Authors: Jakobson Anatol Yakovlevich , Batsun Natalia V.
Published: February 2021

Much that has been taking place in today’s Irkutsk is quite typical for cities of post-Soviet Russia. Irkutsk is suffering from drastic structural changes: in its macro-geographic position and international links, in the structure of production, in its postindustrial (non-production) functions, in the system of regional development. The total estimation of changes should be positive. But we can see a lot of losses. Some of them seem to be temporary, but there are also losses caused by the market character of the reforms themselves.

Authors: Apsari Diani , Guna Putra Wibisono Tegar
Published: March 2021

Anak adalah individu yang bertumbuh dan berkembang dengan berbagai emosi yang ada di sekitarnya. Di antaranya adalah rasa senang yang berkaitan erat dengan fenomena kegembiraan, rasa marah yang erat dengan rasa terganggu, serta rasa duka yang erat kaitannya dengan fenomena kehilangan. Merasakan kesedihan melalui kehilangan orang yang dicintai, menjadi peristiwa yang seringkali ditemui dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Sebagaimana orang dewasa, anak-anak juga dirasa perlu untuk memahami bagaimana ketika emosi, termasuk rasa duka tersebut muncul. Salah satu cara agar anak dapat memahami situasi tersebut adalah dengan mengenalkannya dalam buku cerita bergambar. Buku cerita bergambar yang baik adalah yang menerapkan pendekatan visual yang sesuai dengan perkembangan usia dan imajinasi anak, sesuai dengan aspek kognitif dan sosio-emosional. Pemahaman akan imajinasi anak dapat dilakukan dengan mengamati gambar yang mereka kreasikan, karena gambar anak merupakan visualisasi dari apa yang indra-indra mereka alami dan rasakan. Bahasa visual khas anak tersebut dapat ditemukan penerapannya dalam buku cergam anak, yang dalam objek penelitian ini adalah buku cergam anak berjudul “Little Grey”. Melalui kajian terhadap hasil kreasi gambar anak dan ilustrasi dalam buku cergam anak “Little Grey” serta kesesuaiannya terhadap perkembangan psikologi dan bahasa visual usia pembaca “Little Grey”, penelitian ini bermaksud menganalisa bagaimana hubungan bahasa visual antara gambar anak dalam mengungkapkan emosinya dan ilustrasi yang termuat dalam buku cergam anak, sehingga dapat menjadi bahan pertimbangan para kreator buku anak dalam membuat visual buku anak yang sesuai dengan perkembangan anak sebagai pembacanya.

Published: March 2021

Increasing number of internet users today, the use of e-commerce becomes a very vital need. One of the keys that holds the success of the e-commerce system is the recommendation system. Collaborative filtering is the popular method of recommendation system. However, collaborative filtering still has issues including data sparsity, cold start, gray sheep, and dynamic taste. Some studies try to solve the issue with hybrid methods that use a combination of several techniques. One of the studies tried to solve the problem by building 7 blocks of hybrid techniques with various approaches. However, the study still has some problems left. In the case of cold start new users, actually, the method in the study has handled it with matrix factorizer block and item weight. But it will produce the same results for all users so that the resulting personalization is still lacking. This study aims to map an overview of the themes of recommendation system research that utilizes bibliometric analysis to assess the performance of scientific articles while exposing solution opportunities to cold start problems in the recommendation system. The results of the analysis showed that cold start problems can be solved by utilizing social network data and graph approaches.

Reduced space-time and time costs Ising dislocation codes and arbitrary ancillas
Authors: Hastings Matthew B. , Geller A.
Published: February 2021

We propose two distinct methods of improving quantum computing protocols based on surface codes. First, we analyze the use of dislocations instead of holes to produce logical qubits, potentially reducing spacetime volume required. Dislocations\cite{dis2,dis} induce defects which, in many respects, behave like Majorana quasi-particles. We construct circuits to implement these codes and present fault-tolerant measurement methods for these and other defects which may reduce spatial overhead. One advantage of these codes is that Hadamard gates take exactly $0$ time to implement. We numerically study the performance of these codes using a minimum weight and a greedy decoder using finite-size scaling. Second, we consider state injection of arbitrary ancillas to produce arbitrary rotations. This avoids the logarithmic (in precision) overhead in online cost required if $T$ gates are used to synthesize arbitrary rotations. While this has been considered before\cite{ancilla}, we consider also the parallel performance of this protocol. Arbitrary ancilla injection leads to a probabilistic protocol in which there is a constant chance of success on each round; we use an amortized analysis to show that even in a parallel setting this leads to only a constant factor slowdown as opposed to the logarithmic slowdown that might be expected naively.

