How to Use a Multi-Criteria Comparison Procedure to Improve Modeling Competitions.
Authors: Harman Jason L. , Yu Michael , Konstantinidis Emmanouil , Gonzalez Cleotilde
Published: March 2021

Modeling competitions are a promising method for advancing psychological science. In this commentary to Erev, Ert, Plonsky, Cohen, & Cohen (2017), we highlight how this promise could be enhanced through modifying competition structures to produce insights more directly in line with the goals of promoting psychological knowledge. We argue that a single criterion on which models are compared limits the diversity of models entered into competitions, restricting the number and type of insights that can be gained consequently. We propose an alternative competition structure with multiple evaluative criteria and outline a quantitative selection method for choosing a winner. Our proposed competition structure has the advantages of: a) increasing the diversity of models entered, b) incentivizing desirable qualities of models, c) disambiguating competition winners, and d) enhancing the impact and possible insights gained from competitions, all these while allowing flexibility for competition organizers to emphasize specific qualities of models.
Evidencia epidemiológica acerca del rol de la hostelería en la transmisión de la COVID-19: una revisión rápida de la literatura
Authors: Bilal Usama , Gullón Pedro , Padilla-Bernáldez Javier
Published: March 2021

Objective: To review the scientific epidemiologic evidence on the role of hospitality venues in the incidence or mortality from COVID-19. Methods: We included studies conducted in any population, describing either the impact of the closure or reopening of hospitality venues, or exposure to these venues, on the incidence or mortality from COVID-19. We used a snowball sampling approach with backward and forward citation search along with co-citations. Results: We found 20 articles examining the role of hospitality venues in the epidemiology of COVID-19. Modeling studies showed that interventions reducing social contacts in indoor venues can reduce COVID-19 transmission. Studies using statistical models showed similar results, including that the closure of hospitality venues is amongst the most effective measures in reducing incidence or mortality. Case studies highlighted the role of hospitality venues in generating super-spreading events, along with the importance of air flow and ventilation inside these venues. Conclusions: We found consistent results across studies showing that the closure of hospitality venues is amongst the most effective measures to reduce the impact of COVID-19. We also found support for measures limiting capacity and improving ventilation to consider during the re-opening of these venues.
Rule of Metrics
Authors: Kelkar Shreeharsh
Published: March 2021

In Metrics at Work: Journalism and the Contested Meaning of Algorithms, an ethnographic study of newsrooms, Angèle Christin walks the fine line between utopian and dystopian analyses of technology with a kind of rigorous empiricism. In these newsrooms, Christin finds web journalists using algorithmically mediated metrics (or “analytics”) that document “the preferences of their readers, the popularity of their articles, and the reactions of their followers” (pxiii). The book demonstrates conclusively that these analytics have had far-reaching impacts on how newsrooms operate but these may not be what we commonly assume: analytics software did not lead journalists to maximize their clicks by producing more standardized material for the lowest common denominator. Instead, journalists responded in complex ways, drawing on their traditions and craft to balance their conflicting goals, such as seeking approval from their audiences and peers, and producing “good” journalism while also making a living wage. Christin labels these conflicts as arising from journalists’ “click-based” versus “editorial” modes of evaluation. The metrics were thus symbols through which journalists debated and constructed their “algorithmic publics”; they inspired debate on what journalism was, who it was for, and what its relationship to other institutions of society might be.

Planning was reaffirmed after the collapse of the neoliberal economic doctrine (at the beginning of this century). The relations between the plan and the market are complementary and non-exclusive. The market is also planned and market spontaneity is suppressed. The planning of all the levels is primarily present in the Eurasian economies that are not in crisis. The plan is also a creativity space.

Increasingly, organizations are oriented towards groups to make decisions. This is because some contextual factors have undergone significant changes. Companies are operating in a competitive, dynamic and complex environment, having to face with unstructured and non-programmed decisions. Organizations are also oriented towards participatory processes in order to benefit from the important advantages that these processes offer. The main goal of the current research is to understand if there is a correlation between group decision-making propensity, age and gender. The motivation for the current research starts from the consideration that the degree of preference for group decision-making processes determines the contribution and commitment of the members, with important consequences on the decisions’ effectiveness. The processing and analysis of the collected data indicate that adults prefer group decision-making processes more than young people and women prefer group decision-making processes less than men.

It has to be admitted that the idea decentralized construction logistics, respectively construction site logistics is strongly contested in the scientific literature at the moment. This paper deals with the advantages of decentralized construction logistics. The prevailing view in research is that centralized construction logistics is preferable to decentralized ones. Based on a systematic review of the literature, it is shown that decentralized construction logistics can be advantageous due to the specialization of the construction, different degrees of professionalization, difficulties in cooperation, avoidance of costs and technological inconsistencies and properties as well as with regard to the objects of the construction process.

