“Whether my Body Breaks or the Plum Tree Withers”: Iwanaga Maki, Social Welfare Pioneer, and the jūjikai Women's Religious Order

open access: yesJournal of Religious History, EarlyView.
Maria Iwanaga Maki (1849–1920) was 23 years old in 1873 when she returned home after a community exile and persecutions of more than 3000 people carried out by the Meiji government. Historians in the public record refer to Iwanaga as otoko‐masari (man‐nish) when she stood up to a representative of the Shogun, while in her public work she became known ...

Human Motion Serialization Recognition With Through-the-Wall Radar

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Motivated by the intrinsic dynamics of physical motion as well as establishment of target motion model, this article addresses the problem of human motion recognition with ultra wide band (UWB) through-the-wall radar (TWR) in a novel view of range ...

Learning by stochastic serializations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Complex structures are typical in machine learning. Tailoring learning algorithms for every structure requires an effort that may be saved by defining a generic learning procedure adaptive to any complex structure. In this paper, we propose to map any complex structure onto a generic form, called serialization, over which we can apply any sequence ...

Characterization and Comparison of Application Resilience for Serial and Parallel Executions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Soft error of exascale application is a challenge problem in modern HPC. In order to quantify an application's resilience and vulnerability, the application-level fault injection method is widely adopted by HPC users. However, it is not easy since users need to inject a large number of faults to ensure statistical significance, especially for parallel ...

On the field: Race, gender and sports in colonial Ghana

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article analyses Ghanaian women's sport practice from the late nineteenth century to the late 1950s, from games intertwined with displays of colonial authority to school competitions, physical education and tennis. The article argues that their performances played with changing categorisations of African girlhood and womanhood, especially

Left to Live and Die: Resource Security and the Biopolitics of Land Stockpiling in China

open access: yesAntipode, EarlyView.
Abstract Beginning in 2007, the Chinese state used liberalising policy and funding to encourage the expansion of large‐scale grain farming. Despite this support, many of the new farms have struggled financially and folded. Drawing on Foucauldian biopolitics and resource security literature, I argue that, with modernised agriculture, the state primarily

On Serial Symmetric Exchanges of Matroid Bases [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Graph Theory 1002/jgt.21675 (2012), 2011
We study some properties of a serial (i.e. one-by-one) symmetric exchange of elements of two disjoint bases of a matroid. We show that any two elements of one base have a serial symmetric exchange with some two elements of the other base. As a result, we obtain that any two disjoint bases in a matroid of rank 4 have a full serial symmetric exchange.
