Published: April 2021

Phishing is a serious web security problem, and the internet fraud technique involves mirroring genuine websites to trick online users into stealing their sensitive information and taking out their personal information, such as bank account information, usernames, credit card, and passwords. Early detection can prevent phishing behavior makes quick protection of personal information. Classification methods can be used to predict this phishing behavior. This paper presents an intelligent classification model for detecting Phishing by redefining a fuzzy soft set (FSS) theory for better computational performance. There are four types of similarity measures: (1) Comparison table, (2) Matching function, (3) Similarity measure, and (4) Distance measure. The experiment showed that the Similarity measure has better performance than the others in accuracy and recall, reached 95.45 % and 99.77 %, respectively. It concludes that FSS similarity measured is more precise than others, and FSS could be a promising approach to avoid phishing activities. This novel method can be implemented in social media software to warn the users as an early warning system. This model can be used for personal or commercial purposes on social media applications to protect sensitive data.

Published: April 2021

Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) between two countries is based on the law and regulation of each country in order to achieve respective national political goal and agendas. In this case study, the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste (or well known as “Timor-Leste”) nation state which was established on 28th November 1975 and the formation of the nation was the results of persistent and struggle of the people. They had struggled for as long as 450 years before obtained united, independent nation and sovereignty. After nine days of independence, on the 7 th December 1975, Indonesia asserted that Timor-Leste was the 27th province of the Republic of Indonesia. This incident took place after the withdrawal of the Portuguese colonies. However, Timor-Leste restored their independence on 20th May 2002 which was after 25 years of Indonesian occupancy. In this context, United Nations (UN) internationally recognized Timor-Leste as sovereign State and thereafter the 192th member state of the UN. The study islimited to the impacts of CIMIC programmes towards the Timor-Leste people. Besides that, limitation of data collection has emerged due to ADF’s reluctance to provide details and information which is related to the programmes conducted in certain period of time which has taken place from 1999 to 2006. This research is significant on the issues of human security, peacekeeping and CIMIC programmes in Timor-Leste. The lessons learnt from the ADF operations in Timor-Leste which could contribute to the policy planners of humanitarian interventions in other missions ahead in the future.

Left by the West? Academic Discourse on Corruption for a Better Social Resilience
Authors: Pernica Bohuslav , Pikhart Marcel
Published: April 2021

The paper deals with the topic of corruption that has been understood as a global social problem since the 1990s. Its theoretical background is rooted in the theory of social constructivism. Social constructivism highlights the social strategy in which increased social discourse about a particular topic implies and reflects a growing interest of the society in the topic to arouse a robust awareness of the issue as a social problem. It analyses academic journals and conference paper proceedings that appear in a well-known database of academic journals and texts, namely in Web of Science. The research follows PRISMA methodology and it was conducted as an analysis of the terms and collocations that are connected to the issue of corruption with the aim to identify relevant research papers which have appeared in Web of Science since 1995. The idea behind this analysis was not only to identify the journal papers and papers published as conference proceedings but to compare the results geographically with well-known officially acknowledged state and government data dealing with the issue of corruption, and then to look for connections between these two areas, i.e. academic and governmental data. The results show significant differences between post-communist countries versus the so-called West regarding how they present information about corruption in their academic discourse. Despite the fact that the West supports the East in its fight with corruption economically, it is not reflected sufficiently and adequately in the relevant academic discourse. This paper suggests that societal resilience against corruption can dramatically be supported by enhanced academic discourse about the topic that is still not sufficient. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2021-01266 Full Text: PDF

Authors: Yeruva Sagar , Varalakshmi M. Sharada , Gowtham B. Pavan , Chandana Y. Hari , Prasad PESN. Krishna
Published: April 2021

