В наследии Исаакяна мемуары имеют ценное литературно-историческое значение. Они отличаются как объемом, так и жанровым разнообразием, охватывая практически все виды мемуарной литературы: дневник, записная книжка, литературный портрет. Особое место в своем творчестве Исаакян отводил мемуарным очеркам, объединив литературные портреты, созданные в разные годы и по разным по- водам, в единую серию «Из моих воспоминаний», которые еще при жизни автора были изданы отдельной книгой (Ереван, 1946 г. и Бейрут, 1955 г.). Классикам армянской культуры, своим современникам Исаакян посвящал прекрасные литературные портреты и воспоминания, глубокие в плане психо- логического анализа, художественно тонкие. В частности, в серии выделяются портреты Гевонда Алишана и Хримяна Айрика, пожалуй, самых ярких деятелей армянской действительности конца XIX века. И в «Дневниках», где мало событий и персонажей, Исаакян, молчаливо минуя многие связи, знакомства и встречи, с бесконечной теплотой и сыновним благоговением говорит только об этих двух своих великих современниках, оживляя два сокровенных лика: Гевонд Алишан и Мкртыч Хримян — Святой и Патриарх.
In Avetik Isahakyan’s legacy, memoirs have a valuable literary and historical significance. They are characterized by both volume and genre diversity, covering almost all types of memoir literature: diary, pocket book, and portrait memoir. Isahakyan gave a special place in his work to memoir essays, combining literary portraits created in different years and on different occasions into a single series entitled «From My Memoirs», which were published in a separate book during his lifetime (Yerevan, 1946 and Beirut, 1955). Isahakyan dedicated to the classics of Armenian culture and his contemporaries beautiful and artistically subtle literary portraits and memoirs, deep in terms of psychological analysis. In particular, the portraits of Ghevond Alishan and Khrimyan Hayrik, perhaps the most vivid figures of the Armenian reality of the late 19th century, stand out in the series. And in «Memoirs», where there are few events and characters, Isahakyan, silently bypassing many connections, acquaintances, meetings, speaks only about these two great contemporaries of his with infinite warmth and filial reverence, bringing to life two dear figures for us with these hints: Saint Ghevond Alishan and Patriarch Mkrtich Khrimyan.

Эпос «Сасна Црер» — это солнцепоклонническая система, герои которого являются воплощением солнечного мира. Действие эпоса в основном происходило в эпоху культа Митры. Два его героя, Большой и Малый Мгер, генеалогически связаны с богом Митрой. Идеалы Малого Мгера, выходящего из пещеры, восходят к идеологии, связанной со вторым пришествием Митры. Защита огня и воды начинается с первой ветви, в основе которой лежит миф о близнецах. Санасар и Багдасар — восходящее солнце, Большой Мгер и Давид — высшая точка, Малый Мгер — заходящее солнце. Герой последней ветви эпоса уединяется в Агравакаре (Вороний Камень). Ворон — символ солнца в мифологии. Это тотем — прародитель племени. Значит Малый Мгер, после выхода из пещеры, должен перейти в первозданный период мира.
The “Daredevils of Sassoun” epic is a system of sun worship, the heroes of which are the embodiment of the sun myth. The epic was primarily created during the epoch of the cult of Mithras. Its two heroes — Lion (Great) Mher and Little Mher are in genealogical associations with the god Mithra. Ideals (visions) of Little Mher’s getting out of a crag (rock) were derived from the ideology associated with the second coming of Mithra. The worship of fire and water originates from the first branch, the basis of which is the Legend of the Twins. Sanasar and Baghdasar symbolize the ascending sun, Lion Mher and David — the zenith, and Little Mher - the descending sun. The hero of the last branch of the epic secludes himself in the Raven’s Rock (Agravakar). The Raven is the symbol of the sun in mythology. It is the totem, the progenitor of the tribe. Hence, before coming out, Little Mher shall return to the pre-creation period of the world.

