This document summarizes research characterizing DNA methylation in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas. High-throughput bisulfite sequencing was used to analyze DNA methylation patterns at high resolution. Several genes were found to have different levels and patterns of methylation across tissues and developmental stages. The results provide evidence that DNA methylation plays an important regulatory role and may be involved in environmental responses in C. gigas. Future work will investigate how epigenetic mechanisms are affected by environmental stressors.

This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a novel video watermarking scheme using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and principal component analysis (PCA). The scheme embeds a binary logo watermark into video frames for copyright protection. PCA is applied to blocks of two bands (LL-HH) resulting from DWT of video frames. The watermark is embedded into the principal components of LL and HH blocks at different levels. Combining DWT and PCA improves the watermarking performance by distributing the watermark bits over sub-bands, increasing robustness to attacks. The scheme provides imperceptible watermarking that is robust against various attacks such as geometric transformations and brightness/contrast adjustments.

This document compares the performance of the eigenface and fisherface algorithms for face recognition. It finds that fisherface generally performs better, especially when the training database has limited samples across different poses. Specifically:
1. Fisherface maximizes between-class differences while eigenface focuses on total variation, making fisherface better for classification.
2. Testing on a database with dense pose sampling, both algorithms achieved 100% accuracy.
3. However, with sparse pose sampling fisherface recognized faces better, correctly classifying 16/20 while eigenface got 14/20.
4. The document concludes that fisherface is more robust, especially with limited training data across poses, while eigenface needs more data to

The document discusses a method for compressing color images using block truncation coding (BTC) and genetic algorithms. BTC works by dividing images into blocks and quantizing each block to a high or low value based on the block's mean. This reduces quality issues with BTC. Color images have correlated red, green, and blue planes. The method uses a common bit plane optimized with genetic algorithms to represent all three color planes, improving quality and compression ratio compared to standard BTC and error diffused BTC. Experimental results showed the proposed method provided higher quality reconstructed images as measured by peak signal-to-noise ratio.

The Reality of Aeronautical Knowledge
This document provides an analysis of 523 helicopter accident reports against what pilots are expected to know based on training manuals. It finds that the most common cause of accidents was loss of control, often due to failures in pilot decision-making, procedure implementation, or performance management. Accidents were most frequent during personal/private flights and flight instruction. The majority of accidents occurred in good weather and involved pilots with substantial experience. The analysis aims to provide pilots with perspective on accidents by highlighting recurring issues to improve safety.

Thisreview paperstudies the influence of the national culture onflying safety in the cockpit. Likewise, the study aims toevaluate the pilot behaviour and response to risk during flight in terms of pilot decisionmaking. According to Helmreich (2000), ―cultural values are so deeply ingrained; it is unlikely that exhortation, edict, or generic training programs can modify them. The challenge is to develop organizational initiatives that congruent with the culture‖. Thus,evaluating the technology-culture interference impact on a pilot’s decision-making performance, within a specific region gives deep understanding of the pilot’s behaviour under the effect of this region national culture. In addition,this appraises the risk tolerance, error management and factors that affect pilot decision-making in regarding to national culture within the region.The expected contribution of this research is to enhance the pilot decision-making performance within the region of North Africa. Moreover, this study will enhances the implementation of Crew Resource Management training program (CRM), in which will support the culture calibration of the CRM tofit the pilot’sneeds within this region. Ultimately, a safe operation of the aircrafts and improvethe aviation marketwithin the region

This study examined 113 commercial aviation accidents and incidents from 2002-2012 to evaluate the application of Crew Resource Management (CRM). 57 (50%) of the events listed a CRM-related causal factor or comment in the investigation report. The data supports the need for robust airline management procedures and CRM training guidelines to enhance pilot monitoring skills and CRM application, though no statistically significant relationship was found between CRM-related causes and airline management practices. CRM aims to develop skills like communication, decision making, and task management to mitigate human error, and plays an important role in flight safety internationally.

Dual Image Grooved Sign Final
This document presents the Dual Image Grooved Sign (DIGS) design for improving runway safety. DIGS are pavement signs embedded in taxiways and runways that can display two information signs when viewed from different angles, providing guidance information to pilots on both sides of the centerline. This increases pilot situational awareness and reduces the risk of runway incursions. The design was informed by research on current signage systems and input from aviation industry experts. Analysis suggests DIGS could effectively enhance safety while lowering costs compared to alternatives like runway status lights.

This document describes a study that uses a system dynamics model to analyze the life cycle costs of an airline's aging aircraft fleet. The model aims to determine the average age of the fleet that will minimize long-term costs. It reviews literature on cost analysis using system dynamics modeling and maintenance costs for aging aircraft. The framework model makes assumptions about fleet composition and calculates variables like maintenance costs and fleet age. Simulation results show the total costs and average fleet ages over time for different desired average fleet ages. The model can help airlines identify policies to reduce costs by optimizing the average age of their fleets.