Suppose Bob is allowed to use only weak measurements, what would be the channel capacity? We formulate weak measurement theory in these terms and discuss the above question.
Quantum algorithms for nearest-neighbor methods for supervised and unsupervised learning
Authors: Wiebe Nathan , Kapoor Ashish , Svore Krysta M.
Published: February 2021

We present quantum algorithms for performing nearest-neighbor learning and $k$--means clustering. At the core of our algorithms are fast and coherent quantum methods for computing the Euclidean distance both directly and via the inner product which we couple with methods for performing amplitude estimation that do not require measurement. We prove upper bounds on the number of queries to the input data required to compute such distances and find the nearest vector to a given test example. In the worst case, our quantum algorithms lead to polynomial reductions in query complexity relative to Monte Carlo algorithms. We also study the performance of our quantum nearest-neighbor algorithms on several real-world binary classification tasks and find that the classification accuracy is competitive with classical methods.
W-like states are not necessary for totally correct quantum anonymous leader election
Authors: Norton Alexander
Published: February 2021

I show that $W$-like entangled quantum states are not a necessary quantum resource for totally correct anonymous leader election protocols. This is proven by defining a symmetric quantum state that is $n$-partite SLOCC inequivalent to the $W$ state, and then constructing a totally correct anonymous leader election protocol using this state. This result, which contradicts the previous necessity result of D'Hondt and Panangaden, furthers our understanding of how non-local quantum states can be used as a resource for distributed computation.

Published: March 2021

There are no data available regarding the bronchospasmolytic activity and toxicity of water extract of Coptosapelta flavescens Korth root (WECFR). Therefore, this study aimed to determine: a. the in vitro tracheospasmolytic effect of WECFR; b. safety of WECFR using the brine shrimp lethality test (BSLT) and immobilization of Daphnia magna larvae (IDL). In study, a guinea pig tracheal ring was contracted with methacholine and cumulative doses of WECFR solution were administered. A dose-response curve (DRC) was plotted of the percentage of the tracheal ring relaxation response. To test whether the relaxation mechanism occured through stimulation of beta2-adrenergic receptors, the tracheal ring was incubated with propranolol. Data analyzed using analysis of variance, showed that the DRC of WECFR was obtained with p < 0.05 compared to the DRC of control, indicating that WECFR had a tracheospasmolytic effect. The DRC for propranolol-blocked WECFR did not shift to the right compared to the DRC of WECFR, confirming that the relaxation mechanism did not occur through the beta2-adrenergic receptors. Study b. assessed safety using BSLT and IDL. After exposing the larvae to WECFR and control for 24 and 48 h, respectively, the number of dead larvae was counted. Data analyzed using Probit program, showed that the lethal dose 50 of WECFR towards Artemia salina and Daphnia magna larvae was > 1000 ppm, which means that it was not toxic. This studies demonstrate that WECFR exhibits tracheospasmolitic effect, but not through beta2-adrenergic receptors; WECFR is safe for Artemia salina and Daphnia magna larvae.

Establishing Connection Methods for Precast Concrete Shear Wall
Authors: Gerry Vanda Trivana , Alexander Gerald
Published: February 2021

Following rapid economic development, many countries have realized the necessity for the development of prefabricated construction. Therefore, it is predicted that the development of prefabricated concrete structure has become an increasingly important domain. In practical applications, the connection construction of precast components is complex, which is reflected in the need to pour concrete or grouting at the joint. Owning to that, the prefabricated concrete structure still belongs to the assembly monolithic structure to a large extent. Low assembly rate and high cost, both factors found to limit the prefabricated concrete structure, are important factors in widespread promotion. In addition, the prefabricated concrete shear wall structure is an important part of the prefabricated concrete structure, with good structural integrity and high rigidity at the joint region. However, for fabricated concrete shear wall structures, the wall structure is usually prefabricated in the factory, which not only resulted in transportation problems, and also difficulties pertaining to the construction standardization. Without doubt, it is imperative to study the prefabricated concrete structure with lower cost, simpler structure, convenient connection and good comprehensive performance, so as to promote the development of residential industrialization. Undoubtedly, reinforcement connection technology is one of the key technologies of prefabricated concrete structure. The joint is often the weakest link of the whole structure. The reliable connection between the prefabricated components can effectively guarantee the integrity and seismic performance of the structure. This paper shed some light on the precast concrete shear wall common connection methods.

Global trends in the pension sector show that a funded pension, in addition to a pay-as-you-go component, increases the reliability of pension protection for retired people and improves the stability of the pension system. The article analyzes the main directions of reforms of both distribution and funded components. The common features of the considered pension systems are the presence of several levels and their effective interaction as well as the expansion of the role of accumulative pension systems. Reforms related to increasing the population coverage with accumulative pension plans are among the most common ones in the framework of the analysis. The main directions for improving the Russian funded pension system are highlighted, among which the voluntary payment of contributions and the ability to set the desired amount of contributions are the main components of the proposed changes, based on the analysis of international experience in reforming pension systems.

