e}xp}$.
Discussion
The influence on intensities in the (5,4) band of the CN violet system caused by the weak spin-orbit mixing, Figures 1 and 2 is significantly larger than initially anticipated. This can be noticed because computation of the rotational strengths is an integral part of our line position fitting program. The eigenvectors that diagonalize the Hamiltonian to yield fitted line position $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$ also yield $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$. In established diatomic molecular practice, Hönl-London factors are determined independently of line positions. Analytical approximations utilize the parameter $Y=A/B$ to account for the influence of spin-orbit interaction on $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$. Kovács [19] gives many examples, Li, et al. [20] give a more recent application. These analytical approximations can accurately account for intermediate spin-orbit coupling which smooth transitions between case (a) and case (b) with increasing ${J}^{\prime }$ and $J$, but show limited sensitivity to abrupt changes in $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ near perturbations such as those seen the CN (5,4) band.
Conclusions
The Wigner-Witmer diatomic eigenfunction makes it possible to form an exact, mathematical connection between computation of $\stackrel{˜}{\nu }$ and $S\left({J}^{\prime },J\right)$ in a single algorithm. The concept of the non-vanishing rotational strengths as the omnipotent selection rule initially conceived as a simplifying convenience in a computer algorithm is now seen to be more valuable, as evidenced in this work’s analysis of the CN (5,4) band perturbations by isolating a specific branch. Future work is planned for comparisons of the CN (10,10) band spectra that include perturbation and that show promising agreements with experiments and PGOPHER predictions.

Generator is a new concept introduced to JavaScript in ECMAScript 2015 (or ES6). Generators are the new powerful tools which should be in each JavaScript developer’s toolkit. Generators are mostly used in JavaScript frameworks and libraries. For example, Koa uses generators as middleware. Babel can use generators to transpile async/await functions. But generators are not commonly used in application code yet. The main reason is that generators are not easy to understand and adopt in day-to-day development.
This book focuses on real day-to-day development scenarios which can benefit from using generators.
Most the code examples in this book are tested on Chrome browser and some of them are tested on NodeJS 6.7.0. These examples should also work on other browsers which support generators. Refer to this page for browser compatibility of generators.
# I Generators basics
Before discussing actual usage of generators, we start from the basic concept of generators.
There are two different concepts related to generators.
• Generator function - A special kind of function which generates generator objects.
• Generator object - An instance of generator function.
Execution of generator objects can be suspended and resumed. In JavaScript, we have only limited control over execution of normal functions. Given a function, when it starts execution, by using (), apply or call, it will run to the end of the execution.
For a simple function sum shown below, when it’s invoked using sum(1, 2), it starts execution and returns value 3 to the caller.
As JavaScript engine execution is single-threaded (not considering web worker here), during the execution of a function, there is no way to stop the execution. So if you accidentally create an infinite loop in your function, the whole application will be blocked.
## 1. Basic generators
Let’s start with a simple generator function. The difference between a generator function and a normal function declaration is the * between function and the function name.
Generator objects can return multiple values when next() method is invoked. Those values are specified using yield keyword. In the generator function above, three yield expressions can generate three values 1, 2 and 3 when next() method of a generator object is invoked.
In the code above, invoking the generator function sample generates a new generator object func. Execution of generator object func is initially suspended. When next method is invoked on the func object, it starts execution and runs to the first yield expression and returns the value 1 to the caller. The return value is an object with two properties: value and done. value contains the return value of yield expression, done can be used to check if there are more values to get. done property is false for the first three invocations of next method. For the fourth invocation, done property is set to true, which means there are no values anymore.
### 1.1 Suspend & resume execution
The power of generators comes from the ability to suspend and resume execution of generator objects. Each generator object can be viewed as a state machine. Each instance of the same generator function maintains its own state. Invoking next() on the generator object triggers state transition inside the object, which causes the object runs to the next yield expression. This continues until no more yield expressions found.
In the code below, two generator objects func1 and func2 maintain their own internal states. Invoking next() on one object doesn’t affect the state of the other object.
### 1.2 Check types of generator functions and generator objects
We can use Object.prototype.toString to check the types of generator functions and generator objects.
## 2. Pass values to next()
Let’s start from another simple generator function doMath. If we just look at the code, we may think that after invoking next() on the generator object, the value of x should be 1, the value of y should be 11 and the value of z should be 110. It’s just simple math, right???
But the actual result doesn’t match what we would expect. As shown in the code below, the values are 1, NaN and NaN.
The key to understanding the actual result is that value passed to next() invocation is the actually used value of last yield expression. Since we didn’t pass any argument when invoking next(), so the value of each yield expression is actually undefined.
For the first next() invocation, there is no last yield expression, so the value is actually ignored. For the second next() invocation, value of last yield expression, i.e. yield 1 is set to undefined, which sets x to undefined, then sets the result of yield x + 10 to NaN. For the third next() invocation, value of last yield expression, i.e. yield x + 10 is set to undefined, which sets y to undefined, then sets the result of yield y * 10 to NaN.
Now we can try to pass a value when invoking next() method on a generator object. In the code below, the second next() invocation func.next(1) passes 1 to the generator object, so value 1 is set as the value of yield 1, which sets x to 1, then the result of this next() will be 11. For the third next() invocation func.next(2), 2 is passed as the value of yield x + 10, which sets y to 2, then the result of this next() will be 20.
## 3. return in generators
In the generator function, we can also use return statement. The returned value is also passed to the caller of a generator object’s next() method. return also finishes execution of generator object, i.e. done property is set to true. In the code below, the return value of second next(1) invocation is the value of return statement, i.e. x + 2.
### 3.1 Infinite values
It’s possible for a generator object to generate an infinite number of values, i.e. done property is always false. For example, we can create a generator which generates infinite integer numbers starting from 0. In this case, we can use return to finish generator objects.
In the code below, loop keeps generating incremental values in a while loop. When a truthy value is passed to next() as the value of shouldExit, the last value is returned and generator object is finished.
As shown in the code below, three values are generated using next(). The forth next(true) invocation finishes the generator object func.
## 4. Iterators & generators
From all the generators code above, you may wonder why we should use next() to get values from the generator objects and deal with the nonintuitive return value format {value: 1, done: false}. Meet iterators.
### 4.1 Iterators
Iterators are no strangers to developers. They already exist in different programming languages with similar names, e.g. Java Iterator, Ruby Enumerator and Python Iterator Types. Iterators can be used to iterate over items in a collection. Iterators maintain their own states regarding the current position in the target collection.
An iterator in ES6 is just an object which provides a next() method to get next item in the current iteration. next() method should return an object with two properties: value and done. So generator functions are actually factories of iterators.
### 4.2 Iterables
Iterables are objects which have property @@iterator. The value of @@iterator property is a function that returns an Iterator object.
A generator object conforms to both the Iterator and Iterable interfaces.
### 4.3 Iterate generator objects
As generators are iterable, we can use other ES6 language features to interact with generator objects easily. Following examples use values generator function shown below.
#### for-of loops
We can use for-of loops to easily iterate all the values in a generator object.
Generator objects can also be used with spread operator.
#### Work with new collection types
Generator objects can be used to create new collection objects, e.g. Set, WeakSet, Map and WeakMap.
After introducing basic concepts of generators, we are now looking into more advanced features of generators.
The code in this chapter uses following debug function to log values to the console.
## 5. Arguments of generator functions
Like other normal functions, generator functions can take arguments. These arguments can be used in yield expressions inside the generator functions.
In the code below, seq is a generator function with arguments start and number. start means the start number of generated values and number means the total number of generated values.
## 6. return method
A generator object has a return method to return given value and finish the generator. This behavior is similar with using return statement inside of a generator.
Given the same values generator function shown below,
We can see how invoking return method finishes the generator object. The first next() invocation returns the first value 'a', then func.return('d') returns value 'd' and finishes the generator, i.e. done property is set to true.
return method can be invoked multiple times. Each invocation returns the value passed to return() method.
## 7. throw method
A generator object also has a throw method to pass a value to it and trigger an exception to throw inside of the generator object. Both throw and next methods can send values to generator objects and change their behaviors. A value passed using next is treated as the result of last yield expression, but a value passed using throw is treated as replacing last yield expression with a throw statement.
In the code below, when passing hello to the generator object using throw('hello'), an uncaught error is thrown and the generator object is finished. When func.throw('hello') is invoked, the last yield expression yield x + 1 is replaced with throw 'hello'. Since the thrown object is not caught, it’s propagated to the JavaScript engine.
Although it’s possible to pass any types of values to throw(), it’s recommended to pass Error objects for better debugging, e.g. throw(new Error('boom!')).
We can use try-catch in the generator function to handle errors. In the code below, when func.throw(new Error('boom!')) is invoked, last yield expression yield 2 is replaced with throw new Error('boom!'). The thrown object is caught by try-catch. So the execution continues until the next yield expression yield 3.
If the value passed by throw() is caught and handled by the generator object, it can continue to generate all remaining values. Otherwise, it will finish with a uncaught error.
## 8. yield*
So far aforementioned generator objects only generate a single value using yield expression one at a time. We can also use a yield* expression to generate a sequence of values. When a yield* expression is encountered, sequence generation of current generator object is delegated to another generator object or iterable object.
### 8.1 yield* & iterable objects
In the code below, generator function oneToThree uses yield* [1, 2, 3] to generate three values: 1, 2 and 3, which has the same result as generator function sample in basic generators. Using yield* expression is more concise and easier to read.
We can use multiple yield* expressions in a generator function, then values from each yield* expression are generated in order.
### 8.2 yield* & generator objects
We can also use other generator objects in yield* expressions.
### 8.3 Value of yield*
yield* is also an expression, so it’s evaluated to a value. The value of yield* expression depends on its target, i.e. the expression after yield*. The value is the last value generated by the iterable object or generator object, i.e. the value property with done set to true.
If yield* is used with iterable objects, then the evaluated value is always undefined, because the last generated value is always {value: undefined, done: true}.
If yield* is used with generator objects, we can control the last generated value using return inside of the generator functions.
## 9. Nested yield and yield*
We can nest yield and yield* to create complex values generation.
### 9.1 Nested yield
In the code below, the inner yield expression generates value 1 first, then the middle yield expression generates value of yield 1 - undefined, then the outer yield expression generates value of yield yield 1 - undefined.
### 9.2 Nested yield and yield*
In the code below, generator oneToThree first generates three values 1, 2 and 3, then its value undefined is generated by yield expression.
## 10. co
Generator functions can also be used to control code execution flow. By using yield expressions, we can control when the execution of a generator object should be suspended. When the execution of a generator object is suspended, other code can have the chance to run and choose the best time to resume the execution. yield* expressions allow the delegation to other generator objects or iterable objects, which can create complicated nested or recursive execution flows.
Generator functions are most useful when combining with Promises. As described in MDN,
The Promise object is used for asynchronous computations. A Promise represents a value which may be available now, or in the future, or never.
If the value of a yield expression is a Promise object, then we can suspend the execution of the generator object when waiting for the Promise to be resolved. When the Promise is fulfilled, we can resume the execution of the generator object with the fulfilled value as the value of the yield expression. Otherwise, we can finish the generator with the rejected error.
To support this kind of scenarios, we need to use the library co. In the code below, timeoutToPromise is a helper method that creates a Promise object using setTimeout. Generator function calculate uses yield expression and the Promise object created by timeoutToPromise. co(calculate, 1, 2) turns the generator function calculate into a Promise object.
Below is an example of using co with generator functions which have yield expressions with other generator objects. value is a generator function which takes the argument v as the seed of generating two random values v1 and v2. yield value(1) in calculate uses a generator object value(1) as the target of yield expression.
## 11. regenerator
If generator functions are not supported on the target platform, we can use regenerator to transpile generator functions into ES5. Babel also has a transform-regenerator plugin to perform the transformation. If you use Babel preset ES2015, then this plugin is already included.
This plugin can transform code using generators
into code using regenerator.
You can try it online.
# III Real-world usages
We are going to see how generators in real-world projects.
## 12. Koa
Koa is next generation web framework for NodeJS. Its powerful middleware architecture is built on top of generators. We are going to see how Koa uses generators.
### 12.1 Koa basics
Koa is very easy to configure and use. Each application creates different middleware to handle requests and generate responses. Each middleware is a generator function and registered using use() of Koa application. Middleware are processed in a chain with the same order as they are registered. Each middleware can access context information using this, e.g. request, response, method and url.
The code below is a simple Koa application. It registers two middleware generator functions, the first one is used to log request processing time and the second one is used to set the response body to Hello World.
Each middleware generator function can take an extra argument which represents the next middleware in the chain. If a middleware generator function needs to intercept execution of downstream middleware in the chain, it can perform certain tasks first, then call yield to delegate to other middleware, then perform other tasks after downstream middleware finish. The logging middleware generator function in the code above demonstrates this pattern. It records start time when a request comes in, then it calls yield next for delegation, finally it records the finish time and calculates the duration.
After accessing the http://localhost:3000, the console log looks like below:
### 12.2 koa-compose
koa-compose is the small library which does the composition of middleware generator functions. Its source code is very simple, only 29 sloc. compose is the main method to compose middleware. The argument middleware is an array of middleware generator functions in the order of registration. The return value of compose method is a generator function with argument next. next is an optional generator function which is the last middleware in the chain.
Let’s go through the generator function code line by line. The first line if (!next) next = noop(); sets next to a do-nothing generator function noop if it’s null. i is the loop variable for array middleware starting from the last middleware in the array. In the while loop, the generator function of each middleware is invoked with the current value of next as the argument, the returned generator object is set as the new value of next. Then yield* is used to delegate to final next generator object.
We’ll see how middleware are used in the sample application of Koa basics. The middleware array contains two generator functions, log and setBody. In the while loop, generator function setBody is invoked first with the argument next set to noop and next is set to the generator object of setBody. Then generator function log is invoked with the argument next set to the generator object of setBody and next is set to the generator object of log. The last yield* next expression delegates to the generator object of log.
The returned generator function of compose is turned into a regular function that returns a Promise using co.wrap from co. The wrapped function is the actual request handler. When a request comes in, the generator object of log starts execution first and runs until the yield next, so the start time is recorded. next is a generator object of setBody, invoking yield next triggers the execution of setBody and set the response body. Finally, the generator object of log resumes execution and calculate the duration.
## 13. Babel
Babel is a JavaScript compiler which allows developers to use future JavaScript features. Babel has different plugins to transform JavaScript code written with the latest standards into a version which is supported on today’s platforms.
### 13.1 Transform async/await
Babel has a async to generator plugin which transforms async functions into generator functions. We’ll use a simple NodeJS application to demonstrate the usage of this Babel plugin.
The code below shows the .babelrc file.
Given JavaScript code shown below,
After applying the plugin, the output is shown as below.
You can also view the transformed result online.
The transformation is straightforward and relies on a helper method _asyncToGenerator. async function is transformed into generator function and await is transformed into yield. The _asyncToGenerator helper is responsible for transforming generator functions into a regular function that returns a Promise.
From the source code of asyncToGenerator, we can see that it transforms a generator function into a Promise chain.
# IV Usage scenarios
In this chapter, we are going to see some common usage scenarios for generators.
## 14. Sequence generation
Generator functions are very useful when generating complex sequences. We can encapsulate the generation logic in the function and shield the consumer from internal details.
In the code below, generator function numbers has a complicated logic about generating values in the sequence.
For more complicated scenarios, we can also use yield* to combine sequences. Suppose we have a system which stores users information in both file system and database, we can use following code to return a sequence of all users.
We use the following code in file createTask.js to create tasks using setTimeout and Promise. The task fails when value is greater than or equals to 5.
We can also implement it using generator functions and co.

# When was it first noticed, or demonstrated, that radioactive material became warm?
Perusing the Radioactive Thermoelectric Generator or rtg tag in Space SE will show how important these items are for Space exploration both as a source of heat to keep spacecraft instrumentation warm, and to power the thermoelectric generators for electricity. The Curiosity rover on Mars uses it's RTG for both and includes a fluid circulation system to heat (or cool) various sections.
RTG's most often use an alpha decay source like Plutonium-238 or perhaps in the future Americium-241) rather than a fission source, to minimize longer range radiation that can damage the spacecraft.
Question: I'm not sure if the self-heating of a radioactive sample was first noticed then explained, or predicted and then demonstrated. But in either case, when was a measured or even noticed temperature rise first documented or reported?
• THere's a fine line between "gives off energy in the form of photons and particles" and "gets warm" , as both of those indicate energy release. – Carl Witthoft Jun 25 '18 at 12:03
• @CarlWitthoft Luckily language provides us with good clear words to make various distinctions clear. I think "warm" and "temperature" will do the trick in this case. – uhoh Jun 25 '18 at 14:34

There is a difference between
$P^4(1-P)^0$
and
$P^4\left(1-P^0\right)$

# Confidence interval for the 95th percentile of the normal distribution
Let $$X_1, .., X_n \sim Normal(\mu, \sigma^2)$$.
Let $$\tau$$ be the 95th percentile of this distribution. Thus,
$$P(X_i < \tau) = 0.95$$.
What is the $$1 - \alpha$$ confidence interval for $$\tau$$?
I know how to get the maximum likelihood estimator for $$\tau$$; I would invoke the equivariance principle and plug in the MLEs for $$\mu$$ and $$\sigma$$.
$$\hat{\tau} = \bar{X} + S \Phi^{-1}(0.95)$$.
However, I'm struggling to estimate the standard error for it. It likely involves Fisher's information matrix, but I'm stuck at this point.
For normal distribution, $$\bar X$$ and $$S$$ are independent. So $$\mathrm{Var}(\hat \tau) = \mathrm{Var}(\bar X) +\mathrm{Var}(S \Phi^{-1}(0.95)) = \frac {\sigma^2}n + (\Phi^{-1}(0.95))^2 \mathrm{Var}(S)$$
$$\sqrt {n-1} S/\sigma$$ follows chi distribution with $$n-1$$ degree of freedom. Its variance is $$\frac {2[\Gamma(\frac {n-1}2)[\Gamma(1+ \frac {n-1}2)-[\Gamma(\frac {n}2)]}{\Gamma(\frac {n-1}2) } = V$$. So the variance of $$S$$ is $$\frac {\sigma^2}{n-1}V$$.
So $$\mathrm{Var}(\hat \tau) = \frac {\sigma^2}n + (\Phi^{-1}(0.95))^2\frac {\sigma^2}{n-1}V$$

# Definition of Googol
A googol is a very large number, written as a $1$ followed by $100$ zeroes:
$10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,$
$000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,$
$000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000$
It's much quicker to write this in Scientific Notation as $1 \times 10^{100}$!

<dct:description><p><em><strong>This is no longer the most up to date version of this dataset. Please use version 1.1 (https://zenodo.org/record/31026) instead.</strong></em></p> <p>This dataset makes accessible the uniquely comprehensive records of vagrant removal from, through, and back to Middlesex, encompassing the details of some 14,789 men and women removed (either forcibly or voluntarily) as undesirables between 1777 and 1786. In includes people ejected from London as vagrants, and those sent back to London from counties beyond. Significant background material is available on the &#39;London Lives&#39; website, which provides additional context for these records. The authors also recommend the following article:</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Tim Hitchcock, Adam Crymble, and Louise Falcini, &lsquo;Loose, Idle and Disorderly: Vagrant Removal in Late Eighteenth-Century Middlesex&rsquo;, _Social History_.</p> <p>Each record includes details on the name of the vagrant, his or her parish of legal settlement, where they were picked up by the vagrant contractor, where they were dropped off, as well as the name of the magistrate who had proclaimed them a vagrant. Each entry is georeferenced, to make it possible to follow the journeys of thousands of failed migrants and temporary Londoners back to their place of origin in the late eighteenth century.</p> <p>Each entry has 29 columns of data, all of which are described in the READ ME file.</p> <p>The original records were created by Henry Adams, the vagrant contractor of Middlesex who had - as had his father before him - conveyed vagrants from Middlesex gaols to the edge of the county where they would be sent onwards towards their parish of legal settlement. His role also involved picking up vagrants on their way back to Middlesex, expelled from elsewhere, as well as those being shepherded through to counties beyond, as part of the national network of removal. Eight times per year at each session of the Middlesex Bench, Adams submitted lists of vagrants conveyed as proof of his having transported these individuals, after which he would be paid for his services. The dataset contains all 42 surviving lists out of a possible 65.The gaps in the records are unfortunately not evenly spaced throughout the year. We know more, for example, about removal in October than in May.</p> <p>Spellings have been interpreted and standardized when possible. Georeferences have been added when they could be identified. This dataset was created for 21st century historians, and should not be construed as a true transcription of the original sources. Instead the goal was to use a limited vocabulary and to interpret the entries rather than recreate them verbatim. While this is undesirable for anyone interested in spelling variations of names and place names in the eighteenth century, it is the authors&#39; hope that these interpretations will make it easier to conduct quantitative analysis and studies in historical geography.</p></dct:description>

# Tutorial for retrieving data from the Swiss Open Data portal¶
This tutorial was originally published on DataCareer.
In this Jupyter Notebook we will retrieve data from open data portal "opendata.swiss". The portal is based on the open source project CKAN. CKAN stands for Comprehensive Knowledge Archive Network. It provides an extensive API for the metadata of the open data catalogue. This means that the information about the datasets can be retrieved from CKAN, but the data itself will have to be downloaded from the servers of the contributors ("opendata.swiss" in this cases).
In this tutorial we will take a look at the population of Swizterland using Python 3. Let's start with importing some packages we will use for this exercise.
In [1]:
import pprint
import requests # 2.18.4
import json # 2.0.9
import pandas as pd # 0.23.0
Like mentioned, the CKAN API functions as a catalog for datasets. We need to define the URL for "opendata.swiss".
In [2]:
# Package list of the Swiss open data portal
packages = 'https://opendata.swiss/api/3/action/package_list'
Let's get a list of all the datasets (called packages in CKAN) listed by "opendata.swiss".
In [3]:
# Make the HTTP request
response = requests.get(packages)
# Use the json module to load CKAN's response into a dictionary
# Check the contents of the response
assert response_dict['success'] is True # make sure if response is OK
The titles of the datasets are in the key called result. Let's create a new variable called datasets and find out how many datasets there are available.
In [4]:
datasets = response_dict['result'] # extract all the packages from the response
print(len(datasets)) # print the total number of datasets
6868
This is quite an extensive list. We can print the last 10 to the screen to get an idea of the titles:
In [5]:
datasets[-10:]
Out[5]:
['zuzuge-nach-jahr-quartier-geschlecht-altersgruppe-zivilstand-und-familienstellung-nachfuhrung-e',
'zuzuge-pers',
'zvv-fahrplan-tram-und-bus',
'zwangsnutzungen',
'zweigstellen-der-musikschule-konservatorium-zurich-mkz',
'zweite-vornamen-neugeborener-madchen-und-knaben-mit-wohnsitz-in-der-stadt-zurich-seit-1993']
For this exercise we will take one from this list, called "bruttoinlandprodukt". Other examples could be: 'bevolkerung', 'elektroautos', or 'bevolkerungsdaten-im-zeitvergleich'.
In [6]:
# Specify the package you are interested in:
package = 'bruttoinlandprodukt'
Now let's download the package/dataset information. We need to take a few steps:
In [7]:
# Base url for package information. This is always the same.
base_url = 'https://opendata.swiss/api/3/action/package_show?id='
# Construct the url for the package of interest
package_information_url = base_url + package
# Make the HTTP request
package_information = requests.get(package_information_url)
# Use the json module to load CKAN's response into a dictionary
# Check the contents of the response.
assert package_dict['success'] is True # again make sure if response is OK
package_dict = package_dict['result'] # we only need the 'result' part from the dictionary
# pprint.pprint(package_dict) # pretty print the package information to screen
Did you walk through the information above? You can uncomment the last line (with pretty print) to check out the package information. Is this indeed the dataset you are interested in? If yes, then you need to download the dataset. It is also important to know the format of the dataset, for next steps. This information is also listed in the package information above.
In [8]:
# Get the url for the data from the dictionary
data_url = package_dict['resources'][0]['url']
print('Data url: ' + data_url)
# Print the data format
data_format = package_dict['resources'][0]['format']
print('Data format: ' + data_format)
Data url: https://github.com/StataBS/indikatoren/tree/master/data/4323.tsv
Data format: TSV
Notice that this particular dataset is hosted at GitHub. When downloading from GitHub, it is better to request the raw data. We need to rewrite the URL a little bit to get there.
In [9]:
# If data is hosted at GitHub, always download the raw data
if data_url.startswith('https://github.com/'):
data_url = data_url.replace('https://github.com/', 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/')
data_url = data_url.replace('tree/', '')
print('Data url: ' + data_url)
Data url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StataBS/indikatoren/master/data/4323.tsv
Feel free to take a follow the URL's bove. It is good to take a sneak peak so you know what the data will look like. The dataset can come in different formats, so let's specify which ones we are willing to accept and load them into a Pandas DataFrame.
In [10]:
# List of formats we work with in this exercise
csv = ['comma-separated-values', 'CSV', 'csv']
tsv = ['tab-separated-values', 'TSV', 'tsv']
xls = ['XLS']
# Download the data to a Pandas DataFrame. Use seperate function calls, depending on the format of the dataset.
if any(s in data_format for s in csv): # pd.read_csv()
elif any(s in data_format for s in tsv): # pd.read_csv() and specify the delimiter
elif any(s in data_format for s in xls): # pd.read_excel()
else:
print('Sorry, the data format is not supported for this exercise')
# Print the first rows to the screen to inspect the dataset
Out[10]:
Jahr Bruttoinlandprodukt DateTime
0 1980 8219.2
1 1981 8754.3
2 1982 9459.6
3 1983 9879.3
4 1984 10619.4
As you can see, we need to make a few adjustments before we can continue. It is best to clean up the dataset before you start doing your analysis.
In [11]:
# Remove the column 'DateTime', because it is empty
df.drop('DateTime', axis=1, inplace=True)
# Make 'Jahr' the index
df.set_index('Jahr', inplace=True)
That's it! Now let's visualise the data with Pandas built-in plot functionality, which is based on 'matplotlib'.
In [12]:
# Use IPython's "magic" in Jupyter Notebook to directly show the plot on the screen.
%matplotlib inline
df.plot()
Out[12]:
<matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot at 0x115c8ada0>

# zbMATH — the first resource for mathematics
Simplicial systems for interval exchange maps and measured foliations. (English) Zbl 0597.58024
Summary: The spaces of interval exchange maps and measured foliations are considered and an alternative proof that almost all interval exchange maps and measured foliations are uniquely ergodic is given. These spaces are endowed with a refinement process, called a simplicial system, which is studied abstractly and is shown to be normal under a simple assumption. The results follow and thus are a corollary of a more general theorem in a broader setting.

# VHDL Procedure - Same variable for input/output parameter
I've written a component where I use the same variable for the input and output parameter of a procedure. A reduced example looks like this:
library ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
use ieee.numeric_std.all;
entity var_test is
port
(
iClk : in std_logic;
iReset_n : in std_logic
);
end entity;
architecture behaviour of var_test is
procedure incr(
iVar : in signed(15 downto 0);
oVar : out signed(15 downto 0)
) is
begin
oVar := iVar+1;
end;
begin
process
variable vVar : signed(15 downto 0) := (others => '0');
begin
wait until rising_edge(iClk);
if iReset_n = '0' then
else
incr(vVar, vVar);
end if;
end process;
end behaviour;
When observing vVar in the simulator I expect it to be a counter. This is indeed the behavior I'm seeing when setting the VHDL standard to 2002 in ModelSim 10.5b. However, when selecting VHDL 2008 the variable value is undefined (displayed as 'X') after the first rising edge after reset. Was there a change regarding this behavior between these VHDL standards? Or is this code illegal and just worked by accident?
• Hm.....interesting......I just checked in 10.4a....same problem May 2, 2019 at 12:40
• If you just need a solution that works, you could write either an inout port or a pure function returning oVar, but no idea why this doesn't work, so no answer to the question. May 3, 2019 at 8:26
• Do you have a support contract? This sounds like a very peculiar thing that should be checked with a ticket to the makers of the very expensive software. Kinda hard for community debugging, also, given the exclusivity of it. Nov 30, 2019 at 0:16
## 1 Answer
I have changed your function to give a value on reset as follows:
wait until rising_edge(iClk);
if iReset_n = '0' then
vVar := (others => '0');
else
incr(vVar, vVar);
end if;
I don't know how it works without this initialization for previous VHDL versions (it shouldn't), but it works with it under VHDL 2008

# 1.0: Prelude to The Nature of Light
Our investigation of light revolves around two questions of fundamental importance:
1. What is the nature of light, and
2. how does light behave under various circumstances?
Answers to these questions can be found in Maxwell’s equations, which predict the existence of electromagnetic waves and their behavior. Examples of light include radio and infrared waves, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, and X-rays. Interestingly, not all light phenomena can be explained by Maxwell’s theory. Experiments performed early in the twentieth century showed that light has corpuscular, or particle-like, properties. The idea that light can display both wave and particle characteristics is called wave-particle duality, which is examined in Photons and Matter Waves.
In this chapter, we study the basic properties of light. In the next few chapters, we investigate the behavior of light when it interacts with optical devices such as mirrors, lenses, and apertures.

# Prepare a cross-platform QT C-wrapper class for unit testing and mocking
## The situation
I recently started a cross platform QT project (arm, linux-x86, windows) that aims to interact with CAN-Bus hardware. I want to learn and get used to unit testing from scratch as good as possible while working on that project.
As I have a very limited experience in writing unit tests as well as writing well-designed code to test, it is challenging for me to design my code well, especially because I constantly interact with low level hardware. This requires mocking or emulating as well as unit testing.
In my main can bus class, which I do not want to talk about here (yet), I need to interface a low level C library libsocketcan. Thus I wrote a little wrapper class that works well.
Now I think, that little class would be perfect to learn good testable design.
The testing and mocking framework I use is Googletest, however I think that's not that important from a general point of view when discussing testable design.
## My goals
• I want to be able to unit test my SocketCan-class itself in an elegant way. So I hope for helpful reviews that might lead to a good re-design for the class. Probably I have to mock the class somehow to make unit tests working reasonable for it.
• When I use that SocketCan-class as a dependency in my main class which acts as a high-level abstraction layer for CAN, I also want the testability of that class not to be reduced by the usage of the SocketCan class.
• I want to unit test the whole class, even on a platform, where SocketCan is not available (Windows). How to design it properly for that goal?
## My thoughts
I am reading a lot regarding unit testing and mocking. For example, there is an article about not to mock, what you do not own. So do I have to wrap my wrapper class again to get it mockable easily?
Should I even unit test that SocketCan class at all or does it in your eyes not provide enough functionality to make tests for it?
Bonus topic: I am a bit doubtful whether my implementation of the cross platform ability is a reasonable way to go. I have that single generic header file that I use for all platforms, and two different implementation *.cpps, that are selected to compile by the build system, depending of the target platform.

