Authors: Syapotro Usman , Ratna Silvia , Muflih M. , Budiman Haldi , Noor Ridha M. Rezqy , Hamdani Muhammad
Published: November 2024

Air quality prediction, particularly in estimating PM10 particle concentration, is a
significant challenge in major cities like Jakarta, which experience high levels of air pollution.
This study aims to develop an air quality prediction model using an innovative stacking
framework that combines several machine learning algorithms, namely ConvLSTM, CatBoost,
SVR, and XGBoost. The methodology employed in this research is an experimental approach,
where each model is trained and tested individually before being integrated into the stacking
framework. The dataset used was sourced from the Kaggle platform, containing historical air
quality data in Jakarta. Performance evaluation was conducted by measuring the Root Mean
Squared Error (RMSE) for each model. The results of the study showed that the ConvLSTM
model produced an RMSE of 13.5168, CatBoost with an RMSE of 13.4113, and SVR with an
RMSE of 14.2725. To improve prediction accuracy, the researchers employed a stacking
approach of the four models (ConvLSTM, CatBoost, SVR, and XGBoost), which yielded a
much lower RMSE of 0.8093. Thus, this stacking framework has proven to significantly
enhance air quality prediction performance, particularly in predicting PM10 concentrations in
Jakarta.

Authors: Tunik Tunik , Yulidaningsih Elok , M Yuyun Putri
Published: November 2024

Background. Stroke is a disease of acute decreased nerve function caused by sudden disruption of the brain's blood vessels. Some efforts to prevent strokes need to be carried out at an early age by controlling risk factors for stroke, particularly stroke risk factors in high school adolescents. According to a local survey, almost 90% of teenagers or students of SMK 1 in the 2nd grade have smoking habits, and the number of teenagers who like fast food that is high in carbohydrates, high in fat, high in cholesterol, and do not do any physical exercises regularly. This empowerment aimed to increase the knowledge and skills of teachers and students regarding early stroke prevention.
Implementation Method. The Community Service was conducted in 2023. These empowerment methods used public education, counseling, workshops, and practicum.  Partners in this empowerment were the teachers and students of SMKN 1 Suruh, Trenggalek, East Java, with 40 students and 6 teachers.
Findings. This study showed the increased knowledge of teachers and students about stroke risk factors and early stroke prevention, as well as increased skills in measuring blood pressure. There were 50% of students had sufficient knowledge about stroke risk factors, 50% had adequate skills in measuring BP, and 92.5% of students had a smoking history.
Conclusion. In conclusion, knowledge about stroke risk factors and early prevention of stroke must be carried out starting from an early age, because stroke strikes anyone and varied ages.

Home to the Wilderness: Sensing, Becoming, Experiencing Soul in Sandplay Therapy
Authors: Zappacosta Judy D.
Published: November 2024

The words wilderness, home and soul are explored as critical realities and metaphors that are needed to develop and recover a relationship with nature and the inner world of the psyche. C. G. Jung referred to wilderness and the desert as places of reckoning in his own inner process of discovery working with the unconscious. Newer authors, like Abrams and Bernstein add new dimensions in recovering a lost and ruptured relationship to nature and our bodies. Sandplay constructions are shown. (A version of this article was presented as a keynote address at Returning to the Self: Sandplay Therapists of America National Conference, 2012 in Berkeley, California, USA).
Metaphorical Language in Sandplay Therapy
Authors: Dunn-Fierstein Patricia
Published: November 2024

In this article the author discusses that during sandplay therapy and play therapy sessions clients often speak from the unconscious using metaphorical language. The goal of this article is to explore this form of communication and encourage therapists to become more aware of its power in the healing process. The author identifies four primary reasons that clients speak metaphorically in sandplay and play therapies and offers tools to enhance the therapist's ability to truly listen for this form of expression. The author also identifies and explores five appropriate metaphorical response styles that will enable the client to feel attuned to and will further enhance the healing process. Ample case material is provided to illustrate each example. A case is made for the importance of metaphorical language between client and therapist as a form of "co-regulating communication" that furthers brain development, enhances self-regulation (e.g. Siegel, 1999) and ultimately healing. (This article is a revised transcript of Understanding and Use of Metaphorical Language in Sandplay Therapy presented at Returning to the Self: Sandplay Therapists of America National Conference, 2012 in Berkeley, California, USA).
Sandplay Therapy as a Path Toward Self-Acceptance
Authors: Tang Chih-An
Published: November 2024

