Automatic Wear Detection on Normalized Gears Made by Additive Manufacturing from Dense 3D Point Clouds
Authors: Rodríguez-Martín Manuel , Rodríguez-Gonzálvez Pablo , Aguado Leticia , Martinez-Pellitero Susana
Published: October 2023

A low-cost method based on macro-photogrammetric reconstruction is presented to automatically detect wear and other defects in small gears created with additive manufacturing. This novel approach is oriented to preventive and predictive maintenance of gears in order to avoid faults in machines and devices. The experimentation has been conducted using three defective gears produced in Nylon PA-12. First, a robotic platform and a systematic macro-photogrammetric data acquisition procedure were used to accomplish the 3D reconstruction and generate the dense point clouds. Subsequently, a comparison between the dense point cloud and the ideal solid CAD model of the normalized gear has been carried out. For this aim, the models have been alignment in the same spatial system. The computation of the distances between solid models and point clouds allows the automatic visualization of different types of defects even for defects that are not visible to the naked eye. This conclusion has been checked from a statistical point of view considering the discrepancies obtained in the comparison and their distribution.

Weather factors are key determinants in ecological disease management in sustainable agriculture, while judicious crop management systems deliver better control over rice diseases in tropical conditions. This study was designed to explore the effect of weather factors under different crop management systems and seasons on Rice Brown Leaf Spot (RBLS) disease incidences caused by Bipolaris oryzae in the tropical dry zone of Sri Lanka. The incidence of RBLS was measured under Conventional, Reduced, and Organic crop management systems commencing from the first occurrence of disease symptoms, at three-day sampling intervals in the tropical dry zone during wet (Maha) 2018/19 and 2019/20, and dry (Yala) 2019 and 2020 seasons. Secondary data on weather parameters were collected from the regional weather station. The RBLS incidences were highest in the wet season and were most abundant at the reproductive stage. The disease incidence dynamics over time were found to be similar among all the crop management systems in three seasons. The cumulative amount of rainfall seven days before the disease observation (RF7), the day-RH (DRH), and the maximum (TMAX48) and average temperature (TAVG48) that were recorded 48 h before the disease observations were found to be significantly correlated with the disease incidence of crop management systems in the wet season. DRH and minimum temperature (TMIN72) of 72 h before the disease observed in the wet season resulted in higher disease incidences. The RBLS disease can be managed concerning the crop management systems under high DRH and TMIN (20-25 ℃) in the wet season.

Malignant bowel obstruction caused by peritoneal carcinomatosis is a common complication that affects a large proportion of gastrointestinal and ovarian oncology patients and predicts poor longterm survival. The management strategy for these patients includes a variety of medical therapies and surgical options; however, how to choose the best treatment strategy remains a mystery. The purpose of this narrative review was to summarize the most recent evidence on multimodal malignant bowel obstruction treatment and determine whether or not progress had been made. We should work to establish consensus guidelines, where possible, to ensure that this unique patient group receives the appropriate treatment or compassionate care during this often terminal event.

Published: October 2023

Objective. We studied the prevalence and major predisposing factors of permanent atrial fibrillation (PAF) in a population of hypertensive post-menopausal (HPMW) women. Materials and Methods. We enrolled 125 consecutive HPMW with PAF, 125 HPMW in sinus rhythm were the control group (CG). Women with valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, WPW syndrome, left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction <45% and thyroid disorders were excluded. The mean age was similar: 53±3 years for women on PAF and 51±6 for women with sinus rhythm (P<0.45). All women who underwent M-B mode echocardiography, LV mass, function, and left atrial (LA) volume were assessed according to American Society of Echocardiography guidelines. Diabetes was assessed according to American Diabetes Association guidelines. Results. In a population of 8945 consecutive women, 4497 were hypertensive (50.2%) and 125 were on PAF (0.3%). We observed a highly significant difference between the two groups in relation to obesity: 31 (24.8%) in the AF-group and 15 (12%) in CG, Chi-squared 10, P<0.0016, OR 2.8, 95%; to increased LA volume: 37 (29.6%) in AF-group and 13 (10.4%) in CG, Chi-squared 14.4, P<0.0001, OR 3.62, 95%. No difference in diabetes: 30 (24%) in AFgroup and 28 (22.4%) in CG, Chi-squared 0.09, P<0.76, OR 1.09, 95%, and LV diastolic dysfunction (LVDD): 24 (19.2%) in AF-group and 20 (16%) in CG, Chi-squared 0.44, P<0.5, OR 1.25, 95%. In contrast to what was expected LV hypertrophy had a lower incidence of 59 (47.2%) in AF-group than in CG 84 (67.2%), Chi-squared 10.21, P<0.0014, OR 0.44, 95%. Conclusions. The prevalence of PAF in HPMW is not elevated, obesity and increased LA volume are strong determinants of PAF, not depending on age. LVDD, LV hypertrophy, and diabetes status seem not to play a relevant role as PAF determinants.