• It looks like you're asking for a review of parts of the code (the unit tests) that you haven't shown us. If you want a review of the tests, you really do need to include them in the question! On the other hand, if your tests aren't yet complete and you want advice, you're too early for Code Review - we need completed, working code for review. – Toby Speight Dec 7 '18 at 15:21
• Thanks, I understand your point. However, where would be the right place to ask for such a specific advice? The above code is working, so I thought it could be reviewed as it is, with having in mind to prepare it for a later use in unit tests. I might have been wrong on this. – darkmattercoder Dec 8 '18 at 10:58
This answer doesn't particularly address your questions, but it does talk about some generic C++ stuff. To make this clearer, I'm going to divide it between 'Feedback' and 'Opinion'.
# Feedback
When passing const QString interface, pass it as a reference. Nearly all class instances should be passed as references.
#include "mycanbus_socketcan.h"
#include <QCoreApplication>
bool result;
SocketCanState state;
// Shutting down, reconfiguring, bringing up, state check
result = interfaceDown(interface);
state = getState(interface);
should simply be
bool result = interfaceDown(interface);
SocketCanState state = getState(interface);
It's not (old) C, so initialize and declare things where they're used, not at the beginning of the function.
if (state == SocketCanState::RequestFailed){
qCWarning(lcSocketCan) << QCoreApplication::translate("","Could not get the current state of interface %1, aborting.").arg(interface);
return false;
}else
{
return true;
}
The else here is not needed. Simply return true, because the previous block will have already returned false. This happens elsewhere in your code as well.
# Opinion
#ifndef MYCANBUS_SOCKETCAN_H
All modern C++ compilers support #pragma once. I prefer to use it. You can weigh the pros and cons.
In my opinion, system header includes should be done before user includes. C++ is order-sensitive when it comes to includes.
• There is significant debate here, here and even in the description here on Wikipedia about #pragma once as well as debate about include order. – brug Dec 8 '18 at 1:52
• thanks, I am not sure about #pragma once. Each argument against or towards its usage has a point. As my IDE will generate the ifdef guards from a template while class creation, I think I will stay with them for now. Regarding the include order, there are strong discussions also and my clang format standard beautifier re-arranges the includes based on the webkit guidelines. If I omit the else, clang static analysis as well as the compiler warns me about potential issues, so I included it. – darkmattercoder Dec 8 '18 at 11:00
• @bruglesco I've made that clearer in my answer, that some of these points are only opinion. – Reinderien Dec 12 '18 at 15:38
• accepted your answer for the time being. Currently refactoring with your suggestions and looking forward to post a more concise question soon. – darkmattercoder Dec 18 '18 at 14:59

#### Linear Equations of the First Kind with Constant Limits of Integration
► Notation: f = f (x), g = g(x), h = h(x), K = K (x), and M = M (x) are arbitrary functions (these may be composite functions of the argument depending on two variables x and t); A, B, C, a, b, c, k, α, β, γ, λ, and μ are free parameters; and n is a nonnegative integer.
#### 3.1 Equations Whose Kernels Contain Power-Law Functions
In Section 3.1, we mean that kernels of the integral equations discussed may contain power-law functions or modulus of power-law functions.
#### 3.1-1 Kernels Linear in the Arguments x and t.
1. $∫ 0 1 | x − t | y ( t ) d t = f ( x )$
.
1°.Let us remove the modulus in the integrand:
1 $∫ 0 x ( x − t ) y ( t ) d t + ∫ x 1 ( t − x ) y ( t ) d t = d f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x yields
2 $∫ 0 x y ( t ) d t − ∫ x 1 y ( t ) d t = f ′ x ( x ) .$
Differentiating (2) yields the solution
3 $y ( x ) = 1 2 f ″ x x ( x ) .$
2°.Let us demonstrate that the right-hand side f(x)of the integral equation must satisfy certain relations. By setting x = 0 and x =1in(1), we obtain two corollaries $∫ 0 1 t y ( t ) d t = f ( 0 )$
and $∫ 0 1 ( 1 − t ) y ( t ) d t = f ( 1 )$ , which can be rewritten in the form
4 $∫ 0 1 t y ( t ) d t = f ( 0 ) , ∫ 0 1 y ( t ) d t = f ( 0 ) + f ( 1 ) .$
Substitute y(x)of (3) into (4). Integration by parts yields $f x ′ ( 1 ) = f ( 1 ) + f ( 0 )$
and $f x ′ ( 1 ) − f x ′ ( 0 ) =$ 2f (1) + 2f (0). Hence, we obtain the desired constraints for f(x):
5 $f ′ x ( 1 ) = f ( 0 ) + f ( 1 ) , f ′ x ( 0 ) + f ′ x ( 1 ) = ( 0 ) .$
Conditions (5) make it possible to find the admissible general form of the right-hand side of the integral equation:
$f ( x ) = F ( x ) + A x + B , A = − 1 2 [ F ′ x ( 1 ) + F ′ x ( 0 ) ] , B = 1 2 [ F ′ x ( 1 ) − F ( 1 ) − F ( 0 ) ] ,$
where F(x)is anarbitrary bounded twice differentiable function with bounded first derivative.
2. $∫ a b | x − t | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , 0 ≤ a ≤ b < ∞$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.3 with g(x) = x.
Solution:
$y ( x ) = 1 2 f ″ x x ( x ) .$
The right-hand side f(x) of the integral equation must satisfy certain relations. The general form of f(x)isasfollows:
$f ( x ) = F ( x ) + A x + B , A = − 1 2 [ F ′ x ( a ) + F ′ x ( b ) ] , B = 1 2 [ a F ′ x ( a ) + b F ′ x ( b ) − F ( a ) − F ( b ) ] ,$
where F(x) is an arbitrary bounded twice differentiable function (with bounded first derivative).
3. $∫ 0 a | λ x − t | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , λ > 0$
.
Here 0 ≤ xa and 0 ≤ ta.
1°.Let us remove the modulus in the integrand:
1 $∫ 0 λ x ( λ x − t ) y ( t ) d t + ∫ λ x a ( t − λ x ) y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x,we find that
2 $λ ∫ 0 λ x y ( t ) d t − λ ∫ λ x a y ( t ) d t = f ′ x ( x ) .$
Differentiating (2) yields $2 λ 2 y ( λ x ) = f x x ″ ( x )$
. Hence, we obtain the solution
3 $y ( x ) = 1 2 λ 2 f ″ x x ( x λ ) .$
2°.Letusdemonstrate that the right-hand side f(x) of the integral equation must satisfy certain relations. By setting x =0in(1)and(2), we obtain two corollaries
4 $∫ 0 a t y ( t ) d t = f ( 0 ) , λ ∫ 0 a y ( t ) d t = − f ′ x ( 0 ) .$
Substitute y(x) from (3) into (4). Integrating by parts yields the desired constraints for f(x):
5 $( a / λ ) f ′ x ( a / λ ) = f ( 0 ) + f ( a / λ ) , f ′ x ( 0 ) + f ′ x ( a / λ ) = 0.$
Conditions (5) make it possible to establish the admissible general form of the right-hand side of the integral equation:
$f ( x ) = F ( z ) + A z + B , z = λ x ; A = − 1 2 [ F ′ z ( a ) + F ′ z ( 0 ) ] , B = 1 2 [ a F ′ z ( a ) − F ( a ) − F ( 0 ) ] ,$
where F(x) is an arbitrary bounded twice differentiable function (with bounded first derivative).
4. $∫ 0 a | x − λ t | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , λ > 0$
Here 0 ≤ xa and 0 ≤ ta.
Solution:
$y ( x ) = 1 2 λ f ″ x x ( λ x ) .$
The right-hand side f(x) of the integral equation must satisfy the relations
$a λ f ′ x ( a λ ) = f ( 0 ) + f ( a λ ) , f ′ x ( 0 ) + f ′ x ( a λ ) = 0.$
Hence, it follows the general form of the right-hand side:
$f ( x ) = F ( x ) + A x + B , A = − 1 2 [ F ′ x ( λ a ) + F ′ x ( 0 ) ] , B = 1 2 [ a λ F ′ x ( a λ ) − F ( λ a ) − F ( 0 ) ] ,$
where F(x)is anarbitrary bounded twice differentiable function (with bounded first derivative).

.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.5 with g(x) = Ax + Bx 2.
6. $∫ 0 a | x − A t − B t 2 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , A > 0 , B > 0$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.6 with g(x) = At + Bt 2.
7. $∫ a b | x t − t 2 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , 0 ≤ a < b < ∞$
.
The substitution w(t)= ty(t)leads to an equation of the form 3.1.2:
$∫ a b | x − t | w ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
8. $∫ a b | x 2 − t 2 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x )$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.3 with g(x) = x 2.
Solution: $y ( x ) = d d x [ f x ′ ( x ) 4 x ]$
. The right-hand side f(x) of the equation must satisfy certain constraints, given in 3.8.3.
9. $∫ 0 a | x 2 − β t 2 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , β > 0$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.4 with g(x) = x 2 and β = λ2.
10. $∫ 0 a | A x + B x 2 − A λ t − B λ 2 t 2 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , λ > 0$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.4 with g(x)=Ax + Bx 2.
#### 3.1-3 Kernels Containing Integer Powers of x and t or Rational Functions.
11. $∫ a b | x − t | 3 y ( t ) d t = f ( x )$
.
Let us remove the modulus in the integrand:
1 $∫ a x ( x − t ) 3 y ( t ) d t + ∫ x b ( t − x ) 3 y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (1) twice yields
$6 ∫ a x ( x − t ) y ( t ) d t + 6 ∫ x b ( t − x ) y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) .$
This equation can be rewritten in the form 3.1.2:
2 $∫ a b | x − t |y ( t ) d t = 1 6 f ″ x x ( x ) .$
Therefore the solution of the integral equation is given by
3 $y ( x ) = 1 12 y ″ ″ x x x x ( x ) .$
The right-hand side f(x) of the equation must satisfy certain conditions. To obtain these conditions, one must substitute solution (3) into (1) with x = a and x = b and into(2) with x = a and x = b,and then integrate the four resulting relations by parts.
12. $∫ a b | x 3 − t 3 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x )$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.3 with g(x) = x 3.
13. $∫ a b | x t 2 − t 3 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) 0 ≤ a < b < ∞$
.
The substitution w(t)= t 2 y ( t )leads to an equation of the form 3.1.2:
$∫ a b | x − t | w ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
14. $∫ a b | x 2 t − t 3 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x )$
.
The substitution w(t) = |t| y(t)leads to an equation of the form 3.1.8:
$∫ a b | x 2 − t 2 | w ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
15. $∫ 0 a | x 3 − β t 3 | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , β > 0$
.
This is a special case of equation 3.8.4 with g ( x ) = x 3 and β = λ 3 .
16. $∫ a b | x − t | 2 n + 1 y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , n = 0 , 1 , 2 , …$
Solution:
1 $y ( x ) = 1 2 ( 2 n + 1 ) ! f x ( 2 n + 2 ) ( x ) .$
The right-hand side f(x) of the equation must satisfy certain conditions. To obtain these conditions, one must substitute solution (1) into the relations
$∫ a b ( t − a ) 2 n + 1 y ( t ) d t = f ( a ) , ∫ a b ( t − a ) 2 n − k y ( t ) d t = ( − 1 ) k + 1 A k f x ( k + 1 ) ( a ) , A k = ( 2 n + 1 ) ( 2 n ) … ( 2 n + 1 − k ) ; k = 0 , 1 , … , 2 n ,$
and then integrate the resulting equations by parts.
17. $∫ 0 ∞ y ( t ) d t x + t = f ( x )$
The left-hand side of this equation is the Stieltjes transform.
1 °. By setting
$x = e z , t = e τ y ( t ) = e − τ / 2 ω ( τ ) , f ( x ) = e − z / 2 g ( z ) ,$
we obtain an integral equation with difference kernel of the form 3.8.15:
$∫ − ∞ ∞ ω ( τ ) d τ 2 cosh [ 1 2 ( z − τ ) ] = g ( z ) ,$
whose solution is given by
$w ( z ) = 1 2 π 3 ∫ − ∞ ∞ cosh ( π u ) g ˜ ( u ) e i u x d u , g ˜ ( u ) = 1 2 π ∫ − ∞ ∞ g ( z ) e − i u x d z , i 2 = − 1.$
2°.Solution:
$y ( x ) = 1 2 π i lim ε → + 0 [ f ( − x − i ε ) − f ( − x + i ε ) ] = 1 π x ∑ k = 0 ∞ ( − 1 ) k ( 2 k ) ! ( π x d d x ) 2 k [ x f ( x ) ] .$
3°.Under some assumptions, the solution of the original equation can be represented in the form
1 $y ( x ) = lim n → ∞ ( − 1 ) n ( n + 1 ) ! ( n − 1 ) [ x 2 n + 1 f x ( n ) ( x ) ] x ( n + 1 ) ,$
which is the real inversion of the Stieltjes transform.
An alternative form of the solution is
2 $y ( x ) = lim n → ∞ ( − 1 ) n 2 π ( e n ) 2 n [ x 2 n f x ( n ) ( x ) ] x ( n ) .$
To obtain an approximate solution of the integral equation, one restricts oneself to a specific value of n in (1) or (2) instead of taking the limit.

25. $∫ 0 a | x k − t k | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , 0 < k < 1 , 0 < a < ∞$
.
1°.Let us remove the modulus in the integrand:
1 $∫ 0 x ( x k − t k ) y ( t ) d t + ∫ x a ( t k − x k ) y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x yields
2 $k x k − 1 ∫ 0 x y ( t ) d t − k x k − 1 ∫ x a y ( t ) d t = f ′ x ( x ) .$
Let us divide both sides of (2) by kx k–1 and differentiate the resulting equation. As a result, we obtain the solution
3 $y ( x ) = 1 2 k d d x [ x 1 − k f ′ x ( x ) ] .$
2°.Let us demonstrate that the right-hand side f ( x ) of the integral equation must satisfy certainrelations. By setting x=0 and x=a, in (1), we obtain two corollaries $∫ 0 a t k y ( t ) d t = f ( 0 )$

and $a f x ′ ( a ) = 2 k f ( a ) + 2 k f ( 0 )$ . Hence, the desired constraints for f ( x ) have the form
5 $f ( 0 ) + f ( a ) = 0 , f ′ x ( a ) = 0.$
Conditions (5) make it possible to find the admissible general form of the right-hand side of the integral equation:
$f ( x ) = F ( x ) + A x + B , A = − F ′ x ( a ) , B = 1 2 [ a F ′ x ( a ) − F ( a ) − F ( 0 ) ] ,$
where F( x ) is an arbitrary bounded twice differentiable function with bounded first derivative. The first derivative may be unbounded at x = 0, in which case the conditions $[ x 1 − k F x ′ ] x = 0 = 0$
must hold.

Let us differentiate (1) with respect to x twice and then divide both the sides by λ(λ +1). As aresult, we obtain
2 $∫ a x ( x − t ) λ − 1 y ( t ) d t + ∫ x b ( t − x ) λ − 1 y ( t ) d t = 1 λ ( λ+1 ) f ″ x x ( x ) .$
Rewrite equation (2) in the form
3 $∫ a b y ( t ) d t | x − t | k = 1 λ ( λ + 1 ) f ″ x x ( x ) , k = 1 − λ .$

#### 3.2-1 Kernels Containing Exponential Functions of the Form e λ | x − t |

.
Solution:
$y ( x ) = 1 2 λ [ λ 2 f ( x ) − f ″ x x ( x ) ] .$

2. $∫ 0 ∞ e − λ | x − t | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , f ( ∞ ) = 0$
.
1 °. Solution:
$y ( x ) = 1 2 λ e − λ x d d x e 2 λ x d d x e − λ x f ( x ) .$
$If f x ′ ( 0 ) − λ f ( 0 ) = 0$
then
$y ( x ) = 1 2 λ [ λ 2 f ( x ) − f ″ x x ( x ) ] .$
3. $∫ a b e λ | x − t | y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , − ∞ < a < b < ∞$
.
1 °. Let us remove the modulus in the integrand:
1 $∫ a x e λ ( x − t ) y ( t ) d t + ∫ x b e λ ( t − x ) y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x twice yields
2 $2 λ y ( x ) + λ 2 ∫ a x e λ ( x − t ) y ( t ) d t + λ 2 ∫ x b e λ ( t − x ) y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) .$
By eliminating the integral terms from (1) and (2), we obtain the solution
3 $y ( x ) = 1 2 λ [ f ″ x x ( x ) − λ 2 f ( x ) ] .$
2°.The right-hand side f(x) of the integral equation must satisfy certain relations. By setting x = a and x = b in (1), we obtain two corollaries
4 $∫ a b e λ t y ( t ) d t = e λ a f ( a ) , ∫ a b e − λ t y ( t ) d t = e − λ b f ( b ) .$
On substituting the solution y(x) of (3) into (4) and then integrating by parts, we see that
$e λ b f ′ x ( b ) − e λ a f ′ x ( a ) = λ e λ a f ( a ) + λ e λ b f ( b ) , e − λ b f ′ x ( b ) − e − λ a f ′ x ( a ) = λ e − λ a f ( a ) + λ e − λ b f ( b ) .$
Hence, we obtainthedesired constraints for f(x):
5 $f ′ x ( a ) + λ f ( a ) = 0 , f ′ x ( b ) − λ f ( b ) = 0.$
The general form of the right-hand side satisfying conditions (5) is given by
$f ( x ) = F ( x ) + A x + B , A = 1 b λ − a λ − 2 [ F ′ x ( a ) + F ′ x ( b ) + λ F ( a ) − λ F ( b ) ] , B = − 1 λ [ F ′ x ( a ) + λ F ( a ) + A a λ + A ] ,$
where F(x) is an arbitrary bounded, twice differentiable function.
4. $∫ a b ( A e λ | x − t | + B e μ | x − t | ) y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , − ∞ < a < b < ∞$
.
Let us remove the modulus in the integrand anddifferentiate the resulting equation with respect to x twice to obtain
1 $2 ( A λ + B μ ) y ( x ) + ∫ a b ( A λ 2 e λ | x − t | + B μ 2 e μ | x − t | ) y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) .$
Eliminating the integral term with $e μ | x − t |$
from (1) with the aid of the original integral equation, we find that
2 $2 ( A λ + B μ ) y ( x ) + A ( λ 2 − μ 2 ) ∫ a b e λ | x − t | y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) − μ 2 f ( x ) .$
For + = 0, this is anequation of the form 3.2.3, and for + ≠ 0, this is an equation of the form 4.2.15.
The right-hand side f(x) must satisfy certain relations, which can be obtained by setting x = a and x = b in the original equation (a similar procedure is used in 3.2.3).
5. $∫ a b [ ∑ k = 1 n A k e x p ( λ k | x − t | ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , − ∞ < a < b < ∞$
.
1 °. Let us remove the modulus in the kth summand of the integrand:
1 $I k ( x ) = ∫ a b exp ( λ k | x − t | ) y ( t ) d t = ∫ a x exp [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t + ∫ x b exp [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x twice yields
2 $I ′ k = λ k ∫ a x exp [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t − λ k ∫ x b exp [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t , I ″ k = 2 λ k y ( x ) + λ k 2 ∫ a x exp [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t + λ k 2 ∫ x b exp [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t ,$
where the primes denote the derivatives with respect to x.By comparing formulas (1) and (2), we find the relation between $I k ″$
and I k :
3 $I ″ k = 2 λ k y ( x ) + λ k 2 I k , I k = I k ( x ) .$
2°.With the aid of (1), the integral equation can be rewritten in the form
4 $∑ k = 1 n A k I k = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (4) with respect to x twice and taking into account (3), we obtain
5 $σ 1 y ( x ) + ∑ k = 1 n A k λ k 2 I k = f ″ x x ( x ) , σ 1 = 2 ∑ k = 1 n A k λ k .$
Eliminating the integral In from (4) and (5) yields
6 $σ 1 y ( x ) + ∑ k = 1 n − 1 A k ( λ k 2 − λ n 2 ) I k = f ″ x x ( x ) − λ n 2 f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (6) with respect to x twice and eliminating I n–1 from the resulting equation with theaid of (6), we obtain a similar equation whose right-hand side is a second-order linear differential operator (acting on y) with constant coefficients plus the sum $∑ k = 1 n − 2 B k I k$
If we successively eliminate I n−2, I n−3, …, I 1 with theaid of double differentiation, then we finally arrive at a linear nonhomogeneous ordinary differential equation of order 2(n −1) with constant coefficients.
3°.The right-hand side f (x) must satisfy certain conditions. To find these conditions, one must set x = a in the integral equation and its derivatives. (Alternatively, these conditions can be found by setting x = a and x = b in the integral equation and all its derivatives obtained by means of double differentiation.)

For specific functions f (z), one may use tables of inverse Laplace transforms to calculate theintegral (e.g., see Supplement 6).
2°.Forreal z = x, under some assumptions the solution of the original equation can be represented in the form
$y ( x ) = lim n → ∞ ( − 1 ) n n ! ( n x ) n + 1 f x ( n ) ( n x ) ,$
which is the real inversion of the Laplace transform. To calculate the solution approximately, one should restrict oneself to a specific value of n in this formula instead of taking the limit.

Differentiating (1) with respect to x twice yields
2 $I ′ k = λ k ∫ a x cosh [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t − λ k ∫ x d cosh [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t , I ″ k = 2 λ k y ( x ) + λ k 2 ∫ a x sinh [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t + λ k 2 ∫ x b sinh [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t ,$

1 °. Let us remove the modulus in the integrand:
1 $∫ a x sin [ λ ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t + ∫ x b sin [ λ ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x twice yields
2 $2 λ y ( x ) − λ 2 ∫ a x sin [ λ ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t − λ 2 ∫ x b sin [ λ ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) .$
Eliminating the integral terms from (1) and (2), we obtain the solution
3 $y ( x ) = 1 2 λ [ f ″ x x ( x ) + λ 2 f ( x ) ] .$
2°.Theright-handside f(x) of the integral equation must satisfy certain relations. By setting x = a and x = b in (1), we obtain two corollaries
4 $∫ a b sin [ λ ( t − a ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ( a ) , ∫ a b sin [ λ ( b − t ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ( b ) .$

The general form of the right-hand side of the integral equation is given by
6 $f ( x ) = F ( x ) + A x + B ,$
where F(x) is an arbitrary bounded twice differentiable function, and the coefficients A and B are expressed in terms of F (a), F (b), $F ′ x$
(a), and $F ′ x$ (b)and can be determined by substituting formula (6) into conditions (5).
12. $∫ a b { A sin ( λ | x − t | ) + B sin ( μ | x − t | ) } y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , − ∞ < a < b < ∞$

Let us remove the modulus in the integrand and differentiate the equation with respect to x twice to obtain
1 $2 ( A λ + B μ ) y ( x ) − ∫ a b { A λ 2 sin ( λ | x − t | ) + B μ 2 sin ( μ | x − t | ) } y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) .$
Eliminating the integral term with sin (μ|x – t|) from (1) with the aid of the original equation, we find that
2 $2 ( A λ + B μ ) y ( x ) + A ( μ 2 − λ 2 ) ∫ a b sin ( λ | x − t | ) y ( t ) d t = f ″ x x ( x ) + μ 2 f ( x ) .$
For + = 0, this is an equation of the form 3.5.11 and for + ≠ 0, this is an equation of the form 4.5.29.
The right-hand side f(x) must satisfy certain relations, which can be obtained by setting x = a and x = b in theoriginal equation (a similar procedure is used in 3.5.11).

15. $∫ a b sin 3 ( λ | x − t | ) y ( t ) d t = f ( x )$
.
Using the formula sin3 $β = − 1 4$
sin β, we arrive at an equation of the form 3.5.12:
$∫ a b [ − 1 4 A sin ( 3 λ | x − t | ) + 3 4 A sin ( λ | x − t | ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) .$
16. $∫ a b [ ∑ k = 1 n A k sin ( λ k | x − t | ) ] y ( t ) d t = f ( x ) , − ∞ < a < b < ∞$
.
1 °. Let us remove the modulus in the kth summand of the integrand:
1 $I k ( x ) = ∫ a b sin ( λ k | x − t | ) y ( t ) d t = ∫ a x sin [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t + ∫ x b sin [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t .$
Differentiating (1) with respect to x yields
2 $I ′ k = λ k ∫ a x cos [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t − λ k ∫ x b cos [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t , I ″ k = 2 λ k y ( x ) − λ k 2 ∫ a x sin [ λ k ( x − t ) ] y ( t ) d t − λ k 2 ∫ x b sin [ λ k ( t − x ) ] y ( t ) d t ,$
where the primes denote the derivatives with respect to x.Bycomparing formulas (1) and (2), we find the relation between $I ″ k$
and I k :
3 $I ″ k = 2 λ k y ( x ) − λ k 2 I k , I k = I k ( x ) .$
2°.With the aid of (1), the integral equation can be rewritten in the form
4 $∑ k = 1 n A k I k = f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (4) with respect to x twiceand taking into account (3), we find that
5 $σ 1 y ( x ) − ∑ k = 1 n A k λ k 2 I k = f ″ x x ( x ) , σ 1 = 2 ∑ k = 1 n A k λ k .$
Eliminating the integral In from (4) and (5) yields
6 $σ 1 y ( x ) + ∑ k = 1 n − 1 A k ( λ n 2 − λ k 2 ) I k = f ″ x x ( x ) + λ n 2 f ( x ) .$
Differentiating (6) with respect to x twice and eliminating I n−1 from the resulting equation with theaid of (6), we obtain a similar equation whose left-hand side is a second-order linear differential operator (acting on y) with constant coefficients plus the sum $∑ k = 1 n − 2 B k I k$
If we successively eliminate I n−2, I n−3,…,with the aid of double differentiation, then we finally arrive at a linear nonhomogeneous ordinary differential equation of order 2(n −1) with constant coefficients.
3°.The right-hand side f (x) must satisfy certain conditions. To find these conditions, one should set x = a in the integral equation and its derivatives. (Alternatively, these conditions can be found by setting x = a and x = b in the integral equation and all its derivatives obtained by means of double differentiation.)

# Moving from RCB to CR design, how much bias is introduced?
We designed a RCB experiment and assigned the factor levels to the experimental units randomly inside each block. Let's pretend we changed our mind and we would like to go for a Completely Randomized design. A new completely randomized assignment of factor levels to experimental units is not possible since the experiment has already begun. We have to stay with the RCB assigment (thus having 1 replicate in each former block).
The question is: how much bias would we introduce in the analysis of variance if we analysed the RCB configuration pretending it to be a CR configuration? I know that the RCB configuration can be considered as one of the $n$ equally probable random configurations, but is there a way to account for this bias in the further analysis?
Update
The reason we would like to move from RCB to CR is that, from modelling studies, our block has no significant effect on the response varible, and, as gung pointed out, it would decrease the power of the test we will perform. Since Blocks do not significantly affect the response variable of the experimental units, in case we moved to a CR design, can the replicates (previously randomized within non-significant blocks) be considered as randomized within the whole population?
This question is relevant also for post-hoc analysis, if a RCB ANOVA results in blocks not being significant, is a CR ANOVA appropriate on a configuration that was not completely randomized?

https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/502411/are-there-two-ways-of-representing-a-vector-i-e-parrallelogram-and-resolution
|
# Are there two ways of representing a vector i.e., parrallelogram and resolution?
the question was:
The component of a vector is
(a) Always less than its magnitude
(b) Always greater than its magnitude
(c) Always equal to its magnitude
(d) None of these
according to me ans will be none of these because
The magnitude of the component of a vector (projection) may be less than or equal to the magnitude(never more than it.) of the vector itself which will depend on what you are taking the components along. The magnitude of the component may be equal to the magnitude of the vector if and only of the projection is taken along itself, otherwise, it will always be less. For instance, consider a vector 4i where i is a unit vector along the x-axis. Now the magnitude of the component of this vector along the x-axis is 4, same as that of the vector. Now, consider a vector 3i+4j, where i and j are unit vectors along x and y-axis respectively, the magnitude of this vector is 5 but the magnitude of components of this vector are 3 and 4 along the x and y-axis respectively.
but my teacher told me:
The component of a vector may be less than, greater than or equal to its magnitude.
i didnot understood how the component can be greater than the vector itself
on asking he showed me this :
my question is : can a vector have components in any set of two directions you choose that may not be mutually perpendicular. ?
. . . . can a vector have components in any set of two directions you choose that may not be mutually perpendicular. ?
Yes.
If $$\hat a$$ and $$\hat b$$ are two unit vectors (axis directions) which are not colinear to one another then any vector $$\vec c$$ can be resolved into two components $$a$$ and $$b$$ such that $$\vec c = a\,\hat a + b\,\hat b$$.
Notice that the only condition for the unit vector (axis directions) is that they must not be colinear to one another, ie they can be orientated at any angle relative to one another other than $$0^\circ$$ or $$180^\circ$$.
Perhaps an example will help?
Suppose there is a displacement from an origin of $$6$$ in the direction North-East and the two chosen axes are $$\hat y$$ which is the direction North and $$\hat x$$ which is in the direction East.
Then this displacement of $$6$$ in the North-Easterly direction is the same as a displacement $$3\sqrt 2$$ East then $$3\sqrt 2$$ North.
This displacement can be written as $$3\sqrt 2 \, \hat x + 3 \sqrt 2 \,\hat y$$ and these two components are shown as red vectors in the diagram below.
Now consider a displacement equal to $$6$$ North_West, $$\hat {y'}$$, followed by a displacement of $$6\sqrt 2$$ East, $$\hat x$$.
The total displacement can be written as $$6 \, \hat {y'}+ 6 \sqrt 2 \,\hat x$$ and these two components are shown as blue vectors in the diagram below.
• oh wow .. great explanation ... thanks once again – Garima Singh Sep 12 '19 at 10:52
• Sir I think it should be 6 root 2 x instead of 3 root 2 x in last second line. and one more thing why you have taken the northwest direction as y' and not as x'? – Garima Singh Sep 12 '19 at 15:40
• @GarimaSingh Many thanks. I have corrected my error. – Farcher Sep 12 '19 at 15:43
Of course vector can be decomposed into any set of two directions chosen arbitrary. That's the basis of vector algebra. Mutually perpendicular components exists only in Euclidean space which is sub-set of more general vector representation rule.
Another way to think, is that rectangle is a special case of parallelogram where all inner angles are $$\frac{\pi}{2}$$.
Parallelogram is a special case of Trapezoid. And so on, until the most general case of polygon.

### O having higher FC than N
Why is it that in [NO]+, there is a triple bond where N has an FC of 0 and O has an FC of +1 when O is more electronegative? Why doesn't it form a double bond so that N has the higher FC and O is at 0? For reference, this is 3.48.a, thanks.

### Re: O having higher FC than N
Hey Isa,
If you draw both Lewis structures out, you will see that having a double bond between each atom results in a full octet for O, but not N. With a triple bond, they both have full octets.

# Eigenvalues of an integral operator with non-degenerate kernel
I am trying to find the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the integral operator $Ku=\int_0^\pi k(x,y)u(y)dy$ with the following kernel: $k( x,y) = \sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2} \sin\big((n+1)x\big)\sin(ny)$.
Using the DCT we can exchange the sum and the integral to get: $$\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2} \sin\big((n+1)x\big) \int_0^{\pi}\sin(ny)u(y)dy=\lambda u(y)$$
Now the LHS looks like a Fourier series of a function but I cannot guess which one. Any hints?
P.S. There is exactly the same question here Find eigenfunctions of the integral operator with kernel $\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2} \sin((n+1)x)\sin(ny)$, with no answer and I followed the given hint there by replacing $u$ with its Fourier series but the integral terms argued there to be zero are definitely wrong.
The functions $\{ \sin(nx) \}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ form a complete orthogonal basis for $L^2(0,\pi)$ because they are the eigenfunction solutions of $$-y'' = \lambda y,\;\;\; y(0)=y(\pi)=0.$$ The normalization constants are $$\int_{0}^{\pi}\sin^2(nx)dx=\frac{1}{2}\int_{0}^{2\pi}\sin^2(nx)dx = \frac{1}{4}\int_{0}^{2\pi}\sin^2(nx)+\cos^2(nx)dx = \frac{\pi}{2}.$$ Any $f\in L^2(0,\pi)$ can be written uniquely as $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}f_n\sin(nx)$ where $\{ f_n \}_{n=1}^{\infty} \in \ell^2$. In fact, $$f_n = \frac{2}{\pi}\int_{0}^{\pi}f(x)\sin(nx)dx,\;\; n=1,2,3,\cdots.$$ So your problem can be reduced to a problem on $\ell^2(\mathbb{N})$, where $u$ is represented by $\{ u_n \}_{n=1}^{\infty}$. The eigenfunction problem becomes a coefficient problem in $\ell^2$: $$Ku=\lambda u \\ \int_{0}^{\pi}u(y)k(x,y)dy=\lambda u(x) \\ \int_{0}^{\pi}u(y)\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^2}\sin((n+1)x)\sin(ny)dy=\lambda u(x)$$ This gives coefficient equations after rewriting as \begin{align} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^2}\sin((n+1)x)\frac{\pi}{2}u_n&=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\lambda u_n\sin(nx) \\ \sum_{n=2}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(n-1)^2}\sin(nx)\frac{\pi}{2}u_{n-1} & = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \lambda u_n \sin(nx). \end{align} There is no $\sin(x)$ term on the left, which forces $\lambda u_1=0$. The general $u_n$ must satisfy $$\frac{\pi}{2}\frac{1}{(n-1)^2}u_{n-1}=\lambda u_n,\;\; n \ge 2.$$ If $\lambda \ne 0$, then $u_1 =0$ and every $u_n=0$ for $n > 1$ by the above. If $\lambda = 0$, then every $u_n=0$ by the above. So there are no eigenvalues of this operataor. That means that the operator $K$ is quasinilpotent with spectrum $\{0\}$.