NEW ROLE OF RELIGIONS IN THE PANDEMIC CONTEXT
Authors:   Department of Political Science- University of Studies Aldo Moro- Bari Italy, Santoro Roberta
Published: March 2021

The global pandemic produces rules that impose suffering on religions, which must reconsider their social role now. This entails the need to examine the rules of coexistence within societies, where Coronavirus phenomenon raises existential and religious questions. We need to look at the condition of the state of religious freedom – in the European context – referring to globalization in a climate of restriction of personal, social, and religious freedom. Complexity has undermined the role of states, the delimitation of competences regarding relations with religions. For them, building community and associations relations where religious freedom is expressed is fundamental. Believers are therefore bearers of specific interests. This particular situation calls for a new function for religions, focused on the value of the person who can lead to the common identity and guarantee «those values of social and community integration that seem particularly discovered today».
LEGAL RESTRICTIONS DUE TO CORONAVIRUS AND RIGHT TO RELIGIOUS FREEDOM
Authors:   University of Bari Aldo Moro, Viale de Laurentis 17, Bari, Italy, Dammacco Gaetano
Published: March 2021

The current pandemic has created new scenarios and problems regarding religious freedom. To combat the spread of the coronavirus, governments have ordered social distance and total closure of numerous activities including the celebration of sacred rites without consulting religious authorities. Religions have accepted the restrictions with a sense of responsibility, but the sacrifice of religious freedom for the faithful has been great. In addition, the effects of the pandemic together with the negative effects of globalization will continue over time, generating economic and social damage. In addition to prayer, religions have invited the faithful to a social commitment to reduce the critical issues of the crisis and specially to combat poverty. It is therefore necessary to analyze some topics: critical issues relating to the limitation of the right to religious freedom; what problems arise in the relations between powers (civil and religious); what problems arise in relations between state and religions; how the constitutional rights of the faithful and citizens are protected; what are the legal problems internal to the different religions, considering that the judgment on the validity of online rites is different; what is the role of religions in the face of the economic crisis. For the first time since the beginning of the human rights era, there has been a serious conflict between human rights, especially for the greater protection given to the right to health. The right to religious freedom also suffered, but it must be considered that the protection of the right to religious freedom also contributes to the recovery of a „good” economy, which can counteract the negative effects of the pandemic and globalization. We must build a personalist humanism, which the alliance between religions can promote. A humanism that respects the rights and dignity of man, against the logic of profit, and that rewrites the ethical rules of the economy. Looking at the post-pandemic, religions can be the soul of the ethical and moral rules that must guide the „good economy” in society to overcome social and economic differences.

The article examines whether young people are at a greater risk of unemployment than the general population in the post-pandemic crisis. First, the authors draw attention to youth unemployment as a structural problem even before the pandemic, making young people more vulnerable. Further, the paper analyses the age structure of employed in sectors most impacted by the pandemic. The results show that disproportionally high number of young people work in the most impacted sectors, hold less secure types of employment and are thus more vulnerable and at-risk of unemployment in post-pandemic crisis. However, the impact on young will most likely not be the same in all EU countries.

Geological structure of J2/1 layer of the Surgut arch in order to clarify the prospects of oil potential and justify geological exploration
Authors: Turabaeva A. V. , Belkina V. A.
Published: March 2021

Due to the high degree of production of oil reserves in Western Siberia, geological exploration has been carried out mainly on complex objects for the last 10 to 15 years. The complexity of the task increases because of the fact that the predictive properties of seismic data on such objects are not high. All this leads to low efficiency of geological exploration.

In order to increase the efficiency of geological exploration of complex objects, we have proposed a methodology, in which, based on the results of a comprehensive analysis of diverse geological and geophysical information, a model of the quality of hydrocarbon reserves has been built. The ranking of the zones of the quality map of reserves will justify the most effective strategy of geological exploration, that is, the strategy with the least risks. In proposed methodology, special attention is paid to assessing the economic impact of involving reserves in industrial development. Testing of the methodology on reservoir rocks of the J2/1 layer within the Surgut arch has showed its rather high forecast properties.

The Possibility of VAT Decentralization in Indonesia
Authors: Safitra Dhian Adhetiya , Khabibi Akhmad , Hanifah Afif
Published: March 2021

This research is conducted to find out the possibility of implementation of Value Added Tax as Indonesia local governmentâ€™s potential revenue. There are not many forms of state or local government revenue in Indonesia and to include Value Added Tax as local government source of income could help to boost the local economy. While the introduction of new taxes is always challenging, it is still possible to improve the performance of the tax administration and thereby increase revenues by improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the tax administration. This paper is using literature review of other countries experience that already implements the policy of state value-added tax in their economy from a legal standpoint and how it will fit into Indonesiaâ€™s condition. This research shows that some rules and regulations need to be prepared in order to both implement and adjust to apply the state/local government Value Added Tax in Indonesia. Some approaches to improving the efficiency of tax administration have been pointed out in this report. Sharing of the VAT could be implemented in ways that would raise the efficiency of tax administration, including through increased administrative responsibilities and motivation by subnational government revenue officials.

