„Niestety, na Murmań spóźniłem się…” Kulisy początków działalności społecznej dra Józefa Jakóbkiewicza (1892-1953)
Authors: Szady Joanna
Published: December 2024

Artykuł prezentuje kluczowy moment w biografii Józefa Jakóbkiewicza, lekarza, działacza społecznego i harcerskiego, który miał przełomowe znaczenie dla Jego aktywności życiowej i zawodowej. „Epizod murmański” z 1918 r., związany ze zmianą trasy w trakcie wydostawania się z terenów Rosji Sowieckiej, spowodował zwrot Jakóbkiewicza ku działalności opiekuńczo-wychowawczej. Mając za sobą odbycie służby wojskowej w czasie I wojny światowej oraz pracę na posadach lekarza na Syberii, Jakóbkiewicz zaangażował się w latach 1919-1923 w akcję przewiezienia dzieci syberyjskich do Polski. Pomoc dzieciom z Syberii rozwijał też po powrocie do kraju, po czym w drugiej połowie lat dwudziestych powrócił do zawodu lekarza. Wątek biograficzny ujęty w artykule skupia się na wczesnym etapie Jego życia, poprzedzającym znany z literatury przedmiotu, dorobek na rzecz pomocy dzieciom w okresie międzywojennym. Na potrzeby opracowania tekstu, pozyskano materiały biograficzne z zasobów Archiwum Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego oraz Głównej Biblioteki Lekarskiej. W artykule scharakteryzowano tło wydarzeń historycznych i sytuacji społeczno-politycznej, którego zrozumienie stanowi klucz do zaprezentowania zróżnicowanej drogi życiowej Jakóbkiewicza.

A Study on Gas‑sensing Behavior of Reduced Graphene Oxide (rGO) Green Method, Enhansing the Performance of Green-synthesized Reduced Graphene Oxide
Authors: - Dr.P. Laveena Manjulatha
Published: December 2024

This paper presents a comparative study on gas-sensing behavior of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) synthesized by chemical and green synthesis route. GO is synthesized by Hummers method and then reduced employing two reducing agents hydrazine hydrate [represented by (rGO)1] and L-citrulline [represented by (rGO)2]. Synthesized products were then obtained in the form of thin films, and tested for 10 ppm NO2 and CO at operating temperatures of 50, 100, and 150 °C. The green-synthesized reduced graphene oxide (rGO)2 exhibits higher relative response of 254.7% as compared to conventionally synthesized (rGO)1 (93.9%) and GO (22.7%) for 10 ppm NO2 at operating temperature of 150 °C. Furthermore, a switching of conductivity from usual p-type behavior to n-type on exposure of NO2 is observed at all operating temperatures (50, 100, and 150 °C) for GO, (rGO)1, and (rGO)2. The XRD, FTIR, and Raman confirm the oxidation and reduction process. (rGO)2 shows high thermal stability as observed through TGA. FESEM and TEM images show wrinkled sheet structure for GO as well (rGO)1 and (rGO)2. The data observed from the characterization of resultant products have made it possible to explain better reduction of GO through green-reducing agent and enhanced gas-sensing performance of green-synthesized reduced graphene oxide.

Published: December 2024

There are many popular vegetables in the world, among them cucumber is one of the most famous and healthiest foods. It comes with multiple health benefits, especially in losing weight and in skincare. However, there can be multiple diseases that can attack the cucumber leaf and the cucumber itself. Cucumber leaf disease research plays a cardinal role in agricultural fields. Cucumber leaf disease is a special disease that harms its leaves and causes different types of diseases. In real fields, it is difficult to identify different diseases on the leaf due to the complex environment. It is also a very challenging and time-consuming process to identify leaf diseases. To overcome those barriers and detect the diseases we have used two learning methods namely DenseNet201 and VGG16 model. In this research, we have created a new dataset with four classes containing 2159 pictures with an accuracy rate of 98.97% from DenseNet201. The image recognition methods choose the image and find the disease's spot by breaking the image frame by frame. We have rescaled all the images while preprocessing where the image size is 224×224. The methods show great success in finding the disease spots.

