DETRITAL ZIRCON AND MONAZITE AS A TOOL FOR RETROSPECTIVE MONITORING OF THE EARTH’S CONTINENTAL CRUST EVOLUTION: CURRENT PROBLEMS AND TASKS

Summary The existing global U-Pb age databases for zircons and monazites from rocks and large detrital populations were jointly analysed with the large original geochemical dataset. This dataset (whole-rock geochemistry, as well as single-grain trace element composition and total Pb age-dating of both minerals) obtained for Precambrian Ukrainian Shield (USh) rock associations, modern sediments and Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks from basins of USh periphery (accumulation reservoirs of eroded upper crustal material) yielded following results: (1) Distribution of SiO2, Zr and LREE in modern sediments and Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks is caused by two factors - sedimentary differentiation and sedimentary homogenization. Second factor erects a set of local contrast maximums in distributions, which reflect composition of upper continental crust. (2) It is vital to develop specialized criteria for zircon and monazite sampling, which can be based on a principle maximum conformity of SiO2, Zr and LREE concentrations in the drainage samples to evaluated concentrations in upper continental crust. (3) Interpretation of zircon and monazite data should take into account the mass of their grains and the concentration of both minerals in the source rocks. Application of this approach would significantly enhance reliability of further continental crust evolution study.

Move-to-Data: A new Continual Learning approach with Deep CNNs, Application for image-class recognition

In many real-life tasks of application of supervised learning approaches, all the training data are not available at the same time. The examples are lifelong image classification or recognition of environmental objects during interaction of instrumented persons with their environment, enrichment of an online-database with more images. It is necessary to pre-train the model at a "training recording phase" and then adjust it to the new coming data. This is the task of incremental/continual learning approaches. Amongst different problems to be solved by these approaches such as introduction of new categories in the model, refining existing categories to sub-categories and extending trained classifiers over them, ... we focus on the problem of adjusting pre-trained model with new additional training data for existing categories. We propose a fast continual learning layer at the end of the neuronal network. Obtained results are illustrated on the opensource CIFAR benchmark dataset. The proposed scheme yields similar performances as retraining but with drastically lower computational cost.

A Critical and Moving-Forward View on Quantum Image Processing

Physics and computer science have a long tradition of cross-fertilization. One of the latest outcomes of this mutually beneficial relationship is quantum information science, which comprises the study of information processing tasks that can be accomplished using quantum mechanical systems. Quantum Image Processing (QIMP) is an emergent field of quantum information science whose main goal is to strengthen our capacity for storing, processing, and retrieving visual information from images and video either by transitioning from digital to quantum paradigms or by complementing digital imaging with quantum techniques. The expectation is that harnessing the properties of quantum mechanical systems in QIMP will result in the realization of advanced technologies that will outperform, enhance or complement existing and upcoming digital technologies for image and video processing tasks.
GROUPING OF PROVINCES IN INDONESIA BASED ON MATERNAL HEALTH INDICATORS USING VARIABLE WEIGHTING K-MEANS AND FUZZY C-MEANS

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is an indicator used to assess maternal health as well as the health status of a country. MMR is a target that must be achieved by Indonesian Government in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2030. The Government of Indonesia has made various efforts to reduce MMR. This study aims to determine the distribution pattern of indicators for improving maternal health by grouping provinces in Indonesia based on the characteristics of maternal health indicators. The variables used are indicators that affect maternal mortality, namely K4 coverage (x1), Td2+ immunization coverage (x2), maternity assisted by health workers in health facilities coverage (x3), post-partum check up coverage (x4), Puskesmas implementing pregnant classes (x5), Puskesmas implementing P4K (x6), participant of KB coverage (x7) in Indonesia in 2017. The grouping methods are Variable Weighting K-Means (VWKM) and Fuzzy C-Means (FCM). The selection of the best grouping results uses the Internal Cluster Dispersion Rate (icdrate). Based on the analysis results, the best grouping is generated by the FCM method. The icdrate value generated by FCM is 0.325 while the icdrate value generated by VWKM is 0.552. FCM produces five groups which can be categorized as groups with maternal health indicator characteristics with very low, low, medium, high, and very high scores. Provinces in a group tend to be geographically close. East Java and Bali are provinces included in the indicator group of very high maternal health. Papua and West Papua fall into the group for maternal health which is very low.
The effect of teaching framework on implementation number of units in natural environmental education at elementary schools in Kansai area

In the primary educations, studies with experiential activities are expected that they will develop peoples who can take good care of nature. Although previous researches pointed out problems in conducting environmental education, they did not clarify measures to increase implementation number of units in natural environmental education. Therefore, this research analyzed teaching framework helpful to increase the implementation by targeting elementary schools of Kansai area. As a result, it became clear that it was effective to work on teaching in the whole school for improvement of the implementation number of units. However, having a teaching plan and improving teaching process were unrelated to increasing implementation number of units. Although, having a teaching plan has been thought effective to enrich natural environmental education, this result suggested that the current teaching plans did not function well. In order to increase implementation number of units, it seems necessary to share an educational goal by updating a teaching plan or by conducting an in-school training.

