The simulated synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) data presented here was generated using PoSSM [Johnson and Brown 2018]. The data is suitable for bistatic, coherent signal processing and will form acoustic seafloor imagery. Included in this data package is simulated sonar data in Generic Data Format (GDF) files, a description of the GDF file contents, example SAS imagery, and supporting information about the simulated scenes. In total, there are eleven 60 m x 90 m scenes, labeled scene00 through scene10, with scene00 provided with the scatterers in isolation, i.e. no seafloor texture. This is provided for beamformer testing purposes and should result in an image similar to the one labeled "PoSSM-scene00-scene00-starboard-0.tif" in the Related Data Sets tab. The ten other scenes have varying degrees of model variation as described in "Description_of_Simulated_SAS_Data_Package.pdf". A description of the data and the model is found in the associated document called "Description_of_Simulated_SAS_Data_Package.pdf" and a description of the format in which the raw binary data is stored is found in the related document "PSU_GDF_Format_20240612.pdf". The format description also includes MATLAB code that will effectively parse the data to aid in signal processing and image reconstruction. It is left to the researcher to develop a beamforming algorithm suitable for coherent signal and image processing. Each 60 m x 90 m scene is represented by 4 raw (not beamformed) GDF files, labeled sceneXX-STARBOARD-000000 through 000003. It is possible to beamform smaller scenes from any one of these 4 files, i.e. the four files are combined sequentially to form a 60 m x 90 m image. Also included are comma separated value spreadsheets describing the locations of scatterers and objects of interest within each scene. In addition to the binary GDF data, a beamformed GeoTIFF image and a single-look complex (SLC, science file) data of each scene is provided. The SLC data (science) is stored in the Hierarchical Data Format 5 (https://www.hdfgroup.org/), and appended with ".hdf5" to indicate the HDF5 format. The data are stored as 32-bit real and 32-bit complex values. A viewer is available that provides basic graphing, image display, and directory navigation functions (https://www.hdfgroup.org/downloads/hdfview/). The HDF file contains all the information necessary to reconstruct a synthetic aperture sonar image. All major and contemporary programming languages have library support for encoding/decoding the HDF5 format. Supporting documentation that outlines positions of the seafloor scatterers is included in "Scatterer_Locations_Scene00.csv", while the locations of the objects of interest for scene01-scene10 are included in "Object_Locations_All_Scenes.csv". Portable Network Graphic (PNG) images that plot the location of objects of all the objects of interest in each scene in Along-Track and Cross-Track notation are provided.

This formatted dataset (AnalysisDatabaseGBD) originates from raw data files from the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD2017) affiliated with the University of Washington. We are volunteer collaborators with IHME and not employed by IHME or the University of Washington.

The population weighted GBD2017 data are on male and female cohorts ages 15-69 years including noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), body mass index (BMI), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and other health outcomes and associated dietary, metabolic, and other risk factors. The purpose of creating this population-weighted, formatted database is to explore the univariate and multiple regression correlations of health outcomes with risk factors. Our research hypothesis is that we can successfully model NCDs, BMI, CVD, and other health outcomes with their attributable risks.

These Global Burden of disease data relate to the preprint: The EAT-Lancet Commission Planetary Health Diet compared with Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation Global Burden of Disease Ecological Data Analysis. The data include the following: 1. Analysis database of population weighted GBD2017 data that includes over 40 health risk factors, noncommunicable disease deaths/100k/year of male and female cohorts ages 15-69 years from 195 countries (the primary outcome variable that includes over 100 types of noncommunicable diseases) and over 20 individual noncommunicable diseases (e.g., ischemic heart disease, colon cancer, etc). 2. A text file to import the analysis database into SAS 3. The SAS code to format the analysis database to be used for analytics 4. SAS code for deriving Tables 1, 2, 3 and Supplementary Tables 5 and 6 5. SAS code for deriving the multiple regression formula in Table 4. 6. SAS code for deriving the multiple regression formula in Table 5 7. SAS code for deriving the multiple regression formula in Supplementary Table 7

