Augment BERT with average pooling layer for Chinese summary generation
Authors: Zhao Shuai , You Fucheng , Chang Wen , Zhang Tianyu , Hu Man
Published: October 2021

The BERT pre-trained language model has achieved good results in various subtasks of natural language processing, but its performance in generating Chinese summaries is not ideal. The most intuitive reason is that the BERT model is based on character-level composition, while the Chinese language is mostly in the form of phrases. Directly fine-tuning the BERT model cannot achieve the expected effect. This paper proposes a novel summary generation model with BERT augmented by the pooling layer. In our model, we perform an average pooling operation on token embedding to improve the model’s ability to capture phrase-level semantic information. We use LCSTS and NLPCC2017 to verify our proposed method. Experimental data shows that the average pooling model’s introduction can effectively improve the generated summary quality. Furthermore, different data needs to be set with varying pooling kernel sizes to achieve the best results through comparative analysis. In addition, our proposed method has strong generalizability. It can be applied not only to the task of generating summaries, but also to other natural language processing tasks.

Published: October 2021

Relevance: The new pandemic crisis caused by the Covid19 virus has led to a global shortage of personal protective equipment including FFP2 masks necessary for the exercise of professionals in direct contact with positive patients.

Objective: 3D print a PLA mask similar to the FFP2 mask with the addition of an ULPA filter

Methods. The designed mask is based on the general morphology of the FFP2 standard. This is how we downloaded the prototype of the «LOWELL MAKES». We have adapted this prototype to our craniofacial dimensions on the «Meshmixer» software, to finally export the prototype in STL format to print it by fused deposition modeling (FDM) via the 3D printer «XYZ Junior 1.0» equipped with a PLA (polylactic acid) filament.

Results. The total duration of the printing of the full mask (the cover, the body of the mask, and the retentive filter grid) was around 4h30 min. Regarding the choice of the filter, we opted for two solutions, the first to cut an FFP2 mask and to use the parts obtained as being filters (doubled), the second being a commercial ULPA or HEPA filter. A ULPA (Ultra Low Penetration Air) filter can theoretically filter dust, pollen, and bacteria from the air with an efficiency of 99.999 % thanks to a size of 0.1 microns. Remember that the average size of the Covid-10 virus is around 0.1 µm and that the porosity of the FFP2 mask allows particles to be filtered with a diameter of around 0.6 µm at 94 %. In order to maximize the filtering effect while wearing this mask, we opted for the interposition of a ULPA filter covered by an FFP2 filter. We tested the tightness of this mask by checking for side leaks by maintaining a stabilized sheet on the outer cover by suction during inhalation. We have also added to the edges of the mask in contact with the face a peripheral silicone seal, polymerized on the face, to avoid any marks or scars after removal of this mask while increasing the comfort of the practitioner. The protocol that we chose by superimposing two filters (the first having a porosity of 0.6µm and the second of 0.1µm) allowed us to potentiate the filtration. This allowed the filter to be used for 40 hours. The total cost price of the mask is around 9 €.

Conclusions. The «open source» community makes it possible to popularize 3D printing while making it easier for any 3D printer owner to appropriate their protective equipment at a reduced price, however, intellectual property remains a concern, in particular for medical parts that cannot be procured promptly during a pandemic crisis similar to that caused by the Covid-19 virus.