Published: March 2021

In a democratic society, mass media and political system have a strong bond with each other. Big media powerhouses attempt to develop linkages with political parties for economic benefits. These parties' linkages with media houses may have affected news items' representation of issues from both positive and negative reporting angles. An eminent scholar of agenda-setting through McCombs et al. (1997), pointed out that media has great power to set the agenda of public and political parties also actively engages the media houses to advance their elections. This study attempts to learn the news representation of issues during the General Elections (GE) of 2018 in Pakistan. This present study employed a content analysis method to investigate news issues coverage and representation in 10 mainstream newspapers based on readership size. The findings suggest that news items representation of issues among newspapers are highly polarized on the basis of sympathize towards their favourite political parties.
Understanding Gender-Based Violence Prevention among Young Women : Youth Workers Perspective?
Authors:   Tshwane University of Technology, Andrew Chauke Thulani
Published: March 2021

This study focused on the expertise of youth workers in preventing violent acts with special focus on young women. A qualitative research approach was employed in this study. Ten youth workers were purposefully sampled to participate in this study. An unstructured interview schedule was also used to gather data. An exploratory research design was used to explore the experience of the participants. Data were analysed using thematic coding. Violence against young women in South Africa is a widespread problem that affect young women’s capabilities. South Africa is also facing a high prevalence of gang rape and young women are the most affected group. The findings reflect that youth workers prevent violence against young women by offering young people, both male and female, the following interventions: building youth self-esteem, health education and empowerment, soft skills programmes and building youth resilience. The study recommends that the Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities establish a funding directorate that will focus on funding youth workers led non-profit organisations (NPOs) that have holistic youth programmes that mainly address violence against young women and social behaviour change programmes among young men.

The purpose of this article was to explore challenges facing the age-old custom of circumcision in the Eastern Cape. The paper looked into the catastrophic deaths and identify key strengths and weaknesses in the age-old custom. A qualitative approach was employed through the face-to-face interview of 10 initiated young men drawn from both urban and rural areas of the Province. The findings suggest that influences of modern male masculinity and other international actions in determining what is needed for initiation policies and practices for the Province are taken into account, along with the relevant findings from the interview component of the field research. This study concluded with a call for more research with a range of other factors to better understand how safe circumcision can be promoted in the Eastern Cape. This paper strongly suggests that initiation, as a societal matter, be treated as a matter of urgency.

Colon cancer prediction on histological images using deep learning features and Bayesian optimized SVM
Authors: Babu Tina , Singh Tripty , Gupta Deepa , Hameed Shahin
Published: March 2021

Colon cancer is one of the highest cancer diagnosis mortality rates worldwide. However, relying on the expertise of pathologists is a demanding and time-consuming process for histopathological analysis. The automated diagnosis of colon cancer from biopsy examination played an important role for patients and prognosis. As conventional handcrafted feature extraction requires specialized experience to select realistic features, deep learning processes have been chosen as abstract high-level features may be extracted automatically. This paper presents the colon cancer detection system using transfer learning architectures to automatically extract high-level features from colon biopsy images for automated diagnosis of patients and prognosis. In this study, the image features are extracted from a pre-trained convolutional neural network (CNN) and used to train the Bayesian optimized Support Vector Machine classifier. Moreover, Alexnet, VGG-16, and Inception-V3 pre-trained neural networks were used to analyze the best network for colon cancer detection. Furthermore, the proposed framework is evaluated using four datasets: two are collected from Indian hospitals (with different magnifications 4X, 10X, 20X, and 40X) and the other two are public colon image datasets. Compared with the existing classifiers and methods using public datasets, the test results evaluated the Inception-V3 network with the accuracy range from 96.5% - 99% as best suited for the proposed framework.
Fuzzy querying with SQL: Fuzzy view-based approach
Authors: Mama Rachid , Machkour Mustapha
Published: March 2021

