Konya Müdafaa-i Hukuk Cemiyeti Kuruluşu ve Faaliyetleri
Authors: Semiz Yaşar
Published: December 2023

"After the Armistice of Mudros, Anatolia began to be occupied by the Entente States, and in order to achieve their goals, they encouraged uprisings with the support of weapons and money in places that resisted them. In response to this situation, patriotic people all over the country established organizations such as ‘National Forces’ (Kuvayı Milliye) and ‘Defence of Rights’ in order to fight against invasions and rebellions and to make the voice of the nation heard to the public and the world. These organizations, which were regional in the beginning, later gathered under a single roof and played an active role in the National Struggle. During the years of the National Struggle, one of the Defense of Rights Associations, which was formed against invasion attempts and rebellions, was established in Konya. Since Konya was an important supply center for the Istanbul Government and the occupied states and was kept under pressure, it was delayed in establishing its national organization when other provinces were taken into account. This situation has also caused some negative criticisms and evaluations. Among the criticisms are statements such as that the notables of Konya and its people were indifferent to the National Struggle, and that they took a pro-Government and pro- Occupation Force stance. However, such accusations are not true. Konya has made important contributions to the National Struggle with the establishment of the Defense of Rights Society. Among these, it is noteworthy that national feelings in Konya remain awake and alive, protests against occupations and unfair practices, material and moral aid to the army fighting at the front, and the attempt to recruit volunteers for the army.In this study, first of all, the place and importance of Konya in terms of the National Struggle will be mentioned. Then, the establishment process of the Konya Defense of Rights Society, the reasons for its late participation in the National Struggle were questioned, and the difficulties encountered during the establishment of the national organizations were emphasized, and the foundation, activities and contribution of the society to the national struggle were evaluated."

Introduction: We discuss the occurrence of a unique triad of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), myocarditis, and thrombus in a patient without risk factors.

Case Report: A 26-year-old male referred to our facility for invasive intervention after presenting with sudden onset chest pain for which an initial electrocardiogram (ECG) showed an anterolateral ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and a troponin-I level of 425,923 ng/dL. Upon arrival, an urgent coronary angiography revealed a type II spontaneous SCAD of the left anterior descending artery with extensive myocarditis on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with a subsequent development of an apical thrombus. He was medically optimized and discharged in a stable state.

Conclusion: The complex interplay between SCAD, myocarditis, and thrombus development remains unclear and though rare, it serves as a relevant hypothesis-generating basis for future inquiry. Awareness of the concomitant occurrence of these entities is paramount to facilitating tailored management of affected patients.

Influence of corporate life cycle on accrual-based earnings management
Authors: Huian Maria Carmen , Mironiuc Marilena
Published: December 2023

This study investigates the opportunistic behavior of managers in reporting the company earnings within the different stages of the corporate life cycle, classified according to the characteristics of their cash flows. On a sample of 73 companies listed on the main segment of the Bucharest Stock Exchange during 2007-2021 and 996 annual observations, the paper uses Least Square Dummy Variable panel data analysis and demonstrates that in the initial stage of the life cycle managers are tempted to exploit the characteristics of the accrual-based accounting to enhance the reported results. Conversely, as firms grow and mature, accrual-based earnings management is no longer so tempting. In addition, stock returns are an incentive for management to try to improve the perception of capital market participants. The field of activity appears to be another important determinant of the level of use of earnings management. Finally, no significant link can be established between the age of the company and the propensity to manipulate earnings

Authors: Vieru Roman , Lazari Liliana
Published: December 2023

The administration of taxes and fees was one of the main concerns of the state which during the evolution of this system introduced and revised different techniques and methods to achieve its economic and social needs. In this research, the method of taxation of taxpayers from a sector well defined by the legislator, the subject entities of the small and medium enterprises sector, which over time has undergone a certain metamorphosis with regard to some adjustments and additions, is examined. The diversification of the taxation system, its adaptation to the real needs of small entrepreneurs who have a multilateral influence on economic development, is one of the main techniques for supporting and defending this sector, a fact for which various scholars and experts in the field have dedicated numerous researches in this area sense. The practice of diversifying taxation regimes is not only an identification of the optimal regime for certain economic agents or fields of activity, but also a tendency to respect a basic principle of taxation, the principle of fiscal equity. The basis of this principle is the differentiated taxation of income and wealth according to the contributory power of the subject

