Semiglobal Asymptotic Stabilization of Lower Triangular Systems by Digital Output Feedback

Digital control of nonlinear systems is studied by output feedback. It is proved that for nonlinear systems with a lower triangular structure, semiglobal asymptotic stabilization is still possible via discretized output feedback as long as a sampling time is small. The establishment of semiglobal asymptotic stabilizability needs no restrictive condition on the nonlinearities and/or unmeasurable states of the system, such as a linear growth condition or an output-dependent growth condition as commonly required in the case of global output feedback stabilization. It involves, however, tedious but subtle stability analysis due to the hybrid nature of the closed-loop system. A design method through “sample and hold” is developed to construct a semiglobally asymptotically stabilizing, digital output feedback compensator that consists of a high-gain nonlinear observer and controller, both with saturated states.

Application of Convolutional Neural Networks for the Classification of Human Emotions

: Computer vision training is implemented using deep learning. Deep learning can be applied to solve a variety of classification problems. Accordingly, the problem of recognizing human emotions based on facial images can be singled out. For this problem, the use of convolutional neural networks proved to be the best solution. Specifically, the convolutional neural network models used in this paper are ResNet50, VGG16, and VGG19. The CNN model was implemented using the Keras library and the Python programming language. As input to these models, the RAF-DB database containing images of human faces with emotions was used. Based on the results obtained from the mentioned three CNN models, VGG16 proved to be the best, achieving a precision of 83.61%. VGG19 was on the second place with an accuracy of 82.37%, and the worst was ResNet50, whose accuracy was 75.31%.
Satisfaction with Homeopathic Service and Care for Persons with Spinal Cord Injury

Background: The aim of the study was to investigate the satisfaction of individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) with a homeopathic service at an SCI rehabilitation center. Patients and Methods: A cross-sectional questionnaire study was performed at an SCI rehabilitation center in Switzerland. It included patients with chronic SCI who presented themselves to a homeopathic service offered by the hospital in a 12-months period. The participants filled in standardized questionnaires in German: “Measure Yourself Medical Outcome Profile” (MYMOP), Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9), the European Project on Patient Evaluation of General Practice Care (EUROPEP) questionnaire, and a self-administered questionnaire. Results: The data of 14 patients were analyzed. Symptom severity as well as bother by the symptoms that led to homeopathic treatment decreased under homeopathic treatment (severity: from 4.3 to 3.3; bother: from 4.2 to 2.9) and remained lower over time (severity: 2.6; bother: 2.7), suggesting a sustained effect. Irrespective of the test instrument used, satisfaction rates were higher for homeopathic service than for homeopathic medication, which was rated as successful by 50% of the participants. Conclusion: Persons with SCI suffering from secondary complications of SCI who accessed homeopathic care reported high satisfaction rates with the service. Therefore, homeopathic service can be considered as an additive measure in persons with SCI suffering from recurrent symptoms.

β-catenin attenuation leads to up-regulation of activating NKG2D ligands and tumor regression in BrafV600E -driven thyroid cancer cells

Introduction BRAFV600E mutations frequently occur in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). β-catenin, encoded by CTNNB1, is a key downstream component of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway and is often overexpressed in PTC. BRAFV600E -driven PTC tumors rely on Wnt/β-catenin signaling to sustain growth and progression. Methods In the present study, we investigated the tumorigenicity of thyroid cancer cells derived from BRAFV600E PTC mice following Ctnnb1 ablation (BVE-Ctnnb1null ). Results Remarkably, the tumorigenic potential of BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells was lost in nude mice. Global gene expression analysis of BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells showed up-regulation of NKG2D receptor activating ligands (H60a, H60b, H60c, Raet1a, Raet1b, Raet1c, Raet1d, Raet1e, and Ulbp1) and down-regulation of inhibitory MHC class I molecules H-2L and H-2K2 in BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells. In vitro cytotoxicity assay demonstrated that BVE-Ctnnb1wt tumor cells were resistant to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity, whereas BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells were sensitive to NK cell-mediated killing. Furthermore, the overexpression of any one of these NKG2D ligands in the BVE-Ctnnb1wt cell line resulted in a significant reduction of tumor growth in nude mice. Conclusions Our results indicate that active β-catenin signaling inhibits NK cell-mediated immune responses against thyroid cancer cells. Targeting the β-catenin signaling pathway may have significant therapeutic benefits for BRAF-mutant thyroid cancer by not only inhibiting tumor growth but also enhancing host immune surveillance.
Validity of Student Worksheets Based on Model Argument Driven Inquiry Integrated by STEM to Train Students' Argumentation Ability and Self-Efficacy in Chemical Equilibrium Material