Authors: More Priyanka , Sachin Sakhare
Published: October 2023

With the increasing prevalence of the Internet of Things (IoT), there is a growing need for effective access control methods to secure IoT systems and data. Traditional access control models often prove inadequate when dealing with the specific challenges presented by IoT, characterized by a variety of heterogeneous devices, ever-changing network structures, and diverse contextual elements. Managing IoT devices effectively is a complex task in maintaining network security.This study introduces a context-driven approach for IoT Device Classification and Clustering, aiming to address the unique characteristics of IoT systems and the limitations of existing access control methods. The proposed context-based model utilizes contextual information such as device attributes, location, time, and communication patterns to dynamically establish clusters and cluster leaders. By incorporating contextual factors, the model provides a more accurate and adaptable clustering mechanism that aligns with the dynamic nature of IoT systems. Consequently, network administrators can configure dynamic access policies for these clusters.

Published: October 2023

A variety of new technologies and their related capabilities have entered daily life in the long run of the IoT technology. Various industrial sectors, including healthcare, facility management, agriculture, energy, and transportation, use IoT technologies.  Interconnected networks are starting to include IoT devices like wearables, commercial appliances, connected electronics, smart grids, smart automobiles, etc. These gadgets produce enormous amounts of data, which are gathered, examined, recorded, and kept on the networks. IoT security is challenging to secure since the devices employ basic processors and operating systems that may not be compatible with advanced security measures. The information and the devices that are used by organizations as a part of their network must be protected against hackers. In this paper, we discuss about overall review of IoT systems that contains the scope of IoT in the  future era, Some of the characteristics of IoT systems, layers including the working Architecture of IoT. We will also discuss some of the vulnerabilities and surface area attacks, application areas regarding IoT. Potential weaknesses in the IoT system could cause serious issues for enterprises. The majority of Internet of Things (IoT) devices have security flaws, including incorrect physical security systems, lack of lock-out mechanisms, weak encryption schemes, improper key management systems, and improper authentication mechanisms, or the use of default credentials. As in the evolving era, security issues are becoming a major problem so some of the security threats of IoT are also mentioned here. This paper also provides the methods for addressing the vulnerabilities to IoT systems' security.
Skin Disease Classification Using CNN Algorithms
Authors: Agarwal Raghav , Godavarthi Deepthi
Published: October 2023

INTRODUCTION: Dermatological disorders, particularly human skin diseases, have become more common in recent decades. Environmental factors, socioeconomic problems, a lack of a balanced diet, and other variables have all contributed to an increase in skin diseases in recent years. Skin diseases can cause psychological suffering in addition to physical injury, especially in people with scarred or disfigured faces.
OBJECTIVES: The use of artificial intelligence or computer-based technologies in the detection of face skin disorders has advanced dramatically over time. Even for highly experienced doctors and dermatologists, identifying skin disorders can be tricky since many skin diseases have a visual affinity with the surrounding skin and lesions.
METHODS: Today, the majority of skincare specialists rely on time-consuming, traditional methods to identify disorders. Even though several research have demonstrated promising results on the picture classification job, few studies compare well-known deep learning models with various metrics for categorizing human skin disorders.
RESULTS: This study examines and contrasts various skin illnesses in terms of cosmetics and common skin concerns. Our dataset includes over 25000 of the eight most common skin disorders. Convolutional neural networks have shown imaging performance that is comparable to or greater than that of humans. We used 11 different network algorithms to identify the illnesses in the sample and compared the results.
CONCLUSION: To adjust the format of incoming photographs, we do certain image pre-processing and image scaling for each model. ResNet152 beat other deep learning methods in terms of recall, accuracy, and precision on a test dataset of 1930 images.
Inclusions of $C^*$-algebras arising from fixed-point algebras
Authors: Echterhoff Siegfried , Rørdam Mikael
Published: October 2023

