TL;DR: In the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (GBD 2013) as discussed by the authors, the authors used the GBD 2010 methods with some refinements to improve accuracy applied to an updated database of vital registration, survey, and census data.

TL;DR: A series of improvements to the spectroscopic reductions are described, including better flat fielding and improved wavelength calibration at the blue end, better processing of objects with extremely strong narrow emission lines, and an improved determination of stellar metallicities.
Abstract: This paper describes the Seventh Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), marking the completion of the original goals of the SDSS and the end of the phase known as SDSS-II. It includes 11,663 deg^2 of imaging data, with most of the ~2000 deg^2 increment over the previous data release lying in regions of low Galactic latitude. The catalog contains five-band photometry for 357 million distinct objects. The survey also includes repeat photometry on a 120° long, 2°.5 wide stripe along the celestial equator in the Southern Galactic Cap, with some regions covered by as many as 90 individual imaging runs. We include a co-addition of the best of these data, going roughly 2 mag fainter than the main survey over 250 deg^2. The survey has completed spectroscopy over 9380 deg^2; the spectroscopy is now complete over a large contiguous area of the Northern Galactic Cap, closing the gap that was present in previous data releases. There are over 1.6 million spectra in total, including 930,000 galaxies, 120,000 quasars, and 460,000 stars. The data release includes improved stellar photometry at low Galactic latitude. The astrometry has all been recalibrated with the second version of the USNO CCD Astrograph Catalog, reducing the rms statistical errors at the bright end to 45 milliarcseconds per coordinate. We further quantify a systematic error in bright galaxy photometry due to poor sky determination; this problem is less severe than previously reported for the majority of galaxies. Finally, we describe a series of improvements to the spectroscopic reductions, including better flat fielding and improved wavelength calibration at the blue end, better processing of objects with extremely strong narrow emission lines, and an improved determination of stellar metallicities.

TL;DR: In this article, a second order algorithm for finding points on a steepest descent path from the transition state of the reactants and products is presented. But the points are optimized so that the segment of the reaction path between any two adjacent points is given by an arc of a circle, and the gradient at each point is tangent to the path.
Abstract: A new algorithm is presented for obtaining points on a steepest descent path from the transition state of the reactants and products. In mass‐weighted coordinates, this path corresponds to the intrinsic reaction coordinate. Points on the reaction path are found by constrained optimizations involving all internal degrees of freedom of the molecule. The points are optimized so that the segment of the reaction path between any two adjacent points is given by an arc of a circle, and so that the gradient at each point is tangent to the path. Only the transition vector and the energy gradients are needed to construct the path. The resulting path is continuous, differentiable and piecewise quadratic. In the limit of small step size, the present algorithm is shown to take a step with the correct tangent vector and curvature vector; hence, it is a second order algorithm. The method has been tested on the following reactions: HCN→CNH, SiH2+H2→SiH4, CH4+H→CH3+H2, F−+CH3F→FCH3+F−, and C2H5F→C2H4+HF. Reaction paths calculated with a step size of 0.4 a.u. are almost identical to those computed with a step size of 0.1 a.u. or smaller.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended their previous algorithm for following reaction paths downhill to use mass-weighted internal coordinates, which has the correct tangent vector and curvature vectors in the limit or small step size but requires only the transition vector and the energy gradients.
Abstract: Our previous algorithm for following reaction paths downhill (J. Chem. Phys. 1989, 90, 2154), has been extended to use mass-weighted internal coordinates. Points on the reaction path are round by constrained optimizations involving the internal degrees or freedom or the molecule. The points are optimized so that the segment or the reaction path between any two adjacent points is described by an arc or a circle in mass-weighted internal coordinates, and so that the gradients (in mass-weighted internals) at the end points or the arc are tangent to the path. The algorithm has the correct tangent vector and curvature vectors in the limit or small step size but requires only the transition vector and the energy gradients; the resulting path is continuous, differentiable, and piecewise quadratic