Re: Safety in Aviation Submittal 1420 new Bellevue
Dear Mr. Elwell,
Enclosed is my aviation submission for safety in aviation at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. My project was on aviation safety and from the word go relied on quantitative studies. The PDF packet includes 9 pages and breaks down as follows:
1. The letter of transmittal: pg.2
2. Abstract: pg.3
3. Analytical paragraph: pg.5
4. Introduction and Background: pg.6
5. Recommendation: pg.9
6. Conclusion: pg.10
7. References: pg.11
Considering the nature of report, it is limited in scope to different structure and platforms; we expect some challenges in the completion of research topic due to the time factor. I fully expect a further research and analysis of data applying statistical tools. On top of that, the project calls for analysis and recommendation of the research. The memorandum is attached to show the job allocation and scheduling thus I would require more time as I shall rely upon qualitative and quantitative tools of research. Therefore, I would request for a special consideration of all my sections of the project.
I would like to go ahead with my project on safety in aviation. Kindly pay a close attention to the progressive report of the work done and offer any green light for the completion of the project. Your guidance would be appreciated to the latter. Moreover, let me know if you experience any difficulties with my files or anything that seems to be not in order.

Ben Rothke Aoa 2008 Biometrics
- Biometrics can be an effective technology for aviation security if properly implemented, but requires careful planning and management to be successful.
- Key factors for a successful biometric deployment include having clearly defined security objectives, starting small and gaining successes before expanding, and ensuring effective user education and buy-in.
- Biometrics are one part of an overall security system and must be integrated with operational processes and personnel to be effective. Proper project methodology is essential.
Predictive analytics NTSB aviation accidents data
This document describes a project analyzing aviation accident data from the National Transportation Safety Board to develop a classification model for predicting injury severity. The team used the SEMMA approach, which includes sampling, exploring, modifying, modeling, and assessing the data. In the sampling step, they selected a dataset of over 79,000 aviation accidents from 1962-2017. In exploration, they performed various visualizations and identified patterns between variables like injury severity correlating with aircraft damage level. For modification, they preprocessed the data by recoding variables and dropping or combining others to prepare the data for modeling. Their goal is to build a predictive model and provide recommendations to help prevent future aviation accidents.
Predictive Analytics - NTSB Aviation accidents data
To predict the injury severity of an aircraft crash with the help of National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) data since the year 1962 and design a classification model using machine learning algorithms.
Foqa good one
This document summarizes a GAO report on efforts by the Federal Aviation Administration and U.S. airlines to implement Flight Operational Quality Assurance (FOQA) programs. FOQA programs involve analyzing flight data from regular airline flights to identify potential safety problems before they cause accidents. The report finds that FOQA programs have identified previously unknown safety issues at some airlines and helped quantify known problems. FOQA data has led airlines to take corrective actions to enhance safety. However, data protection concerns among airlines and pilots around FOQA data use could impede full implementation of these programs in the U.S.

ACA Has Worsened Medicaid's Structural Problems
The document summarizes evidence that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has exacerbated Medicaid's existing structural problems. It notes that ACA Medicaid expansion incentives have led to higher-than-expected enrollment and spending. States receive a higher federal matching rate for expansion enrollees, creating an incentive to increase fees and payments for their care while favoring them over traditional enrollees. Open-ended federal reimbursement also makes Medicaid difficult to cut. The document also finds higher spending per expansion enrollee, a proliferation of Medicaid waste, and a lack of clear health benefits from the expansion. It calls for Medicaid reform to reduce federal spending while preserving safety nets and giving states more flexibility and control over their programs.
Evaluating a Sluggish Economy with Bruce Yandle
In the first half of 2016, the US economy skirted close to recession territory but so far has registered positive growth. What are the major forces that seem to be driving the slow-growth economy? Is the economy getting stronger? Or, will we hit recession territory before the end of the year?
Affordable Care Act's 6 Year Anniversary
The document discusses the 6 year anniversary of the Affordable Care Act and provides information on 2016 exchange enrollment, the makeup of the risk pool, and what has been learned. It notes that 12.7 million people signed up for exchange plans in 2016, slightly higher than the 11 million projected. However, the risk pool skewed older and poorer than expected. Many healthy and young individuals did not find the plans attractive without subsidies. The individual mandate also did not work as intended to increase coverage as many found ways to take advantage of ACA rules. Large attrition in enrollment occurred during 2016.
Capitol Hill Campis March 2016
This document discusses several factors contributing to slower economic growth in the United States, including geographic differences, monetary policy, and regulatory uncertainty. It notes that real GDP growth has declined since 2000 and that unemployment rates varied widely by state from 2010. The document also examines how regulations can be influenced by interested parties and how targeting regulations to distribute benefits can impact economic performance.
Nominal GDP Targeting
This document discusses the advantages of targeting the growth rate of the money supply rather than interest rates. It lists advantages as not needing to know the money supply, inflation becoming less sensitive to short-run changes, monetary policy becoming more predictable, and less need to consider the real economy. The document also cites F.A. Hayek and Milton Friedman discussing how the money supply must change to offset movements in velocity to maintain monetary neutrality.
Understanding the U.S. Health Care System
The Affordable Care Act fundamentally changed the landscape of the U.S. health care system. With more than five years since the law’s passage, questions remain about how to fix a system that remains broken despite recent reform efforts. Did the Affordable Care Act adequately reform a failing health system, or did that prescription only treat the symptoms of a much larger illness?
Wireless Spectrum in 2016: A Policy Update
The document summarizes wireless spectrum policy in the United States in 2016 and discusses potential future policy directions. It provides an overview of spectrum characteristics, increasing demand but constrained supply, the history of spectrum policy, current federal and non-federal allocation and management, recent auctions that generated billions for the Treasury, and proposals to repurpose underutilized federal spectrum through incentive auctions, geographic sharing, and overlay license auctions. The goal is to increase commercial access and use of spectrum to spur innovation while balancing federal needs.

