Abstract:
This article reports the results of a nested analysis conducted to evaluate whether or not electoral donations are considered legal bribes. Introduced by Lieberman, nested analysis brings together the strengths of the regression analysis and the case study research by integrating large- N approaches (LNA) with small- N approaches (SNA). The nested analysis uses a sequential sampling model (QUANTITATIVE → QUALITATIVE) and a nested sampling design (case selection “on/off the line”). Here, Lieberman’s original model was extended to deal with an apparent paradox that emerged from the analysis. This inquiry included a cross-national examination among 78 countries, denoted as LNA, followed by an intranational analysis conducted in Colombia, where an SNA survey with 302 respondents and an SNA case study were carried out.

Abstract:
The pecan weevil, Curculio caryae Horn, is an obligate nut feeder of all North American hickory (Carya) and a key pest of the pecan, C. illinoinensis Koch. This study investigated population structure of the pecan weevil. Gene flow and genetic variation was estimated for 90 pecan weevil specimens sampled from the entire Carya range. Cladistic and nested clade analyses, as well as an analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) of mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase I (mtDNA COI) were performed. The data indicate C. caryae diverged from its sister species, C. nasicus approximately 4.3 million years before present (mybp). Six-hundred and forty equally parsimonious trees of 31 haplotypes demonstrated high genetic diversity across all pecan weevil samples, and significant regional subdivision. Three clades recovered in the parsimony and nested clade analyses were strongly associated with western, eastern and central localities sampled within C. caryae's range. The current distribution of C. caryae and population structure were explained by past glaciation events. Lineage divergence between the western and eastern populations occurred during the Pleistocene (approx. 1.1 million years ago), and a more recent divergence occurred between C. caryae populations east and west of the Appalachian mountain range (870,000 yrs. ago). Haplotypes were segregated by region, but further sampling is necessary to test for gene flow among these regions.

Full text
Abstract:
There are two principle problems to address. Firstly, there is a greater degree of freedom in model approximation within the context on an inner-loop, as something less than closed-loop stability on C+ is required. The standard notions which under-pin the H-loopshaping framework, such as coprime factor and graph representations, readily generalise to connected subsets of C. However, to assess the fitness of any candidate approximation regarding inner-loop design we require a generalisation of the v-gap metric. This is obtained by removing the artificial dependence upon the existence of normalised coprime factorisations and working instead with a pointwise normalisation on the boundary. Secondly, we desire a means of synthesising a controller with a nested structure, that preserves the robustness guarantees associated with the conventional case. On the occasion that the inner-loop is implemented in observer form, we obtain a simple inequality relating the stability margins associated with a 2-loop nested feedback system. The guarantee this provides for the sequential approach to design is too weak to be of use. Two new methods are therefore developed which exploit the inequality to achieve a robustness guarantee. To complete this work, the generalised v-gap and a rigorous approach to nested feedback system synthesis are both applied to the design of a full flight control system for the USAF Have Dash II air-air missile.

Abstract:
Concept-oriented model of data (COM) has been recently defined syntactically by means of the concept-oriented query language (COQL). In this paper we propose a formal embodiment of this model, called nested partially ordered sets (nested posets), and demonstrate how it is connected with its syntactic counterpart. Nested poset is a novel formal construct that can be viewed either as a nested set with partial order relation established on its elements or as a conventional poset where elements can themselves be posets. An element of a nested poset is defined as a couple consisting of one identity tuple and one entity tuple. We formally define main operations on nested posets and demonstrate their usefulness in solving typical data management and analysis tasks such as logic navigation, constraint propagation, inference and multidimensional analysis.