This paper presents the sandplay work of a gay man struggling to individuate in a culture that did not support a lifestyle consistent with his nature. The client entered therapy suffering from low self-esteem, isolation, a felt need to conceal his true self, and terror of his secret being revealed. He was fearful because his parents and society rejected his behavior and interests as unmasculine and inappropriate. His work in sandplay, can be seen as a alchemical process which permitted psychic healing through differentiation and ultimate integration of his masculine and feminine sides. This enabled him to contact and appreciate an inner, lively energy and to constellate the self. He began to accept his nature and was able to de-identify with his family's values. A transformation into health was manifested both in the client's sand pictures, and in his thoughts, attitudes and behaviors in daily life.
Kwan Yin: Participation in Suffering
Authors: Kaplan Jill
Published: November 2024

The quality of compassion is explored as necessary to the work of the Sandplay therapist. The author traces the history of the archetype of the Buddhist bodhisattva of compassion, Kwan Yin, as it moved from India to China and Japan, and how it has been central to her in the holding of Sandplay process. In a case example, a young girl, with a family history of trauma and addictions, uses several figures of Kwan Yin in her sandplay. These seem to reflect the movement of the therapy, and to hold the potential of transformation of the girl's ability to relate more positively with her family and friends.
Maypoles: Narratives of Transformation
Authors: Baron Maggie
Published: November 2024

Maypoles, Narratives of Transformation engages with the role of story in sandplay, differentiates the notions of story and narrative and explores the roots of the spring tradition of maypoles in England. Kalff's understanding of children's use of symbolic language and Jung's formulation of the collective unconscious underpin the basis for taking the four stages in the maypole rites as worthy phases in the experiencing of individuation. Speaking of an urban practice, in a modest way the sandplay room, the tray and the evocation of psyche are given space to enact this relation to the ground and its fertility. It is the psychological capacity of an individual to work this ground in sandplay that enables, what is elsewhere, to be present. For example, not the literal mountain or water well, but the sensed meaningfulness or memory of those locations clinical material is offered as visual examples to illustrate the points made.
Dora Kalff in Switzerland: David's Sandplay Story
Authors: Burt Joyce , Friedman Harriet S.
Published: November 2024

The author recounts her memories and experiences as she first trained with Dora Kalff in Switzerland. Burt continued to study sandplay therapy when she joined a consultation group led by Harriet Friedman. A clinical example describes the therapy of a boy who was adopted. The image of a derailed train was a repeated image in his process. Throughout their work the therapist had seen this image as an expression of his early infant trauma and derailment of having been abruptly left by his birth mother. By the end of the therapy the client, now a teenager, built a scene in which the train was again derailed, however this time he straightened the train tracks. The author found that life events and this scene suggested that he was moving forward in his individual way. With an introduction by Harriet S. Friedman.

Sandplay Therapy With Individuals on the Autism Spectrum
Authors: Pelz-Sherman Dori , Olmsted Stephen
Published: November 2024

Individuals diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder may have limited capacities for verbal communication, or they may communicate verbally in an unconventional manner. Sandplay therapy facilitates the expression of unconscious content and nonverbalized emotional issues. This paper articulates the salient aspects of autism that influence how sandplay therapists can conceptualize the therapeutic modality including nuances in sandplay therapy as a treatment with individuals diagnosed with autism. Guidelines for practice and documentation are discussed. Theoretical concepts are presented along with case material that explores integration, deintegration, reintegration and disintegration in the sandplay of two individuals with autism. Patterns of behavior in and out of the sand are outlined. While there is much diversity among individuals diagnosed with autism, themes emerge in the context of sandplay treatment that provide opportunities for the sandplayer. Within the "free and protected space," as defined by Kalff, the individual with autism is not wrong, or delayed, or "obsessed," or dysfunctional, or quirky; the child, and of course the adult as well, is whole, capable and creative.

