Jazykové interference u sloves v jazyce příslušníků české menšiny v Chorvatsku
Authors: Stranjik Helena
Published: January 2025

V článku představujeme popis jazyka českých krajanů, kteří už několik generací žijí na území dnešního Chorvatska. Přestože si zdejší krajané do-sud udrželi češtinu jako funkční dorozumívací prostředek, v jejich jazyce můžeme pozorovat výraznější či méně výrazné interference s většinovým jazykem, chorvat-štinou, ve všech jazykových rovinách. Vzhledem k tomu, že jde o dva blízké jazyky a dnes už všichni krajané vyrůstají v dvojjazyčném prostředí, tyto interference pro-nikají do jazyka krajanů poměrně jednoduše. Blíže se zaměřujeme na kategorii sloves, u nichž se objevují interference od roviny fonetické až po syntaktickou: např. změny v oblasti rekce a předložkových vazeb, zvratnosti, slovesného vidu, vyjadřování záporu v perfektu nebo pasíva opis-ného a zvratného. Zvláštní kapitolou jsou změny v rovině sémantické, např. zu-žování nebo rozšiřování významu sloves. Největší potíže pak krajanům dělají tzv. mezijazyková homonyma.Pozorované interference popisujeme na základě korpusu mluvy krajanů vzni-klého v průběhu výzkumu, který proběhl v letech 2015-2016 mezi žáky českých základních škol v Daruvaru a Končenicích a jejich rodinami.
Anomálie ve slovotvorném a tvaroslovném systému substantiv: jazyková příručka, slovník a komunikační realita
Authors: Vondráček Miloslav
Published: January 2025

Příspěvek ukazuje na několika substantivech s nestandardním pa-radigmatem vývojový odstup mezi tradičními českými preskriptivními příručkami či slovníky na straně jedné a komunikační realitou na straně druhé. Současně zužitko-vává autorovu zkušenost s činností Ústavu pro jazyk český a představuje mecha-nismy využívané při tvorbě Akademického slovníku současné češtiny a Internetové jazykové příručky, které mají tento nesoulad zmírnit. Pro obě zmíněná primárně elek-tronická díla je zdrojem dat o jazyce především Český národní korpus. Díky tomu je posílen jejich deskriptivní ráz, aniž by to znamenalo ústupky v úsilí o jazykovou kulturu. Příspěvek tak ukazuje cestu k poznání současné češtiny jak prostřednictvím jejího lingvistického popisu, tak jejího víceméně věrného obrazu v reálné komunikaci.

Published: January 2025

With the growth of the timber and brewing industries, the production of waste such as malt husks and wood chips has increased, as well as the generation of their respective effluents, which can be harmful, as they are rich in nitrate, an essential nutrient for algae, and can therefore generate eutrophication. In order to remove nitrate, conventional reactors have two compartments, one for nitrification and the other for denitrification. Aiming to convert nitrate into molecular nitrogen and evolve in the research of reactors that promote nitrification and denitrification in a single reactor, this research was carried out, the objective of which was to evaluate the possibility of using malt husk and wood chips as a source of carbon and supporting medium in the biological conversion process of Nitrate into gaseous Nitrogen. This research consisted of two phases, the first to fix the microorganisms in the bioreactor and the second to treat the effluent. In phase 1, samples were collected every 24 hours in order to visualize the inoculation through nitrate analysis and chemical oxygen demand. Phase 2 consisted of collections every 12 hours and comparisons of nitrate removals were made. After phase 2, the reactors and carbon sources were compared, after which nitrate removals were reached above 58% for the chip and above 65% for the malt husk, with these results, it is concluded that the sources are viable as a carbon source in the biological conversion of nitrate in NDS reactors.