Full text
Abstract:
Phylogeography is a field that has been constantly developing. Many methods exist that can be used to tease apart the demographic processes and events that affect a species evolution. One method in particular, Nested Clade Phylogeographic Analysis (NCPA), has become a popular method for doing this. It claims that the distance statistics it uses can discriminate between multiple demographic scenarios. However, a major limitation of NCPA is that it does not provide estimates of error. Lack of automation of two stages in NCPA has meant few datasets can be simulated. A fully automated package, ANeCA, is developed, tested and applied to published datasets to recover published inferences. Many inferences are recovered showing that ANeCA is representative of a typical application of NCPA. ANeCA is also applied to data simulated under a model of panmixia. Results show on average 76% of datasets gave rise to at least one inference of an event or process when there was no geographic association. This is due to the generation of multiple statistics per clade, and multiple clades per dataset. It is also shown that the statistics are not independent of each other, making it difficult to correct the multiple tests performed. ANeCA is also applied to simulated data under three models of gene flow; an island model; a stepping stone model; and a lat- , tice model with some long distance dispersal. The results show that NCPA has a tendency to infer Restricted Gene Flow with Isolation By Distance, and Contiguous Range Expansion, under panmixia and the three gene flow models. Unlike the panmictic model where other inferences were rare, many inferences are found in higher frequencies irrespective of the underlying gene flow model. Comparison between the island and stepping stone models show that NCPA is unable to discriminate between long and short distance movements. Three classical summary statistics; AMOVAj Fu's FSj and the Mantel test, were also calculated on each dataset. Results show false positives rates to be around 5% for the AMOVA method and Mantel test, and 3% for Fu's Fs at the deme level. In general the AMOVA method is more sensitive to population structure than NCPA, and the Mantel test is more sensitive to isolation by distance than NCPA. The results that have been obtained in this study suggest that previous publications that have used NCPA have most likely made false inferences and it is recommended that classical, and most probably model-based, methods of inference should be used in preference to NCPA.

Full text
Abstract:
Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models are now routinely utilized for the evaluation of trade policy reforms, yet they are typically quite highly aggregated, which limits their usefulness to trade negotiators who are often interested in impacts at the tariff line. On the other hand, Partial Equilibrium (PE) models, which are typically used for analysis at disaggregate levels, deprive the researcher of the benefits of an economy-wide analysis, which is required to examine the overall impact of broad-based trade policy reforms. Therefore, a PE-GE, nested modeling framework has the prospect of offering an ideal tool for trade policy analysis. In this paper, we develop a PE model that captures international trade, domestic consumption and output, using Constant Elasticity of Transformation (CET) and Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES) structures, market clearing conditions and price linkages, nested within the standard GTAP Model. In particular, we extend the welfare decomposition of Huff and Hertel (2001) to this PE-GE model in order to contrast the sources of welfare gain in PE and GE analyses. To illustrate the usefulness of this model, we examine the contentious issue of tariff liberalization in the Indian auto sector, using PE, GE and PE-GE models. Both the PE and PE-GE models show that the imports of Motorcycles and Automobiles change drastically with both unilateral and bilateral tariff liberalization by India, but the PE model does a poor job predicting the overall size and price level in the industry, post-liberalization. On the other hand, the GE model overestimates substitution between regional suppliers due to “false competition” and underestimates the welfare gain, due to the problem of tariff averaging in the aggregated model. These findings are shown to be robust to wide variation in model parameters. We conclude that the linked model is superior to both the GE and PE counterparts.

Partial Equilibrium (PE) models used for disaggregate analysis lack the benefits of an economy-wide analysis required to examine the overall impact of trade policy reforms. This suggests the need for a PE-GE, nested modeling framework to support trade policy analysis.

In addition, we extend the welfare decomposition of Huff and Hertel (2001) to this PE-GE model to contrast the sources of welfare gain among models. To illustrate the value-added of this model, we examine the impact of multi-lateral tariff liberalization on the Indian economy, with special focus on the auto sector, using PE, GE and PE-GE models. The PE model does not predict the change in overall size and price level for the industry well, while the GE model underestimates the aggregate welfare gain due to tariff averaging. It also fails to account for the change in industry composition resulting from trade reform. These findings are robust to wide variation in model parameters. We conclude that the linked model is superior to both the GE and PE counterparts.

