NSF-CBMS REGIONAL CONFERENCE 2016说：

留言于2016-02-23 11:33:56（第31条）

UT-AUSTIN DEPARTMENT OF STATISTICS AND DATA SCIENCES PRESENTS: NSF-CBMS REGIONAL CONFERENCE 2016
Topology Data Analysis
TOPOLOGY, GEOMETRY AND STATISTICS
Topological data analysis (TDA) has recently emerged as an active new field of research, which has generated great interest across mathematics, statistics, computer science, machine learning, and electrical engineering communities. TDA is being applied to image analysis, neuroscience, networks analysis, morphology, genetics, cancer research and other problems. The interdisciplinary nature of TDA naturally leads to the literature and the active researchers being scattered across different fields. This lack of a cohesive disciplinary home makes it difficult for junior researchers and in particular graduate students from statistics to obtain exposure to the field. This workshop will strive to fill this gap by focusing on tutorial and overview talks on topological data analysis and providing hands-on data analysis sessions.

KEY SPEAKER- SAYAN MUKHERJEEE - DUKE UNIVERSITY
The conference will feature Professor Sayan Mukherjee from Duke University as the principal lecturer who will provide an overview of how geometry and topology can be used for statistical inference. There will be some applied and data analysis aspects to the lecture where some common Topological Data Analysis codes will be used to model shape data, specifically heel bones of primates. Applied aspects of the program will include applications of the methodology developed in quantitative genetics, statistical genetics, as well as computer vision applications. The CBMS Conference will introduce graduate students and junior researchers to TDA, an active new field, which lies at the exciting intersection of topology, geometry, and statistics and serve as an opportunity to foster research collaborations.

提燈籠：元宵節又稱燈籠節，而元宵節的晚上，讓孩子們去外面提燈籠，更是元宵節的中心活動。古時候的私塾自春節前放年假，要到正月十五日才開學，而學童開學當天最重要的工作就是「開燈」。「開燈」即是由學生家長準備好一盞精巧的燈籠，交由學生帶到私塾，由博學的老師替他點燃起來，再由學生提著，以象徵其前途光明的吉祥意味。然而這種學校「開燈」的吉祥習俗，慢慢的演變成了元宵孩子們提燈籠的風俗。
猜燈謎：以往燈謎都在寺廟裡舉行，因為寺廟乃民眾閒暇時聚集的場所，而且有花燈競賽與展示，所以從前都在花燈下榜上一個謎面，到元宵夜由廟裡相關人員主持猜燈謎，場面熱鬧而溫馨，因為可以得個獎品回家，算是小過年的吉祥兆頭。演變至今，元宵節猜燈謎拿大獎，已是我國的傳統習俗，也是各活動的主辦單位在當天必備的活動單元之一。
乞龜：台灣的許多寺廟，也在元宵節舉行「乞龜」的活動，以作為慶祝。所謂「乞龜」，就是由廟方準備由糯米或麵粉製成烏龜擺在廟前。元宵節當天可由信徒擲筊乞回，讓家人「吃平安」。乞得麵龜的人家，明年元宵必須還給廟方一個更大的麵龜。本活動也備有麵龜，讓鄉親可以許願，並祈求來年有個吉祥如意的一年。

A City of Workers, A City for Workers? Beijing Urban Space in the 1950s
Thursday, February 18, 2016, 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Bunche Hall 10383, UCLA
Talk by Fabio Lanza, University of Arizona
Immediately after Beijing’s “peaceful liberation” in 1949, Chinese planners and leaders conjured up the idea of a capital city that could fulfill three different but theoretically inseparable functions: it should be a productive city, with a sizeable modern industrial proletariat; it should host a vast centralized bureaucracy; and it should be remade into a more perfect structure, in which the needs of the people (the newly industrialized working masses) could be finally satisfied and the people themselves remade into new socialist individuals. Documents of the Beijing government in the 1950s indicate that these three functions proved to be in the end incompatible. Socialist “city construction” became realized in a form of and urban modernization that was antithetical to any radical change in the lives of the working people and to any step towards a more equalitarian organization of society. While in the 1950s Beijing was indeed being transformed into a city of workers, it was not becoming a city for workers.