The aim of the research was to evaluate the use of bovine, equine and caprine biocatalysts in the composting process to treat organic waste from a school in São Luís/MA, in order to assess the performance of the composting process and the quality of the organic compost generated. To this end, 03 composting beds were set up (adapted from the "Windrow" bed system), where the volume was calculated according to the carbon/nitrogen ratio. Each bed contained bovine, equine and caprine biocatalyst, waste generated in the school restaurant and tree and grass prunings. The food waste was quantified and classified. The lack of environmentally appropriate management of organic waste in school food and nutrition units results in the emission of unpleasant odors, favors the proliferation of disease vectors and contributes to the emission of methane, which intensifies global warming. Composting is one of the alternatives for treating organic waste, as it can reduce its volume by more than 60%, producing a stable material to be used as a soil conditioner. As a result, it was found that composting with school waste and using bovine, equine and caprine biocatalysts performed well, as the parameters of Organic Matter; pH; Phosphorus; Potassium, Calcium; Magnesium; Sodium; Aluminum; CTC and Base Saturation (V%) were in accordance with the values allowed in the literature. Therefore, the use of bovine, equine and caprine biocatalysts benefits the process of recycling animal manure and organic waste, generating quality compost.
Tissue Mito-IP: Immunopurification of Mitochondria from MitoTag Mice v1
Authors: Themistokleous Christos
Published: January 2025

Cell organelles represent a minor fraction of the total cellular content, making whole-cell profiling inadequate for monitoring changes in the mitochondrial proteome, metabolome, and lipidome. Traditional techniques for purifying mitochondria have inherent limitations, often compromising organelle purity, isolation time, or viability. Additionally, the components of conventional organellar isolation buffers, such as sucrose, can interfere with mass spectrometry (MS) profiling. To overcome these challenges, a novel method called 'Mito-IP,' was developed which facilitates the rapid immunopurification of pure and intact mitochondria. This method enables mitochondrial isolation within 10 minutes and supports various downstream applications, including immunoblotting, proteomic, metabolomic, and other -omic analyses. The method employs a chimeric protein comprising of three HA epitope tags fused to the outer mitochondrial membrane protein OMP25 (rat, aa109-145). An LC/MS-compatible buffer (termed 'KPBS') was also developed containing only KCl and KH₂PO₄, significantly improving performance and mitochondrial viability. Following the success of the Mito-IP method, the same epitope-tagged concept is being extended to the isolation of other organelles, including lysosomes (Lyso-IP), Golgi (Golgi-IP), and peroxisomes (Peroxo-IP). The following optimised protocol details the immunoprecipitation of mitochondria from tissues of MitoTag mice. The same steps apply to the immunopurification of other organelles when the HA-epitope tag is present on the organelle of interest. Tissues are collected and homogenized using a dounce homogenizer in KPBS buffer. After the release of intact organelles from the cells, the homogenate is incubated with anti-HA magnetic beads for 5 minutes, allowing the beads to bind to the mitochondria. Using a magnetic separator, the mitochondria-bound beads are drawn to the side of the tube. Following three washes, an appropriate lysis buffer is added for downstream analysis.
Comprehensive Protocol for Total Protein Extraction, Precipitation, and Assay Measurement from Plankton Samples v2
Authors: Hu Ying-Yu
Published: January 2025

This protocol outlines an optimized method for extracting total protein from plankton samples, encompassing both phytoplankton and zooplankton. The procedure involves the use of lysing matrix tubes with beads of varying sizes (0.1 mm, 1.4 mm, and 4 mm), eight homogenizing cycles, and a protein extraction buffer composed of 2% SDS, 10% glycerol, 5 mM EDTA in 100 mM Tris (pH 7). The extracted crude protein is quantified using the Pierce Micro BCA assay equivalent to bovine serum albumin (BSA), with a linear detection range of 12.5 to 1000 ug/sample. To remove interference from chlorophyll, monosaccharides and other substances, the extracted protein undergoes precipitation using a chloroform and methanol solvent mixture, followed by re-dissolution in re-solubilization buffer composed of 1% sarcosine in 50 mM Tris (pH 7). BCA assay is then used to quantify the precipitated protein, with BSA as the standard. The absence of glycerol and the use of sarcosine instead of SDS enable a linear detection range of 5 to 2000 µg/sample. https://assets.thermofisher.com/TFS-Assets/LSG/manuals/MAN0011430_Pierce_BCA_Protein_Asy_UG.pdf