A molecule called hemoglobin is found in red blood cells that holds oxygen all over the body. Hemoglobin is elastic, round, and stable in a healthy human. This makes it possible to float across red blood cells. But the composition of hemoglobin is unhealthy if you have sickle cell disease. It refers to compact and bent red blood cells. The odd cells obstruct the flow of blood. It is dangerous and can result in severe discomfort, organ damage, heart strokes, and other symptoms. The human life expectancy can be shortened as well. The early identification of sickle calls will help people recognize signs that can assist antibiotics, supplements, blood transfusion, pain-relieving medications, and treatments etc. The manual assessment, diagnosis, and cell count are time consuming process and may result in misclassification and count since millions of red blood cells are in one spell. When utilizing data mining techniques such as the multilayer perceptron classifier algorithm, sickle cells can be effectively detected with high precision in the human body. The proposed approach tackles the limitations of manual research by implementing a powerful and efficient MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron) classification algorithm that distinguishes Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) into three classes: Normal (N), Sickle Cells(S) and Thalassemia (T) in red blood cells. This paper also presents the precision degree of the MLP classifier algorithm with other popular mining and machine learning algorithms on the dataset obtained from the Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Society (TSCS) located in Rajendra Nagar, Hyderabad, Telangana, India. Doi: 10.28991/esj-2021-01270 Full Text: PDF
Method for oil balance control under quasi-stationary modes of operation of an oil pipeline section with free flow

Published: April 2021

Автоматизированные системы управления используются в нефтепроводном транспорте с целью автоматизации технологических процессов транспортировки нефти и нефтепродуктов, при этом основной задачей является обеспечение надежности и безопасности перекачки, что невозможно без контроля целостности трубопровода. В связи с этим актуальной остается тема обнаружения утечек, требуют продолжения исследования в области повышения надежности автоматизированных систем обнаружения утечек (СОУ). При эксплуатации СОУ особую важность представляет описание процессов заполнения и опорожнения участков трубопровода с безнапорным течением. Скорость установления стационарного режима работы таких участков и участков с полным сечением существенно отличается. Слабые возмущения давления могут приводить к значительному дебалансу расхода нефти и, как следствие, вызывать ложные срабатывания СОУ. Авторами представлен алгоритм вычисления скорости изменения запаса нефти на участке трубопровода при медленном изменении размера самотечной полости, на основании которого предложен способ корректировки уравнения баланса вещества. Показано использование разработанного алгоритма для повышения чувствительности СОУ и уменьшения количества ложных срабатываний.

During the operation of leak detection systems (LDS), it is of great importance to describe the processes of filling and emptying pipeline free flow sections. The speed of establishing a stationary operation mode of such sections and full sections is significantly different. Weak pressure perturbations can lead to significant imbalance in the oil flow rate and, as a consequence, cause false LDS positives. The authors present an algorithm for calculating rate of change in oil reserve in the pipeline section with a slow change in the size of gravity cavity, on the basis of which a method for adjusting the substance balance equation is proposed. The use of a developed algorithm is shown to increase the sensitivity of LDS and reduce the number of false alarms.

The geographic information system (GIS) mapping was used to improve the efficiency of vaccination teams. This paper documents the process in the deployment of geographical information system in response to polio eradication in Chad. It started with a careful review of government official documents as well as review of literature and online resources on Chad, which confirmed that official boundaries existed at two levels, namely Regions and Districts. All settlement locations in the target Districts were identified by manual feature extraction of high-resolution, recent satellite imagery, and map layers created for the following categories: hamlets, hamlet areas, small settlements, and built-up areas (BUAs). This clearly improved microplanning and provided valuable feedback in identifying missed settlements, leading to increased coverage and fewer missed children.

Authors: Robinson Kyle E. , Grewal Eric P. , Pritt Bobbi S. , Lloyd Margaret , Stephano Adriantiano M. , Fardine Mamantsara , Brumble Lisa M. , Libertin Claudia R.
Published: April 2021

Background

Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease that affects the health of hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Affordable diagnostic methods are necessary for developing countries to monitor schistosomiasis rates and treat infected individuals, particularly in, Madagascar, a country with the world’s fifth highest rate of schistosomiasis.

Methods

We established the prevalence rate of schistosomiasis among the local population served by a clinic in rural northwestern Madagascar. Additionally, we compared different low-cost methods for schistosomiasis detection, including empirical diagnostic methods in use before this study. 500 patients were recruited in this study, of whom 380 received three tests—urine microscopy, point-of-care circulating cathodic antigen (POC-CCA) testing, and urinalysis to screen for Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni.