Published: October 2021

Etiological patterns of uropathogens is different in different regions due to continuous evolution, of bacteria, antibiotics sensitivity patterns, misuse and overuse of antibiotics. Therefore, it is important to know the antibiotic susceptibility patterns for prescription of suitable antibiotic. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of uropathogens and their antimicrobial sensitivity pattern from Kohat region of Pakistan. In this study 100 samples were collected from both males and females of all ages in which 70 samples contained microbes. In 30 samples no microbial growth was recorded. The Percentage of positive culture from both male and female were 57% and 43% respectively Both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria were found in UTI but E.coli (34.21%) was predominant followed by K. pneumoniae (10.52%), P. aeruginosa (9.21%), K. oxytoca (6.57%), C. albicans (5.26%), E. faecium (5.26%), E. faecalis (3.94%), S. aureus (3.94%), E. cloacea (2.63%), C. freundii (2.63%), P. mirabalis (2.63%) and A. baumannii (1.31%). Many of the isolates showed resistance to commonly used antibiotics. The sensitivity percentage of different commonly used antibiotics against both Gram (+) and Gram(-) bacteria were Ampicillin 13%, Ceftriaxone 25%, Amikacin 77%, Gentamicin 41%, Augmentin 44.77%, Fosfomycin 64%, Cotrimoxazole 36%, Nitrofurantoin 68%, Ciprofloxacin 37%, Imipenem 78%, Meropenem 67%, Cefepime 25% and Tetracycline 40%. The most effective antibiotics against both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria were Fosfomycin, Imipenem, Meropenem Amikacin and Nitrofurantoin. In light of the findings of this study, it is strongly recommended to discover new antimicrobial compounds and evaluate the resistant pattern at genomic and proteomics level to discover the genes which are responsible for antibiotics resistant pattern.

Published: October 2021

Summary. Aim: To study the levels of redox-forming molecules generated in tumor, adipose tissue (AT), neutrophils and platelets of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) with normal body weight or obesity. Materials and Methods: 83 samples of tumor tissue and 83 samples of the AT taken at the distance of 5 cm from the tumor as well as 83 blood samples have been analyzed in the patients with CRC with metachronous lesions in liver. The comparison group consisted of 18 patients who were surgically treated for ulcer. The rates of free radical generation were measured by electron paramagnetic resonance. Results: Free radical generation rate in tumor tissue and AT increased and nitrogen oxide (NO) levels decreased in patients with body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m2 as compared to the patients with normal body weight (p < 0.05). The superoxide generation activity in neutrophils of CRC patients exceeded about 7-fold the values obtained in neutrophils from patients with ulcer while the NO levels produced by neutrophils of CRC patients decreased significantly (p < 0.01). The same trends held true for the platelets. Conclusions: In obese patients with CRC, superoxide-generating activity increases in cancer cells, AT, neutrophils and platelets. The obesity should be considered as the additional oncological risk representing the potent predictor for the events realized in obese patients such as oxidative stress, inflammation, insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction.
Kazakh borrowings in Orenburg Russian dialects
Authors:   Orenburg State Pedagogical University, Nikolaevna Bekasova Elena
Published: October 2021

The relevance of the study of dialects of territories of late settlement is determined by the peculiarities of their formation, functioning and preservation in the conditions of inter-dialect and inter-language contacts. In this regard, the Orenburg Russian dialects, which take shape in the unique linguistic situation of the interaction of different-time resettlement waves from the provinces of the European part of the Russian Empire with the Turkic and Fino-Ugric peoples for more than 250 years, remain insufficiently explored. However, the materials published in 2005-2019 based on the records of the 50-70s of the XX century allow us to consider various aspects of the study of resettlement dialect systems, among which the problem of Russian-Kazakh language contacts as the most significant in the linguistic and cultural plan stands out. The analysis of Kazakh borrowings made it possible to determine the thematic groups of borrowed vocabulary, identify the mechanisms for its entry and adaptation in Orenburg Russian dialects, determine the features of the relationship with native correspondences and reveal the potential opportunities realized in a genetically alien dialect system.

A comparison of the diet of urban and forest great tits in a Mediterranean habitat
Authors: Senar J. C. , Manzanilla A. , Mazzoni D
Published: October 2021

The low breeding performance and body condition of nestling passerine birds in urban environments has been attributed to the poor quality and low abundance of food in these settings. However, detailed data on prey provided by parents to their chicks in the urban habitat is scarce. Here we used video cameras set in nest boxes to compare the diet of urban and forest great tits Parus major when provisioning their chicks in a Mediterranean area. We additionally analysed brood size and fledgling success. Breeding success of urban great tits was lower than that of forest birds. Urban parents displayed a lower average hourly feeding rate per nestling than forest parents. Among the three prey item categories, the percentage of spiders did not vary according to habitat. However, the percentage of caterpillars delivered to the nest by great tit parents was higher in the forest than in the urban habitat while the percentage of ‘other’ prey showed a reverse pattern. ‘Other’ prey were mainly adult butterflies and wasps in the urban habitat. Our paper adds to the view that the low feeding rates and scarcity of caterpillars in urban environments may be the underlying cause constraining the growth of great tit nestlings in these areas.

