Personalized System of Instruction (PSI), or Keller Plan, Materials
Fifteen experienced Keller Plan physicists gathered on the University of Colorado Boulder campus in the summer of 1975 to create a complete Keller Plan course for calculus-based physics. After three weeks, the original drafts, almost 1100 pages, were completed and the authors scattered to their places of employment. This poster tells stories about these module authors since 1975 and how the calculus-based physics modules were used.
Domain Structure And Polarization Reversal In Ferroelectrics Studied By Atomic Force Microscopy, Alexei Gruverman, O. Kolosov, J. Hatano, K. Takahashi, H. Tokumoto
Domain Structure And Polarization Reversal In Ferroelectrics Studied By Atomic Force Microscopy, Alexei Gruverman, O. Kolosov, J. Hatano, K. Takahashi, H. Tokumoto
Alexei Gruverman Publications
The ferroelectric domain structure and its dynamics under applied electric field have been studied with nanoscale resolution by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Two mechanisms responsible for the contrast between opposite domains are proposed: large built-in domains are delineated in friction mode due to the tip–sample electrostatic interaction, and small domains created by an external field are imaged in topography mode due to piezoelectric deformation of the crystal. The ability of effective control of ferroelectric domains by applying a voltage between the AFM tip and the bottom electrode is demonstrated. It is experimentally confirmed that the sidewise growth of domain proceeds …

Bibliography Of Studies In Electron Transmission Spectroscopy, Paul Burrow
Paul Burrow Publications
A variety of techniques can be used to locate temporary negative ion states in atoms and molecules. One of the most efficient methods passes an electron beam through a gas cell and observes structure appearing in the attenuated “transmitted” electron current as a function of the electron energy. In 1971 L. Sanche and G.J. Schulz introduced a scheme whereby the derivative with respect to energy of the transmitted current was measured. Combining this with the trochoidal electron monochromator devised by A. Stamatovic and G.J. Schulz in 1968 produced a compact, sensitive and easily used apparatus for the detection of short-lived …

Characterizing Moisture Regimes For Assessing Fuel Availability In North Carolina Vegetation Communities, Roberta A. Bartlette, James Reardon, Gary M. Curcio
JFSP Research Project Reports
In the southeastern United States prescription burning, fire danger rating and wildfire suppression strategies are constrained by limited knowledge of the influence of moisture content in live vegetation, organic soils, water table and weather. The interactive influence of these factors on fire behavior is not well studied. The 3+ year long study reported here was conducted to gain direct empirical understanding of seasonal fuel and soil moisture dynamics in shrub-dominated pocosin communities, in coastal Virginia and North Carolina, mixed hardwoods communities containing significant laurel and rhododendron understory fuels in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee, and longleaf pine communities in …
Fuel Reduction And Restoration Of Pine/Hardwood Ecosystems Severely Impacted By The Recent Southern Pine Beetle (Dendroctonus Frontalis) Epidemic In The Southern Appalachians, James M. Vose, Katherine J. Elliott
Fuel Reduction And Restoration Of Pine/Hardwood Ecosystems Severely Impacted By The Recent Southern Pine Beetle (Dendroctonus Frontalis) Epidemic In The Southern Appalachians, James M. Vose, Katherine J. Elliott
JFSP Research Project Reports
As a result of this most recent SPB epidemic (1999-2003), thousands of hectares of dead pine trees have created wildfire-hazard conditions in the southern Appalachians. One of the challenges for land managers is how to return fire to these ecosystems after (1) nearly a decade of exclusion, and (2) the more recent SPB mortality enhanced fuel loads. Higher fuel loads have the potential to increase fire intensity and severity. At the extremes, fires of high intensity and severity can have a large effect on ecosystem structure and function. The objectives of our research were: (1) to quantify fuel load reduction …

Yale School of the Environment Publications Series
The need to control sprawl, encourage Smart Growth, and create more livable neighborhoods that instill a sense of community through traditional neighborhood design, are topics in the forefront of national discussions about community planning and development. There is an innovative land use technique that can be used by communities to manage and define future growth in a way that creates more livable places, places that are environmentally, socially, and fiscally sound. Specifically, a community may designate mixed-use Priority Growth Districts, or PGDs, which direct development to selected locations and also specify a design that is attractive to the community’s current …