Modernizing Freight Rail Regulation: Recommendations from the TRB Study
The document summarizes the key findings and recommendations from a TRB study on modernizing freight rail regulation. It discusses how the Staggers Act of 1980 partially deregulated the freight rail industry and the positive effects this had. However, it notes some lingering issues like rate regulation, switching rules, and merger approvals. The speaker recommends using rate benchmarking models based on competitive markets to identify rates qualifying for arbitration. The proposal also suggests streamlining switching, service complaints, and merger processes while reviewing rail industry data collection.
Modernizing the SSDI Eligibility Criteria: Trends in Demographics and Labor M...
This document discusses how changes in demographics and labor markets affect eligibility criteria for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). It notes that SSDI outlays and participation have doubled in recent decades. While the aging workforce partly explains this, disability rates have remained flat. The document also discusses how a growing share of SSDI awards are decided based on vocational factors like age, education, and experience rather than medical conditions alone. However, it argues these vocational criteria are outdated and no longer reflect today's labor market which has shifted away from manual work to more sedentary, service jobs. The document recommends eliminating or modifying vocational criteria in SSDI eligibility determinations to better align with modern labor market realities.
An Economic Situation Update with Bruce Yandle
The economy seems to have fallen off of the Yellow Brick Road of steady real GDP growth. Are we now lost in the woods without a compass?
How Can Policymakers and Regulators Better Engage the Internet of Things?
The world today is seemingly always plugged into the Internet and technologies are constantly sharing data about our personal and professional lives. Device connectivity is on an upward trend with Cisco estimating that 50 billion devices will be connected to the Internet by 2020. Collection and data sharing by these devices introduces a host of new vulnerabilities, raising concerns about safety, security, and privacy for policymakers and regulators.
What Should We Do about Cyber Attacks?
The document discusses options for addressing increasing cyber attacks, particularly against the US Federal government. It notes several existing information sharing programs between government and private sectors. While a new program called CISA is proposed, the document questions if another program is needed given existing overlap. Instead, it suggests prioritizing security over surveillance, responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities, enforcing two-factor authentication, limiting contractors, and allowing security research to strengthen defenses long-term through a strategic, systematic approach rather than an urgent "sprint".
Tools for Tracking the Economic Impact of Legislation
Laws passed by Congress impact the economy, but Congress has no systematic way to comprehensively track and assess the economic impact of legislative actions. This is especially difficult when laws empower federal agencies to regulate. While the current budget process scores and tracks the economic impact of spending and taxes, it does not account for the economic consequences of regulation.
The Sharing Economy: Perspectives on Policies in the New Economy
The document discusses the sharing economy, how it works, and implications for policymakers. It explains that the sharing economy involves taking assets one owns and making them available to others for a fee via platforms like Uber and Airbnb. This allows individuals to earn income from underutilized assets. However, it poses challenges for policymakers accustomed to traditional employment models. The document argues that policymakers must adapt regulations to 21st century sharing platforms rather than try to apply outdated 20th century frameworks.

The Social Security Disability Insurance (DI) trust fund’s projected 2016 depletion will require Congress to act soon to prevent large, sudden benefit cuts.
Experts on both sides of the aisle have noted that a “quick fix” of simply shifting payroll taxes from Social Security’s much larger retirement trust fund (OASI) into DI, without further reform, could cost Congress its last chance to solve Social Security’s broader financing problems before it is too late. What more responsible reform options are available?

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
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.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