We examine inclusions of

C^*

-algebras of the form

A^H \subseteq A \rtimes_{r} G

, where

G

and

H

are groups acting on a unital simple

C^*

-algebra

A

by outer automorphisms and

H

is finite. It follows from a theorem of Izumi that

A^H \subseteq A

is

C^*

-irreducible, in the sense that all intermediate

C^*

-algebras are simple. We show that

A^H \subseteq A \rtimes_{r} G

is

C^*

-irreducible for all

G

and

H

as above if and only if

G

and

H

have trivial intersection in the outer automorphisms of

A

, and we give a Galois type classification of all intermediate

C^*

-algebras in the case when

H

is abelian and the two actions of

G

and

H

on

A

commute.
We illustrate these results with examples of outer group actions on the irrational rotation

C^*

-algebras. We exhibit, among other examples,

C^*

-irreducible inclusions of AF-algebras that have intermediate

C^*

-algebras that are not AF-algebras; in fact, the irrational rotation

C^*

-algebra appears as an intermediate

C^*

-algebra.

Intermittent preventive therapy during pregnancy (IPTp) with sulfadoxine–pyrimethamine (SP) is recommended in areas of moderate to high malaria transmission intensity. As a result of the increasing prevalence of SP resistance markers, IPTp-SP was withdrawn from Rwanda in 2008. Nonetheless, more recent findings suggest that SP may improve birthweight even in the face of parasite resistance, through alternative mechanisms that are independent of antimalarial effects. The prevalence of single nucleotide polymorphisms in Plasmodium falciparum dihydropteroate synthase (pfdhps) and dihydrofolate reductase (pfdhfr) genes associated with SP resistance among 148 pregnant women from 2016 to 2018 within Rwanda’s Southern Province (Huye and Kamonyi districts) was measured using a ligase detection reaction–fluorescent microsphere assay. The frequency of pfdhps K540E, A581G, and the quintuple (pfdhfr N51I + C59R + S108N/pfdhps A437G + K540E) and sextuple (pfdhfr N51I + C59R + S108N/pfdhps A437G + K540E + A581G) mutant genotypes was 90%, 38%, 75%, and 28%, respectively. No significant genotype difference was seen between the two districts, which are approximately 50 km apart. Observed agreements for matched peripheral to placental blood were reported and found to be 207 of 208 (99%) for pfdhfr and 239 of 260 (92%) for pfdhps. The peripheral blood sample did not miss any pfdhfr drug-resistant mutants or pfdhps except at the S436 loci. At this level of the sextuple mutant, the antimalarial efficacy of SP for preventing low birthweight is reduced, although overall SP still exerts a nonmalarial benefit during pregnancy. This study further reveals the need to intensify preventive measures to sustain malaria control in Rwanda to keep the overall incidence of malaria during pregnancy low.

Published: October 2023

The epidemiology of corneal ulcers in Vietnam has not been well characterized. In this report, we reviewed retrospectively the microbiological data of patients with a clinical diagnosis of corneal ulcer at the microbiology laboratory of Vietnam National Eye Hospital from January 1, 2010 to March 31, 2023. We observed a seasonal pattern for fungal and microsporidial keratitis, with an annual peak in November, and an inverse relationship between fungal keratitis and inclement weather. The November peak coincided with one of the major harvesting seasons in Vietnam. We also observed increasing numbers of microsporidial and Acanthamoeba keratitis cases in recent years. Knowledge of these trends are helpful in guiding empirical treatment of corneal infections and preventing corneal blindness.

