End-to-End Automated Lane-Change Maneuvering Considering Driving Style Using a Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient Algorithm
Authors: Hu Hongyu , Lu Ziyang , Wang Qi , Zheng Chengyuan
Published: September 2020

Changing lanes while driving requires coordinating the lateral and longitudinal controls of a vehicle, considering its running state and the surrounding environment. Although the existing rule-based automated lane-changing method is simple, it is unsuitable for unpredictable scenarios encountered in practice. Therefore, using a deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) algorithm, we propose an end-to-end method for automated lane changing based on lidar data. The distance state information of the lane boundary and the surrounding vehicles obtained by the agent in a simulation environment is denoted as the state space for an automated lane-change problem based on reinforcement learning. The steering wheel angle and longitudinal acceleration are used as the action space, and both the state and action spaces are continuous. In terms of the reward function, avoiding collision and setting different expected lane-changing distances that represent different driving styles are considered for security, and the angular velocity of the steering wheel and jerk are considered for comfort. The minimum speed limit for lane changing and the control of the agent for a quick lane change are considered for efficiency. For a one-way two-lane road, a visual simulation environment scene is constructed using Pyglet. By comparing the lane-changing process tracks of two driving styles in a simplified traffic flow scene, we study the influence of driving style on the lane-changing process and lane-changing time. Through the training and adjustment of the combined lateral and longitudinal control of autonomous vehicles with different driving styles in complex traffic scenes, the vehicles could complete a series of driving tasks while considering driving-style differences. The experimental results show that autonomous vehicles can reflect the differences in the driving styles at the time of lane change at the same speed. Under the combined lateral and longitudinal control, the autonomous vehicles exhibit good robustness to different speeds and traffic density in different road sections. Thus, autonomous vehicles trained using the proposed method can learn an automated lane-changing policy while considering safety, comfort, and efficiency.
The Significance of IoT Technology in Improving Logistical Processes and Enhancing Competitiveness: A Case Study on the World’s and Slovakia’s Wood-Processing Enterprises
Authors: Šulyová Dominika , Koman Gabriel
Published: September 2020

The wood-processing industry currently does not sufficiently use modern technologies, unlike the automotive sector. The primary motive for writing this article was in cooperation with a Slovak wood processing company, which wanted to improve its logistics processes and increase competitiveness in the wood processing sector through the implementation of new technologies. The aim of this article was to identify the positives and limitations of the implementation of Internet of Things (IoT) technology into the wood processing industry, based on a secondary analysis of case studies and the best practice of American wood processing companies such as West Fraser Timber in Canada, and Weyerhaeuser in the USA. The selection of case studies was conditional on criteria of time relevance, size of the sawmills, and production volume in m3. These conditional criteria reflected the conditions for the introduction of similar concepts for wood-processing enterprises in Slovakia. The implementation of the IoT can reduce operating costs by up to 20%, increase added value for customers, and collect real-time data that can serve as the basis for support of management and decision-making at the operational, tactical, and strategic levels. In addition to the secondary analysis, methods of comparison of global wood processing companies, synthesis of knowledge, and summarization of positives and limitations of IoT implementation or deduction were used to reach our conclusions. The results were used as the basis for the design of a general model for the implementation of IoT technology for Slovak wood processing enterprises. This model may represent best practice for the selected locality and industry. The implications and verification of the designed model in practice will form part of other research activities, already underway in the form of a primary survey.

Published: September 2020

Endolysins are phage-encoded enzymes implicated in the breaching of the bacterial cell wall at the end of the viral cycle. This study focuses on the endolysins of Deep-Blue (PlyB221) and Deep-Purple (PlyP32), two phages preying on the Bacillus cereus group. Both enzymes exhibit a typical modular organization with an enzymatically active domain (EAD) located in the N-terminal and a cell wall binding domain (CBD) in the C-terminal part of the protein. In silico analysis indicated that the EAD domains of PlyB221 and PlyP32 are endowed with peptidase and muramidase activities, respectively, whereas in both proteins SH3 domains are involved in the CBD. To evaluate their antimicrobial properties and binding specificity, both endolysins were expressed and purified. PlyB221 and PlyP32 efficiently recognized and lysed all the tested strains from the B. cereus group. Biochemical characterization showed that PlyB221 activity was stable under a wide range of pHs (5–9), NaCl concentrations (up to 200 mM), and temperature treatments (up to 50 °C). Although PlyP32 activity was less stable than that of PlyB221, the endolysin displayed high activity at pH 6–7, NaCl concentration up to 100 mM and the temperature treatment up to 45 °C. Overall, PlyB221 and PlyP32 display suitable characteristics for the development of biocontrol and detection tools.
A Comprehensive Evaluation Model of Regional Water Resource Carrying Capacity: Model Development and a Case Study in Baoding, China
Authors: Mou Siyu , Yan Jingjing , Sha Jinghua , Deng Shen , Gao Zhenxing , Ke Wenlan , Li Shule
Published: September 2020

