Authors: Ushakov Denis , Shatila Khodor
Published: November 2023

This paper studied the impact of engagement on turnover intention in United Arab Emirates Banks. In this study, data was acquired through sending a survey across 283 respondents. The data was acquired then analyzed using statistical software to examine the significance and the kind of link between the independent variables (Engagement, organizational support, and commitment) and the dependent variable (Turnover Intention). 

The survey findings showed that bank employees were influenced by their other workers' satisfaction, support, and dedication to their careers. We need to increase physical involvement, support, and commitment if we want employees to stay put, feel at ease in their work, and get their jobs done. A recent study found that certain employees' low morale might be attributed to their lack of an emotional investment in the bank.

A STUDY ON THE LEARNER AUTONOMY IN LEARNING ENGLISH TO CHINESE EFL STUDENTS IN SHANDONG INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY VOCATIONAL COLLEGE
Authors: Liu Xiangyu
Published: November 2023

In the context of learner autonomy, this study adopts mixed qualitative and quantitative research to investigate the EFL students’ autonomy in learning English at Shandong Institute of Science and Technology Vocational College, with the two research questions: (1) What is the current status of the autonomy in English language learning among Chinese EFL students in higher vocational institutions? (2)What are the main factors that affect the learner autonomy in learning English of EFL students in Chinese higher vocational institutions? With the stratified sampling method, one-hundred twenty-five sophomore students were randomlyselected from five majors to complete the close-ended questionnaire and 15 students among them were selected to participate in the focus-group interview. With a recovery rate of 92.8%,  125 pieces of the questionnaire were distributed and 116 pieces were valid. The data analysis tool adopts SPSS and thematic analysis. This study finds that the current EFL students have a relatively low level of autonomy in learning English and from the four dimensions of learner autonomy, the sociocultural dimension (M=2.87) is the lowest, compared to other three dimensions: political-philosophical (M=2.96), technical (M=2.99), psychological (M=3.21). The data from the focus group interviews presents the finding that students lack guidance from teachers to engage in autonomous learning. The personal correlation coefficient reflects that English teachers’ role is the largest factor in affecting students’ level of autonomy learning in English. Such findings recommend that English teachers in higher vocational institutions should notice their importance in the cultivation of learner autonomy in their students and adopt student-centred teaching based on learner autonomy.

Authors: Chen Wenli , Wan Wenshuang
Published: November 2023

Based on the theory of dynamic ability, this paper empirically analyzes the mechanism of entrepreneurial traitsand organizational resilience using 527 valid questionnaires of start-up entrepreneurs. It has been found that the higher the innovation trait of individual entrepreneurs, the higher their organizational stability; the higher their individual risk-taking trait, the higher their organizational resilience; and the higher their individual proactivity, the higher their organizational resilience. Environmental dynamics play a positive moderating role between entrepreneurial traitsand organizational resilience. A highly dynamic environment is more conducive for entrepreneurs to build a highly resilient organization with entrepreneurial qualities. New startups can use entrepreneurial traitsas an important way to increase organizational resilience, to empower organizational building, to improve the adaptability of the corporate environment, and to develop better in a dynamic environment.

Published: November 2023

This research examines the agricultural obstacles faced by farmers in Suphanburi Province, Thailand, and explores stakeholders' perceptions of these challenges. The study employs a mixed methodology, consisting of two parts. Firstly, qualitative research is conducted to identify the current obstacles faced by farmers in Suphanburi. Data is collected from 30 farmers in Suphanburi using snowball sampling, interviews, and cause and effect analysis. Secondly, quantitative research is conducted using primary data obtained from the qualitative research, employing a revised questionnaire. Data is collected from 4,779 stakeholders in Suphanburi Province, Thailand, using purposive sampling.

The agricultural challenges identified in this study reflect the concept of economic inequality in Thailand, which cannot be easily resolved by the farmers themselves. The main obstacles faced by farmers include limited knowledge of cultivation practices, availability of high-quality plant sources, volatile agricultural prices, limited access to knowledge and information technology, and a lack of accounting fundamentals. Additionally, farmers often face difficulties in negotiating with middlemen and have limited career opportunities. Moreover, well-educated individuals tend to migrate to developed cities, further depleting the knowledge pool available to farmers. Farmers primarily acquire knowledge from their families, neighbors, fellow villagers, and government officials.

