Authors: Shioki Takaya , Tsuji Ryuki , Oishi Kota , Fukumuro Naoki , Ito Seigo
Published: March 2024

Fully printable carbon-based multiporous-layered-electrode perovskite solar cells (MPLE-PSCs) are easy to fabricate and have excellent durability. In this study, the porosity of the mesoporous TiO2 layer as the electron transport layer in MPLE-PSCs was controlled by varying the particle diameter of TiO2 nanoparticles from 14 nm to 98 nm. Furthermore, the results of absorbed photon-to-current conversion efficiency, visible light reflectance spectroscopy, pore-size distribution, X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and photovoltaic parameters of MPLE-PSCs are discussed. Although the porous TiO2 layer with smaller nanoparticles showed higher photoabsorption, it was found that the more voids of perovskite crystals created in the TiO2 porous layer, the smaller the particle size (<18 nm). The porous TiO2 layers with particles over 26 nm are well filled with perovskite crystals, resulting in a higher photovoltaic capacity with TiO2 particles over 26 nm. As a result, the short-circuit current density (JSC) showed a maximum value using 43 nm TiO2 particles, with an average power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 10.56 ± 1.42%. Moreover, the PCE showed a maximum value of 12.20% by using 26 nm TiO2 nanoparticles.

Published: March 2024

The prediction of cold load in ice-storage air conditioning systems plays a pivotal role in optimizing air conditioning operations, significantly contributing to the equilibrium of regional electricity supply and demand, mitigating power grid stress, and curtailing energy consumption in power grids. Addressing the issues of minimal correlation between input and output data and the suboptimal prediction accuracy inherent in traditional deep-belief neural-network models, this study introduces an enhanced deep-belief neural-network combination prediction model. This model is refined through an advanced genetic algorithm in conjunction with the “Statistical Products and Services Solution” version 25.0 software, aiming to augment the precision of ice-storage air conditioning load predictions. Initially, the input data undergo processing via the “Statistical Products and Services Solution” software, which facilitates the exclusion of samples exhibiting low coupling. Subsequently, the improved genetic algorithm implements adaptive adjustments to surmount the challenge of random weight parameter initialization prevalent in traditional deep-belief networks. Consequently, an optimized deep-belief neural-network load prediction model, predicated on the enhanced genetic algorithm, is established and subjected to training. Ultimately, the model undergoes simulation validation across three critical dimensions: operational performance, prediction evaluation indices, and operating costs of ice-storage air conditioners. The results indicate that, compared to existing methods for predicting the cooling load of ice-storage air conditioning, the proposed model achieves a prediction accuracy of 96.52%. It also shows an average improvement of 14.12% in computational performance and a 14.32% reduction in model energy consumption. The prediction outcomes align with the actual cooling-load variation patterns. Furthermore, the daily operational cost of ice-storage air conditioning, derived from the predicted cooling-load data, has an error margin of only 2.36%. This contributes to the optimization of ice-storage air conditioning operations.

Authors: Takhtkeshha Narges , Mandlburger Gottfried , Remondino Fabio , Hyyppä Juha
Published: March 2024

Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is a well-established active technology for the direct acquisition of 3D data. In recent years, the geometric information collected by LiDAR sensors has been widely combined with optical images to provide supplementary spectral information to achieve more precise results in diverse remote sensing applications. The emergence of active Multispectral LiDAR (MSL) systems, which operate on different wavelengths, has recently been revolutionizing the simultaneous acquisition of height and intensity information. So far, MSL technology has been successfully applied for fine-scale mapping in various domains. However, a comprehensive review of this modern technology is currently lacking. Hence, this study presents an exhaustive overview of the current state-of-the-art in MSL systems by reviewing the latest technologies for MSL data acquisition. Moreover, the paper reports an in-depth analysis of the diverse applications of MSL, spanning across fields of “ecology and forestry”, “objects and Land Use Land Cover (LULC) classification”, “change detection”, “bathymetry”, “topographic mapping”, “archaeology and geology”, and “navigation”. Our systematic review uncovers the potentials, opportunities, and challenges of the recently emerged MSL systems, which integrate spatial–spectral data and unlock the capability for precise multi-dimensional (nD) mapping using only a single-data source.
Reinforcement Learning as an Approach to Train Multiplayer First-Person Shooter Game Agents
Authors: Almeida Pedro , Carvalho Vítor , Simões Alberto
Published: March 2024

