Analysis of the problem of implementation of automated air traffic control systems showed that automation in aviation began to be used primarily to solve navigation problems and control various systems. The widespread introduction of computer-aided automation in ground-based air traffic control systems has freed air traffic controllers and air traffic controllers from time-consuming computational operations and made it possible to automate a number of complex tasks and thus significantly increase flight safety. Further development of aviation equipment, information technology, radio navigation and surveillance requires a rapid solution of complex problems with high accuracy, which necessitated the improvement of existing and creation of fundamentally new technical means that meet the requirements of modern aviation and international air traffic regulations. Such technical means include EGNOS systems. The study of the proposed location for the EGNOS RIMS station at the Kyiv International Airport (Zhulyany) was carried out. Thanks to the fruitful support of the DCA provided by the GSA contractor ThalesAleniaSpace, the study helped to gather the necessary data to work offline. This offline processing is complete and issues have been identified. The interference that has been selected affects the location. One of the key criteria for site selection is the radio frequency (RF) environment, as environmental conditions have a direct negative impact on the performance of the EGNOS system. It turns out that the measurements carried out during the study highlighted the sources of interference, the power of which exceeds the required level in the used frequency bands GPS L1 and L2. as these interferences will adversely affect the performance of the EGNOS RIMS receiver. One way to restore compliance is to study these interference sources and remove them if possible. On the other hand, the proposed location at Kyiv International Airport (Zhulyany) provides a promising level of compliance for life safety services.

Published: July 2021

Code on the outputs of adder binary numbers described as the remainder of the sum the initial data on the adder module is equal to output carry weight. An original technique for synthesizing a way of operands representation in the addition and subtraction schemes of integers in a code with a negative zero was developed, which is based on the representation the source data in the form a remainder on the adder module. A method of computer representation for integer numbers is proposed, in which the codes of posi-tive and negative numbers are formed by the same procedure. The property of duality the addition and sub-traction operations on the initial data in the code with a negative zero have justified analytically. Areas of allowable results values for the correct input data addition and subtraction operations are determined. It is identified combination of the adder output signals, which determine the presence and polarity the adder bit grid overflow. It is shown that designed fixing scheme bit grid overflow of adder outputs invariant with re-spect to operations of addition and subtraction of source data with a negative zero code. For the analytical description of arithmetic operations on integer numbers represented with the proposed encoding method, a technique of calculating the sum and difference of numbers using the biased supplementary code has been proposed. Analytically substantiated, that the technique makes the scheme of the operational adder homoge-neous. The rules for establishing the correctness of the addition and subtraction operations of the integers given in the proposed encoding form are given. For true values of the initial arguments, the sums and the differences codes ranges are obtained, and the rules for positive and negative overflows identification are proposed. The original usage of a common numerical bias during the operands encoding, that evinces itself in the advantages of basic computer operations technical implementation, predetermines positive properties in practical implementations of more complex arithmetical actions.

For a typical low complexity video sequence, the weight of each P-frame in the stream is approximately three times smaller than the I-frame weight. However, taking into account the number of P-frames in the group, they make the main contribution to the total video data amount. Therefore, the possibility of upgrading coding methods for P-frames is considered on preliminary blocks' type identification with the subsequent formation of block code structures. As the correlation coefficient between adjacent frames increases, the compression ratio of the differential-represented frame's binary mask increases. The compression ratio of the differential-represented frame's binary mask varies from 3 to 21 depending on the correlation coefficient between adjacent frames. Estimation of the bit representation's information content of the differential-represented frame's binary mask on the basis of accounting for the nonequilibrium of the bases of the lengths of the binary series does not require an increase in the complexity of the software-hardware implementation. Due to the double-alphabetic power code, the differential-represented frame's binary mask is relative to the single-alphabet code will decrease by 17%. The most preferable method for constructing the compact representation technology of the binary masks of frames represented in a differential form is the approach. This is based on the identification and description of the lengths of one-dimensional binary series. A binary series is a consecutive binary elements sequence with the same value. In this case, sequences of identical binary elements are replaced by their lengths. And since the elements of the binary masks of the frames represented in the differential form take only two possible values 0 or 1, it is suggested to form the lengths of the binary series without indicating their level.

