Technique to Protect the Palatal Donor Area After Taking a Free Gingival Graft: Patchwork Technique
Authors: Laguna-Martos Martín , Cascos Rocío , Iglesias-Velázquez Óscar , Gómez-Polo Miguel , Vasquez-Ramos Solange , Castro-Calderón Adriana
Published: February 2025

The objective is to describe a technique to protect the donor area after taking a free gingival graft. A partial de-epithelialization of the palatal area is performed with a lentil bur mounted in a dental turbine. A partial thickness flap is then created to harvest the superficial connective tissue layer. Subsequently, two collagen sponges are placed into the wound. The sponges are compressed and secured by two sling stitches. Once hemostasis is obtained, a uniform layer of flow composite is placed and light-cured. Finally, a sling stitch is added to secure and compress the composite layer. Postoperatively, the donor area showed satisfactory healing after 14 days, with partial healing after the first revision and complete epithelialization during the second revision, with no reported pain or discomfort. Thus, the patchwork technique may be a more straightforward, predictable, and cost-effective alternative that protects the donor area, improves healing, and reduces pain.
Utilization of chronic intrasocket granulation tissue for immediate implantation in the type III extraction socket of a maxillary anterior tooth
Authors: Kim Sungtae , Han Hee-seung , Cho Young-Dan
Published: February 2025

Traditionally, intrasocket granulation tissue (IGT) has been regarded as infected tissue to be removed during extraction to facilitate bone healing. However, recent findings suggest that IGT can support primary closure, preserving keratinized mucosa and enhancing healing potential without requiring additional soft tissue grafting. This case series explores the application of IGT as an extended flap in immediate implant placement within type III extraction sockets, specifically in the anterior maxilla of healthy patients. A dense, thick IGT was utilized to extend the gingival flap, achieving tension-free primary closure and maintaining mucogingival junction stability. This technique allowed for socket preservation with sufficient vestibular depth and reduced surgical intervention. Consequently, this approach may offer a viable alternative for immediate implantation in type III extraction sockets, particularly in aesthetic areas where keratinized mucosa and soft tissue stability are essential.

Published: February 2025

Objetivou-se analisar a estratégia fármaco-invasiva pré-hospitalar do serviço de saúde público da região oeste do Paraná. Trata-se de um estudo retrospectivo, a partir do banco de dados da Secretaria Estadual de Saúde (SESA-Pr) de dezembro de 2020 até novembro de 2023. A idade média dos pacientes foi de 62 anos (+/- 12,5), 62% eram do sexo masculino e 53,3% apresentaram reversão do supra de ST. O tempo mediano do diagnóstico até a realização da trombólise foi de 119 minutos. O cateterismo de resgate foi necessário em 29 (31,5%) pacientes. Foram registrados 8 (8,7%) óbitos em até 30 dias e 11 (12%) em 01 ano. O baixo índice de reversão do supra de ST, observado em apenas 53,3% dos pacientes, ocorreu provavelmente devido aos atrasos observados no sistema, visto que 68,5% dos pacientes receberam o trombolítico com mais de 90 minutos após o diagnóstico. Concluiu-se que o atual modelo não atende as orientações das diretrizes havendo espaço para melhorias. Recomendou-se que a SESA-PR alterasse sua estratégia, de forma que a Fibrinólise pré-hospitalar fosse estendida também para as Upas e Hospitais de Pequeno Porte, capilarizando a rede de atendimento e diminuindo os atrasos no atendimento.

Authors:   RehabilitationInternational Korea, Yoon Jaeyoung , Ahn Hyungjin , Park Jaesung
Published: February 2025

This phenomenological study investigates the transformative experiences of the first cohort of Person-Centered Thinking (PCT) trainers in South Korea, using Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The research identifies four major themes―Ignition (the spark of change), Illumination (gaining new insights), Guidance (navigating progress), and Introspection (personal reflection and growth)―that outline the trainers’ journeys from traditional, rigid practices to more empathetic, person-centered approaches. Despite these transformative outcomes, the trainers encountered challenges in integrating PCT principles into Korea's collectivist culture and hierarchical systems. The study emphasizes the importance of systemic adaptation and culturally sensitive training to fully implement PCT in Korean human services. Recommendations include embedding PCT in policy, promoting cultural sensitivity in training, and providing continuous professional development to sustain person-centered practices.
Gender Differences in the Influence of Discrimination Experience, Self-Esteem, and Socioeconomic Factors on Self-Rated Health of Parents Caring for Children with Disabilities
Authors:   RehabilitationInternational Korea, Kim Jiyeon , Sohn Aeree
Published: February 2025