Taiwan Thorn in Chinese Rejuvenation
Authors: - Chinmayi Srimushnam
Published: December 2024

The ramifications of geopolitical tensions between China and Taiwan are wide-reaching, and the "Taiwan Question" ceases to be China's domestic affair. Wanting to stop at nothing less than the complete absorption of Taiwan into China, Beijing has consistently put concerted efforts, including offering economic inducements, to isolate Taipei and make Taiwan a "pariah nation". Despite this, Taiwan is the world's largest semiconductor exporter and is an integral part of the global chain for the supply of electronics and machinery. Such economic, and military deterrence has kept China away from annexing Taiwan completely so far. Taiwan continues to stand as a sore thumb in achieving the Chinese dream by 2049. The focal point of this article is to expound the reasons for the rise in tensions specifically in the last three decades and the impact of Beijing-Taipei dynamics on other countries.

Authors: - Sirajddola Nadaf , - Shivaji lamani
Published: December 2024

Minimizing communication overhead in decentralized deep neural network (DNN) training has become a critical challenge, particularly with the increasing adoption of distributed systems for large-scale machine learning tasks. This paper introduces advanced techniques that leverage gradient compression, adaptive sparsification, and hybrid aggregation to optimize communication efficiency while maintaining model accuracy and convergence rates. Experimental results on benchmark datasets such as CIFAR-10 and ImageNet show that the proposed methods reduce communication costs by up to 70% compared to standard approaches while achieving comparable or superior model accuracy. Additionally, scalability tests on diverse neural network architectures highlight the robustness of the approach, demonstrating efficient performance across varying network sizes and computational setups. These findings underscore the potential of the proposed strategies to enable faster, cost-effective, and sustainable decentralized deep learning systems.

ЛЕКЦИЯ ПО ЛОГИКА. (1897) ГОТЛОБ ФРЕГЕ
Authors: - Plamen Nikolov
Published: December 2024

Това е превод на български език на една от най-емблематичните лекции на германския философ, логик и математик Готлоб Фреге. Този труд не е публикуван приживе на автора, а впоследствие е издаден като част от негови събрани съчинения.
Текстът е емблематичен по отношение на философските нагласи от края на XIX в., свързани с логика на езика и психолингвистика.
Изложението е характерно с извеждането на различието между мисъл и съждение от една страна, и мнение и преценка – от друга, като функция на отликата между психологизирания вид на мислене и законите на строго логическата парадигма. Авторът деонтологизира езика като носител на логическото и се фокусира върху понятието за истинност в битиен контекст. Показани са някои сравнителни езикови примери в логическа конотация, както и са демонстрирани приликите и разликите с тезите на автора при други мислители, спрели своя познавателен интерес върху въпросите на символната логика, теорията на множествата и философията на езика. Лекцията може да представлява интерес и за по-широк кръг от читатели, които имат интереси в сферата на формалната логика и изобщо – които са любопитни как се конструира логическото мислене.

Published: December 2024

The latest advancements in Artificial Intelligence, especially in Deep Learning technology, accelerate innovation and development in different application domains. The development of Deep Learning technology has profoundly impacted military development trends, leading to major changes in the forms and models of war. In this paper, we overview Deep Learning's history and architecture. Then, we review related work and extensively describe Deep Learning in two primary military applications: intelligence operations and autonomous platforms. Finally, we discuss related threats, opportunities, technical and practical difficulties. The main findings are that Artificial Intelligence technology is not omnipotent and needs to be applied carefully, considering its limitations, cybersecurity threats and a strong need for human supervision in the OODA decision loop. Certain safeguard mechanisms are required at the strategic decision-making level. In this context, one of the most important aspects relates to the education, training and selection of military officer personnel.
Space Terrorism
Authors: Kozera Cyprian Aleksander , Bernat Paweł
Published: December 2024

The rationale behind this article is to address a critical gap in research: the evolving threat of space terrorism. As space assets increasingly become integral components of both civilian and military security systems, their vulnerability to attacks escalates. The democratization of space weaponry, including advanced cyber technologies, signals an escalating risk to these space assets and their terrestrial infrastructure. This threat extends beyond traditional space powers to include non-state actors, such as terrorist individuals and groups or various proxy forces, who were previously considered marginal threats.
This paper aims to lay a foundational framework by providing a historical overview of terrorism and security incidents involving outer space assets, their cyber systems, and ground support structures. This compilation serves as a basis for a deeper, methodological, and systematic examination of the nature and implications of space terrorism.
In order to define the initial concept of space terrorism, this paper draws on an extensive literature review. The selection of security breach cases within the broad spectrum of the space sector was guided by their novelty, diversity, and relevance, offering insights into the emerging phenomenon of space terrorism.