Graph neural networks for dynamic modeling of roller bearings
Authors: Sharma Vinay , Ravesloot Jens , Taal Cees , Fink Olga
Published: November 2023

Machine learning has paved the way for the real-time monitoring of complex infrastructure and industrial systems. However, purely data-driven methods have not been able to learn the underlying dynamics and generalize them to operating conditions that have not been covered by the training datasets. Therefore, they have not been able to predict the long-term evolution of the system state of physical systems. Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have recently shown promising results in predicting the system state evolution over extended periods of time, owing to the loss terms derived from the underlying partial differential equations governing the dynamics of the systems. However, PINNs have limited generalization ability, i.e., a model trained on one type of boundary condition cannot generalize to other conditions. Moreover, the governing equations used for describing the dynamics of physical systems are an approximation of reality, which can lead to differences between the predictions and the actual roll-out of the trajectory. Recently, graph neural networks (GNNs) have been applied to predict the evolution of system dynamics. Due to the encoded inductive bias, they generalize well to systems with varying configurations and boundary conditions. Message-passing GNN comprises two parts that learn the interaction between nodes: an edge network that takes the translational invariant features between two nodes (for e.g., the distance vector) and generates a message, and a node network that takes the aggregated messages from all the neighboring nodes and produces a new node state. This process is repeated several times until the final node state is decoded as a required output. 

In the presented work, we propose to apply the framework of GNNs for predicting the dynamics of a rolling element bearing. The computational efficiency and generalizability of such a method enable the scalable use of a real-time digital twin to monitor the health state of a rotating machine. To this end, a GNN is used to mimic a dynamic spring-mass-damper model. Bearings consist of different interacting parts like the inner race, outer race, and multiple rolling elements. This interconnected and interacting architecture of a typical bearing is suitable to be modeled as a graph with nodes representing different components.

 We use the dynamic spring-mass-damper model to generate the training data for the GNN, where bearing components such as rolling elements, and inner and outer raceway are modeled as discrete masses. A Hertzian contact model is used to calculate the forces between these components. We evaluate the learning and generalization capabilities of the proposed GNN framework by testing bearing configurations different from the training configurations and comparing the performance to that of the spring-mass model.

Replacing Attention with Modality-wise Convolution for Energy-Efficient PPG-based Heart Rate Estimation using Knowledge Distillation
Authors: Kasnesis Panagiotis , Toumanidis Lazaros , Pagliari Daniele Jahier , Burrello Alessio
Published: November 2023

Continuous Hearth Rate (HR) monitoring based on photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors is a crucial feature of almost all wrist-worn devices. However, arm movements lead to the creation of Motion Artifacts (MA), affecting the performance of PPG-based HR tracking. This problem is commonly tackled by exploiting the recorded accelerometer data to correlate them with the PPG signal and eventually clean it. Thus, automatic fusion techniques based on Deep Learning (DL) algorithms have been proposed, but they are considered too large and complex to be deployed on wearable devices. The current work presents a novel and lightweight DL architecture, PULSE, comprised of temporal convolutions and feature-level multi-head cross-attention to improve sensor fusion's effectiveness. Moreover, we propose a relation-based knowledge distillation mechanism to pass PULSE's knowledge to a student network that utilizes modality-wise convolutions to replace the attention module and mimic the teacher's performance with 5x fewer parameters. The teacher and student are evaluated on the most extensive available dataset, PPG-DaLiA, with PULSE reducing the mean absolute error by 8.2% compared to the best state-of-the-art model while simultaneously reducing the inference latency by 1.6x. The student model is further compressed using post-training quantization and deployed on two microcontrollers, demonstrating its suitability for real-time execution, having a close-to-state-of-the-art MAE of 4.81 BPM (+0.40 BPM), but a 10.9x lower memory footprint of 37.9 kB, and consuming 45.9x lower energy (0.577 mJ).
Novel functionality based on photo-thermal effects in silicon photonic chips with 2D graphene oxide films
Authors: Moss David
Published: November 2023

On-chip integration of two-dimensional (2D) materials with unique structures and distinctive properties endow integrated devices with new functionalities and improved performance. With a high flexibility in modifying its properties and a strong compatibility with various integrated platforms, graphene oxide (GO) becomes an attractive 2D material for implementing functional hybrid integrated devices. Here, we demonstrate novel functionalities that go beyond the capabilities of conventional photonic integrated circuits, by harnessing the photo-thermal effects in 2D GO films integrated onto them. These include all-optical control and switching, optical power limiting, and non-reciprocal light transmission. The 2D layered GO films are on-chip integrated with precise control of their thicknesses and sizes. Benefitting from the broadband response of 2D GO films, all the three functionalities feature a very wide operational bandwidth. By fitting the experimental results with theory, we also extract the changes in material properties induced by the photo-thermal effects, which reveal interesting insights about 2D GO films. These results highlight the versatility of 2D GO films in implementing functional integrated photonic devices for a range of applications. 
Analisis Rechtsvacuum dalam Hukum Acara Pidana Indonesia: Penerapan Penghentian Penuntutan Berdasarkan Keadilan Restoratif
Authors: Ferels Arnott , Firmansyah Hery
Published: November 2023