This study examined the impact of discriminatory experiences and self-esteem on the self-rated health of parents of children with disabilities, particularly focusing on the influence of gender. Data from 1,895 parents from the fifth wave of the Disability and Life Dynamics Panel, including 711 men and 1,184 women were analyzed using the chi-square and logistic regression. The data were analyzed in total and then subjected to further analysis according to gender to facilitate the comparison of the results. Discrimination and self-esteem had significant effects on self-rated health status. When analyzed by gender, the magnitude of the effects of discrimination and self-esteem was greater for men than for women. A significant difference was observed between male and female participants in terms of employment status, with a notable impact on self-rated health status reported among men, but not among women. This study’s findings indicate that high self-esteem and employment status are positively associated with the self-rated health status of parents of children with disabilities. Thus, implementing support programs to enhance self-esteem, sustain employment, and provide gender-specific assistance could promote healthier lives for children with disabilities and their parents.

Authors: Perković Gjurašin Elena
Published: February 2025

Na nalazištu Beli Manastir – Širine istraženo je 37 grobova kulture inkrustirane keramike ranog brončanog doba. Od 2015. do 2017. godine, u sklopu suradnje Hrvatskog restauratorskog zavoda i Instituta za arheologiju, restaurirano je sveukupno 110 keramičkih predmeta s ovog nalazišta. U članku su prikazani konzervatorsko-restauratorski radovi na keramičkim posudama i fragmentima posuda iz groba 8. U grobu je nađen velik broj predmeta, djelomično pomiješanih, u vrlo fragmentiranom stanju. Stoga su radovi, između ostalog, zahtijevali dobru organizaciju vremena i prostora. Konzervatorsko-restauratorski radovi provedeni su u više faza s ciljem vraćanja identiteta i integriteta, stabilizacije i sprečavanja daljnjeg propadanja ovih značajnih arheoloških nalaza. Svi materijali upotrijebljeni prilikom konzervatorsko-restauratorskih zahvata, reverzibilni su, a sve faze radova popraćene su opširnom pisanom i fotodokumentacijom.
Župna i hodočasnička crkva Pohoda Blažene Djevice Marije u Čučerju
Authors: Horvat-Levaj Katarina
Published: February 2025

Trobrodna župna crkva u Čučerju, sagrađena 1725. – 1736. zaslugom biskupa Jurja Branjuga na mjestu starije crkve, nije do sada bila uključena u antologijske preglede barokne arhitekture. Razlog tomu je činjenica da je crkva nakon oštećenja u potresima 1905./1906. bila obnovljena u pojednostavnjenom obliku. Istraživanja koja su prethodila obnovi crkve nakon recentnih potresa 2020., međutim, otkrila su važne poništene oblikovne karakteristike, tek djelomično poznate iz pisane dokumentacije. To su bazilikalna koncepcija i kupola s lanternom iznad poligonalnog svetišta, koje ne samo da su crkvi u Čučerju dale novo mjesto unutar korpusa barokne arhitekture nego su svojom iznimnošću (bazilika) i ranim vremenom nastanka (kupola) bacile novo svjetlo i na sam razvoj hrvatske sakralne arhitekture toga razdoblja.

Published: February 2025

Zaštitna arheološka istraživanja provedena uz crkvu sv. Julijane u Tremi pokazala su da je postojeća građevina, podignuta vjerojatno sredinom 17. stoljeća, izgrađena na prostoru kasnosrednjovjekovnog groblja datiranog od kraja 13. ili početka 14. do 16. stoljeća. Srednjovjekovno groblje na ovom položaju upućuje na postojanje starijeg sakralnog objekta, vjerojatno smještenog ispod današnje crkve. Tomu u prilog govore i brojne kamene spolije uzidane u crkvu, među kojima su i gotičke arhitektonske profilacije pronađene prilikom konzervatorsko-restauratorskih istraživanja. Arheološkim istraživanjima potvrđeno je više građevinskih faza, odnosno faza adaptacije postojeće crkve, te su pronađeni temelji nekadašnje sjeverne i južne sakristije koje se spominju u arhivskim izvorima iz 18. stoljeća.