Published: October 2021

The article presents the results of author's research in the field of the problem of creating entrepreneurial universities, which should play one of the most important roles in the process of ensuring public profitability. The importance of capitalization as a process of conversion of value added into capital is clarified and the content of capitalization in relation to the functioning of a new type of universities - entrepreneurial universities. Capitalization is a way of looking at the process of redefining additional parameters from the capital, but also from the industrial sector. It is noted that the products of intellectual capital are directly involved in capitalization, but subject to the implementation of innovative activities, the content of which corresponds to entrepreneurial activity. It is determined that in the context of suspicious changes, universities become middles of innovative activities, behavioral imperatives, especially innovative and educational culture, which relies on high standards of culture and ideals. The vision of researchers on the emergence of the model of entrepreneurial university is presented, the definition and features of the existence of these universities are given. Until then, it’s good for the rice to come from the universities of the past, it’s good for those who didn’t think it’s just for the first time, but it’s scientifically until the last time. The author's world of education is presented in the boundaries of this preliminaries. The establishment of educational universities allows for the prevention of capitalization as in objects of material (work) forms, as well as in informational and intellectual forms, including the number of programs, wines. as in the short-line period, so as to prevent the storage of information and intellectual facilities from the pre-built period (to be the case for "depositing" conditions). Emphasis is placed on the existence of problems of transformation of traditional universities into entrepreneurial universities, overcoming which should accelerate the process of creating innovative entrepreneurial universities, the purpose of which is to ensure capitalization in society.

The purpose of the article is to summarize the views on the current state of internal audit in Ukraine and identify general promising areas for its development. The evolution, current state and prospects of internal audit development in Ukraine are revealed. The history of internal audit is covered, the stages of development of internal audit in the world and in Ukraine are considered. It is determined that the development of internal audit in Ukraine takes place with the adoption of relevant legislation governing its implementation in a particular area. The current state of internal audit in Ukraine is characterized, the current legal framework for internal audit is analyzed. The level of legislative regulation of internal audit of enterprises of various spheres of activity is revealed. It was found that the establishment of an internal audit function at the legislative level is not mandatory for the private sector, while such companies have all the necessary legal framework that can be used in the process of implementing and conducting internal audit. Views on modern problematic aspects of internal audit development in Ukraine are generalized. It is determined that the most acute issues hindering the implementation of internal audit in enterprises are the lack of methodological and organizational support for internal audit, the low level of development of corporate governance culture, as well as the lack of qualified internal auditors. The actual directions of further improvement of the process of introduction of internal audit in the practice of domestic enterprises are formulated. The necessity of further improvement of normative-legal provision of internal audit regulation, development of methodical recommendations on organizational-technological schemes and procedures of internal audit and improvement of the system of professional training of specialists in internal audit is substantiated. It is concluded that the development of internal audit in Ukraine at the present stage is due to the need to understand internal audit as a potential tool to improve the efficiency of the enterprise, as well as the existing regulatory requirements. Prospects for the development of internal audit in Ukraine must have all the prerequisites to meet modern global trends.

Published: October 2021

The paper examines the telecommunications industry, its development and impact on economic growth in countries including Ukraine. The characteristics of mobile communication, as a segment of the telecommunications industry that is most actively progressing, both in the world as a whole and in Ukraine, are given. It’s examined a current state of the Ukrainian mobile communication market. Its importance for the national economy is reviewed. The Ukrainian mobile market has been studied; the changes that have taken place in recent years in the direction of global trends in the field of communications. Development trends that encourage mobile operators to develop their own platforms, introduce new products and services are considered. Examples of current developments and services of operators such as virtual mobile automatic telephone exchange, Big Data Scoring, Vodafone Analytics and others are given. The article pays special attention to Big Data processing and analysis technologies. Big data is defined as very large datasets that can be analyzed computationally to reveal patterns, trends, and associations – especially in connection with human behavior and interactions. A big data revolution has arrived with the growth of the Internet, wireless networks, smartphones, social media and other technology. These features of Big Data are the ability to use Data Mining. Data mining is a process used by companies to turn raw data into useful information. By using software to look for patterns in large batches of data, businesses can learn more about their customers to develop more effective marketing strategies, increase sales and decrease costs. Data mining depends on effective data collection, warehousing, and computer processing. Data mining processes are used to build machine learning models that power applications including search engine technology and website recommendation programs. Also describes how Big Data affects the retail industry, namely helping to optimize merchandising tactics, personalize customer service, increase advertising effectiveness, target offline shoppers (remarketing) and expand cross-selling. Also in the field of telecommunications, Big Data helps providers to automate and optimize the provision of their services. Thus, the introduction of Big Data technologies will allow Ukraine to become a more competitive country on the world market.