Results

By combining these modalities, we recorded a schistosomiasis prevalence rate of 64.47%, which was significantly higher than the 4.84% of patients who were diagnosed and treated through previous empirical methods.

Conclusions

Our results indicate that screening tests are a necessary component of schistosomiasis control programs. The clinic continued to use urinalysis strip testing and urine microscopy to detect schistosomiasis after this study and decided to discontinue the use of POC-CCA S. mansoni urine testing because of cost. Increased awareness of schistosomiasis resulting from this screening program led to the installation of multiple infrastructure projects in local communities to improve access to potable water, demonstrating community benefits of schistosomiasis screening that extend beyond the identification of infected individuals.

Globally, sustainable Information and Communication Technology (ICT) innovations are significant in realizing sustainable research and innovations in tertiary institutions. Despite this laudable global impact of ICT on research and innovations, poor ICT policies and practices, coupled with bad economy that plagued sustainable ICT innovations in Nigeria have hindered sustainable research and innovations in tertiary institutions. This study adopted the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) as the study conceptual framework. UTAUT model postulates that users’ acceptance behaviour toward a technology is determined by users’ decision to use a technology, and the perceived benefits thereof. The authors explored a narrative review, analysis, and synthesis of vast works of literature that revealed significant information on impact of sustainable ICT on sustainable research and innovations in Nigeria. The authors also extracted peer-reviewed articles within the last five years from electronic databases using some keywords such as “ICT impact on research innovations”, “ICT adoption in tertiary institutions”, “ICT usability Trends ”, and so on. The results from this study revealed that strict adherence to ICT policies, laws, guidelines, and sustainability, coupled with good formulation and communication of same, are the major impact of sustainable ICT that can leverage research and innovations in tertiary institutions in Nigeria. Results from this study may increase understanding, minimize corrupt practices and encourage value for ICTs that can positively impact research and innovations in tertiary institutions for economic development in Nigerian.
Edvard Westermarck -muistoluento. Hierarkia, tasa-arvo ja anarkian sublimaatio: Länsimainen illuusio ihmisluonnosta
Authors: Sahlins Marshall
Published: April 2021

Yli kahden vuosituhannen ajan ”länsimaisiksi” kutsumiamme kansoja on vainonnut niiden oman sisimmän olemuksen haamu: niin ahnas ja riitaisa ihmisluonnon kuvatus, että ilman jonkinlaista hallintaa se alentaisi yhteiskunnan anarkian tilaan. Tätä kuritonta olentoa koskeva valtiotiede on enimmäkseen ilmennyt kahdessa vastakkaisessa ja keskenään vuorottelevassa muodossa. Valittavana on joko hierarkia tai tasa-arvo, monarkkinen auktoriteetti tai demokraattinen tasapaino: vallankäytön järjestelmä, joka (ihannetilanteessa) rajoittaa ihmisten luontaista itsekkyyttä ulkopuolisen voiman avulla; tai itseohjautuva järjestelmä, jossa vapaiden ja tasa-arvoisten voimien vastakkaisuuden kautta (ihannetilanteessa) niiden erityiset intressit sovitetaan yhteiseksi eduksi. Kyseessä on kokonaisvaltainen vallan metafysiikka, joka ylittää politiikan ulottuvuuden, sillä sama geneerinen alkuvoimaisen anarkian rakenne löytyy sekä maailmankaikkeuden että kaupungin järjestyksestä ja myös ihmisruumiin terveyden käsitteistä. Ratkaisu anarkiaan on joko hierarkia tai tasa-arvo. Väitän tämän olevan erityisesti länsimaista metafysiikkaa, koska siihen sisältyy luonnon ja kulttuurin vastakkaisuuden oletus, joka on erityisesti länsimainen. Päinvastoin kuin länsimaisessa ajattelussa, monien kansojen käsitysten mukaan eläimet ovat pohjimmiltaan inhimillisiä, sen sijaan että ihmiset olisivat pohjimmiltaan eläimellisiä – näillä kansoilla ei ole ”luontoa,” vielä vähemmän sellaista, joka pitäisi voittaa.

