Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors in Controllability Analysis
Authors: K. George Raju , Ajayakumar Abhijith
Published: December 2024

This chapter demonstrates the effectiveness of spectral theory in analyzing controllability property of linear and non-linear systems. System design, which is at the core of control system theory, relies heavily on spectral properties of the system matrices. With the aid of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, the state, input, and output matrices can be chosen so that the system behaves in a desired manner. We start by introducing the notion of controllability for linear time-variant (LTI) systems in terms of the spectral properties of the controllability Gramian derived from the state transition matrix of the system. We also define steering control using eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the controllability Gramian, which steers the system from an arbitrary initial state to a desired final state. For LTI systems, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the state matrix are used to characterize controllable and observable systems. Key concepts such as the Popov-Belevitch-Hautus(PBH) eigenvector test and Kalman’s rank condition are introduced to illustrate how these spectral tools guide the analysis and design of control systems. For nonlinear systems, the spectral properties of the controllability Gramian help in developing a computational algorithm for steering control. This chapter explores how spectral methods help in developing suitable control strategies and give a better understanding of system dynamics and system design.

Authors: Ngan Nguyen Huynh Kim , Van Thi Nguyen Ngoc , Tuyet Ngan Duong
Published: December 2024

Phenolic compounds are one of the major classes of secondary metabolites found in plants with enormous diversity of chemical structures and biological activities. They are classified into four main classes: phenolic acids, flavonoids, stilbenes, and lignans, and these compounds are unequally distributed in plant species with varied stability. Therefore, it is obviously necessary to select a proper extraction and analysis method to guarantee a high-yield extraction process and accurate analysis results. In recent years, more and more scientists have paid attention to either conventional or innovative methods for recovering phenolic compounds from the sample matrix. In order to give an overview of recent studies about phenolic compounds, this review will mainly focus on extraction and analysis methods and discuss some research directions that will receive more attention in the near future.
Evaluating MIMO and Massive MIMO Performance with Rayleigh, Rician, and Nakagami Fading Channels along with Comparing Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex Modes Using HMR Protocol
Authors: Joann Daphney , Rajamani Vayanaperumal
Published: December 2024

Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology enhances wireless communication by utilizing multiple antennas, thus simplifying resource allocation through Time Division Multiplexing (TDM). MIMO effectively overcomes bandwidth limitations with channel state information (CSI) and multiple antennas. Massive MIMO (mMIMO), which employs large-scale antenna systems, further improves channel capacity, throughput, and energy efficiency. The performance of MIMO and Massive MIMO is evaluated across various channels. A new protocol, Heterogeneous Multiplex Relay (HMR), is proposed to enhance spectrum efficiency (SE) in MIMO systems using both Half Duplex (HD) and Full Duplex (FD) modes. The HMR protocol focuses on selecting relays between HD and FD to combat fading, thereby achieving both diversity and multiplexing gains. In Massive MIMO, the protocol incorporates Opportunistic Relay Selection, requiring minimal feedback for relay and mode selection. The max-min criteria identify the best channel, facilitating optimal relay selection. Additionally, Coded Cooperation and Successive Interference Cancelation (SIC) are considered to mitigate the loss of multiplexing gain. Simulations demonstrate that the HMR protocol achieves 80% capacity performance by efficiently allocating pathways connecting HD and FD. Compared to Rayleigh, Rician, and Nakagami Fading Channels, it also exhibits better Bit Error Rate (BER) versus Signal- to-Noise Ratio (SNR) performance.
Technological Advances in Cancer Cytogenetics
Authors: Kumar Dey Subrata
Published: December 2024

The field of cytogenetics has witnessed significant changes due to constant evolution of new methodologies for the detection of chromosomal alterations in number and structure. The discovery of Philadelphia chromosome in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) ushered in new era in cancer cytogenetics. Classical cytogenetics is based on G-banded chromosome analysis and karyotyping, which can detect alterations in structure and number of chromosomes in a diploid set. Subsequent development of molecular cytogenetic techniques such as Fluorescence In situ Hybridization (FISH) where fluorescent dye-labelled DNA probes are used to identify chromosome rearrangements at metaphase or interphase stage. On the other hand, Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) technique is applied for the detection of copy number variations. It is used to detect chromosomal aberrations such as deletions, additions and ploidy abnormalities, whereas array CGH compares two differentially fluorescent labelled test and reference samples simultaneously at multiple loci. The major advantage of this technique is that it can detect deletions and duplications at submicroscopic level. Furthermore, genome sequencing technology has also been applied to understand the mutational signatures in the origin of different types of cancer. The present review traces the evolution of cytogenetic techniques in the detection of genomic alterations in cancer.
Electrical Conductivity Estimation in the Medina River, Texas, USA: An Integrated Approach Using Wavelet Analysis and Machine Learning Techniques
Authors: Khani Salar , Khademi Shiraz Neda
Published: December 2024