The knowledge of forest populations dynamics after logging and under the events of silvicultural treatments is important to establish management and conservation strategies. We aimed to show results of structural changes of tree species populations (from seedlings to adult trees), during 27 years in an area where reduced impact logging and silvicultural treatments were performed. In 1985 timber of trees with DBH ≥ 60 cm was logged from 400 ha, considering three volume reduction intensities (15, 25, 35%). In 1994, thinning was applied considering individuals with DBH ≥ 15 cm, and four intensities of basal area reduction (0, 30, 50, 70%). Twelve statistical treatments were performed considering the thinning combined with harvest intensities. Trees, saplings, sticks and seedlings were monitored and measured in 40 permanent sample plots. The plots were assessed in 1984, 1986, 1994, 1996, 2004 and 2011. Statistical analyses were performed using generalized linear models. Our results show that forest structure was not altered significantly even in areas where the trees basal area reduction was higher. There was no significant influence on the establishment of the main species in the area and in dynamics of the remnant forest after logging.
Video Game Music and Cultural Dissemination
Authors: Li Fan , Song Liuyan
Published: October 2023

As the internationally one of the most-played multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, Honour of Kings (HoK) has created a unique cultural phenomenon apart from its gaming appeal. HoK weaves its aesthetically-pleasing game character, plot, scene, background, and music with Chinese traditional culture (CTC) elements. This contributes to popularise CTC across the world and Chinese music works, accordingly. Therefore, this article starts with the CTC elements and music works in HoK and explores the effect of Video Game Music (VGM) on cultural dissemination. Further, it explores the new ways and trends of traditional culture transmission. Lastly, this article comprehensively discusses the current problems and solutions of cultural and musical promulgation in games. It can be explained that the effort in terms of VGM composition would contribute to the HoK game develop better. These findings can also provide research ideas for developing VGM in Chinese style.
Crossing the Threshold: School Shooting as a “Ritual of Chiral Initiation”
Authors: Aliev Rastyam T.
Published: October 2023

The article delves into the phenomenon of school shootings, interpreting these as metaphorical representations of profound dysfunctions in cultural communication. The shootings are examined through the lens of the concept “Ritual of Chiral Initiation” introduced by the author. This concept portrays school shootings as inverted rituals in which traditional structures and values become reversed or distorted. The study leans on the post-structuralist tradition of deconstruction to find out why modern societies give rise to delinquent behaviors (like school shootings) and to comprehend their symbolic implications.

The goal of the research is to analyze school shootings as metaphoric representation of significant dysfunctions in cultural communication and to grasp their symbolic relevance in today’s society. School shootings are often the radical attempts of adolescents trying to find their footing in a society while facing the identity crisis. The results suggest that such aberrant behaviors stem from inverted rituals and upturned values.

School shootings signify the identity crisis in today’s society and can be considered as inverted rites of initiation. This article is meant for researchers interested in cultural communication challenges and societal delinquent behaviors.

Ensuring national security as an effectiveness criterion of law and order
Authors: Лапшин В.Е. , Свинин Е.В.
Published: October 2023

В статье правопорядок рассматривается как комплексная характеристика качественного состояния правовой системы в целом, ее пригодность служить инструментом обеспечения устойчивого социально- экономического развития общества. Акцентируется внимание на том, что сложившееся представление об эффективности правовых норм как соотношении цели и результата их действия имеет ограниченное значение, обусловленное игнорированием возникающих рисков и угроз как правообразующих факторов, влияющих на устойчивое развитие общественных отношений. В этой связи исследование эффективности правопорядка является актуальным и востребованным. Обращается внимание на то, что многообразие системы юридических и социальных показателей, относящихся не только к сфере действия норм, но и затрагивающих правоприменительный механизм, обусловливает необходимость использования категории «национальная безопасность». Отмечается, что национальная безопасность выступает в качестве наиболее общего интегративного показателя эффективности функционирования правопорядка, объединяющего систему показателей, ориентированных на максимальное удовлетворение национальных интересов и стратегических национальных приоритетов. В результате анализа понятия «эффективность правопорядка» выявлен ряд существенных признаков и сформулировано авторское определение.

The article considers law and order as a complex characteristic of the qualitative state of the legal system as a whole and its suitability to serve as a tool for ensuring sustainable socio-economic development of society. It draws attention to the fact that the current idea of the legal norm effectiveness as a correlation between the purpose and result of their action has limited significance, due to the neglect of emerging risks and threats as law-making factors affecting sustainable development of public relations. It substantiates the relevancy of the study of the effectiveness of law and order. It is highlighted that the diversity of the system of legal and social indicators relating not only to the scope of the norms, but also affecting the law enforcement mechanism, necessitates the use of the category “national security”. It is noted that national security serves as the most general integrative indicator of law and order effectiveness, combining a system of indicators focused on the maximum satisfaction of national interests and strategic national priorities. After analysis of the concept “effectiveness of law and order”, a number of essential features are identified and the author’s definition is formulated.