Kuala Lumpur City (KLC) is susceptible to disasters because of its large population, crucial infrastructure, and vital economy. In this study, we used the disaster risk maps generated for flash floods and landslide hazards in KLC to identify key areas for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief (HADR) activities. We employed analysis and simulations to determine the most effective evacuation routes from key areas to crucial HADR centres, including medical facilities, police stations, fire stations, and temporary evacuation centres, during a disaster. We conducted the investigation by considering factors like evacuation time, route accessibility, and overall efficiency. We proposed multiple routes during the disaster scenario, including the use of alternative roads with reduced capacity if the major roads became inaccessible. This case study highlights the significance of ongoing evaluation and improvement of evacuation preparations. The measures, including the use of cutting-edge traffic management systems, frequent practice sessions and instruction for emergency responders, and heightened public awareness and preparedness initiatives, could potentially improve evacuation time. By implementing these strategies, KLC may enhance its ability to withstand and respond to disaster scenarios, thereby safeguarding lives and mitigating the potential consequences of disasters. The results of this study could provide useful insights for Kuala Lumpur City Hall to plan evacuation routes during a disaster.

This paper investigates the correlation between rubber elasticity and strain measurement, aiming to advance the understanding and utilization of natural rubber in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). Natural rubber, derived from latex found in rubber-producing plants, possesses exceptional elasticity and resilience, allowing strain measurement applications. This study employs strain gauge sensors and a Wheatstone bridge configuration to accurately assess the strain experienced by various rubber samples which are Rubber 1, Rubber 2, and Rubber 3 under different loading conditions. The differences between all three rubber samples are in the content of carbon black of size in the rubber. Rubber 1 contains carbon black of size N330 (60%), Rubber 2 contains carbon black of size N550 (60%), and Rubber 3 does not contain any carbon black. Through experimental analysis, it is demonstrated that as the applied load increases, the measured strain detected by the strain gauge rises, leading to an increase in the bridge output voltage. The proposed method, Rubber 2 is increased 11.94% in elasticity compared to Rubber 1 and Rubber 3 increased 15.82% in elasticity compared to Rubber 1. Among the tested rubber samples, Rubber 3 with higher elasticity exhibits a more signifi cant increase in output voltage, indicating a stronger response to applied stress. The proposed strain measurement system effectively captures rubber elasticity, providing valuable insights into the mechanical properties of rubber components. Furthermore, this research aligns with Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), particularly SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, by leveraging Malaysia’s abundant natural rubber resources for innovative applications in structural health monitoring. Overall, this study contributes to the advancement of SHM techniques and the sustainable utilization of natural resources, with potential implications for various industries, including civil engineering and material science.
Unequal Turnout Among the Newly Enfranchised: The Role of Political Efficacy

Published: January 2025

Unequal political participation increasingly challenges democracies. The turnout gap is particularly large among younger voters, with severe implications for future developments of democratic representation, legitimacy, and quality. This article focuses on the role of political efficacy beliefs in explaining unequal turnout among newly enfranchised citizens. We argue that internal political efficacy beliefs are particularly important for turnout among the newly enfranchised from lower-class backgrounds, as they lack alternative mobilizing factors such as politically aware and active parents, political knowledge, and mobilizing networks. Furthermore, we argue that once these voters successfully turn out in their first election, they are as likely as those from higher-class backgrounds to turn out in their second election. We empirically test these arguments using original longitudinal data on newly enfranchised citizens from three German federal states (Bundesländer). Overall, our results support the argument: Political efficacy beliefs are a stronger predictor of first turnout among young adults from disadvantaged backgrounds compared to those from more advantaged backgrounds, and those who do turn out are as likely as those with higher-class backgrounds to turn out in their second election. This highlights the relevance of political efficacy beliefs in the (re)production of persisting political inequality.

