Some issues on coordinate transformations of T‐S fuzzy models

As a mathematical model to represent the dynamics of a plant to be controlled, the T‐S fuzzy model is widely used in the control system design. In order to facilitate controller design, it sometimes needs suitable coordinate transformations of the T‐S fuzzy model. Subsequently, some questions arise: (1) can local systems in different fuzzy rules perform different coordinate transformations? if yes, then (2) is the transformed T‐S fuzzy model equivalent to its original one? In answering these questions, this paper at first gives a brief review on the T‐S fuzzy model to catch the real meaning of local systems in the context of the whole system expressed by the T‐S fuzzy model. Then, bearing controller design in mind it discusses the equivalence between pre‐ and transformed systems in various types of T‐S fuzzy models. Finally, in order to share the benefits from the results discussed in this paper, a controller design based on an affine T‐S fuzzy model is provided. © 2020 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.

Women’s strategic use of clothing and make-up

Clothing and make-up signal a wide range of characteristics including age, sex and sexual motivation. The present study examined the change from daywear to clothing/make-up worn in preparation for a ‘night out’ that would include a visit to a nightclub in over one hundred young women living in the UK. Amounts of flesh exposed were derived from photographs of participants and intensity of make-up products used determined using the ‘Methuen handbook of colour’. Results showed marked increases in amounts of flesh exposed, heel heights of shoes, use of a wider range of makeup products and increases in the colour intensity of many of those products, particularly those used on the lips and eyes. It is concluded that the young women in this study prepared themselves for a ‘night out’ that would include a visit to a nightclub in ways designed to maximise the rich opportunities to attract the attention of potential sexual partners provided by such venues.

Intellectual humility in conversation: Distinct behavioral indicators of self and peer ratings

ABSTRACT Intellectual humility (IH) has been proposed to be a critical factor facilitating civil discourse. However, wide variability exists concerning what IH actually entails. In this paper, we report a pair of studies investigating how self-ratings and peer-ratings of IH differ in terms of their behavioral associations. In Study 1, students provided round-robin judgments of peers following months of cooperative course work. Self-reported IH was associated with both self-rated and peer-rated openness, whereas peer judgments were primarily associated with self-rated and peer-rated agreeableness. In Study 2, small groups from a community sample were formed for 30-minute conversations about a contentious sociopolitical issue. These recorded interactions revealed that although self-reported IH was associated with high levels of engagement, peer-reported IH was characterized by low negativity and positive, supportive statements. These studies provide evidence that the social and epistemic dimensions of IH are used differently when forming either self or peer judgments.
Impact of phytase on improving the utilisation of pelleted broiler diets containing olive by-products

Abstract A feeding trial was run to assess the effect of olive cake (OC) in pelleted diets at 0, 10 and 15% with or without 500 FTU/kg diet of a bacterial E. coli phytase (BECP) for broiler chickens during early growth phase period (7–28 days of age). The experimental set up including six treatments as 3 OC levels × 2 supplementations (no enzyme and 500 FTU of BECP). Each treatment was replicated eight times, having five male chickens each. Phytase supplementation significantly increased growth rate and improved production index regardless of the level of OC. Inclusion of OC in broiler diets at 10 and 15% did not significantly affect growth rate, European production index and economic efficiency irrespective of BECP supplementation. In addition, phytase supplementation significantly increased growth rate, European production index and economic efficiency, irrespective of OC level. Plasma cholesterol and triglycerides were decreased considerably due to phytase supplementation to 10 and 15% OC diets. In addition, phytase supplementation significantly increased plasma inorganic phosphorus of broiler fed different levels of OC, and economic efficiency of broilers fed 10% OC, and decreased plasma triglycerides and cholesterol of 10 and 15% OC diets. In conclusion, broiler chickens during early growth stage can be fed pelleted diet contained up to 15% OC with or with BECP supplementation, without adverse effects on growth performance, carcase characteristics, plasma lipid profiles, while phytase supplementation to 10% OC diets yield the highest return over cost and economic efficiency. Highlights This investigation highlights the use of phytase to improve oil cake utilisation in pelleted broiler diets; the essential findings are: • Inclusion of olive cake in broiler diets at 10 and 15% did not significantly affect growth rate, European production index and economic efficiency irrespective of phytase supplementation. • Phytase supplementation significantly improved, growth, European production index, and economic efficiency, regardless of OC level. • Phytase supplementation also markedly increased plasma inorganic phosphorus of broiler fed different levels of OC, and economic efficiency of broilers fed 10% OC, regardless of olive cake level. • Plasma cholesterol and triglycerides were significantly decreased due to phytase supplementation to 10 and 15% olive cake diets. • Phytase supplementation to 10% olive cake diets yields the highest return over cost and economic efficiency

Optimisation of edge quality on stainless steel 316L using low power fibre laser beam machining

ABSTRACT In the manufacturing industry critical importance lies upon the dimensional accuracy of a machining part especially for precision assembly operation in sheet metal cutting. But the converging diverging shape of the laser beam profile causes the existence of kerf taper in laser cut specimen. Use of low power fibre laser beam machining in the order of 50 watt makes it extremely difficult to perform good quality cut on stainless steel sheet metal. Cutting wedge angle, a relatively uncommon process variable performs a critical role for the determination of unevenness in kerf characteristic. Cutting result of kerf taper with a 50-watt fibre laser is presented in this investigation. The purpose of the investigation is to reveal the ability of the low power fibre laser to cut stainless steel AISI 316 L with 1 mm thickness. The effect of the cutting wedge angle and other process variables like power, duty cycle, pulse frequency and scanning speed has been analysed through an application of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with CCD technique. Validation of experiments on the proposed model reveals that adjustment of proper process parameters can optimise the required edge quality.