Objective: One of the teaching materials that can increase students' interest and learning motivation is student worksheet with an interesting learning model. This study aims to: (1) train students' argumentation abilities when they want to express their opinions regarding chemical equilibrium material and (2) train students' self-efficacy by bringing opinions related to equilibrium material. Method: The research method refers to the 4D model, namely definition, design, development, and deployment. However, it is only limited to the third stage. The data collection technique used the validation method by three validators, namely two chemistry lecturers and one high school chemistry teacher. The instruments used to assess the validity of the student worksheet are content validity sheets and construct validity sheets. The data obtained is then processed using the agreement percentage formula. Results: student worksheet 1, student worksheet 2, and student worksheet 3 are feasible in terms of content and construction validity with very valid categories. This is evidenced by the agreement percentage value on each student worksheet which is above 75%. Novelty: student worksheet modeled on STEM-integrated ADI will be developed to train students' argumentation skills and self-efficacy. This novelty can be assessed as being able to provide: (1) solutions related to students' interest in ideas on chemical equilibrium material, especially the sub-factors of shifting factors towards chemical equilibrium and (2) being able to increase students' confidence when conveying their ideas or other actions.
Dynamics and superconductivity in compressed lanthanum superhydride

Recent computational studies have predicted that rare-earth superhydrides are promising high-temperature superconductors. Of these phases having very high hydrogen content ($\mathrm{X}{\mathrm{H}}_{n},ng6$, where X is the rare-earth atom) a cubic phase of lanthanum hydride, recently synthesized at 170 GPa and identified as $\mathrm{La}{{\mathrm{H}}_{10}}_{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}x}$, is in good agreement with theoretical predictions. The experiments found that the stability of the phase extended to lower pressure and a distorted form was found on decompression. Here we examine the nuclear quantum effects and anharmonic dynamics on $\mathrm{La}{\mathrm{H}}_{10}$, including the behavior of the hydrogen sublattice in comparison with the predicted atomic metallic hydrogen at higher pressure. We also examine the vibrational dynamics and electronic properties of a distorted lower pressure phase of $\mathrm{La}{\mathrm{H}}_{10}$ and find that superconducting ${T}_{c}$ decreases relative to cubic but remains relatively high (i.e., 229--245 K).
Evaluation of Sweet Pepper Varieties For Salinity Tolerance Based on Morpho- Physiological and Biochemical Attributes

Soil salinity is a big threat to the world and has become a major concern to agricultural productivity. Sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is a high value vegetable; due to its quality nutrition. Despite growing all over the country, its production is not so high in Bangladesh. As a popular crop and also available everywhere, some varieties of sweet pepper were put under this study to assess their salt tolerance level. A pot experiment was conducted at net house, Botanical Garden, BAU, Mymensingh during the period from November, 2020 to April, 2021A factorial with CRD (Completely Randomized Design) was applied, where Factor A consisted of six sweet pepper varieties and Factor B included three salinity levels. In the vegetative stage, most of the parameters showed significant variation with salinity levels among varieties except chlorophyll content. In case of physio-morphological traits, all the parameters were significantly reduced with increasing salinity levels. In case of biochemical attributes, leaf proline contents were significantly increased with the higher level of salinity. Among six varieties being examined under the study, Messi had a relatively higher tolerance level than other varieties and therefore can be recommended for salt tolerance breeding studies. SAARC J.