The syndrome of mental retardation with congenital anomalies of type 99, limited to the female sex (OMIM: 300968) is an X-linked dominant disorder of the development of the central nervous system, characterized by delayed psychomotor development and mild or moderate mental retardation.

In the article, a clinical case of a 2-year-old 8-month-old patient with mental retardation syndrome and type 99 congenital anomalies characteristic only of the female sex (OMIM: 300968) is presented. Due to the heterozygous carriage of a previously undescribed pathogenic variant with a reading frame shift in the X-linked USP9X gene associated with a type 99 developmental disorder with dominant inheritance, in chrX:41196714AATTG>A, ENST00000378308, C.4214_4217delATT.P.Asp1405fs. The pathogenic variant was confirmed in the child in the study of the trio by Sanger. It is absent from the parents (a new pathogenic variant). Along with cognitive impairments, the patient revealed congenital anomalies, some of which coincided with those previously described. There were also some special features: the asymmetry of the skull in the described patient was expressed in the parietal part of the skull, and not the facial one, as described in previous publications. Secondary mitochondrial disorders were revealed during the study of the activity of mitochondrial enzymes in peripheral blood lymphocytes, which are an “enzymatic mirror” of tissues, which is an indication for the appointment of energotropic drugs (succinic acid and carnitine).

Yakın Dönem Türk Sinemasında İktidar Kavramına Weber’ci Bir Bakış: Okul Tıraşı ve Çatlak Film Örnekleri
Authors: Dugan Selvi Ece
Published: January 2025

Sinema, bir dil olarak kabul edilmesinden itibaren; doğrudan veya dolaylı, muhalif veya olumlayıcı olarak iktidar kavramını kendine konu edinmiştir. İktidar ilişkileri, otorite problemleri, güç sahipliği ve gücün kullanımı gibi kavramlar daima sinemada kendine yer bulmuştur. Türk sinemasında da iktidar teması filmlerde sıklıkla yer almıştır. 1990’lı yılların sonuna ve hatta 2000’li yıllara kadar yapılmış olan Türk filmlerinde daha çok eril bir iktidar ve bu bağlamda kurulan tahakküm, filmlerin anlatıları içerisinde kendine yer bulurken, 2000’li yıllardan sonra üretilmeye başlanan filmlerde yer alan iktidar ögesi farklı boy şekillerde izleyiciye sunulmaya başlamıştır. 2010’lu yıllar itibariyle Yakın Dönem Türk Sineması olarak adlandırılan dönemde üretim yapmakta olan bağımsız sinemacıların iktidar kavramını ele alış biçimlerini analiz etmek bu araştırmanın temel problemini oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma kapsamında Ferit Karahan’ın 2021 yılında gösterime giren Okul Tıraşı filmi ve Fikret Reyhan’ın 2020 yılında gösterime giren Çatlak filmi karakterler temel alınarak içerik analizi yöntemi ile incelenecektir. Araştırmanın kuramsal çerçevesini Max Weber’in iktidar anlayışı ve otorite kuramı oluşturmaktadır. Sonuç olarak; iktidar anlatısının her seferinde yeniden üretildiği bu filmlerde karakterlerin, otorite sahiplerinin iradeleri karşısında kendi istekleri dışında şekillendiği sonucuna ve filmlerin mekânsal özelliklerinin karakterler üzerinde kurulan iktidar anlatılarını desteklediği ve otorite sahiplerinin iradelerini kabul ettirmeleri noktasında en büyük dayanaklarından bir tanesi konumunda olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, göstergebilim analiz yöntemi kullanarak öğrenci uygulamalarının sosyo-ekonomik düzeye ve cinsiyet değişkenine bağlı olarak ne tür özellikleri barındırdığını belirlemektir. Araştırma, karma araştırma yöntemi ile gerçekleştirilmiş olup 2022-2023 öğretim yılında Ankara’daki Halide Edip Adıvar Ortaokulunda ve Polis Amca Ortaokulunda öğrenim gören 36 öğrenci çalışma grubunu oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri, resim uygulaması, yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme ve araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan anket ile toplanmıştır. Öğrenciler “doğa” ve “yol” temalarında iki çalışma gerçekleştirmiştir. Verilerin analizi, Peirce’in “görüntüsel gösterge, belirti, simge”, Barthes’ın “düz anlam ve yan anlam” ve Saussure’ün “gösterge, gösteren, gösterilen” şemaları kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucuna göre, yol temalı çalışmalarda alt sosyo-ekonomik düzeydeki öğrenciler genellikle görüntüsel gösterge ve belirti kullanırken, üst sosyo-ekonomik düzeydekiler ise daha çok simge kullanmıştır. Ayrıca, alt sosyo-ekonomik düzeydeki öğrencilerin daha fazla düz anlam, üst sosyo-ekonomik düzeydeki öğrencilerin ise yan anlam kullandığı; cinsiyet değişkenine göre ise öğrencilerin birbirine yakın oranda gösterge türleri kullandığı görülmüştür. Doğa temalı çalışmalarda ise, her iki sosyo-ekonomik düzeydeki öğrenciler birbirlerine yakın gösterge türleri, düz anlam ve yan anlam kullanmıştır. Öğrenci çalışmalarının “gösterge, gösteren, gösterilen” şemasına göre analizlerde ise sosyo-ekonomik düzey ve cinsiyet değişkenine bağlı farklılıklar gözlemlenmiştir.