Evaluation: goals, principles, approaches
Authors: Frunze Rodica , Curagau Natalia
Published: December 2023

There are several methods of determining the current (new) cost of a property. The most important are the estimate method, indexation, cost-capacity, as well as other technical methods. The appraiser should be aware that a price quote obtained from a supplier may be significantly different from that obtained from a current or potential buyer; also, manufacturers' price discounts can vary widely, and shipping and handling costs should be included or added. Regardless of the method used to obtain reference cost materials - verbal, written or electronic - a good relationship must be maintained with the individuals and companies providing them. A good relationship with manufacturers and traders will facilitate access to this information and generate useful contacts in the respective industry. These contacts can provide valuable information about general economic trends, current market conditions and anticipated developments. Personal contact with other appraisers is one of the best sources of information regarding costs and references.

Authors: Dima Maria , Grigoroi Lilia
Published: December 2023

This article briefly examines the main differences between the previous requirements, related to the six elements of the quality management system, and the requirements of the new ISQM 1, related to the already eight interconnected components, which are aligned with the previous elements, but also include two new components: (i) the risk assessment process within the company; (ii) Information and communication. The article also highlights the particularities of the three international quality management audit standards. To achieve the proposed goal, the authors applied analysis, documentary research, comparison, estimation, and professional reasoning as research methods. Thus, through the analysis and documentary research of the normative framework, the interpretation and explanation of the changes made in the content of the mentioned standards was exposed. The comparison method was useful for the quantitative and qualitative determination of the changes between the versions of the repealed standards and the approved ones. For this, we carried out a descriptive-explanatory study of ISQM 1 "Quality management for firms that perform audits, or reviews of financial statements or other assurance missions or related services", of ISQM 2 " Engagement Quality Reviews", of ISA 220 (revised) "Quality management for an audit of financial statements" considered relevant for the intended purpose.

Assessing climate change impacts on the spatial distribution of Castanea sativa Mill. using ecological niche modeling
Authors: CEDANO GIRALDO Daniela , MUMCU KÜÇÜKER Derya
Published: December 2023

In recent decades, ecological niche modeling (ENM) has become integral for assessing climate change impacts on species distributions. In this study we conducted a comprehensive ENM using the Kuenm R package, employing MaxEnt as the modeling algorithm, to evaluate the impact of climate change on the habitat of Castanea sativa Mill., a non-wood forest species of high commercial interest in Turkiye, within the limits of the Trabzon Regional Directorate of Forestry (RDF). Predictors related to the species' ecology were carefully selected. The Future distributions of C. sativa for 2061–2080 under Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSPs) 1-2.6, 2-4.5, and 5-8.5 were modeled using predictions from the Hadley Centre Global Earth Model HadGEM-GC31-LL. Extensive calibration modeling with Kuenm resulted in 434 models, and the most robust model, determined by statistical significance, predictive power, and complexity, revealed a drastic reduction in suitable areas for C. sativa (ranging from 86% to 99% across SSPs). The critical values of bio1 and bio5 were identified as primary factors. Predictions suggest potential migration of C. sativa to higher latitudes or elevations seeking more favorable climatic conditions. The substantial reduction in habitat suitability, even under SSP1-2.6, poses a significant threat, emphasizing the need for urgent measures to mitigate climate change impacts and ensure the species' survival and continuity.

Authors: Silva Leonídia Aparecida Pereira da , Carneiro Virginia Teles
Published: December 2023

O presente artigo objetiva identificar a atuação e as práticas desenvolvidas por psicólogos na assistência estudantil universitária brasileira, considerando a promoção à permanência dos universitários beneficiados por políticas de ações afirmativas.  Para tanto, foi realizada uma revisão sistemática da literatura em teses e dissertações publicadas no período de 2010 a 2019. Quatro trabalhos foram incluídos e outros 637 excluídos após análise. Utilizou-se a Análise de Conteúdo para a interpretação dos dados. As categorias formadas foram: ações em psicologia clínica e ações em psicologia escolar e educacional. Destaca-se a baixa quantidade de estudos que focalizaram este tema e a prevalência de práticas individualizantes, em especial, voltadas para a Psicologia Clínica e a Psicologia Escolar e Educacional focando nomeadamente nos estudantes, de modo a isentar outros atores sociais envolvidos. A partir de tais resultados, defende-se que o profissional de psicologia que atua na assistência estudantil universitária brasileira, contemple abordagens não apenas individuais aos estudantes, mas também coletivas, entre elas, grupos de apoio, ações em âmbitos institucionais e políticos.