A method of modeling a digital corrector of intersymbol distortions of signals in the information transmission channel, determining the optimal values of the weighting correctors when passing a sequence of random binary signals, checking the efficiency by determining the number of demodulation errors in signal distortion by noise. The demodulator adaptation model is shown, which is reduced to the calculation of the weighted sum of 4 samples of the input signal and the comparison of the obtained sum with the threshold. The basic operations on adaptation of weight coefficients of the corrector of the signals distorted by intersymbol interference at various types of transfer function of the channel of transfer of discrete signals are defined. The algorithm of the program for calculation of number of errors of demodulation at signal distortion by noises of intersymbol interference is offered. The calculation of the corrector optimization criterion is performed by the method of coordinate descent with the possibility of visualizing the iterative procedure of calculating the corrector optimization criterion at the selected values of the correction coefficients and calculation accuracy. The formation of the input and output signal is carried out using the built-in inverse fast Fourier transform function of the mathematical package MathCAD. The mathematical model of the digital corrector, which is a kind of FIR filter, allows us to investigate the effectiveness of compensation between character distortion and stationary linear distortion of information signals provided in discrete channels of information message transmission. The initial data for the calculation of the digital corrector are the readings of the pulse response, taken at time intervals in accordance with the conditions of Kotelnikov's theorem. To solve the system of linear algebraic equations when finding the coefficients of the digital corrector, the vector - matrix method of calculation and programming operators of the MathCAD system are used.
Non-reference assessment of video quality using statistical methods
Authors:   State University of Telecommunications, Grebenyuk V. V.
Published: July 2021

The article considers the problem of finding a way to assess the quality of video in the absence of a standard for comparison. In the literature, such methods of assessing image quality are called no-reference (NR) or NR-methods. First of all, the article examines the artifacts of image compression. The relevance of this approach is that the data is compressed when material transmitting over the Internet to save information. This method is based on criteria that characterize the degree of change in the brightness of video frames. By themselves, the criteria allow to conduct a comparative analysis of image quality not in all cases. In this article, to assess the quality it is proposed to use criteria which are based on statistical methods, which reflects the degree of change in brightness in the aggregate. These criteria are completely new in the field of research the quality of both video streaming and images in general. The proposed method takes into account all possible changes in the characteristics of the image with deteriorating quality. During the experiment, the feasibility of using these methods in the problem of ranking the material by the level of compression artifacts was demonstrated. It has been experimentally shown that none of the studied non-reference methods of image quality assessment is universal, and the calculated assessment cannot be converted into a quality scale without taking into account the factors influencing the distortion of image quality. Also, this method forms the final estimate as the arithmetic mean of the estimates of rows and columns of the image. In the case of local distortions, the proposed methods may not give completely true results. To conduct the experiment, the program code was implemented in the MATLAB environment, using the library for computer image processing Image Processing Toolbox.

ФРАНКОМОВНА ДРАМАТУРГІЯ ІТАЛІЙСЬКОЇ КОМЕДІЇ (1660–1697) ЯК КУЛЬТУРОЛОГІЧНИЙ ФЕНОМЕН РАННЬОГО РОКОКО
Authors: Данченко Марія Леонідівна
Published: July 2021