Authors: Türkmen N. Ceren
Published: January 2025

Bu çalışma, George Orwell’in "1984", Ayn Rand’ın "Atlas Silkindi" ve Aldous Huxley’in "Cesur Yeni Dünya" romanlarındaki makroekonomik kurguyu inceleyerek, distopik edebiyatın ekonomik sistemleri eleştirme, geleceği öngörme ve sürdürülebilirlik kavramını irdeleme kapasitesini ortaya koymayı amaçlamıştır. Araştırma, bu eserlerin kendi dönemlerinin ekonomik kaygılarını nasıl yansıttığını, farklı ekonomik sistemlerin potansiyel sonuçlarını nasıl dramatize ettiğini ve günümüz ekonomik yapılarıyla nasıl ilişkilendirilebileceğini analiz etmiştir. İnceleme sonucunda, her üç romanın da ekonomiyi toplumsal kontrolün bir aracı olarak sunduğu, ancak bu kontrolün uygulanma biçiminin ve altında yatan makroekonomik teorilerin önemli ölçüde farklılık gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Çalışma, bu romanların günümüz ekonomik sistemleriyle ve sürdürülebilirlik zorluklarıyla dikkat çekici paralellikler gösterdiğini ortaya koymuştur. Distopik vizyonlar, ekonomik sistemlerin toplum ve çevre üzerindeki derin etkilerini vurgulayarak, ekonomi, toplum ve ekoloji arasındaki karmaşık ilişkiyi anlamamıza katkıda bulunmaktadır. Bu edebi vizyonların sunduğu perspektiflerden faydalanmak, gelecekteki ekonomik sistemleri tasarlarken ve değerlendirirken daha dengeli, sürdürülebilir ve insani ekonomik modeller geliştirmeye katkıda bulunabilir. Sonuç olarak, distopik edebiyat, ekonomistler, politika yapıcılar, sürdürülebilirlik uzmanları ve toplum bilimciler için değerli bir kaynak olmaya devam edecektir.