Here's a second answer which addresses the innards of the question, rather than simply the title: Is the total momentum of the electron in a hydrogen atom zero? The ground-state electron wavefunction is, up to a normalization, $$\left|\psi_{100}\right> = e^{-r/2a} = \exp \frac{-1}{2a}\sqrt{x^2+y^2+z^2}$$ The momentum operator is $\hat p = i\hbar \vec\... 0 The electron could emit radiation only by lowering its energy. But quantum mechanics says that energy is quantized for the bound states of the$1/r$potential, and only certain values of energy are allowed. The electron would then have to decay to a lower energy level, but since it is already in the lowest possible level (the fundamental state), it cannot go ... -2 The answers posted so far repeat the common fallacy that Maxwell's Equations do not apply to the hydrogen atom. They may not work for the Bohr atom, but they certainly explain everything the hydrogen atom does in terms of its emission and absorption of radiation. In the Schroedinger equation there is a charge density, and for the eigenfunctions of the ... 15 The existence of hydrogen atoms is enough to demonstrate that the electrons don't emit radiation. If they did, that energy would have to come from somewhere. The only place it could come from would be a reduction of orbital radius until the electron finally reaches the nucleus. If you accept that electrodynamics applies, then you have to accept that atoms ... 5 In addition to the answers already given, which answer the question pretty-well, I'll say that, historically, this exact question was the one which puzzled Niels Bohr enough to inspire him to advance his famous theoretical-explanation for the several observed frequencies of the radiations emitted from hydrogen-atoms ... in general, the fact that electrons in ... 9 Because of its wave nature, the electron in its ground state is actually smeared symmetrically about the proton (ignoring spin-spin effects), and spherically symmetric charge distributions do not radiate (there's no special direction). Accelerated charges do not always radiate em radiation. See also How to find the magnetic field due to a revolving electron ... 26 You have your "prove" in the wrong place. The way to prove that ground-state electrons in hydrogen atoms don't emit radiation is the following: Construct a sample of ground-state neutral hydrogen atoms. Place this sample near a detector which is sensitive to the sort of EM radiation you expect. Die of old age waiting for a signal, because ground-state ... 8 I believe some of the answer in the links are correct, others are less obvious and might even be confusing.

A difference can occur when either current is flowing down the ... 2 For wave mechanics there is the phase velocity and group velocity. For the energy$E~=~\hbar\omega$the phase velocity is $$v_p~=~\frac{\omega}{k}~=~\frac{\hbar}{2m}(k~+~ck^3).$$ This is the velocity of a wave front, or where the phase of the wave is constant. There is also the group velocity that is $$v_g~=~\frac{\partial\omega}{\partial k}~=~\frac{\hbar}... 1 f(E) is the probability that a quantum state of energy E is occupied. There are two quantum states (for two spin states) at each energy. The probability cannot be doubled, since that could then exceed 1. All that happens for a spin 1/2 particle is that the number of available quantum states is doubled. 1 Your confusion arises from the fact that you are confusing scalars and vectors. Scalars, are like numbers, and they have only magnitude. Vectors on the other hand have direction in addition to magnitude.

Instead we have learned simply to accept the observed fact that the electron is deflected by magnetic fields. If one insists on the image of a spinning ... 1 The solution to this interesting question has to involve both (a) the distortion of the electric field of point charges when they move close to the speed of light and (b) time (since the longer we wait the further apart the electrons become, so their mutual force becomes smaller). Since the electrons are moving along the same straight line we can reduce ... 1 The reason is there is no known force that is strong enough to hold it there. Electrons are quantum particles having very small mass. But we can show how order of magnitude calculations using a minimum amount of quantum mechanics (the position-momentum uncertainty principle) and mechanical energy principles lead to correct order of magnitude results for the ... 1 The probability distribution for finding a ground-state hydrogen atom's electron in some volume is given by dP = |\psi|^2 d^3x, where the wavefunction \psi is given by$$ \psi_{n\ell m} = \psi_{000} = \frac1{\sqrt{4\pi}}\frac2{a_0^{3/2}}e^{-r/a_0}$$where$a_0 \approx \frac12\times10^{-10}\rm\,m$is the Bohr radius.

To go ... 2 The electron and positron are two point charges with opposite sign, and classically , as the field lines are an iconal representation of the charge, when the charge becomes zero there will be no electric field lines from the spot where the two point particles overlap. BUT electrons and positrons are quantum mechanical particles and when close enough ... 5 The force between the charges goes to zero. To see this, work in the frame of one of the charges. From its perspective, the other point charge is moving rapidly away, and the field of a moving charge is weaker along the direction of motion, as shown below. One cheap way of seeing this is to pretend the field lines have been "length contracted". For ... 5 In general the wavenumber is a vector. That is,$e^{i(\vec{k}\cdot\vec{x}-\omega t)}$is a solution to the wave equation in 3 (or any number) dimensions.

So properly the de Broglie relation is$\vec{p} = \hbar \...

This refers to the Feynman rule that crossing fermionic lines produce relative minus signs between amplitudes.

Measurements disturb the double slit experiment because of the particle nature of light and matter.

Charge is conserved, so the equation of continuity should be applied, .

So if the divergence of J is positive, then more charge is ...

Long ago somebody decided that the direction of "conventional" current flow was the same direction as the direction of flow of positive charges. In that convention the flow of negative charge in one direction is equivalent to the flow of positive charge (and hence the conventional current) in the opposite direction. When introduced electricity usually ...

Nothing "flows" actually. Electrons transfer the electrical energy by hitting each other. And even if you consider flowing, only electrons free. Protons cannot because they're held strongly in nucleus. About charge, textbooks usually refers it as positive. That means, we just take the opposite direction of electron flow as +ve charge (because electrons are ...

To answer your question we have to keep in mind, that holes are quasi particles. They are a mathematical formalism. They are introduced as empty states in the valence band. From a physical point of view it makes sense to construct these particles, as they really have the properties of real charge carriers. The hole energy is at its minimum at the top of the ...

Voltage is the electric potential. As already pointed out by ticster, it is analogous to the gravitational potential, which can be intuited as the height of a hill on earth (higher points having higher gravitational potential).

Electricity is not flow of electrons, it is the flow of charge which can be positive or negative. When books tell us that electricity is flow of electrons, they are merely talking about conductors or alloys where only electrons can flow as protons are too heavy to flow. Voltage or the potential difference is generally electric pressure or electric potential....

Books tell us that electricity is constituted only by electrons. But in reality protons also cause electricity. In some materials like conductors this is an exception as protons are fixed at their places and are too heavy to move. So basically electricity is a flow of charge which could be positive or negative.

With static electricity, the electrons cannot move because the material used is an insulator. Hence there is no current. If the material were conductive, then a current would flow, and there would be no accumulation of charge. Electromagnetic fields will induce a voltage in a conductor, so there will be a current as well. You also need to remember that ...

In simple terms it is a matter of scale. The sort of demonstration you see in laboratories have induced emf of a few volts and currents of a few milliamperes.

# Linear Lagrange Interpolating Polynomials Examples 1
Recall from the Linear Lagrange Interpolating Polynomials page that if we have two points $(x_0, y_0)$, $(x_1, y_1)$ where $x_0$ and $x_1$ are distinct, then the linear Lagrange polynomial $P_1$ that interpolates these points is the polynomial of degree less than or equal to $1$ and for $L_0(x) = \frac{x - x_1}{x_0 - x_1}$ and $L_1(x) = \frac{x - x_0}{x_1 - x_0}$ is given by the formula:
(1)
\begin{align} \quad P_1(x) = y_0L_0(x) + y_1L_1(x) \end{align}
Let's look at some examples of finding these sort of polynomials.
## Example 1
Consider the function $y = \log (x)$. Find the linear Lagrange polynomial $P_1$ that interpolates the points $(1, 0)$ and $(10, 1)$. Use $P_1$ to approximate the value of $\log (2) \approx 0.301029...$.
Using the formula above we have that:
(2)
\begin{align} \quad P_1(x) = \frac{1(x - 1) + 0(10 - x)}{10 - 1} = \frac{x - 1}{9} \end{align}
We have that $P_1(2) = \frac{1}{9} = 0.111...$. As we can see, using $P_1(2)$ to approximate $\log (2)$ is not that accurate.
## Example 2
Consider the function $y = \sqrt[3]{x}$. Find the linear Lagrange interpolating polynomial $P_1$ that interpolates the points $(1, 1)$ and $(8, 2)$. Use $P_1$ to approximate the value of $\sqrt[3]{3} \approx 1.44224$.
Using the formula above we have that:
(3)
\begin{align} \quad P_1(x) = \frac{2(x - 1) + 1(8 - x)}{8 - 1} = \frac{x + 6}{7} \end{align}
We have that $P_1(3) = \frac{9}{7} \approx 1.2857...$, so using $P_1(3)$ to approximate $\sqrt[3]{3}$ is somewhat accurate.

P: What happened today will happen tomorrow.
Q: The sun rose today.
R: The sun will rise tomorrow.
$(P \wedge Q) \Rightarrow R$ is how I would have put the previous propositions together.
I'm being a bit of a stickler for logic here, but stricly speaking, that hypothetical conditional is not deductively true due simply to the truth of its antecedent and its consequent. If you state it in argument form, you get simply P AND R, therefore Q. Stated as such, the truth value of Q is independent of the truth values of P and R. It requires a different formulation of the propositions to produce a valid argument form. So let's start over.
What happened today will happen tomorrow.
The sun rose today.
Therefore, the sun will rise tomorrow.
First we'll restate this as:
For any x, If x happened today, Then x will happen tomorrow.
s happened today.
Therefore, s will happen tomorrow.
Where x is the general propositional variable and s is "the sun rose." We will use H to mean "happened today" and T to mean "will happen tomorrow." We can now translate to:
For any x, If Hx, Then Tx.
Hs.
Therefore, Hs.
Using symbolic connectives, the argument form is:
1. $(x)(Hx \Rightarrow Tx)$
2. $Hs$
$\therefore Ts$
We can then prove the validity of this argument by the following two steps:
3. $Hs \Rightarrow Ts$ From line 1 by Universal Instantiation
4. $Ts$ From lines 3 and 2 by Modus Ponens
This is the only way to capture the inner logical structure of the propositions, by virtue of which the conclusion "The sun will rise tomorrow" becomes deductively valid.

in response to page 3( I'm fashionably late as usual :P )
you guys kept arguing about something and tried to prove yourself with logic. it went something like: i can prove that the sun orbits the earth becuz of math and science and equations. but could you have a infinite regression on proofs? where do you draw the line on what requires a proof, to say that this is a absolute truth and not just some flaw from what we humans see.to say that there are no unknown wierd things that humans (don't know about)/( haven't experienced) is kinda of hypocritical. saying logic proves 1 thing but not another possibility. im not saying that there is anything out there that could destroy the sun or stop the earth from revolving around it, but that there could be. where do you get the FAITH to say that you are right and nothin will destroy the sun tommorrow? from probablity? prob is based on human perception and if this "thing", whatever it is, is unknown to humans how do you then say that is isnt probable? i agree with TenYears on this one, and also HonestRoseWater on the fact that ambiguity is , while mabye not my biggest or only enemy, it sure is a big one.

loseyourname,

is a typo, right?
3mpathy,
Yes, ambiguity is exactly why we haven't settled the question yet. Defining faith doesn't settle the question if the definition is ambiguous. We seem to have settled on "belief without justification" as the definition of faith, but still haven't clarified what belief and justification mean.
The talk about assumptions, provisions, tentative belief, etc. has gone towards clarifying what belief means, the talk about observation, verification, logic, etc. towards clarifying what justification means.
As others have pointed out, we're also taking the question to mean more than face value. Presumably, faith is faith regardless of the object. Most of the posts have assumed the question to be about justification.
Did anyone read all of http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/knowledge-analysis/? Our question is exactly what it discusses- belief and justification.
You know hinduism is mostly a mixture of science and religion. It used religion to propogate science. For eg. You r supposed to worship trees and animals. This prevented people from killing them. It says that neem leaves will bring godess to ur house. Neem is very good for health. It has virucidal effect. So many wonders are there in hinduism. Its basically science for the lay man. You cant tell everyone about the chemical composition of various products, the reactions with the body and so on. So instead indians used faith in god to promote this. Dont you think they were brilliant?

No, I think that had little, if anything, to do with science. Its akin to Native Americans worshiping nature - that doesn't mean they understood anything about how it worked.
SOMEWHAT:
If knowledge is only belief because you dont know anything you believe it then like you believe in religion you believe in science, except the two are on different levels, science has an extreme amount of backing to it, thats why i believe yes it follows the same concept as having faith in religion but they are two different things.
I believe that we make the same mistake in this discussion for which we condemn those who believe with blind faith. We are accepting a particular slant on what "faith in religion" means from a source we view with scepticism. Further, we do not account for our own, perhaps unresearched, biases. You may normally expect a leaning towards the material or pragmatic view of the universe from a science forum. Maybe a little of the Heisenberg Principle takes effect in such discussions.
There must be a reason that, until recently, the major civilizations of the world were denoted by their religious affiliation. Western civilization was Christian. The Mideast was Islamic (which, by the way, is NOT older than Christianity). We had Buddhist and Hindu civilizations. And so on.
I think the difficulty stems from two unrecognized concepts: 1) There is a vast difference in a Faith at its inception and for several centuries following, then there is at its maturity. 2) Faiths are generally founded by a Central Figure who directs humanity on two levels: the spiritual and the earthly.
I can find no fundamental difference in the spiritual teachings of the major Faiths of the world. The differences that can be traced to the Founders of these Faiths have to do with earthly direction. For instance, Moses permitted divorce, Christ did not, Muhammed did. And I think what keeps these Faiths divided well after they no longer inspire and uplift is the fact that clergy need to maintain a separateness to maintain power and control.
Clearly the social laws and teachings of any of these Founders are meant to last but for a time, and to be replaced as needed by the succeeding Founders of the next Faiths. Further, I do not see these Founders being in conflict one with another. The Christ never said He was the only way to heaven, altho at His time He was, perhaps, the clearest and most direct route. Moses said of the Christ, "He will be like me." "He will be the same as myself." "He will be the same as I am." One of the first things the Christ did was to honor Moses. Christ spoke of others to come.
So what clearly happens is that a Faith has its seasons: spring (birth), summer (growth), harvest (attains the goals its Founder desired) and winter (continues on after it is doing more harm than good). Winter is caused by clergy needing the Faith to survive, and by some need in humanity--not endorsed by any Founder--to make themselves special, chosen, set apart and above the rest of humanity.
My perspective is that the Founders have all instructed the same type of investigation into truth we now call the scientific method. They were unafraid of serious and intense search into Themselves, Their lives and Their teachings. The concept of not investigating, of having to "believe what you know ain't so" (Mark Twain) comes from the winter time of a religion, when clergy, powerless to create good, unable to inspire the human heart to strive for spiritual worth, unable to explain or perfect the realities of a world that has progressed beyond its knowledge, attempts to stamp out investigation.
Mohammed appeared in the 7th century A.D. Christianity has been in its winter ever since. Similar to Judaism when the Christ appeared in what we now call the Holy Land (home of four major religions). Was Moses bad because His followers, wishing to maintain authority and position, rejected Christ? Do you see anywhere where Moses Himself instructed people to believe INSTEAD of learning? No.
So the concepts of religion that seem to cause revulsion in today's scientist are actually the same concepts that cause revulsion in the Founders of Faiths. One of the main differences, of course, is that it is this blind dogmatism that gets these Founders persecuted, tortured, reviled, exiled, and martyred. They hate what you hate. Without realizing, you, as a proponent of rational thought, and believing based upon conscious knowledge, are propagating one of the major tenets of the Founders of Religion. What you cast behind you is not Religion, but churches, superstitious sects, mindless ritual, worthless rites, power-hungry clergy. It is no more the fault of the Founders of these Faiths that Religion deteriorates into this black hole of the spirit than the atom bomb was the fault of Relativity. Humanity can corrupt anything.
There is still at least one religion that believes you cannot know without investigation of truth. It also believes one of the greatest tools of humanity is science, and that science must be fostered at every opportunity. Perhaps there are more religions such as this.
A word on miracles. Miracles have nothing to do with Religion. They are not, and were never intended to be, a proof of anything. You do not see any Founders of Faiths telling anyone, "See? I can do this, so you must believe me." Universally, the Founders of Faiths made little of their miracles, encouraged their followers to tell no one, and never spoke of them Themselves.
My guess is that most everything that has to do with true Religion has nothing to do with the churches you have grown to distrust and reject.
Just like Religion needs to change with the times, science, too, must update itself as knowledge grows. Failure to do so is the same as a religion turning into a church. This does happen in science. Scientists form their own sort of clergy, and control power, funding, publication and the like. There is no human endeavor we will not chisel down from its ideal form. So Science in the ideal is similar to Religion in the ideal, and science deteriorated is as religion corrupted.
Thus, there is no other answer to the poll than "very much."

Yeah, that's a typo. It should read "Therefore, Ts." Sorry about that.
i chose not @ all for the following reason, faith in science needs poofs , evidence, logic.
but faith in religion is beleiving without seeing, and this is make us different, this is what "JESUS" wanted in the first place,he could proove that he existed but i won't make any sense we'll all beleive in him and then what? what will happen?

The thing is that a standard of justification applies to all beliefs, whether their objects are "scientific" or "religious". For example, if direct observation is a justification for belief, and someone has directly observed X, they are justified in believing X, whether X is the risen sun or the risen Son.
And since a standard of justification applies to all beliefs, if we want to show a difference between scientific and religious belief, we must compare their standards of justification. In science, the standards of justification are expounded in the scientific method. Is there a "religious method" that serves the same function in religion as the scientific method serves in science?
BTW, simply defining "religious belief" as "not scientific belief" doesn't show an actual difference between them, it just assumes one by definition and won't lead us anywhere but in circles.
Integral said:
While I agree that there is a certain amount of faith in Science it is of a much different sort of faith then religious faith. For Science I must have some faith that my existence and the existence of the universe has some validity. I must have faith that the universe will continue to work tomorrow as it did yesterday. So far my believing or not believed that a object will fall to the ground with constant acceleration has had no effect. It appears that the fundamental laws of the universe work whether we believed in them or not. So for science I must have faith that repeatable physical observations have meaning.
Religious faith on the other hand is faith in unverifiable and unobservable assumptions. Religion is all about the unobservable, Physics is about the observable. Trouble arise when concepts which traditionally have been considered unobservable and explainable only with religious faith become observable and explainable through science.
Euclid's axioms are observable or not? Can you ever observe a line, circle, point, etc? If a line is not observable (and it isn't), are you saying faith in religion is the same as faith in mathematics? I don't think you're saying that but I thought I'd like to give you a good belly laugh.
So if I interpret you correctly, the two faiths are different. One is a faith in falsifiable claims and the other is a faith in non-falsifiable claims?
Why do you think that religion involves unverifiable and unobservable assumptions? And why do you call them assumptions rather than conclusions? I mean, can you back this statement up that they're assumptions and they're unverifiable? Can you prove they're unverifiable? I hope so otherwise some mentor might come along to delete your post; oh, wait, that's only done when a mentor disagrees with what is written but can't come up with a counterargument. j/k
Now if you assume that there is an unobservable pink elephant living on Alpha Centauri (or Santa Claus), key part of the assumption being that it's unobservable, then you can't use science to prove this PE exists.
It seems to me you are assuming that only what is observable is verifiable. Well, have you ever seen an electron? I bet the answer is no but you have seen things that imply an electron exists, right? Is an electron observable? I question what you mean by observable.
However, to suggest that in religion the claims are about the unobservable is a gross misunderstanding of it IMO. Consider so called religious experiences or as I would prefer to call them spiritual experiences. If one were to witness God, what would one expect it to be like?
I have a friend who claims to have "seen God", ie, observed God. She had a powerful experience, like a NDE, that changed her life. Now was it God she observed or was that just , well, something else? How do you know?
You might as well ask me to prove that when I'm talking to my friend Marc, that I am actually talking to Marc. How can I prove the voice on the phone belongs to Marc or is even human? Likewise, how can I prove I observe God? I can't. Maybe you can.
So I have faith that what I and others have observed is God and I have faith that when I talk to Marc I am talking to Marc. But I do not believe that the claims made by religion are unobservable. At least not all of them.
And since the claims made by religion are observable, at least some of them, your rationale would then equate the two kinds of faith.

Well, Integral can respond for themselves ( :rofl: is Integral a him or her?) I just have a few quick questions.
How are others supposed to verify your statement, or how can they reproduce your experience for themselves? Presumably, science can give detailed instructions on how to detect an electron- you follow the instructions, and you can detect an electron for yourself. Same goes for math and logic; If you follow the instructions, you can prove 1+1=2 for yourself. Same goes for at least some religions; If you follow the instructions, you can experience some religious object for yourself. So what if someone has followed the instructions, but they don't detect or prove or experience? How do science, logic, and religion handle that situation?
Edit: I'm just getting all the "instructions," to line up. I am SO cool.

I would like to make a statement which I am not too sure about and might be wrong but if it is somewhat valid, at least it would start some sorta discussion.
In the case of energy conservation, it is a fundamental principle in physics, but are we taking it on faith? As in, there are certain phenomena which obey conservation laws, but what about those which don't (not really energy time uncertainty thing because energy is conserved throughout) and we don't know what they really are?
So, are we taking COE by faith?

And, before you respond to this, consider how your answer applies to other formally similar situations. For example, experincing winning the lotto.
The observation of said things (eg the experience of winning the lottery and God) is at first glance rare even when the intstructions are followed.
Here's what my friend did before she had that particular religious experience which was a NDE. She said, "'god', if you don't show yourself to me, I'm going to kill myself," and she, being quite depressed, actually may have meant it. Then the religious experience followed.
I have never tried that nor will I nor do I suggest you do so.
But if you do and you don't have a religious experience, then what? I would say that, for some reason I do not know, the religious experience is rare to start with not unlike winning the lottery.
However, enough people have "won the lottery" so that I don't think Integral is correct when he says the claims are unobservable. I will grant that observing God is rare, it seems, but it is also rare to observe an electron for what percent of the population has observed one?

I think there are a couple of issues: the ability to recognize correct instructions and one's predilections.
If one is instructed improperly, then one might dedicatedly practice incorrect instructions forever and get nowhere. I've seen, for example, people practice racquetball for many hours. When they complain they aren't improving yet practicing so much, the better players will say "yes, but you aren't practicing correctly, and so you are actually reinforcing all your bad habits." Often they will stubbornly continue their own way anyway and continue to improve at bad habits.
Something along these lines that seems relevant was a link http://www.lingsoft.fi/~reriksso/competence.html [Broken] Tom posted in another thread about the bliss of incompetence. The opening paragraphs claim:
There are many incompetent people in the world. But a Cornell University study has shown that most incompetent people do not know that they are incompetent.
People who do things badly, according to David A. Dunning, a professor of psychology at Cornell, are usually supremely confident of their abilities -- more confident, in fact, than people who do things well.
One reason that the ignorant also tend to be the blissfully self-assured, the researchers believe, is that the skills required for competence often are the same skills necessary to recognize competence.
Since they don't recognize they are incompetent, they also don't know they are unqualified to teach others. And then, if not many people really know what the correct instructions are, they don't know how to chose an instructor. So just because there are lots of instructors, or because one has an instructor, doesn't mean someone is following the correct instructions.
The other issue, that of one's predilections, is also important. I personally do not "enjoy" math beyond what I need to use in my everyday life. I did well in it in school, but I couldn't wait to get to classes which to me were more concrete (say, history). We tend to enjoy what we naturally excel at, which means we will return to it and apply ourselves. So even if someone receives perfect instructions it doesn't mean they are going to apply themselves in such a way that it produces results. One can't fault the instructions in such a case.
In terms of faith in science and religion, I don't believe there is any difference in the faith principles. I have faith in science because it seems to "work" every time it is properly applied to the proper circumstances. To me, that is the basis of faith (in a practice) . . . if something works.
Religion, that is a tough one because for lots of people it works on a personal level. Some anthropologists, for instance, might say it "works" because it helps people have morals, be calmer, do good works, etc. But that's not all religion claims it is supposed to do for people. How does it "work" for getting people to God (or whatever term one prefers . . . for me it's "something more")? Personally, religion has never worked for me in the slightest that way. But the meditation I practice has. So I don't have faith in religion because it hasn't worked, and I do have faith in a specific type of meditation (when practiced correctly).

A recent addition to the Yttrium framework is the system builder. The idea is to define a "command based" description of a math system (MathSystem class) to separate the construction of such a system from the system itself. In incorporates ideas from the builder design pattern. The central point is the ISystemBuilder interface, defining the description mentioned above.
There are always to parts, communication by the said interface: a director or reader, and a builder or writer. The interesting point is that both parts are interchangeable: any reader works with any writer and vice versa.
Predefined Writers
• SystemWriter: constructs a complete math system.
• XmlSystemWriter: describes a complete system in Xml.
• ExpressionWriter: experimental, describes a system in the Yttrium expression language supported by the parsing infrastructure (kinf of a mixture between the Maple language and VHDL).
• SystemReader: describes a complete math system.
• XmlSystemReader: describes a complete system based on Xml.
Because the parts may be combined at will, it opens several useful operations:
Cloning a MathSystem
Cloning a system is as simple as combining a SystemReader with a SystemWriter:
1: 2: 3: 4: SystemWriter writer = new SystemWriter(myContext); SystemReader reader = new SystemReader(writer); reader.ReadSystem(mySystem); MathSystem clone = writer.WrittenSystems.Dequeue();
Shortcut:
1: MathSystem clone = mySystem.Clone();
Serialize a MathSystem to Xml
Just combine the SystemReader with an XmlWriter:
1: 2: 3: 4: XmlSystemWriter writer = new XmlSystemWriter(myContext, myWriter); SystemReader reader = new SystemReader(writer); reader.ReadSystem(mySystem); myWriter.Flush();
Shortcut:
1: mySystem.WriteXml(myWriter);
Deserialize a MathSystem from Xml
1: 2: 3: 4: SystemWriter writer = new SystemWriter(myContext); XmlSystemReader reader = new XmlSystemReader(writer); xreader.ReadSystems(myReader, false); MathSystem system = writer.WrittenSystems.Dequeue();
Shortcut:
1: MathSystem system = MathSystem.ReadXml(myReader, myContext);

Home » Analytics and Data Mining, Featured » Methods for multidimensional scaling
This blog is part 1 of a series featuring excerpts from the original technical paper, “Methods for Multidimensional Scaling” by Douglas B. Clarkson, IMSL, Inc., 1987.
Multidimensional scaling is concerned with models and techniques for locating objects in a multidimensional space based upon distance measurements between the objects.
The data in a multidimensional scaling (MDS) problem consists of one or more dissimilarity matrices, where a dissimilarity is a measure of distance between stimuli, and each matrix gives the dissimilarities between the stimuli considered.
In the simplest problems, one matrix is used and the dissimilarities are symmetric. An example of such a matrix is the matrix of intercity mileages often found on road maps, where the distance between two cities is the dissimilarity measure. Often, more than one matrix is observed. For example, several different mapmakers’ estimations of the distances between cities may be observed. Since each mapmaker may use different methods for measuring distance, different distance matrices will result. Regardless of the number of matrices observed, the MDS problem is to locate the stimuli (cities) in a multidimensional space of known dimension based upon the observed dissimilarities.
The distance measures
A dissimilarity matrix need not be symmetric. An example of multidimensional scaling data with asymmetric dissimilarity matrices is given in Table 1. The stimuli are seven stores and the observed dissimilarity is the rank of the distance of the column store from the row store. In other words, for each row, the column store with rank 1 is closest to the row store, the column store with rank 2 is second closest, etc. This matrix is clearly not symmetric since the dissimilarity measures $$d_{ij} \ne d_{ji}$$. Moreover, because of the method used for data collection, comparison of ranks in row $$i$$ with ranks in row $$j$$ should not be made.
Historically, four types of dissimilarity data have most often been considered as input in multidimensional scaling problems:
• Nominal data using categories for distance. (Distances corresponding to dissimilarities within the same category are assumed identical)
• Ordinal data, as in the example above, using the rank of the distance
• Interval data, using distance plus a constant
• Ratio data, using distance
Models involving ratio or interval data are called metric scaling models, while models with nominal or ordinal data are called non-metric scaling models. Distance need not be Euclidean. For example, $$r^2_{pq}$$ could be used as the distance measure between stimuli $$p$$ and $$q$$, where $$r^2_{pq}$$ is the correlation coefficient between variables $$p$$ and $$q$$.
The sampling/measurement method
Another common consideration in multidimensional scaling is the sampling/measurement scheme used in collecting the data. In the above example, because the rankings were made within each row, comparisons of ranks between rows are not meaningful. If instead a dissimilarity matrix is provided by each of two judges, then the dissimilarities between the two matrices cannot be compared unless it can be verified that the two judges used the same scale and judging criteria. In general, the sampling/measurement scheme used to obtain the data determines strata (or conditionality groups) within which dissimilarities can be compared, while comparison of dissimilarities between strata does not make sense.
Three sampling/measurement schemes are defined as follows:
• If sampling/measurement is such that all dissimilarity measures can be compared, then the data come from a single stratum and are said to be unconditional data.
• If only dissimilarity measures within a matrix can be compared, then each matrix is a stratum, and the data are said to be matrix conditional.
• If sampling is such that only dissimilarity measures within a row of each dissimilarity matrix can be compared, then each row of each matrix is a stratum, and the data are said to be row conditional.
A distance model
Generally, the stimuli are located in an $$\tau$$-dimensional Euclidean space, $$\tau \ge 1$$, in such a manner that the agreement between the observed dissimilarities (whether ordinal, ratio, etc.) and the predicted distances is in some sense optimal. In order to locate the stimuli, some model for the distance between stimuli must be specified.
In this example, the model is Euclidean and is given by:
$$\delta_{ij} = \sqrt{\sum_{k=1}^{\tau} (X_{ik} – X_{jk})^2}$$
where $$X_{ik}$$ is the coordinate of the $$i^{th}$$ stimulus in the $$k^{th}$$ of $$\tau$$ dimensions in the Euclidean space and the matrix $$X$$ is called the configuration matrix. For a given $$X$$, the model gives the distances between all stimuli.
Since the distance between stimuli is translation invariant, the location of the origin is arbitrary. In the following, the origin is assumed to be zero, so that $$\sum_i X_{ik} = 0$$. Also, the Euclidean model, unlike other distance models, is rotation invariant (i.e., multiplying $$X$$ by an orthogonal matrix $$T, X = XT$$ yields the same distance measures). This means that the configuration obtained is not unique rotationally. Usually, no attempt is made for the Euclidean model to obtain a unique solution with respect to rotation, although any of the orthogonal rotations in factor analysis could be used for this purpose.
A criterion function
In order to estimate parameters, a criterion function, usually called the stress function, may be minimized. In this example, the stress function is given as:
$$q = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n \sum_{j=1}^n (\tilde{\delta}_{ij} – \delta_{ij})^2}{ \sum_{i=1}^n \sum_{j=1}^n (\tilde{\delta}_{ij})^2} = \omega \sum\limits_{i=1}^n \sum\limits_{j=1}^n (\tilde{\delta}_{ij} – \delta_{ij})^2$$
where $$n$$ is the number of stimuli and $$\tilde{\delta}$$ denotes the optimal dissimilarities, called the disparities.
In metric data, $$q$$ is optimized with respect to $$\delta$$ only, whereas in non-metric data, q is optimized with respect to both $$\delta$$ and the disparities $$\tilde{\delta}_{ij}$$. Let $$\hat{\delta}$$ denote predicted values of $$\delta$$. Disparities in non-metric data are found from the predicted distances $$\hat{\delta}$$, such that the rank requirements of ordinal data or the equivalence requirements of nominal data are satisfied and an optimal criterion function is obtained. With the stress $$q$$ above, ordinal data disparities are optimal when they are taken as the monotonic regression of $$\hat{\delta}$$ on the observed ranks within each stratum. In categorical data, the disparities $$\tilde{\delta}$$ are optimal when they are estimated as the average of all $$\hat{\delta}$$ within the same category and stratum.
The numerator in the above criterion function is a least squares criterion, whereas the denominator (or $$\omega$$ ) is a scaling factor. Scaling is required in non-metric data to prevent the solution from becoming degenerate. If the denominator were not present, $$q$$ could be made as small as desired by simultaneously scaling both $$\hat{\delta}$$ and $$\tilde{\delta}$$ downward. Different criterion functions are often used in metric data, which do not have this scaling requirement.
Monotonic regression
As an example of the monotonic regression used in optimizing $$\tilde{\delta}$$ in ordinal data, consider the following table in which the data corresponds to the store example discussed above.
In this table, the rank of the distance between each store and store 7 is given in the second row. Using the estimated configuration matrix $$\hat{X}$$, the predicted distances $$\hat{\delta}$$ are computed in the third row of the table, while the disparities $$\tilde{\delta}$$ are given in the fourth row. Note in the third row that the predicted distances (.69, .65, .44) for stores 1, 3, and 6 are not in the order required by the observed ranks. Because the disparities must preserve the observed ranks, the order in the estimated disparities must be reversed from the order obtained from $$\hat{\delta}$$. In order to accomplish this, the monotonic regression averages adjacent elements of $$\hat{\delta}$$ as required to obtain $$\tilde{\delta}$$. (See Barlow, Bartholomew, Brunk, and Bremmer (1972) for a discussion of how to determine when averaging is “required .” ) This results in the disparities given in the fourth row, in which the first three predicted distances are averaged, as are predicted distances 4 and 5. The resulting $$\tilde{\delta}$$ preserves the rank requirements of the observed data and is as close as possible to $$\hat{\delta}$$, in the least squares sense.
An example
An optimal configuration estimated for the example above is given in Table 3 and plotted as the symbol ‘+’ in Figure 1. The store locations which gave rise to the rankings in Table 1 are plotted as symbol ‘o’ in Figure 1. In comparing the actual with the optimized store locations, note that scale is unimportant since ranked distances were used. (Scale differences between the axis are important, however.) For these data, the optimal criterion is 0.0, indicating a perfect fit.
Even though the fit is perfect, differences in store locations between the observed and estimated data occur because of the lack of uniqueness of the estimated configuration in non-metric scaling. In the figure, scale changes and rotation with possibly a translation bring the two figures close together.
Lack of uniqueness in the estimated configuration in ordinal data (in addition to translation, scale, and rotation problems) can be seen as follows. Assume a perfect fit so that the numerator of the stress is 0.0 while the denominator has no effect on the stress value. Now change the configuration in such a manner that the ranks of the resulting predicted distances are unchanged. For ordinal data, this is always possible. Then the monotonic regression yields disparity estimates which equal the altered distance estimates (since the stress is zero and the rankings have not changed), and the new stress is again zero. Thus the new configuration fits as well as the old configuration, verifying that the configuration estimates are not unique.
The same uniqueness problems occur when the optimal stress is not zero, but the argument is complicated in this case by the changing denominator. In general, if all other parameters are assumed fixed, then an interval of estimates for each estimated parameter, all yielding the same stress value, is available. The interval will change, of course, when other model parameters are allowed to vary.
What’s next
In our next blog, we pick up from here with a discussion of a generalized criterion function, along with possible further generalizations that may be useful. Later blogs will cover computational procedures for optimization and parameter estimation and provide a more complicated example using ordinal data.

