An Automatic Non-Destructive External and Internal Quality Evaluation of Mango Fruits based on Color and X-ray Imaging with Machine Learning and Deep Learning Based Classification Models
Authors: Vani Ashok  , Bharathi R K  , Sheela N
Published: September 2023

Quality evaluation of food products, agricultural produce to be specific, has gained momentum from past few decades due to the increased awareness among consumers across the world.  This has resulted in the increased emphasis on the development and use of quality assessment techniques in food industry. Moreover, there is a need to automate the quality monitoring of agricultural produce like fruits and vegetables which is otherwise done manually in developing countries hence labor intensive, time consuming and subjective in nature. This paper presents an empirical analysis to build a rapid, robust, real-time, non-destructive computer vision based quality assessment model for mango fruits. The work employs the automatic disease classification of mango fruits based on machine and deep learning models. Firstly, the dataset of colored mango fruits images with 2279 images falling into three classes and another dataset of soft X-ray images of mango fruits with 572 images belonging to two quality classes are developed for detecting external and internal defects, respectively. The multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP NN) with two hidden layers, which may be considered as the starting point for deep learning technique, is proposed as machine learning model to classify the color images of mango fruits into one of three external quality classes with 95.1% accuracy and also to classify the soft X-ray images into two internal quality classes with 97.5% accuracy. In order to step out of feature engineering, actual deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) models, a customized CNN model and pre-trained CNN models, VGGNet (VGG16) and DenseNet121 were also explored for mango disease classification. The maximum validation accuracy of custom CNN was found to be with 91.52% and 98.7% for color and augmented X-ray images, respectively. The classification accuracy of pre-trained models were found to be reasonably good for the color images but exhibited high variability in results and made it difficult to draw a general conclusion for the proposed datasets. However, the proposed MLP NN model based on few basic intensity and geometric features and also the proposed customized CNN model were found to be the best models and they outperform the state of the art reported in the literature.
Stability of constitutional structures and identity amidst ‘political settlement’: lessons from Kenya and Israel
Authors: Roznai Yaniv , Okubasu Duncan M.
Published: September 2023

In 2021, two dramatic judgments were handed down in Kenya’s Court of Appeals (CoA) and the Israeli Supreme Court. In Kenya, the CoA upheld a ruling from the High Court that had found the Constitution Amendment Bill of 2020 – aimed to implement the Building Bridges Initiatives (BBI) – unconstitutional and void, inter alia, for violating the basic structure of the constitution. Politically, this was a blow to the BBI initiative, a key project for President Uhuru Kenyatta and opposition leader Raila Odinga. It is assumed that the real purpose of the initiative, beside ‘reconciliation’, was expansion of executive power by allowing both leaders to form a coalition for the sake of winning the 2022 general elections.

About the same time, in Israel, after the March 2020 election did not lead to a clear result that would allow one of the two major competing parties to form a coalition, an agreement to form a unity government of the two was reached. Yet, in light of a deep distrust between the parties, a strong legal anchoring was needed. This led to a major constitutional amendment that transformed the system of government and established a ‘rotating government’ model which created a new position of ‘Alternate Prime Minister’ alongside the serving prime minister. This tailor-made constitutional reform served a political purpose of the two leaders to form a government.

In both countries, the sought constitutional change was challenged before courts. Yet, while in Kenya, courts stopped the constitutional transformation, the Israeli court did not intervene. This article reviews both case studies in order to draw broad lessons on how political settlement may overcome constitutional rigidity and abuse the amending process for dismemberment of the constitution, and how courts may function as a veto institution that can be a useful countermeasure against radical change to constitutional structures and identity.
Conservative Pedagogy and Contemporary Polish Pedagogical Thought
Authors: Śliwerski Bogusław
Published: September 2023

The subject of the analysis is the state of metatheoretical research concerning contemporary conservative thought in the pedagogical sciences. The lack of a philosophical syntheses of the essence of conservatism, which could provide the basis for the development of conservative pedagogy, results in the need to develop a theoretical map of thought in order to be able to recognize its different traditions and trends. The author justifies the need for synthetic research in order to create a clear map of the geography of conservative pedagogical thought, its representatives, and key publications for Polish teachers. The article also presents a critical assessment of the current state of research and research methods in this field since Poland’s political transformation of 1989. The author demands that conservatism be included in studies of pedagogical thought, to make sure it is not merely being used in ideological disputes and to ensure that its essential value is considered in the process of nurturing and educating young generations.