The article is devoted to the development of instruments for catastrophe risk financing. The state of the global market for disaster risk financing is analyzed in order to identify the main development trends and the possibilities of using conceptual approaches in the Russian practice of the financial market. It is proven that the development of the catastrophe bond market has prospects in conditions of permanent instability, since catastrophe bonds are unique and highly attractive due to the lack of correlation with macroeconomic events. It is suggested that the instruments of catastrophe risk financing can be considered in the context of the development of sustainable finance. The paper identifies the main problems slowing down the development of the Russian catastrophe bond market, and formulates proposals aimed at developing the market for insurance-linked securities (ILS) in the Russian Federation. Pilot CAT bonds emission prospectuses should be based on structured bonds, with elements of a subordinated bond. There is a need to introduce into the Russian legal field a term defining ILS as a category. It is proposed to register special purpose vehicles (SPVs) and catastrophe funds in Russian offshores. The Russian analogue of catastrophe funds should be a closed-end investment fund with high funding for qualified investors. It is proposed to update the formula for calculating the creation of and the procedure for using reserve funds, in particular with the use of catastrophe risk financing tools. A pilot issue of CAT bonds is proposed to be conducted on behalf of VEB.RF, as bonds sponsoring regions exposed to high natural risks. In the process of developing socially responsible investor practice and tools for socially responsible investments, it is suggested to establish a Russian “Green Index” and to create green ETFs in Russia. Due diligence (DD) approaches are recommended for decisions on issuing catastrophe bonds.
GAPT is differentially expressed in lymph node metastasis in human breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: February 2021

Metastasis to the brain is a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (1-3). Between the breast and the brain reside the secondary lymphoid organ, the lymph nodes. We mined published microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with lymph node metastasis in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that GRB2-binding adaptor protein, transmembrane, encoded by GAPT, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the lymph node metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. GAPT mRNA was present at increased quantities in lymph node metastatic tissues as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Expression of GAPT in primary tumors was significantly correlated with patient overall survival in lymph node positive patients but not in lymph node negative patients. Modulation of GAPT expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the lymph node in humans with metastatic breast cancer.

Background: The emerging Three-dimensional (3D) modelling improves intraoperative visualization, management, and analysis of available imaging data, the 3D form of available image, provides the surgeon with a better comprehension of the geometry, size, and exact relationship between target and normal tissue. The role of 3D modelling in orthopedic pelvic and hip surgical planning is brought to focus.Methods: The Medline database was searched using the keywords 3D printing, three dimensional printing, 3 dimensional printing and the results were screened for pelvis and hip surgery related full text articles. The duplicates and non-related articles were removed.Results: The articles were used to build a review with focus on Acetabulum, Pelvis, Hip and sacrum. We found that the role of 3D printing is non-negligible. The advances made with the help of 3D printing are wonderful and promising. The use of 3D saw its application in many fields. But the orthopedic surgery to our observance has benefitted the most till now.Conclusions: With the advances in the technology it is needed to make the 3D modelling easier, quicker, accurate, cost effective and reliable to help implement its deeper use in orthopedics. The authors believe that the 3D printing is an enormous help for the orthopedic surgeons which will only lead to positive outcomes.
Masking, crowding and grouping: Connecting low and mid-level vision

An important task for vision science is to build a unitary framework of low and mid-level vision. As a step on this way, our study examined differences and commonalities between masking, crowding and grouping – three processes that occur through spatial interactions between neighbouring elements. We measured contrast thresholds as functions of inter-element spacing and eccentricity for Gabor detection, discrimination, contour integration, using a common stimulus grid consisting of 9 Gabor elements. From these thresholds, we derived a) the baseline contrast necessary to perform each task and b) the spatial extent over which task performance was stable. This spatial window can be taken as an indicator of field size, where elements that fall within a putative field are readily combined. We found that contrast thresholds were universally modulated by inter-element distance, with a shallower and inverted effect for grouping compared to masking and crowding. Baseline contrasts for detecting stimuli and discriminating their properties were positively linked across the tested retinal locations (parafovea and near periphery), whereas those for integrating elements and discriminating their properties were negatively linked. Meanwhile, masking and crowding spatial windows remained uncorrelated across eccentricity, although they were correlated across participants. This suggests that the computation performed by each type of visual field operates over different distances that co-varies across observers, but not across retinal locations. Contrast-processing units may thus lie at the core of the shared idiosyncrasies across tasks reported in many previous studies, despite the fundamental differences in the extent of their spatial windows.

On March 2, 2020, the Ministry of Health announced four confirmed cases of COVID-19 with travel history. The health departments in Iraqi Kurdistan started to identify and monitor all individuals considered with close contact with confirmed COVID-19 patients. An individual who returned to the Sebiran community (in Erbil) from Iran on February 16, 2020, without announcing the authorities and later was tested positive for the coronavirus. The asymptomatic person behaved normally with other persons as a healthy person since his return. The health authorities reported that by March 24, 2020, 15 persons of this community had been affected among the first 200 tests. The confirmed cases were his wife and son (5 years old), neighbors who had close contact with the confirmed case, persons with household exposure, and community members with indirect contact with the case. The strict lockdown and curfew were applied to the Sebiran community for 14 days. Following March 24, 2020, no positive case was identified among the performed cases in the community. Accordingly, on 5/4/2020, the quarantine of the community was lifted. The success of the KRG is summarized in: timely quarantine, active surveillance/active symptom monitoring, and social distancing.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 05 No. 03 July’21 Page: 355-357