# Solving literal equations
## What is literal equation
What is the solving literal equation definition? It is when you have to solve a formula for a certain variable. Sometimes, you may need to solve for a variable that isn’t the standard one. An example of this is the distance formula. The formula to finding distance is:
$D = rt$
$r$ stands for rate, and $t$ stands for time. The standard variable that you’d solve for is $D$, for distance.
Perhaps in the question you’re faced with, you may need to find the rate rather than solving for distance. In that case, you may need to rearrange the formula so that you can solve the literal equation.
## How to solve literal equations
Looking at literal equations, you may be worried about how you’ll go about solving them. However, they’re actually tackled in a way that’s very similar to how you’ve been solving equations all along. The only difference is that since you’re working with variables rather than numbers, you may not be able to simplify down your answer too much.
When you’re given a question that asks you to solve for a literal equation, you’ll be given a formula and then asked to solve for the indicated variable. That variable likely won’t be isolated onto its own side, which is what you’ll have to do. Take into account what you’ve done previously for equations where you’ve had to move terms to the other side of the equal sign. When you’ve got a positive number, take the negative of it from both sides. When you’ve got a number to multiply, take the division of it on both sides. When you’re done isolating the variable to equalling the rest of the variables moved over to the other side of the equal sign, you’ve successfully solved your literal equation!
## Example problems
Question 1:
Solve each of the formulas for the indicated variable.
i) $a = bc$ for $c$.
Solution:
We’ll have to isolate $c$, which means $b$ has to be moved when we’re solving for a variable ($c$ in this case).
$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{bc}{b}$
$b$ on the right side cancels out each other, and we are left with:
$\frac{a}{b} = c$
$c = \frac{a}{b}$
ii) $\frac{x}{y} = z$ for $x$.
Solution:
$\frac{x}{y} = z$
Multiply $y$ to both sides in order to move $y$ over to the right hand side.
$y \bullet \frac{x}{y} = z \bullet y$
$y$ on the left side cancels out each other, and we’re left with:
$x = yz$
Question 2:
Solve each of the formulas for the indicated variable.
i) $p = 3q + 3r$ for $r$.
Solution:
$p = 3q + 3r$
Subtract $3q$ from both sides
$p - 3q = 3r$
Divide $3$ on both sides
$\frac{p - 3q}{3} = \frac{3r}{3}$
$r = \frac{p - 3q}{3}$
ii) $r = 2x + 3xy$ for $x$.
Solution:
$r = 2x + 3xy$
Factor out $x$ on the right side
$r = x(2 + 3y)$
Divide $(2+3y)$from both sides
$\frac{r}{(2 + 3y)} = \frac{x(2 + 3y)}{(2 + 3y)}$
$x = \frac{r}{(2 + 3y)}$
Question 3:
Solve each of the formulas for the indicated variable.
i) $3(4x - y) = 6$ for $x$.
Solution:
$3(4x - y) = 6$
Divide $3$ from both sides
$\frac{3(4x - y)}{3} = \frac{6}{3}$
$4x - y = 2$
Add $y$ to both sides
$4x - y + y = 2 + y$
$4x = 2 + y$
Divide $4$ from both sides
$\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{(2 + y)}{4}$
$x = \frac{2 + y}{4}$

• # Abstract
The progress of single crystal followed by C$_4$H$_6$O$_6$ (tartaric acid) and BaCl$_2$ (barium chloride) (TABC; third order nonlinear optics semi-organic) was synthesized with slow evaporation method using distilled water at room temperature. TABC single crystal was introduced into various characterizations like X-ray diffraction to determine inter atomic cell parameter values. The samples are crystalline structure of monoclinic, which have space group of P$_2$. The functional groups of the current material are identified using FT-IR spectrum. Optical parameters like transparency, energy bandgap and Urbach energy have been determined using UV–vis–NIR spectrum. The thermal stability of the material was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter analysis. The mechanical property was studied using Vickers microhardness test. The surface morphology of the material was determined by scanning electron microscope technique. The change in dielectric behaviour of TABC with respect to the function of frequency at various temperatures has been keenly absorbed and discussed. The third-order nonlinear optical parameters were measured using Z-scan analyses.

# Spatial Weights as Distance Functions
## Introduction
In this Chapter, we consider two situations where the values for the spatial weights take on a special meaning. The weights are transformations of the original distances. The two examples covered consist of inverse distance functions and kernel weights.
The resulting weights files primarily provide the basis for creating new spatially explicit variables for use in further analyses, such as in spatial regression specifications.2 The weights themselves are not used in measures of spatial autocorrelation or other exploratory analyses in GeoDa, where only the existence of a neighbor relation is taken into account.
We will illustrate this functionality with the data set that we used earlier for point locations of house sales for Cleveland, OH.
### Objectives
• Compute inverse distance functions
• Compute kernel weights functions
• Assess the characteristics of weights based on distance functions
• Understand the contents of KWT format weights files
#### GeoDa functions covered
• Weight File Creation dialog
• inverse distance weights
• kernel weights
• bandwidth options
• diagonal element options
### Getting started
We will again use the data set that contains the location and sales price of 205 homes in a core area of Cleveland, OH for the fourth quarter of 2015. We get started by clearing the previous project and dropping the file clev_sls_154_core.shp into the Drop files here rectangle of the connect to data source dialog. Alternatively, we can use a project file if we saved one earilier (e.g., clev_sls_154_core.gda). The familiar themeless base map results, as in Figure 1.
If desired, we can again add the base layer and change the point colors and selection default. We pass on this for now.
## Inverse Distance Weights
### Concepts
One can readily view spatial weights based on a distance cut-off as representing a step function, with a value of 1 for neighbors with $$d_{ij} < \delta$$, and a value of 0 for others. As before, $$d_{ij}$$ stands for the distance between observations $$i$$ and $$j$$, and $$\delta$$ is the bandwidth.
A straightforward extension of this principle is to consider a continuous parameterized function of distance itself: $$$w_{ij} = f(d_{ij},\mathbf{\theta}),$$$ with $$f$$ as a functional form and $$\mathbf{\theta}$$ a vector of parameters.
In order to conform to Tobler’s first law of geography, a distance decay effect must be respected.3 In other words, the value of the function of distance needs to decrease with a growing distance. More formally, the partial derivative of the distance function with respect to distance should be negative, $$\partial w_{ij} / \partial d_{ij} < 0$$.
Commonly used distance functions are the inverse, with $$w_{ij} = 1 / d_{ij}^{\alpha}$$ (and $$\alpha$$ as a parameter), and the negative exponential, with $$w_{ij} = e^{-\beta d_{ij}}$$ (and $$\beta$$ as a parameter). The functions are often combined with a distance cut-off criterion, such that $$w_{ij} = 0$$ for $$d_{ij} > \delta$$.
In practice, the parameters are seldom estimated, but typically set to a fixed value, such as $$\alpha = 1$$ for inverse distance weights ($$1/d_{ij}$$), and $$\alpha = 2$$ for gravity weights ($$1/d_{ij}^{2}$$). By convention, the diagonal elements of the spatial weights are set to zero and not computed. Plugging in a value of $$d_{ii} = 0$$ would yield division by zero for inverse distance weights.
The distance-based weights depend not only on the parameter value and functional form, but also on the metric used for distance. Since the weights are inversely related to distance, large values for the latter will yield small values for the former, and vice versa. This may be a problem in practice when the distances are so large (i.e., measured in small units) that the corresponding inverse distance weights become close to zero, possibly resulting in a zero spatial weights matrix.
In addition, a potential problem may occur when the distance metric is such that distances take on values less than one. As a consequence, some inverse distance values may be larger than one, which is typically not a desired result.
Rescaling of the coordinates will fix both problems.
### Creating inverse distance functions for distance bands
We proceed in the usual fashion to create spatial weights based on an inverse distance function. In the Weights File Creation interface, we specify unique_id as the ID variable, and select the Distance Weight option.
As before, we choose Distance band from the three types of weights. The default bandwidth of 3598.055030 is the same as encountered previously. We keep it as is for now. The inverse distance option is invoked by the check box below the bandwidth entry, as in Figure 2. For now, we keep the Power value to its default of 1.
Clicking on the Create button results in the usual query for a file name specification. The inverse distance weights are saved in a file with a GWT extension, say clev_sls_154_core_id1.gwt.
#### Properties of inverse distance weights
As soon as the file is created, the properties of the weights appear in the weights manager, as illustrated in Figure 3.
Since the properties only pertain to the connectivity structure implied by the weights, they are identical to the ones obtained for the standard distance-band weights. It is important to keep in mind that the actual values for the weights are ignored in this operation. The only differences between the two property lists are the listing of inverse distance as true, and the value for power as 1.
The connectivity map and the connectivity graph associated with the weights are the same as before as well. For example, the connectivity graph shown in Figure 4 is identical to the one we obtained for the distance-band weights.
The default bandwidth is such that each location is ensured to have at least one neighbor, but as we have seen before, this can be changed. This allows inverse distance weights to be calculated for any bandwidth specified. For example, if the bandwidth is set as the maximum inter-point distance, the resulting weights will be for a full matrix. This is not recommended for larger data sets, but it can provide a useful point of departure to compute various accessibility indices.4
#### Inverse distance weights in the GWT file
Figure 5 provides a comparison of the entries in the GWT file for respectively the distance-band weights and the inverse distance weights. We notice that the pairs of neighbors are identical, as expected. Also, the value for the inverse distance weight is exactly the inverse of the distance.
#### Using non-geographical coordinates
So far, we have been using the default setting of <X-Centroids> and <Y-Centroids> for the coordinates that were the input into the distance calculations. However, this option is perfectly general, and any two variables contained in the data set can be specified as x, y coordinates. For example, this allows for the computation of so-called socio-economic weights, where the difference between two locations on any two variables can be used as the distance metric.5
We illustrate this feature in Figure 6, where we explicitly specify the x and y coordinates as the variables x and y (the sample data set does not include any other meaningful variables besides the house price). Also, we compute inverse distance squared by setting the Power parameter to 2.
The contents of the resulting GWT file are shown in Figure 7. This highlights the problem alluded to above, i.e., that the value of the weights critically depends on the distance metric. In our example, the second power of the inverse distances result in weights that are essentially not distinguishable from zero.
Note that since the connectivity properties ignore the actual weights, they will again not differ from the ones obtained for the matching distance-band weights. However, any calculation of spatially explicit variables using these weights (e.g., a spatially lagged variable) would be largely meaningless, since the spatially lagged variables would all roughly equal zero. The importance of this potential problem cannot be stressed enough, since a mechanical computation using these weights could lead to very misleading results in further analyses.
### Creating inverse distance functions for k-nearest neighbors
Computing inverse distance weights is not limited to a distance band specification. As shown in Figure 8, the inverse distance option is also available for K-Nearest neighbors.
This option works in the same way as for the distance bands. With the Number of neighbors and a Power specified, the new weights are computed from the distances between the k nearest neighbors for each location. In Figure 9, the original k-nearest distances (with k=6, as specified in Figure 8) and the corresponding inverse weights entries are shown from the respective GWT files.
As is the case for the inverse distance band weights, the actual values of the inverse knn weights are ignored in further spatial analyses in GeoDa. They can only be used in the calculation of spatially explicit variables.6
## Kernel Weights
### Concepts
Kernel weights are used in non-parametric approaches to model spatial covariance, such as in the HAC method for heteroskedastic and spatial autocorrelation consistent variance estimates.7 In GeoDa, kernel functions can be computed, but as is the case for the other distance functions, the actual values of the weights are only used in the computation of spatially explicit variables.
The kernel weights are defined as a function $$K(z)$$ of the ratio between the distance $$d_{ij}$$ from $$i$$ to $$j$$, and the bandwidth $$h_i$$, with $$z = d_{ij} / h_i$$. This ensures that $$z$$ is always less than 1. For distances greater than the bandwidth, $$K(z) = 0$$.
Five different kernel weights functions are currently supported:
• Uniform, $$K(z) = 1/2$$ for $$|z| < 1$$,
• Triangular, $$K(z) = (1 - |z| )$$ for $$|z| < 1$$,
• Quadratic or Epanechnikov, $$K(z) = (3/4) (1 - z^2)$$ for $$|z| < 1$$,8
• Quartic, $$K(z) = (15/16)(1 - z^2)^2$$ for $$|z| < 1$$, and
• Gaussian. $$K(z) = (2 \pi)^{(1/2)} \exp(- z^2 / 2)$$.9
Typically, the value for the diagonal elements of the weights is set to 1, although GeoDa allows for the actual kernel value to be used as well.
Many careful decisions must be made in selecting a kernel weights function. Apart from the choice of a functional form for $$K(\ )$$, a crucial aspect is the selection of the bandwidth. In the literature, the latter is found to be more important than the functional form.
A drawback of fixed bandwidth kernel weights is that the number of non-zero weights can vary considerably, especially when the density of the point locations is not uniform throughout space. This is the same problem encountered for the distance band spatial weights.
In GeoDa, there are two types of fixed bandwidths for kernel weights. One is the max-min distance used earlier (the largest of the nearest-neighbor distances). The other is the maximum distance for a given specification of k-nearest neighbors. For example, with knn set to a given value, this is the distance between the selected k-nearest neighbors pairs that are the farthest apart.
To correct for the issues associated with a fixed bandwidth, a variable bandwidth approach adjusts the bandwidth for each location to ensure equal or near-equal coverage. One common approach is to take the k-nearest neighbors, and to adjust the bandwidth for each location such that exactly k neighbors are included in the kernel function. The bandwidth specific to each location is then any distance larger than its k nearest neighbor distance, but less than the k+1 nearest neighbor distance.
In GeoDa, the default value for k equals the cube root of the number of observations (following the recommendation in Kelejian and Prucha 2007). In general, a wider bandwidth gives smoother and more robust results, so the bandwidth should always be set at least as large as the recommended default.
### Creating kernel weights
We create kernel weights in the by now familiar fashion, by selecting the Adaptive kernel option under the Distance Weight button of the Weights File Creation dialog. Figure 10 illustrates the five kernel functions that are available.
To illustrate this functionality, we select the Triangular option, with the Adaptive bandwidth set to the default number of neighbors of 6. We also leave the Diagonal weights option to its default of 1 (i.e., the kernel function is not applied to a distance of zero for the diagonal elements). These settings are illustrated in Figure 11.
The results are saved in a file with file extension KWT (such as clev_sls_154_core_tri6.kwt). The KWT file extension is adopted to retain compatibility with the conventions assumed for PySAL and its spreg module, as implemented in GeoDaSpace. Except for the inclusion of the diagonal element, its structure is the same as a GWT format file.
The contents of the KWT file in our example are shown in the right-hand panel of Figure 12, compared to the knn distances in the corresponding GWT file on the left.
A few characteristics of the results should be noted. First, the bandwidth is determined by the largest distance among the six neighbors. In the current example, for the first observation considered (with unique_id 1183), this is the distance given on the first row. The distance between 1183 and 6842 amounts to 3253.02459, as shown in the left panel of Figure 12. By convention, each other distance is converted to a value less than one by dividing it by this maximum distance.
For example, for the second pair (between 1183 and 2024), this would yield 1858.90398/3253.02459 = 0.571439 (the $$z$$-value referred to above). The result for the triangular kernel is then 1 - 0.571439 = 0.428561, i.e., the value shown on the second line of the KWT file.
For the pair with the largest distance, the value of the kernel is zero (1 - 1). Finally, for the diagonal element (the pair 1183, 1183), the kernel is given as 1, by construction.10
#### Properties of kernel weights
As soon as the weights are created, their properties appear in the weights manager. As illustrated in Figure 13, the descriptive statistics are again the same as for standard knn weights. The differences are in the first six items. The type of weights is given as kernel, the kernel method is identified (triangular), with the bandwidth definition (knn 6) and adptive kernel set to true. It is also indicated that the kernel is not applied to the diagonal elements (kernel to diagonal is false). Also, as for the knn weights, the resulting weights are asymmetric. These items will be saved to a project file when one is created.
Since the connectivity histogram, map and graph ignore the actual weights values and are solely based on the implied connectivity structure, they are identical to those obtained for the corresponding knn weights. For example, Figure 14 showns the connectivity graph, which is the same as generated in the previous Chapter.
#### Treatment of diagonal elements
As mentioned, for a triangular kernel, the diagonal elements equal one, irrespective of the setting for that option. To illustrate the effect of applying the kernel function to the diagonal elements, we choose the Epanechnikov option, as shown Figure 15. The Apply kernel to diagonal weights radio button is selected as well.
All other options are the same as before. The contents of the resulting KWT file, again compared to the knn GWT file, are shown in Figure 16.
As before, the value for the most separated points is zero, but now the diagonal elements equal 0.75, which results from the 3/4 scaling factor being applied to 1. In all other respects, these weights are treated in the same way as the others discussed in this Chapter.

# Quadratic equation with absolute value
Prepping for the GMAT, I came across the following question:
What is the product of all solutions of:
$$x^2 - 4x + 6 = 3 - |x - 1|?$$
First, I set up two equations, ie:
$$x^2 - 4x + 6 = 3 - (x - 1),$$ and $$x^2 - 4x + 6 = 3 - (-1) \times (x - 1).$$
These factor down to $3$ solutions: $1$, $2$ and $4$. And $8$ is correct solution in the back of the prep book.
However, when plugging $4$ back into the original equation, it reduces to $6 = 3$, so $4$ does not seem to be a solution. Also, when graphing both, they only intersect at $1$ and $2$.
What part of my process (and seemingly the practice books process) is wrong?
-
The solutions to $$x^2-4x+6 = 3-(x-1)$$ are only valid when $x-1 \ge 0$, i.e. when $x \ge 1$. Likewise, the solutions to $$x^2-4x+6 = 3+(x-1)$$ are only valid when $x-1 \le 0$, i.e. when $x \le 1$.
Solving the first equation gives $x=1,2$, both of which are valid. Solving the second gives $x=1,4$. Notice that in this latter case $4$ is not valid since $4 \nleq 1$, and so the only solutions to $x^2-4x+6=3-\left|x-1\right|$ are $x=1,2$. (The textbook is wrong!)
-
Thanks Clive. Makes sense. Plotting the equation shows that as well: wolframalpha.com/input/… – jim_shook Aug 2 '12 at 1:38
You seem to be right: only intersections at 1 and 2. For 4 you get 16=0.
-
Hint $\rm\,\ |x\!-\!1| = (x\!-\!1)(3\!-\!x).\:$ Thus either $\rm\: x=1\:$ or $\rm\: 3\!-\!x = |x\!-\!1|/(x\!-\!1) = sgn(x\!-\!1).\:$ Therefore $\rm\:x = 3-sgn(x\!-\!1)\:\Rightarrow\:x>1\:\Rightarrow\: x = 3\!-\!1 = 2.$
-
May I suggest saying something to the effect of "The given equation is equivalent to $|x-1|=(x-1)(3-x)$" instead, so it doesn't look like you're stating an identity? I was confused for a moment. – Rahul Aug 2 '12 at 6:15

Want to share your content on R-bloggers? click here if you have a blog, or here if you don't.
It’s been a while since my last post, so I wanted to dig into my old work-in-progress folder to find something to rework and put up here. So here it is, a fairly handy way to analyse the lyrics of your favourite artists using R and the genius API. This post uses techniques explained in more detail here, and some from this tutorial by Ariane.
## Requirements
Here, you’ll need a genius API token, and the following libraries:
## Using the Genius API
To gain access to lyrics, you can use the genius_token() function from geniusr. Call it with genius_token(TRUE) and paste your token into the console where prompted. You should now be good to begin.
For this example, I’ll be using The Darkness. Anyone who read my previous music post will not be surprised. At all. Since I’m looking at The Darkness, it’s probably only right to begin with I Believe in a Thing Called Love, right? Let’s start by finding the genius ID for the song.
# Song ID
thingCalledLove <- search_genius(search_term = "I Believe in a Thing Called Love")
thingCalledLove[[1]][[1]][6]
thingCalledLove$content[[1]]$id
In the above, both lines 3 and 4 will produce the song’s ID. In our case, it’s 81524. You can then get the lyrics for a song using the get_lyrics_id() function. This produces a table containing the lyrics, the section of the song, among other details.
# Lyrics
thingCalledLoveLyrics <- get_lyrics_id(song_id = 81524)
Now that we see how to get a song’s lyrics, let’s get them for every song The Darkness have. We can do this easily enough. First, we’ll find the artist ID for the band, and can then use a function to get all of their song titles, IDs, and links. We can then use a loop to add each song’s lyrics to a dataframe – more details on that specific part below, it ends up a little less clean than you’d hope.
# Find artist ID
search_artist("The Dakrness") # 22667
songs <- get_artist_songs_df(22667)
# Get all song IDs
ids <- c(as.character(songs$song_id)) # Create empty dataframe to house them allLyrics <- data.frame() # Add lyrics to that df for (id in ids) { allLyrics <- rbind(get_lyrics_id(id), allLyrics) } # Above loop behaves strange Notice that last comment? It is why this blog post was abandoned in the WIP folder like I mentioned in the intro. Running that loop produces an error. It will add the lyrics of a few songs without issue and then fail on a song and end abruptly. No consistency as to which song causes the crash. The same song will work sometimes and fail others. Now, there is a solution, but it ain’t pretty. I am a firm believer of “if it looks stupid but works, it ain’t stupid” but even I am stretched here. Let’s take a look. ### So what’s the fix? R has a tryCatch() function. Usually used to change the output when an error appears, but this can be cheated a little bit. When setting how to handle the error, we can simply use a function that does nothing. See this StackOverflow post for more details. So if we were to put a tryCatch() inside of our loop with no error handling, it would work, right? Almost. this would just prevent the loop from coming to a halt when it reached an error, but whatever song produced the error would not be added to our lyrics df. The solution I’ve opted for, is to place our for loop inside a while loop, that will terminate once all songs are accounted for. Okay, here we go. while (length(ids) > 0) { for (id in ids) { tryCatch({ allLyrics <- rbind(get_lyrics_id(id), allLyrics) successful <- unique(allLyrics$song_id)
ids <- ids[!ids %in% successful]
print(paste("done - ", id))
print(paste("New length is ", length(ids)))
}, error = function(e){})
}
}
So here we add a song to our df, add the song’s ID to a variable named successful, remove the ID from the original list, and print to give us an update as to where we are. This can take a while, each song will take about 3 seconds, so for prolific artists you can use a package like beepr to let you know when this is finished. Since this takes a little while to run, I like to save the df as a csv to more quickly get back to this point in future.
Side note – I am aware that R prefers vectorised methods to loops. Perhaps this is possible using apply(). If you have a cleaner, faster, or plain alternative solution please let me know!
### Extra Details
In order to make the text analysis portion a bit more complete, I’ll add the album each song belongs to to the df. The get_song_df() function returns a dataframe with details on the song that is fed into it. I’ll create a dataframe for each of the IDs, and the album they belong to.
allIds <- data.frame(song_id = unique(allLyrics$song_id)) allIds$album <- ""
And now, a loop to put it all together. get_song_df() returns a 1×13 df, of which position 12 is the album title.
for (song in allIds$song_id) { allIds[match(song,allIds$song_id),2] <- get_song_df(song)[12]
print(allIds[match(song,allIds$song_id),]) } allLyrics <- full_join(allIds, allLyrics) Using head(allIds) shows us a preview of the data, where we can see there is an NA in row 5. In fact, there are a lot of NAs in here. Not to worry though, this is just the case where Genius has cataloged a song that never received an official release on any album. We can replace the NA values with “Single Only” to reflect this. We can then combine our lyrics and albums dfs using a full join, from dplyr. head(allIds) allIds$album[is.na(allIds$album)] <- "Single Only" head(allIds) allLyrics2 <- full_join(allLyrics, allIds) ## Text Analysis Now that we have all of our text, let’s analyse it. First thing to do is to tokenise thee words. This is super easy with tidytext and dplyr. allLyricsTokenised <- allLyrics2 %>% #word is the new column, line the column to retrieve the information from unnest_tokens(word, line) Now, we can count each word to see what is the most common – and knowing The Darkness, I bet it’s “love”. # Count each word - I guarantee love is top allLyricsTokenised %>% count(word, sort = TRUE) Okay, maybe it’s an idea to remove stopwords first. I hope you appreciate that I show my dumb moments in these posts. Removing stop words is a doddle though. # Remove stopwords tidyLyrics <- allLyricsTokenised %>% anti_join(stop_words) # Top words again tidyLyrics %>% count(word, sort = TRUE) ## Preparing the top lyrics for Visualisation In order to visuisalise the most frequent lyrics, we’ll need to rework our dataframe to add a count for each one. dplyr’s group_by() makes this easy. topFew <- tidyLyrics %>% group_by(album, word) %>% mutate(n = row_number()) %>% ungroup() The above adds a count column that increases every time a word appears (since we’ve grouped by the word column). We’ve also grouped by album, meaning we count the number of times a word appears on a specific album – not the total number of times it appears in the band’s discography (we’ll add that later). Next, let’s subset this to only include the total number of times a word appears on each album. For instance, the word “black” appears on Permission to Land 43 times. This means there are 43 rows that contain the count for the word “black”, counting up from 1-43. We only need the row with the max figure. Let’s first ditch any columns that aren’t needed for this part. # Remove extra cols topFew <- topFew[,c("album", "word", "n")] # Take only max for each word by album topFew <- topFew %>% group_by(album, word) %>% summarise(n = max(n))%>% ungroup() Now we can add the total column. This is seen in lines 73/74. Here, we’re grouping by word and adding one every time it appears. We can subset to include only words that appear at least 40 times, and I’m going to remove the word “ooh”. # Subset topFew <- topFew %>% group_by(word) %>% mutate(total = sum(n)) %>% filter(total >= 40, word != "ooh") %>% ungroup() ## Visualising the top lyrics First, I am adding a vector with the colours I want to use for this viz. I used some colours from the artwork of each album to get these. We also need to give the colours names (of the albums they represent), and turn the album column of our word count df into a factor. The factor should contain the levels in reverse chronological order of the albums release date. This will put the albums in release order in our bar chart. # colours for each album albumCol <- c("#394887", # PTL "#9e5a47", # OWT "#f9c784", # Hot cakes "#cf57d4", # Last "#e8b0a5", # PINE "#d18943", # Easter "#4C1A57") # singles names(albumCol) <- c("Permission to Land", "One Way Ticket to Hell... and Back", "Hot Cakes", "Last of Our Kind", "Pinewood Smile", "Easter Is Cancelled", "Single Only") # This ensures bars are stacked in order of release date topFew$album <- factor(topFew$album, levels = c("Single Only", "Easter Is Cancelled", "Pinewood Smile", "Last of Our Kind", "Hot Cakes", "One Way Ticket to Hell... and Back", "Permission to Land" )) Now we’re ready to create a plot. Here, I’m creating a stacked bar chart, flipped to horizontal. The code can be seen below to create the ggplot. I’ve added the band’s logo to the plot by following this blog post from The Mockup. wordsPlot <- ggplot(topFew) + geom_bar(aes(x = reorder(word, total), y = n, fill = as.factor(album)), colour = "black", stat = "identity") + coord_flip() + labs(title = "The Darkness' most used words", subtitle = "The words that appear more than 40 times in The Darkness' catalogue", caption = "Source: genius.com | by @Statnamara", y = "Number of appearances", x = "Word", fill = "Album")+ scale_fill_manual(values = albumCol) + theme(title = element_text(face = "italic", size = 12), panel.border = element_rect(colour = "black", fill=NA, size=1), panel.background = element_rect(colour = "black", fill = "white"), panel.grid.major.x = element_line(colour="grey90",size = 1, linetype = 4), axis.title = element_text(face = "italic",size = 11, colour = "black"), axis.ticks.length = unit(5, units = "pt"), legend.background = NULL, legend.position = "top", legend.key.size = unit(12,"pt"), legend.box.spacing = unit(5,"pt"), legend.text = element_text(size = 12), axis.text.y = element_text(size = 12)) wordsPlot ggsave(filename = "DarknessWords.png", plot = wordsPlot, width = 30, height = 24, units = "cm", type = "cairo") With the amount that these guys are signing about love, I have a feeling they’re super positive guys in general. Why not check? Let’s add a basic sentiment score to our lyrics dataframe and plot that. # Create Sentiment df darknessSentiments <- tidyLyrics %>% inner_join(get_sentiments("bing"))%>% count(album, song_name, sentiment) %>% spread(sentiment, n, fill = 0) %>% mutate(sentiment = positive - negative) # Factor as we did above darknessSentiments$album <- factor(darknessSentiments\$album,
levels = c("Permission to Land",
"One Way Ticket to Hell... and Back",
"Hot Cakes",
"Last of Our Kind",
"Pinewood Smile",
"Easter Is Cancelled",
"Single Only"
))
# sent plot
sentPlot <- ggplot(darknessSentiments,
aes(reorder(song_name,
sentiment),
sentiment,
fill = album)) +
geom_col(show.legend = FALSE) +
facet_wrap(~album,
ncol = 3,
scales = "free")+
scale_fill_manual(values = albumCol)+
labs(title = "The Darkness' songs ranked by sentiment",
caption = "Source: genius.com | by @Statnamara",
y = "Sentiment score",
fill = "Album")+
theme(title = element_text(face = "italic", size = 12),
panel.border = element_rect(colour = "black", fill=NA, size=1),
panel.background = element_rect(colour = "black", fill = "white"),
panel.grid.major.x = element_line(colour="grey90",size = 1, linetype = 4),
axis.title.x = element_text(face = "italic",size = 11, colour = "black"),
axis.title.y = element_blank(),
axis.ticks.length = unit(5, units = "pt"),
legend.background = NULL,
legend.position = "top",
legend.key.size = unit(12,"pt"),
legend.box.spacing = unit(5,"pt")) +
coord_flip()
sentPlot
ggsave(filename = "DarknessSentiment.png", plot = sentPlot, width = 36, height = 24, units = "cm",
type = "cairo")
That’s it for now. Stay tuned for a future post exploring tf-idf analysis on these lyrics and using n-grams to make our own Darkness lyrics. Until then check out my github for the code from today’s post, or learn how to make an animated bar chart race.