Authors: Щевлянин Михаил , Королева Диана
Published: February 2025

The article is dedicated to the modern concept “student voice and choice,” which is an essential component of personalised learning. The research was conducted in the Russian schools that integrated the educational platform with personalised learning methodology, “SberClass.” On the basis of 24 interviews with the teachers the article:
1) indicates teachers’ attitude towards the concept “student voice and choice”;
2) investigates the application of the concept in the teacher practice; 
3) analyses what benefits and barriers the teachers perceive in giving students the possibility to express their opinions and choose in the learning.
One of the findings is the contradiction between teachers’ positive attitude towards the concept and unreadiness for the realisation in teacher practice at the secondary school.
What Are the Benefits of First Year Student Extracurricular Engagement: Academic Achievements, Desire to Complete a Degree and Psychological Well-Being
Authors: Абрамова Мария , Клевцов Дмитрий , Щеглова Ирина , Вилкова Ксения
Published: February 2025

Attention to extracurricular activities in higher education is associated with a change in the role of the university, specifically the activation of its additional function, which involves the development of student personality. Despite the support for the development of extracurricular activities in universities, the existing research on the impact of extracurricular activities on students’ educational outcomes is contradictory, revealing both positive and negative effects. The aim of this study is to examine the role of extracurricular activities in shaping the educational outcomes of students in Russian universities, taking into account both the positive and negative effects of these activities. To obtain empirical data, a survey of first-year students enrolled in bachelor’s and specialist programs at Tomsk State University was conducted (N = 1199). The study found a positive relationship between extracurricular activities and students’ educational outcomes, including both objective (academic performance) and subjective (desire to continue education and psychological well-being) indicators. At the same time, it was noted that not only the fact of participating in extracurricular activities matters, but also the type of activity chosen by the student. Specifically, scientific activities, unlike other types of extracurricular activities, are positively associated with all educational outcomes examined in the study.

Published: February 2025

The aim of this research is to explore the main models of student engagement in university self-government in Russia, to understand and categorize what drives the students’ participation in these institutions. The main content of the paper is based on a multi-stage coding and thematic analysis of 72 interviews conducted in the autumn of 2022 with student leaders of various Russian universities. The analysis results allow us to highlight three main student cultures of participation in representation bodies: the basic one is characterized by a predominant focus on personal socialization and individual development, the pragmatic one emphasizes the importance of financial and career incentives, while the civic one includes an orientation towards social recognition, helping others, and addressing public issues. The results provide valuable information for developing strategies to enhance the efficacy of working with different groups of students in Russian student representation, both at the institutional university level and at the regional or national level.
The Foundations for the Current Development of National Mathematical Education, Laid by its Leaders in the 20th Century
Authors: Семенов Алексей , Абылкасымова Алма , Рудченко Татьяна
Published: February 2025

The work analyzes the views on the development of mathematical education by G.V. Dorofeev and other leading Russian researchers of school mathematical education of the 20th century, including V.V. Firsov and A.Ya. Khinchin. Important for them were the idea of “humanitarianization of mathematical education” and the related concept of “education in mathematics”, in modern terminology – about meta-subject and personal results achieved in a mathematics course. The central areas of humanitarization of mathematical education are logic and language, rational thinking, and effective communication. Within the framework of these ideas, the importance of including in a mathematics course problems that “don’t know how to solve” (for a student who is offered such a problem), unexpected, shallenging, creative ones is considered. In the context of the ongoing digital transformation of education, the role of such tasks is increasing, and the role of routine, standard tasks is decreasing – they can be quickly and accurately solved using a computer. Respectively student and teacher resources can be reallocated. Another important concept discussed in this article is differentiation. There are different interpretations of this concept, common to which is the leading role of the student. The most important thing is “level differentiation”. This concept was introduced by V.V. Firsov in the 1980s. The central element of this concept is that each student achieves all intended goals. It obviously follows from this requirement that goals must be personal for each student. The simplest and most useful option seems to be one in which the goal is adapted to the student’s initial level, abilities and motives. In the context of the digital transformation of schools, the ideas of G.V. Dorofeev and his associates can be fully implemented in the education systems of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Published: February 2025

The objective from this study is to investigate the relationship from ESG performance and dividend policy on firm value, and the impact of moderating variable that from board gender diversity. The sample comprises 103 manufacturing companies registered on the IDX in both 2021 and 2022. Data were gathered from annual and sustainability reports and analyzed by panel data regression. The research findings show that environmental performance and dividend policy have a positive effect on firm value. Combined ESG, social, and governance performance have no influence on firm value. On the other hand, board gender diversity can negatively moderate the effect of dividend policy on firm value, but it cannot moderate the influence from combined ESG performance on firm value.

