TL;DR: It is recommended that given the growing difficulties in maintaining an operant-respondent dichotomy, rather than admitting adjunctive behavior into either of these categories, research efforts should de-emphasize preconceived and outdated notions about categories of behavior and how such behaviors should behave and instead focus on mapping functional relationships between behavior and various procedures for presenting non-contingent stimuli.

TL;DR: In this paper, the dependence of active nucleation site density on boiling surface conditions is developed in a form of N = N · φ(β) · ε(r), where ϵ(n) is the average cavity density.

Abstract: Physics Education Research (PER) practitioners have engaged in substantial curriculum development and dissemination work in recent years. Yet, it appears that this work has had minimal influence on the fundamental teaching practices of the typical physics faculty. To better understand this situation, interviews were conducted with five likely users of physics education research. All reported making changes in their instructional practices and all were influenced, to some extent, by educational research. Yet, none made full use of educational research and most had complaints about their interactions with educational researchers. In this paper we examine how these instructors used educational research in making instructional decisions and identify divergent expectations about how researchers and faculty can work together to improve student learning. Although different instructors emphasized different aspects of this discrepancy between expectations, we believe that they are all related to a single underlyin...

TL;DR: This chapter surveys the very recent research development on privacy preserving publishing of graphs and social network data, and categorizes the state-of-the-art anonymization methods on simple graphs in three main categories: K-anonymity based privacy Preservation via edge modification, probabilistic privacy preservation via edge randomization, and privacy preservation through generalization.
Abstract: Social networks have received dramatic interest in research and development. In this chapter, we survey the very recent research development on privacypreserving publishing of graphs and social network data. We categorize the state-of-the-art anonymization methods on simple graphs in three main categories: K-anonymity based privacy preservation via edge modification, probabilistic privacy preservation via edge randomization, and privacy preservation via generalization. We then review anonymization methods on rich graphs. We finally discuss challenges and propose new research directions in this area.

TL;DR: This paper investigated lncRNA-disease associations from a network view to understand the contribution of these lncRNAs to complex diseases, and constructed a coding-non-coding gene-Disease bipartite network based on known associations between diseases and disease-causing genes.
Abstract: Increasing evidence has indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in and associated with many complex human diseases. Despite of the accumulation of lncRNA-disease associations, only a few studies had studied the roles of these associations in pathogenesis. In this paper, we investigated lncRNA-disease associations from a network view to understand the contribution of these lncRNAs to complex diseases. Specifically, we studied both the properties of the diseases in which the lncRNAs were implicated, and that of the lncRNAs associated with complex diseases. Regarding the fact that protein coding genes and lncRNAs are involved in human diseases, we constructed a coding-non-coding gene-disease bipartite network based on known associations between diseases and disease-causing genes. We then applied a propagation algorithm to uncover the hidden lncRNA-disease associations in this network. The algorithm was evaluated by leave-one-out cross validation on 103 diseases in which at least two genes were known to be involved, and achieved an AUC of 0.7881. Our algorithm successfully predicted 768 potential lncRNA-disease associations between 66 lncRNAs and 193 diseases. Furthermore, our results for Alzheimer's disease, pancreatic cancer, and gastric cancer were verified by other independent studies.