This presentation traces the increasing distance, through the 1950s, between the projects of the planners and practices at street level, showing how the contradictions of Beijing’s urban space were intrinsic to some of the basic concepts that animated the early PRC, such as “development,” “modernization,” and “production.” But it also illustrates how the city government (and Beijing residents) never stopped trying to solve these tensions, leading to the creation of new forms of urban organizations, from the danwei in the early 1950s to the urban communes of the Great Leap Forward.

Fabio Lanza (Ph.D. Columbia University, 2004) is associate professor of modern Chinese history in the Departments of History and East Asian Studies of the University of Arizona. His main research interests are political movements and urban history of twentieth-century China. He is the author of Behind the Gate: Inventing Students in Beijing (Columbia University Press, 2010) and co-editor (with Jadwiga Pieper-Mooney) of De-Centering Cold War History Local and Global Change (Routledge, 2013).
He has recently completed a manuscript on Maoism, Asian Studies and intellectual activism in the U.S. and France and has just started a new project on Beijing urban space under Maoism.

RE: People v. Peter Liang
Indictment No. 9988/2014

Dear Honorable Thompson,

I am very disappointed that your office decided to indict Office Peter Liang, a young Chinese American officer who really wanted to serve our community. While Officer Wenjian Liu was killed in the line of duty, Officer Liang was indicted because of an accidental shooting. I believe that his conviction was unjust and I do not believe that the charge of reckless manslaughter is supported by any reasonable view of the evidence submitted at trial. Likewise, the conviction of official misconduct is unsupported by the evidence.

I respectfully ask that your office would reconsider the position and will stipulate to Liang's Motion to Set Aside the illogical verdict handed down by the jury. If your office will not agree to set aside the verdict, I respectfully ask that you sentence Police Officer Peter Liang to probation. Institutional confinement of Police Officer Peter Liang is not necessary for the protection of the public. A prison sentence would be inconsistent with the ends of justice. It would send the wrong message to our Asian American community.

Respectfully submitted,

Chris L.说：

NYPD Sucks, No Scapegoating! 纽约警局太烂，不许嫁祸与人！
最近大家都在讨论集结游行的口号，我认为比较好的口号应该是: NYPD Sucks, No Scapegoating! 因为受屈辱的不只是一个Peter 梁，是很多的Peter 梁，是华人群体，这个趋势已经长期存在，现在到了忍无可忍的地步。从下面网文可以看到，如果说只讲 “Shame on Peter Liang" （梁警官的过失），还不如说 “Shame on NYPD!"，要让美国人理解华人 Peter Liang 不能作为 NYPD 的替罪羊，如果这个搞不明白，游行就失去了意义。因而我建议采用 “NYPD Sucks, No Scapegoating！” 作为游行主要口号，意思是用"纽约警局太烂，不许嫁祸与人"。来点明事实真相。至于一定要写上 NYPD Sucks! 就是要点出警察机制的弊病，这也为各族裔所接受，提升社会公义。用 NYPD Sucks, 来主领口号，这样做另一个作用是为了敲山震虎。

请看相关链接：“游行口号怎么喊，正确声援梁警官”- 作者：songmenglaw

这次的事件要强调“体制的受害者”的概念，是因为这一方面说明了我们所反对的不公正是什么，另一方面也把议题从个案的是非转到体制的公允。如果有心留意英文媒体报道下各种评论的话，也会发现凡是对梁警官持同情态度的人，大多同意梁警官被判有罪，是政治需要的“替罪羊”。不过“替罪羊”这样的词，很微妙，外人用就是同情和支持，自己用就是开脱逃避责任。所以，华人社区示威的时候，“Shame on NYPD” 或者“Victim of the System”占多数，偶尔出现几个No Scapegoating也无妨。但是一旦被问起，要说明不是针对个案的。那么梁警官在体制里到底怎么被牺牲了呢？为什么说他是被体制牺牲了呢？我认为至少可以从以下三方面陈述：