Authors: Dereza Viacheslav
Published: October 2021

The article discusses approaches to minimizing financial losses by diversifying financial risks, it is proposed to improve the mechanism for diversifying financial risks, which should consist of the following stages: 1) Formation by the financial and economic department of the subject (enterprise, bank, investment company, etc.) of the input data, depending on the type of activity, among which the most typical are: volumes and structure of credit resources, their price, borrowing terms, loan currency, volumes and structure of product exports and imports of goods, export and import currencies, duration of the production cycle, volumes and structure of securities portfolio, types of securities, profitability indicators, types and the level of expenses. 2) Determination of the types of financial risks faced by an economic entity, and its measurement for each type, as well as the level of losses suffered by an economic entity in previous periods, in order to assess the feasibility of diversifying financial risks. 3) Determination of the most effective diversification options for an economic entity by comparing the costs of implementing possible options and the resulting from diversification by reducing the level of risk. 4) Assessment of other options for minimizing losses from financial risks that the entity can apply and which can be grouped as follows: hedging risks, limiting and compensating risks. 5) Calculation of financial implications for an economic entity from the introduction of financial risk diversification To do this, it is necessary to compare the costs and the expected effect of diversification, that is, will the level of risk decrease, or what will be the maximum possible financial losses. Calculated on the basis of statistical data, the values of the coefficient of variation of deposit and lending rates, as well as the exchange rate of UAH to foreign currencies. A methodology for assessing the level of possible financial losses and the effectiveness of the process of diversifying financial risks is proposed. The introduction of a mechanism for diversifying financial risks will help reduce financial losses by economic entities, which in turn will improve the overall financial results of their activities.

Published: October 2021

Este estudio estima los trabajos que pueden ser plausiblemente hechos desde casa en México, utilizando la metodología propuesta por Dingel y Neiman (2020a) y la En-cuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo del inegi. La estimación muestra que en México 19.6 % de los trabajos se pueden realizar desde casa, con diferencias significa-tivas entre estados, tipo de ocupaciones e incluso sectores económicos. Un resultado adicional es que personas con más altos niveles de escolaridad tienen mayores posibi-lidades de realizar trabajo desde casa, y que además está correlacionado fuertemente con el pib per cápita y el índice de complejidad económica de los estados. Esto mues-tra que los empleos más vulnerables ante el contagio por covid-19 están en sectores primarios o actividades elementales, en empleos con bajos niveles de escolaridad, lo que acrecienta las diferencias estructurales en el mercado laboral mexicano.

A Sociolinguistic Perspective on L1 Attrition in First-Generation Immigrant Children
Authors: Palaiologou Lydia
Published: October 2021

This present review paper will be investigating the topic of first language (L1) attrition, primarily concentrating on how this process is realized in first-generation immigrant children, meaning children who either were born in a country different than the one their parents were born in or foreign-born children whose parents immigrated when that person was very young. This angle is particularly interesting as this L1 attrition is simultaneously co-occurring with second language (L2) acquisition and is connected to a multitude of sociolinguistic factors, the most important of which is the concept of sociolinguistic prestige as well as the concept of age-based speech communities and how the members of these communities influence one another's speech. The main goal is to gain more insight into how first language attrition research has taken into account such complex social matters as well as understanding the effects social/cognitive factors like these have on children who are being exposed to more than one language in their everyday life. To further the understanding of the social component of L1 attrition, this paper presents a comparison between two examples of language policy, in Romania and in the Netherlands, concerning multilingualism in society as well as in education.