From "Dry Birth" and Mutism to Symbolic Birth and Thinking: The Many Dimensions of a Child Case
Authors: Capitolo Tessamarie
Published: November 2024

This article is about a 5-year-old boy who began therapy with symptoms of separation anxiety, enuresis, and selective mutism and through the impact of the co-transference slowly developed into a 9-year-old who could concentrate, regulate his emotions, and was developing a capacity of think. The initial birth trauma, resulting in a dry birth seemed to be the root of his symptoms. From the first session to the last, he implicitly and explicitly reenacted his trauma emanating from his engagement with the therapist through all the means that were available to him. By the end of therapy, he not only had developed into a 9-year-old latency age boy who was socially and academically successful but also was able to think and to speak coherently. His internalized capacity to regulate his affect and his external agency were substantially developed and clearly demonstrated.
The Sandplay Collection and Its Possible Implications in the Transference Relationship
Authors: Anderson Marion
Published: November 2024

When sandplay therapists choose figures for their sandplay collections, they are often drawn by personal preferences or important personal symbols, which they then offer to their clients, who compose their own psychic images with this material. This article reflects, supported by research, upon the possible implications of the personal choices and energies between therapist and clients and how this unconscious energy, when brought to consciousness can be helpful in the therapeutic work. This reflection includes clinical material about a child and an adult.
The Serpent and the Dog: Redeeming the Instincts Through Sandplay Therapy
Authors: Blaser Janet
Published: November 2024

This article, from a presentation given at the Sandplay Therapist of America National Conference in Chicago, 2016, examines the sandplay process of a woman at age 50. One of the themes the author explores is her patient's alienation from her feminine instincts. The patient's sandplay scenes activate an inner process that begins to reconnect the patient to her own deepest nature. Animals, particularly the dog and the serpent, embody and symbolize instinctual growth in her sandplay. The relationship between the serpent and the divine feminine is at the center of this transformative process. The feminine containment of dark and shadowy elements illustrates Jung's statement that, "In the light of teleology (or the prospective aspect) the motif of containment signifies the latent state that precedes regeneration."

Poor grain filling is still a major problem in rice production. Recent attention in crop varietal improvement is focused on heritable delayed foliar senescence, enhanced root system, and fast-synchronous grain filling pattern. Nine genotypes were characterized for these three enhanced grain-filling traits to determine the role of these traits on grain yield. Based on heritable delayed foliar senescence, NSIC Rc436 and NSIC Rc512 were characterized as Type A, while PSB Rc18 and NSIC Rc514 as Type B. These genotypes had a significantly higher yield than IR64, owing to their high spikelets number. Data suggested a positive correlation between the delayed foliar senescence and grain number. NSIC Rc480, Arabon, Biniding (IR68), NSIC Rc512, Cuevas, and NSIC Rc436 were characterized with phenotypically superior root characters than IR64. A tendency of direct association was observed between the root characters and the percentage of filled grains and 500-grain weight. Only NSIC Rc480 was characterized with a fast-synchronous pattern, and its percentage of filled grains was significantly higher than the other tested genotypes. Integrating these enhanced grain filling traits in the selection criteria may improve poor grain filling in rice, which is a major constraint in improving the rice yield potential. Preliminary work on the expressions of Cytokinin oxidase 2 (OsCKX2), a gene implicated in the regulation of rice grain yield, was likewise conducted. Differences in the OsCKX2 expression was observed, which may entail a positive note on the exploration at the molecular level to identify the possible role of cytokinin in the gene regulation during rice grain filling.
Analysis of athletes’ technical action based on deep learning
Authors: Zhang Xiaoning
Published: November 2024