Artificial Intelligence bots are extensively used in multiplayer First-Person Shooter (FPS) games. By using Machine Learning techniques, we can improve their performance and bring them to human skill levels. In this work, we focused on comparing and combining two Reinforcement Learning training architectures, Curriculum Learning and Behaviour Cloning, applied to an FPS developed in the Unity Engine. We have created four teams of three agents each: one team for Curriculum Learning, one for Behaviour Cloning, and another two for two different methods of combining Curriculum Learning and Behaviour Cloning. After completing the training, each agent was matched to battle against another agent of a different team until each pairing had five wins or ten time-outs. In the end, results showed that the agents trained with Curriculum Learning achieved better performance than the ones trained with Behaviour Cloning by a matter of 23.67% more average victories in one case. In terms of the combination attempts, not only did the agents trained with both devised methods had problems during training, but they also achieved insufficient results in the battle, with an average of 0 wins.
On Minimal Entanglement Wedge Cross Section for Holographic Entanglement Negativity
Authors: Basak Jaydeep Kumar , Malvimat Vinay , Parihar Himanshu , Paul Boudhayan , Sengupta Gautam
Published: March 2024

We demonstrate the equivalence of two different conjectures in the literature for the holographic entanglement negativity in AdS3/CFT2, modulo certain constants. These proposals involve certain algebraic sums of bulk geodesics homologous to specific combinations of subsystems, and the entanglement wedge cross section (EWCS) backreacted by a cosmic brane for the conical defect geometry in the bulk gravitational path integral. It is observed that the former conjectures reproduce the field theory replica technique results in the large central charge limit whereas the latter involves constants related to the Markov gap. In this context, we establish an alternative construction for the EWCS of a single interval in a CFT2 at a finite temperature to resolve an issue for the latter proposal involving thermal entropy elimination for holographic entanglement negativity. Our construction for the EWCS correctly reproduces the corresponding field theory results modulo the Markov gap constant in the large central charge limit.
Poly(Imide) Separator Functionalized by Melamine Phosphonic Acid for Regulating Structural and Thermal Stabilities of Lithium-ion Batteries
Authors: Jeon Ye Jin , Park Juhwi , Yim Taeeun
Published: March 2024

As the energy density of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) continues to increase, various separators are being developed to with the aim of improving the safety performance. Although poly(imide) (PI)-based separators are widely used, it is difficult to control their pore size and distribution, and this may further increase the risk associated. Herein, a melamine phosphonic acid (MP)-coated PI separator that can effectively control the pore structure of the substrate is suggested as a remedy. After the MP material is embedded into the PI separator with a simple one-step casting process, it effectively clogs the large pores of the PI separator, preventing the occurrence of internal short circuits during charging. It is anticipated that the MP material can also suppress rapid thermal runaway upon cycling due to its ability to reduce the internal temperature of the LIB cell caused by the desirable endothermic behavior around 300°C. According to experiments, the MP-coated PI separator not only decreases the thermal shrinkage rate better than commercial poly(ethylene) (PE) separators but also exhibits a desirable Gurley number (109.6 s/100 cc) and electrolyte uptake rate (240%), which is unique. The proposed separator is electrochemically stable in the range 0.0–5.0 V (vs. Li/Li+), which is the typical working potential of conventional electrode materials. In practice, the MP-coated PI separator exhibits stable cycling performance in a graphite–LiNi0.83Co0.10Mn0.07O2 full cell without an internal short circuit (retention: 90.3%).