A correlation of 8-hour and 12-hour with 24-hour urinary protein among pregnant women with preeclampsia in a teaching hospital in South-Western Nigeria

Background and Objective: Proteinuria is one of the cardinal features of preeclampsia, which is a common and potentially severe complication of pregnancy. This study sought to determine how the quantitative measurement of urine protein from 8-hour and 12- hour samples correlate with that of a 24-hour sample in diagnosing preeclampsia. Materials and Methods: 52 eligible pregnant women with preeclampsia were recruited between April 2017 and April 2018. For each patient, having emptied the bladder at 0 hour, urine was collected into three different containers (containers 1, 2, 3) at 8th hour, 12th hour and 24th hour ensuring that the bladder was emptied into each container at hours 8, 12 and 24. Volumes of 8 hours urine (volume in container 1), 12 hours urine (total volume in containers 1 and 2), and 24 hours urine (total volumes in containers 1, 2 and 3) were measured and 5 ml aliquot respectively obtained from each sample for colorimetric analysis of urinary protein. Data was analyzed using the EPI Info software Results: A total of 52 patients completed the study. The mean gestational age was 33+ 2.82weeks. The mean 8-hour, 12-hour and 24-hour urinary protein values were 2.1+1.53, 2.3+1.52 and 3.1+1.89 respectively. There were significant correlations between the protein values of 8-and 12-hour urine samples with those of 24-hour urine samples Conclusion: 8-hour and 12-hour values of urine protein correlated positively with values in 24-hour samples and may be useful for initial assessment of cases of preeclampsia for prompt interventions.
Theoretical Framework for a Succinct Empirical Mode Decomposition

Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) lacks a strong theoretical support although extensively applied. We propose a theoretical framework for a succinct EMD in this work, with the assumption of invariant extrema locations for one IMF extraction. We define the envelope mean filter (EMF) and prove that the filter matrix satisfies five properties. The sifting matrix is convergent to an idempotent matrix. An IMF is the projection of the input signal on the generalized eigenspace of the EMF matrix. An IMF is orthogonal to the residual signal, but different IMFs have no orthogonality. With numerical experiments on different signals, our framework achieves similar results to the classic EMD.
Evaluation of the Effect of Platelet Rich Plasma on the Rate of Maxillary First Molars Distalization; A Randomized Clinical Trial

Objective to evaluate the effect of platelet rich plasma (PRP) on the rate of maxillary first molars distalization. Materials and methods: twenty class II subjects of age range between 19-30 years who required bilateral maxillary first molars distalization as a part of their orthodontic treatment were randomly allocated into two equal groups: PRP group and control group. Distalization was carried out with a miniscrew implant-aided modified transpalatal bar appliance. The PRP group received PRP injection on the day of distalization appliance placement. Digital models were obtained every four weeks to evaluate the rate of maxillary first molars distal movement for a period of six months. Results: the control group showed a statistically significant higher rate of distal movement of the first molars compared to the PRP group from the third to the sixth month of the study. Conclusion: The PRP did not accelerate the rate of maxillary first molars distalization. It rather decreased the rate of distalization
Multivariate statistical algorithms for landslide susceptibility assessment in Kailash Sacred landscape, Western Himalaya

Abstract Landslide susceptibility mapping plays an imperative role in mitigating hazards and determining the future direction of developmental activities in mountainous regions. Here, we used 518 landslide occurrences and nine landslide-conditioning parameters to build landslide vulnerability models in the Kailash Sacred Landscape (KSL), India. Four multivariate statistical models were applied, namely the generalized linear model (GLM), maximum entropy (MaxEnt), Mahalanobis D2 (MD), and support vector machine (SVM), to calibrate and compare four maps of landslide susceptibility. The results demonstrated the outperformance of Mahalanobis D2 for predictability compared to other models obtained from the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The ensemble model data shows that 10.5% of the landscape has susceptible conditions for future landslides, whereas 89.50% of the landscape falls under the safe zone. The occurrence of landslides in the KSL is linked to the middle elevations, vicinity to water bodies, and the motorable roads. Furthermore, the observed patterns and the resulting models exhibit the major variables that cause landslides and their respective significance. The current modelling approach could provide baseline data at the regional scale to improve the developmental planning in the KSL.
Microbial Quality of Fresh Beef from Different Slaughter Facilities in Oyo State, Nigeria