It is known that the intestinal microbiome plays an important role in many biological processes of the human body. However, all factors and mechanisms influencing changes in the composition of the intestinal microbiome are not fully understood. As the results of previous studies show, long-term food preferences play a significant role in modulating the composition of the intestinal microbiota. At the same time, all the mechanisms fully reflecting the peculiarities of the relationship of vitamins, trace elements, and the composition of the intestinal microbiota are not adequately characterized.
Vitamins and trace elements have a bidirectional effect on the intestinal microbiota. On the one hand, they influence the composition of the microbiota, its representation, number, and diversity. On the other hand, the microbiota is involved in the metabolism of trace elements, including the synthesis of certain vitamins.
In this review, we have tried to summarize the currently known information reflecting the relationship between the main microelements and the bacterial community of the gut. The review showed that some vitamins, with additional use, entering the colon modulate its microbiome, increase and maintain the bacterial diversity of the gut microbiota, which affects the amount of synthesized short-chain fatty acids. Several vitamins, such as vitamins A and D, can also affect intestinal immunity and its barrier functions.
Improvement of interhemispheric interaction by polyprenol and nootropic agents in a visual evoked potential model in rabbits
Authors: Kuznetsova Natalia N. , Shabanov Petr D.
Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND: Interhemispheric interaction is a complex mechanism that integrates the left and right hemispheres into a cohesive system, enabling compensation for functional impairments in one hemisphere. Studies of visual evoked brain potentials (VEPs) provide objective data on the state of visual analyzers under various brain conditions.
AIM: To investigate interhemispheric interactions in male rabbits using light flash-evoked visual potentials and to compare the effects of polyprenol (administered at doses of 2 and 10 mg/kg) with the nootropic agents piracetam and aminophenylbutyric acid.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 25 male Chinchilla rabbits implanted with epidural silver chloride electrodes above the visual cortex. Visual evoked potentials in response to light flashes presented from different directions were recorded. Changes in the latency and amplitude of primary response components — negative oscillations at 75 ms (N75) and positive oscillations at 100 ms (P100) — were evaluated under the influence of polyprenol at doses of 2 and 10 mg/kg and compared with piracetam and aminophenylbutyric acid, which were administered intraperitoneally.
RESULTS: Polyprenol, like the comparator drugs, improved brain information processing during light stimulation of both eyes by either reducing latency or increasing amplitude. A comparison of VEP responses recorded from the hemisphere opposite to the light stimulus revealed greater reactions in the right hemisphere during left eye stimulation than vice versa.
CONCLUSIONS: Polyprenol at a dose of 2 mg/kg reduces response latency in VEPs during bilateral light stimulation, while a dose of 10 mg/kg increases amplitude. The interhemispheric interaction observed in rabbits is comparable to aminophenylbutyric acid and surpasses that of piracetam when polyprenol is administered at 2 mg/kg.

Bilgi teknolojileri ve sosyal medyanın gelişimiyle birlikte örgütler, çalışan savunuculuğu davranışlarına daha fazla önem vermeye başlamışlardır. Bu bağlamda çalışmada Baron ve Kenny’nin (1986) geliştirdiği aracı değişken analizi ölçütlerinden yararlanılarak, iş tatmininin çalışan savunuculuğuna etkisinde işyeri mutluluğunun aracı etkisinin olup olmadığı incelenmiştir. Isparta il merkezinde kafe ve restoranlarda çalışan 308 katılımcıdan elde edilen veriler analiz edilmiştir. Veri toplama amacıyla kullanılan ölçeklerin açıklayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri yapılmıştır.

The Brahmagupta Equation and Record Numbers
Authors: Patterson Christine
Published: January 2025

The Diophantine equation x2 - Dy2 = k has
been explored since antiquity and has found significant applications in diverse
contexts in mathematics. This thesis focuses on two aspects of solutions of this
equation:

For fixed k, the sizes of the D values for which there is a solution, and
the corresponding sizes of the x and y constituting solutions. This
topic is previously uninvestigated and our contribution is
data-based.