Phenomenal realism and subjective-objective dichotomy
Authors: Sahu Manas Kumar
Published: March 2024

The resolution of subjective-objective dichotomy is not lies in reduction rather grounded on the synthesis of phenomenal aspect and intentional-representational aspect of experience. We have to acknowledge the limits of both physical and mental objectivity and gradually transcend and expand the scope of physical as well as mental objectivity through neutral perspective. The Nagelian version of phenomenal realism has indicated for resolving the subjective-objective dichotomy by observing the interaction of subjective point of view and objective point of view about the reality from neutral perspective.
Del pequeño Albert a la situación extraña

Published: March 2024

El artículo problematiza el abordaje de la ética en la investigación en psicología con infancias en el siglo XX y su articulación con los códigos y principios éticos. Se elaboran tres puntos de inflexión con la literatura en la materia, a saber: (1) un cuestionamiento en la producción de universales que ponen siempre la exclusión de un singular susceptible de ser sometido a suplicio, (2) desplazamiento de la idea de que existe una buena y una mala lectura de los documentos prescriptivos para instalar un énfasis en la multiplicidad de lecturas y usos que se desprenden de los marcos legales, normativos, deontológicos y heurísticos; y (3) una observación de la figura del investigador realzando su carácter marcado en una posición dentro de dinámicas socio-histórico-materiales. Son abordados dos casos de experimentación con infancias en psicología, correspondientes al caso del Pequeño Albert por John B. Watson y Raslie Rayner en 1920, y el protocolo experimental de la Situación Extraña realizado en la década de 1970 por Mary Ainsworth y que fue la base de la Teoría del Apego inventada por John Bowlby. Se concluyen una serie de desafíos para la formación en ética de la investigación en psicología que exceden los márgenes de un enfoque centrado en el conocimiento y manejo de marcos legales, normativos, deontológicos y heurísticos para la resolución de dilemas éticos
Estresse ocupacional e bem-estar
Authors: Benzoni Paulo Eduardo , Richinho Silveira Cruz Andréa
Published: March 2024

O estresse percebido afeta diretamente a sensação de bem-estar e sabe-se que o trabalho é uma das principais fontes de estresse. Neste artigo, objetivou-se analisar a percepção de estresse e bem-estar entre trabalhadores da cidade de Franca (SP) em comparação com o restante do Brasil. Participaram 291 trabalhadores, sendo 110 de Franca (Grupo Franca – GF) e 181 do restante do Brasil (Grupo Brasil – GB). Do total amostral, a maioria foi de mulheres (67,4%) em idade economicamente ativa (75,6%), sem filhos (52,92%), com ensino superior ou pós-graduação (74%), trabalhando em comércio e serviços (61,5%) e em regime celetista (55%). Os participantes responderam, on-line, a dois instrumentos para avaliar a percepção de estresse e bem-estar. Utilizou-se o teste t e correlação de Pearson para análises das variáveis estudadas. Observou-se que o bem-estar indica significativa (p ≤ 0,001) correlação negativa com a percepção de estresse na amostra como um todo (GF r = -0,40 e GB r = -0,50) e, apesar de não terem sido identificadas diferenças significativas entre os grupos, a cidade de Franca não apresentou correlação significativa com os fatores estressores relativos à carga e ao ambiente de trabalho. Todos os demais fatores estressores (financeiro, social, cognições, família, saúde e relaxamento) apresentaram correlações maiores no GB do que no GF. Os dados sugerem que, apesar de o estresse afetar diretamente a sensação de bem-estar, a vivência fora dos grandes centros urbanos, em cidades menores, parece proporcionar uma relação mais adequada com o trabalho.

Published: March 2024

Continuous software quality evolution is crucial albeit challenging due to tight budgets and timelines. In fact, neglecting software quality in favour of customer satisfaction; either by reducing internal or external defects or by adding technical features shall place much pressure on project managers and stakeholders to find a balance between project budget and schedule. The increasing demand for high-quality software among stakeholders emphasizes the need for comprehensive approaches that can evaluate and rank quality metrics to maximize their benefits. In this research paper, we introduce an assessment approach developed using key quality metrics integrated from Cost Of Software Quality (COSQ) metrics, reliability metrics, and cost of defects metrics based on quantitative multicriteria decision analysis capabilities of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model applied with a real case study for the software development team in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) since most of them do not follow standards nor adopt well-structured quality methods. The evaluation is established based on the integrated AHP assessment approach as a practical solution for organizations seeking a critical examination of the relative significance of software metrics in terms of their utility in enhancing business performance. As a result, an evaluation of these quality metrics has been conducted to highlight the percentage of weight for each quality metric based on interviews with subject matters experts. The ranking of software quality metrics greatly helps stakeholders in selecting the most appropriate attribute for evaluating the developed software to identify high-impact quality initiatives and measure their effectiveness in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
The constitutional nature of local self-government
Authors: Rustamzade Aykhan , Huseynov Sahil Zahir
Published: March 2024