1. 替先前白人警官的罪。具体就不展开了，大家可以再回顾下Michael Brown和Eric Garner被白人警察打死的新闻。前者发生在Ferguson，事件中的白人警察Darren Wilson总共开了12枪。后者Eric Garner的事件发生在梁警官事件的同样地点纽约，死者被疑似锁喉致死，死前发出“我不能呼吸”（I can’t breathe）的求救信号11次。顺便说一下，梁警官一直被人诟病在格里倒下后没有进行人工呼吸CPR复苏抢救，梁警官的辩解是自己没有足够的训练去做CPR。在Eric Garner的事件中，白人警官Daniel Pantaleo在等待急救车的时候，也并没有实施CPR，辩解是他“以为”Garner当时还有呼吸。最后的结果大家都知道了，这两位白人警官最后都没有被起诉，引起了全国性的黑人大暴动。而正在此时，我们不幸的梁警官误伤了格里，并卷入到这起警民对立的系列事件中。我觉得之前提到的叙事角度，即强调白人警察能开脱而华人警察不能，对我们不利的原因除了上面列举的以外，还有就是把梁警官白白地和这些故意伤人的警官放到了一个层面去比较。而事实是，梁警官的错误和上面这两者简直就不是一个级别的。我们需要强调的是，梁警官是最近一系列警察伤害事件中唯一被起诉并且被判有罪的，但他同时是唯一一个并没有伤害意图的警察。如果说一定要说事后没有做CPR就有意图了，那么可以反问下：那些打了12枪的呢？那些听了11次求救呼声仍然罔顾的呢？

2. 替同伴Shaun Landau的罪。和梁警官当时同时巡逻的，是另外一位菜鸟警官Shaun Landau。但是如上所说，Shaun Landau与检察官达成协议起诉梁警官后，就免于被起诉了。陪审团最后定梁警官罪的时候，有考虑到一个很重要的情节是，梁警官没有及时汇报上级和做CPR抢救格里。如果这些事后的情节真的是可以被考虑的严重犯罪行为话，那么和梁警官在一起的Shaun Landau脱罪就变得很难解释了。

3. 替纽约警局的罪。梁警官的事件，暴露出警察系统内部的很多问题。比如：为什么派两个菜鸟警官在夜晚去巡逻最危险的街区，而没有有经验的警察带领？警察手册到底是否有在真正被要求执行，还是有所谓的内部行规？警察的CPR训练是否只是走过场？此外，之前的白人警察致死黑人青年事件，也一直让人质疑警察系统的种族歧视问题（racial profiling）。这一系列的问题都没有被回答，而纽约警察工会选择把梁警官推上风口浪尖承担一切作为交代。好了，至此我们已经能够基本回答到底谁歧视了谁，梁警官怎么被牺牲了。但是仍然有一个关键的问题，可能会把华人的立场摆到一个很政治不正确的地步。比如，如果有人这么问：你们是不是不管梁警官到底有没有错，只关心白人杀黑人可以开脱，所以要求亚裔也可以开脱？换言之，你们到底知不知道Black Lives Matter的运动？你们对黑人有没有一点同情心？你们是在争取亚裔警察和白人一样的杀黑人没责任的特权吗？