Для здійснення автоматизованого управління бойовими порядками спільних авіаційних груп необхідно створення системи математичних моделей етапів функціонування бойового порядку, а також засобів реалізації цієї системи, включно з процедурами управління та інтеграції. Найбільш вдало така задача може бути розв’язана при застосуванні логіко-динамічних моделей та теорії логіко-динамічних систем.

Метою статті є створення банку моделей, як системи моделей математичного опису етапів функціонування бойового порядку спільної авіаційної групи, що становить основу математичної моделі бойового порядку спільної авіаційної групи пілотованої та безпілотної авіації.

Задача синтезу логіко-динамічних моделей полягає у розділенні вихідної моделі на сукупність структурних станів (режимів), причому систему у кожному структурному стані можна розглядати як самостійну. Моделювання кожного з станів полягає у об’єднанні ряду режимів, що характеризуються постійним значенням аеродинамічних характеристик пілотованих та безпілотних літальних апаратів залежно від значення функцій предикат змінних. Відповідно, модель виконання бойового завдання спільною авіаційною групою пілотованої та безпілотної авіації розбивається на ряд етапів. Зміст задачі дослідження передбачає використання повної нелінійної моделі динаміки польоту без розділення руху на повздовжній, боковий та вертикальний, при прийнятих припущеннях.

Визначення заданого відносного положення пілотованих та безпілотних літальних апаратів у бойовому порядку дозволить описати їх спільний відносний рух, що формує особливості системи управління бойовим порядком, а обрання системи координат відносно веденого надасть переваги на всіх подальших етапах розв’язання задачі управління.

Розвиток телекомунікаційних технологій, в тому числі й радіорелейних та тропосферних, актуалізує проблему підвищення стійкості мереж у зв’язку з постійним підвищенням вимог до якості їх функціонування. Особливої уваги на теперішній час, враховуючи досвід ООС, потребує необхідність вдосконалення методів упередження та нейтралізації негативних впливів на телекомунікаційні мережі, які в наш час постійно вдосконалюються та відбуваються в формах, яких раніше не існувало. Збільшується кількість випадків негативних впливів на телекомунікаційні мережі, які наносять шкоду не тільки фізичній структурі мережі, а й логічній, що, в свою чергу, вимагає розглядати питання оцінки підвищення живучості не тільки в аспекті структурної живучості, а й в аспекті продуктивності програмного управління різнорідним трафіком. Додатково необхідно приділити увагу безпеці функціонування з’єднань та передачі інформації по ним.
Метою даної статті є аналіз найбільш актуальних методів та методик забезпечення та  підвищення необхідного рівня живучості та звуження кола наукових досліджень для подальшої оптимізації або пошуку більш вдалої комбінації методів чи створення вдосконаленої методики для підвищення ефективності у вирішенні проблем пов’язаних з забезпеченням необхідного рівня живучості телекомунікаційних мереж та систем.
При дослідженнях живучості можливо використовувати ряд різних теоретичних підходів і, таким чином, застосування різних методів аналізу: теоретико-ігрових, імовірнісних, детермінованих, графо-аналітичних. Імовірнісний і детермінований підходи є найбільш розробленими для технічних цілей,  а тому є перспективними для вдосконалення та оптимізації.

Authors: Rosidi Mohd Harifadilah
Published: October 2021

Social media plays an important role in the spread of Islam around the world today and has been recognized for its use in the Islamic world. However, the use of social media in disseminating fatwas is still not widespread. Thus, this study aims to highlight previous studies related to the use of social media in the dissemination of fatwas and its impact on the acceptance of fatwas among the community. The results show that the use of social media in disseminating fatwa information and explanation of fatwas can increase the acceptance of fatwas among the Malaysian Muslim community. At the end of the study, the researchers suggested that more empirical studies could be done to confirm the relationship between the use of social media and the acceptance of fatwas among the Malaysian Muslim community

