- Description:
- Our work seeks to better understand the financial risks to corporate operations as a basis for exploring alternative public-private investment strategies. We applied network analysis to model financial relationships within this sector and its connectedness to primary commodities transported on the Great Lakes. The financial network maps were used to quantitatively analyze the industry risk exposure using corporate financial metrics and to query the financial interdependencies of companies relative to the Great Lakes waterway. Results demonstrate that inventory turnover ratio is a robust proxy to quantify weighted financial risks of water dependency across the entire supply chain network. All data was manually collected from the Bloomberg Terminal and FactSet which are licensed by the University of Michigan. The SPLC module in the Terminal restricts data download and information must be captured manually. All data was collected from September-November 2018.

- Description:
- The study that produced this corpus was conducted by a joint Task Force on Career Progression charged by the Association of University Presses and Society for Scholarly Publishing in January 2022, and strengthened by the addition of the Association of Learned Professional and Scholarly Publishers in 2023. The goal of the Career Progression Task Force’s job classification project was to develop a dataset of job descriptions that identify typical skills and responsibilities associated with various roles in publishing, analysing these descriptions to elucidate the skills and qualifications needed for the jobs and career advancement and disseminate the results in a way that is useful to employers and employees alike. The work of the Task Force was made possible by the doctoral internship program at the University of Michigan's Rackham Graduate School, which supported the involvement of Michelle Lam and Lauretta Cheng. The project also involved master’s degree students at George Washington University and the University of Michigan. and In total, the corpus contained 1089 unique job description texts. A wide range/variety of positions (n=666) across functional areas were represented in the corpus. The majority of the texts came from publicly available job postings. This form of text is created to advertise positions and is typically neither as detailed nor as objective as internal position descriptions, which were contributed either individually or as a group from a particular publisher.

Supporting data: Domain-agnostic predictions of nanoscale interactions in proteins and nanoparticles
- Creator:
- Saldinger, Jacob, Raymond, Matt , Elvati, Paolo, and Violi, Angela
- Description:
- The accurate and rapid prediction of generic nanoscale interactions is a challenging problem with broad applications. Much of biology functions at the nanoscale, and our ability to manipulate materials and purposefully engage biological machinery requires knowledge of nano-bio interfaces. While several protein-protein interaction models are available, they leverage protein-specific information, limiting their abstraction to other structures. Here, we present NeCLAS, a general, and rapid machine learning pipeline that predicts the location of nanoscale interactions, providing human-intelligible predictions. Two key aspects distinguish NeCLAS: coarse-grained representations, and the use of environmental features to encode the chemical neighborhood. We showcase NeCLAS with challenges for protein-protein, protein-nanoparticle and nanoparticle-nanoparticle systems, demonstrating that NeCLAS replicates computationally- and experimentally-observed interactions. NeCLAS outperforms current nanoscale prediction models, and it shows cross-domain validity, qualifying as a tool for basic research, rapid prototyping, and design of nanostructures., Software: - To reproduce all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) NAMD is required (version 2.14 or later is suggested). NAMD software and documentation can be found at https://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/, - To reproduce coarse-grained MD simulations, LAMMPS (version 29 Sep 2021 - Update 2 or later is suggested). LAMMPS software and documentation can be found at https://www.lammps.org, - To rebuild free energy profiles, the PLUMED plugin (version 2.6) was used.

- Description:
- As discussion and debates on the digital humanities continue among scholars, so too does discussion about how academic libraries can and should support this scholarship. Through interviews with digital humanities scholars and academic librarians within the Center for Institutional Cooperation, this study aims to explore some points of common perspective and underlying tensions in research relationships. Qualitative interviews revealed that, while both groups are enthusiastic about the future of faculty-librarian collaboration on digital scholarship, there remain certain tensions about the role of the library and the librarian. Scholars appreciate the specialized expertise of librarians, especially in metadata and special collections, but they can take a more active stance in utilizing current library resources or vocalizing their needs for other resources. This expertise and these services can be leveraged to make the library an active and equal partner in research. Additionally, libraries should address internal issues, such as training and re-skilling librarians as necessary; better-coordinated outreach to academic departments is also needed.

