The Coalition of Democrats for Electoral Reform (CODER) observed the botched April 2011 National Assembly elections in Nigeria. CODER is committed to free and fair elections. Their observations found issues including absent or late electoral officials in 60 reports (34%), incomplete voting materials in 31 reports (18%), and violence in 24 reports (14%). CODER established an election monitoring website, Pollwatch2011.com, to collect reports of irregularities from the public and observers across Nigeria. The website also maps reported issues by state.
This document discusses different types of consonant sounds in language. It describes trills, liquids like l and r, approximants like j and w, and retroflex consonants. It also explains that sounds are often grouped based on similar manner or place of articulation, with larger groupings including obstruents (stops, fricatives, affricates) and sonorants (nasals, liquids). Non-pulmonic sounds like clicks are also briefly mentioned.
Gender and class grouping systems categorize nouns in languages. Some languages have natural gender systems like English that group nouns as masculine, feminine or neutral. Dyirbal, an Australian Aboriginal language, has a more complex 4 class noun system. The class a noun belongs to determines the pronoun used to refer to it. Traditionally, Class 1 was for male things, Class 2 for dangerous females and items, Class 3 for edible plants, and Class 4 for inanimate objects. Younger speakers of Dyirbal now have a simplified 2 class system of male versus everything else.
The document is a doctoral dissertation by He Zhang from Aalto University. It discusses advances in nonnegative matrix decomposition and its application to cluster analysis.

Introduction to Model-Based Machine LearningDaniel Emaasit
The field of machine learning has seen the development of thousands of learning algorithms. Typically, scientists choose from these algorithms to solve specific problems. Their choices often being limited by their familiarity with these algorithms. In this classical/traditional framework of machine learning, scientists are constrained to making some assumptions so as to use an existing algorithm. This is in contrast to the model-based machine learning approach which seeks to create a bespoke solution tailored to each new problem.
An alternative learning experience in transition level mathematicsDann Mallet
QUT Mathematical Sciences Seminar series, November 1 2013
Traditionally at QUT, mathematics and statistics are taught using a face-to-face lecture/tutorial model involving large lecture classes for around 1/2 to 3/4 of the time and smaller group tutorials for the remainder of the time. This is also one of the main models for teaching at other campus-based institutions. Recently, in response to (learning) technology advances and changes in the ways learners seek education, QUT has made a significant commitment to a “Digital Transformation” project across the university. In this seminar I will present a technical overview, with some demonstrations, of a pilot project that seeks to investigate how digital transformation might work in a QUT mathematics or statistics subject. In particular, I will discuss the use of tablet PC technology and specialist software to produce video learning packages. This approach has been trialled in a transition level mathematics unit this semester. I will also cover integration of these learning packages with QUTs Learning Management System “Blackboard”. This seminar is a technical preview to another talk I will give early in the new year that will look at the impact of the altered learning experience on student outcomes, feedback and the unit itself.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Summary
I have degrees in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics, and have particular
skills in the use of the computer algebra systems Magma and GAP 4, software documentation
and the provision of interfaces to facilitate the accessibility of documentation. Most recently I
have developed interactive interfaces to standalone C programs from within GAP 4, the result
being the two GAP 4 packages ACE and the soon-to-be-released ANUPQ. In my previous position,
I developed a Magma program to search for defining sets of designs, and did some Linux system
administration which utilised my skills in writing perl programs. I am also skilled as a teacher,
through my many years’ tutoring in engineering and mathematics and some lecturing.

Most Recent Research:
2001: Graduiertenkolleg Postdoctoral position Completed development of the GAP 4
Package ACE started in my previous position at the University of Queensland.
Developed another GAP 4 Package ANUPQ. The ANUPQ Package was previously
available as a GAP 3 package. A translation of the original package to GAP 4
was made by Werner Nickel. For each of ACE and ANUPQ, my contribution was
to provide an interactive GAP 4 interface to an existing C program using GAP 4
iostreams (a feature introduced to GAP 4 in March, 2000), thus providing the
interactivity of the standalone program from within GAP.
Past Research:
1998 Elements of Prime Order in Primitive Permutation Groups: Thesis for Doctor of Phi-
losophy Degree (UWA). The determination of primitive permutation groups con-
taining an element of degree mp and order p, where p is a prime and p ≤ m ≤ p2 .

Perl: Each of the following programs gives its own manpage when called with the
option -h, e.g. docpack -h
• docpack. Compresses (or decompresses) a tree of HTML files (using gzip)
taking care not to break any hyperlinks. It does this by first determining
an “HTML orbit” of files, modifying the href links in these files that are to
HTML orbit files, and then it compresses each file in the HTML orbit. It also
has a “report” mode, which just reports what files are in the HTML orbit
and any “bad links” (hyperlinks to nonexistent files) it finds.
• htmlls. Recursively creates HTML contents lists of directories. The idea is
to give a listing of files and subdirectories for a web http directory similar to
that served by web browsers for anonymous ftp sites, e.g. see
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~gregg/lslist.html
• mirrorls. Compiles a directory listing or compares two mirror sites (for use,
when one’s ftp program does not support a mirror option to ensure two
mirror sites are synchronised).