平等对待的两种可能，Charge Pantaleo!
首先，根据上面提到的事实可以看到，梁警官的情节严重程度，明显弱于先前引起轰动的所有白人警察袭击黑人青年事件。梁警官是唯一没有伤害意图的警察。既然我们要求的是平等对待，那么其实理论上讲有两种可能性。一种是，之前白人警察脱罪是合法正义的，那么梁警官情节更轻，不应当担此重罪。这是我们要抗议的。那理论上还有一种可能是，梁警官现在受到的判决其实才是正义的，而之前的白人警察是漏网了。OK，如果一定要说梁警官这次的判决是正义的实现，那么我们要求，请重新严查Daniel Pantaleo，请重新严查Darren Wilson！（如果有朋友问法律上这是否可行，那么答案估计是不可行。如有错误，还请纽约律师更正。但是，这个诉求是一种姿态，我们并非一定要把他们带回法庭，但是至少要求把他们带回公众的视野。）这样的诉求，一方面使得诉求的逻辑更加完整，另一方面的优势是把我们的诉求搭在当今火热的Black Lives Matter运动上。我们的游行，不是为了与黑人社区为敌的，而是为了帮助黑人社区追惩真凶，而不是任由警局拿一个意外开枪的菜鸟警察搪塞说事儿。纽约的警察系统也许想牺牲梁警官平息黑人社区的怒火，那我们游行的目的之一是，不要让黑人社区买这个账。虚假的胜利不是胜利，Black Lives Matter的运动不能莫名其妙以梁警官被控诉为终结。如果这个目标可以得到部分黑人社区的认同，那么就能使警察系统知道，牺牲少数族裔求太平，是没有用处的。

我们的游行不是为了包庇同胞寻求特殊待遇，我们要的是公正的对待。不仅是对我们自己华人的公正对待，也是对黑人社区的公正对待。如果有Shame on NYPD, Charge Panteleo这样的标语出现，那么走过路过的黑人大哥至少能一眼看出，我们和他们的诉求是部分重合的。不说上来帮忙，至少不会产生敌意，闹出新的矛盾。阅读详情: http://www.backchina.com/blog/357573/article-243999.html#ixzz40MGwbEud

USC U.S.-China Institute说：

Please join the USC U.S.-China Institute for a book talk by Deborah Brautigam, one of the world's leading experts on China and Africa. Will Africa Feed China? explores China's evolving global quest for food security and Africa's possibilities for structural transformation.
What: Will Africa Feed China?
Who: Deborah Brautigam and Shaun Breslin
When: Thursday, February 18, 4-5:30pm
Where: ASC 207, Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, USC Campus
Cost: Free.
Is China building a new empire in rural Africa? Few development topics are as controversial and emotionally charged as the belief that the Chinese government is aggressively buying up huge tracts of prime African land to grow food to ship back to China. In Will Africa Feed China? Deborah Bräutigam, one of the world's leading experts on China and Africa, probes the myths and realities behind the media headlines. Chinese farming investments are in fact surprisingly limited, and land acquisitions modest. Defying expectations, China actually exports more food to Africa than it imports. Why is the reality of Chinese investment so different from the headlines? Is this picture likely to change? What role will China play as rural Africa moves from subsistence to commercial agriculture, and China builds a portfolio of tools to allow its agribusiness firms to "go global"?
Will Africa Feed China? answers these questions as it sheds new light on China's evolving global quest for food security and Africa's possibilities for structural transformation.
Presenter: Deborah Brautigam is the Bernard L. Schwartz Professor of Political Economy, Director of the International Development Program, and Director of the China Africa Research Initiative at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies. Her most recent books are The Dragon's Gift: The Real Story of China in Africa (2010) and Will Africa Feed China? (2015). Before joining SAIS in 2012, she taught at Columbia University and American University. Bräutigam's teaching and research focus on international development strategies, governance, and foreign aid. Journalists, government agencies, and international organizations frequently turn to her for analysis and advice.
Discussant: Shaun Breslin is professor of politics and international studies at the University of Warwick. His books include China and the Global Political Economy (2007), Mao (2000), and China in the 1980s: Centre-Province Relations in a Reforming Socialist State (1996). He's also the editor of a number of books and has written recently on Chinese ideas on human security. He is frequently cited in the press and among his op-eds is one on Chinese leader Xi Jinping's 2015 visit to the United States.
