    Research aim to monitoring and evaluating differences in spatial planning product that it arranged with existing conditions in Kabupaten Poso. The method was survey method with quantify analysis approach to different counts in spatial planning monitoring aspects in to three groups populations, land use, and space structures. Analysis result showed for all spatial planning monitoring aspects have very significant differences and have not relevant with spatial planning product in Kabupaten Poso condition, it also influenced by regional wide become two regions as Kabupaten Poso and Kabupaten Tojo Unauna, so spatial planning product must be totally revised

    An Empirical Study of Stochastic Variational Algorithms for the Beta Bernoulli Process

    Full text link
    Stochastic variational inference (SVI) is emerging as the most promising candidate for scaling inference in Bayesian probabilistic models to large datasets. However, the performance of these methods has been assessed primarily in the context of Bayesian topic models, particularly latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA). Deriving several new algorithms, and using synthetic, image and genomic datasets, we investigate whether the understanding gleaned from LDA applies in the setting of sparse latent factor models, specifically beta process factor analysis (BPFA). We demonstrate that the big picture is consistent: using Gibbs sampling within SVI to maintain certain posterior dependencies is extremely effective. However, we find that different posterior dependencies are important in BPFA relative to LDA. Particularly, approximations able to model intra-local variable dependence perform best.Comment: ICML, 12 pages. Volume 37: Proceedings of The 32nd International Conference on Machine Learning, 201

    Economic Consequences of Health Status: A Review of the Evidence

    The correlation between health and economic performance is extremely robust across communities and over time. Many factors exogenous to income play an important role in determining health status, including a number of geographical, environmental, and evolutionary factors. This suggests the existence of simultaneous impacts of health on wealth and wealth on health. Potential health impacts on national economic performance are explored, and some important unanswered questions are identified.health, economic growth, human capital

    Testing Broken U(1) Symmetry in a Two-Component Atomic Bose-Einstein Condensate

    Full text link
    We present a scheme for determining if the quantum state of a small trapped Bose-Einstein condensate is a state with well defined number of atoms, a Fock state, or a state with a broken U(1) gauge symmetry, a coherent state. The proposal is based on the observation of Ramsey fringes. The population difference observed in a Ramsey fringe experiment will exhibit collapse and revivals due to the mean-field interactions. The collapse and revival times depend on the relative strength of the mean-field interactions for the two components and the initial quantum state of the condensate.Comment: 20 Pages RevTex, 3 Figure

    Leadership for knowledge organizations

    Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to give some theoretical foundation to leadership function and style for managing knowledge workers whose work, by definition, is non-routine, thrives on innovation, and places a special demand on autonomy for its execution. Design/methodology/approach – Extant search of literature to look for evidence supporting successful leadership theories and practices that are shown to improve performance of knowledge workers. Synthesis of findings to structure a framework in the form of major propositions for their testing by future research. Findings – The authors begin with establishing the first finding that states that leadership of knowledge organizations is different from the leadership of traditional organizations. Then the authors build six additional findings for shaping a successful leadership process for knowledge organizations. Research limitations/implications – Since it is a theoretical paper built on a search of literature in the field of leadership, there is a need to empirically test the findings to give them their final shape. Each of the seven propositions in this paper would result into many hypotheses that should initiate several empirical studies. Practical implications – The authors consider individual and organizational/group contexts of the leadership proposed here, and also provide recommendations for carrying out this research further. While the paper is written more specifically with regard to the leadership of knowledge organizations where its findings should be fully implantable, however, to some extent, they would apply to all organizations. Social implications – Leadership is a ubiquitous social phenomenon. It affects not only organizations, but also every aspect of human activity. This paper is an attempt to alter the fundamental thinking of leaders, suggesting to not to use authority, and instead, to allow everyone connected with the task the opportunity to lead. This shift in leadership paradigm will have an impact on the behavior of all involved, and steadily, will bring a change in the norms of social behavior. Originality/value – This paper is a move toward giving the knowledge organization leadership some theoretical framework, as it is still in a state of flux in spite of attracting a lot of research

    Abstrak Hukum Islam merupakan seperangkat peraturan berdasarkan wahyu Allah swt dan sunnah rasul. Zakat secara bahasaal-barakatu’ ”keberkahan”, al-tharatu ”Kesucian” dan “al-shalahu” keberesan.secara istilahzakat adalah harta milik pribadi yang dikeberikan kepada orang yang berhak menerima ketika nishabnya sudah terpenuhi.Penelitian ini menggunakan jenis penelitian lapangan (field research).Sumber data penelitian ini adalah data primer yaitu wawancara, dandata sekunder yaitu jurnal, buku, dan referensi lainnya yang berkaitan dengan penelitian ini. Metode pengumpulan data yaitu observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian ini yaitu, pertama adalah pengumpulan, pihak BAZNAS terlebih dahulu membuat unit pengumpul zakat (UPZ).kedua adalah penyaluran, sebelum disalurkan, terlebih dahulu menyurvei setiap korbanbencana alam apakah berhak menerima zakat atau tidak.Ketentuan hukum Islam yang membagi penerima zakat menjadi delapan golongan memang tidak di sebutkan secara spesifik mengenai korban bencana alam, akan tetapi melihat dari situasi dan kondisi, korban bencana alam yang kehilangan harta benda dapat di kategorikan dalam salah satu dari delapan penerima zakat tersebut seperti fakir atau miskin. Kata Kunci: Tinjauan Hukum Islam, Penyaluran Dana Zakat , Korban bencana alamAbstract Islamic law is a set of rules based on the revelation of Allah swt and the sunnah of the apostle. Zakat is linguistically al-barakatu' "blessing", al-tharatu "purity" and "al-shalahu" in order. research). The data sources of this research are primary data, namely interviews, and secondary data, namely journals, books, and other references related to this research. Data collection methods are observation, interviews and documentation. The results of this study are, first is the collection, the BAZNAS first creates a zakat collection unit (UPZ). The second is distribution, before being distributed, first surveying each victim of natural disasters whether they are entitled to receive zakat or not. The provisions of Islamic law that divide zakat recipients into eight The group is not specifically mentioned regarding victims of natural disasters, but looking at the situation and conditions, victims of natural disasters who lose their property can be categorized as one of the eight recipients of zakat, such as the indigent or poor.