Legal and technical registration of information on the relevance of regulatory legal acts
Authors: Лапшин В.Е. , Шаханов В.В.
Published: October 2023

Актуальность нормативных правовых актов является важнейшим условием их использования в регулировании возникающих право- отношений. Практика отображения подобного рода информации хаотична, единые требования юридико-технического характера по данному вопросу отсутствуют, что осложняет поиск актуальной редакции нормативных правовых актов. Словосочетание «актуальная редакция» не гарантирует актуальность соответствующей версии нормативного правового акта, что составляет угрозу действующему правопорядку. Юридико-технические приемы внесения информации об актуальности нормативного правового акта нельзя считать устоявшимися. Существует объективная необходимость их уточнения. Авторы предлагают отказаться от практики применения выражений «новая редакция», «актуальная редакция», «редакция №…» и т. п. и ограничиться лишь указанием на дату редакции нормативного правового акта.

The relevance of regulatory legal acts is the most important condition for their use in the regulation of emerging legal relations. The practice of displaying this kind of information is chaotic, there are no uniform requirements of a legal and technical nature on this issue, which complicates the search for an up-to-date version of regulatory legal acts. The phrase “current edition” does not guarantee the relevance of the version of the regulatory legal act, which is a threat to the current law and order. Legal and technical techniques for introducing information about the relevance of a regulatory legal act cannot be considered well-established. There is an objective need to clarify them. The authors propose to refuse using expressions “new edition”, “current edition”, “edition No ”, etc. and to indicate only a revision date of the regulatory legal act.

Рассмотрен зарубежный опыт применения данного поощрительного института (США, КНР, Великобритания, Узбекистан). Даны предложения по усилению контроля за осужденными к пожизненному лишению свободы, освобожденными условно-досрочно от отбывания наказания, с учетом зарубежного опыта.

The article is devoted to the issues of improving the institution of conditional early release from serving a sentence in relation to those sentenced to life imprisonment in Russia. Statistical data on the dynamics of the use of this incentive institution in relation to convicts in comparison with the number of applications for parole filed over the past 22 years are given. It is proposed to exclude the possibility of conditional early release in relation to certain categories of persons sentenced to life imprisonment (convicted of crimes provided for in Part 5 of Article 131 and Part 3 of Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Foreign experience of using this incentive institute (USA, China, Great Britain, Uzbekistan) is considered. Proposals are made to strengthen control over those sentenced to life imprisonment, released on parole from serving their sentences, taking into account foreign experience.

Данная работа открывает серию статей, посвященных поиску условий или основных принципов и «маяков», на которые следует ориентироваться при разработке и реализации уголовно-правовых механизмов, направленных на обеспечение эффективной инновационной деятельности в нашей стране. В первой статье анализируется сущность инновационной деятельности. Отмечается, что в настоящее время данное понятие, отраженное в нормативно-правовых актах, является аморфным и неоднозначным, так как сконструировано с нарушением приемов и правил законодательной техники. Отмеченные недостатки в понимании сущности и содержания инновационной деятельности приводят к неудачам в правовом регулировании отмеченной сферы. В полной мере это относится и к уголовному законодательству, что проиллюстрировано на конкретных примерах.

his work opens a series of articles devoted to the search for conditions or basic principles and “beacons” that should be used in the development and implementation of criminal law mechanisms aimed at ensuring effective innovation in our country. The paper analyzes the essence of innovation activity. It is noted that at present this concept, reflected in normative legal acts, is amorphous and ambiguous, since it is constructed in violation of means and rules of legislative technique. The noted shortcomings in understanding the essence and content of innovative activity lead to failures in the legal regulation of this sphere. This fully applies to criminal legislation, which is illustrated by concrete examples.
Analysis of Hospital Emergency Department Performance Measurement with Balanced Scorecard
Authors: Melissa Hilda , Basabih Masyitoh
Published: October 2023

Emergency Department (IGD) is the face of a hospital (RS). Good hospital emergency room services will result in patient satisfaction and the community around the hospital, so that the hospital becomes an option as a health facility. The performance of a hospital emergency room needs to be assessed objectively so that continuous efforts can be made to improve services.