Nowadays several works have been proposed that allow users to perform fuzzy queries on relational databases. But most of these systems based on an additional software layer to translate a fuzzy query and a supplementary layer of a classic database management system (DBMS) to evaluate fuzzy predicates, which induces an important overhead. They are not also easy to implement by a non-expert user. Here we have proposed a simple and intelligent approach to extend the SQL language to allow us to write flexible conditions in our queries without the need for translation. The main idea is to use a view to manipulate the satisfaction degrees related to user-defined fuzzy predicates, instead of calculating them at runtime employing user functions embedded in the query. Consequently, the response time of executing a fuzzy query statement will be reduced. This approach allows us to easily integrate most fuzzy request characters such as fuzzy modifiers, fuzzy quantifiers, fuzzy joins, etc. Moreover, we present a user-friendly interface to make it easy to use fuzzy linguistic values in all clauses of a select statement. The main contribution of this paper is to accelerate the execution of fuzzy query statements.
Approximations of pythagorean fuzzy sets over dual universes by soft binary relations
Authors: Bilal Muhammad Asim , Shabir Muhammad
Published: March 2021

Yager introduced the Pythagorean Fuzzy Set (PFS) to deal with uncertainty in real-world decision-making problems. Binary relations play an important role in mathematics as well as in information sciences. Soft binary relations give us a parameterized collection of binary relations. In this paper, lower and upper approximations of PFSs based on Soft binary relations are given with respect to the aftersets and with respect to the foresets. Further, two kinds of Pythagorean Fuzzy Topologies induced by Soft reflexive relations are investigated and an accuracy measure of a PFS is provided. Besides, based on the score function and these approximations of PFSs, an algorithm is constructed for ranking and selection of the decision-making alternatives. Although many MCDM (multiple criteria decision making) methods for PFSs have been proposed in previous studies, some of those cannot solve when a person is encountered with a two-sided matching MCDM problem. The proposed method is new in the literature. This newly proposed model solved the problem more accurately. The proposed method focuses on selecting and ranking from a set of feasible alternatives depending on the two-sided matching of attributes and determines a ranking based solution for a problem with conflicting criteria to help the decision-maker in reaching a final course of action.
Algorithmic and Computer Software for Determination of Thread Tension After Guide Large Curvacity

The conducted studies of the effect of the structure of the threads on the amount of tension when interacting with guides and working bodies of weaving machines and knitting machines, which have a large curvature in the zone of contact with the thread, established a mechanism for the process of increasing the tension of the thread after the guide by changing the radius of curvature of the guide and friction forces in the zone contact. It is proved that the increase in tension is explained by a change in the angle of coverage of the thread of a guide of large curvature, and for complex threads and yarns, the real angle of coverage will be greater than the calculated one, due to deformation of the thread diameter in the contact zone, and for monofilaments it is less than the calculated one due to bending stiffness. The sequential passage of the thread along the guides, from the entry zone to the formation zone of fabric and knitwear, leads to a stepwise increase in tension. In this case, the output parameter of the tension after the previous guide will be the input parameter for the subsequent guide, which makes it possible to use recursion when determining the tension in front of the formation zone. In this regard, research on the computer implementation of the algorithm for determining the thread tension on technological equipment using recursion should be considered relevant.

Fulfilling the rights of students to get educational services during the spread of the Corona Virus (COVID-19) is pursued through the implementation of Learning from Home policy. Parental involvement has a crucial influence on students’ involvement. This study aims to analyze and explain the involvement of students’ parents in implementation of learning from home in elementary schools in Tomohon City. This study applies a qualitative approach, case study methods, data collection techniques in the form of interviews, observation, and documentation as well as qualitative data analysis techniques adapted from interaction models. The results showed that the parents of students were very actively involved, especially from the mother's side, the forms of involvement were physical and non-physical, and there was personal communication between parents and teachers. In addition, a lack of readiness, cost, time, and teaching knowledge from students’ parents identified as an inhibiting factor which is overcome by providing opportunities for involvement, interpersonal communication and coordination and provision of incentives. Conclusions and suggestions for future research related to the importance of examining the parental involvement process of students are also presented at the end of the chapter.

Chicken meatballs are one of the processed products that are very popular and favored by the public because they taste good and are nutritious. One way to preserve chicken meatballs is using borax or formalin which is bad for health. Chitosan is a natural preservative that comes from shrimp and crab waste that can be used in the long term. This study aims to determine the effect of adding chitosan as a natural preservative for chicken meatballs stored at room temperature on the quality of chicken meatballs which include moisture content, pH value and protein content. This research method used a completely randomized design with long storage factors and the addition of chitosan. The data obtained were analyzed statistically using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Further test with the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) if there is a significant difference between treatments. The variables recorded and observed were moisture content, pH value and protein content of chicken meatballs at room temperature (25ᴼC). The water content of chicken meatballs up to 1.5% chitosan addition treatment showed the best consistency during the shelf life with an average value of 59.31%. The pH value of chicken meatballs with the addition of 2.5% chitosan on the 2nd and 4th day gave a good effect with pH values of 5.56 and 5.78, respectively. Protein content of chicken meatballs with the addition of chitosan 1.5% on the second day gave the effect of increasing the highest protein content up to 7.21%. Keywords: Chicken meatballs, Chitosan, Shelf life