TOPSIS-based framework for evaluating employee cybersecurity risk
Authors: Kostelić Katarina
Published: February 2025

This paper presents the development and initial validation of a TOPSIS-based framework for evaluating employee cybersecurity risk (TFEECR). The framework offers a structured and objective approach to assessing multiple dimensions of employee behavior and attitudes toward cybersecurity. It integrates the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to the Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) with Saaty’s criteria weighting, enabling a comprehensive evaluation across five criteria: knowledge, compliance, risky behaviors, attitudes, and training. The framework is validated using simulated data, and it showed robustness in differentiating between high- and low-risk employees. Such results are useful for organizations that want to implement targeted interventions. A sensitivity analysis highlights the framework's adaptability to various settings. This conceptual framework lays the groundwork for future empirical validation and practical application in enhancing organizational cybersecurity.
Optimizing maritime routes
Authors: Bokhari Syed Wajahat Ali , Ali Nasir , Hussain Abid
Published: February 2025

This research analyzes the marine route plan from Shanghai to Vladivostok utilizing Dijkstra’s algorithm, Markov chain analysis, game theory, and congestion analysis. Dijkstra determines the route through Busan and Hungnam as the shortest, with a total distance of 2114 kilometers and minimal travel time. The Markov chain analysis supported the designated path by demonstrating greater transition probabilities compared to other routes, so establishing it as the most probable option. Experts in game theory, particularly on the Nash equilibrium, demonstrated that cooperation significantly reduced operating expenses. Further congestion research corroborated that the Shanghai-Busan-Hungnam-Vladivostok route offers a cost advantage, and even with the inclusion of congestion, the route remains less expensive. The study collectively advocates for the consideration of distance, likelihood, collaboration, and congestion while selecting the optimal maritime route, hence enhancing efficiency in maritime logistics.

Published: February 2025

Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence of an intervention program for the improvement of free throw shooting in a basketball team in training stages from the design of tasks carried out through the previous study of the actions that lead to free throws during the competition. Material and method: The sample in this study was a U13 boys' basketball team competing in the gold category of the Murcia Basketball Federation. To follow this procedure, a total of four games and 19 training sessions were analyzed over two months of competition, recording a total of 70 personal fouls that led to at least one free throw attempt. The following variables were analyzed for each personal foul: a) moment, b) place, c) attack phase, d) tactical numerical situation, e) previous individual action, f) body orientation, g) situation of the player when receiving the foul, h) offense on, i) control of the mobile, j) type of possession, k) offense of, l) type of offense, m) repercussion, n) effectiveness and o) number of points obtained. Results: The most significant results indicate that: (a) the place where more fouls were received is inside zone, (b) the actions in which more fouls were received were when the team was in counterattack and the player was in 1x1, (c) the predominant impact was the one deriving in the number of two free throws during the study, d) the percentage of free throw efficiency was lower before the intervention, but the number of points scored from the actions performed was higher, given that in the post-intervention games there was a greater number of basket and personal foul situations, where the points from the basket are added, even if the free throw was missed. Discussion: These results indicate that the free throw can be improved from a more qualitative than quantitative value thanks to the instructions and guidelines followed during this study, but finally it must be concluded that it will be up to each coach to adapt the training to the level and needs of his players.
Desarrollo y validación del test RV de figuras arbitrales: equivalencia y convergencia de la respuesta atencional con el Toulouse-Piéron Revisado
Authors: Pavón Daniel , Boillos David , De la Vega Ricardo
Published: February 2025

The aim of this study was to adapt the revised Toulouse-Piéron questionnaire to the arbitral context, analyzing its equivalence and convergence with the Arbitral Figures Test, created by David Boillos from the CTA, who is responsible for the sports psychology area. It was hypothesized that both tests would be equivalent in parameters such as number of possibilities, responses, correct answers, errors, omissions, and overall indices, and that there would be convergence in the Global Index of Attention and Perception (GIAP) and the Impulsivity Control Index (ICI). Additionally, sustained attention, processing speed, and decision-making were evaluated. The participants were 120 referees from the Royal Spanish Football Federation. The results partially confirmed the hypotheses, showing discrepancies in possibilities, responses, and correct answers between the tests. The Toulouse-Piéron Test yielded better results due to differences in stimuli. The GIAP and ICI differed but correlated adequately. No test correlated with the factors of the DMQ-II, the third complementary questionnaire administered during the test. Standardizing both tests and analyzing their validity with other tests of attention and perception is recommended for future research.
Controversial Aspects of Legal Consciousness in the light of the Problems of Implementation of the Right to Health Protection
Authors: Vasilyev S. V.
Published: February 2025