Within the context of criminal procedural law in Indonesia, the Criminal Procedure Code (often referred to by its Indonesian acronym, KUHAP) serves as the primary normative foundation governing the prosecution process. While the KUHAP intrinsically emphasizes a retributive justice paradigm, the global legal thought trend is currently shifting towards restorative justice (RJ). A crucial element in the KUHAP that warrants further scrutiny in this context is the prosecutorial discretion concerning the discontinuation of prosecutions. This research zeroes in on the analysis of the legal void or rechtsvacuüm in relation to RJ within the KUHAP, encompassing a comparative study with RJ models applied in various jurisdictions, such as the United States, the Netherlands, Japan, and Germany. The primary objective is to identify aspects of the KUHAP, especially those related to prosecutorial discretion, that have the potential to be harmonized with RJ principles, thereby supporting the restoration of relationships among offenders, victims, and the community. The findings from this analysis are hoped to inspire a more adaptive and inclusive reform of the criminal justice system in Indonesia. As recommendations, this research suggests the formulation of more explicit regulations, enhancement of the capacity of law enforcement officers through education and training, and collaboration with countries that have a proven track record in implementing RJ.
Pode uma crença imoral ser epistemicamente racional?
Authors: Oliva de Oliveira Gustavo
Published: November 2023

Entre as diversas maneiras de avaliar a racionalidade e adequação de crenças, a relação entre duas dimensões se destaca: a dimensão epistêmica e a dimensão moral. Uma crença é epistemicamente racional quando é devidamente apoiada pela evidência e é moralmente adequada quando sua formação e manutenção é sensível a características morais das situações relevantes. De acordo com a visão tradicional, conhecida na literatura como purismo, a dimensão moral não impacta diretamente a dimensão epistêmica. Entretanto, existe discussão na literatura sobre a existência de crenças imorais que parecem, à primeira vista, epistemicamente racionais. Estas crenças que possuem conflito normativo levantam o desafio que é explicar como diferentes tipos de normatividade (moral e epistêmica) se relacionam. Teorias não-tradicionais defendem que existe infiltração de padrões morais na racionalidade epistêmica. A infiltração moral é a visão de que fatores morais podem afetar o status epistêmico de uma crença, por exemplo, subindo o limiar de evidência necessária para a crença racional. Esta ideia produz uma resposta natural ao desafio do conflito normativo: ele não existiria porque contextos morais tornam crenças imorais também epistemicamente irracionais, já que existe infiltração nos padrões evidenciais. Neste artigo, defenderei que crenças imorais não podem ser epistemicamente racionais, isto é, não pode existir conflito genuíno entre normatividade moral e epistêmica. Entretanto, isso não se deve ao fato de que existe infiltração moral na racionalidade epistêmica. Deve-se, sim, ao fato de que crenças imorais nunca respondem adequadamente à evidência. Elas são imorais porque insensíveis ao contexto moral e epistemicamente irracionais porque insensíveis à evidência disponível. Esta explicação é compatível com o purismo e, como é a opção teoricamente mais parcimoniosa, devemos adotar uma visão purista na epistemologia.

Advancements in Blockchain Based Architecture for E-Voting System
Authors: - Sumit Shevtekar , - Radhey Saykar
Published: November 2023

Blockchain based E-voting system can be revolution-
ary in terms of security and tamper proof, transparent elections
and hence empower the democracy. Blockchain E-voting is
already implemented at organisational level. But at state/national
level it faces challenges such as privacy, stability, latency etc. To
counter them we require advanced implementation techniques
from multiple disciplines. These techniques are 2-layer-solution,
sharding for scalability issue, optimizing consensus algorithm and
off-chain transaction for reducing latency, zero knowledge proof,
using multiple protocols for user privacy etc. General architecture
of blockchain is explained in details which combines election
creation, voter registration, voter transaction, tallying the results
and vote verification. We have discussed how integrating E-voting
with blockchain document verification system can be benificial.
It is complicated to implement at state, national level and need
additional research and implementation to make blockchain E-
voting acceptable in elections across the world. Through research
and innovation we can make blockchain voting mainstream.

For the present study the samples of stool were collected from urban and rural population of Meerut. The collected stool specimens were examined microscopically for the presence of eggs, cysts and trophozoites of intestinal parasites, using direct saline smear method for the confirmation of parasitic positive patients. The persons having any cysts/ova/trophozoite/whole parasite were treated as parasitic positive. Parasitic positive patients were subjected for hematological and biochemical examination. Blood samples from parasitic positive patients were collected for hematological and biochemical investigations. This study revealed that undernutrition and intestinal parasitic infection were public health problems among the rural and urban population. These results highlight the importance for integrated efforts to address under nutrition and parasitic infection. The prevalence of ancylostomiasis was found to be 36.4% in rural population as compared to (30.0%) the urban population of Meerut.