Authors: Kiszkowiak Łukasz , Kachel Stanisław , Kocjan Jakub , Maślanka Wojciech , Chudy Kamil , Zalewski Piotr
Published: December 2024

Recently, the so-called fifth generation (5th) aircraft have been introduced into the air forces, including the already implemented American F-22 and F-35, the Russian Su-57 and the Chinese-made J-20. Little is known about the latter, but the first squadron of Su-57 is being formed, which will ultimately replace the fourth generation (4th) Su-35 aircraft. Nowadays, in global political turmoil, the mentioned aircraft can pose a real threat to NATO defense systems. Therefore, the performance of Russian 4th and 5th generation combat aircraft has been evaluated. This is quite interesting because the aircraft comes from the same Sukhoi design bureau, and the experience of the predecessor was utilized to develop the new one. Thus, it was possible to assess the impact of modern technologies and design methods on the performance of the new generation combat aircraft. To evaluate the performance of the aircraft, the method based on the so-called Energy Maneuverability theory was used, based on the method cited, the Swiss company ALR Aerospace has developed a commercial program that is used in the process of modern aircraft design. The program was utilized in this study to determine the performance and assess the capabilities of the 4th and 5th generation combat aircraft. The essential aircraft’s data for the cited program were taken from relevant military portals, the aircraft manufacturer’s website, monographs on the design of combat aircraft, papers, and even confidential sources. However, some of the aerodynamic parameters were obtained by comparing the aircraft used by the Polish Air Forces (F-16 and MiG-29) with a similar mission profile or parameters and performance. The outcomes of work can be helpful, for example, at the stage of air threat assessment and simulations and anti-aircraft defense systems.
The Examination of Consumer Protection and Digital Lending Law and Practice in Tanzania
Authors: Mpogole Matunda
Published: December 2024

Widespread access to digital lending has epitomized a ground-breaking change in financial access. Digital lending offers extraordinary decreases in transaction costs and time wastage; in many countries, digital lending is far outstripping traditional lending. But the same characteristics of digital lending also have the ability to harm customers in the form of unfair competition in the digital credit market, unfair application of consumer protection rules (cybersecurity, consumer data protection and privacy), unfair payment and collection practice, risk of over-indebtedness, as well as different levels of oversight, especially if, consumer protection laws are limited or not strictly enforced. This study critically examines the challenges faced by consumers in digital lending platforms specifically app-based lending. The research explores the legal framework governing financial consumer protection in digital lending in Tanzania specifically app-based microfinance. The study will analyse the findings from the field and analyse the practical aspects of the law governing consumer protection in digital lending in Tanzania
Legal Quagmire of Arbitrary Arrests and Detention in Tanzania: Analysis of The Law and Practice
Authors: Simai Faki Hakim
Published: December 2024

This study is on the prevailing arbitrary arrest and detention in Tanzania.  While there is a possibility of a person committing a criminal offence, his right to be protected under the law remains intact and thereby he should not be subjected to arbitrary arrest and detention, torture, and inhuman or any degrading punishment. These protections are afforded in myriad legal instruments both at global, regional and domestic levels. However, in Tanzania, the act of arresting a person has been associated with a variety of disturbing forms of conduct, torture, inhuman and degrading treatments during the time of arrest and hence leading to arbitrary arrest and detention contrary to the clear constitutional protections accorded to the suspects by the law. There is perceived insufficiency prevailing in the existing laws on arrest and detention in Tanzania which attribute to the violation of basic and fundamental human rights during arrest and detention in Tanzania. The insufficiencies include the laws giving overwhelming powers to arresting authorities, giving multiple authorities powers to arrest and detain, increased practices of arbitrary arrest and detention and overwhelming powers given to the DPP. On the other side, the study revealed that the perceived insufficiencies in the laws on arrest and detention in protecting human rights against abuse during arrest and detention have led to multiple legal effects or consequences such as delays in the prosecution of cases, denial of justice to the accused and victim of crime, denial of the constitutional right to bail, forum shopping by the prosecution, retracted and repudiated confessions and trial within trials