Electrical conductivity (EC) is an important indicator for monitoring water quality in riverine systems. EC is inherently associated with the concentration of dissolved ionic compounds present in aqueous environments, including various salts and minerals. EC estimations are crucial for environmental monitoring and the overall health assessment of aquatic ecosystems. The present study investigated the application of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) in conjunction with artificial neural networks (ANNs) and multiple linear regression (MLR) models to predict daily river water EC. For this purpose, daily river discharge (Q) and EC time series from a hydrology station on the Medina River in San Antonio, Texas, USA, were used. DWT was used to decompose the daily data into several subseries. Then, to estimate one-day-ahead EC values, these subseries were introduced to the ANN and MLR models. To assess the prediction accuracy of the improved wavelet-neural network (WANN) and wavelet-regression (WR) models, EC estimation was also carried out using MLR and ANN models with the original data. Both the WANN and WR techniques outperformed single MLR and ANN methods. A comparison of the results indicated that the WR model had superior performance than the WANN, MLR, and ANN models for daily EC prediction. The R2 values for the WR, WANN, MLR, and ANN models were 0.92, 0.87, 0.74, and 0.74, respectively. For the WR model, the root-mean-square error (RMSE) was 45.55, 46.08, and 25.19% less than those presented by the MLR, ANN, and WANN models, respectively. By the application of the WR method, an accurate daily EC estimator formula was obtained as well. The WR model also satisfactorily simulated the hysteresis in EC, demonstrating the effectiveness of wavelet analysis in extracting essential information embedded in original data.
The Neuroscience of Psychological Well-Being and Flourishing
Authors: Mohapel Paul
Published: December 2024

This chapter highlights some of the current literature around how neuroscience informs the conditions necessary for psychological well-being and flourishing. Three conditions associated with flourishing are explored in context within the brain: (1) mindfulness, (2) compassion, and (3) creativity. Mindfulness is an essential component in establishing states of flourishing by modulating specific structural and functional networks of the brain that are associated with modulating our awareness to our thoughts, emotions, and mind wandering. Compassion is an extension of mindfulness, whereby brain regions involved in the reward network generate positive emotions and feelings of social connection that compel us to act on the behalf of others. For creativity, the neural evidence suggests that a balance of specific neural circuits allows us to toggle between focused concentration and mind-wandering states, which manifest qualities of openness, curiosity, and flexibility. Identifying these neural substrates helps elucidate the states of human well-being and offers strategies to facilitate flourishing.

Published: December 2024

This chapter discusses the protective role of specific resilience-related psychological variables for healthy adolescent development in terms of increasing well-being and positive resources. The topics of self-development, emotional inter-regulation, self-compassion (sense of common humanity, self-compassion, and hyper-individuation), and resilience will be addressed by discussing the results of a pre-post study conducted in a school setting with N = 400 students (mean age = 15.47; SD = 1.79) who participated in the neuropsychopedagogical training “Envisioning the Future” based on the Sphere Model of Consciousness. Among other things, a mediation model is presented, showing that self-efficacy in managing negative emotions predicts resilience through the effect of a sense of common humanity. Thus, resilience is no longer just about not being overwhelmed by negative emotions but also about connecting with self and others. This perspective emphasizes the goal of strengthening positive relational and behavioral resources to improve well-being in the school environment.

Published: December 2024

Lunayyir Volcanic Field is one of the youngest (~600 ka to Historic) Cenozoic mafic intracontinental volcanic fields in the western margin of the Arabian Microplate. It consists of about 150 volcanic edifices that worked around 700 vents indicating strong vent alignments and potential longevity of activity to build each of its volcanoes. The volcanoes are strongly aligned following the Neoproterozoic basement structure determining the surface valley network that commonly captured lava flows. The volcanoes are typical magmatic effusive and explosive types of volcanoes ranging from minor fissure vents of spatter ramparts to complex multi-crater scoria cones. Effusive hazards are dominated by transitional lava flows with restricted pāhoehoe and ‘a‘ā lava emplacement while explosive eruptions are spatter cone formation with lava fountaining, scoria cone growth and destruction, paroxysmal sub-Plinian and/or violent Strombolian style activity, directed ballistic curtain formation and a possibility of development of passive volcanic fog (vog). According to these eruption types, effusive eruption scenarios are the most likely and long-term impactful events, while explosive eruptions are dominated by low intensity low impact scenarios. The area however shows evidence of extensive tephra blanket that explosive phases capable to reach volcanic explosivity index (VEI) 4 capable to carry ash away over 250 km.

