Docforia : A Multilayer Document Model

In this paper, we describe Docforia, a multilayer document model and application programming interface (API) to store formatting, lexical, syntactic, and semantic annotations on Wikipedia and other kinds of text and visualize them. While Wikipedia has become a major NLP resource, its scale and heterogeneity makes it relatively difficult to do experimentations on the whole corpus. These experimenta

Human papillomavirus vaccine efficacy against invasive, HPV-positive cancers : Population-based follow-up of a cluster-randomised trial

Background Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination protects against HPV, a necessary risk factor for cervical cancer. We now report results from population-based follow-up of randomised cohorts that vaccination provides HPV-type-specific protection against invasive cancer. Methods Individually and/or cluster randomised cohorts of HPV-vaccinated and non-vaccinated women were enrolled in 2002-2005. H

Response of an Afro-Palearctic bird migrant to glaciation cycles

Migration allows animals to exploit spatially separated and seasonally available resources at a continental to global scale. However, responding to global climatic changes might prove challenging, especially for long-distance intercontinental migrants. During glacial periods, when conditions became too harsh for breeding in the north, avian migrants have been hypothesized to retract their distribu

GWAS in people of Middle Eastern descent reveals a locus protective of kidney function-a cross-sectional study

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes is one of the leading causes of chronic kidney failure, which increases globally and represents a significant threat to public health. People from the Middle East represent one of the largest immigrant groups in Europe today. Despite poor glucose regulation and high risk for early-onset insulin-deficient type 2 diabetes, they have better kidney function and lower rates

Insulin action and secretion independent of traditional risk factors predict new-onset type 2 diabetes in Iraqi and Swedish born citizens - The MEDIM cohort study

AIMS: Our aim was to study the incidence of type 2 diabetes in a population-based cohort of Swedish and Iraqi born individuals, focussing on traditional risk factors, insulin action, insulin secretion and ethnicity.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cohort consisted of 1164 Iraqi and 693 Swedish-born citizens. We investigated the association between new-onset type 2 diabetes and the predictors including l

The role of initial and gradual trust in growing and unlocking regional industrial specialisations

Regional development is a dynamic process where relatively stable periods are interrupted by phases of more rapid transformation and disruption. Such dynamics are heavily influenced by the scope and nature of knowledge networks. Trust is a key mechanism influencing the mobilisation of networks for learning and innovation and thereby an important factor for understanding regional development. This

The Sustainability Implications of Single Occupancy Households

Single occupancy households consume more resources per capita, and demographics suggest single occupancy is now widespread in many countries. Environmental policies need to adjust to include per capita consumption to account for occupancy and efficient use of resources. Diana Ivanova, Tullia Jack, Milena Büchs and Kirsten Gram-Hanssen explain how the sharing of resources at domestic, neighbourhood

The symplectic geometry of higher Auslander algebras: Symmetric products of disks

We show that the perfect derived categories of Iyama’s d-dimensional Auslander algebras of type A are equivalent to the partially wrapped Fukaya categories of the d-fold symmetric product of the 2-dimensional unit disk with finitely many stops on its boundary. Furthermore, we observe that Koszul duality provides an equivalence between the partially wrapped Fukaya categories associated to the d-fol

Higher Auslander algebras of type A and the higher Waldhausen S-constructions

These notes are an expanded version of my talk at the ICRA 2018 in Prague, Czech Republic; they are based on joint work with Tobias Dyckerhoff and Tashi Walde. In them we relate Iyama's higher Auslander algebras of type A to Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces in algebraic topology and to higher-dimensional versions of the Waldhausen S-construction from algebraic K-theory.

Simplicial structures in higher Auslander-Reiten theory

We develop a novel combinatorial perspective on the higher Auslander algebras of type A, a family of algebras arising in the context of Iyama's higher Auslander–Reiten theory. This approach reveals interesting simplicial structures hidden within the representation theory of these algebras and establishes direct connections to Eilenberg–MacLane spaces and higher-dimensional versions of Waldhausen's

Higher Nakayama algebras I : Construction

We introduce higher dimensional analogues of the Nakayama algebras from the viewpoint of Iyama's higher Auslander–Reiten theory. More precisely, for each Nakayama algebra A and each positive integer d, we construct a finite dimensional algebra A(d) having a distinguished d-cluster-tilting -module whose endomorphism algebra is a higher dimensional analogue of the Auslander algebra of A. We also con