“Você Deixa de ser uma Pessoa com Direitos a Partir do Momento em que Fala que é Homossexual”: Violência de Gênero Sofrida no Cotidiano por Mulheres Lésbicas de Camadas Médias
Authors: Souza Carolina De , Santos Manoel Antônio dos
Published: December 2023

Mulheres cisgênero lésbicas são confrontadas em seu cotidiano com situações de dupla violência, relacionadas à desqualificação e desvalor atribuídos tanto ao gênero como à orientação sexual. Este estudo teve por objetivo compreender os significados atribuídos às experiências de preconceito e discriminação sofridas por mulheres lésbicas de camadas médias. Trata-se de um estudo clínico-qualitativo fundamentado no olhar interseccional dos estudos de gênero. Participaram seis mulheres brancas de 22 a 59 anos de camadas médias, que se autoidentificavam como lésbicas. Para construção do corpus de análise foram realizadas entrevistas individuais gravadas em áudio. Os dados foram analisados e discutidos na perspectiva da análise temática reflexiva. Foram construídas cinco categorias: ambiente de trabalho, família de origem, relações de amizade, serviços de saúde e pessoas desconhecidas. Os resultados mostram que pessoas que perpetram violência contra lésbicas não toleram a possibilidade de que duas mulheres possam manter relacionamento afetivo-sexual e se utilizam de estratégias de apagamento (insultos, deboche, desrespeito, indiferença) para depreciá-las, invisibilizá-las e discriminá-las. Os ataques recorrentes às lesbianidades têm como função manter a hegemonia do modelo heterocentrado. Examinar os significados atribuídos às experiências de preconceito e discriminação sofridas por mulheres lésbicas pode encorajar o desenvolvimento de intervenções culturalmente sensíveis e a efetivação de políticas públicas voltadas a essa população.

Arthroscopic remplissage: history, indications, and clinical outcomes
Authors: Fares Mohamad Y. , Daher Mohammad , Boufadel Peter , Haikal Emil R. , Koa Jonathan , Singh Jaspal , Abboud Joseph A.
Published: December 2023

Several surgical procedures have been proposed to address anterior glenohumeral instability, which is one of the most common complaints in the general population. The remplissage, first described in early 2000s, is a procedure performed simultaneously with the arthroscopic Bankart repair to correct large, engaging Hill-Sachs lesions (HSLs). This procedure stabilizes the joint by tenodesing the infraspinatus tendon into the HSL to fill and disengage the defect. This procedure gained popularity because it has relatively low risk and is able to improve shoulder stability while being less invasive than other bone-blocking procedures. The remplissage has become a valuable add-on technique that can substantially improve outcomes in unstable patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair. Nevertheless, several studies in the literature have raised concerns regarding its efficacy in critically unstable patients and the potential range of motion limitations that can arise postoperatively. Additional comparative studies and trials should be conducted to appropriately establish the role of remplissage in treating anterior instability, especially in patients with critical bone loss.

Published: December 2023

Background: Displaced olecranon fractures constitute a challenging problem for elbow surgeons. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of suture anchor fixation for treating patients with displaced olecranon fractures. Methods: A retrospective review was performed for all consecutive patients with displaced olecranon fractures treated with suture anchor fixation with at least 2 years of clinical follow-up. Surgical repair was performed acutely in all cases with nonmetallic suture anchors in a double-row configuration utilizing suture augmentation via the triceps tendon. Osseous union and perioperative complications were uniformly assessed. Results: Suture anchor fixation was performed on 17 patients with displaced olecranon fractures. Functional outcome scores were collected from 12 patients (70.6%). The mean age at the time of surgery was 65.6 years, and the mean follow-up was 5.6 years. Sixteen of 17 patients (94%) achieved osseous union in an acceptable position. No hardware-related complications or fixation failure occurred. Mean postoperative shortened disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand (QuickDASH) score was 3.8±6.9, and mean Oxford Elbow Score was 47.5±1.0, with nine patients (75%) achieving a perfect score. Conclusions: Suture anchor fixation of displaced olecranon fractures resulted in excellent midterm functional outcomes. Additionally, this technique resulted in high rates of osseous union without any hardware-related complications or fixation failures. Level of evidence: IV.
Predicting consumer acceptance of automobiles based on deep learning and traditional machine learning algorithms
Authors: Yang Linrang
Published: December 2023