Conventional and Emerging Extraction Processes of Flavonoids

Flavonoids are a group of plant constituents called phenolic compounds and correspond to the nonenergy part of the human diet. Flavonoids are found in vegetables, seeds, fruits, and beverages such as wine and beer. Over 7000 flavonoids have been identified and they have been considered substances with a beneficial action on human health, particularly of multiple positive effects because of their antioxidant and free radical scavenging action. Although several studies indicate that some flavonoids have provident actions, they occur only at high doses, confirming in most investigations the existence of anti-inflammatory effects, antiviral or anti-allergic, and their protective role against cardiovascular disease, cancer, and various pathologies. Flavonoids are generally removed by chemical methods using solvents and traditional processes, which besides being expensive, involve long periods of time and affect the bioactivity of such compounds. Recently, efforts to develop biotechnological strategies to reduce or eliminate the use of toxic solvents have been reported, reducing processing time and maintaining the bioactivity of the compounds. In this paper, we review, analyze, and discuss methodologies for biotechnological recovery/extraction of flavonoids from agro-industrial residues, describing the advances and challenges in the topic.
FREQUENCY OF CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE USING CALCIUM SCORING BY 640 SLICE CT

Coronary artery disease is the narrowing of coronary arteries which is usually caused by the atherosclerosis that leads to restriction of blood flow to the heart muscles. Atherosclerosis is a buildup of plaque or deposition of fats on the inner walls of arteries and is calculated by calcium scoring. Calcium scoring is a test to assess the presence and degree of plaque in the coronary arteries. Objective: To find the frequency of coronary artery disease using calcium scoring by 640 slice CT. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted at Punjab Institute of Cardiology, Lahore. 155 participants including 117 (75.5%) males and 38 (24.5%) females were selected through convenient sampling technique. SPSS version 21.0 was used for data analysis. Results: Analysis of data showed that out of 155 patients, 54 (34%) patients had no lesion and 101 (65.2%) had CAD. Only 2 patients had 5 lesions. Out of 117 males, 38 had no plaque and 40 males had moderate plaque in coronary arteries. Out of 38 females, 16 female patients had no plaque, 5 female patients had moderate plaque. 99 (63.9%) patients were non-smokers, out of them, 46 patients had no plaque and 17 patients had moderate plaque. 56 (36.1%) patients were smokers, out of these 8 had no plaque and 28 patients had moderate plaque. In total 103 (66.5%) patients who were hypertensive, 28 patients had no plaque, 36 had moderate plaque. Out of 52 (33.5%) patients who were without hypertension, 26 patients had no plaque, 36 patients had moderate plaque. Out of 155, 94 (60.6%) patients had diabetes, out of these 27 patients had no plaque, 32 patients had moderate plaque. Of 61 (39.4%) patients with diabetes, 27 had no plaque, 13 were with moderate plaque. 52 patients who were between the age of 26-35 years, 18 patients had no plaque, 14 patients had moderate plaque and of 8 patients between the age of 66-75 years, 3 had moderate plaque. Conclusions: In our sample the ratio of males was greater than females. In males, moderate plaques are most common and most of the females are those with no plaque. 54 % patients have no plaque and only 3 patients have minimal plaque. Smokers were least affected. It is concluded that hypertension affects the population more than any other risk factor. From our study it is also concluded that the people within the age range of 26 to 35 years are most likely to develop CAD Key words: Computed Tomography, Calcium Scoring, Coronary Artery Disease DOI: 10.7176/JHMN/71-13 Publication date: February 29 th 2020

Uma alternativa viavel para a destinacao dos dejetos liquidos de suinos (DLS) e a distribuicao como biofertilizantes em solos cultivados, apos um adequado tratamento. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar as alteracoes nos atributos microbianos de um solo cultivado com cafe apos aplicacao de diferentes doses de dejetos liquidos de suinos tratados em sistema de lagoas de estabilizacao em serie. O estudo foi realizado na Fazenda Yamaguchi em um Argissolo Vermelho Amarelo no municipio de Diamantina, Minas Gerais. Os tratamentos foram constituidos de aplicacao de 0, 125, 250, 500 kg ha-1 N na forma de efluentes e 250 kg ha-1 de sulfato de amonia (convencional) em solo cultivado com cafe. As amostras de solo foram coletadas, na camada de 0-10 cm de profundidade, nas seguintes epocas: antes, 30, 60 e 90 dias apos a adubacao. Foram avaliados a producao do cafeeiro, a respiracao basal e o carbono da biomassa microbiana, e determinado o quociente metabolico. As amostras de 60 e 90 dias apos a adubacao apresentou diferenca em relacao a amostra controle, favorecendo incrementos na biomassa e na atividade microbiana. Observa-se que a aplicacao de 125 kg de N ha ano-1 ano-1 de DLS e a melhor dose, por apresentar producao significativamente equivalente a produtividade de graos da dosagem de 250 kg de N ha ano-1 de SA. Desse modo, em longo prazo, as aplicacoes consecutivas de dejetos liquidos de suinos, em solo cultivado com cafe, tendem a melhorar os atributos microbianos do solo. Os DLS podem ser utilizados junto com a adubacao convencional para a cultura do cafe.
Internal audits in the digital era: opportunities risks and challenges