For fixed k and D for which the equation is solvable, statistical
properties of the x and y occurring in these solutions. We prove that
Benford's Law applies to the solution sets.

Forecasting Parameters of a Regional DSGE Model Based on The Bayesian Approach: Behavioral Aspect
Authors: Rusinova Mariia
Published: January 2025

The paper presents an innovative approach to forecasting regional development in an open economy based on the synthesis of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models and agent-based models. In order to improve forecasting accuracy, behavioral characteristics of households making decisions based on individual preferences were integrated into dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models. As a result of the implementation of a regional DSGE model for an open economy in the Matlab application package, using the Bayesian method, forecast estimates of the model parameters for the Russian economy were obtained and the reaction of the economy to the shock of public spending on the social sphere was shown. Bayesian estimation of the parameters was carried out using the Dynare package. The sensitivity levels of the response functions considering economies’ parameters of specific regions and their dependence on each other in terms of trade intensity, capital and labor mobility were assessed. At the same time, when modeling the indicator of labor migration, which reflects the inclination to change the location, the individual preferences of agents were taken into account. To do this, the results of calibration of the migration elasticity parameter obtained during the processing of statistical information in the AnyLogic software product were integrated into the extended version of the regional DSGE model for an open economy and various development options are predicted.
New Old Trends in Economic Thought
Authors: Abbasova Sevinj
Published: January 2025

The socio-economic and ecological development of the country indicates the feasibility of a new high-quality approach to solving the existing problems in the global economic development. The new quality is a new model of economic growth and development taking into account environmental problems, since environmental protection issues have become more active. At the same time, growth means an increase in the scale of production of goods and services, and development is an improvement in the conditions and technologies for this production for the development of a "green" economy in the context of strengthening the sovereignty of countries and growing domestic demand. Economic theory should determine the priorities of economic policy, since more attention is now paid to the structural features of the economic system. It is important to identify the structural features of the emerging synthetic theory based on the concept of equilibrium and the concept of the institutional-historical school. It is important to turn to real practice and search for a cause-and-effect relationship, rather than a correlation between the available data. To carry out the transition of the state to an economic type, which is primarily associated with the need to intensify and increase the efficiency of the domestic economy, the growth of digitalization and the creation of the foundations for inclusive growth. Growth not for the sake of growth, but growth for the purpose of ensuring sustainable and high-quality development of the country, reducing the country's dependence and increasing the complexity of the economic structure. In the current conditions, environmental significance has increased, which is one of the main components of the new model of economic growth and development, contributing to the transition to a more diversified structure.
Fuzzy Pattern Recognition Method for Estimating Azerbaijan Green Growth Index
Authors: Imanov Gorkmaz
Published: January 2025

This paper proposes a fuzzy pattern recognition method (FPRM) developed to estimate the Green Growth Index (GGI) level of Azerbaijan, which is one of the main Sustainable Development Goals. The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) uses the geometric mean method as a general calculation of GGI for this purpose. The proposed FPRM method takes into account the inherent uncertainty and fuzziness of GGI indicators, in which using fuzzy logic methods, it improves the accuracy and reliability of GGI assessment. The proposed approach advances the current work with the developed fuzzy pattern recognition process method and algorithm. The computational results demonstrate the effectiveness of the FPRM model in assessing GGI levels for Azerbaijan. The study contributes to the development of green growth research and promotes evidence-based decision making for sustainable development by providing a structured methodology for assessing and improving GGI.

Authors: Alguliyev Rasim
Published: January 2025

This article studies conceptual bases of Azerbaijani language ecosystem formation in the e-government.
 