Христианство, будучи зарожденным в Израиле, ipso facto являлось активным носителем многих обрядов и религиозных верований Иудаизма. Таким образом, праздник Сретения Господня, относящийся к циклу детства Христа, включает в себя два важнейших Моисеевских предписаний: Закон очищения и Закон искупления первенцев. В данной статье предпринята попытка в краткой форме пролить свет на законодательные, литургические, исторические, а также толковательные особенности вышеупомянутых законов. Более того, консолидированное повествование евангелиста Луки о празднике дает основание предположить, что христианство изначально придало существенно новый смысл и религиозное содержание этим Моисеевым обрядам․
Christianity, being originated in Israel, was ipso facto an active carrier of many rituals and religious beliefs of Judaism. As a matter of fact, the feast of the Presentation of the Lord to the temple, a part of the corpus of Christ’s childhood, comprises two of the most important Mosaic commands: the Law of Purification and the Law of Redemption of the Firstborn. This article attempts to briefly shed light on the legislative, liturgical, historical, as well as exegetic peculiarities of the above-mentioned laws. Moreover, the Evangelist Luke’s consolidated narrative of the feast suggests that Christianity from the very beginning gave a substantially new meaning and religious content to these Mosaic rites.

Published: October 2024

This paper proposes a design for a Dolph-Tschebyscheff-weighted microstrip antenna array using a deep learning application. For this purpose, a multilayer perceptron and a deep learning model, both created using the same data set generated by a genetic algorithm, were compared. The antenna array population is initially generated randomly and then optimised with a genetic algorithm. The data produced by this model becomes a data set used for training in the deep learning application. The dimensions and specifications of the antenna array are obtained from this application, ensuring precision and optimisation in the design process. A new microstrip antenna array structure is employed for the proposed method, taking advantage of this design technique. The Dolph-Tschebyscheff weights are applied to achieve better characteristics for the microstrip antenna array, thus obtaining low side lobe levels, which are crucial for enhancing signal clarity and reducing interference. The results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm significantly improves the specifications of the structure. This improvement highlights the potential for integrating deep learning with traditional optimisation algorithms for advanced antenna design.

Published: October 2024

: Liver cancer and cirrhosis caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV) remain significant global health challenges due to the virus's high prevalence and contagious nature. Hepatitis B virus can be transmitted through various means, leading to mild or severe liver disease. Although an effective prophylactic vaccine is available, it offers limited benefits for those already chronically infected. Current treatments often fail to consistently eliminate the virus and can cause severe adverse effects. In response to these challenges, researchers have begun exploring microRNAs (miRNAs) as novel therapeutic targets. Studying miRNA-virus interactions presents a promising opportunity to identify potential therapeutic targets. By manipulating host miRNAs, researchers aim to enhance antiviral defenses, restore cellular balance, and prevent viral replication. The text concludes by highlighting the potential for personalized medicine in Hepatitis B treatment, guided by individual miRNA profiles. Numerous studies have been conducted to understand how different miRNAs inhibit HBV replication, paving the way for the development of innovative and effective therapeutic strategies.
Identification of Customer Through Voice Biometric System in Call Centres

Published: October 2024

In recent times, there has been a growing emphasis on adjusting communication strategies to foster strong customer relationships. This shift is driven by intensified competition, market maturation, and swift advancements in business technology. Consequently, companies have established call centers to efficiently handle customer support and fulfil customer inquiries. A pivotal aspect of enhancing service quality within these call centers involves accurately identifying customers during their interactions. The primary objective of this study is to introduce a methodology for identifying customers within call centers by analyzing their voice characteristics. Voice authentication (VA) has gained prominence in critical security operations, including banking transactions and conversations within call centers. The susceptibility of automatic speaker verification systems (ASVs) to deceptive spoofing attacks has prompted the development of countermeasures (CMs). These countermeasures are designed to differentiate between authentic and fabricated speech. ASVs and CMs collectively constitute contemporary VA systems, positioned as robust access control mechanisms. To achieve this goal, various customer identification systems within call centers have been examined, along with an analysis of audio signal attributes. Ultimately, the manuscript presents a novel approach to customer identification through voice biometrics. Notably, this method excels in recognizing customers even when provided with limited voice data. Empirical findings demonstrate that the suggested speaker identity confirmation method outperforms alternative techniques utilizing different algorithms, exhibiting a higher recognition rate. The present research work is based on two important perspectives of the call centres: a. call center agents experience and b. customer experience. The data collected separately from customers and agents for understanding the effective usage of voice biometric system in call centres. The data represented and satisfies the effectiveness of voice biometric system from both the perspectives. From the data it is also cleared that, the implementation of voice biometric system in call centres still have long way to go but will be a major technological change for the industries worldwide.
IBOA: Cost-aware Task Scheduling Model for Integrated Cloud-fog Environments
Authors:   SCOPE, VIT-AP University, Amaravathi, A.P., India, Medishetti Santhosh Kumar , Karri Ganesh Reddy , Donthi Rakesh Kumar
Published: October 2024