- Description:
- Low-velocity accretionary wedges and sedimentary layers overlaying continental plates are widely observed in the subduction zones where historical large earthquakes have occurred. It was observed that rupture of the 2011 Mw 9.0 Tohoku-Oki earthquake propagated to the trench with large coseismic slip on the shallow fault, but what caused the huge shallow slip remains a prominent problem., Here we explore how the two low-velocity structures, accretionary wedge and sedimentary layer, affect the coseismic slip and near-fault ground motions during the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake. Constrained by the observed seafloor deformation, we present a 2-D dynamic rupture model of the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake with an accretionary wedge and a sedimentary layer. Compared to a homogeneous model with the same friction and stress parameters on the fault, we find that the co-existence of the accretionary wedge and sedimentary layer significantly enhances the shallow coseismic slip and amplifies ground accelerations near the accretionary wedge. We then investigate a plausible scenario of a smaller Tohoku-Oki earthquake when its rupture does not reach the accretionary wedge. The sedimentary layer slightly enhances the coseismic slip while the accretionary wedge has almost no influence for the smaller earthquake scenario, but both structures significantly amplify the ground accelerations on the overriding plate. , and By simulating a suite of earthquake scenarios, we suggest that the co-existence of an accretionary wedge and sedimentary layers tend to enhance coseismic slip, but the enhancement effect decreases as the up-dip limit of rupture zones terminates at a larger depth. The numerical simulations were solved using SEM2DPACK _2.3.8 ( http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/sem2d/), and simulation results were visualized by Matlab. This folder includes the input files to reproduce our simulation results and plot scripts.

- Description:
- 1.5 years of Polar UVI data was used to construct the Feature Tracking empirical model of Auroral Precipitation (FTA). A cumulative energy grid was tracked with the energy flux and the latitude position in each MLT bin for individual images. The auroral characteristics show linear relationships with the AE index depending on the MLT region. Thus, the FTA model was constructed to describe the global energy flux and the averaged energy as a function of the AE index based on the LBHl and LBHs emissions. Compared with two other empirical models, FTA predicted more consistent aurora with the observations on 17 March 2013 at higher activity levels.

- The data were used to create number density functions of supermassive black holes (SMBH) for redshifts 0.5 < z < 3.0. The goal of this research is to discern whether galaxy-black hole scaling relations produce black hole masses that are consistent with each other at high redshift. These number density functions were used to compare the high-mass SMBH distributions from each relation. In massive black hole binary based models, the highest-mass SMBHs have a significant influence on the gravitational wave background characteristic strain amplitude. To inform our understanding of the gravitational wave background, that pulsar timing arrays now show evidence for, we need to therefore have a solid foundation on the underlying SMBH population. In our paper we found that using different galaxy properties to inform our estimations of SMBH mass resulted in different distributions, especially at the high-mass end.

- The Lannang Corpus (LanCorp) is a sociolinguistic POS-tagged 375,000-word speech-and-text corpus of Lannang languages based on audio recordings collected in metropolitan Manila between 2016 and 2020. It hopes to furnish scholars interested in Sino-Philippine (socio)linguistics with a contemporary, multilingual corpus (i.e., Hokkien, Tagalog, English, Lánnang-uè, Mandarin) compiled using recorded oral data primarily collected from a Sino-Philippine community in metropolitan Manila by the community: the Manila Lannangs. The publicly available corpus contains manual transcriptions (time-aligned to the audio), source language and part-of-speech tags derived using a mix of manual and computational methods, and a wide range of social metadata; it is also organized and stored systematically for easy data retrieval and (socio)linguistic analysis. Although there are existing sociolinguistic corpora, they are small in scale and were not released publicly due to lack of informant consent – LanCorp readily fills the gap.

- Description:
- The rapid increases in solar wind dynamic pressure, termed sudden impulses (SIs), compress Earth’s dayside magnetosphere and strongly perturb the coupled Magnetosphere-Ionosphere (M-I) system. The compression of the dayside magnetosphere launches magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves, which propagate down to the ionosphere, changing the Auroral Field Aligned Currents (FACs), and into nightside magnetosphere. The global response to the compression front sweeping through the coupled system is not yet fully understood due to the sparseness of the measurements, especially those with the necessary time resolution to resolve the propagating disturbances. That’s why a study including modeling is necessary. On 15 August 2015 at 7.44 UT, Advanced Composition Explorer measured a sudden increase in the solar wind dynamic pressure from 1.11 nPa to 2.55 nPa as shown in Figure-1. We use the magnetospheric spacecraft in the equatorial magnetosphere to identify the signatures of magnetosphere response to this SI event and examine the interaction of the propagating disturbances with the M-I system. With the increased time resolution of Active Magnetosphere and Polar Electrodynamics Response Experiment (AMPERE), the FAC pattern and intensity change due to SI can also be studied in more depth. We further use measurements from ground based magnetometer stations to increase our tracking capability for the disturbances in the ionosphere and to improve our understanding of their propagation characteristics. This is the first step in a comprehensive multi-point observation and a global magnetohydrodynamic simulation based investigation of the response of the coupled M-I system to sudden impulses.

