The “Missing Third” In Hindu-Christian Studies: Adivasi Religion, Elsa Marty Feb 2023

The “Missing Third” In Hindu-Christian Studies: Adivasi Religion, Elsa Marty

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

INDIA’S ADIVASIS—and their traditional religions—stand at the intersection of Hinduism and Christianity. Variously characterized by outsiders as practitioners of animism, a folk variety of Hinduism, or a monotheistic precursor to Christianity, Adivasis and their religion have functioned as both a source and a foil through which Hindus and Christians have made sense of their own identity and related to each other. Drawing upon field work with Adivasis in Jharkhand who identify as practitioners of the Sarna religion, I examine two recent controversies: (1) a statue of the Virgin Mary dressed in a traditional Adivasi sari and (2) the addition of …


Ecstasy And Anguish: The Mystical Encounters Of Ramakrishna And Therese Of Lisieux, Andrea Bischoff Feb 2023

Ecstasy And Anguish: The Mystical Encounters Of Ramakrishna And Therese Of Lisieux, Andrea Bischoff

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

MYSTICAL experiences have been reported by both Hindu and Catholic religious figures. Hindu saint Ramakrishna and Catholic saint Thérèse of Lisieux are two such figures whose lives were dominated by direct, intimate encounters with the divine. Their encounters with Jesus, Mary, and Kālī frequently vacillated between states of ecstasy and anguish. Yet, while modern sensibilities may highlight the psychopathology of these emotional states, it is clear that these experiences had profound advantages for each saint’s spiritual life. Ultimately, interpreting these intimate encounters through the spiritual lives and traditions of the saints themselves can help Hindu and Christian scholars expand their …

On “The Relational Distinctiveness Of Jesus Christ” In The Work Of Stanley Samartha, Catherine Cornille Feb 2023

On “The Relational Distinctiveness Of Jesus Christ” In The Work Of Stanley Samartha, Catherine Cornille

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

THOUGH each generation of theologians has its own questions and priorities, the work of previous generations may still provide insights into new questions. Stanley Samartha’s theological reflections were mainly aimed at overcoming Christian exceptionalism and establishing a basis for constructive dialogue. However, in the process, he also attempted to develop a new way of understanding the particularity of Christianity, which resonates with my own interest in recovering and reinterpreting the notion of religious distinctiveness in response to the current tendency to focus on religious universals and blur religious boundaries.

Applying Positional Encoding To Enhance Vision-Language Transformers, Xuehao Liu, Sarah Jane Delany, Susan Mckeever Feb 2023

Applying Positional Encoding To Enhance Vision-Language Transformers, Xuehao Liu, Sarah Jane Delany, Susan Mckeever

Conference papers

Positional encoding is used in both natural language and computer vision transformers. It provides information on sequence order and relative position of input tokens (such as of words in a sentence) for higher performance. Unlike the pure language and vision transformers, vision-language transformers do not currently exploit positional encoding schemes to enrich input information. We show that capturing location information of visual features can help vision-language transformers improve their performance. We take Oscar, one of the state-of-the-art (SOTA) vision-language transformers as an example transformer for implanting positional encoding. We use image captioning as a downstream task to test performance. We …

Shared Responsibility: Conceptualising How A Public Health Approach May Enhance Police Response To Missing Persons, Katie Gambier-Ross, Joe Apps Dr, Sarah Wayland Dr Feb 2023

Shared Responsibility: Conceptualising How A Public Health Approach May Enhance Police Response To Missing Persons, Katie Gambier-Ross, Joe Apps Dr, Sarah Wayland Dr

International Journal of Missing Persons

When a person is reported missing there are substantial costs for the individual, their family and society. This paper conceptualises the experience of missing persons episodes, through a public health approach. This then allows police, stakeholders and the community to engage in discussions about who is vulnerable to going missing by intervening in a way that addresses risk. Historically, a missing persons episode involves an absence, typically followed by police involvement in consultation with next of kin with establishing the whereabouts of the missing person being the primary focus. Yet, the risk factors of going missing relate more to the …


Comparison Of Pulsed Electroacoustic Measurements And Af-Numit3 Modeling Of Polymers Irradiated With Monoenergetic Electrons, Zachary Gibson, J. R. Dennison, Brian Beecken, Ryan Hoffmann Feb 2023

Comparison Of Pulsed Electroacoustic Measurements And Af-Numit3 Modeling Of Polymers Irradiated With Monoenergetic Electrons, Zachary Gibson, J. R. Dennison, Brian Beecken, Ryan Hoffmann

Journal Articles

Successful spacecraft design and charging mitigation techniques require precise and accurate knowledge of charge deposition profiles. This paper compares models of charge deposition and transport using a venerable deep dielectric charging code, AF-NUMIT3, with direct measurements of charge profiles via pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) measurements. Eight different simulations were performed for comparison to PEA experiments of samples irradiated by 50 or 80 keV monoenergetic electrons in vacuum and at room temperature. Two materials, polyether-ether ketone (PEEK) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), were chosen for their very low conductivities so that minimal charge migration would occur between irradiation and PEA measurements. PEEK was found …