Przedmiotem analizy jest stan badań metateoretycznych, które dotyczą współczesnej myśli konserwatywnej w naukach pedagogicznych. Brak filozoficznych syntez istoty konserwatyzmu, które są podstawą rozwoju pedagogiki konserwatywnej, skutkuje koniecznością opracowania mapy teoretycznej myśli, by możliwe było rozpoznanie rożnych jej tradycji i nurtów. Autor uzasadnia potrzebę prowadzenia badań syntetycznych, by powstała zrozumiała dla polskich nauczycieli mapa geografii pedagogicznej myśli konserwatywnej, jej przedstawicieli i kluczowych publikacji, a także prezentuje krytycznie dotychczasowy stan i metody badań w tym zakresie po 1989 roku. Autor upomina się o uwzględnienie w opracowaniach myśli pedagogicznej konserwatyzmu, by nie był on wykorzystywany do prowadzenia sporów ideologicznych, ale uwzględniał istotną jego wartość w procesie wychowania i kształcenia młodych pokoleń.

Authors: Al-Heety Emad A.M.
Published: September 2023

Statistical and data mining techniques (DMTs) are applied to an earthquakes catalogue of Iraq to study the spatial distribution pattern of earthquakes over the period from 1900 to 2010. The employed techniques are Quadrant Account Analysis (QCA), Tree-clustering, k-means Clustering, Association rules, and Linear Regression. Results of QCA showed that the pattern of earthquake occurrence beneath Iraq was spatially clustered. According to results of application of tree-clustering, earthquakes were grouped into nine clusters depending on degree of similarity between events. Results K-means clustering confirmed results of tree-clustering. Application of association rules failed to generate association rules between the earthquakes parameters (location, depth and magnitude, ...etc.). A weak relationship between depth and magnitude was the result of application of linear regression.

Published: September 2023

Introduction: Major abdominal emergency surgery (MAES) patients have a high risk of mortality and complications. The time-sensitive nature of MAES necessitates an easily calculable risk-scoring tool. Shock index (SI) is obtained by dividing heart rate (HR) by systolic blood pressure (SBP) and provides insight into a patient’s haemodynamic status. We aimed to evaluate SI’s usefulness in predicting postoperative mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), requirements for intensive care unit (ICU) and high-dependency monitoring, and the ICU length of stay (LOS).

Method: We retrospectively reviewed 212,089 MAES patients from January 2013 to December 2020. The cohort was propensity matched, and 3960 patients were included. The first HR and SBP recorded in the anaesthesia chart were used to calculate SI. Regression models were used to investigate the association between SI and outcomes. The relationship between SI and survival was explored with Kaplan-Meier curves.

Results: There were significant associations between SI and mortality at 1 month (odds ratio [OR] 2.40 [1.67–3.39], P<0.001), 3 months (OR 2.13 [1.56–2.88], P<0.001), and at 2 years (OR 1.77 [1.38–2.25], P<0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed significant relationships between SI and mortality at 1 month (OR 3.51 [1.20–10.3], P=0.021) and at 3 months (OR 3.05 [1.07–8.54], P=0.034). Univariate and multivariate analysis also revealed significant relationships between SI and AKI (P<0.001), postoperative ICU admission (P<0.005) and ICU LOS (P<0.001). SI does not significantly affect 2-year mortality.

Conclusion: SI is useful in predicting postopera-tive mortality at 1 month, 3 months, AKI, postoperative ICU admission and ICU LOS.
Impact of an ageing population on the intensive care unit

Published: September 2023

Intensive care unit (ICU) resources are scarce and expensive, and deciding if intensive care is suitable for older patients involves complex clinical reasoning, ethical challenges and cost considerations. Although some studies show that ICU mortality increases with age, others suggest that age alone is not predictive of poor prognosis, and other factors such as frailty, premorbid functional status and comorbidities could be important.