- Description:
- This dataset supports the findings of Hille et al. (2021, in review) in Geophysical Research Letters. In this article, we present a multivariate analysis of extreme storm events that occur during the Indian summer monsoon over the Himalayan Range in central Nepal. We resolve storm events at sub daily durations by merging NASA’s Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) 30-minute, gridded 0.1x0.1-degree precipitation product with local rain gauges operated by the Nepal Department of Hydrology and Meteorology (DHM) and the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD). We quantify spatial variability in extreme rainfall by isolating storms over a specific intensity threshold and pairing a principal components analysis with a K-means clustering approach to group storms of similar characteristics. and We find that frequent and intense storms occur over the forefront of the central Himalayan range and coincide with a locus of monsoon-driven landslide density. This pattern agrees with observations of elevated annual precipitation volumes near the Himalayan physiographic transition from low to high relief (Bookhagen and Burbank, 2010), and is consistent with orographically-influenced rainfall over other mountain ranges (Marra et al., 2021). In addition to presenting novel methodology to quantifying storm variability, our results highlight the strong orographic effect on precipitation intensity and duration, as well as an association of shallow bedrock landsliding frequency with intense precipitation.

- Description:
- The sharing economy has quickly become a very prominent subject of research in the broader computing literature and the in human–computer interaction (HCI) literature more specifically. When other computing research areas have experienced similarly rapid growth (e.g. human computation, eco-feedback technology), early stage literature reviews have proved useful and influential by identifying trends and gaps in the literature of interest and by providing key directions for short- and long-term future work. In this paper, we seek to provide the same benefits with respect to computing research on the sharing economy. Specifically, following the suggested approach of prior computing literature reviews, we conducted a systematic review of sharing economy articles published in the Association for Computing Machinery Digital Library to investigate the state of sharing economy research in computing. We performed this review with two simultaneous foci: a broad focus toward the computing literature more generally and a narrow focus specifically on HCI literature. We collected a total of 112 sharing economy articles published between 2008 and 2017 and through our analysis of these papers, we make two core contributions: (1) an understanding of the computing community’s contributions to our knowledge about the sharing economy, and specifically the role of the HCI community in these contributions (i.e. what has been done) and (2) a discussion of under-explored and unexplored aspects of the sharing economy that can serve as a partial research agenda moving forward (i.e. what is next to do).

- Description:
- Rapid eye movement sleep (REM) is believed to have a binary temporal structure with “phasic” and “tonic" microstates, characterized by motoric activity versus quiescence, respectively. However, we observed in mice that the frequency of theta activity (a marker of rodent REM) fluctuates in a non-binary fashion, with the extremes of that fluctuation correlating with phasic-type and tonic-type facial motricity. Thus, phasic and tonic REM may instead represent ends of a continuum. These cycles of brain physiology and facial movement occurred at 0.01-0.06 Hz, or infraslow frequencies, and affected cross-frequency coupling and neuronal activity in the neocortex, suggesting network functional impact. We then analyzed human data and observed that humans also demonstrate non-binary phasic/tonic microstates, with continuous 0.01-0.04 Hz respiratory rate cycles matching the incidence of eye movements. These fundamental properties of REM can yield new insights into our understanding of sleep health.

- This is a large scale, long-term autonomy dataset for robotics research collected on the University of Michigan’s North Campus. The dataset consists of omnidirectional imagery, 3D lidar, planar lidar, GPS, and proprioceptive sensors for odometry collected using a Segway robot. The dataset was collected to facilitate research focusing on longterm autonomous operation in changing environments. The dataset is comprised of 27 sessions spaced approximately biweekly over the course of 15 months. The sessions repeatedly explore the campus, both indoors and outdoors, on varying trajectories, and at different times of the day across all four seasons. This allows the dataset to capture many challenging elements including: moving obstacles (e.g., pedestrians, bicyclists, and cars), changing lighting, varying viewpoint, seasonal and weather changes (e.g., falling leaves and snow), and long-term structural changes caused by construction projects. To further facilitate research, we also provide ground-truth pose for all sessions in a single frame of reference. and A detailed description of the dataset and the methods used to generate it is in the document nclt.pdf.

- These manikins represent body shape models for children weighing 9 to 23 kg in a seated posture relevant to child restraint design. The design of child restraints is guided in part by anthropometric data describing the distributions of body dimensions of children. However, three-dimensional body shape data have not been available for children younger than three years of age. These manikins will be useful for assessing child accommodation in restraints. The SBSM can also provide guidance for the development of anthropomorphic test devices and computational models of child occupants. The sampled manikins were predicted for a range of torso length and body weight dimensions. The SBSM model was exercised for two torso lengths and nine body weights to obtain 18 body shapes. The 3D shape models can be downloaded in a standard mesh format (PLY). Each body shape is accompanied by predicted landmark locations and standard anthropometric variables.