The digital age, characterized by the development of technology and benefits of the Internet, threatens the preservation of linguistic diversity. Technological revolutions, disasters, pandemics, wars and rapid changes in the demographic situation in the world lead to the destruction of language ecosystems and the disappearance of language diversity. In this regard, protection of language diversity has become one of the urgent issues in the rapidly globalizing world under the influence of information technologies. Therefore, protection of the Azerbaijani language and development of various language services on the e-government platform is one of the relevant issues. Intellectual methods, algorithms and applications must be developed in order to make national languages an integral part of e-government and to ensure the natural development of this platform on all segments. The article examines approaches, views and initiatives related to the impact of globalization on the linguistic-cultural space and language processes. Effects on languages of peoples of the world in the digital age and innovations caused by digitization were analyzed, an overview of related works was conducted, and problems of the Azerbaijani language in online environment were indicated. Issues of the preservation of language diversity and application of linguistic technologies in e-government have been studied. The study shows the necessity of creating different language services for the formation of the Azerbaijani language ecosystem. The article proposes approaches regarding the formation of Azerbaijani language ecosystem on e-government platform and indicates complex issues to be solved by application of linguistic technologies.
Research on the Possibility of Applying Web Scraping Methods for Open Data to Build Agent-Based Models
Authors: Burilina Maria
Published: January 2025

The demand for data to create various predictive and behavioral models, including agent-based modeling (ABM), is growing every year. At the same time, legal regulation and the technical implementation of one of the most common methods for collecting open data—web scraping—are becoming more complicated. This paper examines the applicability criteria of the scraping method for collecting data needed to build ABM models and provides examples of data sources and methods for collecting them.
An example here is the behavior when a given agent already possesses intelligence and can construct optimization problems guided not only by economic benefit, but also by feelings. This is exactly the kind of data that can be obtained through the scraping tool. However, there is still no legal framework to authorize or prohibit the use of this data in science. In addition, large corporations such as Apple, Google, Yandex use user data within corporations, legally it is fixed by the user agreement.
At the same time, the legal regulation and technical implementation of one of the most common methods of collecting open data - web scraping (hereinafter-scraping) - is becoming more complicated. This paper discusses the applicability criteria of the scraping method for collecting data necessary for the construction of ASM, and provides examples of data sources and methods of data collection.
Artificial Intelligence implementation for natural Disasters Management: systematization of approaches and risk clustering
Authors: Abramova Anna
Published: January 2025

Every year in one region or another of the world there are constant natural disasters (severe river floods, dam and levee breaks, earthquakes, storms and hurricanes, forest and peat fires). This research systematizes approaches to assessing the possibility of using artificial intelligence (AI) in natural disasters. The authors are the first to systematize the risks of using this technology for disaster management. Risk clustering was carried out based on the methodology proposed by the International Telecommunication Union to identify four stages within the disaster management cycle – mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. The paper shows how the use of AI in disaster management allows, on the one hand, to increase the efficiency of specialists at all four identified stages. On the other hand, clustering the risks of using AI within this subject area from the point of view of management stages allows us to identify three main areas of further work related to data quality and optimal provision of ICT infrastructure.
Simulation of the Influence of Memory on People's perception and Behavior within the Framework of an Agent-based Model as an Artificial Society: Problem Statement
Authors: Sushko Elena
Published: January 2025

In the work developing the methodology for creating an artificial society, presents the concept of a large agent-based model of Russia, which includes cognitive agents of different types, possessing memory and a system of attitudes (values). The main type of agent is a human agent, and other types of agents represent various social actors in the model - groups of human agents related by territorial, industrial, family characteristics or by any interests. In the latter case, one human agent can simultaneously belong to several groups. Mechanisms have been developed for simulating the influence of groups, which include a human agent, on its attitudes, perception of reality and in the process of forming an action program. The behavior of human agents is constructed based on the application of the theory of functional systems by P.K. Anokhin, which he defined as a logical model of artificial intelligence. The concept is intended for the implementation of the model for launching on supercomputers.