Мета статті — визначити особливості становлення стилю рококо та дослідити його культурологічну специфіку у французькій драматургії. Актуальність дослідження зумовлена відсутністю в українській культурології наукових робіт, які б висвітлювали проблематику формування стилю рококо у французькій та західноєвропейській драматургії. Також недостатньо представленим в українських наукових роботах лишається і вивчення діяльності Італійської комедії у Франції з 1660 по 1697 роки. Методологія дослідження передбачає вивчення культурної специфіки франкомовної драматургії Італійської комедії (1660–1697) інтердисциплінарними методами культурологічного та порівняльно-філологічного аналізу. В статті проаналізовано лінгвістичні особливості тексту першоджерела з огляду на той факт, що з 1682 року п’єси для Італійської комедії писали сумішшю французької та італійської мов. Наукова новизна полягає у вивченні взаємодії французьких та італійських культурно-стилістичних елементів у п’єсах Анн Модюї де Фатувіля та ролі цієї взаємодії у формуванні у французькій культурі нового стилю — рококо. У дослідженні використано неперекладену п’єсу «Арлекін, імператор на Місяці» Анн Модюї де Фатувіля. Результати дослідження демонструють, що письменник вживав у п’єсі, написаній французькою мовою, італійські слова і вислови не лише для збереження італійського колориту, але і з метою досягнення комічного ефекту. Висновки. Французькі автори почали імітувати стиль італійських комедій та імпортували культурний колорит Італії, однак пом’якшували грубий гумор італійських комедій і пристосовували його до французьких смаків, заклавши цим ідеологічні основи нового стилю рококо. Анн Модюї де Фатувіль може вважатися одним із перших засновників і представників стилю літературного рококо.

Мета статті — дослідити специфіку культурної аналітики як теоретичного концепту Льва Мановича та визначити можливості його практичного застосування для аналітичної та експертної діяльності у сфері культури. Методологія дослідження пов’язана з використанням методу аналізу, який спрямований на окреслення особливостей теоретичного концепту Льва Мановича; методу аналогії з метою демонстрації застосування результатів роботи Cultural Analytics Lab та практики здійснення аналітичної діяльності у сфері культури. Прогностичний метод залучено задля висвітлення алгоритму проведення аналітики культури, яка має рухатись у логіці від збору даних до їх експертної інтерпретації. Наукова новизна полягає в окресленні можливостей практичного застосування напрацювань Льва Мановича у сфері культурної аналітики. Висновки. Сфера культури є динамічною системою, яка перманентно змінюється. Це спричинює моніторинг того, яким чином модифікуються різні сектори культури, мистецькі практики та креативні індустрії. Видозміни та розвиток культурного простору обумовлюють необхідність його дослідження та формування нової методології. Розробки Льва Мановича, здійснені у Cultural Analytics Lab, відкривають новий інструмент, що може застосовуватись для візуалізації даних про культуру, зокрема про цифрові та оцифровані дані. Культурна аналітика є комплексним підходом, що спирається на досягнення різних дисциплін — мистецтвознавства, історії, соціології комп’ютерних наук та власне культурології, і може сприйматись як початковий етап, за яким буде відбуватись експертна діяльність. Здійснення розвідок у сфері культури нерозривно пов’язане із застосуванням міждисциплінарного підходу, коли не лише надається об’єктивна інформація, але й вона підлягає інтерпретуванню з боку експертів та фахівців у цій гуманітарній царині.

Published: July 2021

Мета статті — схарактеризувати Gartner Hype Cycle methodology як спробу виявлення закономірностей розвитку сучасних інформаційно-комунікаційних технологій. Методологія дослідження ґрунтується на застосуванні загальнонаукової групи формально-логічних методів, таких як аналіз, синтез, абстрагування, а також системного і структурно-функціонального підходів. Наукова новизна полягає у тому, що у роботі розширено уявлення про методики аналізу тенденцій і закономірностей розвитку сучасних інформаційно-комунікаційних технологій, звернено увагу на необхідність врахування даних наявних методик оцінювання стану розвитку ІКТ в гуманітарних дослідженнях для отримання більш обґрунтованих висновків. У статті акцентовано на необхідності всебічного і ґрунтовного аналізу з погляду гуманітаристики досягнень, тенденцій, закономірностей і перспектив розвитку інформаційно- комунікаційних технологій — одного з ключових чинників життєдіяльності сучасного суспільства. Подано класифікацію ІКТ, що ґрунтується на врахуванні видів і способів отримання та обробки інформації. Наведено детальний аналіз Gartner Hype Cycle methodology, звернено увагу на її недоліки. Висновки. Наголошено, що оскільки сфера інформаційних і комунікаційних технологій схильна до постійних змін і надзвичайно швидкого, а головне — непередбачуваного розвитку мало не щохвилини, то кожна зміна поколінь засобів інформаційної технології вимагає не просто навчання і підвищення кваліфікації, а й радикальної зміни мислення фахівців і користувачів, зміни обладнання тощо. Звернено увагу, що розробка та використання в численних сферах життєдіяльності людини NBIC-технологій зумовлює необхідність, по-перше, прийняття неминучості процесу застосування прогресивних технологій, якими б неймовірними і фантастичними не здавалися наслідки їх впровадження; по-друге, послідовного культурологічного осмислення й адекватного супроводу пов’язаних із цим процесом досягнень і ризиків.