The Semantic Artist Similarity dataset consists of two datasets of artists entities with their corresponding biography texts, and the list of top-10 most similar artists within the datasets used as ground truth. The dataset is composed by a corpus of 268 artists and a slightly larger one of 2,336 artists, both gathered from Last.fm in March 2015. The former is mapped to the MIREX Audio and Music Similarity evaluation dataset, so that its similarity judgments can be used as ground truth. For the latter corpus we use the similarity between artists as provided by the Last.fm API. For every artist there is a list with the top-10 most related artists. In the MIREX dataset there are 188 artists with at least 10 similar artists, the other 80 artists have less than 10 similar artists. In the Last.fm API dataset all artists have a list of 10 similar artists. There are 4 files in the dataset.mirex_gold_top10.txt and lastfmapi_gold_top10.txt have the top-10 lists of artists for every artist of both datasets. Artists are identified by MusicBrainz ID. The format of the file is one line per artist, with the artist mbid separated by a tab with the list of top-10 related artists identified by their mbid separated by spaces.artist_mbid \t artist_mbid_top10_list_separated_by_spaces mb2uri_mirex and mb2uri_lastfmapi.txt have the list of artists. In each line there are three fields separated by tabs. First field is the MusicBrainz ID, second field is the last.fm name of the artist, and third field is the DBpedia uri.artist_mbid \t lastfm_name \t dbpedia_uri There are also 2 folders in the dataset with the biography texts of each dataset. Each .txt file in the biography folders is named with the MusicBrainz ID of the biographied artist. Biographies were gathered from the Last.fm wiki page of every artist.Using this datasetWe would highly appreciate if scientific publications of works partly based on the Semantic Artist Similarity dataset quote the following publication:Oramas, S., Sordo M., Espinosa-Anke L., & Serra X. (In Press). A Semantic-based Approach for Artist Similarity. 16th International Society for Music Information Retrieval Conference.We are interested in knowing if you find our datasets useful!

This SAS code extracts data from EU-SILC User Database (UDB) longitudinal files and edits it such that a file is produced that can be further used for differential mortality analyses. Information from the original D, R, H and P files is merged per person and possibly pooled over several longitudinal data releases. Vital status information is extracted from target variables DB110 and RB110, and time at risk between the first interview and either death or censoring is estimated based on quarterly date information. Apart from path specifications, the SAS code consists of several SAS macros. Two of them require parameter specification from the user. The other ones are just executed. The code was written in Base SAS, Version 9.4. By default, the output file contains several variables which are necessary for differential mortality analyses, such as sex, age, country, year of first interview, and vital status information. In addition, the user may specify the analytical variables by which mortality risk should be compared later, for example educational level or occupational class. These analytical variables may be measured either at the first interview (the baseline) or at the last interview of a respondent. The output file is available in SAS format and by default also in csv format.

Description of the experiment setting: location, influential climatic conditions, controlled conditions (e.g. temperature, light cycle) In 1986, the Congress enacted Public Laws 99-500 and 99-591, requiring a biennial report on the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). In response to these requirements, FNS developed a prototype system that allowed for the routine acquisition of information on WIC participants from WIC State Agencies. Since 1992, State Agencies have provided electronic copies of these data to FNS on a biennial basis. FNS and the National WIC Association (formerly National Association of WIC Directors) agreed on a set of data elements for the transfer of information. In addition, FNS established a minimum standard dataset for reporting participation data. For each biennial reporting cycle, each State Agency is required to submit a participant-level dataset containing standardized information on persons enrolled at local agencies for the reference month of April. The 2016 Participant and Program Characteristics (PC2016) is the thirteenth data submission to be completed using the WIC PC reporting system. In April 2016, there were 90 State agencies: the 50 States, American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, the American Virgin Islands, and 34 Indian tribal organizations. Processing methods and equipment used Specifications on formats (“Guidance for States Providing Participant Data”) were provided to all State agencies in January 2016. This guide specified 20 minimum dataset (MDS) elements and 11 supplemental dataset (SDS) elements to be reported on each WIC participant. Each State Agency was required to submit all 20 MDS items and any SDS items collected by the State agency.   Study date(s) and duration The information for each participant was from the participants’ most current WIC certification as of April 2016. Due to management information constraints, Connecticut provided data for a month other than April 2016, specifically August 16 – September 15, 2016. Study spatial scale (size of replicates and spatial scale of study area) In April 2016, there were 90 State agencies: the 50 States, American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, the American Virgin Islands, and 34 Indian tribal organizations. Level of true replication Unknown Sampling precision (within-replicate sampling or pseudoreplication) State Agency Data Submissions. PC2016 is a participant dataset consisting of 8,815,472 active records. The records, submitted to USDA by the State Agencies, comprise a census of all WIC enrollees, so there is no sampling involved in the collection of this data. PII Analytic Datasets. State agency files were combined to create a national census participant file of approximately 8.8 million records. The census dataset contains potentially personally identifiable information (PII) and is therefore not made available to the public. National Sample Dataset. The public use SAS analytic dataset made available to the public has been constructed from a nationally representative sample drawn from the census of WIC participants, selected by participant category. The nationally representative sample is composed of 60,003 records. The distribution by category is 5,449 pregnant women, 4,661 breastfeeding women, 3,904 postpartum women, 13,999 infants, and 31,990 children. Level of subsampling (number and repeat or within-replicate sampling) The proportionate (or self-weighting) sample was drawn by WIC participant category: pregnant women, breastfeeding women, postpartum women, infants, and children. In this type of sample design, each WIC participant has the same probability of selection across all strata. Sampling weights are not needed when the data are analyzed. In a proportionate stratified sample, the largest stratum accounts for the highest percentage of the analytic sample. Study design (before–after, control–impacts, time series, before–after-control–impacts) None – Non-experimental Description of any data manipulation, modeling, or statistical analysis undertaken Each entry in the dataset contains all MDS and SDS information submitted by the State agency on the sampled WIC participant. In addition, the file contains constructed variables used for analytic purposes. To protect individual privacy, the public use file does not include State agency, local agency, or case identification numbers.