The aim of this study is to examine continuous auditing in the digital age from the perspective of audit firm employees. It also investigates contemporary factors affecting continuous auditing, as well as the techniques that could be utilised for its implementation. ,Internal audit departments of private companies were contacted via email and given a questionnaire developed based on the extant literature. The sample consisted of 105 individuals employed in the largest audit institutions in Greece. Data were analysed using multiple regression. ,As expected, technological advances are indispensable for the establishment of an effective digital auditing system. The impact of data protection measures against cyber-attacks as well as employees' skills and training were found to be significant. Particular attention should be given to the preparation and building of virtual auditing teams. ,The fact that the digital era is still nascent with its final outcomes not yet visible makes it difficult to produce accurate predictions and draw conclusions. Further, there is a need to survey salient stakeholders in other country contexts beyond Greece pursuant of producing generalisable results. ,The actions taken by companies to ensure cyber security and the formation of virtual teams were found to be highly significant for the implementation of a real-time auditing process. Traditionally, factors such as cost and time play an important role in optimising internal continuous auditing. Technological advancements combined with careful, strategic and case-specific implementation have the potential to enhance the efficacy of older methods. ,The positive propensity of staff to adopt technology and modern techniques illustrates how implementation difficulties can be overcome through the redefinition and scheduling of an organisation's objectives and training of its personnel. ,Audit firm employees highlighted the protection of personal data, the avoidance of cyber-attacks and training as major continuous internal auditing goals. The results indicate acceptance towards technology and modern techniques, provided companies ensure adequate preparation and staff training conditions.
Reconceiving the Gene: Seymour Benzer's Adventures in Phage Genetics

This book relates how, between 1954 and 1961, the biologist Seymour Benzer mapped the fine structure of the rII region of the genome of the bacterial virus known as phage T4. Benzer's accomplishments are widely recognized as a tipping point in mid-twentieth-century molecular biology when the nature of the gene was recast in molecular terms. More often than any other individual, he is considered to have led geneticists from the classical gene into the molecular age. Drawing on Benzer's remarkably complete record of his experiments, his correspondence, and published sources, this book reconstructs how the former physicist initiated his work in phage biology and achieved his landmark investigation. The account of Benzer's creativity as a researcher is a fascinating story that also reveals intriguing aspects common to the scientific enterprise.
Density-dependent prophylaxis in insects

Parasites and pathogens are a ubiquitous threat facing all organisms. Life history theory predicts that if investment in parasite resistance mechanisms is costly (as suggested by numerous studies), then organisms should tailor their investment in them to match their perceived risk of infection. Because most parasites are transmitted in a positively density-dependent manner, the threat from parasites tends to increase as population density increases. As a result, it is predicted that organisms should use population density as a cue to the risk of becoming infected and should increase investment in disease resistance mechanisms as the degree of crowding increases—this is known as density-dependent prophylaxis (DDP). This phenomenon has been experimentally tested in a number of insect species, and in most cases support for the DDP hypothesis has been forthcoming. DDP is likely to be particularly prevalent in species exhibiting density-dependent phase polyphenism (i.e. the phenotype adopted by the insect is plastic and dependent on the population density it experiences during its early development). We discuss the hormonal and genetic mechanisms underlying phase polyphenism and DDP, and speculate on the circumstances leading to their evolution. We end by discussing how future research into DDP might develop.
Research on Improved Visualization Method of Space Time Cube

 Abstract —Spatial temporal data refers to data with geographical location and time label. It has the characteristics of multi-source, massive quantity and fast update. It is a typical big data type. Spatial temporal data analysis is one of the core issues in the field of big data research. In order to better demonstrate the process and results of spatial temporal data analysis, visual processing has become one of the important ways of analysis. The analysis of spatial temporal big data through visualization technology can provide insight into the overall picture and main features of big data. However, when using the visualization technology to analyze large-scale spatial temporal data, the characteristics of spatial temporal big data are not considered, so there are often line-intensive and overlapping coverage problems in the visualization results. This paper proposes an improved space time cube visualization method to solve the above problems. First, cluster the spatial temporal data and then use the space time cube visualization method to display the clustered data. The clustering algorithm used is the sub-trajectory clustering. The experimental results show that the improved space time cube visualization technology has obvious visual effects and clear global