Federated Survival Analysis with Discrete-Time Cox Models.

Building machine learning models from decentralized datasets located in different centers with federated learning (FL) is a promising approach to circumvent local data scarcity while preserving privacy. However, the prominent Cox proportional hazards (PH) model, used for survival analysis, does not fit the FL framework, as its loss function is non-separable with respect to the samples. The naive method to bypass this non-separability consists in calculating the losses per center, and minimizing their sum as an approximation of the true loss. We show that the resulting model may suffer from important performance loss in some adverse settings. Instead, we leverage the discrete-time extension of the Cox PH model to formulate survival analysis as a classification problem with a separable loss function. Using this approach, we train survival models using standard FL techniques on synthetic data, as well as real-world datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), showing similar performance to a Cox PH model trained on aggregated data. Compared to previous works, the proposed method is more communication-efficient, more generic, and more amenable to using privacy-preserving techniques.
Educación sobre medios digitales: imprescindible para incentivar las interacciones positivas

espanolFormar en un uso consciente, positivo y critico de la tecnologia ayuda a descender las malas praxis, asi como a detectarlas y darles solucion. A partir del establecimiento de nueve topicos de analisis (ciberacoso, odio online, sexting, grooming, uso excesivo de internet, gambling, autenticacion de la informacion, ciberseguridad y privacidad), apuntamos la existencia de relaciones entre ellos, asi como una clasificacion que resulta util para la investigacion posterior. Seguidamente, mostramos los resultados de la encuesta realizada sobre 137 estudiantes universitarios para conocer su percepcion sobre la vision del profesorado en ejercicio, alumnado y familias sobre cada una de las tres categorias emergentes en la clasificacion previa. Los resultados muestran que la preocupacion, percepcion de peligro y aparicion es “bastante” entre profesorado y familias, mientras que “un poco – nada” entre el alumnado. La preparacion/formacion recibida para la resolucion bascula entre “un poco” para familias y profesorado y “nada” para el alumnado. EnglishTraining in a conscious, positive and critical use of technology helps to reduce malpractice, as well as to detect and solve them. From the establishment of nine analysis topics (cyberbullying, online hate, sexting, grooming, excessive use of the internet, gambling, information authentication, cybersecurity and privacy), we point out the existence of relationships between them, as well as a classification that results useful for further investigation. Next, we show the results of the survey conducted on 137 university students to know their perception of the vision of the teaching staff, students and families about each of the three emerging categories in the previous classification. The results show that the concern, perception of danger and appearance is “quite” between teachers and families, while “a little - nothing” among students. The preparation/training received for the resolution is between “a little” for families and teachers and “nothing” for students.

Low Distortion Block-Resampling with Spatially Stochastic Networks

We formalize and attack the problem of generating new images from old ones that are as diverse as possible, only allowing them to change without restrictions in certain parts of the image while remaining globally consistent. This encompasses the typical situation found in generative modelling, where we are happy with parts of the generated data, but would like to resample others ("I like this generated castle overall, but this tower looks unrealistic, I would like a new one"). In order to attack this problem we build from the best conditional and unconditional generative models to introduce a new network architecture, training procedure, and algorithm for resampling parts of the image as desired.
PrivyTRAC: Privacy and Security Preserving Contact Tracing System

Smartphone location-based methods have been proposed and implemented as an effective alternative to traditional labor intensive contact tracing methods. However, there are serious privacy and security concerns that may impede wide-spread adoption in many societies. Furthermore, these methods rely solely on proximity to patients, based on Bluetooth or GPS signal for example, ignoring lingering effects of virus, including COVID-19, present in the environment. This results in inaccurate risk assessment and incomplete contact tracing. A new system concept, called PrivyTRAC, preserves user privacy, increases security and improves accuracy of smartphone contact tracing. PrivyTRAC enhances users' and patients' privacy by letting users conduct self-evaluation based on the risk maps download to their smartphones. No user information is transmitted to external locations or devices, and no personally identifiable patient information is embedded in the risk maps as they are processed anonymized and aggregated locations of confirmed patients. The risk maps consider both spatial proximity and temporal effects to improve the accuracy of the infection risk estimation. Experiments conducted in the paper illustrate improvement of PrivyTRAC over proximity based methods in terms of true and false positives. An approach to further improve infection risk estimation by incorporating both positive and negative local test results from contacts of confirmed cases is also described.

Robert Sturua’s Stage Production of “King Lear”: Structure and Content

The article is devoted to the stage production of “King Lear” (1987. Shota Rustaveli Theatre. Tbilisi) by the internationally acclaimed director Robert Sturua. The work aims to show that critics interpreted the content of the production basing mainly on what was happening to the characters, i.e. essentially, on the play’s chain of events, not taking into account the structure of the stage play; it aims also to submit the author’s own interpretation of the stage production. As a result of the study, the analysis of the stage production’s composition has been conducted and its artistic content has been identified. The research is novel in that it is the first to study analytically one of the most prominent stage productions of the XX century. The findings will be of use to theatre theoreticians and practitioners and drama school teachers in lecture courses and seminar classes on history and theory of the drama theatre.