With the exponential growth in devices and services being added to networks, we are also witnessing an increase in the volume and complexity of threats, urging an increased efficiency in network intrusion detection systems which primarily rely on pattern matching to identify malicious activity on the network. In this literary review of pattern matching techniques in network intrusion detection, we explore the limitations and the research carried out in both signature-based and anomaly-based intrusion detection systems to overcome them. It focuses on the performance improvements in signature-based intrusion detection systems achieved through methodologies and technologies like regular expressions, Hyperscan, RE2, Flashtext, a generalized Aho-Corasick algorithm, usage of Bloom filters and payload sampling. It also covers the usage of machine learning techniques, including genetic algorithms, Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Improved Self-Adaptive Bayesian Algorithm (ISABA), which are used to detect anomalous behavior and identify potential threats in a network in anomaly-based network intrusion detection to assist the security analysts carry out their job functions. Additionally, this review explores the integration of the MITRE ATT&CK framework and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems in network intrusion detection as this framework provides a structured and standardized approach for analyzing the tactics and techniques used by attackers to classify them, while SIEM systems enable the correlation of threat activity across multiple sources, allowing for a more comprehensive and accurate view of the network security. Overall, this literary review provides insights into the state-of-the-art techniques and frameworks used in Network Intrusion Detection based on Pattern Matching, highlighting the significant improvements in performance and detection capabilities.

Published: September 2023

Background: Obstetric blood loss and impaired perineal integrity are well-known maternal birth outcomes that contribute substantially to maternal morbidity and mortality post-delivery. This study aimed to assess the magnitude and associated predictors of blood loss and perineal integrity among women giving birth at Serengeti district hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional study design using hospital records of deliveries from Jan –Dec 2021. Systematic sampling was employed for recruitment. A partograph and delivery register were used as tools for obtaining relevant data for this study. SPSS v20 was used for data analysis. A p-value was considered significant at 95% CI and the strength of association was measured using an odds ratio. Results: Five percent (95% CI: 3.1-7.6%) of participants developed severe obstetric blood loss post-delivery. The overall mean (SD) of blood loss was 234.70±173.901. About 21.0% (95% CI: 17.1–25.3) developed impaired perineal integrity. The multivariate model showed those who had SVD (AOR 0.105, P=0.004) were less associated with severe obstetric blood loss. Moreover, gravida 2 to 4 (AOR 4.134, P=0.050), and abnormal labor (AOR 3.670, P=0.022) were positively associated with impaired perineal integrity compared to their reference category. Urban residency (AOR 0.527, P=0.034) was a protective factor of impaired perineal integrity. Conclusion: Magnitude and predictors for both obstetric blood loss post-delivery and perineal integrity were identified. Mentoring healthcare providers working in the maternity ward is needed to promote timely identification of risk factors and improve perineal care and maintain good practices during delivery.

La publicación en 1923 de Vers une architecture constituyó un hito en el debate arquitectónico contemporáneo. Tanto por la composición y maquetación –con su innovador modo de establecer el diálogo entre texto e imágenes- como por su propio contenido teórico, el libro de Le Corbusier constituía la primera gran recapitulación de sus radicales ideas sobre la naturaleza de la arquitectura moderna en el mundo industrial. Sus tesis fueron luego ampliamente desarrolladas por el arquitecto en otros muchos escritos y objeto de apasionadas lecturas y encendidos debates, hasta el punto de convertirse en uno de los libros de arquitectura más influyentes del siglo XX.
Hoy, cuando se cumplen cien años de su aparición, es un buen momento para preguntarse en qué medida siguen siendo hoy pertinentes los interrogantes que Le Corbusier se planteaba en 1923. Para ello, LC. Revue de recherches sur Le Corbusier ha convocado una amplia encuesta solicitando a un grupo selecto de arquitectos contemporáneos e historiadores de la arquitectura un breve texto de respuesta a la siguiente doble pregunta:
¿Qué influencia tuvo en su itinerario personal la lectura de Vers une architecture?
¿Considera que la obra, además de ser un referente histórico esencial, puede todavía interpelar de algún modo al arquitecto contemporáneo? ¿En qué sentido?
A influência da cultura, do RH e da liderança sobre a gestão do conhecimento
Authors: Escrivão Giovana , Da Silva Sergio Luis
Published: September 2023