Scientific water resource carrying capacity (WRCC) evaluations are necessary for providing guidance for the sustainable utilization of water resources. Based on the driving-pressure-state-impact-response feedback loop, this paper selects 21 indicators under five dimensions to construct a regional WRCC comprehensive evaluation framework. The projection pursuit clustering (PPC) method is implemented with the matter-element extension (MEE) model to overcome the limitations of subjective deviation and indicator attribute incompatibility in traditional comprehensive assessment methods affecting the accuracy of evaluations. The application of the integrated evaluation model is demonstrated in Baoding city in the Jing-Jin-Ji area from 2010 to 2017. The results indicate that the economic water consumption intensity is the most influential factor that impacts the WRCC change in Baoding, and the pressure subsystem and response subsystem are dominant in the entire system. The WRCC in Baoding significantly improved between 2010 and 2017 from a grade V extremely unsafe state to a grade III critical state. Natural water shortages and large population scales are the main negative factors during this period; however, the existing measures are still insufficient to achieve an optimal WRCC status. Considering the future population and industry inflow, additional actions must be proposed to maintain and promote harmonious conditions.
Supporting patients with female genital mutilation in primary care: a qualitative study exploring the perspectives of GPs’ working in England
Authors: Dixon Sharon , Hinton Lisa , Ziebland Sue
Published: September 2020

Background

Female genital mutilation (FGM) includes all procedures that intentionally harm or alter female genitalia for non-medical reasons. In 2015, reporting duties were introduced, applicable to GPs working in England including a mandatory reporting duty and FGM Enhanced Dataset. Our patient and public involvement work identified the exploration of potential impacts of these duties as a research priority.

Aim

To explore the perspectives of GPs working in England on potential challenges and resource needs when supporting women and families affected by FGM.

Design and setting

Qualitative study with GPs working in English primary care.

Method

Semi-structured interviews focused around a fictional scenario of managing FGM in primary care. The authors spoke to 17 GPs from five English cities, including those who saw women who have experienced FGM often, rarely, or never. Interviews were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim for thematic analysis. Lipsky’s theory of street-level bureaucracy was drawn on to support analysis.

Results

Managing women with FGM was experienced as complex. Challenges included knowing how and when to speak about FGM, balancing care of women and their family’s potential care and safeguarding needs, and managing the mandated reporting and recording requirements. GPs described strategies to manage these tensions that helped them balance maintaining patient–doctor relationships with reporting requirements. This was facilitated by access to FGM holistic services.

Conclusion

FGM reporting requirements complicate consultations. The potential consequences on trust between women affected by FGM and their GP are clear. The tensions that GPs experience in supporting women affected by FGM can be understood through the theoretical lens of street-level bureaucracy. This is likely to be relevant to other areas of proposed mandated reporting.

Natural Enemies and the Maintenance of Tropical Tree Diversity: Recent Insights and Implications for the Future of Biodiversity in a Changing World
Authors: Comita Liza S. , Stump Simon M.
Published: September 2020

Over the past five decades, many studies have examined the Janzen-Connell hypothesis, which posits that host-specific natural enemies, such as insect herbivores and fungal pathogens, promote plant species coexistence by providing a recruitment advantage to rare plant species. Recently, researchers have been exploring new and exciting angles on plant-enemy interactions that have yielded novel insights into this long-standing hypothesis. Here, we highlight some empirical advances in our understanding of plant-enemy interactions in tropical forests, including improved understanding of variation in plant species’ susceptibility to enemy effects, as well as insect and pathogen host ranges. We then review recent advances in related ecological theory. These theoretical studies have confirmed that specialist natural enemies can promote tree diversity. However, they have also shown that the impact of natural enemies may be weakened, or that natural enemies could even cause species exclusion, depending on enemy host range, the spatial extent of enemy effects, and variation among plant species in seed dispersal or enemy susceptibility. Finally, we end by discussing how human impacts on tropical forests, such as fragmentation, hunting, and climate change, may alter the plant-enemy interactions that contribute to tropical forest diversity.