# Problem evaluating an improper integral $\int_0^{\infty} \frac{(\sin{2x}-2x\cos{2x})^2}{x^6}$ using fourier transform
This is a question from one of the past papers of my university which I am unable to do. I am not being able to do question 2 from below.
Let $f(x)= a^2-x^2 \,\,\,\,\, |x|<a \\\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, =0 \,\,\,\,\,|x|>a>0$.
Calculate the fourier transform of this function, and hence evaluate: $$1. \int_0^{\infty} \frac{\sin{2x}-2x\cos{2x}}{x^3} \,dx$$ $$2. \int_0^{\infty} \frac{(\sin{2x}-2x\cos{2x})^2}{x^6}\, dx$$
The fourier transform is easy to transform, I have checked this many times and I am sure this is correct. Only only needs to multiply by $\cos$ as it is even.
$\mathcal{F(f)}=2\int_0^{a}(a^2-x^2)\cos{\xi x}\,dx=2\frac{2 \xi^2 a^2 sin{a \xi} + 2 a \xi \cos{a \xi} - 2a \sin{a \xi}}{\xi ^3}$
The first question is obvious. substitute $a=2$, then use the fourier integral representation $\frac{2}{2 \pi}\int_0^{\infty}\hat{f}(\xi) \cos{\xi x}\,d{\xi}=\frac{f(o^{+})+f(o^{-})}{2}$, at $x=0$, so that the cos becomes 1 after subtracting the first term which is the dirichlet integral, you get question 1.
How do I do question 2? Do I have to do integration by parts on each of the function? I have no idea how to handle the square.

Hint: Use Plancherel's formula. – user60725 Apr 30 '13 at 12:39
@BarackObama: I didn't know the plancherel's formula, so I looked it up on the internet, which correct me in I am wrong is $\int_{\mathbb{R}}||f(x)||^2 \, dx = \int_{\mathbb{R}}||\hat{f(\xi)}||^2 \, d {\xi}$. But in my problem, the integrand is not the square of the entire fourier transform. There is an extra term, which I won't be able to integrate after squaring. How do I do it? – ramanujan_dirac Apr 30 '13 at 13:11
First of all, your expression for the FT is incorrect. I get
$$\int_{-a}^a dx \, (a^2-x^2) e^{i k x} = 4 \frac{\sin{a k} - a k \cos{a k}}{k^3}$$
By Parseval-Plancherel, we may write
$$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} dk \: \left ( 4 \frac{\sin{a k} - a k \cos{a k}}{k^3} \right )^2 = 2 \pi \int_{-a}^a dx \, \left ( a^2-x^2 \right )^2$$
Take it from there...
To elaborate, Parseval-Plancherel states that, for a function $f$ and its FT $\hat{f}$, we have
$$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} dx \, |f(x)|^2 = \frac{1}{2 \pi} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} |\hat{f}(k)|^2$$
In any case, I get
$$\int_0^{\infty} dk \frac{(\sin{2k}-2k\cos{2k})^2}{k^6} = \frac{32 \pi}{15}$$

Hi. Should I have taken the sine fourier transform? My sine and cos are interchanged. But the function is even, so the sine part would be zero right? – ramanujan_dirac Apr 30 '13 at 13:30
@ramanujan_dirac: no, you were justified in what you did - it just didn't make things easier for you. I just took the regular FT, and things worked out. Likely, looking at your result, you got a sign wrong. – Ron Gordon Apr 30 '13 at 13:31
At first glance, I am flabbergasted. The first term $\int_o^{\infty}a^2 \cos{\xi x} dx=a^2\frac{\sin{a \xi}}{\xi}=\frac{a^2 \xi ^2 \sin{a \xi} }{\xi ^3}$, which is clearly missing from your answer, and clearly present in mine. The second part done by parts, should't cancel it out. Thanks a lot for the trouble though. :) – ramanujan_dirac Apr 30 '13 at 13:36
@ramanujan_dirac: here's what WA has to say: wolframalpha.com/input/… – Ron Gordon Apr 30 '13 at 13:38
Thanks! I missed a term in the second integral. I am really clumsy in my calculations. Sorry for the trouble. – ramanujan_dirac Apr 30 '13 at 13:52

How do I solve for x the following equation
$$\sqrt[m]{(1+x)^2}-\sqrt[m]{(1-x)^2}=\sqrt[m]{1-x^2}$$
Thanks very much in advance!

"However, x_2 is only valid when m is an odd integer."
This may be a silly question, but could you explain to me why that is the case? Thanks.

Easiest way to see this is to look at some numerical examples. In the matrices below you can see that the LHS = RHS for all values of m for x1, but LHS = RHS only for odd values of m for x2.
(The first column of a matrix below is m, the second is the LHS of your original equation, the third is the RHS)

Introduction
It is nowadays increasingly feasible to conduct genetic analyses in polyploid populations thanks to developments in genotyping technologies as well as tools designed to deal with these genotypes. polyqtlR is one such tool that provides a number of functions to perform quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping in F1 populations of outcrossing, heterozygous polyploid species. For more details on the methodology, please see the 2021 Bioinformatics publication of Bourke et al..
polyqtlR assumes that a number of prior steps have already been performed - in particular, that an integrated linkage map for the mapping population has been generated. The package has been developed to utilise the output of the mapping software polymapR, although any alternative mapping software that produces phased and integrated linkage maps could also be used. However, the input files may have to be altered in such cases. Currently, bi-allelic SNP markers are the expected raw genotypic data, which is also the data format used by polymapR in map construction. However, some functions can also accept probabilistic genotypic data, for example in the estimation of IBD probabilities. Full functionality of probabilistic genotypes in the package has yet to be implemented but is planned for future releases. The assignment of marker dosages in polyploid species can be achieved using a number of R packages such as fitPoly [1]. More background on the steps of dosage-calling and polyploid linkage mapping can be found in a review of the topic by Bourke et al. (2018) [2].
The QTL analysis functions primarily rely on identity-by-descent (IBD) probabilities, which are the probabilities of inheritance of particular combinations of parental haplotypes. Single-marker QTL detection methods are also available. The package was originally developed with the IBD output of TetraOrigin [3] in mind. However, the TetraOrigin package is only applicable to tetraploid datasets, and has been implemented in the proprietary software Mathematica. Therefore, alternative options to estimate IBD probabilities within R for multiple ploidy levels are offered in polyqtlR.
Genotyping errors are a regular feature of modern marker datasets. Although linkage mapping software such as polymapR has been shown to be relatively robust against genotyping errors [4], if present in sufficiently large proportions (~10 % errors or more) issues may arise with map accuracy and QTL detection. Therefore, a number of functions have been included in polyqtlR to check map accuracy using the estimated IBD probabilities, and to re-impute marker genotypes if required. These imputed genotypes may then be used in an iterative process to re-estimate the linkage map and re-run a QTL analysis.
This tutorial goes through each of the steps in a typical QTL analysis using the example datasets provided with the package, outlining the different options that are available. However, it is certainly recommended to consult the documentation that accompanies each of the functions by running the ? command before the function name (e.g. ?QTLscan).
Installing polyqtlR
polyqtlR can be installed using the following call from within R:
install.packages("polyqtlR")
There are a number of package dependencies which should be installed, e.g. Rcpp, foreach, or doParallel. Usually these will be automatically installed as well but if not, you can always install them yourself one by one, e.g.
install.packages("Rcpp")
install.packages("foreach")
install.packages("doParallel")
before re-trying the installation of polyqtlR. Eventually when all dependencies are on your computer, you should be able to successfully run the following command (i.e. without any error message):
library(polyqtlR)
It is also a good time to load the datasets that you will need to perform a typical analysis, namely a phased maplist, a set of SNP marker genotypes (discrete dosage scores) and a set of trait data (phenotypes):
data("phased_maplist.4x", "SNP_dosages.4x", "Phenotypes_4x")
In the example that follows we are using a simulated tetraploid dataset with 2 chromosomes for simplicity.
IBD probabilities
Currently two options to estimate IBD probabilities in an F1 population exist within polyqtlR. The first uses a heuristic approach originally developed for tetraploids but later applied to hexaploid populations [5, 6] and implemented here in the polyqtlR::estimate_IBD function. This can be very computationally efficient at higher ploidy levels (and has been generalised to all ploidy levels), but the algorithm ignores partially-informative marker information. In datasets with large numbers of haplotype-specific markers this is not such an issue, but in datasets with fewer such markers the accuracy of the resulting IBD probabilities is compromised. The method behind TetraOrigin [3] for offspring IBD probability estimation given a known parental marker phasing has also been replicated in the polyqtlR::estimate_IBD function (this is the default method used). Note that unlike the original TetraOrigin software, parental marker phasing is not re-estimated. However, this is usually a direct output of the linkage mapping procedure (e.g. using polymapR).
Data structures
As the IBD data are the most central objects in this package it is worth spending a moment describing them. In polyqtlR, IBD probabilities are organised in nested list form. The first level of structure are the linkage groups. In our example dataset, the list should have two elements corresponding to the two linkage groups, each of which is itself a list containing the following elements:
• IBDtype The type of IBD probability, either “genotypeIBD” or “haplotypeIBD”
• IBDarray A 3d array of IBD probabilities, with dimensions “locus”,“genotype class”, “individual”
• map The integrated linkage map (marker names and cM positions, in order)
• parental_phase The phasing of the markers in the parental map
• marginal.likelihoods A list of marginal likelihoods of different valencies if method “hmm” was used, otherwise NULL
• valency The predicted valency that maximised the marginal likelihood, per offspring. For method “heur”, NULL
• offspring The offspring names
• biv_dec Whether bivalents only (TRUE) or also multivalents were allowed (FALSE) in the procedure
• gap Here NULL, but later this can hold a numeric value (e.g. 1 cM) if IBDs are ‘splined’ or interpolated.
• genocodes Ordered list of genotype codes used to represent the different genotype classes
• pairing Log likelihoods of each of the different pairing scenarios considered
• ploidy The ploidy of parent 1
• ploidy2 The ploidy of parent 2
• method The method used, either “hmm” (Hidden Markov Model), “heur” (heuristic) or “hmm_TO” (Hidden Markov Model TetraOrigin)
• error The offspring error prior (eps) used in the calculation.
All functions within polyqtlR for estimating or importing IBD probabilities will automatically return them in this form.
HMM for IBD estimation
The estimate_IBD function of polyqtlR with the default setting method = "hmm" estimates offspring IBD probabilities using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) developed by Zheng et al [3] in the TetraOrigin package but generalised in polyqtlR to multiple ploidy levels. Currently, diploid (2x), triploid (3x = 4x $$\times$$ 2x), tetraploid (4x) and hexaploid (6x) populations are handled. genotypes can either be discrete (i.e. integer marker dosage scores), or probabilistic (i.e. the probabilities of each of the ploidy + 1 possible scores). For triploids, tetraploids and hexaploids, the possibility of incorporating double reduction [7] (i.e. allowing for the phenomenon of multivalent pairing) is available, although this can have serious performance implications for hexaploids (and in hexaploids, the option of allowing multivalent pairing in both parents for the same chromosome is by default disabled as it requires very high RAM requirements (> 32 Gb). Use argument full_multivalent_hexa = TRUE to allow multivalents simultaneously at the same position from both hexaploid parents).
Some of the code used to estimate these IBD probabilities has been programmed in C++ to improve performance, and relies on both the Rcpp and RcppArmadillo packages to provide the interface between R, C++ and the Armadillo C++ library.
The expected format of input files is that used by the mapping software polymapR [4]. If you have used other software for map construction and/or genotype calling, you will need to convert your input files to the correct format. There are already some tools available to do this (although it should be quite straightforward if you look at the expected format using the example data files provided here). For example, if you generated the phased linkage map using mappoly [8], you can convert your map to the required format using the convert_mappoly_to_phased.maplist function (check out the help using ?convert_mappoly_to_phased.maplist for details).
The genotypes can be either discrete or probabilistic. If the genotypes are discrete, they must be provided as a matrix of marker dosage scores (for example as provided in this tutorial in SNP_dosages.4x) with marker names as row-names, and individual names (including the two parents) as column-names. Checks are performed and non-numeric data is converted to numeric data if needed. Alternatively, probabilistic genotypes can be provided which can either be the direct output of the fitpoly [1] function saveMarkerModels, or from some other polyploid-appropriate genotype-calling software. For example, if polyRAD [9] or updog [10] were used for genotype calling, a conversion step is needed. Functions for doing this are provided by polymapR. Check out ?polymapR::convert_polyRAD or ?polymapR::convert_updog for details.
We run the function estimate_IBD using the phased linkage map phased_maplist.4x as generated by polymapR, in this case allowing for multivalents (bivalent_decoding = FALSE), as follows:
IBD_4x <- estimate_IBD(phased_maplist = phased_maplist.4x,
genotypes = SNP_dosages.4x,
ploidy = 4,
bivalent_decoding = FALSE,
ncores = 4)
Note that the default setting of bivalent_decoding is TRUE, as the function evaluates faster if only bivalents are considered (the difference in run-time becomes more pronounced for hexaploids). However, allowing multivalents in the model gives a more complete and correct picture.
Here we chose to enable parallel processing to speed up the calculations. Note that jobs are split across linkage groups, so with 5 linkage groups it would have made more sense to use 5 cores if they were available. Use parallel::detectCores() to display how many CPU cores are available, and use 1 or 2 less than this at the very most. In this dataset there are only 2 linkage groups, so no more than 2 cores are needed.
nc <- parallel::detectCores() - 1
Optional: Importing IBDs from TetraOrigin
If so desired, the original TetraOrigin package can be used to estimate IBD probabilities (again using a Hidden Markov Model) rather than using the estimate_IBD function. The results should be identical for tetraploids, while polyqtlR also offers the flexibility of handling multiple ploidy levels (2x, 3x, 4x and 6x).
TetraOrigin produces by default a large .txt output file after running the function “inferTetraOrigin”. However, it is convenient to produce a summary of this output using the “saveAsSummaryITO” function, which produces a .csv file summarising the results. Information on how to use TetraOrigin is provided with the package itself, downloadable from GitHub.
The function import_IBD imports the .csv output of TetraOrigin::saveAsSummaryITO. It takes a number of arguments, such as folder, which is the folder containing the output of TetraOrigin. For example, if we wanted to import IBDs from the folder “TetraOrigin” for a species with 5 linkage groups, we would run the following:
IBD_4x <- import_IBD(folder = "TetraOrigin",
bivalent_decoding = TRUE)
Here it is assumed that the TetraOrigin summary filenames are “TetraOrigin_Output_bivs_LinkageGroup1_Summary.csv” etc. If all goes well, the following messages will be printed per linkage group:
Importing map data under description inferTetraOrigin-Summary,Genetic map of biallelic markers
Importing parental phasing under description inferTetraOrigin-Summary,MAP of parental haplotypes
Importing IBD data under description inferTetraOrigin-Summary,Conditonal genotype probability
“Heuristic” method for IBD estimation
In cases where the results are needed quickly, or where there are very large numbers of markers, or for ploidy levels above 6, it is convenient to use the heuristic approach to IBD estimation. We do this using the estimate_IBD function as follows:
IBD_4x <- estimate_IBD(phased_maplist = phased_maplist.4x,
genotypes = SNP_dosages.4x,
method = "heur",
ploidy = 4)
Note that the attribute IBDtype is now haplotypeIBD, referring to the fact that these IBDs are the probabilities of inheriting each parental haplotype at a locus, as opposed to the probabilities of inheriting particular combinations of parental alleles at a locus (genotypeIBD). Although similar, certain downstream functions such as exploreQTL can only work with the former (although you will still be able to visualise QTL allele effects with the visualiseQTL function). The accuracy of these IBDs is generally lower than if method = "hmm" had been used (and therefore the power of subsequent QTL analyses will be somewhat reduced).
High marker densities
Particularly at higher ploidy levels (6x), it becomes computationally expensive to estimate IBDs using the hmm method. Our experience has shown that for hexaploids with a mapping population size of 400 or more individuals running on 4 cores, about 200 - 300 markers per chromosome can be accommodated on an “above-average” desktop computer (16 GB RAM). Running on a single core will reduce the committed memory, but the evaluation time will therefore be much longer. 250 markers per chromosome should be already enough to estimate IBDs with high accuracy - including extra markers over this amount will add incrementally less information (following the law of diminishing returns).
The function thinmap can be used to make a selection of markers that tries to maximise their distribution across the genome and across parental homologues. The argument bin_size is used to specify the size of the bins in which markers are selected - increasing this results in fewer markers being used. The ideal bin_size is 1 cM, although at higher ploidies and with higher marker densities, wider bins may be needed. The function is called as follows:
thinned_maplist.4x <- thinmap(maplist = phased_maplist.4x,
dosage_matrix = SNP_dosages.4x)
## 87 markers from a possible 93 on LG1 were included.
##
## 89 markers from a possible 93 on LG2 were included.
The object thinned_maplist.4x can then be used in place of phased_maplist.4x in a call to estimate_IBD.
Interpolating IBDs
Regardless of how they were generated, IBD probabilities are estimated at all marker positions provided. When we perform an initial scan for QTL, it is often more efficient to look for QTL at a grid of evenly-spaced positions (such as at every 1 cM). This is because the genotype data has been replaced with multi-point IBD estimates at the marker positions. Information at e.g. ten different markers within a 0.5 cM window is virtually identical and therefore just one representative for this locus should approximate the full information, while reducing the number of statistical tests. This becomes particularly relevant when we generate significance thresholds using permutation tests later, which are computationally quite demanding.
It is therefore recommended to interpolate the probabilities using the spline_IBD function as follows:
IBD_4x.spl <- spline_IBD(IBD_list = IBD_4x,
gap = 1) #grid at 1 cM spacing
Visualising IBD haplotypes
Before performing a QTL analysis, it is a good idea to visualise the IBD probabilities as these can give indications about the quality of the genotypes, the linkage maps and the parental marker phasing. The function visualiseHaplo was developed originally to examine the inherited haplotypes of offspring with extreme (usually favourable) trait scores to see whether their inherited alleles are consistent with a predicted QTL model (we return to this later). But as a first look at the data quality, the function is also useful.
Haplotypes of linkage group 1 of the first nine F1 offspring can be visualised as follows:
visualiseHaplo(IBD_list = IBD_4x,
display_by = "name",
select_offspring = colnames(SNP_dosages.4x)[3:11], #cols 1+2 are parents
multiplot = c(3,3)) #plot layout in 3x3 grid
Here the quality of the predicted haplotypes appears to be high - dark colours signifying high confidence (probabilities close to 1) and small numbers of recombinations predicted. Regions of dark red signify double reduction, which were permitted during the estimation of IBDs using estimate_IBD. In poorer-quality datasets, considerably more “noise” may be present, with less certainty about the correct configuration per offspring.
The function returns a list of 2 elements (recombinants and allele_fish) which do not concern us here but which we will return to later. Note that we selected the offspring to display using the select_offspring argument - using the option select_offspring = all will return the whole population. We have also opted to display_by = "name", as opposed to display_by = "phenotype", in which case further arguments are required. For convenience the plots were combined into a 3 x 3 grid using the multiplot argument. For more options, including how to overlay recombination events, see ?visualiseHaplo.
An example of IBD probabilities that show much higher levels of uncertainty might look something like the following:
Here, there are unrealistically-high numbers of recombinations predicted, suggesting that the algorithm had difficulty correctly assigning genotype classes. In such cases it may be worthwhile to re-examine the steps prior to IBD estimation, in particular genotype calling. We will return to this issue again later.
Genotypic Information
Another approach to assessing the quality of the IBD probabilities, as well as understanding the “QTL detection landscape” to some degree is to estimate the Genotypic Information Coefficient (GIC). The GIC is calculated per homologue across the whole population, and ranges from 0 (no information) to 1 (full information). To maximise QTL detection power and precision, we would like the GIC to be uniform and as high as possible [11]. Note that the GIC is only defined for bivalent pairing, and therefore estimates of GIC from a multivalent-aware HMM are based on offspring predicted to have come from a bivalent-based meiosis for that linkage group (this tends to be most of the population anyway).
We calculate the GIC as follows:
GIC_4x <- estimate_GIC(IBD_list = IBD_4x)
We can also visualise the output of this function as follows:
visualiseGIC(GIC_list = GIC_4x)

# Measurement of the ratio B(B[0,s] to J/psi f0(980) )/B(B[0,s] to J/psi phi(1020)) in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV
Abstract : The ratio R(f0/phi) of the branching fractions of the B[0,s] meson to the CP-odd eigenstate J/psi f0(980) and to J/psi phi(1020) is measured, where J/psi to mu+ mu-, f0 to pi+ pi-, and phi to K+ K-. The analysis is based on a data sample of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.3 inverse femtobarns. The result is R(f0/phi) = 0.140 +/- 0.013 +/- 0.018, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is consistent with theoretical predictions and previous measurements of R(f0/phi). It is the most precise measurement of the ratio to date.

New reductions of Gauss-Codazzi equations in three-dimensional Euclidean space to the sixth Painlev\'e equation
Date/Time: 15:10 04-Aug-2014
Abstract:
The Gauss-Codazzi equations govern the geometry of surfaces in R${}^n$.
In 1897, Hazzi\-dakis found a reduction to a codimension three P6 equation in the case $n=3$.
Our motivation is to find a reduction to the full (codimension zero) P6.
Since the Gauss-Codazzi equations are underdetermined (three equations in four unknowns), we first restrict them to a determined system and compute its Lie point symmetries.
This allows us to find three more reductions to P6, with respective codimensions three, two, two.

Notes
One method of selecting a linear regression model from a given set of independent variables is by forward selection. The following procedure is used:
1. Select the best fitting independent variable, i.e., the independent variable which gives the smallest residual sum of squares. If the -test for this variable is greater than a chosen critical value, , then include the variable in the model, else stop.
2. Find the independent variable that leads to the greatest reduction in the residual sum of squares when added to the current model.
3. If the -test for this variable is greater than a chosen critical value, , then include the variable in the model and go to (2), otherwise stop.
At any step the variables not in the model are known as the free terms.
linregm_fit_onestep allows you to specify some independent variables that must be in the model, these are known as forced variables.
The computational procedure involves the use of decompositions, the and the matrices being updated as each new variable is added to the model. In addition the matrix , where is the matrix of variables not included in the model, is updated.
linregm_fit_onestep computes one step of the forward selection procedure at a call. The results produced at each step may be printed or used as inputs to linregm_update(), in order to compute the regression coefficients for the model fitted at that step. Repeated calls to linregm_fit_onestep should be made until is indicated.

Let$r, s$∈ [0, 1], and let$X$be a Banach space satisfying the$M(r, s)$-inequality, that is, $$\parallel x^{***} \parallel \geqslant r\parallel \pi _X x^{***} \parallel + s\parallel x^{***} - \pi _X x^{***} \parallel for x^{***} \in X^{***} ,$$ where π_{$X$}is the canonical projection from$X$^{***}onto$X$^{*}. We show some examples of Banach spaces not containing$c$_{0}, having the point of continuity property and satisfying the above inequality for$r$not necessarily equal to one. On the other hand, we prove that a Banach space$X$satisfying the above inequality for$s$=1 admits an equivalent locally uniformly rotund norm whose dual norm is also locally uniformly rotund. If, in addition,$X$satisfies $$\mathop {\lim \sup }\limits_\alpha \parallel u^* + sx_\alpha ^* \parallel \leqslant \mathop {\lim \sup }\limits_\alpha \parallel v^* + x_\alpha ^* \parallel$$ whenever$u$^{*},$v$^{*}∈$X$^{*}with ‖$u$^{*}‖≤‖$v$^{*}‖ and ($x$_{α}^{*}) is a bounded weak^{*}null net in$X$^{*}, then$X$can be renormed to satisfy the,$M(r, 1)$and the$M(1, s)$-inequality such that$X$^{*}has the weak^{*}asymptotic-norming property I with respect to$B$_{$X$}.

# Enthusiast compositions of the Huygens images 16 january 2005
Since the images of the Cassini-Huygens probe -- descending to Titan (moon of Saturn) -- have been published on the net, the people in IRC channel #space on irc.freenode.net have processed these raw images into amateur compositions and mosaics, rendering an image of Titan. Note that, since we are enthusiasts and not professionals, we are not responsible for the correctness of these images. This page summarizes the initial enthusiast results (click the thumbnails for full sized versions).
For more recent, higher quality compositions, visit the web site of Rene Pascal. More enthusiast compositions are available from Daniel Crotty and Christian Waldvogel. NASA, ESA and JPL have more pictures of Titan, Saturn, and the Cassini-Huygens mission.
All images are copyrighted ESA, NASA, JPL, university of Arizona and their respective compositors. These images are here to give you an impression of Titan, and are not suited to be adopted as a scientific basis. Please mirror the images when you want to include them in your forum, blog, web page... We do not allow deep linking.
## Fully stitched panoramas
Christian Waldvogel created full panoramas of the Titan surface, one normal and a polar view. This submission is really awesome! (added Jan 15 2005 22:05 CET, colored version added Jan 16 2005 18:54)
Composite of a 360-degrees view during descent, using 11 of the raw images. the raw images were corrected in brightness, scale and perspective and then stitched together. Missing areas on dark bottom and sky were completed with two-color-gradients. No information was added. Colors in the colored version were adjusted according to the ESA/NASA's colored surface view.
Cartesian-to-polar-coordinate converted version of the composite panorama. This image shows a fish-eye-like 360 degrees view, as if the probe was looking downwards with a very wide lens.
There are numerous reports online of the correctness of the panoramas released by ESA/NASA, as can be seen for example here. I'm sure better panoramas will be published during the press conference ESA is giving on Friday morning.
René Pascal has been working on aligning the images, that make up the panoramas, correctly in order to make the most correct panorama to date. Make sure you have a look at his site, with all the information.
## Mosaics of views looking straight down
### Big mosaics
Jakub Friedl combined the mosaics from below to create a full map of the environment where Huygens landed. Currently, the mosaic lacks some details, and is not completely correct, but hints of what there is to come from ESA. The biggest problem in stitching the two mosaics from below together was the accumulation of errors when creating those two mosaics, which didn't allow them to fit in nicely. The current result is, however, very interesting, as it shows a lot of detail, and very differing lanscape terrain in each other's neighborhood. You may want to compare this mosaic with ESA's mosaic of the landscape) and find the differences. (added Jan 17 2005 04:32 CET)
Ricardo Nunes sent in a big mosaic (partly based on the images below) of the area where Huygens has landed (added Jan 16 2005 15:30 CET)
Daniel Crotty also created a big mosaic, and he's working toward connecting these two mosaics (added Jan 16 2005 16:52 CET)
Daniel also started fromscratch working on a more correct mosaic of the environment, creating a new mosaic which consists of 40 images
### River systems by the shoreline
Mosaics by Daniel Crotty of descent images, showing a shoreline and a strange delta or river system (it doesn't seem like a delta as the flow seems to go the other way). The pictures are taken from about 16 kilometers altitude. The smallest visible features have a size of about 40 meters. It is assumed that the dark region is a "sea" or "lake" of some kind, and the lighter surface is not. Howeverm we are currently not aware if there is any knowledge of the composition of either lighter and darker plains. (added Jan 15 2005 03:50 CET)
I have bumpmapped the image for clearer details: (the "craters" you might see are photographing artefacts that only seem to be craters) (added Jan 15 2005 04:32 CET)
Marco Papi created a rendering of the delta structure. (added Jan 16 2005 14:23 CET)
### Context of the river system
Context of the delta, also by Daniel (added Jan 15 2005 03:50 CET)
Rupert Scammell bump mapped the above image to better show the features. (added Jan 15 2005 04:08 CET)
### Detail and context combined
I have combined these two images into one, insetting the detailed into the context. (added Jan 15 2005 09:42 CET)
## Panoramic mosaic
Mosaic by Kevin Dawson, I have enhanced it for color/brightness (added Jan 15 2005 03:29 CET)
We are wondering about the "airstrip" on the left
The "airstrip" feature can be seen from pictures from above too, and shows how the "airstrip" is part of a river system (added Jan 16 2005 13:13 CET)
### Points of reference between panoramic and mosaics
Kevin found references between the mosaic and the panoramic view, as indicated by the following image (added Jan 15 2005 04:23 CET)
## Titan rendered
Mike Zawistowski has created a 3D rendering of Titan to provide us with an approximate rendering of what Titan might look like, based on the actual data, created with Terragen. Note that the coloring in the following image is a complete guess, the 3D terrain is based on the Titan data. (added Jan 16 2005 13:52 CET)
The following is a second attempt, with a better, more realistic color scheme (added Jan 17 2005 00:06 CET)
The viewpoint used in these images is given by the following image (added Jan 17 2005 00:06 CET)
The following rendering has a different viewpoint (added Jan 19 2004 22:32 CET)
## Stereo images
### Stereoptic
Kevin also noticed that some of the images have been taken within a short time interval. He has selected two images that you can use to view Titan in stereo. Look at the following image, but focus your eyes such that the images collide into a new, 3d image. You'll see that the dark mountain range in the middle of the image sits in front the of the other mountains behind it. (added Jan 15 2005 06:30 CET)
### 3D red/blue anaglyph
An anonymous submitter has sent in the following anaglyph, so you can view titan with red/blue glasses, in stereo: (added Jan 15 2005 10:46 CET)
## Animations
### Animation of images of the surface
This animated gif flicks through the images of the surface of Titan and contains some strange artefacts. Near the end of the loop a vague "blob" jumps into camera view. We can only guess at what it is. Maybe a rain drop. Or snow. Or it's an artefact of the compression algorithms used. Maybe the space agencies know what it is, and tell us at their press conference.
### Shockwave animation of the descent
How Huygens made the descent (.swf, animation), by Matthew Brock.
### How?
This work has been done by amateurs with no extensive scientific background, publishing the first images in under 8 hours. We'll have to wait for ESA/NASA/U of Az to deliver us the correct images, so please, take the resulting images on this page with a grain of salt (that was a disclaimer). We have shown, however, to be able to bring composited images online earlier than ESA/NASA/U of Az! It was an amazing night, these results have been gathered in about 8 hours time starting with the raw images and having no idea of what to expect, or what goals to reach.
The images that have been used are the same images that ESA/NASA/U of Az is using, and we expect that the resulting images created by the professionals will be more extensive than those on this page, but they will be based on the same quality raw images as used in the pictures below, so do not expect higher resolutions from ESA/NASA/U of Az.
The images have been taken with a 660nm-1000nm filter, with the DISR (Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer) experiment on board Huygens during descent and after touch down. No other information was available that could have been entered into the results below. ESA/NASA/U of Az can combine these results of various experiments.
Mosaics and compositions created by ESA/NASA/U of Az can be found here.
### Policy
We would all like to thank ESA, NASA, JPL and the University of Arizona for the organizing the Cassini-Huygens mission, for the engineering marvel that is the Huygens probe, and for sharing these wonderful pictures with the world. The source images are jointly copyrighted by these three institutions.
The images on this page are all copyrighted by ESA, NASA, JPL and the University of Arizona, and their respective creators. The compositions on this page are released into the public domain, and you are free to use them, as long as the respective owners' copyrights are inherited.
### ESA and open source
In an article of Der Spiegel Online, a spokesperson of ESA confirms that this publication of raw images, to allow open source editing and compositing, is part of a study by ESA to see if the publication of the raws is indeed a good strategy. NASA has been successfully publishing raw images of the MER project online, and ESA is now testing this "open culture" too. I have contacted the organizations for their stand point this topic, and as long as copyright notices of ESA/NASA/JPL/University of Arizona are kept, this work is legit.
### Credits
This list of images is compiled by Anthony Liekens, but credit is due where necessary. If you have more amateur images that should be posted or linked from here, send me an email at anthony@liekens.net.
### Press coverage
This page has been covered by a lot of (both alpha-geeky and mainstream) news media.
Scientific
Mainstream
Nerd/geek
## Source images
### Raw images
The raw images are now also available from the DISR product page
You can download a tar.gz file containing the raw images from Huygens here. (Note: these are all the images you could get, and this is also the best available resolution, scientists will have to do with these images, plus data acquired from other equipment, which we do not have for analysis)
### Split images
All images in the above archive appear in triplets. This zipfile created by Neil Halelamien contains all triplets but split up in seperate images, for easier handling.
### Contrast enhanced images

# Durbin-Watson (DW) test for autocorrelation (with R code)
## Durbin-Watson (DW) test
• Durbin-Watson (DW) test is used for analyzing the first-order autocorrelation (also known as serial correlation) in ordinary least square (OLS) regression analysis in time series dataset i.e. residuals are independent of one time to its prior time. First-order autocorrelation is a correlation between the successive (present and prior) residuals for the same variable.
• Durbin-Watson test is commonly used on time series dataset (e.g. events measured on different periods) as time series dataset tends to exhibit positive autocorrelation.
• The value of autocorrelation can range from -1 to 1, where -1 to 0 range represents negative autocorrelation whereas the range 0 to 1 represents positive autocorrelation.
## Durbin-Watson test Hypotheses and statistics
Durbin-Watson test analyzes the null hypothesis that residuals from the regression are not autocorrelated (autocorrelation coefficient, ρ = 0) versus the alternative hypothesis that residuals from the regression are positively autocorrelated (autocorrelation coefficient, ρ > 0)
Durbin-Watson test statistics d is given as,
Durbin-Watson test statistics (d) ranges from 0 to 4 and see following table for Durbin-Watson test statistic interpretation,
d Interpretation
d = 2 No autocorrelation (ρ = 0)
d < 2 (d = 0) positive autocorrelation (perfect positive autocorrelation i.e. ρ = +1)
d > 2 (d = 4 ) negative autocorrelation (perfect negative autocorrelation i.e. ρ = -1)
In practice, if the d is in between 1.5 and 2.5, it indicates there is no autocorrelation. If d < 1.5, it indicates positive autocorrelation, whereas if d > 2.5, it indicates negative autocorrelation.
The Durbin-Watson test p value depends on the Durbin-Watson statistic (d) value, the number of independent variables (k) in the regression, and the total number of observations (N).
In terms of Durbin-Watson critical values table, if d < lower critical value (dL), reject the null hypothesis, whereas if d > upper critical value (dU), fail to reject null hypothesis. The region between dL and dU is inconclusive.
If d < dL, indicates a significantly small p value (say p < 0.05) and implies substantial positive autocorrelation within the residuals. In contrast, if d > dU then p value is larger (say p > 0.05), we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that residuals are not autocorrelated. If d is substantially larger than 2, you should also test the hypothesis for negative autocorrelation.
## Perform Durbin-Watson test in R
We will use the tidyverse, stats, and lmtest R packages for this tutorial.
### Dataset
Suppose, we have a hypothetical time series dataset consisting of company stock price over a period of 12 months. You can import your dataset using read_csv() function available in tidyverse package.
# R version 4.1.2 (2021-11-01)
library(tidyverse)
# output
months stock_price
<dbl> <dbl>
1 1 122
2 2 129
Check out other ways to import CSV datasets in R
### Fit the regression model
Fit the regression model with months as independent variables and stock_price as the dependent variable,
library(stats)
model <- lm(formula = stock_price ~ months, data = df)
model
# output
Call:
lm(formula = stock_price ~ months, data = df)
Coefficients:
(Intercept) months
114.61 5.92
### Calculate Durbin-Watson (DW) test in R
We will use dwtest() function avialble in lmtest R package for performing the Durbin-Watson (DW) test. The dwtest() function takes the fitted regression model and returns DW test statistics (d) and p value.
library(lmtest)
dwtest(formula = model, alternative = "two.sided")
# output
Durbin-Watson test
data: model
DW = 2.5848, p-value = 0.4705
alternative hypothesis: true autocorrelation is not 0
In the Durbin-Watson critical values table, the critical region lies between 0.97 (dL) and 1.33 (dU) for N=12 at 5% significance. Since the Durbin-Watson test statistic (DW=2.58) is higher than 1.33 (DW > dU), we fail to reject the null hypothesis (p > 0.05) that there is no autocorrelation.
As the p value obtained from the Durbin-Watson test is not significant (d = 2.584, p = 0.470), we fail to reject the null hypothesis. Hence, we conclude that the residuals are not autocorrelated.