Scheduling is an NP-hard problem, and metaheuristic algorithms are often used to find approximate solutions within a feasible time frame. Existing metaheuristic algorithms, such as ACO, PSO, and BOA address this problem either in cloud or fog environments. However, when these environments are combined into a hybrid cloud-fog environment, these algorithms become inefficient due to inadequate handling of local and global search strategies. This inefficiency leads to suboptimal scheduling across the cloud-fog environment because the algorithms fail to adapt effectively to the combined challenges of both environments. In our proposed Improved Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (IBOA), we enhance adaptability by dynamically updating the computation cost, communication cost, and total cost, effectively balancing both local and global search strategies. This dynamic adaptation allows the algorithm to select the best resources for executing tasks in both cloud and fog environments. We implemented our proposed approach in the CloudSim simulator and compared it with traditional algorithms such as ACO, PSO, and BOA. The results demonstrate that IBOA offers significant reductions in total cost, communication cost, and computation cost by 19.65%, 18.28%, and 25.41%, respectively, making it a promising solution for real-world cloud-fog computing (CFC) applications.

Published: October 2024

The effects of ongoing climate change have caused a poleward shift in the distribution of species due to the rapidly rising water temperatures. This calls for an immediate need to assess and document the extent of climate change-driven animal migrations occurring in the Arctic waters. However, the extreme climatic conditions and the remoteness of the region makes biomonitoring tedious in the Arctic ecosystem. The present study puts forward a deep learning-based analysis of a large underwater video dataset that was captured from the Arctic region. The dataset was acquired using underwater cameras mounted on custom-made stainless-steel frames. The video footages were collected over a period of 26 days from the Kongsfjorden- Krossfjorden twin Arctic fjords in Svalbard, Norway. The collected data sets were used to train YOLO-based object detection framework (You Only Look Once) for an automated detection of the organisms. The YOLO model employed for the study was found to be very efficient in classifying the underwater images captured from the region. The object detection framework could detect images of Comb jelly, Echinoderm, Sea Anemone and Ulke (Shorthorn sculpin) from the underwater images. The model attained a superior value of Mean Average Precision (mAP), precision, and recall of 99.5%, 99.2%, and 97.4%, respectively.

Mosques play an important role in the life of Muslim communities, not only as places of worship but also as centers of socio-religious activities. Mosque empowerment is needed to strengthen the function of mosques in various aspects of community life. This research aims to explore and analyze community participation in empowering mosques with a narrative study regarding the implementation of mosque-based Community Service Programs (KKN) at the Al-Muttaqin Mosque, Renah Lebar. The main focus of this research is to understand how community involvement in KKN activities can influence mosque empowerment and community capacity development. The research method used is a narrative study approach which involves in-depth interviews, observation and documentation of various stakeholders, including mosque members, KKN students and the surrounding community. The research results show that community participation in mosque-based KKN programs not only improves the function and role of mosques in the community but also strengthens social ties and motivates the community to be more active in religious and social activities. This research concludes that mosque-based KKN can be an effective model for community empowerment, provided there is careful planning and good collaboration between all parties involved. It is hoped that these findings can contribute to the development of mosque-based community empowerment programs in other areas.