The paper examines problematic aspects of implementation of the right to health protection and medical care in the context of the development of ideas about a right as a regulator of behavior based on the responsibility of the copyright holder for independent choice. It is noted that health protection as one of the main human values attracts the increased attention of all participants involved in the process. It is characterized by a high level of conflict and, therefore, it requires the use of the most advanced legal technologies for a fair and effective regulation of the relations under consideration. A very sensitive and priority area of interests of every citizen is affected from the standpoint of the effectiveness of the protective properties of the right construction. Using the decisions of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, the author proves the limited possibilities of detecting violations of the patient’s rights while ignoring the differences between a right and a law. The paper substantiates the need to correct ideas about the right, identifying it with the mechanism of legislative implementation. The author consolidates new knowledge necessary for the development of theoretical aspects of the interaction between the right and the law in the direction of strengthening the potential of the subjective right as a tool for regulating relations in conditions of objective limitations of the legislative form. The author concludes that the prospects for strengthening the legal space in which the level of protection of subjective rights in the field of health protection correlate with the ability of legal regulations to provide rights holders with the opportunity to freely and responsibly choose a trajectory of behavior that does not exclude (gives a chance) to increase the level of quality indicators of medical care.
Public Law Regulation of Currency Transactions in the context of the Counter-Sanctions Regime
Authors: Goloshchapov I. I.
Published: February 2025

The paper examines amendments in public law regulation of currency transactions in the Russian Federation related to the formation of a counter-sanctions legal regime. Special attention is paid to new opportunities for cross-border settlements related to foreign economic activity and law enforcement practices implemented by government agencies of the Russian Federation in the face of unfriendly actions by foreign States. The paper highlights the role of a new independent institution, namely, currency monitoring. The final part examines the consequences of the introduction of special mechanisms aimed to protect Russian national interests in the face of sanctions. It is noted that novelties in Russian legislation, as well as modern approaches of Russian researchers to issues of public law regulation of currency relations in general, form fundamentally new legal mechanisms for protecting national interests in the context of tightening sanctions pressure from unfriendly countries, primarily in foreign economic activity.
The Mechanism for Convalidation of a Contract entered into due to Misrepresentation, with the Consent of the Counterparty to Maintain its Force
Authors: Povarov Yu. S.
Published: February 2025

The paper scrutinizes the mechanism for a contract convalidation, enshrined in paragraph 4 of Article 178 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, which has a wide scope of application and is a manifestation of the principles of good faith and stability of contract. Particular attention is given to the study of a controversial issue as to legal and factual basis for the convalidation of a contract concluded due to misrepresentation, when the counterparty of the person in representation expresses their consent to maintain the validity of the contract under the changed terms. The author proceeds from the grounds that the interpretation of the rehabilitation mechanism as contractual is unfounded (clause 4 of Article 178 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation is devoted to changing the terms of a contract under the control and with the assistance of the court; this, however, does not exclude the possibility of extrajudicial revision of contractual provisions by agreement of the parties). The rationality of the retroactivity of the updated terms of the contract is proven, but as a general, not an exclusive rule (according to the author, it would be justified to recognize the court’s ability to extend the effect of the transformative decision in whole or in part to the future). The study of the issue of the conjugation of the provisions of paragraph 4 of Article 178 and Article 157.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation ends with the conclusion that it is inappropriate to qualify the consent of the counterparty of the mistaken party as a type of approval (in the sense of Article 157.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation).
Optimal Criminal Policy
Authors: Antonchenko V. V.
Published: February 2025

The paper is devoted to the analysis of domestic criminal policy, its effectiveness and the possibility of optimization. The state of criminal law and the criminal legal reality based thereon raises doubts about the very existence of criminal policy as a targeted activity of the state in the sphere of combating crime. The properties of criminal repression, which do not eliminate the determinants of crime, but often exacerbate them, require a deep legal and philosophical understanding of their true essence and purpose. The traditional approach to the harshness of criminal policy as a method of law enforcement is subject to qualitative revision at the theoretical level, in legislation and law enforcement. The formation of criminal policy and its further optimization require the modernization of criminal, criminal procedure, criminal executive law, as well as practical law enforcement activities. The main direction of this reform is the rationalization and humanization of the indicated directions, corresponding to the global vector of historical development of society, which has proven its effectiveness.