# Why is dipositive dilithium more stable than neutral dilithium? [closed]
According to J.D Lee, compounds with fraction bond number are unstable. I calculated that the bond order of $\ce{Li2^2+}$ is 0.5 while that of $\ce{Li2}$ is 1. Hence, $\ce{Li2^2+}$ must be less stable than $\ce{Li2}$ due to half bond character.
But, in reality, $\ce{Li2}$ is more stable than $\ce{Li2^2+}$. Why is it so?
• Your question makes no sense: "Hence Li2+ must be unstable than Li2 but then why Li2 is more stable than Li2+" says the same thing twice. What are you trying to ask? Jun 10 '18 at 6:31
• i m trying to ask why li2+ is more stable than li2? Jun 10 '18 at 6:34
• I suggest you edit your question to say that then. Further stable with respect to what? The dissociation products of the two molecules are different. Do you mean bond strength? I also suggest you think more carefully about the tags you use for your question, organic-chemistry, periodic-table and electronegativity are all totally irrelevant. Jun 10 '18 at 9:23
• Rafael, please don't rollback edits that attempt to improve your post. If you have some reasons to completely revert the changes, please also let the particular editor know that you're reverting their edits via the @ notification. Thanks. Jun 10 '18 at 14:17
• @GaurangTandon He's asking about bond order 1/2 so definitely not +2 charge. Jun 10 '18 at 19:11
The comment asks "Why is Li2+ more stable than Li2". Li2 has a relatively low bond energy (gas phase) of 27 kcal/mol (Cotton and Wilkinson, Inorganic Chemistry). The energy cost to make one mole of Li gas is 37 kcal (CRC Handbook). The ionization energy of Li is 5.39 eV = 124 kcal/mol.
So, breaking a Li2 gas molecule into 2 Li (gas) costs 27 kcal/mol.
Breaking a Li2+ gas molecule into Li + Li+ involves not the separation of two uncharged atom, but the separation of a very small Li+ ion from a Li atom which provides some charge accomodation. The heat of formation of Li+ in water is 66 kcal/mol (presumably from aquation with 4 waters); the hydration bonding is worth about (124 + 37 + 66)/4 = 54 kcal/mole each. So I would estimate the bond between Li+ and Li to be perhaps 40 kcal/mol, at least a significant fraction of 54 kcal/mol, and probably more than 27 kcal/mol.
The important point is that the unusually small size of the Li+ ion makes it able to polarize a neutral atom to form a strong bond (and come in closer!), whereas the neutral atoms have only uncharged molecular orbitals to spread their electrons over. It is highly unlikely that larger atoms (Na, K) would show similar stability for an ion-molecule compared to a neutral molecule. Magnesium might be a similar exception, however, since both Li and Mg have small radii; it might be interesting to compare stabilities of Mg2 and Mg2+.
Here you're saying that Li2+ is more unstable than Li2
Hence Li2+ must be unstable than Li2
And here you're confirming that Li2 is more stable than Li2+, corroborating with your previous statement
but then why Li2 is more stable than Li2+
But in your question you're saying the opposite, that Li2+ is more stable than Li2. So i'm confused with what you're trying to ask.
In my knowledge, based on inorganic text books, you can explain the stability of a molecule using molecular orbital theory (MOT). But MOT is a bond theory and Li2+ has no bond unless you're talking about (Li-Li)2+. If this is the case, Li2 is more stable than (Li-Li)2+ -(Li-Li)2+ is not even going to exist according with MOT - since the bond order for Li2 is 1 and (Li-Li)2+ is 0 as shown in the diagram below.
If you're trying to compare Li2+ and Li2 I don't know if it's possible, i've never seen something like that.
• He's probably asking about $\ce{Li2+}$. If you don't understand question then why to answer? (Rhetoric question) Jun 10 '18 at 19:09
• Someone commented a question about my answer and deleted after a while. I didn't see that the person deleted it. Jun 10 '18 at 19:18

## The Seckel Pear
I wrote about our pear trees a few years ago. At that time, if you check out the post (there’s a time-lapsed video of myself picking up pears), you will notice that the ground is more or less thick with pears. That year, we picked up (and composted) push-carts full of pears — hundreds of pounds. This year, it was a ho-hum year for fruit (and nuts) in general.
On the apple front, we are down to a single, mature apple tree. The crabapple tree next our house was taken down in the spring. The roofing company that redid our roof recommended that it be taken down as it was too close to the house and the roof. It was likely a great move. The heartwood of the trunk, about 12 inches above the ground was rotted and about half of the sapwood was intact; there were also many, many dead branches. The other apple tree to come down was the tree we had gathered apples from for the cyser last season. The heartwood on this tree was long gone and the entire weight of the tree was supported by the sapwood, which was beginning to give under the stress. That said, if the cyser turns out, and we do not have need to make 5 gallons of vinegar, it will be a sort of unique, never-to-be-produce-exactly-again beverage. The other apple tree that I gave little attention to, resided in the way-back woods behind our main yard. It was tucked along our property line, behind a buckthorn thicket. That tree died over the winter. With one, mature tree, we have had zero useable apples.
The walnut trees on the property had a crumby year, as well. Melissa is pleased that the dogs are not bringing in greasy-black bits of walnut husk, but it is sad to have not seen all the small green orbs growing over the course of the summer. I suspect that at the peak time when the catkins on the trees were just right for pollination, it rained heavily and for an extended period and washed the pollen into the ground. In fact, a quick survey of the neighborhood walnut trees also show no nuts. It will be a sparse winter for the squirrels; we will need to keep an eye on the chicken coop this winter for squirrels raiding the feed.
The cherry tree we planted the year after we moved into our house had a good year, a good for a tree just beginning to produce useable quantities of cherries. We also had no plums this year.
But, back to the pears. There was not a heavy load of pears on the two trees this year. The east-tree, which I have yet to identify the variety of, had an alright year. We have not had to pickup many, if any, of the fruit from the ground. The west-tree, which, as best as I can tell is a Seckel pear tree, produced a decent amount of fruit. About 82 pounds worth of fruit. With mead and cyser in carboys, we decided to branch out into the more fruit-based hard beverages and less honey-based. We’re going to tackle making a perry (pear cider) this winter. The 82 pounds of pears are currently taking up space in one of the freezers. There are still fruit on the tree; we’re hopeful to make the total an even 100 pounds before it is too late.
As I worked in the yard today, near the pear trees, I started thinking about the Seckel. I thought about curious size of the fruit – quite small. I thought about the particulars of this one tree – how old was it, who planted it, why was it planted in the location it resides in? On a short break from the work I was attending to in the yard, I searched the internet for history of the seckel pear. I knew that I would not find results on our Seckel, but I might find more information on the origins of the Seckel variety. The results returned included a few tree nurseries that carry Seckel trees – many of the nurseries’ online catalogs all have very similar text that spins the mysterious origins of the Seckel. Other results that were returned from the search included recipes that use pears as a primary ingredient in a dish. Amongst the results was an article from a horticultural and rural life journal from 1880. The Gardener’s Monthly and Horticulturist Devoted to Horticulture, Arboriculture and Rural Affairs, Volume XXII, 1880. The seckel is actually mentioned a number of times in this issue. There is, however, an entire article on the seckel; titled: THE OLD SECKEL PEAR.
There is a print of an engraving of the the old seckel pear tree in the journal — surprisingly, our pear tree has the same harrowed look, complete with droopy, arching downward-swept branches.
So, for the reader’s amusement and enjoyment, the following the article.
THE OLD SECKEL PEAR.
BY JAFET.
I had heard from a friend, of the old, original
accidental seedling, the parent stock of all of that
ilk extant, and the story gradually infected my
imagination. It began to haunt me. I saw it –”
” In my mind’s eye, Horatio,” –”
standing like a sentinel down there in ” The
Neck ” among the dikes and ditches ; living
through slow and patient history; watching
through its ” two hundred years,” so the story
goes, and listening to the hum and stir of distant
life in the Quaker metropolis, and the growing
traffic of the two rivers that washed the meadow’s
foot more than one hundred and fifty years from
this 31st day of July, 1880.
” More than one hundred and fifty years ago”
–”say the “Neckers” –” the first dike was thrown
up to reclaini the meadows on which they and
their fathers’ fiithers have lived and moved and
had their being; fighting the waves at spring tides,
and the rheumatiz’ nipre at their leisure ; but
never much troubled with a dry time, even
though there be but a fraction of an inch of rain-
fall in a month, or a whole dry summer never so
long.
It is a fat land down there, and has its bless-
ings and its drawbacks like other places. A
hardy race grows and thrives, and feeds others
out of the rich alluvial, but lays its bones away
on higher ground, for
And SO they lay them down at last, on green
and gravelly slopes, afiir from the music of the
singing birds of their household groves ; and so
their sons and sons’ sons have come and warmed
the old homes and kept the old names and man-
sions awhile in the meadows, and then followed
on to the narrow house in the higher ground.
But this is wandering from the old Pear tree.
That, I had some trouble to find, of which more
anon.
The ” facts” above stated, expressed more in
the local vernacular, I had from an old Necker,
who did not dream himself, but set his listener
dreaming.
Who munched the pear, and thoughtlessly
dropped the core over the side of what vessel, as
she passed the “Back Channel? And when?
It must have been between 1682 and 1720 ; for
that core floated to fast land, seeded and inaugu-
rated its celebrated distinct vai-iety far inside the
old dike that more than one hundred and fifty
years ago first barred back the waters from their
accustomed flats. May it not as likely have
been in the first named year as at any time
in the interval between that and the latter? For
what is thirty-eight years, more or less, in the
life of a pear tree, whose ” more than one hun-
dred and fifty years” have to-day been resolved
out of its indefinite past? And who shall say it
was not Penu himself, as likely as any of his
fellow-voyagers, –” or as those in the few following
years, –” who cast overboard the unconscious seed
of the land-mark of the two centuries then to
come?
Up to the day noted in the first paragraph, I
had never seen the object of my lately awakened
enthusiasm. Nothing would do until I could set
eyes on it, if yet standing ; and if not, alas what
My friend had described it as ” still standing
fifteen years ago, but with one-half decayed ofi”
the trunk, the balance a mere shell, supported
by props, and piously guarded with posts and
rails,” ready to fall and pass away forever. He
gave me a verbal notion of the direction and dis-
tance, relying more upon a reference for par-
ticulars to his description of his own visit
published long ago in the Gardener’s Monthly.
Neglecting this at the lime, I was not aware of
its more particular reference to exact locality.
His interesting article is well worth reading, and
will be found in vol. 7, page 44, Feb. 1865.
I had, therefore, a loose notion of the general
locality, comprising, perhaps, a couple of square
miles, anywhere within which it might be, and
over which I might have to roam vaguely and
guessingly. In that area there were, possibly,
many descendants of the old patriarch pear,
themselves aged; and one might risk being
sentimental over some decayed sample of several
generations later than the real, simon-pure-
great-great-grandfather of them all. My friend’s
verbal directions were months old, and, refracted
by my own unsafe keeping, were, as a guide,
about as reliable as young Launcelot’s directions
to Old Gobbo.
” Old Gobbo–” faster young gentleman, I pray yoa
which is the way to Master Jew’s?
Launcelot –” Turn up on your right hand, at the next
turning, but at the next turning of all, on your left;
–” marry, at the very next turning turn of no hand, but
turn down indirectly to the Jew’s house.”
Thus prepared (?) for the search, I started for
it overland, on the hottest day of this hottest of
Julys ; but was driven back by the heat, fotigue
and uncertainty of location, reinforced by grow-
ing lateness of the hour. So on the last day of
July I tried my second parallel, and attempted
to flank the position by water, taking the little
steamer at foot of Chestnut street, Schuylkill.
Making a demoralized landing at a rotten, half
burnt, plankless oil wharf, I reached land by
perilous gymnastics over the tops of bare wharf
piles, and formed again in good order. But a
Necker’s ” half mile” is a full mile and a half I
walked to and fro four miles, prospecting around,
and brought up* at a country hotel on the ” Old
don’t try my route, but take the one I found out
since. It is very simple. A stage from Peter
“Wright & Sons, 307 Walnut street, goes all the
way twice a day, passing this point ; fare 75 cts.
round trip. And so cut your eye teeth on my
experience. It is easier.
A busy ostler was sponging a critter at a
Jafet –” How long have you lived in these parts ?
Ostler –” Boy an’ man, all my life, –” some forty
year.
Jafet –” Then perhaps you know of a very old
pear tree somewhere in this region.
Ostler –” The old Seckel d’ye mean ! Know it?
Ish’d think I orter; many’s the pear I’ve had
ofl’n it too. D’ye see that lane right wher’ yer
standin’? That big yaller house down ther’s John
Bastian’s, and he has the old Seckel, if’t has’nt
blowed over. But stop, mister, tha’ don’t ripen
jist yit, if that’s wot yer goin’ fer.
To think I should reach Mecca in this unsenti-
mental way, and not on a cloud, or the back of
a camel !
I found Mr. Bastian sitting on his porch. He
received me very kindly, and directed me to the
identical spot. Sure enough, there stood the
ancient of days and its surroundings, ” the old
stone house, the sloping meadow and the ditch.”
Eureka !
The half trunk was a mere shell when Mr.
Bastian first knew it forty years ago, and he says
it was “much the same as now.” At least half
the circumference is gone. At 3 feet 6 inches
from the ground, it measures 5 feet 4 J inches
around the half trunk and across the exposed
diameter. The diameter, Irom bark to bark
is 23j inches. I estimate the full circumfer-
ence when whole and sound, as having been
at least 6 feet 6 inches, 3J feet from the ground.
The fraction of all that remains of the old storm-
beaten, ancestral Seckel Pear is 26 feet in height.
The old stone house must be one hundred and
fifty years old. It is of one storj” and attic, and
the walls are like a fort in thickness. Mr. Bas-
tian now lives in his more commodious mansion
near by on a rising ground. His son, who was
born in the old stone homestead, lives there now
with his family. There are many very old
homesteads all through the Neck. They are
perhaps, with the exception of the old Swedes
Church, among the oldest buildings remaining
in the city. Mr. Bastian has ‘owned the old
Seckel farm forty years. At the time he moved
there the late Thomas P. Cope told him that the
Seckel family had known the old tree for eighty
jears. Eighty plus forty makes one hundred
and twenty years to begin on. Perhaps some
earlier experience, going backward from the
year 1760, which this gives us, –” and so verify the
tradition of ” more than one hundred and fifty
years and perhaps two hundred.”

