First measurement of the helicity asymmetry E in eta photoproduction on the proton
Results are presented for the first measurement of the double-polarization helicity asymmetry E for the eta photoproduction reaction gamma p - \u3e eta p. Data were obtained using the FROzen Spin Target (FROST) with the CLAS spectrometer in Hall B at Jefferson Lab, covering a range of center-of-mass energy W from threshold to 2.15 GeV and a large range in center-of-mass polar angle. As an initial application of these data, the results have been incorporated into the Julich-Bonn model to examine the case for the existence of a narrow N* resonance between 1.66 and 1.70 GeV. The addition of these data to the world database results in marked changes in the predictions for the Eobservable from that model. Further comparison with several theoretical approaches indicates these data will significantly enhance our understanding of nucleon resonances. (C) 2016 Published by Elsevier B.V

Predictive Process Monitoring Methods: Which One Suits Me Best?
Predictive process monitoring has recently gained traction in academia and is
maturing also in companies. However, with the growing body of research, it
might be daunting for companies to navigate in this domain in order to find,
provided certain data, what can be predicted and what methods to use. The main
objective of this paper is developing a value-driven framework for classifying
existing work on predictive process monitoring. This objective is achieved by
systematically identifying, categorizing, and analyzing existing approaches for
predictive process monitoring. The review is then used to develop a
value-driven framework that can support organizations to navigate in the
predictive process monitoring field and help them to find value and exploit the
opportunities enabled by these analysis techniques
XNAP: Making LSTM-based Next Activity Predictions Explainable by Using LRP
Predictive business process monitoring (PBPM) is a class of techniques
designed to predict behaviour, such as next activities, in running traces. PBPM
techniques aim to improve process performance by providing predictions to
process analysts, supporting them in their decision making. However, the PBPM
techniques` limited predictive quality was considered as the essential obstacle
for establishing such techniques in practice. With the use of deep neural
networks (DNNs), the techniques` predictive quality could be improved for tasks
like the next activity prediction. While DNNs achieve a promising predictive
quality, they still lack comprehensibility due to their hierarchical approach
of learning representations. Nevertheless, process analysts need to comprehend
the cause of a prediction to identify intervention mechanisms that might affect
the decision making to secure process performance. In this paper, we propose
XNAP, the first explainable, DNN-based PBPM technique for the next activity
prediction. XNAP integrates a layer-wise relevance propagation method from the
field of explainable artificial intelligence to make predictions of a long
short-term memory DNN explainable by providing relevance values for activities.
We show the benefit of our approach through two real-life event logs
First Results from The GlueX Experiment
The GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab ran with its first commissioning beam
in late 2014 and the spring of 2015. Data were collected on both plastic and
liquid hydrogen targets, and much of the detector has been commissioned. All of
the detector systems are now performing at or near design specifications and
events are being fully reconstructed, including exclusive production of
, and mesons. Linearly-polarized photons were
successfully produced through coherent bremsstrahlung and polarization transfer
to the has been observed.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, Invited contribution to the Hadron 2015

Высокочувствительное сканирование генных мутаций: зонды TaqMan как блокирующие агенты
DNA Melting Analysis is very effective in clinical DNA diagnostics: it is simple to perform, high throughput, labor-, time- and cost-effective and is implemented in the “closed tube” format minimizing the risk of samples cross-contamination. Although more sensitive than sequencing by Sanger (mutant allele detection limit is ~5 and ~15 % respectively), it, however, is inferior in this respect to some other, more laborious and expensive methods (in particular, ddPCR (digital droplet PCR)). Using the BRAF gene as a prototype, we developed the original version of the DNA melting analysis, based on the ability of TaqMan probes to hamper the primer extension reaction by Taq-polymerase. It is found that the weaker blocking effect on the mutant template, which is due to the mismatch in the probe-DNA heteroduplex, permits enriched amplification of the mutant allele and provides a significant (10-fold or more) increase in sensitivity of mutation scanning.Метод плавления ДНК весьма эффективен в клинической генодиагностике, прост в исполнении, производителен, экономичен и, кроме того, реализуется в «закрытом формате», сводящем к минимуму затраты времени, труда и риск перекрестного загрязнения образцов. Данный метод более чувствительный, чем секвенирование по Сэнгеру (предел обнаружения мутантных аллелей ~5 и ~15 % соответственно), однако уступает в этом отношении другим, более трудоемким и дорогим методам (в частности, капельной цифровой полимеразной цепной реакции (digital droplet PCR)). На гене BRAF (как прототипе) мы разработали оригинальный вариант метода плавления ДНК, основанный на способности зондов TaqMan затруднять движение Taq-полимеразы по матрице. Установлено, что эффект блокирования слабее выражен на мутантной матрице из-за присутствия в дуплексе зонд-ДНК неспаренного основания. Предложен протокол полимеразной цепной реакции, дискриминирующий амплификацию мутантных и нормальных аллелей и обеспечивающий существенное (10-кратное и более) повышение чувствительности мутационного сканирования
