Early signs of dyslexia from the speech and language processing of children
2009
The Jyvaskyla Longitudinal Study of Dyslexia project (JLD) has followed the development of 200 children from birth until 10 years of age. Half the children are from families in which at least one of the parents has dyslexia, thus the child has a high risk of becoming dyslexic, and half have no such risk. Here the main findings of four studies in linguistics from the JLD project are reviewed. The speech processing skills were studied in 6, 18, 24 and 30-month-old children. The findings show that early signs of dyslexia can be detected in speech processing both phonologically and morphosyntactically. These precursors can be seen in perception or production of duration, in the prosody and phon…
Analytic gradients for the state-specific multireference coupled cluster singles and doubles model.
2009
The general theory of analytic energy gradients is presented for the state-specific multireference coupled cluster method introduced by Mukherjee and co-workers [Mol. Phys. 94, 157 (1998)], together with an implementation within the singles and doubles approximation, restricted to two closed-shell determinants and Hartree-Fock orbitals. Expressions for the energy gradient are derived based on a Lagrangian formalism and cast in a density-matrix notation suitable for implementation in standard quantum-chemical program packages. In the present implementation, we exploit a decomposition of the multireference coupled cluster gradient expressions, i.e., lambda equations and the corresponding dens…
Measurement of trace impurities in ultra pure hydrogen and deuterium at the parts-per-billion level using gas chromatography
2018
Abstract A series of muon experiments at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland deploy ultra-pure hydrogen active targets. A new gas impurity analysis technique was developed, based on conventional gas chromatography, with the capability to measure part-per-billion (ppb) traces of nitrogen and oxygen in hydrogen and deuterium. Key ingredients are a cryogenic admixture accumulation, a directly connected sampling system and a dedicated calibration setup. The dependence of the measured concentration on the sample volume was investigated, confirming that all impurities from the sample gas are collected in the accumulation column and measured with the gas chromatograph. The system was calibr…
Theories relating baryon asymmetry and dark matter
2014
The nature of dark matter and the origin of the baryon asymmetry are two of the deepest mysteries of modern particle physics. In the absence of hints regarding a possible solution to these mysteries, many approaches have been developed to tackle them simultaneously leading to very diverse and rich models. We give a short review where we describe the general features of some of these models and an overview on the general problem. We also propose a diagrammatic notation to label the different models.
In Search of Pathogens: Transcriptome-Based Identification of Viral Sequences from the Pine Processionary Moth (Thaumetopoea pityocampa)
2015
Thaumetopoea pityocampa (pine processionary moth) is one of the most important pine pests in the forests of Mediterranean countries, Central Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Apart from causing significant damage to pinewoods, T. pityocampa occurrence is also an issue for public and animal health, as it is responsible for dermatological reactions in humans and animals by contact with its irritating hairs. High throughput sequencing technologies have allowed the fast and cost-effective generation of genetic information of interest to understand different biological aspects of non-model organisms as well as the identification of potential pathogens. Using these technologies, we have o…

The design and implementation of Neuma, a collaborative Digital Scores Library - Requirements, architecture, and models
2012
This paper presents the design and implementation of the Neuma platform, a digital library devoted to the preservation and dissemination of symbolic music content (scores). Neuma is open to musicologists, musicians, and music publishers. It consists of a repository dedicated to the storage of large collections of digital scores, where users/applications can upload their documents. It also proposes services to publish, annotate, query, transform, and analyze scores. The long-term goal of the project is to enable an open and collaborative space where musician communities will be able to share music in symbolic notation. The project is organized around the French IRPMF institute (BnF–CNRS) whi…
Data from: Chironomus riparius (Diptera) genome sequencing reveals the impact of minisatellite transposable elements on population divergence
2017
Active transposable elements (TEs) may result in divergent genomic insertion and abundance patterns among conspecific populations. Upon secondary contact, such divergent genetic backgrounds can theoretically give rise to classical Dobzhansky-Muller incompatibilities (DMI), thus contributing to the evolution of endogenous genetic barriers and eventually cause population divergence. We investigated differential TE abundance among conspecific populations of the non-biting midge Chironomus riparius and evaluated their potential role in causing endogenous genetic incompatibilities between these populations. We focussed on a Chironomus-specific TE, the minisatellite-like Cla-element, whose activi…
Construction of decision support system in business design based on integration of information technology
2016
In an increasingly competitive environment the successful functioning of any business requires continuous improvement of services, expanding the range of products and range of services, standardization, and implementation of new busines ideas, establishment and dissemination of innovative solutions on the market. The implementation of such measures were carried out in a well-developed business projects. Automating business processes often requires the organization of various programs, which creates a problem of integration. The paper attempts to organizations handling business processes through the integration of various software tools. One of the major component due implementing business p…