Published: July 2021

Tujuan dari penelitian yang berjudul Pendidikan Politik sebagai Amanat Undang-Undang adalah untuk mengetahui apa dan bagaimana pendidikan politik itu dan bagaimana penyampaian pendidikan berpolitik kepada masyarakat sesuai dengan amanat dari Undang-Undang No 2 Tahun 2011 tentang Partai Politik. Beberapa partai politik di Indonesia memang telah memiliki perencanaan dalam memberikan pendidikan politik kepada masyarakat dengan mengadakan sekolah partai atau seminar-seminar bertemakan pendidikan politik. Namun didalam pelaksanaannya, ada saja masalah yang menghambat program yang telah dirancang dan ditetapkan tersebut. Hambatan yang sering dihadapi oleh partai politik dalam memberikan pendidikan politik kepada masyarakat adalah seringkali masyarakat bersikap skeptis terhadap partai politik dikarenakan berbagai permasalahan yang ada di dalam tubuh partai politik itu sendiri. Mulai dari masalah internal seperti dualisme kepemimpinan sampai kepada masalah eksternal seperti terjerat kasus korupsi menjadi problematika dari partai politik dalam memberikan pendidikan politik. Di dalam menghadapi permasalahan inilah kemudian diperlukan peran dari seluruh elemen partai politik, dari ketua hingga simpatisan, untuk mengembalikan citra partai politik agar dapat memberikan pendidikan politik kepada masyarakat.
A Cross-National Study of Dementia Stigma Among the General Public in Israel and Australia
Authors: Werner Perla , Kim Sarang
Published: July 2021

Background: Despite the increasing amount of research on dementia stigma, there is a dearth of cross-national studies conducted on this subject. This is surprising since the experience of stigma is closely associated to socio-cultural aspects. Objective: The present study intended to expand knowledge about the impact of culture on dementia stigma by comparing the level and correlates of stigmatic beliefs about dementia among the general public in Israel and Australia. Methods: A cross-sectional study using an online survey was conducted with two age-matched samples: 447 adults in Israel and 290 adults in Australia. Results: Overall, dementia stigma was moderate in both countries. However, the level of dementia stigma was significantly higher in Australia than in Israel. Lower levels of subjective knowledge and higher levels of ageism were associated with increased levels of stigmatic beliefs in both countries. Gender was a significant correlate of dementia stigma, with male participants reporting higher levels of public stigma than women, although this gender difference was mainly driven by the Australian sample. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that providing knowledge and decreasing ageist attitudes should be key considerations in dementia awareness and stigma reduction campaigns despite the cultural context. In addition, developing gender-specific messages should be considered as a way of improving the effects of such campaigns.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) has emerged as a human catastrophe worldwide, and it has impacted human life more detrimentally than the combined effect of World Wars I and II. Various research studies reported that the disease is not confined to the respiratory system but also leads to neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders suggesting that the virus is potent to affect the central nervous system (CNS). Moreover, the damage to CNS may continue to rise even after the COVID-19 infection subsides which may further induce a long-term impact on the brain, resulting in cognitive impairment. Neuroimaging techniques is the ideal platform to detect and quantify pathological manifestations in the brain of COVID-19 survivors. In this context, a scheme based on structural, spectroscopic, and behavioral studies could be executed to monitor the gradual changes in the brain non-invasively due to COVID-19 which may further help in quantifying the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of the survivors. Extensive research is required in this direction for identifying the mechanism and implications of COVID-19 in the brain. Cohort studies are urgently required for monitoring the effects of this pandemic on individuals of various subtypes longitudinally.
(α, β)-Multi-granulation bipolar fuzzified rough sets and their applications to multi criteria group decision making
Authors: Gul Rizwan , Shabir Muhammad
Published: July 2021