In order to raise athletes’ technical proficiency and overall performance, this paper uses deep learning technology to precisely assess table tennis technical activities. The paper builds a hybrid neural network model for technical action analysis of table tennis players, based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) in deep learning. First, CNN extracts the spatial characteristics from the video frames. After that, an LSTM processes these data in a time series to accurately recognize and classify the movements of athletes. Lastly, through trials, the model is trained and evaluated using the Table Tennis Tracking Network (TTNET) dataset. The experimental findings demonstrate that: (1) In table tennis technical action analysis, the suggested deep learning model performs better than other comparative models. The efficacy of combining convolution with sequence learning is fully demonstrated by the CNN-LSTM hybrid model, which performs best in all indicators when compared to the CNN, LSTM, Multi-Objective Function (MOF), and Convolutional Neural Network—Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) combined models. Its accuracy rate, precision rate, recall rate, and F1 score are 0.923, 0.918, 0.925, and 0.921, respectively. In contrast, the performances of LSTM and CNN are also excellent, but the performance of MOF model is relatively low; (2) In the classification of technical actions, the model has the highest classification accuracy of service, reaching 0.930, and the classification accuracy of other technical actions such as forehand stroke, backhand stroke and spike is also above 0.9, and the time sequence consistency index also maintains a high level, indicating that the model can effectively identify and analyze table tennis technical actions. In addition, the performance evaluation of real-time feedback shows that the model can achieve low processing time and feedback delay in video data processing with different lengths, which ensures the real-time and reliability in practical applications. These results show that the proposed model can not only provide accurate technical action recognition, but also provide timely and effective feedback in practical application, which has high practical value. The results of this paper prove the potential of deep learning technology in the analysis of athletes’ technical actions, and provide scientific basis and effective tools for the technical training and optimization of table tennis players.

Law Enforcement in the Perspective of Legal Sociology
Authors: Burhanuddin Burhanuddin  , Wahyuniar Wahyuniar  , Maskawati Maskawati
Published: November 2024

This paper examines the effectiveness of law enforcement in society from the perspective of legal sociology. The goal is to explain the extent to which law enforcement can be effective in society. To obtain data from the problem, the author uses the library research method to collect information relevant to the topic or problem to be studied. The type of data used in this study is secondary data obtained from library materials or literature that have a relationship with the object being studied. The results of the study show that the effectiveness of law enforcement has not been maximized. This is marked by the fact that it is not easy for the law to be enforced in cases involving elites or officials. The law should apply to all circles, not recognizing social stratification in its enforcement, but the reality that occurs is inversely proportional to the principle of law, the law is used as a tool for those who have interests. Therefore, the sociology of law is present to examine the impact of the enactment of a law in society, so that social phenomena can arise and develop in society. The sociology of law and the effectiveness of law are very closely related, because what will be discussed in the sociology of law will not be separated from the assessment of how far the effectiveness of law exists in society as part of social phenomena.
First-principles computational analysis of oxidation in uranium dioxide
Authors:   , Arts Ine
Published: November 2024

Uranium dioxide (UO₂), the primary material in nuclear fuel, is prone to oxidation, which leads to higher oxides like U₃O₈ over time. This oxidation process has significant implications for fuel stability, density, thermal conductivity, and the behavior of fission products—all critical for the safe handling and long-term storage of spent nuclear fuel. In this thesis we explore the oxidation of UO₂ at an atomic scale using advanced computational methods based on density functional theory (DFT). UO₂’s complex magnetic and electronic properties require precise modeling techniques, which are first thoroughly studied in this work in order to accurately describe the material. In early oxidation, oxygen enters as interstitial defects. By focusing on how single oxygen atoms and molecules, like oxygen, water and hydrogen peroxide, interact with the UO₂ surface, we gain insight into the initial stages of the oxidation. As oxidation continues, UO₂ transforms into intermediate compounds where uranium atoms exhibit mixed oxidation states. Interstitial oxygen diffuses into the material, which is enhanced by the presence of grain boundaries —regions where different crystals of the same material meet. Using DFT, the possibility of oxygen accumulation in these UO2 grain boundaries is studied. The study also characterizes U₃O₇, the intermediate phase leading to U₃O₈, using both computational and experimental data. Our findings challenge previous assumptions by identifying a fraction of the uranium atoms in a +VI oxidation state within U₃O₇, which affects its electronic and magnetic behavior. Additionally, a new method for identifying oxidation states of specific atomic sites through DAFS experiments is proposed, laying groundwork for future experimental validation of these computational insights. Overall, this work enhances our understanding of UO₂ oxidation, contributing valuable knowledge for the safe and sustainable management of nuclear fuel.
High Performance Computing Cluster Setup: A Tutorial
Authors: Hofert Marius
Published: November 2024