Introducción: El Síndrome Hemolítico Urémico Atípico (SHUa) se caracteriza por anemia hemolítica microangiopática, trombocitopenia e insuficiencia renal aguda, asociado a variaciones genéticas del sistema del complemento, como el gen THBD, responsable del 3-5% de los casos hereditarios. Reporte de caso: Una paciente con antecedentes de Síndrome Nefrótico desarrolló anemia persistente y trombocitopenia. Análisis mostraron actividad de ADAMTS 13 al 50%. Estudios genéticos revelaron variante en THBD asociada a disfunción del complemento. Discusión: La variante genética en THBD de nuestra paciente coincide con las encontradas y menos frecuentes para SHUa. La disfunción del complemento por ausencia de esta proteína explica la microangiopatía y afectación renal. Se inició Eculizumab tempranamente para prevenir progresión y mejorar el pronóstico. Conclusión: SHUa es heterogéneo con múltiples causas genéticas, incluyendo variaciones en THBD. Identificar estas variantes es crucial para guiar tratamientos específicos como Eculizumab, eficaz en inhibir la cascada patogénica del complemento. Diagnóstico genético precoz y manejo individualizado son clave en SHUa para mejores resultados a largo plazo.

Authors: Carrillo Gómez Michael , Rodríguez Santiago , Tinajero Lia
Published: December 2024

Introducción: En Panamá, el porcentaje de la población adulta vacunada contra COVID-19 contrasta con la registrada para menores de 5 años. Para mediados de 2023, la cobertura vacunal en este grupo era de 3.1% con la primera dosis, 0.7% con la segunda y no se tenían datos para la tercera dosis. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, transversal, cuantitativo con muestreo por conveniencia en el Hospital del Niño Dr. José Renán Esquivel (HDNJRE), Panamá. Se realizó un análisis estadístico simple utilizando distribuciones de frecuencia. Se determinó la fuerza de asociación entre las variables a estudiar y la intención de los padres de vacunar contra COVID-19 a sus hijos menores de 5 años mediante la prueba de desigualdad relativa (OR) con nivel de significancia del 95% y precisión de 0.05, previa verificación de la significancia estadística a través de la prueba X2. Resultados: La disposición a vacunar contra COVID-19 a los menores de 5 años resultó en un limitado 34.2%. El ingreso familiar mensual, la información recibida por redes sociales, las experiencias previas con vacunas, insuficientes campañas de divulgación, la percepción de necesidad de vacunar, desconfianza en la seguridad y el temor a efectos adversos, resultaron barreras para la vacunación. Conclusiones: La disposición a vacunar menores de 5 años contra COVID-19 en Panamá está condicionada mayormente por factores de percepción que requieren ser abordados con estrategias de promoción de la salud que vayan dirigidas a minimizar el impacto que tienen estos condicionantes en la cobertura vacunal.

In modern high-strength concrete, steel fibers are commonly added to the concrete mix to improve its mechanical properties and structure. The steel fibers typically have a specific length and are randomly distributed to increase the tensile and bonding strength of concrete structures. However, the presence of steel fibers can impact the propagation of ultrasonic waves in concrete, causing alterations in ultrasonic wave transmission characteristics and potentially affecting the ability to assess the quality and safety of construction projects. A successfully produced high-strength concrete (> 60 MPa) from cement, sand, silica fume, and superplasticizer. Using this concrete mix, the authors fabricated beam specimens with dimensions of 150 × 150 × 600 mm for both cases with and without steel fiber reinforcement. Based on the Time-of-Flight Diffraction (TOFD) ultrasonic testing method, the authors conducted a series of experiments on high-strength concrete beam specimens. The results of ultrasonic wave propagation experiments indicated that the presence of steel fibers at a 2% content increased the time of wave propagation. On the other hand, curing conditions, specimen maintenance time, and transmission path distance affected the ultrasonic wave propagation time in high-strength concrete. Understanding the influence of steel fiber content on the propagation time of ultrasonic waves in high-strength concrete can contribute to improving the inspection and quality assessment processes of construction projects. Additionally, it helps enhance the understanding of the properties of high-strength concrete reinforced with steel fibers.