## Racine Hives
It had been too long since I last checked the hives in Racine, MN. I had intended to check them when we were down to butcher chickens, a few weeks ago in August. But, I forgot the varroa mite treatment in St. Paul. Besides, the butchering, albeit much faster than prior butcherings, took a chunk of the day. I did not want to consume more time, post-butchering, to check hives — and run the chance that I’d get stung and have a reaction; we had chickens to quarter and get into the freezer!
The drive, like the many, many times we have driven before, was uneventful. Hastings, Cannon Falls, Zumbrota, Pine Island, Oronoco – the river-towns of southeastern Minnesota – their signs clip by as we head south. It was somewhat early, and there was very light traffic. When I notice the speed limit had dropped to 60 miles per hour, I know that we are at Rochester. Past the Apache Mall; when the South Broadway Avenue exit sign can be seen, it’s time to change lanes to the right and take the exit. The Rochester International Airport, followed by Stewartville. The speed limit drops to 30 miles per hour within Stewartville, and picks up again upon exiting south of the city. I always chuckle to myself as we exit Stewartville, there is a 30 mile per hour marker, and less than 75 feet past it, there is a 55 mile per hour marker. I find the nearness of the two signs to be funny, I don’t know why. A few minutes down highway 63, Racine can be found.
Melissa commented, as we were entering the turn lane for Main Street, that her friend in Racine, said the fatal accident the day before resulted the intersection being closed for much of the morning. The heavy rain during the night had erased many of the signs of the accident from the road. Tire marks and a bit of spray paint on the pavement could be seen but even with the temporal proximity to the accident being just the previous day, the intersection felt normal. This was the second fatal accident at this intersection, this year. A left turn onto Main Street; a left a few avenues down and then a right into the driveway of the farm. Wingnut, one of the farm dogs, greets us. Her face is covered in mud, but she’s happy to see us. Mel and Buster, the two house bassets, soon can be heard barking at us through the kitchen door.
It rained off and on, on the drive down to the farm. As we pulled into the farm, it was now on, again; it was raining. Might as well take care of the business I needed to take care. Melissa grabbed her things from the car; she needed to say hello to her horse, Victor, and then walk puppies from the kennel. The puppies are not so puppy-ish anymore; they’re closer to being just very rubbery full sized creatures.
The other business to attended to was to return nuc boxes from the bees purchased in June from Cresco, Iowa. I could keep the nucs for $20 each, or return them. It’s only a 45 minute drive from Racine to Cresco, and it’s the edge of the driftless area of Minnesota and Iowa – the scenery is pleasant with rolling hills, rivers and creeks. If your mental image of farm country is that of neatly divided squares of 160 acre pieces of land with road on all four side, this is not that. The roads are more a series of swooping curves and short straight-aways than a grid-like system. The drive is a familiar path – this is the fourth trip to Linda and Manley’s, twice to pickup bees in early summers and, now, twice to return empty nuc boxes in late summer and early fall. It was raining when I pulled into their driveway; house on the right, a neatly kept garden on the left, trees. The house was dark; no one appeared to be home. I pulled up to Manley’s pole building. It was raining hard. The nuc boxes are fairly light, being made of corrugated plastic, if the wind picked up, they would likely get scattered about. Next to the pole building, perpendicular and to the right, was a shed with a car parked in front it. The car and shed might work as a windbreak. I left the nucs tucked behind and to the left of the car, and near the shed’s door. The rain stopped just north of Linda and Manley’s; dark clouds and lightning could be seen further to the northeast. After lunch, I set to work on checking the hives. We are down to just two hives in Racine; we started with four hives several years ago, the count peaked at six, and with winter kill and uncertain future plans for the continuation of hives on the hive, we arrived at two. One of the two hives has been mediocre at producing honey but has been stellar at overwintering, having successfully made it thru four winters. The first hive to tackle is one that contains bees purchased from Linda and Manley the previous year. Three honey boxes sit atop two brood boxes. The bottom brood box appeared to have been knocked off the hive base — likely by a lawn mower. The half-inch gap between the bottom box and the base makes for a nice exit and entrance for the bees; it also might be wide enough for a field mouse to squeeze in. As I waited for the smoker’s wood chips to catch fire, I got my protective jacket on. Even though there are only two hives, the late-season smell of golden rod nectar being turned into honey drifted across the wind. It’s a sweet, musky scent. I have heard the smell described as being like a gym locker. Maybe without adequate ventilation, a locker might smell a musty, but the scent of golden rod nectar turning into honey is nothing that I kind of like; it means that fall is on its way. I pulled the outer cover off, and gave the inner cover’s center opening a few puffs from the smoker. A quick pry with the hive tool, and the inner cover came off. A heavier stream of bees came out of the bottom gap; a few puffs of the smoker seemed to do the trick; calming and confusing them. The top honey box came loose from the one below with a bit of hive tool prying. The box was loaded with honey – all ten frames. I set it on cross-ways on the upside-down outer cover on the ground. The second honey box had ten nice frames of honey; it was stuck something-fierce to the box below it. A bit of prying and minimal movement, and the box came loose. I set it on top of the other honey box I had just removed. The third honey box was similarly cemented to the top brood box with propolis. The top brood box looked great. No burr comb, and without tearing heavily into it, no queen cells. Anecdotally, strong bee numbers. More smoke was puffed across the top brood box before I pried it off and set it onto of the reverse-ordered honey boxes. With the weight of a 100 or so pounds of honey, and the top brood box off of the bottom box, I was able to square it up on the hive bottom. The bees seemed to be getting a bit hot. Guard bees repeatedly flew into my face screen. More smoke across the top of the brood box on the hive base. I fiddled around getting the package of Hopguard II open. This particular product works best at the end of the season, after most of the larvae have emerged. Early September is likely a bit early, but I figured I would apply a treatment of it anyway. Four strips of Hopguard II to each brood box. The first strip went well. As I pulled the second strip out, the box resting on the hive base turned into a bee-volcano. Bees flew up and got tangled in the cuff of my jacket; I began to get stung through the cloth. Many puffs of the smoker, and I remaining calm, and I had four strips of Hopguard II in the one box. I moved a bit quicker with more purpose. I lifted the brood box that I had moved off, back onto the one that I had straightened on the base. More smoke. I rotated puffs of smoke and inserting Hopguard II strips. More smoke. Lots of smoke to clear out of the layer of bees so I could return the honey boxes atop. My wrist felt like it was on fire. With the hive of Manley’s Spicy Russian Bees reassembled, I moved onto the other hive. This turned out to be almost a non-event for the bees in this hive. A little smoke, moved the honey boxes and the top brood box away, inserted the Hopguard II strips, and reassembled the hive without incident. If you are curious about the efficacy of Hopguard II, there was an interesting study done that more or less concluded what I have anecdotally observed. The study is here. ## Araneus cavaticus As best as I can tell, we have a number of barn spiders (Araneus cavaticus) around the property here in St. Paul. We initially noticed them in the chicken yard. We had a snow rake’s handle hanging over the side entrance of the covered run, and one of the buggers made a web at least five feet high with support webbing running more than eight feet. The next barn spider showed up to the right of the main gate into the chicken yard; the web was smaller, but you could also easily find the spider, during the day, tucked behind the yellow “Chicken Crossing” sign. Since then, another one showed up at the front of the house, in front of the attached garage. Melissa wanted to name this one Charlotte, since the barn spider is the type of spider that Charlotte, of Charlotte’s Web was modeled after. ## North Carolina’s Outer Banks When I get the travel itch, I guess I scratch it hard. Where I am right now? I am in Nags Head, NC. The Wright Brothers National Memorial is just two and a half miles from the hotel. The Atlantic Ocean stretches out from the patio on our room. I am traveling, again, with my sister. Back in April, when I was in North Carolina, for a conference/symposium in Chapel Hill, I did the sane thing of visiting my sister and her husband – they live 3.1/2 hours from Chapel Hill – one way. During the time I spent with the two of them, my sister and I came up with the idea that at the end of the summer, the two of us should take a long weekend, and head to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The end of the summer would be the 2/3rd-point of her husband’s Navy deployment — it would be good to see family. As we rolled in the summer, plans firmed up, dates were set, and tickets were purchased. Monday of the week arrived, and it hit me – I was going to be traveling, again. Didn’t I already visit the Pacific Ocean and seven other states – with 6,000 miles of driving – just in the last two months? It’s cool, I would be flying to the North Carolina. And then driving 3.1/2 hours to Nags Head. For a second there, I thought I might not get to drive. The flight from Minneapolis to Charlotte, NC, was uneventful. I happen to get a seat in an otherwise empty row. Window seat, over the right wing. Coffee, a cookie, a quick snooze. The internet on the flight was not working, and I was unable to check the weather. Douglas-Charlotte (CLT), as the airport is known, is getting be known by myself. Like Haneda in Tokyo or LAX in California, I have passed through CLT enough times to begin to get the layout figured out in my head. Land at the D concourse, head to the E concourse – or the other way around. Earlier in the week, my boss had joked that I was feeling spunky when I made an off the cuff comment about the catering of an event on campus being garbage in a box. Maybe I was spunky. In Charlotte, at my departure gate, an announcement came over the intercom: We need three to five individuals willing to give up their seat New Bern; we’ll fly you into Jacksonville, NC; we’ll also give you a$300 voucher. Done.
I have always wanted to switch flights mid-trip. It’s nothing wild, it’s a change in plan, and I’d get \$300 – nearly enough to cover the cost of the tickets for this trip. Or, it’s essentially free tickets to venture back to North Carolina, once my sister’s son is born.
A quick call to my sister; sure, I can pick you up in the Jake. Great, that’s what I was hoping to hear. Voucher and new boarding pass obtained, I wandered to the gate the flight to Jacksonville, NC, would be leaving from. I wonder if my luggage will get forwarded to Jacksonville? Whatever. That’s what a credit card is for – I’d just buy a few new cloths and toiletries if it came to that.
As the pilot of the flight joked, we spent more time on the ground in Charlotte than we did in the air to Jacksonville. On the ground in Jacksonville, I quickly checked the airline’s Track Your Bag feature in their app; my luggage was in New Bern. I filed a report with Missing Baggage, and Meg and I would head back to her house; I was told at Missing Baggage that the luggage would need to be sent from New Bern back to Charlotte and from there, to Jacksonville. It might be on the 5:05pm flight; we’d swing by the airport once more before heading to the Outer Banks.
Before heading back to the airport, I picked up some cloths at a couple stores. At the airport, I was told that the luggage was on its way to Charlotte, and would eventually make its way to Jacksonville. We left instructions to have the luggage delivered to my sister’s house; we left for the Outer Banks.
We rolled into our hotel in Nags Head, after dark. We had picked up some groceries at a Harris Teeter we passed on the way to the hotel. A bit of cheese, some apples, and sourdough bread. There were two party buses parked in front of the hotel. A large number of people from, what I gathered was a wedding rehearsal dinner, poured out of the hotel and into the buses. Meg remarked that she never could figure out the appeal of party buses. Me neither.
I was tired. I had been up since about 3:00am Minnesota time; it was close to 11:00pm North Carolina time. The hotel was somewhat stuffy and the antihistamine I took shortly after arriving in our room was clearing my nose — and it was giving my brain and body the compelling argument that sleep was what was needed. I nodded off.
I awoke in the morning to the room flooded with bright light. The sun was up. Eight hours of sleep later, it was time to get up. Once up, we headed to Sam & Omie’s for breakfast.
We had looked up breakfast places before heading out – there was a tried and true institution of the South – Waffle House, in Kill Devil Hills, as well as Stack’em High Pancakes and So Forth; there, of course, are others and places like Duck Donuts.
Sam & Omie’s was busy to say the least. When we arrived, the place felt over capacity. There was a line just to get our name on the list to get a table. Waitresses kept asking us if we could move aside so they could get back to the kitchen. With our name on the list, we stepped out to the porch to wait.
The porch contained a slow, revolving cadre of other tourists. Very sunburnt tourists. There was a group of five from New Jersey, a family of four from somewhere south of the Mason Dixon – given their accent. The folks from New Jersey were called into the restaurant; their seats were quickly filled with more, sunburnt individuals.
“Jay? Is Jay out here,” the restaurant matriarch yelled. No Jay, she moved down the list. A couple more names, and she yelled out Meg’s name. We were in. She yelled out the general location of our table and waved her hand in the general direction of where it was located. To the right of the cash register, along the wall.
Meg ordered something with scrambled eggs and “lots of vegetables”; I ordered a flapjacks and coffee. I debated for a moment whether to go Carolina low-lands and order “breakfast shrimp” (shrimp and grits), but opted for a trusted favorite.
Breakfast was good – nothing spectacular, but it was tasty. Meg and I chitchatted as we ate – figuring out where to head next. Wright Brothers Memorial or Hatteras Lighthouse. We picked the lighthouse; it was a bit over an hour’s drive south along the outer banks. I drove.
We passed over bridges and drove passed sand dunes. Many, many cars and trucks seemed to be parked just off the road. Best as we could tell, these folks just park and walk over the dunes to the ocean side or the sound side. Many vehicles had fishing pole holders off the hitch receives; “Salt Life” bumper stickers on the tailgates. They were probably fishing.
We parked in the lighthouse parking lot, and stepped out of the vehicle. My glasses immediately fogged up when the air-conditioned-chilled lens met the hot, humid air outside.
We wandered into the gift shop. I have the long standing (9 years!) tradition of getting patches from the places that I visit. We were in business — the gift shop had a Cape Hatteras National Seashore patch.
To the Lighthouse!
Tickets purchased and the requisite notice of the temperature, humidity and heat index from a park ranger, and we started the walk to the lighthouse. There was a group of kids in front of us, when told about the weather conditions, replied, “It’s cool, the lighthouse has air conditioning, right?” No it does not.
The lighthouse is pretty much just a very tall structure that could be seen by shipping passing by. It’s the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States. It has no furnishings, but has a staircase that spirals up to the top.
Built in 1803, it marked one side of shoals that was to be avoided by seafarers. Just off of the shore, the warmer Gulf Stream from the south mixes and meets the colder Labrador Current churning the sand creating the shoals.
The structure now sits on a different spot from where it was originally built — it was moved in 1999, nearly half a mile.
It was hot and humid, was to be expected in the Carolinas, in August, on the coast. Mid-way up the lighthouse, there was a park ranger with defibrillator kit, just in case. The entire structure is 210 feet tall, but you’re not able to go to the very tippy top. A park ranger said it was roughly the equivalent of going up twelve flights of stairs. But, you know, there really is not a set definition of the length of a flight.
Getting up to the top was a workout – particularly in the heat and humidity. But, there was a breeze at the top, and the view was spectacular. A slight haze could be seen out at the end of the horizon. Looking out the east, you can see the second light station that was built in 1868 – now under private ownership – just at the edge of the horizon.
Going down the lighthouse steps was much easier than going up. We headed back to the vehicle, got in, cranked the A/C and headed north – back to Nags Head.
## Wooden Bench
It might not be apparent that between my random musings about slingshot-roadtrips, snow-wanderings, and the occasion piece on chickens or bees, I sometimes build things. Many times, it chicken-related. The chicken coop is a sort of ongoing project. There is no master plan for the coop (similar to the Winchester Mansion not having a master plan). When there is a new – be higher fence panels, or the addition of an infirmary-coop for injured birds, it gets added on to.
Generally, though, the common thread for building things is a perceived need. Around 2004, I got stuck in my head that I needed to make a Mission-style oak bed frame. So, I did (more pictures here, and here). It’s still the bed frame that we have in our bedroom. Other things are simpler – like a solar wax melter I built when I was first interested in keeping bees. I still use it. There was also the shed at our old house, the chicken coop at our old house, and many other projects including an excessively expensive and complicated walnut and cherry desk that worked on, off and on, for nearly two years; it sits in our home office now, Melissa uses when she works from home.
Early in my double-digit-age-days, I had, what some artists might call a period. Picasso’s early period was his blue period. My early period was a clock period. Some how or another, I got my hands a Klockit mail order clock catalog. I kind of went nuts making wooden clocks. To this day, there is clock that I made in nearly every room of my parents’ home.
Somewhere in the late aughts, I found myself with a excess supply of 4″x4″x8′ green treated timbers, and a couple 6’x8′ panels of dogeared fencing. There must have been a woodworking muse or the like that whispered in my ear, make a garden bench; ok, it was probably Melissa. The aesthetics that I like tend to be clean lines, angles that divide 90 degrees without a remainder (90 modulo angle = 0), and in some cases, parallel piece that have touching surfaces follow the golden ratio (this was the case with the top for the desk). With the benches, there was also the idea of minimizing wood waste. Three pickets where used for the seat area, shallow, compound angled legs, and an underskirt. The picture to the left is of the original timber bench I made for Melissa. It currently resides in our backyard, under a walnut tree. Notice the underskirt that the legs fasten into – it’s square. In later iterations of the timber bench, the underskirt had a bevel that was the same angle as the legs, just the slope was opposite direction of the legs. We have one these beveled underskirt benches on the familial land in northern Minnesota. My mother has a pair of three feet wide benches, and I also made an identical pair of these benches (dubbed meditation benches) for a woman in Hibbing.
And then, I ran out of fence panels. I moved onto the next woodworking project or went back to working on the house. I cannot remember.
Then, a few weeks ago, the bench-muse returned. Melissa asked me if I could make a bench for a section of the patio she has been gussying up. Sure. I finally had a bit of time this weekend; I headed to a big-box lumber store and picked up a few things. Below is a photo gallery of what I made.
If by chance, you, the reader are interested having one of these short, stocky benches of your own, and you are somewhere in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro, Duluth, Rochester, or the Iron Range (Grand Rapids to Virginia) — hit me up in the comments on this page, or check out the About Me page on contacting me. A bench won’t be free, but we can likely work something out.
## World’s Tallest Salesman
Towner, Rugby, Minot. Where was I going? Some where in north central North Dakota, that’s about all I really needed to know. The trip was four months away. It was early April, and I was in North Carolina, in the Triangle, for work, but had managed a side-trip to visit my sister and her husband on the coast, near Jacksonville.
My brother-in-law’s grandfather was to turn ninety years old in August. Due to circumstances outside of his control, my brother-in-law would be unable to attend the birthday. My sister, on the other hand, intended to attend the festivities. She loves the grandparents. I, too, would be attending the birthday party. Who was going to be at this party, again? I think I met the grandparents – once – at Meg & Bruce’s graduation.
I’m not entirely sure who initiated the conversation. Myself, volunteering to attending the event, or my sister asking me to attend. Maybe somewhere in the fuzzy middle. Maybe there was not really an ask whether Meghann would want me to go with her, and maybe there was not really me making an explicit volunteering. I honestly cannot remember.
Where did I just say I would go in early August, was it Towner or Rugby?
Plans firmed up somewhere in early summer. Meghann would fly from Raleigh, NC, to Bismarck, ND. I would drive to Bismarck, and we would then drive to…where were we driving to, again? Two or three hours north of Bismarck, maybe. Near the Canadian border? Close to the border?
August seemed to have arrived, as did the trip. Shortly after noon, I was on the road. Didn’t I just drive through Bismarck, less than a month ago? Yes, yes, I did.
I tend to have, what I consider to be a minimal needs plan. An MNP is something that has the least number of steps required to have an event be successful. It is something akin to the Minimally Viable Product of software development and project management. It is not that I am against details and minutia,. When I am driving, there usually is little need for me to do things like plan my exact stops for fuel or food, or even figure out the the fastest route between points A and B. Beverages and food get packed in a cooler in the car, the car tells me when is likely going to be in need of fuel, and Google Maps finds me a decent route. All I really need to think about, and it is often a brief thought, is when do I need to leave, to be at the place I need to be at?
12:00pm on Friday, August 5th, is the answer to that last question. Basically, I needed to be to the Bismarck, ND, airport by 7:00pm. It’s a 6.1/2 hour drive with 30 minutes built in for fuel and bathroom breaks. Five miles over the speed-limit; I would get there with a nice cushion of time. A couple cold Bragg’s vinegar+juice drinks in the cooler, a few snacks, and Gareth Emery‘s album, Drive: Refueled, on my phone, I headed out. The track, Long Way Homeseemed fitting; I pressed play and headed westward.
Meghann and I pulled into the driveway of her brother-in-law’s house in Bismarck, close to 7:20pm – Meg’s flight had been slightly delayed. Her brother-in-law had nicely offered us a couple rooms at his house for us for the night. I still really did not have a clear picture where we were going to be driving to the next day. North. Towner, maybe Rugby. Why were staying at this house? It was an incredibly nice gesture, allowing us to stay at his house. Sleeping on an air mattress felt very early-twenties-college-esque.
I was the first to wake in the house. Other guests had also showed up later in the night. Meg’s brother-in-law forgot that he had also told some friends from out of town that they could stay at his house. It really did feel like I was back in a shared-college-house. I ducked out for coffee and returned to find the house still a sleep.
Once Meg was up and called some of her in-laws who had a better idea of where things were going to take place and when, we knew we had the morning the kill in Bismarck. After breakfast we headed to the capitol grounds for a walk – Bismarck’s annual Capital A’fair arts & crafts festival was taking place.
After enough wandering, we headed out. Meg was on the phone a bit with her in-laws. Two aunts might be in Garrison. We headed to Garrison.
Miscommunication. The aunts were going to be Minot. We were in Garrison when we found this out.
Garrison, North Dakota, is a small town. A small upper midwestern town. Like many upper midwestern towns with water supporting fish, fish that tourists like to catch & eat — the town has a large fish statue. Garrison is located just north of the east end of Lake Sakakawea. Other upper midwest towns that one could happen upon a giant fish statue include Bena, MN – they are home to a diner shaped like a muskellunge, or the fiberglass walleye in Kabetogama, MN, or, not to be outdone, Garrison, MN, also has a large walleye statue similar to its neighboring state’s Garrison. Most places that have waters that contain walleye fish, will also have signage and statues proclaiming that place to be The Walleye Capital of the World. Not to leave Wisconsin out, in Hayward is home to the North American Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame. A giant muskellunge statue can be found there.
We headed to Minot to meet the aunts at a McDonalds for coffee. Driving to Minot, I kept thinking of a book that I had read a long while ago, Big Mutt, by John Reese. It takes place in the North Dakota bad lands – which were just to the west of where we were driving. The book has nothing to do with visiting family in North Dakota. It’s just one of those odd memories that gets triggered periodically by place.
The aunts recalled meeting me at Meg & Bruce’s graduation – years ago. I probably did meet them, but that graduation was a month prior to one of those hard turns in life – our father having a stroke. It is like when I think of around Thanksgiving 2014. I immediately think of our grandmother, Clarice, passing away. However, two days prior to Clarice’s passing, I was best man in a wedding; that fact rarely crosses my mind. Those perceived larger events tend to over shadow those seemingly smaller ones. I’m sure I met the aunts, they remembered me. They gave Meg some old family photos; gave each of us a hug, and we were on our way.
Towner. That was where we were going. The festivities were in Towner, ND.
A family, in general, is odd to an outsider. It might even be weird. There is nothing wrong with this. Every family has that relative, maybe it’s a cousin, or a cousin’s spouse that gets talked about in hushed tones. You know what went on with them, but you still act like you are ignorant. Maybe there is an uncle who hugs just a few seconds too long. Every family has these characters. Some characters are just perceived to be stranger or weirder by outsiders than other characters in the family. Every family is a bit of a community, even if the members of this community are scattered around the country. The birthday party went off without a fuss. Meg and I, not being much of meat eaters, managed to eek out a meal of pasta salad (we eat around the pepperoni), potato chips, and mixed fruit. Many tributes were raised to the birthday boy; he is much loved within the family.
I am not sure how long we were actually in Towner. When a few people left, Meg took the cue that it was time to head to Rugby – the nearest town with a hotel. Rugby is a twenty minute drive east from Towner. When we pulled into the hotel’s parking lot, the sun was still hanging a bit above the western horizon. We were in the hotel for a short time. At 8:30pm, I ran to a store in town to pick something up for Meg. That was about the first time all afternoon and into the evening that I actually knew the current time; the store closed at 9:00pm, but it was just across the road.
The next day, Sunday, we had a small window of time to get in some small town attractions. Rugby claims to be “The Geographic Center of North America.” I immediately started to wonder how this was determined. Was a map used? What was the projection of the map? Would the center be different if the projection was Albers Equal-Area Conic Projection versus Robinson Projection? What is different with this center from the Geographic Center of the Nation, in Belle Fourche, South Dakota?
In addition to the Center monument, which just happens to be in the parking lot of a souvenir shop, Rugby has the World’s Tallest Salesman Exhibit. It was closed, because it was Sunday and still early in the day.
I started to think about these road side attractions as we drove out of Rugby. Next stop: Silva, ND. Yup, another road side attraction. This time, it was a bank vault in a pasture. You see, Silva, ND is a ghost town. There are a few buildings remaining of the what used to be the town. Down a dirt road for a few miles, a left down another dirt road, and we had arrived. Before leaving the hotel, I had read about Silva. It was originally home to Cliff Thompson, the World’s Tallest Salesman. As it turned out, Cliff only lived in Silva until he was seven years old. He eventually ended up in Portland, Oregon where he practiced law, presumably as World’s Tallest Lawyer. Like many small towns, a certain segment of that town’s populace build a cottage industry around the hometown hero who, often, has moved on from that town. Some towns’ heroes have long passed away, like Cliff Thompson, who died in 1955. Other town heroes are still around – like Bob Dylan – who is claimed by my hometown of Hibbing, MN. Small towns are like families, a bit weird to outsiders, but perfectly normal to those that reside within them.
Back to Bismarck where I dropped Meg off at the airport. With Long Way Home streaming from my phone to the car’s stereo, I headed home. I stopped at two more small town attractions, both fitting into the same category of World’s Largest of certain types of bird. In Steele, ND, you can find the World’s Largest Sandhill Crane. And, in Rothsay, MN, you can find the World’s Largest “Booming” Prairie Chicken. Sadly, the prairie chicken statue does not “boom.”
Small towns and families are weird, but, hell, you cannot help but love both of them.
## Lure of the Road (Part 3)
#### Continuation of Lure of the Road (Parts 1 and Parts 2)
The rest of southern Idaho, Wyoming, South Dakota, and part of Minnesota lay in front of me. One more night in a hotel – somewhere western South Dakota, two more days of driving.
A significant part of the remaining was high desert and shrubland.
I really did not meet anymore characters along the way. Outside of Idaho Falls, I turned off the interstate and took US Highway 20. Near Sugar City, it was a right Idaho 33 – heading east.
The altitude as I approached the Tetons began to creep up.
Forest fires near Jackson Hole, Wyoming, made the air smell like the old days at the cabin my family used to caretake.
The valley the Snake River flows through and the greater National Park of Grand Teton was teaming with traffic and tourists. Some, quickly pulling over to get a photo of an elk or snow covered peak of Grand Teton. The elevation, the way that the Snake River bisects the region, even the peaks of the mountain struck me as being like that of another park I had visited a few years ago: Tombstone Territorial Park in Yukon Territory. Tombstone, though, was Alpine and tundra terrain without another human for miles and miles and quite cold – snow was still on the ground. Grand Teton National Park was quite warm, teaming with people, and hazy from the nearby forest fires.
Out of the mountains and back into high desert and shrubland. The remainder of Wyoming was mostly two lane highway – much like Montana 200.
A stopover in Sturgis, South Dakota for the night, and I was home early evening the next day.

Yes but there are four possible constructions- two when externally tangent two when internally tangent.[Maybe!]
For each of which there are cases when $\omega$ touches $AB,AC$ on segments or on extensions.
So to avoid complications I would recommend using directed lenghs.
Since no one posted a solution, here's a little hint to shed some light:
Let $A$ be a point on $\odot \alpha$. A circle $\beta$ is tangent (internally or externally) to $\alpha$ with tangency point $B$. Let $\ell$ be the length of the tangent from $A$ to $\beta$. Let the radius of $\alpha,\beta$ be $R,r$ respectively. Prove that $AB=\ell.\sqrt{\frac{R}{R \pm r}}$[The sign is negative when internally tangent and positive when externally tangent.]
Use the hint, the fact whether $K,\omega$ are externally or internally tangent or whether $\omega$ touches $AB,AC$ on segments or extension won't matter.

SANZEED wrote:For Problem 2
Let us denote the statement with $P(m,n)$. Now,
$P(1,1)\Rightarrow 2f(1)|2\Rightarrow f(1)=1$ since $f(m)\in \mathbb N$
Let $p$ be a prime.
$P(p-1,1)\Rightarrow f(p-1)+f(1)|p-1+1=p$. Since $f(p-1)1>1$ we must have $f(p-1)=p-1$.
Now, $f(p-1)+f(n)|p-1+n\Rightarrow (p-1+f(n))|(p-1+f(n))+(n-f(n))$.
So, $(p-1+f(n))|(n-f(n))$.
If we fix $n$ now then we can take arbitrarily large value of $p$, such that $p-1+f(n)>n-f(n)$. Still $(p-1+f(n))$ will divide $(n-f(n))$
so we must have $n-f(n)=0$ i.e. $f(n)=n\forall n\in \mathbb N$ which is indeed a solution.
Good job.
It was a problem from Iran.

I think it's time for a new problem.
Problem 5:
If $a^p-b^p$ is an integer for every prime $p$ and rational $a,b$ then $a,b$ is integer.
This is a modified version of a recent AoPS problem.

@Tahmid vai, by "source", I meant where you have seen the problem. It can be a book with page number or a link. It can be useful when someone is personally interested in a problem and look for further information. So please give a link to problem 4. Moderators, please include this in the rules.

I had solved the AoPS version in the IMO camp, anyway.
Solution:(You should have mentioned $a\neq b$)
Let $a=m/n, b=x/y$ where $m,x\in \mathbb Z$, $n,y\in \mathbb N$ and $(m,n)=(x,y)=1$
So $a^p-b^p=\displaystyle \frac {(my)^p-(nx)^p}{(ny)^p}\Rightarrow n|my\Rightarrow n|y$ and similarly $y|n$. So $n=y$.
Now re-write $a^p-b^p=\displaystyle \frac {m^p-x^p}{n^p}$
Let $q$ be any prime such that $q|n$. So Fermat's little theorem asserts $q|m-x.....(i)$
Let $n^r||m-x$
Take a very large prime $w$ such that $w>n^{101r}$.
$m^w-x^w=(m-x)(m^{w-1}+m^{w-2}x+...+x^{w-1})\equiv (m-x)(m^{w-1}+m^{w-2}\times m$ $+...+m^{w-1}) =(m-x)wm^{w-1}\equiv m-x(\bmod \; q)$
So $v_q(m^w-x^w)=v_q(m-x)<v_q(n^w)$
A contradiction. So $n|m$ and $n|x$.

Not really. The exponent is not $q$, it's $p$. So it does not follow from Fermat's theorem, at least not directly. Also you didn't say anything about $\gcd(m,x)$. A lot depends on this gcd. You can't conclude anything about the exponent of $q$ in $m^w-x^w$ without saying $\gcd(m,x)=1$. This point is not much important. But the first one is important. Fix that.

Why? Can't I skip that part in such a forum? Since $q|n$, we have $q|m^q-x^q$ and $(m,n)=(x,n)=1$, So $m^q\equiv m(\bmod \; q)$ and $x^q\equiv x(\bmod \; q)$. So $0\equiv m^q-x^q\equiv m-x(\bmod \; q)$.

### Re: IMO Marathon
OW, not so fast. The expression is $q|m^p-x^p$, not $q|m^q-x^q$. So I actually find that a bit confusing. I think you need to deal with this in this way:
Let $e$ be the smallest positive integer such that $m^e\equiv x^e\pmod q$. Then we have $e|p$ for all prime, giving $e=1$. And the fact is it is not actually obvious that $\gcd(m,x)=1$ if you understand. So it would be rather considered as a common mistake if you didn't prove it. The fact if even if $\gcd(m,x)=g$, we can't have $q|g$ for the sake of $\gcd(m,n)=1$. So that $g$ won't matter.
What I meant is, these two facts weren't obvious, rather you might make a mistake like $a|bc,\gcd(b,c)=1\Longrightarrow a|b$ or $a|c$. So I had to make sure. The part wasn't about skipping in this forum.

• Abstract
This paper studies a deconvolved Chebyshev beamforming (Dcv-Che-BF) method. Compared with other deconvolution beamforming methods, Dcv-Che-BF can preset sidelobe levels according to the actual situation, which can achieve higher resolution performance. However, the performance of Dcv-Che-BF was not necessarily better with a lower preset sidelobe level in the presence of noise. Instead, it was much better when the preset side lobe level matched the signal to noise ratio of the signal. The performance of the Dcv-Che-BF method with different preset sidelobe levels was analyzed using simulation. The Dcv-Che-BF method achieved a lower sidelobe level and better resolution capability when the preset sidelobe level was slightly greater than the noise background level. To validate the feasibility and performance of the proposed method, computer simulations and sea trials were analyzed. The results show that the Dcv-Che-BF method is a robust high-resolution beamforming method that can achieve a narrow mainlobe and low sidelobe.
Article Highlights
• The beamforming characteristics of Chebyshev deconvolution are studied. Compared with other deconvolution beamforming methods, Dcv-Che-BF can preset sidelobe levels according to the actual situation, which can achieve higher resolution and lower sidelobe level performance.
• The effect of SNR and preset sidelobe ratio on the performance of Dcv-Che-BF is analyzed. The results suggest that the performance is not better under the condition of lower preset sidelobe level. The Dcv-Che-BF method only achieves a lower sidelobe level and better resolution capability when the preset sidelobe level is slightly greater than the noise background level.
• With the rapid development of array signal processing technologies, beamforming, a key technology of array signal processing, plays a vital role in underwater acoustic engineering. Among the beamforming algorithms, the conventional beamforming (CBF) algorithm has been widely used in underwater acoustic signal processing because of its robustness (Zhong et al. 2016). However, because of its limitation in array apertures, the performance of the CBF algorithm in practical applications is not ideal. The sidelobe of strong targets easily covers weak targets, especially when detecting weak targets under strong interference, because CBF has a high sidelobe and low resolution.
T. C. Yang creatively applied the deconvolution model to a CBF algorithm and proposed a CBF deconvolution beamforming processing algorithm (Yang 2017; Yang 2018). The algorithm retains the advantages of the CBF robustness and ensures the resolution is similar to or better than the high-resolution algorithms (Bahr and Cattafesta 2012). In recent years, scholars have conducted research on deconvolution beamforming processing technology. The research was mainly directed toward the application of a deconvolution beamforming algorithm based on an equidistant acoustic-pressure array (Xenaki et al. 2010; Xenaki et al. 2012), uniform circular array (Tiana-Roig and Jacobsen 2013), vector array (Sun et al. 2019), and deconvolution beamforming algorithms with a space-time two-dimensional joint and near-field space two-dimensional (Mei et al. 2020). As a result, the deconvolution beamforming technology advantages of low sidelobe, high resolution, and robustness have been identified.
Inspired by the CBF deconvolution beamforming algorithm, this paper studied a deconvolved Chebyshev beamforming (Dcv-Che-BF) algorithm. Chebyshev beamforming also has robustness because of the use of amplitude weighting (Li et al. 2010; Liu et al. 2018). Compared with the CBF algorithm, the Chebyshev algorithm can obtain the narrowest mainlobe width height under the condition of a given sidelobe level (Li and Liu 2005). Therefore, the Chebyshev algorithm can effectively avoid the situation when the sidelobe level is too high to distinguish the weak signal in the process of multi-target recognition. However, the resolution of Chebyshev beamforming is limited, and it is weaker than that of the CBF algorithm, especially when the preset sidelobe level is low.
This paper combines the low sidelobe characteristics of Chebyshev beamforming with the high-resolution processing ability of deconvolution beamforming. The performance of CBF, Chebyshev beamforming, minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR), CBF deconvolution beamforming, and Dcv-Che-BF were analyzed by simulation and sea trials using a uniform linear array model. DcvChe-BF retains a performance similar to the CBF deconvolution beamforming algorithm and has a better azimuth resolution.
Conventional beamforming is used to compensate for the opposite time delay of the signals received by each array element. The output of each array element is superimposed to realize the in-phase addition of the expected signals of each array element and the non-in-phase addition of noise and interference to improve the output signal to noise ratio (SNR). In this study, it is assumed that under the far-field condition, the receiving array with the number of array elements N performs direction finding. The received data of each array element is processed by beamforming. The beam output results are as follows:
$$\boldsymbol{Y}(t)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^N w_n(\theta) x_n(t)=\boldsymbol{W}^H(\theta) \boldsymbol{X}(t)$$ (1)
where Y(t)=[y1(t), ⋯ yN(t)]H is expressed as the output result of array beamforming, W(θ)=[w1(θ), ⋯ wN(θ)] is the beamforming weight vector, which represents the weighted value of the beamformer on the data received by different array elements, and X(t)=[x1(t), ⋯ xN(t)]H is expressed as the signal received by the array. θ is the angle pointed by the beam pattern, and the spatial spectrum of direction θ beam output can be expressed by beam output power as follows:
\begin{aligned} \boldsymbol{P}(\theta) &=E\left[|\boldsymbol{Y}(t)|^2\right] \\ &=\boldsymbol{W}^H(\theta) E\left[\boldsymbol{X}(t) \boldsymbol{X}^{\mathrm{H}}(t)\right] \boldsymbol{W}(\theta) \\ &=\boldsymbol{W}^H(\theta) \boldsymbol{R}_x \boldsymbol{W}(\theta) \end{aligned} (2)
where RX=E[X(t)X(t)H] represents the covariance matrix of the array received signal, the matrix dimension is N × N, and E[•] is the mathematical expectation. Changing the weight vector W(θ) can change the beam output of the array such that the core of different beamformers is to solve the weight vector W(θ).
The Chebyshev beamforming algorithm mainly relies on the properties of the Chebyshev polynomial. The expansion of the Chebyshev polynomial is used to define the weight vector Wq(θ) to achieve an equal sidelobe level under the condition of setting the mainload to sidelobe ratio. The Chebyshev polynomial (Zielinski 1986) is the solution of the differential equation as follows:
$\left(1-x^2\right) \frac{\mathrm{d}^2 T_n(x)}{\mathrm{d} x^2}-x \frac{\mathrm{d} T_n(x)}{\mathrm{d} x}+n^2 T_n(x)=0$, and its n-order polynomial is expressed as
$$T_n(x)= \begin{cases}\cos \left(n \cos ^{-1} x\right) & |x| \leqslant 1 \\ \operatorname{ch}\left(n \operatorname{ch}^{-1} x\right) & |x|>1\end{cases}$$ (3)
By combining the trigonometric function identity with the Chebyshev function, the Chebyshev polynomial can be obtained to meet the following recurrence relationship:
$$\begin{cases}T_0(x)=1, T_1(x)=x & n=0, 1 \\ T_n(x)=2 x T_{n-1}(x)-T_{n-2}(x) & n \geqslant 2\end{cases}$$ (4)
Considering an N-element linear array with equal spacing distribution, the ideal beam pattern is a real symmetric function. Therefore, its weight is real symmetric. Assuming that n is an even number, its directivity function can be expressed as:
$$R(\theta)=2 \sum\limits_{k=1}^{N / 2} a_m \cos [(2 m-1) \varphi]$$ (5)
where φ=(πd/λ)cosθ, d is the array element spacing, λ is the signal wavelength, am is the weight of real symmetry, and meets am=am(m = 1, 2, ⋯, $\frac{N}{2}$). According to Equation (5), the highest order term of the N-element array polynomial R(θ) is cos[(N − 1)φ], which is a polynomial of N − 1 order. According to the properties of the Chebyshev polynomials, if the coefficients of the polynomials are equal to N − 1 order Chebyshev polynomials, the array has the best directivity, and all sidelobe heights are uniformly controllable. The maximum value of the main beam corresponds to TN−1(x0), and the amplitude of the sidelobe is 1. Therefore, the mainload to sidelobe ratio of the array pattern is V=TN−1(x0), which can be solved as x0 = ch($\frac{1}{N-1}$ch−1V). On this basis, the calculation formula of Chebyshev (Koretz and Rafaely 2009) weighted relative weight can be further obtained as:
$$I_N^k=\frac{N-1}{N-k} \sum_s\left(\begin{array}{l} k-2 \\ s \end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l} N-k \\ s+1 \end{array}\right)\left(1-\frac{1}{{x_0}^2}\right)^{s+1}$$ (6)
where Nk > 1, s = 0, 1, ⋯, $\left(\begin{array}{l}p \\ q\end{array}\right)=\left(\frac{p!}{q!(p-q)!}\right)(q \leqslant p)$, IN1 = 1. Therefore, the Chebyshev weighted weight vector of the uniform linear array can be expressed as Wq(θ)=[wq1(θ), ⋯ wqk(θ), ⋯ wqN(θ)]. In this vector, wqk(θ)=INke−j2π(k−1)d cos θ/λ/N. The azimuth spectrum P(θ) of Chebyshev beamforming can be obtained using Eq. (2):
$$\boldsymbol{P}(\theta)=\boldsymbol{W}_q^H(\theta) \boldsymbol{R}_x \boldsymbol{W}_q(\theta)$$ (7)
Deconvolution is the inverse process of convolution. (Hanisch et al. 1997; Biggs and Andrews 1997). Specifically, if we know the system function and the measured system output, we can deconvolute the unknown input function. In array signal processing, the beamforming spatial spectrum output of the array can be regarded as the sum of the product of the directivity function of the array at each observation angle and the angle target intensity (Mo and Jiang 2016). Therefore, it can be expressed as the following integral form:
$$\boldsymbol{P}(\theta)=\int R(\theta \mid \vartheta) S(\vartheta) \mathrm{d} \vartheta$$ (8)
where P(θ) represents the beamforming spatial spectrum output of different beamforming algorithms, S(ϑ) represents the objective function, reflecting the orientation and intensity information of the target, and R(θ|ϑ) represents the array directivity function of the pointing observation angle ϑ of the array corresponding to different beamforming algorithms. In this paper, R(θ|ϑ) refers to the Chebyshev weighted array natural directivity function. If the natural directivity function R(θ|ϑ) of the array does not change with the angle that meets R(θ|ϑ)=R(θϑ), then R(θ|ϑ) is called the shift-invariant in the angle domain. For a uniform linear array, the natural directivity function of Chebyshev beamforming is not shift-invariant in the angle domain; however, the shift-invariant in the cosine domain. To use the shift-invariant model deconvolution iterative processing method, the model of Formula (8) is rewritten into the cosine domain convolution model, and the expression is as follows:
$$\boldsymbol{P}(\cos \theta)=\boldsymbol{R}(\cos \theta) \times \boldsymbol{S}(\cos \theta)$$ (9)
R(cos θ) represents the natural directivity function of the Chebyshev weighted array according to a cosine distribution, which has spatial shift invariance. In the deconvolution algorithm, it is also called the point spread function (PSF) of the system. Eq. (9) is deduced under the conditions of no noise. However, in actual data processing, the noise will inevitably have an impact on the final results. Figure 1 shows the Chebyshev weighted array natural directivity function of an 11-element uniform linear array to illustrate the shift invariance of the uniform linear array in the cosine domain. The interval of array elements is half-wavelength. The target signal is a 1 kHz single frequency signal, and the SNR is set to 25 dB.
Figure 1 Dcv-Che-BF PSF function
As shown in Figure 1, the directivity function of the uniform linear array at different angles is the circumferential shift of the natural directivity function, so it is invariant in the cosine domain.
There are many deconvolution beamforming algorithms, including non-negative least squares (NNLS) (Chu and Yang 2013), a deconvolution approach for the mapping of acoustic source (DAMAS) algorithm (Dougherty 2005; Brooks and Humphreys 2006), and the Richardson Lucy (RL) algorithm (Richardson 1972; Blahut 2004). The RL algorithm has a better processing effect in an environment of low SNR (Ehrenfried and Koop 2006). Therefore, the RL algorithm was selected for deconvolution processing. The distribution of the signal in all directions is obtained by the RL iterative formula, which is a high-resolution signal azimuth estimation result S(cos ϑ). The specific iterative formula is shown in the following formula:
\begin{aligned} &S^{(r+1)}(\cos \vartheta)=S^{(r)}(\cos \vartheta)^* \\ &\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} \frac{R(\cos \theta-\cos \vartheta)}{\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} R(\cos \theta-\cos \vartheta) S(\cos \vartheta) \mathrm{d} \vartheta} P(\cos \theta) \sin \theta \mathrm{d} \theta \end{aligned} (10)
where r is the number of iterations. With the increase in the number of iterations, the result of deconvolution beamforming S(cos ϑ) gradually converges with the objective function (Hansen et al. 1999); however, the increase in the number of iterations requires more computation. Therefore, the number of iterations needs to be selected according to the actual demand. According to relevant literature, when the number of iterations is greater than 500, the performance improvement of CBF linear array deconvolution processing is very limited (Liu and Jia 2008). Therefore, this paper mainly uses 500 iterations for deconvolution processing, which can be used as the output of deconvolution beamforming to obtain a narrower mainlobe and lower sidelobe.
First, the performance of Chebyshev beamforming with different preset sidelobe levels was compared and analyzed under different output SNR. Note that the output SNR in this paper is equal to the input SNR plus array gain. Suppose the array is a 2-element acoustic-pressure uniform linear array. The array element space is half-wave, and the signal is a 1 kHz single frequency signal. The incoming wave direction is 0°, and the noise field is isotropic. Figure 2(a) and Figure 2(b) show the spatial spectrum results of Chebyshev beamforming and the other two methods when the output SNR is 20 dB and 7 dB.
Figure 2 Chebyshev beamforming spatial spectrum output under different SNR
As shown in Figure 2(a), when the output SNR is high and the preset sidelobe level is greater than the noise background level, the lower the preset sidelobe level, the lower the actual beam output sidelobe level. However, as shown by the yellow, purple, and green dotted lines in Figure 2(b), when the output SNR is low, the sidelobe level of Chebyshev beamforming with different preset sidelobe levels does not change significantly. Therefore, the performance of Dcv-Che-BF is not better with a lower preset sidelobe level in the presence of noise. More specifically, when the output SNR is low, although the lower preset sidelobe level is adopted, the sidelobe level of the Chebyshev beamforming is still high because of the noise background level.
Several simulation experiments were conducted to further illustrate the performance of Dcv-Che-BF. The spatial spectrum results of CBF, MVDR, RL-CBF deconvolution, and Dcv-Che-BF under the conditions of Figure 2(a) are shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3 Comparison results for a single target
As shown in Figure 3, compared with conventional methods, deconvolution methods can significantly reduce the mainlobe width and sidelobe level. MVDR has the same resolution as the deconvolution methods. However, its performance is usually degraded in the actual data processing because it is sensitive to location errors. Notably, there are interesting facts identified in Figure 3. The sidelobe level of Dcv-Che-BF with a high preset sidelobe level (−15 dB) was less than that with the low preset sidelobe level (−20 dB, −25 dB), which has a totally different trend from Chebyshev beamforming.
To further explain this phenomenon, we vary the preset sidelobe level to analyze how this affects the performance of the Dcv-Che-BF under the above conditions.
As shown in Figure 4, the red dotted curve is the Chebyshev beamforming result. The blue curve is the PSF with preset sidelobe level, and the black curve is the CBF result. Deconvolution processing has the characteristic that if the actual beam output is more similar to the PSF, the deconvolution performance will be better. As shown in Figure 4(a) and Figure 4(b), the mainlobes of the Chebyshev beamforming with different preset sidelobe levels match with their corresponding PSF completely. However, it is obvious that the sidelobes of the red and blue curves in Figure 4(a) are more similar than those in Figure 4(b). The sidelobe level of PSF with the lower preset sidelobe level (−20 dB) was less than the background noise level in Figure 4(b), which affects the performance of Dcv-Che-BF. Therefore, the performance of Dcv-Che-BF was not necessarily better with a lower preset sidelobe level in the presence of noise; however, it was much better when the preset side lobe level matched the SNR of the signal. In other words, the Dcv-Che-BF method can achieve a lower sidelobe level when the preset sidelobe level was slightly greater than the noise background level.
Figure 4 Chebyshev beamforming spatial spectrum output with different preset sidelobe levels
Several simulation experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
Note that the SNR below is the input SNR. As shown in Figure 5, the mainload to sidelobe ratio of Chebyshev beamforming is determined by its preset sidelobe ratio. However, the trend of Dcv-Che-BF's mainload to sidelobe ratio is more complex. In the case of low SNR, the mainload to sidelobe ratio of Dcv-Che-BF is mainly limited by the noise background level but much higher than that of the conventional methods. In the case of medium SNR (5‒15 dB), the mainload to sidelobe ratio of Dcv-Che-BF with a high preset sidelobe level (−15 dB) was greater than that with a low preset sidelobe level (− 20 dB, − 25 dB), which is the same to the above conclusion. At high SNR, the mainload to sidelobe ratio of both the conventional and deconvolved methods is extremely low.
Figure 5 Mainlobe to sidelobe ratios under different SNR
To further illustrate the resolution of the Dcv-Che-BF methods, a simulation was considered in which there were two equal intensity targets. Suppose the first target is under the conditions of Figure 2(a). The signal of the other target is a 500 Hz single frequency signal. The resolution of the above method with different preset sidelobe levels is compared and analyzed in Figure 6.
Figure 6 Resolution of four deconvolution methods
Note that the depth in this paper represents the depth between the trough and peak of the two targets. Therefore, the deeper the depth, the better the resolution. The depth gradually increases with the increase in SNR. At an SNR of 0 dB, the depth of Dcv-Che-BF (−15 dB) was the greatest, followed by −20 dB and then −25 dB. The depth of Dcv-Che-BF (−20 dB) exceeds the Dcv-Che-BF (−15 dB) mainload to sidelobe ratio after 5 dB, which further verifies the Dcv-Che-BF method can achieve better resolution capability when the preset sidelobe level is slightly higher than the noise background level.
Next, we varied the array elements to analyze how this affects the performance of the proposed method. Suppose the SNR is 20 dB, and the other conditions are the same as in Figure 5. The mainlobe width of the above methods under different array elements is shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7 Mainlobe width under the condition of different array elements
As shown in the Chebyshev beamforming in Figure 7, the higher the preset sidelobe level, the narrower the mainlobe width, which is consistent with the theory. Dcv-Che-BF also has a narrower mainlobe width when the preset sidelobe level is greater. The mainlobe of the above methods all decreases with increasing array elements.
To further evaluate the performance of the proposed method in practical applications, we analyzed the sea trial data from a towed array with different methods. The experiment was performed in the southern oceans of Sanya. The data were collected using a uniform linear array consisting of 32 elements with 0.25 m spacing. During the experiment, there were some sailing targets and other trial ships passing by on the sea surface. The strong interference around 0.95 in the cosine domain was actually the interference of the tugboat itself. The interferences around −0.8 and 0.85 in the cosine domain were two near targets. The interference around −0.07 in the cosine domain was a weak target. There were also some broadband pulse signals transmitted by other trial ships, which were reflected by the bright spots in Figure 8. The signal processing frequency band was from 1 500 Hz to 3 000 Hz. The CBF, MVDR, Chebyshev beamforming (− 25 dB), CBF deconvolution and DcvChe-BF with different preset sidelobe levels (−25 dB, − 20 dB, and −15 dB) were compared and analyzed, as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8 Comparison results for the sea trial data
As shown in Figure 8, the deconvolved beamforming methods can obtain a lower sidelobe level and better target resolution than the conventional methods. The performance of Dcv-Che-BF was different with the different preset sidelobe levels. As shown in Figure 8(h), although the sidelobes level of the above methods fluctuates wildly, the sidelobe level of Dcv-Che-BF(−15 dB) is the lowest. Therefore, in actual data processing, better data processing performance can be obtained by reasonably setting the sidelobe, which has also been verified in the above simulation.
Combined with the Chebyshev beamforming method, this paper introduces the deconvolution model and proposes a Dcv-Che-BF algorithm. On this basis, the influence of a preset sidelobe level on the performance of Dcv-Che-BF was further analyzed. The performance of Dcv-Che-BF was not necessarily better with a lower preset sidelobe level; however, it was much better when the preset sidelobe level was slightly greater than the noise background level. Computer simulations and sea trials results compared with CBF, Chebyshev, MVDR, CBF deconvolution, and Dcv-Che-BF has a narrower mainlobe width, lower sidelobe, and better azimuth resolution, especially in multi-target detection.