Researchers have made significant progress in machine learning in recent years. Machine learning can learn and predict large and complex data sets. Researchers have divided machine learning algorithms into two categories: deep learning and traditional machine learning. Every problem can be predicted in both ways. This paper uses the "Car Data" dataset to investigate deep learning and traditional machine learning. In order to find a machine learning algorithm that is more conducive to analyzing and predicting consumers' acceptance of different cars, this paper mainly explores the differences in the prediction accuracy of the three methods of Neural Networks, Random Forest and Support Vector Machine (SVM). We construct 3-hidden layers neural networks and 4-hidden layers neural networks. After testing, it is known that the result predicted by Random Forest is the worst. The prediction accuracy of 3-hidden layers Neural Networks is similar to that by SVM. When we added an extra layer of hidden layers on the basis of 3-hidden layers, the prediction accuracy was higher than that of SVM. Adding a hidden layer can improve the prediction accuracy, and both SVM and Neural Network can be used to analyze Car Data. But not all methods have similar predictive accuracy.
A robust VGG network combined with Denoising Autoencoder module for human emotion recognition
Authors: Li Xiaotian
Published: December 2023

Human emotion can be divided into multiple categories, which makes it possible to recognize emotions automatically. One critical approach for automated emotion recognition is applying the convolutional neural network to classify emotions on human expression images, but the performance decreases if input distortions occur. This paper introduced a hybrid neural network architecture to make the automated emotion recognition robust towards distorted input images and perform similarly to prediction on clean images. This hybrid neural network combines the Denoise Autoencoder (DAE) network with the Visual Geometry Group (VGG) network. Multiple standalone VGG and Hybrid network experiments were conducted with the control variables method. FER-2013 data set from Kaggle was used as the experimental data set. Distorted input images were generated by adding random noise to clean images. As a result, the research raised a valid hybrid network architecture. The hybrid network improved the emotion classification accuracy on the distorted data set from 16.70% to 57.73%, and the accuracy is similar to the classification result on the clean data set.

Authors: Zhang Zhiding
Published: December 2023

Nowadays, commercial fraud behaviors commonly occur in many industries. However, due to obstacles like concept drift, imbalanced dataset and uneven distribution of fraud entries, Fraud Detection System (FDS) fails to identify such behaviors. Among the problems mentioned above, most research focus on dealing with skewed dataset. This paper first presents common application scenarios of FDS which consist of credit card fraud, insurance fraud and supply chain fraud. Then, this study introduces five representative methods in dealing with problems mentioned above, which are K Nearest Neighbors-Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique-Long Short-term Memory Networks (kNN-SMOTE-LSTM), Generative Adversarial Nets-AdaBoost-Decision tree (GAN-AdaBoost-DT), Wasserstein GAN-Kernel Density Estimation-Gradient Boosting DT (WGAN-KDE-GBDT), Time-LSTM (TLSTM) and Adaptive Synthetic Sampling-Sequential Forward Selection-Random Forest (ADASYN-SFS-RF). KNN-SMOTE-LSTM adopts KNN as an identifying classifier so as to only retain true samples. GAN-AdaBoost-DT generates new samples without referring to real transactions. WGAN-KDE-GBDT uses Wasserstein Distance as distance measurement instead, and thus improves training speed and guarantees successful generation. TLSTM tires to consider the weights of different time intervals and measures the similarity between the simulated behavior and the genuine behavior. ADASYN-SFS-RF employs SFS algorithm, basing on RF, to only reserve optimal subsets of features. Finally, result metrics prove that those improved algorithms do improve the overall performance of FDS, even if with limitations at some indicators.

Authors: Xiao Li , Yang Songqiao , Zhang Tianxing
Published: December 2023

Improving RAFT-based blockchain systems' performance and their relationship with environmental factors is a lack of concern in recent studies and is essential in the production environment. To attain this, it is necessary to analyze the performance, especially the blockchain system's throughput, latency, and robustness. The two most widely used RAFT-based platforms, etcd, and Hyperledger Fabric's evaluation, were conducted to discover the factors influencing the system's performance and promoting methods. The evaluation focused mainly on throughput, latency, and robustness, including evaluating the reading and writing process, changing the number of keys, connections, and clients in etcd, and comparing the process and the two platforms. The only number of clients significantly impacts etcd's performance, and etcd's performance is better than Hyperledger Fabric's. Besides, both two platform shows that reading performs better than writing. So, to improve the system's performance, controlling the number of clients and focusing on the writing process is the key.
An iterative loss correction method for deep learning with noisy labels
Authors: Chen Jiajun , Xu Xiaolun , Zheng Cheng
Published: December 2023