Pawlak’s rough set theory based on single granulation has been extended to multi-granulation rough set structure in recent years. Multi-granulation rough set theory has become a flouring research direction in rough set theory. In this paper, we propose the notion of (α, β)-multi-granulation bipolar fuzzified rough set ((α, β)-MGBFRSs). For this purpose, a collection of bipolar fuzzy tolerance relations has been used. In the framework of multi-granulation, we proposed two types of (α, β)-multi-granulation bipolar fuzzified rough sets model. One is called the optimistic (α, β)-multi-granulation bipolar fuzzified rough sets ((α, β) o-MGBFRSs) and the other is called the pessimistic (α, β)-multi-granulation bipolar fuzzified rough sets ((α, β) p-MGBFRSs). Subsequently, a number of important structural properties and results of proposed models are investigated in detail. The relationships among the (α, β)-MGBFRSs, (α, β) o-MGBFRSs and (α, β) p-MGBFRSs are also established. In order to illustrate our proposed models, some examples are considered, which are helpful for applying this theory in practical issues. Moreover, several important measures associated with (α, β)-multi-granulation bipolar fuzzified rough set like the measure of accuracy, the measure of precision, and accuracy of approximation are presented. Finally, we construct a new approach to multi-criteria group decision-making method based on (α, β)-MGBFRSs, and the validity of this technique is illustrated by a practical application. Compared with the existing results, we also expound its advantages.

Biometry is the science that enables living things to be distinguished by examining their physical and behavioral characteristics. The facial recognition system (FCS) is a kind of biometric system. FCS provides a unique mathematical model by determining the distance between the cheekbones, chin, nose, eyes, jawline, and similar positions using the facial features of the persons. Determining the gender and age group of chosen persons’ from face images is the main purpose of this study. It is targeted to distinguish the gender of the person and to obtain information about the person is children or adults by making essential works on the images. Convolutional neural network (CNN) is one of the deep face recognition algorithms that widely used to recognize facial images. This study is suggested as a study that detects noise in images using the fuzzy logic-based filter method and classifies this cleared data by gender using the matrix completion and CNN. TensorFlow which is a machine learning library that used to train and tests deep learning methods is used for experiments. The customer photographs taken during using the system are transformed into a matrix expression through a system trained using this algorithm. The obtained results indicated that the offered technique detects age and gender with a 96% accuracy value and 1.145 seconds time.

Background: Genetic studies have indicated that variants in several lysosomal genes are risk factors for idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the role of lysosomal genes in PD in Asian populations is largely unknown. Objective: This study aimed to analyze rare variants in lysosomal related genes in Chinese population with early-onset and familial PD. Methods: In total, 1,136 participants, including 536 and 600 patients with sporadic early-onset PD (SEOPD) and familial PD, respectively, underwent whole-exome sequencing to assess the genetic etiology. Rare variants in PD were investigated in 67 candidate lysosomal related genes (LRGs), including 15 lysosomal function-related genes and 52 lysosomal storage disorder genes. Results: Compared with the autosomal dominant PD (ADPD) or SEOPD cohorts, a much higher proportion of patients with multiple rare damaging variants of LRGs were found in the autosomal recessive PD (ARPD) cohort. At a gene level, rare damaging variants in GBA and MAN2B1 were enriched in PD, but in SCARB2, MCOLN1, LYST, VPS16, and VPS13C were much less in patients. At an allele level, GBA p. Leu483Pro was found to increase the risk of PD. Genotype-phenotype correlation showed no significance in the clinical features among patients carrying a discrepant number of rare variants in LRGs. Conclusion: Our study suggests rare variants in LRGs might be more important in the pathogenicity of ARPD cases compared with ADPD or SEOPD. We further confirm rare variants in GBA are involve in PD pathogenecity and other genes associated with PD identified in this study should be supported with more evidence.
Biology and Management of Benghal Dayflower (Commelina benghalensis) in Ornamental Crop Production
Authors: Khamare Yuvraj , Marble Chris , Stamps Robert
Published: July 2021