When computations such as statistical simulations need to be carried out on a high performance computing (HPC) cluster, typical questions arise among researchers or practitioners. How do I interact with a HPC cluster? Do I need to type a long host name and also a password on every single login or file transfer? Why does my locally working code not run anymore on the HPC cluster? How can I install the latest versions of software on a HPC cluster to match my local setup? How can I submit a job and monitor its progress? This tutorial provides answers to such questions with experiments on an example HPC cluster.
HEI Analysis of NHANES Dietary Data: Exploring the Diet Quality of Americans with R Package heiscore

Published: November 2024

Connections between subpar dietary choices and negative health consequences are well established in the field of nutritional epidemiology. Consequently, in the United States, there is a standard practice of conducting regular surveys to evaluate dietary habits. One notable example is the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted every two years by the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Several scoring methods have been developed to assess the quality of diet in the overall population as well as different pertinent subgroups using dietary recall data collected in these surveys. The Healthy Eating Index (HEI) is one such metric, developed based on recommendations from the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Department of Agriculture (USDA) and widely used by nutritionists. Presently, there is a scarcity of user-friendly statistical software tools implementing the scoring of these standard scoring metrics. Herein, we develop an R package heiscore to address this need. Our carefully designed package, with its many user-friendly features, increases the accessibility of the HEI scoring using three different methods outlined by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Additionally, we provide functions to visualize multidimensional diet quality data via various graphing techniques, including bar charts and radar charts. Its utility is illustrated with many examples, including comparisons between different demographic groups.

Introdução: Anualmente, nascem quase 30 milhões de bebês prematuros em todo o mundo, sendo considerado prematuro o bebê que nasce com menos de 37 semanas de gestação, sendo assim, quanto maior a prematuridade, maiores as complicações ao nascimento. Sabe-se que 10% dos recém-nascidos necessitam de auxílio respiratório ao nascer e, dentre as patologias associadas à prematuridade, a Síndrome do Desconforto Respiratório (SDR) se torna a mais comum, manifestando desconforto respiratório nas primeiras 24 horas de vida. Desse modo, o CPAP selo d’água entra em atuação, por se tratar de um modo não invasivo de suporte ventilatório, que atua no recrutamento pulmonar, sendo amplamente estudado e com benefícios e segurança da utilização relatados em estudos prévios no tratamento de Recém Nascidos Pré Termos (RNPT) com SDR. Objetivo: Diante do exposto, o estudo analisou o impacto do uso do CPAP selo d’água nas primeiras 24 horas de vida de recém nascidos pré termos diagnosticados com a Síndrome do Desconforto Respiratório. Resultados: Foram analisados 40 RNPT, sendo observado predomínio do sexo masculino e média de idade gestacional de 33 semanas, onde todos bebês apresentavam esforço respiratório no momento inicial ao uso do CPAP, observado uma diminuição do esforço respiratório ao longo das primeiras 24 horas de vida. Ainda foram observados redução da frequência respiratória e aumento da saturação de oxigênio neste mesmo intervalo. Conclusão: O CPAP selo d’água é capaz de impactar positivamente nas complicações respiratórias advindas da Síndrome do Desconforto Respiratório em neonatos prematuros nas primeiras 24 horas de vida, prevenindo intubações e ventilação mecânica invasiva.