Noisy labelling is a prevalent issue in real-world data, often causing deep neural networks (DNNs) to overfit. Prior research in this area primarily relies on the accurate estimation of noise transition matrices, which is contingent on identifying anchor points in the clean data domain. However, current methods typically estimate the anchor points using information from the noisy labels, potentially resulting in poor estimation. In contrast, our novel method aims to enhance precision by developing an estimator that jointly learns the transition matrices and anchor points through iterative learning. Our approach is validated on the IMDB and MNIST datasets, proving to be more precise and effective than previous methods.
Study on the human-brain confusion levels and corresponding EEG levels
Authors: Luo Yuhan , Zhou Zijie , Yang Hao , He Bin
Published: December 2023

Confusion is a state in which an individual is not clear about the situation at hand, does not understand the logic of the matter, or cannot arrive at a reasoned outcome. When people are confused, they often make poor decisions or even fail to make decisions. In this paper, we tested and validated our two models using the collected EEG signals of ten students while watching online courses of different difficulty levels. Both the LSTM model and the DNN model obtained an accuracy rate close to 70% in the validation part, but they showed different characteristics. In the end, we compare and summarize the results of the two models and try to generalize them to other domains in the future.
Recognition of edible mushrooms based on different image classification methods
Authors: Wu Yuzhou
Published: December 2023

The mushroom is one of the most common foods in nature, but there are many different types and many of them are deadly. The aim of this paper is to use computer vision methods to be able to provide a range of assistance to people on safari in identifying mushrooms and the future development of mushroom poisoning and non-poisoning identification. Considering the superior performance of convolutional neural networks in image recognition and classification, the advantages of multi-layer perceptrons and deep structure make it possible to achieve high recognition accuracy, three different CNN network models, GoogLeNet ResNet and SENet were chosen. They have been used to differentiate between toxic and non-poisonous mushrooms on 11,000 mushrooms. The tests showed that SENet had the greatest results, with a recognition accuracy of over 90%. With a recognition accuracy of around 65% each, GoogLeNet and ResNet placed second and third, respectively.

Authors: Zhang Tian
Published: December 2023

This paper presents a novel approach to enhance the image classification performance by incorporating Unified Local-Scale Attention Module mechanism into the lightweight MobileViT architecture. The MobileViT+ Ultra-Lightweight Subspace Attention Module model achieved remarkable accuracy on the ISIA food-500 dataset, while maintaining computational efficiency and parameter quantity similar to the original MobileViT model. Moreover, the MobileViT+ Ultra-Lightweight Subspace Attention Module model outperforms other lightweight models such as MobileNetV2 and LCNet. The ablation experiments confirmed the effectiveness of Ultra-Lightweight Subspace Attention Module in enhancing classification accuracy and its ability to uniformly optimize multiple model structures. Additionally, this paper explored a more lightweight model that significantly reduced FLOPs and parameter quantity while maintaining the same model performance. Overall, this research provides a practical and resource-efficient approach for improving image classification performance in various deep learning.

Les Historiettes de Tallemant des Réaux : cabinet d'uchronies miniatures
Authors: Bonnefoy-Lucheri Aurélie
Published: December 2023

Historiettes can be defined as a collection of small memoirs in which Tallemant des Réaux reconstructed the reign of Henri IV and the regency of Anne d’Autriche. This collection of stories reshuffles the events reported in official Historiography, giving scandalous and private anecdotes of the more or less major figures of the time. The article reflects on the form of counterfactual history in a genre that is supposed to depict historical figures with a zest of funny, strange and picturesque details.
La tentation de l'uchronie dans Histoire du siège de Lisbonne, de José Saramago : une poétique du dédoublement
Authors: Graciete Besse Maria
Published: December 2023

In the aftermath of 1974 and the victory of democracy in Portugal, a number of Portuguese writers have deconstructed History and the representation of illustrious figures. Irony questions the legitimizing process of History. Amongst these writers, the article focusses on José Saramago who satirizes the past using metafictional elements. He creates new dynamics in Portuguese historical writing by undermining the conventional way so-called heroes are depicted.