This study was done to assess the microbial quality of fresh beef samples, water and contact surfaces from selected slaughter facilities in Oyo state, Nigeria. In a completely randomized design, a total of 127 samples were collected from three different slaughter facilities. They were analyzed for microbial load using standard procedures. Parameters measured were Total Viable Count (TVC), Total Coliform Count (TCC), Total Fungal Count (TFC), Total Escherichia coli Count (TEC), Total Staphylococcus Count (TSC) and Total Salmonella Count (TSLC). The results showed no significant differences (P<0.05) between the mean TVC and TFC of the fresh meat samples collected from the slaughter facilities. However, significant differences existed (P<0.05) between the means of the TCC (log CFU/g) of the beef. The values were 2.30, 1.82 and 10 1.91 for Akinyele central abattoir, Kara Sawmill slaughter slab and Atenda slaughter slab respectively. The TVC, TFC, TCC values recorded for this study were below the standard threshold levels. The presence of Staphylococcus spp, Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp on contact surfaces indicates that the hygienic practices of butchers and general sanitary conditions of the slaughter house facilities are poor, therefore stricter hygiene practices are recommended in Nigerian slaughter houses and abattoirs to safeguard public health.
On moving frames and Toda lattices of BKP and CKP types

This paper is mainly concerned with the geometric formulations of Toda lattices of BKP and CKP types as evolutions of invariants and their explicit expressions. The theory for discrete curves in centro-affine geometry is constructed by using the method of a moving frame. With the help of orthogonal polynomial theory, we choose the appropriate evolutions for the curves and the evolutions induced on invariants are related to these Toda-type lattices. In addition, the explicit expressions for the discrete invariant curve flows, discrete moving frames and Maurer–Cartan invariants are provided.

Quasi-hereditary covers and derived equivalences of higher zigzag algebras

In this thesis we look at higher zigzag algebras Zds of type A as a generalization of Brauer tree algebras whose tree is a line. We recall the presentation of these algebras as path algebras with relations and their relation with higher preprojective algebras of d- representation finite and Koszul algebras. The algebras Zds are not Koszul, since simple modules do not have linear projective resolutions. To overcome this lack of regularity we give an explicit construction of a quasi-hereditary cover for Zds as a quotient algebra of Zds+1 and we study different Koszul properties of these quasi-hereditary algebras. We prove that they are Koszul in the classical sense, standard Koszul and, endowed with an appropriate grading, Koszul with respect to the standard module ∆. This more general Koszul property leads to a well-defined notion of duality, generalizing the classical Koszul duality. We will show that the ∆-Koszul dual of our quasi-hereditary cover is again a Koszul algebra in the classical sense. Using the fact that Koszul algebras are quadratic we will be able to give a presentation of the ∆-Koszul dual algebras as path algebras with relations. The last chapter of this thesis will be about derived Morita theory and silting objects for higher zigzag algebras. Since in the case of Brauer tree algebras the Okuyama{ Rickard method to obtain two-term tilting complexes leads to the complete classification of the derived equivalence class, we focus our attention on two-term tilting complexes in the derived category Db(Zd s ). For Zds we give a more explicit description of irreducible Okuyama-Rickard mutations of Zds. To conclude we describe the derived equivalence class of Z23 by showing all the algebras derived equivalent to it.
Incidence and Severity of Virus Diseases of Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) Under Varying Planting Density and Insecticidal Spray Regimes

Viral diseases are a major problem for cowpea production in Nigeria, causing yield reductions of up to 100%. To combat this, farmers use insecticide sprays and manipulate plant population densities. A field experiment was conducted in the Southern Guinea Savannah agro-ecological zone of Nigeria in 2016 cropping season to assess the impact of planting density and insecticidal spray regimes on virus diseases in cowpea. The study found that the lowest disease incidence (32.2%) was observed at a density of 25×75 cm, and the highest (41.9%) at a density of 75×75 cm. The combination of a density of 25×7 5cm with three insecticidal spray regimes had the lowest incidence (18.6%), while 75×75 cm with no insecticidal spray had the highest (66.5%) disease incidence. Thus, it is recommended to use a planting density of 25×75 cm with three insecticidal spray regimes. This study emphasizes the importance of planting density and insecticidal spray regimes in managing viral diseases in cowpea production. Farmers can utilize this information to reduce disease incidence and severity and increase yield.