A pesquisa tem como objetivo descrever a influência da cultura, da gestão de pessoas e da alta gerência sobre o desenvolvimento da gestão do conhecimento. Este estudo realizou um levantamento de dados com 125 gestores de uma empresa de base tecnológica nacional e internacionalmente reconhecida pelos altos índices de inovação. Os resultados revelam que: a cultura se torna mais colaborativa e voltada à aprendizagem ao longo dos estágios; a recompensa, aspecto altamente citado pela literatura, como essencial ao desenvolvimento da gestão do conhecimento, apresentou uma queda no estágio dois; e a coordenação e o incentivo da alta gerencia influenciam decisivamente o desenvolvimento do estágio dois. A pesquisa contribui ao identificar e descrever, empiricamente pela primeira vez, a influência da cultura, da gestão de pessoas e da alta gerência sobre o desenvolvimento das práticas de gestão do conhecimento.

Objetivo: investigar o desenvolvimento das atividades do matriciamento entre Núcleo Ampliado de Saúde da Família, Centro de Atenção Psicossocial e Equipes da Estratégia de Saúde da Família. Método: Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa, desenvolvida por meio da perspectiva da Análise Institucional no município de Currais Novos interior do Rio Grande do Norte no período de junho a setembro de 2017. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com 22 profissionais dos referidos serviços de saúde. Resultado: Da Análise de Conteúdo realizada a partir das narrativas produzidas pelas entrevistas, foram identificadas três categorias: Fragilidades e dificuldades na prática do acolhimento em saúde mental; Apoio Matricial e os caminhos trilhados; Fragmentação da atenção e desresponsabilização do cuidado. Conclusão: Foi possível identificar que o apoio matricial ainda necessita que um longo caminho seja trilhado para que o seu modo de conduzir e articular as demandas e equipamentos seja de fato como preconizado.

Purpose

To detect tuberculosis (TB) at an early stage by analyzing chest X-ray images using a deep neural network, and to evaluate the efficacy of proposed model by comparing it with existing studies.

Material and methods

For the study, an open-source X-ray images were used. Dataset consisted of two types of images, i.e., standard and tuberculosis. Total number of images in the dataset was 4,200, among which, 3,500 were normal chest X-rays, and the remaining 700 X-ray images were of tuberculosis patients. The study proposed and simulated a deep learning prediction model for early TB diagnosis by combining deep features with hand-engineered features. Gabor filter and Canny edge detection method were applied to enhance the performance and reduce computation cost.

Results

The proposed model simulated two scenarios: without filter and edge detection techniques and only a pre-trained model with automatic feature extraction, and filter and edge detection techniques. The results achieved from both the models were 95.7% and 97.9%, respectively.

Conclusions

The proposed study can assist in the detection if a radiologist is not available. Also, the model was tested with real-time images to examine the efficacy, and was better than other available models.
Digestive Jurisprudence Restated: On Breakfast and Digestion as Bias-Arousers
Authors:   Bocconi University, Milan, Italy, Tuzet Giovanni
Published: September 2023

“Digestive Jurisprudence” is the view that judicial decisions depend on what judges had for breakfast. The view is usually associated with Frank’s version of Legal Realism. The paper shows that, disputable as it is, that view comes from the philosophical background of Peirce’s pragmatism and the legal background of Holmes’ prediction theory. Peirce’s pragmatism was an account of concepts in terms of their predictable consequences. Holmes’ prediction theory was an account of law in terms of predictions of what judges will do. And Legal Realism focused on judicial behavior as determined by various factors including, in its most extreme and provocative version, breakfast quality and digestive processes. The paper does not ascertain whether the digestive view is true (to some extent); rather, it makes the working hypothesis that breakfast quality, or digestion quality, is not a sufficient condition of a certain outcome but, most likely, a bias-arouser.
Canonical Jurisprudence in the Kingdom of Bohemia in the Middle Ages
Authors:   Faculty of Arts, Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, Slovakia, Krafl Pavel
Published: September 2023