Penalty Approximation And Analytical Characterization Of The Problem Of Super-Replication Under Portfolio Constraints, Alain Bensoussan, Nizar Touzi, José Luis Menaldi
Penalty Approximation And Analytical Characterization Of The Problem Of Super-Replication Under Portfolio Constraints, Alain Bensoussan, Nizar Touzi, José Luis Menaldi
Mathematics Faculty Research Publications
In this paper, we consider the problem of super-replication under portfolio constraints in a Markov framework. More specifically, we assume that the portfolio is restricted to lie in a convex subset, and we show that the super-replication value is the smallest function which lies above the Black-Scholes price function and which is stable for the so-called face lifting operator. A natural approach to this problem is the penalty approximation, which not only provides a constructive smooth approximation, but also a way to proceed analytically.
Assimilation Of Simulated Float Data In Lagrangian Coordinates, J. L. Mead
Assimilation Of Simulated Float Data In Lagrangian Coordinates, J. L. Mead
Mathematics Faculty Publications and Presentations
We implement an approach for the accurate assimilation of Lagrangian data into regional general ocean circulation models. The forward model is expressed in Lagrangian coordinates and simulated float data are incorporated into the model via four dimensional variational data assimilation. We show that forward solutions computed in Lagrangian coordinates are reliable for time periods of up to 100 days with phase speeds of 1 m/s and deformation radius of 35 km. The position and depth of simulated floats are assimilated into the viscous, Lagrangian shallow water equations. The weights for the errors in the model and data are varied and …
Combining Local And Global Image Features For Object Class Recognition, Dimitri Lisin, Marwan Mattar, Matthew Blaschko, Mark Benfield, Erik Learned-Miller
Combining Local And Global Image Features For Object Class Recognition, Dimitri Lisin, Marwan Mattar, Matthew Blaschko, Mark Benfield, Erik Learned-Miller
Erik G Learned-Miller
Object recognition is a central problem in computer vision research. Most object recognition systems have taken one of two approaches, using either global or local features exclusively. This may be in part due to the difficulty of combining a single global feature vector with a set of local features in a suitable manner. In this paper, we show that combining local and global features is beneficial in an application where rough segmentations of objects are available. We present a method for classification with local features using non-parametric density estimation. Subsequently, we present two methods for combining local and global features. …

Many Heads Are Better Than One: Jointly Removing Bias From Multiple Mris Using Nonparametric Maximum Likelihood, Erik Learned-Miller, Vidit Jain
Erik G Learned-Miller
The correction of multiplicative bias in magnetic resonance images is an important problem in medical image processing, especially as a preprocessing step for quantitative measurements and other numerical procedures. Most previous approaches have used a maximum likelihood method to increase the probability of the pixels in a single image by adaptively estimating a correction to the unknown image bias field. The pixel probabilities are defined either in terms of a pre-existing tissue model, or nonparametrically in terms of the image's own pixel values. In both cases, the specific location of a pixel in the image does not influence the probability …

Learning Hyper-Features For Visual Identification, Andras Ferencz, Erik Learned-Miller, Jitendra Malik
Erik G Learned-Miller
We address the problem of identifying specific instances of a class (cars) from a set of images all belonging to that class. Although we cannot build a model for any particular instance (as we may be provided with only one “training ” example of it), we can use information extracted from observing other members of the class. We pose this task as a learning problem, in which the learner is given image pairs, labeled as matching or not, and must discover which image features are most consistent for matching instances and discriminative for mismatches. We explore a patch based representation, …
Weak Correlations Between Local Density And Dynamics Near The Glass Transition, J. Conrad, Francis Starr, D. Weitz
Weak Correlations Between Local Density And Dynamics Near The Glass Transition, J. Conrad, Francis Starr, D. Weitz
Francis Starr
We perform experiments on two different dense colloidal suspensions with confocal microscopy to probe the relationship between local structure and dynamics near the glass transition. We calculate the Voronoi volume for our particles and show that this quantity is not a universal probe of glassy structure for all colloidal suspensions. We correlate the Voronoi volume to displacement and find that these quantities are only weakly correlated. We observe qualitatively similar results in a simulation of a polymer melt. These results suggest that the Voronoi volume does not predict dynamical behavior in experimental colloidal suspensions; a purely structural approach based on …