Benghal dayflower is listed among the world’s worst weeds, affecting over 25 crops in 29 countries (Holm et al., 1977). Benghal dayflower has many characteristics that make it a very troublesome weed in Florida landscapes, nurseries and other agricultural production areas. It was first recorded in Florida in 1928 and was designated as a legally noxious weed by the U.S Department of Agriculture in 1983 (Faden, 1993). Due to its status as a legally noxious weed, presence of benghal dayflower on nursery property can lead to quarantines, so identification and management is critical for nurseries. This 5-page article is written for green industry professionals and others to aid in the identification and management of benghal dayflower in and around ornamental plants. Major revision by Yuvraj Khamare, Chris Marble, and Robert Stamps, and published by the UF/IFAS Environmental Horticulture Department.

Nutritional Composition and Marketable Shelf-Life of Blood Ark Clams and Ponderous Ark Clams
Authors: Sturmer Leslie N. , Morgan Kimberly L. , Degner Robert L.
Published: July 2021

The rapid growth of Florida's hard clam industry over the past decade has motivated aquaculturists to explore alternative molluscan species, which could reduce exposure to production risks and simultaneously promote market expansion. Species diversification could possibly provide some degree of protection against potential disastrous losses associated with a monoculture-based industry. Further, production of other molluscan species could potentially increase sales and profitability, expanding clam consumers' options. The Blood Ark (Anadara ovalis) and the Ponderous Ark (Noetia ponderosa) clams represent two possible production opportunities. This is EDIS document FE568, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

Strawberries: Main Pests and Beneficials in Florida
Authors: Rondon Silvia I. , Price James F. , Cantliffe Daniel J.
Published: July 2021

The strawberry, Fragaria x ananassa, is an important small fruit crop in Florida. The sunshine state leads the southeastern U.S. in strawberry production and ranks second to California nationwide. The mild weather of Florida's fall and winter seasons sustain the nation's second largest strawberry production. These conditions, unfortunately, are also suitable for several arthropod pests to multiply and feed on the crop. Strawberry plants are quickly established two weeks after the transplanting irrigation is turned off. This is the time growers must begin to scout their fields at least once a week to assess the status of pests, such as spider mites, cyclamen mites, lepidopterous larvae, aphids, thrips, and sap beetles. The ability to recognize these pests, their damage, and their natural enemies is important in determining the best control methods for each situation. Keep in mind that miticide or insecticide choices are limited if you participate in a biological control program. This document is HS1018, one of a series of the Horticultural Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Applying Care to Political Public Relations: Crisis Communications Following the Terrorist Attack in New Zealand
Authors: Proverbs Pamala Pamandus , Lan Xiaomeng , Albishri Osama , Kiousis Spiro
Published: July 2021

Care is not a word generally associated with political crises. However, following the mosques massacre in New Zealand, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was found to have used care and a feminist approach to political communication that served to unite rather than divide her country following this racially motivated terrorist attack. There is much literature on corporate crises, but this paper adds to the dearth of literature on political crises in a public interest context. Grounded in a consideration of care and agenda building theories, it reveals that a caring approach to political communication (both verbal and nonverbal) following an act of terrorism can influence the media agenda and by extension public opinion.