The relevance of the study lies in the importance of the functioning of local self-government bodies for ensuring democracy in European countries. The purpose of the study is to examine the constitutional foundations of the institution of local self-government, and the task of the study is to analyse the role of the European Charter in this process. The following methods were used in the study: induction, deduction, and abstraction. The main conclusion of the study is to argue that the European Charter launched a local government reform aimed at improving the efficiency of local governments as an independent level of public authority, as close to the population as possible. However, today, municipal authorities in many countries are fundamentally different from those that were created in previous years. This is primarily due to the lack of the necessary amount of own revenues to enable them to exercise their powers independently. The majority of municipalities need government assistance and intergovernmental transfers. The need to control the expenditure of state budget funds has led to the main trend in the development of local selfgovernment in the Republic of Azerbaijan being its integration into the vertical of public power.

The authors studied the issues of its organizational and implementation components to form a common vision regarding the evolution of the public administration paradigm in general, as well as its features at the current stage of Ukraine’s development as an independent democratic state that is in armed confrontation with an aggressor country. Practical implementation. Since the declaration of Ukraine’s independence, an attempt has been made to optimize the institutional aspect of socio-economic and political reforms, but we may assert that the path chosen at that time was wrong, because it would be more appropriate to conduct administrative reform in a different direction. In this regard, there is still a tendency to constantly optimize domestic legislation and adapt it to the basic principles of public administration which have proven their effectiveness abroad. Value/originality. It is argued that the world community reached a consensus on the expediency of re-orienting all state mechanisms, processes, and relations with the private sector to a person-centred approach, where the individual is postulated as the highest social value, the center of the entire social system and structure.

RESEARCH ON THE INFLUENCE MECHANISM OF WeChat TRAVEL PRODUCTS SHARING ON POTENTIAL TOURISTS’ TRAVEL INTENTION
Authors: Yu Xue
Published: March 2024

In China, WeChat has become an excellent place for Chinese tourists to share their travel products and experiences nowadays due to its wide audience, high usage rate, and immediacy. According to the 49th Statistical Report on the Development of the Internet in China, as of December 2021, the number of social media users in China reached 1.007 billion, accounting for 97.5% of the overall number of Internet users. 43.8% of users use WeChat to “share their lives or opinions”, indicating that WeChat is currently the most widely used and most representative Chinese social media in China. With the advent of the 5G era, WeChat and the products on its platform will further unleash the social value of WeChat, and the value it holds for the development and expansion of the travel market should not be underestimated. Several investigations have shown that the majority of adults are keen to travel to a destination because they are inspired by the travel products and other related content shared by their friends on social media, with a large proportion deciding to travel for reasons of benign envy (Yang Yi, 2020; Liu et al., 2018). Yet, few people know how the role of benign envy can drive travel intention, particularly in terms of intention to visit a tourist destination previously mentioned by WeChat friends. Meanwhile, the relationship between different types of travel product sharing on WeChat and travel intention has not been rigorously examined in research. To fill this research gap, this study aims to conduct an empirical investigation to attest to the travel product sharing-travel intention link. Specially, we investigate whether sharing travel products on WeChat can drive an individual’s destination travel intention through benign envy and how such benign envy can be triggered on social media.

Primary non-Hodgkin’s malignant lymphoma (NHML) of the testis is common in older men and is rare, accounting for between 1 and 9% of testicular tumors. The most common clinical manifestation is a painless unilateral testicular swelling but bilateral involvement is observed in about 35% of patients. We present a 61 year old patient with a history of right orchiectomy 7 months ago. He consulted us with a left testicular pain that was 4 months old. Clinical examination of the patient revealed a large hard left bursa and inguinal adenopathy. Given the patient’s history, the clinical picture, and the lack of additional immunostaining from the anatomical study, a further workup revealed a LMNH of high grade of metastatic germ cell type “B”. After RCP, the patient was refered to oncology.
