Abstract
Surface fault rupture during recent earthquakes has significantly damaged structures. Although several researchers have studied surface fault rupture, the effects of fault rupture propagating through soil that has been ruptured previously have not been investigated. Yet, faults rupture multiple times so that native soil deposits will have likely undergone previous ruptures that would have developed shear bands within the soil, and the stress state of the soil will have evolved because of these events. ...

Abstract
Surface fault rupture can be damaging to structures built on or near active faults if the hazard is not addressed properly. Fault-induced angular distortion and lateral ground strain can cause beams to yield and eventually lead to structural collapse. When avoidance is not possible, geotechnical mitigation strategies can be used. ...

Abstract
Carcinogenic human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are necessary causes of most anogenital cancers. Viral load has been proposed as a marker for progression to cancer precursors but has been confirmed only for HPV16. Challenges in studying viral load are related to the lack of validated assays for a large number of genotypes. We compared viral load measured by Linear Array (LA) HPV genotyping with the gold standard, quantitative PCR (Q-PCR). LA genotyping and Q-PCR were performed in 143 cytology specimens from women referred to colposcopy. LA signal strength was measured by densitometry. ...

Standardized one-step real-time RT-PCR assay detected enterovirus RNA in cardiac biopsy samples from 4 of 20 patients suffering from idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM). The median viral load was 287 copies per microgram of total extracted nucleic acids, with positive- to negative-strand RNA ratios ranging from 2 to 20. These results demonstrate enterovirus persistence in the heart of IDCM patients, characterized by low viral loads and low positive- to negative-RNA ratios. ...

Abstract
Eleven new withanolides (1–11) were isolated and characterized from the aerial parts of Nicandra john-tyleriana. Five of these withanolides have an unmodified skeleton (1–5), two are acnistins (6, 7), and four are withajardins (8–11). These new isolates were fully characterized using a combination of spectroscopic techniques (including multidimensional NMR) and mass spectrometry. All compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against Bacillus, Enterococcus, Escherichia, Listeria, Pseudomonas, and Staphylococcus strains. ...

Abstract
Anal human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are common, and the incidence of anal cancer is high in HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM). To evaluate the performance of HPV assays in anal samples, we compared the cobas HPV test (cobas) to the Roche Linear Array HPV genotyping assay (LA) and cytology in HIV-infected MSM. Cytology and cobas and LA HPV testing were conducted for 342 subjects. We calculated agreement between the HPV assays and the clinical performance of HPV testing and HPV genotyping alone and in combination with anal cytology. ...

Abstract
In a rational choice model of parole release, a color-blind parole board seeking to minimize violations would release all prisoners below a certain risk threshold. To test this prediction, we extend the outcome-test methodology used in assessing discrimination in police searches. We overcome the inframarginality critique by taking advantage of strategic timing of release: within each racial group, violation rates are equalized for a given sentence length. We use the National Corrections Reporting Program data, which record all parole-release decisions in the United States. We find that violation rates are consistently higher for African American parolees, a result not consistent with a parole board bias against African Americans. This conclusion is robust to a variety of tests, including ruling out postrelease discrimination. Evidence on the timing of release suggests a policy aimed at limiting racial disparities in time served rather than in violation rates, which favors fairness over efficiency. ...

We investigate the dual role of money as a self-insurance device and a means of payment when perfect risk sharing is not possible, and when the two roles of money are disentangled. We use a variant of Lagos–Wright (2005) where agents face a risk in the centralized market (CM): in the decentralized market (DM) money’s main role is as a means of payment, while in the CM it is as a self-insurance device. We show that state-contingent inflation rates can improve agents’ ability to self-insure in the CM, thereby improving the terms of trade in the DM. We then characterize the optimal monetary policy. ...

Abstract
Given a mixed hyperspectral data set, linear unmixing aims at estimating the reference spectral signatures composing the data-referred to as endmembers-their abundance fractions and their number. In practice, the identified endmembers can vary spectrally within a given image and can thus be construed as variable instances of reference endmembers. Ignoring this variability induces estimation errors that are propagated into the unmixing procedure. ...

Abstract
The increased penetration of renewable energy sources in existing power systems has led to necessary developments in electricity market mechanisms. Most importantly, renewable energy generation is increasingly made accountable for deviations between scheduled and actual energy generation. However, there is no mechanism to enforce accountability for the additional costs induced by power fluctuations. These costs are socialized and eventually supported by electricity customers. We propose some metrics for assessing the contribution of all market participants to power regulation needs, as well as an attribution mechanism for fairly redistributing related power regulation costs. We discuss the effect of various metrics used by the attribution mechanisms, and we illustrate, in a game-theoretical framework, their consequences on the strategic behavior of market participants. ...

Abstract
Clonidine hydrochloride is administered to opioid-addicted mothers’ neonates to reduce neonatal abstinence syndrome. It is prescribed off-label to neonates at 0.5–1 µg/kg/6?h, alone or in combination. The commercially injectable form of clonidine—Catapressan® 0.15?mg/mL—is being orally given after an appropriate dilution in water. ...

SyMIL: MinMax Latent SVM for Weakly Labeled Data

Abstract
Designing powerful models able to handle weakly labeled data are a crucial problem in machine learning. In this paper, we propose a new multiple instance learning (MIL) framework. Examples are represented as bags of instances, but we depart from standard MIL assumptions by introducing a symmetric strategy (SyMIL) that seeks discriminative instances in positive and negative bags. The idea is to use the instance the most distant from the hyper-plan to classify the bag. We provide a theoretical analysis featuring the generalization properties of our model. ...

Abstract
Manufacturing of workpieces with computerized numerical control machines requires computing machine tool trajectories that fast and accurately track the desired workpiece contour. This paper presents a novel B-spline trajectory generation method for machine tools. The method solves an optimal control problem to minimize the motion time of the tool, while taking into account the velocity, acceleration, and jerk limits of the tool axes. ...