This is the complete dataset for the 500 Cities project 2016 release. This dataset includes 2013, 2014 model-based small area estimates for 27 measures of chronic disease related to unhealthy behaviors (5), health outcomes (13), and use of preventive services (9). Data were provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Population Health, Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch. The project was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) in conjunction with the CDC Foundation. It represents a first-of-its kind effort to release information on a large scale for cities and for small areas within those cities. It includes estimates for the 500 largest US cities and approximately 28,000 census tracts within these cities. These estimates can be used to identify emerging health problems and to inform development and implementation of effective, targeted public health prevention activities. Because the small area model cannot detect effects due to local interventions, users are cautioned against using these estimates for program or policy evaluations. Data sources used to generate these measures include Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data (2013, 2014), Census Bureau 2010 census population data, and American Community Survey (ACS) 2009-2013, 2010-2014 estimates. More information about the methodology can be found at www.cdc.gov/500cities. Note: During the process of uploading the 2015 estimates, CDC found a data discrepancy in the published 500 Cities data for the 2014 city-level obesity crude prevalence estimates caused when reformatting the SAS data file to the open data format. . The small area estimation model and code were correct. This data discrepancy only affected the 2014 city-level obesity crude prevalence estimates on the Socrata open data file, the GIS-friendly data file, and the 500 Cities online application. The other obesity estimates (city-level age-adjusted and tract-level) and the Mapbooks were not affected. No other measures were affected. The correct estimates are update in this dataset on October 25, 2017.

The Emerging Pathogens Initiative (EPI) database contains emerging pathogens information from the local Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs). The EPI software package allows the VA to track emerging pathogens on the national level without additional data entry at the local level. The results from aggregation of data can be shared with the appropriate public health authorities including non-VA and the private health care sector allowing national planning, formulation of intervention strategies, and resource allocations. EPI is designed to automatically collect data on emerging diseases for Veterans Affairs Central Office (VACO) to analyze. The data is sent to the Austin Information Technology Center (AITC) from all Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) systems for initial processing and combination with related workload data. VACO data retrieval and analysis is then carried out. The AITC creates two file structures both in Statistical Analysis Software (SAS) file format, which are used as a source of data for the Veterans Affairs Headquarters (VAHQ) Infectious Diseases Program Office. These files are manipulated and used for analysis and reporting by the National Infectious Diseases Service. Emerging Pathogens (as characterized by VACO) act as triggers for data acquisition activities in the automated program. The system retrieves relevant, predetermined, patient-specific information in the form of a Health Level Seven (HL7) message that is transmitted to the central data repository at the AITC. Once at that location, the data is converted to a SAS dataset for analysis by the VACO National Infectious Diseases Service. Before data transmission an Emerging Pathogens Verification Report is produced for the local sites to review, verify, and make corrections as needed. After data transmission to the AITC it is added to the EPI database.

The SAS2RAW database is a log of the 28 SAS-2 observation intervals and contains target names, sky coordinates start times and other information for all 13056 photons detected by SAS-2. The original data came from 2 sources. The photon information was obtained from the Event Encyclopedia, and the exposures were derived from the original "Orbit Attitude Live Time" (OALT) tapes stored at NASA/GSFC. These data sets were combined into FITS format images at HEASARC. The images were formed by making the center pixel of a 512 x 512 pixel image correspond to the RA and DEC given in the event file. Each photon's RA and DEC was converted to a relative pixel in the image. This was done by using Aitoff projections. All the raw data from the original SAS-2 binary data files are now stored in 28 FITS files. These images can be accessed and plotted using XIMAGE and other columns of the FITS file extensions can be plotted with the FTOOL FPLOT. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

This database is a collection of maps created from the 28 SAS-2 observation files. The original observation files can be accessed within BROWSE by changing to the SAS2RAW database. For each of the SAS-2 observation files, the analysis package FADMAP was run and the resulting maps, plus GIF images created from these maps, were collected into this database. Each map is a 60 x 60 pixel FITS format image with 1 degree pixels. The user may reconstruct any of these maps within the captive account by running FADMAP from the command line after extracting a file from within the SAS2RAW database. The parameters used for selecting data for these product map files are embedded keywords in the FITS maps themselves. These parameters are set in FADMAP, and for the maps in this database are set as 'wide open' as possible. That is, except for selecting on each of 3 energy ranges, all other FADMAP parameters were set using broad criteria. To find more information about how to run FADMAP on the raw event's file, the user can access help files within the SAS2RAW database or can use the 'fhelp' facility from the command line to gain information about FADMAP. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