This work develops an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for performing Breast Cancer (BC) classification tasks. The design of the model considers studying different ANN architectures from the literature and chooses the one with the best performance. This ANN model aims to classify BC cases more systematically and more quickly. It provides facilities in the field of medicine to detect breast cancer among women. The ANN classification model is able to achieve an average accuracy of 98.88 % with an average run time of 0.182 seconds. Using this model, the classification of BC can be carried out much more faster than manual diagnosis and with good enough accuracy.

An efficient method of gas-phase multilayer heterogeneous deposition of quartz and fluorosilicate glass in a non-isothermal plasma of a resonant local low pressure microwave discharge on quartz glass substrates and silicon wafers for the optical structures formation of waveguides and other waveguide elements based on them, is presented. It is shown that the nonisothermal plasma of a resonant local low pressure microwave discharge is an effective tool for the films formation on silicon and quartz substrates, both pure silicon dioxide and doped with fluorine. The cracks presence in films doped with fluorine is not observed even at their considerable thicknesses (20…60 µm). Deposition high rates and efficiency of silica glass doped with fluorine have been achieved (up to 7 wt.% of glass doping with fluorine at a film deposition rate of more than 3 μm/min). Planar and strip multimode and single-mode optical waveguides have been created. They are the basic structures of various fiber-optic components of local information transmission systems.

ABSTRACTLearning language will also relate to speech act. When a speaker produce an utterance as well as utilize it to perform an action, it means that the speaker practices speech acts. In another hand, speech acts can be defined as an utterance used by speaker to perform an action. Speech acts are divided into three such as locutionary act, illocutionary act, and perlocutionary act. One of them is illocutionary act. The illocutionary act refers to what someone does in saying something. In this act, illocutionary force is the speaker’s intent addressed to hearer. This research is aimed to find the types of illocutionary acts and identifying about how utterances in the Donald Trump’s speeches are able to be included into certain type of illocutionary acts be based on Searle’s theory. This research is designed in descriptive qualitative. The data is collected by documentation. The primary data are taken from two transcripts of Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy speeches. While the secondary data are related theories obtained from literary books and journals. The procedure of analyzing the data starts by finding out the types of illocutionary acts in the Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy speeches by using the illocutionary acts’ classifications proposed by Searle (1969). After that, the researcher also identifies about the different frequency of illocutionary acts appearances and the dominant illoctionary acts appeared in the Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy speeches. The finding shows that the type of illocutionary acts found in the Donald Trump’s speeches were assertive, commissive, expressive, and directive. Eventhough the types of illocutionary acts found in Donald Trump’s speeches were exactly the same, but they were different in the frequency of appearance. Donald Trump produced mostly assertive type of illocutionary acts and also asserting category of illocutionary type in both of the speeches. Moreover, some utterances are included into assertive type of illocutionary acts due to the fact that they have a suitability with the explanation of assertive type of illocutionary acts proposed by Searle.Keywords: Illocutionary Acts, Speech Acts, Presidential Candidacy Speeches.
Isolation of some microalgae strains belonging to the family scenedesmaceas (chlorophyta) in freshwater bodies in central Vietnam and investigation into their biological characteristics
Authors: Tran Tran Nguyen Quynh Anh
Published: April 2021

Seven microalgae strains from samples collected from freshwater lakes in Central Vietnam were isolated and cultivated in BBM medium for investigating their biological characteristics and their applicability. These strains were identified belonging to 6 species, 3 genera of the family Scenedesmaceae, division Chlorophyta. Their average growth rate was from 0.081 - 0.160 d-1, and the highest cell density of each strain reached from 2.6 x 106 - 60 x 106 cells/ml. The total content of pigments (including chlorophyll-a, chlorophyll-b, and carotenoid) of all strains was not too high (4.10 - 11.3 μg/mL), but the total lipid content exhibiting noticeably high levels, accounted for 16.6% - 74.1% of dry cell weight. Among isolated strains, Desmodesmusabundans and D.costato-granulatus were the most prominent with the highest growth rate and density in combination with remarkably high contents of lipids and pigments, and thus were identified as two potentially great candidates for biofuel production and chlorophyll and carotenoid extraction.
