Keyword spotting for cursive document retrieval
We present one of the first attempts towards automatic retrieval of documents, in the noisy environment of unconstrained, multiple author handwritten forms. The documents were written in cursive script for which conventional OCR and text retrieval engines are not adequate. We focus on a visual word spotting indexing scheme for scanned documents housed in the Archives of the Indies in Seville, Spain. The framework presented utilizes pattern recognition, learning and information fusion methods, and is motivated from human word-spotting studies. The proposed system is described and initial results are presented

A search for resonances decaying into a Higgs boson and a new particle X in the XH→qqbb final state with the ATLAS detector
A search for heavy resonances decaying into a Higgs boson () and a new particle () is reported, utilizing 36.1 fb of proton-proton collision data at 13 TeV collected during 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The particle is assumed to decay to a pair of light quarks, and the fully hadronic final state is analysed. The search considers the regime of high resonance masses, where the and bosons are both highly Lorentz-boosted and are each reconstructed using a single jet with large radius parameter. A two-dimensional phase space of mass versus mass is scanned for evidence of a signal, over a range of resonance mass values between 1 TeV and 4 TeV, and for particles with masses from 50 GeV to 1000 GeV. All search results are consistent with the expectations for the background due to Standard Model processes, and 95% CL upper limits are set, as a function of and masses, on the production cross-section of the resonance

Ethanol in the Pacific Northwest
This factsheet provides background on ethanol as a transportation biofuel and discusses the role ethanol plays in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. This includes describing relevant policies, consumption, availability of ethanol blends, production facilities, feedstock sources, and economic and environmental impacts. Ethanol is commonly blended into gasoline across the United States, including the PNW. National and state-level policies encourage biofuel production and consumption in Washington and Oregon. Possible benefits of using ethanol as a biofuel include reducing greenhouse gas emissions and stimulating rural economies, in addition to increasing fuel octane ratings. Concerns include potential land use change and impacts on food prices. The PNW consumed 523 million gallons of fuel ethanol in 2015. As of 2018, three ethanol refineries are operating in the PNW and a large-scale facility stands idle. Most ethanol consumed and produced in the PNW is made from imported corn, but food waste, sugar beets, poplar trees, wheat/barley/grass straw, and forestry residues are also potential feedstock options for the region. If cellulosic ethanol reaches a wide-spread commercial scale, the PNW could utilize considerable quantities of cellulosic feedstocks. Ethanol production has grown over the past decade and may continue to increase with scientific advancements and policy support

Better support for collaborations preparing for large-scale projects: the case study of the LSST Science Collaborations
Through the lens of the LSST Science Collaborations’ experience, we advocate for new, improved ways to fund large, complex collaborations as they work in preparation for and on peta-scale surveys. We advocate for the establishment of programs to support research and infrastructure that enables innovative collaborative research on such scales