# UY1: Mean Free Path
Now, we wish to quantify the particle-particle collisions in this ideal gas. To do this, we need to “switch on” the idea that the particles have size.
Let us define the mean free path, $l$ to be the average distance travelled by the particles between collisions.
$$l = \frac{1}{n} \sum\limits_{i = 1}^{n} d_{i}$$
where
• n is the number of collisions
• $d_{i}$ is the distance between collision
• $\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{n} d_{i}$ will then be the total distance travelled
Finding the mean free path:
Assuming that the particles are identical spheres with diameter d. The particle under discussion (blue) is travelling with an average speed of < v >. It sweeps out a “collision” cylinder in space of diameter 2d which gives collision with other particles if their centres are inside this cylinder. Let us first assume that these other particles (red) are stationary.
Note: “Collision” volume: All stationary particles with centre-of-mass lying inside this cylinder will be hit by the moving blue particle
In time interval t, the “collision” volume is:
\begin{aligned} v_{\text{cylinder}} &= \text{area of top of cylinder} \times \text{height of cylinder} \\ &= \pi d^{2} \times \left< v \right> t \end{aligned}
Note: If you are wondering about the < v >t, it is just the distance that the blue particle travelled in time t.
The number of collisions during this time t is given by the number of stationary particles in this volume:
$$n = N_{d} \times V_{\text{cylinder}}$$
, where
Nd is the number density of particles
Since the total distance travelled is < v >t, and using the first equation for mean free path:
$$l = \frac{1}{N_{d} \pi d^{2} \left< v \right> t} \left( \left< v \right> t \right)$$
Hence,
$$l = \frac{1}{N_{d} \pi d^{2}}$$
Note: The above equation assumes that only the blue particle is moving, which is obviously not true.
Actually, all the particles are moving with the same $\left< v \right>$. In this case, it is the average relative velocity between the particles that determines the number of collisons. This average relative velocity is given by $\sqrt{2} \bar{v}$.
Hence, the mean free path is:
$$l = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} \pi N_{d} d^{2}}$$
The average time between collisions is given by:
\begin{aligned} t_{\text{coll}} &= \frac{l}{\left< v \right>} \\ &= \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} \pi N_{d} d^{2} \left< v \right>} \end{aligned}
The collision frequency is given by:
\begin{aligned} f_{\text{coll}} &= \frac{1}{t_{\text{coll}}} \\ &= \sqrt{2} \pi N_{d} d^{2} \left< v \right> \end{aligned}

### Introduction
A container of hot water at temperature, T, placed in a room of lower temperature Troom, will result in an exchange of heat from the hot water to the room. The water will eventually cool to the same temperature as the room. You observe this cooling process every time you wait for a hot drink to cool. In this experiment, you will examine the cooling of hot water, with the goal of creating a model that describes the process. You can also predict the time it takes for the hot water to cool to room temperature.
Isaac Newton modeled the cooling process by assuming that the rate at which thermal energy moved from one body to another is proportional (by a constant, k) to the difference in temperature between the two bodies, Tdiff. In the case of a sample of water cooling in room temperature air
${\text{cooling rate}} = -k{T_{diff}}$
From this simple assumption, he showed that the temperature change is exponential in time and can be predicted by
$T_{diff} = T_{0}e^{-kt}$
where T0 is the initial temperature difference. Exponential changes are common in science. Systems in which a rate of change is proportional to the changing quantity show exponential behavior.
To complete this experiment in a short time, you will use a small quantity of hot water, at a temperature about 30°C above room temperature. A Temperature Probe will record the water’s temperature as it cools.
### Objectives
• Use a Temperature Probe to record the cooling process of hot water.
• Test Newton’s law of cooling using your collected water temperature data.
• Use Newton’s law of cooling to predict the temperature of cooling water at any time.

The Playfair cipher has a key consisting of a square of $5 \times 5$ letters (usually the J is not used, or I/J are considered one letter). Filling the square can be done in $25!$ ways (pick a letter for left upper corner, a new one for the place next to it, and so on), but then every square has equivalent forms, formed by rotating the columns and/or ...

AES-GCM encrypts the plaintext in the Counter Mode. GHASH operates on the resulting ciphertext, so no weakness in GHASH could compromise the confidentiality of plaintext. The GCM authentication is not as strong as that of SHA-256, in particular on short tags. If the tag is $\tau$-bit, an adversary can forge the tag after $2^{\tau/2}$ attempts given the ...

You may be interested in reading up on the The TESLA Broadcast Authentication Protocol which uses the one-way key chain concept to achieve authentication. The basic idea of the key chain is to hash a secret key value repeatedly and use the hashes or "keys" in the reverse order for authentication. A simple example would be for Alice to compute ...

I have some thoughts about it. If two persons Alice and Bob are sharing secret symmetric key, which known only by them, then if Bob will send to Alice encrypted with key K, message M, it will be enough for proof that M was really created by Bob. Because only Bob knows secret key K, so only he could to encrypt message M with this key. Only one problem for ...

Bob's side seems to be "secure", because Bob generates the session-key which is encrypted with a preshared key (which obviously is not transmitted over an insecure channel). If you dismiss the possibility the easiness of a known plaintext attack the last step saves Bob side. This just saves the messages from Bob to Alice. For the rest of the communication ...

If a weak cipher is being used, it could be a possibility that an attacker could gather information about k(R1) and k(R2) and derive the k value. Following which, S could be decrypted with the derived k value. Eavesdropping could take place too. Similarly, a MITM would be possible too.
1
A MITM could note Rn and k(Rn) from one round of this session or a previous session, then replace Bob's k(S) with k(Rn), and continue talking with Alice using Rn as the session key.

Under some algorithms, if you are just encrypting (not authenticating with a MAC) S may be manipulated by the adversary and thus he would be able to see all data sent from Alice (he could impersonate Bob).
1
Obvious, but not serious weakness that numbers R1 and R2 will be sent in plain text. This means that MITM is able to modify R1 or R2 so that Alice or Bob will always be failed at authentication, although they have legal key K. I have one suggestion how you can improve this protocol. Just because in the last step of protocol, Bob send only encrypted S, MITM ...

Yes, as long as you obey all the total usage limits and choose the IV appropriately (see below). Whilst IV is a general term for any initialisation vector the recent trend has been to use the term 'IV' to refer to a random vector, and "nonce" (a contraction of "n-umber used once") to refer to an input vector that need not be random, but cannot be repeated. ...
1
IV (initial value or initialization vector) is a vague term that describes some kind of starting value for a mode of operation that is known to both parties, and generally sent in the clear with the encrypted data (and known to the attacker) IVs in many modes of operation have specific requirements to that mode. In some modes the requirement is that is ...

usually you two key are involved in any cipher. One for encrypting and the other for decrypting. The terms symmetric and and asymmetric apply to key spaces. symmetric ciphers: The cipher key is as good as the decipher key. If you know one of them, you could derive the other. Sometimes they are even the same. asymmetric ciphers: You can derive the public ...

Ciphers with Arbitrary Finite Domains by Black and Rogaway have some options like Prefix Ciphers, Generalized Feistel networks , Cycle walking etc. Also Format preserving encryption has traits that you are looking for , but NIST standardized ones are patented by Voltage Inc.

# Language Explore Project¶
In the Language Explore Project, you will research a programming language of your own choice, learn the language and write a few programs in it, and write a report highlighting and evaluating the languages features.
The criterions for the language you may choose are:
1. You cannot already have in-depth familiarity with the language. The purpose of this project is to learn a new programming language, and I don’t want you to explore a language you use frequently. It’s fine if you have basic familiarity (maybe read a bit of code, or written a function or two), but if you’ve written more than 100 lines of code in the language, you probably have in-depth familiarity and cannot explore that language.
2. The language cannot be esoteric. I want you to be able to evaluate (non-trivially) the features of the language using the evaluation criteria presented in the course, and esoteric languages are usually hard to apply to these criteria.
3. The language cannot be Haskell or Python. These are the languages we are exploring in the course, and hence you cannot overlap the exploration with your own personal exploration.
In addition, this project is parter optional, but working with a partner is highly recommended. I will allow teams of three as well, but discourage forming a team of three as I will have significantly increased expectations from teams of three (whereas partner/solo have the same expectations).
Slip days can be used on both the intermediate deliverables and the final deliverable. If you have a partner (or a team of three), slip days are pulled from everyone in your team. For example, if a deliverable is submitted a day late, one slip day will be pulled from each person.
## Deliverable 1: Find a Language, Find a Partner¶
Due Date: Wednesday, Feb 21st, at 11:59 PM. Email Jack (jrosenth@mines.edu)
First, find a programming language you would like to explore. A good place to start might be a list of programming languages by category. Read up on the language, does it intrigue you enough to write a few programs in it? Write a report on it? Could you evaluate it using the criteria we talked about in class?
Next, you may optionally find a partner who wants to work with you. If you don’t know anyone you might want to work with, send an Email to the mailing list with a few languages you’d be interested to be working with, and chances are someone will respond to you.
Finally, Email me your language selection and partner selection (if applicable).
## Deliverable 2: Draft of Example Programs¶
Due Date: Sunday, March 4th, at 11:59 PM Submit a .tar.{gz,bz2,xz} or .zip archive to Gradescope
Write a few example programs in your language. Your example programs should provide a demonstration of the languages features, or potentially something it’s pretty good for. For example, if you were exploring a Lisp-like language, you may want to write a program for symbolic manipulation, as Lisp is particularly good for this. As another example, if your language is really good at concurrency, you’ll definitely want to write an example which makes good use of concurrency.
For partner and solo teams, I expect two to three programs of reasonable size. I’m not looking for small code snippets, but decently sized programs; think approximately the complexity of a CSCI-261 or CSCI-262 homework project. For teams of three, I expect four or five programs of reasonable size.
Finally, for partners or teams of three, make sure to include in a comment at the top of each program with who wrote the program. If you pair programmed it together, make a note of that. It’s OK if programs are completed individually, I just expect that everyone will have written at least one program in total.
Include a plain text README file in your submission containing instructions on how to compile and run each program on a standard Linux machine. If you know how to write a Makefile, I would much appreciate if you could include one as well as it will make my grading easier [1] (Makefile is optional, but highly recommended).
Note
Even though I’m only asking for a draft, I still expect your programs to compile and run. The reason I consider it a “draft” is since I will allow you to change them slightly between the draft and the final submission.
Warning
Programs should be of your own work. Copying & pasting an 8-queens example from your language’s Wikipedia page will be considered plagarism. (An 8-queens program of your own work typically makes a good example program though).
[1] Pun intended
## Deliverable 3: Draft of Report¶
Due Date: Sunday, March 11th, at 11:59 PM Submit a .pdf file to Gradescope
Write a report that:
1. Introduces the programming language, its goals, and its history
2. Classifies the language, and provides an overview of the language’s features
3. Evaluates the language using the criteria presented in class (is it more writable than readable? Etcetera etcetera etcetera.)
5. Describes syntactic details that may make the language more expressive, but avoid describing lots of syntactic details (find a select few details that are important to the language)
6. Describes your example code, why you wrote it, what it shows, what it does, what problems you encountered, etc.
Make sure to follow the formatting and style requirements outlined below.
For this intermediate deliverable, I expect your report be mostly complete, that is, missing at most a section or some minor details.
For solo/partners, your report should probably be 3 to 5 pages in length (text length, don’t count space taken up by figures, code, and tables). For groups of three, your report should probably be 5 to 8 pages in length. Writing quality and conciseness is more important than volume, so a 3 page report that conveys its point very concisely will receive a better grade than a 5 page report that uses lots of fluff.
Report Formatting Requirements
• LaTeX highly recommended, but not a requirement. If you would like a LaTeX template (optional), you can download one here.
• Sized for letter paper
• 20 mm margins
• Single spaced
• No indentation for new paragraphs
• 4pt to 6pt skip between paragraphs
• 11pt or 12pt size, professional-looking serif font (do not use a sans-serif font)
• Section headings and the report title can be sans-serif if you would like
• Use a justified right margin if your typesetting software has good algorithms for breaking lines, use ragged-right otherwise
• Use section headings as appropriate, keep space used by section headings minimal (LaTeX users: try out \usepackage[compact,bf,small]{titlesec})
• Figures larger than one-third of a page should be placed in an appendix attached to the back
• Attach your large code examples to the very back of the report
• Cite your sources as appropriate, use IEEE-style citations
• All citations should be referred to in the text at least once
• Captions for figures should be placed below the graphic, and captions for tables should be placed above the table
• All tables and figures should be referred to in the text at least once by their figure or table number
• Sections of source code should be typeset in a fixed-width font, unless it is not the style of your language to do so (for example, block-based educational programming languages)
• Syntax highlighting is much appreciated, but not a requirement
• Mathematics should be professionally typeset using software like LaTeX, or using the Equation Editor in Microsoft
Writing Style Guidelines
• Write as concisely as possible, do not add any extra “fluff”
• Break your writing into well-organized paragraphs
• Use correct spelling, punctuation, and grammar
• Use a formal writing style (no “I”, “you”, “it”, etc.)
• When quoting or using parentheses, the punctuation is placed on the outside if you are ending the sentence, the inside if the inside content ends a sentence, or both if necessary. Same applies to commas. For example, if you are quoting I like turtles. at the end of a sentence, you would write “I like turtles.”. (that is, with two periods).
• Use abbreviations correctly. i.e. does not mean “in example”, and a comma always follows e.g..
• Your report must have a descriptive title; something more than just the name of the language you are exploring
## Final Deliverable¶
Due Date: Friday, March 23rd, at 11:59 PM Put your report PDF in the same archive as your code and submit on Gradescope.
For the final deliverable, finalize your report and code, and submit to Gradescope. Give yourself a pat on the back and go eat some froyo.

Abstract We prove the conjectural relations between Mahler measures and L-values of elliptic curves of conductors 20 and 24. We also present new hypergeometric expressions for L-values of elliptic curves of conductors 27 and 36. Furthermore, we prove a new functional equation for the Mahler measure of the polynomial family (1+X) (1+Y )(X+Y )−αXY, α∈ℝ.

# Do reversible black box obfuscators exist?
We shall say that an obfuscator $\mathcal{O}$ is a reversible black box obfuscator if for each reversible program $P$ the obfuscated program $\mathcal{O}(P)$ is still reversible but does not reveal any more information than an oracle that computes $x\mapsto P(x)$ along with an oracle that computes $x\mapsto P^{-1}(x)$. It is well-known that black box obfuscators do not exist. Do reversible black box obfuscators exist?
By "reversible program" I assume you mean an injective function.
The answer to your question is no, there is no black-box obfuscator for the set of injective functions.
The idea is to make an unobfuscatable function invertible using the Feistel trick. More formally, if $g: \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}^n$ define $Feistel_g : \{0,1\}^{2n} \to \{0,1\}^{2n}$ as
$$Feistel_g(x,y) = (x, g(x) \oplus y).$$
$Feistel_g$ is invertible regardless of $g$ (and a similar thing works when the input/output lengths of $g$ are different).
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the unobfuscatable function family from the Barak et al paper. Then define
$$Feistel_\mathcal{G} = \{ Feistel_g \mid g \in \mathcal{G} \}$$
Then this family consists of only invertible functions. Furthermore it is black-box unobfuscatable because black-box access to $g$ can be simulated given black-box access to $Feistel_g$ (and vice-versa). And oracle access to $(Feistel_g)^{-1}$ is redundant since $Feistel_g$ is its own inverse.

NonCommutative Baire theorem
The classical Baire theorem says that the intersection of a sequence of open dense subsets of $X$, is dense, if the space is compact Hausdorff. In the language of $C^{*}$ algebras this is equivalents to the following:
Assume that $I_{n},s$ are a sequence of essential ideals in a commutative unital $C^{*}$ algebra $A$. Assume that $J$ is an arbitrary nontrivial ideal.Then there is a maximal ideal $L$ which neither contain $J$, nor contains $I_{n}$. (no $I_{n}$ is contained in $L$).
This is a motivation to ask:
Is the above statement true for a commutative unital semisimple Banach algebra?
Is the above statement true for a unital non commutative $C^{*}$ algebra, provided we replace the "maximal ideals" by primitive Ideals?
-
I believe your second question asks if the primitive ideal space of a C*-algebra is a Baire space. It is (by a more general theorem of Choquet), see Blackadar's operator algebra book II.6.5.14 for details. – Caleb Eckhardt Apr 27 at 19:35
Two questions: (1) can you say a bit more about why your statement about ideals is equivalent to Baire category? Closed subsets of X correspond to zero sets of closed ideals in A, and Baire category says that the union of closed nowhere dense subsets is itself nowhere dense, but how does that translate into your statement about essential ideals? (2) What do you mean by an "essential ideal" in an arbitrary unital semisimple CBA? – Yemon Choi Apr 27 at 19:41
@CalebEckhardt thank you very much for the comment. I will look at the reference which you mentioned. – Ali Taghavi Apr 28 at 2:50
@YemonChoi an essential ideal is an ideal with nontrivial intersection with any other ideal. This is the algebraic analogy of open-dense subsets. I considered the "complement" version of the Baire theorem:the intersection of a sequence of open dense sets is dense.Let $U_{n}$ be a sequence of open dense sets. for every open set $W$, there is a point $p\in W$ which belongs $\cap U_{n}$. But a point of a classical space corresponds to a maximal ideal. On the other hand,$p\in W$ means that $I_{W^{c}}$ is not contained in $I_{p}$. the later two ideals are the same as you mentioned. – Ali Taghavi Apr 28 at 3:00
In fact an open set $U$ correspond to the ideal $I_{U^{c}}$. The fact that $\cap U_{n}$ is dense implies that for each open $W$,there is a $p$ with $p\in W$ ($I_{W^{c}}$ not contained in $I_{p}$), such that $p\in U_{n}$ for all $n$, that is no $I_{U_{n}^{c}}$ is contained in $I_{p}$ – Ali Taghavi Apr 28 at 3:13
This answer (should have been a comment) refers to the second question: The kinds of ideal lattices that one can get in a C*-algebra prevent this from happening in general. Take $\mathcal K^\sim$, the unitization of the compact operators (over a separable Hilbert space). The lattice of ideals of $\mathcal K^\sim$ isomorphic to {0,1,2}. The ideal corresponding to the compacts is essential and minimal among the non-zero ideals. So the property of the question cannot hold here. (One can even have the lattice of closed two-sided ideals of a C*-algebra isomorphic to the ordered set [0,1]. See "A purely infinite AH-algebra and an application to AF-embeddability", by Mikael Rordam.)

org-ref is on Melpa
| categories: | tags:
org-ref is out on Melpa !
Checkout this video (≈ 10 min.) of what it can do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t925KRBbFc
Here are the files that we used/generated:
1. Emacs configuration: org-ref-melpa.el
2. Here is the "manuscript" manuscript.org (note, I extracted the bibtex entries into this file)
3. The resulting PDF: manuscript.pdf
Some killer new features:
1. Drag-n-drop a PDF or url onto a bibtex file to add bibtex entries. This works when org-ref knows how to get a DOI from the PDF or url.
Thanks everyone who has already tried it out and reported bugs!

Introduction to a citation processor in org-ref
| categories: | tags:
As a potential solution for citations in org-mode for non-LaTeX export, here we introduce csl (citation syntax lisp). The idea is heavily influenced by the xml-based Citation Syntax Language, but uses lisp sexps instead.
Briefly, there is a csl file that contains two variables: citation-style and bibliography-style. The citation-style defines how the in-text citations are represented for different types of citations. The bibliography-style defines how the bibliography is constructed.
What do we gain by this?
1. No need for external citeproc program, and hackability by org-mode experts.
2. Punctuation transposition and space chomping, i.e. put superscripts on the right side of punctuation if you want it, and remove whitespace before superscripts if you want it.
3. Total tunability of the citation format to different backends.
4. Easy to change bibliography format with the bibliographystyle link.
5. The use of Bibtex databases. These are plain text, and flexible.
The real code for this is too long to blog about. Instead, you should check it out here: https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref/tree/master/citeproc
1 Reference types
• A book.1
• An article2
• A miscellaneous bibtex type.3
There is work to do in supporting other types of entry types that are common in bibtex files.
2 Citation types
• Regular citation:2
• citenum: See Ref. 2
• citeauthor: Kitchin
• citeyear: 2015
There is work to do in supporting other types of citations.
3 Multiple citations and sorting within citation
You can specify that the cites within a citation are consistently sorted in the export.
• a,b:2,4
• b,a:2,4
There is work to do for range collapsing, e.g. to turn 1,2,3 into 1-3.
4 Space chomping and punctuation testing
I think citations should always be put in the sentence they logically belong to. LaTeX has a feature through natbib I think where for some styles, e.g. superscripts, the citations are moved to the right side of punctuation, and whitespace is chomped so the superscript is next to words, not separated by spaces. We can do that here too.
• Citation at end of sentence.2
• Citation in clause,2,4 with a comma.
• Citation in middle of2,4 a sentence.
5 Building
At the moment, you have to add a hook function to put the replacements in the document before parsing.
(add-to-list 'load-path ".")
(require 'org-ref-citeproc)
(let ((org-export-before-parsing-hook '(orcp-citeproc)))
(browse-url (org-html-export-to-html)))
#<process open ./readme.html>
(add-hook 'org-export-before-parsing-hook 'orcp-citeproc)
orcp-citeproc
6 Summary thoughts
This looks promising. There is probably a lot of work to do to make this as robust as say citeproc-js or the Zotero handler. I am not sure if we could write this in a way to directly use the CSL. My feeling is it would not be as flexible as this, and we would have to add to it anyway.
Here are some remaining things that could be worked on if we continue this direction.
1. Other bibtex entries need to be tested out.
2. Remaining bibtex fields need to be defined.
3. Standardization of styling that can be done. Not all features described in my csl are supported, e.g. et. al. and probably others.
4. The author-year style needs name disambiguation somehow.
6. Make sure export to other backends works.
7. Can this work for notes-based styles?
7 Bibliography
You use a bibliographystyle link to specify a csl. These are similar to bibtex styles, and in some cases no change is needed for LaTeX export (although you may have to remove the citeproc hook function).

Improving org-ref cite links with tooltips
| categories: | tags:
Org-ref uses timers to give you messages about the cite link at point. I am not so crazy about the timer, there is always a (short) delay, and I have had trouble debugging timers in the past, and you have to put the point on the link. Since I wrote that code, I have learned some new things about Emacs, including dynamic tooltips. This will allow me to use the mouse to see what a cite link refers to. While reading documents, I am more likely to use a mouse than when typing a document, and getting a tooltip by hovering sounds like a good idea.
Here, we explore using dynamic tooltips on cite links. The idea is pretty simple, we tie into font-lock to add a function to the :help-echo property of a cite link. The function will go to point, and compute the citation string at point, which will be displayed as a tooltip when the mouse hovers over the citation.
Font-lock allows you to specify a function that sets match-data and that can have other side-effects, e.g. setting text properties. Org-ref has a regexp that defines cite links, which we use here, and a function that gets the citation string at point. We just go to the mouse position, and get that string, wrapped in a save-excursion macro so that point does not actually move. Then, we add the function to font-lock keywords, and we are done!
Here are some papers we wrote on using org-mode kitchin-2015-examp,kitchin-2015-data-surfac-scien and some other references in my bibliography zou-2014-cobal-embed,zlotea-2014-nanoal and one final example zhu-2015.
Here is the short code required to do this. You can see the tooltips in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifSmlId2rk0
(defun org-ref-match-next-cite-link (&optional limit)
(when (re-search-forward org-ref-cite-re limit t)
(match-beginning 0) (match-end 0)
(list
'help-echo (lambda (window object position)
(save-excursion
(goto-char position)
(let ((s (org-ref-get-citation-string-at-point)))
(with-temp-buffer

Update on org-ref - it is now all emacs-lisp
| categories: | tags:
The org-ref code is finally all in emacs-lisp! This should make it much easier to install, and is another step closer to getting org-ref into MELPA. Previously, I had written the most significant code in org-mode source blocks that were intended to be tangled out. I found this was not really portable, because what gets tangled depends on your org-mode setup. I had to specifically set example blocks to not tangle, or org-ref would not work for other people, and if I forgot to set a block to tangle, it also would not work for others. That should not happen again now, since there is no more tangling.
There are some relatively new features in org-ref:
1. New colored org-ref links to differentiate them from other org-links. Citations are greenish, refs and labels are maroonish.
2. Context messages about links. With your cursor on a cite, ref or label link you will get a context message, e.g. a formatted citation, some context about the label a ref refers to, or a count of the labels in the mini-buffer.
4. There is a new org-ref-help function that opens an org-file of org-ref documentation.
5. Pretty thorough integration of helm throughout org-ref, and some integration of hydra.
6. A few utility libraries: doi-utils, isbn, wos, pubmed, arxiv, jmax-bibtex, sci-id, x2bib. Not all these are new, but if you didn't know about them, check them out.
7. Cask integration. This mostly provides access to testing and dependencies right now. org-ref is also now tested continuously at https://travis-ci.org/jkitchin/org-ref .
org-ref is basically feature complete I think (which is to say that once again, I do not have any big ideas for new features ;). There are some places where it could be refactored a little, e.g. there are some bibtex only functions in org-ref.el that really should go into jmax-bibtex.el (which also could be renamed). This is a very low priority though, because things are working fine as far as I can tell.
What does it need before going into MELPA? Probably some tests would be a good idea. On Travis, all that is really tested is that it loads with no errors. I would like to see some stability on my end, e.g. at least a week where no commits get made, and no errors are reported. And finally, I would like to make sure I have some time to handle issues that come up when a broader audience is trying it out.
My target date to get this in MELPA is June 1, 2015. Try out the new org-ref, and let me know how it goes!