Dentistry is a client dependent field. Other than the dentist’s skills, the dentist’s appearance has been observed to affect the patient’s perception of the clinician. This research was conducted to assess patient’s perception of the dentist’s appearance based on the dentist’s attire, gender and age. A total number of 492 Malay respondents were involved in this study. A set of questionnaires was randomly distributed via google forms. This questionnaire consisted of three sections, including socio-demographic details of the respondents, patient’s perception towards dentist’s attire and patient’s perception towards dentist’s gender and age. The result showed that respondents consisted of 78% female and 22% male. The highest percentage of participants was in the age group of 18-30 (85.6%), while the lowest percentage of respondents came from the age group of 49-60 (5.3%).  The majority of respondents (51%) preferred a dentist who wears a white coat followed by a dentist in scrub (38.2%) and a dentist dressed in formal attires (9.3%). Only 1.4% of respondents selected a dentist who wears casual attire. Participants also prefer dentist in the age group of 41-60 years old, while participants had no preference toward dentist’s gender. A final open-ended question showed respondents also preferred to see dentists with acceptable dental appearance, good behaviour and established qualification. In conclusion, a dentist’s appearance is important to secure a promising interpretation of the patient towards the dentist.

The study investigates the effect of the Covid-19 on the volatility of the technology and healthcare sector stock index in Malaysia. The two sectors pose considerable attention during the pandemic due to the increase in demand for healthcare products and digital services. The volatilities are estimated using the GARCH model for the period before and after the implementation of the nationwide movement order control using daily data from September 2019 to September 2020. The finding shows that the Covid-19 pandemic caused a volatility jump for the technology sector index in March 2020 but subsided afterward with estimated conditional volatility revert to normal in the middle of April 2020. However, during the high uncertainty period, the healthcare sector shows a steady increase in volatility beginning in March 2020 till the end of September 2020. The study confirms that there is a significant difference in the volatility of healthcare and technology sectors before and during the Covid-19 outbreak. The outbreak has a significant impact on increasing the volatilities for both sectors but is impacted in different magnitude.

As COVID-19 hits the world shockingly, most nations worldwide have agreed to put educational institutions temporarily close. However, education has not stopped, but to go fully online as schools and universities could provide remote education. In this case, teachers have been struggling to adapt to the new norm to stop disease transmission. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the impact of Online Teaching and Learning (OTL) on teachers during COVID-19. The questionnaire was distributed randomly online among 320 teachers in Malaysia. SPSS has been used to analyse the completed questionnaire to obtain descriptive and inferential statistics. Three variables that have been used in this study were effectiveness, challenges, and school reopening using Cronbach’s alpha, hypothesis testing, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression. This study has shown that most teachers were affected by using online as a new method of teaching. A negative correlation between effectiveness and challenges has implied that increasing challenges would decrease online teaching effectiveness. Besides, many of the components show a significant difference in the variables in terms of socio-demographic profiles. The findings obtained would help the higher administration tackle challenges the teachers face and know the effectiveness of online teaching and learning.
Characterization of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) as Antimicrobial Biocomposite Film: A Review
Authors: Adriana Yazik  , Tukiran Nur Azira
Published: October 2021

Packaging is a critical process in the food industry because it is used to prevent spoilage, extend shelf-life, and provide an attractive presentation of the food product. Plastic packaging is used all over the world, and its production is increasing year after year. It comes in a variety of colours and designs. However, it has caused serious environmental problems, particularly to the ocean that has become a place for discarded plastic packaging. To address this issue, biodegradable packaging was developed to replace the use of plastic packaging because it helps to reduce environmental impact and waste management costs. Biodegradable packaging is also known as environmentally friendly packaging because it can be degraded into carbon dioxide, water, inorganic compounds, and biomass by microorganisms, algae, fungi, as well as enzyme catalysts. Biodegradable biocomposite film such as starch, cellulose, chitosan, and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is required to produce biodegradable packaging. Therefore, this paper aims to characterize PVA as a biocomposite film in biodegradable packaging. PVA has excellent properties to form films, as well as biodegradable, abundant in the environment, and cost-effective. However, it has some limitations in terms of thickness and mechanical properties; thus, the incorporation of PVA with essential oils and fiber is required to improve its mechanical properties, thickness, and provide antimicrobial properties to the packaging.