The report describes the use of contribution analysis as an overarching approach, with its emphasis on crafting, nesting and iteratively reflecting on causal theories of change. It illustrates how hierarchically-nested impact pathways lead to specific evaluation questions and mixing different evaluation methods in response to these questions, critical assumptions, and agreement on causal mechanisms to be examined in depth. It also illustrates how realist evaluation can be combined with contribution analysis to deeply investigate specific causal links in the theory of change. It reflects on learning from the use of causal hotspots as a vehicle for mixing methods. It offers considerations on how to navigate relationships and operational trade-offs in making methodological choices to build robust and credible evidence on how, for whom, and under what conditions participatory programming can work to address complex problems such as child labour.

Abstract:
Numerous extant studies are dedicated to enhancing the safety of active transportation modes, but very few studies are devoted to safety analysis surrounding transit stations, which serve as an important modal interface for pedestrians and bicyclists. This study bridges the gap by developing joint models based on the multivariate conditionally autoregressive (MCAR) priors with a distance-oriented neighboring weight matrix. For this purpose, transit-station-centered data in Los Angeles County were used for model development. Feature selection relying on both random forest and correlation analyses was employed, which leads to different covariate inputs to each of the two jointed models, resulting in increased model flexibility. Utilizing an Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation (INLA) algorithm and various evaluation criteria, the results demonstrate that models with a correlation effect between pedestrians and bicyclists perform much better than the models without such an effect. The joint models also aid in identifying significant covariates contributing to the safety of each of the two active transportation modes. The research results can furnish transportation professionals with additional insights to create safer access to transit and thus promote active transportation.

Abstract:
This study aims to identify the main critical misalignments and inconsistencies nested in the Ecuadorian education system, which inhibit and limit its capacity to transform efforts, resources, and reforms into better learning outcomes for all students. To do so, it uses an innovative methodology developed by the RISE (Research on Improving Systems of Education) programme based on a 'Systems Thinking' perspective. This approach allows the analysis of key actors, their incentives, and interactions, to assess the overall alignment of the system and the existence of barriers that might prevent the system transitioning towards better learning outcomes. This study is based mainly on qualitative methods and information collected in the field through interviews, focus groups and surveys held in the first semester of 2022 in three cities in Ecuador: Quito, Tena, and Guayaquil. In total, more than 50 stakeholders from different regions and levels of the education system actively participated in this effort, targeted towards the identification and discussion of the inconsistencies and critical issues described in this study. The report has five sections that offer a detailed account of the implementation of the RISE diagnostic framework in the Ecuadorian educational system.

Abstract:
Deep learning (DL) has attracted the attention of computational toxicologists as it offers a potentially greater power for in silico predictive toxicology than existing shallow learning algorithms. However, contradicting reports have been documented. To further explore the advantages of DL over shallow learning, we conducted this case study using two cell-based androgen receptor (AR) activity datasets with 10K chemicals generated from the Tox21 program. A nested double-loop cross-validation approach was adopted along with a stratified sampling strategy for partitioning chemicals of multiple AR activity classes (i.e., agonist, antagonist, inactive, and inconclusive) at the same distribution rates amongst the training, validation and test subsets. Deep neural networks (DNN) and random forest (RF), representing deep and shallow learning algorithms, respectively, were chosen to carry out structure-activity relationship-based chemical toxicity prediction. Results suggest that DNN significantly outperformed RF (p < 0.001, ANOVA) by 22–27% for four metrics (precision, recall, F-measure, and AUPRC) and by 11% for another (AUROC). Further in-depth analyses of chemical scaffolding shed insights on structural alerts for AR agonists/antagonists and inactive/inconclusive compounds, which may aid in future drug discovery and improvement of toxicity prediction modeling.