Prayer is one of the five important pillars of Islam. This is an obligation that must be fulfilled by humans as a form of worship to Allah. Prayer is not only a religious ritual, but also a way to achieve the goal of perfect worship, by fulfilling the conditions, harmony, and sunnah, and avoiding anything that could cancel it. Even though prayer is not an obligation for young children such as those who have not reached puberty, parents have the responsibility to introduce prayer and other forms of worship from an early age. This research aims to explore the effectiveness of an educational program that focuses on teaching reading and prayer movements for children at TPQ AL – Faqih Gadungan, Puncu, Kediri. The method used in this research is PAR (Participatory Action Research). The research results showed a significant increase in children's prayer abilities because they felt happy and interested in praying both at TPQ and at home. This program also encourages them to get used to praying with full humility and tu'maninah, and to be able to recite the prayer readings fluently and correctly.

İnflamatuvar Bağırsak Hastalığında Zorlu Hasta Grupları; Gebelik, Laktasyon, Fertilite
Authors: Yakut Aysun
Published: October 2024

İnflamatuar bağırsak hastalığı (İBH) genç bireylerde yüksek bir insidans ve yaygınlığa sahiptir. İBH`da etkilenen hastalar sıklıkla üreme çağındaki popülasyon olması nedeni ile hastalar değerlendirilirken cinsellik, hastalığın kalıtımı, ilaçların ve hastalık aktivitesinin doğurganlık, gebelik sonuçları ve emzirme üzerindeki etkisinin de değerlendirilmesi gerekir. Puberte dönemindeki hastalarda hem hastalık aktivitesi hem de kullanılan ilaçlara bağlı (kortikosteroid gibi) pubertal gelişmede ve büyüme gelişiminde gecikmeler görebiliyoruz. Diğer taraftan İBH`lı hastaların çocuklarının sağlıkları hakkındaki belirsizlik, hastaların aile planlaması seçimlerini etkileyebilir. Bu nedenle, gebe kalmak isteyen veya gebe olan hastaların yönetimi, uzmanlaşmış danışmanlık ve uygun yönetim gerektirir. Bu, multidisipliner bir yaklaşım ve ortak bir karar alma modeli altında olası ebeveynlerin yakın katılımını içerir. Bu sorunları ele alarak pubertal gelişim, doğurganlık gebelik öncesi, gebelik ve gebelik sonrası İBH yönetimi ve danışmanlığını optimize etmeyi ve uyumlu hale getirmeyi amaçladık.

The present study investigated the effect of growth regulators on the quantity and quality of calli of two yew genotypes (Taxus spp.). A factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design was performed using 2,4-D and kinetin on leaf and stem explants of T. baccata and T. brevifolia. Calli traits, including fresh weight, total phenols, total alkaloids, and paclitaxel contents were investigated. The simple effect of hormonal treatments on total phenolic content, total alkaloids, and fresh weight of calli was significant. Total phenols content and fresh weight were not much affected by the interaction of hormonal treatments, whereas total alkaloids content was found increased. Paclitaxel content did not significantly differ between explants. The highest paclitaxel content was found in the leaf explant of T. baccata (30 μg/g), compared to 5 and 10 μg/g in T. baccata stem, T. brevifolia stem, and T. brevifolia leaf, respectively. The fresh weight and total alkaloid content of stem calli of both species were higher than the leaves. Yew is a valuable endangered medicinal plant that responds well to in vitro treatments. Therefore, it is possible to manage the production of its valuable metabolites under in vitro conditions.

This study aimed to explore the potential utilization of agro-lignocellulosic waste materials for oyster mushroom cultivation, addressing the challenge of managing waste associated with these materials. Various combinations of Chickpea Straw (CS) and Wheat Straw (WS) at different ratios-100% CS, 75% CS + 25% WS, 50% CS + 50% WS, 25% CS + 75% WS, and 100% WS-were investigated as substrates for mushroom cultivation. The experiment followed a ccompletely rrandomised design with four replications, monitoring developmental phases, yield, and biological efficiency (BE). Results indicated that using 100% WS as a substrate resulted in the fastest mycelium growth (spawn run), completing in an average of 14.50 days, 17.20 days from spawning to pinhead formation, and 20.60 days to first harvest, with the highest number of fruiting bodies produced. Chickpea straw contributed to the highest stipe width (1.52 cm), while WS 100% had the highest average yield (997.28 g) and BE (99.73%). A mixture of 75% CS and 25% WS showed promising results in terms of fruiting bodies, yield, and BE after 100% WS. Consequently, the study recommends the use of these substrates to optimize Pleurotus ostreatus cultivation yield.