The advancement in Internet of Things (IoT) technology has gained more interest for the development of smart technologies. Intuitively, a wireless sensor networks (WSN) enabled with low-rate data communication can be employed in smart technologies. However, the WSN employed for these technologies should meet the basic requirement for efficient communication among the nodes. The IEEE 802.15.4e standard operating in Deterministic and synchronous multichannel extension (DSME) mode can be adopted in WSN to enable multichannel data communication between the nodes. In this paper, an optimized DSME-guaranteed timeslot allocation (GTS) allocation algorithm is developed for WSN depending on the requirements such as bandwidth, delay, throughput, and network traffic. Furthermore, the algorithm is analyzed with performance parameters associated with the WSN. Finally, the proposed model is simulated using MATLAB 2023a programming tool.
A Bayesian-Network Approach for Assessing Security and Process Safety in the Petroleum Industry
Authors: Almolhis Nawaf Abdualaziz
Published: December 2024

One of the conditions for the petroleum (gas and oil) industry's continued existence in the future
may be a continuation of the trend towards fewer personnel at offshore installations and more data
flow between the two locations. Malicious attacks, also known as security attacks, often target
offshore gas and oil installations. These attacks can trigger a series of events such as the issue as
well as spread of harmful materials and/or fires, blasts as well as energy, resulting in harm to people,
the environment, and property. These effects might be just as devastating as those from big accidents
caused by more traditional safety-related factors. For evaluating the achievement of physical
security attacks probability, the current research uses a Bayesian Network (BN) technique that
combines Natural Language Processing (NLP). The process also considers the single structure of
the offshore gas and oil sector. In order to dynamically conduct risk assessments for safety and
security, Bayesian networks are quickly becoming a popular tool. These networks adjust the
previous disaster probability values to account for original data. Another benefit of Bayesian
networks is their ability to describe conditional dependency between events, as well as their handling
of variables with many states.

Published: December 2024

This study aims to determine the effect of Kahoot media on Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning interest of fourth grade students at SDN 15 Sutijo. The background of this study is the students' low interest in learning, which is shown by behaviors such as playing during learning, disturbing friends, leaving class, and sleeping in class. Although teachers have tried various innovations, the methods used have not succeeded in attracting students' attention. This study used a quantitative experimental approach with a pretest-posttest single group design. The study population consisted of 28 fourth grade students of SDN 15 Sutijo, which also became the sample through the total sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using paired sample t-test. The results showed that Kahoot media had a significant effect on increasing students' interest in learning. This is evidenced by the sig value of 0.002 (<0.05) and the t value of 3.418, greater than the t table of 2.052 (t> t table). Thus, Kahoot media is proven to be able to create interesting and effective learning to increase students' interest in learning PAI subjects.
A Simple Morphometric Analysis of Preoperative Therapy Response for Esophageal Adenocarcinoma
Authors: Ramineni Madhurya , Li Rena X. , Liao Xiaoyan , Hao Yansheng
Published: December 2024

Context.—

Histologic assessment of tumor regression grade (TRG) on esophagogastrectomy specimens after neoadjuvant therapy is an excellent predictor of local recurrence rate and long-term survival in esophageal adenocarcinomas. Although several grading systems exist globally, the modified Ryan system suggested by the College of American Pathologists (CAP) is widely used in North America. Most systems rely on quantitative percentage estimation of the residual tumor with or without additional qualitative descriptors, which is relatively subjective with poor interobserver agreement.

Objective.—

To test a morphometric-based approach using the microscopic objective lens to estimate the size of the largest focus of the residual tumor.

Design.—

A total of 69 esophageal specimens post neoadjuvant therapy were evaluated. Tumor size was morphometrically determined by the microscopic field, using an Olympus microscope with ×10/×22 eyepieces. Residual viable tumor was categorized into 4 groups, using ×2, ×4, and ×10 objectives: less than or equal to an ×10 field; larger than an ×10 field but less than or equal to an ×4 field; larger than an ×4 field but less than an ×2 field; and larger than or equal to an ×2 field.

Results.—

Morphometric measurements significantly correlated with the CAP treatment effect scores. There was no significant difference in overall survival between larger than or equal to ×2 and ×2 to ×4 groups; however, a 3-tier system (TRG1: ≤ ×10, TRG2: > ×10 and ≤ ×4, and TRG3: > ×4) showed significant survival differences (P = .01). Significant differences in the percentage of lymphovascular and perineural invasion, advanced TNM stage, and lymph node metastasis were identified among the 3 groups.

Conclusions.—

The proposed 3-tier morphometric approach based on microscopic field size is a simple and easy-to-use method, which helps stratify patients into 3 groups with distinct histopathologic features and overall survival.

Published: December 2024

This research aims to analyze the notary's responsibility for errors in deed preparation, which is a crucial aspect in legal practice in Indonesia. Notaries, as public officials who have the authority to make authentic deeds, play an important role in ensuring the validity of legal transactions. However, errors in making a deed can occur due to various factors, both internal and external, which have the potential to cause legal disputes and financial losses for the parties involved. This research uses a normative method with a qualitative approach to explore the legal norms that regulate the responsibilities of notaries and the implications of errors that may occur. Errors in making a deed can be categorized as typographical errors and substantive errors, each of which has a different impact on the legal force of the deed. Notary responsibilities can be seen from two perspectives, namely civil law and criminal law, depending on the nature of the error that occurred. Research findings show that there is a need to increase awareness of ethics and integrity in notary practice, as well as recommendations for improvements in the implementation of notary duties in order to maintain public trust in this profession. It is hoped that this research can provide a constructive contribution to the development of better notarial practices in Indonesia.