The study focuses on the prevalence of road traffic accidents in Vietnam, particularly along national highways, which are frequent and severe. Specifically, it examines National Highway 1A passing through Thanh Hoa province, utilizing statistics and geographic information systems (GIS) to identify high-risk areas. Data from road traffic incidents spanning from 2020÷2023 were used to analyze spatial autocorrelation, kernel density estimation (KDE), and Getis-Ord Gi* hotspot analysis. Spatial autocorrelation assessed the autocorrelation of incidents, while KDE visualized hotspot clusters. Meanwhile, Getis-Ord Gi* hotspot analysis determined the statistical significance of incident hotspot locations. The analysis revealed a higher concentration of hotspots in the northern section of the national highway compared to the southern section. Notably, the section passing through Thanh Hoa city center, Hau Loc, and Hoang Hoa districts exhibited very high traffic density. Hotspots identified through Getis-Ord Gi* statistics aligned with those detected using KDE. Furthermore, several hotspots were concentrated at bends in the national highway, often lacking warning signs despite high traffic density. The study’s findings serve as valuable references for authorities, enabling them to implement timely intervention measures such as infrastructure improvements or enhanced law enforcement to address issues and provide warnings regarding road traffic incident risks.

Sıfatlar, herhangi bir dilin anlatım gücünü ve zenginliğini besleyen temel yapı taşları arasında yer alır. Dilin can damarlarından biri sayılan sıfatlar, soyut veya somut isimlere derinlik ve netlik katarak, onları okuyucunun veya dinleyicinin zihninde canlandırılmasını sağlar. Sıfatlar olmadan, dünya boz ve belirsiz bir tasvirden ibaret kalacaktır. Sıfatlar, sadece nesneleri tanımlamakla kalmaz, aynı zamanda duyguları ve hisleri de ifade etmede önemli bir rol oynar. Kısacası, sıfatlar, yazarların ve konuşmacıların duygusal tonlarını ve niyetlerini daha etkili bir şekilde aktarmalarına imkân tanıdığı görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Roald Dahl'ın çocuk edebiyatı eserlerinin en önemlisi sayılabilecek Charlie’nin Çikolata Fabrikası adlı eserinde kullanılan sıfatlar, dilin zenginliğini ve anlatım gücünü nasıl etkilediği bağlamında incelenmiştir. Dahl'ın fantastik dünyasını ve renkli karakterlerini oluşturmadaki başarısının ardında, ustaca kullandığı sıfatların önemli bir payı olduğu açıktır. Çalışma kapsamında, eserde geçen sıfatlar, niteleme ve belirtme sıfatları olarak iki ana bölüm altında toplanmıştır. Çözümlemeler sonucunda, eserde toplam 393 niteleme sıfatı ve 253 belirtme sıfatı tespit edilmiştir. Belirtme sıfatları kendi içinde işaret, sayı ve belgisiz sıfatlar olarak üçe ayrılmıştır. İlginç bir şekilde, eserde herhangi bir soru sıfatına rastlanmamıştır. Bu bulgular, Charlie’nin Çikolata Fabrikası adlı eserde sıfatların dilsel zenginliği ve anlatım gücünü artırmada ne kadar etkili bir şekilde kullanıldığını göstermektedir. Dahl'ın meydana getirdiği büyülü dünyanın ve unutulmaz karakterlerin canlılığında, sıfatların kullanımının büyük önemi olduğu görülmüştür.

Democracy essentially provides space for individual freedom, including the freedom to choose one's way of life. In the era of globalization, democracy presents significant challenges and opportunities, particularly for the younger generation, in preserving local wisdom amidst the increasingly strong currents of global influence. Globalization itself is evidence of the world's ongoing progress and interconnectedness in various aspects. The application of local wisdom values is an effort to minimize the negative impacts of globalization in this modern era. However, the impact of globalization can become a boomerang that threatens the younger generation if it is not grounded in awareness and the importance of preserving the values upheld within their community. The method used in this research involves quantitative data analysis through the use of Google Forms containing a mix of open and closed-ended questions for data collection. The findings of the study reveal that young people face pressure to conform to global culture through social media and technology, which often erodes their understanding of local wisdom. Thus, democracy provides space to accommodate cultural plurality and build collective awareness of the importance of preserving local traditions amidst the global currents.