Authors: Sarkisyan K. T.
Published: February 2025

The paper examines current issues of detection, recording and seizure of digital traces in line with investigative activities in cases related to the illegal trafficking of drugs in computer networks. The main approaches to understanding a digital trace, as well as positions on the classification of digital traces, are considered. The paper analyzes what specific digital traces are encountered in such a category of cases as illegal drug trafficking in computer networks. An analysis of international experience in the field of collecting digital traces was conducted, and domestic judicial practice in the category of cases under consideration was studied. Examples are given to illustrate the relevance of this topic. During the study, problems were identified that arise when collecting digital traces during investigative actions such as inspection and search. The paper notes the need to develop a methodology aimed at standardizing the procedure for working with digital traces.

BACKGROUND: A development of mathematical methods, digitalization of medical diagnostic equipment, and growth of computing capabilities have created conditions for the emergence of new tools for automated analysis of biomedical data - artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. In clinical practice, computer vision has become the most widespread among promising AI technologies. Since 2023, the Moscow Experiment has been using AI services to diagnose injuries and conditions of the musculoskeletal system, which has allowed studying a quality of the relevant tools for the first time on a large-scale.
AIM: To study a diagnostic significance of software based on artificial intelligence technologies for the diagnosis of deforming osteoarthritis of large joints of the lower limbs.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The scientific work performed in the design of the diagnostic study according to the STARD2015 methodology included two stages— retrospective and prospective. The retrospective stage was a calculation of diagnostic accuracy indicators (AUROC, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy). The prospective phase consisted of regular monitoring of the diagnostic quality of the AI service while analysing the actual flow of radiography results (n=198,821). A match of radiologist and AI service results was calculated, as well as an integral clinical evaluation was performed. The duration of the study was 1year and 8months.
RESULTS: Five Russian AI-based software for detecting signs of deforming osteoarthritis were studied. Only two of them successfully passed the stage of retrospective diagnostic accuracy assessment and were accepted to participate in the prospective stage. Both AI services demonstrated the sufficient technical reliability in clinical conditions. One of the AI services had a medium-high level of diagnostic value with the median clinical score of more than 88.0%, while the other had a high level of diagnostic value with the median clinical score of more than 93.0%.
CONCLUSIONS: The achieved level of AI-based software development allows applying them to improve the accuracy and productivity of radiologists when providing radiology reports of large joints of the lower limbs (in the context of diagnosing deforming osteoarthritis).
A Comparison of Machine Learning Methods of Association Tested on Dense Nodal Arrays

Published: February 2025

The association of phase picks to form events is one of the fundamental components of seismology. Large and dense sensor networks, such as >1000 geophone arrays (and distributed acoustic sensing), offer unique challenges in association due to the vast numbers of observations and high likelihood of errant picks. In addition, the large number of stations can greatly increase the time it takes to perform the association. For this reason, machine learning (ML) methods might provide a more optimal method of association for such networks. In this work, we examine how well ML methods (e.g., Gaussian mixture model association, PhaseLink, and Graph Earthquake Neural Interpretation Engine) can incorporate dense seismic arrays into regional networks and how well they handle the increasing numbers of stations. We test their capabilities on two dense seismic deployments, one within Rock Valley Nevada (52 nodes and a 9-station sparse local network), and the LArge-n Seismic Survey in Oklahoma dense nodal array (>1800 vertical-component geophones). Processing data from these two different styles of dense seismic deployments allows testing of how the ML algorithms can merge array data with a broader regional network, how they deal with poorly picked phases, and how they handle anthropogenic noise. We compare the ML-associated bulletins to those obtained using the Rapid Earthquake Association and Location algorithm, a more traditional method of association. We find that there are very small differences in results between the methods for small networks (<100 stations) with low pick rates. For large networks (>1000), there are enough errant picks that some of the ML methods start to create false events out of noise. We also find that the ML methods vary in computation time significantly but are all faster than the traditional method tested here.

Published: February 2025

This study explores the experiences of Black queer youth raised in the South, where systemic barriers and societal norms often hinder access to spaces that affirm their intersecting identities. Drawing on the idea of intersectionality, it examines the marginalization faced within both Black and queer communities, highlighting the necessity of spaces designed specifically for their needs. The research also investigates how Black queer youth have reclaimed agency through creative practices and unexpected means, with a focus on arts education as a tool for fostering self-expression, community building, and resilience. This study aims to illuminate the transformative potential of art in cultivating safe and empowering spaces for Black queer youth, especially those who do not have the means to move to more accepting places. Additionally, this study seeks to explore how the arts and culture sector can contribute to the creation of positive and affirming experiences for Black queer youth within their home communities.