Published: September 2020

The diagnosis of morphological characteristics is an integral part of the entire training process in sports. This study aimed to determine the influence of morphological characteristics on the ball's speed of movement after the shoot from a spot and movement in handball. The sample included 36 female handball players aged 14.33 years. The predictor set consisted of 10 morphological variables. In comparison, the three variables constituted the criterion variables by which the ball's speed of movement was determined after different ways of shooting. Using regression analysis, it was found that the predictor set of variables explains about 70% of the variance for all three criterion variables. Individually, a statistically significant and positive influence on the speed of movement of the ball after the shot was recorded at the height and weight of the body, while a negative effect was observed for the variables; arm length, leg length and skin fold on the abdomen. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that morphological characteristics significantly influence the speed of movement of the ball after a shot in the handball, which can significantly contribute to the selection of handball players, as well as in establishing the tactics of handball, especially in situations where one shot decides the match. Also, the obtained results indicate the necessity of considering the age characteristics of the female respondents, that is, the need to adjust the training process to the period of intensive growth and development.
Quo Vadis Penentuan Kaidah Hukum bagi Sengketa Pegawai Negeri Sipil

Published: September 2020

Indonesia pada dasarnya memang merupakan negara hukum. Penegakan hukum dalam perkara-perkara sengketa Tata Usaha Negara juga harus berlandaskan hukum. Akan tetapi dalam suatu perkara tertentu terdapat adanya perbenturan antar kompetensi di dalam sistem peradilan dan sistem hukum di Indonesia. Salah satunya adalah dalam perkara nomor 533/K/TUN/2017 di mana melibatkan unsur pidana dan unsur tata usaha negara. Kesalahan (schuld) dari terpidana menyebabkan aparatur sipil negara terkena pemecatan. Prosedur pemecatan yang kurang tepat menjadi unsur keberatan dalam pemecatan dalam sengketa tata usaha negara ini sekalipun unsur kesalahan (pidana) secara jelas terbukti. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis dasar penentuan kaidah dalam sistem peradilan. Penentuan kaidah memerlukan analisis mendalam terhadap filsafat hukum.  Melalui metode penelitian yuridis-normatif maka akan dijelaskan pemilihan atau dasar argumen Mahkamah Agung lebih menekankan aspek substantif daripada formil di dalam menyelesaikan perkara ini. Kaidah hukum substantif lebih menjadi landasan lebih tinggi dari kaidah hukum formil dan dipertegas kembali dalam SEMA Nomor 1 Tahun 2017. Melalui teori tiga nilai dasar Gustav dapat diketahui bahwa pemilihan kaidah substansi ini memiliki pertimbangan aspek keadilan (filosofis) dengan memperhatikan peristiwa konkret (sosio-empiris) sehingga bermanfaat bagi negara dan masyarakat.

Entre o ocaso e a luz: o simbolismo em Pernambuco através da poética de Agripino da Silva
Authors: Andrade Fabio Cavalcante
Published: September 2020

O Simbolismo foi uma estética fundamental para o desenvolvimento da literatura moderna. Entretanto, desde a França do final do século XIX, onde se originou o movimento simbolista, até os seus desdobramentos em vários países ocidentais; sofreu ataques de uma crítica orientada por valores envelhecidos diante de suas propostas inovadoras. Atualmente, tem-se uma visão mais clara da importância do movimento, inclusive no Brasil onde se desenvolveu todo um esforço de reinterpretação das obras simbolistas, e mais recentemente a pesquisa e o estudo de seus desdobramentos regionais. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a poesia simbolista de Agripino da Silva, poeta pernambucano e integrante do corpo editorial da revista Heliópolis, periódico responsável por difundir a estética simbolista em Pernambuco. A poesia de Agripino da Silva, além de dialogar profundamente com o Simbolismo, constitui-se como dicção particular entre os companheiros de geração, enfatizando o caráter sensível de uma poética voltada para a linguagem das coisas, da cor e da luz, em composições originais que implodem o caráter convencional da poesia lírica.

Pediatric Population was categorized into 3 age groups – 0-2 years, 2-12 years and 12-16 years. Male to Female ratio was 2.4:1 in our study with most cases being of Acute Leukemias (95.4%). On further evaluation, ALL had highest numbers with 37 cases (57.0 %) followed by Acute Leukemia and AML with 14 (21.52%) & 10 (15.38%) cases respectively. The highest number of cases were seen in 2-12 years age group (n=49, 75.4%) implying that children of such age group presenting with signs and symptoms of HMs must be thoroughly evaluated for early diagnosis and treatment.
SUICIDE RELATED RISK FACTORS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Authors: Lingeswaran Anand
Published: September 2020

In India, media and press report frequent suicidal death in the context of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Apart from known sociodemographic, psychological and mental health disorder related risk factors of suicide, a unique, different set of reasons seem to be noted among suicides during this pandemic. Notably, fear of being infected and infecting dear ones, lack of understanding about the disease, fear of isolation, distress from lockdown, boredom from excess time with self, uncertainty of cure, despair of being locked at home and socially isolated, all together compound emergence of preexisting new onset depression, panic, post-traumatic stress, psychoses and substance use. Complicated economic, social, and political instability due lockdown has worsened vulnerability to suicidal behaviours among general population and healthcare workers. Although the long-term evolution of the course of suicide and covid-19 disease is unpredictable, the first few months have identified few unique risk factors and research must work on specific tailored strategies that address these novel risk factors are needed to mitigate suicide now.