The study was conducted during the winter seasons, comprising the various combinations of inorganic fertilizers (N, P2O5, and K2O) and organic manure (FYM). Treatment T24 [(25 t FYM+160 kg N+120 kg P2O5+100 kg K2O)/ha] emerged as the statistically significant treatment, outperforming others in respect of tallest plant (122.43 cm), leaf count per plant (79.33), leaf length (7.90 cm), and early flower bud initiation (28.01 days), bud initiation to colour shown (47.11 days), and colour shown to flower opening (6.10 days). This treatment also tended to show the longest flower retention on plant (15.30 days), number of flower buds per plant (4.20), bud length (8.96 cm), stalk length (110.10 cm), stalk diameter (0.96 cm), flower diameter (22.98 cm), total chlorophyll content (6.50 mg/g), leaf nitrogen (4.70%), potassium (4.10%), and net assimilation ratio (NAR) (0.0065 mg/cm2/ day). Treatment T23 [(25 t FYM+120 kg N+90 kg P2O5+75 kg K2O)/ha] proved next best treatment. The lowest value was recorded in T25 (Control). Overall, treatment T24 proved to be the most effective treatment statistically for the commercial flower production of LA hybrid lilium for northern Indian plains.

A study was conducted to investigate the genetic architecture of different lines for fruit yield and its associated traits in okra. Fourteen parents, consisting of twelve lines and two testers, were crossed using a Line × Tester mating design in the spring-summer season of 2019-20 at Vegetable Research Farm, CCSHAU, Hisar. The resulting twenty-four hybrids were cultivated in a randomized block design with three replications during the rainy season of 2020-21. Fruit yield/hectare showed a significant range from 87.86 to 150.18 quintals with an average of 117.73 quintals. The phenotypic coefficient of variation ranged from 3.91% (test weight) to 20.23% (Number of branches per plant), slightly surpassing the genotypic coefficient of variation which ranged from 1.98% (test weight) to 12.15% (fruit yield) with high estimate of PCV for the number of branches per plant (20.23%) and a moderate estimate of both PCV and GCV for fruit yield (14.67%, 12.15%), number of fruits per plant (14.34%, 12.06%), respectively. This suggests that the traits studied were more influenced by genetic factors than environmental factors. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as percentage of mean for traits such as number of fruits/plant (70.74%, 20.89%) and fruit yield/hectare (68.65%, 20.74%) suggested that additive genes play a major role in determining these traits respectively. This indicates that it is possible to select high-yielding genotypes by selecting parents with desirable traits. Fruit yield/hectare displayed positive and significant associations with most of the traits like number of fruits per plant (0.95) and plant height (0.36) at phenotypic levels. The number of fruits per plant, 1000 seeds test weight, fruit diameter, and number of branches per plant had the most significant positive effect on fruit yield. Ultimately, such analysis has the potential to assist breeders in formulating their selection strategies aimed at enhancing fruit yield.

Published: October 2024

Los humedales son zonas frágiles y dinámicas expuestas a la influencia de factores naturales y humanos. El humedal de la Bahía de Samborombón se desarrolla en el límite oriental de la Región Deprimida del Salado (Provincia de Buenos Aires). El sector central y norte constituye un ambiente hidrogeológico particular donde la única fuente de agua dulce se aloja en cordones conchiles formando lentes. Desde principios del siglo XX, estos cordones han sido explotados eliminándose con ellos importantes reservorios de agua dulce. El objetivo del trabajo es evaluar los volúmenes de agua subterránea dulce eliminados como consecuencia de la actividad minera con el fin de conocer los límites y potencialidades de las reservas de agua dulce en el área. Se realizó una estimación del volumen de conchilla extraída y de la disminución del volumen de agua dulce como consecuencia de la explotación minera, a partir de relevamientos de campo, mediciones hidrogeológicas y el análisis de cartas topográficas e imágenes satelitales. Los resultados obtenidos evidencian que la eliminación de las reservas de agua dulce por la extracción de conchilla afecta la sustentabilidad hídrica del área.