During the High and Late Middle Ages, canon law played a crucial role. This study provides an overview of ecclesiastical legal scholarship in the Czech lands, i.e. in Bohemia (in the Archdiocese of Prague) and in Moravia (in the Diocese of Olomouc). The development of a legal jurisprudence went hand in hand with the development of ecclesiastical administration in the second half of the 14th century and in the early 15th century, which evolved into a compact system. An important factor in this was the establishment of Prague University, including the Law Faculty, in 1348, and also, in particular, the establishment of the separate Prague Law University in 1372. Amongst the major canonists who left work behind were Štěpán of Roudnice, Bohuslav of Krnov, Kuneš of Třebovle, Mikuláš Puchník, and Jan of Jesenice, amongst others.
Proširena Srbija: prilog razmišljanju o alternativnom državotvornom rešenju iz 1918. godine
Authors:   Pravni fakultet Univerziteta u Beogradu, Srbija, Begović Boris
Published: September 2023

The paper aims to explore alternative statehood options for Yugoslavia’s unification in 1918 and assess their potential success for Serbian interests. It falls within the realm of counterfactual analysis. The study draws on the economic theory of optimal nation size, which examines the pros and cons of larger nations, particularly the challenges posed by cultural diversity resulting from ethnolinguistic and religious differences. Five statehood alternatives have been identified, involving various degrees of Serbia’s territorial expansion. Empirical evidence from the 1921 population census demonstrates that options leading to larger nation size would increase population heterogeneity. The research identifies an optimal solution that balances benefits and costs.
Šta je "autoplagijat"?
Authors:   Pravni fakultet Univerziteta u Beogradu, Srbija, Jovanović Miodrag
Published: September 2023

In today’s era of heightened sensitivity to plagiarism, self-plagiarism is gaining recognition as a distinct ethical concern within the global academic community. While plagiarism has undergone detailed conceptual analysis, the same cannot be said for self-plagiarism. This concise review seeks to address this gap by examining key aspects of this academic ethical issue, as outlined in Article 25 of the Code of Professional Ethics at the University of Belgrade. Through this conceptual analysis, it becomes apparent that the Code specifically condemns the narrower practice of “duplicate or dual publication” as ethically unacceptable. It is clear that self-plagiarism does not occur when an author transparently acknowledges their intention to republish or reuse their previously published or utilized work, including its constituent parts.
La contabilidad de los recursos humanos como punto de partida del concepto de capital intelectual
Authors: Martínez Ramos Miguel
Published: September 2023

La Contabilidad de los Recursos Humanos (CRH) irrumpió con fuerza en la literatura contable a mediados de los años 60. En el trabajo analizamos las diferentes etapas por las que atraviesa esta línea de investigación, así como las causas de su escasa aceptación. En la última década coexiste la investigación en CRH (con especial intensidad en los países escandinavos), con el despertar de un concepto nuevo: el Capital Intelectual (CI), que abarca todos los recursos intangibles de la empresa. En el trabajo exponemos el concepto de CI, distinguiendo sus componentes (entre los que está el capital humano), revisando algunos modelos de medición y explicando su utilidad. A continuación, reflexionamos sobre su vinculación con la CRH. Sin duda existen evidentes paralelismos entre ambos, pudiendo incluso considerarse que el CI amplía y abarca a la CRH. La necesidad de información sobre el capital humano justificó el nacimiento de la CRH. Así, las motivaciones y objetivos de la CRH quedan englobados en el CI que, además, considera las interrelaciones entre todos los intangibles de la empresa. Por otra parte, Roos et al. (1997) sitúan la CRH en las raíces conceptuales del CI. A pesar de la actual repercusión del CI, como ocurrió en su día con la CRH, las propuestas planteadas aún no han obtenido el reconocimiento normalizador.
